Yes, we can. 23 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: Tire Rack remember that name. For over forty years, it's 24 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,120 Speaker 1: a long time. Over forty years, tire Rack has been 25 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: helping customers like truck or Joe find the right tires 26 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: for how, what and where they drive.

And 30 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: Stevie Meatball says, you know, I like that a spicy meatball. 31 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: He says, that's great, Stevie Meatballs. But sometimes when you 32 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: eat too many spicy meatballs, well you end up sitting 33 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: in the powder room. And then if you have the 34 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: wrong kind of toilet paper, it's a problem. Right, you 35 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about? You feel me on that? Yeah, 36 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: that dry toilet paper, that one ply, it's like sandpaper. 37 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: Who wants to rub sandpaper in that area? It's a 38 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: very important area. A lot of good stuff happens there. 39 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: It's the the exit. So anyway, there's something better. Switched 40 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: to life changing wet extra large flushable dude wipes because 41 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: weather just cleans better. Available Amazon and at major retailers nationwide. 42 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: Dude Wipes best clean and the pants down. You see 43 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: how that works there. Yeah, and Miguel on Fire wanted 44 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 1: to know about Draft Well. This show is sponsored in 45 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: part by DraftKings sportsbook, unofficial sports betting partner of the NFL, 46 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: and and me a right now, use the promo code 47 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,839 Speaker 1: Mallord to claim your special offer at DraftKings. Again, that's 48 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 1: promo code Malord. At DraftKings, the crown is yours. So 49 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: I lead this hour from the NBA and we are 50 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: closing in on the trade deadline. I know you're excited. 51 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: Try to control your emotion. It's a very emotional time 52 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: you've everclemped. So a shooting star leaving town. I think 53 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: you know where I'm going. I gave the the cool 54 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: way at the start here, but perhaps you were not 55 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: paying attention. Bad job by you. So we have learned 56 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: that Giannis at Entekombo is ready for a new home. Yes, 57 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: this is the classic NBA drama o rama here. The 58 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: trade deadline is February fifth, that would be next week, 59 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: And there are several teams that are racing, jockeying for 60 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: position aggressively. I love the dramatic thespian reporting here. They're 61 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: jocking for a position, making offers, trying to woo woo 62 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Bucks. Who are I like this too? Aggressively listening? 63 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: How does one aggressively listen? You turn the volume all 64 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: the way up. You're aggressively listening? Is alf aggressively listening? Fergnog? 65 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: Are you aggressively listening? So let's pull back the curtain 66 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: on the NBA's soap opera. This soap opera good jumping 67 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: off point. Let us discuss the question who is calling 68 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: the shots? Who do you think is calling the shots 69 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: in this Bucks? Giannis adent to combo trade thriller. So 70 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: my observations, I've got boarding pass b oh and itchy 71 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: and scratchy, and we'll put these things together. One two three, 72 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 1: We're gonna play connect three. Connect three is what we're 73 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: gonna do. So number number one, Okay, after a minutes 74 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: long Mallard deliberation on the available evidence, we have determined 75 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: that Yannis, who has a full note trade clause period stop, 76 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: is the one who's wearing the pants. End of discussion. 77 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: He is the Halsee Kern of this production. You know 78 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: who that is Gone with the Wind, the guy that 79 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 1: edited Gone with the Wind, Hollywood legend, Holseee kern oscar 80 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: winning editor. And Yannis is in the cutting room and 81 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: he's splicing the scenes. He's tossing reels in the trash 82 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: right now, deciding where he wants to go and then 83 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: roll the credits. And it's not the Buck's decision. It 84 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: is not the Greek freak. He can hold a relocation 85 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: webinar at a cheesy airport hotel. He's got the final edit. 86 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: He's got the final edit. Milwaukee's just the travel agent. 