Lebron injures 7 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,760 Speaker 1: his ankle, and of course the big talk is where's 8 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:27,120 Speaker 1: he standing in the MVP race? Now LaMelo ball breaks 9 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: his rest, likely done for the rest of the season, 10 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 1: and so is my fandom viewership for the Charlotte Hornets 11 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 1: Sweet sixteen.

Okay, do you have 21 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: all four final four teams alive? No? Well, I don't think. 22 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: I mean, that'd be really hard to have, you know, 23 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: all four. If he did pick Illinois, who I mean? 24 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,279 Speaker 1: I think Illinois knocked most people out. If you had Houston. 25 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,160 Speaker 1: Oh wait a minute, that difficult table four? Dan, Oh my, 26 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: oh my, Ben, Yes, Seaton, yes, Seaton. Do you some 27 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: of us just uh, I don't know.

Gonzaga, Michigan, Houston, and 30 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: Baylor one. Okay, okay, all right, you couldn't really go 31 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: out on a limb there, But all right, you still 32 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: got your guys.

See. Yeah, Celebrity Bracket Challenge. You 36 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: can go to Dan Patrick dot com. If you're one 37 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: of the ten thousand people listeners fans who signed up, 38 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 1: you can go see how you're faring there. Interesting Jim 39 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 1: Parsons from the Big Bang Theory Sheldon. He is a 40 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: big Houston Cougar fan. So if Houston goes a long way, 41 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,799 Speaker 1: Jim Parsons is going to do well. All Right, We're 42 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: gonna stay with that Pole question. McLevin. We gonna switch 43 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: it up. I like that Porter or Moser question. We 44 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: were asking him before the loyal at Chicago coach will 45 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: he take would you take another job if you were 46 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: him that? If you did that, Paul, do you have 47 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: to name the job because I guess there's a difference 48 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,639 Speaker 1: between Indiana and Marquette. Oh yeah, yeah, I mean if 49 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: Indiana calls, you certainly have to listen to that. Absolutely. 50 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,079 Speaker 1: What about like a Minnesota or a Marquette Now that's 51 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: he feels more lateral. Yeah, I mean it has something 52 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: special there at Loyola. Now he's losing his two best players, 53 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: and one of those players will join us coming up 54 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: about twenty minutes. But you go where you're comfortable. I 55 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: think we as fans or the analysts, the experts, we 56 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: want to tell you what to do. If he loves 57 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: it there, and you know, you just don't want to 58 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 1: be in a situation where now it's a letdown if 59 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: you don't get to the lad eight or Sweet sixteen 60 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: or the Final four, because what you're doing there's luck, 61 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: but there is a whole lot of talent that goes 62 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: into that and the right players, the right system and 63 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: be able to do that again. You know, Brad Stevens 64 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: left Butler. We haven't heard from Butler since then. It's 65 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: really difficult to do what those coaches did at smaller 66 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: schools like Mark Few. What he did at Gonzaga was 67 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 1: a pleasant surprise, and then the nation looked at Gonzaga 68 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: tournament time, and then Gonzaga would always do damage to 69 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: your bracket because you never bought into Gunzaga. Now everybody's 70 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: buying into Gunzaga. Now we expect Gunzaga to be playing 71 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: for a national championship. It's when you build up those 72 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: expectations and then you're letting people down if you don't 73 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: go to the final four, play in the national title game, 74 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: or win a national title. At some point that comes 75 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: back and works against you. Yeah. Point the top part 76 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: about Porter Moser at Loyola. The truth of the thing is, 77 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: I know the area Loyal is not a hotbed of 78 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 1: basketball as far as fan base in an intense fan support, 79 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: and it's also a private school that factors in academics. First, 80 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 1: he's the highest paid person at the University of Porter Moser. 81 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: It makes one point one million, The president makes eight 82 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: hundred thousand. They can't give him three million dollars a year. 83 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: It won't happen. He's gonna be capped out financially at Loyola. 