Speaker 2: though Nancy Guthrie, but the NBA could wait, because I'll
Speaker 2: be honest, I've been waiting on the NBA to be
Speaker 2: exciting for a while, so that could wait for a second.
Speaker 2: I just saw a headline that must be addressed because
Speaker 2: you just said it is a weekend of.
Speaker 1: Love, Weekend of love.
Speaker 2: Sex med Winter Olympic Stars. They had to order an
Speaker 2: extra ten thousand condoms. Why do is there always take
Speaker 2: some sort of condoms story around the Olympics.
Speaker 1: Olympic village. They get all horned up.
Speaker 2: I get all that, but there seems to be a
Speaker 2: new story every every Olympics. They had to promise extra
Speaker 2: supplies because they're running out. Man, how horned up are
Speaker 2: Olympic athletes? Oh? Listen, they're testosterone and destrougin, whatever we
Speaker 2: got in our bodies are pumping dude, young athletes in
Speaker 2: their prime. Jeez, Louise, Hey, at least they're safe, right, Hey,
Speaker 2: have fun. But I did want to bring up for
Speaker 2: all this Olympic six remember the Adam Sandler. Are these
Speaker 2: people having sex are working out? It's a great game,
Speaker 2: you know, with Barry Lincoln, with all these Olympians who
Speaker 2: are just specimens, ripped dudes, totally in shaped women just
Speaker 2: being like you, you, you, me, and you have we
Speaker 2: ever learned.
Speaker 1: Of like an Olympic baby. That's just like a super athlete.
Speaker 2: If all these countries of all stars from countries around
Speaker 2: the world, stars, if all these stars stars are haveing
Speaker 2: Olympic sex, shouldn't we somewhere along the lines learned of
Speaker 2: this little olympian, this little star athlete. It's like my
Speaker 2: mom was a Norwegian bops letter and my dad was
Speaker 2: from Chile and he was you know, your parents were
Speaker 2: close because it wasn't your dad a ping pong star,
Speaker 2: almost recruited.
Speaker 1: It's true to the Olympic team. My dad huge ping pong.
Speaker 2: Your mom brought down the you know stock a little
Speaker 2: bit sorry, that's true.
Speaker 1: She's a great woman, but she was no ping pong
Speaker 1: star like Rich's dad.
Speaker 2: But isn't it shocking that there is not a story
Speaker 2: of like, by the way, my dad in the Olympic.
Speaker 2: Rich's dad was scouted for Olympic ping pong joking pong.
Speaker 2: He's that good, he's fantastic. Fun fact about my dad,
Speaker 2: I was, sam I I do not be essue He'll
Speaker 2: Years ago we were in New York City and there
Speaker 2: was a ping pong bar called Spin. It might still
Speaker 2: be there for all I know. We decided to have
Speaker 2: a listener event and I'm like, all right, like a
Speaker 2: march bed, this bracket, first sixty four guys that sign up,
Speaker 2: We're gonna have a bracket, a ping pong tournament.
Speaker 1: My Dad's like, oh, I'll play.
Speaker 2: Would you believe my dad not only breezed through it,
Speaker 2: he whooped everyone and one the whole time schooled hundreds
Speaker 2: of our listeners in a tournament. Yeah, it was embarrassing.
Speaker 2: Forrescott is like Forrest Gumpians, one of those.
Speaker 4: Sports that you can play well into your like age,
Speaker 4: Like the mobility is, if you don't have to have mobility,
Speaker 4: you can play in a chair if you, well, not.
Speaker 2: Really, Asian scouts used to watch Rich's dad play, for sure.
Speaker 2: It's true story, so not even exagerating. But I'm sure
Speaker 2: there's plenty of stories of this Rich because any great
Speaker 2: athlete not all the time, but there's a lot of
Speaker 2: moments where oh and their parents were either a next
Speaker 2: pro and the mom was an Olympian. Like there's always
Speaker 2: some story. Who is the great Simone Biles? Who my
Speaker 2: daughter loves watching videos of Simone Biles, who's hurt fiance
Speaker 2: her husband in the NFL? Go on, someone fill in
Speaker 2: the blanks for me because I'm.
Speaker 3: A defender for the Chicago Bears.
Speaker 1: Who is it Dan Bayer?
Speaker 5: Is it Jonathan Jones?
Speaker 3: Is that?
Speaker 1: Sorry?
Speaker 2: I put everyone on the spot and didn't Meanto Jonathan.
Speaker 2: But you tell me if they don't have a child,
Speaker 2: that child isn't blessed, which is like Olympic Like we're
Speaker 2: talking athletic genetics, Like look at the Watt family. Think
Speaker 2: it's of course, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, right,
Speaker 2: chip off the old blocks. I'm Brown's dad is a guarantee.
Speaker 2: I'm Michael Jordan, Right, it's not always a guarantee. Well,
Speaker 2: but you have a greater chance. You come from great genetics.
Speaker 2: There's gonna be great opportunity for them. I'm just saying,
Speaker 2: I'm around Saint Brown's dad was like, you know, mister Olympia,
Speaker 2: the curries, the you know, we can name the Manning
Speaker 2: sports families all the time. I'm just shocked with all
Speaker 2: these stories of all this Olympic loving going on where
Speaker 2: you have to order tens of thousands of condoms, like
Speaker 2: they've trained four years for an event, yet just proving
Speaker 2: no matter how much you want to focus on something,
Speaker 2: they're really what they're doing.
