Speaker 2: Richie, you're here, which means it sounds to me like.

11
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 3: You are actually celebrating with the moms in your life.

12
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

13
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, we have a lot of moms up this way

14
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 5: in Los Angeles, so we drove up from San Diego

15
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 5: and it's great. It's a great day. And honestly, like

16
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 5: you just said, I'll echo this sentiment, Happy Mother's Day

17
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 5: to all the moms. We wouldn't be here without you.

18
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 3: Yes, that's a common denominator. All of us have a mom. Yes, yeah,

19
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 3: well we all have a mother, you know. So no,

20
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 3: today my kids are with their mom, are going to

21
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 3: tweet her to a nice lunch.

22
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 5: Today, my kids are not with their mom. So her

23
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 5: wish was to be away from her children. And you

24
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 5: got to remember, though they're four and seven, yeh, so

25
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 5: I mean she gets plenty of them. So I sent

26
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 5: her away to a resort with one of her friends

27
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 5: and they're having a good time and it's going to

28
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 5: be good because we're going to do dinner later on.

29
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 3: Well, I got to share a story. My mom passed

30
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 3: away back in twenty fifteen. I miss her dearly, but

31
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 3: obviously she's always with me at all times. But talking

32
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 3: about a unconditional love situation, which I'm a big believer in,

33
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 3: I never believe a child should have to earn the

34
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 3: love of their parents. But you know, everyone teach his own.

35
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 3: But my mom was not a big sports fan to

36
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 3: say the least, and she had designs on me being

37
00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 3: like either an attorney or a doctor, something along those lines.

38
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 2: And instead of a failure Steven exactly.

39
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 3: But I'll tell you where, my dad told me the

40
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 3: greatest story. So the first year I was working for

41
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 3: the Raiders back in nineteen eighty four, we had a

42
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 3: late season Monday night game on the road against the

43
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,240
Speaker 3: Lions at the Old Silver Dome, and my sister had

44
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 3: already moved out, so it was an emptiness of my

45
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 3: mom and dad. And my dad just got home from work,

46
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 3: and normally my mom would greet him at the door,

47
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 3: you know, she was that kind of you know, wife

48
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 3: and mom and everything else. But he walks in the

49
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 3: door and he where are you? You know type of thing,

50
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,840
Speaker 3: and she's like quiet, quiet, and he's like, what's going on?

51
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 3: And she goes, I'm watching this this football game, and

52
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 3: I'm looking for Steve. I'm looking for She thinks that

53
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,679
Speaker 3: the Monday night football broadcast is going to isolate a

54
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:53,080
Speaker 3: shot on me in the booth, but it was. My

55
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 3: dad had a good laugh. He's like, all right, I

56
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 3: think she's accepted the fact you're working for a football team,

57
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 3: and you know it's her son, and so she's supporting him.

58
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 3: But she was very disappointed that they didn't do an

59
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 3: isole on me during that Monday night broadcast.

60
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 5: They should have. I still say that what we need

61
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 5: to do more of is show the PR team with

62
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 5: all these football teams exactly. So yeah, with that, how

63
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 5: about the schedule? Elease? We saw the NFL take still

64
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 5: a couple of headlines, even though it's a busy NBA

65
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 5: postseason and obviously we have the baseball season up and going,

66
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,399
Speaker 5: but schedule lease comes out and you got a lot

67
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 5: of primetime games for the New York Jets. Yes, all

68
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 5: of a sudden, the Jets are our marquee team.

69
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 3: I'm glad you mentioned this because Bucket and I obviously Bucket,

70
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 3: by the way, was first here. This first time he's

71
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 3: been in the studio. Now I want to sort of

72
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 3: set the scene for you here in our brand new studios,

73
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 3: which any little kinks we had the first week are gone. However,

74
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 3: you and I are sitting in different seats, and you're

75
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 3: probably looking at me like, why are you sitting there

76
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 3: when you're always to my left and now you're to

77
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 3: my right.

78
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 5: I completely yeah, I didn't think of it at all.

79
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 3: Actually, well, the reason is I sat in the seat

80
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 3: last week and everything worked.

81
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: Oh so you're superstitious, so everything works.

82
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 5: When I walked in, I honestly I sat down and

83
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 5: was like, oh, maybe this is where I said.

84
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

85
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 3: Anyway, no, I you know, it's funny we talk about

86
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 3: this NFL schedule, and you're right, the Jets, a team

87
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 3: that's had the longest playoff drought currently by five years,

88
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 3: of any NFL team has five prime time games. Not

89
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 3: only get five primetime games, but how about getting to

90
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 3: host ye the very first Monday night game against the

91
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 3: Buffalo Bills.

92
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 2: You realize that could be a train wreck for the Jets.

93
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, okay, So the culture is intact in place

94
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:49,039
Speaker 5: in Buffalo, obviously, Sean McDermott, Josh Allen, the combo there

95
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 5: has had a lot of success over the years. But

96
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 5: I will say this, a culture has been built in

97
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 5: New York, like the Jets culture to me was a

98
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 5: quarterback away from working last season. That's good defense. I

99
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 5: think that's an offense that strives to be better than

100
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 5: they were. I think their problem was they had They

101
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 5: were a little listless because they were lacking quarterback leadership.

102
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 5: And then obviously their offense wasn't as efficient or productive

103
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 5: because they were missing a star or even a really

104
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 5: good player at quarterback. You don't need a star to

105
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 5: make a playoff run these days. I mean, fourteen teams

106
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 5: get in seven per conference. You just need to have

107
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 5: a really good quarterback to get in, like a Kirk Cousins.

108
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,719
Speaker 5: He's a really good quarterback. He's a top of the

109
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,640
Speaker 5: half of the league quarterback. Consistently, you know, so he'll

110
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 5: he'll get the Vikings into the playoffs if if they

111
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 5: have a good enough team around him. Same with Daniel Jones.

112
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,840
Speaker 5: I mean is he great, No? But is he really good?

113
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 6: Yeah?

114
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 5: I mean he's a top half quarter good enough, good

115
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 5: enough you need good enough.

116
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 3: I mean, if you have make the playoffs thirty two,

117
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 3: it's almost half.

118
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 5: You need a top half quarterback in order to get

119
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 5: into the NFL postseason. And so with Aaron Rodgers, and

120
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 5: assuming he doesn't get hurt, which has to be the

121
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 5: assumption in the preseason, and assuming he doesn't drop off

122
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 5: Planet Earth in terms of his abilities, I get it.

123
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 5: I think the New York Jets are going to be

124
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,919
Speaker 5: pretty damn good. I said this yesterday morning, and I

125
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 5: think people were looking at their radios and like going

126
00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 5: cross eyede. But I think the New York Jets could

127
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 5: potentially win a Super Bowl this season. That's how much

128
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 5: respect I have for Robert Sala, the team that they

129
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 5: have built, and then now adding Aaron Rodgers to the fall.

130
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 3: All right, Well, this is the same rich Orenberger who,

131
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 3: by the way, and I can be an eyewitness to

132
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 3: this ear witness who predicted that when Tom Brady joined

133
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 3: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers his first year, he predicted the

134
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 3: Buccaneers who win the Super Bowl before the season began.

135
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 2: Okay, so you nail that one.

136
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 3: By the way, it wasn't just the maybe eye opening

137
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 3: the Jets getting all these primetime games, a team that's

138
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 3: been out of the playoffs as long as they've been,

139
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 3: but certainly that opening game where the Chiefs are hosting.

140
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,960
Speaker 3: Dare I say that the Detroit Lions of this so much?

141
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: Tan I do too.

142
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 3: I mean, and again, if you're not paying attention to

143
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 3: the Lions, and really there's not a lot of reason too,

144
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 3: based on their history. Having not put it this way,

145
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 3: since they won their last NFL championship in nineteen fifty seven,

146
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,920
Speaker 3: they've won a single playoff game. Yeah one, in my lifetime,

147
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,520
Speaker 3: they've won one playoff game. But this is a Lions

148
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 3: team that had the third highest scoring offense in the

149
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 3: NFC a year ago, a team that finished the season

150
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 3: on a high note by knocking out Aaron Rodgers and

151
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 3: the Packers out of the playoffs. And they're legit. I mean,

152
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 3: Dan Campbell's a guy that got a lot of notoriety

153
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 3: on the Hard Knocks show, and he held it together.

154
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 3: This team just couldn't find a way to win, and

155
00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 3: then all of a sudden they could. And you know,

156
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 3: Jared Goff to me still should have been comeback player

157
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 3: of the Year. And I say that with all due

158
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 3: respect to Gino Smith because I don't know what Gino

159
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 3: Smith came back from.

160
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 2: You know, he might have been the breakout player of

161
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 2: the year. But you know, Jared Goff was a Pro

162
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,680
Speaker 2: Bowl quarterback, he was a Super.

163
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 3: Bowl quarterback, fell off the earth, and then came back

164
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 3: in a big way for the Lions. So I like

165
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 3: the league, you know, giving Detroit this opportunity, not gonna

166
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 3: be an easy game obviously, but an opportunity to be

167
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 3: acknowledged for what they are right now. In my opinion

168
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 3: and an opinion a lot of people, they are the

169
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 3: team to beat in the NFC North this year.

170
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 5: Well, look, the NFC North without Aaron Rodgers gets a

171
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 5: lot more playable for these other teams, the also rans

172
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 5: while Aaron Rodgers was there and Detroit good time to

173
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,719
Speaker 5: get good. They're good now?

174
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 2: Are they great?

175
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 4: No?

176
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,719
Speaker 5: Their defense leaves a lot to be desired and they

177
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 5: need to fix those problems. And they didn't address it

178
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 5: as much as I thought they would have at the

179
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 5: top of their draft, but they did make some additions.

180
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 5: The reality is, though that's a winnable division for any

181
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,360
Speaker 5: of those teams, Detroit just seems like they're the closest. Now,

182
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 5: we'll see what Jordan Love can do in the NFC North.

183
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 5: That's gonna be a storyline will obviously follow, and that's

184
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 5: a lot of pressure put on a guy replacing a great,

185
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,599
Speaker 5: a Hall of Famer. This is the same conversation we

186
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 5: had about Mac Jones, so we'll see what happens there.

187
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 5: But yeah, the Detroit Lions play an exciting brand of football,

188
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 5: high scoring. They don't play a ton of defense, so

189
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 5: you know their opponent's going to score a lot too,

190
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 5: and that's kind of been the Chiefs. Are they a

191
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 5: terrible defense.

192
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 1: No.

193
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 5: Over the last three years, you know, they give up

194
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 5: a ton of yards. They've been stingier on points, so

195
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 5: they're not allowing teams to score against them at will.

196
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 5: But theyll this will be a game that's going to

197
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 5: be played all over the field. It's going to be

198
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 5: a track meet, and I think I think that works

199
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 5: well for the NFL. In fact, if you go to Vegas,

200
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 5: and you look at the point totals for opening week,

201
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 5: the Chiefs Detroit Lions has the highest total. Right now,

202
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 5: you can bet on the opening week of the NFL

203
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 5: right now.

204
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 3: And by the way, Bucky yesterday I asked him about

205
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 3: the drafting and Jamior Gibbs. You know, a lot of

206
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 3: people were critical twelfth overall pick a running back who

207
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 3: you know, not at every down back. He's one of

208
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 3: those versatile backs. He can you know, he's an outstanding

209
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,199
Speaker 3: receiver coming out of the backfield.

210
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 2: And Bucky defended it.

211
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 3: He says, look, people are gonna come back after they

212
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 3: see Gibbs and the way they're going to use them

213
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 3: in this offense, saying we were wrong. That was a

214
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 3: great pick because really, when you think about it, even

215
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 3: though they have prolific offensive numbers, they still need pieces offensively. Now,

216
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 3: everyone said, well, their defense is horrible, which it is,

217
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 3: but you can only do one thing. But they felt

218
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 3: like Gibbs was a guy that's going to give them

219
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 3: a lot of versatility out of the backfield, is going

220
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,200
Speaker 3: to add to that offense. So we'll get much more

221
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,199
Speaker 3: into the NFL schedule that came out. Obviously, we got

222
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 3: a game seven coming up today between the Celtics and

223
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 3: the seventy six ers. Bo Are we going to have

224
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 3: John Palm Morosi here at the top of the show.

225
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 3: Is that what I'm looking at here?

226
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 2: Really? All right?

227
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,559
Speaker 3: So we're gonna check in not only to get a

Speaker 8: as always, and then for the Mother's Day wishes here, Yes,

255
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 8: all five of us at home right now, so it's

256
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 8: a great date at the Morossi household. I wish all

257
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 8: the same to everyone out there as well.

258
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,560
Speaker 3: All right, before we get to Major League Baseball, you know,

259
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 3: I got to jump in on the NHL, the kracking

260
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 3: trying to eliminate Edmonton, and of course tomorrow we got

261
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,640
Speaker 3: a Game seven, excuse me, the Golden Knights trying to

262
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 3: eliminate and then of course the Game seven with a crack.

263
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 3: And I mean if we have a Stanley Cup Final

264
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 3: between the Kraken and the Golden Knights, how does.

265
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:55,959
Speaker 2: That sit you think?

266
00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:01,599
Speaker 3: With the NHL and the p of such a Stanley

267
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 3: Cup Final.

268
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 8: I think it would be great to have that as

269
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 8: the Western final if you have Seattle in Vegas matching up.

270
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 8: But of course in the East, you've got Carolina and Florida.

271
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,319
Speaker 8: Markets that we would have said years ago are not

272
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 8: necessarily the most traditional going back generations. These are not

273
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 8: original six markets. But it really reflects the growth of

274
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 8: the game of hockey around North America. And you see

275
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 8: how much the fan bases in every city really attach

276
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,439
Speaker 8: themselves and fall in love with their team. I think

277
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,120
Speaker 8: it's really important to make this point that the duration

278
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 8: of time that your city has liked a sport does

279
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 8: not necessarily dictate its passion for it. That's a really

280
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 8: really important distinction, just because if you take it to

281
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 8: a different comparison, just because the US hasn't been a

282
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,920
Speaker 8: massive soccer country for as long as Britain or Italy

283
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 8: or Germany does not mean that for the next World

284
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,839
Speaker 8: Cup that we were not going to be excited about

285
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 8: the event. We love the event. The same thing is

286
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 8: true in hockey. You see Matthew kud Chuck and that

287
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 8: the proud family of the kuld Chucks, and think about

288
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 8: all they've done in US hockey through the course of

289
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 8: their time in the game, and for Matthew to help

290
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 8: grow the sport in Florida and become a real spokesperson

291
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 8: for that franchise there is just great for the sport

292
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,480
Speaker 8: and Carolina Rod Brenda Moore everything he's invested there for

293
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 8: a long time as the head coach, and what a

294
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 8: talented group. They've got a lot of really good defensemen,

295
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 8: including a couple of Americans back there too. So it's

296
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 8: just a really nice set of storylines right now. And yeah,

297
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 8: you don't have the Red Wings or the Maple Leafs

298
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 8: anymore the Canadians, but you've got a lot of really

299
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 8: passionate hockey fans which are driving enthusiasm in this set

300
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:49,120
Speaker 8: of playoffs. And tonight you've got a chance to see

301
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 8: Connor McDavid trying to avoid elimination and see if the

302
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,480
Speaker 8: best player of his modern era is able to get

303
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 8: to a Game seven in the Western Conference semifinal.

304
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 5: Well before that NHL game, we have I have MLB

305
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 5: playing all day today, including what's supposed to be one

306
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 5: of the marquee matchups in Major League Baseball right now

307
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 5: between the Padres and Dodgers, both because this was so

308
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 5: competitive last season, including in the NLDS, that the Padres

309
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 5: were finally able to slay the dragon up the I

310
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 5: five and advanced to the NLCS to later get dispatched

311
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 5: by the Phillies. But it's not it's it's not a

312
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 5: great matchup. The Dodgers are dominating this early this season

313
00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 5: so far. Another four to two victory yesterday. They have

314
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 5: Getaway Day, a one ten first pitch on the West Coast.

315
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 5: And I'm looking at some of these stats for the Padres.

316
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 5: Two toh three is what they're batting with runners in

317
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,000
Speaker 5: scoring position. This I read from an article this morning.

318
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 5: The Padres scored fewer than three runs in the game yesterday.

319
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 5: That was the seventeenth time this season they've done that.

320
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 5: Their offense is just dreadful. Only the A's have done

321
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 5: this more often than the Padres. The A's are spending

322
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 5: sixty some part of sixty million dollars on their payroll.

323
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 5: The Padres are spending two hundred and forty six million dollars.

324
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 5: So how do they fix this problem because the majority

325
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 5: of that money is being spent on their lineup and

326
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,800
Speaker 5: they're just not producing any offense.

327
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 8: Well to me, Rich and this is obviously more than

328
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 8: more than one player, more nuanced and complicated story than that.

329
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 8: But let's remember who finished second last year in the

330
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 8: National League MVP voting. Manny Machado, one of the best

331
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 8: and most talented players in the sport finish, is second

332
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,640
Speaker 8: in the league in MVP voting, and this year is

333
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 8: is batting two thirty seven with a six sixty two

334
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 8: ops and is a below league average hitter. It's very difficult.

335
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,640
Speaker 8: I don't care what your payroll is, is difficult to

336
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 8: have a player on your team who has been an

337
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 8: MVP caliber player and you're counting on him for MVP

338
00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 8: numbers and he's producing at below league average for the

339
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 8: whole sport as an offensive player. That doesn't work. And

340
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 8: so if he were injured and we were asking the

341
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 8: question of why the Padres aren't the same team, and

342
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 8: the answer would be that they don't have Machado. And

343
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 8: what I'm saying is they don't have the Machado that

344
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,479
Speaker 8: they thought they were going to have, and that's I

345
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,920
Speaker 8: think a really significant issue. That they do have other problems.

346
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 8: I think Bogarts has cooled off a little bit since

347
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 8: the start of the season. Soto, I think is getting

348
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,679
Speaker 8: to be more aggressive now and more productive. The pitching

349
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 8: has been okay, But I would say to you Rich

350
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 8: and Steve, they missed their opportunity. Their opportunity this year

351
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 8: came because the initial phase of the Dodgers season was

352
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:46,919
Speaker 8: pretty disappointing, that they did not have a very good

353
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 8: start of the year at all, and there was an

354
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 8: opening there, whether it's for the d Backs or the

355
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 8: Padres to step in and really take charge. And the

356
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 8: Diamondbacks have been pretty good. But now you're starting to

357
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,879
Speaker 8: see the Dodgers get their own and I'm going again.

358
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 8: And we all know that once the Dodgers get going,

359
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 8: it's hard to stop them. And I think that right

360
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 8: now that is the reality for the San Diego Padres.

361
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,520
Speaker 2: Big come for me, hind win for the Yankees yesterday

362
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:11,520
Speaker 2: against the Rays.

363
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 3: You look at the AL East right now, JP, and

364
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 3: everyone's on pace to win at least eighty nine games

365
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,560
Speaker 3: this year, right, I mean, how's.

366
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 2: This going to shake out this year in the AL East?

367
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 8: Well, here's the interesting part of this, Steve, is that

368
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:30,280
Speaker 8: let's remember that now that we have the change in

369
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 8: schedule format, that it no longer would be accurate or

370
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 8: appropriate for me to say, well, it's all going to

371
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 8: even out, and eventually you're going to have a team

372
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 8: that's decidedly below five hundred playing in the last place,

373
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 8: and someone's going to get cold because of all the

374
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 8: times they play, they play against each other. That's not

375
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 8: the way the schedule works anymore. You've got many, many

376
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 8: more games outside of your division, which means that we

377
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:59,320
Speaker 8: could see it's entirely possible all three wild card teams

378
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,440
Speaker 8: come out of the same division. Now, obviously they're still

379
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 8: going to play a lot down the stretch, and so

380
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 8: it's possible that we'll see one team fall off a little.

381
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 8: But guys, this is the best division in the major leagues,

382
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 8: and not by a little, by a lot. The National

383
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 8: League East has had its moments, but the Mets of

384
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 8: this year are not the Mets of last year. Even

385
00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,440
Speaker 8: the Phillies of this year are not the Phillies of

386
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 8: last year. The Braves are holding up their end of

387
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 8: the bargain. But there is just so much talent right

388
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 8: now in the American League East, and I'm here to

389
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 8: tell you this too. The Rays are about to test

390
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 8: everything that you heard about baseball for generations growing up,

391
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 8: about how you build a successful team. The Rays have

392
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 8: the best starting rotation era in the sport, despite the

393
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 8: fact that their rotation has combined for the fewest innings

394
00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 8: in the American League. Usually you associate effective rotations with

395
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 8: rotations that go deep into games. That is not the

396
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 8: way the Rays do things. They are scrambling the normal

397
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 8: ways of doing and arranging your pitching staff, and so

398
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 8: this is where the Rays are going to have. I

399
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 8: believe some struggles going forward. You might see some of

400
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,160
Speaker 8: their relievers having very high workloads and maybe their performance

401
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 8: will diminish a little bit. They have already gotten now,

402
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 8: Drew Rasmussen on the sixty day injured list because of

403
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 8: a flexer tenant issue. Shane McClanahan, as you mentioned, he

404
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,760
Speaker 8: gave up a six run lead yesterday. They had a

405
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 8: six to nothing lead in the fifth inning with the

406
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,439
Speaker 8: American League All Star starter from a year ago on

407
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 8: the mound and lost the baseball game. So they are

408
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,919
Speaker 8: by record the best team in the sport, but I

409
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 8: believe that right now they're no longer the best team going.

410
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 8: I like Atlanta a little bit more than Tampa Bay

411
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 8: right now.

412
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 5: Okay, you bring up Tampa Bay, I have to talk

413
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,040
Speaker 5: to you about the Baltimore Orioles. Last week we spoke

414
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,199
Speaker 5: to you about name a team or teams that are

415
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 5: catching your eye as a better start than you expected

416
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,440
Speaker 5: or maybe a stronger roster than expected. The Orioles since

417
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 5: last week spoke, as you pointed out, one of those teams,

418
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 5: they won four straight. I mean, is this sustainable? Like

419
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 5: could this be one of those teams you are talking

420
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 5: about in September and October.

421
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 8: They're a really good team. And the reason why rich

422
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 8: I like them and I like them to actually have

423
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 8: a pretty successful October as well, is they're young, They're

424
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 8: pretty durable, they're pretty athletic, they defend well. They're going

425
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 8: to get better from within by calling guys up who

426
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 8: I think are ready to take on more prominent roles

427
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 8: without having to make big trades for them. And they

428
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 8: also have a sturdy enough farm system to where they

429
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 8: can afford to give up a player or two if

430
00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,879
Speaker 8: they end up wanting to trade for a uh Lucas

431
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,959
Speaker 8: Giolito or an Eduardo Rodriguez during the course of the season.

432
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 8: They are in a really, really good spot. And this

433
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 8: is where listen, I watch the Yankees. I like a

434
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 8: lot of the guys that they've they've put together. They've

435
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,119
Speaker 8: got a lot of professional players in that in that room,

436
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,760
Speaker 8: but the injuries are going to keep happening for them

437
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 8: because they're an older roster, just like the Mets. It is.

438
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:31,919
Speaker 8: It is completely, in my opinion, disingenuous for any for

439
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,919
Speaker 8: any analyst or any executive or team official, whatever it

440
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 8: might be, to say, Wow, we've got we've got a

441
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,359
Speaker 8: great team, but we keep getting hurt, uh and and

442
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 8: we can't you know, we've got all these amazing names,

443
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 8: but just as soon as we get all of our

444
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,239
Speaker 8: guys ready, then we'll be okay. Well, that's not how

445
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,159
Speaker 8: baseball works. It's not about the names of it's not

446
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 8: about their Hall of Fame resume. It's about it's about

447
00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 8: how they're playing right now and how what their level

448
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 8: of fitness and form is at the moment. We could

449
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 8: go back and reassemble the two thousand Yankees, but I

450
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 8: don't think they would do very well against the present

451
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,120
Speaker 8: day because they're all older players. And I'm not saying

452
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 8: it's to this extent, but it's not a surprise that

453
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 8: Verlander and Suzer have only won a handful of games

454
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 8: for the Mets this season, at least when you consider

455
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,880
Speaker 8: how old they are. This is what happens to older players.

456
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 8: And that's why I think, especially in this era of

457
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 8: the pitch timer, you know, one of the things I

458
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 8: think we'll probably realize more and more as time goes on,

459
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 8: it's advantage to the young players. Their bodies are a

460
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 8: little they're a little quicker to recover, and they're also

461
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 8: more use to the playing in this method by virtue

462
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 8: of having come to the minor leagues very recently. So

463
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 8: this is an advantage to the younger players, younger teams.

464
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 8: And that to me right now talks about the Baltimore

465
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 8: Oriols a whole lot.

466
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:51,160
Speaker 5: All Right.

467
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 3: I got to think, in one more quick question, Ronald Acunya,

468
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 3: who's the best player in baseball so far this season?

469
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 3: Infamous for that signing that eight year, one one hundred

470
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 3: million dollar contract, which is pennies on the dollar what

471
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,159
Speaker 3: the guys are making these days. He's had injuries the

472
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 3: last couple of years. Maybe it was like, hey, maybe

473
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 3: it's the Braves have been paying the price for a

474
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 3: guy that hasn't been able to stay healthy. But now

475
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 3: he's putting up those kind of numbers that a lot

476
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,919
Speaker 3: of people predicted that he would have. He is still

477
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 3: signed to this deal for many years ahead. If he

478
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: has like a huge year, if he has an MVP

479
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,919
Speaker 3: season thirty thirty, forty forty, who knows some crazy season

480
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 3: like that. Any chance A Kunya says, yeah, that deal

481
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,879
Speaker 3: that we sign doesn't fly anymore, we need a new deal.

482
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 2: How would the Braves approach something like that?

483
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 8: It's a great question. I don't necessarily see that happening

484
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 8: at the moment. I mean, obviously, first and foremost, my

485
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 8: own personal policy on I'm talking about players and contracts

486
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,840
Speaker 8: is when someone offers you a life changing sum of money,

487
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 8: I would never begrudge a player for accepting it. And

488
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 8: I think that's exactly what happened with with Akunya. And

489
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 8: you're right, when he's playing like this, he's he's one

490
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 8: of the three or four best talents in the entire sport.

491
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 8: Do I think he'll he'll challenge and say, hey, we

492
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,879
Speaker 8: have to renegotiate right now. I really don't. I just

493
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 8: think that it's not something that we see happen too

494
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 8: often in Major League Baseball. Do they come together and

495
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 8: maybe as time moves forward, have a more comprehensive look

496
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 8: at things and reconfigure some of the deals as other

497
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 8: players have done. I think about Salvador Perez in his

498
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 8: contract with the Royals years ago, perhaps that maybe could

499
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,280
Speaker 8: could come up. But I think in general, Steve he's

500
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,719
Speaker 8: he's motivated by keeping his focus on the field and

501
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 8: showing that he's one of the very best players in

502
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 8: the game, and maybe in a year like this, the

503
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 8: best player in the game. Obviously Otani's in his own

504
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 8: category in so many ways, but I think Akunya, who's

505
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 8: got a real proud sense of his performance in his

506
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 8: place in the game. He's heard a lot about Otani

507
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 8: and Trout and all the great players of the current times,

508
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 8: Daron Judge, and I think he said, Okay, this is

509
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,000
Speaker 8: my time now. I want to have people talking about

510
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 8: me and the way that he's played. From talking to

511
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:12,880
Speaker 8: people around the Braves that I was in Atlanta last week

512
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 8: and they said, he's really taken a more detailed focus

513
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 8: to his preparation and his desire to be great, his

514
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 8: desire to be a Hall of Famer, and we're now

515
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 8: seeing one of the absolute best talents in the game

516
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,160
Speaker 8: playing like it on the field every day, and man

517
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:30,119
Speaker 8: is it fun to watch?

518
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:30,720
Speaker 2: All right?

519
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 3: So Happy Mother's Day to all the moms in your life. JP,

520
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 3: I appreciate you taking time out on this busy day

521
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 3: and we'll talk to you next week.

522
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 8: Happy Mother's Day, guys. I really enjoyed the conversation. Enjoy

523
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,400
Speaker 8: all this amazing hockey and hoops and baseball going around

524
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 8: this time of year. I just love it. Spring is

525
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 8: here and I'm so thrilled.

526
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 3: There he is, the great John Palmer ROSSI thanks JP,

527
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 3: our Fox Sports Radio and MLB insider, our NHL expert.

528
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,359
Speaker 3: Of course, I made a fool out of myself to

529
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 3: open up the conversation about my NHL quin and talking

530
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 3: about a potential matchup of Kracking versus the Golden Knights

531
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 3: in the Stanley Cup final.

532
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,959
Speaker 2: Obviously it would be the Western Conference final.

533
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 5: Correct, and you will be flogged.

534
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:15,640
Speaker 2: I will be flogged.

535
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 3: Bo I mean, I brought and I got so excited

536
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 3: about the Kracking and the Golden Knights, you know, expansion

537
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 3: team suddenly facing out potentially in the next round. That

538
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,760
Speaker 3: would be for Western Conference supremacy. Let's find out what

539
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 3: is trending right now. And taking time out on her

540
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,840
Speaker 3: Mother's Day to hang out with her mom.

541
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:41,359
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, MONSI I'm sorry, I'm a little sniffy. I

542
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 4: just took a shot of a ginger shot with our

543
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 4: one of our editors, Shay, and I am crying. I'm

544
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 4: sniff lely a giant ginger shot to be healthy.

545
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 2: Guys, hold on, he just peaked in the door, probably crying.

546
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 6: Too, like we were in tears right now.

547
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, ginger, Yeah, if you get which I'm assuming it's

548
00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 5: raw ginger.

549
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 6: He just went to a whole and it was like

550
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 6: they just made it.

551
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,119
Speaker 5: They'll rock, you know.

552
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, yeah, this why I prefer to quila instead

553
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 4: of the healthy stuff.

554
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,120
Speaker 2: Well, I ask you, let me ask you this same, mom,

555
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,520
Speaker 2: I love you. Yes. By the way, would that shot

556
00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 2: have gone well with some egg plants today?

557
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:14,560
Speaker 8: Oh?

558
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 6: Yes?

559
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:19,160
Speaker 4: Well maybe no, maybe maybe.

560
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 5: We've already discussed this. Yeah, there's so many balls in

561
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 5: there right now.

562
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 2: I know. I Oh, you know what he's gonna do.

563
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 2: He'll just surprise you.

564
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:32,119
Speaker 3: Yes, when you least expected, which is always Good's surprised.

565
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 2: Nothing better than I think you took on a project

566
00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:39,960
Speaker 2: that you honestly don't believe you can pull off. Oh no, no,

567
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 2: I can pull it off. To a flame, Troy and

568
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 2: egg plant.

569
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, no, I have the whole thing mapped

570
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,320
Speaker 5: out of my head. It's going to be as ridiculous

571
00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 5: as it sounds.

572
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 6: And I cannot wait. I cannot wait.

573
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 4: Well, what's trending, to nobody's surprise is joh Murrant. Guys,

574
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,040
Speaker 4: I can't believe we're talking about this, but Ja Morant

575
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 4: has been suspended by the Memphis Grizzlies from all team

576
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 4: activities pending an NBA review because a new social media

577
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 4: surface went viral today. One of Ja Morant's friends posted

578
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 4: an Instagram live stream and in the video was.

