0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.520
<v Speaker 1>You are listening to The Dan Patrick Show on Fox

0:00:03.560 --> 0:00:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Sports Radio. That's funny. That's not the right music, not

0:00:07.320 --> 0:00:09.880
<v Speaker 1>the call, not like anything else that happened. I'm like, man,

0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:13.200
<v Speaker 1>that's funny. I wonder what happens? Oh yeah, yes, Paul.

0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Just to stay with the theme, the Islanders twenty two

0:00:15.000 --> 0:00:16.799
<v Speaker 1>and eight on the season, Dan won three straight than

0:00:19.720 --> 0:00:22.160
<v Speaker 1>they lead the East by two points over wall, break

0:00:22.200 --> 0:00:27.200
<v Speaker 1>it down, Yeah, welcome to the program already in progress, Seaton, Paul,

0:00:27.280 --> 0:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>Fritzie mclovin, yours truly here on The Dan Patrick Show.

0:00:30.240 --> 0:00:35.040
<v Speaker 1>NBA trade deadline came went fair amount of noise, but

0:00:35.159 --> 0:00:39.320
<v Speaker 1>not clear if the title picture changed by any stretch

0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:41.680
<v Speaker 1>of the imagination, and some of the contenders added some

0:00:41.720 --> 0:00:46.080
<v Speaker 1>pieces there, but probably not enough to drastically shift the odds.

0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>In fact, I do have the updated odds of winning

0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:54.240
<v Speaker 1>the championship after the trade deadline. Here we go the

0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Brooklyn Nets, who is still the favorites, followed by the Lakers.

0:00:58.520 --> 0:01:01.120
<v Speaker 1>Do you guys want to guess who would be third

0:01:01.120 --> 0:01:06.080
<v Speaker 1>on that list? Without looking the big german just put

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:09.759
<v Speaker 1>up the odds. So in case you saw that, can

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:12.360
<v Speaker 1>we start the show over? Can we can we start

0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 1>it over here. I don't know if we can. Can

0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:16.560
<v Speaker 1>we run the open this time around? And said our

0:01:16.640 --> 0:01:23.399
<v Speaker 1>play of the day? I think so, um, yeah, do

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.039
<v Speaker 1>you want to try it? Like three? Oh? Wait, hold on,

0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:28.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm just fixing every other hour of the show real quick,

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:31.959
<v Speaker 1>so I don't care that again. And I could theoretically

0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:34.800
<v Speaker 1>you could theoretically do that. Yeah, I mean if you

0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:37.880
<v Speaker 1>want to spend the next two minutes listening to well,

0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:40.960
<v Speaker 1>is it a good open? Is it? Is it? Funny?

0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:44.720
<v Speaker 1>Good morningful morning? Game? In a day in that morning,

0:01:45.640 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>another day, another Dan Patrick show. If you'd like to

0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:52.240

0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:03.800
<v Speaker 1>sports talk on the air. All right, so far, so yeah,

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:10.240
<v Speaker 1>got the bells. Here's the Friday Open. This is gonna

0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:12.720
<v Speaker 1>be really good. I'm trying it. Would it be great

0:02:12.720 --> 0:02:15.200
<v Speaker 1>if we just had one really big trade at the

0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:19.200
<v Speaker 1>trade deadline? Aaron Gordon? Where would he fit? The Denver nugget?

0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Kyle Lowry will remain with the Raptors Chicago as a team,

0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:25.240
<v Speaker 1>will walk here the bigger Oladipo whom he's a Miami Heat.

0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:28.919
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Dan Patrick Show. You know, let's bring

0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:31.080
<v Speaker 1>in Frank and so what about the Nets so that

0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:33.240
<v Speaker 1>they could be a team in the buyout market. There's

0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:35.840
<v Speaker 1>been talking about maybe JJ Reddick. Andre Drummond is still

0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:39.040
<v Speaker 1>out there. Everyone's gonna be trying to make moves. Nobody

0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:41.640
<v Speaker 1>is acquiring a player like the Nets are going to

0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:45.119
<v Speaker 1>get back and Kevin Durant. And Kevin Durant is invested

0:02:45.160 --> 0:02:48.760
<v Speaker 1>from this standpoint, he knows there's only one satisfactory result,

0:02:48.960 --> 0:02:51.000
<v Speaker 1>and that's winning. That's why this team has been all in.

0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:54.359
<v Speaker 1>The Magic are moving towards a rebuild. It's like they're

0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:58.040
<v Speaker 1>making their relevance disappear. Hold on, dad, let me just

0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 1>try real quick. Al Kasan Magicians make things disappear. No,

0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:05.560
<v Speaker 1>Todd's still here, sorry, Orlando Magic making their relevance disappeared

0:03:05.560 --> 0:03:07.880
<v Speaker 1>by getting rid of it. This is Dan Patrick, Mercedes

0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:11.520
<v Speaker 1>benz Man cave all right. They had a little shot

0:03:11.560 --> 0:03:13.320
<v Speaker 1>there at Fritzie at the end, so it was worth

0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:17.480
<v Speaker 1>revisiting that. Yeah, yeah, welcome to Friday. It's a meat Friday,

0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.520
<v Speaker 1>but we have salmon on the tragers. Do we have

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:23.920
<v Speaker 1>anything meat related? For meat Friday. I saw where we

0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:29.400
<v Speaker 1>had buffalo chicken dip chicken. So salmon's not meat, I

0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:34.280
<v Speaker 1>guess be fish Friday. Yeah, damon steaks. But it is lent.

0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:37.800
<v Speaker 1>We're doing We're doing our part there. I actually had

0:03:37.840 --> 0:03:42.760
<v Speaker 1>no idea. Yeah, yeah, we did. Seaton pointed that out. Alrighty,

0:03:43.080 --> 0:03:46.280
<v Speaker 1>welcome to the program. As I mentioned, there was some

0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:49.200
<v Speaker 1>noise during the NBA trade trade deadline. The Nets are

0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:52.360
<v Speaker 1>still the favorites in the East. The Lakers still the

0:03:52.400 --> 0:03:55.080
<v Speaker 1>favorites in the West. The odds that I gave you

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:58.480
<v Speaker 1>the Nets, then the Lakers. Who wants to guess third

0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:02.040
<v Speaker 1>on the list of odds to win the championship? They

0:04:02.080 --> 0:04:08.320
<v Speaker 1>did make a move yesterday. McLevin Denver, Nuggets, No Guy,

0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:16.200
<v Speaker 1>Nike lad joke, No, No, Bollie, it can't be Miami. No. No,

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:24.600
<v Speaker 1>the Jazz right still no Bucks? Oh huh oh, the Sixers. No,

0:04:26.400 --> 0:04:29.880
<v Speaker 1>the Clippers. Wow, the Clippers are third on the list

0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:33.360
<v Speaker 1>with odds to win the championship. There to win the championship,

0:04:33.560 --> 0:04:37.720
<v Speaker 1>the NBA Championship. Yes, did the odds makers watch last

0:04:37.800 --> 0:04:41.680
<v Speaker 1>year's playoffs? Look, I don't agree with it, but you

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:46.760
<v Speaker 1>got Rajon Rondo Okay, that didn't change the odds. They're

0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.560
<v Speaker 1>still the third favorite there. Then the Bucks, then the

0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Utah Jazz, the seventy Sixers, the Nuggets, Phoenix Suns, Boston Celtics,

0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Miami Heat, Doallas Mavericks, and the Indiana Pacers. Yes, do

0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:01.360
<v Speaker 1>this Rondo thing and you opinion is gonna be awesome

0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:04.919
<v Speaker 1>or sideways? What happens first there? I think it's just average.

0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:07.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't you know he's a Clipper and all right,

0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:10.480
<v Speaker 1>they got a point guard and we know about playoff Rondo.

0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:15.440
<v Speaker 1>But okay, so what It doesn't really change my opinion much.

0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:21.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Rondo averages four points a game. Can you

0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:26.280
<v Speaker 1>think of a guy who averages, you know, less than

0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:28.640
<v Speaker 1>five points a game who gets as much attention as

0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:31.919
<v Speaker 1>Rajon Rondo does. He's a future Hall of Famer, but

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:34.960
<v Speaker 1>he averages I think four points a game. You probably

0:05:35.000 --> 0:05:38.800
<v Speaker 1>didn't even know he was in Atlanta and Lou Williams

0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:42.839
<v Speaker 1>going back to Atlanta, and you know he loves Atlanta,

0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:47.359
<v Speaker 1>especially the Wings. But Lou Williams, Lou Williams is one

0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:50.279
<v Speaker 1>of those great scores but doesn't do anything else and

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:54.560
<v Speaker 1>sort of disappears in the postseason. That doesn't help you

0:05:54.600 --> 0:05:56.440
<v Speaker 1>if you're the LA Clippers once you get to the

0:05:56.480 --> 0:05:59.679
<v Speaker 1>postseason and you're going to rely on your bench for scoring,

0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:01.599
<v Speaker 1>and then and all of a sudden, your bench sort

0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:07.080
<v Speaker 1>of disappears. But Rajon Rondo, Okay, but I don't think

0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 1>if the Lakers are healthy, I don't think the Lakers

0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:12.599
<v Speaker 1>are blinking when it comes to this. Now. Rondo was

0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:15.960
<v Speaker 1>very good last year. He was very clutch last year.

