They beat the Boston Celtics in Game two, 11 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:45,599 Speaker 1: Miami up to nothing in this series, both road wins 12 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,160 Speaker 1: and some of the big news is Grant Williams, who 13 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: went face to face fourhead to forehead with Jimmy Butler, 14 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 1: riled him up, and then proceeded to only get one 15 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: stop on Jimmy when he was guarding him. Jimmy was 16 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: five for six from the field when Grant Williams was 17 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 1: guarding him. I don't know about you, Jared, I'm not 18 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 1: against all things poking the bear, but man, if you're 19 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 1: gonna do it, it better work out. And it did 20 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: not for Grant Williams last night. 21 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, good morning everyone. 22 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 3: I think our friends in Boston this morning are not 23 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 3: feeling too hot. I think the entire region of South 24 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 3: Florida will not be welcome. And granted, not a lot 25 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 3: of you know, fan bases or geographies are welcome in 26 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 3: Boston anyways, outside of the Boston Heights. But after the 27 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 3: Florida Panthers beat the Bruins in the first round of 28 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 3: the playoffs, and now it looks like the heat. I 29 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 3: don't want to put a fork in the Celtics just yet, 30 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,479 Speaker 3: but maybe I'll take one of the mini forks, maybe 31 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 3: one of those or derv spoons. And we're starting to 32 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 3: starting to soak up the deliciousness because this is this 33 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 3: is becoming one of the more I think impactful upset 34 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 3: stories of our generation. Right, Like I was trying to think, 35 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 3: and I agree that I would not be poking. Let's 36 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 3: just leave it at this. If I am poking a bear, 37 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 3: it's not going to be the Jimmy Butler bear. Maybe 38 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: i'd poke the bam At of Bio bear, maybe the 39 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 3: Max Struce bear, but I don't think. 40 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 2: I would poke with Jimmy bear. 41 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 3: They were up nine. Boston was when that incident happened. 42 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 3: With six minutes left, it was ninety six to eighty seven. 43 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 3: Grant Williams puts his head right into Jimmy's chest and 44 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 3: then all heck breaks loose from there, and of course 45 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 3: the Celtics. 46 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 2: Wanting to lose the game. But can you recall, like. 47 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 3: I was trying to think about this last night, I 48 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,519 Speaker 3: did a show after the game, and I was trying 49 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:35,279 Speaker 3: to think of a of a point in professional sports 50 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 3: where a team got by multiple rounds in the playoffs 51 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,679 Speaker 3: on more will than skill. And I don't want to 52 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 3: take anything away from the skillfulness of the Heat, but 53 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 3: like I was trying to think of Yukon's run in 54 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 3: the twenty fourteen tournament, where it was just they were 55 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 3: the hungry. They were hungrier than everybody else. Miami just 56 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 3: seems like they want it more and in those big 57 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 3: moments they rise when everyone else seemed to shrink. 58 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 4: That's an interesting thought. 59 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 5: You go back and the archives here and maybe you 60 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 5: think about the Knicks when they were in eight C Yeah, 61 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 5: and uh. 62 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 2: You trust free well and sure you know Patrick Ewing right, like. 63 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I don't know, was you in still around. 64 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,080 Speaker 2: For that one in ninety nine, I think he. 65 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 3: I think he might have been at the end, at 66 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 3: the tail end, because they went to the finals that year. 67 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, they did go, yeah. 68 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 3: And then they got crushed in the in the finals 69 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 3: by Spurs and Duncan Robinson and you know the Twin 70 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 3: Towers there with the Admiral and and uh and Tim Duncan. 71 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 3: But it I do think Patrick was still on that team. 72 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 2: I might be wrong. I don't know. 73 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 4: I'd have to go that. Yeah, it's been a long time. 74 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 5: I'm trying to think of some other ones where I 75 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 5: was thinking that we believe Warriors a pretty good one 76 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 5: where you think about Byron Davis, dunking On and Drake Kirolinko. 77 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, they they only win one round. 78 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 5: They got to the second round when gott Conference finals, like. 79 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 2: This team's going. 80 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 3: This team's two wins away from the finals. So Ewing 81 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 3: didn't play in the finals because he hurt his achilles. 82 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 3: But he was on the team that year. Okay, I 83 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 3: think that might have been the last year. But again 84 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 3: they had Patrick Ewing and Allen Houston. TELLSPU that was 85 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 3: still a really talented team. I would consider that NIXT 86 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 3: team more talented than this Heat team, right. 87 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 5: Right, Well, that's the tough thing is in the NBA, 88 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 5: You're gonna find talent on any team. 89 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 4: I'm just gonna make any run. You're right, but. 90 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, listen, your point is well received because 91 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 5: you think about Miami and Jimmy Butler is a star. 92 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 5: Jimmy Butler's at standing, Bam Auto Baio is a very 93 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 5: very good player. 94 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 4: He's just inconsistent. 95 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 5: And then you've got a collection of just undrafted free agents. 96 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 5: You got seven of them on this Heat squad, and 97 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 5: a lot of them contribute. They're not just into the 98 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 5: bench guy, not even the rotation. He maybe gets eleven 99 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 5: minutes at night, and he'll score you a bucket every 100 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,280 Speaker 5: other Thursday, you know what I mean. 101 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 4: Like, these guys are solid contributors. 102 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 3: And you know the names are not going to value, right, 103 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 3: And you're one hundred percent right. 104 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 2: They're all role players. 105 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 3: I mean Gabe Vincent from you see Santa Barbara in 106 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 3: his third season, I mean these guys and he is 107 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 3: being really he played forty minutes last night. Like, these 108 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 3: guys are being relied on at a level that I 109 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 3: can't imagine. 110 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,239 Speaker 2: And part of it's because of the Tyler Hero injury. 111 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 3: But again it goes back to I can't recall a 112 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 3: time like think about who the Heat have beaten. First 113 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 3: of all, they were a loss away from being eliminated. 114 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 3: They were in the final playing game, like not even 115 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 3: the the you know, the the upper tier. They were 116 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 3: the lower tier playing game. And then all of a sudden, 117 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 3: you get to this Bucks series and they were like 118 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 3: a ten dollars like plus one thousand to win that series. 119 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 3: They beat the Bucks. I know the Bucks had the injury, 120 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 3: to be honest, but they beat the one seed in 121 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 3: the NBA, you know, in the Eastern Conference, and then 122 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 3: all of a sudden they move on to the next round. 123 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 3: And I don't want to say the Knicks were a 124 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 3: good matchup for them, but I think based off of 125 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 3: where they were, the Knicks weren't really ready to bring 126 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 3: the smoke in that series and they got dispatched pretty quickly. 127 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 3: And then you get to this Boston series and you 128 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 3: think to yourself, yeah, this is probably when the run ends. 129 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 3: Boston's deeper. They're better at pretty much every position. They're 130 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 3: more talented, they've got home court advantage. They've been great 131 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 3: at home this year except in the playoffs. 132 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 2: Now Boston's lost two home games in the series. They 133 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 2: are a sub. 134 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 3: Five hundred team in the playoffs in this postseason, and 135 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 3: I love Shaq and Kenny and Charles. They do such 136 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 3: a great job. And you know, most of it's goofing, 137 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 3: you know, goofing off and silliness. But on the pregame show, 138 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 3: on the postgame show after game one, I Shack. They're 139 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 3: goofing off about something, and all of a sudden, Shack 140 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 3: drops this line like, yeah, we didn't lose home playoff 141 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 3: games when we were making our run. You don't lose 142 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 3: home playoff games and make a run of the finals. 143 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 3: So I don't want to say it's over. But when 144 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 3: you lose both games at home and you struggle at 145 00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,159 Speaker 3: home and now you got to go to Miami and 146 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 3: probably win too, I feel like Boston might be done. 147 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 5: It's uh, it's a rough spot to be and there's 148 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 5: no doubt, and I am I'm simultaneously disappointed by the 149 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 5: Celtics and really. 150 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 4: Impressed with the Miami heat. 151 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 5: I think it can be both where you're right, you 152 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 5: can't be dropping games left and right at home in 153 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 5: the playoffs, especially to an eight seed and granted, the 154 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,559 Speaker 5: Miami Heat aren't your run of the mill eight seed, 155 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 5: but they're still an eight seed. They will playing team 156 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 5: you know what I mean. You can't be losing at 157 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 5: home like that, and yet here they are doing that. 158 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 5: At the same time, I'm really impressed with Miami because 159 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 5: you know as well as I do, Jared, there are 160 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 5: a lot of teams up one nothing getting a road 161 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 5: win on this in the series, and they're losing by 162 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 5: double digits late in the fourth quarter. 163 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: Doespen shop Yeah, they just. 164 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 5: Say, yes, isn't our night. You know, we'll try to 165 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 5: get him in Game three, we're going with six minutes left, 166 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 5: they just they. 167 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 3: The game was like, I don't want to say it 168 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 3: was over, but you know it was sixteen straight. So 169 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 3: sixteen consecutive wins. 170 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 4: Yeah. 171 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 3: For the team down one zero in the series that 172 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 3: lost Game one at home, they are. And the only 173 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 3: cover was the Heat against the Knicks when the line 174 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 3: steamed up and Jimmy Butler got hurt against that Knicks 175 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 3: in Game two. But so the Heat were the only 176 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,600 Speaker 3: team that bucked the trends. I guess we shouldn't be 177 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 3: surprised they wont. 178 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 5: They are like zombies with agility. That's how I see 179 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 5: the Miami Heat. You know, they're just kind of coming 180 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 5: at you, but not like the typical staggering like a zombie. 181 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,959 Speaker 2: But they just falling off. 182 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, but they've got agility and they've got real skill there. 183 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 5: If zombies could hit three pointers, that would be the 184 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 5: Miami Heat. 185 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 3: That's my that might be my favorite line from the 186 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 3: show already. We're only ten minutes in. If zombies could 187 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,599 Speaker 3: hit threes there. There's just like Spolster's out coaching everybody. 188 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 3: It's it's gotten to the point with Spolster, like I 189 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 3: shouldn't even be surprised anymore. I mean, he's out coaching 190 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 3: the best coaches in this league and he's making it 191 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 3: look easy. 192 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 2: And I guess, Missoula, I don't want to put him 193 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: in that category. 194 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 3: And I think there's gonna be a lot of questions 195 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 3: about him after this series. How you know, I'm not 196 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 3: saying he didn't deserve the job. He absolutely deserved to 197 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 3: get the job based off of the status that he 198 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 3: was in. 199 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 2: But there's a lot of questions. 200 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 3: There's certainly a lot of questions when you get out 201 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:25,439 Speaker 3: foxed like this, the adjustments, there's no more buttons to push. 202 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 3: They made the Robert Williams adjustment and it's work but 203 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 3: hasn't worked well and off, I guess. 204 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 2: And man, I don't know if I could see. 205 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 3: So the Lakers, the Nuggets, and the Heat are the 206 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 3: three teams right now that are obviously still left outside 207 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,599 Speaker 3: of where we are with the Celtics. 208 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 2: And those three teams haven't lost at home in the playoffs. 209 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 3: So wow, I just I don't know if I see 210 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 3: Boston going down to Miami and winning two out of three. 211 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 2: I just don't know if I see it. 212 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's another. 213 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 2: Part of it. 214 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 5: And that's just to give you a chance to win 215 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 5: your teams at home, right, like you know, So that's 216 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 5: it's pretty wild to think of it like that. 217 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 4: Now, this is that's funny. So this is on tnc. 218 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,719 Speaker 5: This is the audio of the altercation where Grant Williams 219 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 5: was poking the Jimmy Butler bear not advised. Here's how 220 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 5: it sounded from Kevin Harlan owns the. 221 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 6: Friends Butler bumper for grand could Charlie to the fire, I. 222 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 2: Agree, thank you. This is the way of shame you. 223 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,959 Speaker 5: I mean, it was great entertainment value. It just it 224 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 5: didn't work. Out for Grant Williams and the Celtics. Listen 225 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:38,679 Speaker 5: to Jalen Brown after the game about the Grant Williams 226 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 5: Jimmy Butler altercation. 227 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 4: Grant Williams making mistake poking the bear with Jimmy Butler. 228 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 2: Next question. 229 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 5: That is, yes, absolutely, he made a mistake there. That's 230 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 5: I just can't say that about my teammates. 231 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,719 Speaker 4: So can we just move on? Can we just move 232 00:10:58,800 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 4: on right here? 233 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 3: But yeah, there's guys on the floor right like they 234 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 3: did it to Lebron in the last series, right, Dylan 235 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 3: Brooks and we talked about that last week might have 236 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 3: been two weeks ago. I forget all the week's blunt together. 237 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,920 Speaker 3: There's certain guys that you just don't go after. I think, 238 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 3: like I think I would rather lose the traditional way 239 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 3: against a guy like Lebron or Jimmy Butler, then know 240 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 3: something I did directly led to the turn of momentum, 241 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 3: Like I would just rather just play the game, focus 242 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 3: on what I can control, which is up and down 243 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,719 Speaker 3: the floor, making my shots, cuts all that stuff, the 244 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 3: little things. Then trying to mix it up, right, like 245 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 3: these guys are trying to start something and change the 246 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 3: change the dynamic of the series. But there's certain guys 247 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 3: you don't do that too. Lebron I think is one, 248 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 3: and I think Jimmy Butler is one. 249 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 5: A one B right there, right And Jimmy Butler is 250 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 5: one of the most competitive players you'll see in any sport, 251 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 5: and he feeds off of that stuff. So yeah, not advisable. 252 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 5: But I'm like this, Jared, if you're gonna do it, 253 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,199 Speaker 5: it's just gotta work out. It's almost like it's a 254 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 5: random comparison. But there are sometimes punters in football. I 255 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 5: can't believe I'm making this leap, but it'll make sense, hopefully. 256 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 5: There are punters in football that always have the green 257 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 5: light to try to run for a first down, but 258 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 5: the special teams coordinator is like, but you better make it. 259 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 5: That's how I feel about talking trash to Jimmy Butler. 260 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 5: If you're gonna do it, you better make it work out. 261 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 4: And it sure didn't last night. Man, not at all. 262 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 3: Grant and of all the guys too, Grant Williams. I 263 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 3: don't know enough about Brample. Is he a fake tough guy? 264 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:53,599 Speaker 3: And again, I don't want to act like I'm a 265 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 3: tough guy because I'm not. But I wouldn't go after 266 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 3: Jimmy Butler if I was playing against him in one 267 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 3: on one, I would just let him beat me and say, 268 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,599 Speaker 3: good game, Jimmy, you beat me fair and square, and 269 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 3: not trying to get inside guys heads because certain guys 270 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 3: are can't get inside their heads. 271 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,880 Speaker 4: I don't think it's a toughness thing. He's tough. 272 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 5: It's yes, he's not on Jimmy Butler's skill level. No, 273 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 5: and when you're doing that, Draymond Green put it really 274 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 5: well on. 275 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 2: So did Draymonds already? Did you do a podcast episode 276 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 2: about this? 277 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 5: They might have, but he chimed in on social media 278 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 5: and said I got to know when to talk and 279 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 5: to who. And it's true, Donovan Mitchell, but don't poke 280 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 5: the bear. I'll say this a little bit later in 281 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 5: the show coming up here, Jared, one of your favorite 282 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 5: teams caused me to look at poking the bear differently. 283 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,680 Speaker 2: You know, I mean, you take there good, very nice. 284 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 4: I'm interested in what you have to say about that 285 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 4: as well. 286 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 2: You know, we bring one of my teams into it, Brian, 287 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 2: I'm always you always hate my interest. 288 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 4: If I bring in uh, you know, Penn State, Notre 289 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 4: Dames right around the corner. 290 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 2: You know that's it's usually true.

