He'll join us in an 10 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:30,640 Speaker 2: hour from now. Speaking of Kevin Durant going over thirty 11 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: thousand points, I think it's a slight when we just 12 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 2: say he's one of the greatest scores of all time. 13 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 2: He's one of the greatest players of all time. Here 14 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 2: is Kevin Durant after the game last night on the 15 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 2: players that inspired him. 16 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 3: I stole so much from Derek and Keen. 17 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 4: That is criminal, you know. 18 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 3: And yeah, it might have been a little bit more 19 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 3: athletic on my one legger than Derk, but he is, 20 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 3: He's the king, He's the god it as so. I've 21 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 3: just always been inspired by a rates, always wanted to 22 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 3: reach their level. It's an exciting time to be NBA players, 23 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 3: especially the time that I came up, it was so 24 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 3: many game changing players that kind of defied the norms 25 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 3: as players, and those two were some of the guys 26 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 3: that did that. So I've always been inspired by those 27 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 3: guys and to be in that company, man, it's just surreal. 28 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 2: That's pretty cool. Dirk was probably KD before KD that 29 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 2: you couldn't stop him. He had great range. Now he 30 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 2: didn't have the handle that KD and wasn't a better 31 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 2: all around player or that kind of player. He was 32 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 2: just a score. Dirk was going to score on you. 33 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 2: The a kem Elijahwan if you want to study footwork, 34 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 2: if you're a basketball player, whether you're a point guard, 35 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: you're a big man.

Pictures and Catchers Report. 48 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: That used to be a really big deal. I remember 49 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 2: when I was at Sports Center. Oh the first video 50 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 2: you got some but where in Arizona or Florida. Pictures 51 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 2: and Catchers And all was was you'd see these guys 52 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 2: just throwing to a catcher and you'd hear that going 53 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 2: into the mint, and you're like, yeah, little BP, Yeah, yeah, 54 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 2: I'm ready for that March. We're ready. No, it's February 55 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 2: Pictures and Catchers Report. It's Seaton Poll question for an 56 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 2: hour two is going to be what I'll try. 57 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 5: To find the right way to word this, uh to 58 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 5: make it most interesting. But is calling Kevin Durant a 59 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 5: great scorer insulting? 60 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say insulting as much as it's it's it's 61 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 2: not a true compliment. And maybe we're maybe it's a 62 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: slight maybe maybe it's semantics here. It just doesn't feel 63 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,679 Speaker 2: like we're taking in the totality of his game, which 64 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: is unfortunate because but I think we've always focused on 65 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 2: Kevin Durantis's score. I don't think you ever go maybe 66 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 2: he's a pretty good passer or he can play some defense. 67 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 5: Well, when we talk about him, it's like you can't 68 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 5: really stop his shot, right, I mean, the only way 69 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 5: that you're going to stop it is if he just misses. 70 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, although he's had his shot blocked a couple of 71 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 2: times and I was surprised, but that kind of you know, 72 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: arm length over seven feet, and I thought, has his 73 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 2: shot his jumper ever been blocked? And I think there's 74 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 2: a kid with the Portland Trailblazers who might have gotten 75 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 2: him maybe last last year. There is a stat of 76 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 2: guys who have blocked Durance jumper, which I was like, wow, 77 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 2: that many and that might be five or six in 78 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 2: NBA history, But still that shot like Joker. Has Jokers 79 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 2: jumper ever gotten blocked? Unless it's from behind that you're 80 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 2: gonna block it. Vincent Goodwill has all the answers. Yahoo 81 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 2: Sports senior NBA writer and host of The Good Word podcast. 82 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 2: Is it a slight to say Kevin Durantz one of 83 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: the greatest scorers of all time, it's about a slight Dan. 84 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 6: It's just limiting, you know what I mean. Like when 85 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 6: you say someone's a great score, you're saying that's. 86 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 4: The only thing that they're great at. 87 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 6: Like when I say Carmelo Anthony is a great score, 88 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 6: that's like the first thing that you think of. And 89 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 6: this if you take a while before you go to 90 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,279 Speaker 6: maybe the other things of this game. And I'm not 91 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 6: insulting Carmelo in any way, but you think of Carmelo 92 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 6: as the first, as a great scorer first and foremost, 93 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 6: you think of kd Or you should think of kat 94 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 6: as one of the greatest all around players this league 95 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 6: has ever seen. Unfortunately, in the era of Lebron James 96 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 6: and Stephen Curry, you tend to limit him or discuss 97 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,359 Speaker 6: him in other ways a lot of times that have 98 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 6: nothing to do with basketball. 