0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:18.599
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think it changes anything this year. Yes,

0:06:19.080 --> 0:06:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Hall of Famer Rajon Rondo, Yeah, I think so. Really,

0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:26.839
<v Speaker 1>I think so wow. I think so. I mean, the

0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:30.920
<v Speaker 1>numbers aren't great, but I do think. I mean, he's

0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:37.359
<v Speaker 1>had longevity, he's got a couple of titles, leader on

0:06:37.440 --> 0:06:42.840
<v Speaker 1>the floor, one of the smartest guys to ever play. Yes,

0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I think he's Hall of guys you'd want on your team.

0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:48.560
<v Speaker 1>Maybe not Hall of Fame McLevin, what do you think?

0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:50.479
<v Speaker 1>I think, no brainer, hall of Famer, not no brainer.

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:54.080
<v Speaker 1>But I do because the media really respects him. For

0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:56.800
<v Speaker 1>four All Star appearances, four All staris I think he's

0:06:56.839 --> 0:06:59.640
<v Speaker 1>ledily going to assist. It's a playoff success. Even last

0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:02.159
<v Speaker 1>year put the Icyrm the cake because he shot so

0:07:02.240 --> 0:07:04.280
<v Speaker 1>well in that bubble. Remember you could hit a three

0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:06.440
<v Speaker 1>last year out of no I know his shot actually

0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:09.600
<v Speaker 1>looked decent. Adam Lefco NBA on TNT host will join

0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:12.680
<v Speaker 1>us coming up. Clark Kellogg will stop by as we

0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 1>get ready for basketball coming up this weekend. But I

0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:19.800
<v Speaker 1>mentioned the odds and did anybody really improve their team?

0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:22.040
<v Speaker 1>I think the Nuggets became more of a threat. They

0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:25.360
<v Speaker 1>added Aaron Gordon there, and the Heat got Victor Oladipot.

0:07:25.440 --> 0:07:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how good he is anymore. Kyle Lowry

0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:31.239
<v Speaker 1>stays in Toronto. That's what I said yesterday. How awkward

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:34.400
<v Speaker 1>is this going to be? That it felt like everybody

0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:38.400
<v Speaker 1>thought he was leaving Toronto. Drake face times during his

0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:43.080
<v Speaker 1>press conference standing ovation best raptor of all time, and

0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:46.679
<v Speaker 1>then all of a sudden, Kyle Lowry's not traded. Lonzo

0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:50.120
<v Speaker 1>Ball is still a Pilican. There's still some small moves

0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:54.000
<v Speaker 1>and probably some contracts to buy out, but no more

0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:56.720
<v Speaker 1>saviors coming for better or for worst. Teams are set

0:07:57.000 --> 0:08:00.560
<v Speaker 1>and here you go, got about two months left in

0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:03.480
<v Speaker 1>the regular season, and we'll see how old of this

0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:07.080
<v Speaker 1>plays out. Yes, Polly, you threw out about Rondo. How

0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:08.760
<v Speaker 1>a guy who averages four points a game or gets

0:08:08.800 --> 0:08:11.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot of covers lot. I think the if you're

0:08:11.880 --> 0:08:14.120
<v Speaker 1>looking at a player who got a lot of covers,

0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:15.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot of pub and is at a house almost

0:08:15.760 --> 0:08:18.600
<v Speaker 1>a household name. This guy averaged seven points a game

0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.160
<v Speaker 1>and barely started in his NBA career, started less than

0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:25.280
<v Speaker 1>half the games. Robert Ory. He's got seven rings. Yeah,

0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:27.680
<v Speaker 1>never even came close to an All Star game, not

0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:29.760
<v Speaker 1>even close. And not a Hall of Famer, not even

0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:31.360
<v Speaker 1>close to a Hall of Famer. He never averaged more

0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:35.800
<v Speaker 1>than twelve points a game. Yeah, household name though. Yeah Yeah,

0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:55.839
<v Speaker 1>NBA trades. The Lakers lost again, the Bucks have won

0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:58.679
<v Speaker 1>eight in a row. There's an opening with the Olkloma

0:08:58.760 --> 0:09:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Basketball Sweet sixteen starts Saturday afternoon. What do you have? Okay,

0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:05.240
<v Speaker 1>I have a poul question that will probably bore the

0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:08.000
<v Speaker 1>audience to death. But I had this debate in the

0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:11.400
<v Speaker 1>back room yesterday in this morning, which of these teams

0:09:11.480 --> 0:09:14.160
<v Speaker 1>falls out of the top eight in the NBA East.

0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:17.600
<v Speaker 1>So basically, the Bulls loaded up and you'd think that

0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:19.120
<v Speaker 1>they're going to move up in the playoffs. That means

0:09:19.160 --> 0:09:21.520
<v Speaker 1>the Hornets are the four seed right now and they

0:09:21.559 --> 0:09:24.720
<v Speaker 1>lost LaMelo Ball. The Knicks are the five seeds somehow,

0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:28.000
<v Speaker 1>the Hawks are the sixth seed, the Heat are the

0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:29.920
<v Speaker 1>seventh seed at twenty two and twenty three, and then

0:09:29.920 --> 0:09:33.560
<v Speaker 1>the Celtics are at the eight seed. So then you

0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:36.720
<v Speaker 1>have the Pacers, Bulls and Raptors coming up behind them.

0:09:36.760 --> 0:09:39.480
<v Speaker 1>I like to me, it seems weird like the Hornets

0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:42.000
<v Speaker 1>and the Knicks and the Hawks all feel like they

0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 1>could fall out of this playoff picture. Well, the Hawks

0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:49.120
<v Speaker 1>were trading Rondo and they wanted to trade John Collins,

0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:51.560
<v Speaker 1>and here they are in the playoff mix, which is odd.

0:09:52.040 --> 0:09:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Like I understand what Orlando's doing. They just decided to detonate.

0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:57.440
<v Speaker 1>They took the wrecking ball to the franchise and then

0:09:57.480 --> 0:10:01.920
<v Speaker 1>they'll try to rebuild. But it Atlanta, you're starting, you're

0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.640
<v Speaker 1>kind of in and kind of out, and that's not

0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:06.400
<v Speaker 1>a good place to be. I mean, you want to

0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:09.080
<v Speaker 1>make the playoffs. But you don't want to be in

0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:12.720
<v Speaker 1>there as a team that wins, you know, forty games

0:10:13.840 --> 0:10:17.840
<v Speaker 1>and who they have. It feels like they were building

0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:20.960
<v Speaker 1>a younger roster there. But I have no idea. They

0:10:21.000 --> 0:10:24.280
<v Speaker 1>don't feel threatening the Knicks. It's amazing they're in the

0:10:24.280 --> 0:10:26.800
<v Speaker 1>playoff fiction, but that's how bad the East is this year.

0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Do I think Indiana gets better? Miami gets better? Yes?

0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:34.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, do the Knicks do anything? Does Andre Drummond

0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:37.680
<v Speaker 1>go to a team and that helps that team substantially?

0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:40.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Yeah. What about the Bulls? Are they

0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:45.400
<v Speaker 1>they did? Okay? They did? Okay? Voussovich is a good player,

0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:49.959
<v Speaker 1>an older player, but that'll help Zach Levine. And can

0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:53.439
<v Speaker 1>they be a playoff team? I mean it's a nice pickup.

0:10:53.640 --> 0:10:56.040
<v Speaker 1>I think Voussovich is like thirty one years of age,

0:10:56.040 --> 0:11:00.000
<v Speaker 1>but he's average twenty five and twelve. Those are hollow

0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:03.120
<v Speaker 1>numbers on a bad team, but they're still pretty good numbers.

0:11:04.040 --> 0:11:06.080
<v Speaker 1>What about the Raptors are they are they going for

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:08.600
<v Speaker 1>now that they kept Kyle Lowry? Why they keep Kyle Lowry?

