It 29 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: was a big thing. 30 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: Behind Buddy. 31 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 3: Crypt. 32 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 2: I think it was at the Forum, but the too long, 33 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 2: didn't read version is Kendrick. I mean. Bamani Jones did 34 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 2: a great recap of this. You know what, I'm gonna 35 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 2: do something. It's I don't even know if from a 36 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: technical standpoint, this is going to work. This might be 37 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 2: a disaster, but we're gonna try something. It's not gonna work. 38 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 2: I was gonna FaceTime Bamani and then try to hold 39 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 2: the phone up to the microphone so people could hear him. 40 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 2: If people want a good recap of it, check Bamani's 41 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 2: uh social media account. But Kendrick united Los Angeles, truly 42 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 2: united Los Angeles Bloods and Crips on stage together dancing 43 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 2: and you know what they were united in one caused 44 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 2: demons hating d yes that is buddy. He had Russell 45 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 2: Westbrook and demart De Rosen on stage dancing to not 46 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 2: like us. I mean Demarto Rosen played for the Raptors, 47 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 2: used to wear Ovo gear. I mean it was a 48 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 2: hell of an event. Bron was there, I mean it 49 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 2: was he didn't go on stage, but everybody else did. 50 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 2: And so again this is I can appreciate the music 51 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 2: and the moment, but also have the self awareness to 52 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: know you're not coming to me for you know, the 53 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 2: analysis of what that means and what that was. But 54 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 2: it was something else, man, And I didn't know it 55 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 2: was going because the whole it was I was out 56 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 2: and not, you know, trying to be present and in 57 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 2: the moment, and so I wasn't on my phone at all. 58 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: And then I got home around one last night after 59 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 2: we shut down the store, got done with everything, and 60 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 2: I'm scrolling Twitter. I'm like, oh boy, we missed quite 61 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 2: the event on the other side of the country. But 62 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 2: so it really seemed like a really cool Juneteenth. And 63 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 2: I think it was I think it was Wesley Lowry 64 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: that made this point. I'm not sure, but the Kendrick 65 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 2: thing was so I mean, it's so seismic. And because 66 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 2: Juneteenth is a newly recognized federal holiday, this is Lowry's 67 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 2: point that there isn't like, like on the fourth of 68 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 2: July you set off fireworks, right like we know on 69 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: Thanksgiving we watch football in eat turkey. It's long established 70 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 2: traditions June teenth being a day people even though people 71 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 2: have celebrated for a long time being a day people 72 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 2: have off work and all of it, there's not yet 73 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 2: an established precedent of oh, so like what is the 74 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 2: go to celebration? And Lowry's point was, did Kendrick just 75 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 2: set it as it's a concert live music day today 76 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: where people listen to music and celebrate that way, And 77 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 2: he might have. It might have been a legitimately a 78 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 2: legitimate cultural touchstone. And the fact that it was, you know, 79 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 2: the crescendo of it was this, these folks hating Drake 80 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 2: is really a really hard for a remarkable thing. And 81 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: so so all of that is so that was the night. 82 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 2: One other note that I need to tell you. So 83 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: this is sorry if you guys heard, I'm gonna again. 84 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 2: Sports are kind of you know, we're in the slow zone. 85 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 2: So I don't mind starting the show like this. Sorry 86 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 2: for the ding you just heard. I'm glad I can 87 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 2: tell them this. It's a fun time in a parent's 88 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 2: life when he has a kid old enough that he 89 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 2: can say these things too about his siblings. I I 90 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 2: just got a text, and that's what you guys heard, 91 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 2: the ding. And the text was from you're older, not 92 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: older than you, but your oldest sister. And it was 93 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 2: just a screenshot of an email. And parents with teenage 94 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: kids can relate the most every time I get an 95 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 2: contextless like you need to look at this email. I 96 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 2: just got text. My heart just drops, like, oh Jesus, 97 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: like what is this? Like you owe? Like is this 98 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 2: like the you you owe six thousand dollars for damage 99 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 2: to a dorm? Is this you know what I mean? Like, oh, 100 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 2: actually you you missed a midterm? It just it and 101 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 2: so I just glanced at It's actually fine, It's it's 102 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 2: a positive email, but there is an element of like, 103 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 2: oh no, it's the same feeling you get if you 104 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 2: have teenage kids that text all the time and never 105 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 2: call when they When you see that they are the 106 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 2: one calling you, you want to be excited about it, 107 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 2: but you're actually terrified, Like oh Jesus, you're just like gripping. 108 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: You're like, all right, I hope this is Hey, how's 109 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 2: it going? And I still I'm gonna. I'm gonna I 110 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 2: I will without giving details. And even though I Demonse 111 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 2: turns twenty six in three weeks, hasn't been in any 112 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 2: what I would call real trouble in four years. It's 113 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 2: been a long time, three years, like you know what 114 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: I mean, and real trouble is too extreme, but any 115 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 2: like where it's like, oh man, this is a stressful, 116 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: crummy situation. He's never actually been in any real trouble 117 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: in his whole life. And even yesterday Demonse called me 118 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 2: with great news, but I misheard the word conversation as confrontation. 119 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 2: I was like, oh Jesus, because I knew the person's abodes. 120 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 2: And the answer was, I had an amazing conversation with 121 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 2: so and so today. And I heard I had an 122 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: amazing confrontation with so and so. I'm like, Jesus, what happened? So, yeah, 123 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 2: that's maybe that's no, it's not you. It's just the 124 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 2: neuroses of being a parent. Also, one other thing before 125 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:57,080 Speaker 2: we get to the actual show. If you subscribe to 126 00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 2: the print edition of arguably the greatest magazine cultural magazine 127 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 2: that's ever existed, The New Yorker, the one that, amazingly 128 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 2: this is an unbelievable turn of events. On the cover 129 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 2: has a white dad wearing an Olivia Rodrigo t shirt, 130 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:29,360 Speaker 2: vaping black mom, and a tennish year old daughter walking 131 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 2: in front of them, annoyed with her parents. That's the 132 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 2: cover of the prededition of this week's New Yorker. If 133 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 2: you have it, go to page seven and look on 134 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 2: the right hand column in the three things I'm interested 135 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: in this week, and number two is the author's favorite 136 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 2: television show. First things first, it is so dope. He 137 00:08:55,640 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 2: calls it like Letterman for sports fans. Now, I was 138 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 2: aware that this existed on the New Yorker website like 139 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 2: that it last weeks. It was sent to me and 140 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 2: then I saw the who wrote it, and I was 141 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 2: taken aback, and I tweeted about it. But because I'm old. 142 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 2: It's one thing to have something be on the website. 143 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 2: It's another thing to have it in the print edition 144 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 2: of the magazine, not of the New Yorker magazine. And 145 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 2: the fact that the cover might as well have been me, 146 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 2: your mom, and Deanna. I don't have an Olivia Rodrigo 147 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 2: T shirt, but if I did, I would wear it. 148 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 2: Is pretty, is pretty unbelievable. It might be the greatest 149 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 2: press the television show's ever gotten. To get blurbed in 150 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 2: the New Yorker is unfathomable, and shout out to the author. 151 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,440 Speaker 2: And it's really cool. And if you subscribe to New 152 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 2: Yorker again, page seven, right hand column. Okay, I said 153 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 2: we were gonna go fast today. We have now gone 154 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 2: ten minutes and the show hasn't really even started. 155 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 3: My apologies anything we've ever gone before. 156 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: I know, and I usually make fun of podcasts for 157 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 2: doing that exact thing where it's like it, but it 158 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 2: is that time, and I think all of that, and 159 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 2: I do think the Kendrick thing was the zeitgeist, and 160 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 2: I think people relate to the parenting. And if I'm 161 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 2: in the New Yorker, I'm gonna talk about it all right, 162 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 2: Here's what missed the cut. Travis Kelcey on the Super 163 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 2: Bowl Ring Typo. He says he doesn't give ah and 164 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 2: he shouldn't. Of all the things that could be a typo, 165 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 2: this is the least meaningful. If they've gotten the score 166 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 2: of one of the games wrong, that's unfortunate. If they 167 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 2: had gotten the team they played wrong, that's almost we 168 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 2: have to remake the ring. But calling the Dolphins the 169 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,520 Speaker 2: seventh seed when they were the sixth seed doesn't matter. 