This is 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:12,320 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Sunday, and we are in the Fox Sports 4 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: Radio studios keeping our eye right now on the fifth 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:22,640 Speaker 1: and deciding set, Yonnick Center Carlos Alcarez right now battling 6 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,599 Speaker 1: for the French Open title. Center won the first two sets. 7 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: Acarez comes back to win the next two sets, and 8 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: right now Acarez up two to one in the fifth set. 9 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,200 Speaker 1: But this is going to go down to the wire, now, VJ. 10 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 1: VJ and I have been We've known each other for 11 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: years and we you know now obviously we've been doing 12 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:45,560 Speaker 1: our Sunday show week after week after week. And here's 13 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:50,239 Speaker 1: what I know about VJ. He's very calculating when it 14 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: comes to texting me. There are times when he will 15 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: text a volume of things that he wants to get 16 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: off his chest. But to me, he says more when 17 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: he doesn't text me when I expect a text. So 18 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 1: let's go back to Game one of the NBA Finals 19 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,839 Speaker 1: on Thursday. So this is how this worked for me. VG. 20 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: I was at the Dodgers game that day working on TV, 21 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: and so by the time you can imagine the traffic. 22 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: You know, by the time I got back to my 23 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: house and turned on the basketball game, it was late 24 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: in the third quarter, and okay, see he was up 25 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: like ten, and you know, things are looking pretty much 26 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: the way I thought it was gonna look. And so 27 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 1: I get there and I hear my daughter is gonna 28 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,479 Speaker 1: be bringing dinner home. Okay, so I'm waiting for her 29 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: to arrive with dinner. So it's fourth quarter now and 30 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: the lead is at eight. I think Indiana just and 31 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: I'm thinking to myself, you know, I can't wait to 32 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: talk to VG on Sunday because what I'm gonna say is, 33 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna give you this. I'm gonna give 34 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: you this about Indiana. Indiana's got fired. I'm gonna I'm 35 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna give give it to the They got fired. 36 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: They're not going to just roll over the go to 37 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: get some fights. So the leads eight, and my daughter 38 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: comes in and she goes, we got dinner. So I 39 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: just walk away from the TV and I sit down 40 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 1: to eat dinner. So I go back to the TV. 41 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: The game is over, so I pick up my phone 42 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: and I'm like what. I then go back to the 43 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: TV rewind and relived the end of that game, of 44 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: which the Pacers led for exactly point three seconds of 45 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: the game. Yep, they led point three seconds of the game. 46 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: So here's where I stand as we go into game two, 47 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: and we're gonna have a lot about this game today 48 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: in my head because I've seen this for so many years. 49 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: There are unexplained teams that win championships. The eighty eight 50 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: Dodgers were a classic example, Like, there was no way 51 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: a Dodger tam coming out back to back seventy three 52 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: and eighty nine seasons, and by the way, they had 53 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: a losing season the year after, not only wins the 54 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 1: World Series, but they beat two of the best teams 55 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: of that era, the Mets and the A's to do it. 56 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: And you're like, why you had Kirk Gibson, have you 57 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 1: know this inspirational year? And then you had this oral 58 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,799 Speaker 1: Hersheizer fifty nine straight consecutive scoreless innings his dominates. The 59 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: second best pitcher was a rookie Tim Belcher. They had 60 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: no other players in their lineup. Of note, there was 61 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: nothing about this team that would explain them winning any 62 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 1: games in the postseason, much less winning the World series. 63 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: And so I'm looking at this Pacers team and I'm like, 64 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: what am I missing here? Why are the Pacers seemingly 65 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: a team of destiny? Right now, we've talked about a VJ. 66 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: This is a team of rejects. This is a team 67 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: made up of players who played elsewhere who's franchises even 68 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: though they were good players felt they were expendable, and 69 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: so they had this, you know, sort of this group 70 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: chip on their shoulder. And then they have one of 71 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: the apsol best coaches in the NBA and Rick Carlile. 72 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: That is the only expectation. I am not gonna conceive 73 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: this series to the Pacers, but I will concede this 74 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: something is happening. I mean, there is something going on 75 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 1: with the Indiana Pacers and the basketball gods this year 76 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 1: that I really can't figure out. But I have to 77 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: acknowledge something is going on in Indiana. 78 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 2: Well, there's a more than just something going on Indiana. 79 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 2: You talk about the eighty eight Dodgers team and everything 80 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 2: they have, the overcoming you mentioned Kurt Gibson. Let's not 81 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 2: forget the home run where the man can barely walk 82 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 2: and he hits off with people probably still think maybe 83 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 2: other than Trevor Hoffman, and Mariano Rivard one of the greatest, 84 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 2: if not the greatest closer of all time. And mister 85 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: Dennis Eckersly that had the wildest underhand side arm speed 86 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 2: pitch ever. And then it comes to you know, Randy 87 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 2: Johnson comes along. He's got kind of the same stature 88 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 2: of saying, not the closer, but just a dominant number 89 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 2: one hurler from the bump. So you talk about that 90 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: Dodgers team, I give you another team. It seems a 91 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 2: little bit about Destiny two. You want to go back 92 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: to the four Pistons and you use and my beloved 93 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 2: Detroit Pissons. You the team rejects. So you want to 94 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 2: talk about reject Let's talk about Ben Wallace, who was 95 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 2: multiple Defensive Player of the Year that was shunned off 96 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: from the Wizards. Let's talk about Rip Hamilton, a guy 97 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: who was in college at Yukon, was an All American 98 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 2: and and and you know, stapled his name as a 99 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 2: college legend at Yukon. He got jen send it off 100 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 2: by a few teams. Let's talk about Tayshawn Prince. People 101 00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: thought that was a mistake draft pick, and they thought 102 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 2: that why would you draft Tayshawn Prince. But then if 103 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 2: you remember, after they draft Tayshawn Prince, they had a 104 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 2: chance to get Carmelo Anthony, and people said, why would 105 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 2: you draft Carmelo Anthony? You have Tayshawn Prince. Take this 106 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 2: guy named Darko Millericich and let's see how that works 107 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 2: out for it? How'd that work out for you? 108 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: Guys? 109 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 2: You want to talk about another reject, Let's talk about 110 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 2: mister Jouncey Billups draft picking a draft by the Celtics 111 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 2: after one year, one year, one year, Jensenden around and 112 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: their head coach, former Tar Hill. My guy, mister Larry Brown, 113 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 2: who did take who did take the the seventy six 114 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: or two ANYBA Finals, but was Conna, you know, shunned 115 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 2: off as not a player's coach because him and Ai 116 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 2: kept bumping heads. Right, So you want talk about a 117 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 2: team reject, You want to talk about a team that 118 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 2: was kind of just destined for greatness in the championship. 119 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 2: Let's go with the four Pistons. This team is very 120 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,719 Speaker 2: similar and I mentioned this last Saturday Sunday on our show. 121 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 2: It feels like the four Pistons team because Tyrese Halliburton. 122 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 2: There's your Chauncey Billips, mouse Turner. There there's your Ben Wallace, 123 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 2: and then you have these other three guards. You have Mathurin. 124 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 2: People forget he was on the different Nugget team when 125 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 2: he won the championship, so he's a champion, so he 126 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,600 Speaker 2: knows what this feels like. And I believe, if I'm 127 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 2: not mistaken, he's the only player in this series other 128 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 2: than Sam. 129 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: Are you gonna say is Rashid? 130 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 2: He can either be Rashid or tay Shan Prince, take 131 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 2: your pick, and then you can just fill out everything else. 132 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 2: And then you have this Rick Carlisle, guy who has 133 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 2: won a championship, who is coach in the championship and 134 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 2: for ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls out there, not 135 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 2: a breast with his career. 136 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: Has an NBA. 137 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 2: Championship with the Boston celt six as a player, so 138 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 2: he's been in plenty of deep finals, deep playoff runs 139 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 2: his entire NBA life, just not as a coach as 140 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:03,280 Speaker 2: a player. And I mentioned this last week about this team. 141 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 2: They have a lot of different guys that can defend 142 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 2: a lot of different positions because OKC is so deep. 143 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 2: Tyreese Halliburton, I tweeted, we have got to stop acting 144 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 2: like this guy is not a superstar. Something that really 145 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 2: irked me leading into the final Steed was all this 146 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: talk about how certain people are gonna watch. No one's 147 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 2: gonna watch, no one's gonna diss. This is gonna suck. 148 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 2: All we do is complain over the last six or 149 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 2: seven years about the Warriors and Lebron. We got tired 150 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 2: of seeing it. We got tired of seeing it. We 151 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 2: got tired of seeing it. You people know I'm telling 152 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: the truth right now. And when the basketball guys in 153 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 2: the league actually give us two young stars for us 154 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 2: to now usher in a new era. Lebron's not winning 155 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 2: no more rings, guys, Steph Curry's not winning any more rings. 156 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant's not winning any more rings. That's that era. 157 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 2: They're done. They'll still get talked about because they have 158 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 2: big names, they have great careers, their icons, their legers, 159 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,559 Speaker 2: their top whatever in NBA history, but they're not gonna 160 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 2: win anymore. This young group of guys coming through and 161 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 2: Edwards K cunneyham Sga Tyrese Haliburton not to mention the 162 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 2: guys an Olympic gold medalist. So there's some people that 163 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: know basketball that thought this man was good enough to 164 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: be the final twelve to goal to pay us to 165 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: represent the United States of America. 166 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 1: All Right, a little bit later on, I'm gonna throw 167 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: something at to that we talked a little bit about yesterday. 168 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep it fresh for you on this. Here 169 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 1: were a couple of things. By the way, I just 170 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: loved what Carlisle post game. So the Pacers had nineteen 171 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: turnovers in the first half. In the first half, I 172 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: think it was twenty, he had nineteen. I'll play five 173 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 1: and think about this. You are on the road against 174 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 1: a sixty eight win team, yes, and you are negative 175 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: eighteen and turnover margin twenty four to six. 176 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 2: Can't take care ofable on the road, can't take veritable, 177 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 2: and you. 178 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 1: Still win the game. So even Carlisle goes, so we 179 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 1: had nineteen turnovers in the first half, he goes, I 180 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: that's got to be a record, right, folks, I mean, 181 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: sir throwing and not talking about his own That's got 182 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 1: to be a record. Now do you think any team 183 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 1: in the NBA finals histories had nineteen turnovers and a half? 184 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: So he's and he's doing with a straight face. Right, 185 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: of course you can do that after you win the game. 186 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 1: And then he went into how great Okay's defenses, and 187 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: I'm stopping. I'm thinking, Okay, now he's really doing the 188 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: butter up job, because the bottom line is OKC there 189 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: were a lot of elements that led to it losing. 190 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: What did we talk about with OKAC going into this matchup? 191 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: They have more depth, right, they have more depth. Ben 192 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,599 Speaker 1: scoring thirty nine to twenty eight Indiana. How about this? 193 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 1: All five starters for Indiana double digits. They spread the wealth. 194 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,839 Speaker 1: SGA forced to carry the low because ched Holmgren was 195 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 1: a complete no show and your so called All NBA 196 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 1: player Jalen Williams was six and nineteen from the field. 197 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: The worst stat in that game for OKC was thirty 198 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 1: field goal attents for SGA. Yeah, thirty eight points, But 199 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 1: that's not their game where he has to take every 200 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: shot because the other guys can't knock down a shot, right, 201 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 1: And so you know, and talking about okc's defense, here's 202 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: what I saw late in that game. Indiana had looks 203 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: and they knocked them down. So they were getting looks 204 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: and now they're knocking down those shots. I mean, they're 205 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: shooting well over forty percent threes, and that's the difference 206 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: in that game. So I like I think about the 207 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,959 Speaker 1: Indiana Pacers, think about this franchise or second VJ. So 208 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 1: they are an original ABA franchise in nineteen sixty seven, 209 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 1: they were only in the nine year history of the ABA, 210 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 1: there were only two franchises that had the same name, 211 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:36,439 Speaker 1: same city all nine years. One was the Pacers, the 212 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 1: other was the Kentucky Colonels, who did not make the 213 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: cut when they merged into the NBA. The Pacers were 214 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: the best team of the ABA. They won three championships, 215 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,719 Speaker 1: they were in the ABA finals two other times, and 216 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: they've been a complete zero when you think about it. 217 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: They've never been terrible, but they've just been that middle 218 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: of the road franchise pretty much for their entire existence 219 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: in the NBA. So I'm still trying to figure out 220 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: why are the basketball gods now deciding it's their time? There? 221 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: Is it their time? Is this gonna be like oh 222 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: one where Alan Iverson goes off at Staples Center just 223 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 1: to step over on tylu I had a front of mine, 224 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 1: hated the Lakers. He called me right after that. He 225 00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: goes Philadelphia's gonna win that series. My retort was they 226 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: won't win another game. He goes, will you talking about 227 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 1: They'll have games three, four, and five in Philly. I go, 228 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: Lakers sweep and they did. So we still don't know. 229 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,839 Speaker 1: Was this again an aberration? We saw what happened with 230 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 1: Denver in that opening game against Oka. See a very 231 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: similar comeback in that game. Had a game two Look 232 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: what was it? Forty plus point blowout for OKC. All right, 233 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: we're gonna break it all down. We got a lot 234 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 1: to talk about today. I got a lot of NFL 235 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 1: news again.

Like last week, he 322 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,720 Speaker 1: was being touted as the second coming to Michael Jordan, 323 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: who obviously was like the ultimate guy in that respect. 324 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: So who would you say?

Ai it was organic, Like remember they 330 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 2: put a dress code in the NBA because of AI. 331 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 2: God started wearing corn rows and getting the tats, wearing 332 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 2: the sleeve on the arm, the fingerband. AI started all 333 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 2: of that like Jordan's started. Jordans literally took a knee 334 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 2: brace and pulled it down to his calf. He took 335 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 2: the wristband and pulled it up to his his form 336 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 2: Deon Sanders took the headband and pulled it around his neck. 337 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 2: That's an aura that you just create because when you 338 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 2: walk into a room, people feel you. 339 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 1: Right, you can't be annoyed cool right, It's like it's 340 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: like a nickname for me. 341 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 2: You can't give yourself. It's just why I do that 342 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 2: all the time. I just like being the clown. I'm 343 00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 2: a stand up comedian twenty five years old. 344 00:16:58,000 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: I just like that one. The one case of great 345 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 1: aura that got stomped on and removed by the league. Though. 346 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 5: Lebron James when he wore that black face mask when 347 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 5: he was with the Heat, it was like the first 348 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 5: one to wear the black best I know, but it 349 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 5: was well, it was a lot of the guys were 350 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 5: in clear ones before that. He wore it like Matt 351 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 5: Black and I think the NBA after those couple of 352 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 5: games he had it, came out and said, oh, this 353 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 5: has actually got to be clear. 354 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:22,960 Speaker 1: But the black one was fantastic. 355 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, it makes you look like Batman. Yeah, I mean 356 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 2: it was, it was, it was. 357 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: It was awesome. 358 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: But it but back to organic and cool. Uh, it 359 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 2: just has to be organic to me. 360 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: I think. 361 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 2: I think Tyrese Halliburn is cool. I honestly do because 362 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 2: he has such a silent swag like Ann Edwards feels 363 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 2: like when he walks into the room. Okay, perfect example. 364 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I can give this to you. Have the 365 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 2: video on my phone. I'm covering the Lakers in Minnesota 366 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 2: Timberwolf series. You can hear Ant from the locker room. 367 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 2: We're all in the press room. Wait, and I'm sitting 368 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 2: in the front row because I've never got a chance 369 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 2: to talk to them. I've talked to other Minnesota players, 370 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 2: but the last few games I've done, he didn't come 371 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 2: to the podium. So, okay, Ant's coming to the podium. 372 00:17:58,240 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: Boom. 373 00:17:58,480 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 2: I want to get up front to get a question 374 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 2: in any But you can hear Aunt talking in the 375 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 2: back and shouting and saying certain things to let us 376 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 2: know he was on his way, that he was coming. 377 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 2: Julius Randall walks in quietly, Rudy Gobert walks in quietly. 378 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 2: But Aunt had to let everybody know that he's coming 379 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 2: around the partition the NBA Finals partitions in the background, 380 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 2: and he's coming in, even to where their PR person 381 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 2: had to tell him, hey, watch your language. He's like, oh, 382 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: I can't say he did f bomb me. I can't 383 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 2: say that, all right. He sits down, he grabs the 384 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 2: bady and goes, guess, can't be myself and just looked 385 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 2: up and we're all trust me. A few people chuckled, 386 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 2: but there were some people in the room that was 387 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 2: just like, come on, dog, like we get it. You're here. 388 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,479 Speaker 2: You just eliminate the Lakers the night they eliminated him. 389 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 2: You would just eliminate the Lakers. 390 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 1: We feel it. 391 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 2: I said this on our show with Martin that we 392 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 2: used to do on Saturday nights. 393 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 1: Here. My thing with Ann is it feels like he's 394 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 1: trying to create a carriage exactly instead of letting it become. 395 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 1: You know why Jordan was cool because Jordan just really 396 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 1: cared about winning. 397 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 2: But his coolness came like the man still has a cologne, 398 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 2: but let me ask you where the original Jordan cologne? 399 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: That's cool? Okay. So he was so in respect and 400 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: no disrespect to Kobe, but Kobe was manufactured. He tried 401 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: to create his own persona right, which doesn't make it cool. 402 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 3: No, right. 403 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 2: I never looked at Kobe as being cool. 404 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,680 Speaker 1: Kobe was a killer, right, because you can't be a 405 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: killer and cool, right, so, and but the point being 406 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: is you need cool to engage with the younger generation. 407 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 1: That's what they're looking for. That is what's going to 408 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: take that next generation of NBA fans to have that 409 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 1: player or players that they identify not just because of 410 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: the game they play, but that's something about them that 411 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: resonates with them. 412 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 2: I would caution you younger people that I would call 413 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 2: you younger people are I get it, but just let 414 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 2: me say this. I would caution the younger generation of 415 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 2: that because if you're looking for cool, then you're not 416 00:19:58,160 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 2: looking at their game. 417 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: If you're looking when you said he looked at he 418 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: thinks Tyree's Halliburton is cool. 419 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 2: I do, and I'm with it, but he has a 420 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 2: say it's natural for him though, right, Tyree's just kind 421 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:13,120 Speaker 2: of has this natural that he has this natural, organic 422 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 2: swag about it. He tweeted after they wanted to go. 423 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 2: He's howd his gold medal and it says when you 424 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 2: were part of a group project and did the least work, right. 425 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 2: He took that on where where where Jason Tatum? 426 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 6: Right? 427 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,440 Speaker 1: There was a big thing about Tatum. Now Tams like, 428 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,200 Speaker 1: why am I sitting Tyree. 429 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 2: Is like, look, man, hey, bruh, look guess what I 430 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 2: still got haha, gold metal. When you were in class, 431 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 2: we all were in a group project at some point 432 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 2: in our life in high school, guys where we didn't 433 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 2: do as much work and the group still got an 434 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 2: A plus, which means you got an A plus two 435 00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 2: and you didn't go on, I didn't get to do 436 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 2: a lot of the work.

