WEBVTT - 06/08/21 DPS Hour 1 Adam Lefkoe 0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.520 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:09.879 Sports Radio. Yep, tonight's the night we lose our fourth 0:00:09.920 --> 0:00:17.400 consecutive Sports Emmy. That's not breaking news. I'm not guaranteeing it. 0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:21.000 But the likelihood of us not winning tonight, I'd say 0:00:21.440 --> 0:00:26.240 high probability. But we're gonna party. We're gonna celebrate. You know, 0:00:26.760 --> 0:00:30.080 we're gonna flip the Sports Emmy on its head or 0:00:30.160 --> 0:00:33.200 her head. And what we're going to do is we're 0:00:33.240 --> 0:00:37.320 going to celebrate no matter what happens. If pardon the interruption, 0:00:37.360 --> 0:00:42.599 wins or Sports Center wins, congratulations, and then we're going 0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:46.400 to pour champagne all over ourselves. And that's the way 0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:49.640 it should be, because it's just an honor to get nominated. 0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:52.240 And you can watch us. You can watch the entire 0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:56.840 show that we have. Now we have a Emmy watch party. 0:00:57.160 --> 0:00:59.560 You can watch us watching the Sports Emmy's. But we 0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:01.960 also look back on this entire year, all the great 0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:04.760 moments that we had. We have great guests and some 0:01:04.840 --> 0:01:08.840 bad moments as well. Adam Sandler, Bryan Cranston, Will Ferrell, 0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:12.240 Darius Rucker, Melissa Ethridge has a song for us.

This is why 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:47.480 I hate making predictions, because then I'm so invested in 0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:51.000 it and I'm watching the Bucks get blown out. At 0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:55.880 one point, they're down by forty nine.

And yes, 0:02:59.080 --> 0:03:01.880 we do have a imerick. This is a sports Emmy 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:06.480 limerick that Todd has prepared for us. Todd, do you 0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:11.040 have a limerick that you're willing to release now prior 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:13.280 to tonight's big event? Sure, I have a separate one 0:03:13.280 --> 0:03:15.519 for later. I have one for this morning show that's 0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:18.320 ready to roll. Oh, so do you have one if 0:03:18.360 --> 0:03:21.760 we win? We have what if we win? If we lose? Okay, 0:03:21.840 --> 0:03:24.000 and I have this one? Can I have like a 0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:26.600 celebratory one that there's a lot of options? Okay? Yes? Plan? 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:29.760 Should you write a limerick anticipating a loss? It's like 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:31.840 when you ask NBA player, did you how do you 0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:34.640 planned if you lose a saying I'm never thinking about it. 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:37.280 R J. Barret would yell at you now I'm okay. 0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:40.880 I'm okay with you preparing for a loss like I'm 0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:44.800 all for preparation. And even if it means that we've 0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:48.680 lost again, we at least prepared to lose. And I 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.520 like that. Todd. All right, so here's your limerick. As 0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:55.240 we get ready for today's show and then we have 0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:59.000 the big festivities tonight, it's time to end Dan and 0:03:59.080 --> 0:04:02.840 Dan that exclusion. Though announcing US winners may cause some confusion, 0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:05.360 would be quite a stat of the day to send 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:08.480 the trophy all away, Dan Patrick, show Emmy a four 0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:12.360 gone conclusion. Okay, here we go. I like it. Here 0:04:12.400 --> 0:04:19.039 we go four consecutive Sports Emmy nominations, and we could 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:22.599 end up being the Buffalo Bills. But that's okay because 0:04:22.720 --> 0:04:25.840 I think I think what the Buffalo Bills did will 0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:29.279 never be replicated. You can go to four super Bowls 0:04:29.279 --> 0:04:33.760 and lose four Super Bowls. Nobody wants to replicate that, 0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:36.840 but but us we do. Do you think that they 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:39.599 were after they lost telling each other limericks in the 0:04:39.600 --> 0:04:42.719 locker room? I think so. I was actually at that 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:45.839 Super Bowl. Jim Kelly was like, fellas gather around. I 0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:47.680 just want to share a quick limerick. For you on 0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:52.440 our loss. You know Bruce Smith, big Limerick guy, crazy 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:55.160 Limerick guy, and don't get Jim Kelly started on a 0:04:55.240 --> 0:05:00.280 Limerick man loves himself some prose. Yes, mclovin. I still 0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:03.880 want to point out the Broncos lost three and then 0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:07.760 one their four and we have a super Broncos fan 0:05:07.839 --> 0:05:10.839 from that here together. But it wasn't three in a 0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:13.160 row that you lost, now, it was three and four 0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:16.880 years that get progressively worse scores. Thank you, Todd. Well, yeah, 0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:19.080 they got blown out. Like but if you lose the 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:20.680 I means you can't get blown out of the Emmys. 