Speaker 1: We can't keep it in their pants. They're blocking all
Speaker 1: this potential for the future. That's what's happening here.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, you train four years. I've been doing
Speaker 2: downhill skiing for the last four years to get set
Speaker 2: for this. You know, they see some hot ass pass
Speaker 2: and that's that that distracts you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, God bless these Olympians.
Speaker 2: So all I'm saying is that I'm surprised we don't
Speaker 2: see more Olympic babies that are like a combination.
Speaker 1: So they're all practicing safe sex. We established why, I
Speaker 1: guess so, And.
Speaker 3: It's a known fact.
Speaker 6: Rich when people actually push themselves in fitness that you
Speaker 6: do get a little bit wound up.
Speaker 3: Really.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you push yourself.
Speaker 6: Yeah, when you go to the gym and you really
Speaker 6: push hard, it's like you're you're in like endorphins, like
Speaker 6: the bones. You have to break a sweat, right, Yeah,
Speaker 6: you have to break a sweat. You have to like
Speaker 6: really push you right needs the guy that needs a
Speaker 6: new surgery. I love that that's your go to like
Speaker 6: back up when it still doesn't change the fact that
Speaker 6: you don't push yourself.
Speaker 2: How is I go to backup when you're mocking my
Speaker 2: workout saying I don't work out hard enough.
Speaker 1: But in the last year you've had your schedule for
Speaker 1: three surgeries. Man, But what is that? What is that
Speaker 1: tell you? Should I work out harder? Should follow your lead?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I mean you know your forty nine ers are all crumbling.
Speaker 2: They all have they need to have surgeries. Yeah, maybe
Speaker 2: they should get on riches pe wee herman work.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Maybe if they like.
Speaker 1: Put a minimal effort, maybe they'd be able to play.
Speaker 2: See what happened there. He was a lot to make
Speaker 2: fun of me. But when I went back in him,
Speaker 2: you guys all got silent you brought it there, so
Speaker 2: I had to I had to continue. I was sensing tension.
Speaker 2: But in a related story, the US was able to
Speaker 2: slip another one past the goalie. They're up five to
Speaker 2: one on lat Via. The new shipment hasn't arrived yet,
Speaker 2: Thank you, Dan. Right, and by the way, that that
Speaker 2: story deserves some context. Spot our video guy here Fox
Speaker 2: Sports are longtime pound producer of our patreon. He found
Speaker 2: fitness later in life and gotten shaped real quick. Well
Speaker 2: it seemed real quick, but it wasn't. It was a journey,
Speaker 2: I get it. But he pushed himself so hard, so
Speaker 2: fast that his body couldn't keep up. Or you can
Speaker 2: say he's getting older. He needs a few surgeries now.
Speaker 2: So you know, that's the question in itself, is that
Speaker 2: him just pushing too hard or not. And then the
Speaker 2: criticism is that Rich doesn't push himself at all, so
Speaker 2: of course he's not getting worked up and he's not
Speaker 2: all horned up like these olympians.
Speaker 3: I thought you were going to say it pushed him
Speaker 3: to swingers clubs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that too. I mean, the guy's horned up. That's
Speaker 1: why he's so horned on.
Speaker 4: What about all that time Spot spent living next to
Speaker 4: a power plant, you know, is that why he's getting
Speaker 4: the surgeries.
Speaker 6: I live next to the La River, which is just
Speaker 6: a cement sort of shoot that carries water, radioactive water.
Speaker 2: Who knows, you know what, though, Richard, like you said,
Speaker 2: it's a week of love. Is Valentine's Week. There's a
Speaker 2: lot of loving going on. No one's really talking about
Speaker 2: it when it comes to the Olympics, and it all
Speaker 2: makes sense. You have hot, young, in shape, wrned up
Speaker 2: in shape, Olympians all in one place, and it seems
Speaker 2: to come up, you know, in some weird article every
Speaker 2: year and once again without fail.
Speaker 1: I have one one less question. Then we'll get into
Speaker 1: real stuff. I apologize.
Speaker 3: We'll talk nobody's give love to the NBA.
Speaker 2: Well, we'll talk NBA. I' have an AI thought. We'll
Speaker 2: talk some Tom Brady that there's a lot to get to.
Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about your team a little bit today,
Speaker 2: Danny g the Raiders, Clint Kopiak already making an impact.
Speaker 2: So we'll talk a little of everything today. Baseball before
Speaker 2: you know it. But I do have a thought, you know,
Speaker 2: I'm dancing with the stars. There's always a controversy where
Speaker 2: someone ends up breaking up their long term spouse or partner.
Speaker 2: Because you dance closely with someone like that, sparks fly
Speaker 2: and something always happens. Like every season on Dancing with
Speaker 2: the Stars, I don't watch the show. I just always
Speaker 2: read that now dancing the Chatcha, now dancing the Pasa doble.
Speaker 2: There's always someone that ooh, this song gets me all
Speaker 2: worked up, Sam, there's always someone that cheats on someone.
Speaker 2: Because you're dancing, you're.
Speaker 3: All up on someone.
Speaker 1: My theory is everyone's all horned up. Well, here's my thought.
Speaker 2: Do you think everyone, everyone that does couples figure skating
Speaker 2: has to just get with each other in the beginning
Speaker 2: to get it out of the way.
Speaker 3: No, I don't know.
