Now, hey, maybe to drag 26 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 6: it said, maybe best of nine, now best of eleven. 27 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 6: You know what, since we really didn't get the best 28 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 6: of nine back at the nineteen nineteen World Series, We're 29 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 6: gonna play it here. 30 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 1: They really need that, Knicks Pacers. How about we extended. 31 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: How about we just make this the NBA title. Let's 32 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,839 Speaker 1: just let just make this the end of the title. Going 33 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: to the fourth quarter, Knicks lead the Pacers ninety to 34 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: eighty seven. Jalen Brunson with twenty seven for the Knicks, 35 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: Tyres Halliburton with twenty three. They have both looked at 36 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: times unstoppable in this game. But the first thing I'm 37 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,119 Speaker 1: gonna say is this, because this is one of those 38 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 1: times where and we joked around about this going into 39 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: the series, like oh Rick Carlisle's already complaining about the 40 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: officiating before they've been played Game one, Like watching this 41 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 1: game be officiated, it's not being officiated great for either side. 42 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: Like you've seen Jalen runs and getting foul trouble with 43 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: four on a foul that I can't believe was whistled. 44 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 1: Karl Anthony Towns as well. I know the same thing 45 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: has happened for the Pacers. You know, the big continuation 46 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: foul that Brunson got after he picked up his fourth 47 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: foul was kind of a give back. So I really 48 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 1: no matter how this turns out at the end, this 49 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: is a game where I watch both sides and I go, okay, 50 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: you know what, each side has has an issue with 51 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: the officiating, which means the officiating can't be complaint. 52 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 5: Now we know the fourth quarter ago, we see how 53 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 5: things go. 54 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: Obviously, but to this point, when both sides have issue 55 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: with the officiating, neither side can complain because it's not 56 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 1: like the Pacers are getting done. 57 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 5: It's not like the knicks are being done. 58 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm seeing I'm seeing it on both sides right now, 59 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: and I know that Rick Carla every time they cut 60 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: await him on the side. It's like, I can't wait 61 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: to talk about the officiing. I can't wait to talk 62 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: about the officiating postgame. But I'll tell you right now, 63 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: there's been some questionable stuff, but it's really been both sides. 64 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: I really hope that you would see a little bit 65 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: more of letting them play in game one, but this 66 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: could also be a Hey, the officials aren't gonna let 67 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: things get so out of wax. So Game one might 68 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 1: be a little bit tighter. Uh So, but again here's 69 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: where we are. It's a three point game and and 70 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,119 Speaker 1: both teams are playing fantastic. This is what you want, 71 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 1: right Game one of the Eastern Conference Finals. 72 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 6: Well, that's a three point game going to the fourth 73 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 6: as we roll in and we watched the the Pacers 74 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 6: try try to get going. Gonna be one thing for 75 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 6: the for the Knicks, that was huge second quarter. Jalen 76 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 6: bruns had got to sit for a full seven minutes 77 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 6: of game time. Uh So that should play a little 78 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 6: bit of a role given his energizer bunny status. Uh 79 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 6: that you see in the best or I guess the 80 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 6: worst of circumstances. Now he's actually rested. But in terms 81 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 6: of the officiating watching it over the course of that, 82 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 6: I just want consistency, and that's what we're we continue 83 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 6: to struggle with of all, Right, I'm I gonna touch 84 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 6: call the touch files? 85 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 4: Am I not? I'm gonna call the moving screen? Am 86 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 4: I not? 87 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 6: The reach in the continuation? Like both guys have gotten it. 88 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 6: Both Haliburton uh and Jalen Brunson have gotten that extra 89 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 6: step gather well and the in the gather. If I 90 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 6: had a nickel for every time that's now said on 91 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 6: a rate, in the gap, tell the. 92 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 5: Gather, it's the thing now in the gather, Yes, in 93 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 5: the gather. 94 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 6: Like in the grasp, once upon a time in the NFL, 95 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 6: all of those things. But you know, just trying to 96 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 6: figure out where where they decide the line is, and 97 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 6: that's going to be a moving target. We saw the 98 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,559 Speaker 6: Facebook page of the twenty officials that will work the 99 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 6: Conference finals series. They've got their work cut out for 100 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 6: him because these are two teams that love to get 101 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 6: after it and and the big guys are very aggressive 102 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 6: and and will make guys earn their points at the stripe. 103 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: Now, I'm glad you mentioned, you know, getting him, getting 104 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,039 Speaker 1: Jalen Brunson getting that it's nearly six minutes worth of 105 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 1: rest in the second quarter. It was a huge deal 106 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: because Campaign comes in, who barely played and barely scored 107 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: so far in the playoffs, and he came in and 108 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 1: the Knicks push that lead out to eight at one point. 109 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: Now that they had the lead at halftime when they 110 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: were down early because the Pacers i think started twelve 111 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: for twelve from the floor. So those are some real 112 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: big minutes. Campaign hit a couple of threes to get 113 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: the knicks up there and wound up with a you know, 114 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: taking the lead. 115 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 5: So those are some really really. 116 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 1: Big buckets there, and some big minutes by Campaign, because 117 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: now here's Brunson who just hits two circus hoops that 118 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: you look and go, Okay, that's not nope, there it 119 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: goes okay, yep, nope, those are both going. So it's 120 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: a three point Nick lead right now, ninety four ninety 121 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: one with about ten and a half to go in 122 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter. So we'll have more on this as 123 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: the game keeps go. Obviously, we had a big night, 124 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: big day today in the NBA with Shay Gildas Alexander 125 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 1: winning the NBA MVP, and uh, I gotta say two things. 126 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 1: What yes, okay, sure. The first thing I'm gonna say 127 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: is this all right? 128 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 5: How's the Lebron James number five? 129 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 7: What? 130 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 4: What? 131 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 3: What? 132 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 5: What do you want? First? You want? Do you want 133 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 5: the crazy one or do you want the Do you 134 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 5: want the serious one? Whatdy? 135 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 4: No, you gotta go serious first because then. 136 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: Crazy wan So no, you have to actually swing the 137 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: bat to win the MVP and not doing that. 138 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 4: Well, I mean OBP might really really. 