What a crazy 12 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 4: twenty four hours. It's ben Monty in the NBA because 13 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,279 Speaker 4: you heard Ryan Bersinger say that Jason Tatum is on 14 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 4: the verge of returning tonight for the Celtics from his 15 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 4: achilles injury. But it's also what happened last night in 16 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 4: the NBA that makes this twenty four hours just a 17 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,560 Speaker 4: whirlwind of chaos in the association. 18 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 5: I feel like in the last twenty four hours we 19 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 5: can label the NBA the good, the bad, and the funny. 20 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 3: Ooh interesting, you know, not lovely? 21 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 4: The funny samdy like that. The good, the bad and 22 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 4: the funny I do. I didn't think even if he 23 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 4: wasn't listening, he would he would have agreed with whatever 24 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 4: Monzi said. There's no doubt about that. It is also 25 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,679 Speaker 4: March sixth, so we are really sliding into March madness. 26 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 4: And an hour from now, March madness hit the state 27 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 4: of Iowa like you wouldn't believe. And right now the 28 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 4: state of Iowa is feeding off of that March madness 29 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 4: because Drake is leading Belmont in Arch madness. This is 30 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 4: my favorite conference tournament of the year, the Missouri Valley Conference. 31 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 4: I was off yesterday and I was watching Drake against 32 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 4: Southern Illinois play into this portion of the bracket. It's 33 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 4: in Saint Louis. Yes, the Missouri Valley Conference. And while 34 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 4: the schools have changed, the Arch madness has not. But 35 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 4: we'll keep you up to date on everything that has happened. 36 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 4: You want to know what ticks me off about the 37 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 4: Jason Tatum return tonight? Doesn't really tick me off, but 38 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 4: just kind of irks me a bit. 39 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 6: What this is? Uh, I think the bad. 40 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 3: This is the bad. 41 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 7: This is the. 42 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 3: Let's be real. 43 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 4: If you follow the NBA, if you like the NBA, 44 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 4: even if you're an NBA casual, you have disdain for 45 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 4: the Boston Celtics, like they are just they're not a 46 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 4: team that you're like, yeah, I kind of like them. 47 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 4: They just you don't like you you're either a diehard 48 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,639 Speaker 4: Celtics fan or you just don't like the Boston Celtics. 49 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 4: And this season was the exception to that rule, because 50 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 4: with Jason Tatum going down with this injury last year, 51 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 4: you had Jalen Brown being the only superstar they reset. 52 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 4: There's no more porzingis no more Drew Holiday, and I 53 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 4: think going into the season, at least I was expecting, 54 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 4: I wasn't expecting much from Boston this year, and in fact, Manzi, 55 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 4: I even thought, maybe Boston's just gonna kind of throw 56 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 4: in the towel and see what they can do draft 57 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 4: wise and add another piece, and then they'll just be 58 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 4: back up the top of the East in the next season. 59 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 4: But what happens is Peyton Pritchard's playing out of his mind. 60 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 4: They end up them making some trade deadline deals, and 61 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 4: now they're getting Jason Tatum back, and they completely in 62 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 4: the short window that you could say, look at the 63 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 4: feel good Celtics shorthanded with no Tatum, and they let 64 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 4: go of the veterans. They're just they're the little engine 65 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 4: that could, and now here they are in the Eastern 66 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 4: Conference with the return of Jason Tatum, and whether it 67 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 4: works or not we will find out over the next 68 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 4: couple of months, but I think the prevailing sentiment is 69 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 4: that Boston is now there to take the East and 70 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 4: to overtake the Detroit Pistons. And so any feel good 71 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 4: moment that you had with the Boston Celtics that I admittedly, 72 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 4: even as a Milwaukee Bucks fan who the Bucks are 73 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 4: falling on their face this season, it was like, you 74 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 4: know what, it's kind of neat to see what Boston's doing, completely. 75 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 3: Wiped out, erased. 76 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 4: Now that Jason Tatum is back in Boston and set 77 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 4: to play a night against the MAVs, likely making them 78 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:02,840 Speaker 4: the favorite in the East. 79 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 5: I think that's a really good way to put it, 80 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 5: because it's like, I don't I don't hate the Celtics, 81 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 5: but I definitely don't like them, right, Like that's I 82 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 5: I'm not rooting for the Celtics. I don't I don't 83 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 5: like them, I don't hate them. I'm not a Laker fan. 84 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 5: So it's I don't have that, but I definitely am 85 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 5: not a person that's rooting for the Celtics, but this 86 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 5: season watching them, you're like, wow, good for you. 87 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 6: Like you said Peyton. 