Speaker 1: Today our poll question is because I haven't hollied at
Speaker 1: y'all since Friday. Which recent NBA All Star trade or
Speaker 1: injury will have the biggest impact on the playoffs. Here's
Speaker 1: my question. Is it Boogie Cousins going down with that
Speaker 1: Achilles injury. Is it John Wall who now here we'll
Speaker 1: miss the next two months because of knee surgery. Or
Speaker 1: is it the trade that the Los Angeles Clippers made
Speaker 1: sending Blake Griffin to the Detroit Pistons for Tobias Harris
Speaker 1: Bradley and some draft picks or none of these things
Speaker 1: really matter, and you think you need to just fast
Speaker 1: forward to May and June, where it will be the
Speaker 1: Warriors and the Calves. Let me know, I'm intrigued. When
Speaker 1: we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle, though, We're gonna
Speaker 1: go through all the news and know what you need,
Speaker 1: and I'll recap where we are heading into the super
Speaker 1: Bowl because it is Super Bowl Week. I'm your boy,
Speaker 1: Dame Martinez Speeds, the fitting statistician, the stable genius here

Speaker 1: Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. And
Speaker 1: should boy Daane Martinez spitting statustician here on a Tuesday.
Speaker 1: We got a lot to catch you up on because
Speaker 1: I did not have a show the Cipher was holler
Speaker 1: and appy yesterday. But you're like, where are you speeds?
Speaker 1: I am right here. Don't get it twisted. The stable
Speaker 1: genius is in effect. Let's go around the league, give
Speaker 1: you the news and notes, but we gotta catch you
Speaker 1: up on a couple of days worth. Okay, give the
Speaker 1: most important thing. And I've been telling you about this
Speaker 1: for weeks now. Rob Gronkowski, Okay, back at a limited
Speaker 1: practice session because of the concussion. But I thought it
Speaker 1: was very telling. He has still yet to officially clear
Speaker 1: the concussion protocol, so that is what they're still waiting for. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he could do some light individual drills at practice, but
Speaker 1: he is still not taking on any contact. And here's
Speaker 1: another thing that I thought was very interesting. Okay, they
Speaker 1: had Super Bowl kickoff night where they were gonna be interviewed,
Speaker 1: a lot of cameras, bright lights, big noises. There was
Speaker 1: no Rob Gronkokowski at opening night. That is a tailtale
Speaker 1: sign that he's still may need the cold, dark, quiet room.
Speaker 1: Check this out. Today they said, uh, Blake Bortles had
Speaker 1: surgery on his throwing wrist, and that's this is something
Speaker 1: he has been managing all the way back since two
Speaker 1: thousand and six. I think this is very very interesting.
Speaker 1: It's almost like I have to change the narrative on
Speaker 1: Blake Bortles. It's almost like I have to apologize to
Speaker 1: a Bortle service. If this guy was just gritty and
Speaker 1: playing through something that ultimately required surgery on his throwing wrist,
Speaker 1: you gotta kind of give him a little bit of credit.
Speaker 1: But here's what I think is interesting. I think the
Speaker 1: timing of this surgery is very interesting. Okay, if he
Speaker 1: just has rich surgery, he's not gonna be back and
Speaker 1: ready for a few months at least. Right, we'll check
Speaker 1: this out. His fifth year option from the Jacksonville Jaguars
Speaker 1: is guaranteed if he is injured. If he is injured
Speaker 1: and can't be part of the roster by something like
Speaker 1: the third day of the new league year, which is
Speaker 1: on March sixteenth. So let me summarize this for you.
Speaker 1: If Blake Bortles is still injured and can't pass a
Speaker 1: physical on March sixteenth, this will trigger his fifth year
Speaker 1: option automatically. And I think this is very very interesting. Okay,
Speaker 1: so what does that mean they're going to do? Could
Speaker 1: this wind up killing the you know, Kirk cousins. The
Speaker 1: Alex Smith stuff right there. He also said already today
Speaker 1: the Jackson said they are quote unquote planning to keep Blake.
Speaker 1: So that is something to definitely keep an eye on.
Speaker 1: In the same vein over in Kansas City, Alex Smith
Speaker 1: says that he prefers to stay with the Kansas City Chiefs,
Speaker 1: and he doesn't know because obviously they drafted you know,
Speaker 1: um Patty Mahomes last year, and so he says after that,
Speaker 1: he then quote unquote prefers a playoff team. We will
Speaker 1: see if that is the case. I mean, he would
Speaker 1: be a great fit in a lot of places, whether
Speaker 1: that be Jacksonville, whether that be Minnesota or elsewhere. Let's
Speaker 1: keep it moving here. The Colts quarterback Andrew luck they
Speaker 1: say he is quote unquote very close to throwing again.
Speaker 1: You know who really does hope? So Josh McDaniels hope.
Speaker 1: So we'll see if that is the case as well.
Speaker 1: Keeping it in Indianapolis, though, I gotta catch you up here.
Speaker 1: The Colts maybe looking at se Kwon Barkley with the
Speaker 1: number three re overall pick, and I think that would
Speaker 1: be fitting. It worked with Ezekiel Elliott, it worked with
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette. You also got to realize Frank Gore is
Speaker 1: thirty five years old and a free agent, So it
Speaker 1: would be fitting if he is still available at Indie
Speaker 1: where they go out and grab him and you pair
Speaker 1: him along with Andrew Luck, along with Josh McDaniels as
Speaker 1: the new coach, and they may be able to scheme
Speaker 1: some stuff up in the a f C. South all
Speaker 1: Right also reports that the Broncos are looking to move
Speaker 1: on from their five time Pro Bowl cornerback a Keep
Speaker 1: to Lead. Here's the thing. They can't afford him. They
Speaker 1: can't have that much money tied up in all of
Speaker 1: their cornerbacks. Okay, you got him, you got Chris Harris,
Speaker 1: and you have Bradley Roby. Okay, this twenty eight million
Speaker 1: tied up in all of that, That is not going
Speaker 1: to be the case. And to keep to Leap would
Speaker 1: be making nineteen million over the next two years. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's Pro Football Focus rated thirteenth out of a hundred
Speaker 1: and one cornerbacks, but I still don't think that is
Speaker 1: going to matter. In other news here in Cleveland, left
Speaker 1: tackle and Hall of Famer Joe Thomas he is quote
Speaker 1: unquote non committal about his future Is he going to
Speaker 1: come back to Cleveland, Is he going to retire? Does
Speaker 1: he want to keep it moving. I'm gonna tell you something.
