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 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: Sports Radio hour or two on this Tuesday, Dan and 3 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:10,119 Speaker 1: The Dance Dan Patrick Show. Jalen Rose from the mother 4 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: Ship will join us. Coming up, Lebron James could be 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,079 Speaker 1: out for a couple of weeks. How's that going to 6 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: impact the West in the playoff picture? Dave Roberts, the 7 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: Dodger manager, will join us in the final outword of 8 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 1: the show. So, Lebron's out with a foot injury, and 9 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: I'm interested to see or hear what the medical diagnosis 10 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: is on this because it didn't look like a I 11 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: stepped on somebody's foot type injury, and Lebron said that 12 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:40,879 Speaker 1: he stepped on a player's foot and it looked like 13 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: he rolled it. I think it was just the shoe 14 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 1: kind of caught, and you know, maybe it's just maybe 15 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: it's a stress fractured there. I mean the foot injuries, 16 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: you know, you know, the NBA's littered with players foot 17 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 1: injuries that don't go away, and it's almost like a 18 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: back injury to a golfer. Those things don't go away. 19 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 1: But you know, given that he's got how many years, 20 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: how many miles on that body, that we shouldn't be 21 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: surprised that he does start to break down, but hopefully 22 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: it's not, you know, serious. We have LaMelo balls out 23 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: for the rest of the year. He broke his ankle 24 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: last night, but Lebron right now out for it looks 25 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 1: like a couple of weeks. Yes, Marv, did you see 26 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 1: why we were on break that Brownie top ten projected pick. 27 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: Win Horse said it on our show. I was like, 28 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: I didn't realize he would be that high. Well, Brian 29 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: win Horse joined us before we went on break and 30 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: he said, you know, you're going to be surprised at 31 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: the grade that he's going to get by ESPN's draft expert. 32 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: And I thought, okay, first round draft pick. And then 33 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: when we got done with the show, I you know, 34 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: was contacted by somebody at ESPN. They said, how about 35 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: top fifteen? I go really, And then I think it 36 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: ended up that he's a top ten so far. Yeah, Seed, Yeah, 37 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: it saw us up there right while we're on the 38 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 1: break that he had just in the last year or so, 39 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 1: his game has just he's added like this level of 40 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: explosiveness that wasn't there. He grew a little bit, he 41 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: filled out defensively, He's a much better player that he's 42 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: really figured something out in this past year. Yeah, I 43 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: thought his younger brother would be the star because he's 44 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: got hight. They obviously have athleticism. But I watched Bronnie play, 45 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: and I always do this test. I I if somebody 46 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: doesn't know lebron james son is playing, I always say 47 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: pick out Lebron James's son, and they rarely picked Ronnie 48 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: because you're picking the best player on the floor and 49 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: Bronnie doesn't stand out. You know, he's sixty three. But 50 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,839 Speaker 1: but he's a good player. I mean, he's a really 51 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: good player. But I don't know how that translates to 52 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: the NBA, Like what does he do really well that 53 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: he's going to find a spot for a team? And 54 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure. I don't I haven't talked to 55 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: somebody who studied this, just you know, I'm reading the 56 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: reports like everybody else. But when I do watch him, 57 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: it's like when I watched Lamello when he was a 58 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 1: freshman in high school and he had he had size, 59 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: he had no discipline whatsoever. But I thought he was 60 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: going to be the best player out of the family 61 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 1: because he could shoot, he had a handle, he had 62 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,640 Speaker 1: some hype and he had some swag to him, and 63 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: then he goes to Europe, comes back and he was 64 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 1: must sy TV there for a while. You can see 65 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: this sometimes and then other players where you go, I 66 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: did not see that at all, or they're really good, 67 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: like Purvis Ellison was great as freshman year at Louisville. 68 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: I just don't know if he got any better after 69 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: his freshman year at Louisville. But then you'll have these 70 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,839 Speaker 1: guys where you go. That guy was kind of good. 71 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: Wow have you seen him now? That guy who gets 72 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: to be twenty two, twenty three, twenty four, and they're 73 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: a completely different player than when they were eighteen or nineteen. Yeah. Point, 74 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: This is like a two part question. Can an NBA 75 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: franchise look at Bronnie James basketball only or are they 76 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: going to be compelled to? And the business side of 77 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: it say like we're drafting the most famous eighteen year 78 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 1: old on Earth basically if you look at it, I 79 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: don't know how many people are more famous hid that 80 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 1: play sports on Earth. Like if you're the tenth pick 81 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 1: of the draft, Washington at the tenth pick this year, 82 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 1: they took Johnny Davis at Wisconsin. I don't know how 83 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 1: many tickets sales Johnny Davis drove if they took if 84 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: they had the tenth pick next year and took Bronnie James, 85 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 1: all a sudden, You're gonna send thousands of season tickets. 