No? Joan bead runs like my father, 104 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: Like I said, how old you have? JJ? Reddick stinks, 105 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 1: he stinks, he sks, Butler stinks. No, he's the only 106 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: player they got. It's only one. You have a love affairs, Harris, 107 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 1: he's been hot and cold. Ben Simmons, Uh does he 108 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: shoot with the left hand? Right now? I've asked you 109 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: just a million times. I don't even know what hand 110 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: you guys shoots with. First of all, neither neither can't shoot. 111 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: But you're the best starting five in the playoffs, according 112 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: to black Chack in the league. In the league, got 113 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: you need help. That's me telling you you need help, 114 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: means you really need help. Alright. So Paul has really 115 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 1: no opinion on that series. Um, Celtics Bucks, how about 116 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: that one one? They're both teams would blowout wins. Yes, 117 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: what thoughts do you have going back to Boston for 118 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: Game three with the Celtics a one and a half 119 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: point favorite. I don't know, I don't know. That is 120 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: a confusing series. It's gonna depend really on two things. 121 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: We we've talked about this before. Whether Middleton hits his shots. 122 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: Mira Church was in foul trouble last night. They were 123 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: able to get by because they were blowing him out 124 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: early sowing Brown was hitting his shots. Janice needs guys 125 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: to help him out. He can't put everything on his shoulder. 126 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: He was making ridiculous shots last night. He was He 127 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: was tremendous um. And on the other flip side, when 128 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: Kyrie Irving doesn't show up, they just have no shot 129 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: to the Celtics. So um, this is an interesting series 130 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: because it's gonna have to turn into GrindFest for the 131 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: Celtics to win. And Kyrie really is gonna have to 132 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: win because we play so well because black Check. We 133 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: talked about this a lot. Also, if Kyrie doesn't score, 134 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: where did this scoring come from in Boston? That's that's 135 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 1: the problem. They going lows where they can't score. Yeah, 136 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: they struggle. And we talked about this today on our 137 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: new series x M show channel light seven nine to 138 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: eleven am every weekday. It's called The Action Network on 139 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: series XM. Real original name Chad, but Paul and I 140 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: host that show every day and we had worldwide wab 141 00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 1: Rob Perez on today, and he said something really interesting 142 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: about this series. He picks the Celtics to win it 143 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: um and the reason being he doesn't see the Bucks 144 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: making any adjustments whatsoever. And I kind of agree with 145 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: him because when we talked about this series last week, 146 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: I think we both thought that Janice was gonna have 147 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:42,080 Speaker 1: to become more of a facilitator because Brad Stevens defense 148 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: is going to be keyed in on him and focused 149 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: on taking him out of his game. And last night, 150 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: even though the Bucks won big, Janice didn't play any 151 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: differently than he did in Game one. So that led 152 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: Rob to believe that they're just not going to adjust. 153 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: They're just gonna try to do what they do and 154 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: be better than Boston, and Boston with Brad Stevens and 155 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: the defense they play, could be a very tough out. 156 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: I mean, what do you what do you think about? Yeah, 157 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: I understand what what I was saying. He's basically saying, listen, 158 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna sag, let them hit their threes, let them 159 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: hit their really tough shots, and if they can pull 160 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: it off four out of the seven games, tip your 161 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: hat to him. And he's basically saying I don't think 162 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna happen, and that he he thinks that Kyrie 163 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: can have uh two or three games where he carries 164 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: the team. Boston's gonna have to win a game where 165 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: Kyrie is gonna be off to win this series. It's 166 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: just the bottom line. Just like Milwaukee's gonna have to 167 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: win a game when Janice is off one night. Um, 168 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 1: someone's gonna have to step up. Either it's a Middleton 169 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: from Milwaukee, Um, whether it's a Jalen Brown for Boston. 