We'll talk about that coming up. As you know, 13 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 2: in an hour from now.

The callers have been tremendous 16 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 2: over the last few months since we started this. But 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 2: we begin in Boston, you know, as you as you 18 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 2: may or may not remember, six years ago, Kyrie Irving 19 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: was supposed to be the future of the Celtics franchise. 20 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 2: Of course he left on bad terms, but before that 21 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 2: he actually had a little playoff run in twenty seventeen 22 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen. That was before Kyrie Irving was loaded. He 23 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,480 Speaker 2: was injured but not loathed yet. Two of his young teammates, 24 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 2: Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown with They led Boston on 25 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: the shocking run to Game seven of the Eastern Conference Finals, 26 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 2: and they almost beat Well that what's that guy's name 27 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 2: who always wants he can't stay out of the news 28 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 2: because he's so desperate for attention. I forget. I think 29 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 2: it might it rhymes with I don't know Brown or something. Anyway, 30 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: I digress. Well, Kyrie had a bit of a rude 31 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 2: wakening Thursday night. The Celtics welcome Kyrie back to TD 32 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 2: Garden by as our buddy Kevin Figures would say, molly 33 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: whopping the Dallas Mavericks one oh seven eighty nine game, 34 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: wasn't that? I think they trailed by his many his 35 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 2: twenty nine points. They being the Dallas Mavericks trailed by 36 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 2: his Many's twenty nine in the first half, and Luca 37 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 2: got a little he woke up in the second half. 38 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 2: They cut the defison to nine. But you know that 39 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 2: on that light at the end of the title turned 40 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 2: out to be an oncoming train. Boston responded with a 41 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 2: sixteen to two run of their own, and Jalen Brown 42 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: looked like a man possessed and he finished with twenty 43 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,799 Speaker 2: two points seven or twelve three blocks, three steals. Chris 44 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,959 Speaker 2: STAPs back from his caffe inje he hadn't played since 45 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 2: the first round of the playoffs. What a huge addition, 46 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 2: twenty points eight for thirteen had the posterized block. Luca 47 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 2: had a very quiet thirty points. He was only twelve 48 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 2: to twenty six from the floor ten rebounds, but one 49 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 2: assist that sticks out in my mind because Kyrie Irving 50 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,119 Speaker 2: struggled mightily to get anything going, finished with twelve points, 51 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 2: missed all five of his three point attempts, but the 52 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: one assist. Hold that thought, see bos I think if 53 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 2: you do the math, and you hadn't watched this game, 54 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,679 Speaker 2: just looked at the matth you hit yourself for hell, 55 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 2: Mavis lost by twenty Why Boston attempted fifteen more threes 56 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 2: than Dallas did forty two to twenty seven, had made 57 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 2: nine more sixteen to seven. They have it even if 58 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 2: the Celtics had been a bit colder. That's terrible, terrible, 59 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: you know math for Dallas. That has to change. And 60 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 2: I think Luka Naanchik gave I think he gave the 61 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 2: Celtics a lot of credit regarding their space. And we 62 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 2: all know they live and die by the three. Well, 63 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 2: Dallas better get busy living or get busy dying, there, 64 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 2: Andy Dufrain, because Doncik is right, they've got to take 65 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 2: those threes away. But don't tell me, show me the 66 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 2: Celtics they shoot more threes than anybody in Dallas's defense, 67 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 2: which has been really good the last couple of months. 68 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: They're better at protecting the paint than they are taking 69 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: away threes. That's just a fact. Now, the MAVs they 70 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: could maybe go with small lineups more often in Game two, 71 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 2: but and then they did add a couple times in 72 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 2: the opener. But the truth of the matter is dere 73 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 2: Daniel Gafford and Derek Lively both they ended up only 74 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 2: playing like eighteen minutes because they had foul trouble in 75 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 2: the opener. They were the guys that really gave Dallas 76 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: their defensive identity and theoretically they could potentially provide a 77 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,720 Speaker 2: problem for Boston on the offensive last but the bigger 78 00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 2: problem was on the other end. The MAVs shot fewer 79 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 2: threes that they did in any other game this entire 80 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 2: season except for one during the regular season. Nobody shot 81 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 2: more corner threes in Dallas, but on Thursday they only 82 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 2: got three of them. Then let's go back to the 83 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 2: assist number I gave you. This is something that isn't normal. 84 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 2: This was a massive, massive assist differential. The Mavericks had 85 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 2: nine assists, two were in garbage time. Dallas actually had 86 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 2: more turnovers eleven then they had assists nine. Boston had 87 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 2: as many blocks as Dallas did assists. Even when the 88 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 2: MAVs appeared to get some momentum in the third quarter, 89 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 2: they were never any kind of cohesive rhythm offensively. They 90 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: just weren't. They didn't have a single assist in the 91 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 2: third quarter, and that's when they had their run. There 92 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 2: was no ball movement. Even Jason Kidds said, you know, 93 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 2: the ball stuck. We were stuck too much on the 94 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: other side. Give it up, Jason Tatum, Derek White, Drew Holiday. 95 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 2: They had five assists the piece. Boston had twenty three assists. 96 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 2: That's how you do it, even in this water down NBA, 97 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 2: which at times looks like a train wreck to me, 98 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: If you can move the ball with purpose and distribute 99 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 2: the ball and get the defense moving their feet and 100 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 2: create looks through through sharp passing, and you shoot as 101 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 2: well as the Celtics did the other night. It could 102 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 2: be a long series for Dallas. Now I'm not a 103 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 2: prisoner of the moment. I think this is going to 104 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 2: be a good series. But Dallas does have to make adjustment. 105 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: And then Chuck Daily told me, went, look, everything looks 106 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 2: better when the ball goes through the basket, and when 107 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 2: it is it is, and when it isn't, it isn't. 108 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 2: Boston made nine more threes than Dallas did. There you 109 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 2: have it. Dallas couldn't throw a pee in the ocean. 110 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: You know, the fact that they didn't have assists and 111 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 2: they looked lackluster defensively, YadA yah. That was used to 112 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 2: buy product. The fact they were chasing their tail all night. 113 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 2: And then give it up to Derek Jones rejecting people 114 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 2: at the rim, rejecting Kyrie Jalen Brown again looked like 115 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 2: a man possessed. He was very aggressive all night. He 116 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 2: attacked a basket. There's no question he expended a ton 117 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: of energy on both ends of the floor. He was 118 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 2: the primary defender on Luca. He picked his pocket twice. 119 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 2: Then he would race the other way from contested dunks. 120 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 2: His best highlight he had a posterized dunk on Gaffer 121 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 2: the second quarter, But really the third quarter, when the 122 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 2: Celtics are looking a little shaky, that's when Jalen Brown 123 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 2: really stepped up in what I would consider kind of, 124 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: you know, an MVP stretch. He grabbed control of the game. 125 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 2: He took the challenge upon himself. He took aim, and 126 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 2: he says, I'm not going to be defined by just 127 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 2: one thing. Yeah, I like to shoot, like to make plays, 128 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 2: but I want to be seen as a well rounded player. 129 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 2: I want to be seen as someone who can defend 130 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 2: you on ball off ball. He did all of that 131 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 2: last night. After one of the deep threes Boston put 132 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 2: up that you know, put the self except by twenty 133 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 2: eight points in the third quarter. Jalen Brown, I don't 134 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 2: know if he glanced at his teammates, but the camera 135 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: kind of panned over to the bench. They all had 136 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 2: huge smiles on his face, including Kristaps Porsingis. This is 137 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 2: like drawing up a script. You bring Porsingis back. He 138 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 2: makes some mid range jumpers over Jayden Hardy and then 139 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 2: he then he drives past Derrek Lyley for a two 140 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 2: handed dunk. Porsinga's came up big. He made his presence 141 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 2: felt on both ends. Twenty points af from thirteen from 142 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 2: the floor, six rebounds, three blocks. So there you have. 143 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 2: Celtics are up one zip. We see against Sunday night. 144 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 2: I think Porzingis got into his comfort zone very quickly. 145 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 2: And I don't know if he's going to continue to 146 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 2: come off the bench or not, but I don't. I 147 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 2: think Dallas better figure set them out here fairly quickly. 148 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 2: You don't necessarily want to go down two to oh obviously, right, 149 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 2: that doesn't mean the series is over. I don't think 150 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 2: you've seen anywhere near what Dallas can do. But remember 151 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 2: Boston's been there before and Dallas hasn't. Boston looks angry. 152 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 2: They look like they wanted more. At least they wanted 153 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 2: game one more, I'll tell you that, and that's something. 154 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 2: So was it an entertaining game? Absolutely not. Does it 155 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 2: still have the chance to be an entertaining series? Absolutely 156 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: because you have storylines, Right, this is the point in 157 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 2: the playoffs where you start to infuse your stories about journeys. 158 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,319 Speaker 2: No matter who wins these NBA finals, both the MAVs 159 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,000 Speaker 2: and the Celtics have been through a lot, and they've 160 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 2: played one hundred games, and you're gonna have a situation 161 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 2: where either Luca gets his ring and Kyrie gets another ring, 162 00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 2: or Jalen Brown and Jason Tatum get the monkey off 163 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 2: their back and don't act like it's not there, and 164 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 2: they know it. You could see it on Jalen Brown's 165 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 2: face last night. And I say that in a complimentary way. 166 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 2: The dude stepped up, He played with purpose. Coming up 167 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 2: what has become the biggest story of the week, not 168 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 2: even close, is the continued Laker circus. Only this time 169 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: all of us, including me, thought, well, we thought JJ 170 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 2: Reddick was a shoe in. Now I'm hearing, well, maybe 171 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 2: Sam Cassell doesn't want a rite shotgun. Maybe James Brego 172 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 2: isn't exactly looking to be his bench jockey. I don't 173 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 2: know what happened, and I'll have to you know, I'll 174 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 2: talk to mar Padina on my Saturday night show, but 175 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: I'll give you my thoughts. But I will say this. 176 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 2: You could hold it against me. You can call me 177 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 2: out later. You can say I told you. So I'm 178 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 2: going to make a bold prediction, and it's an opinion, 179 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,840 Speaker 2: but it's it's what I would call an educated opinion. 180 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: I'm going to predict there's only a ten percent chance 181 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley becomes the Lakers head coach, and it'll be 182 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 2: Hurley's decision, not the Lakers decision. Let's break that down. 183 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 2: Coming up, and I've given you what I think is 184 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: going to happen. It's an opinion.

Is that Danny Hurley. He may 209 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 2: have no NBA coaching experience, but he is an exquisite coach. 210 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 2: He's done well everywhere he's been and he is looking 211 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 2: to three pet at Yukon where he's truly built a culture. 212 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 2: He's built a program, and he has in this day 213 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 2: and age of nil in Transfer Portal and all the 214 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 2: other Michigans, he has built a family, a loyal family. 215 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 2: You know, let me start with a cliche because I'm 216 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 2: going to as I said a minute ago, I give 217 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 2: it a ten percent chance that this ends up where 218 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley is the Lakers coach now, not because I 219 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 2: don't think Danny Hurley's fabulous or do a great job. 220 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 2: I think he would not because it'll be the Lakers 221 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 2: turning him down. I think when push comes to show, 222 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 2: Hurley will turn down the Lakers, and I'll take my medicine, 223 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 2: and I think we should know by next week at 224 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 2: this time. We're not gonna know the next couple of days. 225 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 2: On think. I think by next week at this time, 226 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 2: and I sign out for my Friday show June fourteenth, 227 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 2: I think, well, no, this is a very audacious story. 228 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 2: You know, Hurley's not a done deal. But let me 229 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: start with a cliche. The NBA is a players league. 230 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 2: College basketball is a coaches league. You know, the great 231 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 2: Chuck Daily Daddy Rich, one of those arrogant men, great 232 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,439 Speaker 2: basketball coach, back to back championship with the Pistons, presented 233 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,439 Speaker 2: a Bad Boys, once told me he says, in the NBA, 234 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 2: it's all about managing an adult day care center. That's 235 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 2: what it's about. And he didn't say that in the pejorative. 236 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 2: He understand that these are grown men with families and egos, 237 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 2: and they make lots of money and you have to 238 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 2: have a base level of talent to be in the NBA, 239 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 2: and you have to understand some monckham of a team 240 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 2: concept to win games. But how how you treated people, 241 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 2: how you manage people, was more so prevalent than what 242 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 2: you would do in the college game. And the college 243 00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 2: game it's you teach. Coaching is teaching. And by the way, 244 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley is an exquisite teacher. And his father, Bob, 245 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 2: was a legend at Saint Anthony's High School in New Jersey. 246 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 2: And if you ever heard this guy talk basketball, it's 247 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 2: that God came down and talked basketball. Not only is 248 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: he brilliant in terms of his offensive and defensive concepts 249 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 2: and coaching players with individual skills, he communicates in bite 250 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: sized pieces that are easy to understand and are extremely 251 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 2: wise and forthright and accurate and helpful. I saw a 252 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 2: video of him watch teaching a young man how to 253 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 2: create his own shot off the bounce. He was a 254 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 2: three pointer coach Hurley, Bob Hurley was trying to refine 255 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 2: him so he could repeat success. In order for you 256 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 2: to repeat success, you know, your mechanics have to be pristine. 257 00:14:58,200 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 2: I know they gave Doug Gottlieb but a lot of heat 258 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 2: about Caitlin Clark's mechanics, but he's not wrong in the 259 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 2: sense that if you want to repeat success, your mechanics 260 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 2: have to be pristine. So I'm watching Bob Hurley teach 261 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 2: this young man. He dribbled his left stop spot up, 262 00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 2: get his hand into the release positions, and shoot the ball, 263 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 2: and he caught a flaw and he said, look at you. 264 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,520 Speaker 2: You have created an extra degree of difficulty by your 265 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 2: movement here. Why would you do that when this is 266 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 2: difficult enough And to the untrained die you wouldn't have 267 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 2: seen it, but to the trained die. So I listened 268 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 2: to this guy teaching coach, and the way he communicates well, 269 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley is his father's son. He was always second 270 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 2: banana to Bobby Hurley. And you all know why you 271 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: don't need to go down that road. But not not 272 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 2: so much anymore, because look at what he's done. And 273 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 2: if you listen to him talk, you can listen to 274 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 2: him all day. He's a legendary coach already at a 275 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 2: program that night. He's a coach. And you followed guys 276 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 2: like the great Jim Calhoun. They expect success in Ukam. 277 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 2: It's a fish bowl, it's a hot, white hot, you know, 278 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 2: the intensity of a million suns. Place to coach in 279 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 2: a very tough conference. Look, he's got a situation there 280 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 2: that most coaches would kill for. He needs a Northeast guy. 281 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 2: He's a Jersey guy, grew up in Jersey City, went 282 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: to high school in Jersey City, coached high school in 283 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 2: Jersey City. His wife, Andrea is a Jersey girl. They're 284 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 2: Northeastern people. First of all, just moving to Los Angeles 285 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 2: is a completely different planet. Do you think his wife 286 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 2: really wants that? Where they're happy? Colin once said, you 287 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 2: can't improve on happy. He's not wrong there, you can't 288 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 2: improve on happy. Other people say, well, how many times 289 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 2: the Lakers come calling? He can't turn them down. Who 290 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 2: gives a flying horses? But dude, as the Lakers come calling, 291 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 2: that may have been a big deal to some people 292 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 2: if you're starstruck. I don't think this kid's starstruck. I 293 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:58,480 Speaker 2: think he's well grounded. I think he's nicely tuk Mark. 294 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 2: I look at it. This one. He gets up every morning, 295 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 2: Bob Danny Hurley reads a little script here, runs five miles, 296 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:11,239 Speaker 2: sits on the beach, things plans. He's got a great life. 297 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: You're not going to improve on that. 298 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 5: Now. 299 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 2: You may be some kind of legend if you go 300 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 2: to the Los Angeles Lakers and you turn that circus around. 301 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 2: You're not gonna do if Lebron's there. Now, if you're 302 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 2: talking about getting rid of Lebron, I don't know. Maybe 303 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 2: I'd say maybe you think about it. By the way, 304 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 2: give Danny Hurley a lot of credit. He's willing to listen. 305 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 2: He's doing the professional thing. He's not flouting his nose. 306 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 2: He's he's being very forthright about this. He's very dignified. 307 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 2: I'll listen to what you got to say. Why not? 308 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 2: You're the Lakers, You're an historic franchise. You don't make 309 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: any sense. You've had seven coaches since Phil Jackson was gone, 310 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: and this would be Lebron's fourth coach. You really want 311 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 2: to step into that Michigans and then I haven't even 312 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 2: mentioned Bronnie James. Are you kidding me? You're gonna have 313 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 2: to feel fart around the Bronnie James situation too. Brownie 314 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 2: James wouldn't got on the floor, yukon. Now you're gonna 315 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 2: get him on the floor with the Lakers and Bron Lebron. 316 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 2: I know that's wonderful that Lebron tweeted out ay night, 317 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 2: he's so damn good. We didn't ask you, Lebron. We 318 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 2: don't ask. We don't ever ask anything. But you got 319 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 2: to weigh on everything. We'll see how so damn good 320 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 2: he is when he yells at you for getting beat 321 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 2: on a back door cut or something in the middle 322 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 2: of a game. We'll see how long this lasts. I 323 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 2: don't have faith stepping into this circus act that this 324 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 2: is a good idea. So you got the fact that, 325 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 2: like I said, Chuck Day said, it's coaching, it's managing 326 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 2: an adult daycare center. He's Danny Hurley payable that I 327 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe you see him go off on refs. 328 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 2: I don't think he's a crazy person, No, I don't. 329 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 2: I think he's measured more than people give him credit for. 330 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 2: But I will say this, I do think he has 331 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 2: that gear, and I do think he's part of his 332 00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 2: coaching acumen, it would involve getting a little emotional now then, 333 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,119 Speaker 2: and I think he might coach the Lakers harder they 334 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,880 Speaker 2: want to be coached. And I don't know how much 335 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 2: these guys want to be taught anything. Really, just look 336 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 2: at the qual of the NBA game now that it 337 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,919 Speaker 2: used to be. Maybe I'm wrong, prove me wrong. And 338 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 2: then move into Los Angeles, you move into a different planet. 339 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 2: You move into a circus where they've had seven coaches 340 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: in what the last thirteen years? Fourteen years, and this 341 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 2: would be Lebron's fourth coach. And then again you got 342 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 2: the Bronni situation right four. You know again, I pretend 343 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 2: Brownie averaged four point eight points a game for USC 344 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 2: they were eight and twelve in conference. How would you 345 00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 2: have got? What do you have done in Connecticut? And 346 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 2: yet you're gonna just jump them to the NBA. And 347 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 2: he's got to manage through that. Now, if the Laker said, screwed, 348 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 2: we're gonna rebuild for good, Lebron's a free agent, call 349 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 2: his bluff. You're not gonna win with him. He's done 350 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 2: winning championships in LA. If you don't know that, Stevie 351 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 2: Wonder can see that. So let's put it this way. 352 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 2: You bring this in and you're asking for nothing but 353 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 2: trouble and has nothing to do with the fact that 354 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 2: I think Danny Hurley is an exquisite coach. Is an 355 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 2: exquisite teacher. Now I realize that Lebron James has already 356 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 2: endorsed Danny Hurley's acumen, But there's always a backstory to 357 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 2: what Lebron says. There's always an agenda, there's always an 358 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,640 Speaker 2: ulterior motive. Even when he brought up he's so pound 359 00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,959 Speaker 2: out of Kyrie Irving the other day had to mention Jo, 360 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,159 Speaker 2: I'm glad to see he got to do because he 361 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 2: got to do with me. He made it about him again, right, 362 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 2: And if you bring in Danny Hurley, what could you 363 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,479 Speaker 2: do to enhance that roster? You got Anthony Davis, he's 364 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,119 Speaker 2: still under contract. I keep him al Sayam's point to 365 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 2: Lebron James returning he's got until June twenty nine to 366 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 2: exercises fifty one million dollar player option. But there's a 367 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 2: lot of questions about the rest of the roster, you know, 368 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 2: after those two guys, starting with d' Angelo Russell, what 369 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 2: do you do him with him? He's got a nineteen 370 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 2: million dollar player option. If Russell opts into his contract, 371 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 2: the Lakers are not only a luxury tag teams again. 372 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 2: But though I don't even want to go down that road. Okay, 373 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 2: So I would just say this to Danny Hurley, think 374 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 2: about this long and hard. You got an excellent chance 375 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 2: to threepeat at Yukon. You're a legend, You've already built 376 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 2: a legacy. Do you really want to move across the 377 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 2: country for what? For what? Be careful what you wish for. 378 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 2: As Colin said, you can't improve unhappy. I would assume 379 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley is happy in stores Connecticut. All indicators are 380 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 2: that his wife is very happy. And one last thing. 381 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 2: One of the reasons Danny Hurley has been so successful, 382 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 2: and he said, you know Caraban decided to return instead 383 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 2: of going for going into the draft is he preaches 384 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 2: loyalty and I believe he means it. So that's why 385 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,959 Speaker 2: I give it to ten percent. I think he feels 386 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 2: this out. He gives it an honest stay in court 387 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 2: and at the end of the day he you know, 388 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 2: he hasn't come to Jesus with himself and says, what 389 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,639 Speaker 2: am I doing? What am I doing? This is just 390 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 2: this is a lark, man. I don't think I want 391 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 2: to do it coming up. I'm sitting in a pub 392 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 2: in London on May twenty second next to these folks 393 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 2: from Houston and they asked me, are they still moving 394 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 2: to Vegas?

