If you miss any 5 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 1: of our interviews, just go to Dan Patrick dot com. 6 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: We will bring back some of his comments. He basically said, 7 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: the Lakers treated that game last night like it was 8 00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: a preseason game. I just kind of go in, go 9 00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: through the motions, and get out of here, head back home. 10 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: Hopefully Anthony Davis is going to be healthy. Here's how 11 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: Lebron summed up last night's performance. And we got our 12 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 1: ass kicked. I mean it's just that simple. They did, 13 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,400 Speaker 1: got whatever they wanted to get to in this game. 14 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: And you know, we gotta be better obviously if we're 15 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 1: going to force a game seven. So obviously a lot 16 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 1: to learn from in his game, a lots of cover see. Uh, 17 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: you know what, we got to do better going in 18 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: to game six. But I mean they pretty much just 19 00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 1: kicked our ass. I mean it's nothing else really to say. Yeah, 20 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: Reggie Miller said that this was almost like a game plan. 21 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 1: Let's just go in and then let's head back home. 22 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:04,920 Speaker 1: Try to get a win and then force a Game 23 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: seven in Phoenix. Give Anthony Davis the day off. The 24 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: number one trending topic right now has to do with 25 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: Anthony Davis. Charles Barkley had this to say last night 26 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: on T N T Antha Davis. I told you Delicas 27 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: can't win this series. Forget about the championship. They can't 28 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: win this series without street clothes. I'm not even you 29 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: want to explain that I'll call him after this Street 30 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: closed Davis because he's always in street clothes. Do you 31 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: think number one trending topic Anthony Street close Davis eight 32 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 1: seven seven three D P show email address TP of 33 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 1: Dan Patrick Duck on Twitter handle a TP show. If 34 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 1: you survive, then this is just sort of a messy 35 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: first round series, and then street clothes is funny. If 36 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: you don't get past the first round, that might be 37 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: sort of the image you're left with with Anthony Davis 38 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: not being able to play. But there's so many of 39 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: these role players that maybe they don't know their roles 40 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: or they certainly don't perform their roles. Dennis Shrewder cannot 41 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: go scoreless. If you're the second best player, you're in trouble. 42 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: And you saw that last night, lack of you know, 43 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: any performance from anybody, and it felt like after the 44 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: second quarter like this was done. It was a fatal complete. 45 00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: It was just a matter of okay, how much is 46 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: Phenie can't rubbed this in? And when you're winning by 47 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: thirty Lebron exit stage left, that's I don't like it. 48 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: Now you can say, well, you probably went back to 49 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:59,839 Speaker 1: get treatment. Okay. It just feels like, hey, you win 50 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: and you lose as a team and Lebron knew when 51 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: he you know, left the bench. Now is it a 52 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: big thing? No, I just don't. I love Lebron. I'm 53 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 1: a you know, staunch supporter. I just don't like when 54 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: he does little things that he doesn't need to do. Okay, 55 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna get treatment, so now you're gonna get a 56 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: head start here. Okay, just stay you know, if you 57 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: were up by thirty, is Lebron going into the locker 58 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:35,119 Speaker 1: room to get treatment? Probably not. And I know it's 59 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: a small thing, but these are the I don't like 60 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 1: when Lebron When when Skip Bayliss and some of these 61 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: other pundit's you know, they go after Lebron And if 62 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: I don't know why, I feel like I have to 63 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: stick up for him, but I do because I don't 64 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: think we'll see Lebron James something like this ever again. 65 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: This career. Uh, individual numbers, the team numbers. I mean, 66 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: it's once in a generation. He truly is once in 67 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: a generation. But stay on the bench. Ice your foot 68 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: on the bench if you want to, or your ankle. 69 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: But if you're up thirty, you're not going to the 70 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 1: locker room. I don't think the greatest game comes to 71 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: compete greatest in the game. That's the greatest in the 72 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: three two one. The greatest in the game come to 73 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: compete in the US Women's Open from the Olympic Club 74 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: Thursday through Sunday on Golf Channel, Peacock and NBC. Adrian 75 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: Wojnarowski had this tweet. Celtics president of basketball Operations Danny 76 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: Ainge seriously considering his future with the franchise and could 77 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: make a decision to step down. Sources tell the ESPN 78 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: this it feels like has been simmering there for a 79 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: little while. And if Danny Ainge does step down, does 80 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: he step in another direction to another team? Would be 81 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,359 Speaker 1: something to keep an eye on as well. Also, the 82 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 1: investing investment group that bought the Minnesota Timberwolves that includes 83 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: Alex Rodriguez. There has been talk rumors that he wants 84 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: to move the team to Seattle, so then it's a relocation, 85 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: not you pay the expansion fee. I was told yesterday 86 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: that a Rod is not moving the Timberwolves to Seattle. 