WEBVTT - HOUR 2- Philip Rivers Aug 26, 2020 0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:03.480 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:07.200 Sports Radio hour or two on this Wednesday, Dan and 0:00:07.240 --> 0:00:11.840 The dan 'stan Patrick Show. Philip Rivers, the Colts quarterback, 0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:14.280 will join us coming up a little bit. Still sounds 0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:17.400 strange to say that, but Philip will join us. Also, 0:00:17.520 --> 0:00:20.400 we'll check in with Chris Haynes. He covers the NBA 0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:22.919 for Jana who Sports will join us from the bubble, 0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:26.160 you know, kind of interesting game for Paul George last night. 0:00:26.280 --> 0:00:28.400 He puts up thirty five and kind of had a 0:00:28.400 --> 0:00:31.479 coming out party here and he talked about after the 0:00:31.520 --> 0:00:33.800 game where he was kind of in a dark spot 0:00:33.840 --> 0:00:36.320 here now I know. And Charles Barkley was with us 0:00:36.360 --> 0:00:38.159 last hour and Charles goes, I don't want to hear 0:00:38.200 --> 0:00:41.080 from these athletes. You get to play basketball, go play golf, 0:00:42.000 --> 0:00:45.400 you know, you get may paid millions of dollars there. Yeah, 0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:50.760 Charles has taken sort of a large overhead view of 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:53.279 something like that. I don't want to diminish, you know, 0:00:53.800 --> 0:00:58.200 or try to kind of lessen the impact of what 0:00:58.240 --> 0:01:00.240 was happening in the bubble. You know, Charles was about 0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:01.800 I don't want to hear about you complaining about the 0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:03.960 food and I said this before, like j R. Smith 0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:06.399 was complaining about the food. I said, shut up, You're 0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:09.319 lucky to be in the bubble. Enjoy the food. And 0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:12.280 you know, Paul George had this to say after the 0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:15.880 big win by the Clippers last night. The bubble got 0:01:15.920 --> 0:01:18.120 the best of me. I was just in a dark place. 0:01:18.600 --> 0:01:21.000 I really wasn't here. I checked out so these past 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:23.240 couple of games. It was just it was just difficult. 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:26.320 But shout out to people that stood behind me, that 0:01:26.480 --> 0:01:32.680 was in my corner, the positivity, my teammates, my family, friends, everybody. 0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:35.680 Thank everybody that reached out to me. I was just 0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:38.920 in a bad place and I found my way. I'm 0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:42.800 back and I look forward to the rest of his run. 0:01:43.240 --> 0:01:46.720 All right. You know, depression hits you. It doesn't matter 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.760 who you are, where you are, it can hit you, 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:51.640 tap you on the shoulder. And if that happened to 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:55.080 Paul George and he was something was up with Paul George, 0:01:55.920 --> 0:01:58.800 and I didn't know if it was physically mentally, and 0:01:58.880 --> 0:02:00.920 we found out that maybe it was a little bit 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:04.480 of both. But I applaud him for saying something like this. 0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:06.800 I don't think that there are enough people who are 0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:09.240 willing to say this. I go back to what Kevin 0:02:09.280 --> 0:02:11.880 Love said. You know, when Kevin Love came out and said, look, 0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:16.240 I have anxiety attacks. You know, I battled depression, and 0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:20.560 people immediately have the reaction. You got all this money, 0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:23.240 you're young, you're successful, you're good. Look, and I go 0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:26.760 that doesn't like depression. Doesn't go let me pick on 0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:30.040 somebody who doesn't have anything, or doesn't look good or 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:33.000 is older. It's not the way it works. So Paul 0:02:33.040 --> 0:02:35.240 George was in a dark place. You're in the bubble, 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:38.720 and you know, I understand that. You know, if you're 0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:42.720 a cordoned off from your family, the walls start to 0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:45.359 close in. There's not much going on there aside from 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:48.280 playing basketball, and you go back to your room. So 0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:52.040 Paul George, maybe he came out of this and it 0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:54.120 was going to be a different player. The Clippers certainly 0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:56.760 need him. But last night the story was a the 0:02:56.760 --> 0:03:00.639 Clippers in a dominating performance, but also with what happened 0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:04.240 to Luca don Chick in the third quarter. Marcus Morris 0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:08.399 stepped on Luca's ankle. Charles Barkley said, look, I don't 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:11.280 want to call out somebody for doing something like that. 0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:15.160 But it did certainly look like he was targeting his ankle. 