They defeated the Red Sox seven to two. 407 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,400 Speaker 7: The Dodgers got a two RBI double from Tajoscar Hernandez 408 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 7: in the top of the eleventh to help LA beat 409 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 7: the Yankees two to one. Baltimore with three home runs 410 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 7: as part of a six to three victory in Tampa. 411 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 7: Jake Irvin outdual Chris Sale to Lee Washington over Atlanta. 412 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 7: Kansas City overcame an eight run deficit to pick up 413 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,520 Speaker 7: a ten to nine victory over Seattle and the WNBA. 414 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,159 Speaker 7: Caitlin Clark matched her career high with thirty points. She 415 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,919 Speaker 7: made seven three pointers as the Indiana Fever heild on 416 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,399 Speaker 7: to beat winless Washington eighty five to eighty three.

All right, as I just 421 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 2: said a minute ago May twenty second, I'm sitting in 422 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 2: a pub in London. They asked me, I got a 423 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,280 Speaker 2: call two days ago. Someone else asked me three times 424 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 2: in ten days. Are the A still moving to Vegas? 425 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 2: It seems to have gone radio silent. But we are 426 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,640 Speaker 2: watching this, so we're bringing our guy Alan Snell from 427 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 2: LV Sports.

So sometimes there is no news, 430 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 2: but when time, when time passes as it has, we 431 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 2: reported no news or it's all the same. But as 432 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 2: I mentioned, when I've got people and I'm sitting in 433 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 2: a pub in lon and asking me about the ASI 434 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 2: in Vegas. This is a this is a news story, 435 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 2: So bring us up to date on the latest down. 436 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 8: Well, you got two things going on. You got the 437 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 8: short term and the long term. The short term was 438 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 8: a little interesting issue that has surface. The Athletics in 439 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 8: their proposed non relocation agreement with the Las Vegas Shabium 440 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:34,679 Speaker 8: Authority Board put in a little interesting number on the 441 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 8: number of games it would like to play away from 442 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 8: Las Vegas. They said up to seven games, and that 443 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 8: kind of caught the attention of people. 444 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 2: There was a lawyer and this is after they move here. 445 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 2: You're saying, Is that what you're saying, Allen, this is 446 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 2: after they move here? 447 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 8: That is correct, after twenty twenty eight, if that's that's 448 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 8: the time they do open the stadium. There's a non 449 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 8: relocation agreement that specified, according to the a's that they 450 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 8: can play seven neutral MLB games that are considered home 451 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,200 Speaker 8: games away from Las Vegas. Realistically, Burnie, let's face it, 452 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 8: they would at most play to like for example, abilities 453 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 8: of Mets in London, stuff like that. At the most, 454 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,360 Speaker 8: and maybe you know one of those field of dreams 455 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 8: kind of one off kind of games. I mean seven 456 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 8: seems kind of far fetched, but seven was the number 457 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 8: they had in the agreement, so people were upset. It's 458 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 8: actually caused quite a little stir and I'm actually reporting 459 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 8: an interesting story on the lawyer who brought this to 460 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,479 Speaker 8: the attention of the stadium board a week ago, So 461 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 8: look for that story on LV Sports Business. They have 462 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 8: the long term, you know, the long term is, like 463 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 8: you mentioned, the A's are looking to relocate in a 464 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 8: finished stadium here on the Strip in twenty twenty eight. 465 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 8: And you know, the guy who I think is a 466 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 8: major player in this, Bernie, who hasn't really been talked about, 467 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 8: is Peter Corlino, the CEO of Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc. 468 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 8: They're the folks who own the property. They're in charge 469 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 8: of the site. 470 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 2: Plan, Bernie. 471 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 8: And you know, there's been a lot of talk about 472 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 8: Bailey's that own Trap of Canada on the site. You know, 473 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 8: the place closed in April second and there's actually the 474 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 8: place is coming kind of being taken apart as we talk. 475 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 8: You know, it's it's interesting to see what g LPI, 476 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 8: which owns the site the age want to build a 477 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 8: nine acre footprint for their stadium on the thirty five 478 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 8: acre location, and he's going to be calling the shots, 479 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:57,000 Speaker 8: and the folks that control Trapicana Bailey's, you know, we 480 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 8: don't know if they're going to be part of this. 481 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 2: So you know, hold that thought, Alan, because he raises 482 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 2: an interesting, uh sort of a pivot here. We all 483 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,360 Speaker 2: know that the Tropican is going away, that ship is sailed, 484 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 2: they're emptying it out, and by the time they employed it, 485 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 2: there'll be nothing there except the structure. But someone told 486 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 2: me two days ago on the phone that the trop 487 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:19,959 Speaker 2: is going away. Whether the A's are coming here or not, 488 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 2: is this whole thing going to turn out to be 489 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 2: a red herring? I mean, Alan, do you give it 490 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 2: what percentage chance you gave it that the A's actually 491 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 2: don't end up coming here? 492 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 8: I think it's relatively low. I know, I'm probably swimming upstream, 493 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 8: you know with a lot of the other media who's 494 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 8: you know, they know the owner, John Fisher, and he's 495 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 8: had about five different locations floated in the Bay Area 496 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,720 Speaker 8: that never came to fruition. But honestly, I don't think 497 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,440 Speaker 8: the problem will be the A's. I think the problem 498 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 8: really is Bailey's and traffic can and who's going to 499 00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 8: build the next hotel tower. And you know the A's 500 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 8: aren't getting three hundred and eighty million dollars in government 501 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,439 Speaker 8: aid through a state bill. I know it's popular or 502 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 8: you know, to trash John Fisher and the team president 503 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:09,120 Speaker 8: as well. 504 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 2: Well, let let's talk about John Fisher because one of 505 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 2: the allegations, and again I'm not as connected to this 506 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 2: as you are, is that there's some questions of whether 507 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 2: he comes up with that billion dollars he committed to. 508 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,000 Speaker 2: Is that fair or is that not fair? 509 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 8: Well, he's he has stated multiple times that he's family 510 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 8: and he have they have the money out. You know 511 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 8: they're going to have to come to the table with 512 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 8: more than a billion dollars. The stadium construction is supposed 513 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 8: to be pegged at one point five billion. The state 514 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 8: of Nevada bill has designated three hundred and eighty million. 515 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 8: So you know, he claims that he has the money 516 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 8: and he's going to follow through. I'm going to keep 517 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 8: in mind here in Las Vegas is that the chairman 518 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 8: of the stadium board is also the CEO of the 519 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 8: lv CBA Tourism Agency, which is a government agency in 520 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 8: Las Vegas designed to promote tourism and bring visitors. His 521 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 8: name is Steve Hill, and see this pretty much put 522 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 8: his reputation on the line, I think, in really representing 523 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 8: the a's position, And you know, you got to think 524 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 8: that this guy would probably not want to jeopardize his 525 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 8: position and standing if he didn't think John Fisher was 526 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 8: going to file through on this. I know it's probably 527 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 8: not a popular take. You know, obviously there's a lot 528 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 8: of assertions that Fisher is not going to be financially 529 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 8: committed to this, But honestly, from my insiders, I think 530 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 8: the problem really is Bailey's the folks who controlled with 531 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:50,720 Speaker 8: the old Tropicana, the former hotel, than it is Fisher 532 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 8: in the. 533 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 2: Agency time with alisonll LV sportscause. All right, let's look 534 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 2: at the timeline, which is one of the things we 535 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 2: always do when we have you on. Yeah, when is 536 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 2: the it is the implosion that's supposed to officially happen. 537 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 2: That's October, I believe. 538 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 8: Right, that's later this year, and from what I understand, 539 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:13,720 Speaker 8: there is going to be a groundbreaking probably around the 540 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 8: April of twenty twenty five, probably a thirty to thirty 541 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:24,479 Speaker 8: one month construction period. Keep in mind the construction folks 542 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 8: who are running the show. McCarthy and Mortenson are the 543 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 8: same exact people who built the Raider Stadium a couple 544 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 8: miles away from this particular site. And you're also going 545 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 8: to have a company called Icon that will be kind 546 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 8: of a third party to make sure everything is supposedly 547 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 8: going on schedule. And they were also involved in the 548 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 8: Raiders Stadium as well. Here's an interesting vote that has 549 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 8: to be taken probably in the first quarter of twenty 550 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 8: twenty five, since we're talking about timeline stuff, and that 551 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 8: is of the three hundred and eighty million dollars and 552 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 8: government public assistance towards the stadium construction, one hundred and 553 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 8: twenty million will be bond sold by Clark County government 554 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 8: and Clark County Commissioners. Bernie still have to technically vote 555 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 8: on it, and I would expect that vote to take 556 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 8: place in the first quarter of twenty twenty five. The 557 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 8: county will set up a district to raise money a 558 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 8: keep it. Like I mentioned it, it's only a nine 559 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:38,240 Speaker 8: acre footprint, and there'll be all kinds of fees. There'll 560 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 8: be fees on all kinds of stuff bought in the 561 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 8: nine acres at the stadium. That money will be collected 562 00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 8: and supposedly that will pay off the debt for the 563 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 8: county bonds. 564 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 2: All right, Alan, So as we wrap it up the 565 00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 2: two key things you you annotated the implosion of the Tropicana, 566 00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 2: which I'm guessing October, and then first quarter next year 567 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 2: to break ground on the stadium. Are there any other 568 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 2: in addition to the vote any other quickly, are there 569 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 2: any other timeline events that we should keep our eyes 570 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 2: on that would indicate this is moving forward? 571 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 8: Not really? I mean, let's face it, there's always going 572 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 8: to be some skepticism based on the fact that the 573 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 8: a's have tried all these different locations around the bay, 574 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 8: and honestly, you know, there's still a lot of big 575 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 8: hitters up there who don't think that Fisher is going 576 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 8: to realize this project right, and you know what, the 577 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 8: bottom line is burning, Let's face it, until the you know, 578 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 8: the shovels are hitting the dirt and the construction of 579 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,719 Speaker 8: you know, equipment is out there, there's still there's always 580 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 8: going to be skepticism, no doubt about it. 581 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 2: Alan, great stuff is always we'll get you on sooner 582 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 2: rather than later. As this story continues to be fluid, 583 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 2: I believe and of course we will. We will track 584 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 2: you down and get the updates. 585 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 8: Allen always great to talk with the Bernie take care man. 586 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,959 Speaker 2: Thanks, Thanks buddy.

Even though 594 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 2: people from around the world listening to different time zones, 595 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 2: you all know what to do, and the calls have 596 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 2: been thoughtful. The calls have been interesting. We've had arguments, 597 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 2: We've had disagreements, and remember, as I've always said, the 598 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 2: most boring conversations are when everybody agrees, and I think 599 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 2: we'll have one of the both the topics will be 600 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 2: some disagreement, and I'm going to set those up coming 601 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 2: up in just a second. By the way, one of 602 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 2: them might have to do with whether or not if 603 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,959 Speaker 2: you were advising Danny Hurt, should he take this job 604 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 2: with the Lakers or not giving all the things I 605 00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 2: laid out. There's also a second top or two, and 606 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 2: it's pretty serious business.

