My goodness, you know I turned this 21 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 2: one the uh. There's a classic from the Don Henley 22 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 2: album where he teamed up with Axel Rose back in 23 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 2: the day. Called I Will Not Go Quietly, and for 24 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 2: one night, the Dallas Mavericks channeled everything in that song 25 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 2: turn this thing around. I will not go quietly. I'm 26 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,120 Speaker 2: not gonna try to do the Axl Rose. I'm not 27 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 2: four or five Beers or Gin and Tonics in to 28 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 2: where the voice will play those gymnastics for me here 29 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 2: Ryan Hollins, which is probably a good thing at nine 30 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 2: o'clock in the morning on the West Coast. But the Mavericks, 31 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 2: after all the criticism Brian Windhorse, some giving him credit, 32 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: I say all he did was he was Frank the Tank, 33 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: that guy that's you know, the whole barstool Mets guy 34 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: who was mad about New Jersey traffic all those years 35 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 2: ago and then became a big star. If he'd just 36 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: been upper register. That's where wind Horse was with that. 37 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 2: The big deal was insider suddenly becoming hot take. But 38 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 2: Luka Dagts and the Mavericks responded in grand fashion, and 39 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: the Celtics very early in that game. 40 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 1: Ryan looked like They're like, yeah, we can go win 41 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: at home. That's fine. 42 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 3: No, you're right, that very much is how it came off. 43 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 4: But what the one thing I do notice that I 44 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 4: don't think they just conceded the game, but I know, 45 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 4: you know, you get to a point where he said, 46 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 4: we're gonna live to fight again another day. The Mavericks 47 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 4: got a whistle, you know, Luca got a whistle. And 48 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 4: we talked about it yesterday, Mike. 49 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 3: That's the similarities to James Harden. 50 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 4: When he can get to the foul line, you can't 51 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 4: get physical with them, you can't rough them up. Man, 52 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 4: Luca becomes darn near impossible to guard. And in Game 53 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 4: three there are a number of blown calls. So Luca 54 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 4: was upset. It's got to be spilled milk, especially in 55 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 4: the NBA Finals at that point of the season. But 56 00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 4: for him, he did so many good things, and they 57 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 4: got the role players rolling from Dallas, and you know, 58 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,839 Speaker 4: first it was Luca that got going. 59 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 3: Then it was the rest of the bunch. 60 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 4: And if you're Dallas, you got to say, hey, that's 61 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 4: got to be our recipe for success. Luca, it starts 62 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 4: and it ends with you, So there is validity. So 63 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,519 Speaker 4: what Windhorst was saying, and there were a couple of 64 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 4: silly plays from Luca, but again, I think you got 65 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 4: to chime back and you got to give Mike, I 66 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 4: don't know how you feel about this. I feel like 67 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 4: you got to give Boston more credit because they attacked 68 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 4: Luca and they're a team equipped. 69 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 3: Right. 70 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,880 Speaker 2: No, but that's the biggest thing. Is most of it 71 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 2: all all through the run. And Jason Tatum, I think 72 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: said it really well and his his press availability leading 73 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 2: into Game four, He's like, well, what's what's the difference? 74 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 2: You're you're gonna tell us who we didn't play and 75 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 2: whatever else. Now it's the presumption that you're going to 76 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 2: finish off the three to zero lead, which you still 77 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 2: need to go do. But he's like, well, we'll just 78 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 2: have to do it again next year, which you know, 79 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 2: I kind of like it a little bit of a 80 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 2: drop to Mike moment and all of that, But you're 81 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: exactly right, like, we're not giving credit to the way 82 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 2: the Celtics have gone out and handled their business, maybe 83 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 2: a little bit to their flowers in terms of individual 84 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 2: defense and how they're not doubling Luca or Kyrie and 85 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: giving wide open looks. All of that is is fair, 86 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 2: But you know, you played the game in the NBA 87 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 2: for for ten years. For those on aware, Ryan Hollins 88 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 2: with us, he's an analyst for the Rockets. You hear 89 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 2: him on the network. You hear with me Sunday mornings 90 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 2: doing a little double duty this weekend at the Ryan 91 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 2: Hollins The Opinionated Seven Footers podcast. He is in the 92 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: season of Clipped, or at least some representation of him there. 93 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 2: In the last couple of weeks, we've also had Uncut 94 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 2: Gems has been on one of the monitors, so we 95 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 2: always point out there's our guy. It's like you always 96 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 2: got to point out your friends when they make movies. You, oh, yeah, 97 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,280 Speaker 2: it's one of those movies that now it's like Shawshank 98 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 2: for us at the studio. If it's on and they're 99 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 2: flipping channels after all the Bowl games are done, and 100 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 2: they're gonna take one of our monitors and put a movie. 101 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 2: If it happens to be in sequence that Uncut Gems 102 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 2: is on, doesn't matter where it is, Yep, it goes 103 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: up on the board. We got three or four movies 104 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 2: like that, the John Wicks series of Chants All of 105 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 2: the Ocean just there you go. Was not expecting that 106 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 2: kind of came out open, open mouth, say things and buttons. 107 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: So there you have it. 108 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 2: So it's the kind of thing that you know, it's 109 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 2: Ryan Hollands. You appear in that, but ten years in 110 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: the league. I mean you're you're theory testing, right, Like 111 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 2: I'll take another movie in, We'll do the Jurassic Park 112 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: Raptor thing. Right, they're testing the fences for weakness. That 113 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 2: what you do with the referees. All right, how physical 114 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 2: are we gonna call it tonight? What are we gonna 115 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 2: be able to get away with? And if you can 116 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 2: get away with a bunch early, guess what you're gonna 117 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 2: push a little bit more? 118 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 1: Right. 119 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 2: It's with every sport, with everything you do and every 120 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 2: endeavor in life, right, how aggressively you drive all. 121 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: The way on down the line? What can I get 122 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: away with? 123 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 2: And for the Celtics, and certainly Luca was doing that 124 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 2: on the other end, trying to figure out, all right, 125 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 2: what's exactly gonna take to get a fall? The problem 126 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 2: is he kept rolling around on the ground and not 127 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 2: getting back defensively to cover up the fact that he 128 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 2: didn't get a whistle the other way. 129 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, the key right there at what you just 130 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 4: said is he was much better defensively, and that was 131 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 4: a whole lot of the frustration of man, you're not 132 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 4: even gonna try to get back on defense. You're not 133 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 4: even gonna You're gonna not gonna make an effort. You know, 134 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 4: come on, man, you gotta be better than that. In 135 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 4: the United States at the NBA Finals. And what's tough 136 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 4: is you like to sit him down, get him arrest, 137 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 4: let his mental come back. But it did look like 138 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 4: his mental win. And when you have such a load offensively, 139 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 4: then they asked you to play defense. 140 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 3: Man, it's hard. It is tough. So Luca was definitely 141 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 3: feeling it, you know, to say the least no. 142 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 2: And that's the thing, right You're trying to figure out 143 00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 2: where it stands. And there's a great super cut because look, 144 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 2: Luca defenders right as many critics as there are for 145 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 2: his defensive effort, and at some point it's that, you know, 146 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 2: in game three, it was oftentimes the all right, now 147 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 2: I'm gonna run around like a chicken with my head 148 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: cut off to show you how active I am on 149 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: this side, and then he committed a couple of dumb 150 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 2: files and doing so, you know, because whatever I don't 151 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 2: know about you, watching youth sports, there's always the retaliation, 152 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 2: and you could see it coming from a mile away, like, 153 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 2: you don't actually need to have the contact. The referee's 154 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 2: gonna blow the whistle because he knows something bad is 155 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: about to happen. 156 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: You see it all the time. 157 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 2: He didn't get a fall on one end, and then 158 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 2: they're like a heat seeking missile straight back to that opponent. 159 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 2: And Luca did that a bunch the other night. But 160 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 2: there was a supercut that went around. Look at him 161 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: on Tatum, look at the defensive effort here. So certainly 162 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 2: the stands were out in social media to point out 163 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 2: the effort, and it was a great effort all around. 164 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: Tim Hardaway Junior, who had been you know, kind of 165 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 2: the running joke of the fact that he hadn't had 166 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 2: a bucket since May eighteenth, comes off the bench and 167 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 2: he basically had a Reggie Miller couple of minutes, goes 168 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 2: five to seven from three point range, sixty points. 