1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,560 Speaker 1: You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Sports Radio. 3 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 2: You had a couple of games last night in the 4 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:11,960 Speaker 2: NFL and didn't really lived up to any kind of excitement. 5 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 2: We kept waiting for something to happen, certainly with the Buccaneers, 6 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 2: and it didn't. The excitement was the Blue Jays come 7 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 2: back to beat the Mariners and they headed to the 8 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,600 Speaker 2: World Series. And once again, Seattle is the only baseball team, 9 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 2: the only current baseball team to have never. 10 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 3: Made a World Series. 11 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 2: And you had one out, you had one batter, and 12 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 2: then you had Cal Rawley in the on deck circle. 13 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 2: That's what we were hoping for, at least end it 14 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 2: that way. He had an incredible season. Extremely emotional after 15 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 2: the game, felt like, you know, it was a disappointment 16 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 2: or they let Seattle down. They were a great story. 17 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 2: They went toe to toe. But you can't win those 18 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 2: two games in Toronto and come home and then lose 19 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 2: those games. Because Toronto was a really good team from 20 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 2: start to finish this year and they're not finished yet. 21 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 2: They go into the World Series. They'll be big underdogs 22 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 2: here against the Dodgers. We'll talk a little bit more 23 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 2: about that coming up. Lions handled the Buccaneers twenty four 24 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 2: to nine, and you know they lose Mike Evans, They're 25 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 2: already banged up, broken collarbone. Bucky Irving was already out 26 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,559 Speaker 2: like this is one of those It was going right 27 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,199 Speaker 2: and you're waiting for God winning Evans to come back, 28 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 2: and now it's not going to happen with Evans with 29 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 2: the broken collarbone. I think he got concussed on that 30 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 2: as well. But the Lions did what they're supposed to do. 31 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,839 Speaker 2: The Lions and the Chiefs right now the two best 32 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,839 Speaker 2: odds for the Super Bowl and not surprised at all 33 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 2: that they've kind of it took a little while, certainly 34 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 2: for the Chiefs, and you know, the Lions had been there, 35 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 2: tough schedule, but that was the game they had to have. 36 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: I think if the Buccaneers had won that one, then 37 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: we would continue to be like, wow, they are real. 38 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 2: The Lions had to win that game. It felt like 39 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 2: because you're at home, they have gone. I think the 40 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 2: number is fifty one consecutive games without losing consecutive games. 41 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 2: That's the longest streak in the NFL right now. 42 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 1: Whow stead of a day stall of a day, Statuta 43 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: day scant outa Day. 44 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 3: This is the stant of the. 45 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 2: Day STATAA day brought to you by it Panini America, 46 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 2: the official trading cards of the program. By the way, 47 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 2: if you go to the website, you can pick up 48 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: your Joe Flacco T shirt. I didn't think I would 49 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 2: be saying that this year, but uh, Flaco around and 50 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,960 Speaker 2: find out the T shirt is available. We're gonna have 51 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 2: it up there until their next game. Who do the 52 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 2: Browns play? Don't they play the Jets? All right, we 53 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,079 Speaker 2: might be able to keep it up for two more 54 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 2: weeks there, But Bengals in the Jets, they should say, 55 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 2: Flaco around and find out, Yes, Seaton. 56 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:05,079 Speaker 4: I have your Cleveland Browns. Their schedule is at New 57 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 4: England than at the Jets home against Baltimore at the Ravens. 58 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 4: There's a bunch of wins in there. Actually, oh there 59 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 4: could be. Okay, don't you think, well, what about the Bengals. 60 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's right. He's a Bengal now. Damn it. 61 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 3: It's so hard to separate it, it really is. 62 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 5: Jill. 63 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 6: Flacco's history with the Bengals is so story. 64 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 3: But it is nice to know what the Brown God, 65 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 3: damn it, that's right. 