1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,520
Speaker 1: Welcome to the best of the Week for What's Right

2
00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: with Nick Right the best takes and moments from this

3
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:06,440
Speaker 1: week on the show.

4
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 2: Enjoy.

5
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:12,959
Speaker 1: We have to lead this morning with just a huge bummer,

6
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: which is a young woman who I truly and I

7
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 1: said this last year, I think, well, and I'm not

8
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 1: going to use past tints, but I had said this

9
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 1: in the past, and I still believe it has a

10
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 1: chance to be the greatest women's basketball player ever. I

11
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:39,599
Speaker 1: truly believe that. I believe that. When everyone was talking

12
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 1: about and I obviously was a huge part of the

13
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: talk as well, about the phenomenon that is Caitlyn Clark,

14
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: I think you guys heard me say a couple times

15
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 1: on the show that I thought Juju Watkins at USC

16
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: might end up being even better than Caitlin and even

17
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: better than everybody her size, her athleticism, her basketball IQ.

18
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: It is elite of the elite, and a player that

19
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: can do everything, a player that recently put up a

20
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 1: stat line that had not been put up in men's

21
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: or women's professional or college basketball this century. When I

22
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: think she had thirty eight points, eleven rebounds, five assists,

23
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: eight blocks, and again a forty minute college game. She

24
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 1: tore ACL last night, and it's just devastating for a

25
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: bunch of reasons. It puts it I would imagine on

26
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: the board that she doesn't play college basketball again. Now

27
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: I would think she does. I would think that the

28
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: plan is for her to miss all of next season

29
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,040
Speaker 1: and then come back for what would be her senior year.

30
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 1: I guess red shirt junior year and continue to play.

31
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: And with NIL and the WNBA salary structure, I would

32
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 1: have to imagine Juju can potentially make far more money

33
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: at USC than she would at the beginning of her

34
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 1: WNBA career, unless something drastically changes with the rookie salary

35
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 1: scale there. But this is just an ultimate bummer because

36
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 1: getting we got in the final four last year Page

37
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: versus Caitlin, and we were basically assured that we were

38
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: going to get Page versus Juju in the Elite eight,

39
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: and it was I talked about how I didn't love

40
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,760
Speaker 1: that they put USC in Yukon in the same region

41
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: because that felt like it should be a final four

42
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: and national championship potential matchup, And it ends up that

43
00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: it's going to be, and USC should still get they

44
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: should be able to win next round without Juju, but

45
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: not past that. They absolutely can't beat Yukon without Juju.

46
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: And you just feel sick for this young lady who

47
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: is has the real potential to be a true superstar,

48
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:29,640
Speaker 1: a true crossovers not just great player. She's obviously going

49
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: to be well, she already is a great player, and

50
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: she and a torn ACL you know, is not career

51
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: altering the way.

52
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: It once was, but.

53
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: She needs a great NCAA tournament run just to catapult

54
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: her celebrity the way Caitlin had and the way honestly

55
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: Angel Reese, who no disrespect to Angel Reese, but Angel

56
00:03:55,160 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: Reese is not nearly the caliber of player of or

57
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: of Juju, or of Page for that matter, and they

58
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,360
Speaker 1: have all had these great tournament runs.

59
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 2: Juju.

60
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: This was going to be that this year, and if

61
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 1: not this year, next year and now out for I

62
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,919
Speaker 1: would imagine all of next season, which is just such

63
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: an absolute bummer. And here is the thing about acls

64
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: the way I have seen them over the last decade.

65
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 1: Acls are different in that they used to truly be

66
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: career altering, and these days they are not. Meaning people

67
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: typically come back one hundred percent to their pre ACL

68
00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: tear ability strength, speed, quickness, all of that, but they

69
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 1: are not quick injuries. It usually is a minimum of

70
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: a calendar year that you are out, and usually a

71
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: little more than that until you look like your old self.

72
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 1: So a huge bummer. Not really, this is put this

73
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 1: in the huge story not a great topic category, and

74
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: I mean that's kind of what it is. There's not

75
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 1: much to say. It's massive news, but it just sucks.

76
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: There's no real take to have. And so Juju Watkins

77
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 1: out and I have to you know, Yukons Now, I'm

78
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: gonna look it up on DraftKings.

79
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 2: I just can't.