169 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: Like, aha, I'm in the box score now. 170 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 2: The game was already decided, but for the purpose of 171 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 2: box score reading this morning, you know, everybody's excited about 172 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 2: the fact that these guys shot so well, the auxiliary guys, 173 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 2: you know, not Luca and Kyrie, and breaking those down. 174 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 2: He's like, well, we also have to remember down distance 175 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,840 Speaker 2: in time of game. Yeah, it's great they got open shots, 176 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 2: but by that point, you know, you're kind of just 177 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 2: playing out the string and hoping that it's a running clock. 178 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: But I ask you this, Ryan Hollins, does this open 179 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 1: the door? Or was it? Oh? That was nice, We'll 180 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: see you monday. 181 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 4: We've seen stranger things happen, and I think that little 182 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,839 Speaker 4: I'm sure hopefully everybody's seen it by now. But the 183 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 4: kind of twist in there is no team's ever come 184 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 4: back from three to zero, and no team that is 185 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:56,839 Speaker 4: one of the finals has ever been blown out? Was 186 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 4: it thirty nine points? So history will be made at 187 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 4: one point in time. And I don't think it was 188 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 4: just Boston shut it down. But there was a level 189 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 4: where it's like, Okay, this is the team that we saw. 190 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 4: This is the team that we kind of expected in 191 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,000 Speaker 4: the Mavericks where their bigs were getting dunks. There weren't 192 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 4: any lives, but the energy was there. The role players 193 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 4: play hard, Luka led, Kyrie followed, and the real players 194 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 4: did their job, you know, and they were just physical. 195 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 3: The energy was there. 196 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 4: Now the challenge is going to be can they create 197 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 4: that same energy in Boston. You know, can they make 198 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 4: things happen in Boston the same exact way? 199 00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 3: You know, that's the question, because that's the thing. 200 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 2: You go back to Game three, and for the Celtics, 201 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,959 Speaker 2: the narrative coming in, and fairly so, was that they'll 202 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 2: give you a chance to go take a game, maybe 203 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,200 Speaker 2: even give you one right and against Indiana you had 204 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 2: three times the win probability in the final minutes for 205 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 2: the Pacers was over ninety percent. And give all credit 206 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 2: to the Celtics for coming back and taking those games. 207 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:11,079 Speaker 2: But sports radio is far more entertaining when we concentrate 208 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 2: on how you lose a game like that. And for 209 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 2: Game three, same thing. As frustrated as Luca was, as 210 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 2: terrible as it looked at times, and there was no 211 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 2: flow and continuity for that squad. With four minutes left 212 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 2: when he falls out, it's a one possession game, and 213 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 2: there's always the what if what in all of that. 214 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: We can't we get replicated in cartoon form like they 215 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: did in the Marvel universe with all the different time 216 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 2: stuff and what would have happened to this guy did 217 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 2: that the other Well, in sports we can't relitigate it, 218 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: so you end up taking the l But right now 219 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 2: you're wondering, what if, right, you win that one, what's 220 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: game four look like, what's the rest of the series 221 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 2: look like. Well, now you're down three to one. But 222 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: you went and got that and you got the offense 223 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 2: to kind of spread out a bit, and at least 224 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 2: for a moment, everybody relaxed. 225 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, you do look back and you 226 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 4: notice and here's the one thing about playoff basketball. It 227 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 4: is that tight, man, It is that close the difference 228 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:19,560 Speaker 4: between winning and losing. So you're a winner. Hey, we 229 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 4: took care of business. We got the right stops. You know, 230 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 4: the last We always look at the last two minutes 231 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 4: of a ball game, last two minutes of a close 232 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 4: ball game. You know, what were the plays that were made, 233 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 4: and normally the team that wins the or the teams 234 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 4: that made those plays and stepped up and did the 235 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 4: tough things. So you know, you always look back and 236 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 4: watching film and going, man, we were one box out away, 237 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 4: one shot away, one good screen away. And again you 238 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 4: see we're here doing what we're watching that Luca, that 239 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 4: that foul out and saying, Luca, stay in the game. 240 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 3: You were right in there. 241 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 4: You know, you played excellent. So that's where the man. 242 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 4: The NBA playoffs. I'm telling you, man, from my experiences 243 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 4: in the playoffs, it was the toughest thing. 244 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 3: I've ever done in my life. I mean it was 245 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 3: his inches. 246 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 4: I mean, you got you had have coaches game planning 247 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 4: for any little advantage. I remember, you know when it 248 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 4: always sticks out of my mind. I remember Lou Williams 249 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 4: got Cooking one game and Lou Williams is prolific when 250 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 4: he's going to his left hand. Going to his right, 251 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 4: he's got the floater, but going to his left, he's 252 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 4: got drive, he's got floater. I remember being in the 253 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 4: game and they had so many creative ways of trying 254 00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 4: to get Lou Williams to his left hand. I mean, 255 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,680 Speaker 4: it wasn't even funny, but it's literally a game of inches, 256 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 4: or you know. I remember Garden Dwayne Wade and running 257 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 4: out and Dwayne Wade never waited for the screen. 258 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 3: He just goes sprinting at you. So like you're Garden 259 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 3: Dayne Wade. 260 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 4: You're coming out in a full on stance, you know, 261 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 4: all the way down, you know, prepared for him to 262 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 4: make a move to the left of the right, and 263 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 4: man just a lot of times, man, the playoff games 264 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 4: at that level, the competitive nature, the details are there, 265 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 4: and bring that up to say that there's something that's missing. Well, Luka, 266 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 4: this is experience and and hats off Drewe. Holliday's the 267 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 4: NBA champion, right, and the rest of those guys they 268 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 4: had a lot of them had made it to the 269 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 4: finals before, so they kind of got to see what 270 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 4: the finals look like. 271 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 2: Well in Celtics for the better part of a decade 272 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,719 Speaker 2: living at least in the Eastern Conference finals, a lot 273 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 2: of big runs. Even if you've changed out the coaches, 274 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 2: that a lot of the principals are still there. 275 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: There's no question. 276 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 2: And even with that Luca file Ryan just to you know, 277 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 2: not to re litigate it, but going back to the 278 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 2: one he filed out on, if you had only the 279 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 2: first camera angle that was shown, you could have argued 280 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 2: that his feet were set and that it was in 281 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 2: fact potentially a charge. Problem is that second one comes 282 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 2: in and shows that he's still jumping to the left 283 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 2: and in this case the right. 284 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: I just wanted to get the time warp in at nine. 285 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 3: I got a confession for you. 286 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:55,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, we watched every NBA game of the rockets and 287 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 4: then some and as we sit there and check the monitor, 288 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,199 Speaker 4: it gets to a point where you don't. 289 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 3: Know what a foul is anymore. 290 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 4: Well, it's a fair point, literally a blocker chargeer going, 291 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know. 292 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 2: Do you have a giant oversized coin that you've added 293 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 2: to any bitch yet call it in the air? 294 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 4: What do you think that's what we I mean, we 295 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 4: literally probably need that. But there were points and I'm 296 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 4: telling you we go I just say, hey, I don't 297 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 4: know what it is anymore. 298 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 2: I'll I'll wait for the explanation. Hopefully it's clear, no question. 299 00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 2: We do have a big officiating story that's creeping out, 300 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 2: and since you were in the league as the NBA 301 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 2: went through a bunch of trials and tribulations with some 302 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 2: stuff that still hangover. Not to mention, Scott Foster was 303 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 2: the referee yesterday again thirty eight point burial. But as 304 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 2: you say, some calls don't go the same way early 305 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 2: and you maybe get a different flow and opportunity to 306 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: play basketball. 307 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: Funny how that all works. 308 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: But we do have that a little bit later because 309 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 2: Major League Baseball has themselves a nice big scandal, So 310 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 2: we'll tie those two together. But coming up next, last night, 311 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 2: in the wake of the game for resounding victory by 312 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 2: the Mavericks, we got what was put up as a 313 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 2: retirement announcement. I think it was more a threat. We'll 314 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 2: break that down as we continue. He's Ryan Hollins on 315 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 2: Mike Harmon.

