<v Speaker 2>Welcome in What's Right with Nick Grit Episode two forty eight.

0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:50.479
<v Speaker 2>Hope everyone had a lovely Juneteenth Holiday? It demands it

0:00:50.800 --> 0:00:56.760
<v Speaker 2>was an unbelievable celebration right here in front of your

0:00:56.760 --> 0:01:02.240
<v Speaker 2>mother's store in Harlem. Her friend Maria uh Through had another.

0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:05.319
<v Speaker 2>Uh she does these. You've maybe seen them. I'm not

0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:07.119
<v Speaker 2>sure if you were living here when she was doing them.

0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:11.400
<v Speaker 2>She calls it soapbox presents and their block parties, and

0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 2>she does them every couple of months or maybe every month.

0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:17.920
<v Speaker 2>But the one last night on one hundred and nineteenth

0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 2>Street was a full blown concert. It was a joyous occasion.

0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:27.120
<v Speaker 2>It was a really good cops weren't mess with anybody.

0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:30.480
<v Speaker 2>Everybody was having a good time. Trin did stayed open

0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:35.400
<v Speaker 2>until midnight. Till midnight, yeah, I mean because there were

0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:40.480
<v Speaker 2>so many people around coming in absolutely and then I

0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:43.240
<v Speaker 2>get home and I'm like, oh, seems like the real

0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:46.840
<v Speaker 2>party was in La. You should have gone, Buddy you

0:01:47.480 --> 0:01:50.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh you haven't been on Okay. I was gonna say,

0:01:50.680 --> 0:01:54.240
<v Speaker 2>are you not aware of the Kendrick concert? But I

0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:57.920
<v Speaker 2>assume you are there concert.

0:01:58.760 --> 0:02:00.680
<v Speaker 3>I haven't been on social media. What it was. It

0:02:00.720 --> 0:02:01.520
<v Speaker 3>was a big thing.

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Behind Buddy.

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 3>Crypt.

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:09.480
<v Speaker 2>I think it was at the Forum, but the too long,

0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:13.799
<v Speaker 2>didn't read version is Kendrick. I mean. Bamani Jones did

0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:17.320
<v Speaker 2>a great recap of this. You know what, I'm gonna

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:20.640
<v Speaker 2>do something. It's I don't even know if from a

0:02:20.680 --> 0:02:23.560
<v Speaker 2>technical standpoint, this is going to work. This might be

0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:26.760
<v Speaker 2>a disaster, but we're gonna try something. It's not gonna work.

0:02:26.800 --> 0:02:28.959
<v Speaker 2>I was gonna FaceTime Bamani and then try to hold

0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:31.240
<v Speaker 2>the phone up to the microphone so people could hear him.

0:02:31.520 --> 0:02:34.960
<v Speaker 2>If people want a good recap of it, check Bamani's

0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:40.760
<v Speaker 2>uh social media account. But Kendrick united Los Angeles, truly

0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:45.120
<v Speaker 2>united Los Angeles Bloods and Crips on stage together dancing

0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:47.160
<v Speaker 2>and you know what they were united in one caused

0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:55.640
<v Speaker 2>demons hating d yes that is buddy. He had Russell

0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:59.360
<v Speaker 2>Westbrook and demart De Rosen on stage dancing to not

0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:04.120
<v Speaker 2>like us. I mean Demarto Rosen played for the Raptors,

0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:08.000
<v Speaker 2>used to wear Ovo gear. I mean it was a

0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:12.520
<v Speaker 2>hell of an event. Bron was there, I mean it

0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:14.799
<v Speaker 2>was he didn't go on stage, but everybody else did.

0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:20.520
<v Speaker 2>And so again this is I can appreciate the music

0:03:20.680 --> 0:03:23.520
<v Speaker 2>and the moment, but also have the self awareness to

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:26.560
<v Speaker 2>know you're not coming to me for you know, the

0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>analysis of what that means and what that was. But

0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 2>it was something else, man, And I didn't know it

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:39.160
<v Speaker 2>was going because the whole it was I was out

0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:41.520
<v Speaker 2>and not, you know, trying to be present and in

0:03:41.560 --> 0:03:44.400
<v Speaker 2>the moment, and so I wasn't on my phone at all.

0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:47.280
<v Speaker 2>And then I got home around one last night after

0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:49.880
<v Speaker 2>we shut down the store, got done with everything, and

0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:53.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm scrolling Twitter. I'm like, oh boy, we missed quite

0:03:53.960 --> 0:03:55.960
<v Speaker 2>the event on the other side of the country. But

0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:59.800
<v Speaker 2>so it really seemed like a really cool Juneteenth. And

0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:05.040
<v Speaker 2>I think it was I think it was Wesley Lowry

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.920
<v Speaker 2>that made this point. I'm not sure, but the Kendrick

0:04:08.000 --> 0:04:16.479
<v Speaker 2>thing was so I mean, it's so seismic. And because

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:21.080
<v Speaker 2>Juneteenth is a newly recognized federal holiday, this is Lowry's

0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:24.120
<v Speaker 2>point that there isn't like, like on the fourth of

0:04:24.200 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 2>July you set off fireworks, right like we know on

0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Thanksgiving we watch football in eat turkey. It's long established

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:34.560
<v Speaker 2>traditions June teenth being a day people even though people

0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:36.760
<v Speaker 2>have celebrated for a long time being a day people

0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:40.040
<v Speaker 2>have off work and all of it, there's not yet

0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:43.760
<v Speaker 2>an established precedent of oh, so like what is the

0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:47.600
<v Speaker 2>go to celebration? And Lowry's point was, did Kendrick just

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:51.800
<v Speaker 2>set it as it's a concert live music day today

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 2>where people listen to music and celebrate that way, And

0:04:54.839 --> 0:04:58.000
<v Speaker 2>he might have. It might have been a legitimately a

0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:01.839
<v Speaker 2>legitimate cultural touchstone. And the fact that it was, you know,

0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:07.599
<v Speaker 2>the crescendo of it was this, these folks hating Drake

0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:13.800
<v Speaker 2>is really a really hard for a remarkable thing. And

0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:18.520
<v Speaker 2>so so all of that is so that was the night.

0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.279
<v Speaker 2>One other note that I need to tell you. So

0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:24.360
<v Speaker 2>this is sorry if you guys heard, I'm gonna again.

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:27.120
<v Speaker 2>Sports are kind of you know, we're in the slow zone.

0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 2>So I don't mind starting the show like this. Sorry

0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:34.159
<v Speaker 2>for the ding you just heard. I'm glad I can

0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:37.120
<v Speaker 2>tell them this. It's a fun time in a parent's

0:05:37.240 --> 0:05:40.640
<v Speaker 2>life when he has a kid old enough that he

0:05:40.760 --> 0:05:45.440
<v Speaker 2>can say these things too about his siblings. I I

0:05:45.560 --> 0:05:47.640
<v Speaker 2>just got a text, and that's what you guys heard,

0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:51.320
<v Speaker 2>the ding. And the text was from you're older, not

0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:53.880
<v Speaker 2>older than you, but your oldest sister. And it was

0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 2>just a screenshot of an email. And parents with teenage

0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:04.120
<v Speaker 2>kids can relate the most every time I get an

0:06:04.680 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 2>contextless like you need to look at this email. I

0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:12.200
<v Speaker 2>just got text. My heart just drops, like, oh Jesus,

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:14.760
<v Speaker 2>like what is this? Like you owe? Like is this

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:18.640
<v Speaker 2>like the you you owe six thousand dollars for damage

0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:21.440
<v Speaker 2>to a dorm? Is this you know what I mean? Like, oh,

0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:25.720
<v Speaker 2>actually you you missed a midterm? It just it and

0:06:25.880 --> 0:06:28.080
<v Speaker 2>so I just glanced at It's actually fine, It's it's

0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 2>a positive email, but there is an element of like,

0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:35.039
<v Speaker 2>oh no, it's the same feeling you get if you

0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:39.040
<v Speaker 2>have teenage kids that text all the time and never

0:06:39.200 --> 0:06:42.120
<v Speaker 2>call when they When you see that they are the

0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:45.000
<v Speaker 2>one calling you, you want to be excited about it,

0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:49.760
<v Speaker 2>but you're actually terrified, Like oh Jesus, you're just like gripping.

0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.760
<v Speaker 2>You're like, all right, I hope this is Hey, how's

0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:58.360
<v Speaker 2>it going? And I still I'm gonna. I'm gonna I

0:06:58.080 --> 0:07:02.440
<v Speaker 2>I will without giving details. And even though I Demonse

0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:06.159
<v Speaker 2>turns twenty six in three weeks, hasn't been in any

0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 2>what I would call real trouble in four years. It's

0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 2>been a long time, three years, like you know what

0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:16.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean, and real trouble is too extreme, but any

0:07:16.480 --> 0:07:18.480
<v Speaker 2>like where it's like, oh man, this is a stressful,

0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:21.520
<v Speaker 2>crummy situation. He's never actually been in any real trouble

0:07:21.520 --> 0:07:26.360
<v Speaker 2>in his whole life. And even yesterday Demonse called me

0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 2>with great news, but I misheard the word conversation as confrontation.

0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:34.720
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh Jesus, because I knew the person's abodes.

0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:38.440
<v Speaker 2>And the answer was, I had an amazing conversation with

0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:41.200
<v Speaker 2>so and so today. And I heard I had an

0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:45.640
<v Speaker 2>amazing confrontation with so and so. I'm like, Jesus, what happened? So, yeah,

0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:48.480
<v Speaker 2>that's maybe that's no, it's not you. It's just the

0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:51.960
<v Speaker 2>neuroses of being a parent. Also, one other thing before

0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:57.080
<v Speaker 2>we get to the actual show. If you subscribe to

0:07:57.200 --> 0:08:05.680
<v Speaker 2>the print edition of arguably the greatest magazine cultural magazine

0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:11.600
<v Speaker 2>that's ever existed, The New Yorker, the one that, amazingly

0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:16.320
<v Speaker 2>this is an unbelievable turn of events. On the cover

0:08:17.320 --> 0:08:22.560
<v Speaker 2>has a white dad wearing an Olivia Rodrigo t shirt,

0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:29.360
<v Speaker 2>vaping black mom, and a tennish year old daughter walking

0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:32.760
<v Speaker 2>in front of them, annoyed with her parents. That's the

0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 2>cover of the prededition of this week's New Yorker. If

0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:40.400
<v Speaker 2>you have it, go to page seven and look on

0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 2>the right hand column in the three things I'm interested

0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 2>in this week, and number two is the author's favorite

0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:55.600
<v Speaker 2>television show. First things first, it is so dope. He

0:08:55.640 --> 0:09:01.320
<v Speaker 2>calls it like Letterman for sports fans. Now, I was

0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:05.600
<v Speaker 2>aware that this existed on the New Yorker website like

0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:07.960
<v Speaker 2>that it last weeks. It was sent to me and

0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:10.440
<v Speaker 2>then I saw the who wrote it, and I was

0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:14.280
<v Speaker 2>taken aback, and I tweeted about it. But because I'm old.

0:09:15.040 --> 0:09:17.880
<v Speaker 2>It's one thing to have something be on the website.

0:09:18.320 --> 0:09:22.080
<v Speaker 2>It's another thing to have it in the print edition

0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:27.320
<v Speaker 2>of the magazine, not of the New Yorker magazine. And

0:09:28.000 --> 0:09:30.760
<v Speaker 2>the fact that the cover might as well have been me,

0:09:30.920 --> 0:09:33.360
<v Speaker 2>your mom, and Deanna. I don't have an Olivia Rodrigo

0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:36.640
<v Speaker 2>T shirt, but if I did, I would wear it.

0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:41.559
<v Speaker 2>Is pretty, is pretty unbelievable. It might be the greatest

0:09:41.600 --> 0:09:45.640
<v Speaker 2>press the television show's ever gotten. To get blurbed in

0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:52.600
<v Speaker 2>the New Yorker is unfathomable, and shout out to the author.

0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:55.440
<v Speaker 2>And it's really cool. And if you subscribe to New

0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:59.160
<v Speaker 2>Yorker again, page seven, right hand column. Okay, I said

0:09:59.160 --> 0:10:01.680
<v Speaker 2>we were gonna go fast today. We have now gone

0:10:01.720 --> 0:10:04.080
<v Speaker 2>ten minutes and the show hasn't really even started.

0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:08.520
<v Speaker 3>My apologies anything we've ever gone before.

0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:12.000
<v Speaker 2>I know, and I usually make fun of podcasts for

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:16.400
<v Speaker 2>doing that exact thing where it's like it, but it

0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:18.720
<v Speaker 2>is that time, and I think all of that, and

0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:21.600
<v Speaker 2>I do think the Kendrick thing was the zeitgeist, and

0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:24.000
<v Speaker 2>I think people relate to the parenting. And if I'm

0:10:24.080 --> 0:10:26.040
<v Speaker 2>in the New Yorker, I'm gonna talk about it all right,

0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:29.880
<v Speaker 2>Here's what missed the cut. Travis Kelcey on the Super

0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:31.960
<v Speaker 2>Bowl Ring Typo. He says he doesn't give ah and

0:10:31.960 --> 0:10:34.920
<v Speaker 2>he shouldn't. Of all the things that could be a typo,

0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:39.520
<v Speaker 2>this is the least meaningful. If they've gotten the score

0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:44.000
<v Speaker 2>of one of the games wrong, that's unfortunate. If they

0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:47.920
<v Speaker 2>had gotten the team they played wrong, that's almost we

0:10:48.040 --> 0:10:51.280
<v Speaker 2>have to remake the ring. But calling the Dolphins the

0:10:51.320 --> 0:10:53.520
<v Speaker 2>seventh seed when they were the sixth seed doesn't matter.

0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Pascal Siakam's gonna sign a Max and Andy and Willie Mays.

0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:02.400
<v Speaker 2>I believe the great baseball player to ever live passed

0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:07.800
<v Speaker 2>away at ninety three. We I don't like to do

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:14.960
<v Speaker 2>brief obituaries, and but there's not a lot of sports

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:19.559
<v Speaker 2>memorabilia that I still have. But and demon'sa you might

0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:23.280
<v Speaker 2>not even realize it's Willie Mays, but in my office,

0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:26.360
<v Speaker 2>think about when you were sitting in my office watching football.