80
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: Maybe you guys can put in the dock for me.

81
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I know they're the favorite, but I just

82
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 1: wonder what they are now is Yukon women to win

83
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 1: that region, to win the region, I have to imagine

84
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 1: they are minus huge money. I'm not able to pull

85
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: it up right now. If you guys can road in

86
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: the dock whenever you can find it, just put what

87
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 1: they are to win the championship and what they are

88
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: to win the region, because I do not see who

89
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: possibly could stop them. Certainly now, listen UCLA South Carolina.

90
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 1: Those are legitimate championship level teams, but I Yukon's in

91
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,320
Speaker 1: the final four and they're now plus one sixty to

92
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: win the whole thing. We can't find them to win

93
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: the region. But it's not gonna be I mean they

94
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: it's not gonna be much of a question. I saw,

95
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: I got the I had the privilege of watching the

96
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: Yukon women in person from court side seats thanks to Fox.

97
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: The game was on Fox beginning of the year, and

98
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,039
Speaker 1: I left that game saying, I don't know how anyone's

99
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 1: beating them. Now, UCLA and South Carolina is obviously a juggernaut,

100
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 1: and usc had shown oh no, they're they're off that

101
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 1: and Yukon lost a few times. But I feel like

102
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: you can put probably in pen A Yukon UCLA final

103
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: four on your left side of the bracket, and you know,

104
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: thoughts with Juju. It absolutely sucks, just absolutely sucks that

105
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: she's done for the year and potentially done for next year.

106
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,000
Speaker 1: One note, and I'm sure this will happen because Page

107
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 1: is such an awesome athlete and awesome person. From all accounts,

108
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 1: Page dealt with an ACL and missed a year, and

109
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: so I would imagine if she has not already, Paige

110
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: is going to reach out to Juju and try to

111
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 1: help her through it, but really really sucks for basketball fans,

112
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: for USC fans, for Juju. This episode of What's Right

113
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: is brought to you by dea pizza featuring dry free

114
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: cheese made with the new Data oat Cream Blend. Dairy

115
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: free cheese has come a long way. Data is leading

116
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 1: the charge. Their pizzas offer the melton stretch of traditional

117
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: cheese without any dairy. Each day of pizza starts with

118
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: a perfectly crisped crust, layered with savory, satisfying toppings, and

119
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 1: finished with cheese that melts and stretches beautifully. The Data

120
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: oat Cream Blend delivers a creamy, cheesy texture that's indistinguishable

121
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: from dairy based options. Every pizza is crafted to be

122
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: dairy free, making it a great choice for anyone seeking

123
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: more inclusive meal options without compromising on taste. Data takes

124
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: the concept of dairy free to a new level, eliminating

125
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: faux MoU that is not the fear of cows, that

126
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: is the fear of missing dairy. These pizzas delivered delicious

127
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 1: tastes and texture, making them perfect for any occasion, from

132
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 1: Followed DAYA on Instagram in TikTok for more updates and recipes.

133
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: Bronnie James thirty nine, seven, four and four for the

134
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,840
Speaker 1: South Bay Lakers last night against Santa Cruz. He was

135
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,560
Speaker 1: a plus nineteen in his thirty eight minutes. It was

136
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 1: far and away his best game at the professional level.

137
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: And this is where I will as I have remind

138
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: everyone that twenty months ago, July twenty fifth or twenty

139
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: fourth of twenty twenty three, this kid suffered cardiac arrest.

140
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: It totally derailed his collegiate season. And that is evidenced

141
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 1: by the fact that he has now had ten professional games,

142
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: one at the NBA level and nine at the G

143
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: League level that are better than anything he ever did

144
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 1: at in college. And so when people pointed out, like,

145
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 1: oh my god, look at his college statline and that's

146
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: a player that you're drafting, it, there had to be

147
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 1: some math done on. Yes, his collegiate numbers were that

148
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: of a player that typically would not be drafted, even

149
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 1: late in the second round. But if you throw the

150
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,080
Speaker 1: season away and say those numbers were due to the

151
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: fact that he never got his legs or his wind

152
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 1: underneath them because of the months he had to stay

153
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 1: away from the court because they thought he might not

154
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: be able to play basketball ever again due to a

155
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:46,000
Speaker 1: congenital heart defect, then maybe, just maybe you saw some