0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:12.920
<v Speaker 1>I haven't heard going for? What getting into playoffs? Well,

0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:15.600
<v Speaker 1>they didn't. They didn't keep Lowry because they wanted to

0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:18.720
<v Speaker 1>keep Lowry. It's nobody wanted to take on Lowry, who

0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 1>then is gonna want a contract extension? And they've lost

0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:24.800
<v Speaker 1>nine of ten, so I don't think they're going for anything.

0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:29.560
<v Speaker 1>Does the PA announcer the next home game say, and

0:11:29.800 --> 0:11:37.320
<v Speaker 1>in guard still a raptor? Kyle Lowry. We didn't think

0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:41.319
<v Speaker 1>he was gonna be here, but he is, Kyle Laurie.

0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:44.360
<v Speaker 1>We shopped him all over the place, and nobody wanted

0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:48.480
<v Speaker 1>to take on that contract. Say hello again to Kyle

0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Lowe Rady, what else do you have? By the way,

0:11:56.160 --> 0:12:00.959
<v Speaker 1>Rajon Rondo is sixth all time in WHO season assist.

0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:07.680
<v Speaker 1>Magic is one, Lebron is two, John Stockton, Jason Kidd,

0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:12.840
<v Speaker 1>Tony Parker, Rajon Rondo. That's a pretty good list there,

0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:18.120
<v Speaker 1>Tony Parker hall of Famer, right, yes, yeah, everybody on

0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:19.559
<v Speaker 1>that list the Hall of Famer. It sounds like a

0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:25.959
<v Speaker 1>bunch of dudes who had good teammates. Yeah, Magic had

0:12:25.960 --> 0:12:30.200
<v Speaker 1>worthy of it. Give you the score? Wow, Hey, I

0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:32.520
<v Speaker 1>can't score you score? Yeah, I'm not gonna supersue to

0:12:32.559 --> 0:12:34.960
<v Speaker 1>you do it. Delante West gave Lebron all those assists.

0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:37.600
<v Speaker 1>We know that, m and what else do you have

0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:41.080
<v Speaker 1>oh okay uh for our LA audience? Is it time

0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:45.040
<v Speaker 1>to panic? Question Mark? I was shoot in the game yesterday.

0:12:45.720 --> 0:12:47.920
<v Speaker 1>That is a tough roster right now. And they said Lebron,

0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:50.080
<v Speaker 1>they don't know what he's coming back now, it's three

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:53.240
<v Speaker 1>to five weeks. Anthony Davis, we don't know when he's

0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:58.080
<v Speaker 1>coming back. I would think just the seeding part of this. Now.

0:12:58.120 --> 0:13:00.480
<v Speaker 1>I thought the Lakers were gonna make it a strong

0:13:00.520 --> 0:13:03.719
<v Speaker 1>push for Kyle Lowry. But if you get Lowry, then

0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:05.360
<v Speaker 1>who do you give up? And then you give up

0:13:05.400 --> 0:13:08.720
<v Speaker 1>some of your depth and you don't have draft picks

0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:12.000
<v Speaker 1>because you sent those to the Pelicans for Anthony Davis.

0:13:13.640 --> 0:13:16.559
<v Speaker 1>When everybody's healthy, they're still the team to beat in

0:13:16.600 --> 0:13:20.359
<v Speaker 1>the West. Would Kyle Lowry have made them more formidable,

0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:23.400
<v Speaker 1>a better starting lineup? But I don't know if it

0:13:23.400 --> 0:13:27.280
<v Speaker 1>would have made them. You know, Kyle Lowry can shoot threes,

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:32.280
<v Speaker 1>he's good in the postseason. But I think they were

0:13:32.280 --> 0:13:34.280
<v Speaker 1>trying to weigh how much do we give up? And

0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:36.480
<v Speaker 1>how much is too much for a guy who has

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:40.760
<v Speaker 1>an expiring contract and Kyle Lowry's gonna want a big

0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:43.439
<v Speaker 1>number here. Do you want a guy who's just a rental.

0:13:43.559 --> 0:13:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I think that's what it came down to for a

0:13:45.440 --> 0:13:47.640
<v Speaker 1>lot of these teams. Yample. I just think about this

0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:50.040
<v Speaker 1>because we're all pretty surprised to see the Clippers odds

0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:53.120
<v Speaker 1>so far up. Would anybody here or would anybody take

0:13:53.160 --> 0:13:55.440
<v Speaker 1>the Clippers over the Lakers right now in a bet

0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:58.320
<v Speaker 1>to win the West, even though the guys are injured.

0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:00.880
<v Speaker 1>I think the faith in Lebron is so high then

0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:02.559
<v Speaker 1>he'll come back. Then he'll do what it takes to

0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:04.920
<v Speaker 1>do it well. Anthony Davis has to come back. Yeah,

0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:06.440
<v Speaker 1>but if you had to put a bet right now,

0:14:06.440 --> 0:14:09.360
<v Speaker 1>who goes further in the playoffs, Lakers are Clippers. I

0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:13.040
<v Speaker 1>think people would still bet Lakers. Yeah, weirdly, but it's

0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:15.480
<v Speaker 1>one thing to have Lebron back. If Lebron doesn't have

0:14:15.520 --> 0:14:17.680
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Davis. It's the same thing I said last year.

0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:20.960
<v Speaker 1>With Anthony Davis, you win the championship without him, You're

0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:25.320
<v Speaker 1>not winning the championship, just not. There's some good teams

0:14:25.320 --> 0:14:29.760
<v Speaker 1>in the West, and if they're seated six or seven,

0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:33.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, and that's different now. It's you're not playing

0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:36.200
<v Speaker 1>in a bubble where there is no home court advantage.

0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:39.400
<v Speaker 1>You're still traveling to these Cities. You're going to their

0:14:39.440 --> 0:14:43.680
<v Speaker 1>home court. That's a big deal. Now, can he beat everybody? Yes,

0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:47.400
<v Speaker 1>they can. But then the Nets, when they get healthy,

0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:51.760
<v Speaker 1>at least we assume they're going to get healthy, Are

0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:54.360
<v Speaker 1>they the team to beat. I still like the Lakers

0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:57.880
<v Speaker 1>over the Nets. Yeah, mclun But there's seven, seven or

0:14:57.920 --> 0:14:59.920
<v Speaker 1>eight weeks left in the season. If Lebron's out for

0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:02.240
<v Speaker 1>five weeks, that gets really scary, as it does because

0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:04.560
<v Speaker 1>you said without Davis, they can't with that. Without Lebron,

0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:06.680
<v Speaker 1>they might not even get out of the first round. Yeah,

0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:11.040
<v Speaker 1>gotta have Lebron, but Anthony Davis. It's one thing. Lebron

0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:14.680
<v Speaker 1>can take you only so far. Anthony Davis can take

0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:17.640
<v Speaker 1>you to a title. But if Anthony Davis is back

0:15:17.640 --> 0:15:20.200
<v Speaker 1>and Lebron isn't, you're not going to go to the title.

0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:22.600
<v Speaker 1>You're not gonna win a title either. You've got to

0:15:22.640 --> 0:15:24.480
<v Speaker 1>have both of those guys. Yeah, mcle What about the

0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Nuggets and Jazz? I group them together? These Mountain teams,

0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:30.520
<v Speaker 1>Like why aren't we talking about them as a favorite?

0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:35.000
<v Speaker 1>Or I think you just you want to see something

0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:37.640
<v Speaker 1>like I just want to see what you do when

0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:40.400
<v Speaker 1>you have to win. It's a big game. Who takes

0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:42.960
<v Speaker 1>the shot? Do you win the game you're supposed to win?

0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:47.360
<v Speaker 1>I haven't seen that yet, and that's why it's really

0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:49.800
<v Speaker 1>hard to be We've seen Kawhi do this, but I

0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:52.480
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen the Clippers do this. We've seen the Lakers

0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:56.080
<v Speaker 1>do this. You know, the Joker's wonderful, but you know,

0:15:56.560 --> 0:15:59.000
<v Speaker 1>what are they going to do in the postseason? Jamal Murray?

0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:01.360
<v Speaker 1>What did you know that? That's when I want to

0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:05.840
<v Speaker 1>see that. And until we see that, you know, I

0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:08.720
<v Speaker 1>think we'll be surprised if something like that happens. Yeah,

0:16:08.760 --> 0:16:11.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm a club. Also, we should mention Portland. I think

0:16:11.960 --> 0:16:14.560
<v Speaker 1>they did. They made a move yesterday, but they're kind

0:16:14.560 --> 0:16:17.400
<v Speaker 1>of hot. Are they even in the picture? Dame's playing

0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:20.000
<v Speaker 1>really well the sixth seed. I know, we have so

0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:23.680
<v Speaker 1>many fans of Portlands want to mention them. Yeah, Portland

0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:28.320
<v Speaker 1>is down the list. They're probably cash around twelfth as

0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:32.000
<v Speaker 1>far as the list. Who did they Yeah, they're at

0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:34.360
<v Speaker 1>an eighty five hundred, tied with the Pacers, which I

0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:36.280
<v Speaker 1>think they would be above that. I thought that they

0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:38.720
<v Speaker 1>were going to get Aaron Gordon. I thought that that

0:16:38.760 --> 0:16:41.720
<v Speaker 1>would be a great addition. But you know, Denver went out.