87 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 1: They're stamping the passport wherever he wants to go, and 88 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: they smile politely and say go on your way. So 89 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 1: it's not gone with the Wind, per se. It's more 90 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: like gone with the Wind, The Great Escape from the 91 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: Bad Doc. What's up? Doc? Doc Rivers? Has anyone screwed 92 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: things up more than Doc Rivers? My goodness, he is 93 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 1: the common denominator. He is anyway, Joe Giannis, as everyone 94 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: kind of predicted, this is so simple to telegraph. He 95 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: wanted to get away and get out of basketball purgatory, 96 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: so the Bucks can listen all they want. Listening does 97 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: not mean deciding. And this is the auction where the 98 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 1: seller does not actually own the merch. You do not 99 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: own the merch. Here the Greek freak is basically standing 100 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: at the airport gate. He's looking at all the planes 101 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: out there on the tarmac and all that, and he's 102 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: got his boarding pass in hand, he's got his luggage 103 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 1: tagged Legacy upgrade, Legacy upgrade, and the roll call. You 104 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 1: have the usual suspects, New York, Miami, Golden State to LA. 105 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: Of course LA is not really that realistic, the Lakers 106 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: or the Clippers. But then you got some wildcard teams there, 107 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: but the top teams are the bright lights, the big stage, 108 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: the extra sauce, extra butter on your popcorn. And then 109 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: you got others that are lurking around, like would you 110 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: want to go to Minnesota? That seems like a pretty 111 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: lateral move there. And then you got to have annoying 112 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: fans like that guy that works at the Walmart, that 113 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: guy bustering your you know what, so I don't know 114 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 1: if you want that, And some are saying that Giannis, 115 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: he's not from the States. You know, he'd be willing 116 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: to go to Toronto and play. Most people don't want to 117 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: play in Toronto, but he'd be like, oh, yeah, I 118 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: go there. That's a wild card. He saw the Raptors 119 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: nixt game last night. Chances are he would not want 120 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: to go there. But it's only one game. So Toronto 121 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: said to be lurking in the shadows like a poker 122 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: player with a straight flush. So this is a cosmic tail, 123 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: as Andrea the astrology insider would say, it's a cosmic tiale. 124 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: Yannis in this little play, it's an elementary school play. 125 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: Is the Sun and all of these other teams are 126 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: adjusting their orbit. They're all adjusting their orbit around the Sun, 127 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: and the leagues waiting the dramas building expect seven or 128 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:28,239 Speaker 1: eight more daily plot twist on. Yannis is really liking 129 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: what he's hearing from Team X. However, Team Y and 130 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: Z are also interested the plot. Dickens. Yeah, so again, 131 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: it's not a trading block. It's an auction house paddle 132 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: up billionaire owners. Giannis is like a fine piece of art, 133 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: and these owners are going to try to get their 134 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: hands on it, and sois. It's not exactly like being moved. 135 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: It's like, let me choose, I can live anywhere I want, 136 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: assuming it's one of the members of the cartel, and 137 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna handpick where I want to go. Yeah, that's 138 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: the ticket, and pick where I want to go. Now, 139 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: as for the value of the Greek freek, is this 140 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: value shopping? The question is Yannis Adendakoombo a safe bet 141 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 1: to acquire prior to the trade deadline. So if you 142 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: look at this like the weather, you know, I say, 143 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: clear skies, partly cloudy, overcast, completely cloudy, You're screwed. Stay inside, 144 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: don't go outside. It's foggy. The forecast for Giannis is foggy. 145 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: In terms of his long term outlooks, we're talking about 146 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 1: a man whose entire existence he's I think he's listed 147 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: at two forty. He probably plays a lot bigger than that, 148 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: to sixty to fifty two sixty bigger than that. He's 149 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: got the Greek god Mantra. That's his whole existence, and 150 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,960 Speaker 1: the way he plays is explosive. He's like a runaway 151 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: freight train when he's at his peak, and that freight 152 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: train has a radiator leak. Now it is our belief 153 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 1: and the belief of many that Giannis is embellishing the 154 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: injury because he does not want to get hurt legitimately 155 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 1: before he is traded. And so what Giannis is doing 156 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: is the old Oh my aching back, you know, it'll 157 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: fix my back, a nice new jersey, new uniform that'll 158 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 1: really make my back feel better, and my leg and 159 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: my calf and all that stuff. The reason despite the risk, 160 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: when you look at the COMPS players his age, with 161 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 1: the injuries that he's had over recent years, the comp 162 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: the difference between the others, I should say, is the bo. 163 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: But this is not your normal bo. Yeah, I'm not 164 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: talking about body odor. I'm talking about box Office, the 165 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: sweet smelling bo box Office. It's a sold out theater 166 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: with a line around the block at Broadway in Times 167 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:54,480 Speaker 1: Square there and going over to Times Square. And then 168 00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: the lead actor's knees are