156
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:51,679
Speaker 1: traits that could be a successful player. And Kevin O'Connor,

157
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: who knows a hell of a lot more about the

158
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: draft and about college basketball than I do, tweeted to

159
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,599
Speaker 1: me this morning that if they did a redraft today,

160
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: he thought Bronni would be a first round pick, and

161
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 1: that if Bronnie can keep up this shooting, then he's

162
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 1: a legitimate NBA player. And again, I am not trying

163
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: to make too much of the G League, which is

164
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: something we never talked about previously. However, because Bronni is

165
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,479
Speaker 1: a star and because he has been the subject of scrutiny,

166
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: we have to be fair in that the expectation was

167
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: that in the G League with grown men, with a

168
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 1: lot of guys who were former first round picks trying

169
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: to make a career for themselves with a lot of

170
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: guys who had a lot more experience than him, with

171
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 1: a lot of guys who were much more highly drafted

172
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,680
Speaker 1: than him, that he was going to it certainly in

173
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: his first year in the G League, really have his

174
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 1: work cutout for him now and more than his work

175
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: cutout for him potentially really strung. And instead he now

176
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,319
Speaker 1: after not playing well in Summer League and not playing

177
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: well in the G League's kind of preseason I don't

178
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: even tip off tournament or whatever they call it, in

179
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:18,880
Speaker 1: the G League regular season, he is now averaging twenty

180
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:24,959
Speaker 1: two five and five on forty six thirty eight eighty splits.

181
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: That is a great value for your fifty fifth overall pick,

182
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,520
Speaker 1: and shout out and credit to Brownie. And so we're

183
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: not gonna spend more time on that. But that was

184
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 1: in what missed the Cup, But he didn't actually miss

185
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: the cut.

186
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 2: We did a nice few minutes on it. Also.

187
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: SVP my guy after Maryland finally gets on the right

188
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: side of a buzzer beater, tweets you know he's a

189
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: Dieyard Terrapin fan, and he tweets out never a doubt

190
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: as a wise man says, shout out Scott Van Pelt,

191
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: Ernie Johnson, Kevin Wilds the only three people in sports

192
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: media with one hundred percent approval ratings. And very nice

193
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: of Scott to include. You know, obviously my trademark tattooed

194
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 1: came up with first person ever use a phrase, never

195
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: a doubt. Very nice of him to use that in

196
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:23,160
Speaker 1: celebrating an all time Marilynd moment. More on the tournament

197
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: in a second, and I guess that is one way

198
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: to put it. I did invite myself on The Kelsey's pod.

199
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:33,600
Speaker 1: The Kelsey's tweeted should we have an NFL salary cap

200
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 1: expert on the show? And I just responded, I got you.

201
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: I'm you know that way it can be said because

202
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,319
Speaker 1: obviously I'm a salary cap expert, but also we could

203
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: talk other things and it would be interesting because you know,

204
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: Eagles fans tend not to like me that much, but Jason,

205
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: I would imagine does I don't know, but if we

206
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 1: could get a What's Right with Nick Wright New Heights crossover,

207
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: that would have to be good for the burgeoning What's

208
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 1: Right brand, which, by the way, YouTube's like rate, subscribe

209
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,040
Speaker 1: review on all platforms. YouTube just crossed one hundred and

210
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 1: ninety thousand, so we appreciate you guys for that. Where

211
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 1: the slow climb towards two hundred thousand continues, But also

212
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: we'd really like you guys to subscribe on either iTunes

213
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,200
Speaker 1: or Spotify, wherever you guys get your podcasts.

214
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 2: All right, some.

215
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 1: Quick listener questions. Noah says, do you see Dan Hurley

216
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 1: as the rich Man's Nick? Sirianni, that's listen. I think

217
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: that's on the board. Yeah, I mean I think that's

218
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: a good a good potential comp and Syrians champion now too.

219
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: But Syrian doesn't seem to think the media treats him unfairly. Oh,

220
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: the our producers say, maybe they're changing parts and pit stops.