Oh yeah, we're just talking 444 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 4: about finals. Yeah, okay, you know what the issue is 445 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 4: because you brought up that you need to fight like 446 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 4: kids want to find that cool or someone with aura. 447 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 1: SGA. 448 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 4: It's very manufactured. Everything he's been doing with his his face, 449 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 4: his personality, the way he talks during his press conferences. 450 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 4: It seems so fake for someone that's my age or younger, 451 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 4: because dude, I don't talk like that. 452 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: If you just to go to a press conference, I 453 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: would talk like Anthony. Let me fight it up, though, 454 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 1: all right, let me let me fire off these names. 455 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: Just rapid fire with Shay and you tell me all whatever. 456 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: Luka Dancic, Yes, yes, Yanna sounds at the company. 457 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 4: Yes, uh, you know what gave it, Mora when he 458 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 4: stared right at Hallie's dad on that didn't say a thing. 459 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 1: That was a huge moment for That was a huge moment. Okay, 460 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: So you've already give me an answer on Shay Gilles, 461 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: Alexander Nikola Jokic. Oh that's a good one. Oh yeah, cool, 462 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: cool as hell. 463 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 2: A guy I didn't even want to go to a 464 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 2: paray because he wants to go back to his country 465 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 2: with his brothers and ride their horses. 466 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 1: He's like, goofy to me. But that's cool, But that's cool. 467 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: I guess Eddie Murphy was goofy. He's to go to Hollywood. Yeah, yeah, 468 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: it was goofy. Yeah all right. I just I'm just 469 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: throwing some of the biggest names out there. But again, 470 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:14,560 Speaker 1: the key here is the NBA desperately needs this next 471 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: generation of fans to make that connection. And again we 472 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 1: can talk about who we're not talking about who is 473 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 1: the best player in the league. I mean, you can 474 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: have many arguments on how you actually come to the 475 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: answer of who is the best player, it's about who 476 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: is resonating right now now again for Tyre's Halliburton, who's 477 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: had game winning shots in all every round of these postseasons. 478 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,399 Speaker 1: I mean, we're going if the Pacers were to win 479 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: the championship this year, people are going to go back 480 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 1: in the twenty twenty five NBA playoffs and say that 481 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: Tyrese Haliburton had literally one of the greatest playoff runs 482 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: in one season that any players had in the history 483 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 1: of the NBA. 484 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 2: Also, so if I can add this with coolness, guys, 485 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 2: this is where this is. This is why I caution 486 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 2: the younger fans, Steve and shame You're you could be cool, 487 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,640 Speaker 2: but it runs out sooner or later if you don't win. 488 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 2: You know why Magic was cool right when he got 489 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 2: to the NBA. He had nothing to do with college, 490 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 2: just the fact that he got to the NBA. 491 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 1: He had all that. 492 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 2: Or he had that smile, which is the greatest smile 493 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 2: in the history of sports, his Magic Johnson's smile. But 494 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 2: he won, and then he won again, and then. 495 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: You know what else was cool? 496 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 2: That he was battling Larry Bird, that glar Bird. 497 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: You can go white boy you know why because he 498 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 1: was who he was, right, He didn't pretend to be 499 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 1: anything other than exactly was. Whether he hated him loved him, 500 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: he was. 501 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 2: It was organic but whatever. But what else did he 502 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:39,479 Speaker 2: do in the eighties? 503 00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 1: He won? He won, Shack. 504 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 2: You know why people love Shack because Shaq won. 505 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: Remember saying, you can't be cool unless you win. Now, 506 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: you gotta win. Listen, Jackson didn't win. 507 00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 2: Let me tell you something, though, Shaq's coolness was falling 508 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 2: off guys until Phil Jackson got here, cause they were 509 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 2: getting swept out here. And Shaq even has done podcasts 510 00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:59,640 Speaker 2: and interviews and admitted this. He felt his aura fading away, 511 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 2: and he knew he had to eventually start winning championships. 512 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 2: And that brought Shack's coolness back into the fall because 513 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 2: Shacks started winning. If you're gonna be cool, fine, but 514 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 2: you don't you don't win, that's that that coolness and 515 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 2: or fades away. 516 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 4: Really, I got a player for you guys right now. 517 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 4: Damian Lillard doesn't win, hasn't won. 518 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: He's not cool.

I 523 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 1: mean he was recognized for what he should be recognized. 524 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: Bring way to the risk, Dame Tootership in the league. 525 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 2: He doesn't win, so sooner or later it's just like 526 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 2: and now he's got to blow the Achilles. We're not 527 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 2: going to see him next year. We won't see him 528 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 2: again till twenty twenty six.

I was, 598 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 1: I'm watching the second game and there's Edmonton. You know, 599 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: you have empty goal, you know, trying to tie it up, 600 00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: and Correy Perry, I'm like, Corey Bear, are you still 601 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: in the league. He won the Cup with the Ducks 602 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: in two thousand and seven as a second year player. 603 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 1: He's in his twentieth year. And then Edmonton ends up 604 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 1: losing and you talk about a place going silent. Game on, 605 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you're on the edge of the sheet, 606 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: goes into double overtime and Marshawn gets the game winning 607 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,639 Speaker 1: goal for the band at Caroline and all of a sudden, 608 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 1: it's just like silence. 609 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 2: And speaking of Marshawn, you gotta think about a guy 610 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 2: that's been with other franchises, major franchises and hockey and 611 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 2: has won like this guy, he knows what he's doing. 612 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 2: And that's the point when you get to this point 613 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 2: of the season in any professional sports, whether it's the 614 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,640 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, whether it's the NBA Final, Stanley Cup Final, 615 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 2: or the World Series, you gotta have guys that have 616 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 2: done this before. That's why the young teams don't win 617 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 2: championships in pro sports. Guys, they just don't. I'm sure 618 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 2: someone can pull one out of there out of their 619 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 2: rear and from you know, won every twenty to twenty 620 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: five years. Fine, but most teams that win championships in. 621 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 1: Pro sports been there, You've done that. 622 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,840 Speaker 2: Gotta have a few guys that's been there and done that, 623 00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,320 Speaker 2: because the guys that haven't been there and done that, 624 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 2: you don't know how they're gonna react until you get 625 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 2: to that point. That's why it took Jordan a minute 626 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 2: to get over the hump. It took the Pistons a 627 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 2: minute to Isaiah Thomas and Dumars to get over the hump. 628 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 2: It took Shack seven eight years to get over the hump. 629 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 2: Like it rarely happens right away when you come into 630 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:25,959 Speaker 2: the league. Tim Duncan had it, but look, you had 631 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 2: David Robinson, who was a decade plus guy in Papovich 632 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 2: coaching who he had already been in the front office 633 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 2: and already had been working with the Spurs. They didn't 634 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,719 Speaker 2: just pull Papovich out of the dry cleaners and say, hey, 635 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 2: you want to be coaching the Spurs. 636 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: He was already there. 637 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 2: So you gotta have these pieces In Marshawn, I'm watching 638 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:43,640 Speaker 2: this guy, and I'm like, man, what a pick up 639 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 2: for the Florida Panthers. And then you and I know 640 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 2: we have JP on lately. We said it weeks ago, 641 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 2: maybe about a month of more ago. If you're not 642 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 2: watching playoff hockey, ladies and gentlemen, you're missing. I'm telling 643 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 2: you you're missing. 644 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: Now. You know the thing about it, people understand this. 645 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: So in the regular season, when you have overtime, it's 646 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: three on three. Right in the playoffs it's five on five. 647 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you got you got a full ice, you 648 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: got everybody and your ear playing for that knockout punch. 649 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,959 Speaker 1: And and I was amazed watching over both teams are 650 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 1: really aggressive. They weren't. They were playing aggressive, which can 651 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 1: leave you open. Ultimately, that's what happens, and then you 652 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: get a breakaway and and the game is over. But 653 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: I almost bet the Bank three the Stanley Cup Finals 654 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 1: going seven. 655 00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 2: Oh no, this is going sound so I call it. 656 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 2: I think oilers in seven, just like I paced as 657 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 2: a seven. But you talk about the aggressiveness that they've 658 00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 2: been playing. You know why you lay that way, Steve, 659 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 2: because you have a net miner that you trust. You 660 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 2: got a net miner and both these and both these squads. 661 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 2: Skinner has been standing on his head. But these are 662 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 2: two great offensive teams. You're going to give up. All 663 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 2: these games are gonna be five to four four three. 664 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 2: Fight didn't the first the first period was three to two. 665 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 2: They will like it was like in the first two 666 00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 2: minutes in Game one. I'm like, oh my goodness, gracious, 667 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 2: let me sit down and get it something. 668 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: I'm with Hibern on the vecha again. Sample it. Okay, folks, 669 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: if you get a chance, it's been ever done it before. 670 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: Keep your eye out. It's a rematch of last year's 671 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: Stanley Cup final. Two great teams. They know what it's 672 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 1: all about. They it's nothing new to them on both sides, 673 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 1: which makes it the incredible series and the world's best 674 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: player hockey players in this series who has never won 675 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: the Cup, and Edmonton trying to become the first Canadian 676 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: based team to win the Cups since the Canadians way 677 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 1: back nineteen ninety three when they beat the La Kings 678 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: and Wing Gretzky. All right, so we got all of 679 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: this going on right now, and again keeping our eye 680 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: right now. Center Alcarez five to five, center is serving. 681 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: He's got ad right now. So again we'll keep an 682 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: eye on this. Quick thought on this golf tournament this 683 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: week coming up at Oakmont. Excited, I mean Scotti Scheffler 684 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: has pulled in sixteen million dollars in the last what 685 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: forty days? Sixteen million dollars in forty days. It's nice. 686 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 2: Let me hold something, Scotti, let me hold something. I mean, 687 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 2: let me hold something time. 688 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: The guy is absolutely on fire right now. But you know, 689 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: I was talking to Tam Byer, he's our resident golf 690 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: real true hardcore expert, and I asked him and he goes, 691 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: I think the shambo again. He goes, I think back 692 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: to back. I guess you're gonna win a third US Open. 693 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,360 Speaker 1: He goes on, well, and then Dan's played Oakmont, He's 694 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 1: actually played back Warts. He has played that to Wars. 695 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 1: It's right outside of Pittsburgh and you know the legendary 696 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: for Johnny Miller's sixty three and seventy three Jack Nicholas's 697 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: first PGA Tour victory. He beat Arnold Palmer in the 698 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 1: playoff to win the US Open at Oakmond back in 699 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: sixty two. I don't know what is your gut feeling here. 700 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,479 Speaker 1: I mean, it would be hard to bet against Scotty 701 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 1: Scheffler right now. 702 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know it would be hard to bet against Scheffler. 703 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 2: But you know, yesterday showed that one ranking thing. And 704 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 2: I thought about yesterday, like you said, you were right 705 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 2: with the way you open the show. If you don't 706 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 2: hear from me, that's saying a whole lot more. I 707 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 2: just knew that you were just like if you haven't 708 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 2: heard from me on the text or you know, a 709 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 2: little calm that that speaks vioumes, because I mean, I'm 710 00:32:58,080 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 2: just waiting. 711 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: As you were talking big time hard about just you know, okay, See, 712 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: pacers would be lucky to win a game, not only 713 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: not say anything, not only that my girl Coco yesterday 714 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: she was taking out the number one And here we 715 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: go with these rankings. The number one ranked world player, 716 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: Bill Sabolenka I had won two of the majors last year. 717 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 2: I got it, but also too, she also lost to 718 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,360 Speaker 2: Coco and the US Open final also too, So Coco's 719 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 2: years because it doesn't. 720 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 1: Matter Slam last year, that's why she was number two. 721 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 2: That's that's fine. But she's but the number one ranked 722 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 2: world player, not just in the French Open and the 723 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 2: world all year long. That ranking still did not cash 724 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 2: in to her first French Open at Roland Girls, so 725 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 2: she shot off the Coco for I watched and I 726 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 2: watched every I watched every second yesterday. 727 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: Why did I went back watching second? I was watching 728 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 1: with my daughter at the end. And look, I mean, 729 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:53,240 Speaker 1: she's phenomenal and obviously she's already secured a spot in 730 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. She has a French she has 731 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 1: a US Open. 732 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 2: Man, she's twenty one years years old, twenty one years 733 00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 2: so spoken, it's so lazy. 734 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 1: But is that's that that? You know? Sabi Anka is 735 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: not to be dismissed. She's got three Grand Slams of 736 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 1: her own and that could be another ribery. So emotional, well, 737 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: she breaks down, man. And by the way, she was 738 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 1: bitching and moaning after the match about the terrible conditions 739 00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 1: and I'm like, okay, but it was the same for 740 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 1: both of you. You know, she was trying to make 741 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: excuses about the conditions and she was moaning. 742 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:30,399 Speaker 2: And said it during these trophy presentation on the court 743 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 2: and then said it at the press conference. But I 744 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 2: was shocked that that was the first thing out of 745 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 2: her mouth. 746 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,399 Speaker 1: Oh no, she she did. Congratulations. 747 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 2: No, she congratulated her after she mentioned about the conditions. 748 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 1: That. 749 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 2: But just to mention the conditions, the other player had 750 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 2: to play in the same conditions as you. 751 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: As you did. 752 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 2: But shot out shot to my girl. Congratulations. 753 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: Sinner just took Uh. He's now up six games to five. 754 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 1: Al Charez is now going to serve to save his 755 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 1: spot in the match. After that, we don't have a 756 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 1: tie breaker in the fifth set? Do we no chance 757 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 1: at the French up? And we'll find out. All right, 758 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,680 Speaker 1: we'll get you an updated on that, and we got 759 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: some NFL news to get to. He finally did it. 760 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 1: That's right, Well, get into the Aaron Rodgers situation in Pittsburgh. 761 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: What's next? This is Fox Sports Sunday. Don't listening to 762 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio Radio. Harvin Husky, Fox Sports Sunday. We're 763 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 1: in the Fox Sports Radio studios. All right, we have 764 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 1: a clarification as we are now heading to a tie 765 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 1: break in the fifth set of the French Open Men's 766 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,359 Speaker 1: final center in Alcarez. So it is first player to ten, 767 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 1: first player to ten in a deciding tie breaker in 768 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: the fifth set. So first player to ten, obviously I 769 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: have to win by two, we'll win the tiebreaker. So 770 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 1: Alcarez with the one nothing lead in the tie break 771 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: right now, By the way, the shot that he hit 772 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: to send in the tie break a cross court. The 773 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: angle doesn't even make sense from where he hit the 774 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,879 Speaker 1: ball on where the ball landed. But we're seeing two 775 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: young players at the absolute peak of their power going 776 00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 1: toe to toe right now in the men's French Open final. 777 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: And so keep your eye on that. And uh, and 778 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: then we got the polar opposite. Let me ask you this, 779 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 1: is there anything cool about Aaron Rodgers? No, like he's 780 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: like the anti cool, isn't. But was was there a 781 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,760 Speaker 1: point in his career where Aaron Rodgers was cool? 782 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 2: Championship belt celebration, I thought that was I thought that 783 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:39,840 Speaker 2: was like Cam Newton Superman. 784 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 1: The fact probably the greatest Hail Mary passer of all time. 785 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 5: That was definitely something to how he would operate an 786 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 5: offense of like, oh, hey, he's he's like he immediately 787 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 5: notices you're off side of rushes to the line like 788 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 5: even being a Lions fan, like we'd talk about with 789 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 5: my friends all the time about like I wish he 790 00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,800 Speaker 5: was in a different division because you're just forced to 791 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:05,800 Speaker 5: hate him. And then just something happened around a certain 792 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 5: time where he just I think bore. 793 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: One of our. 794 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 5: Producers isolated it to when he put his feet up 795 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,920 Speaker 5: on a table, his his bare feet up on a table. 796 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 5: Well look, no, no, no, no, no, no, no hold on, 797 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 5: let me let me, let me finish, Let me finish. 798 00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,320 Speaker 5: It was from that moment when he got a little 799 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 5: bit of pushback on that that he suddenly realized, oh, 800 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,919 Speaker 5: I can like start trolling these people, and that would 801 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 5: eventually lead into what happened during COVID. 802 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: I go understand what you're saying, Chris, But at the 803 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 1: same time, I mean it was during COVID and saying 804 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 1: this was the precursor to when he didn't realize that 805 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 1: like he would get the media, he would get the 806 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 1: media's attention for being a weirdo and a clown until 807 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,760 Speaker 1: he did the feat thing. Yeah, well he he's anything 808 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 1: but cool right now the question. But here I'm gonna 809 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: I'm gonna shock yet maybe VG on this whole thing. 810 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 1: And by the way, Acarez is up four zip right 811 00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:00,360 Speaker 1: now in the tie break. He has broken center twice 812 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 1: in the tie break, So Centaer's going to need a 813 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 1: miracle comeback here to salvage this match. But here I'm 814 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,879 Speaker 1: gonna surprise you, I think with my take on Aaron 815 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 1: Rodgers to the Steelers. Let's remind everybody again the last 816 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:19,839 Speaker 1: four years in Pittsburgh, which includes Roethlisberger's last year where 817 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 1: he could barely throw the ball more than fifteen yards 818 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:26,359 Speaker 1: down the field. And then, of course, now you got 819 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 1: Kenny Pickett, and then you had Mason Rudolph come back, 820 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,280 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden you got Justin Fields 821 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 1: and you got Russell Wilson, and through that entire mess, 822 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: four straight winning seasons, four straight winning seasons, three of 823 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 1: the four years making it into the postseason. And I'm 824 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: thinking to myself, all right, if they are that good 825 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:49,320 Speaker 1: of an organization, because I think it's a big difference 826 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: between the Jets organization and the Steelers organization. But if 827 00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: they can somehow manufacture winning records with subpar quarterback play, 828 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: really subpar quarterback play. Aaron Rodgers gotta be better than that, 829 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 1: even if he's slightly better than that, at the very least, 830 00:39:08,680 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: the idea that, oh, it's gonna be unbelievable that Mike 831 00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:14,880 Speaker 1: Thomas is gonna have his first losing season ever with 832 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers as his quarterback. I'm gonna say it right now. 833 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh will not have a losing season this year. The 834 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,399 Speaker 1: over runners eight and a half. I'm going over maybe 835 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,360 Speaker 1: nine and maybe ten, but it won't be eight. It 836 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 1: won't be seven. The Steelers will have a winning season, 837 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 1: not a championship season, with Aaron Rodgers' quarterback. 838 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 2: This thing is gonna fall in his face and fall 839 00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 2: in his face fast, just like I said when he 840 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:39,719 Speaker 2: left and went to the Jets. This thing's gonna fall 841 00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 2: flat on his face. When people show you who they are, 842 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 2: trust them, believe them. Believe people when they show you 843 00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 2: who they are. Aaron Rodgers has shown us who he is. 844 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,840 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers has shown us as a quarterback. This division 845 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,240 Speaker 2: is gonna be much better this year. I think Cleveland's 846 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 2: gonna surprise his people. I think the defense will be 847 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:57,720 Speaker 2: better in Cincinnati, and we already know what l Jacks 848 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 2: and the Baltimore Ravens do. I'll take the under and 849 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,399 Speaker 2: I'll take the under because Aaron Rodgers is gonna burn 850 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 2: this thing to the ground. 851 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: Are we adding that over under to our over under? 852 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: Chris uh As far As wins for the Pittsburgh Steelers 853 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 1: this year eight and a half. Soon I'm going over, 854 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,920 Speaker 1: he's going under. We're gonna roll on with more on 855 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Sunday.