So last night, Ryan, in the wake of 373 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 2: the Game four resounding victory by the Mavericks and your 374 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 2: appearance with us Jason Smith and I on our show 375 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 2: last night, all of a sudden, about forty five minutes 376 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,360 Speaker 2: later's like, hey, wait a minute, we've got something cooking. 377 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 2: And during the day on social media there was Hey, 378 00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 2: there's a tease. This guy is going to be part 379 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 2: of the coverage of Game four. Turnover over to NBA 380 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 2: TV and you can hear everything he's got to say 381 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 2: because you know you want to. But nobody, nobody could 382 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 2: have anticipated that you'd get this quote coming out of 383 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 2: the game and into a late Friday night. 384 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 8: You know, there's been a lot of noise around on 385 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 8: network the last few months, and I just want to say, 386 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 8: I've talked to all the other networks, but I ain't 387 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 8: going nowhere other than TNT. But I have made the 388 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 8: decision myself, no matter what happens, next year is going 389 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 8: to be my last year on television. 390 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 2: Now, I appreciate the the you know, bold statement right there, 391 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 2: because he also went on saying, don't call me because 392 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 2: I'm not doing any more interviews. So we anxiously await 393 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 2: his appearance with Dan Patrick on the network. So keep 394 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 2: an eye on all the Fox Sports Radio and DP 395 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 2: shows socials for when Charles to talk about this proclamation 396 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 2: a little bit. I took it as kind of like 397 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 2: an athlete at the end of a long season. It's 398 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 2: like I gotta get away, and sometimes they'll hint at 399 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,119 Speaker 2: or even tell you that they're gonna retire me. And 400 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 2: Lebron James has done this a bunch. Aaron Rodgers famously 401 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 2: go before that in Green Bay with Brett farbre things 402 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 2: that kind of ticked off packer fans, packer brass as 403 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 2: they tried to plan for the next year. Charles Barkley 404 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 2: and company. I think it was often misreported like the 405 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 2: team work and inside the NBA was going away as 406 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 2: soon as their coverage of this year ended forgetting there 407 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 2: was still one more year on the deal before things 408 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 2: went to new buyers, new bidders, and new broadcasters. But 409 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 2: this one seemed like a all right, I'm emotional, I 410 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 2: don't want to do any more talking about this, but 411 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 2: also it's kind of a threat to Adam Silver and 412 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 2: everybody else. Can we get this done once and for all. 413 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 2: So as much as it could be, Hey, I did 414 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 2: twenty five years, you know, I'm out. I still think 415 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 2: there's part of the Leo DiCaprio, I'm not blank and leaving. 416 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 2: That's possible if commer heads prevail and a package is 417 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 2: good enough to bring him his team in front of 418 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 2: and behind the cameras with him. 419 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 3: I think you're right, and. 420 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 4: Sometimes you have to make these type of statements so 421 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 4: that people see you and see the show. I think 422 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 4: everybody was shocked that you know, T and T would match, 423 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 4: and it just kind of shows how much how much 424 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 4: we love. So sometimes until they know you're going away 425 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 4: you're no longer going to be there, that appreciation may 426 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 4: not be valued or may not be present. So I think, hey, 427 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:48,880 Speaker 4: there's a lot of us that's optimistic. 428 00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:49,360 Speaker 3: And I know. 429 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 4: Just from my experience is that any and really anybody 430 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 4: can speak to this. When you're at the end of 431 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 4: a season and you're tired and you're fatigued, that's a 432 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 4: lot of emotion talking. 433 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 3: And there's been a. 434 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 4: Lot going on over there with the NBA T and 435 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 4: T and a lot of frustration and you know, really 436 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 4: trying to trying to figure things out. But I think 437 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 4: what Charles Barkley is also saying is that heo much 438 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 4: bigger than. 439 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 3: Just the T and T man. He's a staple. We 440 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 3: kind of like rely on him. 441 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 4: That he's that wild uncle at the parties man that 442 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 4: you want to hear what he's got to say. 443 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 3: Well, he's going to cut. 444 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 2: Through and tell you tell you straight. At times it 445 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,680 Speaker 2: might get uncomfortable. Now I've argued in all the love 446 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 2: fest with the inside the NBA guy, part of the 447 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: outpouring of emotion is also the content creators and people 448 00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 2: in our business that have stopped actually creating and just 449 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 2: go off of what everybody else says. So the loss 450 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 2: of Barkley and Kenny Smith and Shack with Ernie Johnson 451 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 2: is potentially really damaging to their individual shows. So they 452 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 2: need them to stick around, particularly when it gets to 453 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 2: college basketball season. It's like, hey, hey, you don't know 454 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,159 Speaker 2: about my team, you know, like part of that is 455 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 2: the faux outrage that goes with that of what they 456 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 2: don't know. Yes, they can't watch what is it eighty 457 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 2: two games times thirty teams? Oh, and add all the 458 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 2: college games to Yeah, no, there's not enough bandwidth unless 459 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 2: they're now cyborgs, which would be kind of cool. Cyborg 460 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:29,239 Speaker 2: Charles Barkley is an interesting proposition. But for all of this, 461 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: you know, you've got leverage, and we'll get into Dan 462 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 2: Hurley a little bit. It doesn't have to be one 463 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 2: hundred percent leverage. And part of this could be Yeah, 464 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 2: I'm done with it, right, I'm done with the travel, 465 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 2: I'm done with this. It's time to move on. He 466 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 2: starts naming potential successors and everything else. Ryan, But you know, 467 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 2: part of it is, you know, if they love us 468 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 2: so much and we're so integrated and part of the 469 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 2: NBA viewing experience, let's flex a little bit, get everybody 470 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 2: a pay raise. But one of the things Barkley's done, 471 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 2: and I think brilliantly so during this you know, long 472 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 2: goodbye run that we've had these last months since it 473 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 2: was announced that they might only get a small package 474 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 2: of games versus being shut out altogether at TNT and 475 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 2: Warner Brothers and everything, is that he's talked up how 476 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 2: much the family of it all matters, right, talking family? 477 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 2: Why do they keep making those Fast and the Furious 478 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 2: movies because they make money, But it all comes back 479 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 2: to family, Right. We'd celebrated the seventeenth anniversary of Fade 480 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 2: to Black off the Sopranos final episode. Family, all of 481 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 2: those things. Barklay's talk time and time again of all 482 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 2: the weddings, all the babies, all of the rights of 483 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 2: passage by all the crew members, and he's naming people 484 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 2: off camera people and writers and everything else. And part 485 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 2: of it is you've got leverage to make sure these 486 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 2: people continue to get taken care of professionally and continue 487 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 2: to do what they love either's some responsibility that he 488 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 2: feels there and ownership of that and if he can 489 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 2: squeeze one of the networks to come up with more 490 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 2: of a sweetheart deal. If you're ever going to have 491 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 2: and use that kind of leverage, Oh, here, here's your opportunity. 492 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,640 Speaker 2: So what do you do Game four of the finals. Hey, 493 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 2: by the way, I'm over here on on NBA TV. 494 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 2: I'm going away to Lake Tahoe. So here's my parting statement. 495 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 2: Good night everybody. It's a brilliant move. 496 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 3: No, it is. 497 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,680 Speaker 4: And I worked over there at Turner a lot how 498 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 4: to how to show on Turner on the network and 499 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 4: behind the scenes of is family it is? You know, everybody, 500 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 4: everybody's cool. It's not you know ESPN, you got a 501 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 4: bunch of people running around the hallways. It's it's it's 502 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 4: it's a different feel Fox. We're family there and and 503 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 4: it's it's more almost like an NBA fraternity, you know. 504 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 4: So he's definitely right about that. Uh, the pill is 505 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,720 Speaker 4: there and you know, yeah, you don't. You do not 506 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 4: want to see it go away? And I think for Charles, 507 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 4: you hit it spot on. He's like of anybody probably 508 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 4: outside of Shack, he's like I got the universal say. 509 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 4: You know, if I speak, they're gonna listen to me. 510 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 4: So this is my obligation because for those in production, 511 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 4: if that show goes away, they're gonna have to be 512 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 4: looking for other jobs. They're looking at other networks to 513 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 4: go over with, and and it kind of gets swept 514 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,360 Speaker 4: out from underneath you. So man, hats off to Charles. 515 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 4: It's definitely admirable what he's doing. And it's the truth 516 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 4: of the matter, you know, so nothing that he's saying 517 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 4: is wrong. But again, I think you got to have 518 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 4: a deeper respect because he's made enough money. You know, 519 00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 4: he's made enough money. He's putting his neck on the 520 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,679 Speaker 4: line and saying, hey, I'll retire. I think it's that serious. 521 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 4: You guys don't take care of their guys. Don't just 522 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 4: ask me to go to another network and we go 523 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 4: about it. No, I'm gonna fight for those people who've 524 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 4: had my back every single day and the people that 525 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 4: we've been able to do life with. 526 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 2: He's Ryan Hollins, I'm Mike Carmen here, Fox Sports Radio 527 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 2: and Adam Silver. 528 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:08,640 Speaker 1: You're on the clock. Get a deal done. 529 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,239 Speaker 2: Let's make this all make sense because I need that 530 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 2: wacky uncle still to spill some comfortable truths once in 531 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 2: a while. I was doing a rewatch of The Bear 532 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 2: ahead of season three. Right comes out later on this month. 533 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 2: Right the FX thing set in Chicago, all sorts of 534 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 2: Chicago milestones, music, w XRT, the soundtrack, whatever, And they 535 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 2: have that uncomfortable Christmas episode where they have all these 536 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 2: guest stars. You got Bob Oden Kirk, and there's Jamie 537 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 2: Lee Curtis, and there's all sorts of craziness, and you've 538 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 2: got several crazy uncles at the table. Reminded me of 539 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 2: old time family holidays, some that you think of fondly, 540 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 2: some not so much. But Charles Barkley, I think I 541 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 2: could be entertained for a while, even if he threw 542 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 2: a fork at me. You gotta watch the show if 543 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 2: you to understand that reference. He's Ryan, I'm Mike. It's 544 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,479 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Saturday.