0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:43.960
<v Speaker 1>They were aggressive. They got him. They're pairing with Michael

0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:49.440
<v Speaker 1>Porter Jr. Um. But when that Portland roster is healthy,

0:16:49.960 --> 0:16:54.040
<v Speaker 1>you know that's a dangerous team. Right. They added Norman Piles, right, Yeah,

0:16:54.360 --> 0:16:56.240
<v Speaker 1>gues Bone. Two years ago they were in the Western

0:16:56.240 --> 0:17:00.440
<v Speaker 1>Conference finals, but they had the Durant lad Warrior. He's

0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:03.560

0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:48.679
<v Speaker 1>and the public is very very split. A turtleneck in

0:17:48.760 --> 0:17:54.120
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta in late March. Yes, Ah, he's got a sort

0:17:54.119 --> 0:17:57.359
<v Speaker 1>of a plaid coat underneath an orange just turtleneck. I

0:17:57.400 --> 0:18:00.400
<v Speaker 1>see where're going. If he was calling the game up north,

0:18:00.520 --> 0:18:04.639
<v Speaker 1>like in Minnesota in December, no problem. Jacket, Yeah, have

0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:06.600
<v Speaker 1>you ever done it? Have you ever worn a turtleneck

0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:10.359
<v Speaker 1>under a jacket like telecasting? I don't think so. Now,

0:18:10.440 --> 0:18:12.520
<v Speaker 1>back then we had to wear a shirt and tie.

0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:16.000
<v Speaker 1>We didn't. We didn't get to go casual like that

0:18:16.240 --> 0:18:19.639
<v Speaker 1>or pseudo casual. We always had to wear at least

0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:23.439
<v Speaker 1>a suit or the suit coat. We would wear shorts

0:18:23.440 --> 0:18:26.000
<v Speaker 1>sometimes in the fall or in the summer, I should say,

0:18:26.200 --> 0:18:30.479
<v Speaker 1>but no, not a big turtleneck guy to begin with,

0:18:30.880 --> 0:18:33.639
<v Speaker 1>all right, we'll take a break. We've got our poll question.

0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:36.600
<v Speaker 1>I believe mcletake. We're gonna go with an Adam left

0:18:36.600 --> 0:18:39.560
<v Speaker 1>Goo poll question. I have a tournament full question that

0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:43.159
<v Speaker 1>I'm saving too, n the Sweet sixteen. Why are you

0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:46.960
<v Speaker 1>saving it? Well, basically, what's better for the NCA if Gonzaga,

0:18:47.000 --> 0:18:49.200
<v Speaker 1>Balor and Michigan all win in advance or if one

0:18:49.200 --> 0:18:53.199
<v Speaker 1>of these like Loyola, I don't know, Oregon State. Do

0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:54.919
<v Speaker 1>we want do we want to see the favorites win

0:18:55.000 --> 0:18:57.640
<v Speaker 1>this weekend? Or do we want to see the underdogs. Well,

0:18:57.640 --> 0:19:00.160
<v Speaker 1>it'd be nice to have both, if you could, where

0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:01.879
<v Speaker 1>you had a couple of favorites and then a couple

0:19:01.880 --> 0:19:05.080
<v Speaker 1>of surprises sent around the stories. Yeah, because I gotta

0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:07.880
<v Speaker 1>be honest, I'm not so keen on tuning into Oregon State.

0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:10.880
<v Speaker 1>I know that's me, but like, I want to see

0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:13.639
<v Speaker 1>the favorites at this point. Well, there's no household team

0:19:13.680 --> 0:19:16.240
<v Speaker 1>where you go dukes in there. We don't have that.

0:19:16.640 --> 0:19:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Gunzag and Baylor are very good teams. Michigan, you know

0:19:22.080 --> 0:19:27.880
<v Speaker 1>their coach, But as far as Mussy TV, I don't

0:19:27.880 --> 0:19:30.280
<v Speaker 1>think you have that team. I mean, you have fun teams,

0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:32.520
<v Speaker 1>loyal as a fun team. They're not a Cinderella team.

0:19:33.000 --> 0:19:36.720
<v Speaker 1>They're they're a fun team. But you know, it's Houston.

0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Mussy TV is Oregon State is Oregon. Yeah, it's not

0:19:41.840 --> 0:19:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Musty TV. But I'm kind of curious to see how

0:19:43.840 --> 0:19:47.200
<v Speaker 1>far UCLA and USC can both go. Yeah yeah, yeah,

0:19:47.400 --> 0:19:50.639
<v Speaker 1>curiosity factor there, and you might fall in love with

0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:55.520
<v Speaker 1>one of these players. Yeah, I don't know. It's not

0:19:55.600 --> 0:19:57.639
<v Speaker 1>like I go, gosh, there's nobody really to watch. I

0:19:57.680 --> 0:20:00.720
<v Speaker 1>don't know if I'm gonna watch it. I mean, I'm

0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:04.119
<v Speaker 1>not that jaded I'd be like, all right, let's just

0:20:04.160 --> 0:20:07.360
<v Speaker 1>watch the game, see how it plays out. Fine of that. Yes,

0:20:08.680 --> 0:20:10.160
<v Speaker 1>got a lot of dude. I'm just doing a little

0:20:10.160 --> 0:20:11.800
<v Speaker 1>bit of research here. You got a lot of dudes

0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:16.280
<v Speaker 1>in the NBA wearing turtlenecks. Just saying guys who are

0:20:16.359 --> 0:20:20.719
<v Speaker 1>in the league are wearing turtlenecks. Oh yeah, but not host. Um,

0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:22.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I don't I don't have a host

0:20:22.520 --> 0:20:25.479
<v Speaker 1>brand NBA host breakdown. But I got players. You got

0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:31.320
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of them. Kyle Lowry, Um, Chris, Paul, Kevin Love, Lebron,

0:20:31.960 --> 0:20:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Devin Booker. Well in the winter turtleneck is okay. But

0:20:37.359 --> 0:20:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Kyle Kuzma, but see when you're on when when you're

0:20:40.680 --> 0:20:45.000
<v Speaker 1>on the set, it's really warm no matter where you are,

0:20:45.080 --> 0:20:48.000
<v Speaker 1>the lights are really warm when you're on the set,

0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:54.360
<v Speaker 1>And I would think the turtlenick not in my wheelhouse. Yeah, Paul.

0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:57.399
<v Speaker 1>Dwayne Wade stoked up the turtleneck around twenty thirteen checking

0:20:57.400 --> 0:20:59.520
<v Speaker 1>my records, and he really made a place and said,

0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:02.360
<v Speaker 1>if you wear a turtleneck, you have to completely embrace

0:21:02.400 --> 0:21:04.400
<v Speaker 1>it and be ready for the critiques you're gonna get.

0:21:04.760 --> 0:21:07.520
<v Speaker 1>You got to own it and not apologize. Kevin Durant

0:21:07.600 --> 0:21:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Kyrie Irving TV twelve as a turtleneck guy, M I

0:21:12.560 --> 0:21:17.280
<v Speaker 1>think lebronze rock to turtleneck absolutely, Carmelo. Yeah yeah, here's

0:21:17.320 --> 0:21:19.199
<v Speaker 1>Michael Jordan. I well, Jordan wore it, so it's in

0:21:19.320 --> 0:21:23.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, my bad. You know Todd had an oatmeal turtleneck.

0:21:24.320 --> 0:21:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Now that one I like chunky chunk. I was all

0:21:28.240 --> 0:21:30.600
<v Speaker 1>in three years at a roll was Paully likes the

0:21:30.640 --> 0:21:34.040
<v Speaker 1>reminder everybody three years ago Christmas party, Christmas party, you

0:21:34.040 --> 0:21:36.840
<v Speaker 1>wore the same chunky Why do you wear the same

0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:40.000
<v Speaker 1>thing three years a row? Then that specifically it's one

0:21:40.040 --> 0:21:42.560
<v Speaker 1>thing to wear the same thing, but a turtleneck and

0:21:42.600 --> 0:21:45.160
<v Speaker 1>an oatmeal turtleneck, why would you pick that? I even

0:21:45.160 --> 0:21:48.400
<v Speaker 1>no explanation for that, because that's your nice outfit. I guess.