66 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 4: He's on the Bengals now, same state, same colors, save everything. 67 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 4: Yeah heck yeah, oh yeah, they're playing the Jets. They 68 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 4: got better receivers down south, and then the Steelers, then 69 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 4: the Patriots. 70 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 3: Okay, that's what the schedule is. 71 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 6: Yes, I know we have other things to hit, but 72 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 6: it's still so nuts that the Browns would help the 73 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 6: Bengals for a pick swap. They gave a decent quarterback 74 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 6: to the Bengals who were floundering. 75 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: But how many people said at the time, boy, they're 76 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 2: really giving the Bengals a boost. I don't know how 77 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 2: many people did because they thought, well, if he can't 78 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 2: be good for the Browns, can't start for the Browns. 79 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: He lost his job with the Browns, how good can 80 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 2: he be? And my point was, you still have those receivers. 81 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: As long as you keep Joe Flacco upright, that's it. 82 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: He'll still be able to throw the ball and you 83 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: got those receivers. That's why watching the Texans last night 84 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 2: with CJ stround, I mean, I don't know how good 85 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,559 Speaker 2: he is. You can say he's regressing. That offensive line 86 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 2: is not good. Not having an offensive line will make 87 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 2: every quarterback mortal. Everyone if you look at Mahomes in 88 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 2: two Super Bowls. He got humbled, he got embarrassed, he 89 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 2: was mortal. Why he didn't have an offensive line. If 90 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 2: Jared Goff played for another team, if he played for 91 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: the Texans, we'd go, what's wrong with Jared Goff in Detroit. 92 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: We he's got the best left tackle, he's got a 93 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 2: really good offensive line, really good weapons, and we go, man, 94 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 2: he could be MVP candidate. That's the difference. Brady, when 95 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 2: they blocked for him and the Super Bowl was unbelievable. 96 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: When he played against the Giants, they didn't block for 97 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 2: him and he got humbled. 98 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 3: That's the difference. 99 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 2: I don't care how good your quarterback is, you got 100 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 2: to have somebody blocking for him at some point if 101 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 2: you're going to be a winner. And if Joe Flacco 102 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 2: can get some protection there, just like Jared Goff did 103 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 2: last night, Golf didn't play well. He had Jamir Gibbs. 104 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 2: By the way, this is how it sounded with Jamir 105 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 2: Gibbs touchdown run last night cost. 106 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 5: Tampa to play a little bit tougher day. Walking down 107 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 5: hands to javert him. 108 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: There he goes foot race right side. 109 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 5: You've got no shot at catching that man. 110 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: Cut fun and. 111 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 7: Zone touchdown Detroit Lions seventy eight yards a boults of 112 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 7: lightning and the Lions are an extra portaway from doubling. 113 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 3: Up their lead. 114 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 2: That was a reminder game where you go, oh, that's right, 115 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 2: he's really good, like really good. He had an that's 116 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 2: courtesy of the ticket, the Lions radio network, and when 117 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 2: you look at Jamiir Gibbs and you look at what 118 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 2: he does, he's in an interesting category players who have 119 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 2: averaged five point three yards per carry or better in 120 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 2: their first three NFL seasons. This is since nineteen seventy 121 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 2: at least three hundred carries. Jamal Charles averaged six yards 122 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 2: per carry a chan with the Dolphins averaging five point 123 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 2: five yards, c J. Spiller five point three, and then 124 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:41,119 Speaker 2: Jamiir Gibbs five point three, Bo Jackson five point three 125 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 2: as well. I mean, averaging over five yards per carry. 