And we've got a couple 621 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,399 Speaker 2: I think doozies tonight. The first one I've already set up. 622 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 2: If you were advising Danny Hurley this Lakers circus coach search, 623 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,920 Speaker 2: what happened to uh jj Redick? I thought it was 624 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 2: a done deal. Well, that's maybe that's not fair, that's 625 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 2: irresponsible journalism. But all we heard was how infatuated they 626 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 2: were in this and that then I heard rumblings that 627 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 2: maybe he couldn't get the assistance he wanted. Sam Cassell, 628 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 2: James Brigo, I don't know. I'm just talking through my 629 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 2: huha here. The bottom line is this all of a sudden, 630 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,440 Speaker 2: you pivot to Danny Hurley and they're prepared to make 631 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:39,840 Speaker 2: a massive offer. 632 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:40,879 Speaker 9: Uh. 633 00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,280 Speaker 2: And if you're Danny Hurley, you're already a legend at Yukon. 634 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 2: You're going for a three pete. You're an exquisite teacher. 635 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 2: I've already said that. Chuck Daily has told me that 636 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 2: coaching in the NBA is all about managing an adult 637 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 2: daycare centators. Danny early really want to do that. He's 638 00:35:55,960 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 2: a teacher, and you're going to move to another planet 639 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles, totally different. And how about his wife Andrea? 640 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 2: This would be the Lakers seventh coach since Phil Jackson 641 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 2: left in the fourth under Lebron. Oh in Lebron, the 642 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 2: Lebron factor. You really want to deal with that noise? 643 00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 2: The guy can't shut up. I don't care what he says, 644 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 2: I got it, his legacy secure, he's probably gonna play 645 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 2: it another thirty years. You're gonna get rid of this guy, 646 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 2: get rid of him. Lakers didn't bring but didn't bring 647 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley in and start to rebuild. As long as 648 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 2: Lebron is there, you're rebuilding nothing. He's gonna take up 649 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:33,319 Speaker 2: all the air in the room and all the air 650 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 2: in the salary cap. And then Bronni. I don't think 651 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 2: Broni can get on the court at Yukon, but you're 652 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 2: gonna get on the court with the Lakers. You're gonna 653 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 2: develop Bronni. Why you're gonna You're gonna invest time developing Bronni. 654 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 2: By the way, I love Danny Hurley. How's he gonna 655 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 2: feel about losing forty games a year? Forty five a year. 656 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 2: I don't think he's lost that in his whole career. 657 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 2: It's just kidding, all right there, you get my point. 658 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 2: So if you were really advising Danny Hurley, in the 659 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,919 Speaker 2: words of Colin Carr, you can't improve on happy. Would 660 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,919 Speaker 2: you advise Danny Hurley to take the job or would 661 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 2: you say, hey man, how many times the Lakers come calling? Right? 662 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,719 Speaker 2: I don't care and call me. I'm not gone. I 663 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 2: was an intern there. I loved it, by the way, 664 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 2: So what maybe that doesn't mean so much to a 665 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:17,399 Speaker 2: lot of people just because you think it does. Maybe 666 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,919 Speaker 2: it doesn't everybody. Hell, how many times does NAP Auto 667 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 2: Parts come calling? How many times does anybody come calling? 668 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,280 Speaker 2: Lakers come call a lot, just as the seven coaches 669 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 2: that came and went in the last five minutes. All right, 670 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 2: so you got my deal there? The second one of 671 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:35,839 Speaker 2: this serious issue, damn serious issue. This past week, San 672 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 2: Diego Potter's infielder to compete Marsano banned for life by 673 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 2: the Major leagues for betting on baseball games. You know, 674 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,040 Speaker 2: we bet like on two hundred and thirty one major 675 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 2: League baseball games over a two year period, and they've 676 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 2: got their records to prove it. Apparently he won like 677 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,439 Speaker 2: ten of his bets, won like four percent of his bets. 678 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? The Major League Baseball investigation found 679 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,320 Speaker 2: the twenty five of those bets included pirates games while 680 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 2: Marcano was assigned or was playing in Pittsburgh. So apparently 681 00:38:12,160 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 2: he bet on games according to his reports that he 682 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 2: was involved in. Now, they also said there's no evidence 683 00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 2: to suggest that any outcomes on the games in which 684 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,799 Speaker 2: he plays for compromised, which also leads us to John 685 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,919 Speaker 2: Tay Porter, who is banned for a lifetime. And now 686 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:30,439 Speaker 2: this is this is getting, you know, even a little 687 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 2: bit more serious because two more are charged in the 688 00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:37,120 Speaker 2: betting scandal that involved x NBA player johntay Porter. So 689 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 2: you've got a guy, You've got a you had an 690 00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 2: NBA player that was banned for life, and now you've 691 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 2: got a Major League Baseball player banned for life not 692 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:51,279 Speaker 2: messing around? Is this what they need to do? I want, 693 00:38:51,320 --> 00:38:53,359 Speaker 2: I would like your opinion on when you're hearing these 694 00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 2: guys are banned for life, is this what needs to 695 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 2: have happen to fix this? Or are we never going 696 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 2: to fix this? And now are we basically having what 697 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 2: I would call a gambling reckoning This whole spring and 698 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 2: gambling across the sports industry. They're hitting inflection points right 699 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,440 Speaker 2: and left. And the truth of the matter is there 700 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 2: are people that are raising questions. I'm not one of 701 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 2: them necessarily that believe that this coexistence between legalized betting 702 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 2: and league operations is getting more difficult, even though it's 703 00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 2: clear that it's working it's clearly that it's working in 704 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,319 Speaker 2: terms of enforcement. But when Major League Baseball suspends five 705 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 2: players Tuesday for betting on baseball, including a lifetime ban 706 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,640 Speaker 2: on Tucapedo Marsano, and then we just got done. We're 707 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 2: not actually done with the Johntay Porter NBA situation. Let's 708 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 2: get your thoughts on sports legalized betting and do these 709 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 2: guys need to be banned for life or maybe a 710 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 2: two year band and they can come back after they 711 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 2: say five Hillmorians and go to church. Then would you 712 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 2: advise Danny Hurley one way or the other and taking 713 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 2: the Lakers job?

It's probably the 756 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:13,800 Speaker 10: most pressure field job. 757 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:14,160 Speaker 5: You can take. 758 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 10: I mean, the LA media, you know, all the Lakers 759 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:18,960 Speaker 10: fans like they are, they're a pretty hard. 760 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 9: Team to work for. 761 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 10: And then second of all, to add on to the media, 762 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:23,760 Speaker 10: you've got the Lebron James effect. 763 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 2: Who knows what's gonna happen with that. 764 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,360 Speaker 10: I mean, I think Brownie James, if that like actually 765 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:31,359 Speaker 10: happens and he gets drafted to the Lakers, I think 766 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:32,479 Speaker 10: that could be a bleep show. 767 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 11: But so I think there's a lot. 768 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 10: Of things that could go wrong. But also at the 769 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 10: same time, he's making like super good money to get 770 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 10: a shot in the pros. So like if I'm like, 771 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 10: you know, his agent or whatever, I'm explaining them what 772 00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 10: I just said to you. 773 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:46,799 Speaker 9: It's just like, bro, you. 774 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 2: Got so what would you would would you would you 775 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 2: advise him to take it or not?

Go ahead, 778 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 2: he could. 779 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:58,719 Speaker 10: He could probably get a whole another better job if 780 00:42:58,719 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 10: he just waited it out. 781 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:00,400 Speaker 5: I did some more. 782 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,800 Speaker 2: He's got a great job.

I mean, that's just really stupid. Why you 1115 00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:16,200 Speaker 19: would do I don't understand why you would do that. 1116 00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:20,640 Speaker 19: I gambled a little bit. I remember the guy that 1117 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:22,800 Speaker 19: called a couple of a couple of callers ago. He 1118 00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:24,040 Speaker 19: said he's really good at it. 1119 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:24,560 Speaker 11: Well I'm not. 1120 00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,080 Speaker 19: I'm stink and I lose a lot of I wouldn't 1121 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:28,720 Speaker 19: say I lose a lot of money. 1122 00:59:28,560 --> 00:59:29,680 Speaker 8: But I lose at it. 1123 00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:33,120 Speaker 19: I don't win. Uh, And I'm smart enough to know 1124 00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 19: that I don't bet my my my mortgage money on it, 1125 00:59:37,240 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 19: or my car payment or whatever. I just, you know, 1126 00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:43,040 Speaker 19: I fibble and dabble a little bit. But getting back 1127 00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:46,280 Speaker 19: to these guys betting on your own team is stupid. 1128 00:59:46,320 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 19: I think if you are dumb enough to do that, 1129 00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 19: then maybe you need to be banned for life. 1130 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:53,440 Speaker 2: But that's another wrinkle. 1131 00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:58,440 Speaker 19: Good good point, But again I think lifetime ban for 1132 00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,520 Speaker 19: guys that are, you know, casually betting on other sports 1133 01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 19: per apps, I don't even think they should be banned 1134 01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,360 Speaker 19: at all or punished at all. If you're betting on 1135 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 19: another sport all together, that you know you're not having 1136 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 19: any effect on the sport that you play true, see 1137 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 19: anything wrong with I don't see anything wrong with that. 1138 01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:20,320 Speaker 2: True, but it implies you're all right, thanks a lot, Freddie. 1139 01:00:21,040 --> 01:00:23,560 Speaker 2: Baseball is concerned about those optics because you may have 1140 01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:26,560 Speaker 2: information that gamblers can get a hold of. And the 1141 01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,160 Speaker 2: truth of the matter is it's all about optics. Baseball's 1142 01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:31,640 Speaker 2: concerned about their image. We all know what happened to 1143 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,480 Speaker 2: nineteen nineteen Black Sox scandal. If anybody walks into a 1144 01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 2: park and doubts the outcome of a game, that's where 1145 01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 2: baseball starts to get very worried. Tony in Miami, how 1146 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:43,520 Speaker 2: are you, Tony? What's up tonight? Man? 1147 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:45,560 Speaker 5: Hey, Bernie, how's it going. 1148 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:48,200 Speaker 20: I just so you know, I don't have anything under gambling, 1149 01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:55,000 Speaker 20: but I would advise Purly to pack his bags and 1150 01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:58,680 Speaker 20: get his further away from La as possible. He could 1151 01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:03,040 Speaker 20: coach in the NBA. This would be the situation in 1152 01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:08,040 Speaker 20: my opinion, La Queen James is hijacked that organization to 1153 01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 20: the foremostland, and I guarantee he's turned it into the 1154 01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 20: real Housewives of Forum County and Jerry bus If Jerry 1155 01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:23,280 Speaker 20: Buds would have somehow, you know, rose from the grave, 1156 01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:26,120 Speaker 20: he jumped back in it's really sad. I'm actually a 1157 01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:31,040 Speaker 20: Pistons fan. I know you were, you mentioned, you mentioned you, 1158 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:33,360 Speaker 20: you know, were in the heyday, But as a kid, 1159 01:01:33,400 --> 01:01:39,360 Speaker 20: I kind of grew up with micro Wave and James Kelly. Yeah, 1160 01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:42,800 Speaker 20: and so I mean I have I have a special 1161 01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:45,960 Speaker 20: place in my heart for those Lakers. And then you know, 1162 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:49,440 Speaker 20: obviously I saw Shaq and Kobe, and I think to 1163 01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:53,000 Speaker 20: have a conversation about the Lakers, it just in terms 1164 01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 20: of Hurley, no, but to have an honest conversation about 1165 01:01:57,520 --> 01:02:00,840 Speaker 20: what's been going on the last five six years, you've 1166 01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 20: got to really zero in on the COVID year and 1167 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:06,920 Speaker 20: a lot of people overlooked at and there's a lot 1168 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 20: of confusion there. And once you figure that out, I 1169 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:13,680 Speaker 20: think you'll be able to like really put the pieces 1170 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:17,920 Speaker 20: in order. In my opinion, because in my honest opinion, 1171 01:02:18,320 --> 01:02:20,600 Speaker 20: I didn't count anything in twenty twenty. You don't have 1172 01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:23,400 Speaker 20: You don't play fifty games in baseball and call that 1173 01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:26,800 Speaker 20: a world championship. That's my opinion, But other people think 1174 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 20: I'm a purist. I don't think the Lakers won anything. 1175 01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:33,600 Speaker 20: I don't think Lebron won anything. So I mean, that's 1176 01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:36,000 Speaker 20: that's how I see it, but you know, other people 1177 01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:39,040 Speaker 20: see other things and they say, well, they see what 1178 01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:42,760 Speaker 20: they want to. And I think, what's funny about that situation. 1179 01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:46,360 Speaker 20: It's kind of been like a dichonomy for his whole career. 1180 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 20: It's always been kind of grain shading. Nothing's been you know, consecrated. 1181 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:53,800 Speaker 20: You know, the times he's won, there's always been some 1182 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 20: type of coveyat to it, you know. 1183 01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,760 Speaker 5: So I know you got other callers, I can let 1184 01:02:58,800 --> 01:02:59,040 Speaker 5: you go. 1185 01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,040 Speaker 2: We'll hear from me next week.

The last Cultler was 1235 01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:43,800 Speaker 18: talking about kind of Lebron not having I'm kind of 1236 01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:47,360 Speaker 18: the asterisk on the COVID season, which I agree with, 1237 01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:50,600 Speaker 18: but what he did in Cleveland when he came back 1238 01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:51,280 Speaker 18: the second one. 1239 01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:54,320 Speaker 2: I appreciate your perspective, Larry, and You're always welcome. But 1240 01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:56,400 Speaker 2: what I really kind of want to get to is, 1241 01:05:56,440 --> 01:05:59,480 Speaker 2: if you hone it down, we funnel this down to 1242 01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:02,760 Speaker 2: the Lakers. Are you touched on something very important? The 1243 01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,800 Speaker 2: Lakers are an organization of eras, and I know because 1244 01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:08,800 Speaker 2: I worked there. So we're about to enter potentially a 1245 01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:13,000 Speaker 2: new era when Lebron leaves. Do you advise Danny Hurley 1246 01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:15,680 Speaker 2: to take this job or not? That's the main thing. 1247 01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:17,479 Speaker 18: I want no right right now, And I was gonna 1248 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:18,840 Speaker 18: get to I was, I know, I was. 1249 01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:22,320 Speaker 11: I want people to understand you.

I'll be right to the point. 1252 01:06:28,800 --> 01:06:30,960 Speaker 18: I have nothing against Danny Hurley. I think he'd be 1253 01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:35,400 Speaker 18: a fabulous coach. I personally would think that, and I've 1254 01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:37,960 Speaker 18: been saying this since he left when he was fired 1255 01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,840 Speaker 18: from Golden State. I think Mark Jackson, Mama, there goes 1256 01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:44,280 Speaker 18: that man would be an excellent decision by the Lakers. 1257 01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:46,520 Speaker 18: And I've been wanting him to go there for many, 1258 01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:47,280 Speaker 18: many years since. 1259 01:06:47,320 --> 01:06:49,280 Speaker 2: So would you advise Danny Hurley? Yes or no? 1260 01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:52,800 Speaker 18: I would say no, what to Danny Hurley? But fine, 1261 01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:55,360 Speaker 18: if if that's if he wants the job, go ahead 1262 01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:55,920 Speaker 18: and go for it. 1263 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:58,200 Speaker 2: Well, they're going to offer to him.

You know, 1274 01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:19,160 Speaker 18: he's the next player. 1275 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:21,320 Speaker 2: That no one's winning with this team. Man.

