127
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 2: It's compared to it.

128
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 5: Child, Right, you know this, guys, you've been acting up,

129

Speaker 5: doesn't mean you don't have to still set the table.

130
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 2: That's gotta be mar I'm a year older than you, sir.

131
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,160
Speaker 2: I'm stay on that side, all right.

132
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, big news tonight, We're what three minutes away from

133
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 7: tip off, Jason Tatum making his triumphant return to the

134
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 7: floor in Boston, about ten and a half months removed

135
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 7: from tearing his achilles in the playoffs. According to ESPN's

136
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 7: George Saddano, Tatum not only is he gonna play tonight,

137
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 7: he is gonna start and there is reportedly no minutes restriction.

138
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 7: JT is full go for the Boston Celtics. You got

139
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 7: a problem with this, huh?

140
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 5: Listen, I'm just saying the way that the conversation around

141
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 5: this has been presented, I think is missing, like such

142
00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 5: a major part of it.

143
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 2: And it go back to the way that.

144
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 5: You get introduced to people, like when you get hired

145
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 5: in as like the janitor. Very rarely are you coming

146
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 5: in as the CEO. And for whatever reason, basketball reasons,

147
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 5: all types of reasons. Jason Tatum has been since the

148
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 5: moment he walked into Boston has been deemed as the guy.

149
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 2: Really, you know what it was when he.

150
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 5: Dunked on Lebron in that Game six in the Eastern

151
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 5: Conference playoffs in his rookie year, and ever since then,

152
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 5: it's been Jason Tatum is the guy. So I'm not mad,

153
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 5: and I think what he's done in terms of rehabbing,

154
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 5: in terms of coming back. Look two hundred and ninety

155
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 5: eight days ago, it says that Tatum tore his achilles

156
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 5: and he was able to come back, and like that

157
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 5: is a testament to his body's furthought that he would

158
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 5: be a year testament to his work ethic, all of

159
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 5: that is incredible. However, this is the thing that I

160
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 5: find to be fascinating is the Boston Celtics right now.

161
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 5: Had Jason Tatum played this entire season, you wouldn't have

162
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 5: said that they could be much better than they are

163
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 5: right now in terms of win losses, in terms of

164
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 5: state in the East, that their second or third in

165
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 5: the East. Have been one of the best teams in

166
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 5: the Eastern Conference all year. Right, maybe they're the one

167
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 5: seasons out of the two seed. But Jalen Brown has

168
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 5: the second highest uses rate. He was the Finals MVP

169
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 5: last year. He is an MVP candidate this year has

170
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 5: played a ton of games. Like I get that the

171
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 5: MVP candidacy is like the sixty five game thing, but

172
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 5: you know what that also means that Jalen Brown's been

173
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 5: available and he's been the guy. And now hearing the

174
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,119
Speaker 5: report from Saddano, like Rob g just said that Jason

175
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 5: Tatum is walking into the starting lineup with no minutes restriction,

176
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 5: makes it seem that the conversation around it teems off

177
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 5: to me because the common refrain Rob has been, well,

178
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 5: if you can get seventy percent of Jason Tatum, the

179
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 5: Celtics are gonna be that much better. If you can

180
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 5: get Jason Tatum, he's just gonna stand in the corner

181
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 5: and shoot threes.

182
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 2: If you're gonna get the Jason Tatum that's gonna be.

183
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 5: Comfortable being a role player, then everything's gonna be fine.

184
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 5: What I have felt about Jason Tatum and I think

185
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 5: if you asked Jason Tatum, he will tell you he

186
00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:58,439
Speaker 5: has no.

187
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 2: Interest in being a role player.

188
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 5: He has very's very into his legacy in terms of

189
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 5: he wants to look in terms of how he deems

190
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 5: himself losing the finals MVP or not winning the Finals MVP.

191
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 5: I know took a shot to him because you can

192
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 5: see it and when he talks to it, and this

193
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 5: is a guy rob to put a pin in it.

