1 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up 2 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: straight Fire, fam? It is me, Jason McIntyre. This is 3 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: Straight Fire for Wednesday April. I had to have Rob 4 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: g looked this up. Guys. This is the four hundred 5 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:29,400 Speaker 1: and seventy ninth episode of Straight Fire. Okay, four seventy nine. 6 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: I'm stunned. I just thought about it because I was 7 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,279 Speaker 1: listening to some other podcasts and the guy said something 8 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: that we've done six hundred podcasts and they've been around 9 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,479 Speaker 1: for like three years. We've almost gotten to five hundred 10 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: in a little over two years, almost two years. I 11 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: lose track of time. It's funny. I had someone tell 12 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: me how this felt like it happened a couple of 13 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: years ago, and meanwhile I was like eight years ago. 14 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 1: And obviously, you know they're saying the days are interminable 15 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 1: and the years just fly by. That's life totally. I mean, 16 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 1: I still remember bur as I'm recruiting some dads for 17 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 1: the soccer tournament with another dad. The first time I 18 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: had played in a dad's soccer tournament was I think 19 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 1: in eighteen, uh maybe twenty nineteen. I had not played 20 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: soccer since, and I think I've told this story. I 21 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: was on a club team in eighth grade and I 22 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 1: wasn't getting bigger. Other kids were hitting puberty and I 23 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: was just getting pushed off the ball. My speed had 24 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: been neutralized. I did not have the skill that some 25 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 1: of these bigger kids had, and I'll never forget. We 26 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: lost in p k's in the state tournament, and that 27 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: was a rap for my career and it was over. 28 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: I knew it, and it sucked and I didn't play 29 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: for the longest time after that. So then I played 30 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: a dad tournament. I do some scrimmag drums like, oh 31 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: I got this, and I we had an awesome team. 32 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,559 Speaker 1: We end up winning the championship. I scored like five 33 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: goals and I think five or six games. It was 34 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: an awesome run and I felt, oh, I could do this, 35 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: And you know, you just you forget how quickly time 36 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 1: goes by. And I'm just gonna jump right into this 37 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: with what happened in the NBA last night. John Morant, 38 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: it feels like he was still blowing up at Murray 39 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: State yesterday. You guys remember this. There was like a 40 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: minor debate job Morant or Zion Williamson. Should that be 41 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: the deal? In the draft, and next thing, you know, 42 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: here we are a few years down the road and 43 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: John Moran is absolutely taking over playoff games the way 44 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: Derrick Rose used to. And what happened on Tuesday night 45 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: in Memphis still is absolutely staggering. I still can't believe 46 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: it happened. So I'm rooting Minnesota. Obviously. The big boss 47 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,679 Speaker 1: at Fox Sports Radio, Scott Shapiro, who listens religiously, is 48 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: a Minnesota fan for all sports, and we've been texting 49 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: about the series, you know, and he obviously he's sweating bullets, 50 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: nervous about it. I mean, Minnesota can't hold a lead 51 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: at all. Reminds me of a great line from the 52 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:53,079 Speaker 1: movie The Last Boy. Scout Damon Wayan's meets Bruce Willis 53 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: in the Strip Club. Bruce Willis is scouting halle Berry, 54 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 1: who he's got to protect, and Damon Wayin's comes up 55 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 1: all angry and he's like, you know who, who are you? 56 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: You're you're a bum, blah blah blah, and David Wayne 57 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: says a funny line, you couldn't protect a cup of 58 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: warm piss and knocks the glass off. I mean, the 59 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: whole exchange is great. I remember it at Last, boys 60 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: got criminally underrated sports movie. I think it qualifies for sports. 61 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: If you haven't seen it, go check it out. But um, 62 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: Minnesota cannot protect the lead at all. The series has 63 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: been great bad basketball. I was texting with a buddy 64 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 1: of mine who loves the NBA and he's a big 65 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 1: Warriors fan, and I know he's scouting Minnesota and Memphis. 66 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: And you know, we've been joking that neither of these 67 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 1: teams is could have a chance against Golden State. Golden 68 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: State is gonna just dumb truck them because they're stupid 69 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: basketball teams. And I don't mean that in a derogatory manner. 