<v Speaker 2>But before we get to what we will be talking

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:41.800
<v Speaker 2>about after an absolutely glorious weekend of NBA Playoffs, let's

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:44.959
<v Speaker 2>discuss what we won't be talking about. What is not

0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:49.440
<v Speaker 2>on the show today is rich Strike winning the Kentucky

0:01:49.480 --> 0:01:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Derby and eighty to one shot blew up all my

0:01:52.640 --> 0:01:56.120
<v Speaker 2>trifectas and superfectas and exact is how the hell does

0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:58.640
<v Speaker 2>it get horse that was not even in the race

0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.280
<v Speaker 2>Friday morning when the Kentucky Derby. So I guess we

0:02:01.320 --> 0:02:05.080
<v Speaker 2>are talking about Missy Elliott retweeted us multiple times. Shout

0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 2>out to Missy Elliott, shout out to Lil Wayne, and

0:02:08.280 --> 0:02:11.680
<v Speaker 2>well hold on, put me on the camera. Please, What

0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:13.920
<v Speaker 2>do you mean we're not talking about Jokic winning the

0:02:14.000 --> 0:02:18.320
<v Speaker 2>MVP hours ago? It was you guys are seeing this

0:02:18.400 --> 0:02:22.200
<v Speaker 2>Tuesday morning. We are recording this Monday afternoon hours ago,

0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:27.320
<v Speaker 2>Adrian Wadrinarowski release that he has been told Nikoli Jokich

0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:29.440
<v Speaker 2>is gonna win the MVP. Now, we all knew this

0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:31.280
<v Speaker 2>was going to happen, but there was still I was

0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:34.440
<v Speaker 2>still holding out slight hope that maybe it wouldn't.

0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:35.519
<v Speaker 3>But it has.

0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:37.000
<v Speaker 2>So they say, we're not talking about it. We are

0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:38.600
<v Speaker 2>going to talk about it for just a moment. I

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:41.560
<v Speaker 2>know you're sick of the Joki stuff, demons, I don't care.

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:47.440
<v Speaker 2>Here's the deal, guys, it is just impossible to me

0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:53.360
<v Speaker 2>to believe that people could be watching these playoffs and

0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:56.640
<v Speaker 2>watch what Yiannis is doing, Watch what the Sixers looked

0:02:56.680 --> 0:02:59.320
<v Speaker 2>like the two games without Embiid and the two games

0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:02.480
<v Speaker 2>with Embiid and this series, watch what Luka is doing

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:06.600
<v Speaker 2>on a nightly basis, and still be like, Yeah, Nikola Jokic,

0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:09.760
<v Speaker 2>he's the best player in basketball. So I would have

0:03:09.960 --> 0:03:12.960
<v Speaker 2>less of an issue with Jokic winning the MVP if

0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:16.040
<v Speaker 2>the folks who voted for him overwhelmingly. We're gonna see

0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:18.480
<v Speaker 2>when the votes come out that it was overwhelming, if

0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:21.680
<v Speaker 2>they had some shame, if they had some humility, But

0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:25.880
<v Speaker 2>they won't. So instead, here's what I request triple down

0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:29.160
<v Speaker 2>on it. Guys, He's gonna put up these same numbers

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:31.720
<v Speaker 2>next year. Let's go three in a row. I am

0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:36.280
<v Speaker 2>now rooting for Nikola Jokic to win MVP again because

0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:40.080
<v Speaker 2>folks tell me it's a regular season award. Playoff success

0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:43.600
<v Speaker 2>doesn't matter at all, all time historical standing doesn't matter

0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:46.440
<v Speaker 2>at all, and what happened the year before shouldn't matter

0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:51.240
<v Speaker 2>at all. So if Jokic has unbelievable BPM plus and

0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:53.920
<v Speaker 2>VORP and PR next year, let's just give it to

0:03:54.000 --> 0:03:57.119
<v Speaker 2>him again because by the way, he will. And last

0:03:57.160 --> 0:04:02.000
<v Speaker 2>little point, those precious advanced analytics that folks act like

0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:03.120
<v Speaker 2>are infallible.

0:04:04.160 --> 0:04:05.360
<v Speaker 3>You do realize that.

0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:08.400
<v Speaker 2>A big part of his case was defensively, he was

0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:11.600
<v Speaker 2>better than Embiid this year. He was better than Giannis

0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:14.880
<v Speaker 2>this year. You watching these playoffs, is that you still

0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:17.640
<v Speaker 2>think that or you think maybe it's a little embarrassing

0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:20.039
<v Speaker 2>for the league. Then for the second straight year they're

0:04:20.080 --> 0:04:23.360
<v Speaker 2>gonna have to award the MVP via Skype. I think

0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.520
<v Speaker 2>it is all right, Demanse got that out of the way.

0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:28.680
<v Speaker 2>What are we starting with? Because I have a feeling

0:04:28.680 --> 0:04:30.919
<v Speaker 2>it is something I'm much more excited to talk about

0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:33.559
<v Speaker 2>than Nikolea Joki's winning another silly MVP.

0:04:33.920 --> 0:04:36.080
<v Speaker 4>He sounded pretty excited to talk about him that or

0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:38.520
<v Speaker 4>winning the Okay, fair enough, but we all know you

0:04:38.600 --> 0:04:41.960
<v Speaker 4>started your celebration with Luca and the MAVs. Oh they

0:04:42.000 --> 0:04:45.480
<v Speaker 4>took game four to tie this series. Yeah, what's going

0:04:45.520 --> 0:04:49.400
<v Speaker 4>on here? Are the Suns just overrated? Is Luca unstoppable?

0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:52.359
<v Speaker 4>Or is this just another CP three playoff curse?

0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:55.719
<v Speaker 2>All right, a little bit of everything. I want to

0:04:55.800 --> 0:04:56.960
<v Speaker 2>start with Chris Paul.

0:04:57.960 --> 0:04:59.560
<v Speaker 3>Now, all right, I'm.

0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 2>Gonna explain something to you because I think it's fair

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:05.680
<v Speaker 2>to say you know nothing about tennis, right, about the

0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 2>rules of tennis.

0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:10.280
<v Speaker 3>So the numbers, they go about fifteen and thirties at.

0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:13.520
<v Speaker 2>Fifteen thirty, okay, you know that, but they in general,

0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:16.120
<v Speaker 2>you don't know a lot about tennis. So here's so

0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:20.040
<v Speaker 2>in men's tennis, it does. It goes fifteen thirty forty game.

0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:22.479
<v Speaker 2>So you need to win four points to win a game, okay,

0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:25.760
<v Speaker 2>And you need to win six games to win a set,

0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:28.400
<v Speaker 2>and you need to win three sets to win a match.

0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:32.359
<v Speaker 2>It's best three out of five sets. Okay, this this,

0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:34.159
<v Speaker 2>this will make sense in just a moment and in fact,

0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:36.119
<v Speaker 2>you know what, I'm so confident this will make sense

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:39.720
<v Speaker 2>for our social team. Put this out there, starting right

0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:45.040
<v Speaker 2>about now. Where Chris Paul is in his career is

0:05:45.080 --> 0:05:48.960
<v Speaker 2>like an aging great tennis player who will go into

0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:55.320
<v Speaker 2>a match and say, I can't be excellent every set,

0:05:56.640 --> 0:06:00.080
<v Speaker 2>and in fact, I'm going to need to take a

0:05:59.880 --> 0:06:04.359
<v Speaker 2>game or multiple games or a set off just forfeiting,

0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.600
<v Speaker 2>essentially not try to fight and claw. So I lose

0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 2>the set six to four. But if I know I

0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:13.160
<v Speaker 2>can't win the set, lose it six love, save my

0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:15.159
<v Speaker 2>energy so I can win the next one because I

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:17.599
<v Speaker 2>only need to win three out of five. That's where

0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 2>Chris Paul is right now in these series. Watch him

0:06:19.960 --> 0:06:23.560
<v Speaker 2>in the Pelican series unbelievable nineteen points in the fourth quarter,

0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 2>thirty points in the game, zero turnovers than a four

0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:30.120
<v Speaker 2>point game, whereas in the Sun series unbelievable tortures Luke

0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:33.680
<v Speaker 2>in the fourth quarter of Game two, seven turnovers, awful

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:37.400
<v Speaker 2>in game three, fouls, fouls out of game four. So

0:06:37.640 --> 0:06:41.520
<v Speaker 2>Chris Paul can't be great every night at this point,

0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:43.640
<v Speaker 2>just turn thirty seven. The question is can he be

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:45.359
<v Speaker 2>great four out of seven times?