0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:22.760 It's an equal loss. We never see the vote, right, 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:27.320 I don't know what the vote total. They never let 0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:31.599 us in on the vote total. Do you want to know? No? No, no. 0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:36.160 I was told by a voter one time and he said, hey, 0:05:36.360 --> 0:05:40.960 I got to review studio host and you're gonna win it. 0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:45.920 And I went to the Sports Emmys and I truly 0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:49.760 I did not applaud when they made the announcement because 0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:53.320 I didn't want to applaud for me. And then I 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:57.839 didn't win the Sports Emmy. Like that's crushing. That's where 0:05:57.920 --> 0:05:59.760 I said, I said to my wife. I said, look 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:02.520 said hunh, I'm I'm gonna win. I was told I 0:06:02.560 --> 0:06:04.240 was gonna win. She goes, well, how how would you 0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:07.560 get that information? I said, somebody who voted said your 0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:10.520 tape was awesome, and everybody in the room agreed. And 0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:13.240 I go, okay, and she goes, and you trust this person? 0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:16.240 I said, yes, I trust this person. And I get 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:21.640 there and I'm like, I'm in a great mood. And 0:06:21.680 --> 0:06:24.479 all of a sudden, they open that envelope and the 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:35.680 winner is Bob Costas and I went. And then I 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:40.479 saw the guy after the award ceremony and he said, hey, 0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:45.680 I don't know what happened. I said, I do. I 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:49.760 didn't win. You go get me an emmy. I don't 0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:53.960 care whose it is. You own me one. But it's 0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:58.760 a big night, big night, and where champagne will be flowing. 0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:02.920 I will say that there will be champagne. The triggers 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:06.680 will be fired up, and we have so many Mario 0:07:07.120 --> 0:07:12.320 is producing this Watch Party, so guaranteed to go wrong. Yeah, 0:07:12.440 --> 0:07:15.160 so I got Mary, I mean good hands. Mario is 0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:18.680 producing this hour long special, the Watch Party, And then 0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:22.520 when our category comes up, you're going to be able 0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:26.520 to watch that live as we watch it live, and 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:30.600 then you can live vicariously through us as we lose. 0:07:31.120 --> 0:07:33.760 And then if you want to poor champagne on yourself 0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:37.960 after we lose, you can or have somebody poor Champagne 0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:40.840 on you. Daco choice, go right ahead. Yeah, doesn't have 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:44.120 to be champagne. Yeah. I've had the champagne and this refrigerator, 0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:47.760 the back room guys refrigerator, for a year now, and 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:50.440 I still have the five bottles there. Everybody gets a 0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:55.960 bottle tonight and we're gonna celebrate, because why not. You 0:07:55.960 --> 0:07:59.840 don't want to see us cry anymore. Fritzie, have you 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:03.600 ever opened a bottle of champagne? I have not recently. 0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:06.440 I did um when I proposed to my wife and 0:08:06.440 --> 0:08:09.360 then we went to we went to Miami for like 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:12.320 a three day celebration excursion, and there was champagne. Then 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:13.960 I was wondering, how am I going to be able 0:08:14.000 --> 0:08:16.080 to open this? To have to and bactly call someone 0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:18.080 to come up to the room and open it, and 0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:19.640 then I gotta give the guy a tip when it 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:21.320 looks really bad if I can't figure out a way 0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:23.160 to open it. Took a while, but eventually I got 0:08:23.160 --> 0:08:25.720 it out I'm gonna have you open up the champagne tonight. 