I mean, is there 17 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 2: anything better than what you had to deal with on 18 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 2: Saturday in the NBA Playoffs? 19 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 3: Well, the only thing better than that right now is 20 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 3: my mother. So I wanted a happy Mother's Day to 21 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 3: her as well, And this year is a little bit 22 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,479 Speaker 3: different for our family. We lost our matriarch a couple 23 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 3: of months ago, and she's she's moved on. But you know, 24 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 3: I want to send love to my whole family, all 25 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 3: my mom's sisters, and you know, you know we can't 26 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 3: take those those women for granted, man. So so that's 27 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 3: number one for him first and foremost. But yes, I 28 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 3: was on the edge of my seat yesterday. And that 29 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 3: Dallas in that Dallas OKAC series. That game yesterday, man, 30 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,960 Speaker 3: it was back and forth, a lot of runs, okay, 31 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 3: so he scared me. In the third quarter, Dallas responded 32 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,039 Speaker 3: really quickly took the lead. You know that game was 33 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 3: such a physical game yesterday. Man, it was it looked 34 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 3: like a little It gave me flashbacks of football. So 35 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 3: I was even more excited. And Dallas pulled it out. 36 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 3: And then that Boston Cavaliers series, yes, some of christt 37 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 3: Porzingi's guy, he wasn't playing yesterday, but the Tatum and 38 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,040 Speaker 3: Brown showed up and the Celtics took a two. You 39 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 3: want to lead that series, So man, it's been It 40 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 3: was a great day yesterday. 41 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 2: Well, best best of your family, first of all, I 42 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 2: hope they get through today and hopefully they can celebrate 43 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 2: all the great memories that. Yeah, and my mom's back 44 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 2: in Wisconsin probably listening to this show, so send my 45 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 2: happy Mother's Day wishes to her and I'll be talking 46 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 2: to her after the show today. That game with Dallas 47 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 2: and Oklahoma City, if it's physical, it's if it's physical 48 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: in the middle. Dallas is at an advantage with with 49 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 2: PJ Washington Gafford there, but PJ Washington was such a 50 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 2: such a bright spot for them yesterday, and that's this 51 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: is this is where because I don't want to go 52 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: over the edge with it, Carrie, I don't want to 53 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 2: because I'm actually very very tempered. I'm actually gonna start 54 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 2: out with the good news instead of the bad news first. 55 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 2: But if you get that, not that you're gonna get 56 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: twenty seven points from PJ. Washington every single game. But 57 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 2: there was a point in the second half where I 58 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 2: feel it's different when you're feeding off the energy of 59 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 2: someone like PJ. Washington as opposed to maybe Luca doing 60 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 2: what Luca does. Crowd loves it, the team may get 61 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 2: to be an amazement, but I'm not sure if it 62 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 2: has a more overall effect than it does when someone 63 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 2: like PJ. Washington is getting things going or having that 64 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 2: sort of play, there's a different feel when it isn't 65 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 2: you're superstar doing it, and I felt Dallas really fed 66 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 2: off of that and to be able to be able 67 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: to now, you know, after dropping game one, win these 68 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 2: back to back games. If you're getting that sort of 69 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 2: thing from PJ. Washington, it doesn't have to be twenty seven, 70 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 2: you know, I mean it can be eighteen. Then you know, 71 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 2: maybe Luca and Kyrie irving, you know, then pick it 72 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 2: up a little bit. They had twenty two a piece 73 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: in the game. That's what makes Dallas so dangerous because 74 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 2: I think there are times where you're thinking, man, this 75 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 2: is it's just a Luca and Kyrie show. But if 76 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 2: Tim Hardaway Junior does get cooked, if PJ. Washington does 77 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 2: what he did from where he did, it's why Dallas 78 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 2: could could make a trip to the NBA Finals. If 79 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 2: you have that sort of production from a player like PJ. Washington. 80 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's that that element of unknown for the Mavericks, 81 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 3: if you haven't been following them, is just that they 82 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 3: have players. And so PJ. Washington is one of those 83 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,799 Speaker 3: guys that can score. Now his role on that team 84 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 3: has been, you know, a three D type of guy, 85 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 3: but he's a three D type of guy that can 86 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 3: do other things with the ball on the offensive side 87 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 3: of the ball, right, And so I think that you know, 88 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 3: Jason Kidd and his staff has figured out that they're 89 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 3: gonna need that third scorer and not just you know, 90 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,559 Speaker 3: the top two and a bunch of role players scoring 91 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 3: when they have the opportunities, like you need another guy 92 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 3: that can take the pressure off of Luke and Kyrie. 93 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 3: And I think seeing this series and seeing the elevation 94 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 3: and not even just this series, the series before with 95 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 3: the Clippers, right, I mean the fact that he was scoring. 96 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 3: I think he was scoring around fifteen that series, and 97 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 3: that's that's really good, right. And so to have that 98 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 3: third guy be somebody that you can count on to 99 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 3: get you buckets and not just standing in the corner 100 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 3: shooting threes, but being able to put the ball on 101 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 3: the floor, getting the post a little bit, change things 102 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 3: up and make that offense look a little different. It 103 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 3: keeps the other it keeps those opponents on their heels. 104 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 3: And so for him to step up the way he has, 105 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 3: it's been a big revelation for everybody. But if you've 106 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 3: seen it. You know he had this capability. So yeah, 107 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 3: it's been fun to see man and Kyle. We got 108 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 3: to give Kyrie a lot of credit here too. I mean, 109 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 3: I know he's been kind of from the outside end. Look, 110 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 3: he looks pedestrian in the first half, but I think 111 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 3: that's part of his game plan is to get those 112 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 3: other guys going and he can turn it on when 113 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 3: he wants to, and he's been doing a good job 114 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 3: of that. 115 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 2: Do you get since he just brought up Kyrie? Yeah, Hey, 116 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 2: I really love Kyrie's game. Yeah, they like really really 117 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 2: love it. And I was on record I think that 118 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 2: in one on one and if you were to play 119 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 2: in a game of one on one, I know he'd 120 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 2: have trouble defending someone like Kevin dur Man, but man, 121 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 2: you would not be able to guard him at all, 122 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 2: you know, like the handles and everything with him like 123 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 2: he is. He is truly great. 124 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 4: Then it just it just depends on who gets the 125 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 4: ball first. 126 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, if they if they put the coin and Kyrie 127 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 3: gets the ball first, he's going to win the game. 128 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 4: And that's it. 129 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 2: Here's here's my my question, because you brought it up 130 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 2: and it just popped into my mind because I watch 131 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 2: and I love it. And and when when he and 132 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 2: Luca are playing in sync, there is a play in 133 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 2: Oklahoma City. I can't even remember if it was game 134 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,720 Speaker 2: one or game two, but you know, Luca just kind 135 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 2: of throws this cross path across court pass and Kyrie 136 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 2: just like catches it and stride and pulls up and 137 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,559 Speaker 2: nails him three. And it's yeah, it's poetry in motion. 138 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 2: Do you at all in the back of your head 139 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 2: say I wonder when this is going to go off 140 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 2: the rails? 141 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 4: No? 142 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 2: Oh, you don't know. Okay, okay, you don't know, because 143 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 2: I do, and I feel guilty for it, like like 144 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 2: and it's it is nothing to do with it. I 145 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 2: guess it has everything to do with it, you know, 146 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 2: like what what's happened with Kyrie over you know, over 147 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 2: the last you know, five six years and and and 148 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 2: what has gone on even just of of where his 149 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: mind is at? Is his mind right? So I have 150 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 2: the sens I do. So I have the sense of 151 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 2: urgency with Dallas of like, all right, the going is 152 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: good if you're going to get it, get it now, 153 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: but you obviously don't feel that way. 154 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm I'm Uh, I don't think that way in 155 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 3: general about anything, Dan, and so I like, I really 156 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,080 Speaker 3: just try my best to appreciate the moment. The moment 157 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 3: is all we have. And I know we're prisoners of 158 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 3: you know, looking ahead and and trying to figure out 159 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 3: what's next, because that's our society. But for me, man, 160 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 3: it's I'm enjoying this moment. I'm I'm so happy for 161 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 3: Kyrie and and the love he's getting right now because 162 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 3: he's been blasted for some things that he said and done, 163 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 3: and some of it's warranted, but some of it's not. 164 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 3: And so I'm just happy for him in this moment. Man, 165 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 3: we're seeing positive