• 1:29
  Speaker 5: have setting that up that way, you have one guy going.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: Oh we scory win.
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and then it just goes to cosgoing just absolutely
• 1:39
  Speaker 5: throttled tonight against the Knicks. I mean, but that's why
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: I felt watching I had both games on two TVs.
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: Thank god, thank god the Avs were they came back
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: in that epic fashion on Friday. There's so much to
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: get through because at ten o'clock this morning, NFL free agency.
• 1:55
  Speaker 5: That opens opens up that tampering window. Can we start
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: with the beauty of what this weekend was for the
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: Avs before the Dallas game even starts.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Can we start with two ships passing in the night,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: which are then null gets in the Avs.
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but one of them's a party boat. Everybody's on
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: a yacht. They're dancing, they're eating great food. The other
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: one is shipwreck.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because I look, Titanic is probably too strong of
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: a ship flying Dutchman.
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: It's a sailboat with a rip in the mask.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Now it's just a cruise ship that's too close to land.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: It's just getting too close to hitting.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Do you remember that Italian it's one of those cruise
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: ships that Italian ship captain that grounded his ship off
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: the coast of the cruise ship off the coast of
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: Italy about ten years ago, and they're venice. I think
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: it was the other side, but I'm not sure.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: It's one of the cruise ships.
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: Sure that has one of those illnesses that ravages everybody
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: on board, and so they have to like isolate, they
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: can't leave. Look, I want to save the Nuggets for later,
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: because I.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Mean, you started with the word dichotomy. I just wanted
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: to know I got established where we are right now,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: one franchise to the other. That's all I just want.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I want to make sure that I'm not the only
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: one that feels that way. Am I the only one
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: that feels that way?
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: What? What are you talking about?
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: I'm just talking about how it used to be. Both
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: teams were chugging toward a championship. Oh to complete opposite feelings.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: I don't feel the chug anymore for the Nuggets right now. No, no, no.
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: But but to the f side of things. When I
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: saw the Cadre trade went through after the deadline, correct
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: me if I'm wrong here, mode, because I think this
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: is what happened, and I don't know who laid out
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: the details of the original trade and what got nixed.
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: About it. The report was that the deal was in place,
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: it was gonna be done first and second rounder plus
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: some other things, and ownership came in and said, I'm
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: not taking any retention on that money, not doing it,
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: and it left just enough of a window I feel
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: like for the owner to be shamed into accepting it.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: I I'm almost positive that's what happened, because it's essentially
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: the same deal they they took on. What was it
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: most one point some million. It's so whatever that is.
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: I really think the owner was shamed by everybody in
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: the hockey community of what is this idiot doing mixing
• 4:41
  Speaker 5: this deal that's good for them? And he's like, all right, fine,
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: then I'll do the deal. And it worked out in
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: the apps favor, well partly two Vick and Brett. You'd
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: do it at the.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Very last second. Nobody else can work their way in
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: and try to weasel and drive a wedge and the
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: and the deal doesn't get done. But apparently there was
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: one really massive deal on the table in the league,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: not with us, but in the league.
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: Thatty no no, no, no, no no.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: But that didn't get done because it was after the deadline.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: They couldn't get it they couldn't get all the stuff
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: in in time. You've got to be in. I mean,
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: it's got to be in registry, is it Vic?
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: We don't know.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Vic wants to work for Central Registry?
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Is that what Vick wants to do?
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Yep, He's got to be there, and it's got to
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: be in Vic's little hands.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: Where is it New York, New York City? Vick's tiny hands?
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: So is is some dude at a keyboard just sitting
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: there with glasses? Essentially?
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, haven't you seen the way a deal goes down?
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: I wish we could Nelly, it's got to be out there.