170 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: Somebody is gonna have to put up one of those guys. 171 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: And it's gonna have to win a game because Kyrie 172 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: and in Jhannice just can't win it every night. Or 173 00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: maybe they can. We'll see. Does Gordon Hayward have it 174 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: in him? Gordon Hayward he been toast for about a 175 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: year and a half, two years, all right, So so 176 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: give me your pick in the series. Who wins it? 177 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: Now it's one one going back to Boston. I had 178 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: picked the Seas. Wow, look at you going, Celtics. All right, 179 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: all right, let's move out west. Last night we have 180 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: Game two in Golden State Warriors Rockets. A lot of 181 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: people have called this the de facto NBA Finals. I 182 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: don't know. I kind of think the Rockets secretly stink. Um. 183 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: They're not the team they were last year when they 184 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: lost to Golden State. They're worse this year. Golden State 185 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: might be better. I don't know. That team never seems 186 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: to take a step back everything. When Houston's way for 187 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: a second game in a row. In both of these 188 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: games on the road, they shot a higher percentage from 189 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: the field, They made more threes, and they attempted and 190 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 1: made more free throws, and they lost both games. What 191 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: has to happen for this team to win? I mean, 192 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: Steph Curry dislocates a finger last night, shoots three of 193 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:03,839 Speaker 1: thirteen for three, three or thirteen and the Rockets still lose, 194 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: don't even cover the number. What has to happen for 195 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: them to steal the game? Well, it was a lucky cover. Now, 196 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: let's be honest. It was if you had if you 197 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: had used in both those games, you're on the right side. Um, 198 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: that's a tremendous question. Um, James Harden gets poked in 199 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: the eye, he goes in his eyeballs bleeding. Then Steph 200 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: Curry distocates his finger. Then Kevin Durant falls down and 201 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: his tail bone. He just like I act like he 202 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: got shot by John Wayne. I just don't get these 203 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 1: NBA players anymore. It's really tough to watch. Um. They 204 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 1: flop on everything. Chris Paul might be the best flopper 205 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: I've ever seen in my life when it comes to 206 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: getting fouls. And you know what Golden Saints doing very well. 207 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 1: They are forcing the ball out of Chris Paul's hand 208 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: into Harden's hand and Hardens starting the offense at nine 209 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 1: eight seconds and Chris Paul is taking long three three 210 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: point shots. He is not a three point shooter, never 211 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: has been. He's turned into one because he plays for 212 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: that joke of D'Antoni and he's a guy that wants 213 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: to be in the lane and float whenever Harden is 214 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: off the floor. The pick and roll with him and 215 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: a capella is great and whenever to me, And just 216 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: right now, they're just they're so discombobulated, and last year 217 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: they weren't. And when Chris Paul pulled his hamstring, it 218 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: was over. And I have a feeling, like I told 219 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 1: you before, that D'Antoni is jinks. He had Joe Johnson 220 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: with all the boys. He broke his nose. Phoenix out. 221 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: Then they had a chance to beat the Spurs. They 222 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: were gonna win the championship. Robert Roy decided to throw 223 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 1: Steve Steve Nash over beneath the thing. Stottenmeyer came off 224 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: the bench. They suspended him. I think D'Antoni stinks as 225 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: a coach, and he's jinks. All right, that was a 226 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 1: lot there, you're not. I'm just telling you, like the 227 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: Lakers didn't get better when he had nothing? When the 228 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: guy has he had Steve Nash in the prime, stodder Meyer, 229 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 1: Joe Johnson, you want me to keep going? The guys 230 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: he had, the Sons, He had all these guys in 231 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 1: their prime. He said, all these asn't the primes? When 232 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: Houston and where is he gone? When he went to 233 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: the Lakers and in in in the Knicks and he 234 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: had nobody what happened? I think the problem is is 235 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 1: that d'antoni's offense is a great regular season offense. It's 236 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: not built for the playoffs. You can't play defense offense 237 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: that when you watch James Harden and you you keyed 238 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: on in a second ago. When James Harden is the 239 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: primary ball handler, he will just hold the ball out 240 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: around half court until la or nine seconds, and then 241 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: he will attempt to drive with it until he either 242 00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: pulls up for a three or makes one pass to 243 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,320 Speaker 1: someone who then has to put the ball in the 244 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 1: air immediately. And it's just not an efficient offense. He 245 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: tried to box somebody out last night and didn't grab 246 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: the ball, Like, just grab it, bro, It's it's called 247 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: a rebound. You know that Torre and Prince thing. How 248 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: did Yale get more rebounds than you? Um, well, they 249 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 1: just went up and they grabbed it and they got 250 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: more than us. And I'm like, hey, James, grab the 251 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: rebound like him and Eric Gordon like if they played defense, 252 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: it be sick half the time. They are allergic to defensive. 