10
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: two twenty eight. A ton to do today? We have

11
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:53,279
Speaker 2: two national champions crowned in college sports. The question of

12
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 2: is this the year of the repeat champion, the cheat

13
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 2: of at least in the men's side of sports. The

14
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 2: Chiefs did it, Yu Khon just did it. What does

15
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 2: that mean for the Nuggets? What does that mean for

16
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 2: whoever the hell won the Stanley Cup Final last year?

17
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,639
Speaker 2: Nobody knows. You know, those are the types of things,

18
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 2: you know, lost to the dustbin of history. I suppose

19
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 2: we'll get into all of it, but first, what missed

20
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:21,840
Speaker 2: the cut? John Calipari leaves Kentucky for Arkansas, and then

21
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 2: when he's asked about it, he says, I can't because

22
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 2: I'm walking my dog when he was walking his dog

23
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 2: in a stroller down a busy street. Little odd end

24
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 2: of an ignominious end for Coach cal at Kentucky. The

25
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,959
Speaker 2: solar eclipse happened. I gotta say it was pretty cool

26
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 2: people at first. Things first, well, I come outside and look,

27
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 2: we got the glasses for you. I looked. It was

28
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,479
Speaker 2: pretty cool. I was like, hey, I'm glad I looked

29
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: at that. And the Curb Your Enthusiasm series finale happened.

30
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: I have not seen it yet. No spoilers, please. Curb

31
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: Your Enthusiasm is a show demands Your mother and I

32
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 2: have been watching together since the very beginning of our relationship.

33
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 2: It's still going on and so we.

34
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 3: Have to watch.

35
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 2: You know. Well, the series finale is and it started

36
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,839
Speaker 2: before she and I were together. It's had twelve seasons,

37
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 2: but they had like a five year hiatus between seasons.

38
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 2: Once this is Larry David created Seinfeld, which was the

39
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 2: most successful sitcom ever in the nineties. He then created

40
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 2: Curb Your Enthusiasm, which I think might be the funniest

41
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 2: sitcom ever. It went on for twelve seasons the series finale.

42
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 2: But the point is this, I can't watch the series

43
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,800
Speaker 2: finale of a show I've been watching with your mother

44
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 2: for our entire lives without her, but she falls asleep

45
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 2: seven minutes into anything we try to watch together. We're

46
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 2: trying to watch this damn eight episode show on Netflix

47
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 2: called The Gentleman the Guy Ritchie Movie, so we're on

48
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 2: Demon's I've been trying to complete episode seven and eight

49
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 2: for two weeks. I'm just watching them four minutes at

50
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 2: a time. Then I turn over, I turned she's falling asleep.

51
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: I pause it. I turn on poker, and then she's like,

52
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 2: where'd I fall asleep? I'm like, well, three minutes after

53
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,839
Speaker 2: you fell asleep on the previous one. So I don't

54
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 2: know if I'm ever gonna be able to finish it, Curve.

55
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: I'm gonna give her a week. I'm gonna give her

56
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 2: one week to sit down and watch curb with me

57
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 2: because I gotta be able to see it. I gotta

58
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 2: be able to see it, and I can't have people

59
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 2: spoil the ending. Unfair.

60
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 3: I'll say that Oh, you know what, that's fair point.

61
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 2: We do have a wedding slash vow renewal happening on Saturday,

62
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 2: so that's a good you know what. Touche all right, Toman, say,

63
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: let's get to the basketball.

64
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 3: Go right ahead, all right, let's start off with some

65
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 3: college hoops.

66
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 4: The University of South Carolina capped off their undefeated season

67
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 4: on Sunday, and you gotten capped off back to back

68
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 4: titles with another dominant performance over Purdue. Gonna start off

69
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 4: with the men's side. Do you think Yukon is an

70
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 4: all time great team?

71
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: So this is tricky because they're the back to back champions.

72
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 2: They beat everyone in both tournaments by more than a

73
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 2: dozen points. They covered every game, they obviously won every game.

74
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: Yesterday's game went the way a lot of Yukon games

75
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 2: have gone, which is the other team feels like they

76
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 2: have a chance for the first half and then Yukon

77
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 2: just blitzes them in the second half and runs away

78
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 2: with it. On the for Purdue, listen, I said on

79
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 2: TV that I was rooting for and I was gonna

80
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 2: go ahead and pick the upset, And I said, Zach Edy,

81
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: I thought could have a thirty eight point double double

82
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,679
Speaker 2: is what I predicted. He had a thirty seven point

83
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:52,160
Speaker 2: double double and they got dominated. So the Edie did

84
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 2: his thing. I don't think it was, despite the numbers,

85
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 2: his best game, but I thought he played well. Yukon's

86
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:05,039
Speaker 2: just two deep and has too much and if you're perdue.

87
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 2: I credit to Yukon for the game plan of We're

88
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 2: gonna listen if Edie kills us, Edie kills us, we

89
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:15,279
Speaker 2: are not gonna double off Edie and leave the shooters open.

90
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 2: A Purdue team that I'm gonna check real quick. But

91
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 2: I think for the season, shot forty percent from three, uh,

92
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 2: and I'll get it right in just a second. From

93
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 2: the season, yep shot forty percent from three last night,

94
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 2: made one three pointer one of seven from three. You

95
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 2: have no chance of competing with or beating Yukon if

96
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,799
Speaker 2: you are not just lights out from three, and Yukon

97
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 2: is so Here's where I struggle with the all time

98
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 2: great team. There is so much variance in a single

99
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 2: elimination tournament that this is almost never the case. But

100
00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 2: I feel like you could have run this tournament ten

101
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 2: times and Yukon would have won it eight of them.

102
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: Like that's how dominant of a team they were. That's

103
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 2: how great they were. So in that regard versus their

104
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: contemporary competition, yes, of course they're an all time great team.

105
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 2: But in regards to how would this Yukon team stack

106
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 2: up against the great teams of yester year college basketball,

107
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 2: they would get annihilated. So because college basketball has just

108
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 2: changed so much, because guys don't the best players are

109
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 2: not there, they don't stay for long enough. You don't

110
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 2: have multiple great pros. Even the last back to back

111
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 2: national champion in college basketball, Florida. If you look at

112
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 2: who they had on and those fifteen years ago, who

113
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 2: that Florida team had on its six and seven teams,

114
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:05,919
Speaker 2: they had the following guys who were big time NBA players,

115
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 2: Joe Kim, Noah, Torrian Green, Corey Brewer, and Al Horford.