579
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 6: Jamorant in the passenger seat.

580
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 4: They seem to be singing along to a rap song,

581
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 4: and then you can briefly see that Jamarant is holding

582
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 4: a gun in the video his friend even kind of

583
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,400
Speaker 4: it looks like the friend realized what was happening, because

584
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 4: then it looks like the video goes down to his

585
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 4: lap and you see nothing that's on purpose.

586
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, obviously this was.

587
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 5: A quick glimpse of the gun in his hand, but

588
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 5: if you freeze it, like, it's very clear.

589
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 6: See it is very clear.

590
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 4: And then even his friend after that moment with his

591
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,280
Speaker 4: hands does like a gun symbol with his hands. Oh yeah,

592
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 4: so it's like it's very we are not misinterpreting anything

593
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 4: with this video that unfortunately, only one hundred and ten

594
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 4: people were seeing it live at the time, and now

595
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 4: it has gone completely viral. The video has been deleted,

596
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,240
Speaker 4: it doesn't matter. You can easily find it on social media.

597
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 4: It's only been two months since John Moran was suspended

598
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 4: a games after he live streamed himself holding a gun

599
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 4: at a club. Only been two months. No comment yet,

600
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 4: obviously from Morant or any of his representatives pending story,

601
00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 4: but people on social media are comparing him a lot

602
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 4: to Aaron Hernandez, just how he kind of seems to

603
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 4: be handling his career and all of that. Today in

604
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 4: the NBA, though, we do have an exciting Game seven.

605
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 4: There's nothing like a Game seven winner. Go home Philadelphia

606
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,240
Speaker 4: seventy six Ers and the Boston Celtics. It tips off

607
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 4: at three thirty pm Eastern time. We've got some baseball

608
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 4: going on. After a four plus hour rain delay, which

609
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 4: I complained about raindelays, the Mets and the Nationals are

610
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:47,440
Speaker 4: back in action today and the Nationals have taken the

611
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 4: lead two to one.

612
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 6: Is the score against the Mets at home.

613
00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 4: Bottom of the six inning, the Angels and the Guardians

614
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:56,200
Speaker 4: were tied at one apiece, but not anymore. Josh Naylor

615
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 4: just hit a three run homer for the Guardians and

616
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 4: now they're up four to one. Top of the ninth inning.

617
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 4: They are playing in Cleveland. The Braves and the Blue

618
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 4: Jays literally just started. It's the top of the first

619
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 4: inning and the Braves have already scored one.

620
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 6: Zero is the score.

621
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 4: They are playing in Toronto, guys, we're just getting started.

622
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 3: Back to you, all right, Monsey, thank you very much.

00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,360
Speaker 3: Progressive dot com. Well, while Moncey was telling us everything

628
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,360
Speaker 3: that's going on with the JA more and I was

629
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 3: viewing the video, which of course is out there again

630
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:42,840
Speaker 3: in full view. Look, the NBA obviously is going to

631
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 3: look into this matter. And the question is when you

632
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:54,480
Speaker 3: have someone that is oblivious apparently wrongdoing, who doesn't feel

633
00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 3: any responsibility to his commitment as an NBA player to

634
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 3: the Memphis Grizzlies franchise. Regardless of how much talent he

635
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 3: has on a basketball court, you know those that are

636
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 3: around him. You know, if you want to live your

637
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 3: life a certain way, that's great. But if you're employed

638
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:18,720
Speaker 3: by somebody, if they're putting money in your pocket, there

639
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 3: is an obligation you have to the Grizzlies, to the NBA.

640
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 3: And if you want to forfeit that in order to

641
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 3: live the life that you choose to live, go for it.

642
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 3: But we can't coexist either. You're going to get either

643
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 3: you're going to change your ways to adhere to rules

644
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 3: that other players in the league have to adhere to,

645
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,760
Speaker 3: or we're going to cut you loose and then you

646
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 3: can go do whatever you want to do. I mean,

647
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 3: at some point you got to step in with some

648
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 3: tough love here on Jan Moran and saying enough's enough,

649
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 3: or it is over your NBA career.

650
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 5: Yes, somebody that he respects, and it doesn't have to

651
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 5: be a parent, but to step up and be the parent.

652
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 5: And it can be a coach in your life. It

653
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 5: can be an older friend who you consider a mentor

654
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 5: an uncle, an actual parent. It could be even a

655
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 5: friend who's even a couple of years, like a couple

656
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 5: of years, you know, maybe just a slightly older friend,

657
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 5: but somebody who's got a little bit more life experience

658
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 5: than Jah, who he trusts, needs to try to get

659
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 5: to him and coach him up a little bit, because

660
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 5: he is a coachable person. You can see it in

661
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 5: his athletic career. It's not just god given talent. This

662
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 5: guy's a smart basketball player. He's learned a lot on

663
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 5: the court, he can learn a lot off the court.

664
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 5: He has that propensity for education. There's no doubt in

665
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 5: my mind. Somebody needs to be that role for him.

666
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 5: Somebody needs to show him the path a little bit. Look,

667
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 5: you know, I didn't learn about my dad growing up

668
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 5: until I was much older, Like he wanted to shield

669
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 5: me from some of the nonsense he got into as

670
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 5: a young man. But you know, he made a lot

671
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 5: of life decisions that he wasn't all that proud of.

672
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 5: But the one thing he didn't want to screw up

673
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 5: is being a being a dad and being a good dad,

674
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 5: and he is. I know. Look, my mom on Mother's

675
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 5: Day had a lot to do with my upbringing. She

676
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,719
Speaker 5: was a wonderful person. Is a wonderful person and did

677
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:15,040
Speaker 5: a great job. But my dad. I remember one time

678
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:16,719
Speaker 5: we were getting ready for something. I didn't want to

679
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 5: put on a suit because I was going through that

680
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 5: phase in my childhood where I'm like, I'm damn the man,

681
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,319
Speaker 5: I'll do whatever I want. I'll show up to this

682
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 5: church way whatever I want. And he was like, no,

683
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 5: you won't, and he explained to me. He sat me

684
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 5: down to explain this to me. He's like, sometimes in

685
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 5: life you get to do what you want. He's like,

686
00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 5: sometimes in life you have to do what everybody else

687
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 5: wants you to do, right, because you're representing more than

688
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 5: just yourself. You're walking into this function representing your family.

689
00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 5: You're going to put on a suit because that's how

690
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 5: I'm asking you do. Now. When you're a man, you

691
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,839
Speaker 5: can make your own decisions, but right now you're representing us,

692
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 5: So that's what you're gonna do. And dude, it's I mean,

693
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,320
Speaker 5: I'm still telling this or in thirty seven that probably

694
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 5: that conversation probably happened when I was twelve or thirteen.

695
00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:07,800
Speaker 5: It resonated. I know that John wants to do whatever

696
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 5: he wants. He's a grown man. He has a lot

697
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 5: of money, has a lot of access to a lot

698
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 5: of things. But guess what, you also represent the Memphis Grizzlies.

699
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 5: You also represent every single fan wearing a brand jersey.

700
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,919
Speaker 5: You're bigger than yourself. Jah just doesn't get it yet,

701
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,240
Speaker 5: and somebody needs to sit down with him and explain

702
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 5: to him. Today you're putting on a suit to go

703
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:32,760
Speaker 5: to church. I'm sorry, It's just one of those experiences

704
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 5: that maybe he hasn't had yet, and maybe we're all

705
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,760
Speaker 5: expecting him to be better than this and he just hasn't.

706
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 5: Now again, he's a grown man, so we're gonna hold

707
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,919
Speaker 5: him accountable. But somebody in his life. I mean, if

708
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,279
Speaker 5: anybody in his life is listening to the sound of

709
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 5: my voice right now, get a hold of this guy

710
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 5: and try to be that person for him, because he

711
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:53,480
Speaker 5: needs help.

712
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,759
Speaker 3: Well, if you're one of those people that is easily

713
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,239
Speaker 3: influenced by people around you, and I can tell you

714
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 3: from my own personal experience that I fell in groups

715
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 3: at times that I look back on like what was

716
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 3: I thinking. That's what he needs to examine. Look at

717
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 3: the people around you. You have a friend that posted

718
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:17,920
Speaker 3: you with a gun knowing that you were remorseful remember all, yeah,

719
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 3: I will never have this will never happen again.

720
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,920
Speaker 5: He said, it doesn't represent me, it doesn't represent me.

721
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 2: You know, you know I've learned.

722
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,439
Speaker 3: And then three weeks after, you know done, he's doing

723
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,600
Speaker 3: it again with a friend by the way, posting something friend.

724
00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:35,839
Speaker 2: So maybe he should alter the company that he keeps.

725
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,479
Speaker 3: In order to take on the straight and narrow, because

726
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,640
Speaker 3: obviously he's very influenced by those around him. All right,

727
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 3: coming up on the other side, we're going to get

728
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,359
Speaker 3: an early sneak peek, obviously coming up with this Game

729
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:49,879
Speaker 3: seven between the Sixers and the Celtics. But first we're

730
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 3: going to look back on history being made in the

731
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 3: sports world. History being made in the sports world. This

732
00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:01,359
Speaker 3: is Fox Sports Sunday.

733
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,840
Speaker 2: Dave Hartman, Rich Ornberger.

734
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 3: This is Fox Sports Sunday on this Mother's Day, and

735
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:11,839
Speaker 3: we are live from the Tyraq dot Com studios. So yesterday, Rich,

736
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 3: I'm sitting here with Bucky and we're getting near the

737
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 3: top of an hour, and I said, all right, I'm

738
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 3: going to ask something because I don't normally advertise my

739
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 3: Twitter account at Cannon Hartman, but I wanted to get

740
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 3: some input on whether or not we should make any

741
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 3: mention of what was the pending XFL championship game with

742
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:38,440
Speaker 3: the Arlington Arlington Renegades. Am I right with then Arlington Renegades, Yes,

743
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:42,280
Speaker 3: Arlington Renegades and the d So this is this matchup

744
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:45,919
Speaker 3: of a four and six team going against a over

745
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 3: definitely a big time Defenders team, And I said, I

746
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 3: want to see if there's any reaction on Twitter, and

747
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 3: all of a sudden I get inundated, like I said,

748
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 3: how many people have actually seen any any even a

749
00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 3: second of XFL football this year? And I started getting

750
00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 3: all these tweets from people saying, not only have I

751
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 3: seen the XFL, I'm actually on my way to the

752
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:13,360
Speaker 3: game to the Alamo Dome. As it turned out Arlington.

753
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 3: I don't know how many teams in the history of

754
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 3: professional sports have won a championship with a losing record,

755
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 3: but the Renegades did. Was there, So I was like, wow,

756
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 3: I mean that's sort of a story, right, that a

757
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 3: team with a losing record in the regulars season wins

758
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:36,359
Speaker 3: a championship led by a quarterback that you're familiar with

759
00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:40,359
Speaker 3: from the old Alliance of American Footballlie Perez, who has

760
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 3: played in seemingly every league possible to keep his dream alive.

761
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 3: So I want to acknowledge again the Renegades with Bob

762
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 3: Stoops by the way as their coach, to show you

763
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,760
Speaker 3: how crazy it was. In their ten regular season games

764
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,000
Speaker 3: rich they scored ten touchdowns.

765
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:58,200
Speaker 5: Wow.

766
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,680
Speaker 3: Total Wow. For the entire year, in ten games they

767
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 3: scored ten touchdowns. They had five last night. So I'm

768
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 3: gonna ask what I asked Bucky yesterday from your perspective,

769
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 3: with your history in renegade leagues? Are we gonna see

770
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 3: the rock uh and the xfl endoor? Is there a

771
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 3: way could we see a merger? People are asking that

772
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:25,320
Speaker 3: of the USFL and the XFL, But after so many

773
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 3: false starts, could we finally see them going the distance?

774
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,000
Speaker 5: You just have to keep costs down, right as long

775
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 5: it's drawing a rating. If you look, it's actually not terrible.

776
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 5: They're drawing numbers. So if you can keep costs down,

777
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 5: if you're probably not going to cut a profit for

778
00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:50,360
Speaker 5: a long while. But if you have basically a proof

779
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,879
Speaker 5: of product where you can go to networks and say, consistently,

780
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:58,359
Speaker 5: we rate consistently, we have a consistent project project here

781
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,359
Speaker 5: with good funding. We just need to be on a

782
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,799
Speaker 5: bigger network. We need to have more of an advertising

783
00:40:05,840 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 5: push behind us, and that's when you'll start getting away

784
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,359
Speaker 5: from breaking even or slight losses and start making money.

785
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'll celebrate. I watched it a little bit yesterday.

786
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:19,120
Speaker 3: Congratulations to them Celtics Sixers Game seven, the preview coming

796
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 3: away of tip off between the Philadelphia seventy six Ers

797
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:52,840
Speaker 3: and the Boston Celtics, Game seven of this Eastern Conference

798
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 3: semi final series. And a week ago, Rich I asked

799
00:40:55,880 --> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 3: you we had potentially three game sevens today, cential game

800
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:04,440
Speaker 3: seven tomorrow. Which series is the most likely to go

801
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 3: to a seventh game? You said, and a lot of

802
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,320
Speaker 3: people agreed with you, would be the Lakers series against

803
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,919
Speaker 3: the Golden State Warriors. As it turned out, Lakers took

804
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,399
Speaker 3: care of business in a big way in Game six.

805
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 3: So the one game seven, we get Philadelphia and Boston

806
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 3: and could not have expected this. After Boston coughed up

807
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 3: Game five at home, Philadelphia went home and all of

808
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 3: a sudden, you're looking at the Sixers like, all right,

809
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 3: they're gonna wrap this thing out and knock out the Celtics.

810
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,719
Speaker 3: But in that fourth quarter, you know, let's face it,

811
00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,239
Speaker 3: they sort of lost it.

812
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 5: In that fourth quarter.

813
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 3: Tatum, who had zero shots made in the first half,

814
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:46,560
Speaker 3: suddenly got hot late for the Celtics, and the Celtics

815
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 3: pulled out that game. So before we even get to

816
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 3: this matchup of this Game seven today, I got to

817
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:54,319
Speaker 3: go back to the Lakers series against the Warriors. There's

818
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 3: so many storylines that come out of that series, even

819
00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 3: though it is over. But when you look at potentially today,

820
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 3: if the Celtics win, the final four in this year's

821
00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 3: NBA Playoffs, will be identical to the four teams that

822
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:15,440
Speaker 3: were the final four in the Bubble in twenty twenty

823
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 3: three years ago. It was the Lakers, the Nuggets, the Heat,

824
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 3: and the Celtics. So how surprised are you that with

825
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 3: everything that's gone on this year with the Lakers, that

826
00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 3: they're not just in the Final four, but they're on

827
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:38,080
Speaker 3: par right now with any team remaining in the playoffs.

828
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 5: I wouldn't say I'm shocked, because anytime you have Lebron James,

829
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:45,759
Speaker 5: you have a legitimate shot to win a title. I

830
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 5: feel this way about a few players. Tom Brady comes

831
00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 5: to mind, you know, just because of who he is

832
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 5: and what his resume says he is and what he's

833
00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 5: done now with multiple teams. The same could be said

834
00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,920
Speaker 5: about Lebron James. So if Tom Brady comes out of

835
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,319
Speaker 5: retirement and, oh, I don't know, plays for the Las

836
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:06,400
Speaker 5: Vegas Raiders, you'll hear me saying a similar thing about

837
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,960
Speaker 5: the Las Vegas Raiders, because there are just certain special

838
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 5: players that are catalytic that can spark something special with

839
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,000
Speaker 5: the team, and Lebron's absolutely that type of players. So,

840
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,000
Speaker 5: having said that, though, doubt crept in at the end

841
00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:22,280
Speaker 5: of the regular season, especially when Darvin ham was making

842
00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:27,320
Speaker 5: pronouncements like these two, you know, towers of power ad Lebron,

843
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:30,880
Speaker 5: They're not gonna miss another game this season, unless, of

844
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 5: course it's injury. I can't predict injury and then they

845
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 5: started resting them, and there were injuries, and there was

846
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 5: fear that come the postseason, in the play in or otherwise,

847
00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:45,440
Speaker 5: that they would be dispatched of early. But playoff Lebron

848
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 5: is a real thing. Playoff ad is a real thing

849
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:52,480
Speaker 5: when he's available and when he's playing, like we saw

850
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,920
Speaker 5: in the clinching game against Warriors, Anthony Davis is one

851
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:59,279
Speaker 5: of the most devastating players in the NBA. It's just

852
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:02,440
Speaker 5: either a when he chooses to be or be when

853
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,920
Speaker 5: he's able to, and both of those things are up

854
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 5: in the air on any given night. So am I surprised, Yeah,

855
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 5: kind of, but only because of how they look. I

856
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:15,759
Speaker 5: can tell you in the pit of my stomach, I

857
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 5: don't have this feeling. Wow, the Lakers are in the

858
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,160
Speaker 5: last four, because I figured they'd be in the Western

859
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:26,240
Speaker 5: Conference Finals. It's Lebron James, the best or the second

860
00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:29,160
Speaker 5: best player to ever walk planet Earth at the sport

861
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 5: he participates in, So it's not that shocking.

862
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 9: All right.

863
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 3: He's the best, by the way, and with all due

864
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:37,440
Speaker 3: respect to Michael Jordan, by the way, just a quick notice.

865
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 3: They get ready for their Western Conference Final matchup against Denver,

866
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:45,440
Speaker 3: and let's let's be clear on this. Nikola Jokic has

867
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 3: been the best player.

868
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 5: In these playoffs. Oh, no doubt, no doubt.

869
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 2: It is the best player in these playoffs.

870
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,080
Speaker 3: And a lot of people, you know, mocked me when

871
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,280
Speaker 3: I said I felt at the end of the regular

872
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 3: season Yoka should have won a third straight MVP and

873
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 3: beats a great player, you know, the league scoring. Now

874
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 3: you can say maybe he was due, but the most

875
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:04,840
Speaker 3: valuable player has been Jokic.

876
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:08,240
Speaker 2: And we don't get to see that much Denver Nuggets.

877
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 3: But you saw this last series and he is right

878
00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 3: now the most valuable player of these playoffs. But the Lakers,

879
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 3: I still think have a great opportunity. And we said

880
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,960
Speaker 3: this even before the season began this season as far

881
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 3: as the Lakers are concerned, Remember this is a team

882
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:25,759
Speaker 3: that was thirty three and forty nine last year. Yeah,

883
00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 3: this is a team with eleven games to go in

884
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 3: the regular season. This year, we're in the eleventh seed.

885
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:33,200
Speaker 3: I mean, they're that close to not even making it

886
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:37,360
Speaker 3: into the play in round. But from the get go,

887
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 3: it's simply this the health of Anthony Davis. If Anthony

888
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 3: Davis is healthy, it changes the whole dynamic of the team.

889
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 3: And I will still say, based on what I've seen

890
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,839
Speaker 3: in the playoffs so far and what I really know

891
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:54,719
Speaker 3: to be the truth. When we talk about duos in

892
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 3: this league when healthy, when playing their A game, which

893
00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:01,239
Speaker 3: both these guys obviously still can do, that's the best

894
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 3: due in the league is Lebron James and Anthony Davis. Yeah,

895
00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 3: there is no duo that can top that duo in

896
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 3: this league when they're both playing their A game. And

897
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:12,399
Speaker 3: by the way, they logged a lot of minutes. Even

898
00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,920
Speaker 3: in that last game, these two guys forty three minutes

899
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 3: for Lebron age thirty eight.

900
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:18,640
Speaker 2: But they get the break that series is not going

901
00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 2: to start until Tuesday.

902
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 5: We when we look at Celtics seventy six ers, and

903
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:27,359
Speaker 5: I'll tell you what, the Celtics changed up their look

904
00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 5: and it benefited them. In Game six, they really had

905
00:46:30,160 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 5: no answers left for Harden and Embiid and then they

906
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,240
Speaker 5: went back to that double big look with Williams and Horford,

907
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 5: and you know, I mean they dominated. I mean they

908
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:49,240
Speaker 5: kind of flummixed and frustrated the Sixers. And so when

909
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,279
Speaker 5: we're looking at Game seven, you know there's gonna be

910
00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 5: a CounterPunch to the punch. I'm curious what the Sixers

911
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,480
Speaker 5: do with that information. They've had time to think about it.

912
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,719
Speaker 5: But when you switch something up tactically and you show

913
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:05,399
Speaker 5: a different look than anybody seen from the Celtics all

914
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:08,080
Speaker 5: postseason long. Now, granted they did run this a little

915
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:11,640
Speaker 5: bit in the regular season. They were famous for it

916
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,680
Speaker 5: last year, but this was a new look per this

917
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:18,479
Speaker 5: year and especially in this postseason run that Boston's had.

918
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:23,040
Speaker 5: It was it worked, it worked, so this might be

919
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:26,360
Speaker 5: it like that, that may be the answer to their prayers,

920
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,480
Speaker 5: whatever they were, because it looked like they were out

921
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:30,319
Speaker 5: of answers coming into Game six.

922
00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,399
Speaker 3: All right, if you're the Sixers, this game comes down

923
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 3: to James Harden, simple as that. What he did in

924
00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,879
Speaker 3: Game one without himbid forty five points, winning that game

925
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:40,319
Speaker 3: on the road against Boston. What he did in Game

926
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 3: four with the forty two points when they had to

927
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:46,960
Speaker 3: win that game, that's it. I mean, if you look

928
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,719
Speaker 3: at his numbers in Game six, awful, just awful. He

929
00:47:50,760 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 3: couldn't shoot the ball straight. If I'm the Philadelphia seventy

930
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,400
Speaker 3: six ers, And this is, by the way, advice to

931
00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:59,120
Speaker 3: a coach that has been notorious for his failures in

932
00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,600
Speaker 3: the postseason, Doctor Rivers, Doc.

933
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:02,680
Speaker 2: Listen to me.

934
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:06,200
Speaker 3: Your offensive game plan at the outset of this game

935
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:10,760
Speaker 3: is to get James Harden engaged ISO. He is best

936
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:14,000
Speaker 3: when he dominates the basketball. That's just the way it is.

937
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,399
Speaker 3: I know, you have the league's MVP there and Beat

938
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:19,200
Speaker 3: will find his way, but you have got to get

939
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,799
Speaker 3: James Harden engaged offensively. He's got to feel like he

940
00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,600
Speaker 3: has control. When he has that control where you can

941
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:28,040
Speaker 3: go to the hoop pick up fouls. We've seen it

942
00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:31,239
Speaker 3: in this series a couple of times against the Celtics,

943
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:34,960
Speaker 3: that is the formula for Philadelphia to win. So if

944
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:41,400
Speaker 3: he is you know, basically absent in that first quarter offensively.

945
00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 2: They're gonna lose this game.

946
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:46,200
Speaker 3: They've got to get Harden on his game early and

947
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:48,120
Speaker 3: keep feeding James Harden.

948
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,560
Speaker 2: Forget him Beat, go with Harden.

949
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 5: I mean, I understand what you're saying, but history could

950
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 5: repeat itself. I mean, James Harden is one of the

951
00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 5: faces of postseason failures. You know you just mentioned Doc Rivers.

952
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 5: But if there's one thing that James Harden is famous

953
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,960
Speaker 5: for at this point in his career, it's the fact

954
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 5: that it hasn't worked out for him in these moments.

955
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,719
Speaker 5: So I don't know. I mean, I hear you and

956
00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 5: it seems to make sense. But there are certain players

957
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 5: where the lights are on and the moment gets real big,

958
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 5: they shrink, And do you want to put the game plan,

959
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,840
Speaker 5: even if just for a half, all on Harden's shoulders,

960
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:28,040
Speaker 5: who in the past hasn't been able to meet the moment.

961
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 5: That's a tough call. Embiid, is your reigning MVP in

962
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:35,960
Speaker 5: terms of job security? If I'm doc and I'm thinking,

963
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:40,080
Speaker 5: what would I rather answer for in the postgame media

964
00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:43,400
Speaker 5: if this goes wrong? And I know that's a loser's mentality,

965
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 5: but that's also somebody's preserving their ability to keep their

966
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:50,319
Speaker 5: job mentality. What would I rather answer questions? Hey, so

967
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:53,080
Speaker 5: Harden was ice cold from three and in the second

968
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 5: half he kept feeding him and featuring him. Why'd you

969
00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,759
Speaker 5: make that decision? Or Hey, embiid had a slow night.

970
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 5: It looked like the two big lineup from the Celtics

971
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,760
Speaker 5: who shutting them down in the paint. But you guys

972
00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 5: continue to feed him. Why'd you do that? I'd rather

973
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,680
Speaker 5: answer them beat questions. I'd rather answer them beat questions

974
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,279
Speaker 5: because he's the raining MVP, because then I get to

975
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:16,759
Speaker 5: say because I'm going to feature the ragning MVP's that's

976
00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,200
Speaker 5: my job as the head coach. He's our best player,

977
00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:21,480
Speaker 5: so I'm going to give him the basketball.

978
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 2: I agree with you on James Harden.

979
00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 3: I mean, the record is what it is, but from

980
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,799
Speaker 3: what I've seen in this series and him going off

981
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,640
Speaker 3: in games one and four of this series, that to me,

982
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,160
Speaker 3: for whatever reason against Again, it's all about matchups, right,

983
00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:38,879
Speaker 3: It's about your opponent and what's the best thing in

984
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:42,560
Speaker 3: that matchup. The Sixers have been at their best in

985
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,719
Speaker 3: this series when James Harden is dominating. So I've got

986
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:48,279
Speaker 3: to figure out a way to have him dominate. By

Speaker 3: if you're looking for job security, don't be an NBA

992
00:51:06,080 --> 00:51:11,040
Speaker 3: head coach. Why are so many successful NBA coaches walking

993
00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:14,160
Speaker 3: the plank? We'll tell you. This is Fox Sports Sunday,

994
00:51:14,800 --> 00:51:18,960
Speaker 3: Steve Harbman and Rich Arburger. This is Fox Sports Sunday.

995
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 3: We are live from the Tiraq dot com studios. Yesterday,

996
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:27,920
Speaker 3: it was actually during a commercial break, Rich Bucky and

997
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:31,720
Speaker 3: I were sitting here and I don't know, I turned

998
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:33,840
Speaker 3: him and I said, how does Monny Williams still have

999
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:34,279
Speaker 3: a job?

1000
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,760
Speaker 2: And the reason I said that was is that we've seen.

1001
00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:41,719
Speaker 3: All these coaches fired and oh yeah, last time, we

1002
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:44,440
Speaker 3: just saw the Phoenix Suns. They got humiliated on their

1003
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,760
Speaker 3: home court to get knocked out by the Denver Nuggets,

1004
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:51,319
Speaker 3: and it just seemed like, how does this guy still

1005
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:55,560
Speaker 3: have a job? And like less than an hour later,

1006
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:58,480
Speaker 3: breaking news, Monnie Williams has been fired by the Phoenix Suns.

1007
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:02,040
Speaker 3: This guy who was the NBA's Coach of the Year

1008
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:05,840
Speaker 3: last year. Suns had the best regular season record a

1009
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 3: year ago. So let's look at this now. So over

1010
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 3: the last couple of years, we've had the three of

1011
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 3: the last four NBA championship coaches fired. Yep, and now

1012
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:22,480
Speaker 3: the reigning NBA coach of the Year fired. That's that's

1013
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 3: a lot of damage done. Now, you and I have

1014
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,840
Speaker 3: had the conversations about just the value of these coaches.

1015
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:31,920
Speaker 3: Apparently now there's none. Now the Sun situation is a

1016
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:34,960
Speaker 3: little different new ownership. I can only imagine what it

1017
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,560
Speaker 3: was like for him to be sitting there on the

1018
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:41,160
Speaker 3: court at home, watching his team get blown out, and

1019
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,520
Speaker 3: then after the game, Honey, Williams said, this is on me.

1020
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:47,520
Speaker 3: He said, I have to take the hit here because

1021
00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,399
Speaker 3: I did not get my team ready for this game. Well,

1022
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 3: now you made it easy for the new owner to say, well,

1023
00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 3: since you're taking blame, fine, you made it easy for

1024
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:59,719
Speaker 3: me to fire you. So now we're hearing Mark Jackson's

1025
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:03,120
Speaker 3: back in the mix. JJ Reddick is being a higher

1026
00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 3: or being an interview for coaching jobs.

1027
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,280
Speaker 2: Obviously you have all these other guys like Monty Williams

1028
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:12,719
Speaker 2: and Nick Nurse and Budenholzer and Vogel, all these championship

1029
00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:16,600
Speaker 2: coaches out there available. Why I have a coach at all?

1030
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:18,200
Speaker 2: And that's what I'm trying to get.

1031
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:21,960
Speaker 3: I mean, where's their accountability, where's their input?

1032
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:26,160
Speaker 2: What is their actual value to these NBA teams.

1033
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,960
Speaker 5: It's a great question, and it's one that I question

1034
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:32,680
Speaker 5: all the time, not only in the NBA but also

1035
00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:37,880
Speaker 5: in Major League Baseball. The more the more you investigate

1036
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:42,360
Speaker 5: exactly what these managers do and what they're responsible for

1037
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 5: in Baseball. And the more you look at what NBA

1038
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:48,359
Speaker 5: coaches are asked to do and what what they what

1039
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:55,319
Speaker 5: they actually spend their time doing, it's it's basically a liaison.

1040
00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:59,279
Speaker 5: It's almost like a media relations person, you know, or

1041
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 5: you know, a couple of different people tied up into one.

1042
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:05,279
Speaker 5: They are the player facing arm of the front office

1043
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:08,880
Speaker 5: that has to explain things that are happening at the

1044
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:12,600
Speaker 5: general manager level, at the front office level to the players.

1045
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 5: They are the player's arm to the media to address

1046
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:20,960
Speaker 5: certain topics, headlines, things that players don't want to discuss

1047
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:24,399
Speaker 5: for themselves. Somebody else can do the dirty work for them.

1048
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:28,240
Speaker 5: They play armchair therapists with players, you know, trying to help,

1049
00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 5: you know, mess these personalities and combine things. But in

1050
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,760
Speaker 5: terms of actually coaching or managing, and I'm talking about

1051
00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 5: both of these sports NBA major League Baseball, they've been

1052
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:43,800
Speaker 5: completely defanked. Players in the NBA don't listen to coaches.

1053
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,680
Speaker 5: Coaches listen to players in Major League Baseball, players don't

1054
00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:51,399
Speaker 5: listen to managers. Players have their own hitting coaches, They

1055
00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:55,080
Speaker 5: have their outside council for everything they need, or pitching

1056
00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:57,680
Speaker 5: coaches for everything they need. You know, sometimes they may

1057
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 5: pick up something from a coaching Steff, There's no question that.

1058
00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:03,920
Speaker 5: But then also, the front office is making all of

1059
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:08,320
Speaker 5: the strategic decisions at the field level in Major League Baseball,

1060
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,280
Speaker 5: So what are these coaches doing. They're liaisons.