images of him and images of you know, 166 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 3: his basketball game. People are appreciating, appreciating that again, but 167 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:05,679 Speaker 3: also appreciating the man. You see him with his family 168 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,119 Speaker 3: and his wife and his kids, and just just switch 169 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 3: the narrative a little bit. It's been good to see. 170 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's I feel I feel bad comparing him to 171 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 2: my three year old son, who I love with all 172 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 2: my heart. There are times, the absolutely there are times 173 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 2: when I'm like, Okay, I don't want him to see 174 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: the dinosaur because then he's gonna want to watch dinosaurs 175 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 2: for the next hour, like I'm glad we're we're playing 176 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 2: outside or we're doing something like that. And with Kyrie, 177 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 2: I just kind of feel the same, Like I feel 178 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 2: like it's focused right now. Got his contract in the 179 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 2: off season. It was only a three year deal. But 180 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 2: at one point does the other you know, does the 181 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 2: other thing all of a sudden say like, oh, okay, 182 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 2: well that's also grabbed my interest. Yeah, it doesn't have 183 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 2: to be bad. It's just like what takes his attention away? 184 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 2: And I just I get that sense. And I and 185 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 2: I know it's weird talking with Dallas up to one, Yeah, 186 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,119 Speaker 2: but I just feel like show that the time is now. 187 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 4: For Dallas number one. What's your kid's favorite dinosaur? Of course, 188 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 4: you know. 189 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 2: What it is? T Rex? 190 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 4: Oh it's a t rex. 191 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, it's Trannosaurus rex. 192 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 3: Yeap, So like a t rex. Right, He's he's a pretator. 193 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 3: He goes after things in the moment. He doesn't really 194 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 3: worry about what he's gonna eat later. He's worrying about 195 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 3: what he's gonna eat right now when he's hungry. And 196 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 3: I think that's the same with Kyrie, right, I mean, 197 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 3: Kyrie seems and it's not even saying he is. He's 198 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 3: very las of focus, but he's also focused on you 199 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 3: can see it being the best version of a teammate 200 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 3: that he can be. He's doing and saying all the 201 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 3: right things. And right now, I'm, like I said, I'm 202 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 3: not gonna worry about where it's gonna go now. I 203 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 3: think sure, I'm gonna worry about right now in this team. 204 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 3: And he's so good right now, and that team is 205 00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 3: firing right now. 206 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 2: All right. So the Mavericks are up to one on 207 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 2: the Oklahoma City Thunder, and I said that there would 208 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,079 Speaker 2: be bad news coming. I want you to listen to this. 209 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 2: It's about twenty five seconds, this exchange with Luka Dacic 210 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 2: and a reporter after yesterday's one oh five to one 211 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 2: oh one win. And it's nothing with Kyrie, and it's 212 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 2: nothing with PJ. Washington falling off, and it's nothing with 213 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 2: Tim Hardaway Junior maybe not stepping up when he needs to. 214 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 2: It's this twenty five second exchange that just has me 215 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 2: so worried. If I'm a Mavericks fan on my team's 216 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 2: chances to win an NBA title this year. 217 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 4: As you said, you're out there battling, going through a 218 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 4: lot coming off the court, you're clearly laboring what is 219 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 4: what different parts are hurting. 220 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 5: Everything And the last play I split two defenders. Obviously 221 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 5: nobody touched me as you know, hurt money again, but 222 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 5: just trying to beat it out there. Man, we got 223 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 5: to win this all the metas. 224 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 6: Oh well, yeah, and that and hurt my knee again 225 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 6: is not what you want to hear if you're a 226 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 6: MAVs fan, and talking about Lugo, who, by the way, 227 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 6: came into the game with knee and ankle injuries. 228 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 2: You know they listed both of them on the injury report. 229 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 2: So for as great as things are, Kyrie's locked in. 230 00:10:55,640 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 2: PJ Washington step up. They're back up to one, and 231 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 2: if he's not healthy, it's not gonna happen for Dallas. 232 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, they've proven in this series they can win when 233 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 3: he's not one hundred percent and they can win when 234 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:11,080 Speaker 3: he's not putting up historic numbers like we're used to. 235 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 4: So I'm not worried yet. 236 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 3: I mean, if he's not healthy, obviously as the playoffs continue, yeah, 237 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,959 Speaker 3: they won't win it all obviously, But the way he's 238 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 3: playing right now and the way the team's planning right now, 239 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,679 Speaker 3: they can get past this series and hopefully they get 240 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 3: a little time, a little time to rest, because they 241 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 3: will have a little break going into the Western Conference 242 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 3: finals if they make it, and hopefully I'm rooting for 243 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 3: a Denver comeback in that Minnesota series, to take that 244 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 3: series a little longer as well, because if he's gonna 245 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 3: need all the time you can get. And that's the 246 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 3: problem with playoffs, right it's every other day at this point. 247 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 3: Unless you get a break, unless you win early, you know, 248 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,839 Speaker 3: the team goes a little longer. So we need little help. 249 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 3: And if he's not healthy, we're not gonna win it. 250 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 2: Do you think the do you think the grind? See, 251 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 2: that's what I think, like if Minnesota and I and 252 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 2: I actually still like Minnesota and this year, I know 253 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: people Denver's back, I'm not necessarily sure of that. I 254 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 2: don't know where Denver actually entirely was different conversation for 255 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 2: a different segment. Point is is I if you're playing 256 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 2: a series against Minnesota, I know you're not running up 257 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 2: and down like you are with you know, as Luca is, 258 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: but it's likely going to be a more physical series, 259 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 2: and I wonder what that toll would would take on him. 260 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 2: I know you got to go game by game, but 261 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: just as a whole, if you step back and you 262 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 2: watch it, watch him, he labors a lot, and you 263 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: just wonder at one point, at what point is it 264 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 2: going to catch up? And I get like, if you know, 265 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 2: if he's there at eighty five percent, he's probably better 266 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 2: than you know, ninety percent of the NBA or but 267 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:49,679 Speaker 2: it's a it's a different animal with the playoffs, and 268 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 2: I just don't I don't think that they can have 269 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 2: their ultimate success when he is running around the court 270 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 2: battered and bruised and now, as he said, hurt his knee. Again, 271 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: that's just the part for me. 272 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, you one hundred percent right, I mean, you're not 273 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 3: gonna win at all with that version of Luca, right. 274 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 3: But again, he's if you watch Dallas play a lot, 275 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 3: which obviously I do, he plays koy a lot, So 276 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously I don't think he is in this situation. 277 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 3: He's really beat up and he's really hurt. But every game, 278 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 3: I mean literally almost every game, he for a moment 279 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 3: in the game he's hobbled or he or he's he's 280 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 3: not one hundred percent right, then he all of a 281 00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 3: sudden bounces back and he has forty I just hope 282 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 3: that version of him, like you said, eighty five, eighty five, 283 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,439 Speaker 3: ninety percent, Luca, we still have a chance to win 284 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 3: it all. If he doesn't get there, they're in trouble. 285 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 2: You heard me, You heard me. 286 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 4: I am not I'm not hiding this at all. Dan, 287 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 4: you heard me. 288 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 2: You're you're reuning into the Dallas Favericks postgame show a 289 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 2: day after they won here on Fox Sports Radio. You 290 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 2: just carry your roads. I'm Dan Vyer, it is Fox 291 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 2: Sports Sunday. Trust you.

Carry up at Carrie twenty five roads on 294 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,000 Speaker 2: X he can find me at Dan Byer on Fox. 295 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: He picks his spots. The pros do it. You know 296 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 2: when to exert yourself, right, You know when to you 297 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 2: know when to be able to take your break, take 298 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 2: your rest, and that's what Lucas trying to do. I 299 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 2: just I just don't see a scenario if he is 300 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 2: this banged up, and I like Dallas's chances. They probably 301 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 2: are the best trade deadline than anybody in the NBA 302 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 2: in acquiring and what they did and to make the 303 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 2: team what they did. But again, it's just all hinges 304 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 2: on your superstar. And that's what that's what makes me 305 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 2: so nervous if I'm a MAVs fan of like, all right, okay, 306 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 2: Kyrie's good. PJ. Washington has now played, you know, really 307 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 2: well in his last two games, and now Lucas still 308 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 2: banged up and maybe not getting better. It's kind of 309 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 2: the I don't know, the wet blanket over a nice 310 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 2: sunny day. But we'll see MAVs up to one. I 311 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 2: guess that's all they care about. Still not counting out 312 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 2: the thunder. Although people are saying now they're looking too young. 313 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 2: I don't necessarily agree with that.

