00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,399

26
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: tough one, but there are a couple of good ones

Speaker 1: Giving three Thanksgiving games captive of course by Steelers Ravens.

38
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: I want to start the show on a super random note. Okay,

39
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 1: you guys know I talk about um being active and

40
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 1: getting out there and exercising and all this stuff. I

41
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: am a frequent that stuff. I try to wake up early. Um,

42
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 1: getting a quick lift in my house. Uh, get to

43
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: push ups and sit ups in And so when my

44
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: kid comes down, my older who's nine, he sees me

45
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 1: working and I want to drill into him like, listen, man,

46
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: you gotta wear out, rise and grind, like literally you

47
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: have to wake up and start working, um, every single day.

48
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: And I get into good workout Friday morning, and you know,

49
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: I get the Starbucks, I have breakfast. Everything's good. And

50
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: then I'm sitting awkwardly in my computer chair and I

51
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: think I coughed, and all of a sudden, my back,

52
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 1: the shooting pain goes into my lower back. I'm like

53
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 1: one of those old man injuries. And the entire day Friday,

54
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 1: I was like in traction, laying down with a hot

55
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: add on my back doing I had to go on

56
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,359
Speaker 1: YouTube and look up back exercises for your lower back

57
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: when it's pulled. I could barely put on my sneakers

58
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: this morning. Guys. It's one of those old man injuries.

59
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: Your boy feeling the pain. Um, I I don't think

60
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:17,840
Speaker 1: I could play basketball this weekend if I wanted to.

61
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 1: Not that I can. I don't know if I can

62
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: run like it's it's a crappy start to the morning,

63
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: but fortunately we have a monster monster story to start

64
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: the day. And no, it's not okay. See trading another pick,

65
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 1: another player for another first round pick, that's not it.

66
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: It's the Lakers, the team in my backyard out here

67
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: in l A stealing Rob Polinka like a thief in

68
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: the night, just boosting Montrese Harold from across town Clippers,

69
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 1: bringing him into the locker room. And a lot of

70
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: people are saying, listen, Clutch Sports at it again. Clutch Sports,

71
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: of course run by Lebron's guys um. They represent montre

72
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 1: As Harold, and the Lakers straight up stole the sixth

73
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: man of the year, straight up took him from the Clippers,

74
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: unlike a bargain basement discount deal. I think it was

75
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,839
Speaker 1: two years, nine and a half million, nine point seven

76
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:17,160
Speaker 1: five something in that range. Nineteen million, thank you, Gavin.

77
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: Nineteen million over two years four the sixth man of

78
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: the year. That's nothing, that's absolutely nothing. And the Clippers

79
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: let him walk. How did they not match that? Now?

80
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: The funny thing that some people were texting me about

81
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 1: was did you see Dwight Howard was all excited to

82
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 1: go to the Lakers. Oh I'm gonna bleed purple and

83
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: gold or whatever it is. Within fifteen minutes, Dwight Howard

84
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: signed with the seventies sixers and everyone's like, what happened? Well,

85
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: the story goes, and it's not confirmed yet, was the

86
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 1: Lakers had some sort of agreement with Dwight Howard for

87
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: about three million dollars and then they realized Montrese Harrold

88
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: could be had and they were like, oh yeah, we're

89
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 1: gonna go ahead and pushed that upgrade button, grabbed the

90
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,159
Speaker 1: sixth man of the Year, and fifteen minutes after Dwight

91
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 1: Howard said he's happy to be a Laker, He's going

92
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: to the seventy six is to back up Joel Embiid,

93
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: and the Lakers pounced and grabbed Harrel and folks, there

94
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 1: is an aspect of life here that is at play,

95
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: and without question, you've got to take chances. You have to.

96
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: And I've talked about my story a lot, took a chance,

97
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: started a website, got lucky, took a chance, moved out

98
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: here to l a for for a job offer. I know,

99
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: I lived in the Northeast my entire life, but I

100
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: took a chance and it has paid immense dividends with

101
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,040
Speaker 1: love and life. The Lakers have taken some chances here

102
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: and they are striking gold with this free agency here

103
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 1: a weekend. Everything they've done has been to upgrade the roster.

104
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,799
Speaker 1: When you look at the other teams that are contending,

105
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: the Clippers have taken no chances. They have regressed. They

106
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: have stepped considerably. I mean when Patrick I'm a dog

107
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 1: Beverly is tweeting out, you know what w t F

108
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 1: after the Lakers steel Harrold, they're blindsided. The Clippers going

109
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: to next season with a new coach, without their sixth

110
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: man of the year. I mean, Harold, was you talk

111
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,599
Speaker 1: about heart and soul. We'll talk about the Rams later.

112
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 1: They lost their heart and soul left tackle on Andrew

113
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:26,080
Speaker 1: Whitworth to an injury. I think that's huge. You lose

114
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: the heart and soul of your team. It has to

115
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: be Montrese Harold, doesn't it. I mean he's been there

116
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: for three years. Pick and roll with Lou. You can't

117
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 1: make the heart and soul your team. Patrick Beverley has

118
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,480
Speaker 1: been there for like thirteen minutes. It obviously ain't Kauai

119
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: and it stop Paul George Harold was like the center

120
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: of that team. And I know a lot of Clippers

121
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,880
Speaker 1: fans are like J J J. Come on, look at

122
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: the plus minors and the bubble. He was garbage. They

123
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,599
Speaker 1: were looking to move on. Really, you're gonna take the

124
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: bubble into account for why Montrese Harrold is not a

125
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 1: good player. He won the sixth Man of the Year,

126
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 1: by the way, the runner up Dennis Shooter. All. So,

127
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: going to the Lakers, they're taking chances. They got Lebron

128
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 1: on top of the league. The Bucks will get to

129
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: them shortly. It looks like and Kevin, I haven't seen

130
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 1: the lads. It looks like the Bucks still have a

131
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: chance at Bogdan. Yeah, I saw that the Hawks are

132
00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: the favorites to land him. The Hawks have all the money.

133
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: I guess right. Didn't they overpay for Gallinari. Yeah, it

134
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: was a bit of an overpaid but he's a good player.

135
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: I do like Eleanor. I thought the Lakers could have

136
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: been in the mix for him. But now that we're

137
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 1: gonna talk league wide, if we as we've established, the

138
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 1: Lakers are going to be the team to beat next year,

139
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. You talk about running back to

140
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 1: back with Lebron at thirty thirty six. They're gonna opens

141
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: the favorites. I don't know who else could, but I used.

142
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: I do think that Lakers fans need to one check

143
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: your twitters and make sure you didn't slander Montrez a lot,

144
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: because I did see that a lot last year. Uh.

145
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: And secondly, thank Yoki because he is definitely the reason

146
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: the Lakers got him on such does he abused Harrold

147
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 1: in that seria and see I think the hope for

148
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 1: Laker fans is that that they used Tread's the right

149
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: way that Doc Rivers did not, because that was a

150
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: big issue. Yeah, no, no, that's a great point. Um,

151
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,640
Speaker 1: Lakers fans, listen, you hate going against X y Z

152
00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: and then when you're on your team, all right, let's go.

153
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: Look got you in the building. Let's rock and roll.

154
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: Now the Lakers have had some change, no doubt about it.

155
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 1: Danny Green gone, Um, let's not let's not hammer Danny Green. Okay,

156
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: soft spot for Danny Green on this show. Um. Dwight

157
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: Howard gone, looks like k CPS trying to fish for

158
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: a big deal. I don't know that he'll get it.

159
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: Lakers will return either KCP or Bradley, so they'll have

160
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,959
Speaker 1: to figure out a new starter. I don't think Shrewder

161
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: starts Gavin right six, No, I think you you said it.

162
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: It's you gotta make Shrewder the lou will because that's

163
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: the thing with Harrol, you know, you need the pick

164
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 1: and roll um. And then they lost Rondo as well.

165
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: Rondo is now Is he signed anywhere? I don't think

166
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 1: so yet. I'll check on that, but yeah, I think

167
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 1: you can definitely argue that the Lakers got better. They

168
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 1: at least, you know, didn't get worse, but they definitely

169
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 1: I think improved, and they got younger. I mean Rondo

170
00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 1: and Dwight Howard are old, Um, Montrez, Harro much younger.

171
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: Shredder I think it's Ma West and Matthews. I was

172
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: gonna bring him up. You bring in a KG veteran,

173
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: he probably starts, doesn't play a ton of minutes. Um,

174
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: he's a twenty minute game guy. But when you look

175
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 1: at how the Lakers are built. Now, remember last year

176
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 1: they would play Lebron in a d to start, one

177
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 1: would go to the bench and then Lebron would play

178
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: with everyone else. Then Lebron will go to the bench,

179
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: and a D would play. I think the Lakers finally

180
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 1: can say, you know what, We're going to rest both

181
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: guys because excuse me, we can trot out Kyle Kuzma,

182
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: Shrewder and Harold and be confident that they can last

183
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:58,079
Speaker 1: six or seven minutes without totally collapsing. Like last year.

184
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: Remember the Lakers were so desperate had to go out

185
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 1: and get Dion Waiters as a potential for creating shots

186
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: in the bubble when Avery Bradley was gone. Like, I

187
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: love everything the Lakers have done now big picture NBA.

188
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 1: I used to work with a guy at the Big Lead.

189
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: He's been on the show, Ryan Glass Bagel Sharp guy.

190
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: He's now working with Clay Travis at at their website.

191
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 1: And he texted me something after Jeremy Grant got a

192
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 1: huge contract. Okay, Jeremy Grant of the Nuggets, three and

193
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: D guy. If Jeremy Grant delivered a pizza to the

194
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 1: studio this morning, nobody could identify him. And and I

195
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:37,520
Speaker 1: know Jeremy, I mean I know who he is. I

196
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 1: would not say for certain, oh that's Jeremy Grant. There

197
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 1: he is. If he had the headband on you okay, five,

198
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: if he had the headband. I yes, six eight guy

199
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 1: with a headband, and I think he had corn rows

200
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 1: or dreads or whatever. Jeremy Grant now makes two point

201
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 1: five million dollars a year more than Aaron Donald. Is

202
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: that crazy, Jeremy Grhant? Is he a top fifty player

203
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: in the league, Gavin, off the top of your head,

204
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: No way, it makes more than the greatest defensive player

205
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,520
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Now again, I'm not saying that's wrong.

206
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: I'm just saying that's how it is in the NBA

207
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 1: because they cap the stars. The stars have, you know,

208
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: can only take a certain amount of max steel. And

209
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: you saw guys like Jeremy Grant getting big money, Joe

210
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: Harris of the Nets, huge contract, Malik Beasley. I'm telling

211
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,679
Speaker 1: you could but go play pick up basketball this weekend

212
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: and you go who's gotten next? And oh, that guy

213
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 1: down there has gotten next. And you see this big

214
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: guy shooting threes. Nice stroke. You're like, oh, great, what's up? Man,

215
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: Nice to meet you. And then you talk to the

216
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,400
Speaker 1: other guys. They say, man, you're lucky you got next

217
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: with an NBA player who's making fifteen million a year,

218
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: and you would do a double thing and be like

219
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: that guy's in the NBA making fifteen million a year.

220
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:55,440
Speaker 1: That's who Malik Beasley is. He's Aaron Donald is gonna

221
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: bake about what Mason Plumlee just it's if you're in

222
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,800
Speaker 1: the NFL, you basically don't want to go on to

223
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: Twitter when free agency begins. Yeah, and now listen, I'm

224
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: not saying anybody should look in someone else's pocket and

225
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 1: care about what's going on and don't look at their wallet.

226
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: But by the way, where to Mason Plumbly sign the

227
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: Detroit I don't know why? Yeah, yeah he is, Yeah,

228
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 1: because they're doing the NIXT thing and just getting all

229
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: these bigs. I mean, it's so weird. Like Detroit got

230
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: the new GM Troy weaver Um they got him from

231
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: I think, okay see, and he went out and signed

232
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 1: Mason Plumbly, and then he got Jalil Okafur and they

233
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,880
Speaker 1: drafted the kids Stewart from Washington. It feels like Blake

234
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: Griffin's probably on the move. I think there's some speculation

235
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 1: Blake Griffin could be headed to Denver. But it's just

236
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: weird to see a guy named Christian Wood. I was

237
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,440
Speaker 1: I thought he did my taxes four years ago, but

238
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: I guess he's going to be good, though I do

239
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: like Christian Wood. I'm sure. I'm sure he's a good player. Yeah,

240
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 1: he's making thirty million dollars. No exactly, I think that's

241
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: like Bryan Tannehill money. Um. And by the way, Region

242
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 1: Rondo did or He's about to sign with the Atlanta Hawks. Hawks,

243
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: so you know how that's gonna go. Region Rondo is

244
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 1: gonna try to be a nice mentor towards Trey Young,

245
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: and then the Hawks probably won't make the playoffs, right,

246
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: I mean, the East has maybe one or two openings,

247
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 1: but I don't know. If the Hawks make the playoffs,

248
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: and then Rondo's gonna be like, oh, well, I would

249
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: like to play in the postseason. That's fun. I'm good

250
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,320
Speaker 1: at that. And he will probably manage to get out

251
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 1: of his deal with the Hawks to buy him out,

252
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:28,800
Speaker 1: and it'll end up on like the Lakers for a

253
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,960
Speaker 1: playoff run. That's It's weird how the NBA works. I

254
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 1: could totally see that happening. But fun night in the NBA.

255
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,439
Speaker 1: Good at the NBA's back. By the way, I had

256
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 1: thought that Lakers Clippers on Christmas would be amazing. Gavin

257
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: and I got a d M from somebody who said, Yo,

258
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 1: the NFL's on Christmas this year. I hadn't even looked

259
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 1: at the schedule. Folks, Christmas, you probably won't have to

260
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 1: deal with a lot of your family members because you know,

261
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: in ll A you're not allowed to have ten people

262
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:59,719
Speaker 1: in your house or something. Dumb. I don't want to

263
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: talk about that. It gets me and Green and Gavin

264
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,959
Speaker 1: gets fired up as well. Um. But if you're getting

265
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,959
Speaker 1: Lakers Clippers on Christmas with the Montres Harrold factor and NFL,

266
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I haven't looked at the NFL schedule

267
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 1: for Christmas, NFL schedule for Thanksgiving. A couple of duds

268
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: during the day, but they'll probably turn out okay. I

269
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 1: mean one of the matchups is Alex Smith against Andy

270
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: Dalton or Garrett Gilbert, one of those two. By the way, Gavin,

271
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: real quick funny note here. Do you want the Christmas game? Yes,

272
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 1: Vikings at Saints could have playoff implications and by the way,

273
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: the Vikings, by then they're going to be a good team.

274
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 1: They already are turning into a good team. And then

275
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,800
Speaker 1: the Saints, Oh boy, can't wait to talk about the

276
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: Saints in the next segment, this whole Taysom Hill, Jameis Winston.

277
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: I'm still dubious that this is actually gonna happen. I

278
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,880
Speaker 1: gotta see it to believe it. But um, I saw

279
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 1: the funniest prop bet last weekend regarding Alex Smith. Remember

280
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:59,160
Speaker 1: the guy who's been through some major injuries on what

281
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,240
Speaker 1: would be a large your number, Alex Smith passing yards

282
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 1: against Detroit or Bryson dus sham Swoll's longest drive at

283
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 1: the Masters, And like a lot of people would say,

284
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: probably Bryson Alex Smith. What does he checked down Charlie

285
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: two or fifty yards? And of course Alex Smith falls behind.

286
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: He's in jack mode the entire second half and he

287
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: ends up throwing for like three yards something insane, and

288
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 1: he actually topped Bryson's longest drive. Funny stuff. Gambling always cool.

289
00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: So coming up next year on the Jason mcintar show,

290
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio, I don't know Jamis Winston versus Taysom Hill.

291
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 1: I had wanted to take the falcons with, you know,

292
00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: with Jamis starting, and then they changed in a Taysom Hill.

293
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: He's thrown eighteen passes in his career, five passes this season,

294
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 1: and they're starting him allegedly. Now, Sean Payton did come

295
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: out right Gavin and say I haven't named a starter.

296
00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: We'll have the audio. It's weird. All the reporters are

297
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 1: saying this is happening. Sean Payton seems to dispute that.

298
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: We will go to the audio. Next here Saints Madness,

299
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: NFL Week eleven. Can't wait, that's next here on Fox

300
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Alright, it's time for the Geico Play of

301
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: the day. Plumber to throw over the middle of the scene.

302
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: It's intercepted. Golfers got an interception. Josh I on a

303
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: deep drop makes the I N T with forty four

304
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:35,760

327
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:49,280

331
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 1: with the giants? At No, there's nothing want to add.

332
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: Stand by the entire thing I said. Re checked in

333
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: with my guy, uh Friday, my guy or girl? I

334
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 1: should say, uh, who who sent me the information? Who's

335
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 1: very close to the situation. It happened, there was an altercation.

336
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 1: Giants coach fired their offensive line coach. It did not

337
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,680
Speaker 1: go well, and I put it out there. And of course, listen,

338
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 1: a lot of the beat writers who covered the team

339
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: quick to say, oh, no, no, there was no fight.

340
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: It was it was ugly and there was a words exchange,

341
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: but there was no fight. Well, okay, I guess we'll

342
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 1: just see what happens at the press conferences this week

343
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: when Judge meets the media. And uh, listen, I've said

344
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: my part. You guys know me on the show. I don't.

345
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:51,680
Speaker 1: I'm not Mr throws stuff up against the wall and

346
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 1: open sticks. I only go with stuff from sources I trust,

347
00:18:56,280 --> 00:19:00,400
Speaker 1: and that's gonna be an interest. I kid at wait

348
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: for the full story to come out. Um to the

349
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: NFL and Week eleven. So Sean Payton decided apparently to

350
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: start Taysom Hill this weekend against Atlanta, with Jamis Winston

351
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: not being the backup. Okay, everybody said, oh, well, Jamis

352
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,920
Speaker 1: filled in in the second half when Breeze went down. Um,

353
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 1: I think it's obvious Jamie's is gonna start. Oh, Jamis,

354
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: we love him. He throws interceptions and pick six is

355
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,000
Speaker 1: left and right. Okay, And then the reports came out

356
00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 1: that no, Taysom Hill is going to be the starter,

357
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:39,760
Speaker 1: not Jamis. Here's Sean Payton talking to the media yesterday

358
00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:43,679
Speaker 1: about Taysom Hill. I haven't announced that either one of

359
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: those two were starting after that was just leaked by

360
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: someone else. I yesterday. I didn't see today or what

361
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: you're talking about. That was It was just the headline

362
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 1: on YESDN the tasle was was going to start. Yeah,

363
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,239
Speaker 1: I didn't see that in And again, uh, you know,

364
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: we got good week of preparation and we're looking forward

365
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: to the game. Just to clarif I said no, no

366
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: one has been named to start. Yeah, listen, someone has

367
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:12,439
Speaker 1: been named the starter, but we haven't announced it. I

368
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 1: don't know what he's doing there, Kevin. I gotta be

369
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 1: honest with we have a starter, we haven't announced it.

370
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 1: What are you waiting for? Did I know you want?

371
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,959
Speaker 1: Is this all gamesmanship? That's the real question. Is just

372
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: Peyton trying to get into the head of the Falcons

373
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: who saw the breeze injury and obviously said okay, well

374
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: we gotta be ready for Jamie. So then you know, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday,

375
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 1: whatever days at practice they're diving into Jamie's tape and

376
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 1: um breaking down his tendencies. And Falcons know him well.

377
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 1: They've seen Jameis Winston. I'm closed for several years, faced

378
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,920
Speaker 1: him twice last year, picked him off four times in

379
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: two games, and you could argue he had as good

380
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: of weapons last year with Tampa with Evans and godwindn't

381
00:20:54,600 --> 00:21:00,400
Speaker 1: healthy as he has this year. So I personally had

382
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 1: liked Atlanta weirdly, and Gavin, you saw this too, that

383
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:07,719
Speaker 1: the line dropped when Taysom was announced a starter. I

384
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: didn't like that move. I disagree with it. Yeah, I mean, look,

385
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: I'm very happy that earlier in the week I was

386
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 1: able to get Falcon's money line. I can't remember exactly

387
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: where it was at, but yeah, when it was announced

388
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 1: tastes him. I was like, Okay, that's good. I'm not

389
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: I'm a little annoyed that. Here's the thing. Is it good?

390
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 1: We don't he's I don't like unknown. I don't know

391
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 1: what he is. How many times has he passed the

392
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 1: ball on Sunday over under eighteen in his career. I

393
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 1: think it's under like right on this Sunday. Yeah, I

394
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: don't know what's coming, and I don't think the foul.

395
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,680
Speaker 1: It's not like the Falcons are a good defense, right.

396
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,439
Speaker 1: I like taste some more as a gadget guy in

397
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 1: certain plays. I don't think on a full game slate,

398
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 1: I honestly think if he starts the first half, I

399
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,719
Speaker 1: think Jamie starts the second half. I honestly think that's

400
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: how it's that. Now, that would be spicy. We'll dive

401
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: into it coming up here shortly with one of our guests.

402
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:06,479
Speaker 1: By the way, Gavin, need to give you and your

403
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: girl a shout out. We started watching the Chess show

404
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 1: Queen's Gamble. Queen's Gambit really really good. I mean it's

405
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: a little dark early and I was like, you know that, Yeah,

406
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 1: you don't expect Guy in the basement like I'm not

407
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 1: giving anything. Once that was I was like, I don't know,

408
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 1: I can't and then it was fine, Um, but I

409
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: thought was really one of my favorite things about the

410
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,479
Speaker 1: show is that the characters don't just fall into what

411
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: you expect, Like people can just be not nice but

412
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: not be the worst. You know that you're expecting because

413
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 1: you watch all these other dark shows where people are,

414
00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: you know, doing the worst actions. So great show. Glad

415
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: to hear you guys are enjoying it. Yeah. Uh, and

416
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:54,120
Speaker 1: Emily and Paris not going as well. Um, but I'm

417
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: a fan of Emily and Emily. Yeah, I'm a fan

418
00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 1: of Phil Collins daughter. She is cute and fun and yeah. Alright.