0:21:48.400 --> 0:21:50.920
<v Speaker 1>So everything else's sweatpads and bronco. Jorge is what was

0:21:50.920 --> 0:21:52.919
<v Speaker 1>I supposed to do? Go shopping? I'm not gonna do that.

0:21:53.119 --> 0:21:55.520

0:21:55.520 --> 0:22:00.399
<v Speaker 1>then Fritzie somehow lost the chunky oatmeal. I put some

0:25:01.720 --> 0:25:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Dan good to be here. Just want to say I

0:25:03.880 --> 0:25:06.480
<v Speaker 1>woke up today and you know sometimes when the voice

0:25:06.520 --> 0:25:08.400
<v Speaker 1>just feels crispy when you wake up and you can't

0:25:08.400 --> 0:25:11.880
<v Speaker 1>explain it. Yeah, it's happening, and I feel great. Oh

0:25:12.000 --> 0:25:14.720
<v Speaker 1>that Oh that's a good sounding voice, is what you're saying.

0:25:15.320 --> 0:25:17.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I was getting ready to say that you

0:25:17.160 --> 0:25:19.800
<v Speaker 1>had a top five voice of all time, and I

0:25:19.840 --> 0:25:22.199
<v Speaker 1>was hoping to one day stand in the shadow of

0:25:22.200 --> 0:25:26.520
<v Speaker 1>that voice. But seeing as how you're attacking today, Thanks Dan,

0:25:26.640 --> 0:25:29.120
<v Speaker 1>good to see you as well. Is that a Cranberry

0:25:29.280 --> 0:25:35.520
<v Speaker 1>vlure shirt? So that velvet Cranberry is an interesting use

0:25:35.520 --> 0:25:39.119
<v Speaker 1>of the word maroon. It's very soft. I wanted you

0:25:39.160 --> 0:25:43.119
<v Speaker 1>to think that I had either expensive pajamas or I

0:25:43.200 --> 0:25:45.520
<v Speaker 1>just like have a strong sweater game. It's kind of

0:25:45.520 --> 0:25:51.159
<v Speaker 1>a Merlot you're wearing, you're walking Merlot. Yeah, you know,

0:25:51.760 --> 0:25:56.160
<v Speaker 1>for me, it's more of a Pino noir or button

0:25:56.200 --> 0:25:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Merlot's nice. And I like the way that Trager read earlier.

0:25:59.800 --> 0:26:03.679
<v Speaker 1>I almost bought a trigger grill, I did. Was it

0:26:03.720 --> 0:26:06.880
<v Speaker 1>that good? I mean, convincing you can make cocktails on it? Yeah?

0:26:06.880 --> 0:26:10.320
<v Speaker 1>She was like, this is incredible. We've made cocktails, We've

0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:13.879
<v Speaker 1>made pies on there, and then you can make anything

0:26:13.920 --> 0:26:17.040
<v Speaker 1>you want. Really wow, incredible. But you're a big time

0:26:17.240 --> 0:26:19.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you should be able to afford a trigger grill.

0:26:20.520 --> 0:26:22.439
<v Speaker 1>I don't I have never lived in a place in

0:26:22.520 --> 0:26:25.040
<v Speaker 1>which a grill could exist. Have either been in New

0:26:25.119 --> 0:26:27.959
<v Speaker 1>York for eight years. I'm currently in an airbnb in Atlanta.

0:26:27.960 --> 0:26:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what it's like to have a yard. Dan,

0:26:30.200 --> 0:26:33.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm not an adult yet. It's an issue. And you

0:26:33.040 --> 0:26:37.080
<v Speaker 1>went with the turtleneck. You're rocking the turtlenecks. Is that it?

0:26:37.800 --> 0:26:41.320
<v Speaker 1>I like it. I'm just worried about turtleneck. Late March

0:26:41.440 --> 0:26:47.320
<v Speaker 1>early April in Atlanta, I kind of came into it

0:26:47.359 --> 0:26:51.920
<v Speaker 1>and I said, Ernie in that chair has taken bow

0:26:52.000 --> 0:26:54.960
<v Speaker 1>ties and made it iconic. And the last thing I

0:26:55.000 --> 0:26:57.000
<v Speaker 1>wanted to do was to be another suit and tie.

0:26:57.400 --> 0:27:00.200
<v Speaker 1>You know that that's over. And I kind of looked

0:27:00.240 --> 0:27:02.480
<v Speaker 1>around and I said, when I think back to my

0:27:02.560 --> 0:27:06.520
<v Speaker 1>college experience, who was the creepiest person? Ah, the old

0:27:06.560 --> 0:27:09.119
<v Speaker 1>guy that comes back in a turtleneck. And I tried

0:27:09.160 --> 0:27:12.800
<v Speaker 1>to channel that. I'm just having fun. And the greatest

0:27:12.800 --> 0:27:16.000
<v Speaker 1>thing with NBA on TNT is that people feel comfortable

0:27:16.160 --> 0:27:19.879
<v Speaker 1>insulting you and then I get the opportunity to clap

0:27:19.920 --> 0:27:24.080
<v Speaker 1>back at them, which has been very enjoyable. Did anything

0:27:24.200 --> 0:27:26.960
<v Speaker 1>change yesterday in the NBA as far as yeah, seis

0:27:27.040 --> 0:27:32.760
<v Speaker 1>mcshift the power rankings there. For me, the team that

0:27:32.800 --> 0:27:37.120
<v Speaker 1>caught my attention the most, maybe surprisingly loves the Denver Nuggets.

0:27:38.000 --> 0:27:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I really thought the Denver Nuggets were going to have

0:27:41.040 --> 0:27:43.360
<v Speaker 1>a big second half, mainly because they had so much

0:27:43.400 --> 0:27:45.840
<v Speaker 1>depth that was hurt in the first half. And when

0:27:45.840 --> 0:27:48.520
<v Speaker 1>I looked at them, I was like, Nicole Yoku just

0:27:48.600 --> 0:27:53.040
<v Speaker 1>been carrying this team by himself the twelve thirteen triple doubles,

0:27:53.400 --> 0:27:58.119
<v Speaker 1>but now he has athleticism and size around him. Aaron Gordon,

0:27:58.359 --> 0:28:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Javaal McGee on Yokich's ability to pass that two man game.

0:28:03.520 --> 0:28:05.840
<v Speaker 1>Now with Aaron Gordon, I don't need you to dribble,

0:28:06.080 --> 0:28:08.119
<v Speaker 1>go run at the hoop. Yokich is going to hit you.

0:28:08.400 --> 0:28:11.320
<v Speaker 1>But when they lost Jeremy Grant, when they lost Plumley

0:28:11.440 --> 0:28:15.520
<v Speaker 1>last year, that along with Jamal Murray and Yokis gave

0:28:15.560 --> 0:28:18.199
<v Speaker 1>a lot of depth. And it really seems like the

0:28:18.320 --> 0:28:21.960
<v Speaker 1>NBA went. Anthony Davis is a ways away. According to

0:28:21.960 --> 0:28:25.359
<v Speaker 1>Frank Vogel and Lebron James, we don't see him get

0:28:25.440 --> 0:28:28.080
<v Speaker 1>hurt that often. It was as if everybody woke up.

0:28:28.520 --> 0:28:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Denver caught my attention because now I think they have

0:28:31.080 --> 0:28:33.560
<v Speaker 1>the athletic bigs and when I look at the Clippers,

0:28:33.560 --> 0:28:35.720
<v Speaker 1>they don't have the biggs. When I look at the Lakers,

0:28:36.160 --> 0:28:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Gasol is still trying to work on his conditioning, they

0:28:38.440 --> 0:28:40.640
<v Speaker 1>don't really have the biggs right now. So Denver really

0:28:40.680 --> 0:28:43.400
<v Speaker 1>caught my attention. And I always wondered that though, Adam,

0:28:43.440 --> 0:28:47.200
<v Speaker 1>if somebody was going to be like counterintuitive of, hey,

0:28:47.240 --> 0:28:49.800
<v Speaker 1>we can't match you with this, so we need you

0:28:49.840 --> 0:28:52.840
<v Speaker 1>to try to match what we do. Now you deal

0:28:52.920 --> 0:28:55.960
<v Speaker 1>with us as opposed to us trying to be like

0:28:56.080 --> 0:28:58.800
<v Speaker 1>everybody else in the NBA. Is that what Denver's doing

0:29:00.040 --> 0:29:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Sure doesn't seem like it. I like the fact that

0:29:02.360 --> 0:29:05.200
<v Speaker 1>there was a number of teams that maximized the short

0:29:05.280 --> 0:29:08.680
<v Speaker 1>window of their stars and were honest about it. Don't