Ye. 1464 01:16:44,160 --> 01:16:44,760 Speaker 2: Yes, So. 1465 01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:50,240 Speaker 14: If he can get a five year deal, five year guaranteed, 1466 01:16:50,720 --> 01:16:53,400 Speaker 14: he's not taking this for one or two years, Lebron 1467 01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:56,800 Speaker 14: is going to be gone and you're still there. 1468 01:16:57,400 --> 01:16:59,439 Speaker 2: But the thing about it, so is that a yes? Sam? 1469 01:16:59,479 --> 01:17:03,760 Speaker 2: Are you saying yes? I'm saying yes, Okay, I accept that. 1470 01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:06,679 Speaker 2: But here's the deal. They just tried that with Darvin 1471 01:17:06,760 --> 01:17:09,360 Speaker 2: Ham and go ahead, you got the floor. But the 1472 01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:12,000 Speaker 2: Lakers can say one thing and do another. He may 1473 01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:14,120 Speaker 2: not last five years because they're weird. 1474 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:14,400 Speaker 14: Man. 1475 01:17:14,479 --> 01:17:16,720 Speaker 5: Go ahead, Oh, I agree with you on that. 1476 01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:18,760 Speaker 14: But if they do let him go, you've still got 1477 01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:21,160 Speaker 14: that guaranteed five years. You're still getting your money. And 1478 01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 14: there's not a college in the country that you couldn't 1479 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:24,800 Speaker 14: step back into and say, all right, I'm back in 1480 01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:25,519 Speaker 14: the college again. 1481 01:17:25,720 --> 01:17:27,679 Speaker 2: Well that's that you're not wrong. They're all right, Sam, 1482 01:17:27,720 --> 01:17:31,040 Speaker 2: appreciate you. Bud Kent and Texas, you got the last 1483 01:17:31,040 --> 01:17:32,360 Speaker 2: word on this whole matter. Tonight. 1484 01:17:33,680 --> 01:17:37,800 Speaker 23: Hey, Barney, I'm gonna make this real quick. No, her 1485 01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:40,639 Speaker 23: should not take that job and I'll tell you why, 1486 01:17:40,680 --> 01:17:45,400 Speaker 23: because it doesn't matter if he wins or lose, because 1487 01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:47,800 Speaker 23: the only way he's going to get credit for it 1488 01:17:47,880 --> 01:17:48,679 Speaker 23: is if he loses. 1489 01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:49,479 Speaker 5: Because if they. 1490 01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:52,519 Speaker 2: Win, that's right, you got so right. 1491 01:17:52,439 --> 01:17:57,760 Speaker 23: Dude, Ego maniacs there and Lebron and ad and if 1492 01:17:57,760 --> 01:18:00,280 Speaker 23: they're not getting the credit for them winning, they're going 1493 01:18:00,320 --> 01:18:03,840 Speaker 23: to get him fired anyway. And as far as the 1494 01:18:04,320 --> 01:18:09,840 Speaker 23: gambling knows, yeah, I'm going to say until major League 1495 01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:16,240 Speaker 23: Baseball bands beer, they shouldn't be getting in doing these 1496 01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:21,400 Speaker 23: lifetime bands for people gambling on sport because they're making 1497 01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:25,400 Speaker 23: money off of these advertisements and all this stuff for these. 1498 01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:29,439 Speaker 2: Gambling true, that is true. 1499 01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:32,240 Speaker 23: Until they stop making money off it, How can you 1500 01:18:32,320 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 23: tell your your players not to do it? 1501 01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:40,800 Speaker 2: Well, okay, thanks a lot, appreciate you can't You're always welcome. Look, 1502 01:18:40,880 --> 01:18:44,120 Speaker 2: I think we have a double edged sword here because 1503 01:18:44,160 --> 01:18:49,240 Speaker 2: baseball clearly benefits from the aspect of sports betting and 1504 01:18:49,320 --> 01:18:53,800 Speaker 2: legalized sports betting. It enhances the viewing population, popularity, It 1505 01:18:53,920 --> 01:18:57,400 Speaker 2: certainly allows people to feed into their competitive spirit all 1506 01:18:57,400 --> 01:19:00,240 Speaker 2: the reasons, and people watch more, they watch longer if 1507 01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:03,240 Speaker 2: they've got some action on the game. That's undeniable. They 1508 01:19:03,240 --> 01:19:05,560 Speaker 2: don't want players betting. They don't want players betting on 1509 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:09,200 Speaker 2: their own team. Therein lies the issue, not the concept 1510 01:19:09,200 --> 01:19:12,639 Speaker 2: of sports betting. There in lies the issue. So it's complex. 1511 01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:14,920 Speaker 2: Good stuff tonight by all the callers. The final tally. 1512 01:19:15,680 --> 01:19:19,599 Speaker 2: Eleven people say no, Danny Hurley, don't take the job. 1513 01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:22,719 Speaker 2: Three say yes. I'm on the no side. I explained 1514 01:19:22,720 --> 01:19:24,800 Speaker 2: why earlier top of the hour. I got to get 1515 01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:26,439 Speaker 2: Kevin in, I got to get to E and N. 1516 01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:28,400 Speaker 2: I want to give them their day in court here. 1517 01:19:28,439 --> 01:19:32,559 Speaker 2: So and just to make my point, to reiterate my point, 1518 01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:35,559 Speaker 2: I think it's a circus act there, Chuck Daly said, 1519 01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:38,120 Speaker 2: it's all about managing an adult daycare center. Danny Hurley 1520 01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:40,599 Speaker 2: is a teacher, he's got it made in Yukon, He's 1521 01:19:40,640 --> 01:19:42,600 Speaker 2: going for a three peat, and who really wants to 1522 01:19:42,640 --> 01:19:46,360 Speaker 2: deal with this brownie situation? Really, you can say what 1523 01:19:46,520 --> 01:19:48,840 Speaker 2: you can, say what you want, but when reality hits 1524 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:51,439 Speaker 2: the road and it unfolds a living color, it just 1525 01:19:51,479 --> 01:19:54,200 Speaker 2: does not feel like it's going to be a good situation. 1526 01:19:54,680 --> 01:19:56,280 Speaker 2: I want to thank all the callers, y'all did a 1527 01:19:56,280 --> 01:19:59,960 Speaker 2: great job.