84 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 1: And if he gets the Indiana job, it's going to 85 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 1: start with a three. Because the former coach is making 86 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: two point six. He could call Indiana tomorrow and get 87 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: three million a year. That's tripling a salary and that's 88 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 1: hard to ignore. I haven't heard his name yet. Mike Woodson, 89 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: former Indiana player coached in the NBA. I'm hearing Mike 90 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: Woodson's name has been brought into the mix. But I 91 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 1: think if you're Indiana, you wait till the tournament's over. 92 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: There's no reason to be mentioning anybody's name. Be fair 93 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: to those who might be candidates, including Loyala's head coach, 94 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: But are you getting an Indiana guy for Indiana? That's 95 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: another thing. You know, Michigan has gone down this road before. 96 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: It's worked, and then it hasn't worked. Basketball wise, so far, 97 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 1: it's working. Football wise, it has not worked. But as 98 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: Indiana looking for an Indiana guy or a Bob Night guy, 99 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: that's what I was told. But Brad Stevens has not 100 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: taken the job. I know that. Hey, you can go 101 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: home again. I'm not leaving the Celtics job. It's the 102 00:05:55,320 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: Boston Celtics job. To go back to Indiana now I 103 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: can visit. I don't have to go back. Riding off 104 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 1: the Lakers because of Lebron's high ankle spring would probably 105 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: be a mistake because if he and Anthony Davis are 106 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: healthy by the playoffs, LA is still going to be 107 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: there playing defending their title. But for now, you want 108 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: to see how these injuries develop. Anthony Davis been out 109 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 1: for a while, Lebron could be out three weeks a 110 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: month with a high ankle spring. You know, but one 111 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: storyline never changes, or does it change, because for some reason, 112 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: the media is paying closer attention to the MVP race 113 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: more than ever, and it's only because Lebron James is 114 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: in the mix. If Lebron James was not playing well 115 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: or was hurt this year, we would not be doing 116 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 1: day by day, certainly week by week who is the 117 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: front runner for the MVP. Lebron gets clicks, that's all 118 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,520 Speaker 1: this is. So when you see these shows, do Lebron 119 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: James f MVP? Like? The bigger picture is not the MVP. 120 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: The bigger picture is how long are you mount where 121 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: are you going to be in the seatings in the West, 122 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 1: and how healthy are you going to be at the playoffs? 123 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: Come playoff time? Are you going to do anything at 124 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: the trade deadline? That's what we should focus on, But 125 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: that's not what members of the media are doing because 126 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: Lebron became a slight Vegas favorite after Joe lmbid got 127 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 1: injured and now it's a wide open field. Now Damian Lillard, 128 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: Greek freak, James Harden Luca in the picture. And when 129 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 1: Lebron and Ebide get well soon than of course they'll 130 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: be back in and then there'll be a comeback story 131 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: and can they be the MVPs? But the MVP race 132 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: is probably going to get a lot of attention, far 133 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: more attention than it really deserves. And I bring this 134 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: up because it feels like every week in the NFL 135 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 1: was a referendum on who's the MVP. I'm not sure why, 136 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: but it does give you a talking point. You can 137 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: bring in marquee players or names that get clicks. You 138 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: know the reason why it was a topic for a while. 139 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: It felt like because Tom Brady was in it. Tom 140 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 1: Brady MVP, question mark, Patrick Mahomes quite, Aaron Rodgers quite? 141 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: Then you know, we don't You know when you start 142 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: to look through it, sift through it and go, okay, 143 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: who's a legitimate MVP candidate? And even now with the NBA, 144 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: Damian Lillard should be an MVP candidate. Prior to Lebron 145 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: getting hurt, Joe Lmb, It's like, who's the MVP now? Well, 146 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 1: the Greek freak can't win it three times in a row? Okay, 147 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 1: why not? But the media is not going to tell you, well, 148 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: we've already told that story and he's really good in 149 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: the regular season and on the postseason. What else are 150 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: you going to write about? The Greek freak? May not 151 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: sound fair because it's not fair. And then you're gonna 152 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: bring in, oh, Joe LMB can't b MVP. What if 153 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: your team is terrible when you're out, are you showing 154 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,800 Speaker 1: how valuable you are to your team? But Lebron being 155 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: out the bigger picture is could this be a good 156 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: thing for Lebron because now he's forced to rest because 157 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: I think he got caught up in I want to 158 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: be one of the oldest. He might maybe be the 159 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 1: oldest MVP ever. It's pretty close there, but I think 160 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: Kareem is up there. But I think it's really important 161 00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: to him to say two guys who are almost half 162 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: his age. This is just a reminder. This is his reminder. 