Well, that was a that was 858 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,839 Speaker 1: a match for the ages of disappointment in the tie 859 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 1: break where Alcarez took over but a five set match 860 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:38,320 Speaker 1: as Acarez wins his second consecutive Rollo Garrel's championship. He 861 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,239 Speaker 1: now has two of the French to Wimbledon and the 862 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: US Open. He's twenty two years old, so right, future, 863 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,799 Speaker 1: I have but Yanick Center his best run ever at 864 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:49,960 Speaker 1: the French and he's gonna win plenty Grand Slams. So 865 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 1: that's it. That's that's your new matchup. On the men's side, 866 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: it's it's it's great. I mean that's what you need. 867 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:59,520 Speaker 1: You need rivalries. Rivalries, whether it's team sport, whether it's 868 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 1: an individual sport, rivalries bring eyeballs. People want to see that. Yeah, 869 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:06,919 Speaker 1: they want to see the next time these two guys 870 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,000 Speaker 1: get on the court in a Grand Slam final. 871 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 2: Not only that would robberies. Individual sports you need them, 872 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 2: I think even more than team sports, cause I think 873 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,800 Speaker 2: team sports you have historic robberies, right like, yeah, you 874 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 2: have like the Red Sox are or at the Yankees 875 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 2: tonight on TV. So that's it doesn't matter who's in 876 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 2: the uniforms. It's the emblem, it's the logo, uh usc 877 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 2: U c LA, it's the name, it's the emblem, it's 878 00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 2: the logo. An individual sport, you do need robberies or 879 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 2: you need someone for everybody to chase. That's what made 880 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 2: Tiger so riveting, not just because he won. It was 881 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 2: who was coming. Because remember, it was gonna be Phil, 882 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 2: then it was gonna be Sergio, it was gonna be 883 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 2: It's gonna be Earn. We kept trying to find guys 884 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 2: that was gonna chase it, catch Tiger, knock him down, 885 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:54,439 Speaker 2: knock him down. Yeah, Tiger just kept knocking them off. Like, listen, 886 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,799 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, this is my era. You guys just gonna 887 00:41:56,800 --> 00:41:58,799 Speaker 2: have to live in it. You'll get somebody else down 888 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,799 Speaker 2: the line to cheer for. But right now I own 889 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 2: this same thing with Jack, same thing with Jimmy Johnson 890 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:07,800 Speaker 2: and NASCAR, Like the guy dominated NASCAR for a decade 891 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 2: and you wanted someone to come up against him, and 892 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 2: just nobody could. He just kept beating everybody when it 893 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:13,799 Speaker 2: mattered the most. 894 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 1: One of my favorite Phil Nicholson stats a man that 895 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 1: won over forty PGA tournaments six majors, never achieved the 896 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: number one world ranking in his entire career. A lot 897 00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 1: of other guys have over that. I mean, Lee Westwood 898 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: was number one. He was the world's best player. You know, 899 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: Luke Donald was ranked number one in the world for 900 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 1: a while there, and Phil never actually got to number Do. 901 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 2: You ever think he was the best player in the world. 902 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 1: And it's not. As long as tire was out there 903 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 1: you go and there you go. 904 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 2: Right, It's like, look at the guys that don't have 905 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 2: rings because of Michael Jordan. Doesn't mean that you wasn't great, 906 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 2: doesn't mean that Berkeley wasn't great, doesn't mean it. Reggie 907 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 2: Miller wasn't great. Insted back to back they had and 908 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 2: they had double shot. They had back to back shots 909 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 2: at a one year with home court advantage. But you're 910 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:03,240 Speaker 2: going against Michael Jeffrey Jordan. It happens, Man, it happens. 911 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 2: Could you imagine what the how many guys woul win 912 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 2: the West? If Shaq, Kobe and Tim Duncan weren't in 913 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:09,319 Speaker 2: the West, we could have had a bunch of guys. 914 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 2: Derk might have got a ring sooner. You're you know 915 00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. Some other teams might have won. But 916 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 2: when you got to go against Kobe and Shack and 917 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:18,799 Speaker 2: Duncan and the Spurs and pop for twenty years, you've 918 00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 2: got no shot. 919 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,239 Speaker 1: I know you watched Game one of the NBA Finals. Yes, 920 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 1: by the way, I told you, I told you how 921 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,960 Speaker 1: I had to do the rewind hob in it. Let 922 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 1: me ask you this, so we we bid farewell to 923 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:38,359 Speaker 1: TNT and the NBA. Ernie Johnson got a little emotional yep. 924 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 1: And so I'm seeing the same guys together for the 925 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:49,359 Speaker 1: NBA Finals. Was it just me? Or was something off? 926 00:43:50,960 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 1: Without the TNT banner, same guys, something was off. I 927 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:05,600 Speaker 1: look at I'm not one that sort of hanging on 928 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 1: every word of a play by, you know, an announcing crew. 929 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:12,879 Speaker 1: I've said this a few times in my lifetime. There's 930 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:17,759 Speaker 1: only what I call three must listen to announswers. The 931 00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,800 Speaker 1: first one was Howard Cosell when they launched Monday Night Football. 932 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 1: This is before your time, But when Monday Night Football 933 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:28,399 Speaker 1: came on, Howard Cosell was that guy. John Madden, no question, 934 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 1: John Madden's presence on any NFL game immediately took it 935 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 1: to another level. And then in a different role, it's 936 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,680 Speaker 1: been Charles Barkley. Where Charles Barkley is a guy, I 937 00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:44,239 Speaker 1: want to hear what he has to say. Everybody else, 938 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 1: to me is just another voice. So I like more 939 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:49,879 Speaker 1: some you know. I mean, there's you know, there's there's 940 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 1: good guys in college football, Like you know, I think 941 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 1: when Fowler and Herb Street too thoughts together, Stay Night. 942 00:44:54,800 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 1: It's an outstanding, outstanding broadcast. Johnson dynamite because it captured 943 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 1: the moment. You know, Brian Musburger for years was great 944 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 1: in capturing the moment, right. But I'm actually saying I 945 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 1: want to hear what this person has to say. I 946 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 1: wanted to hear what Kosal had to say, and outrageous 947 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 1: as it was. I want to hear John Matten anything 948 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:22,560 Speaker 1: he had to say, and obviously with Barkley right now. 949 00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 1: But I'm looking at these broadcasts and I'm like, I 950 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:29,320 Speaker 1: don't know something is missing right now with the NBA. 951 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:33,280 Speaker 1: If you could put together VJ right now, your dream 952 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:37,400 Speaker 1: announcing team to call an NBA Finals game, you know, 953 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: a combination of two or three people that you think 954 00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 1: would do the best job and really capturing the moment 955 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 1: and raising it's you know, sometimes you don't have a 956 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 1: lot to work with. That was the beauty of John Madden. 957 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:52,800 Speaker 1: It wasn't like every game that he broadcasts was a 958 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,680 Speaker 1: great game. The most of them weren't. But he had 959 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:58,680 Speaker 1: a way to elevate it, elevate the game beyond what 960 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 1: it actually deserves. Are there such announcers now? Do you 961 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:05,920 Speaker 1: feel in the NBA that in light I mean, you 962 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:07,759 Speaker 1: don't have to worry about what we saw in Game one, 963 00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 1: But if this is like a forty point blowout, yeah 964 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 1: you know tonight, if this is a repeated way up 965 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 1: in Game two with Denver and OKC, you're hoping, is 966 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 1: there somebody that can hang your hang hang you could 967 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,480 Speaker 1: still you're still interested in what they have to say? 968 00:46:21,600 --> 00:46:23,480 Speaker 2: No, no, not at all, not at all. I tell 969 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 2: you what's missing. I'll answer both questions. I'll tell you 970 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:29,120 Speaker 2: what's missing. Their heart, man, their heart, their heart's gone. 971 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 2: You could see it in his face. If you didn't 972 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,520 Speaker 2: catch Barkley, ladies and gentlemen, all our great listeners, Fox 973 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:37,239 Speaker 2: Sports Radio, my esteem colleague here to my left. If 974 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,120 Speaker 2: you didn't catch Barkley on Dan Patrick, you need to 975 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 2: go YouTube. Yeah, because he's being brutally honest about what's 976 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 2: going on. Right, Like, they shot a pilot. Nobody knew 977 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 2: about it, and Barkley probably wouldn't have He probably wasn't 978 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 2: supposed to tell Dan Patrick that because damn was like, 979 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,240 Speaker 2: hold on what what he goes? We shot a pilot 980 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:55,000 Speaker 2: about a month ago, and it was the dumbest bleap 981 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,320 Speaker 2: I've ever Like, he's talking about the team that just 982 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,479 Speaker 2: signed him to a seven year dear and he's telling people, 983 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give him about two years. They can't fire me. 984 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:06,319 Speaker 2: I make too much money, so I'm gonna give him 985 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,279 Speaker 2: about two years and they're still gonna have to pay 986 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 2: me for five more years. That I'm not gonna work 987 00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,879 Speaker 2: for them, because he's always been about against going over 988 00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 2: the years. 989 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 1: Is this gonna be a repeat of when Disney took 990 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 1: over the Star Wars brand and ruined it? Probably. 991 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 2: I'm not a big Star Wars guy, so I can't 992 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,200 Speaker 2: speak to that, but I'm sure Star Wars fans out 993 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 2: there right now the listener. 994 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:26,479 Speaker 1: Are like, yeah, there you go, Steve. 995 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,960 Speaker 2: Great comparison and analogy.