99 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think with Steph Curry, he's the greatest 100 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 2: shooter of all time. I don't think we talk about 101 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 2: anything else with him. Now, granted that's a great compliment, 102 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,119 Speaker 2: but if I said Steph Curry one of the greatest 103 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 2: scorers of all time, that would be accurate because he's 104 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: not known for anything else other than being the greatest 105 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: shooter in the history of the game. 106 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 6: I agree, and it's weird. You know what's funny is 107 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 6: because we don't think about shooters being great players in 108 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 6: that way when you think maybe aside from Larry Bird, 109 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 6: but when you thought of great shooters, you think of 110 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 6: guys that have like a specialized skill, like a Dale 111 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 6: Ellis or someone like that that's just a three point 112 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 6: shooter only I almost like a field goal kick in a 113 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 6: way in football. But Steph has sort of revolutionized it 114 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 6: in a way that he is a great scorer, and 115 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 6: he is a great shooter, the great shooter we've ever seen, 116 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 6: but there's so many other different parts and different fascets 117 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 6: to his game. I think with someone like Kad the 118 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 6: conversation is so convoluted and a lot of times unfair 119 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,119 Speaker 6: when it comes to Kevin Durant that we're always looking 120 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 6: for the slight when someone calls him a great score, 121 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 6: we're saying, wait a minute, what about the other parts 122 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:25,559 Speaker 6: of this game? 123 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 4: You know? 124 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 6: Like for me, Dan, I thought Kevin Durant became the 125 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 6: league's best player in twenty fourteen when he became the 126 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 6: best defensive player between himself and Lebron James, except we 127 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 6: never thought about Kevin Durant in that way. We short 128 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 6: ourselves and we shot him in a way that we 129 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 6: discuss him. And now that he's on the back end 130 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 6: of his career, now we're starting to hopefully acknowledge and 131 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 6: see all the great parts of his game. 132 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 2: Okay, how about we look at this down the road 133 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 2: when their careers are over with. Who will be recognized 134 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: as a better player, Steph Curry or Kevin Durant. 135 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 6: That's an excellent, excellent question, man. I think Steph Curry 136 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 6: won that championship in twenty twenty two put him over 137 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 6: the top of Kevin Durant. I think, unfortunately this Rings culture. 138 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 6: I don't subscribe to Rings culture in that sort of 139 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 6: direct way, but I do think that stepsibility to lead 140 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 6: a franchise, to stay with a franchise, to stick it 141 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 6: out with a franchise, compared to KD, who's been a 142 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 6: little bit more mercenary, that's going to be something that 143 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 6: people look at as a demerit. I think it's a 144 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 6: basketball player Kevin Durant because of what he does defensively, 145 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 6: he's a better all around player and stuff. 146 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 2: Let's look at the post trade deadline, Jimmy Butler's contribution 147 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 2: impact at Golden State and Lucas with the Lakers. Which 148 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 2: team do you think goes further due to these two editions. 149 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 6: I think Jimmy Butler makes a bigger impact with the 150 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 6: Golden State Warriors, but that's because the Golden State Warriors 151 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 6: have such a long way to go relative to the Lakers. 