139 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 5: Matter to people. We will get to that. We'll get 140 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 5: to that. 141 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 1: So here's the thing is that I'll give you the 142 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: serious one first is I'm glad SGA one simply because 143 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,679 Speaker 1: it shows you that, Okay, this is an MVP award. 144 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: It's not Player of the Award. Most Valuable Player is 145 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: for a player who is the most valuable to his team, 146 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: and you. 147 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 5: Need to achieve as a team to win MVP. 148 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 1: Jokich is phenomenal, Right, MVP player three out of last 149 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: four years. 150 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, I get it. 151 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: But it's not like during the regular season the Nuggets 152 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: are suddenly out to winning sixty five games. They're a nice, 153 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: middle of the pack, fifty to fifty five win team. 154 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: That's what Jokic brings the Nuggets. SGA this year also 155 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 1: had an incredible year, right, I mean, Yokic, the triple double, 156 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: all the different things. He had a fantastic year. But 157 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,159 Speaker 1: it's for the regular season. It's not just hey, this 158 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: is the best player, and SGA helped lead the Thunder 159 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: to the best record in the West. He did some 160 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,119 Speaker 1: things we'd never seen in the NBA before. So yeah, 161 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 1: he's the MVP because it's not a Player of the Award. 162 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 1: I am okay, if leagues want to say, you know what, 163 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 1: how about we do this. Let's give out more hardware, 164 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 1: Let's have a Player of the Year award, and let's 165 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: have an MV. I've been saying this for years. Why 166 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: not let's have it, have the the the Kobe Bryant 167 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: Player of the Year Award, or however you want to 168 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 1: do it. You can, you can have it, because that 169 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: would work. Then you can make hey, who's the best player. 170 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: The best player is Nicole Yo, look at it? Okay, great, 171 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: and then the MVP. Jay Gilders, Alexander you do it 172 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: in Major League Baseball. You could do it in the NFL. 173 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: You can do it in the NBA. But really it's 174 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: more for the NBA and the MLB getting that going, 175 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: because hey, when a guy has that great a year, 176 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if his team is middling in the standings. 177 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: And yeah, and the Nuggets were kind of middling in 178 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 1: the standings last way they won the title, right, but 179 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: every year regular season they finished third or fourth. So 180 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I can't sit here and say, yeah, you'll 181 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: get just the MVP again, when when it's about raising 182 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: your team to a height and they've been just a 183 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: you know, steady they did boop boop boop, you know, 184 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: fifty five fifty to fifty five win team for the 185 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: last five years. 186 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 6: Well, but that's the thing, right, if we we've got 187 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 6: to take it in the vacuum of this season, you 188 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 6: could argue this might have been Jokic's finest performance, right, 189 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 6: Porter Junior wasn't very good. It had injury issues, but 190 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 6: struggled a bunch, Jamal Murray missed a bunch of time, 191 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 6: and well you fired Michael. 192 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 4: Malone in the middle of it. 193 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 6: All of that, say, you finished with eighteen fewer regular 194 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 6: season wins than o case he did so while he 195 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 6: was a wizard himself, and you could make that argument. 196 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 6: I was surprised by the margin of victory, right, not 197 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 6: that sg nds up winning it, but a seventy one 198 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 6: twenty nine final. That one seemed that was curious to 199 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 6: me because I think there was still a lot of 200 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 6: in the you know, anonymous polling towards the end of 201 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 6: the regular season, there was still a lot of nah, 202 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 6: Jokic just having his finest season and yeah, blah blah, 203 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 6: and in the end you get SGA off the thirty 204 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 6: point per game. Now that you hit the backlash because 205 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 6: you start subtracting all the file shots he shouldn't have taken, 206 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 6: and that he takes his scoring average down and all 207 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 6: of those things. But for this season, no, I mean 208 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 6: I don't have an issue with it. You raced out 209 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 6: to sixty eight wins. You you bludgeon teams time and 210 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 6: time again. Right, your average margin of victory was so great. 211 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 6: And I understand the counter argument as folks, well, you 212 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 6: know what, they had it good enough and a deep 213 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 6: enough team, and blah blah blah. He's still the head 214 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 6: of the Snake and he's still the guy that's the leader, 215 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 6: and that is unquestioned, and he gets them to sixty 216 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 6: eight wins in a very difficult and deep Western Conference. 217 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 6: So yeah, to the victor goes the spoils, and it 218 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 6: creates a new narrative. Right, there's sga given Nicole Yo 219 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 6: gets another one. 220 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: Hey, four out of five, Bret, you're creating new stars, right, 221 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 1: That's it has always been creating new stars, right, Like, 222 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: how did Jordan not win every year? 223 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 5: How did Shock not win every year? Right? We want 224 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 5: to create new stars. I get it. 225 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: So I'm glad that happened because I'm glad because it 226 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 1: it shows you. Hey, yeah, we took that this is 227 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: going to be MVP of one. 228 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,599 Speaker 6: Yeah, and the margin of victory won't matter when we 229 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 6: get further away from it, because it's it's not like 230 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 6: it's a Shaq iverson thing you would have been getting in. 231 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 4: Ah, not really. 232 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 3: Uh. 233 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 5: The other one is this now here? 234 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,319 Speaker 6: Okay, let's go crazy, all right, come on now, we 235 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 6: got to provide content for a lot of folks. 236 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 4: Get those notebooks out. 237 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,199 Speaker 1: The Oklahoma City Thunder have you know since they've come 238 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: into the league. Hey, look at this small market team, 239 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: you know, finding a way to stay relevant. Boy, they're 240 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: a great story. Okay, but maybe. 241 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 5: They're the biggest bleeping underachievers in the NBA. 242 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 7: Yeah. 243 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: You have had three different MVPs in the last decade. Three, 244 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: not one, not two, You've had three. The teams with 245 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 1: three m vps aren't like the Lakers and the Celtics 246 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: and Banners and championships. You've had three guys win MVP 247 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: in the last decade. And yet and this way, hey, 248 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: we get to the finals, it'll be the second time.

