Uh. Now, I mentioned this a few minutes 254 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: ago because you know, after this week in the NBA, 255 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: I'm at a point now where as happy as I am, 256 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: now I'm scared. It's weird, but I'm scared now, right. 257 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: So the Knicks hied they're hiring. No, no, no, no, no, okay, 258 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 1: I know I know how that sounds. I did not 259 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: do that the right way, like you know, you know, 260 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: I love I love you.

Now, oh hey, thanks got that now, paying attude. 263 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 3: He's trying to figure out and triangulate where he's gonna 264 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 3: run into you in the desert. You can't. 265 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's it. So Mike Brown and I and 266 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,559 Speaker 1: I love Mike Brown, and I told you he was 267 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: the right guy from the beginning, when the day Tims 268 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: got fired, I said, Mike Brown is the guy, and 269 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 1: this is who the Knicks are gonna go get. But 270 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 1: immediately after the Knicks, after news of the Knicks and 271 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: Mike Brown was was was let go right And we're 272 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: waiting for the official word, but the Knicks are getting 273 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: Mike Brown. Immediately, the Knicks became the favorite in the 274 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: Eastern Conference, the betting favorite, the favor I mean, obviously 275 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 1: the injuries to Jason Tatum and Tyre's halliburt and have 276 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: a lot to do with it. And the Bucks, you know, 277 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 1: losing Damian Lillard now and they're trying to rebuild on 278 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: the fly. But the Knicks became the overwhelming favorite in 279 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,679 Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference right away. Didn't have a coach. Hard 280 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: to make a favorite need a coach. Now they have 281 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: a coach Boom and all of a sudden they are 282 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: the favorites, and they should be because they have the 283 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: most talented roster. You saw how far they got this year, 284 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: and it was an incredible playoff run by the Pacers 285 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: in a miracle shot by Halliburton, which beats them in 286 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 1: Game one and one of the biggest comebacks that we've 287 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: never seen before in NBA history. But now I'm scared. 288 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: Now I'm scared because generally in my life, my teams 289 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: do very poorly when there's expectations. By when my teams 290 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: have no expectations, we can be great. And ay, okay, 291 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: when the Jets have no expectations. Also, that's why I 292 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: think we're gonna be five hundred this year. We're gonna 293 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: be an eight to nine win team and stay in 294 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: the playoff. We have no ex But last two years, 295 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 1: huge expectations. We were terrible, right, and the Mets every 296 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: time expectations terrible, now have expectations. They didn't have it. 297 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: They were always a team up and coming very grudgingly. 298 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,840 Speaker 1: That God credit, Yes, Jalen Brunson is a star. Finally 299 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 1: will admit he's a star after it was a star 300 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: for like two years. Oo, will finally met he's a star. 301 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: Finally admit the Knicks are on the right track. Finally 302 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: will admit that they're doing the right thing. This is 303 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: how it's going for the Necks. But now suddenly they've gone, oh, 304 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,080 Speaker 1: now they're the favorites, and this is what scares me, 305 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: because I really am. I am. My teams scare me 306 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: when there's expectation because they have never been able to 307 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: handle it. They've never be able to handle be in a 308 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: position of succeeding and handling success. And here are the 309 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: Knicks now, who came within a whisker of the NBA 310 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: Finals and lost to a team that they probably should 311 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: have beaten and instead, now, okay, now we're installved. How 312 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: is this going to go? I'm it's great, but now 313 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 1: I'm anxious and I'm scared because I know, and I 314 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: don't know this more than other than the history of 315 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: the last forty years, that my teams don't do well 316 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: in this situation. Yeah, I mean, part of it is 317 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: you become number one by default, so you know, expectation 318 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 1: is you're a little better than all these other flawed teams. 319 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 3: So you know, you can take some solace in that. 320 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 3: I believe, because you know, as we talked about earlier 321 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 3: in the week, it becomes the hey who's ready to 322 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 3: volunteer to be the leader and everybody steps back. 323 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 1: The Knicks didn't step back. They're the same team with 324 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: a couple of additions that make you kind of go eh, 325 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: and then you add it finally added a coach, So 326 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: there's really nothing substantive that changed about them, whereas every 327 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 1: other team lost huge to injury. 328 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 3: Right, we would have been talking about it last season 329 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 3: of going, hey, all those guys coming back healthy, don't know, 330 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 3: don't know? And then you make the deal and cat 331 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 3: and all that, and he plays through and now you 332 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 3: at least know where to some level your floor is. 333 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 3: Will they have a better rounded out roster? I gotta 334 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 3: assume so part of the reports that we had was 335 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 3: not just players may have been bristling with tib know 336 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 3: and quote, we don't know our roles. 337 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: You know your roles. There's only seventy year that are 338 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: gonna play. Unless things go to hell, then the other 339 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: guys get off the bench. 340 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 3: We knew that. 341 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: But to that point it'll be a deeper rotation. It'll 342 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: be a little more of a flow to where Brunson 343 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: isn't working as hard as he is for forty two 344 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: minutes a game. So yeah, by default you step forward. 345 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: Does that mean you're great? No, just means everybody else 346 00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 1: step back.

