But I just wanted to bring up 24 00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: the PGA Championship for one reason. We had a guest 25 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: during football season on here named Rufus Peabody, and he 26 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,760 Speaker 1: is like the foremost golf gambler in America. That is 27 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: not an exaggeration. Rufus posted a bet that he made 28 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: on a gentleman named Mito Pereira. I'd never heard of 29 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 1: Meto Pereira before. You know. This weekend he was plus 30 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: thirty thousand to win the PGA Championship. He is leading 31 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: going into the eighteen toll.

Rufus Peabody, 33 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: a guest on this podcast, had five hundred dollars to 34 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: win a hundred and fifty thousand on Meto Pereira, and 35 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: Meto choked folks five to win one k. He You're 36 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: damn right. Rufus Peabody knows a little something about golf. 37 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:11,959 Speaker 1: I'll try to get him back on the pot. I 38 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: haven't talked to him really since but holy hell, I 39 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: don't know how he's feeling this morning, But I don't 40 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: know how I would handle that. I mean, I'm sure 41 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: people are gonna hit him up. Why didn't you Hedge? 42 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 1: Did you? Hedge? Could you have? But like, oh, he 43 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: needs a par Like can you in game golf? Hedge 44 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 1: that quickly heading into the hole, like, oh poor guy. 45 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,239 Speaker 1: But any rate, you guys aren't tuning in for golf, 46 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: obviously you're here to hear about my basketball league. Um, 47 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: we are running things like we're the Warriors and everyone 48 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: else is the maths. We were playing the team that 49 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 1: went nine and one last season. They one of the 50 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: guys on their team told me they lost in the 51 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: championship to a team that's not even in the league 52 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: this year. So this is the best team. And we 53 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: saw a little bit of them last week and they 54 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 1: looked pretty good. Now they were missing a couple of guys. 55 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: One guy said we were down three starters. I just 56 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 1: kind of shrugged at him. Um, we were losing initially 57 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: as like I don't know, twelve eight or what, twelve six, whatever, 58 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: And we end up halftimes three and end of the 59 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: game eight three. You know, we destroy them now they 60 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: didn't have any subs, you know, not my mess, and 61 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: I thought we were down our best three guys and 62 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: my buddy who um is the three point marks And 63 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 1: I'm sure you've seen the videos on Instagram. I like 64 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: to think I'm the best shooter on the team. He's 65 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 1: better than me. I will concede that he is better 66 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: than me. And you know, Rob, You're gonna love this. 67 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: So he has a guy who is like a residence. 68 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: He's in a residency program, or maybe he's like a doctor. 69 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: I don't even know what he is, but he's like 70 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: thirty seven years old and he's come and play with 71 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: us before pickup. He's like six four, white guy thin. 72 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: He reminds me of pal Gasoul a little bit in that, 73 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: you know, for for Recle Coops, in that he's tall, 74 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: he's fundamentally sound, he moves his feet great, a good defender. 75 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: And then he comes out. You know, we had we 76 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: needed in today because a couple of guys are hurt, 77 00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: and this guy comes out and I'm like, you know, wow, 78 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: So then I get the backstory. He played high school. 79 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 1: Obviously he was all c I F whatever that is 80 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: in California. He gets up, he gets a scholarship to 81 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: Long Beach State. This guy's like six five as a 82 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 1: two guard, and he went there for a year and 83 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,160 Speaker 1: then gotten like, uh, you know, had some car accident 84 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: or something, and then I transfer ended up playing in 85 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: Germany after college, played in the second division in Germany. 86 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 1: And so the other team last night had one guy 87 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: who could go like it was obvious. He's like twenty 88 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: four years old, really slick handle. I knew from the 89 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: jump I wanted to get all up in him, and 90 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: you know, we had like a little bumping going on. 91 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:34,840 Speaker 1: He didn't like that, but I knew I wanted to 92 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,279 Speaker 1: send a message, We're gonna be all up in your 93 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: jersey all night. And I started it. Then I handed 94 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: him off to two other guys. Eventually our big guy, Michael, 95 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: the new dude, is like, let me take him, and 96 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,559 Speaker 1: the guy could not get by this guy. Now again, 97 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: Michael has like grayst black hair and he's super long, 98 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: and I'm telling you he I was stunned. It was 99 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: just like jaw dropping watch this guy trying to go. 100 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 1: So anyways, weven by thirty and I think we're gonna 101 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: ask league. Hey, you know, we've never played in this league. Before. 