Apparently the pool is 22 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: getting to exited out as we go along. 23 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 3: Well, we already had a couple of non non starters. 24 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 4: As it were, was like they were going into I 25 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 4: don't know, the Belmont Steakes and never actually got into 26 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 4: the gate. 27 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: And sure up no, but very late scratches, we got 28 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,119 Speaker 1: news within the last hour of a couple of people 29 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: who will not be. 30 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 3: The next head coach of the Knicks. 31 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 1: And not just people that like Jay Wright like oh hey, 32 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: I'm retired. No, people the Knicks went after and they 33 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: were told now. But as we get set for Game 34 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: three of the NBA Finals tomorrow, there are two big 35 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: things coming off of the first two games. 36 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 3: That it hits me. 37 00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: Watching what we've seen unfold. A series breaks down for 38 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: me with with one thing, and I can tell you 39 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: with one thing, they stink one thing. 40 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 3: Ratings, no ratings. 41 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: Yes, we've seen SGA play really good in both games. Right, 42 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: We've seen Tyre's Halliburton play well enough in one game. Right. 43 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: We've seen the Oklahoma City bench play well in one game. 44 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 1: We've seen the Pacers hit threes in one game. We've 45 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: seen a lot of different things. Right now the series 46 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: headed back to India, and there's many ways that you know, 47 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: you've seen a lot of experts breaking down. Hey, this 48 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 1: is what could happen. This is what could happen. This 49 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: is how so and so can win. This is out 50 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: so and so can win. But for me, it goes 51 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: like this, and it's pretty simple. If the Pacers can 52 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: hit their threes at a forty to forty five percent 53 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: clip in three more games, they'll win the title. Like that, 54 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: everything else can be overcome. They've they've shown they can 55 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: overcome a big SGA game. The Thunder have shown we 56 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: can come back after losing home court advantage and shut 57 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: down the page what they like to do offensively, Right, 58 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:03,399 Speaker 1: We've shown you that our bench can play really well. 59 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 1: Look at the game Alex Caruso ad the other night. 60 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: But hey, pacers are going home. Benches play great at home. Matherren, 61 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: I'm sure is gonna score forty points in eight minutes 62 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 1: tomorrow night. 63 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 3: Now, that was just against the Knicks. 64 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: You have seen both teams be able to play at 65 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: their best and other teams be able to counteract what 66 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: they do. But for me, that's what it comes down to, 67 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 1: because the Pacers, the biggest advantage they have over all 68 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 1: the teams they have played they have beaten, is that 69 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: every guy on the court can hit a three at 70 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: any time. Every guy can hit a three. They have 71 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: bigs that can hit threes. They can they can maneuver 72 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: down low, guys can kick out. Miles Turner can hit threes. 73 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 3: Right. 74 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: You have guys that can hit threes at a pretty 75 00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: good clip throughout the game. This is why they're able 76 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: to come back in the series. When they came back 77 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: and beat the Bucks in the first round, beating the 78 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: Knicks in that big game one come back, Why when 79 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: they're down twenty, down nine with fifty seconds left to go, 80 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: if we hit our threes, we're gonna be able to 81 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: come back on you. And it's that simple. If three 82 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: more times they can hit their threes forty two, forty 83 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: five percent in the game, they're gonna win. And and 84 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: no matter what the Thunder do, it's not gonna be enough, 85 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: because those are gonna be games where Halliburton's gonna be 86 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: able to get to the rack and be able to 87 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: kick it out to guys that can hit threes. Maybe 88 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: it's Nie Smith hitting threes, maybe it's nem Hard hitting threes. 89 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter. Mean McConnell hits some threes, But if they 90 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: hit their threes at that kind of a clip. They 91 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: win the NBA title, they can do it three more time. 92 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: They can go forty two forty five percent. Forty two 93 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: three more times, they win the title. Oklahoma City can 94 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 1: overcome back. Conversely, if they can't do that three more times, 95 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: then the Thunder are gonna win the title. They can 96 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: do it two more times. But guess what, They're gonna 97 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: lose every game they don't hit their threes. Right, It's 98 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: very simple, but that's really how it breaks down for 99 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: the pick. Go and look at their games as postseason. 