0:08:26.560 --> 0:08:28.600 They may not go well. I know, they have to 0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:30.160 like peel off like a rapper. And then there's like 0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:32.240 some kind of device that you gotta like, you might down, 0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:34.360 you might want to get started soon. And there's a cork. 0:08:34.559 --> 0:08:36.800 There's a lot of things. Yes, yes, someone's gonna get in. 0:08:37.040 --> 0:08:39.600 And you know, you could put your eye out, you could. 0:08:39.720 --> 0:08:41.400 You gotta be careful with it pops out. And we 0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:43.920 should have the toddler do it with a saber. You 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:46.720 have people like cre the sword and they get the top. 0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:51.199 Let's do that. That'd be fun. Oh, let's see Lant's 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:53.480 talk some sports here. In some ways, the Brooklyn Nets 0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:56.480 don't make any sense to me because usually super teams 0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:58.880 need time to jail. Remember when Lebron went to Miami, 0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:01.600 they didn't win it that first year. You got the 0:09:01.640 --> 0:09:04.600 big three, you got Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and James Harden. 0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:08.319 But they've barely been on the court together. Blake Griffin, 0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:12.680 who knew Blake Griffin played twenty six games for Brooklyn 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:15.720 during the regular season, But somehow they look like they've 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:19.160 been playing together for quite some time. Harden out with 0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:22.760 a hamstring injury. I thought, the Bucks, here's your opportunity. 0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:25.480 You're gonna be able to knock off the Nets because 0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:29.520 you've learned from the two previous playoff experiences where you 0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:33.760 bowed out early, that hey, you're not a front runner, 0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:36.600 you're not a favorite, You're an underdog. And that's what 0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:41.199 we love, the underdog. Brooklyn's now up two. Oh, that 0:09:41.240 --> 0:09:44.960 doesn't mean the series is over. But Milwaukee wasn't even 0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:48.520 competitive last night, and all the flaws that we've seen 0:09:48.600 --> 0:09:51.520 with Milwaukee the two previous years, I just don't know 0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:55.840 if they've made adjustments. It feels like when you get 0:09:55.840 --> 0:10:01.800 to postseason basketball, a seven game series with Milwaukee, Miami 0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:04.640 Heat gave a blueprint last year in the playoffs. You 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:08.280 just sort of let Jannis you want to shoot outside, Great, 0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:10.800 we're going to create a wall and we're gonna have 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:14.880 other players beat us. And I don't even know if 0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:18.200 the Nets even need that kind of strategy, but you 0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:21.880 saw it last night, and it was really an embarrassing 0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:26.000 performance by Milwaukee. The Nets led by as many as 0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:30.400 forty nine, the Bucks were held to eighty six points. 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:34.600 That's the season low by ten points. They're fewest points 0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:40.040 in a postseason game since twenty seventeen. That's it. That's 0:10:40.040 --> 0:10:42.600 this kind of a day. Come on, let's go, come 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:48.600 on every day the sports here comes that. What stat 0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:53.840 of the day? Nets shot fifty percent from three point 0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:58.480 range twenty one forty two. Joe Harris looked great last night. 0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:02.600 Um here's Kyrie Irving after the blowout win against the 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:06.520 bum Bucks. I think we're capable of greatness every single night. 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:09.440 You know, it just depends on the approach we have 0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:11.760 coming in. You know, throughout the regular season. I feel 0:11:11.800 --> 0:11:14.040 like we will let our guard down playing against some 0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:15.520 of the teams in our league, and they would punch 0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:17.000 us in the mouth and we would come in talk 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:19.000 to you guys after the game about what happened, and 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:20.719 I think we would just figured out the little things 0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:23.080 in terms of how to create separation within the game 0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:26.560 and just remain resilient throughout. That's basically what has come 0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:29.080 to is it's just remaining resilient no matter what's going 0:11:29.160 --> 0:11:32.280 on and sticking to our preparation in our gameplay. Yeah, 0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:35.520 it was a great performance by them.