But I will tell you this, I don't 420 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: know the odds because you have to really get involved 421 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: to get them right. You have to really get involved 422 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: to get them. But with seventy six being his record 423 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 1: here in the in the hot dog eating contest, he's 424 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: coming back after your way.

I would go, if I'm betting, 427 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: I know the over under is seventy one and a 428 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 1: half hot dogs, I'd say, what odds you give me 429 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: for eighty? He's gonna hit the eighty mark tomorrow because 430 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,159 Speaker 1: he wants it. He knows he's extra motivated after missing 431 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,360 Speaker 1: last year and beating Kobayashi as bad as he did 432 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,359 Speaker 1: a few months ago. Give me eighty for him tomorrow 433 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: to win. I will take over eighty. 434 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm trying to find I've got a bunch of 435 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 3: the prop that's out here. To win by twenty five 436 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 3: or more hot dogs is fifteen to one. To win 437 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 3: by twenty or more is plus four fifty So four 438 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,160 Speaker 3: and a half to one for your dollar. 439 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 1: So the hot dog spread is twenty five, is what 440 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: you're saying. Basically, the spread is twenty five hot dogs. 441 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 3: Well, then let's see, I'm trying to look at the 442 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 3: other individuals here. 443 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,880 Speaker 1: Because the odds actually let me, let me do this 444 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: for you. The odds for any other eater plus seven 445 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 1: seventy five, wow, for anybody else. So it's so anybody, 446 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: anybody with chestnut yep, wow, chestnut or the field, you 447 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: get plus seven seventy. 448 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 3: Five, will the world record be broken? Plus two seventy five? Okay, 449 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 3: So in your theory, you can nearly triple your money 450 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 3: because look, that's what you think, right, you have to 451 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 3: because eighty three last year, in that competition he did 452 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 3: against Kobayashi, the type of dog it was, well, but 453 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 3: it's showing the gastronomic power. But what you now, it 454 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 3: wasn't a Nathan's hot dog. 455 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 1: No, but it wasn't sanctioned. I don't think that was sanctioned. No, no, 456 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: it's not. But that's what I'm saying, though, like we've 457 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: seen him cross that threshold by all measurements. 458 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 3: It was a hot dog, right, I mean it was 459 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 3: and it was. 460 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 1: But it's like when Rocky fought Drago there was there 461 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: was no money and no belt, right, it was that's right. 462 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,600 Speaker 1: He was fighting to avenge Apollo. Right, That's what it was. 463 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 3: But I'm just saying, we've already done the theory testing 464 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 3: last year against Kobayashi. Can he cross that threshold if 465 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 3: he wants to push himself? And here he wanted to 466 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 3: bludgeon the rival, because remember, Kobayashi became this thing, right, 467 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 3: the little one hundred and five pounds, soaking wet guy 468 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 3: who had tested the boundaries of how much he could 469 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 3: make his stomach extend and extend, and he had a 470 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 3: tops Allen and Ginter card. I still have it from 471 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 3: back in the day celebrating his greatness. I also have 472 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 3: a Joey chestnutrookie if you want one of those. I 473 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 3: don't have any of the autographs. Unfortunately there's no reversal 474 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 3: cards out there, but there were certified autographs. 475 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,360 Speaker 1: Why the hell would you want a reversal car? Come on, man, 476 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:20,199 Speaker 1: why would you want that? 477 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 3: Well, it's gonna be encapsulating, and I'm not gonna smell it. 478 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 1: I just know what it is. Oh, oh, it's a 479 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: scratching stiff card. Oh guess Oh it smells them. It 480 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: smells awful. 481 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 3: Special. Will the contest feed get hacked by peta? 482 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: Ah? This is hey. Part of what's on there, part 483 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: of it is a game used hot dog. We can't 484 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 1: we throw right out there. We can put that right 485 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 1: on there, don't. Well, I mean think about it. 486 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 3: If he goes right to signing your card after ingesting 487 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 3: all that, I mean there's some hot dog juices for you. 488 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 1: If the card is dipped in the hot dog juices 489 00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: like that, I think that's a thing.