88 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 5: Fritchard coming uh was a coming off the bench last 89 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 5: season as a starter. Now Jalen Brown saying this is 90 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 5: his funnest season ever, not the season where he won 91 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 5: a championship and was the NBA Finals MVP, this is 92 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 5: his most favorite season. 93 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 6: They're having fun and they got on a nice little run. 94 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 5: There was like a few games at the start of 95 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,839 Speaker 5: season you were like, Okay, how is this team going 96 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 5: to survive this season? I also with you, thought that 97 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 5: maybe they would just throw in the towel and see 98 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 5: what comes out of it. They're in second place in 99 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 5: the Eastern Conference right now, and I think only three 100 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 5: teams from both the East and the West have a 101 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 5: better record than the Celtics. 102 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 6: They're doing really well. 103 00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:01,239 Speaker 5: I think it's a bad idea to bring Jason back 104 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 5: into the. 105 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 3: Mix, messing up the chemistry, messing. 106 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 6: Up the chemistry. Also, it seems rushed. 107 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 5: I'm no medical expert, but this is a really serious injury. 108 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 5: There is always a risk of you getting injured again, 109 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 5: and not that anybody wants off for Jason Tatum, But 110 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 5: why the rush to come back so quickly, especially. 111 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 6: Because Jason Tatum, you are an NBA champions. There is 112 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 6: nothing that you need. 113 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 5: Maybe you want that champion MVP Finals MVP, but you 114 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 5: are an NBA champion and you're gonna come in and 115 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 5: it's not like you're coming in as like a six man. 116 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 5: You're coming in trying to put yourself back into the 117 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 5: starting rotation because you are Jason Tatum. 118 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 6: Why would you want this? 119 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 5: If you're Boston things are going well, preserve Jason Tatum 120 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 5: and make sure that he's one hundred and ten percent healthy, 121 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 5: not just ninety percent because you don't need him. 122 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 4: You know, you know the answer to it is, Jason 123 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 4: Tatum doesn't want to feel left out, but you can't 124 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 4: have follow your if they if they win, or if 125 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 4: they win successfully and move on and who knows, maybe 126 00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 4: without him they end up making a run to the 127 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 4: NBA Finals. That there's there's that fomo and look they 128 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 4: did it without him, and it becomes expendable. 129 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 3: It's we talk about it all the time. 130 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 6: For sure. 131 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 5: What would be worse though you you have FOMO or 132 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 5: you come in and disrupt everything and you are the 133 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 5: reason why the Celtics fall apart. 134 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 3: I think that is worse, But I don't think that's 135 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 3: how he thinks. 136 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, probably, I don't think that he is. 137 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 3: Worried about that. I also think that his confidence. 138 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 4: And by the way, if it was up to the 139 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 4: Celtics to just be like, hey, why don't you hold on, 140 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 4: you know, hold off a little bit on this, then 141 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 4: you can end up building friction. I think it's totally 142 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 4: up to Jason Tatum to be honest with you, and 143 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 4: so I just don't think that that's in his his 144 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 4: thought process that it could actually fail when I think 145 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 4: a lot of people are saying it's going to fail, 146 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 4: and maybe you know, for Boston to be careful what 147 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 4: you wish for. And I don't want to say Boston 148 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 4: falls on their face like you're saying they're gonna do 149 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 4: with Jason Tatum because there is no chemistry. But I 150 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 4: think that would be something that a lot of us 151 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 4: would be rooting for. 152 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 5: It would be a great story. We would love to 153 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 5: talk about that. It would be great for us. Absolutely. 154 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 5: But it's like you're again, You're coming in to be 155 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 5: the guy again, right, You're not coming in to try 156 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 5: and insert yourself as the number four, number five option. 157 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 6: And I don't know how Jaylen Brown is gonna feel 158 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 6: about this. This is gonna change his perspective on the said. 159 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 3: We know Jaylen Brown probably feels about this. 160 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 6: It just see is it really worth it? 161 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,440 Speaker 5: And I look at it as a business decision for Boston. 162 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 5: You're right, this is all Jason Tatum. He's he does 163 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 5: not want to miss. He doesn't want them to win 164 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 5: without him. But it's like, you're already a champion, and 165 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 5: I don't know if it's worth the risk. Look at 166 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 5: it like a business decision and protecting your number one asset. 