126 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 2: That is some lofty territory there with Jamir Gibbs. But 127 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 2: he was wonderful last night. Baker Mayfield did not have 128 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: a great night. Kept waiting for something to happen. Kevin 129 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 2: Harlan and was on the call for Westwood One. He'll 130 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 2: join his next hour. We'll talk about that. I don't 131 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 2: know if he was waiting. I kept waiting for them 132 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 2: something to happen. And then the Mike Evans thing, I 133 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: mean devastating. You're losing a Hall of Fame receiver before 134 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 2: his season really even started. And here's Baker Mayfield upset 135 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 2: with the officials. 136 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 8: Still pretty damn confused about the double review. A lot 137 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 8: of things in that game that a little questionable, but 138 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 8: a lot of frustration at the end of that and 139 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 8: it might be displaced onto John Hussey in the moment, 140 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 8: but I work my ass off and I put a 141 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 8: lot into this game. So when things that I don't 142 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 8: seem are deemed fair, I'm going to let somebody know. 143 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 8: And that's good, bad, and different. 144 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, it can be expensive as well. But he was 145 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 2: dawn with the officials there. But that's frustration as well, 146 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 2: kind of taking over. But give Detroit credit. I mean, 147 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 2: that's a game you got to win against a really 148 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 2: good opponent. The Seattle win. I don't know who who 149 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 2: Seattle is. Like, there's a few teams that I don't 150 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 2: know how good they are. I know that defense is good. 151 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 2: I know that if Sam Donald plays mistake free football, 152 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 2: they're going to be in every game. You're five and two. 153 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 2: But I don't know what that five and two means, 154 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 2: because it can mean different. I mean levels of wow 155 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 2: they're five and two to five and two, they're wow. 156 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,040 Speaker 2: Can you believe they're five and two? But Seattle is 157 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 2: a tough place to play, and Sam Darnold has done well. 158 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 2: I don't know how good the Colts are, but I 159 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 2: did say I thought they were a playoff team we 160 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 2: started the season. You're in a bad division, and Danny 161 00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 2: Dimes has played really well, and they got some playmakers there. 162 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 2: Kansas City. I pick Kansas City and Detroit to go 163 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: to the super Bowl. Not a big leap there. And 164 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 2: I still think those are the two best teams right now. 165 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 3: I don't. 166 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 2: Maybe the Eagles are sort of up and down, never 167 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 2: quite sure. Not that vibe you had last year, maybe 168 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 2: more like the previous year. It's still there.

I'd always say that about the Cowboys. 177 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 2: Regular season is fun. Postseason that's for fame. That's where 178 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: when you do something, that's when you're remembered, or when 179 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 2: you don't do something, that's when you're remembered. 180 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, Paul, you know who's catching a lot of shrapnel 181 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 6: today and this week is the Minnesota Vikings. Brass Daniel Jones, 182 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 6: who was on the Vikings roster last year is playing 183 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 6: out of his mind. Sam Darnold's playing really well and 184 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 6: leading them to good days, and it's like revisionist history. 185 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 6: People are saying, man, they should have kept Sam Darnald. 186 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,440 Speaker 6: Not a lot of people said that last year at 187 00:09:59,440 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 6: the end of the season. 188 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 2: No, you had those two bad games at the end 189 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 2: of the year and they're like, oh, okay, it's done. 190 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 3: You know the whole thing that those are two. 191 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 2: Guys who got started in New York, and when it 192 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 2: goes bad in New York, it goes worse than any 193 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 2: other city in America, especially if you're a quarterback in 194 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 2: those cities. And Sam Donald was a high pick, so 195 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 2: was Daniel Jones and they failed and therefore it's all 196 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 2: on them. And then we kicked them to the curb. 197 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: And you know, we've kind of got to get used 198 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 2: to this reclamation, this comeback that you have with quarterbacks. 199 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 5: Now. 200 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 2: Granted, Sam Donald got bounced around to a couple of 201 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 2: different teams.