Speaker 1: I saw him in the quote unquote the car wash
Speaker 1: at ESPN doing interviews and stuff. I think they may
Speaker 1: have been testing the waters about his next step as well.
Speaker 1: Last piece of news that I will give you, Cardinals
Speaker 1: offensive coordinator Mike McCoy says that he now expects Larry
Speaker 1: Fitzgerald to come back and play for the Cardinals in
Speaker 1: two thousand and eighteen. Remember there's been a lot of
Speaker 1: talk about that. If I was Fitzy, I would try
Speaker 1: to move on elsewhere and proverbially win myself a title.
Speaker 1: Will see, though, McCoy says he doesn't expect Larry Fitzgerald
Speaker 1: to be back for the Cardinals in two thousand and eighteen.
Speaker 1: And you know who else may be coming back? And
Speaker 1: this is news Darren Sprowls. Remember you tore his a
Speaker 1: c l early in the season, and he had already
Speaker 1: come out and said that which is probably gonna be
Speaker 1: his last year, that he is retiring. That's not the
Speaker 1: way you want to go out, right, So he's now
Speaker 1: apparently leaning towards coming back. The only problem is Philadelphia
Speaker 1: Eagles made moves at the running back position. Remember they
Speaker 1: got Jedgi, They have le Garrett Blunt, they have one
Speaker 1: those small Wood, they have Barner, they have Clement. All
Speaker 1: of a sudden they have pump Free Even all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, it's a very crowded court running back room
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia. But keep our eye on that, all right. So,
Speaker 1: as you know, last night was opening night for the
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. Super Bowl fifty two had their opening night.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like what media day is. They all
Speaker 1: kind of come in, do their thing, and it's time
Speaker 1: to interview everybody. Right. As I said, the only thing
Speaker 1: that I think is actually newsworthy about all this is
Speaker 1: that Rob Gronkowski was absent for this event. Too many
Speaker 1: bright lights, too many noises. I kind of think that
Speaker 1: all the pageant tree that happens on Sunday will also
Speaker 1: be the same kind of um, you know, shock to
Speaker 1: the nervous system. So keep an eye on that. Here's
Speaker 1: the other thing. Tom Brady once again wearing his gloves.
Speaker 1: There were reports that he had twelve stitches removed from
Speaker 1: his hand, from his throwing hand. He's wearing the gloves.
Speaker 1: You're obviously not gonna get any information, So we're left
Speaker 1: all week to try to like look for signs. But
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, he looked just fine in the
Speaker 1: n FC Championship game, so I'm sure Brady will be fine.
Speaker 1: Interesting of note to me, Bill Belichick was given Doug
Speaker 1: Peterson some love. Um here's his quote about you know,
Speaker 1: the Eagles and Doug Peterson. He said, well, they are
Speaker 1: quote unquote, very aggressive, well balanced, use a lot of personnel,
Speaker 1: all the receivers, all the tight ends, all the backs.
Speaker 1: He's done a great job this being about Peterson, and
Speaker 1: it's a good offense. And they've got good players, they're
Speaker 1: well coached, they do a great job calling plays. In essence,
Speaker 1: he's giving you absolutely squaw doo. Okay, you don't want
Speaker 1: any reason to be up on a bulletin board, and
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick is great at that. So whenhen we see
Speaker 1: media day, we're not gonna hear more from Bill Belichick.
Speaker 1: Here's what I thought was interesting on the Philly side.
Speaker 1: And there's a couple. Here's here's where I think there's
Speaker 1: actually more things. One, the Eagles were boot as they
Speaker 1: entered Okay, remember it is in Minnesota. They just beat Minnesota,
Speaker 1: in the NFC Championship Game. So Minnesota residents may not
Speaker 1: be all too excited to see the Philadelphia Eagles. I
Speaker 1: think that will continue all week long. I think the
Speaker 1: crowd will not be in support of the Eagles. Okay,
Speaker 1: and then you know, because the Eagles not only beat them,
Speaker 1: but then they did the big old skull chant, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of mocking the Vikings. I can see Vikings fans,
Speaker 1: you know, feeling some kind of way about this. Here's
Speaker 1: another thing that I thought was just interesting. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm reading the tea leaves and all right, a lot
Speaker 1: of the Philadelphia Eagles players were on their phones the
Speaker 1: whole time. Okay, like good millennials are. But here's the thing.
Speaker 1: Act like you've been there before, like the Patriots have.
Speaker 1: This is old hat for the Patriots. Okay, they know
Speaker 1: about getting the ticket request, they know about the practice schedule,
Speaker 1: they know about media day. The Eagles were kind of
Speaker 1: like um, bright eyed, you know, wide eyed, and the
Speaker 1: impressed by all of this. So we have a clear
Speaker 1: experience advantage for New England. I think that is something
Speaker 1: to keep an eye on. I don't know how meaningful
Speaker 1: it is, but it does look like the Eagles are
Speaker 1: kind of stars struck by being at the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: You know that is not the case with the New
Speaker 1: England Patriots. Here's the other thing I thought was interesting.
Speaker 1: Fletcher Cox said or admitted that he has never seen
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl. That's kind of crazy, and it didn't
Speaker 1: unfair of us to assume that just because you're a
Speaker 1: football player, that means you're a football fan and that
Speaker 1: you watch football as much as we do here with
Speaker 1: all the people who listen to the Fantasy Sports Radio Network.
Speaker 1: I think that is interesting. Fletcher Cox never seen a
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. And then there was obviously some silly stuff,
Speaker 1: and that is going to happen. You got reporters that
Speaker 1: are dressed like the dogs because of all the dog
Speaker 1: masks with the Eagles. You had a reporter addressed like
Speaker 1: the Shark from like Katy Perry's Left Shark and Right Shark.