Think, so, yeah, I'm going over eight and 1180 00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 1: a half. He's going under. Well, let's recap it real quick. 1181 00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 5: Last week, as we always get into that, we're still 1182 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:40,000 Speaker 5: putting to Isoline to put together the full point thing, 1183 00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:43,920 Speaker 5: and plus we have several NFL totals plus Bill Belichick 1184 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:46,960 Speaker 5: in the future. But recapping last week the Cowboys women 1185 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,759 Speaker 5: we put in the book shake Gil just Alexander had 1186 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:53,239 Speaker 5: thirty eight points in game one, so Steve took the 1187 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,759 Speaker 5: over on that, and I think what was the other ones? 1188 00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,279 Speaker 5: The over under half of suite for the Dodgers. You 1189 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:01,520 Speaker 5: both went over and I think the Yankees picked up. 1190 00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 1: The dub there. 1191 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:07,000 Speaker 5: Did they did? Okay, they picked up the Winds, So 1192 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 5: no sweet for the Dodgers. And then they did get 1193 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 5: my order right at Wendy's. So unfortunately and for three 1194 00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 5: for VJ last week, two points said they were going 1195 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:19,320 Speaker 5: to mess up your order again. 1196 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:24,919 Speaker 1: You said that, yes, yeah, interesting, so we were complicated 1197 00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:26,480 Speaker 1: order though it's a simple order. 1198 00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 2: Did you just get the chicken sandwich again? 1199 00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 1: A chicken sandwich order? 1200 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:31,800 Speaker 2: They didn't make your order before. They just they just 1201 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 2: didn't have enough chicken breast lefton again, it's indust true. 1202 00:57:34,480 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I didn't ask them to sub like hey, 1203 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 5: you know, they just whatever whatever gets the customer out 1204 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,200 Speaker 5: of there. Anyway, we move on to this week. Got 1205 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:43,320 Speaker 5: a good mix, actually just nixed one. I was going 1206 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 5: to do a Team USA one, but they stick right now. 1207 00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:48,040 Speaker 5: I don't really need to talk about the men's soccer 1208 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 5: at all. 1209 00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:48,960 Speaker 1: Uh. 1210 00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 5: You know what, who's been the hero of some of 1211 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:55,480 Speaker 5: these NHL playoffs is Leon dry Title. Everyone likes to 1212 00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:58,960 Speaker 5: talk about him. He's been fire usually only in the playoffs. 1213 00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 5: This is where my hockey knowledge begins to end because 1214 00:58:02,080 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 5: I believe ice belongs to the drink and not on 1215 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:09,000 Speaker 5: a floor. So Leon dry sidel next game, over and 1216 00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:11,640 Speaker 5: a half, over under one and a half goals. 1217 00:58:12,800 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 1: Just the next game, just the next game, Game three, 1218 00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:19,120 Speaker 1: Game three down in Miami. 1219 00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:24,240 Speaker 2: Oh man, he's been on fire though, man overtime goals. 1220 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:26,840 Speaker 1: I mean, he's just scoring machine. 1221 00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:29,520 Speaker 2: He's always at the right place at the right time. 1222 00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:32,440 Speaker 2: Those were the positions himself. Takes great passes, quick release 1223 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:33,320 Speaker 2: on his puck shots. 1224 00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 5: The theme of this, uh perhaps pets is flutch. So 1225 00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:37,960 Speaker 5: just keep that in mind as we go to more 1226 00:58:38,000 --> 00:58:43,040 Speaker 5: of these picks. You know what, give me one and 1227 00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:44,640 Speaker 5: a half goals or goals? 1228 00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:45,880 Speaker 1: When have goals? Goals? 1229 00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:49,480 Speaker 2: Oh under, I don't think of sports twice. But he'll 1230 00:58:49,480 --> 00:58:50,800 Speaker 2: I think you'll have over well. 1231 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 1: I mean we've been talking about the offensive firepower for 1232 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 1: both of these teams, and you know again, I hey, 1233 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,120 Speaker 1: I'm tuning in the game two of the Stanley A 1234 00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:02,280 Speaker 1: Final and it's three to two in the first period. 1235 00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:06,240 Speaker 1: It's nothing. I don't know. I mean, we're talking about 1236 00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:08,480 Speaker 1: a guy that's put up one hundred points every year, 1237 00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 1: fifty goals. I mean, the guy's a machine. 1238 00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:13,600 Speaker 2: But just one game on the road. And see, the 1239 00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:16,000 Speaker 2: thing is, the Oilers have so many guys there there 1240 00:59:16,080 --> 00:59:19,240 Speaker 2: really are good They know how to that puck around 1241 00:59:19,400 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 2: and I feel like. 1242 00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:25,840 Speaker 1: Because they've been doing decently, I think it's worth a shot, right, 1243 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna I'm gonna give him over. That's a lot. 1244 00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:31,120 Speaker 1: I mean, two goals on the road against the Panthers 1245 00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:34,280 Speaker 1: is asking a lot. But I'll roll the dice on that. 1246 00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:38,240 Speaker 1: Isn't he with the Panthers? No, okay, no, he plays 1247 00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:46,720 Speaker 1: his whole career. Not yell at me. Speaking of speaking 1248 00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:47,800 Speaker 1: of clutch, Let's move on. 1249 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:52,080 Speaker 5: So Tyrese Haliburton was the star of of Game one, 1250 00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:54,800 Speaker 5: even though I don't think he is a great player, 1251 00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 5: but I will say I think he is a clutch player. 1252 00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:59,160 Speaker 5: There are moments where he just disappears in games, but 1253 00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:00,720 Speaker 5: then you'll have the shot like that to end it. 1254 01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 5: So looking at the rest of these next three games 1255 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 5: coming up over the course of these three games, and 1256 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:09,120 Speaker 5: this is gonna be a little ephemeral. I was talking 1257 01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:11,720 Speaker 5: with Shae, our producer, about how we even classify this, 1258 01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,480 Speaker 5: but I want I'm I'm talking about Tyrese Haliburton big 1259 01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 5: shots one and a half over under. 1260 01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:20,400 Speaker 1: Oh no, you have to define this. So I think 1261 01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:23,280 Speaker 1: how a big shot could say, first shot before the 1262 01:00:23,400 --> 01:00:25,240 Speaker 1: half that turns out to be a game winner later. 1263 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:27,720 Speaker 5: I guess this is what me and Shaye were talking about. 1264 01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:30,440 Speaker 5: And I think we're going to define a big shot 1265 01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:33,760 Speaker 5: as like either a three or a long to that 1266 01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:40,000 Speaker 5: either flips the score, dagger or buzzer beater. 1267 01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:42,480 Speaker 1: In the last two minutes of the last two minutes, Yes, 1268 01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:43,160 Speaker 1: in the last the. 1269 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:45,000 Speaker 2: Next how many of the next three games? 1270 01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1271 01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:46,080 Speaker 2: What's the over? 1272 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 1: Under one and a half? 1273 01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:49,160 Speaker 2: That's easy. 1274 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:52,040 Speaker 1: No, I'll go under on this one three games? Well, 1275 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:54,800 Speaker 1: what my point is this? All right, let's let's say this. 1276 01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 1: I get see again. This is such a vague stuff, Chris, 1277 01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:00,360 Speaker 1: I know, all right, so let's say fun of this. 1278 01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:06,600 Speaker 1: But no, no, no, no, no, no, you can go down. 1279 01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:09,520 Speaker 1: All right. Let's say Tyrese Halibert. Let's say there's a 1280 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,520 Speaker 1: minute to go and Indiana's down three and he hits 1281 01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:14,600 Speaker 1: a three to tie it and they lose the game, 1282 01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:16,720 Speaker 1: and you're like, well, that was a big shot, and 1283 01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:19,640 Speaker 1: I'm like they lost the game. Still a big shot. 1284 01:01:19,680 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 1: It was still a big shot. No, no. 1285 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:28,080 Speaker 5: Position, It has to lead to a victory to define 1286 01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:29,720 Speaker 5: it to eight. Tell you what, me and Shay will 1287 01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:32,080 Speaker 5: keep defining this. We we will set our own It 1288 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:34,720 Speaker 5: makes them. It makes a difference when I'm talking about 1289 01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:36,800 Speaker 5: over under. If you if you say, what was a 1290 01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:38,920 Speaker 5: big shot in the moment, I'm like, yeah, but they. 1291 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:41,680 Speaker 1: Lost the game. You have to you have to be 1292 01:01:41,760 --> 01:01:43,160 Speaker 1: comfortable with fuzzy logic. 1293 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:45,480 Speaker 2: The last two minutes of the next three games. 1294 01:01:45,560 --> 01:01:47,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean he could have like, you know, 1295 01:01:47,400 --> 01:01:49,320 Speaker 1: back to back shots late in the game and still 1296 01:01:49,360 --> 01:01:51,480 Speaker 1: lose the game and say those are Shay, get on 1297 01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:53,360 Speaker 1: the on the horn here for a second. Here, he 1298 01:01:53,400 --> 01:01:56,920 Speaker 1: can't hear you right now, all right, Shay, Shay, can 1299 01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:01,400 Speaker 1: you hear us? Okay, So this idea of Tyree's Halliburton 1300 01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:03,360 Speaker 1: hitting a big shot, all right, let's let's talk to this. 1301 01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:06,560 Speaker 1: So let's say it's a one point game. He comes down, 1302 01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:09,920 Speaker 1: he hits a shot to give the Pacers the lead, 1303 01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:12,480 Speaker 1: and then okay, c scores, and then he comes back 1304 01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:15,480 Speaker 1: hits another shot to give him the lead, and then okay, 1305 01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:17,760 Speaker 1: see wins the shot. Who wins the game? At the end. 1306 01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:20,800 Speaker 1: Does he get credit for two big shots even though 1307 01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:21,720 Speaker 1: they lost the game? 1308 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:22,080 Speaker 3: No? 1309 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,560 Speaker 4: I I think it should be a dagger shot. It 1310 01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:27,360 Speaker 4: has to be something that either solidifies. 1311 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:28,080 Speaker 1: The game they win. 1312 01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:31,080 Speaker 5: The game has to win the game, right, It's either 1313 01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:34,920 Speaker 5: it's a game or is under on DJ. You want 1314 01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 5: to now that we've got that, you want to stick 1315 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:39,720 Speaker 5: with the over yep, Okay, I'm going I'm going under one. Okay, 1316 01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:42,640 Speaker 5: So we got to the we got to the Steelers. 1317 01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:44,560 Speaker 5: I want to say in the AFC for our next pick. 1318 01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:47,240 Speaker 5: And I'm mostly doing this because I've had to listen 1319 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:53,160 Speaker 5: to takes about Anthony Richardson vacating apparently what seems to 1320 01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:58,960 Speaker 5: be the Colts quarterback job here. I have no This 1321 01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:01,080 Speaker 5: is a team that I have have a very complicated 1322 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:03,320 Speaker 5: history with, considering some of their writers tried to get 1323 01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:05,920 Speaker 5: me fired for my lion's job. So I've had a 1324 01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:08,560 Speaker 5: hex on the Colts for what seems to be about 1325 01:03:08,640 --> 01:03:11,920 Speaker 5: since Carson Wentz was their quarterback and it's worked out 1326 01:03:12,080 --> 01:03:15,920 Speaker 5: very well. So gentlemen, Colts Indeapolis Colts have their season 1327 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:18,760 Speaker 5: total set at seven and a half wins over or under. 1328 01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:26,720 Speaker 1: I'll go first in this one. Yeah, I think they're 1329 01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:30,320 Speaker 1: playing for their owner. Jim Irsay was well liked in 1330 01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:35,160 Speaker 1: that organization. So I know their quarterback situation is very 1331 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 1: iffy at best, but they don't play in the best 1332 01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:41,400 Speaker 1: division in the NFL by far. So I'm definitely going 1333 01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:43,960 Speaker 1: to go over seven and a half for the Colts 1334 01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 1: this year. 1335 01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:50,080 Speaker 2: Tough division to figure out, but. 1336 01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:55,920 Speaker 1: That division could be very mid this next year. All 1337 01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:58,000 Speaker 1: those teams can be like nine win teams. 1338 01:03:58,600 --> 01:04:00,600 Speaker 5: All thought the Texans were on that's gonna be on 1339 01:04:00,680 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 5: this mediork rise, and that got blunted. 1340 01:04:03,560 --> 01:04:05,280 Speaker 2: I feel, I feel what you're saying. It's not a 1341 01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:08,160 Speaker 2: direct comment to you, but not we all. I sophomore 1342 01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:10,320 Speaker 2: slump is something for real for me at the quarterback position. 1343 01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:11,840 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna happen with Jaden Damis. I think 1344 01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:13,840 Speaker 2: he's gonna find that out this season. I look at 1345 01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 2: this schedule, man, I mean, you know, at the Chargers, 1346 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,720 Speaker 2: at the Steelers, at the Chiefs know some tough role games. 1347 01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:20,720 Speaker 2: We don't know what the Jazz is gonna be At Seattle, 1348 01:04:21,240 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 2: Darnold's up there throwing two interceptions and seven on seven's 1349 01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:27,120 Speaker 2: already up there. And as you mentioned this division, Texans 1350 01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 2: right their defense, you know they could play defense. 1351 01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:31,120 Speaker 1: CJ bounced back. This is a must win year for 1352 01:04:31,160 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 1: the Jaguars too. 1353 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 2: Right, That's how I was gonna that's the team to 1354 01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:34,640 Speaker 2: go to. Now, Jaguars, what do you do? 1355 01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:36,280 Speaker 1: You gotta go. 1356 01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:38,720 Speaker 2: You got the coach out of there, Okay, But now Trevor, 1357 01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:39,480 Speaker 2: it's on you. 1358 01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:40,080 Speaker 1: We give it. 1359 01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:43,120 Speaker 2: We've given you trav We move we moved up. We've 1360 01:04:43,160 --> 01:04:45,960 Speaker 2: given you Travis Hunter. We've given another weapon etn like 1361 01:04:46,040 --> 01:04:48,040 Speaker 2: we signed some weapons last year at the skill position 1362 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:53,720 Speaker 2: for you, uh man, I eight wins last year, AOC 1363 01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:57,600 Speaker 2: is tough. At the Bengals Packers, they they're at the 1364 01:04:57,760 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 2: you know, I'll go under. I just I want to 1365 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:05,000 Speaker 2: believe in Anthony Richison, I really do. But I'm hearing Anthony, 1366 01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:09,120 Speaker 2: I'm not hearing too much positivity upswing about the guy 1367 01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:10,640 Speaker 2: at the quarterback position. 1368 01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:11,760 Speaker 1: Is he getting better? 1369 01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:15,360 Speaker 2: So seven and a half, Yeah, I'll take the under 1370 01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:16,760 Speaker 2: because that means if I get seven, I'm good and 1371 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:20,040 Speaker 2: that's one lesson win from last year and last year 1372 01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:21,400 Speaker 2: they might have got a gifted a few teams, I 1373 01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:23,400 Speaker 2: mean the Dolphins that were playing their fourth streen quarterback 1374 01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:25,000 Speaker 2: and lost sixteen thirteen. 1375 01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:28,720 Speaker 5: Right, So the more I think about it, like I'm 1376 01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:31,280 Speaker 5: struggling to even see them get six wins, right, So 1377 01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:32,360 Speaker 5: look at that that you look. 1378 01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,280 Speaker 2: At that schedule, Dolphins coming in to open my Dolphins 1379 01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:36,000 Speaker 2: coming in, the Broncos coming there. They got two home 1380 01:05:36,040 --> 01:05:38,040 Speaker 2: games to open up. But you're talking about the Dolphins 1381 01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 2: of the Broncos coming in and coming there with style 1382 01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:41,760 Speaker 2: defenses and offenses that can you know, put points on 1383 01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:42,320 Speaker 2: the bordergation. 1384 01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:46,200 Speaker 1: I just want the drafting of Anthony. Remember after the drafty, 1385 01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:48,320 Speaker 1: they said, even if we had the number one overall 1386 01:05:48,360 --> 01:05:52,640 Speaker 1: pickway they're taking Anthony Richardson. Did you see him? On me? Cod? 1387 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,520 Speaker 1: If you can't throw the ball, act really, you're not 1388 01:05:55,600 --> 01:05:58,200 Speaker 1: going to be an effective NFL quarterback period excellently. I 1389 01:05:58,240 --> 01:06:00,200 Speaker 1: don't care what kind of skills you might have. You 1390 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:03,160 Speaker 1: got to be able to throw the ball accurately. All right? 1391 01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:05,520 Speaker 1: Is that it? No? No, we've got one more. We 1392 01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 1: do four, We do four and I steal. Hang on, 1393 01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:09,959 Speaker 1: hang on, hang on, Let's do it on the other side, 1394 01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:13,720 Speaker 1: because first we got to find out what is trending. 1395 01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:18,160 Speaker 1: Mancy is standing by I am, I am. 1396 01:06:18,280 --> 01:06:21,720 Speaker 9: I'm here hanging out taking a breath after that ruling. 1397 01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:24,880 Speaker 9: Garrow's final that I you know, I think what's cool 1398 01:06:24,880 --> 01:06:26,640 Speaker 9: about like tennis is like, you don't need to know 1399 01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:30,040 Speaker 9: how to play the sport. It's pretty self explanatory, right, 1400 01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:31,680 Speaker 9: Like you can just tune in. If I tell my 1401 01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:33,720 Speaker 9: girlfriends to tune in to watch a football game, they 1402 01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:35,440 Speaker 9: look at me like I'm asking them to. 1403 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:36,560 Speaker 7: Do, you know harder. 1404 01:06:36,880 --> 01:06:39,440 Speaker 1: The thing about it is tennis is very much like golf. 1405 01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:42,200 Speaker 1: I mean, my parents were tennis people. They love tennis, 1406 01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:45,720 Speaker 1: and so when you play a sport, even at the 1407 01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:49,080 Speaker 1: lowest level golf or tennis, and then you see what 1408 01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:52,440 Speaker 1: these people you're just like, it just really ows your mind, 1409 01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 1: Like it's how do you do that? 1410 01:06:54,160 --> 01:06:57,520 Speaker 8: I'd like five hours to still have the stamina. 1411 01:06:57,680 --> 01:06:59,000 Speaker 1: That's what I was about to break up. 1412 01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:00,960 Speaker 2: I don't know what I can do of it than 1413 01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,840 Speaker 2: sleep for five hours and think about this line up. 1414 01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:06,240 Speaker 2: If I could do right now for five straight hours other. 1415 01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:10,000 Speaker 1: Than sleep, yeah, yeah, and you're doing it on clay.

They went plus five hours, 1422 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:29,920 Speaker 9: went down to the fifth and final set went down 1423 01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:33,160 Speaker 9: to a tie break, and that's really where Carlos Alcoraz 1424 01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:35,960 Speaker 9: kind of dominated after being down two sets to start 1425 01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:38,400 Speaker 9: this match, but he won the first seven points in 1426 01:07:38,520 --> 01:07:42,960 Speaker 9: that ten point tie break and it just came down 1427 01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:43,439 Speaker 9: to the wire. 1428 01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:44,920 Speaker 7: Came down to the wire.

Excuse me what 1492 01:10:43,880 --> 01:10:46,400 Speaker 5: I say? Six sick yea yeah, yeah, two thousand and seven, 1493 01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:48,920 Speaker 5: and that was on Hell. Cabrera won it at five. 1494 01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:52,880 Speaker 5: Did I do that again? Geez soon? Yes, two thousand 1495 01:10:52,880 --> 01:10:54,840 Speaker 5: and seven on Hell Cabrera won it at five over 1496 01:10:55,200 --> 01:10:58,080 Speaker 5: Tiger Woods. Jim Furick tied at second six over, but 1497 01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:00,479 Speaker 5: then when it went back in twenty six and this 1498 01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:03,160 Speaker 5: is probably where that was screwing me up. John Dustin 1499 01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 5: Johnson won it with a two hundred and seventy six 1500 01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:10,200 Speaker 5: score card. That's four under par par of seventy at Oakmont. 1501 01:11:10,280 --> 01:11:13,679 Speaker 5: He played lights out. He played lights out, But nobody's 1502 01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 5: playing more lights out right now than Scotty Scheffler, right, 1503 01:11:17,120 --> 01:11:22,120 Speaker 5: and it's an American, an American course. So between the two, 1504 01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:25,120 Speaker 5: I've been sweating bullets on where to set this because 1505 01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:27,479 Speaker 5: I feel like setting it under par is a trap. 1506 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:29,080 Speaker 5: But at the same time, I feel like guys are 1507 01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:33,200 Speaker 5: getting better and better. I'm being generous about this. Scotty 1508 01:11:33,280 --> 01:11:37,560 Speaker 5: Scheffler two hundred and seventy eight and a half on 1509 01:11:37,800 --> 01:11:42,840 Speaker 5: seventy eight and a half finals is par, right, So 1510 01:11:43,080 --> 01:11:49,040 Speaker 5: I'm saying over under. So basically we're saying over unders two. 1511 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:52,960 Speaker 1: And a half hunder. Yeah, that's easy for me. This 1512 01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:55,160 Speaker 1: is a tough as it's a tough course. 1513 01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:57,639 Speaker 2: And also, to remember, guys, I live in that part 1514 01:11:57,680 --> 01:12:01,880 Speaker 2: of the country, there's still these not summer yet, there's 1515 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:05,639 Speaker 2: still these late spring windy kind of drizzle rain showers, 1516 01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:08,320 Speaker 2: and we know that stuff softens up the greens. We 1517 01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:10,720 Speaker 2: know people have to come off the course if they 1518 01:12:10,800 --> 01:12:12,439 Speaker 2: have to have it the weather delay. It kind of 1519 01:12:12,479 --> 01:12:15,880 Speaker 2: breaks your breaks, your rhythm, breaks your stride. I actually 1520 01:12:16,040 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 2: like rom at plus fourteen hundred. That's whe I'm gonna 1521 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:21,639 Speaker 2: put my money at on this bad boy. But uh yeah, 1522 01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:25,839 Speaker 2: give me, I don't. I don't see a golfer finishing 1523 01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:28,080 Speaker 2: under par on this course next week. 1524 01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:29,880 Speaker 5: I think it said this it like to eighty and 1525 01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:31,960 Speaker 5: a half. Would you still you're you're still going over 1526 01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:33,480 Speaker 5: for shuffling. 1527 01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:35,639 Speaker 2: To eighty and a half. You might get an argument 1528 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:38,240 Speaker 2: out of me, okay, but I do think the winner 1529 01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:41,080 Speaker 2: of this tournament, I'll put it at a plus three. 1530 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:47,320 Speaker 1: This Oakmont's tough. Oakmonts. It's tough, guys. Oh, it's a 1531 01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:49,439 Speaker 1: brutal of course, it's it's it's and. 1532 01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:51,640 Speaker 2: Listen, we don't know if someone's gonna come out of 1533 01:12:51,680 --> 01:12:52,280 Speaker 2: the woodward. 1534 01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:54,080 Speaker 1: You know, comfort somewhere you got. 1535 01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:56,880 Speaker 2: You got Xander Shaffie off there at the plus two thousand, 1536 01:12:57,000 --> 01:12:58,840 Speaker 2: like some of the great golfers. That's gonna be. This 1537 01:12:58,880 --> 01:13:00,280 Speaker 2: the US Open, it's the best in the world, right 1538 01:13:00,360 --> 01:13:03,600 Speaker 2: and this in oakemand Is it's brutal man. And I 1539 01:13:03,880 --> 01:13:05,880 Speaker 2: think the winner at his tournament, Steve Honestly, I think 1540 01:13:05,920 --> 01:13:07,759 Speaker 2: this win is like plus two man. 1541 01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:10,519 Speaker 1: Well, plus three, okay, but the we're looking at the 1542 01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:14,519 Speaker 1: total two and so here here's the thing. It used 1543 01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:16,960 Speaker 1: to be a par seventy one course for the US Open, 1544 01:13:16,960 --> 01:13:20,559 Speaker 1: and they changed it the year in two thousand and seven, 1545 01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:22,920 Speaker 1: So you go back before that. Ninety four, Ernie Els 1546 01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:26,120 Speaker 1: won at minus five. Again it was a par seventy 1547 01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:29,000 Speaker 1: one course, not a par seventy, so he would have 1548 01:13:29,040 --> 01:13:31,679 Speaker 1: been one under then. And then in ad three Larry 1549 01:13:31,760 --> 01:13:34,000 Speaker 1: Nelson won at minus four when again it was a 1550 01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:40,400 Speaker 1: par seventy. So I'm gonna go you're going over, Yeah, 1551 01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:45,080 Speaker 1: I'm going over. I I think it's right on that number. 1552 01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:47,479 Speaker 1: I think minus two, minus three is the winning score. 1553 01:13:47,680 --> 01:13:51,120 Speaker 1: I'll go under on this one again. I don't see 1554 01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:54,719 Speaker 1: anything that's gonna derail Scottie Shuffler and I was talking 1555 01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:55,600 Speaker 1: to you might not have that. 1556 01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:57,479 Speaker 5: We might not have this one final by the way, 1557 01:13:57,560 --> 01:13:59,439 Speaker 5: by the time we're on the air next but either 1558 01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:00,639 Speaker 5: way it'll be, it'll be counted. 1559 01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:03,160 Speaker 1: We'll have an idea. We'll have an idea. I have 1560 01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:03,639 Speaker 1: an idea. 1561 01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:07,040 Speaker 5: Next Sunday we'll have an Either VJ will have won 1562 01:14:07,080 --> 01:14:09,240 Speaker 5: already or I'll be like waiting with baited Brown. 1563 01:14:10,280 --> 01:14:12,040 Speaker 1: But I will agree with it. I mean, Parr is 1564 01:14:12,080 --> 01:14:15,519 Speaker 1: a great score, Oakvie. Believe me, no one's gonna be 1565 01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:17,280 Speaker 1: complaining at the end of the first route. They're sitting 1566 01:14:17,320 --> 01:14:20,920 Speaker 1: it even par So I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go under. 1567 01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:23,000 Speaker 1: I think somebody could definitely get to three under a 1568 01:14:23,080 --> 01:14:26,320 Speaker 1: West Scottie Sheffer can the way he's playing right now. 1569 01:14:26,560 --> 01:14:29,760 Speaker 1: And you just my guy child. Think we get into 1570 01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:30,800 Speaker 1: some arguments over this. 1571 01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:33,120 Speaker 2: I they know I love it. I think this is 1572 01:14:33,160 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 2: a Vegas sucker bet. 1573 01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:37,040 Speaker 1: I think Vegas puts sucker bets out there. I don't 1574 01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:39,080 Speaker 1: have no this is this is a perfect special here. 1575 01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:40,639 Speaker 1: I don't think you can find this on a Vegas board. 1576 01:14:40,760 --> 01:14:42,840 Speaker 2: No, no, I'm just talking about as far as as 1577 01:14:43,240 --> 01:14:48,200 Speaker 2: favor the favorites like plus three hundred and so Steve, 1578 01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:50,960 Speaker 2: you got the winner at minus three day. Yes, yeah, 1579 01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:53,519 Speaker 2: so you have the winter that's not gonna happen. That's 1580 01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 2: not gonna happen. 1581 01:14:54,240 --> 01:14:55,160 Speaker 1: This course is tough. 1582 01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:58,840 Speaker 2: This is this Oakmonts held it nine times, all right, 1583 01:14:58,920 --> 01:15:02,639 Speaker 2: so we know Colbert knows seven Johnson, Ernie L's and ninety. 1584 01:15:02,560 --> 01:15:04,600 Speaker 1: Other guys were under Park. But again it was a 1585 01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:06,679 Speaker 1: part seven changing exactly. 1586 01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:10,360 Speaker 2: And they make these courses harder now every year, these 1587 01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:12,920 Speaker 2: courses get harder. If you think Ernie L's in ninety four, 1588 01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:15,720 Speaker 2: so thirty one years ago when he won it, that 1589 01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:18,760 Speaker 2: is not the same course that he played on in 1590 01:15:18,880 --> 01:15:20,760 Speaker 2: ninety four and won it in ninety four. This is 1591 01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:25,600 Speaker 2: a much harder, much different course. The winner plus I 1592 01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:26,479 Speaker 2: like to win it over Park. 1593 01:15:26,560 --> 01:15:29,840 Speaker 1: You guys made sixty million plus in forty days.