253 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: They don't even know if they know how to play defense. 254 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: And I and listen to me. I went to Arizona State. 255 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: I love James Harden. He's one of the worst defenders 256 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: in the league. Yeah, I mean, well, it's not even close. 257 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: Like a lot of its effort. I don't know. NBA 258 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,319 Speaker 1: players just want care. He doesn't care. He wants to 259 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: put up his fifty and then when it comes to 260 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: playoff time, he gets the handkerchief around his neck. Okay, 261 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: and that way since college he did. How many games 262 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: does Houston winning this series again? One? Yep, I'm with you. 263 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 1: I think they win game four and Golden State closed 264 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: this out in five. They stink crazy. Part is what 265 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: happens when it hasn't even happened yet, until you know 266 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 1: Curry and Durant both go off. Yeah, I mean Curry 267 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: has been quiet in this series. He has not had 268 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 1: a great first two games. He hasn't his name. Clay 269 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: had a nice night last night, but you still haven't 270 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: gotten one of those games from Clay where everything falls. No, 271 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: but he still was better last night. And one thing 272 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 1: about Clay he plays some defense. Yeah, I mean, well 273 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 1: they're a long team too. I mean, Durant will play 274 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: some defense when he wants to. And by the way, 275 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: we can keep on going on about this and that. 276 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: But if it wasn't for Austin Rivers and in uh 277 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: Eric Eric Eric a little bit. But Austin Rivers, Austin 278 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: Rivers kept them in that game and kept them in 279 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: the game in the second quarter. When when when when 280 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: Papa had to go in with a bloody eye fourteen 281 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: did she just call him Popeye, Come on, bro, poke 282 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: in the eye. You're out for eighty eight minutes. Uh, 283 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: he's crossing guys over a minute later he had fourteen 284 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 1: points that were a couple of really big baskets at 285 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: the end of the first and into the second quarter 286 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: that kept Houston alive in that game. So yeah, you're 287 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: right about Austin rivers. Um, all right, So we're on 288 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: the same page there. The last series in the NBA 289 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: Denver in Portland game to tonight Wednesday night. That series 290 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: right now one nothing Denver. I don't see how Portland 291 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: can really hang in this series. I think Yokich is 292 00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: just on another level in Portland's got no thing that 293 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: can remotely slow him down. I know they remotely can't 294 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: slow him down, but you know what, Lillard McCollum, they 295 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 1: have enough offensive where I think they can win a 296 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:12,280 Speaker 1: couple of games. But while he is an animal inside, 297 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: he's a beast. Um Cantor does not look healthy. He's not. 298 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: He's not. He's grabbed his shoulder a couple of times. 299 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: Um in joke. I think it's just taking the pounding. 300 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 1: And here's the other part about this is the Denver's 301 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 1: doing a great job. Jamal Murray, by the way, is 302 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 1: playing phenomenal basketball, and they keep picking rolling on McCollum 303 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: and Lillard. And I'm telling you right now, those picks, 304 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: by joke, it's gotta be taking their toll and they're 305 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: wearing him down, wearing him down. And Murray has been 306 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: hitting that nice little fourteen fifteen footer or he's dumping 307 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 1: it down to Yoga, who, by the way, is the 308 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: best big man passer in the game. I said this before. 309 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 1: Reminds me of Sabonis back in the day. He's a monster. 310 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: This guy is a monster, and he's tough to deal with. 311 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: I'm with you. I just think Lillard because he's so talented. 312 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: We'll get a couple of games. It's tough to win 313 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: in Portland, but Denver is gonna be tough to handle. 314 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: And then tonight they're gonna be tough to handle too. Yeah. 315 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I just can't get hurt there in real trouble. 316 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: They the depth on Denver. Portlands just can't compete with them. 317 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: Mean you mentioned Jamal Murray, Gary Harris has played well, 318 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: Paul Millsap has played surprisingly great. So I mean, I 319 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 1: just think Denver. I thinks another five game series and 320 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 1: then Denver goes to Golden State and get swept. Do 321 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: you think so Golden State killed them? This year killed them? 322 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: That's it. You can't there's nobody. Paul. Let me after 323 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 1: you right now. If I gave you a thousand dollars 324 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,400 Speaker 1: right now, at the beginning of this playoffs, everybody thought 325 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:41,400 Speaker 1: Denver was the Jewish play everybody.