167 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 4: I think he's the less champion of any of the 168 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 4: champions that we've had, Like even an SGA's championship, I 169 00:07:56,480 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 4: think is more SGA for Oklahoma City, like Denver Jokic, 170 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 4: the Bucks had Giannis and this Raptors were Kawhi. You 171 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 4: take all of those players in rank them, Jason Tatum's 172 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 4: last in that list, and I think that there is 173 00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 4: a feeling of that. It's why he tried to copy 174 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 4: every NBA superstar with all of their stuff, Like there's 175 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 4: there's something with that. But Jason Tatum's a great player. 176 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 4: To your point about how the chemistry is gonna play 177 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 4: out now that he's with Boston, I think that makes 178 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 4: them the favorites. I hope the Pistons turn into the 179 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 4: bad boy Pistons and Kate Cunningham turns in the you know, 180 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 4: Isaiah Thomas and Isaiah Stewart's Bill Lambier if he isn't 181 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 4: already and set the tone. But when I heard Jason 182 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 4: Tatum coming, it was coming back. I'm like, all right, 183 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 4: you go Pistons, because I was it was like the 184 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 4: one year of the Yankees when Judge was a rookie 185 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:44,719 Speaker 4: and they didn't spend and they had a bunch of 186 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 4: young players. I bring this up. It was the one 187 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 4: year like you could be a Yankee stand and then 188 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 4: Judge's you know, Rookie of the Year, you know, monster numbers, 189 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 4: and then they go back to being the Yankees. You're like, okay, 190 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 4: I hate them. That's kind of how I feel about 191 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 4: the Boston Celtics now the Lakers. The Lakers another brand, 192 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 4: a bigger which I think bigger than the Boston Celtics. 193 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 4: Lebron James is always a topic. Here's the question, what 194 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 4: the heck happened to Lebron last night in Denver? Because 195 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 4: when you look at the foul head that happened on 196 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 4: committed by Nikola jokicch I watched the replay three times 197 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 4: and had no idea which elbow he actually hurt. 198 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 5: Well, he had to grab both just to make sure 199 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 5: because he was thinking which way did I land? 200 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 6: Which one? 201 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 5: I'll just grab both elbows at the same time and 202 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 5: roll for a second and then figure it out. 203 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:32,960 Speaker 6: It was so funny. 204 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 4: Do you see this? Did you guys see this last time? 205 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 4: Him rolling on the court with his hands covering his elbows. 206 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 6: Yogi didn't even touch him. Yogach didn't even touch him. 207 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 5: He gets the layup in falls to the floor, but 208 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,839 Speaker 5: grabs both elbows like he's rocking a baby. 209 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 4: Yes, so this is so just to just to recap, 210 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 4: we're not even we're not even halfway through. Lebron somehow 211 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 4: hurts elbows last night and we don't even know which 212 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 4: one it is. It could he could be out for 213 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 4: two weeks and we have no idea what happened to 214 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 4: him last night in Denver. He was a record setter. 215 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 4: We'll get to that later on in the show. He 216 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 4: did set a new NBA record last night. So then 217 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 4: Jason Tatum's coming back wenbs thirty eight and sixteen against 218 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 4: the aforementioned Pistons. 219 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 5: By the way, the funny was Lebron James of the 220 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:11,559 Speaker 5: good the bat of the funny. 221 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 6: Yes, Lebron James is the funny. The good is Victor 222 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 6: one By all Right, you like that? 223 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, no, great, but nobody cares. 224 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 6: Nobody cares. 225 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 4: How about Trey Young? You know, Trey Young debuted last 226 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 4: night against the Jazz. The Wizards lost. Trey Young made 227 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 4: his season debut, scored twelve points and then like told 228 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 4: Sports Center like, you're gonna I think it was Sports Center. 229 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 4: I forgot the clip, but they asked, like what can 230 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 4: we expect and He's like, I'm gonna show you and 231 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 4: not tell you. And I'm like, nobody's watching Wizards games, 232 00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 4: No one is. Why don't you just tell us? 233 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 5: Save social media after the fact. 234 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 6: You're gonna watch the highlights. That's what it means. 235 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 4: I mean they lost to the Jazz last night, and 236 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 4: the biggest story was that Trey Young has made his 237 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 4: debut at twelve points to nineteen minutes, and I anytime 238 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 4: out watching the Washington Wizards. Is time well spent for me? 239 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 4: So I am not going to be watching. I wish 240 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 4: Trey Young just would have told us. I also wish 241 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 4: is this is Russell Westbrook, the good, the bad, the funny. 