100 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: When they hit their threes, they win. When they don't, 101 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: they lose. 102 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 3: And that's how. 103 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: They knowing they can have their time where they can 104 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 1: hit threes because we saw that in the first game 105 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: against the Thunder, it's how they're able to come back 106 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: knowing they can do it, that's the game for me. 107 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 1: Three more times at forty forty five percent, they win 108 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: the series. If not, the Thunder win the series. 109 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, we go back to. 110 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 4: That fourth quarter where you had just the insane run 111 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 4: of shooting six of nine from three point range, whereas 112 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 4: the Thunder went zero for five and didn't hit a 113 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,360 Speaker 4: shot outside of the paint in that entire fourth quarter. 114 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,240 Speaker 3: The likelihood of that very low, Yeah, very low. 115 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 4: But but you're saying there's a chance, right one of 116 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 4: the great pieces. 117 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 3: And that's it right now. 118 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,679 Speaker 4: It's it's theory testing and trying to figure out where 119 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 4: that sweet spot is of of opening the portal, having 120 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 4: nothing to do with college basketball in the moment, just. 121 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,840 Speaker 1: Opening that picturing Wong opening the that's I thought, that's 122 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: what I'm trying to do it and get. 123 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 3: You a game portal. I think we're in the era 124 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 3: of peak television. 125 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: No, okay, if I could get Wong into the equation, 126 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: we'll get higher ratings. Okay, okay, all right, all right, 127 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: because you're also doing the thing where you're sitting there, 128 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 1: twitchy like strange and holding up one figure. 129 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 3: This is the way this happened. 130 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: Caliburton dribbling down the court, Loong opens the portally, he 131 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: goes right through the portally, close it up. 132 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 4: But this is this is how it has to happen. 133 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,239 Speaker 4: There's one way, all right, insane shooting to that level 134 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 4: forty six percent for the game from three point range 135 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 4: for the Pacers in game one, game two thirty five percent. 136 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 4: You had the insane turnover total in game one mostly 137 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,239 Speaker 4: the first half. Second half, it got cleaned up a bunch, 138 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 4: which is how you make the run and keep it close. 139 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 4: The transition defense was really the tail of the tape 140 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 4: for me shooting. We know they can get the spurtability. 141 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 4: We've watched it all year to your point, and something 142 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 4: we've talked about with a lot with Rick Buker is 143 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 4: the floor off of those starters and then you add 144 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 4: in Obi top and along the way in terms of 145 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 4: thirty three thirty four percent being the floor for those 146 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 4: guys as three point shooters, whereas the Thunder don't have 147 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 4: that same level of depth. You've got guys like Dort 148 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 4: Sga at times, Chet can step out, but they're not 149 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 4: to that level of shooting acuity that we see from 150 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 4: the Pacers one through six, one through seven. So yeah, 151 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 4: that opens it up. The curiosity is can you can 152 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 4: you play as they have because they play fast, which 153 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 4: leads to some of these transition turnovers and chaos, but 154 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 4: can you cover it up against this OKAC squad Because 155 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 4: you saw Sga in game two, We're leaving no doubt 156 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 4: I'm going to the rat. 157 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, like we're not. We're not playing fool like 158 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 3: we're not playing this game an, No, we're just taking 159 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 3: care of. 160 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: I might shoot forty free throws the night, doesn't matter. 161 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: It's what I'm doing. But that becomes the pace, right 162 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: you slow it down. You don't want to necessarily run 163 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: with the pacers because that's how they played all season long, 164 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: and your close out defenders have to commit like they 165 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: did the first Yeah, look, they still shot nearly thirty 166 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: six percent for the game from three point range. 167 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 4: But it was a blowout right that night. What was it, 168 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 4: nineteen to two, nineteen to four, whatever that run was. 169 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 4: They never recovered from that, and even with a little 170 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 4: run late in the game, they were far too far 171 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 4: in arrears to try to make up that ground again. 172 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 4: So for Game three, you think the bench plays better 173 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 4: right home in Indiana, You think you get a little 174 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 4: bit of juice there. I still call it in six, 175 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,559 Speaker 4: but I like that we're having discussions about how they 176 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 4: win as opposed to pre series what it was. I 177 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 4: don't know, sweep man, how many people said sweep like 178 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 4: that was the consensus, right, we talked about it. You know, 179 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,199 Speaker 4: in terms of betting odds, there weren't particularly long odds 180 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 4: for a four to oho sweep now, speaking of how 181 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 4: this series is going to go, right now, I picked 182 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 4: the thunder and five. After seeing the first two games, 183 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 4: I now I now firmly believe this series is going seven, 184 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 4: and I'm going thunder and seven because what I've got 185 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 4: the memo from Adamson, what I've said, Yeah, I know, 186 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 4: I know, Scott fALS got the script. 