419
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: Coming up next year on Foxed Sports Radio, we will

420
00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: uh talk to a big Laker fan who is into

421
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: gambling as well. Are the Lakers of favorites? Next year

422
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 1: we'll do some NFL Week eleven. But first let's go

423
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: to Isaac Loewenkron with what's trending in sports. Good morning,

424
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: Jason fourth Ryank Clemson was supposed to kick off against

425
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 1: Florida State in Tallahassee about an hour and a half

426
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,600
Speaker 1: from now. Instead, at that very time, they're gonna be

427
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: taxing on a runway at Tallahassee International Airport about to

428
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: fly home. That's because the game was postponed this morning

429
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 1: because both teams medical personnel were unable to mutually agree

430
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:38,720
Speaker 1: on moving forward with the game at a conference call

431
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,680
Speaker 1: earlier this morning. Pete the Mel of Yahoo Sports reports

432
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:47,480
Speaker 1: that a Clemson backup offensive alignment tested positive for COVID

433
00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: from a test that was taken on Friday. They received

434
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:53,959
Speaker 1: the results after Clemson had landed in Tallahassee on Friday

435
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 1: afternoon and the player had traveled with the team. The

436
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:01,160
Speaker 1: mal added that Florida State officials were not comfortable because

437
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 1: the offensive lineman practiced this week while exhibiting COVID symptoms

438
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 1: but had been testing negative until Friday's test. Clemson athletic

439
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: director Dan Radakovitch tweeting earlier this morning, we are disappointed

440
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 1: that we will not be able to play today's game.

441
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: Clemson has followed all of the a c c S

442
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 1: protocol in preparation for this game. Star Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence,

443
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 1: tweeting this morning, simply, quote man, we were ready to play, unquote.

444
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 1: So that makes it eight team college football games this

445
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 1: week that have been either postponed or canceled. In the NBA,

446

449
00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: that he was staying with the Lakers, but Shortly thereafter,

450
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,280

00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 1: seven Auto. The only hard part figuring out which way

457
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: is easier. All Right, our next guest, you know him, Well,

458
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,880
Speaker 1: come on the show. He's got the James Harden beard

459
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: going on. Unless he shaved it. I don't. I haven't

460
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 1: seen him in a couple of weeks. Um, he's on

461
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,679
Speaker 1: Daily Wager on ESPN. He loves gambling, sports Cheat up.

462
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 1: Preston Johnson, what's up, man? How are you hey? I'm

463
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 1: doing Welcome morning, guys. Um. I guess let's start right

464
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 1: out of the gate. You are a huge Laker fan. Um,

465
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: tell me the joy and glee you got when the

466
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: Lakers added six Man of the Year Montrese Harold last night. Well,

467
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 1: it was interesting because he's not a player that I

468
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: would have No one really saw it coming to begin with.

469
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: But he's not a player that I would have really wanted.

470
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: But then everything's all relative to the price that you

471
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 1: get them for, isn't it. So when they got him

472
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: for the full mid level exception, when I think, I mean,

473
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: how much did his stock really fall on the bubble

474
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 1: because he wasn't able to work out with the Clippers

475
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:59,000
Speaker 1: prior to going to Orlando. Him and Landry Shammitt, both

476
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,720
Speaker 1: who I think had picked up COVID prior arrived, and

477
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: they just weren't in shape and neither played well in

478
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:07,919
Speaker 1: the bubble, And then now neither they trade shammered away

479
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 1: and Harold goes and signed us the Lakers for cheap.

480
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 1: I'm surprised teams are putting that much stock in his

481
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 1: bubble performance versus like years of prior data that we have.

482
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 1: So for the price that we got Harold, I'm thrilled.

483
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 1: And then when you look at the price we got

484
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: West Matthews for compared to like, say, Joe Harris, like, like,

485
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: can you tell me definitively Joe Harris is way better

486
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: than West Matthews. And Joe Harris is like nineteen million

487
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 1: a year and West Matthews three point six or whatever

488
00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 1: sold on hold on Joe Harris is probably like five

489
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: years younger, um less injury history. I don't have the

490
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 1: numbers in front of me, but I'm assuming he's a

491
00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 1: much better shooter, isn't he than West Matthew. He's definitely

492
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 1: been better from three the last few seasons, and what's Matthews?

493
00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: West Matthews definitely a better wing defender and we only

494
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 1: need a guy for a year. I mean, yeah, you're

495
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: right if you're looking long term, of course you are

496
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 1: on Joe Harris, but just just bringing up prices relative

497
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: to what the Lakers paid. I thought it was a

498
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 1: great day when you look at everyone else and people

499
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,359
Speaker 1: are paying Mason Pumley almost nine million a year and

500
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 1: you've got Montres Harrell for nine millionaire. I think it'll

501
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: be a good fit, especially that bench unit with the

502
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: Dennis shooter trade they made, which I didn't like as

503
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 1: much at the time because I love Danny Green. But

504
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,400
Speaker 1: West Matthews now kind of takes that h Danny Green.

505
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: And then you know shooters there with Harrol kind of

506
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,720
Speaker 1: like the lou Williams Harrell picking roll. So it's very interesting.

507
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: Um still a few more pieces I think for them

508
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,400
Speaker 1: to still out. Okay, two things It's so funny about

509
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 1: President I like how he's keeps saying we with the Lakers,

510
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,640
Speaker 1: I know you guys, and then no, no, that's great,

511
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,919
Speaker 1: that's great. Hey, this is reality. You know you're real.

512
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,400
Speaker 1: And then the other thing is I love Danny Green.

513
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 1: Like there's Lakers fans. This show is on in l

514
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 1: A and people are just growning you're the guy who

515
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: likes Danny Green. All right, Preston, give me your envisioned

516
00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: starting lineup for the Lakers. And I know they still

517
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:50,600
Speaker 1: have to determine between KCP and Avery Bradley. It looks

518
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 1: like they'll only get one of those two. There's a

519
00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: chance they could get neither of them, right, sure, yeah,

520
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 1: k CP could get more money elsewhere, so that that

521
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 1: was the case than I mean, he's just gone, uh

522
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 1: but and then I think, yeah, Avery Bradley would be

523
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: in the mix though at that point for sure, if

524
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,879
Speaker 1: they get k C Pete and I'm imagining that Avery

525
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: Bradley will be going outsewhere because he can get more

526
00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: than just a veteran minimum um as far as how

527
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: much he's getting paid. The starting lineup is probably going

528
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 1: to be, you know, similar though where they played Lebron

529
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,080
Speaker 1: at the point guard Wes Matthews can kind of fill

530
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:22,160
Speaker 1: in the Danny Green roll. Uh. If they have Avery Bradley,

531
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 1: then he probably will be like the smallest guard that

532
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,639
Speaker 1: they'll start. But um, Carusoe is still on the team,

533
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 1: and he started that final game of the NBA Finals,

534
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,640
Speaker 1: for example. If they need to go smaller, um, But

535
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: a lot of times they don't write and so, UM,

536
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:36,880
Speaker 1: I think I think Carroll will still be off the bench.

537
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 1: And I still think they need to find whether it

538
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 1: be Javail or they're going to get another big man, um,

539
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 1: someone they can start impair alongside Anthony Davis, because I'm

540
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: not sure and maybe you have thoughts on this in

541
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 1: general though, Um, how Anthony Davis Mantres Harroll like front

542
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 1: court pairs together and maybe they'll figure it out. But

543
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: I just would be surprised if he started at least

544
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 1: from the get go. You know, I'm with you. I mean,

545
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: you could find any seven footer who can chew gum

546
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 1: and run at the same time to play ten minutes

547
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 1: a game, right, I mean that's all Daville was basically doing. Um,

548
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: this does I'm curious how what's your take is on

549
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,520
Speaker 1: what this does to the Clippers. I know you're a

550
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 1: huge Zoo Box fan. I would assume you've got a

551
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 1: Zoobots jersey at home. Um, like he's gonna be playing

552
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 1: more and you know this decimates the bench. I don't

553
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 1: know what this does to the locker room, right. Uh,

554
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: your thoughts on the Clippers. We know the Lakers improved

555
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: getting Shrewder Harold and West Matthews. Clippers have date it's

556
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 1: basically done nothing but fire their coach and loser six

557
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 1: men of the year. So I think everyone expected them

558
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 1: to lose Mantes Harrold because they just couldn't afford him, right,

559
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: and so the fact that he ended up getting the

560
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 1: mid level exception that's why Patrick Beverley I think he

561
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:46,560
Speaker 1: tweeted he was like what, like what just happened? Because

562
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: everyone assumed he was just gonna get paid so much

563
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: more and they could have brought him back because I

564
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 1: think they still have a mid level exception um spot available.

565
00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 1: But you're right, they're definitely not a step. I still

566
00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 1: think the Luke Knard uh basically for Landry Shamma is fine.

567
00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: If you want to say their net neutrals, that's totally good.

568
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: I think Connard's slightly more valuable of an offensive player,

569
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 1: so that could end up being a bonus, but you

570
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,479
Speaker 1: need to fill I think you mentioned Box. I love

571
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: him because he's kind of one of the last like

572
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,960
Speaker 1: rim protecting, defensive, rebounding bigs that can still kind of,

573
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: you know, give you a pick and roll switch and

574
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 1: not totally decimate your defense and their impact numbers when

575
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: he's on the floor versus Harrold all throughout the playoffs

576
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: were drastically different. Zoo Bots is a plus player when

577
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,080
Speaker 1: he was on the Lakers. You know, when they were

578
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 1: a bad Lakers team, Whenever Zoo boxes on the floor,

579
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 1: they were actually like plus four plus five on um.

580
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: So I love him and I think he is underrated,

581
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 1: but he's never really played a ton of minutes outside

582
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 1: if you know the two range, if I recall correctly,

583
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: so if he has another leap or another step to take,

584
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 1: hopefully he can take it for the Clippers. But I

585
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: do think they have at least one more piece of

586
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: they'll be adding officially and quickly on the Bucks. Preston Um,

587
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: Listen that East all of a sudden is dangerous. Miami

588
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,720
Speaker 1: is very good. I think Brooklyn, you know, we'll see

589
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: if they get hardened. Brooklyn's obviously gonna be there. Boston,

590
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens with this Heyward situation. Um, are

591
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: the Brooks the best team in the East and remove

592
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 1: the home court stuff, uh from the equation. I'm not

593
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 1: sure I can say definitively. I think they'll have the

594
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 1: best record in the East more often than not, but

595
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 1: it's probably going to be similar to what we've seen

596
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, where other teams can absolutely compete with them. Now,

597
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: had they not botched the whole Bogdanovich thing, I think

598
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: I would have been a lot more willing to say, yes,

599
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: they're the best. The Drew Holiday edition was perfect, Like,

600
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: that's exactly what they needed. They needed another guy that

601
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: can create off the ball and as well as when

602
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 1: Janice is not handling the ball himself, and then an

603
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 1: elite defender as far as the guard is concerned. And Holiday,

604
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: But they definitely aren't as deep as they work prior. So, UM,

605
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 1: it's an interesting thing because maybe that's a benefit. Right

606
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 1: Mike Budenholzer, his thing has been let's play ten guys

607
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:02,479
Speaker 1: in our rotation an elimination game in the playoffs instead

608
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 1: of like seven. Well, now, if you only have seven

609
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 1: or eight playable guys, maybe that actually works out. So uh,

610
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: time will tell. But I do think they're probably gonna

611
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 1: end up with the best record in the East still.

612
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 1: But the question is can they make that jump to

613
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 1: where they're actually, you know, a contender to win the

614
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: East at least a legitimate one, because they really haven't

615
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: been despite the record the last two seasons. Al Right,

616
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,680
Speaker 1: so let's get let's put quickly pivot to the NFL. Preston,

617
00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: you can follow her at sports Cheetah. I think the

618
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: last time you were on, we asked you, Preston, if

619
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 1: you have five dollars to make one NFL? But this weekend,

620
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,960
Speaker 1: who do you got? And I'm fairly certain you've got

621
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 1: it correct? Right, I couldn't tell you to be honest,

622
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 1: so I hope I did. Yeah, and I think you

623
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: got that right. Is there a play this weekend that

624
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 1: you love more than anything else? I will say, let's

625
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 1: let's just stick with the side you want to side

626
00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: I was, I'll go with the Packers. I think it's

627
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 1: come down some, but you can still get plus money

628
00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 1: on them. The money line I think like plus one

629
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,680
Speaker 1: ten is still decent. Like they opened a minus two

630
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite, they moved to being plus

631
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 1: two and a half, which I did not get at all. Um,

632
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 1: that's kind of when I jumped in myself. But I

633
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:11,760
Speaker 1: still think you can get like plus one tent range

634
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: on the money line, even plus one of five, they

635
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 1: should be a small favorite. And um, you know, you

636
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 1: look at the Colts and they have a good defense, yes,

637
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 1: but you look at who they've played, Like all of

638
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 1: the teams that they've faced, the defense of the Colts

639
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 1: they ranked back half an efficiency through the air other

640
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: than the Titans. And really the only reason that the

641
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: Titans in Ryan Tannehill are that efficient is because they

642
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 1: take big shots in play action that are set up

643
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 1: from Derrick Henry in the run game. Like, that's not

644
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 1: even that tough of a matchup through the air if

645
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: you're planning in game planning for Ryan Tanniel. So I

646
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 1: think in general, this Aaron Rodgerson I has been throwing

647
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 1: in win the last few weeks going into Indianapolis is

648
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: just gonna be ridiculously tough for this Colts defense to stop.

649
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 1: It's a step up versus anything they've seen. Davante Adams

650
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 1: was cleared and he was a full practice, so he's

651
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 1: gonna be a goo uh. And then you have Alexander

652
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 1: and King, two cornerbacks who have been missing games for

653
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: Green Bay, are also returning, so this second it's gonna

654
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: be better. And I on thinet. Anyone loves Philip Rivers

655
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: and what the Colts can do really offensively, So I

656
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: think the Packers and I think they're gonna end up closing,

657
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:09,960
Speaker 1: probably the small favorite again, So if you want to

658
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 1: get the Colts, I think you could wait. But I

659
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 1: think the Packers are the planting. They take care of business.

660
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: And then I think the most public side this weekend

661
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,320
Speaker 1: is the Kansas City Chiefs. Given all the Raiders COVID issues.

662
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: Are you on board with that or do? Would you

663
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,160
Speaker 1: tell people, hey, take just take a step back, don't

664
00:34:24,200 --> 00:34:27,319
Speaker 1: force it. I stayed away, and I probably wouldn't be

665
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 1: betting anything unless you know, once we're confirmed exactly how

666
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: many players are and who's all out comes Sunday. But

667
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:35,560
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna let the game pass. I don't think

668
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,839
Speaker 1: I can bet either side. Yeah, I'm with you, all right.

669
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: Preston Johnson a KA to sports Cheetah, good stuff, President

670
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,560
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, make that Lakers parade happen. We

671
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: still need it out here in l A. I'm trying, man,

672
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 1: I'm trying to take it easy. It was Preston Johnson,

673
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 1: good stuff on the Lakers in the NFL, and I'm

674
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: with him on the Chiefs Raiders. That's just I'm telling you.

675
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: Everybody in the contest is going to take Chiefs. That's fine.

676
00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 1: We saw everybody and their mom bet the Ravers Ravens

677
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: last week against the Patriots on Saturday Night Football. How

678
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,520
Speaker 1: did that work out? There's just too many instances where

679
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,319
Speaker 1: the most obvious side loses, So no thanks. Coming up

680
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,879
Speaker 1: next year on Fox Sports Radio, this is a weird

681
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 1: week for COVID in the NFL. It's really getting ugly,

682
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,960
Speaker 1: and I kind of wonder is it Is it going

683
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,879
Speaker 1: to continue to get ugly? Our teams that are out

684
00:35:19,880 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 1: of the mix just gonna throw their hands up and

685
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,480
Speaker 1: the players are gonna say, hey, man, four months of

686
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: staying at home. I need to have some fun. Talk

687
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 1: about that next year on the Jason McIntire show, Fox

688
00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:34,720
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. Back here on Fox Sports Radio, interesting take

689
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 1: from Preston Johnson that Anthony Davis and Harold probably wouldn't

690
00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,799
Speaker 1: work together as starters. I would actually argue, Gavin, it

691
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 1: doesn't even matter who starts really, Uh, it's the end

692
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 1: of the game lineup that matters most. Right, who do

693
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,799
Speaker 1: you have on the five? Who are your five on

694
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,279
Speaker 1: the court during winning time? Right? So you would think

695
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,919
Speaker 1: play a D at the five, Harold at the four?

696
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:02,360
Speaker 1: A D. We know he could step out and hit threes.

697
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: Um Lebron and then who were the other two? And

698
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 1: at times they just rode the hot hand? Right, was

699
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,440
Speaker 1: a Crusoe? Sometimes it was was it Rondo? Maybe it's

700
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,319
Speaker 1: gonna be West Matthews. Maybe it's gonna be Shrewder. That'll

701
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 1: be But I don't know. Avery Bradley, like Lakers are

702
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 1: gonna have options, like they're stacked right now. I kind

703
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,320
Speaker 1: of love this. Um. I do have to say, Gavin,

704
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 1: we didn't really touch on the Knicks. We will have

705
00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: a guest to talk about the Knicks, uh, coming up

706
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 1: in the next hour. I gotta say, man, like, if

707
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:36,040
Speaker 1: you're a big fan of the Knicks, the Bulls, Wizards,

708
00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:38,240
Speaker 1: big markets on the East Coast, they're just doing nothing.

709
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,520
Speaker 1: It's like, who cares what's going on with those teams.

710
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 1: They're totally awful. I just I get depressed even thinking

711
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:49,360
Speaker 1: about my knicks. Whoop the damn do I don't know.

712
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,279
Speaker 1: I don't know if if he's a game changer. Um,

713
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:53,240
Speaker 1: all right, let's get back to the NFL and COVID

714
00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 1: and I don't know. I on on my daily podcast,

715
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 1: Straight Fire, I kind of speculated that this concerned me.

716
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,920
Speaker 1: We could see teams that are you know, like the Jets,

717
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:07,840
Speaker 1: um just kind of start to be let their guard

718
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 1: down a little bit when it comes to COVID and

719
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: this week, I mean, how many games are impacted by COVID. I,

720
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,760
Speaker 1: by the way, have not seen the Detroit Carolina line

721
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 1: in the last like five days. I know some of

722
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,000
Speaker 1: that has to do with the quarterback Stafford and Bridgewater

723
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 1: what are they doing there? But I think COVID was

724
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,400
Speaker 1: a factor in Cleveland. With Miles Garrett now out of

725
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,759
Speaker 1: the mix, he will not play. That's a huge loss

726
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 1: for them. By the way, uh t A coming on

727
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,360
Speaker 1: at the top of the hour, he I think he

728
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,479
Speaker 1: said something along the lines of Myles Garrett represents something

729
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: like of the pressures on opposing quarterbacks for the Browns,

730
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 1: like that's bad COVID hitting the Browns, and the other

731
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 1: big game that impact that I think impacted was Cincinnati

732
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:52,400
Speaker 1: and Washington the Bengals. I mean every week it's like

733
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:56,399
Speaker 1: this guy, what's his status? COVID situation? Uh, Minnesota Vikings

734
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,080
Speaker 1: have had a bunch of guys in the secondary. Obviously

735
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:02,399
Speaker 1: we talked Chiefs Raiders. I just I don't know how

736
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: bad COVID is gonna get in in the NFL, because remember,

737
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 1: there is no bubble come as you go? Wait, is

738
00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:11,720
Speaker 1: it come as you go? No, come as you please,

739
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:14,399
Speaker 1: go as you please, something like that, come as you are,

740
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: Come as you Kurt Cobain, Come as you are, Kurt Cobain. Yes,

741
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:23,799
Speaker 1: that Nirvana unplugged one of that's what listen. Ah. I'm

742
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:27,960
Speaker 1: not a big album guy. I'm a song guy. Um,

743
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,520
Speaker 1: but that Nirvana unplugged album is ridiculous. All right, I

744
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: got off topic. Lines current line is minus two over Carolina.

745
00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:37,840
Speaker 1: If you can get it, by the way, she's on

746
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:40,880
Speaker 1: my book. I don't have a lot of places in Vegas.

747
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: You can get it, but you gotta be in Vegas. Um.

748
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: I just this COVID stuff is gonna suck. As we

749
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,480
Speaker 1: proceed into December, we will get terrible nationally. It is

750
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 1: a year of gambling to remember, though, because it is

751
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 1: like the amount of times we were texting the other

752
00:38:56,440 --> 00:39:00,200
Speaker 1: night about the Titans, right and all the injury and

753
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: I'm rushing to there to to try to bet the

754
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,120
Speaker 1: Ravens and it's it's pretty funny. I'll never forget that

755
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 1: Cam Newton one when I was able to lock in

756
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,759
Speaker 1: a bet against the Chiefs when Cam Newton right. So

757
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,439
Speaker 1: it's been pretty entertaining. It was like a Brian Hoy

758
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 1: That was a Brian Hoyer night. Yeah, and they hey,

759
00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 1: they could have won that game too. That was yeah,

760
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: that was it was a gift pick six? Was it

761
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,640
Speaker 1: the money? Honey Badger? By the way, any thoughts on

762
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:26,400
Speaker 1: your Chargers. I've started to look at this game closer

763
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 1: Chargers Jets because of the Jets secondary injuries, and I

764
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 1: almost wonder, you know, you never want a better on

765
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,799
Speaker 1: Anthony Lynn is a huge favorite, Gavin. They're lay a

766
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:39,839
Speaker 1: nine and a half. I don't know, I wanted to

767
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 1: hear you h here, Uh listen to Joey Bose. He's

768
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:48,360
Speaker 1: gonna be back. Um yeah he had a bad concussion. Huh.

769
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: I mean, there's never a good concussion, we might have

770
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 1: to play it on the other side. Um, but Joey

771
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: both says back, the defense is gonna step up, I think,

772
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: and look, they're only playing the Jets, but I think

773
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 1: this is their get out frustration game. So I would

774
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 1: kind of like them to win here. Anthony Lennon and

775
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: a rookie bube Land big points. So the last time

776
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:11,000
Speaker 1: they were big favorites was against I think Carolina, uh,

777
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: and they lost out right, now, they should have won

778
00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 1: that game. They had a hook and ladder played and

779
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 1: now would they would that have covered or no? I

780
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,279
Speaker 1: mean there's a big number for Lynn. By the way,

781
00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,920
Speaker 1: does Anthony Lynn survive this season? I don't see how

782
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 1: for multiple reasons, including marketing and you know, go get

783
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer or something. All Right, So one hour in

800
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 1: t A, but we've talked plenty t A. How are

801
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: you on this fine weekend in November. I'm good, Jason.

802
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,800
Speaker 1: How are you just heading into Thanksgiving and getting ready

803
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,839
Speaker 1: for some good turkey here? Yeah, I'm not not gonna

804
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: have the big family get together, but you know enough

805
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 1: of a family get together, and I'm looking forward to

806
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,200
Speaker 1: uh a couple of days off here. So yeah, I

807
00:41:48,200 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 1: will say. I wrote a little on this for Fox

808
00:41:50,520 --> 00:41:55,000
Speaker 1: Sports this week that Thanksgiving traditionally, I've struggled with NFL

809
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,279
Speaker 1: Picks because you get off your routine, Like you said,

810
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:01,600
Speaker 1: the family, the priorities, the cookie and helping out around

811
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 1: the house, the honey dudes from the wife, taking care

812
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 1: of the kids, in laws, getting ready for Christmas in

813
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: the holidays. Has this has this been an issue for you?