102 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: There's some good players, but you know we're gonna beat 103 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: everybody by twenty plus. Can we get bumped up to 104 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 1: the to the top division and maybe someone wants to 105 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: kick down, so we'll see if that. If that happens, 106 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys are waiting on pins and needles 107 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: for that. But what Rob and I are really going 108 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: to talk about on the podcast, of course, is the 109 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors. And there's a few ways to take this. 110 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: If you remember last week, Kevin Durant slid into my 111 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: d m s. What's my narrative if the Warriors lose? 112 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 1: Warriors have gone to a O since that, they're now 113 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: a three nothing on the MAVs. And as much as 114 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: I like Luka don chech, I did compare this to 115 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: Lebron against the San Antonio Spurs. They got swept. Everybody's 116 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: Lebron is not ready for it. Lebron carried those those 117 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: seven calves. I know they were a little weaker and 118 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: we're a little inferior to this team, but the point 119 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: of me reigns this MAVs team does not have another 120 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: All Star. Okay, it is the Luca show, and Luca 121 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: was outstanding again. He I mean, he had a lot 122 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: of points late, but the supporting cast isn't there. When 123 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 1: Bullock and Cleeber combined to shoot over fift over twelve 124 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: and three, you ain't got a chance, no, like none. 125 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: And I was off on this game, folks. Uh. It's 126 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: been a rough weekend for me, the last three days 127 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: of of n M NBA gambling. Everything that worked in 128 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: the first two rounds, it ain't working now. Game three, 129 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: MAVs go home. I like, give me the MAVs first half. 130 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: They're gonna come out on fire. They'll come out It's 131 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 1: worked so well first two rounds. Almost every game when 132 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: it's oh two, you take the home team first half. 133 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: And I said, you know what, full game. MAVs played 134 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 1: out of their minds in game two and blew the 135 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: game and blew the cover. That hurt, But they'll show 136 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: up at home and third quarter. Warriors, by the way, 137 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: covered first half. And then the Warriors came out and 138 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 1: it was the Steph Curry Show. And it was this 139 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 1: gentleman by the name of Andrew Wiggins playing the role 140 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,120 Speaker 1: of Harrison Barnes from back in the day. Wiggins, he 141 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: seven and eleven had a thunderous dunk on Luka don 142 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: just that was called a charge, but I did get 143 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: four text messages from friends. Your boy Luca just got posterized. 144 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, are you gonna be able to say 145 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: mean things that you know, like guys rubbing it in that? 146 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,559 Speaker 1: I love Luca and Andrew Wiggins put him on a poster. 147 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: Then he had a Wiggins had a dunk back. And 148 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: if Andrew Wiggins has giving you twenty seven and eleven, yeah, 149 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: like Warriors are not losing. Clay Thompson continues to be 150 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 1: a shell of himself. Six of eighteen, Curry the most consistent. 151 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: I said it on Cowherd Show Friday, Jordan Pool is 152 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: gonna be hit and miss Jordan Pool at ten points. 153 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: Clay Thompson is gonna hit and missed. That's where he 154 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: is now. I mean he finished with nineteen, but it 155 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: was nineteen on eighteen shots, Curry is going to be 156 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: the consistent one thirty one and eleven, five threes and 157 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: then Wiggins gives you twenty seven. You're not losing. Kevon 158 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: Looney having a solid series, Draymond Green exceeding expectations and 159 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: at three oh, Kevin Durant had to have watched that 160 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: in bed night. Damn tough A couple of weeks ahead 161 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: from my Instagram in box listen Warriors one before Durant. 162 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: They're going back to the finals. Now who they're gonna 163 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: face in the finals? Rob, we'll talk about Celtics Heat. 164 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: I thought the Celtics were in there, and then Game 165 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: three happens. You're like, oh, this is the bamount of 166 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: bio that I thought would show up that had not 167 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: shown up. And if it's Heat Warriors, folks, I love 168 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: the Golden State Warriors. I like the Miami Heat a lot. Rob, Miami. 169 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: He will have no chance against Golden State, not with 170 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 1: Max s Trusson, Gabe Vincent, against Steph Curry and the 171 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 1: pool party. I'm a little disappointed in these playoffs having 172 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: any good games. Robin so waiting like it feels like 173 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,959 Speaker 1: a fad a company. The Warriors are going to the finals, Yeah, 174 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: I mean, well, we'll get into the Celtics Heat here 175 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: in a few minutes. But I'm not ready the same. 176 00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: Miami's going to the finals. I think that Jimmy bow 177 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: but even though he's supposed to play in Game four, um, 178 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: the fact that they've only wanted two quarters This entire 179 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,679 Speaker 1: series against Boston to me is telling. It's more about Boston, 180 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: you know, self combusting one each game really really big 181 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: um so. But we'll get into that in a few minutes. 