87 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: He of course started his basket or baseball career. There 88 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: fond memories of Seattle. Wants to bring basketball back. Somebody 89 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: is going to bring basketball back to Seattle. But I'm 90 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: told that Alex Rodriguez did not go in and help 91 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: buy the Minnesota Timberwolves to move them. I think the 92 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: other part of that would be interesting to keep an 93 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: eye on is Kevin Garnett's role with the Minnesota Timberwolves. 94 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: KG has made no secret of the fact he hates 95 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 1: the owner, Glenn Taylor, but now Taylor's selling it. Does 96 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: AG get involved with the Minnesota Timberwolves. So just a 97 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: couple of side topics here, But I know that that 98 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: was his story yesterday. That was just kind of percolating. 99 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: And then I reached out to a source. I said, 100 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: any chance that a Rod would move this team? And 101 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: I was told no chance. Exclamation point, yeah point. Do 102 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: you think if the NBA moved let's say the Timberwols hypothetically, 103 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: like you said, they would take that opportunity to move 104 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: another team at the same time to Vegas. It seems 105 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 1: like obvious. It seems obvious. Well, I wonder if the 106 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,840 Speaker 1: Oakland A's are going to end up in Vegas? Right? 107 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 1: Could the Sacramento Kings end in Vegas? Like somebody's going 108 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: to end up in Vegas. But I think the NBA 109 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: wants to give back, like Seattle never should have lost 110 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: their team. But it feels like the NBA wants to 111 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: do a make good But then you're gonna have to 112 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: pay the expansion fee. This would have been a relocation 113 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 1: fee with the Timberwolves moved to Seattle. Yeah. Mcleven. Do 114 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: you have to play inside in Vegas for a whole 115 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,119 Speaker 1: summer season or you'd have to build an indoor arena probably? 116 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: Or if you play at night? Can you get away 117 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 1: with it? You're talking about baseball baseball? Yeah, if the 118 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: A's moved there, Yeah, because they just built this incredibly 119 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: expensive football stadium, would they played there? Can you play 120 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: baseball in that football stadium? But remember we ripped the 121 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: A's for playing on a football field for years now. Yeah, 122 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: but but this is inside on turf. That field at 123 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: the Colisseum is like, there's no playing field worse than that. 124 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: I mean, it's you got a baseball in field. I've 125 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: been on the turf at Lambeau where they painted grass 126 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 1: for a playoff game. They painted it, they painted dirt. 127 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: But you know, wait, there was charm with that because 128 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: it's Lambeau. The Oakland A's the Oakland Raiders, and that 129 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: was it's a it's a decrepit building. And the turf, 130 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's not it's so substandard to everybody else. Yeah, Paul, 131 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: that A's baseball field. You'd see the line for the 132 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,679 Speaker 1: end zone. They'd be faded white lines for the twenty 133 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: and thirty yard line you could see, and they try 134 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: to get rid of them. They couldn't. Y's dad bad 135 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: a lot of basketball tonight, Wizard, Sixers, Hawks, Knicks, Grizzlies, Jazz, MAVs, Clippers. 136 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: Phone calls are always welcome. We say good morning to Peacock, 137 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: our streaming service. We also say good morning to our 138 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: great radio affiliates around the country. The Blazers very well 139 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: may not get past the first round of the playoffs, 140 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: and despite the team's lack of success, We're gonna remember 141 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 1: Damian Lillard's performance last night against the Nuggets. He had 142 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: fifty fifty five, He had twelve to three pointers, double 143 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: overtime loss, and the Blazers down three games to two. 144 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: Lillard needed just a little help last night, just a little. 145 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: But if you watch degree of difficulty, if they gave 146 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: you points for degree of difficulty, he'd be Simone Biles, like, 147 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: he just does things and you go, how is he 148 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: doing that? Step backs over guys who were six ten 149 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: and seven feet? I mean, his range is matched only 150 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 1: by Steph Curry. That's pretty good when you say, well, 151 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: you know who's who are you compared to Steph Curry? 