116
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 2: So you had a four of your starting five as

117
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 2: and then they came back the next year, Demonse did

118
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 2: it again and they added Maurice Spates off the bench,

119
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 2: Chris Richard, who had a cup of coffee in the NBA.

120
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 2: But when you've got you know, Horford, Brewer, Noah, and

121
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 2: Torrian Green all in your starting five, like that is

122
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 2: just a legendary team. You look at Yukon, the Yukon

123
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 2: team that won it in ninety nine, let me pull

124
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 2: up who was on that team, just to give you

125
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 2: some context for it. So the ninety nine Yukon team

126
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 2: had Rip Hamilton obviously, Khaleid Elamin and Jake Voshkel who

127
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 2: again not great NBA players, but NBA players all over it.

128
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 2: The the UNLV team, what UNLV team, what year won it?

129
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's ninety two or ninety three.

130
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 4: Uh.

131
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 2: But if you look at that UNLV team and you're like, oh, okay,

132
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 2: how o's ninety Pardon me, who do they have? They

133
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 2: had Stacy Augman, Greg Anthony and Larry Johnson. The Michigan

134
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 2: team that didn't win the National Championship, the Jailen like

135
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 2: the Fab five team demonse that Michigan team had. Let

136
00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 2: me tell you who they had. They had Jalen Rose,

137
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 2: Juwan Howard, Jimmy King, and Chris Webber on it. So

138
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 2: like how it is very difficult and I'm leaving someone out.

139
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 2: Who am I leaving out? Uh? Oh? Ray Jackson didn't

140
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 2: play in the league.

141
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:47,679
Speaker 3: Uh.

142
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 2: So it's just very difficult to comp modern college basketball

143
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 2: to previous college basketball. They had an unbelievable line Demanse

144
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 2: and the U in at the beginning of the game,

145
00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 2: which was, this is the first national championship game that's

146
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 2: a matchup between seven footers since nineteen eighty four. Those

147
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 2: seven footers Demonse were or nineteen eighty four? Did I

148
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 2: say seventy four? Nineteen eighty four? Those seven footers were

149
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 2: Patrick Ewing and a chem Olajuan. Those two guys played

150
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 2: each other in a national championship game. And so I'm

151
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 2: not taking a thing away from Yukon nothing. And in

152
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 2: modern college basketball, it is an all time legendary team.

153
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,679
Speaker 2: There is no argument about it. It is not a

154
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 2: historic team. And now I want to talk about Edie

155
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 2: and Purdue because Zach edy this tournament. I have been

156
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 2: very skeptical of him as a pro because he's not

157
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 2: going to be able to defend on the perimeter modern

158
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 2: college basketball and what it demands of you as a

159
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 2: big man. But here's what he did in the NCAA

160
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:21,239
Speaker 2: Tournament thirty and twenty one, Round one, twenty three and fourteen,

161
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 2: Round two, twenty seven and fourteen, Round three, forty and

162
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 2: sixteen to get to the final four. Twenty and twelve

163
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 2: in the semifinal and then thirty seven and ten in

164
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 2: the National Championship Game against a guy in the National

165
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 2: Championship Game, a fellow seven footer, guy who's seven to two.

166
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 2: If you can get him on a team demands like

167
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 2: Miami that has a that has a rim protector who

168
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,839
Speaker 2: can guard on the perimeter in Bam, and he can

169
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 2: had some all he can. You know, Bam can kind

170
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 2: of extend the floor of business at the Gray Shoelner World.

171
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 2: I understanding that. But and Edie can play down low.

172
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 2: I think there's a place for him. And I know

173
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 2: some people have said, what about on the Spurs just

174
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 2: try to create like the craziest, longest team and Wimby's

175
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 2: playing out on the perimeter, he's down low. So I

176
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 2: think there's a place for him in the NBA, and

177
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 2: I didn't think that before the tournament. I also think

178
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 2: this tournament generated one of the worst sports takes of

179
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 2: the year by frenemy of the show Draymond Green. When

180
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 2: Draymond tweeted last night, job well done thirty five for Yukon.

181
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 2: You did your job tonight. It was him that made

182
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 2: Edie quit with nineteen minutes to go in the second half,

183
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 2: there was a turnover and I saw Edie's body language

184
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 2: walking back. He was done. Now rewatched the game from

185
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 2: that point on hashtag free game. So for some context there,

186
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 2: that number thirty five that Draymond is talking about is

187
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 2: Stanley Johnson. Stanley Johnson last night played five minutes and

188
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 2: had five fouls in those five minutes because he couldn't

189
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 2: contain Edie because he's just not big enough. Ee last

190
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 2: night was he played every second of the game until

191
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 2: they took guys out at the very very end. He

192
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,360
Speaker 2: played thirty nine to forty minutes at seven foot four.

193
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 2: Were there times he was exhausted, Sure, there were there

194
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 2: times in the second half where he seemed a little discouraged,

195
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 2: of course because Yukon was running away with it. But

196
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 2: the idea that zach Edi quit in that basketball game

197
00:12:55,280 --> 00:13:00,959
Speaker 2: is so absurd and such fastcyle re, and to me

198
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:09,640
Speaker 2: that is motivated reasoning, meaning Draymond was trying to do

199
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 2: multiple things there. One, be like, here's the game within

200
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 2: the game that you casuals aren't picking up on. Two

201
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 2: give credit to a guy whose box score looked like

202
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 2: trash to be like that guy actually had as much

203
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 2: impact as the guy who had thirty seven and ten.

204
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 2: Now you tell me who that type of player that

205
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 2: like that credit would extrapolate to amongst other players, And

206
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 2: you can see why. Maybe it was Draymond's take. I

207
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 2: thought Edie should hang his head, should not hang his

208
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:47,319
Speaker 2: head at all, and it be very proud of how

209
00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 2: he played in this game and in this tournament. Now

210
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 2: to the women's side and things demands said.

211
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, so the women's side, Caitlin Clark ends her college

212
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 4: career with a strong case for the goat. Despite not

213
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 4: winning a ring, she did carry a team of nobody's

214
00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 4: back to back to championships, or not to championships, but far.

215
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 2: Into the championship game. Yeah, to the to the final

216
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 2: in both games.

217
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 4: That's got to sound pretty familiar to you with Lebron

218
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 4: and Patrick Mahomes. Is that the reason why you like

219
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 4: her so much?