86 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: You have a face, a household name coming in when 87 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: none of these guys are household names. And doesn't that 88 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 1: set up Bronnie James for being a disappointing player by 89 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: being taken higher than his basketball abilities. Maybe should Yes, 90 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 1: I think he, you know, Lebron lived up to the 91 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 1: hype and then some Bronnie and Ronnie didn't bring this 92 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: on himself. He's just his dad, is you know Lebron James. 93 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: But here's Lebron at fifteen sixteen on the covers Sports Illustrated. 94 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: You're the chosen one, You're the king. Well you better 95 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: be damn good, Bronnie. We're just looking at and going, 96 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 1: all right, let's see what you have. I don't know, 97 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: I don't know what he does really well, and he 98 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: might just do a lot of different things. But if 99 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 1: I'm a team and I'm like Washington, sure i'd take him. Well, now, 100 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: I don't think Lebron is gonna immediately automatically go to 101 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 1: that next team, like he wants to play with Bronnie. 102 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: And maybe I was under the impression Lebron thought, maybe 103 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: Bronnie doesn't get drafted, therefore he can join the team 104 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: that Lebron is on. But if he's a top ten pick, 105 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: oh that changes things. Yes, more. I think Brinie's known 106 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: around the high school community or whatever. I think he's 107 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: known as a shooter, like a three and D guy. 108 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: I think he's a really good defensive player and a 109 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: really good shooter, so he might be a three and 110 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: D guy. I don't know much else about him game wise, Yeah, 111 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: but he does have some highlights. It's just you know, 112 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: there you're comparing him to his dad, which is an 113 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: unfair comparison obviously, Yeah, Poe, Sometimes this coverage of him 114 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 1: feels like wishful rankings, like he has ranked you know, 115 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: if you look at these ranking lists, he's in the thirties, 116 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 1: forties and fifties of high school players. But when they 117 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: announce the McDonald's All American team is led by Bronnie James, 118 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: No, no no, no, there's twenty guys better officially ranked than him. 119 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: There was this summer league thing going on and said 120 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna be led by Lebron james son. It didn't 121 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 1: even put his full name in it, It just said 122 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: Lebron James's son. The coverage may do him a disservice 123 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: and he can't control it. Who has a better chance 124 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 1: at success Tiger Wood's son, Lord Lebron James's son, because 125 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 1: you watch Tiger's son and he's Tiger. I mean he 126 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: doesn't hit it as far, but attitude, swing, all of 127 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: those things, and it feels like in golf, it's just you, 128 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: you develop you. I don't have to worry about like competition. 129 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: Nobody's guarding me. Bronnie is not going to be six seven, 130 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: six eight like his dad, all right? Can he can 131 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: he lead a team? Is he a starter? Is he 132 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: a three in D guy? I don't know, And you know, 133 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: maybe Jalen Rose will have some insight into that. But 134 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: Bronnie jumped up pretty quick because I think he went 135 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: from like the ranked twenty fourth in his class to 136 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: now he might be a top ten draft pick. That's 137 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: pretty wild. Lebron, as I said, is out with a 138 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: foot injury. We don't have any other update on that, 139 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: but foot injuries are are scaring Bill Walton. Bill Walton 140 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: famously had all kinds of surgeries and it ruined his career. 141 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: I mean it cut short his career because of all 142 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: those injuries. I think he had one that was, you know, 143 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: misdiagnosed there. But Lebron and you know, you have this opportunity, 144 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 1: You got some youth, you got some energy with this 145 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: new team, you got rid of Westbrook and Beverly, and 146 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: it just felt like this was a team that you 147 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: didn't want to face in a seven game series. All right, 148 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,880 Speaker 1: eight seven seven three d P show email address DP 149 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: at Dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at dp show 150 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: whole question from our one it was pretty specific. It 151 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 1: was about Carson Wentz, who was cut by the Commanders yesterday. Yeah, 152 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: what Dan, But we expanded the option slightly to Carson Wentz, 153 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: will become a career backup, go home, or get another 154 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: shot to lead a team? Twelve percent say get another 155 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 1: shot to lead a team? How about that? Yeah, I 156 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 1: don't see that happening. Yeah, but fifty four percent have 157 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 1: him becoming a career backup. By the way, the weight 158 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 1: is over.