You know. 291 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 9: When I was at TNT, we had the Sunday CBS, 292 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 9: the Monday west Wood One Radio, and then Tuesday NBAS. 293 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 9: That was three games, three nights, three different cities, flights 294 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 9: in between. That was difficult and that was one of 295 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 9: the problems I think with NBC is that they have 296 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 9: Tuesday game on Peacock and so the Amazon thing made 297 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 9: sense in a variety of ways, but clearly their schedule 298 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 9: fit what I do in football a little bit better. 299 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 9: And you know how the business is. You get going 300 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 9: and the microphones on, and you seem to we love 301 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 9: the business. We answer the bell and we do the 302 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 9: best we can. 303 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: Of all the games you've done, where does the Giants 304 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 2: and Broncos rank. 305 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 9: I was talking to someone of the press box last 306 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 9: night here in Detroit, and I said, the problem with 307 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 9: the game like that, and you've covered a lot and 308 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 9: done so much, is that when it's going on and 309 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 9: you're seeing this monumental whatever is occurring, is that you're 310 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 9: trying to process it in real time. Unlike most people 311 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 9: that we watched that report on it have a chance 312 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 9: to digest it. You've got to make sure that as 313 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 9: you're going, you're keeping track of all the parts that 314 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 9: build up to the top of the pyramid and the conclusion. 315 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 9: And that's just want to make sure you're button down. 316 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 9: But thirty three points in one quarter is a pretty 317 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 9: significant number. I've never done a game like that, and 318 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 9: this is my forty first year doing the NFL stunning 319 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 9: and shocking, because even when it was twenty six to 320 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 9: eight and the Giants were leading in the fourth, you thought, well, 321 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 9: this a garbage touchdown here, They're going to just kind 322 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 9: of get some momentum going into the Brogers are going 323 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 9: to get some momentum going into the next game. And 324 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 9: it was hardly that. And I guess you need to 325 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 9: realize that these guys, once they catch a spark at 326 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 9: this level, they don't let it go. 327 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: Give me the difference between your job with anticipation and reaction, Well. 328 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 5: Everything for me is reaction. I don't. 329 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 9: I think if you let your mind go to what 330 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 9: could be and make sure that I'm ready for it, 331 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 9: that you lose what's actually going on in front of you. 332 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 9: I mean, I think there are different ways to handle it, 333 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 9: and you've done things like this before. I think the 334 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 9: best stuff that comes out is the stuff that is 335 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 9: organic and has the true you're you're so lost in 336 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 9: the game, and clearly you know what's coming up a 337 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 9: third down or a fourth down, or where they got 338 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 9: to get to the line the game. 339 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 5: But I think that that. 340 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 9: You just it's truly one step at a time handle 341 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,880 Speaker 9: that play, and then as that play ends, make sure 342 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 9: you're previewing what's ahead, so you've covered what's happened and 343 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 9: what's to come and how that play played into what's upcoming. 344 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 9: So or I've always I've always leaned on the organic 345 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 9: side of it and let my love of sports kind 346 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:42,959 Speaker 9: of come out. 347 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 2: I guess I kept waiting for Tampa to do something 348 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 2: last night. I don't know if you were getting that 349 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 2: sense of okay, better get it going getting late. 350 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 9: Well, Baker Mayfield, I mean, they had won all these 351 00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 9: games by three points or less, and he had come 352 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 9: back and engineered these phenomenal comebacks at home and on 353 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 9: the road. And Detroit was depleted in the secondary as 354 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 9: people have read and followed the game, missing most of 355 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 9: their starters back there, and kids that filled in were great. 356 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 9: The pass rush was there that offset the loss in 357 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 9: the secondary, and Mayfield didn't seem to have an answer. Now, Listen, 358 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,919 Speaker 9: he had Evans was out with a broken collar bonus 359 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 9: we learned later on in a shoulder injury and maybe 360 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 9: a concussion. Abuca was not one hundred percent. They're missing 361 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 9: the number one running back and Bucky Irving. I mean, 362 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 9: they had a lot of things that they were dealing 363 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 9: with offensively, so Mayfield's arsenal wasn't there and the things 364 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 9: that made him so special early in the season. Detroit 365 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 9: had an answer last night. It was pretty impressive. 