Speaker 1: had to do with Steph Curry. Fritzie is bothered by

15
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: Steph Curry. And then we didn't know if people were

16
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: bothered by Fritzie, so we put up two pole questions

Speaker 1: a no, and that's sixty nine percent of the audience

25
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,200

26
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:31,479
Speaker 1: Are you the Steph Curry of the show. He's far

27
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,119
Speaker 1: more talented than man. He's got that unique thing where

28
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: he's gonna go down and like the Hall of Fame. No, well,

30
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,520

Speaker 1: bring it on himself in his chat rome more estrain

49
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: than it could be? Fritzie should be concerned when you

50
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: guys aren't being jerks, which is accurate. Well, I always

51
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: say to Fritzie, would you rather that we talked about

52
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: you or didn't talk about you, no matter what we

53
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,559
Speaker 1: were saying? And Fritzie said, well, I'd rather be talked about.

54
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 1: You don't want to be ignored. You won't be ignored.

55
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be ignored. No, You're not gonna

56
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 1: be ignored. Darvin Hamm, the Lakers head coach, will join

57
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 1: us coming up. Stanley Cup last night and Overtime, the

58
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: Lightning losing to the Avalanche Tonight, Warriors, Celtics Game six

59
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: and DraftKings has the Celtics favored by four. Right now,

60
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: the over unders Jason Tatum twenty seven and a half

61
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,399
Speaker 1: Steph Curry twenty eight and a half more likely out

62
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: of those two to go over their points yes time. Shockingly,

63
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 1: I will say Steph Curry. Oh okay, you think Steph

64
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: could have an annoyingly entertaining night tonight. I'm very hopeful

65
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: that Jason Tatum will step up in this big game

66
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: six at home, but based on those two, I think

67
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: Curry has a better chance of going over. Nike don

Speaker 1: and it starts at two Eastern non NBC in pecon yesseedon.

71
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: You get the sense that Steph is going to go

72
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: off tonight because he didn't hit any threes in the

73
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: last in that last game, and I don't know how

74
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: many times in his career he's done that, but I'm

75
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: going to imagine he responds in a big way. But

76
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: if I know or think he's going to, then I

77
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: employ the same defense I did in Golden State in

78
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 1: Game five, because now I'm even more concerned that Steph

79
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,840
Speaker 1: is going to go off for a big game. I

80
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: employ the same kind of defense, and I'm going to

81
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: say to everybody else in the Warriors team, try to

82
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 1: do that in our building. Have the night that you

83
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: had in Game five, because we're going to do our

84
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,040
Speaker 1: best to make sure Steph Curry does not beat us tonight.

85
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: And he he hits over ten threes. Over ten threes, Yeah,

86
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: pie to the face. I'll take as many pies to

87
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: the face as I was wrong. So if he only

88
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: hits seven threes, I'll get three to get three pies

89
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: to the face. Okay, yeah, Tyler, go pie shopping. Well,

90
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 1: one of us is going to get pies tomorrow. Why

91
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: are you the flip side of that? If he goes over, Now,

92
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: do you get as many pies as a step hits

93
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: thirteen threes that I take three pies? Okay, okay, fair enough? Yeah? Yeah,

94
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,800
Speaker 1: good good, yeah, good, good, good good. I just want

95
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:23,719
Speaker 1: to check it. So you're seeing you're saying ten for

96
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,360
Speaker 1: Steph Curry, I'm gonna say ten or more. I think

97
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 1: that would be the all time record. It would be

98
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,359
Speaker 1: Freeze made an NBA Finals game, breaking his own record

99
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 1: from twenty eighteen, just saying it'd be a hell of

100
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,559
Speaker 1: a call. Yes, it would be an unbelievable call. Yeah.

101
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: I would gladly take the pies because the team I

102
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: picked to win it all this year would win it all.

103
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,440
Speaker 1: You win either way, Yes, I do. Thank you, congratulations,

104
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 1: thank you. A couple more phone calls in here Brock

105
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: in Missouri, High Brock, what's on your mind today? Hey,

106
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: good morning? Is five to seven strokes surviving two seventy

107
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: and you were big in my stroke rehab. I guess

108
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 1: I'm one of those crab And for Julianne and San Diego,

109
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: there's something I think Ken Rock said about. It's not

110
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 1: cop keys. You can back it up. So let's see

111
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,480
Speaker 1: the man sizes. Okay, all right, So Julianne we had

112
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 1: a pie to the face bet and then she also

113
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: said her hands are bigger than Marvin's. Yes, PAULI, I

114
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 1: got a list here of the most threes made in

115
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: NBA Finals games, and Steph Curry's names all over it.

116
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 1: The usual names are on it, you know, like even

117
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: Devin Booker, you know, guys like that, Clay Thompson's on it.