194
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 5: He clearly cares about NBA legacy because when he won

195
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 5: the championship, he did all of the you know, anything

196
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 5: is possible, did the Kobe picture, all of the pictures

197
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 5: and all of the moments that he saw from NBA

198
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 5: legends of his childhood. He relived them with the trophy.

199
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 5: You're not telling me that this guy's not coming back

200
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 5: trying to win a Finals MVP this year. And I

201
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 5: think that when you have a Batman in Robins situation

202
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 5: like it has been in Boston since the arrival of

203
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 5: Jason Tatum and now all of a sudden, Batman's been

204
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 5: out for a year and Robin has been fighting crime

205
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,880
Speaker 5: just as well, you know, like that's it, And now

206
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 5: I just think it's tough. It can be a tough

207
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 5: situation for everybody to come back and be copoesthetic with

208
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 5: Ason Tan coming back and taking the exact same role

209
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 5: that he used to have.

210
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 4: I totally disagree, and I'm gonna say this, whenever you

211
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 4: can add talent to your team and your roster as

212
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 4: you try to make a chance at a climb to

213
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 4: try to get to an NBA championship.

214
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 2: I don't see why you wouldn't.

215
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 4: And this is not coming back to the same team

216
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 4: because they got rid of a lot of veterans al Horford,

217
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 4: they traded Porzingis, they got rid of people, and he's

218
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 4: coming back and a lot of young guys have been

219
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 4: able to plug up the boat. And you're right, Jalen

220
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 4: Brown should be considered for the MVP because everybody rode

221
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 4: off the Celtics. And even if Tatum didn't win, he

222
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 4: didn't win the NBA Finals MVP, but he led the

223
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 4: team in every step the big major category for the

224
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 4: NBA Finals, So he didn't win it, but he was

225
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 4: a big contributor and let it every single major category.

226
00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 2: People can look it up.

227
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 4: It was weird that he didn't win it, but he

228
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:07,400
Speaker 4: was a major factor. You always add talent. They have

229
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 4: to know what he feels like, and they have to

230
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 4: believe that he can just go out there and play

231
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 4: and he doesn't have to come in and start off

232
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 4: the bench. If they believe he's put in the work

233
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,319
Speaker 4: and he's completely healthy to go.

234
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 2: Out and start and play and just play.

235
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 4: Then that's where they are on this I gotta believe

236
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 4: that they're not gonna rush the guy out there for

237
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 4: no reason. No, and you say that they can't be

238
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 4: better their second, they're not first. The Pistons are first.

239
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 4: The Pistons have a five game lead. I don't know

240
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,319
Speaker 4: how you don't welcome back a player of this caliber

241
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 4: to a young team that overachieved all year. And now

242
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 4: the reinforcements have come. Now the calvarry has come, and

243
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 4: now they can acquiesce and get back into like a like, oh,

244
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 4: he's gonna mess up everything.

245
00:11:58,240 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 2: No no, no, no no.

246
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 4: The game plan was him and Jalen Brown and the

247
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 4: other people, and now that he's back, those other players

248
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 4: will have to adjust around those two, those two players.

249
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 4: To me a healthy Jason Tatum, I'm swinging away from

250
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,040
Speaker 4: the Knicks. I'm swinging away from the Pistons. I'm swinging

251
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 4: away from the Cavaliers. I say they are the favorites

252
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,679
Speaker 4: to come out of the East if he's stay sealthy

253
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:29,120
Speaker 4: and just.

254
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 2: Plays with what they've done.

255
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 4: So I totally understand it because the only reason they

256
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 4: lost to the Knicks. If you remember the first two games,

257
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 4: they blew double digits fourth quarter leads, and they shot

258
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 4: horrendous from three point That can never happen again. I

259
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 4: don't care what basketball team you're talking about. In the postseason,

260
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 4: they missed seventy five out of one hundred shots, and

261
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 4: they lost those two games to the you know, lost

262
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 4: those games to the Knicks that turn that series around.

263
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 4: They'll never do that again. They're the favorites in the

264
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 4: East with Jason Tatum. Without Jason Tatum, they're not the

265
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 4: favorites in the East. So I don't know what the

266
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:08,839
Speaker 4: conversation with. So that's my point.