366 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: Talking to Kevin Harlan NFL and CBS played by play, 367 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 2: I feel bad having you on. I can hear it 368 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,919 Speaker 2: in your voice, like, you know, just hanging there for 369 00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 2: a couple more minutes for. 370 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 5: You do anything. 371 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 9: When I saw this and go, gosh, I'm not very 372 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 9: good in the morning, and there's a lot there's a 373 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 9: lot of there's a lot of stuff that's got to 374 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 9: be cleared out. 375 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 2: But you go from pacing with TV a game on radio, 376 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 2: and then you go to NBA pacing, how do you 377 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 2: kind of you know, is there any real adjustment for 378 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 2: you when you're doing those different games on different you know, 379 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 2: whether TV or radio and different you know, foot football. 380 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 9: Is such a march, and I think that just for 381 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 9: me personally, I'm probably better with a cadence and a 382 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 9: rhythm and a flow and those kinds of things, and 383 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 9: I try to bring more of that to football because 384 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 9: to my ear, it's pleasing on basketball when it's like 385 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 9: a running conversation so for all these years I was 386 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,399 Speaker 9: with Reggie, and we really felt like there was a 387 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 9: nice rhythm established. We had so many years together, and 388 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 9: when it's like that in the NBA and the game flows, 389 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 9: I mean, you know, I mean, it just flows so well. 390 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 9: The one thing about college basketball is that the kids 391 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 9: don't shoot as well and the clock is longer, so 392 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 9: there's more time for an analyst to get his moment in. 393 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 9: Yet you can pick up the play with about eight 394 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 9: seconds on the shot clock, and that rhythm establishes itself, 395 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 9: and it really is pleasing from a broadcasting standpoint. NBA 396 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 9: is like a windshield, wipe it right. It's just back 397 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 9: and forth, baseline to baseline, but there's a rhythm that 398 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,359 Speaker 9: is established there. In the NFL, it's more like a march. 399 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 9: And you know, there's a segment where the analyst talks 400 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 9: and then you talk, and you want to get out 401 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 9: quickly and be efficient and let him get back to 402 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 9: what he's saying, because it's an analyst driven medium. In 403 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 9: the NFL on TV basketball I feel it's a fifty 404 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 9: to fifty split, But in football on TV it's analyst driven. 405 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 3: How hard is it to picture an NBA post Lebron. 406 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 9: Hard He's going to be out the first three four 407 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 9: weeks of this season, and every promo I see by 408 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 9: all the networks, it's Lebron making a play. He's not 409 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 9: going to be there in November or till November, late November, 410 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 9: maybe no October basketball for him. And it's it reaches 411 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,920 Speaker 9: even further than that. Curry and KD. You know, this 412 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 9: is the twilight of their careers, and I don't know 413 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 9: that anyone he has stepped up. 414 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 5: There are many. 415 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:35,199 Speaker 9: Candidates to go in there and fill in that void, 416 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 9: but it's coming when they're gone, and so much of 417 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,960 Speaker 9: the league is built on those three players, and it's 418 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 9: it's going to be hard to see like it was 419 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 9: when when Kobe retired and before that. 420 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,920 Speaker 5: You know, Michael, and have. 421 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 3: You ever used your voice for preferential treatment. 422 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 5: For preferential treatment? No? 423 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 2: No, no restaurant, no no, no. 424 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:03,120 Speaker 9: I it is recognized from time. I'm not recognized, but 425 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 9: when I open my mouth, So my wife says that 426 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 9: that should be an indication. Don't talk just just just just. 427 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 5: I get home. 428 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 9: You talk all the time when you're on the road 429 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 9: for your work. When you come home, you're still talking. 430 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 9: Let's let's let's let's let's quiet, let's have quiet time. 431 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 3: So you don't say I'll take the Caesar silhad. 432 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 9: No, No, how do you sound so good all the time? 433 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 9: Hen you're you?

But 437 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 9: when you're doing this show, those questions and they're so efficient. 438 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:46,960 Speaker 9: Every kid in broadcasting should listen and and copy that stuff. 439 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 9: I told you that before, but I really admire it, 440 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 9: and I'll I'll write if I'm never doing an interview 441 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 9: myself and I don't do any I'll do I'll put 442 00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,199 Speaker 9: literally swear to God DP on the top of my 443 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 9: board to remind myself.