163 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: This is his Jordan documentary. I want to remind people. 164 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 1: And if I'm Lebron, get the next title, like the 165 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 1: next title that gets you really close to Michael Jordan. 166 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: If people use that as well. It comes down to 167 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: how many championships you have. Okay, I don't care how 168 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,199 Speaker 1: about how many MVPs. I care about how many championships. 169 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: And Michael there were two years where he didn't win 170 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 1: the MVP. Karl Malone did, and Charles Berkeley who won 171 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: the titles those year those years Michael did. And if 172 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: I'm Lebron, Okay, I'm sitting down for three weeks. Now 173 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: when I come back in a shortened season, now you 174 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: got to mess with me. Now we're going to be 175 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: ready to go. But this is an unintentional rest for 176 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: Lebron James. This is rested development in my opinion. Thank you, 177 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: Paul deep Cut, Thank you, Yes mclove. You know, we 178 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: always sort of give the MVP then the best player 179 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: on the number one seed, but the number one seeds 180 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: are probably gonna be the Nets and the Jazz. That's 181 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: gonna be weird because it Harden only had half a 182 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: season and the Jazz don't really have anybody in the list. 183 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 1: I know that people are pushing that storyline of James 184 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 1: Harden with Durant being out, and I don't vote anymore, 185 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: but I've said, I'm on record, I would not vote 186 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 1: for James Harden from VP with what he did to 187 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: Houston during the same season. I would not vote for him. 188 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: He's a great player, he's playing wonderful, but I gotta 189 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 1: I gotta have the totality of an entire season here, 190 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: not just hey, you've been great since you've gone to 191 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: the next he has been and with Durant still out, 192 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,839 Speaker 1: you know, Steph Curry was my pick for MVP. I 193 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: don't think they're gonna be good enough. The Joker his 194 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 1: team is like fifth seed right now, and I know 195 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 1: I'm already spending more time on this than it deserves. 196 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: But it's more about what is Lebron gonna be like 197 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: at the end of the season, not in three weeks 198 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: when he comes back and trying to reclaim his place 199 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: in the MVP race. Yeah, mclubn. You know the thing 200 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 1: about Jannis is that a legitimate thing? Though, like our 201 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: voters disappointed they keep voting him MVP and he's not 202 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: even getting to the conference final. I think it is now. 203 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: I've been told that you know that's not the case, 204 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: or you can't be speaking for I had one voter 205 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: who said, hey, I heard you say that you can't 206 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: speak for all of us, and I said, okay, but 207 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: I'm still going to because I can't call out individuals 208 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: because I don't know why you're voting or not voting 209 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: for the Greek freak. If the Greek Freak is still 210 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: the best player in basketball regular season, then voting for 211 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: the MVP. But is he really the best player in basketball? 212 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: If they can't you know, he can't beat the heat 213 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, He's obviously not the best player in basketball. 214 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: It's the regular season. If you gave out the MVP 215 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 1: after the postseason, history would be changed greatly because he 216 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't have any It feels like, oh, last year would 217 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 1: have been Lebron for sure. Yes, yes, but that's the 218 00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 1: reason why the topic comes up, is because it's Lebron. 219 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,079 Speaker 1: If Lebron was not playing this year. When Lebron retires, 220 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: I don't know what some of these shows are going 221 00:12:55,520 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: to do when Lebron retires. LEBRONI little his son, Yeah, yeah, 222 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: maybe is it like a year and a half. I 223 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,560 Speaker 1: think we gotta wait. Not as good as his dad 224 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: question markin Yeah, I just but if you want to 225 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 1: give it to James Harden, give it to James Harden, 226 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: because it doesn't it doesn't mean anything to me when 227 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: I'm watching. I want to know how valuable you are 228 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: at the end of the regular season going into the postseason, 229 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: then what you do in the postseason, because I'd certainly 230 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: rather win that finals MVP than I would a regular 231 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: season MVP eight seven seven three d P Show Email 232 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: address DP dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle at DPS show. 233 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: We'll talk to Loyal's center Cameron Cruttwig. He's quite a character. 