170 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 2: Pascal Siakam's gonna sign a Max and Andy and Willie Mays. 171 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: I believe the great baseball player to ever live passed 172 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 2: away at ninety three. We I don't like to do 173 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 2: brief obituaries, and but there's not a lot of sports 174 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 2: memorabilia that I still have. But and demon'sa you might 175 00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 2: not even realize it's Willie Mays, but in my office, 176 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 2: think about when you were sitting in my office watching football. 177 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 2: On the wall where the door is the exactly the 178 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 2: box that has the baseball in it. Yes, is a 179 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,199 Speaker 2: picture of Willie Mays making the most famous catching baseball 180 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 2: history and assigned Willy Mays Baseball. I've had that for 181 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: on it close to thirty years now. The greatest aside 182 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 2: from Barry Bond, who has the weird kind of I 183 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 2: don't know if asterisk but cloud hanging over him. The 184 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 2: greatest baseball player of my lifetime all around, hitting, fielding, 185 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 2: all around was King Griffy Due, and Willy Mays was, 186 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 2: quite literally in a lot of statistical categories, twice the player, 187 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 2: and Griffy's one of the fifteen greatest players ever. It's 188 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 2: unfathomable what a great player he was. And as a 189 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 2: reminder that history is what we are currently living, we 190 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 2: try to pretend it was a long time ago. Willy Mays, 191 00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 2: who passed away two days ago. Remember a couple weeks 192 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 2: ago when Major League Baseball added the Negro league stats 193 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 2: to the official Major League Baseball stats, Willy Mays, who 194 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 2: has passed away at ninety three two days ago, career 195 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 2: hit number went up by eight because he played in 196 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 2: the Negro leagues. And then he played twenty four years 197 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 2: in professional baseball with a year and a half stolen 198 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 2: from him because he was in the Korean War. An unbelievable, 199 00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 2: legendary player and one of the most universally popular players 200 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 2: of all time. And all right, so, demonse, let's get 201 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,559 Speaker 2: to the actual show and talk to Jason Tatum. 202 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, so yes, shay On your show, you talked about 203 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 4: the different levels that Tatum could reach, and the Twitter 204 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 4: aggregators picked that and ran with it. So here's your 205 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 4: chance to set the record straight. Where do you think 206 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 4: that Tatum's ceiling is? 207 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 2: So I I think his ceiling is probably I think 208 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 2: he's very close to his ceiling. I disagree with Bill 209 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 2: Simmons that there's another level he's going to get to. 210 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 2: I understand he's just twenty six, but he's a weird 211 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 2: twenty six because he's twenty six with one hundred and 212 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 2: ten playoff games under his belt, so he's played so 213 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 2: much in high levered spots. I like Shay is Shay 214 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 2: is only a few months younger than Tatum. I think 215 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 2: it's more realistic to believe Shay has more levels because 216 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: Shay just hasn't been in these types of spots as all. 217 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 2: And maybe I'm wrong about that, but my frustration is 218 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 2: twofold one is I'm gonna read you a tweet. Someone 219 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 2: clipped what Bruce said Jason Tatum about his contract. Jason 220 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 2: Tatum deserves the money, no question, but yes he has 221 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 2: something to prove. Can he play his best in the finals? 222 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 2: Because the question we were asked was does Jason Tatum 223 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 2: have anything more to prove? And this person quote tweeted 224 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: it saying the fing goalpost moving is hilarious and then 225 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 2: quotes Kobe Bryant stats over his first two finals, which 226 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 2: is a little unfair to Kobe because Kobe was not 227 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 2: good at all in his first finals and then very 228 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 2: good in his second finals. But that then made the 229 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 2: overall numbers just look mediocre. But it wasn't like he was. 230 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 2: He was bad in won and then quite good in 231 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 2: the next one. The overall numbers look mediocre. Then they 232 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 2: show Lebron's first two finals finals. Lebron wasn't good in 233 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 2: either one of those, and then Tatum's that tweet proves 234 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 2: my point or Bru's point. You know what, Lebron James 235 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 2: had to prove after his first two finals that he 236 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 2: could play well in the finals. Did he have something 237 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 2: less to prove? Absolutely? Now Lebron didn't have a championship, 238 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 2: and Tatum does. Kobe had two. With that point, Tatum 239 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 2: has won. But it's not people. This would be goalpost moving. Okay, 240 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 2: if folks wouldn't give Jason, if folks were like, you 241 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 2: know what, I'm not impressed by Jason Tatum. If folks said, 242 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 2: let me rephrase it. If folks going into it said, 243 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 2: like I did, I question whether or not you can 244 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 2: win the championship with Jason Tatum as your best player. 245 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 2: And then the Celtics win the championship with Jason Tatum 246 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 2: as one A, one B but their best player over 247 00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 2: the course of the year, even if he wasn't their 248 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 2: best player in the finals, but it was arguable at least, 249 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 2: And then they say, don't care that he did it, 250 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 2: he wasn't that good, and then take shots at him. 251 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 2: That's goal post moving. It is not goal post moving. 252 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 2: To say, okay, that level of the video game is completed, 253 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 2: how high can you rise? That to me is complimentary 254 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 2: me saying so I was asked, the thing that got 255 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 2: aggregated from me was I was asked, same question, was 256 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 2: Jason Tatum I have left to prove? And my answer was, well, 257 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 2: it depends on what he's trying to prove. And I 258 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 2: used wild as a career as an example, but I'll 259 00:16:53,920 --> 00:17:00,040 Speaker 2: use my own instead. If my goal professionally was I 260 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 2: want to one day host a national television show in 261 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 2: the sports room, then if you were like, hey, Nick, 262 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 2: what more do you have to prove. If that was 263 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 2: my peak goal, then the answer is nothing. I've proven it. 264 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,880 Speaker 2: If my goal was what it actually is to one 265 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: day be the biggest sports personality in America, then I 266 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 2: have a lot more to prove because I'm not there. 267 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 2: So the point that I made about Jason Tatum, what 268 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 2: more does he have to prove? It's actually a question 269 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 2: of what is he trying to prove. If his goal 270 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 2: was to be in the conversation as the best Celtic 271 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 2: since Larry Bird, then he doesn't have anything left to prove. 272 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 2: He is not only in that conversation. It's him or 273 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 2: Paul Pierce, and right now he is, to me trending 274 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 2: better than Pierce. Piers did win that Finals MVP, but 275 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 2: just like this one, it was very close to Pierce 276 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 2: never made first team All NBA. Tatum's done it three times. 277 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 2: So if Tatum's goal capped out at be a champion, 278 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 2: be the best Celtics since Paul Pierce, which you kind 279 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 2: of can't do one without the other, then he has 280 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 2: nothing left to prove. But if Tatum's goal is what 281 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: he has stated, to be the best player in the world, 282 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 2: or I'll take that down a degree legitimately in the 283 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 2: conversation for best player in the world, which he is 284 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 2: not currently, then he has a lot more to prove. 285 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 2: That's not unfair. That's not moving the goalposts. That is 286 00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 2: recognizing that the more you achieve unless you have reached satisfaction, 287 00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 2: so to speak. Like I'll give you an example. I 288 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 2: don't think Anthony Davis is trying to prove anything else. 289 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: I don't think Anthony Davis has a goal. Maybe I'm 290 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 2: being unfair and this will probably be clipped as well. 291 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 2: I would prefer it not, but I don't think Anthony 292 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 2: Davis is like obsessed with I want to be the 293 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 2: best player in the world. I think Anthony Davis came 294 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 2: to LA to prove I can be a part of 295 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 2: a championship team and I can play great basketball in 296 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 2: big games when I didn't have that opportunity in New Orleans, 297 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,479 Speaker 2: and he proved it. And now he is, now what 298 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:42,360 Speaker 2: does he have to prove? I think right now he's 299 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 2: trying to prove I can stay healthy, and he did 300 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 2: that this year. But I don't think he has I 301 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 2: don't think Anthony Davis is out there right now being 302 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 2: like I'm going to win MVPs. I don't think that. 303 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 2: So I think that so in a weird way, I 304 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 2: don't think he has more to prove because he's not 305 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 2: trying to prove anything else. Tatum is on the record 306 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 2: saying I think I can be the best player in 307 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 2: the world. If that truly is his goal, then he 308 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 2: has more to prove. He's proved a ton already. But 309 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 2: now it's that kind of final boss last step. So 310 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 2: demon's as a Tatum guy and as a Celtic guy 311 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,440 Speaker 2: when I explain and feel free to say you think 312 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 2: I'm full of s But do you think what I 313 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 2: said there a makes sense and be as fair or 314 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 2: am I doing what the Internet's accusing me of doing, 315 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 2: which is moving the goalposts? 