You've got a good no one am 26 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 3: wake up call for us. A little bit of traffic 27 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 3: on the one O one slash four h five, but 28 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,960 Speaker 3: we are rocking and rolling here and ready to go. 29 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 3: And since we're back in this chair and it's been 30 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 3: a little while, it's appropriate we talk about somebody who 31 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 3: is also back. Jason Tatum, less than ten months after 32 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 3: suffering the achilles tear in the playoff game against the 33 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 3: New York Knicks, will be in the lineup for the 34 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 3: Boston Celtics coming up later on tonight against the Dallas Mavericks. 35 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 3: I know, Lvar, you've dealt with the achilles issue before. 36 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 3: I'm kind of surprised that he's back this soon. But 37 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 3: here we go with the return of Jason Tatum to 38 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 3: an already really good Boston Celtics team who probably didn't 39 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 3: expect they were going to be. 40 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 4: In this spot at this point in the year. 41 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 5: A really good Jalen Brown led Boston Celtics team, we 42 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 5: should add and listen, I look at it like this. 43 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 6: The. 44 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 5: Professional even just any type of competition, right college, pro, 45 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 5: even high school. When you've established yourself as the guy. 46 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 5: You're the franchise. Things are handled a certain type of way, 47 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 5: you do things a certain type of way, You're treated 48 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 5: a certain type of way. The respect factor is very different. 49 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:51,119 Speaker 5: When you get injured, there's a moment of truth. Right, 50 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 5: it either solidifies further solidifies your efforts that you've put 51 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 5: forth as a healthy player and how the team has 52 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 5: been able to accomplish. 53 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 4: And when that that. 54 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 5: That participation is gone due to an injury, it either 55 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 5: shows yep, Jason Tatum is the reason why we are 56 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:22,839 Speaker 5: able to win. We got a championship, world title. We 57 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 5: we're set for. 58 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 4: The future. 59 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 5: Right, you got a sidekick in Jalen Brown, But Jason 60 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 5: Tatum is the guy. Jason Tatum goes down. But yet 61 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 5: this team is second in the Eastern Conference. They're seventy 62 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 5: forty one and twenty one on the season, and they're 63 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 5: in great position to make a deep run in the 64 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 5: NBA playoffs. It has emerged that Jalen Brown could be 65 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 5: in the conversation of being the new face and franchise 66 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 5: player for this Celtics team. So now Jason Tatum is 67 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 5: tasked with not only coming back and playing, but now 68 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 5: he may be saddled with the pressure of coming back 69 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 5: as quickly as he possibly can before you realize that 70 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 5: the value of you being the franchise guy all but 71 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 5: dissipates fully from the situation. 72 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: It's a really interesting call by Boston, by Tatum, because 73 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 3: if they weren't this good, I wonder if this is 74 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 3: even a conversation, because if you look at two other 75 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 3: examples around the league, Damian Lillard and Tyrese Haliburton both 76 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 3: tore their achilles in the playoffs last year, there's not 77 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 3: even a thought that they're gonna come back, because those 78 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 3: two teams are awful. Okay, the highlight of the Blazer 79 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 3: season thus far was a guy with the ruptured achilles 80 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 3: winning the three point con which. 81 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 5: By the way, he went back to the Blazer right, 82 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 5: considering that he tore it somewhere else. 83 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, they didn't need them there. 84 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, So the two highlights for the Blazers this year, 85 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 3: not to uh, not to call out the Blazers fan base, 86 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 3: but your two highlights are an injured guy winning the 87 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 3: three point contest and your coach involved in some poker scheme. Okay, 88 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 3: so like you got card counters and three point shootout 89 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 3: winners you don't have a good team, all right, maybe 90 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 3: maybe a little bit better and expected. And then Indiana 91 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 3: is awful. Okay, whatever happened last year in Indiana, they 92 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 3: are the diaper fire of the East. They might finish 93 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 3: with the worst record in the league. And so the 94 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 3: Pacers and Blazers are like, hey, guys, take your time. 95 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 3: Take does take your time. You know, we've got a 96 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 3: legitimate excuse this year we're terrible. All of a sudden, 97 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 3: Boston starts out the year and it's like, whoa Nobody 98 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 3: thought this was gonna happen. There was the feeling was, 99 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 3: hey man, it's a throwaway year. And it's not even 100 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 3: just the Jason Tatum stuff. Al Horford gone, Drew Holliday 101 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 3: gone on, Chris SOPs porzingis gone. Those were all key 102 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 3: members of the title team just a couple of years ago. 103 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 3: But they were trying to get below the second apron. 