182 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 1: This Golden State Warriors team is baffling to me because 183 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: them being up three oh in the Western Conference Finals 184 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: would make you to believe that this is one of 185 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: the great teams in NBA history. But you don't. Here 186 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: we go with the Warriors like you don't, you don't. 187 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: You don't see that right when you get to this level, 188 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: these are supposed to be the best teams. If it's 189 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: a short series, it goes five, you know what I mean, 190 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 1: and each game is close. The Warriors have been the 191 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: better team over Dallas this entire time. I get like 192 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 1: we're it. Not for Luka don Che scoring twenty plus 193 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, this one would have been a 194 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: laugh for last night anyway. But I still watching this 195 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: Warrior's team. I don't think they're an all time great team. 196 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: I don't think there anywhere close to the Warriors that 197 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: we saw with Kevin Durant. I don't think there anywhere 198 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: close to the seventy three one team that blew that 199 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: three one lead in the finals. They just happened to 200 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: catch your Kis without his second and third guy, John 201 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: Mark gets hurt. And to your point, this is way 202 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 1: ahead schedule on the Luca dontch MAVs. So I'm not 203 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 1: going to say that the Sea parted for them because 204 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: they're they're obviously a really good team. I just don't 205 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: get the vibe that they are one of the team's 206 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 1: gonna remember for it for a long time. I don't know. 207 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 1: So the Golden State, Okay, that's fair. So the Warriors, right, no, 208 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: Jamal MURRAINO Michael Porter, John is three games in the NFL. 209 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: We always say, well, you know, you can only beat 210 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 1: who's in front of you, and you know what, the 211 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 1: Javones are gonna stay out there, Rob, Right, well, this 212 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: is shades of the old Warriors. Well in they catch Kyrie, 213 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: Irvin get hurt, Kevin Love gets hurt, and this guy 214 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 1: gets hurt all this stuff. At what point, though, Rob, 215 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 1: do you say, okay, well, but stuff happens. But they 216 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: did win for one, four, two, and now three. Oh, 217 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 1: so they are eleven and three in the playoffs. Now 218 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 1: they haven't faced the team with the best record, the 219 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: Phoenix Suns. They will not face them because they gagged. 220 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 1: But how good is Phoenix if they couldn't beat Dallas? 221 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: So uh, you know, I get that logic. I'll tell 222 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: you right now. Like I didn't think either the Bucks 223 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: or the Suns last year were great historically great teams, 224 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: and people will say, oh, look, and the Bucks didn't 225 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 1: even have Middleton for their series, so like everybody was 226 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 1: kind of weakened. We haven't heard the full Chris Paul 227 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 1: injury b S story. You know that's coming, so listen. 228 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: I am. I'm I'm in the tank for the Warriors, 229 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: so I'll defend them. I understand where people are coming from. 230 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: But this was still a fifty three win team, right, Yes, 231 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:00,080 Speaker 1: they're no slouch. No, and I agree. I think they 232 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: are a very good team. I think they're They're easily 233 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: one of the best teams from this season. But during 234 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,720 Speaker 1: last night's game and especially after the game, you're seeing 235 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: a lot of things on social media from prominente NBA voices, 236 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 1: a lot of them in the Bay Area saying, see, 237 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,280 Speaker 1: this is what I mean when I say that, you know, 238 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: it's really hard to beat Steph Clay and Draymond four 239 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: at a seven, Like you have to be generationally great 240 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: to do it. And it's like, well, season when they 241 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: actually did win the championship, everybody was hurt on the 242 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: way there, they lose the next season to Lebron, and 243 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 1: then they get k D. So I don't know if 244 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: that necessarily holds water, you know, that argument to begin with. 245 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: But I feel like we've been cheated this season with 246 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 1: with the way these playoffs have gone, you know, even 247 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 1: discounting my Lakers being out of it in Lebron, but 248 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: you know, uh, Kyrie and Kevin Durant and that whole 249 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 1: drama that that played out the way it did, So 250 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:56,480 Speaker 1: you knew that in there too. If yeah, that you 251 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: knew that it wasn't gonna work out because they just 252 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: didn't have any chemistry. Um, you know, the Chris Middleton 253 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: getting hurt. Uh, the Denver Nuggets missing their two best 254 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 1: players all season. Uh, you know, it's it just seems 255 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: like we we haven't seen the best versions have to 256 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 1: face each other throughout any of these playoffs. I mean, 257 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: this series, I guess would be the closest comparison. But 258 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: as you've been saying now for a week, this is 259 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: very two thousand seven Lebron esque Luca Dodges that we're getting. 