0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:46.120
<v Speaker 3>Thus far?

0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:48.279
<v Speaker 2>As in this series he's been great two out of seven.

0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 2>I think he has determined that if he tries to

0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:55.800
<v Speaker 2>be above average to very good every single night, he

0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:59.440
<v Speaker 2>won't have any great performances. So I think he is sacrificing.

0:06:59.800 --> 0:07:04.159
<v Speaker 2>He's just taking the out on certain management within the game.

0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:08.720
<v Speaker 2>Exactly right. So he's thirty seven. He's been excellent or

0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:11.400
<v Speaker 2>awful in almost every playoff game this year. I think

0:07:11.440 --> 0:07:13.120
<v Speaker 2>he's like an aging tennis player. I think it makes

0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:16.920
<v Speaker 2>sense the Sun's being overrated. I don't know that they're overrated.

0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:19.040
<v Speaker 2>I do know what they did the first two games

0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:22.360
<v Speaker 2>was not sustainable. They were shooting like sixty five percent

0:07:22.440 --> 0:07:25.360
<v Speaker 2>on long tubes. And the reason the Sun should be

0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:29.000
<v Speaker 2>nervous is this, it's two to two in the series.

0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:33.559
<v Speaker 2>They are as a team, as a team shooting fifty

0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:36.920
<v Speaker 2>forty ninety. For this series, you shoot, they're fifty one

0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:40.160
<v Speaker 2>percent from the field, forty three percent from three and

0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:43.320
<v Speaker 2>ninety percent from the line. You go fifty forty ninety.

0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:46.200
<v Speaker 2>As a team that's going to regress a bit, that's

0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:48.640
<v Speaker 2>going to water's going to find its level that you

0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:50.960
<v Speaker 2>need to be up three to one, they're not. I

0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:53.520
<v Speaker 2>love where the MAVs are at and of course Luca

0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:57.800
<v Speaker 2>is one of the greatest players ever. He's flatly simply

0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:01.440
<v Speaker 2>one of the greatest players ever. Eventually everyone will recognize it.

0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:02.280
<v Speaker 2>All right, what's next?

0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:06.640
<v Speaker 4>Okay Taving for Game four of Warriors Grizzlies. Yep, John

0:08:06.720 --> 0:08:08.360
<v Speaker 4>I missed the next game due to injury.

0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:11.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he said on Twitter that Pool broke the code.

0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:15.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but it didn't seem like Jordan Poole that hurting

0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:16.400
<v Speaker 4>it was intentional.

0:08:16.800 --> 0:08:18.240
<v Speaker 3>Did do you think he did anything wrong here?

0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.320
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't think Jordan Poole did anything wrong. And

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:24.320
<v Speaker 2>I actually don't even think John Morant was that angry

0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:27.080
<v Speaker 2>at Jordan Poole. I think John Morant was angry at

0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:29.680
<v Speaker 2>Steve Kerr for what he said about Dylan Brooks. I

0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:33.400
<v Speaker 2>think Steve Kerr up to the ante on all of

0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:36.959
<v Speaker 2>this by saying Dylan Brooks broke the code, By essentially

0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:41.160
<v Speaker 2>saying Dylan Brooks intentionally hurt. Gary Payton Jr. Went in

0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:43.480
<v Speaker 2>it was a dangerous play, it was a reckless play.

0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:48.239
<v Speaker 2>It was not an intentionally dirty play. That's utter nonsense.

0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:52.520
<v Speaker 2>And so now I watched the replay a thousand times,

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:55.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm not even certain that's where Jah hurt his knee.

0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:58.080
<v Speaker 2>And again, there's a chance Jah is gonna play Game four.

0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 2>You guys are gonna hear and see this after Game

0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:03.120
<v Speaker 2>four as we are recording, it looks like he's not

0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:05.520
<v Speaker 2>gonna play. I'm not even sure that's where he hurt

0:09:05.520 --> 0:09:08.040
<v Speaker 2>his knee, first of all. Second of all, I absolutely

0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:09.960
<v Speaker 2>don't think that was intentional, nor do I think it

0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:10.440
<v Speaker 2>was dirty.

0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:12.640
<v Speaker 4>And when you put things in slow mo like that,

0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:14.760
<v Speaker 4>it can make things look a certain.

0:09:14.559 --> 0:09:19.040
<v Speaker 2>One absolutely right, right the idea that Jordan poole. And

0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:22.400
<v Speaker 2>by the way, even if he was grabbing at his

0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:25.360
<v Speaker 2>leg on purpose, I don't think it would be to

0:09:25.440 --> 0:09:27.240
<v Speaker 2>hurt the guy. I think it would be to regain

0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:30.240
<v Speaker 2>his balance, try to not jaw a balance that's not dirty.

0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:33.480
<v Speaker 2>You want to see dirty in these playoffs, watch Jay

0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:37.880
<v Speaker 2>Crowder on a nightly basis, like what Jay's doing. And so,

0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.600
<v Speaker 2>but I think that we're in a weird spot where

0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:47.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, hard fouls are now flagrant ones, flagrant ones

0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:50.760
<v Speaker 2>are now flagrant twos. Flagrant twos now get you suspended,

0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:54.280
<v Speaker 2>And so I don't think anything that happened with Jordan

0:09:54.360 --> 0:09:57.320
<v Speaker 2>Pool's bad. By the way, I try to not cross

0:09:57.320 --> 0:10:00.440
<v Speaker 2>pollinate the podcast and the TV show. But I had

0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:03.000
<v Speaker 2>such a great take from the TV show I want

0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:04.120
<v Speaker 2>to debut it with you right here.

0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.000
<v Speaker 3>Okay, so let's start.

0:10:06.240 --> 0:10:11.080
<v Speaker 2>So Dylan Brooks got suspended, right, but he kind of

0:10:11.080 --> 0:10:15.040
<v Speaker 2>got suspended for two games because he committed that foul

0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:18.200
<v Speaker 2>and Gary Payton Junior less than three minutes into game one,

0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.440
<v Speaker 2>so he got or game two, he got kicked out

0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:23.840
<v Speaker 2>of that game and then suspended. Here is what I propose,

0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:28.880
<v Speaker 2>and there is context and present for this. In college football,

0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:32.880
<v Speaker 2>if you get a targeting penalty like helmet to helmet intentional,

0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:36.160
<v Speaker 2>you get kicked out of the game. If you get

0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:39.160
<v Speaker 2>that targeting penalty in the second half, you get kicked

0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 2>out of that game and you miss the first half

0:10:41.559 --> 0:10:45.000
<v Speaker 2>of the next game. So I propose that the NBA

0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:49.120
<v Speaker 2>create and it can only be applied after the game,

0:10:49.559 --> 0:10:53.920
<v Speaker 2>a flagrant three, and it is instead of a suspension,

0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:58.400
<v Speaker 2>it is a forty eight minute penalty. So if you

0:10:58.440 --> 0:11:01.079
<v Speaker 2>get because if Dylan Brooks had committed that exact same

0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:04.760
<v Speaker 2>Llungary Payton Junior with two minutes left in game three

0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:07.280
<v Speaker 2>or game two, pardon me, he would have missed those

0:11:07.320 --> 0:11:10.199
<v Speaker 2>two minutes and then the next game instead, he committed

0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:12.920
<v Speaker 2>it two minutes in the game two he misses all.

0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:16.080
<v Speaker 2>So here's how a flagrant three would work. If you

0:11:16.080 --> 0:11:19.240
<v Speaker 2>commit a flagrant two that is harsh enough to be suspended,

0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:21.160
<v Speaker 2>but not harsh enough to where you're like, you know,

0:11:21.240 --> 0:11:23.840
<v Speaker 2>kicked out of the league for ten games something ridiculous.

0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:27.000
<v Speaker 2>You are out for forty eight minutes. So if you

0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:30.200
<v Speaker 2>committed it with six minutes left in the second quarter,

0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:33.480
<v Speaker 2>you are kicked out, and you can come back the

0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.360
<v Speaker 2>following game with six minutes left in the second quarter,

0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:40.160
<v Speaker 2>you are suspended, so enough time to where it is.

