1 00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: Sports Radio May due to a Thursday, It's our one, 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,320 Speaker 1: Dan and The Dane's Dan Patrick Show. Hall of Famer 4 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,039 Speaker 1: Chris Webber will join us coming up in a little bit, 5 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: and big shot Bob Robert or Oreo, seven time NBA 6 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: champ will join us coming up final hour of the program. 7 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,920 Speaker 1: Folks in Los Angeles, you can exhale. Just imagine if 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,480 Speaker 1: Lebron didn't hit that shot last night and it went 9 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: the other way, how would you field today? But that 10 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 1: thirty four foot he was the difference and the Lakers 11 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: went over the Warriors last night. And Lebron said it 12 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,919 Speaker 1: felt good taking that first postseason punch. This is what 13 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: he had to say after his game winner. Well, the 14 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 1: first thing I dad with Case kicked it out and 15 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 1: looked at the shot clock. I saw it was had 16 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 1: to get it up these get up on the round. 17 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: The second thing I saw it was three rams from 18 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: being a Colton isld that previous possession when I drove 19 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: to the hole and then he transition. Well, the thinking 20 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: is now that the Warriors took them to the brink 21 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: in a play in game, so they got to be 22 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 1: ready for the postseason, right, I've been saying all along, 23 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: Clippers didn't want to face the Lakers. I would want 24 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 1: to face them early. I don't want to face them later. 25 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: But now the Phoenix Suns are in the on deck 26 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: circle to face the Lakers. Lebron, you can understand why 27 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: the Laker fans would be a little nervous. If you 28 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: watch last night, James and Anthony Davis started out very cold. 29 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 1: Lakers might need a little time. They move on to 30 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: face the second seated Suns, and the Lakers are going 31 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: to be favorites. But after the play in game, you 32 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: get the feeling anything's possible in the Western Conference playoffs. 33 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:42,479 Speaker 1: I don't think home court advantage is an advantage. Lakers Warriors, 34 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: great prelude. We're going to talk about the play in game, 35 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: and we're going to talk about the play in tournament. 36 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: But you know we're basing this off the results. It 37 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: was Golden State versus the Lakers, it was Lebron versus 38 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: Steph That's why this was interesting. Memphis in San Antonio, 39 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 1: close game, not interesting. Lebron wasn't kidding about taking a punch, 40 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: though he actually took that hit from Draymond Green, but 41 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 1: Now the Lakers, they know how to win in these moments. 42 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,679 Speaker 1: They're a little wobbly, but they're still going to be 43 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: a hard team to knock out. Here's Steph Curry after 44 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 1: witnessing up close and personal Lebron's game winner. It's a 45 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: great shot, broken play. I sunk in thinking you know, 46 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: he was kind of out of play and they found him. 47 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,360 Speaker 1: You got a vallus just in time and knock it down. 48 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: So you know, that's a that's a tough foe because 49 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: you don't really expected to go in. You expected to 50 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: get remount, come down, a transition, have a possession to 51 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: take the lead. But if you know, everything changed when 52 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: it goes in, and you know all the time, great 53 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: players to make great shots, what happens. Yeah, you can't 54 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 1: lose Lebron on the floor, and Steph did. Now it's 55 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: looked like a desperation. Heaved there a thirty four footer 56 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 1: for Steph. That's a good shot for Lebron, desperation shot, yes, 57 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: but it went in. Why is it that when Lebron 58 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: makes these shots that they're not good shots or desperation 59 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: If somebody else does, we oh, yeah, a good shot there. 60 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: If Dame Lillard hits that shot, we go, yeah, that's yes, 61 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: that's that's what Dame does. Steph does that. Lebron hit 62 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: a big shot. Yeah, like it or not, hit a 63 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: big shot, took the big shot there, and now they'll 64 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: move on. They get the Phoenix Suns. As for Golden State, 65 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: Steph Curry was wonderful again last night and now they 66 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: move on. They have to play Memphis and whoever wins 67 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: gets in and faces the Utah Jazz. Watching Golden State 68 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: last night, I know that we sort of have painted 69 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: this picture that it's Steph Curry and nobody else out there. 70 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: First of all, Draymond Greene was controlling the temple of 71 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: the game, believe it or not, and he didn't score 72 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: a field goal. He played wonderful defense on Anthony Davis 73 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: and le Bron James. It really did. Passing the ball, 74 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: rebounding being a nuisance there. Andrew Wiggins played well. There's 75 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: probably a lot of people watch basketball last night who 76 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: haven't been watching basketball, and probably when who is Jordan 77 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: Poole wait? Is that key and Peel wait? Wait? I'm 78 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:24,799 Speaker 1: confused here. Who are these guys? Kent Baysmore? We know Draymond, 79 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: you know Steph, but you know Wiggins was a Timberwolf 80 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: a few years ago, former number one pick in the draft. 81 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: I like how people coming out today saying I told 82 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: you he could play. He's the number one pick in 83 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:41,239 Speaker 1: the draft. He should be able to play. The interesting 84 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: party's only twenty six years of age, and you know, 85 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: maybe they have something there. Maybe you know, Wiseman obviously 86 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: went out their rookie, but maybe they have something there. 87 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 1: But the window of opportunity is probably about two years, 88 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: maybe three years. It feels like, yes, it's always you say, 89 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: maybe they have something. Then if you add Clay, that's 90 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: always a sentence you put in yes. They kept showing 91 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: him last night on the sideline. That looks like is 92 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 1: that a potential champion? Is it the window a championship? 93 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: Wouldn't know for two years. I thought that they would 94 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: compete for the title this year. I thought, with Clay 95 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:23,039 Speaker 1: back with Steph Draymond hoping you got something out of 96 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,599 Speaker 1: Wiseman and that felt like they were starting to find 97 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: a little bit more depth on that team. I thought 98 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 1: that they would compete for the title this year. This 99 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 1: program brought to you by Simply Safe.