Meanwhile, they're 328 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 1: gonna be in the Western Conference Final, Yeah they are. 329 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, Paul, if I 330 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,120 Speaker 1: hand you a thousand dollars right now to bet on 331 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: who's gonna win the NBA Finals, are you putting a 332 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: dollar anywhere other than Golden State. No, because Kevin durant, In, 333 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,239 Speaker 1: in in In, Steph Curry and Clay Thompson they in 334 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: one place. Sorry. Yeah, that's my point, And it's the 335 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: same way I'm not gonna put money on Embiid and Reddick. Yes, Reddick, 336 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 1: he sucks, alright. So basically you're telling me there are 337 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,880 Speaker 1: starting five is better than that starting five, I'll shut 338 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,239 Speaker 1: the funk up. You put your money. Basically, we just 339 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: wasted minutes of your time putting your money on Philadelphia. 340 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: The NBA doesn't matter. Golden State's gonna win the time. 341 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 1: So you're telling me you'd rather put your money in 342 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 1: Philadelphia to win it all the other than Denver. I'm 343 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 1: asking you a question. No, I would put it on 344 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 1: Golden State. Do you want me to say it was 345 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: wrong about the Sixers? Fine? I was wrong. There are 346 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 1: you happy?

About the island there, they're in 357 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: the hole because they've been playing at the Barklers Center. 358 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: It's a jinks. There's no love like Islander fans are 359 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: like the Colosseum. They're like the building. Yes, it's been 360 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 1: through a lot weathered, No weathered, hold on a lot 361 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: of good times, a lot of bad times, um, but 362 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: mostly you remember the good times. Okay, so the bad 363 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 1: times go away. And I told you, I told you 364 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 1: they were gonna down No. Two.

If they win the next 367 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: two games, there might be a petition to play at 368 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: the coliseum. I'm gonna join the I say we started 369 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 1: marching outside the Colosseum from them to play. I'll join 370 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: the march. Listen. I'm always down to protest at anything. 371 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 1: What I'll protest anything? Really, Yeah, I love it? Why not? 372 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start thinking stuff to protest. Yeah, let's protest 373 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 1: some ship. Okay, you know what I want to protest 374 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 1: the fact that you can't drink in a New York 375 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: airport before ten am on a Sunday. Wait a second, 376 00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: you can't drink before ten am on a Sunday at 377 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: Kennedy or LaGuardia. Why they will not sell you alcohol? 378 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 1: Did they give you a reason it's illegal. So now, 379 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 1: can you buy alcohol before ten o'clock in New York? No? 380 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: You know that they get blue laws. How the hell 381 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: do I know that. I don't worry. I'm not not 382 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: drinking Canadian whiskey in the morning. Well, I would like 383 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: to protest that because I think airports are international waters 384 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 1: and you should be able to do whatever you want, 385 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 1: whenever you want. Okay, you know what my thing is, 386 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,880 Speaker 1: if I was the president, every single person is world 387 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: should have a punch card explained. Okay, so once a 388 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 1: month you get to knock somebody out once a month. 389 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: Once a month. That feels a lot. Think about this, now, 390 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: think about this. Matt Ford has lost his monk. Okay, 391 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: think think about this. Okay, you have a punch card. Okay, 392 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 1: you have this punch card. Ships it's on you, it's 393 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,360 Speaker 1: on your phone, and a guy is just an ask 394 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: to you and you and you're just like sick and time, 395 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 1: like dude, I gotta punch card left, like stop and 396 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 1: if he keeps going, keep going, and you're like dude 397 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,119 Speaker 1: on punch card and you he's got to sit there 398 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,159 Speaker 1: with his hands behind his back and just take it. 399 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: But what happens when you're that guy. Here's the thing, 400 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: you'd stop being assholes to people because you wouldn't be 401 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: that guy because if you got knocked out thirty times 402 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: in one month, you probably have an issue. Oh all 403 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 1: right in my mind? Wrong. How about a guy just 404 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: like runs you over. You get to honk and go 405 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: show him your phone. He's got to get out of 406 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,199 Speaker 1: his car, he gets laid out on the Midtown Tunnel. 407 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: Everybody's gonna wait and you go around. How do you 408 00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: feel about the purge? Do you also want to implement 409 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 1: that as president? I'm just telling you that would solve 410 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: so many problems of duchery. You know, normally I wouldn't 411 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 1: entertain this, but considering we have President Trump, President LaDuke 412 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: is now that far vegged. Uh jesus um Bruins Blue Jackets. 