267
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 5: It's that is the common refrain, and I don't disagree

268
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,720
Speaker 5: with Obviously, if you could add a guy who's been

269
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 5: fourteen first time All NBA, you should, right. I'm not

270
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,680
Speaker 5: saying that this is a bad thing or anything for

271
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 5: the Boston Celtics. I'm saying just in terms of, like

272
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 5: on a basketball fit, of course, if we're playing video games,

273
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 5: of course, But these are people, and Jalen Brown is

274
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 5: a guy who from my eye, it looks like he

275
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 5: has taken a back seat for the entirety of his

276
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 5: NBA career, and even when you go to the Olympics,

277
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 5: didn't make the Olympic team. For Jason Tatum to go

278
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,719
Speaker 5: and sit on the bench, like I think that there

279
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,840
Speaker 5: is a level of Jalen Brown says, I have not

280
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 5: gotten the amount of credit and respect in this league

281
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 5: that is worthy of a player of my stature. And

282
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 5: part of the reason why is because Jayson tatums right

283
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 5: on my same team. I'm just saying it's something to

284
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 5: look out for because I don't I don't think that

285
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 5: the Boston Celtics now, all of a sudden.

286
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 2: Are just the odds on favorite.

287
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 5: I have to see Tatum come back and be himself

288
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 5: first before I can feel good about that.

289
00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 4: I don't know. Just Tatum, when you think about became

290
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 4: just a sixth player in NBA history to lead a

291
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 4: team to a championship, and he led the team in points, rebounds,

292
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 4: and assist in the postseason. Doesn't happen all the time.

293
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 4: I know he didn't win the MVP, so a lot

294
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 4: of people want to discount it. But when you do

295
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 4: that and you're the sixth player all time in the

296
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 4: league's been around for a million years, all right, eight seven,

Speaker 4: seven ninety nine on Fox, we want to hear from you,

299
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 4: does he actually make them the favorites in the East

300
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 4: Like I think, we want to hear from you eight

301

Speaker 6: Nineteen eighty three?

337
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 2: Okay, so that was right out that That was right after.

338
00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 8: High school, your second year covering the league, right, yeah,

339
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 8: look nineteen eighty seven. Oh okay, don't don't age me

340
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 8: that much, all right, eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.

341
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 8: Don't forget Henry McKenna from Fox Sports. He's an NFL reporter.

342
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 8: He's going to join us at the bottom of the hour.

343
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:02,000
Speaker 8: But first, Martin up. Martin's not that jiggy with it.

344
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,160
Speaker 8: Thinks that Tatum's return could mess things up for Boston.

345
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 8: I'm not going to paint you into a box. I

346
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 8: think it's a great thing, and I think it makes

347
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 8: them the favorites in the East.

348
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 2: Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, we want to

349
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:13,919
Speaker 2: hear from you.

350
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 5: Let's go to Woody Intera. Say, Woody, you're on the

351
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 5: eye couple Fox Sports Radio.

352
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 9: Hey, what is the seventh I think also that Tatum's

353
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 9: return makes Boston the favorite of the East. Now, of

354
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,959
Speaker 9: course it's not. I mean, if he gets injured, you know,

355
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 9: just all is being said, if he's healthy, oh yeah, fact.

356
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's got to be healthy, right, no doubt about.

357
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 9: I'm with you, But I think your co host here,

358
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,720
Speaker 9: you know, we're fart with Jalen Brown. The wording in it,

359
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 9: he's been a victim of because the guy said Jalen

360
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 9: Brown has taken a back seat, you know, as a favorite.

361
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 9: I guess he's trying to say to Tatum. But the

362
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 9: fact is he didn't. He's never took in the back seat.

363
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 9: He's just been giving a back seat through media and narratives,

364
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 9: you know what I mean. So if Tatum gets injured,

365
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 9: it's not his fault right, and he just goes out

366
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 9: and play. If people choose Tatum over him on one

367
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 9: of the most travesty is taking Dereck White over him

368
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 9: like there's nothing he can do. I think he should

369
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 9: be saluted that he went out and just kept praying.