118
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: There's only one guy from the nineties who has made

119
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,040
Speaker 1: seven eighties or nineties who made seven or more threes

120
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: in an NBA Finals game. I could probably give you

121
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 1: a one hundred guesses and you wouldn't get it. It's

122
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:53,120
Speaker 1: a shocking name. Bruce Bowen. That's a good guess. That's

123
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,039
Speaker 1: actually a very good guest for the better player but

124
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: not known as a score nor a three point shooter

125
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:06,320
Speaker 1: for the nineties. Marv Oh, I got it. Kenny Smith.

126
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: Kenny Smith is just off the list. Oh, you're right there, though.

127
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:16,000
Speaker 1: Kenny Smith is just off the list. Sam Casselle, That

128
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: is also a very good guest. This guy was in

129
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 1: the finals a lot and was never the leading scorer

130
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 1: on his team in any NBA Finals. Another guy, maybe

131
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 1: you've heard of him, Michael Jordan. Scottie Pippen had seven

132
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: threes in the NBA Finals game. It was against Utah,

133
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 1: by the way, and nobody talks about it. No, Yeah,

134
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 1: Scotty probably does, but Michael doesn't. Yes, So seton, I

135
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: think unless I'm what I'm reading here is dated. Now.

136
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: Granted it's not in finals, but Steph has at least

137
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: twenty two games where he's made ten or more three pointers. Okay,

138
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: we're talking Game six NBA Final pivotal games, pivotal Game

139
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: six must win question. Mark, Ye, well, it feels like

140
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 1: it's a must win for Golden State. It sounds strange

141
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 1: to say that, but if I'm Boston, you go back

142
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,239
Speaker 1: to San Francisco, all the pressure is on Golden State

143
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: and well, let's get through tonight. But you know it's

144
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: not one of those where you go, well, Golden State's

145
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: going to close them out at home if it goes

146
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: to a game seven. I think these teams are evenly matched.

147
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: I think Boston has been their worst enemy. I think

148
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: they've lost games Golden State. I don't think it's winning

149
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 1: this as much as it feels like Boston's losing this. Yeah. Point,

150
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 1: in the history of the NBA Finals, someone's had seven

151
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: or more threes made eighteen times. Eight times with Steph Curry.

152
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 1: The rest of the earth was the other ten people.

153
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 1: Mark and Kentucky. Hey Mark, what's on your mind today? Hey?

154
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: Dam I was calling with the comment about the great

155
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 1: entertainers Fritzi's annoyance with Curry, and then also a question

156
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: for the Okay, my comment is that he's the annoyance

157
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: is because unlike the no look pass and football or

158
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,839
Speaker 1: the bat flip and baseball. There's no consequence to him

159
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,920
Speaker 1: showing off. The Larry Bird point in the first hour

160
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: demonstrated that Larry talked a lot of trash, but then

161
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 1: he also had consequences delivered upon him by his opponents.

162
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 1: Where his step is like your little brother when you

163
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: get in trouble, just standing behind your mom, shimmy in

164
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: and shaken, knowing that he can't be touched. But that's

165
00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: why it's annoying. All right, Well, thank you Mark. Yeah,

166
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: he punched in the face to suggesting. Yeah. I was like, Todd,

167
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 1: who are you going to punch in the face. It's

168
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 1: like Steph Curry, I go, wow, little brother standing behind

169
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 1: the mom. You really it does bother you? It does

170
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: it bothers me? That much says something about me. Pete

171
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: in Richmond, Hey, Pete, Hello, gentlemen, it's been a while,

172
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: and just real quick, do you think that Steph's gonna

173
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:00,439
Speaker 1: have such a great game seeing how he's going to

174
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: be at the US Open all day because he's an

175
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: avid golfer. He's in Boston and they open is in Boston.

176
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 1: I'll hang up and listen. Fritzy year outstanding buddy, keep

177
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:15,400
Speaker 1: up that stuff. I don't know that Hill attend, but

178
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: thank you Pete. By the way, we reached out to

179
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: draft Kings and wanted to know, what are the odds

180
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:27,599
Speaker 1: of Steph Curry having ten three pointers tonight? If you

181
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 1: put up a hundred, you make two thousand dollars. Oh,

182
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 1: I might do that, Okay, Polly. Polly opened up the

183
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,520
Speaker 1: velcrow wall and I got twenty four dollars? Anyone got? Okay?

184
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 1: Gary and Oregon? Hey Gary, what's on your mind today?