260 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 1: This is not one of those teams where it's like, hey, 261 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,559 Speaker 1: I can't wait to see Phoenix and Golden State. I 262 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: can't wait to see you know, Brooklyn and Milwaukee had 263 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 1: we have gotten there, if they were all fully ready 264 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: to go, because it seems like every series that we 265 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: get someone's missing, or someone's hurt, or you can tell 266 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: in this case, this team is just not quite ready 267 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,679 Speaker 1: for this bright life that seems to happen a lot now. 268 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: Jason Kidd leveled up after the game and said this 269 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: that we're facing a dyning sty and I'm sure some 270 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 1: people will give pause, and I'm sure some people are 271 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: gonna blast that, you know, the typical guys who are 272 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 1: trying to like make a name off blasting the Warriors, like, 273 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: good luck with that. You've been You've embarrassed yourself for 274 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: you know, over five years now, and that includes Charles Barkley. 275 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 1: People want to say they're not a dynasty, Like folks, 276 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 1: go find the number of teams that have been in 277 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: the finals five times in a row. Then go tell 278 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: me teams that have been in the finals six times 279 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: in eight years. I mean, the list is not long, 280 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: it's eighties Lakers, it's I think eighties Celtics, and it's 281 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bulls. And Michael Jordan did not even do 282 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: six times in eight years because Michael Jordan had to quit. 283 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: So Michael Jordan made the final six times. That's it. 284 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: Steph Curry has now reached the finals, well sorry, one 285 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: game away from reaching the finals as many times as 286 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's. And then Steph, if they keep the excuse me, 287 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: if they keep this going right, they're really no reason 288 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: to think they cannot. I know, the West is stacked, 289 00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: and Denver's gonna be better, and the Clippers, by the way, 290 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 1: they're gonna be back, and let's not bury the Lakers. 291 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: But I mean, seriously, go find the players who have 292 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: made the finals six times. Drop the list cannot be 293 00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 1: that long. Steph Curry is in really really rarefied air here, 294 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: and you know, we start talking about guys who want 295 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 1: to crack the top ten. I thought Durant was very close. 296 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: Steph ads of finals MVP here. That's the only thing 297 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: missing right from from the resume, right, like what can 298 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: you where's the knock on Curry? Like where is it? 299 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: I want to hear it. He's part of a dynasty. 300 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: I would argue the greatest dynasty since the sixties Celtics, 301 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: who did it when they were like ten teams in 302 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: the league. This is better a better dynasty than Jordan's 303 00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: Bulls who made the finals three times, then not the 304 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: next two years and then three more and that was it. 305 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: Like we're talking about one of the greatest teams, either 306 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 1: the greatest or are one of the greatest in the 307 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: last fifty years. And and and we still want to 308 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: poke holes with the wildlife. They don't have to face 309 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: the ball Murray, you know, John Morant mry Like, what 310 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 1: the hell is John Maranta Like, I I just I 311 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: get upset when the Warriors slander begins. Um, Rob, It's 312 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: just it's it seems unseemly in us and unnecessary. Yeah, 313 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: I mean I want to push back because I've been 314 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: very pro Warrior slander for a long time. Um, in 315 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: this case, I'm not going to go so far say 316 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: they're not a dynasty or that they're not You know, 317 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 1: the Steph Curry era has not been one of the 318 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: more entertaining and delightful things to watch, even as a 319 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,040 Speaker 1: Laker fan. You know, there's few guys that will tune 320 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: in to watch when they're cooking more than Steph Curry. 321 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in 322 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: the nation.

And we talked 329 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 1: last week about who would you rather start a team 330 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 1: with Luca or Tatum? And I said Tatum because I 331 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: feel like he's a It's a cleaner build around him 332 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: than Luca. Having watched last night's game and this series 333 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: as a whole, do you get the sense that Luca 334 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: Donche is going to be able to win a championship 335 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: the way that he's playing now, even if he gets better, 336 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: because only twenty three do you see him reaching that 337 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: mountaintop with this style of basketball. I need all Dallas 338 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: Mavericks fans to era muff this. I was gonna save 339 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: this for after they lost. I didn't think anyone would 340 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 1: go here, but rob Lebron could not win the title 341 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 1: in Cleveland, right, he takes them to the finals with 342 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 1: that week supporting cast. The next summer, I'm pretty sure 343 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,120 Speaker 1: it was the next summer