Speaker 1: I thought that was interesting. But here's what I thought
Speaker 1: was the most interesting. Like guest Juliet's you know, Eagles
Speaker 1: tight end Zach Arts. It hurts when I p my man.
Speaker 1: His wife in the name Julie Arts. She is on
Speaker 1: the U S women's national soccer team. Okay, so she's
Speaker 1: won a World Cup. They were saying that they have
Speaker 1: to kind of compete about who gets the most shine
Speaker 1: in the house, right, But Juilliards was given a kind
Speaker 1: of credential to be there at media day, and she
Speaker 1: wound up interviewing her husband, zach Ertz, and she asked
Speaker 1: her husband, what is the best thing that your wife cooks?
Speaker 1: And this is what I thought was interesting. You know
Speaker 1: his response, tacos. Yeah, I mean, you got to stay safe.
Speaker 1: They're right, you gotta love the tacos. And I thought
Speaker 1: that was very interesting. So there are some of your
Speaker 1: highlights from both fifty two opening night, which took place
Speaker 1: throughout the rest of the week. Um, we're gonna be
Speaker 1: talking about this big game, Okay, We're gonna do everything
Speaker 1: from my confidence ranks of the different units, and we've
Speaker 1: done that before in the past. I'm gonna go hard
Speaker 1: later on in the week. I think on Thursday's show,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do all sorts of prop bets, okay, all
Speaker 1: fun stuff, the Gatorade colors, all sorts of stuff about
Speaker 1: Pink and Sin timber Lake. We'll be doing the anthem
Speaker 1: and the halftime show, and then you know, I gotta
Speaker 1: officially make my pick against the kids at the end
Speaker 1: of the week, so we'll definitely get into that. But
Speaker 1: when we come back on the Fantasy Freestyle, we are
Speaker 1: joined by my guy, the basketball correspondent and love doctor.
Speaker 1: For the Fantasy Freestyle. It's my boy, Don Burns. It'll
Speaker 1: be a reunion right after this on the Fantasy Freestyle
Speaker 1: on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. Hey there, everybody,

Speaker 1: to the Fantasy Freestyle. You know what it is. It
Speaker 1: should boy Day Martinez Speeds, the spitting statistician, the stable genius,
Speaker 1: holding you down on a Tuesday and boyd, who I
Speaker 1: have a treat for y'all. If you've been part of
Speaker 1: the Status over Beat site for for a while, then
Speaker 1: you definitely know my next guest. Back in the day,
Speaker 1: Back in the day, it was not only my man
Speaker 1: the Manimal Chris Bovona that was making it so hot
Speaker 1: that we sweat steam. We also have some other producers
Speaker 1: as well, and this guy was my basketball correspondent and
Speaker 1: the love doctor of the Fantasy Freestyle. It's my man
Speaker 1: who's you know all the way down in mornings now?
Speaker 1: He wakes up real early every morning. It's my man
Speaker 1: Don Burns day, Donni. How you doing? Brother man? What's
Speaker 1: going on? Dan? I really love a Vintas every time
Speaker 1: I come on your chef. I missed him a lot too.
Speaker 1: How is it? Uh? How is it? Waking up early?
Speaker 1: By the way, there, I know you. I know you
Speaker 1: didn't doin it early, hooking everybody up on the Rhodo
Speaker 1: experts in the morning and the frenzy and BFFs making
Speaker 1: everybody looking sound good. How's that working out? It's true
Speaker 1: that I do miss the night shift, though I do
Speaker 1: miss our basketball, but that's why I'm here today, absolutely,
Speaker 1: So let's dive into this and and here's to be
Speaker 1: To be honest, don I was trying to get you
Speaker 1: on the show and talk because I knew, like, hey,
Speaker 1: we got some stories going on. At first, I wanted
Speaker 1: to talk to you about things like Kawuai Leonard and
Speaker 1: the Spurs, things like Kevin Love and the Calves. Right,
Speaker 1: But then literally over the last weekend, not one, not
Speaker 1: to but three legit all stars had major things happened
Speaker 1: to them. So I want to get your take on
Speaker 1: all of them. Can we start first with down there
Speaker 1: in New Orleans and Boogie Cousins tears the Achilles and
Speaker 1: he is out for the rest of the season. The
Speaker 1: problem to me is that, I mean, he was on
Speaker 1: the precipice of getting a max deal as a free agent,
Speaker 1: and the New Orleans Pelicans were also trying to side
Speaker 1: what do they do with this twin tower combo. They
Speaker 1: were entertaining everything from trading Boogie maybe even trading a
Speaker 1: d to on the flip side, trying to keep these
Speaker 1: guys and adding like an elite wing player because they
Speaker 1: are a tough matchup for anybody in the NBA. How
Speaker 1: do the Pelicans play this? Now? When Bookie goes down. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so arguably probably the most offensively gifted center in the league,
Speaker 1: as per almost every player in the league. Um, and
Speaker 1: you know a lot of things circulating with his his personality,
Speaker 1: very fiery guy, that this would be bad. But the
Speaker 1: next morning, in fact, he was there in film, you know,
Speaker 1: watching film taking that leadership role exactly. And he has
Speaker 1: a very very good relationship with Rondo, which not many halfs,
Speaker 1: which is not easy to do. Yeah, it's not easy
Speaker 1: at all. And he's one of the veterans in the
Speaker 1: league that do know a lot about the league. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, another guy with the fiery personality and you know,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hot take on this. He will be a Pelican.
Speaker 1: The only problem is that contract now and first center
Speaker 1: that a Pilles tare. That's a big deal for someone
Speaker 1: that size running on that injury. That's a year on
Speaker 1: its own in terms of coming back. It might be
Speaker 1: a little bit more for him. Yeah. So so that's
Speaker 1: the thing, Like you said, you think you'll stay in
Speaker 1: New Orleans or be with the Pelicans next year. Do
Speaker 1: you see whether it's the Pelicans or any other team
Speaker 1: committing to that max investment in him? Like you just said,
Speaker 1: for a big man coming off the Achilles injury. I don't.