316 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 3: Well? I do think there is something off. 317 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 4: I get, Like, I get I get that Luca is 318 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 4: on that, but like you're saying that Tatum is not 319 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 4: even in the talks of being the best player in 320 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 4: the world right now, but like Luca was going to 321 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 4: be crowned the best player if he won that finals. 322 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 3: I get, because like he didn't have help. 323 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 4: I feel like it still sounds a little weird, but uh, 324 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 4: but yeah, I mean I don't I think I think 325 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 4: it is fair Tatum does have. 326 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:56,920 Speaker 3: More to prove. 327 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 4: He didn't perform in the finals to the level that 328 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 4: you will probably I thought he should have. 329 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 3: I guess thought he would have. But yeah, I don't 330 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 3: think it's. 331 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,880 Speaker 2: A It's like so all right, So let me address 332 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:13,119 Speaker 2: that in reverse order again that the finals thing, to 333 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: me is just objective guys who have been to the 334 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 2: finals and didn't play their best basketball. Gosh darn. Steph 335 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 2: Curry on pre twenty twenty two had to prove he 336 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 2: could play his best basketball in the finals. He did. 337 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 2: It was the only level left on the video game 338 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 2: for him. Could he be the best player on a 339 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 2: champion YEP in twenty fifteen. Could he play well in 340 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 2: the finals YEP did in twenty eighteen. Really well, I 341 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 2: should say there, But in twenty the reason steat that 342 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 2: championship in twenty twenty two was so important was not 343 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 2: only it was without KD, but it was we were 344 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: down two one backs against the wall. It was all 345 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,639 Speaker 2: on me. I dropped forty on Boston one Finals MVP, 346 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 2: and yet so he even Steph had something left to prove. 347 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 2: Lebron when he left Miami as a four time MVP 348 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 2: two time champion, five finals appearances, had something left to prove? 349 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 2: Can I win without this the Heatles super Team pat 350 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 2: Riley right, So there was something left. Kobe was a 351 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 2: three time champion and league MVP and was still trying 352 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 2: to prove he could win without Shaquille O'Neill like, and 353 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 2: then he did it there there, So that is not 354 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 2: my frustration. Is it's not an insult, it's a compliment. 355 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 2: If it is a compliment to say you are, you know, 356 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 2: a consensus top ten player, you were just the throughout 357 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 2: the course of the season, the best player throughout the 358 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 2: course of the playoffs, the best or the second best 359 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 2: player on the champions and there's still more to do. 360 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 2: That's a compliment. Now if it comes with while trying 361 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 2: to rip the guy, then it's not. But that's not 362 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:13,919 Speaker 2: what I've been doing. The Luca thing is just to 363 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:19,360 Speaker 2: me an objective reality of the fact. And I shouldn't 364 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 2: say objective reality. I believe, and I think I have 365 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 2: a lot of reason to believe that Luca is a 366 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 2: better player than Jason Tatum, even though Jason Tatum's team 367 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 2: just beat Luca's team. Now, that might be if you 368 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 2: wanted to argue the other side of it, I think 369 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 2: what you would have needed was in these finals for 370 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 2: Tatum to put up Luca's stat line, or at the 371 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 2: very least Luca to put up tatum stat line. If 372 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 2: Luca in these finals had played really poorly, then it's 373 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 2: a and Tatum had played really well, then it's even 374 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 2: though it's a team sport, it's a harder argument to make. 375 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 2: And so I just I right now, and this is 376 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 2: the question that I had right now. To me, it 377 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 2: is a pretty clear top three players in the league. 378 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 2: Yo Get's, Luca and Yannis. It's not clear how to 379 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 2: order those three. That's how I would order them yo 380 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,880 Speaker 2: Ki's Luca Yannis. But if someone wants say they want 381 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: Giannis over Luca, it's pretty hard right now to not 382 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 2: have Jokis number one. But you can argue about it. 383 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 2: That next group. There's Tatum, there's Shay, there's Anthony Edwards. 384 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 2: I don't really know what we do with EMBIID. It's 385 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 2: like embiid's got MVPs and runner ups and but no 386 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 2: good playoff runs and always gets you know, so, uh, 387 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 2: I think an honest question and a tough question, is 388 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 2: what's more likely that Tatum jumps into that next group, 389 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 2: or shae An Aunt jump past Tatum. I think that, 390 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 2: like I think that is, I don't know which direction 391 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 2: that's going to go. 392 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 4: I guess think it's less likely because I think Boston 393 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 4: is more likely to end up back in the finals. 394 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 3: I think they'll have that chance. I think that. 395 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 4: I mean, I guess Boston'd be in the finals against 396 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 4: those teams. 397 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 3: But no, that's fair. 398 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 4: I think Taylor's gonna have a lot more time to 399 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 4: prove himself and beat that extra game level that you're 400 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 4: talking about. 401 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 2: Well, so there is a there is another element, which 402 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 2: is as far as not getting complacent but getting the 403 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 2: monkey off your back, there is an element of this 404 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 2: being the perfect result for Tatum, meaning he no longer 405 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 2: has the pressure of can you win with this guy 406 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,439 Speaker 2: at the highest level, no one can ever make the 407 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 2: argument again, Okay, you're capped out, you can't win a 408 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 2: championship if he's your best player, because they literally just 409 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 2: won the championship, right, But it also has a real 410 00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 2: legitimate motivating factor to try to get a touch better, 411 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 2: which is, I didn't win the finals, MVP, and I 412 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 2: didn't play my best basketball in the finals, So maybe 413 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 2: they're you know, as far as Tatum's career trajectory, maybe 414 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 2: this is the best case scenario where it let's say 415 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 2: he had played great in the finals and they won 416 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 2: the Tier wins Finals MVP. I don't think he would, 417 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 2: but maybe you take your foot off the gas a bit, 418 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,640 Speaker 2: and if they lose the finals because he plays poorly, 419 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 2: maybe that gets in your head and you know it 420 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 2: in the next time you're a big moments. 421 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 4: Also, I want to like, I feel like I've said 422 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 4: this before, but at the same time, like we've obviously 423 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 4: like this is the finals, I get it, but we've 424 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 4: we've seen Tatum put up numbers when it was necessary, 425 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 4: like in the times where it was called for. He's 426 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 4: he's had fifty points against the Bucks in a game seven, 427 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 4: Like he does it when he when he needs to. 428 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 4: He never at any point, I don't he didn't need 429 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 4: to be thirty five and eight or whatever you want 430 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:07,120 Speaker 4: to call it, like it's it's it was Finn. That's 431 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 4: sounds part of it, like they'll never really test it. 432 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 2: So okay, so you make two good points I'm gonna 433 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,239 Speaker 2: make I'm gonna add one little yeah butt to it. 434 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,919 Speaker 2: Down three to two to Milwaukee, Yanni's playing out of 435 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 2: his mind. Tatum drops forty six points on the road, 436 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 2: keep the season alive. They then win the series in seven. 