Is 376 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: a fifteen point lead with six minutes left to play. 377 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: The big thing to know they have pushed this lead. 378 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 4: It was It was a. 379 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: Three to five point game for the majority of the 380 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: second of the last part of the third quarter. Jalen 381 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: Brunson goes to the bench picking up his fifth foul. 382 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: Now the fourth foul is on the refs fifth foul 383 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 1: was on him a bad play. Look, the Pacers are 384 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:12,119 Speaker 1: going at him defensively because I want to try to 385 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: get him in foul trouble. Want to try to make 386 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 1: him work, and it worked. He got up in the air. 387 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 5: TJ. McConnell gets his fifth foul. 388 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 1: But since leaving the game, the Knicks have now pushed 389 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: this lead out to fifteen with Brunson sitting on the 390 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 1: bench twenty eight and nine for Karl Anthony Towns, who 391 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,719 Speaker 1: was taking heat check threes right now because he's feeling 392 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: it so much. Look Brunson thirty one before he goes 393 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,360 Speaker 1: to the bench with the five fouls. It really has 394 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 1: been something to see with Jalen Brunson on the bench. 395 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 1: You think things are going to get a little nervous. 396 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 1: Things are gonna get a little weird, Things are gonna 397 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: a little crazy. The Knicks lead gets pushed out to 398 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: fifteen with under six minutes left to get z over. 399 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 6: Under was thirty and a half Jalen Brunson, So there 400 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 6: you go. But what Rick Carlile's really got to be 401 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:59,199 Speaker 6: salty about is how well the Knicks have played for 402 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 6: Tom Thibodeaux while Jalen Brunson's been sitting on his ass 403 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 6: telling it. 404 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 4: I'd go back to that second quorder and look at it. 405 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 6: Now there's a much different Nick squad against this Pacers team, 406 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 6: which is remarkable. They haven't played since February. Yeah, no, right, 407 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 6: but now we're gonna play three more games after. 408 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 3: This, so. 409 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 4: Little Jesty be careful. 410 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: More on this coming up in a few minutes. The 411 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: next lead one eleven ninety eight, about five minutes left 412 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 1: to go in Game one of the Eastern Conference Finals. 413 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: But from the NFL today, look, it began with a 414 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: lot of drama with the Tush Push not getting banned 415 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 1: after NFL owners had a very contentious meeting where they 416 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 1: voted and they didn't get enough votes to overturn the 417 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: Tush Pushvan band. So it's gonna live for at least 418 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 1: another year. Other big change the NFL as well. We're 419 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 1: talking about how there's no reseting in the playoffs and 420 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: other big things. And then the big story occurs later today, 421 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,959 Speaker 1: a shocker to all of us. Colts owner Jim Ersay 422 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: dies suddenly in his sleep at the age of six, 423 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: and you have seen the plaudits come in for him 424 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: over the course of the path hours a guy that's 425 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 1: out of life, right. We know he liked to get out. 426 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 1: You know, he had one of those robust, grab life 427 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:11,679 Speaker 1: by the horns type of personality. 428 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:12,199 Speaker 5: You've seen him. 429 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 1: He's been very visible and in certain stories where he 430 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: probably shouldn't have been. But you see all the philanthropic work, 431 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: all the great things being said about him, all the 432 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,439 Speaker 1: things he did in and out of the community, and 433 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 1: it's something to have this part of his life be 434 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 1: focused on. But again, the big shock or jim Ers 435 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: passing away at the age of sixty five joining us 436 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 1: now on the hotline to break it all down. Longtime 437 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: NFL inside or Hall of Fame voter, he's on Twitter 438 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:40,879 Speaker 1: at Jason Cole sixty two. Check him out of the 439 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: thirty third team. It is Jason Cole, Jay Cole, what's happening? 440 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 3: Well, listen to this news just I also came out 441 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 3: with a new book. I forgot to tell you guys 442 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:57,159 Speaker 3: about that. Okay, about Robert Taylor, a guy who's a 443 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 3: quadriplegic and former cal rugby player. But we'll get back 444 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 3: to that at the end because Roberts not Roberts said that. 445 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,479 Speaker 3: Jim Or said far more important far more interesting person 446 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 3: to discuss even in death. He was a really he 447 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 3: was really a wonderful guy. You know, obviously troubled, obviously 448 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 3: at issue. You know a lot of a lot of demons. 449 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 3: There a lot of demons, you know, probably from childhood, 450 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 3: given that his dad was a pretty heavy alcoholic too, 451 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 3: But really, you know, an earnest guy. He could actually 452 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 3: have a conversation with and like talk to him about 453 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 3: his family, you'd share things, really actually talk about football 454 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: because he actually came through in football. He was a 455 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 3: he was general manager. Like he worked at understanding the 456 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 3: game better than most owners who you ever run into. Like, 457 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:02,040 Speaker 3: he really did get it in certain ways. Yeah, that 458 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 3: was you know a lot of a lot of very 459 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 3: negative headlines along the way as well.