You just advanced the 113 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: Warriors into the playoffs. I know the Grizzlies are a 114 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: nice young team, but come on, we gotta see Steph. 115 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: Keep on going and give the Grizzlies a couple of 116 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: years to keep building. There's only so much I can do. 117 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: I can't fix that game. But if you want to 118 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 1: see a game like the old NBA where nobody's shooting threes, 119 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: Memphis and San Antonio last night was boring. John Morant's fun. 120 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 1: But I'm watching the Spurs. Whence the last time you 121 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: watched the Spurs game and you see Greg Popovich and 122 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: he's coaching in sort of a meaningless game, irrelevant team. 123 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: They were thirty three and thirty nine, but he had 124 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 1: about a twenty twenty one twenty two year run where 125 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: Pop was always coaching in meaningful games. But that team 126 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: doesn't shoot threes. Memphis doesn't shoot threes. So when when 127 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: somebody says, oh, too many threes, okay, I'll give you 128 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: not enough threes, because that's what that was. Last night, 129 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: I went not fun and I started wondering. When the 130 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: Spurs lost and Pop walks off the floor, I wondered, 131 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 1: does he coach again? I mean, they're not close to 132 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 1: winning anything. I know he lost his wife recently. I 133 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: don't know how important this is to him. I don't 134 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: know if he wants to turn it over to Becky Hammond. 135 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 1: I don't know, but I got that feeling last night. 136 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: And look, I don't call for people to retire. You 137 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: go as long as you want. But Pop, I think 138 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: is early seventies and I don't know what he wants 139 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: to do. He's a very interesting guy. Off the field, 140 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: has other interests. But I just I was watching and going, 141 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: I wonder if that's the last time we're seeing with 142 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 1: the San Antonio Spurs, or he might go I don't 143 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: want to go out that way. And that's part of 144 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: the issue with anybody who's thinking about retiring. Can I 145 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: go out on top? I can't go out on top? Well, 146 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: I can't go out with the first round exit. We 147 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: didn't even make it in the playoffs. And you watch 148 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: the team that, you know, what are you building on? 149 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: What free agents are you getting, who's coming to San Antonio? 150 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: And you look at the West and the West is 151 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: going to be ultra competitive for the next couple of years. 152 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: And I just wondered, not that Pop's going to go, oh, 153 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: you know, I'm intimidated, or I'm afraid of what these 154 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 1: other teams are like, or how young, or they're superstars. 155 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: But this is a coach who coached relevant games, had 156 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: relevant teams, had star power. He doesn't have that in 157 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: San Antonio. What else do you have? Mclovin quite another 158 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,120 Speaker 1: quick question. So they didn't make the playoffs this year. 159 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: That's how everyone said. So you're in the playing game tournament, 160 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 1: You're not in the playoffs, but it's not doesn't count 161 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: your regular season stats. So what is it? It's this 162 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: weird little limbo. Well, you don't make the NCAA tournament 163 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: if you're the first four. You don't know you make 164 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 1: the tournament. When you get through the first four, I think, 165 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 1: are you sure? I mean, you could be right, But 166 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 1: to the sixty eight, it's a field of sixty eight. 167 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: Now it's not a field of sixty four. You're in 168 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: the tournament if you're in the playing aren't you. I 169 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: don't know. Why? Why are you playing in to get 170 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: into You're playing in to get into one? Yeah, I 171 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 1: mean it, okay, maybe it's officially technically you're in the tournament, 172 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: but I never feel that way. When I watched the 173 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: playing games, I'm like, they're playing in to get into 174 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: the tournament. Yeah, So who will be the the champion 175 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: of the State Farm play in tournament? Are the Lakers 176 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: the champ because now they don't have to play anymore? 177 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 1: Or does the winner of the Warriors Grizzlies become the 178 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: champion of the play in tournament but then co champs? Yeah, 179 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. If do you raise 180 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,199 Speaker 1: a banner. We gotta make shirts for the champions of 181 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: the State Farm Playing Tournament, State Farm play in tournament. Yeah, 182 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: hang the band, Yeah yeah, I don't forget Boston is 183 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: co champion. If Boston the Lakers champions, Yeah, the way 184 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: it should be NBA history. Sure, sure I could see that. Okay, 185 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: Eastern Conference Playing Game Champions State Farm Yeah. Twitter handles 186 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: had DP show from number eight seven seven three DP 187 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 1: show email address DP at Dan Patrick dot com. Yes, Todd, 188 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: they can't be considered playoff games because you don't know 189 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 1: who the seven or eight seeds are yet. So just 190 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: just that fact alone, it used to be one through 191 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 