220
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 2: Well, I think that it's a Lebron question, which is

221
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: like the seven or the eighteen Cavs, you lose in

222
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 2: the finals, but you carry a team there. And I

223
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 2: it's not why I like her so much, but I

224
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 2: do think it is a unique way to look at

225
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 2: like it just does Caitlin Clark have to have won

226
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 2: a title in order to be the greatest woman's player

227
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 2: of all time. So here's the comp I will give

228
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 2: that the most decorated women's basketball player of all time

229
00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 2: is Brianna Stewart. Brianna Stewart played four years at Yukon.

230
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,640
Speaker 2: They won four NASH Championships. She won Player of the

231
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 2: Year three times her final three years there, demanse they

232
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 2: were one hundred and sixteen and one. All right, so

233
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 2: how can anyone trump that? And the answer is on

234
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 2: a base level, you can't. But then I give you

235
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 2: this piece of information. The year after Brianna Stewart left Yukon,

236
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 2: they went into the final four thirty six and oh

237
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 2: lost by two points in overtime in the final four

238
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 2: to finish the year thirty six and one without her.

239
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 2: The year after that, they went into the final four

240
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,800
Speaker 2: thirty six and oh lost by four points in overtime

241
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 2: in the final four to finish the year thirty six

242
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 2: and one. So they were one hundred and sixteen and

243
00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 2: one in her final three years. They were seventy two

244
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 2: and two in the next two years without her, and

245
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 2: both of those losses were by a combined six points

246
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 2: in overtime in the Final four, Which is not to

247
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 2: say Brianna Stewart is not arguably the goat, but the

248
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 2: context of the overwhelming Juggernauts juggernaut that that Yukon team

249
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 2: had turned into. Right, and So I watched the women's

250
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 2: national championship game and I asked myself this question, is

251
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 2: there a single player on IOWA other than Caitlin Clark

252
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,440
Speaker 2: that would get a single minute of playing time for

253
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 2: South Carolina. My answer to that question is no. South

254
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 2: Carolina went nine deep, and if you were to stack

255
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 2: up the ten best players in that you know on

256
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 2: those two teams would be Caitlyn Clerk one and two

257
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 2: through ten would be South Carolina game Cocks. You then add,

258
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 2: there is then also this element of that I so last,

259
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:08,440
Speaker 2: so South Carolina and its last eighty one games has

260
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,320
Speaker 2: won or eighty two games, maybe eighty. I think it's

261
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 2: eighty one games is eighty and one, right, with two

262
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 2: national championships. The one loss is to Caitlin Clark and

263
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:25,479
Speaker 2: Iowa in the final four last year, when Caitlin dropped

264
00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 2: forty in a weird way, demonse, I think her beating

265
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:37,680
Speaker 2: South Carolina hurt her in the goat discussion because had

266
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 2: she lost that game and then lost to them in

267
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 2: the National Championship as opposed to beating them and then

268
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 2: losing to LSU, I think people would be like, well,

269
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,880
Speaker 2: South Carolina is on an eighty two game winning streak,

270
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,880
Speaker 2: they've won three straight titles. No one was beating them.

271
00:17:56,240 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 2: They're an overwhelming juggernaut. But because she here's kind of

272
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 2: their invincibility and then lost in the next round, it

273
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 2: damn it. I think some people will use that against her. Now,

274
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 2: there is a give and take in everything. If she

275
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 2: were on a better team, Demase, she probably wouldn't have

276
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:20,920
Speaker 2: the stats and the records that she has now if

277
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 2: it was a more well rounded team. And so because

278
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 2: of that, to me, and because there is no obvious, clearcut,

279
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 2: undoubted goat of women's college basketball like there is in

280
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:40,439
Speaker 2: men's college basketball, with it being Luel Sender than Kareem I,

281
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,959
Speaker 2: because Cheryl Miller has obviously a super strong argument Tarazi

282
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,360
Speaker 2: is the best player I had ever seen before. Caitlyn

283
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 2: Shamik will holds claw in the nineties, Brianna Stewart, all

284
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 2: those people are Maya Moore, They're all in the room

285
00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:01,360
Speaker 2: and Caitlin's in that room. I do ask this question

286
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 2: in my lifetime, have I ever seen a women's college

287
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 2: basketball player better than Caitlin Clark? And they answer that

288
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 2: question is no, She's the best I've ever seen. And

289
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,280
Speaker 2: does that make her the goat? That's an argument for

290
00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 2: others to have. Now on the South Carolina side of things,

291
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:18,959
Speaker 2: do you want to say something demon say or can

292
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 2: I go to South Carolina? No?

293
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 3: No, you can go to South Carolina.

294
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 4: I think it's I think it's a tricky debate. But

295
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 4: uh but yeah, I don't you got it, you got.

296
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,880
Speaker 2: The the I mean, I think she's a I think dismissing.

297
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:36,600
Speaker 2: I think in pro sports, if you've never won a championship,

298
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 2: I think it's disqualifying because you you have fifteen to

299
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,919
Speaker 2: twenty years to do it. In college sports, when you

300
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,159
Speaker 2: have four years and the teams can be so lopsided,

301
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:52,359
Speaker 2: I don't think it's disqualifying. Now to South Carolina, shout

302
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 2: out to Don Staley man. Don Staley got there on

303
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 2: O nine they were ten and eighteen or first year,

304
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 2: won the first AT one or first SEC title. Five

305
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 2: years later the year after that, made the final four

306
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 2: in twenty fifteen, twenty seventeen, won our first championship. Twenty

307
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:12,640
Speaker 2: twenty was thirty two to one, and the pandemic hits

308
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: probably robbed her of a championship. In twenty twenty two,

309
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 2: won the title. In twenty twenty three, was undefeated going

310
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 2: into the final four, lost a heartbreaker to Caitlin Clark.

311
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 2: And in twenty twenty four undefeated, ran the table, unbelievable run,

312
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 2: unbelievable depth, not one like last year when she had

313
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:37,439
Speaker 2: a Leah Boston the number one pick of the WNBA draft,

314
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 2: not one, just like superstar player, head and shoulders above

315
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 2: everybody else and found a way to do it. And

316
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 2: I am, I am really really impressed by what she

317
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:59,199
Speaker 2: was able to do and by that team, and I

318
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 2: do won. If there is going to be how much

319
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,840
Speaker 2: how many programs on the men's side of things are

320
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,480
Speaker 2: going to try to poach her, I think Kentucky should

321
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,880
Speaker 2: call her with coach kyl Leaving. I think she absolutely

322
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,679
Speaker 2: can coach basketball, men's or women's. And I think Kentucky

323
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 2: should have a real conversation about whether or not they

324
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 2: want to try to Bowler over with unbelievable money, which

325
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 2: they could do, or she could stay at South Carolina.