And 502 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,439 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's kind of you think about it 503 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: happening today when when the owners had the vote on 504 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: the tush push and a lot of things, and you know, 505 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: you and I text us like, hey. 506 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 5: Was was he there at the owners meeting? And You're like, 507 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 5: I don't think he was there. 508 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 1: And that's the first I thought it was that he 509 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: did go for an afternoon nap and and he didn't 510 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: wake up. It was just such an odd thing to 511 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: have it happen, you know, surrounding such a big day 512 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: for all the owners. 513 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 5: In the NFL. 514 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's his daughter's alternate control of the team. 515 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 3: At this point, he'd given up the day to day 516 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 3: because physically he just couldn't get around that much. I mean, 517 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,120 Speaker 3: the back problems they'd had, you know, all the issues 518 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 3: that he had dealt with physically over it over time. 519 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 3: I mean this is on top of the demons, the 520 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 3: abuse issues. Like physically, he's just yeah, he got he 521 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 3: was destroyed by some of the things that happened over 522 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 3: the course of his life. I mean he bent over, 523 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 3: uncomfortable all the time. You could see that the man 524 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 3: was in pain. Right, So at a certain point about 525 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 3: I think it was like four years ago, he gave 526 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,919 Speaker 3: up day to day control and going and go to 527 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 3: the meeting. So I'd be surprised if he was at 528 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 3: this meeting, and that also would have made him for 529 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 3: a much different headline. I'm assuming that he was at 530 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 3: home when that's happened. 531 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 6: Jacol transitioning to the news from earlier today an hour 532 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 6: of filibustering and speeches. Jason Kelsey shows up admonishment for 533 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 6: some terminology used by the Eagles, but the tush push 534 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 6: remains what flipped it. It seemed like it was a foregone conclusion. 535 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 6: It was going into the Dodo land. 536 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 3: I think it's an understand Like, this is football, man, Like, 537 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 3: how is this not a really basic football play? And 538 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 3: I just I always look at this going if this 539 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 3: is this is a goal line drill, right, and if 540 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,160 Speaker 3: you happen to have an advantage in a goal line drill, 541 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 3: why should you take this away? And I get I 542 00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 3: get it that pushing a guy upfield and doing certain 543 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 3: things when when defenders are in helpless positions and not 544 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,400 Speaker 3: prepared for it, it's tough, like when guys run down 545 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 3: to like when offensive linemen run downfield and push their 546 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 3: own runner against a tackler in a one on one situation. 547 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 3: That Brunston's on fire. 548 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 5: By the way, Hey, if. 549 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 1: I'm not allowed to jump in and say stuff, you 550 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:51,439 Speaker 1: can't say stuff. 551 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 3: I just wait, you just he just nailed that. Wow 552 00:25:54,200 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 3: that was another long but whatever. Anyways, but like, this 553 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 3: is football, man, Like, I don't get it. I don't 554 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 3: I don't get why you're taking away something that is 555 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,479 Speaker 3: sort of essential to the game. And I know it's not, 556 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 3: you know, one of the twenty yards playdowns. You like, 557 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 3: sometimes football is just a you know, a one on 558 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 3: is a is a man on man battle for you know, 559 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 3: a couple of inches of real estate and that's what 560 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:31,280 Speaker 3: it's supposed to be sometimes and that's okay, right now, 561 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 3: that's not eight you might be getting nervous. So I 562 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 3: just I just think that, Like here, here's the other 563 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 3: thing that really ticks me off. Why are people who 564 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 3: don't play the game making the rules about how the 565 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 3: game is supposed to be played. And not only don't play, 566 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 3: but don't know how to play this game, don't even 567 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 3: have the first clue of how it's done. And you 568 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,199 Speaker 3: can tell me about competition committees and coaches and all, 569 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 3: but my opinion is the players should be the ones 570 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 3: that make the rules. Now, the players have to have 571 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 3: to sign off on a few things like if they 572 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 3: want if they want hits to the head, they have 573 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 3: to agree not to sue the owners over you know, 574 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 3: cumulative damage, right, like you guys, there has to be 575 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 3: some give and take, right the owners deserve protection over 576 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 3: over long term lawsuits. Right if this is the way 577 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 3: the players want to play, And to me, like the 578 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 3: tush push is a is one that should be arguing 579 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 3: amongst the player reps in the union and in that setting, 580 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:38,359 Speaker 3: and especially against guys actually actually played like the kickers 581 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,240 Speaker 3: who are the player reps should be kicked out of 582 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 3: the room when they when when this is discussed. I mean, 583 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 3: I'm and I'm serious about that, Like they don't belong 584 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 3: in the room, and the quarterbacks don't really belong their 585 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 3: room to that either, But like that's that's the guys 586 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 3: who should be deciding the rules, with obviously the coaches 587 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 3: having a hand in and guiding them and saying, hey, look, 588 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 3: you might want to think about what you're doing in 589 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 3: this situation if you allow for this kind of play. 590 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 3: That's why I just don't understand why the owners are 591 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 3: in on this and they're part of it, because when 592 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 3: the owners become part of it, it's all about, oh, 593 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,239 Speaker 3: are we going to get sued because of this? Are 594 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 3: we going to do? You know? Is this is this bad? 595 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 3: Like you know, they're always changing the rules for reasons 596 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 3: that sometimes don't have anything to do with and with 597 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 3: actual performance and play on the on the field. 598 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,920 Speaker 1: You can follow on Twitter at Jason Cole sixty two, 599 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 1: that is at Jason Cole sixty two thirty third team 600 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: as well Jake. 601 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:43,719 Speaker 6: Robin, Robert Payler, Robert sorry sorry say yes yes your 602 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 6: new but paralyzed. 603 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 3: The powerful Robert Payler, a former Cal rugby player eight 604 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 3: you know, six years ago, eight years ago, got got 605 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 3: paralyzed in a National Championship game, uh for playing for 606 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 3: Cal Rugby.

