17
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,959
Speaker 1: we are, Game one of the NBA Finals. Thunder lead

18
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 1: the Pacers sixty five fifty three, eight minutes to go

19
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: on the third quarter. Let me take a look at

20
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: my my checklist of reasons why I picked the Thunder

21
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 1: and five hang on SGA will do his thing. Check

22
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 1: The Thunder defense is unlike what the Pacers have seen

23
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: before in the playoffs, and that's going to bring them

24
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: the championship. Check. Okay, everything going according to plan, my carbon,

25
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: my evil plan. Everything is going according to plan. Yes,

26
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 1: the thunder doing exactly what I thought they would do.

27
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: I feel like I should be petting in a white

28
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: cat very in a very evil way. Going. Yes, mister Bond,

29
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 1: it's all going according to plan.

30
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 3: Playing haphazard offense in the first half, did the Indiana

31
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 3: Pacers credit to the ok see defense, but a lot

32
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 3: of unforced and let's just play hot potato with the basketball.

33
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 3: You know, the Pacers have done a good job defensively

34
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 3: though you look at it.

35
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 4: Okay, see they're only shooting thirty nine percent. Job Exauce Sga.

36
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: Sga is carrying them like he you know, which is

37
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: what MVPs and great players do. Okay. Game one of

38
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: the NBA Finals is gonna be a little different, all right.

39
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a little bit of nerves, a little

40
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: bit of getting used to things. Get on my back,

41
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 1: Get on my back, because I got it and he's

42
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: had them the entire way.

43
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 3: So far, allowed them to battle a bunch you know.

44
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 3: One of the things as you're watching it listening to it.

45
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 3: Whatever you're seeing, the physicality that we talked about would

46
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 3: be part of this series, certainly on display full cord press.

47
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 3: The only thing missing was the floor slap, like they

48
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 3: were Woja Howski going back to the Duke days.

49
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, that's right.

50
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 3: I got a Wojo reference in three minutes in as

51
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 3: we go.

52
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,920
Speaker 1: In, you got bombing, Yeah, I.

53
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 4: Got a I remember that guy.

54
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:48,359
Speaker 3: I remember anyway, So you're watching just the implosion of

55
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 3: a squad, yet they're hanging around. You can't play any worse,

56
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,520
Speaker 3: except you know, defensively, they did a pretty good job

57
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 3: to cap the results of all those turnovers, big sloppy

58
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 3: nineteen in the first half, but the points off turnovers

59
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 3: is only nine. That's not terrible. That's a good job

60
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 3: of covering up your deficiencies, kind of like they did

61
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 3: against your beloved Knicks a series ago. But yeah, if

62
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 3: you don't take care of the basketball, you got no

63
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 3: shot against the squad's And you.

64
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: Know, see this game unfold, right, and you know, we

65
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 1: talked about the Thunder defense and we gave you all

66
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: kinds of reasons why this is going to be a

67
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: Thunder victory. Right. The way they play defense the Pacers

68
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 1: are used to one level of defense they saw in

69
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference Finals against the Knicks, and it's not

70
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 1: like the thunder have come out full court press, you know,

71
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: forcing these bad pass You know, this is not forty

72
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: minutes a hell Arkansas Razor back of the nineteen nineties,

73
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: going back to the nineties and college basketball, but this

74
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: is the Pacers are finding out. Oh crap, because this

75
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: is what like you would say, you watch them play

76
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: in the first half, and you would say, well, this

77
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 1: is kind of exactly how they played against the Knicks,

78
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 1: except it worked because the Knicks are a bad defensive team.

79
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: All these passes they tried to make. Wait a minute, guys,

80
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,120
Speaker 1: usually oh here at the end of the shot clock,

81
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: like the Pacers are trying to you know, first game

82
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: and trying to feel things out, obviously, but the Pacers

83
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: they're just playing the same game. This looks like the

84
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: same kind of game they tried to play against the Knicks,

85
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: except they're finding out. Oh, when a team is better defensively,

86
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: it's really more difficult. I'm shocked. I can't believe this.

87
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: And there's only so much you can do if you're

88
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: Rick Carlo's only so much you can do with your

89
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 1: the pacers. You can plan for different things. Sometimes you

90
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: just have to see it to understand that. Okay, now

91
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: that I've seen it, we can make adjustments. It's a

92
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: critical Game one for the Thunder to continue on to

93
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: win this game because you know the Pacers will adjust

94
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: after seeing this and you know going into game two.

95
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: But this so far is the Pacers realizing that, oh,

96
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 1: we're doing the same things we did three days ago,

97
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: and wow, we are just getting absolutely boat race while

98
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 1: we're doing it.

99
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 3: Turnovers twenty one to four, thus far, rebounding wise, a

100
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 3: decided advantage for the Pacers in this one. We saw

101
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 3: the change in the starting line of Hartenstein went to

102
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 3: the bench to start things and then he came off

103
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 3: and he was a fire starter when he did come

104
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 3: off the bench, seven and four and a plus seven

105
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 3: for him in his eight minutes of action. I mean,

106
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 3: they've already gone eleven deep, you know, because Williams came

107
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 3: off the bench for a minute. So you know, you're

108
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 3: you're getting everybody involved, which is what we we predicted

109
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 3: what happen as this series went went and flowed is

110
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 3: that you know you're you're gonna play up tempo. You're

111
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 3: gonna play with pace, uh, and you're gonna have to

112
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 3: try to slow things down, change things.

113
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 4: Up as you go.

114
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 3: Wallace got the start twenty minutes for him, he's two

115
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 3: of five from the field thus far. But for the

116
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,640
Speaker 3: Indiana side, you've seen Siakam come out and he's running

117
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 3: the floor and he's making plays. But while he's filling

118
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 3: up the stat sheet thus far, for Tyrese Haliburton, you're

119
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 3: looking at a two of six effort right now, five

120
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 3: of those being three point shots, which is not his game.

121
00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: And so again sixty seven to fifty five. And I

122
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: love that they're they're putting out all these these right

123
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: away facts off of the internet right now. And I

124
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: mean they're putting up who do you believe? You know?

125
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 4: Who you know?

126
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: Trump or Musk?

127
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 2: Who do you like?

128
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 1: Who side do you want? Who you got you? No,

129
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: they're putting up just seven minutes these good ball dude,

130
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: Come on, man, I mean Trump versus Musk has been

131
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 1: I mean that's bigger than Indiana.

132
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 4: Oh, money in the bank is Saturday, plenty of time

133
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 4: to get it on the car.

134
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 5: Kendrick versus Drake, but only two Drakes.

135
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: I mean watching this today is just it's it's absolute insanity.

136
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 1: But I would be it would be a great final four,

137
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 1: Like say, this wasn't the NBA Finals, it was Hey,

138
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,719
Speaker 1: the winner of Oklahoma City, Indiana takes on the winner

139
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: of Trump Musk like that, that's what happens that these

140
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: guys are both playing for a spot in the finals.

141
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: But I love that they put up you know, the

142
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: Google instant searches that up twenty six hundred percent. They

143
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 1: just put this on the screen. I think it's pretty cool.

144
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: Up twenty six hundred percent on the internet right now

145
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: are the searches most turnoff person in NBA Finals game

146
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 1: like that, that is what the most people are searching

147
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 1: right now on the Internet. And I think that's pretty

148
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: cool when you when you can bring stuff like that

149
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: up and make that part of the broadcast. Because yeah,

150
00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: I'm sure that that is the number one thing of

151
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: man twenty one turnovers. We're midway through the third quarter.

152
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: What the hell is going on here?

153
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 4: Well, but that's it.