Speaker 1: Maybe rich I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 2: You got to keep it professional sometimes and sometimes the
Speaker 2: evil what do we call it, the evil peen. It's
Speaker 2: in the way and makes you do things you don't
Speaker 2: want to do. Say, Dance with the Stars is a
Speaker 2: couple of months, and they can't resist each other because
Speaker 2: much like Olympians, they can't keep it in their Pantalonis
Speaker 2: you're telling me that you see these people all up
Speaker 2: on each other doing couples figure skating, you don't think's
Speaker 2: why you know not to get in people's head. Fox
Speaker 2: Sports Radio. I'm sure you're old lady, as they say,
Speaker 2: is a great woman and vice versa.
Speaker 3: Ladies.
Speaker 2: I know your man is probably the best in the world.
Speaker 2: But when anyone refers to their coworker as their office
Speaker 2: wife is like, I don't like that ever, because that
Speaker 2: leads to shenanigans. I'm not a fan of it.
Speaker 1: Oh your work husband, huh, mental note, something's going on.
Speaker 2: Keep an eye on Gary, Yeah Gary from accounting. Yeah,
Speaker 2: work husband.
Speaker 1: I don't like it.
Speaker 2: So I'm you know, anytime someone works too closely together,
Speaker 2: there's potential there, there's uh you think there's tension. Do
Speaker 2: you think a wife ever wants to hear her guy
Speaker 2: refer to someone as his work wife. Hell no, especially
Speaker 2: if she's hot. Imagine, yeah, you want you want to
Speaker 2: You want to see her work and realize that he's
Speaker 2: non threatening, like the most non threatened guy.
Speaker 1: Only time you would be okay.
Speaker 2: Only time you would be okay if your wife was like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I got a work husband, and you see him and
Speaker 2: he looks like, uh, looks like the revolting blob from
Speaker 2: Billy Madison.
Speaker 1: Ps, he's horny.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2: I think that what we're getting at as anytime you
Speaker 2: put good looking people or horned up people in one
Speaker 2: place working intimately for too long of a time, anything
Speaker 2: could happen. Shenanigans take place. And the only reason to
Speaker 2: bring it up is because it's Valentine's Day week And
Speaker 2: I just saw as we're having this conversation and the
Speaker 2: shipment again, I was gonna say, as we were having
Speaker 2: this conversation starting the show, I got a quick alert
Speaker 2: on my phone and said, you got condom alerts on
Speaker 2: your phone, as Rocky Belbo said, condom mediums. Rich has
Speaker 2: small I use them, Uh sex men. Winter Olympians are
Speaker 2: given ten thousand extra condoms as organizers promised extra supplies
Speaker 2: are on the way. Is if they're like hemp is
Speaker 2: on the way, you know? That reminds me of Rich.
Speaker 2: Where was that show?
Speaker 4: Rich is a big fan of like really trashy TV,
Speaker 4: like trash TV. This sounds like this Olympics thing sounds
Speaker 4: like a reality TV show.
Speaker 2: There's a show I forget if it was like Love
Speaker 2: Island or something where these kids they're all, you know,
Speaker 2: all horned up and they're all excited. They're all young
Speaker 2: and handsome, good looking, and they're on this island for
Speaker 2: like a day, and they're all acting like they're freaking
Speaker 2: out because they're not getting it.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 1: It's the one where that it's been six.
Speaker 3: Hours, they can't hook up with anybody.
Speaker 2: It's the one where the I've just made a weird
Speaker 2: symbol of my hands on on the one I'm doing.
Speaker 2: It's that cone that pops up and it has a void.
Speaker 2: I said, it's like, ye hi, you can't win the
Speaker 2: money if you touch each other. And all these like
Speaker 2: twenty somethingstation island. Yeah whatever, but they're there for like
Speaker 2: not even a day, but they're all losing their mind
Speaker 2: because they got it. So meanwhile, like married people are like,
Speaker 2: he's torture, bro. These young people make it it seem
Speaker 2: like a week without anything. His tortured me, while married
Speaker 2: people everywhere like a week without it, Oh, a regular week.
Speaker 3: That's called peace and quite good for them.
Speaker 7: Right.
Speaker 1: Well, anyway, enough smut this.
Speaker 2: The Olympians are there, like, when's the new shipment coming in?
Speaker 2: I can't take it and you just trained four years? Yeah,
Speaker 2: but I saw some hoppies of Moody from U Japan
Speaker 2: what are we.
Speaker 1: Doing, crazy man?
Speaker 2: Well, hey, Cavino and Rich just making observations, just explaining
Speaker 2: the Olympians.
Speaker 1: The Olympians are doing their thing right now.
Speaker 2: Too hot to handle, Rich, Oh, that's what it's too
Speaker 2: hot to hand, too hot to handle, too cold to hold.
Speaker 2: So that brings us to the NBA. Yeah, I have
Speaker 2: any thoughts on the Olympians.
Speaker 1: Let us know. I ninety nine mpleus and I figured
Speaker 1: it was pertinent. It all tied together.
Speaker 2: It's Valentine's Day week The Olympics are the only thing
Speaker 2: keeping our attention. And I saw that headline, so oham.
Speaker 2: On a personal note, you know Mike who runs this place?
Speaker 2: Not that there was Mike who runs this place? Or
Speaker 2: should I say Lance Romance? My goodness, he made me
Speaker 2: feel like the most underachiever ever. He's like, I'm already
Speaker 2: for Valentine's weekend. I was like, what do you got
Speaker 2: your mister no's underwear all dusted off?