814
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 1: And and you know, if it has, I'm curious how

815
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: you combat it and stay focused and locked in. Well,

816
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:16,839
Speaker 1: it's funny, So this is the first year I've had

817
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,520
Speaker 1: a baby, so I haven't had to deal with that.

818
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,319
Speaker 1: So that's that's probably gonna take take some more time

819
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 1: than normal. But yeah, I actually typically, like, um, the

820
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving games, I usually have like one or two that

821
00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,640
Speaker 1: I like to take out of the slate just because

822
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 1: you have all the information sooner than you do on

823
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 1: the weekend games, so you can actually get some of

824
00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 1: that work done. Um. But yeah, it's always difficult when

825
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: you've got, you know, all the stuff that's going on.

826
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 1: But I think this year, for me at least, and

827
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 1: I know for a lot of people, just less family activity.

828
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm not traveling this year, so there

829
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:50,240
Speaker 1: might be a little bit more time to do some homework.

830
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:52,799
Speaker 1: All right, let's dive into week eleven. Let's start with

831
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: your browns. Briefly. You have as good of a handle

832
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 1: in the browns as anybody. Um, I have been on

833
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,919
Speaker 1: them twice against the Bengals. They cover neither time, which

834
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:03,480
Speaker 1: really hurt. I don't get the Eagles at all. I'm

835
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,919
Speaker 1: owing three betting on the Eagles this year, so I'm

836
00:43:05,960 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: stepping away from this game. A lot of people I

837
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:10,759
Speaker 1: know are on the Eagles at three and a half,

838
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,440
Speaker 1: it's down to three. Um, what are you on the

839
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 1: state of the Browns without Miles Garrett? Yeah, I mean

840
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 1: it's it's a huge, huge deal to not half Garrett.

841
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,919
Speaker 1: I mean, um, you know, he accounts for thirty seven

842
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 1: percent of their pressures from from the front seven, which

843
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:29,239
Speaker 1: is the second highest rate in the NFL behind Aaron Donald. Um.

844
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 1: He's forced four of the defensive nine fumbles just by himself.

845
00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:36,879
Speaker 1: Um YEA. And the guys that are backing him up

846
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 1: are Adrian Claiborne and Port Augustine are two of the

847
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,480
Speaker 1: worst pass rushers in the NFL. I mean, out of

848
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 1: a hundred and sixteen edge rushers. Claiborne, Um, he only

849
00:43:48,080 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 1: has five pressures on a hundred fourteen snaps. That's a

850
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 1: four point four percent pressure right the hundred and thirteenth

851
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: out of a hundred and sixteen edge rushers. Gustin is

852
00:43:56,600 --> 00:44:00,440
Speaker 1: a hundred eleven. So not only are you losing a great,

853
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: great defensive player of the year type of UM, a

854
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 1: player in in Mile Garrett's who you're a playfield was

855
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: and you know those guys just haven't produced. So it's

856
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,200
Speaker 1: gonna be a real real issue on a defense that

857
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:14,359
Speaker 1: doesn't you know, get pressure in general, UM and they're

858
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 1: essentially bottom tending the NFL and a lot of metrics.

859
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,800
Speaker 1: So I think it's gonna be a major problem. And

860
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,400
Speaker 1: you know it's really gonna hurt this Brown's defense and

861
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,320
Speaker 1: the other side of the ball. I mean Baker Mayfield,

862
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:28,680
Speaker 1: you know, his biggest issue has always been UM facing pressure.

863
00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 1: I mean he is the second worst UM quarterback rating

864
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:36,520
Speaker 1: in the NFL went against pressure and you look at

865
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:38,360
Speaker 1: you know, Philly, there's six in the NFL and pressure

866
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 1: rate Baker's space. In the last two years, he stace

867
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 1: eight defenses that rank in the top twelve in pressure rate.

868
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 1: He's completed fifty of his passes for a hundred and

869
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,040
Speaker 1: sixty eight yards per game. He has no games of

870
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,000
Speaker 1: over two hundred yards passing okay five point eight yards

871
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 1: per attempt, nine touchdowns, eight interceptions, over three sacks. The

872
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 1: Browns are two and six in those games. I mean,

873
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 1: his splits between mean, you know, kind of facing pressure

874
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 1: teams and facing teams that don't get pressure are just real,

875
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 1: you know, night and day. So I to me think

876
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:10,839
Speaker 1: that the Eagles here are the play. Um, I think

877
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 1: they went out right unfortunately, but you know, I just

878
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 1: think that this is just a tough spot for the Browns.

879
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:17,879
Speaker 1: And the Eagles are really good, you know, the top

880
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,640
Speaker 1: ten in the NFL and defending running backs, you know,

881
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: in the run game. They're not good at defending quarterbacks.

882
00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,000
Speaker 1: We saw Daniel Jones have a big game last week.

883
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,439
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson had a big game against somebody against running

884
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 1: backs are really good. So it's just a bad match.

885
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: It sounds right. Uh yeah, I'm passing on it. Let's

886
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: go to another game now. This is probably one of

887
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 1: the more public sides of the weekend. I can't quit

888
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 1: these guys. I've I've been hitting them. I know they

889
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:41,359
Speaker 1: keep getting lucky. The Miami Dolphins go to Denver, too,

890
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,719
Speaker 1: is first tricky road start. I'm not going to count

891
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 1: Arizona as tricky. Um, you know, it looks like the

892
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 1: weather will be fine in Denver. Um, it's definitely a

893
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:54,880
Speaker 1: by high on Miami and a sell low on on

894
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,920
Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos, which you never like to do. Um.

895
00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 1: Is it a bad idea to ride Miami here? You know,

896
00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 1: I think everyone's gonna be on them. And I'm actually

897
00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:06,040
Speaker 1: surprised the line is a slow But really, if you

898
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,280
Speaker 1: look under the hood, you know what has Miami done

899
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: to win you the last couple of games. It's been

900
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 1: a lot of special teams in defensive touchdowns, right, I

901
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,200
Speaker 1: mean that every week it feels like they've got learned

902
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:18,439
Speaker 1: two touchdowns that are non offensive and that's just hard

903
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:21,239
Speaker 1: to maintain. But I will say, you know, Miami does

904
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,239
Speaker 1: have the number one special teams d v O A

905
00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 1: UM in the NFL and denverse twenty six, so they

906
00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 1: may continue that that that special team's performances this week.

907
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 1: You know, I would have thought it would have been, um,

908
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,080
Speaker 1: you know, maybe a tough one if you've got two

909
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,760
Speaker 1: one this Miami team going to cold weather or snow,

910
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 1: but it's supposed to be sunny in the fifties, so

911
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,839
Speaker 1: that should be okay. UM, And so I think that

912
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,759
Speaker 1: you know, Miami should roll here. But um, it's it's

913
00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:49,359
Speaker 1: just one of those where I think when you look

914
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 1: at contest plays and things like, that's probably one of

915
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 1: the top two three most selected. But um, yeah, there's

916
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:58,040
Speaker 1: no there's no reason that Miami shouldn't continue in a

917
00:46:58,040 --> 00:47:00,000
Speaker 1: great play this week. I'm trying to find a game

918
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:03,480
Speaker 1: more opposite. Umm, I have Miami and the contest. I'm oh,

919
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:07,359
Speaker 1: I got the game. I think I'm leaning towards Pittsburgh. Now.

920
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 1: The contest line is monest ten. I see it's up

921
00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 1: to ten and a half. I'm aware of all the

922
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin issues. The double digit trends are bad. Uh,

923
00:47:15,120 --> 00:47:17,920
Speaker 1: you know on the road versus bad teams bad. The

924
00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:20,800
Speaker 1: one monkey wrench I saw this morning is Gardner Minshew

925
00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:24,359
Speaker 1: hasn't been ruled out. Um, I don't know. Do you

926
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:28,319
Speaker 1: like Jacksonville here? Yeah? And again I don't love I

927
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,560
Speaker 1: don't finally bet trend really ever, but this this is

928
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,440
Speaker 1: like the only one that I will blindly beat because

929
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 1: it's been consistent. I mean, it's been consistent for thirteen years.

930
00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,399
Speaker 1: That's how well Mike Tomlin has been the head coach.

931
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean, check this out under Tomlin against you know,

932
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 1: sub five teams on the road. Um, they are fifteen

933
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 1: and twenty nine against the spread, thirty when you isolate

934
00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:54,399
Speaker 1: non division games, so you know they're not facing any

935
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 1: other arrivals, so motivation obviously becomes more of a concern.

936
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,080
Speaker 1: And their favored by over three points, so clearly a

937
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 1: better team. They're only five and thirteen against the spread

938
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:05,319
Speaker 1: when you look at double digit favorites. Okay, on the

939
00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:08,759
Speaker 1: road there one intent, one intent against the spread and

940
00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 1: only seven and four straight up. I mean it's the

941
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:13,520
Speaker 1: sixties four percent win percentage, which sounds, you know fine

942
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 1: on the surface, but when you are at least a

943
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,839
Speaker 1: ten point favorite, you're you're at least an eighty five

944
00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,800
Speaker 1: you know, win probability for those games. So for whatever reason,

945
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,719
Speaker 1: he they just his teams do not get motivated. They

946
00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:28,480
Speaker 1: always under underwhelmed. And the under it's a lot, by

947
00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 1: the way, it's almost even a bigger trend um. You know,

948
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 1: the unders hit like twenty the last twenty five road

949
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:37,000
Speaker 1: games in the spot. We saw what happened just two

950
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 1: weeks ago in Dallas against Garrett Gilbert. I mean they

951
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,880
Speaker 1: should have lost out right and obviously couldn't cover. And

952
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,560
Speaker 1: now you've got not only all this, okay, you've got

953
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:48,360
Speaker 1: the Steelers that play at home on Thanksgiving night against

954
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,480
Speaker 1: their fated rival the Ravens. So all the kind of

955
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 1: let down, look ahead kind of boxes are being checked here. Now.

956
00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:58,800
Speaker 1: Maybe you know, they just they've been hearing all these things,

957
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: and they say, look, we're gonna really given our our

958
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: max effort. Um, We're sick of hearing about this stuff.

959
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:07,400
Speaker 1: But like, I just don't see it. Um from that perspective,

960
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna keep playing until they proved me wrong,

961
00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 1: until the trend reverses itself. I'm just gonna keep playing

962
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:16,160
Speaker 1: the underdogs here. Yeah, that that is the one aspect

963
00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 1: of it I get. I was totally with you. I

964
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 1: understand the Dallas. I did not take the Steelers against Dallas.

965
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,799
Speaker 1: I just wonder if just that game was what three

966
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 1: weeks ago and they were fourteen point favorites, how are

967
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:33,440
Speaker 1: they only ten against Jacksonville? And I mean, I don't know,

968
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:38,839
Speaker 1: how is that possible? I mean, I think some of that, um,

969
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,600
Speaker 1: you know, the left doound stuff is factored in this line.

970
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,920
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about it. I mean probably normally they

971
00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,520
Speaker 1: would be a twelve teen point favorite. So you're probably

972
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,920
Speaker 1: getting you're losing, like two points of value. But to me,

973
00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,240
Speaker 1: you know, the difference between ten ten and a half

974
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:55,000
Speaker 1: and you know thirteen fourteen isn't isn't substantial from a

975
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:58,120
Speaker 1: you know, key number of perspective. So um, and and

976
00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:00,799
Speaker 1: the fact Jacksonville played really well lest against Green Bay.

977
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:02,959
Speaker 1: I mean, they easily could have won that game. Um.

978
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,760
Speaker 1: You know they they lost by two points to Houston

979
00:50:05,800 --> 00:50:08,560
Speaker 1: two weeks ago, so you know, they've been pretty competitive here.

980
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 1: They're not getting blown out. I think that's that's kind

981
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:13,760
Speaker 1: of why this this line is a little bit lower

982
00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:19,480
Speaker 1: than than you normally normally suspect anything on Bengals, Washington, UM,

983
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:22,080
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow got crushed last week by Pittsburgh. He got

984
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 1: crushed by Baltimore too, really really good defenses. I don't

985
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,600
Speaker 1: think Washington, Sorry, I don't think Washington's defense is as

986
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:32,799
Speaker 1: good as people think. The numbers say it's good, but

987
00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:36,880
Speaker 1: it's kind of inflated against really bad teams. Yeah, I mean,

988
00:50:36,920 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 1: I think they obviously have a good pass rush, but look,

989
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:41,840
Speaker 1: here are a couple of factors to be Cincinnati UM

990
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,799
Speaker 1: had had a banged up offensive line the last two games,

991
00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 1: are missing multiple guys they get they get three of

992
00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:50,399
Speaker 1: their offensive linement back, including their best fast offensive lineman,

993
00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 1: Jonah Williams, are left tackle. He's back, so that's obviously

994
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,520
Speaker 1: gonna be a huge factor here against this pass rush.

995
00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:59,840
Speaker 1: But look, the Bybals look terrible against Pittsburgh and Baltimore,

996
00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:03,120
Speaker 1: but against everybody else they've covered, you know they almost

997
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 1: be They're they're winning big in Indie right on the road. Um,

998
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 1: they tied the Eagles. They played the Browns uh type

999
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:13,839
Speaker 1: two times, right, they covered both times. Um, they played

1000
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 1: the Chargers tight, it was at three point loss. So

1001
00:51:15,960 --> 00:51:18,440
Speaker 1: I guess everybody else you know, they've been pretty good,

1002
00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:20,319
Speaker 1: and I guess the only they've only played one would

1003
00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:22,360
Speaker 1: you consider a bad team, and that's Jackson All. It

1004
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:24,719
Speaker 1: blew them out. So to me, it's like, I don't

1005
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 1: think they properly being rated, um, just because of kind

1006
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 1: of who they faced. So I think this is a

1007
00:51:30,800 --> 00:51:34,279
Speaker 1: good spot for them. You know, the secondary for Washington.

1008
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:36,880
Speaker 1: I know their numbers say that they're one of the

1009
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 1: better past defenses, but look they're playing all those bad

1010
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:43,080
Speaker 1: teams in those bad quarterbacks in this division. Um. You know,

1011
00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:45,840
Speaker 1: they faced the Lions last week without Kenny Golladay, so

1012
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 1: they've cut they caught some breaks here. From an opponent perspective,

1013
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: I just think that the Bengals are a good play here.

1014
00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,840
Speaker 1: You know, Alex Smith is getting pressured like crazy because

1015
00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 1: the other throw the ball beep, so you don't have

1016
00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 1: to worry about going, you know, getting hurt over the top.

1017
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:02,360
Speaker 1: So teams are putting pressure on him, and you know

1018
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,960
Speaker 1: you can't really feel confident laying points with a Washington

1019
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,239
Speaker 1: team here. So I think Cincinnati is the right side.

1020
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:10,200
Speaker 1: Tell me with you all right, final game, we have

1021
00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: to talk about this situation with Taysom Hill maybe starting

1022
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:18,239
Speaker 1: for Jamis Winston. Now, Schefter put it out there. If

1023
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:22,239
Speaker 1: Schefter puts it out it's probably true. Um. I was

1024
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:24,840
Speaker 1: surprised the line went down. I actually believe more in

1025
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:28,480
Speaker 1: Taysom hillton Jamis given his turnover woes. We know when

1026
00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:31,480
Speaker 1: Bridgewater filled in last year for Breeze, it was basically

1027
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,920
Speaker 1: checked down everything, keep it short, safe, no risky stuff.

1028
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:39,719
Speaker 1: Jamis is Mr risky. Uh Falcons know him well, I

1029
00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:42,200
Speaker 1: don't know. I backed off when I saw Taysom Hill

1030
00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 1: was going to be the starter. Where are you on

1031
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:47,040
Speaker 1: this one? Yeah? Well, so I personally took it before

1032
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:49,799
Speaker 1: the announcement a couple of days ago. I have Atlantic five,

1033
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:52,160
Speaker 1: so it doesn't really matter. Three and a half to

1034
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 1: five isn't really a big big move. So you get

1035
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:56,839
Speaker 1: two key numbers, but there's a couple of factors you're one.

1036
00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,840
Speaker 1: I mean, Atlanta obviously knows this Norman team very well.

1037
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:03,800
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan's been awesome, uh this year. Um in general,

1038
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:05,960
Speaker 1: the top ten quarterback in a lot of the metrics.

1039
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:07,879
Speaker 1: But you remember he played a couple of games without

1040
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,759
Speaker 1: Julio Jones. I mean, when Julio Jones has been in

1041
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 1: the in the lineup, he's completing seventy of his passes,

1042
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:18,359
Speaker 1: fourteen touchdowns, three interceptions, three hundred and twenty three yards

1043
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:21,279
Speaker 1: per game. I mean he's maybe, you know, top three

1044
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:24,400
Speaker 1: quarterback in the NFL with Julio in there. Marshawn Lattimore

1045
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:27,480
Speaker 1: is questionable. He may not play, but um, and they're

1046
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:29,960
Speaker 1: getting Calvin Ridley back, so and they're off a buyer

1047
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:32,360
Speaker 1: last year, they're in the same same exact spot against

1048
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:34,920
Speaker 1: the same team and they remember they blew him out nine.

1049
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: So from that perspective, I like the like where the

1050
00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:40,359
Speaker 1: Falcons are offensively. But yeah, with the thing with with

1051
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:43,160
Speaker 1: Taysom Hill and Jameis Winston Like, I'm surprised he would.

1052
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you think Taysom Hill, you think that's a positive.

1053
00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 1: The guy has thrown eighteen passes in his entire career.

1054
00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,560
Speaker 1: He's fumbled four times, by the way, four times on

1055
00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:56,280
Speaker 1: forty touches this year. Like, I don't. I'm not sure

1056
00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:59,319
Speaker 1: you can totally take the Drew Brees offense, which he's

1057
00:53:59,360 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 1: perfected with that short intermediate passing game and really just

1058
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:07,080
Speaker 1: insert a guy like you know, Jamis or Taysom Hill

1059
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 1: and just think the offense is going to be effective.

1060
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,399
Speaker 1: Like to me, the Falcons are top ten run defense too,

1061
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 1: so they should be able to slow down Murray and Camara.

1062
00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:17,960
Speaker 1: And I think Drew Brees does not get enough credit

1063
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 1: for just how perfect he um you know, orchestrates this offense.

1064
00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 1: He throws these swing texts to Kamara perfectly, like instride,

1065
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 1: and that's very valuable here when you've got a guy who,

1066
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:29,880
Speaker 1: maybe like Jamis or Tayson Hill, is not used to

1067
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:31,960
Speaker 1: that and you know, just awful little bit on those

1068
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:34,319
Speaker 1: swing passes allows the defense to come up and make

1069
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:36,400
Speaker 1: the tackle. Those little things I think matter, And I

1070
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,239
Speaker 1: think the timing will matter with a new quarterback. I'm

1071
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:41,279
Speaker 1: not buying the fact that Tayso Hill is gonna play

1072
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,040
Speaker 1: the whole game. I mean, I think, yeah, he may

1073
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:44,479
Speaker 1: just get the first drive and all of a sudden,

1074
00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:46,480
Speaker 1: Jamie's gets you know, a majority of the staff ust

1075
00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:48,880
Speaker 1: of the way. It's gamesmanship. I think it's smart of

1076
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:52,280
Speaker 1: Peyton to throw that out there because it makes Atlanta

1077
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:55,000
Speaker 1: to prepare for two different types of quarterbacks. But I

1078
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,319
Speaker 1: think overall I would not feel comfortable laying over three

1079
00:54:58,320 --> 00:55:01,000
Speaker 1: with either guy. So I like the Falcon. Yeah, Falcons

1080
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:02,720
Speaker 1: are passed for me. All right, t a great stuff.

1081
00:55:02,880 --> 00:55:06,239
Speaker 1: Enjoy the weekend, first Thanksgiving coming up with a kid,

1082
00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:10,400
Speaker 1: you know, Congrats on everything, and we'll talk to you soon. Alright,

1083
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:13,640
Speaker 1: coming up next year on Fox Sports Radio, we're gonna

1084
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:15,719
Speaker 1: look at the college football slade. I see Ohio State

1085
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:19,960
Speaker 1: warming up on Fox. Um. You know, I always say,

1086
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:23,360
Speaker 1: unfortunately is in here to take us through another COVID

1087
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:26,319
Speaker 1: filled college football weekend. We'll do that next year on

1088
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:31,839
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio. Yes we can kick it, I was Sam,

1089
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:35,360
Speaker 1: we can back here on Fox Sports Radio. It's me

1090
00:55:36,600 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 1: Jason mcinturk. Can we kick it? I'm looking at the

1091
00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:46,279
Speaker 1: college football schedule. Oh my, this is a really good game. Indiana,

1092
00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:51,360
Speaker 1: Ohio State undefeated. Top ten Indiana undefeated Ohio State. Um,

1093
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:52,879
Speaker 1: I a wold say I without looking do you want

1094
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:55,960
Speaker 1: to guess the spread or do you already know it?

1095
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:08,080
Speaker 1: Let's see here? Uh the spread? It's wow, twenty and

1096
00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:10,200
Speaker 1: a half. I think I saw it meaning a little

1097
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 1: nibble on the Hoosiers at under three touchdowns. I remember

1098
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,279
Speaker 1: betting this game. I forget if it was early last year,

1099
00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:20,040
Speaker 1: two years ago, and I was getting like somewhere in

1100
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:24,880
Speaker 1: the neighborhood of hung like seventy on them. So I'm

1101
00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:27,919
Speaker 1: done betting against Ohio State. You know. It's just yeah,

1102
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,879
Speaker 1: it's been a great thrill ride so far for Indiana. UM.

1103
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:32,319
Speaker 1: I just think that they're going to come back down

1104
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 1: to earth a little bit today when they you know,

1105
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,759
Speaker 1: they face an offense that they've never seen before. So

1106
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:39,840
Speaker 1: that's the best game of the day to top ten teams.

1107
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:42,560
Speaker 1: It's weird saying Indiana top ten, but you know, this

1108
00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:47,920
Speaker 1: is a strange season. UM, Cincinnati up to seven? They

1109
00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:51,120
Speaker 1: play UCF, So what's the deal? Are there fans anywhere

1110
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,840
Speaker 1: in college football this weekend? Deep South? Right? There are um,

1111
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 1: Like last night Louisville played Syracuse and there were I

1112
00:56:58,200 --> 00:57:00,840
Speaker 1: saw the attendance was eleven thousand. But now in the

1113
00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:04,000
Speaker 1: Big Ten, parents and friends can't even go to the games.

1114
00:57:04,280 --> 00:57:08,279
Speaker 1: So there will be zero people at Ohio Stadium today

1115
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:11,080
Speaker 1: except for like, you know, personnel. So why are they

1116
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:14,160
Speaker 1: banning parents? And just COVID is getting so out of control,

1117
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:16,080
Speaker 1: you know, like you can't even They're not gonna have anybody,

1118
00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:19,640
Speaker 1: even though you could spread out immensely through that massive stadium.