These guys are exhausted, 1654 01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:22,720 Speaker 5: like I'll be curious how to get uh. 1655 01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:25,160 Speaker 1: And obviously we got the Stanley Cup final right now, 1656 01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:27,599 Speaker 1: which is we both agree is going to be seven games, 1657 01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:30,920 Speaker 1: great match between the Panthers Oilers, all right. But that 1658 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:36,960 Speaker 1: being said, NFL is still ky, So we know we're yeah, 1659 01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:39,720 Speaker 1: in some ways we're appreciating what, you know, all these 1660 01:18:39,760 --> 01:18:41,479 Speaker 1: things that we're talking about, but at the same time, 1661 01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:43,000 Speaker 1: in the back of our mind or maybe at the 1662 01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:45,800 Speaker 1: front of our mind, uh, we're thinking NFL all the time. 1663 01:18:46,240 --> 01:18:48,400 Speaker 1: So one of the things is we got ot as 1664 01:18:48,439 --> 01:18:51,240 Speaker 1: going on right now. And by the way, this whole 1665 01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:54,280 Speaker 1: thing with Aaron Rodgers yesterday spoke with Adam Kaplan because 1666 01:18:54,280 --> 01:18:56,559 Speaker 1: I asked him, like, why now, because a week ago 1667 01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,680 Speaker 1: I was even joking with him that Brett Farv did 1668 01:18:59,720 --> 01:19:02,719 Speaker 1: not with Minnesota until the mid of all August August 1669 01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:05,280 Speaker 1: and then when I have a phenomenal season, I said, 1670 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:08,799 Speaker 1: could you see something like that happening with Aaron Rodgers? 1671 01:19:08,880 --> 01:19:10,479 Speaker 1: He goes, no, I don't think it will be that late, 1672 01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:12,760 Speaker 1: But as it turnedout, it was the very next week. 1673 01:19:13,040 --> 01:19:14,720 Speaker 1: But they wanted to make sure they got him into 1674 01:19:14,800 --> 01:19:16,840 Speaker 1: camp with training camps coming up, because then you have 1675 01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,559 Speaker 1: the long layoff. But it's always fun at this point 1676 01:19:19,680 --> 01:19:22,240 Speaker 1: to me to start making some early predictions, not so 1677 01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:25,320 Speaker 1: much on teams, like, you know, exact win totals, because 1678 01:19:25,360 --> 01:19:27,120 Speaker 1: we don't even know the rosters yet. We'll get to 1679 01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:30,200 Speaker 1: that as we get closer to the season, but as 1680 01:19:30,320 --> 01:19:33,960 Speaker 1: far as making some early predictions on teams that will 1681 01:19:34,040 --> 01:19:38,719 Speaker 1: either exceed expectations going into the next year or fall short. 1682 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:42,400 Speaker 1: Because you can go through every single NFL year, there 1683 01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:45,439 Speaker 1: are three or four teams that completely fall off the map, 1684 01:19:45,800 --> 01:19:48,360 Speaker 1: and then are three or four teams like the Commanders 1685 01:19:48,439 --> 01:19:51,040 Speaker 1: last year or the Texans the year before that, they 1686 01:19:51,280 --> 01:19:55,000 Speaker 1: literally just come out of nowhere and find themselves into 1687 01:19:55,120 --> 01:19:57,720 Speaker 1: the postseason. So on the other side, I want to 1688 01:19:57,800 --> 01:19:59,599 Speaker 1: get you ready for this because I want to get 1689 01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:02,040 Speaker 1: a few teams out there. Of teams, give you a 1690 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:04,599 Speaker 1: little chance. Now take a look at the roster out there, 1691 01:20:04,760 --> 01:20:07,120 Speaker 1: because I have three teams of mine that I think 1692 01:20:07,200 --> 01:20:11,400 Speaker 1: are good bets have much better season than anyone's going 1693 01:20:11,479 --> 01:20:15,760 Speaker 1: to predict. This is Fox Sports Sunday, having all kinds 1694 01:20:15,800 --> 01:20:18,439 Speaker 1: of fun here on a huge Sunday in the sports world. 1695 01:20:18,520 --> 01:20:20,400 Speaker 1: This is Fox Sports Sunday.

Yeah right now, leading, uh, 1701 01:20:41,840 --> 01:20:44,880 Speaker 1: leading the Nationals to nothing.

And then 1707 01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:55,840 Speaker 2: you know what, I would do after this game, I 1708 01:20:55,880 --> 01:20:57,599 Speaker 2: would go home and get ready to watch the NBA 1709 01:20:57,680 --> 01:20:59,960 Speaker 2: Finals because it's on a good Sunday evening when everyone 1710 01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:01,280 Speaker 2: ones at home getting ready for Monday. 1711 01:21:02,280 --> 01:21:06,559 Speaker 1: Okay, well yeah, and then I mean, okay, we already 1712 01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:09,120 Speaker 1: found out. What was it? Wednesday? Is Game three? Of 1713 01:21:09,160 --> 01:21:12,880 Speaker 1: course series goes back to Indiana. Are we what are 1714 01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:14,920 Speaker 1: we looking for Game four? Do we have a Game 1715 01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:16,320 Speaker 1: four schedule for the NBA? 1716 01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:18,640 Speaker 2: Probably to be Friday night? You think I got to 1717 01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:20,240 Speaker 2: be a Friday night. I'll pull it up and look, yeah, 1718 01:21:20,240 --> 01:21:21,240 Speaker 2: because it would make sense. 1719 01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:24,439 Speaker 1: Well, I after having two days off or three days off, 1720 01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:25,800 Speaker 1: then you only have one day off. 1721 01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:28,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so, because then when it shifts back 1722 01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:32,360 Speaker 2: to okay, see for a Game five, then that'll be 1723 01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:35,320 Speaker 2: on Sunday. You have to have the NBA Finals on 1724 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:36,599 Speaker 2: Sundays evenings. 1725 01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:37,160 Speaker 9: You have to. 1726 01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:41,840 Speaker 2: You cannot not have something for the nation to watch 1727 01:21:42,120 --> 01:21:46,960 Speaker 2: big sports wise for the championship. Then on a Sunday evening. 1728 01:21:47,080 --> 01:21:49,280 Speaker 2: You have to have the NBA Finals on a Sunday evening. 1729 01:21:49,400 --> 01:21:52,400 Speaker 1: So I hear it. It is Friday. It is Friday 1730 01:21:52,640 --> 01:21:56,120 Speaker 1: in Indiana, very good Friday Friday.