0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:29.960
<v Speaker 2>On the wall where the door is the exactly the

0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:34.079
<v Speaker 2>box that has the baseball in it. Yes, is a

0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:37.199
<v Speaker 2>picture of Willie Mays making the most famous catching baseball

0:11:37.240 --> 0:11:41.240
<v Speaker 2>history and assigned Willy Mays Baseball. I've had that for

0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:47.360
<v Speaker 2>on it close to thirty years now. The greatest aside

0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:50.160
<v Speaker 2>from Barry Bond, who has the weird kind of I

0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:53.400
<v Speaker 2>don't know if asterisk but cloud hanging over him. The

0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:58.560
<v Speaker 2>greatest baseball player of my lifetime all around, hitting, fielding,

0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:01.960
<v Speaker 2>all around was King Griffy Due, and Willy Mays was,

0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:06.720
<v Speaker 2>quite literally in a lot of statistical categories, twice the player,

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:10.080
<v Speaker 2>and Griffy's one of the fifteen greatest players ever. It's

0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:13.679
<v Speaker 2>unfathomable what a great player he was. And as a

0:12:13.720 --> 0:12:17.640
<v Speaker 2>reminder that history is what we are currently living, we

0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:20.480
<v Speaker 2>try to pretend it was a long time ago. Willy Mays,

0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 2>who passed away two days ago. Remember a couple weeks

0:12:25.840 --> 0:12:30.880
<v Speaker 2>ago when Major League Baseball added the Negro league stats

0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:35.880
<v Speaker 2>to the official Major League Baseball stats, Willy Mays, who

0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:39.080
<v Speaker 2>has passed away at ninety three two days ago, career

0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:44.080
<v Speaker 2>hit number went up by eight because he played in

0:12:44.080 --> 0:12:48.480
<v Speaker 2>the Negro leagues. And then he played twenty four years

0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:51.480
<v Speaker 2>in professional baseball with a year and a half stolen

0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:55.000
<v Speaker 2>from him because he was in the Korean War. An unbelievable,

0:12:55.720 --> 0:13:00.880
<v Speaker 2>legendary player and one of the most universally popular players

0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:06.240
<v Speaker 2>of all time. And all right, so, demonse, let's get

0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:09.559
<v Speaker 2>to the actual show and talk to Jason Tatum.

0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:12.040
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, so yes, shay On your show, you talked about

0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:16.120
<v Speaker 4>the different levels that Tatum could reach, and the Twitter

0:13:16.160 --> 0:13:19.560
<v Speaker 4>aggregators picked that and ran with it. So here's your

0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:21.720
<v Speaker 4>chance to set the record straight. Where do you think

0:13:21.760 --> 0:13:23.240
<v Speaker 4>that Tatum's ceiling is?

0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:28.280
<v Speaker 2>So I I think his ceiling is probably I think

0:13:28.280 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 2>he's very close to his ceiling. I disagree with Bill

0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:33.679
<v Speaker 2>Simmons that there's another level he's going to get to.

0:13:33.760 --> 0:13:37.959
<v Speaker 2>I understand he's just twenty six, but he's a weird

0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:41.600
<v Speaker 2>twenty six because he's twenty six with one hundred and

0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:45.640
<v Speaker 2>ten playoff games under his belt, so he's played so

0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:50.880
<v Speaker 2>much in high levered spots. I like Shay is Shay

0:13:51.000 --> 0:13:53.640
<v Speaker 2>is only a few months younger than Tatum. I think

0:13:53.640 --> 0:13:57.040
<v Speaker 2>it's more realistic to believe Shay has more levels because

0:13:57.280 --> 0:14:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Shay just hasn't been in these types of spots as all.

0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:05.640
<v Speaker 2>And maybe I'm wrong about that, but my frustration is

0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:09.080
<v Speaker 2>twofold one is I'm gonna read you a tweet. Someone

0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:16.720
<v Speaker 2>clipped what Bruce said Jason Tatum about his contract. Jason

0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:19.800
<v Speaker 2>Tatum deserves the money, no question, but yes he has

0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:23.200
<v Speaker 2>something to prove. Can he play his best in the finals?

0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:26.360
<v Speaker 2>Because the question we were asked was does Jason Tatum

0:14:26.400 --> 0:14:29.800
<v Speaker 2>have anything more to prove? And this person quote tweeted

0:14:29.840 --> 0:14:34.320
<v Speaker 2>it saying the fing goalpost moving is hilarious and then

0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:38.680
<v Speaker 2>quotes Kobe Bryant stats over his first two finals, which

0:14:38.720 --> 0:14:42.280
<v Speaker 2>is a little unfair to Kobe because Kobe was not

0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:45.960
<v Speaker 2>good at all in his first finals and then very

0:14:46.000 --> 0:14:48.960
<v Speaker 2>good in his second finals. But that then made the

0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:52.000
<v Speaker 2>overall numbers just look mediocre. But it wasn't like he was.

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:55.520
<v Speaker 2>He was bad in won and then quite good in

0:14:55.560 --> 0:14:58.560
<v Speaker 2>the next one. The overall numbers look mediocre. Then they

0:14:58.560 --> 0:15:01.520
<v Speaker 2>show Lebron's first two finals finals. Lebron wasn't good in

0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:07.960
<v Speaker 2>either one of those, and then Tatum's that tweet proves

0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:13.320
<v Speaker 2>my point or Bru's point. You know what, Lebron James

0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:18.000
<v Speaker 2>had to prove after his first two finals that he

0:15:18.040 --> 0:15:20.920
<v Speaker 2>could play well in the finals. Did he have something

0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:24.800
<v Speaker 2>less to prove? Absolutely? Now Lebron didn't have a championship,

0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:27.560
<v Speaker 2>and Tatum does. Kobe had two. With that point, Tatum

0:15:27.600 --> 0:15:35.200
<v Speaker 2>has won. But it's not people. This would be goalpost moving. Okay,

0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:39.360
<v Speaker 2>if folks wouldn't give Jason, if folks were like, you

0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:44.840
<v Speaker 2>know what, I'm not impressed by Jason Tatum. If folks said,

0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:48.360
<v Speaker 2>let me rephrase it. If folks going into it said,

0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:52.880
<v Speaker 2>like I did, I question whether or not you can

0:15:52.920 --> 0:15:55.840
<v Speaker 2>win the championship with Jason Tatum as your best player.

0:15:56.440 --> 0:15:59.400
<v Speaker 2>And then the Celtics win the championship with Jason Tatum

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:01.880
<v Speaker 2>as one A, one B but their best player over

0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:03.880
<v Speaker 2>the course of the year, even if he wasn't their

0:16:03.920 --> 0:16:06.800
<v Speaker 2>best player in the finals, but it was arguable at least,

0:16:07.400 --> 0:16:12.000
<v Speaker 2>And then they say, don't care that he did it,

0:16:12.680 --> 0:16:16.320
<v Speaker 2>he wasn't that good, and then take shots at him.

0:16:16.560 --> 0:16:20.800
<v Speaker 2>That's goal post moving. It is not goal post moving.

0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:26.640
<v Speaker 2>To say, okay, that level of the video game is completed,

0:16:28.000 --> 0:16:32.760
<v Speaker 2>how high can you rise? That to me is complimentary

0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:37.000
<v Speaker 2>me saying so I was asked, the thing that got

0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:42.240
<v Speaker 2>aggregated from me was I was asked, same question, was

0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:45.760
<v Speaker 2>Jason Tatum I have left to prove? And my answer was, well,

0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:50.200
<v Speaker 2>it depends on what he's trying to prove. And I

0:16:50.320 --> 0:16:53.840
<v Speaker 2>used wild as a career as an example, but I'll

0:16:53.920 --> 0:17:00.040
<v Speaker 2>use my own instead. If my goal professionally was I

0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:06.080
<v Speaker 2>want to one day host a national television show in

0:17:06.160 --> 0:17:10.080
<v Speaker 2>the sports room, then if you were like, hey, Nick,

0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:12.600
<v Speaker 2>what more do you have to prove. If that was

0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:17.520
<v Speaker 2>my peak goal, then the answer is nothing. I've proven it.

0:17:18.520 --> 0:17:21.880
<v Speaker 2>If my goal was what it actually is to one

0:17:22.000 --> 0:17:27.600
<v Speaker 2>day be the biggest sports personality in America, then I

0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:30.320
<v Speaker 2>have a lot more to prove because I'm not there.

0:17:30.880 --> 0:17:34.000
<v Speaker 2>So the point that I made about Jason Tatum, what

0:17:34.040 --> 0:17:36.800
<v Speaker 2>more does he have to prove? It's actually a question

0:17:36.840 --> 0:17:39.680
<v Speaker 2>of what is he trying to prove. If his goal

0:17:39.960 --> 0:17:45.320
<v Speaker 2>was to be in the conversation as the best Celtic

0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:50.240
<v Speaker 2>since Larry Bird, then he doesn't have anything left to prove.

0:17:51.480 --> 0:17:54.960
<v Speaker 2>He is not only in that conversation. It's him or

0:17:55.000 --> 0:17:59.640
<v Speaker 2>Paul Pierce, and right now he is, to me trending

0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:03.879
<v Speaker 2>better than Pierce. Piers did win that Finals MVP, but

0:18:03.960 --> 0:18:06.960
<v Speaker 2>just like this one, it was very close to Pierce

0:18:07.080 --> 0:18:10.000
<v Speaker 2>never made first team All NBA. Tatum's done it three times.

0:18:10.200 --> 0:18:13.760
<v Speaker 2>So if Tatum's goal capped out at be a champion,

0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:16.840
<v Speaker 2>be the best Celtics since Paul Pierce, which you kind

0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:19.720
<v Speaker 2>of can't do one without the other, then he has

0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:23.240
<v Speaker 2>nothing left to prove. But if Tatum's goal is what

0:18:23.440 --> 0:18:28.520
<v Speaker 2>he has stated, to be the best player in the world,

0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:32.680
<v Speaker 2>or I'll take that down a degree legitimately in the

0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:36.159
<v Speaker 2>conversation for best player in the world, which he is

0:18:36.200 --> 0:18:39.560
<v Speaker 2>not currently, then he has a lot more to prove.

0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:45.000
<v Speaker 2>That's not unfair. That's not moving the goalposts. That is

0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:56.280
<v Speaker 2>recognizing that the more you achieve unless you have reached satisfaction,

0:18:56.480 --> 0:19:01.240
<v Speaker 2>so to speak. Like I'll give you an example. I

0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:07.440
<v Speaker 2>don't think Anthony Davis is trying to prove anything else.

0:19:08.680 --> 0:19:13.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't think Anthony Davis has a goal. Maybe I'm

0:19:13.080 --> 0:19:15.920
<v Speaker 2>being unfair and this will probably be clipped as well.

0:19:15.920 --> 0:19:18.160
<v Speaker 2>I would prefer it not, but I don't think Anthony

0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:21.639
<v Speaker 2>Davis is like obsessed with I want to be the

0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:25.240
<v Speaker 2>best player in the world. I think Anthony Davis came

0:19:25.280 --> 0:19:28.480
<v Speaker 2>to LA to prove I can be a part of

0:19:28.520 --> 0:19:32.600
<v Speaker 2>a championship team and I can play great basketball in

0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:36.080
<v Speaker 2>big games when I didn't have that opportunity in New Orleans,

0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:40.479
<v Speaker 2>and he proved it. And now he is, now what

0:19:40.560 --> 0:19:42.360
<v Speaker 2>does he have to prove? I think right now he's

0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:44.480
<v Speaker 2>trying to prove I can stay healthy, and he did

0:19:44.520 --> 0:19:47.280
<v Speaker 2>that this year. But I don't think he has I

0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:49.800
<v Speaker 2>don't think Anthony Davis is out there right now being

0:19:49.840 --> 0:19:53.000
<v Speaker 2>like I'm going to win MVPs. I don't think that.

0:19:54.000 --> 0:19:57.399
<v Speaker 2>So I think that so in a weird way, I

0:19:57.440 --> 0:19:59.480
<v Speaker 2>don't think he has more to prove because he's not

0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:03.199
<v Speaker 2>trying to prove anything else. Tatum is on the record

0:20:03.240 --> 0:20:05.320
<v Speaker 2>saying I think I can be the best player in

0:20:05.400 --> 0:20:08.399
<v Speaker 2>the world. If that truly is his goal, then he

0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:11.960
<v Speaker 2>has more to prove. He's proved a ton already. But

0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:16.320
<v Speaker 2>now it's that kind of final boss last step. So

0:20:16.440 --> 0:20:19.080
<v Speaker 2>demon's as a Tatum guy and as a Celtic guy

0:20:19.400 --> 0:20:21.440
<v Speaker 2>when I explain and feel free to say you think

0:20:21.440 --> 0:20:23.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm full of s But do you think what I

0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:27.120
<v Speaker 2>said there a makes sense and be as fair or

0:20:27.160 --> 0:20:29.760
<v Speaker 2>am I doing what the Internet's accusing me of doing,

0:20:29.760 --> 0:20:31.399
<v Speaker 2>which is moving the goalposts?

0:20:31.720 --> 0:20:33.440
<v Speaker 3>Well? I do think there is something off.

0:20:33.520 --> 0:20:35.840
<v Speaker 4>I get, Like, I get I get that Luca is

0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:39.359
<v Speaker 4>on that, but like you're saying that Tatum is not

0:20:39.480 --> 0:20:41.840
<v Speaker 4>even in the talks of being the best player in

0:20:41.880 --> 0:20:44.600
<v Speaker 4>the world right now, but like Luca was going to

0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:46.880
<v Speaker 4>be crowned the best player if he won that finals.

0:20:46.920 --> 0:20:48.320
<v Speaker 3>I get, because like he didn't have help.

0:20:48.640 --> 0:20:51.880
<v Speaker 4>I feel like it still sounds a little weird, but uh,

0:20:52.320 --> 0:20:55.240
<v Speaker 4>but yeah, I mean I don't I think I think

0:20:55.240 --> 0:20:56.440
<v Speaker 4>it is fair Tatum does have.

0:20:56.440 --> 0:20:56.920
<v Speaker 3>More to prove.

0:20:57.000 --> 0:20:59.119
<v Speaker 4>He didn't perform in the finals to the level that

0:20:59.520 --> 0:21:00.760
<v Speaker 4>you will probably I thought he should have.

0:21:00.840 --> 0:21:04.760
<v Speaker 3>I guess thought he would have. But yeah, I don't

0:21:04.760 --> 0:21:05.200
<v Speaker 3>think it's.

0:21:05.040 --> 0:21:07.880
<v Speaker 2>A It's like so all right, So let me address

0:21:07.960 --> 0:21:13.119
<v Speaker 2>that in reverse order again that the finals thing, to

0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:16.080
<v Speaker 2>me is just objective guys who have been to the

0:21:16.119 --> 0:21:21.040
<v Speaker 2>finals and didn't play their best basketball. Gosh darn. Steph

0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:25.760
<v Speaker 2>Curry on pre twenty twenty two had to prove he

0:21:25.760 --> 0:21:28.359
<v Speaker 2>could play his best basketball in the finals. He did.