1119
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:22,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, guys, that seems strange. Yeah, I mean

1120
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 1: even I totally respect the fact that, let's let's take

1121
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,200
Speaker 1: it seriously, but you know you can't spread out, you know,

1122
00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:38,200
Speaker 1: a couple of hundred parents in close. Yeah. Disappointing, man um.

1123
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:43,000
Speaker 1: I see Florida plays Vandy. Thirty one favorites, not not

1124
00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 1: a ton of great morning games. I see U c

1125
00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:47,680
Speaker 1: l A Oregon. How about Chip Kelly? Are you all

1126
00:57:47,720 --> 00:57:50,480
Speaker 1: in back again on Chip Kelly? I do not expect

1127
00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:52,600
Speaker 1: him to win this game. I mean they put up

1128
00:57:52,640 --> 00:57:55,160
Speaker 1: a nice game, I believe against Cal, but you know

1129
00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:58,440
Speaker 1: Cal has barely played in its cal uh you know

1130
00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:01,200
Speaker 1: they had they only get up ten points. But again,

1131
00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:05,920
Speaker 1: who's their competition. I think Oregon rolls in this game. Um, Gavin,

1132
00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:10,200
Speaker 1: have you fired on anything today? Um? I did bet

1133
00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:14,160
Speaker 1: Cincinnati or where you cf Cincinnati's seventh ranked team in

1134
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: the Nations only a five point spread? Um? And then

1135
00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:22,880
Speaker 1: I am interested in the Wisconsin Northwestern game. I think

1136
00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:26,760
Speaker 1: that's gonna be a really good game. Yeah, seven and

1137
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:29,400
Speaker 1: a half point spread there, it's weird. All I heard

1138
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:32,080
Speaker 1: during the NBA bubble was well, this season doesn't really count.

1139
00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:34,240
Speaker 1: It's a bubble. It's unique. There's no fans, blah blah blah.

1140
00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 1: I no home court. I don't know. I know the

1141
00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:38,520
Speaker 1: college football is not in the bubble, but it's similar.

1142
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,040
Speaker 1: There was no home field advantage, there's no pre game,

1143
00:58:41,080 --> 00:58:44,200
Speaker 1: there's no pump and circumstance. I kind of feel the

1144
00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,480
Speaker 1: same way Gavin at all or Yeah, and look, I

1145
00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 1: feel the same way about the NBA. You know, Preston

1146
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 1: was questioning why people are putting such stock in in

1147
00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:55,840
Speaker 1: bubble games, and like, I agree, there's you know, a

1148
00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:58,600
Speaker 1: lot of that stuff was weird. Guys looked better or

1149
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:01,200
Speaker 1: worse than they would normal based on how they play

1150
00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:04,160
Speaker 1: in front of a crowd and don't forget what it's

1151
00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 1: like to play, especially in the playoffs, in front of

1152
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:10,280
Speaker 1: a giant crowd that's yelling at you. Right, Um, so

1153
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:12,560
Speaker 1: that's going to be interesting. And you know a lot

1154
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:15,680
Speaker 1: of these teams that have been able to have thousands

1155
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 1: of fans, they've performed better. We've seen it. And I

1156
00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:21,440
Speaker 1: think even the away teams a lot of times appreciate

1157
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:24,760
Speaker 1: playing in front of team, you know, fans. So, yeah,

1158
00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:29,480
Speaker 1: it's a tough one. College football really misses fans. NFL

1159
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:32,880
Speaker 1: kind of misses. But the shots are so tight that

1160
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:36,400
Speaker 1: you really can't tell that the stadium is pretty empty.

1161
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 1: You know. Well, part of me wonders if the rookie

1162
00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:41,760
Speaker 1: quarterbacks would be playing as well as they have if

1163
00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,919
Speaker 1: they went into hostile environment. That's a good take. Yeah, yeah,

1164
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,000
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow going into the Superdome where there's nobody and

1165
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 1: just slinging the ball around like is nothing probably doesn't

1166
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:55,640
Speaker 1: happen if there's what people or however, what's the number

1167
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:58,400
Speaker 1: in Mercedes Been super Dome screaming? It's a lot and

1168
00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,960
Speaker 1: more than fifty um at the super Dome. But it

1169
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:05,000
Speaker 1: does give these rookies a chance to mature a little bit.

1170
01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:06,600
Speaker 1: Before they actually do play in front of a crowd.

1171
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:08,280
Speaker 1: So that is nice. If you're a rookie this year,

1172
01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:10,640
Speaker 1: you can get adjusted to the speed of the game,

1173
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:12,960
Speaker 1: but you don't have to worry about, you know, crowds overwhelming.

1174
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:16,400
Speaker 1: A lot of positive vaccine news this week gives me

1175
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:21,000
Speaker 1: optimism for next football season. I'm not silly enough to say,

1176
01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:25,840
Speaker 1: you know, the spring, I'm holding out hope that the summer,

1177
01:00:25,920 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 1: the spring summer like the NBA finals next year, we'll

1178
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:32,120
Speaker 1: have fans. I really am. I'm hoping, and I know

1179
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:34,600
Speaker 1: the league is hoping that too, because they need the revenue.

1180
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:38,720
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Yeah, these owners, uh super desperate. Uh

1181
01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:40,720
Speaker 1: you know we could get into the Rockets owner and

1182
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:44,120
Speaker 1: his penny pinching ways. Um, we can look at the

1183
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 1: Warriors spending like drunken sailors so they can hopefully fill

1184
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:51,640
Speaker 1: that stadium. Uh. College basketball is supposed to tip off

1185
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:54,320
Speaker 1: next week. Is that real? I can't be real. I

1186
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:57,200
Speaker 1: see all these guys pushing out college basketball. Oh yeah,

1187
01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:01,400
Speaker 1: we got this game. Like we're seeing college football games

1188
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 1: postponed or canceled, and you think the teams are going

1189
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:07,840
Speaker 1: to travel and play indoors. That is the weirdest thing

1190
01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 1: of all of it. All the science, everything tells you

1191
01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:14,520
Speaker 1: if you're gonna do this stuff, be outside. It doesn't

1192
01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:18,040
Speaker 1: spread nearly as easily outside. And then you're talking about

1193
01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:22,280
Speaker 1: packing these arenas just insanity. It does. I don't see

1194
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 1: how it makes sense at all. And I like college hoops.

1195
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:27,960
Speaker 1: It really hurt the NBA draft. I mean, you're watching it.

1196
01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:32,680
Speaker 1: They took a guy, Patrick Williams fourth overall. He didn't

1197
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:35,120
Speaker 1: start one game for Florida State. He averaged like nine

1198
01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:37,760
Speaker 1: points a game. Like, a lot of people had no

1199
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:40,560
Speaker 1: idea who that guy was. They've never seen him in that.

1200
01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:42,480
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people had no idea who

1201
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:46,720
Speaker 1: any of these people are, including Anthony Edwards and James Wiseman.

1202
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:50,240
Speaker 1: Their names we knew, but we didn't get to see them. Yeah,

1203
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:53,360
Speaker 1: their games. Wiseman suspended for a portion of the college

1204
01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 1: basketball three games. The only one people knew was LaMelo

1205
01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:59,600
Speaker 1: Ball because he has four million followers on it. And

1206
01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:02,960
Speaker 1: how about that they included his social media numbers in

1207
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:05,960
Speaker 1: the packet of why they should draft him. Seriously, that

1208
01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,160
Speaker 1: was a report that came out that was part of

1209
01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:12,760
Speaker 1: the Labello LaMelo Ball camp was including his social media numbers.

1210
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 1: So here's the thing. Oh, it's embarrassing. Well, that's the thing.

1211
01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 1: He has four million followers. People want to follow him

1212
01:02:20,800 --> 01:02:23,640
Speaker 1: on Instagram. Does that mean they're paying money to go

1213
01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:26,680
Speaker 1: watch him play a basketball game? I would say no.

1214
01:02:28,320 --> 01:02:30,200
Speaker 1: My guess is no. And then you ask, well, how

1215
01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:34,920
Speaker 1: many people in Charlotte or in the surrounding areas are

1216
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:38,080
Speaker 1: big enough fans on that they follow him on Instagram

1217
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:39,760
Speaker 1: and then want to go pay money? Because the people

1218
01:02:39,760 --> 01:02:42,160
Speaker 1: who follow on on the Graham are probably like sixteen

1219
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:45,680
Speaker 1: year olds. Right, But if you're the parent and you go, oh,

1220
01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:49,240
Speaker 1: my kid really loves this guy, I'll for his birthday,

1221
01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:51,480
Speaker 1: I'll take him. You know, I could see that. But

1222
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:54,400
Speaker 1: how often? How many is that? Yeah? Exactly? All right?

1223
01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:56,560
Speaker 1: So coming up next year on Fox Sports Radio, we're

1224
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,640
Speaker 1: bringing in a guest from New York. Uh. He does

1225
01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:03,160
Speaker 1: raid yeo in New York. And I'm a little disappointed

1226
01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:06,360
Speaker 1: the Knicks. Uh, they're supposed to be making moves. In reality,

1227
01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:09,480
Speaker 1: they're getting used by free agents. Gordon they ward he

1228
01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:12,720
Speaker 1: could go to the Knicks. Why because they have money

1229
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:14,840
Speaker 1: to spend and the agent can use the Knicks. It's

1230
01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:17,080
Speaker 1: just a depressing time to be a Knicks fan. We'll

1231
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:20,880
Speaker 1: talk about general NBA stuff, but first there's Isaac Loewen

1232
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:24,240
Speaker 1: run with what's trending, Jason. Today's game between fourth Ryank

1233
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:27,280
Speaker 1: Clemson and Florida State in Tallahassee that was supposed to

1234
01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:28,920
Speaker 1: kick off at the top of the hour has been

1235
01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:32,160
Speaker 1: postponed because both teams of medical personnel were unable to

1236
01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:35,280
Speaker 1: mutually agree on moving forward with the game at a

1237
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:37,920
Speaker 1: conference call that was held earlier this morning. Pete the

1238
01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:41,400
Speaker 1: mel of Yahoo Sports reports that a Clemson backup offensive

1239
01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:45,440
Speaker 1: lineman tested positive for COVID from a test taken on Friday.

1240
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:49,320
Speaker 1: They received the results after Clemson landed in Tallahassee on

1241
01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:52,800
Speaker 1: Friday afternoon with the player aboard the plane. The Mel

1242
01:03:52,880 --> 01:03:56,040
Speaker 1: out of the Florida State officials were not comfortable because

1243
01:03:56,080 --> 01:04:00,400
Speaker 1: the player practiced this week while exhibiting COVID symptoms, even

1244
01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:03,640
Speaker 1: though he had been testing negative until Friday. Clums and

1245
01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:07,080
Speaker 1: star quarterback Trevor Lawrence tweeting a short time after the

1246
01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:10,600
Speaker 1: news was announced this morning, quote man, we were ready

1247
01:04:10,680 --> 01:04:14,400
Speaker 1: to play unquote. So that makes it eighteen college football

1248
01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:18,160
Speaker 1: games this week alone that have now been postponed or canceled.

1249
01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:21,840
Speaker 1: In the NBA. Adrian war Zanowski just reporting. Free agent

1250
01:04:21,920 --> 01:04:24,840
Speaker 1: guard Chris Dunnes agreed to a two year, ten million

1251
01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:27,480
Speaker 1: dollars deal with the Atlanta Hawks, so his time with

1252
01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:30,480
Speaker 1: the Bulls is done after three seasons. Last night, the

1253
01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:33,480
Speaker 1: world champion Los Angeles Lakers signed raining six Man of

1254
01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:37,120
Speaker 1: the Year Award winner Montrez Harrold to a two year deal.

1255
01:04:37,480 --> 01:04:40,680
Speaker 1: Jason back to you. All right, thank you, Isaac. Back

Speaker 1: Sports Radio studios. It's easy to say fiftent or more

01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:54,360
Speaker 1: on car insurance with Geico, go to geico dot com

1260
01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:58,280
Speaker 1: called one seven Auto. The only hard part figuring out

1261
01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:00,960
Speaker 1: which way is easier. All right, our next guest, I

1262
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:03,600
Speaker 1: don't think he's been on the show in like five years. Uh,

1263
01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:07,080
Speaker 1: you know, he's a big shot. Okay. He does radio

1264
01:05:07,360 --> 01:05:12,600
Speaker 1: in New York City point seven, ESPNS and the MSG Network.

1265
01:05:13,080 --> 01:05:16,880
Speaker 1: His name Alan Han Alan. Good morning. How are you? Jason?

1266
01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:20,240
Speaker 1: As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted, it's

1267
01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:23,800
Speaker 1: only been five years or however long it's did. Yeah,

1268
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:26,320
Speaker 1: it's been a while, and you know what, the Knicks

1269
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:30,360
Speaker 1: haven't done Jack squad in the last five years, and

1270
01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:32,480
Speaker 1: I wanted to add that part. I was gonna add

1271
01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:34,480
Speaker 1: that part like that, it really hasn't been much to

1272
01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:38,120
Speaker 1: discuss anyway, So yeah, I want to add I want

1273
01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 1: to have you on because I've been getting hammered by

1274
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:42,959
Speaker 1: these Knicks fans when I just start bashing the team

1275
01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:45,640
Speaker 1: on social media and I don't get it. It's like

1276
01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:49,480
Speaker 1: there is some weird optimism around the next we could

1277
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:53,160
Speaker 1: get Russell Westbrook. I I like what the moves they're making, Like,

1278
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,280
Speaker 1: go look at the depth chart for this team. By

1279
01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:58,760
Speaker 1: the way, it's so influx because there's so many moving

1280
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:03,480
Speaker 1: parts that are mostly irrelevant. All give me one reason

1281
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:08,120
Speaker 1: why anybody should have optimism about the Knicks this year. Uh,

1282
01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:10,320
Speaker 1: it's just the fact that they stick. They're sticking to

1283
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:13,360
Speaker 1: at least the plan of drafting players instead of trading

1284
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,920
Speaker 1: the draft picks. Um that they got a player who

1285
01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:17,560
Speaker 1: some people think could be a Rookie of the Year

1286
01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:20,600
Speaker 1: candidate that's might be ready to play right away and

1287
01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:23,480
Speaker 1: it will be topping um. And then they've got a

1288
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 1: ton of picks still coming up in the next couple

1289
01:06:25,720 --> 01:06:28,280
Speaker 1: of drafts, including the twenty three draft, which is the

1290
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:31,440
Speaker 1: one that we expect will have uh, we'll start including

1291
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:34,560
Speaker 1: high school players. They've got four second rounders and two

1292
01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:37,040
Speaker 1: firsts in that draft, which is gonna be a valuable

1293
01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:40,160
Speaker 1: draft to have assets. That's the extent of it. I

1294
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:42,880
Speaker 1: don't you know. I don't. I've been trying to quell

1295
01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:44,960
Speaker 1: it to on my show in New York when I

1296
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:47,600
Speaker 1: get Nick fans calling all the time, and I've tried

1297
01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:50,840
Speaker 1: to tell him the same thing that don't expect a

1298
01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:53,600
Speaker 1: lot like this is still they're not in any stage

1299
01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:56,920
Speaker 1: at all where they can start attracting free agents. Um,

1300
01:06:57,160 --> 01:06:59,560
Speaker 1: and there really weren't any free agents to talk about

1301
01:06:59,640 --> 01:07:02,480
Speaker 1: right now that would come here that that would that

1302
01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:05,280
Speaker 1: would change anything that's going on. Like you want that

1303
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:07,800
Speaker 1: immediate impact type of free agent that was last year

1304
01:07:07,880 --> 01:07:11,360
Speaker 1: and you missed it didn't happen, and so learn from it.

1305
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:13,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I think we've been through it enough that

1306
01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:16,440
Speaker 1: that you know you can't keep saying free agency is

1307
01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:18,560
Speaker 1: gonna save us. No, what's gonna save you is you

1308
01:07:18,600 --> 01:07:22,480
Speaker 1: got to operate like a franchise that knows how to draft,

1309
01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:27,800
Speaker 1: develop and build. And unfortunately, every time that's brought up here.

1310
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:29,600
Speaker 1: It's only lasted about a year or two and then

1311
01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:33,480
Speaker 1: something crazy happens, So I get the only optimism I

1312
01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:36,000
Speaker 1: can give is that at least that didn't happen in

1313
01:07:36,040 --> 01:07:39,600
Speaker 1: this year's draft and you're not seeing a bad contract

1314
01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:43,080
Speaker 1: yet being handed out to anybody that made you. You know,

1315
01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:45,880
Speaker 1: that gives you the face Paul moment of they gave

1316
01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:48,440
Speaker 1: work to who like, I'm just happy that the Detroit

1317
01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:52,000
Speaker 1: Pistons have taken that taken that lead this year and

1318
01:07:52,040 --> 01:07:54,720
Speaker 1: they're making those those why did they sign that guy

1319
01:07:54,880 --> 01:07:57,480
Speaker 1: kind of moves. So that's where it is right now.

1320
01:07:57,560 --> 01:07:59,840
Speaker 1: We'll see where it goes. But the only option is

1321
01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:02,120
Speaker 1: like view is that is that at least whatever plans

1322
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:04,200
Speaker 1: you know that seems to be in places building through

1323
01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:06,640
Speaker 1: the draft, they're sticking with it. So Allen, let me

1324
01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:10,160
Speaker 1: ask you, does the Nets being awesome this year? They're

1325
01:08:10,160 --> 01:08:14,480
Speaker 1: probably gonna be good? Hurt or help the Knicks? Uh?

1326
01:08:14,840 --> 01:08:18,240
Speaker 1: You know, it depends on It's a great question. I

1327
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:22,880
Speaker 1: think in past years and past regimes it might hurt

1328
01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:26,320
Speaker 1: because you get that itchy trigger finger. Whoa, you know

1329
01:08:26,439 --> 01:08:28,560
Speaker 1: what the Nets are doing? We gotta keep up? And

1330
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:31,479
Speaker 1: I said, I feel like, the worst thing you could

1331
01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:36,120
Speaker 1: have done is try to do something crazy rash that

1332
01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:38,840
Speaker 1: just is so so you feel like you're kind of

1333
01:08:38,920 --> 01:08:41,920
Speaker 1: competing with what the nets are doing. And and I

1334
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:45,200
Speaker 1: actually promoted the idea of Russell Westbrook weeks before it

1335
01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:47,640
Speaker 1: came out, because I said, if there's something gonna that

1336
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:49,760
Speaker 1: you could do, it could be something like that. But

1337
01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:53,240
Speaker 1: that third year at forty seven million, that's that's got it.

1338
01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:55,960
Speaker 1: Make you pause, that's got it that makes you jam

1339
01:08:56,120 --> 01:08:58,240
Speaker 1: on the break, like, whoa, whoa, that's a bit much,

1340
01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:01,759
Speaker 1: Chris Paul. I can see that only two years Russell Westbrook,

1341
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:04,280
Speaker 1: that's a third year at forty seven million dollars and

1342
01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:06,920
Speaker 1: he'll be thirty five at the time, and it kind

1343
01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,639
Speaker 1: of messes. It doesn't really it's align with what you're

1344
01:09:09,680 --> 01:09:12,400
Speaker 1: doing with the twenty two and twenty one year old

1345
01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:14,200
Speaker 1: you have on the roster right now that you're trying

1346
01:09:14,200 --> 01:09:16,599
Speaker 1: to build. So if you were going to go that route,

1347
01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:19,280
Speaker 1: you go Westbrook and you know Gallinari or something like that,

1348
01:09:19,439 --> 01:09:22,599
Speaker 1: and you you go for broke, you're you're only still

1349
01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:25,360
Speaker 1: way behind the nets, and it looks more embarrassing that

1350
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:29,080
Speaker 1: you were trying so hard. Instead, I think it's best

1351
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:31,400
Speaker 1: to say, go ahead, let them do that their windows

1352
01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:35,479
Speaker 1: about two years when they're on the decline. You know,

1353
01:09:35,640 --> 01:09:38,160
Speaker 1: you hope as the Knicks, your young guys are starting

1354
01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:40,960
Speaker 1: to be on the rise, that's what you're hoping for. Yeah,

1355
01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:43,160
Speaker 1: I'm with you on that, Allen. Here's my concern. And

1356
01:09:43,200 --> 01:09:47,120
Speaker 1: I've seen this show with Dolan, that clown so many times. Okay,

1357
01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:49,800
Speaker 1: that Brooklyn Nets are gonna be awesome. They're gonna be

1358
01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:53,560
Speaker 1: a top three seed in the East. Every day the

1359
01:09:53,600 --> 01:09:55,560
Speaker 1: back pages are gonna be talking about how great the

1360
01:09:55,640 --> 01:09:57,840
Speaker 1: Nets are. And then when the Knicks are onna stand alone,

1361
01:09:57,880 --> 01:10:01,519
Speaker 1: they get crushed by hapless Knicks. Paper bags over the heads,

1362
01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:05,120
Speaker 1: you know how this goes. That's when I wonder if

1363
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:07,000
Speaker 1: the Knicks phone office will still be able to hold

1364
01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:09,439
Speaker 1: the line. No, no, you know what, let me counter,

1365
01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:13,000
Speaker 1: Let me counter, let me counter. There's nobody gonna be

1366
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:16,280
Speaker 1: in the building right like this. If there's every year,

1367
01:10:16,479 --> 01:10:18,920
Speaker 1: if there's every year to endure it, it would be

1368
01:10:18,960 --> 01:10:21,120
Speaker 1: a year where you don't have to really worry about

1369
01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:24,360
Speaker 1: those moments where the place is booing, you know what

1370
01:10:24,439 --> 01:10:26,800
Speaker 1: I mean. Like, if there's every year, it be now

1371
01:10:27,320 --> 01:10:29,120
Speaker 1: so I don't think you know, you don't hear it

1372
01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:32,200
Speaker 1: because you're not there. So I do think there's something

1373
01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:33,960
Speaker 1: to be said about that, but I also think you

1374
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:38,240
Speaker 1: know what you what you said. And again full disclosure,

1375
01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:43,280
Speaker 1: you know I do also do work for MSG network. Done. No,

1376
01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:45,680
Speaker 1: it's not about trouble. I've always speaking my mind, but

1377
01:10:46,120 --> 01:10:47,800
Speaker 1: you know, I do also want to make sure people

1378
01:10:47,880 --> 01:10:50,479
Speaker 1: understand that. But I'm not I'm not going this way

1379
01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:52,880
Speaker 1: for that reason. I'm going this way because it can

1380
01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:56,439
Speaker 1: be a bit unfair. That is something that happened a

1381
01:10:56,560 --> 01:10:59,479
Speaker 1: bunch of years ago and people still can't get over it,

1382
01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:03,960
Speaker 1: and it hasn't happened since. So the you know, the

1383
01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:07,439
Speaker 1: idea of the owners stepping into the front office and saying,

1384
01:11:07,880 --> 01:11:09,680
Speaker 1: you know, tear this thing up. I can't take it,

1385
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:12,360
Speaker 1: spend money, do this, do that trade. He's got those

1386
01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:14,920
Speaker 1: days that that's almost a decade ago now, Jake, that

1387
01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:17,320
Speaker 1: that's that's a long time ago, and it's something he

1388
01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:19,880
Speaker 1: vowed to never do again, and so far he's kept

1389
01:11:19,920 --> 01:11:21,479
Speaker 1: his word. And the problem is that the people he's

1390
01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:23,639
Speaker 1: hired that he stayed out of the way. He stayed

1391
01:11:23,640 --> 01:11:25,560
Speaker 1: out of Phil's way, and we were like, get in

1392
01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:28,600
Speaker 1: the way, you know what I mean. And then and

1393
01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:30,519
Speaker 1: then the next group comes in and Steve Mills and

1394
01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:33,920
Speaker 1: Scott Perry, and they had their plan, and people really thought, Okay,

1395
01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:36,679
Speaker 1: you know all right, they they really must know something.

