32
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 2: in this NBA Finals that is gonna be like what

33
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,360
Speaker 2: five days from now? Like maybe maybe maybe, I don't know,

34
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: maybe we could adjust the schedule a.

35
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: Little bit longer than five days.

36
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 3: Today's Saturday Finals isn't until Thursday, right, so.

37
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 2: I think it's June sixth, right, it's June first. I mean,

38
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 2: maybe just maybe we could have this on a little

39
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 2: bit of a variable schedule, or you know, why don't

40
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 2: we just kind of have one of these conference finals

41
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 2: go past five. Neither one of those happened, But we

42
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 2: do have the Boston Celtics and the Dallas Mavericks. Dallas

43
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 2: the five seed in the West, Boston the one seed

44
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 2: in the East. Pretty much the entire freaking time that

45
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 2: they were playing basketball in the East. And I mean

46
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 2: there's a ton of there's so many different angles to

47
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 2: go through with this, so many different places to go through.

48
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: But first, Vida, let's go ahead and get it on, Wax.

49
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 2: Who do you have winning the NBA Finals into how

50
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: many games?

51
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 4: Ah?

52
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 2: Man?

53
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 3: This was hard for me because Boston is a good team.

54
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 3: But as you guys know, all our lovely listeners out

55
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 3: there in Fox Sports Radio listening to Land that listens

56
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 3: to us every Saturday and every day that they listen

57
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 3: to this network were filling on different shows. I've been

58
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 3: banging on Boston for the last that's two two three seasons.

59
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 3: They're a team that has to win it for me

60
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 3: to believe they can win it, because they've been really

61
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 3: good the last three years. They were just in the

62
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: NBA Finals two years ago and was up to one

63
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 3: in that series. So they're not a team that's kind

64
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 3: of come out of nowhere. Dallas has been to now

65
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 3: three conference final, two conference finals. Luke and them did

66
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 3: it two years ago, got to the conference finals and

67
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 3: lost to the Warriors who won the championship, lost in five.

68
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 3: So when you put all this together, man, and you

69
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 3: think about the X factors Boston's mental and physical toughness,

70
00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 3: which I questioned the X factors with the Bigs in

71
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 3: uh in my man gas in d L two for Dallas,

72
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,920
Speaker 3: and then of course DL two baby, and then of course.

73
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: No, he's Derek DL two. But uh, it's just so.

74
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,519
Speaker 3: Much to break down, and I got notes for days,

75
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 3: but just to throw it out there, and I'm sure

76
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 3: we'll go through and break it down. Give me the

77
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 3: MAVs in six. I think they split one and two

78
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,519
Speaker 3: in Boston. I think they then split one and two

79
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 3: and uh in Dallas, and then I think Dallas wins

80
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 3: back to back games. They go still game five at

81
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 3: Boston Garden, and then they come home and they close

82
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 3: it out in front of the home fans, which they

83
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 3: didn't get a chance to do before when they won

84
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 3: the championship against the Heat, they closed the Heat out

85
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 3: in Miami.

86
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 2: And I think now.

87
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 3: Will be a poetic justice that it comes full circle

88
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 3: and that they close it out in Dallas.

89
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: Give me Dallas in six.

90
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 3: I think seven's too easy, Mark, and I see a

91
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 3: lot of people calling seven that's such a cop out

92
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 3: route to go five or six.

93
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 1: If you think it's gonna go seven games, it's gonna

94
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: get game.

95
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's still a safe route to take though,

96
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 3: whether you think that or not, it's still Oh it's

97
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,200
Speaker 3: going seven Okay, cool like you No, but I wanna

98
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: I want to go ahead get I want to hang

99
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 3: out on the limb man. I think Dallas, I think Lucas.

100
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 3: If Luca's a problem man, he really is with all

101
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 3: the injuries. And then, like I said, the muss Haves,

102
00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 3: the Muss halves are gonna be huge in this series.

103
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 3: We already know about the Batman and Robbers. Who's gonna

104
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 3: be Aquaman, Who's gonna be Flash, Who's gonna be wonder Woman?

105
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

106
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 3: Who's gonna be Who's gonna be Black Adam? That's what

107
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 3: I need to know, bro, Like real talk. We already

108
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 3: know what Batman and Superman do. We know what they do.

109
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 3: But the Flash movie was really good. You didn't expect that, right,

110
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 3: The Aquaman movies were, they were pretty cool. You didn't

111
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 3: expect Black Adam. The Rock did a great job, Douge.

112
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 3: It was a good movie, but you know it can't

113
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 3: carry for thirty years the way Batman and Superman could

114
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 3: carry thirty forty fifty years of movie.

115
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 1: So give me the MAVs.

116
00:04:56,200 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 3: In six, Kyrie Luca, Jason Kidd becomes a coach that

117
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 3: now won a player in championship as a player and

118
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 3: then won a championship as a head coach.

119
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 1: Also to pretty cool.

120
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 3: Also to first matchup, if I'm not mistaken, two black

121
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 3: African American head coaches head to head in the finals,

122
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 3: if I'm not mistaken, or at least the second or

123
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 3: third time. But it doesn't happen often. And I've been

124
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 3: a Jason Kidd guy since cal Man. He made me

125
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 3: cut off. I know it was before your time. He

126
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 3: made me cut off one sleeve of my T shirt

127
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 3: when I went to go ball. He started that trend

128
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 3: when he was at cal back in the early nineties.

129
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 3: So give me the MAVs. I'll take the Mads and six.

130
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:34,919
Speaker 2: I do believe it is the first time we've had

131
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 2: two African American head coaches coaching in the finals against

132
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 2: one another. And oh, I saw that stack coming down

133
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 2: the line. But now that I'm sitting here trying to

134
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 2: like fact checking in my brain, I can't see two others.

135
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: No, That's why I was thinking on my head off.

136
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:49,840
Speaker 3: That's why I went really fast in my head him

137
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 3: think of going down the list, I thought it was

138
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 3: either the first time or the second or something like that.

139
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 3: But even at itself, Man, Mary, I'll tell you this,

140
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 3: I think this is going to be an outstanding finals.

141
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,039
Speaker 3: You got stars, man, You talk about stars, Mari, you

142
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 3: got stars. You talk about storylines, You got storylines, and

143
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,760
Speaker 3: we still don't know what's so with porks Is.

144
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 1: Zingi's gonna play like what's going on there?

145
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 2: So because the reports where he was supposed to be

146
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,239
Speaker 2: able to come back for Game four of the Eastern

147
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 2: Conference Finals didn't end up doing it. Now they have

148
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 2: what ten days between their last game and their first

149
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 2: game in the finals, so you would like to think so.

150
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 2: But also it's that spraying. It's that that solus, that

151
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 2: solius muscle, that same thing that had Giannis outen. I

152
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 2: mean the calvestruck calves this year in the NBA are

153
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 2: not having a good stretch. Ye that put it.

154
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: That's what they need to do. Stretch, you know me

155
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 1: water and stretching.

156
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 2: Baby.

157
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:41,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, So we'll see.

158
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 2: I think Chris Apsworzingis eventually will come back, but he's

159
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 2: part of the reason why I am picking Dallas in seven.

160
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,480
Speaker 2: And I'll just real quick to your thing about picking

161
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 2: in six going on the limbit.

162
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to get into an.

163
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 2: Argument about it, but to me, if you're picking in six,

164
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 2: if it goes five, you could be like, well, I

165
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 2: thought one team was gonna get another one, And if

166
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 2: it goes seven, you can always point back to like

167
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 2: that one play and that one game that made it

168
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,600
Speaker 2: that that you know that that ended up being the

169
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,279
Speaker 2: bell weather for a team that to extend the series

170
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 2: in a way that it wasn't supposed to, right, Like,

171
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 2: you can go back to that, you know that if

172
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 2: Aaron Neismith had made that three pointer and game was

173
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,559
Speaker 2: that Game three where they ran four verts? Basically yeah,

174
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 2: uh at the in Game three he makes that three pointer.

175
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 2: It's a game Indiana was supposed to lose, probably anyway,

176
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 2: but end a Minnie either way here nor there. I'm

177
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 2: gonna take Dallas and seven. And it simply goes to

178
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,679
Speaker 2: what I believe playoff basketball is all about. Playoff basketball

179
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 2: is about but guys can go get buckets, right you

180
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 2: got and you got two of the best bucket geters

181
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 2: that have ever existed in Luca Dodgers and Kyrie Irving

182
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: on on the Dallas side of things, and I don't

183
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 2: know who's supposed to like, you know, my I picked

184
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 2: the Timberwolves until come out of the Western Conference, right,

185
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 2: and my thought process while doing that was, well, the

186
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 2: Timberwolves have all these you know, plus plus defenders. You know,

187
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 2: they got Jaj McDaniels, they got Alexander Walker, Anthony Ellwards

188
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 2: is a good defender. You know, we had just came

189
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 2: off a watch like Karl Anthony Towns played pretty good

190
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 2: defense as well against in that Denver series. I'm thinking

191
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 2: Dallas isn't gonna have enough offensively to get past this

192
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 2: vaunted Minnesota defense.

193
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: It was the best defense in the league, damn.

194
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 2: Near the whole year, number one. And you know what happened,

195
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 2: Luca took that number one and put it somewhere else. Yeah.

196
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 2: I don't give a good goddamn once you guys got

197
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 2: going on over their number one defense.

198
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 1: How about this? Would you like this?

199
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 2: Three?

200
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 1: Would you like this? Three?

201
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 2: How about that? I'm a step back to the side

202
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 2: and give you another one boom And before you know it,

203
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 2: it's like the beginning of the movie.

204
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 1: And all the main characters are dead.

205
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 2: It's like there's only one guy left, and it was

206
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 2: the one guy was Luka Doncics. So I think that Dallas.

207
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,680
Speaker 2: I mean, on the Boston side of things, they told

208
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 2: us already that they were not a championship team with

209
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 2: their current construction. That's why they made the trades to

210
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 2: get Drew Holliday, who we saw come up big time.

211
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 2: Even though the Eastern Conference Finals in terms of games

212
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,199
Speaker 2: won and lost wasn't necessarily close, you know what I mean,

213
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 2: it was a sweep, right, but in individual moments you

214
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 2: saw Drew Holliday's impact, especially in that Game one, then

215
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 2: that Game four Steel. So you got that Drew Holliday. Think,

216
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 2: but you kind of already have Marcus Smart, right, but

217
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 2: now Drew Holiday is an upgrade. But it's like, you know,

218
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 2: it's not necessarily the Phantom to the Karsil three hundred, Right,

219
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 2: it's still an upgrade, but it's like the sport model

220
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 2: as opposed to this the eco model. Right.

221
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're somebody putting the Bentley grill on the

222
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,959
Speaker 3: Christy three hundred and thinking they're driving around in a Bentley.

223
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 2: Right, So you got Drew Holliday there, who's again a

224
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 2: championship proven player, and then Kristaps Worzingis who the big question.

225
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:35,959
Speaker 1: The big question was.

226
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,439
Speaker 2: Can he stay healthy through the sixteen games that they

227
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 2: need to win.

228
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: That's already been answered the answer was no.

229
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: But can he stay healthy for the four more games

230
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 2: that they need to win is going to be what

231
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 2: the key is. I just think it's a big ask

232
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: to have a guy who hasn't played basketball. Think about

233
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,640
Speaker 2: who was playing basketball last time Christaps Worzingis was. Donovan

234
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 2: Mitchell was still playing, Franz Wagner was still playing, Paolo

235
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 2: ben Caro was still playing. But at the time when

236
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 2: Christaps Porzingis got hurt, those guys have now gone on

237
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 2: three separate vacations.

238
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: Right, They went to the south to.

239
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 2: France and can't coon, and they went over.

240
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:09,560
Speaker 1: To Switzerland just to see them.

241
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 2: Snow, you know, I'm just making stuff up, But you know,

242
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 2: do you get the point that I'm trying to make,

243
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 2: Like at this point in time, like they have not

244
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 2: played the Sacramento Kings, damn near, we're playing basketball at

245
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,440
Speaker 2: the same time Christaps Porzingis was last Right, those guys

246
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: are in completely different arenas now because they're on vacation now, right,

247
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: and shout out to Mike Brown getting that the three year,

248
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 2: thirty million dollar extension. And it just goes to show you,

249
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 2: man coaches ten million dollars a year and sign me up.

250
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 2: But anyway, I think that if Kristas Porzingis can't come

251
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 2: and not only play, but play like thirty to thirty

252
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 2: five minutes a game, I'm worried about Boston's ability to

253
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 2: guard on the perimeter because what we saw from Al

254
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 2: Horford this postseason, well he had that one game where

255
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 2: he made a bunch of threes. But when they run

256
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 2: screen and roll, which guess what, that's what everybody is

257
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 2: going to run in this Year's gonna be a whole

258
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 2: lot of people, well Dallas sided especially, but it's gonna

259
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,680
Speaker 2: be this guy screens for Luca. This guy screens for Luca,

260
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 2: this guy screens for Kyrie. Whether it's Lively, Gafford, Derek Jones, Junior, PJ. Washington,

261
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 2: whatever the matchup is, they're gonna hunt Al Horford if

262
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 2: Christ's Porzingis can't play. And I tell you what it's

263
00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 2: they say, barbecue chicken, go ahead. Yeah, it's gonna be

264
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 2: like the deli counter at the grocery store, all the

265
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,079
Speaker 2: all the barbecue chicken.

266
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: That you want.

267
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I'm from the d D n V. I

268
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,439
Speaker 3: call that mambo sauce on wings right there, babies, and

269
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,120
Speaker 3: sign me up. Give me that mambo sauce. That's mambo sauce,

270
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 3: finger licking good lombo sauce.

271
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 2: Very underrated sauce in my for my money, it is

272
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 2: a top three regional sauce sauce of all time. Like

273
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 2: especially you know what I'm saying. You have a like

274
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 2: different like Philly has a sauce, like Chicago has mild sauce,

275
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 2: DC has mambo sauce. Give me mambo sauce in a

276
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,240
Speaker 2: top two all there with I will put it up

277
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 2: there with just about any regional sauce that you got

278
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 2: to offer.

279
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: Hell yeah, some X factors also too.

280
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 3: I just I can't let go of the Boston factor

281
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 3: of their mental and their physical toughness. It has not

282
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 3: been questioned yet, and Lucas showed in that close out

283
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 3: game a Boston fans here public announcement.

284
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: Just go to the game, get your.

285
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 3: Basket of chicken fingers, get your taco, get your popcorn,

286
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,839
Speaker 3: concaate whatever. Leave that man alone. I'm telling you don't

287
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 3: start talking to him courtside people who be Vince Walfolk,

288
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick, Yeah, yeah, yeah, big Poppy, that's my guy though,

289
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 3: Donny Walburgs, Yeah, I was gonna say, the Wallbirds and

290
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 3: all listen, leave that man alone. He wants that. And

291
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 3: I think what Luca's going to do. And I've seen

292
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 3: this through the playoffs. Luca likes a little contact. He

293
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 3: might turn and look to the revs a little bit

294
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,800
Speaker 3: and stuff. That's just Luca, but he doesn't shy away

295
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 3: from it. And I'm waiting for someone to pretty much

296
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 3: get in Boston's face and shovel like put like a

297
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 3: for how fight starts.

298
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: Let me get in your face, you know what I saying.

299
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: Fight starts. Want you your hands on, sorry.

300
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 2: Let me push you. Let me see what you're gonna do.

301
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,959
Speaker 3: We haven't seen that from Boston, and I thought they

302
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 3: lost the two guys that would step up and fight

303
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 3: for them, which would be Smart and Williams. They don't

304
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 3: have the Tatum's not a tough guy. Brown's not a

305
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 3: tough guy. I'm not saying they some suckers, they some punks,

306
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 3: I'm not, but just on the court. They're not known

307
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 3: for being just that physical. I'll get in your face,

308
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 3: I'll talk some trash type of guys. I'm interesting to

309
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 3: see when Dallas starts to chirp a little bit. Jason

310
00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 3: Kidd was a chirper and a tough guy too as

311
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 3: a coach. How do they respond? I think the series

312
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 3: markin a large portion of this series is going to

313
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,439
Speaker 3: hinge on how they respond mentally to mental toughness.

314
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, and we'll get to some other path to the

315
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,079
Speaker 2: finals and just a Roman because I do think I

316
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 2: pushed back a little bit because there they did play

317
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 2: some tight games along the way. It just wasn't very

318
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 2: tight series in terms of the wins and the losses.

319
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 2: You know, especially you know when you go up to

320
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 2: to you know two oh three, oh four, Oho, you know.

321
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 1: That matters though, that matters, absolutely does.

322
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, Indiana took them to the brink a

323
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 2: couple of times. And that's also part of the reason

324
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 2: why I am concerned about the Boston Celtics coming up.

325
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 2: Although if you pay attention to the betting markets, which

326
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 2: I know that you do, Yes, Boston has been the

327
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 2: prohibitive favorite to win this thing for.

328
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 1: The longest time.

329
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 2: Yea, they have been, I mean, and now they're stalled

330
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 2: like minus two twenty favorites, which is pretty hefty. But

331
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 2: they've been minus favorites for Damnar since the All Star Break.

332
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, well they're six and a half favorites to win

333
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 3: Game one, so they I mean, the Vegas doesn't think that.

334
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 2: I mean, listen, a seven.

335
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 3: Point win in Game one of the finals, in my opinion,

336
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 3: that's a that's a lofty that's a lofty victory. You

337
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 3: win by seven points, that means, you know, down the stretch,

338
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 3: there's some free throws.

339
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 2: You know, they have no shot.

340
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 3: There's no seven point play, there's no five point play,

341
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 3: there's no six point playing basketball.

342
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 2: Vegas thinks the energy, the time.

343
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 3: Off, the time off. That's another The need to mark

344
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 3: long break for Boston reminds me of when the Lakers

345
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 3: walk through the playoffs against the Sixers. Remember the Lakers

346
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,280
Speaker 3: swept through the East, the Western Conference, and and the

347
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 3: Sixers went to six and then went to seven, and

348
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 3: then Alan Iverson came out here in the stables and

349
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 3: dropped forty eight on their head and just kind of

350
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 3: shocked the Wakers. You know, recovered, But that long break

351
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 3: for teams man that's picked to win it. Just another

352
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 3: bullet point there. Watch that it was a.

353
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 2: Long break for Boston, it would be a short break

354
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 2: for us. Coming up, we'll dive into some of that

355
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 2: Boston playoff pathway and how it looked coming out of

356
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,240

389
00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 2: Anthony Edwards skipping the game or postgame interview with Inside

390
00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:03,920

Speaker 5: Come?

392
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:04,679

00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,520

396
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 3: Radio that you know of?

397
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 2: Not that I know? Okay, okay, I said I told

398
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:18,679
Speaker 2: you at the time. I was like just trade him

399
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 2: after he puns Jordan pull. We got into it. We

400
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 2: got into it on air about that.

401
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 3: I'm But lately though, I have been just backing off

402
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 3: because when new information is shown, I'm allowed to change

403
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 3: my mind. This guy is really starting to irk me

404
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 3: because you're a player still, so there has to be

405
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 3: some type of decorm and some type of loyalty still

406
00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 3: to the player side.

407
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,719
Speaker 2: Of you, even though you get a chance to go

408
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 2: sit on T and T and talk.

409
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 3: But the way he's ripping guys and how he's doing it,

410
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 3: it just comes off so much as like Debate Show

411
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 3: us type stuff, like the stuff that's been flooding TV

412
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 3: airways for the last fifteen seventeen years. And that's why

413
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 3: the players are like, oh no, no, no, b We get

414
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 3: you got some bread, We get you got some some

415
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,360
Speaker 3: you know, some some leadway with your show and and

416
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 3: and who you and who you're under and all that.

417
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 1: Stuff with your podcast.

418
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 2: But aren't you still a current player?

419
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 3: And I just think that there needs to be some

420
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 3: type of loyalty and decorm there. Uh And and it's

421
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 3: like Mike Breen, right, Mike Breen won't really trash refs

422
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 3: why he used to be one. You know what I'm saying,

423
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 3: Like he used to be an official, so he's not

424
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 3: gonna go there day years old.

425
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:29,200
Speaker 2: When I found that out, I had no idea Mike

426
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 2: Breen used to be in an NBA official.

427
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 3: Absolutely, That's why he won't go in on the officials

428
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,120
Speaker 3: the way like a Van Gundy or Mark Jackson will.

429
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 3: He'll just kind of let them have their say and

430
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,840
Speaker 3: he'll just go on calling the game like a professional.

431
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,400
Speaker 3: Dust I think Draymond needs the kind of back off.

432
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 3: It's like, oh, let me say this to look cool

433
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 3: and be popular and for clickbait. So no, I totally

434
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 3: agree with what Minnesota did. Absolutely.

435
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,399
Speaker 1: I the one thing I would have liked to have seen.

436
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 2: I would have liked them to do it and then

437
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,160
Speaker 2: call him out like I would have liked for Anthony

438
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 2: Evers to do the post game and then then sit

439
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,879
Speaker 2: there in Draymond's face, because I mean, think about what

440
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,800
Speaker 2: inside the NBA has been over the last you know,

441
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 2: ten or so years, whatever this iteration of it.

442
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 3: He wasn't there for the close out game because I

443
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 3: watched the post game. He wasn't there for the closet. No,

444
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,600
Speaker 3: he wasn't there the close out game, so it had

445
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 3: been hard. I agree with you. I like that, yes,

446
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 3: sit in his face. I was going in after game

447
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 3: four and.