234 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 1: I guess he does impersonations. He's got his harmonica with him. 235 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: He loves the same music that Fritzie does. What could 236 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: go wrong? He's just going to join us coming up, 237 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 1: and it reminds me of the Joker. He does remind 238 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: me of Joki. You're kind of watching when you go, 239 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: I don't know how he does it. And I said 240 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: the same thing two years ago when I'm watching him, going, 241 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: I don't know how he does it. There are certain 242 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 1: guys when you watch play or you're on the playground 243 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: and you go, I don't know how he does it. 244 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: Not fast, can't jump, not quick, but he knows how 245 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: to play basketball. Yeah, they showed the Pelicans beat the 246 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: Nuggets last night and the highlight Packers head Zion flying 247 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 1: around dunk. Then they shall Jokers with an eight foot jumper. Yes, yes, 248 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: and you know it counts the same. It counted two 249 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 1: points mclovin'. So I keep trying to tell you, Oh, 250 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: the Joker's so boring. Okay, his job is nothing. They 251 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: don't give you, you know, degree of difficulty. They don't go, 252 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: you know what we're gonna give you this. By the way, 253 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: Daryl Morey is the GM for the seventy six ers, 254 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: and he must I know he listened to the show, 255 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: but I don't know if he heard this where Pauli 256 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: was saying, what if we made the three pointer a 257 00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: two and a half pointer? Where can we diminish the 258 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: number of three point shots? Well, if you devalue it, 259 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: but you can't have an announcer going Lillard from two 260 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: and a half point ring like it'll take a while 261 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: to catch on. Yeah, Steph Curry with the two and 262 00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: a half or Daryl Morey suggested that we have a 263 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: two and a half point shot. Yeah. Point. This is 264 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: if you look at the math of this, the analytics 265 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 1: of it. This is a way to devalue the three 266 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: point shot where only the really good three point shooters 267 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: will be allowed to shoot. Coaches will not allow some 268 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 1: guy shooting twenty eight percent to shoot threes anymore, and 269 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: so that guy will have to go back inside and 270 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: change his game. But we can't. It's just two and 271 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: a half point. Contest will be legit. Everyone will tune 272 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: Curry for two and a half. Yeah, this is the 273 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 1: most self serving proposal I've ever heard. Daryl mores in 274 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: Houston and dominates for the three gets to Philly, whereas 275 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: two stars can't hit the three and beat in Ben 276 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: Simmons and now he's like devalue the three. I mean, 277 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: and Bee could hit a couple. Yes, And more importantly, 278 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: what's the hand gesture these players are supposed to get 279 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: when they hit the three. That's going to be very conversed. 280 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: It's a it's a yeah, you're right. Yeah. Well, the 281 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: other options that people have thrown out there is increasing 282 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: the size of the court and making the line deeper, 283 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: which will not That'll just cost millions of dollars and 284 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: take out the first row of seats, which owners will 285 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: not do. Yeah, two and a half. But I always 286 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 1: wondered if you could widen the floor, And I think 287 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 1: we'll get to that point where we have the conversation 288 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: because it's a perimeter based game and the players are 289 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: so big, Like I'm wondering, there's certain players it feels 290 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: like they can barely get their shoes in between the 291 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: out of bounds and the three point line on the side, 292 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: Like I wonder if Shaq could get his feet in there. 