In the NFL Today, it was voted 709 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 8: that the touch push is gonna stay legal. In twenty 710 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,440 Speaker 8: twenty five, after not enough owners voted to ban the 711 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 8: play that was made famous by the Eagles, the Lions 712 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 8: withdrew their proposal to change playoff receding, and now teams 713 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 8: are also allowed to do an on set kick at 714 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 8: any point if they are trailing in the game. And 715 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 8: the Colts announced that their owner and CEO, Jim Erse 716 00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,959 Speaker 8: passed away peacefully in his sleep this afternoon. 717 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:32,240 Speaker 2: He was sixty five. 718 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 5: Back to you guys, Thank you very much. 719 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 1: MASSI so really quick, it looks like the Pacers are 720 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: going to get the basketball. Here with about twenty eight 721 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 1: seconds left to go down five, Jalen Brunson dishes down 722 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: load to Ogiannunoby, who goes up and kind of gets 723 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: tangled up with Pascal Siakam, and initially it was ruled 724 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: the ball out of bounds off the Pacers. However, it's 725 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: pretty pretty obvious on the replay that Anunoby was the 726 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 1: last guy to touch the ball. So I think the 727 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 1: Pacers are going to get this ball with about twenty 728 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: nine seconds left down five. All the new I mean, defensively, 729 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: all you gotta say is okay, no threes, right, give 730 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: them the let no threes, no threes. And yet they're 731 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: allowing open threes. And Nie Smith looks like Steph Curry. 732 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: It looks like he's he's right. He's running around the 733 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: floor like, Kurt, give me the ball, give me the ball. 734 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:18,719 Speaker 1: I'm taking three. He's seven out of eight from three 735 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: point run. 736 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:19,439 Speaker 3: Yeah. 737 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 4: They have hit five to their last six as a team. 738 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,839 Speaker 6: Uh, you are lucky that your your floor general gets 739 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,880 Speaker 6: to stay on the court though, to get open on 740 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 6: the inbounds got away with a big oles shove that 741 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 6: would have disqualified him. But now we have the drama 742 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 6: twenty nine point nine remaining, so they're. 743 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 5: Still figuring out the replay on this. 744 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:41,319 Speaker 1: They could be looking at it as well, so that's 745 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,240 Speaker 1: kind of there. So if they could rule a fallanc 746 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:46,359 Speaker 1: Yakam who did push Andrew Nobi's arm. So they're gonna 747 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: take a while on this. Coming up next, are we 748 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: talking about a big Knicks game one win and unbelievable 749 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 1: Pacers comeback that could be deflating or over time.

Karl Anthony Towns one for two from the 766 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,320 Speaker 1: free throw line. So now the Pacers and the red 767 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,760 Speaker 1: hot knee Smith, who is hit I think eleven threes 768 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:50,799 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, Pacers have a chance to potentially 769 00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 1: tie this game and send it to overtime. They have 770 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 1: the ball with thirteen seconds left in regulation. The Knicks 771 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 1: commit a foul, so foul on the floor, so now 772 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: make it twelve seconds. Pacers have to run another play 773 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: to inbound again. Still up one twenty four to one 774 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: twenty one. Again, twelve and a half seconds left to 775 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: go in the fourth quarter. 776 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,359 Speaker 4: You didn't think it was gonna be the Nie Smith game, 777 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 4: did you. 778 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 5: Nothing's easy? Nothing is easy, My good. 779 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:18,400 Speaker 4: You were worried about Nemhard. 780 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:20,879 Speaker 6: Now the other guy with any to start his I mean, 781 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 6: he is. 782 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,319 Speaker 1: Eight out of nine from three point range, and he 783 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:29,399 Speaker 1: is he has just simply been unconscious like he's and 784 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 1: he hit his last three because Josh Hart slipped a 785 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 1: little bit. But that's still running and catching and turning 786 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 1: and hitting it. 787 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 5: Even Miller's jealous watching him. 788 00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: So because of the foul on the floor with Nie Smith. 789 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: He's at the free throw. Oh, it looked like he 790 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: was out of band. 791 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:45,399 Speaker 3: Wow, but the. 792 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 1: Foul may have preceded that. Well, the foul may have 793 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: preceded that call. Tyger's to the run. Yeah, they don't 794 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 1: have a challenge either. So with the foul on the floor, 795 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 1: Nie Smith will be shooting two free throws instead of three. 796 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: So the best he could do is cut it to 797 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,760 Speaker 1: one point where the Knicks will still have to inbound 798 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 1: the ball and shoot free throws with probably seven or 799 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: eight seconds left to go. Here again, it was a 800 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,359 Speaker 1: fourteen point lead with two and a half left to go, 801 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: and then all these threes by the Pacers have cut 802 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: this lead now to one point. With just ten seconds 803 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 1: left to go, the Knicks are able to get the 804 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:20,960 Speaker 1: ball in bounds. 805 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:25,439 Speaker 4: Little weird little crash, random bouncing up and down. 806 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, Poganunobi is able to corral the ball at mid court. 807 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,359 Speaker 1: He has fouled. He will be going to the free 808 00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,800 Speaker 1: throw line to shoot two with seven seconds left. Jalen 809 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 1: Brunson and passing the ball out to an Unobi. Great 810 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: vision by him, falls into the crowd and into the 811 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,840 Speaker 1: lap of Nick Legend. Clyde Fraser, who gets up in 812 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 1: huggs Brunson before they go to shoot free throw. 813 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 6: Well, the way he threw the ball down, it was 814 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:51,840 Speaker 6: almost like he was trying to throw it off the 815 00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:52,920 Speaker 6: Indiana defender. 816 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:54,839 Speaker 4: Oh, get it off him. 817 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 6: Bounds Instead, it threads the needle and he finds his 818 00:37:58,480 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 6: way to Clyde and. 819 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 1: Here's your hugs it now.