Speaker 1: And if the Pelicans had to choose, unfortunately, it would
Speaker 1: still be to keep Anthony Davis over DeMarcus Cousins, not
Speaker 1: only for this injury, but just in general. You can,
Speaker 1: you know, you can build the team more around Anthony Davis.
Speaker 1: I think it's more gifted all around. But you know,
Speaker 1: DeMarcus Cousins as that offensive fire to it. But I
Speaker 1: really do think DeMarcus Cousins will stay there. You know,
Speaker 1: people have entertained him going to the Lakers on all
Speaker 1: sorts of places, but people don't know the contract deal,
Speaker 1: and I don't think any of these coaches or GM
Speaker 1: will want to take that on. All right, fair enough,
Speaker 1: let's talk about another All Star who went down over
Speaker 1: the weekend. It looks like your boy, John Wall is
Speaker 1: going to have knee surgery. It looks like he's gonna
Speaker 1: miss six weeks or about two months now done. I
Speaker 1: know that you have been high on this Washington Wizards team.
Speaker 1: What does this mean? I mean Wall will be back
Speaker 1: by the end of the regular season, and the Wizards
Speaker 1: probably can hang in the playoffs because of Bradley Beale
Speaker 1: and my guy who I think is ascending, and that's
Speaker 1: Otto Porter, the former Georgetown Hoya. What do you think
Speaker 1: this does to the Wizards? Their playoff hopes and kind
Speaker 1: of just the flow of their offense. Are they still
Speaker 1: a threat in the East to you? Yeah? Well, if
Speaker 1: you remember my hot take from a few months ago,
Speaker 1: I did, in fact, unfortunately have the Wizards? Did you
Speaker 1: know as I and I knew you were gonna bring
Speaker 1: me off for that, which is fine, you know, I'm
Speaker 1: a man of my worry. I'll take that l there. Um. However,
Speaker 1: as I watched the Wizard is throughout the season their
Speaker 1: biggest problem with their bench other than Kelly Ubre and
Speaker 1: you can get maybe make an argument from Mike Scott,
Speaker 1: who some people don't even know. I don't think anyone
Speaker 1: could have told you John Wolves backups until today, which
Speaker 1: is a big problem. So does that because they're gonna
Speaker 1: get some chance, they're gonna get some minutes, They're gonna
Speaker 1: get some opportunity, thus even making them kind of better
Speaker 1: when Wall comes back because they have that experience under
Speaker 1: their belt. I would say yes, but Tim Fraser has
Speaker 1: gotten play before he's done. Okay, but this is a
Speaker 1: struggling with his team that's fighting for a sixth place
Speaker 1: spot in the playoffs right now as it is, So
Speaker 1: I don't think that would be necessarily good thing. But
Speaker 1: here's the thing, Kelly Ubre, you know, Bradley Bill, they're
Speaker 1: guys that need John Walt to make their own offense.
Speaker 1: I mean, Bradley Bill come up to the trible and whatnot.
Speaker 1: But John will Average is gonna stick a game that's
Speaker 1: a huge blow of that team. Yeah. Absolutely, So we'll
Speaker 1: see as the Wizards try to kind of stay afloat
Speaker 1: at least for the next couple of months. And then
Speaker 1: obviously don the The big move that happened yesterday was
Speaker 1: Blake Griffin getting traded from the Clippers to the Detroit
Speaker 1: Pistons for Tobias Harris. The was Avery Bradley and some
Speaker 1: other picks and stuff. Let's first talk about this on
Speaker 1: the Piston side. Um, when you have you know, you
Speaker 1: have Drummond, Now you have Griffin as well. It looks
Speaker 1: like you're gonna wind up having like Ish Smith. At
Speaker 1: the point, are the Detroit uh, the Detroit Pistons like
Speaker 1: a legitimate, say like four seed in the East. Now, well,
Speaker 1: they could definitely push their way up in the playoffs. Um,
Speaker 1: in terms of cheating wise, I think they will make
Speaker 1: the playoffs. Here's the only thing. Blake Grifton is a
Speaker 1: fantastic player, averaging over twenty. He gets the sis now
Speaker 1: he edited at three point shooting. The only thing is
Speaker 1: is durability. That's always been his question. He's only played
Speaker 1: sixty five or less games each season, So you don't
Speaker 1: want that from your star player. You have Andre drumming there.
Speaker 1: It would be perfect if you could play a full season,
Speaker 1: because that would be great for an Eastern conference that
Speaker 1: sometimes struggles to have bar power. Um. But you know,
Speaker 1: until Reggie Jackson gets back, and you know, until you
Speaker 1: can see if Blake Griffin can stay healthy for full season,
Speaker 1: you know it's still Cleveland's Eastern Conference. Yeah. Absolutely, I
Speaker 1: mean I kind of still like Boston as well. But
Speaker 1: one of the guys don that I talked about with
Speaker 1: my man, the Tony Sankada every day almost on Line
Speaker 1: Up Block live from six to seven pm Eastern time,
Speaker 1: right here in the Fantasy Sports Radio Network is Lou Williams. Okay, boy,
Speaker 1: do I love me some Lou Williams. But the question
Speaker 1: is for you, because I don't think the Clippers are done. Okay,
Speaker 1: I think they're burning it all down. I think DeAndre
Speaker 1: Jordan's goes in the next week and a half, and
Speaker 1: I think Lou Williams goes as well. What is the
Speaker 1: market life for these guys? What do you um? What
Speaker 1: do you see in the future for Jordan's and Lou.
Speaker 1: I am so glad you said that, because I was
Speaker 1: all morning about where Lou Williams could go, and my
Speaker 1: favorite two spots were the Wizards and the Heat. Interesting,
Speaker 1: here's the thing I thought I talked to you about
Speaker 1: the Wizards. You know, five minutes ago they don't have
Speaker 1: a bench. Sweet Low would be one of the greatest
Speaker 1: additions to that team, especially now. Yeah, but there's only
Speaker 1: one doll. Wouldn't Bradley Beale get piste off? You know?
Speaker 1: Sweet Lou makes his shots. I mean, as a coach,
Speaker 1: you don't want to have them in at the same time.