0:29:08.760 --> 0:29:12.120
<v Speaker 1>wait for Gary Trent Junior to become Norman Powell, get

0:29:12.160 --> 0:29:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Norman Powell. Don't wait for Zach Levine to maybe get

0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:17.720
<v Speaker 1>to free agency and go I wonder what it would

0:29:17.760 --> 0:29:20.560
<v Speaker 1>be like to be with an athletic big get Vucevic

0:29:20.840 --> 0:29:24.320
<v Speaker 1>put him out there. And so for Denver, they're like,

0:29:24.720 --> 0:29:27.040
<v Speaker 1>we don't think last year was a fluke. We don't

0:29:27.040 --> 0:29:29.080
<v Speaker 1>think that that Jamal Murray that we saw in the

0:29:29.120 --> 0:29:32.560
<v Speaker 1>bubble all of a sudden went away. It's funny. The

0:29:32.560 --> 0:29:35.480
<v Speaker 1>bubble guys are starting to come back, Jamal Murray starting

0:29:35.480 --> 0:29:38.440
<v Speaker 1>to come back, Tyler heroes starting to come back. We

0:29:38.520 --> 0:29:41.640
<v Speaker 1>forget that they had like three weeks between the end

0:29:41.640 --> 0:29:43.720
<v Speaker 1>of the bubble and the regular season. We're like, why

0:29:43.840 --> 0:29:47.160
<v Speaker 1>isn't this continuing? So I don't think Denver was a

0:29:47.200 --> 0:29:49.200
<v Speaker 1>flash in the pan, and I think they were. Let's

0:29:49.240 --> 0:29:51.600
<v Speaker 1>get some athletes around Yokish and make it easier for him.

0:29:51.800 --> 0:29:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned this about thirty minutes ago. Can you remember

0:29:54.400 --> 0:29:58.360
<v Speaker 1>a player who averages four points a game and gets

0:29:58.360 --> 0:30:02.240
<v Speaker 1>as much attention as Rajon Ron does? Hmmm, I thought

0:30:02.240 --> 0:30:04.040
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna talk about Kelly O. Lennox. I thought you're

0:30:04.040 --> 0:30:06.120
<v Speaker 1>gonna say you ever see someone get four points a

0:30:06.120 --> 0:30:08.600
<v Speaker 1>game they get traded for like a former All Star.

0:30:09.560 --> 0:30:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Rondo has so much respect from every NBA player when

0:30:14.800 --> 0:30:17.640
<v Speaker 1>that trade, you know, because let's be honest, Shack gets

0:30:17.640 --> 0:30:20.000
<v Speaker 1>out there, I need a list of the trades so

0:30:20.040 --> 0:30:22.560
<v Speaker 1>he can look at them, you know, and he goes, Oh, Rondo,

0:30:23.720 --> 0:30:26.960
<v Speaker 1>it's his IQ. We've read the stories before about how

0:30:27.000 --> 0:30:31.200
<v Speaker 1>nobody learns the pocket of a shooter of his team

0:30:31.320 --> 0:30:34.800
<v Speaker 1>better than Rondo and puts those perfect passes the leadership.

0:30:34.880 --> 0:30:37.440
<v Speaker 1>That's the reason they brought him to Atlanta was to

0:30:37.600 --> 0:30:40.640
<v Speaker 1>mentor Trey and the whole experience with the coach there

0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:43.640
<v Speaker 1>didn't work out. But it is interesting that when I

0:30:43.680 --> 0:30:46.080
<v Speaker 1>was looking at the crunch time numbers, the under five

0:30:46.200 --> 0:30:49.480
<v Speaker 1>minutes for the Clippers, how much everything fell apart and

0:30:49.520 --> 0:30:52.120
<v Speaker 1>it turned into ISO ball where it was Paul George

0:30:52.120 --> 0:30:54.760
<v Speaker 1>figure it out, Kauai figure it out. And now that

0:30:54.960 --> 0:30:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Rondo can be out there. The other thing that I

0:30:57.280 --> 0:31:01.160
<v Speaker 1>love is Montrez Harrold goes from the Clippers to the Lakers,

0:31:01.560 --> 0:31:04.680
<v Speaker 1>and it felt like this backstabbing and it's now like

0:31:04.720 --> 0:31:07.880
<v Speaker 1>the Clippers got their former Laker from last year to

0:31:07.960 --> 0:31:12.560
<v Speaker 1>come right. So I pray that if the Lakers do fall,

0:31:12.880 --> 0:31:15.280
<v Speaker 1>they fall to a spot in like six or seven

0:31:15.280 --> 0:31:16.920
<v Speaker 1>to where they have to play the Clippers in the

0:31:16.960 --> 0:31:19.680
<v Speaker 1>first round, because that would be unbelievable. Rondo a Hall

0:31:19.720 --> 0:31:23.160
<v Speaker 1>of famer, oh man. I feel like a lot of

0:31:23.200 --> 0:31:26.280
<v Speaker 1>people are hall of famers. The Pro basketball or the

0:31:26.440 --> 0:31:29.560
<v Speaker 1>basketball Hall of Fame is very loose, but he's got

0:31:29.600 --> 0:31:34.240
<v Speaker 1>a number of titles. I he was, but they're far

0:31:34.320 --> 0:31:36.760
<v Speaker 1>more lenient with the basketball Hall of Fame. I don't

0:31:36.760 --> 0:31:39.400
<v Speaker 1>think he won anything at Kentucky and is what one

0:31:39.480 --> 0:31:42.600
<v Speaker 1>year there? No, I believe, but Billy Gillespie, Yeah, I

0:31:43.160 --> 0:31:45.920
<v Speaker 1>feel like Rondo is a Hall of Fame going to

0:31:45.960 --> 0:31:48.160
<v Speaker 1>the Hall of Fame. I hear a lot of people

0:31:48.280 --> 0:31:50.760
<v Speaker 1>just say hall of famer, you know, so yeah, I would.

0:31:50.840 --> 0:31:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm hearing Kyle Lowry's a Hall of Famer. Really,

0:31:55.000 --> 0:31:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Rudy Gobert is a Hall of Famer. These are things

0:31:57.240 --> 0:31:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I hear people say all the time because you look

0:31:59.000 --> 0:32:00.760
<v Speaker 1>at You're like, oh, Rudy go it's a two time

0:32:00.800 --> 0:32:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Defensive Player of the Year. Oh yeah, yeah, and it's

0:32:03.600 --> 0:32:06.280
<v Speaker 1>we look at the It's tough because it's we look

0:32:06.280 --> 0:32:09.360
<v Speaker 1>at them in a vacuum. But its NBA's lows. I

0:32:09.400 --> 0:32:11.239
<v Speaker 1>just know that whenever the Hall of Fame comes up,

0:32:11.480 --> 0:32:13.880
<v Speaker 1>Shack is like I wish it was tighter. It's the

0:32:13.920 --> 0:32:16.840
<v Speaker 1>Hall of every booth. Like he only wants like him

0:32:17.360 --> 0:32:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Will like that's all he wants in. There is

0:32:20.360 --> 0:32:24.240
<v Speaker 1>like four guys. Yeah. We are a lot more lenient

0:32:24.360 --> 0:32:27.960
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to basketball because you have to we

0:32:28.040 --> 0:32:31.000
<v Speaker 1>know nothing of the process. Dam It's not like the NFL,

0:32:31.040 --> 0:32:33.520
<v Speaker 1>where we know there's this conference room and there's writers,

0:32:33.520 --> 0:32:36.080
<v Speaker 1>and we know who's pitching you and what was the

0:32:36.160 --> 0:32:39.320
<v Speaker 1>argument against you? And we know the votings the NBA.

0:32:39.400 --> 0:32:42.480
<v Speaker 1>It's like hunger games, and they're like and these are

0:32:42.520 --> 0:32:44.480
<v Speaker 1>the six names, and we're like, wait, how did you

0:32:44.920 --> 0:32:46.920
<v Speaker 1>How did you get there? Like how did that happen?

0:32:47.240 --> 0:32:52.000
<v Speaker 1>Nobody is allowed to know. Yeah, I saw the latest

0:32:52.000 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 1>odds after the trade deadline. It's the niche, the Lakers,

0:32:54.640 --> 0:32:58.680
<v Speaker 1>and then the Clippers. All right, Like, what are the

0:32:58.680 --> 0:33:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Clippers done that would make you think they're the third

0:33:02.400 --> 0:33:06.160
<v Speaker 1>best team to win a championship? Here? Maybe I'm biased,

0:33:06.200 --> 0:33:08.440
<v Speaker 1>but I thought the Sixers would be ahead of the Clippers.