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: There was this.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: I mean they just showed I think the Braydon Shen
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: deal and that they're sitting there on the speaker phone.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: He's like, okay, player makes uh seven point three million
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: dollars per year on his contract. He's got two points
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: sixty seven years exactly. Yeah, but it's got to be
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: in by three o'clock. And then everything gets stacked up
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: in the queue. What are those tiny hands? Those tiny
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: hands need to be need to be doing the registry thing. Okay,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: but the ABS get it done right at the very end.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: So good.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: But that's that's how it happened, and the Abs were
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: in a really good spot and being in Dallas on.
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: The hell day was it Friday?
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Hi do need?
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: People are like, whoa, that's a pretty good deal. Yeah,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: pretty good deal, and everybody's thrilled. You saw it payoff
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: yesterday against Minnesota. Great feed from Kadriy McKinnon for the
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: first goal of the game. He was happy to be back.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: He did things that I forgot that he could do. Yeah,
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: cool little redirects and this kind of stuff. It's gonna
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: be It's gonna be awesome.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: Can I stop you right there? And this is a
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: salary capped sport, so you can't compare. But if you're
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: the rest of the league in your walk in the
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Aves do their deals, you're watching the Aves work their magic.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: What what must the rest of the league feel like?
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Like if we were sitting around in Dallas or Minnesota
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: anywhere and we're watching the Aves make magic, You're like,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: the hell houses, how they do this?
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: Well?
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: We said that with Vegas for something, like how how
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: are they fitting all these guys?
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Vegas is.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: In trouble right now, by the way, they're a little
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: bit of trouble.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: I watched a little bit of that Edmonton game last night.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: You could you could sense it?
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: Could you feel it?
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: Vic?
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you could feel it. But look at just up
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: the middle. What you have?
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: Cadri's your third line set third.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: And he played wing last night. He played in the
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: Landy spot last night.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, which wait, let's stop, let's pause pause, yeah, pause,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: show passa pause, show Pausehow when they reported and I
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: say they because you guys weren't on when they said
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Landy was out lower body? I'm thinking, okay, what could
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: it be? And then the reports start coming in. He
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: was hit in the nether regions by puck in the
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Dallas game. Cal mccarr and, can Cale stop hurting him?
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: By the way, his biggest injury everything comes from Kale's
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: stick skate. Yeah, you ever get to hit it in
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: the little dingy?
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: This isn't it's not funny. I know that Vanda Scott
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: was joking around after the game.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Take that back, Nelly, you take back that drop right now.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: This after the game he showed us stuff.
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: What happened between that alloys?
• 8:37
  Speaker 7: That'll be well, it's a lower body injury, not a
• 8:43
  Speaker 7: comfortable one. And that's the timeframe that the doctors gave us.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: When you have.
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: An injury to the frank and or beans, because that's
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: what it sounds like, and the diagnosis motion is not
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: day to day, it's week to week. What the hell happened?
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: One of my all time favorite things is from something
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: about Mary and Warren.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah it could be.
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: I uh, I love warn in that movie. Such a good,
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: Such a good. Don't touch my headphones? But wait, you
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: can't touch his headphone. This is help me out here.
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: Don't they wear cups? Yes?
• 9:29
  Speaker 5: Vic, being somebody who played third base and work cup.
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: It still hurts a lot and you can get damaged
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: even if it hits it.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: There was a dent.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you guys saw Landy's cup. Yeah, yeah,
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: it's it's dented. Yeah, I'm looking at Landy's cups. Well
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: he showed it. He did, yes, when the Dallas game.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: It's he came back and played. Hey man, he's gonna
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: be fine.
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, that's easy for you to say.
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's for you to say.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: It is.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: Hey, most how about you spread your legs. I'm gonna
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: kick in the nuts right now, and then I'm gonna say, Vic, Vick,
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: look at me, He's gonna be fine.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: This is you know what this this is going to
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: require a joint operation of Rocky Mountain Men's Clinic, QC Kinetics.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: What else do we need here? What else do we
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: have on hand?
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: Zero res We'll clean the area. Yes, we'll get that.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Rock, all of it, rock, plumbing, heating here, electrical, all
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: of it in there.
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: It was I think an eighty three eighty.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Four mile an hour reshot. I mean, Cale got a
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: lot on.