0:03:15.720 --> 0:03:17.840 And if you look at the video, and I agree, 0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:20.839 I think Morris they were. They're targeting Luca let There's 0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:24.400 no secret here, right, We've seen that the last couple 0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:27.800 of games, and these are role players. These aren't Paul 0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:30.880 George isn't doing this. Kawhi' is not doing this. You know, 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.440 Patrick Beverley, if he was playing, would be doing this. 0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:36.240 You know, you're a pest, you're a nuisance. But if 0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:39.600 you're doing it in the context of you know, basketball, 0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:45.440 you know, Rodman never got credit for being brilliant mentally, 0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:49.680 Like his mind games were great against Carl Malone. He 0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:52.120 just wanted to kind of tangle up with Malone. He 0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:54.760 didn't try to hurt him. He just wanted to be 0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:58.040 in his head, in his space. But the Clippers, this 0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:01.200 isn't about being in Luca's head. They're in his face. 0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:03.840 They want to try to hurt him, they want to 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:07.000 be physical with him. And that's where I can't give 0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:10.120 Morris the benefit of the down. Montres Harold, with what 0:04:10.160 --> 0:04:12.480 he said and how he said and how he acted, 0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:15.080 you don't get the benefit of the down. You went 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:18.599 after Luca's ankle, in my opinion, and you, first of all, 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:22.200 you go towards Luca after a made basket. There's no 0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:25.800 reason to go towards Luca. His back is you know, 0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:29.800 you're he's got his back to you, and then you 0:04:29.880 --> 0:04:33.320 step on his ankle. It's so easy to avoid a 0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:38.960 situation like that. But here's Luca after what happened. I 0:04:39.000 --> 0:04:41.120 don't want to talk to him. You know, he's just 0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:45.880 saying a lot of best stuff to me all the game, 0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:48.120 you know, and just I don't want to talk to him. 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:50.520 I just got to move on, you know, like I say, 0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:53.359 But he's going to have their own opinion, and you know, 0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:56.080 I just hope he wasn't intentional. And that's if that 0:04:56.200 --> 0:05:01.560 was intentional, that's w Yeah, it wasn't necessary. Like if 0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:03.840 the Clippers play the way they're supposed to play, they'll win. 0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:08.880 But they haven't played great and Luca was embarrassing them. 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.839 And this is why you have the role players doing 0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:17.880 what they're probably paid to do. Be tough, be an intimidator, physical, 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:22.600 say something, do something, you know, nudge him, knock him around, 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:25.760 grab him. That's what they want to do. They want 0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:28.280 to test him he's twenty one years of age. They're 0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:31.480 testing him. But the Clippers played great last night. Paul 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:35.880 George did, Kawhi also played great, and Luca did not 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:39.239 look good at all. Kristaps Porzingis wasn't able to play. 