370
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 9: You know what I mean?

371
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 4: I agree, I agree because everybody wrote them all for

372
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 4: this season.

373
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 2: You know that they got rid of all the veterans.

374
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 4: They were like, okay, we'll just take a flyer we'll

375
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:29,879
Speaker 4: put on this season.

376
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 9: And they still had him written off until this prior

377
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 9: news that Tatum's coming back, the boss is pretty good.

378
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 5: But see, that's my point though, that's my point. What

379
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 5: he is that this team is forty one and twenty

380
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 5: one second in the East, and nobody in America until

381
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 5: yes I should say nobody in America, but until yesterday,

382
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 5: nobody was talking about how the Celtics for a prohibitive

383
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 5: favorite in the East.

384
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,159
Speaker 2: The East was wide open.

385
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:57,199
Speaker 5: All of a sudden, Jason Tatum can come back, and

386
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 5: it's like, oh, no other prohibitive favorites. When I got

387
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,360
Speaker 5: a guy who is the third pick in the draft

388
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,439
Speaker 5: has been to every conference finals. Jason Tatum has been

389
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 5: to Jalen Brown was right there like that.

390
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 4: But you're adding a guy who in the playoffs only

391
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 4: the sixth player of all time to do it the

392
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 4: leading and points.

393
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:19,920
Speaker 2: I mean, but you're acting like that doesn't matter.

394
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 5: I'm not pooling any of them. This is not nothing

395
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:29,840
Speaker 5: is anti Jason Tatum. But like what saying was, and

396
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 5: that's how it goes there.

397
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 4: It's it's uh, it's Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones.

398
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 4: That's that's it's it's Diana Ross and the Supremes. Somebody's

399
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 4: out front. But what's Michael Jackson and the Jackson Five?

400
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:43,199
Speaker 2: All right?

401
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 5: But what happened if Michael Jackson couldn't sing for a

402
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,400
Speaker 5: year and a half and all of a sudden Tito's

403
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:48,360
Speaker 5: records got.

404
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 4: More but they didn't get but they didn't get more

405
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:55,119
Speaker 4: SPA because they're not first. They're not leading that second.

406
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 4: They're not first. If there was first, maybe you'd have

407
00:19:57,520 --> 00:19:59,919
Speaker 4: a better argument. But they're not even first the second

408
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 4: five games.

409
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 5: Out right there atop of the Eastern they were with Jason.

410
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 2: We'll go seven ninety nine on foughts, go to.

411
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:11,360
Speaker 5: Andre in Massachusetts on the ground out there in near Boston,

412
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 5: on the common world they're in the odd couple.

413
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,200
Speaker 2: What you got, how you doing?

414
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 10: Thanks for taking the call. Yeah, well we're parking the

415
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:23,880
Speaker 10: cars tonight and a lot of the night man's.

416
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 9: A wicked tits wacked pitta.

417
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,120
Speaker 10: You know that he was out and now he's back

418
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 10: in the mixing. So yeah, the fans here are exuberant

419
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 10: and feeling that the winds at our back.

420
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 9: Now.

421
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 10: Listen, you know, in terms of this dynamic d or combination,

422
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,440
Speaker 10: why can't they be Butch Cassidy and the Sun Dance

423
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 10: Kid And what I mean What I mean by that

424
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,719
Speaker 10: is the Celtics. They do have a strong culture and

425
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 10: these guys came into the league together and they're both

426
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,399
Speaker 10: drafted by the Celtics, developed by the Celtics. It is

427
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 10: true their personalities are different. Okay, it's not the same

428
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 10: as Steph and Klay Thompson, you know, where they're finishing

429
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 10: each other sentences, hanging out all the time off the court,

430
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 10: But there is a mutual respect and they understand how

431
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 10: to play together effectively. And so I do feel this

432
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 10: makes the Celtics the favorites in the Eastern Conference because