• 10:40
  Speaker 5: It straight to the Nats.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: That's crazy.
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: So Landy's missing some time now.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: I suppose it'll be fun.
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: But to win the way that you did, like most
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: we talked about this, this being like an opportunity to
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: put those two teams in your division. So far in
• 10:58
  Speaker 5: the rear view, and god, the Dallas game felt a
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: little bit like you give up three goals in the
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: span of ten minutes in the first period. You're battling
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: your way back, you can't quite get there. Towards the
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: end of the game, you got goalie pulled. Ben misses
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: the open net, which gives you one more opportunity that.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Would that that shot, that little turn of events will
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: live for a long time. That ended the game. It
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: looked like a game's over. Yep. Did he just relax
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: on that movie?
• 11:26
  Speaker 5: He was just sort of nonchalant.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he had see here's where this is where I
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: don't know if it's ego, if it's I don't know
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: what it is. You have to get inside the head
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: of Jamie Benn and I can't do that. But he
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: had two guys into the zone with him. If he
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: wanted to mccarr's flying on the back check try and deny. Yeah,
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: and he got to stick out there, force benders, shoot
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: it off the side of the net. If he just
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: puts the brakes on hard, I mean, if he just
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: bears down hard, puts the breaks on, delivers to a teammate,
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: it's it's it's you know, it's rifled right to the
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: back of the Yeah.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Correct.
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: But he does this little beckhand.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Flippy flip and I'm like too cool for school, And
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: I said, boy, that was incredibly nonchalant by Ben.
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: But it allows Val on the other side for anybody
• 12:12
  Speaker 5: wanted Vowe traded tough weekend for you guys, because he
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: was awesome this weekend. But he comes back nails it
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: with thirteen seconds left. Snipe show and you get pushed
• 12:23
  Speaker 5: in ot. Here's what's impressive mode. The Avs did not
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: look like the usual Aves in three on three. They
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: felt a lot more conservative, which I think they should
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: be in.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: This overtime stuff. Bro, They've turned a corner. You could
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: see the difference. They had a horrible record going into
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: that game. These last two overtimes and shootouts, obviously they won.
• 12:42
  Speaker 5: Remember VIC, they are like hyper aggressive in the three
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: on three. That's how they always been. The amount of
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: times they took it back out of the zone reset.
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: I was like, okay, doing this a little bit more conservatively.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: I like it.
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: And yesterday too, No, yes on both of them.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Mark Moser of the Dallas game. Yes, sir, you've called
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: a lot of hockey. Yeah you're you're up there in age.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: You've called a lot. Is that the greatest shootout you've
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: ever called?
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: It was pretty awesome, I VIC. One time I called
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: a twelve round shootout in Arizona where it was actually
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: won by Cody McCleod. Believe it or not, Cody McLeod
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: won the shootout. I remember that twelve rounds kter that's
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: crazy and he wanted that was I mean, that was
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: awesome and long and you know, who knows what's gonna happen.
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: But in terms of the comeback, pulling that extra point
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: out of that quality of the shots, beautiful shots, so
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: in the saves. Yeah, and what's amazing, Valve twice in
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: a row has done it. Now it's sort of an
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: it's like a Forsburg. He does a Forsburg where and
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: then he you know, it's like a reverse Forsburg.
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: You're you're waiting until there's like one inch of ice
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: left between you and the goal.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, except for you know, except for him.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: It's on his it's on it's not a backhand, it's
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: on his on his forehand. Yeah, but it's it's just
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: a beautiful, beautiful move and he gets these goalies to
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: bite hardvic as glorious as it was.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: And it was glory, My goodness. Where do you think
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Mackenzie Blackwood's head is right now?