104 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 3: So they just said, hey man, these are salary cap casualties, 105 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 3: is what it is. This isn't our year, Our best 106 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 3: players gone. We'll just roll out, We'll try and compete 107 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,240 Speaker 3: as hard as we can. Maybe we'll sneak in and 108 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 3: be a seven or eight team, will be in the 109 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 3: play in tournament whatever, but we're just gonna roll this season. 110 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,559 Speaker 3: Then we really going to focus on twenty twenty seven. 111 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden, they're this through sixty 112 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 3: plus games, and I just wonder, are you making this 113 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 3: decision if not for the fact that this team's a 114 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 3: legitimate title contender, especially with Tatum back. 115 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 5: It's again, the points you make are accurate points, right. 116 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 5: The teams that you're discussing, they aren't competitive teams. You 117 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 5: look at this Celtics team and where they were at 118 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 5: and the conversations that were we're ensuing that we're taking 119 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 5: place in real time. It was always Jason Tatum and 120 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 5: Jaylen Brown and being in second place. Jason Tatum is 121 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 5: not available all season long, and Jalen Brown is averaging 122 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 5: what is it, twenty nine points seven rebounds per game, 123 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 5: and they're a top the Eastern Eastern Conference. So there's 124 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 5: second second place. If you're looking at where things go 125 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 5: from here on out, does it go back to Jason 126 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 5: Tatum and Jalen Brown or does it stay Jalen Brown 127 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 5: and Jason Tatum and insert Jason Tatum that I think 128 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 5: that that is a very real conversation. I think the 129 00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 5: Celtics feel confident about where they're at outside of there 130 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 5: being some really really big names like Sga is in 131 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 5: pole position to get MVP again. 132 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 4: You're seeing what if. 133 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 5: I don't know if y'all watched Winby last night, but 134 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 5: Wemby is balling. 135 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 3: Man. 136 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 4: I saw him hanging outside of a car dealership. There's 137 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 4: some sale going on. 138 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 5: As long as this desk, his foot is, as long 139 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 5: as this desk were sitting there doing this. 140 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 3: Him and chet Holmren should just go as win puppets 141 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 3: for Halloween the next seventy years.

The tip of his 145 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 5: toe from getting a rebound is at mid court. In 146 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 5: two steps. Oh yeah, the tip of his toe is 147 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 5: at mid court and two steps. 148 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 4: Yeah, he doesn't have one. 149 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 5: They're talking about Michael Jordan and Doctor j doing dunks 150 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 5: from from the free throw line. Wemby's toe he in 151 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 5: his reach. He could probably move it back to I 152 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,200 Speaker 5: don't know, Mick. Of course, we're gonna start seeing Winby 153 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 5: takeoff and he's gonna do the dunk contest. He's gonna 154 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 5: take off for court and dunk the ball like that 155 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 5: never seen before. His ass hit long brouh and, and 156 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 5: his footstill gonna be on the ground at midcourt when. 157 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 4: He takes off, and he's just a super stretch. 158 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 5: Outside of these high profile guys being up for the MVP, 159 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 5: Jalen Brown's name is in the conversation for league MVP 160 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 5: this year, some of them as high as two. DeMarcus 161 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 5: Cousins has gone on record says he's as high as 162 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,719 Speaker 5: the second best player in the NBA, all the way 163 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 5: up to six to eight, where his name falls in 164 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 5: terms of best Player MVP. 165 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 4: But if we're being real, if we're. 166 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 5: Being real, does Jalen Brown have the same supporting cast 167 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 5: that SGA does? 168 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 4: Does he have the. 169 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 5: Same supporting cast as what wim Bin Yama has. I 170 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 5: would say, No, you just mentioned some Orford's gone, Jason 171 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 5: Tatum hasn't been around. There's a different group of people. 172 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 5: It's a new group of people this season for the Celtics, 173 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 5: and yet they're playing at a high level, which would 174 00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 5: lead to the conversation of is he the most valuable 175 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 5: player to his team? Maybe they're not the best team, 176 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 5: but they're certainly up there with the best teams, so 177 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 5: you can use the criteria that they have a really 178 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 5: competitive team, a good team that's ranked high because you have. 179 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 4: To win for them to consider you an MVP. 180 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 5: And now you see Jason Tatum sitting back watching like, 181 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 5: I can't let the ship get too far. 182 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 4: He's swimming, bro. 183 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 3: It's not boarding the ship. 184 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 5: That ship has sailed. But can he catch it and 185 00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 5: ken he board the ship and and re establish himself 186 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 5: for what it was that he once was before the injury. 