0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:42.520
<v Speaker 2>So for Dylan Brooks, he would have been eligible to

0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:45.440
<v Speaker 2>come back in with two minutes and fifty two seconds

0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:48.000
<v Speaker 2>into the first quarter of the next game because that's

0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:50.080
<v Speaker 2>when he committed the penalty. It's like a hockey penalty

0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:52.920
<v Speaker 2>box type of things called a flagrant three. It wouldn't

0:11:52.960 --> 0:11:54.680
<v Speaker 2>be called in the game. It could just be applied

0:11:54.760 --> 0:11:58.840
<v Speaker 2>after the game. It because he deserved a harsher punishment

0:11:58.880 --> 0:12:01.560
<v Speaker 2>than Drama Aymon got a flagrant two, got kicked out,

0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.079
<v Speaker 2>but he did not deserve essentially a two game ban,

0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:07.400
<v Speaker 2>flagrant three forty eight minute penalty. Send it in Adam.

0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:10.840
<v Speaker 4>Solber One don't think he deserved to be suspended for

0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:11.400
<v Speaker 4>any time?

0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:14.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, I would have agreed with you if not. Two

0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:15.760
<v Speaker 2>things change that, and then we move.

0:12:15.640 --> 0:12:17.640
<v Speaker 3>On to one he didn't pick him up or like.

0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:19.199
<v Speaker 2>No, I'm not worried about that. One is the guy

0:12:19.240 --> 0:12:22.760
<v Speaker 2>got hurt, right, and that I think maybe should matter.

0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:26.400
<v Speaker 2>And the other is they set the precedent on flagrant

0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:29.960
<v Speaker 2>to no suspension was Draymond's and you can't say what

0:12:30.040 --> 0:12:32.840
<v Speaker 2>Dylan Brooks and Draymond did are the same severity. So

0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.760
<v Speaker 2>once they overreacted to Draymond's thing, they you know what

0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:37.679
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you almost have to al right, what's.

0:12:37.520 --> 0:12:39.600
<v Speaker 3>That makes sense? The big story of the playoffs so

0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:41.520
<v Speaker 3>far as officiated, it's been terrible.

0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Chris Faull found out in twenty three minutes against

0:12:44.280 --> 0:12:47.080
<v Speaker 4>Dallas on Sunday he can't win a game officiated by

0:12:47.080 --> 0:12:47.720
<v Speaker 4>Scott Foster.

0:12:47.920 --> 0:12:48.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's true.

0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:52.200
<v Speaker 3>The Celtics lost due to a crazy no call. Yeah.

0:12:52.760 --> 0:12:55.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they lost because Tatum was terrible. No, they lost

0:12:55.440 --> 0:12:58.360
<v Speaker 2>because Tatum was terrible. And if they you think Marcus

0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:00.199
<v Speaker 2>Smart's gonna make all three free throws.

0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:01.440
<v Speaker 3>I mean they lost what was it two points?

0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:03.280
<v Speaker 2>They lost? My two. Do you think Marcus Smart's going

0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:04.240
<v Speaker 2>to make all three free throws?

0:13:04.240 --> 0:13:06.240
<v Speaker 3>Because I don't he'll make two.

0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:09.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but they were down three. He's shooting the three.

0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:10.320
<v Speaker 2>He needs to make all three, all right.

0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:10.640
<v Speaker 3>But go ahead.

0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:13.600
<v Speaker 4>But yeah, and there were two huge Jackson's already in

0:13:13.640 --> 0:13:17.400
<v Speaker 4>the Memphis Warriors series. After all these great playoff games,

0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:19.199
<v Speaker 4>how is the conversation about officiating?

0:13:19.520 --> 0:13:23.520
<v Speaker 2>The NBA has got an officiating problem. Yeah, And I

0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:26.240
<v Speaker 2>think it was Miles Brown who suggested this on Twitter,

0:13:26.280 --> 0:13:28.960
<v Speaker 2>and I tend to agree with him. They need to

0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:33.560
<v Speaker 2>recalibrate and air on letting the games get way more physical,

0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:39.280
<v Speaker 2>meaning call it looser than tighter. That way, stars aren't

0:13:39.280 --> 0:13:42.520
<v Speaker 2>in foul trouble. The players can figure out kind of

0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:44.760
<v Speaker 2>how the game is being allowed to be called and

0:13:44.800 --> 0:13:46.520
<v Speaker 2>then move on from there. With that said, for the

0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:50.720
<v Speaker 2>Celtics game, the Marcus Smart thing was close, But they're

0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:54.800
<v Speaker 2>really mad that Yannis keeps bullying them. But Yannis either

0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:57.200
<v Speaker 2>gets fout or commits a foul every play. We've seen

0:13:57.280 --> 0:13:59.720
<v Speaker 2>it with Shaq, we've seen it with Lebron. Part of

0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:02.240
<v Speaker 2>being the biggest, strongest guy on the court and sports

0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.120
<v Speaker 2>is supposed to be an advantage.

0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:06.360
<v Speaker 3>The go ahead fouls are one thing. Goaltending is another.

0:14:06.760 --> 0:14:10.960
<v Speaker 2>They missed a goaltending call, that's fair. They were also

0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:13.400
<v Speaker 2>down by thirteen in the fourth quarter, and Jason Tatum

0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:16.520
<v Speaker 2>try not to be terrible again the Chris Paul thing,

0:14:16.559 --> 0:14:18.280
<v Speaker 2>And we're gonna go a little overtime because we have

0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:22.960
<v Speaker 2>to talk Giannis, but not way overtime. Chris Paul. I

0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:26.440
<v Speaker 2>have no sympathy for him in this spot. First of all,

0:14:26.640 --> 0:14:28.480
<v Speaker 2>let's just go through out. Chris Paul foul out. He

0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:31.680
<v Speaker 2>got three fouls early, goes to the bench. Manti Williams

0:14:31.720 --> 0:14:34.800
<v Speaker 2>then takes a risk with forty five seconds left in

0:14:34.840 --> 0:14:37.480
<v Speaker 2>the second quarter, puts Chris Paul back in the game

0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:40.520
<v Speaker 2>to try to steal a couple of possessions. Yeah, you've

0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:42.280
<v Speaker 2>been in the league fifteen years, you gotta know the

0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:44.240
<v Speaker 2>one thing I can't do is foul. With two seconds

0:14:44.280 --> 0:14:46.800
<v Speaker 2>left in the half, he fights for a rebounds fifty

0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:50.200
<v Speaker 2>to fifty. Call foul. That's foul number four. Then early

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.160
<v Speaker 2>in the second half, Chris Paul did a thing that

0:14:53.200 --> 0:14:57.480
<v Speaker 2>the NBA officially specifically changed the rules on because of

0:14:57.560 --> 0:14:59.520
<v Speaker 2>Chris Paul, which is I'm dribbling the ball up court.

0:14:59.800 --> 0:15:00.080
<v Speaker 3>You.

0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:02.120
<v Speaker 2>You are just trying to run up quart as a defender.

0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:05.120
<v Speaker 2>I swerve in your path and stop, so you run

0:15:05.120 --> 0:15:08.600
<v Speaker 2>into me and I fall down. The NBA changed the

0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:12.280
<v Speaker 2>rule this year to call that an offensive foul. He's

0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:14.000
<v Speaker 2>got to know that. And then the six to one

0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:17.640
<v Speaker 2>he grab dude's arm like I just don't have simp

0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Jalen Brunson's arm. And if anybody should not be able

0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:23.680
<v Speaker 2>to be like ah, I got screwed by a judgment call,

0:15:23.680 --> 0:15:25.840
<v Speaker 2>it's not Chris. Paul has been tricking officials whole Career's

0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:28.560
<v Speaker 2>great butler. Give me a breath, all right, we mentioned Gianis.

0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:30.560
<v Speaker 2>Let's do Yanis quickly because we're a little overtime.

0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:32.560
<v Speaker 4>As much as me and the Celtics would like to

0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:36.280
<v Speaker 4>blame the losses on the officiating, yeah, we gotta admit.

0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:40.080
<v Speaker 4>You know, Jannis has been beating us alone. But you know,

0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:42.320
<v Speaker 4>if if Giannis doesn't take over.

0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:43.240
<v Speaker 3>The Bucks are losing.

0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:45.720
<v Speaker 4>And you always talk about how Lebron is held to

0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:49.000
<v Speaker 4>a super high standard in the playoffs, isn't Gianni's held

0:15:49.000 --> 0:15:51.640
<v Speaker 4>to that same standard, if not higher, well not higher.