293 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: They're bob lan ear. But I think widening the floor, 294 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: you know, the Lengthen I go back to the seventies 295 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:05,879 Speaker 1: when there was a conversation about raising the basket to 296 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: eleven feet. I don't want to see that. But that's 297 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: when you had big men who were dominating. I think 298 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: if you widen the floor, but the three point shots 299 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 1: not going anywhere? Yeah? Point, so the arc is twenty 300 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 1: three nine at the top, it's twenty two on the side. Yes, 301 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: so it's not even uniform. Yeah, but how bigger shocks feet? 302 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: They're twenty twos, aren't they? Shack could not He would 303 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: be on the line, wouldn't he right? Maybe close? Yes, 304 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: I think he's I think he's got signed twenty twos. 305 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: That's why Shock wasn't a great three point shooter from 306 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,479 Speaker 1: the corner. Yes, what's wrong with the three pointer? By 307 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: the way? He gets just to go back, Like, isn't 308 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: the game like kind of peeking? Right now? Everyone seems 309 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: to love it, but we need more mid range jumpers. 310 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: I don't understand. I all, if you give me movement, 311 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 1: I don't care if you have three point shooting, like 312 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: when the Warriors do it, well, there's movement, and I 313 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: love that. That's all I want to see with basketball 314 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: is movement, because baseball is dying because it has no movement. 315 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 1: None in between pitches. Even when you're trying to nobody 316 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:16,719 Speaker 1: puts the ball in play. That doesn't happen anymore. But 317 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna experiment where they're gonna try to 318 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 1: get more base running, you know, steals, they're they're they're 319 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 1: doing things in the lower minor leagues that they're gonna 320 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: try to get more movement in baseball because when you 321 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 1: go to a game, when you're watching at home, you 322 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 1: can always flip around when you sit there. It can 323 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: be a long afternoon. And I grew up loving baseball. 324 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: I like baseball. I don't love baseball now because it's 325 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: just all right, that's ninety seven, found ball, that's ninety nine. Oh, 326 00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 1: it's a home run. That's a strikeout, that's a strikeout, 327 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 1: that's a strikeout, that's a walk, strikeout, home run. I 328 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: think we see your point the way you described as 329 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: like it's just going and going. Yeah, but you don't 330 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,719 Speaker 1: like at the ballpark itself. You don't want the day 331 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: to be over quickly. I think in the ballpark experience, 332 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 1: but I think it's beer related and food related though 333 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: not game related. Yeah, but I mean I'm okay with 334 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 1: a two hour baseball game. Yeah, yeah, I'm a I'm 335 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: all right with that.

But a 393 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: quarantine thing kind of started in quarantine and just kind 394 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: of let let it run, you know, and now people 395 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 1: are falling in love with it. Yeah, what's not to 396 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: fall in love with? Does a coach give you grief 397 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:49,880 Speaker 1: about it. H No, No, not really. I mean back 398 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 1: in my freshman year, I was rocking the Mutton shops 399 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 1: during during the final four runs. So now now I 400 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: switched it up and went with the mustache. So I 401 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 1: don't know. It's just something fun to do and just 402 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 1: kind of adds to the to the lore, I guess, 403 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 1: to the aura that you are. Um, if somebody hasn't 404 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 1: seen your team play, how would you describe your style? Uh? Together, chemistry, 405 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: you know, we like to play together and play the 406 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 1: right way. Defense, tough, physical, Um, we talked a ton 407 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 1: about physical without following. Um. I think I think we 408 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: do a really good job of, you know, staying on 409 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: top of teams strengths and and trying to limit their strengths. 410 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:29,959 Speaker 1: And I think we did a great job against that. 411 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: The ALIGNI this weekend. Just trying to take away one 412 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: or two, you're not gonna be able to take away 413 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: their whole attack. I mean, they're they're too good. So 414 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: we try to limit their their use of ball screens. Um, 415 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: you know, trapped Io a lot in the ball screen, 416 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,199 Speaker 1: and um, you know, just try to work not to 417 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: let big Kofe try to catch the ball. In the 418 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 1: middle there. You know, sometimes it breaks down, but uh, 419 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: you know, we just we just gave our all. Do 420 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 1: you feel like underdogs? You know That's that's the funny thing. Um. 421 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: You know, maybe in twenty eighteen we kind of you know, 422 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 1: snuck up on some people and people were like, oh, 423 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 1: we don't you know, kind of underestimated us and stuff. 