0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:31.000
<v Speaker 2>It was the only level left on the video game

0:21:31.080 --> 0:21:32.960
<v Speaker 2>for him. Could he be the best player on a

0:21:33.040 --> 0:21:37.040
<v Speaker 2>champion YEP in twenty fifteen. Could he play well in

0:21:37.080 --> 0:21:40.320
<v Speaker 2>the finals YEP did in twenty eighteen. Really well, I

0:21:40.320 --> 0:21:44.840
<v Speaker 2>should say there, But in twenty the reason steat that

0:21:45.160 --> 0:21:47.480
<v Speaker 2>championship in twenty twenty two was so important was not

0:21:47.520 --> 0:21:51.280
<v Speaker 2>only it was without KD, but it was we were

0:21:51.320 --> 0:21:54.600
<v Speaker 2>down two one backs against the wall. It was all

0:21:54.680 --> 0:21:58.639
<v Speaker 2>on me. I dropped forty on Boston one Finals MVP,

0:21:59.280 --> 0:22:04.280
<v Speaker 2>and yet so he even Steph had something left to prove.

0:22:04.640 --> 0:22:08.919
<v Speaker 2>Lebron when he left Miami as a four time MVP

0:22:09.520 --> 0:22:13.960
<v Speaker 2>two time champion, five finals appearances, had something left to prove?

0:22:14.480 --> 0:22:20.240
<v Speaker 2>Can I win without this the Heatles super Team pat

0:22:20.320 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 2>Riley right, So there was something left. Kobe was a

0:22:25.960 --> 0:22:30.600
<v Speaker 2>three time champion and league MVP and was still trying

0:22:30.680 --> 0:22:34.480
<v Speaker 2>to prove he could win without Shaquille O'Neill like, and

0:22:34.800 --> 0:22:37.240
<v Speaker 2>then he did it there there, So that is not

0:22:38.520 --> 0:22:42.480
<v Speaker 2>my frustration. Is it's not an insult, it's a compliment.

0:22:43.640 --> 0:22:48.679
<v Speaker 2>If it is a compliment to say you are, you know,

0:22:49.000 --> 0:22:54.040
<v Speaker 2>a consensus top ten player, you were just the throughout

0:22:54.080 --> 0:22:57.320
<v Speaker 2>the course of the season, the best player throughout the

0:22:57.359 --> 0:22:59.600
<v Speaker 2>course of the playoffs, the best or the second best

0:22:59.600 --> 0:23:04.400
<v Speaker 2>player on the champions and there's still more to do.

0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:07.920
<v Speaker 2>That's a compliment. Now if it comes with while trying

0:23:07.920 --> 0:23:09.919
<v Speaker 2>to rip the guy, then it's not. But that's not

0:23:09.960 --> 0:23:13.919
<v Speaker 2>what I've been doing. The Luca thing is just to

0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:19.360
<v Speaker 2>me an objective reality of the fact. And I shouldn't

0:23:19.359 --> 0:23:22.679
<v Speaker 2>say objective reality. I believe, and I think I have

0:23:22.720 --> 0:23:24.800
<v Speaker 2>a lot of reason to believe that Luca is a

0:23:24.800 --> 0:23:28.080
<v Speaker 2>better player than Jason Tatum, even though Jason Tatum's team

0:23:28.320 --> 0:23:32.560
<v Speaker 2>just beat Luca's team. Now, that might be if you

0:23:32.720 --> 0:23:35.680
<v Speaker 2>wanted to argue the other side of it, I think

0:23:35.720 --> 0:23:39.320
<v Speaker 2>what you would have needed was in these finals for

0:23:39.480 --> 0:23:41.840
<v Speaker 2>Tatum to put up Luca's stat line, or at the

0:23:41.880 --> 0:23:45.160
<v Speaker 2>very least Luca to put up tatum stat line. If

0:23:45.240 --> 0:23:49.680
<v Speaker 2>Luca in these finals had played really poorly, then it's

0:23:49.720 --> 0:23:52.440
<v Speaker 2>a and Tatum had played really well, then it's even

0:23:52.480 --> 0:23:55.080
<v Speaker 2>though it's a team sport, it's a harder argument to make.

0:23:55.680 --> 0:23:58.960
<v Speaker 2>And so I just I right now, and this is

0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:03.000
<v Speaker 2>the question that I had right now. To me, it

0:24:03.119 --> 0:24:07.600
<v Speaker 2>is a pretty clear top three players in the league.

0:24:07.840 --> 0:24:10.960
<v Speaker 2>Yo Get's, Luca and Yannis. It's not clear how to

0:24:11.160 --> 0:24:14.480
<v Speaker 2>order those three. That's how I would order them yo

0:24:14.600 --> 0:24:17.880
<v Speaker 2>Ki's Luca Yannis. But if someone wants say they want

0:24:17.920 --> 0:24:20.800
<v Speaker 2>Giannis over Luca, it's pretty hard right now to not

0:24:20.920 --> 0:24:23.920
<v Speaker 2>have Jokis number one. But you can argue about it.

0:24:24.920 --> 0:24:30.960
<v Speaker 2>That next group. There's Tatum, there's Shay, there's Anthony Edwards.

0:24:31.400 --> 0:24:34.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't really know what we do with EMBIID. It's

0:24:34.359 --> 0:24:37.240
<v Speaker 2>like embiid's got MVPs and runner ups and but no

0:24:37.359 --> 0:24:41.160
<v Speaker 2>good playoff runs and always gets you know, so, uh,

0:24:41.240 --> 0:24:47.119
<v Speaker 2>I think an honest question and a tough question, is

0:24:47.600 --> 0:24:53.200
<v Speaker 2>what's more likely that Tatum jumps into that next group,

0:24:54.160 --> 0:24:59.800
<v Speaker 2>or shae An Aunt jump past Tatum. I think that,

0:25:00.160 --> 0:25:02.879
<v Speaker 2>like I think that is, I don't know which direction

0:25:03.000 --> 0:25:03.760
<v Speaker 2>that's going to go.

0:25:03.880 --> 0:25:06.160
<v Speaker 4>I guess think it's less likely because I think Boston

0:25:06.240 --> 0:25:08.160
<v Speaker 4>is more likely to end up back in the finals.

0:25:08.520 --> 0:25:11.119
<v Speaker 3>I think they'll have that chance. I think that.

0:25:11.720 --> 0:25:14.000
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I guess Boston'd be in the finals against

0:25:14.040 --> 0:25:14.640
<v Speaker 4>those teams.

0:25:15.040 --> 0:25:18.040
<v Speaker 3>But no, that's fair.

0:25:18.080 --> 0:25:21.119
<v Speaker 4>I think Taylor's gonna have a lot more time to

0:25:21.280 --> 0:25:24.120
<v Speaker 4>prove himself and beat that extra game level that you're

0:25:24.160 --> 0:25:24.720
<v Speaker 4>talking about.

0:25:25.240 --> 0:25:29.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, so there is a there is another element, which

0:25:29.800 --> 0:25:35.800
<v Speaker 2>is as far as not getting complacent but getting the

0:25:35.840 --> 0:25:39.080
<v Speaker 2>monkey off your back, there is an element of this

0:25:39.200 --> 0:25:44.800
<v Speaker 2>being the perfect result for Tatum, meaning he no longer

0:25:44.880 --> 0:25:48.159
<v Speaker 2>has the pressure of can you win with this guy

0:25:48.320 --> 0:25:51.439
<v Speaker 2>at the highest level, no one can ever make the

0:25:51.560 --> 0:25:54.800
<v Speaker 2>argument again, Okay, you're capped out, you can't win a

0:25:54.880 --> 0:25:57.439
<v Speaker 2>championship if he's your best player, because they literally just

0:25:57.520 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 2>won the championship, right, But it also has a real

0:26:03.560 --> 0:26:07.879
<v Speaker 2>legitimate motivating factor to try to get a touch better,

0:26:08.359 --> 0:26:11.480
<v Speaker 2>which is, I didn't win the finals, MVP, and I

0:26:11.520 --> 0:26:14.399
<v Speaker 2>didn't play my best basketball in the finals, So maybe

0:26:14.400 --> 0:26:19.240
<v Speaker 2>they're you know, as far as Tatum's career trajectory, maybe

0:26:19.280 --> 0:26:22.880
<v Speaker 2>this is the best case scenario where it let's say

0:26:22.880 --> 0:26:24.960
<v Speaker 2>he had played great in the finals and they won

0:26:25.000 --> 0:26:27.240
<v Speaker 2>the Tier wins Finals MVP. I don't think he would,

0:26:27.440 --> 0:26:29.360
<v Speaker 2>but maybe you take your foot off the gas a bit,

0:26:29.840 --> 0:26:32.640
<v Speaker 2>and if they lose the finals because he plays poorly,

0:26:33.080 --> 0:26:35.560
<v Speaker 2>maybe that gets in your head and you know it

0:26:36.400 --> 0:26:38.200
<v Speaker 2>in the next time you're a big moments.

0:26:38.200 --> 0:26:40.880
<v Speaker 4>Also, I want to like, I feel like I've said

0:26:40.880 --> 0:26:44.480
<v Speaker 4>this before, but at the same time, like we've obviously

0:26:44.520 --> 0:26:46.040
<v Speaker 4>like this is the finals, I get it, but we've

0:26:46.160 --> 0:26:50.520
<v Speaker 4>we've seen Tatum put up numbers when it was necessary,

0:26:51.320 --> 0:26:54.240
<v Speaker 4>like in the times where it was called for. He's

0:26:54.359 --> 0:26:56.600
<v Speaker 4>he's had fifty points against the Bucks in a game seven,

0:26:56.720 --> 0:26:59.119
<v Speaker 4>Like he does it when he when he needs to.

0:26:59.600 --> 0:27:01.840
<v Speaker 4>He never at any point, I don't he didn't need

0:27:01.880 --> 0:27:04.440
<v Speaker 4>to be thirty five and eight or whatever you want

0:27:04.440 --> 0:27:07.120
<v Speaker 4>to call it, like it's it's it was Finn. That's

0:27:07.640 --> 0:27:10.280
<v Speaker 4>sounds part of it, like they'll never really test it.

0:27:10.359 --> 0:27:15.359
<v Speaker 2>So okay, so you make two good points I'm gonna

0:27:15.400 --> 0:27:18.239
<v Speaker 2>make I'm gonna add one little yeah butt to it.

0:27:19.440 --> 0:27:22.919
<v Speaker 2>Down three to two to Milwaukee, Yanni's playing out of

0:27:22.920 --> 0:27:26.399
<v Speaker 2>his mind. Tatum drops forty six points on the road,

0:27:26.680 --> 0:27:29.320
<v Speaker 2>keep the season alive. They then win the series in seven.

0:27:29.960 --> 0:27:34.680
<v Speaker 2>That's a real moment, the defending champs on the road,

0:27:35.760 --> 0:27:38.280
<v Speaker 2>and in that game, Tatum outplayed Giannis. And it wasn't

0:27:38.280 --> 0:27:41.560
<v Speaker 2>because Gianna's played poorly. The game you're referring to Game

0:27:41.720 --> 0:27:46.840
<v Speaker 2>seven last year against Philly, Tatum drops fifty points. Right,

0:27:47.160 --> 0:27:52.640
<v Speaker 2>those things happened. So there's so and those are You

0:27:52.720 --> 0:27:56.280
<v Speaker 2>could argue that both of those games, because they were

0:27:56.280 --> 0:28:00.400
<v Speaker 2>elimination games, were in a weird way higher pressure than

0:28:00.480 --> 0:28:04.199
<v Speaker 2>any of these finals games because that they were in

0:28:04.320 --> 0:28:07.080
<v Speaker 2>control from start to finish of the series. Right, So

0:28:07.200 --> 0:28:11.320
<v Speaker 2>that's fair the one. Yeah, but I'm gonna add when

0:28:11.359 --> 0:28:16.320
<v Speaker 2>people are like, well they he you're asking him to

0:28:16.359 --> 0:28:19.600
<v Speaker 2>put up numbers when maybe that wasn't you know, what

0:28:19.680 --> 0:28:22.200
<v Speaker 2>the team needed or what was best for the team,

0:28:22.560 --> 0:28:28.440
<v Speaker 2>that rings a touch hollow because he did take shots

0:28:28.480 --> 0:28:32.159
<v Speaker 2>than Yeah, exactly, it wasn't a I'm gonna you know,

0:28:32.320 --> 0:28:35.320
<v Speaker 2>and so it was he was trying to score. He

0:28:35.520 --> 0:28:37.480
<v Speaker 2>just his shot was off, you know what I mean,

0:28:37.600 --> 0:28:41.200
<v Speaker 2>Like the there's just that that is just what it was.

0:28:41.240 --> 0:28:43.320
<v Speaker 2>And by the way his shot was off. It was

0:28:43.320 --> 0:28:48.240
<v Speaker 2>weird this whole playoffs. Somebody, uh Second Spectrum stats, they

0:28:48.280 --> 0:28:51.280
<v Speaker 2>tweeted Second Spectrum didn't tweet it, but somebody tweeted this

0:28:51.400 --> 0:28:56.680
<v Speaker 2>yesterday that Yannis this year on jumpers was twenty nine

0:28:56.880 --> 0:29:00.600
<v Speaker 2>point eight percent and Tatum in the playoffs was twenty

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:04.959
<v Speaker 2>nine point nine percent. His jumper just wasn't falling, like

0:29:05.040 --> 0:29:08.240
<v Speaker 2>throughout the playoffs's jumper wasn't falling. It was, and so

0:29:08.280 --> 0:29:11.120
<v Speaker 2>that might just be a simple thing like, ah, his

0:29:11.240 --> 0:29:14.560
<v Speaker 2>jumper just wasn't falling. So I think, here is my

0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:17.560
<v Speaker 2>frustration with the Internet, and this I just I guess

0:29:17.560 --> 0:29:21.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm chemically unable to do a quick show. I don't

0:29:21.560 --> 0:29:28.960
<v Speaker 2>know what's wrong with the I think that these are smart,

0:29:29.480 --> 0:29:33.920
<v Speaker 2>interesting sports conversations, and I'm not acting like I'm not

0:29:34.000 --> 0:29:36.600
<v Speaker 2>someone that can go out there and give a take

0:29:36.640 --> 0:29:40.560
<v Speaker 2>as hot as the next guy. But I get frustrated

0:29:41.480 --> 0:29:46.600
<v Speaker 2>when what I think is a smart, nuanced conversation is

0:29:46.680 --> 0:29:51.800
<v Speaker 2>being packaged as a hot take. I like a hot take.