154
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 3: You you can now get stats for everything, like we

155
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 3: we always have our guys Steve de Sager, and he

156
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 3: cites the great statistician in baseball analysts, Sarah langs often

157
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 3: and you know, off her Twitter account and now commemorated

158
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 3: with the top set and all that stuff. And certainly

159
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 3: for the NBA people are trying to match up for

160
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 3: the finals, it's like we're just gonna inundate you with

161
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 3: different stats. No team has ever done X, no team,

162
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 3: no player has ever done X. I mean that Halliburton

163
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 3: statistics against the Knicks. Now he didn't win the series, MVP,

164
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 3: but how many times was it?

165
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 4: Really? You just had that one at the ready?

166
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 3: At no point has any player done this, this, this

167
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 3: and this together, like all right now, now we're just

168
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 3: inventing statistics that uh and and categories and used to

169
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 3: just be when was the last time a player recorded

170
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 3: a no hitter?

171
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:14,239
Speaker 4: Great?

172
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 3: No, Now it's how many guys took a no hitter

173
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 3: into the seventh before plunking a guy on a shoe

174
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 3: and fracturing an ankle.

175
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 4: You know, I mean things like that.

176
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 1: Jason Smith Mike Harmon live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. Now,

177
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: now tell me the truth. I don't want you to

178
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,840
Speaker 1: lie and just say oh no, no, no, no, no way,

179
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 1: no no. I just don't want you to lie. Tell

180
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: me the tell you, tell me the truth, because I

181
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 1: think you have to agree with me on this is that.

182
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 1: Doesn't it feel like and and this again? This is

183
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,559
Speaker 1: this is fun for me because I get that it's

184
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 1: kind of my way of of my team being in it.

185
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: But doesn't it feel like the specter of the Knicks

186
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: is just hanging over this NBA Finals like that, just

187
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 1: the just to spect the Knicks, the conversation, the firing

188
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: of Tibbs and what are they going to do next?

189
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: And and the Pacers winning and had and the big

190
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: rivalry like here they are. Doesn't it feel Doesn't it

191
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: feel like the Knicks the presence, the aura is just

192
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: is just hanging over kind of like in Harry Potter

193
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: in Goblet of Fire, when you know Voldemort's back and

194
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: and he hangs over the whole book and it's like, oh,

195
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 1: what are you gonna se him? What are you gonna see?

196
00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: He just hangs over the whole book and you finally

197
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: see him, you know, at the end, it's like, oh

198
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 1: my goodness. Like that's kind of what the NBA Finals

199
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: feels like me, Like the specter of the Knicks is

200
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: just hanging over everything going on.

201
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 4: Well, it's certainly there.

202
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,559
Speaker 3: I mean, because look there's gonna be dead points, especially

203
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 3: if you know the thunder eventually take care of all

204
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,320
Speaker 3: of the carelessness by Indiana see what I did there

205
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 3: is and actually do something with all those turnovers. Then

206
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 3: it becomes a blowout, which means, let's fill some time.

207
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 3: Oh what are we gonna fill time with Aaron Rodgers

208
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 3: to the Steelers. No, we're gonna talk about the Knicks

209
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 3: and they're gonna have a parade of all Now they

210
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 3: can't photoshop them into the uniform, but into the different suit,

211
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 3: combination suit and tie, maybe a hocket square and you'll

212
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 3: just go through the forty seven candidates for the next job,

213
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 3: and you'll just do that bit by bit, game by

214
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 3: game of the series as it gets away, and eventually, okay,

215
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 3: see finishes the job. But until then, it's more about

216
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 3: the why do we not have a picture in picture

217
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 3: of Paul George?

218
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 4: Who's he rooting for?

219
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 3: I don't think it is blueprint, you know, is his

220
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:24,599
Speaker 3: footprint is on Bold squads?

221
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: Yeah? I know, but I don't think. I think just

222
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: interesting now, I think if you're Paul George, you're you're

223
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 1: rooting for both teams to lose. It's like, you know,

224
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: I tried it with both these teams, and I left

225
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 1: and both of them look at them back in the

226
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: finals when I'm not there. It's like when I was

227
00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: met for the Patriots Giant Super Bowl, when I was like, okay,

228
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 1: at the both of them. I said, at least I

229
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: know one of them is gonna lose. I just have

230
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,120
Speaker 1: to figure out which team I want to lose more.

231
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: But it doesn't matter because in the end, if the

232
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: team that I want to lose doesn't lose, at least

233
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 1: I know the other one's gonna lose. So that's kind

234
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: of where I think. If you're Paul George as well,

235
00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: you know I'd love there to be just be a tie.

236
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 1: Or you know, the Knicks. The Knicks hire somebody that

237
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 1: just makes people stop, uh watching the NBA Finals, Like, hey,

238
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: you get a big push, and hey, the Knicks are

239
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: hiring Steve Kerr as their new head coach and he's

240
00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: bringing Steph Curry with him to New York. Like that,

241
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 1: we wouldn't need the finals. It would be okay, sorry,

242
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: because of lack of interest, We're stopping the finals and

243
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,839
Speaker 1: it's all going to be about Steph Curry and Steve

244
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: Kerr joining the Knicks like that that that would be

245
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 1: the only thing that that would stop that from happening,

246
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: which I love and Paul George would love to be

247
00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: both of us on the same island.

248
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

249
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 3: But to be fair though, Jason, I mean, the big

250
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 3: complaint about these finals is nobody's watching anyway, so you

251
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 3: don't have to pause anything.

252
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 4: They can play off on their side channel.

253
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 3: We don't preemp this for Nicks that has been relegated

254
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 3: to Well, no, it's splitting screen with the impractical Jokers.

255
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's but it's good because it makes me

256
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: feel like the Knicks are kind of in the finals,

257
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: like they're kind.

258
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 3: Of like I mean that by all the guys that

259
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 3: are former Knicks that are part of this. I mean

260
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 3: I just saw be Top and he hit a three

261
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,439
Speaker 3: point shot. Yeah, you want to talk about a guy

262
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 3: who was uh saboteur in the first quarter, Wow, but

263
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 3: hits a big three. We got an eleven point game

264
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 3: with three minutes left in the first half. But there's

265
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 3: Knicks or I should say x Nicks all over the place.

266
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you can at least find some solace that

267
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,679
Speaker 1: it really was you and not them. I mean, really,

268
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: maybe maybe you know hot take, the best team in

269
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: the NBA the last five years is the Knicks. Look

270
00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: at look at the blueprint of all wes.

271
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:31,920
Speaker 4: No. No, there was a bigger failure.

272
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, because we've talked about we couldn't have

273
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: all of that. We couldn't have We couldn't have Top

274
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: in the same time as we had other guys. Right,

275
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 1: we couldn't have Hertenstein because we signed other guys. We

276
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: had to trade Julius Randall and Dante DiVincenzo for Karl

277
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: Anthony Tawns. It's maybe the Knicks roster of the last

278
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 1: five years, they were the best that we can hang

279
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:52,959
Speaker 1: a banner with that in MSG.

280
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 3: Now, hot take it. We'll put it up as a

281
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 3: poll question. I'd say, open the phone lines. Would you

282
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 3: have rather they not have made the deals, kept Randal

283
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 3: de Vincenzo and Hart and Stein and run.

284
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 4: It back eight seven? No, I'm just kidding.

285
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: The best team in the NBA the last five years?

286
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: This editions the New York Mix.

287
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 3: See I just Fano snapped out of existence in the

288
00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 3: next timeline and gave you your other guys back.

289
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:22,200
Speaker 1: Well, I gotta say, if you said, hey, can you

290
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: have those guys back, I would go, I think I

291
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: might like to have those guys, which which I believe

292
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: if you turned back time, it was something this guy

293
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: was going ECU again because again, honestly, what did I

294
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: tell you. Another big reason why Tims got fired, whether

295
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: the Knicks are hanging over the finals is Look, they

296
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: were just out talenting teams when they were winning games,

297
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: right because I had the most talented starting five in

298
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 1: the NBA. But were they playing together? Was it working? Again?

299
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: We talked about this. They were just out talenting teams.

300
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 1: They didn't work together. Kat was a very difficult fit.