413 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,920 Speaker 1: Any thoughts there? Two to one Columbus I you know what, 414 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 1: I I thought, Vegas laid the line because sometimes I 415 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: try to relate to sports that I'm I know my 416 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: hockey a little bit, but I don't know at a 417 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 1: time I'm gonna be honest with you, So I try 418 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: to relate to what people walk into a sports book. 419 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: So when you walk into a sports book, it's Columbus 420 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: against Boston. A lot of people are gonna let know 421 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: Boston Bruins. You're not gonna know Columbus. And Boston was 422 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: plus one hundred last night. And I even told you this. 423 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: If they were minus one ten, people would have still 424 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: played Boston. And I knew in Carolina was like it 425 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: was like, sorry, it was Carolina, right, Carolina, not Columbus. Right, 426 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: it's Columbus. I'm sorry Columbus minus one thirty. They were 427 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: when they were minus one thirty, I was like, wow, 428 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: that's a high one thirty. Like they're basically telling you 429 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: Columbus and win this game, and they did so, Like 430 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: I thought it was a funky line. That's why I 431 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: played Columbus. But you know more than me. I mean, 432 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,359 Speaker 1: does Boston win this series? I think Boston is the 433 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: better team. I'll be honest with I don't get the 434 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:38,680 Speaker 1: Columbus thing. But Brovski is is standing on his head. Yes, 435 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: I mean he's stopping everything. But when you look at it, 436 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,880 Speaker 1: you break these two teams down. Boston should win this series. 437 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: I mean the Bruins. Honestly, it should be the Bruins 438 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: and the Islanders, and in the conference finals, that all 439 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 1: the upsets we've had the Bruins, they're the most talented 440 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: team you think. I think the the two best teams 441 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: on paper left or Boston and San Jose. St. Louis is. St. 442 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: Louis is right there. I love St. Louis and they've 443 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 1: won some grindy games, grind out games. So the only 444 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 1: reason I don't put St. Louis there is they're they're 445 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: bringing out a rookie goaltender, so that, I mean, you 446 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: don't know how that's gonna break down. He's been great 447 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: so far, but you know we're we're not halfway through yet. Um. 448 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: But other than that, yeah, Boston should be there. And 449 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: the fact that Columbus just keeps winning games is confounding. 450 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: It's same thing with Colorado. You've got to eight seeds 451 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: that keep winning games and flexing. I haven't seen that. 452 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: We've been living together, by the way, for all the 453 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 1: people out there waiting for my place to get ready, 454 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 1: And uh, I didn't see the source in your house. 455 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 1: And you're just bringing up these big words. I just 456 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 1: I studied on my phone at night. Um, you don't 457 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: like to I've seen you at night. You snore all right, Um, 458 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 1: you're right, I don't. And it's like seven rooms over. 459 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 1: It's like seven rooms over. Can can I jump in 460 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: for one second? This is Matt, the produce of the show. 461 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: I think people really want to know what it's been 462 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,640 Speaker 1: like for you guys to live together. Maybe some pluses 463 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 1: and minus. The truth of the matter is. The truth 464 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: of the matter is, if we're going to be brutally 465 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: honest here, is that we've spent half of the time 466 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: in hotels in the city because we have a radio 467 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 1: show on Sirius every day at nine to nine to 468 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: eleven am. Um, So we've spent a mixture of time 469 00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 1: on Long Island and time in hotels. Um. Yeah, because 470 00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 1: it's just our schedules are obviously the same now and 471 00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: we're doing all this stuff, so like we've been mixed 472 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,680 Speaker 1: matching where we're staying. So we stayed at the hotel 473 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,439 Speaker 1: for like two three nights so we could get in 474 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: because we've been doing a lot of stuff on Sirius 475 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: to try to promote I will say Paul is a 476 00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 1: very pleasant house guest.

We went out the 492 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: other night with Chris Raybon from the Action Network. That 493 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: was fun. Got after it a little bit. I liked. 494 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: I like me some Chris Chris, he always gets after 495 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 1: it very sharp. NFL player had a couple of cocktails. Yep, yep, 496 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: we did. The dark beers were hitting a little way. Um. 497 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 1: So all right, let's move on Kentucky Derby. We will 498 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 1: be at Belmont Park this Saturday as roommates and best 499 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:03,439 Speaker 1: friends were unreal, like I just got invited and you 500 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 1: gotta sit at my table.