Probably didn't go 0:12:01.960 --> 0:12:08.480 as scripted for Jared Greenberg. Tomorrow, well mark two years 0:12:08.640 --> 0:12:13.200 since you initially injured your calf. I know you worked 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:15.000 your butt off to get to this point, but did 0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:18.160 you ever think you'd be this good? Is that a 0:12:18.200 --> 0:12:22.160 real question? Of course? Would you want me to say 0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:24.360 to that? Of course, I think it's pretty impressive. What 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:26.360 are you been able to do? Thank you? I appreciate that, 0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:27.960 but I mean that was two years ago. I'm looking 0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:30.400 forward to just getting up tomorrow, going to practice, watching 0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:33.120 family and uh, let's see how we can get better. 0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:35.360 But you know, I appreciate that, but you know that 0:12:35.480 --> 0:12:37.240 was that was too long ago. All right, Well, I'll 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:39.040 come up with some more real questions for you next time. 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:49.040 Thanks Kevin, love ouch, love ouch. That's live and sometimes 0:12:49.080 --> 0:12:53.200 you h you live and die with live? Yes, yes, time? 0:12:53.240 --> 0:12:54.679 And then what makes it more awkward. Then you can 0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:56.800 throw it back to like Mark, all right, it's once 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.840 again in the finals, like it just happened with still Walker. 0:12:59.880 --> 0:13:01.720 But is what it referred to it it's his colleague. 0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:05.840 We'll have Gape three. Can they turn it around? For 0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:12.240 Jared Greenberg? For Jared Greenberg and grand Hill. I'm Marvels 0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:15.720 again the Nuts blow out the Bucks. That was awkward. 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:21.800 It would have been great if Marv did react, you know, 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:25.560 just in the moment like that. That's real questions, fake 0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:29.600 effort by the Bucks. Can they turn it around in 0:13:29.640 --> 0:13:39.560 Gabe three NBA on TNT. Yes, that was embarrassing. All right, 0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:43.360 you start with the question that doesn't start out as 0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:49.600 a question, and it's close ended question. But you know 0:13:49.720 --> 0:13:53.680 two years ago, we know the injury and okay, play 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:58.160 play the question here sued by Jared Greenberg. At tomorrow 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:02.120 we'll mark two years since you initially injured your calf. 0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:05.600 I know you worked your butt off to get to 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:08.120 this point, but did you ever think you'd beat this good? 0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:13.120 Is that a real question? Of course? Would you want 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:14.840 me to say to that? Of course? I think it's 0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:16.840 pretty impressive what you been able to do. Thank you. 0:14:16.880 --> 0:14:18.800 I appreciate that, but I mean, that was two years ago. 0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:20.920 I'm looking forward to just getting up tomorrow. I'm going 0:14:20.960 --> 0:14:23.640 to practice, watch your family and uh, let's see how 0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:26.080 we can get better. But you know, I appreciate that, 0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:27.680 but you know that was that was so long ago. 0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:29.280 All right, Well, I'll come up with some more real 0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:34.720 questions for you next time. Thanks, Kevin Love. Yeah, it's 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:36.960 a bit of a clunky question. It could have been 0:14:37.040 --> 0:14:38.680 phrased better. He could have said, if I told you 0:14:38.680 --> 0:14:40.440 two years ago when you tore your calf, you'd be 0:14:40.440 --> 0:14:44.720 beating the Bucks by fifty data da. Kevin Durrant agreed 0:14:44.760 --> 0:14:47.960 to do the interview, just play the game for eighteen seconds, 0:14:48.040 --> 0:14:50.120 and walked to the locker room. He could have came 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:52.880 up with his own answer to the clunky question instead 0:14:52.880 --> 0:14:54.640 of making it about him. Oh yeah, he could have 0:14:54.680 --> 0:14:58.520 helped out Jared Greenberg. Right, he did not want to, right, Fine, 0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:02.160 We've seen these posts game interviews with Kevin Durant. If 0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:05.280 he's on with TNT, you know he'll he'll make it 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:08.960 awkward for you, and it almost feels like that's by design. Yeah, 0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:12.840 but he sort of did it nicely awkward. Well, I 0:15:13.080 --> 0:15:15.200 mean it was it was with a laugh, and he did. 0:15:15.240 --> 0:15:17.320 He was like, yeah, man, I appreciate that much love, 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:20.920 you know whatever. Yeah, but is that a real question? 0:15:21.080 --> 0:15:26.160 But it's not really, That's not like like Greg Popovich 0:15:26.320 --> 0:15:29.440 was a jerk. Yeah, like straight up would just absolutely 0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:34.600 unnecessarily rude reporters. Yeah, Kevin Durant didn't do that. He 0:15:34.720 --> 0:15:37.120 could have. He could have helped a little bit there, 0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:40.840 he could have. Yeah, I saw that the same thing. 