242 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 6: He's all of it. You don't know what you're gonna 243 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 6: get from it, but he's another bad. 244 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 4: Okay, this is where we're gonna land this plane because 245 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 4: it was late last night in the cloak of darkness 246 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 4: where Russell Westbrook all of a sudden had this all 247 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 4: out attack. And this is a snippet of it. This 248 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 4: is a six minute exchange, an attack on the media 249 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 4: in the great City of Sacramento. 250 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 8: You don't go out compete on this a game. You 251 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 8: professionally go out and play and that's all you can do. 252 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 8: Which I think though, because y'all got a lot of 253 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 8: answers and you'll always be talking. Oh, it's very interesting, nobody. 254 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 8: You don't got no, no. You guys have a lot 255 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 8: of opinions about how we do. 256 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 9: What we're doing. What you got no you Yeah, you make. 257 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 8: A lot of statements and broad statements that you have 258 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 8: no context. So where do you get your context from? 259 00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 8: Are you in practice? Are you at our film session. 260 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 8: Are you anywhere around the building. No, I haven't seen 261 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,599 Speaker 8: that practice. So the false context of and actually do 262 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 8: you know me? No, you don't know me. 263 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 9: You don't know me. You don't know me, but you 264 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 9: make a lot of comments as though you do know me. 265 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 9: I've comment as no, no. 266 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 8: You don't mind intent. I see it, I see it 267 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 8: anybody else? Do you guys have any comments about how 268 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 8: we play with? Who were doing? You guys are quiet today, 269 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 8: but you guys have a lot of comments when the 270 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 8: game's going on, after the game, what we're doing, what 271 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,719 Speaker 8: we should be doing, how we should be doing it. 272 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 9: I'm confused. Oh you're here. You must have in our 273 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 9: film session too. I'm not in your film session. 274 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 8: But you guys have the worst record in the NBA. 275 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 4: Six minutes of that and when actually Russell Westbrook was 276 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 4: questioned about it, he didn't have actual receipts on what 277 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 4: people were saying. 278 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 3: But imagine this. 279 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 4: You just spent your night away from your family having 280 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 4: to take in Sacramento Kings basketball, and you get dressed 281 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 4: down by Russell Westbrook for what you're saying in a 282 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 4: postgame or an after game, in a blog on a 283 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 4: radio station in a newspaper, whatever the case may be. 284 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,559 Speaker 4: After you lose to the New Orleans Pelicans by ten, 285 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,439 Speaker 4: I just have no idea where Russell Westbrook is going. 286 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 4: I don't think he had receipts manci and the fact 287 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 4: that he's wondering why reporters aren't at practice or in 288 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 4: film rooms, it's just it's so ridiculous, and it felt 289 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 4: like Russell Westbrook just wanted to leave with his pound 290 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 4: of flesh and this poor innocent grouping who again had 291 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 4: to endure two hours of King's basketball then ended up 292 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 4: getting scolded afterwards. What an awful evening for anybody that 293 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:03,079 Speaker 4: covers the Sacramento Kay. 294 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, a lot of bad, a lot of bad, not 295 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 6: a lot of good, and. 296 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 5: Very little funny. But that I think it came from 297 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 5: somewhere real. It's just so he jumped the shark, like 298 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 5: I'm sure I feel like Russell Westbrook based on what 299 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 5: we know about him in his history, he seems to 300 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 5: be the guy to read comments, to read things that 301 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 5: are being written about him and the team, and so 302 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 5: obviously I think it does come from somewhere that he 303 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 5: read something is real. 304 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 6: But then he jumped the shark. 305 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 5: With all of the scolding and like are you at practice? 306 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 5: But like you said, when some people can't go into 307 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 5: your practice, right, they're not allowed to be there. Actually 308 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 5: only maybe like your beat reporters or those who are 309 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 5: part of your team. But you know, the people that 310 00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 5: are covering you from afar, all they can tell you 311 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 5: is that your team is not good. 312 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 6: You're not good, Like it has to be frustrating for 313 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 6: if you're Russell Westbrook. 314 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 4: I also left that exchange still not understanding what Russell 315 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 4: Westbrook wanted, and then we didn't play the whole thing. 