This goes back to the twenty ten 326 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 5: season and the Jets. We're talking all sorts of smack 327 00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 5: about Tom Brady and the Patriots before a playoff, and 328 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 5: I was like, what are you doing? You know, tug 329 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 5: on Superman's Cape, Why would you think of doing something 330 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 5: like this? And then they went out there and they 331 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 5: backed it up and they won twenty eight to twenty one, 332 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 5: And ever since then, I've looked at it differently. I 333 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 5: used to be why would you poke any bear guy? 334 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 5: But I look at it in a different light after 335 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 5: the Jets, I'm like, hey, if you're gonna do it, fine, 336 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 5: you just got to back it up. And so I 337 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,920 Speaker 5: don't have a problem with Grant Williams trying to go 338 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 5: toe to toe with Jimmy Butler. I really don't. What 339 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 5: I have a problem with is he didn't make good 340 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 5: on it. It completely backfired. So I'm not against the tactic. 341 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 5: It's just if you're gonna do that, it's gotta work out, 342 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 5: and it did not. 343 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 4: At all for the Celtics. 344 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 3: This is one situation, well, actually every situation is better 345 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 3: with Rich, but this is one where I really wish 346 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 3: I had his cause some of the best stories, So, 347 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 3: you know, we do a lot of, you know, a 348 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 3: few of these side shows on some other remote locations, 349 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 3: and the best side stories that I always get when 350 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 3: we're chatting with Rich is all the stuff that he 351 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 3: tells us from on the field and the the trash 352 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 3: talking that goes on behind the scenes a little bit 353 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 3: that we're not always privy to watching the games on TV. 354 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,640 Speaker 3: So I'm curious if he has a different thought here 355 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 3: or just overall, how its structured. But if I was 356 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 3: a team like the Jets or in this situation, the Celtics, 357 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 3: and I was thinking about getting involved in that type 358 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 3: of banter, I would make it a team thing. Like 359 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 3: if I was Grant Williams, I would during one of 360 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 3: the timeouts, I would have said, hey, guys, listen, we need. 361 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:42,479 Speaker 2: A spark care. 362 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 3: In this case, they didn't because they were ahead in 363 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 3: the game, but let's just say they were down in 364 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 3: the game. Or in the Jets case, they had the 365 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 3: whole week to prepare. They're getting ready for Tom Brady, 366 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 3: the playoff game, Big going to Foxborough. 367 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 2: They're gonna get heckled. 368 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 3: So I would meet with the team and I'd say, listen, 369 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,679 Speaker 3: we're gonna we're gonna stir things up a little bit here, 370 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 3: and I want everyone to have my back, but i'm 371 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,360 Speaker 3: gonna poke the bear right, I'm gonna make some comments 372 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 3: to do this, or I'm gonna release a statement or something. 373 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 3: I don't know, whatever it is the Jets did that week, 374 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 3: I forget what they said, but I would make it 375 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 3: a team thing, so at least if you do it, 376 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 3: it's all together, and if it doesn't work, well, it 377 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 3: was a team it was a team strategy, and we 378 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 3: tried to do this, We tried to mix it up, 379 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 3: and Tom Brady shoved it down our throat. 380 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 2: Well, in this case, I don't. 381 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 3: I think Grant Williams kind of went rogue, right Like, 382 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 3: I think it just kind of like the the heat 383 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 3: of the moment boiled over and he got in Jimmy's face. 384 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 2: And it blew up in his face. 385 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 3: But in the future, I think the lesson for at 386 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 3: least the Celtics and maybe for other teams that are 387 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 3: thinking about getting involved with this type of you know, histiatrics. 388 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 3: I would make it a team thing. Hey listen, I'm 389 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 3: gonna go poke Jimmy right now. I'm gonna go get 390 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 3: under his skin. We're gonna see if we can't get 391 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 3: inside their head a little bit. 392 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 5: You know, it works, it works, It didn't work your Jets. 393 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 5: You know, it's funny if we go back in the 394 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 5: hot tip time machine. So before that Patriots game, they're 395 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 5: talking smack and they backed it up and they won. 396 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,479 Speaker 5: That was the famous Bart Scott line, like they couldn't 397 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,119 Speaker 5: stop a nosebleed. That was right after the game. And 398 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 5: then the next week they played the the Steelers and 399 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 5: it was a love fest. They were just giving them 400 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,679 Speaker 5: all their roses and just compliments, and I'm like, why 401 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 5: would you just I would just switch it up right 402 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 5: now you're the brash taking names, calling guys out, and 403 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:30,920 Speaker 5: now you're play. 404 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 2: That was so weird. 405 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 5: But also this if we spin it back to the 406 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 5: game last night, Miami Heat beat the Boston Celtics. Miami's 407 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 5: up to nothing in that series the Eastern Conference Finals. 408 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 5: Charles Barkley before the game, he had some really interesting 409 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 5: comments about Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown, the two top 410 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 5: players of the Celtics, and also Jimmy Butler is doing 411 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:54,360 Speaker 5: his thing with the Miami Heat. Checked this out on TNT. 412 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 2: I think the problem is they're just a bunch of. 413 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 11: Nice guys who are really good at basketball. They don't 414 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 11: have out that Jimmy Butler dog like. I've seen guys 415 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 11: who are great say that when they've been to the God. 416 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 2: They don't. 417 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 11: They they haven't won the big One either, because they 418 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,440 Speaker 11: are missing that. Jason Tatum is a great player, Jayson 419 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 11: Brown is a great player. They're just nice guys. Now 420 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 11: that guy, you know, Jimmy Butler don't have their talent. 421 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 11: Let me tell you something you want. Jimmy Butler in 422 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 11: that fox hole between Tatum and Brown and Jimmy Butler, 423 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 11: Jimmy Butler gonna take it. 424 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 5: I mean, it was a well timed take because that's 425 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,360 Speaker 5: before the game, and think about how the game played out. 426 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 5: A lot of this reaction is going to be about 427 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 5: Grant Williams. He poked the bear, didn't work out. But 428 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 5: Jason Tatum no field goals in the fourth quarter again 429 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 5: a second straight game. He didn't hit a shot count 430 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter, and Jalen Brown was basically a 431 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 5: no show for the entire game. He scored sixteen points 432 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 5: on twenty three shots. Well, Jared the Man was seven 433 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 5: for twenty three from the field. So it can't only 434 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 5: be about Grant Williams and what Barkley's saying about Tatum 435 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 5: and Brown. They're great basketball players, they're just nice guys. 436 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 5: And you see the difference with Jimmy Butler, who's a star, 437 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 5: and just the aggressiveness. Jimmy Butler is not going to 438 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 5: go bucket lists in two straight fourth quarters. It's not 439 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 5: gonna happen. But that's exactly what's happened at home for 440 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 5: Jason Tatum and I mentioned it. 441 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 2: I didn't realize we had a clip. 442 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 3: But that's a great lead in because what I said 443 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 3: last segment about how poignant those guys can be on 444 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 3: the desk despite all of the antics, and it is 445 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,880 Speaker 3: a fantastic show. But when they give you those little nuggets, 446 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 3: when they stop the jawing at each other for a minute, 447 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 3: and again, it's very entertaining. 448 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 2: It's tele they're supposed to be entertaining. 449 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 3: But then all of a sudden, Charles A Shack, I'll 450 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 3: give you just the little little dribbn drab of the 451 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 3: brain power of when they were in that mode. 452 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:04,879 Speaker 2: Because listen, those guys played it. 453 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 3: I would say Kenny not as much, but Shack and 454 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 3: Charles played it arguably the highest level he could possibly 455 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,679 Speaker 3: play in the NBA for a long stretch of time. 456 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 3: I know Shack had more team success, but Charles was 457 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 3: pretty successful too in his own right. But when those 458 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 3: guys give you those glimpses and they turn out to 459 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,920 Speaker 3: be just as spot on as they could possibly be, 460 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 3: because Charles could not be any more right, there is 461 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 3: a certain element of want and right will. Like it's 462 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 3: will over skill, and it's not taking anything away from 463 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 3: Jimmy's skill, But Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown are more 464 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 3: talented to the Jimmy Butler like. I don't think it 465 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 3: takes a reasonable mind or to admit that in terms 466 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 3: of their overall basketball talent. But when it's crunch time 467 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,400 Speaker 3: and when the going gets tough, right to steal a cliche, 468 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 3: the tough get going, and Jimmy Butlers just tougher than 469 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:56,520 Speaker 3: those guys. 470 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 2: It's nothing to do with their basketball skill. 471 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 3: It's just they have the ability Jimmy does to mentally 472 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 3: raise his game, to focus. 473 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 2: I'm doing. 474 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 3: I'm reading this book called The Power of Now. It's 475 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 3: all about spirituality and focusing, being in the present. I 476 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 3: don't know if Jimmy's read the book, but he he 477 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 3: showcases those qualities where nothing else matters except for the moment, 478 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 3: the present moment, and he has the ability to just elevate, 479 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 3: and not a lot of athletes do it. Frankly, I 480 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 3: think more athletes at the star level are the opposite. 481 00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 2: It takes a rare. 482 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 3: Breed for an athlete to be at the top of 483 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 3: his game physically and mentally. Usually it's one or the other, 484 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 3: and Jimmy has the ability to do both. 485 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 5: You know who else has the ability to do both? 486 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 5: That would be one Isaac Lowe Kron. He could do 487 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 5: multiple dimensions the same time, all of them positives, no 488 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 5: negatives over here. 489 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 4: And he's got the latest for us in the sports world. 490 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 2: What's going on? 491 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 9: I loow good morning, fouls and indeed the latest games 492 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 9: a few of the Eastern Conference finals. That continues to trend, 493 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,120 Speaker 9: with the Miami Heat rallying from twelve down with ten 494 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 9: to eighteen left in the fourth to win at Boston 495 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 9: on eleven, one to five for two games to non lead. 496 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 9: They outscored them down the stretch thirty four to sixteen. 497 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 9: The afore mentioned mister Butler twenty seven points, bam At 498 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 9: a Bio twenty two points, seventeen rebounds, nine assist Caleb 499 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 9: Martin scored twenty five off the bench. And by the way, 500 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 9: here was Butler's extended reaction to is certainly and very 501 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 9: quickly infamous verbal tet to TETs with Boston's Grant Williams. 502 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 10: That's just competition. At his finals, he hit a big shot, 503 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 10: started talking to me. 504 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 12: I like that. 505 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 10: I'm all for that. It makes me key in a 506 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 10: lot more and it pushes that will that I have 507 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 10: to win a lot more, and it makes me smile. 508 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 10: It does when people talk to me. I'm like, Okay, 509 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 10: I know I'm a decent player if you want to 510 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:58,680 Speaker 10: talk to me out of everybody that you can talk to. 511 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:03,679 Speaker 10: But I don't know, it's just competition. I do respect 512 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 10: him though. He's a big part of what they try 513 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 10: to do. He switches, he can shoot the ball. I 514 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 10: just don't know if I'm the best person to talk to. 515 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 9: Maybe that will inspire Butler to lower the price of 516 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 9: his big face coffee to a reasonable amount instead of 517 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 9: twenty bucks a cup. Man, there's a little trash talk 518 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 9: for you there, Jimmy. 519 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 2: What's this story. 520 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 3: He's going to post you up sell over the price 521 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 3: coffee like everyone else in this country. 522 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 9: Well that's true. Well overprices with twenty dollars for one cup, 523 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 9: I understand. I mean, yeah, it's. 524 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,119 Speaker 2: South Beach prices isak. 525 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, that's a good point. There's a South Beach sacks. 526 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 2: I understand. 527 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 9: It's it's sourced from you know, Guatemala, Brazil, Honduras, El Salvador, 528 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 9: the coffee meccas of this world. But still maybe a 529 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 9: little less than twenty dollars a cup. 530 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 2: I didn't know he sold coffee. 531 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, no, it got started in the in the bubble, 532 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 9: and I thought it was like a joke. But he 533 00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 9: would sell his coffee in the bubble and charge twenty 534 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 9: dollars a cup. 535 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, he said he was hustling people in the bubble. 536 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 2: I remember I saw that interview. 537 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 9: And now, so twenty dollars a cup. It's called big Face, 538 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 9: Big Face coffee. It's sold it a pop up shop. 539 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 9: And he was like, you know what, I actually need 540 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 9: to increase the price. And that's why he called it 541 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 9: big face coffee because the face on one hundred dollars 542 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,359 Speaker 9: bills is like that's literally the truth. 543 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 3: I would get in his face about the coffee prices 544 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 3: before I would get in his face about his play 545 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 3: on the floor. 546 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 9: And I would demand a taste tests like yeah, big 547 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 9: face coffee on one side, and. 548 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 2: A competition in the coffee space these days. 549 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 9: Yeah, exactly, and you know the coffee you make it home. 550 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 9: So yeah, there's a little trash talking for you, jam 551 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 9: get in his face. Game one of the NHL's Western 552 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,679 Speaker 9: Conference Finals saw the Vegas Golden Knights defeat the Dallas 553 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 9: Stars four to three. After only a minute and thirty 554 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 9: five seconds of overtime on Red Howden goal because the whiz. Yeah, 555 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 9: it wasn't even a school note.

Padres have lost ten 560 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 9: of twelve. USC Athletic director Mike Bone abruptly resigned Friday, 561 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 9: one day after The LA Times asked him and USC 562 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,680 Speaker 9: about internal criticism of his management and behavior that included 563 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 9: Bone allegedly making inappropriate remarks about the physical appearance of 564 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 9: female colleagues. Finally, after two rounds of the PGA Championship, 565 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 9: Victor Hovelin at Scottie Scheffler and Corey Connor share the 566 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 9: lead at five under par.

You dip our 571 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 5: big toe in the USC waters. What a job opening 572 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 5: right there to be the ad at USC. You got 573 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 5: the football team that's firing and all still, you've got 574 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 5: Lincoln Riley doing his thing. He is the transfer portal king. 575 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 5: I know that Elane Kiffin put it out there that 576 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 5: he's the portal king. He's the portal Prince. Lincoln Riley 577 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 5: is the portal King. They've got all that talent over there. 578 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 5: You've got Caleb Williams coming back again, who might be 579 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,640 Speaker 5: the number one overall pick. Oh, by the way, you've 580 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 5: got Bronnie James going there to join the basketball team. 581 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 3: What it's opening right now with football, it's gonna be 582 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 3: and you know, we'll get into it, of course over 583 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 3: the summer as we kind of gear up for we'll 584 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 3: do our own two days training camp style with football 585 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 3: preseason and the college ranks obviously being our big focus 586 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 3: here on Saturday. 587 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 2: It's going to be really fun. 588 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 3: I can't think of a season at USC that's been 589 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 3: more hyped than a while. 590 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 2: And I remember watching the Pac Twell Championship with you 591 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 2: in Biloxi. 592 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that was not a good night for USC, 593 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 3: right But I think when you look at what the 594 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 3: Trojans are as a program right now, maybe the hype 595 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 3: is too because I think the player is better than 596 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 3: the team, and we can get it again. We'll have 597 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 3: plenty of time to digest that side of it. I 598 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,360 Speaker 3: think the other side of it is a little upsetting, 599 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 3: and I don't know the landscape there in LA, like 600 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 3: I know a lot of our colleagues do. I saw 601 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 3: Doug goll It talking about it on social media yesterday, 602 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 3: and it's an eyebrow raiser with what's. 603 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 2: Happening in USC. I mean, anytime that type of. 604 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 3: Administrator abruptly resigns, you always scratch your head and wonder why. 605 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 2: So. 606 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 3: I don't have a lot of the context there, but 607 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 3: it's definitely an odd situation, to say the least. 608 00:29:37,080 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 4: You know, how about this, Let's keep it in LA 609 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 4: and keep it with the head scratching. 610 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 5: You know, if you switch over to the Lakers, Lebron 611 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 5: he's running out of gas over here, Jared Smith. You 612 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 5: could see it at the end of Game two where 613 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 5: man was he was absolutely gassed. There's no other way 614 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 5: to say it. As the Lakers lost game too, their 615 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 5: trailing two in this series. But how about Lebron who's 616 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 5: got an injured foot. Let's make that very clear here, 617 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 5: that's part of it. But the guy can't hit three pointers, Jared, 618 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 5: I don't know why he continues to take him. He 619 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 5: was OH for six on Thursday night against the Nuggets. 620 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,200 Speaker 5: He's OH for ten in the series against Denver. And 621 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 5: if you go back to all the way to Game 622 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 5: two of the first round, some of these stats get doctored, 623 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 5: but it's the second game of the playoffs. You go 624 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 5: back to that game, Lebron in the fourth quarter, he's 625 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 5: missed nineteen consecutive three pointers. Like no other player in 626 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 5: the last twenty five postseasons has recorded a longer such streak. 627 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 5: So that tells me you're running out of gas when 628 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 5: you're not hitting threes in the fourth quarter. And that's 629 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 5: been a constant trend in these playoffs for Lebron. So, 630 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 5: I mean, he's as smart as anybody out there on 631 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 5: the court. He's got to stop chucking it from deep 632 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 5: if they're not dropping and attack the rim. 633 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 12: That's where see it's so funny because you get these 634 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 12: two series, we'll get them back to back Miami in 635 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 12: Boston and La and Denver, and I compare Jimmy Butler. 636 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 3: I don't want to put him in the same stratosphere 637 00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 3: as Lebron. James but in terms of the importance to 638 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 3: their team, I think they're both in that same stratosphere. Lebron, 639 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 3: maybe the awareness is not quite there, or maybe it's 640 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 3: the trust, because where Jimmy trust's guys to make their shots, 641 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 3: and Miami is a dept at that. Caleb Martin attempted 642 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 3: seven last night, Duncan Robinson took six, Strews five, gave 643 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 3: Vincent one for four, Jimmy Butler oh for one, took 644 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 3: one three, didn't make it. All right, let's pivot to 645 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 3: something else not working tonight. Like that's where I think 646 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 3: maybe Lebron feels because the rest of his team doesn't 647 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 3: have that same collective belief that they can overcome their opponent. 648 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 2: I mean, let's be honest, the opponent they're facing. 649 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 3: I don't want to call them the big bad of 650 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 3: the NBA this year, but they're the deepest team in 651 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,719 Speaker 3: the league, and I think they're vastly underrated. Remember they 652 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 3: were an underdog in the series to the Phoenix Suns. 653 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 3: That's how underrated. And you want to say Miami's underrated, 654 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 3: that's totally fair. Denver's really underrated, like grossly underrated. They 655 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,720 Speaker 3: at home court in a series against the team that 656 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 3: basically had two players and nobody else, and they were 657 00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 3: an underdog in that series. So Denver is also very underrated, 658 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 3: and maybe the collective belief of the Lakers to be 659 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 3: able to overcome that opponent is dwindling. 660 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 2: And Lebron has to put on the Cape. 661 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 3: And let's be honest, Anthony Davis, the Cape is in 662 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 3: the locker room half the time in the postseason, it's 663 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 3: not even on the floor with them, and Lebron feels 664 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 3: like he has to put that cape on and be Superman, 665 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 3: and that's not his game anymore. And I could tell 666 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,959 Speaker 3: you I'm not an NBA player, but I can tell 667 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 3: you once you get north of thirty five, the same 668 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 3: things that you used to do very easily don't come 669 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 3: as easily anymore. And I'm not gonna say I'm some 670 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 3: geriatric because I'm not. But when you're a professional athlete, 671 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 3: those little inches that you lose over the course of 672 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 3: a two three year stretch, when maybe you're in your 673 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 3: mid thirties and now you're in your late thirties, it's 674 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 3: noticeable when you're on an NBA floor. And I think 675 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 3: the Lebron era of him just taking over. 676 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 2: Games right is over. He needs his teammates in order 677 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 2: to win, and. 678 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 3: Right now the Lakers are not playing up to that 679 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 3: standard collectively as a unit. 680 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 5: That's just the weird thing to me is that Lebron 681 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 5: is uber aware of what's going on with him, what's 682 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 5: going on around him, and so it's just surprising to 683 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 5: see him chuck in threes, especially in the fourth quarter 684 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 5: last game, and it's like he shot three threes in 685 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 5: a row, missed them all, like at the end of 686 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 5: the third quarter, the beginning of the fourth they. 687 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 2: Were all quick threes, like out of rhythm, like yeah, 688 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 2: shot clock like. 689 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 3: It just it doesn't make sense if you're trying to 690 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 3: get your teammates involved, right, it's not the right it's 691 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 3: not the right approach, right. 692 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 693 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 4: So I don't know what it was. 694 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:52,880 Speaker 5: It was just he was running out of gas and 695 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 5: certainly wasn't in his rhythm and I don't know, the 696 00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 5: awareness kind of lacked there in the fourth quarter. But 697 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 5: they are right there, they're right there with a chance 698 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 5: to win the game, and he just he couldn't. 699 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 2: Be a miss dunk. 700 00:34:06,880 --> 00:34:08,879 Speaker 3: He fumbled it on his way up, like and again, 701 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 3: that's a that's a brain fart like, I don't think 702 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 3: that's a oh we got a you know, Lebron's washed. 703 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 3: He couldn't, you know, he mishandled the ball. But again, 704 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 3: when you're facing a team like the Nuggets, the Nuggets 705 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 3: are are a well oiled machine. They are as efficient 706 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:28,920 Speaker 3: as a German train schedule. They have a star that 707 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 3: doesn't care if he scores fifty or ten points a night. 708 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 2: He does not care. 709 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 3: He'll drop forty assists if that's what the game plan calls. 710 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 3: He does not he won't take any shots if it's 711 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 3: that's what the game is. And I don't know if 712 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 3: the Lakers are about that life right now. I think 713 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 3: there's they they need Lebron or Ad to go off 714 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 3: for forty if they really want to have a chance 715 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 3: on any given night. 716 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 2: And I just don't see it now. 717 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 5: We never played in the the NBA, you know, never 718 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 5: in the conference finals. Most of the people listening didn't either. 719 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 5: But I've just put it this way. If you put 720 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 5: it in like normal everyday terms, if you're driving and 721 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 5: you're super tired, sometimes you make some really awful decisions, 722 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 5: you know, I mean, you make tired mistakes. 723 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 2: I'm sure you've been there too. 724 00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I've been there too. 725 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 2: On the road from Indiana. I could make it to 726 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 2: the next rest stop. No, I can make it. 727 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 4: Then you're hearing the side of the. 728 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:26,359 Speaker 2: Road start rumbling on those strips. Not good. That good. 729 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 4: But that's what it seemed like with Lebron. 730 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 5: That altitude is real and that dude was gassed, and 731 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 5: I thought you saw the decision making take a turn 732 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:36,239 Speaker 5: for the worse. 733 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,839 Speaker 3: Really, you know, that's why the Lakers have no chance 734 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 3: of the series, because they have to win two games 735 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 3: in Denver if they want to win it. 736 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 2: I just don't know if they can. 737 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 3: Not looking good at all, especially later on the series, right, 738 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:48,399 Speaker 3: That was my hypothesis going in was the Lakers needed 739 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,040 Speaker 3: to get early because as the series went on, I 740 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:54,280 Speaker 3: think physically they would be more drained, whereas the Nuggets 741 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:55,840 Speaker 3: are a little bit more of a deeper team they 742 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:57,240 Speaker 3: can withstand a longer series. 743 00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 744 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 5: Hey, he's Jared Smith FSR BET analyst. I'm Brian No 745 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 5: coming up next. So Mitch Trubisky, the Steelers backup quarterback. 746 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,359 Speaker 5: He just signed a three year extension. Now here's the thing. 747 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,879 Speaker 5: Mitch Trubisky is small potatoes in the Grand scheme of things. 748 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 5: Who's the most likely Trubisky from this year's NFL draft. 749 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,840 Speaker 4: That's the real question. We'll dive in. It's Fox Sports 750 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:21,919 Speaker 4: Saturday right here on Fox Sports Radio. 751 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 2: Welcome back in. 752 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 4: It's Fox Sports. 753 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:30,800 Speaker 5: Saturday Live from the tire rack dot com studios. Mitch Trubisky, 754 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 5: Steelers backup quarterback here Jared signed a three year extension 755 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 5: for him. 756 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 4: Good for him. Yeah, I wish I was. 757 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 2: A backup in the NFL. I'd make so much money. 758 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 5: Jase Daniels made a nice oh yep, gosh, holding the 759 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 5: clipboard for a better part of a decade. Yeah, there 760 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,640 Speaker 5: was a funny joke where TJ. Watt, the great edge 761 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 5: rusher for the Steelers, he slipped and fell into his pool, 762 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 5: and so someone wrote, maybe this is when he found 763 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,439 Speaker 5: out that Mitch Trubisky signed it for your extensions. 764 00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:04,399 Speaker 4: What happened right there. 765 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:09,479 Speaker 5: But here's the thing, man, in the latest draft, which 766 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 5: quarterback do you see having a Trubisky like career? 767 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 2: Right? 768 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 5: Well, you think of Trubisky number two overall pick. So 769 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,839 Speaker 5: you've got Bryce Young going number one, CJ. Stroud going 770 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 5: number two, Anthony Richardson number four. Certainly, in terms of 771 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 5: draft range. Those are legit candidates, But who doesn't live 772 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,720 Speaker 5: up to the hype? Who is in a franchise quarterback? 773 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 5: Who isn't a star? Which of those three D see 774 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:36,720 Speaker 5: being the most likely candidate. 775 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,320 Speaker 3: It's tough because I might I'm in danger of turning 776 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:45,359 Speaker 3: myself into a hot, cold, freezing cal takes promotion here. 777 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:49,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, if I get this fun right, this guy's gonna 778 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 2: be awful in the NFL. And then this player pro 779 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 2: bowler in his rookie season. 780 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 3: I think I know where you're going here, and I 781 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 3: think it's based off of what we've talked about a 782 00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 3: lot with the talent around C. J. Stroud at Houston 783 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 3: and Houston. I want to say Anthony Richardson, I really do, 784 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,959 Speaker 3: but if I'm wrong, I will be plastered on every 785 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 3: bad tape message board ever created in the. 786 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 2: History of the Internet. 787 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 3: But I do believe that Anthony Richardson reminds me a 788 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 3: lot of Drew Bisky right in their game. It's a 789 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 3: little more mobility, a little less finesse. It's a little right, 790 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 3: it's a little more it's a little more power and 791 00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 3: not as much, you know, precision, And I think that's 792 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:40,280 Speaker 3: where in the NFL. I don't want to say Trubisky 793 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:42,200 Speaker 3: is a guy that just fires the ball and runs 794 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 3: really fast and can't read the defense. But in the NFL, 795 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 3: I do prefer what Bryce Young has between the ears 796 00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:52,680 Speaker 3: than maybe the other guys in the draft. 797 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 2: But physically, I don't know if Bryce Young will be 798 00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 2: able to hold up. Yeah, especially after I watch that 799 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:02,600 Speaker 2: video of him behind his offensive line looking like a 800 00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 2: kindergartener out there. 801 00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 3: It's truly remarkable the physical difference between Bryce and the 802 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,200 Speaker 3: rest of this quarterback class. But I guess I'm beating 803 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 3: around the bush. If I had to give you one answer, 804 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,480 Speaker 3: I think I would say Anthony Richardson. 805 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 4: That's where I would go. 806 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 2: Also, Okay, wow, that surprised me because I know, even 807 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:19,360 Speaker 2: really critical of C. J. Strout. 808 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:24,759 Speaker 5: I'm yeah, I'm skeptical of both. But with Richardson, man, 809 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:28,240 Speaker 5: it's the lack of college experience. When you throw fewer 810 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:31,360 Speaker 5: than four hundred passes in college and you're trying to 811 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 5: learn on the fly in. 812 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 2: The NFL fifty three percent, I know that looks that 813 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:37,800 Speaker 2: it rarely goes up in the NFL. 814 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 5: He's got the tools, there's no doubt about that, But 815 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:46,280 Speaker 5: he was inconsistent at Florida, Like, just think about that first. 816 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 2: An offensive minded head coach too. 817 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not going to sit here and say no 818 00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,239 Speaker 5: chance know how that would be crazy. But the most 819 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,840 Speaker 5: likely candidate I think it is Anthony Richardson because you 820 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,959 Speaker 5: said it. He's gonna have some wow moments. He's gonna 821 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 5: do some things where you're like, I don't know who 822 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 5: else on the planet can do what he just did, 823 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 5: but you gotta be precise as an NFL quarterback, and 824 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 5: I just don't know that we're gonna get there with Richardson. 825 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:13,839 Speaker 5: I'm skeptical of Stroud because he doesn't have five first 826 00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:17,799 Speaker 5: round wide receivers around him. But over the year of town, right, 827 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 5: that matters a little bit, right, Oh, it matters a 828 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 5: ton jacks to make it upright, come it up next? 829 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 5: When poking the bear goes wrong, and also when it 830 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 5: goes right. 831 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,320 Speaker 4: Oh what's going on? Everybody? Good morning to you. 832 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 5: Hope your Saturday is off to a tremendous start. When 833 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 5: poking the bear goes wrong, But but other times when 834 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 5: it goes right, plenty of examples of each.