But we got 1540 01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:42,800 Speaker 2: to get the crew in here. This Dandy Hurley thing 1541 01:20:42,920 --> 01:20:47,000 Speaker 2: is a story that I'm following with great interest, and 1542 01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:49,559 Speaker 2: I want to get both Kevin's and Ian's. We'll start 1543 01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:52,840 Speaker 2: with Kevin. Kevin, I want to come in from left field. 1544 01:20:53,479 --> 01:20:57,680 Speaker 2: I have some sources that told me part of the 1545 01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:02,040 Speaker 2: reason that the g the JJ Reddick aspect of this 1546 01:21:02,479 --> 01:21:05,240 Speaker 2: seems to have gone awry is because a couple of 1547 01:21:05,280 --> 01:21:08,519 Speaker 2: assistants he had designs on bringing in Sam Cassell and 1548 01:21:10,040 --> 01:21:12,599 Speaker 2: James Barrego aren't interested, and he can't really blame him 1549 01:21:12,600 --> 01:21:14,680 Speaker 2: because everyone head coaching jobs as their own. But it 1550 01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 2: leads to the circus. All of a sudden, you pivot 1551 01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:19,920 Speaker 2: to Danny early and now this so, based on everything 1552 01:21:19,960 --> 01:21:21,920 Speaker 2: you've observed, what are your thoughts and at the end 1553 01:21:21,960 --> 01:21:24,400 Speaker 2: of the day, do you think Danny Hurley should take 1554 01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:25,040 Speaker 2: the job or not? 1555 01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:27,040 Speaker 6: Well, first of all, that would make sense. 1556 01:21:27,120 --> 01:21:29,160 Speaker 7: You know, Brego and Sam Cassell were two guys who 1557 01:21:29,160 --> 01:21:31,840 Speaker 7: are named as targets for the head coaching position for 1558 01:21:31,880 --> 01:21:34,320 Speaker 7: the Lakers. So to say that you basically take second 1559 01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:37,240 Speaker 7: third place to be assistance for JJ Reddick, who has 1560 01:21:37,320 --> 01:21:40,200 Speaker 7: zero experience coaching at all at any level. I will 1561 01:21:40,200 --> 01:21:43,639 Speaker 7: certainly understand their their reservations and wanting to be assistance 1562 01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:46,880 Speaker 7: for him. I'll answer the question first with my advice 1563 01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:49,040 Speaker 7: as to whether or not I'd want Hurley to take 1564 01:21:49,080 --> 01:21:51,760 Speaker 7: the job, and I'll say no for a couple of 1565 01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:54,640 Speaker 7: different reasons. One, I think it's very difficult for a 1566 01:21:54,720 --> 01:21:58,960 Speaker 7: college basketball coach, uber successful or not, to transition into 1567 01:21:58,960 --> 01:22:02,320 Speaker 7: the NBA for a what is perceived at least to 1568 01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:04,320 Speaker 7: be We can debate whether or not the Lakers are 1569 01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:05,040 Speaker 7: a title contender. 1570 01:22:05,080 --> 01:22:05,840 Speaker 6: They probably aren't. 1571 01:22:05,840 --> 01:22:08,760 Speaker 7: Well what's perceived to be a win now situation, it 1572 01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:12,240 Speaker 7: usually doesn't work out. The biggest example I can think 1573 01:22:12,320 --> 01:22:14,840 Speaker 7: of off the top of my head was Billy Donovan. Now 1574 01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:17,120 Speaker 7: he was some years removed from the back to back 1575 01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:20,640 Speaker 7: national championships at Florida, but remember he left Florida to 1576 01:22:20,720 --> 01:22:23,320 Speaker 7: go to Oklahoma City after they got rid of Scott Brooks. 1577 01:22:23,520 --> 01:22:25,479 Speaker 7: They have been to the NBA Finals, I believe two 1578 01:22:25,560 --> 01:22:28,639 Speaker 7: years prior, and they kept winning. They were a good team. 1579 01:22:28,680 --> 01:22:30,760 Speaker 7: They made the postseason, but it certainly didn't work out. 1580 01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:33,559 Speaker 7: It's just really difficult to try to bring in a 1581 01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:36,400 Speaker 7: new way of doing things, new regime with a bunch 1582 01:22:36,439 --> 01:22:39,120 Speaker 7: of veteran players who are already set in their ways, 1583 01:22:39,160 --> 01:22:41,040 Speaker 7: who have already had a little bit of success in 1584 01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:44,160 Speaker 7: winning before. That's very difficult. Now if this. 1585 01:22:44,080 --> 01:22:47,000 Speaker 2: Will hold that thought, because I'm in agreement, we didn't 1586 01:22:47,040 --> 01:22:49,200 Speaker 2: touch on that aspect of lot Cavin. In terms of 1587 01:22:49,200 --> 01:22:52,200 Speaker 2: the difficulty, the only guy that's ever done is Hilarry Brown. 1588 01:22:52,760 --> 01:22:55,200 Speaker 2: But the angle I was looking at, if you look 1589 01:22:55,240 --> 01:22:58,920 Speaker 2: at you know, you're a husband, you're a father. It's 1590 01:22:58,920 --> 01:23:00,559 Speaker 2: got to take a hell of a lot to uproot 1591 01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:02,800 Speaker 2: three thousand miles away when you got a good gig, 1592 01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:05,280 Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. The angle I'm looking at is 1593 01:23:05,600 --> 01:23:09,479 Speaker 2: why would Danny Hurley turn his life into upheaval on 1594 01:23:09,560 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 2: a wink and of promise when he's already a legend 1595 01:23:12,920 --> 01:23:15,599 Speaker 2: where he's a So from Danny, I'm going to agreement 1596 01:23:15,600 --> 01:23:19,599 Speaker 2: with you, these things don't work typically, Yeah, but from 1597 01:23:19,720 --> 01:23:24,519 Speaker 2: Danny Hurley's standpoint, his thoughts and would you advise him 1598 01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:27,000 Speaker 2: this lifestyle change and what would entail? 1599 01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:28,840 Speaker 6: Right, So that was gonna be my second point. 1600 01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:31,479 Speaker 7: First was a general sense in situations like this, now 1601 01:23:31,520 --> 01:23:34,720 Speaker 7: specifically to Danny Hurley. Now we'll say, you can make 1602 01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:36,920 Speaker 7: the argument, what more does he have to prove? What 1603 01:23:37,040 --> 01:23:39,080 Speaker 7: is the likelihood that he's going to win a third 1604 01:23:39,080 --> 01:23:42,559 Speaker 7: consecutive national championship. It's not all that likely, and the 1605 01:23:42,600 --> 01:23:45,240 Speaker 7: fact that he won back to back national championships even 1606 01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:47,920 Speaker 7: that to anominally it's happened three times since nineteen ninety like, 1607 01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:49,679 Speaker 7: this is not a common occurrence. 1608 01:23:49,880 --> 01:23:52,599 Speaker 6: So the odds are against him being able to do that. 1609 01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:54,559 Speaker 7: Now, whether or not he can continue with the success 1610 01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:56,920 Speaker 7: of the program, I think that's fairly obvious. I'm sure 1611 01:23:56,960 --> 01:24:00,760 Speaker 7: he will and the chances that he's gonna to continue 1612 01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 7: to have great success and not necessarily get fired because 1613 01:24:03,800 --> 01:24:06,040 Speaker 7: we look, one thing we've seen. We've seen coaches win 1614 01:24:06,160 --> 01:24:09,320 Speaker 7: championships and get the boot fairly quickly afterwards. The shine 1615 01:24:09,360 --> 01:24:12,240 Speaker 7: falls off pretty quickly in some situations. Look no further 1616 01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:15,639 Speaker 7: than Yukon before Kevin out championship and he was out 1617 01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:18,479 Speaker 7: what two three years later, So these things do happen. 1618 01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:20,920 Speaker 7: So I do think there's an element of striking when 1619 01:24:20,920 --> 01:24:23,240 Speaker 7: the iron is hot. The issue is the iron is 1620 01:24:23,280 --> 01:24:25,680 Speaker 7: not going to cool down in one or two off seasons. 1621 01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:28,240 Speaker 7: The chances are Yukon's probably still gonna make the tournament, 1622 01:24:28,360 --> 01:24:30,600 Speaker 7: still gonna make it into the second weekend, make it 1623 01:24:30,640 --> 01:24:32,760 Speaker 7: to the Elite eight. He's still going to be the 1624 01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:35,000 Speaker 7: hottest name, if not, you know, one of the hottest names, 1625 01:24:35,040 --> 01:24:37,679 Speaker 7: if not the hottest name in college basketball, for any 1626 01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:40,360 Speaker 7: college job that he wants or potentially any NBA job 1627 01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:42,479 Speaker 7: that he wants over the next couple of years. So, 1628 01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:45,360 Speaker 7: with that being said, is this the right job at 1629 01:24:45,360 --> 01:24:47,200 Speaker 7: the right time? And the answer for that is no. 1630 01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:50,519 Speaker 7: With Lebron, you mentioned the specter of Lebron James looming 1631 01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:53,639 Speaker 7: over your head, with Anthony Davison there, with the all 1632 01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:56,479 Speaker 7: the politics going on with the Laker front office situation 1633 01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:59,720 Speaker 7: is just not conducive to success. It's not worth the 1634 01:24:59,800 --> 01:25:02,559 Speaker 7: ris of uprooting your family to your point to come 1635 01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:05,360 Speaker 7: to a situation like this. Honestly, the best situation for 1636 01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:07,760 Speaker 7: him would be like what Oklahoma City would have if 1637 01:25:07,760 --> 01:25:09,320 Speaker 7: he was Mike Diagno and it. 1638 01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:12,240 Speaker 6: Was a young team yes that was growing. 1639 01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:15,200 Speaker 7: That a roster that he can actually coach up and cultivate, 1640 01:25:15,680 --> 01:25:17,639 Speaker 7: that would make a lot more sense than a roster 1641 01:25:17,800 --> 01:25:20,560 Speaker 7: like the Lakers right now, who are in semi transition. 1642 01:25:20,880 --> 01:25:22,600 Speaker 7: They kind of want to win now, they kind of 1643 01:25:22,600 --> 01:25:24,280 Speaker 7: want to build for the future. They don't really know 1644 01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:26,519 Speaker 7: what they're doing, and that's even more difficult to do 1645 01:25:26,560 --> 01:25:30,519 Speaker 7: when you have someone with the aura, with the presence 1646 01:25:30,520 --> 01:25:33,679 Speaker 7: that Lebron James has. So for the for those reasons, 1647 01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:36,160 Speaker 7: I would advise him not to take the Laker job, 1648 01:25:36,200 --> 01:25:38,640 Speaker 7: but I would say definitely keep your options open at 1649 01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:40,400 Speaker 7: going to the NBA, because I do think at a 1650 01:25:40,439 --> 01:25:43,160 Speaker 7: certain point you do have a ceiling at the college level. 1651 01:25:44,520 --> 01:25:47,280 Speaker 2: All duly noted ian your thoughts. 1652 01:25:49,479 --> 01:25:52,480 Speaker 24: So, yeah, I guess, I guess starting with with Hurley. 1653 01:25:53,439 --> 01:25:56,400 Speaker 24: I guess I'm in the minority here. I would take 1654 01:25:56,439 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 24: it if I were him, and I like the way 1655 01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:02,320 Speaker 24: you guys are it. And it's not that I necessarily 1656 01:26:02,360 --> 01:26:04,040 Speaker 24: disagree with anything you guys are saying. 1657 01:26:04,160 --> 01:26:06,479 Speaker 2: It's okay, I think. I think in order to have 1658 01:26:06,960 --> 01:26:11,320 Speaker 2: a fruitful conversation, Uh, there has to be some disagreement. 1659 01:26:11,320 --> 01:26:14,720 Speaker 2: Of course, I'm cool with your answer. Tell us why 1660 01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:18,760 Speaker 2: tell us, you know, break down the cost benefit analysis 1661 01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:22,679 Speaker 2: of you know, he knows what he's got now versus 1662 01:26:22,720 --> 01:26:24,599 Speaker 2: what he'd be moving to, and you got to include 1663 01:26:24,640 --> 01:26:25,439 Speaker 2: his wife in the mix. 1664 01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:28,040 Speaker 25: No, I know, and you do, and that's valid. 1665 01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:31,959 Speaker 24: But if you're gonna uproot and move your family anywhere, 1666 01:26:32,200 --> 01:26:36,759 Speaker 24: is is Southern California, not you know, the top place 1667 01:26:36,800 --> 01:26:37,240 Speaker 24: to do that. 1668 01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:39,439 Speaker 2: Sure it's a great place, but but if you're from 1669 01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:41,240 Speaker 2: Jersey City, you may not see it that way. No. 1670 01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:43,920 Speaker 24: Of course, of course, it's uprooting your family to go 1671 01:26:43,960 --> 01:26:46,360 Speaker 24: anywhere is a whole thing, and it's a big move. 1672 01:26:46,400 --> 01:26:48,880 Speaker 24: But if you're going like if he at some point 1673 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:51,800 Speaker 24: wants to take an NBA job and the Los Angeles 1674 01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:55,120 Speaker 24: Lakers job is open right now and he's their top target, 1675 01:26:55,520 --> 01:27:01,160 Speaker 24: I don't understand why it's not. I don't understand why 1676 01:27:01,240 --> 01:27:03,160 Speaker 24: he wouldn't take it because he's going after a three 1677 01:27:03,160 --> 01:27:06,200 Speaker 24: pet here at Yukon. But it's one of the most 1678 01:27:06,200 --> 01:27:09,479 Speaker 24: appealing jobs, not only in the NBA, in sports. And 1679 01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:12,479 Speaker 24: I get that, like right now, the specific situation with 1680 01:27:12,520 --> 01:27:14,960 Speaker 24: the Lakers, but he's gonna be the coach well passed 1681 01:27:14,960 --> 01:27:16,000 Speaker 24: when Lebron James. 1682 01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:19,599 Speaker 2: He is in mind, that's theoretical. They're on their seventh 1683 01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:20,439 Speaker 2: coach now and. 1684 01:27:20,479 --> 01:27:23,040 Speaker 24: The fourth, and I get that, but this is a 1685 01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:26,479 Speaker 24: different situation. This, like, this isn't Luke walt the This 1686 01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:29,439 Speaker 24: isn't This isn't Luke Walton who just you know, had 1687 01:27:29,479 --> 01:27:31,120 Speaker 24: a good run with the Warriors and got a job. 1688 01:27:31,160 --> 01:27:33,400 Speaker 24: This isn't Darvin Ham who was an assistant coach and 1689 01:27:33,800 --> 01:27:36,920 Speaker 24: could become something. This is Dan Hurley, who is coming 1690 01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:39,519 Speaker 24: off back to back NCAA Championship wins. 1691 01:27:39,560 --> 01:27:41,240 Speaker 25: This is a different kind of coach. 1692 01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:45,760 Speaker 24: Based on that, a longer leash, Yes, definitely, and he 1693 01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:48,360 Speaker 24: wants the challenge. Like what everyone's saying, the Thunder, You know, 1694 01:27:48,640 --> 01:27:50,400 Speaker 24: it's not just you guys saying this. It's a great 1695 01:27:50,400 --> 01:27:52,559 Speaker 24: take that the Thunder would be a better situation for 1696 01:27:52,640 --> 01:27:55,400 Speaker 24: him or some a team like that that's younger makes sense. 1697 01:27:55,840 --> 01:27:58,599 Speaker 24: He's the guy who wants challenges like this. The fact 1698 01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:01,200 Speaker 24: that there's so many people looking at this and saying 1699 01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:03,280 Speaker 24: this is not the ideal time for him to step in. 1700 01:28:03,360 --> 01:28:04,880 Speaker 25: I feel like he's the kind of guy. He's like 1701 01:28:04,920 --> 01:28:05,519 Speaker 25: Jim Harbaugh. 1702 01:28:05,560 --> 01:28:06,920 Speaker 24: He's the kind of guy who would look at it 1703 01:28:07,360 --> 01:28:09,120 Speaker 24: and be like, you know what, I will I'll take 1704 01:28:09,160 --> 01:28:09,679 Speaker 24: the challenge. 1705 01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:11,439 Speaker 25: I think I can do it. I think if anyone 1706 01:28:11,479 --> 01:28:12,120 Speaker 25: can do it, it's me. 1707 01:28:12,320 --> 01:28:15,000 Speaker 24: And and honestly, something else that isn't really being said, 1708 01:28:15,400 --> 01:28:18,439 Speaker 24: as long as you have Lebron James, you have a 1709 01:28:18,520 --> 01:28:19,479 Speaker 24: chance of winning the title. 1710 01:28:19,520 --> 01:28:20,240 Speaker 25: I get that he's old. 1711 01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:22,160 Speaker 2: I think I think the fact that he's there at 1712 01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:24,639 Speaker 2: this stage in his career is a complete negative. They're 1713 01:28:24,680 --> 01:28:26,920 Speaker 2: winning nothing with him. Go ahead, you got the last word. 1714 01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:29,560 Speaker 24: No, no, And that's valid. But I think at the 1715 01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:31,479 Speaker 24: end of the day, I just disagree. I think he's 1716 01:28:31,520 --> 01:28:33,479 Speaker 24: still one of the top players in the league and 1717 01:28:33,560 --> 01:28:36,400 Speaker 24: capable of winning a championship, and Dan Hurley is a 1718 01:28:36,439 --> 01:28:38,120 Speaker 24: good enough coach to do it with him. 1719 01:28:38,160 --> 01:28:39,599 Speaker 25: So that's my take on it. 1720 01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:41,599 Speaker 2: All right, Well, he'd have to take the same roster. 1721 01:28:41,720 --> 01:28:43,680 Speaker 2: Basically they're going to have if he opts back in 1722 01:28:43,720 --> 01:28:47,040 Speaker 2: with fifty one million, and I mean, it'd be beyond 1723 01:28:47,040 --> 01:28:51,200 Speaker 2: a miracle, the banning of players for a lifetime. Kevin figures, 1724 01:28:51,280 --> 01:28:52,759 Speaker 2: is this what needs to be done? 1725 01:28:53,040 --> 01:28:55,680 Speaker 7: Or thoughts, well, yeah, I don't know what the other 1726 01:28:55,720 --> 01:28:58,479 Speaker 7: option would be. That this is something that's been taboo forever. 1727 01:28:58,560 --> 01:29:00,519 Speaker 7: We go back to the p role situation. It's and 1728 01:29:00,640 --> 01:29:03,880 Speaker 7: especially if you're talking about betting on your team or 1729 01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:05,960 Speaker 7: against your team in a game that you actually are 1730 01:29:06,000 --> 01:29:09,879 Speaker 7: participating in. Uh, there's no excuse for that. You absolutely 1731 01:29:09,880 --> 01:29:11,680 Speaker 7: know what the rules are going in. I know one 1732 01:29:11,680 --> 01:29:13,120 Speaker 7: of the college says, you have to sit down and 1733 01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:16,760 Speaker 7: talk to all the players they do all thats, go 1734 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:19,400 Speaker 7: through all of these situations with them, and tell them exactly, 1735 01:29:19,520 --> 01:29:23,440 Speaker 7: exactly and explicitly what you can and cannot do. So Yeah, unfortunately, 1736 01:29:23,680 --> 01:29:25,599 Speaker 7: to take to take the term out of somebody else's 1737 01:29:25,600 --> 01:29:27,680 Speaker 7: mouthful called on the show last Hour, you got to. 1738 01:29:27,680 --> 01:29:29,360 Speaker 6: Give them a death penalty when it comes to this. 1739 01:29:29,479 --> 01:29:32,200 Speaker 7: And you know now that I guess the key situation 1740 01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:34,439 Speaker 7: here will be if it was a major player, because 1741 01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:36,960 Speaker 7: this is kind of a fringe you know player, If 1742 01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:38,639 Speaker 7: there is like a star player that ends up doing 1743 01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:40,320 Speaker 7: something like this, the heads are really going to roll. 1744 01:29:40,320 --> 01:29:42,840 Speaker 7: But ultimately, you know, this is something that has to 1745 01:29:42,920 --> 01:29:44,640 Speaker 7: be done because you can't have the integrity of the 1746 01:29:44,640 --> 01:29:46,719 Speaker 7: sport come into question. And this is the slippery slope 1747 01:29:46,800 --> 01:29:49,200 Speaker 7: argument that a lot of people had when sports gambling 1748 01:29:49,320 --> 01:29:51,519 Speaker 7: became legal legal on the federal level. 1749 01:29:52,479 --> 01:29:54,800 Speaker 2: Pretty difficult to disagree with any of that, Kevin. And 1750 01:29:54,840 --> 01:29:56,280 Speaker 2: before I get to e and I just got a 1751 01:29:56,280 --> 01:29:59,240 Speaker 2: tweet from someone named Harry says Bernie, there was always 1752 01:29:59,240 --> 01:30:01,080 Speaker 2: a reason, that's for what's betting was kept out of 1753 01:30:01,080 --> 01:30:03,880 Speaker 2: the locker room. Players betting on their own sports only 1754 01:30:03,920 --> 01:30:06,559 Speaker 2: a matter of time. So we hear about an athlete 1755 01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:09,080 Speaker 2: who gets into trouble financially and throws a sporting event 1756 01:30:09,640 --> 01:30:12,360 Speaker 2: that they are participating in. We already had that with 1757 01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:13,120 Speaker 2: Johntay Porter. 