1061
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:16,920
Speaker 3: Interesting you mentioned about baseball and basketball different on the

1062
00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:18,480
Speaker 3: professional ranks in the NFL.

1063
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:19,239
Speaker 2: Think about this.

1064
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:23,680
Speaker 3: Back in the day, it was not that uncommon to

1065
00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:28,120
Speaker 3: have player managers or player coaches in the NBA. Dave

1066
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:30,400
Speaker 3: de Busher, the Hall of Famer best known for his

1067
00:55:30,480 --> 00:55:33,160
Speaker 3: Knick days in the seventies, came up with the Pistons

1068
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 3: and was hired as the player coach in his twenties.

1069
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:39,279
Speaker 2: He was the player coach of the Detroit Pistons when

1070
00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 2: he was in his twenties. Bill Russell's last three years

1071
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,799
Speaker 2: with the Celtics, he was the coach of the team

1072
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:48,480
Speaker 2: and obviously their player. You don't see player coaches in

1073
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:52,080
Speaker 2: the NFL. That's never happened, all right, very separate situation.

1074
00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:53,920
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's not.

1075
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:57,920
Speaker 3: I mean when I I mean, let's use the Lakers

1076
00:55:57,920 --> 00:55:58,760
Speaker 3: as an example.

1077
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:02,239
Speaker 2: Right, Not only do you have coaches now, but you

1078
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:05,720
Speaker 2: have all these assistant coaches. In fact, most NBA teams

1079
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:07,040
Speaker 2: have two rows of coaches.

1080
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you have the guys on the bench and

1081
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,640
Speaker 3: then there's coaches sitting behind them. Almost every team has this,

1082
00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:15,399
Speaker 3: like that second row where you know the head coach

1083
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:18,080
Speaker 3: might be turning around for something. I'm like, why is

1084
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:22,200
Speaker 3: this necessary? If you have let's say a Lebron James.

1085
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 3: And maybe Lebron wouldn't want to do it, but let's

1086
00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:27,760
Speaker 3: just say theoretically he was approached about this. Who better

1087
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:31,080
Speaker 3: to understand what's happening out on the court, good or

1088
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 3: bad than your leader on the court, right, I.

1089
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:36,680
Speaker 2: Mean, who would better know?

1090
00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:43,400
Speaker 3: And so I'm amazed that we don't see somebody stepping

1091
00:56:43,480 --> 00:56:45,919
Speaker 3: up and saying, you know, it worked in the day.

1092
00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:49,040
Speaker 3: Lenny Wilkins, another Hall of Famer, was a player coach.

1093
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,400
Speaker 3: This was not all that uncommon back in the day.

1094
00:56:52,880 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 3: Why somebody hasn't approached the idea. You could still have

1095
00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 3: an assistant or two on the bench. Maybe they could

1096
00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:02,120
Speaker 3: seize observations, but as far as huddling up saying, hey,

1097
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:02,680
Speaker 3: we need.

1098
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:03,080
Speaker 2: A time out.

1099
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:06,280
Speaker 3: Right now, I'm on the court, things are not going well.

1100
00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:09,280
Speaker 3: I am amazed that we haven't seen at least one

1101
00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:11,960
Speaker 3: team step them and say, let's give it a shot

1102
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,840
Speaker 3: and see how it works instead of bringing in somebody

1103
00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:17,919
Speaker 3: else paying them millions of dollars. And in the end,

1104
00:57:18,120 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 3: when a team doesn't shoot well or not rebounding well, well,

1105
00:57:21,560 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 3: he's not his fault. The guys weren't making three I'm

1106
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 3: trying to again figure out exactly what function they actually

1107
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:34,360
Speaker 3: have in terms of winning and losing in this case

1108
00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:34,920
Speaker 3: the NBA.

1109
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:38,600
Speaker 5: Look, I think that they have more of an impact

1110
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:42,600
Speaker 5: than baseball managers, do you know? And actually you can

1111
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:46,600
Speaker 5: really sort of determine that by looking at salaries. Managerial

1112
00:57:46,680 --> 00:57:49,640
Speaker 5: salaries in Major League Baseball are at an all time low.

1113
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,040
Speaker 5: These guys aren't making what they used to make. There

1114
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:55,000
Speaker 5: are several managers making less than a million dollars to

1115
00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:58,360
Speaker 5: manage one hundred and sixty two games. All right, you know,

1116
00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:01,280
Speaker 5: you look at NBA coaches, I mean, are they making

1117
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:04,320
Speaker 5: small potato dollars? No, but I think the top coach

1118
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,560
Speaker 5: is making somewhere in the range of eight million dollars

1119
00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:09,040
Speaker 5: a year. Look at the NFL, I mean, these salaries

1120
00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:12,160
Speaker 5: are approaching twelve fifteen million dollars per year for these

1121
00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:15,160
Speaker 5: best coaches. And the reason is very clear because you

1122
00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:17,360
Speaker 5: need to have a competent head coach to have a

1123
00:58:17,400 --> 00:58:20,280
Speaker 5: great football team at the NFL level. That is not

1124
00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:24,160
Speaker 5: the case with the NBA at all. It is not

1125
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:27,880
Speaker 5: the case with Major League Baseball at all. You have

1126
00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:32,520
Speaker 5: a brand new NBA coach, for example, Frank Vogel handling

1127
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:39,240
Speaker 5: a pandemic win a championship. I mean, was it Frank Vogel? No, No, wasn't.

1128
00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:41,840
Speaker 5: But look, he'll get another job at some point, or

1129
00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 5: it will be on the bench somewhere, and it'll get

1130
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,600
Speaker 5: paid a lot of money. And you know, I think,

1131
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 5: is it necessary. Yeah, it's still is necessary because there

1132
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:55,720
Speaker 5: are those those coaches like Greg Popovich or Steve Kerr

1133
00:58:56,320 --> 00:59:00,440
Speaker 5: who have superstars who are willing to give and heed

1134
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:03,280
Speaker 5: the power over to the coach and give them an

1135
00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:05,760
Speaker 5: opportunity to truly be a coach. That's what happened with

1136
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:10,160
Speaker 5: Steph Curry. He's inarguably the most talented player with Golden State,

1137
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:13,240
Speaker 5: and he's given Steve. He's empowered Steve Kerr to be

1138
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:16,680
Speaker 5: a great coach. That happened with Tim Duncan and the Spurs.

1139
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 5: He empowered Greg Popovich. Now you saw what happened when

1140
00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:24,560
Speaker 5: things got squirrellly with Kawhi Leonard, all of a sudden,

1141
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:27,560
Speaker 5: the Spurs had a lot of problems. It didn't look

1142
00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:30,320
Speaker 5: as great as it used to. Why Well, it's because

1143
00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 5: Kawhi was exerting the leverage that almost every other NBA

1144
00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:38,400
Speaker 5: star has exerted on their franchise that Steph Curry has

1145
00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:40,680
Speaker 5: refused to do the Golden State Warriors, which in my

1146
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 5: opinion has led to a lot of success for them,

1147
00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:44,800
Speaker 5: because I do think Steve Kurr is a good coach.

1148
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:47,920
Speaker 5: But once Greg Popovich lost the locker room, i e.

1149
00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:51,480
Speaker 5: His star, Kawhi Leonard, things really started to vanish in

1150
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:53,080
Speaker 5: terms of their dominance.

1151
00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:55,960
Speaker 3: All right, once again we are brought to by Progressive Insurance.

1152
00:59:55,960 --> 00:59:59,360
Speaker 3: Progressive makes bundling easy and affordable. Get a multi policy

Speaker 3: moore all your protection in one place, bundlin save at

1155
01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:12,160
Speaker 3: Progressive dot Com. Yeah again, when we talk about basketball

1156
01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:15,560
Speaker 3: in particular, because again you have five guys on the court,

1157
01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:21,760
Speaker 3: and more than any other sport by far, a single player.

1158
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:26,040
Speaker 3: One player can change the whole dynamic of a franchise,

1159
01:00:26,400 --> 01:00:28,680
Speaker 3: and we've seen it time and again you know, when

1160
01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:32,480
Speaker 3: Kareem Abdul Jabbar came into the NBA, he was joining

1161
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:36,400
Speaker 3: a second year expansion team, second year expansion team. A

1162
01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:39,680
Speaker 3: year later, they're winning the NBA championship, just like that,

1163
01:00:40,080 --> 01:00:43,320
Speaker 3: because of one single player. Look at san Antonio. There's

1164
01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:48,240
Speaker 3: a reason why san Antonio is fishing for that topic

1165
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:50,680
Speaker 3: in the draft because this kid, I can't it's got

1166
01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 3: a lot of letters in his name. But everyone's hyping

1167
01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:55,520
Speaker 3: up this seven to four kid as like the next

1168
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:58,520
Speaker 3: it guy. Right, But going back to their drafting of

1169
01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:01,280
Speaker 3: David Robinson is a future and then you know, having

1170
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:03,760
Speaker 3: a bad year just in time to get Tim Duncan

1171
01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:05,880
Speaker 3: with the number one overall pick, and.

1172
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:08,200
Speaker 2: The next thing you know, they go from ulso rans

1173
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:08,960
Speaker 2: to champions.

1174
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:14,160
Speaker 3: But I just I again these coaches and by the way,

1175
01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:15,760
Speaker 3: just I went on the other side. I want to

1176
01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:19,520
Speaker 3: get into this Mark Jackson situation because our rumors flying

1177
01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:22,440
Speaker 3: out there, which job is Mark Jackson apparently up for?

1178
01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:26,760
Speaker 3: It's the Bucks, the Bucks, the Milwaukee Bucks. The curious

1179
01:01:26,920 --> 01:01:30,640
Speaker 3: case of Mark Jackson. But first let's find out what

1180
01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:32,040
Speaker 3: it's trending right now.

1181
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:32,800
Speaker 9: She was on.

1182
01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:36,760
Speaker 2: A ginger shot high the last time we checked in

1183
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:40,560
Speaker 2: on her Montie, are you okay now better?

1184
01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:40,840
Speaker 1: Now?

1185
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:44,800
Speaker 4: I was sweaty, I was a little, a little blinded.

1186
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:47,320
Speaker 4: It just you know, it took a toll on my body.

1187
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 2: Shay, they did that to you.

1188
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:49,240
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1189
01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:51,160
Speaker 4: Well I asked him to bring me one, and I

1190
01:01:51,160 --> 01:01:52,880
Speaker 4: thought it was just gonna be like a little packaged

1191
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,280
Speaker 4: bottle like they have in most places. He brought like

1192
01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,440
Speaker 4: a like they made it fresh and it was like

1193
01:01:57,840 --> 01:01:58,600
Speaker 4: half of the cup.

1194
01:01:58,720 --> 01:01:59,840
Speaker 6: It wasn't like a little one.

1195
01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:02,320
Speaker 4: And uh he took it with me too. So we

1196
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:04,400
Speaker 4: died together. At least we did it together.

1197
01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:07,520
Speaker 5: Well, you survived that update. But while we were talking,

1198
01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:10,640
Speaker 5: you kept turning your microphone off and like wiping your eyes.

1199
01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 5: She's gonna act, Steve.

1200
01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:14,000
Speaker 2: It's gonna happen.

1201
01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:19,600
Speaker 3: We've worked together for a long time here. I don't

1202
01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:22,560
Speaker 3: remember you partaken in that kind of I like.

1203
01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:24,560
Speaker 4: Ginger shots every now and then I try. I mean

1204
01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:28,000
Speaker 4: they're they're tough, but you know, it cleans out you're inside,

1205
01:02:28,040 --> 01:02:30,040
Speaker 4: and it makes you feel good after the end of it.

1206
01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:33,520
Speaker 4: Like it was rough, but no, I feel healthier. I'm ready.

1207
01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 4: You're ready for the day is deathbed and again I'm

1208
01:02:37,640 --> 01:02:38,320
Speaker 4: back and ready.

1209
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 5: You've just asked you that question, like like a concerned parent.

1210
01:02:41,680 --> 01:02:44,120
Speaker 5: He's like, Monsy, you've never behaved this way.

1211
01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:45,920
Speaker 2: No, I mean I don't remember this.

1212
01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:49,600
Speaker 4: No, I'm just coding my stomach for you know, the

1213
01:02:49,640 --> 01:02:50,919
Speaker 4: actual tequila later.

1214
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:53,720
Speaker 3: Well, the new dynamics of the studio is that we

1215
01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:56,240
Speaker 3: get to see now you may have been partaken in

1216
01:02:56,280 --> 01:02:58,360
Speaker 3: this kind of activities and we would never have known,

1217
01:02:58,480 --> 01:02:59,360
Speaker 3: never know, right.

1218
01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:02,080
Speaker 4: No, I can honestly say that was my first ginger

1219
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:03,560
Speaker 4: shot in studio.

1220
01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:08,080
Speaker 2: But when we see in tears and they say it's

1221
01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:10,760
Speaker 2: a gateway, gateway, that's it. Yeah, Like, no, did some

1222
01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:13,200
Speaker 2: of these knuckle lets say something mean or what happened?

1223
01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:15,080
Speaker 6: You know what I'm gonna do next time. I'm gonna

1224
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:16,760
Speaker 6: make all of us have it all.

1225
01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:19,480
Speaker 4: At the same time, and we're gonna see who handles

1226
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:23,640
Speaker 4: it back header, guys, we're about an hour away from

1227
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:27,240
Speaker 4: Game seven between the Philadelphia seventy six ers and the

1228
01:03:27,280 --> 01:03:32,720
Speaker 4: Boston Celtics were hosting Game seven. WOJ of ESPN tweeted

1229
01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:34,560
Speaker 4: this about an hour ago or so.

1230
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:35,880
Speaker 6: This is what he said.

1231
01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 4: NBA's officiating game report shared with teams from Game six

1232
01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:48,120
Speaker 4: revealed a significant disparity thirteen officiating errors disadvantaging seventy six

1233
01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:54,520
Speaker 4: Ers to four disadvantaging Boston. Those can include calls and

1234
01:03:54,680 --> 01:04:00,560
Speaker 4: non calls. And then I guess, mister head coach of

1235
01:04:00,600 --> 01:04:03,360
Speaker 4: the seventy six ers, where is it, Doc Rivers?

1236
01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:03,840
Speaker 6: Thank you?

1237
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:08,320
Speaker 4: Jared Weiss of NBA The Athletic has a quote from

1238
01:04:08,360 --> 01:04:12,280
Speaker 4: Doc Rivers twenty minutes ago and analytically, we won the

1239
01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:13,600
Speaker 4: game by twenty or whatever.

1240
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,600
Speaker 2: No comment, huh okay.

1241
01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:23,680
Speaker 3: Unfortunately for Doc Rivers postseason ledger, which includes three series

1242
01:04:23,680 --> 01:04:24,640
Speaker 3: in which he blew three.

1243
01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:27,800
Speaker 2: To one series league unprecedented. Yes, in the history of

1244
01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:31,360
Speaker 2: the NBA. Yes, when you're starting to already make excuses

1245
01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:32,800
Speaker 2: before the game, it's no bwent.

1246
01:04:33,200 --> 01:04:36,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is no bueno. But you know who is bueno?

1247
01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:40,400
Speaker 4: Josh Naylor of the Guardians. The last three games, he

1248
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:43,440
Speaker 4: has hit a three run homer in the eighth inning

1249
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:47,280
Speaker 4: and the Guardians have officially beat the Angels four to three.

1250
01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:49,960
Speaker 4: He is on fire like a turkey, right, That's what

1251
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:51,200
Speaker 4: happens in in bowling.

1252
01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:51,600
Speaker 6: Bowling.

1253
01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 4: Three in a row, three run homers, eighth inning, Guardians

1254
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:55,800
Speaker 4: beat the Angels.

1255
01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:57,920
Speaker 6: The Royals and the Brewers are tied at one apiece.

1256
01:04:57,960 --> 01:05:00,480
Speaker 4: Top of the second inning, Astros boo over the White

1257
01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:02,479
Speaker 4: Sox three zero. They're about to start the second inning.

1258
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:04,640
Speaker 4: Twins up on the cuffs one zero. Top of the

1259
01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:07,320
Speaker 4: second as well. Tiger's on the scoreboard, but it doesn't matter.

1260
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:09,840
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter. Mariners are up three to one. Bottom

1261
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:12,120
Speaker 4: of the third inning. The Braves scored first, but the

1262
01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:13,680
Speaker 4: Blue Jays have answered.

1263
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:15,280
Speaker 6: Three to two. Is the score. Top of the third inning.

1264
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:16,000
Speaker 6: The Rays.

1265
01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:18,960
Speaker 4: We're beating the Yankees, not anymore. New York on top,

1266
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:21,120
Speaker 4: four to three. Top of the fourth inning. Pirates still

1267
01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:23,840
Speaker 4: shutting out the Orioles four zero, top of the fourth inning.

1268
01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:26,600
Speaker 4: And finally, yesterday's game between the Mets and the Nationals

1269
01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:29,560
Speaker 4: that had a four hour rain delay. Nationals have officially

1270
01:05:29,600 --> 01:05:31,240
Speaker 4: won three to two against the Mets.

1271
01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:32,280
Speaker 6: Back to you guys.

1272
01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:34,800
Speaker 2: All right, so, Manci, you might want to explain this

1273
01:05:35,080 --> 01:05:37,880
Speaker 2: uh tweet that I got an hour ago. You know,

1274
01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:41,280
Speaker 2: I'm suddenly discovering my Twitter account after yesterday.

1275
01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:42,880
Speaker 4: Right now, I'm not even gonna mention that you don't

1276
01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:44,680
Speaker 4: follow me, but that's fine, go ahead, go ahead.

1277
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:46,440
Speaker 2: I'm going to start following you, Mike. I'll do that

1278
01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:46,919
Speaker 2: right now.

1279
01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:51,240
Speaker 3: By the way, there's one person in this building I

1280
01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:54,280
Speaker 3: follow that doesn't follow me, and that's Isaac Loan from

1281
01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:55,440
Speaker 3: I Love, I.

1282
01:05:56,360 --> 01:05:58,240
Speaker 2: Love, but he doesn't follow me. I believe.

1283
01:05:58,480 --> 01:05:59,240
Speaker 6: I'm not surprised.

1284
01:05:59,360 --> 01:06:02,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, you might even be mated. All right, So we

1285
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:03,880
Speaker 2: got this one here.

1286
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:06,200
Speaker 3: It says you can tell one of two things is

1287
01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:12,080
Speaker 3: true at Monsey. Either lives at Ormberger and at Canna Hartmont,

1288
01:06:12,400 --> 01:06:15,920
Speaker 3: or she is a great actor and is a Malley

1289
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:17,160
Speaker 3: Award winner.

1290
01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:20,960
Speaker 2: Both could be true. Okay, so what he meant to

1291
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:24,920
Speaker 2: write was loves yes, she either loves us or hates us.

1292
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:28,520
Speaker 5: And then the Malleys. I believe that's Ben Malor's show, right.

1293
01:06:30,360 --> 01:06:30,480
Speaker 4: One.

1294
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:32,440
Speaker 6: I won a Malley Awards.

1295
01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:32,880
Speaker 5: Oh he did?

1296
01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:33,280
Speaker 2: For what?

1297
01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:34,800
Speaker 5: What? What was the dic?

1298
01:06:35,080 --> 01:06:35,560
Speaker 1: Where were you?

1299
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:39,840
Speaker 4: I beat out Bryan Finley for the best fill in

1300
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:41,640
Speaker 4: for Eddie Garcia?

1301
01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:44,600
Speaker 6: I did?

1302
01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:45,560
Speaker 2: I want?

1303
01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:46,000
Speaker 6: I want?

1304
01:06:46,000 --> 01:06:51,400
Speaker 4: It's like the Oscars, the Eddie Garcia best filla in mons.

1305
01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:54,680
Speaker 2: You have a new follower, check it out a new

1306
01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:57,400
Speaker 2: follower on Twitter? There you go?

1307
01:06:57,520 --> 01:06:57,680
Speaker 8: Right?

1308
01:06:58,080 --> 01:06:59,480
Speaker 2: How was I not following?

1309
01:06:59,600 --> 01:06:59,800
Speaker 6: Listen?

1310
01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:03,320
Speaker 3: I don't almost anyone that follows me I follow them clearly,

1311
01:07:03,360 --> 01:07:06,720
Speaker 3: not me, except for Isaac Loncrime uses to follow me.

1312
01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:09,400
Speaker 2: All right, Well, Montzie. Thank you very much.

1313
01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:13,720
Speaker 3: We are back Mark Jackson getting an interviewed for the

1314
01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:19,600
Speaker 3: Milwaukee Bucks job. Mark Jackson's coaching legacy is one of

1315
01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:24,640
Speaker 3: the most baffling in NBA history because we see coaches

1316
01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:28,360
Speaker 3: get recycled constantly if they have any measure of success.

1317
01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:32,000
Speaker 3: When he joined the Golden State Warriors as their coach,

1318
01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:35,760
Speaker 3: his first year, they won twenty three games. Two years

1319
01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:38,160
Speaker 3: later they won fifty one games.

1320
01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:40,880
Speaker 2: Now they got bounced in the first round of the playoffs,

1321
01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:43,400
Speaker 2: but you could see this was a team on the cuss.

1322
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,000
Speaker 2: He had sort of introduced the world to the idea of.

1323
01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:49,600
Speaker 3: The Splash Brothers with Steph Curry and Klay Thompson, and

1324
01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:53,000
Speaker 3: they were there like they were suddenly in the mix.

1325
01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:55,680
Speaker 3: He went from twenty three wins to forty seven wins

1326
01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:59,200
Speaker 3: to fifty one wins. He gets fired, they bring in

1327
01:07:59,280 --> 01:08:02,880
Speaker 3: Steve Kerr. The rest is history with the Warriors. But still,

1328
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:05,480
Speaker 3: at some point you have to recognize the fact that

1329
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:09,840
Speaker 3: what he built to a large extent is eventually what

1330
01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:14,280
Speaker 3: the Warriors used that formula to win multiple championships. So

1331
01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:18,160
Speaker 3: you would think, because he's had interviews before, this is

1332
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:21,000
Speaker 3: not the first time that he's had interviews. Obviously, he's

1333
01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:24,519
Speaker 3: been very visible with his broadcast work over the years, but.

1334
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:27,240
Speaker 2: That was twenty fourteen. That was a lot. That was

1335
01:08:27,360 --> 01:08:30,639
Speaker 2: nine years ago that he got canned. He has been

1336
01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:35,320
Speaker 2: seeking coaching jobs. He's been interviewed for coaching jobs, and

1337
01:08:35,360 --> 01:08:38,439
Speaker 2: he hasn't gotten a coaching job. I don't know what's

1338
01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:41,320
Speaker 2: going on in these interviews with Mark Jackson. You know,

1339
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:43,679
Speaker 2: he's a strong minded guy. We hear that when he's

1340
01:08:43,680 --> 01:08:45,920
Speaker 2: doing his broadcast. He and Bank Gundy I think make

1341
01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:48,360
Speaker 2: a pretty good deal because they'll butt heads a little bit.

1342
01:08:48,439 --> 01:08:51,519
Speaker 2: Yeah like it. But I'm just curious what happens when

1343
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:55,120
Speaker 2: Mark Jackson gets into an interview, because he obviously wants

1344
01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:56,920
Speaker 2: to be a coach or the rise, he wouldn't interview

1345
01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:59,760
Speaker 2: for these jobs and no one has hired him.

1346
01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:07,320
Speaker 5: Well, there are certain personalities that cannot accept being under

1347
01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:12,160
Speaker 5: anybody else's thumb, and that way of thinking used to

1348
01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:16,519
Speaker 5: work really well. Like you needed a Bobby Knight, you

1349
01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:20,800
Speaker 5: needed a coach k You needed a type a personality,

1350
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:24,360
Speaker 5: somebody who is going to take the reins. You needed

1351
01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:27,080
Speaker 5: a Phil Jackson who maybe had a little bit of

1352
01:09:27,120 --> 01:09:30,479
Speaker 5: a softer touch. But Phil was in charge. Yeah, Phil

1353
01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:35,360
Speaker 5: was in charge. You needed a guy who truly dominated

1354
01:09:35,560 --> 01:09:38,320
Speaker 5: pat Riley, you know what I mean, like somebody who

1355
01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:40,559
Speaker 5: really And I'm naming a lot of names that are

1356
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:43,439
Speaker 5: no longer coaching because times have changed. Like there are

1357
01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:45,840
Speaker 5: a lot of different persons who still have POP. Now

1358
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:49,599
Speaker 5: you still have pop, but times have changed and they

1359
01:09:49,600 --> 01:09:52,960
Speaker 5: may have steered away from pop being all that effective.

1360
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:53,559
Speaker 2: We'll see.

1361
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:57,320
Speaker 5: But this new NBA is very different than the old NBA.

1362
01:09:57,400 --> 01:10:01,719
Speaker 5: The old NBA used to the players they allowed the coach,

1363
01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:05,120
Speaker 5: and they didn't have leverage over the coach to really

1364
01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:08,680
Speaker 5: argue with how the coach wanted to coach them. But

1365
01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:11,160
Speaker 5: they allowed the coach to be empowered to make all

1366
01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:14,840
Speaker 5: the decisions and have all the control. Now, if a

1367
01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:18,120
Speaker 5: player doesn't like what a coach is doing, he'll go

1368
01:10:18,240 --> 01:10:21,280
Speaker 5: right to the front office. He'll bypass the coach, he'll

1369
01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:24,080
Speaker 5: talk to the general manager. And a lot of times

1370
01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:26,840
Speaker 5: those conversations don't even need to get to the point

1371
01:10:26,840 --> 01:10:30,559
Speaker 5: where it's like me or him. You know, the message

1372
01:10:30,560 --> 01:10:32,920
Speaker 5: has already made if they're having that conversation in the

1373
01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:36,320
Speaker 5: first place. So I don't know Mark Jackson personally, I

1374
01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 5: don't know what type of coach. He is behind closed doors.

1375
01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:42,679
Speaker 5: But if he's that type of personality, it's not gonna

1376
01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:46,960
Speaker 5: mesh well in today's NBA. But there are certain coaches

1377
01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:50,479
Speaker 5: who you hired to build a culture, like Budenholzer, clearly

1378
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:53,360
Speaker 5: in Milwaukee was that type of coach. They want to

1379
01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:56,600
Speaker 5: coach Bud to help Jannis get his first championship. He

1380
01:10:56,680 --> 01:11:01,400
Speaker 5: became an MVP underneath him. But I guess the organization

1381
01:11:01,479 --> 01:11:03,519
Speaker 5: looks at him and says, well, it's not sustainable, or

1382
01:11:03,520 --> 01:11:06,160
Speaker 5: maybe he's Giannis is losing interest in playing for a

1383
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:08,680
Speaker 5: type a personality and they want to move on to

1384
01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:12,479
Speaker 5: a more sensitive, more modern type of NBA coach, maybe

1385
01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:14,439
Speaker 5: a former player, something like that.

1386
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:17,559
Speaker 3: I understand what they're saying about changing times and everything.

1387
01:11:17,600 --> 01:11:20,000
Speaker 3: But there's another organization, by the way, still alive in

1388
01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:21,920
Speaker 3: the NBA playoffs, still run that way, and that's the

1389
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 3: Miami Heat. Pat Riley with Eric Spolstra. They have control,

1390
01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:29,800
Speaker 3: total control. I mean that was pat Riley when he

1391
01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:34,200
Speaker 3: was a coach, which by the way, didn't alienated people. Yes,

1392
01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:37,320
Speaker 3: even in the Lakers organization and with the Knicks before

1393
01:11:37,320 --> 01:11:39,559
Speaker 3: he found a home where he could have total control

1394
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:42,160
Speaker 3: of an organization on the heat and he and Eric

1395
01:11:42,160 --> 01:11:45,559
Speaker 3: Spolster have built that atmosphere. Yeah, and look at this team,

1396
01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:48,719
Speaker 3: an eight seed and they're in the Eastern Conference finals

1397
01:11:48,760 --> 01:11:52,120
Speaker 3: and Jimmy Butler is the perfect foil for them because

1398
01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:55,880
Speaker 3: he's a big game player and he is of that

1399
01:11:56,160 --> 01:11:58,320
Speaker 3: kind of mindset where he's a leader on the court

1400
01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:01,680
Speaker 3: and raises the bar for everybody on the court. So,

1401
01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:06,120
Speaker 3: I you know this idea that you can't have that

1402
01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:09,800
Speaker 3: kind of control over the players in the NBA.

1403
01:12:09,640 --> 01:12:11,919
Speaker 5: But it's a little bit of a special and unique situation.

1404
01:12:12,000 --> 01:12:14,360
Speaker 5: Outside of the Golden State Warriors, can you name and

1405
01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:17,920
Speaker 5: Steph Curry giving a lot of like the ability to

1406
01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:21,719
Speaker 5: run his team to Steve Kerr? Can you name another

1407
01:12:21,840 --> 01:12:23,840
Speaker 5: star who would be willing to do that outside of

1408
01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:26,760
Speaker 5: Jimmy Butler. No, it's very rare, So you have to

1409
01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:31,360
Speaker 5: we have two examples amongst thirty teams got stars, I mean,

1410
01:12:31,680 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 5: and Butler's a star I mean Miami. Trust me, he

1411
01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:37,400
Speaker 5: doesn't have to pay for a meal anywhere in Miami.

1412
01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:41,519
Speaker 5: Like Jimmy Butler's a star. He gives Spulstra. He endows

1413
01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:44,640
Speaker 5: him the responsibility but also the power to do what

1414
01:12:44,680 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 5: he wants to do. Kevin Love is a great second

1415
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,519
Speaker 5: banana if you're going to run in an organization this way,

1416
01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:54,000
Speaker 5: because he's not going to ruffle feathers. The same could

1417
01:12:54,040 --> 01:12:56,160
Speaker 5: be said with Klay Thompson. I don't think he wants

1418
01:12:56,200 --> 01:13:01,120
Speaker 5: that heat, so he's very cool playing sidecard Curry giving

1419
01:13:01,120 --> 01:13:03,960
Speaker 5: Steve Kerr the power the same way Butler and loved

1420
01:13:04,160 --> 01:13:06,920
Speaker 5: down there in South Beach. It's rare though Steve, like

1421
01:13:07,439 --> 01:13:10,680
Speaker 5: most of these players, including Giannis, who have ultimately a

1422
01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:13,599
Speaker 5: tremendous amount of respect for how he comports himself, it

1423
01:13:13,680 --> 01:13:17,080
Speaker 5: did sound like he was undermining Bud Oh yeah, during

1424
01:13:17,120 --> 01:13:17,800
Speaker 5: the postseason.

1425
01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:19,240
Speaker 2: He certainly didn't defend him.

1426
01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:22,960
Speaker 5: No, no, So so I don't know if Mark Jackson

1427
01:13:23,040 --> 01:13:24,599
Speaker 5: is gonna be a fit for the Bucks, who he's

1428
01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:27,880
Speaker 5: currently interviewing with. If he's that type of personality, we'll

01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:14,280

1443
01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:16,040

Speaker 3: her mommy. I do call her mom ex wife.

1452
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:44,200
Speaker 2: We're currently cohabiting with I love your life so much. Yes,

1453
01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:46,920
Speaker 2: and as I sleep on the couch with the dogs.