It was and even Jimmy after 844 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:11,320 Speaker 3: the game was like, hey, I loved it. 845 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:11,799 Speaker 2: It was great. 846 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 5: It was awesome. It was great theater. It did not 847 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 5: work out for the Celtics, but man, I love that. 848 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 5: I had flashbacks to this is a long time ago, 849 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 5: but remember when Michael Jordan did that to Xavier McDaniel 850 00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 5: and that they went forehead to forehead and Jordans stood 851 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,240 Speaker 5: up to the bully and this was a great moment. 852 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 4: But that's the way the playoffs used to be. I 853 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:34,200 Speaker 4: love all of that stuff. 854 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 5: So just taking a step back from it significantly backfired 855 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 5: for Grant Williams and the Celtics. But just as a 856 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 5: basketball fan, the still shots are amazing of Jimmy Butler. 857 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 2: Just happen. 858 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 3: Ye I joked, I did a meme where it was 859 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 3: Jimmy was your the last leg of the parlay, and 860 00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,320 Speaker 3: you know it always gets you, The last leg always 861 00:41:58,360 --> 00:41:58,919 Speaker 3: gets you, Right. 862 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,960 Speaker 2: Grant Williams was your harlay and Jimmy Butler was the 863 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,919 Speaker 2: last leg. It's like that last leg, man, it's tough 864 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 2: to get over that last leg. 865 00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 5: Remind me to circle back to that a little bit later. Yeah, 866 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 5: I've got some doozies for you, the last. 867 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,320 Speaker 2: It's always the last leg. Brian, it's away the last flag. 868 00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,320 Speaker 5: But yeah, I feel like Jimmy Butler yelling at the 869 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 5: last leg of that parlay the last few nights. But 870 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,719 Speaker 5: how about this, when poking the bear goes wrong, you know, 871 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:29,840 Speaker 5: expand it beyond just last night backfired for Grant Williams, 872 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:33,399 Speaker 5: I got well says it backfired for right. A couple 873 00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:37,399 Speaker 5: of names on my list obviously these playoffs. Dylan Brooks, Oh, yeah, 874 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 5: that's right. That's as obvious as it gets. Like, who cares, 875 00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:44,640 Speaker 5: he's old talking about Lebron and then they lose the 876 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,400 Speaker 5: closeout game by forty points. 877 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 4: That did not work out. You'd have to throw out 878 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:50,640 Speaker 4: Lance Stevenson. 879 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:53,200 Speaker 2: That's one that was on my list too. Yeah, when 880 00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 2: he was blowing in Lebron's ear. Yeah, didn't work out. 881 00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:58,359 Speaker 2: That was a good one. Didn't work out. That's another 882 00:42:58,440 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 2: all time meme right there. 883 00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:03,719 Speaker 5: You know what also just struck me is when you 884 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,800 Speaker 5: pull out your trash talking, you know, ace in the 885 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,879 Speaker 5: hole and the other guy just laughs at you. That's 886 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 5: that's an ego shot right there. Because Grant Williams hid 887 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 5: an open three, Jared, it was an open three and 888 00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:19,959 Speaker 5: started trash talking Jimmy Butler. 889 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 4: Jimmy just starts laughing. 890 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,239 Speaker 5: And it was the same thing when Lance Stevenson was 891 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:28,160 Speaker 5: blowing in Lebron's ear. There's the classic, like super tight 892 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 5: shot of Lebron. 893 00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 2: It was an ill. Yeah, it was an eye roll. 894 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 2: It was like this guy again, come on. And Lance 895 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:35,040 Speaker 2: was known for that. 896 00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:38,640 Speaker 3: So when I saw this this morning, I tried to 897 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 3: look up some other ones because there's so many good 898 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 3: ones that we forget, and this is one that I 899 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 3: had forgotten about. And now when you come back to 900 00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 3: it and circle back to it now, it's so much better. 901 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,879 Speaker 3: In the Super Bowl a few years ago, many years ago, 902 00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:56,400 Speaker 3: between the Eagles and the Patriots, this was not the 903 00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 3: Nick Foles game. This was the Donovan McNabb years back 904 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:02,960 Speaker 3: in the early two thousands. Maybe it was the two 905 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 3: thousand and five ish, I don't forget the exact year. 906 00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 3: Freddie Mitchell before the game, oh yeah, said he didn't 907 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:13,280 Speaker 3: even know the names of the Patriots secondary oh. 908 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 2: Man, and he had one catch. Obviously. The Patriots won 909 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:18,799 Speaker 2: the game, minitary, last second field goal. 910 00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 3: Great game, And that was one that really stood out 911 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:26,560 Speaker 3: because it it's like the it's like the bulletin board material, 912 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:31,360 Speaker 3: talking directly to the personnel grouping you are going to 913 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:32,959 Speaker 3: be facing in the game. 914 00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,239 Speaker 2: Like it'd be one thing if he said, yeah that 915 00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:36,920 Speaker 2: Bill Belichick, nobody knows who he is. 916 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:41,880 Speaker 3: He was directly calling out the secondary of the team 917 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:42,920 Speaker 3: that he was facing. 918 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 2: That is a no no to me. 919 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a big no no. 920 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 5: One of my other favorite ones, it's a really a 921 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,840 Speaker 5: no name guy was Anthony Smith. He's a safety for 922 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 5: the Steelers and he just wasn't impressed with the Patriots 923 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 5: being undefeated. Yep, and he let it be and the 924 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 5: Patriots won by three touchdowns. And there's the famous that 925 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:06,279 Speaker 5: was a guarantee I think game. That was a guarantee game, right. 926 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:09,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, yeah, you know it didn't work. 927 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:09,239 Speaker 7: Out. 928 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:12,280 Speaker 5: And then there was Tom Brady trash talking Anthony Smith 929 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,400 Speaker 5: after the Patriots scored a touchdown and he's given him 930 00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 5: the business in the end zone. 931 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,040 Speaker 4: That did not land well. So here here's one that 932 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 4: went right. 933 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,479 Speaker 2: Every time Floyd Mayweather's ever talked trash to anyone before 934 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 2: a fight. 935 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,800 Speaker 3: Yeah that and again I don't I haven't seen a 936 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 3: lot of instances, at least I can't recall any off 937 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 3: the top of my head where it was a pregame 938 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 3: trash talk and then that guy delivered, like delivered a 939 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,840 Speaker 3: lot of the Like. I looked up a couple of 940 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,160 Speaker 3: the Mike Tyson trash talks before fights. 941 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 2: Those went pretty well. 942 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:44,839 Speaker 3: A lot of it was boxing related because again you're 943 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:48,040 Speaker 3: talking directly to your opponent, so maybe it doesn't hold 944 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,440 Speaker 3: the same weight like the Freddie Mitchell stuff when you're 945 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 3: talking to a full team and that team just completely 946 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:57,360 Speaker 3: shuts you down. But a lot of the Floyd Mayweather 947 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 3: Mike Tyson stuff I found was was pretty six ccessful. 948 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 3: Like those guys had pretty good track records of talking 949 00:46:02,719 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 3: smack and then. 950 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 2: Backing it up. 951 00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:04,839 Speaker 4: Yeah you could. 952 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,120 Speaker 5: Uh, there are a couple of fight game ones where 953 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:11,200 Speaker 5: this is one of my favorites. Remember Antonio tarvor Oh, yeah, 954 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 5: talking smack to Roy Jones Junior. 955 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 4: This was beautiful. Right before the fight. They're in the ring. 956 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 4: They're in the right before the fight. That's how it sounded. 957 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,279 Speaker 2: I got a question, you got an excuse to night. 958 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:26,440 Speaker 2: That's not ask questions like that. Let's go to work. 959 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 3: They're touching gloves, right, I think, like I wish, and 960 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,240 Speaker 3: there's a big boxing match tonight here in Vegas. 961 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 2: Yeah. 962 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 3: I missed the days when even Floyd Mayweather, which you 963 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,480 Speaker 3: know we're not that far removed from those days, right, 964 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 3: But the the Lennox Lewis Tyson fights, the one that 965 00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 3: came to mind where he Tyson just completely trashed them. 966 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 3: But a lot of those fights, the preamble is. 967 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:55,920 Speaker 2: Just a man, it is. 968 00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 5: It's depending on which fighters, because some fighters it's almost 969 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,320 Speaker 5: like pro wrestling in a way. Some guys are like 970 00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 5: the Rock on the mic, and other guys give you 971 00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,839 Speaker 5: next to nothing. Yeah, but man, those entertainers who are 972 00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:12,439 Speaker 5: superstars and they are just I'll tell you what. Connor 973 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:16,840 Speaker 5: McGregor was outstanding. He didn't back it up against Floyd Mayweather, 974 00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 5: but everything leading up to that fight was top. 975 00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:21,359 Speaker 3: Shelf I've said, I think I've said this on the show. 976 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:25,320 Speaker 3: That was the largest wager that I've ever made in 977 00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:27,920 Speaker 3: my entire life. It was a five thousand dollars I 978 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 3: don't know, five thousand dollars a lot of money some people. 979 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:31,120 Speaker 3: For me, it was a lot of money, especially at 980 00:47:31,120 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 3: the time that I made it. It was like ten 981 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 3: years ago. There was a lot of money. That was 982 00:47:34,640 --> 00:47:36,400 Speaker 3: the biggest bet I've ever made in my life. Was 983 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,759 Speaker 3: Floyd Madweather to be Connor McGregor and would you have been? 984 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,480 Speaker 3: On their four dollar favorite? But I was like, yeah, 985 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,239 Speaker 3: there's no way that a box, no way to a 986 00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:44,040 Speaker 3: sea fighter. 987 00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:44,920 Speaker 2: Would you have been? 988 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 4: Would you have been like cardboard box? If that didn't 989 00:47:48,880 --> 00:47:50,040 Speaker 4: work out, Yeah. 990 00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 2: Let's just leave it at this. 991 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:52,920 Speaker 3: I was still in the stage of my life where 992 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:54,759 Speaker 3: I was making no money living in New York. It 993 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:56,920 Speaker 3: would have been a struggle the next month. Yeah, that 994 00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:58,400 Speaker 3: next month would have been I might have had to 995 00:47:58,440 --> 00:47:58,920 Speaker 3: call my mom. 996 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:04,279 Speaker 2: Man, not good.

When it 1004 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 5: does work out, when you poke the bear and it 1005 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 5: works out. A lot of boxing related right is Mohammad Ali. 1006 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:32,120 Speaker 5: Probably the most famous was when he was talking smack 1007 00:48:32,160 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 5: to George Foreman, who was like the baddest man on 1008 00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:38,319 Speaker 5: the planet. Yeah, and that worked out. Football related, how 1009 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:43,840 Speaker 5: about Joe Namath and the guarantee? Yeah, you go hockey, 1010 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 5: you throw a little hockey in there for you. 1011 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1012 00:48:46,080 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 5: So I just think it's important to do that list 1013 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 5: because the day after it blows up in Grant William's face. Yeah, 1014 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 5: he trash talks. Jimmy Butler doesn't work out. Sometimes it's like, 1015 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:00,480 Speaker 5: why would you poke the bear? There are so many 1016 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 5: instances in sports where guys poked the bear and it 1017 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 5: worked out. You just got to back it up. 1018 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:07,319 Speaker 2: That's a lot of times too. 1019 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 3: And I again I'm curious rich Rich's thoughts here because 1020 00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:12,840 Speaker 3: he would be able to give us that between the 1021 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 3: lines angle. But a lot of times when these players 1022 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:20,719 Speaker 3: go after other players or teams, they're doing it to 1023 00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 3: pump up themselves. It's more of a reflection of what 1024 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 3: they need in order to get up for certain games 1025 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 3: than it is trying to tear others down, Like I 1026 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 3: think if you asked Grant Williams to a man like yeah, 1027 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 3: like I respect Jimmy Butler a lot, like I wasn't 1028 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 3: trying to get him riled up. 1029 00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:41,879 Speaker 2: I was just trying to rile myself up. 1030 00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,920 Speaker 3: And it just kind of boiled over into this moment 1031 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,000 Speaker 3: that obviously is going to be remembered and talked about 1032 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 3: and you know, reviled if you're a Boston fan for 1033 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:53,640 Speaker 3: a long time. But I think a lot has to 1034 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 3: do with inner Hey, I need this in order to 1035 00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 3: get to that next level. Unfortunately, that that means I'm 1036 00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,360 Speaker 3: gonna probably upset a lot of people around me and 1037 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,520 Speaker 3: make them upset with me, and maybe it upsets my 1038 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,560 Speaker 3: teammates too, But that's what I need in order to 1039 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,960 Speaker 3: get up for these games. And I again, each person's individual. 1040 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,240 Speaker 3: Each person has their own quirks in their own ways 1041 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:17,719 Speaker 3: that their brain works. But I'm assuming that a lot 1042 00:50:17,800 --> 00:50:19,560 Speaker 3: of the trash talk that we hear on a daily 1043 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:22,680 Speaker 3: basis is just guys getting themselves ready. It has nothing 1044 00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:25,279 Speaker 3: to do with how they feel about that particular person 1045 00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 3: or team. It's just their their process. Well, I think 1046 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:30,960 Speaker 3: a couple of things. I think it's like the old 1047 00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 3: Dave Chappelle skit when Keeping It Real goes. 1048 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:40,959 Speaker 2: It's really git, we need akeeper back to Chappelle show, Please. 1049 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 2: Dave was amazing. I think it was only two seasons, 1050 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:45,520 Speaker 2: some of the best two seasons. 1051 00:50:45,560 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 5: I think it's a quick but you know, it's like 1052 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:51,359 Speaker 5: the Terrell Davis of the comedy world, Davis great running back, 1053 00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:53,640 Speaker 5: Hall of Famer, four seasons with the Broncos, that's what 1054 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 5: gave us. But also, you know, it really does go 1055 00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 5: against your DNA as an athlete, especially a professional athlete, 1056 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:08,280 Speaker 5: to really have the restraint, like you're thinking, I'm a competitor, 1057 00:51:08,320 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 5: I'm going after anybody. He was just toe to toe. 1058 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 5: Grant Williams was with Joel Embiid. Remember last series when 1059 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 5: Joelle accidentally stepped on his head. Yeah, and he was 1060 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:20,760 Speaker 5: miked up and he's like, oh, good brother, no problem, 1061 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:23,719 Speaker 5: we're battling here. It's the playoffs, you know, like he's 1062 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:27,400 Speaker 5: wired that way. So it does go against your you know, 1063 00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:30,560 Speaker 5: kind of like mental makeup to check yourself and be like, 1064 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:33,799 Speaker 5: oh but that's Jimmy Butler. Like I shouldn't say anything 1065 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 5: to Jimmy Butler, you know what I mean, Like you 1066 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 5: don't really have that switch of this isn't a good idea. 1067 00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 4: You're just like, screw it. I'll talk trash whoever. Like, 1068 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 4: you know what I mean. That's typically how you're wired. 1069 00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:45,240 Speaker 2: It's true. 1070 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 3: I think there's there's so many instances in games where 1071 00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 3: and the NBA is I think an interesting case study 1072 00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:57,040 Speaker 3: in this because of the volume of points that are scored, right, 1073 00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 3: Like we say this all the time, cliche like it's 1074 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:03,000 Speaker 3: a game of runs, and it's interesting to try to 1075 00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 3: peg the moments throughout the course of the game. 1076 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:08,440 Speaker 2: And we do this with live betting all the time. 1077 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:10,759 Speaker 3: Like the people who are the best at this are 1078 00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:14,479 Speaker 3: very successful betting live because they can watch a game. 1079 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:18,359 Speaker 3: They can key in on little moments that sometimes even 1080 00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 3: the announcers don't pick up on, but little changes in 1081 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:25,160 Speaker 3: body language and ways that the game is being either 1082 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:29,439 Speaker 3: officiated or the way that the pacing is and those 1083 00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:34,640 Speaker 3: moments when the momentum flips. You can become an insanely 1084 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:39,239 Speaker 3: profitable gambler if you can just peg two or three 1085 00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:42,399 Speaker 3: moments throughout the course of a forty eight minute NBA game, 1086 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:45,280 Speaker 3: when the momentum switches on a dime and it happens 1087 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 3: a lot. Yeah, if you can find those moments, you 1088 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:52,359 Speaker 3: can just rake in the cash because you can get 1089 00:52:52,400 --> 00:52:54,560 Speaker 3: one team at a plus price and then you get 1090 00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:55,839 Speaker 3: the other team at a plus price. 1091 00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 2: You have a chance to win both bets. 1092 00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,720 Speaker 3: And you're sitting back eating your popcorn o your cigar, 1093 00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 3: just enjoying life, thinking, yeah, I'm gonna win no matter 1094 00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 3: what happens in the end of this game. 1095 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:08,880 Speaker 2: But that was obviously a moment where if you were 1096 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 2: keen watching the game, and I saw a coupleople on 1097 00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 2: social media posted some of my gambling friends. They said, yeah, 1098 00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 2: this is the time the heater. 1099 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:19,560 Speaker 3: I think there were five or six to one on 1100 00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:22,000 Speaker 3: the live line to win the game at that moment 1101 00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:26,640 Speaker 3: when the Jimmy Butler Grant Williams altercation happened, And that was. 1102 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 2: One of those spots where you could just kind of 1103 00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:32,680 Speaker 2: see the tide turn. Yeah, and if you got in 1104 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 2: on it, feeling pretty good about yourself this morning. 1105 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 4: Very nice. 1106 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:39,480 Speaker 5: And yeah, it's funny too, because sometimes you notice it 1107 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:43,080 Speaker 5: in the moment. Sometimes it's after the fact, Yeah, where 1108 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 5: you might be watching this and thinking, Grant Williams, why 1109 00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:46,560 Speaker 5: would you do that? 1110 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 2: Man? 1111 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:49,560 Speaker 5: You just hit an open three while trash talk Jimmy Butler, 1112 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:51,920 Speaker 5: and Jimmy Butler goes right down to the other end 1113 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:54,719 Speaker 5: of the floor hits a shot on Grant Williams and 1114 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:57,719 Speaker 5: one and their forehead to forehead, and you might get 1115 00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:01,360 Speaker 5: caught up in just the entertainment value you and it's like, 1116 00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,440 Speaker 5: you don't take it to that next step of this 1117 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:07,320 Speaker 5: is where I pounce on an in game line, Like 1118 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:10,560 Speaker 5: it really does take a lot of discipline and a 1119 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,680 Speaker 5: lot of I don't know, experience, But Miami went on 1120 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 5: a twenty four to nine run after that Jimmy Grant 1121 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:21,160 Speaker 5: Williams altercation right there. Twenty four to nine, Jared, And 1122 00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 5: think about this. Another mind blowing stat here going forward. 1123 00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:29,759 Speaker 5: Sports Center put this out on Instagram. The chances of 1124 00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:35,120 Speaker 5: advancing to the NBA Finals after Game two Okay, via 1125 00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:42,400 Speaker 5: ESPN Analytics Celtic sixty five percent heat thirty five percent chance. 1126 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:45,520 Speaker 4: How in the world is that the case? 1127 00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:49,440 Speaker 3: It's not those analytics and the four Letter Network has 1128 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 3: drives me nuts for many reasons, but their analytics department 1129 00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:55,640 Speaker 3: would be the worst book maker, and they like, please 1130 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,720 Speaker 3: open up a sports book ESPN and start hanging those numbers, 1131 00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:03,440 Speaker 3: because every percentage is and odds, you know, it translates 1132 00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:07,640 Speaker 3: to odds. That would be basically like putting Boston still 1133 00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:09,959 Speaker 3: as a minus two hundred favorite to win the series. 1134 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:11,880 Speaker 4: That's insane, that's absurd. 1135 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 3: It makes no by the way, if I can actually 1136 00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:18,720 Speaker 3: like the actual price for the series is like Miami 1137 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 3: minus two hundred, right, so the odds makers think the 1138 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:25,480 Speaker 3: opposite of that percentage, like completely flip. 1139 00:55:25,320 --> 00:55:28,799 Speaker 5: It, like completely flip that, right. I did see one 1140 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 5: of your tweets the Heat have Alligator Blood. 1141 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean well, it's one of my favorite 1142 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:33,799 Speaker 2: movies of all. 1143 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:36,080 Speaker 4: Time, an outstanding movie, right the reund. 1144 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:38,520 Speaker 3: And I got the best part is And sometimes I 1145 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:40,120 Speaker 3: get good responses on social media. 1146 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:40,759 Speaker 2: Sometimes I don't. 1147 00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:43,160 Speaker 3: Half the time, I tweet stuff just to get interaction 1148 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:46,360 Speaker 3: because you know, it's where it's the engagement business that 1149 00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:49,960 Speaker 3: we're in. But the Teddy KGB quotes that I got 1150 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:54,320 Speaker 3: after I tweeted that were just the best. There's so 1151 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,760 Speaker 3: many from that, there's literally a million, Like we quoted 1152 00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:59,040 Speaker 3: that movie because I played poker growing up I was 1153 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 3: in high school in two thousand and three during the 1154 00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:04,560 Speaker 3: Chris Moneymaker, you know, World Series of Poker Win, and 1155 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:07,320 Speaker 3: that was like when Texas Holden became so popular in 1156 00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:12,839 Speaker 3: our country. It was just that movie was on great 1157 00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:14,880 Speaker 3: the subtle ones I love too, And I don't think 1158 00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 3: there's a bad line in it. It was just little 1159 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,680 Speaker 3: ones where he's like he beats me. He'd be like 1160 00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:21,160 Speaker 3: little stuff like I quote all the time. 1161 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:24,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, I should start saying that when my same game 1162 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:27,800 Speaker 5: parlays don't work out. You know, Lebron's a couple of 1163 00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:32,040 Speaker 5: points short, he beats me. You know, throw that out there. 1164 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:35,520 Speaker 5: All right, We've got Jared Smith Monster.