Orlando leveled up. I think 344 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 1: they that's when they added either Hdo, Turko Lou or 345 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 1: Richard Williams, the guy who Rochard Lewis I'm sorry, who 346 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: had all the threes and Orlando beat him, right, And 347 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:19,639 Speaker 1: then the next year Boston gets it super Team Orlando 348 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,240 Speaker 1: made the finals with a loss of the Lakers. The 349 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: next year, the Celtics created dynasty with any age Lebron 350 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 1: had to leave. Are you seeing where I'm going? It's 351 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 1: gonna be very tough for Luca don Chech to win 352 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: a title in Dallas. I don't think he necessarily needs 353 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 1: to change his style, because did Lebron really change anything 354 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 1: in the year they went to the finals and then 355 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 1: in the next three years ending up in Miami, Like, 356 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: I don't really think he changed much. He was still 357 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: the creator, score rebounder. He just needs to find the 358 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: right parts around him. And that's gonna be tough. Because 359 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 1: this is my concern, and this is why I was 360 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: open to save this. I'm of the belief that yes, 361 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: they are ahead of schedule with the Mass and the 362 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,719 Speaker 1: West is gonna be infinitely tougher next year. We know 363 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: the Lakers are doing something again. The Clippers are going 364 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: to be very good with Kawai and Paul George. The 365 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 1: MAVs are going to be very good. I'm sorry, not 366 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: the Mans. The Nuggets are going to be very good. 367 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,120 Speaker 1: The Sons probably are gonna be very good again. Like, 368 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 1: I don't think we even go into next season with 369 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: the MAVs top four in the West. I like them 370 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: a lot, I'll root for them, but there's no quick 371 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: fix here. I mean, Rob can Is Bradley Beale gonna 372 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: gonna like put them over the top, like they need 373 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: more wings and those just you can't find those guys 374 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 1: on trees. They don't. They're not easy to find. Absolutely. 375 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: I think Lucas more likely to have to leave it 376 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,280 Speaker 1: with a title elsewhere than in Dallas, unless that fun 377 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: office is able to somehow find him a running bait. 378 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,359 Speaker 1: Remember they tried with Porzingis. That was a whiff, but 379 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,199 Speaker 1: it was a good try, right. I like Jalen Brunson 380 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 1: a lot. I think Dinwood he's good, but I don't 381 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: know that that could be here two and three and 382 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: win a championship. Brunson's your three and didn We's you're four? Great? 383 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: But how are you gonna find it too? Who's the guy? 384 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: Can it be Zach Lavine? My guy, Zach Lavine? I 385 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,679 Speaker 1: don't know how they're getting him. Give up all the 386 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: draft picks and anybody but Brunson and did Woody or 387 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,880 Speaker 1: even I guess you could tossed in Woody. Can Zach 388 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: Lavine be a number two? We know he's not a 389 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: number one, but I love you know, I love these exactly. 390 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 1: Does he defended a high enough level? Rob? I mean, 391 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,280 Speaker 1: I can't slander a future Laker Zach Levine right now 392 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 1: because you know LaVar Ball already guaranteed that he's coming 393 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: back to Los Angeles, so I can't say anything anymore. 394 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,919 Speaker 1: I need a guy who's a guy. That's a good question. 395 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: I mean. And this is it's not to pour cold 396 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 1: water on the MAVs because you know, we'll we'll explore 397 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: this later, you know, once they actually get eliminated and 398 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: what they can do going forward. But we all thought, hey, 399 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: you know, even if they don't do anything this year, 400 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 1: that the futures brag with Luca Dangi. He's twenty three 401 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: years old. He's, argue belie, the best player in the league, 402 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: easily top five at worst. We saw what happened last 403 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: year with Trey Young in the Hawks. The tree Young 404 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: is not as good as Luka done. But you're like, hey, 405 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:13,199 Speaker 1: they're ahead of schedule, give him another year. Watch what happens. 406 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,719 Speaker 1: They're going to build on this even and did anyone 407 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: take a bigger step back than at Lanta outside let 408 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: me let me get a twenty second time out. I'm 409 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 1: forgetting this. Did the Hawks do anything different in the 410 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 1: off season? Did they just say? Right? So? I think 411 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 1: that's the message there, right is you can't Well here's 412 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: the thing, just I mean, quick cursory look Basketball Reference 413 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: the payroll salary cap table for the MAVs going forward 414 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: next season, not even counting Jalen Brnson, they have a 415 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty one million dollars accounted for three again, 416 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: not counting Jalen Brenson, who's gonna get at least twenty 417 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,679 Speaker 1: million dollars as eason, they have a hundred and twenty 418 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: one So once they made that din witty move, well, 419 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: going back when they made the Portzingish trade and he 420 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,159 Speaker 1: had all that money. It didn't work out, and for 421 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: that long of a time they had to cut their losses. 