1454
01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:51,439
Speaker 3: If you could follow me through just the course, it's

1455
01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:54,240
Speaker 3: been really weird for me because I don't currently have

1456
01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:57,599
Speaker 3: a Monday through Friday radio gig, which is something that

1457
01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:00,559
Speaker 3: hasn't happened to me, and forever, right, Yeah, yeah, So

1458
01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:02,439
Speaker 3: you know, I'm sort of waighing my options right now

1459
01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:05,000
Speaker 3: in which direction I'm gonna go. Eventually I'll do something

1460
01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:07,679
Speaker 3: like that. But enjoying the weekends here and other things

1461
01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:10,080
Speaker 3: I've been involved with. But if you were to just

1462
01:15:10,120 --> 01:15:13,000
Speaker 3: follow me on like a typical Monday through Friday during

1463
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:15,519
Speaker 3: the day, yes, now we.

1464
01:15:15,479 --> 01:15:16,880
Speaker 5: Need to get you a reality show.

1465
01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:19,559
Speaker 3: I mean there's points during the middle of the day

1466
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:21,960
Speaker 3: when I'm like typing stats, you know, because I do

1467
01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:24,439
Speaker 3: that during the day, and then I take the dogs

1468
01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:28,880
Speaker 3: outside in our backyard and I just sort of sit there.

1469
01:15:29,320 --> 01:15:33,439
Speaker 5: There was kind of dogs and obscure an obscure mut

1470
01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:36,000
Speaker 5: maybe it's not obscure. I'm sure did okay. Box office

1471
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:39,759
Speaker 5: called Along Came Polly. It was a Ben Stiller Jennifer

1472
01:15:39,920 --> 01:15:44,160
Speaker 5: Aniston movie. There was a role played by Philip Seymour

1473
01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:47,680
Speaker 5: Hoffman Sandy Lyle. He played his best man in the

1474
01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:50,759
Speaker 5: wedding that he ended up not not going through with. Anyways,

1475
01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:53,320
Speaker 5: this guy hired a crew, a camera crew to follo

1476
01:15:53,360 --> 01:15:55,960
Speaker 5: him around and he told everybody that they were doing

1477
01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:58,400
Speaker 5: the e true Hollywood story on him back when he

1478
01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:01,320
Speaker 5: was the thing, right and he was a kid star,

1479
01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:04,000
Speaker 5: and that it was gonna revamp his career. All this stuff.

1480
01:16:04,160 --> 01:16:06,000
Speaker 5: You need to do this. You need to hire an

1481
01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:09,640
Speaker 5: independent film crew to follow you out around on a

1482
01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:13,720
Speaker 5: daily basis, and you need you then need to sell

1483
01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:17,639
Speaker 5: to a network like this because it's it's gonna work out.

1484
01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:21,080
Speaker 5: I promise you you are the most interesting person I've

1485
01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:25,320
Speaker 5: ever met. The truths about your life are the best

1486
01:16:25,320 --> 01:16:26,200
Speaker 5: part of your life.

1487
01:16:26,240 --> 01:16:28,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, bring everybody behind the curtain.

1488
01:16:28,960 --> 01:16:32,160
Speaker 3: I escape on the weekends. Here we're in the tire

1489
01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:34,600
Speaker 3: Raq dot com studios. All right, well, get off me

1490
01:16:34,680 --> 01:16:36,479
Speaker 3: and let's get on to a guy by the name

1491
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:39,519
Speaker 3: of Kevin Durant. Yes, so his coaches got fired, so

1492
01:16:39,560 --> 01:16:41,960
Speaker 3: he goes to the Phoenix Suns. They basically got their

1493
01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,840
Speaker 3: bench in order to bring in Kevin Durant as that

1494
01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:49,439
Speaker 3: missing piece to join Chris Paul and Booker and Aidan

1495
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:52,200
Speaker 3: to get the Sons over the top and win a championship.

1496
01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:55,960
Speaker 3: And instead they get blown out embarrassed in their final

1497
01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:58,840
Speaker 3: game of the season and they blow out the coach

1498
01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:03,599
Speaker 3: and I start looking at the resume of Kevin Durant

1499
01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:06,639
Speaker 3: and I got into this yesterday with Montsey, of all people.

1500
01:17:07,880 --> 01:17:09,599
Speaker 3: I will look at that I'm not looking at. He's

1501
01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:11,720
Speaker 3: an all time greats, first ballot, Hall of Famer and

1502
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:14,960
Speaker 3: everything else. Would I play some of the top ten

1503
01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:18,760
Speaker 3: players in NBA history, No, not even close. In fact,

1504
01:17:18,840 --> 01:17:21,800
Speaker 3: my point about Kevin Durant is as great an offensive

1505
01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:23,479
Speaker 3: player as he has been, he's one of the all

1506
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:25,799
Speaker 3: time greats, four time scoring champion.

1507
01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:29,720
Speaker 2: Let's look at post Warriors, Let's look at pre Warriors.

1508
01:17:30,160 --> 01:17:32,760
Speaker 2: I mean he hitched his wagonto a team coming off

1509
01:17:32,800 --> 01:17:36,200
Speaker 2: a seventy three win season. For three seasons, he went

1510
01:17:36,240 --> 01:17:39,559
Speaker 2: back to back championships. Obviously was finals MVP. I'm not

1511
01:17:39,560 --> 01:17:43,360
Speaker 2: saying he wasn't a huge contributor to those championships, but

1512
01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:46,720
Speaker 2: the idea that he wanted out and sort of have

1513
01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:50,160
Speaker 2: his own place first with the Nets, now with the Suns,

1514
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:54,000
Speaker 2: it's not working, and I don't know what it is.

1515
01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:56,599
Speaker 2: Does it meaning that he's not a talented player. No,

1516
01:17:56,640 --> 01:17:59,680
Speaker 2: of course he's a talented player, But in terms of

1517
01:17:59,720 --> 01:18:04,840
Speaker 2: his legacy and his standing with the all time greats,

1518
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:09,439
Speaker 2: in my opinion, his stock is dropping right now. I

1519
01:18:09,479 --> 01:18:11,719
Speaker 2: don't know if it's going to change next season. In Phoenix,

1520
01:18:11,960 --> 01:18:13,760
Speaker 2: they got a lot of soul searching. They got to

1521
01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:15,920
Speaker 2: get a new coach. Now, they got to figure out

1522
01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:18,479
Speaker 2: this roster. But they gutted their bench in order to

1523
01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:21,599
Speaker 2: bring in the superstar that was supposed to take him

1524
01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:25,519
Speaker 2: the next step, and it didn't happen. So I to me,

1525
01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:28,759
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant right now is one of those guys whose

1526
01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 2: stock in terms of all time legacy is dropping.

1527
01:18:32,800 --> 01:18:38,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, look he's He's won two championships. He

1528
01:18:38,800 --> 01:18:42,960
Speaker 5: was a final MVP in both. I don't see Kevin

1529
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:49,640
Speaker 5: Durant as uncementing an already great legacy. I feel like

1530
01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:52,000
Speaker 5: that's firmly in place. So I'll disagree there. But what

1531
01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:56,920
Speaker 5: I will say is the second act or maybe third

1532
01:18:56,960 --> 01:19:00,280
Speaker 5: act to his career going is going to look very

1533
01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:04,760
Speaker 5: different than the first two because he took an Oklahoma

1534
01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:08,800
Speaker 5: City Thunder team out of obscurity as his first act,

1535
01:19:09,040 --> 01:19:11,600
Speaker 5: you know, just making that place a place where you

1536
01:19:11,640 --> 01:19:14,000
Speaker 5: could you could really I mean that it wasn't an

1537
01:19:14,040 --> 01:19:16,639
Speaker 5: eppy center of the NBA, but it was a feared

1538
01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:19,080
Speaker 5: Western Conference team for a while there while he was

1539
01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:23,080
Speaker 5: playing for them. That was a truth. Moving on to

1540
01:19:23,240 --> 01:19:26,080
Speaker 5: Golden State, he proved what he knew to be true

1541
01:19:26,080 --> 01:19:29,000
Speaker 5: about himself, which was that he deserves to be a champion,

1542
01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:32,400
Speaker 5: he just needed better parts around him. And then moving

1543
01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:34,240
Speaker 5: on from there in the third act, I don't think

1544
01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:36,400
Speaker 5: it undoes what he did in the other two acts,

1545
01:19:36,680 --> 01:19:38,680
Speaker 5: but it does reveal maybe a little bit of a

1546
01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:39,720
Speaker 5: lack of awareness.

1547
01:19:39,800 --> 01:19:43,080
Speaker 3: Well again, he was the one that put the team

1548
01:19:43,120 --> 01:19:45,519
Speaker 3: together with the nets, right. I mean he brings in Kyrie,

1549
01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:49,439
Speaker 3: I mean he wanted to dictate and have control of

1550
01:19:49,479 --> 01:19:52,040
Speaker 3: these franchises, and the same thing in Phoenix. I mean

1551
01:19:52,040 --> 01:19:56,240
Speaker 3: he seemingly has pieces around him and it's not working.

1552
01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:59,360
Speaker 3: So just having players is not enough. He got to

1553
01:19:59,360 --> 01:20:01,720
Speaker 3: have leadership. You got to have direction, all right. We

1554
01:20:01,760 --> 01:20:04,840
Speaker 3: get ready for the Celtics and the Sixers Game seven.

1555
01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:08,680
Speaker 2: Happy Mother's Day. Getting ready for a.

1556
01:20:08,760 --> 01:20:13,400

1563
01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:39,920
Speaker 3: lose at home in Game five. Could they lose again

1564
01:20:39,960 --> 01:20:44,720
Speaker 3: in Game seven? It is possible. But but, but, but

1565
01:20:45,840 --> 01:20:50,960
Speaker 3: looming is the possibility of an NBA dream, and that

1566
01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:53,680
Speaker 3: is a matchup of the Los Angeles Slackers and the

1567
01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:57,160
Speaker 3: Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals. When you have two

1568
01:20:57,240 --> 01:21:02,280
Speaker 3: organizations that have dominated a league to the extent that

1569
01:21:02,320 --> 01:21:05,240
Speaker 3: the Celtics and Lakers have dominated the history of the NBA,

1570
01:21:05,960 --> 01:21:09,599
Speaker 3: and you get that opportunity because when you get a

1571
01:21:09,600 --> 01:21:12,400
Speaker 3: matchup of these two franchises. I remember in two thousand

1572
01:21:12,439 --> 01:21:16,280
Speaker 3: and eight, Rich the Lakers and Celtics are matchup in

1573
01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:18,680
Speaker 3: the NBA Finals for the first time in twenty one

1574
01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:22,280
Speaker 3: years since the Bird Magic days. And I'm in Boston

1575
01:21:22,479 --> 01:21:27,320
Speaker 3: courtside doing my radio show where the Lakers station, and

1576
01:21:27,360 --> 01:21:30,280
Speaker 3: everybody was there. Oh yeah, I mean, Bill Russell's there.

1577
01:21:30,360 --> 01:21:34,120
Speaker 3: Every Celtic legend is there, every Laker legend. So the

1578
01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:37,240
Speaker 3: build up to that matchup, beyond the fact that it

1579
01:21:37,280 --> 01:21:41,000
Speaker 3: was a great matchup, is the fact that there's the history.

1580
01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:43,439
Speaker 3: I mean, you could literally trace the history of the

1581
01:21:43,600 --> 01:21:49,280
Speaker 3: entire league based on these two franchises. And if we

1582
01:21:49,280 --> 01:21:52,760
Speaker 3: were to get that matchup again, as much attention as

1583
01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:56,400
Speaker 3: should be called to Shack and Ad and Tatum and Brown.

1584
01:21:56,120 --> 01:21:58,439
Speaker 2: And you know all the current players.

1585
01:21:58,520 --> 01:22:00,680
Speaker 3: Just imagine I'm gonna go back to bird Magic, we

1586
01:22:00,720 --> 01:22:03,840
Speaker 3: go back to you know, Kobe going up against the

1587
01:22:04,120 --> 01:22:08,840
Speaker 3: big trio of Garnett and Pierce and ray Allen, you know.

1588
01:22:08,920 --> 01:22:12,360
Speaker 3: And so there's different layers of the story. It is

1589
01:22:12,400 --> 01:22:15,559
Speaker 3: a dream matchup, which brings to mind something that I've

1590
01:22:15,600 --> 01:22:17,480
Speaker 3: been observing throughout these playoffs.

1591
01:22:17,479 --> 01:22:19,240
Speaker 2: And I love a.

1592
01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:23,200
Speaker 3: Good conspiracy theory of him that because I've started many

1593
01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:26,200
Speaker 3: of them over the years. I'll be honest with you

1594
01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:28,920
Speaker 3: sort of the nature of the job, but I like

1595
01:22:29,040 --> 01:22:32,080
Speaker 3: to try to take an objective look sometimes away from

1596
01:22:32,080 --> 01:22:33,800
Speaker 3: the mic, you know, just sort of like what am

1597
01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:43,160
Speaker 3: I really seeing here the officiating in these playoffs? I'm sorry?

1598
01:22:44,160 --> 01:22:47,160
Speaker 3: And again, I had a friend of mine, Bill Spooner.

1599
01:22:47,200 --> 01:22:48,920
Speaker 3: He was a thirty year official in the NBA, and

1600
01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:51,640
Speaker 3: I had conversations with Bill over the years about you

1601
01:22:51,680 --> 01:22:55,560
Speaker 3: know what am I seeing there after the Tim Donneghe scandal,

1602
01:22:55,640 --> 01:22:58,280
Speaker 3: and he was being paid, you know, he's gambling on

1603
01:22:58,400 --> 01:23:01,360
Speaker 3: games and you know the league. So he's rogue. He's rogue,

1604
01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:03,679
Speaker 3: he's a you know, he's out there on an Island

1605
01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:07,439
Speaker 3: never happened. I have no rhyme or reason how they

1606
01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:10,320
Speaker 3: make calls in this league. I mean they blow whistles

1607
01:23:10,439 --> 01:23:15,600
Speaker 3: on fouls that are not happening. They I just and

1608
01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:19,439
Speaker 3: you wonder because a lot of people will say, well,

1609
01:23:19,479 --> 01:23:20,400
Speaker 3: it's fixed.

1610
01:23:20,720 --> 01:23:23,200
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say it's fixed. It's not fixed.

1611
01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:27,960
Speaker 3: But it's amazing how many times things work out where

1612
01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:30,880
Speaker 3: the NBA ultimately gets what they want in the end.

1613
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:35,519
Speaker 3: So if the Sixers lose today, if the Celtics advance

1614
01:23:35,600 --> 01:23:39,840
Speaker 3: to the Eastern Conference Finals, the Lakers are going to

1615
01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:42,479
Speaker 3: be going as a seventh seed against a one seed.

1616
01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:46,040
Speaker 3: Celtics will be going against an eight seed. But if

1617
01:23:46,040 --> 01:23:49,920
Speaker 3: we ultimately end up with a Boston La NBA Finals

1618
01:23:51,000 --> 01:23:54,000
Speaker 3: at a time where the NBA could use a little

1619
01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:57,280
Speaker 3: infusion like that, sure, I mean we've had a couple

1620
01:23:57,320 --> 01:24:00,799
Speaker 3: of years here where you get like Milwaukee Phoenix.

1621
01:24:00,920 --> 01:24:03,280
Speaker 5: Well let me let me go further down the rabbit

1622
01:24:03,320 --> 01:24:05,599
Speaker 5: hole with you. Hang on. So check this out. I'll

1623
01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:08,360
Speaker 5: revamp the report that Monty read to us earlier. Yes,

1624
01:24:08,479 --> 01:24:14,880
Speaker 5: Adrian Wojnarowski earlier. Yeah. An interesting dynamic approaching Sixers Celtics

1625
01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:18,719
Speaker 5: Game seven, per sources, is the NBA's officiating game report

1626
01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:21,760
Speaker 5: shared with teams from Game six revealed the significant disparity

1627
01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:25,760
Speaker 5: thirteen officiating errors disadvantaging the seventy six Ers to four

1628
01:24:25,880 --> 01:24:32,280
Speaker 5: disadvantaging Boston. Those can include calls and non calls, So

1629
01:24:32,320 --> 01:24:35,720
Speaker 5: it's not just about the fouls that are called. It's

1630
01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:40,040
Speaker 5: also about the fouls that weren't called and weren't called

1631
01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:45,000
Speaker 5: on Boston. Now in that game at least, right you know,

1632
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:48,000
Speaker 5: So now you start to think, well, if that's the case,

1633
01:24:48,600 --> 01:24:52,360
Speaker 5: is it mistakes just made in Game six? What did

1634
01:24:52,400 --> 01:24:54,760
Speaker 5: the rest of the series look like? I mean, are we,

1635
01:24:55,360 --> 01:24:58,519
Speaker 5: you know, drawing from a large enough sample, But it

1636
01:24:58,640 --> 01:25:01,280
Speaker 5: is curious, I do I agree with you when we

1637
01:25:01,400 --> 01:25:05,479
Speaker 5: see certain brands get promoted throughout the NBA postseason more

1638
01:25:05,520 --> 01:25:08,559
Speaker 5: than others. And I'm talking about television commercials that the

1639
01:25:08,640 --> 01:25:12,800
Speaker 5: NBA obviously is behind and sponsoring and marketing material. It

1640
01:25:12,920 --> 01:25:16,960
Speaker 5: is really promoting this, you know, East coast West coast

1641
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 5: stuff between the Lakers and the Celtics. It does feel

1642
01:25:20,080 --> 01:25:23,240
Speaker 5: like it's building in that direction. Having said all that,

1643
01:25:23,680 --> 01:25:27,559
Speaker 5: I will make an argument. Look, it's a lot easier

1644
01:25:27,600 --> 01:25:30,040
Speaker 5: to call fouls on the Sixers than it is on

1645
01:25:30,120 --> 01:25:32,719
Speaker 5: the Celtics. And the reason is is because the style.

1646
01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:36,400
Speaker 5: The Celtics are more of a you know, push the pace,

1647
01:25:37,160 --> 01:25:42,440
Speaker 5: spread the floor type of team. The Phillies they're obviously

1648
01:25:42,560 --> 01:25:44,960
Speaker 5: or excuse me, the Phillies. The Sixers are obviously a

1649
01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:47,759
Speaker 5: little bit more in the paint and they're bodying people

1650
01:25:47,800 --> 01:25:49,840
Speaker 5: up a little bit more. James Harden is a drive

1651
01:25:49,880 --> 01:25:53,680
Speaker 5: the lane type guy, driving kick you know, so I

1652
01:25:54,240 --> 01:25:57,840
Speaker 5: get it. I totally understand it. But that disparity could

1653
01:25:57,840 --> 01:26:00,760
Speaker 5: be explained because it's easier to call foul on the

1654
01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:05,160
Speaker 5: Sixers than it is on the Celtics. But it is

1655
01:26:05,880 --> 01:26:09,360
Speaker 5: it illuminates something that people talk about all the time,

1656
01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:12,920
Speaker 5: and it is relegated to this world of conspiracy theory

1657
01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:16,920
Speaker 5: until it isn't until you know, somebody's mic is left

1658
01:26:16,960 --> 01:26:20,840
Speaker 5: on too long, or until you know somebody who has

1659
01:26:20,920 --> 01:26:25,280
Speaker 5: more insight than we do comes out and speaks openly

1660
01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:27,960
Speaker 5: about it. You know, a lot of these things have

1661
01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:30,760
Speaker 5: happened in the past that have unveiled things that we

1662
01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:34,160
Speaker 5: used to think were conspiracy theories. But they maybe there's

1663
01:26:34,160 --> 01:26:36,160
Speaker 5: some truth to this. I don't know. What I do

1664
01:26:36,240 --> 01:26:39,920
Speaker 5: know is this usually in the NBA postseason, the better

1665
01:26:39,920 --> 01:26:43,559
Speaker 5: team wins these series when it's close, either team could

1666
01:26:43,560 --> 01:26:46,080
Speaker 5: win these series. Would it be better for the league

1667
01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:48,600
Speaker 5: if the Celtics go to the finals? Obviously?

1668
01:26:49,200 --> 01:26:52,000
Speaker 2: Obviously, Oh, a huge difference.

1669
01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:55,040
Speaker 3: I'm looking at NBA Finals ratings, and I understand ratings

1670
01:26:55,080 --> 01:26:57,840
Speaker 3: have changed dramatically over the years, streaming and everything else,

1671
01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:00,719
Speaker 3: so it's it's not a real gait when you compare

1672
01:27:00,960 --> 01:27:04,080
Speaker 3: numbers of now back in the day. But the one

1673
01:27:04,120 --> 01:27:06,880
Speaker 3: thing that was valuable to this league was that four

1674
01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:09,160
Speaker 3: year run of Warriors versus Lebron.

1675
01:27:09,479 --> 01:27:13,280
Speaker 2: I won't even say calvs. It was Lebron versus the Warriors.

1676
01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:17,160
Speaker 3: That was a ratings winner for the NBA consistently over

1677
01:27:17,200 --> 01:27:19,800
Speaker 3: the four years. Even when it wasn't even a competitive

1678
01:27:19,880 --> 01:27:21,600
Speaker 3: series like the last year, you know, it was like

1679
01:27:21,640 --> 01:27:23,519
Speaker 3: a sweep, they still.

1680
01:27:23,320 --> 01:27:26,719
Speaker 2: Put up good numbers since then. I mean, the Bubble

1681
01:27:26,800 --> 01:27:27,519
Speaker 2: was a disaster.

1682
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:30,599
Speaker 3: I remember you remember how we were all sitting here

1683
01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:33,440
Speaker 3: during the bubble. It to you and I were somehow

1684
01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:36,320
Speaker 3: putting together show after show off to show with literally

1685
01:27:36,360 --> 01:27:40,040
Speaker 3: nothing to talk about, you know, six days a week.

1686
01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:46,479
Speaker 3: But we all anticipated that, man, when sports is back,

1687
01:27:46,840 --> 01:27:49,479
Speaker 3: these are going to be like huge numbers.

1688
01:27:50,479 --> 01:27:55,040
Speaker 2: They were the worst ratings ever. That NBA Finals between

1689
01:27:55,080 --> 01:27:58,240
Speaker 2: the Lakers and the Heat was a catastrophoot, but there

1690
01:27:58,320 --> 01:27:58,840
Speaker 2: was a lot of.

1691
01:27:58,800 --> 01:28:01,040
Speaker 5: Context to that. I think. I think that a lot

1692
01:28:01,080 --> 01:28:06,559
Speaker 5: of people realized during the pandemic, especially that they use

1693
01:28:06,640 --> 01:28:09,639
Speaker 5: sports as an escape, you know, it's something to get

1694
01:28:09,640 --> 01:28:12,200
Speaker 5: away from the world's problems a little bit. Because we

1695
01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:14,840
Speaker 5: all experience the world in our own way and we

1696
01:28:14,880 --> 01:28:17,799
Speaker 5: all have our own opinions about what's happening in the world.

1697
01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:20,360
Speaker 5: And I think it got very real for a lot

1698
01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:23,920
Speaker 5: of sports fans who use sports to turn their brain off,

1699
01:28:24,120 --> 01:28:27,000
Speaker 5: you know, who are clicking over to you know, Heat

1700
01:28:27,080 --> 01:28:30,760
Speaker 5: Lakers because they don't want to think about the devastating

1701
01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:34,240
Speaker 5: tragedy of another shooting. They don't want to hear about

1702
01:28:34,560 --> 01:28:39,599
Speaker 5: political beliefs and see protests enacted like that. Was that

1703
01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:42,479
Speaker 5: was something that there was truth to that. Oh yes,

1704
01:28:42,520 --> 01:28:45,280
Speaker 5: and the NBA was a front runner in that space.

1705
01:28:45,360 --> 01:28:48,639
Speaker 5: And I'm not casting an opinion about it, positively or negatively.

1706
01:28:49,080 --> 01:28:51,320
Speaker 5: I'm just telling you the facts are fact. Yeah, there

1707
01:28:51,360 --> 01:28:55,919
Speaker 5: are there were a strong there was a strong contingent

1708
01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:58,320
Speaker 5: of sports viewer and trust me, I experienced this in

1709
01:28:58,360 --> 01:29:00,880
Speaker 5: my personal life as a former NFL player, I can't

1710
01:29:00,880 --> 01:29:03,800
Speaker 5: tell you how many people and a broadcaster obviously, how

1711
01:29:03,800 --> 01:29:07,080
Speaker 5: many people came up to me and said things about

1712
01:29:07,120 --> 01:29:09,800
Speaker 5: that part of sport during that time period that they

1713
01:29:10,400 --> 01:29:13,400
Speaker 5: couldn't stand. And now, as a former player, I also

1714
01:29:13,439 --> 01:29:17,400
Speaker 5: see it both ways, because I know how the outside

1715
01:29:17,479 --> 01:29:21,600
Speaker 5: world feels when you're inside of that community and you

1716
01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:24,679
Speaker 5: worry that you're not doing enough for the outside world,

1717
01:29:24,840 --> 01:29:26,920
Speaker 5: you know, because you say, I have this platform, but

1718
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:29,000
Speaker 5: I'm just playing a kid's game for a lot of money,

1719
01:29:29,040 --> 01:29:30,880
Speaker 5: Like what am I doing with my life? There's a

1720
01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:32,880
Speaker 5: little bit of that feeling, and so I get it

1721
01:29:32,920 --> 01:29:35,880
Speaker 5: from their perspective, the player's perspective, but I also get

1722
01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:38,280
Speaker 5: it from the viewer perspective. This is supposed to be

1723
01:29:38,280 --> 01:29:39,759
Speaker 5: an entertainment product.

1724
01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:40,360
Speaker 4: You know.

1725
01:29:40,680 --> 01:29:43,280
Speaker 5: If you went in to watch the New Mario movie

1726
01:29:43,520 --> 01:29:45,439
Speaker 5: and all of a sudden, there, you know, there was

1727
01:29:45,479 --> 01:29:49,000
Speaker 5: some sort of you know, dialogue or protest being pronounced

1728
01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:52,160
Speaker 5: by the animated characters, there would be a certain faction

1729
01:29:52,240 --> 01:29:54,200
Speaker 5: of people would walk out on the movie and be like,

1730
01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:56,160
Speaker 5: that's not why I brought my kids here, you know,

1731
01:29:56,240 --> 01:29:59,640
Speaker 5: and kids watch sports. I'm telling you that was a

1732
01:29:59,640 --> 01:30:02,160
Speaker 5: big part of it, and so yeah, we're at a

1733
01:30:02,200 --> 01:30:05,280
Speaker 5: point where the NBA postseason, the ratings haven't been higher

1734
01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:07,920
Speaker 5: than it is now in a long time. And I think,

1735
01:30:08,560 --> 01:30:11,679
Speaker 5: is it possible to get back to our original point

1736
01:30:12,000 --> 01:30:15,200
Speaker 5: that the conspiracy is correct, that they were trying to

1737
01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:19,160
Speaker 5: capture the two biggest box office teams to eventually meet

1738
01:30:19,479 --> 01:30:22,400
Speaker 5: in the finals and for this to be, you know,

1739
01:30:22,720 --> 01:30:31,000
Speaker 5: the reunion of some sort of NBA former contest that

1740
01:30:31,040 --> 01:30:34,479
Speaker 5: we want to relive. Maybe, but maybe I don't know.

1741
01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:36,080
Speaker 5: I don't know if I could go that far.

1742
01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:37,519
Speaker 3: Put it this way, they call it, you know what

1743
01:30:37,560 --> 01:30:41,759
Speaker 3: they used to call water cooler talk, A Nuggets heat

1744
01:30:41,840 --> 01:30:43,640
Speaker 3: final versus Lakers Celtics.

1745
01:30:44,640 --> 01:30:46,000
Speaker 2: You want to put a comparison on that?

1746
01:30:46,080 --> 01:30:48,840
Speaker 5: Are you trying to say that that rivalry isn't alive?

1747
01:30:48,920 --> 01:30:51,720
Speaker 5: And well, here in twenty twenty three Nuggets.

1748
01:30:51,320 --> 01:30:55,599
Speaker 2: Heat Okay, that would be a zero buzz.

1749
01:30:56,080 --> 01:30:56,400
Speaker 5: Okay.

1750
01:30:56,439 --> 01:30:58,719
Speaker 3: First of all, the Celtics do have to win a game,

1751
01:30:59,320 --> 01:31:01,799
Speaker 3: and that has kind up in a very short amount

1752
01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:04,000
Speaker 3: of time. So what are the Celtics need to do.

1753
01:31:04,600 --> 01:31:10,360
Speaker 3: There's one player I think that they have not utilized

1754
01:31:10,400 --> 01:31:14,160
Speaker 3: to their full extent. We'll explain coming up. This is

1755
01:31:14,200 --> 01:31:22,440
Speaker 3: Fox Sports Sunday, Steve Harbin, Rich Ornberger, Fox Sports Sunday.

1756
01:31:23,080 --> 01:31:25,120
Speaker 3: All right, so you still have major plans today on

01:31:25,160 --> 01:31:27,680
Speaker 3: Mother's Day or you got you got everything taken care of?

1758
01:31:27,760 --> 01:31:30,479
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, We're we're gonna be It

1759
01:31:30,520 --> 01:31:33,760
Speaker 5: seems like, as the text message is flowing during the show,

1760
01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:36,280
Speaker 5: we're going to be busier, much busier later than I

1761
01:31:37,040 --> 01:31:40,600
Speaker 5: I once imagined. So we have we now have some

1762
01:31:40,760 --> 01:31:43,720
Speaker 5: dinner plans. It's a little bit of a drive from here,

1763
01:31:43,760 --> 01:31:46,280
Speaker 5: but no complaints. Let me tell you one thing on

1764
01:31:46,400 --> 01:31:51,040
Speaker 5: Mother's Day. My answer is yes, that is my and

1765
01:31:51,320 --> 01:31:55,200
Speaker 5: I've taught my boys. Well, we woke up and the

1766
01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:57,760

01:31:57,800 --> 01:31:59,559

01:31:59,560 --> 01:32:02,920
Speaker 5: was like, yeah, and so mom is doing whatever she

1769
01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:04,920
Speaker 5: wants today and we're gonna we're gonna go along for

1770
01:32:04,960 --> 01:32:06,040
Speaker 5: the ride. Yeah.

1771
01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:09,640
Speaker 3: The worst experience I had on Mother's Day was Denise's

1772
01:32:09,760 --> 01:32:10,960
Speaker 3: very first Mother's Day.

1773
01:32:11,680 --> 01:32:14,760
Speaker 2: Drake was our oldest was about.

1774
01:32:14,479 --> 01:32:18,080
Speaker 3: Six seven months old, and we went out to lunch

1775
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:21,720
Speaker 3: with her mom and her sister. We were all out

1776
01:32:21,720 --> 01:32:24,160
Speaker 3: to lunch and we got our little baby boy there,

1777
01:32:24,240 --> 01:32:24,439
Speaker 3: you know.

1778
01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:27,679
Speaker 2: So she's a mom, and he uttered his very first

1779
01:32:27,680 --> 01:32:30,320
Speaker 2: words that day, Drake, don't do it, dada?

1780
01:32:30,680 --> 01:32:30,880
Speaker 6: No?