326
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 2: And as we've seen in the past, like you can

327
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:45,320
Speaker 2: go on a run in women's college basketball kind of

328
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:52,880
Speaker 2: unlike any other sport, like the Lady Valls, And it

329
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 2: was the Lady Vall era when I was a kid.

330
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 2: Then it was the Yukon Women's era, and then it

331
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:03,120
Speaker 2: was now it's South Carolina era. But the Lady Vols Demons,

332
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 2: they won the title in eighty seven, eighty nine, ninety one,

333
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:13,639
Speaker 2: ninety six, ninety seven, ninety eight, and were the runner

334
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 2: up in ninety five, two thousand oh three oh four, okay,

335
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,359
Speaker 2: and then by the way, they won two more and

336
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 2: oh seven oh eight. Then Yukon took over in basically

337
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 2: two thousand and Yukon won the title in two thousand two,

338
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 2: three four o nine, twenty ten, twenty thirteen, twenty fourteen,

339
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 2: twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen. That was Yukon's run, and now

340
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 2: South Carolina seventeen. I would con nobody won the title

341
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:58,399
Speaker 2: in twenty They would have twenty two twenty four and

342
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 2: were undefeated going into the fire four and twenty three.

343
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 2: They can keep this thing rolling as long as Don

344
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 2: Staley stays there, all right, let's move on next.

345
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 4: So Dallas has won ten of their last eleven games.

346
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 4: Seems like they're peaking at the right time, and it

347
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 4: seems like they also ended Houston's season on Sunday on

348
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 4: the back of Kyrie's forty eight points in double overtime.

349
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,120
Speaker 4: Kyrie and Lucas are proven to be the best one

350
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 4: to two punch or one of the best one two

351
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 4: punches in the NBA. Where would you rank them in

352
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 4: the one two punches going into the playoffs?

353
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 2: Listen, they're as dangerous as anybody, and whoever gets the

354
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:41,760
Speaker 2: one seed in the West is has reason to be

355
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 2: scared of them. And that's not necessarily why you laughing,

356
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 2: You think that's a Denver thing.

357
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 4: No, No, I think I'm saying that's no, No, that's

358
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 4: that's definitely that's fair. But I mean, I think if

359
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 4: if Luca is seeing Denver in the first in the

360
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 4: first round, in the second round.

361
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 2: Because well, here's what I'm saying right now, we don't

362
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 2: know who's gonna be the one seed in the West,

363
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 2: because Minnesota and Denver are tiede in Oklahoma City is

364
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,600
Speaker 2: a game behind, all right, Dallas is going to be

365
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 2: the four, the five seed and they're going to play

366
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 2: the Clippers in round one, and Dallas is gonna rock

367
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 2: the Clippers in round one. Okay, whoever is the one?

368
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 2: I don't think you want to play Dallas right now.

369
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 2: Luca is a legendary playoff performer. Already, everyone gives me

370
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 2: a hard time about it, uh, but it's just the facts,

371
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:49,160
Speaker 2: Luca is. His career playoff numbers are as follows. Year

372
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 2: one against the best Clippers team that ever existed, the

373
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 2: Bubble Clippers team, his first playoffs ever, he has he

374
00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 2: averages thirty one, ten to nine. Year two in the

375
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:07,280
Speaker 2: playoffs against that same Clippers team, he averages thirty six,

376
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 2: eight and ten. Again, those are two series with Kawhi

377
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:15,879
Speaker 2: and Paul George guarding him on basically every possession. Year three,

378
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 2: going through Utah and then Phoenix and then losing to

379
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 2: Golden State, he averages thirty two, ten and six. So

380
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:30,119
Speaker 2: for his career in the playoffs he's thirty three, nine

381
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 2: and eight. He is a legend in the postseason. Kyrie,

382
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 2: who obviously I've been critical of over the last few years,

383
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 2: is having one of the best seasons of his career.

384
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,440
Speaker 2: Is doing everything we all have always asked of him

385
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 2: keeping the nonsense to the side, being mostly available. He

386
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 2: and Lucas chemistry is off the charts and just a dynamic,

387
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:02,959
Speaker 2: dynamic offense of force right now. This year, you're getting

388
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 2: all of the good of Kyrie with none of the bad.

389
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 2: He's twenty six percent or twenty six percent, twenty six

390
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 2: five and five for the year on fifty forty one. Wow,

391
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 2: he's all He's this close to a fifty to forty

392
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:22,680
Speaker 2: ninety season. He's forty nine point six for the year,

393
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,879
Speaker 2: So he's gonna just barely miss out on a fifty

394
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 2: forty ninety year. And Dallas is super dangerous man. And

395
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:37,880
Speaker 2: for if you are Denver, Liz, Denver is the overwhelming

396
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 2: favorite for a reason, and the one seed could be

397
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 2: decided tomorrow night when you have Nuggets TEA Wolves in Denver.

398
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 2: If Jamal Murray is not at one hundred percent, Denver

399
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 2: can get gott in this postseason. With Jamal Murray, I

400
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 2: don't know who's beating him. Yeah, I mean he's back now,

401
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,360
Speaker 2: but if he is, and I think they're being very

402
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 2: cautious with in which they should be. But Dallas is

403
00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 2: a dangerous, dangerous team. And if if the Lakers, and

404
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 2: we'll get to the Lakers in a minute. Can somehow

405
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 2: move up to the seven line. My ideal bracket at

406
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:27,680
Speaker 2: this point is as follows. Denver one, OKC two, Minnesota three,

407
00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 2: Dallas Clippers four or five who cares five four four, five,

408
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:40,879
Speaker 2: doesn't matter my ideal realistic bracket, I should say Phoenix six,

409
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 2: Pelicans slash Kings whomever, seven, Lakers eight, the other one whatever.

410
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 2: The Lakers end up with OKC in round one, knock

411
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:03,200
Speaker 2: them off. The MAVs end up with Denver in round two.

412
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 2: The MAVs beat Denver for the Lakers who can't beat Denver,

413
00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 2: and then we get a Luca Lebron Western Conference Finals.