Okay, So Michael Malone, 1177 00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:25,440 Speaker 5: Denver Nuggets head coach, he made some interesting comments after 1178 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:29,280 Speaker 5: Denver one Game two, so up to nothing in the series, 1179 00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:34,400 Speaker 5: and he was talking about not being in the limelight exactly. 1180 00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 4: Here's what Malone had to say. 1181 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,240 Speaker 13: Whatever we can use for motivation. I think a lot 1182 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:41,479 Speaker 13: of our guys, to be honest, they may not admit 1183 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 13: this or not. You know, you win game one of 1184 00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:46,640 Speaker 13: the playoffs and all everybody talked about was a Lakers 1185 00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:50,920 Speaker 13: Let's be honest. That was a national narrative was, Hey, 1186 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 13: the Lakers are fined or down one. Oh, but they 1187 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:56,200 Speaker 13: figured something out. No one talked about Nicole ha just 1188 00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:59,920 Speaker 13: had a historic performance. He's got thirteen Chipple doubles, no 1189 00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:03,200 Speaker 13: third all time. What he's doing is just incredible. But 1190 00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 13: the narrative wasn't about the Nuggets. The narrative wasn't about Nicola. 1191 00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 13: The narrative is about the Lakers and their adjustments. So 1192 00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 13: you know, you put that in your pipe you smoke 1193 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 13: it and you come back and you know what, we're 1194 00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:14,440 Speaker 13: gonna go up too. 1195 00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:18,920 Speaker 5: Oh it's interesting right where I like this card that 1196 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:23,000 Speaker 5: he's playing, which is it's in the locker room. Right, 1197 00:58:23,080 --> 00:58:25,600 Speaker 5: It's like, hey guys, we're being overlooked. Hey guys, we're 1198 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 5: not getting our respect. When you're fighting not just to 1199 00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,960 Speaker 5: win a title, but you're fighting for respect. That matters, 1200 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:33,640 Speaker 5: That absolutely matters. 1201 00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 4: And he's right. 1202 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,480 Speaker 5: It was all about the Lakers, you would say, and 1203 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:40,520 Speaker 5: Jokic was fantastic, but and then it was all about. 1204 00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 4: Purple and gold. Purple and gold, purple and gold. 1205 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:46,960 Speaker 5: Those are the real Like Lebron's name, just name recognition 1206 00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:49,920 Speaker 5: is far superior than Nicola Jokic. 1207 00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,400 Speaker 4: It just is based on the resumes. 1208 00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 5: But Malone's right, And I like this tactic because if 1209 00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 5: you're selling that to a team, you try to create 1210 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:02,560 Speaker 5: this under narrative sometimes when it's not even true. Remember 1211 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:06,360 Speaker 5: when Alabama did that they're gonna play Cincinnati, oh man, 1212 00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:11,120 Speaker 5: and the guy the king of that, yeah, he's at it. 1213 00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 5: You try to create this. It's a real thing with Denver. 1214 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 5: So I think it makes all the sense in the 1215 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:18,320 Speaker 5: world to attack. 1216 00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:18,560 Speaker 2: It that way. 1217 00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 3: I and The best coaches are the ones that know 1218 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:26,280 Speaker 3: how to push buttons, and not in a bad way 1219 00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 3: like Grant Williams tried to push buttons last night and 1220 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 3: he pushed the wrong buttons. 1221 00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1222 00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 3: The best coaches understand their team's mental state better than physical. 1223 00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:42,480 Speaker 3: Let the trainers worry about if this guy's physically ready 1224 00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:46,720 Speaker 3: to play. The best coaches are the ones that can 1225 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:51,840 Speaker 3: diagnose their team and know exactly what buttons need to 1226 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 3: be pushed. Sometimes it needs to be tough, love angry, 1227 00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:58,160 Speaker 3: get under their skin a little bit. Sometimes it needs 1228 00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:01,040 Speaker 3: to be softer, it needs to be more or finesse approach. 1229 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,040 Speaker 3: The best coaches and I would put Malone in that 1230 01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:09,120 Speaker 3: category that definitely this season understand the vibes and the 1231 01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:13,560 Speaker 3: aura of their team and what it takes to elevate 1232 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 3: to the next level. And I think if I can 1233 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 3: translate what coach Malone is trying to say, here, stop 1234 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 3: sleeping on Nikola Jokic. 1235 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:29,600 Speaker 2: People. Yeah, and we have Let's be honest, we have. 1236 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:33,440 Speaker 3: The guy is the two time you can make an 1237 01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 3: argument should have been third time defending MVP. And we 1238 01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:43,400 Speaker 3: are just kind of floating through this postseason waiting for 1239 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 3: another team to say, yeah, they've got more star power 1240 01:00:47,960 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 3: than Denver. Denver is a nice team, but they're not 1241 01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:54,800 Speaker 3: flashy or sexy, and I don't think that's gonna happen, guys. 1242 01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:57,840 Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be a Denver. How about this 1243 01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:04,360 Speaker 3: for an NBA Finals Nuggets Heat? Wow, the two most undescript, 1244 01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 3: least flashy teams in the league. They get it done 1245 01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:14,360 Speaker 3: with grit, determination and not a lot of star power. 1246 01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 3: And I'm ready to change. I talked about this yesterday 1247 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:20,040 Speaker 3: and a bunch of shows. I'm ready to remove the 1248 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 3: really good player, not a star moniker from Jamal Murray. 1249 01:01:24,560 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 2: This dude's a star. Like he's a star. He is 1250 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:31,479 Speaker 2: taking over games in the fourth quarter. He is a star. 1251 01:01:32,120 --> 01:01:35,240 Speaker 3: And the other guy, who I think is kind of 1252 01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:37,120 Speaker 3: the I don't want to say, he's the robins of 1253 01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:40,400 Speaker 3: Jamal Murray's batman in this series, he just doesn't care 1254 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:44,280 Speaker 3: about stats or how he looks or how he sounds. 1255 01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 3: He's just let's go out there and win a game 1256 01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:50,840 Speaker 3: like it's It really is a modern day upset because 1257 01:01:50,880 --> 01:01:53,920 Speaker 3: most teams are so star driven and the Nuggets and 1258 01:01:54,040 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 3: the Heat are just cranking out team wins left and right. 1259 01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, Jamal Murray with only three points just in 1260 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:04,080 Speaker 5: the fourth quarter alone. He's the anti Tata bar right 1261 01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:06,920 Speaker 5: like Jason Tatum needs to be more like Jamal Murray 1262 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:10,800 Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter. Is Tatum hasn't hit a bucket 1263 01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:12,720 Speaker 5: in the fourth quarter in back to back game? 1264 01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:14,760 Speaker 2: Mind boggling, Brian, that's insane. 1265 01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:17,240 Speaker 5: And Jamal just gave you twenty three and one of 1266 01:02:17,280 --> 01:02:20,440 Speaker 5: the fourth quarters last game for the Nuggets. These are 1267 01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:23,440 Speaker 5: a couple of mind blowing stats with Jokic and how 1268 01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:26,720 Speaker 5: he hasn't gotten the recognition that he deserves even in 1269 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:28,520 Speaker 5: these first two games against the Lakers. 1270 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:33,120 Speaker 4: So he joins this guy named Wilt Chamberlain. 1271 01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:34,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've heard of him. 1272 01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:37,920 Speaker 5: It's Jokicic and Chamberlain who are the only players in 1273 01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:41,600 Speaker 5: NBA history to record at least twenty points, fifteen rebounds, 1274 01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:44,560 Speaker 5: and ten assists in back to back playoff games. 1275 01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:45,040 Speaker 4: That's it. 1276 01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:48,560 Speaker 5: It's Joker and Wilt and the other stat and this 1277 01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 5: is Jokic all by himself. No NBA player besides Jokic 1278 01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:57,760 Speaker 5: in a two game span has recorded at least fifty 1279 01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:01,120 Speaker 5: five points, thirty five rebounds, and twenty five assists. 1280 01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 4: That's over a two game playoff span. 1281 01:03:04,160 --> 01:03:08,200 Speaker 5: And Jokic in these two games fifty seven points, thirty 1282 01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:12,680 Speaker 5: eight rebounds, twenty six assists. Wow, in two games. And 1283 01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:16,920 Speaker 5: it's almost like he's not even front page news. Really no, right, 1284 01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 5: like you don't talk about him initially. It's insane to me. 1285 01:03:19,920 --> 01:03:22,040 Speaker 3: And they play in a market that's not gonna get 1286 01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:25,040 Speaker 3: a lot of love, right, Like, it's not again, it's not. 1287 01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:29,720 Speaker 3: There's nothing flashy about Denver. It's a fun town. I've 1288 01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:33,400 Speaker 3: been there, fantastic town, but it's not the biggest media market. 1289 01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:36,240 Speaker 3: It hasn't had a ton of success, with the exception 1290 01:03:36,360 --> 01:03:39,520 Speaker 3: of that little John La stint in the late nineties, right, 1291 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:43,080 Speaker 3: And it's a very I guess actually, Colorado's won the 1292 01:03:43,160 --> 01:03:44,120 Speaker 3: Stanley Cup last year, so. 1293 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:47,720 Speaker 2: Denver, listen, we're sleeping on Denver here. I guess Denver's 1294 01:03:47,720 --> 01:03:49,160 Speaker 2: about to go back to back. 1295 01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:52,240 Speaker 3: Colorado in the Stanley Cup last year and now the 1296 01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:55,680 Speaker 3: Denver Nuggets in the NBA Finals this year. And prior 1297 01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:57,200 Speaker 3: to that, of course, Colorado won the Cup in the 1298 01:03:57,240 --> 01:03:59,720 Speaker 3: mid nineties. But I think it's fair to say Denver 1299 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:01,920 Speaker 3: as a whole, as a media market is it's in 1300 01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:04,200 Speaker 3: the Mountain time zone. It's just it's such a it's 1301 01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:07,760 Speaker 3: such a unique media market, I guess, but man, we 1302 01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:10,240 Speaker 3: we are sleeping on this team. 1303 01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 4: You know, it's funny you what he said? 1304 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:15,840 Speaker 5: That what he said, Jared, Where the national narrative is 1305 01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:17,880 Speaker 5: that it's all about the Lakers. The funny thing is, 1306 01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:20,280 Speaker 5: like a few years ago, I used to host a 1307 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:23,280 Speaker 5: lot of fill in shows in Denver. The local media 1308 01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:26,440 Speaker 5: doesn't give the Nuggets a lot of attention to respect, 1309 01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,880 Speaker 5: It's all Broncos, Broncos, Broncos, Broncos. I'm sure they're talking 1310 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:32,440 Speaker 5: a little bit more about it right now, but typically 1311 01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:36,080 Speaker 5: they get completely lost in this shuffle. They're hardly talked 1312 01:04:36,120 --> 01:04:37,720 Speaker 5: about it also in their own town. 1313 01:04:38,920 --> 01:04:41,160 Speaker 3: And I've never lived in Denver, so I don't have 1314 01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:43,880 Speaker 3: the same context that I can give you in New York. 1315 01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:46,880 Speaker 3: And New York's obviously such a different sports town, but 1316 01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:50,880 Speaker 3: there are certain teams in New York that even when 1317 01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:55,040 Speaker 3: they are winning, nobody cares, yeah like it. New York 1318 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:57,560 Speaker 3: is a Yankees town, it's a Giants town. When the 1319 01:04:57,640 --> 01:05:01,320 Speaker 3: Mets and the Jets are having success, they need to 1320 01:05:01,440 --> 01:05:05,720 Speaker 3: have more success than you normally would in a town 1321 01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:08,160 Speaker 3: with two teams. And I know Denver doesn't have two teams, 1322 01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 3: but it gives me these vibes of you see these 1323 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:15,280 Speaker 3: teams kind of float through the postseason and then now 1324 01:05:15,520 --> 01:05:17,240 Speaker 3: at the end of the rainbow. I think we're gonna 1325 01:05:17,240 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 3: hear a lot more about Denver, obviously because we should. 1326 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 3: We should have been hearing about them all season. But 1327 01:05:21,960 --> 01:05:24,080 Speaker 3: I mean, they've had the best net rating in the playoffs, 1328 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 3: right they just they're they're deep, they're talented. I wish 1329 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:33,560 Speaker 3: that we had a different societal view of certain teams 1330 01:05:33,760 --> 01:05:36,000 Speaker 3: because they're not as sexy as others. 1331 01:05:36,160 --> 01:05:39,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I think that jokicch is like the Jets 1332 01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:41,520 Speaker 5: and the Mets, you know what I mean. For him 1333 01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:46,240 Speaker 5: to get the talk, he's got to do more than 1334 01:05:46,320 --> 01:05:49,840 Speaker 5: a typical star would need to do, because, like, let's 1335 01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:52,400 Speaker 5: put it this way, if Lebron the last two games 1336 01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:55,280 Speaker 5: gave you fifty seven points, thirty eight boards, and twenty 1337 01:05:55,360 --> 01:05:56,400 Speaker 5: six assists. 1338 01:05:56,080 --> 01:05:57,560 Speaker 2: We'd be talking about MVP. 1339 01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:01,240 Speaker 4: And I get it, it's gonna look different. 1340 01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:03,880 Speaker 5: Lebron's gonna do it with more style and it's gonna 1341 01:06:03,880 --> 01:06:06,560 Speaker 5: be more highlight driven, and yeah, that has an impact, 1342 01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:10,440 Speaker 5: but it's not like Jokics doesn't have that. The buzzer 1343 01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:14,520 Speaker 5: beating three over Anthony Davis. It's like he's had moments 1344 01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:15,080 Speaker 5: where you're like. 1345 01:06:15,240 --> 01:06:17,920 Speaker 3: Wow, two stars on their team, and you know, I 1346 01:06:18,040 --> 01:06:20,040 Speaker 3: know the Lakers do too, but the Lakers stars are 1347 01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:22,800 Speaker 3: not playing as well as the Nuggets stars. Like the 1348 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:26,320 Speaker 3: Nuggets have two guys that maybe when it's all said 1349 01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:28,840 Speaker 3: and done, like let's fast forward. Let's say the Nuggets 1350 01:06:28,880 --> 01:06:32,520 Speaker 3: win the NBA Finals this year and it's Jokics winning 1351 01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:34,720 Speaker 3: the MVP of the Finals the year that he didn't 1352 01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:36,720 Speaker 3: win the MVP of the regular season, which would be 1353 01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:40,400 Speaker 3: very ironic, I think, because he didn't even make it 1354 01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:42,120 Speaker 3: to the finals the two years. 1355 01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:42,760 Speaker 2: That he won MVP. 1356 01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:46,440 Speaker 3: And now you get I don't want to say controversy, 1357 01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:50,160 Speaker 3: but there's obviously been some some talk post regular season 1358 01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:52,480 Speaker 3: that yeah, you know Mark Jackson left him off the ballot. 1359 01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:54,000 Speaker 2: That was a mistake, right. 1360 01:06:54,920 --> 01:06:57,560 Speaker 3: I think this might have been the first year I 1361 01:06:57,640 --> 01:07:00,959 Speaker 3: can I can recall where a voter came out after 1362 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:03,880 Speaker 3: the voting it was like, yeah, I messed this one up. 1363 01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:05,560 Speaker 4: What never happens. 1364 01:07:05,600 --> 01:07:07,440 Speaker 2: These guys are always like no, I got it right, 1365 01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:10,600 Speaker 2: Come on this man, and he royally messed that up. 1366 01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:15,200 Speaker 2: He Wow, so hot that even got to take your 1367 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:15,680 Speaker 2: vote away. 1368 01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:20,200 Speaker 4: I think, right, yeah, voting privilege is what it was like. 1369 01:07:20,320 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 4: He didn't have him in the MVY, not even in 1370 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:24,920 Speaker 4: the ballot. Unbelievable. 1371 01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:27,760 Speaker 2: Oh my god, that just came. And Mark Jackson is 1372 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:30,880 Speaker 2: a smart guy. He is very he's basketball guy. He 1373 01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:32,040 Speaker 2: understands the little things. 1374 01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:33,840 Speaker 3: Mark Jackson was one of my favorite players to watch 1375 01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:35,520 Speaker 3: when he came to the next because he was kind 1376 01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:37,520 Speaker 3: of a heart and soul kind of guy. You would 1377 01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 3: think a guy like that would be able to understand 1378 01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:41,320 Speaker 3: what Nikolaykic brings to the tape. I don't want to 1379 01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:43,680 Speaker 3: make this a referendum on Mark Jackson, but the point 1380 01:07:43,760 --> 01:07:46,880 Speaker 3: is that I think I think the way that Nikola 1381 01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 3: Jokic plays basketball, even the great basketball minds, yeah don't 1382 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:51,800 Speaker 3: appreciate it. 1383 01:07:51,880 --> 01:07:52,400 Speaker 2: Fine, I know it. 1384 01:07:52,600 --> 01:07:55,200 Speaker 5: Sometimes he gets lost in the shuffle in their minds. 1385 01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:57,480 Speaker 5: It's wild like that. Someone who never gets lost in 1386 01:07:57,560 --> 01:07:59,840 Speaker 5: the shuffle, not on this show. 1387 01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:03,040 Speaker 4: And not in life. That would be Isaac Low and 1388 01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:04,520 Speaker 4: c With the latest. 1389 01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:09,040 Speaker 9: And inspired by your discussion about Denver's perception of the 1390 01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:12,520 Speaker 9: various sports, I decided to peruse the headlines of the 1391 01:08:12,680 --> 01:08:17,719 Speaker 9: Denver Post.