1781
01:32:31,280 --> 01:32:31,759
Speaker 5: Oh yeah.

1782
01:32:31,800 --> 01:32:32,919
Speaker 2: It was right on cue.

1783
01:32:33,439 --> 01:32:37,720
Speaker 3: And I'm saying he never ever, ever had uttered anything

1784
01:32:37,920 --> 01:32:44,720
Speaker 3: recognizable until that luncheon, at that table on Mother's.

1785
01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:47,160
Speaker 5: Day, you learned so much as a dad, as a husband.

1786
01:32:48,400 --> 01:32:49,840
Speaker 5: I told him. I looked right at him.

1787
01:32:49,880 --> 01:32:53,640
Speaker 2: I wanted to strangle it. Dude, are you kidding me?

1788
01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:58,200
Speaker 2: They're looking at me like I had nothing to do

1789
01:32:58,280 --> 01:33:00,120
Speaker 2: with this baby.

1790
01:33:00,800 --> 01:33:04,640
Speaker 5: Look at me. The funny thing about it is you

1791
01:33:04,640 --> 01:33:06,439
Speaker 5: can't prepare for that. There's nothing you can do.

1792
01:33:06,560 --> 01:33:06,960
Speaker 2: You don't know.

1793
01:33:08,200 --> 01:33:11,040
Speaker 5: You can't prepare for being a dad. Gifting a mom

1794
01:33:11,280 --> 01:33:14,040
Speaker 5: on on Mother's Day either, I need a little coaching

1795
01:33:14,120 --> 01:33:16,320
Speaker 5: because I forget what I got her. But I remember

1796
01:33:16,439 --> 01:33:18,519
Speaker 5: on Mother's Day I gave her all sorts of stuff.

1797
01:33:18,800 --> 01:33:20,400
Speaker 5: This one Mother's Day, I would do this and then

1798
01:33:20,439 --> 01:33:24,000
Speaker 5: another thing. She looks at me, She's like, we have two,

1799
01:33:24,520 --> 01:33:27,400
Speaker 5: like we had an infinite a toddler at the time.

1800
01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:31,320
Speaker 5: I'm like, yeah, she goes, you didn't think like to

1801
01:33:31,400 --> 01:33:35,160
Speaker 5: get our oldest son, who is a toddler, to sit

1802
01:33:35,200 --> 01:33:38,920
Speaker 5: down and like write a card or you know, put

1803
01:33:39,040 --> 01:33:42,800
Speaker 5: he's he has these twitchy, beautiful little hands. She was like,

1804
01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:45,360
Speaker 5: maybe maybe do a little finger painting with him. She

1805
01:33:45,479 --> 01:33:48,280
Speaker 5: was like, I mean, all this is great. She was like,

1806
01:33:48,360 --> 01:33:50,960
Speaker 5: but all of this I'm gonna forget. She was like,

1807
01:33:51,040 --> 01:33:53,759
Speaker 5: I mean, they have these cute little feet in these hands.

1808
01:33:53,920 --> 01:33:58,960
Speaker 5: So I'm giving advice every father out there, tiny hansy

1809
01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:03,680
Speaker 5: tynes hands. Take those tiny hands and cover them in

1810
01:34:03,760 --> 01:34:05,200
Speaker 5: pain and put them on something.

1811
01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:08,160
Speaker 2: That is what every mom wants. I am telling you.

1812
01:34:08,560 --> 01:34:11,719
Speaker 3: When my boys were young, and they were nineteen months apart,

1813
01:34:12,760 --> 01:34:15,559
Speaker 3: I woke up on Mother's Day in full panic. Oh no,

1814
01:34:15,720 --> 01:34:18,320
Speaker 3: I think Drake was maybe two and a half and

1815
01:34:18,400 --> 01:34:22,040
Speaker 3: Garrett was one no, and I thought I need to

1816
01:34:22,040 --> 01:34:24,240
Speaker 3: get a I need to get a Mother's Day card

1817
01:34:24,320 --> 01:34:27,559
Speaker 3: from them, even though they obviously can't write anything or

1818
01:34:27,560 --> 01:34:28,200
Speaker 3: anything else.

1819
01:34:28,360 --> 01:34:30,280
Speaker 2: I literally grabbed both boys.

1820
01:34:31,200 --> 01:34:34,760
Speaker 3: Threw them in the car, ran down, looking desperately, and

1821
01:34:34,800 --> 01:34:39,439
Speaker 3: then wrote out a card from them, starting with Dad's

1822
01:34:39,479 --> 01:34:41,760
Speaker 3: really lame we wanted to get you know.

1823
01:34:42,280 --> 01:34:42,439
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1824
01:34:43,120 --> 01:34:45,320
Speaker 2: I was in full panic, yeah yeah, And then of

1825
01:34:45,320 --> 01:34:47,519
Speaker 2: course handed it to Denise. She's like, what is this?

1826
01:34:48,920 --> 01:34:51,280
Speaker 2: The hell is this? Are you kidding me?

1827
01:34:52,600 --> 01:34:55,920
Speaker 3: I just added I didn't know what to do I mean,

1828
01:34:56,000 --> 01:34:58,920
Speaker 3: I'm like, should I should I get a card from them?

1829
01:34:58,960 --> 01:34:59,880
Speaker 2: They're two and a half and one?

1830
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:03,559
Speaker 3: I mean, at what point do they need to get

1831
01:35:03,840 --> 01:35:05,080
Speaker 3: a card for mom?

1832
01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:08,599
Speaker 5: Right? We? So we I have we We started a tradition.

1833
01:35:08,720 --> 01:35:11,800
Speaker 5: And again, steal any of these ideas, I'm none of

1834
01:35:11,800 --> 01:35:15,320
Speaker 5: them are trademarked. We started tradition. So when we bought

1835
01:35:15,320 --> 01:35:18,240
Speaker 5: a house, it was the first fence we built, right,

1836
01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:20,240
Speaker 5: you know, and that was meaningful, like, you know, it's

1837
01:35:20,280 --> 01:35:22,479
Speaker 5: our you know, it's like our little white picket fence.

1838
01:35:22,520 --> 01:35:24,519
Speaker 2: Deal, right, it's brown fence. But you get my point.

1839
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:27,320
Speaker 5: So I've kept the scrap wood from the fence, and

1840
01:35:27,439 --> 01:35:29,960
Speaker 5: every mother's damn not kidding. I cut up a couple

1841
01:35:30,040 --> 01:35:33,400
Speaker 5: pieces of the fence and I tie them together on

1842
01:35:33,479 --> 01:35:35,840
Speaker 5: the back using a couple of screws, and I get

1843
01:35:35,880 --> 01:35:38,599
Speaker 5: either I get either handprints or footprints from the kids.

1844
01:35:38,760 --> 01:35:41,040
Speaker 5: I've been doing this for years now, and it works

1845
01:35:41,080 --> 01:35:44,040
Speaker 5: every time there's tears. Here go, she's not listening. Sure,

1846
01:35:44,040 --> 01:35:46,120
Speaker 5: she listens to none of my shows, so I'm not

1847
01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:48,040
Speaker 5: spilling the beans for her. She probably can see it

1848
01:35:48,040 --> 01:35:50,519
Speaker 5: coming a million miles away at this point. But I'm

1849
01:35:50,560 --> 01:35:53,880
Speaker 5: telling you, if you have little kids especially, Do something

1850
01:35:53,920 --> 01:35:56,200
Speaker 5: with the feet prints, do something with the ham nice,

1851
01:35:56,240 --> 01:35:58,479
Speaker 5: You're gonna save yourself a lot of heartache and they're

1852
01:35:58,520 --> 01:36:01,960
Speaker 5: going to I mean cherish forever. Trust me, I've gotten

1853
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:03,679
Speaker 5: her a million things over the years we've been married,

1854
01:36:03,760 --> 01:36:07,280
Speaker 5: dating forever. But those things that hang on the wall,

1855
01:36:07,439 --> 01:36:10,559
Speaker 5: she looks at them sometimes she remembers, that's what you

1856
01:36:10,600 --> 01:36:12,479
Speaker 5: need to do. Yeah, this is pre school.

1857
01:36:12,560 --> 01:36:13,040
Speaker 2: See once.

1858
01:36:13,240 --> 01:36:16,240
Speaker 3: Once they're in school, the schools know this. Yeah, so

1859
01:36:16,320 --> 01:36:18,080
Speaker 3: they get class activities.

1860
01:36:18,120 --> 01:36:21,280
Speaker 5: So where making trees out of the hamdprints and the

1861
01:36:21,320 --> 01:36:25,559
Speaker 5: hearts of the hamprints. But yeah, at school, yeah.

1862
01:36:25,400 --> 01:36:27,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, you need to figure out something. All right, Uh,

1863
01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:33,160
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you some numbers of two Celtic stars,

1864
01:36:34,320 --> 01:36:37,360
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna ask you which guy would you say

1865
01:36:37,479 --> 01:36:39,160
Speaker 2: is the go to guy? All I'm gonna give you

1866
01:36:39,160 --> 01:36:39,679
Speaker 2: the numbers.

1867
01:36:40,400 --> 01:36:43,920
Speaker 3: One of these guys in this series against the Philadelphia

1868
01:36:44,040 --> 01:36:47,080
Speaker 3: seventy six ers, just in this series in the six games,

1869
01:36:47,680 --> 01:36:51,280
Speaker 3: is shooting fifty six percent from the field, forty two

1870
01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:55,400
Speaker 3: percent from three point land. The other guy is shooting

1871
01:36:55,560 --> 01:36:58,799
Speaker 3: forty two percent from the field and thirty two percent

1872
01:36:59,120 --> 01:37:01,439
Speaker 3: from the free throw line. So fifty six and forty

1873
01:37:01,479 --> 01:37:03,920
Speaker 3: two versus forty two and thirty two.

1874
01:37:04,280 --> 01:37:07,080
Speaker 2: That's a that's a pretty clear cut difference. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

1875
01:37:07,080 --> 01:37:11,679
Speaker 2: Well the first guy is Jalen Brown. The second guy

1876
01:37:11,880 --> 01:37:15,639
Speaker 2: is Jason Tatum. I mean, so you have Jalen Brown

1877
01:37:15,680 --> 01:37:17,760
Speaker 2: and made second team All NBA. He's an All Star,

1878
01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:21,639
Speaker 2: he's a legit All Star. Yeah, and you got Jason Tatum,

1879
01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:25,000
Speaker 2: who made first team All NBA for the second year

1880
01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:27,720
Speaker 2: in a row. Now, I know Tatum hit some big

1881
01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:30,559
Speaker 2: shots at the end of Game six after going zero

1882
01:37:30,560 --> 01:37:31,880
Speaker 2: for ten in the first half.

1883
01:37:32,080 --> 01:37:33,200
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1884
01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:36,200
Speaker 3: So I'm asking you as you approach your game plan

1885
01:37:36,240 --> 01:37:40,080
Speaker 3: for this Game seven, based on what they're doing in

1886
01:37:40,120 --> 01:37:43,240
Speaker 3: this series, who do you want to get the ball?

1887
01:37:44,120 --> 01:37:46,000
Speaker 2: Who do you want taking the shot? This is what

1888
01:37:46,080 --> 01:37:46,840
Speaker 2: I'm asking here.

1889
01:37:47,479 --> 01:37:50,280
Speaker 3: The guy who's fifty six percent from the field forty

1890
01:37:50,320 --> 01:37:52,800
Speaker 3: two percent from the three point line or the guy

1891
01:37:52,840 --> 01:37:55,240
Speaker 3: that's forty two percent from the field and thirty.

1892
01:37:54,960 --> 01:37:56,519
Speaker 2: Two percent from the three point line.

1893
01:37:56,560 --> 01:37:58,840
Speaker 5: This goes back to the conversation though that we were

1894
01:37:58,880 --> 01:38:02,000
Speaker 5: just having about James Hart in Joel Embiid though, you know,

1895
01:38:02,040 --> 01:38:04,519
Speaker 5: and they're kind of faced with the same dilemma. You know,

1896
01:38:04,640 --> 01:38:08,559
Speaker 5: do you do you go with Joel Embiid, the guy

1897
01:38:08,600 --> 01:38:10,439
Speaker 5: who's been doing it for you all season long, the

1898
01:38:10,439 --> 01:38:16,280
Speaker 5: reigning NBA MVP. Or do you trust James Harden who's

1899
01:38:16,280 --> 01:38:19,720
Speaker 5: had his struggles in the postseason and the stats don't lie,

1900
01:38:19,800 --> 01:38:23,600
Speaker 5: especially recent elimination games that he's been in, where he

1901
01:38:23,760 --> 01:38:28,480
Speaker 5: hasn't factored in a positive way for his teams. It's

1902
01:38:28,520 --> 01:38:30,839
Speaker 5: a tough decision to make, and so with Brown and Tatum,

1903
01:38:31,000 --> 01:38:33,240
Speaker 5: the Celtics are faced with much of the same. I

1904
01:38:33,280 --> 01:38:35,360
Speaker 5: guess you got a base it. It's a field thing

1905
01:38:35,960 --> 01:38:37,559
Speaker 5: and that's where coaching is important.

1906
01:38:37,560 --> 01:38:42,080
Speaker 2: But here's the difference. Yeah, Jason Tatum has a Kobe

1907
01:38:42,080 --> 01:38:46,400
Speaker 2: Bryant mentality. At the end of games, He's going to

1908
01:38:46,479 --> 01:38:51,920
Speaker 2: demand the ball he's got, you know Kobe Kobe's There

1909
01:38:51,920 --> 01:38:54,080
Speaker 2: are many records that Kobe has.

1910
01:38:54,120 --> 01:38:56,800
Speaker 3: It will never be broken. One is most missed field

1911
01:38:56,840 --> 01:38:59,559
Speaker 3: goals in a career. His record is so far and away,

1912
01:38:59,600 --> 01:39:02,599
Speaker 3: by far the most. Nobody never shot forty seven percent

1913
01:39:02,680 --> 01:39:05,479
Speaker 3: any season of his twenty year career. But at end

1914
01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:09,120
Speaker 3: of games, forget it. Next level, the amount of shots

1915
01:39:09,160 --> 01:39:12,000
Speaker 3: that he attempted in the last minute of games that were,

1916
01:39:12,320 --> 01:39:16,080
Speaker 3: you know, within two points is triple like anybody else,

1917
01:39:16,160 --> 01:39:17,800
Speaker 3: Tatum has that same mentality.

1918
01:39:17,880 --> 01:39:20,200
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he you know, again a game on the

1919
01:39:20,240 --> 01:39:24,280
Speaker 2: guy and I'm thinking, well, hang on, hang on, let

1920
01:39:24,280 --> 01:39:26,439
Speaker 2: me make I mean really this game six.

1921
01:39:26,600 --> 01:39:28,839
Speaker 5: Let me give you his game success because these are important.

1922
01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:29,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1923
01:39:29,400 --> 01:39:33,320
Speaker 5: So with with obviously the game hinging on somebody stepping

1924
01:39:33,400 --> 01:39:38,600
Speaker 5: up and performing sixteen fourth quarter points after having just

1925
01:39:38,760 --> 01:39:42,800
Speaker 5: three in his previous thirty six minutes, Tatum alone outscored

1926
01:39:42,840 --> 01:39:46,120
Speaker 5: the Sixers sixteen to thirteen in the entire quarter. He

1927
01:39:46,160 --> 01:39:48,840
Speaker 5: also finished with nine rebounds, six assists, two steals in

1928
01:39:48,920 --> 01:39:52,720
Speaker 5: two blocks. So even though he wasn't as an impactful

1929
01:39:53,160 --> 01:39:56,000
Speaker 5: offensively through the first thirty six minutes of the game,

1930
01:39:56,040 --> 01:39:59,679
Speaker 5: that final quarter plus what he had done defensively throughout

1931
01:39:59,680 --> 01:40:04,479
Speaker 5: the game were outstanding. I mean, it's you need a closer.

1932
01:40:04,680 --> 01:40:07,360
Speaker 5: Somebody's got to step up into that role. He's had

1933
01:40:07,400 --> 01:40:11,519
Speaker 5: an underwhelming postseason for Boston, but it doesn't mean he can't.

1934
01:40:11,920 --> 01:40:15,160
Speaker 5: Just mean he hasn't. So if he can put together

1935
01:40:15,160 --> 01:40:18,639
Speaker 5: a Game seven that resembles anything like the fourth quarter,

1936
01:40:18,760 --> 01:40:21,760
Speaker 5: especially for Game six, you gotta put your faith into

1937
01:40:21,840 --> 01:40:23,599
Speaker 5: him because he can score at that level.

1938
01:40:23,880 --> 01:40:27,720
Speaker 3: Well, I go back to the last game when they

1939
01:40:27,720 --> 01:40:31,719
Speaker 3: were eliminated in the NBA Finals by the Golden State Warriors.

1940
01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:36,759
Speaker 3: And if you remember that game, Jalen Brown scored thirty

1941
01:40:36,800 --> 01:40:40,439
Speaker 3: four points twelve to twenty three from the field, five

1942
01:40:40,479 --> 01:40:43,160
Speaker 3: of eleven from three point land. In that same game,

1943
01:40:43,280 --> 01:40:47,320
Speaker 3: Jason Tatum had thirteen points on six of eighteen shooting.

1944
01:40:47,479 --> 01:40:50,400
Speaker 3: He literally shot him right out of the game in

1945
01:40:50,400 --> 01:40:55,080
Speaker 3: a game at home. That was Game six at home. Yeah,

1946
01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:58,040
Speaker 3: that they ended up losing, and losing that serious to

1947
01:40:58,040 --> 01:41:01,320
Speaker 3: the Warriors. So what you say about you got to

1948
01:41:01,360 --> 01:41:04,960
Speaker 3: get a feel for this. Missoula is a rookie coach.

1949
01:41:05,160 --> 01:41:05,400
Speaker 5: Yep.

1950
01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:09,120
Speaker 3: He's had some criticism in these playoffs about not calling

1951
01:41:09,200 --> 01:41:11,920
Speaker 3: timeouts and letting the players sort of figure it out.

1952
01:41:11,960 --> 01:41:16,160
Speaker 3: But I'm telling you right now, if he's having an

1953
01:41:16,200 --> 01:41:20,439
Speaker 3: off shooting night and Brown is not, and we're coming

1954
01:41:20,479 --> 01:41:22,559
Speaker 3: down the stretch, I know what he did in game six.

1955
01:41:22,800 --> 01:41:24,960
Speaker 5: Go back to game five to prove your point. Now,

1956
01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:27,479
Speaker 5: I'll give you more stats. Yeah, you remember that game

1957
01:41:27,520 --> 01:41:32,559
Speaker 5: five performance. He missed fourteen consecutive shots in the opening quarter. Yeah,

1958
01:41:32,560 --> 01:41:34,880
Speaker 5: I mean that is the worst streak by any player

1959
01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:38,200
Speaker 5: in the postseason over the last quarter century. Yeah, I

1960
01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:41,080
Speaker 5: mean it was dreadful watching and it was hard to watch.

1961
01:41:41,280 --> 01:41:43,519
Speaker 3: But he's the kind of guy again with the Kobe Well,

1962
01:41:43,600 --> 01:41:45,599
Speaker 3: I may I might miss twenty year roll, but at

1963
01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:48,120
Speaker 3: some point and it worked in Game six.

1964
01:41:48,280 --> 01:41:49,439
Speaker 2: At some point he did.

1965
01:41:49,320 --> 01:41:53,960
Speaker 5: Start volume shooters though. I mean, there's something about it, look,

1966
01:41:54,000 --> 01:41:56,120
Speaker 5: and you gotta trust it a little bit like James

1967
01:41:56,120 --> 01:41:58,400
Speaker 5: Harden is bad when he's off, but when he's on,

1968
01:41:58,600 --> 01:42:02,320
Speaker 5: he's dynamite. That game that Joel Embiid in the last series,

1969
01:42:03,120 --> 01:42:07,280
Speaker 5: that that Joel Embiid missed for the Sixers, Harden had

1970
01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:10,160
Speaker 5: one of the best games of his career in the postseason.

1971
01:42:10,240 --> 01:42:14,680
Speaker 5: So look, I don't know. Yes, you have to you

1972
01:42:14,760 --> 01:42:17,000
Speaker 5: have to trust that Brown's gonna be consistent for you.

1973
01:42:17,080 --> 01:42:20,280
Speaker 5: But Tatum is a closer man and he proved that

1974
01:42:20,400 --> 01:42:23,200
Speaker 5: in Game six. So you gotta go based off feel.

1975
01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:27,720
Speaker 5: And if you're Doc facing this onslought and being the

1976
01:42:27,800 --> 01:42:30,400
Speaker 5: veteran in the room, you gotta have an answer Otherwise

1977
01:42:30,439 --> 01:42:32,560
Speaker 5: those are gonna be some tough questions for Rivers to

1978
01:42:32,600 --> 01:42:35,400
Speaker 5: answer at the podium post game if they lose. Well,

1979
01:42:35,400 --> 01:42:38,160
Speaker 5: not Rivers, but you no, I'm talking about if Doc

1980
01:42:38,200 --> 01:42:39,120
Speaker 5: does have an answer for.

1981
01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:41,680
Speaker 3: Talla, if he doesn't have a nice told well, he's

1982
01:42:41,720 --> 01:42:43,640
Speaker 3: gonna have to ang on the losing again. Like we

1983
01:42:43,680 --> 01:42:46,120
Speaker 3: talked earlier about hard and embiid. Who are you going

1984
01:42:46,200 --> 01:42:48,040
Speaker 3: to put the ball in the hands of down the stretch?

1985
01:42:48,040 --> 01:42:49,920

1995
01:43:19,560 --> 01:43:21,080
Speaker 5: Are you your mom's favorite?

1996
01:43:21,160 --> 01:43:24,160
Speaker 6: Yes, I am. Obviously I'm the baby. I'm the only

1997
01:43:24,200 --> 01:43:26,920
Speaker 6: girl you. Of course I'm her favorite, which is.

1998
01:43:26,880 --> 01:43:29,120
Speaker 2: The same thing as my daughter, who is the only

1999
01:43:29,160 --> 01:43:30,880
Speaker 2: girl and the youngest, right right.

2000
01:43:31,000 --> 01:43:33,600
Speaker 6: I jokingly say that my middle brother.

2001
01:43:33,520 --> 01:43:35,400
Speaker 4: Is the favorite because he always says he.

2002
01:43:35,320 --> 01:43:37,160
Speaker 6: Had the rough life being in the middle child. I'm like, mom,

2003
01:43:37,200 --> 01:43:39,680
Speaker 6: is your mom's favorite? No, you're not. I know, I know,

2004
01:43:39,720 --> 01:43:40,400
Speaker 6: but I always.

2005
01:43:40,160 --> 01:43:42,320
Speaker 3: Joked that he was a very interesting dynamic because this

2006
01:43:42,360 --> 01:43:44,800
Speaker 3: is my kid. So my youngest still living at home,

2007
01:43:44,920 --> 01:43:48,760
Speaker 3: he's like Mom's helper. Yeah, like the oldest. He's always

2008
01:43:48,840 --> 01:43:50,880
Speaker 3: it's you know, a little bit of the back and

2009
01:43:50,960 --> 01:43:52,479
Speaker 3: forth with mom and everything else.

2010
01:43:52,680 --> 01:43:55,400
Speaker 2: Yes, he is helpful to mom.

2011
01:43:55,640 --> 01:43:55,800
Speaker 6: Right.

2012
01:43:56,240 --> 01:43:59,240
Speaker 2: And then of course his younger sister, she's the star.

2013
01:43:59,560 --> 01:43:59,760
Speaker 4: Right.

2014
01:44:00,400 --> 01:44:02,920
Speaker 6: We all bring something to the table for Mom.

2015
01:44:03,080 --> 01:44:04,280
Speaker 2: Do you feel competition?

2016
01:44:04,600 --> 01:44:05,760
Speaker 6: Not at all, not at all.

2017
01:44:05,800 --> 01:44:09,040
Speaker 4: I'm definitely the favorite, but we all bring something different.

2018
01:44:09,479 --> 01:44:12,280
Speaker 4: You know, my oldest brother provided her with a grandchild,

2019
01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:13,880
Speaker 4: the only grandchild in the family.

2020
01:44:14,760 --> 01:44:17,240
Speaker 6: So you know, maybe Jasper is now the favorite.

2021
01:44:17,320 --> 01:44:20,400
Speaker 2: Maybe I would still hope I am Are you jealous

2022
01:44:20,400 --> 01:44:20,960
Speaker 2: of Jasper?

2023
01:44:21,040 --> 01:44:24,599
Speaker 6: I am not jealous of Jasper, thank god.

2024
01:44:27,479 --> 01:44:31,000
Speaker 4: My dog is actually jealous jealous of Jasper because sometimes

2025
01:44:31,040 --> 01:44:33,960
Speaker 4: you'll my dog will hear my mother like baby talking

2026
01:44:34,280 --> 01:44:36,400
Speaker 4: and she's on FaceTime, and my dog.

2027
01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:39,320
Speaker 6: Runs over because he thinks it's for him, and she's

2028
01:44:39,360 --> 01:44:40,679
Speaker 6: on the phone and he's like, oh.

2029
01:44:40,560 --> 01:44:42,559
Speaker 4: You're talking to somebody else, You're not talking to me.

2030
01:44:42,680 --> 01:44:43,479
Speaker 2: I'm the baby.

2031
01:44:43,560 --> 01:44:46,120
Speaker 5: The dog walks now.

2032
01:44:48,920 --> 01:44:49,360
Speaker 6: So sad.

2033
01:44:49,400 --> 01:44:51,000
Speaker 4: So I think my dog has it the hardest with

2034
01:44:51,360 --> 01:44:55,160
Speaker 4: the arrival of Jasper in the family. My middle brother

2035
01:44:55,360 --> 01:44:58,080
Speaker 4: is actually not in the country. He's living his best

2036
01:44:58,120 --> 01:45:00,519
Speaker 4: life and he's currently in Costa Rica with his so

2037
01:45:00,880 --> 01:45:03,760
Speaker 4: he won't be seeing my mother today. And my oldest brother,

2038
01:45:03,800 --> 01:45:05,439
Speaker 4: I think, went to see her today. So I'll be

2039
01:45:05,680 --> 01:45:08,040
Speaker 4: the evening one. I'll be in charge of the.

2040
01:45:08,000 --> 01:45:08,960

2043
01:45:15,000 --> 01:45:16,280
Speaker 6: Guys, tip off isn't about.

2044
01:45:16,320 --> 01:45:18,920
Speaker 4: I think they put like nine minutes left before Game

2045
01:45:18,960 --> 01:45:20,479
Speaker 4: seven of the Philadelphia seventy six ers.

2046
01:45:20,479 --> 01:45:22,160
Speaker 6: In the Boston Celtics, I really.

2047
01:45:21,920 --> 01:45:24,760
Speaker 4: Am interested to see what Jason.

2048
01:45:24,479 --> 01:45:27,280
Speaker 6: Tatum is gonna do. He needs to prove to me

2049
01:45:27,680 --> 01:45:30,480
Speaker 6: that he is this clutch player.

2050
01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:32,719
Speaker 4: Because he has his moments, but not all the time.

2051
01:45:32,800 --> 01:45:35,400
Speaker 4: So I'm curious to see who's gonna come out on top.

2052
01:45:35,520 --> 01:45:38,879
Speaker 4: Who's gonna face the Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Speaker 6: Even though Boston is.

2054
01:45:39,880 --> 01:45:42,559
Speaker 4: Favorite to win, I picked Boston to win. I don't

2055
01:45:42,560 --> 01:45:45,040
Speaker 4: think it's gonna be a blowout in anyway. I think

2056
01:45:45,040 --> 01:45:45,880
Speaker 4: it's gonna be a close game.

2057
01:45:45,920 --> 01:45:48,080

01:49:55,439 --> 01:49:56,960
Speaker 3: But as this is going on, I want to get

2150
01:49:56,960 --> 01:50:00,280
Speaker 3: back to the NFL for a moment here and and

2151
01:50:00,360 --> 01:50:05,800
Speaker 3: talking about bias in scheduling in the National Football League. Now,

2152
01:50:05,960 --> 01:50:10,000
Speaker 3: I still don't know exactly how the schedule is figured out.

2153
01:50:10,040 --> 01:50:12,840
Speaker 3: We know everything is based on the previous year, on

2154
01:50:12,880 --> 01:50:16,320
Speaker 3: who you play and where you play. All that's already predetermined.

2155
01:50:16,840 --> 01:50:18,800
Speaker 3: It's the order of the games, where do you get

2156
01:50:18,800 --> 01:50:22,880
Speaker 3: the buy and everything else. So every year, my younger

2157
01:50:23,040 --> 01:50:26,719
Speaker 3: son is one of the very few actual Chargers fans

2158
01:50:26,880 --> 01:50:30,439
Speaker 3: on the planet. There aren't many, but he is and

2159
01:50:30,520 --> 01:50:34,040
Speaker 3: always has been an I'll be a Chargers fan. So

2160
01:50:34,200 --> 01:50:37,240
Speaker 3: every year I've been taken. Since the last couple of years,

2161
01:50:37,280 --> 01:50:40,559
Speaker 3: I've been taking he and his brother to a Chargers game.

2162
01:50:40,840 --> 01:50:43,080
Speaker 3: Two years ago was a Thursday night game against the Chiefs.

2163
01:50:43,160 --> 01:50:45,320
Speaker 3: Last year it was a Thursday night game, I believe,

2164
01:50:45,400 --> 01:50:47,480
Speaker 3: or a Monday night game against the Broncos.

2165
01:50:47,640 --> 01:50:48,240
Speaker 5: Oh yeah.

2166
01:50:48,280 --> 01:50:50,680
Speaker 3: So this year I'm looking for one of those primetime

2167
01:50:50,760 --> 01:50:53,880
Speaker 3: games and I'm looking at the schedule and right out

2168
01:50:53,920 --> 01:50:59,160
Speaker 3: of the box, Monday night football at so far against

2169
01:50:59,200 --> 01:51:00,400
Speaker 3: the Dallas Cows.

2170
01:51:01,200 --> 01:51:05,439
Speaker 2: By the way, the Chargers have a bye in week five. Well,

2171
01:51:05,439 --> 01:51:09,080
Speaker 2: that's that's not good. The last thing you want. I mean,

2172
01:51:09,080 --> 01:51:11,600
Speaker 2: if you had a preference, I want to have a bye.

2173
01:51:11,680 --> 01:51:14,960
Speaker 2: I would imagine the worst possible bye is the earliest

2174
01:51:14,960 --> 01:51:15,840
Speaker 2: you could have a bye.

2175
01:51:15,960 --> 01:51:16,759
Speaker 5: Yes, that's correct.

2176
01:51:16,800 --> 01:51:19,280
Speaker 3: I mean because do the math, that's the seventeen game season.

2177
01:51:19,320 --> 01:51:21,599
Speaker 3: You now have what thirteen straight weeks of playing games.

2178
01:51:21,680 --> 01:51:22,320
Speaker 3: That's pretty rough.