316 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 4: I don't know if you wanted some grace for some 317 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 4: of the younger players and what. 318 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 6: They're going through, but it wasn't. 319 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 4: But it wasn't necessarily explained that way. It just felt 320 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 4: like it was an all out assault on the Kings 321 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 4: and what is happening with the Kings on the court 322 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 4: that Russell Westbrook had no receipts for Jason Stewart. 323 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 10: I remember reading a piece in his rookie year. So 324 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 10: he came out of UCLA as just kind of this 325 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 10: athletic guy and everything, but I don't think he was 326 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 10: like a polished basketball player yet. But I remember a 327 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 10: piece in SI And the reason I read it, remember 328 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 10: it is because we had him on the Jim Rome 329 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 10: Show soon after, and I remember the author of the 330 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 10: piece put up perfectly that Russell Westbrook treats every question 331 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 10: from the media like it's an accusation. And think about that. 332 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 10: I think that's twenty years ago, whenever he came out 333 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 10: and was a rookie. So over twenty years, this guy 334 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 10: has not learned that these battles with the media does 335 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,280 Speaker 10: nothing but make him look like a jerk. You would 336 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 10: think that over time he would have some kind of 337 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 10: a nuanced relationship with the media and fans. By the way, 338 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 10: because last year he made news for picking fights with 339 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 10: fans and that whole Westbrook thing, Like, this guy hasn't 340 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 10: learned anything over twenty years. 341 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 4: No, And I'll tell you what. There are some media markets. 342 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 4: This happens way more in college than it does in 343 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 4: the pros. But Sacramento, and it's not to say that 344 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 4: Sacramento is a small town. The point is they're the 345 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 4: only show in town. So when the only show in 346 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 4: town is fourteen and fifty, sometimes the team has a 347 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 4: lot to say. When you get in some college towns, 348 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 4: the university and let's just say the Kansas men's basketball 349 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 4: program like that runs the news in Lawrence. Whatever is 350 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 4: happening is about Kansas basketball. And it's actually difficult to 351 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 4: be a reporter in those spots because, and I'm just 352 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 4: using Kansas as an example, the university dominates so much 353 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 4: that if you have a descending or a comment that 354 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 4: isn't pro university or pro the athletics, it's a tough 355 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 4: spot to be as a reporter. Not try to be 356 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 4: in Sacramento when your team's fourteen and fifty and doing 357 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 4: your job, like there's what else are you gonna talk about? 358 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,959 Speaker 4: You're gona talk about the a's upcoming season for like 359 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 4: what like it is a It is a tough spot. 360 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 4: So for Russell Westbrook to attack the media like that. 361 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 4: And if it was in New York, or if it 362 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 4: was in Philadelphia, or if it was in DC or Chicago, 363 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 4: you can actually maybe side with Russell Westbrook a little bit, 364 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 4: but there's just no way in signing and why he's 365 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 4: trying to take it out on the Sacramento media totally. 366 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,679 Speaker 5: I again, I like Russell Westbrook and hearing this, it 367 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 5: was like, what do you want them to say? 368 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 6: Good? Good? 369 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 5: Try Like it's almost like he wants like a good 370 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:45,680 Speaker 5: job for trying, but it's like, no, you've looked bad. 371 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 6: You've looked not you, Russell Westbrook. 372 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 5: The Kings have looked bad this entire season, and then 373 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 5: with all the injuries. 374 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 6: I don't even know who plays alongside Russell Westbrook, you 375 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. Everybody else is injured. 376 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 5: So I just it just seemed like he wanted the 377 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 5: reports or the stories to be like, yeah, the Kings 378 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 5: aren't good, but boy are they trying. 379 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 6: They're really trying. They're going out there every day. 380 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 5: And it's like, but that's again, I love Russell Westbrook 381 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 5: and it didn't make them. 382 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 6: Look good at all. 383 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 4: Have your ownership in GM's fight those battles, and I 384 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 4: understand that there's a responsibility as a vet, but I 385 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 4: also felt like he wanted that conflict. I saw a 386 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 4: TikTok of a guy wanting to fight someone in a 387 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 4: parking lot with a whole group around him for three 388 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 4: and a half minutes, and he just danced around and 389 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 4: did some like you know, karate sort of moves. There 390 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 4: was zero fight whatsoever, And that's what it felt like. 391 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 4: That's what it felt like with Russell Westbrook. There's your 392 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 4: twenty four hours in the NBA. She's Watty Belanio, so 393 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 4: I'm dan by her.