70 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: They just don't play smart. They're too young. They're young 71 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: and dumb. That's what these two teams are. And Minnesota, 72 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: you've got Karl Anthony Towns shushing the Memphis crowd with 73 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: ten minutes left because you're up there team shushing the crowd. 74 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: There's screen grabs of him doing it. We're up thirteen, 75 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: I mean, there's ten minutes left in the game. Oh 76 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: you've done. His blue leads the entire series. What are 77 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: you doing? And you know, I said, this is great theater, 78 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: This is really good, exciting end of game action. It's 79 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: not good basketball. But the last three games have been 80 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: decided by single digits, the last two by a combined 81 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: three points, and you know, you just new Minnesota was 82 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: gonna blow it. This is how bad it was, though. 83 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: I bet the under for John Morant points and assists, 84 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: and it was looking awesome. With like two minutes left, 85 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:39,919 Speaker 1: Desmond Baine continues to or what I thought was be 86 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 1: the best guard on Memphis. He's built for the playoffs 87 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: because he can shoot it. He's a three and d. 88 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: John Morant can't really shoot the ball. Of course, he 89 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: makes a back baking three late in the game. As 90 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: that's what happens. I bet the under thirty five and 91 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: a half points and assists. Jabs at like twenty six 92 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: with like to thirty left, I'm like, all right, this 93 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 1: is great. I mean, there's barring overtime. I got this. 94 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 1: John Morant proceeds to score thirteen straight points, then the 95 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: game in like a two oh one span. It was ridiculous. 96 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: It just took over the game. That is Derrick Ross. 97 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: That is what Derrick Rose did in Chicago back in 98 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: the day. I'm not gonna say they're clones. I mean 99 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 1: John Moran had a ridiculously insane dunk that has to 100 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: be so far the dunk of the playoffs. Every one 101 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 1: of his layups. You know how Kyrie Irving has an 102 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: elite layup package. Everybody says, well, what does what does 103 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: that make? John Morant's extraordinary? I mean it is, he's 104 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 1: in the air and he's a high wire act. That's 105 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: so fun. And every time I watched this guy, I'm like, man, 106 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: he's doing some crazy stuff. But I know this is 107 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: gonna sound crazy. I don't think Memphis should they win 108 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: this series. It's not a lot they're gonna win the series. 109 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: By the way, guys, it is far from a lock 110 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: that they're gonna win this series. I don't think they 111 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 1: have any chance against Steph care in Golden State. And 112 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: and the comparison would be Derreck Rose and the Chicago Bulls. 113 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: Do you guys remember the Bulls became the number one seed. 114 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: Derrick ros won the m v P. Lebron took it 115 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: as a slight Bulls at home court advantage. Game one, 116 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 1: the Bulls hammer the Heat. Remember this is the first 117 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 1: year of the heatles Lebron Wade Bosh, Bulls hammer them 118 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: by twin I'm looking at the box score right now. 119 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: They won by twenty one point um. They took over 120 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: in the second half and just dominated. Lebron only had 121 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 1: fifteen points. He didn't play great. Derrick Ros as he 122 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: had all season, was incredible points, just flying through the air. 123 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: MVP Derrick Rose was a sight to behold. Some of 124 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: his dunks off one ft or two were incredible. He 125 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: was musty television and that's what John Moran is right now. 126 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: They ascended to be the number two seed. They will 127 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 1: have home home court advantage against the Warriors, and maybe 128 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: they win game one, and it was like, oh dude, 129 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: you got new Kings. Remember do you remember what happened 130 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: the four games after Derrick Ros gonna one Game one? 131 00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:03,679 Speaker 1: Do you remember? Did you forget? Because I didn't. Lebron said, 132 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 1: who who won the MVP? Derrick Rose? Is he the 133 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: best player in the league? Oh? Okay? And Lebron shut 134 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 1: his ass down, totally took him out of the game. 135 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: Heat won Game two by ten, one, game three by eleven, 136 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 1: Game four and game five gentleman sweep. Lebron absolutely took 137 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: over after Game one, average seven and six. Derrick Rose again, 138 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: he was only twenty two years old, and he and 139 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: he struggled badly after that game, one shot from from three, 140 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: and it was like, man, well, I guess, I guess 141 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 1: Lebron is still you know, king of the league. Um. 142 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: And of course they go on to lose to the 143 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: Mavericks in a series that Lebron will never live down 144 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: for bizarre reasons. But every that's all. Any time the 145 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: Jordan discussion comes up, it's like, oh, well, you know, 146 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: you forget that Lebron lost to the MAVs while favored 147 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: in the finals. That's true, and there isn't much to 148 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: counter from from Lebron's perspective. That being said, there's always 149 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: well I'm not going to get into the Jordan Lebron debate, 150 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: sorry guys. But back to the John Morant Derrick Ross thing. 