Speaker 9: Oh?
Speaker 1: You meant that other way with the elephant trunk. Yeah,
Speaker 1: definitely definitely edible under round. Now I got my edible once.
Speaker 2: He's got like all these elaborate plans all figured out,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, yo, I haven't even started. What's today Thursday?
Speaker 1: Oh my god. He's like, I'm doing I don't want
Speaker 1: to give his business.
Speaker 2: He's not here today because he's already throwing rose pedals
Speaker 2: around the house.
Speaker 1: I'm like, damn, dude. I was like, are you in
Speaker 1: the doghouse or something. He's like, no, I just you know,
Speaker 1: bring the romance.
Speaker 2: I was like, dang, So, if you guys need some
Speaker 2: motivation to step your game up, trust me, there's guys
Speaker 2: like Mike count Dan that are willing to do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so step it up. Get ready.
Speaker 2: Well, let's turn our attention to the NBA now that
Speaker 2: we got the uh little bit. That's the thing, even
Speaker 2: when you want to, because what was our intention to
Speaker 2: start off the show talking about the NBA? Even if
Speaker 2: you want to, the NBA feels like something that you
Speaker 2: keep pushing off, like like a homework assignment or I
Speaker 2: got to study for something or whatever it is that
Speaker 2: you don't want to do.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 10: I've been hearing shows on the network talk about the
Speaker 10: Steelers for an hour. Dude, We're gonna get to the NBA,
Speaker 10: but the Steeler.
Speaker 7: You know what.
Speaker 2: I quit the NBA too in my mind. On Fox
Speaker 2: Sports Radio, I finally got it done. But you know
Speaker 2: how long I put off getting new gutters from my house?
Speaker 2: I finally did it. It's like the thing you don't
Speaker 2: want to spend money on. It's a chore that even
Speaker 2: meaning to paint, but you're just like, you know that
Speaker 2: next you know that outlet in everyone's room that doesn't
Speaker 2: have the outlet cover on it, and you're like, oh,
Speaker 2: I gotta go to home defuts two bucks.
Speaker 1: I gotta put that off because you'll never do it.
Speaker 2: Our intention was to kick off the show talk about
Speaker 2: the NBA, but you know what, there's a part of
Speaker 2: us that's reluctant to because it's like, ah, you know why,
Speaker 2: just something's something's missing, man, something's something's wrong with it.
Speaker 1: The NBA is not broken, but it's in trouble.
Speaker 10: You want to talk about what Joey Porter Senior said
Speaker 10: about Ben big Ben? Please instead, No, let's do it.
Speaker 10: But no, that's what's going on. You guys are absolutely
Speaker 10: right right now. Even some of the NBA fans I
Speaker 10: know are like, man, I'm just gonna wait until after
Speaker 10: the All Star breaking hopefully.
Speaker 3: Things pick up.
Speaker 2: Here's where I had this epiphany too, And you're right,
Speaker 2: it will pick up after the All Star break.
Speaker 1: At least that's our hope, right. I made this point
Speaker 1: the other day.
Speaker 2: I said, I sit at home for hours sometimes watching
Speaker 2: one on one like the Professor or this guy MK.
Speaker 2: One on one basketball tournaments, trash talking one on one competitions. Yeah,
Speaker 2: just a bunch of trash talking young kids on the
Speaker 2: playground because it's fun. Because I like basketball, and I
Speaker 2: like to play basketball, and I really do love basketball.
Speaker 2: Would you go as far watch the ball lose my fever.
Speaker 2: I like the way they dribble up and down the court.
Speaker 2: My point is, it's not that I don't want to
Speaker 2: watch basketball. I'm watching amateurs play street basketball one on
Speaker 2: one tournaments on social media. So I love the trash
Speaker 2: talk and I love the fire they bring, the fun
Speaker 2: they bring. I'd rather watch that than some actual NBA
Speaker 2: basketball at times. And the question is, well, why is that?
Speaker 2: Because there seems to be a buzz where a lot
Speaker 2: of people feel that way.
Speaker 1: It's not just us.
Speaker 2: You know, the Pistons are great. They're forty and thirteen
Speaker 2: Celtics not too far behind them. I don't feel a
Speaker 2: lot of people are talking about it. We're from the
Speaker 2: East Coast, The Knicks are thirty five and twenty and
Speaker 2: I think the theory goes like this, there's a multitude.
Speaker 2: Multitude is that the word of reasons as to why.
Speaker 2: I don't think you could just say it's just one thing,
Speaker 2: and Rich you said this off the Aaron, I agree
Speaker 2: with you. It's like a breakup. Sometimes it's not just
Speaker 2: that one thing or that one fight that led you
Speaker 2: to the breakup. It's the collection of things. If you
Speaker 2: think it is one thing, by all means, let us
Speaker 2: know because there's so many reasons as to why I
Speaker 2: think the NBA has left a bad taste.
Speaker 1: In our mouth.
Speaker 2: I think a lot of times in a breakup, someone
Speaker 2: will ask you like, oh, why'd you guys ended what happened?