Number two look 497 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 10: the health of Lebron and going forward for the Lakers. 498 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 10: I think with the transformation of Luca and his body 499 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 10: and the Lakers and having a full training camp, if 500 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 10: Lebron can come back or not come back and not 501 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 10: be the type of player that we just saw a 502 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 10: year ago, when he was an All NBA player. Obviously, 503 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 10: the Lakers are always on that radar. And who's going 504 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 10: to be the team in the East to break through? 505 00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 10: Boston down obviously with Tatum and the Achilles injury, even 506 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,639 Speaker 10: though there's rumblings he may come back, but clearly they 507 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 10: won't be the same. Obviously, Tyrese Halliburton and the Pacers 508 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 10: will be down to me. Cleveland sixty four wins a 509 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 10: year ago, the best record in the East, and the Knicks. 510 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 10: Let me say this for all my beautiful New Yorker, 511 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 10: my Knicks fans. 512 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,439 Speaker 5: If y'all don't win it this year coming out the East, 513 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 5: something is clearly wrong. 514 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 10: So to me, the two top teams in the East 515 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 10: are the Cavs and the Knicks. That would be my 516 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 10: third storyline. Who's going to break through and kind of 517 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,479 Speaker 10: reign supreme in the Eastern Conference? 518 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 3: All right, let me go back to the Lakers. 519 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 2: When Lebron comes back, He's been the man at every 520 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 2: team that he's been on. Now he's not the man. 521 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 2: It's Luca's team. I don't know if you ever felt 522 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 2: that in your career, but was nineteen years like, was 523 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 2: there ever a point where you weren't the main guy, 524 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 2: but getting used to that role. And I wonder about 525 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 2: Lebron accepting that, or can he or does he? 526 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 10: I think he can, I think he will, And yes, 527 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 10: I think all aging star players. I wouldn't put myself 528 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,520 Speaker 10: in that category with Lebron, but we've all gone through it, 529 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 10: and I welcomed it, and I know exactly for me 530 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 10: when it happened. It was the year after we went 531 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 10: to the finals. I had ankle surgery. We were starting 532 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 10: new Isaiah Thomas was coming in for Larry Bird. 533 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 5: We had just traded for Jemaine O'Neil. 534 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,959 Speaker 10: So clearly we were going younger and if we wanted 535 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:06,720 Speaker 10: to continue that level of excellence, I knew that I 536 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 10: had to take a step back. And I knew that 537 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:15,120 Speaker 10: Jermaine O'Neill, Al Harrington, Jonathan Bender, Jamal Tinsley, those guys. 538 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 5: Were going to have to grow. 539 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:20,360 Speaker 10: And not that Luca needs to grow, because he's already 540 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:23,439 Speaker 10: an All NBA player, But I think this is a 541 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 10: welcome sight for Lebron. 542 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,719 Speaker 5: Let's remember I mentioned this before. 543 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 10: He was All NBA just the year ago, and his 544 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 10: numbers in year twenty two were unbelievable. I don't know 545 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 10: if he'll have those type of numbers, but I think 546 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 10: taking a step back and letting Luca carry the load. 547 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 10: There's nothing wrong with a twenty five or twenty six 548 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 10: year old carrying the load. And I knew my time 549 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 10: would come come playoffs when I was with Jermaine and them, 550 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 10: so I just kind of wanted to tread water for 551 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 10: the regular season, and once middle of March April hit Dan, 552 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 10: that's when I would ramp up my minutes, my conditioning 553 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 10: to get ready for the grind of the playoffs. 554 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 5: And I think we'll see a lot of that from Lebron. 555 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it could be a good thing that 556 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 2: maybe you can limit those minutes even when he comes back, 557 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 2: because this is about the postseason. But we're looking at 558 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 2: OKC is the big favorite here, Denver's also in there, 559 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 2: and then the East is you know, without Tatum in there, 560 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 2: Boston is fallible. Do you think the Knicks are the 561 00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 2: best team in the East. 562 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 5: I do. 563 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 10: I think still Cleveland will have the best record and 564 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 10: they'll win the East again the regular season, but they 565 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 10: haven't proven themselves in the playoffs. And as greate as 566 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 10: Domovan Mitchell has been all NBA as great as Evan 567 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 10: Bobley is becoming, I think he'll take another step. 568 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 5: I love their starting five, I love. 569 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 10: Coach Kenny Atkinson, but they just haven't been able to 570 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 10: get over the hump come playoff time. I know the 571 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 10: Knicks and it's a little bit different this year now 572 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 10: that my Brown's at the helm, and the. 573 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 5: Offense will be a little bit different. 