Sundays. 1732 01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:07,760 Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no, it's not Sunday, Monday. We see, 1733 01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:08,439 Speaker 2: that's a mistake. 1734 01:22:09,360 --> 01:22:10,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's Monday. 1735 01:22:10,800 --> 01:22:11,439 Speaker 2: That's a mistake. 1736 01:22:11,720 --> 01:22:15,960 Speaker 1: Monday Thursday. So it would be Monday back in ok 1737 01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:20,880 Speaker 1: See for Game five and then Thursday back in Indiana 1738 01:22:21,040 --> 01:22:24,280 Speaker 1: for Game six. That's a mistake. Okay. 1739 01:22:24,640 --> 01:22:26,320 Speaker 2: I just think you, I just think Sunday is just 1740 01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:28,160 Speaker 2: a great night to have a finals. 1741 01:22:28,200 --> 01:22:30,080 Speaker 1: Well maybe in the world to be Jay Husky, it 1742 01:22:30,200 --> 01:22:31,799 Speaker 1: is no just the world of America. 1743 01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:33,599 Speaker 2: Everyone's home on Sunday nights. 1744 01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:34,599 Speaker 1: Who's not home? 1745 01:22:34,840 --> 01:22:37,920 Speaker 2: What family is not home on a Sunday evening? Everybody's 1746 01:22:37,960 --> 01:22:41,000 Speaker 2: home on a Sunday Eveningee. 1747 01:22:39,880 --> 01:22:42,360 Speaker 1: If you have children out, school's out. I mean, I 1748 01:22:42,520 --> 01:22:45,200 Speaker 1: understand home on Sunday till Tuesday. 1749 01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:47,800 Speaker 2: I still got to pick him on tomorrow. He still 1750 01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:50,400 Speaker 2: got to get up and take my Sunday school tomorrow morning, 1751 01:22:50,439 --> 01:22:53,479 Speaker 2: and pick him up tomorrow, take my Sunday school Tuesday morning, 1752 01:22:53,560 --> 01:22:54,679 Speaker 2: pick them up Tuesday afternoon. 1753 01:22:54,800 --> 01:22:57,040 Speaker 1: For anyone that, let's say out there has kids. Was 1754 01:22:57,120 --> 01:22:59,800 Speaker 1: the Staples commercial from nineteen ninety six. It's the most 1755 01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:03,320 Speaker 1: wonderful time of the year, the greatest commercial ever made. 1756 01:23:03,520 --> 01:23:06,240 Speaker 1: It's one of the most simple commercials. Probably costs a 1757 01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:08,479 Speaker 1: dime to make that thing with the two stone faced 1758 01:23:08,560 --> 01:23:11,040 Speaker 1: kids as the dad was dancing, yes, putting all the 1759 01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:13,559 Speaker 1: back to school supplies. It is still one of the all. 1760 01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:14,639 Speaker 1: In fact, it was funny. 1761 01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:14,840 Speaker 9: I was. 1762 01:23:15,080 --> 01:23:18,599 Speaker 1: I was talking to Isaac longcrom with his two little boys, 1763 01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:20,800 Speaker 1: and we look back at the comments because that video 1764 01:23:20,880 --> 01:23:23,320 Speaker 1: still runs and their people go, I play. 1765 01:23:23,840 --> 01:23:24,000 Speaker 6: It's. 1766 01:23:24,200 --> 01:23:27,240 Speaker 1: The funny thing is those two little kids probably now 1767 01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:30,200 Speaker 1: have kids of their own playing that commercial of themselves 1768 01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:33,000 Speaker 1: for their kids getting back to school or letting out 1769 01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:34,680 Speaker 1: for the summer. All right, I wanted to get a 1770 01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:38,320 Speaker 1: little bit into this. Throw some teams out there that 1771 01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:42,080 Speaker 1: let's start with the idea of teams in the NFL 1772 01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:46,000 Speaker 1: that you believe are going to exceed expectations. They're going 1773 01:23:46,080 --> 01:23:48,840 Speaker 1: to be this year's Commanders, or the Texans from a 1774 01:23:48,880 --> 01:23:51,479 Speaker 1: couple of years ago, or every single year two three, 1775 01:23:51,640 --> 01:23:54,960 Speaker 1: four teams come literally out of nowhere find themselves in 1776 01:23:55,040 --> 01:23:57,760 Speaker 1: the postseason, Like why did I bet on that team 1777 01:23:57,960 --> 01:24:00,840 Speaker 1: long odds to get into the postseason? And I'm going 1778 01:24:00,920 --> 01:24:03,920 Speaker 1: to give you a team off the top, and I'm 1779 01:24:04,080 --> 01:24:06,719 Speaker 1: looking at what they have done in the off season 1780 01:24:08,240 --> 01:24:10,920 Speaker 1: and I think this team is going to be one 1781 01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:13,599 Speaker 1: of those teams that could be knocking out now. As 1782 01:24:13,600 --> 01:24:15,439 Speaker 1: you know, one of my great predictions last year was 1783 01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:17,920 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos making the postseason. It was my only 1784 01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:21,519 Speaker 1: good prediction because I believed that Bo Nicks was the 1785 01:24:21,600 --> 01:24:24,519 Speaker 1: guy that Sean Payton wanted a quarterback and he used 1786 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:27,880 Speaker 1: him and he got dividends from that. That was a 1787 01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:30,000 Speaker 1: good pick last year. That was right there on that 1788 01:24:30,160 --> 01:24:32,040 Speaker 1: list from last year's NFL is my pick. 1789 01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:34,160 Speaker 2: He was winning it all on that list. So I 1790 01:24:34,240 --> 01:24:36,120 Speaker 2: think the end that was that was I had Dallas. 1791 01:24:36,439 --> 01:24:39,960 Speaker 1: All I saw. I saw that was all right. So 1792 01:24:40,160 --> 01:24:43,760 Speaker 1: I wasn't correct correct all my predictions obviously. But one 1793 01:24:43,840 --> 01:24:46,720 Speaker 1: team I think it is going to make a big 1794 01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:53,880 Speaker 1: leap this year the New England Patriots. Oh, I know, 1795 01:24:54,000 --> 01:24:57,080 Speaker 1: you didn't expect that, and I'm going to tell you why. 1796 01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:00,400 Speaker 1: So one of the one of the re since that 1797 01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:04,280 Speaker 1: the Patriots are now back on the path to respectability. 1798 01:25:04,479 --> 01:25:06,600 Speaker 1: You got to get to respectability before he can be 1799 01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:10,480 Speaker 1: good is they got rid of Bill Belichick making decisions 1800 01:25:10,520 --> 01:25:13,320 Speaker 1: in the draft because if you look at their draft 1801 01:25:13,400 --> 01:25:16,200 Speaker 1: this year. You have a young quarterback and Drake May 1802 01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:20,640 Speaker 1: despite very little around him, lousy offensive line, not a 1803 01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:23,759 Speaker 1: lot of weapons, he hung in there and he showed 1804 01:25:24,160 --> 01:25:26,840 Speaker 1: signs that yes, he has the skill set to be 1805 01:25:27,479 --> 01:25:30,639 Speaker 1: a really good quarterback in this league. But their first picks, 1806 01:25:30,760 --> 01:25:33,920 Speaker 1: four picks in the draft were all offensive picks. They 1807 01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:36,599 Speaker 1: added to their offensive line, which they needed. They added 1808 01:25:36,680 --> 01:25:40,080 Speaker 1: the tackle Campbell, they added a center in the third round, 1809 01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:43,720 Speaker 1: and then you get Trevian Henderson out of Ohio State 1810 01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:46,240 Speaker 1: from a big time program. I think he is going 1811 01:25:46,320 --> 01:25:50,320 Speaker 1: to add a level to that offense because they don't 1812 01:25:50,360 --> 01:25:52,519 Speaker 1: have a running back. You have to have a legitimate 1813 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:55,640 Speaker 1: running back in this league to at least offer a 1814 01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:58,320 Speaker 1: little suspect on the defensive side, to give a little 1815 01:25:58,360 --> 01:26:01,360 Speaker 1: bounces the offense. New England because I look at the 1816 01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:05,040 Speaker 1: Jets as being just flat out awful, and I look 1817 01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:08,240 Speaker 1: at the Dolphins as a huge question mark going into 1818 01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:11,639 Speaker 1: this season. The Bills are the Bills. But I think 1819 01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:14,479 Speaker 1: that right now you could look at the New England 1820 01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:18,519 Speaker 1: Patriots and say that is a team that could could 1821 01:26:19,120 --> 01:26:21,519 Speaker 1: get eight or nine wins this year. I think that 1822 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:23,639 Speaker 1: they can make that kind of leap and if things 1823 01:26:23,760 --> 01:26:26,240 Speaker 1: really go right for them, uh, it could be even 1824 01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:28,800 Speaker 1: better than that. So I'm gonna I'm gonna predict right 1825 01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:31,559 Speaker 1: now as a team that's gonna be a way over 1826 01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:35,640 Speaker 1: on the over underwins this year as the New England. 1827 01:26:35,960 --> 01:26:39,240 Speaker 2: Patriots home against the Raiders, at the Dolphins home against 1828 01:26:39,240 --> 01:26:42,439 Speaker 2: the Steelers, Panthers, and at the Bills. I see that's 1829 01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:45,120 Speaker 2: four and o to start. No, absolutely not foreign. No 1830 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:47,439 Speaker 2: to start, you are You're already high on the Steelers. 1831 01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:49,200 Speaker 2: So they the Steelers will come in there with great 1832 01:26:49,240 --> 01:26:51,360 Speaker 2: weather with Aaron Rodgers, right because you think they're gonna 1833 01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:53,640 Speaker 2: be over five hundred team. The Panthers are gonna be 1834 01:26:53,680 --> 01:26:55,080 Speaker 2: a lot better than people thinking. And we know they're 1835 01:26:55,080 --> 01:26:56,600 Speaker 2: gonna go get white by the Bills. They're gonna go 1836 01:26:56,640 --> 01:26:58,040 Speaker 2: down to Miami and get wiped early in the year 1837 01:26:58,040 --> 01:27:00,639 Speaker 2: because it's gonna be hot down there. Well said to fourteenth, 1838 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:02,960 Speaker 2: you're gonna be it's gonna be hot down there, and 1839 01:27:02,960 --> 01:27:04,120 Speaker 2: they're gonna put them in the sun. 1840 01:27:04,800 --> 01:27:07,920 Speaker 1: The Dolphins. Trying to predict games is like always based 1841 01:27:07,960 --> 01:27:09,080 Speaker 1: on what happened a year ago. 1842 01:27:09,680 --> 01:27:11,200 Speaker 2: Trying to predict sasons. 1843 01:27:11,200 --> 01:27:16,160 Speaker 1: We're trying to predict right now, you're gonna say, Chris Hartman, 1844 01:27:16,479 --> 01:27:16,720 Speaker 1: you know. 1845 01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:21,200 Speaker 2: Absolutely I don't think this is gonna get that situation. 1846 01:27:21,439 --> 01:27:23,479 Speaker 1: Well, okay, I'm in with New England. Who are you? 1847 01:27:23,600 --> 01:27:24,040 Speaker 1: Two teams? 1848 01:27:24,080 --> 01:27:25,360 Speaker 2: I got right here and I'm gonna be a home 1849 01:27:25,520 --> 01:27:25,760 Speaker 2: right here. 1850 01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:26,240 Speaker 1: Don't care. 1851 01:27:26,280 --> 01:27:29,120 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go out. My Dolphins finished eighty nine last year. 1852 01:27:29,240 --> 01:27:31,120 Speaker 2: Two have missed a lot of time if two was there. 1853 01:27:31,560 --> 01:27:34,479 Speaker 2: This is a twelve win team, easily twelve wins. Well, yeah, 1854 01:27:34,479 --> 01:27:36,679 Speaker 2: they well they won eleven games back to back years. 1855 01:27:36,960 --> 01:27:41,000 Speaker 2: That's just that's the way. Okay, it is, they happen twelve. 1856 01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:41,599 Speaker 1: If they win. 1857 01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:43,840 Speaker 2: Twelve, twelve, I'm calling twelve. 1858 01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:46,040 Speaker 1: I know the rules. We're going with twelve. Okay. 1859 01:27:46,280 --> 01:27:47,519 Speaker 2: I don't have to give a lot of reason about this. 1860 01:27:47,640 --> 01:27:49,840 Speaker 2: This team I think is just super super interesting. And 1861 01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:52,240 Speaker 2: you and my man missed the perfect picks. Was just 1862 01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:54,639 Speaker 2: in here talking about them because we we all three 1863 01:27:54,680 --> 01:27:57,839 Speaker 2: admit just everything went wrong with them. Watch the Cleveland 1864 01:27:57,920 --> 01:28:01,120 Speaker 2: Browns this year. Watch the Cleveland Browns this year, because 1865 01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:03,519 Speaker 2: you guys, are your quarterback gonna be the starter is 1866 01:28:03,520 --> 01:28:05,720 Speaker 2: gonna be Shador Sanders. I've been saying that since day one, 1867 01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:07,040 Speaker 2: so I'm not gonna fall off of that. But we 1868 01:28:07,040 --> 01:28:09,519 Speaker 2: don't have to get into our Chaudor conversation. But that 1869 01:28:09,680 --> 01:28:12,240 Speaker 2: running game with Chubb coming back, I'm with you. When 1870 01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:14,080 Speaker 2: you blow your knee out, it takes a little while 1871 01:28:14,120 --> 01:28:15,640 Speaker 2: to get back. But they got some other backs in 1872 01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:17,560 Speaker 2: that tool shit that they can use too. They have 1873 01:28:17,680 --> 01:28:19,519 Speaker 2: some receivers, they got a tight end, and they have 1874 01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:24,960 Speaker 2: a very very very good upper echelon defense and defense travels. 1875 01:28:25,000 --> 01:28:27,720 Speaker 2: You could take a defense with you anywhere and they're 1876 01:28:27,720 --> 01:28:30,240 Speaker 2: gonna get on the field and perform. You got Miles Garrett, 1877 01:28:30,320 --> 01:28:32,200 Speaker 2: who is not the highest paid non quarterback in the 1878 01:28:32,320 --> 01:28:35,479 Speaker 2: history of the league, still coming off the end wrecking shop. 1879 01:28:35,560 --> 01:28:37,280 Speaker 2: Look for him to have fifteen plus. 1880 01:28:37,120 --> 01:28:37,800 Speaker 1: Sacks this year. 1881 01:28:38,479 --> 01:28:41,320 Speaker 2: Absolutely, Miles Garrett will have fifteen plus sacks this year. 1882 01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:43,680 Speaker 2: He is going to It is a tough division. But 1883 01:28:43,760 --> 01:28:45,800 Speaker 2: you also got some quarterbacks in that division too that 1884 01:28:45,920 --> 01:28:47,879 Speaker 2: you can get to. And that's including Lsry. 1885 01:28:47,960 --> 01:28:50,479 Speaker 1: You say the Steelers are gonna suck, So okay, they. 1886 01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:53,200 Speaker 2: Are gonna suck. Aaron Rodgers is gonna burn that thing 1887 01:28:53,360 --> 01:28:57,719 Speaker 2: down to the ground. People watch, all right, seven wins, seven. 1888 01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:00,080 Speaker 1: And you got in. 1889 01:29:00,360 --> 01:29:01,800 Speaker 2: But I got I got a third team. That's I'm 1890 01:29:01,800 --> 01:29:03,639 Speaker 2: going to let me get a second team. 1891 01:29:03,760 --> 01:29:06,840 Speaker 1: All right, my second team. My second team will be 1892 01:29:06,920 --> 01:29:09,800 Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers. I'm with you. So you know, they 1893 01:29:09,880 --> 01:29:12,360 Speaker 1: get McMillan, who is a big time receiver, is going 1894 01:29:12,439 --> 01:29:15,080 Speaker 1: to be a huge asset for Bryce Young. Uh. And 1895 01:29:15,240 --> 01:29:17,599 Speaker 1: I was impressed with Bryce Young a year ago. Absolutely, 1896 01:29:17,760 --> 01:29:22,520 Speaker 1: I mean he held it together in light of complete absence. 1897 01:29:22,880 --> 01:29:25,240 Speaker 1: They were they were competitive in a lot of games 1898 01:29:25,320 --> 01:29:27,719 Speaker 1: last year. Should be the Chiefs, should have beat the Chiefs. 1899 01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:32,800 Speaker 1: And I just I started again. See, both of us 1900 01:29:32,840 --> 01:29:35,320 Speaker 1: have followed Bryce Young since his high school so we 1901 01:29:35,800 --> 01:29:38,599 Speaker 1: know this kid. We know what he's about. Forget the stature. Yeah, 1902 01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:41,840 Speaker 1: he's the smallest quarterback in this league, but that this 1903 01:29:42,000 --> 01:29:45,240 Speaker 1: kid is a winner. I believe that. So I think 1904 01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:48,240 Speaker 1: the Panthers are going, especially in that division, a very 1905 01:29:48,400 --> 01:29:51,040 Speaker 1: winnable division. Honestly, you get a few breaks, get a 1906 01:29:51,080 --> 01:29:53,040 Speaker 1: couple of on the there's never a it's a fine 1907 01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:55,639 Speaker 1: line between ten and seven and seven and a couple 1908 01:29:55,680 --> 01:30:00,360 Speaker 1: of bounces. If you become ten and seven, that could 1909 01:30:00,400 --> 01:30:01,920 Speaker 1: be the kind of year for the Panthers. So I 1910 01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:04,920 Speaker 1: think the Panthers are a team that potentially could actually 1911 01:30:05,040 --> 01:30:06,800 Speaker 1: win that division. And I'll add to it. 1912 01:30:06,880 --> 01:30:09,000 Speaker 2: You talk about a running back being added to New England, 1913 01:30:09,040 --> 01:30:10,640 Speaker 2: let's talk about the running back, the rookie out of 1914 01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:13,920 Speaker 2: Georgia et and the younger brother of Travis being answered 1915 01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:15,960 Speaker 2: into this to go with Hubbard, who they gave the 1916 01:30:16,040 --> 01:30:18,640 Speaker 2: extension to. Who's the thirteen hundred yard back? So now 1917 01:30:18,680 --> 01:30:20,280 Speaker 2: you got kind of this rookie that could come in 1918 01:30:20,640 --> 01:30:22,479 Speaker 2: and spell him kind of like a thunder and lightening. 1919 01:30:23,479 --> 01:30:25,320 Speaker 1: All right, we'll just hold it right there. We'll just 1920 01:30:25,400 --> 01:30:27,320 Speaker 1: save some of this because in the weeks ahead, we're 1921 01:30:27,360 --> 01:30:29,120 Speaker 1: also going to talk about some of the teams that 1922 01:30:29,240 --> 01:30:32,559 Speaker 1: are gonna botom out this year in the NFL. 1923 01:30:32,760 --> 01:30:34,599 Speaker 2: One quick second, you have to let me just throw 1924 01:30:35,280 --> 01:30:36,360 Speaker 2: I think they win their division. 1925 01:30:36,400 --> 01:30:36,720 Speaker 1: Who's this? 1926 01:30:36,840 --> 01:30:39,680 Speaker 2: The Chargers are going to win the AFC. No, no, no, no, no, 1927 01:30:40,040 --> 01:30:44,640 Speaker 2: Charges are going to win the AFA. 1928 01:30:45,120 --> 01:30:49,360 Speaker 1: That is a classic team that overachieved by editing one's 1929 01:30:49,360 --> 01:30:51,880 Speaker 1: account in twenty twenty four. No one had them in 1930 01:30:51,920 --> 01:30:54,559 Speaker 1: the playoffs. I think they take a step back before 1931 01:30:54,560 --> 01:30:55,920 Speaker 1: they take a step for I'll tell you he's going 1932 01:30:55,960 --> 01:31:02,599 Speaker 1: to finish of the Chargers this year. The Raiders, Dot 1933 01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:08,960 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll, Pete Carroll. You know Pete Carroll, don't you? 1934 01:31:10,560 --> 01:31:14,240 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame coach Pete Carroll? Right that guy? Do 1935 01:31:14,320 --> 01:31:16,519 Speaker 1: you have a veteran quarterback right now? You think they 1936 01:31:16,600 --> 01:31:17,599 Speaker 1: upgraded quarterback? 1937 01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:18,040 Speaker 10: Yeah? 1938 01:31:18,560 --> 01:31:20,560 Speaker 1: Did they not take the number one running back in 1939 01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:23,920 Speaker 1: the draft? Ashton Genty is gonna run? You like Geno 1940 01:31:24,040 --> 01:31:26,519 Speaker 1: that much? What I'm asking you like Geno that much? Well, 1941 01:31:26,720 --> 01:31:29,559 Speaker 1: he's not up greade from their quarter They quarterback last 1942 01:31:29,600 --> 01:31:33,400 Speaker 1: couple of years better than I think. Well, he's working 1943 01:31:33,439 --> 01:31:36,120 Speaker 1: with a coach and knows him. Okay, right, So I 1944 01:31:36,240 --> 01:31:38,800 Speaker 1: mean you're Pete Carroll, Gino Smith, and now you have 1945 01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:41,679 Speaker 1: the this Genty kid. He's gonna run wild. 1946 01:31:42,280 --> 01:31:43,080 Speaker 2: He's gonna be a beast. 1947 01:31:43,080 --> 01:31:45,280 Speaker 1: All right? Yeah, all right. So we're on the record 1948 01:31:45,360 --> 01:31:48,720 Speaker 1: right now. I'm gonna say between Raiders Chargers, you. 1949 01:31:48,760 --> 01:31:50,160 Speaker 2: Got the charge to finishing third. 1950 01:31:51,760 --> 01:31:54,880 Speaker 1: More fourth? Right because you think they were? Oh wow? 1951 01:31:55,040 --> 01:31:57,800 Speaker 1: Although I haven't. I'm not one hundred percent committed on 1952 01:31:57,880 --> 01:31:59,040 Speaker 1: Denver yet. Okay, I'm not. 1953 01:31:59,160 --> 01:31:59,840 Speaker 2: I was last year. 1954 01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:06,439 Speaker 1: I need time again. Final predictions will call later. I 1955 01:32:06,520 --> 01:32:09,040 Speaker 1: want to see rosters and everything else. Although the Chargers 1956 01:32:09,080 --> 01:32:10,920 Speaker 1: are in camp early because they're in the Hall of 1957 01:32:11,000 --> 01:32:14,080 Speaker 1: Fame game against Chris's Detroit Lions.