152 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 6: Like the Lakers were on a roll up until this trade, 153 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 6: and part of that has been the schedule lighting up 154 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 6: and Lebron coming off of his sabbatical, if that's what we're. 155 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 4: Going to call it. 156 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 6: He's coming back from that with both fresh sheet of 157 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,119 Speaker 6: legs and everything else. I think Luca is a little 158 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 6: bit more duplication. He just does it at a higher level, 159 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 6: and he probably has the stamina to do it for 160 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 6: longer stretches of time than Lebron does at this stage 161 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 6: of his career. But I don't see the Lakers having 162 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 6: enough actual functional size and defense on the back line 163 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 6: to make a real impact in the playoffs. I know 164 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 6: that they've won a lot of games, and I think they're, 165 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 6: you know, a game and a half and the lost 166 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 6: column of being like third in the West or second 167 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 6: in the West or whatever it is. But I still 168 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 6: think that size gets it done when you're talking about 169 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,319 Speaker 6: playing a full seven game series. Now, when I look 170 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 6: at Golden State, they're used to playing small and you 171 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 6: have someone in Draymond Green on the back line. Steph 172 00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 6: Curry has not played with a guy who can create 173 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 6: his own shots at an elite level. Spencey's played with 174 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 6: Kevin Durant and that was in twenty nineteen. 175 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 2: Was the last year those guys played together. 176 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 6: I'm very curious to see how those two guys mesh, 177 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 6: you know, Katie and Katy, Jimmy going to the bucket 178 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 6: and being able to be passed first, and Steph being 179 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 6: able to roam around on the perimeter having someone create 180 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 6: shots for him. 181 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 2: That could be scary. Dan Patrick, Vincent Goodwill y'allhoo's sports 182 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: senior NBA writer, host of The Good Word podcast. You 183 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: know a story that's kind of gone under the radar. 184 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 2: You know, Utah's tanking, Washington's tanking. Are the Pelicans tanking? 185 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,959 Speaker 2: Are they just bad? 186 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 6: They're confident, they're not trying to be bad. Dan, Some look, 187 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 6: when you're in the luxury tax, you ain't in a 188 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 6: luxury tax because you're trying to tank. This is not 189 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 6: a stealth tank job on the Pelicans part, Like, yeah, 190 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 6: they traded Brandon Ingram, but they were expecting Zion whims 191 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 6: And to be good this year. They acquired the John 192 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 6: Tate Murray because they wanted to make a run, like 193 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 6: on December one of last season, not December first of 194 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 6: this season. They were the best team in the Western 195 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 6: Conference and they were looking at it saying, if we 196 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 6: get healthy, if we stay healthy, we're going to be 197 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 6: able to make some real noise because of the youth 198 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 6: and the defense in some of the athleticism that we have. 199 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 6: It just hasn't worked and they're bad. And unfortunately for 200 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,319 Speaker 6: New Orleans, I feel like they're going to have to 201 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 6: part ways with Zion Williams and after the season. And 202 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 6: it's not to say that Zion can't turn it around. 203 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 6: It's just that it feels like that relationship is going 204 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 6: sour and those sides cannot go on. So I don't 205 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 6: think this is by design. They were not intending to 206 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 6: be bad. David Griffin thought he was going to put 207 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,320 Speaker 6: together eighteen that was going to compete in the Western 208 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 6: Conference this year. 209 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 2: So the coach didn't talk After the last game, the 210 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 2: fans booed the new team governor, the former owner told 211 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 2: fans to shut the bleep up. Fans got tossed for 212 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 2: signs saying fire Nico, and the team lost to Sacramento. 213 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 2: Other than that, it's seems like is Tim Kashaws tweeted out, 214 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: everything's going well in Dallas. 215 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 6: Everything's going swimmingly there. Look, then we can all adjudicate 216 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 6: the Luka Donci's trade, right, And I'm not one of 217 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 6: those people that cause it the worst trade of all time, 218 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 6: like when they say they traded for ad I think 219 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 6: there are people are trying to say that they traded 220 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 6: for Antonio Davis in nineteen ninety four or something like that, 221 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 6: like Anthony Davis is one of the top ten players 222 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,559 Speaker 6: in basketball. But I think that it's been a stroke 223 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:34,599 Speaker 6: of bad luck for a franchise that is so connected 224 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 6: to Luke. They're more connected to Luka Doncic than they 225 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 6: were to the actual Dallas Mavericks. And that's something that 226 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 6: you generally dan incorporate with losers. Like I'm gonna tell 227 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 6: you a quick story. I was a fan of the 228 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 6: Detroit Lions and then July twenty seventh, nineteen ninety nine happened, 229 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 6: and I was no longer a fan of the Detroit 230 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 6: Lions and I have not gone back since. Why because 231 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 6: they were losers and then when they made Barry Sanders 232 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 6: quick I quit them. Dallas has won a championship and 233 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 6: they went to the finals. Those fans should not be bailing, 234 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 6: even though I understand their anger and frustration, but this 235 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 6: is a bit shocking the reaction from everyone that's he 236 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 6: That's a bit wild to me. 237 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 2: If you gave Nico a do over a mulligan right 238 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 2: now today. 