151 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: Guess how old John Morantis twenty two years old, same 152 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: as Derrick Ross. John Morant wins Most Improved Player, and 153 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,679 Speaker 1: I will say he was phenomenal this year. He's always 154 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: hurt they did well without him. He upped his three 155 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: point shooting a little bit thirt He's pretty good from 156 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,559 Speaker 1: the line scent, but he was money in the fourth quarter. 157 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: He just took over the game. Eighteen in the fourth. 158 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 1: And I know we don't do a lot on Memphis, 159 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: but I'm telling you that Memphis Golden State Series is 160 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: gonna be something would not shock me at Memphis one 161 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: Game one and Golden State ruled the West of the 162 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 1: way the same way Derrick Rose and Lebron went at 163 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: it in two thousand and eleven. I believe that was now. 164 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 1: A couple other notes, Fox Sports Radio has the best 165 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: sports talk lineup in the nation.

This guy's just Oh the shot selection. 170 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: He's shooting thirty from the field, he doesn't get to 171 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 1: the foul line. He makes criminally bad decisions. There was 172 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: a shot like he really forced. There's so much hero 173 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 1: ball from this team. He forces a horrible shot in 174 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: the final minute. I think they were down one and 175 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 1: he forces just this abysmal brick literally did not hit 176 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: the rim. I'm like, what are you doing? You have 177 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards on your team, you have Karl Anthony Towns 178 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: and d'anzel Russell's forcing that. I don't know. This team 179 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 1: is so perplexing. I feel bad for the coach. I 180 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: don't know what Finch could do other than just feed 181 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: Anthony Edwards. I hopefully they win Game six. I think 182 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: they probably can. But man, I just Minnesota. That's got 183 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: to be a frustrated series because, frankly, I think they're 184 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: the better team. I mean, Jaren Jackson, who wants defensive 185 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: player the year? He can't stay on the court. Jaren 186 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: Jackson is not their best forward. Brandon Clark is the 187 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: energy guy. He's coming off the bench twenty and thirteen, 188 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:06,079 Speaker 1: just bouncy. Remember him from Good Zaga, Just a rim running. 189 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: He's like Clint Capella, but I would say a little more. 190 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: You know who who else? I think he was the 191 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 1: same number as this kid um. He was coming out 192 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: of Kentucky. Willie cally Stein. Okay, that's what Brandon. Willie 193 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,920 Speaker 1: Calliston was supposed to be Brandon Clark and Willie Calliston 194 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,479 Speaker 1: never made it. He the guy got like face tattoos 195 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: and he was a bit out there. Brandon Clark is 196 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: just a soldier. Come in, I'll rebound, I'll knock pass 197 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 1: this out. He had a huge couple of rebounds, are 198 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 1: late offensive. I'm not gonna take bad shots. I'm gonna 199 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: dunk everything. And you know that's the Brandon Clark game 200 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 1: and he he is something else. But that game was 201 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: was stunning to me. I don't want to spend too 202 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: much time before we get to the draft in a 203 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: little bit. I don't want to spend too much time 204 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: on the Miami Heat Hawks game. I just do need 205 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: to get this out of my chest. I don't want 206 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: to say that the league solved Trey Young because they 207 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:01,680 Speaker 1: did not solve Trey Young. But from Trey Young in 208 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: the playoffs last year, beating the Knicks, beating the Sixers, 209 00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: best player on the court in Boat Series two, Oh 210 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: my gosh, he can't even get a shot off against 211 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: the Miami Heat. Twenty two baskets for Trey Young in 212 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: five games, thirty assists, thirty turnovers, thirty turnovers in a 213 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: five game series. He shot from the field. I did 214 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: love what Miami did. And listen, Miami. Remember is the 215 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: team that through the wall at Janie and the bubble. 