Speaker 2: And they're expecting some monumental like yeah, I caught her cheating,
Speaker 2: or like uh you know, uh, you know she was
Speaker 2: terrible to me. You always think there's some type of
Speaker 2: monumental reason as to why the breakup happened. Yeah, sometimes
Speaker 2: it's like ten little things add up. And right now
Speaker 2: I have a list of some NBA things that I
Speaker 2: think all compiled for years people have argued about load management.
Speaker 2: In fact, it have to be you said, you said
Speaker 2: the other day you looked at a Lakers lineup that
Speaker 2: you couldn't believe was on the floor, bunch and nobody's from.
Speaker 1: Nowhereville when they were playing the Spurs.
Speaker 10: Danny G Yeah, I don't have that. I don't have
Speaker 10: the line up in front of me. It was all
Speaker 10: the bench players. Yeah, that normally would go in in
Speaker 10: the fourth quarter during a blowout. Those were the starters.
Speaker 10: Sent me the starters, he was like, and I was like,
Speaker 10: who the hell is that? And again Lebron's out because
Speaker 10: it was a Kobe we never heard of.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so.
Speaker 1: Load management, all these injuries, all the time.
Speaker 2: You got fans going there, spending money to see their
Speaker 2: favorite players, and you're taking that risk are they playing
Speaker 2: or not. We had a buddy from out of town
Speaker 2: in the studio the other day and luckily Lebron played
Speaker 2: that night. But there was like a you know, a
Speaker 2: feeling of is even playing.
Speaker 1: There's no Luca. I mean, it's never going to be
Speaker 1: a full line up.
Speaker 10: Here was the Lakers starters versus the Spurs, Kobe Buffkin,
Speaker 10: Luke Canard, Jake La Ravia, Ruey and Jackson hay So
Speaker 10: Ruy Okay but the rest, Uh, yeah, you ever heard
Speaker 10: of Kobe Buffkin.
Speaker 1: That's the LA Laker, Kobe Blumkin.
Speaker 7: Oh.
Speaker 1: And you know what, here's I know Rich.
Speaker 2: You know we were talking about this before the show,
Speaker 2: and I know you wrote down a bunch of reasons
Speaker 2: and load management has to be a top one just
Speaker 2: rubs people the wrong way, and we get it.
Speaker 1: How about this?
Speaker 2: I saw something else too, and I agree completely. I
Speaker 2: saw a theory against social media theory, but I agree
Speaker 2: with it, and it was have young NBA players forgotten
Speaker 2: how to celebrate? Is it a young athlete sort of thing?
Speaker 2: Or is it just in the NBA where you see
Speaker 2: so much fire? Like the most fire and fury we've
Speaker 2: seen recently was that brawl that we were talking about
Speaker 2: the other day. But for example, when the Oklahoma City
Speaker 2: Thunder won last year, there was like no celebration. They
Speaker 2: like high five of each other, They like they won
Speaker 2: a random game in May.
Speaker 1: Are we lying? Are we lying?
Speaker 2: How could we be excited about something when they don't
Speaker 2: even seem excited about it?
Speaker 1: What about this? How about the legends always putting down
Speaker 1: today's game? That doesn't help.
Speaker 2: That's another one that that's another thing I want we
Speaker 2: ad one more. Not that we care about awards that much,
Speaker 2: but like the MVP, the MVP is going to be
Speaker 2: someone that doesn't deserve it because don't the new rules
Speaker 2: d energy not allow someone to even be a possibility
Speaker 2: if they haven't played a certain number of games.
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, Braun does not qualify, like.
Speaker 2: To certain people that are like, oh, it didn't even
Speaker 2: qualify anymore. So is there one thing for you or
Speaker 2: is it just a collection of things? Do you have
Speaker 2: Lebron fatigue? Like what is it? Because the truth is
Speaker 2: we all love basketball. We want to watch the NBA.
Speaker 2: You know what it feels like rich, It feels like
Speaker 2: Stranger Things like finishing the last season for me, Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I want to watch, but there's something preventing me from
Speaker 2: caring enough.
Speaker 1: You like, oh tonight to night.
Speaker 2: And then you sit down and you start scrolling through
Speaker 2: other stuff on Netflix, like no, I came here to
Speaker 2: watch the final Stranger Thing season and you end up
Speaker 2: watching like the New Bark Crusher show. Was it one
Speaker 2: thing for you or just a collection of things? There's
Speaker 2: more things we could add to the list. Oh you
Speaker 2: know what if you want to be to quote one
Speaker 2: of my favorite movie with Disney Movies and my kids
Speaker 2: wreck it, Ralph, if you want to be fixed Felix, Hey,
Speaker 2: if you were fixing Felix, how we fixing the NBA?
Speaker 1: What is the fix that's needed? I got one, but
Speaker 1: it's too late now.
Speaker 2: If some monster trade did go down before the deadline,
Speaker 2: I think we would have got a lot more buzz.
Speaker 1: For the NBA.
Speaker 2: I think Yannis, especially like Yannis Yanis yannest the fact
Speaker 2: that he ended up staying. I appreciate the loyalty, but
Speaker 2: it was really anti climacting. Yeah, so you know what
Speaker 2: your thoughts? How would you quote fix it Felix eight seven, seven,
Speaker 2: nine nine on Fox, we'll take your feedback next the NBA,
Speaker 2: A bunch of little things seem to be adding up,
Speaker 2: and it feels like it's in a little trouble right now.
Speaker 2: And it's not just us because I saw Dan Patrick,
Speaker 2: I saw Rich Eyes, and I think I saw Nick
Speaker 2: Wright had like his qualm saying he had a good suggestion.