152 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: Trey Young is trying to get there, got a ways 153 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 1: to go, but Damian Lillard and Reggie Miller brought up 154 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,000 Speaker 1: some great points. He said, look, don't blame Damian Lillard 155 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: like he's loyal, wants to stay in Portland, you know, 156 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 1: because I said, you know, I hope we didn't look 157 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: back and say what could have been? Because that's really 158 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 1: what it's been so far. And are they wasting his 159 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 1: talent there? Can you get the right people there because 160 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: Damian Lillard. There's I mean, the number of people in 161 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 1: the world who can do what he does you could 162 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: probably count on one hand. He's He's he's that special. 163 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: I just I hate to see this where somebody goes 164 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: through their career and then we look back and say, well, 165 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: they didn't win. He does everything he can possibly do 166 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 1: and it's still not enough. In Denver, you know, I'll 167 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: give him credit. They don't have their starting backcourt. I mean, 168 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 1: Jamal Murray's not playing. But you know, that's playoff basketball 169 00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: where you have these performances and you know, I go 170 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: back to when Jerry West averaged forty a game in 171 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 1: the NBA Finals and lost, and he was named the 172 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: most valuable player. By the way, I'm doing this podcast, 173 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: I'm one of the producers. It's called Westward, and Jerry 174 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: West is prominently featured here with his thoughts on the 175 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: Lakers moving to Los Angeles, all the things that he's done, 176 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: and you know, I find out so many interesting things. 177 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: The Detroit Pistons offered their entire roster to the Lakers 178 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:09,839 Speaker 1: for the chance to draft Magic Johnson. Now they didn't 179 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: have a great team back then, but they I mean 180 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: imagine that because you know, you wanted to have a 181 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: Detroit guy, a Michigan guy. He played at Michigan State, 182 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: and the Pistons offered their entire roster. That's when they 183 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: ended up with Magic's teammate Greg Kelser from Michigan State 184 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 1: with the fourth pick overall, imagine you're going to offer 185 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: up your entire roster. And also there's been this story 186 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: that is out there. I don't know if Jerry West 187 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: has ever confirmed this. The Lakers they were sort of 188 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: split on who to take Sidney Moncrieffe, who was a 189 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: wonderful player. That the story that I was told as 190 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: Jerry West wanted Sydney Moncrieffe, not Magic, and Sydney Moncriefe, 191 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: I think he's a Hall of Famer. If he's not, 192 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 1: he should be. But Sydney Moncreek was a wonderful player 193 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: for the Bucks. But that was the story. So you 194 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: find out all of these crazy stories, like Jerry Buss. 195 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 1: Jerry Buss owned that he was the owner of the 196 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,960 Speaker 1: Pacers for a little while and then he got the 197 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 1: opportunity through Jack Kent Cook to be able to buy 198 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 1: the Lakers. And I think there's a crazy story that 199 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: Jerry Buss owned the Chrysler building in New York like 200 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 1: he was. He was selling off assets to be able 201 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 1: to get the Lakers. And what Jerry Buss realized is, 202 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make this Hollywood. I'm going to give you 203 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: cheerleaders in short skirts, were inviting celebrities here. We're gonna 204 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 1: play in a style that Paul Westhead initially tried to implement. 205 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: He got fired. Magic basically said it's you know, I 206 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: wanting fired. They brought in pat Riley, who was part 207 00:12:56,559 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 1: of Chickhern's broadcast team, and Ryles and basically ran what 208 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: Paul Westhead had instituted Showtime basketball. I mean Jerry Buss. 209 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: Look at every team tries to do this like what 210 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: Jerry Buss did to be able to say, here's Showtime. 211 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: Come out and you're going to see something that's different 212 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: than everybody else. Also, the house lights show everybody in 213 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: the lower portion of the arena, whereas it used to 214 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: be the stage was almost like a Broadway stage and 215 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: it was dark all around it, and that was what 216 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: you were watching. But the Lakers and Jerry Buss remarkable 217 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: what he was able to do. Yeah, McLevin, see I 218 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 1: knew Jack head Cook as the Redskins owner. Yes, and 219 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: I just googled it. So he kind of owned the 220 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: Lakers and built the forum way back in the day. Yes. 221 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: He also was in the Guinness Book of Records for 222 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: the most expensive divorce in history. Not a record you want, Well, no, 223 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,960 Speaker 1: it's not anymore because nobody is going to touch Jeff 224 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: Bezo Well, Bill Gates well who and at the time 225 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: Jack Kent Cook I think it was he had to 226 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: pay sixty million dollars. That was the largest divorce settlement. 227 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: Jordan's was bigger than that. Neil Diamond I remember, had 228 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: a large divorce settlement, but Gates and Bezos it's a 229 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: different ball like that a day sixty million, yeah, man, 230 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: And so there you go. There's just some nuggets that 231 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:37,280 Speaker 1: I've learned with this podcast called Westward.