448
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 2: Been like, did you see how Rudy Gobert and did

449
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 2: see Karnsley Towns ball out in the last fourth in

450
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 2: this fourth quarter is why we won the game?

451
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,919
Speaker 1: Now what you know or you know something.

452
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: Along those lines.

453
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: But that's neither here nor there.

454
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 2: Did you see We'll get to the Draymond comments about

455
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 2: the Celtics in just a minute, But did you see

456
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:44,720
Speaker 2: this guy on the podcast with Shack say that the

457
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 2: NBA is not set up for him to be wealthy? After?

458
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 2: Of course I did, Bro, of course I did. But

459
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,120
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, do you want to talk about

460
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 2: out of touch? You want to talk about just you

461
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 2: know what? What are you talking about? So he said,

462
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 2: I'm trying to pull up the culture right now. So

463
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,679
Speaker 2: he goes, yeah, okay, here we go. He goes, the

464
00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 2: job is not set up the way we're taxed, the

465
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 2: way we're fined. You know, we hear about all these programs,

466
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,199
Speaker 2: this program that that's to cover everybody else. The program

467
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 2: has to teach this guy this. But if I do

468
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 2: something wrong, I lose one hundred thousand dollars. It took

469
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 2: my mom four years when I was growing up to

470
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 2: make one hundred thousand dollars. I lose that in the

471
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:22,600
Speaker 2: night because of what Because the referee got mad at

472
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 2: me and didn't like what.

473
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: I said to him. And then look, so here's the thing.

474
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,480
Speaker 2: This is one of those things that has a good

475
00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 2: message coming from the wrong messenger because athletes do get

476
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 2: taxed kind of unfairly. When you consider the jock tax,

477
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 2: which basically you have to pay each state that you

478
00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 2: play road games in. You have to pay taxes to

479
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,400
Speaker 2: that state, right, which is kind of crazy. Like I'm

480
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,399
Speaker 2: working in Michigan right now, I'm not going to be

481
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 2: paying income tax in Michigan because you know, I'm not

482
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 2: going to lucky you, right.

483
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: So, but his point was, he.

484
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 2: Goes, the fines don't make sense when you work as

485
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 2: hard is we go to accumulate wealth coming from situations

486
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 2: that most people don't make it out of. Then you

487
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 2: can find the way we're fined. It's actually not set

488
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 2: up for us to be wealthy after we're done playing.

489
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: And I knew Draymond Green in high school, Like we

490
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 2: played against each other in high school, right, in this

491
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,920
Speaker 2: very state. Mind mind you it doesn't maybe four years

492
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 2: to make one hundred thousand dollars as a stretch, but

493
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 2: the idea like, yeah, no one in Saginaw. Are a

494
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 2: few people in sagon are coming out like with you know,

495
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 2: crazy Bray like to a crazy money just money on

496
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 2: money on money, right, otherwise you probably don't live in

497
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:29,880
Speaker 2: that area.

498
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: Just all due respect, no, just real talk.

499
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 2: But Draymond, the fines you have been fined without knowing.

500
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 2: I would bet that seventy six percent or more of

501
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 2: NBA players have never been fined ever. Think about it.

502
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:47,960
Speaker 2: Think about what you have to do to try to

503
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:49,920
Speaker 2: get fined, Like so are some of the fines pity

504
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 2: pat sure, but think about what you really get, Like

505
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 2: like you think Mike Conley's ever been fined and his

506
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,120
Speaker 2: Chauncey Billups has ever been fine?

507
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 1: Like this is not happening.

508
00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,959
Speaker 2: It's sad like out of touch man, just completely out

509
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 2: of touch.

510
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:05,919
Speaker 1: No he is.

511
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 3: But and this is the and this is the bigger

512
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 3: problem that I have with it when you try to say, well,

513
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,080
Speaker 3: what your what it took our parents? I'm not even

514
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 3: gonna talk about the man's mom, what it took our

515
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 3: parents to make. Yeah, but our parents didn't dribble a

516
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:22,680
Speaker 3: basketball for a living. Our parents didn't sign a two

517
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty one to seventy five two hundred

518
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 3: million dollar contracts. Yes, the taxes are high because you

519
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 3: make so much more money than the average per you think,

520
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,399
Speaker 3: I like the taxes that I see come out of

521
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 3: my check and I don't make nearly what Draymond Green makes,

522
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 3: but also defines to Draymond, you bring a lot of

523
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,480
Speaker 3: this on yourself, bro, you bring a lot of this

524
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,879
Speaker 3: on yourself, the whole because the ref got mad as something.

525
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 3: I said, Yeah, because it's like the third it's like

526
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 3: the thirteenth thing you've set to it in tonight. It's

527
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 3: not the first or second thing you've set to it.

528
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 3: And guess what. He refs your game three nights ago,

529
00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,800
Speaker 3: and then he repped the game two weeks ago.

530
00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:01,760
Speaker 2: Get he reughed the game for you last month.

531
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 3: You've been running your mouth at this guy and he's

532
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 3: a human being, and at some point there is rules

533
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,200
Speaker 3: what you can and can't say, Martin, And he goes

534
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 3: over the line all the spin punch, the kicking guys

535
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 3: and punching guys and to go now you can't. That's

536
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 3: guy code to me. Bro, that's fighting right there. You

537
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:23,720

545
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 2: in the last fifteen years. Draymond Green, Like, you're clearly

546
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 2: doing something wrong now, but let's kick it over to

547
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,720

Speaker 7: Mike Brown did coach a finals game for Golden State

553
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,399

554
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,919
Speaker 7: full time coach, he had to step in a lit.

555
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 3: He was the guy that came in my mind. I

556
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 3: kept thinking, Mike Brown, Mike.

557
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 7: Final years ago, you'd have trow back. But yet, also,

618
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,480

622
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,120
Speaker 2: been battle tested and all of that. Whether they get

623
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 2: to these finals and win or lose will not be

624
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: because they haven't been battle tested. You don't get to

625
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 2: the NBA Finals at some point throughout the year, haven't

626
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 2: been battle tested. It doesn't happen, won't happen. It ain't

627
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 2: happening this time. This is the problem. Though they won

628
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 2: the East by fifteen freaking games. Yeah, okay, then you

629
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 2: go through the first round. Jimmy Butler is missing, right.

630
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 2: A team that they have had to exercise their demons

631
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 2: are about the Miami The Miami Heat, who you know what,

632
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 2: took them to three to zero, then ended up being

633
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 2: forcing forcing in Game seven, and then ended up losing

634
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 2: eventually last year in the Eastern Conference finals. So a

635
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 2: team that they had to you know, really had should

636
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,679
Speaker 2: have had to go through, right, That's kind of how

637
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 2: the playoffs work, you know. Actually, Benny Goodwill from whose

638
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 2: Sports asked Anthony Edwards and Carl Anthony Towns about this.

639
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 2: They kind of laughed it off, but they were like,

640
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:28,920
Speaker 2: how many games were we supposed to lose? It's like

641
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 2: you're supposed to bump your head in the playoffs and

642
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,399
Speaker 2: then overcome it. Right, Well, Boston didn't have to overcome

643
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 2: Miami this time because Jimmy Butler was out by the

644
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,680
Speaker 2: end of it, Hoimy Howkins was out and all they

645
00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 2: were doing were Hotels dot Com commercials. Then you go

646
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 2: and you see it's the other on the other side

647
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 2: of the bracket is the Pacers and the Knicks. By

648
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 2: the end of the series, Tyres Halliburton is dressed like

649
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 2: Hyry Potter on the sidelines, so he's not he's not playing,

650
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 2: And then.

651
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 8: Not to mention that if the Knicks had been healthy,

652
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 8: I think the Knicks would have gave him a better

653
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 8: series in the first place. With oj Nanobi hadn't gotten hurt,

654
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 8: and if Jalen Brun didn't get hurt by the end

655
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:02,479
Speaker 8: of that series, I think the Knicks would have gave

656
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 8: him a tougher series in Indiana would have it in

657
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 8: the first place.

658
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 1: It's okay that this.

659
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 2: Team has not been quote unquote battle tested this year,

660
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 2: because I.

661
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: Don't think they have been.

662
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,520
Speaker 3: No, I agree with you, but let's let's just if

663
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 3: you look at the regular season, pulled the regular seasons

664
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 3: in findhed the final standings. Okay, so, like you said,

665
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 3: fourteen games over the second place New York nic Obaca's

666
00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 3: all right, But if you look at the Bucks, they

667
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 3: finished third. The Bucks missed a bunch of games this

668
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 3: year with Giannis out and with and with Middleton ou

669
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 3: all right.

670
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 2: Then you go down to Cleveland, including the playoffs.

671
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 3: Joanna's didn't come Johanna's never came back is the reason

672
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,880
Speaker 3: why they lost to it to sixth seed Indianni Pacers.

673
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 3: Then you go to the Cleveland Cavaliers. They might have

674
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 3: had a better season, but Mitchell missed twenty something games.

675
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 3: Then you go to Orlando Magic. They came out of nowhere.

676
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 3: They had a great year forty seven and thirty five

677
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:46,880
Speaker 3: for that team.

678
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 1: But they're young. They don't have a mega superstar.

679
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 3: They have maybe a young buddy winning Ban Carroll guy,

680
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 3: I'm I'm a fan of I look forward to what

681
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 3: his career is gonna be. He got the pacer sitting

682
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 3: at six Embiid goes out, Bed goes out, the Sixers

683
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 3: fall from two to seven, and then, like you said,

684
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 3: the Miami Heat, they had so many injuries this year

685
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 3: they finished at eight. And then if you look at

686
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 3: teams like the Hawks, who were supposed to be so

687
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 3: much better this year, and then even the Bulls, who

688
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 3: people had more high.

689
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: Hopes for because they were supposed to be healthier this year.

690
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 3: If you just look at the way the East broke

691
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 3: out all year long, Boston didn't have any major injuries.

692
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 3: Boston didn't have any major concerns. And listen, that's not

693
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,080
Speaker 3: to knock them, but the facts are the facts. The

694
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 3: facts are that your competition just wasn't all at their best.

695
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 3: When you face this, I say this the same thing

696
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 3: I say about the Milwaukee Bucks championship year. It's really

697
00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 3: starting to look now we're three years removed, now, it's

698
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 3: starting to really look like Kyrie got hurt.

699
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 2: Some of the times.

700
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, somebody else got hurt.

701
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,280
Speaker 3: And that because they ended up playing the Hawks in

702
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 3: the Eastern Conference finals because of Ben Simmons didn't send

703
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 3: the day You go, yeah, yeah, Ben Simmons didn't want

704
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 3: to shoot, but the non shot.

705
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,480
Speaker 2: Heard across the country right there. Yeah, Ben Simmons not

706
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 2: duncking that ball.

707
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 3: But if you go back, Martin and you look at

708
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 3: even that playoff run, it's starting to kind of look like, yeah, man,

709
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 3: that kind of laid out for you guys. The ball

710
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 3: kind of bounced the right way. It's the same for Boston.

711
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 3: My thing is, it's not a knock when it's the truth.

712
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 3: If the facts are the truth, then you can't be

713
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 3: a hater or you can't be trying to knock them.

714
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,200
Speaker 3: The facts are the East was beating up. It was

715
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 3: the West last year. The West was beating up so

716
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 3: bad last year. That's why you saw a team like

717
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 3: Sacramento finished third. How Sacramento do this year with the

718
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 3: same team, with the same squad, with a year of experience,

719
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 3: and even going up against taking the Warriors to seven games?

720
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: Where did they finish this year? The ninth seed? They'll

721
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 1: play it? Why?

722
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,640
Speaker 3: Because everybody was healthy. Luke and Kyrie had a whole

723
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 3: season together. The Nuggets weren't that beat up. Minnesota was healthy.

724
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 3: Like it changes from year to year, This is just

725
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 3: the year Martin at Boston. Hey, it's okay, guys, you're

726
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:00,320
Speaker 3: in the finals.

727
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:00,920
Speaker 1: Why do you care?

728
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 3: But the fact is your competition all year long was

729
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 3: beat up and things were going on.

730
00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 2: But to the point that you just made Boston, you're

731
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:09,920
Speaker 2: in the finals, nobody should care.

732
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: You could bring up that that Milwaukee run all you want,

733
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,080
Speaker 1: but you know what happened.

734
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 2: In the finals. Joanna's blocked DeAndre Ayton shot. We haven't

735
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 2: heard from Deondre eighton since. Poor god.

736
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 1: I mean, but you know what I mean. Johannis went and.

737
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 2: Had a fifty burger in the closeout game, to the

738
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 2: point where we're seeing him pull up the Chick fil

739
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 2: as I won fifty fifteen.

740
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: That ring, that ring that they got, that thing shines

741
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 1: the same way.

742
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 2: It shines just as bright when you set the lights

743
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 2: on it, so like you can never take that away.

744
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: So Boston, that would be my advice. Go ahead and dominate.

745
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: If the path hasn't.

746
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,479
Speaker 2: Been easy, right, if you're telling me this has been

747
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 2: an arge long, arduous path to the NBA Finals, then

748
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 2: you should have no problem walking into a Mavericks team

749
00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 2: that finished on fifth or sixth in the conference, fifth

750
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 2: in the conference on the west side, right, and again,

751
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:04,959
Speaker 2: Boston won the Eastern Conference by more. I'm sure Boston

752
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 2: had a higher lead in the Eastern Conference over the

753
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 2: two seed. That was the entire margin from the ten

754
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 2: seed to the one seed in the West. Yeah, right,

755
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:16,960
Speaker 2: there was the fourteen games. Was like Dallas was not no.

756
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 2: Fourteen games behind anybody. Where New York was fourteen games

757
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 2: behind Boston, they would have had to just stop playing

758
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 2: for two weeks to try to even get close to

759
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 2: the one seed in the East. If that's the case

760
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,959
Speaker 2: and you just got this team of world beaters, wouldn't

761
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 2: go ahead beat the world. You have the perfect opportunity

762
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 2: right in front of you in the NBA Finals. And again,

763
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 2: what six of the last eight Eastern Conference finals, two

764
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:38,719
Speaker 2: of the last three NBA finals.

765
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: You're the battle tested team year year in, year round.

766
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 2: You're the team that has bumped their head a few

767
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 2: different times here, and it's the opportunity to go ahead

768
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,080
Speaker 2: and exercise all of those demons. Because if Jason Tatum

769
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 2: coming and Jalen Brown come out and average thirty a

770
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 2: piece for each game in this syeraries and they win

771
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,040
Speaker 2: this thing in five, six or seven, it won't matter.

772
00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 1: No one will care about this easy path.

773
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I tell you this, man, Boston's got to win it.

774
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 3: They don't have a choice. Boston's got to win this.

775
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 3: The MAVs don't have to win I know they want to.

776
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,760
Speaker 3: Everyone in that organization, everyone in that city, well probably

777
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 3: people in the state cross state want them to win it.

778
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 3: They don't have to win it. The Boston Celtics, they

779
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 3: have no choice but to win the NBA Championship for

780
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 3: the twenty three to twenty four season.

781
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 1: There is no if and but's about it.

782
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 3: And if you don't get it done, you deserve all

783
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 3: the smoke you get, especially Jason Tatum, you deserve everything that's.

784
00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:36,360
Speaker 2: Coming to you.

785
00:34:36,680 --> 00:34:38,400
Speaker 3: So if you want people to shut up, and if

786
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 3: you don't want people to say, just do what my

787
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,360
Speaker 3: partner just said, just go win the damn thing and

788
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 3: you don't have to worry about it.

789

804
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,320
Speaker 2: type of person that I don't know if you actually

805
00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 2: have a physical calendar on your wall, but you definitely

806
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 2: have one in your brain that highlights every single NFL

807
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,800
Speaker 2: instance that ever happens throughout the year, and you celebrated

808
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 2: as such, right, I sure do.

809
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 6: So.

810
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 2: Whatever were your thoughts about the end of potential, end

811
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:44,120
Speaker 2: of OTAs?

812
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 1: That really really pissed me off.

813
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 3: It makes some courses, did yeah? Because it makes no

814
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:52,359
Speaker 3: sense Martin, It makes no sense. Why Why don't people

815
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,759
Speaker 3: think you can just show up and play football that will?

816
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 3: That really irks me.

817
00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:55,960
Speaker 9: Bro.

818
00:35:56,400 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 3: It's the most physical, mentally draining that there is, probably

819
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,800
Speaker 3: next to hockey. This is your body we're talking about.

820
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 1: You must have you ever?

821
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,840
Speaker 3: Okay, we work with former players right in for Salon

822
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 3: walks in here. He's still a large man. He doesn't

823
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 3: play anymore. He didn't hit the waist like he used it.

824
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,719
Speaker 3: Lava did not shrink. No, no, but he didn't shrink.

825
00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 3: LeVar Erison Like we work with former players. You're over

826
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 3: FS one, you see these guys walk through, and sometimes

827
00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,240
Speaker 3: you look at a guy and go, wow, he's really small.

828
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,720
Speaker 3: That means he was really good to be that little

829
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 3: and be able to you know, maneuver and not get

830
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,040
Speaker 3: killed out there. And then you see a huge guy

831
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 3: walks by and you're like, wow, is that what a

832
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,320
Speaker 3: d n or is that what to d tackle?

833
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 2: Our guard must just to keep it a Fox Ports Radio.

834
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 2: It's very hard for me to believe.

835
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:45,280
Speaker 1: I know it's true.

836
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:46,800
Speaker 2: I know it's true, but it's hard for me to

837
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 2: believe that Kerry Rhoads and Ephraim Salaam had the same job.

838
00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 3: Right, No, that said like, oh no, Mike Vick, Right,

839
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 3: you see that Mike vic six to one, two o

840
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 3: five at the most and was the most electrifying quarterback

841
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 3: we ever laid our eyes on. It's a year round job.

842
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 3: That's why you That's why the greats Martin what I

843
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 3: say about my homes right, I watch quarterback. I respected

844
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:14,600
Speaker 3: him so much more because I see the work he

845
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 3: puts in you gotta do that year. Yeah, you can

846
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:20,000
Speaker 3: go sit at the MAVs game have a beer, or

847
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 3: you can go sit in the sense of Central Pay

848
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 3: in the south of France on your yacht for a

849
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 3: week with your girl and have a But trust me,

850
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:29,359
Speaker 3: when you have boat ducks back in the US, you're

851
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 3: back to training, You're back to eating right, You're back

852
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,919
Speaker 3: to stretching every morning, You're back to yoga, meditation. That's

853
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 3: what the great players do. And you're telling me now

854
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,240
Speaker 3: that you want to take this away. Players learning routes,

855
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 3: guys getting in sync with each other, that camaraderie, that

856
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 3: cohesiveness that makes football go. You're gonna take that away.

857
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 3: That's it, man, I'm gonna shut up. Maw fuck cut.

858
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 1: So they want to.

859
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 2: Change O having to be a longer ramp up period,

860
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 2: I personally think it's a bad idea. OTA's are violent, luntary,

861
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 2: and that gives players an opportunity to take some time

862
00:38:03,080 --> 00:38:05,480
Speaker 2: off because I think these guys are working twenty four

863
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:07,799
Speaker 2: to seven, you know, just about any time, like you said,

864
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 2: like even you go to San Tropez or whatever. I

865
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 2: don't think they're now all of a sudden eating Cheetos

866
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 2: because they're in, you know, on vacation, Like I think

867
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 2: they're still probably eating healthy got chefs, some cooking for.

868
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 1: Him and all that type of stuff.

869
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 2: But Ben Johnson from Detroit, the offensive coordinator Detroit, he

870
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 2: said the quiet part out loud at Ota speaking of

871
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 2: OTA's because he was asked why he decided to pull

872
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 2: himself out of the running for some of these jobs

873
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 2: he had to seek. The Seahawks job was was he

874
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 2: was in the running for the Washington commander's job. He

875
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 2: was in the running for, so I had to come

876
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,560
Speaker 2: decided to come back to Detroit for the to be

877
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 2: the offensive coordinator twenty twenty four. He said, Look, when

878
00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:43,920
Speaker 2: it boils down to it, I wanted the sunshine a

879
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:45,800
Speaker 2: bit longer. That's what it comes down to for me.

880
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 2: He likes what they've built here, so on and so forth.

881
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 2: But this right here, VJ is the quiet part out lone.

882
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 2: I told it to you two years ago. I remember vividly.

883
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,279
Speaker 2: You were like, wow, you are right.

884
00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: I remember that.

885
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,879
Speaker 2: Like eight openings this year, said Ben Johnson, what would

886
00:38:59,920 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 2: you you set the over under in three years?

887
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 1: How many still have jobs? He said, I'd put the

888
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 1: over under at four.

889
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:06,560
Speaker 2: And a half. I'd say it's a good chance that

890
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 2: five of them are out of jobs in three years.

891
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,880
Speaker 1: And I told you it's the NFL coaching cycle.

892
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 2: You either have guys in years one, two, three, or

893
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 2: you had previously, the Tomlins, the Hardballs, the Belichick's, the

894
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:20,799
Speaker 2: Sean Payton's, the guys who have been there for ten

895
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 2: plus years, or the guys who are either getting fired

896
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 2: or getting hired. Right, there's only a handful of guys

897
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,800
Speaker 2: who remained Andy Reid, John Harball like that.

898
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,320
Speaker 1: Ben Johnson said the choir part out loud. Yeah, no,

899
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 1: he did, man, And it's dead on.

900
00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 3: And it's really it's really a shame because, in my opinion,

901
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:45,279
Speaker 3: it really kills the plane field, the level playing field,

902
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 3: because if you're recycling your head coach every three to

903
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 3: four years, Martin, you.