And there's one thing. 337 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 2: There's this one theme that Carrie I've seen throughout the 338 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 2: NBA playoffs through the first I don't know, first round 339 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 2: and a half or so, and it's just it's never 340 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 2: going to last. It's never going to last because it's 341 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 2: it's it's just not possible. And this theme is how 342 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 2: everybody loves the run of the New York Knicks. Okay, 343 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 2: And there's a reason. There's a reason why I think 344 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 2: people are falling in love with this next team. But 345 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,800 Speaker 2: there's a simple reason why they're gonna fall out of 346 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 2: love with this next team. They're falling in love with 347 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 2: this next team because of the play of Jalen Brunson, 348 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 2: what he embodies. It's not one man show. It's these 349 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 2: Nova Knicks and how they perform and clutch situations. And 350 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 2: they've got the garden rocking again. Is that fair? 351 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 8: Is there? 352 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 2: Am I leaving anything out? Am I missing anything on 353 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 2: why like this love affair of the New York Knicks 354 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 2: has now come about? 355 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 3: I mean, you're right, but I also think there's some 356 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 3: a little swaying going on. Obviously with some of the 357 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 3: people that report in different networks. They are avid you 358 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 3: know Nick Nick fans in general, So the agenda's being 359 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 3: pushed out there that way as well. 360 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 4: That's another with. 361 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 9: Their name or I'm with even came tiff or or 362 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 9: myth Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I thought rhy the 363 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 9: entire name, but yeah, we got it right, you. 364 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 2: Know what I mean? 365 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean, so that's out there. 366 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,120 Speaker 3: But also I think with this round, the second round, 367 00:17:56,119 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 3: where it's even gone to another level is also history, right, 368 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 3: I mean the Knicks, you know, the the Pacers in 369 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 3: history have had some really tough and exciting playoff pushes 370 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 3: and runs together in Unison, so that helps. But yeah, 371 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 3: I think Jalen Bronson and the Villanova the Villanova Knicks 372 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 3: have definitely propelled them to a level of exciting basketball. 373 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 3: And those guys have been tough in clutch, and I 374 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 3: think they also represent most of you know, society, right 375 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 3: like tough. They all went and got their stuff like 376 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,920 Speaker 3: they It wasn't handed to handed to in one of 377 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 3: those guys, so I think they also relate to that 378 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 3: as well. 379 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,240 Speaker 2: There's a parallel that I'm going to draw to. But 380 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 2: it just it dawned on me. Did because I've only 381 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 2: been to one Knicks game at Madison Square Garden. 382 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 4: Huh. 383 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun. It was. It was 384 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 2: great to be there and always wondered what the atmosphere 385 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 2: was like. It was about a decade ago. Mellow was 386 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,160 Speaker 2: still there at the time, so you had that aspect 387 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 2: of it. Yeah, but it was, it was, It was. 388 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,640 Speaker 2: It was really neat to see. I can't imagine how 389 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 2: great it is in the playoffs. Did you take advantage 390 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 2: of your all pronus or you're playing with the New 391 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 2: York Jets to take in any Knicked games in the garden. 392 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 4: Oh for sure. 393 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 3: I was court side a couple of times, Dan, And 394 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 3: you know, obviously the people you see, it's always it's 395 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 3: a show. 396 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 4: I mean, people are there always. 397 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 3: And I was there doing the Lean years, and so 398 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 3: it wasn't like it was super super exciting, but it's 399 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 3: still it still was a buzz though, it really is. 400 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 3: It's like just just one of those things where it's 401 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 3: almost like going to Yankee Stadium, right, the old Yankee 402 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 3: Stadium where was this It's just a buzz naturally. 403 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 2: I am so glad you mentioned that, because this is 404 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 2: the parallel enjoy liking the Knicks now and enjoying this run, 405 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 2: because that fan base is going to become so annoying 406 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 2: if they continue to advance and do it this way 407 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 2: that it's going to be unbearable. And you mentioned the 408 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 2: New York Yankees, and it reminds me of a seven 409 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 2: years ago. It would be if I do the math correctly, 410 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 2: the Yankees had ended up doing twenty sixteen just wasn't 411 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 2: there wasn't their year twenty seventeen comes along, and what 412 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 2: do you know, this is the new Yankees. There's this 413 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 2: rookie by the name of Aaron Judge that ends up 414 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 2: bursting on the scene. And after a disappointing twenty sixteen campaign, 415 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, the Yankees end up competing in 416 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 2: twenty seventeen. It's a ninety win ball club and it's 417 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 2: not the same old Yankees as it was before. And 418 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 2: in fact, because of the newer blood that they had, 419 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 2: the home grown blood that they had, you felt like, wow, 420 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:53,320 Speaker 2: this is actually refreshing. And I feel that's the case 421 00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 2: with the Knicks where this is They've not been great 422 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 2: for a long time. You know. We remember the playoff 423 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 2: series they had with the Hawks and Troy Young and 424 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 2: there was that, but I didn't get a lot of 425 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 2: tracks and they lost in the first round. You know, 426 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 2: a few years back. There hasn't been this Garden and 427 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 2: these Knicks in a long time. But those New York 428 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 2: Yankees had a ninety win season and then immediately went 429 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 2: out and acquired gian Carlos Stanton and everything was done 430 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,399 Speaker 2: like that. The next officer or that next season in 431 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen, that that glow, that beaming light of the 432 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 2: New York Yankees and being this. You know what, They're 433 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 2: a different team than those Evil Empire Yankees. Continued to 434 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 2: be the same New York Yankees that you always knew. 435 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 2: And for as much as we love Jalen Brunson and 436 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 2: what the Knicks are doing, if they continue to win, 437 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 2: their fans are going to get louder and louder and 438 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 2: more obnoxious. And we're all going to get more and 439 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 2: more sick of the New York Knicks fans. So enjoy 440 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,439 Speaker 2: it while you can, But there is going to be 441 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 2: a point. There is going to be a point where 442 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,600 Speaker 2: you're gonna say to yourself kind of over this. You know, 443 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 2: it's a little too much. Maybe they're maybe they're not 444 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 2: my team. Maybe these guys are are too much of 445 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 2: a loud bouse. And I'm not talking about the actual 446 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 2: Knicks players. I'm talking about the actual Knicks fans who 447 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,439 Speaker 2: will not shut up. If this team continues to play, 448 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 2: possibly in the June, it's gonna be unbearable. Oh it's 449 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 2: gonna be unbearable, Carrie, if that ends up happening. 450 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 3: Dan, I think, I I think I get you. I 451 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 3: think it's gonna be unbearable if if they keep winning. 452 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 3: But you know what, they're I think I don't even 453 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,919 Speaker 3: know if they're gonna get past this round, to be 454 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 3: honest with you, and so I think it could be 455 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 3: over quickly. I don't know if it can continue. The injuries, 456 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 3: the minutes that they're playing. You know, Tom Thibodau has 457 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 3: those guys playing a lot of minutes, and you know, 458 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 3: as we can see, the injuries are starting to starting 459 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 3: to take shape and take form, and this team is 460 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 3: I don't I don't care how hard work and how 461 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 3: tough you are. I mean, when those minutes start to 462 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 3: start to pole up the way they are, it's gonna 463 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 3: be tough to finish and get over that hump. So 464 00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 3: I mean, Dan, you may not have to wait too 465 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 3: much longer. I do think the Pacers win today and 466 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 3: even the series, and so we'll see moving forward. But man, 467 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Spike Lee's having a good 468 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 3: time and now Ben Steeler's tweeting about you know, Jalen 469 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 3: Bronson and Josh Harden. It is a little annoying when 470 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 3: it comes to that, but it's it's a little it's 471 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 3: it's still also fun me being a New Yorker and 472 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 3: being attached to that sure to see it happen. 473 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, their injuries are are bound to catch 474 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,439 Speaker 2: up with them, but it has been a great story. 475 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 2: And honestly, they were I mean they were. They were 476 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 2: a couple of minutes away from possibly being a cRIO. 477 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 2: And and and no matter what what Indiana could do 478 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 2: to try to come back from a three to zero deficit, Uh, 479 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 2: is just it's not it's not happening in the NBA 480 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 2: playoffs and so so that tells you. But to your point, 481 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,400 Speaker 2: I actually agree with you that I think I think 482 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 2: the Pacers are the better team. I even said this 483 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 2: last week. I feel like Indiana is the better team, 484 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 2: but I don't know if they're gonna win the series. Yeah, 485 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 2: and and and it's it's not even about the Knicks, 486 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 2: because I do give the Knicks a lot of credit 487 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 2: for making the plays that they made. There were calls 488 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,640 Speaker 2: that went their way, maybe not as many as Rick 489 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:15,639 Speaker 2: Carlisle I although that was the case a kicked ball 490 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: and a and a screen ball where yeah, we're quite questionable, 491 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,719 Speaker 2: but in the end, New York did end up getting 492 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 2: a two to zero lead. But it's also the point 493 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 2: of if the Knicks are making the plays, is Indiana 494 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,160 Speaker 2: making the plays, And I had wondered about that because 495 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 2: you know, there was even there their series that they 496 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 2: played against Milwaukee and Chris Middleton ended up making a 497 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 2: couple of big shots for the Bucks to kind of 498 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 2: keep Milwaukee in, uh, you know, in that game, which 499 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 2: ultimately did go to Indiana after a couple of overtimes, 500 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,880 Speaker 2: but it was if Indiana was winning the game outside 501 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 2: of that one, it was by ten points or they 502 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 2: they were, they were comfortable in their win, and I 503 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 2: just wondered if Indiana is mature enough or built enough 504 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,439 Speaker 2: to win those close games or to win the games 505 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,679 Speaker 2: that they need to. And then them hard hits the 506 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 2: three on Friday Night, and I mean, what a clutch 507 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 2: three that was. But I just Indiana, to me, I 508 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 2: just feel has more of a tendency to make the 509 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 2: wrong play in the moments, even though they're the better team. 510 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:23,880 Speaker 2: I just didn't know if they were gonna be able 511 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 2: to come through in those moments because they seem to 512 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 2: get in their own way at times. 513 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 3: Well, yes, your hundred percent correct, and that's why I 514 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 3: was going next. The Inianda Pacers are front runners. They 515 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 3: really are, and if they get the momentum going and 516 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,239 Speaker 3: they're playing fast and they're playing free basketball, and they 517 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 3: get a double digit lead, the game's over in theory. 518 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 3: And that's how they played this year in close games. 519 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 3: For some reason, they they have a problem. And they 520 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 3: shouldn't have a problem when they have an all star 521 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 3: point guard and and Tyreese Halliburton, they shouldn't have that problem, 522 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 3: but they do. And so I don't know, I don't 523 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 3: know what that's about. But yeah, if it's a close game, 524 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 3: I would definitely give the heirs to the Knicks and 525 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 3: Jalen Bronson because obviously we know he's one of the 526 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 3: ultimate winners in our game, right He's won two in 527 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 3: college and and and he's, uh, you can tell he 528 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 3: has that veteran, steady leadership here because I think he's 529 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 3: the best player in the series. So if it's close, 530 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,159 Speaker 3: it does favor the Knicks. I think the Pacers have 531 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 3: to come out and win this game by double digits 532 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 3: and in this game right here, to tie this series 533 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 3: to a piece. 534 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 2: It's the first of two games today, and this popped 535 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 2: into my head, and I don't know, I don't necessarily 536 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 2: know the answer. I think I know the answer, and 537 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 2: I think the answer is no. But this is not 538 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 2: a question paid for by the NBA. Do you think 539 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 2: that the midseason tournament helps Indiana at all during these games? 540 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 4: No, I don't. 541 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 2: I don't. I don't. I don't think so either, you know, 542 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:54,400 Speaker 2: I mean, it's a you know, one and done scenario. 543 00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 2: But listen, you know they made a run, yeah, right, 544 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,199 Speaker 2: you know they made it to Vegas. They played in 545 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 2: that championship game, if you will, and for what the 546 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 2: NBA tries to hype, I mean, obviously it didn't matter 547 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 2: for the Lakers, right, but I just I just I 548 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 2: just wondered if there was if there was any aspect 549 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 2: of it that we could say, you know what, maybe 550 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 2: maybe this tournament format fits this team. It's it comes 551 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 2: down to matchups, that's it. It obviously does. But I 552 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 2: think that the NBA would want you to believe that, yeah, 553 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 2: the mid season tournament did help Indiana, and this is 554 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 2: you know, this is the reason why you should compete 555 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 2: in November and December and. 556 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 4: Think about this. 557 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 2: Uh. 558 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 3: Yes, they did make it. They made that run to 559 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 3: get there. It's still the regular season, right. Look at 560 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 3: the level of intensity that's been going on in this 561 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 3: playoffs and even just the way that it's it's been officiated. 562 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 3: It's not even the same. It's not close. Yeah, and 563 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 3: so it doesn't it doesn't matter in this in this uh, 564 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 3: in this instance, that. 565 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 2: Was a really dumb question. But I just but I 566 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,360 Speaker 2: thought it would be. I thought at some point, if 567 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 2: Indiana keeps winning, I guarantee it will be brought up somewhere. 568 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 2: I don't think so. And again, it's different in a 569 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 2: one and done scenario. And as he said that, the 570 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 2: format with how it is, is still part of the 571 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 2: regular season. But I just think that the NBA would 572 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 2: like you to believe that the Pacers run does carry 573 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 2: over into the postseason. We'll see today. I'll tell you what, 574 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 2: if the Pacers win today, you're gonna maybe start seeing that, 575 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 2: you know, that side of things gain traction if the 576 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 2: NBA has anything to do with it. All right, he's 577 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 2: carry Roads. I'm dan Byer. Hit him up back carry 578 00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 2: twenty five roads.