1758 01:30:13,320 --> 01:30:13,880 Speaker 6: Sure did it. 1759 01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:17,240 Speaker 2: It's happening now. As a matter of fact. One of 1760 01:30:17,280 --> 01:30:19,360 Speaker 2: the reasons I dove into this topic today is it 1761 01:30:19,400 --> 01:30:24,120 Speaker 2: was reported Thursday that there were two additional players charged 1762 01:30:24,120 --> 01:30:27,479 Speaker 2: in this betting scandal that prompted the NBA to ban 1763 01:30:27,640 --> 01:30:32,360 Speaker 2: Johntay Porter for life. So two other guys, Timothy McCormick 1764 01:30:32,640 --> 01:30:36,519 Speaker 2: and malmood Mola and by the way, there's other players 1765 01:30:36,520 --> 01:30:40,280 Speaker 2: that are being investigated. So this is a this is 1766 01:30:40,320 --> 01:30:43,160 Speaker 2: a very fluid situation. Ian your thoughts on banning players 1767 01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:46,799 Speaker 2: for life and the relationship between sports betting and major leagues. 1768 01:30:46,840 --> 01:30:49,000 Speaker 24: Now, I just feel like they knew what they were 1769 01:30:49,240 --> 01:30:52,680 Speaker 24: getting into. There have been so many different examples at 1770 01:30:52,680 --> 01:30:56,400 Speaker 24: this point of guys, I agree, being suspended, you know, 1771 01:30:56,800 --> 01:30:59,960 Speaker 24: and now we've kind of passed into territory where they're 1772 01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:04,160 Speaker 24: there's enough examples like that, there's enough precedent set where 1773 01:31:04,240 --> 01:31:06,720 Speaker 24: I feel like it's it's completely warranted to ban them 1774 01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:08,280 Speaker 24: for life if they're still doing it. 1775 01:31:09,479 --> 01:31:12,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, you guys are right. I mean, part of the 1776 01:31:12,200 --> 01:31:17,000 Speaker 2: other the other aspect of that question being answered is 1777 01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:20,080 Speaker 2: the law is supposed to be a teacher, and if 1778 01:31:20,080 --> 01:31:23,439 Speaker 2: people see guys getting banned for life, maybe that will 1779 01:31:23,800 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 2: cause them to finally, uh, you know, take pause and 1780 01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:31,680 Speaker 2: realize the gravity of the situation. Although so far it 1781 01:31:31,720 --> 01:31:33,800 Speaker 2: still hasn't, you know, necessarily been the case. 1782 01:31:34,080 --> 01:31:35,160 Speaker 25: I'm just curious. 1783 01:31:35,240 --> 01:31:39,439 Speaker 24: I'm really wondering if it's a if these have been 1784 01:31:39,479 --> 01:31:42,559 Speaker 24: really low level athlete, you know, low level guys, if 1785 01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:44,920 Speaker 24: it's again you know, obviously Otani was a big name, 1786 01:31:44,960 --> 01:31:47,639 Speaker 24: and then you know, nothing's been proven there. But if 1787 01:31:47,680 --> 01:31:49,639 Speaker 24: it is a really big name, I wonder how people's 1788 01:31:49,640 --> 01:31:52,800 Speaker 24: opinions on this matter change, you know, because no one 1789 01:31:52,880 --> 01:31:53,320 Speaker 24: wants to. 1790 01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:55,439 Speaker 2: Ban is a pretty big name. 1791 01:31:55,680 --> 01:31:58,920 Speaker 24: No, you mean a current player, a current player? What 1792 01:31:58,920 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 24: what if when Minyama is doing that stuff? 1793 01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:04,920 Speaker 2: You know, it's an excellent point that boy, the legal 1794 01:32:05,800 --> 01:32:08,960 Speaker 2: then there you go, there you go. That's a great 1795 01:32:09,040 --> 01:32:10,880 Speaker 2: great that they ended on that one. I like that 1796 01:32:11,040 --> 01:32:17,320 Speaker 2: because so far right other than well, look, the point 1797 01:32:17,360 --> 01:32:20,960 Speaker 2: is duly noted. What are you going to do if 1798 01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:23,760 Speaker 2: you know, if Mookie betts his names? I'm joking, of course, 1799 01:32:24,040 --> 01:32:27,400 Speaker 2: you know. Uh that that one left me tongue tied, 1800 01:32:27,479 --> 01:32:29,720 Speaker 2: because if if you really think about it, boy, you know, 1801 01:32:29,920 --> 01:32:33,280 Speaker 2: it's an equal law apply across the board, or or 1802 01:32:33,320 --> 01:32:35,360 Speaker 2: you know, is there preferential treatment? I don't think. I 1803 01:32:35,360 --> 01:32:38,160 Speaker 2: don't think baseball knows what did I really think they're 1804 01:32:38,720 --> 01:32:41,840 Speaker 2: They're as confused as I've ever been. All Right, coming 1805 01:32:41,960 --> 01:32:45,639 Speaker 2: up eight months ago, on my show, I had a 1806 01:32:45,680 --> 01:32:49,479 Speaker 2: commentary about a gentleman who I'm a big fan of, 1807 01:32:49,520 --> 01:32:54,080 Speaker 2: who burst upon the scene, Uh and people were attracted 1808 01:32:54,080 --> 01:32:57,000 Speaker 2: to this individual because we don't have royalty in this country. 1809 01:32:57,320 --> 01:33:00,240 Speaker 2: Our athletes and our entertainers are our royalty. So there 1810 01:33:00,280 --> 01:33:03,000 Speaker 2: was a real fascination with this individual. Here's a clue. 1811 01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:05,600 Speaker 2: He's a college football coach. I love the guy, but 1812 01:33:05,680 --> 01:33:07,400 Speaker 2: he ended up four to eight. But where do you 1813 01:33:07,439 --> 01:33:12,160 Speaker 2: hear the parallel between what I said? Then how you 1814 01:33:12,240 --> 01:33:16,400 Speaker 2: might even apply to Caitlin Clark? Now stand by, that's 1815 01:33:16,400 --> 01:33:18,599 Speaker 2: coming up bym Bernie Frattle. We're coming to your life 1816 01:33:18,600 --> 01:33:21,920 Speaker 2: from the Las Vegas Fox Sports Radio tirerat dot com studios. 1817 01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:23,760 Speaker 2: Keep it locked. You're listening to the Bernie Fraddle Show 1818 01:33:23,760 --> 01:33:26,800 Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio. All right, back in the Bernie 1819 01:33:26,840 --> 01:33:29,400 Speaker 2: Fraddle Show, Fox Sports Radio Comedy live from the tarat 1820 01:33:29,479 --> 01:33:34,360 Speaker 2: dot com studios here in a Las Vegas. You know, 1821 01:33:34,880 --> 01:33:37,880 Speaker 2: the circle of life to me is always fascinating. Let's 1822 01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 2: turn the clock back eight months before I do. Obviously, 1823 01:33:43,960 --> 01:33:48,640 Speaker 2: the the number one name in sports circles right now 1824 01:33:48,720 --> 01:33:52,360 Speaker 2: is Caitlin Clark, right, all time leading scorer. She was 1825 01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:54,599 Speaker 2: the number one overall draft pick. She got a shoe 1826 01:33:54,640 --> 01:33:58,200 Speaker 2: deal forty million, and she's getting quote unquote the rookie 1827 01:33:58,240 --> 01:34:01,320 Speaker 2: treatment in the WA and by the way, so it 1828 01:34:01,320 --> 01:34:06,439 Speaker 2: was Angel Reese, but it's a little different for Caitlyn Clark. 1829 01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:09,000 Speaker 2: And I'll lay out why in a second. And by 1830 01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:11,599 Speaker 2: the way, before you know, anybody loses her mind about 1831 01:34:11,720 --> 01:34:15,160 Speaker 2: she's not deserving of any of this. And because she's 1832 01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:19,960 Speaker 2: started slowly, I would remind people most great athletes start slowly. 1833 01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:21,400 Speaker 2: I did a whole feature on that a couple of 1834 01:34:21,400 --> 01:34:23,519 Speaker 2: weeks ago, and I laid out a lot of big names, 1835 01:34:24,160 --> 01:34:26,679 Speaker 2: from Willie Mays to King Grifford. How about Steph Curry. 1836 01:34:27,360 --> 01:34:29,240 Speaker 2: Steph Curry was like one hundred and seventy pounds when 1837 01:34:29,240 --> 01:34:30,439 Speaker 2: he got in the NBA. Now it was like one 1838 01:34:30,479 --> 01:34:33,080 Speaker 2: hundred and ninety. You know, they almost traded him. They 1839 01:34:33,120 --> 01:34:35,679 Speaker 2: were gonna choose Monte Alis overhad but he figured it out. 1840 01:34:35,840 --> 01:34:38,160 Speaker 2: Now we'll see Caitlin Clark has to figure it out. 1841 01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:40,519 Speaker 2: I'm not saying she's going to be the next Steph Curry, 1842 01:34:40,520 --> 01:34:43,800 Speaker 2: but the parallels are there. Oh, by the way, while 1843 01:34:43,800 --> 01:34:47,479 Speaker 2: you're while you are, you know, investing your time on 1844 01:34:47,600 --> 01:34:49,920 Speaker 2: bashing Caitlin Clark. Remember she's the fastest player to one 1845 01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:55,040 Speaker 2: hundred points and fifty rebounds in the history of the WNBA. 1846 01:34:55,080 --> 01:34:57,320 Speaker 2: In their twenty six years and only her and one 1847 01:34:57,360 --> 01:35:00,960 Speaker 2: other person reached one hundred points, fifty rebounds, and fifty 1848 01:35:00,960 --> 01:35:03,520 Speaker 2: assists in their first ten games. The other Sabrina Ionescu. 1849 01:35:04,040 --> 01:35:06,960 Speaker 2: That's just part of the equation. Okay, just tell the 1850 01:35:07,040 --> 01:35:11,439 Speaker 2: whole story. I know she's getting blitzed, she's getting double 1851 01:35:11,439 --> 01:35:14,240 Speaker 2: team she's getting trapped. If you want to follow her 1852 01:35:14,240 --> 01:35:17,120 Speaker 2: hard when she's going to the hole, fine, it's part 1853 01:35:17,120 --> 01:35:20,280 Speaker 2: of the game. But when you body slam someone from 1854 01:35:20,280 --> 01:35:23,559 Speaker 2: behind with an elbow to the back and call him 1855 01:35:23,600 --> 01:35:26,120 Speaker 2: a bac and then deny it in the post game, 1856 01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:28,880 Speaker 2: is that a basketball play? That's a little different, isn't it. 1857 01:35:29,040 --> 01:35:33,280 Speaker 2: That's the ultimate sign of respect. She's in their freaking heads. Now. Look, 1858 01:35:33,320 --> 01:35:35,120 Speaker 2: I'm not predicting she's gonna be a Hall of Fame 1859 01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:37,479 Speaker 2: or anything, but I will say this, eight months ago 1860 01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:39,720 Speaker 2: we had a similar situation. I defended this guy too. 1861 01:35:40,439 --> 01:35:43,600 Speaker 2: I love Deon Sanders, and eight months ago he was 1862 01:35:43,600 --> 01:35:47,439 Speaker 2: the moment's rage. And let's turn back the clock and 1863 01:35:47,479 --> 01:35:49,120 Speaker 2: I want you to listen to what I had to say, 1864 01:35:49,160 --> 01:35:54,400 Speaker 2: because think about inserting the name Caitlin Clark every time 1865 01:35:54,439 --> 01:35:56,439 Speaker 2: you hear Dion Sanders, and see if you don't find 1866 01:35:56,479 --> 01:35:59,160 Speaker 2: the parallel. Let's give it a listen. I want to 1867 01:35:59,200 --> 01:36:02,160 Speaker 2: talk about Dion Sanders for a minute because I'm a 1868 01:36:02,160 --> 01:36:04,800 Speaker 2: big Dion fan and I love what's happening in Colorado, 1869 01:36:04,840 --> 01:36:08,599 Speaker 2: every bit of it, and I'm not shocked that people 1870 01:36:08,640 --> 01:36:13,679 Speaker 2: are triggered. People are triggered by Dion, and I want 1871 01:36:13,680 --> 01:36:15,640 Speaker 2: to touch on a thing or two about Dean so 1872 01:36:15,720 --> 01:36:18,080 Speaker 2: we can maybe please stop the bull junk, which we 1873 01:36:18,160 --> 01:36:24,840 Speaker 2: won't because it slays me to observe that Deann is 1874 01:36:24,880 --> 01:36:27,479 Speaker 2: so polarizing. People are rooting for him to fail or 1875 01:36:27,479 --> 01:36:30,839 Speaker 2: they resent his success. And you all know, the opposite 1876 01:36:30,840 --> 01:36:32,920 Speaker 2: of love is not hate, it's indifference. You have to 1877 01:36:32,960 --> 01:36:35,880 Speaker 2: have that same emotion. There has to be that same 1878 01:36:35,960 --> 01:36:40,280 Speaker 2: level of caring. So people hate Dion, I love Dion. 1879 01:36:41,080 --> 01:36:45,640 Speaker 2: And by the way, it's all about the story. This 1880 01:36:45,720 --> 01:36:48,680 Speaker 2: whole story is riveting, it's captivating, and for some I 1881 01:36:48,760 --> 01:36:51,960 Speaker 2: guess it's maddening. And yeah, that's a you problem. Maybe 1882 01:36:51,960 --> 01:36:55,360 Speaker 2: you're angry because Dion jumped the line, he didn't pay 1883 01:36:55,400 --> 01:36:59,679 Speaker 2: his dues. Other coaches out there are are are railing 1884 01:36:59,680 --> 01:37:02,360 Speaker 2: on him. Okay, it's become a circus act. It'll be 1885 01:37:02,400 --> 01:37:04,880 Speaker 2: a Circus Act in about ten hours from now when 1886 01:37:04,920 --> 01:37:08,080 Speaker 2: they tee it up against Usc and all the cool 1887 01:37:08,080 --> 01:37:09,600 Speaker 2: people will be there because they want to see and 1888 01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:12,880 Speaker 2: be seen. And if you think Diana is merely a loudmouth, 1889 01:37:12,880 --> 01:37:17,480 Speaker 2: shameless self promoter, w You're wrong, okay. And what creates? 1890 01:37:17,880 --> 01:37:19,920 Speaker 2: I know it's against a lot of practice psychology without 1891 01:37:19,960 --> 01:37:23,120 Speaker 2: a license, But what creates is phenomenon. It's quite simple. 1892 01:37:23,680 --> 01:37:26,479 Speaker 2: Most people that grow up, they have dreams of wealth 1893 01:37:26,520 --> 01:37:30,680 Speaker 2: and fame and happiness and style and social influence and 1894 01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:34,040 Speaker 2: so on. They watch fairy tales as a kid. There's 1895 01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:38,639 Speaker 2: a deep seated attraction to heroism in this country. And 1896 01:37:39,400 --> 01:37:42,000 Speaker 2: for some if other people achieve what you do not, 1897 01:37:43,040 --> 01:37:46,080 Speaker 2: then you become very resentful. And that is I think 1898 01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:51,400 Speaker 2: the prevailing attitude toward towards Dion Sanders. And I'm going 1899 01:37:51,439 --> 01:37:55,280 Speaker 2: to defend Dean Sanders. He's not a perfect person, but 1900 01:37:55,400 --> 01:38:00,519 Speaker 2: I believe he's a good person. Travis Hunter, right there, 1901 01:38:00,960 --> 01:38:04,200 Speaker 2: let's get it right there, yend, I said these were 1902 01:38:04,240 --> 01:38:08,040 Speaker 2: my comments last October. Third. You see the parallels. He 1903 01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:11,720 Speaker 2: achieved a status in life that very few can, and 1904 01:38:11,760 --> 01:38:16,640 Speaker 2: so other people are jealous. We elevate people to their 1905 01:38:16,720 --> 01:38:18,600 Speaker 2: highest plateau in life only to tear them down. We 1906 01:38:18,640 --> 01:38:23,839 Speaker 2: do with politicians, certainbody with athletes. And when you consider 1907 01:38:24,880 --> 01:38:27,639 Speaker 2: Dion's meteoric rise and how he built Colorado and everybody 1908 01:38:27,680 --> 01:38:30,160 Speaker 2: wanted to be there, you see the parallel. You come 1909 01:38:30,160 --> 01:38:31,880 Speaker 2: to Las Vegas, you want to see Kaitlyn Clark play, 1910 01:38:31,880 --> 01:38:34,679 Speaker 2: going to pay one hundred ninety seven dollars a ticket? Well, 1911 01:38:34,800 --> 01:38:36,280 Speaker 2: the market speaks. 1912 01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:37,080 Speaker 14: Oh. 1913 01:38:37,120 --> 01:38:39,160 Speaker 2: By the way, she had thirty points Friday night. They 1914 01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:41,519 Speaker 2: won their third game, and you know the schedule makers 1915 01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:44,040 Speaker 2: didn't do them any favor as well. And their first 1916 01:38:44,160 --> 01:38:46,519 Speaker 2: I think eleven twelve games, they played an average game 1917 01:38:46,600 --> 01:38:49,400 Speaker 2: like every one point eight days against the team's best. 1918 01:38:49,640 --> 01:38:51,920 Speaker 2: By the way, Kayler Clark's not exactly surrounded by a 1919 01:38:51,960 --> 01:38:55,160 Speaker 2: bunch of stars either, So let's tell the whole story. 1920 01:38:55,520 --> 01:38:58,640 Speaker 2: She may never be what Dion was in football, or 1921 01:38:58,640 --> 01:39:01,280 Speaker 2: certainly what Steph Curry is, But do you really want 1922 01:39:01,320 --> 01:39:04,160 Speaker 2: to throw the trash out ten I mean ten games 1923 01:39:04,160 --> 01:39:07,559 Speaker 2: in people are just lying and wait. And I saw 1924 01:39:07,600 --> 01:39:10,519 Speaker 2: the same parallel. People were bashing Dion two and I 1925 01:39:10,600 --> 01:39:15,519 Speaker 2: defended Dion. Now Caitlin Clark has in life. I didn't understand. 1926 01:39:15,560 --> 01:39:20,559 Speaker 2: She's very, very accessible. I talked to some media people 1927 01:39:20,560 --> 01:39:23,200 Speaker 2: here talk to her when she was in town. Very accommodating, 1928 01:39:23,320 --> 01:39:27,120 Speaker 2: very friendly, and she had some things to say earlier 1929 01:39:27,600 --> 01:39:30,679 Speaker 2: last evening as well. Ian, Let's give it a listen. 1930 01:39:31,800 --> 01:39:35,120 Speaker 26: No, I mean, basketball is competitive. I get it. You know, 1931 01:39:35,439 --> 01:39:38,000 Speaker 26: sometimes your emotions get the best of you. Happened to 1932 01:39:38,080 --> 01:39:40,840 Speaker 26: me multiple times throughout the course of my career. People 1933 01:39:40,880 --> 01:39:43,519 Speaker 26: are competitive. It is what it is, you know. And 1934 01:39:43,560 --> 01:39:46,639 Speaker 26: she's having a tremendous season season. She's played great basketball 1935 01:39:46,680 --> 01:39:49,479 Speaker 26: in my eyes, probably in first place for six Player 1936 01:39:49,479 --> 01:39:49,880 Speaker 26: of the Year. 1937 01:39:50,080 --> 01:39:51,080 Speaker 6: She's been great. 1938 01:39:50,880 --> 01:39:52,960 Speaker 26: Off the bench for them. I think she had what 1939 01:39:53,000 --> 01:39:54,840 Speaker 26: twenty five here last night and really helped them win 1940 01:39:54,880 --> 01:39:57,040 Speaker 26: the game. So No, and that's just not where my 1941 01:39:57,080 --> 01:39:59,439 Speaker 26: focus is. You know, that's not what I think about 1942 01:39:59,439 --> 01:40:02,200 Speaker 26: on a day to day basis. I think about my team. 1943 01:40:02,240 --> 01:40:04,639 Speaker 26: I think about the ways that I can get better, 1944 01:40:05,640 --> 01:40:07,519 Speaker 26: you know, And you know, it's just basketball at the 1945 01:40:07,560 --> 01:40:09,559 Speaker 26: end of the day. You know, there's no grudges, there's 1946 01:40:09,560 --> 01:40:12,200 Speaker 26: nothing like that. It's a sport. It's competitive. It's not 1947 01:40:12,240 --> 01:40:14,439 Speaker 26: gonna be nice all the time. That's not what basketball is. 1948 01:40:14,479 --> 01:40:15,960 Speaker 26: And I think people that play that at the highest 1949 01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:17,719 Speaker 26: level understand that all. 1950 01:40:17,680 --> 01:40:19,400 Speaker 2: Right, So I'm gonna ask you to play it one 1951 01:40:19,439 --> 01:40:21,920 Speaker 2: more time because I'm gonna set it up differently this time. 1952 01:40:22,960 --> 01:40:27,920 Speaker 2: Caitlin Kennedy Clark pulled a dirty trick on you. No 1953 01:40:28,600 --> 01:40:31,960 Speaker 2: argument about it. Do you think Kennedy Clark owes you 1954 01:40:32,240 --> 01:40:33,759 Speaker 2: an apology. 1955 01:40:36,760 --> 01:40:39,439 Speaker 26: If I get it? You know, sometimes your emotions get 1956 01:40:39,439 --> 01:40:42,599 Speaker 26: the best of you. Happened to me multiple times throughout 1957 01:40:42,640 --> 01:40:44,760 Speaker 26: the course of my career. People are competitive. It is 1958 01:40:44,800 --> 01:40:47,479 Speaker 26: what it is, you know. And she's having a tremendous 1959 01:40:47,520 --> 01:40:50,479 Speaker 26: season season. She's played great basketball in my eyes, probably 1960 01:40:51,120 --> 01:40:53,240 Speaker 26: in first place for sixth Player of the Year. She's 1961 01:40:53,280 --> 01:40:55,559 Speaker 26: been great off the bench for them. I think she 1962 01:40:55,600 --> 01:40:57,439 Speaker 26: had what twenty five here last night and really helped 1963 01:40:57,479 --> 01:40:59,559 Speaker 26: them win the game. So no, and that's just not 1964 01:40:59,600 --> 01:41:01,960 Speaker 26: where my focus is. You know, that's not what I 1965 01:41:02,000 --> 01:41:04,360 Speaker 26: think about on a day to day basis. I think 1966 01:41:04,400 --> 01:41:07,080 Speaker 26: about my team. I think about ways that I can 1967 01:41:07,080 --> 01:41:10,280 Speaker 26: get better, you know, And you know, it's just basketball 1968 01:41:10,280 --> 01:41:12,240 Speaker 26: at the end of the day. You know, there's no grudges, 1969 01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:15,040 Speaker 26: there's nothing like that. It's a sport. It's competitive. It's 1970 01:41:15,040 --> 01:41:16,680 Speaker 26: not gonna be nice all the time. That's not what 1971 01:41:16,760 --> 01:41:18,479 Speaker 26: basketball is. And I think people that play that at 1972 01:41:18,520 --> 01:41:19,920 Speaker 26: the highest level understand that. 1973 01:41:20,479 --> 01:41:24,360 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark taking the high road. She struck every note 1974 01:41:24,840 --> 01:41:27,240 Speaker 2: correctly in my view. Now, by the way, Kennedy Clark 1975 01:41:27,360 --> 01:41:29,960 Speaker 2: is a damn good player, a damn good two way 1976 01:41:30,040 --> 01:41:34,080 Speaker 2: player that really knows the game. I'm sorry, thanks he 1977 01:41:34,240 --> 01:41:36,719 Speaker 2: and I've had Clark on the mind kids. Kennedy Carter, 1978 01:41:36,760 --> 01:41:39,920 Speaker 2: thanks for correcting me. And I also think Angel Reese 1979 01:41:39,960 --> 01:41:43,080 Speaker 2: is a damn good player, tremendous low post player, great defender, 1980 01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:47,840 Speaker 2: a double double machine, superb passer, sees the floor, has 1981 01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:52,439 Speaker 2: a has a great I think grasp on the concept 1982 01:41:52,479 --> 01:41:54,559 Speaker 2: of the game. So I don't know why you got 1983 01:41:54,560 --> 01:41:57,040 Speaker 2: a cheer and jump up and down when Kennedy Carter 1984 01:41:57,400 --> 01:42:00,479 Speaker 2: slams Caitlin to the floor, it just diminishes the product. 1985 01:42:00,520 --> 01:42:03,759 Speaker 2: All right, I'm off my horse. Let's see how this goes. 1986 01:42:03,880 --> 01:42:05,920 Speaker 2: Why did I bring this up? Because eight months ago 1987 01:42:05,960 --> 01:42:09,799 Speaker 2: we were talking about Dion Sanders no different, no different. 1988 01:42:10,400 --> 01:42:12,519 Speaker 2: People rise from to a plateaul to try to tear 1989 01:42:12,560 --> 01:42:14,799 Speaker 2: him back down, a defended Dan and am defendant Caitlin. 1990 01:42:15,080 --> 01:42:18,200 Speaker 2: Guess what, though, doesn't matter. We're all watching, and that's 1991 01:42:18,240 --> 01:42:21,639 Speaker 2: the most important thing coming up. We got Christophet's World 1992 01:42:21,640 --> 01:42:23,439 Speaker 2: of Soccer, but first go back to our guy, Kevin 1993 01:42:23,479 --> 01:42:24,599 Speaker 2: Figures with the latest. 1994 01:42:24,960 --> 01:42:26,599 Speaker 7: All right, we had a full slate of Major League 1995 01:42:26,640 --> 01:42:29,160 Speaker 7: Baseball action on Friday night.