Parlays are bad guys, because 1497 01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:13,560 Speaker 3: what Brian is telling me here is that if he 1498 01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:15,639 Speaker 3: would have just bet all of these individually, you would 1499 01:14:15,640 --> 01:14:17,360 Speaker 3: have been what like seven and three. 1500 01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:21,320 Speaker 4: Somewhere around there. Yeah, you would have been over. 1501 01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:23,960 Speaker 3: Five hundred, and you would have outrun the juice most likely, 1502 01:14:24,040 --> 01:14:25,840 Speaker 3: even though when you're betting props the juice can be 1503 01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:26,479 Speaker 3: a little bit. 1504 01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:28,480 Speaker 2: Punitive. 1505 01:14:29,160 --> 01:14:32,479 Speaker 3: But I think overall, what Brian is telling me that 1506 01:14:32,600 --> 01:14:35,040 Speaker 3: if he was he didn't get greedy and tried to 1507 01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:37,880 Speaker 3: go for the big score and he just made a 1508 01:14:37,960 --> 01:14:40,439 Speaker 3: few smaller wagers to keep some skin in the game, 1509 01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:42,840 Speaker 3: he would have finished on the plus side of the ledger. 1510 01:14:43,080 --> 01:14:47,920 Speaker 2: You know, Brian likes to go for the big score. 1511 01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:50,040 Speaker 2: I don't blame you. A lot of betters do, but 1512 01:14:50,479 --> 01:14:56,800 Speaker 2: it's a lesson the parlays is what kills gambling rois well. 1513 01:14:56,920 --> 01:14:59,320 Speaker 5: And this is what you're saying to you say this 1514 01:14:59,439 --> 01:15:01,680 Speaker 5: all the time when we're doing the Football Show, is 1515 01:15:02,280 --> 01:15:05,920 Speaker 5: you know, sprinkle a half unit yeah on this long 1516 01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:06,759 Speaker 5: shot parlay. 1517 01:15:06,840 --> 01:15:07,880 Speaker 4: And that's the way you have to do. 1518 01:15:08,000 --> 01:15:10,479 Speaker 5: You have to manage your bankroll where if you dip 1519 01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:12,920 Speaker 5: your big toe in the parlay waters, make sure it's 1520 01:15:12,960 --> 01:15:15,280 Speaker 5: just a big toe, yep, and not your whole upper 1521 01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:17,639 Speaker 5: Torso you know what I mean, Like, don't. 1522 01:15:17,560 --> 01:15:21,439 Speaker 2: Go head first, yeah into the pool. Yeah. Unfortunately people 1523 01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:23,280 Speaker 2: don't and I understand, like I don't. 1524 01:15:23,439 --> 01:15:26,679 Speaker 3: I never like waxing poetic about gambling advice because it's 1525 01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:30,880 Speaker 3: like telling someone don't go to McDonald's and order five cheeseburgers. 1526 01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:32,680 Speaker 3: What if they really like cheeseburgers. Who am I to 1527 01:15:32,800 --> 01:15:35,599 Speaker 3: tell you not to eat a cheeseburger? Like I love 1528 01:15:35,680 --> 01:15:37,920 Speaker 3: cheeseburgers too, I'll go. There are McDonald's in order, you know, 1529 01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:44,040 Speaker 3: some mcdoubles on along. But if your goal is to win, huh, Like, 1530 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:47,439 Speaker 3: if your goal is to run a marathon, it's doesn't 1531 01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:51,559 Speaker 3: It doesn't help you to walk, right Like walking doesn't 1532 01:15:51,600 --> 01:15:54,560 Speaker 3: help you have to run. You have to train in 1533 01:15:54,720 --> 01:15:57,680 Speaker 3: order to achieve whatever goal you set forth. So if 1534 01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:02,240 Speaker 3: your goal is just to lose money on parlays, then yeah, 1535 01:16:02,320 --> 01:16:08,360 Speaker 3: you're doing it. You're you're doing a great job, right, No, 1536 01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:09,639 Speaker 3: But plays in general. 1537 01:16:09,439 --> 01:16:10,400 Speaker 2: It's just it's hard. 1538 01:16:10,680 --> 01:16:11,080 Speaker 4: It's hard. 1539 01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:15,439 Speaker 2: It's very hard, frustrating, and individual make another bed after that. 1540 01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:15,960 Speaker 2: That's a bet. 1541 01:16:16,400 --> 01:16:18,320 Speaker 4: You want to go individual, it's the better way to 1542 01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:20,400 Speaker 4: do it. But you know, half unit here and there 1543 01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:21,280 Speaker 4: have some fun. 1544 01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:23,880 Speaker 2: Maybe you long tom I to tell people how to 1545 01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:25,760 Speaker 2: spend their money. We've got to spend some money on 1546 01:16:25,840 --> 01:16:27,439 Speaker 2: some really dumb things in my lung.

And I mean listen, the three time 1559 01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:12,880 Speaker 5: MVP of the league, nine Pro Bowl seasons in his 1560 01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:14,479 Speaker 5: nine years in the NFL. 1561 01:17:15,200 --> 01:17:17,360 Speaker 4: This one is staggering too. He led the league in 1562 01:17:17,439 --> 01:17:19,439 Speaker 4: rushing in eight of his nine years. 1563 01:17:20,360 --> 01:17:21,160 Speaker 2: He was an. 1564 01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:25,920 Speaker 5: Outstanding football player and off the field as well, Jared, 1565 01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:29,920 Speaker 5: Where we're talking about social activism and you go back 1566 01:17:29,960 --> 01:17:33,439 Speaker 5: to the sixties when the world looked much much different, 1567 01:17:33,680 --> 01:17:37,320 Speaker 5: and Jim Brown was a huge, huge presence in the 1568 01:17:37,400 --> 01:17:41,599 Speaker 5: fight for equal rights and so as far as that goes. 1569 01:17:41,720 --> 01:17:45,120 Speaker 5: Jim Brown will always be remembered very fondly by many people. 1570 01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:46,880 Speaker 4: And that's the thing. I don't know how you feel 1571 01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:47,320 Speaker 4: about it, but. 1572 01:17:49,439 --> 01:17:53,400 Speaker 5: Certain guys whenever Jim Brown spoke, whenever I heard him 1573 01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:57,160 Speaker 5: speak about what needed to change and how things needed 1574 01:17:57,200 --> 01:18:00,720 Speaker 5: to be different, I always thought of it is like, man, 1575 01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:02,920 Speaker 5: he's right, you know what I mean, Like some people 1576 01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 5: the way they go about it, You're just like, I 1577 01:18:06,280 --> 01:18:08,200 Speaker 5: hear what you're saying, but it just lands wrong. I 1578 01:18:08,320 --> 01:18:11,120 Speaker 5: never felt that way when Jim Brown was speaking about, 1579 01:18:11,960 --> 01:18:14,000 Speaker 5: you know, getting changed to occur. 1580 01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:18,560 Speaker 3: In this country, renaissance man ahead of his time, actor, activists, 1581 01:18:19,360 --> 01:18:25,720 Speaker 3: you know, way more than just an athlete. And it's 1582 01:18:25,760 --> 01:18:27,800 Speaker 3: sad and I didn't get a chance to watch him play. 1583 01:18:27,840 --> 01:18:30,040 Speaker 3: And I saw a lot of tributes yesterday and I 1584 01:18:30,080 --> 01:18:31,960 Speaker 3: didn't really chime in because I feel a little weird 1585 01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:34,439 Speaker 3: sometimes when I, you know, in an athlete passes who 1586 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:38,160 Speaker 3: obviously transcends sports, but I didn't watch him play. I 1587 01:18:38,240 --> 01:18:40,720 Speaker 3: wasn't part of that generation, So it's I don't really 1588 01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:47,120 Speaker 3: have the context to add the obvious accolades you mentioned, 1589 01:18:47,200 --> 01:18:51,200 Speaker 3: are they go without saying I remember Jim as as 1590 01:18:51,240 --> 01:18:54,000 Speaker 3: an actor like one of my favorite movies, any given 1591 01:18:54,040 --> 01:18:56,439 Speaker 3: Sunday had his role in that movie. And again, I'm 1592 01:18:56,479 --> 01:18:58,240 Speaker 3: not trying to boil his career down to you know, 1593 01:18:58,400 --> 01:19:01,280 Speaker 3: one movie, but yeah, it just speaks to his depth 1594 01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:05,120 Speaker 3: as a human being to be able to play, you know, 1595 01:19:05,240 --> 01:19:09,080 Speaker 3: so many roles and touch so many people's lives. And 1596 01:19:09,160 --> 01:19:15,640 Speaker 3: then of course just his athletic career was i mean basketball, 1597 01:19:15,720 --> 01:19:19,960 Speaker 3: All American lacrosse player, like he did everything. So yeah, 1598 01:19:20,000 --> 01:19:22,480 Speaker 3: the world definitely got a little bit darker yesterday. 1599 01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:27,040 Speaker 5: Right, And look, part of his resume, he was accused 1600 01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:30,840 Speaker 5: of domestic violence multiple times, right, Like, that's part of it. Sure, 1601 01:19:31,080 --> 01:19:33,960 Speaker 5: and it's tricky because you don't want to speak ill 1602 01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:35,760 Speaker 5: of the dead. But he got some things wrong in 1603 01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:37,599 Speaker 5: his life, really wrong in his life, but he got 1604 01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:41,200 Speaker 5: a lot right, a lot right. And when you are 1605 01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:45,320 Speaker 5: really good at inspiring change, that's something that everybody is 1606 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:47,960 Speaker 5: good at. Like I thought, Tony Dungee largely has been 1607 01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:51,040 Speaker 5: very good at that where you're like, yeah, right, things 1608 01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:53,160 Speaker 5: do need to change. I thought Jim Brown largely did 1609 01:19:53,200 --> 01:19:56,519 Speaker 5: a great job in that department. Coming up next, this 1610 01:19:56,720 --> 01:20:00,599 Speaker 5: team is exactly what this other team should be. One 1611 01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:05,880 Speaker 5: team is exactly what the other team should be. We'll 1612 01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:08,879 Speaker 5: get to that. We are broadcasting live from the tyrack 1613 01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:11,400 Speaker 5: dot com studios.

Tyrack dot com the 1616 01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:23,360 Speaker 5: way tire buying should be. I couldn't help watching last 1617 01:20:23,439 --> 01:20:27,240 Speaker 5: night Jared Smith watching the Miami Heat beat Boston again. 1618 01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:30,840 Speaker 5: Miami up to nothing in the series, and I thought, 1619 01:20:30,960 --> 01:20:36,040 Speaker 5: you know what, Miami is exactly what the Memphis Grizzlies 1620 01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:41,320 Speaker 5: should be. But the main difference is John Morant is 1621 01:20:41,479 --> 01:20:46,000 Speaker 5: nowhere near the leader Jimmy Butler is. It can't be 1622 01:20:46,240 --> 01:20:49,519 Speaker 5: any more obvious where think about it. Memphis a two 1623 01:20:49,720 --> 01:20:53,439 Speaker 5: seed in the West, the Miami Heat an eight seed 1624 01:20:53,520 --> 01:20:56,679 Speaker 5: in the East. They're a play in team. Yeah, look 1625 01:20:56,720 --> 01:20:59,719 Speaker 5: at what Jah has around him and Jared Jackson junior 1626 01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:03,120 Speaker 5: guy's an All star. Like, what does Jimmy have around him? 1627 01:21:03,120 --> 01:21:06,200 Speaker 5: Bam Adebayo is a good player, but he's inconsistent. Memphis 1628 01:21:06,280 --> 01:21:08,440 Speaker 5: is more talented top to bottom. 1629 01:21:08,240 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 2: One hundred percent. 1630 01:21:09,240 --> 01:21:13,439 Speaker 5: But Jimmy Butler is such a better leader, so much 1631 01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:17,000 Speaker 5: more mature. And you watch, you'll see this all the 1632 01:21:17,080 --> 01:21:21,920 Speaker 5: time in the NBA that role players follow the lead 1633 01:21:22,200 --> 01:21:25,120 Speaker 5: of the star player, yep. And what you see in 1634 01:21:25,200 --> 01:21:28,880 Speaker 5: Miami you see a lot of grinders following the lead 1635 01:21:28,960 --> 01:21:31,640 Speaker 5: of Jimmy Butler. And what you see in Memphis you 1636 01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:35,280 Speaker 5: see a lot of immature guys following the lead of 1637 01:21:35,479 --> 01:21:38,880 Speaker 5: John Morant, who is unfortunately right now the poster child 1638 01:21:38,960 --> 01:21:39,719 Speaker 5: of being immature. 1639 01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:42,519 Speaker 3: And a lot of it too is coaching. And I 1640 01:21:42,560 --> 01:21:44,640 Speaker 3: don't want to take anything away from Taylor Jenkins, but 1641 01:21:45,640 --> 01:21:49,599 Speaker 3: he's not Eric Foulstra. It's just the the organizational. Pat 1642 01:21:49,680 --> 01:21:51,600 Speaker 3: Riley's the head of the Heat organizations. Like it's just 1643 01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:57,240 Speaker 3: there's so many positive influences at the top of the 1644 01:21:57,360 --> 01:22:01,680 Speaker 3: Heat organization to where they get the most out of 1645 01:22:01,760 --> 01:22:05,479 Speaker 3: their talent. Whereas and it's not a knock on Memphis, 1646 01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:08,080 Speaker 3: I think one of the biggest critiques in all of 1647 01:22:08,160 --> 01:22:12,000 Speaker 3: sports is not living up to the talent. Right, this 1648 01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:16,640 Speaker 3: organization drafts this player, they bring in this guy, and 1649 01:22:16,840 --> 01:22:21,799 Speaker 3: they underperform the expectations. Sometimes it's on the player, sometimes 1650 01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:24,000 Speaker 3: it's on the coach in the organization. I think in 1651 01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:27,640 Speaker 3: Memphis case, it's more player than organization. But also at 1652 01:22:27,680 --> 01:22:29,519 Speaker 3: the end of the day, it's fair to say that 1653 01:22:30,200 --> 01:22:35,120 Speaker 3: because of the positive structure that Miami has implemented as 1654 01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:41,000 Speaker 3: a franchise, it's easier for undrafted players to just basically 1655 01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:44,000 Speaker 3: roll out of bed and have success, whereas in other 1656 01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:50,000 Speaker 3: organizations it takes more of a collective grind. And Memphis, unfortunately, 1657 01:22:50,880 --> 01:22:55,040 Speaker 3: they don't have I guess, enough influence over joh to 1658 01:22:55,280 --> 01:22:57,759 Speaker 3: keep him from getting into trouble. 1659 01:22:57,840 --> 01:23:00,920 Speaker 2: I mean, let's be honest, the first mistake made this year, 1660 01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:02,240 Speaker 2: we gave. 1661 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:05,280 Speaker 3: Him a pass for he came back from suspension, everything 1662 01:23:05,320 --> 01:23:08,680 Speaker 3: seemed to be okay. They made the playoffs, obviously got 1663 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:15,479 Speaker 3: bounced early. But the second mistake is the exact same 1664 01:23:15,640 --> 01:23:19,760 Speaker 3: mistake just months later, literally the exact same thing. That 1665 01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:23,280 Speaker 3: tells me that there is a lack of institutional control 1666 01:23:23,439 --> 01:23:27,840 Speaker 3: going on in Memphis where they couldn't reel Jaw in. 1667 01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:31,599 Speaker 3: And I think that is a that's a long term issue. 1668 01:23:31,640 --> 01:23:34,040 Speaker 3: I don't think this is going to be fixed based 1669 01:23:34,080 --> 01:23:36,200 Speaker 3: off of a suspension. Jaw is gonna come back a 1670 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:38,400 Speaker 3: changed man and everything's gonna be hunky dory. 1671 01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:43,080 Speaker 2: This seems like a bigger issue. I don't think it's organizational. 1672 01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:46,720 Speaker 3: I think it's just overall collectively, you take jaw, you 1673 01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:48,840 Speaker 3: take what Memphis is as a franchise. Right now, you 1674 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 3: put those two things together. We haven't seen the growth 1675 01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,160 Speaker 3: that's needed from a guy that was taken second overall. 1676 01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:56,120 Speaker 3: And I showed glimpses of greatness throughout the early parts 1677 01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:56,599 Speaker 3: of his career. 1678 01:23:57,120 --> 01:24:00,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, man, I think when you start to come it 1679 01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:05,400 Speaker 5: stands out even more. Yeah, how immature Jai is because 1680 01:24:06,240 --> 01:24:09,160 Speaker 5: if you just look at John a vacuum, some people 1681 01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:12,559 Speaker 5: reduce it to man, he's super immature, but he's really young. 1682 01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:16,120 Speaker 5: Hopefully figures it out. Like just think about Jimmy Butler. 