187 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 3: And that's what I wonder is does he feel like 188 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 3: like if they were, you know, a five hundred team. 189 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 4: Is he in any rush to get back? 190 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 7: Nah? 191 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 3: Nah, take your time, Take your time, Take your time. 192 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 3: And I can understand the approach of well, if you're 193 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,079 Speaker 3: doing this good without him, why would you even force 194 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 3: the issue? But I wonder how much of this is him? 195 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 3: How much of this is Tatum going, Man, I want 196 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 3: back in like I want And that's why I asked, 197 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 3: because you went through the Achilles what a retired like? 198 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 4: Yeah? 199 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 5: Like, what does that look like? That thing had a 200 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 5: grown man in tears bruh. And I got a pretty 201 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 5: high paying threshold and I limped. I limped for like 202 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 5: two three years after I got that surgery. Like it 203 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:49,319 Speaker 5: was a very painful. I've been through some painful things both, yeah, 204 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 5: you know, both both a lean and a limp. You know, 205 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 5: because when you when you yeah, when you're moving around 206 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 5: with that hammer, sometimes you and sometimes you limp. But 207 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 5: this one in particular was based off of me limping 208 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 5: because my achilles tendont was really tight, it was really sore, 209 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 5: and it just felt like if you if you don't 210 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 5: know what it feels like to injure a part as 211 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 5: important as your achilles, you realize it after. And I 212 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 5: likened it to like air and attire. I didn't realize 213 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 5: you could say, okay, air and attire for your feet 214 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,839 Speaker 5: and for your legs. But it really felt like the 215 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 5: bounce and the reactiveness of my foot was gone. It 216 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 5: was gone. Like the movement of how you pop off 217 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 5: of your toes and on your foot, and that that 218 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 5: torque that goes through the bottom of your leg into 219 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 5: your calf muscle and then shoots up into your quads 220 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 5: and then back into them glutes. It was gone. It 221 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 5: was gone, and so you have to figure out many 222 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 5: have done it. I mean, it's very commonplace to come 223 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,559 Speaker 5: back from that type of injury and that type of procedure. 224 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 5: Many have done it, but it is very difficult, and 225 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 5: it is time consuming. It's almost as time consuming, and 226 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 5: it's almost I mean, it's. 227 00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 4: The biggest I believe it's the biggest. 228 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 5: Ligament in your body, your acl I mean, you're you're 229 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 5: Achilles tendon. It's the biggest tendon in your body. And 230 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:26,640 Speaker 5: and it's just that's a difficult injury to come back 231 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 5: from and be effective like you once were, let alone 232 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 5: come back in an abbreviated amount of time to do. 233 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,640 Speaker 3: So we're gonna catch up with doctor David Chow coming 234 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 3: up later on as soon as he gets done sparring 235 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 3: Ryan Leaf at an octagon somewhere, whenever that gets gets 236 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 3: figured out. But but I bring that up because Reggie 237 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 3: Miller was on the Dan Patrick Show, which you can 238 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 3: hear on many of these Fox Sports radio affiliates, and 239 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 3: he sort of explained the reasoning why some feel that 240 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 3: Tatum is also coming back sooner than a Tyrese Haliburton 241 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 3: and a Dame Lillard. 242 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 4: Let's take a listen. 243 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 7: The best thing if there was knock on wood the 244 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 7: best thing. When he tore his achilles in game five. 245 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 7: I believe in New York that the doctor was right there, 246 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 7: that they attached it right away. And the thinking was 247 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 7: the body didn't even know that it had that traumatic experience. 248 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 7: That's how quickly, within twenty four hours they had the 249 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 7: surgery on the achilles. So that's why he is so 250 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 7: far ahead of schedule versus a Damian Lillard or Tyrese 251 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 7: Halliburton is because they had the surgery within twenty four hours. 252 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 3: You're not buying that. Hell no, you know, Reggie Miller MT. 253 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 3: You're not gonna buy his thought process there. 254 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 5: First of all, the body is way more intelligent than 255 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 5: any doctor that will ever work on you. 256 00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, and look at it, Jason Tatum after the injury, 257 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 3: sure like his body knew what was going on. 258 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 5: Don't give it time to know that it's torn like 259 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,000 Speaker 5: uh like then then just finished the game. 260 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 4: He looked like the guy going through the woodship are 261 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 4: on Fargo. 