1396
01:11:36,720 --> 01:11:38,680
Speaker 1: They're doing this. They trade porzingis they get all this

1397
01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:41,599
Speaker 1: cap space. They must know something. They must really believe

1398
01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:45,479
Speaker 1: that Katie's coming. And then that doesn't happen. So he

1399
01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:49,080
Speaker 1: never stepped in. So I really do think that it

1400
01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:52,720
Speaker 1: right now, I don't think that's gonna happen again. And

1401
01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:55,240
Speaker 1: I will add that with no one in the building

1402
01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:58,280
Speaker 1: to boo, no one in the building to to yell

1403
01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:02,040
Speaker 1: and screaming, and no one to have rabbit ears, there's

1404
01:12:02,040 --> 01:12:03,720
Speaker 1: ever a year to get through, it would be this morning.

1405
01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 1: And and Alan, I'll get you out of on this.

1406
01:12:05,600 --> 01:12:07,799
Speaker 1: Like I'm sure a lot of people around the country

1407
01:12:07,800 --> 01:12:08,960
Speaker 1: are hearing this and be like, why do you guys

1408
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:11,000
Speaker 1: talking about the Knicks? Who cares? Well, you know, the

1409
01:12:11,160 --> 01:12:14,519
Speaker 1: NIXT kind of they're kind of employer to the NBA,

1410
01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:20,200
Speaker 1: like the NBA has you know, ratings are are are

1411
01:12:20,680 --> 01:12:23,200
Speaker 1: matter more in the big cities obviously, right, you need

1412
01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:27,560
Speaker 1: New York to Yeah, and now just doesn't apply the

1413
01:12:28,439 --> 01:12:30,760
Speaker 1: l you have the Clippers and Lakers, the Clippers and

1414
01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:32,960
Speaker 1: Lakers of the ideal. It's the number two market and

1415
01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:36,960
Speaker 1: both franchises are lit, and that's great. And what you

1416
01:12:37,040 --> 01:12:39,760
Speaker 1: want on Christmas Day is Lakers Clippers. You want nick nets.

1417
01:12:40,160 --> 01:12:42,280
Speaker 1: If you don't want nick nets, that the Knicks are

1418
01:12:42,320 --> 01:12:44,120
Speaker 1: a bunch of kids who are gonna get their heads

1419
01:12:44,160 --> 01:12:47,439
Speaker 1: kicked in. You want star power, you have it in Brooklyn.

1420
01:12:47,840 --> 01:12:49,519
Speaker 1: You don't have it in New York. Which is why

1421
01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:51,720
Speaker 1: again I kept an eye on the Russell Westbrook thing,

1422
01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:53,880
Speaker 1: because I'm thinking, if I'm the league, I want that.

1423
01:12:54,120 --> 01:12:56,759
Speaker 1: I want Russell Westwood versus KD. I want that rivalry,

1424
01:12:56,800 --> 01:12:58,920
Speaker 1: I want all that. But the Knicks are saying we're

1425
01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:00,640
Speaker 1: not at that place and we're not doing it. And

1426
01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:03,360
Speaker 1: that shows you there is some hesitation because in the past,

1427
01:13:03,400 --> 01:13:06,400
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, if Isaiah Thomas running this franchise, Westbrook

1428
01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:09,240
Speaker 1: is already in there, he's all the press comfor already happens.

1429
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:12,200
Speaker 1: So that's why there's things. That's why you if there's

1430
01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:15,080
Speaker 1: any reasonably things are changing, that's how you believe it.

1431
01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:19,120
Speaker 1: But you're right, especially today with the money they're losing

1432
01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:22,200
Speaker 1: with nobody in the building. The networks want the New

1433
01:13:22,320 --> 01:13:24,400
Speaker 1: York market and the l A markets to be lit.

1434
01:13:24,800 --> 01:13:27,320
Speaker 1: And right now half the market in New York has lit,

1435
01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:31,519
Speaker 1: and about of the market cares about the nets ad

1436
01:13:31,680 --> 01:13:34,080
Speaker 1: care about the Knicks. There's a lot more frustration than

1437
01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:36,479
Speaker 1: there is celebration. This doesn't apply to the NFL. The

1438
01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:40,400
Speaker 1: Jets and the Giants stink the Jets. The NFL is

1439
01:13:40,439 --> 01:13:44,200
Speaker 1: impervious to this. You can throw on Russell Wilson against

1440
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:48,040
Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes in prime time and get people watching NBA.

1441
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:51,760
Speaker 1: NBA has had Chicago down for about a decade. Uh

1442
01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,160
Speaker 1: the Knicks down for a decade. This this is bad

1443
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:57,280
Speaker 1: for the league because in that early time slot on

1444
01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:01,599
Speaker 1: Thursday or Monday or whatever night, you you can't really sell.

1445
01:14:01,640 --> 01:14:04,360
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, you can't sell. Hey, we're gonna put on Memphis.

1446
01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:07,559
Speaker 1: We're gonna put on Indiana. They sell stars. That's why

1447
01:14:07,640 --> 01:14:09,760
Speaker 1: they sell the stars. And and you know what, I'm good.

1448
01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:12,160
Speaker 1: You're the only one that I've ever talked because I've

1449
01:14:12,200 --> 01:14:14,160
Speaker 1: said this, I'm yelling in the wind. Nobody hears it.

1450
01:14:14,479 --> 01:14:16,960
Speaker 1: You're the only other person I've heard say that, Because

1451
01:14:17,040 --> 01:14:19,599
Speaker 1: all I get is the NBA doesn't need the Knicks,

1452
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:22,560
Speaker 1: because you know, look at the ratings and look at this,

1453
01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:24,960
Speaker 1: and I'm like, are you not sorry? You're telling me

1454
01:14:25,080 --> 01:14:28,160
Speaker 1: then that all of their all of their consumption is

1455
01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:30,240
Speaker 1: up in the past decade, and the Knicks have been

1456
01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:32,280
Speaker 1: a bad team, So that I'm gonna add to that. Well,

1457
01:14:32,439 --> 01:14:35,360
Speaker 1: just imagine how much more it would be if if

1458
01:14:35,400 --> 01:14:38,960
Speaker 1: the Knicks were what the Lakers or Clippers were, because

1459
01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:40,800
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, don't even go that far, if

1460
01:14:40,840 --> 01:14:45,040
Speaker 1: the Knicks were just simply at win team every year

1461
01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:48,799
Speaker 1: and made the playoffs. These people are rapid for this sport,

1462
01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:51,519
Speaker 1: and the problem is over the last six years, it's

1463
01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:55,680
Speaker 1: nothing but frustration, and it's been it's been maddening. And

1464
01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:58,559
Speaker 1: so now you have a fan base that is almost

1465
01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:02,560
Speaker 1: afraid to believe in anything this team does anything. So

1466
01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:05,200
Speaker 1: that's why the league needs this team to be good.

1467
01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:08,080
Speaker 1: And yet it's still gonna take a little while. As

1468
01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 1: we're as we're seeing the way for free agents going,

1469
01:15:10,439 --> 01:15:12,679
Speaker 1: frejency is going, and it doesn't look like they're gonna

1470
01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:14,559
Speaker 1: be making a lot of major moves here. Not yet.

1471
01:15:14,800 --> 01:15:17,240
Speaker 1: He's Alan Han follow him on Twitter at a L

1472
01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:19,560
Speaker 1: A n H A h N does a show with

1473
01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:23,439
Speaker 1: Bart Scott can't Wait. That's the name of the show.

1474
01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:26,559
Speaker 1: But Bart Scott is that guy seven ESPN in New

1475
01:15:26,640 --> 01:15:28,640
Speaker 1: York and he's on the MSG network. Allan, thanks a lot,

01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:07,160
Speaker 1: am I eating chocolate chip cookies at nine in the morning.

1487
01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:09,120
Speaker 1: I thought you were eating candy or something. No, no,

1488
01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:13,160
Speaker 1: we're out of Halloween candy. Trust me, I've looked. Probably

1489
01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:17,640
Speaker 1: good for your your pancreas. Yeah again. I opened the

1490
01:16:17,680 --> 01:16:21,120
Speaker 1: show talking about like my back injury, so just standing

1491
01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:22,880
Speaker 1: up during the break trying to stretch. Dude, guys have

1492
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:25,599
Speaker 1: never felt like a pain like this. Holy cow, um

1493
01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:29,439
Speaker 1: it sucks getting old and I'm not even that old.

1494
01:16:29,479 --> 01:16:31,679
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I threw out my back coughing,

1495
01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:36,240
Speaker 1: which is really embarrassing to admit. Um, I don't know, man,

1496
01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:41,400
Speaker 1: it's it's weird. Like I was looking on YouTube just now,

1497
01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:45,280
Speaker 1: like backstretching exercises and no joke. I texted the wife,

1498
01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:47,559
Speaker 1: you know, because I've seen enough NFL games where they

1499
01:16:47,560 --> 01:16:49,160
Speaker 1: give you a shot out what is it, total roll

1500
01:16:49,600 --> 01:16:51,840
Speaker 1: and you just you get you plowed through the pain,

1501
01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:55,400
Speaker 1: and I'm like, can I go get a shot somewhere?

1502
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:57,560
Speaker 1: Like I don't want to spend laying down on my

1503
01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:00,960
Speaker 1: back the whole damn weekend. This is Have you ever

1504
01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:03,479
Speaker 1: had a back injury? I him, Yes I did. Actually

1505
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:07,280
Speaker 1: I was delivering packages with ups. I was saying, package handler,

1506
01:17:07,920 --> 01:17:10,400
Speaker 1: working part time, and I just bent over to pick

1507
01:17:10,479 --> 01:17:13,519
Speaker 1: up a package and pulled my back so bad. So

1508
01:17:13,600 --> 01:17:16,439
Speaker 1: I did a little yoga um to rehab. And also

1509
01:17:17,040 --> 01:17:20,600
Speaker 1: if you just lay on a wood box like in

1510
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:23,559
Speaker 1: the square of your back, it can really help stretch

1511
01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:26,560
Speaker 1: it out. I know that sounds strange. Are your legs dangling? No? No,

1512
01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:28,800
Speaker 1: it's like it's like a little maybe like smaller than

1513
01:17:28,840 --> 01:17:30,960
Speaker 1: a shoe box like something, and then you just lay

1514
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:33,320
Speaker 1: it and it sort of stretches all the muscles out. Also,

1515
01:17:33,439 --> 01:17:34,800
Speaker 1: if you can, if you have a friend that has

1516
01:17:34,840 --> 01:17:36,800
Speaker 1: like a teeter hang up, you ever heard of those?

1517
01:17:37,280 --> 01:17:39,720
Speaker 1: Have an inversion table? You have one, to go use it.

1518
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:42,200
Speaker 1: I was on it yesterday multiple It should help, It

1519
01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:45,840
Speaker 1: should help. It was a little uh nerve wracking last night.

1520
01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:47,559
Speaker 1: I lay down and then I'm like, oh my gosh,

1521
01:17:47,560 --> 01:17:48,760
Speaker 1: do you have to lay on? So I laid on

1522
01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:50,200
Speaker 1: a pillow at the beginning, and I was like, just

1523
01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:55,800
Speaker 1: too much? Is painful? Painful? Some epps, some salts, you know,

1524
01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:58,200
Speaker 1: get it, Get a little hot water, gone right, yep, yep, yep.

1525
01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:00,679
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to dig deep, all right. Best bets

1526
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:03,439
Speaker 1: for college football? Gavin Iowa saying, what do you guys got?

1527
01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:08,320
Speaker 1: I really like Cincinnati today? Um, I just saw the

1528
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:11,920
Speaker 1: game day, folks. I'll pick them, um there only it's

1529
01:18:11,960 --> 01:18:14,880
Speaker 1: only like a seven point spread. Um. A couple of

1530
01:18:14,920 --> 01:18:16,920
Speaker 1: guys I know in the business are hot on that

1531
01:18:17,040 --> 01:18:20,320
Speaker 1: game as well. So I'm gonna roll with Cincinnati. Dad,

1532
01:18:20,360 --> 01:18:22,200
Speaker 1: I would say, is there anything you want to fire on?

1533
01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:26,439
Speaker 1: I like Wisconsin today? Um, Oh my gosh, they killed Michigan,

1534
01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:29,120
Speaker 1: and yes, I think they're really good. I like Iowa

1535
01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:30,800
Speaker 1: State to beat Kansas State. I don't know if they

1536
01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:33,440
Speaker 1: cover that thirteen, but I like them to beat the Wildcats.

1537
01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:35,680
Speaker 1: And then you're speaking of this actually alluded to this.

1538
01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:40,000
Speaker 1: Oklahoma Oklahoma State is a big game this year because

1539
01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:43,120
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State has a lot writing on that game. But

1540
01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:45,760
Speaker 1: Oklahoma has one I think five in row and something

1541
01:18:45,840 --> 01:18:49,599
Speaker 1: like seven last eight against the Cowboys. So if if

1542
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:53,040
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State loses to Oklahoma, then Iowa State, if they

1543
01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:55,519
Speaker 1: beat the Wildcats, will be in first place in the

1544
01:18:55,560 --> 01:18:57,680
Speaker 1: Big twelve, which is just crazy talk. This is one

1545
01:18:57,720 --> 01:19:01,400
Speaker 1: of those years, like I I don't hear any Heisman chatter.

1546
01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:03,479
Speaker 1: As soon as Trevor Lawrence went down, I was like, Okay,

1547
01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:07,400
Speaker 1: well Trevor Lawrence winning. It might be Mac Jones Zack

1548
01:19:07,479 --> 01:19:09,519
Speaker 1: Wilson at b y U. Although they've played a lot

1549
01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:14,040
Speaker 1: of you know, cream puffs. Yeah, um Heisman talk. Even

1550
01:19:14,080 --> 01:19:16,040
Speaker 1: the playoff usually at this point we're like, oh, who

1551
01:19:16,080 --> 01:19:17,880
Speaker 1: are the top four? Should we expand to eight? Like

1552
01:19:17,960 --> 01:19:20,679
Speaker 1: there's been not a lot of that with college football.

1553
01:19:20,680 --> 01:19:22,320
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, once the game started, it's fun to

1554
01:19:22,360 --> 01:19:26,679
Speaker 1: watch him USC has an interesting one. Um a little

1555
01:19:26,720 --> 01:19:29,920
Speaker 1: bit later this morning against Utah. Utah also hasn't played yet.

1556
01:19:30,120 --> 01:19:32,240
Speaker 1: They haven't played a game. They haven't played a single game.

1557
01:19:32,280 --> 01:19:34,760
Speaker 1: They're the one team in the pack twelve that has

1558
01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:36,920
Speaker 1: not played yet. Oh my gosh. So how do you

1559
01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:39,479
Speaker 1: handicap that their u USC is only favored by three

1560
01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:42,840
Speaker 1: on the road. I'm assuming no fans Utah getting destroyed

1561
01:19:42,880 --> 01:19:45,439
Speaker 1: by COVID right now. Yeah, I don't know. I really

1562
01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:47,960
Speaker 1: don't know. USC is a slight favorite here, but um,

1563
01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:51,120
Speaker 1: you know road where they I think they lost to

1564
01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:54,880
Speaker 1: know they'll beat you. They beat Utah last year, but um, yeah,

1565
01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:57,360
Speaker 1: it'll be tough. Utah is a good secondary and I

1566
01:19:57,439 --> 01:20:00,519
Speaker 1: do worry about that because Kea didn't slow ovis has

1567
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:03,120
Speaker 1: it looked as as good as I had hoped. So

1568
01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:07,080
Speaker 1: USC's got a tough, tough game here. Yeah, we thought slogans.

1569
01:20:07,439 --> 01:20:10,040
Speaker 1: I mean, he could still look better, but this is

1570
01:20:10,080 --> 01:20:12,479
Speaker 1: a disjointed season. It's all. Yeah, it's just you know,

1571
01:20:12,640 --> 01:20:14,439
Speaker 1: and I don't think all the wide receivers around the

1572
01:20:14,560 --> 01:20:17,200
Speaker 1: same page. You know, since we got like, you know,

1573
01:20:17,280 --> 01:20:19,599
Speaker 1: less than a minute Gavin quick question on this chess

1574
01:20:19,680 --> 01:20:23,840
Speaker 1: show that we're watching. Um, they don't like the chess

1575
01:20:23,960 --> 01:20:25,880
Speaker 1: is tough to follow because of the angles. Do you

1576
01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:29,160
Speaker 1: think that's by design? Yeah? And I think there's some

1577
01:20:29,360 --> 01:20:32,240
Speaker 1: scenes where they show they do a really good job

1578
01:20:32,280 --> 01:20:35,800
Speaker 1: of showing the facial reactions to the moves, because obviously

1579
01:20:36,240 --> 01:20:38,960
Speaker 1: most people watching the games are not gonna know that,

1580
01:20:39,280 --> 01:20:42,200
Speaker 1: you know what each move has put the other person.

1581
01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:46,560
Speaker 1: So by showing the facial reactions and they're upset or

1582
01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:50,559
Speaker 1: curious or that kind of thing, it helps to follow. Uh,

1583
01:20:50,840 --> 01:20:52,320
Speaker 1: it's just what. I'm a big chess guy. I have

1584
01:20:52,400 --> 01:20:54,240
Speaker 1: a chess app and I try to play from time

1585
01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:56,960
Speaker 1: to time, but I hate being on my phone so much. Alright,

1586
01:20:57,040 --> 01:21:01,439
Speaker 1: Final Hour coming up next, NFL Picks. We got a

1587
01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:04,679
Speaker 1: Lakers guests coming up. Keep it locked. Today's game between

1588
01:21:04,760 --> 01:21:08,320
Speaker 1: fourth rank Clemson and Florida State in Tallahassee was supposed

1589
01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:11,240
Speaker 1: to kick off as we speak, but instead Clemson's team

1590
01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:14,000
Speaker 1: plane is on the tarmac as we speak, about to

1591
01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:17,599
Speaker 1: fly home. The game was postponed just three hours ago

1592
01:21:17,720 --> 01:21:21,200
Speaker 1: because both teams medical personnel were unable to mutually agree

1593
01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:23,519
Speaker 1: on moving forward with the game at a conference call

1594
01:21:23,640 --> 01:21:26,880
Speaker 1: earlier this morning. Pete the Mel of Yahoo Sports reports

1595
01:21:26,920 --> 01:21:30,840
Speaker 1: a Clemson backup offensive lineman tested positive for COVID from

1596
01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:34,320
Speaker 1: a test taken Friday. They received the results after Clemson

1597
01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:37,880
Speaker 1: had landed in Tallahassee Friday afternoon with the player aboard.

1598
01:21:38,240 --> 01:21:41,559
Speaker 1: Florida State officials were not comfortable proceeding because the player

1599
01:21:41,680 --> 01:21:45,800
Speaker 1: practiced this week while exhibiting COVID symptoms, even though he

1600
01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:49,200
Speaker 1: had been testing negative until Friday. Kicking off right now,

1601
01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 1: number three Ohio State taken on ninth ranked Indiana at

1602
01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:57,000
Speaker 1: the Horseshoe, sixth ranked Florida playing at Vanderbilt. I'm Isaac

1603
01:21:57,080 --> 01:22:05,400
Speaker 1: Lowan Kron. Hello, our number three here on the Jason

1608
01:22:20,880 --> 01:22:24,040
Speaker 1: high noon on the East Coast. College football kicking off everywhere.

1609
01:22:24,080 --> 01:22:26,320
Speaker 1: We'll get into that in a little bit, but we

1610
01:22:26,439 --> 01:22:29,560
Speaker 1: wanted to quickly revisit what we opened the show with

1611
01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:35,599
Speaker 1: and the madness from the NBA last night, and chief

1612
01:22:35,760 --> 01:22:40,200
Speaker 1: among it, uh, what's going on with the l a Lakers,

1613
01:22:40,240 --> 01:22:44,320
Speaker 1: the defending champion Lakers. Lebron has somehow gotten this team

1614
01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:46,960
Speaker 1: way better. We'll give Rappolinka some credit, but we thought

1615
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:51,479
Speaker 1: to break it down, we'd invite everybody's favorite Laker beat writer,

1616
01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:56,639
Speaker 1: Tania Gongouli from The l A Times. Tania, good morning,

1617
01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:59,880
Speaker 1: how are you? I'm doing great? How are you doing?

1618
01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:02,599
Speaker 1: That's good? I've been better. I got a little back injury.