422 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: Get Dan Woodie, who's fine but at his best on 423 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: a great team. He's what a sixth man probably, which 424 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,120 Speaker 1: he is on this team even you know, he's not 425 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: really gonna put you over the top unless you're your second, third, 426 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,719 Speaker 1: fourth guys are tremendous and and this team is built 427 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: solely around the skills of Luca Donches. It's nothing but 428 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: three and D guys. Oh we're forgetting No, we're forgetting 429 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: Tim Hardaway Jr. Is added to the mix next year. 430 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,680 Speaker 1: He probably is a three, right, a third best guy, 431 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:45,360 Speaker 1: not a He's obviously a great shooter. Um, I'm I'm 432 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: with you. I'm looking at the chart now. So Hardaway 433 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 1: is obviously a big step up. What about this, Let 434 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 1: me just float this. Would you consider like a Dwight 435 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 1: Powell who's going to be an expiring next year and 436 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: a sign in trade with Jalen Brunson in exchange for 437 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: Julius Randall who seems unhappy, and then you have Julius 438 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 1: Randall be your small ball five or is that just 439 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: taking more Knicks damaged goods. No, I think Julius Randall 440 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 1: is good. I think could actually be a good fit 441 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 1: next to Luca. The problem though, is Jalen Brunson is 442 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 1: clearly your second best player. So are you really getting 443 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 1: that much better by getting rid of your second best 444 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,360 Speaker 1: player for another second bed player. What they really need 445 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: is a guy to slide in and be the number two. 446 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 1: So Jalen Brenton slides down to three or four? Well, well, 447 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 1: in this scenario would be Luca one, Randall, too Hardaway three, 448 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: Dinwitty four? Does that? Yeah? Tim Hardaway junior At this stage, 449 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,919 Speaker 1: he'll be what thirty one next season coming off of 450 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,120 Speaker 1: a major injury. You know, I don't know if if 451 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: I'm really counting on him to be that level of 452 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: a player going forward. I mean, there's just no quick 453 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 1: fix with their team. I mean, they are one of 454 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: those teams that is going to have to Pola Los 455 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: Angeles Clippers and say screw it. Here's seven years of 456 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:14,360 Speaker 1: draft picks two whoever Portland's Dame Lillard or I don't 457 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: know wherever start that they can get because I just 458 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: don't see them being able to win at the highest 459 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: level when it's all Luca all the time with a 460 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: bunch of guys around him. So you would make a 461 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 1: play for Dame Lillard. I don't know, just somebody by 462 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 1: all the indications Portland's wants to try to do. Hey, 463 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 1: we've got Dame. Let's see if there's any way, shape 464 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: or form we could just add two pieces around Dame. 465 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: We like Anthony Simmons, by the way, he's like a 466 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,199 Speaker 1: Jordan Pool. I think that that's a fair comparison, right, 467 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 1: Simmons maybe a little better, but there's not a huge difference. 468 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,080 Speaker 1: And maybe they say, hey, we let's make a move. 469 00:24:56,200 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: Let's let's get zach Levine, Dame zach Levine. Anthony's time 470 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: is like I don't know, maybe they make a play 471 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 1: for Julius Randall. It's a tough one, man. It's very 472 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: difficult to add a number two because they're not out 473 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: there easily attainable, right, um, do you I mean, do 474 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: you try to make some hail marry to the Lakers? Hey, 475 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: do you guys want to get rid of Anthony Davis? 476 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: Like I don't know, Like, are you sick of him 477 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: getting hurt all the time? Or as that another Hey, 478 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: we already had Porzinga's we've seen that movie before. No thanks, Um, 479 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 1: I don't know Anthony does Anthony Davis? Is that even 480 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: worth a shot? I don't know who you're giving Like, 481 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: are the Lakers taking Brunson and Hardaway and Dwight Powell? 482 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 1: And yeah, you're not giving away. I don't know who 483 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: on that roster. They'd want you to do something like 484 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 1: that though, you'd have to do something like that because 485 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: I know Luca's only twenty three, He's got his best 486 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: years ahead of him. But when you have a talent 487 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: like that every year that you don't push all in 488 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: if you're just wasting him. Okay, so look at the 489 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 1: if I mean again, people are not gonna like when 490 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 1: I compare Luca to Lebron. But if Luca is in 491 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: the Lebron sphere without the defense, how did they build 492 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: around Lebron? They added Chris Bosh and Dwayne Wade. Somebody 493 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: had to be the three took a kind of took 494 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:20,679 Speaker 1: a step back, and then they had Kyrie Irving and 495 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,360 Speaker 1: Kevin Love. Kevin Love took a step back. You need 496 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: one big and like