0:29:52.200 --> 0:29:56.320
<v Speaker 2>I think the I think hot takes have been disrespected

0:29:56.400 --> 0:29:59.760
<v Speaker 2>and unfairly maligned. I think hot takes are great for

0:29:59.840 --> 0:30:04.040
<v Speaker 2>the sports media culture. Actually not bad, but I don't

0:30:04.160 --> 0:30:08.479
<v Speaker 2>like I don't like the cross categorization. You know what

0:30:08.480 --> 0:30:11.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean and where and And I also get frustrated

0:30:11.960 --> 0:30:16.720
<v Speaker 2>by folks who it's a two minute Twitter clip and

0:30:16.760 --> 0:30:19.920
<v Speaker 2>they get so angry about it without I'm not asking

0:30:19.920 --> 0:30:21.640
<v Speaker 2>you to go back and watch the little segment, but

0:30:21.800 --> 0:30:24.680
<v Speaker 2>so many people clearly are not even watching the clip.

0:30:25.160 --> 0:30:29.360
<v Speaker 2>They're just seeing the alleged quote from it and responding

0:30:29.400 --> 0:30:32.200
<v Speaker 2>to it. Okay, well we're thirty minutes in and we've

0:30:32.200 --> 0:30:33.520
<v Speaker 2>done one topic. Next.

0:30:34.520 --> 0:30:38.400
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, So in a mediocre NBA draft, there's talks

0:30:38.440 --> 0:30:41.280
<v Speaker 4>that Bronni could go high to, you know, early to

0:30:41.400 --> 0:30:44.480
<v Speaker 4>mid first round. Rich Paul came out and staid that

0:30:44.520 --> 0:30:47.280
<v Speaker 4>Bronni and Lebron are not a package deal, and the

0:30:47.400 --> 0:30:50.320
<v Speaker 4>Lebron won't take a small max or a small amount

0:30:50.320 --> 0:30:51.520
<v Speaker 4>of money to play with Bronnie.

0:30:51.680 --> 0:30:54.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, won't take miss some won't take them minut him. Yeah,

0:30:54.920 --> 0:30:55.280
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry.

0:30:55.600 --> 0:30:57.840
<v Speaker 4>So should at random team just draft Bronnie early and

0:30:57.880 --> 0:30:58.760
<v Speaker 4>call Bron's bluff.

0:31:00.120 --> 0:31:04.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't so that this was a real thought that

0:31:05.080 --> 0:31:07.320
<v Speaker 2>I had a couple of years ago that this could happen.

0:31:07.880 --> 0:31:11.280
<v Speaker 2>If Lebron was like I'm signing with wherever whoever drafts Bronni.

0:31:11.760 --> 0:31:15.440
<v Speaker 2>But that's not going it is. I think it's clear

0:31:15.600 --> 0:31:21.000
<v Speaker 2>enough right now that Bronni it is not super important

0:31:21.000 --> 0:31:23.880
<v Speaker 2>to Bronni that he and bron play together that if

0:31:23.880 --> 0:31:27.120
<v Speaker 2>a team were to use a first round pick on Bronnie,

0:31:28.160 --> 0:31:31.040
<v Speaker 2>lebron would just be like, all right, you know what

0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:33.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's go do it. And I think Rich

0:31:33.720 --> 0:31:40.640
<v Speaker 2>Paul has made that pretty clear, and so I I

0:31:40.840 --> 0:31:45.120
<v Speaker 2>don't think that is on the list of realistic outcomes.

0:31:45.200 --> 0:31:47.840
<v Speaker 2>I do think it makes all of a sudden the

0:31:47.880 --> 0:31:51.920
<v Speaker 2>second round of this year's draft compelling because it's going

0:31:52.080 --> 0:31:55.000
<v Speaker 2>the storyline, right or wrong, is going to be about Bronni.

0:31:55.720 --> 0:31:57.440
<v Speaker 2>Go ahead, ask the follow ups.

0:31:58.200 --> 0:32:00.440
<v Speaker 4>Uh yeah, So if the Lakers signed the le Bron's

0:32:00.520 --> 0:32:03.720
<v Speaker 4>guy jj A and draft his son, wouldn't it be

0:32:03.760 --> 0:32:06.520
<v Speaker 4>pretty shady for the Goat to leave them?

0:32:06.880 --> 0:32:08.960
<v Speaker 2>All right? So I don't know. Listen, he's a free

0:32:09.000 --> 0:32:11.920
<v Speaker 2>agent and to do what he wants. Nobody thinks he's

0:32:12.000 --> 0:32:14.760
<v Speaker 2>leaving the Lakers, even though I hope he leaves the Lakers.

0:32:15.680 --> 0:32:20.440
<v Speaker 2>What I will tell you is, I Demonse, I love

0:32:20.520 --> 0:32:24.480
<v Speaker 2>doing this podcast with you, but I would not be

0:32:24.600 --> 0:32:27.800
<v Speaker 2>happy if they were like, Hey, guess who's the new

0:32:28.440 --> 0:32:34.120
<v Speaker 2>showrunner of First Things First Nick's podcast partner Demonse, I'd

0:32:34.160 --> 0:32:36.560
<v Speaker 2>be like, you know what, I don't know if that's

0:32:36.600 --> 0:32:38.960
<v Speaker 2>the vision we need for this show. I don't know

0:32:39.040 --> 0:32:42.160
<v Speaker 2>that he is necessarily up to the job. The idea

0:32:42.760 --> 0:32:48.800
<v Speaker 2>that because Lebron enjoys podcasting with JJ, that he definitively

0:32:48.880 --> 0:32:52.160
<v Speaker 2>wants JJ to be as head coach. I don't have

0:32:52.200 --> 0:32:55.600
<v Speaker 2>any evidence of that. I do know that when the

0:32:55.680 --> 0:32:59.800
<v Speaker 2>Lakers were pursuing Dan Hurley, Lebron reached out to Dan

0:33:00.760 --> 0:33:04.080
<v Speaker 2>and they were talking. I do know Lebron was all

0:33:04.080 --> 0:33:06.720
<v Speaker 2>in on the idea of Dan Hurley coaching the Lakers.

0:33:07.400 --> 0:33:10.840
<v Speaker 2>I shouldn't say all in, but excited about the idea

0:33:10.840 --> 0:33:17.240
<v Speaker 2>of Dan Hurley coaching the Lakers. And the Lakers front

0:33:17.280 --> 0:33:20.760
<v Speaker 2>office is gonna do Lakers front office things. All right,

0:33:20.800 --> 0:33:22.440
<v Speaker 2>Let's talk Bronnie real quick, go.

0:33:22.400 --> 0:33:23.480
<v Speaker 3>Ahead, all right?

0:33:23.520 --> 0:33:25.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, So the Lakers and the Suns have shown the

0:33:25.280 --> 0:33:27.960
<v Speaker 4>most interest in Bronnie, and Rich Paul is now saying

0:33:27.960 --> 0:33:31.320
<v Speaker 4>the Mavericks, Timberwolves, and the Raptors are also in on him.

0:33:31.560 --> 0:33:34.080
<v Speaker 4>Out of all these teams with ties with Bronnie, which

0:33:34.120 --> 0:33:36.120
<v Speaker 4>do you think would be the most likely to draft him.

0:33:36.680 --> 0:33:38.600
<v Speaker 4>Which do you think will be the best landing spot

0:33:38.640 --> 0:33:41.400
<v Speaker 4>for his development, and which would you think will be

0:33:41.480 --> 0:33:42.080
<v Speaker 4>the most fun.

0:33:44.040 --> 0:33:47.280
<v Speaker 2>I think the most fun would be the maps. I

0:33:47.320 --> 0:33:50.960
<v Speaker 2>think that would be the most fun because I think

0:33:51.000 --> 0:33:56.360
<v Speaker 2>it would be really cool to see. And again, Bronnie's

0:33:56.400 --> 0:33:58.680
<v Speaker 2>gonna be a second round pick that's probably gonna spend

0:33:58.680 --> 0:34:02.200
<v Speaker 2>most of the year in the G League, right, But

0:34:02.320 --> 0:34:05.400
<v Speaker 2>I think it would be really cool and a nice

0:34:05.680 --> 0:34:12.600
<v Speaker 2>kind of final chapter to Kyrie getting to do the

0:34:12.760 --> 0:34:17.960
<v Speaker 2>mentorship teach you how to win stuff for Bronni that

0:34:18.080 --> 0:34:21.959
<v Speaker 2>lebron tried to do for Kyrie that Kyrie pushed back

0:34:22.000 --> 0:34:25.040
<v Speaker 2>against at the end, because I think Kyrie, I want

0:34:25.040 --> 0:34:26.800
<v Speaker 2>to say something about Kyrie here. I know it's supposed

0:34:26.800 --> 0:34:30.080
<v Speaker 2>to be about Bronni. Listen, He's probably gonna go to

0:34:30.080 --> 0:34:32.839
<v Speaker 2>the Lakers at fifty five. It just seems like that's

0:34:32.880 --> 0:34:36.720
<v Speaker 2>what's gonna happen. And I don't think he is yet

0:34:37.120 --> 0:34:40.600
<v Speaker 2>a good enough prospect to where we should spend a

0:34:40.680 --> 0:34:43.200
<v Speaker 2>ton of time talking about the best thing for his development.

0:34:43.480 --> 0:34:47.520
<v Speaker 2>He is a wildly impressive young man. As someone who

0:34:47.560 --> 0:34:50.759
<v Speaker 2>has a daughter his exact age, he is the way

0:34:50.840 --> 0:34:54.880
<v Speaker 2>he has handled all of this, this level of fame,

0:34:55.360 --> 0:34:58.279
<v Speaker 2>this level of money, and I don't just mean his

0:34:58.440 --> 0:35:01.759
<v Speaker 2>dad's money, I mean now his own money, because he's

0:35:01.800 --> 0:35:04.840
<v Speaker 2>got the Caleb Williams level in il deal at you, like,

0:35:05.640 --> 0:35:08.279
<v Speaker 2>his own money as an adult that he can do

0:35:08.320 --> 0:35:12.399
<v Speaker 2>anything with. Like, I don't think it is demons. You're

0:35:12.400 --> 0:35:14.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna laugh here and you're gonna say I'm being unfair.

0:35:14.840 --> 0:35:19.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it is ridiculous to say he has,

0:35:19.800 --> 0:35:24.759
<v Speaker 2>in three months out of college, shown more maturity than

0:35:24.800 --> 0:35:28.200
<v Speaker 2>I've seen from LaMelo Ball at any moment of his career.

0:35:28.600 --> 0:35:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Like I am the I knew you so right, I

0:35:35.239 --> 0:35:37.360
<v Speaker 2>knew you were gonna say that. I just can't. I

0:35:38.320 --> 0:35:41.680
<v Speaker 2>can't watch any more of these videos Lamello peeling. Somebody

0:35:41.719 --> 0:35:45.680
<v Speaker 2>tweeted once LaMelo acts like a twelve year old who

0:35:45.719 --> 0:35:48.879
<v Speaker 2>got one hundred million dollars, and it's like, yeah, that's

0:35:48.920 --> 0:35:52.319
<v Speaker 2>exactly right. You guy's got a go karts on his roof.

0:35:52.560 --> 0:35:56.120
<v Speaker 2>He's got every like every car you would see. I

0:35:56.280 --> 0:36:00.960
<v Speaker 2>think Lamello picked his vehicles by the cars that are

0:36:01.000 --> 0:36:04.399
<v Speaker 2>available in Grand Theft Auto. It's like, oh that one,

0:36:04.640 --> 0:36:07.040
<v Speaker 2>I want that one, and then that one and then

0:36:07.040 --> 0:36:09.960
<v Speaker 2>that one. So again, maybe I'm being unfair, just I

0:36:09.960 --> 0:36:13.319
<v Speaker 2>think I am impressed by Bronnie the young man. And

0:36:13.360 --> 0:36:17.640
<v Speaker 2>I also think that we people need to remember when

0:36:17.640 --> 0:36:22.560
<v Speaker 2>you look at his college stats, that the guy had

0:36:22.640 --> 0:36:27.719
<v Speaker 2>cardiac arrest and wasn't able to train for months, and

0:36:27.760 --> 0:36:30.880
<v Speaker 2>then the whole thing was thrown off. And so I

0:36:30.880 --> 0:36:34.640
<v Speaker 2>think he's better than his college stats suggest, but it does.

0:36:34.800 --> 0:36:39.360
<v Speaker 2>But he's six to two. So that's the biggest concern

0:36:39.440 --> 0:36:41.840
<v Speaker 2>I have with Bronnie is his height. And so, but

0:36:42.520 --> 0:36:44.600
<v Speaker 2>to go back to the Kyrie thing, I was trying

0:36:44.600 --> 0:36:45.880
<v Speaker 2>to say, and then we're not going to do the

0:36:45.920 --> 0:36:48.080
<v Speaker 2>quarterback contracts thing because I just don't know how to

0:36:48.120 --> 0:36:55.000
<v Speaker 2>stay on the time when Kyrie was playing great basketball

0:36:56.640 --> 0:36:59.759
<v Speaker 2>a large part and you'll like this, de Monsa, because

0:36:59.800 --> 0:37:01.759
<v Speaker 2>you all always thought I was too hard on Kyrie.

0:37:02.080 --> 0:37:05.879
<v Speaker 2>When Kyrie was playing really good basketball, maybe not great,

0:37:05.880 --> 0:37:10.480
<v Speaker 2>but really good basketball. When he was with Brooklyn, a

0:37:10.560 --> 0:37:15.279
<v Speaker 2>large part of the conversation around him was negative, non

0:37:15.360 --> 0:37:20.680
<v Speaker 2>basketball related right that the off the court stuff, no

0:37:20.719 --> 0:37:24.200
<v Speaker 2>matter how well he played, the off the court stuff

0:37:24.400 --> 0:37:27.879
<v Speaker 2>pulled down the discussion around him. I believe fairly some

0:37:27.880 --> 0:37:32.600
<v Speaker 2>people believe unfairly but it is what it is. What

0:37:33.080 --> 0:37:36.360
<v Speaker 2>is only fair is if that can work in the

0:37:36.400 --> 0:37:41.040
<v Speaker 2>other direction as well. Kyrie just had a really rough finals,

0:37:42.320 --> 0:37:46.680
<v Speaker 2>and the off the court stuff was so mature and

0:37:46.800 --> 0:37:51.000
<v Speaker 2>so self aware and showed a real leadership that it

0:37:51.040 --> 0:37:54.920
<v Speaker 2>should pull up the conversation a bit as well. If

0:37:54.960 --> 0:37:58.040
<v Speaker 2>when he was playing excellent, the off the court nonsense

0:37:58.080 --> 0:38:01.239
<v Speaker 2>could pull down how we looked at him. Then when

0:38:01.239 --> 0:38:04.160
<v Speaker 2>he's when he struggled in the finals, which he just did.