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:42.480 And now you have a close out game for the 0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:45.719 Clippers coming up. Games coming up tonight. You got the 0:05:45.760 --> 0:05:48.320 Lakers trying to close out the Blazers, Thunder and the 0:05:48.400 --> 0:05:52.320 Rockets and Magic in the Bucks and e me I 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:55.800 thought Reggie Miller yesterday on the show said that the 0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:57.880 Lakers are going to want to play the Utah Jazz. 0:05:58.600 --> 0:06:01.000 I was under the impression that that was the next round. 0:06:01.000 --> 0:06:03.440 So we just had Berkeley on and say no, they 0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:05.800 would face the winner of the Rockets and the Thunder. 0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:09.000 So that was em there. Yeah, PAULI, I was watching 0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:12.760 before our Clippers Mavericks. There's about twenty promos that showed 0:06:12.839 --> 0:06:15.040 Lucas shot from the other night and said tune in 0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:18.839 tonight Luca and all the stuff. There's probably a dozen promos. 0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:21.120 You know, it wasn't his fault. He's still banged up 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:24.000 and they swarmed him, but a lot of people were 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:26.200 tuning in to see him. Maybe I never saw him before. 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:30.719 Marcus Morris on Twitter said, I play this game with 0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:34.279 a level of respect for myself and other players. To 0:06:34.480 --> 0:06:37.039 think I would try to injure somebody as crazy to me. 0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:41.120 Ten years going against the best, I stand on morals 0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:43.719 and hard work. I compete and leave it out there 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:47.480 every game. Basketball has never been that serious to try 0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:51.640 to hurt somebody. I'm not apologizing for bleep because I 0:06:51.800 --> 0:06:54.880 know what I put into this game day in and 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:58.320 day out. It was a mistake, deal with it. Competing 0:06:58.520 --> 0:07:01.120 is why I play well. This is the only thing 0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:03.600 I'd want to know if Marcus Morris joined US is 0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:09.640 why were you approaching Luca after the made basket because 0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:13.119 you're not making a basketball move. Oh you're now picking 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.080 up Luca full court? Is that what you were doing 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:17.640 in the third quarter? Like it didn't. It just doesn't 0:07:17.680 --> 0:07:20.560 make any sense in the context of a game. You 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:23.600 get guys who sprain their ankles all the time. Now, 0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:27.080 Gordon Hayward, that was a basketball play where he come 0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:30.720 down on somebody's foot, But you cannot tell me that 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:35.480 Marcus Morris didn't go towards Luca don Chick with some 0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:39.280 kind of intent there maybe just a nudge him or 0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:42.360 give him an elbow or something. I don't know, but 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:45.960 of course Morris is going to say this on Twitter, 0:07:46.400 --> 0:07:48.520 like you know, ten years and I stand on my 0:07:48.600 --> 0:07:51.160 morals and the way I play the game, And yeah, see, 0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:53.440 didn't Marcus Morris the same dude who got ejected from 0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:55.960 a preseason game for trying to elbow somebody in the face. 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.280 He just plays preseason, regular season, postseason. Do you remember that? 0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:02.360 I think it was against the Wizards maybe, And there's like, 0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:04.400 yeahs that at the top of the key and he 0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:06.800 hits the ball off the dude's face. Then he swings 0:08:06.800 --> 0:08:08.560 his elbow at him and swings but makes it look 0:08:08.560 --> 0:08:10.440 like it's just a normal basketball and move. It's the 0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:13.840 same dude. He gets no benefit of the dount montres 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:16.400 Harrow gets no benefit of the doubt. You know, when 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:18.880 you have people like Kawhi or Paul George, I'll give 0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:21.960 you the benefit of the doubt. But we've seen the 0:08:22.000 --> 0:08:24.760 Clippers go out of their way to be physical with Luca. 0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:29.400 If they stepped on Seth Curry's ankle, then I can say, 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:32.400 all right, you know, we can have a discussion about this. 0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:36.920 This is Luca and so you step on the bat ankle, 0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:41.160 and you're going right towards Luca and we're supposed to 0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:43.360 go that's just a coincidence. You guys have been saying 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:46.080 all kinds of things, all kinds of things to Luca 0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:52.400 and being physical with him, bordering on something fineable or 0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:58.480 that you know, ejectable. Right, Let's happened the entire series. 