904
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 1: Have no shot. You have zero shot.

905
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 3: Let's go look at the last off the top of

906
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 3: our head, the last twenty Super Bowl winners. Who are

907
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 3: the coaches Martin, Bill Belichick, Sean Page, Andy Reid, Mike Tomlin,

908
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 3: I'm Mike McCarthy. Guys that have been in places for ten, twelve, fifteen,

909
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 3: sixty guys that are in places for a long time.

910
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,959
Speaker 3: Name me somebody that's been in hardball, Name me somebody

911
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:16,920
Speaker 3: that's been somewhere short. I mean maybe you could get

912
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 3: me Doug Peterson. Okay, you get that one. Okay, Doug Peterson.

913
00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 1: Who else?

914
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 2: But then again, just winning one doesn't get No. He

915
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 2: got in five three years exactly. Nick Sirianni right right

916
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,759
Speaker 2: on his heels, went to the Super Bowl. We'll see

917
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 2: what his You know, he's his job, his seat is hot.

918
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,839
Speaker 1: Well, he don't get back this year, he's gone. See

919
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 1: look at it, not real talk.

920
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:36,359
Speaker 3: If he don't get back to lust at an NFC

921
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,040
Speaker 3: championship game this year. If there's any type of rumblings,

922
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 3: are any dysfunction or any player, any major power player

923
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 3: that's pissed off at him, he's gone.

924
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 2: Especially consading the where it ended last year. Look, eight

925
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 2: of the last nine games, come out, come out, go

926
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 2: over four? See how many people care about that super

927
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:53,359
Speaker 2: Bowl coming up next?

928
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,200
Speaker 1: Is it too late to say we're sorry?

929
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,240
Speaker 2: Keep in locked. This is Martin and VJ Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2: that tire buying should be vj uh, you know it's

935
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:18,120
Speaker 2: I was about to say something crazy saying. I was

936
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:20,680
Speaker 2: about to say it's a good thing. Glenn Davis is

937
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 2: locked up right now, but I'm not sure if he

938
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 2: actually is locked up. I'm going to say, big baby

939
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:28,319
Speaker 2: locked up. Did you know you didn't see no, big

940
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 2: big baby locked on?

941
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:29,520
Speaker 5: What do you do?

942
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:33,239
Speaker 2: Oh? Oh? He did something with the He was scamming

943
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 2: the injury settlement, the NBA insurance fraud. Basically was claiming

944
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 2: he had injuries and then didn't. He ended up being

945
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 2: convicted and he's gonna have to do a couple years.

946
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 2: He's gonna have to do some time. Are you what

947
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 2: I can gather what? I'm not kidding at all, trying

948
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,800
Speaker 2: to find exactly forty months there? It is forty months

949
00:41:51,920 --> 00:41:53,839
Speaker 2: in prison for big Baby Davis.

950
00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 1: So just just three years? God, why though, why would you?

951
00:41:58,680 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 1: I don't know.

952
00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 3: I can't can't call it, man, people do. People do

953
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 3: wild stuff for a lot of reasons.

954
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:07,880
Speaker 2: So he said that the US Attorney Damian Williams urged

955
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,520
Speaker 2: the prosecuting attorney to sentence Davis to a turn within

956
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,240
Speaker 2: the recommended range of thirty seven and forty six months,

957
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 2: writing that Davis was more culpable than some of his

958
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 2: co conspirators, some of whom just quote merely made a

959
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 2: false submission. Davis went further by forging signatures, visiting physicians

960
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,360
Speaker 2: for a phony appointments, and lying to the Plans Council

961
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 2: knowing saying he knowingly engaged in multiple instances of defrauding

962
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 2: a plan intended to benefit NBA players and their families. Now,

963
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 2: the reason why I brought that up, though, was because I.

964
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:40,200
Speaker 1: Was about to say, where's this segment going.

965
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 2: I don't think that there was anybody matter, anybody matter

966
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 2: in the whole world. And when Kyrie Irving came back

967
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 2: to Boston and stepped on Lucky the Leper carn Yeah, midcourt,

968
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:54,680
Speaker 2: Glenn Davis was mad boy, he was upset. So it's

969
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 2: a good thing he's already got some other things occupying

970
00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 2: his attention right now as yet.

971
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,200
Speaker 1: I mean, that would be probably number one.

972
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 2: On my list.

973
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: It's like, damn, I'm about to be in jail the

974
00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 1: next for you.

975
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,840
Speaker 2: Three at least three and a quarter, but ky the

976
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,840
Speaker 2: fact remains though this is Kyrie Irving's return to Boston.

977
00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 2: And also you know, on a on a you know,

978
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,400
Speaker 2: on a back page headlines, also Chris STAPs Virginia's returning

979
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 2: to Dallas, but was it wasn't quite so animosity filled.

980
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: When Chris Staff left Dallas, they were kind of good.

981
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:24,440
Speaker 1: They were good on him.

982
00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:27,759
Speaker 2: Where Kyrie they were like, excuse me, sir, will you

983
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 2: get the hell up out of here? We don't want

984
00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:31,080
Speaker 2: you here no more. We don't like you. We don't

985
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:31,320
Speaker 2: like you.

986
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: I hate the way that you dressed, the way that

987
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:33,280
Speaker 1: you talk.

988
00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 2: You know very much, Okay, ken't very much that energy

989
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 2: for Kyrie when he was leaving Boston, and because it

990
00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:43,399
Speaker 2: started out kind of funny, and he started out saying,

991
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,279
Speaker 2: I would love to be here long term, if you'll

992
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 2: have me, and then it seemed by the end of

993
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 2: well it was two years and they would not. Then

994
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 2: he goes to Brooklyn, and you know, you have the

995
00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 2: whole thing with the tweet of the movie and the

996
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 2: whole thing with the vaccine, and now then he goes

997
00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 2: from Brooklyn and he's playing in Boston. He's giving people

998
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,040
Speaker 2: to double middle fingers and all this and that and

999
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,279
Speaker 2: the third and he got traded to Dallas.

1000
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:04,680
Speaker 1: Right after that.

1001
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:08,879
Speaker 2: Now, I remember vividly having a conversation with you talking

1002
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,080
Speaker 2: about you were saying that this might be the reason

1003
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,440
Speaker 2: why Luca the requests a trade in two or three years,

1004
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:18,080
Speaker 2: you know, because we've seen that out of him before,

1005
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:20,880
Speaker 2: or I've seen that out of Stars before, like they

1006
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,400
Speaker 2: were gonna use that an excuse. I thought that Kyrier

1007
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 2: everyone was on his way out of the league because

1008
00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 2: just the way he was doing everything off the quarter,

1009
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 2: it wasn't about his game. And now since he's been

1010
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 2: in Dallas, though, he seems to have turned a major corner,

1011
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:36,759
Speaker 2: not only in his life, but just in the way

1012
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,959
Speaker 2: that he presents himself to the media, presents himself at work.

1013
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:41,239
Speaker 4: You know.

1014
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 2: I mean, this guy was a guy remember he took

1015
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 2: he was treating in the NBA season like like like

1016
00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 2: you got PTO, you know, like like you just get

1017
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 2: take games off whenever you wanted to at certain times.

1018
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:53,800
Speaker 2: But I think it's a bridge too far to like

1019
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 2: go ahead and like say anything. But it seems like

1020
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,360
Speaker 2: Kyrie is handling himself much better. I don't know how

1021
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,719
Speaker 2: much of a pad on the back. He needs to.

1022
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:06,759
Speaker 1: He deserves quote unquote to be able to just do the.

1023
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 2: Job as it's supposed to be done, as we see

1024
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,560
Speaker 2: other people have the ability to do it. Like, definitely

1025
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:13,879
Speaker 2: give him like a round of applause, so to speak,

1026
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:18,120
Speaker 2: for not necessarily being as abrasive as he once was.

1027
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:19,800
Speaker 2: And he does seem to be at a level of

1028
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,400
Speaker 2: peace and a level of serenity that did not exist

1029
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 2: really at prior points in his NBA career.

1030
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:28,279
Speaker 1: He's done that now.

1031
00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 2: But do you think that he deserves like a nationwide

1032
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,520
Speaker 2: apology for that or whatever term he'd like to use

1033
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:34,759
Speaker 2: for that.

1034
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,799
Speaker 3: No, I don't, But let me let me make sure

1035
00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 3: I explain why no, Because I'm sure there's people out

1036
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 3: there like, what hold on, that's that's afro Reed, that's

1037
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:46,000
Speaker 3: Vj's Duale VJ. VJ been riding with afrol Re since

1038
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 3: he didn't you know, he signed with Duke, Like that's

1039
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,960
Speaker 3: my guy. I had a chance to talk to Kyrie recently,

1040
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 3: all right, and I had a chance to ask him

1041
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 3: what was this when I was covering the Clippers, and

1042
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:58,560
Speaker 3: when I was covering the Clippers in the maps, I

1043
00:45:58,560 --> 00:45:59,920
Speaker 3: had a chance to talkt to Kyrie in the back

1044
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,279
Speaker 3: ways of Crypto one night. Very very nice guy, man,

1045
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:04,880
Speaker 3: and that's talk. I'm a big fan of yours. He

1046
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 3: mind for just an actual question too, before you get

1047
00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 3: out of here. This was after the presser, which I

1048
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,680
Speaker 3: got a question in in the presser, also in the

1049
00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 3: press conference room. He's like, yeah, sure, I said, just

1050
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,080
Speaker 3: how does it feel now? You seem to be at peace?

1051
00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:18,120
Speaker 3: And that was the term I used because as I

1052
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:19,839
Speaker 3: joke around with you guys, but I'm really serious about

1053
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:22,040
Speaker 3: how I take how seriously I take my therapy, and

1054
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,320
Speaker 3: how seriously I take my yoga, and how seriously I

1055
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 3: take my meditation. I know people make fun of me

1056
00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:28,719
Speaker 3: or joker about, but it's real, guys. It really will

1057
00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 3: calm you. When you're going through a lot in your life.

1058
00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 3: You need a calming force, whether you believe in God,

1059
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,839
Speaker 3: whether you're praying, whether you're going to the beach, whether

1060
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 3: you're sitting on top of the hills out here in

1061
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 3: l A.

1062
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: Go for a hike in La man.

1063
00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 3: And sit up on one of these hills and just

1064
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:45,000
Speaker 3: overlook the city for thirty minutes and breathe. Trust me, guys,

1065

00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 3: Hike my Holland drive and you'll see exactly what I'm

1068
00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,720
Speaker 3: talking about by the Hollywood sign. But Culver City steps

1069
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:00,799
Speaker 3: yeh oh my god, I've never have you done those?

1070
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:02,320
Speaker 3: I used to do them all the time when I

1071
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,440
Speaker 3: live down there. And my question was, what the hell

1072
00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 3: was on top of these things?

1073
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:05,799
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1074
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 2: Exactly who's timing the mail bandum things?

1075
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,600
Speaker 1: Oh so you didn't go all the way to the top. No, no, No,

1076
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 1: the times I've gone, I've gone over at the top.

1077
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 2: But it's like, so the people who are not initiated

1078
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 2: and don't know what I'm talking about. The Clover City steps,

1079
00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:23,040
Speaker 2: they're stairs, sure, but they're like stairs that Indiana Jones would. Yeah,

1080
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 2: they're like in the ground.

1081
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,560
Speaker 3: They're like steps to somebody put in the dirt, like

1082
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,520
Speaker 3: indented into the land. That's a good reference to Indiana Jones.

1083
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 3: But peace man, you said it. He's out of peace.

1084
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,440
Speaker 3: He's got his kids, he's got his lady. And he

1085
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:40,399
Speaker 3: told me, he said, I've surrounded my people. I've changed

1086
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:44,000
Speaker 3: my circle and I've surrounded my people that I mess

1087
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 3: with and that messed with me. I tell people all

1088
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:48,239
Speaker 3: the time, you want to know who really messed with you,

1089
00:47:48,560 --> 00:47:50,640
Speaker 3: ask God to remove people from your life who don't

1090
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:51,040
Speaker 3: have your.

1091
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:52,800
Speaker 1: Best interest at hand. He will do.

1092
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 3: To trust me, he will do just that. And Kyrie said,

1093
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:56,960
Speaker 3: that's what he did. He said, I had to really

1094
00:47:57,080 --> 00:48:00,640
Speaker 3: just realize that everybody wasn't for me. I wasn't everybody,

1095
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 3: and I needed to just put different people in my circle,

1096
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:06,720
Speaker 3: and I needed to put myself in different circles. Kyrie

1097
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:08,919
Speaker 3: was going through a lot. Remember, there was things about

1098
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:11,759
Speaker 3: with his sister. There was things personally going on. There

1099
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,040
Speaker 3: was somebody the very famously and the pressed that was

1100
00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:15,600
Speaker 3: going at his dad and going at him.

1101
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,600
Speaker 1: There was a lot going on. And he also talks

1102
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:19,720
Speaker 1: about the death of his grandfather.

1103
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,560
Speaker 3: I was about to go there. Absolutely, you don't know

1104
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:25,160
Speaker 3: what a lot of people are going and we all

1105
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 3: doing more. We all get on air, we all talk

1106
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:30,000
Speaker 3: some trash, we all talk some smack. Nobody runs their

1107
00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 3: mouth more than VJ, the Big Vanilla Funny. I know that,

1108
00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,239
Speaker 3: but I also know that these guys are human beings too,

1109
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 3: and there's a lot going on. But he did he

1110
00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 3: looked me face straight, My face. He goes, I'm at

1111
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:40,919
Speaker 3: a piece right now, man, I'm at a different level.

1112
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 3: I'm at a different piece and that's fine. So the

1113
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 3: whole apology thing, no, and nobody owes you an apology. Okay,

1114
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 3: people go down Twitter see if people want to apologize

1115
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,800
Speaker 3: to Kyrie. Right now, the man has gotten to the

1116
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 3: finals and he's still getting trash, he's still getting ripped

1117
00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:00,520
Speaker 3: apart by people, but he does not care over matter.

1118
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,239
Speaker 3: My old football coach, Coach Covetton at Garfold High School

1119
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:05,880
Speaker 3: in Wibb's, virginiaused to always tell me, Husky, it's mine.

1120
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,719
Speaker 2: Over matter if you don't mind, they and it don't matter.

1121
00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:12,440
Speaker 2: And that's where he is and you can see that.

1122
00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:14,719
Speaker 3: And I also asked Jason Kidd in one of the

1123
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,480
Speaker 3: pregame pressers, how do you feel having about two vets

1124
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,440
Speaker 3: in leaders? His exact response, he goes, well, I know

1125
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 3: there's this thing that lucas the leader. He goes, Kyrie's

1126
00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:25,480
Speaker 3: the vet leader of this team.

1127
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 1: Kyrie.

1128
00:49:26,480 --> 00:49:29,840
Speaker 2: Imagine he saying that just five years ago. That's like,

1129
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,080
Speaker 2: like Kyrie is the veteran leader.

1130
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:34,279
Speaker 3: Kyrie hes got the Boston I would have said it,

1131
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:36,200
Speaker 3: but after that, no, Yeah.

1132
00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:38,880
Speaker 1: Like Kyrie is the mass is the flag that flies

1133
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:39,239
Speaker 1: our ship.

1134
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:40,880
Speaker 3: Look that's crazy, No it is. And I have an

1135
00:49:40,880 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 3: own video. I have an own video on my phone.

1136
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:44,719
Speaker 3: Jason Kids exact word. He goes, Kyrie Irvin is the

1137
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:46,719
Speaker 3: leader of this team. He's the veteran leader of this team.

1138
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:48,440
Speaker 3: He's the guy to get the guys together. He's the

1139
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 3: guy that pulls all the guys to his house for dinner.

1140
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,880
Speaker 3: They hang out. Luca said the same thing. Luca it

1141
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 3: said himself. He taught me how to remove myself from

1142
00:49:57,239 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 3: basketball because Luca's.

1143
00:49:58,840 --> 00:50:00,440
Speaker 1: Twenty five guys. What else as he know?

1144
00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:03,359
Speaker 3: He's not from here. He's from Slovenia. He's not from here.

1145
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,239
Speaker 3: So it's like joker, right, Joker looks at us. He

1146
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:08,799
Speaker 3: probably looks at us and laugh as Americans Like, dude,

1147
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:10,799
Speaker 3: I just want to go back home and just get

1148
00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:13,399
Speaker 3: to Serbia and just get my horses and getting around

1149
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 3: my family and my brothers. And he grilled meat out

1150
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,360
Speaker 3: in the yard like that's what they do, bro and

1151
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:21,040
Speaker 3: grilled meat in the yard. Baby that said, that's the

1152
00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:21,719
Speaker 3: old Go.

1153
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:23,800
Speaker 2: To the grocery store and by meat, yes, to the

1154
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:27,040
Speaker 2: meat section, by meat, like one meat please? Yeah, exactly

1155
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,920
Speaker 2: exactly a hunk of meat and then you make all

1156
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:30,720
Speaker 2: and cut yourself.

1157
00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:32,880
Speaker 3: But yeah, man, and that was a pleasure for me

1158
00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 3: because I'm a fan and to get a chance to

1159
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:36,279
Speaker 3: ask him that, you know, face to face.

1160
00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:37,560
Speaker 1: That's what he used. The word piece.

1161
00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:39,480
Speaker 3: He said, I'm out of peace right now, and you're right.

1162
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:41,719
Speaker 3: So being that he's at his own piece, guess what, Marty.

1163
00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 3: He could care less about who wants to apologize and

1164
00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 3: who doesn't. And I'm gonna go a step further, Marty.

1165
00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:48,759
Speaker 3: He's not gonna rough with no feathers. He's not gonna

1166
00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 3: talk to you, mark my words. He's not gonna talk

1167
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 3: to the fans there. Boston's already to jump on Kyrie.

1168
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:56,920
Speaker 3: They're all ready to get Kyrie all rouled up, and

1169
00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:58,800
Speaker 3: you know, so he could do the double burden of

1170
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:01,759
Speaker 3: Kyrie Irvins not gonna do none of that, you, mark

1171
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:04,239
Speaker 3: my words. The guy you don't want to the guy

1172
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:06,480
Speaker 3: you don't want to piss off. Luca's gonna play the

1173
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 3: big brother. As far as the animosity goes in these finals.

1174
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:12,800
Speaker 3: When they played Games one and two in Boston, I

1175
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 3: can see Kyrie Kanna may be grabbing him out a

1176
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:16,920
Speaker 3: moment or two in one of these games, markin and

1177
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,440
Speaker 3: pulling him back, saying, hey, bro, it's cool, calm down,

1178
00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:22,240
Speaker 3: don't worry about I know these guys, right, I know these.

1179
00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:25,840
Speaker 2: Guys say if Kyrie will do that, because an angry

1180
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 2: Luca Daunts is one of the most dangerous weapons on

1181
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:31,719
Speaker 2: that court man, yeah true, yeah, true, true.

1182
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:34,280
Speaker 1: That towards the fans and not the officials.

1183
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:35,279
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what.

1184
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 9: You know, who's crying now to Snoop, who talks real talk,

1185
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 9: who talks tracks to Snoop Dogg. But but you think

1186
00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,480
Speaker 9: luc with Snoop, you think Luke, But you think Luca

1187
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:49,240
Speaker 9: caer He don't one bit, he don't.

1188
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 2: That's gonna be fascinating because I do the basically, Like

1189
00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:54,960
Speaker 2: it sounds crazy to say now if you you know

1190
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 2: we're involved, we're under a rock for the last three

1191
00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:00,080
Speaker 2: years of Kyrie Irvys's career. But I do think that

1192
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:03,120
Speaker 2: Kyrie will walk into Boston Garden with smiles on his face, yes,

1193
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 2: as people are booming him and whatever, and he may

1194
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,120
Speaker 2: like I could see him like just kind of like

1195
00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,200
Speaker 2: waving like like the but like the pageant queen wave,

1196
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 2: like a princess wave like, hey, okay, good to see

1197
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,360
Speaker 2: you again, like you know what I'm saying, but not

1198
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 2: like an angry, like double middle finger salute type of thing. No.

1199
00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:21,800
Speaker 2: Luca Dantis, on the other hand, is going to be

1200
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:23,800
Speaker 2: calling them all types of When I started going, the

1201
00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 2: FCC would find the hell out of us.

1202
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:26,920
Speaker 1: Hey, let me tell you something, man, I thought I

1203
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:27,759
Speaker 1: had a potty mouth.

1204
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:28,239

1207
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:33,160
Speaker 3: I grew up on Eddie Murphy and Richard Pryor Martin

1208
00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:36,319
Speaker 3: Lawrence to Tracy Morgan, I grew up on comedians that cuss.

1209
00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:38,160
Speaker 3: When I get over the Martin. You've seen me perform,

1210
00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:40,759
Speaker 3: was I was? I PG comedian on stage? Martin, No,

1211
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:45,400

00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:47,920
Speaker 3: used to cuss. Jordan used to cut. You can read

Speaker 3: of a lot of you know, I don't mind it, man,

1216
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:56,200

Speaker 2: Mary.

1218
00:52:56,800 --> 00:53:00,080

00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:07,439
Speaker 1: Our player or our team.

00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:14,360
Speaker 3: and I have to miss some.

1227

1229
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,080

1230
00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:24,279
Speaker 3: for Kyrie hurfan to come out. It was after midnight, bro,

1231
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:27,600

00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,480
Speaker 3: to look like a group here's I'm like, yeah, I'm

1236
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:37,279

00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:37,480
Speaker 5: Man.