239 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 6: I think given the fact that we don't know the 240 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 6: extent of Anthony Davis's injury, this core muscle injury that 241 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,680 Speaker 6: he has, you might give him a mulligan based off 242 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 6: of that, not necessarily based off of the reaction. Usually 243 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 6: you can ride off the reaction, and I think he 244 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 6: was confident enough to say, we've got some bigs here 245 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 6: that can really make some things happen in the Western 246 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,319 Speaker 6: Conference if we get them all healthy and upright. I 247 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 6: don't think you. I don't think people as strong minded 248 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 6: as Nico Harrison are going to be swayed that quickly 249 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 6: because of the reaction. He could be swayed because of 250 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 6: Anthony Davis's health, not because everybody is so heartbroken and 251 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 6: betrayed over lukadotics. 252 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 2: Always great to talk to you, Vincent. Thanks for joining us. 253 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 6: Next time I'll be on video, Dan. 254 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's what our audience wants.

I'll let you know if we can 286 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 2: pull that off, because we have the Simpsons art you know, 287 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 2: the artwork there, a poster and with all of us there, 288 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 2: so if we can make I don't know if I 289 00:14:58,040 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 2: can make a copy of that.

The parade going on there in Philadelphia. 501 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 2: Oh boy, Yeah, Paul. 502 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 14: Is that the one seed of Super Bowl parades that 503 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 14: could get squarely for lack of a better. 504 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,960 Speaker 2: Well, well, it feels like anytime hockey has a parade 505 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 2: that that would be the number one seed. I was 506 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 2: in Vancouver many, many, many years ago when Vancouver lost 507 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: the Stanley Cup Final, and I felt lucky to get 508 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 2: out of the arena, out of the city and go 509 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 2: to the airport that was That was a little bit scary. Yeah, 510 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 2: you never factored that in. Yeah, And I understand when 511 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 2: you lose you might be upset. It's when you win 512 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden you're turning over cars 513 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 2: and you're tearing down light pole like I never understood 514 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 2: that you won. You won, Yes, Dodd. 515 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 15: Did you ever do anything or near somebody that all 516 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,040 Speaker 15: of a sudden their behavior changed dramatically because of that 517 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 15: mob mentality? Some someone that would normally not behave that 518 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 15: way gets caught up in the moment starts doing things 519 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 15: you would never expect you. I have had some friends that, 520 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 15: like I never thought would just kind of get rowdy, 521 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 15: you know, like at a party, or they just kind 522 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 15: of trying to be like everyone else and doing you know, 523 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 15: this questionable behavior. 524 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 2: What did you do? 525 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 13: We're at a party and. 526 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 15: Like people of friends of mind that I didn't realize 527 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 15: drink or maybe I hadn't before had one too many, 528 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 15: and they're just kind of jumping around and kind of 529 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 15: in someone's house and borderline breaking stuff. And like when someone's. 530 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 5: Happen borderline breaking stuff. 531 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 15: Banging into like you know, furniture and what looks like 532 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 15: expensive objects in this kid's parents house. To me, that's 533 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 15: a wild time. 534 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,480 Speaker 14: How does that come to a parade with thousands and 535 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 14: thousands of people? 536 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 15: I'm talking about mob mentality in journal like that? 537 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,919 Speaker 2: Why is it I don't throwing a car windows. 538 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 5: Billy just banged into something that looks very expensive. 539 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 13: That's crazy. That coffee table is almost broken. 540 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:55,719 Speaker 2: Just knock three books up to this show. We're going 541 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 2: to borderline break some stuff here. 542 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 13: Put a coaster down, you could leave a ring. 543 00:26:58,760 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 2: Who's with me? 544 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 13: How to put the sink? 545 00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 15: You could just leave it on the floor. 