But that's just what I read 564 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 9: into that. I'm just saying anyway. And on the floor 565 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 9: on the court.

So as she continued to 584 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 2: dribble past her, she blew the whistle as hard as 585 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:21,120 Speaker 2: she could and pulled out a yellow card and the 586 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 2: one was like, you just blew my ear drub out. 587 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: So a little bit of. 588 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: Anxiousness there in the opening moments of that game as well. 589 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 2: So you know, a lot of chaos going on in 590 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 2: our sporting universe, which is fantastic because we've got everything going. 591 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 2: We've got game four right of the Stanley Cup final 592 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 2: later on tonight.

So I open it up with this. The 600 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley saga very short lived here in Los Angeles. 601 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 2: The excitement of hey, here's a guy that builds culture, 602 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 2: builds program all of this stuff. Six years reportedly a 603 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 2: seventy million dollar offer goes back to Leverage says, No, 604 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 2: that wasn't it. Look what I've got Like, if I 605 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 2: get task you, Ryan Hollins, to do a task, say 606 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,959 Speaker 2: I give you one hundred thousand dollars budget, and you 607 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 2: not only meet the task, but you crush it. And 608 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 2: then you come back and you have proposals for salary increases, 609 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 2: more technology, whatever else. But the ROI on that can 610 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 2: only be as great as what you've already given me. 611 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 2: Am I giving you that money, Ryan Hollins, Say you 612 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 2: want to add staff change the training room, whatever the 613 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,320 Speaker 2: case is. Now I'm mixing between business and sport, but 614 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 2: the point is the same. If you've achieved the highest 615 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 2: level possible, and why would I give you more resources 616 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 2: and not make a fight for it a little bit? 617 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: So the Danny Hurley leverage thing doesn't play right for me. 618 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 2: But your question is, and it's not one hundred percent right. 619 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 2: It's a giant pie chart and we ascribed some value 620 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 2: to it, but in the end here in Los Angeles, 621 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:19,800 Speaker 2: it now becomes a lot of handwringing of is it 622 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 2: really going to be reddick or what's behind door number two? 623 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 4: You're right about that. I actually just saw Danny Hurley 624 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 4: and you know what, he's out recruiting already. 625 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 1: He got to be right back at it. 626 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, he wasted no time. He was right back at it. 627 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 4: And I think just for the Lakers, it is it's 628 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 4: an embarrassing spot to be in because you know, you 629 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 4: do all this work, you go after a guy, you 630 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 4: make him your number one candidate, and he walks away, 631 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 4: and you know, man, you gotta be shaking your hands. 632 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 4: It's embarrassing. But the reality is, uh, we spoke about this, yes, 633 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 4: say it's tough to coach Lebron, you know, as amazing 634 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 4: as greaty as he is, because it's like, what are 635 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 4: you what are you gonna tell that older guy? You 636 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 4: know you get you know, Mike, I don't know if 637 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 4: you ever got to the point where you're a coach 638 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 4: or a teacher had something to say to you and 639 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,719 Speaker 4: a boss it's like like, hey, can you show up 640 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 4: at this time? And it's like, yeah, I'll show up, 641 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 4: I'll be there. But you know, Lebron's to the point 642 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 4: of what are you gonna say to him? 643 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 3: Man? 644 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 4: He's achieved everything under the sun, and you know, he 645 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 4: comes with a lot. Man, he comes with a lot, 646 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 4: and he's he's well deserved to everything that he's earned 647 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 4: in the basketball universe. So, uh, Danny Hurley a guy 648 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 4: who in college, let me give you perspective, you tell 649 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 4: your guys to get there at five am and get 650 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 4: there at five m when you when you tell him 651 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 4: that we're gonna do X, Y and Z, they kind 652 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 4: of don't have a say. 653 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 3: They kind of got to roll with it and do it. 654 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 3: And Danny Hurley has had a lot of success like that. 655 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 4: So it would have been a huge adaptation and change 656 00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 4: for him to, you know, revamped the way that he 657 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 4: does things. So I think for Danny, I don't think 658 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 4: it was anything personal. It just man, it would have 659 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 4: been a lot of uncharted territory and water for him 660 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 4: coming over to the Lakers. But I think the Lakers 661 00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:15,959 Speaker 4: it wasn't the worst ploy. But it's tough when you 662 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,960 Speaker 4: go after a candidate and that candidate says I'm good, 663 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 4: I'm good. It's not a good look. 664 00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll play through the psychology of that something that 665 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 2: Hurley dropped that Lebron texted him again, curiosity of all 666 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 2: of this playing out, and for Hurley, you know what 667 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 2: that Lebron appearance in inclusion in this Lakers roster would 668 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 2: have meant because short and long term two very different things. 669 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 2: For Danny Hurley, we'll talk about that. He's Ryan Hollins. 670 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 2: I'll buy Karmen.

But you know, some of that combined 692 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 2: with the allure of the NBA and one of the 693 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 2: shiny franchise logos. But you know, you get to keep 694 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 2: the face of college basketball right now, maybe the he 695 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 2: and Tom Izzo and very few others Bill self that 696 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 2: are still you know, the names that you come back to. 697 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 2: But on the Lakers side of things, you know, a 698 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 2: lot of it was a tough week, right you lose 699 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 2: out on Hurley, It gets reported six for seventy and 700 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 2: then you have a very short statement after the passing 701 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 2: of Jerry West. You know, we long established, you know, 702 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 2: still the falling out and division between the Lakers and 703 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 2: one of their all time greats and obviously an all 704 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 2: time game great. So you have that bad pr that 705 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 2: comes out of issuing a tepid four line statement as well. 706 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 2: But for Hurley, for Reddick, for whomever would be in 707 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 2: the job, Ryan, it's the short and long term of 708 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,479 Speaker 2: all right, what's my role while Lebron is still here? 709 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,479 Speaker 2: If he's still here, which was one of the things 710 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 2: he Hurley dropped talking in some of his interviews late 711 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 2: in the week because he has the opportunity to opt out, 712 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 2: but he'd leave a lot of money on the table. 713 00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 2: So I don't think anybody believes that's happening. But you've 714 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 2: got the Lebron years to navigate and then whatever it 715 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 2: becomes in the PostScript, And I got to imagine for 716 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 2: Hurley or somebody else, I get to build it in 717 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 2: my image and what I want to do far more 718 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 2: attractive than what the next two years might. 719 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: Have brought him. 720 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 4: Absolutely, you as a college coach, your GM, your coach, 721 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 4: your president, your owner, you get to pick your guys NBA. 722 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:45,960 Speaker 4: You could be the fourth most important person in the organization, 723 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 4: if not maybe lower. And guess what, You're going to 724 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,240 Speaker 4: be number one when it comes to blame. So Hurley's 725 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 4: probably just like, yeah, I don't know if this deal 726 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,919 Speaker 4: is as attractive as it you make it seem, or hey, 727 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 4: you got to pay me a lot. If I'm gonna 728 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,840 Speaker 4: be the escapegoat, you gotta paid me a lot of 729 00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:04,360 Speaker 4: money for it. 730 00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 3: Man, you might not be enough money. 731 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 4: And you know, at the end of the day, you know, 732 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 4: I think that that's what it came down to, just 733 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:17,919 Speaker 4: wouldn't be worth it has everything again right now, Yes, 734 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 4: the Lakers job is prestigious, but at this moment is 735 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 4: in his career for him to be pulled away. He's saying, 736 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 4: it's it's just not enough, you know, And it doesn't 737 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 4: have to be a shot to the Lakers necessarily, but 738 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 4: it's not enough. 739 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:31,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 740 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 2: I mean when we look at the brand historically and 741 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,279 Speaker 2: you know Boe our executive producer, Laker fan, you know 742 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:43,399 Speaker 2: Los Angeles guy, and we're talking about the history. I mean, 743 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 2: this isn't new, right, This is not some revelation that 744 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 2: the Lakers haven't paid coaches. Hell, they've fought even going 745 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,759 Speaker 2: all the way back in Phil Jackson's money and everything else. 746 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 2: I mean, it's well chronicled all the way through. No 747 00:37:57,200 --> 00:38:01,319 Speaker 2: matter how much success you know marketplace and that ascribing 748 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 2: some value to the brand in the southern California lifestyle, 749 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:06,799 Speaker 2: I mean that only gets you so far with the 750 00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 2: guy that is so ingrained, particularly Hurley and what his 751 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 2: personal brand and history is all about. 