216 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: I know I keep referencing that through the wall at 217 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: Yannis and the bubble and shut him down Miami. Now 218 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: Eric Spoelstra, great coach, is now throwing defenses at Trey Young. 219 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: I saw this sequence. They put the clip on Instagram. 220 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 1: I forget who posted it, but they put p J. Tucker, 221 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 1: big body, power forward on Trey Young to bring the ball. 222 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: As he's bringing up the court, you know they're gonna 223 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: set screen. So they set a screen with the center 224 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 1: up high, and that hands off p J. Tucker to 225 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: bam Ada Bio, who is one of the best interior 226 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: defenders in the league. So Trey Young faces p J. 227 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 1: Tucker then bam Auta Bio. Then they're like, oh, gotta 228 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: switch that. I guess who's waiting in the next screen, 229 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler. They scouted them so well, they know which 230 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 1: players are gonna come for the screen, and they got 231 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: their best defenders waiting. So now you've got for p J. 232 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: Tucker to bam Outa Bio to Jimmy Butler. You're not 233 00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: even inside the three point arc and there's like nine 234 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 1: seconds left on the shock c lock. The Hawks had 235 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: no flow whatsoever if not for a heroic game from 236 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 1: the kid from uv A DeAndre Hunter. I don't know 237 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: if you guys followed his career. He's the kid who 238 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: missed the game, the first round game when they were 239 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: the number one seed and they lost to the sixteen. 240 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,840 Speaker 1: Hunter was ruled out late in the week and real 241 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: Hooper's new. Oh that's big. He's our best player. Even 242 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: though he was there six man, he was like their 243 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: only future dead sure pro they had other good players, 244 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: but he was definitely going to be like a lottery pick. 245 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: He missed the game, they end up losing. I think 246 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 1: it was UMBC that got him Hunter last night, thirty 247 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 1: five and eleven member John Collins last year was like, oh, 248 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: John Collins, he's worth it, He's worth the contract. Basically, 249 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: Hunter is eating into Collins minutes. I think they're gonna 250 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: look to move him in the off season. Um, but 251 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 1: that's a bad loss. No Jimmy Butler, no Kyle Lowry, 252 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: and you lose that. That's a tough one to swallow. 253 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 1: So the heat prevail. They will likely again I'll say 254 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 1: likely because it's not definitely done. They will likely face 255 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,599 Speaker 1: the seventies sixers. But Philly has a tough one on 256 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: Draft Night against the Raptors. Um, I'm not gonna I'm 257 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: not gonna put Philly through automatically, but they should get through. 258 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: I will also point out without Butler, without Lowry, where 259 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: you gonna turn for offense? Well, of course Victor Oladipo, 260 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: remember that guy? How about that performance for Victorial? It's 261 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: a guy easy to root for. I know in sports 262 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: we we root against guys Villa. Oh, I can't stand 263 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving. Oh that Kevin Durant, that ring chaser I got. 264 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: I got friends who still text me that they don't 265 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: respect Kevin Durant. I can't get with that. What about 266 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: Victor lad twenty three points, made his first four shots, 267 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: and you felt good about the guy? He's twenty nine 268 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:08,640 Speaker 1: years old, he was ascending. Remember this was a number 269 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: two overall pick of the Orlando Magic. Didn't really do anything. 270 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 1: They dump him. In three years, he goes to Okay, 271 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 1: see with Westbrook, can't get on track. Then it happened, 272 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 1: swapped in the Paul George deal. He finds a resurrection 273 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: in Indiana. He's fantastic for two years, and then he 274 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: gets hurt. And then he gets hurt again, and then 275 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 1: he goes to Houston. He's hurt again. The guy. I mean, 276 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm I feel bad reading off how many games he's 277 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: played in his career. The guy played eight games this season, 278 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: he played four last season, played twenty the year before that. 279 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like he can't stay healthy the last 280 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: three years. And this guy was ascending. I mean, he 281 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: was an All NBA guy, twenty three points a game. 282 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: He was an All Star in Indiana. Like it. He 283 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: had one good year, but remember coming out of Indiana, 284 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,200 