0:38:04.200 --> 0:38:06.919
<v Speaker 2>He had one excellent game, one okay game in three

0:38:07.000 --> 0:38:10.960
<v Speaker 2>really tough games, but he handled it all. And if

0:38:11.400 --> 0:38:14.160
<v Speaker 2>some of the quotes, if you read them about what

0:38:14.200 --> 0:38:17.240
<v Speaker 2>he was saying about Boston during the series, they read weird.

0:38:17.600 --> 0:38:20.920
<v Speaker 2>But if you watched the press conference, it was so

0:38:21.239 --> 0:38:26.880
<v Speaker 2>thoughtful and mature and all of it. Credit must be given.

0:38:27.440 --> 0:38:30.719
<v Speaker 2>And so to a point to where now I the

0:38:30.800 --> 0:38:33.879
<v Speaker 2>reason I'm saying Dallas for Bronni is because I think

0:38:33.920 --> 0:38:38.560
<v Speaker 2>Kyrie would be a cool, you know, uncle figure with

0:38:38.640 --> 0:38:41.640
<v Speaker 2>Bronni is like, hey, here's how to go about it, Like,

0:38:42.239 --> 0:38:45.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, don't have your dad telling you what to do,

0:38:45.239 --> 0:38:47.680
<v Speaker 2>but have a guy you've known since you were a

0:38:47.719 --> 0:38:50.520
<v Speaker 2>little kid, who Now, I think that would be to me,

0:38:51.120 --> 0:38:53.560
<v Speaker 2>that would be the coolest thing. And obviously Nico Harrison,

0:38:53.560 --> 0:38:56.920
<v Speaker 2>who runs the team, has a great relationship with the family.

0:38:57.239 --> 0:38:59.600
<v Speaker 2>All Right, I we do not have a show on

0:38:59.680 --> 0:39:02.520
<v Speaker 2>two day because I'm gonna be in Vegas for the

0:39:02.520 --> 0:39:06.080
<v Speaker 2>World Series of Poker. We discuss that and play Nick

0:39:06.120 --> 0:39:14.680
<v Speaker 2>Stramas next. What's Right? All right, welcome back in What's

0:39:14.760 --> 0:39:16.680
<v Speaker 2>Right with Nick? Right real quick, before we get to

0:39:16.719 --> 0:39:21.400
<v Speaker 2>the poker stuff. I've talked a lot about how I think.

0:39:21.680 --> 0:39:25.160
<v Speaker 2>Have I talked to Monday on this pod about the

0:39:25.200 --> 0:39:31.440
<v Speaker 2>Twitter monetization and the money you get I think the

0:39:32.880 --> 0:39:36.879
<v Speaker 2>bit yes, okay, that's what I thought. So that has

0:39:36.960 --> 0:39:39.759
<v Speaker 2>created a lot of oh yeah, because we talked about

0:39:39.760 --> 0:39:43.120
<v Speaker 2>the fake videos of like look this racist ash on

0:39:43.160 --> 0:39:45.520
<v Speaker 2>an airplane and it's like those are bad. Those are

0:39:45.560 --> 0:39:52.240
<v Speaker 2>literally just that's a skit, and the yeah, like right exactly.

0:39:53.520 --> 0:39:59.600
<v Speaker 2>There is a harmless version of that same grift, and

0:39:59.640 --> 0:40:06.560
<v Speaker 2>that is is the anonymous football and basketball aggregator accounts

0:40:07.000 --> 0:40:12.960
<v Speaker 2>who put out intentionally awful takes just to get dunked

0:40:13.000 --> 0:40:19.680
<v Speaker 2>on for the interaction so mL for underscore mL Football,

0:40:19.920 --> 0:40:25.720
<v Speaker 2>which has, let me check, two hundred thousand followers. Okay,

0:40:25.760 --> 0:40:29.359
<v Speaker 2>that's fine. I don't care. Just tweeted this out all

0:40:29.480 --> 0:40:36.640
<v Speaker 2>Caps Hall of Famer vikings dB. Harrison Smith is one

0:40:36.680 --> 0:40:40.360
<v Speaker 2>of the greatest safeties of all time and a surefire

0:40:40.520 --> 0:40:49.360
<v Speaker 2>Hall of Famer. And it's just a totally intentionally wrong take,

0:40:50.480 --> 0:40:54.400
<v Speaker 2>so people will dunk on it to make money. It

0:40:54.560 --> 0:41:00.160
<v Speaker 2>is such a harmless grift. Now it does make the

0:41:00.360 --> 0:41:03.360
<v Speaker 2>Twitter less usable because so many people are onto the

0:41:03.400 --> 0:41:07.759
<v Speaker 2>same grift. But and again, Harrison Smith is a good

0:41:07.800 --> 0:41:12.600
<v Speaker 2>player and has been a good player for a long time. No,

0:41:12.960 --> 0:41:16.880
<v Speaker 2>I won't, I I not if you know, I just can't.

0:41:16.880 --> 0:41:20.560
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I mean there is or anything like that.

0:41:20.800 --> 0:41:24.560
<v Speaker 2>No, I understand you don't mean like actually harming society.

0:41:25.120 --> 0:41:30.000
<v Speaker 2>But if you if you just started tweeting the worst takes,

0:41:30.640 --> 0:41:32.759
<v Speaker 2>there has to be a picture associated with it. For

0:41:32.840 --> 0:41:36.200
<v Speaker 2>the algorithm. The thing people love more than anything on

0:41:36.280 --> 0:41:39.799
<v Speaker 2>these is to pick a mediocre player who's hitting free

0:41:39.840 --> 0:41:44.840
<v Speaker 2>agency and call it a sweepstakes, just so that people

0:41:44.920 --> 0:41:52.160
<v Speaker 2>dunk on it. That nobody loves the oh Man the

0:41:52.760 --> 0:41:57.319
<v Speaker 2>Winyon Gabriel sweep Steaks starts July one at midnight, and

0:41:57.320 --> 0:42:01.400
<v Speaker 2>people are like, oh, this guy gets on sweepstakes. Uh.

0:42:01.560 --> 0:42:07.600
<v Speaker 2>The and so I I just this is It's not

0:42:07.840 --> 0:42:12.080
<v Speaker 2>the worst thing Elon Musk has ever done, but it's

0:42:13.320 --> 0:42:17.680
<v Speaker 2>it's on the first page of them, just him incentivizing

0:42:17.960 --> 0:42:23.040
<v Speaker 2>people to use Twitter for the dumbest takes possible because

0:42:23.080 --> 0:42:26.960
<v Speaker 2>they want to get dunked on uh, and then also

0:42:27.120 --> 0:42:31.360
<v Speaker 2>monetizing like I didn't even totally follow it, but that

0:42:32.920 --> 0:42:38.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that. I guess kind of cute white

0:42:38.160 --> 0:42:42.919
<v Speaker 2>girl that was cooking and said the N word and

0:42:43.000 --> 0:42:45.600
<v Speaker 2>then all of a sudden is just now doing like

0:42:46.120 --> 0:42:49.439
<v Speaker 2>first person videos like hey, let me tell you what's

0:42:49.440 --> 0:42:53.440
<v Speaker 2>wrong with liberals. I mean, no, she exactly, she doesn't.

0:42:53.520 --> 0:42:57.000
<v Speaker 2>She doesn't have it. Lady, you don't have the juice.

0:42:57.600 --> 0:43:00.000
<v Speaker 2>You think you have the juice. You don't have the juice.

0:43:00.760 --> 0:43:04.360
<v Speaker 2>And but she's like, oh, I just made three hundred bucks,

0:43:04.520 --> 0:43:08.160
<v Speaker 2>let me post another one from my CRV. It's like, lady,

0:43:08.200 --> 0:43:13.160
<v Speaker 2>get out of here. I know, I know a Southern

0:43:13.239 --> 0:43:16.160
<v Speaker 2>sorority racist died in the wall when I see one,

0:43:16.600 --> 0:43:19.879
<v Speaker 2>and you're not her. You might be friends with them,

0:43:20.160 --> 0:43:23.480
<v Speaker 2>but you don't have it. You're you're you don't have

0:43:23.600 --> 0:43:27.400
<v Speaker 2>it coursing through your veins the way you need. But

0:43:27.560 --> 0:43:30.280
<v Speaker 2>she thinks she's gonna I think she thinks she's gonna

0:43:30.280 --> 0:43:33.759
<v Speaker 2>get a job. Uh you know, it's like Whitlock's co

0:43:33.880 --> 0:43:37.840
<v Speaker 2>host or something like. She is really trying to I

0:43:37.960 --> 0:43:41.840
<v Speaker 2>just made that up. The I mean, I think she

0:43:41.960 --> 0:43:46.239
<v Speaker 2>thinks it's gonna be a career and instead it's just

0:43:46.560 --> 0:43:52.279
<v Speaker 2>going to be oh you remember that girl and briefly

0:43:52.880 --> 0:43:56.640
<v Speaker 2>like But so it's all right, it's all fruit of

0:43:56.680 --> 0:44:00.239
<v Speaker 2>the same poisonous tree. All right, let's talk poker, go ahead.

0:44:00.800 --> 0:44:02.799
<v Speaker 4>All right, So you are heading back to the World

0:44:02.920 --> 0:44:05.160
<v Speaker 4>Series of Poker next week, So that means that we

0:44:05.239 --> 0:44:06.799
<v Speaker 4>won't have a pod and you'll get to.

0:44:06.719 --> 0:44:07.600
<v Speaker 3>Play a poker.

0:44:08.440 --> 0:44:10.440
<v Speaker 4>So, without giving away too much of your strategy, what

0:44:10.520 --> 0:44:11.920
<v Speaker 4>is what's your playing for this time?

0:44:11.960 --> 0:44:13.160
<v Speaker 3>Are you going to do anything differently?

0:44:15.040 --> 0:44:19.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, so I'm gonna play. So I fly to Vegas

0:44:19.480 --> 0:44:25.000
<v Speaker 2>Friday night, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. There are three day ones

0:44:25.040 --> 0:44:28.759
<v Speaker 2>of the Millionaire Maker Tournament. It's fifteen hundred dollars buy in.

0:44:29.800 --> 0:44:32.840
<v Speaker 2>You can buy in a second time if you bust

0:44:32.880 --> 0:44:36.480
<v Speaker 2>out on any individual flight of day one, and then

0:44:36.640 --> 0:44:41.080
<v Speaker 2>Day two is Monday three, Tuesday four, Wednesday. It would

0:44:41.080 --> 0:44:43.680
<v Speaker 2>be a very long tournament. If I were at a

0:44:43.719 --> 0:44:47.000
<v Speaker 2>final table at that's Thursday, in which case I'm not

0:44:47.120 --> 0:44:49.640
<v Speaker 2>doing the pod and I'm not doing the TV show.

0:44:49.719 --> 0:44:52.760
<v Speaker 2>But that means I've already locked up like a couple

0:44:52.920 --> 0:44:55.799
<v Speaker 2>hundred thousand dollars. If I make the final table of this,

0:44:56.160 --> 0:44:59.240
<v Speaker 2>what will be a massive, like probably five six thousand

0:44:59.280 --> 0:45:01.800
<v Speaker 2>person tournament. So that'd be one of those good problems.

0:45:02.239 --> 0:45:07.040
<v Speaker 2>So I have a pretty I don't have like a

0:45:07.239 --> 0:45:10.280
<v Speaker 2>unique strategy. It's a tournament poker is different than cash

0:45:10.400 --> 0:45:13.480
<v Speaker 2>game poker. But what I will say is, like I

0:45:13.520 --> 0:45:19.160
<v Speaker 2>think most people, the unique thing about tournaments where there's

0:45:19.280 --> 0:45:24.160
<v Speaker 2>multiple day ones and there's a rebuy is if you

0:45:24.440 --> 0:45:31.080
<v Speaker 2>have the money to afford multiple entries, you're incentivized to

0:45:31.239 --> 0:45:38.160
<v Speaker 2>play very aggressive on your first buy in of the

0:45:38.320 --> 0:45:42.640
<v Speaker 2>day because if you bust out, you can buy in again,

0:45:43.120 --> 0:45:45.839
<v Speaker 2>and if you don't, then you can create a big

0:45:45.920 --> 0:45:49.839
<v Speaker 2>chip stack and kind of leverage people. I So here

0:45:49.960 --> 0:45:51.840
<v Speaker 2>is what I think I'm going to do and the

0:45:51.880 --> 0:45:53.840
<v Speaker 2>reason I want. And then if I don't do well

0:45:53.880 --> 0:45:57.200
<v Speaker 2>on Saturday and Sunday of that, there's another tournament. There's

0:45:57.239 --> 0:45:59.440
<v Speaker 2>a three thousand dollars no limit tournament that I might

0:45:59.440 --> 0:46:02.000
<v Speaker 2>play on one or I might do what I really

0:46:02.000 --> 0:46:04.040
<v Speaker 2>want to do, which I think there's a twenty five

0:46:04.120 --> 0:46:08.680
<v Speaker 2>hundred dollars mixed game tournament where it's a round of

0:46:08.719 --> 0:46:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Omaha eight or better and stud eight or better, and

0:46:11.560 --> 0:46:13.640
<v Speaker 2>it'll be me and a bunch of old guys, mostly

0:46:13.640 --> 0:46:15.920
<v Speaker 2>old guys because that's more old people play those games.