574 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 10: But at the end of the day, they've got the 575 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 10: best clutch player in Jalen Brunson and just the cohesiveness 576 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 10: of the NIXT team. I think come playoff time they'll 577 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 10: be able to take that next step. 578 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 5: Again, there's a lot of games to be played. 579 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 10: Obviously, all this is barn injury, as I always say, 580 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 10: but I just think the Knicks they're poised to take 581 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 10: that next step and represent the East. 582 00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 3: What do you expect out of Golden State. 583 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 10: Barn injury. Look, Steph has to remain healthy. I know 584 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 10: he played seventy games a year ago. Draymond a full 585 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,719 Speaker 10: season and training camp with Jimmy Butler. 586 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 5: That can help. But to me, if the Warriors want 587 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 5: to take the next step, it has to come from within. 588 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 10: Brandon Jamitski and Quentin Post, those two young players if 589 00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 10: Pajemski can take that next leap. 590 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 5: I know he's twenty two to twenty three, but this young. 591 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 10: Man has everything it takes to be a great side 592 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 10: piece and sidekick for Stephen Curry. So if the younger 593 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 10: guys can develop, get timely shooting from Buddy Hill. The 594 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 10: problem is the West is loaded and there's ten to eleven 595 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 10: teams and every night you're going to be in a dogfight. 596 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 10: So a rolled ankle by Curry and he's out for 597 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 10: a little bit. I don't know if there's going to 598 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 10: be enough scoring. You know they have a puncher's chance 599 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 10: because of Curry. 600 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 2: I'm glad you clarified the side piece, by the way. 601 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 3: Just doing la work. Reggie Miller the Hall of Famer. 602 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 2: He'll be on the call tonight with Mike Tarico and 603 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 2: Jamal Crawford. Oh, best shooter in the building will be 604 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 2: who come. 605 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 5: On, man, stop it. 606 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 3: I love ja, best scoring, best scorer in the building. 607 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 10: Now stop it too, Stop me too. I know, j 608 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 10: Cross unbelievable. Now you're saying who has the best handles 609 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 10: at the table? I'm gonna give that to Jamal. 610 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 3: Okay, but I was a score too, not just a shooter. 611 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 2: What do you think is the ceiling for SGA to average? 612 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 2: How many points do you think, well, let me let 613 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 2: me rephrase it. How many points do you think he 614 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 2: could average a game? Not They probably don't want him 615 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 2: getting thirty They wanted to be a team effort. 616 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 3: But how many Well he. 617 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 5: Everged thirty two a year ago. 618 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 10: I think he can average thirty five easy, just because 619 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 10: of his skill set. I think that number comes, it'll 620 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 10: come down a little bit. 621 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 5: I think it'll be high early because Jalen Williams is out. 622 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 10: The second best player on this team out with the 623 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 10: Risks injury, won't be in the starting lineup opening night, 624 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 10: So I think his scoring is going to be up 625 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 10: until Jay Dubb comes back. But I think they would 626 00:32:56,720 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 10: like that number anywhere between twenty eight two thirty thirty 627 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 10: one points because less is more. But this dude is 628 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 10: such a gifted playmaker and score. He's got it all DN. 629 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 2: But how did he not he came up in the 630 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 2: three point era. He's not the top fifty with three pointers. 631 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 10: But I think he's developed it to developed it to 632 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 10: keep teams honest. He can knock them down, but he's 633 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 10: a throwback. He's an old school type player that likes 634 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 10: to get to the mid range. And as we know, 635 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 10: come playoff time, what's more effective when the game becomes 636 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 10: a half court game, your mid range game. So during 637 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 10: the regular season, everyone's all about the threes, and I 638 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 10: get it, but people need to understand what playoff basketball 639 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 10: is all about. And for a player that's so young 640 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 10: at the age of twenty seven to recognize that. And again, 641 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 10: he does have a three point shot, he just doesn't 642 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 10: shoot the volume of him like a lot of players do. 643 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 10: He understands where his bread is buttered. 644 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 3: Michael Jordan's rolled at NBC. What have you been told? 645 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 5: Absolutely nothing? 646 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 3: You're not curious? 