752 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: And it's well chronicled. No need to reltigate that here. 753 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 2: But now you've got JJ Reddick established as a minus 754 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 2: five hundred favorite, Ryan Hollins behind him, James Barrego plus 755 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 2: three hundred. You've got Cleveland's job is still open. By 756 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:31,560 Speaker 2: the way, Sam Cassell is nine to one. We've got 757 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,160 Speaker 2: some news on Sam Cassell off a report from one 758 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,720 Speaker 2: of our guys a little bit. You got Chris Quinn 759 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 2: for whatever reason. Ty lewis still on the board even 760 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,160 Speaker 2: with everything going on with the Clippers, which is interesting. 761 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 2: And then you got Atkinson and Adalman at eighteen to one, 762 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 2: and then you start digging deeper from there. 763 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 1: So just a curious lot. 764 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 2: And it's presumed after an interview this weekend that Reddick 765 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 2: finally becomes the guy. Shams will do a victory lap 766 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 2: over a defeated Woes and then win. Horse will still 767 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,359 Speaker 2: be over there, pointing and screaming, I need that. You know, 768 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,480 Speaker 2: that triple threat match added to the clash at the 769 00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:11,799 Speaker 2: Castle here coming up in the next hour. 770 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 3: Look it it is. I mean, the Lakers are making headway, man, 771 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 3: deep into the playoffs. 772 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 4: I mean, this is this is amazing. But man, look again, 773 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 4: it's a tough job to have. The thing is a 774 00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:31,720 Speaker 4: guy like JJ Radick will say, Hey, I'm gonna relish 775 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 4: at the idea to coach Lebron. You know, whatever stipulation 776 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:38,919 Speaker 4: you want to put in there, I'm willing to take 777 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 4: it and abide by them. 778 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 3: You know. 779 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,960 Speaker 4: And if the Lakers go after a tenure coach, remember 780 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 4: Tyd Lou turned the job down one time and said, hey. 781 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 3: You gotta pay me, you gotta give me the. 782 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 4: Years, you gotta give me something and listen, Honestly, for 783 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 4: them to kind of extended the money to Hurley, that 784 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:58,240 Speaker 4: was a first. 785 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:00,400 Speaker 3: I was actually very surprise. 786 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 2: You're certainly a little higher because standard has been a 787 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,920 Speaker 2: five year deal. They went six. Some of the reports 788 00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 2: had it as much as eight, and we'd heard that 789 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 2: mythical one hundred and ten million dollar number was floating 790 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:14,640 Speaker 2: around there. For a hot minute, Ryan, we start talking 791 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:17,279 Speaker 2: about that, you know, because people are trying to, you know, 792 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 2: lick their wounds by saying, well, at least the Lakers 793 00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 2: took their shot, did they did they take their best shot? 794 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 4: Well, you gotta be willing to go. And I think 795 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 4: that the idea also is hardly new.

No, it's not for 841 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 2: Laurence Fishburn yelling at players like we talked about last 842 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 2: week on our Sunday morning show Ryan in the episodes 843 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,720 Speaker 2: of Clipped, where Laurence Fishburn's using his mind. 844 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 1: No, no, no. 845 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 2: He was on the Bill Simmons podcast on Thursday and 846 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:08,839 Speaker 2: he got into deep details of the season that was 847 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,240 Speaker 2: goes back to a little bit of the time in Philly, 848 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 2: how hard it was to win their at home and 849 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:17,160 Speaker 2: people raising their hand going as the team they went 850 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 2: thirty seven and four of the year before what are 851 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 2: you talking about? And then he became the Bucks coach. 852 00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 2: But where I thought it was interesting and wanted to 853 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,800 Speaker 2: get your perspective on this as as a former player, 854 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 2: a guy who's still around a team and around the 855 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:32,320 Speaker 2: league and talking to guys. 856 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:33,919 Speaker 1: He went pretty. 857 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 2: Deep into navigating his run with the Bucks taking over 858 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:45,760 Speaker 2: mid season and the relationship with Damian Lillard. Quote really 859 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:50,480 Speaker 2: hard to navigate Lillard's personal situation, you know, because he 860 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:54,759 Speaker 2: arrives to the Bucks and he was going through a 861 00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 2: divorce and he goes deep in. 862 00:43:59,760 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 10: Here. 863 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 1: That's where it starts. 864 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 2: Ryan, let me start with this quote, Coch we were 865 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:05,040 Speaker 2: out of dinner and he says, Coach, I didn't work 866 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:05,840 Speaker 2: out all summer. 867 00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:07,840 Speaker 1: It's the first time in my life that have not 868 00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:08,279 Speaker 1: worked out. 869 00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:11,000 Speaker 2: I was so scared of getting injured working out well 870 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:13,080 Speaker 2: because he knew he was gonna get traded, right, so 871 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 2: that was in the offing, and continues to go on 872 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 2: talking about him being out of shape and basketball shape 873 00:44:20,239 --> 00:44:22,640 Speaker 2: and everything else. Quote, I did some light running, I 874 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 2: did some shooting with no one in the gym. I 875 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,600 Speaker 2: didn't but I didn't go at all. I'm out of shape, 876 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 2: and he was honest about it. It's one of the reasons 877 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 2: you love him because he's honest. This is the worst 878 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:35,239 Speaker 2: shape I've ever been in. And obviously Lillard tried to 879 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 2: get back in shape. Season ended in the playoffs. He 880 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 2: gets hurt, Giannis is hurt. The Bucks bow out Doc 881 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:46,760 Speaker 2: in his Milwaukee run after what was a fantastic start 882 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 2: thirty and thirteen. They change out the coach and bring 883 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 2: Doc in from the broadcast booth, and it's an uneven 884 00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:58,799 Speaker 2: season thereafter, and Lillard ends up injured. But as soon 885 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:02,440 Speaker 2: as he started going into the discussions of Lillard being 886 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:05,319 Speaker 2: out of shape, I started feeling a little bit uncomfortable, 887 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,279 Speaker 2: like this was out of bounds. I think everybody on 888 00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 2: the outside looking in and wondered how he was handling 889 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:15,000 Speaker 2: things mentally. And Lillard had talked about some of that, 890 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 2: being away from his kids at times and going through 891 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:22,239 Speaker 2: the divorce and changing venues after a decade plus in 892 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,879 Speaker 2: one spot. But it made me a bit uncomfortable when 893 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 2: you start getting into these conversations of well, here's what 894 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 2: he told me. Was he Doc out of bounds for 895 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 2: doing this with Simmons or is it a kind of 896 00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:38,200 Speaker 2: an attempt on some level not only to absolve himself 897 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,880 Speaker 2: for what happened in the second half, but also maybe 898 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:44,839 Speaker 2: humanizing Damian Lillard, maybe to a fault. 899 00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:47,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he hit it spot on. I think, 900 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:52,360 Speaker 4: you know, I don't know what the intent was. It 901 00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:57,879 Speaker 4: can be drawn from both ways, and for Doc, Doc 902 00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 4: has already you know, scene as you know, deflecting, you know, 903 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:06,040 Speaker 4: and a lot of time coaches say, hey, I messed up, 904 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 4: my bad. You know, this one was on me, and 905 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 4: it looks like he's saying, hey, well, it's not my 906 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 4: fault Lillard. You know, Lillard was going through, you know, 907 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:20,320 Speaker 4: whatever he was going through, and you know, I don't 908 00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 4: know the intent behind it, so I don't want to say, 909 00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:24,800 Speaker 4: you know, how could he do this? There he goes again, 910 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 4: and you know, obviously at this point people are looking 911 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,640 Speaker 4: for clips and looking for things that have been said 912 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:31,480 Speaker 4: to that degree. 913 00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:35,040 Speaker 3: But I don't know where it goes. 914 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 4: And it is tough now to give Doc the benefit 915 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 4: of the doubt because you know he's kind of, you know, 916 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 4: made these excuses, and he did. 917 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:46,959 Speaker 3: He stepped into a tough situation with the team that was. 918 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 4: Really really good and doing well, and then you know 919 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 4: he had to take over and within that the team faltered. 920 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 3: You know. 921 00:46:56,640 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 4: So for Doc, I don't know where to take it, 922 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 4: but you think it might be wise to stay away 923 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:06,760 Speaker 4: from it. But at the end of the day, look, 924 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 4: as long as the guys in that locker room are 925 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,800 Speaker 4: on the same page as him, ownership and the president 926 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 4: are comfortable with things that he's doing and saying that, 927 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 4: that's really all that matters at the point. But you know, 928 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 4: you don't want to lose the players. And I think 929 00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:27,320 Speaker 4: that Yannis is is kind of learning those lebron Like problems. 930 00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:29,839 Speaker 4: And when I say that lebron Like problems is when 931 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:33,240 Speaker 4: you become so good that whatever you have to say goals. 932 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 4: If you say, hey, I want my brother to be 933 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,439 Speaker 4: on the team, boom, Hey, I don't think I really 934 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 4: get along with the coach boom, coaches fired, you know, 935 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,080 Speaker 4: and those things happen. Guess what, You're gonna get that 936 00:47:44,160 --> 00:47:47,319 Speaker 4: responsibility on the other end, And you can't just go, 937 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:51,879 Speaker 4: oh man, it wasn't me, It was it was somebody else. 938 00:47:52,080 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, Yiannis.