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: As a goalie, it should be totally fine. It should
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: be I mean, listen, everybody's gonna have a bad day,
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: really too bad plays. He throws it right into to
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: Tave's ardiandboards yuck, and.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: The ben gole. He had everything covered.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: You watch his five hole open up on his push
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: okay to his left, and he maybe thinks Ben's gonna
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: go around the hornet, so he's making a push to
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: his left and Ben slides it five hole. Really nice goal.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna give Ben credit for that, really nice goal.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: But he had Yeah, a couple were and then not
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: only that, but you've given up four and coach Bennard's like, hey, look, man,
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: change the vibe a little bit. Change the momentum. Even
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: if my it's not all on my guy. You've seen
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: that before. Goalies get yanked. It's not all on the goalie, right,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: and it changes the momentum. When he comes in. Obviously
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: he's playing great, you start to roll a little bit
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: and eventually you tie it.
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: One thing's clear, Wedgewood is better than Blackwood at shootout situations.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: He's really good. Yeah, well he is now.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: I mean he wasn't early on this season, but he
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: is now pretty good.
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: I thought Wedgwood was always good and Blackwood was the
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: one that struggled the worst of all time.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: Was JS Shager. He hated shootouts. He's tough, he just
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: give it up. He's like, yeah, whatever score on me
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: is leave the crease. A couple of things as we
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: go along here number one that was having a terrific game.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: We could feel it coming right when I were talking
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: about it. Guys, we could feel that coming. He was
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: getting chances, the way his legs were moving, the way
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: he was moving, I'm like, he's he's starting to really
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: recapture a lot of good stuff.
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: Obviously he scores.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought he's pretty good. Yesterday I ran into
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: somebody in the press box on Saturday. Who's that ninety six? Oh?
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, how was it?
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: I was trying to go to the rust to him,
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: and I hear, oh yah.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: Oh does he know how did that interaction go? Does
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: he know?
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Well, first I took a whiz and then I went
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: and we talked.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: That's so disrespectful. Disrespectful, wash your hands afterwards.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: Can I explain we don't broadcastaper. We don't broadcast from
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: the press box. We broadcast from one of the levels.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: So to get to the press box, I have to
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: take an escalator way down to the bottom, get on
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: an elevator, go all the way to the top. You've
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: got to wait. I had to pee so bad that
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: I honestly the Pope could have been there trying to
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: bless me, and I would have.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: Run by him.
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: So wait, did you talk to him or not? We're
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: talking about Meko, I said after I peed.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: Yes, I came back and had a nice conversation where
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: he waited for you.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: He waited while you did your deed to speak to you.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: No, he was talking to somebody else.
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: Were you honest with him about how you've reacted since
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: his exit?
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Did you tell him that when his name is
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: brought up you won't even refer to him by name
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: on the.
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: Show that you haven't said Miko in like over a year?
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: I just did. But no, But with him, were you
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: were you? Were you a phony? Yeah?
• 17:12
  Speaker 5: How about this motion? Did you walk up and say hey, Nko,
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: nice to see you, because that would be a fake?
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: Yes? How fake? Were you a little?
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: So tell me where where did the fake this take us? Well,
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: we didn't have a chance to get into look, he
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: yelled at me.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: I didn't. I didn't.
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: I didn't instigate this because Miko's nice, because he's a.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Nice guy, because he's a normal human. He's a normal, nice,
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: normal man that understands the business sports, unlike unlike one
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: of the co hosts on a sports show.
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: You know what I've never heard and Vic, we've we've
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: had interactions with Miko at the golf tournaments or whatever.
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: You know what, I've never heard bad guy when he
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: was here. We loved him and I will not let
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: but some of us just can't.
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: Whatever gone I said, I didn't get the finish. I agree,

• 18:26
  Speaker 6: I know.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: That's a setup. I go on. What was said? Hurry up?
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: Bottom line is that nothing. I just asked him how
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: he was feeling. I told him I missed him. I
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: did tell him that.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Oh what a phoney, miss detective determined. I guess why?
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Why why am I so buddy?

• 18:59
  Speaker 2: than money, like immortality, and you could have had that.

• 19:18
  Speaker 1: right in the face of a human.
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: I agree.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: How can you? I was?

  Speaker 1: For the first time since he was traded. You were
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: an adult? Yes?