437 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 2: That's a real moment, the defending champs on the road, 438 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 2: and in that game, Tatum outplayed Giannis. And it wasn't 439 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 2: because Gianna's played poorly. The game you're referring to Game 440 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 2: seven last year against Philly, Tatum drops fifty points. Right, 441 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 2: those things happened. So there's so and those are You 442 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 2: could argue that both of those games, because they were 443 00:27:56,280 --> 00:28:00,400 Speaker 2: elimination games, were in a weird way higher pressure than 444 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,199 Speaker 2: any of these finals games because that they were in 445 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 2: control from start to finish of the series. Right, So 446 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 2: that's fair the one. Yeah, but I'm gonna add when 447 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 2: people are like, well they he you're asking him to 448 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 2: put up numbers when maybe that wasn't you know, what 449 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 2: the team needed or what was best for the team, 450 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 2: that rings a touch hollow because he did take shots 451 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,159 Speaker 2: than Yeah, exactly, it wasn't a I'm gonna you know, 452 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 2: and so it was he was trying to score. He 453 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 2: just his shot was off, you know what I mean, 454 00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 2: Like the there's just that that is just what it was. 455 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 2: And by the way his shot was off. It was 456 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 2: weird this whole playoffs. Somebody, uh Second Spectrum stats, they 457 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 2: tweeted Second Spectrum didn't tweet it, but somebody tweeted this 458 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 2: yesterday that Yannis this year on jumpers was twenty nine 459 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: point eight percent and Tatum in the playoffs was twenty 460 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:04,959 Speaker 2: nine point nine percent. His jumper just wasn't falling, like 461 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 2: throughout the playoffs's jumper wasn't falling. It was, and so 462 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,120 Speaker 2: that might just be a simple thing like, ah, his 463 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 2: jumper just wasn't falling. So I think, here is my 464 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 2: frustration with the Internet, and this I just I guess 465 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 2: I'm chemically unable to do a quick show. I don't 466 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 2: know what's wrong with the I think that these are smart, 467 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:33,920 Speaker 2: interesting sports conversations, and I'm not acting like I'm not 468 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 2: someone that can go out there and give a take 469 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 2: as hot as the next guy. But I get frustrated 470 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 2: when what I think is a smart, nuanced conversation is 471 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 2: being packaged as a hot take. I like a hot take. 472 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 2: I think the I think hot takes have been disrespected 473 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 2: and unfairly maligned. I think hot takes are great for 474 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:04,040 Speaker 2: the sports media culture. Actually not bad, but I don't 475 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,479 Speaker 2: like I don't like the cross categorization. You know what 476 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 2: I mean and where and And I also get frustrated 477 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 2: by folks who it's a two minute Twitter clip and 478 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 2: they get so angry about it without I'm not asking 479 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 2: you to go back and watch the little segment, but 480 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 2: so many people clearly are not even watching the clip. 481 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 2: They're just seeing the alleged quote from it and responding 482 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 2: to it. Okay, well we're thirty minutes in and we've 483 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 2: done one topic. Next. 484 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, So in a mediocre NBA draft, there's talks 485 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 4: that Bronni could go high to, you know, early to 486 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 4: mid first round. Rich Paul came out and staid that 487 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 4: Bronni and Lebron are not a package deal, and the 488 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 4: Lebron won't take a small max or a small amount 489 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 4: of money to play with Bronnie. 490 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, won't take miss some won't take them minut him. Yeah, 491 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 3: I'm sorry. 492 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 4: So should at random team just draft Bronnie early and 493 00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 4: call Bron's bluff. 494 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 2: I don't so that this was a real thought that 495 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: I had a couple of years ago that this could happen. 496 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 2: If Lebron was like I'm signing with wherever whoever drafts Bronni. 497 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 2: But that's not going it is. I think it's clear 498 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 2: enough right now that Bronni it is not super important 499 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 2: to Bronni that he and bron play together that if 500 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 2: a team were to use a first round pick on Bronnie, 501 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 2: lebron would just be like, all right, you know what 502 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 2: I mean, that's go do it. And I think Rich 503 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 2: Paul has made that pretty clear, and so I I 504 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 2: don't think that is on the list of realistic outcomes. 505 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 2: I do think it makes all of a sudden the 506 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 2: second round of this year's draft compelling because it's going 507 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 2: the storyline, right or wrong, is going to be about Bronni. 508 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 2: Go ahead, ask the follow ups. 509 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 4: Uh yeah, So if the Lakers signed the le Bron's 510 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 4: guy jj A and draft his son, wouldn't it be 511 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 4: pretty shady for the Goat to leave them? 512 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 2: All right? So I don't know. Listen, he's a free 513 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 2: agent and to do what he wants. Nobody thinks he's 514 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 2: leaving the Lakers, even though I hope he leaves the Lakers. 515 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 2: What I will tell you is, I Demonse, I love 516 00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 2: doing this podcast with you, but I would not be 517 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 2: happy if they were like, Hey, guess who's the new 518 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 2: showrunner of First Things First Nick's podcast partner Demonse, I'd 519 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 2: be like, you know what, I don't know if that's 520 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 2: the vision we need for this show. I don't know 521 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 2: that he is necessarily up to the job. The idea 522 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 2: that because Lebron enjoys podcasting with JJ, that he definitively 523 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 2: wants JJ to be as head coach. I don't have 524 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 2: any evidence of that. I do know that when the 525 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: Lakers were pursuing Dan Hurley, Lebron reached out to Dan 526 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 2: and they were talking. I do know Lebron was all 527 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 2: in on the idea of Dan Hurley coaching the Lakers. 528 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 2: I shouldn't say all in, but excited about the idea 529 00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 2: of Dan Hurley coaching the Lakers. And the Lakers front 530 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,760 Speaker 2: office is gonna do Lakers front office things. All right, 531 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 2: Let's talk Bronnie real quick, go. 532 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 3: Ahead, all right? 533 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, So the Lakers and the Suns have shown the 534 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 4: most interest in Bronnie, and Rich Paul is now saying 535 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 4: the Mavericks, Timberwolves, and the Raptors are also in on him. 536 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 4: Out of all these teams with ties with Bronnie, which 537 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 4: do you think would be the most likely to draft him. 538 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 4: Which do you think will be the best landing spot 539 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 4: for his development, and which would you think will be 540 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 4: the most fun. 541 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 2: I think the most fun would be the maps. I 542 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,960 Speaker 2: think that would be the most fun because I think 543 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 2: it would be really cool to see. And again, Bronnie's 544 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 2: gonna be a second round pick that's probably gonna spend 545 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 2: most of the year in the G League, right, But 546 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 2: I think it would be really cool and a nice 547 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 2: kind of final chapter to Kyrie getting to do the 548 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 2: mentorship teach you how to win stuff for Bronni that 549 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,959 Speaker 2: lebron tried to do for Kyrie that Kyrie pushed back 550 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 2: against at the end, because I think Kyrie, I want 551 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:26,800 Speaker 2: to say something about Kyrie here. I know it's supposed 552 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 2: to be about Bronni. Listen, He's probably gonna go to 553 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,839 Speaker 2: the Lakers at fifty five. It just seems like that's 554 00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:36,720 Speaker 2: what's gonna happen. And I don't think he is yet 555 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 2: a good enough prospect to where we should spend a 556 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 2: ton of time talking about the best thing for his development. 557 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 2: He is a wildly impressive young man. As someone who 558 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 2: has a daughter his exact age, he is the way 559 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 2: he has handled all of this, this level of fame, 560 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 2: this level of money, and I don't just mean his 561 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 2: dad's money, I mean now his own money, because he's 562 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 2: got the Caleb Williams level in il deal at you, like, 563 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 2: his own money as an adult that he can do 564 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:12,399 Speaker 2: anything with. Like, I don't think it is demons. You're 565 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,240 Speaker 2: gonna laugh here and you're gonna say I'm being unfair. 566 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 2: I don't think it is ridiculous to say he has, 567 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 2: in three months out of college, shown more maturity than 568 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 2: I've seen from LaMelo Ball at any moment of his career. 569 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 2: Like I am the I knew you so right, I 570 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 2: knew you were gonna say that. I just can't. I 571 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 2: can't watch any more of these videos Lamello peeling. Somebody 572 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 2: tweeted once LaMelo acts like a twelve year old who 573 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,879 Speaker 2: got one hundred million dollars, and it's like, yeah, that's 574 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 2: exactly right. You guy's got a go karts on his roof. 575 00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 2: He's got every like every car you would see. I 576 00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 2: think Lamello picked his vehicles by the cars that are 577 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,399 Speaker 2: available in Grand Theft Auto. It's like, oh that one, 578 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 2: I want that one, and then that one and then 579 00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 2: that one. So again, maybe I'm being unfair, just I 580 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,319 Speaker 2: think I am impressed by Bronnie the young man. And 581 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 2: I also think that we people need to remember when 582 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 2: you look at his college stats, that the guy had 583 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 2: cardiac arrest and wasn't able to train for months, and 584 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 2: then the whole thing was thrown off. And so I 585 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 2: think he's better than his college stats suggest, but it does. 586 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:39,360 Speaker 2: But he's six to two. So that's the biggest concern 587 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,840 Speaker 2: I have with Bronnie is his height. And so, but 588 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 2: to go back to the Kyrie thing, I was trying 589 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 2: to say, and then we're not going to do the 590 00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 2: quarterback contracts thing because I just don't know how to 591 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 2: stay on the time when Kyrie was playing great basketball 592 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 2: a large part and you'll like this, de Monsa, because 593 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 2: you all always thought I was too hard on Kyrie. 