Or is that? 413 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 12: Or does Tim Kirchin still believe you? 414 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 11: Baldo him Andez his heavy fastball was better than Marianna Rivers. 415 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 1: Put you on the spot. 416 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:45,919 Speaker 3: To me, oh my god, well. 417 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 12: I must have been drunk when I said that, because. 418 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 1: It is You're never drunk. 419 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 12: E Baldo Jmenez. 420 00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 13: Baldo Jimenez had an amazing first half of a season 421 00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 13: years ago, and people were actually saying he had a 422 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 13: pitch that nobody has ever seen before and ever thrown before, 423 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 13: to which I was sitting with Oral herscheizer at the time, 424 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 13: who knows a little bit about pitching. 425 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,239 Speaker 12: He looked at me and he goes, Tim, there is 426 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 12: no pitch. 427 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 13: That is being thrown today that has never been thrown before. 428 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 13: So if I said that I was, I was wrong 429 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 13: by one hundred miles. 430 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 12: That guy had great stuff. 431 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 13: But Mariano's cutter is arguably the greatest pitch because it's 432 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 13: really the only pitch he threw. He's the greatest closer 433 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 13: of all time. There is not a close second. I 434 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 13: will tell you though, that Paul Richards the one of 435 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 13: the great baseball men of all time. I really got 436 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,880 Speaker 13: to know him in eighty two when he was with 437 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 13: the Rangers as the assistant general manager. He told me 438 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 13: that Hoyt Wilhelm's knuckleball was the greatest pitch in the 439 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 13: history of baseball, because he said, the umpire couldn't call it, 440 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 13: the catcher couldn't catch it, and the hitter couldn't hit 441 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 13: it when Hoyt Wilhelm threw his great knuckleball. 442 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 12: But since I never saw that like I. 443 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 13: Saw Mariano's, I will say Mariano's cutter is the best 444 00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 13: pitch in the history of baseball. I stand corrected. I 445 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 13: don't ever remember saying that. If I did, I apologize. 446 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: I mean this vulture. I hey, Jesus, he said it 447 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 1: in the moment. Who cares? I mean, tim, When was 448 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 1: the last time you were hammered?

I'm a grown man, but 450 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 12: it's been a long time. 451 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 13: It doesn't do me any good. I weigh one hundred 452 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 13: and forty pounds. I can't I can't hold anything. I 453 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 13: get buzzed very easily, which is why I don't drink 454 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 13: very often, because it doesn't do me any good. But 455 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 13: and my voice goes to a different octave when I 456 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,640 Speaker 13: get that way, and it's already at a preposterously high 457 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 13: octave to begin with, so I try to stay away 458 00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 13: from it. 459 00:21:59,000 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 9: Tim. 460 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 7: First off, I just want to say I love you. 461 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 7: I love baseball.

He taught me everything I needed 475 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 13: to know about baseball and everything else.