433
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 10: the Pistons are the new kids on the block. You

434
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,359
Speaker 10: don't know what you don't know, and so they're gonna

435
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 10: need to experience what it's like to be in these

436
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 10: high leverage games. I think they can make a conference semifinals,

437
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 10: maybe even break through to the conference finals, but they

438
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 10: haven't been on that level yet. That's why I give

439
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 10: the edge the Celtics. I don't think that makes the

440
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 10: favorites in the league, but this is a very dangerous

441
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 10: team now that Tatum is back and he's in the mix,

442
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 10: and they have the weapons and the depth. Now took

443
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 10: a pete for a championship, thanks Tech Nicole.

444
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 4: No doubt and then Martin. The other thing too is

445
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 4: Jalen Brown. You know you hurts yourself too because he's

446
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 4: too busy putting uh hair a die on everybody's uniform

447
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 4: in the NBA. I mean that's the bad blocks.

448
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 2: Look, he's trying to leave his mark. He can't even

449
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,880
Speaker 2: leave it mark.

450
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,280
Speaker 5: He said, why can't they be Butch Cassidy and the

451
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 5: Sundance Kids. Did the Sundance kid know he could never

452
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 5: be Butch Cassidy?

453
00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 2: Do you know what I'm saying? Like, did Robin know

454
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,719
Speaker 2: he could never be? Batman? But it's all that's framed

455
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 2: right now. And I don't know if that's the case.

456
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:05,959
Speaker 2: It's the odd couple.

457
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 5: Maybe you should have left got them going to a

458
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:09,480
Speaker 5: smallst city and taking that one over.

459
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:10,320

00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 11: I'm good. What's up Martin? Here?

471
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 2: I'm doing good man. A lot of stuff going on

472
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:45,879
Speaker 2: keeping you busy?

473
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:46,239
Speaker 11: I know.

474
00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,560
Speaker 4: I want to start with the Taylor Decker asking the

475
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 4: lines to be released after ten years?

476
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 2: What do you make of that? Is he going to Chicago?

477
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 4: Is there some some Ben Johnson juice going on?

478
00:22:57,840 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 2: What's happening?

479
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 11: Yeah? I mean I imagine it's things like this often

480
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 11: have to do with money, right, and so I imagine,

481
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,959
Speaker 11: you know, things weren't quite working out with that with

482
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 11: that contract situation. And so he decided he wanted to leave. Ultimately,

483
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 11: I think it actually says something interesting about the Lions, right,

484
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 11: Like the Lions used to be the offense that nobody

485
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 11: wanted to leave. And as you noted, Ben Johnson's gone,

486
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 11: as we saw at the end of the year, like

487
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 11: that offense didn't quite look like it had the juice

488
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:37,919
Speaker 11: that it once had. And yeah, and so I you know,

489
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,920
Speaker 11: it's notable when a tackle wants to deveil and doesn't

490
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 11: want to take a pay cut or doesn't want to

491
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,400
Speaker 11: accept the salary that he's got just to play with

492
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 11: what was once the most explosive and exciting offensive in

493
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 11: the league and is now just sort of middle of

494
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 11: the pack.

495
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 2: Quarterback Malik Willis is like the bell of the ball.

496
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 2: What'd you talk about Willis? Well that it's kind of

497
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:02,239
Speaker 2: how I feel about it.

498
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 5: Like if Malik Willis was the pretvious girl of the dance,

499
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 5: I'm definitely going home by myself. But it doesn't seem

500
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 5: like the NFL teams are going to be in that bow.

501
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 5: Where do you think Malik Willis ends up? And at

502
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 5: what number do you think it's.

503
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 2: Going to be at?

504
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 11: Yeah, guys, I am I am so guilty here because

505
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 11: I'm totally enamored with Malik Willis. I understand that he

506
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 11: I think that the like current pervading statistic around him

507
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 11: is this. It's set like when you cut off the

508
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 11: screen passes and sort of like the junk plays and

509
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 11: the gimmicks and the checkdowns. He's only thrown twenty eight

510
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,959
Speaker 11: passes downfield, and so like, you know, he could end

511
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 11: up making one million per drop back that he's ever

512
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 11: thrown for the for the Packers.