Speaker 1: But we'll go over later. But all that and more
Speaker 1: NBA thoughts will do it next year on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2: Dan Buyer's got your update in just a few minutes.
Speaker 2: But the question is Fox Sports Radio Nation, is the
Speaker 2: NBA in trouble and why?
Speaker 1: What do they need to do?
Speaker 2: If you were to fix it, what's your solution. Let's uh,
Speaker 2: you know, let's solve eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 2: And if there was a problem, yo, I'll solve it
Speaker 2: with life in the Fox Sports Radio studio. And have
Speaker 2: you ever wiped with a piece of dry toilet paper
Speaker 2: rich and wondered is it as good as against just
Speaker 2: not switched to Life changing wet extra large fleshable dude
Speaker 2: wipes because wetter just cleans better. Vailed on Amazon and
Speaker 2: all major retailers nationwide. Dudewipes best clean pants down. All right,
Speaker 2: let's go to your feedback right now at eight seven
Speaker 2: seven nine nine on Fox.
Speaker 1: Whether or not the NBA is in trouble, that's for
Speaker 1: you to decide.
Speaker 2: I haven't even mentioned I think the number one it's
Speaker 2: either load management or the fact that everybody in the
Speaker 2: league thinks they're Steph Curry. I'm not the guy who's
Speaker 2: saying Steph Curry ruined the game, or as you would say, ruined.
Speaker 2: But when everyone's down up threes, go to any playground
Speaker 2: in the country, you'll see the impact Steph Curry had
Speaker 2: on the league. Everyone's dowing up threes. It changes the
Speaker 2: game and it's less fun as a result, because not
Speaker 2: everybody is Steph Curry. So that's that's an obvious obvious reason?
Speaker 1: Is that the reason? Or is there more? Is there
Speaker 1: a way you could fix it?
Speaker 9: Let us know?
Speaker 10: You know what, though, Covino, I think the youngsters would
Speaker 10: rather see threes be shot up than like a lot
Speaker 10: of defense that the Thunder play. And you know what
Speaker 10: I'm saying, Like the Thunder haven't won the NBA title
Speaker 10: by jacking up tons of threes.
Speaker 2: I think you said something that I want. I hate
Speaker 2: giving you credit, but why give me the credit? Bro?
Speaker 2: The the vibe of excitement isn't there when a team
Speaker 2: is winning. They're the they're all too cool, like just
Speaker 2: gentle high fives or like that.
Speaker 1: I'm not saying.
Speaker 2: I'm not seeing like a passion level or rivalries or feuds.
Speaker 2: Give me the feud in the NBA right now, give
Speaker 2: me the flight to fight a few nights ago. So
Speaker 2: they are fine and suspended. I'm like Joe, they should
Speaker 2: be giving them high fives and bonus. So what's the feudal,
Speaker 2: the most excitement I've seen in the NBA, most most
Speaker 2: passion and fury I've seen in months.
Speaker 1: And you told me, like, you can name other sports.
Speaker 2: And tell me sweet division rivals or you know, legacy rivalries.
Speaker 2: Give me one of the NBA right now that excites you,
Speaker 2: like who's playing who? And you're like, oh, I gotta one.
Speaker 2: Thunder and Spurs is what NBA fans like to see?
Speaker 3: That easy?
Speaker 2: You know, those are your two teams that you feel
Speaker 2: like would be the favorites out of the West. But
Speaker 2: is that really any bad blooder history there? We're trying
Speaker 2: to learn though, but we shouldn't be talking more about
Speaker 2: how dominant the Pistons have been playing, how scary they
Speaker 2: seem to be in the NBA. But instead we're talking
Speaker 2: about Olympic sex. Right, So what is it about the
Speaker 2: NBA that's that's turned you off? How do we fix it?
Speaker 2: And by the way, we're not saying, hey, we're done
Speaker 2: with the NBA. Hell no, I want to love the NBA.
Speaker 2: I want to get back into it. We want you
Speaker 2: to feel the same way. So let's chop it up,
Speaker 2: Let's get to the phones, let's say what's up. Eight, seven,
Speaker 2: seven ninety nine. How many people in Olympic village you
Speaker 2: think have said keep the medal on, just the medal, just.
Speaker 1: Sany g Who do we got? Man?
Speaker 10: Let's start in the state where basketball was invented, Massachusetts.
Speaker 10: James is on what's up James?
Speaker 1: You know what James?
Speaker 8: Hey, guys, I think I think it's the cynicality. I
Speaker 8: think that, uh, you took away the pin cali out
Speaker 8: of the game.
Speaker 7: And it's literally taking the competitive fire as of somebody.
Speaker 9: Yeah, we've all been out there, We've all we've all
Speaker 9: been out there.
Speaker 7: You know, you go and mess around, you want to
Speaker 7: go shoot around? Yeah, whatever, whatever.
Speaker 1: When Danny G said that what Danny G said.
Speaker 2: But I think the kids want to see these threes,
Speaker 2: And maybe he's right because they're they're playing that way
Speaker 2: and that's what they like. But when you're doing that,
Speaker 2: you are taking away the physicality from the game. You're
Speaker 2: not driving to the lane, you're shooting the ball. Hey,
Speaker 2: if I'm playing a game of pickup Danny G, and
Speaker 2: I don't want to get hurt, and I don't really
Speaker 2: want to break a sweat.