You know, you're a 978 00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:46,600 Speaker 2: babyface for a lot of years and everybody's cheering you, 979 00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 2: all right, factions of the audience don't. But then you 980 00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 2: go full on heel. You're gonna hear some things you 981 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:57,560 Speaker 2: probably hadn't heard before. Same same thing as a player, right, 982 00:49:57,640 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 2: Everything was great with Giannis and then you have a 983 00:49:59,760 --> 00:50:02,880 Speaker 2: couple the first round exits, you add some injury stuff 984 00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 2: and people can look and say, you built this team 985 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,480 Speaker 2: as you wanted to it. So with that becomes the 986 00:50:08,520 --> 00:50:12,440 Speaker 2: responsibility of hey, it's not just you didn't you average, 987 00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,480 Speaker 2: you know, thirty eight and eight or whatever the stats 988 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:17,480 Speaker 2: would be. It's like, well, if you didn't win enough, 989 00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:20,360 Speaker 2: it's because you failed to put a team together. And 990 00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:25,239 Speaker 2: it becomes less about the GM Cavalcadive stars come through 991 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,959 Speaker 2: as a coach, they become less and less important because 992 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 2: it becomes about you and your history. 993 00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:35,880 Speaker 4: Yep, and you brought these guys here, and you know 994 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,520 Speaker 4: it is tough because as much as you want to 995 00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:42,200 Speaker 4: keep things in the locker room or you know, behind 996 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 4: closed doors, you got to come and answer and you 997 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:48,359 Speaker 4: can see these major moves being made and you know, ultimately, man, 998 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 4: a lot of times this would drop me crazy as 999 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,799 Speaker 4: a player. You know, sometimes you have to protect the 1000 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 4: brand and protect the shield. And there's a difference where 1001 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,680 Speaker 4: you know, in the locker room, we know what went on, 1002 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:05,840 Speaker 4: we know why that guy was fired, we know it happened, 1003 00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:10,759 Speaker 4: but you're not gonna go out and say it and 1004 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 4: or put it out because it's not your place. 1005 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:18,920 Speaker 3: And you know it's it's what his side, her side, 1006 00:51:18,920 --> 00:51:20,640 Speaker 3: and the truth, no, right. 1007 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,920 Speaker 2: Right, three sides to every story. It's kind of like 1008 00:51:24,040 --> 00:51:26,560 Speaker 2: you know, me watching clipped, I have a million questions, 1009 00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:28,840 Speaker 2: But you've already told me you ain't watching, so you 1010 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:31,479 Speaker 2: can binge watch the whole series. So at some point 1011 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:33,680 Speaker 2: I'm just bringing a bunch of food for you and 1012 00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,480 Speaker 2: your family. I'll fly to Houston if I got to, 1013 00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:38,799 Speaker 2: and you and I are going to binge watch this, 1014 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 2: and I'm just gonna have a running recorder when they 1015 00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,640 Speaker 2: do the basketball side of it, so you can set 1016 00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:46,680 Speaker 2: me straight of what actually happened. 1017 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:46,759 Speaker 1: In all this. 1018 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:48,960 Speaker 3: Oh my goodness. 1019 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:51,960 Speaker 1: See what I did there.

Hey, 1189 01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 2: here's two guys we're paying over five hundred million dollars 1190 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:15,960 Speaker 2: in salary to but street lights over spotlights. Come on now, 1191 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:18,920 Speaker 2: get out of here with that. Mark Stein was with 1192 01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:21,160 Speaker 2: us earlier this week. There's two coaching things that are 1193 01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:23,640 Speaker 2: kind of interesting coming out of these final both related 1194 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 2: to guys. I'm currently employed by the Celtics one Jeff 1195 01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:32,800 Speaker 2: van Gundy, who's a special assistant advising Missoula as well 1196 01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 2: as Brian Stevens, that he may leave to become part 1197 01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:41,120 Speaker 2: of Tylo's staff with the Clippers. Meanwhile, there's a path 1198 01:00:41,480 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 2: that Sam Cassel leaves and not to be the Lakers 1199 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:48,920 Speaker 2: head coach currently nine to one odds, but he would 1200 01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 2: go to the bench alongside Darvin Ham and the aforementioned 1201 01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:53,120 Speaker 2: Doc Rivers. 1202 01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:58,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's just a lot going on, man, how about that? Yeah? 1203 01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:01,600 Speaker 4: The NBABA a soap opera, man, there it is. There 1204 01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:05,160 Speaker 4: is a lot oking Listen. I'm here for it. I 1205 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:10,080 Speaker 4: think the one thing is you call it the coaching carousel, 1206 01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:12,040 Speaker 4: and it's always going to be active in the NBA 1207 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:15,600 Speaker 4: because unfortunately it's it's one of the least secure jobs 1208 01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:17,680 Speaker 4: that you can have. You're paid quite handsomely, so no 1209 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:20,120 Speaker 4: one's gonna feel sorry for you the way that you 1210 01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:22,480 Speaker 4: may expect. But at the end of the day, I 1211 01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:25,800 Speaker 4: think it's, uh, it's good for the sport. But you know, hey, 1212 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 4: there there's a lot of movement in drama, and you 1213 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:32,160 Speaker 4: know it's tough because a lot of these guys when 1214 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 4: they get fired, it's it's it's truth, is it's not 1215 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:38,560 Speaker 4: fair or you know, you're asking what are the qualifications 1216 01:01:38,560 --> 01:01:39,360 Speaker 4: of a good job? 1217 01:01:39,400 --> 01:01:41,480 Speaker 3: What? What else were you supposed to do? 1218 01:01:42,920 --> 01:01:45,360 Speaker 1: Are you speaking directly for Darvin Ham in that moment? 1219 01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:52,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, him, Yeah, Well that's I mean, I mean, we're. 1220 01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:55,080 Speaker 2: Plenty of guys where it's like, and we do this 1221 01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:57,160 Speaker 2: in every sport, like that guy got a one and done. 1222 01:01:57,200 --> 01:01:58,840 Speaker 1: It's like, why how. 1223 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 4: Many times have the coach of the year been fired? 1224 01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:03,400 Speaker 4: I mean several times, it's. 1225 01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:07,360 Speaker 2: Right, whereas in other organization you get a very long 1226 01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 2: headre It's like he took us to a finals once, 1227 01:02:09,800 --> 01:02:12,120 Speaker 2: we can't get rid of him, and you keep blowing 1228 01:02:12,160 --> 01:02:14,600 Speaker 2: from there. But yeah, the carousel just starting to spin 1229 01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:18,400 Speaker 2: from the assistant side of things, and certainly free agencies 1230 01:02:18,440 --> 01:02:21,000 Speaker 2: still a ways away. But had to highlight the little 1231 01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:24,520 Speaker 2: Joel embiid back and forth and what really is quote 1232 01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:27,920 Speaker 2: unquote tampering.