0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:54.480
<v Speaker 2>I've never seen an athlete hell do a more unfair

0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:57.080
<v Speaker 2>or higher standard than Lebron. But yeah, Johannis, he'll do

0:15:57.080 --> 0:15:58.760
<v Speaker 2>a crazy I sand best player in the league should

0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:00.920
<v Speaker 2>be I mean, the the fact of the matter is

0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:03.560
<v Speaker 2>Yiannis was like twenty five, ten and eight in the

0:16:03.560 --> 0:16:05.640
<v Speaker 2>first two games. I don't think you played great. When

0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:08.360
<v Speaker 2>you are the best player in the league, you have

0:16:08.400 --> 0:16:13.560
<v Speaker 2>an expectation to be dominant more often than you're very good,

0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:18.200
<v Speaker 2>and to once or twice a playoffs be bat That's

0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:21.120
<v Speaker 2>why Yannis is on a different level than everyone else

0:16:21.200 --> 0:16:25.520
<v Speaker 2>right now. And I've been saying Yiannis won Luca two

0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:29.440
<v Speaker 2>folks killed me for it. I'm yet to see Luca

0:16:30.040 --> 0:16:32.200
<v Speaker 2>one game, much less multiple games like we saw Kadie.

0:16:32.600 --> 0:16:35.120
<v Speaker 2>You see Luca one game less, much less multiple games

0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:37.520
<v Speaker 2>like Chris Paul has had or Jason Tatum has had.

0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:40.320
<v Speaker 2>But Joel Embiid's been very good in these playoffs and

0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:43.680
<v Speaker 2>he got hurt. I think that's gonna age really well.

0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:48.840
<v Speaker 2>But the I think we're gonna we have a bet

0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:51.440
<v Speaker 2>on Buck Celtics. It's not looking good for you now.

0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:54.560
<v Speaker 2>By the time people see this, maybe the Celtics will

0:16:54.560 --> 0:16:57.600
<v Speaker 2>have won Game four prediction for something that will have

0:16:57.600 --> 0:17:00.840
<v Speaker 2>already happened. I think Tonight is the night, meaning yesterday

0:17:00.840 --> 0:17:04.160
<v Speaker 2>when you guys hear this game, four is the night

0:17:04.200 --> 0:17:07.159
<v Speaker 2>the box go crazy from three. The Bucks are up

0:17:07.160 --> 0:17:10.480
<v Speaker 2>in this series and they're shooting twenty eight percent from three.

0:17:10.600 --> 0:17:13.080
<v Speaker 2>That is bad news for Boston. When you guys are

0:17:13.119 --> 0:17:15.760
<v Speaker 2>hearing or seeing this, I think it's three to one Milwaukee.

0:17:15.960 --> 0:17:17.960
<v Speaker 2>It's a risky thing for me to do because I'm

0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:20.240
<v Speaker 2>saying this before a game that will have actually already

0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:21.720
<v Speaker 2>happened by the time you guys hear and see this

0:17:22.000 --> 0:17:24.240
<v Speaker 2>or all look like a genius. Bucks hit at least

<v Speaker 5>kind of Homy watch Unstoppable, now exclusively on Amazon Prime Video.

0:18:06.280 --> 0:18:14.960
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe the arrogance of these alleged journalists that

0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:19.199
<v Speaker 2>cover the Nuggets, who might as well just have Yo

0:18:19.320 --> 0:18:23.280
<v Speaker 2>Kicch tattoos, who are trying to take a victory lap

0:18:23.640 --> 0:18:27.680
<v Speaker 2>about their MVP who got washed in Round one.

0:18:28.080 --> 0:18:29.959
<v Speaker 4>Wait and you were you were saying in a segment

0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:33.000
<v Speaker 4>that the postseason stuff doesn't matter.

0:18:33.040 --> 0:18:38.920
<v Speaker 2>What it's just, it's just a regular season award.

0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:41.679
<v Speaker 4>If like the postseason I know you're honest. Is like,

0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:43.720
<v Speaker 4>you know, he's carrying, he's beating the Celtics and stuff.

0:18:43.760 --> 0:18:47.400
<v Speaker 2>But I feel like when you see what the correlations,

0:18:47.400 --> 0:18:49.399
<v Speaker 2>when you see what they look like with them or

0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:54.280
<v Speaker 2>without them, of course, but it's just this and this

0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:58.040
<v Speaker 2>guy says, you notice how silent Nick Right was when

0:18:58.119 --> 0:19:01.080
<v Speaker 2>Yo Kicch was balling on Games four and five. I

0:19:01.119 --> 0:19:05.359
<v Speaker 2>have a goddamn two hour television show every day, I

0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:09.960
<v Speaker 2>do a podcast twice. I'm never silent about anything. Just

0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:14.879
<v Speaker 2>here's the thing, folks, And I'm gonna sound real arrogant here. Okay,

0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:21.560
<v Speaker 2>folks whose entire platform is Twitter, don't understand that people

0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:25.200
<v Speaker 2>with an actual platform might be saying things about something

0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:31.280
<v Speaker 2>without tweeting about Oh, tweets from Game four? No, just

0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:36.959
<v Speaker 2>two hours on TV about it? You ready go love that?

0:19:37.119 --> 0:19:37.439
<v Speaker 3>All right?

0:19:37.520 --> 0:19:41.240
<v Speaker 2>Welcome back in Welcome Nick Wright podcast. We are an episode.

0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:45.840
<v Speaker 2>This is unbelievable that we are an episode. I'm seventeen already,

0:19:46.119 --> 0:19:48.080
<v Speaker 2>Demond's a it's a B block. What are we starting with?

0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:50.560
<v Speaker 4>Hard net is best game as a seventy six are

0:19:50.560 --> 0:19:53.680
<v Speaker 4>on Sunday? Yeah, since Embeat has come back, Philly hasn't

0:19:53.680 --> 0:19:54.240
<v Speaker 4>lost a game.

0:19:55.119 --> 0:19:57.520
<v Speaker 3>It's with Sunday. What we should expect from Harden and

0:19:57.560 --> 0:20:00.159
<v Speaker 3>Beat or was this all just a mirage?

0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:03.159
<v Speaker 2>It's not what you can expect from Harden and the

0:20:03.400 --> 0:20:07.080
<v Speaker 2>thirty one, seven and nine. He might put up those

0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:09.840
<v Speaker 2>similar numbers again, but the way he did it. So

0:20:10.320 --> 0:20:12.800
<v Speaker 2>I tweeted this in real time, but that I said,

0:20:12.960 --> 0:20:16.720
<v Speaker 2>I think this might be one of the best playoff

0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:20.560
<v Speaker 2>fourth quarters of Harden's career. And then we checked this

0:20:20.640 --> 0:20:24.680
<v Speaker 2>morning for the TV show and this was sixteen to

0:20:24.680 --> 0:20:27.760
<v Speaker 2>the fourth was literally the most points Harden has ever

0:20:27.800 --> 0:20:30.520
<v Speaker 2>scored in a playoff fourth quarter in a close win.

0:20:31.040 --> 0:20:34.639
<v Speaker 2>He scored seventeen once in a blowout, but this was

0:20:34.720 --> 0:20:38.639
<v Speaker 2>so it was the best fourth quarter because even vintage Harden,

0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:42.639
<v Speaker 2>great James Harden struggled in the playoffs and the fourth

0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:45.639
<v Speaker 2>quarter in close games. So you can't expect him to

0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:48.280
<v Speaker 2>be this dominant as he was in the fourth quarter yesterday,

0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:50.880
<v Speaker 2>but you should be able to expect him to occasionally

0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:54.639
<v Speaker 2>pop for thirty points, but more importantly, even if they don't.

0:20:55.040 --> 0:20:57.600
<v Speaker 2>And the reason I felt so strongly about Philly in

0:20:57.640 --> 0:21:02.399
<v Speaker 2>this series was Miami has no answer for Mbi and

0:21:02.680 --> 0:21:05.880
<v Speaker 2>Embiid was at sixty percent in Game three in Philly one.

0:21:06.160 --> 0:21:08.520
<v Speaker 2>He was probably seventy five percent in Game four, and

0:21:08.600 --> 0:21:11.240
<v Speaker 2>Philly won. I don't think Philly's gonna lose again this series.

0:21:11.640 --> 0:21:14.040
<v Speaker 2>I think that Philly is in a spot right now

0:21:14.240 --> 0:21:17.680
<v Speaker 2>where there's no answer for Embiid. He causes so much

0:21:17.760 --> 0:21:21.320
<v Speaker 2>pressure because Miami is a great defensive team, but they're short.