He traded the Chrysler building and the 243 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: ownership of it. So that was his first major trade, 244 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 1: didn't He gave up a ranch and sixty seven million 245 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: dollars and ownership of the Chrysler building.

Yea Chrysler building. It's iconic. Great 248 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: Chrysler building is gorgeous. But the sun goes down. I 249 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: mean just imagine that during the negotiations and Chrysler buildings 250 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: in New York and just when when the sun goes 251 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: down and it lights up at night, it is gorgeous. 252 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: Nothing like it. Yeah, McLevin, you haven't been inside it, 253 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 1: have you? I have gorgeous lobby. Yes, not the best 254 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: place to work. I haven't been in there since mid eighties. 255 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it probably hasn't changed much. Well, it's like 256 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: when you go into Grand Central that whatever that is 257 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: that they created up there, like it's the sixteen Chapel, 258 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: it's it's you know this fresco that. I mean, it's 259 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: absolutely stunning. But Jackie Kennedy Onassu's finance that, or help 260 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: finance the refurbishing Grand Central. And you see that seat 261 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: when you go there, light fixtures and the ceiling if 262 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: you go in there. Now, people who commute, they don't 263 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: take time. But my brother came in from out of 264 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 1: town and he was going to take a train from 265 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: Grand Central to come up and see us.

I mean, New Yorkers are resilient because there's 332 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: like you look at some of these living spaces and 333 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: you go, how much is that?

Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting 358 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:59,360 Speaker 1: Brad Stevens is no longer the head coach of the Celtics. 359 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: He's moving into the front office on a full time basis, 360 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: replacing Danny Ainge. Celtics staff and coaches have been informed 361 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: of the changes. The Celtics are now looking for a 362 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: new head coach, springing the Hall of Famer two time 363 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 1: NBA champ Chris Bosh. But to talk to you again, Chris, 364 00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:23,560 Speaker 1: how are you. I'm doing good man, Good to see you. 365 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 1: Everything is, everything is going well. How's the jumper right now? Man? 366 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: You know it is rusty. I haven't shot a jumper 367 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 1: in a while. How long did it take you to 368 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 1: get used to your role with the Heat because you 369 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: were you were All Star in Toronto, you put up 370 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,920 Speaker 1: big numbers, and then now you gotta be the third guy. Yeah, 371 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: and it's not as easy as it looks. I didn't 372 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: get used to it, um, probably until we finally won 373 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: the first championship, and then it was always one of 374 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: those things where you know, I constantly had to reinvent myself. 375 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 1: I don't think I ever all the way got used 376 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,159 Speaker 1: to it because I had to morph, you know, and 377 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 1: even on some nights, you know, it would change, so 378 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: you know, Bron or d might be out and I 379 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: have to you know, my scoring. Some nights I would 380 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 1: just set screens and be the big guy rolling down 381 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: the paint and playing defense. Some days would just be 382 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: you know, we need you to guard the biggest guy 383 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 1: and guard fifty screen and rolls, and you know, that 384 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,680 Speaker 1: was one of the fascinating things I found from being 385 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: with that team. But I would say in you know, 386 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: just getting used to being uncomfortable. It definitely took more 387 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: than one season. I would say the season and a 388 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 1: half to kind of really fit into my role. And 389 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 1: then even after that, I had to get used to 390 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: things changing. Lebron ever really get mad at you. Oh, 391 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: I'm sure, I'm sure. I mean, you know, that's uh, 392 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 1: that's one of the parts of playing the game, right 393 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: If you're on a team with somebody, you're gonna go 394 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: through the whole wave of emotions. And I'm sure you know, uh, 395 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,440 Speaker 1: he was upset with me. I'm for sure it was 396 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: upset with him on many occasions, but we were always 397 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: able to work it out, you know, work with communication 398 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 1: and and it always came from a place to get better. 