Is 667 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 2: that a sign of things to come tonight? Something we'll 668 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 2: discuss next year on Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Sunday 669 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 2: on a Mother's Day. You're gonna happy Mother's Day to 670 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 2: all the moms. Treat her to some basketball.

It all gets going in three thirty Eastern 673 00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 2: time tonight. Nuggets and Timberwolves. Are you buying? Are you 674 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 2: buying stock in the Nuggets? They're back in it that 675 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 2: this series is now in favor of the Denver Nuggets, 676 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 2: and they righted their wrongs and now are on their 677 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:19,320 Speaker 2: way to taking over this series and defending their NBA 678 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 2: title rightfully like the defending NBA champions should. Where are 679 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:30,319 Speaker 2: you on the Denver nuggets sudden resurgence back to greatness? 680 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 4: Yeah? 681 00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 3: I picked Denver to win that that game three, not 682 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,439 Speaker 3: in that fashion obviously, but if two to one, I'm 683 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 3: not buying stock in them just yet. If they win 684 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 3: this game today, then that's a different story because they 685 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 3: get home court back, and at that point, you know, 686 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,879 Speaker 3: for the Minnesota Minnesota Timberwolve psyche to be up too 687 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 3: oh and lose to two consecutive on your home court 688 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 3: would be a devastating loss for them and in their 689 00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 3: in their psyche. But right now, Minnesota Steell in a 690 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,120 Speaker 3: driver's seat, they handle the business. Today, they're up three 691 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 3: to one, and that they will win this series. But 692 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 3: if Denver finds a way to win tonight today, well 693 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 3: we got a different story. 694 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 2: Then if we if we switched roles. Yeah, if we 695 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 2: switched roles and let's say say, you know, Denver's up 696 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 2: to one, Minnesota, you know, comes home and wins that 697 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 2: that game three, or even let's just say Minnesota at 698 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 2: home court and lost and came back, do you think 699 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 2: we would look at this series the same way? Like 700 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 2: the question that I have is a are we giving 701 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 2: more credence to Denver because they're the NBA champs and 702 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 2: Minnesota hasn't been to the stage of the playoffs before, 703 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,720 Speaker 2: you know, obviously with this group, because it's been twenty 704 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 2: years since they won a playoff series. Do you do 705 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,600 Speaker 2: you think it's we're having this we're looking at the 706 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 2: series the same way if we switch the positions of 707 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 2: the two teams. 708 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,360 Speaker 4: I don't know. That's a that's a good question, And I. 709 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 2: Don't think we are. I signed interrupt to ask you 710 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,640 Speaker 2: a question, but I just I think that we look 711 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 2: at these labels, and I think we, oh, Denver's the champs. 712 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 2: Here come the champs. Minnesota hasn't done it before, ye, 713 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 2: But it's not like that, like if you look, we're 714 00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 2: to look at this series in these three games. I 715 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 2: actually give Minnesota more of a pass for losing Game three. 716 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 2: They probably had every reason to read their clippings in 717 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:25,399 Speaker 2: the headlines. They've started out six and oh sweeping Kevin 718 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 2: Durant and Devin Booker and the Suns. And then they 719 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 2: go to Denver, the toughest place to play in the 720 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 2: NBA probably right now, on the road, and you win 721 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 2: the first two games and you destroy them in game two. 722 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:42,280 Speaker 2: Like that to me, like like the anomaly is Denver 723 00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 2: doing what they did to Minnesota in Game three, even 724 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,840 Speaker 2: though we didn't expect what Minnesota was gonna gonna do 725 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 2: to Denver. Denver at every reason to be ready for 726 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,839 Speaker 2: Game two, and maybe Jamal Murray wasn't entirely healthy, and 727 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 2: you know, it happens when you're throwing things on the floor, 728 00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,239 Speaker 2: whatever the case may be. It's I feel that we're 729 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 2: such a victim of you know, of of of recency 730 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 2: and and what has happened. But if you really were 731 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 2: to look at this series. Yeah, Denver's got some nice momentum, 732 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 2: but I still like Minnesota in this in this spot, 733 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 2: and I think that the d Wolves have a great 734 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 2: chance to win today because I just don't think that 735 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 2: they were probably set uh to win that Game three. 736 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 2: But I think that they can win Game four tonight. 737 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,919 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I definitely think they can win Game four. Uh, 738 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 3: that's there's no question. I Like I said, I thought 739 00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 3: Game three would go to Denver just because I mean, 740 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,439 Speaker 3: you know, you you hear about yourself for a couple 741 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 3: of days about how good you are. You're a young team, 742 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 3: obviously confident, but you know, you get, you get, you 743 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,000 Speaker 3: get to be a victim of hearing your own you know, 744 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 3: hearing your own praise, and I think that happened for them. 745 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 3: But again, Game four is a different animal. And that's 746 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,480 Speaker 3: the thing about the playoffs, right, It's it's game to 747 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 3: game and so again, if Denver finds a way to 748 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 3: win this one, I think we're gonna have a different discussion. 749 00:37:57,120 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 3: But until then, Minnesota is still in the driver's seed here. 750 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 3: I mean, they're they're they're at home. They got one 751 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 3: the best players in the world, and they got another 752 00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 3: All Star that can come out and beat you with 753 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 3: with their play, not just their words. And so I'm 754 00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,720 Speaker 3: excited for this game. This is gonna be a big one. 755 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 2: They could also beat you with their defense. 756 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 4: Yes they can. 757 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,800 Speaker 2: Not that the Nuggets are gonna score eighty points. Again, 758 00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,640 Speaker 2: it's not gonna happen. They will, They'll just score probably 759 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 2: twenty or so more after that, Right, it's the it's 760 00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 2: just the fact of there's a there's also a different 761 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 2: feel with Minnesota and and and oddly enough, they I 762 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 2: don't know if they had the energy. I don't know 763 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:36,719 Speaker 2: if Denver I don't think with without having Rudy go 764 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 2: Bear in Game two is what I'm talking about is 765 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 2: I don't think it gave Minnesota a huge momentum boost. 766 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 2: And I don't think Denver took Minnesota lightly. Yeah, I'm 767 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 2: sure you could maybe say those things happen. I just 768 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 2: think that Minnesota is a really, really good basketball team. 769 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 2: And and I think that you could see Game three 770 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,239 Speaker 2: coming a little bit more than you could have ever 771 00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 2: seen Game two. And so I expect Minnesota's and they're 772 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 2: not all young guns. You know, Anthony Edwards is, but 773 00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 2: Mike Conley's not Rudy Gobert is not Heck, Karl Anthony 774 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 2: Towns isn't you know, like the so so for them 775 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:12,000 Speaker 2: to to maybe get a dose of reality and player basketball, 776 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,080 Speaker 2: I expect the I expect the Timberwolves to win. I 777 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 2: called Denver frauds earlier this week when they were down 778 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:18,439 Speaker 2: to oh I still look at their Their run last 779 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 2: year was so easy. All you had to play, was it. 780 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,160 Speaker 2: You got to play two eight seeds and a seventh 781 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 2: seed on your way to an NBA title. And I'm 782 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 2: not saying that it's not a legitimate title. I'm just 783 00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 2: saying the path that they had was the easiest we've 784 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:36,439 Speaker 2: ever seen in the NBA. And I just I don't 785 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 2: if Jamal Murray isn't there, I don't know if the 786 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,400 Speaker 2: other guys can step up behind Jokic to take on 787 00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,879 Speaker 2: the roles that they need. That's why I still question Denver, 788 00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 2: even though they're the NBA cham So. 789 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 3: I got a quick question for you, Dan, but I'll 790 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:48,839 Speaker 3: wait on the on the other side of this break. 791 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 3: But there is there is credence of what you're saying. 792 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,919 Speaker 3: I just think I just think that you know Denver, 793 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,799 Speaker 3: Denver has a heart of the champion and that and 794 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 3: their coach will definitely get that out of them to 795 00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,879 Speaker 3: come out here and perform in game four. So again, 796 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 3: like I said, I'm excited, but I'll ask you the 797 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 3: question on the other side of the break. 798 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 2: All right. And they also have the now three time 799 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 2: MVP and Nikola Jokich. He is Carrie Rhoads.