1619
01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:06,280
Speaker 1: But the good news is the Lakers got a lot

1620
01:23:06,439 --> 01:23:09,479
Speaker 1: better in the last I don't know, four days. There

1621
01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:12,280
Speaker 1: has to be major optimism about the team. Now you

1622
01:23:12,320 --> 01:23:14,560
Speaker 1: look at the other contenders. Maybe the Bucks got a

1623
01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:17,320
Speaker 1: little better, but their depth is not as good, and

1624
01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:21,439
Speaker 1: the Lakers got a lot better. Adding Dennis shrewder Mantraz,

1625
01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:24,240
Speaker 1: Harold talked me through this Harold thing, and what on

1626
01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:28,799
Speaker 1: earth happened with Dwight Howard. Yeah, I mean they definitely

1627
01:23:28,840 --> 01:23:32,320
Speaker 1: they got younger. They got they got younger and better

1628
01:23:32,439 --> 01:23:35,360
Speaker 1: at a few important positions. The Dwight Haward situation, I mean,

1629
01:23:35,760 --> 01:23:39,920
Speaker 1: as I it was very Dwight Howard. Um, you know,

1630
01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:45,840
Speaker 1: the to have something something, to have him reveal something

1631
01:23:45,960 --> 01:23:49,800
Speaker 1: and then back off of it and then all this confusion. Um,

1632
01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:52,000
Speaker 1: you know, it sounds just like he jumped the gun

1633
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,680
Speaker 1: a little bit, and uh thought that he was going

1634
01:23:54,760 --> 01:23:57,360
Speaker 1: to be returning to the Lakers, but ultimately that didn't

1635
01:23:57,360 --> 01:24:00,560
Speaker 1: work out. And I mean the Lakers, you know, I

1636
01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:04,960
Speaker 1: think they showed that they you know, they talked a

1637
01:24:05,040 --> 01:24:07,000
Speaker 1: lot during the year about how it was valuable to

1638
01:24:07,080 --> 01:24:09,720
Speaker 1: have the centers that they had and they needed to

1639
01:24:09,800 --> 01:24:11,960
Speaker 1: have that depth. But when it came down to it,

1640
01:24:12,040 --> 01:24:13,760
Speaker 1: when they were in the playoffs and they needed to

1641
01:24:14,560 --> 01:24:18,400
Speaker 1: they needed to win, they didn't really need them that much. Um,

1642
01:24:19,120 --> 01:24:21,479
Speaker 1: So I think that, but you know, they then they

1643
01:24:21,560 --> 01:24:24,000
Speaker 1: bring in another big guy in Manchesse Harold, who's a

1644
01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:27,559
Speaker 1: better player than Dwight Howard than who's you know, going

1645
01:24:27,640 --> 01:24:30,160
Speaker 1: to be a better fit for them. And I mean,

1646
01:24:30,200 --> 01:24:31,559
Speaker 1: I don't think you can I don't think you can

1647
01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:34,320
Speaker 1: knock that from the Lakers perspective. Yeah, do you think

1648
01:24:34,479 --> 01:24:37,120
Speaker 1: Tony anything had to do with Lakers getting him on

1649
01:24:37,160 --> 01:24:40,000
Speaker 1: the cheap given how badly the Clippers fell apart? Now,

1650
01:24:40,120 --> 01:24:43,160
Speaker 1: Harold played poorly in the bubble, but it's such a

1651
01:24:43,280 --> 01:24:46,760
Speaker 1: small sample size on him given the last essentially three

1652
01:24:46,960 --> 01:24:51,040
Speaker 1: years of really high quality play. Yeah, and the bubble

1653
01:24:51,160 --> 01:24:53,640
Speaker 1: is a hard thing to judge people based on. You know,

1654
01:24:53,760 --> 01:24:57,120
Speaker 1: the bubble was Manchres. Harold didn't come to the bubble

1655
01:24:57,280 --> 01:24:59,800
Speaker 1: for a while because his grandmother died and he had

1656
01:24:59,840 --> 01:25:02,680
Speaker 1: that weighing on him. Um. You know, the Clippers had

1657
01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:05,800
Speaker 1: all sorts of issues that maybe a on a team

1658
01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:08,160
Speaker 1: that has a little bit better chemistry, you can you

1659
01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:10,560
Speaker 1: can resolve those. And that's you know, I think that

1660
01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:13,080
Speaker 1: that's the biggest thing the Lakers had over the Clippers,

1661
01:25:13,479 --> 01:25:16,439
Speaker 1: um last year, was their chemistry. The Clippers always they're

1662
01:25:16,439 --> 01:25:19,160
Speaker 1: always going to be something going wrong with UM. That's

1663
01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:22,120
Speaker 1: how the Clippers got along with each other. And that's

1664
01:25:22,160 --> 01:25:24,840
Speaker 1: not a new thing for that organization. But I wonder,

1665
01:25:25,240 --> 01:25:27,200
Speaker 1: I do wonder how much that had to play into it,

1666
01:25:27,320 --> 01:25:30,960
Speaker 1: because even after they got all their players back, um,

1667
01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:34,160
Speaker 1: even after they got other players back from whatever it was,

1668
01:25:34,240 --> 01:25:38,320
Speaker 1: extra quarantine from being away for families, deaths, they just

1669
01:25:38,680 --> 01:25:41,320
Speaker 1: they weren't really happy with each other. Yeah. Do you

1670
01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:44,760
Speaker 1: think that this was taken well in the Clippers locker

1671
01:25:44,840 --> 01:25:47,519
Speaker 1: room because and again I know it's speculation, but it

1672
01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:50,840
Speaker 1: looked like Patrick Beverley was very unhappy on social media

1673
01:25:51,880 --> 01:25:56,160
Speaker 1: and nothing from Kaui or Paul George. I mean, if

1674
01:25:56,240 --> 01:25:57,560
Speaker 1: you had to ask me who was the heart and

1675
01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:00,160
Speaker 1: soul of that Clippers team last year. I mean it's

1676
01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:01,800
Speaker 1: basically like pull a name out of a hat, but

1677
01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:04,559
Speaker 1: it would probably be Harold or Lou Williams, right, they

1678
01:26:04,600 --> 01:26:08,280
Speaker 1: had been there the longest. Yeah, and you know, Harold

1679
01:26:08,400 --> 01:26:10,920
Speaker 1: was one of these guys that he really relished the

1680
01:26:11,120 --> 01:26:14,040
Speaker 1: rivalry with the Lakers. I remember he was always the

1681
01:26:14,080 --> 01:26:17,519
Speaker 1: guy at the gate at at the games when you know,

1682
01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:19,719
Speaker 1: when they when they beat the Lakers the two times

1683
01:26:20,360 --> 01:26:22,880
Speaker 1: to start the season, they like he was a guy

1684
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:25,599
Speaker 1: pumping up the crowd and he was like really enjoying

1685
01:26:25,680 --> 01:26:29,680
Speaker 1: it and enjoying waving goodbye to Laker fans things like that. Um.

1686
01:26:30,160 --> 01:26:32,880
Speaker 1: And so I'm sure that there's some bad feelings in

1687
01:26:32,920 --> 01:26:36,439
Speaker 1: the Clipper's locker room about this because this is this,

1688
01:26:36,960 --> 01:26:40,280
Speaker 1: you know, the rivalry aspect of it is a real thing,

1689
01:26:40,439 --> 01:26:44,120
Speaker 1: especially over the past year. Yeah, and uh, you know,

1690
01:26:44,240 --> 01:26:46,840
Speaker 1: adding Harold, he probably comes off the bench. Do you

1691
01:26:47,000 --> 01:26:49,920
Speaker 1: think Dennis Shrewder also comes off the bench because the

1692
01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:53,200
Speaker 1: Lakers are losing two maybe three starters. We don't know

1693
01:26:53,240 --> 01:26:56,320
Speaker 1: about JaVale McGee, but Danny Green obviously shipped out of town.

1694
01:26:56,439 --> 01:26:58,840
Speaker 1: And then you know, Shrewder was the runner up to

1695
01:26:58,880 --> 01:27:01,080
Speaker 1: the sixth ban of the Year. Do you envision him

1696
01:27:01,120 --> 01:27:05,679
Speaker 1: starting with the Lakers are not. I think there's definitely

1697
01:27:05,680 --> 01:27:08,479
Speaker 1: a possibility of that. I'm really interested to see what

1698
01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:12,439
Speaker 1: they do. Um they I mean, that's another that's another

1699
01:27:12,520 --> 01:27:14,920
Speaker 1: person that they added that is an upgrade for them

1700
01:27:14,960 --> 01:27:18,360
Speaker 1: based on players that they are probably going to be losing. UM. So,

1701
01:27:18,640 --> 01:27:20,120
Speaker 1: you know, I could see it going either way, but

1702
01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:23,559
Speaker 1: I think there's definitely a chance that Shooter starts. All right, Tony,

1703
01:27:23,600 --> 01:27:25,960
Speaker 1: And let me ask you your thoughts Lakers still have

1704
01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:28,720
Speaker 1: I saw the number six to eight million left something

1705
01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:31,519
Speaker 1: like that. Do you think it's more likely they keep

1706
01:27:31,600 --> 01:27:35,559
Speaker 1: KCP or he goes elsewhere? And Danny Green, I'm sorry,

1707
01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:39,320
Speaker 1: not Danny Green. Avery Bradley is kept. I think that

1708
01:27:39,520 --> 01:27:42,840
Speaker 1: their priority is KCP. UM. I think he really showed

1709
01:27:42,880 --> 01:27:45,800
Speaker 1: his value, especially, you know, I think the fact that

1710
01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:48,040
Speaker 1: they were able to win without Avery Bradley in the

1711
01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:51,920
Speaker 1: bubble um probably matters to them. So I right now

1712
01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:55,320
Speaker 1: and I anticipate the priority to beat KCP and uh.

1713
01:27:55,439 --> 01:27:58,400
Speaker 1: Any thoughts on what they do at center. You know, again,

1714
01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:01,000
Speaker 1: it doesn't really matter who's darts you. You know this

1715
01:28:01,160 --> 01:28:04,760
Speaker 1: it's more who is in the closing lineup when it matters, right,

1716
01:28:05,280 --> 01:28:08,000
Speaker 1: um And JaVale McGee was never in the closing lineup.

1717
01:28:08,160 --> 01:28:11,400
Speaker 1: Do you think they bring him back? Yeah, I mean

1718
01:28:11,439 --> 01:28:14,360
Speaker 1: I think he would. He's probably an easy person to

1719
01:28:14,479 --> 01:28:16,600
Speaker 1: bring back and to to fit into the role he

1720
01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:19,439
Speaker 1: he opted in, I think, to his uh, to his

1721
01:28:20,040 --> 01:28:22,920
Speaker 1: next year. So I mean, I think that just that

1722
01:28:23,040 --> 01:28:25,320
Speaker 1: probably makes sense and is an easy thing to do.

1723
01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:27,880
Speaker 1: All right, So let me ask about the overall picture

1724
01:28:27,880 --> 01:28:32,120
Speaker 1: of the West. We said the Lakers got better, that's undeniable, Denver,

1725
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:35,400
Speaker 1: I don't know that they got considerably better. They lost

1726
01:28:35,479 --> 01:28:38,280
Speaker 1: Jeremy Grant, they lost one of the Plumbly brothers. I

1727
01:28:38,280 --> 01:28:40,760
Speaker 1: don't even know which one, but they lost one of them. Uh,

1728
01:28:40,960 --> 01:28:46,439
Speaker 1: you know, the Warriors, Clay Thompson goes down. Tiny. Is

1729
01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:49,280
Speaker 1: it too early for Lakers fans to start getting genuinely

1730
01:28:49,360 --> 01:28:53,240
Speaker 1: excited about winning the West again? No, definitely not. I

1731
01:28:53,280 --> 01:28:55,800
Speaker 1: mean I don't. I don't think anyone got better enough

1732
01:28:55,960 --> 01:28:59,960
Speaker 1: to really be threatening to them. Um And and they're

1733
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:03,799
Speaker 1: biggest threat got worse. So you know, I I definitely

1734
01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:06,559
Speaker 1: think that Laker fans should be really excited about where

1735
01:29:06,640 --> 01:29:09,679
Speaker 1: they are right now and their potential for next season.

1736
01:29:09,760 --> 01:29:11,880
Speaker 1: What they should be worried about is what next season

1737
01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:15,840
Speaker 1: will actually look like. But that's another matter. And I'm curious,

1738
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:19,160
Speaker 1: you know, Tanya, I know you covered the NFL, NBA

1739
01:29:19,320 --> 01:29:21,840
Speaker 1: for a while, Like, what do you anticipate, you know,

1740
01:29:21,960 --> 01:29:25,080
Speaker 1: on a personal level, what are your thoughts on the

1741
01:29:25,640 --> 01:29:28,360
Speaker 1: upcoming sports year and what the calendar may look like.

1742
01:29:28,479 --> 01:29:30,960
Speaker 1: Do you think you want to stay covering the NBA?

1743
01:29:31,080 --> 01:29:33,120
Speaker 1: I mean, are there going to be travels? Is there

1744
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:35,519
Speaker 1: going to be zoom? Like? There's a lot of uncertainty

1745
01:29:35,640 --> 01:29:39,080
Speaker 1: right There's so much uncertainty, and it's you know, it's

1746
01:29:39,280 --> 01:29:43,559
Speaker 1: I think the NBA. I wonder how much confidence they're

1747
01:29:43,560 --> 01:29:46,160
Speaker 1: taking from the fact that things went pretty well in

1748
01:29:46,200 --> 01:29:47,920
Speaker 1: the bubble. I mean, you do have to remember that

1749
01:29:48,280 --> 01:29:51,400
Speaker 1: it wasn't they they talked about having zero positive cases,

1750
01:29:51,439 --> 01:29:53,920
Speaker 1: but that was only for people living in the bubble.

1751
01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:56,760
Speaker 1: There were people who were going in and out of

1752
01:29:56,840 --> 01:30:00,439
Speaker 1: the bubble who did test positive. So that's something to

1753
01:30:00,560 --> 01:30:04,879
Speaker 1: remember when you're talking about restarting a season and expecting

1754
01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:07,400
Speaker 1: people to be traveling and to not be in a

1755
01:30:07,479 --> 01:30:11,439
Speaker 1: bubble situation. Um, it's just you you look at football

1756
01:30:11,520 --> 01:30:14,799
Speaker 1: there's positive cases, there are people that are being severely

1757
01:30:14,840 --> 01:30:19,360
Speaker 1: affected by their positive cases. UM, and and pretty much

1758
01:30:19,439 --> 01:30:23,160
Speaker 1: every state is saying indoor basketball is not a great idea,

1759
01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:28,559
Speaker 1: so UM, you know, I just I I'm I'm curious

1760
01:30:28,600 --> 01:30:31,080
Speaker 1: about and and even if they do, if they do,

1761
01:30:31,479 --> 01:30:33,360
Speaker 1: when they do go forward with this, as it seems

1762
01:30:33,400 --> 01:30:36,120
Speaker 1: that they're going to, UM, I don't know that media.

1763
01:30:36,520 --> 01:30:40,200
Speaker 1: The media situation will probably not bring media in close

1764
01:30:40,280 --> 01:30:43,479
Speaker 1: contact with these with these players. But you know, there's

1765
01:30:43,479 --> 01:30:46,720
Speaker 1: a lot of it's it's I don't I. I just

1766
01:30:46,840 --> 01:30:48,760
Speaker 1: have a lot of questions about how safe this will

1767
01:30:48,800 --> 01:30:54,200
Speaker 1: actually be. UM until there's until there's a until there's

1768
01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:57,280
Speaker 1: a plan in place just for the pandemic in general

1769
01:30:57,720 --> 01:31:01,760
Speaker 1: that will make people feel safer about being I'm with you,

1770
01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:05,080
Speaker 1: all right. Tanya Gongoly covers the Lakers. You can follow

1771
01:31:05,120 --> 01:31:07,720
Speaker 1: her on Twitter at Tanya g I n g u

1772
01:31:07,880 --> 01:31:10,360
Speaker 1: l I. Tanya, Hey, have a great Thanksgiving and uh

1773
01:31:10,439 --> 01:31:14,280
Speaker 1: good catch it up. Thanks thanks for having me all right. Uh,

1774
01:31:14,680 --> 01:31:18,519
Speaker 1: you know, there's is a lot of optimism about the Lakers, guys. Gavin,

1775
01:31:18,640 --> 01:31:20,479
Speaker 1: I don't know how to put this in perspective. She

1776
01:31:20,720 --> 01:31:23,840
Speaker 1: she really spelled it out nobody who's a contender in

1777
01:31:23,840 --> 01:31:29,160
Speaker 1: the West got better. Every single team lost somebody of consequence.

1778
01:31:29,439 --> 01:31:32,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess you can't say the MAVs lost it. Well,

1779
01:31:32,120 --> 01:31:37,559
Speaker 1: they've lost Seth Curry, who was really good. Um Man,

1780
01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:40,519
Speaker 1: Lebron is gonna win get to the finals again, isn't he.

1781
01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:43,920
Speaker 1: That's just what he does. I do think you're putting

1782
01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:47,360
Speaker 1: the cart a little bit before the Horzon. Well again,

1783
01:31:47,680 --> 01:31:50,200
Speaker 1: we're going into a normal season now. It's gonna be

1784
01:31:50,240 --> 01:31:54,280
Speaker 1: a little shorter, right, seventy two games, I think, Um, look,

1785
01:31:54,400 --> 01:31:57,679
Speaker 1: Lebron benefited a lot from the layoff, I would think.

1786
01:31:57,760 --> 01:32:00,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. It's it's hard to say,

1787
01:32:00,439 --> 01:32:02,720
Speaker 1: but we're he's not going to have a three month

1788
01:32:02,840 --> 01:32:05,760
Speaker 1: layoff this season, right. And the West is still good.

1789
01:32:05,960 --> 01:32:07,600
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't know what's going to happen with

1790
01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:10,639
Speaker 1: Westbrook and Harden. Yet, you know, the Rockets still could

1791
01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:14,360
Speaker 1: be in play unless all the the players are having

1792
01:32:14,400 --> 01:32:18,240
Speaker 1: a revolt against for Tita for Tata. By the way,

1793
01:32:18,800 --> 01:32:20,200
Speaker 1: I don't know how much we could talk about it

1794
01:32:20,360 --> 01:32:23,880
Speaker 1: on the show, but this whole Rick Bucker thing, Yeah,

1795
01:32:23,920 --> 01:32:26,080
Speaker 1: and I I was talking to Sam about it, and

1796
01:32:26,160 --> 01:32:29,599
Speaker 1: you know, guys, like Bill Russell, they actually went through

1797
01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:32,439
Speaker 1: real like racism that was going. Not that there isn't

1798
01:32:32,680 --> 01:32:36,040
Speaker 1: racism in the in America, um, but I'm just trying

1799
01:32:36,120 --> 01:32:40,599
Speaker 1: to understand revolting against the team you play for that's

1800
01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:44,080
Speaker 1: paying you millions of dollars because they don't support the

1801
01:32:44,280 --> 01:32:47,360
Speaker 1: party that you did. It's it's absolutely ridiculous. What do

1802
01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:49,720
Speaker 1: you think? Well, I mean I was gonna ask, you know, listen,

1803
01:32:49,800 --> 01:32:53,000
Speaker 1: we respect Rick and obviously his reporting, but this idea

1804
01:32:53,080 --> 01:32:56,280
Speaker 1: that all of a sudden the owner is a Trump guy.

1805
01:32:56,800 --> 01:32:59,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to play for him. He's big. Yeah.

1806
01:32:59,479 --> 01:33:02,120
Speaker 1: I don't know it's w until the Vegas Raiders find

1807
01:33:02,160 --> 01:33:06,840
Speaker 1: out about Sandy Alderson. Right, Sorry, that's a that's a

1808
01:33:06,880 --> 01:33:08,760
Speaker 1: great point. I hadn't thought about that, Listen. I do

1809
01:33:09,000 --> 01:33:13,479
Speaker 1: think if you want out, Sheldon add, if you're looking

1810
01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:16,439
Speaker 1: for an excuse, you're gonna say stuff. Right. I think

1811
01:33:16,479 --> 01:33:19,479
Speaker 1: that's what makes the most sense here. And you know,

1812
01:33:19,600 --> 01:33:21,519
Speaker 1: Rick has kind of backed off the comments a little

1813
01:33:21,560 --> 01:33:25,840
Speaker 1: bit in recent days. Yeah, I'm not, bottom line, I'm not.

1814
01:33:25,920 --> 01:33:27,960
Speaker 1: I'm not buying that excuse. I think Harden has seen

1815
01:33:28,000 --> 01:33:31,360
Speaker 1: the writing on the wall, and I don't know who

1816
01:33:31,439 --> 01:33:35,439
Speaker 1: it was but somebody broke it down saying, hey, this uh,

1817
01:33:36,320 --> 01:33:39,519
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, is this really happening for a high stage? Sorry,

1818
01:33:39,600 --> 01:33:41,920
Speaker 1: sorry to interrupt mid stream. Did he is? That was

1819
01:33:41,960 --> 01:33:44,640
Speaker 1: that on the punt? No? That was a past and

1820
01:33:46,120 --> 01:33:48,920
Speaker 1: future quarterback in your New York No, no, no, we

1821
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:51,760
Speaker 1: got Trevor Lawrence. I mean Michael Pennis got sacked on

1822
01:33:51,800 --> 01:33:54,280
Speaker 1: a third time. I did see, and actually Vanderbilts on

1823
01:33:54,360 --> 01:33:59,160
Speaker 1: the board first over Floridas Heisman contenter Kyle Trask, so

1824
01:33:59,360 --> 01:34:03,240
Speaker 1: Ohio State first play from scrimmage goes for like seventy

1825
01:34:03,360 --> 01:34:08,120
Speaker 1: yards against Indiana. Anyways, right, I read it in too

1826
01:34:08,200 --> 01:34:10,000
Speaker 1: Back to the NBA real quick. I did read an

1827
01:34:10,120 --> 01:34:12,720
Speaker 1: interesting piece or I heard it on a podcast or

1828
01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:18,360
Speaker 1: something that if you look at the Houston Rockets and

1829
01:34:19,160 --> 01:34:22,920
Speaker 1: like the makeup of their team, some deals they made

1830
01:34:23,920 --> 01:34:28,439
Speaker 1: during draft week essentially saved them like ten million dollars,

1831
01:34:29,040 --> 01:34:30,560
Speaker 1: And it's like white the owner said he's willing to

1832
01:34:30,600 --> 01:34:34,160
Speaker 1: spend whatever. But here they are not totally cutting corners

1833
01:34:35,520 --> 01:34:37,800
Speaker 1: but saving ten million dollars. Are they gonna go spend

1834
01:34:37,800 --> 01:34:41,519
Speaker 1: that money? I don't know. I got no idea, But

1835
01:34:42,880 --> 01:34:44,720
Speaker 1: what does this say if it if it looks like

1836
01:34:44,800 --> 01:34:48,160
Speaker 1: a duck, and it walks like a tuck duck and

1837
01:34:48,280 --> 01:34:52,280
Speaker 1: talks like a duck. It's probably a duck. Um. Listen,

1838
01:34:52,320 --> 01:34:54,320
Speaker 1: I spelled it out on my Straight Fire podcast. Guys,

1839
01:34:54,720 --> 01:35:00,839
Speaker 1: this owner of the Rockets has been more fining, actually impacted,

1840
01:35:01,479 --> 01:35:04,960
Speaker 1: I think than any other owner during the pandemic in

1841
01:35:05,040 --> 01:35:07,320
Speaker 1: the in the NBA. I don't know about all the sports,

1842
01:35:07,640 --> 01:35:10,680
Speaker 1: but he was heavy in the restaurant business, owned the

1843
01:35:10,760 --> 01:35:15,360
Speaker 1: Golden Nugget and casino in Vegas. Like the restaurant business

1844
01:35:16,000 --> 01:35:19,560
Speaker 1: in the entire industry is just crippled. I don't know

1845
01:35:19,680 --> 01:35:23,240
Speaker 1: how it's going to rebound. I think for Tita, for Tata,

1846
01:35:23,600 --> 01:35:26,360
Speaker 1: whatever his name is, he's in some rough shape here,

1847
01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:29,160
Speaker 1: and I think he's ultimately going to get off Harden

1848
01:35:29,640 --> 01:35:32,360
Speaker 1: get off for us. That sounds bad. I think he's

1849
01:35:32,360 --> 01:35:35,360
Speaker 1: going to get off their contracts. And I'm gonna ask you,

1850
01:35:35,680 --> 01:35:39,240
Speaker 1: why why would you get rid of your best place?