1: eight is in. But those teams that are playing may 192 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 1: not be seven, they may not be eight, they may 193 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: not be anything. So they're not officially in the playoffs 194 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: because they don't have any seed yet, Thank you, Todd. Yes, 195 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 1: Paul Todd's kind of right. These games count as nothing 196 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: as of right now. The NBA has said these games, 197 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: whatever statue have in these games are kind of in 198 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: the ether. They don't count as playoff stats and they 199 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: don't count as regular season stats. So Jason Tatum's fifty 200 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: point game the other day is just a record for 201 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: the play in tournament. Yeah, but Lebron had the one 202 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: hundred twenty seventh triple double of his career. Doesn't count 203 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: because let's say Lebron had twelve career playoff triple doubles, 204 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 1: this would not count as one of them. It is 205 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: a I think Jeff Van Gundy was upset about this 206 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: last night. Don't want to make these stats don't count 207 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: for anything. Grizzlies faced the Warriors on Friday night PJ 208 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 1: Championships Underway. Pacers at the Wizards. Yeah, yeah, no, isn't 209 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: this the Let's tune in to watch Russell Westbrook Junior 210 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:56,640 Speaker 1: the third because he got all of this attention, triple 211 00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: double record, maybe the second or third greatest card of 212 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 1: all time. Let's watch him during the postseason. Didn't do well, 213 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: kind of wobbly in the first game against the Celtics. 214 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: And now you got the Pacers, the Pacers who put 215 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: up one hundred forty four points on my hornets. And 216 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: now it's the Wizards against the Pacers. All right, I 217 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: had another no hitter last night. You know, you get 218 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: those alerts on your phone or a friend will say, hey, 219 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:32,559 Speaker 1: ninth inning. Corey Kluber Yankees yes, network, I said to Paully, 220 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 1: what did you turn over? And Polly goes no. I 221 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: had the remote actually in my hand, not figuratively, literally 222 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: in one hand. I was like, this game, this basketball 223 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: game is pretty good. I'm not gonna switch, but it's 224 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: it's a no hitter. Still, Mike. If we got into 225 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 1: the point where no hitters are like home runs, where 226 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 1: we go? Can you text me when there's a hitter? 227 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: How about a game with hits? Let me know what, 228 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: like a twelve hit game? Yes. Time. I was disappointed 229 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 1: to myself when I got that alert years ago. I'd 230 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 1: be like, wow, when then you try to find it 231 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: or a clip of it or see if it's still 232 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: going on. Instead, my attitude was really like another one. 233 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: And then I went right back to Lakers Warriors. We're 234 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 1: annoyed by no hitters, Like, oh god, how many no 235 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: hitters this month? So that's six no hitters so far 236 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: this season. The Rangers, Indians, and Mariners have all been 237 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 1: no hit twice this season. No, they had not twice. Yes, yeah, 238 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 1: those are the teams that have been no hit this season. Yeah. See, 239 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: there is something strange about being like, hey, you have 240 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: to turn this on no one's hitting. It sounds like 241 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 1: exactly like the worst thing you'd want to watch. No 242 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: one's even gotten a hit. Yet you gotta see this. 243 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: You still got to tune in for it. Guys, nothing's happening, 244 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 1: It's right, it's still it's a no hitter. He's just 245 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: throwing pitches. No one's hitting. It's awesome because you only 246 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: care about really the last batter. I mean, you might 247 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: care of that if there's something that's dangerous, you know, 248 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 1: a great play whatever, but you're kind of owning in 249 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 1: to go ninth inning, last three batters. Yeah, I was 250 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: fine with it. It's history. Corey Klueber's got two Cy Youngs. Yeah. 251 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 1: Pull it's always weird. It must have been weird at 252 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: Sports Center when someone had to cut highlights of a 253 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: no hitter and he's out and he's out again. Well, 254 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 1: there's normally one or two plays in a no hitter 255 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: that you're gonna show, and there might be a hit 256 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: by pitch or a walk, or might be a wild 257 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: pitch on a strikeout, great cat whatever, there's gonna be something, 258 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: and then you're gonna show does this guy is he dealing? 259 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: Is he striking out people or are they putting it 260 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: in play so you can you can dress up a 261 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 1: highlight with the no hitter. Yeah, Smcloban. I learned a 262 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 1: little about Corey Cluber last night. He is a humorless man, 263 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 1: and I don't mean that at that's all. He's one 264 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: of those pictures they're like, they're like, so, no, you know, 265 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 1: you're not supposed to talk to a picture during a 266 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: no hitter. Apparently you don't get near Corey Kluber on 267 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,360 Speaker 1: game day. He's one of those guys, which reminded me 268 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: of that story where you came up to Randy Johnson. 