In about eight minutes, 820 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,839 Speaker 2: it's my eighth annual NBA Draft Lottery rants, which will 821 00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,759 Speaker 2: actually change this year. It will be different than the 822 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:20,359 Speaker 2: other seven rants that I've had annually on the day 823 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 2: of the NBA Draft Lottery, And believe it or not, 824 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 2: I actually like the NBA Draft Lottery, and for reasons 825 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 2: that I'll explain. But that comes up today, usually a 826 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:33,480 Speaker 2: midweek thing, but now they're doing it on a Sunday today, 827 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 2: so we'll find out who gets the number one overall pick. 828 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 2: And kind of a lackluster draft, if you will, at 829 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 2: least not a lot of huge names that people recognize. 830 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 2: But anyway, someone's gonna get the number one overall pick today. 831 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 2: Plus are the Celtics back and worst Way to get fired? 832 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,399 Speaker 2: A lot to get to and then we're gonna wrap 833 00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 2: this bad boy up because the NFL schedule comes out 834 00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:54,319 Speaker 2: on Wednesday. We got to dive in a little to 835 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,880 Speaker 2: that we know who everybody's gonna play. It's just a 836 00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:00,279 Speaker 2: matter of when we'll put our heads together and see 837 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:01,800 Speaker 2: if we can figure it out. But you had a 838 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 2: question for me, Yes, Sarry Rhodes, And does it have 839 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 2: to do with the Denver Minnesota series? 840 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:08,359 Speaker 4: It does? It does. 841 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,399 Speaker 3: So it seems like you're you're a little bit off 842 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 3: of the Denver the Denver train, and you you you 843 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,920 Speaker 3: it seems like you felt like that run they had 844 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 3: last year was an easy win, a cakewalk, which is 845 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 3: I agreed with with most of that sentiment. But do 846 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:26,319 Speaker 3: you come into a playoff series and you do you 847 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 3: look at and I think my question for you is, 848 00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 3: do you look at it as okay, this team has 849 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,959 Speaker 3: been there before. They they know what it takes to get, 850 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 3: you know, through the hurdles and navigate the playoff runs. 851 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:41,239 Speaker 3: Or do you go with the side of that unknown, 852 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 3: where you know these kids can come in and not 853 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,920 Speaker 3: be scared and just play basketball and kind of go 854 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 3: with blind faith. Do you do you like either one 855 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:50,919 Speaker 3: more than the other? 856 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,840 Speaker 2: I like I like the former, I like the experience 857 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 2: more and I just I just I think that here 858 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,480 Speaker 2: Street plays out and shows that ultimately I think the 859 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 2: better team is going to win. Yes, But if it's close. 860 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,759 Speaker 2: I think that experience can really help and so so 861 00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 2: I'll leave it if I've got more to add. But 862 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,360 Speaker 2: if there's more that you wanted to add, I'll let 863 00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,399 Speaker 2: you do that before I say what I'm about to say. 864 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:19,759 Speaker 3: And yes's and that's where I wanted to go with it, 865 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:21,759 Speaker 3: and that's why I said this game is such a 866 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,279 Speaker 3: pivotal game, right if it gets the two to two, 867 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 3: I definitely favor Denver winning this series. If Minnesota wins 868 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 3: this one and they go up three to one, I 869 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 3: think this I think what we're talking about right now 870 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 3: really doesn't matter. But if Denver wins this one and 871 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,319 Speaker 3: they get the two two, I'm definitely gonna favor the 872 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,040 Speaker 3: side of the team that's been there. And so that's 873 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:43,600 Speaker 3: why I was kind of lending this conversation too. But 874 00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 3: I think that's will probably answer my part of what 875 00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:50,160 Speaker 3: I'm the reason why I was saying that. 876 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,960 Speaker 2: This is what I'm gonna say, and I think it's 877 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 2: If Denver wins today, it is a crippling shot to Minnesota, 878 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 2: and the reason being because of all of the equity 879 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 2: that they built up in winning games one and two 880 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 2: is gone. It's evaporated. Now they could say to themselves, hey, 881 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,839 Speaker 2: we've shown that we can win in Denver. But then 882 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 2: I'm sitting at home saying, you won twice, what is 883 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 2: the likelihood that you're gonna win three games in Denwik, 884 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 2: right or you know, whether it be a game five 885 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 2: or a game seven. And so the momentum in that 886 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:28,359 Speaker 2: point I think would be daunting. But the one thing 887 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,920 Speaker 2: that I will say about the experience, and I do 888 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,320 Speaker 2: think I think this played a role in the first 889 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 2: two games that the sides played was when I mentioned 890 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 2: Denver's run last year, I mentioned they played two eight seeds. 891 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:48,839 Speaker 2: One of those eight seeds were the Minnesota Timberwolves. And 892 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 2: so when your Minnesota, there is actually experience there. Now, 893 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:57,439 Speaker 2: they ended up winning a Game four, they were down 894 00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 2: three to zero in the series, and maybe it was 895 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,960 Speaker 2: over and maybe Denver gives it to them, but the 896 00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 2: Game five was one that was very close. Anthony Edwards 897 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,320 Speaker 2: has a chance to force overtime at the end, doesn't happen, 898 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:14,239 Speaker 2: ends up remember through a chair like as you ran 899 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 2: off the court, and you know there was you know 900 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 2: a little bit of controversy there. But Minnesota played with 901 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 2: Denver in that series, and I think that really helped 902 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:28,480 Speaker 2: Minnesota in terms of being like, Okay, we won a 903 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,120 Speaker 2: game in that series, and we had an opportunity to 904 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,879 Speaker 2: win a game five and it didn't happen for them, 905 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 2: And I think that helps them. And so while Denver 906 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 2: has the experience because they're the NBA champs, even though 907 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 2: Minnesota hasn't been in this spot before, they've played Denver before, 908 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,840 Speaker 2: they've played them in a playoff series before, and you 909 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 2: actually may have a bit of a chip on your 910 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 2: shoulder to you know, maybe right or wrong from a 911 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,399 Speaker 2: year ago. So I think that all plays in Minnesota's 912 00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 2: favor in this series. Aside from the fact I just 913 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,400 Speaker 2: think that they're really really good defensively, I do have 914 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:07,720 Speaker 2: questions about others stepping up, and I I love jokicch 915 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,800 Speaker 2: is great. Jokich is amazing, And I think Jamal Murray 916 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,239 Speaker 2: is really really good. Michael Malone is a heck of 917 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,760 Speaker 2: a head. Guilt. Yes, there's a lot of great pieces. 918 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,520 Speaker 2: It's the other pieces that that are are underneath that 919 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:23,960 Speaker 2: I just sometimes wonder about. And like, you know, can 920 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,839 Speaker 2: Michael Porter Junior carry you? If Jamal Murray is three 921 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:31,839 Speaker 2: for eighteen? You know, is you know Aaron Gordon's Aaron Gordon. 922 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 2: Really they're any problems with Aaron Gordon or what he is. 923 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:36,680 Speaker 2: But do you get enough from from the guard player, 924 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 2: at least from the perimeter to pick up if you're 925 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,880 Speaker 2: not getting it from the other the other places that 926 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 2: you're usually getting it from. By the way, you're always 927 00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 2: getting it from Yo Kich, you know, I mean except 928 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 2: you know the sixteen point outing. You know that the 929 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,600 Speaker 2: that the ahead I believe in in game two, Like, 930 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:53,920 Speaker 2: you're always getting that from from him. So it's just 931 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 2: if if it's not Murray and the game is off, 932 00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:00,440 Speaker 2: who else steps up and that that is? I just 933 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 2: wonder about Denver in that scenario. 934 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:05,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, the other thing about that series you brought up 935 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 3: last year series Minnesota wasn't full strength last year. They 936 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 3: didn't have Daniels in and they didn't have Nazried in either. 937 00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 3: Who are two instrumental players in this series obviously in 938 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:17,360 Speaker 3: this playoff run. So I mean we talk about the 939 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,880 Speaker 3: more talented team, I think the more talented team is Minnesota. 