594 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 2: When Kyrie was playing really good basketball, maybe not great, 595 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 2: but really good basketball. When he was with Brooklyn, a 596 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 2: large part of the conversation around him was negative, non 597 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 2: basketball related right that the off the court stuff, no 598 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 2: matter how well he played, the off the court stuff 599 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,879 Speaker 2: pulled down the discussion around him. I believe fairly some 600 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 2: people believe unfairly but it is what it is. What 601 00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,360 Speaker 2: is only fair is if that can work in the 602 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 2: other direction as well. Kyrie just had a really rough finals, 603 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:46,680 Speaker 2: and the off the court stuff was so mature and 604 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 2: so self aware and showed a real leadership that it 605 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 2: should pull up the conversation a bit as well. If 606 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 2: when he was playing excellent, the off the court nonsense 607 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,239 Speaker 2: could pull down how we looked at him. Then when 608 00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 2: he's when he struggled in the finals, which he just did. 609 00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,919 Speaker 2: He had one excellent game, one okay game in three 610 00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 2: really tough games, but he handled it all. And if 611 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 2: some of the quotes, if you read them about what 612 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,240 Speaker 2: he was saying about Boston during the series, they read weird. 613 00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 2: But if you watched the press conference, it was so 614 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 2: thoughtful and mature and all of it. Credit must be given. 615 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 2: And so to a point to where now I the 616 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,879 Speaker 2: reason I'm saying Dallas for Bronni is because I think 617 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 2: Kyrie would be a cool, you know, uncle figure with 618 00:38:38,640 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 2: Bronni is like, hey, here's how to go about it, Like, 619 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 2: you know, don't have your dad telling you what to do, 620 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 2: but have a guy you've known since you were a 621 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 2: little kid, who Now, I think that would be to me, 622 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,560 Speaker 2: that would be the coolest thing. And obviously Nico Harrison, 623 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 2: who runs the team, has a great relationship with the family. 624 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 2: All Right, I we do not have a show on 625 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,520 Speaker 2: two day because I'm gonna be in Vegas for the 626 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 2: World Series of Poker. We discuss that and play Nick 627 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 2: Stramas next. What's Right? All right, welcome back in What's 628 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 2: Right with Nick? Right real quick, before we get to 629 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 2: the poker stuff. I've talked a lot about how I think. 630 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 2: Have I talked to Monday on this pod about the 631 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 2: Twitter monetization and the money you get I think the 632 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:36,879 Speaker 2: bit yes, okay, that's what I thought. So that has 633 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 2: created a lot of oh yeah, because we talked about 634 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,120 Speaker 2: the fake videos of like look this racist ash on 635 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 2: an airplane and it's like those are bad. Those are 636 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:52,240 Speaker 2: literally just that's a skit, and the yeah, like right exactly. 637 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 2: There is a harmless version of that same grift, and 638 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 2: that is is the anonymous football and basketball aggregator accounts 639 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 2: who put out intentionally awful takes just to get dunked 640 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:19,680 Speaker 2: on for the interaction so mL for underscore mL Football, 641 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 2: which has, let me check, two hundred thousand followers. Okay, 642 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,359 Speaker 2: that's fine. I don't care. Just tweeted this out all 643 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 2: Caps Hall of Famer vikings dB. Harrison Smith is one 644 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:40,360 Speaker 2: of the greatest safeties of all time and a surefire 645 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 2: Hall of Famer. And it's just a totally intentionally wrong take, 646 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 2: so people will dunk on it to make money. It 647 00:40:54,560 --> 00:41:00,160 Speaker 2: is such a harmless grift. Now it does make the 648 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:03,360 Speaker 2: Twitter less usable because so many people are onto the 649 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 2: same grift.

For 656 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 2: the algorithm. The thing people love more than anything on 657 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 2: these is to pick a mediocre player who's hitting free 658 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 2: agency and call it a sweepstakes, just so that people 659 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 2: dunk on it.

It's like, lady, 677 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 2: get out of here. I know, I know a Southern 678 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,160 Speaker 2: sorority racist died in the wall when I see one, 679 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,879 Speaker 2: and you're not her. You might be friends with them, 680 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 2: but you don't have it. You're you're you don't have 681 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 2: it coursing through your veins the way you need. But 682 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,280 Speaker 2: she thinks she's gonna I think she thinks she's gonna 683 00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:33,759 Speaker 2: get a job. Uh you know, it's like Whitlock's co 684 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 2: host or something like. She is really trying to I 685 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 2: just made that up. The I mean, I think she 686 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:46,239 Speaker 2: thinks it's gonna be a career and instead it's just 687 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:52,279 Speaker 2: going to be oh you remember that girl and briefly 688 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 2: like But so it's all right, it's all fruit of 689 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 2: the same poisonous tree. All right, let's talk poker, go ahead. 690 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 4: All right, So you are heading back to the World 691 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 4: Series of Poker next week, So that means that we 692 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:06,799 Speaker 4: won't have a pod and you'll get to. 693 00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 3: Play a poker. 694 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 4: So, without giving away too much of your strategy, what 695 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:11,920 Speaker 4: is what's your playing for this time? 696 00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 3: Are you going to do anything differently? 697 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 2: Well, so I'm gonna play. So I fly to Vegas 698 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 2: Friday night, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. There are three day ones 699 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,759 Speaker 2: of the Millionaire Maker Tournament. It's fifteen hundred dollars buy in. 700 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,840 Speaker 2: You can buy in a second time if you bust 701 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 2: out on any individual flight of day one, and then 702 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:41,080 Speaker 2: Day two is Monday three, Tuesday four, Wednesday. It would 703 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,680 Speaker 2: be a very long tournament. If I were at a 704 00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 2: final table at that's Thursday, in which case I'm not 705 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 2: doing the pod and I'm not doing the TV show. 706 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,760 Speaker 2: But that means I've already locked up like a couple 707 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,799 Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars. If I make the final table of this, 708 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:59,240 Speaker 2: what will be a massive, like probably five six thousand 709 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,800 Speaker 2: person tournament. So that'd be one of those good problems. 710 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:07,040 Speaker 2: So I have a pretty I don't have like a 711 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,280 Speaker 2: unique strategy. It's a tournament poker is different than cash 712 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 2: game poker. But what I will say is, like I 713 00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 2: think most people, the unique thing about tournaments where there's 714 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 2: multiple day ones and there's a rebuy is if you 715 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 2: have the money to afford multiple entries, you're incentivized to 716 00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 2: play very aggressive on your first buy in of the 717 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:42,640 Speaker 2: day because if you bust out, you can buy in again, 718 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,839 Speaker 2: and if you don't, then you can create a big 719 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:49,839 Speaker 2: chip stack and kind of leverage people. I So here 720 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:51,840 Speaker 2: is what I think I'm going to do and the 721 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:53,840 Speaker 2: reason I want. And then if I don't do well 722 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 2: on Saturday and Sunday of that, there's another tournament. There's 723 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 2: a three thousand dollars no limit tournament that I might 724 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 2: play on one or I might do what I really 725 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,040 Speaker 2: want to do, which I think there's a twenty five 726 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 2: hundred dollars mixed game tournament where it's a round of 727 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 2: Omaha eight or better and stud eight or better, and 728 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,640 Speaker 2: it'll be me and a bunch of old guys, mostly 729 00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:15,920 Speaker 2: old guys because that's more old people play those games. 730 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:18,440 Speaker 2: But I love that game. I play that. There's that 731 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 2: exact game exists at parks and right outside Philly, and 732 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,840 Speaker 2: I play it. So I'm gonna do that. I have 733 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 2: a set goal that I want to play craft with 734 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 2: my buddy Nick Shulman. I also probably will see how 735 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,839 Speaker 2: muth he just came in fourth. He should have won 736 00:46:34,880 --> 00:46:37,279 Speaker 2: this tournament. He should have got Embracelet eighteen. The other day 737 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 2: he came in fourth. I was up till two in 738 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 2: the morning while sweating him. And I also should hopefully 739 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,200 Speaker 2: be a part, if you're a poker Go subscriber, be 740 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,880 Speaker 2: a part of some of the broadcasts of one of 741 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:54,440 Speaker 2: the tournaments when I'm not playing. It also demands a 742 00:46:54,800 --> 00:47:00,120 Speaker 2: is getting to Vegas on Friday night and planning to 743 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:06,280 Speaker 2: leave on Wednesday is too long in Vegas. Objectively speaking, 744 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 2: it's too long to be in Vegas. And so I am, 745 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 2: I am going to have to I. When I let me, 746 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:20,439 Speaker 2: I'll tell you something funny that you'll laugh about.