• 19:35
  Speaker 5: With with that subject.
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: What if I thought I was going to get this
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: kind of reaction, I wouldn't have brought it up.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: How fast did you go to the bathroom my time?
• 19:45
  Speaker 5: Okay, hang on, I do love this though, I said,
• 19:49
  Speaker 5: long whiz or you faked to him? Moser goes a
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: little all right, So we'll get back to the Abs
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: and Interstellar a weekend in a little bit. Got to
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: talk about the Nuggets free agency opening up at ten
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: o'clock this morning in the NFL.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: Have you been scamming the free agent wideouts? Does that
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: interest you at all?
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Well? It all sun when we were off the air
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: at ten am this morning.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: As usual, everything will start to happen.
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: The BRONC has also made some moves that I one
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: I understand and like the other one I don't at all.
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: So we'll get to that in a little bit as well.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: Stagram.
• 20:24
  Speaker 6: First off, if you're talking about Bo online, you're a coward,
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: absolute coward. But I just want to say that I
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: proven and guard him a little bit, but I mean
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: it says a lot. You know, he he blanks it out.
• 20:37
  Speaker 6: And we talked about it this week. You know, we
• 20:39
  Speaker 6: don't care what other people think. We know what we
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: have in the building, and we know what he's made of,
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: and we don't really care what people have to say.
• 20:47
  Speaker 6: So Dragon Slayer sixty nine with his seven to eleven
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: slurpey in his mom's basement. I don't give it what
• 20:51
  Speaker 6: he has to say, right, and Bo doesn't either, So.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it always in your mom's basement. Slurpies are delicious.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: By the way, Adam Troutman is the best SoundBite on
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: that team. I'm telling you, after every game you go
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: to Troutman's locker, you will get the best stuff.
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: Adam Troutman. I can't see the world in which he's
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: worth six million a year.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: Well, apparently they feel that way, and he feels that way.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: Did you see some of the stuff he told Chris
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: thomasin last night after signing the deal hit me last night.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Chris thomasin got a hold of him, and he was
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: really quite he said, quote regarding the three year, eighteen
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: million dollars deal, I feel like I've earned it. I
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: feel like it matches what the market is for someone
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: like me. I had a bunch of other teams that
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: were really interested in me, so that definitely helped out.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: But obviously I wanted to come back to Denver. I'm
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: one of the best two way tight ends in the game. Wow.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: If I do say so myself, If I do say
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: so myself, if I do say so myself, can somebody please?
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: I'm an all around tight end and the contract shows it.
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: I'm one of the best blockers in the entire league,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: regardless of what PFF thinks. I don't care what they say,
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: and no other player does either. I'm an all around
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: tight end.
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: Goodness gracious, okay, Adam, not to be Dragonslayer sixty nine
• 22:20
  Speaker 5: over here or something like that.
• 22:21
  Speaker 6: Dragon Slayer sixty nine.
• 22:23
  Speaker 5: You're two way. I'm the best two way something something
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: in the game. Your best season Esbronco is two hundred
• 22:33
  Speaker 5: and five receiving yards two four, so two hundred and four,
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: So what what am I missing in the two way
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: department of this.
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: I don't know the way they use him. I guess
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: maybe he feels he's better than he is. Listen, they're
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: the ones who put the money up. Look, I understand
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: it must have been there must have been some interest.
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: He's not lying, I understand. I've said this before with
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: other franchises, and now I think that the Broncos are
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: in this category. They have earned the right for you
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: to trust to this before you question it. But it's
• 23:09
  Speaker 5: really hard for me not to question it. When we
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: talk about playmakers on this team and getting more of
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: that here, you can say that he's a good blocking
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: tight end. I don't even I haven't noticed that he's
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: that great of a blocking tight end either. I don't know.