I hate to see some of these young 165 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: quarterbacks get drafted and just thrown to the wolves right away. 166 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: There are obviously some guys that are ready for it, 167 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: and then there's some guys that are not, and that's 168 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: really struggle and I think that's what hinders some careers. 169 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 1: What would you guys think if Houston signed Wentz to 170 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 1: like a two maybe three year deal, then when out 171 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: drafted a quarterback, let him sit and learn, because I mean, 172 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: can it really get much worse for Houston? No? But 173 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to bring Carson Wentz in 174 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 1: and have him. It just feels like there's baggage that 175 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: you're bringing in. And do I want him helping a 176 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: young quarterback like Carson Wentz wants to start. I'm guessing 177 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: these you know that's I had a problem with far 178 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: of not helping Aaron Rodger when he first got there, 179 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: But then I talked to Brett about that, and he said, look, 180 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: I'm the starter. He's got to catch up with me. 181 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 1: You know, that's just the way it works in the NFL. 182 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: And I was like, Okay, he goes when he's ready 183 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: to play, then I'm not going to be playing. It's 184 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: not my job to get you ready. And I was like, okay, 185 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,439 Speaker 1: I mean it's like Steve Young with Joe Montana. Steve 186 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: Young waited his turn. I don't know if Joe Montana 187 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: helped Steve Young at all, and probably didn't, but you know, 188 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 1: Joe Montana talked about this before with me and he said, 189 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: the backups job is to get the starter ready. It's 190 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: not my job to help the backup get ready to start. 191 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: Help me take your dab? Hey, can you slow down. 192 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 1: I'm taking notes on how to take your job. Yeah, okay, yeah, yeah. 193 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: I'll go over it again with you later for brunch 194 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: and I'll give you some tips how to take my job. 195 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: I go play for Orlando Dog in North Carolina. Hi, Doug, 196 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 1: what's on your mind today? Damn? This is going to 197 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: sound like a non sequitur, but I promise you it's not. 198 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: But the best sports biography I've ever read was Andrea 199 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: Agassi's Open, which is three four hundred pages of him 200 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 1: just talking about how much he hated tennis yep, but 201 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: his father loved it yep. And he talks about one 202 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: of the reasons he fell in love with stephie Graff 203 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: as she grew up hating tennis but her father loved it. 204 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 1: And I thought about that when you guys were talking 205 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: about Carson wentz about you know, the guy accomplished his dream. Well, 206 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: maybe it wasn't this dream. I think we'd be shocked 207 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: by how many professional athletes got into it, kind of 208 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: looking for parental approval or knowing that yeah, I don't know, 209 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: I don't know the guy, I don't know his relationship 210 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: with his father. But I think we'd be shocked by 211 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: how many young athletes are out there chasing their parents' dreams, 212 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: who are living vicariously through that. I think those are 213 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: all valid points done and thank you, and the Andre 214 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: Agassy book is one of those where you want to 215 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:56,200 Speaker 1: talk about somebody who laid open, you know everything about them, 216 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 1: who they are, who they were, who they thought they were, 217 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: a lot of things. That was a powerful book. Andrea 218 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 1: Agassi Jason in California. Hey Jason, what's on your mind today? 219 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: Good morning guys. Real quick to pull my question, I 220 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: just want to say Seaton probably Marvin Prince. That's my 221 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: order for the back room, guys, real quick. The Dodgers 222 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: didn't do too much in the off season. Do you 223 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: think they're saving up some tables to go out through 224 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: a Taney next year to new Maybe need to get 225 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: that out of Roberts. Well, I don't know if I 226 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: can ask him if they're interested in show Autani. Well, 227 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: I could ask him, he probably would not be able 228 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: to answer that. Are they saving up their money? Yeah? Sure, 229 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: why not? If I could get show Autani now you 230 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: put him in a Dodger uniform for the world to see. Yeah, absolutely, yes, Marv. 231 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: They're the Dodgers. They probably don't even have to save 232 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: my I was gonna say that, but well, if you're 233 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: Dave Roberts and yes you want show Heyotani, who wouldn't, 234 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 1: Yung poet. I don't know how show Heyotany his agent. 235 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 1: Don't look at Mike Trout's past ten years ago. We 236 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: gotta get, we gotta play in October. We got you know, 237 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 1: to miss the Angel's dads are against him playing October. 