But Joe Black uh is out there all 753 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:49,279 Speaker 2: World Series playing in these tournaments. And so when Joe 754 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 2: had been trying to get me to come out to 755 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,120 Speaker 2: play in some tournaments, and I looked at the TV 756 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 2: schedule and I was like, oh, if there's not game 757 00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:58,640 Speaker 2: seven of the finals were off TV Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday 758 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:00,239 Speaker 2: because the Euros are on FS one one. 759 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 3: Uh. 760 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 2: I was like, I could come out and I think 761 00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 2: your mom was coming.

And me alone in the area 770 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 2: for five days is not a recipe for financial success. 771 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:52,480 Speaker 2: I need to have the added barrier of embarrassment. 772 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,560 Speaker 3: Of buddy, you need more money. 773 00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 2: What do you? 774 00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:55,719 Speaker 3: What do you? 775 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:56,040 Speaker 2: Yeah? 776 00:48:56,120 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 3: What do you? 777 00:48:56,719 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 2: What do you?

I 781 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 2: don't gamble big enough dollars for it to be like 782 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,840 Speaker 2: problematic given the amount of dollars I have access to. Okay, 783 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:32,400 Speaker 2: but I do gamble. You know, a few thousand dollars 784 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,359 Speaker 2: here and there, right, But I'm not one of those people. 785 00:49:34,400 --> 00:49:36,799 Speaker 2: There are people who make the exact amount of money 786 00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:40,440 Speaker 2: I make that are playing ten thousand dollars hands of blackjack, 787 00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 2: and that can get I don't that can get away 788 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,680 Speaker 2: from you real fast, Like even if you have you know, 789 00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 2: I can't get away from you real fast to where 790 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 2: you're in. Like all of a sudden, I took out 791 00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 2: a marker from the Aria for eighty thousand dollars that 792 00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 2: I owe the like. That's I don't care how much 793 00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:57,759 Speaker 2: money you have. That's that can be a problem. I 794 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 2: don't gamble like that, but I do gamble in a 795 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 2: way that it's in play that whatever I had mentally 796 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 2: budgeted for these five days could be gone in the 797 00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:15,520 Speaker 2: first five hours. If I don't have some guardrails, I 798 00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:19,320 Speaker 2: can tilt it off in either direction. So your mom 799 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 2: has always been the guardrails for me since we've been together. 800 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:25,279 Speaker 2: But when I thought she wasn't coming, I had to 801 00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 2: ask my buddy if he would be willing to hold 802 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:29,920 Speaker 2: my money. I don't think he was comfortable with it, 803 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 2: and I was like, pal, you just have to happen. 804 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:35,399 Speaker 2: I don't think he loved the idea of it. All right, 805 00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:38,760 Speaker 2: I'll keep everyone updated on social media how I'm doing. 806 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 2: And if you're a Poker Go subscriber, you should be 807 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 2: able to hear me on some of the broadcasts. All right, 808 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:45,080 Speaker 2: let's do the game. 809 00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:48,839 Speaker 4: All right, it's time for Nixtra Damis.

Oh beautiful, Oh wise, Nixtra Damis the 812 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:57,239 Speaker 4: common folk are starting to doubt your prophetic powers after 813 00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:00,719 Speaker 4: you predicted a MAVs title by them that you were 814 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:05,320 Speaker 4: the soussayer sport and sway the non believers with that graphic. 815 00:51:05,840 --> 00:51:10,920 Speaker 4: Your astronomy talents have been compared to Galileo. Uh, Galileo, Galileo, 816 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,920 Speaker 4: he was nearly Galileo. Yeah, he was burned at the steak, 817 00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:18,239 Speaker 4: and you have burning hot jokes. Yeah, nearly nearly burned 818 00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:20,879 Speaker 4: at the steak. All right, you're an expert at you're 819 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 4: an expert at tracking star movement in the NBA off 820 00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 4: scene is here, Nick stredamis which star will be it 821 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:32,759 Speaker 4: will shift in the NBA skuys Jesus Christ, that's hard, Jesus. 822 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 2: There's a long one. That's all right. 823 00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 3: I read it like fifteen times. 824 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:44,719 Speaker 2: Oh, I know, that's okay. So the Calves in the 825 00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:51,200 Speaker 2: heat both have two stars ish, neither of whom I think. 826 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:54,040 Speaker 2: I think both teams the stars don't want to be 827 00:51:54,080 --> 00:52:00,239 Speaker 2: together anymore so. Donovan Mitchell or Darius Garland one of 828 00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:06,479 Speaker 2: them is on the move, I think, and Trey Young 829 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,239 Speaker 2: or de Jonte Murray one of them is on the move. 830 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 2: I think both of those duos are getting split up 831 00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:16,040 Speaker 2: this offseason. That's what I think, and I just so, 832 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 2: I'm not sure which, but I think both of those 833 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:20,480 Speaker 2: teams one of those guys is on the move. 834 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 4: Next, the ancient calendars dictate the NBA drafts first round 835 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 4: will have occurred by our next show. There is no 836 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,560 Speaker 4: clear star in the class, or is there? Nick sha Damis, 837 00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 4: look into the cosmos and find me one real star. 838 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:39,919 Speaker 2: I don't listen. I don't think there's a star. I don't. 839 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:43,440 Speaker 2: I can't do that, but I like, I know that 840 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:48,759 Speaker 2: people like Reed Shepherd, the Kentucky kid. His height scares me. 841 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 2: He's an unbelievable shooter and unbelievable shooter, but he's six 842 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:56,520 Speaker 2: to one, so that worries me. I like Dalton Connect 843 00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:00,360 Speaker 2: and almost as good shooter, the kid from Tennis, but 844 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,000 Speaker 2: he's six ' five. So I don't think you're gonna 845 00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 2: get you know, you might get a random, you know, 846 00:53:05,480 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 2: foreign star in this draft, but this is not a 847 00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:11,880 Speaker 2: top heavy draft at all. But I think Dalton Connect 848 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:14,839 Speaker 2: could be a rotation player on an excellent team. 849 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 4: Next, the tea leaves are saying that NBA coach and 850 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:22,319 Speaker 4: noted film critic Joe Missoula has gone from the hot 851 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:26,239 Speaker 4: seat to extension talks, but not so fast. Let's not 852 00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 4: forget the championship. Coaches don't last. Just ask Frank Vogel 853 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 4: Bud and Nick Nurse, Nick Sha Damis well, extending Joe 854 00:53:34,320 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 4: Mizzoula proved to be a mistake. 855 00:53:37,400 --> 00:53:39,879 Speaker 2: No, it won't be. I gotta give him credit. Man, 856 00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:44,319 Speaker 2: his team loves him. They were so dialed in defensively, 857 00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:49,840 Speaker 2: and as often happens in sports, all your idiosyncrasies and 858 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:52,719 Speaker 2: out of these become charming when you win. So now 859 00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:55,040 Speaker 2: all the weirdness about him is just like, oh, that's 860 00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,279 Speaker 2: what makes him great. And so no, I give the 861 00:53:57,280 --> 00:53:59,560 Speaker 2: guy credit. I was a critic of his I was 862 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:05,919 Speaker 2: skeptic of his. The that team was connected, dialed in great, defensively, 863 00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 2: took smart shots. So no, I think he's a good coach. 864 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,719 Speaker 2: I was wrong on Joe Missoula, and so I give 865 00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:15,520 Speaker 2: him a lot of credit, A lot of credit. 