Boe doing his Dodgers podcast. 1303 01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:10,919 Speaker 2: I'm sure ball strikes and decisions made by umpires gets 1304 01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:13,400 Speaker 2: discussed from time to time in terms of, you know, 1305 01:06:13,480 --> 01:06:16,680 Speaker 2: pitching acumen and a flow of a game, much like 1306 01:06:16,720 --> 01:06:20,320 Speaker 2: we were talking about officiating Ryan related to Luka Doncics 1307 01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:24,640 Speaker 2: and physicality and NBA play. But during this there's a 1308 01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:27,600 Speaker 2: statement from Major League Baseball. During this year spring training, 1309 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,640 Speaker 2: Major League Baseball commenced an investigation regarding the potential violation 1310 01:06:31,720 --> 01:06:36,160 Speaker 2: of MLB's sports betting policies by umpire Pat Hobert. Hoburger 1311 01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:39,959 Speaker 2: was removed from the field during the pendency. I haven't 1312 01:06:39,960 --> 01:06:41,960 Speaker 2: seen the word pendency in writing, so it may be 1313 01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:45,680 Speaker 2: take pauses say of that investigation, Well, I've heard it. 1314 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:46,680 Speaker 1: It just doesn't sound right. 1315 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:51,640 Speaker 2: While like impending investigation or pending investigation seem more appropriate. 1316 01:06:51,800 --> 01:06:54,720 Speaker 2: While MLB's investigation, here's the key line, because I want 1317 01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:56,920 Speaker 2: to take this to the NBA and go back to 1318 01:06:57,000 --> 01:07:00,880 Speaker 2: the Donneghie situation. While MLB's investigator did not find any 1319 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 2: evidence that games worked by mister Hoberg were compromised or 1320 01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:08,920 Speaker 2: manipulated in any way, MLB determined that discipline was warranted. 1321 01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:12,800 Speaker 2: He's choosing to appeal that determination and we cannot comment 1322 01:07:12,960 --> 01:07:16,040 Speaker 2: any further, and so he goes on from there. So okay, 1323 01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:21,800 Speaker 2: they they don't find any any evidence of malpractice, manipulation, 1324 01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:24,880 Speaker 2: whatever term you want to use on his part while 1325 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:27,840 Speaker 2: he's umpiring games. Again, he had a perfecto, so you know, 1326 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:29,760 Speaker 2: one of those that could have been the walkoff moment. 1327 01:07:30,120 --> 01:07:33,360 Speaker 2: But now that statement leads me to believe that you 1328 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:39,080 Speaker 2: have potential for other officials names to potentially circle in 1329 01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:42,160 Speaker 2: as part of these investigations, much like we had, you know, 1330 01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 2: the names of gambling outfits and everything else during the 1331 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 2: Epay Masahara and Shoho Tani thing. But go back to 1332 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,479 Speaker 2: the Donneghy thing. You know how much around the league 1333 01:07:54,520 --> 01:07:56,480 Speaker 2: at that point, Ryan, you were new to the NBA, 1334 01:07:57,000 --> 01:07:59,960 Speaker 2: you know, as that started flowing around, did everybody kind 1335 01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:03,320 Speaker 2: to look side eyes at everybody in the officiating game 1336 01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:05,600 Speaker 2: as information of that started to swirl. 1337 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:13,040 Speaker 4: I think there's so much complaining about the officials already 1338 01:08:14,120 --> 01:08:14,800 Speaker 4: that it kind. 1339 01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:16,000 Speaker 1: Of gets lost a little bit in the. 1340 01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:19,440 Speaker 4: Wash, and you you just kind of stay out of it, 1341 01:08:19,600 --> 01:08:23,559 Speaker 4: you know. But there's already enough frustration or they don't 1342 01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:25,559 Speaker 4: make a call, or they don't like me, or they 1343 01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:28,599 Speaker 4: don't this or you know, I'm the number of other guys. 1344 01:08:28,920 --> 01:08:30,600 Speaker 3: I knew it. I knew it, I knew it. You know. 1345 01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:34,559 Speaker 4: So the dismay for some of the officials that's already 1346 01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:38,600 Speaker 4: at such a high that I don't think you know, 1347 01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:41,720 Speaker 4: you're going, oh wow, this happened this, and you know, hey, 1348 01:08:41,800 --> 01:08:44,519 Speaker 4: there may be some guys that can kind of glean 1349 01:08:44,640 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 4: back and go, hold on, I played in this game, 1350 01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:48,800 Speaker 4: and this costs me this, this and this. 1351 01:08:49,400 --> 01:08:52,679 Speaker 2: You know so, but you start to extrapolate, right, one 1352 01:08:52,720 --> 01:08:56,320 Speaker 2: win here, one win there, start talking about potentially, you know, 1353 01:08:56,360 --> 01:08:58,639 Speaker 2: to say you missed the playoffs by two or three games, 1354 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:00,800 Speaker 2: and you can go back and point to you know, 1355 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,519 Speaker 2: that didn't look quite right. Look, I go back to 1356 01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:07,280 Speaker 2: my Northwestern squad. I graduated ninety five. Nineteen ninety four. 1357 01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:10,560 Speaker 2: There was a huge point shaving scandal actually involved a 1358 01:09:10,600 --> 01:09:12,519 Speaker 2: bunch of guys I knew, which is really oh wow. 1359 01:09:12,560 --> 01:09:14,760 Speaker 2: It was really disheartening. And there were guys I used 1360 01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:17,600 Speaker 2: to get road tickets from. I had no idea, but 1361 01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:20,640 Speaker 2: as it started to break, I was fully prepared to 1362 01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:23,640 Speaker 2: be made the fall guy. Fortunately I was not. I 1363 01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:25,960 Speaker 2: had no knowledge, and it broke my heart and still, 1364 01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:29,320 Speaker 2: all these years later, there's you know, still you know, 1365 01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:32,000 Speaker 2: some shock and awe that none of us in the 1366 01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 2: building that would sit and watch NFL games or whatever 1367 01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:38,040 Speaker 2: had any idea that this was going on. What was 1368 01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:41,200 Speaker 2: funny is we raised money for an event called dance Marathon. 1369 01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:43,679 Speaker 2: A lot of schools have these, right twenty four hours, 1370 01:09:43,680 --> 01:09:46,880 Speaker 2: you picked the charity that you're dancing for. We actually 1371 01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,680 Speaker 2: made my T shirts of one of the guys from 1372 01:09:49,720 --> 01:09:52,479 Speaker 2: the basketball side of things that on the back. When 1373 01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:57,040 Speaker 2: he'd come to quote study and work on group projects, 1374 01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:59,639 Speaker 2: it would immediately become the Sega genesis, would get fired 1375 01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:01,040 Speaker 2: up and goes, so, I bet I could beat you. 1376 01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:02,920 Speaker 1: We put that on the back of a shirt. 1377 01:10:04,320 --> 01:10:05,200 Speaker 3: I bet you. 1378 01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:07,320 Speaker 2: I bet I could beat you in Sega was the 1379 01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:09,040 Speaker 2: It was the line that he would use, and it 1380 01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:12,360 Speaker 2: had a caricature on the front. It got some notoriety 1381 01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:15,360 Speaker 2: from the Northwestern Paper and the Sun Times, and then 1382 01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:17,439 Speaker 2: he ends up becoming one of the focal points of 1383 01:10:17,479 --> 01:10:17,840 Speaker 2: this thing. 1384 01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:20,439 Speaker 1: Oh my god, how crazy is that? 1385 01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:25,479 Speaker 2: But just showing I mean it's been persistent, I mean, 1386 01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:27,920 Speaker 2: and that and that goes back thirty years at this point, 1387 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:30,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you're talking, you know, the the long gestation 1388 01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 2: of this, but you go back to singular plays. On 1389 01:10:33,200 --> 01:10:35,360 Speaker 2: the football side, there was a fumble where the guy 1390 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:37,839 Speaker 2: literally dropped the ball at the goal line against Iowa, 1391 01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:40,479 Speaker 2: and it was one we had a family thing. We 1392 01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:42,720 Speaker 2: normally went to the road games. That one we were 1393 01:10:42,760 --> 01:10:45,240 Speaker 2: watching on TV. Our brothers and I looked at each 1394 01:10:45,280 --> 01:10:49,519 Speaker 2: other and went, what the hell was that? No contact, 1395 01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:52,240 Speaker 2: no injury, not like he you know, ripped a hamstring 1396 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:54,680 Speaker 2: and was now you know, flailing on the ground as 1397 01:10:54,720 --> 01:10:56,040 Speaker 2: the ball went into the end zone. 1398 01:10:56,439 --> 01:10:57,280 Speaker 1: Was wait? What? 1399 01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:00,960 Speaker 2: And that became the focal point. So I gotta imagine 1400 01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:03,160 Speaker 2: as a player, you know, sometimes there might be a 1401 01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:05,880 Speaker 2: little hindsight twenty twenty going, wait, I remember that call 1402 01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:08,439 Speaker 2: and that guy, and you know, you wonder how much 1403 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:11,240 Speaker 2: you know coming out of this with Major League Baseball 1404 01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:14,120 Speaker 2: when they say, hey, we couldn't find anything in his games, Well, 1405 01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:16,160 Speaker 2: you still kept him off the field for the first 1406 01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:19,960 Speaker 2: several months, even after calling a perfect World Series game. 1407 01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:21,759 Speaker 1: So clearly you found something. 