399 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: That that's what made it important. What do you make 400 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: of what happened with the Celtics? Here's Angel, you know, 401 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: leaving Brad Stevens moving up, you have I thought you 402 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 1: had a team that could win championships plural here with 403 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,119 Speaker 1: that young talent and that you know, that window of 404 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 1: opportunity closes pretty quickly. Look at what the Nets have 405 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: there in Brooklyn. So you're not going to be better 406 00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: than them. You're not better than the Sixers. So how 407 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 1: would you how would you look at the Celtics right now? Well, 408 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: they don't have to rebuild, you know, with Tatum and Brown, 409 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: Marcus Smart, they have good young talent. They have a 410 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 1: nucleus I think that they can build off of. I 411 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 1: think definitely this year was a disappointment. I think they'll 412 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: be the first to tell you that they definitely underachieved 413 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,359 Speaker 1: this year and then injuries started piling up and it 414 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: ended up being a disappointing season for him. But with 415 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: the talent that they have, they have to continue I 416 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: guess you know there were some things to figure out, obviously, right. 417 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: But I think for them moving forward, they need to 418 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: put the necessary pieces um in place in order to 419 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: be successful obviously, right, But I mean they're right there. 420 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 1: They have to continue to get better. Um. Obviously there 421 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: there's been a huge shaker. I'm interested to see who 422 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: who will be the next hires um for coaches and 423 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,440 Speaker 1: gems and stuff like that, and filling in the rest 424 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: of the gaps with the team, your best Miami Heat 425 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: team against this Brooklyn Nets team, who would win? Yeah? Oh, 426 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 1: you know, I'm a competitor, man. I always say we're 427 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: gonna win every single time. But I tell you, man, 428 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: those the Nets, the more they play together, they'll get 429 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: better and better. They're they're tremendous offensive team. So you 430 00:25:55,480 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 1: got to Durant, right, you get you get Durant. I 431 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 1: mean we probably move around. I would guard him a little, 432 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: of course, or try to. Brian would guard him mostly. 433 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: Probably Shane Battier would guard him quite a bit. But yeah, 434 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: that would be the fun part when they go small 435 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: and how how dynamic the game would become and how 436 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 1: we try to match up with that. What's the most 437 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,199 Speaker 1: impressive performance that you ever witnessed, whether it was on 438 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: you know, with a teammate or the opposition. Kobe scoring 439 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 1: eighty one points. Oh yeah, I was in there. I 440 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 1: was a young fellow in that game taking my beatings. Man. 441 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,440 Speaker 1: But what's that like, though? When do you realize, oh, 442 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 1: this is historical? Yeah? It was surreal. I mean, um, 443 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 1: you when once you realize that it's too late and 444 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:50,479 Speaker 1: it's and it's Kobe. And I remember just kind of 445 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,199 Speaker 1: running down the court and I kept looking up at 446 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: the screen and it's like his score was multiplying. I 447 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 1: was like, how does he scoring five points at a time? 448 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: This is graz And it was you know, we were 449 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,199 Speaker 1: a bad defensive team that year, and just you know, 450 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: we were trying to right, We're trying to figure things out, 451 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: and it's just like, oh my god, we're in the 452 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: stable center. They're killing us, and everybody's laughing and Kobe, 453 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,879 Speaker 1: everybody except Kobe. He's just got the eye of Tiger 454 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 1: right now. And he was unstoppable. It was. It was 455 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 1: just an incredible performance. It's one of those things where 456 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 1: you find yourself watching even though you're in the game. 457 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: Do you think he could have scored one hundred? Yeah? Yeah, 458 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: he's one of those guys. Yeah, I was so. The 459 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: funny thing about that story is like, I think, Um 460 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,280 Speaker 1: a month before, a few weeks before, he had sixty 461 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: one and three quarters on the Mavericks, and I was 462 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 1: looking at that game. I said, what in the world 463 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: are they doing? How do you let this guy score 464 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: sixty points in three quarters? That's atrocious? Got smashed and 465 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,360 Speaker 1: you know it was crazy. I feel bad for Jalen Rose. 466 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: Whenever the anniversary comes up, everybody wants to talk to 467 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: Jalen because Jalen was guarding, well, trying to guard Kobe 468 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: in that game. Yeah, yeah, he got a He got 469 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 1: a nice chunk of those those points. Man. Kobe gave 470 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: it to everybody. Man. What was his second best performance 471 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: you ever witnessed? Uh lebron Um Game six in Boston 472 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: in two thousand and twelve by far? What were his desire? Incredible? 