Speaker 1: But I think at this time, when you're holding on
Speaker 1: your ties were a sixth place spot in the playoffs,
Speaker 1: you need a player like that. You need dynamics, you
Speaker 1: need a player like that. All right, let me ask
Speaker 1: you this before we go to break. Donnie, Hey, hey,
Speaker 1: don If we run long here. Would you be able
Speaker 1: to join us for a little bit in the next
Speaker 1: segment because I got some other things I want to
Speaker 1: ask you about. Of course, all right, but here's when
Speaker 1: let me get you out of here on this segment
Speaker 1: of Fantasy Freestyle for on this one. What's up with
Speaker 1: the refs and the players right now? It looks like
Speaker 1: between all the fighting and these injections, you know, Kevin
Speaker 1: Durant getting ejected and then you know, it seems like
Speaker 1: they're is a running kind of narrative this year. I
Speaker 1: heard that they're going to kind of like huddle over
Speaker 1: all Star break and you know, go back and meet
Speaker 1: with all the teams get trained in conflict resolution. What
Speaker 1: is going on in the NBA right now between between
Speaker 1: kind of just uh, the relationship with the players and
Speaker 1: the refs, it seems strained. What's going on? You know,
Speaker 1: I know we're coming up on the break and I'm
Speaker 1: just gonna leave it at this before we come back.
Speaker 1: The refs have to rest every player the same way. Now,
Speaker 1: they're in a pickle where they're trying to make everything even.
Speaker 1: So I know we've covered that on the on the
Speaker 1: other side of this, but that is one of the
Speaker 1: main reasons. It's not the biggest one. Now, let's get
Speaker 1: into it. We've still got a couple of minutes before
Speaker 1: we go to break real quick. And I hear you.
Speaker 1: You know, we've always talked about this idea of like
Speaker 1: the star treatment, you know, and there was always like
Speaker 1: the Jordan's rules and all this stuff, right, and I
Speaker 1: understand that, you know, Lebron doesn't get called the same
Speaker 1: way as the bench players do. But I mean, you know,
Speaker 1: we're seeing more and more like players are firing back
Speaker 1: get refs. It's back and forth, and it's noticeable to
Speaker 1: the public. Yeah, and you know, kind of the spokespersons
Speaker 1: for some of those players that aren't that star power
Speaker 1: secdentity of the nets. He came out, you know, it
Speaker 1: was very vocal about some of these rests not giving
Speaker 1: him calls. And the game literally after he had that,
Speaker 1: you know, that conversation with the media. I called the
Speaker 1: end of the game. That should have been a foul.
Speaker 1: But everyone knows that should have been a foul. So
Speaker 1: you know they're really right now, all right, fair enough, Hey,
Speaker 1: here's what we're gonna do, okay, because yes, you know,
Speaker 1: we do have to pay some bills. Here on the
Speaker 1: Fantasy Sports Radio Network. But what we're gonna do, Donn
Speaker 1: is we're gonna keep you if we can, because there
Speaker 1: are a lot of other things I want to get
Speaker 1: into with my man, the Basketball Correspondent and the Love Doctor,
Speaker 1: Donnie Burns. It's a reunion here on the Fantasy Freestyle.
Speaker 1: Don I gotta ask you about what quality of basketball
Speaker 1: is being played in Lithuania. I want to ask you
Speaker 1: also about youth sports in general, because I know you
Speaker 1: love the kids. So I heard something about youth sports
Speaker 1: and I wanted to get your take on that. And
Speaker 1: then because I know and you know that I know
Speaker 1: that you love the kids and Speeds loves the kids,
Speaker 1: we gotta revive we're doing Speeds versus the kids again
Speaker 1: picking the playoffs. But we have some controversy this year
Speaker 1: around it, don So I'm gonna get you all caught
Speaker 1: up and then I gotta get your insight on it.
Speaker 1: Once again, Speeds is actually beating the kids picking the
Speaker 1: playoffs in the NFL. So we got a lot of
Speaker 1: fun to get to with my man, the Basketball Correspondent
Speaker 1: and Love Doctor on the Fantasy Freestyle. When we come back,
Speaker 1: we put the fun and functional Sports Radio with my man.
Speaker 1: Don you know what it is. It's Dave Martinez Speeds,

Speaker 1: Radio Network. And we'll be back more fun with Donny

Speaker 1: here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. It's your boy
Speaker 1: day Martinez ps, the spitting statistician holding you down on
Speaker 1: a Tuesday, and I gotta treat for the stats over
Speaker 1: beat Cipher. If you've been a fan up the Fantasy
Speaker 1: Freestyle for a while, then you know I used to
Speaker 1: be riding with my man, the basketball corresponding and love
Speaker 1: doctor of the Fantasy Freestyle, and that's my man Donnie Earns.
Speaker 1: We just went across the league. We talked about, you know,
Speaker 1: Don Wall's injury, the Blake Griffin trade. We also talked
Speaker 1: about Boogie Cousins and the money that he may have
Speaker 1: just lost by that Achilles injury. But there's so many
Speaker 1: other things I want to ask my man Don Burns about,
Speaker 1: because don we used to always talk about the Big
Speaker 1: Baller brand back in the day. You know, LaVar has
Speaker 1: never lost. And here's my question. At the beginning of
Speaker 1: the college basketball season, I thought it was crazy how
Speaker 1: the kid, you know, it was called stealing out there
Speaker 1: in the Far East. But then LaVar takes his sons
Speaker 1: out of school and takes them to go play in Lithuania. Now,
Speaker 1: part of me thinks that this is je LaVar trying
Speaker 1: to keep his family in the constant news cycle so
Speaker 1: he can get those tweets on those follows and far
Speaker 1: sales of the shoes. But part of me thinks he's
Speaker 1: kind of crazy like a fox because he gets to
Speaker 1: play against men, right, or his sons do at least,
Speaker 1: and they don't have to deal with the NC double
Speaker 1: A and any of their amateurism rights. My question though,
Speaker 1: I saw that there were some games where the le
Speaker 1: Angelo and LaMelo they go for like sixty points combined
Speaker 1: or eighty points combined. And there's other games when they're
Speaker 1: getting only three minutes and they ain't doing jack. What
Speaker 1: is the level of competition in there in Lithuania? Are
Speaker 1: they doing both like playing high school kids and playing
Speaker 1: men who are pros? What's going on here? Helping me out?