414
00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 2: If the Lakers can get there. It's not a likely dream,

415
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,239
Speaker 2: but the dream is alive. The dream is alive of

416
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 2: a Luca Lebron Western Conference Finals. Kyrie against Lebron, a

417
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 2: the whole thing, ad playing some of the best basketball

418
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 2: of his career. If you can stop getting hit in

419
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:34,719
Speaker 2: the face. That's Ron pulling for all right next.

420
00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,439
Speaker 4: All right, So the Bucks have been on a terrible slide,

421
00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 4: terrible slide lately, losing to the Wizards, Grizzlies, and the Raptors.

422
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 4: Most recently they made it four straight losing to the Knicks.

423
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 4: So they're about to play my Celtics tonight, actually, and

424
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 4: do you think this is a must win to boost

425
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 4: morale and get back on track or is this a.

426
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 2: So listen the Bucks. There is no defending how the

427
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 2: Bucks have been playing what Doc's been saying. They look

428
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,840
Speaker 2: like as I understand, they haven't had Giannis and Dame

429
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 2: for all these games. Where they did have them both

430
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 2: for the Knicks game they got beat soundly. Anyway, at

431
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 2: this point, I'm going full on Galaxy Brain on the Bucks,

432
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 2: which is they want to drop out of the two seed.

433
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 2: They want to be the three because they want to

434
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 2: duck Philly in round one. That's a good Galaxy Brain.

435
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 2: Appreciate that, guys. Philly. Right now it looks like it's

436
00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 2: going to be in the play in and going to

437
00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 2: win that first play in game and be the seven.

438
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 2: Philly looks devastating right now. They just wont a great

439
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 2: game without Maxie a great comeback. They embiids playing great,

440
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,400
Speaker 2: and so I think I think Milwaukee wants to fall

441
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 2: to the three line. Get Indiana or the absolutely collapsing

442
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:54,239
Speaker 2: Calves in round one, regroup, and then see what's what

443
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 2: in round two, playing either uh or playing probably Philadelphia

444
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 2: in round two after Philadelphia has clipped the magic. That's

445
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 2: what I'm rooting for. The Bucks were my pick to

446
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 2: win the championship. It is not looking good. I can't

447
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,680
Speaker 2: even really justify it right now. I'm just gonna believe

448
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,920
Speaker 2: that Giannis is gonna play better and that Doc's gonna

449
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 2: coach better. But right now it doesn't.

450
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:20,120
Speaker 3: Do's gonna coach better.

451
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 4: It's Lebron, Lebron versus Steph part of millions coming up tonight.

452
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 4: The Lakers are rolling in a Winko helped them win

453
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,160
Speaker 4: climb into the seven to eight playing game. But if

454
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 4: they do stay in the nine seat, Lebron has a

455
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 4: chance to beat Steph in an elimination game. Are you

456
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 4: secretly hoping for that so you can add another line

457
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 4: to your coat's legacy?

458
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 2: No, listen, here's the deal. The Lakers need to move

459
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:49,760
Speaker 2: up a line. And the loss to the Timberwolves killed them,

460
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 2: and despite it's their only loss in like a couple

461
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 2: of weeks, but it still was just devastating and it

462
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 2: says sucked like Lebron was out for the game because

463
00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 2: he wasn't he was sick. They were up after the

464
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 2: first quarter, Ad gets hit in the face and they

465
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,280
Speaker 2: just get rolled. So here is the scenario for the

466
00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:14,719
Speaker 2: Lakers to move up one line. They need to win out,

467
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 2: all right, there's three games left. They have to beat

468
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 2: the Warriors. Tough game, but it's in La Lakers and

469
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:24,440
Speaker 2: great in Los Angeles at the Grizzlies, no problem, and

470
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:27,240
Speaker 2: then at the Pelicans in the final game of the year,

471
00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 2: which could be almost like a playoff game. If you

472
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 2: assume the Lakers win out, they then move up if

473
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 2: any of the following happens. Okay, if the Kings lose twice,

474
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 2: the King's schedule is at the Thunder, home for the Pelicans,

475
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 2: home for the Suns, home for the Blazers, or if

476
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 2: the Pelicans lose twice, but keep in mind, one of

477
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 2: those losses is baked in to this scenario because the

478
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 2: Lakers would be playing them. The Pelicans are at the Kings,

479
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 2: at the Warriors, and then home for the Lakers. And

480
00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 2: the Pelicans, by the way, have been in a bit

481
00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 2: of a free fall. They steadied themselves with a win

482
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 2: against the Suns, or if the Suns lose twice. The

483
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 2: Suns have home for the Clippers, at the Clippers, at

484
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 2: the Kings, at the Timberwolves. So if the Lakers win out,

485
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 2: I think they move up to your point on would

486
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,320
Speaker 2: it be a bit of a silver lining if they

487
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 2: don't that Lebron beat Stephan the play in once a

488
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 2: couple years later, eliminated him in round two last year,

489
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 2: and then could beat him in the nine ten playing game. Sure,

490
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 2: but not enough of a silver lining because you can't

491
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 2: be in the nine to ten part of it because

492
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 2: then you gotta win. Then you gotta win a road game,

493
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 2: and then you start on the road obviously in a

494
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 2: best of seven. If you get through those two games

495
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,280
Speaker 2: against the one seed that's been resting for a week,

496
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 2: so the Lakers need to go three. If the Lakers

497
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 2: go three to zero, I think one of those scenarios

498
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 2: is gonna happen because those teams above them play each

499
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 2: other enough that one of them's gonna get a couple losses,

500
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 2: and so that's the scenario for the Lakers. I believe

501
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 2: it's going to I believe the Lakers are going to

502
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 2: on the final day of the season beat the Pelicans

503
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 2: to move up to the seven eight game. I believe

504
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 2: that's gonna happen. They're gonna finish the year forty eight

505
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 2: and thirty four potentially tied with New Orleans, and that

506
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 2: they would have the tiebreaker with New Orleans. That's the

507
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 2: scenario that I am looking for. But it's so weird

508
00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 2: because right now now the Lakers could absolutely finish. There

509
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:13,480
Speaker 2: are let me check basketball references, playoff odds. The right now,

510
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:20,919
Speaker 2: the Lakers have a three percent chance to be the

511
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:26,479
Speaker 2: sixth seed, a nine percent chance to be this isn't

512
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:30,760
Speaker 2: for you know, pre playing the seven, a seventeen percent

513
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 2: chance to be the eight, a forty one percent chance

514
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,840
Speaker 2: to be the nine, and a thirty percent chance to

515
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 2: be the ten. And that is basically they lose tonight

516
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 2: and they're cooked on that front probably. So we have

517
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 2: three games left and six through ten are all in

518
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:52,399
Speaker 2: play for them, and that is the same by the way,

519
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 2: for the Warriors are basically locked into either nine or ten,

520
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:02,279
Speaker 2: but the Kings can be anywhere from six through ten,

521
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 2: the Suns can be anywhere from six through nine, and

522
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 2: the Pelicans can be anywhere from six through eight. Realistically

523
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 2: maybe six through nine as well. It's just a wild

524
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 2: how close. It is at the end of the season here,

525
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 2: all right, take a quick break, come back and do

526
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 2: Demonse's favorite segment of the year. That's next, What's right?