301
00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: It took mcal Bridges so long to get his role involved,

302
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: and now Josh Hart wasn't the same role as he

303
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: had last year. I mean really it was. It makes sense.

304
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: More time goes on and I think people are coming

305
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 1: around and say, oh, yeah, I kind of see why

306
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: they fired Tips. I can't say what happened. He had

307
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,560
Speaker 1: a good run and he gets thirty million dollars to

308
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 1: go away.

309
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 4: Why are well this is true, TIBs.

310
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: This is true. This is true, and he goes into

311
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,079
Speaker 1: the Business Hall of Fame. He doesn't have to coach

312
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: a day on that extension. If you watch the Ai

313
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: Tips video after he got fired here, you might have

314
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: a little bit different different perception of Tips.

315
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 6: Uh.

316
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,760

Speaker 1: with fifteen. Meanwhile, Halliburton with ten. Siakam has thirteen and

323
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: twenty one turnovers for the Pacers, who somehow are in

324
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: this game when it should be a thirty point lead

325
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: right now for Oklahoma City. So we'll have more on

326
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: this game coming up Game one of the NBA Finals

327
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: through out the rest of the show. But straight ahead, boy,

328
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: do we have something for you because Michael it's not. No,

329
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: it's not Michael Conforto's rb I. You don't have that. No,

330
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 1: you have to pick a lane, Frostburg. You can't. Last night,

331
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: all might say, Jason, you're talking about a baseball series

332
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 1: in June. What does it matter.

333
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,000
Speaker 2: Against his old team?

334
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 6: No? Who does con sweet prelay, Dodgers have taken the

335
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 6: lad and it's Michael Conforida that's delivered.

336
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 1: In your choice problematic but hey, you know, but but

337
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 1: you know you last, Oh, Jason, it doesn't it's a

338
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: it's a series in June. What does it matter? And now?

339
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 1: But you can't honk it up today. You got to

340
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: pick a lane either. It doesn't matter.

341
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 4: It's in June about Michael Conforto.

342
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: It's it's about Conforido getting a hit when everybody has

343
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,040
Speaker 1: packed his bags, packed his house.

344
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 3: How many times do we see that with coaches there's

345
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,640
Speaker 3: four sale signs on their lawns.

346
00:15:57,960 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 4: Canforida was that guy?

347
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: Yeah? Actually it's Mets in seven because the Mets won.

348
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:03,920
Speaker 1: That's in the series with the Dodgers for to three

349
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: this year. So Mets it just like the NLCS Mets

00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 6: Who does Confordo? Sweet rerelease, Dodgers have taken the lead.

354
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:24,880

Speaker 1: semou Leu and they're all dancing. Yes, I kind of

374
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:26,719
Speaker 1: feel like where we are right now.

375
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is the part where she's dating Michael Conforto. Sure,

376
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,399
Speaker 5: he's kind of a big deal. We go to the

377
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 5: fourth quarter. Do you have a Bobblehead.

378
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 1: Yet Thunder lead the Pacers eighty five seventy six. And

379
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what we've told you all along the

380
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: NBA play you're looking for a face of the league,

381
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: Shay Gilgess Alexander Right. The guy is everything you'd wanted

382
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: a superstar. We talked about what he does, the leadership

383
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,639
Speaker 1: qualities he has as teammates love him and no one

384
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 1: and no matter what, he shows up in every big game.

385
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,640
Speaker 1: You can't say that for Anthony Edwards. You can't say

386
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,679
Speaker 1: that for Tyrese Haliburton. You can't say that for even

387
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 1: some members of the Knicks that I don't want to name,

388
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 1: Jalen Brunson, who like maybe once in a while, but

389
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 1: he comes up big in every single game, no matter

390
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 1: what it is. There's no games where you go. Boy.

391
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,400
Speaker 1: SGA had a bad game and he's got twenty eight

392
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,199
Speaker 1: right now to lead the Thunder. The Pacers had just

393
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: cut it to six, right. It was a pretty good

394
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: third quarter for Indiana, and the Thunder had the ball

395
00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,679
Speaker 1: for one last possession and Sga just hangs out behind

396
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: the three point line and he's got Shepherd on him,

397
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 1: and he watches the shot clock just tick all the

398
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 1: way down to three seconds and he doesn't have a

399
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,680
Speaker 1: ton of space, but he's got a shot. And and

400
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: you know, cause only three is there are cold blooded

401
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: and he just puts up a three with no difficulty,

402
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 1: nothing but the bottom of the net, is what Dan

403
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 1: Patrick would say on Sports Center. And now it's a

404
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: nine point lead, go to the fourth quarter, and you

405
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: saw the Pacers their shoulders just slumped at the end

406
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 1: of the third, like all this to get back to

407
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:59,159
Speaker 1: within six and Sga comes down and absolutely cool, no pressure, No, hey,

408
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: things are getting a little weird right now. It's get

409
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 1: on my back when things aren't going our way. I

410
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 1: got us, I got I mean really, I mean for

411
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: what we talk about what Jalen Brunson does for the

412
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: Knicks and how and how clutch he is and all

413
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: of that, Like SGA is just okay. You just stand

414
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,160
Speaker 1: around and watch him. Whatever it is, he's gonna make

415
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: the right play, whether it's a three with no pressure,

416
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: whether I'm getting the free throw line, whether I'm making

417
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 1: a couple of big passes freeing up Chet Holmgren for

418
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:25,920
Speaker 1: a couple of easy dunks. Because he's having a tough

419
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,239
Speaker 1: game shooting the basketball like he shows up all the

420
00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 1: bleep in time. Man, you want face of the league,

421
00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 1: that someone who's gonna be there in big moments every

422
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: single time you look. It's SGA. Doesn't get any more

423
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 1: crystal clear than that.

424
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:38,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, one of the.

425
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 3: Biggest things with this squad coming into this series, go

426
00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 3: back to the to the last it was we're not done.

427
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 4: We've got work to do. Right then, we haven't won anything.

428
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, well we'll raise whatever trophy they give us or whatever,

429
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 3: but it's back to the drawing board because we have

430
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 3: a new chess match that needs to be done with

431
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 3: the team that's that's deep, that matches up in a

432
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 3: lot of ways except for the cold blooded killer as

433
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 3: you call him in SGA get through three quarters, twenty

434
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:13,320
Speaker 3: six shot attempts and just saying it's on my shoulders

435
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 3: to get us across this finish line. Now Doord had

436
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 3: his five to three point shots and other contributors, no

437
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 3: question about it, the turnover battle twenty one to five.

438
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:29,080
Speaker 3: So the defense team defense, give everybody a participation trophy

439
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 3: in the best of ways, you know, not as a

440
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:38,439
Speaker 3: pejorative term, but for SGA, it's about the consistency of

441
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 3: thirty point games. We've talked about quiet thirty point games.

442
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 3: This one's anything but quiet because it's on the big stage.

443
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 3: And in that case, coming at the end of the

444
00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 3: third quarter, you had the Pacers who shot up to

445
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 3: what forty seven percent shooting when they haven't turned the

446
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 3: ball over. They've actually played pretty well. Probably they did

447
00:20:58,480 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 3: that twenty one times.

448
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah. It's tough thing.

449
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 3: Tough thing, right, So it's like you you have all

450
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 3: of these flaws. You played terribly. It's like we're within six,

451
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 3: all right, we're gonna.

452
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 4: Go to the fourth like, hold my beer.

453
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, Face of the League says, no, no, I got this.

454
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 1: He is a you know, like every single every single

455
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: uh a phrase that I could think of, every single cliche,

456
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 1: stone cold killer, just all but they all apply to him.

457
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, but he can't be the face of the league

458
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 3: until we are next annex Canada.

459
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: Uh no, no, no, he could be fair. It's fine,

460
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,160
Speaker 1: he's on TV now, everybody is watched.

461
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 4: Ian dude.