Speaker 1: Don Yeah, So, you know, I've always been an advocate.
Speaker 1: You could say you have. Um, you know, people say
Speaker 1: he's crazy, he's crazy, but you know, at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, he's still a father, and he's a
Speaker 1: father in you know, the limelight, like people watch what
Speaker 1: he's doing. You can't really tell him what to do,
Speaker 1: Like there's no rule book for how you define what
Speaker 1: your kids are gonna do. But you know he's been
Speaker 1: pushing the envelope lately. Um. But in terms of the
Speaker 1: kids in Lithuania, you are correct. Two of those games
Speaker 1: they were actually playing kids that were LaMelo stage really okay,
Speaker 1: And those are the games when they combined for sixty
Speaker 1: eight or whatever it was, right exactly. And the other
Speaker 1: two games, uh, those were against like professional grown men teams.
Speaker 1: So that was actually correct. So let me ask you this, though,
Speaker 1: don But still do you think it's still kind of
Speaker 1: like a good look to try to get this reps try?
Speaker 1: I remember Brandon Jennings way I went out across in
Speaker 1: Europe when he didn't want to, um, you know, when
Speaker 1: he wanted to be one and done and kind of couldn't. Like,
Speaker 1: there's some validity to try to play against men, uh,
Speaker 1: to toughen you up for by the time you are
Speaker 1: actually draftable here back in the States. No, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: there are definitely a lot of benefits to doing that.
Speaker 1: But I do feel like, like I said, I love LaVar,
Speaker 1: but I feel like they're doing it the wrong way.
Speaker 1: The Jennings and all those guys, they went into a
Speaker 1: different culture that they went by themselves. Um, they weren't
Speaker 1: in the spotlight, like they're still under daddy's umbrella. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's almost like a movie, like they're filming a movie.
Speaker 1: And you know, I think they're going about that aspect
Speaker 1: the wrong way. But I'll never say a bad thing
Speaker 1: about what he decides for his kids. But I just
Speaker 1: think in terms of you know, what they're doing, the
Speaker 1: dagging involved coaching. Now coaching of that being him sponsoring
Speaker 1: some of those games that were played against the younger kids.
Speaker 1: It's not really a good look, especially for one of
Speaker 1: his sons that wasn't going to be in the NBA
Speaker 1: in le Angelo. So yeah, no, absolutely. Now you mentioned
Speaker 1: there's really no one who can tell LaVar Ball what
Speaker 1: to do. One person who should be able to, at
Speaker 1: least in certain situations with it, the kids are the referees.
Speaker 1: But don one of the things I wanted to bring
Speaker 1: you in for us because I know you coach youth
Speaker 1: basketball yourself. I came across the story recently that there
Speaker 1: has been a precipitous drop in the amount of refs
Speaker 1: who do youth sports, things like an aging workforce of
Speaker 1: refs that you know, they can't kind of keep up
Speaker 1: with the game anymore, and there's real low retention rates,
Speaker 1: whether it be a a you or high school games
Speaker 1: and other you know, kind of sand lot baseball things
Speaker 1: like that, because they just don't want to deal with
Speaker 1: parents like LaVar Ball other people dreaming at them. And
Speaker 1: now here's the thing. It's it's almost like there's so
Speaker 1: many uh, non academic events, shall we say, right that
Speaker 1: it's just not high schools. There's a AU, There's there's
Speaker 1: just so many there's so many games out there, and
Speaker 1: and that's just kind of like not worth it for
Speaker 1: the ref. I know you do youth sports as well.
Speaker 1: Have you seen this a kind of decline in the
Speaker 1: number or the quality of refs? And quite frankly, would
Speaker 1: would do you think it's worth it? Like? Would you
Speaker 1: be a ref these days? Getting paid peanuts and having
Speaker 1: a deal with all the grief we think parents come
Speaker 1: out of the stands in football games and try to
Speaker 1: fight refs. What do you think it's like for a
Speaker 1: ref and youth sports these days? Yes, so, Dana, I've
Speaker 1: been through all the avenues, both playing and coaching, and
Speaker 1: I actually do at my ref lice um. But here's
Speaker 1: the thing, Dan, I could tell you from experience both
Speaker 1: playing and coaching in an AU circuit, the parents in
Speaker 1: that league are ten times worse than any of our
Speaker 1: ball stunt you Really, I've seen parents come on to
Speaker 1: the court grab people's children like it is. It is
Speaker 1: by far the worst I've ever seen up to this point.
Speaker 1: You have to think this way, some of these people
Speaker 1: are doing this for their livelason to you know, getting
Speaker 1: noticed by colleges. They need these scholarships for the money, whatever,
Speaker 1: whatever the reason may be. And Dane, I'll tell you,
Speaker 1: I've never seen some of the craziest things I've ever
Speaker 1: seen are AU basketball. That's absolutely crazy. It should actually
Speaker 1: always be about the kids. But when you put the
Speaker 1: pressure of scholarships and all that on it, parents and
Speaker 1: everyone else involved, coaches can all get a little bit crazy.
Speaker 1: But I know that's not you, Donnie Burns. I know
Speaker 1: you do it for all the right reason. Speaking of
Speaker 1: the kids, don do you remember last year where you
Speaker 1: and I we both picked all the playoff games against
Speaker 1: the kids and we had to see and there were
Speaker 1: some kids out there that did work. Well. We're doing
Speaker 1: it again, don but we need I need your help
Speaker 1: because we have some controversy. Okay, so far, I'm six
Speaker 1: and three. So it was our boy, the analyst, Chris Ventra,
Speaker 1: who does our YouTube, you know, the video production, right,
Speaker 1: But we have some of the kids. The kids haven't
Speaker 1: been consistent this year. Okay, so I'm at six and three.