He couldn't hit it. He 494 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 13: couldn't even come close. But you guys, and neither could I. 495 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 12: It's a knuckleball. 496 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 13: So Billy has to come to the mound Tommy Jane, 497 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:08,400 Speaker 13: and I think that's his name. 498 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 12: Sorry, Thomas Jane played Mantle. 499 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 13: Yeah, sorry, So he comes to the Billy comes to 500 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,439 Speaker 13: the mound during the filming and says, Tom, Okay, we 501 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 13: have a problem here. 502 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,479 Speaker 12: It's called it's called tape. 503 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 13: We don't have enough tape for you to keep throwing knuckleball, 504 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 13: So throw like a softer knuckleball, one that he might hit. 505 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 12: So he throws like twenty of those. 506 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 13: He still can't hit it, and then he hits Tommy 507 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 13: Jane with a pitch and knocks. 508 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 12: And now the entire crew. 509 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 13: Has run out, thinking that Tom candiott And killed the 510 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:43,679 Speaker 13: star of the show because he hit him with a pitch. 511 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 13: So Tommy Jane is lying there and Tom Candiotty looks 512 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:52,160 Speaker 13: down at him and says, I threw that pitch at 513 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 13: fifty miles an hour. And Tommy Jane said that means 514 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 13: I should get up right, And he said, yeah, you 515 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 13: should get up now. So he saved the day by 516 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 13: throwing a softer knuckleball, but he never did put the 517 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 13: ball in play. All they needed was a ball put 518 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 13: in play, and he couldn't do it. So finally Billy Crystal, 519 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 13: using the magic of photography, rolled the ball up the 520 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 13: first baseline and made it look like he actually hit 521 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 13: it when he really didn't. That's another reason I love 522 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 13: sixty one because it was just so authentic. 523 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: Wow, what an answer for Taylor. I mean, Tim, you 524 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: love baseball more than anyone. I know you care about 525 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 1: this game. You know the game better than any one, 526 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 1: and I'm certain that the thought of a workstopage drives 527 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: you crazy. But are we headed towards one? Let me 528 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,639 Speaker 1: ask it this way, Tied, do you think there should 529 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,439 Speaker 1: be a salary cap at Major League Baseball? And do 530 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 1: you think we'll ever arrive at a place where we 531 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: have a salary cap in Major League Baseball? 532 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 9: All Right? 533 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 13: I don't think we're gonna have a salary cap anytime soon. 534 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 13: If you can prove to me that a salary cap 535 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 13: will make the game better. 536 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 12: Then I will be on board. But I'm not sold 537 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:11,479 Speaker 12: on that. 538 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 13: Stu Gott's I covered the eighty one strike that was 539 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 13: forty five years ago, and we're still arguing pretty much 540 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 13: about the same thing. Yes, and if the owners think 541 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 13: that the players are going to agree to a salary cap, 542 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 13: they are mistaken. And if they hold out until they 543 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 13: get a salary cap, we will definitely have a work 544 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 13: stoppage in twenty twenty seven, and who knows how long 545 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 13: it could last. I spoke to someone the other day 546 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 13: who would probably know better than a lot of people 547 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 13: where we are, and he said, I have never seen 548 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 13: the two sides this far apart with. 549 00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 12: Ten eleven months away from where we have to get to. 550 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 12: So I was very. 551 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 13: Discouraged to hear that. I want no part of a 552 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 13: work stoppage. Baseball should want no part of a work stoppage. 553 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,160 Speaker 13: But at the moment it is not looking good. 554 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 7: Tim Nobody would argue I don't think that the Dodgers 555 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 7: are the best team on paper this season as we 556 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 7: get closer to opening Day, But who would you argue 557 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 7: as the second best team in baseball? 558 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,000 Speaker 12: That is a great question. 559 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 13: Yes, I think the Phillies have a chance to be 560 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 13: really good, but a few things have to turn that 561 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 13: as Zach Wheeler has to come back earlier in the 562 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 13: expected and then be great the whole year. That's a 563 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 13: lot to ask. I'm not sure there is a great 564 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 13: team in the American League. But I just saw Seattle 565 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 13: and the Mariners' pitching is so so good starting pitching especially, 566 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 13: and they added to their lineup, so they might be 567 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 13: the best team in the American League. And I just 568 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 13: saw the Tigers, and the Tigers have really good starting 569 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 13: pitching led by Trek Scouble and now from Ervaldez. So 570 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 13: I would say, right now it would be it would 571 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 13: be the Phillies, the Tigers, or the Mariners. 