0:33:08.560 --> 0:33:10.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean and beads out and they've won eight of

0:33:10.880 --> 0:33:12.920
<v Speaker 1>eight and one in their last night. I got the

0:33:13.040 --> 0:33:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Bucks in the Jazz and then the Sixers with these odds,

0:33:17.760 --> 0:33:20.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Tobias Harris is only up to season average

0:33:20.560 --> 0:33:23.760
<v Speaker 1>by five to like twenty five points per game. Simmons

0:33:23.840 --> 0:33:26.560
<v Speaker 1>is like a walking triple double, and he sometimes doesn't

0:33:26.560 --> 0:33:29.840
<v Speaker 1>even need points to even come near it. They now

0:33:29.880 --> 0:33:33.120
<v Speaker 1>add George Hill that that's interesting. The Bucks are slept

0:33:33.200 --> 0:33:35.680
<v Speaker 1>on and I'm a part of the problem. Because I

0:33:35.720 --> 0:33:38.280
<v Speaker 1>am one of those media members that has suffered Bucks

0:33:38.280 --> 0:33:42.000
<v Speaker 1>fatigue and Bowdenholzer fatigue, and I'm sitting there going, you

0:33:42.080 --> 0:33:44.760
<v Speaker 1>haven't adapted in the playoffs the last three years, and

0:33:44.960 --> 0:33:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm self consciously worrying that they're gonna pull the Raptors

0:33:48.400 --> 0:33:51.000
<v Speaker 1>where when they won, everybody was like, yeah, we'll prove

0:33:51.040 --> 0:33:52.920
<v Speaker 1>it to me in the playoffs, and we just write

0:33:52.920 --> 0:33:57.240
<v Speaker 1>them off all season long. I love the PJ. Tucker edition,

0:33:57.280 --> 0:34:00.880
<v Speaker 1>and I think we've forgotten that Drew Holiday is there

0:34:01.000 --> 0:34:03.720
<v Speaker 1>and he missed a large chunk of time with COVID.

0:34:04.320 --> 0:34:06.840
<v Speaker 1>And then the Nets though, to me, are the most

0:34:06.880 --> 0:34:09.759
<v Speaker 1>fun watch in the NBA, and at the end of

0:34:09.760 --> 0:34:11.879
<v Speaker 1>the day, we can look at odds, but I think

0:34:11.880 --> 0:34:14.000
<v Speaker 1>they're the best team in the NBA because you have

0:34:14.040 --> 0:34:17.120
<v Speaker 1>hardened Kyrie and Durant and when those guys are clicking,

0:34:17.760 --> 0:34:20.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know who's stopping them because playoff basketball is

0:34:20.920 --> 0:34:23.520
<v Speaker 1>half court basketball and it's a one on one game

0:34:23.640 --> 0:34:26.440
<v Speaker 1>and all three of those guys are a walking bucket.

0:34:26.719 --> 0:34:29.400
<v Speaker 1>But the Lakers I have a real concern with if

0:34:29.800 --> 0:34:32.759
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Davis has a calf strain, which is the same

0:34:32.800 --> 0:34:36.000
<v Speaker 1>injury that Kevin Durant had before he popped as achilles.

0:34:36.680 --> 0:34:40.040
<v Speaker 1>We cannot take it lightly because it's also a mental

0:34:40.080 --> 0:34:44.160
<v Speaker 1>thing for Lebron. He has played ninety three percent of

0:34:44.200 --> 0:34:47.400
<v Speaker 1>the games that his teams have had, he has missed.

0:34:47.440 --> 0:34:50.360
<v Speaker 1>I think in his career won one hundred and four games.

0:34:50.880 --> 0:34:53.879
<v Speaker 1>He has played almost fifty thousand minutes and missed one

0:34:53.960 --> 0:34:56.200
<v Speaker 1>hundred and four games. And not all those were injuries.

0:34:56.440 --> 0:34:58.000
<v Speaker 1>A lot of those were just let's get some rest

0:34:58.040 --> 0:35:00.120
<v Speaker 1>on the second half of a back to back, and

0:35:00.160 --> 0:35:04.000
<v Speaker 1>so when he went down writhing in pain, it is open.

0:35:04.280 --> 0:35:06.919
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I'm I'm with you with the Clippers, where

0:35:06.920 --> 0:35:09.360
<v Speaker 1>I go, Okay, where's the big guy that's going to

0:35:09.440 --> 0:35:12.560
<v Speaker 1>defend embat if he's there, or defend if the Nets

0:35:12.640 --> 0:35:15.720
<v Speaker 1>end up pulling anybody else, or Anthony Davis if he's healthy.

0:35:16.000 --> 0:35:18.480
<v Speaker 1>And look, I love Paul George. He's having a career

0:35:18.640 --> 0:35:23.040
<v Speaker 1>true shooting season. But we've seen this story before and

0:35:23.120 --> 0:35:26.520
<v Speaker 1>it's not one that I enjoy reading. Keep rocking the valure,

0:35:27.200 --> 0:35:30.759
<v Speaker 1>keep rocking the turtleneck, but just keep on rocking in

0:35:30.760 --> 0:35:33.759
<v Speaker 1>the free world. Okay, that was great, By the way,

0:35:33.800 --> 0:35:36.080
<v Speaker 1>Can I ask one quick question before you kick me off? Yes?

0:35:36.160 --> 0:35:42.839
<v Speaker 1>You can. You told me to be Stockton. Yes, man,

0:35:42.880 --> 0:35:44.799
<v Speaker 1>I want to be Iverson And I just want to

0:35:44.800 --> 0:35:48.640
<v Speaker 1>know did you have any other broadcasting hosting advice or

0:35:48.880 --> 0:35:51.480
<v Speaker 1>analysis of what I need? Like what do I really

0:35:51.600 --> 0:35:56.279
<v Speaker 1>suck at? DANU? But there's nothing wrong with starting at

0:35:56.320 --> 0:36:00.799
<v Speaker 1>Stockton because your job is to distribute. But when you

0:36:00.840 --> 0:36:04.239
<v Speaker 1>want to call your own number, then it'll stand out

0:36:04.280 --> 0:36:06.760
<v Speaker 1>even more. If you call your number all the time,

0:36:07.360 --> 0:36:09.239
<v Speaker 1>then I think you get in the way of the

0:36:09.320 --> 0:36:12.919
<v Speaker 1>people who they've done this before. But when you want

0:36:12.920 --> 0:36:16.560
<v Speaker 1>to go and you can be Magic Johnson against the

0:36:16.600 --> 0:36:19.080
<v Speaker 1>Sixers in the NBA Finals and you know, go for

0:36:19.080 --> 0:36:22.880
<v Speaker 1>forty two points. But the other times your job is

0:36:22.920 --> 0:36:25.080
<v Speaker 1>to set those guys up. You got to have at

0:36:25.120 --> 0:36:28.359
<v Speaker 1>least ten assists at night. M I like that you

0:36:28.400 --> 0:36:31.360
<v Speaker 1>mentioned Magic in the finals, yause he saved it for

0:36:31.400 --> 0:36:35.960
<v Speaker 1>the stage. Yeah. Yeah, I mean pick your spot. You

0:36:36.000 --> 0:36:38.960
<v Speaker 1>didn't do it here, but pick your spot when you

0:36:39.000 --> 0:36:42.560
<v Speaker 1>want to be really good. Okay, that burn brought to

0:36:42.600 --> 0:36:46.000
<v Speaker 1>you by trigger grills. Not gonna do it on our grills.

0:36:46.280 --> 0:36:48.319
<v Speaker 1>We'll do it on the show. Look at that voice. Hell,

0:36:48.400 --> 0:36:51.200

0:37:52.440 --> 0:37:56.160

0:38:01.320 --> 0:38:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Islanders want it tonight for three in Boston. Can you

0:38:05.280 --> 0:38:09.480
<v Speaker 1>believe it? That's an amazing call for a sixteen year

0:38:09.520 --> 0:38:15.600
<v Speaker 1>old Islanders radio network Islanders beat the broad and over

0:38:15.760 --> 0:38:18.680
<v Speaker 1>time they lead the East by two points over Washington.

0:38:18.719 --> 0:38:22.440
<v Speaker 1>They've gone thirty one consecutive seasons without winning a division title.

0:38:24.280 --> 0:38:26.480
<v Speaker 1>Last time they won one was a nineteen eighty seven

0:38:26.560 --> 0:38:31.120
<v Speaker 1>nineteen eighty eight. That was a crazy call. Just to

0:38:31.160 --> 0:38:35.799
<v Speaker 1>be able to sustain that level that pitch. I mean,

0:38:35.840 --> 0:38:39.200
<v Speaker 1>are you kidding? Wouldn't it be great if that's how

0:38:39.239 --> 0:38:41.560
<v Speaker 1>he sounded in real life? So it's not really you know,

0:38:41.719 --> 0:38:44.160
<v Speaker 1>we're we're giving him credit for getting his voice up there.