546 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 2: So I was gonna step on Wow, Yeah, I see. 547 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 5: I did do a run in Morgantown, West Virginia, which 548 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 5: might as well at some point been an epicenter of 549 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 5: mob mentality. And it is crazy how you could think 550 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 5: that things like you know, keg bowling or burning couches 551 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 5: is just kind of what you do. 552 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, like, no, it's normal. 553 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:26,080 Speaker 4: This is what. 554 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, let's get all of these empty kegs. Let's put 555 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 5: them at the bottom of this gigantic hill and then 556 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 5: we'll get another empty keg and roll it down from 557 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 5: the top of High Street all the way down to see. 558 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:37,080 Speaker 5: Let's see if we could hit any of them. And 559 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 5: it turns into just a projectile. It seemed like a 560 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 5: good idea at the time. 561 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 2: Every time Dayton would beat Notre Dame in basketball, they 562 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 2: would burn couches, which I don't know why because then 563 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 2: you need a new couch. But you would go into 564 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 2: this part of the campus and there would just be 565 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 2: couches burning and they were celebrating, and I just thought, God, 566 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:06,080 Speaker 2: that's dumb. Now you don't have a couch, so it'd 567 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 2: be out there on fire after you beat Notre Dame. Marvin, 568 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 2: did you ever do anything crazy after the Yukon Huskies 569 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 2: won national championships. 570 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 16: No, it was a lot of people watching though, and 571 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,400 Speaker 16: like you said, a lot of people burning couches. Obviously 572 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 16: everywhere outside of stores Connecticut. The Yukon campus itself, it's 573 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 16: pretty tame. It's on a farm. Yeah, But when Yukon 574 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 16: was in the final four. All bets were off. 575 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 2: PAULI, did you do anything suspicious. 576 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:36,800 Speaker 14: Around a parade or a celebration? I was around in 577 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 14: Chicago door manning when the Bulls won. There's a lot 578 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 14: of people who left their cars on Rush Street, and 579 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 14: they should know because they're going to get ripped up 580 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 14: turned over. I didn't participate, but I saw it. It was 581 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 14: there's some rough stuff with the cars. 582 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's certain Well, I just saw the celebration in 583 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 2: Philadelphia after they won the Super Bowl. I think they 584 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 2: stole two garbage trucks and they were bringing down light poles. 585 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 2: I believe maybe police car got turned over. Hopefully, hopefully 586 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 2: tomorrow or Friday will be respectable. 587 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 14: Maybe it's a Friday though I know, easy day off work. 588 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's probably best that it's on a Friday. That 589 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 2: gives you Saturday and Sunday to recuperate. Yes, Tom, has 590 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 2: it become a. 591 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 15: I still can't understand. I'm no psychiatrist. Psychologists a free 592 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 15: for all of lawlessness, Like you now have a certain 593 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 15: period of time where you can just do nearly anything 594 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 15: because your team won a championship. Like what would go 595 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 15: in someone's mind to think that now it's okay. Somebody 596 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 15: that's against the law is okay for the next few hours. 597 00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 2: I don't know what goes into their mind. I know 598 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 2: what goes into their body. It's called alcohol. That you 599 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 2: see is what is the great enhancer? 600 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 6: There? 601 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 2: Dale and Iowa, Iowa. That's Dale in Iowa Ideal. 602 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 17: Hey, Dan, I just caught your interview with Cooper Degen. 603 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 17: And by the way, his hometown is Old the Bolt, 604 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,480 Speaker 17: which is up up in that area of the state. 605 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 17: And yeah, I think they got grain elevators in a 606 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 17: railroad crossing. 607 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 6: But that's it. 608 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 17: But the one thing that hit me was during that 609 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 17: whole thing, Cooper Degene was the one last year against 610 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 17: Minnesota that took that pump return late in the fourth 611 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 17: quarter for a touchdown that was ruled in valid. 612 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 2: Fair catch yep. 613 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. 