187 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: Scott far Is doing game three, in game five, Tony 188 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: Brothers doing game. 189 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 3: Four, Aaron Foster deliver it by hand. Yes, yeah, you 190 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 3: get right to my house and here you go. 191 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: Man. But watching watching these first two games, right, okay, 192 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: what do we see for the next few games, they'll 193 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: probably split in Indiana. 194 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 3: Indiana will have one game where they. 195 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: Hit their threes and Oklahoma City will have one game 196 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: where they adjust and SGA will have a big game 197 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: and they will he will get enough from chet or 198 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: or Caruso off the bench. Both these teams are really good. 199 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: I have not seen anything from either team that tells 200 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: me one of them can throw the hammer down. And 201 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: now after two games, yeah we got you. For the 202 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: next three or four games, we're gonna win this thing 203 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: pretty comfortably. Right, Like I've seen, I've seen Oklahoma City 204 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 1: getting all around efforts from SGA the entire playoffs. They 205 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: went seven games against against the Denver Nuggets, Right, that's 206 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: gonna happen. I don't know that either team can impose 207 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: their will against the other one, because what can happen 208 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 1: in one game? The other team can come back. Right 209 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 1: if they hit the Pacers at their threes in game 210 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: three and they win, guess what, Okay, the Thunder well 211 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: adjustin game four? They will probably win that game, and 212 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 1: then it's gonna go home, home, home, in the Thunder 213 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 1: will win because they have Game seven at home. Like, 214 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: there's nothing to tell and I know that the first 215 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: game was this big comeback by the Pacers and and Halliburton, 216 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,839 Speaker 1: it's a shot. If not, it's too nothing Thunder and 217 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: the Thunder really let one escape. But it shows you 218 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,959 Speaker 1: that the Pacers can come back in a hostile environment 219 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,319 Speaker 1: win this game. They're juiced up by the crowd now 220 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 1: that they're gonna have back back at home. I their 221 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: bench will play better in the home obviously, but we 222 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: saw Oklahoma City's bench play well at home. Again, if 223 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: I saw that there was something from either team that 224 00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: would say, Okay, they're gonna start doing this and Oklahoma's 225 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: he has no answers for it. But instead it's gonna 226 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: be more this game, we have the advantage. Maybe Siakim 227 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: is hot this game, he's not hot the next game. 228 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: Halliburton plays really well in this game, he doesn't play 229 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: well in the next game. SGA scores thirty eight points, 230 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: but it's not enough in one game. But he's thirty 231 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 1: eight and twelve and ten in the next game, and 232 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: that's enough. Like that's how I see this series going, 233 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: because each team can have their moments and it's going 234 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: to be a game by game punch counter punch. So 235 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: if I go split splitting these next two, Okay, we 236 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: got we're tied to to Thunder win game five at home, 237 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: Pacers win. 238 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 3: Game six, Thunder win game seven. Look at you. 239 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: That's where I'm going. Okay, I'm gonna stand six. Just 240 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: question whether the Pacers take Tomorrow or Friday. I'm gonna 241 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 1: say they win Friday. You cut up, and then we 242 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: get our thunder. We have the thunder runch j in 243 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: the words of Garth Brooks. Then the Thunder rolls. 244 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 3: The thunder rolls. Yeah, it's look they got. 245 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 4: Thirty struck just like ac DC DJ nice the the Pacers. 246 00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 4: They did have thirty nine points from the bend. 247 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: Going back to game one, Halliburton has as many points 248 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: through two games as Alex Caruso. 249 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 3: Just one of those fun little fun with numbers. 250 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: And will they have too much love to perform well 251 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: in Indiana? 252 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 3: Don't they need hate? 253 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: Dj Clearly there can't be enough love and thunder in 254 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 1: Indiana at once. That's like the NBA Finals. Nobody saw 255 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: that one. No, I think people are oh no, maybe 256 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: you're right now. 257 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 4: I think that was the one where was a bridge 258 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 4: too far, hey, which is why he's not coming back 259 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 4: for whatever. 260 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 1: Notice how Harry Styles has not been mentioned about being 261 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: in the MCU at all. 262 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 4: I need Harry Styles that we've been clamoring for him. 263 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 4: We need to go to a show.