424 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: But now, no, it's no secret. You know, no one's 425 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: no one's underestimating us. And uh, you know when you 426 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: play the Ramblers, you're gonna you know, you're in for 427 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 1: a good game. And uh, you know we we I 428 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: don't really think we're underdogs anymore. You know, people are 429 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: starting to take notice of us, and especially you know, 430 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: all those feelings that people had in twenty eighteen, now 431 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: they're they're kind of coming back to life. And I'm 432 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: just happy and that we proved that, you know that 433 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,719 Speaker 1: that year wasn't a fluke. Um. You know, you hear 434 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: about so many teams like that coming out and and um, 435 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,199 Speaker 1: you know, you have a final four run, then you 436 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,360 Speaker 1: kind of just fade off into into the college basketball team. 437 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 1: But we've been able to sustain it. How many scholarship 438 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: offers did you have? I had about like third thirty 439 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: five scholarship offers coming out of high school. Nothing nothing 440 00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 1: from the Power five though. So definitely definitely kind of 441 00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: put a chip on my should there for sure. And 442 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 1: uh definitely you know that's the same with all these 443 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 1: guys that you know, Cambell, Loila. We all kind of 444 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,199 Speaker 1: have that chip on our shoulder. Um, you know, personally, 445 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 1: I felt that I could have played at the at 446 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: the highest level and um, you know, but but I 447 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: also wanted to go somewhere where I was a fit, 448 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 1: you know, so I could have I could have probably 449 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: I committed to Loila really early on my career, in 450 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: my high school career, before my senior year. I could 451 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,640 Speaker 1: have probably waited and played my senior year out and 452 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: I probably would have got a lot of offers just 453 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,400 Speaker 1: just you know, from big schools not getting the guys 454 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 1: that they wanted. But I wanted to go somewherehere you know, 455 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: they wanted me and I could make an impact, and um, 456 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 1: you know it worked out. How would you describe your 457 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 1: style itself? Uh? Like my playing yeah, my playing style, Yeah, 458 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 1: I mean I just think, uh, you know, high IQ 459 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: understand the game. You know, I'm not gonna beat anyone 460 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 1: with with blazing speed or you know, I'm not gonna 461 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 1: jump over anybody. But um, you know, there's so many 462 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 1: different ways to play the game of basketball. It's not 463 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 1: all about athleticism and speed and quickness. It's all you know, 464 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 1: understanding how other teams are playing, you know, understanding their coverages, 465 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,680 Speaker 1: understanding what this guy doesn't like and what he does like. Um, 466 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,199 Speaker 1: you know, being able to play. I feel like, you know, 467 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: I hate to kind of toot my own horn here, 468 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: but I feel like, you know, I'm making other guys 469 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: better on the floor. You know, I'm attracting a lot 470 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: of attention. Um, setting dudes up. Um, you know, it's 471 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: definitely positioned list in my book. I mean, you know, 472 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 1: I'm I'm listened as a center. But you know, for me, 473 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: basketball you got to be able to dribble, pass, and shoot. 474 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 1: So um, you know, I've always kind of been that 475 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: way ever since I was a kid. I was always 476 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: kind of like dribbling and passing and stuff. So you 477 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: kind of remind me of the joker joking. Yeah. Yeah, 478 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,919 Speaker 1: that's what a lot of people are saying right now. Um, 479 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: obviously he can, he can. He's that's funny. That you 480 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: say that because a lot of people are always you're 481 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:57,360 Speaker 1: like the college joker and stuff. Man, he's incredible. Um, 482 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: you know, I watch him. I watch him a lot, um, 483 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: you know, and he is incredible. The way he shoots 484 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 1: and his touch is unbelievable. I mean, um, just the 485 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: way he passes. He's always thinking one or two steps ahead, 486 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,239 Speaker 1: and that's something I kind of pride myself on, um 487 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 1: as far as you know, being able to see the 488 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: play maybe two three steps ahead than everyone else.