866 00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 4: All right, next, h nick Ster Damas, our show is 867 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:25,319 Speaker 4: abided by one immutable law, no baseball. But some have 868 00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:29,799 Speaker 4: observed hearsay in your recent interest in Kansas City Royals. Uh, 869 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 4: Knickster Damas, will Dick right uphold his own rules. 870 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 2: Well, the Royals are making it easier for me. Lose 871 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:40,479 Speaker 2: too straight to the damn Oakland A's. What are you doing? 872 00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:43,560 Speaker 2: I get it. You lose the series to the Yankees. Fine, 873 00:54:43,600 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 2: you lose the series to the Dodgers. Whatever, You're playing 874 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,239 Speaker 2: the two best teams in baseball. You lose too straight 875 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:52,120 Speaker 2: to the Oakland A's. They need to get it together. 876 00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 2: I'm very disappointed in the royals last two games, last one. 877 00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:59,080 Speaker 4: The next time we meet, the Stanley Cup Final will 878 00:54:59,080 --> 00:55:02,320 Speaker 4: be settled. At the start of the championship. I correctly 879 00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:06,560 Speaker 4: named one team, netting me half of the reward money. Uh, Nick, sure, damas, 880 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 4: When will Nick Wright send me my fifty bucks? 881 00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 3: How'd you guys know you didn't send it? 882 00:55:12,760 --> 00:55:14,839 Speaker 2: I mean they were right, though they actually were right 883 00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:19,120 Speaker 2: that I didn't send it. Uh, they're correct. I forgot 884 00:55:19,160 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 2: to do that. 885 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:21,280 Speaker 1: Uh. 886 00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:24,640 Speaker 2: What I should do is just overnight you those same 887 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,759 Speaker 2: exact five ten dollars bills you sent me. That's what 888 00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 2: I should do. That's that's what I should do. But 889 00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:35,759 Speaker 2: I would I wouldn't. You're right, I do know. I'm 890 00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:36,480 Speaker 2: being serious? 891 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:37,640 Speaker 3: All right? 892 00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 2: We have demanse, we have an unbelievable f one minute, 893 00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:50,279 Speaker 2: And by unbelievable, I mean it. My goddaughter Cec might 894 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:53,399 Speaker 2: take after me a bit in the inability to stay 895 00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:56,320 Speaker 2: on the clock. Because the f one minute this week 896 00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,680 Speaker 2: I think might be five minutes. So we have that. 897 00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:02,799 Speaker 2: Oh and sorry, I know you guys. There was one 898 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:03,760 Speaker 2: other hockey question. 899 00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:06,680 Speaker 4: Sorry, so did you did you catch that save by 900 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,719 Speaker 4: Matthew Kuldchuck and the uh yeah that did you? 901 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 3: Did you see any of that yesterday? 902 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:14,440 Speaker 2: I did. I actually was watching that game at a 903 00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:17,200 Speaker 2: poker game. I was at a poker game Tuesday and 904 00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:20,439 Speaker 2: the and the hockey game was on, and I did 905 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:22,920 Speaker 2: see that. What was unbelievable about this save was then 906 00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 2: they immediately scored anyway, but it was a hell of 907 00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:29,279 Speaker 2: a job. And Matthew kuld Chuck, I actually I have 908 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,720 Speaker 2: a little familiarity with him because when I was a kid. 909 00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 2: His dad, I hope it's his dad. Keith Kuldchuck was 910 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:38,399 Speaker 2: a big time hockey player. Someone who knows hockey, tell 911 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:41,239 Speaker 2: me is Matthew kuld Chuck and Keith Kachuck related? I 912 00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:43,120 Speaker 2: have to think they are all right? The F one 913 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:54,080 Speaker 2: minute next? What's right? Get the Pulitzer prize? Ready? Oh? 914 00:56:54,120 --> 00:57:01,520 Speaker 2: My goodness, Tom Haverstrow, Yeahoo's sports a six thousand word 915 00:57:01,840 --> 00:57:08,920 Speaker 2: opus with first hand video evidence of something we've all 916 00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:13,040 Speaker 2: always suspected. But Tom has blown the lid off it. 917 00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 2: Michael Jordan's nineteen eighty eight Defensive Player of the Year 918 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:27,000 Speaker 2: award fougayse fraudulent inflated stats. How about this from Haverstraw 919 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:32,880 Speaker 2: and Yeah who sports just dropped? So Michael Jordan recorded 920 00:57:32,920 --> 00:57:37,000 Speaker 2: the largest home road splits in Defensive Player of the 921 00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:40,440 Speaker 2: Year history. So what does that mean? So Michael Jordan 922 00:57:40,520 --> 00:57:42,800 Speaker 2: that year that he was chasing the Defensive Player of 923 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:47,120 Speaker 2: the Year award on the road when there was seemingly, 924 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:52,520 Speaker 2: you know, a neutral scorekeeper, he averaged three steals and 925 00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:56,040 Speaker 2: blocks a game or per thirty six minute stocks. But 926 00:57:56,200 --> 00:58:01,760 Speaker 2: at home those numbers jumped to five and a half. 927 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:03,959 Speaker 2: Now was he just better at home than on the road? 928 00:58:04,040 --> 00:58:05,640 Speaker 2: Is that common? I don't know. It's a difference of 929 00:58:05,680 --> 00:58:08,360 Speaker 2: one hundred and eighty two percent. Say it again to Monse. 930 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 3: How many asstoks was he getting? 931 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:12,720 Speaker 2: Oh? I don't know how many asstocs. But his just 932 00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 2: defensive Player of the Year, So it's just the stocks, 933 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:21,760 Speaker 2: just steals and blocks. Tom Aberstrow got full game footage. 934 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 2: How about this full game footage where he could watch 935 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 2: and track every single play of six Jordan home games 936 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:38,320 Speaker 2: in nineteen eighty eight the game film. In those six games, 937 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:45,919 Speaker 2: Michael Jordan had twelve steals the home box score did 938 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:49,920 Speaker 2: he have? How many extra steals could they have given him? Two? Three? 939 00:58:50,320 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 2: He had twelve the box score twenty eight. There was 940 00:58:56,120 --> 00:59:02,080 Speaker 2: a game where they credited Michael Jordan with more steals 941 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:08,560 Speaker 2: than the other team had turnovers. Hmmm, hmmm. Might put 942 00:59:08,560 --> 00:59:11,920 Speaker 2: a little different hue on the old goat conversation. Everyone 943 00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:15,000 Speaker 2: should read it. It just drops at his sports pulat 944 00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:19,800 Speaker 2: or Tom Haberstrow. This this is, this is really you 945 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:23,800 Speaker 2: know what I call this real journalism? What a legend 946 00:59:23,800 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 2: Haberstrow is. I haven't read it, but you know, you 947 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:28,960 Speaker 2: might say, Nick, if you haven't read it and it 948 00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:31,360 Speaker 2: just dropped a few minutes ago, how do you have 949 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 2: all this this info? I might have been aware that 950 00:59:36,040 --> 00:59:39,960 Speaker 2: something like this was coming. I might have been behind 951 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:44,280 Speaker 2: the scenes consulting on the project. I don't know. I'm 952 00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:48,480 Speaker 2: just here for a fair and accurate reading of NBA history. 953 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:52,760 Speaker 2: That's all I want. That's all I've ever wanted. All right, 954 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 2: so demands Sierra. Well, you'll see it our F one 955 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:06,840 Speaker 2: respond it. She is now official because she has gear, 956 01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 2: she has a real camera and Mike set up the 957 01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:15,160 Speaker 2: whole nine, and I think because of that, she was 958 01:00:15,400 --> 01:00:19,240 Speaker 2: very excited about the F one minute this week. So 959 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:23,600 Speaker 2: the F one minute is an F one segment. Let's 960 01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:26,040 Speaker 2: go ahead and hit it. Let's go to Sierra. 961 01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:31,560 Speaker 5: Indeed from the one is back, which means your host 962 01:00:31,720 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 5: of the F one minute, Ci Fidel is back as well. 963 01:00:34,440 --> 01:00:37,120 Speaker 5: But before we get into that, can we appreciate the shirt? 964 01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:43,600 Speaker 5: Can we also appreciate the hat? But most importantly, can 965 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:46,600 Speaker 5: we appreciate the fact that I miked up shout out 966 01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:50,080 Speaker 5: to everyone who bullied nick in to buy me a microphone? 