• 23:25
  Speaker 5: Like this one just for the first time in a
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: long time with the Broncos, they just made a move
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: where I'm just like, huh that. And when we're talking
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: about sort of hey, you got limited cap space to spend,
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: the stampering window opens up at ten o'clock. How are
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: you going to divvy out the cash for getting some
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: playmakers in here? And six mil a year goes to
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: a tight end that has nineteen catches a season.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: I just I'm confused. That's all right, Bo doesn't either.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: Well, nobody cares what you have to say. Brett on
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: the Denver Broncos. No, listen real quick, go back to
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: the slurpy thing. I can't do you eat or drink?
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: Is slurpy? What do you do?
• 24:05
  Speaker 7: Oh?
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: You drink slurpy?
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I I can't what I I like the
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: little spoon at the end. I mean that's always my favorite.
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: The Scooper Yeah yeah, baby, h.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: Fan, Hey, this is before your time, powdered. Nobody made
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: better smoothies or whatever the hell you call icey sworpies
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: slurp kmart.
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: Well the original didn't they?
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: The vul Bear kmart was really good all the time.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: I went to the kmart and federal there with my
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: mom and Cherry just to get the icys.
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: No, I've had I've had some ices in my day.
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: The problem is I can't have one of those without
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: getting a brain freeze. Well it's because you, Yeah, I
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: do everything. Well, yeah, I cannot control myself. I don't care.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: At my age, I still get a headache. I still
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: get the.
• 24:52
  Speaker 5: Brain freeze going ow ow.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: There's no fixing it.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: No, you just gotta father's got to wear it thirty seconds.
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: But but listen back Trumpman, though, I mean, they obviously
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: value that position to that kind of money. And I
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: guess in the grand scheme of things, it's not twenty
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: million dollars a year. You know, we're not talking about crazy,
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: crazy money. But you know why then why do you go?
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: I guess, Look, the Ingram thing didn't work out, or
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: it hasn't worked out so far, not the impact player
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: that we thought, or they haven't utilized him the way
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: that we had hoped, or the way that maybe.
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: He could have.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know, it's just, yeah, you just take
• 25:29
  Speaker 2: a little bit out of the kiddy, now, vic The
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: reason why a little bit.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: The reason why Brett is so tough to judge this
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: is because he's not a game breaking tight end. Now
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: that's what you were looking for.
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: But if he was like all world blocking, I might
• 25:45
  Speaker 5: be able to understand it. But I don't even think
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: he was that. This one just confuses me. This feels
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: to me like they got a guy in that locker
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: room that they liked and they wanted to keep, and
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: it was.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: Well, clearly Sean Payton likes him. He came from the
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: Saints to the Denver Broncos.
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: But it's the infinity of the relationship that you have
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: with an awesome teammates. No, he obviously from that play
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: is he sounds like an amazing teammate. But it's you
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: know how Sean Payton operates. It's like once you're in
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: his circle, you're in his circle, right, Like, once you're
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: in there, it's hard for you to leave. It's kind
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: of the same way that Michael Malone had with his rotations.
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: It's hard to crack Michael Malone's rotation, but once you do,
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: doesn't matter what mistakes you make, He's gonna trust you.
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: He just feels like one of those guys Will Harton now, Yes, exactly.
• 26:30
  Speaker 5: Now moving on to ten o'clock this morning, Here's what
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: I want to see. I just want to see at
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: ten o one the Broncos did something. I want them
• 26:38
  Speaker 5: to have a guy identified that they've had identified for
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: months and it's like deals done, welcome in, you know,
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: Jeremy Fowler said, they've shown interest in Travis etn Fine, whatever.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: Just want to see a playmaker, Yes, you want to
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: see a playmaker signed? Yeah? The what it's not even
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: called the tampering period anymore. It's it's something else. It's
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: something else.
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: No, I think it's legal tampering.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: They got another name for now. They've fixed it. But
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: whatever it is, you want to see. At ten am,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Denver time this morning, the Denver Broncos are all out
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: on a guy that's gonna make a playmaking difference for
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: this receiver. Yep, somebody, Yep. I prefer it to be
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: a running back.
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: They've done this, by the way, the last few years.