462
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,440
Speaker 1: It's gonna make the next Olympics really difficult. And forget

463
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: about France, We're gonna have Canada deal with. But think

464
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 1: about a US versus the world. Got that much harder.

465
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,040

475
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: facing the league. Really every he shows up all the time.

476
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: Now you're welcome. You're welcome Steelers Nation. You're welcome NFL

477
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 1: fans because we made Aaron Rodgers to the Steelers happen today.

478
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: All right, Now, if you listened to the show last night,

479
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 1: we did this a couple of times, and we stopped

480
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 1: and I said, okay, listen, here's why Aaron Rodgers is

481
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: not going to be a Steeler.

482
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 4: Right.

483
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: Not to tell you. When I'm wrong, I miss something,

484
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: I'll tell you. But now I'm pretty sure Aaron Rodgers

485
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 1: listens to the show and sign with the Steelers today

486
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,879
Speaker 1: just to spite me. Geez there, just to spite me.

487
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 1: But again, stealer Nation, you're welcome, because what did I

488
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 1: say last night? If he really was going to be

489
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 1: a Steeler, all the questions would be taken care of,

490
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 1: meaning he would have a contract and he would say

491
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,400
Speaker 1: I'm showing up for the beginning of mandatory mini camp

492
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 1: like those two things. He doesn't have to be there,

493
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,479
Speaker 1: but those are two things that absolutely he would be done.

494
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 1: Does he sound like, yeah, that's gonna something, just say

495
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 1: I'm done, I'm ready, I'm showing up next week. Of

496
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,199
Speaker 1: course not. He's gonna sit. He's gonna wait for the

497
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: opening that he really wants, which is either JJ McCarthy

498
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: stinks or a quarterback gets hurt. And he signed some

499
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 1: point later on in the summer or early part of

500
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 1: the season. But the two things I said, if he

501
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,560
Speaker 1: really was going, he would have his contract and he

502
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: would say I'm out right now, but I'm reporting, and

503
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 1: that would stop all of the bad optics and the

504
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: bad headlines of what is he doing? Does he really

505
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,720
Speaker 1: want to be here? All of the craziness and what

506
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: happens today. Aaron Rodgers signs a one year contract and says,

507
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: I'll be at mandatory mini camp next week. We made

508
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,400
Speaker 1: that happen. We dared you into the arena, Aaron Rodgers,

509
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: and he showed up. So everybody football fans, Steeler fan,

510
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: you're welcome. I made it happen. I put it out there,

511
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: and I'm sure I Rogers sit there and says, you know,

512
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 1: I really don't want to play for the Steelers, really

513
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 1: want to wait, wait, see if the Vikings call me.

514
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 1: You know, I really like that O'Connell system in point,

515
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: justin Jefferson is so gooder. You know, somebody gets hurt.

516
00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 1: I could go play for the Bills, I go play

517
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 1: for the raven No, there's lots I could play for

518
00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:03,960
Speaker 1: this forty nine Ers. I could play that. Oh wait

519
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 1: a minute, Oh that Jason Smith. Ben always been saying

520
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: to me, you know what, No, just a blank that guy. Hey, hey,

521
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 1: call the Steelers, tell them one year whatever they want

522
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 1: to give me, and I'll be there next week. Yeah, Blake,

523
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,440
Speaker 1: that guy man. So now he and JJ Reddick, both

524
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:16,679
Speaker 1: of them.

525
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 3: No, I like all the theoreticals, and certainly it always does,

526
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:24,360
Speaker 3: you know, help to hear that so many luminaries, producers,

527
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,240
Speaker 3: industry people, quarterbacks and their agents listen to the show.

528
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 3: I mean, we appreciate it, there's no question about it.

529
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 3: But you know, we just add this to the list.

530
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 3: Go back to when Fisher got fired, when McVeigh shows up,

531
00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:38,679
Speaker 3: when McVeigh was going to become a member of the

532
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 3: Fox family, and we said, don't go to the light.

533
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 3: You're not done yet. Don't be scared of the sideline.

534
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,679
Speaker 3: You know, sometimes you have to have a hard season

535
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,919
Speaker 3: of what happens, comes back reinvigorated and ready to go.

536
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 1: And now they're one of the favorites in the NFC.

537
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 1: So yeah, we have all of that.

538
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 3: Now, this Aaron Rodgers thing, now he'd left so many

539
00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 3: breadcrumbs that it was all right. He thought he was

540
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 3: going to It's one of two things. Either walks the

541
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 3: earth like Kane and Kung Fu, and he never touches

542
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 3: another football except you know, to show up at a

543
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 3: golf tournament when someone throws him one so he can

544
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 3: sign it and throw it back. Or he eventually was

545
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 3: going to be a stealer because of all of that talk.

546
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,440
Speaker 3: But what was curious is not everybody in the organization,

547
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 3: present and past, got the memo, right, Terry Bradshaw and

548
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 3: so many others just taking him, taking the bat out

549
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 3: to smash him about decisions and not being there again.

550
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 3: Did he need to be there?

551
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 4: No? No.

552
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 3: Does he need a lot to other than a video,

553
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 3: a DVD or access to NFL dot com to know

554
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 3: what Arthur Smith's offense is. No, he's a pretty smart guy.

555
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:50,680
Speaker 3: I think he could pick it up pretty fast. Right,

556
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,679
Speaker 3: and then if he's already been throwing with Metcalf and

557
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 3: other members of that organization, then he's already, you know,

558
00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:58,200
Speaker 3: ahead of the game.

559
00:25:58,320 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: Right.

560
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,199
Speaker 3: It's like when Tom Brady was taking guys out to

561
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 3: the park during COVID. These guys aren't sitting on their asses.

562
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 3: They're working, might be not maybe not in the the

563
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 3: same way you you would like them to be where

564
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 3: they're present at at all off season, you know, workouts

565
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:17,040
Speaker 3: and you know, like checking a perfect attendance so they

566
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 3: can get some free tickets to a ball game or

567
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 3: to an amusement park like we did as kids. No,

568
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 3: he showed up when it was winning time and time

569
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 3: to go to work. But I did like the news

570
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 3: coming down this morning directly after us talking about it

571
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 3: that it's like well there's another guy.

572
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: We made it happen, man, We made it happen.

573
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,440
Speaker 4: Proud how the Steelers have their man.

574
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:44,399
Speaker 3: Rudolph goes to just being a backup that might create noise.

575
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:47,159
Speaker 4: As we talked about a little bit yesterday too. You're

576
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 4: gonna regret it, though, Jason, How am I gonna regret it?

577
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:50,440
Speaker 1: I made it happen.

578
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 4: Come on, revenge game right off the jump?

579
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

580
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 3: It was just the Justin Field shock, the jet start

581
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 3: all in one.

582
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,520
Speaker 1: You just wait on Justin What about the Justin Fields

583
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 1: revenge game. It's just a bigger revenge game for him.

584
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 3: But it was until now Aaron Rodgers comes in and

585
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:12,520
Speaker 3: supplants that it's all revenge.

586
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: It's a big revenge. It's it's revenge week one. That's

587
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 1: what it's gonna be. It's revenge. It's revenge of the

588
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: revenge of that. We gotta have like and we gotta have.

589
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 1: One of them is Obi Wan Kenobi, and one of

590
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,439
Speaker 1: them is Darth Vader. It's gonna be like Revenge of

591
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 1: the Sith. No, it's gotta be that.

592
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 3: But do we do a thing where he's got to

593
00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 3: go become a tourist of the city of Pittsburgh and

594
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 3: all the things around it, like he visits Primanty Brothers.

595
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:40,919
Speaker 3: He's hanging out at the Fred Rogers Museum section like

596
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 3: things of that nature, like he did in New York

597
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 3: Hot Hailing Alley that Jerome Bettis used to get everybody

598
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 3: away because that was the only thing they had.

599
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:50,200
Speaker 4: Talking to the guys at training camp.

600
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 2: What are you gonna do?