940 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 3: I just don't I think when you stack up the 941 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:26,600 Speaker 3: top players right in this series, it can go either way. 942 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:30,640 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, Jokic is one Anthony jo was 943 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,239 Speaker 3: is one A. They're close, and then you go to 944 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 3: that next tier Karl Anthony Towns and Jamal Murray. I mean, 945 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,760 Speaker 3: the way this series has been so far, Karl Anthony 946 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 3: Towns is better than Jamal Murray at this point. But 947 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,759 Speaker 3: I don't put it past Jamal Murray stepping up and 948 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 3: being better than Karl Anthony Towns at this point. So 949 00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 3: that's what's gonna swing the series. Obviously, the bench. The 950 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 3: bench in Minnesota, they have more depth, they have more 951 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 3: opportunity to get space as the game goes on. But 952 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:03,320 Speaker 3: top tier players in this in this matchup is pretty even, 953 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:05,160 Speaker 3: and and I think when it comes to being even 954 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:09,000 Speaker 3: that way, I have reservations and I always have about 955 00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:12,799 Speaker 3: Karl Anthony Towns. He seems like when he's going, he's 956 00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,840 Speaker 3: so good, but there seems to be at a point 957 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 3: in most games he does something really stupid, and so 958 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 3: I want to see him mature in in in these 959 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:26,480 Speaker 3: moments and actually play really good basketball all the way throughout. 960 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 3: And I think that's my only reservation with that team. 961 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 13: He but when he gets going, when he gets doing, yeah, 962 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 13: oh it's so good. Yeah, yes, But it's like he 963 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 13: always has like a little snap fool or something. During it, 964 00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:42,440 Speaker 13: he'll he'll do like two silly files to get himself 965 00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 13: in bowel trouble, or he'll you know, he'll just he 966 00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:47,560 Speaker 13: just does something out of the ordinary, and it's it's 967 00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 13: very it's very irritating because he's so good. 968 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,200 Speaker 2: It's it's actually how I look as the Indiana Pacers 969 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 2: as a team, like they just do something like what, yeah, 970 00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,000 Speaker 2: where that Miles Turder? What are you doing? 971 00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:58,239 Speaker 8: Wait? 972 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:01,440 Speaker 2: What is Haliburton. That's it's kind of how I view it. Ye, 973 00:49:02,040 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 2: we talked about the Pacers and X We talked a 974 00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:06,160 Speaker 2: lot about the Timberwolves and Nuggets, and we did started 975 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:08,359 Speaker 2: off the show talking about the Mavericks in their win 976 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 2: against the thunder. We did not touch on the Celtics Calves. 977 00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:13,880 Speaker 2: I don't know if we need to. I think that 978 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 2: series is overwet. I know that people have questions about Boston. Yeah, 979 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 2: but when Boston is challenged, Yeah, you know, they came 980 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,239 Speaker 2: out like gangbusters last night, and granted they didn't put 981 00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:27,640 Speaker 2: the Calves away, but it wasn't like the Calves ever 982 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 2: really got back in and I think the closest they 983 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,799 Speaker 2: got in the second half was nine, but Tatum had 984 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,799 Speaker 2: thirty three, Jalen Brown in twenty eight, Derk White had 985 00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:37,840 Speaker 2: a couple of big threes early in that second half. 986 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,880 Speaker 2: I just no matter what happens, no matter what happens 987 00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 2: with Boston, I just don't think that Cleveland is equipped 988 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,160 Speaker 2: to overtake Boston in the series. And I think that's 989 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:48,160 Speaker 2: all we have to say about that. 990 00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's not much to say. 991 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:50,040 Speaker 2: I do. I agree. 992 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:51,520 Speaker 3: I think Boston is just I mean, they're going to 993 00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:54,080 Speaker 3: win this series. It's just how many games and win 994 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:59,800 Speaker 3: And it's crazy. I guess you get to see you no, 995 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 3: Brown and Tatum after losses, and you know they come 996 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 3: out and play well. I think the person that's planned 997 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 3: the best for them right now is Brown, and you 998 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 3: get to see him. He's he's been such a steady 999 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 3: enforce for those guys. He's becoming more of a leader, 1000 00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 3: more of a verbal guy. And so, you know, like 1001 00:50:16,239 --> 00:50:17,920 Speaker 3: you said, this series is over. I don't know what's 1002 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:20,160 Speaker 3: wrong with Cleveland, and I don't really know what's wrong 1003 00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 3: with Darius Garland because I mean, you know, two years 1004 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:27,520 Speaker 3: ago he was an All Star and you know we 1005 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:29,360 Speaker 3: thought he was gonna, you know, be the second coming 1006 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:32,839 Speaker 3: of whoever he was supposed to be, but he has 1007 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,720 Speaker 3: not reached that level in these playoffs, and he looks 1008 00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:38,680 Speaker 3: like his confidence is shaken. So if I mean, if 1009 00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:40,680 Speaker 3: you had an all star version of Garland and the 1010 00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,000 Speaker 3: way Mitchell's been planned, then we could have a different story. 1011 00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 3: But that Garland hasn't showed up. 1012 00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, Mitchell was a one man's show for a while 1013 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:49,439 Speaker 2: in last night's game, and you're gonna need a lot 1014 00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 2: more to top the Boston Celtics. All right, are you 1015 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:56,000 Speaker 2: ready for my eighth annual NBA Draft Lottery? Ramts Man? 1016 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 4: The floor is yours, dad, buyer, do you think? 1017 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:02,320 Speaker 2: So? The draft takes place today and the Detroit Pistons 1018 00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:05,879 Speaker 2: and Washington Wizards have the best odds to get the 1019 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:09,839 Speaker 2: first overall pick fourteen percent. Again, we don't really the 1020 00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 2: draft is is whatever. The NBA Draft is not what 1021 00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 2: it once was. But if you have someone like Victor 1022 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:19,360 Speaker 2: Wemban Yama, like you did last year, you're gonna pay attention. 1023 00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:22,200 Speaker 2: And in fact, all of the draft drama I think 1024 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:25,840 Speaker 2: last year was basically taking care of in the draft lottery, 1025 00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:29,200 Speaker 2: just the fact of who was gonna get Victor Webbin Yama. 1026 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:31,320 Speaker 2: Now there was a question, all right, does Brandon Miller 1027 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 2: go to to Scoot Henderson go to But really it 1028 00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,839 Speaker 2: was about wembin Yama the next star, and he lived 1029 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:38,359 Speaker 2: up to all of the expectations. 1030 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:38,879 Speaker 4: Yes he did. 1031 00:51:38,960 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 3: Ye. 1032 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:42,320 Speaker 2: I it thought last year leading into the NBA Draft 1033 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:45,480 Speaker 2: lottery that I the one team I did not want 1034 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:48,440 Speaker 2: to get Victor wembin Yama was the San Antonio Spurs 1035 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:52,279 Speaker 2: because I did not want them to be blessed for 1036 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:57,560 Speaker 2: the third time on getting a cornerstone, a generational player, 1037 00:51:57,680 --> 00:52:00,480 Speaker 2: like they did with David Robinson, like they did later 1038 00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 2: with Tim Duncan, and then, as it turned out, they 1039 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:07,680 Speaker 2: did twenty five some years later with now Victor wembin Yama. 1040 00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 2: Like it's it is, there's some there's some fruitful. I 1041 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:14,799 Speaker 2: don't know there's a magic tree in San Antonio that 1042 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:17,879 Speaker 2: just produces, you know, the number one overall pick when 1043 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:21,279 Speaker 2: there are great players available in that draft. But it 1044 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 2: happened to the San Antonio Spurs. I do tend to 1045 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:28,120 Speaker 2: lean on the NBA conspiracy theory that they're like, we 1046 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,239 Speaker 2: can't mess this up. So he's got to go to 1047 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 2: a place where there is stability and a good head 1048 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 2: coach so let's send them to San Antonio. I'm all 1049 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:37,960 Speaker 2: for those theories because I think that's what makes the 1050 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:41,480 Speaker 2: draft lottery. But what doesn't make the draft lottery and 1051 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,520 Speaker 2: what has bothered me so much and the reason my 1052 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:46,680 Speaker 2: rant actually changes this year I'll get to in a second, 1053 00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:49,720 Speaker 2: But the draft lottery used to be a point where 1054 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:52,360 Speaker 2: you would have seven teams and they all had the 1055 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:55,359 Speaker 2: exact same chance of getting the number one overall pick. 1056 00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 2: And you know what that did carry that allows you 1057 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:01,719 Speaker 2: to compete in until the end of the year. You 1058 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:05,359 Speaker 2: weren't having organizations tanking. I don't think players are out 1059 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 2: on the floor missing shots so their team gets a 1060 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 2: better draft pick. I don't think that happens. But I 1061 00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:13,880 Speaker 2: do think that as an organization, you're playing certain guys, 1062 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:17,440 Speaker 2: you're making certain moves, whether you're in or you're out, 1063 00:53:18,000 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 2: and I think that that plays a big role. And 1064 00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:24,920 Speaker 2: when you have a weighted NBA Draft lottery system, it 1065 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 2: encourages tanking because there is no penalty. There's actually a 1066 00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 2: reward for doing worse. And when you look at the 1067 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:36,960 Speaker 2: NBA standings this season, and I know that the NBA 1068 00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:39,160 Speaker 2: doesn't want to call the play in tournament, the playoffs, 1069 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:41,080 Speaker 2: So if you didn't make the play in tournament, you 1070 00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:44,319 Speaker 2: are in the draft lottery. But in all reality, there 1071 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:47,200 Speaker 2: were ten teams that didn't make it into the play 1072 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 2: in Tournament or the NBA playoffs, five from the East 1073 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:53,080 Speaker 2: and five from the West. I would argue that one 1074 00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 2: of those ten actually had an interest in making it 1075 00:53:57,080 --> 00:53:59,760 Speaker 2: into the play in tournament, and that was the Houston Rockets. 