1851
01:35:39,240 --> 01:35:41,599
Speaker 1: If I don't have to go into the luxury tax

1852
01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:44,080
Speaker 1: and I don't have to write a check for twenty million,

1853
01:35:44,160 --> 01:35:46,439
Speaker 1: thirty million at the end of the year, and I'm

1854
01:35:46,479 --> 01:35:48,640
Speaker 1: not winning a title even I have them, Even if

1855
01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:50,400
Speaker 1: I have them, I would just say yeah, let's just

1856
01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:55,400
Speaker 1: start over. Bring on, didn't work, didn't Witty lavert? Future picks?

1857
01:35:55,439 --> 01:35:57,160
Speaker 1: Look at the huge look at the okay see thunder.

1858
01:35:57,960 --> 01:36:00,400
Speaker 1: They went to the first round of the playoffs. They said,

1859
01:36:00,479 --> 01:36:03,080
Speaker 1: we're happy with that. Way to go and Chris Paul goodbye,

1860
01:36:03,600 --> 01:36:09,799
Speaker 1: Gallinari Cia Steven Adams CEO. Is that it? Truder? Goodbye?

1861
01:36:09,880 --> 01:36:11,640
Speaker 1: So four of your top six guys are gone. You're

1862
01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:13,840
Speaker 1: gonna get out of luxury tax. You've got picks for

1863
01:36:13,880 --> 01:36:20,720
Speaker 1: the future, Kevin over under playoff victories in the next

1864
01:36:20,960 --> 01:36:24,000
Speaker 1: in this decade for okay see, I'll set it at

1865
01:36:24,160 --> 01:36:26,680
Speaker 1: one point five. I mean, that's the point is it's

1866
01:36:26,720 --> 01:36:28,960
Speaker 1: a star driven league, and if you have two of

1867
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:32,799
Speaker 1: the bigger stars, especially one of the most important players

1868
01:36:32,840 --> 01:36:34,720
Speaker 1: in the league on your team, and you have him

1869
01:36:34,800 --> 01:36:38,760
Speaker 1: under contract, there's a reason he's a billionaire, okay for

1870
01:36:39,160 --> 01:36:41,559
Speaker 1: you know, I just don't think he's a guy that's

1871
01:36:41,560 --> 01:36:44,200
Speaker 1: gonna allow a disgruntled player, which, by the way, I

1872
01:36:44,360 --> 01:36:46,280
Speaker 1: definitely called this. I think it was over a year

1873
01:36:46,280 --> 01:36:48,800
Speaker 1: ago I said James Harden would be the next next

1874
01:36:48,920 --> 01:36:54,120
Speaker 1: disgruntled star. I mean, so, I don't know, I'd like

1875
01:36:54,280 --> 01:36:57,960
Speaker 1: to see finally one owner stand up to these guys

1876
01:36:58,000 --> 01:37:00,599
Speaker 1: and go, no, you're not just gonna that saw folks

1877
01:37:00,680 --> 01:37:03,200
Speaker 1: and get out of here, just like Anthony Davis. Interesting,

1878
01:37:03,200 --> 01:37:06,160
Speaker 1: all right? Coming up next here on Fox Sports Radio,

1879
01:37:07,360 --> 01:37:09,719
Speaker 1: I heard a lot of hate for the Warriors dynasty.

1880
01:37:10,400 --> 01:37:14,200
Speaker 1: It's over. It was never that good. Um, I don't know,

1881
01:37:14,280 --> 01:37:16,680
Speaker 1: can I defend the Warriors? Is that possible? Am? I

1882
01:37:16,720 --> 01:37:18,519
Speaker 1: gonna try that next and we'll then we'll do NFL

1883
01:37:18,560 --> 01:37:22,280
Speaker 1: picks coming up here on Fox Sports Radio. Back here,

1884
01:37:22,360 --> 01:37:30,000
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio coming up next after me Hartman and

1885
01:37:32,160 --> 01:37:38,760
Speaker 1: LaVar Arrington, Penn State legend. I just uh, I do

1886
01:37:38,880 --> 01:37:42,960
Speaker 1: these Fox gambling video shows. Then I did one with

1887
01:37:43,120 --> 01:37:47,240
Speaker 1: I think one of his former teammates, Clinton Portis. Then

1888
01:37:47,280 --> 01:37:53,200
Speaker 1: were they teammates in Washington? Yeah? Uh yeah earlier Yeah

1889
01:37:53,360 --> 01:37:56,040
Speaker 1: it was he Portas was drafted by Denver, then went

1890
01:37:56,120 --> 01:38:02,479
Speaker 1: to uh Washington. Always a charat, funny guy, talented player. Man.

1891
01:38:02,760 --> 01:38:05,839
Speaker 1: He was on those stacked IVY Hurricanes teams. Oh my gosh,

1892
01:38:06,280 --> 01:38:09,479
Speaker 1: that was when college football was Yeah. I don't know.

1893
01:38:09,600 --> 01:38:11,680
Speaker 1: This past decade college football has been pretty awesome, But

1894
01:38:12,240 --> 01:38:17,559
Speaker 1: early two thousands, college football players are teams were just loaded. Um,

1895
01:38:18,920 --> 01:38:21,920
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm looking up Coastal Carolina app State

1896
01:38:22,040 --> 01:38:25,320
Speaker 1: barn Burner, Ohio State looks like it's about to beat

1897
01:38:25,320 --> 01:38:29,600
Speaker 1: Indiana by like forty. They're just blasting guys out. I

1898
01:38:29,640 --> 01:38:31,679
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys have been watching Ohio Jays

1899
01:38:31,720 --> 01:38:34,400
Speaker 1: just flying around. Probably another five six guys on the

1900
01:38:34,439 --> 01:38:37,960
Speaker 1: defense that are NFL caliber. So it's gonna be a

1901
01:38:38,000 --> 01:38:41,920
Speaker 1: long college football Saturday. But Hartman and Lavary Arrington bring

1902
01:38:42,040 --> 01:38:45,400
Speaker 1: you through it. Um quickly, go back to the NBA.

1903
01:38:45,600 --> 01:38:47,559
Speaker 1: We didn't really talk about Clay Thompson at all. Man

1904
01:38:49,040 --> 01:38:52,519
Speaker 1: just so disappointing one of the real good guys in

1905
01:38:52,640 --> 01:38:56,679
Speaker 1: the NBA, the Splash Brothers, and now Clay, after missing

1906
01:38:57,160 --> 01:39:00,559
Speaker 1: last year due to the a c L won't play

1907
01:39:00,640 --> 01:39:04,840
Speaker 1: due to an achilles And I tried to look and

1908
01:39:05,120 --> 01:39:09,080
Speaker 1: see whether or not there was like a comparable player

1909
01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:15,920
Speaker 1: who's missed that many games back to back seasons, and

1910
01:39:16,479 --> 01:39:19,559
Speaker 1: there's nothing. What about Derrick Rose was that back there?

1911
01:39:19,760 --> 01:39:21,799
Speaker 1: Has missed a lot, but he never missed two straight

1912
01:39:21,920 --> 01:39:26,120
Speaker 1: full John Wall has missed one and a half straight.

1913
01:39:27,240 --> 01:39:31,599
Speaker 1: I have an NFL comp for you about Derwin James.

1914
01:39:32,479 --> 01:39:34,680
Speaker 1: I feel like I haven't seen him since, you know,

1915
01:39:34,880 --> 01:39:37,120
Speaker 1: rookie season. He did play a little last night. I

1916
01:39:37,120 --> 01:39:39,360
Speaker 1: think he played a little a little. Grant Hill is

1917
01:39:39,400 --> 01:39:41,040
Speaker 1: a guy if you look up his numbers. He missed

1918
01:39:41,720 --> 01:39:47,120
Speaker 1: like basically three straight seasons and then missed the entire

1919
01:39:47,240 --> 01:39:52,720
Speaker 1: fourth season, and he was amazing before that. UM. And

1920
01:39:52,840 --> 01:39:55,040
Speaker 1: it's just like, I don't know about how good Clay

1921
01:39:55,120 --> 01:39:57,000
Speaker 1: comes back, so they gotta Kelly you bray, We'll talk

1922
01:39:57,040 --> 01:40:02,519
Speaker 1: to a Warriors guys shortly about Greg Oden. Oh, Greg

1923
01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:07,800
Speaker 1: Oden did not play eleven, did not play, did not play,

1924
01:40:08,560 --> 01:40:16,439
Speaker 1: and then played games five games overall. I still remember

1925
01:40:16,560 --> 01:40:19,400
Speaker 1: him nearly killing Georgetown on like an alley you pass

1926
01:40:19,479 --> 01:40:23,200
Speaker 1: in the final four UM and everybody thought Odin was

1927
01:40:23,240 --> 01:40:27,479
Speaker 1: going to be a beast. It was Odin and Kevin

1928
01:40:27,600 --> 01:40:34,800
Speaker 1: Durant if memory serves, and Bill Walton as well did

1929
01:40:34,880 --> 01:40:37,880
Speaker 1: not play. Thank you, Steve Hartman. Now that is like

1930
01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:42,719
Speaker 1: a different era for medical technology and surgeries and rehab.

1931
01:40:43,600 --> 01:40:47,200
Speaker 1: Um Man, it just gets me depressed at talk. And

1932
01:40:47,320 --> 01:40:49,120
Speaker 1: the sad thing is we didn't even know how he

1933
01:40:49,200 --> 01:40:50,720
Speaker 1: was going to come back after the a c L

1934
01:40:51,240 --> 01:40:53,320
Speaker 1: and then to have an injury that is arguably worse

1935
01:40:53,560 --> 01:40:58,400
Speaker 1: the Achilles. You're almost never the same player overall. Durant's

1936
01:40:58,400 --> 01:41:00,439
Speaker 1: coming off the Achilles. We'll see how he does. Yeah,

1937
01:41:00,479 --> 01:41:03,040
Speaker 1: and that's the other thing everyone's just chalked it up to, Oh,

1938
01:41:03,160 --> 01:41:05,040
Speaker 1: you know, look at this package you can put together

1939
01:41:05,080 --> 01:41:07,679
Speaker 1: with the nets. Well, what do we know that Katie

1940
01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:10,519
Speaker 1: is going to be the same player he was. Just

1941
01:41:11,560 --> 01:41:14,040
Speaker 1: he did look amazing in a few minutes we saw

1942
01:41:14,439 --> 01:41:18,920
Speaker 1: in the finals. Yeah, but that was yeah, all right,

1943
01:41:18,960 --> 01:41:22,479
Speaker 1: back to college football briefly, justin fields. Just as I'm

1944
01:41:22,479 --> 01:41:25,000
Speaker 1: saying they're gonna win by a bad pick now, it

1945
01:41:25,120 --> 01:41:28,400
Speaker 1: looked like the receiver broke off throughout early um or

1946
01:41:28,479 --> 01:41:31,760
Speaker 1: went the wrong way. Um So, Indiana takes over in

1947
01:41:31,840 --> 01:41:35,880
Speaker 1: Ohio State territory. Ohio State this week announced that they

1948
01:41:36,000 --> 01:41:41,040
Speaker 1: landed the number one prospect in the two class, quarterback,

1949
01:41:41,360 --> 01:41:45,639
Speaker 1: Quinn Yours. H So there's going to be the name

1950
01:41:45,920 --> 01:41:50,639
Speaker 1: looking forward decommitted from Texas. Mm hmm. It's weird. College

1951
01:41:50,640 --> 01:41:53,160
Speaker 1: football is such a hierarchy that just the best players

1952
01:41:53,280 --> 01:41:56,320
Speaker 1: go to the best programs, and it seems like Ohio

1953
01:41:56,400 --> 01:41:58,439
Speaker 1: State every year. I think it's the third straight that

1954
01:41:58,560 --> 01:42:01,360
Speaker 1: they've had the number one quarter back. Yeah, Clemson got that.

1955
01:42:01,439 --> 01:42:03,800
Speaker 1: You got that kid behind Trevor Lawrence d J. I'm

1956
01:42:03,800 --> 01:42:07,080

Speaker 1: Guy wide open over the middle for the first down.

1961
01:42:24,800 --> 01:42:29,479
Speaker 1: Drops it Frve Fogel. Anytime I hear Fogel, I instantly

1962
01:42:29,520 --> 01:42:32,120
Speaker 1: think of super bad. One thing that I'm very excited

1963
01:42:32,160 --> 01:42:35,719
Speaker 1: for this NBA season. Um, I've always been a doubter

1964
01:42:35,920 --> 01:42:38,960
Speaker 1: of Steve Kerr because he's had a plethora of talent

1965
01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:41,639
Speaker 1: on his team and he said literally five All stars

1966
01:42:41,680 --> 01:42:44,000
Speaker 1: starting at one point for his team. Well, now he

1967
01:42:44,080 --> 01:42:45,439
Speaker 1: has his work cut out for him. We're going to

1968
01:42:45,479 --> 01:42:47,240
Speaker 1: find out how good of a coach he really is. Yeah,

1969
01:42:47,240 --> 01:42:49,360
Speaker 1: I should call him. I got back problems today, and

1970
01:42:49,840 --> 01:42:51,840
Speaker 1: he had some major back It sounds like you got some,

1971
01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:54,719
Speaker 1: you know, flegm problems as well. You know, I can't

1972
01:42:54,720 --> 01:42:59,840
Speaker 1: shake this dark cough. I tested don't have it. It's fine, Um,

1973
01:43:00,320 --> 01:43:02,280
Speaker 1: hold on, I just hate the coughing. And somebody on

1974
01:43:02,400 --> 01:43:05,760
Speaker 1: social media actually said, what's with the cough, dude? And

1975
01:43:07,760 --> 01:43:10,640
Speaker 1: I don't. I just I guess I should reach for

1976
01:43:10,680 --> 01:43:12,719
Speaker 1: the cough button. Gavit my bad. Yeah, the cough button

1977
01:43:12,760 --> 01:43:15,120

2013
01:45:01,760 --> 01:45:05,400

2032
01:46:11,320 --> 01:46:16,120
Speaker 1: Tarantia just reporting that free agent guard DJ Augustine sign

2033
01:46:16,160 --> 01:46:18,680
Speaker 1: of a three year, twenty one million dollar deal with

2034
01:46:19,280 --> 01:46:23,439
Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Bucks, and the free agent forward Bobby Portis

2035
01:46:23,520 --> 01:46:27,479
Speaker 1: has also agreed to a deal with Milwaukee. Jason back

2036
01:46:27,520 --> 01:46:33,160
Speaker 1: to you, Thank you, Isaac. Interesting stuff on the NBA front. Um, huh,

2037
01:46:34,200 --> 01:46:36,400
Speaker 1: dj Augustine was a guy I thought would be heading

2038
01:46:36,400 --> 01:46:39,479
Speaker 1: to the Lakers. Um he goes to Milwaukee. I guess

2039
01:46:39,520 --> 01:46:43,280
Speaker 1: two rits for l A's blood. Can't get everybody. Um,

2040
01:46:44,080 --> 01:46:46,800
Speaker 1: Augustin probably replaces what George Hill coming off the bench,

2041
01:46:48,200 --> 01:46:52,479
Speaker 1: assuming uh they start Holiday. Well, they lost bledsoe end Hill.

2042
01:46:53,120 --> 01:46:58,960
Speaker 1: So I guess there's a chance Augustine starts Drew Holiday. Yeah.

2043
01:46:59,000 --> 01:47:02,840
Speaker 1: Oh oh, okay, let's go to Isaac again. Just just

2044
01:47:03,200 --> 01:47:05,320
Speaker 1: just just a quick note. This is one college football

2045
01:47:05,360 --> 01:47:08,759
Speaker 1: note that just came down seconds ago. Brett McMurphy reporting

2046
01:47:08,920 --> 01:47:12,719
Speaker 1: that the East Carolina Temple game is being delayed because

2047
01:47:12,800 --> 01:47:17,599
Speaker 1: a Temple player had a girlfriend who just tested positive.

2048
01:47:17,680 --> 01:47:21,360
Speaker 1: So the player was just taken back to campus to

2049
01:47:21,600 --> 01:47:25,599
Speaker 1: receive a test. If he winds up testing positive, there's

2050
01:47:25,600 --> 01:47:27,800
Speaker 1: a chance that that game would not be played. So

2051
01:47:28,400 --> 01:47:32,599
Speaker 1: that's also just getting a tweet from Shaan's Gerania, Fred

2052
01:47:32,840 --> 01:47:36,040
Speaker 1: van Vleet agreeing to a four year, eighty five million

2053
01:47:36,120 --> 01:47:38,880
Speaker 1: dollar deal to resign with the Toronto Rapps. It is

2054
01:47:38,920 --> 01:47:42,120
Speaker 1: literally coming down as we speak, back to good stuff. Uh,

2055
01:47:42,680 --> 01:47:50,000
Speaker 1: player's girlfriend test positive for COVID, may cancel game? Is

2056
01:47:50,040 --> 01:47:52,680
Speaker 1: that nutshell? Or what I mean? Do you know what

2057
01:47:52,840 --> 01:47:56,080
Speaker 1: the impact is? Let's just think about this real quick

2058
01:47:57,520 --> 01:47:59,759
Speaker 1: college football game? What was it? He said, Isaac Temple

2059
01:47:59,840 --> 01:48:03,920
Speaker 1: for who e SEU Carolina? Al Right, so I don't

2060
01:48:03,960 --> 01:48:05,960
Speaker 1: know that was probably gonna be on TV somewhere, right,

2061
01:48:06,200 --> 01:48:09,880
Speaker 1: he was going to be on an ESPN, Okay, ESPN Plus,

2062
01:48:09,920 --> 01:48:15,479
Speaker 1: not as juicy um, but presumably Jadium was going to

2063
01:48:15,600 --> 01:48:18,200
Speaker 1: have people, well, not a Temple, but if it was

2064
01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:23,280
Speaker 1: an ECU maybe and you got what at least guys

2065
01:48:23,360 --> 01:48:27,800
Speaker 1: on each team, everybody rare and to go. And now

2066
01:48:27,840 --> 01:48:35,160
Speaker 1: because one player's girlfriend test positive, everything wiped out. That's

2067
01:48:35,200 --> 01:48:38,760
Speaker 1: a that's a tough stomach. That's tough to stomach, is

2068
01:48:38,800 --> 01:48:44,479
Speaker 1: it not? I actually had East Carolina and and part

2069
01:48:44,520 --> 01:48:46,240
Speaker 1: of it was tied to the Seahawks the other night.

2070
01:48:46,360 --> 01:48:49,040
Speaker 1: I love the degeneracy, but what I don't even know

2071
01:48:49,120 --> 01:48:51,760
Speaker 1: how that works. I guess maybe it'll just factor in

2072
01:48:51,800 --> 01:48:57,760
Speaker 1: the Seahawks and then Cincinnati, which are the other two legs. Right, unbelievable. Yeah,

2073
01:48:57,840 --> 01:49:00,639
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't think it kills the part like, hey, listen,

2074
01:49:00,720 --> 01:49:02,920
Speaker 1: I know I I talked about not going on social

2075
01:49:02,960 --> 01:49:05,760
Speaker 1: media and how toxic it is. I just I went

2076
01:49:05,880 --> 01:49:08,679
Speaker 1: on it real quick while Isaac was given those updates?

2077
01:49:08,680 --> 01:49:11,960
Speaker 1: Are you ready for this? Are you ready? Gavin David

2078
01:49:12,000 --> 01:49:15,960
Speaker 1: hasn't seen this, He's gonna love it? Somebody named Authentic Alan?

2079
01:49:16,720 --> 01:49:19,439
Speaker 1: Is there anything better than listening to two white guys

2080
01:49:19,760 --> 01:49:22,599
Speaker 1: tell black athletes why they shouldn't be mad at their

2081
01:49:22,600 --> 01:49:26,120
Speaker 1: owner who supports a blatant racist in Donald Trump. Maybe

2082
01:49:26,280 --> 01:49:30,439
Speaker 1: you two white boys don't know it, but black people

2083
01:49:30,479 --> 01:49:36,800
Speaker 1: would consider Donald Trump a racist. We maga, don't hass tag,

2084
01:49:37,439 --> 01:49:40,280
Speaker 1: we magot don't. I guess authentic Allen has no idea

2085
01:49:40,320 --> 01:49:42,600
Speaker 1: who I am. Yeah, he's never seen thinks I'm a

2086
01:49:42,640 --> 01:49:48,200
Speaker 1: white guy, and he thinks we're supporting uh chillman for

2087
01:49:48,320 --> 01:49:51,680
Speaker 1: Tita for Tata, who whatever his damn name is. We

2088
01:49:51,720 --> 01:49:54,639
Speaker 1: don't know anything about this guy. But the real fact,

2089
01:49:54,800 --> 01:49:58,800
Speaker 1: Authentic Allen, is that for Tita for Tata has been

2090
01:49:58,840 --> 01:50:03,400
Speaker 1: the owner for some time. He's been Yes, there's if

2091
01:50:03,520 --> 01:50:06,920
Speaker 1: you Trump has been in office since if this was

2092
01:50:07,000 --> 01:50:10,880
Speaker 1: the real reason Herded wanted out. It's a little convenient

2093
01:50:10,960 --> 01:50:13,120
Speaker 1: he's picking it now. I'm not saying he shouldn't have

2094
01:50:13,120 --> 01:50:17,240
Speaker 1: hated the guy, right, that's up to Harden. But to

2095
01:50:17,439 --> 01:50:20,360
Speaker 1: come up with this down the road, just as things

2096
01:50:20,400 --> 01:50:22,840
Speaker 1: are falling apart around you, Yeah, I want to get out.

2097
01:50:22,920 --> 01:50:26,519
Speaker 1: Let me, let me help. I don't know. I don't

2098
01:50:26,520 --> 01:50:28,920
Speaker 1: know your history with the females. When you go through

2099
01:50:28,960 --> 01:50:31,800
Speaker 1: a breakup, a lot of times you start picking at

2100
01:50:31,840 --> 01:50:34,320
Speaker 1: everything you go. You know what? I also don't like

2101
01:50:34,439 --> 01:50:37,960
Speaker 1: you're cooking Like there's just there's things anywhere. Okay, this

2102
01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:40,120
Speaker 1: could easily just be one of those, like, oh, something

2103
01:50:40,160 --> 01:50:43,360
Speaker 1: he didn't like about the franchise, he's going to throw

2104
01:50:43,439 --> 01:50:46,280
Speaker 1: that in. Is that the leading reason he wants out?