614 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 2: When he would make an interception a turnover, he was 615 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 2: planning on taking it back for a touchdown. Zach and Knoxville, Hi, Zach, 616 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 2: what's on your mind? 617 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 12: A DP, Thanks for taking my call. 618 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 6: Man. 619 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 12: As far as the Cooper Dejene stuff, maybe we can. 620 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 7: Put in a four way intersection there in his hometown, 621 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 7: and if he wins another Super Bowl, we put in 622 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 7: a stoplight, okay, but. 623 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 12: And Christian Tennessee. He said that you can't. 624 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 7: Compare other eras and other teams and things like that. 625 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 7: So I hate that your show is supposed to go 626 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 7: for another three and a half years. But I thought 627 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 7: that was the whole premise of sports talk radio. I'll 628 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 7: hang up and listen right. 629 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 2: It's not three and a half years. It's less than 630 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 2: three years. But I enjoy the conversation. And what I 631 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 2: love is I'm able to bring back names that maybe 632 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 2: you don't factor in, or that maybe you didn't get 633 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 2: a chance to see, having seen Doctor J in the Aba, 634 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 2: or my first you know, Bill Walton game was his 635 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 2: first game he ever played against leu Al Sindor or 636 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 2: Kareem Abdul Jabbaram. I got to see Wilt play, I 637 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 2: got to see Jerry West play. I got to see 638 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 2: Oscar play. Bill Russell's the only modern day Hall of 639 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 2: Famer that I don't think I got to see play. 640 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 2: And although I did get to see the Celtics, I started. 641 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 2: I saw the Celtics in seventies. So Dave Cowens came 642 00:31:42,240 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 2: there in nineteen seventy and he was co Rookie of 643 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 2: the Year with Jeff Petrie. But to see John Habilcheck play, 644 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 2: to see games in the garden, you know, so I 645 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 2: was very fortunate. But I like when people like Elgin Baylor, 646 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 2: to me, is maybe the most underrated player in the 647 00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 2: history of the NBA, because nobody saw him. If you 648 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 2: look at his numbers, you know, it's video game stuff 649 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 2: where you're going, yeah, and he was different, like he 650 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 2: played an athletic game and back then you did not 651 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 2: have that. And then you couple him with Jerry West, 652 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 2: you had two guys who are really changing the game 653 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 2: with their athleticism. But Elgin Baylor six ' four, great 654 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 2: great jumpers, score, rebounder, And I like that some of 655 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 2: these players that maybe you didn't know about, maybe you 656 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 2: just see their name in a book and maybe you know, 657 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 2: to bring their story to life. 658 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 14: Yeampoin, I really wish I could have seen Pete Marivitch 659 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 14: night to night play college basketball like we saw Jimmer 660 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 14: for a debt of a decade ago. He was averaging 661 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 14: twenty eight, which is really impressive and it was cool. 662 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 14: But I can't imagine a guy averaging forty four with 663 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 14: no three point line. It's hard to even process and 664 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 14: to be able to see at night, and that must 665 00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 14: have been amazing. 666 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 2: Well, you knew he was getting the ball and his 667 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 2: dad was the coach, and he was going to shoot. 668 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 2: But we've had a couple of you know this day 669 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 2: in sports history, Like he scored forty seven in the 670 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 2: second half of two games I think in the same 671 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 2: year he ended up with sixty nine points. And once again, 672 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 2: if you had a three point shot, and I had 673 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 2: the great LSU coach Dale Brown, I asked him if 674 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,680 Speaker 2: he could go back and look at the shooting charts 675 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:25,239 Speaker 2: of Pete Maravich when he played. So he did. He 676 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 2: went back and looked at the games and the shooting charts. Now, 677 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 2: once again they didn't have a three point shot. So 678 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 2: he superimposed a three point line and said Pete would 679 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 2: have averaged fifty five a game. And he's playing in 680 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 2: the SEC and now there wasn't the integration that obviously 681 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,840 Speaker 2: you have now. But still Pete was playing against some 682 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 2: pretty good teams. Kentucky was always good. But Dale said 683 00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 2: that I think Pete's final year at LSU he would 684 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 2: average fifty five a game, factoring in the three point shot. 685 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,720 Speaker 2: But that's Pete was shooting. There was no three point shot. 686 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 2: Imagine if you know, there's a three point shot. But 687 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 2: his handle was as good as anybody who's ever played 688 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 2: the game. Now, you can say Kyrie and you certainly 689 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:14,439 Speaker 2: have an argument, but having watched both of them, Pete 690 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 2: did things with the basketball that you know, maybe the 691 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 2: Globe Trotters were doing, and that's against the Washington generals. 