262 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 3: How how much time is that that you have that 263 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:22,200 Speaker 3: to to elapse before your body knew that that's your dad? 264 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 5: You know, like they just give him some mouth to 265 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 5: mouth before he realized that he died, you know, it's 266 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 5: a theory. 267 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 4: I love Reggie Miller, but. 268 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 3: I'm not in on this one. I'm not you heard 269 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 3: dad like, oh really, huh? Like go to break? 270 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 4: Reggie is he's officially lost. 271 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 3: And that's you know, and he's passing the message on 272 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 3: from whatever you know was said on the documentary. I 273 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 3: just look, and people heal differently and people heal faster. 274 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 4: That is true. I mean people heal different. 275 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 3: Adrian Peterson came back from that knee injury and in 276 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 3: what and was like there was no difference between when 277 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 3: he came back from knee injury and when he didn't 278 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 3: other than you know, not being able to keep his 279 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 3: left hand up in a scuffle after a poker game. 280 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 3: But that again, we're not bringing up the old stuff. 281 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 3: But so there's different people healed differently. I understand that 282 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 3: timelines can be a little different. It just feels like 283 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 3: a lot of this was sped up because of how 284 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 3: the team is done without him. If they were five hundred, 285 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 3: if they were below five hundred, I don't think there's 286 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 3: a shot in hell he could. 287 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 5: That would have been a better question to ask Reggie Miller. 288 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 5: That would have been a better question, like did not 289 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 5: happen with Clay and Steph Curry. Wasn't Clay Thompson the 290 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 5: main dude? And then in some way, somehow, I don't 291 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 5: know if injury was connected to it, but didn't Steph 292 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 5: Curry like take the reins like they you know, like 293 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 5: became the main guy and it never changed, never turned back. 294 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 5: He became the franchise guy. He became the face of 295 00:16:56,520 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 5: the franchise, legend, hall of Fame or goat, there's not 296 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 5: going to be a better player that has ever played 297 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 5: for the Golden State Warriors then Golden State. 298 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, Golden State Warriors. 299 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 5: Then Steph Curry. So I think this is a necessity move. 300 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 3: Whether that's the entirety of it. It doesn't have to 301 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 3: be untrue that he wants to come back and he 302 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,959 Speaker 3: wants to play, of course, but if you're not going 303 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 3: to add into the equation the amount of pressure mounting 304 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 3: on Jason Tatum looking at this Jalen Brown lad team, 305 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 3: Like imagine if Michael Jordan went out and was injured 306 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 3: due to acl or achilles tendon injury and while he's out, 307 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 3: Scottie Pippen is just going nuts. 308 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 4: Look at look at the. 309 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:54,119 Speaker 3: Nick Foles, Carson Wentz stuff. Carson Wentz was never the same. 310 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 3: It was never the same, Like he don't have a 311 00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 3: he don't have a statue. 312 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 4: And he was on that team. 313 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 3: That knee injury that he suffered against the Rams at 314 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 3: the Coliseum, which by the way, is an outhouse, or. 315 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 4: At least it was back then. 316 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 3: But that injury he suffered at the Coliseum that changed 317 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 3: the course of his career. 318 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 4: Because where's he? Where's he now? I think he's in Minnesota? 319 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:17,840 Speaker 4: Is he he's still in the league. 320 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 3: I think there it is because I think he always 321 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 3: felt like, Wow, I was on track to be an 322 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,399 Speaker 3: MVP and potentially a Super Bowl champion as a starter 323 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 3: and maybe a Super Bowl MVP, and instead my backup 324 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 3: went in there and did it. He was I don't 325 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 3: think he ever got over there. Bro. 326 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 4: They call the place went win Sylvania. 327 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, there was a moment in time where they said Winsylvania. 328 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 5: That's how well he was doing that season. You couldn't 329 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 5: grow any more hype and excitement around the players. So 330 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 5: you're one hundred percent spot on in that that that reference. 331 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 5: And I say Jalen Brown is a number one guy 332 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 5: on of the NBA Dames and also. 333 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 4: By the way, when they won their title, who is 334 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 4: the MVP of those finals? Jalen Brown. 335 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 3: So like, it's not it's not as if you know 336 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 3: this is a real surprise, but it does. It does 337 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 3: bring up an interesting dynamic of Amen, what does that? 338 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 3: What does that look like? 339 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 5: I'm the captain of his ship?