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: It feels like the Broncos when this thing opens up,
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: it's like, Bam, Ben Powers is here, Bam, Michael Clinch's
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: he or something like. They've done this in the past,
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: Zach Allen, whoever. I just want to see that, just
• 27:33
  Speaker 5: that they have committed to somebody on the playmaking side
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: of things now. They also signed back over the weekend,
• 27:41
  Speaker 5: Justin Sternad, which I think is a good signing that guy, like,
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: I don't know what his top level is as a linebacker,
• 27:48
  Speaker 5: but I feel like he's always been solid with everything
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: that he's asked to do, asked to Feeling for Alex Singleton,
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: he makes a move or he does something well.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: He feels like a really good Swiss army knife that
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: you can get just a gamer.
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a good way to put it. You know,
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: what have you talking abo about?
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: In Italian? What was that all about his last name?
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: What does it mean? The last name Stunad in Italian
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: means something different than Sternod. It's close enough, so at it? Yeah,
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: do you have it, Nelly.
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: He'll pull this up in a second.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So Sternad. By the way, when he signs the
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: deal he signed, which is pretty good deal, he's expecting
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: to start, or at least be a rotational player. And
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: the way I look at the Broncos inside linebackers, let's
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: say you're not given a starter's job, you're gonna rotate
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: anyway you're gonna get. You're gonna get plenty of minutes. Right,
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he was playing and all that
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: stuff to you're gonna get all kinds of time in there.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: He made some key plays. I'll like. I love that
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: signing to be honest. Of the guys, you know, when
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: I looked at Alex Singleton's the money he's gonna make
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: versus stern was probably the better deal.
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: Yeah, Texter says in reference to Troutman. Didn't they bring
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: in an old blocking specialist tight end last year, so
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: how good is he really? Yes, they had Mercedes Lewis
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: that was jumping up and down on the roster towards
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: the end of the year.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: Listen, I mean, it's hard to make sense of what
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: they're doing at tight end. I like, you can make
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: sense of everything the Broncos do. I could say, okay, yeah,
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: they signed all their offensive lineman and defensive lineman that
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: there's obviously a strategy to get strong in the trenches.
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know what their game plan is at tight end.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: I've never known it. I still don't know it. I
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: don't know what it is.
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: That's where I That's why I said Vic. It's like
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: it's the first move in a long time where I'm
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: really confused on what the purpose was. Now, some breaking
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: news in the NFL this morning, if you guys have
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: missed it. The Dolphins are going to release to Am
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: on that post June first designation thing, so they are
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: completely restarting in Miami. This just coming down in the
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: NFL that the Packers just finalized a deal to send
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: Rashaan Gary to the Cowboys. Hmmm. In exchange for a
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: late round pick. So that's happening in the NFL. So
• 30:15
  Speaker 5: the Cowboys and the Packers, I guess this is a
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: yearly tradition. Now they trade an edge rusher to each other.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: Do you listen?
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: Quarterbacks have been released and they've had to be paid
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: off and bonuses accelerate and so on for quite some time,
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: but nothing like the Russell Wilson deal.
• 30:32
  Speaker 5: Nothing.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: Do you think the teams now with the Kyler Murray
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: situation that to a situation? Are teams looking at it and.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: Going all right?
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: The Broncos were able to negotioat Yeah, they were able
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: to negotiat their way through those troubled waters.
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: Why don't we just do the same damn thing? But
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: to was Ode, you know much, he's.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: Odovic ninety nine million dollars, that's.
• 30:53
  Speaker 5: What he had. That's what he's gonnaccount get.
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: Ninety nine is crazy?
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: What was what was Russell?
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: Would tag? Russell was dead CAPI? Yeah, what was the
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: dead cap?
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: On?
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: Eighty five total?
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: I think what is it on Deshaun Watson? That's outrage?