692 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 16: Yes, Marv, Yeah, when it comes to ball handling, he 693 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 16: feels like that evolution chart. He feels like the first 694 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 16: guy walking erect like because everybody else was. Yeah, look 695 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,200 Speaker 16: at him and he's like, nah, we gonna we're gonna shoot, 696 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 16: We're gonna dribble like this. 697 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 2: Well, we give Bob Coosey a lot of credit, but 698 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 2: he was you know, in the era, he was kind 699 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 2: of a magician with the basketball, but he was right 700 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 2: hand dominant, but he was a creator. I mean, there 701 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,800 Speaker 2: are a lot of great things about Bob Cousy. Now, granted, 702 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 2: could he play now, No, he couldn't play now. I 703 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 2: get it. Uh, he would adapt to today, I'm guessing, 704 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,280 Speaker 2: but back then, the way he played, he was different 705 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 2: than anybody else in the court, and Pete was that 706 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 2: way too. Not everybody wanted to play with Pete because 707 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 2: you know, he was a gunner. I think he got 708 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 2: to the point where he was such a good score 709 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 2: he got bored and then he started making, you know, 710 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,840 Speaker 2: great passes, but really a wonderful ball handler. He was 711 00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 2: just never a winner, and I think that that was 712 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 2: something that always bothered him. He went to the Celtics 713 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 2: late in his career because Larry Bird wanted him to 714 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 2: go there to play with him. All right, let me 715 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 2: take a break. More phone calls coming up, Nick Wright 716 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:29,439 Speaker 2: coming up top of the hour. 717 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: After this, be sure to catch the live edition of 718 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,439 Speaker 1: The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six 719 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 1: am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio wap. 720 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 2: Seat and update the poll result. I'm not even sure 721 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 2: what the poll question is for hour two of this program. 722 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 5: We had a couple of like sort of poll questions 723 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 5: floating around here, but we haven't really addressed the hour 724 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 5: one pole question much biggest threat to the Eagles in 725 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 5: the NFC. Your options are Lions, forty nine ers, commanders, 726 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 5: let's see Buccaneers, Vikings, rams, other right now running away 727 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 5: with that one. Fifty eight percent is the Lions, followed 728 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 5: by the commanders. Then other has five percent. 729 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:11,399 Speaker 4: Of the vote. 730 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,240 Speaker 2: Who do you think the other is. 731 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:14,760 Speaker 5: That people are voting for. 732 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: Dallas. 733 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 5: I mean, that's got to be just Dallas fans though, 734 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 5: because nobody takes that seriously. 735 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 2: No, no, But you know, we talked about this, it's 736 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 2: probably mid season, maybe a little earlier, when we said 737 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 2: the Cowboys have a real problem coming up. It's kind 738 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:39,359 Speaker 2: of a good problem. Now they have to pay Dak 739 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 2: Prescott and they were gonna have to pay CD Lamb 740 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 2: and then they I said, they have to pay Micah Parsons. 741 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 2: So you have three guys who are going to be 742 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 2: top end at their position, so you better be really 743 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:55,080 Speaker 2: good in surrounding them, and that didn't go well. Michaeh. 744 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 2: Parsons is going to get forty million dollars. He will 745 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 2: be the highest paid non quarterback. I'm guessing when it's 746 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 2: all set and up, Cede Lamb got top end money 747 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 2: and Dak got top end money, they're not in a 748 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 2: good position, even though you have one you know, looks 749 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,280 Speaker 2: like surefire Hall of Famer and Michael Parsons, Cede Lamb 750 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 2: could be, and Dak has been a good quarterback in 751 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,879 Speaker 2: his career. But other than that, I mean, you've got 752 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 2: to make sure that you do not miss when it 753 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 2: comes to draft, and don't tell me you're all in 754 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 2: when you're not all in, when you don't do anything, 755 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,080 Speaker 2: and you hire your coach on a Friday night. 