Speaker 1: We've got a group of kids that are at four
Speaker 1: and two. Okay, but then we also have one kid
Speaker 1: who was not involved in the first couple of rounds,
Speaker 1: only made picks for the a f C and NFC
Speaker 1: championship game. But he went to a Oh okay, and
Speaker 1: this was Sammy. You may remember him. He was only
Speaker 1: like fourteen months old last year, grumbling with the Lions
Speaker 1: and whatnot. He is two and oh? Is that better
Speaker 1: than my six and three record or another kids four
Speaker 1: and two record? I mean he's undefeated, but he hasn't
Speaker 1: risked much. Would you rather be two and oh? Would
Speaker 1: you rather be six and three? Who's technically leading Speeds
Speaker 1: verse the kids? Right now? Don Well, you're technically I
Speaker 1: wouldn't even say you're technically you are leading in bolth categories. Um,
Speaker 1: if you remember from last year, we had some esque
Speaker 1: yeah performances, we did some of them. You know, we
Speaker 1: weren't really sure. You know, you guess more games and
Speaker 1: you also got more right, so you think it's about
Speaker 1: a number of wins. Okay, So then if that is
Speaker 1: the case, then Speeds is looking good to once again
Speaker 1: win Speeds versus the kids because it's not none of
Speaker 1: this winning percentage kind of stuff. And last, I'll get
Speaker 1: you out of here on this. Don I don't know
Speaker 1: if you know, but you are now joining a show
Speaker 1: that is a finalist for Best Radio Show. As for
Speaker 1: the F s w A, what do you think about that?
Speaker 1: We came far in one night. Congratulations and I love that.
Speaker 1: Actually that morning when I texted you extreme Absolutely I
Speaker 1: appreciate it. But listen, as we change the basketball, especially
Speaker 1: now between this and the start of baseball, we're gonna
Speaker 1: need you to come back on a couple of times. Alright,
Speaker 1: So can we holler at you maybe after the trading
Speaker 1: deadline for the stretch run to get everything we know?
Speaker 1: Because you are the basketball correspondent and love doctor, can
Speaker 1: we get you back? All right? Sounds good? Thanks for
Speaker 1: spending a couple of minutes with us, Don, I hope
Speaker 1: the love doctor ing is going well. Real quick, one word,
Speaker 1: who do you got to win? Patriots or Eagles? Alright?
Speaker 1: Fair enough, I'll begrudge Lee, I think yeah, but grudgingly
Speaker 1: I think I agree with you. Thanks for spending a
Speaker 1: couple of minutes with us, Don, I'll talk to you
Speaker 1: real soon we go that way. You know what it is, um,
Speaker 1: So there you have it, Donnie Burns, my man, the
Speaker 1: love of doctor and basketball corresponded. But now, honestly, when
Speaker 1: we put the Fun and Functional Sports Radio. We are
Speaker 1: going to switch from a former producer of mine to
Speaker 1: my current producer. We're talking to the Manimal here, Chris Bavone.
Speaker 1: Because Manimal, you know, Don Burns is into basketball. My guy,
Speaker 1: the Manimal is into hockey. Okay, And I was seeing
Speaker 1: a story that's going on in hockey that I wanted
Speaker 1: to get your take on. All right, Uma, are you
Speaker 1: familiar with this expansion franchise, the Vegas Golden Knights. I'm
Speaker 1: sure he is. I'm sure he is. Well, here's what
Speaker 1: we're gonna do. We're going to get to the commercial
Speaker 1: break in a hot second, but we're gonna get after
Speaker 1: what's called the Vegas flu. We're gonna find out what
Speaker 1: are the reasons why these Vegas Golden Knights have the
Speaker 1: best home record in all of the NHL. Is it
Speaker 1: because you know, they're actually a good squad, or is
Speaker 1: it because people are you know, doing a little bit
Speaker 1: too much partying the night before? We used to say
Speaker 1: saying when people would have noon games in New York,
Speaker 1: are they going out a little bit too much or not?
Speaker 1: We're taking it all the way to hockey with this,
Speaker 1: and the last thing I want to say before we
Speaker 1: go to the break right here on the Fantasy Freestyle
Speaker 1: on the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. We just
Speaker 1: had our boy Donnie Burns in there chopping it up,
Speaker 1: talking a little bit about basketball. When it comes to
Speaker 1: the Blake Griffin trade, talking about the John Wall being out,
Speaker 1: we're talking about Boogie Cousins being out as well. We
Speaker 1: gotta poll question up on Twitter. Thanks to everybody as
Speaker 1: always for joining the stats overbeat Cipher. The question is
Speaker 1: very simple. Which one of these recent events to an
Speaker 1: All Star is the most impactful for the playoffs moving forward?
Speaker 1: Is it the Boogie Cousins injury despite the millions and
Speaker 1: millions of dollars that he may in fact lose in
Speaker 1: the off season. Is it the surgery for John Wall.
Speaker 1: You heard Donnie Burns say that this may give the
Speaker 1: bench a little of an opportunity that could help them
Speaker 1: in the Eastern Conference playoffs. Or is it this Blake
Speaker 1: Griffin trade going from l A to Detroit. I don't
Speaker 1: think the Clippers are done. I think DeAndre Jordan's peace.
Speaker 1: I think Lou Williams see you. We're gonna find out
Speaker 1: where they go in the next week, week and a half.
Speaker 1: And we'll definitely keep you covered on that, like white
Speaker 1: on rights. Right now, though, thirty three per cent of you,
Speaker 1: and thanks to the hundreds of people that have voted
Speaker 1: in the last couple of hours, three percent of you
Speaker 1: think that it is Boogie Cousins. In fact, listen, the
Speaker 1: Pelicans were at a cross worlds. They were gonna either
Speaker 1: try and trade Cousins. They was talking about moving a
Speaker 1: d There was even talks about them bringing a good
Speaker 1: third wing player on. They're kind of like the Minnesota
Speaker 1: Vikings now, not even knowing what assets they have as
Speaker 1: they go into the off season. We'll chop it up
Speaker 1: about all that and tie a nice neat little bow
Speaker 1: on this episode of the Fantasy Freestyle, is your boy?