0:39:16.280 --> 0:39:24.759
<v Speaker 1>reference with Hall of Fame probability. So these are the odds. Yes,

0:39:24.800 --> 0:39:27.640
<v Speaker 1>they have a calculator that does it the ways in

0:39:27.800 --> 0:39:31.520
<v Speaker 1>NBA championships, leaderboard points like what they lead in assists

0:39:31.560 --> 0:39:34.880
<v Speaker 1>or something, peak, win chairs and All Star Game selections,

0:39:34.880 --> 0:39:37.720
<v Speaker 1>and they crunch the numbers to come up with a probability. Okay,

0:39:37.719 --> 0:39:42.080
<v Speaker 1>so the active players right now, Chris Paul one hundred

0:39:42.080 --> 0:39:46.080
<v Speaker 1>percent probability that he'll make the Hall of Fame, Kevin

0:39:46.120 --> 0:39:50.319
<v Speaker 1>Durant one hundred percent. James Harden is, well, he's gonna

0:39:50.320 --> 0:39:51.719
<v Speaker 1>make the Hall of Fame, but they got him under

0:39:51.760 --> 0:39:55.280
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent. Steph Curry under one hundred percent. Ninety

0:39:55.440 --> 0:40:00.160
<v Speaker 1>nine point nine nine nine, Russell Westbrook, Dwight how Word

0:40:00.200 --> 0:40:02.839
<v Speaker 1>a Hall of Famer. I was surprised by that one.

0:40:03.440 --> 0:40:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if the media feels that way about him.

0:40:06.480 --> 0:40:10.320
<v Speaker 1>I wonder the more he plays, the less he becomes

0:40:10.320 --> 0:40:12.279
<v Speaker 1>a Hall of Famer in people's eyes. And he has

0:40:12.320 --> 0:40:15.960
<v Speaker 1>no high school college career. Who else is on here?

0:40:16.080 --> 0:40:21.239
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Davis, Carmelo, Anthony Anthony Davis a little higher probability

0:40:21.239 --> 0:40:23.719
<v Speaker 1>they're making the Hall of Fame. Anthony Davis won a

0:40:23.760 --> 0:40:27.319
<v Speaker 1>title at Kentucky, Carmelo won a title at Syracuse. That's

0:40:27.360 --> 0:40:31.920
<v Speaker 1>factored in, as will. Damian Lillard is point nine zero

0:40:34.160 --> 0:40:38.279
<v Speaker 1>Kyle Lowry is lower than that, Paul George Kyrie and

0:40:38.840 --> 0:40:43.040
<v Speaker 1>Kawhi Leonard Kawhi is right now at point seven nine,

0:40:44.600 --> 0:40:47.719
<v Speaker 1>which I don't think it's formula takes into account championships.

0:40:47.719 --> 0:40:50.520
<v Speaker 1>Maybe because he should be higher, that's the well it

0:40:50.640 --> 0:40:53.400
<v Speaker 1>should That's like when we do quarterback rating and I

0:40:53.400 --> 0:40:55.799
<v Speaker 1>always go, well did he win? How much does he win?

0:40:56.239 --> 0:40:58.319
<v Speaker 1>Quarterback rating? I don't care what your stats are. I

0:40:58.360 --> 0:41:01.640
<v Speaker 1>want to know, did you win? Polling. Dwight Howard's before

0:41:01.680 --> 0:41:04.840
<v Speaker 1>age thirty eight All Star appearances led the league in

0:41:04.920 --> 0:41:08.880
<v Speaker 1>rebounding five times, led the league in blocks twice before

0:41:09.000 --> 0:41:10.799
<v Speaker 1>thirty he feels like a Hall of Famer. Like you

0:41:10.800 --> 0:41:14.720
<v Speaker 1>said it, it's getting worse at the last eight years. Yeah,

0:41:14.880 --> 0:41:16.880
<v Speaker 1>he's having a nice year and now they're saying, like

0:41:16.920 --> 0:41:18.560
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of a blip improvement. I mean, he's

0:41:18.560 --> 0:41:21.640
<v Speaker 1>a bench player. Let's see who else is on here.

0:41:22.280 --> 0:41:26.400
<v Speaker 1>Draymond Greene is that's not a high percentage? John Wall No,

0:41:26.600 --> 0:41:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy Butler, no, Kemball Walker, Al Horford, Derrick Rose, No, no, no.

0:41:33.920 --> 0:41:37.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to see if there's anybody else down here

0:41:37.120 --> 0:41:40.920
<v Speaker 1>that might be interesting. The Jokers really low now but

0:41:41.200 --> 0:41:42.919
<v Speaker 1>he'll be a Hall of Famer when it's all said

0:41:42.960 --> 0:41:48.399
<v Speaker 1>and done. DeAndre Jordan is really low. I have where

0:41:48.480 --> 0:41:51.720
<v Speaker 1>Rondo is among not just the active players, but all players.

0:41:51.719 --> 0:41:55.000
<v Speaker 1>He's one eleven at point six zero percent. But behind

0:41:55.120 --> 0:41:59.160
<v Speaker 1>him is there's seven or eight Hall of famers like Cliffhagen,

0:41:59.320 --> 0:42:02.640
<v Speaker 1>West Unset, Maury's Cheeks, Yaoming are all Hall of famers

0:42:02.640 --> 0:42:05.359
<v Speaker 1>behind him. Okay, so he's in that that number will

0:42:05.400 --> 0:42:09.080
<v Speaker 1>get you into the Hall. He's right where Clay Thompson is. Yeah,

0:42:09.120 --> 0:42:11.680
<v Speaker 1>but Clay has still got more of his career. Blake

0:42:11.800 --> 0:42:15.759
<v Speaker 1>Griffin is just behind Clay Thompson. LaMarcus Aldridge is in

0:42:15.800 --> 0:42:20.160
<v Speaker 1>there as well. All right, I think Rondo is going

0:42:20.200 --> 0:42:23.919
<v Speaker 1>to be a Hall of Famer. No, so probably brought

0:42:23.960 --> 0:42:26.760
<v Speaker 1>up an interesting question. Is Kurt Schilling to me, feels

0:42:26.760 --> 0:42:28.600
<v Speaker 1>like way more of a Hall of Famer than Rondo,

0:42:28.680 --> 0:42:30.320
<v Speaker 1>and he's not in the Hall of Fame. He's baseball

0:42:30.400 --> 0:42:33.360
<v Speaker 1>is so much more selective. Well, no, that's that's politics.

0:42:34.239 --> 0:42:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Kurt Shillings is a Hall of Famer whether you put

0:42:36.719 --> 0:42:38.719
<v Speaker 1>him in or not. He's a Hall of Famer. Pete

0:42:38.800 --> 0:42:42.520
<v Speaker 1>Rose a Hall of Famer like him or not? Bet

0:42:42.560 --> 0:42:45.120
<v Speaker 1>against his team bet for his team when he was

0:42:45.160 --> 0:42:47.719
<v Speaker 1>a manager. Still the numbers show that he's a Hall

0:42:47.800 --> 0:42:53.440
<v Speaker 1>of Famer. But Kurt Schilling, you know, Kurt Schilling at

0:42:53.840 --> 0:42:56.400
<v Speaker 1>at a point in his career was in the top

0:42:56.480 --> 0:42:59.960
<v Speaker 1>five best pitchers in the game. Rondo has never been

0:43:00.120 --> 0:43:02.160
<v Speaker 1>one of the top five players in the game. And

0:43:02.280 --> 0:43:06.279
<v Speaker 1>we can talk about Rondo playoff Rondo. Kurt Schilling would

0:43:06.280 --> 0:43:08.480
<v Speaker 1>take the ball and go out there and do it

0:43:08.480 --> 0:43:11.680
<v Speaker 1>all himself. You know, he would dominate a game. You know,

0:43:11.840 --> 0:43:16.279
<v Speaker 1>Rondo didn't do that. Rondo's very good and good in

0:43:16.360 --> 0:43:21.759
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs. Might get a little more credit what he

0:43:21.800 --> 0:43:24.680
<v Speaker 1>does in the playoffs. Clark Kellogg is going to join us.

0:43:24.840 --> 0:43:27.239
<v Speaker 1>Coming up a little bit. We'll talk about March Madness

0:43:27.320 --> 0:43:30.560
<v Speaker 1>this weekend, the Sweet sixteen Settle on a poll question

0:43:30.600 --> 0:43:33.040
<v Speaker 1>as well. I believe did you do that? McLevin? I

0:43:33.080 --> 0:43:35.799