756 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 14: Yes, Pauline, it does seem like teams like even Tampa 757 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,280 Speaker 14: Bay is probably more threatening Green Bay Packers. 758 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 13: They're solid. 759 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 2: They made the playoffs, so sure Green. 760 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 13: Bay eleven wins last year. 761 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 14: Green Bay outscored their opponents by one hundred and twenty 762 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 14: two points. The Cowboys were outscored by one hundred and 763 00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 14: twenty points. 764 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, Seton. 765 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 12: Yeah. 766 00:37:51,520 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 5: You know, watching the Super Bowl this year, for some reason, 767 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 5: by the end of it, I was like, you know what, man, 768 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 5: we need to save ceed Lamb. We need to get 769 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 5: him off that team and get him into some that's 770 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,360 Speaker 5: going to contend because he's way too good of a 771 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 5: player to just be languishing there. 772 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 16: Yes, Marvin, is he next year, Sakuon Barkley that he 773 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,719 Speaker 16: goes to another team, Like, you know, we just got 774 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 16: to get a great player out of a bad situation. 775 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you can't spend all this money on Dak 776 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 2: and then take away his number one weapon semantics. Yeah, 777 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:23,399 Speaker 2: I think I think you can though. 778 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 5: I think people do that, But then what do you 779 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 5: going to the Chiefs let tyreek Hill go. I mean, 780 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 5: I granted you still had Kelsey, but well they have 781 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 5: a better quarterback. And that was a prett shocking move though. Yeah, 782 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 5: but it was a running back the wide receiver. Everybody's 783 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,399 Speaker 5: looking for those guys running back. You know, we were 784 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:48,359 Speaker 5: devaluing them. 785 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 2: And I'm curious to see what happens in the draft 786 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 2: if all of a sudden teams go you know, on 787 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 2: second thought, we might go a little higher for a 788 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 2: running back. Diane or Russini, she works for the Athletics. 789 00:38:59,520 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 2: She's an NFL reporter and the Scoop City podcast with 790 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 2: Chase Daniel, and she had this to say about Aaron Rodgers' 791 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 2: situation with the Jets When they. 792 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 18: Had conversations with Aaron Rodgers about what the future would 793 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 18: look like. If you're going to be part of this team, 794 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 18: you're going to attend all the trading camp, You're not 795 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 18: going to do Pat McAfee interviews anymore. 796 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:22,840 Speaker 13: Wait, they said that. 797 00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 18: Yeah, if you were to stay here, here's how we 798 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 18: would want. 799 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 5: It to be. 800 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 18: So this to me is Aaron Glenn getting control back. 801 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 14: So do you think that if he would have agreed 802 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:34,920 Speaker 14: to not do that stuff, that he would have been 803 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 14: their quarterback. 804 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:38,319 Speaker 18: I think that no matter what the Jets were going 805 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,840 Speaker 18: to say, Aaron Rodgers wanted to move on. 806 00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 2: Well, he did come back to talk to them, so 807 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 2: I don't know if he clearly wanted to move on, 808 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 2: because if that's the case, are you really going to 809 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 2: go out of your way and fly back to talk 810 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 2: to the Jets. I think Aaron Glenn did the right decision, 811 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,760 Speaker 2: you know, made the right decision. Move on from him, 812 00:39:57,160 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 2: but giving the audience out of respect. But you're going 813 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 2: to tell him not to be on McAfee. He's got 814 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,920 Speaker 2: to be here for all the you know, off season workouts. 815 00:40:06,480 --> 00:40:10,839 Speaker 2: I mean, okay, you know the McAfee thing. I don't 816 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 2: know how much you know, how many fires they were 817 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:17,440 Speaker 2: putting out because of that, But McAfee's paying in whatever, 818 00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,879 Speaker 2: a million dollars. You're not going to walk away from that. 819 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:22,000 Speaker 2: It's not like Aaron was doing it just out of 820 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 2: the goodness of his heart. He was being paid to 821 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 2: do that. But I mean, good for McAfee came up 822 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 2: with the business model to pay Saban and Belichick. Aaron 823 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 2: Rodgers and you make headlines. But if you're the Jets, 824 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 2: I don't know. Did he kind of take away from 825 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 2: all the bad play that you guys had or how 826 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 2: bad you are? Maybe we focused on it.