601
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: What's the night out? Go to the bowling alley because

602
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:57,199
Speaker 1: Jerome likes the bowl. That's all we got. It's a

00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 1: sports from someone who had all the pressure in the

647
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: world on her today. She had promised a Vin Scully

648
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 1: bobblehead for Justin Frosburg for the better part of the

649
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: last two weeks, kept forgetting to bring it in, forgetting

650
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 1: to getting to bring it in. She says to me,

651
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 1: last night, if you can remember to text me at

652
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: three o'clock, sometimes three or three thirty, so I don't

653
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 1: forget the bobblehead. And I said for Justin, because the

654
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: Mets won in the dominant fashion last night and a

655
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: Lonzo hit a home run like seven thousand feet. Absolutely, so, Manci,

656
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 1: I texted you around three twenty and said bobblehead. Yes,

657
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 1: did you bring the bobblehead in for Frostburg?

658
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 7: The bobblehead is in studio. It has been handed to Frostburg.

659
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 7: I was already on the road when you texted me,

660
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,480
Speaker 7: but I appreciated the text.

661
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 4: I loved your set, Michael.

662
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: Today you said between three and three thirty. I wasn't

663
00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 1: sure what time I was gonna leave.

664
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 7: It depends on whether I was going to pick up

665
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 7: food and all of that.

666
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 1: Yes, so I text you when I text you with

667
00:30:58,080 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: three twenty, that's between.

668
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 2: Three and three third No, no, no, And I appreciate it.

669
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 4: I appreciate it.

670
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: Would you have gone back to get the bobble bay,

671
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 1: I probably would have. Yes, I see there you go.

672
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: Okay Frostburg, she didn't want to hear the shame bell

673
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: if then didn't make.

674
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 2: So.

675
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 1: But Truffert wants to keep He wants to keep bringing

676
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: up good Furda, good forth. Look what I did for

677
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,360
Speaker 1: you today, justin make sure you got that Vin bobblehead,

678
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 1: He texted me.

679
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 4: Always come my way regardless.

680
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, really because Monti had brought it in,

681
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: she had twelve times. She was oh for twelve y

682
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 1: you know, she's a point. She's like watching She's like

683
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: watching Juan Soto bat. She's oh for twelve the last

684
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 1: twelve chances to bring this into I like that one.

685
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 1: Come on.

686
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 4: But she delivered. Like Michael Conforida, we did We did

687
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 4: it together, Jason.

688
00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 7: The Indiana Pacers had nineteen turnovers in the first half

689
00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 7: of Game one of the NBA Finals, and they have

690
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 7: been climbing back since those turnovers. Okay, s is up

691
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,640
Speaker 7: ninety four to eighty two with about nine minutes to

692
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 7: go in the game. They are up to twenty three turnovers,

693
00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 7: so they definitely protect the ball better in the second half.

694
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 4: But it has been okay, see this whole game.

695
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 7: Shake Gilles Alexander leading the way with twenty eight points.

696
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 7: He's twelve of twenty six. When it comes to Indiana,

697
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 7: it's Pascal Siakam who's leading the way. He's got sixteen points.

698
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 7: Tyrese Helliburn has ten, Obi topping off the bench has eleven.

699
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 7: So ninety six eighty two is a score right now,

700
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 7: nine minutes to go in Game one of the NBA Finals.

701
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,240
Speaker 7: We've also got the Women's College World Series Championship finals

702
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 7: and Texas Tech is up on Texas two to one

703
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,520
Speaker 7: bottom of the sixth inning. It's a best of three

704
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 7: series and Texas leads the series one zero. In baseball,

705
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 7: after a very long rain delay, the Astros and the Pirates,

706
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 7: I guess are back in action instead of just canceling

707
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 7: the game, and the Pirates are up one zero bottom

708
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 7: of the third inning. In Pittsburgh. The Royals and the

709
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 7: Cardinals in a double header today, Game two. Right now,

710
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 7: Royals are up seven to five, but bottom of the

711
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 7: ninth inning in Saint Louis. Earlier today, the Cardinals won

712
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 7: six five ten innings. The Cubs outscored the national seven

713
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 7: to one, The Yankees blank the Guardians for zero, and

714
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 7: the Rays edged the Rangers four to three. And yes,

715
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 7: Michael Confordo come in and clutch with the go ahead

716
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 7: RBI single in the eighth inning as a Dodgers held

717
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 7: on to defeat the Mets six time.

718
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 1: Jason, we won the season series Mets in seven. We

719
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 1: won four against you for you Mets in seven. Yeah, okay, yeah.

720
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,440
Speaker 1: The last time I wish I had Michael Conforta was

721
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. I'mvoking today. I'm okay with it. I'm okay

Speaker 1: with it. I'm Okay, I'm absolutely absolutely fine. No, I

729
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,800

731
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 1: to the ground by Obi toppin Let's see if the

732
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 1: Thunder can put this game away again. It feels like

733
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 1: it should be a thirty point lead for Oklahoma City,

734
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 1: but instead it's eleven. Now coming up next, we talked

735
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 1: about how Game one of the NBA Finals is going

736
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,279

Speaker 1: of the NBA that is one hundred percent going according

738
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: to script, and it's got to do with one big

00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 1: few minutes things have gotten pretty interesting. The Pacers have

778
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 1: clawed to it in five of the thunder. It's one

779
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,760
Speaker 1: oh one ninety six right now, just under six minutes

780
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 1: left to go. SGA with thirty points. Meanwhile, Jaylen Williams

781
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: finally heating up after a rough night shooting the basketball.

782
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 1: He and Lou Dort have fifteen. Meanwhile, for Indiana, Miles

783
00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,920
Speaker 1: Turner with fifteen and five and nine rebounds. He's been

784
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 1: a huge guy in Obi Top OB seventeen Obi top

785
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 1: and seventeen of in the game of his life for Indiana, Right,

786
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 1: maybe that's what it is for the Pacers. Every game,

787
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 1: somebody's gonna have the game of their life and that's

788
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:55,120
Speaker 1: how they win the title. Yeah.

789
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 3: I mean, he had a couple of big moments against

790
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:58,760
Speaker 3: this former squad last series.

791
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 4: But now it's a stand out performance from beyond the arc.

792
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 3: After a really rough start because he was careless with

793
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 3: the basketball, some defensive lapses, but now making up for

794
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 3: it on the offensive end. They've had a tremendous run

795
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 3: to get it back to six. And I was standing

796
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:18,399
Speaker 3: up in the studio like I was at a WWE

797
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 3: Live event, yelling, this is awesome.

798
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: That's nice, that's that's I like, chaos really great. Yeah,

799
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:31,839
Speaker 1: that sounds really great. Notching. Hey, I'm sure that normal starting. Yeah,

800
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure that looked completely normal. I'm sure that. Okay,

801
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,279
Speaker 1: Harmon's I don't know what's going on, but Harmon's doing something.

802
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:40,680
Speaker 1: I don't know what it is, you know what. So

803
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 1: if people can judge all they want, I don't care

804
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 1: the radio people. Okay, here by definition, so one O

805
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 1: two ninety eight Oklahoma City with the lead again just

806
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 1: under five minutes left to go in the fourth quarter.

807
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,400
Speaker 1: So we'll have more on this game coming up in

808
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,160
Speaker 1: about ten minutes. But as we told you, right, first

809
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 1: half NBA Finals went exact according to plan. SGA taking

810
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 1: over Oklahoma City defense was fantastic. The other thing going

811
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: completely according to plan. What did we tell you last

812
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: night about how the Knicks coaching search was gonna go.

813
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: They're gonna draw this out because they're gonna love the

814
00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:18,359
Speaker 1: limelight and love all the attention. All the Knicks were

815
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: a destination. We're gonna be the story that hangs over

816
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 1: the NBA Finals. All the big names are gonna be mentioned,

817
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: and this is not gonna be filled for a while,

818
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,080
Speaker 1: And the next few days are going to be be

819
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 1: taken up by all these big names that we're going

820
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: to think, Oh, would this guy be a great fit?