0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:23.200
<v Speaker 3>Bam is awesome, but.

0:21:23.200 --> 0:21:26.680
<v Speaker 2>Bam is six ' eight Embiid seven to one, he's

0:21:26.760 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 2>got to be close to three hundred pounds, and he's

0:21:29.440 --> 0:21:33.800
<v Speaker 2>just so physically dominant that I think this is a

0:21:33.800 --> 0:21:38.359
<v Speaker 2>bad matchup for Miami. I I have a real shot

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:42.320
<v Speaker 2>to be undefeated through two rounds of the playoffs. As

0:21:42.359 --> 0:21:45.600
<v Speaker 2>far as series predictions I have for this round, I

0:21:45.600 --> 0:21:49.879
<v Speaker 2>have I have the Bucks, Sixers, MAVs, and I have

0:21:49.880 --> 0:21:52.440
<v Speaker 2>the Grizzlies. The Grizzlies one is on life support with

0:21:52.600 --> 0:21:56.320
<v Speaker 2>Joab being injured, but so maybe three out of four.

0:21:56.359 --> 0:21:57.879
<v Speaker 2>But if Joss hurt, then I feel like I'm off

0:21:57.920 --> 0:21:59.600
<v Speaker 2>the hook, right if you have best player that's hurt.

0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:02.640
<v Speaker 2>But I didn't even back down on the Philly thing

0:22:03.240 --> 0:22:05.479
<v Speaker 2>when we found that Embid was missing the first two games,

0:22:05.680 --> 0:22:07.600
<v Speaker 2>I said the same thing that I said about Luke

0:22:07.640 --> 0:22:09.680
<v Speaker 2>in round one. If Embiid's back by game three, I

0:22:09.720 --> 0:22:12.200
<v Speaker 2>think they can win. I don't think Miami has an answer.

0:22:12.480 --> 0:22:15.679
<v Speaker 2>One other weird thing to watch with the Heat. Duncan

0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:19.800
<v Speaker 2>Robinson signed a five year, ninety million dollars deal a

0:22:19.880 --> 0:22:24.520
<v Speaker 2>year ago. Duncan Robinson made eight three pointers in the

0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:26.360
<v Speaker 2>first game of the playoffs.

0:22:26.800 --> 0:22:28.520
<v Speaker 3>He's played what a minute?

0:22:28.720 --> 0:22:33.200
<v Speaker 2>He's played one minute, and he's not hurt. Since Game

0:22:33.240 --> 0:22:35.840
<v Speaker 2>one of the playoffs, he has played a total The

0:22:35.880 --> 0:22:38.479
<v Speaker 2>Heat have played eight games. He has played a total

0:22:38.480 --> 0:22:41.760
<v Speaker 2>of forty four minutes. Now, I understand he's a defensive liability,

0:22:42.240 --> 0:22:45.120
<v Speaker 2>but you you're supposed to be a great defensive team,

0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:46.880
<v Speaker 2>and you are you need to be able to have

0:22:47.000 --> 0:22:50.200
<v Speaker 2>a defensive liability out there when they're like fourteen of

0:22:50.440 --> 0:22:53.000
<v Speaker 2>fifty from three in the last two games, when he

0:22:53.040 --> 0:22:56.679
<v Speaker 2>can shoot like that, Duncan Robinson being thrown to the bench,

0:22:57.000 --> 0:22:58.960
<v Speaker 2>glued to the bench, I should say, when he's an

0:22:59.000 --> 0:23:02.120
<v Speaker 2>eighteen million year for the next three years is baffling

0:23:02.160 --> 0:23:03.120
<v Speaker 2>to me. All Right, what's next?

0:23:03.160 --> 0:23:04.960
<v Speaker 3>They need you in the they need you in the move.

0:23:05.200 --> 0:23:07.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, well yeah, a lot of these teams do. But

0:23:07.080 --> 0:23:08.800
<v Speaker 2>the Heat are well coached. I just don't get it,

0:23:08.840 --> 0:23:11.160
<v Speaker 2>all right, what's you know? Who? We did see yesterday though,

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:14.160
<v Speaker 2>real quick for the first time in forever, Markeith Morris.

0:23:14.320 --> 0:23:16.360
<v Speaker 2>He made an appearance for the Heat, which was good

0:23:16.400 --> 0:23:18.600
<v Speaker 2>for him because he did have to miss fifty games

0:23:18.600 --> 0:23:20.919
<v Speaker 2>this year because the back to back MVP shoved him

0:23:20.920 --> 0:23:22.959
<v Speaker 2>in the back when he wasn't looking and he got whiplashed.

0:23:23.000 --> 0:23:25.560
<v Speaker 3>But nobody wants to talk about that on himself. We're

0:23:25.600 --> 0:23:26.040
<v Speaker 3>not about this.

0:23:26.200 --> 0:23:28.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm not a big mor Swins fan. He didn't get

0:23:28.119 --> 0:23:29.919
<v Speaker 2>shoved in the back while he wasn't looking, all right,

0:23:29.960 --> 0:23:30.440
<v Speaker 2>what's next?

0:23:30.520 --> 0:23:31.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:23:31.400 --> 0:23:33.760
<v Speaker 4>A few weeks ago on Twitter, you jokingly put out

0:23:33.800 --> 0:23:35.600
<v Speaker 4>a tweet for US for Kyrie.

0:23:35.720 --> 0:23:36.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:23:36.280 --> 0:23:39.600
<v Speaker 4>Well, you know, strangely enough, when Kyrie had the whole

0:23:39.640 --> 0:23:42.480
<v Speaker 4>COVID thing going on, so there were rumors of Kyrie

0:23:42.480 --> 0:23:43.400
<v Speaker 4>being traded for US.

0:23:43.480 --> 0:23:44.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:23:44.119 --> 0:23:46.160
<v Speaker 4>So what do you think the chances that Lebron ever

0:23:46.160 --> 0:23:47.240
<v Speaker 4>gets his old teammate back.

0:23:48.520 --> 0:23:51.160
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I don't think Kyrie and Lebron are teaming up again.

0:23:51.240 --> 0:23:53.840
<v Speaker 2>I think that it would be great for both parties.

0:23:54.400 --> 0:23:58.040
<v Speaker 2>I think that Kyrie listen. Kyrie in his career, in

0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:03.600
<v Speaker 2>his career, has played nine games in the playoffs after

0:24:03.680 --> 0:24:08.120
<v Speaker 2>Round one without Lebron alongside. He has played zero Conference

0:24:08.160 --> 0:24:11.560
<v Speaker 2>finals games without Lebron alongside him, zero NBA Finals game

0:24:11.640 --> 0:24:15.280
<v Speaker 2>without Lebron alongside him. Now, Kyrie's out here talking about

0:24:15.320 --> 0:24:17.919
<v Speaker 2>a four year dynasty in Brooklyn. I think it'd be

0:24:17.920 --> 0:24:20.440
<v Speaker 2>better if they could put together four good weeks of basketball.

0:24:21.000 --> 0:24:26.920
<v Speaker 2>But the problem with Kyrie and KD is neither one

0:24:26.960 --> 0:24:30.200
<v Speaker 2>of being your two best players. You need somebody who

0:24:30.240 --> 0:24:33.359
<v Speaker 2>knows how to lead a group of men, which in

0:24:33.440 --> 0:24:36.639
<v Speaker 2>sports matters. And Kyrie and Katie, for how brilliant they are,

0:24:36.720 --> 0:24:38.919
<v Speaker 2>is how brilliant Katie is a player, and how brilliant

0:24:39.000 --> 0:24:40.919
<v Speaker 2>Kyrie is as an offensive player when he can be

0:24:40.960 --> 0:24:45.479
<v Speaker 2>bothered to play. They've never been leaders. But yeah, I listen,

0:24:46.640 --> 0:24:50.719
<v Speaker 2>the folks will at some point recognize that I know

0:24:50.800 --> 0:24:53.680
<v Speaker 2>what the hell I'm talking about that I of course

0:24:53.720 --> 0:24:56.760
<v Speaker 2>the Nets were shopping Kyrie, and of course Kyrie threatened

0:24:56.800 --> 0:24:59.000
<v Speaker 2>to retire if he was traded. Like I said, all

0:24:59.000 --> 0:25:01.680
<v Speaker 2>of this a long time ago, and of course there

0:25:01.840 --> 0:25:05.880
<v Speaker 2>was There weren't a lot of teams that would are

0:25:05.920 --> 0:25:09.159
<v Speaker 2>that interested in Kyrie with everything that goes along with him.