1238
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:39,800
Speaker 3: I was waiting for Kyrie to come up because I

1239
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:41,640
Speaker 3: wanted to meet the guy and just tell man, I'm

1240
00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:42,000

Speaker 2: Man, Like, how you still go for yourself?

Speaker 1: Whatever people say? But can I get one? Just ask

Speaker 1: your career. He's like, yeah, yeah, for sure.

1245
00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:50,560
Speaker 2: Were you surprised how tall he was? Yes, that's my

1246
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:52,839
Speaker 2: number one three week go watch when you actually see

1247
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:53,879
Speaker 2: NBA players in person.

1248
00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 3: It was like, wait a minute, Yes, you're tall. Yes,

1249
00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,360
Speaker 3: he's taller than me. Yeah, and so Stefan, and so

1250
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 3: is Steph curR. Steph Curry was the big surprise. Steph

1251
00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:04,719
Speaker 3: was the big surprise because I did not know he

1252
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:06,800
Speaker 3: was that tall, and I didn't know he was that

1253
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 3: like he's got that cut on him, like he's got

1254
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:11,479
Speaker 3: he puts some muscle, he's lifting away, hes put some muscle.

1255
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,799
Speaker 3: I didn't know he was that that that that I hate.

1256
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:16,239
Speaker 3: I don't want to say thick because people are gonna

1257
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:18,759
Speaker 3: teach me, But no, I didn't know he was that.

1258
00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:21,400
Speaker 1: You know, he was that Bill. I didn't know Steph Curry.

1259
00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:24,279
Speaker 1: I had no idea how he was that. And Luca too.

1260
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:26,520
Speaker 3: When Luca walks in. I like to stand up in

1261
00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:28,000
Speaker 3: the press room, Mark now, I like to sit down.

1262
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:29,799
Speaker 3: I like to stand up against the wall because that's

1263
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:31,680
Speaker 3: where the guys are that are holding the mic and

1264
00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,880
Speaker 3: you could get your question in. More likely after they

1265
00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:37,319
Speaker 3: go to the big time media guys, you could get

1266
00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,080
Speaker 3: your question in because if you're standing right by the guy,

1267
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:40,960
Speaker 3: you could just say, hey, man, after you know, Ramona,

1268
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:42,400
Speaker 3: can I you know, can I get my question in.

1269
00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:46,240
Speaker 3: So Luca walks right in by him. I go, wow, okay,

1270
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:49,759
Speaker 3: no wonder he's so slow but can get in front

1271
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 3: of you and put you on his hip and keep

1272
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 3: you off. He doesn't get his shot black because when

1273
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,600
Speaker 3: you watch Luca play, doesn't some time you look and go, bro,

1274
00:54:56,920 --> 00:54:58,680
Speaker 3: how are y'all letting this dude do this to y'all?

1275
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:02,680
Speaker 3: He slows frozen malas like, how is he getting by

1276
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 3: you guys and shooting over Rudy Gobert. You're a seven

1277
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:09,920
Speaker 3: foot of shot blocker. He's a big. He's a tall big.

1278
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:12,480
Speaker 3: But yes, I was very surprised when Kyrie walked in.

1279
00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:14,360
Speaker 1: I was like, wow, he's tall.

1280
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:16,200
Speaker 2: I did not know he was that big.

1281
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:18,759
Speaker 1: Okay, Yes, I was very shocked at how tall he was.

1282
00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:20,719
Speaker 2: I remember the first time I saw Lebron and I

1283
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:23,239
Speaker 2: was like, this, this is gotta be the biggest person

1284
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:24,359
Speaker 2: I've ever seen in my life.

1285
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:25,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, for me, it was Shack.

1286
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,520
Speaker 3: I saw Shock at Disney Disney World in Orlando after

1287
00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:30,759
Speaker 3: he won his second ring with the Lakers, and that

1288
00:55:31,040 --> 00:55:32,640
Speaker 3: was the largest human being I've ever seen.

1289
00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:35,640
Speaker 2: Well, coming up next, we will break down the Mavericks

1290
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:38,040
Speaker 2: road to the Finals and how they ended up in

1291
00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:40,960
Speaker 2: this position because it is a long and winding one.

1292
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 2: It's like if the Celtics just took the freeway straight through,

1293
00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:47,360
Speaker 2: the Mavericks took every size streak possible to get to

1294
00:55:47,440 --> 00:55:49,880
Speaker 2: the NBA Finals. We'll break that down. Coming up next,

1295
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:53,480
Speaker 2: Martin and VJ, Fox Sports Radio. Martin and VJ coming

1296
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:55,759
Speaker 2: to your life from the tire Rack dot Com Studios,

1297
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:58,440
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. And by the way, you can hit

1298
00:55:58,520 --> 00:56:00,560
Speaker 2: us up on Twitter. I'm at Martin, whye VJA at

1299
00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 2: the Big Vanilla funny and a bunch of people taking

1300
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:04,279
Speaker 2: that opportunity.

1301
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 1: To correct us.

1302
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:08,760
Speaker 2: VJ. I saw it Al Addles and Casey Jones coaches

1303
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:10,760
Speaker 2: in the nineteen seventy five NBA Finals.

1304
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,440
Speaker 1: This was the third time we have seen.

1305
00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:16,520
Speaker 2: Two black head coaches in the NBA Finals.

1306
00:56:16,840 --> 00:56:19,399
Speaker 3: But honestly, I think initially mart I said, I think

1307
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:21,560
Speaker 3: I thought it was like second or third, but maybe

1308
00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:23,680
Speaker 3: the first I thought it was between one and three.

1309
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:25,560
Speaker 1: But you know, but yeah, it wasn't the first.

1310
00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:27,560
Speaker 2: And I'll go ahead. I don't like the way that

1311
00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:31,120
Speaker 2: they do this sometimes because to me, it's the second time,

1312
00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 2: because when you have Mike Brown filling in for Steve Kerr,

1313
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:37,360
Speaker 2: He's not the head coach, right, He wasn't hired to

1314
00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:39,239
Speaker 2: be the head coach. Steve Kerr was hired to be

1315
00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:41,239
Speaker 2: the head coach and was the head coach, and while

1316
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:43,279
Speaker 2: Mike Brown was the head coach and in Absencia, he

1317
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:46,000
Speaker 2: wasn't the head coach of the team. So I'll go ahead.

1318
00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:47,920
Speaker 2: I'm striking that one from the record. This is the

1319
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:50,440
Speaker 2: second time that we've had two black head coaches in

1320
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:51,279
Speaker 2: the NBA Final.

1321
00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:53,520
Speaker 3: I'm not mad at that, But my question would be,

1322
00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,960
Speaker 3: do they does he get the win? If he gets

1323
00:56:57,080 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 3: the win, then it's gonna go on his head coaching

1324
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 3: win lost record. If Mike Brown gets that win, I

1325
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:05,640
Speaker 3: don't know the answer. I'm asking. I don't know the answer.

1326
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 3: If he does get the wind though, then you know,

1327
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 3: But I'm kind of with you, like, like, dude, he

1328
00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 3: filled in, Like does he get like did Walton get

1329
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,319
Speaker 3: all those wins when he filled in for Kirk?

1330
00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:16,200
Speaker 1: Did those go on?

1331
00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:19,320
Speaker 2: I'm sure they want of Luke Walton's head coaching record,

1332
00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:21,840
Speaker 2: but it's still gonna be interim next to it, right,

1333
00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,480
Speaker 2: It's not you know, filling next to it. It's not

1334
00:57:24,600 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 2: the same, not the same juice, but were filling on

1335
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:29,240
Speaker 2: the show. They don't change the name of the show.

1336
00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 2: Yeah right, Yeah, we're just feeling it exactly exactly what

1337
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:35,320
Speaker 2: Martin Wise and VJ Husky filling in.

1338
00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:37,400
Speaker 1: Feeling it exactly. They don't call it the Martin and

1339
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:39,840
Speaker 1: VJ Show. They don't change. These two sports riders handle

1340
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:40,640
Speaker 1: a radio show.

1341
00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 3: One doesn't believe in the moon. That was the dude,

1342
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 3: that was the best drop that it has ever been

1343
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:52,360
Speaker 3: made for us. Shout out to Alex.

1344
00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:53,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, what was it?

1345
00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:55,080
Speaker 1: Martin weis he went to grad school.

1346
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,480
Speaker 3: No, No, two degrees the moon. One has two degrees,

1347
00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:01,959
Speaker 3: the other one doesn't believe in the moon. That's awesome, dude,

1348
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:03,040
Speaker 3: that's the best drop ever.

1349
00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 1: Now he's speaking of flat earthers, Kyrie Irving.

1350
00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:06,840
Speaker 2: And the Dallas ever.

1351
00:58:08,840 --> 00:58:10,360
Speaker 1: Leave my man Afro alone.

1352
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:13,640
Speaker 2: He about to win a chip. They had an interesting

1353
00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,680
Speaker 2: pass to the NBA Finals from the five seed. Now

1354
00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:21,240
Speaker 2: you want to compare in contrast to Boston. Boston had

1355
00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 2: a walk down the yellow bick row. Dallas had you know,

1356
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:26,480
Speaker 2: the fight out of the Hunger Games to get to

1357
00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 2: the NBA Finals, even though the games necessarily weren't necessarily

1358
00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:33,480
Speaker 2: the serieson goes super long, but you go out and

1359
00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 2: take out the Clippers who were missing mission Kawhi Leonard

1360
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:37,960
Speaker 2: for part of the time, right, but he was in

1361
00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:38,760
Speaker 2: and out of the lineup.

1362
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:40,720
Speaker 1: I think that also probably.

1363
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:44,720
Speaker 2: Had some issues there, you know, And and the Clippers

1364
00:58:44,760 --> 00:58:48,880
Speaker 2: trying to prepare for Dallas, right because obviously Kawhi plays,

1365
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 2: that's a much different team than if he doesn't play, right,

1366
00:58:51,880 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 2: but you got to integrate him back into the system.

1367
00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:54,439
Speaker 1: So on and so forth.

1368
00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:57,560
Speaker 2: Then you play Oklahoma City Thunder, who were the ones

1369
00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:02,160
Speaker 2: were the top three seed the entire season, right basically

1370
00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:05,640
Speaker 2: and super young, but still had some.

1371
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:07,360
Speaker 1: Really good players, And without PJ.

1372
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:09,800
Speaker 2: Washington shooting the lights out, I don't know if that

1373
00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 2: series is over in the same way that it ended.

1374
00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 2: And then of course the upstart Minnesota Timberwolves, who I've

1375
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 2: seen people saying stuff like this is like Denver would

1376
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:20,240
Speaker 2: have beaten the Dallas Mavericks.

1377
00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 1: I don't buy it, dude.

1378
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,560
Speaker 2: I think when you look at what Dallas did at

1379
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:30,320
Speaker 2: the trade deadline, adding Gafford and adding Washington, you cannot

1380
00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 2: understate those moves.

1381
00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:34,640
Speaker 1: You can't understate them because.

1382
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 2: I think without them, like without howbout like without them

1383
00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:38,920
Speaker 2: that Derek.

1384
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:40,600
Speaker 1: Lively game, that's a loss.

1385
00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Like, you're gonna lose that

1386
00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:46,080
Speaker 2: game because when he can't play. Also, you'd be playing

1387
00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:50,480
Speaker 2: guys like Derek Lively forty some minutes in game as

1388
00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:53,120
Speaker 2: a rookie, Like does he hit the rookie wall? You know,

1389
00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:55,040
Speaker 2: like that doesn't happen when you have a guy like

1390
00:59:55,120 --> 00:59:58,000
Speaker 2: Gafford to be able to spell him. Even though Gafford

1391
00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:00,560
Speaker 2: is technically the starter, Lively plays more minutes.

1392
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:03,400
Speaker 3: Well, Barkley is the one that just just to re inerrate,

1393
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,919
Speaker 3: Barkley was the one who came out him Andremond said

1394
01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:09,600
Speaker 3: that Denver would beat that, Denver would have beaten Dallas

1395
01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 3: and that this was just a whole matchup thing reason

1396
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:14,160
Speaker 3: why Minnesota was probably gonna lose this yearies. That was

1397
01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:17,120
Speaker 3: after game one, Game two, I think after game two.

1398
01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:19,080
Speaker 3: That was after game two, he said, So he's one

1399
01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:21,440
Speaker 3: of the you know, big name guys who put that

1400
01:00:21,480 --> 01:00:21,720
Speaker 3: out there.

1401
01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:22,800
Speaker 1: Dallas would have beat them.

1402
01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:25,920
Speaker 3: Well, guess what, Dallas didn't get there, and Dallas didn't

1403
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 3: do their job and win their series. So I hate

1404
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:30,760
Speaker 3: the whole a team that's sitting on their asset home

1405
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:32,919
Speaker 3: on the SOFA would have been a team that's still

1406
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:35,240
Speaker 3: playing like, okay, then they should have beat who'd be

1407
01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:37,120
Speaker 3: who they're playing, and then they would be there, and

1408
01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:39,320
Speaker 3: then we can say that. But also, let's go back

1409
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:42,880
Speaker 3: to Dallas just two years ago. This was a three

1410
01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:46,160
Speaker 3: point shooting team. This was an up and down team.

1411
01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:50,200
Speaker 3: This was a first to one twenty team. They now rebound,

1412
01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:54,400
Speaker 3: they now block shots, they now play defense. Kyrie Irvin

1413
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:58,200
Speaker 3: is now Lockett. Listen, I like an and he's still

1414
01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:01,160
Speaker 3: on my he's still on my super star lists. And

1415
01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 3: and and Edwards didn't lose that for me because they

1416
01:01:04,120 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 3: got knocked out of the series and got embarrassed. These

1417
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:09,760
Speaker 3: things happened to young players. But Kyrie, you can't tell

1418
01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 3: me you thought Kyrie would line up in front of

1419
01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:13,880
Speaker 3: this guy. And there was not one, not two, not

1420
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:16,960
Speaker 3: three percent Martin. There were a handful of possessions throughout

1421
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:19,080
Speaker 3: the series where and is trying to go between the

1422
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,480
Speaker 3: lad's trying to cross like he couldn't lose them, bro,

1423
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:24,760
Speaker 3: he couldn't get past Kyrie. So when you look at

1424
01:01:24,800 --> 01:01:28,280
Speaker 3: what this team has turned into and what that front

1425
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:32,640
Speaker 3: office and player personnel and the GM has done, and

1426
01:01:32,760 --> 01:01:36,000
Speaker 3: the way They really scripted this team and built this team,

1427
01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:40,600
Speaker 3: kind of repackaged it around. Luca added some guys. I've

1428
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,320
Speaker 3: openly admitted I thought I thought DL two was gonna

1429
01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 3: be some cut I thought that kid was gonna be

1430
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:49,200
Speaker 3: some straight sauce. That is an active young man right there.

1431
01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:53,280
Speaker 3: He's got twelve years. That's DeAndre. That's that's your DeAndre Jordan,

1432
01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 3: am I Ben, that's a that's a young That's what

1433
01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 3: Deldre Jordan was right.

1434
01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 1: Just conna, Hey, listen, we ain't gonna run much for you.

1435
01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:00,560
Speaker 3: But hey man, when you run the hot pick and roller,

1436
01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:02,960
Speaker 3: they sing when you get the past, turn, pivot, find

1437
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:04,760
Speaker 3: the open guy, and then just go to the basket

1438
01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:07,000
Speaker 3: and let the guards do everything else, and you just

1439
01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:09,400
Speaker 3: clean up, get your paper towels and your windecks out,

1440
01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:11,400
Speaker 3: clean some glass for us, make sure the glass is

1441
01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:13,280
Speaker 3: nice at streaky clean for us, and then.

1442
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:15,240
Speaker 1: And you're gonna make some money down the line.

1443
01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:15,480
Speaker 2: Brother.

1444
01:02:15,760 --> 01:02:17,919
Speaker 1: So I like the way they've taken this team.

1445
01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:20,439
Speaker 2: Tim Hardaway Junior can't get on the court, Martin can't

1446
01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:21,520
Speaker 2: even he can't.

1447
01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:23,800
Speaker 1: Tim Hardaway Junior is their biggest cheerleader.

1448
01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:25,680
Speaker 3: And during like when I'm watching the game and I'm

1449
01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:27,600
Speaker 3: watching them, and you know what do they go to

1450
01:02:27,640 --> 01:02:30,200
Speaker 3: commercial breaking slow mode with the with the team running

1451
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 3: over to the bench, and I'm like, bro, he's the

1452
01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 3: first one off the bench every single time.

1453
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:38,000
Speaker 2: But that's DNA. His dad played. He gets it.

1454
01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,440
Speaker 1: Don't sit on the bench and pout. Don't pout like

1455
01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:41,440
Speaker 1: a little kid like my.

1456
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:43,960
Speaker 3: Daughter Journey does when she can't have a juice after

1457
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:45,320
Speaker 3: ten thirty eight night.

1458
01:02:45,600 --> 01:02:46,760
Speaker 2: Hey man, be part of it.

1459
01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 3: Get up because you're gonna get all You're gonna get

1460
01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:50,760
Speaker 3: a ring, just like everybody else. If we get a ring,

1461
01:02:50,840 --> 01:02:52,919
Speaker 3: you get a ring too. So I love what they've

1462
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:55,520
Speaker 3: done with this team, the way they put this team together,

1463
01:02:55,920 --> 01:02:57,919
Speaker 3: And that's why I say, man, that's why I'm picking

1464
01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:01,320
Speaker 3: them to win it, because I just love the changes

1465
01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:03,600
Speaker 3: they made I thought made them better. I don't think

1466
01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:06,800
Speaker 3: the changes that Boston may made Boston better. I thought

1467
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:08,440
Speaker 3: they just kept Boston kind of afloat.

1468
01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:10,520
Speaker 1: Well, I think they didn't make them better.

1469
01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:12,240
Speaker 2: I think when you look at when you look at

1470
01:03:12,240 --> 01:03:15,680
Speaker 2: the absence of Christas Orginkas right now, dal Horford is

Speaker 2: two years older than you, is older than you. Yeah,

1473
01:03:24,320 --> 01:03:27,400

01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:29,360
Speaker 2: out there trying his best, but it's it's it's a

1475
01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:32,960
Speaker 2: tough it's a tough look sometimes with Al Horford out there.

1476
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:34,000

Speaker 3: out by big Beang Zang. Goodness good it was. It

1547
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:04,880
Speaker 3: was biblical Martin. I've been telling people for so long

1548
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:08,080
Speaker 3: this dude is not a boy. He's a one punch guy.

1549
01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:12,560
Speaker 2: That's it. Man. And since Tyson Fury Floyd is ass

1550
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:13,320
Speaker 2: he didn't.

1551
01:07:13,520 --> 01:07:17,200
Speaker 3: Man, you talk about a fall from Grayson boxing, I

1552
01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:19,320
Speaker 3: don't know if I've seen one, man. And because he's

1553
01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:21,440
Speaker 3: still kind of in his prime right when you consider

1554
01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:24,520
Speaker 3: Wilders still prime or kind of like on the top,

1555
01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:26,880
Speaker 3: you know, kind of coming off the top towards the

1556
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:27,760
Speaker 3: back end of the prime.

1557
01:07:28,200 --> 01:07:30,520
Speaker 2: Sure, if he's on the Culver City stairs, he's on

1558
01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:32,520
Speaker 2: the third that the third section.

1559
01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:36,360
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, yeah, yeah, that's just somebody tweeted it towards

1560
01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:39,680

01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:46,000
Speaker 3: Zaying put Wilder to sleep faster than Martin are at

1563
01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:48,640
Speaker 3: Martin Wise, big vanilla fuddy trying to square up and go.

1564
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:50,480
Speaker 1: So what do you say?

1565
01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:52,960
Speaker 2: He became life for Deontay ever since he came out

1566
01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:54,280
Speaker 2: with that, with that get up.

1567
01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:56,560
Speaker 1: Before that, you know, he had that big hit.

1568
01:07:56,480 --> 01:07:58,880
Speaker 3: On all that stuff. Oh the big, the big. They

1569
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:02,720
Speaker 3: was cast him like forty thousand dollars. He paid for that, Yeah,

1570
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:03,320
Speaker 3: in an ass whip.

1571
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:03,360
Speaker 5: No.

1572
01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:05,880
Speaker 3: I thought it would get downhill from the one press

1573
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:09,919
Speaker 3: conference where he's kind of being, uh, what's the word

1574
01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:11,960
Speaker 3: I'm looking for you, you know, the one that everybody's

1575
01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:15,160
Speaker 3: made means about. He's talking about his heritage and talking

1576
01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:17,479
Speaker 3: about I thought I thought he was going a little

1577
01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:20,519
Speaker 3: over the edge with the reporter and it looked threatening

1578
01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:22,240
Speaker 3: to me, like if I was that guy would have

1579
01:08:22,280 --> 01:08:23,800
Speaker 3: been like, dude, back up, man, Like you don't need

1580
01:08:23,840 --> 01:08:25,960
Speaker 3: to get closer, you don't need to get all mean

1581
01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:28,200
Speaker 3: faced and all all the you know, demonstrative to me.

1582
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:30,679
Speaker 1: I'm just asking you. Of course I thought it started

1583
01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:33,400
Speaker 1: to go down at that point. Absolutely so.