821
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 1: Would this guy be a great fit? I told you

822
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:38,640
Speaker 1: it's what's gonna happen. You're gonna hear all these big

823
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,879
Speaker 1: names just thrown around, not interviewed by the Knicks, because

824
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: then it will look bad if these guys keep saying no.

825
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 1: But all these names thrown out there and what do

826
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: we get today? What was a big thing that trended

827
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 1: because of what he said last night on the broadcast

828
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 1: the Yankees and the Guardians. Here is Saint John's head

829
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:58,320
Speaker 1: coach and former Knicks head coach Rick Patino saying, Nicks,

830
00:38:59,520 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 1: I don't.

831
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:00,279
Speaker 7: Know that.

832
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: Nick John is on to be wanted. Absolutely not.

833
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,960
Speaker 5: Michael Kay on the sw So I guess he's answered

834
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 5: if you have allowed Paul O'Neil's chuckling.

835
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 1: Ye, Although I gotta say, here's the thing. It sounds

836
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,759
Speaker 1: pretty much like Rick Patino is saying no. But you

837
00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 1: know what, Rick Patino says, There's no way I'm going there,

838
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,800
Speaker 1: and this is where I am. He leaves right, So

839
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 1: really you could you could say, well, that means he's

840
00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: gonna be a Nick's head coach, because he's never said

841
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: that before. It actually stayed right. I'm staying. Iowa is

842
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 1: my last stop. I'm not leaving Iona. I'm staying and

843
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 1: I I will finish my current IONA a year later. Oh,

844
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,200
Speaker 1: I didn't know Saint John's is gonna come open.

845
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 3: I didn't know that I was gonna This is like

846
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 3: Cruise at the end of Jerry Maguire where he makes

847
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 3: the money signed to Glenn Fry, Yes, Glenn Fry of.

848
00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 1: The Eagles as the GM of the Cardinals. You're gonna

849
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 1: pay I know, I know.

850
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,240
Speaker 3: Uh, that's when Patino and a whole host of coaches

851
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 3: are gonna do just like Dan Hurley did a year ago.

852
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 1: It wasn't about leverage. It wasn't my ass. It was

853
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:05,920
Speaker 1: all about leverage. You didn't or you didn't get the

854
00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 1: job offer. It was one or the other. Either way,

855
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: you got a nice big pay raise and more cloud

856
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:12,800
Speaker 1: out of it. And there's gonna be a parade of

857
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 1: coaches that are currently employed at the NBA or NCAA

858
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 1: level doing the same thing. Hey, can I get an

859
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 1: extra half a million here as an assistant? Because then

860
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 1: I'm I have some responsibility, but I'm not the first

861
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,959
Speaker 1: guy to get blown out the door, So I'll stay

862
00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:33,320
Speaker 1: there as opposed to you know, maybe going and fighting

863
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 1: to try to really put my resume up and then

864
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 1: being you know, kind of left short and now I've

865
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 1: got to go back with my tail tucked.

866
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 4: Right.

867
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 3: So all this leverage plays across the landscape over the

868
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 3: next couple of weeks, and you get your name in there,

869
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 3: you know, like the natural National Geographic.

870
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, man, we're gonna keep track. Every day

871
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,080
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a new big name mentioned. Right, so

872
00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,359
Speaker 1: day one, Rick Patino, Right, Okay, let's let's see who

873
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 1: Day two is. Right, We're gonna get a big name

874
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,399
Speaker 1: every single day, and it's gonna be like the col

875
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 1: Ripken streak. Well, two thousand straight days of big names.

876
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: Larry Brown is rumored to come back as Nick's head.

877
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:12,520
Speaker 1: Gut every single day is gonna be somebody.

878
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 4: Said he's not going right, Yeah, maybe he gets.

879
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: Another couple of years added to that contract that you cut. Yeah,

880
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 1: have a few more million dollars coming up next. Aaron

881
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 1: Rodgers to the Steelers, what it has to do with

882
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:30,719
Speaker 1: Tim Tebow Fox, It's it's it's it's not it's not

883
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,279
Speaker 1: a foul, right you you watch them, but both of

884
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:35,839
Speaker 1: them are going for the ball, right you got you got?

885
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,160
Speaker 1: Wallace is going for it. Sam is going for it,

886
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: and Wallace just puts his arm out and swats the

887
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: ball when already has it, doesn't touch him, doesn't touch him,

888
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:48,360
Speaker 1: and Sam just loses his balance and goes out of bounds.

889
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 1: I I don't know how you call this a foul.

890
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 3: I really don't he get called in at the beginning

891
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 3: of the play when he grabs his wrist to keep

892
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 3: him underneath the basket. Listen, I want you to go

893
00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 3: all the way back physicality going into the corner. But

894
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 3: the prior couple of possessions for Indiana, it was like,

895
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,279
Speaker 3: unless you drew blood, you were not getting a fun call.

896
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 4: Yeah it was.

897
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're definitely like, they're definitely even though both it

898
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,840
Speaker 1: feels weird because it's like both teams have been to

899
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:13,600
Speaker 1: the free throw line a ton in the fourth quarter,

900
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: but it feels it also feels like they're letting them play.

901
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 1: It's a it's a weird thing going on right now.

902
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:19,319
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, you got to the free throw line,

903
00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:22,319
Speaker 1: but they're letting them play. We're gonna get the call

904
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,400
Speaker 1: right now. Again, I'd be really surprised if if it

905
00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 1: gets reversed, but hey, you never know. It is the

906
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,240
Speaker 1: NBA Finals and and uh, you know, seven game series

907
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 1: is great. But it looks like they are keeping the

908
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:38,520
Speaker 1: call as is. Yes, thunder Thunder fans are celebrating Sihawkam

909
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 1: was the last one to touch it, and honestly, it's

910
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 1: the right call right unsuccessful challenge. I get why they

911
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 1: did it right, they had to do it and you know,

912
00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 1: but here's the thing is, you know when when when

913
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 1: players make that move and and and you get caught

914
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: up in a moment of hey, this is our you know,

915
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:56,399
Speaker 1: you kind of had to do it there, but wow,

916
00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 1: sometimes you're a player, you can't just say challenge, challenge, challenge.

917
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:01,600
Speaker 1: You have to understand that, Well, we got to make

918
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 1: sure it's the right play. And you know, quite simply,

919
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 1: this was a ball that went out of bounds and

920
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 1: the officials make the right call.

921
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:13,520
Speaker 3: With the thunder, Well rise to the level Jason, Yeah.

922
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:16,520
Speaker 3: And the answer is there's contact, but is it enough?

923
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:22,800
Speaker 1: The answer is no. And Tyre's Halliburton, Oh my goodness,

924
00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:31,160
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, Oklahoma City misses a shot. The rebound

925
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 1: goes to Indiana. Indiana dribbles down court. They look like

926
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 1: they're in trouble. They look like they're in trouble because

927
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 1: Halliburton can't penetrate. He finally finds his way free on

928
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 1: the right side and he puts up a fifteen footer

929
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 1: that falls. It gives the Pacers the lead. They're checking

930
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 1: to see if there's time left on the clock. Like Halliburton,

931
00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 1: there's four seconds left. He's being guarded at mid court

932
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 1: and he steps in the he steps inside the three

933
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 1: point line and he hits a shot, and they're looking

934
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: to see how much time is left on the clock

935
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:08,200
Speaker 1: for the Oklahoma City Thunder. It looks like looks like

936
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 1: three tenths of a second, so they're gonna get to

937
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:15,120
Speaker 1: inbound the basketball. But my goodness, man, this this Indiana

938
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,879
Speaker 1: Pacers team just will not die in a night where

939
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 1: Halliburton has had a game where he's only got fourteen points.