Let's set it up. We all heard you 454 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 5: say you can be any NFL player. We can fight 455 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 5: in April. The NFL Draft is in Pittsburgh. We can 456 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,400 Speaker 5: fight NFL Draft weekend. Let's make it happen, to which 457 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 5: Logan Paul responded, A, you're not in the NFL B 458 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 5: you can actually fight. So I'd have to probably properly trained, 459 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 5: meaning I'd have to step away from WWE, which I 460 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 5: won't do, especially not for you. See, there's no money 461 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,919 Speaker 5: here because you're not a draw. Prove me otherwise, And 462 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 5: he said, of course you want the opportunity. I'm a 463 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 5: gold mine for retirees like you say so. 464 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 4: But he's right. 465 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 10: Unfortunately for Bell, it's true fair that all that's fair 466 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 10: all that people would go in Pittsburgh for a draft 467 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 10: if Le'Veon Bell was fighting Logan Paul, So he's wrong 468 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 10: about that. 469 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 4: He will be a drawing now. 470 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 3: Earlier today, Logan Paul posted on x he said my 471 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,719 Speaker 3: one million dollar open bet to fight NFL players has 472 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 3: caused an uproar. 473 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 4: Here's the update. 474 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 3: Nobody is willing to put a million dollars in scrow 475 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 3: and be flown here to Puerto Rico, all expenses paid 476 00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 3: in box with three professional judges. They all want to 477 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 3: formalize this with a streamer, venue, press conferences, et cetera. 478 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 3: Ie get paid to fight, but not risk their own money. 479 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 3: But I don't have time nor interest in that. I 480 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 3: won't step away from WWE to coordinate and train for 481 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 3: an event. But if any player wants to actually put 482 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 3: up a million dollars in fight at my gym with 483 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 3: official referees and judges, show yourselves. That includes you Le'Veon Bell. Also, 484 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 3: if they want no cameras, I'm down. 485 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 4: So look like he's just looking for a fight. You know, 486 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 4: he just wants to be not fight. 487 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 3: He's not. 488 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 5: He's looking for what he's getting and it's brilliant. You're 489 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 5: getting national attention for doing it. Saw Merriman just proposed 490 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 5: having boxing matches, fighting matches, MMA matches on NFL network. 491 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 5: He just proposed this not too long ago. I'd be 492 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 5: shocked if Logan Paul didn't catch on, And because those 493 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 5: guys all run the same circles, I would be shocked 494 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 5: if if Logan Paul didn't hear Sean talking about it 495 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 5: and beat them to the punch. In terms of getting 496 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 5: national exposure for calling out football players, I think it 497 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 5: would be interesting if there became a fight league where 498 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 5: former players could actually fight and fight on NFL NFL platforms. 499 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 5: I think it would be a great idea. Some of 500 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 5: these guys still want to compete. How do you compete. 501 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 5: You're not going to compete in the game, You're not 502 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 5: going to continue to be an active player. But guys 503 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 5: still stay in shape, do a lot with their bodies, train, coach, 504 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 5: do a lot of different things. Why not create an 505 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 5: outlet for them to be able to still compete and 506 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 5: it be monetized. I think it would be a great idea. 507 00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 5: So I don't think this is about Logan Paul trying 508 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 5: to really thump.

But all getting aside, Doctor Chow, 732 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 3: Happy to have you with us. 733 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 4: How are things? 734 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 6: I'm doing great? Look at you guys big time here? 735 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, we are big time. So let me ask you. 736 00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:23,240 Speaker 3: You obviously were the physician team physician in the NFL 737 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:26,479 Speaker 3: for almost two decades. You've been around this stuff for 738 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 3: years and years and years. When you see Jason Tatum 739 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 3: return this quickly, Yet somebody like a Dame Lillard and 740 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 3: a Tyrese Halliburton there's not even a thought they'd come 741 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 3: back this year. How much of this do you think 742 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 3: was sped up based on the fact that the Celtics 743 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 3: have a chance to win a title. 744 00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 6: Well, return to play is always multifactorial. Not every injury 745 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 6: is the same, not every recovery is the same, not 746 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:55,360 Speaker 6: every rehab is the same, and not every situation is 747 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 6: the same. This is a nice quick recovery for Jason Tatum, 748 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,480 Speaker 6: hats off to him, but it's also not the quickest 749 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:07,360 Speaker 6: one in NBA history. I mean, Wesley Matthews, Kobe Bryant, 750 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 6: Rudy Gay, Dominic Wilkins, Chauncey Phillips all came back a 751 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,799 Speaker 6: little bit quicker than Jason Tatum. Of course, we all 752 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,799 Speaker 6: look at the longer returns for Kevin Durant, who did 753 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 6: return to one hundred percent, and we say this is 754 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 6: nice quick return, and you mentioned some other guys, but 755 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:27,280 Speaker 6: return to play doesn't mean someone is one hundred percent. 