2105
01:50:46,360 --> 01:50:50,240
Speaker 1: Probably not now that Now that leads to an interesting question. Um,

2106
01:50:50,680 --> 01:50:56,719
Speaker 1: let's say that, um, a new guy buys the Lakers

2107
01:50:57,240 --> 01:50:59,439
Speaker 1: right from it's not happening, but let's just make it up,

2108
01:51:00,040 --> 01:51:03,120
Speaker 1: ying the Lakers from Genie Buss and the Bus family. Okay,

2109
01:51:04,360 --> 01:51:09,760
Speaker 1: and this new owner is a big Trump guy. Does

2110
01:51:09,880 --> 01:51:13,400
Speaker 1: Lebron put all that aside and play or does he

2111
01:51:13,520 --> 01:51:17,640
Speaker 1: instantly say I'm not playing for this team? Audios now,

2112
01:51:17,760 --> 01:51:20,160
Speaker 1: I'm not going to have any objection whatever he decides.

2113
01:51:21,320 --> 01:51:23,400
Speaker 1: I just the one thing I want is I would

2114
01:51:23,439 --> 01:51:27,200
Speaker 1: appreciate consistency. And again, whatever the consistency is fine. If

2115
01:51:27,200 --> 01:51:29,679
Speaker 1: you're gonna be a consistent jerk, be a consistent jerk.

2116
01:51:29,720 --> 01:51:31,640
Speaker 1: That's why. Don't be cool to me and then go

2117
01:51:31,760 --> 01:51:34,960
Speaker 1: talk smack behind my back and then to my face again, Hey,

2118
01:51:35,000 --> 01:51:37,000
Speaker 1: how are you, buddy? Don't do that. I think they

2119
01:51:37,080 --> 01:51:39,160
Speaker 1: need to understand that a lot of the fans that

2120
01:51:39,320 --> 01:51:41,559
Speaker 1: are paying for tickets to see them in a normal

2121
01:51:41,640 --> 01:51:46,519
Speaker 1: season also don't agree with them politically. Lebron's home state

2122
01:51:46,880 --> 01:51:50,519
Speaker 1: has voted for Trump twice. Ohio. Yeah, there's no state

2123
01:51:50,640 --> 01:51:54,040
Speaker 1: that loves Lebron more than Ohio. I don't think Ohio.

2124
01:51:54,120 --> 01:51:57,320
Speaker 1: I don't think Lebron thinks about that. I think he

2125
01:51:57,439 --> 01:51:59,840
Speaker 1: lives in his own little bubble and everyone thinks like him.

2126
01:52:00,000 --> 01:52:02,519
Speaker 1: And this comes back to the whole Uh, the NBA

2127
01:52:02,640 --> 01:52:06,320
Speaker 1: players with Hong Kong and China, and everybody's like NBA China,

2128
01:52:06,560 --> 01:52:10,000
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Okay, fine, I get it. I understand that.

2129
01:52:10,520 --> 01:52:16,120
Speaker 1: How many other US companies operate in China? Answer? Almost

2130
01:52:16,240 --> 01:52:19,479
Speaker 1: all the big ones. Okay, if you're gonna crush the

2131
01:52:19,640 --> 01:52:21,640
Speaker 1: NBA as everybody wants to. That's fine. I get that.

2132
01:52:22,800 --> 01:52:24,880
Speaker 1: And you're gonna do that from your iPhone? Where was

2133
01:52:24,920 --> 01:52:27,320
Speaker 1: that iPhone made? What kind of jeans are you wearing?

2134
01:52:27,760 --> 01:52:29,840
Speaker 1: What restaurants are you going to? What did you eat

2135
01:52:29,880 --> 01:52:33,040
Speaker 1: for dinner? Who's delivering you food? Like, there's so you

2136
01:52:33,120 --> 01:52:36,200
Speaker 1: could do this on down the road forever, from your

2137
01:52:36,240 --> 01:52:40,880
Speaker 1: computer to your phone to whatever you whatever objects you

2138
01:52:41,000 --> 01:52:43,080
Speaker 1: have in your house, from a table to a sofa.

2139
01:52:43,800 --> 01:52:48,160
Speaker 1: Just be consistent. I That's all I ask for, And

2140
01:52:48,280 --> 01:52:50,400
Speaker 1: I really it really annoyed me when people just bashed

2141
01:52:50,439 --> 01:52:52,519
Speaker 1: the NBA. Oh, by the way, did you see the

2142
01:52:52,600 --> 01:52:54,800
Speaker 1: Master's ratings? I know they were going up against the

2143
01:52:54,880 --> 01:52:58,760
Speaker 1: NFL Sunday. How were they on Friday Saturday? Oh? Not good? Okay,

2144

Speaker 1: So hockey rate in the tank, like every ratings are

2145
01:53:02,439 --> 01:53:07,439
Speaker 1: in the tank except for Emily and Paris, uh and scam.

2146
01:53:07,560 --> 01:53:11,080
Speaker 1: But I gotta remember that. Um yeah, okay, now now

01:53:11,120 --> 01:53:13,479
Speaker 1: you got me worked up? Authentic Allen, I'm all, I'm

2148
01:53:13,479 --> 01:53:17,240

2149
01:53:17,360 --> 01:53:20,080
Speaker 1: with He's tight with Clay Thompson's dad. And Hartman is

2150
01:53:21,160 --> 01:53:23,680
Speaker 1: he's solemn over the news and I'm sad too, man,

2151
01:53:23,800 --> 01:53:27,000
Speaker 1: it's depressing. Clay was out here a lot and um.

2152
01:53:27,800 --> 01:53:31,679
Speaker 1: According to Hartmann, Katino Mobile, who was doing a show

2153
01:53:31,760 --> 01:53:34,439
Speaker 1: this summer, was running pick up basketball. Remember, I would

2154
01:53:34,439 --> 01:53:37,519
Speaker 1: lobby Mobili, I would finish my show. Mobile would come in.

2155
01:53:37,600 --> 01:53:39,479
Speaker 1: I'll be like, Yo, what up? Can I get in

2156

2157
01:53:42,479 --> 01:53:45,280
Speaker 1: and say, you can't really hang what is it? What

2158
01:53:45,400 --> 01:53:48,040
Speaker 1: is it? If you can't hang with the big dogs,

2159
01:53:48,160 --> 01:53:51,240
Speaker 1: you better stay on the porch. I would be willing

2160
01:53:51,280 --> 01:53:52,400
Speaker 1: to get off the porch and try to hang with

2161
01:53:52,479 --> 01:53:55,719
Speaker 1: the big dogs. Clay was running with Katino in those games,

2162
01:53:56,400 --> 01:53:59,040
Speaker 1: and apparently he was, according to Hartman, looking awesome and

2163
01:53:59,200 --> 01:54:06,080
Speaker 1: ready to come back. Can you just damn it just sucks? Sucks? Um,

Speaker 1: Back here on Fox Sports Radio, It's me Jason mcintur.

2170
01:54:35,320 --> 01:54:40,800
Speaker 1: Final segment was that another Ohio State turnover. Huh uh

01:54:41,160 --> 01:54:45,200
Speaker 1: buck guys give it back to Indiana. Still only up seven, nothing,

2172
01:54:46,000 --> 01:54:49,040
Speaker 1: but they're gonna pull away. Don't worry. Florida in a

2173
01:54:49,080 --> 01:54:53,440
Speaker 1: bit of a dog fight with Vandy early Commodore's driving

2174
01:54:53,600 --> 01:54:56,640
Speaker 1: already up three. Here is our Geico play of the day,

2175
01:54:57,400 --> 01:54:59,920
Speaker 1: Fields with a staff, Fields looking to toss field fold

2176
01:55:00,040 --> 01:55:02,280
Speaker 1: went into the end zone, caught for a touchdown. Karentt

2177
01:55:02,320 --> 01:55:05,120
Speaker 1: Wilson on a ten yard catch, Fields hit human tried

2178
01:55:05,240 --> 01:55:08,120
Speaker 1: coming off the right flank, and in two plays Ohire

01:55:08,200 --> 01:55:11,400
Speaker 1: State just taking a six meddling lead. Thank you, Paul Keres,

2180
01:55:11,440 --> 01:55:17,520
Speaker 1: oh Le Keels. Sorry, I am g college, Ohio State, Indiana,

2181
01:55:18,240 --> 01:55:21,040
Speaker 1: get go play the day. Fun stuff in that game.

2182
01:55:21,120 --> 01:55:23,800
Speaker 1: I think I've seen two turnovers of failed fourth down.

2183
01:55:24,320 --> 01:55:27,640
Speaker 1: We're in the first quarter. There's no like remember the

2184
01:55:27,680 --> 01:55:29,360
Speaker 1: big ten used to be three yards in a cloud

2185
01:55:29,400 --> 01:55:32,360
Speaker 1: of dust, Like that's not what it is that maybe

2186
01:55:32,400 --> 01:55:35,960
Speaker 1: Michigan State still that way. Um. I want to play

2187
01:55:36,000 --> 01:55:39,160
Speaker 1: you some audio from Joey Bosa, who will reach this week.

2188
01:55:39,720 --> 01:55:43,160
Speaker 1: Tease this earlier. I've said this five times. I'm not

2189
01:55:43,240 --> 01:55:45,840
Speaker 1: asking you to to do a cart wheel and then

2190
01:55:45,920 --> 01:55:48,440
Speaker 1: back flip and pick it off between your legs with

2191
01:55:48,520 --> 01:55:51,840
Speaker 1: one arm and then moonwalk into the end zone or something.

2192
01:55:52,760 --> 01:55:55,480
Speaker 1: If the ball is thrown at you, you gotta make plays.

2193
01:55:55,600 --> 01:55:58,160
Speaker 1: And I'm not pointing fingers, but if you want to

2194
01:55:58,200 --> 01:55:59,800
Speaker 1: win and you want to be a great team, you

2195
01:56:00,000 --> 01:56:02,240
Speaker 1: gotta you gotta call it out and you gotta tell

2196
01:56:02,280 --> 01:56:04,480
Speaker 1: it how it is. I always want to say it

2197
01:56:04,600 --> 01:56:07,120
Speaker 1: starts with me, because I'm as big of a culprit

2198
01:56:07,160 --> 01:56:10,400
Speaker 1: as anybody. But when when balls are thrown at you

2199
01:56:11,000 --> 01:56:13,880
Speaker 1: can't make silly mistakes. You gotta you just have to

2200
01:56:14,080 --> 01:56:17,480
Speaker 1: capitalize on the opportunities. What is he What is he

2201
01:56:17,520 --> 01:56:19,480
Speaker 1: talking about? So what he's talking about there? If you

2202
01:56:19,920 --> 01:56:24,560
Speaker 1: in the Miami Charger game last week, um, it was

2203
01:56:24,680 --> 01:56:28,200
Speaker 1: Kenneth Kenneth Murray, a rookie played for Oklahoma, had a

2204
01:56:28,800 --> 01:56:32,080
Speaker 1: gimme interception. I mean it was unreal that he didn't

2205
01:56:32,120 --> 01:56:34,520
Speaker 1: get his hands on it and it actually ended up

2206
01:56:34,560 --> 01:56:39,640
Speaker 1: being a completed pass to Miami Dolphins right through the linebacker. Yeah.

2207
01:56:39,760 --> 01:56:42,640
Speaker 1: And the point is, with Bosa being on the sidelines

2208
01:56:42,680 --> 01:56:44,360
Speaker 1: for a couple of weeks, he's had to watch this

2209
01:56:44,560 --> 01:56:49,040
Speaker 1: the defense just allowing stupid mistakes to happen. So he's back,

2210
01:56:49,120 --> 01:56:51,120
Speaker 1: and he's kind of, look, they need a leader that

2211
01:56:51,280 --> 01:56:53,400
Speaker 1: Derwin James is going to be the vocal leader next

2212
01:56:53,480 --> 01:56:57,200
Speaker 1: year when when he's back. But but Joey Bosa, He's like, Okay, guys,

2213
01:56:57,240 --> 01:56:58,800
Speaker 1: we've got to get it together. We're a better team

2214
01:56:58,800 --> 01:57:00,920
Speaker 1: than this. Do you own a rent your home? Sure

2215
01:57:01,000 --> 01:57:03,480
Speaker 1: you do. Fortunately, Geico makes it easy to bundle your

2216
01:57:03,480 --> 01:57:06,000
Speaker 1: homework car insurance. It's a good thing too, because having

2217
01:57:06,040 --> 01:57:07,880
Speaker 1: a home is hard work. Go to Geico dot com,

2218
01:57:07,960 --> 01:57:10,240
Speaker 1: get a quote. See how much you could save Geico

2219
01:57:10,360 --> 01:57:15,000
Speaker 1: dot com. Easy, boy, that's that's bleak. If you're Bosa right, well.

2220
01:57:15,080 --> 01:57:18,360
Speaker 1: I also think there's an element of like these guys,

2221
01:57:18,760 --> 01:57:21,640
Speaker 1: like the Chargers social media accounts are always tweeting out

2222
01:57:21,680 --> 01:57:24,560
Speaker 1: these cool photos of them in their uniforms before the game.

2223
01:57:24,680 --> 01:57:28,040
Speaker 1: It's they're just like embarrassing that they have this nickname

2224
01:57:28,480 --> 01:57:32,200
Speaker 1: the jack boys. That's their secondary. They don't jack anything.

2225
01:57:32,400 --> 01:57:35,720
Speaker 1: They don't they're not intercepting, they're not turning the ball over.

2226
01:57:36,120 --> 01:57:39,520
Speaker 1: It'd be like Miami not having a turnover all season

2227
01:57:39,760 --> 01:57:42,040
Speaker 1: and they're having the turnover chain. It's just like, guys,

2228
01:57:42,600 --> 01:57:47,160
Speaker 1: do your job. That's why Belichick is the goat Belichick

2229
01:57:47,200 --> 01:57:49,800
Speaker 1: indeed the goat. I had a funny this is not

2230
01:57:49,920 --> 01:57:54,040
Speaker 1: really that sports as uh we see Scott Frost corn

2231
01:57:54,120 --> 01:58:00,080
Speaker 1: Huskers fall down to Illinois on a nice touchdown catch. H.

2232
01:58:01,000 --> 01:58:05,280
Speaker 1: I had my brother text me a throwback Thursday from

2233
01:58:05,360 --> 01:58:07,920
Speaker 1: I think the first time that this radio show had

2234
01:58:07,920 --> 01:58:10,640
Speaker 1: appeared on like if you have serious it says like

2235
01:58:10,720 --> 01:58:14,680
Speaker 1: the Jason mcintarre Show or whatever, um. And it was

2236
01:58:14,760 --> 01:58:19,400
Speaker 1: like in and it hit me that I had been

2237
01:58:19,520 --> 01:58:23,720
Speaker 1: doing this show now for five years. And I had

2238
01:58:23,800 --> 01:58:26,839
Speaker 1: explained to him that, yeah, like damn, I didn't realize

2239
01:58:26,880 --> 01:58:31,120
Speaker 1: I've been waking up Saturdays at six am and doing

2240
01:58:31,400 --> 01:58:34,560
Speaker 1: a radio show for five years on Saturdays. And it's

2241
01:58:34,640 --> 01:58:37,280
Speaker 1: like and he was stunned because he has, you know,

2242
01:58:37,320 --> 01:58:42,320
Speaker 1: a regular job, um, pharmaceutical sales, thriving in it and

2243
01:58:42,480 --> 01:58:46,400
Speaker 1: it he doesn't have to work Saturdays ever. And I

2244
01:58:46,480 --> 01:58:50,040
Speaker 1: thought about that was like, damn, five years every Saturday

2245
01:58:50,880 --> 01:58:54,600
Speaker 1: and I cannot. I'm not trying to be like, oh,

2246
01:58:54,680 --> 01:58:57,440
Speaker 1: I work all days, because you know, I'm hard worker,

2247
01:58:57,520 --> 01:59:00,680
Speaker 1: but there is something And was talking about it with

2248
01:59:00,720 --> 01:59:04,200
Speaker 1: Hartman during the break about like you gotta work hard,

2249
01:59:04,440 --> 01:59:07,960
Speaker 1: like that's the only way you can that's life. And

2250
01:59:08,240 --> 01:59:11,640
Speaker 1: it is interesting because we have friends who are from

2251
01:59:12,440 --> 01:59:15,600
Speaker 1: London when they've been here, I don't know, forty years

2252
01:59:16,640 --> 01:59:18,560
Speaker 1: and they see me working hard and I have to,

2253
01:59:18,880 --> 01:59:21,040
Speaker 1: you know, listen, I have to miss a bunch of

2254
01:59:21,960 --> 01:59:25,480
Speaker 1: gatherings with our friends. You know, the wife will take

2255
01:59:25,480 --> 01:59:27,320
Speaker 1: the kids and I'm the one dad who's not there

2256
01:59:27,400 --> 01:59:31,120
Speaker 1: because of a radio show, or I fill in for

2257
01:59:31,560 --> 01:59:34,520
Speaker 1: on the odd couple, or I gotta go home early

2258
01:59:34,600 --> 01:59:37,920
Speaker 1: because I gotta do the Dan Patrick show at wake

2259
01:59:38,000 --> 01:59:42,840
Speaker 1: Up at you know, five am or whatever. And I

2260
01:59:42,960 --> 01:59:45,080
Speaker 1: talked to these guys from London and they're like, man,

2261
01:59:47,280 --> 01:59:49,240
Speaker 1: you work a lot. I was like, I love it

2262
01:59:49,640 --> 01:59:51,920
Speaker 1: talking about sports and it reminds me Gavin of Emily

2263
01:59:52,000 --> 01:59:55,560
Speaker 1: in Paris. I can't believe I'm referencing there where she's

2264
01:59:55,560 --> 01:59:57,560
Speaker 1: sitting down talking to one of these frenchmen and the

2265
01:59:57,640 --> 02:00:05,240
Speaker 1: French guys like you Americans live to work, we live

2266
02:00:05,840 --> 02:00:09,520
Speaker 1: and work, or whatever the exact saying was. And I'm like, well,

2267
02:00:09,640 --> 02:00:11,560
Speaker 1: I've had a job I love. I don't think it's

2268
02:00:11,600 --> 02:00:14,080
Speaker 1: really hard work to have to watch Thursday night football,

2269
02:00:14,520 --> 02:00:20,120
Speaker 1: come up with something witty, insightful and thought provoking and

2270
02:00:20,280 --> 02:00:23,320
Speaker 1: talk about it like, you know, I do the podcast now,

2271
02:00:23,400 --> 02:00:26,120
Speaker 1: so again, you gotta watch sports at night, gotta wake

2272
02:00:26,200 --> 02:00:30,600
Speaker 1: up early, and it's work. And then I think about it,

2273
02:00:30,640 --> 02:00:35,240
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm not this is sports. Like really my

2274
02:00:35,360 --> 02:00:37,440
Speaker 1: Friday night, a lot of people out Friday night party

2275
02:00:37,480 --> 02:00:39,760
Speaker 1: and I'm like getting a radio show together. Sometimes I'll

2276
02:00:39,800 --> 02:00:44,080
Speaker 1: go out and I'm I just I like it, and

2277
02:00:45,400 --> 02:00:48,920
Speaker 1: I do want to enjoy a nice retirement where I'm

2278
02:00:48,920 --> 02:00:52,160
Speaker 1: not working till I'm like, and how do you do that?

2279
02:00:52,240 --> 02:00:54,000
Speaker 1: You work your butt off now when you have the energy,

2280
02:00:55,200 --> 02:00:58,000
Speaker 1: and I don't mind doing for jobs. I'm a lot

2281
02:00:58,080 --> 02:01:01,280
Speaker 1: of it is sports on from home, but like, yeah,

2282
02:01:01,400 --> 02:01:05,200
Speaker 1: that to me, I love it. I don't know about

2283
02:01:05,240 --> 02:01:07,440
Speaker 1: you guys, understand, Like I think you and a lot

2284
02:01:07,480 --> 02:01:11,400
Speaker 1: of people here um have the mentality of like, whatever

2285
02:01:11,400 --> 02:01:13,480
Speaker 1: you're gonna do, you're gonna put a percent effort in.

2286
02:01:13,520 --> 02:01:15,920
Speaker 1: I think you did that with your website as well. UM,

2287
02:01:16,320 --> 02:01:18,600
Speaker 1: So when you do it like that, it doesn't feel

2288
02:01:18,680 --> 02:01:22,520
Speaker 1: like this crazy grind that you're you know, missing out

2289
02:01:22,560 --> 02:01:25,280
Speaker 1: on And you know, I don't moment Oh, I've got

2290
02:01:25,360 --> 02:01:28,000
Speaker 1: to go to work because we're talking about exacts now.

2291
02:01:28,640 --> 02:01:31,800
Speaker 1: I mean myself, I work on Sundays here. Yeah, we

2292
02:01:31,920 --> 02:01:35,520
Speaker 1: do the Red Zone radio right recovering every game. I

2293
02:01:35,840 --> 02:01:39,320
Speaker 1: love it because I would be watching these games anyway,

2294
02:01:39,600 --> 02:01:41,280
Speaker 1: so I might as well get paid to be on

2295
02:01:41,320 --> 02:01:44,080
Speaker 1: the radio to do it. Yeah, A hundred thousand percent

2296
02:01:44,200 --> 02:01:46,440
Speaker 1: with you. And again like we are fortunate that we

2297
02:01:46,480 --> 02:01:49,200
Speaker 1: got in this field, but we're not working on Wall

2298
02:01:49,240 --> 02:01:53,840
Speaker 1: Street slaving away twelve hours a day making millions and

2299
02:01:53,920 --> 02:01:56,560
Speaker 1: millions of dollars. That's a different story. Those guys work

2300
02:01:56,600 --> 02:01:59,680
Speaker 1: hard as well. Personally, I would I don't know about you, guys,

2301
02:01:59,720 --> 02:02:02,240
Speaker 1: gat it and say I'm not steering my kids to

2302
02:02:02,280 --> 02:02:04,840
Speaker 1: sports media. Uh, you know, twenty years from now, I

2303
02:02:04,880 --> 02:02:06,840
Speaker 1: don't know what the heck this industry is gonna look

2304
02:02:06,840 --> 02:02:10,040
Speaker 1: like shocks five years from now, I have no idea. Um,

2305
02:02:10,720 --> 02:02:12,960
Speaker 1: I just I think the work ethic matters. I don't know,

2306
02:02:15,000 --> 02:02:17,200
Speaker 1: absolutely does, and it comes out in the product that