1683 01:24:16,400 --> 01:24:19,320 Speaker 5: Can you imagine Jimmy Butler doing this stuff? Or he 1684 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:23,160 Speaker 5: flashes a gun, he gets an eight game suspension, and 1685 01:24:23,280 --> 01:24:26,599 Speaker 5: then fast forward and he's doing the same thing two 1686 01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:29,479 Speaker 5: months later. Oh and by the way, before any of that, 1687 01:24:30,040 --> 01:24:33,719 Speaker 5: he's saying, I'm fine in the East, right like Jimmy 1688 01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:36,639 Speaker 5: Butler flipping around to what John said, I'm finding the West. 1689 01:24:37,320 --> 01:24:39,640 Speaker 4: And it's like, bro, you just put a bullseye on 1690 01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:41,680 Speaker 4: your entire team. Why would you do that? 1691 01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:42,439 Speaker 2: What's the game? 1692 01:24:43,280 --> 01:24:46,320 Speaker 5: And as a two seed they get bounced in six 1693 01:24:46,439 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 5: games an elimination game they lose by forty Can you 1694 01:24:49,320 --> 01:24:52,640 Speaker 5: imagine any of those things with Jimmy talking smack, not 1695 01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:55,680 Speaker 5: backing it up, getting bounced in an elimination game by 1696 01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:59,479 Speaker 5: forty flashing guns, facing a second suspension, making the same 1697 01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:03,280 Speaker 5: mistake two months later. It's insane, it's crazy, and some 1698 01:25:03,360 --> 01:25:06,639 Speaker 5: of these people that sugarcoat it. It's not hating on Jaw, 1699 01:25:07,280 --> 01:25:10,840 Speaker 5: it's just look, man, sometimes when you're young, you don't 1700 01:25:10,880 --> 01:25:13,680 Speaker 5: realize what you have here and now and what you're 1701 01:25:13,800 --> 01:25:17,560 Speaker 5: risking going forward. And John Morant clearly doesn't understand that. 1702 01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:20,040 Speaker 5: I hope he does figure it out. So I'm not 1703 01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 5: rooting against the guy. He's an insane talent. I hope 1704 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,840 Speaker 5: he does figure it out, and he's mature and he 1705 01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:28,200 Speaker 5: gets the most of his talent. He's got a lot 1706 01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:34,040 Speaker 5: of it. But it is no coincidence that you've got 1707 01:25:34,880 --> 01:25:37,839 Speaker 5: Jared Jackson Junior last season after they beat the Warriors 1708 01:25:37,920 --> 01:25:41,400 Speaker 5: in the regular season tweeting out strengthen numbers, and Klay 1709 01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:44,400 Speaker 5: Thompson certainly didn't forget that when the finals rolled around. 1710 01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:49,439 Speaker 5: Dylan Brooks good example, Jared, if Dylan Brooks ask yourself 1711 01:25:49,520 --> 01:25:52,479 Speaker 5: this where he was like, you know, Lebron's old, I 1712 01:25:52,560 --> 01:25:54,839 Speaker 5: poke bears and then he didn't back it up whatsoever 1713 01:25:54,880 --> 01:25:58,120 Speaker 5: in that first round series. Does Dylan Brooks do that 1714 01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:01,280 Speaker 5: if Jimmy Butler is this team mate, that's an honest question. 1715 01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:02,679 Speaker 2: It's a good question. 1716 01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:03,760 Speaker 4: I don't think he does. 1717 01:26:04,479 --> 01:26:05,160 Speaker 2: I don't think. 1718 01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:08,880 Speaker 5: Definitely the same Dylan Brooks. If he's following the lead 1719 01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:10,400 Speaker 5: of a superstar war Well, let's just leave. 1720 01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:12,320 Speaker 2: It at this. If Dylan Brooks did say it and 1721 01:26:12,439 --> 01:26:14,960 Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler was on the Grizzlies and Jimmy Butler didn't 1722 01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:17,080 Speaker 2: like it, Jimmy would have said something to Dylan, and 1723 01:26:17,240 --> 01:26:21,040 Speaker 2: Dylan probably makes a retraction, right Like if there was 1724 01:26:21,080 --> 01:26:24,600 Speaker 2: an issue with something that Dylan said, Jimmy, being the 1725 01:26:24,720 --> 01:26:28,559 Speaker 2: alpha of the team, would say, listen, Dylan, keep doing that. 1726 01:26:29,040 --> 01:26:32,400 Speaker 3: Like go out there and just try to make it better. 1727 01:26:32,439 --> 01:26:33,840 Speaker 3: And I know, once the cat's out of the bag, 1728 01:26:33,920 --> 01:26:36,599 Speaker 3: it's tough, but it goes. I love cliches. I know cliches. 1729 01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:38,840 Speaker 3: I have a lot of corny dad jokes. That's just 1730 01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 3: kind of my vibe. The cliche that I'll use here 1731 01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:42,960 Speaker 3: is fool me wants shame on the fool me twice, 1732 01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:47,200 Speaker 3: shame on me. Like if you fool someone once and 1733 01:26:47,320 --> 01:26:50,840 Speaker 3: you make a mistake, all right, that one's that one's 1734 01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:51,080 Speaker 3: on you. 1735 01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:55,400 Speaker 2: But you do it again. You don't learn from your mistake. 1736 01:26:56,479 --> 01:26:59,200 Speaker 3: That's on the person making the mistake, because if you 1737 01:26:59,360 --> 01:27:03,000 Speaker 3: are that foolish to make a mistake twice, and it's 1738 01:27:03,080 --> 01:27:06,879 Speaker 3: not just a little old mistake like you mispronounced someone's 1739 01:27:07,000 --> 01:27:11,880 Speaker 3: name or something innocent, you made a mistake that was 1740 01:27:12,439 --> 01:27:17,280 Speaker 3: clearly met with an immense amount of public scrutiny. Jahn 1741 01:27:17,320 --> 01:27:19,920 Speaker 3: Morant's first go around at the flashing of the gun 1742 01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:22,760 Speaker 3: on social media. We talked about it here on the show. 1743 01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:25,240 Speaker 3: It was talked about on every major network. I'm sure 1744 01:27:25,320 --> 01:27:27,760 Speaker 3: Jah heard it. I'm sure his people talk to him. 1745 01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:33,759 Speaker 3: For it to happen again in such a short period 1746 01:27:33,840 --> 01:27:37,480 Speaker 3: of time, it not only shows a lack of remorse, 1747 01:27:38,240 --> 01:27:41,360 Speaker 3: it's just it's just stupid like it. 1748 01:27:41,680 --> 01:27:43,000 Speaker 2: It doesn't make any sense. 1749 01:27:43,160 --> 01:27:46,200 Speaker 3: Like I always try to wrap things around logically, like 1750 01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:49,800 Speaker 3: what was this person thinking when they did something? And 1751 01:27:50,080 --> 01:27:53,320 Speaker 3: more often than not, I'm a pretty empathetic guy. I've 1752 01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:56,160 Speaker 3: made mistakes in my past. I give people the benefit 1753 01:27:56,280 --> 01:27:59,640 Speaker 3: of the doubt. There is no more benefit of the 1754 01:27:59,720 --> 01:28:00,800 Speaker 3: doubt with John Moran. 1755 01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:01,559 Speaker 2: It is wrong. 1756 01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:04,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's totally gone. There's no doubt about that. 1757 01:28:04,080 --> 01:28:08,000 Speaker 5: And that's the thing too, is, Look, I understand some 1758 01:28:08,080 --> 01:28:10,760 Speaker 5: people are gonna be young, immature, They're gonna make some 1759 01:28:10,840 --> 01:28:14,880 Speaker 5: bad decisions. I understand that, but I think two things. 1760 01:28:15,080 --> 01:28:19,120 Speaker 5: You can't just dismiss this wrongdoing as young and immature. 1761 01:28:19,479 --> 01:28:24,800 Speaker 5: Lebron came into the NBA with all this fanfare, all 1762 01:28:24,920 --> 01:28:27,240 Speaker 5: this hype, and he more than lived up to it. 1763 01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:30,120 Speaker 5: And he didn't do anything close to us stupid when 1764 01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:33,800 Speaker 5: he was that young, right, Like, don't sell me on. Oh, 1765 01:28:33,880 --> 01:28:36,439 Speaker 5: he's just immature and shoulder shrug it away. It's like, no, 1766 01:28:36,600 --> 01:28:38,920 Speaker 5: that's not good enough, man. And the other part of 1767 01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:42,360 Speaker 5: this is what you were just saying, is it doesn't 1768 01:28:42,360 --> 01:28:46,000 Speaker 5: even make sense where he's doing the same thing twice 1769 01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:50,519 Speaker 5: two months after he got suspended for eight games. It'd 1770 01:28:50,560 --> 01:28:53,439 Speaker 5: be like you if you cheat on your wife by 1771 01:28:53,479 --> 01:28:56,000 Speaker 5: hooking up with a supermodel, you know what I mean? Like, 1772 01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:59,600 Speaker 5: that's wrong, that's stupid. But at least I can understand 1773 01:29:00,160 --> 01:29:03,720 Speaker 5: how that happened, How that major mistake was made with 1774 01:29:04,000 --> 01:29:08,599 Speaker 5: John in another gun video. I don't even understand how 1775 01:29:08,760 --> 01:29:10,040 Speaker 5: that mistake is made. 1776 01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:13,400 Speaker 4: Again, I don't know. It doesn't add up. 1777 01:29:14,760 --> 01:29:16,720 Speaker 2: It's just it's it's asinine. 1778 01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:20,880 Speaker 3: And when I see people make and again it goes 1779 01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:25,559 Speaker 3: back to en court decisions. If you are that foolish 1780 01:29:26,160 --> 01:29:30,400 Speaker 3: when you are calm in your own you know, safe 1781 01:29:30,439 --> 01:29:32,920 Speaker 3: space of your house or your apartment, and you're. 1782 01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:35,799 Speaker 2: Making foolish decisions in that space. 1783 01:29:36,600 --> 01:29:39,479 Speaker 3: How can I rely on you to make the right 1784 01:29:39,720 --> 01:29:44,680 Speaker 3: decision when a million miles an hour, you know, basketball 1785 01:29:44,760 --> 01:29:47,479 Speaker 3: games flying up and down the court, and you have 1786 01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:51,439 Speaker 3: to make the right decision over and over and over again. 1787 01:29:51,680 --> 01:29:54,200 Speaker 3: That's the part about sports that I think gets lost 1788 01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:58,719 Speaker 3: in the weeds. It's not about being great once. Anybody 1789 01:29:58,840 --> 01:30:01,599 Speaker 3: can be great once. Any guy that's never played golf 1790 01:30:01,680 --> 01:30:03,880 Speaker 3: before in their entire life can walk up to a 1791 01:30:04,000 --> 01:30:06,439 Speaker 3: t and poke one and it goes in the hole 1792 01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:07,000 Speaker 3: and it's like. 1793 01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:09,120 Speaker 2: Wow, I'm the best golfer in the world. Yeah, do 1794 01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:10,280 Speaker 2: it again on the next hole. 1795 01:30:10,840 --> 01:30:11,080 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1796 01:30:11,120 --> 01:30:16,160 Speaker 3: It's consistency in sports, in my opinion, is where greatness 1797 01:30:16,280 --> 01:30:20,320 Speaker 3: is born. Greatness is not born from one guy stepping 1798 01:30:20,360 --> 01:30:23,680 Speaker 3: on the floor and dropping fifty in one game. Can 1799 01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:26,519 Speaker 3: you come back the next game and play at that level? 1800 01:30:26,640 --> 01:30:28,479 Speaker 3: And then the next game and the next game, and 1801 01:30:28,640 --> 01:30:31,800 Speaker 3: can you go in the gym and inspire your teammates 1802 01:30:32,040 --> 01:30:35,320 Speaker 3: to be better as well. And when you can't do 1803 01:30:35,479 --> 01:30:38,599 Speaker 3: that at the simplest of levels, which is not commit 1804 01:30:38,840 --> 01:30:43,200 Speaker 3: crimes by doing stupid things, how can I trust you 1805 01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:46,200 Speaker 3: to be a leader of men on a floor filled 1806 01:30:46,280 --> 01:30:49,200 Speaker 3: with alphas in a basketball game and then do it 1807 01:30:49,280 --> 01:30:51,120 Speaker 3: again for multiple seasons. 1808 01:30:50,920 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 2: And be in an MVP L like. 1809 01:30:52,680 --> 01:30:56,120 Speaker 3: It's just it removes all respect from the level of 1810 01:30:56,200 --> 01:31:00,000 Speaker 3: equation of consistency. Consistency in sports matters more than greatness. 1811 01:31:00,200 --> 01:31:04,680 Speaker 3: I'm convinced that consistency is what leads to greatness. And 1812 01:31:04,800 --> 01:31:07,760 Speaker 3: I can't take Josh seriously at face value based off 1813 01:31:07,800 --> 01:31:08,280 Speaker 3: of what he's. 1814 01:31:08,120 --> 01:31:08,880 Speaker 4: Done over the last year. 1815 01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:11,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, and hey, that's the thing is, look at Miami. 1816 01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:16,559 Speaker 5: Miami is a great example of consistency. The prime example. 1817 01:31:17,080 --> 01:31:20,479 Speaker 5: You win Game one in Boston, you're down by nearly 1818 01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:24,040 Speaker 5: double digits midway through the fourth quarter last night, you 1819 01:31:24,120 --> 01:31:26,439 Speaker 5: could have just said, that's not our night. We got 1820 01:31:26,479 --> 01:31:28,360 Speaker 5: to split on the road. That's what we were trying 1821 01:31:28,400 --> 01:31:31,599 Speaker 5: to do. They just keep grinding. They are as consistent 1822 01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:34,160 Speaker 5: as it gets. And that's all I'm saying is it's 1823 01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:38,200 Speaker 5: not a coincidence that Miami is up two to oh 1824 01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:44,240 Speaker 5: in the Eastern Conference Finals. They're led by Jimmy Butler, grinder, consistent, mature, 1825 01:31:44,960 --> 01:31:49,200 Speaker 5: He's got seven undrafted guys on his roster, and they've 1826 01:31:49,200 --> 01:31:51,200 Speaker 5: got a two zero lead in the Eastern Conference Finals 1827 01:31:51,240 --> 01:31:53,840 Speaker 5: after winning two road games in Boston. It's not a 1828 01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:56,880 Speaker 5: coincidence they are where they are, and it's not a 1829 01:31:56,920 --> 01:31:58,920 Speaker 5: coincidence Memphis is where they are. 1830 01:31:59,680 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 4: Lose by forty points. 1831 01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:05,040 Speaker 5: In an elimination game in round one, right Like, you 1832 01:32:05,120 --> 01:32:06,600 Speaker 5: can bury your head in the sand and be like, 1833 01:32:06,680 --> 01:32:09,280 Speaker 5: well they didn't have Brandon Clark or Steven Adams and 1834 01:32:09,360 --> 01:32:12,240 Speaker 5: play the well, well, well well game all you want, 1835 01:32:12,400 --> 01:32:16,280 Speaker 5: but the truth is their star player is immature and 1836 01:32:16,400 --> 01:32:19,960 Speaker 5: he is nowhere near the leader that Jimmy Butler is, 1837 01:32:20,120 --> 01:32:23,200 Speaker 5: and that has a seismic effect going forward on the 1838 01:32:23,280 --> 01:32:26,240 Speaker 5: rest of the roster. It just does in sports. And 1839 01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:28,560 Speaker 5: if you want to be blind to that fact, I 1840 01:32:28,680 --> 01:32:30,560 Speaker 5: can't help you. But that is staring you right in 1841 01:32:30,640 --> 01:32:31,000 Speaker 5: the faith. 1842 01:32:33,240 --> 01:32:35,120 Speaker 3: I couldn't have said it any better myself. And again, 1843 01:32:35,120 --> 01:32:39,280 Speaker 3: I think consistency in sports is very underrated. Consistency is boring. 1844 01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:43,639 Speaker 3: Waking up every day and doing the same routine every 1845 01:32:43,720 --> 01:32:46,840 Speaker 3: day is boring. People like varieties, the spice of life. 1846 01:32:46,880 --> 01:32:49,439 Speaker 3: People like doing different things, they like trying new things. 1847 01:32:49,960 --> 01:32:55,040 Speaker 3: In reality, the most boring athletes Nikolaiokisch, I'll throw it 1848 01:32:55,040 --> 01:32:57,000 Speaker 3: an example, Yeah, tend to be the most successful. 1849 01:32:57,280 --> 01:33:01,120 Speaker 2: The ones that have no life outside of their routine. 1850 01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:08,679 Speaker 3: They eat, sleep, and breathe, consistent routine, their diet, their nutrition, 1851 01:33:08,880 --> 01:33:11,080 Speaker 3: the way they go about their business with their families, 1852 01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:12,760 Speaker 3: how they balance the work life. 1853 01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:16,040 Speaker 2: That is what makes a great athlete. 1854 01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:19,120 Speaker 3: The ones who are the greatest are the ones that 1855 01:33:19,240 --> 01:33:24,680 Speaker 3: can compartmentalize all of those things and stay consistent with 1856 01:33:24,880 --> 01:33:28,880 Speaker 3: their routine. And I think Jaws just volatile all over 1857 01:33:28,920 --> 01:33:30,360 Speaker 3: the place. You don't know what he's gonna do next. 1858 01:33:30,840 --> 01:33:33,439 Speaker 2: That's not how you win in professional sports long term. 1859 01:33:33,800 --> 01:33:36,880 Speaker 5: Nope, well said, Hey, he's Jared Smith, Fox Sports Radio 1860 01:33:36,960 --> 01:33:40,200 Speaker 5: betting analyst. I'm Brian No, not a Fox Sports Radio 1861 01:33:40,200 --> 01:33:43,280 Speaker 5: betting analyst because I make bets one after. 1862 01:33:43,800 --> 01:33:46,479 Speaker 3: Stop making parlays. You're fine, You're making good picks. You're 1863 01:33:46,840 --> 01:33:47,559 Speaker 3: putting them all together. 1864 01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:51,679 Speaker 5: Like, Yeah, I like the positive spin on that.