527
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 2: All right? Welcome back in What's Right with Nick? Right

528
00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 2: before we get to this or that time? Now, Demonse,

529
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:41,960
Speaker 2: you know what time year it is. Do you hear

530
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:46,840
Speaker 2: the birds chirping? Do you hear the soothing tones of

531
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 2: Jim Nance's voice. Can you taste the pimento in your mouth? Slightly? Oh? Yeah,

532
00:35:55,160 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 2: the azaleas blooming. It's time for our masss corner, go

533
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 2: right ahead.

534
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:09,320
Speaker 4: Oh gosh. The Masters is underway in Augusta and Scottie

535
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,640
Speaker 4: Schefter Scheffler is the favorite.

536
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 3: Break it down while I watch some grass grow.

537
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 2: Oh buddy. So here's the thing. So this is a

538
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:24,320
Speaker 2: big weekend, right because my wife and I April thirteenth

539
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 2: is our anniversary and we're renewing our vows, which is

540
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 2: actually a full blown wedding one hundred and fifty people,

541
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 2: a full blown ceremony. The Great Mayor of Kansas City

542
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:42,239
Speaker 2: is doing it for me. Is he's the officiant is

543
00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:46,040
Speaker 2: if you got bride'smaids groomsman Demonsey's getting fitted for a

544
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:50,000
Speaker 2: tucks a full thing, and I try to be you know,

545
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 2: I got a lot of balls in the air that

546
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 2: I gotta you know, keep keep a lot of people

547
00:36:54,000 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 2: happy at different times. And I feel honestly terribly about

548
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 2: scheduling a major event, asking people to travel, potentially asking

549
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 2: people to be on an airplane Sunday afternoon flying home

550
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 2: for the during the final round of the Masters. However,

551
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 2: April thirteenth is my literal anniversary, and it falls on

552
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 2: a Saturday, so there was no real wiggle room about

553
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,399
Speaker 2: doing it a week later. Like if April thirteenth had

554
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 2: fallen on a Tuesday, then it's like, oh, we're not

555
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 2: gonna be able to do it on the day either way.

556

576
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 2: thing that's gonna be happened Saturday morning. We're gonna be

577

00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,239
Speaker 2: golf gambling, Oh my goodness, because it's all there are,

579
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 2: all of it, demands ay, all of it's gonna feel

580
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 2: like sixteen parlay because there's so many golfers. You get

581
00:39:04,040 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 2: great odds on everything. So my big pre masters bet

582
00:39:09,520 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 2: Margaton now Xander Showfley twenty to one to win the Masters.

583
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 2: He has the profile of a guy that absolutely can

584
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 2: win this tournament. His game FIXX fits Augusta National perfectly.

585
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 2: He finished second five years ago. He's one of the

586
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 2: best active golfers without a major. He's got a top

587
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,240
Speaker 2: three at the Masters, at the Open and the US Open.

588
00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 2: And I understand everybody's gonna be on Scotty Scheffler, and

589
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 2: Scotty Scheffler is the rightful favorite. You what are you

590
00:39:50,080 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 2: looking at? What is Oh? You're literally watching grassgrow? This

591
00:39:54,880 --> 00:40:01,400
Speaker 2: is this is unbelievable, unbelievably in soul thing what you're doing.

592
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 2: This is one of the greatest sporting events of the year.

593
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 2: Pal the Augusta National. I can't wait. And Friday, Oh boy,

594
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 2: Oh we're gonna be together Friday too. Friday, we're gonna

595
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:17,920
Speaker 2: be able to watch. Oh my goodness, gracious, this is

596
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 2: and Tiger trying to break the record for cuts made.

597
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:26,560
Speaker 2: Oh you know what I did yesterday? Yesterday I took

598
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 2: This is what we call I think this is what

599
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 2: people your age call Celf.

600
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 3: Time would keep coming back, dude, how old is he?

601
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 2: He comes back for the Masters. But I think this

602
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,480
Speaker 2: is what people your age call self. Carod him. I say, yesterday,

603
00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:43,319
Speaker 2: I carved out about thirty minutes of my day to

604
00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 2: watch a cut up of one of the greatest back

605
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 2: nines in golf history, Jack at the eighty six Masters

606
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:56,960
Speaker 2: in his mid forties, going eagle birdie birdie on fifteen

607
00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:04,360
Speaker 2: sixteen seventeen to shockingly win his final major. A legendary performance.

608
00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 2: Could we see something like that from Tiger this time?

609
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,839
Speaker 2: Probably not Tiger if you want to bet on him,

610
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,359
Speaker 2: by the way, he's a nice tidy one hundred and

611
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 2: twenty to one. But we're gonna put our money on

612
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 2: Xander and we're gonna go with the x Man to

613
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 2: win the Masters. Let's go so excited, lock it in

614

Speaker 3: All right, guys?

628
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:19,840
Speaker 4: What the death that? I was just gonna say, I

629
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,319
Speaker 4: have nothing. I feel like you suck at Golden Tea.

630
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,160
Speaker 4: Like kick your button, Golden Tea.

631
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:26,800
Speaker 3: This all right, golf, no problem.

632
00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 2: We're gonna be in Kansas City, grand Flute on the

633
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:34,479
Speaker 2: plaza where I where I made my bones in Golden Tea.

634
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 2: I will whoop your ass in Golden Tea. We will

635
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 2: put real money on it. I'm not a Golden Tea

636
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,239
Speaker 2: pro like some of those guys where you have your

637
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 2: own golfer and like you're competing with other Golden te pros.

638
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 2: But me versus an amateur, me versus someone that doesn't.

639
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,240
Speaker 4: Understand the much You have no idea how much Golden

640
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 4: Tea I played when I lived in Kansas City and

641
00:42:57,160 --> 00:42:58,520
Speaker 4: was building fences every day.