Speaker 1: Dame Martinez Speeds, the spitting statistician, the stable genius of
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, will come on right back
Speaker 1: after this Fantasy pre Style. A lot of the Philadelphia
Speaker 1: Eagles players were on their phones the whole time, like
Speaker 1: good millennials are. But here's the thing. Act like you've
Speaker 1: been there before, like the Patriots have. Do they know
Speaker 1: about getting the ticket request, they know about the practice schedule,
Speaker 1: they know about media day? The Eagles were kind of
Speaker 1: like bright Eye. I don't know how meaningful it is,
Speaker 1: but it does look like the Eagles are kind of
Speaker 1: spar struck by being at the Super Bowl. Do you
Speaker 1: know that it is not the case with the New
Speaker 1: England Patriots. Week Daste from seven to eight pm E.
Speaker 1: Stern on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, Welcome back to
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle. Right here on the award winning Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network, boy Dame Martinez feeds the spitting statistician,
Speaker 1: the stable genius. I'm about to finish up, and I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go see, uh, you know, our commander in tweets
Speaker 1: tell me how the nation is. I'm gonna tell you
Speaker 1: something though, if he tweets the over under right now
Speaker 1: is five for a number of times that forty five
Speaker 1: is going to tweet on Sunday later on in the week,
Speaker 1: We're gonna do a you know, we're gonna do a
Speaker 1: Prop Bowl bonanza. I'm gonna tell you right now, my
Speaker 1: favorite bet it's two hundred to one right now that
Speaker 1: Janet Jackson will show up for another full little wardrobe malfunction.
Speaker 1: I checked her touring schedule. Janet Jackson is not touring
Speaker 1: anywhere two hundred to one. I'm just saying, but the
Speaker 1: overunder right now on our commander and tweets is five,
Speaker 1: okay for the entire day, So we're gonna chop it
Speaker 1: up about that. I actually think that the under is
Speaker 1: a good play on that one. We'll get to that.
Speaker 1: We'll get to the you know, the colors of gatorade.
Speaker 1: Who will the m v P thank first? And by
Speaker 1: the way, if you've if, if you've seen all the
Speaker 1: Patriots drama, if it is in fact TB twelve, that's
Speaker 1: the m v P. You know, he ain't thanking his
Speaker 1: head coach before he thanks his owner. So we're gonna
Speaker 1: get into all that. We're gonna get into all of that.
Speaker 1: And also, like I said, the Vegas Golden Knights are
Speaker 1: actually crushing it right now. They're eighteen and two at home,
Speaker 1: they haven't lost in regulations since Thanksgiving. Okay, their attendance
Speaker 1: is there, But my question is really why why is that?
Speaker 1: You know? Are they are the opponents just hardying a
Speaker 1: little bit too much? A lot of people are saying that,
Speaker 1: including out. Can check out this quote from Alex He says,
Speaker 1: I think the atmosphere over there, it's not a regular rink.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like an unbelievable show. You get excited.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like a nightclub, like a party. Everybody's
Speaker 1: dancing over there. It's like, Holy Jesus, or we in
Speaker 1: a hockey game? Or is this a pool party out there.
Speaker 1: They're very, very tough to play against. They jump in
Speaker 1: right away, a tremendous skill, tremendous speed. When you're not ready,
Speaker 1: you're gonna be in a tough position. Now. I don't
Speaker 1: know much about hockey. I'm gonna be quite honest with you,
Speaker 1: but I know my guy's Pete CONSTATORI does. I know
Speaker 1: my guy Chris Bavona, the Manimal does. So we're gonna
Speaker 1: chop it up with them a little bit later on
Speaker 1: in the week about is this an actual issue or
Speaker 1: is this something that they're just lucky, you know, because
Speaker 1: they got the honeymoon period as it were. So we're
Speaker 1: gonna chop it up about that. Also, because I didn't
Speaker 1: have a show yesterday, I do wanna if my man's
Speaker 1: strong Style Ninja is down there in the chat. I
Speaker 1: want to congratulate him. All last week he was talking
Speaker 1: to me about the Royal rumble, this and the Royal
Speaker 1: Rumble that and his name, for God's sakes is Strong Style,
Speaker 1: and apparently the King of Strong Style, Mr Shinsky Nakamura
Speaker 1: actually did in fact win the Royal Rumble that apparently
Speaker 1: was my pick as well. Another shot called by your
Speaker 1: boys speed and Spitting Staf destition. But the last thing
Speaker 1: I want to get into right now before we throw
Speaker 1: it on over to bso Live and Robert latal Uh
Speaker 1: Single the Mayo mark your Calendar's Cannelo, Sao Alvarez and
Speaker 1: Gonnadi Glovegin have signed. The rematch is going to happen
Speaker 1: May fifth. They haven't picked the site yet. I think
Speaker 1: it's either gonna be Vegas or maybe down in Jerry World.
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna tell you something. It's gonna be close
Speaker 1: to that border wall because they are going to have
Speaker 1: to take advantage of single the mile. My thing is,
Speaker 1: I just hope they have actual judges there, because if
Speaker 1: you remember last time in this split draw, Adelaide Bird
Speaker 1: had this at one eighteen to one ten, I was
Speaker 1: rodding with Triple G. You know, I love Cannelo as well,
Speaker 1: and it was a relatively close fight. If that card
Speaker 1: wasn't one eighteen one ten, if it was one fifteen,
Speaker 1: one thirteen, I'd be all right with it, but this
Speaker 1: is now getting into the senile refs that I like
Speaker 1: in all sports, and I think they to make sure
Speaker 1: that they got the right people there. But I will
Speaker 1: pay my onn Sinkle de Mile. After I win money
Speaker 1: on the Preakness, I'm gonna turn around and bet it
Speaker 1: all on Triple G because I still think he is
Speaker 1: the best pound for pound fighter in the world. When
Speaker 1: we come back on tomorrow's episode of The Fantasy Freestyle,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you my confidence ranks in the offensive
Speaker 1: defensive players in the units ahead of the big game.
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about these prop bets, and we're also
Speaker 1: going to talk about some changes that are come in
Speaker 1: a Major League baseball. Rob Manford has concerned, Roger Goodell
Speaker 1: is concerned. Everybody's concerned. I'm gonna tell you why. It's
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Freestyle right here on the award winning Fantasy
Speaker 1: Sports radio network. I'm out pos