269 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: You know, so some pictures just don't have a routine. 270 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: You can't get near them. I think he's one of 271 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: those guys. Yeah, I got I got set up by 272 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: the Diamondbacks when we are at Wrigley Field. That was 273 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: when Luis Gonzalez and Mark Grace said, hey, go go 274 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,760 Speaker 1: say hello to Unit. And I had no idea that 275 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,440 Speaker 1: you do not approach Randy Johnson on game day when 276 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: he's pitching. And I walk over there and go, hey, Unit, Hey, 277 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: Hey just coming over to Sallo. Yeah, and I turn around. 278 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 1: I can hear Mark Grayson, Luis Gonzalez giggling, and I 279 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: turn around and Randy Johnson's I pleased at him with 280 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: him and I went, I'll be damn. They set me up. 281 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: Go over there and salo to Randy Johnson got my 282 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 1: game face on. Imagine if I had that. You know, 283 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: when I go to Sports Center, you know I had 284 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 1: my game Don't talk to me.

Yes, and not 288 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: only that, were you so focused on show day that 289 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 1: you had do that, but that you couldn't for five 290 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: days leading up to it be thrown out of your 291 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: routine before you did the show. Oh hey guys, that's 292 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: three days out. I got a long toss today or 293 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: else I'm never gonna be right for you know, Sunday 294 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: pictures are such high maintenance, but they by far the 295 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: biggest divas in sports. When when you would try to 296 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: interview somebody, they weren't even pitching that day, and then 297 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: they go, uh no, I can't today. I don't want 298 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: to break up my routine. I'm like, what's your routine? 299 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 1: And then they would run the foul polls. They'd be 300 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 1: in the outfield just running back and forth and there'd 301 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: be long toss and they're side work as they would go, 302 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: then I go, So you don't have like five minutes, 303 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: like seven minutes, three minutes, yes time, would you ever 304 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: want that type of reputation as focused as you are, 305 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: whatever your superstition or routine is. Because you hear about 306 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: like these talk show hosts. You can talk to them 307 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: in the hall, you can't look them right in the eyes. 308 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: It's like an eclipse. They get really upset. It screws 309 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,679 Speaker 1: them up. There's such a big deal. You can't go 310 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 1: anywhere near them or gains them in conversation. Yes, Pole 311 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,160 Speaker 1: years ago, I worked at CBS Sports and off months 312 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: I would help out over at CBS News to pick 313 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 1: up extra dough. I worked for about a month. Is 314 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 1: it CBS This Morning whatever their morning show is.

Martha, this is a long 320 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 1: time ago, Martha Stewart did a regular segment on that show, 321 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: and a producer pulled me aside and says, don't go 322 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: up and say good segment. Don't cope and give her notes. 323 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: She has a producer that works with her. Don't get 324 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 1: in her way. I was told I was given a 325 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 1: nice riot act. They told me, Hey, but they only 326 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 1: told you that with that guest. They didn't tell you 327 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: to not make contact with anybody else. No, and she 328 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,199 Speaker 1: was like a like a recurring member of the team's 329 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: part of the story to him. But Brian Gumble was 330 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: also a guy that wasn't chatty with people that weren't 331 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 1: his people. But I was never told not to talk 332 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: to him. Yeah, yeah, See. I would love to hear 333 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: a starting pitcher just after getting shelled one game and 334 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: they're sitting around as the locker and they're like, hey's 335 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,239 Speaker 1: what happened there today? In the third he gave up 336 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: you know, fifteen hits and twenty runs or well, you know, 337 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: on Tuesday this week, I did a five minute interview 338 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: that kind of threw off a schedule for the next 339 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: three days. So I really haven't been right since my 340 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 1: long tasks got cut short, This intern looked at me 341 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 1: and asked me how I was doing. The whole you 342 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: can't make eye contact is just weird because you hear 343 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:41,439 Speaker 1: that with certain actors, some talk show host where And 344 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: I understand if you're the talk show host, you've got 345 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: a lot of things to deal with. You don't want 346 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,119 Speaker 1: everybody coming up to you and saying, hey, how are 347 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: you today? Hey? Can I get you something today? You 348 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 1: want to go from point A to point B without 349 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:58,440 Speaker 1: too many stops in between. I understand that we don't 350 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: have any policies like that. Okay, I don't do that. 351 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: I don't do that to you guys. And we're not 352 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 1: allowed to make eye contact with you. No, no, I'm 353 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: saying we don't have any of that. I mean we 354 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 1: do those things on your behalf. We protect you on 355 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 1: your behalf, unbeknownst to you. Yeah. Yes, time from a 356 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: dan nextampoint.