But VJ and I were talking about this, 1979 01:33:21,200 --> 01:33:24,559 Speaker 1: I mean, this just stares like a seven game series. 1980 01:33:24,640 --> 01:33:27,120 Speaker 1: But I want to get your thoughts of what's happened 1981 01:33:27,160 --> 01:33:30,880 Speaker 1: so far and any surprises to you and just how 1982 01:33:31,000 --> 01:33:34,120 Speaker 1: tight these games are, and maybe the big surprise are 1983 01:33:34,680 --> 01:33:38,400 Speaker 1: maybe not a surprise, is just the offensive explosion of 1984 01:33:38,520 --> 01:33:41,200 Speaker 1: both of these teams early on in the Stanley Cup Final. 1985 01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:44,479 Speaker 6: Yes, Stephen BJ first of all, always great to with you, 1986 01:33:44,640 --> 01:33:46,840 Speaker 6: especially when we've got so much to talk about, which 1987 01:33:46,960 --> 01:33:49,400 Speaker 6: is the case right now. It is just a smorgas 1988 01:33:49,439 --> 01:33:52,000 Speaker 6: board of great sports right now. And with respect to 1989 01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:56,280 Speaker 6: the Cup final, you're right it hasn't been necessarily a surprise. 1990 01:33:56,960 --> 01:34:00,360 Speaker 6: But what's impressed me the most is just a hate 1991 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:05,040 Speaker 6: of these games, the pace and the physicality. If you 1992 01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:09,479 Speaker 6: tuned in to hockey for the first time in these 1993 01:34:09,560 --> 01:34:13,680 Speaker 6: two games all season long, I'm guessing your reaction is, 1994 01:34:14,160 --> 01:34:18,200 Speaker 6: what is this Because it's just so fast and so physical. 1995 01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:23,080 Speaker 6: We've already seen a couple plays, either goals themselves or 1996 01:34:23,240 --> 01:34:28,880 Speaker 6: setups by McDavid that are just next level. The vision 1997 01:34:28,960 --> 01:34:33,519 Speaker 6: that he has when he's with Dryicidle, their chemistry is excellent. 1998 01:34:33,920 --> 01:34:36,040 Speaker 6: And then I think on the other side of things 1999 01:34:36,520 --> 01:34:40,559 Speaker 6: with Florida a huge goal of course by Brad Marshan, 2000 01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:45,280 Speaker 6: and it's no accident that with Corey Perry scoring the 2001 01:34:45,360 --> 01:34:48,559 Speaker 6: game time goal and Marshan getting the winner, these are 2002 01:34:48,640 --> 01:34:51,719 Speaker 6: two names of two very prominent players who have played 2003 01:34:51,920 --> 01:34:55,320 Speaker 6: so much high level hockey over their careers. And this 2004 01:34:55,560 --> 01:34:58,439 Speaker 6: is why you bring in a veteran like Corey Perry. 2005 01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:00,760 Speaker 6: He's been at the Stanley Cup final. You reference to 2006 01:35:00,920 --> 01:35:03,240 Speaker 6: his title with the Ducks. Stevie's been in the Cup 2007 01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:06,320 Speaker 6: finals so many times even since then. He brings in 2008 01:35:06,400 --> 01:35:08,920 Speaker 6: a ton of experience. Marshan is a winner. He gets 2009 01:35:08,960 --> 01:35:11,080 Speaker 6: the big goal double overtime. He also scored a huge 2010 01:35:11,439 --> 01:35:14,680 Speaker 6: short handed goal in Game two. So I think the 2011 01:35:14,760 --> 01:35:18,000 Speaker 6: big question I had coming into this was will the 2012 01:35:18,160 --> 01:35:23,360 Speaker 6: Oilers have enough goaltending from Skinner to stay close to Vebrovski, 2013 01:35:23,600 --> 01:35:25,599 Speaker 6: And I think the answer so far has been yes. 2014 01:35:25,720 --> 01:35:29,160 Speaker 6: So I think for a lot of reasons, the Oilers 2015 01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:31,360 Speaker 6: have to feel good about where they're at, even though 2016 01:35:31,920 --> 01:35:34,439 Speaker 6: they did sure miss a chance to really swing this 2017 01:35:34,520 --> 01:35:36,840 Speaker 6: series into their favor had they won that Game two 2018 01:35:36,840 --> 01:35:37,559 Speaker 6: in double overtime. 2019 01:35:38,280 --> 01:35:40,320 Speaker 1: My man JP how you doing, brother? 2020 01:35:40,400 --> 01:35:43,280 Speaker 2: Always a pleasure and as always as always, how's Mama 2021 01:35:43,320 --> 01:35:43,920 Speaker 2: Morosi doing. 2022 01:35:45,120 --> 01:35:47,800 Speaker 6: She's doing great, VJ. She's doing great. The Tigers, as 2023 01:35:47,840 --> 01:35:51,360 Speaker 6: you know, playing a huge weekend series here in Detroit 2024 01:35:51,439 --> 01:35:54,719 Speaker 6: against the Cubs. So my mom is doing great following 2025 01:35:54,760 --> 01:35:56,000 Speaker 6: her deer Detroit. 2026 01:35:55,720 --> 01:35:58,280 Speaker 2: Tigers oziah seven and a half lead in that division. 2027 01:35:58,280 --> 01:35:59,960 Speaker 2: Looks like they're running away for it from it, man, 2028 01:36:00,080 --> 01:36:02,360 Speaker 2: But I want to stick with championship stuff right now. 2029 01:36:02,760 --> 01:36:04,559 Speaker 2: Let's flip over to the NBA Finals. 2030 01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:04,720 Speaker 1: Man. 2031 01:36:04,800 --> 01:36:06,560 Speaker 2: After Game one, I was one that would pick the 2032 01:36:06,600 --> 01:36:08,559 Speaker 2: Pacers in seven. I thought that would be their only 2033 01:36:08,680 --> 01:36:11,640 Speaker 2: shot is in seven. And I'm gonna go out on 2034 01:36:11,680 --> 01:36:13,320 Speaker 2: the limb here and throw something out. I know people 2035 01:36:13,320 --> 01:36:16,120 Speaker 2: are gonna think it's very hyperbolic, but it's not. Okay, 2036 01:36:16,160 --> 01:36:17,600 Speaker 2: See is under a lot of pressure and there are 2037 01:36:17,600 --> 01:36:19,720 Speaker 2: a lot of trouble tonight because for them to lead 2038 01:36:19,760 --> 01:36:21,639 Speaker 2: that game the way they did and then to crumble 2039 01:36:21,720 --> 01:36:24,920 Speaker 2: down the stretch, if that game is even close within 2040 01:36:25,040 --> 01:36:28,280 Speaker 2: twenty points for most of tonight, you can't relax. You 2041 01:36:28,360 --> 01:36:30,960 Speaker 2: can't just think, Okay, we got it, because we've seen 2042 01:36:31,080 --> 01:36:34,640 Speaker 2: this Pacer team time and time and time again. No 2043 01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:36,840 Speaker 2: one wants to mention going into the finals, they were 2044 01:36:36,880 --> 01:36:39,559 Speaker 2: twelve and four this postseason. Then once you're they're twelve 2045 01:36:39,600 --> 01:36:41,720 Speaker 2: and four, right, which is the best record in the 2046 01:36:41,760 --> 01:36:45,280 Speaker 2: postseason going into that game up there with ok See, 2047 01:36:45,640 --> 01:36:47,360 Speaker 2: I think okay See is in a lot of trouble. 2048 01:36:47,439 --> 01:36:49,320 Speaker 2: I think okay See is under a lot of pressure, 2049 01:36:49,360 --> 01:36:52,439 Speaker 2: and I think that this team is a lot better 2050 01:36:52,479 --> 01:36:54,400 Speaker 2: than people get them credit for. And as I mentioned 2051 01:36:54,479 --> 01:36:58,280 Speaker 2: last week, Rick Carlisle was the coach that made it. 2052 01:36:58,400 --> 01:37:00,439 Speaker 2: Pushed all the buttons right correctly so towards the end 2053 01:37:00,439 --> 01:37:03,240 Speaker 2: of that game, and I thought, okaying staff just fell apart. 2054 01:37:04,360 --> 01:37:07,120 Speaker 6: Well, Carlowle's been here before, and I think the other 2055 01:37:07,200 --> 01:37:10,040 Speaker 6: piece and so much of the national narrative has been 2056 01:37:10,120 --> 01:37:12,840 Speaker 6: around Halliburton with respect to the Pacers, and then for 2057 01:37:12,960 --> 01:37:16,839 Speaker 6: good reason, this is one of the best clutch playoff 2058 01:37:16,880 --> 01:37:20,720 Speaker 6: performances that we have ever seen. And yet the Pacers 2059 01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:24,559 Speaker 6: are are more than just tim. They had three guys 2060 01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:29,400 Speaker 6: who had double doubles in in Game one three, and 2061 01:37:29,560 --> 01:37:32,840 Speaker 6: they had three players who actually scored more points than 2062 01:37:32,880 --> 01:37:35,479 Speaker 6: Haliburton did. Siakham, Turner and Top and all score more 2063 01:37:35,479 --> 01:37:39,320 Speaker 6: points than Haliburton did. So to me, there's a balance 2064 01:37:39,360 --> 01:37:42,439 Speaker 6: to this Pacers team that they get really good three 2065 01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:44,640 Speaker 6: point shooting in the smith as well. Obviously there's this 2066 01:37:44,880 --> 01:37:47,280 Speaker 6: There's a lot to like about the way this this 2067 01:37:47,439 --> 01:37:51,200 Speaker 6: Pacers team is balanced out to where they're not just 2068 01:37:51,360 --> 01:37:54,840 Speaker 6: one player, they are a full group. Carlisle knows how 2069 01:37:54,880 --> 01:37:56,920 Speaker 6: to use them. And I also think you saw in 2070 01:37:57,040 --> 01:38:01,599 Speaker 6: terms of the overall minutes played and the and the rotation. Again, 2071 01:38:01,840 --> 01:38:04,839 Speaker 6: Topham came off the bench some big, big minutes, McConnell, 2072 01:38:04,920 --> 01:38:08,200 Speaker 6: m Thurne as well. So Carlisle goes fairly deep in 2073 01:38:08,280 --> 01:38:10,439 Speaker 6: new his bench to make sure there's enough depth where 2074 01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:13,439 Speaker 6: the Pacers can come at you in waves and if 2075 01:38:13,520 --> 01:38:16,520 Speaker 6: you dedicate too much of your effort. And it's understandable 2076 01:38:16,920 --> 01:38:20,000 Speaker 6: to Halliburton. Siakam has been phenomenal in these playoffs. So 2077 01:38:20,200 --> 01:38:23,200 Speaker 6: I just think that the Pacers are a much better 2078 01:38:23,320 --> 01:38:26,120 Speaker 6: and deeper team than a lot of people realize. And 2079 01:38:26,200 --> 01:38:28,840 Speaker 6: I agree that it's a must win for okay Sack 2080 01:38:28,880 --> 01:38:31,800 Speaker 6: tonight and if they even if okay See does win 2081 01:38:31,920 --> 01:38:35,040 Speaker 6: the game tonight, the Pacers they still have home court 2082 01:38:35,080 --> 01:38:37,240 Speaker 6: after this, and I like their chances going forward. 2083 01:38:37,640 --> 01:38:40,240 Speaker 1: Hi, I want to get to some baseball. So last Thursday, 2084 01:38:40,280 --> 01:38:42,920 Speaker 1: I was at the Dodgers Mets game. Dodgers with a 2085 01:38:43,080 --> 01:38:48,160 Speaker 1: miraculous come from behind victory, Confordo with the game winner. 2086 01:38:48,360 --> 01:38:50,600 Speaker 1: I actually talked to him after the game, right so, 2087 01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:54,040 Speaker 1: like the first time all season that any reporters were 2088 01:38:54,080 --> 01:38:57,000 Speaker 1: talking to Michael Confordo after a Dodgers game. And I 2089 01:38:57,120 --> 01:38:59,400 Speaker 1: asked him, I said, you know, what does it mean 2090 01:38:59,479 --> 01:39:02,080 Speaker 1: to you to to not only have the game winning hit, 2091 01:39:02,160 --> 01:39:04,680 Speaker 1: but to do itains your former team. He looks at 2092 01:39:04,680 --> 01:39:08,120 Speaker 1: me and goes, well, honestly, it really doesn't matter who 2093 01:39:08,280 --> 01:39:11,320 Speaker 1: is it against. It's just a matter of doing it once, like, 2094 01:39:11,439 --> 01:39:14,600 Speaker 1: you know, actually contributing this team. But you know, the 2095 01:39:14,720 --> 01:39:17,200 Speaker 1: Dodgers really have been going sideway. They're even trying to 2096 01:39:17,280 --> 01:39:20,840 Speaker 1: hang on right now. Kershaw gave him a strong outing 2097 01:39:20,960 --> 01:39:24,440 Speaker 1: today five innings, gave up just one run, seven strikeouts, 2098 01:39:24,520 --> 01:39:26,720 Speaker 1: no walks, and their bullpen is trying to hang on 2099 01:39:26,840 --> 01:39:29,200 Speaker 1: as they're unraveling. But I want to talk about the 2100 01:39:29,240 --> 01:39:32,000 Speaker 1: Mets for a second here. Of course, the good fortune 2101 01:39:32,040 --> 01:39:34,679 Speaker 1: of playing the Rockies, I skin, is that in Ripley's 2102 01:39:34,680 --> 01:39:36,840 Speaker 1: believe it or not, that the Rockies won three games 2103 01:39:36,880 --> 01:39:38,760 Speaker 1: in a row on the road against the Marlins. I 2104 01:39:38,840 --> 01:39:40,840 Speaker 1: mean that is going to go down because they've been 2105 01:39:40,880 --> 01:39:43,439 Speaker 1: getting blitzed. They're down eight zip right now to the 2106 01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:46,080 Speaker 1: Mets in the third game of this series. Soda, by 2107 01:39:46,120 --> 01:39:48,920 Speaker 1: the way, three for three today. But how do you 2108 01:39:49,000 --> 01:39:50,840 Speaker 1: look at the Mets right now when you look at 2109 01:39:51,240 --> 01:39:53,880 Speaker 1: the National League at this point, where do the Mets 2110 01:39:54,000 --> 01:39:57,360 Speaker 1: fit in in terms of teams to beat to win 2111 01:39:57,439 --> 01:39:58,320 Speaker 1: the National League? Pennant. 2112 01:39:58,920 --> 01:40:01,639 Speaker 6: So it's a great question because I was actually thinking 2113 01:40:01,680 --> 01:40:04,040 Speaker 6: about this earlier in the week. We actually we were there. 2114 01:40:04,200 --> 01:40:06,600 Speaker 6: We had the MLB Network game on Wednesday, so I 2115 01:40:06,720 --> 01:40:08,200 Speaker 6: was there the night before that. You were there at 2116 01:40:08,240 --> 01:40:12,120 Speaker 6: Dodger Statum. Yeah, it was a great game, a great game, 2117 01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:15,760 Speaker 6: yet not of your Dodger fan. But Pete Alonso had 2118 01:40:15,880 --> 01:40:18,759 Speaker 6: himself another night at Dodger Stadium. And and I mentioned 2119 01:40:18,800 --> 01:40:23,080 Speaker 6: this because the thought I had watching that game and 2120 01:40:23,200 --> 01:40:25,599 Speaker 6: looking at the at the just at the two rosters 2121 01:40:25,640 --> 01:40:28,840 Speaker 6: in front of me, Dodgers Mets. The Mets right now 2122 01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:33,120 Speaker 6: have the most balanced and deepest roster in the National League. 2123 01:40:33,320 --> 01:40:36,040 Speaker 6: I really believe that. And and that may sound a 2124 01:40:36,080 --> 01:40:40,160 Speaker 6: little surprising, but look at Griffin Canning in the rotation, 2125 01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:44,400 Speaker 6: look at code. I Senga the fact that Soto is 2126 01:40:44,479 --> 01:40:46,920 Speaker 6: now getting going in again. I understand it's the Rockies, 2127 01:40:47,320 --> 01:40:49,759 Speaker 6: but he's had a good a good weekend, three it's today. 2128 01:40:50,240 --> 01:40:52,920 Speaker 6: Alonso is one of the best run producers in the 2129 01:40:53,080 --> 01:40:55,760 Speaker 6: entire National League right now. They've had I think some 2130 01:40:55,880 --> 01:41:00,160 Speaker 6: good supplemental offense from different spots. I think Baby has 2131 01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:02,719 Speaker 6: taken a bit of a step. I think they're catching 2132 01:41:02,800 --> 01:41:06,840 Speaker 6: Tanem is solid and again they're bull ten. Big fan 2133 01:41:06,880 --> 01:41:08,200 Speaker 6: of Reed Garrett. I know that was sort of a 2134 01:41:08,240 --> 01:41:10,240 Speaker 6: hard luck game for him that you saw last Thursday. 2135 01:41:10,600 --> 01:41:14,120 Speaker 6: He's been really good. Das has been really good. I 2136 01:41:14,240 --> 01:41:18,479 Speaker 6: just think it's a well managed team. I think Carls 2137 01:41:18,520 --> 01:41:20,920 Speaker 6: Mendoza does an excellent job. He's done a really good 2138 01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:23,680 Speaker 6: job Mendoza as of kind of tamping down some of 2139 01:41:23,760 --> 01:41:26,759 Speaker 6: the talk around Soto in the first third of the season. 2140 01:41:27,080 --> 01:41:29,320 Speaker 6: I think by the time we gets to October, Soto 2141 01:41:29,479 --> 01:41:32,000 Speaker 6: is going to be back to being mostly himself. 2142 01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:32,160 Speaker 1: Now. 2143 01:41:32,240 --> 01:41:34,120 Speaker 6: Is he gonna be as great as he was with 2144 01:41:34,200 --> 01:41:36,400 Speaker 6: the Yankees a year ago, Maybe not, but I think 2145 01:41:36,439 --> 01:41:38,200 Speaker 6: he'll be at least as good, or maybe better than 2146 01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:40,240 Speaker 6: what we saw from him when he was a Padre 2147 01:41:40,680 --> 01:41:43,000 Speaker 6: so which is still, by the way, a really productive player. 2148 01:41:43,320 --> 01:41:46,600 Speaker 6: So you look up and down, Nimo is still a 2149 01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:48,920 Speaker 6: solid player. Lindor, as we know, is one of the 2150 01:41:48,960 --> 01:41:51,640 Speaker 6: great leaders in our sport. I like the Mets, and 2151 01:41:52,400 --> 01:41:54,320 Speaker 6: right now they're playing a lot better than the Phillies. 2152 01:41:54,360 --> 01:41:56,439 Speaker 6: The Phillies have actually hit a bit of a tough stretch. 2153 01:41:56,760 --> 01:41:59,320 Speaker 6: Harper's back on the IL now. I think for a 2154 01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:00,880 Speaker 6: variety of reads, this is the mess of the team. 2155 01:42:00,920 --> 01:42:02,840 Speaker 6: I like the best and the entire National League, not 2156 01:42:02,920 --> 01:42:06,240 Speaker 6: just the NLST. I like that group of players right now. 2157 01:42:06,560 --> 01:42:09,280 Speaker 6: Of course, in the American League, Gosh, the Tigers keep 2158 01:42:09,320 --> 01:42:11,519 Speaker 6: doing it. They win a series, they win a series 2159 01:42:11,560 --> 01:42:13,680 Speaker 6: against the Cubs this weekend. Again, it's not it's not 2160 01:42:13,840 --> 01:42:15,920 Speaker 6: just my mom's favorite team. And the numbers said it 2161 01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:18,639 Speaker 6: pretty darn good. And I like the way the Tigers 2162 01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:19,280 Speaker 6: are playing right now. 2163 01:42:20,479 --> 01:42:23,960 Speaker 2: My man Jping, let's switch over to the NFL because 2164 01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:26,479 Speaker 2: the NFL is always king and we know that uh 2165 01:42:26,840 --> 01:42:31,640 Speaker 2: Ann Rodgers finally signs. It's beneficial with the Pittsburgh Steelers. 2166 01:42:31,840 --> 01:42:34,120 Speaker 1: We have a difference of opinion on this one. Yeah, 2167 01:42:34,160 --> 01:42:34,599 Speaker 1: I'm ready. 2168 01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:37,160 Speaker 2: I am gonna just tell you what I think, and 2169 01:42:37,200 --> 01:42:38,519 Speaker 2: I just want to hear your opinion on it. I 2170 01:42:38,560 --> 01:42:40,639 Speaker 2: think he's gonna burn that place down to the ground. 2171 01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:44,120 Speaker 2: I think this is gonna be timeless, first losing season 2172 01:42:44,200 --> 01:42:47,160 Speaker 2: and forever, because I believe a lot about chemistry. I 2173 01:42:47,280 --> 01:42:49,479 Speaker 2: understand we could compare the quarterbacks from last year and 2174 01:42:49,520 --> 01:42:51,760 Speaker 2: then saying, hey, well, Ann Rodgers can't be no worse 2175 01:42:51,840 --> 01:42:58,560 Speaker 2: than that, and that's very that's very valid. But chemistry, attitude, energy, personality, camaraderie, 2176 01:42:58,720 --> 01:43:01,960 Speaker 2: it means, and we've seen it pour out lately in 2177 01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:03,240 Speaker 2: the last few years with this guy. 2178 01:43:03,640 --> 01:43:04,639 Speaker 1: It just doesn't work. 2179 01:43:04,960 --> 01:43:07,439 Speaker 2: Am I hating too much on Ann Rodgers? Or is 2180 01:43:07,439 --> 01:43:11,200 Speaker 2: it the Pittsburgh Steelers plus five hundred train gonna keep 2181 01:43:11,320 --> 01:43:14,000 Speaker 2: rolling on? Does this man just pull this thing down 2182 01:43:14,080 --> 01:43:16,360 Speaker 2: to the ground and they just go what the heck 2183 01:43:16,439 --> 01:43:17,040 Speaker 2: were we thinking? 2184 01:43:17,640 --> 01:43:22,439 Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers? Since twenty twenty one, last three seasons, he 2185 01:43:22,600 --> 01:43:25,519 Speaker 6: is fourteen and twenty one. There we go, he is 2186 01:43:25,720 --> 01:43:30,160 Speaker 6: fourteen and twenty one and he is forty one years old. 2187 01:43:32,320 --> 01:43:35,519 Speaker 6: That combination of numbers, and again it's the story's deeper 2188 01:43:35,560 --> 01:43:40,679 Speaker 6: than that, and so there's even there's the chemistry piece 2189 01:43:40,960 --> 01:43:44,400 Speaker 6: and potential distractions. Just there's been a lot of controversy 2190 01:43:44,400 --> 01:43:46,000 Speaker 6: surrounding in the last couple of years. I get all that, 2191 01:43:46,560 --> 01:43:50,920 Speaker 6: But the bare facts of things, okay, is that he's 2192 01:43:51,000 --> 01:43:54,400 Speaker 6: a forty one year old quarterback who is fourteen and 2193 01:43:54,560 --> 01:43:58,719 Speaker 6: twenty one over the last three seasons combined, and typically 2194 01:43:58,760 --> 01:44:05,200 Speaker 6: when you're forty one, your performance athletically does not get better. 2195 01:44:05,880 --> 01:44:08,640 Speaker 6: I'll just make that point. And so I would have 2196 01:44:08,760 --> 01:44:11,080 Speaker 6: to look at this and say, what evidence do we 2197 01:44:11,160 --> 01:44:13,120 Speaker 6: have to say that he is going to be a 2198 01:44:13,280 --> 01:44:17,160 Speaker 6: difference maker? And aren't there other quarterbacks that you could 2199 01:44:17,200 --> 01:44:21,559 Speaker 6: acquire that that would be at least as as competent 2200 01:44:21,760 --> 01:44:24,560 Speaker 6: as him, who might be younger, and you could have 2201 01:44:24,760 --> 01:44:28,439 Speaker 6: as maybe someone that you build around a little bit. 2202 01:44:28,960 --> 01:44:31,719 Speaker 6: At this point, even if he has a year fimilar 2203 01:44:31,720 --> 01:44:34,880 Speaker 6: to what he had last year, which was basically a 2204 01:44:34,960 --> 01:44:39,320 Speaker 6: barely average year from a standpoint of quarterback efficiency, et cetera, 2205 01:44:40,520 --> 01:44:42,840 Speaker 6: there are other players in this league who could come 2206 01:44:42,880 --> 01:44:47,120 Speaker 6: in and do something approximating that and also be part 2207 01:44:47,200 --> 01:44:49,960 Speaker 6: of your future. It's a really hard thing to do 2208 01:44:50,080 --> 01:44:52,000 Speaker 6: to bring in a forty one year old and say, well, 2209 01:44:52,040 --> 01:44:54,360 Speaker 6: this is the this is the vision for the future 2210 01:44:54,439 --> 01:44:57,760 Speaker 6: we're building. I just I have a hard time. I 2211 01:44:57,840 --> 01:45:00,120 Speaker 6: have a hard time seeing this as being a a 2212 01:45:00,240 --> 01:45:03,599 Speaker 6: really smart short and long term play when you consider 2213 01:45:03,680 --> 01:45:05,840 Speaker 6: again how often you look at the history of the game, 2214 01:45:06,120 --> 01:45:09,479 Speaker 6: how many of how many above average you can look 2215 01:45:09,479 --> 01:45:12,400 Speaker 6: at all the above average quarterback passing seasons in the 2216 01:45:12,479 --> 01:45:14,840 Speaker 6: history of the games, how many of them have been 2217 01:45:14,880 --> 01:45:17,160 Speaker 6: delivered by quarterbacks who are forty one years of agent 2218 01:45:17,200 --> 01:45:18,360 Speaker 6: Olden Well. 2219 01:45:18,240 --> 01:45:21,000 Speaker 1: All of them probably with Tom Brady. Look at JP. 2220 01:45:21,200 --> 01:45:23,240 Speaker 1: You know, I love you, VJ, I love you. You 2221 01:45:23,720 --> 01:45:25,680 Speaker 1: guys are so wrong in this one. And by the way, 2222 01:45:25,840 --> 01:45:28,080 Speaker 1: when he gave him fourteen and twenty one, that's a gift. 2223 01:45:28,120 --> 01:45:30,160 Speaker 1: It's really thirteen and twenty one because he got the 2224 01:45:30,240 --> 01:45:32,840 Speaker 1: one to oh two years ago. Well, you know he 2225 01:45:32,920 --> 01:45:34,960 Speaker 1: goes down on like the first play. The Jets did 2226 01:45:35,080 --> 01:45:37,040 Speaker 1: win that game the first series. Yeah, he played the 2227 01:45:37,080 --> 01:45:39,599 Speaker 1: fourth series, and Zach Wilson actually came in and four. 2228 01:45:39,680 --> 01:45:42,720 Speaker 1: But I am telling you it's about the organization. If 2229 01:45:42,800 --> 01:45:47,040 Speaker 1: the Steelers can pull off these last four seasons. Roethlisbergers 2230 01:45:47,080 --> 01:45:49,240 Speaker 1: last year where he could barely throw the ball fifteen 2231 01:45:49,320 --> 01:45:52,960 Speaker 1: yards down the field, and with Kenny Pickett and yeah, 2232 01:45:53,600 --> 01:45:57,479 Speaker 1: Jason Mason Rudolph and Justin Fields and Russell Wilson. They 2233 01:45:57,520 --> 01:46:00,800 Speaker 1: can pull off winning seasons with those guys. Yeah, they 2234 01:46:00,840 --> 01:46:02,840 Speaker 1: can pull off a winning season with a forty one 2235 01:46:02,920 --> 01:46:04,360 Speaker 1: year old Aaron Rodgers one. 2236 01:46:04,360 --> 01:46:07,639 Speaker 6: Quick point Roethlisberger when he was on his very very 2237 01:46:07,840 --> 01:46:11,479 Speaker 6: last legs there as a Steers quarterback. He was thirty nine. Okay, 2238 01:46:11,560 --> 01:46:13,240 Speaker 6: he was two years younger than one. 2239 01:46:13,360 --> 01:46:16,360 Speaker 1: Roy right now, I know, I know, I know, all right, Well, 2240 01:46:16,400 --> 01:46:19,559 Speaker 1: you guys will be wrong. That's okay. Everyone's perfect all 2241 01:46:19,640 --> 01:46:21,839 Speaker 1: the time, although I try to be as close as possible. 2242 01:46:22,920 --> 01:46:25,400 Speaker 1: Once again, JP will love you man, Enjoy the rest 2243 01:46:25,479 --> 01:46:27,920 Speaker 1: of your day, and we'll talk to you again next week. 2244 01:46:28,479 --> 01:46:29,960 Speaker 6: Always love the conversation, my friend. 2245 01:46:30,000 --> 01:46:32,320 Speaker 1: Thank you for the God bless there.