642
00:42:59,120 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 3: You have no idea.

643
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:04,920
Speaker 2: But you know what, that's a good point. And I

644
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 2: bet some of those fence builders are big time Golden

645
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 2: Tea guys.

646
00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,879
Speaker 3: I bet you serious on the top of the.

647
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 2: And all of a sudden it's like, wait, why where

648
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:17,400
Speaker 2: did this character come from? Why does he have a

649
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:22,399
Speaker 2: rainbow hat on and wearing knickers? Or like he's from

650
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 2: Scotland and he's just banging. Yeah, no, I know those guys.

651
00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,720
Speaker 2: Those guys are great. Give me a picture of corps

652
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:30,319
Speaker 2: light in about ninety.

653
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:33,320
Speaker 3: Minutes exactly the machine God.

654
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 2: That is a dream. I gotta tell you. There is

655
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:41,799
Speaker 2: like an alternate life that I wonder, Like what if

656
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:45,239
Speaker 2: I had just been like a mailman and I just

657
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 2: have my nine hour job and then after work I

658
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:51,839
Speaker 2: hit up my local bar. I just crush it darts,

659
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 2: Golden tea, billiards. No, after work, I'm not going on

660
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 2: nice vacations. I'm not eating great meals, but I'm just

661
00:44:00,760 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 2: living that part of me that might be retirement for me.

662
00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:09,560
Speaker 2: Retirement for me might get it. Go be tea. Oh

663
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 2: a golden team, go, I don't want golden Yeah, a

664
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 2: golden team. We have a pac Man and we have

665
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,719
Speaker 2: big Buck Hunter. Big Buck Hunter. I used to be

666
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,600
Speaker 2: top one percent in the world at the Grand Faloon

667
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,680
Speaker 2: in Kansas City with my roommate Garrett, when I was

668
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,320
Speaker 2: living that life you were living when you were selling fences.

669
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,759
Speaker 2: This was when your mom and I met each other,

670
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 2: when she first came over to the apartment that I

671
00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,399
Speaker 2: lived in with Garrett, and she told me, if we're

672
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 2: going to continue this relationship, you have to move. This

673
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:37,760
Speaker 2: is the most disgusting place I've ever been in my life.

674
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 2: And I promptly moved. We would go to the Grand

675
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 2: Faloon on the Plaza and just wreck shop in big

676
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,719
Speaker 2: buck Hunter. Oh my goodness, gracious, those are the days

677
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 2: your early twenties. Guys. It's just you know, to try

678
00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 2: to keep the popped Achilles to under one and a half.

679
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,360
Speaker 2: But aside from that, you really can't do wrong. What

680
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:04,840
Speaker 2: a life. Oh, I'd trade it all, demonse back, relive

681
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 2: it all right, let's play this or that yo.

682
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:11,760
Speaker 4: The seventy six Ers and Spurs went to double overtime Sunday.

683
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,880
Speaker 4: Wimby did Wimby stuff, dropping thirty eight eighteen seven has

684
00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:17,920
Speaker 4: seven blocks in five threes.

685
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:19,759
Speaker 3: Geez uh.

686
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,280
Speaker 4: Maxi on the other side, dropped a career high fifty

687
00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,200
Speaker 4: two in the win. The more impressive performance was Wimby

688
00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:25,840
Speaker 4: or Maxi.

689
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:32,680
Speaker 2: Uh, that's a tie. Maxi's played fifty two minutes and

690
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,320
Speaker 2: was just never tired and just could get to the

691
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 2: rim at will when Maxie's rolling. He is such a

692
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 2: fascinating player because he just seems faster than everyone. He is.

693
00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 2: He doesn't seem like the greatest athlete. This seems faster

694
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:51,560
Speaker 2: than everyone. And I might have been a little too

695
00:45:53,200 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 2: low on Wimby. He's pretty impressive. He's pretty impressive. I mean,

696
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,200
Speaker 2: I is he already one of the twenty best players

697
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 2: in the league. Yeah? Probably? Uh, and so that is

698
00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 2: really that number.

699
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,799
Speaker 4: I was eighty six percent, Like I was saying, he's

700
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 4: got more bucks than eighty six percent of the league.

701
00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,319
Speaker 4: You were like, that's probably skewed because you know all

702
00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,600
Speaker 4: the players on the bench. I'm pretty sure that number

703
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,880
Speaker 4: is gone up, and I think the number, like of

704
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,279
Speaker 4: of all time NBA players is also going up, Like

705
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,280
Speaker 4: it's probably going eighty two, eighty six, eighty eighty seven.

706
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:33,360
Speaker 4: I mean, he's getting three four blocks a game. I

707
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:36,600
Speaker 4: don't know what his averages, but hey man, it's it's usual.

708
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 4: But did you go to the catch did you did

709
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,399
Speaker 4: you see his logo? What do you think of it?

710
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:46,279
Speaker 2: I did see? Is that confirmed. Is that? Oh, that's

711
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 2: Nike's actual tweet. Okay, that's a dope logo. I gotta

712
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 2: say that is a dope logo. And I like the

713
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:57,360
Speaker 2: Nike's smart man, not your hot take. Nike's marketing department

714
00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:01,640
Speaker 2: a plus. All right. Next, actually, it's not the stupid

715
00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 2: Matt Ford trying to get us talk about a fel professional.

716
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 4: That's not So many people saw this coming before the season,

717
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,320
Speaker 4: but the Orlando Magic are currently sitting in the three seed.

718
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:17,080
Speaker 4: Something else no one saw coming. The once mighty Warriors

719
00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:20,280
Speaker 4: celebrating the ten seed yikes, Yeah.

720
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:20,880
Speaker 2: That's embarrassing.

721
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you see the picture up there on YouTube.

722
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 4: The more shocking thing is Magic being the three seed

723
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:30,560
Speaker 4: or the Warriors celebrating a play in birth.

724
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 2: Uh, it's Orlando being the three with a real chance

725
00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:37,719
Speaker 2: because they play Milwaukee twice in the final week of

726
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,960
Speaker 2: being the two seed is more shocking. The Warriors celebrating

727
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:44,800
Speaker 2: the ten seeds just sad and just like Draymond being like, oh,

728
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:48,399
Speaker 2: we showed you, Tari Eason, we ended your season. Bro,

729
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 2: you're a dynasty. You're like, give me a break. All right.