made of uncooked fetacini and 169 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: it's not real, real good, long term that feted chene's 170 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: gonna you know, snap and all that stuff. But the 171 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: NBA is really dealing with a shortage of people that 172 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: move the needle, and there are many reasons for that, 173 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: Like the players decide over the last ten years or 174 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 1: so that they don't give a crap about the regular season, 175 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:21,319 Speaker 1: so why should the fans care? And they just kind 176 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: of load manage and so you load managing people as fans, 177 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 1: we load manage and so. And I have noticed, I 178 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,679 Speaker 1: wonder if you agree with me on this. Like I 179 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 1: do watch the NBA, I don't. I'm not fully involved, 180 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,959 Speaker 1: Like I have this whole process of getting ready for 181 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: the show, and I usually have games on the background. 182 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 1: I watch with half a half an eye open, and 183 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: I'm kind of not really listening to it. Per Sae. 184 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: Most of the broadcasters annoying, mean, But I have noticed, 185 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: like the the young generation of stars who are doing 186 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: things that are statistically wonderful, just don't move the needle. 187 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 1: The new kids on the block in the NBA, they 188 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: have the charisma of a dial tone. A shade. Jogis 189 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: Alexander is setting records for Oklahoma City. He's been around 190 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: for a few years, former Clipper by the way, of course, 191 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 1: that's where he learned how to play ball. And SGA 192 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: is doing these amazing things. He's challenging Wilton Chamberlain's records 193 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:23,200 Speaker 1: and whatnot, and no one cares, even Wemby the Parisian prodigy. 194 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: Most people, they don't really care. That's the vibe game. 195 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? I don't think I'm wrong. Giannis he's 196 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,400 Speaker 1: not the greatest sound bite. He still moves the needle 197 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 1: more than those guys. How much longer until the needle snaps? 198 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: That's the question on this, and the bill always comes 199 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: to it. I believe he's thirty one, I think. And 200 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: his superpower is that he's an athletic freak and he's 201 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: able to as we said, he's like a freight train 202 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: and all that stuff. And the body's starting to whisper 203 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: a little bit in recent years, and it's whispering no, 204 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 1: and you know, I don't want to hear that. And 205 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: then on the front off offices around the NBA are 206 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 1: screaming yes. And again it's like a Broadway star who 207 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:08,839 Speaker 1: conveniently gets laryngitis before that big matinee performance on the weekend. 208 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: You're like, what are you doing? Giannis is not a guarantee, however, 209 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,559 Speaker 1: it is a risk wrapped around the headliner, and you're 210 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 1: willing to make that risk. You know at some point 211 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 1: the lights are going to flicker, flicker, flicker, flick. You 212 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: know that's gonna happen all right? Now, final point to 213 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: the Book of King James. The Book of King James. 214 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: Am I going to sit here and rant about Lebron 215 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:35,839 Speaker 1: James crying? Lebron played terribly. Lakers lost by thirty. They 216 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,479 Speaker 1: got a thirty burger shoved down their throat by the cadavers. 217 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: How about that one? So Lebron returned to Cleveland his 218 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: yearly trip there his native land, and the Lakers were 219 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 1: vaporized by the calves. Now this comes amid chatter that 220 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 1: Lebron James, Lebron James will return to the Mistake by 221 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: the Lake to hold a victory lap next season. I 222 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 1: know that our friend Strip Club to like be very 223 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 1: excited about that. So when asked about the chatter in general, 224 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: the Lebron media clan says Lebron does not necessarily want 225 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: a retirement tour. The reporting indicating that Lebron is said 226 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 1: to be concerned. I love this. This is so good. 227 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: I pay attention to this next line. Then you can 228 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: go back to not paying attention. So Lebron is supposedly 229 00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 1: concerned that a retirement tour could bring some negative energy 230 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: if his body doesn't cooperate. I see he goes to 231 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: a city and there's one trip and everyone buys tickets 232 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: and he can't play, and he doesn't want to disappoint 233 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: his fans, you know, he doesn't want that, all right. 234 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: So the question this is so good are you vibing 235 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: with Lebron James supposedly being worried about a retirement tour 236 00:14:55,240 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: disappointing his fans? All right? So this is obviously not humility. 