He told us 491 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: last night, Hey, they knew they weren't getting Udoka, so 492 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 1: they've moved on and so now here it is where 493 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: they here's these three names and made me now it's 494 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 1: not Jason Kidd. 495 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 3: Now. 496 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: First thing I want to say is this is I 497 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,880 Speaker 1: don't want to break my unpat myself on the back. 498 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 3: But last week. 499 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: What did I tell you we're gonna get a new 500 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 1: name every day for the next not that they're interviewed 501 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: and talked to, but a new name every day. Right, 502 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:15,199 Speaker 1: what's happened last week? We've gotten Jay Wright, We've gotten 503 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: Rick Patino, we got Jason Kidd, now, we got in Hudoka, 504 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: and we got Chris Finch. We've had just about a 505 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 1: name everybody to day. But we have the last six 506 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: days we got five names. That's a pretty good I told. 507 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 3: You, that's why we prosper gave you six. Yeah. 508 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 1: That's no, no, no, that's not that is not an 509 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:33,199 Speaker 1: official name. That is not any name that's been mentioned. 510 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:38,359 Speaker 1: His name has not been mentioned. And according to a whispers, no, guys, no, 511 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:41,719 Speaker 1: there's no sources that say that. No, nobody's got sources 512 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: that say that guy. No, nobody has sources. Don't stop 513 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:48,120 Speaker 1: putting that out there. Oh, listen to Fox, they talk 514 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: about me all the time. All right, So, okay, I 515 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: told you, But this is where things get weird because 516 00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 1: it's a fine line to from be a destination to 517 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 1: being an embarrassment. Right, Like when big teams have coaching openings, 518 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 1: you normally hear one name, right, Beno Cook would always 519 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: tell me goes when Notre Dame has an opening, you 520 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: hear one name. There's never another name. You just hear 521 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: one name, and he's the coach. That's what you get. 522 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: One name. 523 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 3: Oh but I said, but Pino, Jason, how many what 524 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 3: did I just say? One? How many numbers did I 525 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 3: just say to you? One? One name? Right? One name? 526 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 3: It's what I said. 527 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 4: You open that door. I'm gonna walk down the avenue 528 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 4: and then we're gonna turn around. We're gonna finish that 529 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 4: other time. I would really give anything to sit down 530 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 4: with Bino Cook and go, all right, explain this college 531 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 4: world to me. 532 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: Now, oh, Jason, everybody's got jobs. Everybody just got some 533 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: people have jobs. Now you don't have to. You know, 534 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 1: when I came up, they would pay people under the table. 535 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,639 Speaker 1: I would work a whole saturday in a convenience store 536 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: and I would go in and Joe would say, here's 537 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 1: your money for today. 538 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 3: I put it in my pocket. That's right, walk out. 539 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:02,919 Speaker 2: Now. 540 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: This is the equivalent of college players saying, hey, I 541 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 1: can now just get a check. I don't need to 542 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: walk in and get paid under the table like that's 543 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: that's kind of how he would explain it. 544 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 4: Yeah, today's wrinkle was the uh, well, we're trying to 545 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 4: keep it from bankruptcy. But let's get back to your problem. 546 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 4: We'll get to those other problems. 547 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 1: You wait, college football's not making money, really, and they're 548 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 1: not making money. Where is this? This is a farce. 549 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: It's a farce. College football's not making money. Yes, college 550 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:35,120 Speaker 1: football is going bankrupt, so they had to do this, yes, exactly. Look, 551 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: it gets embarrassing because now the Knicks, I said, they're 552 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: going to enjoy the status of being the destination graigs. 553 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: Now the Knicks are a destination all these big names. Hey, 554 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 1: we gonna get anybody we want to. We're swinging big guys. 555 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 5: Hey. 556 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: But very quickly you go from we're a destination to 557 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: nobody wants the job. And it doesn't matter that these 558 00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 1: are teams that have told the Knicks no. Kicks consider 559 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 1: and say, well, they told us no, no, no, no, 560 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: because if either Udoka or Jason Kidd or Chris Finch 561 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: told their team, hey, I want that job, guess what 562 00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,120 Speaker 1: you're getting that coach, because if they say they want 563 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:19,360 Speaker 1: the job, they're not bringing them back. If Chris Finch 564 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 1: says I want that job. I want the Knixt job. 565 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 1: I want that job. Man Minnesota can't bring him back. 566 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: So now all there is is negotiating whatever the exit 567 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: fee is going to be, whatever the compensation is going 568 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: to be, the same thing for Udoka, same thing for 569 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: Jason Kidd. If they said that's the job I want, 570 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 1: then guess what, Hey, you can't come back and coach 571 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: that team that the team is not gonna let you, 572 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: the players aren't gonna let you, the fans, you can't 573 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 1: do it. You lit that bridge on fire. And since 574 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,360 Speaker 1: they can't bring you back, Okay, we'll figure out if 575 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 1: you're not gonna coach us, we'll figure out compensation. So basically, 576 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,400 Speaker 1: even though the Knicks haven't asked, they've already basically been 577 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,439 Speaker 1: told no two potentially by three names. 