0:46:15.920 --> 0:46:18.440
<v Speaker 2>But I love that game. I play that. There's that

0:46:18.600 --> 0:46:21.759
<v Speaker 2>exact game exists at parks and right outside Philly, and

0:46:21.800 --> 0:46:24.840
<v Speaker 2>I play it. So I'm gonna do that. I have

0:46:24.880 --> 0:46:27.480
<v Speaker 2>a set goal that I want to play craft with

0:46:27.480 --> 0:46:32.480
<v Speaker 2>my buddy Nick Shulman. I also probably will see how

0:46:32.600 --> 0:46:34.839
<v Speaker 2>muth he just came in fourth. He should have won

0:46:34.880 --> 0:46:37.279
<v Speaker 2>this tournament. He should have got Embracelet eighteen. The other day

0:46:37.320 --> 0:46:39.160
<v Speaker 2>he came in fourth. I was up till two in

0:46:39.200 --> 0:46:45.120
<v Speaker 2>the morning while sweating him. And I also should hopefully

0:46:45.480 --> 0:46:48.200
<v Speaker 2>be a part, if you're a poker Go subscriber, be

0:46:48.280 --> 0:46:50.880
<v Speaker 2>a part of some of the broadcasts of one of

0:46:50.920 --> 0:46:54.440
<v Speaker 2>the tournaments when I'm not playing. It also demands a

0:46:54.800 --> 0:47:00.120
<v Speaker 2>is getting to Vegas on Friday night and planning to

0:47:00.239 --> 0:47:06.280
<v Speaker 2>leave on Wednesday is too long in Vegas. Objectively speaking,

0:47:06.800 --> 0:47:11.520
<v Speaker 2>it's too long to be in Vegas. And so I am,

0:47:12.000 --> 0:47:17.080
<v Speaker 2>I am going to have to I. When I let me,

0:47:17.120 --> 0:47:20.439
<v Speaker 2>I'll tell you something funny that you'll laugh about. Your

0:47:20.440 --> 0:47:24.520
<v Speaker 2>mom is gonna join me, okay, and the maybe I

0:47:24.520 --> 0:47:27.799
<v Speaker 2>shouldn't say in a surprise to no one, as is

0:47:27.840 --> 0:47:32.640
<v Speaker 2>your auntie Nicole. Just they were just a package deal

0:47:33.680 --> 0:47:38.160
<v Speaker 2>and so, uh, but I didn't know that initially. Okay.

0:47:38.400 --> 0:47:40.480
<v Speaker 2>I thought I was gonna be out there alone for

0:47:40.560 --> 0:47:45.719
<v Speaker 2>five days. But Joe Black uh is out there all

0:47:45.760 --> 0:47:49.279
<v Speaker 2>World Series playing in these tournaments. And so when Joe

0:47:49.280 --> 0:47:51.040
<v Speaker 2>had been trying to get me to come out to

0:47:51.040 --> 0:47:53.120
<v Speaker 2>play in some tournaments, and I looked at the TV

0:47:53.239 --> 0:47:55.480
<v Speaker 2>schedule and I was like, oh, if there's not game

0:47:55.560 --> 0:47:58.640
<v Speaker 2>seven of the finals were off TV Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday

0:47:58.640 --> 0:48:00.239
<v Speaker 2>because the Euros are on FS one one.

0:48:01.080 --> 0:48:01.200
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:48:01.719 --> 0:48:03.799
<v Speaker 2>I was like, I could come out and I think

0:48:03.800 --> 0:48:05.719
<v Speaker 2>your mom was coming. He's like, all right, perfect. I

0:48:05.760 --> 0:48:08.960
<v Speaker 2>was like, I this is so embarrassing, but it's true.

0:48:09.360 --> 0:48:11.040
<v Speaker 2>I said to Joe. I was like, all right, if

0:48:11.080 --> 0:48:15.279
<v Speaker 2>I go, I was like, you're I want you to

0:48:15.320 --> 0:48:19.799
<v Speaker 2>hold my money and He's like, huh, I'm like, if

0:48:19.840 --> 0:48:25.799
<v Speaker 2>I go and I'm by myself, I want you to

0:48:26.000 --> 0:48:30.000
<v Speaker 2>hold on to my money, and he's like, what are

0:48:30.080 --> 0:48:33.480
<v Speaker 2>you talking about? I was like, man, life's about knowing

0:48:33.520 --> 0:48:39.080
<v Speaker 2>your strengths and weaknesses. And me alone in the area

0:48:39.560 --> 0:48:46.239
<v Speaker 2>for five days is not a recipe for financial success.

0:48:46.680 --> 0:48:52.480
<v Speaker 2>I need to have the added barrier of embarrassment.

0:48:51.640 --> 0:48:54.560
<v Speaker 3>Of buddy, you need more money.

0:48:54.640 --> 0:48:55.000
<v Speaker 2>What do you?

0:48:55.440 --> 0:48:55.719
<v Speaker 3>What do you?

0:48:55.840 --> 0:48:56.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:48:56.120 --> 0:48:56.480
<v Speaker 3>What do you?

0:48:56.719 --> 0:49:00.920
<v Speaker 2>What do you? Exactly right? I need the added the

0:49:01.719 --> 0:49:05.520
<v Speaker 2>the the, because I don't. Here's the thing. I I

0:49:05.560 --> 0:49:10.480
<v Speaker 2>don't gamble. I want to say this bell sound like

0:49:10.520 --> 0:49:16.600
<v Speaker 2>a jerk, but I just be honest. I gamble. I

0:49:16.640 --> 0:49:23.040
<v Speaker 2>don't gamble big enough dollars for it to be like

0:49:24.040 --> 0:49:27.840
<v Speaker 2>problematic given the amount of dollars I have access to. Okay,

0:49:28.840 --> 0:49:32.400
<v Speaker 2>but I do gamble. You know, a few thousand dollars

0:49:32.400 --> 0:49:34.359
<v Speaker 2>here and there, right, But I'm not one of those people.

0:49:34.400 --> 0:49:36.799
<v Speaker 2>There are people who make the exact amount of money

0:49:36.880 --> 0:49:40.440
<v Speaker 2>I make that are playing ten thousand dollars hands of blackjack,

0:49:40.719 --> 0:49:42.640
<v Speaker 2>and that can get I don't that can get away

0:49:42.680 --> 0:49:45.680
<v Speaker 2>from you real fast, Like even if you have you know,

0:49:46.080 --> 0:49:48.560
<v Speaker 2>I can't get away from you real fast to where

0:49:48.600 --> 0:49:50.839
<v Speaker 2>you're in. Like all of a sudden, I took out

0:49:50.840 --> 0:49:54.000
<v Speaker 2>a marker from the Aria for eighty thousand dollars that

0:49:54.080 --> 0:49:55.600
<v Speaker 2>I owe the like. That's I don't care how much

0:49:55.640 --> 0:49:57.759
<v Speaker 2>money you have. That's that can be a problem. I

0:49:57.800 --> 0:50:02.719
<v Speaker 2>don't gamble like that, but I do gamble in a

0:50:02.760 --> 0:50:07.080
<v Speaker 2>way that it's in play that whatever I had mentally

0:50:07.120 --> 0:50:11.680
<v Speaker 2>budgeted for these five days could be gone in the

0:50:11.680 --> 0:50:15.520
<v Speaker 2>first five hours. If I don't have some guardrails, I

0:50:15.680 --> 0:50:19.320
<v Speaker 2>can tilt it off in either direction. So your mom

0:50:19.400 --> 0:50:22.600
<v Speaker 2>has always been the guardrails for me since we've been together.

0:50:22.880 --> 0:50:25.279
<v Speaker 2>But when I thought she wasn't coming, I had to

0:50:25.360 --> 0:50:27.680
<v Speaker 2>ask my buddy if he would be willing to hold

0:50:27.719 --> 0:50:29.920
<v Speaker 2>my money. I don't think he was comfortable with it,

0:50:30.040 --> 0:50:31.920
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, pal, you just have to happen.

0:50:32.960 --> 0:50:35.399
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he loved the idea of it. All right,

0:50:35.920 --> 0:50:38.760
<v Speaker 2>I'll keep everyone updated on social media how I'm doing.

0:50:39.000 --> 0:50:41.000
<v Speaker 2>And if you're a Poker Go subscriber, you should be

0:50:41.040 --> 0:50:43.719
<v Speaker 2>able to hear me on some of the broadcasts. All right,

0:50:43.840 --> 0:50:45.080
<v Speaker 2>let's do the game.

0:50:46.600 --> 0:50:48.839
<v Speaker 4>All right, it's time for Nixtra Damis. I think we're

0:50:48.840 --> 0:50:50.920
<v Speaker 4>probably gonna have some music that's gonna kick in here

0:50:50.960 --> 0:50:54.120
<v Speaker 4>in a second. Oh beautiful, Oh wise, Nixtra Damis the

0:50:54.200 --> 0:50:57.239
<v Speaker 4>common folk are starting to doubt your prophetic powers after

0:50:57.239 --> 0:51:00.719
<v Speaker 4>you predicted a MAVs title by them that you were

0:51:00.760 --> 0:51:05.320
<v Speaker 4>the soussayer sport and sway the non believers with that graphic.

0:51:05.840 --> 0:51:10.920
<v Speaker 4>Your astronomy talents have been compared to Galileo. Uh, Galileo, Galileo,

0:51:11.000 --> 0:51:13.920
<v Speaker 4>he was nearly Galileo. Yeah, he was burned at the steak,

0:51:14.320 --> 0:51:18.239
<v Speaker 4>and you have burning hot jokes. Yeah, nearly nearly burned

0:51:18.239 --> 0:51:20.879
<v Speaker 4>at the steak. All right, you're an expert at you're

0:51:20.880 --> 0:51:23.480
<v Speaker 4>an expert at tracking star movement in the NBA off

0:51:23.480 --> 0:51:27.680
<v Speaker 4>scene is here, Nick stredamis which star will be it

0:51:27.800 --> 0:51:32.759
<v Speaker 4>will shift in the NBA skuys Jesus Christ, that's hard, Jesus.

0:51:32.680 --> 0:51:35.279
<v Speaker 2>There's a long one. That's all right.

0:51:35.280 --> 0:51:37.120
<v Speaker 3>I read it like fifteen times.

0:51:37.120 --> 0:51:44.719
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I know, that's okay. So the Calves in the

0:51:44.800 --> 0:51:51.200
<v Speaker 2>heat both have two stars ish, neither of whom I think.

0:51:51.480 --> 0:51:54.040
<v Speaker 2>I think both teams the stars don't want to be

0:51:54.080 --> 0:52:00.239
<v Speaker 2>together anymore so. Donovan Mitchell or Darius Garland one of

0:52:00.280 --> 0:52:06.479
<v Speaker 2>them is on the move, I think, and Trey Young

0:52:06.760 --> 0:52:09.239
<v Speaker 2>or de Jonte Murray one of them is on the move.

0:52:09.480 --> 0:52:12.920
<v Speaker 2>I think both of those duos are getting split up

0:52:12.960 --> 0:52:16.040
<v Speaker 2>this offseason. That's what I think, and I just so,

0:52:16.120 --> 0:52:18.279
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure which, but I think both of those

0:52:18.320 --> 0:52:20.480
<v Speaker 2>teams one of those guys is on the move.

0:52:20.640 --> 0:52:26.040
<v Speaker 4>Next, the ancient calendars dictate the NBA drafts first round

0:52:26.120 --> 0:52:28.719
<v Speaker 4>will have occurred by our next show. There is no

0:52:28.840 --> 0:52:32.560
<v Speaker 4>clear star in the class, or is there? Nick sha Damis,

0:52:32.640 --> 0:52:35.200
<v Speaker 4>look into the cosmos and find me one real star.

0:52:37.160 --> 0:52:39.919
<v Speaker 2>I don't listen. I don't think there's a star. I don't.

0:52:40.000 --> 0:52:43.440
<v Speaker 2>I can't do that, but I like, I know that

0:52:43.480 --> 0:52:48.759
<v Speaker 2>people like Reed Shepherd, the Kentucky kid. His height scares me.

0:52:49.200 --> 0:52:52.560
<v Speaker 2>He's an unbelievable shooter and unbelievable shooter, but he's six

0:52:52.600 --> 0:52:56.520
<v Speaker 2>to one, so that worries me. I like Dalton Connect

0:52:56.760 --> 0:53:00.360
<v Speaker 2>and almost as good shooter, the kid from Tennis, but

0:53:00.400 --> 0:53:03.000
<v Speaker 2>he's six ' five. So I don't think you're gonna

0:53:03.000 --> 0:53:05.360
<v Speaker 2>get you know, you might get a random, you know,

0:53:05.480 --> 0:53:09.080
<v Speaker 2>foreign star in this draft, but this is not a

0:53:09.120 --> 0:53:11.880
<v Speaker 2>top heavy draft at all. But I think Dalton Connect

0:53:12.160 --> 0:53:14.839
<v Speaker 2>could be a rotation player on an excellent team.

0:53:15.000 --> 0:53:19.000
<v Speaker 4>Next, the tea leaves are saying that NBA coach and

0:53:19.080 --> 0:53:22.319
<v Speaker 4>noted film critic Joe Missoula has gone from the hot

0:53:22.320 --> 0:53:26.239
<v Speaker 4>seat to extension talks, but not so fast. Let's not

0:53:26.320 --> 0:53:30.000
<v Speaker 4>forget the championship. Coaches don't last. Just ask Frank Vogel

0:53:30.400 --> 0:53:34.200
<v Speaker 4>Bud and Nick Nurse, Nick Sha Damis well, extending Joe

0:53:34.320 --> 0:53:36.000
<v Speaker 4>Mizzoula proved to be a mistake.

0:53:37.400 --> 0:53:39.879
<v Speaker 2>No, it won't be. I gotta give him credit. Man,

0:53:40.600 --> 0:53:44.319
<v Speaker 2>his team loves him. They were so dialed in defensively,

0:53:44.920 --> 0:53:49.840
<v Speaker 2>and as often happens in sports, all your idiosyncrasies and

0:53:49.840 --> 0:53:52.719
<v Speaker 2>out of these become charming when you win. So now

0:53:52.760 --> 0:53:55.040
<v Speaker 2>all the weirdness about him is just like, oh, that's

0:53:55.080 --> 0:53:57.279
<v Speaker 2>what makes him great. And so no, I give the

0:53:57.280 --> 0:53:59.560
<v Speaker 2>guy credit. I was a critic of his I was

0:53:59.560 --> 0:54:05.919
<v Speaker 2>skeptic of his. The that team was connected, dialed in great, defensively,

0:54:06.239 --> 0:54:10.120
<v Speaker 2>took smart shots. So no, I think he's a good coach.

0:54:10.440 --> 0:54:13.719
<v Speaker 2>I was wrong on Joe Missoula, and so I give

0:54:13.800 --> 0:54:15.520
<v Speaker 2>him a lot of credit, A lot of credit.

0:54:16.239 --> 0:54:20.360
<v Speaker 4>All right, next, h nick Ster Damas, our show is

0:54:20.400 --> 0:54:25.319
<v Speaker 4>abided by one immutable law, no baseball. But some have

0:54:25.400 --> 0:54:29.799
<v Speaker 4>observed hearsay in your recent interest in Kansas City Royals. Uh,

0:54:30.000 --> 0:54:32.560
<v Speaker 4>Knickster Damas, will Dick right uphold his own rules.