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:03.880 This has happened through you know, the history of the NBA. 0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:06.880 They're going to be physical with the best player. Pistons 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:10.520 did that to Michael Jordan. You just go out of 0:09:10.559 --> 0:09:15.920 your way. They tested Dirk Navitsky, Kobe young Kobe, they 0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:20.080 tried to rough him up. These players come in and 0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:23.080 these veteran players want to put you in your place, 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:26.280 and usually that's on the seat of your pants. But hey, 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.959 if the NBA wants to continue down this road with 0:09:29.000 --> 0:09:31.840 the Clippers, with the way they're playing, it's not a 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:36.880 good look. And not that you should be overly protective 0:09:36.880 --> 0:09:39.720 of your star players, but this is a star driven 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:41.960 league and this is not a good look for the 0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:45.319 NBA with what they've allowed the Clippers to do. It's 0:09:45.360 --> 0:09:48.280 not a good look, not at all. You can be physical, 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:53.079 there can be playoff basketball. Nothing with what the Clippers 0:09:53.120 --> 0:09:59.280 are doing is playoff basketball. What they said, how they've acted, 0:10:00.040 --> 0:10:02.880 and even how they've reacted here. I'm not going to 0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:06.839 apologize for bleep. Hey. If you if you really are 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:08.840 going to stand on your morals and the way you 0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:11.840 play the game, you might say, Man, I'm sorry, and 0:10:12.040 --> 0:10:13.840 I'm sorry I stepped on the back of his foot 0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:17.640 and that, you know, I know it sounds like I 0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:19.520 want you to know that it's just a coincidence. I 0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:21.839 didn't mean any harm with him, and I feel really bad. 0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:25.960 Like Montrese Harrold came over to Luca prior to the 0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:31.200 previous game to hug Luca because Doc Rivers said, go 0:10:31.320 --> 0:10:35.040 do it. Montrese Harold didn't have some epiphany and go. 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:36.760 You know, on second thought, I kind of called him 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:38.920 a lot of things that I probably shouldn't have done. 0:10:40.080 --> 0:10:43.600 Doc goes, hey, you should go over there and hug him. 0:10:43.760 --> 0:10:46.360 You know what that does. The NBA goes up, all good, 0:10:46.480 --> 0:10:49.439 nothing to see there, move on, like, let's play basketball. 0:10:50.160 --> 0:10:52.760 Not a good look, yeample, what have you great at? 0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:54.520 Marcus Morris went the oppos and go, yeah, I did 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:56.680 it on purpose. We're trying to win. He's the best player. 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:59.200 I'm averaging ten and four. It's worthy trade off. How 0:10:59.200 --> 0:11:00.840 do you think I stayed in the leg I have 0:11:00.920 --> 0:11:03.400 more respect for if you say that, Like, hey man, 0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:09.040 anything to win? Yeah, you know? All right? Uh new 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:12.439 poll question, right mcclemman. Okay, so here's the question. Actually, 0:11:12.440 --> 0:11:16.240 I'm gonna let PAULI stated special. Oh, I want to 0:11:16.280 --> 0:11:18.640 make it clear. Okay, yeah, this isn't gonna go well. 0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:21.040 I would get a little frustrated about the three point line. 0:11:21.120 --> 0:11:25.480 The crossover, crossover, crossover, step back three as basically the 0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:27.440 only offense in the NBA except for a few teams. 0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.320 If you could change one thing or leave it as 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:33.000 it is, get rid of the three point line, get 0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:35.640 rid of it makes the three point worth two and 0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:37.840 a half points, which I think is actually my choice 0:11:38.600 --> 0:11:42.080 because it de values the shot. Or leave things as is. 