578 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 3: Jay Wright's name was out there. 579 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 1: He said, I have no interest in coaching the next Okay, 580 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: Rick Patino, I have no Now these aren't people the 581 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 1: Knicks talk to. But again, these are a couple of 582 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: names you're throwing out there. So so far, all these 583 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: names that have been mentioned with the job from the 584 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: very beginning, the Knicks now basically are oh for all 585 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: of them now obviously, right and Patina were two names 586 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 1: at the bottom because these aren't names that have been 587 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 1: linked with them. They're just names that people have come 588 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 1: up with. But Finch, Doka and now pretty soon it 589 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: would be Jason Kidd. That's oh for three for the Knicks. 590 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: Now there are three great guys, right, three great coaches. 591 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: But no, stop, everybody is better than Doc Rivers. Okay, 592 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 1: it's everybody else and then Doc Rivers right down to 593 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,639 Speaker 1: the bottom and well and then Tibbs because we're not 594 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,440 Speaker 1: gonna I don't. Would I rather bring Tims boy bringing 595 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 1: TIBs back or Doc Riversim I bring Tims back? So 596 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: now the Knicks way JJ REDDICKJJ my. 597 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,879 Speaker 3: Guy, JJ reddick. Uh. 598 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: Now it's getting the point where it's going to get 599 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: embarrassing for the Knicks, and it gets embarrassing for free 600 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 1: agents who say they couldn't get the guy they wanted. 601 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: Do they like this coach? Do I like playing for 602 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,479 Speaker 1: this coach? Do they have a vision? Do they know 603 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,479 Speaker 1: what they're doing? Because while they had to get rid 604 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 1: of TIBs, because as we see stories that have come out, 605 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: I told you, look the Knicks, they don't seem heartbroken 606 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: over losing Tips they're saying all the right things, but 607 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:11,280 Speaker 1: we told you the night. 608 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 3: They got fired. 609 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 1: I've not seen anything from Jalen Brunson, nothing from Karl 610 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: Anthony Towns. Josh Hart said, hey, thanks for everything, TIBs, 611 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 1: but no overwhelming boy, what are we doing now? Of course, 612 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: and now we get the stories. In the last couple 613 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,360 Speaker 1: of days, players were upset in end of season meetings. 614 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: Leon Rose was there, James Dolan was there. All right, 615 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 1: we gotta make them. 616 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 4: We gotta Rose salty a bit about the roster he 617 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 4: assembled not being utilized to its greatest potential, right in 618 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 4: terms of minutes played, rotational, et cetera. 619 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: We have to move on. So I get you have 620 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 1: to move on, But now what's their plan? Clearly there 621 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: isn't a plan other than let's talk to big names. 622 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: So now in one day it's gone from boy, who 623 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: are the Knicks gonna get? 624 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 3: And you're you're rubbing your hands there go boy, who 625 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 3: is it gonna be? Kid? 626 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: Now it's like, okay, now three names are basically off 627 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: the table. And now it gets because the more time 628 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: that goes on, it gets more embarrassing. The more names 629 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: the Knicks go over on, so this can get and 630 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 1: it's already getting embarrassing right fire, Like last. 631 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 3: Hour is like this could be getting no nut an 632 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 3: hour later. 633 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: It's already getting embarrassing because if the Jason kid thing 634 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: goes the way it is, I don't know what else 635 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 1: to say now that the knicks are going over. 636 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 4: But the other part is there are no rules to 637 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 4: this nick search that you have to go to someone 638 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 4: who's already married, because that's all you're doing. You're going 639 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 4: from when got hits, that's where you got a job. 640 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 4: But that's where the best people are. Like I'm saying 641 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 4: this is say long, if you're married, you know stuff 642 00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:32,840 Speaker 4: about relationships. If you're single, maybe you don't know anything 643 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 4: about relationships. That's why I'm going to the married person first. 644 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 4: It's all theoretical, but the fact I wonder what the world. 645 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 1: Will be like if that actually happened in the world. 646 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: Like I want to get married, and you know I 647 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: could marry you, but I want to see if someone 648 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 1: wants to get divorced and marry me first. Well, I mean, 649 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: I'm sure that's happened. It's nothing else. We could create 650 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 1: a game.