1584
01:08:33,680 --> 01:08:37,840
Speaker 2: But let's transmission now to basketball. Back to basketball, uh,

1585
01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:40,200
Speaker 2: because VJ, I don't know what's going on you. We're

1586
01:08:40,280 --> 01:08:42,479
Speaker 2: in Los Angeles ninety eight percent of the time. We

1587
01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:45,240
Speaker 2: talk at least once a week on the radio. I

1588
01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:47,560
Speaker 2: don't know how we're not candidates for the Lakers co

1589
01:08:47,720 --> 01:08:50,280
Speaker 2: coaching job at this point, but it seems as if

1590
01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:55,400
Speaker 2: it's JJ Reddick's job to lose, which is wow, wild

1591
01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:59,599
Speaker 2: concept to me, terrible, It's just ridiculous. But it's interesting

1592
01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:03,080
Speaker 2: because you can tell how other teams feel about things,

1593
01:09:03,800 --> 01:09:06,439
Speaker 2: or how other teams view what teams are doing. Right,

1594
01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:11,040
Speaker 2: like the Pelicans deciding that they want to defer the

1595
01:09:11,160 --> 01:09:14,840
Speaker 2: first round pick. They could have taken the seventeenth pick

1596
01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:18,479
Speaker 2: this year, they decided to defer till next year, right

1597
01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:20,880
Speaker 2: till twenty twenty five. And some people look at it

1598
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:23,200
Speaker 2: like this draft stinks, blase blah. Well, the last time

1599
01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:25,360
Speaker 2: I heard the draft stinks Rudy Gobert was the twenty

1600
01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:28,120
Speaker 2: seventh pick, and Giannis Antonokoopo was the fifteenth pick. You

1601
01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:31,240
Speaker 2: got what four defensive Players of the year and Giannis

1602
01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:34,040
Speaker 2: who was a Finals MVP in that draft. And just

1603
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:37,439
Speaker 2: last year, just last week, we saw Ben Sheppard playing

1604
01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:39,439
Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conference finals. Right, he was a twenty

1605
01:09:39,479 --> 01:09:41,640
Speaker 2: sixth pick in the draft. Right, there are guys who

1606
01:09:41,720 --> 01:09:44,360
Speaker 2: can play in every draft. Now, maybe your number one,

1607
01:09:44,439 --> 01:09:47,240
Speaker 2: two three guys are not necessarily what you're looking for,

1608
01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:49,599
Speaker 2: quote unquote, but there'll be guys that can play.

1609
01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:51,360
Speaker 1: At seventeen, you can get a guy who can play.

1610
01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:53,040
Speaker 1: But the Pelicans said, you know what.

1611
01:09:53,160 --> 01:09:56,080
Speaker 2: We'd rather not we're picking twenty first anyway, we'd rather

1612
01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:59,000
Speaker 2: not kick us to the twenty twenty five draft. Well,

1613
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:04,160
Speaker 2: we have a unprotected first round pick. That is a

1614
01:10:04,360 --> 01:10:06,920
Speaker 2: clear message to the Lakers. They say, you know what,

1615
01:10:07,040 --> 01:10:09,040
Speaker 2: to borrow phrase from my my co host, a big

1616
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:11,280
Speaker 2: Vanilla funny, the Pelicans are tone the Lakers.

1617
01:10:11,479 --> 01:10:14,000
Speaker 1: We think you about to be some sauce. Some sauce,

1618
01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:15,679
Speaker 1: y'all are, They're all about to be some salts.

1619
01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:15,800
Speaker 4: Here.

1620
01:10:15,880 --> 01:10:20,720
Speaker 3: Here's my here's my thing with this whole Laker coaching seventeenth,

1621
01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:23,160
Speaker 3: pick the whole thing, and and and and Patrick, you're

1622
01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:25,080
Speaker 3: you're a Laker fan, man, jump in here if you

1623
01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:27,519
Speaker 3: want to on this one, please, I'm just trying to

1624
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:29,280
Speaker 3: figure out And you know what, No, I'm not even

1625
01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:30,760
Speaker 3: gonna go that round. I'm gonna just go right at

1626
01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:33,320
Speaker 3: it like I normally do. This is Lebron pulling the strings.

1627
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:36,160
Speaker 3: This is this is Lebron, This is this is Jeanie.

1628
01:10:37,240 --> 01:10:41,080
Speaker 3: This is Genie being starstruck. Bill Pulashki, who I probably

1629
01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:42,880
Speaker 3: think I think we all all agreet that he's the

1630
01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:45,560
Speaker 3: number one UH sports guy for the LA Times. It

1631
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:47,080
Speaker 3: would be Pulashki. I think he's the guy that's been

1632
01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:49,719
Speaker 3: there the long is that he got on the radio

1633
01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:53,719
Speaker 3: tour one day and just tour Jenie and and Lebron

1634
01:10:53,960 --> 01:10:56,160
Speaker 3: a new one. And he said that this is now,

1635
01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:58,639
Speaker 3: we're in the off season to quote him his words,

1636
01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:01,720
Speaker 3: we're in the off season of his Lebron's ass and

1637
01:11:01,840 --> 01:11:04,960
Speaker 3: the Genie is too starstrucked and that she didn't learn

1638
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:07,280
Speaker 3: from her dad that you can't be too starstruck.

1639
01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:11,639
Speaker 1: You have to run an organization. You gotta run a franchise. Period.

1640
01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:15,240
Speaker 3: He's forty's it's and then you're talking about Bronni and

1641
01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:19,960
Speaker 3: Brownie canceling ten other workouts just to do Phoenix and

1642
01:11:20,080 --> 01:11:20,559
Speaker 3: the Lakers.

1643
01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:22,840
Speaker 2: And now you're saying it with the seventeenth pick, like

1644
01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:24,080
Speaker 2: what do you do?

1645
01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:26,920
Speaker 3: And I'm with you, mar And before you go, Patrick,

1646
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:29,439
Speaker 3: I'm with you markin this idea that this draft is

1647
01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:32,519
Speaker 3: so bad. We don't know what any draft is until

1648
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:35,080
Speaker 3: the draft plays out years.

1649
01:11:35,000 --> 01:11:37,639
Speaker 2: Down the line. We don't know what did draft.

1650
01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:40,880
Speaker 3: You think you think Dallas made the right decision making

1651
01:11:40,960 --> 01:11:44,000
Speaker 3: that trade for Luca. Remember Dallas didn't draft Luca, They

1652
01:11:44,160 --> 01:11:48,000
Speaker 3: drafted Trey Young and then they swap. You think Atlanta

1653
01:11:48,200 --> 01:11:51,120
Speaker 3: and Atlanta's about to lose Tray Young. You think Atlanta

1654
01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:54,280
Speaker 3: would and redo that? Do you except they would? Trust

1655
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:57,599
Speaker 3: me they would. So when you really look at this draft, Martin,

1656
01:11:57,720 --> 01:11:59,599
Speaker 3: we don't like you said, man, you can find guys

1657
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:00,280
Speaker 3: at a team.

1658
01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:03,320
Speaker 2: Where was Joker in the second round? Where was dray

1659
01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:05,080
Speaker 2: Bonn in the middle of a Taco Bell commercial?

1660
01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:08,600
Speaker 3: Pretty right right? Draymond Green second run? Now you know

1661
01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:10,560
Speaker 3: we had our piece about Draymond earlier. But let's not

1662
01:12:10,800 --> 01:12:13,040
Speaker 3: get it twisted that the Warriors don't win four championships

1663
01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:13,760
Speaker 3: without Draymond Green.

1664
01:12:13,800 --> 01:12:16,120
Speaker 2: Okay, but I think that the point too about Draymond

1665
01:12:16,280 --> 01:12:17,599
Speaker 2: is I don't know if he would have had as

1666
01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:20,440
Speaker 2: good a career he had anywhere else, but the Warriors.

1667
01:12:20,120 --> 01:12:22,439
Speaker 1: Found something that fit what they wanted to. Absolutely know,

1668
01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:23,040
Speaker 1: you're right about that.

1669
01:12:23,080 --> 01:12:26,080
Speaker 2: He would never been miss Draymond if he got drafted

1670
01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:29,080
Speaker 2: by the Pistons or if he got drafted by the Magic.

1671
01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:32,240
Speaker 3: No, he got to the right A lot about being drafted.

1672
01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:34,439
Speaker 3: It's like we say about quarterback, right, A lot of

1673
01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:37,879
Speaker 3: it is where you go for years. You go to Cleveland,

1674
01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:41,000
Speaker 3: you're done for you. You go to clet you're done baseball,

1675
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:43,080
Speaker 3: you're a hot prospect. You go to the Royals for

1676
01:12:43,200 --> 01:12:46,080
Speaker 3: the last twenty five years. Dude, with nobody knows where

1677
01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:48,920
Speaker 3: you are. Nobody's watching your games, nobody knows that you're there.

1678
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:52,479
Speaker 3: So I'm with you, Mary, We have no idea. Patrick,

1679
01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 3: this is your account, bro, this is your account.

1680
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:55,320
Speaker 2: Man.

1681
01:12:55,439 --> 01:12:58,519
Speaker 4: What the hell is going on with the Lakers? I mean,

1682
01:12:59,760 --> 01:13:02,000
Speaker 4: I mean, listen, it's not just this one year, this

1683
01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:05,240
Speaker 4: past offseason. It's just it's just been the regime the

1684
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:07,640
Speaker 4: last one four or five, just some odd year. It's

1685
01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:09,640
Speaker 4: just more of the same. It's just now it's just

1686
01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:12,120
Speaker 4: rearing its ugly head yet again. And it's just from

1687
01:13:12,160 --> 01:13:15,840
Speaker 4: an organizational standing like the Lakers, it's like it's like

1688
01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,640
Speaker 4: it's it's more than just like they're giving in the

1689
01:13:18,760 --> 01:13:21,160
Speaker 4: Lebron or it's Lebron's. It's just it's them as a

1690
01:13:21,240 --> 01:13:23,960
Speaker 4: foundation of we're going to get you know, build a

1691
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:26,960
Speaker 4: super team or the three Stars. They're so caught up

1692
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:29,600
Speaker 4: in the old school ways of how things were successful

1693
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:33,200
Speaker 4: and just ways of appeasing things that they're not sticking

1694
01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:36,080
Speaker 4: with the times. And Genie doesn't have any real in

1695
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:39,720
Speaker 4: my opinion, doesn't have any real basketball people in the organization,

1696
01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 4: like like even Polinka, like Plinka's Kobe's agent and now GM.

1697
01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:47,519
Speaker 4: I don't think Blinka's overly that great of a GM.

1698
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:49,439
Speaker 1: It's well, you know, Pat, he won a title.

1699
01:13:49,520 --> 01:13:51,600
Speaker 2: Linn decided, you know, what's no use for any of

1700
01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:54,679
Speaker 2: you anymore sports studio. Yeah, but that was that Polinka,

1701
01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:57,439
Speaker 2: though Martin, I think it was. I think he's got

1702
01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:01,200
Speaker 2: autonomy in that position because like Patrick was just saying, yeah,

1703
01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:02,519
Speaker 2: he's plugged in with Jeanie.

1704
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:04,320
Speaker 1: You remember Magic Johnson leaving.

1705
01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:06,559
Speaker 2: It wasn't because of Lebron or whatever it was because

1706
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:09,080
Speaker 2: of Rob Polenka, like he was explicit about it.

1707
01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:12,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, well with the Magic thing and that, and I

1708
01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:14,280
Speaker 3: think you and I both heard some of the rumblings,

1709
01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:16,000
Speaker 3: like we said, we're out here in La that.

1710
01:14:16,720 --> 01:14:18,360
Speaker 1: But when you when you have.

1711
01:14:18,479 --> 01:14:20,920
Speaker 3: Lebron, there's got to be people to be blamed. And

1712
01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:24,000
Speaker 3: let's not act like, let's not act like Magic wasn't

1713
01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:26,920
Speaker 3: part of the blame when they weren't being successful and

1714
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:31,080
Speaker 3: it was affecting some of Magic's other business happenings going on,

1715
01:14:31,240 --> 01:14:34,160
Speaker 3: and Magic's like, look, I got the Dodgers, I got

1716
01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:36,519
Speaker 3: I got five rings in this building. We're not this building,

1717
01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:39,160
Speaker 3: but I got five rings in this uniform. I'm a

1718
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:41,080
Speaker 3: Magic quit in the middle of the day he was

1719
01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:43,200
Speaker 3: supposed to be going to a meeting and he said,

1720
01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:47,160
Speaker 3: I ain't gonna be ain't I ain't gonna be there, Martin.

1721
01:14:47,640 --> 01:14:50,320
Speaker 3: Do you take Bronnie at seventeen? Put it on the

1722
01:14:50,360 --> 01:14:51,000
Speaker 3: table right now?

1723
01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:55,800
Speaker 2: Martin? Absolutely not. Will they that they should not? Will

1724
01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:58,479
Speaker 2: they put it on the table?

1725
01:14:58,840 --> 01:15:02,000
Speaker 4: Patrick, I got you seven table seventeen. Do the Lakers

1726
01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:03,600
Speaker 4: take Brownie James, Absolutely not.

1727
01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:04,439
Speaker 1: They will not.

1728
01:15:04,680 --> 01:15:08,200
Speaker 4: They're gonna actually, honestly, where they take Brownie James as

1729
01:15:08,280 --> 01:15:10,639
Speaker 4: early as fifty five in the second round just because

1730
01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:12,960
Speaker 4: they might do it, or he's going undrafted. I think

1731
01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:15,679
Speaker 4: it's all just smoking mirrors because I think they're looking

1732
01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:18,720
Speaker 4: at other guys. Brownie will be a Laker just in

1733
01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:21,559
Speaker 4: second round or undrafted. I'm going on the other side.

1734
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:24,280
Speaker 3: I'm going on the other side to prove my point

1735
01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:26,960
Speaker 3: that Lebron is running the franchise. And but you think

1736
01:15:27,080 --> 01:15:31,000
Speaker 3: Lebron wants his kid to be drafted fifty something over seventeenth, I.

1737
01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:32,759
Speaker 2: Think he wants his kid to be drafted in general.

1738
01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:34,439
Speaker 2: But I will say this, I do think he will

1739
01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:36,960
Speaker 2: be drafted because I don't think. I don't see a

1740
01:15:37,080 --> 01:15:40,720
Speaker 2: world where Rich Paul plays this game in this way,

1741
01:15:40,960 --> 01:15:42,479
Speaker 2: like I don't see he doesn't make sense to me.

1742
01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:45,960
Speaker 2: I think he'll be drafted for sure because he's still

1743
01:15:46,040 --> 01:15:48,760
Speaker 2: in the draft, which is something that's crazy. But coming

1744
01:15:48,840 --> 01:15:51,000
Speaker 2: up next, you just heard his voice a second ago,

1745

01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:34,639
Speaker 3: is I saw that a certain receiver wants a new

1933
01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:35,000
Speaker 1: Of all, I'm not going to OTAs anyway. Now.

Speaker 2: Yeah.

1939
01:24:48,840 --> 01:24:50,960
Speaker 3: Absolutely, But this is the business and this is what

1940
01:24:51,080 --> 01:24:52,840
Speaker 3: the NFL is. That's I'm not gonna do. I'm not

1941
01:24:52,880 --> 01:24:55,559
Speaker 3: gonna I'm not gonna balk against it because I've defended

1942
01:24:55,880 --> 01:24:59,200
Speaker 3: when they say, oh, this quarterback does it, dude, the

1943
01:24:59,360 --> 01:25:01,240
Speaker 3: next guy gets the next deal.

1944
01:25:01,520 --> 01:25:03,200
Speaker 1: That's the way it's always been.

1945
01:25:03,479 --> 01:25:05,240
Speaker 3: Matt Ryan didn't win the damn thing when he was

1946
01:25:05,280 --> 01:25:07,639
Speaker 3: the highest paid quarterback in the NFL. At one point,

1947
01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:09,840
Speaker 3: Michael Vick was the highest paid quarterback in the I

1948
01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:11,800
Speaker 3: don't want to hear about what you want. That's not

1949
01:25:11,920 --> 01:25:16,040
Speaker 3: how the NFL deals work because it's not all guaranteed money.

1950
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:19,559
Speaker 3: You gotta get your money. It's next man up. CD lamb,

1951
01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:21,479
Speaker 3: he had one good year. Y'all know how I feel

1952
01:25:21,479 --> 01:25:24,200
Speaker 3: about CD. He now has cracked my top ten and

1953
01:25:24,280 --> 01:25:26,280
Speaker 3: to begin it balling less Jesus bro.

1954
01:25:26,520 --> 01:25:27,760
Speaker 1: I said, he cracked my top ten.

1955
01:25:27,840 --> 01:25:29,599
Speaker 3: What do you guys want me to do? Bow down

1956
01:25:29,640 --> 01:25:32,479
Speaker 3: and his feet. No, he cracked my top ten. Remember

1957
01:25:32,760 --> 01:25:35,799
Speaker 3: last year, me, you Bo and any and even Brandon

1958
01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:37,680
Speaker 3: were like, heyj he's not your well can you name

1959
01:25:37,720 --> 01:25:39,599
Speaker 3: And I named ten receivers I thought were better him,

1960
01:25:39,600 --> 01:25:41,800
Speaker 3: but he showed me this year. Okay, bro, you're a

1961
01:25:41,880 --> 01:25:44,080
Speaker 3: top ten guy, but I hold off another year for you.

1962
01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:46,560
Speaker 3: Think you get a deal just aful one year. But

1963
01:25:46,720 --> 01:25:51,040
Speaker 3: if I'm Justin Jefferson, I'm like, hey, hold the phone here, Okay,

1964
01:25:51,160 --> 01:25:51,760
Speaker 3: I'm up next.

1965
01:25:51,840 --> 01:25:54,040
Speaker 1: Then let's let's go. I'm up next.

1966
01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:56,519
Speaker 2: So I think all three of those guys should have

1967
01:25:56,640 --> 01:25:59,479
Speaker 2: the feeling of I'm up next. Now, Justin Jefferson probably

1968
01:25:59,479 --> 01:26:01,280
Speaker 2: should be the I is paying out of all of them.

1969
01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:04,280
Speaker 1: But with all three of those guys should feel like

1970
01:26:04,360 --> 01:26:04,960
Speaker 1: I'm up next.

1971
01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:09,120
Speaker 3: Even Chase, hell yeah, he gets hurt too much for me.

1972
01:26:09,200 --> 01:26:11,439
Speaker 3: Though Martin, he does miss two or three games, he

1973
01:26:11,560 --> 01:26:13,000
Speaker 3: gets hurt a little too much for me.

1974
01:26:13,040 --> 01:26:13,760
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna tell you this.

1975
01:26:14,520 --> 01:26:16,639
Speaker 3: With these gms, now see, we're looking at this from

1976
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:20,800
Speaker 3: a player fan, you know, supports talk radio hosts standpoint.

1977
01:26:21,000 --> 01:26:23,560
Speaker 3: If we were GMS Martin, trust mean, we would be

1978
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:25,000
Speaker 3: looking like, hey, bro, you miss time.

1979
01:26:25,360 --> 01:26:27,880
Speaker 2: Gm is look at that dog. It could be four games, three, It.

1980
01:26:27,920 --> 01:26:31,120
Speaker 3: Doesn't matter your The best ability is availability. You gotta

1981
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:33,840
Speaker 3: be on the field, and when you're missing time, or

1982
01:26:34,160 --> 01:26:36,640
Speaker 3: when that contract's coming up, and that ankle hurts a

1983
01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:40,439
Speaker 3: little more, that hamstring or that growing hurts a little more,

1984
01:26:40,479 --> 01:26:42,599
Speaker 3: because you don't want to go out and hurt yourself

1985
01:26:42,760 --> 01:26:45,040
Speaker 3: rightfull li So, But they got a side they gotta

1986
01:26:45,120 --> 01:26:47,280
Speaker 3: stand on. The players got aside they gotta stand on.

1987
01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:49,200

01:26:49,240 --> 01:26:51,280
Speaker 3: phones away, put the social media away, get into a room,

1989

1991
01:26:56,280 --> 01:26:59,559
Speaker 3: out to where we could come to a good agreement

1992
01:26:59,800 --> 01:27:00,439
Speaker 3: move forward.

1993
01:27:00,960 --> 01:27:02,960
Speaker 1: See you say that if I was a GM, I

1994
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:04,719
Speaker 1: would take guys like Justin Jefferson.

1995
01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:08,840
Speaker 2: I'm not letting contracts if Look the only way I'm

1996
01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:11,679
Speaker 2: letting contracts get to their last year is if it's

1997
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:15,360
Speaker 2: truly somebody that I'm not sure about. We knew that

1998
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:19,240
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson was the goods year one in the NFL.

1999
01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:21,920
Speaker 2: That means at the end of year two, if you

2000
01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:24,320
Speaker 2: have anohing like that, you're one. Let's sit down and

2001
01:27:24,360 --> 01:27:26,479
Speaker 2: get this done. Let's sit down again. Let's I want

2002
01:27:26,479 --> 01:27:28,120
Speaker 2: you to be a bangle for the next six years.

2003
01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:30,519
Speaker 2: How do we even figure this out, let's give you

2004
01:27:30,640 --> 01:27:33,479
Speaker 2: some contract. And you know who did it first, and

2005
01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:35,960
Speaker 2: it didn't necessarily work out for them in a way

2006
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:37,479
Speaker 2: that won a Super Bowl or whatever.

2007
01:27:37,920 --> 01:27:39,480
Speaker 1: But they did that with Derek.

2008
01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:42,960
Speaker 2: Carr in Oakland back back when it was Oakland. They

2009
01:27:43,080 --> 01:27:45,800
Speaker 2: sat down with him well before his rookie contract was

2010
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:49,479
Speaker 2: gonna be was going to expire and got him a

2011
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:52,080
Speaker 2: long term extension. You know what you had, for better

2012
01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:54,800
Speaker 2: or for worse, continuity at quarterback.