967 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:54,760 Speaker 5: We have officially made it, but I'll just aside. We 968 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:58,479 Speaker 5: are kicking off the tenth round of the Spoon twenty 969 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:01,919 Speaker 5: four from the One season in Barcelona, Spain. Just give 970 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:04,360 Speaker 5: a little background of the circuit. The first from the 971 01:01:04,400 --> 01:01:07,680 Speaker 5: One race was actually held here in nineteen ninety one. However, 972 01:01:08,040 --> 01:01:11,520 Speaker 5: there's a really rich history surrounding racing in this area, 973 01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 5: so the first race was actually in nineteen thirteen, which 974 01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:18,919 Speaker 5: is pretty impressive. We had a nasty crash between Lewis 975 01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:22,960 Speaker 5: Hamilton and Nico Rosberg in twenty sixteen for Max firstapping. 976 01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:25,920 Speaker 5: This led to his first victory in his Formula One career. 977 01:01:26,360 --> 01:01:30,040 Speaker 5: We have some other victories one of Fernado Alonzo, pretty 978 01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 5: emotional ones in twenty six and twenty thirteen. Considering this 979 01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:37,280 Speaker 5: is his home race as well as Nick's favorite Carlos 980 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:41,800 Speaker 5: Science is also his home race as well. Some more 981 01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:44,520 Speaker 5: important information that you guys might need to know coming 982 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:47,440 Speaker 5: into the twenty twenty four Spanish Grand Prix is that 983 01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:50,680 Speaker 5: big teams, well pretty much the Entigrid, but big teams 984 01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:54,960 Speaker 5: like Red Bull, Mercedes, McLaren and Ferrari are all bringing 985 01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:59,360 Speaker 5: forth significant updates to the car. I know Red Bull 986 01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 5: has mentioned their suspension problem, you know, the fact that 987 01:02:02,560 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 5: they're hitting those curves on the track super aggressively is 988 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:09,560 Speaker 5: causing problems for them. I know Ferrari has mentioned the 989 01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:11,800 Speaker 5: fact that they would like to become more competitive in 990 01:02:11,840 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 5: the slow speed areas on the track. Mercedes actually just 991 01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:20,120 Speaker 5: updated their front wing in Montreal, which is amazing for them, 992 01:02:20,160 --> 01:02:23,080 Speaker 5: and now they're looking to upgrade the floor of the car. 993 01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:28,280 Speaker 5: Just different updates that could make big changes or could not. 994 01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 5: We just don't know yet. A couple of teams that 995 01:02:31,480 --> 01:02:35,160 Speaker 5: were really looking out for one being Ferrari Iin the 996 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,600 Speaker 5: fact that they had such a terrible weekend in Montreal. 997 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:42,120 Speaker 5: The Ferrari haters are wishing or hoping that it's kind 998 01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 5: of a deep rooted issue that they have in their 999 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 5: car that causes more issues down the road, But in reality, 1000 01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:51,720 Speaker 5: it was probably just a bad off. It was just 1001 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 5: off weekend for them. But that's why we're kind of 1002 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 5: watching to see if this is like a bigger problem 1003 01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 5: or if they can bounce back super quickly. Another team 1004 01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:03,840 Speaker 5: that we're watching is Mercedes. They've been riding this wave 1005 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:09,600 Speaker 5: of optimism off of the Montreal weekend. We just want 1006 01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:14,680 Speaker 5: to see if these high level accomplishments can be maintained. Basically, 1007 01:03:14,720 --> 01:03:16,320 Speaker 5: you want to see if they can make it to 1008 01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:16,920 Speaker 5: the podium. 1009 01:03:16,920 --> 01:03:17,400 Speaker 2: Maybe. 1010 01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:20,320 Speaker 5: I don't know, we'll see, but that's why we're watching 1011 01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:24,560 Speaker 5: those teams. As far as my predictions go, One, it's 1012 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:28,880 Speaker 5: gonna be Max first happens week whoa who would guess 1013 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:37,760 Speaker 5: Maxi Stappens. Two I'm Lando, I'm gonna go Lando. Three 1014 01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:41,640 Speaker 5: I'm this may be wishful thinking may not, but just 1015 01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 5: the fact that it's his home race, I would just 1016 01:03:43,360 --> 01:03:45,160 Speaker 5: like him to see him on the podium. So I'm 1017 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:50,680 Speaker 5: gonna go Carlo signs yeah, and then for I'm gonna 1018 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:53,440 Speaker 5: go Louis Hamilton. I have faith. I have faith in 1019 01:03:53,440 --> 01:03:56,640 Speaker 5: the Mercedes, I have faith in their updates, I have 1020 01:03:56,680 --> 01:04:00,880 Speaker 5: faith in the drivers and closing. This weekend actually kicks 1021 01:04:00,920 --> 01:04:05,280 Speaker 5: off the tripleheader, which basically means we have Barcelona, Austria 1022 01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:08,400 Speaker 5: and then the British Grand Prix happening back to back 1023 01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:12,520 Speaker 5: to back, so we'll be pretty busy the next three weeks. 1024 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:17,200 Speaker 5: But will Mercedes initiate a revival for this team? Does 1025 01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:20,200 Speaker 5: Ferrari have actual problems or will they just bounce back 1026 01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:23,560 Speaker 5: on the podium like nothing ever happened. Well, we'll see 1027 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:26,439 Speaker 5: tune in for the race this weekend so that next 1028 01:04:26,480 --> 01:04:28,400 Speaker 5: week we have a lot to talk about.

But then starting in August then 1066 01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,120 Speaker 2: so we're not gonna be off the air entirely, but 1067 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,680 Speaker 2: we're gonna be, you know, have some downtime and that 1068 01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:35,160 Speaker 2: in August, we have one week off, but the rest 1069 01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 2: were rolling and then it's football again and we're just rolling. 1070 01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:41,320 Speaker 2: So we'll try to do more kind of creative fun things, 1071 01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:43,840 Speaker 2: but it won't be quite as regular as a schedule 1072 01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:44,680 Speaker 2: as we normally have. 1073 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:48,720 Speaker 4: All right, next, He also asked last show I mentioned 1074 01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:51,960 Speaker 4: should the Lakers trade for money Williams? Now that he's available, 1075 01:06:52,280 --> 01:06:54,440 Speaker 4: what should the Lakers do? Is he a better option 1076 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:55,400 Speaker 4: than JJ Reddick. 1077 01:06:56,360 --> 01:06:58,920 Speaker 2: Well, he's certainly more you know, season of a coach, 1078 01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:00,919 Speaker 2: he's been to the finals. I don't think they're gonna. 1079 01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 2: I don't think they're gonna. 1080 01:07:02,440 --> 01:07:02,600 Speaker 3: Uh. 1081 01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:04,880 Speaker 2: I guess maybe they don't have to pay money a 1082 01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:06,760 Speaker 2: lot because he's getting all that money from Detroit. But 1083 01:07:06,800 --> 01:07:10,440 Speaker 2: Monny might want to take some time off, all right. 1084 01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:15,000 Speaker 4: Next, Scott Murphy said, now that Horford finally won a ring, 1085 01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 4: who is most likely to win one next year? 1086 01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:18,760 Speaker 3: Harden or not? 1087 01:07:18,840 --> 01:07:23,440 Speaker 4: Next year?

Noah Rodriguez Demanse. 1095 01:07:48,200 --> 01:07:49,400 Speaker 3: No what Roriguez said? 1096 01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:52,320 Speaker 4: Nick, I'm getting married today, obviously I had to start 1097 01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:54,320 Speaker 4: off my big day with some what's right?

Not 1106 01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:24,080 Speaker 2: because you're necessarily gonna act a fool, but you don't. 1107 01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:28,240 Speaker 2: You want to vividly remember the evening and you have 1108 01:08:28,320 --> 01:08:31,000 Speaker 2: a few beers with your buddies, you know, as everyone's 1109 01:08:31,000 --> 01:08:34,679 Speaker 2: getting dressed. Then after the ceremony there's a cocktail hour, 1110 01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:37,080 Speaker 2: then all of us you do, there's toast, this, there's 1111 01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:42,160 Speaker 2: all that. You don't want to be legit drunk at 1112 01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:43,880 Speaker 2: the end of the night. And then it's like wait, 1113 01:08:44,120 --> 01:08:46,680 Speaker 2: not because yes, you could embarrass yourself or something, but 1114 01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 2: you want to be able to remember those moments. And 1115 01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:54,200 Speaker 2: the other thing that I would say is take do 1116 01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:58,559 Speaker 2: My biggest piece of wedding advice is for the people 1117 01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:05,000 Speaker 2: getting married.