221
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: That's maybe that's it. Maybe the cars are good pre

222
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: race than during the race. There are some shenanigans. Taylor asks,

223
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: why is achilles or an acls sometimes considered a two

224
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 1: year injuries consistently, but a literal heart attack isn't taking

225
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: the same understanding. That's about Bronnie. I think it's because

226
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: we look at things that aren't like physical injuries is

227
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 1: like binary, like is he okay? Is he allowed to

228
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 1: play again? Okay, then he should be the same when

229
00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: in reality it's the time off that I think really

230
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: hurts these guys at times. Sixness says, what would it

231
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: take for you to get into hockey? How much skew

232
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 1: would you need to see in the Vegas books for

233
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 1: betting to be a thing for you during the NHL season?

234
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: I for the sake of my marriage, I don't think

235
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: I can pick up another sport that I'm into right now.

236
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: Maybe at some point in life, but I just know

237
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 1: so little about hockey. Can't see, didn't have a team.

238
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: I've never been into it, So I nothing against the sport.

239
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: I just I it's very very it'd be very, very

240
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 1: tough for me to tell my wife now, by the way,

241
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 1: also watching hockey, especially because I've kind of refallen in

242
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 1: love with baseball thanks to Bobby Witt Junior and the

243
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: Royals being legit again. Uh all right, Alex, is there

244
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 1: a single anything the Rockets can do? Our last tea

245
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 1: games make you believe that they can win a single round? Yeah,

246
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: to win a single round?

247
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 2: For sure?

248
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 1: There is stuff they can do. So because the Rockets

249
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: have a tough schedule, tough ish schedule, I should say

250
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 1: down the stretch, So the Atlanta Utah is their next two,

251
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 1: but then it's Phoenix who's on a four game winning streak,

252
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: Lakers Utah again, Oklahoma City, Golden State Clippers, Lakers Denver.

253
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:44,000
Speaker 1: The Rockets play well during that stretch and hold their positioning.

254
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: I certainly could see them winning around. My fear for

255
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 1: them is they're gonna drop from the two to like

256
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: the four, and unless they are playing an injured Memphis team,

257
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 1: I don't think they could again. I think the Rockets

258
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 1: have had an unbelievable season as it is. They're gonna

259
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 1: win around fifty games. But for me to believe in

260
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 1: them to win around in the playoffs, they have to

261
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: show me more. And Scott says, what would it take

262
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 1: for tom En on the hot seat? They haven't been

263
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 1: a true contender since they lost to Jacksonville in twenty seventeen. Listen,

264
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: he's just got a contracts sension. I think the Steelers

265
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 1: have had three coaches in fifty years. I actually think

266
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: what could be best for the Steelers and for Tomlin

267
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: would be a fresh start for both of them. But

268
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 1: it doesn't He's obviously an excellent coach. I just don't

269
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,920
Speaker 1: know that you can. I think he if he could

270
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 1: have gotten a job like the one Jim Harball got

271
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: where the quarterback is taken care of and you build

272
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,200
Speaker 1: the rest of it up, that might be the best.

273
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 2: And he just hasn't been able to.

274
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,400
Speaker 1: Figure out the offensive side of the ball post Big Ben,

275
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:52,399
Speaker 1: or even with Big Ben near the end. When it

276
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 1: comes to college basketball and mark Mania, one thing's for sure.

277
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 1: Nothing's for sure gonna be upsets. There's gonna be buzzer beaters.

278
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,239
Speaker 1: We haven't had as many upsets. We just had a

279
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:07,400
Speaker 1: sick buzzer beater, and theoretically Cinderellas should be advancing top

280
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 1: seeds going home early.

281
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:09,960

308
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:06,200
Speaker 1: has made a grievous error. He just today he said, quote,

309
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: He'll smile on your face and stab you in the back.

310
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,600

00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: literally circumitted meritocracy in the NBA. Here's the problem, man,

313
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 1: and this is where by continuing to talk about this

314
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 1: and not allowing yourself to take the l you are

315
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: really putting yourself in a bad spot. You always claimed

316
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 1: you had no problem with Lebron. You always claimed he

317
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 1: only had a problem with you. Up until six weeks ago,

318
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:50,919
Speaker 1: the stance was, oh, nothing but love with Lebron James. I,

319
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:55,679
Speaker 1: you know, at a great person in the community, a

320
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 1: great this, a great that. I just I just think

321
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:06,479
Speaker 1: he's not the greatest basketball player ever. I just think

322
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:10,600
Speaker 1: he's only the second greatest player ever. And because of that,

323
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 1: he has a problem with me. That's been the public stance.