But there are certain little 359 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: subtle things I don't like to. You know, I'll be 360 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: eating lunch of tidle, walk up and say, hey, what 361 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,479 Speaker 1: do you got a chicken sandwich there. I don't like that. 362 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: It's poor small talk, and he's just we want to 363 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,360 Speaker 1: eat and be left a load. Who has the most 364 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 1: pet peeves in here? This is good? This is good? 365 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: Is it good? Yeah? It's good. Who has the most 366 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: pet peeves? Is that what things they find annoying or 367 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:53,640 Speaker 1: that others find or that or are or they themselves 368 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: are annoying? Yeah, because those are very different things. Because 369 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 1: I might have the most pet peeves. I find a 370 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: lot of things really annoying. Okay, yes, time, I know, 371 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: like the rest of the guys. Now, unfortunately, I'm very 372 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: uncomfortable with a long period of silence. I'll start humming 373 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: sports themes. Are is the most annoying? If that's what 374 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: we're trying to get at. He's definitely got a lot 375 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: of ticks. But as far as pet peeves, though, like, 376 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 1: that's to me, that's something a little different than a 377 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: certain way it is time. The most annoying person in 378 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:22,239 Speaker 1: this our one pole question? Yes, in this room. I 379 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: think yesterday at the end of the show, we're like, 380 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 1: we should do a pole question, most most punchable Danette 381 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: and I went, no, I don't think we need to 382 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,360 Speaker 1: encourage anything. We're not actively asking you to do it. Well, 383 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,320 Speaker 1: it feels like that you don't you know, the audience 384 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: doesn't know. They could be like, hey, you you said 385 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 1: punch you know mclubbin. Yeah, we don't encourage that. I mean, 386 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 1: if it happens, it happens. But as long as it's 387 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: on camera, that's all I care about is that we 388 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: don't encourage. We uncourage. That means uncouraged. It's like, don't 389 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 1: do that. By the way, if you're watching on Peacock, 390 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: we got a great piece of video with Ario during 391 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: the commercial break.

I'm really like, uh, still kind 441 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: of I want to call a state of shock, but 442 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: the weight of it hasn't hit me. I know what 443 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,679 Speaker 1: it means. I continue to learn what it means. But 444 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 1: when I called my father, that was a special moment. 445 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: You know, you know, parents, they go through everything, and 446 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 1: just being a father of young kids now, I can't 447 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: imagine how my father and mother did, but five kids 448 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 1: that we married fifty years to the summer in July. 449 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 1: So it was a special, you know, special moment from 450 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 1: whom as a guy from sort the Mississippi, he was 451 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: just going through his life and you know, it's really 452 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 1: cool I did it. But as a father, he never 453 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 1: thought as a child, when he was a child, that 454 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 1: you know, he would have kids, uh, you know, kind 455 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 1: of do with his kids. It was awesome. I think 456 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:28,399 Speaker 1: Robert Or's a Hall of Famer. I think he's I 457 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: think he's known for winning. I think the teams in 458 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:35,880 Speaker 1: these won championships for all setting with no one without him. 459 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: I know he took one for me. So I definitely 460 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: have to, I definitely have to, you know, put him 461 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 1: in there just just because we just you know, we 462 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,959 Speaker 1: talked about all these clutch players, and guys are clutched 463 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 1: on the regular season, guys are clutched ur in their 464 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,719 Speaker 1: whole career. But has there been anyone more clutch than 465 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: Robert Ry. I don't know. Yeah. I wondered about that though, 466 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 1: because you know, he didn't even score ten thousand points. 467 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: He wasn't a starter, but when a game was on 468 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 1: the line, he was the guy that you had to 469 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 1: account for. You can't write the history of the NBA 470 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: without Robert Orry. But I wonder what that cutoff is. 471 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 1: I mentioned that Derek Fisher has five rings. He's played 472 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 1: in the I think as many postseason games as anybody 473 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: in history, and I think he's tied with Lebron So 474 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. And you know, we've been talking about 475 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,399 Speaker 1: Julian Edelman with the Patriots. Is he a Hall of 476 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: Famer even though he wasn't a Pro Bowl player? Like, 477 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: it's kind of weird that, you know, you're trying to 478 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: figure this out. It feels like a moving target. Yeah, 479 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: and you know, Edelman was one of my favorite players 480 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: doing the playoffs. Didn't care what he did during a 481 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 1: regular season. You know, he's gonna be a slop position Q. 482 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I really many of the years. No, no, 483 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 1: no, no no, I'm a I'm a I'm a Lions fan. 484 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 1: Recovery lines. Okay, but I'm gonna I'm gonna win this year. 485 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,640 Speaker 1: I'm a fan of different players, like for instance, this year, 486 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 1: watch out for the Rams. I have them earlier. They're 487 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: going to the super Bowl because they have my quarterback. 