The game 1998 01:42:34,439 --> 01:42:36,559 Speaker 7: scoreless in the top of the eleventh, but then say 1999 01:42:36,680 --> 01:42:38,920 Speaker 7: Escar Hernandez of the Dodgers hit a two run double 2000 01:42:38,960 --> 01:42:42,240 Speaker 7: to give them the two nothing lead.

You may have heard 2044 01:45:06,800 --> 01:45:10,080 Speaker 27: that the Philadelphia Eagles and the Green Bay Packers are 2045 01:45:10,120 --> 01:45:13,439 Speaker 27: going to be playing a game this year in Sal Paulo, Brazil. 2046 01:45:13,920 --> 01:45:16,479 Speaker 27: And you may have also heard that fans are being 2047 01:45:16,560 --> 01:45:20,240 Speaker 27: encouraged not to wear their green jerseys. The Eagles wear green, 2048 01:45:20,280 --> 01:45:22,800 Speaker 27: the Packers wear greens, and players won't be able to 2049 01:45:22,840 --> 01:45:27,400 Speaker 27: wear green because of some sort of gangs in sal Paulo. 2050 01:45:27,960 --> 01:45:31,680 Speaker 27: This is one hundred percent false and the truth is 2051 01:45:32,000 --> 01:45:35,120 Speaker 27: soccer related. Let's step back and try to explain where 2052 01:45:35,120 --> 01:45:38,160 Speaker 27: this all began. Josh Jacobs was on The green Light 2053 01:45:38,240 --> 01:45:41,839 Speaker 27: with Chris Long Podcasts and made these remarks where he said, quote, 2054 01:45:41,920 --> 01:45:43,720 Speaker 27: you know, they said that the part of Brazil we're 2055 01:45:43,760 --> 01:45:46,720 Speaker 27: going to, you can't wear green at They said it's 2056 01:45:46,720 --> 01:45:49,680 Speaker 27: something to do with gangs and stuff. It led to 2057 01:45:49,920 --> 01:45:53,160 Speaker 27: aj Brown and the Philadelphia Eagles then going on x 2058 01:45:53,200 --> 01:45:56,120 Speaker 27: formerly known as Twitter and saying the million dollar question 2059 01:45:56,240 --> 01:45:58,320 Speaker 27: is if we can't go anywhere wear a certain color, 2060 01:45:58,400 --> 01:46:02,400 Speaker 27: why are we going this We prompted backlash from the NFL, 2061 01:46:02,680 --> 01:46:05,200 Speaker 27: and Jacobs has since apologized for these comments, but not 2062 01:46:05,320 --> 01:46:09,200 Speaker 27: before a bunch of news sites and aggregators out there 2063 01:46:09,200 --> 01:46:12,120 Speaker 27: on this information jumped all over it and spread the 2064 01:46:12,200 --> 01:46:14,519 Speaker 27: rumor far and wide, and now many many people out 2065 01:46:14,560 --> 01:46:18,000 Speaker 27: there believe that gangs will shoot you in Sal Paulo 2066 01:46:18,120 --> 01:46:20,519 Speaker 27: if you wear green, or in a more team version 2067 01:46:20,560 --> 01:46:23,080 Speaker 27: of this, that both the Eagles and the Packers both 2068 01:46:23,120 --> 01:46:25,360 Speaker 27: teams that wear green. The Eagles of the home team, 2069 01:46:25,680 --> 01:46:28,960 Speaker 27: that somehow they are being told by Brazilians not to 2070 01:46:29,040 --> 01:46:31,519 Speaker 27: wear green, that they have to wear other jurys of 2071 01:46:31,560 --> 01:46:31,880 Speaker 27: the game. 2072 01:46:32,080 --> 01:46:33,080 Speaker 6: That's not true. 2073 01:46:33,200 --> 01:46:35,479 Speaker 27: This is a soccer story, and let me try to 2074 01:46:35,520 --> 01:46:38,400 Speaker 27: explain it's not even that serious to begin with. Let's 2075 01:46:38,479 --> 01:46:41,000 Speaker 27: talk about the club in the stadium where the Eagles 2076 01:46:41,040 --> 01:46:42,280 Speaker 27: and Packers will be playing. 2077 01:46:42,720 --> 01:46:43,080 Speaker 2: Sport. 2078 01:46:43,200 --> 01:46:47,600 Speaker 27: Club Corinthians Polista, better simply known now as Corinthians, was 2079 01:46:47,680 --> 01:46:51,759 Speaker 27: founded in nineteen ten by railway workers. It is today 2080 01:46:52,160 --> 01:46:55,920 Speaker 27: one of the most successful clubs in Brazil with seven 2081 01:46:56,040 --> 01:47:00,280 Speaker 27: national titles, three Copa de Brazil trophies, and it is 2082 01:47:00,320 --> 01:47:02,800 Speaker 27: one of the most supported clubs in the world, with 2083 01:47:02,840 --> 01:47:08,080 Speaker 27: over thirty million fans. The stadium, Arena Corinthians, is known 2084 01:47:08,120 --> 01:47:11,400 Speaker 27: by the sponsorship for reasons. Neo Kumicus Stadium was made 2085 01:47:11,400 --> 01:47:15,360 Speaker 27: in twenty fourteen for the FIFA World Cup, hosted six matches, 2086 01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:17,519 Speaker 27: including the opening match of. 2087 01:47:17,360 --> 01:47:18,240 Speaker 6: That World Cup. 2088 01:47:18,479 --> 01:47:21,360 Speaker 27: It is a very fun It is a very modernized 2089 01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:25,120 Speaker 27: place to watch a soccer game. Now this gets into 2090 01:47:25,280 --> 01:47:29,720 Speaker 27: why the Green, why the greencris It is because Corinthians, 2091 01:47:29,920 --> 01:47:32,840 Speaker 27: a very decorated club, has a crosstown rival by the 2092 01:47:32,920 --> 01:47:36,240 Speaker 27: name of Palmeras. It is part of the derby Paulista 2093 01:47:36,400 --> 01:47:39,360 Speaker 27: sometimes simply just the derby in that country, because they 2094 01:47:39,360 --> 01:47:42,040 Speaker 27: know which derby you are talking about. A very heated, 2095 01:47:42,560 --> 01:47:46,560 Speaker 27: very passionate rivalry. Paul Maris is a club whose primary 2096 01:47:46,600 --> 01:47:50,479 Speaker 27: colors are green and white. Their home colors, they wear 2097 01:47:50,600 --> 01:47:54,080 Speaker 27: green jersey, white pants, and for their way it's the 2098 01:47:54,080 --> 01:47:59,559 Speaker 27: opposite white shirt, green pants. It's always green with them. 2099 01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:04,200 Speaker 27: Because of this, Corinthians and their fans have a informal 2100 01:48:04,280 --> 01:48:08,880 Speaker 27: band on the color green. Fans avoid wearing the color 2101 01:48:08,960 --> 01:48:11,920 Speaker 27: green to their games. In fact, there has been an 2102 01:48:11,960 --> 01:48:15,679 Speaker 27: incident in the past where a Corinthians player was wearing 2103 01:48:16,240 --> 01:48:19,479 Speaker 27: green cleats as part while playing on a game and 2104 01:48:19,479 --> 01:48:22,800 Speaker 27: the club find him for wearing green. 2105 01:48:23,520 --> 01:48:24,240 Speaker 6: On his kit. 2106 01:48:24,600 --> 01:48:28,719 Speaker 27: It is a tradition, much like how Ohio State fans 2107 01:48:28,720 --> 01:48:31,960 Speaker 27: decide on the week of the rivalry against Michigan to 2108 01:48:32,240 --> 01:48:34,599 Speaker 27: just use an X in the place of any M 2109 01:48:34,880 --> 01:48:37,599 Speaker 27: in any kind of text they send out, crossout M, 2110 01:48:37,720 --> 01:48:40,800 Speaker 27: avoid the letter M that entire week. But it's just 2111 01:48:40,840 --> 01:48:44,360 Speaker 27: that it is a tradition, is a tradition that Corinthians follow. 2112 01:48:44,760 --> 01:48:46,840 Speaker 27: Would some fans prefer them not to wear green in 2113 01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:51,080 Speaker 27: their stadiums for the Eagles and Packers, Yes, I am sure. However, 2114 01:48:51,240 --> 01:48:54,360 Speaker 27: the club has not told the NFL that neither of 2115 01:48:54,400 --> 01:48:57,120 Speaker 27: these teams can wear green. The Philadelphia Eagles right now 2116 01:48:57,120 --> 01:48:59,680 Speaker 27: haven't decided if they will wear green or if they 2117 01:48:59,720 --> 01:49:02,120 Speaker 27: will wear black. And to be honest, it's not even 2118 01:49:02,120 --> 01:49:05,680 Speaker 27: the first time green's been acceptable in Arena Corinthians. To 2119 01:49:05,680 --> 01:49:08,639 Speaker 27: begin with, as I said, this was a World Cup venue, 2120 01:49:08,800 --> 01:49:12,560 Speaker 27: which meant that many Brazilians were wearing the green Brazilian 2121 01:49:12,640 --> 01:49:17,360 Speaker 27: national team jerseys to the stadium. Green means many things 2122 01:49:17,400 --> 01:49:20,840 Speaker 27: to the Corinthian fan base about Paul Marris, but what 2123 01:49:20,920 --> 01:49:24,559 Speaker 27: it is not is a gang color. While soccer fans 2124 01:49:24,720 --> 01:49:28,840 Speaker 27: may be passionate, may be very very very passionate, they 2125 01:49:28,880 --> 01:49:32,320 Speaker 27: will not attack you just because they see the color green. 2126 01:49:33,000 --> 01:49:36,479 Speaker 27: This has several implications and it drives me insane for 2127 01:49:36,520 --> 01:49:39,280 Speaker 27: a few reasons. It presumes a lot of these fans, 2128 01:49:39,439 --> 01:49:42,759 Speaker 27: or a lot of Brazilians to be unthinking animals that somehow, 2129 01:49:42,800 --> 01:49:45,639 Speaker 27: if they see the wrong color, much like a raging bowl, 2130 01:49:45,640 --> 01:49:47,200 Speaker 27: that they will simply charge at it. 2131 01:49:47,400 --> 01:49:48,400 Speaker 1: That is not the case. 2132 01:49:48,720 --> 01:49:53,439 Speaker 27: It presumes like that Salpoulo is dangerous and to be clear, 2133 01:49:53,760 --> 01:49:56,120 Speaker 27: to be clear, there is crime in sal Polo. There 2134 01:49:56,160 --> 01:50:00,840 Speaker 27: is crime everywhere in the world, and for millionaire athletes, yes, 2135 01:50:00,920 --> 01:50:04,600 Speaker 27: you probably will have to go with extra security precautions 2136 01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:07,840 Speaker 27: because that is just the state of the world sometimes. 2137 01:50:08,160 --> 01:50:11,360 Speaker 27: But this episode has unfortunately spread fear. It is unspread 2138 01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:15,000 Speaker 27: doubt where it comes to these the idea of the 2139 01:50:15,080 --> 01:50:19,200 Speaker 27: NFL playing a game in Brazil. Salpolo's Mayer has come 2140 01:50:19,240 --> 01:50:23,000 Speaker 27: out and decried it, saying that Salpolo is a vast metropolis, 2141 01:50:23,080 --> 01:50:25,519 Speaker 27: one of the largest in the world, like many other cities, 2142 01:50:25,520 --> 01:50:29,080 Speaker 27: that faces social inequality and crime. But telling players not 2143 01:50:29,200 --> 01:50:32,720 Speaker 27: to wear green is unnecessary and the gang references reinforce 2144 01:50:32,760 --> 01:50:36,000 Speaker 27: the stereotypes that only escalates prejudice. And you know what, 2145 01:50:36,240 --> 01:50:38,679 Speaker 27: I fully agree with him and Bernie. Honestly, I feel 2146 01:50:38,720 --> 01:50:40,479 Speaker 27: a little crazy because I feel like this was a 2147 01:50:40,520 --> 01:50:43,439 Speaker 27: story I was aware of. When the NFL schedule came out, 2148 01:50:43,600 --> 01:50:46,439 Speaker 27: it was pointed out by several fans on Twitter that 2149 01:50:46,520 --> 01:50:49,000 Speaker 27: there was this thing with Corinthians where they didn't like 2150 01:50:49,040 --> 01:50:51,559 Speaker 27: the color of green. I was not expecting it to 2151 01:50:51,600 --> 01:50:54,479 Speaker 27: pop up again like this over a month later. This 2152 01:50:54,520 --> 01:50:56,400 Speaker 27: is part of what the NFL wants to do if 2153 01:50:56,439 --> 01:50:59,559 Speaker 27: it wants to spread its joy of its sports the world, 2154 01:51:00,040 --> 01:51:02,439 Speaker 27: and sometimes you have to start seeing the rest of 2155 01:51:02,479 --> 01:51:05,759 Speaker 27: the world as human as well, not as dangerous areas 2156 01:51:05,800 --> 01:51:07,040 Speaker 27: to simply walk around. 2157 01:51:07,200 --> 01:51:08,280 Speaker 6: Maybe the NFL could. 2158 01:51:08,160 --> 01:51:11,240 Speaker 27: Have chosen a better area or better teams that don't 2159 01:51:11,280 --> 01:51:14,679 Speaker 27: have this green element to it. But to be honest, 2160 01:51:14,760 --> 01:51:16,840 Speaker 27: it should not be a problem and it will not 2161 01:51:16,920 --> 01:51:19,400 Speaker 27: be a problem. And Bernie, I know you, like me, 2162 01:51:19,920 --> 01:51:22,720 Speaker 27: have a background in formal journalism and one of the 2163 01:51:22,760 --> 01:51:24,920 Speaker 27: things that tears me up about this is a lot 2164 01:51:24,920 --> 01:51:28,240 Speaker 27: of these aggregators on Twitter who take this information and 2165 01:51:28,280 --> 01:51:33,240 Speaker 27: they have off youed, no apologies, no retractions, not even corrections. 2166 01:51:33,040 --> 01:51:36,439 Speaker 27: That bad information is still out there right now to 2167 01:51:36,520 --> 01:51:39,280 Speaker 27: this day, and it taints and colors this game, and 2168 01:51:39,320 --> 01:51:44,120 Speaker 27: it taints in colors Salpolo and Corinthians Football Club in 2169 01:51:44,200 --> 01:51:46,960 Speaker 27: ways that are just completely unfair. If you wish to 2170 01:51:46,960 --> 01:51:49,320 Speaker 27: be true to the spirit of Corinthians, don't wear green. 2171 01:51:49,800 --> 01:51:52,320 Speaker 27: But if you are there to support either the Eagles 2172 01:51:52,439 --> 01:51:55,000 Speaker 27: or the Packers, there's probably going to be an exception 2173 01:51:55,080 --> 01:51:57,080 Speaker 27: made for you. Because all this is, at the end 2174 01:51:57,080 --> 01:51:59,719 Speaker 27: of the day, is a tradition held by a sports 2175 01:51:59,760 --> 01:52:03,600 Speaker 27: club here too, by their fans and their player and 2176 01:52:03,640 --> 01:52:07,080 Speaker 27: their organization. It is not a band placed on anyone else, 2177 01:52:07,479 --> 01:52:10,400 Speaker 27: but it is a soccer tradition and it is a 2178 01:52:10,439 --> 01:52:13,200 Speaker 27: fun tradition like no other out there because it is 2179 01:52:13,280 --> 01:52:15,280 Speaker 27: fun to see these things in the world and it 2180 01:52:15,360 --> 01:52:17,679 Speaker 27: is fun to see them in the world of soccer. 2181 01:52:17,840 --> 01:52:18,920 Speaker 6: We'll see you next time, Bernie. 2182 01:52:18,960 --> 01:52:22,360 Speaker 27: Copa America is coming, euro Championship is coming. This is 2183 01:52:22,400 --> 01:52:24,439 Speaker 27: a great time of year to dive into the sport. 2184 01:52:26,320 --> 01:52:29,920 Speaker 2: Chris Sel is a really strong, strong I gotta tell you. 2185 01:52:30,560 --> 01:52:35,280 Speaker 2: There has been a lot of misinformation apparently regarding the 2186 01:52:35,320 --> 01:52:38,599 Speaker 2: color green and why you're not supposed to wear it, 2187 01:52:38,680 --> 01:52:43,680 Speaker 2: and people have gone forth with stories without perhaps journalistically 2188 01:52:43,760 --> 01:52:46,439 Speaker 2: checking them out, and so I guess the bottom line 2189 01:52:46,479 --> 01:52:48,640 Speaker 2: is it's good that you were able to step in 2190 01:52:48,840 --> 01:52:51,040 Speaker 2: and sort of set the record straight. At the end 2191 01:52:51,040 --> 01:52:52,479 Speaker 2: of the day, though, when you got a green and 2192 01:52:52,520 --> 01:52:54,599 Speaker 2: white team playing a green and white team and greens 2193 01:52:54,600 --> 01:52:57,599 Speaker 2: and issue, maybe the NFL could have thought this through 2194 01:52:57,760 --> 01:53:01,639 Speaker 2: just a little bit. Coming up, the Jake Paul Mike 2195 01:53:01,720 --> 01:53:07,920 Speaker 2: Tyson boxing matches rescheduled for November fifteenth for very good reason, 2196 01:53:08,840 --> 01:53:11,840 Speaker 2: and I think it's for the better. As I said 2197 01:53:11,880 --> 01:53:15,240 Speaker 2: last week, this fight's going on. Both sides want it 2198 01:53:15,280 --> 01:53:18,360 Speaker 2: and there's a lot of money involved, and I'm glad 2199 01:53:18,360 --> 01:53:20,800 Speaker 2: Mike's okay. He had an ulcer situation. We'll talk about 2200 01:53:20,800 --> 01:53:22,360 Speaker 2: what's up. And by the way, it's move to a 2201 01:53:22,400 --> 01:53:26,680 Speaker 2: Friday night and we'll share what the ramifications are with 2202 01:53:26,760 --> 01:53:28,080 Speaker 2: that coming up.