2179
01:51:22,439 --> 01:51:26,839
Speaker 2: That's rough. But not only that, coming out of the bye,

2180
01:51:26,880 --> 01:51:29,919
Speaker 2: we're gonna give you a home game against the Dallas

2181
01:51:29,960 --> 01:51:32,920
Speaker 2: Cowboys where Cowboy fans will take of Oh, I don't

2182
01:51:32,920 --> 01:51:35,240
Speaker 2: know ninety percent of the crowd.

2183
01:51:35,400 --> 01:51:39,360
Speaker 5: However, I will say this though, Yeah, the Chargers have

2184
01:51:39,640 --> 01:51:46,040
Speaker 5: nothing to complain about, because that playoff appearance from the

2185
01:51:46,160 --> 01:51:51,040
Speaker 5: Chargers was disturbingly bad, epic. I mean that historic. That

2186
01:51:51,200 --> 01:51:54,200
Speaker 5: was a historic failure in the second half of that

2187
01:51:54,280 --> 01:51:57,240
Speaker 5: game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Who I got it, they're

2188
01:51:57,320 --> 01:51:59,360
Speaker 5: much better team than a lot of people thought they

2189
01:51:59,400 --> 01:52:03,280
Speaker 5: were going to be into the postseason. But still, I mean,

2190
01:52:03,360 --> 01:52:07,200
Speaker 5: for that offense to generate zero points to lose, that

2191
01:52:07,320 --> 01:52:13,400
Speaker 5: lead a shutout, pitching a shutout going into halftime is outrageous.

2192
01:52:13,760 --> 01:52:18,240
Speaker 5: So the fact that they've been rewarded with six primetime

2193
01:52:18,280 --> 01:52:22,080
Speaker 5: appearances in twenty twenty three. Six, they're matching the Chiefs,

2194
01:52:22,120 --> 01:52:24,800
Speaker 5: they're matching the New York Jets with Aaron Rodgers now

2195
01:52:24,880 --> 01:52:28,080
Speaker 5: six the most you can have in the NFL, and

2196
01:52:28,120 --> 01:52:31,400
Speaker 5: their first is against America's team at home. Mind you,

2197
01:52:32,120 --> 01:52:34,200
Speaker 5: I get it, the bye weeks a little early and

2198
01:52:34,240 --> 01:52:38,840
Speaker 5: that stinks, But after that playoff appearance, that's pretty good.

2199
01:52:38,880 --> 01:52:40,639
Speaker 5: The NFL did right by the Trials.

2200
01:52:40,720 --> 01:52:43,960
Speaker 2: But you know why they're on the NFL.

2201
01:52:44,080 --> 01:52:46,840
Speaker 3: Ever since the Rams first moved the Chargers moved to LA,

2202
01:52:46,920 --> 01:52:50,600
Speaker 3: they have been desperate, desperate to generate a buzz in

2203
01:52:50,680 --> 01:52:54,080
Speaker 3: Los Angeles for their NFL team. That's part of it too,

2204
01:52:54,280 --> 01:52:57,360
Speaker 3: They're trying desperately. They're their homeskin, you know, going to

2205
01:52:57,360 --> 01:52:59,959
Speaker 3: be in LA. The building if you go to Sofi's

2206
01:53:00,080 --> 01:53:03,559
Speaker 3: stadium already the home of the NFL network. Upstairs are

2207
01:53:03,560 --> 01:53:06,880
Speaker 3: all these vacant offices where eventually the league officers are.

2208
01:53:06,800 --> 01:53:07,479
Speaker 2: All going to be there.

2209
01:53:07,600 --> 01:53:12,160
Speaker 3: They're doing anything possible to get some real buzz, not

2210
01:53:12,320 --> 01:53:14,559
Speaker 3: just bandwagon buzs like we had with the Rams a

2211
01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:16,439
Speaker 3: couple of years ago winning a Super Bowl that was

2212
01:53:16,479 --> 01:53:19,000
Speaker 3: bandwagon bus Yeah yeah, I mean that disappeared as soon

2213
01:53:19,000 --> 01:53:21,479
Speaker 3: as they went off the cliff last season, and the

2214
01:53:21,560 --> 01:53:26,240
Speaker 3: Chargers again outside of my son, hello and how many seriously,

2215
01:53:26,600 --> 01:53:29,519
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get back to my Twitter account at Cannon

2216
01:53:29,560 --> 01:53:32,880
Speaker 3: Hartman did this yesterday with the XFL I would imagine

2217
01:53:32,880 --> 01:53:36,800
Speaker 3: I would get more, apparently more commotion about the how

2218
01:53:36,800 --> 01:53:41,479
Speaker 3: many people can actually identify themselves if you were to say,

2219
01:53:41,520 --> 01:53:42,040
Speaker 3: all right.

2220
01:53:42,000 --> 01:53:45,040
Speaker 5: As like a there's no other rooting interest, you are

2221
01:53:45,080 --> 01:53:46,280
Speaker 5: a Chargers football.

2222
01:53:46,400 --> 01:53:48,760
Speaker 3: You're not an NFL fan that, well, maybe I'm a

2223
01:53:48,960 --> 01:53:52,120
Speaker 3: Justin Herbert. No, no, no, I'm talking about you. All

2224
01:53:52,200 --> 01:53:54,880
Speaker 3: are the team you are, and you know how to

2225
01:53:54,920 --> 01:54:01,960
Speaker 3: define a fan. The Chargers are your team, your team.

2226
01:54:02,080 --> 01:54:04,519
Speaker 3: There is no other team. There's no you know, I

2227
01:54:04,840 --> 01:54:08,400
Speaker 3: might be no my son is that Okay? I'm trying

2228
01:54:08,439 --> 01:54:12,400
Speaker 3: to find at Cannon Hartman how many people can identify

2229
01:54:12,439 --> 01:54:14,760
Speaker 3: them You remember we saw that math a couple years ago.

2230
01:54:14,840 --> 01:54:18,960
Speaker 5: If you're like my mom, who liked the Chargers the

2231
01:54:19,000 --> 01:54:20,640
Speaker 5: most of all the teams I played for because she

2232
01:54:20,720 --> 01:54:22,440
Speaker 5: loved the powder blue uniforms.

2233
01:54:22,800 --> 01:54:26,719
Speaker 2: Now, she was just like, those are those gorgeous Richard

2234
01:54:27,040 --> 01:54:28,360
Speaker 2: you look so good.

2235
01:54:28,160 --> 01:54:30,599
Speaker 5: With you tell them to wear the baby.

2236
01:54:31,840 --> 01:54:34,240
Speaker 3: You remember we had that map of the United States

2237
01:54:34,240 --> 01:54:37,000
Speaker 3: of every county in the United States. Yeah, yeah, So

2238
01:54:37,080 --> 01:54:41,000
Speaker 3: they have this map of thousands of counties throughout the

2239
01:54:41,160 --> 01:54:47,200
Speaker 3: entire United States, and they identified the favorite NFL team

2240
01:54:47,680 --> 01:54:52,080
Speaker 3: in every single minuscule county in the United States, and

2241
01:54:52,120 --> 01:54:55,240
Speaker 3: the Chargers showed up in like five.

2242
01:54:55,520 --> 01:55:00,800
Speaker 5: We was San Diego. Obviously, it was one air of Texas.

2243
01:55:00,880 --> 01:55:04,720
Speaker 5: I fire remembering correct, very remote, like in Tennessee or so. Yeah,

2244
01:55:04,760 --> 01:55:06,960
Speaker 5: there was one in Tennessee, one county in Tennessee, and

2245
01:55:07,000 --> 01:55:09,120
Speaker 5: then there was one county in Alabama. And I'm pretty

2246
01:55:09,120 --> 01:55:10,440
Speaker 5: sure that's where Philip.

2247
01:55:10,160 --> 01:55:12,520
Speaker 2: Rivers was born, Giant Mapp and he obviously had a

2248
01:55:12,520 --> 01:55:15,960
Speaker 2: lot of Cowboys and Steelers and Packers and Patriots. All

2249
01:55:16,960 --> 01:55:19,680
Speaker 2: there was was our Teina had fewer counties than the Chargers.

2250
01:55:19,800 --> 01:55:20,320
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

2251
01:55:20,680 --> 01:55:24,400
Speaker 5: I'm gonna give you another stat So along with the

2252
01:55:24,480 --> 01:55:27,760
Speaker 5: Chargers getting six, how about the teams that have no

2253
01:55:27,920 --> 01:55:32,240
Speaker 5: primetime games, and there's four of them. It's Atlanta, It's

2254
01:55:32,280 --> 01:55:35,480
Speaker 5: the Cardinals, it's the Colts, and it's the Texans. Now

2255
01:55:35,520 --> 01:55:38,360
Speaker 5: the Colts and the Texans took us quarterback in the

2256
01:55:38,360 --> 01:55:41,920
Speaker 5: top five. You're talking about Kyler Murray being factored out

2257
01:55:42,160 --> 01:55:44,560
Speaker 5: and Atlanta, granted, I mean there's not a lot of

2258
01:55:44,600 --> 01:55:47,760
Speaker 5: juice there, but they also have zero primetime games right now.

2259
01:55:48,280 --> 01:55:52,520
Speaker 5: It is amazing how many primetime games there are now

2260
01:55:53,120 --> 01:55:55,800
Speaker 5: as opposed to years ago. And the fact that there

2261
01:55:55,840 --> 01:55:57,840
Speaker 5: are more teams than I think ever who have been

2262
01:55:57,920 --> 01:56:00,680
Speaker 5: left out of the primetime but they look, this is

2263
01:56:00,720 --> 01:56:04,160
Speaker 5: the modern NFL. Their rewarding teams who either a are

2264
01:56:04,200 --> 01:56:07,160
Speaker 5: playing in huge markets or b have huge, big time

2265
01:56:07,240 --> 01:56:09,360
Speaker 5: names at quarterback. That's really what it comes down to.

2266
01:56:09,480 --> 01:56:09,760
Speaker 1: All right.

2267
01:56:09,800 --> 01:56:12,360
Speaker 2: By the way, no responses so far, there is not it.

2268
01:56:12,560 --> 01:56:14,360
Speaker 2: I knew this was gonna happen with the Chargers.

2269
01:56:14,440 --> 01:56:17,560
Speaker 3: All right, the Celtics and Sixers have tipped it off.

2270
01:56:17,920 --> 01:56:20,760
Speaker 3: We're gonna keep you updated. This is Fox Sports Sunday,

2271
01:56:21,720 --> 01:56:25,040
Speaker 3: Steve Harvey, Rich Hornberger, Fox Sports Sunday. We are live

2272
01:56:25,080 --> 01:56:29,760
Speaker 3: from the Tyraq dot Com studios. All right, we got

2273
01:56:29,800 --> 01:56:31,800
Speaker 3: off to a big start for the Celtics, eight to

2274
01:56:31,880 --> 01:56:34,040
Speaker 3: two run to start it. But since then it's been

2275
01:56:34,080 --> 01:56:37,560
Speaker 3: all Sixers and they have now taken a ten to

2276
01:56:37,640 --> 01:56:41,640
Speaker 3: eight lead. And again, guys, we've been watching early on

2277
01:56:41,680 --> 01:56:45,120
Speaker 3: in this game, Jason Tatum being one of them. They

2278
01:56:45,280 --> 01:56:47,160
Speaker 3: posted a stead he actually made a shot in the

2279
01:56:47,160 --> 01:56:50,440
Speaker 3: first quarter, which, based on this series, was news because

2280
01:56:50,440 --> 01:56:52,040
Speaker 3: he hasn't done much of anything.

2281
01:56:51,720 --> 01:56:55,280
Speaker 2: In the early portion of these games. Was news. It

2282
01:56:55,320 --> 01:56:58,120
Speaker 2: was news like he was like, Wow, by the.

2283
01:56:58,080 --> 01:57:02,280
Speaker 3: Way, they're posting some numbers of game seven performance not bad,

2284
01:57:02,440 --> 01:57:03,200
Speaker 3: and there I mean.

2285
01:57:03,200 --> 01:57:05,200
Speaker 2: Is three point percentages off the charts.

2286
01:57:05,280 --> 01:57:08,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, the most fifty percent nearing fifty percent from

2287
01:57:08,320 --> 01:57:11,200
Speaker 5: the field, averaging close to twenty five points per game

2288
01:57:11,280 --> 01:57:12,520
Speaker 5: sevens that he's played in.

2289
01:57:12,560 --> 01:57:14,720
Speaker 3: And again, that dog game he had against the Warriors

2290
01:57:14,720 --> 01:57:16,440
Speaker 3: at home last year, that was a game six.

2291
01:57:16,480 --> 01:57:19,839
Speaker 5: Look, if there's any halo effect from how he played

2292
01:57:20,480 --> 01:57:23,320
Speaker 5: in Game six into Game seven, this is going to

2293
01:57:23,360 --> 01:57:26,720
Speaker 5: be a runaway for the Boston Celtics. However, I will

2294
01:57:26,760 --> 01:57:30,920
Speaker 5: say this, what the what the Sixers are doing as

2295
01:57:30,920 --> 01:57:34,680
Speaker 5: predicted is getting the ball into their playmakers' hands. But

2296
01:57:34,760 --> 01:57:38,800
Speaker 5: what they're doing Embiid and James Harden is kicking to

2297
01:57:38,880 --> 01:57:42,720
Speaker 5: the perimeter and they're making some wide open threes. So

2298
01:57:43,320 --> 01:57:45,920
Speaker 5: Boston's got to do a better job in you know,

2299
01:57:46,160 --> 01:57:50,240
Speaker 5: man to man defense, and they have to take away

2300
01:57:50,280 --> 01:57:54,560
Speaker 5: the perimeter shot. Otherwise this Philadelphia seventy six ers team

2301
01:57:54,640 --> 01:57:55,840
Speaker 5: is going to keep it close all day.

2302
01:57:56,040 --> 01:57:56,280
Speaker 2: Yeah.

2303
01:57:56,320 --> 01:57:58,800
Speaker 3: I mean, they're doing the same thing again, Harden getting

2304
01:57:58,880 --> 01:58:01,760
Speaker 3: into the lane and that's always a big part of this.

2305
01:58:02,360 --> 01:58:05,920
Speaker 3: Nice pass by James Harden. So fifteen to ten Philadelphia.

2306
01:58:06,000 --> 01:58:08,640
Speaker 3: But this is interesting because I'm watching the Celtics right

2307
01:58:08,680 --> 01:58:11,800
Speaker 3: now struggle defensively early in this game. This is a

2308
01:58:11,840 --> 01:58:15,160
Speaker 3: team that had more players get All Defensive Team votes,

2309
01:58:15,560 --> 01:58:18,680
Speaker 3: more players get Defensive Player of the Year votes than

2310
01:58:18,680 --> 01:58:22,800
Speaker 3: any other team. So based on personnel, this is considered

2311
01:58:23,520 --> 01:58:27,480
Speaker 3: the best team defense. But right now they're going to

2312
01:58:27,560 --> 01:58:30,240
Speaker 3: have to make some adjustments. Philadelphia up five early in

2313
01:58:30,280 --> 01:58:34,720
Speaker 3: this game, and all right, well there, you know, Tatum's

2314
01:58:34,720 --> 01:58:37,680
Speaker 3: a key in this game? Really is again you when

2315
01:58:37,680 --> 01:58:40,320
Speaker 3: you when you get down to these kind of games

2316
01:58:40,920 --> 01:58:42,320
Speaker 3: and Tatum's off to a good start.

2317
01:58:43,080 --> 01:58:44,520
Speaker 2: Your stars have to show up.

2318
01:58:44,600 --> 01:58:47,120
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean that's why you're being paid thirty

2319
01:58:47,200 --> 01:58:51,120
Speaker 3: forty million dollars a year for games exactly like this.

2320
01:58:52,520 --> 01:58:54,800
Speaker 5: Either your stars have to show up or the officiating

2321
01:58:54,840 --> 01:58:58,080
Speaker 5: crew for the Celtics has to show up. Because Doc Rivers,

2322
01:58:58,160 --> 01:59:01,200
Speaker 5: if there's one big takeaway from his Game six post

2323
01:59:01,200 --> 01:59:06,080
Speaker 5: game was he was disappointed in the officiating that the

2324
01:59:06,120 --> 01:59:10,400
Speaker 5: Sixers underwent throughout the course of Game six. And for

2325
01:59:10,520 --> 01:59:12,920
Speaker 5: obvious reasons. There's a lot of people who can who

2326
01:59:12,960 --> 01:59:15,760
Speaker 5: think that the NBA is conspiring to keep the Boston

2327
01:59:15,840 --> 01:59:20,080
Speaker 5: late into this NBA postseason. But we'll see what happens

2328
01:59:20,080 --> 01:59:23,400
Speaker 5: here home floor. You know that Boston's gonna get some calls,

2329
01:59:23,520 --> 01:59:25,680
Speaker 5: but we'll see what the disparity looks like. Come then

2330
01:59:25,760 --> 01:59:26,160
Speaker 5: to the game.

2331
01:59:26,200 --> 01:59:28,880
Speaker 3: Well, we had an on each situation, Tobias Harris going

2332
01:59:28,880 --> 01:59:30,240
Speaker 3: down and paying a lot of guys go down in

2333
01:59:30,320 --> 01:59:33,560
Speaker 3: pain these days. Oh yeah, yeah, No, very soccer like that.

2334
01:59:33,680 --> 01:59:35,800
Speaker 5: I mean there are occasions where a guy might even

2335
01:59:35,840 --> 01:59:37,280
Speaker 5: say I can't feel my own.

2336
01:59:37,000 --> 01:59:39,320
Speaker 2: It wasn't an ad He was in a wheelchair.

2337
01:59:39,800 --> 01:59:42,040
Speaker 5: Yes, he got hit in the head very hard by

2338
01:59:42,160 --> 01:59:45,960
Speaker 5: Kevon Looney and he seemed to be wheeled effect. No, No,

2339
01:59:46,000 --> 01:59:48,760
Speaker 5: he came back because you know he was. He was okay,

2340
01:59:48,760 --> 01:59:51,480
Speaker 5: it was ro Can. Either one of these teams beat

2341
01:59:51,520 --> 01:59:54,920
Speaker 5: the Miami Heat. We tillic talk some NBA here on

2342

Speaker 5: Fox Sports Radio.

2343

2353
02:00:22,000 --> 02:00:26,080
Speaker 3: I put out earlier on the show. We are trying

2354
02:00:26,120 --> 02:00:31,520
Speaker 3: to identify whether there were any true Chargers fans, True

2355
02:00:31,600 --> 02:00:37,200
Speaker 3: Chargers fans, and I got a couple on Twitter. Here

2356
02:00:38,680 --> 02:00:41,920
Speaker 3: here's one. I am a die hard Chargers fan through

2357
02:00:41,960 --> 02:00:44,839
Speaker 3: and through. I love my Chargers ever since I started

2358
02:00:44,840 --> 02:00:47,680
Speaker 3: watching football at a young age. All right, that sounds

2359
02:00:47,680 --> 02:00:51,680
Speaker 3: like a Chargers fan. Here's another one, Bolt's power. I've

2360
02:00:51,680 --> 02:00:53,000
Speaker 3: been a Chargers.

2361
02:00:52,560 --> 02:00:55,640
Speaker 2: Fan since they returned to LA. Well, first of all,

2362
02:00:55,760 --> 02:00:57,520
Speaker 2: you return to LA.

2363
02:00:57,760 --> 02:00:58,680
Speaker 5: They were there for a year.

2364
02:01:00,560 --> 02:01:02,320
Speaker 3: You remember we were doing that old thing about the

2365
02:01:02,400 --> 02:01:06,440
Speaker 3: Chargers returning to LA. In the games I've attended so

2366
02:01:06,440 --> 02:01:08,560
Speaker 3: far over the last few years, the Charger fan base

2367
02:01:08,600 --> 02:01:11,720
Speaker 3: has definitely grown and will continue to do with Herbert

2368
02:01:11,760 --> 02:01:13,600
Speaker 3: and the competitive team they have put together.

2369
02:01:13,680 --> 02:01:16,160
Speaker 5: Now that I don't disagree with, I will say this

2370
02:01:16,280 --> 02:01:22,160
Speaker 5: about fan bases. If you have a franchise quarterback and

2371
02:01:22,240 --> 02:01:24,920
Speaker 5: one is talented as justin herb but I think he's sensational.

2372
02:01:25,040 --> 02:01:25,600
Speaker 2: What's he won?

2373
02:01:26,560 --> 02:01:28,720
Speaker 5: You mean in terms of postseason games?

2374
02:01:28,760 --> 02:01:33,080
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, yeah, he's beginning to mirror his predecessor

2375
02:01:33,760 --> 02:01:36,320
Speaker 3: Philip Rivers. You know, a guy who's obviously a super

2376
02:01:36,440 --> 02:01:39,280
Speaker 3: quarterback got to win some big games if you want

2377
02:01:39,280 --> 02:01:40,840
Speaker 3: to put yourself in the when you look at the

2378
02:01:40,880 --> 02:01:44,680
Speaker 3: AFC right now, and obviously you got Mahomes and you

2379
02:01:44,920 --> 02:01:49,640
Speaker 3: got Allen and you got Burrow, I mean, you know,

2380
02:01:50,040 --> 02:01:52,080
Speaker 3: and not only that, he just got out dueled by

2381
02:01:52,320 --> 02:01:55,560
Speaker 3: a quarterback in Jacksonville. So I'm trying to figure out

2382
02:01:55,600 --> 02:01:58,160
Speaker 3: where the you know, Lamar Jackson's in the l He's

2383
02:01:58,160 --> 02:02:00,320
Speaker 3: a young quarterback too, yeah, he is, you know, and

2384
02:02:00,400 --> 02:02:03,760
Speaker 3: he's going to have to start winning game. He can't

2385
02:02:03,800 --> 02:02:07,200
Speaker 3: blow games like that. Well all right, yes, because that's

2386
02:02:07,240 --> 02:02:08,360
Speaker 3: his one playoff game.

2387
02:02:08,440 --> 02:02:12,360
Speaker 5: So I do agree that he will have to win

2388
02:02:12,400 --> 02:02:15,160
Speaker 5: playoff games if he was going to go down, notably

2389
02:02:15,320 --> 02:02:18,280
Speaker 5: as a great quarterback in the future. But this, this

2390
02:02:18,320 --> 02:02:22,920
Speaker 5: guy who's three years into his career, yeah, was springboarded

2391
02:02:22,960 --> 02:02:26,120
Speaker 5: into his career off of an injury to the veterans

2392
02:02:26,120 --> 02:02:28,560
Speaker 5: starting quarterback in front of him, and then dueled with

2393
02:02:28,680 --> 02:02:32,160
Speaker 5: then reigning Super Bowl champs who are actually the reigning

2394
02:02:32,200 --> 02:02:36,880
Speaker 5: Super Bowl champs this year coincidentally, the Kansas City Chiefs,

2395
02:02:36,960 --> 02:02:39,800
Speaker 5: and showed out took them to overtime, look great in

2396
02:02:39,840 --> 02:02:43,200
Speaker 5: the start, and has never looked back. Justin Herbert is

2397
02:02:43,240 --> 02:02:46,520
Speaker 5: a special talent. There's no questioning that can the Chargers

2398
02:02:46,560 --> 02:02:49,800
Speaker 5: assemble a roster around him that either A is talented

2399
02:02:49,920 --> 02:02:52,720
Speaker 5: enough or B can stay on the field and not

2400
02:02:52,760 --> 02:02:55,240
Speaker 5: get injured enough that they can make a deep run.

2401
02:02:56,040 --> 02:02:59,320
Speaker 5: I mean, I want to be critical of the Chargers

2402
02:02:59,480 --> 02:03:02,560
Speaker 5: game play more than I want to be critical of

2403
02:03:02,720 --> 02:03:06,320
Speaker 5: Justin Herbert and his game play. Even in that postseason

2404
02:03:06,360 --> 02:03:10,320
Speaker 5: appearance against Jacksonville they got out coached. But there will

2405
02:03:10,360 --> 02:03:13,520
Speaker 5: come a certain point, and this happens to any great

2406
02:03:13,600 --> 02:03:19,840
Speaker 5: quarterback who struggles in elimination games and clutch moments in

2407
02:03:20,120 --> 02:03:22,440
Speaker 5: whether it's in the regular season or in the postseason,

2408
02:03:22,440 --> 02:03:25,680
Speaker 5: because you can be eliminated in the regular season. If

2409
02:03:25,680 --> 02:03:28,560
Speaker 5: he doesn't start showing up, then that conversation can be had.

2410
02:03:28,560 --> 02:03:29,440
Speaker 5: I think it's too early.

2411
02:03:29,480 --> 02:03:33,560
Speaker 3: Still, well again, interesting note here on his predecessors. I

2412
02:03:33,560 --> 02:03:35,520
Speaker 3: can't believe we're talking charges, but I want to fill

2413
02:03:35,560 --> 02:03:38,880
Speaker 3: your interested thought here. Mike McCoy, who you played for,

2414
02:03:39,000 --> 02:03:42,600
Speaker 3: and Anthony Lynn his successor. Both of them had winning

2415
02:03:42,760 --> 02:03:45,200
Speaker 3: seasons in their first two years as the coach of

2416
02:03:45,240 --> 02:03:49,080
Speaker 3: the Chargers. Both actually won a playoff game within their

2417
02:03:49,080 --> 02:03:51,760
Speaker 3: first two years of being the Chargers head coach. For

2418
02:03:51,880 --> 02:03:54,640
Speaker 3: both of them, the next two seasons or losing seasons

2419
02:03:54,640 --> 02:03:58,080
Speaker 3: and they would lose their so Honestly, at this point,

2420
02:03:58,080 --> 02:04:02,000
Speaker 3: Brandon Staley is the worst record wise at this point

2421
02:04:02,040 --> 02:04:04,880
Speaker 3: of his coaching career in the Tom te LESCo era.

2422
02:04:05,720 --> 02:04:09,120
Speaker 3: And again, I don't know how many general managers who

2423
02:04:09,160 --> 02:04:13,040
Speaker 3: have an overall losing record over a decade still have

2424
02:04:13,120 --> 02:04:15,600
Speaker 3: a job, But this tells you a lot about the

2425
02:04:15,720 --> 02:04:19,240
Speaker 3: organization because again, when you're president of football operations is

2426
02:04:19,240 --> 02:04:21,880
Speaker 3: the owner's son and his best friend happens to be

2427
02:04:21,920 --> 02:04:23,400
Speaker 3: the general manager of the team.

2428
02:04:23,760 --> 02:04:25,680
Speaker 2: That's a pretty good way to have job security.

2429
02:04:25,800 --> 02:04:28,560
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, if you're a Chargers fan, it may not be

2430
02:04:28,640 --> 02:04:31,440
Speaker 3: the best formula to get where you ultimately want to get,

2431
02:04:31,760 --> 02:04:33,400
Speaker 3: and that is to the Super Bowl.

2432
02:04:33,480 --> 02:04:38,840
Speaker 5: I played with the Chargers in twenty thirteen, that playoff

2433
02:04:39,080 --> 02:04:43,080
Speaker 5: appearance in victory for Mike McCoy that year, and I

2434
02:04:43,120 --> 02:04:46,240
Speaker 5: can tell you something. Something happens when a new regime

2435
02:04:46,320 --> 02:04:48,560
Speaker 5: takes over but has trust in what the old regime

2436
02:04:48,600 --> 02:04:52,520
Speaker 5: put together. And that's the reason why we had success

2437
02:04:52,640 --> 02:04:55,760
Speaker 5: is there was this carryover effect and it was felt

2438
02:04:55,800 --> 02:04:57,240
Speaker 5: and it was known by a lot of the players.

2439
02:04:57,360 --> 02:04:59,080
Speaker 2: Don't underplay your role in this.

2440
02:04:59,320 --> 02:05:03,160
Speaker 3: Okay, So Nick Hardwick, legendary center, the Chargers gets banged up,

2441
02:05:04,040 --> 02:05:06,360
Speaker 3: they need somebody to step in in the big games

2442
02:05:06,400 --> 02:05:10,040
Speaker 3: down the stretch, and they reach out to rich Ornborough. Yeah,

2443
02:05:10,080 --> 02:05:13,960
Speaker 3: and I'm sorry. Weren't you there in the middle during

2444
02:05:13,960 --> 02:05:17,960
Speaker 3: that run? Yes, yes, okay, So I just I just

2445
02:05:18,000 --> 02:05:19,640
Speaker 3: want to clarify for the rest, all right.

2446
02:05:19,680 --> 02:05:21,760
Speaker 5: Well, but getting back to the point I was making,

2447
02:05:21,800 --> 02:05:24,520
Speaker 5: and it was a lot of fun, and that team

2448
02:05:24,640 --> 02:05:27,200
Speaker 5: was a lot of fun, but the team was broken apart,

2449
02:05:27,320 --> 02:05:29,320
Speaker 5: you know, because like a lot of teams, you go

2450
02:05:29,440 --> 02:05:32,720
Speaker 5: through that regime change. I want to build it in

2451
02:05:32,800 --> 02:05:35,680
Speaker 5: my own vision and to LESCo has done that a

2452
02:05:35,720 --> 02:05:37,560
Speaker 5: couple of times now, and he's been trusted to do

2453
02:05:37,600 --> 02:05:40,160
Speaker 5: that a couple of times now. I will argue, though,

2454
02:05:41,480 --> 02:05:46,280
Speaker 5: they are probably at a more secure point this offseason

2455
02:05:46,800 --> 02:05:50,880
Speaker 5: than in most of recent history with the Chargers, whether

2456
02:05:50,920 --> 02:05:54,600
Speaker 5: it be during their time recently as recent as since

2457
02:05:54,640 --> 02:05:58,120
Speaker 5: they left San Diego or in LA And I think

2458
02:05:58,160 --> 02:06:00,240
Speaker 5: that this is a team on paper and I you

2459
02:06:00,320 --> 02:06:02,920
Speaker 5: say this a lot about the Chargers. It feels like

2460
02:06:03,000 --> 02:06:05,640
Speaker 5: it's a broken record at this point. Yeah, on paper,

2461
02:06:05,680 --> 02:06:08,080
Speaker 5: this is a team who can contend in the AFC,

2462
02:06:08,280 --> 02:06:11,280
Speaker 5: There's no doubt in my mind. However, they need to

2463
02:06:11,320 --> 02:06:15,280
Speaker 5: stay healthy and Brandon Stally more importantly to me than

2464
02:06:15,520 --> 02:06:18,280
Speaker 5: Justin Herbert needs to prove that he can coach in

2465
02:06:18,360 --> 02:06:18,960
Speaker 5: big games.

2466
02:06:19,480 --> 02:06:21,480
Speaker 2: That's the big that's the big question mark.

2467
02:06:21,560 --> 02:06:25,160
Speaker 3: Look, it is no secret in sports that it all

2468
02:06:25,200 --> 02:06:27,520
Speaker 3: starts at the top. Let's look at the Steelers a

2469
02:06:27,600 --> 02:06:30,720
Speaker 3: year ago. How did that team end up the winning record?

2470
02:06:30,800 --> 02:06:31,680
Speaker 5: I have no idea.

2471
02:06:31,960 --> 02:06:37,440
Speaker 3: How did that team that in mid season look ridiculously

2472
02:06:37,480 --> 02:06:38,800
Speaker 3: bad with a rookie quarterback?