That dude is one real 652 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: He blended right in. I'm that's my hero. I really 653 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:56,280 Speaker 1: really like that kid. Bangs down on the inside, unselfish 654 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: and he tooted his own horn. When you got it, 655 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 1: talk about because twenty years down the line, it ain't 656 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 1: gonna be there no more. So you know, when you 657 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 1: got it, do what you do with it. Listen, that's 658 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 1: step Curry effect. Dan, It's becoming prominent that you know, 659 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 1: once you start shooting and your side has to go 660 00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:16,919 Speaker 1: seven for seventeen. Man, you've got to do something about that. 661 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: Those threes were not falling flood the a line. Not Yeah, 662 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 1: but you know, and thank you, Jeff. Here's the one 663 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: thing you have to understand when you're watching the styles 664 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 1: of play. Loyola had constant movement. Illinois did not. Illinois 665 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: it felt like there was a lot of dribbling. I 666 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 1: want to see movement and passing. And it goes back 667 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: to if you're old enough to remember Pete Carill at Princeton, 668 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 1: you know, Pete would always be a dangerous matchup in 669 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: the tournament and he was such a wonderful coach. It's 670 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 1: because there was movement, constant movement, backdoor passes. It's just 671 00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: to me, that's fun basketball. And it's not old school. 672 00:37:56,520 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: It shouldn't be old school. All it is is you 673 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,760 Speaker 1: just move. You're a lot tougher to guard when you're moving. 674 00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:06,760 Speaker 1: And Pete would always have a very intelligent roster getting 675 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 1: into Princeton and he would just have you moving constantly, 676 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,919 Speaker 1: backdoor cuts and they would be a matchup because it's 677 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 1: a really hard offense to kind of prepare for. And 678 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:23,440 Speaker 1: I see that with Loyola movement. But you're utilizing the 679 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 1: three point shot as well. Phil and Indiana. Phil. Always 680 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 1: great to have you back. Hey Dan, always a pleasure. 681 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:32,760 Speaker 1: My best of the weekend. And I you know, obviously 682 00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,760 Speaker 1: I'm partial because I only live twenty minutes from downtown Indie, 683 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,239 Speaker 1: but I just think the best of the weekend for 684 00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 1: me was how they've handled it. And my question to 685 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,319 Speaker 1: you is do you think this will set up down 686 00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:47,879 Speaker 1: the road? Well, the NCAA do kind of one site locations. 687 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 1: It seems like it's you know, logistically it's pretty smooth, 688 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: but I wanted to get your thoughts on that. Have 689 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 1: a great weekend. Thank you, Thank you Phil. I don't 690 00:38:56,200 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 1: see it under one roof because you want to be 691 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:06,280 Speaker 1: able to acknowledge some of these other sites around the country. 692 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: But Indiana worked and to be able to have the 693 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 1: hotels and be connected, you could have these venues. You know. 694 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: I feel bad for you know, VCU that you have 695 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: to forfeit, but if that's the only casualty, I'll be surprised, 696 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 1: pleasantly surprised that that's the only casualty. But I don't 697 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 1: see it under one roof for the entire tournament because 698 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 1: I do think that you want to benefit. Like Dayton 699 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: has hosted tournament games for as long as I can remember, 700 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: and the tournament always acknowledged Dayton as a great basketball city, 701 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 1: and they would have you know, opening round games, first 702 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 1: four games in there. And I hope that some of 703 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: these other sites around the country get that opportunity to 704 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: have college basketball come back there and not just be 705 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: one place. David, Indiana, Hi, Dave, Right, good morning, six 706 00:39:56,640 --> 00:40:01,759 Speaker 1: two sixty Right, get it all right? Got the best 707 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 1: and a worse, and a real quick comment about Brad Stevens. 708 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,800 Speaker 1: My best is Ablene Christian at fifty one hundred students 709 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 1: beating Texas at fifty one thousand, and my worst. I've 710 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,160 Speaker 1: been a produce fan my whole life, and I just 711 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: I can't even talk about it. It It was terrible, all right. 