756 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,839 Speaker 6: And as great as Tatum is done, I doubt he's 757 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 6: Jason Tatum at one hundred percent when he comes back 758 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 6: to play tonight. I think it's spot play working himself 759 00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 6: in with the Celtics, who have a very good team 760 00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:44,319 Speaker 6: playoff bound, figuring out what his role is and get 761 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 6: acclimated ahead of the playoffs. But still kudos to him 762 00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 6: for all the hard work that he is engendered. 763 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 4: All Right, So. 764 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:57,280 Speaker 5: We talked a few a lot, I guess, some different 765 00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 5: topics at the Super Bowl, but one of the things 766 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 5: was the Max Crosby conversation, and you know, the concerns 767 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 5: about what he may or may not have going on, 768 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 5: But what is the do you have a latest update 769 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 5: on Max Crosby's health. Was this more a shutting him 770 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 5: down based off of where the team was, or was 771 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,879 Speaker 5: it based off of really protecting him and what would 772 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 5: perceive to be, you know, a sore knee. 773 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,800 Speaker 6: Look, I'm not inside the building in terms of rumors 774 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,839 Speaker 6: and what's going on. Look at Mike Silver, Jay Glaziers, 775 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 6: others reporting the possible trade and that he's done. But 776 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 6: from a medical perspective, I think the narrative that we 777 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 6: had in December that the Raiders were tanking, they were 778 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 6: shutting Max Crosby down against his will, is really not correct. 779 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 6: They were shutting him down for his own good. It 780 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 6: turns out it was a meniscus repair, not a trim. 781 00:42:55,480 --> 00:43:00,560 Speaker 6: Meniscus trim is a much smaller surgery, quicker recovery. Miniscus 782 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:04,480 Speaker 6: repair is much longer. As a matter of fact, obviously 783 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:08,000 Speaker 6: I haven't examined Max Crosby, but I would imagine technically 784 00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 6: he does not pass a physical today because it's only March. 785 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 6: It's only three months from the meniscus repair. Meniscus repair 786 00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 6: recoveries are minimum four to six months, and so that 787 00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:24,520 Speaker 6: may be what is complicating the potential trade, not just 788 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:28,000 Speaker 6: the asking price, but he has to pass the physical, 789 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 6: and no trade is consummated or final until a physical 790 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 6: is passed. If he's wanting to get traded, certainly he 791 00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 6: could share his electronic or other medical records so a 792 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,880 Speaker 6: team could project him to be healthy. But as of today, 793 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 6: I don't think he passes a physical, and maybe there 794 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 6: is a role in that in terms of teams not 795 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:51,799 Speaker 6: pulling the trigger or perhaps not beating the asking price yet. 796 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,959 Speaker 3: Doctor David Choud joining us here on Fox Sports Radio, 797 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 3: LeVar Arrington Jonas Knox in. 798 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 4: For The Herd. Let me ask you one thing, because 799 00:43:58,600 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 4: we were kind of kicking this around. 800 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,800 Speaker 3: Just to go back quickly on the Jason Tatum stuff, 801 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 3: Reggie Miller spoke on the Dan Patrick Show and was 802 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:11,000 Speaker 3: mentioning that, you know, based on the documentary and sort 803 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 3: of sort of how things timeline wise happened. Listen to 804 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 3: Reggie Miller's explanation as to what he saw in watching 805 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 3: the Tatum documentary as to why he's back this quickly. 806 00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 7: The best thing if there was knock on wood, the 807 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 7: best thing. When he tore his achilles in Game five, 808 00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:30,959 Speaker 7: I believe in New York that the doctor was right there, 809 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:34,200 Speaker 7: that they attached it right away, and the thinking was 810 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 7: the body didn't even know that it had that traumatic experience. 811 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,400 Speaker 7: That's how quickly, within twenty four hours they had the 812 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 7: surgery on the achilles. So that's why he is so 813 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 7: far ahead of schedule versus Damian Lillard or Tyrese Halliburton 814 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:50,359 Speaker 7: is because. 815 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 2: They had. 816 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 3: When you hear that, do you buy that thought that 817 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,759 Speaker 3: because the doctor happened to be there, they got the 818 00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 3: surgery done so quickly the body didn't recognize the traumat 819 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:02,839 Speaker 3: one unders Does that make sense to you as from 820 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:03,840 Speaker 3: a medical standpoint. 