Speaker 1: I'm shooting too. I'm the old guy in the court.
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's just hard to put your finger on right
Speaker 10: now because SGA drives to the hoop all the time
Speaker 10: and people have something to say about that because they
Speaker 10: think he's trying to draw too many fouls.
Speaker 2: I'll be honest, like, you know me, I always got
Speaker 2: an answer for I always have an answer. But much
Speaker 2: like Kanye's Sway back in the day, I don't got
Speaker 2: the answer to Sway, I don't got the I don't
Speaker 2: have the answer.
Speaker 1: I wish I had the answer. It's like why I'm
Speaker 1: less interested?
Speaker 2: You know what?
Speaker 1: Else?
Speaker 2: I'm really trying to pick r buzz. I've tried to
Speaker 2: pinpoint the man I really have. I've tried to say
Speaker 2: to myself, what is it that I'm not rarely trying
Speaker 2: to find an NBA game on a Tuesday night when
Speaker 2: I'm chilling at home.
Speaker 1: What is it like?
Speaker 2: Or there's a lot of buzz on social media too,
Speaker 2: because I try to follow it, like the trends and
Speaker 2: what's going on and what are people saying about it?
Speaker 1: And there's a buzz that there.
Speaker 2: It's a young man's game, so it's really not it's
Speaker 2: not relatable to anyone in their not even that's old.
Speaker 1: But in their forties. For the most part, it's like
Speaker 1: they're marketing more to a younger mindset. Is that possible.
Speaker 1: I don't know what's up debut.
Speaker 5: I think, to me, what changed for our generation? And
Speaker 5: then this isn't for the younger generation. But our generation
Speaker 5: was when we started comparing Lebron and Michael Jordan and
Speaker 5: Jordan's six rings, which put all the importance of the
Speaker 5: NBA season on the two months at the end of
Speaker 5: the year the player, and then for some years during
Speaker 5: Lebron's time, it was only the finals, like we didn't
Speaker 5: even care. The regular season didn't matter, The first couple
Speaker 5: of rounds didn't matter. The Cavs weren't gonna be losing
Speaker 5: the and I'm talking about a second stint that he
Speaker 5: that he had in Cleveland. They were bound to meet
Speaker 5: the Warriors in the finals, right, So, like those seasons
Speaker 5: were just complete washes because we felt like we knew
Speaker 5: what the ending was going to be. And I've I
Speaker 5: had the Bucks season of them winning a title. But honestly,
Speaker 5: it's difficult to come back from that to find it
Speaker 5: exciting again. When we put so much weight on rings
Speaker 5: in championships, in the playoffs, you're so dead.
Speaker 2: On because it's the opposite of the NFL. We're week
Speaker 2: to week, we are so invested in the outcomes of
Speaker 2: week seven in the NFL.
Speaker 1: Meanwhile, you're right. The Lebron and.
Speaker 2: MJ comparisons put such an overemphasis on is he gonna
Speaker 2: catch MJ?
Speaker 1: Six rings?
Speaker 3: Guess what?
Speaker 2: John Stockton and Carl Malone never won a ring. I
Speaker 2: really liked watching them. Patrick Gwey in the Knicks, and
Speaker 2: John Starks and Jimmy Mason, they were great. Reggie Miller
Speaker 2: and the in the out of Pacers and Barkley Ainge
Speaker 2: and Marley and that team with the Suns. They never
Speaker 2: won anything. Sean Kemp and the Sonics, Portland Trailblazers, or
Speaker 2: Clyde the Glide. There were teams you like watching play
Speaker 2: that never won anything.
Speaker 1: They were battling.
Speaker 2: You watched it, but you watched them throughout the season
Speaker 2: and still enjoyed it. We almost had this emphasis that
Speaker 2: if you're not gonna win the NBA Finals or like
Speaker 2: catch someone, then it does.
Speaker 1: What's the point.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it also feels like nothing matters till the playoffs.
Speaker 2: It also feels like nothing matters until the last two
Speaker 2: minutes of the game, it feels like nobody's playing defense,
Speaker 2: and that's the stuff we're used to, right, you know,
Speaker 2: I see some of the scores, Danny G. Sometimes I'm
Speaker 2: just you know, seeing looking at the scores. They like
Speaker 2: All Star Games scores, So it's like, is anyone playing defense?
Speaker 2: They're just hitting threes the whole time.
Speaker 10: I bet you guys couldn't name the rookie who's on
Speaker 10: the heels of Cooper flag right now for the Rookie
Speaker 10: of the Year race. And I think the disconnect between
Speaker 10: us and the youngsters in the NBA is before when
Speaker 10: they stayed at one college program for all long time,
Speaker 10: we kind of built a rapport with them and followed them,
Speaker 10: and that doesn't happen anymore. Now they come right to
Speaker 10: the NBA.
Speaker 5: I think that's a I think that's a way in
Speaker 5: that maybe the generational thing too, that's happened for a while.
Speaker 10: Yeah, No, like there's just I think that's still part
Speaker 10: of the disconnect between us and the brand new players
Speaker 10: coming in.
Speaker 5: I almost consider men's college basketball a different sport than
Speaker 5: the NBA.
Speaker 1: Agreed, Yeah, agreed.
Speaker 2: The way you watched NFL, the way you watch college players,
Speaker 2: and you anticipate a product the way you anticipate a
Speaker 2: college star football player getting into the NFL.