237 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 1: This is premium grade nin income poopery, is what this is, 238 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 1: premium grade nincome poopery. It's the itchy and scratchy show. Yeah, 239 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: it's the itchy and scratchy show. Lebron's got an itch 240 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: to scratch. It's called attention. That's the itch he wants 241 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: to scratch. He is the all time greatest attention whore. 242 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: He suffers from chronic attention horse syndrome wrapped in fake empathy. 243 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: That's it. And we've talked about it for years and 244 00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: years and years and years. Everyone knows it. And it's 245 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: the same guy who once sprayed his arm. He sprained 246 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: his arm Lebron years ago, patting himself on the back. 247 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: He was out for a couple of games, it was said. 248 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 1: And now we're supposed to believe that he has had 249 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,920 Speaker 1: this spiritual awakening and suddenly cares about the working stiff 250 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: who bought a ticket. So if you believe this, you're 251 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: a clod hopper, is what you are? Did you know 252 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: over the last seven seasons? I went and looked it 253 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: up because I'm a loser and I have no life. 254 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 1: Over the last seven seasons, Lebron James has missed how 255 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: many games on averages Lebron missed per year? I want 256 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 1: to take a guess on that matter. Lebron spends one 257 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: He brags about spending one point five million dollars on 258 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 1: his body. How many people are cashing in on that, right, 259 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: Like Lebron, W'll just pay these people and they don't 260 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: really have to do much. And what a great hustle, 261 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: What a great hustle that must be. Anyway, Lebron has 262 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: missed eighteen games a year. That's twenty two percent per season. 263 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: Lebron has missed a lot of those games that he 264 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: has missed are with very sketchy injuries, and yet he 265 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: still brags about spending you know, one point five million 266 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 1: on his body. And now the Lebron stands, the Lebron 267 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: sick of fans will say, well, Mall, you're just a hater. 268 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: Is an old player? You can't be. It can't be 269 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: a hordle Lebron. Old players play that many games? All right, Well, 270 00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 1: that would be true other than the fact that in 271 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: my lifetime doing talk radio, I covered a guy named 272 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan who played for the Washington win or it's 273 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 1: his final season and played all eighty two games. Did 274 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: you know that Jordan's last year in the NBA played 275 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: all eighty two games Michael Jordan played. I think it's 276 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: like fifteen years, I want to say, and I know 277 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: that he played every single game nine of those years, 278 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: every single game nine of the fifteen years. Now, let's 279 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 1: play a little game here. How many times Lebron's I 280 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: think he's in your twenty three Now, how many times 281 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 1: has Lebron James played every game the eighty two game season, 282 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: every game out of twenty some of those years there 283 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 1: were not eighty two games because of the pandemic or whatever. 284 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: Let's just let's say twenty of those years were full season. 285 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: So out of those twenty, how many did Lebron play 286 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:50,440 Speaker 1: all eighty two? You have seven times? That's option a 287 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: option B would be five times, Option C would be 288 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 1: one time, and option D would be no times. ABC 289 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 1: or D. You got your answer, all right, reveal answers. 290 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,239 Speaker 1: The answer would be option C. The option would be 291 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 1: Lebron one time, played all eighty two games. That's it. 292 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,719 Speaker 1: Wake up, people, wake up, come on, snap out of it. 293 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: So it's not like it's not about disappointing fans. It 294 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: would be one of the great stunners if Lebron did 295 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: not have a retirement tour. In my head, he goes 296 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: back to Cleveland next year. The Cavs are a better team. 297 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: Lakers aren't winning anything. It's just they're just worried about 298 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 1: Luca getting stats. And he'll get his stats. He'll lead 299 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: the NBA in scoring, and Laker fans go whoo, get 300 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: all excited about that. Whoopee damn doo, and they we're 301 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: not gonna win anything, just like the Mavericks didn't win anything. 302 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: But Luke w get his numbers and that's all that matters, 303 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: and so people will be happy about that. I'll hit 304 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: some circa shots and then Lebron can go to Cleveland 305 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: and they're not gonna win anything, but at least he'll 306 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,479 Speaker 1: go there they have a better chance. It's always been 307 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: about controlling the spotlight. It's always been that way. It 308 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: is the Ben Mahlor Show, as we control the spotlight 309 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: here in the Matt Radio box.