185
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 1: Hey Dan? I had a quick Larry Verge story. I

186
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 1: attended Indiana University in the fall in nineteen seventy six

187
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 1: when they had their national championship team, and with Buckner

188
00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 1: and May Abernathy camp Danson, et cetera, they won the

189
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: national championship, finished thirty three, and oh, Larry Bird actually

190
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 1: enrolled at Indiana University that fall on a scholarship, And

191
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:11,719
Speaker 1: of course Bob Knight had that team, and Night came

192
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 1: out in an interview years later and said that he

193
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: pretty much ignored Bird when he enrolled and was on

194
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: campus in his freshman year, and after several weeks, Bird

195
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: just packed up his bags, went back to French Lick,

196
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 1: sat out a year, then the next year went to

197
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 1: Indiana State and the rest is history. Yeah, well aware

198
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: of that story. I don't think there's anybody who does

199
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: this for a living who went to french Lick, Indiana

200
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 1: with their girlfriend from Dayton, Ohio on vacation just to

201
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,360
Speaker 1: go down there and maybe get a glimpse of Larry Bird.

202
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's the same like you're going

203
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 1: to Graceland to maybe see Elvis, even though Elvis wouldn't

204
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: have been alive. But I remember talking to my then

205
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 1: girlfriend and I don't know if she broke up soon after,

206
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: but she said, why are we here in French Lick, Indiana.

207
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 1: I said, well, they have great therapeutic spas and they

208
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 1: have Larry Bird as well. I stayed downtown French Lick,

209
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 1: went to his high school when inside shot a couple

210
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: of jumpers drove. I rode a bike over to where

211
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: he grew up, had a basketball hoop and no net

212
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: on it. I shot a couple of shots in the driveway.

213
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if his mom was inside, but I

214
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:36,560
Speaker 1: accomplished everything I needed to accomplish that vacation. Yeah, I

215
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 1: think that is a fine use of your time, and

216
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 1: I'm proud of you that you went to search for

217
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: Larry Bird. Yeah, that's fantastic, the Larry Bird Museum, which

218
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: is opening I think in twenty twenty three in Tara Hotel. Yeah,

219
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: we gotta do a road trip there, the Larry Bird Museum.

220
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: Who wouldn't want to spend a weekend there with family

221
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: and friends? Yes, mar what did downtown French Link consist of?

222
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 1: Not much? A general store, not a whole lot. But

223
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 1: I just remember I stayed at this beautiful hotel. I

224
00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 1: think my girlfriend heard French Lick and then she's like,

225
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 1: where are we going? I go, no, No, that's the

226
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 1: name of the place there too. A couple of times

227
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 1: completely Yeah, French Lick Indiana you don't know me like that?

228
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 1: And uh and Tara Tara hote Uh you know Indiana State. Yeah,

229
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: I'm looking at that French Liq Resorts, Baden Springs. Yes,

230
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: that's gorgeous. Yes, wow, yeah, let's go all we shall

231
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,640
Speaker 1: go out. But that was a maiden switch with my

232
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 1: girlfriend because I was like, yeah, you know, they got

233
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: these therapeutic spas and a beautiful hotel. We arrived and

234
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: I borrowed a bike from somebody who worked at the spa,

235
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: and I rode over to Larry Bird's house where he

236
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: grew up, and uh, yeah, maybe that's like Graceland, grace Land. Yeah.

237
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: I don't think she stayed with me much longer after that. Yeah,

238
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: her lost in Yes, yes, and maybe she said who

239
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: do you love more? Larry Bird or me? And I

240
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: said that's easy. I mean you're both blondes, but I'm

241
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 1: going with Larry. Yeah, he's got a better mustache, not much,

242
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: but he had a better mustache. Yes, time did she

243
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: wanted to know why the spot was inside a barn?

244
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: That's a fair question. Wasn't exactly a fancy hotel? No,

245
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 1: you don't gonna like that. M can't shoome me off

246
00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: of that. Yeah, see this is where the annoying. I

247
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 1: also ask you if you can buy specific items in

248
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: a general store. Okay, all right, I like that everything

249
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: is vague gray. Now that that's Stephen Wright, the comedian.

250
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: Stephen Wright would ask that, what's some batteries? But they

281
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 1: Is he gonna take off his pinky? Does? He played

282
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: Marcus Davenport. Yeah, defensive end for the Saints. Yeah. So

283
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,400
Speaker 1: back when he was in college at UTSA, he had

284
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: pinky problems. And you know, it's not like as a

285
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: recent injury. He's had it for a while now and

286
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: he's had like a couple of different procedures on it

287
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: where but he's got like nerve damage and there's an

288
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 1: infection and it's becoming it's hampering his career. So he

289
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: took it off like a top third of his pinky.

290
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: Well doctor did? Yeah? Okay, in conjunction with yeah, him

291
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: in his pain. But is this like Ronnie Lott similar?