940
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,160
Speaker 1: This really has been something. This has been along the

941
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 1: lines with everything the Pacers have done, the big comebacks

942
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 1: in the first round, beating the Calves, the way they

943
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:33,000
Speaker 1: did Game one against the Knicks, Like this is kind

944
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 1: of what the Pacers do. And Halliburton hits the big

945
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,520
Speaker 1: shot when it looked like they were in trouble and

946
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,320
Speaker 1: things were gonna go absolutely south of the Pacers, and

947
00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,800
Speaker 1: now it looks like they're gonna win Game one, one, eleven,

948
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:44,279
Speaker 1: one ten.

949
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,280
Speaker 4: So does he get to go and steal the clutch

950
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:49,160
Speaker 4: trophy from your guy Brunson or what?

951
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 7: Oh?

952
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 1: I don't think you can call him over any much.

953
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 1: I don't think he'll call him over rated. I don't

954
00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:55,160
Speaker 1: think any players do that.

955
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:58,840
Speaker 3: I told you he had the extra motivation from having

956
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:03,360
Speaker 3: that a ten to go snatch the Larry Bird Trophy

957
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 3: and then Pascal Siakam's name being announceshaw. You know, motivation

958
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,920
Speaker 3: for the next round. But once again you hang around

959
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,359
Speaker 3: second or in the fourth quarter. Six of ten from

960
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:17,399
Speaker 3: three point range are the Pacers the Thunder zero for five.

961
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:21,560
Speaker 3: SGA misses that big shot on the Thunder's last possession

962
00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:25,920
Speaker 3: for Haliburton fourteen ten and six and a plus twelve.

963
00:45:26,680 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 1: What a disaster this is gonna be for the Thunder.

964
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:33,399
Speaker 1: What an absolute disaster. Game one, they control it most

965
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:33,799
Speaker 1: of the way.

966
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:35,680
Speaker 4: Sounds like the next series games.

967
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, this looks like the nixt SJA Ever Recover eight

968
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 1: seven seven. SGA playing the role of Jalen Brunson right

969
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 1: with thirty eight points and ah, you don't really get

970
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: what you need out of Jalen Williams and chet Holme,

971
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:48,879
Speaker 1: Grant and half, but you get a couple of other

972
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:52,080
Speaker 1: performances and here come the Pacers who just absolutely wear

973
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 1: them down. They hit their threes right, eighteen for thirty

974
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 1: nine from three point range. It's what keeps them in

975
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:01,319
Speaker 1: this game, and Halliburton again hits a shot in which

976
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:04,160
Speaker 1: it looked like he was absolutely stuck. And you know,

977
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:08,400
Speaker 1: I gotta say the the calm, the grace under pressure,

978
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 1: under fire that Halliburton has is just I can't get

979
00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,840
Speaker 1: over it. Where there's plays that other players, other clutch

980
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 1: players would absolutely melt and panic and look for a ball,

981
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,920
Speaker 1: look for a pass, he just finds a way, finds

982
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: a little bit of space and and hits a shot.

983
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:27,360
Speaker 1: We've seen him do a time after time after time.

984
00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 1: I give him all the credit in the world. And

985
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,319
Speaker 1: they're gonna win a game that I didn't think they

986
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:34,399
Speaker 1: could win again. One eleven, one ten. Right now, three

987
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:36,879
Speaker 1: tenths of a second left to go, Oklahoma City will

988
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:40,680
Speaker 1: inbound the basketball from the PACER's side, so they get

989
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: a chance for one last alley oop tip, some kind

990
00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:46,880
Speaker 1: of quick toss up. But it looks like this is going,

991
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 1: I mean, other than a miracle, and it seems like

992
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:51,839
Speaker 1: the Pacers have the run on miracles. This is gonna

993
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,520
Speaker 1: wind up being a Pacers stealing Game one from the

994
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,680
Speaker 1: thunder Hey run that Gordon play run that Gordon oh

995
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 1: h No. One that worked against us just exactly what

996
00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:05,279
Speaker 1: they kind of tried to do.

997
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:09,640
Speaker 3: But the Pacers take the one eleven, one ten victory

998
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 3: as the inbound gets tipped away. Jason, you know, we

999
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:16,200
Speaker 3: watched the first half and with the turnovers, final turnover

1000
00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:20,520
Speaker 3: count twenty four to six. But one of the things

1001
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,920
Speaker 3: as we were talking about these series was that you

1002
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:26,480
Speaker 3: do have a bunch of defenders, you do have depth.

1003
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:30,919
Speaker 3: For Indiana, they kept Oklahoma City. They shot under forty

1004
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:34,920
Speaker 3: percent for the game. They shot under forty percent for

1005
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,759
Speaker 3: the game, did not take care of the basketball with

1006
00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 3: all the turnovers that they caused. Good transition defense by

1007
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:45,400
Speaker 3: the Pacers, something you got used to seeing against the Knicks.

1008
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 3: So they go into OKC and they steal one. Man,

1009
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 3: did they just just take it? This is very violent fashion.

1010
00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 3: This is just disaster. It's absolute disaster for Oklahoma City.

1011
00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 1: Like they get a little lost on the final play,

1012
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 1: like Halliburton kind of slides to the side and Wallace

1013
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 1: is on him and and Caruso kind of comes up

1014
00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:09,959
Speaker 1: leaves Seakam because he doesn't want to have that little

1015
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:11,239
Speaker 1: slide past to Seakam.

1016
00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 3: But then he yeah, he retreats back instead. Yeah, just yeah,

1017
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:17,600
Speaker 3: not recognizing I guess with the clock because if he

1018
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 3: passed it and they don't have a they don't have time.

1019
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Halliburton hit. Halliburton hits the shot. And I

1020
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:26,239
Speaker 1: will say this because I know you don't want to foul,

1021
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,840
Speaker 1: but wow, in a game in which in which they

1022
00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,960
Speaker 1: were letting you play down the stretch, Wallace was was

1023
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 1: given Halliburton way too much room, Like you gotta know

1024
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 1: you got to have that body clock, knowing how much

1025
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,320
Speaker 1: time is left, knowing that I gotta be close to

1026
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 1: him because he's not going to drive past me and

1027
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:44,440
Speaker 1: get to the hoop. That's not gonna happen. And he

1028
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 1: definitely you know, he gave him a a little bit

1029
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:48,400
Speaker 1: too much room, so he gets up a clean shot.

1030
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:51,040
Speaker 1: So I mean, look, Halliburton makes the play. But the

1031
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 1: one thing I will say is that man Wallace kind

1032
00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:55,160
Speaker 1: of gave him a little bit too much room there.

1033
00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:56,399
Speaker 1: Let him go up with a clean shot.

1034
00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:02,960
Speaker 4: Man Adam was something steaicket. You are going to apologize

1035
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:04,120
Speaker 4: to Tyre's Halliburton.

1036
00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:06,680
Speaker 1: How am I gonna apologize? What I say? He got?

1037
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 4: He got lucky last round?

1038
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 1: When did you when did I say these things had? Yes?

1039
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,879
Speaker 1: Game one? Come on that shot done?

1040
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:16,279
Speaker 4: This is it?

1041
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,399
Speaker 1: Is it? Really? Luck? Come on the end of games

1042
00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,839
Speaker 1: one bounce it off the back, bounces off the back

1043
00:49:20,880 --> 00:49:22,600
Speaker 1: of the rim, up in the air and back through. No,

1044
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:23,080
Speaker 1: that's long.

1045
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,080
Speaker 4: You want the face of the league forget sgsluck.

1046
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah yeah, Now now it's Aliburton who's making all

1047
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 1: Did you see the metal stand they just put up

1048
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:31,839
Speaker 1: to win a game?

1049
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:36,080
Speaker 3: End of regulation or ot Since nineteen ninety seven Lebron

1050
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,920
Speaker 3: James with eight shots and then tied with five are

1051
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 3: Reggie Miller and now Tyrese Haliburton. See how quickly they

1052
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 3: got that stat together, Like we said, my and research

1053
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:48,919
Speaker 3: staffs getting it done.