2473
02:06:38,840 --> 02:06:41,440
Speaker 2: Predictably, right, Kenny Big gets a rookie quarterback. He's got

2474
02:06:41,480 --> 02:06:42,720
Speaker 2: to learn stuff.

2475
02:06:43,640 --> 02:06:45,680
Speaker 3: When it was all said down the end of winning record,

2476
02:06:46,160 --> 02:06:49,360
Speaker 3: I don't mean I know, if anything, Mike Tomlin, who's

2477
02:06:49,400 --> 02:06:52,040
Speaker 3: already obviously got a Hall of Fame resume, just took

2478
02:06:52,040 --> 02:06:54,680
Speaker 3: it next level. Still hasn't had a losing record, which

2479
02:06:54,760 --> 02:06:57,320
Speaker 3: is a miracle. But that is that's to me as

2480
02:06:57,360 --> 02:06:58,240
Speaker 3: an organization.

2481
02:06:58,400 --> 02:07:02,440
Speaker 5: They finished their season, They finished their season with an

2482
02:07:02,560 --> 02:07:05,640
Speaker 5: unbelievable run of wins.

2483
02:07:05,560 --> 02:07:08,960
Speaker 3: And I'm like miracle wins, Like yeah, you know, like

2484
02:07:09,080 --> 02:07:11,879
Speaker 3: you're not blowing people away, but you know, just finding

2485
02:07:12,000 --> 02:07:12,680
Speaker 3: a way to win.

2486
02:07:12,880 --> 02:07:16,280
Speaker 5: They want to me is an organization. They won six

2487
02:07:16,320 --> 02:07:18,880
Speaker 5: of their last seven games. Yeah, they finished their season

2488
02:07:18,920 --> 02:07:20,320
Speaker 5: with a four game win stream.

2489
02:07:20,360 --> 02:07:20,520
Speaker 4: Yeah.

2490
02:07:20,520 --> 02:07:22,000
Speaker 2: How many of those were blowout wins?

2491
02:07:22,080 --> 02:07:26,160
Speaker 5: Oh? Not many of them? Now, I mean it was Cleveland, Cleveland,

2492
02:07:26,200 --> 02:07:30,160
Speaker 5: they beat them in the season the season capper twenty fourteen.

2493
02:07:30,200 --> 02:07:31,360
Speaker 5: But yeah, all of these.

2494
02:07:31,400 --> 02:07:33,400
Speaker 3: They're not putting up forty points. No, No, it was

2495
02:07:33,440 --> 02:07:36,280
Speaker 3: field goal? Yeah, go ahead, yes, Sam, what do you

2496
02:07:36,280 --> 02:07:39,040
Speaker 3: got buddy? Which offense was harder to watch last year?

2497
02:07:39,360 --> 02:07:42,360
Speaker 3: The Bucks, the Steelers, or Iowa Hawkeye football.

2498
02:07:42,640 --> 02:07:45,320
Speaker 10: Iowa stands alone. I don't know the other black and

2499
02:07:45,320 --> 02:07:47,120
Speaker 10: gold team. The Steelers is pretty tough to watch.

2500
02:07:47,160 --> 02:07:49,640
Speaker 2: The Iowa brought back the flying win.

2501
02:07:50,320 --> 02:07:53,360
Speaker 5: Yeah. The only thing that I will say, wetright into

2502
02:07:53,400 --> 02:07:57,920
Speaker 5: the dirt about the Steelers was that they they really

2503
02:07:58,000 --> 02:08:01,120
Speaker 5: didn't feel like Tomlin was making excuse like he was

2504
02:08:01,560 --> 02:08:04,160
Speaker 5: he was. He was saying, look, you know where this

2505
02:08:04,240 --> 02:08:06,000
Speaker 5: is gonna be rough like he was. He was in

2506
02:08:06,160 --> 02:08:08,600
Speaker 5: He wasn't polishing this up. He was like, we're young,

2507
02:08:08,720 --> 02:08:10,240
Speaker 5: we need to figure things out.

2508
02:08:10,480 --> 02:08:13,200
Speaker 2: I feel like in Iowa press conferences are like, we're

2509
02:08:13,200 --> 02:08:15,880
Speaker 2: gonna keep doing what we do like they were making

2510
02:08:16,080 --> 02:08:17,800
Speaker 2: We're just gonna do it better this year. Yeah, we're

2511
02:08:17,880 --> 02:08:21,680
Speaker 2: doing it was mid season. I remember I forget.

2512
02:08:21,400 --> 02:08:23,440
Speaker 5: Who was speaking was either the head coach or the

2513
02:08:23,480 --> 02:08:25,920
Speaker 5: offensive coordinator, and it was just like, you know what,

2514
02:08:25,960 --> 02:08:27,560
Speaker 5: we just got to stick to the plan. And I

2515
02:08:27,600 --> 02:08:31,960
Speaker 5: remember you pulling your hair out, like, no, no, don't

2516
02:08:32,400 --> 02:08:36,000
Speaker 5: don't stick to the plan. It was amazing. That season

2517
02:08:36,280 --> 02:08:37,320
Speaker 5: was amazing.

2518
02:08:37,560 --> 02:08:41,840
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I don't know, Kirk Farence, is it is

2519
02:08:41,880 --> 02:08:43,240
Speaker 2: it time to turn it?

2520
02:08:43,360 --> 02:08:45,760
Speaker 5: Mean to you, uh rope football this?

2521
02:08:46,080 --> 02:08:46,240
Speaker 2: Well?

2522
02:08:46,280 --> 02:08:48,640
Speaker 3: You you been, you brought it up, and now now

2523
02:08:48,680 --> 02:08:51,000
Speaker 3: you're questioning a guy that will be in the College

2524
02:08:51,000 --> 02:08:52,160
Speaker 3: Football Hall of Fame someday.

2525
02:08:52,240 --> 02:08:53,200
Speaker 5: You want him out, don't you.

2526
02:08:53,360 --> 02:08:56,080
Speaker 2: It's time to turn the page. Twenty fifth season? Well,

2527
02:08:56,120 --> 02:08:58,600
Speaker 2: I mean, how long? How long was Hayden Fry there?

2528
02:08:58,680 --> 02:09:01,120
Speaker 2: Twenty years? Twenty years? Then they turn the pay but

2529
02:09:01,200 --> 02:09:01,520
Speaker 2: they have.

2530
02:09:01,840 --> 02:09:04,080
Speaker 10: They have a former Wolverine at quarterback, they have a

2531
02:09:04,120 --> 02:09:05,520
Speaker 10: former Buckeye at wide receiver.

2532
02:09:05,640 --> 02:09:06,560
Speaker 5: They're gonna light it up.

2533
02:09:06,720 --> 02:09:09,560
Speaker 9: I can't believe that Iowa Sam found the way to

2534
02:09:09,600 --> 02:09:11,360
Speaker 9: get us talking about Iowa football.

2535
02:09:11,360 --> 02:09:13,480
Speaker 2: I didn't mean for this to happen. We're talking about,

2536
02:09:14,640 --> 02:09:18,600
Speaker 2: we're talking about Sam, why the Chargers would continue to

2537
02:09:19,000 --> 02:09:22,440
Speaker 2: struggle to make any advancement. Then I bring in the Steelers.

2538
02:09:22,480 --> 02:09:25,040
Speaker 3: Let's get back on, because they are in the organization

2539
02:09:25,160 --> 02:09:29,360
Speaker 3: that understands how to continue to win even when you're

2540
02:09:29,400 --> 02:09:32,400
Speaker 3: obviously in full remil rebuild mode.

2541
02:09:32,840 --> 02:09:36,320
Speaker 2: And somehow Iowa, Sam turned it into a hawkey. I'm sorry,

2542
02:09:36,360 --> 02:09:37,400
Speaker 2: We're will wait a few more.

2543
02:09:37,680 --> 02:09:41,120
Speaker 9: Game seven between the Sixers and the Celtics is super close,

2544
02:09:41,160 --> 02:09:42,720
Speaker 9: and Sam, let's talk about Kirk Farrence.

2545
02:09:43,000 --> 02:09:45,800
Speaker 3: Well, actually right now, now wait a second, I'm glad

2546
02:09:45,880 --> 02:09:46,680
Speaker 3: you brought that up.

2547
02:09:46,800 --> 02:09:49,760
Speaker 2: Bow mister Eagles fan. Are you a Sixers guy?

2548
02:09:50,360 --> 02:09:53,160
Speaker 9: Oh? You know question? I mean I like them, like

2549
02:09:53,240 --> 02:09:54,960
Speaker 9: I won't root against them or anything. I mean, you

2550
02:09:55,080 --> 02:09:57,720
Speaker 9: are the Lakers. If the Lakers play the Sixers in

2551
02:09:57,760 --> 02:10:00,400
Speaker 9: the finals, I will be rooting hard for their and ball.

2552
02:10:00,480 --> 02:10:04,360
Speaker 9: But Lakers, Eagles? What are your other teams?

2553
02:10:04,400 --> 02:10:04,879
Speaker 5: Dodgers?

2554
02:10:05,240 --> 02:10:08,480
Speaker 2: Dodgers? Can you can you Sooners?

2555
02:10:08,640 --> 02:10:08,800
Speaker 1: Well?

2556
02:10:08,880 --> 02:10:11,120
Speaker 3: Dogs doesn't get to Can you hold up your phone?

2557
02:10:11,520 --> 02:10:13,160
Speaker 3: Do you have your phone with you? You see the

2558
02:10:13,200 --> 02:10:13,800
Speaker 3: color on that?

2559
02:10:14,000 --> 02:10:14,160
Speaker 8: Yeah?

2560
02:10:14,280 --> 02:10:15,520
Speaker 2: Do do you have your backpack?

2561
02:10:15,600 --> 02:10:16,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's in the corner.

2562
02:10:16,880 --> 02:10:18,000
Speaker 9: But it is also Kelly Green.

2563
02:10:18,160 --> 02:10:19,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, so, I mean he's all it.

2564
02:10:20,080 --> 02:10:22,280
Speaker 9: We we didn't have football here in Los Angeles for

2565
02:10:22,320 --> 02:10:22,840
Speaker 9: a long time.

2566
02:10:22,960 --> 02:10:27,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, so everybody was a nomad. Jason Tatum, by the way,

2567
02:10:27,840 --> 02:10:31,560
Speaker 5: is having a game. Yeah, eleven first quarter points so far.

2568
02:10:31,800 --> 02:10:34,640
Speaker 5: Unfortunately nobody else is hitting. Six Ers are up by six.

2569
02:10:34,760 --> 02:10:37,440
Speaker 5: But I mean, if the question was is he going

2570
02:10:37,520 --> 02:10:40,400
Speaker 5: to show up today, the question has been answered. I mean,

2571
02:10:40,440 --> 02:10:42,480
Speaker 5: he's carrying over what he did in the fourth quarter

2572
02:10:42,480 --> 02:10:44,920
Speaker 5: of Game six here in Game seven against the Sixers,

2573
02:10:45,200 --> 02:10:47,360
Speaker 5: and you're right, he's really the only one doing work

2574
02:10:47,400 --> 02:10:51,760
Speaker 5: for this offense so far. But my goodness, timely.

2575
02:10:52,000 --> 02:10:54,080
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna check here because, like I said, I

2576
02:10:54,160 --> 02:10:56,640
Speaker 3: was talking of Jaylen Brown, who came into this game

2577
02:10:56,760 --> 02:10:59,560
Speaker 3: in this series shooting fifty six percent from the field

2578
02:11:00,040 --> 02:11:02,880
Speaker 3: and forty two percent from three point lands. So far

2579
02:11:03,000 --> 02:11:06,600
Speaker 3: in this game, Jalen Brown has taken a total of

2580
02:11:07,640 --> 02:11:08,360
Speaker 3: eight shots.

2581
02:11:08,680 --> 02:11:09,600
Speaker 2: He's three for eight.

2582
02:11:09,800 --> 02:11:12,520
Speaker 3: Actually, when you look at this team right now, Brogden,

2583
02:11:12,560 --> 02:11:15,040
Speaker 3: who was six Man of the Year, has no points.

2584
02:11:14,640 --> 02:11:15,240
Speaker 5: Off the bench.

2585
02:11:15,280 --> 02:11:18,120
Speaker 3: That's not gonna help, and the bigs aren't doing much

2586
02:11:18,120 --> 02:11:21,520
Speaker 3: of anything. So right now, Tatum, Brown holding up offensively

2587
02:11:22,000 --> 02:11:24,280
Speaker 3: as far as hard in his concern because I said

2588
02:11:24,280 --> 02:11:27,040
Speaker 3: how much importance it was to get him engaged. His

2589
02:11:27,200 --> 02:11:30,560
Speaker 3: two points, but his four assists, and I think most

2590
02:11:30,600 --> 02:11:32,440
Speaker 3: of those have ended up three point shots.

2591
02:11:32,560 --> 02:11:35,280
Speaker 2: And Beads got five points for so far. Actually the

2592
02:11:35,360 --> 02:11:37,720
Speaker 2: leading scorer for the Sixers, PJ. Tucker.

2593
02:11:37,880 --> 02:11:39,080
Speaker 5: Well, of course everybody saw that.

2594
02:11:39,120 --> 02:11:40,920
Speaker 2: What is he like fifty years old? How long is

2595
02:11:41,000 --> 02:11:42,240
Speaker 2: PJ Tucker around?

2596
02:11:42,800 --> 02:11:46,080
Speaker 3: Gezh All right, we'll continue our coverage of Game seven

2597
02:11:46,160 --> 02:11:49,640
Speaker 3: between the Celtics and the Sixers much more, also on

2598
02:11:49,680 --> 02:11:54,440
Speaker 3: the recently released NFL schedule. This is Fox Sports Sunday,

2599
02:11:55,120 --> 02:11:59,520
Speaker 3: Steve Harvin, Rich Harnberger, Fox Sports Sunday Live from the

2600
02:11:59,560 --> 02:12:01,160
Speaker 3: Tire dot Com Studios.

2601
02:12:02,320 --> 02:12:03,480
Speaker 2: Celtics are in trouble.

2602
02:12:03,520 --> 02:12:09,800
Speaker 3: Early thirty five, twenty six Sixers and do the math.

2603
02:12:10,120 --> 02:12:15,440
Speaker 3: Boston has twenty six points in fifteen minutes. That is

2604
02:12:15,480 --> 02:12:18,120
Speaker 3: not going to get it done. By the way Joe Missoula,

2605
02:12:18,840 --> 02:12:20,120
Speaker 3: I would I would say this.

2606
02:12:20,320 --> 02:12:23,360
Speaker 2: I know he's a rookie coach and maybe he's got

2607
02:12:23,400 --> 02:12:26,960
Speaker 2: to learn a few things, but if you lose this

2608
02:12:27,040 --> 02:12:33,240
Speaker 2: game at home, Game seven, hard Town, the way they're rifling,

2609
02:12:33,440 --> 02:12:37,800
Speaker 2: and again when you have coaches out there available, you know,

2610
02:12:37,920 --> 02:12:43,920
Speaker 2: guys that actually have championships on their resume. I mean, essentially,

2611
02:12:44,000 --> 02:12:47,160
Speaker 2: Missoula was an interim guy, right, I mean, they needed

2612
02:12:47,200 --> 02:12:49,440
Speaker 2: a coach in the worst way. They give this guy

2613
02:12:49,480 --> 02:12:55,400
Speaker 2: an opportunity, but right now they're on the the other

2614
02:12:55,520 --> 02:12:57,919
Speaker 2: end of it. Yeah, nine point lead for the Sixers.

2615
02:12:57,960 --> 02:13:01,800
Speaker 5: Look again, I understand where you come from, and a

2616
02:13:01,800 --> 02:13:04,920
Speaker 5: lot of people share this perspective that coaching really matters

2617
02:13:04,960 --> 02:13:09,160
Speaker 5: in the NBA and in the postseason it matters more.

2618
02:13:09,720 --> 02:13:12,400
Speaker 5: I'm not one of these people. I don't think it's

2619
02:13:12,440 --> 02:13:16,040
Speaker 5: as critical or crucial, but I do think that there

2620
02:13:16,120 --> 02:13:19,200
Speaker 5: is a blood loss amongst the fan base after a

2621
02:13:19,240 --> 02:13:22,120
Speaker 5: loss like this, and if they lose, because look, there's

2622
02:13:22,120 --> 02:13:23,720
Speaker 5: a lot of game left here. They're only in the

2623
02:13:23,760 --> 02:13:29,080
Speaker 5: second quarter here. But if this game is lost, then

2624
02:13:29,400 --> 02:13:32,640
Speaker 5: I could very easily see Missoula being the sacrificial lamb.

2625
02:13:32,720 --> 02:13:32,880
Speaker 2: Oh.

2626
02:13:33,000 --> 02:13:35,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, because what it says to your fan base is, look,

2627
02:13:36,440 --> 02:13:39,640
Speaker 5: we know there's a problem. We understand we're talented enough

2628
02:13:39,640 --> 02:13:43,080
Speaker 5: to play for an Eastern Conference final or an NBA final.

2629
02:13:43,520 --> 02:13:46,160
Speaker 5: We just need to find the right guy to lead

2630
02:13:46,240 --> 02:13:48,240
Speaker 5: us there. Meanwhile, they have all the parts they need

2631
02:13:48,880 --> 02:13:51,440
Speaker 5: They just need these guys to play better. Jalen Brown,

2632
02:13:51,560 --> 02:13:57,160
Speaker 5: Jason Tatum, the surrounding cast here. You have to get

2633
02:13:57,160 --> 02:14:01,120
Speaker 5: better play out of them. Horford Williams. They have the talent.

2634
02:14:01,520 --> 02:14:04,240
Speaker 5: This is ultimately one of the most talented teams in

2635
02:14:04,320 --> 02:14:08,000
Speaker 5: the NBA. And they're not injured. Although we're watching a

2636
02:14:08,000 --> 02:14:11,000
Speaker 5: Celtics player under the hoop right now suffering with something,

2637
02:14:11,280 --> 02:14:13,840
Speaker 5: but that that's that would be an excuse. It would

2638
02:14:13,840 --> 02:14:16,040
Speaker 5: be like, Okay, well they got hurt. Well they haven't,

2639
02:14:16,360 --> 02:14:20,960
Speaker 5: you know, so it's not Missoula. It's not Missoula. He's

2640
02:14:21,000 --> 02:14:24,800
Speaker 5: not the problem. It's it's underperforming Jellen Brown. By the way,

2641
02:14:24,880 --> 02:14:25,800
Speaker 5: is the Celtics.

2642
02:14:25,440 --> 02:14:28,320
Speaker 2: Who's It looked like he got hit in the eye.

2643
02:14:30,000 --> 02:14:32,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, it looked like he was going up to defend

2644
02:14:32,480 --> 02:14:35,840
Speaker 5: Harden who was driving the lane on a transition, But

2645
02:14:35,880 --> 02:14:37,480
Speaker 5: he might have gotten that pinky in his eye and

2646
02:14:37,520 --> 02:14:39,000
Speaker 5: never know it was a forearm.

2647
02:14:39,200 --> 02:14:42,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and by the way, it didn't look like accident.

2648
02:14:42,160 --> 02:14:47,640
Speaker 5: Well, I will say through that saw Game five Lakers Warriors,

2649
02:14:47,640 --> 02:14:49,280
Speaker 5: somebody get the wheelchair ready.

2650
02:14:49,040 --> 02:14:51,760
Speaker 2: Hold ones say, is that a flagrant? It could be

2651
02:14:52,280 --> 02:14:56,040
Speaker 2: that would that was a swinging forearm by oh.

2652
02:14:55,960 --> 02:14:58,040
Speaker 5: I'm seeing blood. He's bleeding from the lip.

2653
02:14:58,360 --> 02:15:02,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was that woul the off arm of the

2654
02:15:02,120 --> 02:15:05,360
Speaker 3: left handed hardened being thrown out at Jalen Brown.

2655
02:15:05,400 --> 02:15:10,160
Speaker 2: They're reviewing it right now. Yeah, that could line. That

2656
02:15:10,200 --> 02:15:14,120
Speaker 2: could be yeah, yeah, especially since it was a Celtic

2657
02:15:14,280 --> 02:15:15,480
Speaker 2: on the receiving.

2658
02:15:17,040 --> 02:15:19,040
Speaker 5: And if we are going to go back down the

2659
02:15:19,080 --> 02:15:23,200
Speaker 5: conspiracy theory rabbit hole, we are led to believe that

2660
02:15:23,240 --> 02:15:24,400
Speaker 5: the Celtics are gonna.

2661
02:15:25,280 --> 02:15:27,560
Speaker 3: So Harden goes up, the ball slips out of his hand,

2662
02:15:27,560 --> 02:15:30,560
Speaker 3: and then he throws out that forearm right into the

2663
02:15:30,600 --> 02:15:31,880
Speaker 3: face of Jalen Brown.

2664
02:15:31,960 --> 02:15:36,360
Speaker 2: Watch watches the ball flies and then he boom.

2665
02:15:37,560 --> 02:15:40,480
Speaker 5: But you know what thought at the time that happened.

2666
02:15:40,520 --> 02:15:43,160
Speaker 5: He was also reaching for the basketball that slipped out

2667
02:15:43,160 --> 02:15:43,680
Speaker 5: of his fingers.

2668
02:15:43,760 --> 02:15:45,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the basketball is going one direction and that

2669
02:15:45,720 --> 02:15:47,320
Speaker 2: elbow is going in a different direa Well.

2670
02:15:47,240 --> 02:15:49,000
Speaker 5: I know that, but I could make the argument he

2671
02:15:49,080 --> 02:15:52,040
Speaker 5: was trying to counterbalance himself and he's it floating through

2672
02:15:52,080 --> 02:15:53,800
Speaker 5: the air as this is all happening now.

2673
02:15:53,880 --> 02:15:55,800
Speaker 3: Of course, Jalen Brown wont in a heap, you know,

2674
02:15:55,880 --> 02:15:58,800
Speaker 3: face down up there talking about it right now. They're

2675
02:15:58,840 --> 02:16:02,640
Speaker 3: reminding each other with League saying the Celtics. You know

2676
02:16:03,560 --> 02:16:05,920
Speaker 3: this is if you missed the Doc Rivers you think

2677
02:16:06,000 --> 02:16:08,520
Speaker 3: came out of all the miscalls and bad calls out

2678
02:16:08,560 --> 02:16:11,120
Speaker 3: of Game six and it was very one sided in

2679
02:16:11,160 --> 02:16:14,960
Speaker 3: the Celtics favor and Doc Rivers obviously not happy about that,

2680
02:16:15,120 --> 02:16:17,120
Speaker 3: very disappointed. All right, do we have an update on

2681
02:16:17,160 --> 02:16:18,040
Speaker 3: what they're doing right now?

2682
02:16:18,080 --> 02:16:18,360
Speaker 2: Guys?

2683
02:16:18,360 --> 02:16:20,640
Speaker 3: What is the discussion there bo? What are they talking about?

2684
02:16:20,680 --> 02:16:22,680
Speaker 3: We can't hear we can see them talking about it.

2685
02:16:23,000 --> 02:16:25,720
Speaker 3: Are you think it's all flagrant? Is that impossible?

2686
02:16:25,960 --> 02:16:26,240
Speaker 1: Probably?

2687
02:16:26,320 --> 02:16:28,600
Speaker 9: Reviewing it? I mean it is Scott Foster. So that's

2688
02:16:28,640 --> 02:16:30,000
Speaker 9: the guy the NBA says.

2689
02:16:29,760 --> 02:16:32,240
Speaker 2: The initiate every game, well the ones.

2690
02:16:32,040 --> 02:16:34,240
Speaker 9: That the NBA needs a favorable outcome in.

2691
02:16:34,360 --> 02:16:38,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, this guy gets so much criticism. Chris

2692
02:16:38,920 --> 02:16:41,480
Speaker 2: Paul called flagrant. Chris Paul is not on the look

2693
02:16:41,520 --> 02:16:45,960
Speaker 2: at that one on Harden, I know it, I know it.

2694
02:16:46,200 --> 02:16:49,520
Speaker 2: There you go, flagrant one. Like you say, his arms

2695
02:16:49,520 --> 02:16:52,039
Speaker 2: are sort of flailing. Well, I will say this.

2696
02:16:52,320 --> 02:16:56,440
Speaker 5: I will say this though, if if the NBA wants

2697
02:16:56,440 --> 02:16:58,360
Speaker 5: the Celtics in the finals, that's the right call.

2698
02:16:58,879 --> 02:17:01,800
Speaker 2: That is the right call. I will say that. So

2699
02:17:02,000 --> 02:17:06,200
Speaker 2: now flagrant one. Harden's on warning.

2700
02:17:06,320 --> 02:17:08,959
Speaker 5: Well, let me tell you something. Now, he played with Paul,

2701
02:17:09,080 --> 02:17:11,120
Speaker 5: so he knows what it looks like when you're playing

2702
02:17:11,120 --> 02:17:15,760
Speaker 5: for a team that that Scott Foster is referring against,

2703
02:17:16,240 --> 02:17:18,120
Speaker 5: and so he's keeping his mouth show.

2704
02:17:18,160 --> 02:17:20,000
Speaker 2: Well, look at he's got something in his nose that

2705
02:17:20,280 --> 02:17:22,200
Speaker 2: leaning like, Oh, I thought it was from his lip.

2706
02:17:22,800 --> 02:17:24,080
Speaker 5: I'll tell you what. He drew blood.

2707
02:17:24,560 --> 02:17:27,560
Speaker 2: He drew blood and he's shitting technical. I still think

2708
02:17:27,560 --> 02:17:29,200
Speaker 2: they should get a wheelchair out for him.

2709
02:17:29,560 --> 02:17:32,520
Speaker 5: I don't know why. I mean, I'm when you see

2710
02:17:32,640 --> 02:17:35,160
Speaker 5: a player get hit with a forearm to his head, which,

2711
02:17:35,200 --> 02:17:37,560
Speaker 5: by the way, if we're going to rate forearm shots

2712
02:17:37,560 --> 02:17:40,600
Speaker 5: to heads, the forum shot that Jyllen Brown just took

2713
02:17:40,640 --> 02:17:43,320
Speaker 5: to his head, which, by the way, he stuffed something

2714
02:17:43,400 --> 02:17:46,120
Speaker 5: up his nose and he finished two successful free throw

2715
02:17:46,120 --> 02:17:49,320
Speaker 5: attempts as a result of the foul, If we're going

2716
02:17:49,400 --> 02:17:52,280
Speaker 5: to rate that against Anthony Davis for him for yeah,

2717
02:17:52,440 --> 02:17:54,920
Speaker 5: forearm shot he took to his head. This was like,

2718
02:17:55,480 --> 02:17:59,040
Speaker 5: this was like a nine on the Richter scale, in

2719
02:17:59,120 --> 02:18:00,879
Speaker 5: Anthony Davis's was like a one.

2720
02:18:00,920 --> 02:18:04,320
Speaker 3: Well, here here's what just happened. So they Philly had

2721
02:18:04,360 --> 02:18:07,959
Speaker 3: the ball and an eight point lead. Now Boston has

2722
02:18:08,000 --> 02:18:09,560
Speaker 3: the ball down six and now it's four.

2723
02:18:09,879 --> 02:18:10,959
Speaker 5: There you go, so.

2724
02:18:12,840 --> 02:18:16,039
Speaker 3: Quick and quick, you're right back in that game. So

2725
02:18:16,160 --> 02:18:19,240
Speaker 3: there you go, Scott Foster. Can you imagine if he

2726
02:18:19,240 --> 02:18:21,240
Speaker 3: had been officiating back in the days when he had

2727
02:18:21,240 --> 02:18:24,000
Speaker 3: like a Bill Lambert on the court, you know, just

2728
02:18:24,160 --> 02:18:27,959
Speaker 3: literally punching, taking punches that form of the NBA.

2729
02:18:27,959 --> 02:18:31,400
Speaker 5: I think we got fo Now it's a two point game.

2730
02:18:32,280 --> 02:18:33,560
Speaker 5: This is pretty und.

2731
02:18:33,400 --> 02:18:36,760
Speaker 3: It's amazing how this all turned around just rapidly in

2732
02:18:36,879 --> 02:18:37,960
Speaker 3: the Celtics favor.

2733
02:18:38,879 --> 02:18:41,800
Speaker 2: All right, yeah, yeah.

2734
02:18:41,240 --> 02:18:44,200
Speaker 3: Getting back to the NFL for a moment here, as

2735
02:18:44,520 --> 02:18:47,959
Speaker 3: we examine what the NFL schedule has, there is a

2736
02:18:48,040 --> 02:18:51,240
Speaker 3: new dynamic in the NFL rich and that is is

2737
02:18:51,280 --> 02:18:55,519
Speaker 3: that we are no longer absolutely married network to conference.

2738
02:18:56,320 --> 02:19:00,640
Speaker 3: In other words, Fox and NBS are Fox and CBS.

2739
02:19:00,720 --> 02:19:04,760
Speaker 3: They get to protect a game each week. But pretty

2740
02:19:04,800 --> 02:19:07,240
Speaker 3: much what we're seeing and the course they'll still come

2741
02:19:07,320 --> 02:19:11,200
Speaker 3: up with a decision about, you know, changing the Thursday

2742
02:19:11,280 --> 02:19:14,040
Speaker 3: night schedule and everything else with a couple of weeks. Notice,

2743
02:19:14,360 --> 02:19:18,640
Speaker 3: but we are looking at free agency in terms of

2744
02:19:18,760 --> 02:19:22,800
Speaker 3: NFL games every week. And I was talking yesterday with

2745
02:19:22,840 --> 02:19:26,480
Speaker 3: Adam Kaplan. Are we heading in that direction. We should

2746
02:19:26,520 --> 02:19:30,720
Speaker 3: where the NFL looks at each week's schedule and say,

2747
02:19:30,879 --> 02:19:35,240
Speaker 3: all right, we show us bidder gets to air that game.

2748
02:19:36,080 --> 02:19:38,000
Speaker 5: First of all, it'll be better for the players. So

2749
02:19:38,040 --> 02:19:40,360
Speaker 5: you know, I support that because the former players will

2750
02:19:40,400 --> 02:19:42,280
Speaker 5: benefit from that as well. And I happen to be

2751
02:19:42,320 --> 02:19:46,080
Speaker 5: a former player. So the larger pool of money being

2752
02:19:46,160 --> 02:19:50,040
Speaker 5: spread between the owners and the players benefits everybody who's

2753
02:19:50,040 --> 02:19:54,000
Speaker 5: played the game or is playing the game. Great second thing,

2754
02:19:54,200 --> 02:19:57,600
Speaker 5: second part of it is it should be a little

2755
02:19:57,640 --> 02:20:01,119
Speaker 5: bit of name your price for these the networks. Because

2756
02:20:01,760 --> 02:20:05,160
Speaker 5: if you sign up, for example, like Amazon for an

2757
02:20:05,160 --> 02:20:08,400
Speaker 5: eleven billion dollar, eleven year deal, and so you're paying

2758
02:20:08,440 --> 02:20:12,520
Speaker 5: a billion dollars for your opening salvo as a primetime network,

2759
02:20:12,560 --> 02:20:13,879
Speaker 5: that streaming network, and you.