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:43.400 During the Celtics series. Someone would ask him, did you 0:15:43.400 --> 0:15:45.440 ever think you're going to be an elite defender again 0:15:45.480 --> 0:15:48.560 after your calf injury? And he he was even meaner 0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:52.720 Katie was. He didn't like these calf injury questions. But 0:15:52.960 --> 0:15:54.920 two years ago, by the way, Katie, is that that 0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:57.440 long ago for blowing out your achilles? He's like, that's 0:15:57.480 --> 0:16:00.440 ancient history. What, No, it's not. What he's doing is 0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:03.160 so impressive because what happened in the last two years 0:16:03.160 --> 0:16:06.400 that he didn't play basketball for five hundred days and 0:16:06.440 --> 0:16:08.880 he's coming back. And you would never if I said, 0:16:09.120 --> 0:16:12.640 pick the guy who you know blew out as achilles, 0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:15.840 Pick the guy on the floor that is coming back 0:16:15.880 --> 0:16:18.880 from surgery where he didn't play basketball for five hundred days, 0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:24.040 you'd never picked Kevin Durant. The question is clunky because 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:28.040 you're giving an opinion, Yes, you know this come back. 0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:30.640 Did you ever think you would be this good? It's 0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:34.920 a close ended question. A lot of athletes get them talking. 0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:38.160 I mean, I I ask close ended questions, but in 0:16:38.200 --> 0:16:40.880 my mind, I'm always trying to ask an open ended question. 0:16:42.120 --> 0:16:45.040 You know what, what was your thought two years ago 0:16:45.400 --> 0:16:50.960 when you suffered this injury? And then he might say, hey, 0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:53.440 I was hoping I'd be able to come back, and 0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:55.280 I you know, I thought I was going to be 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:58.520 even better. But the fact that you know, did you 0:16:58.560 --> 0:17:00.440 think you were going to be this good? And then 0:17:00.480 --> 0:17:02.600 he says, is that a real question? Well, he knows 0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:08.240 it's a real question. Fritzie called for Jared Greenberg, the 0:17:08.359 --> 0:17:11.840 TNT sideline reporter. How about we get Kevin Durant and 0:17:12.040 --> 0:17:15.840 Jared Greenberg on again and then we yeah, yeah, we 0:17:15.880 --> 0:17:18.480 have a redo. Yes time. But as clunky as the 0:17:18.560 --> 0:17:20.600 question was, you know, there's a thousands different things he 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:22.119 could have said. You know what, I'm not surprised. I 0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:24.000 worked very hard. It's been a rough two years, but 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:26.240 I was motivated to get myself back to the level 0:17:26.280 --> 0:17:28.320 that I expect to play at and there's just that 0:17:28.440 --> 0:17:31.040 that's what you say? Is a national TV you're can 0:17:31.040 --> 0:17:32.840 embarrass the guy? Is that a real question? I don't 0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:36.640 know what kind of relationship they have. Maybe he's around 0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:40.240 him a lot, Maybe they were I don't know, they 0:17:40.240 --> 0:17:42.880 were having fun. I don't know. I felt bad for 0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:48.520 him because it's live TV and those are hard jobs. 0:17:48.560 --> 0:17:50.800 When you got you get time to ask one or 0:17:50.800 --> 0:17:55.240 two questions. And what is that one question or two questions? 0:17:55.240 --> 0:17:58.160 The sideline reporter as the coach runs off at halftime? 0:17:58.880 --> 0:18:00.879 What kind of a judgment are you gonna make in 0:18:00.920 --> 0:18:04.000 the second half? Oh, let me tell you. I'll tell 0:18:04.040 --> 0:18:08.119 you right now. Don't tell anybody but I. This is 0:18:08.160 --> 0:18:11.120 what we're gonna do. We're gonna try to play better. 0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:13.320 We're down thirty. We're gonna try to play more defense 0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:16.479 and spare more basket. Yes, yes, yes, I'm waiting for 0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:18.520 one of these sideline reporters to just snap and go. 0:18:19.240 --> 0:18:21.000 You could have asked a better question, you know what, Kevin, 0:18:21.000 --> 0:18:22.600 I'm surprised you're even here. Isn't you're trying to be 0:18:22.680 --> 0:18:24.320 on the injured list? Is it to answer to me 0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:26.440 like one of these guys, is just gonna snap and 0:18:26.840 --> 0:18:30.720 go off and just walk off into the sunset. Oh, 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:35.160 we got Adam lefco on loan from tn T get 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:40.040 response off of the nets. Yes, McLevin. They had Mike Budenholzer, 0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:42.520 the Bucks coach, on after the first quarter, and I 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:44.920 thought he was gonna cry. He looked they were down 0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:47.240 by third that I had a pull question. Were the 0:18:47.600 --> 0:18:50.640 Brooklyn that's that good or the Milwaukee Bucks that bad? 0:18:52.320 --> 0:18:54.720 What's you come away with? Let me take a break here, 0:18:55.040 --> 0:18:56.440 Let me take a break, then we'll settle on a 0:18:56.440 --> 0:18:59.840 pull question. Got a couple of more stats of the day. 0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:04.199 We got mini camp with you know, this is the 0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:08.720 offseason workout mandatory. But I don't think that Aaron Rodgers 0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:11.479 is showing up. Albert Breer from the Monday Morning Quarterback 0:19:11.480 --> 0:19:13.400 will join us.