238 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: It's just they are the history. Yeah, it's not personal, 239 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: it's just the history of it. Yep. Yeah. But he's 240 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: still stood out though. Show Heyotani is still the most 241 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: recognizable player in baseball. Him and Aaron Judge, I would say, 242 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,719 Speaker 1: you know, but regular season, you imagine if you got 243 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: him into the postseason and he started a game and 244 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,959 Speaker 1: then maybe homered in that game, you know, then that's 245 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: when things change. You know, you get that opportunity. You know, 246 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: I always go back to bo Jackson. Bo Jackson had 247 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: a couple of moments where you're like, I'll never forget 248 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: him touchdown run and when he ran out of the 249 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: end zone into the tunnel, when he knocked over Brian 250 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: Bosworth in the All Star Game where he homered and 251 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,439 Speaker 1: then climb the wall make it a catch. You know, 252 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: you have those moments there. You know, when Dion told 253 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: who was it Clemson that he's taken the punt back 254 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: like I'm taking it back, and that he did when 255 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 1: he was at Florida State. Like these signature moments that 256 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: you have with some of these athletes. Yampoint. In the 257 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 1: past decade, the Angels have made the postseason once in 258 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: the past decade, the Dodgers have missed the postseason. Once there, 259 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 1: it is, well, is he gonna be a five hundred 260 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: million dollar guy? And the question is how long Kenny pitch? 261 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: How long is he going to do both? And then 262 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: you always had that something could happen. Tommy John surgery, 263 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: you know, at age twenty eight, so he'll get this 264 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 1: opportunity when he's twenty nine. You probably want to sign 265 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: a ten year deal. Seems like that's the going rate, 266 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: ten year deal at five hundred million dollars, which doesn't 267 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 1: sound horrible. I mean, if if I look how many 268 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: games I get with him in the lineup or him 269 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: pitching or both. So if you start to, you know, 270 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: kind of monetize that, then you know you can make 271 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: that work. But who has you know how many organizations 272 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: franchises are going to have five hundred million dollars padres 273 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: are given out three hundred and fifty million dollars contracts 274 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: to everybody. I like that, But Manny Machado opted out 275 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 1: to then get an extension. I'm like, okay, and you 276 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 1: can still got to pay Soto. What's he worth? You 277 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 1: got tatis under contracts. I mean they have a big 278 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: market team. I don't think you can say that you're 279 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: not anymore. Yes time, where's all this money coming from 280 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: the football team? Left? They've got No hadn't had a 281 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: basketball team in a long time, no hockey team. Just 282 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: all the money in the world of San Diego just 283 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: goes into the baseball team. I'm not sure where they're 284 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: getting their money from, but I know that they're spending 285 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: their money wherever they're get He should try out for 286 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: the Podecast radio show.

I 290 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: don't want to get him into I've gotten people in 291 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 1: trouble before by asking those questions, like when I asked 292 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: Steve Kerr when he was with the Phoenix Suns if 293 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: he was interested in Lebron James, I think, and then 294 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: he joked and said, yeah, we're we could offer him 295 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: the mid level, you know, or veterans exemption or I 296 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: think that cost him ten thousand dollars.

I don't know. That's when I first 343 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 1: heard that. I thought of me, myself and eye. That 344 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: was kind of popular song. But we exafinitely did say 345 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 1: Dela's Soul. I said it. I was agreeing with you, 346 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: he said, But I just said, me myself and eye. 347 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: Oh my god, they bring in Jalen Rose. See what 348 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: I deal with every dank you? I mean, somehow I 349 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 1: make man trek here. But DayLA's Soul. Did you ever 350 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 1: see uh, George Clinton, did you ever see Parliament? Absolutely? 351 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: I'm the youngest of four, And just so you know, 352 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: I was born in seventy three, and I remember my 353 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 1: childhood and just seeing the smoke rise from the basement 354 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 1: and going downstairs, and my brothers had these red and 355 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 1: blue police lights and these streamers coming from the stealing 356 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: where I was an uninvited guest in my old house. 357 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: And I started to realize with a lot of those 358 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: records meant. And one time I took one of those 359 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: clips with them the feather on the end exactly, and 360 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: put it on my hands and took it to school 361 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: one day, and I definitely got in trouble for doing 362 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: so because I didn't know what it was. So absolutely, Parliament, Africa, Bambada, 363 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 1: George Clinton, all of those groups were heavily a part 364 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: of my childhood. What was the smoke that was coming 365 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: out of the basement, Oh, it just had a different 366 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 1: smell that was to back off to call it refa 367 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: back in the day, ESPN NBA analyst and the thirteenth 368 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:09,400 Speaker 1: overall picked by the Nuggets. Yes, indeed, nineteen nineteen ninety four, 369 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 1: Jaylon would be part of the Boston Celtics All Access 370 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,400 Speaker 1: tomorrow Walter Wall coverage of the team, followed by the 371 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 1: Cavs Celtics at seven thirty Eastern. I've been talking about 372 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 1: Lebron's injury. He said he stepped on somebody's foot, but 373 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: he didn't like. What do you see with that injury? 