2013
01:27:54,439 --> 01:27:57,000
Speaker 1: For ten years. Yeah, you know, like you and you

2014
01:27:57,080 --> 01:27:59,000
Speaker 1: know what he You swing and miss on some of those.

2015
01:27:59,080 --> 01:27:59,840
Speaker 1: You swing and miss with some.

2016
01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:04,080
Speaker 2: But there's no chance I would let Justin Jefferson hit

2017
01:28:05,000 --> 01:28:06,800
Speaker 2: even come close to the last year of his deal,

2018
01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:07,960
Speaker 2: because this is what happens.

2019
01:28:08,320 --> 01:28:09,799
Speaker 1: You could have now Justin Jefferson.

2020
01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:14,240
Speaker 2: Jeremy Folloler on ESPN reported he might not only be

2021
01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:17,800
Speaker 2: the highest paid receiver, but the highest paid non quarterback,

2022
01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:21,479
Speaker 2: Nick Bosa makes thirty four million a year. Now, You'll

2023
01:28:21,560 --> 01:28:25,080
Speaker 2: remember I just said the highest paid receiver right now

2024
01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:27,639
Speaker 2: is aj Brown at thirty two million a year.

2025
01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:30,559
Speaker 1: So right there, right, if you make.

2026
01:28:30,520 --> 01:28:32,639
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson at thirty five, guess what, he's the highest

2027
01:28:32,640 --> 01:28:35,080
Speaker 2: paid player that's not a quarterback in the NFL, probably

2028
01:28:35,120 --> 01:28:36,920
Speaker 2: making more than a few quarterbacks in the NFL.

2029
01:28:36,920 --> 01:28:39,640
Speaker 1: And I think about it, So would you never let

2030
01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:41,000
Speaker 1: that deal get to that point?

2031
01:28:41,200 --> 01:28:41,240
Speaker 7: No?

2032
01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:42,800
Speaker 1: Because see that's the thing. You could have done this.

2033
01:28:43,040 --> 01:28:45,360
Speaker 2: You could have finished this for twenty seven million, twenty

2034
01:28:45,439 --> 01:28:47,120
Speaker 2: six million two years ago.

2035
01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:49,080
Speaker 1: And at the time it was like, oh my god,

2036
01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:51,120
Speaker 1: you're gonna do that. But now look now, look at

2037
01:28:51,160 --> 01:28:52,599
Speaker 1: the price of the brick keeps going up.

2038
01:28:53,320 --> 01:28:56,040
Speaker 3: N I'm with you, man, I don't think I give

2039
01:28:56,200 --> 01:29:00,720
Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson thirty five million. I just and I now back,

2040
01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:02,439
Speaker 3: let me rewind a little bit back to your point

2041
01:29:02,520 --> 01:29:05,400
Speaker 3: of you wouldn't let it get this far. That's actually

2042
01:29:05,520 --> 01:29:08,640
Speaker 3: a really good idea. But we also know there's so

2043
01:29:08,760 --> 01:29:12,880
Speaker 3: many other things, Martin that happens with other people's contracts.

2044
01:29:13,240 --> 01:29:17,439
Speaker 3: You can't just do everybody the same when you want to,

2045
01:29:17,560 --> 01:29:19,280
Speaker 3: because there's other guys that get to get read. I

2046
01:29:19,400 --> 01:29:22,080
Speaker 3: remember they were going in the contract stuff with Hunter,

2047
01:29:22,320 --> 01:29:25,479
Speaker 3: they were having contract stuff with Kirk Cousins. Were there

2048
01:29:25,479 --> 01:29:28,880
Speaker 3: were other guy David Cook. We knew Cook, we knew

2049
01:29:28,960 --> 01:29:30,000
Speaker 3: Cook was coming up right.

2050
01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:32,120
Speaker 2: So thin part of the reason why those guys aren't

2051
01:29:32,200 --> 01:29:34,120
Speaker 2: Vikings anymore is because of this contract.

2052
01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:37,120
Speaker 1: Ye sure, yeah, right, but that's what I'm saying. But

2053
01:29:37,240 --> 01:29:37,960
Speaker 1: they didn't know that.

2054
01:29:38,600 --> 01:29:42,080
Speaker 3: That's hard to see two years ago. Maybe last year,

2055
01:29:42,080 --> 01:29:44,800
Speaker 3: I'll give you that. But then also he missed time too,

2056
01:29:44,880 --> 01:29:46,240
Speaker 3: and there was supposed to be a game or two

2057
01:29:46,560 --> 01:29:48,479
Speaker 3: ended up being like four or five games he was out.

2058
01:29:48,560 --> 01:29:50,960
Speaker 3: And I'm telling you as a GM, as a gym,

2059
01:29:51,080 --> 01:29:52,680
Speaker 3: is easy to saying, go no, if I'm a gym,

2060
01:29:52,720 --> 01:29:55,040
Speaker 3: I do it this way. Yeah, until you're sitting in

2061
01:29:55,160 --> 01:29:59,160
Speaker 3: that office and you have fifty three salaries that you

2062
01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:02,200
Speaker 3: have to make, and you know, like I said, this

2063
01:30:02,360 --> 01:30:06,040
Speaker 3: is just the way business goes in the in the NFL,

2064
01:30:06,240 --> 01:30:09,040
Speaker 3: I don't know about thirty five million.

2065
01:30:09,720 --> 01:30:11,640
Speaker 1: I don't even know how A. J. Brown, he's the

2066
01:30:11,680 --> 01:30:12,599
Speaker 1: highest paid receiver.

2067
01:30:12,400 --> 01:30:14,600
Speaker 3: In league went so how he acted right once he

2068
01:30:14,720 --> 01:30:17,040
Speaker 3: got his money, he kind of things kind of changed.

2069
01:30:17,080 --> 01:30:18,519
Speaker 3: He didn't have the year he had his first year

2070
01:30:18,560 --> 01:30:20,519
Speaker 3: in Philly, and then when kind of m I A

2071
01:30:20,600 --> 01:30:22,080
Speaker 3: and then there was a bunch off the field stuff

2072
01:30:22,080 --> 01:30:22,280
Speaker 3: going on.

2073
01:30:22,439 --> 01:30:24,439
Speaker 1: So I think that's what happens with receivers.

2074
01:30:24,680 --> 01:30:26,200
Speaker 3: They they're such a dal and I don't think Justin

2075
01:30:26,280 --> 01:30:27,880
Speaker 3: Jefferson is a dev I'm not saying that about him.

2076
01:30:27,880 --> 01:30:29,880
Speaker 3: I think he is a level headed young man who

2077
01:30:29,960 --> 01:30:33,280
Speaker 3: is a great NFL player. But GM's look at it differently.

2078
01:30:33,400 --> 01:30:37,120
Speaker 3: GM's have to kind of see it differently. WHOA, we'll

2079
01:30:37,160 --> 01:30:38,680
Speaker 3: see what's up with this guy. I think the deal

2080
01:30:38,760 --> 01:30:41,640
Speaker 3: gets done. I don't think he's gonna get traded. You

2081
01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:45,560
Speaker 3: don't trade, you don't. You don't give away JJ McCarthy's

2082
01:30:45,640 --> 01:30:48,800
Speaker 3: best weapon going into his Rooki year. Now, I will

2083
01:30:48,880 --> 01:30:52,680
Speaker 3: say this, they added pieces at the receiver position. If

2084
01:30:52,840 --> 01:30:57,200
Speaker 3: they think in Phil Martin that Addison can be the

2085
01:30:57,320 --> 01:31:00,240
Speaker 3: guy you do as a GM in front off have

2086
01:31:00,320 --> 01:31:02,519
Speaker 3: to look and go, hey, we think we got a

2087
01:31:02,600 --> 01:31:05,840
Speaker 3: guy that can do what you do and we can

2088
01:31:05,920 --> 01:31:08,840
Speaker 3: put that other money other places to help it. Because

2089
01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:11,840
Speaker 3: we've had you right, best receiver in football last three years?

2090
01:31:12,120 --> 01:31:13,000
Speaker 1: What is that done for us?

2091
01:31:13,080 --> 01:31:15,200
Speaker 3: What we've been I said the same thing about Christian

2092
01:31:15,200 --> 01:31:17,840
Speaker 3: Wilkins with the Dolphins. The Dolphins offered him twice. When

2093
01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:19,920
Speaker 3: people like you, guys love Christian Wilkins, get away.

2094
01:31:20,000 --> 01:31:20,720
Speaker 1: Know the hell we did it.

2095
01:31:20,960 --> 01:31:23,320
Speaker 3: We put two deals on the table, his agent told

2096
01:31:23,360 --> 01:31:25,160
Speaker 3: him not to sign them, and then we look at

2097
01:31:25,200 --> 01:31:27,320
Speaker 3: it and go, well, we got Ziggler. We got some

2098
01:31:27,439 --> 01:31:29,800
Speaker 3: other guys that we feel like, bro can fill your

2099
01:31:29,880 --> 01:31:32,960
Speaker 3: spot that are cheaper. Hey, go get your eighty million

2100
01:31:32,960 --> 01:31:35,599
Speaker 3: guaranteed dollars for the Raiders. Thank you, No hard feelings,

2101
01:31:35,760 --> 01:31:37,680
Speaker 3: it's business. We'll see you down the road when you

2102
01:31:37,720 --> 01:31:39,519
Speaker 3: guys got to come back here and play Miami this year.

2103
01:31:39,800 --> 01:31:41,960
Speaker 3: So that's where I kind of stand with the Jefferson deal.

2104
01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:44,200
Speaker 3: He's not going anywhere. I think it'll get done, Martin.

2105
01:31:44,640 --> 01:31:45,759
Speaker 1: I tell you this, if.

2106
01:31:47,120 --> 01:31:52,679
Speaker 2: Quesy Adolfo mensa thinks that that's as a Vikings general.

2107
01:31:52,479 --> 01:31:55,840
Speaker 1: Man, I'm just impressed that you pulled that. Did you

2108
01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:56,400
Speaker 1: practice that?

2109
01:31:57,000 --> 01:32:00,160
Speaker 2: No, that was off the top, I mean I was,

2110
01:32:00,360 --> 01:32:02,719
Speaker 2: I just knew it. But it's just a tough you know, wow,

2111
01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:05,640
Speaker 2: that is It's a lot going on. It looked like

2112
01:32:05,680 --> 01:32:07,439
Speaker 2: when you read it you had your finger on the

2113
01:32:07,520 --> 01:32:11,400
Speaker 2: paper going along. You had your INDIANX finger on the

2114
01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:14,200
Speaker 2: paper going along the syllables to get that one.

2115
01:32:14,240 --> 01:32:15,000
Speaker 1: I know, great job.

2116
01:32:15,040 --> 01:32:17,320
Speaker 4: It's I know, I knew how to pronounce his name.

2117
01:32:17,360 --> 01:32:19,120
Speaker 4: But I'm also a Viking fan though, too, so I

2118
01:32:19,200 --> 01:32:22,720
Speaker 4: say the game, Martin, go ahead, Patty, I got you,

2119
01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:24,799
Speaker 4: I got you. It's Kouwessey adopo mensa.

2120
01:32:25,320 --> 01:32:27,080
Speaker 1: Wow, I'll say this, God bless you.

2121
01:32:29,960 --> 01:32:32,880
Speaker 2: Tite that if he thinks that Jordan Addison is going

2122
01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:35,200
Speaker 2: to be able to provide what Justin Jefferson provides on

2123
01:32:35,240 --> 01:32:38,240
Speaker 2: a football field, you have another thing coming like why

2124
01:32:38,320 --> 01:32:39,400
Speaker 2: not do why?

2125
01:32:39,479 --> 01:32:40,160
Speaker 1: What do you mean why not?

2126
01:32:40,360 --> 01:32:43,120
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson is a stud Like Justin Jefferson is proven

2127
01:32:43,160 --> 01:32:46,320
Speaker 2: at this point, Justseph Jefferson has won the Vikings game.

2128
01:32:46,360 --> 01:32:49,800
Speaker 2: Do you remember that, uh that Bill's that that buffle

2129
01:32:49,880 --> 01:32:52,000
Speaker 2: ball game where he Kirk Cousins tried his best to

2130
01:32:52,080 --> 01:32:54,719
Speaker 2: throw the ball for the offensive coordinator in the booth

2131
01:32:54,840 --> 01:32:56,519
Speaker 2: forth Justin Jefferson would up and got.

2132
01:32:56,439 --> 01:32:59,240
Speaker 1: It fourth and fifty five. It seemed like it was

2133
01:32:59,320 --> 01:32:59,599
Speaker 1: that far.

2134
01:32:59,720 --> 01:33:03,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, coming out of college, I would I would put

2135
01:33:03,320 --> 01:33:07,320
Speaker 3: Addison on the same level as Justin Jefferson company. Remember

2136
01:33:07,400 --> 01:33:10,240
Speaker 3: Addison's the the caugh winner when he was at PIT

2137
01:33:10,360 --> 01:33:13,479
Speaker 3: before he transferred to the USC. I listen, we know

2138
01:33:13,560 --> 01:33:15,200
Speaker 3: what Justin Jefferson's done over the last like I said,

2139
01:33:15,200 --> 01:33:16,479
Speaker 3: two three, So I'm not trying to take that away

2140
01:33:16,520 --> 01:33:18,840
Speaker 3: from him. But on the business side, Martin, if you

2141
01:33:19,000 --> 01:33:21,719
Speaker 3: feel like you got a guy that could get close

2142
01:33:21,760 --> 01:33:24,080
Speaker 3: to that, you can allocate some of that money to

2143
01:33:24,320 --> 01:33:27,559
Speaker 3: other places to help your team get to the promised lamb,

2144
01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:29,400
Speaker 3: bro go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, this is your.

2145
01:33:29,360 --> 01:33:31,599
Speaker 4: Account honestly, Like, and I kind of want to chime

2146
01:33:31,640 --> 01:33:34,360
Speaker 4: in with like the whole financial aspect of like with Jefferson,

2147
01:33:34,479 --> 01:33:37,280
Speaker 4: Like he's probably gonna get that thirty five thirty six million,

2148
01:33:37,280 --> 01:33:39,880
Speaker 4: which yeah, yeah, it's a lot, but I think how

2149
01:33:39,920 --> 01:33:42,840
Speaker 4: they're gonna finagle it and kind of like just put there.

2150
01:33:42,960 --> 01:33:45,519
Speaker 4: They're like their little two cents with it is. I

2151
01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:48,000
Speaker 4: think they're going to however long it is, it's gonna

2152
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:50,360
Speaker 4: be front loaded because he's gonna want next to like

2153
01:33:50,720 --> 01:33:53,800
Speaker 4: fully guaranteed like money and all that stuff. Probably that's

2154
01:33:53,800 --> 01:33:56,400
Speaker 4: probably with why it's taken so long. It's they're probably

2155
01:33:56,400 --> 01:33:59,519
Speaker 4: gonna front load his contract. And think of it like this, guys,

2156
01:33:59,600 --> 01:34:03,519
Speaker 4: because there's not a lot of old regime like Minnesota

2157
01:34:03,600 --> 01:34:07,240
Speaker 4: vikings left on that team, like Harrison Smith aging probably

2158
01:34:07,280 --> 01:34:09,240
Speaker 4: on his last years and all that stuff. Yeah, and

2159
01:34:09,400 --> 01:34:11,400
Speaker 4: then like there's a lot of young a lot of

2160
01:34:11,479 --> 01:34:14,080
Speaker 4: young guys on their team. Let's let's look at it

2161
01:34:14,120 --> 01:34:16,200
Speaker 4: from like the major players here that you know are

2162
01:34:16,240 --> 01:34:18,720
Speaker 4: gonna be major money. JJ McCarthy. He's a rookie this year.

2163
01:34:18,960 --> 01:34:21,200
Speaker 4: One's he up you know, five years from now, assuming

2164
01:34:21,240 --> 01:34:24,519
Speaker 4: everything's fine and dandy. Uh, he's cheap quarterback, cheapest like

2165
01:34:24,680 --> 01:34:27,280
Speaker 4: spot is, Like it's a boon to half. Jordan Addison

2166
01:34:27,840 --> 01:34:29,400
Speaker 4: also a guy with a rookie is still on a

2167
01:34:29,479 --> 01:34:31,920
Speaker 4: rookie deal right now. Who else is on a rookie

2168
01:34:31,960 --> 01:34:33,800
Speaker 4: deal that's gonna probably want, like you know, the bank

2169
01:34:34,080 --> 01:34:36,600
Speaker 4: if he's good to Dallas Turner. But then not just that,

2170
01:34:36,720 --> 01:34:38,960
Speaker 4: but they have all these all these young bucks like me,

2171
01:34:39,080 --> 01:34:41,840
Speaker 4: Kai Blackman and like some of these secondary guys, these

2172
01:34:41,920 --> 01:34:44,800
Speaker 4: defensive guys, they're on their rookie deals. So I think

2173
01:34:44,840 --> 01:34:47,400
Speaker 4: what Minnesota is trying to figure out is I think

2174
01:34:47,439 --> 01:34:50,519
Speaker 4: they're gonna try in front load Jefferson's contract, which you

2175
01:34:50,560 --> 01:34:52,200
Speaker 4: know it's gonna be it's gonna be you know, like

2176
01:34:52,360 --> 01:34:54,080
Speaker 4: money's gonna be tight, and they're gonna kind of you know,

2177
01:34:54,200 --> 01:34:56,840
Speaker 4: cap casualty, like veteran guys are gonna go down. They're

2178
01:34:56,840 --> 01:34:59,200
Speaker 4: gonna go a lot younger. But then by the time

2179
01:34:59,800 --> 01:35:02,519
Speaker 4: it's time to pay, like JJ and and some of

2180
01:35:02,560 --> 01:35:06,400
Speaker 4: these other like younger guys, you know, Jefferson's contract is

2181
01:35:06,439 --> 01:35:09,559
Speaker 4: gonna be you know, the cap it's gonna be monstrously low,

2182
01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:12,280
Speaker 4: and they're gonna have you know, their funds allocated almost

2183
01:35:12,320 --> 01:35:14,559
Speaker 4: like avoid years and and all that stuff, Like how

2184
01:35:14,800 --> 01:35:17,040
Speaker 4: do they have this money? Jefferson's like they front loaded

2185
01:35:17,080 --> 01:35:18,040
Speaker 4: it if they could afford it.

2186
01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:19,880
Speaker 2: Yeah. I got bad news for you, though, Pat, if

2187
01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:21,680
Speaker 2: he signs a four year deal, he'd be right back

2188
01:35:21,720 --> 01:35:22,320
Speaker 2: at the table now.

2189
01:35:22,400 --> 01:35:22,880
Speaker 4: I mean fair.

2190
01:35:22,960 --> 01:35:24,960
Speaker 2: I was gonna say me fair, fair, I was gonna

2191
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:27,040
Speaker 2: say that the minute another receiver gets it. Listen, we

2192
01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:30,240
Speaker 2: just talked about Tyreek, right, Targety got paid by Miami. Yeah,

2193
01:35:30,280 --> 01:35:31,840
Speaker 2: and because other guys are getting paid, all I want

2194
01:35:31,880 --> 01:35:34,240
Speaker 2: a new deal. Yeah, come on, bro, you can't put

2195
01:35:34,240 --> 01:35:35,760
Speaker 2: the hand captain your team.

2196
01:35:35,920 --> 01:35:39,120
Speaker 4: The salary I will say this though, it seems like, honestly,

2197
01:35:39,160 --> 01:35:40,880
Speaker 4: it seems like every year, at least to me. I'm

2198
01:35:40,880 --> 01:35:42,559
Speaker 4: sure it's going probably a little bit like every two

2199
01:35:42,680 --> 01:35:45,840
Speaker 4: or three, But salary cap just somehow, some weight just

2200
01:35:45,920 --> 01:35:48,240
Speaker 4: keeps going up and up and up and up. Like

2201
01:35:48,320 --> 01:35:50,080
Speaker 4: you know, when we're like we're getting crazy, Like you know,

2202
01:35:50,120 --> 01:35:51,320
Speaker 4: we were saying, like you could have had twenty six,

2203
01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:53,679
Speaker 4: twenty seven be the highest paid and like aj Brown's

2204
01:35:53,720 --> 01:35:55,599
Speaker 4: is crazy. Now we're looking at Jefferson at thirty six,

2205
01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:58,320
Speaker 4: three or four years from now. Just hypothetically, guys, we

2206
01:35:58,400 --> 01:36:00,760
Speaker 4: could be looking at that thirty six and like, dang,

2207
01:36:01,000 --> 01:36:03,559
Speaker 4: that's nothing compared to that. That's a deal, that's nothing

2208
01:36:03,640 --> 01:36:07,439
Speaker 4: compared to like, let's just say, like like Pooka Nakula,

2209
01:36:07,560 --> 01:36:09,240
Speaker 4: I'm just because I'll just be throwing him in there

2210
01:36:09,280 --> 01:36:12,519
Speaker 4: since he's oh yeah, there's a yeah, Like that's nothing

2211
01:36:12,600 --> 01:36:18,760
Speaker 4: compared to Puka Nakula's projected four to six fifty, you

2212
01:36:18,840 --> 01:36:20,800
Speaker 4: know what I mean. Like the number is just it's

2213
01:36:20,840 --> 01:36:23,519
Speaker 4: just the inflation of these contracts and sellar caps are

2214
01:36:23,560 --> 01:36:26,160
Speaker 4: just going high every year. It seems that, yeah, I know,

2215
01:36:26,320 --> 01:36:28,559
Speaker 4: Jefferson's gonna get want to get paid, but also then

2216
01:36:28,600 --> 01:36:30,479
Speaker 4: I'm just gonna get bigger and bigger, So his deal

2217
01:36:30,560 --> 01:36:34,080
Speaker 4: is gonna get shorter and shorter as as cap goes up.