513
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 6: Good work, you get it.

514
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 11: So, yeah, exactly, So it's like, based on the twenty

515
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,800
Speaker 11: eight you know, passes he for Downfield last year, he's

516
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 11: going to make twenty eight per year at his next home.

517
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 11: I know it sounds crazy, I really do. I think

518
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 11: like that, you know, somewhere between twenty five probably probably

519
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 11: about twenty five million a year, which was north of

520
00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 11: what Justin Fields made with the Jets last year. Obviously

521
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 11: that didn't.

522
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 2: End well, well, that was a bad one, right there,

523
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 2: no doubt.

524
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 11: Yeah, but it'll be south of where you know, guys

525
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:25,119
Speaker 11: like Daniel Jones and Sam Darnold and obviously Baker Mayfield.

526
00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 11: This sort of like other journeyman types that have gone

527
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,400
Speaker 11: on to cashing in other places. And that's because it'll

528
00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 11: remind you sort of like, you know, maybe this is

529
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 11: a deep cut for people, But remember when Matt Slinn loses,

530
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 11: you know, signed a lot of money with Seattle after

531
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 11: barely playing behind Aaron Rodgers.

532
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,359
Speaker 4: But do you remember that the Lions got him paid

533
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 4: because you do six touchdowns the last game of the

534
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 4: year against the Lion.

535
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 11: Actly. Yeah, So this is similar where you've got to,

536
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:56,120
Speaker 11: you know, back up not coincidentally in Green Bay because

537
00:25:56,160 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 11: they have a really good system there of developing quarterbacks,

538
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 11: and you know he's going to pash in. I just

539
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 11: think the thing about Mike Wells I really like is

540
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 11: that you go back to his draft profile. Tracy got

541
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:16,400
Speaker 11: like athletic, really impressive arm, good enough measurables in terms

542
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 11: of height and weight, and excellent speed. So you have

543
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,120
Speaker 11: a guy that has upside. He goes to the Titans

544
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 11: and obviously he doesn't succeed because they don't know how

545
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,680
Speaker 11: to develop a quarterback. But he goes to Green Bay

546
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 11: where Lafleur teaches him how to manage games, how to

547
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 11: run an offense, how to not be rash, and how

548
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 11: to make good decisions and how to keep your team

549
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 11: in a position to win. And so maybe he didn't

550
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:45,000
Speaker 11: look like the most incredible quarterback and maybe there's such

551
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 11: a small sample size that we don't know. But I

552
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 11: just think if he is good, if he is as

553
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,959
Speaker 11: good as we think he was, albeit in twenty eight

554
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 11: four twenty eight downfield throws, if that can project to

555
00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 11: a bigger sample, then it's worth twenty five million, you know,

556
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 11: and especially if you can figure out how to make

557
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 11: it look like seventy five million, uh when you announced

558
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 11: the deal and then you look at the closure details

559
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 11: and it's really only twenty five or forty guaranteed over

560
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 11: the first two years. So it is ultimately kind of

561
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 11: like a Justin Fields deal at like it's really at

562
00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 11: its bones, but you maybe make it look bigger at

563
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,679
Speaker 11: first announcement, so everybody feels good about how big and

564
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 11: impressive it is.

565
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,520
Speaker 2: So just what do you think you wind up where?

566
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 11: I So there's there's the realistic option, which is which

567
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:39,439
Speaker 11: is Arizona. Obviously, uh, Lafleur's brother just got hired as

568
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 11: the head coach there. So if there's anybody.

569
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 2: That's why the NFL stands for nepotism, we'll go ahead, one.