1076 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:02,040 Speaker 2: It was the only team so you had. So you 1077 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 2: have nine teams, a third of the league that isn't 1078 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:10,160 Speaker 2: really interested in winning basketball games. And I understand that 1079 00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 2: this happens in other sports, but the reason they aren't 1080 00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:16,000 Speaker 2: interested is because of the format that you have set 1081 00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:20,399 Speaker 2: up for your for your bad teams to be able 1082 00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 2: to get a top pick. So I would love for 1083 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:26,279 Speaker 2: us to go back to the way that it once was. 1084 00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:29,880 Speaker 2: Everybody gets the same shot. And the reason that I 1085 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 2: love this format was because I felt that there were teams, 1086 00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:36,960 Speaker 2: maybe like the Houston Rockets or a team that was 1087 00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 2: competing for an opportunity where you could take it. Take 1088 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 2: a team that was eighth or ninth in the West, 1089 00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 2: and if you added the number one overall pick to 1090 00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 2: that franchise, guess what that's good for the league. That's 1091 00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:52,800 Speaker 2: really good for the league. It's better than having Brandon 1092 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:55,799 Speaker 2: Miller playing in Charlotte. Nobody knows what he's doing, you know. 1093 00:54:55,920 --> 00:54:57,960 Speaker 2: Like that's like if if you were to have a 1094 00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 2: case like that, where if Victor Wamanyamo was added to 1095 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:05,080 Speaker 2: you know, one of these contenders. I mean, my goodness, 1096 00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 2: if you went to Golden State, you know, like what 1097 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 2: what could have happened? I don't know. Golden State wasn't 1098 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:11,000 Speaker 2: in the lottery, but I actually felt that like if 1099 00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:13,720 Speaker 2: you even strengthened kind of the middle of your league 1100 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 2: with the first overall pick, that would be better for you. 1101 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 2: And that was always my rant about the NBA Draft lottery. 1102 00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:23,400 Speaker 2: Now the reason that I changed it this year is 1103 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:26,279 Speaker 2: because of what is going on. Because I actually think 1104 00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:30,239 Speaker 2: teams would rather have the opportunity to get a number 1105 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,800 Speaker 2: one overall pick than actually be the ten seed in 1106 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,400 Speaker 2: the playoffs right in the plan. I think that they 1107 00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:38,560 Speaker 2: would rather have that that better chance, that ten percent 1108 00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:41,399 Speaker 2: chance of getting that number one overall pick than having 1109 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:44,000 Speaker 2: to win two road games and then likely going to 1110 00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,800 Speaker 2: be the sacrificial lamb to the top seed in the conference. 1111 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,439 Speaker 2: That that and that's so that's so that's the only 1112 00:55:50,480 --> 00:55:53,439 Speaker 2: thing that that that ended up changing. My thought is now, 1113 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:56,200 Speaker 2: as if you actually did have an unweighted draft where 1114 00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:59,799 Speaker 2: everybody had the same exact odds of winning, you would 1115 00:55:59,840 --> 00:56:02,000 Speaker 2: have have teams that would rather be in the draft 1116 00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,840 Speaker 2: lottery because it's better for their future than actually playing 1117 00:56:04,840 --> 00:56:05,800 Speaker 2: in the playing tournament. 1118 00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 3: That's a great, great point. I mean, like you said, 1119 00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 3: I mean, imagine imagine Houston Rockets having that guy right 1120 00:56:14,320 --> 00:56:17,640 Speaker 3: and and and being able to play uh Shin Shin 1121 00:56:17,719 --> 00:56:21,160 Speaker 3: Gooon and women Yama as your as your forwards and 1122 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:23,280 Speaker 3: that in the team around. Man, that would be exciting, 1123 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:26,400 Speaker 3: and it would it would eliminate those guys that are 1124 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:30,000 Speaker 3: just trying to fully tank because you know, everybody has 1125 00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:32,719 Speaker 3: the same odds. And so one hundred percent, hundred percent, 1126 00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 3: hundred percent agree with that, with that, with that rent 1127 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:37,000 Speaker 3: and it's it's fun. 1128 00:56:37,480 --> 00:56:40,399 Speaker 2: Dallas was on the outside looking in. Yeah last year, right, 1129 00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:42,879 Speaker 2: you know, like and and I forget if there were 1130 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:44,359 Speaker 2: trades and they didn't have the pick, but the point 1131 00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:47,040 Speaker 2: being they had their pick, and it was you know, 1132 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:49,439 Speaker 2: it was like what do you what are you sitting there? 1133 00:56:49,960 --> 00:56:51,320 Speaker 2: You know, like all of a sudden they get the 1134 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 2: number one overall pick. Now you've got yeah, Luca and 1135 00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:57,839 Speaker 2: Victor women Yama, like and and and guess what they 1136 00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,760 Speaker 2: wouldn't have been. They wouldn't have they were going for something, 1137 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:03,080 Speaker 2: or you're trying for something, just like Houston was trying 1138 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 2: for something and you don't get penalized for it. They're 1139 00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:07,560 Speaker 2: winning more games at the end of the year, and 1140 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 2: they're losing more of a chance to get the number 1141 00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:13,319 Speaker 2: one pick like that, you know, like so like that 1142 00:57:13,360 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 2: takes that away. But it's the problem now with the 1143 00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:17,960 Speaker 2: new shiny toy of the of the play in tournament 1144 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 2: and how that's had great success. I think teams now 1145 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:23,480 Speaker 2: would be like, well, we don't care as much as 1146 00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 2: the playing tournament if we've got the same odds. But 1147 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:28,320 Speaker 2: I just have always felt that the weighted lottery was 1148 00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 2: actually causing more problems because it gave organizations more reasons 1149 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 2: to tank and because you did want better odds, and 1150 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,160 Speaker 2: I just don't think that that's good for the league. 1151 00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:39,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I agree with you. That's a that's a 1152 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:40,400 Speaker 4: great point. 1153 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 2: Programming note.

When Ryan looks like 1272 01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:32,280 Speaker 3: he's studious, he would like he paid attention in social 1273 01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:33,120 Speaker 3: studies for sure. 1274 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:35,560 Speaker 4: Denver, Well, Denver. 1275 01:03:35,720 --> 01:03:39,480 Speaker 8: Yet, since we're going with where they reside, yes, I 1276 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:43,240 Speaker 8: believe the Timberwolves, then right, if they're in Minneapolis, yes, 1277 01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:46,919 Speaker 8: if we're going through it's not New York. 1278 01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:55,160 Speaker 4: It's come on, Ryan, you got too. I know those 1279 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:56,480 Speaker 4: two are good, and it's yeah. 1280 01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:58,920 Speaker 2: It's where it's where they play, you know, where they're games, 1281 01:03:59,160 --> 01:03:59,960 Speaker 2: where they play their game. 1282 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:09,960 Speaker 8: Suddenly I'm questioning myself as whether or not Boston I 1283 01:04:10,040 --> 01:04:15,280 Speaker 8: believe it is. And then the only three the Pacers 1284 01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:20,040 Speaker 8: would be in Indiana and Thennolis. Yes, okay, so what 1285 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:21,200 Speaker 8: three do you want to go? 1286 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:24,920 Speaker 3: Pacers go to Minnesota, and what's the what's the first 1287 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:26,080 Speaker 3: one you said in Denver? 1288 01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:27,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll take those threes. 1289 01:04:27,480 --> 01:04:33,000 Speaker 2: Okay, show me Denver, Yeah, Nuggets absolutely, state capital is 1290 01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:38,960 Speaker 2: in Denver. Show me Indianapolis, all right?

Minneapolis. You're gonna kick yourself you're gonna kick yourself. Dallas, No, Boston, 1294 01:04:57,920 --> 01:05:02,760 Speaker 2: Boston was, and the other Oklahoma City Oah City.

So Cleveland 1298 01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:18,920 Speaker 2: would not suffice but two points in that one. It 1299 01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 2: was hard.

Like it's forty 1304 01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:40,120 Speaker 2: years later, and it's like, no, it's not going to happen. 1305 01:05:42,160 --> 01:05:43,880 Speaker 2: My wife did this to me. She goes, I know 1306 01:05:43,920 --> 01:05:46,920 Speaker 2: all the state capitals. I asked her the first state 1307 01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:51,600 Speaker 2: and she didn't get it right. This exercise ended quickly. Yeah, 1308 01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:55,560 Speaker 2: all right, let's uh. She got a bunch of others. 1309 01:05:55,960 --> 01:05:56,800 Speaker 2: It's a mother's day. 1310 01:05:56,960 --> 01:06:00,440 Speaker 3: I was just I was just about to say win. 1311 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:02,960 Speaker 3: Don't win the fight here to win the war.