712 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,839 Speaker 1: The Brad Stevens saying, I wish you would get Dan 713 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 1: Dockets on your show this week because he has a 714 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 1: radio show here in Indy and all he wants to 715 00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: talk about is Brad Stevens coming to EU when you 716 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: know it's not going to happen, and I do it's 717 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:38,440 Speaker 1: not going to happen. But he's pretty controversial anyway. I 718 00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,200 Speaker 1: think you'd be a good segment to have Dave. I 719 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 1: will have Dan Dockets on the program tomorrow. Awesome. I'll 720 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,680 Speaker 1: be listening, all right, thank you, Dave, all right, thank you. 721 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:52,400 Speaker 1: Taking a request here in the Dan Patrick's show. Connor 722 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 1: joining us. Hey, Connor, what's on your mind? Six nine 723 00:40:56,360 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: thirty five. I've got a big audience. I wanted to 724 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 1: touch on this Damian Lillard thing. We're always talking about 725 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: how these writers are looking for the next story, and 726 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 1: that's why I don't understand why he's not getting more attraction, 727 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 1: because this is an awesome story. He's carrying this injury 728 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 1: riddled small market team to the playoffs, and he has 729 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 1: an awesome stats. Yep. But as a Portland fan, selfishly, 730 00:41:18,080 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 1: I kind of hope he gets snowed because he plays 731 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 1: so damnip on his shoulder. You're right, you're right about that, Connor. Yeah, 732 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 1: I mean he walks out there and he's angry. Thanks 733 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 1: for the phone call. I agree, you know it's I 734 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:34,000 Speaker 1: think we'll look back on Damian Lillard's career when it's 735 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:37,040 Speaker 1: all said and done and realize that a lot of 736 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 1: people missed it. He was right there in front of us, 737 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,400 Speaker 1: missed it. Indiana's next coach will be the program's fifth 738 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: head coach in the last twenty one years post Bob Knight. 739 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,040 Speaker 1: Since he was fired that was September two thousand, They've 740 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,919 Speaker 1: gone through Mike Davis, Kelvin Sampson, Tom Crean, Archie Miller. 741 00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 1: Never should have fired Tom Creane in my opinion, but 742 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,439 Speaker 1: we'll see who they can get that can take over there. 743 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,920 Speaker 1: Dino in New York, Hey Dino, Hey Dan, how are 744 00:42:07,920 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 1: you doing today? Good sir. I just want to compliment 745 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 1: the show real quick. The last few weeks you've had 746 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 1: three interviews with Jim Jackson, Pat Ewing and Doctor Jay 747 00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 1: was just some of the best sports talk radio I've heard. 748 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 1: Just just a great job. Their personalities came through, you know, 749 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,680 Speaker 1: and I just think it was a real high, high 750 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 1: level work on you guys part. And I wanted to 751 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:33,080 Speaker 1: say thanks. I enjoyed it very very much and I'll 752 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,680 Speaker 1: continue to listen. Thank you, Dino. I appreciate that. I mean, 753 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,240 Speaker 1: I hopefully, and I've known a lot of these guys 754 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 1: that I have on and therefore, you know, maybe there's 755 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 1: a little bit more of a comfort zone, but it 756 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 1: gives me a little bit more of an advantage to 757 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 1: be able to talk to them instead of interview them, 758 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 1: because I don't want to interview. Sometimes you have to interview, 759 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: but for the most part, you want to have a 760 00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,280 Speaker 1: conversation and then allow you to eavesdrop on it. That's 761 00:42:57,320 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 1: really what my goal is. You're listening to something that 762 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 1: you probably didn't think you get to listen to. But 763 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: that's the fun part of it, that it's just a conversation. 764 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,440 Speaker 1: At times. Final hour coming up, we'll give you our 765 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: best and worst to the weekend. I got some information 766 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 1: on Deshaun Watson and the NFL, and hopefully I have 767 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 1: a little more information here over the next fifteen minutes 768 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:24,360 Speaker 1: or so. And I've been focusing on just a football 769 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:30,239 Speaker 1: part of this, not doing this salacious details with everything else. 770 00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 1: I'll leave that to other people. It's not my wheelhouse, 771 00:43:33,360 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 1: not my level of expertise, but just some information that 772 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: I think that you can kind of file away depending 773 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,439 Speaker 1: on which direction this goes with Deshaun Watson. More phone 774 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,479 Speaker 1: calls coming up. We'll give you our best and worst 775 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,320 Speaker 1: of the weekend as well.