0:25:09.359 --> 0:25:11.480
<v Speaker 2>The Lakers would be one of them. He had shooting,

0:25:11.960 --> 0:25:14.520
<v Speaker 2>Lebron has won with him. So yeah, I mean, if

0:25:14.520 --> 0:25:16.640
<v Speaker 2>the question is do I want to take a victory lap?

0:25:17.040 --> 0:25:17.880
<v Speaker 3>I am.

0:25:18.640 --> 0:25:21.879
<v Speaker 2>I am honestly a little exhausted, and I have a

0:25:21.960 --> 0:25:24.800
<v Speaker 2>side stitch from all the victory laps I'm having to

0:25:24.840 --> 0:25:28.320
<v Speaker 2>take recently. I mean, just nailed the Nets, I'm nailing

0:25:28.359 --> 0:25:31.800
<v Speaker 2>the Suns and the MAVs. I nailed Buck Celtics, like

0:25:31.840 --> 0:25:33.920
<v Speaker 2>a lot of victory laps. But okay, we can keep going,

0:25:34.000 --> 0:25:36.000
<v Speaker 2>or we're gonna play a game now. This or that

0:25:36.600 --> 0:25:39.200
<v Speaker 2>can make me more obnoxious than that, we'll find out.

0:25:39.280 --> 0:25:41.800
<v Speaker 4>Go ahead, it is time for this or that, which

0:25:41.840 --> 0:25:45.200
<v Speaker 4>fan base should be more upset Seahawks fans hearing Pete

0:25:45.200 --> 0:25:48.879
<v Speaker 4>Carroll kpe up for Drew Locke, or Raiders fans watching

0:25:48.920 --> 0:25:50.040
<v Speaker 4>Tom Brady admit.

0:25:49.840 --> 0:25:51.360
<v Speaker 3>He fumbled in the Tuck Rule game.

0:25:51.520 --> 0:25:54.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh, the answers, Seahawks fans. Everybody knew Tom Brady fumbled

0:25:54.800 --> 0:25:57.439
<v Speaker 2>in the Tuck Rule game. And listen, Tom Brady, I

0:25:57.480 --> 0:26:00.880
<v Speaker 2>get it. You know, he had gone third six hours

0:26:00.920 --> 0:26:03.000
<v Speaker 2>without being a topic on talk shows, and he was like,

0:26:03.040 --> 0:26:04.600
<v Speaker 2>I need to get my name back in the news

0:26:04.600 --> 0:26:08.000
<v Speaker 2>cycle here. So he did some TikTok trend with Justin Bieber.

0:26:08.400 --> 0:26:12.520
<v Speaker 2>But Pete Carroll acting like Drew Lock is anything other

0:26:12.560 --> 0:26:15.960
<v Speaker 2>than one of the very worst quarterbacks in football is

0:26:16.200 --> 0:26:20.359
<v Speaker 2>just a disaster. Why they haven't bit the bullet and

0:26:20.400 --> 0:26:24.080
<v Speaker 2>traded for Baker Mayfield, I don't understand. Unless the answer

0:26:24.119 --> 0:26:25.919
<v Speaker 2>is because they want to be terrible. If it's that

0:26:26.040 --> 0:26:27.639
<v Speaker 2>they want to be terrible and try to get the

0:26:27.720 --> 0:26:28.520
<v Speaker 2>number one pick.

0:26:28.400 --> 0:26:29.520
<v Speaker 3>So be it, okay.

0:26:29.640 --> 0:26:35.200
<v Speaker 2>But if they think they can actually compete with Drew Lock,

0:26:35.760 --> 0:26:36.760
<v Speaker 2>they got another thing coming.

0:26:37.119 --> 0:26:39.440
<v Speaker 3>All right. Baker Mayfield situation is what right now?

0:26:39.520 --> 0:26:42.600
<v Speaker 2>Is he just no, they haven't released him, they haven't

0:26:42.600 --> 0:26:45.000
<v Speaker 2>traded him. He's still on the Browns. I think the

0:26:45.000 --> 0:26:49.360
<v Speaker 2>Browns might be quietly a little concerned about Wait, how

0:26:49.400 --> 0:26:52.320
<v Speaker 2>long is Deshaun Watson going to be suspended? Is it

0:26:52.359 --> 0:26:56.040
<v Speaker 2>possible he's suspended the whole year and we need a quarterback?

0:26:56.359 --> 0:26:58.280
<v Speaker 3>That makes sense, But that's.

0:26:57.920 --> 0:26:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Not what they're saying. What they're saying is they're going

0:26:59.560 --> 0:27:01.080
<v Speaker 2>to move on from him, just nobody wants to pay

0:27:01.119 --> 0:27:02.760
<v Speaker 2>him the eighteen million. All right, what's next?

0:27:02.840 --> 0:27:07.000
<v Speaker 4>Odell went to the Sun's game in a Booker jersey. Yeah,

0:27:07.040 --> 0:27:11.080
<v Speaker 4>which NFC contender should sign him, Arizona or Dallas?

0:27:11.200 --> 0:27:11.520
<v Speaker 3>All right?

0:27:11.560 --> 0:27:13.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if we have a picture of what

0:27:13.840 --> 0:27:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Odell was wearing. And I know this isn't the answer

0:27:17.480 --> 0:27:20.719
<v Speaker 2>or the question, but the Dallas isn't going to sign him.

0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:23.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they have the money. Arizona has spent

0:27:23.119 --> 0:27:25.000
<v Speaker 2>so much on white They just made a first round

0:27:25.000 --> 0:27:29.320
<v Speaker 2>for Hollywood Brown DeAndre Hopkins only going to miss six weeks.

0:27:29.400 --> 0:27:32.159
<v Speaker 2>They've spent they have wide receivers, not what they need

0:27:32.200 --> 0:27:35.080
<v Speaker 2>in Arizona. So I don't think either. My answer to

0:27:35.119 --> 0:27:38.919
<v Speaker 2>that is neither. But I do. Odell's my buddy. I

0:27:39.080 --> 0:27:42.120
<v Speaker 2>like him once point a time of his company, No,

0:27:42.200 --> 0:27:45.760
<v Speaker 2>not his company. No, no, no, that's in the post

0:27:45.800 --> 0:27:49.840
<v Speaker 2>show pod with de Monse. Odell once pon a time

0:27:50.240 --> 0:27:53.119
<v Speaker 2>when you had hair similar to what he had, he

0:27:53.240 --> 0:27:56.120
<v Speaker 2>facetimed you and told you what to do to keep

0:27:56.160 --> 0:28:01.160
<v Speaker 2>it nice, like what products put in there? I like Odell.

0:28:01.320 --> 0:28:04.000
<v Speaker 2>I can't say Tom Brady was like thirty six hours

0:28:04.000 --> 0:28:09.080
<v Speaker 2>without getting attention without mentioning that Odell Beckham Junior wearing

0:28:09.440 --> 0:28:13.960
<v Speaker 2>what he wore to that Sun's game, sitting where he sat.

0:28:14.280 --> 0:28:18.000
<v Speaker 2>It's a little little attention start. Don't put this on

0:28:18.040 --> 0:28:21.160
<v Speaker 2>social guys. This is a podcast exclusive for people who

0:28:21.160 --> 0:28:25.080
<v Speaker 2>are watching and listening. But Odell Odell wearing the jersey

0:28:25.240 --> 0:28:28.679
<v Speaker 2>and the shorts and the like multi colored jewelry.

0:28:30.000 --> 0:28:31.159
<v Speaker 3>This is the same game where we have the do

0:28:31.280 --> 0:28:34.680
<v Speaker 3>rag one right he just listen.

0:28:35.240 --> 0:28:40.040
<v Speaker 2>There are certain folks that really really need in every

0:28:40.120 --> 0:28:43.320
<v Speaker 2>instance to be the center of attention, even when they

0:28:43.360 --> 0:28:46.920
<v Speaker 2>are literally not the center of attention, and listen. I

0:28:47.440 --> 0:28:49.080
<v Speaker 2>have a little bit of that in me, you know,

0:28:49.440 --> 0:28:51.200
<v Speaker 2>I talk into a camera and on my phone for

0:28:51.200 --> 0:28:54.240
<v Speaker 2>a living. I get it. But it was I didn't

0:28:54.280 --> 0:28:57.800
<v Speaker 2>think it was the best look imaginable. I thought it

0:28:57.920 --> 0:29:00.880
<v Speaker 2>was a better court side look than Ben Simmons court

0:29:00.960 --> 0:29:03.719
<v Speaker 2>side outfits when he wasn't playing, but not much. All right,

0:29:03.760 --> 0:29:04.320
<v Speaker 2>what's last?