Final question name four 1314 01:06:10,000 --> 01:06:13,960 Speaker 2: of five NBA teams that have won the NBA Draft 1315 01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:17,520 Speaker 2: Lottery the most times. It's funny, I have my draft 1316 01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:21,040 Speaker 2: lottery rant. I think I've brought this question up a 1317 01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:23,479 Speaker 2: couple of times in easy as one, two, three, four, 1318 01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:27,480 Speaker 2: Name four of the five NBA teams that have won 1319 01:06:27,560 --> 01:06:30,720 Speaker 2: the draft lottery the most Now, carry this doesn't go 1320 01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:33,880 Speaker 2: back to nineteen fifty five. The NBA Draft Lottery started 1321 01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,720 Speaker 2: in the mid eighties, so you only have to go 1322 01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:40,640 Speaker 2: back that far.

And also, just to clarify, 1324 01:06:45,240 --> 01:06:49,000 Speaker 2: if they trade the pick, they still get credit for it, 1325 01:06:49,040 --> 01:06:51,200 Speaker 2: so it's not trading for the pick yet. 1326 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:53,520 Speaker 4: Let's let's go Cleveland. 1327 01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:57,400 Speaker 2: Okay, and you can use any of the lifelines if 1328 01:06:57,400 --> 01:06:59,960 Speaker 2: you want.

They had the five most five and 1381 01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:56,760 Speaker 2: then it was Orlando with four. So Orlando remember a 1382 01:09:56,760 --> 01:10:01,320 Speaker 2: couple of years ago at Paolo ben Carro, they ended 1383 01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:03,840 Speaker 2: up winning it back to back years Sack and Penny, 1384 01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:08,160 Speaker 2: Shack and Penny. But yeah, so the Clippers Olo Candy 1385 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:12,160 Speaker 2: in ninety eight. It was actually the Bulls won Elton 1386 01:10:12,240 --> 01:10:15,120 Speaker 2: Brand in nineteen ninety nine. The Clippers went it with 1387 01:10:15,200 --> 01:10:18,040 Speaker 2: Danny Manning in nineteen ninety eight. Nineteen eighty six, they 1388 01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 2: actually traded the pick to Cleveland for Brad Doherty. You 1389 01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:24,759 Speaker 2: had Blake Griffin there as well, and the Clippers actually 1390 01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:27,200 Speaker 2: landed it in twenty eleven, But that was traded to 1391 01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:32,040 Speaker 2: Cleveland because of a trade where they picked Kyrie Irving. 1392 01:10:32,280 --> 01:10:34,960 Speaker 2: So there it was Manzi's point of we sucked a 1393 01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:39,200 Speaker 2: lot was very very appipile, and that's what put Cleveland 1394 01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:49,120 Speaker 2: atop the atop the list. Catchy in Orlando also had 1395 01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:52,120 Speaker 2: it for Dwight Howard. So like number one overall pick, 1396 01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:55,040 Speaker 2: they've cashed in. Yeah, you know, they drafted Chris Weber 1397 01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:58,960 Speaker 2: and then the draft they trade uh with Penny Hardway 1398 01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:01,719 Speaker 2: to bring him in. But uh but yeah, so Orlando 1399 01:11:01,840 --> 01:11:05,120 Speaker 2: is cashed in when they've had number one. It was Clippers, Magic, Cavs, 1400 01:11:05,160 --> 01:11:10,160 Speaker 2: Spurs and the new Jersey slash Brooklyn Nets five answers 1401 01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:11,000 Speaker 2: that were available. 1402 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:13,599 Speaker 3: Wow, Orlando really did cash in, didn't they?

All right, 1482 01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:21,200 Speaker 2: I've got we know who everybody's going to play, we 1483 01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:25,439 Speaker 2: just don't know when. We know where. For the most part. Heck, 1484 01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:27,360 Speaker 2: we know that the Packers and Eagles are going to 1485 01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:31,000 Speaker 2: play in Week one in Brazil on Friday night of 1486 01:15:31,040 --> 01:15:34,320 Speaker 2: the opening week of the NFL season, So we already 1487 01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:37,040 Speaker 2: know like one of the games, and I expect us 1488 01:15:37,080 --> 01:15:41,000 Speaker 2: to get some leaks throughout the next couple of days 1489 01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:43,960 Speaker 2: on who's going to be playing the opener, who's going 1490 01:15:44,040 --> 01:15:46,120 Speaker 2: to be playing on Thanksgiving, who's going to be playing 1491 01:15:46,120 --> 01:15:48,800 Speaker 2: in these London games. So let's start it out. Are 1492 01:15:48,800 --> 01:15:50,680 Speaker 2: you all ready to throw your two cents in on this? 1493 01:15:51,479 --> 01:15:55,320 Speaker 2: The Kansas City Chiefs, we expect to host the kickoff 1494 01:15:55,360 --> 01:15:58,800 Speaker 2: opener in Kansas City. Now there are eight options for 1495 01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:02,200 Speaker 2: them to play in that opener if they do open 1496 01:16:02,240 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 2: at home? Yeah, Denver, the Chargers, the Raiders, Cincinnati, Baltimore, Houston, Tampa, 1497 01:16:11,240 --> 01:16:14,320 Speaker 2: and New Orleans. All right, guys, who are we going 1498 01:16:14,360 --> 01:16:17,080 Speaker 2: to settle on for the Chiefs to play in the 1499 01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:18,120 Speaker 2: opener on Thursday night? 1500 01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:18,320 Speaker 4: Oh? 1501 01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:20,400 Speaker 3: That first game is definitely going to be the Chiefs 1502 01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:22,559 Speaker 3: and the Ravens. That's not even I don't think that. 1503 01:16:22,640 --> 01:16:24,280 Speaker 3: I don't think there's a question there. I mean, the 1504 01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:29,160 Speaker 3: draw for that game would be huge. Homes Jackson would 1505 01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:29,800 Speaker 3: be a big deal. 1506 01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:32,759 Speaker 2: You guys, have you have any problems with that first? 1507 01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:35,720 Speaker 8: That feels like a slam dunk? I will say a 1508 01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:40,559 Speaker 8: couple of dark horses, maybe Houston or the Chargers just 1509 01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:41,080 Speaker 8: because of. 1510 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know last year we were kind of 1511 01:16:43,400 --> 01:16:47,880 Speaker 2: caught off guard by Detroit being that team. But I 1512 01:16:48,280 --> 01:16:51,160 Speaker 2: you know what, I'm gonna go carry because he's had it, 1513 01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:52,400 Speaker 2: said it with such conviction. 1514 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:54,479 Speaker 14: Yeah, it's the logical answer. 1515 01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:58,240 Speaker 4: Yes, And I may have a little into I do not. 1516 01:16:58,320 --> 01:17:00,439 Speaker 4: I'm joking. I'm joking. No, I do not. I don't. 1517 01:17:00,479 --> 01:17:00,880 Speaker 4: I don't. 1518 01:17:01,400 --> 01:17:05,360 Speaker 2: All right, cowboys will be at the forty nine ers. 1519 01:17:06,320 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 2: When do we see this game? Do we see it 1520 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:10,360 Speaker 2: on a Sunday night. Do we see it on a 1521 01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:12,200 Speaker 2: Sunday afternoon? Do we see it on a Monday night? 1522 01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:16,000 Speaker 2: I get the sense that this Cowboys Niners matchup is 1523 01:17:16,040 --> 01:17:19,559 Speaker 2: a nice Week five like it like they don't want 1524 01:17:19,600 --> 01:17:21,320 Speaker 2: it too late in the season because they couldn't play 1525 01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:23,519 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. You want to, you know, like farther 1526 01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:25,639 Speaker 2: awaway from that, But they seemed to. I think last 1527 01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:28,400 Speaker 2: year they played around Week five Week six, where whether 1528 01:17:28,640 --> 01:17:30,600 Speaker 2: you know, it was a nice night in San Francisco 1529 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:33,080 Speaker 2: when they ended up playing, well, it was nice for 1530 01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:35,479 Speaker 2: the forty nine Ers because they kicked the crap out 1531 01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:41,000 Speaker 2: of Dallas, right, But what we're Cowboys Niners. I'm saying 1532 01:17:41,040 --> 01:17:43,479 Speaker 2: Week five Sunday night football. What do you guys think 1533 01:17:43,479 --> 01:17:45,720 Speaker 2: about that? Are you guys good with that? 1534 01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:46,400 Speaker 4: I'm good with that. 1535 01:17:46,600 --> 01:17:50,280 Speaker 3: It'll definitely be a Sunday not a Monday, because of 1536 01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:55,040 Speaker 3: the tradition, the classical forty nine Ers Cowboys RIVALI I 1537 01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:57,679 Speaker 3: think it'll be good for Sunday night, but I'd also 1538 01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:00,760 Speaker 3: see it being Sunday at at one as well, so 1539 01:18:00,880 --> 01:18:03,880 Speaker 3: it's one specific standard time, so I could see it 1540 01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:04,519 Speaker 3: there too. 1541 01:18:05,200 --> 01:18:10,680 Speaker 2: Or daylight. If we don't change our clocks just yet. 1542 01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:13,200 Speaker 2: I'm going with Week five seven at football. We'll check 1543 01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:16,040 Speaker 2: back next week on our on our on our matchups. 1544 01:18:16,280 --> 01:18:23,720 Speaker 2: All right, Falcons at Vikings, Kirks possible return to Minnesota. 1545 01:18:23,960 --> 01:18:26,400 Speaker 4: I'm already nervous.