We 353 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: began here this hour with Giannis and the updated story 354 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 1: that he is looking to get out, looking for a trade. 355 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 1: Oh my, oh my, let's see here, what do we have? 356 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 1: Late night drug tester says there is a farewell tour 357 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 1: in the NBA, but mostly at the Crypto Arena. The 358 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: Lakers are saying farewell to millions of dollars spent on 359 00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 1: lebron and Bronni's contract. Howard, at the end of that 360 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: the Calves Lakers game, I saw a clip where Bronny 361 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: came in and he's like the mascot. It's like he 362 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 1: won a contest to play and he got to play 363 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 1: because the Lakers were losing by thirty and it's like, dude, 364 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 1: what's going on? Like that's a little embarrassing. I say 365 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,640 Speaker 1: a little bit, yeah, And I'm just saying, what else 366 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: we have? King Rory, who's in Wisconsin, says, trading Giannis 367 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,920 Speaker 1: mid season? We be a big mistake. If Joannis gets traded, 368 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 1: he should just wait until the offseason. Besides, if Jannis 369 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 1: waits long enough, he could be part of the inaugural 370 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: NBA Europe League. When that starts up, he can be 371 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,880 Speaker 1: closer to home. Let me tell you something, King Roy 372 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety four, David Stern, who was the old commissioner. 373 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: He's dead now, but David Stern had this whole vision 374 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: for NBA Europe. That is a long time ago. That's 375 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: we're going back a lot of lot of years there. 376 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 1: We're going back thirty plus years and this has been 377 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: something that's been talked about. I'll believe it when I 378 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: see it. Jill Yankee fan Jill from the Twin City says, 379 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: I love Lebron, but again, you're right, these players are 380 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:25,239 Speaker 1: mostly dullards, says Jill. Generally the way that it is. 381 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: Let's see here. Paige dan Fergduck says, did Loraina retire? 382 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 1: I haven't heard from her in a while. No, she's 383 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: all obvious. That's her story to tell. I'm not gonna 384 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 1: that's her business. But she's getting taken care of something. 385 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: But she'll be back at some point. Here, I'm not 386 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 1: sure when not a Burner writes in he says, what 387 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: days next week are you going to be doing the 388 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: show from Radio Row?

Go away. There's a Pasha 460 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: big fan. Yeah. I don't know if we're supposed to 461 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 1: talk about that, and I'll probably get a cease and 462 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,199 Speaker 1: desist from the company talking about the reality that the 463 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: people that call the show like hollering James. You know 464 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: how much we had to spend on the computer to 465 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: out the snores the way they do for James. There's 466 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: no human being that would sound like that. Like, there's 467 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,120 Speaker 1: just absolutely no way that would be real. And most 468 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: people understand that that like no Stradinas, that's the classic 469 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 1: fanboy Seahawks person, you know, fanboy Seahawks person, No Stradinas, 470 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: you know, classic Seahawk twelfth man, annoying character for the 471 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: show we needed. In fact, have you noticed we pumped 472 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,359 Speaker 1: up the amount of attention forer Dog was or not 473 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: Ferg dog, but no stre Deenas was getting leading into 474 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: the super Bowl because we got the script from the 475 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: NFL that the Seahawks were going to be in the 476 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: super Bowl. So we we reacted to that and we said, 477 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: let's make No Stredinas a bigger character on the show. 478 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: And so that's what we've done. And yeah, it's it's 479 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: all part of a master plan. It's it's all. It's 480 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: all part of a master plan. And that's how these 481 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,719 Speaker 1: guys come in. We should have and we screwed this up. 482 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: We should have paid Sean the Hood more money because 483 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 1: Sean we could have really used him in Spacoli to 484 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: break down the Steeler thing. But we didn't end up 485 00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: spending the money on that. That's a bad job by us, 486 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: So it's not perfect. Now. Meanwhile, I had I mentioned 487 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 1: I had the NBA on. I was flipping around