The final play 849 00:39:25,160 --> 00:39:28,920 Speaker 1: in regulation Tyres Halliburton with the ball for the Pacers. 850 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: He drives down the lane looking to go in, but 851 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:37,320 Speaker 1: the Knicks are there defensively. He dribbles back out behind 852 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 1: the three point line, puts up a shot that bounces 853 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 1: off the back of the rim. The ball bounces up 854 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: higher than the backboard, It goes straight up, It goes 855 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 1: up to where the shot clock is and bounces down 856 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 1: back through. Halliburton immediately does the Reggie Miller choke sign 857 00:39:56,280 --> 00:40:00,520 Speaker 1: towards the Nick bench and Spike Lee. However, his foot 858 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 1: was on the line. It is a two pointer.

Yeah, absolute opposite. 897 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 6: You saw Nie Smith amongst others, and then your nemesis 898 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,880 Speaker 6: Nemhard shining. 899 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,320 Speaker 4: Bright as well. Both and he like neon lights. 900 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, if it's shining on Broadway, it's any and the 901 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,479 Speaker 1: Pacers in the playoffs, and it's the Knicks You're going 902 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 1: to do well.

He was with me until the Nicks eliminated 912 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: the Celtics, and now he's. 913 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 5: Away from it. 914 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:51,759 Speaker 6: He broke the Tocobean peace accord. It's okay, and now 915 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 6: here we are. He's gonna shut down the Avengers. 916 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 4: That's it. 917 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, it's being shut down. Brunting out the 918 00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,959 Speaker 1: free throw line, he hits both free throws. The Knicks 919 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 1: lead at one thirty three one thirty two, with a 920 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 1: little over a minute left to go in overtime. Where 921 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 1: we where if the Knicks lose this game? I don't know, man, 922 00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. If the Knickson win another game this series, 923 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:13,360 Speaker 1: where does it rank? And the all time collapses of 924 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 1: playoff games every twenty years apparently it's Reggie Miller with 925 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,959 Speaker 1: the choke sign. It's Halliburton hitting the shot he thought 926 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:23,400 Speaker 1: would win the game, making the choke sign thinking the 927 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:26,640 Speaker 1: game was over, not realizing his foot was on the line. 928 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 1: So when we wind up going to overtime, they still 929 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: have to play. I mean, just an incredible run here 930 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,120 Speaker 1: in the last few minutes that if the again, if 931 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:38,440 Speaker 1: the Knicks lose this game, Obi Toppen just got a 932 00:43:38,480 --> 00:43:41,879 Speaker 1: rebound dunk former Nick to give the Pacers the lead 933 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 1: with about fifty five seconds left to go. I mean, 934 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 1: i'd really if the Knicks lose this game, I don't 935 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 1: know how you come back from this the rest of 936 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 1: the series. I how you blow a fourteen point lead at. 937 00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:53,399 Speaker 4: Home in Game one? I don't know how you do it. Yeah, 938 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,399 Speaker 4: just said an amazing run. You had. 939 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:59,200 Speaker 6: Haliburton with a good ball, fake defender flies by, misses 940 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 6: the three, but top and comes flying in just in 941 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 6: incredible sequencing. Brunson makes the shot to put the Knicks 942 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 6: ahead by one, but living and dying with each possession? 943 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,800 Speaker 6: Are you and Tyrese Halliburton, who is having the game 944 00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 6: of his life right now. A big drive and dish 945 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:21,560 Speaker 6: for a layup Nembard goes in to give the Pacers 946 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 6: a one thirty six one thirty five lead. Time out 947 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 6: on the floor now with twenty six and a half 948 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 6: seconds left to go, I had to know what to say, like, 949 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:33,160 Speaker 6: this is a heavyweight fight, and sometimes game one can 950 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 6: be everything. Sometimes game one is just game one. 951 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:37,879 Speaker 1: But while I'm telling you, man, if the Knicks lose 952 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 1: this game, I really I don't know how you come 953 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: back from this. 954 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:40,879 Speaker 5: I really don't. 955 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 6: Well, we got cheated out of the final minutes that 956 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:46,759 Speaker 6: we're supposed to be. Here's everybody on celebrity row. I 957 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 6: haven't gotten any of those. He's almost gotten run over 958 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 6: a couple of times, so that's why he's near the 959 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:58,399 Speaker 6: chasers bench. No, he has not as of yet. But yeah, 960 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:00,319 Speaker 6: I don't know that I've actually seen shallow. Did he 961 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,359 Speaker 6: stay home? I don't know. But your guy Nemhard he's 962 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:07,200 Speaker 6: got fifteen all five starters for the Pacers at least 963 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:10,799 Speaker 6: fourteen points scored. Turner had that hot start. He's been 964 00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 6: a bystander here, you know, still rebounding and doing the 965 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:18,160 Speaker 6: other work, but scoring column being filled by everybody else 966 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 6: on this squad right now. Plus add ten from McConnell 967 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:24,319 Speaker 6: off the bench, great balance as you would expect from 968 00:45:24,320 --> 00:45:28,200 Speaker 6: the Pacers squad, but just an insane final two and 969 00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:31,800 Speaker 6: a half minutes of regulation leading to overtime, wide open looks, 970 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 6: good ball movement by the Pacers and attempts to close out, 971 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 6: but you leave your feet, get taken by the ball 972 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 6: fake and then you look around and you got some 973 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:42,800 Speaker 6: wide open looks. 