Speaker 1: he was supposed to be awesome. Anyways, if you add 285 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: Lowry Butler, bam out a bio and you can toss 286 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: in as like I don't know a fourth option Victor Oladipo, 287 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: that ain't bad. They're gonna hang around. Um so I'm 288 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: impressed with that. Sons. Pells listen, Pelicans fought hard. Phoenix 289 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: looks tired. I'll say that I don't know about Game six. 290 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: It would not shock me if the Pells came back 291 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: in one. Phoenix does look gast. I like the strategy 292 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: of just the full court pressure on Chris Paul at 293 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: all times. I don't I'm not gonna make too much 294 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: of the Chris Paul alleged kick of Alvarado. Now we 295 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: know Chris Paul has a history of growing punches. I'll 296 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: just um, I'll just say that, dating back to his 297 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:42,360 Speaker 1: college days at Wake Forest, he uh, just to be polite. 298 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: Chris Paul has now hit two people below the belt. 299 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 1: And let's see what the official NBA says about the 300 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: Alvarado incident. I've only seen one angle. I haven't seen 301 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 1: a second angle yet. I'm sure more's of pruder film 302 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: will turn up this morning. But Chris Paul rises up 303 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: for a jumper, and you know how they like kick 304 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: their leg out sometimes, he basically kicks Alverado right in 305 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: the growing and it's like they're gonna suspend Chris Paul 306 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 1: for that. I doubt it, but he's always under suspicion 307 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 1: for doing something something dirty. Um. I'll quickly go through 308 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: tonight's picks before we get to the draft, because the 309 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: draft is gonna be fascinating. Only two games tonight at 310 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: the NBA. No Zach Levine for the Bulls against the Bucks, 311 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 1: Zach Levine and COVID protocols. That's a rough end of 312 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: the season for Chicago. Man, they exceeded all kinds of expectations. 313 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: And now I'm not gonna speculate too much on Levine, 314 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: but we did it with Brian Winhorse last week. If 315 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: there is a star who demands out, it could be 316 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: Zach Levine in Chicago. We'll see. I like Leavin a lot. 317 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: You guys know him. I'm team Zach Levine. Guys at 318 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: dunking Machine. He makes it look effortless. I'll stand by this. 319 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: Zach Levine plays in the seventies. It's probably averaging thirty 320 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: a game. He plays in the sixties. He's probably Hall 321 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: of Famer like this guy. Just he looks the part. 322 00:16:54,800 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: Incredible talent inside and out, great dunker, a good story. 323 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: I'm rooting for Zach Lavine. I love to get him 324 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: on the next the Lakers teams that I root for. UM, 325 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: I can't, in any way, shape or form pick Milwaukee. 326 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: That's that would be insanity, UM, because they're gonna be 327 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,200 Speaker 1: favored by so much as Line's gonna balloon up. But 328 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: I can't bet. I can't bet hard earned after tax 329 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 1: dollars on the Bulls without Levine. UM. So I'm punting 330 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:24,639 Speaker 1: on that one. But Golden State will win tonight. You 331 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: could take that to the bank. You could actually go 332 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 1: to your banker and say, Jason McIntyre said, Golden State's 333 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 1: gonna win. I would like to put my house on 334 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: the line. Um, Golden State will win. Will they cover? Yes, yes, 335 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 1: they will cover. They will not. I mean they just 336 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: basically jerked around for three quarters. Hopefully they don't sleepwalk 337 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: early because if they would. If they're able to extinguish 338 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: the Nugs in five and Memphis Minnesota goes seven, you 339 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: probably get out at an extra six days rest for 340 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: Curry and Draymond and Clay who. By the way, Clay 341 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:57,919 Speaker 1: does not look like the defensive player he used to be. 342 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: That's very evident. He struggled with Bones High Island on Sunday. 343 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: But Golden State wins. I'll have some props online. By 344 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 1: the way, how about hitting Max Strusce of the heat 345 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: over thirteen and a half points? No cap as my 346 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 1: son likes to say, zero points in the first quarter. 347 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: I was getting worried. Scores, twelve in the second quarter, 348 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 1: no points in the third, scoreless for the first like 349 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: nine minutes of the fourth quarter. I'm like, he hasn't 350 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 1: even shot the ball. What's going on? Finally they draw 351 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: up an a t O for Max. Struce buries the three. 352 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: Thank you cashed. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports 353 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: talk lineup in the nation.