and 488 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 1: I actually settled in because they had inside the NBA. 489 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: It was actually back. I thought they had retired. I 490 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 1: thought they had been fired. Charles Barkley, Ernie and Kenny 491 00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: and Shaq and all those guys, Well those guys aren't 492 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: working anymore. They worked four times the first half of 493 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: the NBA season, but they were on and it was. 494 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: It was wonderful. So I mentioned pick a winner. They 495 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: showed during one of the commercial breaks that Charles Barkley, 496 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: he claimed he had some kind of allergies, and they 497 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: showed him like right there on set. He had his 498 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,959 Speaker 1: glasses there, and he had the papers, and he had 499 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: a tissue and he became a picker. He was picked 500 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 1: a big snot rocket, big bugger right there. Was awesome, 501 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: It was great. I never enjoyed watching a man pick 502 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: a booger out of his nose more than I enjoyed 503 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,960 Speaker 1: Charles Barkley picking a booger out of his nose. I said, 504 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: that is so good. How entertaining is that? I could 505 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: literally watch Charles Barkley pick mucus flem out of his 506 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: mouth and nose and all that, and right there, I'm in. 507 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: I'm absolutely in on that, clearly. All right, let's see 508 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: what else do we have here? Super hustle rights and says, 509 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: why would you lie to the general public about our 510 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: beloved genies whereabouts? Like that? Slanderous? Well, we weren't able 511 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: to say anything. If you really are a super fan 512 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: of the Ben Mather Show, if you ever make it 513 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: to Southern California. There is a park bench which is 514 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: right near Dodger Stadium is his famous Swan Boat park 515 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 1: in la And if you go near the playground, which 516 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: is kind of on the it's the side furthest away 517 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,800 Speaker 1: from the one oh one Freeway. Now, I don't recommend 518 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: going there at night because you might get shanked, but 519 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: if you go there during the day, it's not that bad. 520 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 1: So you go over there and there's a park bench 521 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: which is dedicated the Genie in Medford. How about that? Yeah, 522 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: pretty cool, the legendary Genie in Medford. There's a little 523 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: bench there. You can check that out and great for 524 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: photos and super fans of the show have been there. 525 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: They have absolutely been there. A Doug in South Korea says, 526 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 1: I want to get some coin as well. Well, Doug, 527 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: you have to check. You have to apply and see 528 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: if you're qualified to become a character on the show. 529 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: Not everyone is able to be a character on the show. 530 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 1: There's only certain people. We have a limited budget and 531 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: we can't go over the budget or people freak out, 532 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 1: and so we've spent a lot of money on fer 533 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: Dog and these other characters. Alf and we in fact, 534 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if you noticed that we cut back 535 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,920 Speaker 1: on our friend from the Commonwealth and his dog Willis 536 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 1: because we just we ran out of money and so 537 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 1: we had to limit that. We also stopped paying truck 538 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 1: Stop Fungus as much, so he has not been as 539 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:07,959 Speaker 1: active because we just didn't have the money for it. 540 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 1: And these are decisions. They are business decisions. It's not personal. 541 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 1: These are all characters that we like and we just 542 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: can't afford everyone, and we have to limit certain people 543 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: when they call them. We had remember that period, we 544 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 1: decided to get a little younger. So we had characters 545 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 1: named Charlie. We had a Charlie from Dallas that was 546 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,680 Speaker 1: like did A. He was actually forty five years old, 547 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: but he pretended to be a kid. And then we 548 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: had a Charlie from Wisconsin. Charlie from Wisconsin was actually 549 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: sixty years old. He sounded like a college kid. And 550 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: so we were trying to get a younger demo and 551 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: we went back and forth between those two and it 552 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 1: was great.