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:43.760 If you made the three pointer worth two and a 0:11:43.800 --> 0:11:46.120 half points, it would change basketball, so you could be 0:11:46.120 --> 0:11:49.040 winning like one twenty and a half to one nine. 0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:52.040 How do you did that? Gambling? Oh, if you push city, 0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:56.520 there's no more. Yeah. All. Speaking of gambling, the Danettes 0:11:56.640 --> 0:11:59.839 gambled and launched that Luca don Chick was going to 0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:05.040 go over twenty nine points yesterday after the show, and 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:06.719 we had made this bet that I was going to 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:09.040 take a pie to the face if Lucas scored over 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:11.280 twenty nine points. So I thought the Clippers would, you know, 0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:14.760 put the clamps on. Paulie comes out, he goes, Chris 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:19.199 stops porzingis not playing like that meant Lucas got to 0:12:19.240 --> 0:12:22.320 put up like forty shots, And I went, oh, no, 0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:25.040 it actually means the Clippers could just focus more on Luca. 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:28.880 And I'm dumb. Yes, McLevin. He took seventeen shots and 0:12:29.040 --> 0:12:31.960 fourteen free throws. You can't get to twenty eight with 0:12:32.080 --> 0:12:36.319 that many shots. Clippers did a really good job on him. Well. 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:39.079 He also he's very consistent from three I know, I'm 0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:42.120 Luca Bashard, but he still like thirty two percent. Yeah. No, 0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:45.760 they just double teamed him the whole night. They did 0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:47.440 what I said they should have done at the end 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.400 of the previous game, just double team him. Why does 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:52.840 it he hit free throws? Is I do not know. 0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:56.680 I do not know. I don't know if that's something mentally, 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.679 but as much he has he should be an eighty 0:12:59.720 --> 0:13:05.200 percent eighty percent plus free throw shooter should be and 0:13:05.360 --> 0:13:07.480 that's something you got to work on. Like the Greek freak. 0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:10.160 When you have the ball that often and you go 0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:13.240 to the line that many times, you're just giving away 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:17.400 points and you know the strategy is, I can put 0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:18.959 him on the line. I just don't want him to 0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:21.360 beat me with the jumper from three point range. But 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:25.560 Clippers picked up the victory. Tonight you got Blazers Lakers. 0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:28.320 As Lakers try to close things out, Thunder and Rockets 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:32.520 is must see TV for me, and I think the Blaze. Okay, 0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:36.120 there's a chance the Blazers can win tonight. There's always 0:13:36.120 --> 0:13:38.439 a chance. And I don't want people to go, oh, 0:13:38.440 --> 0:13:41.960 there's no chance they'll win. Okay, No, Damian Lillard. If 0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:47.120 they win tonight, what are we talking about tomorrow? Oh, 0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:49.959 they can't close you know, whatever it might be, they'll 0:13:50.000 --> 0:13:54.040 be the narrative of something negative about the Lakers. But 0:13:54.160 --> 0:13:58.400 you can't say no chance, can't but the Blazers Lakers tonight. 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:02.080 Thunder Rockets I am fascinated with, and Magic in the 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:04.680 Buck says the magic try to hold on for dear life. 0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:07.920 Jannis wins the Defensive Player of the Year, he'll win 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:12.240 the MVP. Did we find out where's Ethan. I threw 0:14:12.280 --> 0:14:15.680 this out there, and Ethan is always I don't even 0:14:15.720 --> 0:14:18.160 finish my sentences and he'll send me back his stat 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:24.600 last time. Or how many times have we had MVP 0:14:24.760 --> 0:14:28.600 Defensive Player of the Year, because I'm guessing Jordan did it. Yes, 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:31.080 MC club, I know that they're five players who've ever 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:36.960 won both awards before. Ethan knows that. Wow. Wow. Mclovin 0:14:37.080 --> 0:14:41.360 tried to restake his claim as the stats guy. Mike, 0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:43.160 I don't know which five players, by the way, but 0:14:43.240 --> 0:14:47.320 oh you don't know, do you know? I know, Michael. No. 0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.840 I saw that headline like, there's only five guys historically 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:53.480 we've ever done this, Michael Jordan being one of them. Okay, yeah, Paul, 0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:57.520 I'm sure Hakim was one of them. After that, you 0:14:57.560 --> 0:15:04.880 can finish out. Okay, so Kim and Mike, um, Kareem. 