292
00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 1: Because if you read back about a lot. He wasn't

293
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: just being a tough guy. It was like there was

294
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: exposed nerves and it was going to prevent him from

295
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 1: playing in the playoffs. Yeah, but Davenports, it's just you know,

296
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 1: he showed at the reporters at the media sessions that

297
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: here's here's the nub, but he had it amputated. Yeah. See,

298
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 1: so Marcus Davenport already had a plate in his finger,

299
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 1: then that also that broke and then got infected. Man,

300
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 1: that sounds like it makes sense anytime you're around these

301
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 1: offensive linemen or defensive linemen. I'm shocked when their fingers

302
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: don't go like in strange directions. When when you see

303
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 1: like David Deal played with the Giants, uh, Brian Baldinger,

304
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 1: like they have fingers that it looks like, you know,

305
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: that can't be real that it's been that way, and

306
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,879
Speaker 1: it just gets in the way when you're trying to

307
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 1: block somebody or grab somebody's jersey. Ye have point. I'll

308
00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: bet these guys are so tough, like you know, the

309
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: pain of having the finger. Yeah, people will be embarrassed

310
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 1: to not have their top of their finger, but these

311
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 1: guys like I gotta deal with this every day. Just

312
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 1: take it off like a relax. I spoke to Darbin

313
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: Ham yesterday after the show. The Lakers head coach. He

314
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 1: won a championship with the Pistons. He played eight years

315
00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 1: in the NBA. He also won the Slam Dunk Contest

316
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 1: back in nineteen ninety six. He also brought down a backboard.

317
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 1: He played at Texas Tech. They were playing against North

318
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,439
Speaker 1: Carolina in the tournament and he brought down a backboard

319
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: broke it. He was in the Slam Dunk Contest and

320
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 1: that was the Slam Dunk that Kobe won in nineteen

321
00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: ninety seven. He's been around the league. He was with

322
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 1: the Bucks, he was with the Hawks, he was with

323
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: the Lakers, and now he's back with the Lakers as

324
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,160
Speaker 1: the head coach. And I started the conversation by saying,

325
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,880
Speaker 1: you played against both Kobe and Michael Jordan. How would

326
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: you compare Lebron James approach to being great to those

327
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:59,360
Speaker 1: two players. Mike was the trailblazer in the term of

328
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,399
Speaker 1: the type of modern basketball we see the way he

329
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: was built, his athleticism, it's a multi faceted game. The

330
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: way he could shoot, the way he could play, make, defend.

331
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: He kind of turned was a guy turned the page

332
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 1: forward to uh, you know, beyond the Magic and Bird era.

333
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: And then you had Kobe who was like an offshoot

334
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 1: of Mike m really really eerily similar to the same

335
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 1: physical makeup, same type of playing style. So he Kobe

336
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 1: doesn't get, in my opinion, enough credit because he's so

337
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: much the prototypical Michael Jordan guy, like he's attached to

338
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: Michael forever in my opinion. But even standing on his own,

339
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 1: he was able to, you know, make leaps and bounds

340
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 1: in terms of his impact on the game, and you

341
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 1: know what he was able to accomplish individually. But Lebron

342
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: is just like something we've never seen a guy at

343
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,159
Speaker 1: that size, that physical stature, with that skill set U

344
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 1: and the ability to play all five positions. It's like

345
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: Lebron to me, is like a new version of Magic

346
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: Johnson two point zero. You know it's it's it's uh.

347
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: I mean you you know I have It's funny saying

348
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: Dan to myself, like every NBA player has an NBA father.

349
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 1: You know, you look at Kobe and Mike, you look

350
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: at to me, Magic and Lebron, you look at Dirk

351
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 1: and Larry Bird like everybody has a NBA NBA father,

352
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: so it's it's it's fun to talk about. But what

353
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: Lebron has been able to do in his own era

354
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: and leading the charge for this new crop of young

355
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 1: talent is second to nine. I mean, he's right up there,

356
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 1: top five in my opinion of all time. You turn

357
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 1: forty nine next month. Why did it take this long

358
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 1: to get a head coaching job in your opinion? I

359
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: don't know. You might have to ask some of these

360
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 1: ownership groups in some of these front offices. I don't

361
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: I'm you know. I had a young coach one time

362
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: asked me what does he need to do to become

363
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 1: an NBA head coach? I said, well, you're asking the

364
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 1: wrong guy, having I know how not to get a

365
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: head coaching job apparently, But you know, it's everything has

366
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 1: its own time. Like I always say, we're all on

367
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: God's time. And sometimes you may think you're ready for something,

368
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: but you know it's just not your time. The circumstances,

369
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 1: you know, are various in various situations. But I'm here now,

370
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: I feel comfortable in the seat. I'm not fearful or

371
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 1: apprehensive about anything. There's no perfect way to go about

372
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 1: doing this you ask all thirty NBA head coaches and

373
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 1: they may give you a different answer on what they

374
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 1: need to do to be successful. And I've learned a lot.