974 00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 5: You know. 975 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 1: That's the thing, is that the two things from this 976 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,920 Speaker 1: game is the Nicks miss two big free throws in 977 00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,719 Speaker 1: the final twenty five seconds. Karl Anthony Towns misses a 978 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 1: free throw and Ogianu Nobi misses a free throw that 979 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,759 Speaker 1: would have made this irrelevant because then it would have 980 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,960 Speaker 1: been here's Halliburton shot, potentially tie the game, but the 981 00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:01,880 Speaker 1: play would have probably unfolded differently because they would have 982 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:05,319 Speaker 1: absolutely needed a three. So that's kind of where it 983 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 1: would be. But the fact that all you have to 984 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 1: do when you're up by that much, with that time left, 985 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 1: with that much time left, I don't know how you 986 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:16,040 Speaker 1: don't just say, Okay, no threes, right, no threes. 987 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 5: That's what it is. No threes. 988 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:20,879 Speaker 1: Don't allow threes, And they just kept finding a way 989 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:23,440 Speaker 1: to get open and get open, and get open. They 990 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:26,840 Speaker 1: kept finding a way to get open, and the Knicks 991 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 1: kept allowing threes when it was clearly something that you 992 00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,239 Speaker 1: needed to not be able to just DISI just don't 993 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,920 Speaker 1: allow it. Let him go, let them go in for layfs, 994 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 1: let them go. Two's are not threes. And they kept 995 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 1: getting threes, and now it looks like the Pacers are 996 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,840 Speaker 1: going to have the ball with the lead, and twenty 997 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,920 Speaker 1: five seconds left, there was a pass from Ogan Nobi 998 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 1: to Jalen Brunson that goes off the hands. Nembard gets 999 00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:55,240 Speaker 1: his hand in there to deflect it, but it looks 1000 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 1: like the ball deflects off and them hard and then 1001 00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 1: hits Jalen Brunson. 1002 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,040 Speaker 5: So the it all goes out of bounds. 1003 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,799 Speaker 1: Right now it's Knicks ball, but it looks like they're 1004 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: gonna reverse it and it's gonna go back to the Pacers. 1005 00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,480 Speaker 1: An awful turnover by the Knicks here. I mean, I'm 1006 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 1: telling you, like I'm seeing the end of this game going. 1007 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:13,840 Speaker 1: This is going to be an all time one of 1008 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 1: the all time worst losses in Knick's history that we're 1009 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:16,799 Speaker 1: looking at right now. 1010 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, Brunson reaching for the ball trying to get it 1011 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:22,480 Speaker 6: in bounds as quickly as he could. You know, one 1012 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,360 Speaker 6: of those I know that's off me kind of moments, 1013 00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:29,400 Speaker 6: and the look on his face, the countenance a bit dejected. 1014 00:47:29,960 --> 00:47:32,719 Speaker 6: We don't normally see that from Brunson, but this one 1015 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 6: a huge play, a huge challenge coming up here as 1016 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 6: we've got eighteen point nine seconds remaining. But to your 1017 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 6: larger point, right, they did everything right. They were able 1018 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,480 Speaker 6: to buy time with Brunson on the bench in the 1019 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 6: second we talked about its seven minutes of your backups 1020 00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,759 Speaker 6: in taking care of business, extending the lead. Later in 1021 00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 6: the game he's in foul trouble. He's on the bench 1022 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 6: taking care of business, extending maintaining the lead. And then 1023 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:00,400 Speaker 6: you have the final two and a half minuts that 1024 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:05,000 Speaker 6: are worse than anything else going out from a twenty 1025 00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 6: four at stand ups and previews, you know, cinema con 1026 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,440 Speaker 6: and all of those kind of things. It looks like 1027 00:48:12,520 --> 00:48:14,520 Speaker 6: it's gonna be the ruling is coming in. It is 1028 00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:18,040 Speaker 6: off Brunson, so they're putting time back on the clock. 1029 00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 6: So twenty seconds now left to go, but the Knicks 1030 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 6: are going to have to foil because the Pacers have 1031 00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 6: the ball they're up on. That is just a horrendous turnover. 1032 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 6: Not a great pass by Ananobe, but still something that 1033 00:48:29,120 --> 00:48:32,640 Speaker 6: Brunson's got to get his hands on, because watching the replay, 1034 00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 6: I don't even know if if never even got his 1035 00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:37,279 Speaker 6: hand on the ball. Looked like he just got his 1036 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:40,480 Speaker 6: hand in there and it went off of Brunson and 1037 00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 6: went out of bounds. I don't even know that he 1038 00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,840 Speaker 6: got his hand on the ball. Yeah, for depending on 1039 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,720 Speaker 6: the camera angle, the one we saw was a bit inconclusive, 1040 00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:54,840 Speaker 6: but certainly it's moot at this point, clearly off Brunson. 