570
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:53,640
Speaker 11: Yeah, the Shanahan's, Belichick's the Lafleur's now so the yeah,

571
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:58,400
Speaker 11: so Matt Lafleur, his little brother's Mike. Mike's the new

572
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 11: head coach in Arizona. So if there's anyone that's going

573
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 11: to give like a detailed recommendation and make Mike comfortable paying,

574
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 11: you know what is more than necessary for a guy

575
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 11: that has such a small Staples eye. Matt has seen

576
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 11: behind the scenes the much greater Staples size, which is like,

577
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 11: who is this guy? What's he like a practice? What's

578
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 11: he like in the media room? Is he going to

579
00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:21,840
Speaker 11: be the kind of guy you want to sign to

580
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 11: a bigger deal and take that risk? So if anyone's

581
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 11: going to give a good referral, it's an honest one.

582
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 11: It's from brother to brother. The other name the other

583
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,480
Speaker 11: team that I think would be interesting, mostly to me,

584
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 11: but hopefully to the team themselves is the Steelers, and

585
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,720
Speaker 11: I think that you put him in with a McCarthy offense,

586
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 11: you put him in with a DK metcalf and a

587
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 11: Jalen Warren, you can kind of defeat because Willis has

588
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 11: impressive mobility, you can kind of defeat some of the

589
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 11: shortcomings on the offensive line, although that still does need

590
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 11: to be addressed, but we've got the off season to

591
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 11: do it. I like the Steelers just organizationally too, Like

592
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 11: you can't underestimate a functional company setting you up to

593
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 11: succeed versus a dysfunctional company, and those exist within the NFL.

594
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 11: Like the Packers are a super functional company, quote unquote,

595
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 11: the Steelers are a super functional company. The Browns, the Cardinals,

596
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 11: and the Titans are not right. So Willis has scene

597
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 11: one already, the Titans, He's seen another that's functional Packers.

598
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 11: I'd like him to make a good decision, a smart decision,

599
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 11: go to an organization that can actually set him up

600
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 11: to succeed. To me, that's more than Steelers. But I

601
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 11: can understand why he might want to go get that

602
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 11: bag and he might want to go to the Cardinals.

603
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 5: That Henry McKenna here on the Odd Couples Fox Sports

604
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,560
Speaker 5: National NFL writer, I got what quick one for you,

605
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 5: because you just said about the functional and dysfunctional organizations

606
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 5: in the NFL. Raiders haven't won one playoff game or

607
00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 5: only made the playoff one since two thousand and two.

608
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 2: And I heard Mike Shilver today on Dan Patrick's show.

609
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 5: Saying that Alex Guerrero has like kind of an outsized

610
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 5: influence in the locker room or in the organization because

611
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 5: Brady's not there on a day to day basis, and

612
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 5: it feels like Guerrero is kind of like a pipeline

613
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 5: to Brady and it's one of the reasons that Max

614
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 5: wants out.

615
00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 2: Max Crosby wants out.

616
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 5: And I found that fascinating that Crosby, who has kind

617
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,240
Speaker 5: of been quote unquote this raider for life, has seen

618
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 5: a ton of dysfunction in Vegas and is now apparently

619
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 5: according to Mike Silver and other reports that he's going

620
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 5: to be traded within the week. That like, now, this

621
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 5: is like the final straw. What do you make of that?

622
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 11: Yeah, the straw that breaks the camel's back, right, this

623
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 11: is this is I mean, I was privy to the

624
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 11: dysfunction in New England where Guerrero had a roll in

625
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 11: New England, and it was you know, to this day,

626
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 11: I think people still debate like how substantial was his role,

627
00:30:56,240 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 11: Like how much of a point of this function was

628
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 11: he was he creating problems between Belichick and Brady? Did

629
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 11: Belichick dislike him so far as we know, and as

630
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 11: was sort of like reported way back when by Seth

631
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 11: Wickersham by ESPN. You know, Guerrero created problems in New

632
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 11: England and and sort of necessitated Uh. Eventually he was like,

633
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 11: not really on the facility anymore, but if you talk

634
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 11: to players, you know. Brian Hoyer, former Patriots back up

635
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 11: tweeted about it. I think a few days ago. Hoyer

636
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 11: was like, when I was in New England and he

637
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 11: said Vegas, which surprising because I don't actually know what

638
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 11: the timeline was with that. But when Hoyer was in

639
00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 11: New England, he said, like players were fighting to get

640
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 11: time with Guerrera, uh, and that and that they often,

641
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 11: you know, always walked away from a session with Guerrero

642
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 11: feeling better than when they entered it. So, you know,

643
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,719
Speaker 11: to to some degree, it's like he's successful at what

644
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 11: he does on a player by player basis, But is

645
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 11: he creating like a macro point of tension with an

646
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 11: organizations from like, you know, year to year?