375
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 1: I've had opportunity to play and work alongside some phenomenal,

376
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,520
Speaker 1: phenomenal head coaches, So I feel comfortable in my skill set.

377
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,479
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make sure we do our due diligence and

378
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: put a good staff around me and and put together

379
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 1: the best roster we can possibly put together, and and

380
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,679
Speaker 1: and move forward one day at a time. He's the

381
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 1: new Laker head coach, Darvin Ham joining us on the program.

382
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: Did you keep any part of that backboard that you

383
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 1: shattered back in nineteen ninety six? Like, did you think

384
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: about keeping any of them? I do have a few

385
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: pieces of glass and in a little case in my

386
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,520
Speaker 1: man cave. What do you remember about that game is

387
00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 1: against North Carolina? Yes, it just the one thing that

388
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 1: always sticks out is the way we were just counted

389
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,160
Speaker 1: out before the tip off. Leading up the tip off,

390
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 1: no one thought we had a chance. And they had

391
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 1: a formidable ball club, you know they at Vince Carter, Antwine,

392
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:48,440
Speaker 1: Jamison Simon Williams, Jeff McGinnis. They had some really really

393
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 1: good players, about four or five pros. So and here

394
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: we are this little bitty team from West Texas that

395
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: had a great record but not great recognition because of

396
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: playing the fact that we were in a very small

397
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 1: on market, so a lot of people didn't get a

398
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: chance to see us. But just that game started out

399
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: just back and forth, back and forth, and up until

400
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 1: that play, you know, it was a really hard for

401
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 1: our game, and once that play happened, it just completely

402
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: shifted the momentum to our direction. So it was It's

403
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 1: a great, great memory. It's something that I get reminded

404
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: of all the time. I still get magazines to sign

405
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,240
Speaker 1: in the mail of coll have people show up to

406
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,199
Speaker 1: Arena's talking about that play, and it gets mentioned all

407
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 1: the time, even twenty six years later. Well, if you

408
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 1: would have done that in the slam Dunk contest, maybe Kobe,

409
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 1: Kobe wouldn't have won, right if I had taken my

410
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 1: time in the slam Dug contest, I think I went

411
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: a little too fast, But I'm still bitter about being

412
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 1: the only one that made three dunks, and three really

413
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,479
Speaker 1: nice dunks at that and didn't make it to the

414
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: second round. So that was that was I think the

415
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:55,840
Speaker 1: fix was on. Help me understand. I think people expect

416
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 1: you to fix Russell Westbrook and at his age, he's

417
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: not changing. But how do you what is your game

418
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: plan for Rush and how to incorporate him better into

419
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: the Laker offense. I think the style of player we're

420
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 1: gonna have, you know, all of those guys, not only

421
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 1: just Rust but lebron ad they're going to be able

422
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: to share the load. And one thing I mentioned, the

423
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 1: rust is the way I'm built the success I've seen,

424
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 1: especially most recently here in the last nine years, in

425
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: the last forty years being with coach Bud in Milwaukee,

426
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 1: also in Atlanta, but in Milwaukee. One thing we always

427
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: preached then we'll continue to preach to be our foundation

428
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: of our teams is a defensive mindset, being able to

429
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,280
Speaker 1: defend at a high level. And I challenged him and

430
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: he accepted the challenge. You know, that's a part of

431
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 1: the worst sacrifice we use. And being able to move

432
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:49,920
Speaker 1: him around at different spaces on the floor as we

433
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 1: go back on the offensive end. Sometimes he's gonna be

434
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 1: off the ball slashing, Sometimes he's gonna play in the dunker.

435
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: Sometimes he's gonna be initiating things. He may post up

436
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 1: a little bit, he may be the screener and pick

437
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 1: and rolls, so being able to diversify his plan of

438
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 1: attack where he's not just rushing the ball up the

439
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: court facing three defenders every time and having to you know,

440
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,880
Speaker 1: put it. Like I said to press conference, put there

441
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: can run to the telephone booth and put their capes

442
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,479
Speaker 1: on like we need to. Everybody needs to be involved

443
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 1: with what we're doing on both sides of the ball,

444
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 1: and I think it will make it easier lighting the

445
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,199
Speaker 1: load and also allow us to get stronger as the

446
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 1: season gets longer. I've mentioned this before on my show

447
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:38,160
Speaker 1: that the Greek freak Anthony Davis was Yannis before Yannis,

448
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 1: but it feels like Yannis has surpassed him. Why is that, Well,

449
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: I think, you know, it's a real part of our game,

450
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 1: the element of injury. When you're not able to stay healthy,

451
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:56,040
Speaker 1: you know, it stunts growth. But you know, I just

452
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: saw Anthony yesterday. He looks great, doing a great job