1041 00:48:55,440 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 6: On weekend, the ensuing possession right now, still one thirty six, 1042 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:06,360 Speaker 6: one thirty five. Obi Toppin just gets the inbounds pass 1043 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 6: and goes in for a slam. He goes and this 1044 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:12,799 Speaker 6: is an NBA slam dunk contest dump that he goes 1045 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,879 Speaker 6: in for to give the Pacers a one thirty six, 1046 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:19,279 Speaker 6: a one thirty eight, one thirty five lead now with 1047 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:22,080 Speaker 6: fifteen seconds left to go, So no trying to get 1048 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:23,840 Speaker 6: to the free throw line for the Pacers. 1049 00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,160 Speaker 5: They go in get the easy. 1050 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,879 Speaker 1: Bucket and so now it's the Knicks with a three 1051 00:49:28,960 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: point facing a three point deficit, with fifteen seconds left 1052 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,120 Speaker 1: to go. He was fouled on the way up, but 1053 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:38,560 Speaker 1: it doesn't look like they called the foul Again. I'm 1054 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,600 Speaker 1: try trying to do the show and talk about what happened. Yeah, 1055 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 1: he didn't bear the brunt of it either. Fender get 1056 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:48,279 Speaker 1: popped in the face. Yeah, Mitchell Robinson went up and 1057 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 1: clearly committed a foul on top and I don't believe 1058 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:55,000 Speaker 1: he got whistled for it. So I think it's gonna 1059 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,640 Speaker 1: wind up being nick basketball with fifteen seconds left in 1060 00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:00,160 Speaker 1: their down three, even though Brett Goldstein kept yelling where 1061 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:03,319 Speaker 1: so WHI so so where so? 1062 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:05,560 Speaker 7: I got the volume up here, guys, and it was 1063 00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:08,319 Speaker 7: hilarious and you'll you'll hear it during the break. We 1064 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:11,360 Speaker 7: can't play it unless we bleep it, okay, oh okay? Sure, 1065 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,839 Speaker 7: And the ball went off Bronson. When they reversed the call, 1066 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:15,799 Speaker 7: somebody in the crowd yelled. 1067 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 4: Bool duty. 1068 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 1: That was Spike Lee. I'm sure it was spink. Nobody 1069 00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:22,520 Speaker 1: told it. It might have been shallow. 1070 00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 6: May shout, he shout, shout, drunk shout, and an absolute 1071 00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,080 Speaker 6: catastrophe at the garden. What looked like it was going 1072 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 6: to be a crowding achievement and a blowout victory. Now 1073 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,760 Speaker 6: we've got a three point game, nixt looking to inbound 1074 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 6: h with fifteen point three. 1075 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 1: Uh, I mean again, this is gonna be disaster for 1076 00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:43,600 Speaker 1: the Knicks. This is I really, I don't know how 1077 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 1: you would come back after this. Jalen Brunson misses a 1078 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 1: three and it goes. It doesn't even draw iron and 1079 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 1: Karl Anthony Towns three hits the front of the rim 1080 00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:57,040 Speaker 1: with a couple of seconds left to go. The Knicks 1081 00:50:57,160 --> 00:51:00,440 Speaker 1: now the ball is out of bounds with two tense 1082 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 1: of a second left to go. I believe it's Indiana 1083 00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 1: basketball and that's gonna do it. And the Pacers are 1084 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:10,640 Speaker 1: going to absolutely steal Game one in a game the 1085 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:14,319 Speaker 1: Knicks had all but wrapped up. I oh man, I 1086 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,640 Speaker 1: don't know what to say. I really, I don't know 1087 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 1: what to say. I gotta get my mind right, Harmon. 1088 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,759 Speaker 1: I need to time out. No, this was truly I 1089 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:24,000 Speaker 1: need to time out four of it. Like you were calm, 1090 00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,359 Speaker 1: and I got to give you credit, right because it's 1091 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,040 Speaker 1: close game first half. Maybe you were just being nice 1092 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:30,120 Speaker 1: to my ear drums. 1093 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:34,000 Speaker 6: You weren't, you weren't over the top, Or maybe you 1094 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:36,440 Speaker 6: just saw that it was the Eastern Conference Finals, so 1095 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:39,520 Speaker 6: you needed to be measured in your approach either way. 1096 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:44,239 Speaker 6: I was very uh concerned because we didn't get your 1097 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,759 Speaker 6: normal Nicks vandom. 1098 00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:49,319 Speaker 5: It's like who took it? Who took your soul? 1099 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 1: I mean we were we were at the next that 1100 00:51:50,960 --> 00:51:52,919 Speaker 1: would be the Pacers are up by fourteen with three 1101 00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:55,799 Speaker 1: and a half left, and and somehow a perfect ending 1102 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:57,959 Speaker 1: by the Pacers is gonna wind up when they're gonna 1103 00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 1: wind up winning this game no matter who gets the basket. Well, 1104 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:02,759 Speaker 1: there's two tents in a second left, so it's gonna 1105 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 1: be an incredible Knicks collapse again. I don't know how 1106 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 1: you come back the rest of the series for this. 1107 00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 1: I an't too wide open looks here. On this last possession, 1108 00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:10,799 Speaker 1: I could see. I coun see the Knicks losing by 1109 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:12,840 Speaker 1: twenty in Game two. I can see it happening. 1110 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:16,719 Speaker 5: I can there's no stopping that will be topping. Unreal