Yeah, all those little babies put 1896 01:35:16,040 --> 01:35:18,360 Speaker 3: underneath the pad. You just hear everything Rich. 1897 01:35:18,280 --> 01:35:21,880 Speaker 4: Says, miked up footage is tremendous. Well, how about this. 1898 01:35:22,160 --> 01:35:24,799 Speaker 5: It's kind of a pretty good segue right there, Jared 1899 01:35:25,120 --> 01:35:28,080 Speaker 5: unintentionally is we've got some changes in the sports world. 1900 01:35:28,520 --> 01:35:29,000 Speaker 2: How about this? 1901 01:35:29,200 --> 01:35:32,280 Speaker 5: What do you think the Pac twelve They're gonna going 1902 01:35:32,360 --> 01:35:36,920 Speaker 5: to expand their access during college football broadcasts. 1903 01:35:37,000 --> 01:35:37,720 Speaker 4: So what are they gonna do. 1904 01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:41,760 Speaker 5: They're gonna have some in game coach interviews, They're gonna 1905 01:35:41,760 --> 01:35:45,840 Speaker 5: have some halftime locker room access. And look, I think 1906 01:35:45,880 --> 01:35:48,960 Speaker 5: a lot of people mostly would roll their eyes and 1907 01:35:49,040 --> 01:35:51,640 Speaker 5: be like, oh yeah, it can't miss television now. But 1908 01:35:52,360 --> 01:35:56,240 Speaker 5: every now and then it produces some gems. Not everything 1909 01:35:56,400 --> 01:36:00,200 Speaker 5: is gold. You're gonna get some coaching cliches, and the 1910 01:36:00,280 --> 01:36:02,840 Speaker 5: locker room footage isn't gonna exactly be like any given 1911 01:36:02,960 --> 01:36:07,240 Speaker 5: Sunday anything like that, but every now and then you 1912 01:36:07,400 --> 01:36:11,120 Speaker 5: get some gold. This was I'll use basketball as an 1913 01:36:11,160 --> 01:36:15,240 Speaker 5: example here. So this was the halftime interview in Game two. 1914 01:36:15,840 --> 01:36:18,920 Speaker 5: Lakers had the lead over the Nuggets. And this is 1915 01:36:19,040 --> 01:36:23,479 Speaker 5: what Lisa Salters asked Ruey Hachimura at halftime. 1916 01:36:23,560 --> 01:36:24,040 Speaker 4: Check this out. 1917 01:36:24,120 --> 01:36:25,120 Speaker 2: What it felt good to you? 1918 01:36:25,240 --> 01:36:27,280 Speaker 4: Offensive movie to the room. 1919 01:36:27,320 --> 01:36:30,200 Speaker 2: You know, they don't have a rep protector? So how 1920 01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:32,240 Speaker 2: was at film? And that's what I'm doing right now? 1921 01:36:32,520 --> 01:36:36,479 Speaker 5: Okay, So you know he said it fast there, but 1922 01:36:37,080 --> 01:36:41,000 Speaker 5: they don't have a rim protector like that. That's gonna 1923 01:36:41,080 --> 01:36:43,960 Speaker 5: be something that gets brought up the rest of the series. 1924 01:36:44,080 --> 01:36:47,439 Speaker 5: What Rui Hachimura said during halftime, So as it relates 1925 01:36:47,479 --> 01:36:50,120 Speaker 5: to Pac twelve football, they got to do whatever they 1926 01:36:50,200 --> 01:36:52,880 Speaker 5: can to put bells and whistles on that product and 1927 01:36:53,040 --> 01:36:55,600 Speaker 5: if a little bit helps, I'm here for it. 1928 01:36:56,080 --> 01:36:56,759 Speaker 2: Totally agree. 1929 01:36:57,960 --> 01:37:02,920 Speaker 3: So the XFL, I think championed it this year in 1930 01:37:03,080 --> 01:37:08,320 Speaker 3: terms of what they gave to us as an audience 1931 01:37:08,880 --> 01:37:11,439 Speaker 3: that was different than the NFL product. 1932 01:37:12,760 --> 01:37:15,000 Speaker 2: And I watched a lot of the XFL games this year. 1933 01:37:15,040 --> 01:37:17,160 Speaker 3: One of my friends in the business, Jim Monas is 1934 01:37:17,200 --> 01:37:20,320 Speaker 3: there is their head of operations, and you know, I 1935 01:37:20,680 --> 01:37:22,760 Speaker 3: gave him some advice on the gambling side, what are 1936 01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:24,400 Speaker 3: some things that you can do to maybe get more 1937 01:37:24,439 --> 01:37:28,880 Speaker 3: interest in the sport. And everything was always revolving around 1938 01:37:29,080 --> 01:37:33,439 Speaker 3: access and information because I think when you watch a 1939 01:37:33,520 --> 01:37:37,280 Speaker 3: game today, I think the and we're seeing this in 1940 01:37:37,320 --> 01:37:39,479 Speaker 3: the video game world too. In the entertainment world, well, 1941 01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:42,960 Speaker 3: let's be honest, sports entertainment. The most popular video games today, 1942 01:37:43,040 --> 01:37:45,840 Speaker 3: some of them are all first player VR games. You know, 1943 01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:48,639 Speaker 3: where you're kind of in the moment you're the first 1944 01:37:48,800 --> 01:37:51,320 Speaker 3: play the role player game. And VR has become very 1945 01:37:51,360 --> 01:37:54,519 Speaker 3: popular too because we want more we want more access, 1946 01:37:54,600 --> 01:37:59,400 Speaker 3: we want more live like feelings when we're watching something 1947 01:37:59,520 --> 01:38:02,400 Speaker 3: on our and I think the best way to do 1948 01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:07,639 Speaker 3: that is to put the user in the experience as 1949 01:38:07,760 --> 01:38:08,639 Speaker 3: much as possible. 1950 01:38:09,120 --> 01:38:11,479 Speaker 2: So the more access, the better. 1951 01:38:12,120 --> 01:38:15,400 Speaker 3: So and also from a gambling perspective, I would love 1952 01:38:15,479 --> 01:38:17,280 Speaker 3: to know what's going on in the halftime locker room 1953 01:38:17,439 --> 01:38:19,439 Speaker 3: with a lot of these teams. And we heard Peyton 1954 01:38:19,479 --> 01:38:21,360 Speaker 3: Manning on the many casts say, oh, they don't make 1955 01:38:21,360 --> 01:38:22,880 Speaker 3: a lot of adjustments at half. I don't know if 1956 01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:24,880 Speaker 3: I fully buy that. Maybe the players don't, but the 1957 01:38:24,960 --> 01:38:29,639 Speaker 3: coaches certainly do. And I'm curious at what said if 1958 01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:32,639 Speaker 3: there's a team that's getting beat in the first half 1959 01:38:32,760 --> 01:38:35,400 Speaker 3: because of X, I want to know if that is 1960 01:38:35,520 --> 01:38:38,439 Speaker 3: the big focus of the locker room speech, because maybe 1961 01:38:38,479 --> 01:38:41,080 Speaker 3: it gives us an opportunity to bet X in the 1962 01:38:41,200 --> 01:38:44,840 Speaker 3: second half. And I think when you talk about entertainment value, 1963 01:38:45,520 --> 01:38:48,559 Speaker 3: let's be honest, a lot of those PAC twelve games 1964 01:38:48,600 --> 01:38:51,080 Speaker 3: are on at times. They're on networks that people don't 1965 01:38:51,120 --> 01:38:53,320 Speaker 3: have access to to begin with. They don't want to watch. 1966 01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:57,320 Speaker 3: If you give them a more incentivize them to watch, 1967 01:38:57,640 --> 01:39:00,519 Speaker 3: Oh well, what's this coach going to say next? Now 1968 01:39:00,760 --> 01:39:02,439 Speaker 3: the coaches have to help out with that. You have 1969 01:39:02,520 --> 01:39:05,080 Speaker 3: to have some entertainment value there. There has to be 1970 01:39:05,240 --> 01:39:09,360 Speaker 3: some playing up, hamming for the camera. But if they 1971 01:39:09,400 --> 01:39:11,360 Speaker 3: can get some of these coaches and players to get 1972 01:39:11,400 --> 01:39:14,599 Speaker 3: on board and actually give us something to chew on, yeah, yeah, 1973 01:39:14,600 --> 01:39:16,120 Speaker 3: I could see this being very successful. 1974 01:39:16,439 --> 01:39:19,240 Speaker 5: I'd like to see college football in the NFL do 1975 01:39:19,360 --> 01:39:21,400 Speaker 5: a little bit more of what the NBA does with 1976 01:39:21,520 --> 01:39:24,080 Speaker 5: the micd up footage, and what they do is they 1977 01:39:24,240 --> 01:39:27,639 Speaker 5: just package it. It's a little, you know, thirty second quick, 1978 01:39:27,680 --> 01:39:31,479 Speaker 5: little highlight mintage and it gives you some good stuff. 1979 01:39:31,560 --> 01:39:35,000 Speaker 5: When you had joe El Embiid accidentally step on the 1980 01:39:35,160 --> 01:39:39,160 Speaker 5: head of Grant Williams's last round and then they're talking 1981 01:39:39,240 --> 01:39:42,479 Speaker 5: about it soon after, Yeah, that's gold right there. I 1982 01:39:42,520 --> 01:39:44,599 Speaker 5: would love to get more of that in college football, 1983 01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:45,320 Speaker 5: in the NFL. 1984 01:39:45,800 --> 01:39:46,240 Speaker 2: All of that. 1985 01:39:47,120 --> 01:39:51,000 Speaker 3: What it does is it gives us, It makes us 1986 01:39:51,120 --> 01:39:52,960 Speaker 3: feel like we're a part of it more than we 1987 01:39:53,080 --> 01:39:57,360 Speaker 3: really are. Yeah, And that is how you connect viewers 1988 01:39:57,439 --> 01:40:00,200 Speaker 3: to the game. That's how you make them feel like 1989 01:40:00,320 --> 01:40:03,920 Speaker 3: they're watching more than a product. They're actually watching something 1990 01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:06,920 Speaker 3: that they can relate to instead of just oh, the 1991 01:40:07,040 --> 01:40:10,040 Speaker 3: games on I'm going to watch because it's the game 1992 01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:14,800 Speaker 3: you're gonna watch. But now you're actually engaged. You want 1993 01:40:14,840 --> 01:40:18,640 Speaker 3: to know what's this guy gonna actually say? What's his personality? 1994 01:40:18,760 --> 01:40:20,320 Speaker 2: Like we all want to, you know. 1995 01:40:20,439 --> 01:40:23,040 Speaker 3: That's the reason that a lot of sports media personalities 1996 01:40:23,080 --> 01:40:26,400 Speaker 3: have become successful. It's not necessarily their knowledge. And don't 1997 01:40:26,400 --> 01:40:27,960 Speaker 3: get me wrong, a lot of them are very knowledgeable. 1998 01:40:28,200 --> 01:40:31,519 Speaker 3: But when you're watching them on TV or listening to 1999 01:40:31,600 --> 01:40:34,960 Speaker 3: them on the radio, you relate to them. You want 2000 01:40:35,040 --> 01:40:36,800 Speaker 3: to be around them, you want to hang out with them, 2001 01:40:36,840 --> 01:40:40,000 Speaker 3: watch the game, have a beer and talk. And the 2002 01:40:40,120 --> 01:40:43,320 Speaker 3: only way that you can learn about their personalities is 2003 01:40:43,360 --> 01:40:46,040 Speaker 3: if you get the off color stuff, the stuff that 2004 01:40:46,160 --> 01:40:49,439 Speaker 3: happens in between the lines. You know, the randomness of 2005 01:40:49,560 --> 01:40:51,720 Speaker 3: a sporting event. There's a lot of dull moments where 2006 01:40:51,760 --> 01:40:54,320 Speaker 3: people say things, what they're thinking, what they're feeling. That's 2007 01:40:54,360 --> 01:40:55,760 Speaker 3: how you get to know people, and that's how you 2008 01:40:55,800 --> 01:40:57,080 Speaker 3: know if you relate to them or not, or you 2009 01:40:57,160 --> 01:40:58,920 Speaker 3: don't or you don't relate to them and you're like, yeah, 2010 01:40:58,920 --> 01:40:59,920 Speaker 3: I don't like this person, get them off. 2011 01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:00,920 Speaker 7: Yeah. 2012 01:41:01,280 --> 01:41:05,439 Speaker 5: Hey, here's one other change too in the NFL, is 2013 01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:08,519 Speaker 5: that a wild card game this season is gonna be 2014 01:41:08,600 --> 01:41:10,839 Speaker 5: broadcast exclusively on Peacock. 2015 01:41:11,520 --> 01:41:12,840 Speaker 4: It's gonna be opposite access. 2016 01:41:13,280 --> 01:41:15,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, the first opposite of the first story we just did. 2017 01:41:16,160 --> 01:41:21,519 Speaker 5: Yeah, first live streamed postseason game ever. And so NBC 2018 01:41:21,720 --> 01:41:24,920 Speaker 5: Universal with Jones Peacock, they shell out in the range 2019 01:41:24,960 --> 01:41:28,240 Speaker 5: of one hundred and ten million dollars to stream this 2020 01:41:28,560 --> 01:41:31,679 Speaker 5: one game four hours. Yeah, and they've got about twenty 2021 01:41:31,760 --> 01:41:34,560 Speaker 5: one million subscribers. So they're absolutely trying to use the 2022 01:41:34,680 --> 01:41:36,080 Speaker 5: NFL to get more subscribers. 2023 01:41:36,280 --> 01:41:36,439 Speaker 2: Yep. 2024 01:41:36,960 --> 01:41:38,920 Speaker 5: And look, man, we're just gonna see more and more 2025 01:41:38,960 --> 01:41:43,040 Speaker 5: of this, this slow progression into the streaming realm. The 2026 01:41:43,160 --> 01:41:46,840 Speaker 5: one thing I dislike about this, Jared, is some of 2027 01:41:46,880 --> 01:41:50,160 Speaker 5: the most fun about watching these games is that you 2028 01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:54,280 Speaker 5: can discuss it with your friends, your family members, whatever, 2029 01:41:54,640 --> 01:41:55,760 Speaker 5: and it just sucks. 2030 01:41:55,520 --> 01:41:57,400 Speaker 4: If you're like, oh, man, you see that wild Card 2031 01:41:57,479 --> 01:41:58,200 Speaker 4: game and. 2032 01:41:58,320 --> 01:42:00,599 Speaker 5: My dad's like, no, I don't have peacock, or one 2033 01:42:00,600 --> 01:42:02,719 Speaker 5: of my friends like, now I'm not gonna buy peacock. 2034 01:42:02,760 --> 01:42:05,840 Speaker 5: I didn't see it, and you're like, oh, like, there's 2035 01:42:05,880 --> 01:42:08,600 Speaker 5: nowhere for us to go with that conversation. That's the 2036 01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:12,320 Speaker 5: one thing I dislike where the access is so limited 2037 01:42:12,439 --> 01:42:13,880 Speaker 5: and there are a lot of people that aren't gonna 2038 01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:15,880 Speaker 5: see it, and you can't compare notes about a game. 2039 01:42:17,160 --> 01:42:18,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's two things here. 2040 01:42:18,280 --> 01:42:21,240 Speaker 3: First of all, this will keep happening, you're right, because 2041 01:42:21,560 --> 01:42:23,840 Speaker 3: the NFL can get away with it. That's the second 2042 01:42:23,880 --> 01:42:30,000 Speaker 3: thing is the NFL is adept at getting you really 2043 01:42:30,120 --> 01:42:33,080 Speaker 3: upset about a change, and then at the end of 2044 01:42:33,160 --> 01:42:36,759 Speaker 3: the day nothing really changes because you watch it anyways, 2045 01:42:37,680 --> 01:42:43,479 Speaker 3: Like the NFL is elite at getting you to do 2046 01:42:43,680 --> 01:42:46,920 Speaker 3: something you don't want to do because it's the only 2047 01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:50,479 Speaker 3: way that you can watch the NFL. For example, it's 2048 01:42:50,520 --> 01:42:52,400 Speaker 3: a little different now here on the West Coast. I 2049 01:42:52,479 --> 01:42:54,000 Speaker 3: didn't mind it as much when I lived on the 2050 01:42:54,040 --> 01:42:54,519 Speaker 3: East Coast. 2051 01:42:54,720 --> 01:42:56,360 Speaker 2: It's not easy to get up at five am and 2052 01:42:56,400 --> 01:42:58,760 Speaker 2: watch these games in London, sure, especially when I've. 2053 01:42:58,680 --> 01:43:01,920 Speaker 3: Got eight twelve more hours of football to watch throughout 2054 01:43:01,920 --> 01:43:03,320 Speaker 3: the course of the day. We do all these shows, 2055 01:43:03,360 --> 01:43:05,599 Speaker 3: et cetera, et cetera. Now you're making me wake up 2056 01:43:05,720 --> 01:43:08,479 Speaker 3: four hours earlier to watch another game because the window 2057 01:43:08,560 --> 01:43:10,280 Speaker 3: is getting bigger. And now they do the London games 2058 01:43:10,320 --> 01:43:14,360 Speaker 3: and the Germany games. And I did it begrudgingly. I 2059 01:43:14,439 --> 01:43:17,439 Speaker 3: woke up at five am here locally and watched the 2060 01:43:17,479 --> 01:43:20,479 Speaker 3: football game I think two or three games this year 2061 01:43:20,840 --> 01:43:23,040 Speaker 3: overseas where I woke up at that time and watched. 2062 01:43:23,400 --> 01:43:26,120 Speaker 3: And then the next step of it is now the streaming, 2063 01:43:26,240 --> 01:43:28,559 Speaker 3: and you're gonna have to have Amazon Prime. Last year 2064 01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:29,920 Speaker 3: you had to have and a lot you know, Amazon 2065 01:43:29,960 --> 01:43:32,120 Speaker 3: Prime is a little easier to access than Peacock, I think. 2066 01:43:32,360 --> 01:43:34,879 Speaker 3: But there's a lot of people out there that probably 2067 01:43:34,960 --> 01:43:37,240 Speaker 3: turned on their TV that first Thursday and had no 2068 01:43:37,400 --> 01:43:41,200 Speaker 3: idea what they were doing. And they still did it though, 2069 01:43:41,720 --> 01:43:43,559 Speaker 3: and they tried to do it, and you could see 2070 01:43:43,600 --> 01:43:46,720 Speaker 3: the you know, the old man yelling at the cloud saying, honey. 2071 01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:49,439 Speaker 2: Why can't I get Pete Cocker or Amazon on the 2072 01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:52,719 Speaker 2: I just want to watch the Jets. And it's gonna 2073 01:43:52,800 --> 01:43:55,760 Speaker 2: keep happening because the NFL can get away with it. 2074 01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:57,800 Speaker 2: They can do it. You're gonna watch the games no 2075 01:43:57,920 --> 01:43:58,920 Speaker 2: matter what. They know. 2076 01:43:59,680 --> 01:44:03,519 Speaker 3: They've got you, hook line and sinker. They could do 2077 01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:07,120 Speaker 3: whatever they want, and we are still going to watch 2078 01:44:07,240 --> 01:44:07,880 Speaker 3: these games. 2079 01:44:08,080 --> 01:44:09,800 Speaker 5: The first thing I thought of when you said that 2080 01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:13,800 Speaker 5: about the NFL will complain, yet we'll still watch most 2081 01:44:13,880 --> 01:44:16,320 Speaker 5: of us. I'm like, I wish it worked the same 2082 01:44:16,360 --> 01:44:20,000 Speaker 5: way in relationships. You know, where it's you know what 2083 01:44:20,080 --> 01:44:22,479 Speaker 5: I mean, there's complaining, but they go along with it, 2084 01:44:22,640 --> 01:44:26,080 Speaker 5: Like we're gonna go to Vegas and watch football all day? 2085 01:44:26,920 --> 01:44:30,599 Speaker 2: Okay, Like, yeah, right, go along with it. You won't 2086 01:44:30,640 --> 01:44:32,800 Speaker 2: be there or she won't be there when you get that. 2087 01:44:33,040 --> 01:44:35,479 Speaker 4: That's that's exactly right, all right. 2088 01:44:35,640 --> 01:44:39,000 Speaker 5: I Low the man, the myth, the legend with the 2089 01:44:39,120 --> 01:44:41,880 Speaker 5: latest in the sports world, Isaac Glow and cron what's 2090 01:44:41,880 --> 01:44:42,080 Speaker 5: going on? 2091 01:44:42,280 --> 01:44:45,080 Speaker 9: I'm telling you, guys are right on mark my words. 2092 01:44:45,520 --> 01:44:50,000 Speaker 9: Sixty four, Super Bowls sixty four coming up on Crackle. 2093 01:44:51,640 --> 01:44:52,120 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. 2094 01:44:52,320 --> 01:44:54,559 Speaker 3: Let's be honest, guys, pay per view super Bowls coming. 2095 01:44:55,120 --> 01:44:58,599 Speaker 3: I hate that idea, I know, but it's coming. 2096 01:44:58,760 --> 01:45:00,960 Speaker 2: And guess what we're we're all gonna pay for it. 2097 01:45:01,040 --> 01:45:03,439 Speaker 4: I'm telling you, so, which one call your shot.