453
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: taking care of his body, and the key for him

454
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: has always been just to have him available. You know,

455
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: when he's healthy. He's one of the top five seven

456
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 1: players in our league. And you know, the biggest thing

457
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 1: with that is again lightening the load and making them

458
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,919
Speaker 1: feel like they don't have to take fourth quarter shots

459
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,480
Speaker 1: in the first quarter or play playoff basketball in the

460
00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,959
Speaker 1: first month of the season. Everyone has to pitch in,

461
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: and I think different ways will move him around on

462
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 1: defensively as well as offensively. We'll lightening that load a

463
00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:36,160
Speaker 1: little bit when he's not flying all over the place

464
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,440
Speaker 1: having to cover for everyone defensively, or he's not taking

465
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: a beating every single play down the floor, just trying

466
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:46,479
Speaker 1: to iceo io io like playing faster offensively and again

467
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: having that team pride and every man accounted for one

468
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,159
Speaker 1: another defensively, I think will help him give him the

469
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: best chance to not only stay healthy, but get back

470
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 1: to that championship level of play that we've been accustomed

471
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 1: to see them. Do you care who wins the NBA Finals?

472
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 1: Not really? Are you gonna watch tomorrow night? Yes? Indeed,

473
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 1: I'm kind of rude. I have to be honest, and

474
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 1: Laker Nation, don't don't beat me up for this one.

475
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: It's more on a personal level. But you know, I

476
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 1: love Steve Kerr, both of those guys. He and he

477
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:25,240
Speaker 1: may extremely good human beings. But it's a little something

478
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: in me with he may be in the first time

479
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,800
Speaker 1: head coach and doing what he's doing. I think especially

480
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 1: as an African American coach first time or with that organization,

481
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: the magnitude of expectations that are there with the Celtics, um,

482
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 1: it gives me a lot of inspiration. It gives me

483
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: a lot of excitement, and uh, you know, I wish

484
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 1: them both well or at the end of the day,

485
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: Steph the greatest shooter of all time could be. I

486
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: played with a really good one in Ray Allen. But yeah,

487
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,399
Speaker 1: if they head to head, Sorry, Ray, I probably have

488
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:05,880
Speaker 1: to put. If I said Bird Ray Steph to win

489
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:10,880
Speaker 1: the game, I'm going with Larry Legend. Oh, I'm going

490
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,360
Speaker 1: with Larry. I'm sorry Larry at six nine, six ten,

491
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,600
Speaker 1: with that strap he had on his arm, I did

492
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: he Did he do damage to you? Larry? You know

493
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 1: I grew up in sacking on Michigan man as a

494
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 1: Detroit Piston thing, and so Magic Johnson being Famish was

495
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: always my favorite player, but the Pistons were always my

496
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 1: favorite team, and man, some of those Piston Celtic battles

497
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: in the eighties, I'm up a certain Age, I'm dating

498
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 1: myself now, but I fell in love with the game

499
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: in the eighties and I thought you had some of

500
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:46,000
Speaker 1: the best NBA basketball, some of the best matchups, some

501
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 1: of the best college ball also. But those those Celtics

502
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 1: man with Bird, McHale, Paris, Dennis Johnson, all those guys,

503
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: I hated, Danny Yane like Jerry c s Yeah, all

504
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: those guys. I've got still laugh with Sage mc corbread

505
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 1: Maxwell when we were playing them in the series, and

506
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 1: those out man, I hated those guys. Man, everybody in

507
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: the state hated this helpic, especially now I'm a Laker.

508
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 1: It's even it's deep and even more great to talk

509
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: to you, and congratulations, good luck, Darvin. Thank you so much. Dan.

510
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,360
Speaker 1: Great seeing at s Darvin Ham the Lakers head coach.

511
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 1: We recorded that interview yesterday. Got a big job ahead

512
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: of him because and this is your first job, you're

513
00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 1: going into that with the front office. You also have

514
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 1: Lebron at the tail end of his career trying to

515
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 1: motivate Anthony Davis, trying to figure out Russell Westbrook, and

516
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 1: then what other parts can you put in there that

517
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 1: will compliment this team to make it a formidable team.

518
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 1: Can you trade anybody? Probably not Jeff and Detroit. Hi, Jeff,

519
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,479
Speaker 1: what do you have for me today? What the one

520
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: time for chat row? Listen? That was a wonderful interview

521
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: right there. Uh man. First of all, he was not

522
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: lying about our hatred for the Celtics. It was real.