730
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:57,240
Speaker 4: Next, it's talking like the Rockets reports are that Michael

731
00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,480
Speaker 4: Parsons has worn thin in Dallas and that people in

732
00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:02,960
Speaker 4: the organization will be smiling or breathing a sigh of

733
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:07,360
Speaker 4: relief if Parsons was gone. Meanwhile, Dak's future is very

734
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:11,760
Speaker 4: much in question. Who's out first, Parsons or Deck smiling

735
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:13,040
Speaker 4: of Michael left the building.

736
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I mean, whoever said this is just

737
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 2: so out of their mind. Guys, you have a twenty

738
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:23,279
Speaker 2: four year old superstar. Do you know what your job is?

739
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 2: If you have a twenty something year old multi millionaire

740
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 2: who is one of the best in the world at

741
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 2: what he does, manage him. That's the job that, as

742
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 2: Don Draper would say, that's what the money's for. The

743
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 2: idea that, oh, Mike is a pain in the ass

744
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 2: and that's what you're paid for, is to mitigate that, like,

745
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,280
Speaker 2: shut up, he's.

746
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 3: Going to.

747
00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 2: Exactly That's what I'm saying. It'd be one thing if

748
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 2: it's like the guys out here getting arrested doing he's

749
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,160
Speaker 2: not doing what his podcast annoys.

750
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 3: You give me a break.

751
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:59,319
Speaker 2: I mean, so it's such an outrageous thing. Mike is

752
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,760
Speaker 2: going to be their long Dak. This could be DA's

753
00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:05,560
Speaker 2: last year. So the answer to that question is dak.

754
00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:09,919
Speaker 2: I want to skip the Bronni question because that's too

755
00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 2: long form, Like there's a lot of layers to the

756
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:18,120
Speaker 2: Bronni stuff that we can discuss. H. I don't want

757
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 2: to give it the short, short shrift here, So let's

758
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 2: skip the Bronni question and go to the NBA the

759
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:24,200
Speaker 2: full NBA question.

760
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:27,719
Speaker 4: All right, After a night off of the NBA, either

761
00:49:27,760 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 4: because of the National Championship or the Eclipse, I'm not

762
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:34,799
Speaker 4: quite sure, NBA Basketball Retire returns in full force with

763
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 4: fourteen games tonight. Fourteen NBA games and one night is

764
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 4: too much or too little or not enough?

765
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:44,759
Speaker 2: Sorry, well it's obviously too much. But they the end,

766
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:49,120
Speaker 2: while the NFL is just out here elbowing the NBA

767
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 2: off corners it previously had, like Hey, we're Christmas Day, Nope,

776
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:26,160
Speaker 2: Let's get to these questions.

777
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:29,840
Speaker 4: Mac Prost asked, Nick, have you ever been to the Masters?

778
00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:31,160
Speaker 3: What do you think about the course?

779
00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:34,680
Speaker 2: I've never been to the Masters. If anyone who has it,

780
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 2: you know what this is one of those things. If

781
00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:41,080
Speaker 2: there is a total stranger listening that is a fan

782
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 2: of the show and wants to invite me next year,

783
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,680
Speaker 2: I will go. I don't need to know you. I'm

784
00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 2: not like we can we can become very good friends.

785
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,120
Speaker 2: If anyone wants to invite me to go to the

786
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 2: Masters next year, I obviously will pay my own way

787
00:50:57,719 --> 00:51:02,040
Speaker 2: for everything. But if anyone has has access to Saturday

788
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:04,880
Speaker 2: Sunday at Augusta and would like to invite me for

789
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:08,200
Speaker 2: a day or two, I'm in. I've never been. At

790
00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,799
Speaker 2: some point, all go at some point. Maybe I'll have

791
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:14,080
Speaker 2: enough juice to where I can get the the dockets,

792
00:51:14,560 --> 00:51:17,359
Speaker 2: the ducats myself. I don't have that yet, So if

793
00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 2: anyone out there wants to invite me, I'll.

794
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:24,320
Speaker 3: Go next Justin Rempi asked Nick.

795
00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:28,160
Speaker 2: Don't don't. Don't, don't, don't don't ask that question.

796
00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:37,160
Speaker 4: Don't ask Gerald, Ryan Fitzgerald. Question for Nick, more impressive

797
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,880
Speaker 4: recent dominant chiefs or Yukon men's basketball?

798
00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 2: Well, Youugon's definitely been more dominant. You guns won every

799
00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:47,920
Speaker 2: tournament game by a dozen points. They've covered every spread.

800
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:53,920
Speaker 2: You Gon's been more dominant against their competition. You gun

801
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 2: has been the most Yukon men's basketball in South Carolina

802
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,480
Speaker 2: women's basketball the last couple of years, been the most

803
00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:03,960
Speaker 2: dominant horses in sports across the board. Uh, let's go

804
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:10,520
Speaker 2: to Clark.

805
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:08,600
Speaker 3: Clark Briz asked.

806
00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:12,320
Speaker 4: Nebrez asked Nick, if the trade someone in the offseason,

807
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,080
Speaker 4: who among their two guards should it be.

808
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:18,719
Speaker 2: I think they're gonna trade Tree Young. I think Trey

809
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:21,160
Speaker 2: Young is the guy they're gonna trade, maybe to the Lakers.

810
00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:23,319
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I think I think that's who

811
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:25,840
Speaker 2: they're gonna That's who they're gonna trade trade.

812
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,440
Speaker 4: All right, Next, Derek Brooks said, question for Nick, what

813
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:31,880
Speaker 4: do you think about the nd season tournament winner that

814
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:35,359
Speaker 4: finished seventh or ten getting the sixth seed? This would

815
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 4: get them out of the play in as an incentive.

816
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,799
Speaker 2: The problem I had, like I've heard some people are like,

817
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 2: if you win the nd season tournament, you're automatically in

818
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:48,360
Speaker 2: the playoffs. The problem with that is then it would

819
00:52:48,400 --> 00:52:52,920
Speaker 2: potentially lead to a team, you know, just coasting or

820
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:57,200
Speaker 2: resting guys for a month leading up to the playoffs,

821
00:52:57,239 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 2: and so that's not uh the right answer. I do

822
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 2: think you could do more than just a financial incentive,

823
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,840
Speaker 2: but I don't think you can give an automatic playoff

824
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 2: birth all right, good show off on Thursday and celebration

825
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:14,360
Speaker 2: of the Masters. Demonse. Can't wait to see you in