I can't 358 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: remember an NFL draft ever being this highly influenced by 359 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,360 Speaker 1: the gambling lines. Trayvon Walker, as we took talked about, 360 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: has come out of nowhere to be the gambling favor 361 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 1: to go first. Daniel Jeremiah, usual guest on this podcast, 362 00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: has said he doesn't even think it's Adan Hutchison's in 363 00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 1: the mix at this point, and that Doug Peterson, the 364 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:22,400 Speaker 1: new coach in Jacksonville, wants them to draft a lineman 365 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: a quanto from NC State. Meanwhile, Trent Bulky wants Trayvon 366 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: Walker the edge rusher, and there's like a tug of 367 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: war over those two. I mean this means Hutcherson would 368 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,359 Speaker 1: fall to Detroit right at two. You gotta love that 369 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: if you're Detroit hometown, kids stays home. You know, Hudgerson 370 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 1: is like a folk hero in that area. Great story. 371 00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: We had what's his h the guy from PF on 372 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: the podcast this week talking about how just a good kid, 373 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 1: there's a great pick up for the community, like everything. 374 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 1: You gotta love everything about the Hutcheson story. And then 375 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: you go Houston to three, so if it could so, 376 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: where's Cavon Tibotau going? And that's where the draft is 377 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: gonna really pivot at three with whether they go pivot? 378 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: Oh do do they take a chance on Sauce Gardner? 379 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. There are options for Houston, And frankly, 380 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 1: I'm not so certain that anybody hasn't Evan Neil. Remember 381 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: when Evan Neil was supposed to be the number one pick. 382 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 1: So it's like Evan Neil Thibodeaux, um Like, it's very 383 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: uncertain and that volatility has just wrecked the market. Like 384 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: good luck gambling on the NFL draft at this point, 385 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,720 Speaker 1: it is so bonkers. I put out my final mock 386 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 1: draft for two thousand, twenty two one up on Fox 387 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: Sports on Tuesday night. I went with Walker going one. 388 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: I just I don't think. I don't think you could 389 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: take a potential guard in a quantum number one. I 390 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: just don't he's gonna're gonna start him at Garden. You 391 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,719 Speaker 1: took him first. Overall, you can't do that. I think 392 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: Hutchinson falls too to Detroit. I want a quantum third 393 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: to Houston. And I changed it up, guys. I went 394 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: Thibodeaux for word to my New York Jets. I've wanted 395 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: Sauce Gardner forever. I still want Sauce Gardner. What or 396 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: it's gonna hurt even more as if he goes to 397 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: the Giants. But I can't see Sala and the Jets 398 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: passing up on Thibodeaux the addresser. You pair him with 399 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 1: Carl Lawson, Quinn and Williams. Jets are gonna have something 400 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: up front. Not quite the New York Sack Exchange. Shout 401 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: out to my nineteen eighties Jets fans. But Thibodeaux, he's 402 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: gonna be a star in New York. He's a big 403 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: time player. Evan Neil, I have five to the Giants. 404 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 1: I went Panthers. No quarterback, Charles Cross, the lineman from 405 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 1: Mississippi State. The move and if you think big picture, 406 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 1: you zoom out and you're like, do I reach for 407 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: a quarterback or do you kind of do what like 408 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos did. Did you see what the Broncos 409 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: have done? We talked about him at nausea. Build everything out. 410 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 1: Give me the offensive line, get me the defense, give 411 00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: me the receivers, the skill positions. We'll figure out the 412 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: quarterback later. We're not gonna reach for guys and try 413 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: to plug him in and let them fail when you 414 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: don't have the full supporter on them. So if you're Carolina, 415 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 1: let's start building that line. We're not going to find 416 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: a quarterback at six who's gonna come in and totally dominate, right, 417 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: That's just not happening, So you get another alignment. It 418 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 1: makes full sense to me. Seven. I had the Giant 419 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: School and Sauce Gardner, and again that is going to 420 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: sting I'm not gonna lie, guys. I love this kid Gardner. 