324
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,399
Speaker 1: And now the guy makes fun of you on Instagram

325
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 1: and takes a couple jokes at your spense on McAfee,

326
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 1: and you're letting everyone know, actually, no, never liked him.

327
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: And so if the if, if we are going to

328
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 1: do a full, real telling of it. It then the

329
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 1: honest answer is, so why what's been the problem? Was

330
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,959
Speaker 1: there something personal before? And the answer is no, Lebron

331
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 1: wouldn't talk to him.

332
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 2: That was the problem.

333
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: Lebron wouldn't talk to him or acknowledge him. And Michael

334
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 1: Jordan texts with him. That's it. It's the whole thing.

335
00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:11,879
Speaker 1: That's the start of it. And so I it is.

336
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 1: People ask me all the time, man, do you believe

337
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 1: what you say? And my answer always is, now do

338
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,280
Speaker 1: I say it louder or more emphatically, or add some

339
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: spice to it or whatever? Do I dress it up?

340
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 1: Sure of course? But the reason and this is not

341
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:41,639
Speaker 1: my quote, uh, but this quote is correct. If you

342
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: never lie, you don't ever have to remember anything when

343
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: you do as And I'm not acting like I'm someone

344
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,879
Speaker 1: that never lies. I probably have a bit of a

345
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: I'm probably true character flaw of mine is I am

346
00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 1: my most honest talking to you guys, friends and family.

347
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:02,440
Speaker 2: I might you know what I mean.

348
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: I might be like, you know what, I can dance

349
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,040
Speaker 1: through the rain drops here a bit and clean this

350
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 1: up later. And that's not be honestly, it's self serving.

351
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:18,440
Speaker 1: It's not out of some Woodrow and Burnstein, Woodward Woodrow,

352
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:23,360
Speaker 1: Jesus Woodward and Burnstein journalism ethic. It's because I don't

353
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: want to have to. It is too difficult to do

354
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 1: this much content if you're having to remember, oh shit,

355
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 1: I said that, and if your stance forever, forever has

356
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: been I have no problem with that person, he has

357
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 1: a problem with me. And then the first time you

358
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 1: get pressed, you empty the clip about everything you've always

359
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: had a problem with. People are gonna say you're fucking

360
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 1: lying to us. You were lying to us, and I don't.

361
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 2: And here is the.

362
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 1: Problem with people in general who don't have the ability

363
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 1: to take an l and who are very online, and

364
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 1: who are public figures. This applies to I guess some

365
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 1: of our actual politicians and some of our potentially would

366
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,880
Speaker 1: be or want to be politicians. All you can do

367
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 1: is keep doubling, tripling and quadrupling down because you don't

368
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 1: have the ability to be like I was wrong. You

369
00:24:53,640 --> 00:25:01,360
Speaker 1: constantly are reminded of the in in and at hand,

370
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: and you are constantly reading people make fun of you

371
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: or rip you. So again, I am not trying to

372
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: act like I am some.

373
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 2: I am. You know the silver bullet on this stuff. However,

374
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:21,359
Speaker 2: I do have.

375
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 1: One kind of just natural superpower, I guess, and another

376
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 1: decision I've made. The natural superpower is this, I am

377
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: totally fine being wrong, like, oh shit, got that one wrong.

378
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,399
Speaker 1: My bad, not a problem. And the other one is

379
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:43,160
Speaker 1: I don't read my mentions, so people are like, I'm

380
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:47,200
Speaker 1: i am not finding my And at a third thing

381
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,520
Speaker 1: I'm very good at I'm I'm on the right side

382
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 1: of the.

383
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 2: Great athletes conversation.

384
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: Like the other thing is like I you know, I

385
00:25:55,880 --> 00:26:00,640
Speaker 1: in the hey Lebron James good or overrated. I had

386
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: the foresight to be like, I'll go with good, you

387
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: know what I mean. I think I'll plant my flag

388
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 1: on good and see how it plays out over the

389
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 1: next fifteen years. And so that's been help that's been helpful.

390
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 2: But I I.