374 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: And it's always tricky for any athlete to have a 375 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: foot injury. Absolutely, it's a recurring thing for him, first 376 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: and foremost, he had dealt with a foot injury already. 377 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 1: It looked like his takeoff was a little awkward when 378 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: he landed. He didn't want to put any pressure on 379 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: the injured foot, and he's thirty eight years of age. 380 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,199 Speaker 1: Dan he still finished the game. The Lakers had an 381 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: amazing comeback in a win at Dallas, And I'm pretty 382 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 1: sure of that pain, that soreness continues to permeate. Now 383 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:02,679 Speaker 1: obvious slee If he's gonna miss x amount of games 384 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: and X amount of weeks, that's gonna doom their playoff potential. 385 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 1: But I admire lebron how he's performed this year, being 386 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: becoming the NBA's all time leading score leading that Lakers 387 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: team that while they're on the marquee, when you look 388 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: put on some binoculars and you look closer at the standings, 389 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 1: they're still like thirteen. So I applaud him for what 390 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: he's trying to do for that club all year. I 391 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 1: saw where ESPN has draft rankings and Bronnie James is 392 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: a top ten ranking right now, And I mean that 393 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: was quick because I thought he was, you know, maybe 394 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:44,199 Speaker 1: in the top thirty or forty in his class. And 395 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: I don't know, is this with a wishful ranking to 396 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: put Bronnie in there as a top ten pick for 397 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: the draft. What the one thing about sports is if 398 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 1: it's wishful or not, you still have to get out 399 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: there and play against the best of the best. And 400 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: I've watched him grow as an athlete as a player, 401 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: improve his strength, improve his athleticism, improve his jump shot, 402 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: improve his handle when he was younger, it almost feels 403 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: a little as a former player, and obviously doing this 404 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:23,120 Speaker 1: job for a living, what line do we draw covering 405 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:27,240 Speaker 1: these young players? So are we gonna say top fifth grader, 406 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: top seventh grader. That feels a little predatory to me. 407 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: But now as he's gotten into high school and become 408 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 1: a McDonald's All American, a legit candidate for the status 409 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 1: that you just acknowledge his spear to cover him and 410 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:47,680 Speaker 1: cover him righteously, and I think it's well deserved. Talking 411 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 1: to Jalen Rose, you know what I noticed a lot 412 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 1: of times we'll look at a game and there's a 413 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: big comeback, and we'll go, is this about the team 414 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 1: that lost the leader? The team that ended up coming back? 415 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 1: Lakers against the Mavericks. One thing that stood out is 416 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: Lucas got to stop complaining about every call Jayleen like. 417 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure he gets a handful of calls 418 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 1: every game, but man does he whine. It's not just Luca, damn, 419 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: it's most of the players in the league actually complain 420 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 1: after every call. One of the things I learned as 421 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 1: a player. Just think about this, Each time the whistle 422 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 1: was blown, the team that receives the call and their 423 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 1: fan base is happy. The opposite happens when it goes 424 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 1: against you. You never seen a player say, you know what, 425 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: that was a weak call. That was a bad call. 426 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: I don't want to shoot these free throws. Well know, 427 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,360 Speaker 1: I had to raise my hand when I found somebody, 428 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 1: maybe like twenty four, all right, even if I didn't 429 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,000 Speaker 1: think I found him, I had to raise my hand up. 430 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: Now they don't do that now. No, that's definitely changed 431 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: in the game. But I'll tell you what. As dominant 432 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: as Luca has been so very young in his career, 433 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: the one thing that I saw from the mass that 434 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 1: I did not like. I don't like to see the 435 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: best players taking turns to try to get off. I 436 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: like to see them working together to make each other better. 437 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:23,840 Speaker 1: So adding Kyrie shouldn't mean he and Luca play together 438 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: but then one has to be out of the game 439 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: for the other one to really be at their apex, 440 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 1: and that played itself out in that game, and that's 441 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: why they ended up losing. There's a documentary about mak 442 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: Mud abdul Rauf, who I thought had the quickest handle 443 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 1: prior to when he was Chris Jackson at LSU before 444 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: he changed his name. That was quickest handle I'd ever seen. 445 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,879 Speaker 1: And then you got Kyrie, and Kyrie's probably got the 446 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: best handle in the history of the sport. Would you 447 00:25:54,640 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: say he's in the conversation. I always wonder growing up 448 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: what it would be like if the Harlem globetrot has 449 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 1: played in the NBA, Like what if Marcus Haynes or 450 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: Curly Neil played