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:07.560 I think Kareem's on there too. Was that back in 0:15:07.640 --> 0:15:15.680 Milwaukee or maybe not? No? I'm sorry, uh yeah, because 0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:17.880 I don't think they had that award back in Kareem's day, 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:20.200 did they? Do you remember growing up with a defensive 0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:23.720 player year? No? Because why would I care about defense? Yeah? 0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:25.240 I don't think they had it because there's no old 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:29.440 timey guys on here. Yeah, it's uh, Kevin Garnett, Akim, 0:15:29.880 --> 0:15:34.080 Michael Jordan, and David Robinson. So did Michael do it twice? 0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:37.160 Well it doesn't. I Ethan might know that, but this 0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:39.520 is just guys who won MVPs and Defensive Player of 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:41.920 the Years in their careers, not at the same time. Okay, 0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:47.000 so David Robinson, No, no no, Kevin Garnett, Akim, Michael Jordan, 0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:49.160 and David Robinson. Oh right, yeah, David Robins. I wonder 0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:51.360 what year this started, because wouldn't a Kareem have done it? 0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:53.400 Maybe was he? I would have thought back in the 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:56.840 in the seventies, But I don't know if I like 0:15:56.960 --> 0:16:00.320 back then they didn't have all these awards. It's just 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:02.840 we got to give out fifty awards and then we 0:16:02.880 --> 0:16:05.720 can have an award show. I can only hand out 0:16:05.760 --> 0:16:07.640 three of them. Then it was like the award show 0:16:07.720 --> 0:16:11.760 ends after fifteen minutes. Nineteen eighty two, first Defensive Player 0:16:11.760 --> 0:16:13.960 of the Year was handed out. Yes, we can you 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:16.400 guess who won Defensive Player of the Year back to 0:16:16.480 --> 0:16:21.760 back eighty two eighty three seasons. He's a Bobby Jones, 0:16:22.520 --> 0:16:27.320 like a combo guard. More almost like a small forward. Yes, 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:31.280 if not Bobby Jones of Michael Cooper, Oh, good, guess 0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:35.640 he won it in eighty six for the Milwaukee Bucks. 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:39.800 Sydney Moncriffs, Right, Bobby Jones used to always be like 0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:42.560 defensive Player of the Year. It felt like they didn't 0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:45.920 have the award under that name. NBA Defensive Player of 0:16:45.920 --> 0:16:48.040 the Year awards started eighty two eighty three with Moncrieff, 0:16:48.040 --> 0:16:52.160 then Eaton, Alvin Robinson, Robertson, Michael Cooper, Michael Jordan, Mark Eaton. 0:16:54.720 --> 0:16:57.600 But these guys won the award. They won both awards 0:16:57.600 --> 0:17:01.400 in the same season. Jordan won same season, Elijah One 0:17:01.440 --> 0:17:03.280 won it the same season. I don't know if these 0:17:03.280 --> 0:17:05.560 other guys won the MVP and Defensive Player of the 0:17:05.600 --> 0:17:10.240 Year in the same year. Yes, Ethan is working on it. 0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:13.280 I hope is yadis related a defensive Player of the Year. 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:14.840 That's what I wanted to ask, Like I don't think 0:17:14.880 --> 0:17:18.639 of him as like I don't. Yeah, Like it's funny, 0:17:18.680 --> 0:17:20.720 like it's not obvious, like Rudy Gobert. I just see 0:17:20.760 --> 0:17:23.960 him black, you know, blocking every shot that I would surprise. 