421 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: He is everything the Jets need to quarterback. Eight Jamison 422 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: Williams and Jamison Williams Alabama. They replaced Ridley, who suspended 423 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 1: for a year for gambling, with another Alabama receiver in 424 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 1: Jamison Williams um Seattle at nine, I have debt Derek 425 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: Stingley Jr. Going to the Seahawks. Seahawks are kind of 426 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: another one of those pivot points. It's like Houston, We're 427 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: not sure. Seattle. I don't know, I don't think they're 428 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: taking a quarterback. Could they? Certainly I don't think they are, 429 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:51,119 Speaker 1: though it doesn't really make a whole hell of a 430 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: lot of sense given everything else, all the other needs 431 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:59,119 Speaker 1: on this team. It's just not very good quarterback is 432 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,360 Speaker 1: Drew lock I'm just I'll leave it at that. Ten 433 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: Jets Garrett Wilson wide receiver. I think he's the best 434 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: receiver in the draft. Huge Garrett Wilson fan eleven. Washington 435 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: Commander's Kyle Hamilton's of the Washington Football Washington Football Club 436 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:16,360 Speaker 1: adds a really good safety culture guy, locker room guy. 437 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 1: Everything positive for Hamilton's. People will say he's sliding, but 438 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: I said this on the Fox Gambling Show we did 439 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 1: with Jeff Schwartz and Sammy Pe We did it on Tuesday, 440 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 1: like Cala Hamilton's not Derwin James and Derwin James felt 441 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: to the teams like it's okay to have safeties go 442 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 1: in the ten of twenty range and and not think 443 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: that they're like bad players. Minnesota twelve Jermaine Johnson, the 444 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: edge from Florida State thirteen. Houston car laftis the kid 445 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: out of Perdue, like Carl laughtis a lot. He's another 446 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 1: culture guy, eats weights, just basically gonna live right at 447 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: the facility and just be smart. I I read somewhere 448 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: a story that he was like on the U S 449 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 1: National water polo team when he was a teenage year Ridiculous. 450 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: I mean, the guys, this insane athlete, You're gonna love him. 451 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: In Houston, Trent McDuffie to the Ravens cornerback at fourteen 452 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 1: Ravens corners again in the old and the way you watch, 453 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 1: Jamaar Chase and company just torched them. They gotta beef 454 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: up the secondary. Jordan Davis the tackle. Love this kid, 455 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,680 Speaker 1: the defensive tackle from George six six threet. What a 456 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 1: home run for the Eagles, especially with Fletcher Cox kind 457 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: of aging. And I'm not going to read off every 458 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 1: single other pick, but I was texting with a couple 459 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: of guys on their way to Vegas where the draft is, 460 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: and basically everybody's just preparing for chaos at the top 461 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: and at the end of the first round. Because if 462 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 1: you notice, I didn't say one quarterback, the sneaky spot 463 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 1: for a quarterback is twenty six. I'm hear in Tennessee. 464 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:50,120 Speaker 1: You look at Tannehill's contract. He has one more year 465 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 1: then they can get out of the deal. Tannehill has 466 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 1: hosted a playoff game in the last two years. They 467 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: have been able to do basically nothing offensively, and they 468 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: have I think two touchdowns passing and four interceptions for 469 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,440 Speaker 1: Tannehill in the last two home playoff games, lost to 470 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:16,439 Speaker 1: the Ravens and lost to the Bengals. Okay, I'm not 471 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: saying they're out on Tannehill. You don't move on for 472 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: him now, but I think you've got to draft something 473 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: or put some pressure on him to be like, Yo, Tannehill, Hey, 474 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 1: your deals up soon, man, we need you to deliver. 475 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: And I just I'm not certain that Tannehill is the 476 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 1: guy in Tennessee. I don't love him personally, So keep 477 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 1: an eye on Tennessee. Obviously, Pittsburgh. In my mock, I 478 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,119 Speaker 1: had what I think a lot of people have, Malik 479 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,760 Speaker 1: Willis um to Pittsburgh and then I think late first 480 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:43,680 Speaker 1: round thirty two, we could see a quarterback sneak it. 481 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: Perhaps can he pick it of Pittsburgh small hands Picket 482 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: go into Detroit to join small hands Jared Goff. Alright, guys, 483 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: one day to the draft, it's gonna be fun, it's 484 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: gonna be wild. I'm tiring, I'm I'm tinkering with the 485 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 1: idea of recording the show live at the draft is happening, 486 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 1: so it could be a stream of consciousness thing that 487 00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: that might be too much dead air and too much 488 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: just chaos and ramblings, but I might do it. We 489 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 1: haven't done anything like that again. I opened the show 490 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: four seventy nine episodes. I don't know what we're gonna 491 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 1: do for but if you have any recommendations for a 492 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: guest for the five episode, I'm all ears. All right, 493 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: we'll talk to you tomorrow.