0:29:04.880 --> 0:29:09.040
<v Speaker 3>What's worse? Michelson losing forty million dollars on gambling over

0:29:09.120 --> 0:29:13.600
<v Speaker 3>four years. Yeah, or my breath? Okay, well your breath

0:29:13.640 --> 0:29:14.200
<v Speaker 3>on the plane?

0:29:14.280 --> 0:29:16.959
<v Speaker 2>On the plane, So can we show Demonse's tweet. Demanse

0:29:17.120 --> 0:29:20.600
<v Speaker 2>took a trip to California this weekend and sent out

0:29:20.600 --> 0:29:23.040
<v Speaker 2>what I thought was a very funny tweet. Dude, I'm

0:29:23.040 --> 0:29:25.040
<v Speaker 2>sitting next on the plane. Gave me a piece of gum.

0:29:25.200 --> 0:29:26.880
<v Speaker 2>I started eating the piece he gave me, and then

0:29:26.920 --> 0:29:29.840
<v Speaker 2>he slid another one my way. He speaks no English,

0:29:29.880 --> 0:29:33.320
<v Speaker 2>which made it even funnier. Breath must be mollow, and

0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:36.080
<v Speaker 2>then a bunch of laughing emojis. First of all, props,

0:29:36.360 --> 0:29:38.360
<v Speaker 2>I think that might be the first time you've ever

0:29:39.040 --> 0:29:42.240
<v Speaker 2>properly used a Spanish term. I'll give you a fist bump.

0:29:42.400 --> 0:29:44.760
<v Speaker 2>That's my fault, you know what. Hold on, let's have it.

0:29:44.840 --> 0:29:47.000
<v Speaker 2>Let's have a parenting moment, you and me, because I

0:29:47.000 --> 0:29:49.280
<v Speaker 2>can talk about a regret. We're gonna go just one

0:29:49.280 --> 0:29:52.000
<v Speaker 2>minute overtime here. We maybe need to adjust the clocks.

0:29:52.040 --> 0:29:54.440
<v Speaker 2>By the way, we're at seventeen episodes, and I think

0:29:54.480 --> 0:29:56.600
<v Speaker 2>we need to adjust the clocks to twelve minutes twelve minutes,

0:29:56.640 --> 0:29:58.600
<v Speaker 2>since we've literally never hit him except for once.

0:29:58.640 --> 0:29:59.960
<v Speaker 3>He's about to get somebody fired.

0:30:00.280 --> 0:30:04.000
<v Speaker 2>No, I'm not getting anybody fired. I blame myself for

0:30:04.080 --> 0:30:10.360
<v Speaker 2>Demand's lack of a second language, because is I'm not

0:30:10.480 --> 0:30:15.200
<v Speaker 2>proud of this. I once helped you cheat on a

0:30:15.400 --> 0:30:18.800
<v Speaker 2>take home Spanish test. Do you remember you had like

0:30:19.080 --> 0:30:21.720
<v Speaker 2>answer into a camera and I was holding up a

0:30:21.840 --> 0:30:24.200
<v Speaker 2>camera with the words you needed to be able to

0:30:24.240 --> 0:30:27.840
<v Speaker 2>say because I so badly wanted you to pass. Yeah,

0:30:27.840 --> 0:30:31.120
<v Speaker 2>And then despite that, you didn't pass, and you were

0:30:31.120 --> 0:30:33.320
<v Speaker 2>going to be ineligible for basketball that semester.

0:30:33.400 --> 0:30:35.720
<v Speaker 3>And then we doubled down, and then I went to the.

0:30:35.960 --> 0:30:39.280
<v Speaker 2>I went to the school and like begged the teacher

0:30:39.760 --> 0:30:42.280
<v Speaker 2>to up his grade to make him eligible for the

0:30:42.320 --> 0:30:44.600
<v Speaker 2>basketball team. And she did.

0:30:45.640 --> 0:30:48.040
<v Speaker 3>It was like five point five needed to be like

0:30:48.160 --> 0:30:48.920
<v Speaker 3>she needed to give me.

0:30:48.880 --> 0:30:51.200
<v Speaker 2>Like yeah, yeah, but it was It's not like you

0:30:51.280 --> 0:30:53.640
<v Speaker 2>needed like point five to get an a lead, a

0:30:53.720 --> 0:30:57.680
<v Speaker 2>point five to pass and so and I look back

0:30:57.720 --> 0:31:00.000
<v Speaker 2>and I'm like, ah, maybe if he had just you know,

0:31:00.080 --> 0:31:02.680
<v Speaker 2>all suffer the pain of being ineligible that semestery, he

0:31:02.720 --> 0:31:04.760
<v Speaker 2>would have actually learned some Spanish. But you know what,

0:31:04.920 --> 0:31:07.400
<v Speaker 2>we live and we learn, and that's the curse of

0:31:07.440 --> 0:31:10.520
<v Speaker 2>being the oldest is we make mistakes with you and

0:31:10.560 --> 0:31:14.080
<v Speaker 2>then we don't make him with the with the girls. Uh.

0:31:14.640 --> 0:31:17.560
<v Speaker 3>But the point.

0:31:17.320 --> 0:31:23.600
<v Speaker 2>Of this was talk about Demanse's breath. Demse Demanse has

0:31:23.920 --> 0:31:27.720
<v Speaker 2>amazing hydiate, the best hygiene of like any young man

0:31:27.760 --> 0:31:31.200
<v Speaker 2>I've ever met, used to like refuse to go to

0:31:31.320 --> 0:31:34.040
<v Speaker 2>dinner after basketball games. We go to your game and

0:31:34.080 --> 0:31:36.000
<v Speaker 2>then want to go to dinner as a family, Like, no,

0:31:36.040 --> 0:31:38.880
<v Speaker 2>I feel disgusting. I need to shower. It's gross. I'm like,

0:31:38.920 --> 0:31:40.120
<v Speaker 2>can you just sit at dinner? No?

0:31:41.200 --> 0:31:41.640
<v Speaker 3>All of that.

0:31:42.200 --> 0:31:49.160
<v Speaker 2>With that said, when Demanse has bad breath, you think

0:31:49.680 --> 0:31:54.280
<v Speaker 2>he's dying. No, for real, you really think like, oh

0:31:54.320 --> 0:32:00.400
<v Speaker 2>my god, like do you have do you have a diase?

0:32:01.120 --> 0:32:04.960
<v Speaker 2>Is something is that is? Is there something rotten somewhere?

0:32:05.240 --> 0:32:07.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what the issue is. So you're not

0:32:07.400 --> 0:32:09.880
<v Speaker 2>a bad breath guy, but when it is you had

0:32:09.920 --> 0:32:12.760
<v Speaker 2>an early morning flight, my guess is you were hustling

0:32:12.760 --> 0:32:13.320
<v Speaker 2>out of the house.

0:32:13.440 --> 0:32:16.120
<v Speaker 3>I definitely brush well, you didn't brush him far.

0:32:16.240 --> 0:32:18.520
<v Speaker 4>Noough, I had a really bad obelet at the sports

0:32:18.520 --> 0:32:19.240
<v Speaker 4>bar at the airport.

0:32:19.320 --> 0:32:22.680
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So whatever it was, I'm telling you, I know

0:32:22.800 --> 0:32:25.160
<v Speaker 2>that poor gentleman sitting next to you was like, this

0:32:25.200 --> 0:32:28.800
<v Speaker 2>is a six hour flight and he's going to burn

0:32:28.880 --> 0:32:32.640
<v Speaker 2>through my man Like it's so I feel for that guy.

0:32:32.640 --> 0:32:35.840
<v Speaker 2>As far as Mickelson, word on the street is that

0:32:35.960 --> 0:32:40.080
<v Speaker 2>forty million dollar and gambling losses over four years is waylow.

0:32:41.120 --> 0:32:41.880
<v Speaker 3>It's way lower.

0:32:42.080 --> 0:32:45.640
<v Speaker 2>What No, forty million is lower than what.

0:32:45.640 --> 0:32:46.400
<v Speaker 3>It actually is.