2218
01:36:34,280 --> 01:36:35,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's why I would have locked him up a

2219
01:36:35,840 --> 01:36:38,800
Speaker 2: couple of years ago. So fair, fair before you get

2220
01:36:38,800 --> 01:36:40,519
Speaker 2: to the point where you have to pay the top

2221
01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:42,120
Speaker 2: dollars in the market, and that's what they're gonna end

2222
01:36:42,200 --> 01:36:45,680
Speaker 2: up having to do. Coming up next, this move was

2223
01:36:45,800 --> 01:36:48,640
Speaker 2: pretty much. I didn't see really anybody disagreeing with this,

2224
01:36:48,960 --> 01:36:51,760
Speaker 2: but I feel like it's a little short sighted here

2225
01:36:52,280 --> 01:36:54,559
Speaker 2: on the baseball side of things. Martin and Vida would

2226
01:36:54,600 --> 01:36:58,120
Speaker 2: dive into that conversation. Coming up next, Thoroughbred racing as

2227
01:36:58,160 --> 01:37:02,240
Speaker 2: a new independent regulator haisup that is implementing comprehensive reforms

2228
01:37:02,240 --> 01:37:04,200
Speaker 2: and the sport is combining hands on care with cutting

2229
01:37:04,240 --> 01:37:06,559
Speaker 2: that technology to help keep its athletes safe. To learn

2230
01:37:06,640 --> 01:37:08,600
Speaker 2: more of it's the Safety Runs First dot com. That

2231
01:37:08,760 --> 01:37:12,519
Speaker 2: Safety Runs First dot Com. Martin and vj comes to

2232
01:37:12,520 --> 01:37:14,600
Speaker 2: your line from the tire Raq dot Com studios. You

2233

01:37:19,479 --> 01:37:22,720
Speaker 2: you can get us at Fox Sports Radio Vjacks, I

2236
01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:25,400
Speaker 2: actually want to talk about baseball at the bottom of

2237
01:37:25,560 --> 01:37:29,599
Speaker 2: the hour after we do Steve's update. Real quick. Did

2238
01:37:29,680 --> 01:37:30,120
Speaker 2: you see.

2239
01:37:31,600 --> 01:37:36,160
Speaker 1: Drew Locke talking at OTAs saying that.

2240
01:37:37,280 --> 01:37:39,760
Speaker 2: He appreciates the people that respect this game and knows

2241
01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:42,080
Speaker 2: what he can do, but he's the backup and he's

2242
01:37:42,120 --> 01:37:45,120
Speaker 2: here to help Daniel Jones. Did you see that?

2243
01:37:46,000 --> 01:37:46,040
Speaker 5: No?

2244
01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:48,240
Speaker 2: I didn't. I don't know if I like that, Well,

2245
01:37:48,360 --> 01:37:52,559
Speaker 2: it's very interesting to me because you know, the Internet VJ.

2246
01:37:52,800 --> 01:37:54,479
Speaker 2: It goes back a long, long time.

2247
01:37:54,640 --> 01:37:55,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, you.

2248
01:37:57,040 --> 01:37:59,120
Speaker 2: Can look things up. Like back when we were reading

2249
01:37:59,160 --> 01:38:01,800
Speaker 2: newspapers every day. If you threw out yesterday's newspaper, you

2250
01:38:01,840 --> 01:38:05,559
Speaker 2: don't really have yesterday's mo see. But in this day

2251
01:38:05,640 --> 01:38:10,240
Speaker 2: and age, you can google Drew Locke starter and pull

2252
01:38:10,320 --> 01:38:13,360
Speaker 2: up an article from just March fifteenth. What was it,

2253
01:38:13,520 --> 01:38:17,640
Speaker 2: March April, May, June, just a few short months ago. Right,

2254
01:38:17,680 --> 01:38:20,080
Speaker 2: it's now June first. Pay your rent everybody. But you

2255
01:38:20,120 --> 01:38:27,120
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying today, a few short months ago, right, Daniel,

2256
01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:30,840
Speaker 2: I mean, Drew Locke was sold on the chance to

2257
01:38:30,880 --> 01:38:34,639
Speaker 2: be a starting quarterback, according to John Snyder, the Seahawks

2258
01:38:34,720 --> 01:38:39,160
Speaker 2: general manager. He said, quote, they basically sold him on

2259
01:38:39,160 --> 01:38:40,920
Speaker 2: the opportunity to compete and be a starter, and he

2260
01:38:40,960 --> 01:38:43,599
Speaker 2: thought it was the right opportunity. He looked at Baker

2261
01:38:43,680 --> 01:38:46,160
Speaker 2: Mayfield's opportunity last year and felt that this could be

2262
01:38:46,240 --> 01:38:51,360
Speaker 2: something similar. Right, Like Baker Mayfield went to Tampa and

2263
01:38:51,520 --> 01:38:54,320
Speaker 2: had to win the job. You know, after the different

2264
01:38:54,320 --> 01:38:56,200
Speaker 2: stops he had been in his career, he had to

2265
01:38:56,360 --> 01:39:02,200
Speaker 2: win the job. Right, So there's been let me think

2266
01:39:02,479 --> 01:39:07,280
Speaker 2: one two zero football games played since then, right, and

2267
01:39:07,439 --> 01:39:09,680
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, to be honest, has only played.

2268
01:39:09,439 --> 01:39:10,960
Speaker 1: What five total games?

2269
01:39:11,240 --> 01:39:13,679
Speaker 2: Four total games has started five because he got knocked

2270
01:39:13,720 --> 01:39:16,240
Speaker 2: out due to one to the injury since signing his

2271
01:39:16,360 --> 01:39:21,280
Speaker 2: big extension in New York. I'll just say this, seems

2272
01:39:21,320 --> 01:39:23,519
Speaker 2: like we're seeing mixed messages.

2273
01:39:23,280 --> 01:39:24,040
Speaker 1: Out of Big Blue.

2274
01:39:24,600 --> 01:39:26,560
Speaker 2: Seems like they may be a little confused over what

2275
01:39:26,640 --> 01:39:29,559
Speaker 2: they're trying to do here, But they've been confused as

2276
01:39:29,560 --> 01:39:32,160
Speaker 2: they decided to tell the world that Daniel Jones was

2277
01:39:32,200 --> 01:39:34,800
Speaker 2: worth forty thou forty million dollars a season for.

2278
01:39:34,880 --> 01:39:38,280
Speaker 3: Fifteen touchdown passes. So they're right, they're part for their

2279
01:39:38,360 --> 01:39:41,200
Speaker 3: own part. For me, I'm expecting them to shoot even

2280
01:39:41,360 --> 01:39:43,720
Speaker 3: coming down the fairway with what they've been doing. I

2281
01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:46,800
Speaker 3: have no And what's crazy is this is you bring

2282
01:39:46,880 --> 01:39:50,200
Speaker 3: in Brian Dable, you get Brian Dable in the building, right,

2283
01:39:50,760 --> 01:39:52,760
Speaker 3: and you go to a playoffs and not only do

2284
01:39:52,880 --> 01:39:55,719
Speaker 3: you go to the playoffs, you win a game against

2285
01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:57,880
Speaker 3: the team that has the receiver we were just talking

2286
01:39:57,920 --> 01:39:59,920
Speaker 3: about the top of the hour, justin Jefferson. They go

2287
01:40:00,120 --> 01:40:02,880
Speaker 3: beat the Vikings on the road, on the road, but

2288
01:40:03,080 --> 01:40:07,439
Speaker 3: then you don't pay Sa Kwan, you you go through

2289
01:40:07,520 --> 01:40:10,120
Speaker 3: crazy injury, you don't address the offensive line, you have

2290
01:40:10,280 --> 01:40:13,840
Speaker 3: some big time injuries. And now this of course is

2291
01:40:13,920 --> 01:40:16,680
Speaker 3: mixed signals. Bro, That's all they've been sending Martin. I

2292
01:40:16,760 --> 01:40:18,519
Speaker 3: don't expect nothing out of New York.

2293
01:40:18,560 --> 01:40:18,680

Speaker 3: this is off of one of your who you got patrickson?

2448
01:47:09,040 --> 01:47:12,639
Speaker 2: Okay, God sham God, Yo, let's go okay, God sham,

2449
01:47:12,760 --> 01:47:14,320
Speaker 2: God give him his flowers.

2450
01:47:14,560 --> 01:47:17,760
Speaker 3: We talk about the transformation or just the calmness of

2451
01:47:17,840 --> 01:47:20,840
Speaker 3: Kyrie Irvin. Who's that number one assistant on that team

2452
01:47:20,920 --> 01:47:23,720
Speaker 3: with the Dallas Mavericks, that that has been that guy

2453
01:47:23,800 --> 01:47:26,880
Speaker 3: that put his arm around Kyrie. God sham, God, give

2454
01:47:27,000 --> 01:47:30,120
Speaker 3: that man his flowers. He's not getting talked about enough.

2455
01:47:30,280 --> 01:47:32,160
Speaker 3: We talk about the head coaches all the time, Marian,

2456
01:47:32,360 --> 01:47:34,200
Speaker 3: and a lot of times we do miss that. A

2457
01:47:34,280 --> 01:47:36,120
Speaker 3: lot of times head coaches are just figureheads.

2458
01:47:36,200 --> 01:47:36,360
Speaker 2: Man.

2459
01:47:36,880 --> 01:47:39,400
Speaker 3: Some of these assistants are like these guys bros, or

2460
01:47:39,479 --> 01:47:42,000
Speaker 3: like their uncle, or like they're like a father figure.

2461
01:47:42,320 --> 01:47:45,120
Speaker 3: It's like football. It's like recruiting, right. A lot of

2462
01:47:45,200 --> 01:47:47,320
Speaker 3: times you're not going to the school for Nick Saban.

2463
01:47:47,720 --> 01:47:49,439
Speaker 3: You're going to the school for the running back coach

2464
01:47:49,520 --> 01:47:51,600
Speaker 3: that shows up to all your games, that sat in

2465
01:47:51,640 --> 01:47:53,680
Speaker 3: your living room three or four. Nick Saban has been

2466
01:47:53,720 --> 01:47:55,920
Speaker 3: to your house once. The running back coach has been

2467
01:47:55,960 --> 01:47:58,000
Speaker 3: in your house four times. He showed up to your

2468
01:47:58,080 --> 01:48:00,280
Speaker 3: high school for lunch one day, he shows up to

2469
01:48:00,320 --> 01:48:01,000
Speaker 3: all your games.

2470
01:48:01,280 --> 01:48:04,040
Speaker 1: He's the guy. But of course you love the coach.

2471
01:48:04,080 --> 01:48:05,439
Speaker 3: I just want to make sure we just give our

2472
01:48:05,520 --> 01:48:08,000
Speaker 3: salute and take tip our hats to God Sham got

2473
01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:11,880
Speaker 3: the job. He's done with helping Kyrie and his mental

2474
01:48:11,960 --> 01:48:15,080
Speaker 3: calm himself, level himself out, piece himself up, man, and

2475
01:48:15,160 --> 01:48:16,439
Speaker 3: get to the point to where he's at right now.

2476
01:48:16,439 --> 01:48:18,760
Speaker 4: I'll give him miss Flowers too, because that thanks to God,

2477
01:48:18,840 --> 01:48:21,040
Speaker 4: Sham God, I got my first win against Martin Weiss

2478
01:48:21,080 --> 01:48:24,040
Speaker 4: and VJ Husky, who shout out to God Sham.

2479
01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:26,760
Speaker 2: Guy, let's go baby, I mean, first of all, one

2480
01:48:26,760 --> 01:48:28,559
Speaker 2: of the coolest names in the history of sport.

2481
01:48:28,680 --> 01:48:30,680
Speaker 1: Oh, absolututely.

2482
01:48:31,600 --> 01:48:33,840
Speaker 2: Al long since said one of the biggest jobs for

2483
01:48:34,240 --> 01:48:35,799
Speaker 2: and a head coach.

2484
01:48:35,640 --> 01:48:38,840
Speaker 1: Is hiring and firing assistance. Yeah you just the guy.

2485
01:48:38,920 --> 01:48:41,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta be able to know who's like if

2486
01:48:41,840 --> 01:48:45,479
Speaker 2: the coordinator situation is great and you again, he's an

2487
01:48:45,479 --> 01:48:47,360
Speaker 2: easy target. But you look at Nick Sirianni. How are

2488
01:48:47,360 --> 01:48:50,599
Speaker 2: you demoting a guy you just hired to be a heck,

2489
01:48:50,960 --> 01:48:53,960
Speaker 2: or even go down to your team, Mike, Mike, me, Daniel.

2490
01:48:54,040 --> 01:48:56,200
Speaker 2: You hire Vic Fangio and it doesn't work, you fire

2491
01:48:56,280 --> 01:48:58,880
Speaker 2: him after a year, like we'll see, maybe that defense

2492
01:48:58,960 --> 01:49:00,559
Speaker 2: is better coming up now because you have a new

2493
01:49:00,600 --> 01:49:03,280
Speaker 2: guy calling the shots like that, all that stuff really

2494
01:49:03,600 --> 01:49:06,240
Speaker 2: really matters. I mean, I guess the best way to

2495
01:49:06,280 --> 01:49:08,519
Speaker 2: look at it is like, you know, you go to

2496
01:49:08,600 --> 01:49:10,640
Speaker 2: work every day, or if you hear me, you go

2497
01:49:10,680 --> 01:49:13,080
Speaker 2: to work Monday through Friday. Whatever. You have like a

2498
01:49:13,439 --> 01:49:15,680
Speaker 2: CEO of a company that's your head coach, but you

2499
01:49:15,800 --> 01:49:18,599
Speaker 2: have a manager yep, right, who's your manager?

2500
01:49:18,680 --> 01:49:20,960
Speaker 1: Supervisor? Who's your supervisor?

2501
01:49:21,040 --> 01:49:24,080
Speaker 2: And a lot of times who your supervisor is really depends,

2502
01:49:24,360 --> 01:49:26,559
Speaker 2: really has a major impact on how you feel going

2503
01:49:26,600 --> 01:49:27,200
Speaker 2: to working today.

2504
01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:28,519
Speaker 1: Absolutely not the CEO.

2505
01:49:28,680 --> 01:49:33,479
Speaker 3: Also, other cool names in sports the Brickershaw Ferguson at

2506
01:49:33,520 --> 01:49:35,840
Speaker 3: a UVA that big tackle right there, and I give

2507
01:49:35,920 --> 01:49:38,040
Speaker 3: another one. Got you guys don't know she was a

2508
01:49:38,160 --> 01:49:40,720
Speaker 3: women's does give some women some props in sports too.

2509
01:49:41,520 --> 01:49:45,280
Speaker 3: Katie Smirka Duffy played at West Springfield High School. Why

2510
01:49:45,360 --> 01:49:47,160
Speaker 3: is that important to me? Because you know who mints

2511
01:49:47,200 --> 01:49:49,519
Speaker 3: hurt her as a young woman before she went off

2512
01:49:49,560 --> 01:49:52,760
Speaker 3: to college, Miss Karen Lawson, who is now the head

2513
01:49:52,840 --> 01:49:55,960
Speaker 3: coach of the Duke women's team. So if you remember

2514
01:49:56,080 --> 01:49:59,320
Speaker 3: Karl Larson that was balling in college in the WNBA

2515
01:50:00,800 --> 01:50:03,360
Speaker 3: mid toward a young freshman coming through West Springfield High

2516
01:50:03,360 --> 01:50:05,559
Speaker 3: School in Northern Virginia where I grew up. Her name

2517
01:50:05,680 --> 01:50:08,320
Speaker 3: was Katie's Smirka Duffy. I always thought that was a

2518
01:50:08,560 --> 01:50:09,519
Speaker 3: dope sports name.

2519
01:50:10,320 --> 01:50:12,479
Speaker 2: There you have it now, actually, VJ. I'm watching this

2520
01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:16,280
Speaker 2: this East Final right now, Florida with the three two

2521
01:50:16,360 --> 01:50:18,040
Speaker 2: leaders in the series and the two nothing lead in

2522
01:50:18,080 --> 01:50:20,880
Speaker 2: the game six minutes left in the third period. Yeah.

2523
01:50:20,880 --> 01:50:23,080
Speaker 2: I've been watching this guy pretty much since we started

2524
01:50:23,120 --> 01:50:24,640
Speaker 2: the show, so you may be surprised to hear that.

2525
01:50:24,920 --> 01:50:26,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, no, you're a sports guy. I know you're

2526
01:50:26,680 --> 01:50:29,000
Speaker 1: not a big hockey guy. But it's listen. I keep

2527
01:50:29,040 --> 01:50:31,559
Speaker 1: it a buck. I don't make excuses. We lose, we lose.

2528
01:50:31,680 --> 01:50:35,000
Speaker 3: We've been out hit this series, and that's been the

2529
01:50:35,160 --> 01:50:38,040
Speaker 3: unfortunate part about this series is that Florida's been playing

2530
01:50:38,160 --> 01:50:40,400
Speaker 3: way more physical than us. And that's what they do.

2531
01:50:40,600 --> 01:50:43,160
Speaker 3: They led hockey, they led a NHL and hits. They

2532
01:50:43,240 --> 01:50:45,720
Speaker 3: led the NHL in fights. Like they are a physical team.

2533
01:50:45,760 --> 01:50:48,880
Speaker 3: They wear on you, and that's what I don't think

2534
01:50:48,960 --> 01:50:53,800
Speaker 3: the Rangers reacted to well enough, especially Mikasavana Jabb and

2535
01:50:54,280 --> 01:50:57,679
Speaker 3: Chris Kreider, our two may guy even Pineri. These guys

2536
01:50:57,800 --> 01:51:01,040
Speaker 3: carried us all year long. These guys where the god.

2537
01:51:01,200 --> 01:51:04,400
Speaker 3: These guys are all top offensive guys all year long

2538
01:51:04,760 --> 01:51:08,040
Speaker 3: and laft forer Neer also two young kids, twenty four

2539
01:51:08,120 --> 01:51:10,559
Speaker 3: years old. He's got a bright future. He's signed up

2540
01:51:10,600 --> 01:51:12,400
Speaker 3: and locked up long term for the Rangers. But I've

2541
01:51:12,439 --> 01:51:14,800
Speaker 3: watched every minute of every of all of these games.

2542
01:51:14,880 --> 01:51:18,040
Speaker 3: We're being out hit, we're being out physical, and we're

2543
01:51:18,120 --> 01:51:20,000
Speaker 3: trying to finesse our way to wins.

2544
01:51:20,280 --> 01:51:21,639
Speaker 2: And we have some timely goals.

2545
01:51:21,680 --> 01:51:22,320
Speaker 1: We've had two.

2546
01:51:22,240 --> 01:51:24,439
Speaker 3: Shorties, which people that don't know what the shorty is

2547
01:51:24,520 --> 01:51:26,559
Speaker 3: is when you're on the power play and you give

2548
01:51:26,680 --> 01:51:28,519
Speaker 3: up a goal. So Florida's been on the power play

2549
01:51:28,600 --> 01:51:31,800
Speaker 3: man advantage, and the Rangers lead the NHL in the

2550
01:51:31,840 --> 01:51:35,840
Speaker 3: playoffs with six shorties this playoffs so far. So they

2551
01:51:35,880 --> 01:51:38,160
Speaker 3: can score whether they got a man advantage or is

2552
01:51:38,200 --> 01:51:40,760
Speaker 3: five on five or they're at disadvantage. So but we've

2553
01:51:40,840 --> 01:51:43,639
Speaker 3: been out hit mark especially in the middle of the ice,

2554
01:51:43,960 --> 01:51:46,800
Speaker 3: and we haven't played with the puck in our zone enough.

2555
01:51:47,000 --> 01:51:49,960
Speaker 3: We're getting floor checked, our asses and it's just it

2556
01:51:50,120 --> 01:51:50,840
Speaker 3: hasn't been good.

2557
01:51:50,880 --> 01:51:51,000
Speaker 2: Bro.

2558
01:51:51,120 --> 01:51:53,599
Speaker 3: The two games we won, we have some timely goals

2559
01:51:53,640 --> 01:51:56,240
Speaker 3: and we needed over time to win one of them.

2560
01:51:56,280 --> 01:51:59,439
Speaker 3: So I just thought that kind of got punked a

2561
01:51:59,439 --> 01:52:02,760
Speaker 3: little bit Forlorida, Florida. They are hitting team and the

2562
01:52:02,880 --> 01:52:05,120
Speaker 3: Rangers didn't respond, and I expect them to address that

2563
01:52:05,160 --> 01:52:07,280
Speaker 3: in the offseason. Maybe get some more goons, get some

2564
01:52:07,360 --> 01:52:09,320
Speaker 3: tougher guys, because this team is all locked up. There's

2565
01:52:09,360 --> 01:52:12,439
Speaker 3: no big free agents. The Rangers will be back to

2566
01:52:12,600 --> 01:52:15,080
Speaker 3: this point next year again. But it does look like

2567
01:52:15,160 --> 01:52:17,479
Speaker 3: this this could be over. It hurts, but it is

2568
01:52:17,560 --> 01:52:17,880
Speaker 3: what it is.