391
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 1: Can't believe that this is how these last few weeks

392
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 1: have gone. And the fact that so here's the other

393
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 1: piece of it that's important demands on one one party

394
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:40,040
Speaker 1: in this is fighting a war of war work. I

395
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 1: can never say that war of words, reminders reminder of

396
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: new people in the audience and young people. I as

397
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,360
Speaker 1: someone who my only skill is speaking and arguing. Had

398
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 1: a really bad speech impediment growing up and couldn't say

399
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: my rs are my l's And now I do it

400
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,400
Speaker 1: for a living. So I this is kind of a sidebar,

401
00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,480
Speaker 1: but just for you know, young people out there or whatever,

402
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 1: like you can get over anything. I shouldn't say anything,

403
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 1: but you can work on stuff and.

404
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 2: It won't hold you back. Go ahead, No, I was

405
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,719
Speaker 2: just flexing on you. No.

406
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:19,120
Speaker 1: Well yeah, and we're world and girl. Anything that has

407
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 1: the R L next to each other like that. I

408
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,359
Speaker 1: still struggle with a bit. And I've told this story

409
00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 1: of nothing worse and not being able to say your

410
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: rs and your last name starts with a hard R,

411
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: and when it's not an R, it sounds like a

412
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 1: different word. You don't know how many times I went

413
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 1: to basketball camp as a kid, they're like, what's your name?

414
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:41,159
Speaker 2: Nick? White? They're like, no, white, white, no white. It

415
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 2: was brutal.

416
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,320
Speaker 1: Maybe that only happened once, but it.

417
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 2: It seared me. It scarred me.

418
00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 1: The guy wrote down on my jersey right, and I'm like, no,

419
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 1: it's not white, it's white. Brutal doesn't matter.

420
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 2: I'm good. Now, here's the point I was making in

421
00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 2: a war. Stephen A. Is fighting a war of words.

422
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,359
Speaker 1: Lebron gets actually go out and play the games, and

423
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:11,600
Speaker 1: he's still awesome. So think about it. In the couple

424
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: weeks since this all happened, Lakers had a winning streak,

425
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:24,920
Speaker 1: Bronni drops thirty nine drops, a career high in the NBA,

426
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: has another good game the other night, bron last night

427
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 1: hits a game winner, And you have positioned yourself. I

428
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 1: can't imagine being this box stend. You have now positioned

429
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 1: yourself where any time you give fair analysis about a

430
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,280
Speaker 1: good Laker game or Bronni or whatever, you're.

431
00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 2: Gonna get ripped for that too. Like you are all.

432
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 2: You are so boxed.

433
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 1: In and the guy, honest to God, So much of this,

434
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 1: as I've said before, so much of the toxicity of

435
00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 1: sports media, across all sports and all our debates, is

436
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: actually about Michael Jordan and that era and that era

437
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 1: of people who came up in that era being like, man,

438
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 1: my childhood was the best, I promise like and not

439
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:38,000
Speaker 1: seeing that every single human being ever, it's like, hey,

440
00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: what's your favorite type of music? And for everyone it

441
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: just happens to be the exact type of music they

442
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: were listening to when they first got their car and

443
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: first were able to drive. Who are the best athletes?

444
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,840
Speaker 1: And it's like, oh, it just happens to be for everyone,

445
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: myself included the athletes like we watched in our formative

446
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: years and then into a dulthood and not being able

447
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: to see that it's not special. It's just how human beings,

448
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 1: brains are constructed. But point is, this whole thing really

449
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: generates from MJ's my buddy. This guy won't talk to me.

450
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: I must, against all odds, support MJ's legacy.

451
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 2: But MJ ain't playing anymore.

452
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,480
Speaker 1: You're never gonna be able to go on.

453
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 3: The show and be like, ah, look what Michael did.

454
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:40,920
Speaker 3: But this other guy won't fucking quit. He's he is.

455
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 1: We are in a span of ten days, his son

456
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: almost drops forty in the G League and scores are

457
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 1: leads the Lakers in points in the NBA, and he

458
00:30:55,760 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 1: has a buzzer beater, And so it's just a war

459
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,040
Speaker 1: you're not gonna win. And it's a war you're not

460
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: gonna win because I think because of your popularity and

461
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 1: success and talent, people of what enough people have watched

462
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: you for long enough that we know what the record says,

463
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,320
Speaker 1: and we know you have always claimed you have.

464
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 2: No problem with Lebron. He has a problem with.