523
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,880
Speaker 1: It was really really I hated Bird because he was

524
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 1: so good, and now that I'm older, I can appreciate

525
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: the person that he has become. First of all, a

526
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: very good interview with Brady yesterday. Man, I got a

527
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: lot of points up out of that. Shout out to

528
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,680
Speaker 1: Bob Schmidt, who does to open on your show man

529
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: that Bill Crow bent with the wild and you saying

530
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:29,360
Speaker 1: come to Daddy off have you in stitches? Dude? And

531
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: my thing? I kid you not. It was just classics. Um,

532
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: Look you got to night Dan, What did you see happening?

533
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: Put you put your NASA Dani's hat on for me?

534
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 1: I think I think the Celtics are gonna win tonight

535
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: and we're going to Game seven. I said it from

536
00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:46,840
Speaker 1: the beginning there would be a seven game series, and

537
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: I still like Golden State to win. I hope we

538
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: see Boston be able to show who they truly are,

539
00:30:55,880 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: and because it's been inconsistent, they haven't put together for

540
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: good quarters. I'm not even talking four great but just

541
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: four consistent quarters. And if you're able to do that,

542
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 1: then we're going back to San Francisco for Sunday's Game seven,

543
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: and I hope so I'd love to see that Game

544
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 1: seven can't go wrong. It's like, you know, all of

545
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: those games, all those finals with Jordan, you never went

546
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 1: to a game seven. I don't want to sweep. Now,

547
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 1: I'd love I love seeing that on the big stage

548
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: and everything is happening. It's you know, we had the

549
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 1: Yankees and the Red Sox in OH three, and you know,

550
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:40,600
Speaker 1: you go to seven games and then all of a sudden,

551
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: it's like Red Sox and the Cardinals and you go, wait,

552
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 1: it's over. What happened? It was that quick. You want

553
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,440
Speaker 1: to see those games go as long as they can,

554
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 1: because these careers come and go, having been around long

555
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 1: enough where you see somebody in college or even high

556
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 1: school and then that's it. They're done. Steph Curry at

557
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: Davidson and then here he is, what thirty four years

558
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: of age? How much longer is he going to play? Two? Three? More? Years,

559
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit more Tom Brady. Tom Brady watching

560
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: that Rose Bull and he's not even starting against Washington

561
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 1: State and now he's at the very tail end of this.

562
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:32,360
Speaker 1: It's just I remember seeing Drew Brees at Purdue as

563
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame career like that, it happens, and

564
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,800
Speaker 1: it happens so quickly, and then you missed that player

565
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 1: that team. Bjorn Borg is the classic example. He retired

566
00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 1: at twenty six, and I was so caught up in

567
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 1: loving John McEnroe that I really missed Bjorn Borg the

568
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 1: greatness that he showed, certainly at Wimbledon that it was

569
00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: all done, and it's like, oh my god, do you

570
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: realize how great he was in that short period of time.

571
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 1: It's because you get kind of caught up where you're

572
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: rooting against somebody or even rooting for somebody, and then

573
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 1: it's all done. And I hope Steph Curry has that

574
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 1: moment puts to bed this. Well. I never was finals MVP.

575
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: He's still gonna be a first ballot Hall of Famer

576
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 1: and one of the greatest players of all time and

577
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,479
Speaker 1: the greatest shooter of all time. I thought it was interesting,

578
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 1: you though, Darvin Ham, I said, you know you got

579
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: to win a game one shot. I'll give you anybody

580
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: you want, so I'll take Larry Legend. You know, it's

581
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: one thing to make shots. It's another thing to make

582
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: a shot when you have to make a shot, when

583
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 1: everybody knows you have to make a shot. And that's

584
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:45,720
Speaker 1: the difference with good to great, great to all time.

585
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: It's I want the ball. They know I want the ball.

586
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,360
Speaker 1: I'm going to shoot it. They know I'm gonna shoot it,

587
00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 1: and then when you make it, that's devastating. Take a break,

588
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: last call for phone calls, what we learn, what's in

589

603
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 1: Hockey League said that the Stanley Cup will not make

604
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: its way to Russia. It will not travel. If a

605
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 1: member of the Ams are a member of the Lightning

606
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 1: win the Stanley Cup, they will not allow them to

607
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 1: take that the Cup to Russia. It let's see, the

608
00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,439
Speaker 1: quote is with respect to this summer. The Cup isn't

609
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:26,839

Speaker 1: Verse a prominent PGA tour play well, the only way

649
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: I would take the live hypothetical is Phil Mickelson and

650
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,320
Speaker 1: Rory McElroy. That's it. If you said that would happen,

651
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: then you can sign me up for that. If not,

652
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:32,840
Speaker 1: then give me Game seven Stanley Cup the NBA Finals.

653
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 1: Van in South Carolina, High Van. What's on your mind today? Hey,

654
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 1: dans taking on called doubling back to the amputation talk

655
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 1: earlier about ten years ago, I got my hand messed

656
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 1: up in a workshop accident during pilot training for the

657
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 1: Air Force, and they gave me a choice between about

658
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,320
Speaker 1: a year where the surgery is and keep it, or

659
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:53,440
Speaker 1: I could go ahead and get it taken off and

660
00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,520
Speaker 1: start flying right away. And so I took the second option.