647
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 2: Right?

648
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 11: Both things could be.

649
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,000

Speaker 4: Let's get to the Let's get to the Lakers and

708
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 4: Lebron James rob g last night watching that video, Martin,

709
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:50,080
Speaker 4: you saw it. Lebron James folds down right and he's

710
00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 4: acting like he heard I don't know what shoulder was first,

711
00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 4: which one did.

712
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:58,360
Speaker 2: He grab the right? It was his right elbow right.

713
00:35:59,040 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 4: But then when when they came to get him, he

714
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:06,360
Speaker 4: switched elbows to the left. And now he's out tonight

715
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,719
Speaker 4: like I just when you watch it. I don't know

716
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 4: if Lebron knows how the world is set up now,

717
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:17,120
Speaker 4: but there's cameras everywhere in angles and none of it

718
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 4: makes sense to me. I don't understand why dis late

719
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 4: in the game, you're still faking like which where you

720
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,680
Speaker 4: got hurd? Or I get it, you missed the shot,

721
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,840
Speaker 4: the referee didn't call it. I'm gonna go down and

722
00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 4: scream and I'm heard, but you grab one elbow first

723
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 4: and then and then the other elbow.

724
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,960
Speaker 2: What is this? I'm not gonna lie.

725
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,880
Speaker 5: I was sitting at the update desk last night and

726
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 5: for about fifteen to twenty seconds, I was like, is

727
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 5: this real now?

728
00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 2: It was not on first fall? On first fall, I

729
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 2: was like, get up right.

730
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 5: But also, ironically enough, ifs Jason Tatum makes his debut

731
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 5: two enty ninety eight days after playing, I thought Tatum

732
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 5: was faking the first time he when he went down

733
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:03,960
Speaker 5: with dculous on first glance. Then they go back to

734
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,360
Speaker 5: the second shot and you see Tatum spinning around in

735
00:37:06,360 --> 00:37:09,120
Speaker 5: the circus, like, oh, he's really hurt. When they and

736
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 5: we played it in the play of the day when

737
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 5: they blew when they because they wasn't bleeped in the broadcast,

738
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 5: and Lebron let out an F word that was like got.

739
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:18,760
Speaker 2: Picked up by the camera.

740
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 5: But when you grab the right the cause I know,

741
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,520
Speaker 5: for that moment I was like, oh, no, not like this,

742
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 5: Like I'm thinking he might have really hurt himself, Like

743
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:28,520
Speaker 5: this is not the way I want to see Lebron

744
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 5: go out this year, and then see them come back

745
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,239
Speaker 5: in the game two minutes later, I was just like

746
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,880
Speaker 5: I was mad at myself for for for falling for

747
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 5: I just it's mind boggling to me, Like, do you

748
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,760
Speaker 5: see the videos on social media with all the fakes

749
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:47,719
Speaker 5: where he's grabbing his head and didn't even get hit,

750
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:50,120
Speaker 5: you know, going up for a basket and all this.

751
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 2: It's like it's over and over.

752
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 4: There's so many of these videos where Lebron acts like

753
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 4: something happens to him, and I just it doesn't. It

754
00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 4: doesn't bother you that I'm asking you, being Lebron, that

755
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 4: you come off as phony when you do that when

756
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 4: the camera angles clearly say that it doesn't matter. All right,

757
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,240
Speaker 4: Our number two is coming up here on the Odd Couple,

758
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:17,359
Speaker 4: and we got a prediction about one football team and

759
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 4: you'll like it.