You come out of time on 503 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 1: a second Roomy. Where did we pick up your truck 504 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: from yesterday? And who put it there? You took it 505 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 1: to Belmont Park because I let you use it? And 506 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: where was it parked at Belmont Park? Where? Right by 507 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: the race course? By? Where do you think I tipped 508 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 1: in the valet? I want you to huh was this 509 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 1: a one time tip? Every day tip? Don't insult me Black. 510 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: All I want to know is oh, I mean the 511 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: truck was parked by the first term like you could 512 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 1: spit to the dirt. I don't say you getting a 513 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 1: few hundred bucks? Okay um. I take care of him 514 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: because you know why you get a hand captain, handicapper. 515 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: A lot of jockeys come in through that way, so 516 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 1: like once every once in a while, you hear anything 517 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: blows it out. I heard about the five horse here. 518 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: You got a cats some here and there. You gotta 519 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 1: always take care of like the valet guys because our 520 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: valet parking, the jockeys alright and training good tip, good tip. Um. 521 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 1: So we will be at Belmont Park on Saturday to 522 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 1: watch the Kentucky Derby there in the lap of luxury. Um, 523 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: let's talk about this race, ball. What what are we 524 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,440 Speaker 1: seeing here? We're a couple of days out. The forecast 525 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,360 Speaker 1: in Louisville for Saturday is calling for rain. Right now, 526 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: give me the horses that you like to win the race, 527 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 1: and potentially some long shots to hit the board for 528 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: some exotics. Well, I truly think only five horses can 529 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: win this race. And it's Oma Beach, game winner, Improbable, Roadster, Roadster, 530 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry to go away from Tacitus a little bit. 531 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: Here's the thing about Tacitus tests. This is a horse 532 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 1: that's an East East Coast base horse that we don't 533 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 1: know what he's really faced. Now, Omaha Beach is a 534 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 1: horse that has now beaten to Baffort horses. Um. I 535 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 1: don't know how I would put that into terms into 536 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: another sport, um, but it's insanely hard to do to 537 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: beat two Baffot horses that are going on the Derby trail. 538 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 1: So we have three Baffoot horses and a Mandela Horse, 539 00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: his main jockey takes Omaha Beach Um and Mike Smith 540 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,040 Speaker 1: when we had on the radio show and the Factor 541 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: by the way, Mike Smith, Big Factor. I justify last 542 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: year to the triple Crown guys. Guy's ice in his veins, Um, 543 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: I like game winner. But if it rains, I don't 544 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:49,920 Speaker 1: think they're gonna beat to Omaha Beach. I mean Mike 545 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: is confirmed. I mean he he basically told me. And 546 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,120 Speaker 1: I'll tell it to everybody. I don't like hiding tips. 547 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 1: I don't like to He basically told me, goes, listen, 548 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: if it rains, I if I don't run second, I'm 549 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 1: ringing first or second, he basically told me. And in 550 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: the horses are freak over the way. And that's the 551 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: thing is we we've seen if you've watched this horse, 552 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: we gave him to you in the Arkansas Derby a 553 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago as a winner. He won that race. 554 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: A couple of weeks before that, he wins that the 555 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: Rebel Stakes. Both of those were on sloppy tracks in 556 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:21,360 Speaker 1: the rain, and he looked outstanding in both. If there's 557 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: if it's raining at Churchill Downs, it would be foolish 558 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: not to bet that horse game Winner. Game Winner was 559 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: the horse I was on up until the Arkansas Derby. 560 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: I've loved game winners. The two year old Champion won 561 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: the Breeders Cup Juvenile out in Churchill Down, so he's 562 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: he's one at Churchill before. I just think Omaha Beach 563 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: in this weather with Mike Smith is the horse to beat. 564 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 1: But I can't fault game Winner. I have a future 565 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: on game Winner. I took him at six to one 566 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: thinking I wasn't going to get better than that. I 567 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: probably won't, but it's closer than I thought. He'll be 568 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: four to one. He's gonna be a second choice. It depends. 569 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: If it doesn't rain, he'll be the favorite. If it rains, 570 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: he's gonna be the second choice. And here's the thing. 