821 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,000 Speaker 6: I love Reggie Miller, and I'll take all kinds of 822 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,839 Speaker 6: three point shooting advice from him, But I don't know 823 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:14,320 Speaker 6: that this is and there's any medical factual basis for this. Certainly, 824 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,799 Speaker 6: doing the surgery in one day is perhaps better than 825 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 6: doing it in a week or two, which is what 826 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,319 Speaker 6: happens in the normal world for us mere mortals. But 827 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 6: I don't think if the body recognizes that there's a 828 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 6: tear immediately, Jason Tatum recognized there's a tear immediately, could 829 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 6: there be a little less swelling in there? Okay, maybe, 830 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 6: But I think it's his hard work rehab and sometimes 831 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 6: the type of tear that allows him to return, and 832 00:45:40,600 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 6: quite honestly, where the Celtics are where he really wants 833 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 6: to return. Whereas no offense to Kevin Durant and Kevin 834 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 6: Durant situation, who tore it in that NBA Finals, besides 835 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,720 Speaker 6: being a big man seven footer, and besides it being June. 836 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:59,920 Speaker 6: He waited all that next season and into the next final, 837 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:02,840 Speaker 6: into the following season to make sure he really was 838 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,200 Speaker 6: one hundred percent, and when he came back, he really 839 00:46:05,239 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 6: was one hundred percent. This is why I'm saying I'm 840 00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:09,959 Speaker 6: not sure Jason Tatum is one hundred percent right now. 841 00:46:10,040 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 6: I'm not saying he can't come back and be effective. 842 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 6: What Reddy says is awesome, but I would say is 843 00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 6: the recovery for achilles is also being accelerated by other things. 844 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:23,640 Speaker 6: Blood Flow restriction therapy is part of it. I've seen 845 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 6: in that same documentary that Jason Tatum has some of 846 00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 6: those tourniquet type devices on to help blood flow restriction 847 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:35,200 Speaker 6: to help healing. That is something that we saw Aaron 848 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,920 Speaker 6: Rodgers do when he tried to return in the same 849 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 6: season in the NFL. Didn't make it back because the 850 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 6: Jets didn't make the playoffs. But there's a lot of 851 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 6: things accelerating the recovery. I think only a very smart part. 852 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 6: I mean, look, I'd love it to get credit to 853 00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:53,279 Speaker 6: say the doctor was there and therefore we really helped out, 854 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 6: which you know is great. And I helped. The doctor 855 00:46:56,239 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 6: helped out certainly from a psychological perspective and being there 856 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 6: and getting the right diagnosis and reassuring Jason Tatum on 857 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:07,800 Speaker 6: his return. But the body does recognize a rupture or 858 00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 6: a tear immediately. 859 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 5: Okay, and looking at where Jason Tatum is, is there 860 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:22,320 Speaker 5: any risk of there being any type of re injury 861 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:24,319 Speaker 5: of any kind of any sort. 862 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,879 Speaker 6: Well, when you say any risk, the answer is yes. 863 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 6: And I'm not trying to scare Celtics fans and I'm 864 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 6: not saying he's not ready. But you know, any sort 865 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:36,680 Speaker 6: of quick eccentric load, is the Achilles as strong today 866 00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 6: as it will be months from now? Answer is probably no. 867 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,760 Speaker 6: This is why Durant took, you know, five hundred days 868 00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 6: to return. Kudos to Tatum for wanting to return, but 869 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:49,400 Speaker 6: I don't think once again he's one hundred percent and 870 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,479 Speaker 6: I'll give you something else. He's not one hundred percent 871 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,279 Speaker 6: safe if you really want to talk about it, and 872 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,879 Speaker 6: I hope I don't jinx the man on the other side. 873 00:47:56,920 --> 00:48:00,400 Speaker 6: It's not uncommon to have a second Achilles happen after first. 874 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:04,240 Speaker 6: We've seen it in the NFL in many instances. Terrell 875 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 6: Suggs is one that comes to mind, So I hope 876 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:10,280 Speaker 6: saying that doesn't place any jinks on Jason Tatum. 877 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,800 Speaker 3: Doctor David Chowd joining us here on Fox Sports Radio, 878 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:17,319 Speaker 3: LeVar Arrington Jonas Knox in for the Herd, What can 879 00:48:17,360 --> 00:48:20,840 Speaker 3: you tell us about Caleb Downs the prospect he was 880 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 3: at the combine. There was a medical red flag something 881 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:27,239 Speaker 3: about the ACL what can you tell us about that situation? 882 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 6: And it is something to monitor, it's something to monitor, 883 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:33,800 Speaker 6: but I don't make a lot of it. First of all, 884 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 6: not at all distrusting the reporter that said it, not 885 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:41,120 Speaker 6: distrusting the source or a scout that said it. But 886 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 6: in my time in the NFL, I've been to twenty 887 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,160 Speaker 6: combines and I always met with the GM or assistant GM. 888 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:49,640 Speaker 6: It was never with a scout. And therefore there's the 889 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:52,600 Speaker 6: game of telephone that can happen. And let me tell 890 00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:55,280 Speaker 6: you something. If you're talking about a player getting flagged 891 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 6: at combines, out of the three hundred and thirty players 892 00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:00,960 Speaker 6: that are there, there aren't one or two at most 893 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 6: at our flag to extent, which is do not draft, 894 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 6: You cannot draft them. They're probably about thirty or forty 895 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:13,240 Speaker 6: or so, sometimes up to fifty red flags where someone 896 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:17,719 Speaker 6: has an issue that currently at the combines. They don't 897 00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:20,759 Speaker 6: pass the physical, but they could project the pass the physical, 898 00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:23,640 Speaker 6: so it's sort of a stop sign there. And there's 899 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 6: probably another a third of the three hundred and thirty 900 00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 6: one hundred or more that have a yellow flag, which 901 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:33,279 Speaker 6: is some history of injury that might affect their longevity 902 