473 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: What were his numbers in that? Do you remember it? 474 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 1: I can't remember. I know we have I think I 475 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: want to say forty five. Yeah, I want to say 476 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: you had forty five points, But I remember Um, I 477 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: had a I had a sort growing and of course 478 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: being down three two going into Boston garden, you know, 479 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: it's it's not in a situation you want to be in. 480 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 1: And I just remember him being pretty confident and I 481 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: was I was ailing, I had I had a hurt growing, 482 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 1: so I'm trying to figure out how I'm just even 483 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: going to contribute, and so I'm playing with Payne and 484 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 1: about me. Way through the second quarter. Early in the 485 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: second quarter, I was realizing, like, man, this, this dude 486 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 1: hasn't missed yet, and so I just just got the 487 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: hell out the way. And it made my job a 488 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: little easier because I'm like, hey, if we get if 489 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: we keep getting stopped, just give the ball to him 490 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: and we'll just continue riding this way. But it was 491 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: an incredible performance. Why do you think Paul Pierce doesn't 492 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: like Lebron. I don't think it's that that he doesn't 493 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: like him. I think it's just, you know, extreme competitors. 494 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: There's bad blood, though. Chris like, oh, yeah, of course. 495 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: I mean, look, you know playoffs you play. When you 496 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: play somebody so many times in the playoffs like they did, 497 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: you're naturally just not gonna like them. You know, you 498 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 1: don't have time to go to dinner or sit down, 499 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: you know, Um, There's been plenty of Celtics that I 500 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: don't like, you know, and uh, that's just that's just 501 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: how it goes. But Paul, he's he's a you know, 502 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: he's a huge competitor. Um, he wants to win and 503 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: if he doesn't, he's probably not in the best mood. 504 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: Who who do you not like to this day? Well, 505 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 1: you know, there's nothing over, nothing's blared over. You know, 506 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: it's all good Man probably retired. You know, you're good 507 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: with Kevin Garnan. Yeah, that's what we were. Um, we 508 00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 1: were talking at the Hall of Fame after his induction. 509 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:29,719 Speaker 1: We got the chat and you know, I've we like 510 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: I said, we were extremely competitive and we were churched 511 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 1: back and forth. But um, that was one of the 512 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: best parts about um being outside of the game is 513 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 1: having the conversations. And that's the first thing I said 514 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 1: to Kevin. I'm like, yo, you remember you used to 515 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: file me the I didn't call it, you know, but 516 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: we had a good time talking about those intense battles, 517 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. KG would get in anybody's face. 518 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 1: It felt like, oh man, I had to stop talking 519 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: to him. I stopped talking to him, you know, during 520 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,600 Speaker 1: the game I got. I got involved in talking trash 521 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: with him one time, and he got the best of me, 522 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: and I said, you know what, that's never gonna happen again. 523 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: I overextended myself. I'm not a trash talker. Let me 524 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 1: just go out here and play ball. We're talking to 525 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: Chris Bosh, who is going to be inducted into the 526 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. One a couple of titles, and he's 527 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 1: got a new book out. It's called Letters to a 528 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: Young Athlete, now available online and wherever books are sold. 529 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: What were you hoping to accomplish when you first started 530 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: this project. You know, at first it was just more 531 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 1: of a cathartic experience, you know, just trying to get 532 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: things off of my chest and trying to figure out 533 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna do next with my life. You know, 534 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: after losing the game so quickly and not being able 535 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: to play anymore because of my medical condition, you know, 536 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:48,560 Speaker 1: I kind of had to rebound pretty quick. And you know, 537 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 1: in in trying to develop new habits and dive into 538 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 1: those hobbies that I love and and really really dig 539 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: deep and try to find those things. I was just 540 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 1: trying to get things off my mind, and it kind 541 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: of transferred into or transformed into, you know, helping a 542 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,200 Speaker 1: young athlete. The book is called Letters to a Young Athlete. 