488 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:11,360 Speaker 1: They got my quarterback, and so I'm following them. But 489 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: I was just you know, yeah, we're gonna be good. 490 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 1: But you know, it's really hard to tell the last 491 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: few years, I've been thinking about these conversations and comparing 492 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: players and stating things, and it just kind of it 493 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: really gets messy when you know you don't have any 494 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: metrics to you know, compare against, and so it just 495 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: turns to the Warriors. With the Lakers last night, what 496 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: did you see that would be of concern if you're 497 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:42,719 Speaker 1: a Laker fan. The slow start of the Lakers, the 498 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 1: fact that they ever take drumming out. You know, I 499 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: thought that drumming was the price of the of the 500 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 1: season because I thought if he just came and did 501 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,399 Speaker 1: what he's supposed to do and that's just remound, just 502 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 1: put back shots, just play defense, I thought they were 503 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: going to be really intense, and really I still think 504 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: the Lakers are my favorite with those three, but it 505 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: would concern me the slow start that they got off 506 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: to you, because you can't really do that in the playoffs, 507 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 1: specially not against great coach teams like Phoenix and others. 508 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: But you got Phoenix now coming up with the Lakers 509 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: fare better against Phoenix than they would Utah. That's a 510 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: good question. I think the Lakers are just when when 511 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: they're playing them defensive mean defensively, where vocal is done 512 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,360 Speaker 1: with them, I just love it, And so defensively they're 513 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: so long switched to communicate, whether it's Caruso or whether 514 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 1: it's Ad and so I like them defensively. I don't 515 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: know who would be the tougher. I think Utah is 516 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 1: probably happy that they get to wait and hopefully get 517 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 1: that point guard back. But right now, I just think 518 00:27:46,200 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: that no matter who Las, no matter who the Lakers played, 519 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to play with the same sense of 520 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 1: urgency because they don't have they don't have that room 521 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 1: to just play around. When you get switched on Lebron, 522 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: what's that feeling like? Oh, the first thing you do 523 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: is look at what ball he has to hand in? There? 524 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: What hand he has the ball in? Then you tried 525 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: to shade him to that side, and then you're going 526 00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: like this, which means y'all better be in the back 527 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: and help. You know, I was there. I was there 528 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: in Detroit, Man, and I really honestly thought that the Pistons, 529 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: you know, it's gonna be my first chance to win 530 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: the championship because that was one of the best locker 531 00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: rooms I was in. And he had twenty five I 532 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: think OHNs in the fourth quarter, and I've never seen 533 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: anything like that with some of the best defenders on 534 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: the Pistons that I got ever played with it. So 535 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 1: he's so strong first as IQ was incredible. He's so strong, 536 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,920 Speaker 1: he takes the shots that he wants. And then right 537 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: when you think that you're doing your best job and 538 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: help comes, he finds somebody else in the corner, you know, 539 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: I mean Booby Gibson or whoever hit six threes on 540 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: this because we were going after Lebron. So he's he's 541 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 1: one of the greatest just because he understands how great 542 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: he is. And he's unsolfied. So he's tough. Does he 543 00:28:56,440 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: talk trash? Now? You want to talk to tasting me now? 544 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: But I mean I think he didn't make it the 545 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 1: ripping guys. He knew a little bit, but now you 546 00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: know he's gonna. I think he studied Jordan and those guys. 547 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 1: So he waits for the big shot at the big moment, 548 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: and you know, kind of talks jump with his gestures 549 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: or his eyes. You see him hit the three last 550 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 1: night and stake that was kind of a gesture right there, 551 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: you know, in itself. But Joan, I don't have to 552 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: talk because but Jordan didn't talk until it was a 553 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:25,959 Speaker 1: big moment. So during the early part of a game, 554 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:29,640 Speaker 1: he wouldn't say anything. Oh no, Jordan would talk. No, Yeah, 555 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: Joan and I Joan, thanks for the shirt, by the way, Joan, 556 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: Joan and I Joanna was from Chicago. We play against 557 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: Jordan and some of those type of things, and so 558 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: we would talk to Jordan because Joan and I felt 559 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: like we had nothing to lose and let's just give 560 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 1: it out all and have some great stories to tell 561 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: our kids about. So, yeah, Jordan, though, he would talk 562 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: from him. If you wanted to talk, he would talk. 563 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: And again I think I told you the story about 564 00:29:55,000 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: the playoffs when we got off the bus and inside 565 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: of a nine smoking building, joined smoking a cigar before 566 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: the game, standing and leaning on his ferrari as we're 567 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: getting off the bus and he goes, hey, Chris, Juan, 568 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: who's gonna check me tonight? And we were I've always 569 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 1: pride to myself on being like the best teammate, but 570 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 1: this night I let my man down because we both 571 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: love it back and said Calbert, guy, he gave us 572 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: fifty five in the playoff game. He gave Calbird fifty five. 573 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: He didn't give you fifty five. He probably gave me 574 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: about seventeen though, But we just I mean, I'm Calbert 575 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: looked at this two It was it was he looked 576 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 1: at him so helpless, like really, really you're gonna do 577 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: that to me? Sorry about that. Hall of Famer Chris 578 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: Webber joining us on the program. That was a nice 579 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: moment with you and Jalen Rose on ESPN. Don't know, 580 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 1: it's a long time coming. But is it more than 581 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: that or was it just that that moment that you 582 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: guys got to share. It was just that moment. Um. 583 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: I didn't know it was going to interview me. I 584 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: thought Maria was and you know, right before the interview, Uh, 585 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: he interviewed me and so um everything I said that 586 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: I met and I said, you know before another interviews, 587 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 1: but he knows. I mean, you got you got to 588 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: go into a room and talk, fight, wrestle something, you know, 589 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: And so that was a great movement moment. But from 590 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: all the papers, but from what I heard, you know, 591 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: we made up and things like that was nothing talking room. 592 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 1: So that was the first time we talked. Um. It 593 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: was an awesome moment, especially for our parents, our family. 594 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 1: I love his sister, you know, our families and are close. Um. 595 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 1: But yeah, no, we still have to talk. Yeah, because 596 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: a lot of times you'll have family members who don't 597 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: talk to family members, but everybody else in the family goes, 598 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,719 Speaker 1: why don't you too, just get in the room and talk. Yeah, 599 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: that's that's that's you know what happened up until the 600 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 1: day's beautiful mother, Um, um had our homegoing.

It's just an issue of you know, 603 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: it's what it is. We just have to go into 604 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 1: the room and talking.

Mike 674 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 1: Finger is the writer. Is this San Antonio newspaper that 675 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,720 Speaker 1: San Antonio News Express? I believe? Okay? And I mentioned 676 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 1: this while I'm watching the game last night. When Pop 677 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: walked off the floor, I wondered if that's the last 678 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:26,399 Speaker 1: time I'll see him as an NBA head coach. Mike 679 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,879 Speaker 1: Finger ends his column today saying, but on Wednesday night, 680 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 1: as he talked about how proud he was about this 681 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: team and how optimistic he is about the franchise's future, 682 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 1: even as he shot down specific questions about what's next, 683 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,040 Speaker 1: it was difficult not to think about how, even with 684 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: no pump and no celebration and not so much as 685 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 1: a wave goodbye, it all might have been fitting. And 686 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 1: then he ends it with if this was the end, 687 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: that was the feeling. He says, he's really proud of 688 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: his team, and I understand that, but he's seventy two 689 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,520 Speaker 1: years of age. I don't know if he's going to 690 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:13,759 Speaker 1: be coming back, but it wouldn't be shocking if the 691 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: Spurs said nothing about this that they waited till after 692 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: the Olympics. I still go back to when the Spurs 693 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 1: won the title and this was against the Knicks, and 694 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 1: I remember trying to get Popovich to do an interview 695 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 1: on the stage and he waved me off. It was 696 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 1: just not about him. It's never been about him. He's 697 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 1: i think, by most people's assessment, he's been a great 698 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:53,440 Speaker 1: players coach. Tough, but a great players coach and caring 699 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 1: about his players. And his point was and I think 700 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: he even realized that he might have embarrassed me because 701 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,839 Speaker 1: I'm trying to get him to come over and do 702 00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 1: this interview. It's Greg Popovich and he just waived me, 703 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: like nope, I don't want any part of this. And 704 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 1: then I realized that that's just who he is. He 705 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: just didn't want to he didn't need it. Let's put 706 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:17,759 Speaker 1: it that way. There's a lot of coaches who were 707 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:21,399 Speaker 1: waiting for you, or they positioned themselves, hey I want 708 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: the credit, give me credit. Don't forget about me. Pop 709 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 1: has never been that way selfless, and that was one 710 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,360 Speaker 1: of those moments where he could have easily taken a 711 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:35,319 Speaker 1: bow and he wanted no part of it because in 712 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: his mind and his words, they did it. Talk to them. 713 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: But look at the personalities that you had there. You know, 714 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:47,839 Speaker 1: David Robinson not I mean gregarious guy, fun guy, but 715 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 1: you're not a self promoter. Tim Duncan not a self promoter. 