in the NBA. And two guys that 451 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,120 Speaker 1: remind me of the two guys I just mentioned are 452 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: Steph Curry and Kyrie Irving. The wizardry they both have 453 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: with the basketball, the ability to jump off both feet, 454 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 1: finished with both hands, and we talk about their great 455 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 1: ball handling, but the beauty to both of their games 456 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 1: is how they're able to shoot with range and accuracy, 457 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: and Steph Curry in particular has taken it to a 458 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 1: whole other level, and to be guys that are considered 459 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 1: slighter built based on the players that they're playing against, 460 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 1: how they're able to finish at the hoop. So, yes, 461 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: when you start talking about greatest handles, Kyrie's definitely in 462 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: the conversation. Isaiah Thomas of My Detroit bad Boys definitely 463 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: has to be in that conversation as well, and rightfully 464 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 1: so Kyrie deserves that acclaim. Did you go to Pistons 465 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:05,400 Speaker 1: games growing up? Well? What had happened? Well, ticket prices 466 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: and then they were playing in Pontiac for a while 467 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 1: at the Silver Dome, which if you grew up in 468 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: Detroit that you got a better chance to get into 469 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: Chicago than you do to the Silverdome, so to speak. 470 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: And then they moved to Auburn Hills. And so I 471 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 1: didn't physically get a chance to go to games when 472 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: I was young, but I did watch all of the 473 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: games on a thirteen inch television sitting on top of 474 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 1: a component set. You know about those with the thirty 475 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: three and the forty five in the thimble. Yeah, and 476 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: so I remember, and when Sacramento and the Clippers just 477 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: played a game, it literally and they like the second 478 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: highest scoring game in the history of the league. It 479 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: took me back to my childhood because I remember staying 480 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,199 Speaker 1: up late and watching the highest point score in the 481 00:27:56,280 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: history of the game, Isaiah Thomas, John Eddie, Kelly Trapuka 482 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:06,600 Speaker 1: playing at Denver alex English, Keke Vanderway. I was physically 483 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: watching that game on Channel sixty two and the legendary 484 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: George Blaha was calling that game. And so as I 485 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: started to get older, obviously I had a chance to 486 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: go to the games, and my father got drafted by 487 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 1: the Pistons, but season tickets wasn't in the budget. Did 488 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: you grow up hating Michael Jordans Absolutely two places that 489 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 1: never cheered for Jordan and celebrated really wearing his shoes. 490 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 1: Fortunate enough, I grew up in Detroit. That was one, 491 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 1: and played in Indiana. That's two. And this is where 492 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: rivalries worth real. And when the Pistons finally beat the Bulls, 493 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, when the Bulls finally beat them. And by 494 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: the way, Isaiah Thomas is the only human being to 495 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: have a winning record against Magic Bird and George. With 496 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,720 Speaker 1: that being said, the Bulls finally beat my bad boys Pistons. 497 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: There was a moment in sports that people look at 498 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: it through a couple of different lenses. We walked off 499 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: the court and didn't shake their hands. You can't tell 500 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: me I wasn't in that line with them. You cannot 501 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: tell me that I wasn't walking off with them. And 502 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: that was a sense of pride that we had as champions, 503 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: and our entire city loved and beloved that team to 504 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: this day, and that was a beautiful rivalry, bad boys 505 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: versus the Chicago Bulls. And MJ helped me understand this 506 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: JJ Reddick controversy that he's talking about today's game and 507 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: if you talk about yesterday's game, he doesn't want to 508 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 1: hear about physicality. Dominique Wilkins got into this and said, 509 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 1: you know that JJ Reddick's take was idiotic. I think 510 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: here it was more physical back in the day because 511 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: you could use the armbar and I could put my 512 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: hand on you. Start there. It's got to be more physical. 513 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 1: But I don't know why JJ has a problem with yesterday. 514 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: I believe if you really just look at how the 515 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 1: rules have changed, the main difference in past basketball in 516 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: today's basketball is physical. Intimidation does not exist, period. It 517 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: does not exist. And so when you know you could 518 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: drive to the basket and not have to get peeled 519 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 1: up off the floor seven or eight times a game. 520 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:32,479 Speaker 1: What does that do? It affects your endurance because falling 521 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: on the floor for eighty two games sticks or seven 522 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 1: times a game means you can't play fifteen or twenty years. 