0:54:33.920 --> 0:54:37.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, the Royals are making it easier for me. Lose

0:54:37.719 --> 0:54:40.479
<v Speaker 2>too straight to the damn Oakland A's. What are you doing?

0:54:41.080 --> 0:54:43.560
<v Speaker 2>I get it. You lose the series to the Yankees. Fine,

0:54:43.600 --> 0:54:46.040
<v Speaker 2>you lose the series to the Dodgers. Whatever, You're playing

0:54:46.040 --> 0:54:48.239
<v Speaker 2>the two best teams in baseball. You lose too straight

0:54:48.280 --> 0:54:52.120
<v Speaker 2>to the Oakland A's. They need to get it together.

0:54:52.280 --> 0:54:55.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm very disappointed in the royals last two games, last one.

0:54:56.480 --> 0:54:59.080
<v Speaker 4>The next time we meet, the Stanley Cup Final will

0:54:59.080 --> 0:55:02.320
<v Speaker 4>be settled. At the start of the championship. I correctly

0:55:02.400 --> 0:55:06.560
<v Speaker 4>named one team, netting me half of the reward money. Uh, Nick, sure, damas,

0:55:06.719 --> 0:55:08.960
<v Speaker 4>When will Nick Wright send me my fifty bucks?

0:55:09.840 --> 0:55:11.080
<v Speaker 3>How'd you guys know you didn't send it?

0:55:12.760 --> 0:55:14.839
<v Speaker 2>I mean they were right, though they actually were right

0:55:15.520 --> 0:55:19.120
<v Speaker 2>that I didn't send it. Uh, they're correct. I forgot

0:55:19.160 --> 0:55:19.640
<v Speaker 2>to do that.

0:55:20.320 --> 0:55:21.280
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

0:55:21.360 --> 0:55:24.640
<v Speaker 2>What I should do is just overnight you those same

0:55:24.719 --> 0:55:27.759
<v Speaker 2>exact five ten dollars bills you sent me. That's what

0:55:27.800 --> 0:55:31.560
<v Speaker 2>I should do. That's that's what I should do. But

0:55:31.600 --> 0:55:35.759
<v Speaker 2>I would I wouldn't. You're right, I do know. I'm

0:55:35.800 --> 0:55:36.480
<v Speaker 2>being serious?

0:55:37.280 --> 0:55:37.640
<v Speaker 3>All right?

0:55:37.719 --> 0:55:44.080
<v Speaker 2>We have demanse, we have an unbelievable f one minute,

0:55:44.680 --> 0:55:50.279
<v Speaker 2>And by unbelievable, I mean it. My goddaughter Cec might

0:55:50.320 --> 0:55:53.399
<v Speaker 2>take after me a bit in the inability to stay

0:55:53.440 --> 0:55:56.320
<v Speaker 2>on the clock. Because the f one minute this week

0:55:56.880 --> 0:55:59.680
<v Speaker 2>I think might be five minutes. So we have that.

0:55:59.760 --> 0:56:02.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh and sorry, I know you guys. There was one

0:56:02.800 --> 0:56:03.760
<v Speaker 2>other hockey question.

0:56:03.840 --> 0:56:06.680
<v Speaker 4>Sorry, so did you did you catch that save by

0:56:06.920 --> 0:56:09.719
<v Speaker 4>Matthew Kuldchuck and the uh yeah that did you?

0:56:09.800 --> 0:56:11.040
<v Speaker 3>Did you see any of that yesterday?

0:56:11.640 --> 0:56:14.440
<v Speaker 2>I did. I actually was watching that game at a

0:56:14.440 --> 0:56:17.200
<v Speaker 2>poker game. I was at a poker game Tuesday and

0:56:17.280 --> 0:56:20.439
<v Speaker 2>the and the hockey game was on, and I did

0:56:20.480 --> 0:56:22.920
<v Speaker 2>see that. What was unbelievable about this save was then

0:56:23.000 --> 0:56:25.600
<v Speaker 2>they immediately scored anyway, but it was a hell of

0:56:25.640 --> 0:56:29.279
<v Speaker 2>a job. And Matthew kuld Chuck, I actually I have

0:56:29.360 --> 0:56:31.720
<v Speaker 2>a little familiarity with him because when I was a kid.

0:56:32.040 --> 0:56:35.640
<v Speaker 2>His dad, I hope it's his dad. Keith Kuldchuck was

0:56:35.680 --> 0:56:38.399
<v Speaker 2>a big time hockey player. Someone who knows hockey, tell

0:56:38.400 --> 0:56:41.239
<v Speaker 2>me is Matthew kuld Chuck and Keith Kachuck related? I

0:56:41.280 --> 0:56:43.120
<v Speaker 2>have to think they are all right? The F one

0:56:43.160 --> 0:56:54.080
<v Speaker 2>minute next? What's right? Get the Pulitzer prize? Ready? Oh?

0:56:54.120 --> 0:57:01.520
<v Speaker 2>My goodness, Tom Haverstrow, Yeahoo's sports a six thousand word

0:57:01.840 --> 0:57:08.920
<v Speaker 2>opus with first hand video evidence of something we've all

0:57:09.360 --> 0:57:13.040
<v Speaker 2>always suspected. But Tom has blown the lid off it.

0:57:14.880 --> 0:57:18.200
<v Speaker 2>Michael Jordan's nineteen eighty eight Defensive Player of the Year

0:57:18.280 --> 0:57:27.000
<v Speaker 2>award fougayse fraudulent inflated stats. How about this from Haverstraw

0:57:27.040 --> 0:57:32.880
<v Speaker 2>and Yeah who sports just dropped? So Michael Jordan recorded

0:57:32.920 --> 0:57:37.000
<v Speaker 2>the largest home road splits in Defensive Player of the

0:57:37.080 --> 0:57:40.440
<v Speaker 2>Year history. So what does that mean? So Michael Jordan

0:57:40.520 --> 0:57:42.800
<v Speaker 2>that year that he was chasing the Defensive Player of

0:57:42.840 --> 0:57:47.120
<v Speaker 2>the Year award on the road when there was seemingly,

0:57:47.400 --> 0:57:52.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, a neutral scorekeeper, he averaged three steals and

0:57:52.600 --> 0:57:56.040
<v Speaker 2>blocks a game or per thirty six minute stocks. But

0:57:56.200 --> 0:58:01.760
<v Speaker 2>at home those numbers jumped to five and a half.

0:58:01.920 --> 0:58:03.959
<v Speaker 2>Now was he just better at home than on the road?

0:58:04.040 --> 0:58:05.640
<v Speaker 2>Is that common? I don't know. It's a difference of

0:58:05.680 --> 0:58:08.360
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and eighty two percent. Say it again to Monse.

0:58:08.480 --> 0:58:09.840
<v Speaker 3>How many asstoks was he getting?

0:58:10.840 --> 0:58:12.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh? I don't know how many asstocs. But his just

0:58:12.760 --> 0:58:15.000
<v Speaker 2>defensive Player of the Year, So it's just the stocks,

0:58:15.000 --> 0:58:21.760
<v Speaker 2>just steals and blocks. Tom Aberstrow got full game footage.

0:58:22.000 --> 0:58:26.400
<v Speaker 2>How about this full game footage where he could watch

0:58:26.440 --> 0:58:33.560
<v Speaker 2>and track every single play of six Jordan home games

0:58:33.560 --> 0:58:38.320
<v Speaker 2>in nineteen eighty eight the game film. In those six games,

0:58:38.920 --> 0:58:45.919
<v Speaker 2>Michael Jordan had twelve steals the home box score did

0:58:45.920 --> 0:58:49.920
<v Speaker 2>he have? How many extra steals could they have given him? Two? Three?

0:58:50.320 --> 0:58:56.000
<v Speaker 2>He had twelve the box score twenty eight. There was

0:58:56.120 --> 0:59:02.080
<v Speaker 2>a game where they credited Michael Jordan with more steals

0:59:02.480 --> 0:59:08.560
<v Speaker 2>than the other team had turnovers. Hmmm, hmmm. Might put

0:59:08.560 --> 0:59:11.920
<v Speaker 2>a little different hue on the old goat conversation. Everyone

0:59:11.960 --> 0:59:15.000
<v Speaker 2>should read it. It just drops at his sports pulat

0:59:15.080 --> 0:59:19.800
<v Speaker 2>or Tom Haberstrow. This this is, this is really you

0:59:19.880 --> 0:59:23.800
<v Speaker 2>know what I call this real journalism? What a legend

0:59:23.800 --> 0:59:27.040
<v Speaker 2>Haberstrow is. I haven't read it, but you know, you

0:59:27.120 --> 0:59:28.960
<v Speaker 2>might say, Nick, if you haven't read it and it

0:59:29.080 --> 0:59:31.360
<v Speaker 2>just dropped a few minutes ago, how do you have

0:59:31.400 --> 0:59:35.560
<v Speaker 2>all this this info? I might have been aware that

0:59:36.040 --> 0:59:39.960
<v Speaker 2>something like this was coming. I might have been behind

0:59:40.000 --> 0:59:44.280
<v Speaker 2>the scenes consulting on the project. I don't know. I'm

0:59:44.440 --> 0:59:48.480
<v Speaker 2>just here for a fair and accurate reading of NBA history.

0:59:49.040 --> 0:59:52.760
<v Speaker 2>That's all I want. That's all I've ever wanted. All right,

0:59:53.720 --> 0:59:59.800
<v Speaker 2>so demands Sierra. Well, you'll see it our F one

1:00:00.120 --> 1:00:06.840
<v Speaker 2>respond it. She is now official because she has gear,

1:00:07.960 --> 1:00:11.080
<v Speaker 2>she has a real camera and Mike set up the

1:00:11.120 --> 1:00:15.160
<v Speaker 2>whole nine, and I think because of that, she was

1:00:15.400 --> 1:00:19.240
<v Speaker 2>very excited about the F one minute this week. So

1:00:19.280 --> 1:00:23.600
<v Speaker 2>the F one minute is an F one segment. Let's

1:00:23.600 --> 1:00:26.040
<v Speaker 2>go ahead and hit it. Let's go to Sierra.

1:00:27.680 --> 1:00:31.560
<v Speaker 5>Indeed from the one is back, which means your host

1:00:31.720 --> 1:00:34.280
<v Speaker 5>of the F one minute, Ci Fidel is back as well.

1:00:34.440 --> 1:00:37.120
<v Speaker 5>But before we get into that, can we appreciate the shirt?

1:00:38.040 --> 1:00:43.600
<v Speaker 5>Can we also appreciate the hat? But most importantly, can

1:00:43.640 --> 1:00:46.600
<v Speaker 5>we appreciate the fact that I miked up shout out

1:00:46.640 --> 1:00:50.080
<v Speaker 5>to everyone who bullied nick in to buy me a microphone?

1:00:50.320 --> 1:00:54.760
<v Speaker 5>We have officially made it, but I'll just aside. We

1:00:55.000 --> 1:00:58.479
<v Speaker 5>are kicking off the tenth round of the Spoon twenty

1:00:58.480 --> 1:01:01.919
<v Speaker 5>four from the One season in Barcelona, Spain. Just give

1:01:01.960 --> 1:01:04.360
<v Speaker 5>a little background of the circuit. The first from the

1:01:04.400 --> 1:01:07.680
<v Speaker 5>One race was actually held here in nineteen ninety one. However,

1:01:08.040 --> 1:01:11.520
<v Speaker 5>there's a really rich history surrounding racing in this area,

1:01:11.840 --> 1:01:14.800
<v Speaker 5>so the first race was actually in nineteen thirteen, which

1:01:14.840 --> 1:01:18.919
<v Speaker 5>is pretty impressive. We had a nasty crash between Lewis

1:01:18.960 --> 1:01:22.960
<v Speaker 5>Hamilton and Nico Rosberg in twenty sixteen for Max firstapping.

1:01:23.160 --> 1:01:25.920
<v Speaker 5>This led to his first victory in his Formula One career.

1:01:26.360 --> 1:01:30.040
<v Speaker 5>We have some other victories one of Fernado Alonzo, pretty

1:01:30.040 --> 1:01:34.400
<v Speaker 5>emotional ones in twenty six and twenty thirteen. Considering this

1:01:34.560 --> 1:01:37.280
<v Speaker 5>is his home race as well as Nick's favorite Carlos

1:01:37.280 --> 1:01:41.800
<v Speaker 5>Science is also his home race as well. Some more

1:01:41.880 --> 1:01:44.520
<v Speaker 5>important information that you guys might need to know coming

1:01:44.520 --> 1:01:47.440
<v Speaker 5>into the twenty twenty four Spanish Grand Prix is that

1:01:47.680 --> 1:01:50.680
<v Speaker 5>big teams, well pretty much the Entigrid, but big teams

1:01:50.760 --> 1:01:54.960
<v Speaker 5>like Red Bull, Mercedes, McLaren and Ferrari are all bringing

1:01:55.000 --> 1:01:59.360
<v Speaker 5>forth significant updates to the car. I know Red Bull

1:01:59.400 --> 1:02:02.560
<v Speaker 5>has mentioned their suspension problem, you know, the fact that

1:02:02.560 --> 1:02:06.200
<v Speaker 5>they're hitting those curves on the track super aggressively is

1:02:06.240 --> 1:02:09.560
<v Speaker 5>causing problems for them. I know Ferrari has mentioned the

1:02:09.560 --> 1:02:11.800
<v Speaker 5>fact that they would like to become more competitive in

1:02:11.840 --> 1:02:16.200
<v Speaker 5>the slow speed areas on the track. Mercedes actually just

1:02:16.320 --> 1:02:20.120
<v Speaker 5>updated their front wing in Montreal, which is amazing for them,

1:02:20.160 --> 1:02:23.080
<v Speaker 5>and now they're looking to upgrade the floor of the car.

1:02:23.520 --> 1:02:28.280
<v Speaker 5>Just different updates that could make big changes or could not.

1:02:28.560 --> 1:02:31.400
<v Speaker 5>We just don't know yet. A couple of teams that

1:02:31.480 --> 1:02:35.160
<v Speaker 5>were really looking out for one being Ferrari Iin the

1:02:35.200 --> 1:02:37.600
<v Speaker 5>fact that they had such a terrible weekend in Montreal.