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:36,280 Speaker 6: or something down the road, but that doesn't always affect 903 00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:39,319 Speaker 6: their draft status at all. So I guess what I'm 904 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,440 Speaker 6: saying is just because someone is flagged, I'd say a 905 00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 6: third of athletes and the combines are flagged in some way, 906 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:47,880 Speaker 6: but that doesn't mean they're going to drop in the 907 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:51,920 Speaker 6: draft or be undraftable. And I'm old enough that when 908 00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,799 Speaker 6: I first started going to combines, GMS would tell me, 909 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 6: is this guy going to be our left tackle for 910 00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:59,399 Speaker 6: the next twelve to fifteen years. Well, by the time 911 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,200 Speaker 6: I was done, the question was is this guy going 912 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 6: to get us through? Get through his first contract? Is 913 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 6: all they cared about, right, And there are other instances too. 914 00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 6: You know, there was a draft pick Sony and Michelle 915 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:14,680 Speaker 6: for the Patriots and the thirty second pick in the 916 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:16,880 Speaker 6: first round where we said he's got the gender knees 917 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:19,200 Speaker 6: and he's not going to last. But guess what, the 918 00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:21,919 Speaker 6: Patriots rode him to a super Bowl in his rookie year. 919 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:24,399 Speaker 6: He did not have a long career, but they wrote 920 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,719 Speaker 6: him to a super Bowl in that first year. So 921 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 6: there's all sorts of reasons for picking players, and I 922 00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:33,400 Speaker 6: don't make a ton out of the kleb Downs report 923 00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 6: so far. 924 00:50:37,080 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 3: One last one for you here, doctor Chow. Patrick Mahomes, 925 00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:45,360 Speaker 3: what's the realistic timeline for him? Because we're talking about 926 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 3: you know, these moves Kansas City is making, you know, 927 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 3: they're trading away you know, star players on defense, they're 928 00:50:51,080 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 3: restructuring contracts. We're looking at this is is this the 929 00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:57,160 Speaker 3: end of the run for Kansas City? Is a legitimate 930 00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 3: Super Bowl contender? And one of the things that's kind 931 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 3: of been buried in all this is Mahomes is coming 932 00:51:01,600 --> 00:51:04,840 Speaker 3: off a pretty serious injury first of his career. Really 933 00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:08,800 Speaker 3: to this extent at his age, when do you expect 934 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 3: him to be full go for next year? 935 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:14,040 Speaker 6: Well, Patrick Mahomes has been a beast in terms of 936 00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:16,719 Speaker 6: his play and also getting to injuries. We remember him 937 00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:19,400 Speaker 6: playing through a high ankle spring and winning the Super 938 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:22,360 Speaker 6: Bowl on that. This knee injury is a little bit different. 939 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,000 Speaker 6: It's more than just an ACL, and we've talked about 940 00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 6: it a lot at Sports Injury Central sic score dot com. 941 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 6: It's a multi ligament injury where he tore his LCL 942 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 6: as well as his ACL, which is why he had 943 00:51:35,320 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 6: the accelerated immediate surgery. Not because his body wouldn't recognize it, 944 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,440 Speaker 6: but because it's a repair of the LCL and then 945 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:46,080 Speaker 6: a reconstruction of the ACL makes it more complicated. The 946 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 6: best comp for this as a quarterback actually was Carson 947 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 6: Wentz when he was with the Eagles. It happened in 948 00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 6: LA against the Rams, tours LCL and ACL. Nick Foles 949 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 6: came in and won the Super Bowl. Carson Wentz was 950 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,799 Speaker 6: not for Week one last year. He rushed it back 951 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:05,919 Speaker 6: week four or so and ended up with some back 952 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:10,720 Speaker 6: issues compensatorily, Here's the thing, Could Patrick do I expect 953 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 6: Patrick Mahomes to return to one hundred percent or being 954 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:18,080 Speaker 6: Patrick Mahomes the magician that he is, the answer is yes. 955 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:22,360 Speaker 6: Will that happen week one? That is definitely in question. 956 00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 6: I don't think he'll be one hundred percent himself week one. 957 00:52:26,160 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 6: Is he healthy enough to try and play Week one? Maybe? 958 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,080 Speaker 6: Will he want to play Week one? Certainly? Will the 959 00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:35,440 Speaker 6: Chiefs let him play Week one when he's not one 960 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,960 Speaker 6: hundred percent? That's the bigger question mark, and they may 961 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:43,279 Speaker 6: exercise some caution because he is absolutely the franchise. You 962 00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 6: don't want him to not be one hundred percent and 963 00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 6: suffer another injury. And I think they're going to take 964 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:51,480 Speaker 6: it day by day and see how he is, but 965 00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:54,440 Speaker 6: if there's any additional risk, they may not have him 966 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,920 Speaker 6: playing at the start of next season given the severity 967 00:52:57,960 --> 00:52:58,800 Speaker 6: of the knee injury. 968 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:01,920 Speaker 4: David Show always appreciate it. 969 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,320 Speaker 3: You can get him on x at Pro Football, Doc, 970 00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:08,239 Speaker 3: and we look forward to updates when some of the 971 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:11,320 Speaker 3: wheelings and dealings happening. It happened, and we'll monitor the 972 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:14,359 Speaker 3: Jason Tatum situation. Good stuff, Doc, We appreciate you, man.