1408 01:11:22,280 --> 01:11:24,800 Speaker 2: And we're all we're all smart enough to try to, 1409 01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:27,679 Speaker 2: you know, add one in one, Like I gotta imagine 1410 01:11:27,720 --> 01:11:30,320 Speaker 2: you got some other umpires feeling pretty nervous right now. 1411 01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:32,680 Speaker 2: That an investigation is going to be knocking on their 1412 01:11:32,720 --> 01:11:35,600 Speaker 2: door any day if they haven't already, and we just 1413 01:11:35,640 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 2: don't have that disclosed. 1414 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:41,599 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's got to be, uh, you know, a scary 1415 01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:46,280 Speaker 4: place to be in. You know, just don't do it. 1416 01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:46,640 Speaker 3: You know. 1417 01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:49,840 Speaker 4: For me, I always think about what the big the 1418 01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:52,240 Speaker 4: big end result is or okay, I did a little bit, 1419 01:11:52,280 --> 01:11:54,360 Speaker 4: let me, let me stop. It's just not smart. 1420 01:11:54,400 --> 01:11:58,520 Speaker 1: But I guess you reward maybe. 1421 01:11:57,800 --> 01:12:00,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, risk first reward is right, but it's you know, 1422 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:04,280 Speaker 4: it is it's it's it's tough, and you know, challenges 1423 01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:07,000 Speaker 4: the integrity of the sport, and you know, you may 1424 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:11,600 Speaker 4: see more of these things arise. Why because gambling is 1425 01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:13,519 Speaker 4: accessible and it's right there on your phone. 1426 01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:13,920 Speaker 3: Dude. 1427 01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:17,120 Speaker 4: See before you'd have to go find a bookie, you know, 1428 01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:19,519 Speaker 4: go go place bats worked over, you can do this 1429 01:12:19,560 --> 01:12:23,080 Speaker 4: stuff right on your phone. So I'm hoping the athletes 1430 01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:25,720 Speaker 4: stay away from it. They see that it's it's it's 1431 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:28,760 Speaker 4: not worth it at the end of the day, and 1432 01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:32,640 Speaker 4: you know, yeah, it's it's it's kind of honestly, it's 1433 01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:34,160 Speaker 4: kind of crazy to see. 1434 01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:37,000 Speaker 2: I mean, you had minor leaguers suspended.

Take it on the iHeartRadio app if you 1469 01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,200 Speaker 2: decided you need to walk the dog, or get a 1470 01:14:20,240 --> 01:14:23,400 Speaker 2: little bit of exercise or run some errands on a Saturday. 1471 01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:26,320 Speaker 2: Keep the line moving as it were, Ryan and I'll 1472 01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:29,880 Speaker 2: be back tomorrow six am Pacific time. More for the 1473 01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:33,559 Speaker 2: NBA Finals, all of the different storylines across the NBA, 1474 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:37,000 Speaker 2: Trevor Lawrence getting paid. There's so much going on, so 1475 01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:40,120 Speaker 2: much of a rich time of year, but it's also 1476 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:42,320 Speaker 2: that time. I told you I'm in the middle, in 1477 01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:46,000 Speaker 2: the throes of one of these industry leagues, mock drafts already, 1478 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:51,680 Speaker 2: Ryan Allins round twelve, and my roster is clean, all right. 1479 01:14:51,720 --> 01:14:53,920 Speaker 2: I got a lot of high risk, high reward guys 1480 01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,080 Speaker 2: because I like to live life on the edge in 1481 01:14:56,720 --> 01:14:59,600 Speaker 2: fake football. That doesn't cost me anything except my reputation. 1482 01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:03,200 Speaker 2: So I got a bunch of guys fighting for contracts, 1483 01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:05,719 Speaker 2: a bunch of guys that are fighting all over the place. 1484 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:08,880 Speaker 2: But we're wrapping up. You know, some of the guys 1485 01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:13,599 Speaker 2: for last season are still well. They're paying off their 1486 01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:16,720 Speaker 2: league futility. And it's only appropriate that we do this 1487 01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:20,160 Speaker 2: story in a week where we had Joey Chestnut and 1488 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:23,160 Speaker 2: the Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest as part of it. Now, 1489 01:15:23,160 --> 01:15:26,519 Speaker 2: he signed a deal with a brand who's gotten far 1490 01:15:27,600 --> 01:15:29,840 Speaker 2: too much equity for me to give out their name 1491 01:15:29,920 --> 01:15:30,880 Speaker 2: for free. 1492 01:15:30,720 --> 01:15:32,599 Speaker 1: On the show. But let's just say it's a rival. 1493 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:36,240 Speaker 2: So he may or may not participate in the July 1494 01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:41,439 Speaker 2: fourth festivities. There's already a showdown with the old ruler 1495 01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:45,200 Speaker 2: of the land, Kobayashi, set for Labor Day weekend. Again, 1496 01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:48,080 Speaker 2: everybody trying to get paid, everybody getting their money. But 1497 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:52,719 Speaker 2: here's a guy that posted yesterday about a fantasy football 1498 01:15:52,800 --> 01:15:57,759 Speaker 2: league punishment for finishing last and it's already got three 1499 01:15:57,960 --> 01:16:01,120 Speaker 2: million views, So we're gonna bring it Isaac bo and 1500 01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:05,160 Speaker 2: Chris to talk about this one because it's an interesting 1501 01:16:05,240 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 2: strategy point. 1502 01:16:06,160 --> 01:16:08,080 Speaker 1: And I sent this all to all of you. 1503 01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:13,400 Speaker 2: He's got to go and spend twenty four hours at McDonald's, 1504 01:16:14,560 --> 01:16:18,599 Speaker 2: but he can eat his way out, now, hear me out. 1505 01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:21,639 Speaker 1: I sent you the menu and they want the guys 1506 01:16:21,640 --> 01:16:24,640 Speaker 1: in the league agreed to these times, and there is 1507 01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:29,200 Speaker 1: a time associated with each item from breakfast all the 1508 01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:33,880 Speaker 1: way through desserts that if he consumes said item, he 1509 01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:37,120 Speaker 1: can reduce the amount of time he has to spend 1510 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:41,760 Speaker 1: in said McDonald's. Now this is a glorious thing. 1511 01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:44,559 Speaker 2: Now it comes down to gluttoney and how much you 1512 01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:47,240 Speaker 2: know the capacity is there? I mean, Ryan, you've always 1513 01:16:47,240 --> 01:16:49,519 Speaker 2: had a very fast metabolism. You and I have talked 1514 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:53,040 Speaker 2: about this quite a bit during your playing days and 1515 01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:56,479 Speaker 2: even in the post post playing days, still lean and 1516 01:16:56,560 --> 01:16:57,080 Speaker 2: mean and. 1517 01:16:57,120 --> 01:17:00,360 Speaker 1: Rocking the three piece suit like no other.

You just made boat 1546 01:18:09,240 --> 01:18:09,799 Speaker 2: and crack? 1547 01:18:10,600 --> 01:18:12,000 Speaker 1: What do you think?

Either that or I mean he's 1551 01:18:24,160 --> 01:18:26,960 Speaker 2: got to he's an influencer, try and to make his mark. 1552 01:18:27,320 --> 01:18:29,559 Speaker 2: You mentioned that this guy has to pay for his 1553 01:18:29,560 --> 01:18:32,599 Speaker 2: own food, right, I think that's part of the gages. Yeah, 1554 01:18:32,640 --> 01:18:34,719 Speaker 2: that changes it for that turns me into the Oakland 1555 01:18:34,760 --> 01:18:38,599 Speaker 2: Athletics where I gotta find the inefficiencies and the menu here. 1556 01:18:38,680 --> 01:18:40,160 Speaker 1: Did you find one that stood out? 1557 01:18:40,320 --> 01:18:44,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, the the quarter pounder with cheese is only fifteen 1558 01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:46,040 Speaker 2: minutes less than the double quarter pounder, So I think 1559 01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:48,920 Speaker 2: you got to go with that. But if we're paying 1560 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:51,599 Speaker 2: it for yourself, the mcdouble is the way to go 1561 01:18:51,880 --> 01:18:54,320 Speaker 2: two for four.