another guard slash creator. Is that 497 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: out there and easily attainable? Could Julius Randall be the 498 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: big and you find another wing like Zach Levine, but 499 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: you have to basically give up your entire roster to 500 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: get Randall and Levine. And then, like Lebron did, you 501 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: have to find guys who want to play with you 502 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,720 Speaker 1: and just come in and hit threes. Now, I'll say 503 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: this about the Clippers. I know we haven't talked a 504 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: lot about them because they're you know, obviously Paul George 505 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 1: got COVID right before the playing game and they lost. 506 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 1: But the Clippers have done an amazing job of finding 507 00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: dudes to put around your weapons. Norm Powell, Marcus Morris, 508 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: Robert Covington had like a turn back to the Clock season, 509 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 1: Reggie Jackson off the scrap Heap, Terrence Man like they 510 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: are loaded with role players. Uh and I didn't even 511 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: mention the immortal Luke Kennard Um. But you know they 512 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 1: got the wings like you basically need that. And when 513 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: you have three Max deals, rob like, you can't afford 514 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 1: a lot of missus like the Lakers had this year. 515 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: Um who was the guy that I joked about, Kendrick Nunn, 516 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 1: Like he was supposed to be one of those key 517 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: role guys not making a lot of money and he 518 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 1: did not play one game. Like. You can't have that 519 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: happen if you're Dallas. Now, Luckily Mark Cubans willing to 520 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 1: go into the tax right, he don't care. He's gonna spend. 521 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 1: He's gonna be a bomber um. So I guess there's 522 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 1: a tiny chance they pull it off, but I think 523 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: we'll be spending a lot of time on the trade machine. 524 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 1: Oh I forgot Nick Patuma with the Clippers. I mean, 525 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 1: that guy's these sides what you want, right, And they 526 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: got him for the minimum because he was a buyout 527 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: and they got him for the minimum. That's how you 528 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: build around your two superstars. Just like that. They did 529 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: a great job. I just I don't know if Dallas 530 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: can pull it off.

He's making money while you do it. Here's 536 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,840 Speaker 1: your best bat. All right, let's go to tonight's game. 537 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,199 Speaker 1: So Rob, I was, you know, out of town, and 538 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: I was at a restaurant when the game was on, 539 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: but I obviously was not locked in watching every single play. 540 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 1: You made a great point that Miami has only one 541 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: two quarters. A bunch of other quarters in the series 542 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: have been tied, but Miami has won two quarters. That's it. 543 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: But they've been so big and overwhelming that Boston hasn't 544 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: been able to come back. Now there are injuries galore. 545 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler obviously the biggest. But Tatum got injuredy at 546 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: a brutal game three or fourteen. We know he bounces back. 547 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: Marcus Smart went down, he came back. Jalen Brown went 548 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: for forty. That was like one of the quieter forties 549 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 1: that I can recall. You know what John Maran scored forty. 550 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: You know when Steph Curry scored forty. You know, Luca, 551 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: you get it. I didn't know Jalen Brown at forty. 552 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: He just kept scoring getting to the line. But so 553 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: you think Boston balance is back tonight. Huh Yeah, I 554 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: definitely think they do. I think that they have been 555 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 1: the better team throughout this series. But like just like 556 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: we talked about, in the playoffs, especially against good teams, 557 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: you cannot afford to be that bad at any quarter, 558 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if it's first, third, whatever. You can have 559 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,479 Speaker 1: bad quarters and lose it by six, lose it by eight, whatever. 560 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 1: Things like that happened. But when you're having what I 561 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,320 Speaker 1: think it was in Game one, they called it historically 562 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: the worst third quarter in NBA playoff history. You know, 563 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: Game three, your home court, you're you're coming back, You're 564 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: feeling great after winning games too, especially the way you 565 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: did it, and you fall behind. My seventeen and the 566 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 1: first six minutes like those cannot happen in a playoff 567 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: game at all. This is not you know, February basketball, 568 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: where everyone is going through the motions and you can 569 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: get hot for a few minutes. It's not gonna happen 570 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. So I like Boston tonight. Interesting. Um. 571 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: Just to go back to Warriors MAVs. The line for 572 00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 1: Game three opened at two at the sharpest book in 573 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 1: the country. It was better to three and a half. 574 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: So just for the record, all of the money was 575 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: on Dallas and they did not show up. All of 576 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: the money early seems to be on Miami. This opened 577 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: at seven. It's down to six and a half everywhere, 578 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 1: So people think that's a little bit high, Rob. This 579 