716 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: And they kind of embody the personality of their head 717 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 1: coach Genobley didn't say a lot. His personality was the 718 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 1: way he played. I mean, profile was you know, profile 719 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 1: was important. I think to Tony Parker. You know he 720 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: was married to Eva Longoria. You know this was a 721 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 1: big deal, you know, being a Hollywood actress there. But 722 00:39:20,920 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: that's that's about it. And you had Brent Berry, Matt Bonner, 723 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 1: not Bruce Bowen. But it all worked together. They all 724 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:40,280 Speaker 1: made it. They made it work. So maybe that maybe 725 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:42,399 Speaker 1: he comes back. I hope he comes back. But if 726 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 1: he wants to come back and he gets that opportunity, great, 727 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 1: It's not like you go, boy, he's seventy two. He 728 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: should retire. If he loves this, I just don't know. 729 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 1: And look, this is selfish on my part when I 730 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:58,240 Speaker 1: watched this that I always saw him in meaningful games 731 00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,720 Speaker 1: with relevant teams, and I don't see him in meaningful 732 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 1: games with relevant teams. But that doesn't mean that's not 733 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: what he loves doing. He might say, Hey, you left 734 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 1: ESPN like you kind of disappeared, like you did it 735 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 1: for what you wanted to do. He's right, and if 736 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: this is what he loves, he truly loves coaching, good 737 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 1: for him. I just got that feeling last night that 738 00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:27,400 Speaker 1: that might be it for Greg. Pop of it? All right, McLevin, 739 00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 1: you got a pull question for me? Okay, we got 740 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 1: a few options, all right, Starry with the no hitter? 741 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 1: Would you rather watch a no hitter or like Kennate 742 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: slugger slug fest in baseball? Which which do you flip? 743 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:39,720 Speaker 1: I mean, we couldn't get Polly to turn the channel 744 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: last night, but would you watch like a I don't know, 745 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:48,880 Speaker 1: maybe fifteen twelve home run fest? Would I rather be 746 00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:51,720 Speaker 1: at a game, whether it was a no hitter or 747 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 1: a game that was a softball like score? Is that 748 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:57,879 Speaker 1: what we're asking? Yeah? Exactly? All right? I saw two 749 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 1: no hitters in person, not your team, though they know 750 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: hit the Reds I was not there for Tom Sievers, 751 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:09,240 Speaker 1: no hitter, but Rick Wise and he had two home runs. 752 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 1: Imagine that, you know, hit your he no hits your 753 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: team and hits two home runs. And the other one 754 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 1: was Kenny Holtzman who beat the Reds. And we had 755 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 1: Johnny Bench on yesterday, you know, saying that he tried 756 00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 1: to bunt to get a hit. By the way, I 757 00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 1: went back, the scores won nothing. That's why you bunt, Todd. 758 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,239 Speaker 1: I know you change things a little bit. I wasn't 759 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 1: aware of what the score was. Well, you had no 760 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 1: problem calling out Johnny Bench saying it was weak, but 761 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: you didn't do any research. I didn't do any research, 762 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,240 Speaker 1: and I still think it's weak to stick your bat 763 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,879 Speaker 1: at as a desperate attempt. I think you should apologize 764 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,800 Speaker 1: to Johnny Bench in America. That's not gonna happen that. 765 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,200 Speaker 1: I love joy apologies and what not. The game. You 766 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: gotta get a basic trying to tie or win the game. 767 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,960 Speaker 1: Thank you. Yes, But I was a kid during the 768 00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,880 Speaker 1: day the Phillies would go play the Cubs when the 769 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: wind was blowing out, and it was a home run fest. 770 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: It was the greatest games of all time. That was fun. 771 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: Because Mike Schmidt. If Mike Schmidt played at Wrigley Field, 772 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:04,800 Speaker 1: he would have hit eight hundred home runs eight hundred 773 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 1: and five pace for You're right dead. He hit like 774 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: seven ninety against the Cubs. It was when I was 775 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 1: a kid, I thought Mike Schmidt was the greatest athlete 776 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 1: on Earth because I watched Cubs games. There was a 777 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 1: game in seventy nine Phillies at Cubs twenty three, twenty two. 778 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 1: It only went one extra inning. Yeah, and there's twenty 779 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:26,399 Speaker 1: There was a there's fifty hits in the game. Oh god, Yeah, 780 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 1: it was the ada vertuo that the other day Philly, 781 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,760 Speaker 1: Philly lives for that day. That was a big escape. 782 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 1: But now home runs are generic. Now, no one cares. 783 00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 1: Corey Klueber through his uh second no hitter, sent Riter 784 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: said his first time, I think you two Cy youngs. 785 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 1: I was curious the number of players pitchers in the 786 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame who have multiple Cy young So two 787 00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: times Cy youngs.