Speaker 1: I don't feel that.
Speaker 2: I don't feel that same way about college hoops going
Speaker 2: to the NBA.
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's so much If you're a twenty two year
Speaker 5: old in college basketball, you're probably not even wanted in
Speaker 5: the NBA like they would have wanted you at eighteen
Speaker 5: and nineteen and twenty years old. The twenty two year
Speaker 5: old senior going to the NBA is such a rare
Speaker 5: case because of the needs of both leagues, And to
Speaker 5: Danny's point, maybe that's part of it. Maybe that's so
Speaker 5: that's of the NBA, with the type of player that
Speaker 5: they're bringing in that we just aren't familiar with. That
Speaker 5: could be that could be a gateway or an entry
Speaker 5: point why we're not interested. But I think it's an
Speaker 5: enormous question. I don't think that you can pinpoint one
Speaker 5: thing on why the NBA is.
Speaker 2: Well, the reason we bring it up is the NFL
Speaker 2: Blues are here and we're trying to shift our focus
Speaker 2: and I'm more excited about the WBC and that starts
Speaker 2: next month, so we got to get excited about the NBA. Well,
Speaker 2: let's go to dan buy for an update. We'll see
Speaker 2: what's going on in the world of sports. It's up dbak.
Speaker 5: It's a final now from the Winter Olympics. US men's
Speaker 5: hockey team getting their win, getting a win and their
Speaker 5: opener against Latvia. Five to one was the final. Canada
Speaker 5: beat Chuck. Yet earlier today five to nothing. Chloe Kim
Speaker 5: looking for her third straight gold in the women's halfpipe.
Speaker 5: You know the American snowboarder fell short. She won a
Speaker 5: silver in today's event. Speaking of the NBA, Jaron Jackson,
Speaker 5: junior of the Jazz We'll missed the rest of the season,
Speaker 5: had a had surgery to remove growth in his knee.
Speaker 5: Team expects him to be fine for training camp. Spurs
Speaker 5: Guardier and Fox is replacing Bucks forward Giannison Tetokumpo for

Speaker 5: is at four under Scotty Scheffler is at even par.
Speaker 5: North Carolina freshman star Caleb Williams out indefinitely with a
Speaker 5: fracture in his non shooting hand. Back to you, guys,
Speaker 5: it sucks when you share a name with another star.
Speaker 1: Huh, Caleb, So.
Speaker 5: Did I say Williams? I'm sorry, Caleb Wilson, I'm sorry that.
Speaker 5: I'm glad you said it. I'm still stuck on he says, toune,

Speaker 2: not that excited.
Speaker 7: Can I get you? Man?
Speaker 2: That's how the NBA is grew up loving it. Great
Speaker 2: star players, great athletes.
Speaker 1: That's how it.
Speaker 2: Feels right at the moment, at least for us. And
Speaker 2: we're not alone because I feel the buzz. And let
Speaker 2: me tell you, I'm not one of the old old
Speaker 2: heads that are like ah, back in the day, those
Speaker 2: guys would whoop them today. In fact, I feel like
Speaker 2: if you got today's All Star team, they'd whoop previous
Speaker 2: generations just because humans have evolved and these.
Speaker 1: Guys play with a different athleticism.
Speaker 2: Well, we got two phone calls, wrap it up, and
Speaker 2: then old school in fifty hits. It's Cavino and Rich

Speaker 1: quick phone calls? Then old school?
Speaker 3: Yeah, sty really quick.
Speaker 1: Really really quick.
Speaker 3: They've been holding Larry in Vegas, Larry, make it snappy?
Speaker 1: What up Larry's going on?
Speaker 8: Man?
Speaker 1: Henybody's up, Lair.
Speaker 7: I'm gonna say, someone addressed the elephant in the room.
Speaker 7: You know what it really is? I think it is, Well,
Speaker 7: it's too many of europe stars. All the Stars is
Speaker 7: really like Luca Jokids and things like that. In America.
Speaker 7: There's not really a poles allizing American star that really
Speaker 7: could just hold that spot like that.
Speaker 3: Lebron Larry Larry.
Speaker 2: That's not a crazy thought because it like when you
Speaker 2: when you say out loud, you're like, oh, I hope
Speaker 2: I'm not saying anything wrong, but you're right, there's no
Speaker 2: real American star, black white, Asian cur You know, it
Speaker 2: doesn't matter when you when European players have taken over.
Speaker 2: You know, I always thought that hockey there was a
Speaker 2: disconnect because the stars were very foreign sounding to.
Speaker 1: Us, like all the names are hard to pronounce.
Speaker 2: There is something to be said about European big goonish
Speaker 2: type of guys, like a yok taken over. Unfortunately or
Speaker 2: for whatever reason, it's a little less relatable, and it
Speaker 2: proves what we started this conversation with. Much like a
Speaker 2: failed relationship, it's not just one thing, it's a collection
Speaker 2: of things.
Speaker 3: All right, Rob and Tulsa thirty seconds.
Speaker 7: Buddy, all right, guys.
Speaker 8: So, yeah, the players art is easy to as they
Speaker 8: used to be, and we can't get to know him
Speaker 8: because they're not playing college and they're they're getting paid
Speaker 8: incredible amounts of money and they're just not relatable like.
Speaker 9: They used to be.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not relatable. It's hard to know him.
Speaker 2: And I think maybe because they're media trained in savvy