The over runners a great record because it means 2255 01:46:57,479 --> 01:46:59,720 Speaker 1: either they'll have a winning record because nine wins would 2256 01:46:59,720 --> 01:47:02,599 Speaker 1: be nine or losing record eight and nine?

I mean, you could can't shoot the ball. 2449 01:54:52,120 --> 01:54:53,640 Speaker 1: We can't do and all that kind of stuff. All right, 2450 01:54:54,600 --> 01:54:58,640 Speaker 1: The twenty twenty four to twenty five Indiana Pacers just 2451 01:54:58,720 --> 01:55:01,640 Speaker 1: had a phenomenal postseason. So remember they open up against 2452 01:55:01,640 --> 01:55:03,280 Speaker 1: the Bucks and what do they do. They had the 2453 01:55:03,320 --> 01:55:06,040 Speaker 1: first two games at home and they won them. Then 2454 01:55:06,040 --> 01:55:08,919 Speaker 1: they go against the one seed Cleveland. They go into Cleveland, 2455 01:55:08,960 --> 01:55:12,680 Speaker 1: win two in a row series over. Then they go 2456 01:55:12,840 --> 01:55:15,040 Speaker 1: up against the Knicks. They go into New York, win 2457 01:55:15,080 --> 01:55:17,520 Speaker 1: the first two games in New York. I mean, when 2458 01:55:17,600 --> 01:55:19,720 Speaker 1: you do that, you know what it reminds me of 2459 01:55:19,840 --> 01:55:23,120 Speaker 1: In twenty twelve the La Kings, they were an eight 2460 01:55:23,240 --> 01:55:26,800 Speaker 1: seed and in all four playoff series they won the 2461 01:55:26,840 --> 01:55:30,640 Speaker 1: first two games on the road. In four consecutive series, 2462 01:55:31,360 --> 01:55:35,360 Speaker 1: they won the first two games on the road and 2463 01:55:35,560 --> 01:55:39,680 Speaker 1: ended up winning the Stanley Cup. Now the Pacers tonight 2464 01:55:39,800 --> 01:55:42,320 Speaker 1: have a chance to do it for the third consecutive 2465 01:55:42,480 --> 01:55:47,520 Speaker 1: series of winning the first two games on the road. 2466 01:55:49,440 --> 01:55:52,360 Speaker 1: It was enough to take out the Calves, it was 2467 01:55:52,560 --> 01:55:56,200 Speaker 1: enough to take out the Knicks. So now the question 2468 01:55:56,360 --> 01:55:58,920 Speaker 1: going into Game two is will they do it for 2469 01:55:59,040 --> 01:56:01,960 Speaker 1: the third series in a row winning two games on 2470 01:56:02,280 --> 01:56:06,320 Speaker 1: the road. Also, keep in mind the Pacers average margin 2471 01:56:06,400 --> 01:56:08,520 Speaker 1: of victory after a loss in the postseason, because they 2472 01:56:08,560 --> 01:56:10,520 Speaker 1: haven't lost back to back playoff games through that. In 2473 01:56:10,560 --> 01:56:14,040 Speaker 1: the Pirate postseason, average margin of victory coming off of 2474 01:56:14,120 --> 01:56:18,480 Speaker 1: loss is over twenty points. So that's what you're faced 2475 01:56:18,520 --> 01:56:23,560 Speaker 1: with as you ponder your final call on tonight's game. 2476 01:56:24,000 --> 01:56:25,680 Speaker 2: That's nothing to pond or I already know I am. 2477 01:56:26,160 --> 01:56:28,000 Speaker 2: Last week, I threw some numbers out there about these 2478 01:56:28,080 --> 01:56:30,280 Speaker 2: Pacers and they proved true in Game one. Number one 2479 01:56:30,320 --> 01:56:33,560 Speaker 2: field goal percenting, field goal percentage team in the league, 2480 01:56:33,960 --> 01:56:36,680 Speaker 2: number one scoring team in the league last game forty 2481 01:56:36,720 --> 01:56:39,640 Speaker 2: seven percent from the field, forty six percent from the field, 2482 01:56:39,680 --> 01:56:42,640 Speaker 2: and three point shooting. That doesn't go away. I'm telling 2483 01:56:42,680 --> 01:56:44,720 Speaker 2: you guys right now, Oklahoma City is in a lot 2484 01:56:44,760 --> 01:56:46,360 Speaker 2: of trouble. They're in a lot of trouble. 2485 01:56:46,480 --> 01:56:46,840 Speaker 3: Number one. 2486 01:56:47,120 --> 01:56:50,120 Speaker 2: Game one was not an anomaly. It wasn't luck. This 2487 01:56:50,320 --> 01:56:52,520 Speaker 2: is who they are, this is what they do, this 2488 01:56:52,680 --> 01:56:55,680 Speaker 2: is what they've been doing all postseason. And it's supposed 2489 01:56:55,720 --> 01:56:58,440 Speaker 2: to just all go away and one night and we've 2490 01:56:58,480 --> 01:57:00,800 Speaker 2: seen SGA having to try to kill to mantle and 2491 01:57:00,920 --> 01:57:03,560 Speaker 2: it did not work. Thirty eight points, But as we mentioned, 2492 01:57:03,680 --> 01:57:06,360 Speaker 2: Jaylen Williams, where are you? Check Holgrim, where are you? 2493 01:57:06,640 --> 01:57:08,880 Speaker 2: But these two guys aren't those guys, man, They're good 2494 01:57:08,960 --> 01:57:11,360 Speaker 2: and great role players and defenders in dort in the 2495 01:57:11,400 --> 01:57:14,200 Speaker 2: regular season, first team, all defensive, all that good stuff. Guys, 2496 01:57:14,240 --> 01:57:16,280 Speaker 2: I get it. But when you're on this level, don't 2497 01:57:16,280 --> 01:57:18,200 Speaker 2: none of that matter. None of that matters. Nothing you 2498 01:57:18,240 --> 01:57:21,200 Speaker 2: did in the regular season matters, but your experience and 2499 01:57:21,280 --> 01:57:25,000 Speaker 2: what you have. And once again, Rick Carlisle, I will 2500 01:57:25,120 --> 01:57:28,800 Speaker 2: take him over. I'll take the Indiana coaching staff over 2501 01:57:28,960 --> 01:57:33,120 Speaker 2: the Oklahoma City coaching staff any given day, the Pacers 2502 01:57:33,240 --> 01:57:35,360 Speaker 2: in a close game tonight, it may look it may 2503 01:57:35,480 --> 01:57:38,680 Speaker 2: balloons of fifteen sixteen, hell the last one with the seventeen, 2504 01:57:39,080 --> 01:57:42,080 Speaker 2: But the Pacers just cannot be counted out. I'll take 2505 01:57:42,160 --> 01:57:45,480 Speaker 2: them to the keep the energy going. They'll still gain 2506 01:57:45,520 --> 01:57:50,560 Speaker 2: to tonight and almost almost, not quite, but almost put 2507 01:57:50,600 --> 01:57:53,240 Speaker 2: the nail on the coffin. And this finals, as I predicted, 2508 01:57:53,240 --> 01:57:56,160 Speaker 2: the Pacers the winner. Give me the Pacers tonight they 2509 01:57:56,240 --> 01:57:57,960 Speaker 2: go up too. Oh they've been doing it. Why went out? 2510 01:57:57,960 --> 01:57:59,760 Speaker 2: Why went not picking the Forbes Tracers? 2511 01:58:00,120 --> 01:58:04,360 Speaker 1: I sat here a week ago and said the Pacers 2512 01:58:04,400 --> 01:58:06,600 Speaker 1: would be lucky to win a game I had made up. 2513 01:58:06,880 --> 01:58:08,440 Speaker 1: Is going to be a sweep or is it gonna 2514 01:58:08,440 --> 01:58:10,080 Speaker 1: be five sweep or five back? 2515 01:58:10,120 --> 01:58:11,840 Speaker 2: You thought they get blew out in Game one? You 2516 01:58:11,880 --> 01:58:13,320 Speaker 2: thought was gonna be a blow up. 2517 01:58:13,320 --> 01:58:15,560 Speaker 1: They're gonna blow They're gonna get blown out. And guess what, 2518 01:58:15,680 --> 01:58:20,480 Speaker 1: they were down big in Game one until the very end. 2519 01:58:22,200 --> 01:58:26,240 Speaker 1: The demeanor of Shay Gilgess Alexander after the loss. I 2520 01:58:26,360 --> 01:58:30,640 Speaker 1: thought he was on point in terms of his analysis 2521 01:58:30,720 --> 01:58:34,960 Speaker 1: of what happened. He wasn't making any excuses. He goes, 2522 01:58:35,240 --> 01:58:37,680 Speaker 1: you know, but he has faith that this team understands 2523 01:58:37,720 --> 01:58:40,560 Speaker 1: what they're gonna do. Look, you've got to figure out 2524 01:58:40,760 --> 01:58:42,920 Speaker 1: how to get more out of chet Holger. You know, 2525 01:58:43,120 --> 01:58:47,240 Speaker 1: six points, that's not gonna happen. Jalen Williams is gonna 2526 01:58:47,280 --> 01:58:49,880 Speaker 1: have to be an All NBA player, which he was 2527 01:58:50,560 --> 01:58:52,480 Speaker 1: but certainly wasn't in Game one with his six or 2528 01:58:52,560 --> 01:58:56,200 Speaker 1: nineteen shooting. This first game was very similar to Game 2529 01:58:56,240 --> 01:58:59,280 Speaker 1: one against their series against Denver. Denver pulled it out late. 2530 01:59:00,240 --> 01:59:03,840 Speaker 1: Next game. Okay, see won by forty three. It won't 2531 01:59:03,880 --> 01:59:07,480 Speaker 1: be forty three, but it will be twenty plus. I 2532 01:59:07,600 --> 01:59:11,720 Speaker 1: see an easy Oklahoma City now I don't know beyond that. 2533 01:59:11,880 --> 01:59:14,360 Speaker 1: We're gonna take this one game at tie right, right, 2534 01:59:14,560 --> 01:59:18,080 Speaker 1: you know, because by the time we're back here next Sunday, 2535 01:59:19,200 --> 01:59:22,760 Speaker 1: either the year will be a sweep and already over, 2536 01:59:24,320 --> 01:59:25,800 Speaker 1: or we'll be looking at a game five. 2537 01:59:26,160 --> 01:59:29,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's either gonna be two two night or three 2538 01:59:29,040 --> 01:59:31,200 Speaker 2: to one. Is either gonna be two two or three 2539 01:59:31,200 --> 01:59:32,120 Speaker 2: one by the time we get there. 2540 01:59:32,080 --> 01:59:34,040 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, yeah, and then we'll have that money game. 2541 01:59:35,360 --> 01:59:37,760 Speaker 1: Bagase the money game. But as far as tonight's game 2542 01:59:37,840 --> 01:59:40,080 Speaker 1: is concerned, I think Oklahoma City is that good. This 2543 01:59:40,160 --> 01:59:42,480 Speaker 1: is a sixty eight win team. I'm sorry. Indiana is 2544 01:59:42,520 --> 01:59:45,280 Speaker 1: a great story. They play hard, uh, but this is 2545 01:59:45,320 --> 01:59:47,520 Speaker 1: gonna be one of those games where it's gonna be, 2546 01:59:48,000 --> 01:59:51,560 Speaker 1: you know, not winnable, and Oklahoma City will pull away 2547 01:59:51,600 --> 01:59:53,680 Speaker 1: in the end. They can put an explanation. Boy, get 2548 01:59:53,720 --> 01:59:57,120 Speaker 1: their fans into it. Yeah, we're back. We're back. That's 2549 01:59:57,160 --> 01:59:59,880 Speaker 1: where we're gonna be at the end of game two. 2550 02:00:00,200 --> 02:00:00,400 Speaker 6: Okay. 2551 02:00:00,480 --> 02:00:02,440 Speaker 1: Right, the next week, we're gonna have the US Open 2552 02:00:02,560 --> 02:00:05,280 Speaker 1: Golf going on. We're gonna have a lot of goodies. 2553 02:00:05,360 --> 02:00:07,200 Speaker 2: I have a lot to talk about next Sunday. 2554 02:00:07,480 --> 02:00:11,280 Speaker 1: Absolutely, have a great day and keep it here on 2555 02:00:11,320 --> 02:00:12,160 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio,