523 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: That means you may be lucky to play ten to 524 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: fifteen years. Also, that physical intimidation we talked about, look 525 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 1: no further than the Jordan rules. Michael Jordan had to 526 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: understand that I need to get stronger, I need to 527 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: improve my jump shot because if I go flying through 528 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: the air with my tongue hanging out, they're gonna knock 529 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: meet to the floor. And this is what I want 530 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 1: to say about when people compare the old to the new. 531 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 1: Of course an iPhone is better than a pager. Of 532 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: course it is, But that doesn't mean that at the 533 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 1: time when we were using pagers or flip phones, they 534 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: didn't mean everything. They meant everything at that time. Yes, 535 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 1: technology is better, and yes the players are more skilled 536 00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: now Dan can dribble past and shoot, they specialize, they 537 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: shoot with better range. But look no further than what's 538 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 1: in an era position basketball. Look at the four or 539 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,880 Speaker 1: the power forward. That guy used to actually be powerful 540 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: and physical. Right now that guy is a player that's 541 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: six eight, two hundred and thirty pounds that play shooting 542 00:31:56,160 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: guard or small forward in high school that's now playing 543 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 1: that position. And so that's where the game has changed. 544 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,479 Speaker 1: The physicality of the game, UM, doesn't exist from an 545 00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: intimidation standpoint. And also players skill level is at an 546 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 1: ultimate maximum that we haven't seen. How badly are you 547 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: rooting for somebody to score eighty two points in a game? 548 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't care really, um, And the and 549 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: the thing is rest in peace to the Black Mamba. 550 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: Like I grew up in the game, and I respect 551 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: the game. And when you get a chance to watch greatness, 552 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: go against greatness and compete against greatness, you're gonna be 553 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: on the wrong side of it. And respectfully, like I 554 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: said in the five dot when we lost in the 555 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: Final four, when we went out after the game, we 556 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,239 Speaker 1: wasn't waiting in line. The team that beat us was 557 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 1: to get into the spot. And I also said that 558 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:05,560 Speaker 1: you can't tell me the last three or five NCAA champions, 559 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 1: So I'll ask you this. We saw Donovan Mitchell score 560 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 1: seventy one. We saw Dame Lillard score seventy one, but 561 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 1: none of those players are going to be I guess 562 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: as attached to those games as I am to the 563 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: Kobe game, respectfully, because I'm famous. That's really what it is. 564 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: Jalen is a common name. My mother created a game 565 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: that's a common name. And so of course if and 566 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: when people think they're trying to clown me, they'll bring 567 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: that up. But at the same time, I'll respect the game. 568 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: I love and miss Kobe Bryant. And news flash, it 569 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 1: ain't one hundred. Got the record. The record is one hundred, everybody. 570 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 1: So when everybody's started to talking about who's the greatest score, 571 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 1: ay who the record is one hundred? Do we know 572 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:10,760 Speaker 1: who was playing against will? No? Nobody was apparently that night. 573 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 1: I love that. I love that. See I would rather compete. 574 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 1: It's like when you have the mercy rule, Like I 575 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,879 Speaker 1: don't want a mercy rule. If you if you, if 576 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,800 Speaker 1: you put up a number on me, I gotta get better. 577 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 1: It's not hey, you gotta help me because my feelings 578 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 1: and not that they do this in an NBA game. 579 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 1: But as you said to me before, I didn't guard 580 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: him the whole game. So they make it seem like 581 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 1: you had Kobe the entire game and he put up 582 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,960 Speaker 1: eighty one on you. Well one day, don't get up. 583 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: They kind of broke down, like the stats of what 584 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,760 Speaker 1: happened in the game. Yeah, and he actually scored eighteen 585 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: points on me. And the funny thing about an NBA 586 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 1: game that happens to players on a nightly basis literally 587 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 1: when somebody scores eighteen points on them. And so again, 588 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:05,919 Speaker 1: if you're around long enough and you get a chance 589 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: to compete against greatness, some of the times you're on 590 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: the wrong side of Brady Thorne six or seven touchdowns, 591 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: or you know, Michael Jordan putting up a historic game, 592 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: or Steph Curry making you know, ten three pointers in 593 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 1: the game. It just it's going to happen. And it 594 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 1: happened to me, it happened to our raptors. And and 595 00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: and I'm actually glad it was Kobe Bryant because this 596 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: is the same Kobe Bryant, by the way, that wouldn't 597 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: be low manager. Yeah, okay, and so that should be 598 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 1: the guy that has the second highest scoring game in 599 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,800 Speaker 1: the history of the NBA. So you locked up Kobe 600 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: is what you're saying. Yeah, I held him under the 601 00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: no you you he only got eighteen like less point. 602 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 1: There's got to be one of your teammates walking around going, man, 603 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,399 Speaker 1: I hope they don't break this down. And I gave 604 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 1: up forty to Kobe. You gave up just eighteen. Hey, 605 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 1: great to talk to us always, Jayal, and thanks for 606 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,839 Speaker 1: sharing and good luck with the all access with the Celtics.