0:32:46.560 --> 0:32:51.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh, that word on the street is that Phil Cheese,

0:32:51.800 --> 0:32:55.560
<v Speaker 2>what big, big time problem gambling? That's just the word.

0:32:56.120 --> 0:32:59.320
<v Speaker 2>There might even be an all time great gambler that's

0:32:59.360 --> 0:33:01.840
<v Speaker 2>in jail now maybe the greatest sports game or whatever.

0:33:01.960 --> 0:33:04.880
<v Speaker 2>Just google Phil Micholson Billy Walters and then figure out

0:33:04.880 --> 0:33:08.440
<v Speaker 2>if wait, was Phil placing some of Billy's bets for

0:33:08.560 --> 0:33:10.200
<v Speaker 2>him so he could get a lot of money down

0:33:10.280 --> 0:33:13.479
<v Speaker 2>And if he was, those are winning bets usually, so

0:33:13.560 --> 0:33:16.120
<v Speaker 2>if you are, if you win bets for someone else,

0:33:16.160 --> 0:33:19.000
<v Speaker 2>they get that money. So if that forty million was it,

0:33:19.000 --> 0:33:21.760
<v Speaker 2>maybe more than that possibly And now and you know

0:33:22.040 --> 0:33:24.680
<v Speaker 2>too long didn't read version is wait, why is Phil

0:33:24.720 --> 0:33:27.800
<v Speaker 2>Micholson teaming up with Saudi Arabia in a golf league.

0:33:27.920 --> 0:33:30.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's what, because they might need the cash. We'll

0:33:30.920 --> 0:33:39.080
<v Speaker 2>be right back. Welcome back. In last segment, What's Right

<v Speaker 2>I am you are lying.

0:33:50.280 --> 0:33:51.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. I just figured you'd give it a benefit of

0:33:51.800 --> 0:33:52.200
<v Speaker 3>the doubt.

0:33:52.440 --> 0:33:55.600

0:34:04.960 --> 0:34:08.080
<v Speaker 2>remember a little backup? Do you remember four years ago

0:34:08.120 --> 0:34:11.319
<v Speaker 2>when me and Bamani drove to Boston on Mother's Day?

0:34:13.680 --> 0:34:14.480

<v Speaker 2>You were none of those four years ago. You were

0:34:19.880 --> 0:34:24.399
<v Speaker 2>in California. No. So Mother's Day twenty eighteen, Game one

0:34:24.480 --> 0:34:29.560
<v Speaker 2>Eastern Conference Finals Celtics Cavs. Bamani and I drove to

0:34:29.719 --> 0:34:33.239
<v Speaker 2>Boston on Mother's Day to watch that game and then

0:34:33.320 --> 0:34:35.120
<v Speaker 2>drove back that day. I missed the whole Bay.

0:34:34.920 --> 0:34:37.600
<v Speaker 3>And still came back the same day.

0:34:37.760 --> 0:34:40.960
<v Speaker 2>And it was the only game that entire playoff run.

0:34:41.080 --> 0:34:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Lebron was bad and I just got heckled by Celtics

0:34:44.239 --> 0:34:47.839
<v Speaker 2>fans the whole time. It was not an enjoyable experience,

0:34:48.200 --> 0:34:50.880
<v Speaker 2>and none of it was good, none of it was worthwhile,

0:34:51.160 --> 0:34:55.000
<v Speaker 2>and it cost me with your mom, But your mom

0:34:55.280 --> 0:35:00.600

<v Speaker 2>had tickets waiting for me for the Sixers game, and

0:35:16.800 --> 0:35:19.680
<v Speaker 2>I found great tickets for the MAVs game. And my

0:35:19.800 --> 0:35:24.200
<v Speaker 2>plan was I was going to early Sunday morning, fly

0:35:24.840 --> 0:35:28.239
<v Speaker 2>fly to Dallas for the game. The moment the game

0:35:28.320 --> 0:35:33.640
<v Speaker 2>was over, fly to Philly, get there about mid second quarter,

0:35:35.120 --> 0:35:36.920
<v Speaker 2>and then watch the end of that game, and then

0:35:37.000 --> 0:35:44.040
<v Speaker 2>drive back here. And then I realized that it was

0:35:44.080 --> 0:35:46.000
<v Speaker 2>going to be amazing. It's just going to be his

0:35:46.120 --> 0:35:49.480
<v Speaker 2>epic day, and it was going to be expensive. But

0:35:49.560 --> 0:35:53.840
<v Speaker 2>I have gotten so many speaking of bizarro film wicals

0:35:53.840 --> 0:35:56.439
<v Speaker 2>and so many bets right in these playoffs. I've got

0:35:56.640 --> 0:36:00.319
<v Speaker 2>money to spend on these playoff games. And then like

0:36:00.480 --> 0:36:03.480
<v Speaker 2>literally Saturday night, you know who reached out to me,

0:36:04.719 --> 0:36:08.239
<v Speaker 2>my sister, and she was like, so what are we doing? Like,

0:36:08.280 --> 0:36:10.440
<v Speaker 2>are you coming over for Mom's thing tomorrow? I'm like,

0:36:10.480 --> 0:36:16.239
<v Speaker 2>oh my mom. I'm like, oh my mom for Mother's Day.

0:36:16.680 --> 0:36:19.560
<v Speaker 2>Not just my wife. My mom lives a half hour away.

0:36:20.400 --> 0:36:26.920
<v Speaker 2>I almost I almost just just totally to do a

0:36:27.000 --> 0:36:31.520
<v Speaker 2>multi NBA tour instead of seeing my own mother. My

0:36:31.680 --> 0:36:34.680
<v Speaker 2>poor mother, who's gonna hear this and be super pissed.

0:36:34.840 --> 0:36:37.000
<v Speaker 3>So how close did you get to going through with it?

0:36:37.040 --> 0:36:37.440
<v Speaker 3>Before you?

0:36:37.600 --> 0:36:41.880
<v Speaker 2>I was looking at flights, I was figuring out I

0:36:42.000 --> 0:36:44.040
<v Speaker 2>was the flight. I had already decided I was doing

0:36:44.120 --> 0:36:46.960
<v Speaker 2>the Dallas thing. The question was how far is it

0:36:47.000 --> 0:36:49.800
<v Speaker 2>from the airline to the because there's two airports in Dallas,

0:36:50.120 --> 0:36:52.600
<v Speaker 2>how how far is it from the arena to the

0:36:52.680 --> 0:36:55.799
<v Speaker 2>airport in Dallas and in Philly to where? Did I

0:36:55.840 --> 0:36:59.080
<v Speaker 2>have any chance of getting to Philly before the game

0:36:59.160 --> 0:37:01.640
<v Speaker 2>was over because there was only like two hours between games.

0:37:02.120 --> 0:37:03.719
<v Speaker 2>But it's not that long of a flight. I thought

0:37:03.719 --> 0:37:05.279
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna be able to do it. It's gonna

0:37:05.320 --> 0:37:07.239
<v Speaker 2>be historic. It was gonna be like a parent who

0:37:07.320 --> 0:37:09.360
<v Speaker 2>says two kids playing in two different you see in

0:37:09.400 --> 0:37:13.640
<v Speaker 2>the NFL sometimes, but instead I ate bagels and locks

0:37:13.680 --> 0:37:14.160
<v Speaker 2>with my mother.

0:37:14.360 --> 0:37:16.120
<v Speaker 3>Did you go to our house? Yeah?

0:37:16.239 --> 0:37:18.280
<v Speaker 2>We did a whole thing. Yeah, you were out of town,

0:37:18.640 --> 0:37:22.839
<v Speaker 2>your sister, older sisters working, your youngest sister was at

0:37:22.840 --> 0:37:25.759
<v Speaker 2>a roller skating thing. It was just yeah, so I went.

0:37:25.960 --> 0:37:29.040
<v Speaker 2>So I was almost terrible, son, Mom. Who is the

0:37:29.080 --> 0:37:31.480
<v Speaker 2>most loyal viewer and listener of this? Just so you know,

0:37:31.880 --> 0:37:34.440
<v Speaker 2>like I used to with my radio career, I'm a performer.

0:37:34.719 --> 0:37:37.839
<v Speaker 2>What I'm saying is obviously for entertainment. It's like an

0:37:37.920 --> 0:37:40.920
<v Speaker 2>actor on TV. You can't really believe what I'm saying.

0:37:40.960 --> 0:37:43.279
<v Speaker 2>I love you, Happy Mother's Day. Talk to you guys

0:37:43.320 --> 0:37:44.279