543 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: So I wanted to speak to all generations, of course, 544 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: but have that universal message to where you know, people 545 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: can take it, um whatever they want for themselves, look 546 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 1: at the lessons that helped me get to this point today, 547 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: and you know, hopefully it'll help them. So that's kind 548 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: of how everything transformed. I wanted to leave a memento, 549 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: if you will, for both the game of basketball and 550 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 1: the game of life. Were what kind of risk were you? 551 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: Like at worst, you know, were you risking your life 552 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:41,239 Speaker 1: not knowing it when you're out on the floor. Um, 553 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 1: it didn't get to that point. I was the first time. 554 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 1: You know, there were two conditions that happened with me, 555 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 1: two instances. The first time I was and you know, 556 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 1: I didn't know it. And then after after that, you know, 557 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 1: pretty much when you get that second blood clot, there's 558 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,040 Speaker 1: nothing else to talk about. You know, it's almost like 559 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 1: your radioactive. So you know, playing basketbaball pretty much was nuts. Uh. 560 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: In my best interest, I was told, was in my 561 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: family's best interest. In pretty much, you know, a team 562 00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: being um, in a situation where they could be liable. 563 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: You know, they were not going to uh, you know, 564 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: deal with those things. And I eventually had to come 565 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: to that realization. Yeah, it's gotta be tough because you 566 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: want to play, but you have to understand and that 567 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: that team doesn't once you out there. I mean, we've 568 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: seen this happen with Hank Gathers, Reggie Jis. I mean, 569 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 1: there there's bit athletes who passed away right in front 570 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 1: of us. Absolutely, and um, even the week before I 571 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: was hospitalized for the first time, Jerome Kersey passed away 572 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: from a blood clot um, you know, from a pulmonary embolism, 573 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,479 Speaker 1: and you know that that really I mean, you know, 574 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 1: when you're younger, right, you don't think of those things. 575 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: You don't think it's gonna happen to you. And then 576 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: you know, next thing I know, I'm in a doctor's 577 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: office and they're telling me all this information that I 578 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: don't want to hear, and you know, I had to 579 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: rebound from that. But all in all, I was able 580 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 1: to kind of get back to my normal self with 581 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,280 Speaker 1: the help of my family, going those on those quests 582 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,439 Speaker 1: to find out who I am and what I want 583 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: to do with this life. I'll leave you with this 584 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 1: finish the sentence. If the Lakers don't get out of 585 00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 1: the first round, expect them to make some big moves 586 00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 1: in the summertime. I think, Um, you know, they've just 587 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:31,239 Speaker 1: it's been a rough go at it this year. They've 588 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,799 Speaker 1: been hampered by injuries. I think, you know, we all 589 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: see that they're not playing like they were last year. 590 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 1: And even for Brian, I mean, he's um, you know, 591 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: he struggled especially. I think that high ankle stringth I'm 592 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 1: high ankle spring took him out of his rhythm. I 593 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,280 Speaker 1: think for them, they'll have to add some more pieces 594 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: and and you know, try to compete for a championship 595 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: again next year. But you were talking about playing that 596 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: game in the garden with a strained groin, and I 597 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,919 Speaker 1: mean Adie wasn't able to play. But just how limit 598 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: are you were you with an injury like that, it's 599 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: all the way limiting. And this is me, um, When 600 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: I when I tore my inductor muscle, That's pretty much 601 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 1: what it was, And it was on Mother's Day and 602 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 1: it was game one of the second round to it, 603 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: I tore it and I didn't come back until the 604 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:23,320 Speaker 1: longest or the shortest I could rest was three weeks 605 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 1: and it hurt like hell. Still coming back. So in 606 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,359 Speaker 1: eighties situation, I don't I really don't see him being 607 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:34,239 Speaker 1: able to come back from that. He'll, you know, he'll 608 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 1: have to rest and he won't play until next season. 609 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 1: Most likely he's Chris Bosh.