647 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 5: Oh I am very curious. I can't wait. 648 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,919 Speaker 10: I mean to have him a part of whatever part 649 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 10: he wants to play in this broadcast. I'm all for him. Yeah, 650 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 10: it's great, but they don't tell us anything. I'm very 651 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 10: low man on the total pole. 652 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 11: No, you goto probably below you. 653 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 3: You got to ask Tariko Turco. 654 00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 2: I think it's going to be sort of like Kobe 655 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 2: inside the mind of Kobe details that. 656 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 5: Wouldn't you like to see that? I would love to 657 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 5: see that. Yeah, and you hear that. 658 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 2: You imagine if he was a color commentator on a game, 659 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 2: he would just roast people with me. 660 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 5: It wouldn't that be great. 661 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:55,279 Speaker 11: Including not not only the players on the court, but 662 00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 11: he would be roasting Jericho Jamal myself. 663 00:34:58,560 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 5: But I can't wait. 664 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 2: But can great players get inside their own heads to explain? 665 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 2: Like sometimes? And I only go from memory where I 666 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 2: asked John mcenroy said how do you do what you do? 667 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 2: And he goes, I don't know, I just do it. 668 00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:18,280 Speaker 2: I don't know if great players analyze what made them great? 669 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 10: Well, look, I will say what's made Charles Barkley great 670 00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 10: on TV is that it comes from a place of honesty. 671 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 10: That's kind of MJMJ is front and center. He's not 672 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 10: going to sugarcoat anything. Mac was the same way. When 673 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 10: you listen to Mac on all those unbelievable you know, 674 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 10: Wimbledon's and French opens and US opens, it comes from 675 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 10: a place of honesty because of experience. Number one, they've 676 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 10: been there, they're champions. But they're just telling it like 677 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 10: he is. And I think a lot of people at 678 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 10: home they appreciate that. 679 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 3: Kevin Durant two more years, ninety million dollars. 680 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,799 Speaker 10: This is the perfect for him, though Theodore is think 681 00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 10: of this when I watched Houston a year ago. I 682 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 10: love the young talent, I love the heart, I love 683 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,879 Speaker 10: the being well coached by he May. They had all 684 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 10: the pieces, but against Golden State in that first round 685 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 10: when those games got tight. As good as a champion 686 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:20,319 Speaker 10: as Fred van Vliet is, he's only six to one 687 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 10: and he can only do so much. Now you go 688 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:27,799 Speaker 10: out and get arguably one of the best closers, scores, 689 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 10: shooters that. 690 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:30,359 Speaker 5: This game has ever seen. 691 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 10: And oh, by the way, even though he says he's 692 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 10: six ten, six eleven, he's really like seven to one. 693 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 5: This was the perfect fit. 694 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 10: For him, A veteran surrounded by some young gung slingers 695 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 10: and well coached, a good bench, perfect move And this 696 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 10: is how Diabola cole the league is. 697 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 5: Are you kidding me? 698 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 10: Opening night, we're gonna send him back to the place 699 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 10: where he won an MVP, knowing that there is so 700 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:02,720 Speaker 10: much I should say animosity towards him in this building. 701 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 10: Oh by the way, we're gonna raise the banner, get 702 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 10: our championship rings while you look on. You can't write 703 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 10: a better script than that theme. 704 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:11,200 Speaker 2: Okay, what do you think his career would have been 705 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 2: like had he stayed in Okac, I. 706 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 10: Think they would have won a championship if him and 707 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 10: Russ we're here, I really do. I mean, when you 708 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:21,440 Speaker 10: were up three to one against Golden State, they were 709 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 10: supposed to be going head to head battle for battle 710 00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 10: for the next five or six years. 711 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:29,360 Speaker 5: I really do believe they would have won a championship 712 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:29,880 Speaker 5: here together. 713 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:30,360 Speaker 4: I do. 714 00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,600 Speaker 2: I think the Rockets are the tallest starting five in 715 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 2: the NBA. 716 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 3: Does that sound right? 717 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:36,359 Speaker 5: Yes? 718 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,760 Speaker 10: They are, and they're starting it tonight, and that's gonna 719 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:43,080 Speaker 10: be interesting because if I'm OKC and I'm Cason Wallace, 720 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 10: and I'm Alex Caruso. 721 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 5: And I'm SGA, I'm going like this. 722 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,479 Speaker 10: Remember the Thunder had the number one defense a year ago. 723 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 10: They forced the most turnovers in seventeen, they had the 724 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:58,280 Speaker 10: most deals a game in ten.