1:02:38.160 --> 1:02:42.120
<v Speaker 5>The Ferrari haters are wishing or hoping that it's kind

1:02:42.120 --> 1:02:44.120
<v Speaker 5>of a deep rooted issue that they have in their

1:02:44.160 --> 1:02:49.160
<v Speaker 5>car that causes more issues down the road, But in reality,

1:02:49.200 --> 1:02:51.720
<v Speaker 5>it was probably just a bad off. It was just

1:02:51.880 --> 1:02:54.200
<v Speaker 5>off weekend for them. But that's why we're kind of

1:02:54.240 --> 1:02:56.400
<v Speaker 5>watching to see if this is like a bigger problem

1:02:56.560 --> 1:02:59.400
<v Speaker 5>or if they can bounce back super quickly. Another team

1:02:59.440 --> 1:03:03.840
<v Speaker 5>that we're watching is Mercedes. They've been riding this wave

1:03:03.920 --> 1:03:09.600
<v Speaker 5>of optimism off of the Montreal weekend. We just want

1:03:09.600 --> 1:03:14.680
<v Speaker 5>to see if these high level accomplishments can be maintained. Basically,

1:03:14.720 --> 1:03:16.320
<v Speaker 5>you want to see if they can make it to

1:03:16.360 --> 1:03:16.920
<v Speaker 5>the podium.

1:03:16.920 --> 1:03:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Maybe.

1:03:17.840 --> 1:03:20.320
<v Speaker 5>I don't know, we'll see, but that's why we're watching

1:03:20.360 --> 1:03:24.560
<v Speaker 5>those teams. As far as my predictions go, One, it's

1:03:24.600 --> 1:03:28.880
<v Speaker 5>gonna be Max first happens week whoa who would guess

1:03:29.480 --> 1:03:37.760
<v Speaker 5>Maxi Stappens. Two I'm Lando, I'm gonna go Lando. Three

1:03:37.960 --> 1:03:41.640
<v Speaker 5>I'm this may be wishful thinking may not, but just

1:03:41.680 --> 1:03:43.320
<v Speaker 5>the fact that it's his home race, I would just

1:03:43.360 --> 1:03:45.160
<v Speaker 5>like him to see him on the podium. So I'm

1:03:45.160 --> 1:03:50.680
<v Speaker 5>gonna go Carlo signs yeah, and then for I'm gonna

1:03:50.680 --> 1:03:53.440
<v Speaker 5>go Louis Hamilton. I have faith. I have faith in

1:03:53.440 --> 1:03:56.640
<v Speaker 5>the Mercedes, I have faith in their updates, I have

1:03:56.680 --> 1:04:00.880
<v Speaker 5>faith in the drivers and closing. This weekend actually kicks

1:04:00.920 --> 1:04:05.280
<v Speaker 5>off the tripleheader, which basically means we have Barcelona, Austria

1:04:05.400 --> 1:04:08.400
<v Speaker 5>and then the British Grand Prix happening back to back

1:04:08.440 --> 1:04:12.520
<v Speaker 5>to back, so we'll be pretty busy the next three weeks.

1:04:12.760 --> 1:04:17.200
<v Speaker 5>But will Mercedes initiate a revival for this team? Does

1:04:17.520 --> 1:04:20.200
<v Speaker 5>Ferrari have actual problems or will they just bounce back

1:04:20.240 --> 1:04:23.560
<v Speaker 5>on the podium like nothing ever happened. Well, we'll see

1:04:23.800 --> 1:04:26.439
<v Speaker 5>tune in for the race this weekend so that next

1:04:26.480 --> 1:04:28.400
<v Speaker 5>week we have a lot to talk about. But this

1:04:28.480 --> 1:04:31.080
<v Speaker 5>has been your f one minute and I'll see you

1:04:31.120 --> 1:04:31.560
<v Speaker 5>next week.

1:04:33.440 --> 1:04:38.800
<v Speaker 2>Man. So here's the deal that is, I'm still hearing Sierra.

1:04:39.040 --> 1:04:42.439
<v Speaker 2>There we go. Uh, you know, look good, play good

1:04:42.520 --> 1:04:47.080
<v Speaker 2>type of thing. I think the uniform instilled CC with

1:04:47.120 --> 1:04:50.600
<v Speaker 2>some real confidence. That was great. That was her best.

1:04:53.440 --> 1:04:55.760
<v Speaker 3>And she still called at the end.

1:04:56.880 --> 1:04:59.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she didn't call the f one minute. That's fine. Listen,

1:04:59.200 --> 1:05:01.919
<v Speaker 2>we I today's show is gonna be super fast because

1:05:01.960 --> 1:05:04.800
<v Speaker 2>we know we've gone an hour and ten minutes. Let's

1:05:04.840 --> 1:05:06.840
<v Speaker 2>get to some questions quickly.

1:05:08.000 --> 1:05:11.479
<v Speaker 4>Producers asked bass basketball season is over, and with only

1:05:11.560 --> 1:05:14.800
<v Speaker 4>baseball left to watch, it's time to look elsewhere for entertainment.

1:05:15.120 --> 1:05:17.200
<v Speaker 4>Are you Are you interested in any of the big

1:05:17.240 --> 1:05:18.640
<v Speaker 4>summer TV shows coming out?

1:05:20.160 --> 1:05:23.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so House of the Dragon, Yes, the Bear. Yes.

1:05:24.200 --> 1:05:26.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what the Boys is. I've never seen

1:05:26.720 --> 1:05:30.280
<v Speaker 2>it like this. I don't know what the acolyte. Oh really,

1:05:31.160 --> 1:05:34.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what the acolyte. That sounds like something

1:05:34.080 --> 1:05:37.680
<v Speaker 2>I might be interested in. And Love Island absolutely not.

1:05:38.200 --> 1:05:39.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I'm not a I'm not trying to act

1:05:40.040 --> 1:05:42.120
<v Speaker 2>like I'm too good for it. But I don't watch

1:05:42.160 --> 1:05:46.320
<v Speaker 2>reality TV. I again, it sounded condescending. I don't care

1:05:46.360 --> 1:05:48.440
<v Speaker 2>if you do. I don't judge you. It's just not

1:05:48.560 --> 1:05:52.479
<v Speaker 2>my it's just not my cup of tea, so to speak.

1:05:52.920 --> 1:05:54.919
<v Speaker 2>But House of the Dragon, I'm already watching. In the Bear,

1:05:54.960 --> 1:05:56.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm super excited for Go.

1:05:56.440 --> 1:06:01.320
<v Speaker 4>Ahead, Curtis Matthews, Love the Thursday Day show. I wonder

1:06:01.360 --> 1:06:04.040
<v Speaker 4>what's in store for the podcast during the summer. I'm

1:06:04.040 --> 1:06:06.439
<v Speaker 4>here for it all year round. This is my number

1:06:06.480 --> 1:06:08.840
<v Speaker 4>one podcast show. Thanks dude, Well.

1:06:08.760 --> 1:06:11.320
<v Speaker 2>I appreciate that, to be honest. What's in store over

1:06:11.360 --> 1:06:13.440
<v Speaker 2>the next month is we are gonna you know, I'm

1:06:13.480 --> 1:06:18.320
<v Speaker 2>gonna miss some time next week for to go to Vegas. Uh,

1:06:18.520 --> 1:06:20.160
<v Speaker 2>we're not gonna do a show on the fourth of July.

1:06:20.320 --> 1:06:23.200
<v Speaker 2>We then have a family vacation, so it's gonna be

1:06:23.760 --> 1:06:27.880
<v Speaker 2>more intermittent in July. But then starting in August then

1:06:28.080 --> 1:06:30.120
<v Speaker 2>so we're not gonna be off the air entirely, but

1:06:30.160 --> 1:06:32.680
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna be, you know, have some downtime and that

1:06:32.920 --> 1:06:35.160
<v Speaker 2>in August, we have one week off, but the rest

1:06:35.160 --> 1:06:38.160
<v Speaker 2>were rolling and then it's football again and we're just rolling.

1:06:38.200 --> 1:06:41.320
<v Speaker 2>So we'll try to do more kind of creative fun things,

1:06:41.560 --> 1:06:43.840
<v Speaker 2>but it won't be quite as regular as a schedule

1:06:43.880 --> 1:06:44.680
<v Speaker 2>as we normally have.

1:06:44.840 --> 1:06:48.720
<v Speaker 4>All right, next, He also asked last show I mentioned

1:06:48.720 --> 1:06:51.960
<v Speaker 4>should the Lakers trade for money Williams? Now that he's available,

1:06:52.280 --> 1:06:54.440
<v Speaker 4>what should the Lakers do? Is he a better option

1:06:54.480 --> 1:06:55.400
<v Speaker 4>than JJ Reddick.

1:06:56.360 --> 1:06:58.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, he's certainly more you know, season of a coach,

1:06:58.960 --> 1:07:00.919
<v Speaker 2>he's been to the finals. I don't think they're gonna.

1:07:01.360 --> 1:07:03.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they're gonna.

1:07:02.440 --> 1:07:02.600
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

1:07:03.440 --> 1:07:04.880
<v Speaker 2>I guess maybe they don't have to pay money a

1:07:04.920 --> 1:07:06.760
<v Speaker 2>lot because he's getting all that money from Detroit. But

1:07:06.800 --> 1:07:10.440
<v Speaker 2>Monny might want to take some time off, all right.

1:07:10.600 --> 1:07:15.000
<v Speaker 4>Next, Scott Murphy said, now that Horford finally won a ring,

1:07:15.080 --> 1:07:17.640
<v Speaker 4>who is most likely to win one next year?

1:07:18.120 --> 1:07:18.760
<v Speaker 3>Harden or not?

1:07:18.840 --> 1:07:23.440
<v Speaker 4>Next year? Next Harden? CP three Westbrook, Jimmy Butler, Jay Crowder,

1:07:23.800 --> 1:07:27.560
<v Speaker 4>Paul George all have plus one hundred and fourteen plus

1:07:27.600 --> 1:07:28.680
<v Speaker 4>career playoff games.

1:07:30.000 --> 1:07:33.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean shout out to Jay Crowder for making that list.

1:07:33.720 --> 1:07:38.240
<v Speaker 2>I Paul George because he Paul George because he might

1:07:38.320 --> 1:07:42.440
<v Speaker 2>change teams like Paul George if he were to go

1:07:42.480 --> 1:07:45.560
<v Speaker 2>to Philly, I think they would be a real viable contender.

1:07:45.640 --> 1:07:48.280
<v Speaker 2>Let's go to the last one. Noah Rodriguez Demanse.

1:07:48.200 --> 1:07:49.400
<v Speaker 3>No what Roriguez said?

1:07:49.520 --> 1:07:52.320
<v Speaker 4>Nick, I'm getting married today, obviously I had to start

1:07:52.360 --> 1:07:54.320
<v Speaker 4>off my big day with some what's right? Do you

1:07:54.360 --> 1:07:57.000
<v Speaker 4>have any wedding day advice for me? H? And do

1:07:57.080 --> 1:07:58.400
<v Speaker 4>you have any tips.

1:07:58.080 --> 1:07:59.960
<v Speaker 3>For married men who are addicted to sports?

1:08:01.000 --> 1:08:03.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, let me just give wedding day advice. First, we

1:08:03.400 --> 1:08:05.960
<v Speaker 2>can maybe do you know tips for you know how

1:08:05.960 --> 1:08:09.360
<v Speaker 2>to watch sports and keep the family life together. Another time,

1:08:10.400 --> 1:08:13.680
<v Speaker 2>wedding day advice is this, and it's sincere real advice.

1:08:14.760 --> 1:08:20.240
<v Speaker 2>If you drink, pace yourself significantly on the alcohol. Not

1:08:20.400 --> 1:08:24.080
<v Speaker 2>because you're necessarily gonna act a fool, but you don't.

1:08:24.200 --> 1:08:28.240
<v Speaker 2>You want to vividly remember the evening and you have

1:08:28.320 --> 1:08:31.000
<v Speaker 2>a few beers with your buddies, you know, as everyone's

1:08:31.000 --> 1:08:34.679
<v Speaker 2>getting dressed. Then after the ceremony there's a cocktail hour,

1:08:35.040 --> 1:08:37.080
<v Speaker 2>then all of us you do, there's toast, this, there's

1:08:37.160 --> 1:08:42.160
<v Speaker 2>all that. You don't want to be legit drunk at

1:08:42.160 --> 1:08:43.880
<v Speaker 2>the end of the night. And then it's like wait,

1:08:44.120 --> 1:08:46.680
<v Speaker 2>not because yes, you could embarrass yourself or something, but

1:08:46.720 --> 1:08:49.920
<v Speaker 2>you want to be able to remember those moments. And

1:08:50.640 --> 1:08:54.200
<v Speaker 2>the other thing that I would say is take do

1:08:54.720 --> 1:08:58.559
<v Speaker 2>My biggest piece of wedding advice is for the people

1:08:58.640 --> 1:09:05.000
<v Speaker 2>getting married. Everyone that is there for you, and anyone

1:09:05.120 --> 1:09:10.799
<v Speaker 2>there that makes their own wants, needs, priorities, hurt feelings,

1:09:10.840 --> 1:09:16.360
<v Speaker 2>anything like raise to the level of where you hear

1:09:16.439 --> 1:09:21.880
<v Speaker 2>about it. That's not only not on you that make

1:09:21.920 --> 1:09:25.519
<v Speaker 2>a little mental note of who those people would be

1:09:25.520 --> 1:09:27.840
<v Speaker 2>because those people aren't there for you when they need

1:09:27.880 --> 1:09:30.920
<v Speaker 2>to be like that, you should not have to worry

1:09:30.960 --> 1:09:33.679
<v Speaker 2>about ah man, this person's upset about where they're sitting.

1:09:33.880 --> 1:09:36.160
<v Speaker 2>That's not your job on your wedding day. Your job

1:09:36.320 --> 1:09:42.120
<v Speaker 2>is to be in the moment. Take a few mental snapshots,

1:09:42.560 --> 1:09:48.439
<v Speaker 2>drink water along with the alcohol, and make sure you

1:09:48.479 --> 1:09:52.880
<v Speaker 2>know what I mean that. Try to have your best

1:09:52.960 --> 1:09:57.080
<v Speaker 2>man or groomsmen on alert for any problems that could

1:09:57.160 --> 1:10:00.559
<v Speaker 2>arise so they don't get to you, and certainly so

1:10:00.600 --> 1:10:03.639
<v Speaker 2>they don't get to your wife. And make sure your

1:10:03.800 --> 1:10:06.519
<v Speaker 2>other than your wife. The only person you need to

1:10:06.600 --> 1:10:10.800
<v Speaker 2>make sure is all good is your wife's mother. You

1:10:10.920 --> 1:10:13.360
<v Speaker 2>handle those things, You'll have a great time. Deman's a