Today, once again the big news Rad 634 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 1: Steve is no longer the head coach of the Celtics 635 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 1: by his choice, moving into the front office, and Danny 636 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:09,840 Speaker 1: Ainge is stepping down as the president of Basketball Operations. Yes, Pauling, 637 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: why would the Celtics ownership let their head coach Brad 638 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: Stevens stop being a coach to pick players and be 639 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 1: the GM. I don't know. They have a fantastic head 640 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: coach under contract. I can't imagine why you would let 641 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: him step out of that role to look for someone 642 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,839 Speaker 1: like himself to hire.

It's life finding out that you could 658 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 1: have dated that fine girl, but she really doesn't like 659 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 1: short people. You know. It's man, It's one of them 660 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 1: things that I'm gonna be thinking about Magic in a 661 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 1: Detroit uniform. While my question to you, though, is this 662 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:23,240 Speaker 1: which team last night suffered the worst loss momentum wise? 663 00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:27,320 Speaker 1: Now you got Portland Dame fifty five points plus ten assists, 664 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,879 Speaker 1: the man was responsible for seventy five points, concluding if 665 00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:34,320 Speaker 1: some of those might have been three pointers or Anthony 666 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 1: Davison the Lakers getting something behind, I mean having a 667 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: guy that isn't available when you really really need him, 668 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:46,879 Speaker 1: especially and you're defending the title. You know which one 669 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: suffered the worst loss momentum wise in your opinion? Well, 670 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if the Lakers loss was one of 671 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: those that momentum wise hurt them. I think they went 672 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: into that game and thanks for the phone called Jeff, 673 00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 1: they expected to lose. The question is at what point 674 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 1: did they realize that they were going to get blown out? 675 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: You know Portland has they waste a fifty five point 676 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 1: performance by Damian Lillard. Now you go back home, All right, 677 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 1: are you expected to win in Denver? No? But if 678 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: you go into double overtime with Denver and you get 679 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 1: fifty five from Lillard, you got to come out with 680 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 1: a victory because how many of those performances can you have? 681 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,360 Speaker 1: And so I think it's more demoralizing for the Blazers 682 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: because it could have won that game. Go back home 683 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: and then close out the Nuggets, and now they might 684 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 1: be writing a different chapter. Here Kyle in California. Hey Kyle, 685 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: welcome Backbun. I mean, I don't know what's to said, really, 686 00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 1: Dennis Schroeder, you turned on a huge contract and you 687 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,120 Speaker 1: get outplayed by Cameron's Payne. Why would we give you 688 00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: any money next year? I mean the team they put together, 689 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: we already knew it was terrible. It got shadowed by 690 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 1: Lebron and AD's greatness. And you saw them get absolutely 691 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 1: ward by the Suns last night. They just have way 692 00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 1: better players everywhere they're making shots. Lakers can't make it 693 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 1: damn thing. I'm in shambles. And I even missed a 694 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: few of Dame's ridiculous threes because Lebron started hitting threes 695 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 1: when they're down twenty five, and I got all excited. 696 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,959 Speaker 1: All right, Well, thank you, Coy, thanks for the phone calls. 697 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 1: Chris Mannocks will join us coming up at the top 698 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,319 Speaker 1: of the hour. We'll get some thoughts from him on 699 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,919 Speaker 1: who's the next head coach of the Boston Celtics. It's 700 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 1: limerick time. Todd has a limerick about the Lakers in 701 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 1: the sun. Do you have one limerick or two?

Okay, all right, 706 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 1: and I'm going to vote for Limerick two. Limerick two 707 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:02,240 Speaker 1: is as follows.

Okay, what 721 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 1: was better Phoebe Kates's performance there or Judge Reinhold's performance 722 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:10,239 Speaker 1: where he's looking at her? Did you take that role? 723 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:19,840 Speaker 1: Um like in a Sandler movie? Now? No, but maybe 724 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: twenty years ago? Yes? Yes, boy. If we recreate that one, 725 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 1: Fritzie has to play Judge Reinhold. I mean, why would 726 00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 1: that be embarrassing?