They go far beyond builds 0:20:44.320 --> 0:20:47.320 equipped engineer to be ready for anything, go the extra mile, 0:20:47.440 --> 0:20:51.560 taking that all important first step into an authorized dealership today. 0:20:51.600 --> 0:20:54.800 All right, mclovin, what's the full question today? Okay? A 0:20:54.800 --> 0:20:57.919 few MBA questions last night? Was Brooklyn that good or 0:20:57.960 --> 0:21:00.400 Milwaukee that bad? I would bet you if we put 0:21:00.440 --> 0:21:02.760 that up in Milwaukee being that bad would be the 0:21:03.520 --> 0:21:07.440 big storyline. Well, you can't be down by forty nine. Yeah, 0:21:07.440 --> 0:21:09.840 even if Brooklyn's playing that well that how is that 0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:12.679 possible that a team that's that could play that poorly? 0:21:12.800 --> 0:21:15.359 So you don't have James Harden and you're down, and 0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:17.760 you know you have to get this win because you're 0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:19.840 not sure when Harden's going to come back. Maybe you 0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:23.600 steal a couple of games and maybe doesn't come back 0:21:23.840 --> 0:21:27.159 and you can win this series. I mean, that was 0:21:27.680 --> 0:21:30.840 less than inspiring and it just felt like they had 0:21:30.880 --> 0:21:36.400 they made no adjustments, and I kept watching going, you 0:21:36.440 --> 0:21:40.240 can't be this bad, but they were what else do 0:21:40.280 --> 0:21:43.200 you have? Okay? Will Janis ever be able to win 0:21:43.240 --> 0:21:48.919 a title in Milwaukee? Okay? Oh, in Milwaukee. Does he 0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:51.240 have to go to like an LA At some point, 0:21:53.000 --> 0:21:56.480 I think people have to understand there's certain places that 0:21:56.600 --> 0:22:00.080 you might not be able to get free agents. At 0:22:00.160 --> 0:22:03.280 least it's tougher to get free agents. You know, if 0:22:03.560 --> 0:22:07.280 you're going to be in Brooklyn or Miami or LA, 0:22:07.840 --> 0:22:11.280 you can get a free agent. It feels like, you know, 0:22:11.359 --> 0:22:14.440 Lebron had trouble in Cleveland famously, couldn't get Chris Bosh 0:22:14.520 --> 0:22:17.880 to even stop into Cleveland. He went straight to Miami. 0:22:18.240 --> 0:22:21.720 He was trying to recruit Bosh. They got Kevin Love, 0:22:21.840 --> 0:22:26.400 but that was with a trade Kyrie. That was when 0:22:26.440 --> 0:22:28.719 the Calves were bad and they were able to draft 0:22:28.880 --> 0:22:33.000 Kyrie after Lebron left. But you're trying to get free agents, 0:22:33.000 --> 0:22:36.400 there's certain cities where it's going to be tougher to 0:22:36.440 --> 0:22:39.480 get players to want to go. I mean New York 0:22:40.160 --> 0:22:42.479 the Knicks for a long period of time, he had 0:22:42.520 --> 0:22:44.800 a hard time getting you a player. You still have 0:22:44.840 --> 0:22:46.919