571 00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: His sire Canny Ride love the Mud. He's never been 572 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: over it, so he might like it. You don't know, 573 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: so I would not dismiss this. But I do think 574 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: if it rains, they are going to run one too. 575 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: I I really do feel that. I I do feel that. 576 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: And the other part about this is Richard Mandela is 577 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick trainer of Omahaby. He's Bill Belichick of of 578 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 1: horse racing. He doesn't say a word. I mean, I've 579 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: tried to do interviews with him. I've been in horse 580 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: racing for over fifteen years now in tv UM, and 581 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: I've tried to get he doesn't say a word. I 582 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: have never ever in my life heard him speak so 583 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: much this week about Omaha Beach on how good he's doing. 584 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, where's this coming from. I've never heard Richard 585 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 1: talk this much. So if he's talking this much, his 586 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,960 Speaker 1: horse is doing very well. Now as far as exotic betting, 587 00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: because there's a lot of value in this race, I mean, 588 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 1: you don't have a real prohibitive favorite. There's a lot 589 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: of value in some exotic bets. Give me a longer, 590 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 1: longer shot. I'm not gonna say you need to give 591 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: me thirty to one here. Give me double digits that 592 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: you think has a really good chance to hit the 593 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: board and make your exotic worthwhile. Well. I think that 594 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: George Weaver, runner of a coma, who was all over 595 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 1: the racetrack in the Bluegrass. I get it, he's still 596 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: very very green, but I think he's very very talented. 597 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: Um he was looking all over. If you go back 598 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: and you watch a look at that replay. His head 599 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: was cocked towards the side because he was looking at 600 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: the grand stand. He was all over the place. If 601 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: he can like sell himself down, I think he's shot 602 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 1: that can maybe run third or fourth. And then I've 603 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: mentioned this to you long range Toddy, just because if 604 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 1: if they go fast up front, he's got a good 605 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: lay kick and maybe he can suck up second third fource. 606 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 1: I don't think he can win the race because the 607 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 1: problem that you have is you have a horse named 608 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: Maximum Security for Jason's service, who's five to one, who 609 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: I don't like. It's probably gonna land on the front 610 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: end unless Mike decided to send Omaha Beach. So I 611 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 1: think there'll be a quicker pace than people think. Inc 612 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: and long Wage till you can maybe get in the 613 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: try or so. But of all the favorites, I think 614 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: if you're gonna play a prop, if you're a proper letter, 615 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: I think you just prop play against Maximum Security. Yeah, 616 00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: I would agree with you. I don't think Maximum Security 617 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: is going to be a real factor in this race 618 00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: other than potentially setting the early pace. UM. I think 619 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 1: Tacitus attend to one is a good bet to hit 620 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 1: the board. I also like buy my standards. I think 621 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 1: that horse horse he's training really well. Um, I think 622 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: he's got a shot to hit the board as well. 623 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: Maybe Tax. Yeah, Tax is sort of a grinder, you 624 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,600 Speaker 1: know what. I like tax for. I think Tax might 625 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: be I think he might be a belm on horse. 626 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: I think he wants to run all day long. Black. 627 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,360 Speaker 1: And by the way, you gotta tune into our show 628 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: from nine eleven because we are gonna have Eddie old 629 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: Check on Friday, who's gonna be covering the derby. And 630 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna have Bafford on either Friday or Monday to 631 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: give us a pulse on his horses too. So um. 632 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: And also clocker Mike Wells who clocks the horses. That 633 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 1: child all downs. He'll tell you who's doing well. Um. 634 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: He gave me Barbara a couple of years ago. I'll 635 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 1: have another very very sharp clocker. All right. So that's 636 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 1: our take on the Kentucky Derby Saturday. If you're gonna 637 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: be at Belmont Park, let us know we'll be around. Uh, 638 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:13,840 Speaker 1: we'd love to see you.

Um, you know 642 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,839 Speaker 1: Mike Smith personally, why don't you tell everyone how you 643 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: came to meet the Hall of Fame winning jockey, Hall 644 00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: of Fame Triple Crown winning jockey. Uh so, I'm living 645 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,359 Speaker 1: in I just got called up by the Dodgers. Um, 646 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:40,880 Speaker 1: and I was up and down from two thousand and 647 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:45,400 Speaker 1: I finally got some planet in two thousand one. Um. 648 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,880 Speaker 1: And we were working out at a gym.