1054
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,680
Speaker 4: Like how big of an underdog were the Pacers today?

1055
00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:54,280
Speaker 3: They were nine and a half or ten Yeah, depending

1056
00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:56,719
Speaker 3: on when you you started to dive in. I think

1057
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:58,480
Speaker 3: it got out to ten and a half as you

1058
00:49:58,560 --> 00:50:00,799
Speaker 3: got closer to tip off, a little bit of late

1059
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:04,799
Speaker 3: money and big bets coming in on OKC to take

1060
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:08,440
Speaker 3: care of business at home, which they did for three quarters.

1061
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:10,200
Speaker 4: Haliburton is a dog.

1062
00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:12,640
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you want to look, you want

1063
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: to look at something and a couple of keys to

1064
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:18,920
Speaker 1: this game. Right. The Halliburton shot is insane. And we're

1065
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,560
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna continue to talk about that. But you

1066
00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:25,000
Speaker 1: look at the rebounding advantage the Pacers have. They had

1067
00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:28,960
Speaker 1: four starters with at least nine rebounds in the game, right,

1068
00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,360
Speaker 1: they had a fifty six to thirty nine rebound advantage,

1069
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:35,360
Speaker 1: and and yeah, the twenty four to six turnover advantage,

1070
00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:38,040
Speaker 1: but they didn't turn those twenty four turnovers into enough

1071
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:41,040
Speaker 1: points or was it eleven points off? The twelve points

1072
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,400
Speaker 1: off of twenty four turnovers? Like that's why this is

1073
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,880
Speaker 1: an as this is just a disaster for the Thunder.

1074
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 1: Like it's game one. We're here, we're at home, we're

1075
00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:53,440
Speaker 1: the better team, we have the MVP, we play better defense,

1076
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:57,160
Speaker 1: we control the entire first half, and then we just

1077
00:50:57,320 --> 00:51:01,239
Speaker 1: get lost in the second half. Whether because this would

1078
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:04,400
Speaker 1: not like the Pacers had some crazy comeback where they

1079
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:06,120
Speaker 1: hit all of their threes. No, they hit a bunch

1080
00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 1: of threes like they normally do. But you know, eighteen

1081
00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 1: out of thirty nine, Okay, you know it's it's you know,

1082
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:11,960
Speaker 1: it's forty five percent of your threes, all right, but

1083
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 1: this was still a game where it's not like the

1084
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 1: Thunder it stopped scoring. It's not like the thunder it

1085
00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:19,440
Speaker 1: all of a sudden hit the skids and and somehow

1086
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:21,839
Speaker 1: the I mean, the pacers just do this. Man, when

1087
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:24,200
Speaker 1: you think they're dead, they find a way to stay

1088
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,960
Speaker 1: in it at the end all three rounds of the playoffs. Like,

1089
00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:29,319
Speaker 1: it's not like when Halliburton's got the ball. I'm saying

1090
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 1: to myself, I'm talking. I'm saying, he's gonna hit the shot.

1091
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:34,319
Speaker 1: He's gonna hit wherever it is. He's gonna put it out.

1092
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,279
Speaker 1: It's gonna it's gonna bounce off the front of the rim,

1093
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:38,600
Speaker 1: and then it's gonna bounce off of somebody's head. And

1094
00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 1: then a bird is gonna fly by, and it's gonna

1095
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:42,320
Speaker 1: hit the bird. It's gonna fall through the bottom of

1096
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,640
Speaker 1: the net, and the pacers are gonna win. You're picturing,

1097
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 1: Neil what they do. Michael Jordan Larry Bird Horse commercials

1098
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 1: from McDonald's right.

1099
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:51,400
Speaker 2: I was over the.

1100
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I was thinking more than the Danny Rojas

1101
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:58,359
Speaker 1: the penalty when he when he wow, okay, they hit

1102
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,759
Speaker 1: the dog on the pedalt Wow. You know, I mean, look,

1103
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 1: it's this, this is what the pacers do that they

1104
00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:06,359
Speaker 1: it's the pacers doing pacer things.

1105
00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 4: Okay, see, okay, sorry, good.

1106
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,879
Speaker 1: Here's how it sounded just a couple of moments ago.

1107
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 1: Tyre's Halliburton's game winner for the Pacers. Patis little chance

1108
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:23,360
Speaker 1: to win it final seconds, so fouls Halliburton looking, Halliburton driving, pulls.

1109
00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 6: Off jump shots gone quit, threat touns for a second

1110
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:32,759
Speaker 6: from time out. Okay, see Tyrens Halliburton touzzled again.

1111
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:39,720
Speaker 1: Mike Bring, ESPN, ABC on the call. Disappointing there Burton shot.

1112
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:41,439
Speaker 4: Uh, where's the bang?

1113
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 3: Bang?

1114
00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 4: Where's the bang for a shot like that?

1115
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 1: No, I think you only use bangs for the Knicks.

1116
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: I don't think I think it's a Hey, he's getting

1117
00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:51,799
Speaker 1: paid by it, but he's not a Knick's broadcast at bangs,

1118
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 1: Jason that.

1119
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:55,120
Speaker 2: Okay?

1120
00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 1: You want to know, No, I don't. I'll tell you.

1121
00:52:57,960 --> 00:52:59,960
Speaker 1: I will tell you probably why it wasn't a bank

1122
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 1: or a double bang or a triple bank. I'll tell

1123
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:06,279
Speaker 1: you what why. I'm gonna tell you what.

1124
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 4: Tell me why?

1125
00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:13,480
Speaker 1: Generally tell me why? Why don't you go watch Michael CONFORDO.

1126
00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:15,239
Speaker 1: It's the first hit he's had as a Dodger again,

1127
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:17,040
Speaker 1: go watch it. Eighth in he hits I've been.

1128
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 3: Kicked off the internet, and now I think he's a

1129
00:53:22,200 --> 00:53:24,120
Speaker 3: bot and he's looked at it so frequently.

1130
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:29,600
Speaker 1: Generally, generally with play by play guys, their best calls

1131
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:32,840
Speaker 1: like this come when it's the home team. If this

1132
00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:35,759
Speaker 1: was if they were at home and Halliburton hit that shot,

1133
00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:37,840
Speaker 1: or if it was the Thunder hit that shot, it

1134
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:39,960
Speaker 1: would have been a bang or a double bang. But

1135
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,640
Speaker 1: on the road, when the crowd is silent, it's just

1136
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:45,640
Speaker 1: a weird energy, so I think, and you feed off

1137
00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:47,279
Speaker 1: the crowd in that situation, you got to create your

1138
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:49,560
Speaker 1: own energy. So I think that's more why he didn't

1139
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:51,319
Speaker 1: use a bang or double bank. Who's the home team

1140
00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:52,640
Speaker 1: doing it? He would have done it, or.

1141
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:54,879
Speaker 3: He came over the top and said Halliburton says, Mike,

1142
00:53:54,960 --> 00:54:01,080
Speaker 3: you to the Thunder seven more made threes than the

1143
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:04,480
Speaker 3: Thunder tonight, six fewer free throws. I'll take that trade

1144
00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:08,719
Speaker 3: all day long. Only eleven points scored off of all

1145
00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:09,680
Speaker 3: of those turnovers.

1146
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:13,680
Speaker 1: The pacers are doing pacers things like that was I

1147
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:15,960
Speaker 1: can't get over I can't get over it, man, I

1148
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,520
Speaker 1: mean this is a it's a tough one man all

1149
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,800
Speaker 1: of a sudden Game two is the NBA Finals for

1150
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:23,600
Speaker 1: the Thunder. Game two is the NBA Finals because the

1151
00:54:23,680 --> 00:54:26,560
Speaker 1: PA they continue to do what they've done. They outscore

1152
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:29,000
Speaker 1: the Thunder thirty five twenty five in the fourth quarter,

1153
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 1: an amazing ending to an NBA Finals game.