2760
02:20:13,840 --> 02:20:16,200
Speaker 2: Got stuck with a lot of dog Thursday night games.

2761
02:20:16,240 --> 02:20:17,080
Speaker 2: They were awful.

2762
02:20:17,160 --> 02:20:19,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were off, only made worse by Al Michael's

2763
02:20:19,640 --> 02:20:20,480
Speaker 3: complaining about it.

2764
02:20:20,520 --> 02:20:24,120
Speaker 5: Don't you think the board at Amazon would have ponied

2765
02:20:24,240 --> 02:20:28,320
Speaker 5: up to slide a better matchup into their slot.

2766
02:20:28,440 --> 02:20:31,440
Speaker 2: Well, they're gonna give them, I would now they're gonna

2767
02:20:31,440 --> 02:20:31,720
Speaker 2: get it.

2768
02:20:31,840 --> 02:20:34,920
Speaker 3: But think about that. I mean it may sound extreme,

2769
02:20:34,959 --> 02:20:37,200
Speaker 3: There is no extreme. If there's a means to make

2770
02:20:37,280 --> 02:20:41,160
Speaker 3: even more money. You literally week to week have an

2771
02:20:41,240 --> 02:20:46,039
Speaker 3: open highest bidder, and then of course, every every network,

2772
02:20:46,080 --> 02:20:49,119
Speaker 3: every streaming at whatever, or whoever's involved says, okay, well

2773
02:20:49,120 --> 02:20:51,280
Speaker 3: we only have so much money, or should we spend

2774
02:20:51,320 --> 02:20:53,320
Speaker 3: it on this game wait a week or whatever.

2775
02:20:53,480 --> 02:20:56,240
Speaker 5: Week to week, like you could offer it to one

2776
02:20:56,280 --> 02:20:59,600
Speaker 5: in the networks like, well it's Amazon's turn. You know

2777
02:20:59,640 --> 02:21:01,520
Speaker 5: what if if you want to flex out your game

2778
02:21:01,560 --> 02:21:03,080
Speaker 5: and put a different game in the we.

2779
02:21:03,120 --> 02:21:07,160
Speaker 2: Got Bengals Chiefs this week regular season. The only problem though,

2780
02:21:07,240 --> 02:21:08,279
Speaker 2: is Thursday night football.

2781
02:21:08,680 --> 02:21:12,680
Speaker 5: Right. So that's where this gets tricky because in concept,

2782
02:21:12,680 --> 02:21:14,840
Speaker 5: I'm loving this idea. The more money for the players

2783
02:21:14,840 --> 02:21:16,560
Speaker 5: and everything, I'm loving an idea. But here's where you

2784
02:21:16,640 --> 02:21:19,560
Speaker 5: run into a difficulty. So if you want to flex

2785
02:21:19,600 --> 02:21:23,400
Speaker 5: a game into Thursday night, say you give Amazon I

2786
02:21:23,400 --> 02:21:27,560
Speaker 5: don't know, four opportunities throughout the NFL season to do this. Well,

2787
02:21:27,600 --> 02:21:31,160
Speaker 5: that means potentially the same team could end up playing

2788
02:21:31,720 --> 02:21:34,199
Speaker 5: multiple and I do mean like say three or four

2789
02:21:34,280 --> 02:21:39,080
Speaker 5: potentially primetime games on Thursday night football. Now, it may

2790
02:21:39,120 --> 02:21:41,240
Speaker 5: be great for the money for the league and the

2791
02:21:41,280 --> 02:21:44,160
Speaker 5: players in terms of salary cap and all those things

2792
02:21:44,200 --> 02:21:45,000
Speaker 5: that go up with that.

2793
02:21:45,160 --> 02:21:48,360
Speaker 2: But player safety, player health, I mean, that's a big

2794
02:21:48,400 --> 02:21:51,320
Speaker 2: part of window when we talk about flexing out. So

2795
02:21:51,360 --> 02:21:53,400
Speaker 2: they said, all right, the only way to flex out

2796
02:21:53,400 --> 02:21:55,720
Speaker 2: a Thursday night game is if you give them multiple

2797
02:21:55,760 --> 02:22:00,440
Speaker 2: weeks advance, well multiple weeks in the NFL, I mean

2798
02:22:00,680 --> 02:22:03,080
Speaker 2: you flex out of game saying all right, that's the matchup,

2799
02:22:03,080 --> 02:22:04,200
Speaker 2: and then quarterback goes down.

2800
02:22:04,320 --> 02:22:08,080
Speaker 5: Yeah now what Yeah, now we're stucked the disaster, right.

2801
02:22:08,120 --> 02:22:11,600
Speaker 5: I mean, the Ravens no offense to Huntley, but I

2802
02:22:11,640 --> 02:22:13,440
Speaker 5: mean it's not like they really had much of a

2803
02:22:13,560 --> 02:22:17,000
Speaker 5: chance when Lamar Jackson was in on the field. I mean,

2804
02:22:17,000 --> 02:22:20,000
Speaker 5: that's the reality. That is the whole show there in Baltimore.

2805
02:22:20,000 --> 02:22:21,640
Speaker 5: And you could say the same about a lot of

2806
02:22:21,640 --> 02:22:26,959
Speaker 5: different teams. Starting quarterbacks are a premium and that's the

2807
02:22:27,000 --> 02:22:29,800
Speaker 5: reason why the Jets, the New York Jets have six

2808
02:22:29,879 --> 02:22:33,480
Speaker 5: primetime games this upcoming season because Aaron Rodgers is their

2809
02:22:33,520 --> 02:22:36,560
Speaker 5: starting quarterback. That's how this works. But yeah, you know,

2810
02:22:36,840 --> 02:22:41,160
Speaker 5: if you did want to flex out games, the conversation

2811
02:22:41,240 --> 02:22:43,920
Speaker 5: about player safety when it comes to Thursday night games

2812
02:22:43,959 --> 02:22:46,440
Speaker 5: would have to be discussed because there's no way to

2813
02:22:46,480 --> 02:22:49,800
Speaker 5: do that while also defending player safety. But then again,

2814
02:22:50,160 --> 02:22:52,840
Speaker 5: a lot of these decisions are money based, and everybody

2815
02:22:52,879 --> 02:22:55,160
Speaker 5: knows it's not about player safety, and those decisions are

2816
02:22:55,160 --> 02:22:55,840
Speaker 5: made anyways.

2817
02:22:55,879 --> 02:22:58,400
Speaker 3: All right, let's find out what's trending right now as

2818
02:22:58,480 --> 02:23:02,840
Speaker 3: we welcome back months the amazing how this basketball game

2819
02:23:02,959 --> 02:23:09,119
Speaker 3: is turned after that flagrant, right flagrant, Everything in slow motion.

2820
02:23:09,120 --> 02:23:10,360
Speaker 6: Looks worse than it is.

2821
02:23:10,959 --> 02:23:14,360
Speaker 4: It wasn't intentional, but he did draw bloods, so I

2822
02:23:14,440 --> 02:23:16,320
Speaker 4: figured it was gonna end up being a flagrant.

2823
02:23:16,520 --> 02:23:18,560
Speaker 6: But I didn't think it was intentional. I you know,

2824
02:23:18,600 --> 02:23:21,160
Speaker 6: he lost the ball, he lost control, That's just what happened.

2825
02:23:21,400 --> 02:23:25,320
Speaker 4: But James Harden definitely was issued that flagrant one for

2826
02:23:25,520 --> 02:23:26,480
Speaker 4: hitting Jalen Brown.

2827
02:23:26,600 --> 02:23:28,520
Speaker 6: And I feel for Jalen Brown. I've actually never had

2828
02:23:28,560 --> 02:23:31,039
Speaker 6: a bloody nose in my life, knock on wood, even

2829
02:23:31,080 --> 02:23:33,400
Speaker 6: though never not from not when I was a kid.

2830
02:23:33,920 --> 02:23:35,640
Speaker 6: I've never had a bloody nose. But I do have

2831
02:23:35,680 --> 02:23:36,680
Speaker 6: really bad allergies.

2832
02:23:36,720 --> 02:23:40,240
Speaker 4: So I have been Jalen Brown with the tissue stuck.

2833
02:23:40,080 --> 02:23:43,480
Speaker 6: Up my nose because of my allergies and of my snots.

2834
02:23:43,480 --> 02:23:46,520
Speaker 6: So I make so let me you have allergies, I

Speaker 6: Headache, but I never had a headache either.

2838
02:23:50,240 --> 02:23:51,960
Speaker 2: Wait, wait, I've never never had a headache.

2839
02:23:51,959 --> 02:23:53,960
Speaker 5: You've never had a bloody nose, and you've never had

2840
02:23:53,959 --> 02:23:54,360
Speaker 5: a headache.

2841
02:23:54,480 --> 02:23:56,240
Speaker 6: No, I've never had a headache. I don't know what

2842
02:23:56,320 --> 02:23:56,680
Speaker 6: that's like.

2843
02:23:57,000 --> 02:23:59,120

02:24:05,080 --> 02:24:06,480
Speaker 4: pressure behind my eyes.

Speaker 5: From like you know, like I never had a hangover

2848
02:24:09,560 --> 02:24:10,160
Speaker 5: in my life.

2849
02:24:10,200 --> 02:24:11,280
Speaker 6: Now that's impressive.

2850
02:24:11,280 --> 02:24:14,400
Speaker 5: In fact, in college I used to I used to

2851
02:24:14,400 --> 02:24:16,600
Speaker 5: feel so like out of place when people woke up

2852
02:24:16,640 --> 02:24:19,680
Speaker 5: on Sundays after a late night out. Saturday, Hey, you're

2853
02:24:19,680 --> 02:24:22,280
Speaker 5: celebrating wind or you know, you're licking your runs from

2854
02:24:22,280 --> 02:24:24,160
Speaker 5: a loss. Everybody goes out and have a couple of

2855
02:24:24,200 --> 02:24:26,760
Speaker 5: you know, a couple of beers. Wake up the next morning.

2856
02:24:26,520 --> 02:24:29,160
Speaker 2: Guy's like, oh, I need to get breakfast.

2857
02:24:29,280 --> 02:24:31,600
Speaker 5: I need something fatty on the plate because it's got

2858
02:24:31,600 --> 02:24:33,680
Speaker 5: to soak up all this alcohol. I'm like, oh my god,

2859
02:24:33,879 --> 02:24:36,600
Speaker 5: me too, Like I was just faking it.

2860
02:24:36,720 --> 02:24:37,240
Speaker 1: I feel good.

2861
02:24:38,480 --> 02:24:41,320
Speaker 6: What is the advice? What is it? Did you eat

2862
02:24:41,400 --> 02:24:45,879
Speaker 6: before you know? Drake had coconut water media light. What

2863
02:24:46,120 --> 02:24:46,440
Speaker 6: is it?

2864
02:24:46,560 --> 02:24:48,360
Speaker 5: I think I looked it up because I was like,

2865
02:24:48,480 --> 02:24:50,400
Speaker 5: what does it feel like? I remember asking my wife

2866
02:24:50,440 --> 02:24:52,280
Speaker 5: because she gets the worst hangovers, so I was like,

2867
02:24:52,320 --> 02:24:54,400
Speaker 5: what does it feel like? She was like, I feel nauseous.

2868
02:24:54,600 --> 02:24:57,440
Speaker 5: She's like I have a headache. She's like the world

2869
02:24:57,560 --> 02:25:01,000
Speaker 5: spinning sometime. I feel awful all day until like the evening.

2870
02:25:01,160 --> 02:25:04,160
Speaker 5: I was like, I've never experienced this. There's a certain

2871
02:25:04,280 --> 02:25:07,080
Speaker 5: amount of people on the planet genetically who are immune

2872
02:25:07,120 --> 02:25:07,959
Speaker 5: two hangovers.

2873
02:25:08,120 --> 02:25:11,240
Speaker 2: By the way, we just had another situation. Yes, so

2874
02:25:11,440 --> 02:25:12,240
Speaker 2: Jalen Brown.

2875
02:25:12,360 --> 02:25:15,840
Speaker 3: It was near the Sixers bench and he got grabbed

2876
02:25:16,400 --> 02:25:18,440
Speaker 3: by one of the Sixers as he was trying to

2877
02:25:18,520 --> 02:25:19,680
Speaker 3: run back on the court.

2878
02:25:19,879 --> 02:25:21,680
Speaker 2: There's Scott Foster in the middle of it.

2879
02:25:22,160 --> 02:25:25,440
Speaker 3: So now they're reviewing another play that could indeed favor this.

2880
02:25:25,600 --> 02:25:28,640
Speaker 5: I think he just got teed up, none of no that, yeah,

2881
02:25:28,879 --> 02:25:30,240
Speaker 5: I think I handed out.

2882
02:25:30,280 --> 02:25:33,600
Speaker 2: I think they're looking at the Seaxers bench for grabbing him.

2883
02:25:33,640 --> 02:25:36,480
Speaker 2: But right there Harris was that Harris?

2884
02:25:36,560 --> 02:25:38,800
Speaker 5: No, No, I don't think it was Harry. I don't

2885
02:25:38,800 --> 02:25:39,320
Speaker 5: know who it was.

2886
02:25:39,360 --> 02:25:41,680
Speaker 3: But one of the Sixers players grabbed him as he

2887
02:25:41,760 --> 02:25:43,000
Speaker 3: was running back to the courty.

2888
02:25:43,200 --> 02:25:45,840
Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, Foster just tea up Brown.

2889
02:25:45,920 --> 02:25:47,400
Speaker 6: He did look like he did.

2890
02:25:47,840 --> 02:25:49,720
Speaker 5: I hit him with the teampoint Hunt, but.

2891
02:25:49,680 --> 02:25:51,600
Speaker 4: I think they're figuring it out. I did see what

2892
02:25:51,680 --> 02:25:53,560
Speaker 4: you saw. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Rich, Yeah that I thought

2893
02:25:53,600 --> 02:25:56,839
Speaker 4: he was seeing him up. But he was clearly complaining about.

2894
02:25:56,440 --> 02:26:01,000
Speaker 3: Being Scott Foster has lost control of this game, or

2895
02:26:01,240 --> 02:26:02,560
Speaker 3: it's all coming together.

2896
02:26:03,240 --> 02:26:04,040
Speaker 6: Oh what is it?

2897
02:26:04,400 --> 02:26:06,039
Speaker 5: When is just coming again?

2898
02:26:06,200 --> 02:26:07,800
Speaker 6: Conspiracy theories continue.

2899
02:26:07,920 --> 02:26:10,760
Speaker 4: The seventy six Ers a heart beating the Celtics thirty

2900
02:26:10,800 --> 02:26:12,520
Speaker 4: five to thirty three halfway through.

2901
02:26:12,320 --> 02:26:13,160
Speaker 6: The second quarter.

2902
02:26:13,600 --> 02:26:16,959
Speaker 4: PJ Tucker eleven points for the seventy six Ers. He

2903
02:26:17,120 --> 02:26:19,480
Speaker 4: is thirty eight years old, was drafted in the second

2904
02:26:19,560 --> 02:26:21,800
Speaker 4: round of the two thousand and six draft.

2905
02:26:21,840 --> 02:26:23,360
Speaker 6: When we were wondering how old is he?

2906
02:26:26,040 --> 02:26:30,359
Speaker 4: Jason Tatum leading Boston with twelve points, Jalen Brown adding eleven.

2907
02:26:30,600 --> 02:26:34,000
Speaker 4: They're still looking at this play, even though before he

2908
02:26:34,080 --> 02:26:37,040
Speaker 4: got pulled, he pulled James Harden down. There's a lot

2909
02:26:37,080 --> 02:26:38,960
Speaker 4: of pulling going on right now, you guys, a lot

2910
02:26:38,959 --> 02:26:39,440
Speaker 4: of pulling.

2911
02:26:39,959 --> 02:26:42,240
Speaker 6: Let's check in with Major League Baseball.

2912
02:26:42,280 --> 02:26:45,119
Speaker 4: The Yankees made it interesting, but no, they officially lost

2913
02:26:45,160 --> 02:26:47,320
Speaker 4: to the Rays. They were down by as many as

2914
02:26:47,360 --> 02:26:50,160
Speaker 4: four and then their kid wits Volpi.

2915
02:26:50,560 --> 02:26:51,560
Speaker 2: Yeah you guy.

2916
02:26:51,840 --> 02:26:54,160
Speaker 4: He hit a two run homer in the eighth inning

2917
02:26:54,240 --> 02:26:56,520
Speaker 4: to bring them within one, but the race still won.

2918
02:26:56,560 --> 02:26:59,240
Speaker 4: Eight to seven was the final score currently going on.

2919
02:26:59,360 --> 02:27:02,840
Speaker 4: Rangers two zero, bottom of the second inning, Rockies beating

2920
02:27:02,840 --> 02:27:05,039
Speaker 4: the Phillies three zero, bottom of the fifth.

2921
02:27:05,160 --> 02:27:06,440
Speaker 6: The Brewers can't stop scoring.

2922
02:27:06,440 --> 02:27:09,000
Speaker 4: They're beating the Royals nine to four, bottom of the seventh,

2923
02:27:09,240 --> 02:27:11,480
Speaker 4: White Sox on the board, but the ast shows up

2924
02:27:11,520 --> 02:27:12,039
Speaker 4: four to three.

2925
02:27:12,120 --> 02:27:12,680
Speaker 6: Top of the ninth.

2926
02:27:12,720 --> 02:27:15,600
Speaker 4: They're playing in Chicago, Twins still all over the Cubs

2927
02:27:15,680 --> 02:27:18,200
Speaker 4: nine to three, bottom of the eighth, Braves trying to

2928
02:27:18,200 --> 02:27:20,280
Speaker 4: hold onto that one run lead over the Blue Jays

2929
02:27:20,320 --> 02:27:20,880
Speaker 4: five to four.

2930
02:27:20,920 --> 02:27:22,160
Speaker 6: It's the bottom of the ninth inning.

2931
02:27:22,240 --> 02:27:25,600
Speaker 4: They are playing in Toronto, and yeah, seventy six ers,

2932
02:27:25,640 --> 02:27:29,600
Speaker 4: thirty five Celtics. Excuse me, seventy six ers, thirty seven Celtics,

2933
02:27:29,720 --> 02:27:32,480
Speaker 4: thirty five, six minutes to go in the second quarter

2934
02:27:32,560 --> 02:27:33,240
Speaker 4: of Game seven?

2935
02:27:33,480 --> 02:27:35,560
Speaker 3: All right, MONSI, and by the way, the last two

2936
02:27:35,600 --> 02:27:37,720
Speaker 3: points hard and finally breaks that streak. I think it

2937
02:27:37,760 --> 02:27:39,840
Speaker 3: was a nine to zero run for the Celtics, But

2938
02:27:40,040 --> 02:27:44,879
Speaker 3: what actually happened on that Jalen Brown situation where he

2939
02:27:44,920 --> 02:27:46,640
Speaker 3: got grabbed by the sixer on the bench.

2940
02:27:46,720 --> 02:27:48,560
Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't know what they did there because it

2941
02:27:48,560 --> 02:27:50,920
Speaker 9: doesn't look like anything actually happened to Celtics just took

2942
02:27:50,920 --> 02:27:52,879
Speaker 9: it out of bounds. I just wanted to say that

2943
02:27:53,080 --> 02:27:56,680
Speaker 9: not only is the crew chief Scott the fixer Foster,

2944
02:27:57,680 --> 02:28:01,240
Speaker 9: the other referee in this game is Eric Leus. He

2945
02:28:01,480 --> 02:28:04,480
Speaker 9: was the ref in the Lakers Celtics game that they

2946
02:28:04,520 --> 02:28:06,320
Speaker 9: blew that call at the end of the game with Lebron.

2947
02:28:06,520 --> 02:28:08,840
Speaker 5: Oh.

2948
02:28:08,840 --> 02:28:12,840
Speaker 9: Then, you know, because Laker fans are obsessive, they didn't win.

2949
02:28:12,800 --> 02:28:16,359
Speaker 3: In disguise, forwarded the opportunity to do officiate the biggest

2950
02:28:16,400 --> 02:28:17,119
Speaker 3: games of the year.

2951
02:28:17,240 --> 02:28:19,080
Speaker 2: Usually it's on a marriage system.

2952
02:28:18,920 --> 02:28:22,520
Speaker 9: Especially with you know, especially with Eric Lewis, because social

2953
02:28:22,560 --> 02:28:26,200
Speaker 9: media users discovered that his entire family are diehard Celtics fans.

2954
02:28:27,200 --> 02:28:29,840
Speaker 9: So very very interesting decision by the NBA.

2955
02:28:29,879 --> 02:28:34,000
Speaker 2: Here We'll say this though, if Lewis becomes Foster, and

2956
02:28:34,040 --> 02:28:36,640
Speaker 2: by the way, Boston just took the lead because Lewis

2957
02:28:36,720 --> 02:28:39,920
Speaker 2: is younger than Foster, you can tell. Yes, learning the

2958
02:28:41,280 --> 02:28:42,720
Speaker 2: tips and tricks of the trader.

2959
02:28:42,520 --> 02:28:45,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, you got a gray beard teaching the young buck

2960
02:28:45,520 --> 02:28:47,480
Speaker 5: how to how to do it how to do it

2961
02:28:47,560 --> 02:28:47,960
Speaker 5: just like that?

2962
02:28:48,120 --> 02:28:50,640
Speaker 3: All right, Well, Celtics have taken the lead now inside

2963
02:28:50,680 --> 02:28:51,400
Speaker 3: five minutes to go.

2964
02:28:51,560 --> 02:28:53,800
Speaker 2: They were down nine, but no longer.

2965
02:28:54,040 --> 02:28:57,720
Speaker 3: And ever since that flagrant foul, it has been mysteriously

2966
02:28:57,879 --> 02:28:58,840
Speaker 3: all Celtics.

2967
02:28:58,920 --> 02:29:03,000
Speaker 5: Well, what's interesting is it takes it takes something like

2968
02:29:03,080 --> 02:29:05,520
Speaker 5: that to change the tide of a game. Sometimes, you know,

2969
02:29:05,640 --> 02:29:09,880
Speaker 5: you fall into an old pattern. And Tatum, I mean,

2970
02:29:10,000 --> 02:29:11,840
Speaker 5: that was a hell of a movie right there. Tatum

2971
02:29:12,040 --> 02:29:15,720
Speaker 5: just isowed at the elbow and made a left handed

2972
02:29:15,879 --> 02:29:19,320
Speaker 5: layup that was just spin move with the left hand. Unbelievable,

2973
02:29:19,360 --> 02:29:22,880
Speaker 5: talented the guy. He just needs to play this way

2974
02:29:22,879 --> 02:29:25,480
Speaker 5: in the second f and I mean that alone could

2975
02:29:25,560 --> 02:29:26,640
Speaker 5: lead to a Celtics win.

2976
02:29:26,840 --> 02:29:28,720
Speaker 2: Applus what Scott Foster's doing.

2977
02:29:29,640 --> 02:29:31,560
Speaker 3: By the way, I wanted to bring up a stat

2978
02:29:32,000 --> 02:29:36,360
Speaker 3: in the ongoing argument about the goat, which, with all

2979
02:29:36,440 --> 02:29:38,400
Speaker 3: due respect to the likes of Bill Russell, who won

2980
02:29:38,440 --> 02:29:42,120
Speaker 3: eleven championships, or Kareem Abdul Jabbar, always comes down to

2981
02:29:42,160 --> 02:29:44,879
Speaker 3: two guys, Michael Jordan and Lebron James. And you know,

2982
02:29:44,920 --> 02:29:47,720
Speaker 3: the Jordan defenders always say, well, look at the finals

2983
02:29:47,720 --> 02:29:51,360
Speaker 3: six and zero. Yeah, and Lebron's four and six. Well,

2984
02:29:51,360 --> 02:29:53,760
Speaker 3: how about conference finals? You want a stab for this?

2985
02:29:54,360 --> 02:29:58,520
Speaker 3: Michael Jordan was six and two in conference finals. Lebron's

2986
02:29:58,600 --> 02:30:01,600
Speaker 3: ten and one. In fact, he's won his last nine

2987
02:30:01,640 --> 02:30:04,280
Speaker 3: in a row conference finals.

2988
02:30:03,959 --> 02:30:05,600
Speaker 5: Y yeah, conference fives.

2989
02:30:05,760 --> 02:30:07,760
Speaker 3: And by the way, I always look at like when

2990
02:30:07,800 --> 02:30:10,040
Speaker 3: I look at you know, what are the most painful

2991
02:30:10,160 --> 02:30:15,960
Speaker 3: losses in sports, it's in the NFL conference championship games,

2992
02:30:16,400 --> 02:30:18,640
Speaker 3: because if you if you get to the super Bowl,

2993
02:30:18,920 --> 02:30:22,680
Speaker 3: you got there conference finals. In the NBA, if you

2994
02:30:22,720 --> 02:30:25,520
Speaker 3: get to the Fight, you were in the finals. Oh yeah,

2995
02:30:25,680 --> 02:30:28,320
Speaker 3: world seriously, always to me, you know when we talk

2996
02:30:28,320 --> 02:30:31,840
Speaker 3: about the Elite eight in the NCAA basketball Tom, because

2997
02:30:31,840 --> 02:30:33,680
Speaker 3: if you get to the final four, you were in

2998
02:30:33,720 --> 02:30:38,360
Speaker 3: the final four. So in the conference finals or the

2999
02:30:38,400 --> 02:30:41,840
Speaker 3: pressure is really ramped up. Ten and one, nine to

3000
02:30:41,879 --> 02:30:44,520
Speaker 3: Ozer in his last nine trips, you know, Lebron James.

3001
02:30:44,320 --> 02:30:47,959
Speaker 5: I feel about it. I think that not enough credit

3002
02:30:48,240 --> 02:30:51,640
Speaker 5: is given to the loser in finals, right and you're

3003
02:30:51,640 --> 02:30:55,000
Speaker 5: still there. I know that sounds ridiculous, and I understand

3004
02:30:55,160 --> 02:30:58,000
Speaker 5: like a lot of people will will say, well Montana

3005
02:30:58,120 --> 02:31:00,360
Speaker 5: went to four and he won four super Bowls, yeah,

3006
02:31:00,440 --> 02:31:04,280
Speaker 5: and Brady lost three. Yeah, so so Montana's a goat.

3007
02:31:04,360 --> 02:31:06,640
Speaker 5: I'm like, how does that make sense? How does that

3008
02:31:06,680 --> 02:31:08,080
Speaker 5: even come close to make sense?

3009
02:31:08,240 --> 02:31:10,240
Speaker 3: And by the way, the other thing about Lebron is

3010
02:31:10,320 --> 02:31:14,000
Speaker 3: so in all six NBA finals that Michael Jordan played in,

3011
02:31:14,360 --> 02:31:15,359
Speaker 3: the Bulls were.

3012
02:31:15,200 --> 02:31:16,720
Speaker 5: The favor right, all of them.

3013
02:31:16,800 --> 02:31:19,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, Lebron in his ten NBA finals, they've only been

3014
02:31:19,879 --> 02:31:21,080
Speaker 3: favored three times.

3015
02:31:21,640 --> 02:31:25,360
Speaker 5: Look, I'm I'm among the people who believe that Lebron

3016
02:31:25,520 --> 02:31:29,000
Speaker 5: James is the greatest basketball player to ever live. I

3017
02:31:29,720 --> 02:31:32,560
Speaker 5: think so many for so many reasons. I mean, on

3018
02:31:32,600 --> 02:31:35,520
Speaker 5: the court spectacle, the team wide success, the fact that

3019
02:31:35,560 --> 02:31:38,960
Speaker 5: he's had success in championships with three different organizations. Yes,

3020
02:31:39,600 --> 02:31:41,720
Speaker 5: I just I think he's the best. And then I'll

3021
02:31:41,720 --> 02:31:45,199
Speaker 5: add to it. Basketball players nowaday have to worry about

3022
02:31:45,280 --> 02:31:48,879
Speaker 5: so much more than basketball players during the Jordan era

3023
02:31:49,400 --> 02:31:51,440
Speaker 5: or any other era in basketball, how to worry about.

3024
02:31:51,760 --> 02:31:55,120
Speaker 5: They didn't have media members. I mean, I should say,

3025
02:31:55,400 --> 02:31:59,600
Speaker 5: Lebron and this crew, this cast of NBA players, they

3026
02:31:59,600 --> 02:32:02,840
Speaker 5: don't have media members in their pocket. You can't. I mean,

3027
02:32:03,040 --> 02:32:06,320
Speaker 5: those days are over. That ship has sailed. Everything's so transparent.

3028
02:32:06,400 --> 02:32:08,800
Speaker 5: People find out. What's the social media? When you think

3029
02:32:08,840 --> 02:32:11,320
Speaker 5: about it? When Jordan won his last championship with the

3030
02:32:11,320 --> 02:32:13,720
Speaker 5: Bulls in ninety eight. Do you know how just on

3031
02:32:13,720 --> 02:32:16,840
Speaker 5: the cuss, how many secrets were kept by members of

3032
02:32:16,879 --> 02:32:21,320
Speaker 5: the media during those times, just for access. I mean,

3033
02:32:21,360 --> 02:32:23,080
Speaker 5: that's the reality of the situation.

3034
02:32:23,240 --> 02:32:26,240
Speaker 2: Is the real story of Jordan's initial retirement.

3035
02:32:26,680 --> 02:32:28,520
Speaker 5: I mean, like, but that's.

3036
02:32:28,480 --> 02:32:29,840
Speaker 2: Play minor league baseball.

3037
02:32:30,080 --> 02:32:32,840
Speaker 5: I'm sure that was it. I'm sure there was nothing

3038
02:32:32,920 --> 02:32:33,879
Speaker 5: more to that story.

3039
02:32:33,879 --> 02:32:37,119
Speaker 2: And of course there was some documentation about some gamblers. Look,

3040
02:32:37,160 --> 02:32:39,200
Speaker 2: I'm sure it was all on the up and up.

3041
02:32:39,800 --> 02:32:40,959
Speaker 5: I just love baseball.

3042
02:32:41,040 --> 02:32:43,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, he did hit two O two in his one

3043
02:32:43,200 --> 02:32:46,240
Speaker 3: minor league season. I we're all over at sixers and

3044
02:32:46,320 --> 02:32:49,960
Speaker 3: the Celtics Philadelphia has retaking the lead. Much more coming up.

Speaker 5: give a shout out to Mama Ornberger.

3061
02:33:29,240 --> 02:33:30,279
Speaker 2: Is that what was happening?

3062
02:33:30,600 --> 02:33:33,480
Speaker 5: He was replaying my impression of my mom, who is

3063
02:33:33,560 --> 02:33:36,800
Speaker 5: a long island yenta.

3064

Speaker 2: To her right. Let's hear this one more time. Those uniforpes. Gorgeous, Richard,

3065
02:33:41,280 --> 02:33:44,040
Speaker 2: you look so good with you. Remember, tell them to

3066
02:33:44,080 --> 02:33:47,000
Speaker 2: wear the baby you remember.

3067
02:33:47,120 --> 02:33:49,600
Speaker 3: See how I interject and interrupt him. That is so

3068
02:33:49,760 --> 02:33:52,480
Speaker 3: rude to me. Yeah, it's uh, it's something.