But 2138 01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:15,960 Speaker 9: remember when Dan Patrick did Sports Jeopardy that was on 2139 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:19,320 Speaker 9: Crackle at the time. Yeah, there's a bunch of you. 2140 01:47:19,360 --> 01:47:24,360 Speaker 3: Know, to b to I've heard of, Well, I have 2141 01:47:25,080 --> 01:47:29,160 Speaker 3: sixty five US what was that streaming? Fubo is what 2142 01:47:29,280 --> 01:47:29,599 Speaker 3: I use. 2143 01:47:29,680 --> 01:47:30,000 Speaker 2: They've got. 2144 01:47:30,600 --> 01:47:32,800 Speaker 3: Fubo is the only network that I've had that has 2145 01:47:32,880 --> 01:47:35,920 Speaker 3: the PAC twelve network on it specifically, I mean you 2146 01:47:36,040 --> 01:47:38,760 Speaker 3: have to actually had a twelve network. Is like, it's 2147 01:47:38,800 --> 01:47:39,639 Speaker 3: like digging for gold. 2148 01:47:39,880 --> 01:47:41,840 Speaker 9: I thought they were actually streaming on Foo Bars. 2149 01:47:44,320 --> 01:47:46,960 Speaker 5: It is Fox Sports Saturday. Here on Fox Sports Radio, 2150 01:47:47,040 --> 01:47:51,599 Speaker 5: Brian Knowing, Jared Smith with you. Archimpadre rich Ornberger out today. 2151 01:47:51,800 --> 01:47:52,800 Speaker 5: He'll be back next week. 2152 01:47:54,600 --> 01:47:55,759 Speaker 4: So here's the thing, Jared. 2153 01:47:56,000 --> 01:47:58,559 Speaker 5: You know, it's interesting because it was just a couple 2154 01:47:58,600 --> 01:48:02,880 Speaker 5: of days ago when the Sixers got bounced from the 2155 01:48:02,960 --> 01:48:06,560 Speaker 5: playoffs by the Celtics, and it was like, oh, this 2156 01:48:06,920 --> 01:48:10,040 Speaker 5: tanking never works, and the way this Celtics did it 2157 01:48:10,200 --> 01:48:13,040 Speaker 5: is so much better, and on and on and on. Look, man, 2158 01:48:13,240 --> 01:48:16,960 Speaker 5: there's no doubt Boston has been more successful than the 2159 01:48:17,040 --> 01:48:20,680 Speaker 5: seventy six ers. We're talking about the latest erow with 2160 01:48:20,840 --> 01:48:24,799 Speaker 5: Joel Embiid and then the Two Jays Jalen Brown, Jason Tatum. 2161 01:48:25,439 --> 01:48:28,800 Speaker 4: But here's the thing, Jared Boston hasn't won Jack either. 2162 01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:32,280 Speaker 5: Nope, right, Like, I know, Boston's been in the conference 2163 01:48:32,360 --> 01:48:34,920 Speaker 5: finals five of the past seven seasons. They've had a 2164 01:48:35,000 --> 01:48:39,840 Speaker 5: better run of success than Philadelphia has. But man, Philly 2165 01:48:40,000 --> 01:48:43,120 Speaker 5: was raked over the coals about a week ago. And 2166 01:48:43,200 --> 01:48:46,840 Speaker 5: now you fast forward after all this lovey dovey Celtics stuff, 2167 01:48:46,840 --> 01:48:48,720 Speaker 5: and oh, look at them, and look at the way 2168 01:48:48,800 --> 01:48:50,920 Speaker 5: Ange built it, and look at Tatum, look at Brown. 2169 01:48:51,040 --> 01:48:53,519 Speaker 5: They're down oh two against an eight seed in the 2170 01:48:53,600 --> 01:48:55,639 Speaker 5: conference finals. I just wanted to throw that out there. 2171 01:48:55,880 --> 01:48:57,320 Speaker 5: I think it's a very fair take. 2172 01:48:57,600 --> 01:49:00,200 Speaker 3: I think there's an alternate reality where eme Udokus still 2173 01:49:00,240 --> 01:49:02,200 Speaker 3: coaching the team, where maybe they have a little bit 2174 01:49:02,240 --> 01:49:04,280 Speaker 3: more of a fighting chance with some of the adjustments. 2175 01:49:04,360 --> 01:49:07,240 Speaker 3: Let's be honest, it's pretty obvious to me that Missoula 2176 01:49:07,240 --> 01:49:09,479 Speaker 3: has been a little outmatched in this series. I thought 2177 01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:12,960 Speaker 3: Timms had a chance to out fox faalstro I was wrong. 2178 01:49:14,360 --> 01:49:15,400 Speaker 2: Missoula's got no shot. 2179 01:49:15,680 --> 01:49:19,160 Speaker 3: Like, there is zero chance that Missoula is gonna make 2180 01:49:19,200 --> 01:49:24,280 Speaker 3: these wild adjustments over the next two days and Boston's 2181 01:49:24,280 --> 01:49:25,840 Speaker 3: gonna stroll in the South Beach and look like a 2182 01:49:25,880 --> 01:49:30,240 Speaker 3: different team tomorrow night. I don't see that being a reality. 2183 01:49:31,240 --> 01:49:34,439 Speaker 3: And I think Joe's out foxed in this series. And 2184 01:49:34,560 --> 01:49:38,000 Speaker 3: maybe there's a maybe there's another reality where em wouldn't 2185 01:49:38,040 --> 01:49:40,920 Speaker 3: have been, but he's not here right now coaching. This 2186 01:49:41,080 --> 01:49:43,439 Speaker 3: is the reality that we're living in, and the reality 2187 01:49:43,439 --> 01:49:45,519 Speaker 3: we're living in right now, it is going to take 2188 01:49:45,560 --> 01:49:48,080 Speaker 3: an asteroid striking the Earth. I think for Jimmy Butler 2189 01:49:48,160 --> 01:49:50,040 Speaker 3: in this Heat team to get knocked off their rocker, 2190 01:49:50,320 --> 01:49:52,280 Speaker 3: we are going to have to see some kind of 2191 01:49:52,680 --> 01:49:56,640 Speaker 3: massive adjustment with what the Celtics are able to do, 2192 01:49:56,880 --> 01:50:00,439 Speaker 3: how they combat the mental grind, and how Ja Tatum 2193 01:50:00,479 --> 01:50:02,599 Speaker 3: and Jalen Brown handle the fourth quarter of these games. 2194 01:50:03,439 --> 01:50:06,920 Speaker 3: And it's fair to critique Boston on the same level 2195 01:50:06,960 --> 01:50:11,720 Speaker 3: as Philly. I think both of these teams. There's really 2196 01:50:11,800 --> 01:50:13,920 Speaker 3: only two ways to look at it. It's we're very 2197 01:50:14,040 --> 01:50:15,720 Speaker 3: black and white in sports. I know we got into 2198 01:50:15,720 --> 01:50:18,320 Speaker 3: the honest discussion about the gray area of failure, but 2199 01:50:18,760 --> 01:50:21,960 Speaker 3: let's be honest, black and white winning a championship, not 2200 01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:24,679 Speaker 3: winning a championship. Boston and Philly are in the same boat. 2201 01:50:25,040 --> 01:50:27,439 Speaker 3: Maybe Boston's had a little bit more success, but they 2202 01:50:27,479 --> 01:50:28,479 Speaker 3: are still both. 2203 01:50:28,800 --> 01:50:29,599 Speaker 2: In the same boat. 2204 01:50:30,120 --> 01:50:34,640 Speaker 3: And I think the expectations with Boston maybe have been 2205 01:50:34,960 --> 01:50:38,680 Speaker 3: slightly higher, but they're still in the same boat as 2206 01:50:38,680 --> 01:50:40,479 Speaker 3: the seventy six ers. They've been to the top of 2207 01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:42,800 Speaker 3: the mountain, but they haven't been able to climb the peak, 2208 01:50:43,000 --> 01:50:46,160 Speaker 3: the final peak. They felt just short last year, and 2209 01:50:46,720 --> 01:50:49,920 Speaker 3: it looks like they're gonna fall too rung short this year. 2210 01:50:50,040 --> 01:50:52,639 Speaker 3: So I think all that criticism is fair. I don't 2211 01:50:52,640 --> 01:50:56,080 Speaker 3: know where Philly goes from here. The James Harden situation 2212 01:50:56,280 --> 01:50:58,680 Speaker 3: clearly is he's running a team now if if he's 2213 01:50:58,680 --> 01:51:02,720 Speaker 3: the one that got the Rivers fired. But there's a 2214 01:51:02,800 --> 01:51:04,640 Speaker 3: lot of a lot of negatives on both of these 2215 01:51:04,680 --> 01:51:05,559 Speaker 3: franchises right. 2216 01:51:05,479 --> 01:51:06,800 Speaker 2: Now with how they run behind the scenes. 2217 01:51:06,920 --> 01:51:10,360 Speaker 5: It really is wild to do the Celtics Sixers comparison 2218 01:51:10,760 --> 01:51:13,879 Speaker 5: because think of this Jared you had after the Sixers 2219 01:51:13,920 --> 01:51:16,880 Speaker 5: got embid, which by the way, has worked out marvelously 2220 01:51:16,960 --> 01:51:20,880 Speaker 5: for sure. They they went number one overall, they took 2221 01:51:21,040 --> 01:51:26,120 Speaker 5: Markel Foltz and the Celtics two picks later got Jalen Brown, 2222 01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:31,120 Speaker 5: and then the very next year Philly trades up to 2223 01:51:31,280 --> 01:51:36,120 Speaker 5: number one to take Ben Simmons, two picks later, Boston 2224 01:51:36,200 --> 01:51:41,080 Speaker 5: takes Jason Tatum. Yep, like pair one of those two guys, 2225 01:51:41,200 --> 01:51:45,000 Speaker 5: either Jason Tatum or Jalen Brown with Joel Embiid. Those 2226 01:51:45,040 --> 01:51:49,479 Speaker 5: are two monstrous swings and misses for the Sixers. And 2227 01:51:49,760 --> 01:51:52,040 Speaker 5: but that's the other thing, though, Jared is I think 2228 01:51:52,120 --> 01:51:55,880 Speaker 5: a lot of people associate tanking just with the Sixers, 2229 01:51:56,479 --> 01:52:00,400 Speaker 5: And it's like the Spurs didn't try like crazy to 2230 01:52:00,520 --> 01:52:04,120 Speaker 5: win every single game this year. They made some moves 2231 01:52:04,240 --> 01:52:09,920 Speaker 5: and they structured their roster to just coincidentally be fit 2232 01:52:10,080 --> 01:52:12,679 Speaker 5: to lose a bunch of games. When this guy Winbin Yama, 2233 01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:16,040 Speaker 5: who might be the next big thing, great prospect, could 2234 01:52:16,160 --> 01:52:19,840 Speaker 5: change the course of their franchise. I just think that, right, 2235 01:52:19,960 --> 01:52:23,560 Speaker 5: you can't poo poo tanking in all facets because it 2236 01:52:23,680 --> 01:52:26,599 Speaker 5: has worked for other teams before and it's probably gonna 2237 01:52:26,640 --> 01:52:27,680 Speaker 5: work for the Spurs right here. 2238 01:52:28,120 --> 01:52:31,320 Speaker 3: It's like a backhanded compliment. Sometimes it gets the person 2239 01:52:31,400 --> 01:52:33,920 Speaker 3: that you give it to more interested in you. Sometimes 2240 01:52:33,960 --> 01:52:35,720 Speaker 3: it backfires and goes the other way and they only 2241 01:52:35,720 --> 01:52:38,479 Speaker 3: look at the negative side of it. It depends on 2242 01:52:38,680 --> 01:52:43,520 Speaker 3: the DNA structure of that particular franchise. And let's diagnose 2243 01:52:43,680 --> 01:52:47,439 Speaker 3: the Philadelphia seventy six ers. Their DNA is not quite 2244 01:52:47,520 --> 01:52:50,960 Speaker 3: on the same championship winning level as the San Antonio Spurs. 2245 01:52:51,160 --> 01:52:53,519 Speaker 3: Let's be honest. San Antonio Spurs have a culture of winning, 2246 01:52:53,920 --> 01:52:57,799 Speaker 3: and this was a very strange year for them, but maybe. 2247 01:52:57,680 --> 01:53:01,559 Speaker 2: It was all by design. And this is a Spurs 2248 01:53:01,720 --> 01:53:02,719 Speaker 2: team that even. 2249 01:53:02,560 --> 01:53:05,519 Speaker 3: In their down years without you know, when they were 2250 01:53:05,560 --> 01:53:08,759 Speaker 3: going through that really impressive run in the early two thousands, 2251 01:53:08,760 --> 01:53:10,920 Speaker 3: they had Manu and Parker and Duncan, and then they 2252 01:53:11,040 --> 01:53:13,080 Speaker 3: kind of hit a little bit of a lull, but 2253 01:53:13,160 --> 01:53:17,080 Speaker 3: they were still with Kawhi Leonard, a really powerful successful franchise, 2254 01:53:17,640 --> 01:53:19,679 Speaker 3: and then it kind of really fell off the rails 2255 01:53:19,720 --> 01:53:21,880 Speaker 3: the last couple of years. And now they've hit rock 2256 01:53:21,960 --> 01:53:24,680 Speaker 3: bottom and now they get this refresh, They get to 2257 01:53:24,720 --> 01:53:27,880 Speaker 3: hit the refresh button, and I think it's gonna be 2258 01:53:27,920 --> 01:53:31,439 Speaker 3: a really quick rebuild because again, the championship culture. I think, 2259 01:53:31,880 --> 01:53:35,080 Speaker 3: for example, the Spurs don't have a culture of trust 2260 01:53:35,120 --> 01:53:38,000 Speaker 3: the process. That's not what is in their DNA. They're 2261 01:53:38,080 --> 01:53:41,640 Speaker 3: much more Yankees driven win every year. It's just this 2262 01:53:41,800 --> 01:53:43,920 Speaker 3: particular year. I think maybe they saw the writing on 2263 01:53:43,960 --> 01:53:45,400 Speaker 3: the wall and they said, listen, we've got a chance 2264 01:53:45,720 --> 01:53:48,400 Speaker 3: to really get this gap picked their women. Yon, I 2265 01:53:48,479 --> 01:53:51,880 Speaker 3: would if I was running a franchise, and I've had 2266 01:53:51,920 --> 01:53:54,800 Speaker 3: this conversation with my friends all the time, I would 2267 01:53:55,000 --> 01:53:56,560 Speaker 3: be open to tanking. 2268 01:53:57,760 --> 01:54:03,120 Speaker 2: In a classy way. But but you've you gotta read 2269 01:54:03,200 --> 01:54:03,920 Speaker 2: the room, right. 2270 01:54:04,240 --> 01:54:07,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was classy tanking by the Spurs where they're like, 2271 01:54:07,640 --> 01:54:08,439 Speaker 5: all right, let's tank. 2272 01:54:08,560 --> 01:54:11,360 Speaker 4: Let's just not give it a slogan like the process. 2273 01:54:11,520 --> 01:54:15,160 Speaker 4: Let's let's not hug it. Yeah, you know, publicly name. 2274 01:54:15,160 --> 01:54:17,479 Speaker 2: Brand our failures. 2275 01:54:16,960 --> 01:54:18,640 Speaker 4: Here, exactly, no doubt about that. 2276 01:54:18,680 --> 01:54:18,960 Speaker 2: All right. 2277 01:54:19,000 --> 01:54:23,160 Speaker 5: He's Jared Smith FSR betting analyst.

We'll see in the picks here in a second. 2299 01:55:40,400 --> 01:55:40,520 Speaker 3: Here. 2300 01:55:40,640 --> 01:55:43,200 Speaker 5: Props to the crew though, Bob Benson, our trusted producer 2301 01:55:43,600 --> 01:55:46,720 Speaker 5: John Ramos, always great to hang out with. Ramos here 2302 01:55:46,840 --> 01:55:51,080 Speaker 5: Technical producer extraordinaire Isaac Lohenkron crushing it on the updates, 2303 01:55:51,480 --> 01:55:55,800 Speaker 5: Top of the hour, up on game, TJ Hushman, Zada, Plexico, Burris, 2304 01:55:56,000 --> 01:55:59,320 Speaker 5: keep it locked, have tons of goodness for you at 2305 01:55:59,320 --> 01:55:59,960 Speaker 5: the top of the hour. 2306 01:56:00,360 --> 01:56:02,160 Speaker 4: You know, I was thinking about this, Jared before our 2307 01:56:02,200 --> 01:56:02,800 Speaker 4: picks today. 2308 01:56:03,640 --> 01:56:07,240 Speaker 5: I got a tweet here from Rick and he just wrote, 2309 01:56:07,920 --> 01:56:11,080 Speaker 5: Lebron James miss dunk was a winner. For me, as 2310 01:56:11,160 --> 01:56:13,800 Speaker 5: I had Joker scoring more than a D and Lebron 2311 01:56:13,920 --> 01:56:16,720 Speaker 5: in separate bets. He said, it's brutal to lose a 2312 01:56:16,760 --> 01:56:20,160 Speaker 5: basketball bet on one shot. I've had some of them 2313 01:56:20,240 --> 01:56:23,280 Speaker 5: go badly in March Madness in the NBA playoffs. Single 2314 01:56:23,360 --> 01:56:27,040 Speaker 5: bets are good, but I like two team teasers in 2315 01:56:27,120 --> 01:56:29,280 Speaker 5: the NFL. Now here's what I took away from that. 2316 01:56:29,520 --> 01:56:31,640 Speaker 5: Props to Rick winning both of his bets, and thank 2317 01:56:31,680 --> 01:56:36,720 Speaker 5: you for the tweet. Parlays get such a bad rap, Jared. 2318 01:56:37,240 --> 01:56:40,560 Speaker 5: You know, teasers don't get the bad rap that parlays do. 2319 01:56:41,080 --> 01:56:43,560 Speaker 5: And I'll just say this, all parlays are not created equal. 2320 01:56:43,800 --> 01:56:47,560 Speaker 5: You know, if you're chasing one twenty to one odds, 2321 01:56:48,200 --> 01:56:50,400 Speaker 5: it's probably not gonna cash, right, But if you have 2322 01:56:50,520 --> 01:56:53,600 Speaker 5: a parlay and it's basically even money or like minus 2323 01:56:53,800 --> 01:56:57,080 Speaker 5: one twenty, it's not the most absurd thing ever, but 2324 01:56:57,160 --> 01:56:59,280 Speaker 5: it gets lumped in with the crazy parlay bets. 2325 01:56:59,400 --> 01:57:03,520 Speaker 3: I agree parlays in general, so on average, the sports 2326 01:57:03,560 --> 01:57:07,080 Speaker 3: book makes about five cents for every dollar. 2327 01:57:07,160 --> 01:57:08,560 Speaker 2: It's called the hold percentage. 2328 01:57:08,800 --> 01:57:14,080 Speaker 3: For parlays, it's like twenty cents, So you're but you're right, 2329 01:57:14,120 --> 01:57:17,760 Speaker 3: though not all parlays are created equal teaser bets. If 2330 01:57:17,800 --> 01:57:20,200 Speaker 3: you tease the right numbers in the NFL, I can 2331 01:57:20,240 --> 01:57:20,960 Speaker 3: get behind them. 2332 01:57:21,240 --> 01:57:21,440 Speaker 4: Yeah. 2333 01:57:21,640 --> 01:57:23,600 Speaker 3: But a lot of times teaser bets, especially if you're 2334 01:57:23,600 --> 01:57:26,920 Speaker 3: teasing totals, that's a big no no. Listen, there's a 2335 01:57:26,920 --> 01:57:28,800 Speaker 3: lot of people out there in the sports gambling space 2336 01:57:28,840 --> 01:57:31,080 Speaker 3: that want to tell you all the ways not to bet. 2337 01:57:31,400 --> 01:57:32,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, because they're. 2338 01:57:32,400 --> 01:57:34,560 Speaker 3: Really smart and they're way smarter than you. Right, I 2339 01:57:34,680 --> 01:57:36,920 Speaker 3: want to talk down to you. I'll just tell you 2340 01:57:37,080 --> 01:57:40,240 Speaker 3: over time, you will likely lose if you make those bets. 2341 01:57:40,280 --> 01:57:43,080 Speaker 3: You can still do it, but you will likely lose. 2342 01:57:43,320 --> 01:57:43,760 Speaker 2: I hear you. 2343 01:57:44,040 --> 01:57:44,640 Speaker 4: It's just funny. 2344 01:57:44,680 --> 01:57:47,800 Speaker 5: The reaction is if you have an even money teaser, 2345 01:57:48,320 --> 01:57:50,960 Speaker 5: it's like, okay, if you have an even money parlay, 2346 01:57:51,000 --> 01:57:51,560 Speaker 5: it's oh. 2347 01:57:51,560 --> 01:57:54,960 Speaker 4: Man, Vegas was built on parlays. It's just funny. Okay, 2348 01:57:55,000 --> 01:57:57,120 Speaker 4: we got picks. What do you have for us today 2349 01:57:57,160 --> 01:57:57,560 Speaker 4: in this world? 2350 01:57:58,080 --> 01:58:01,120 Speaker 2: How about this? The no run first in the Marlins 2351 01:58:01,200 --> 01:58:01,880 Speaker 2: Giants game? 2352 01:58:02,320 --> 01:58:05,200 Speaker 3: Love that today. Those are my flavor bets in baseball. 2353 01:58:05,600 --> 01:58:08,760 Speaker 3: Yes run, no run first, inning, in and out in 2354 01:58:08,880 --> 01:58:10,520 Speaker 3: fifteen minutes.

The line I think is 2359 01:58:21,080 --> 01:58:24,360 Speaker 3: baking in the desperation that the Lakers are gonna play with. 2360 01:58:24,920 --> 01:58:28,360 Speaker 3: Probably like the Celtics game last night, probably over baked. 2361 01:58:28,560 --> 01:58:30,480 Speaker 3: But here's a couple of props for you. Bruce Brown's 2362 01:58:30,520 --> 01:58:32,880 Speaker 3: been on fire with his points prop He's hit that 2363 01:58:33,000 --> 01:58:35,480 Speaker 3: in a few straight and I mean, goodness, graces.