572 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 12: So I have to pick one. 573 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 13: I'll say Seattle is the second best team in baseball 574 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 13: right now. 575 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: Tim, How do you feel about what the Mets did 576 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: here in the offseason? Do the Mets get a lot better? 577 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 13: They'll be They'll be a lot better than last year 578 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 13: when they were obviously a disappointment. It does worry me 579 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 13: a little bit for their sake that they have added 580 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 13: so many new people to the team. It's going to 581 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 13: take a little while to figure out if you know, 582 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 13: Polanco can play first base and Boba Schett can play 583 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 13: third base, And how injured is Francisco Lindor. He says 584 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 13: he'll be back on opening Day, but that hammate bone 585 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 13: is a tricky situation. A new center fielder in Luis Roberts, 586 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:07,120 Speaker 13: So I just don't know if I think they have 587 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 13: a real chance to be a playoff team in the 588 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 13: National League. 589 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 12: So that makes them better than last year. 590 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 13: I just worry when it comes to corny things like chemistry. 591 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 13: Did they add too many pieces or all the pieces 592 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 13: going to fit together at the right time. 593 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 12: That's where I think we are with the Mets. 594 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: Timmy, We'll get you out here in just a second. 595 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 1: Do you love the World Baseball Classic? It's somewhat It 596 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: feels so much different than the regular season. 597 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 12: Obviously, Yeah, I love it. Stu Gotts. 598 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 13: It has grown on me. At the beginning, I wasn't 599 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 13: sure about it. You know, how is this going to 600 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,520 Speaker 13: work in spring training? We're stealing guys from teams. Are 601 00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 13: they going to play their best? Are they going to 602 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 13: play their hardest? But it has won me over the 603 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 13: last one did I covered a bunch of games at 604 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 13: Chase Field in Arizona, and it was like I would 605 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 13: go outside after the game and it was like there 606 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 13: was a party taking place on the streets of Phoenix 607 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 13: after that because the people, even with teams that weren't 608 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 13: winning this thing, we're just so excited to be there 609 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 13: and support their country. And now that I believe the 610 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 13: Americans are now in with both feet trying to win 611 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 13: this thing, and with the Dominicans and with the Japanese, 612 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 13: oh my god, what a great thing this will be. 613 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 13: So yes, I love the WBC. It has grown on me. 614 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 13: It's a great idea. I just hope nobody gets hurt 615 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 13: and affects the regular Major league season. 616 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 1: Final question, I get you ot here. Taylor sent me 617 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: a video before Otani had five RBIs and was a 618 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: triple shy of the cycle in the second inning. Is 619 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 1: sho he Otani the greatest baseball player you've ever seen? Tim? 620 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 1: I hear a lot of people saying it, Timmy. That's 621 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: why I'm asking you. 622 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 13: I did I saw Willy Mays and Willie Mays did 623 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,520 Speaker 13: it for twenty years, so I'm still going to go 624 00:30:56,360 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 13: with Willie Mays. But there's never been anybody like show A. 625 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 13: And I always say Babe Ruth is the greatest player 626 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 13: of all time. I still believe that based on his 627 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 13: dominance pitching and hitting when he played. But there's never 628 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 13: been anybody like show A. Someday I believe he will 629 00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 13: be the greatest player of all time, and that day 630 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 13: is coming soon. I mean, Babe Ruth was great. I 631 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 13: really believe in nineteen twenty, if there was a DH 632 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 13: in the American League, Bab Ruth would have hit fifty 633 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,320 Speaker 13: homers and won twenty games. But he didn't throw one 634 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 13: hundred miles an hour. He didn't hit pitches routinely thrown 635 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 13: at one hundred miles an hour, and I hate. 636 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 12: Eggs and velocity. 637 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 13: But he didn't hit the ball off the bat quite 638 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 13: as hard as show A did. So that's why there's 639 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 13: never been anyone like him, and I don't think there 640 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 13: will ever be anybody like him again. It's remarkable. Every 641 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 13: single day I watch him play, it is breathtaking. 642 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: Yep, well there's nobody like you. Is this a great 643 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: game or what? That's the podcast? Check it out wherever 644 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: you get your podcast.