Every 640 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 1: has gone out for a break in a little bit 641 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:19,919 Speaker 1: of fresh air. Well, I was in New York last week. Yeah, 642 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 1: and that is the smell of New York. Used to 643 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:28,840 Speaker 1: be urine. Now it's a lot more preferable. Yeah, because 644 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 1: I said to my wife, would you what would you 645 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 1: rather smell?

The 655 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: Cincinnati quarterback shows a little promise there, m Marcus Mariota. 656 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,080 Speaker 1: All right, Uh, let me get a couple of phone 657 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: calls in here. Fad in Cincinnati joins us. Great, great, 658 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 1: what's on your mind. Hey, So, first thing that came 659 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 1: to mind was the stample for the George Clinton song 660 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 1: that Marv had on this morning. I believe one of 661 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 1: the suits might have been in stync the Space Cowboys single. 662 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:43,640 Speaker 1: I remember I watched it on the theater tape. It 663 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: was bow wow, wow, your cio, your va, if you 664 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:50,319 Speaker 1: want a ride. It was all on those lines. So 665 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: I think that might have been the one you got 666 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 1: in fact checking on that one, all right. Second thing 667 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 1: is the Brinton newsletters that you just gave too. I 668 00:39:58,040 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 1: think that that's the Jedi mind trick here. So Derek 669 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 1: Cars getting looked at by most of those AFC South teams, 670 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 1: Panthers and Saints apl freeing up space for Lamar wink 671 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 1: wink hmm. I don't know. I don't think anybody knows 672 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 1: what's happening with Lamar Jackson. It just feels like they're 673 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 1: going to franchise him. And then you got conflicting reports 674 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:25,439 Speaker 1: that hey, he's not asking for Deshaun Watson deal. Well, hey, 675 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 1: I don't believe that, because if I'm Lamar Jackson, that's 676 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 1: where I start. My demand is DeShawn Watson's deal. Like, 677 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 1: what's Deshaun Watson done. Look at what I've done. Deshaun 678 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 1: doesn't have an MVP but guaranteed money, and Lamar doesn't 679 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 1: have anywhere near the baggage. Deshaun Watson, you know, you're 680 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,880 Speaker 1: you have to look at it from Lamar's perspective, like, okay, 681 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: next guy up. Okay, well, now we compare next guy 682 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:58,440 Speaker 1: up to DeShawn Watson, not Mahomes. Deshaun Watson, you want guaranteed. 683 00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 1: I mean Kyler Murray got paid, granted, the Cardinals you know, 684 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,800 Speaker 1: caved in. But and it just feels odd with Baltimore, 685 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,920 Speaker 1: and I'd said that for now two years. Just feels on. 686 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: Let's see Patrick in California, Hi, Patrick, A good morning, 687 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 1: down five eight, one sixty eight. All right, So I 688 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: coached basketball here in southern California for some time in 689 00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:31,160 Speaker 1: Orange County. And first off, as you know, it's a 690 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: hot bit of talent. There's a lot of good public 691 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: and private school players. But when you look at the 692 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 1: local press, LA Times, Orange County Register, even the you 693 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:43,320 Speaker 1: know out on Riverside, Brownie's not getting the headlines. Actually, 694 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: one of his teammates that did by the last name 695 00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: that Bailey is getting more of the hype. So I've 696 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 1: had friends that are even referees that have gone to 697 00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 1: those games and rept those games, and fans are there 698 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 1: to see Lebron and not Brownie, which I think is 699 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:01,439 Speaker 1: unfair to him. You guys, sit it on the nail 700 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,400 Speaker 1: of it. If he goes and please see at a 701 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 1: d one for a year or two and really learned 702 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 1: to play against men, then that transition, maybe the NBA 703 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: will be better. And in watching the Mello brothers or 704 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:17,319 Speaker 1: the Ball brothers, they were heading shoulders above talent wise 705 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: than Braughty is right now. Yeah, I mean I thought 706 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: Lamello was even as a freshman, I could see the 707 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: potential there. You know, he was undisciplined. They took wild 708 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:31,280 Speaker 1: shots and it was a strange style that they had. 709 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: But you know, evenl Angelo was a really good shooter. 710 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,360 Speaker 1: Haven't heard from the dad in a while. It's probably 711 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 1: a good thing. Let's get him on. No, no, no, okay, sorry, 712 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 1: we never actually said yes to the request. We never 713 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 1: had him on. Dave Roberts, the Dodgers manager, he's going 714 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 1: to join us next. He got a prediction for this 715 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 1: year