Great 2221 01:54:23,000 --> 01:54:26,840 Speaker 2: job is always Kevin Figures on the updates, great commentary, 2222 01:54:27,320 --> 01:54:31,639 Speaker 2: his thoughts on whether or not Deany Hearlely should take 2223 01:54:31,640 --> 01:54:35,120 Speaker 2: the job, etc. And of course he and Roddy doing 2224 01:54:35,120 --> 01:54:38,200 Speaker 2: a great job is always managing through all the callers 2225 01:54:38,200 --> 01:54:43,280 Speaker 2: and other very rockets, productive midnight hour and great job 2226 01:54:44,040 --> 01:54:49,400 Speaker 2: by everybody. All right, So we talked about this last Friday. 2227 01:54:49,400 --> 01:54:52,640 Speaker 2: It was announced last week that the Jake Paul Mike 2228 01:54:52,680 --> 01:54:57,920 Speaker 2: Tyson boxing match would not go on July twentieth. Mike 2229 01:54:58,000 --> 01:55:02,560 Speaker 2: Tyson had a fairly serious medical episode on an airplane. 2230 01:55:02,560 --> 01:55:05,360 Speaker 2: I think the plane even had to land. And Mike's 2231 01:55:05,360 --> 01:55:08,600 Speaker 2: had issues with ulcers in his adult life, and this 2232 01:55:08,800 --> 01:55:11,600 Speaker 2: was serious. It was serious enough to where he needed 2233 01:55:11,960 --> 01:55:14,800 Speaker 2: some real medical treatment, and as a result of that, 2234 01:55:14,840 --> 01:55:17,040 Speaker 2: the doctor thought it would be in his best interest 2235 01:55:17,840 --> 01:55:25,240 Speaker 2: to not train or train significantly curtail his training in 2236 01:55:25,320 --> 01:55:30,720 Speaker 2: the near term. And Tyson's pros pro and believe me, 2237 01:55:30,760 --> 01:55:34,600 Speaker 2: when you are training for a boxing match, it's a 2238 01:55:34,680 --> 01:55:38,760 Speaker 2: different ballgame versus just standard standard training. A little bit 2239 01:55:38,760 --> 01:55:41,120 Speaker 2: about this. I entered a non sanctioned tournament back in 2240 01:55:41,160 --> 01:55:45,360 Speaker 2: twenty seventeen, and when you trained specifically for about it, 2241 01:55:45,680 --> 01:55:49,160 Speaker 2: it's a big It's a big damn deal. There's too 2242 01:55:49,240 --> 01:55:51,920 Speaker 2: much money involved in this fight. Too many people want 2243 01:55:51,920 --> 01:55:54,720 Speaker 2: to see it. It's actually gonna count against their records. 2244 01:55:54,960 --> 01:55:58,720 Speaker 2: There was some speculation that, you know, they might not 2245 01:55:58,760 --> 01:56:00,280 Speaker 2: do the fight. It's about a day. No, it's it's not. 2246 01:56:00,880 --> 01:56:03,720 Speaker 2: Mike Tyson knows what he's doing, and Jake Paul knows 2247 01:56:03,720 --> 01:56:05,440 Speaker 2: what he's doing. Then two of them are gonna get together. 2248 01:56:05,480 --> 01:56:07,600 Speaker 2: We'll see what happens. You're gonna watch. It's gonna be 2249 01:56:07,600 --> 01:56:10,720 Speaker 2: on Netflix. I believe people are gonna watch. People lact 2250 01:56:10,760 --> 01:56:13,760 Speaker 2: like it's beneath them. It's not. And Jake Paul agreed 2251 01:56:13,800 --> 01:56:16,080 Speaker 2: to it too, because he said, you know, let's let's 2252 01:56:16,120 --> 01:56:21,240 Speaker 2: do this right. Let's get this done right. So Mike 2253 01:56:21,280 --> 01:56:23,560 Speaker 2: Tyson was heating the doctor's orders and there's nothing wrong 2254 01:56:23,600 --> 01:56:26,280 Speaker 2: with that. The only story involved here is it's moved 2255 01:56:26,280 --> 01:56:28,120 Speaker 2: to November fifteenth. It's still going to be played in 2256 01:56:28,200 --> 01:56:30,760 Speaker 2: Jerry Dome, and what's interesting is not going to be 2257 01:56:30,840 --> 01:56:33,960 Speaker 2: on a Friday night instead of Saturday night. For one 2258 01:56:34,040 --> 01:56:38,840 Speaker 2: simple reason, the Dallas Cowboys host the Houston Texans on Monday, 2259 01:56:38,880 --> 01:56:44,760 Speaker 2: November eighteenth for Monday Night Football. So in order to 2260 01:56:44,800 --> 01:56:47,600 Speaker 2: get the stadium ready to set up for the Cowboys game. 2261 01:56:48,720 --> 01:56:51,320 Speaker 2: They're gonna move the instead of having to fight on 2262 01:56:52,280 --> 01:56:54,040 Speaker 2: Saturday nights, They're gonna have it on Friday night to 2263 01:56:54,080 --> 01:56:56,760 Speaker 2: give them a you know, an additional day to get 2264 01:56:56,800 --> 01:56:59,200 Speaker 2: the stadium ready for Monday night football. Now, the original 2265 01:56:59,280 --> 01:57:03,320 Speaker 2: July day was not anywhere near the NFL season, and 2266 01:57:03,360 --> 01:57:06,160 Speaker 2: so there was no competition. I mean, the NBA Finals 2267 01:57:06,200 --> 01:57:09,440 Speaker 2: would have been done certainly July twentieth, college football still 2268 01:57:09,440 --> 01:57:12,560 Speaker 2: a month out. But again, on May twenty sixth, on 2269 01:57:12,600 --> 01:57:15,120 Speaker 2: a flight from Miami to Los Angeles, Mike Tyson had 2270 01:57:15,120 --> 01:57:20,320 Speaker 2: a fairly serious ulster flare up that required real medical attention, 2271 01:57:20,440 --> 01:57:24,560 Speaker 2: and Tyson was forced to postpone the fight after a 2272 01:57:24,600 --> 01:57:27,040 Speaker 2: health checkup and the doctor's required him to limit his 2273 01:57:27,080 --> 01:57:30,760 Speaker 2: training over the next few weeks until his condition improved. 2274 01:57:31,400 --> 01:57:33,760 Speaker 2: Tyson was quoted he says, although we had to postpone 2275 01:57:33,760 --> 01:57:36,960 Speaker 2: the fight, I will resume training shortly. I'm thankful to 2276 01:57:37,000 --> 01:57:40,680 Speaker 2: the medical staff that treated me, and to MVP Netflix 2277 01:57:40,680 --> 01:57:43,040 Speaker 2: and AT and T Stadium for working diligently to find 2278 01:57:43,040 --> 01:57:45,640 Speaker 2: the best rescheduled date for all parties. While we have 2279 01:57:45,680 --> 01:57:48,440 Speaker 2: a new date, the result will be the same no 2280 01:57:48,480 --> 01:57:50,960 Speaker 2: matter when we fight. Jake Paul is going to get 2281 01:57:51,040 --> 01:57:55,480 Speaker 2: knocked out. Tyson, by the way, celebrates his fifty eighth 2282 01:57:55,600 --> 01:58:02,680 Speaker 2: birthday three weeks from Sunday. I actually believe this fight 2283 01:58:02,720 --> 01:58:05,400 Speaker 2: will be a little bit more anticipated than people realize. 2284 01:58:05,400 --> 01:58:08,360 Speaker 2: We're talking about Mike Tyson, who I've had the chance 2285 01:58:08,400 --> 01:58:10,480 Speaker 2: to visit with many times. I find him one of 2286 01:58:10,520 --> 01:58:14,200 Speaker 2: the most fascinating people and the history of the planet 2287 01:58:14,400 --> 01:58:17,800 Speaker 2: and former heavyweight world champion. You can't beat that, right. 2288 01:58:18,840 --> 01:58:21,360 Speaker 2: Jake Paul takes a lot of heat I think undeserving. 2289 01:58:21,760 --> 01:58:24,600 Speaker 2: He put Tyrone Woodley to sleep twice. I know he's 2290 01:58:24,600 --> 01:58:28,880 Speaker 2: this YouTube look to get to this point again, the 2291 01:58:28,880 --> 01:58:32,560 Speaker 2: opposite of hate is not love, it's indifference. If people 2292 01:58:32,600 --> 01:58:35,880 Speaker 2: can hate on Jake Paul, that means he's received he's 2293 01:58:36,200 --> 01:58:39,480 Speaker 2: achieved a certain plateau. He's done it. People are buying tickets, 2294 01:58:39,480 --> 01:58:43,680 Speaker 2: people want to watch. Look, as a society, we have 2295 01:58:43,760 --> 01:58:49,480 Speaker 2: been fascinated with gladiator sports since the beginning of time. 2296 01:58:50,280 --> 01:58:54,000 Speaker 2: So we'll be watching. Believe me, it'll draw a crowd, 2297 01:58:54,040 --> 01:58:57,880 Speaker 2: there'll be conversations, and we'll see what happens. But it's 2298 01:58:57,920 --> 01:59:00,240 Speaker 2: all good. It's all in the up and up. Give 2299 01:59:00,240 --> 01:59:02,160 Speaker 2: Mike Tyson a chance to heal, give them a chance 2300 01:59:02,200 --> 01:59:04,680 Speaker 2: to train properly. That's what we want. We want both 2301 01:59:04,680 --> 01:59:09,080 Speaker 2: fighters healthy and ready to go, especially the chance Mike Tyson, 2302 01:59:09,160 --> 01:59:12,280 Speaker 2: this is actually gonna count on this record.