661
00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: And so I'm currently a nine fingered helicopter. What finger

662
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 1: did you lose? The middle finger on my right hand? Now,

663
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: does that affect anything when you fly? No? It turns

664
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,360
Speaker 1: out it's actually the only finger that you can lose

665
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 1: and have no limitations on what you can fly. So

666
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,399
Speaker 1: that made the decision a little bit easier. Um, so

667
00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,680
Speaker 1: we ended up working out really well. Makes a bunch

668
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 1: of cool party tricks and allays joking out of people

669
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,840
Speaker 1: that I get ten percent off manicures. Do you do

670
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 1: your buddies make fun of you? Uh? Yeah, a little bit,

671
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 1: but that's it's it's generally a running joke at this point.

672
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 1: It's a constant source of amusement for our friend group,

673
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: So it's it's funny. I'll run into people when we

674
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 1: moved to new assignments and they'll see my hand and

675
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 1: I'll go, oh, you're that guy. So the word has

676
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:48,040
Speaker 1: spread throughout the airport's pretty pretty well by now. Van

677
00:39:48,239 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 1: Pauli has a question for you. Did you switch from

678
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 1: gloves to mittens for wintertime? No? I actually have my

679
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 1: wife so down the middle finger. So did the fabrics

680
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:00,799
Speaker 1: not just flapping around because otherwise by closing my hand

681
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 1: a flip. Yeah, Seaton's used to that, by the way, Van, Yeah, yeah,

682
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: oh Man, Hey, quick shout out to my dad, Brian Neil.

683
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:12,520
Speaker 1: He loves the show. He's the one to put me on.

684
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,719
Speaker 1: We're actually moving across the country right now. I listen

685
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:17,919
Speaker 1: to you guys all the way, so I appreciate it. Dan. Thanks,

686
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 1: shout out to Brian. Yeah, Seaton's now getting tweets where

687
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,120
Speaker 1: people are giving you the finger there. Well, there are

688
00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people who are doing the hidden middle

689
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 1: finger trick where you don't take your hands off of

690
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 1: the steering wheel, you just extend one finger. I think

691
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 1: that's so funny that that guy was mad at you

692
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:37,680
Speaker 1: and then he just sort of lifted up his fingers.

693
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 1: He didn't want to do it in front of his

694
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 1: wiping kids. He just slyly gave me this day in

695
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 1: sports history. Paulie nineteen seventy five. This is a gutsy move.

696
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: Milwaukee Bucks traded career adultge Bar and his prime to

697
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 1: the Los Angeles Lakers and you know, yikes. Nineteen eighty one,

698
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: the Chicago Tribune purchased the Chicago Cubs from the Wrigley

699
00:40:55,080 --> 00:41:00,200
Speaker 1: family for twenty point five million dollars. Less than thirty

700
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:04,320
Speaker 1: years later, they sold the Cubs for one billion dollars.

701
00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:07,879
Speaker 1: And Michael Jordan ninety three score fifty five points. NBA

702
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 1: Finals game against the Suns, Game four on this state

703
00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:16,279
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety six, the Bulls beat the SuperSonics. It was

704
00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 1: eighty seven to seventy five. Man, that's old school. Uh,

705
00:41:23,360 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 1: let's see what else happened on this day. By the way,

706
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 1: when the Bucks traded Kareem, they also traded Walt Wesley,

707
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 1: a seven footer, and the Lakers sent Elmore Smith Brian Winters,

708
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:42,760
Speaker 1: and then they had draft picks Dave Meyer and Junior Bridgeman.

709
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:50,560
Speaker 1: You know, Kareem just wanted out of Milwaukee. And I

710
00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,640
Speaker 1: don't know if it was religious reasons. He had changed

711
00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:57,920
Speaker 1: his name. He had I think some incidents in Milwaukee

712
00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,439
Speaker 1: when he changed it from lew Mouse into to cream

713
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 1: Abdul Jabbar. But he had played his college ball in

714
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:07,600
Speaker 1: Los Angeles. That worked out well for the Lakers. Elmore

715
00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:12,640
Speaker 1: Smith was a serviceable big man, Brian Winter's great shooter,

716
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:18,919
Speaker 1: Dave Meyer UCLA Bruin, and Junior Bridgeman. Out of all

717
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: of those, Junior Bridgeman's the most successful. I think he's

718
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:28,160
Speaker 1: an incredible businessman. I think he's worth a billion dollars.

719
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 1: What did I learn today? Todd? After a poor game

720
00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 1: five shooting at home, Seemed predicts Steph card will hit