Well, they were to do it out of 722 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 1: the spotlight with a lot of number one picks, and 723 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: they had the perfect blend. They obviously they have a 724 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 1: superstar and Jay Gilgess Alexander and and here come the Thunder. Right, 725 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,879 Speaker 1: they're perfectly set up team to win. Hey, who could 726 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: be the Thunder of next season? Or the Rockets who 727 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: had the same type of regular season as the as 728 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: the Thunder did, accept the Thunder one of the titles. Well, okay, hey, 729 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,240 Speaker 1: look at Orlando. They got a superstar and Palo upon Carrow. 730 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 1: They make the big trade for Desmond Bain. Hey, Orlando's 731 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 1: going to be a top three team in the East 732 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 1: next year. Now, how about who could be the Pacers 733 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: of next season? Up forty five fifty win team with 734 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 1: some talent that you understand that they're good, maybe you 735 00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:54,399 Speaker 1: don't get how good they really are, and they could 736 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,879 Speaker 1: have some kind of run in the playoffs where they 737 00:35:56,920 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 1: take teams by surprise. They have a deer team. Then 738 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: you think they do. They're coached very well, and all 739 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 1: of a sudden they just jump onto the national spotlight 740 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,840 Speaker 1: and make a big run through the playoffs, just like 741 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,399 Speaker 1: the Pacers did. Let me tell you the team I'm 742 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: gonna give you, Mike Carmen. Don't do it next ye 743 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 1: don't do it. That city already hates you. No, no, no, no, 744 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:20,800 Speaker 1: no no no. The Knicks. Knicks are going to the finals. 745 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: We're fine, the Knicks, We're going to final. It's fine. 746 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 1: Well they hate you too, No, it's absolutely fine. 747 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 3: You don't go to New York City anyway, so you're okay. 748 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 1: I haven't been back to New York in a while. 749 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: I was just thinking about that the other day. I 750 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 1: guess I go to Detroit more than I go to 751 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 1: go to New York. Well, that's why I figured you 752 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:39,360 Speaker 1: were gonna try to get mad at you again. I 753 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: felt what you did to the Lions, and and that's 754 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 1: who I'm gonna get mad at me. What are you doing? 755 00:36:45,080 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 1: The Pistons can be the Pacers of next season. Right, 756 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:53,240 Speaker 1: you can't go home again. Obviously they've lost a couple 757 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,240 Speaker 1: of guys, right, and look they they lost Dennis Shrewder. Fine, 758 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 1: they're most likely gonna lose ma Leak Beasley. Uh for 759 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 1: just be a oh well, I mean they're not going 760 00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: to re sign him, rather because I think Malik Beasley's 761 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: in a little bit of trouble with the end. 762 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 3: How great is it that that this doesn't have to 763 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 3: work on your books to where you have to go 764 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 3: in front of the league and beg them on your 765 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 3: hands and knees. Can we get some sort of cap 766 00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:18,880 Speaker 3: relieve for this guy? Oh wait, he's a free agent? 767 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: Hey? Can I could we negate that offer that we 768 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: just sent out to him? Right? So you needed to 769 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,760 Speaker 1: fix and and and figure out you know, some production 770 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,360 Speaker 1: there that you lost. But you go out and get LeVert, 771 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 1: you go get Duncan Robinson. We've seen Duncan Robinson heat 772 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 1: his way up in the playoffs. They have not just 773 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: filled their holes going to next season, but I think 774 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 1: they've augmented them a little bit. Plus, you're gonna get 775 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 1: a return to health by Jade and Ivy who played 776 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:51,919 Speaker 1: thirty games last year and he is terrific. I can 777 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,359 Speaker 1: see the Pistons being that team that hey, yeah, fifty wins, Hey, 778 00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 1: that's great. Look the Hey, the big success story of 779 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 1: the Pistons continues. Look what a great story they are. 780 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,840 Speaker 1: They're winning. It's really fun. And then all of a sudden, 781 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,799 Speaker 1: Cad Cunningham becomes Tyre's Halliburton the playoffs and suddenly the 782 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,319 Speaker 1: Pistons take off and it's a couple of upsets. Look, 783 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 1: the series with the Knicks was closer than it then 784 00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 1: it looked on paper, and what you saw. If I'm 785 00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 1: looking for a teen, they could be the Pacers of 786 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 1: next season. Give me the Pistons. 787 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 3: They're certainly a curiosity as we go forward. They are 788 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:27,440 Speaker 3: at plus thirteen hundred to win the Eastern Conference. That 789 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 3: rates them as the sixth favorite. Certainly superstars, and you 790 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:34,720 Speaker 3: did try to make them happen. 791 00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: What was it three years ago? Four years ago? And 792 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,920 Speaker 1: oh yeah, yeah, yeah, I was way ahead. I was 793 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: way ahead, way ahead as you as you go through, 794 00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:47,320 Speaker 1: I'm looking at Toronto at fifty plus fifty five hundred 795 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,279 Speaker 1: if we want to go down that road of let's 796 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: go long shot and upset the apple cart, because you know, 797 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 1: Milwaukee's a bit of a price shot right now, but 798 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 1: you know it's still some work to do and still 799 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 1: a superstar who they decide, Hey, you know that picture 800 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:03,760 Speaker 1: I put up of all my trophies and whatever. 801 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna take those and we're actually gonna move 802 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 3: with those. So potentially some chaos there. But as we 803 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 3: sit with the Raptors right now looking at some depth opportunities, RJ. 804 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 3: Barrett's kind of stepped into his own. Still some guys 805 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,839 Speaker 3: with some injury history, but Grady Dick and some others 806 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 3: who are still looking to make to that next level. 807 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:30,319 Speaker 3: So yeah, at plus fifty five hundred, the active desperation 808 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:34,160 Speaker 3: that they're the last last team standing when the injuries 809 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:35,640 Speaker 3: start to fall, y'all. 810 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,240 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, man, give me the They're young, they're 811 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,359 Speaker 1: on the rise. They look like they're ready to win. 812 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: They didn't go into the playoffs thinking, hey, we're just 813 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: happy to be here and look where we're back.