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: is this is why this is such a difficult series 580 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: to bet. Miami's look good in two quarters, not just good, 581 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: phenomenal in two quarters right, first quarter of Game three, 582 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: third quarter of Game one, didn't look good at all 583 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 1: in Game two at all, and then the other courts 584 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: just pretty much been a wash or Celtics. So who's 585 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: gonna win the blowout today? Is it Boston? I mean 586 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: I would be stunned, beyond stunt off. Miami want to 587 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,400 Speaker 1: blow out, but it does seem kind of feast or 588 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: famine for the heat. Right, Hey, we're gonna win this 589 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: and we're gonna crush him, We're gonna lock in, or 590 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 1: we're just gonna concede a game and go back to 591 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: too and we got home court advantage back. Yeah. I 592 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: just I think this one's going to be a blowout 593 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 1: for Boston. I think that. I think interesting blowout Boston. 594 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: Robson on the record, I am gonna wait just to 595 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: see just on word on Jimmy Butler, because if he's out, 596 00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: we know he's a warrior, but I don't know how 597 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 1: effective he's gonna be. Yeah, I mean, Rob, you want 598 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 1: a game in Boston with him sitting out the second half. 599 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:52,000 Speaker 1: Why risk further knee inflammation when you could just, I 600 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: don't know, have him rest. You don't really want to 601 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: punt a game. But like the the NBA playoffs right 602 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:01,240 Speaker 1: now are just every other day, so there's not like 603 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 1: that extra travel day down a bunch of time to recover. 604 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 1: That's not ideal for knee inflammation. So I wouldn't be 605 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: shocked if Jimmy Butler's a late scratch. I mean, Robert 606 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: Williams without him on the inside, they just bam out 607 00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: of bio feasted. I'm leaning Boston, but six and a 608 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: half seems like a big number. Well, see that's why 609 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: you're the professional gambling guy and I'm just the guy 610 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: and whatever. That's the kind of way I'm betting. Yeah, 611 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:31,520 Speaker 1: this round is This round is like one of those 612 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: where it's like, Okay, dal back how much you're betting 613 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 1: because between the blowouts and the stunning blowouts like Boston 614 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 1: getting waxed at home for three quarters, uh MAVs no 615 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,959 Speaker 1: showing at home against Warriors like that, This is stuff stunning. 616 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: This is like it started, I guess really with Game 617 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,000 Speaker 1: seven Phoenix Maps. Pretty much it just was all downhill 618 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,040 Speaker 1: from there, Rob, do you want to tell the audience 619 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 1: how your Vegas trip went over? There? You know it 620 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: was actually to your point right now about you being 621 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: the gambling guy, I mean, just the guy. This is 622 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,360 Speaker 1: the first time in what twelve plus years going to Vegas. 623 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:10,360 Speaker 1: I did not gamble at penny in Vegas. It was 624 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 1: just you know, a lot of fancy dinners, you know, 625 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: some alcohol and and shopping, but did not throw down 626 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: a single dollar on the tables or at the book. 627 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 1: That's kind of impressive. It was just the wife influence 628 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: or this is just you know, I mean when we 629 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: planned that, you know, we're gonna go to Hawaii in September. 630 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: We're going to that fancy Disney Alani resort. So that's expensive. 631 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: So I'm like, you know what, if I'm gonna I'm 632 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 1: going to do other trips, I'm gonna be a little 633 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: bit more low key. Now, it still wasn't very low key, 634 00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: because if you've got out to a nice restaurant in Vegas, 635 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 1: there's nothing low key about it. But I guess it's 636 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: easier to spend money that way than in five minutes 637 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 1: at the crafts table and it all be gone. So 638 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,479 Speaker 1: let me just float this to you. We're not like 639 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: Disney people. There's like a Disney community of people who 640 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: are like on the message board, didn't like all up 641 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,239 Speaker 1: in the Disney lifestyle. The one thing we didn't know 642 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 1: about Alani in Hawaii, the Disney resort. It's spectacular. It 643 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 1: has a kids club and it's like an awesome kids 644 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:16,120 Speaker 1: club with tons of stuff. The problem is these Disney weirdos, 645 00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 1: like the hardcore Disney people, will book the kids club 646 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 1: three to four months in advance of their trip. So 647 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: if you aren't aware of that, and then you know, 648 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: you're two weeks before your trip and you're like, oh, 649 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,319 Speaker 1: kids club, let me go book Wait sold out? What 650 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 1: are you kidding me? So they lock it up. But 651 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,240 Speaker 1: what those people then do is some of them planned 652 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,560 Speaker 1: day trips and so spots open up. And the other 653 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: thing is they take a certain amount of walkings. But rob, 654 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: you gotta wake up at like six thirty am and 655 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: get in line.