2569
01:52:17,960 --> 01:52:18,080
Speaker 2: Man.

2570
01:52:18,080 --> 01:52:19,479
Speaker 1: We got out hit, we got out physical.

2571
01:52:19,960 --> 01:52:23,599
Speaker 2: Do you think that it uh there's any added pressure

2572
01:52:23,720 --> 01:52:27,600
Speaker 2: on the Dallas Cowboys with the success of recently of

2573
01:52:27,680 --> 01:52:32,040
Speaker 2: the Texas Rangers and the Dallas Stars and now Dallas Mavericks,

2574
01:52:32,120 --> 01:52:34,759
Speaker 2: all of whom went to at least.

2575
01:52:34,640 --> 01:52:36,040
Speaker 1: Their conference championship.

2576
01:52:36,240 --> 01:52:39,320
Speaker 2: Right now, Dallas down down three to two to Edmonton,

2577
01:52:39,400 --> 01:52:41,680
Speaker 2: so they have they obviously have an uphill climb to

2578
01:52:41,840 --> 01:52:44,800
Speaker 2: go to the actual the Stanley Cup Final. But I mean,

2579
01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:47,680
Speaker 2: do you all of these teams The Rangers won with

2580
01:52:47,880 --> 01:52:50,240
Speaker 2: the Alcs and went and went one of the World Series.

2581
01:52:50,560 --> 01:52:52,880
Speaker 2: Then you have the Dallas Stars again in the West

2582
01:52:52,880 --> 01:52:55,880
Speaker 2: Conference final for the Stanley Cup right now and then

2583
01:52:56,479 --> 01:52:58,680
Speaker 2: Mavericks in the NBA Finals right now. Do you think

2584
01:52:58,720 --> 01:53:00,759
Speaker 2: that gives added pressure to the Dallas Cowboys.

2585
01:53:00,840 --> 01:53:01,640
Speaker 1: Absolutely do, But I.

2586
01:53:01,640 --> 01:53:03,519
Speaker 3: Don't think you can put any extra pressure today. Put

2587
01:53:03,560 --> 01:53:06,320
Speaker 3: on that Jerry Jones and just having a star on

2588
01:53:06,439 --> 01:53:10,080
Speaker 3: your helmet puts on puts on them all together themselves.

2589
01:53:10,240 --> 01:53:11,639
Speaker 1: I don't think there's I don't think.

2590
01:53:11,479 --> 01:53:15,120
Speaker 3: There's a logo in all of sports in the world,

2591
01:53:15,640 --> 01:53:19,679
Speaker 3: maybe other than what Man, what Manchester, what Man United

2592
01:53:19,800 --> 01:53:21,720
Speaker 3: used to be. Because I'm a big FIFA guy. I

2593
01:53:21,760 --> 01:53:25,120
Speaker 3: watched a Siria La League. I'm a big soccer guy,

2594
01:53:25,200 --> 01:53:28,600
Speaker 3: football guy. That man, when you put on that red jersey, bro,

2595
01:53:28,800 --> 01:53:31,800
Speaker 3: you're expected to win and win big, not just win,

2596
01:53:31,880 --> 01:53:34,920
Speaker 3: win big. I think Dallas that star man, it just

2597
01:53:35,080 --> 01:53:41,320
Speaker 3: it intensifies everything and magnifies everything that you do. But yeah,

2598
01:53:41,439 --> 01:53:43,400
Speaker 3: have the if the MAVs go win this man and

2599
01:53:44,040 --> 01:53:46,919
Speaker 3: the Stars somehow come back and go fight for Lord Stanley.

2600
01:53:47,200 --> 01:53:49,639
Speaker 3: If you're the Cowboys and dear Dall, yeah, you better

2601
01:53:49,680 --> 01:53:52,320
Speaker 3: you can't. You can't be the only losers in town.

2602
01:53:52,840 --> 01:53:54,439
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. You bet you better go win,

2603
01:53:54,760 --> 01:53:56,120
Speaker 3: you better go win something. But we know that's not

2604
01:53:56,160 --> 01:53:56,639
Speaker 3: gonna happen.

2605
01:53:56,680 --> 01:54:01,160
Speaker 2: Dallas. The Cowboys losers, considering that won thirty six regular

2606
01:54:01,200 --> 01:54:04,960
Speaker 2: season games in the last three But to your point, no,

2607
01:54:05,479 --> 01:54:08,439
Speaker 2: no conference championship appearers, what one playoff win in that

2608
01:54:08,560 --> 01:54:10,080
Speaker 2: time period. Yeah, and it's a.

2609
01:54:10,560 --> 01:54:13,479
Speaker 1: Rough sledding at the start. And they're not winning nothing

2610
01:54:13,520 --> 01:54:15,919
Speaker 1: this year. That was not going to the NFC championship

2611
01:54:15,920 --> 01:54:19,840
Speaker 1: game this season. Their off season has been very questionable. Yes,

2612
01:54:20,560 --> 01:54:21,519
Speaker 1: what are you doing, Jerry?

2613
01:54:21,800 --> 01:54:22,200
Speaker 2: Wake up?

2614
01:54:22,320 --> 01:54:25,280
Speaker 3: Scram somebody scrambling. That's what happens, Martin when you don't

2615
01:54:25,320 --> 01:54:27,720
Speaker 3: take care of this, Martin. The Dallas Cowboys problems goes

2616
01:54:27,760 --> 01:54:31,320
Speaker 3: all the way back to paying Deep playing Zeke before

2617
01:54:31,360 --> 01:54:34,680
Speaker 3: you pay Dak. It still goes back four years and

2618
01:54:34,880 --> 01:54:38,680
Speaker 3: this is what happens. You see the domino effect rolled

2619
01:54:38,760 --> 01:54:41,600
Speaker 3: down here in this and look here we are. Dak

2620
01:54:41,920 --> 01:54:43,600
Speaker 3: DA's up again. Think about that.

2621
01:54:43,920 --> 01:54:44,640
Speaker 2: Dack's up again.

2622
01:54:44,760 --> 01:54:44,840
Speaker 1: Bro.

2623
01:54:45,240 --> 01:54:47,040
Speaker 2: This is what he's going to be at least a

2624
01:54:47,200 --> 01:54:50,760
Speaker 2: fifty five to fifty seven to sixty million quarterback, which

2625
01:54:50,840 --> 01:54:53,560
Speaker 2: is usanity.

2626
01:54:53,120 --> 01:54:55,080
Speaker 3: Man, And I don't even want to play the old

2627
01:54:55,160 --> 01:54:59,480
Speaker 3: he's not worth a card. But you're not, though, Bro,

2628
01:55:00,280 --> 01:55:03,920
Speaker 3: you haven't, did you? Fifty five sixty million for Dak Prescott.

2629
01:55:04,800 --> 01:55:06,520
Speaker 2: Well, the reality is they could have had him for

2630
01:55:06,600 --> 01:55:08,880
Speaker 2: a lot less if they had again signed him earlier,

2631
01:55:08,920 --> 01:55:11,800
Speaker 2: and I played around and just took their time and

2632
01:55:11,920 --> 01:55:14,440
Speaker 2: go ahead and getting deals done. But coming up next,

2633
01:55:14,520 --> 01:55:16,760
Speaker 2: I will pay off that baseball topic that I want

2634
01:55:16,840 --> 01:55:19,600
Speaker 2: to talk about, how the MLB is no integrating negro

2635
01:55:19,720 --> 01:55:23,280
Speaker 2: league stats love it into the official.

2636
01:55:22,920 --> 01:55:24,080
Speaker 1: Record of Major League Baseball.

2637

01:55:30,320 --> 01:55:33,520
Speaker 1: They tried, they get that one goal, but it wasn't

2642
01:55:33,600 --> 01:55:34,160
Speaker 1: quite enough.

2643
01:55:34,360 --> 01:55:36,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, we were just all in engineer room watching it together. Man,

2644
01:55:36,720 --> 01:55:39,080
Speaker 3: it's all good Florida. But listen, Florida was a good

2645
01:55:39,120 --> 01:55:40,880
Speaker 3: team too. They had over fifty wins. This ain't no

2646
01:55:41,280 --> 01:55:43,960
Speaker 3: this ain't no bump ass squad chuck. They got they

2647
01:55:44,040 --> 01:55:46,240
Speaker 3: got players. A lot of people feel like they had

2648
01:55:46,280 --> 01:55:48,240
Speaker 3: one of the better net miners in the league along

2649
01:55:48,280 --> 01:55:50,760
Speaker 3: with Igorsh's Stkin who I'm watching and the two net

2650
01:55:50,800 --> 01:55:52,600
Speaker 3: miners hugging each other out. If this was not only

2651
01:55:52,640 --> 01:55:55,760
Speaker 3: Igorsh's Sterkin, he had an under two point eight goal

2652
01:55:55,920 --> 01:55:57,919
Speaker 3: average per game during the entire playoffs.

2653
01:55:58,280 --> 01:56:01,800
Speaker 1: This is on the Stars. I am pissed at mika'savanta jab.

2654
01:56:02,080 --> 01:56:05,800
Speaker 3: I'm pissed at Chris Krider and Paneer in all off season,

01:56:14,040 --> 01:56:16,040

2662
01:56:23,400 --> 01:56:26,640
Speaker 3: goalies on the planet right now. This was not his fault.

2663
01:56:26,920 --> 01:56:28,880
Speaker 3: This was on the other Stars. They did not do

2664
01:56:29,240 --> 01:56:31,880
Speaker 3: They're lofting neir too. They did not do their damn job.

2665

Speaker 3: guys next NHL season.

2667
01:56:35,600 --> 01:56:40,720
Speaker 2: Speaking of cities, how many people do you think know

2668
01:56:41,440 --> 01:56:43,320
Speaker 2: what city the Florida Panthers play is?

2669
01:56:44,080 --> 01:56:45,640
Speaker 1: Oh, oh, oh, my god.

2670
01:56:46,000 --> 01:56:49,160
Speaker 3: I guarantee you, without looking it up, ninety five percent

2671
01:56:49,240 --> 01:56:53,000
Speaker 3: of the listeners right now don't because they're gonna take Miami.

2672
01:56:54,120 --> 01:56:55,440
Speaker 1: I mean that's what I would have thought.

2673
01:56:55,720 --> 01:56:59,360
Speaker 2: Oh really, yeah, Oh, I mean they do play I

2674
01:56:59,400 --> 01:57:01,680
Speaker 2: thought they did. They're in the Miami area from what

2675
01:57:01,800 --> 01:57:05,240
Speaker 2: I from what I am nor Sunrise Florida.

2676
01:57:05,000 --> 01:57:08,280
Speaker 3: Exactly, sun Rise, Florida right outside of a kind of

2677
01:57:08,360 --> 01:57:09,520
Speaker 3: right outside of Fort Lauderdale.

2678
01:57:10,200 --> 01:57:11,960
Speaker 2: But that's not like when you're flying to Miami.

2679
01:57:12,000 --> 01:57:13,880
Speaker 3: You can fly to Miami International, or you can fly

2680
01:57:14,000 --> 01:57:16,080
Speaker 3: to North Hollywood, or you can fly in the Fort Lauderdale.

2681
01:57:16,200 --> 01:57:18,480
Speaker 3: I've flown in and out of all three, depending upon

2682
01:57:18,760 --> 01:57:20,440
Speaker 3: who's got the cheaper pricing where I can get an

2683
01:57:20,480 --> 01:57:21,080
Speaker 3: now ecstasy.

2684
01:57:21,360 --> 01:57:22,200
Speaker 1: So that's true.

2685
01:57:22,280 --> 01:57:24,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, exactly, so you fly in and out. But no,

2686
01:57:24,480 --> 01:57:26,440
Speaker 3: they're not in Miami. A lot of people do think

2687
01:57:26,520 --> 01:57:29,360
Speaker 3: that they're not there in Sunrise, Florida. And congrats, congrats

2688
01:57:29,400 --> 01:57:31,760
Speaker 3: to the Florida Panthers. That's a good hockey team. They

2689
01:57:31,800 --> 01:57:33,680
Speaker 3: had a great season. I'm not gonna hate on them.

2690
01:57:33,880 --> 01:57:35,520
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be more pissed at my guys for not

2691
01:57:35,640 --> 01:57:37,280
Speaker 3: doing what the hell they were supposed to do. Period.

2692
01:57:37,280 --> 01:57:39,640
Speaker 2: All right, VJ, let's go quick about Steve man is

2693
01:57:39,720 --> 01:57:41,520
Speaker 2: left in our show right now? What's not your foot?

2694
01:57:41,520 --> 01:57:43,840
Speaker 2: I brought it up, but I wanted to ask you.

2695
01:57:43,960 --> 01:57:46,120
Speaker 2: You said, you said as going to break. You said

2696
01:57:46,160 --> 01:57:48,640
Speaker 2: you love it. You love Major League Baseball integrading negro

2697
01:57:48,720 --> 01:57:51,800
Speaker 2: league stats into the official record absolutely, because it should

2698
01:57:51,840 --> 01:57:53,600
Speaker 2: be bro like, let's get out of this and they

2699
01:57:53,640 --> 01:57:55,960
Speaker 2: need to do the a BA too. The NBA needs

2700
01:57:56,000 --> 01:57:58,080
Speaker 2: to do the right thing and let's make it. You

2701
01:57:58,200 --> 01:57:58,400
Speaker 2: make it.

2702
01:57:58,600 --> 01:58:00,920
Speaker 3: Think about like this, it's called the hockey Hall of Fame.

2703
01:58:01,120 --> 01:58:03,280
Speaker 3: It's not the NHL Hall of Fame. It's called the

2704
01:58:03,360 --> 01:58:06,080
Speaker 3: basketball Hall of Fame. It's not the NBA Hall of Fame.

2705
01:58:06,120 --> 01:58:08,080
Speaker 3: Then why do you only count Nba'stat's then when you

2706
01:58:08,160 --> 01:58:11,840
Speaker 3: start talking about basketball and you know, highest scoring ever

2707
01:58:12,000 --> 01:58:13,760
Speaker 3: or this or that, no man integrated all.

2708
01:58:13,840 --> 01:58:15,760
Speaker 1: I loved it. And then look at Bob Gibson.

2709
01:58:15,840 --> 01:58:18,839
Speaker 2: Look at Bob Gibson. Baby, he took over some spots.

2710
01:58:18,920 --> 01:58:19,960
Speaker 1: Mary, they nad no.

2711
01:58:20,080 --> 01:58:20,480
Speaker 5: You know me.

2712
01:58:20,640 --> 01:58:22,480
Speaker 1: I like when people getting a right. There's some people

2713
01:58:22,520 --> 01:58:24,760
Speaker 1: out there that's real mad about it. Oh well, go cry.

2714
01:58:25,440 --> 01:58:26,360
Speaker 1: I actually didn't like it.

2715
01:58:26,520 --> 01:58:28,800
Speaker 2: I actually did matter for it. Yeah.

2716
01:58:29,040 --> 01:58:30,920
Speaker 1: Oh that's shot. Okay, go ahead, you got the floor.

2717
01:58:30,960 --> 01:58:32,920
Speaker 2: I got to hear this well, because the rationale is

2718
01:58:32,960 --> 01:58:37,080
Speaker 2: this the whole reason that the Negro leagues existed, right

2719
01:58:37,240 --> 01:58:39,960
Speaker 2: is because white people wouldn't let them play in Major.

2720
01:58:39,920 --> 01:58:43,840
Speaker 1: League baseball, right right reason, So don't tell me.

2721
01:58:43,920 --> 01:58:46,360
Speaker 2: Now that Josh Gibson is the leader in hits in

2722
01:58:46,440 --> 01:58:47,280
Speaker 2: Major League Baseball.

2723
01:58:47,400 --> 01:58:47,440
Speaker 4: No.

2724
01:58:47,920 --> 01:58:49,600
Speaker 1: Instead, what should be.

2725
01:58:49,720 --> 01:58:53,920
Speaker 2: Done, in my opinion, there's more days like Jackie Robinson Day.

2726
01:58:54,240 --> 01:58:56,760
Speaker 2: This should be a Negro league's day, the game at

2727
01:58:56,840 --> 01:59:00,760
Speaker 2: Rickwood Field coming up in two weeks. I love that concept, right,

2728
01:59:01,160 --> 01:59:05,040
Speaker 2: shine a light on what happened at the time, as

2729
01:59:05,120 --> 01:59:07,520
Speaker 2: opposed to trying to integrate these stats in a way that,

2730
01:59:07,680 --> 01:59:09,880
Speaker 2: honestly to me doesn't make sense because they played in

2731
01:59:09,960 --> 01:59:11,120
Speaker 2: two separate leagues.

2732
01:59:11,960 --> 01:59:15,920
Speaker 1: You know what, man, You know why? Brother? You just

2733
01:59:16,000 --> 01:59:17,560
Speaker 1: swayed to me that fast. You know why?

2734
01:59:18,200 --> 01:59:22,960
Speaker 3: Because I hate to get on a you know, nationality

2735
01:59:23,000 --> 01:59:25,920
Speaker 3: black white thing or whatever. But it does feel like

2736
01:59:26,240 --> 01:59:29,200
Speaker 3: when they do integrate, it does kind of take away.

2737
01:59:30,120 --> 01:59:30,440
Speaker 1: Okay.

2738
01:59:30,760 --> 01:59:33,440
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're a seven year old kid right now,

2739
01:59:34,080 --> 01:59:36,800
Speaker 2: you're learning baseball, right who's the all time hit leader?

2740
01:59:37,040 --> 01:59:38,520
Speaker 1: The answer is not gonna be Pete Rose.

2741
01:59:38,520 --> 01:59:40,840
Speaker 2: The answer is gonna be Josh Gibson, and you're gonna

2742
01:59:40,840 --> 01:59:44,480
Speaker 2: be like, whoa, whoa Josh Gibbson played for the Homestead Grades.

2743
01:59:45,360 --> 01:59:46,160
Speaker 1: I don't see them.

2744
01:59:46,280 --> 01:59:48,120
Speaker 2: When did they play at Fenway Park?

2745
01:59:48,440 --> 01:59:48,640
Speaker 7: Never?

2746
01:59:49,240 --> 01:59:53,640
Speaker 2: Right, So it's like the idea, Look, I think, to me,

2747
01:59:53,720 --> 01:59:55,240
Speaker 2: it's just a short sighted idea.

2748
01:59:55,680 --> 01:59:58,400
Speaker 1: Paint the whole picture. Explain why the.

2749
01:59:58,480 --> 02:00:01,400
Speaker 2: Negro leagues had to exist as opposed to just combining.

2750
02:00:01,480 --> 02:00:04,440
Speaker 2: This is like now, like sure Ty cobbs records are

2751
02:00:04,480 --> 02:00:06,880
Speaker 2: now knocked down a few pegs and nobody's.

2752
02:00:06,520 --> 02:00:07,720
Speaker 1: Really gonna be hurt by any of this.

2753
02:00:08,040 --> 02:00:11,160
Speaker 2: All these guys are long since dead, right, But maybe

2754
02:00:11,280 --> 02:00:14,040
Speaker 2: provide pensions for every single Negro league family, not just

2755
02:00:14,120 --> 02:00:16,360
Speaker 2: the ones that are still living, right, That would be

2756
02:00:16,480 --> 02:00:18,000
Speaker 2: the type of thing that I think would be a

2757
02:00:18,080 --> 02:00:22,200
Speaker 2: bigger idea, and that's something that would be actually influential.

2758
02:00:22,280 --> 02:00:24,120
Speaker 2: This is cool, but to me, it's it's kind of

2759
02:00:24,160 --> 02:00:25,040
Speaker 2: much do about nothing.

2760
02:00:25,440 --> 02:00:27,440
Speaker 1: I take a back seat, my bad. I know you

2761
02:00:27,560 --> 02:00:28,400
Speaker 1: swaged me that fast.

2762
02:00:28,480 --> 02:00:31,920
Speaker 3: I and that's because once again, you you know me

2763
02:00:31,960 --> 02:00:33,720
Speaker 3: and all a listener, A lot of listeners do too

2764
02:00:33,800 --> 02:00:34,680
Speaker 3: know me on a personal level.

2765
02:00:34,720 --> 02:00:35,160
Speaker 1: Hose stand.

2766
02:00:35,160 --> 02:00:37,440
Speaker 3: As far as America and the way things have shook

2767
02:00:37,600 --> 02:00:41,840
Speaker 3: shaken out over with race, race issues in baseball and basketball,

2768
02:00:42,200 --> 02:00:44,600
Speaker 3: just sports in general, and it does seem like if

2769
02:00:44,640 --> 02:00:47,720
Speaker 3: you do bring it all together, you kind of erase

2770
02:00:47,800 --> 02:00:50,600
Speaker 3: and shove out what we have been through as a

2771
02:00:50,680 --> 02:00:53,520
Speaker 3: people and just kind of bring it all together. Maybe

2772
02:00:54,000 --> 02:00:56,440
Speaker 3: maybe you know it's good on both sides. There's good,

2773
02:00:56,480 --> 02:00:59,640
Speaker 3: and there's good from both ends. I'll stay I'll stay

2774
02:00:59,640 --> 02:00:59,960
Speaker 3: there with it.

2775
02:01:00,280 --> 02:01:02,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want to run up concurrent or parallel

2776
02:01:02,280 --> 02:01:03,800
Speaker 2: something like that, I'd be okay with it. But just

2777
02:01:04,080 --> 02:01:07,080
Speaker 2: integrating them all the way, not with it, but coming

2778
02:01:07,160 --> 02:01:07,960
Speaker 2: up my blass guard