0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:28.000 It's a little bit by this, like a landslide too. Yeah, 0:17:28.240 --> 0:17:30.280 you know, but the stifled towers one or a couple 0:17:30.320 --> 0:17:34.399 of times, right, Yeah, so I don't know. Once again, 0:17:35.480 --> 0:17:38.760 understand that writers and voters won a good story. If 0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:41.320 you've already given it to Rudy Gobert a couple of times, 0:17:42.000 --> 0:17:43.840 you give it to the Greek freak. Hey, and we're 0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:46.000 gonna have him the MVP and defensive Player in the 0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:49.480 same year. Not that he's not deserving, it's just that's 0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:52.280 why when Charles Barkley won the MVP and Karl Malone 0:17:52.320 --> 0:17:55.680 won the MVP, and I caught grief in both of 0:17:55.720 --> 0:17:59.320 those cities those years because I said, I voted for 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:03.000 Michael George because I looked at value when I went 0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:07.960 Jordan is gonna win the m He's gonna win a championship, Yes, Paul, 0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:10.040 He's gonna say. Nobody stopped more shouts of Rudy Gobert 0:18:10.160 --> 0:18:16.960 this year. Technically wow, Wow, he's a shock. It's too 0:18:17.000 --> 0:18:21.480 soon for pandemic. Hum. Yeah. If he changes his name, 0:18:21.880 --> 0:18:24.440 what if he what if he put his name as 0:18:24.520 --> 0:18:32.880 COVID and his number was nineteen. Oh, dear me, dang, 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:36.320 just thinking out loud, that's all. Philip Rivers said to 0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:39.320 join us. I'd love I'm gonna listen in as Todd 0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:42.040 tries to act like he likes Philip Rivers. I do 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:44.280 like him a lot more than East Well, you hated 0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:47.000 him before. I love the interviews, but when he comes 0:18:47.000 --> 0:18:49.040 on the show, he's great with you and I like him, 0:18:49.040 --> 0:18:50.479 And now that he's out of the AFC West, I'm 0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:52.960 more comfortable rooting for him. All right, all right, Ryan 0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:54.879 and Illinois? Hey Ryan, what do you have for me? 0:18:57.280 --> 0:19:02.520 Adp Hey? Ryan? Second time, long time six four two sixty. 0:19:04.600 --> 0:19:07.359 In defense to Coach Coal and the amount of talent 0:19:07.440 --> 0:19:10.080 he's had come through Kentucky, you gotta taken a consideration. 0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:12.320 A lot of those players you named weren't on the 0:19:12.400 --> 0:19:15.480 same squads, and he's still trying to get eighteen year 0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:18.760 olds to break the AAU mentality and buy into the 0:19:18.760 --> 0:19:22.800 team concept. I think Coach Cole's biggest myths as far 0:19:22.840 --> 0:19:25.840 as talented rosters was the year he had Boogie cousins 0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:29.560 John Wall and Eric Bloodsoe and Drop dropped a bad 0:19:29.600 --> 0:19:31.920 one to West Virginia. I think, I mean, come on, Ryan, 0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:36.880 you you can accidentally win a title with that much talent. Yeah, 0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:39.280 that's true, but you're still trying to get eighteen year 0:19:39.280 --> 0:19:41.080 olds to you know, he knows that they're there for 0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:44.720 one year and about I'm just being a Kentucky apologist. 0:19:46.080 --> 0:19:48.199 All right, that's fine, Ryan, you should have led with 0:19:48.280 --> 0:19:52.080 I'm a Kentucky apologist there. I went down the roster 0:19:52.160 --> 0:19:54.560 because you know, you just start to think sometimes and 0:19:54.720 --> 0:19:58.399 you go Jamal Jamal Murray, Like we're talking about Devin Booker, 0:19:58.480 --> 0:20:03.680 and I go, Jamal Murray is dominating. Yeah, mclub. I'm 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:05.919 like he had a roster from twenty fifteen. They had 0:20:05.960 --> 0:20:10.320 Devin Booker, Carley ath Any Towns, Willie Cally signed, Trey Lyles, Tyler, 0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:14.159 u Liss, Marcus Lee, Trey, I mean, Andrew, the Harrison Twins. 0:20:15.560 --> 0:20:18.040 But how did Devin book I'd call Anthony Towns not 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:23.879 I know that. I mean, that's that's an incredible amount 0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:27.280 of talent that's gone through. Does Duke have the same 0:20:27.359 --> 0:20:30.439 kind of talent that's gone through there? Is it comparable 0:20:30.600 --> 0:20:37.880 to Kentucky now with Zion RJ. Barrett? I mean, You've 0:20:37.880 --> 0:20:43.120 had some guys, but it's Kentucky has guys who don't 0:20:43.119 --> 0:20:46.440 even get to start, who get drafted and that's when 0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:48.359 you got a lot of talent there. All right, let 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:50.600 me take a break. Philip Rivers is set to Jonas, 0:20:50.680 --> 0:20:55.359 a Colts quarterback. And also we'll check in with our 0:20:55.400 --> 0:20:58.000 good buddy Chris Haynes from the Bubble, because there was 0:20:58.080 --> 0:21:00.920 talk yesterday by some of the play on the Celtics 0:21:00.960 --> 0:21:03.639 and the Raptors of maybe sitting out a game in 0:21:03.760 --> 0:21:07.399 protest to what happened to Jacob Blake who was shot 0:21:07.480 --> 0:21:10.720 seven times in the back in Wisconsin. So we'll take 0:21:10.760 --> 0:21:13.000 a break, we'll talk some football with Philip Rivers. Your 0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:15.000 phone calls are always welcome.