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: It's still one hundred and fifty year So that's insane, Vic,
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: because that's all guaranteed bread every dime. I didn't even
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: see this one. There's so many moves happening right now,
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: right before free agency opens up. The Jets have also
• 31:21
  Speaker 5: traded for Mika Fitzpatrick. So they got him from the Dolphins,
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: and the Dolphins are just offloading and exchange fire. What
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: do you think Mika Fitzpatrick went for fifth good safety,
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: seventh round pick?
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Good? Lord?
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: That's that is just you're you're just yeah, you're just
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: burning it down.
• 31:40
  Speaker 5: You're burning it down.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: Mark. Hey, guys, keep this in mind.
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: Hey, hey, if the Dolphins are doing this, hey, Jalen Waddell,
• 31:47
  Speaker 5: I got a fourth for you.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: Here you go.
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: You just want to get rid of salary, give me salary.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: And keep this in mind too. As long as they're
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: in this offloading project and they're looking for a quarterback
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: now right, Who is Miami's quarterback right now? Who is it?
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure? I know?
• 32:04
  Speaker 5: Skyler Thompson.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: All right, So I keep this in mind. The Broncos
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: just re signed Sam Ellinger.
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: It's Quinn yours, okay, And then my guy's not going
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: to get a shot though, I bet what do you bet?
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: Hand? No, he's a free agent one year deal for
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Sam Allinger two million dollars. They're bringing him back. I
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: guarantee you. The Broncos have approached the Miami Dolphins about Stitty.
• 32:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that makes sense. I don't know what are you
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: getting return for that. They're trying to trade something big
• 32:39
  Speaker 5: for him.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: If if you're saying you want one of those big
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: names you want you want to waddle, why can't you
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: do a deal?
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah, package that in with it?
• 32:48
  Speaker 7: Sure?
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, sure, I mean Vick you if you're if you
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: want a running back, I don't know if they want
• 32:55
  Speaker 5: to do it. A Chaine down there is unbelievable.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: You have something they're gonna need. They don't have a
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: quarterback right now.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: Why would they give up their running back? He's only
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: twenty four years old. He's just a young guy.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: He's very talking to anybody.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: Look what they're doing well, I mean the Broncos didn't
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: when they ate all the Russell Wilson money.
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: They didn't just gas everybody and go.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: But the Dolphins are well, I mean, Fitzpatrick do They've
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: been trading guys here over the last year. They've been
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: sort of we purposing.
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: Tyreek is gone so they don't have to pay him.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Anymore.
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: Tyree. They got rid of Bradley Chubb this offseason. I
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: mean they're moving sound.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but those sound to me. The Tyreek and the
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: the Tyreek and the Chubb sound like smart moves. I
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: mean Tyreek gotta he blew up his leg?
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Right? Is he even gonna be fast anymore?
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: Smart?
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: And Chubb is a little bit long in the tooth.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: He's more easily replaceable with a younger player making one
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: tenth of the money.
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: I could see the Broncos offering jared'stid him in a
• 34:03
  Speaker 1: pick for Jalen Waele.
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: Done, done, grab it. Say, Miami's got cooin yours. I look,
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: and they got my guy.
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: I think he's a free agent.
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: I think he is. He's signed a one year deal.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: I think he's a free he'll be back for big.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: He never touched the field.
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah, money hasn't played at.
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: Least thirty.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: Thirty thirty two.
• 34:28
  Speaker 5: Perky got it? Uh, get back to free agency in
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: a bit. But let's talk about I've pushed this off
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: as long as I could. The Nuggets and that embarrassment
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: against the Knicks.
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: Hey, I'm gonna admit to you before we get the break,
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: I'm scared.
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: I'm scared too. I think everybody's scared.
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: The guy I admitted that I am. I am deeply,
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: deeply concerned about our.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I'll say this before we go to break. For those
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: who are scared, who are dooming, that's the big doomers.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: It's up to the Denver Nuggets to right that wrong.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: It's not up to us. It's not up to fans,
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: it's not It's up to them in this stretch to
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: show that they're for reels.
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: We'll get to it in just a second huge game
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: tonight five thirty against the Thunder.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: Get to it next. Yeah, guys, we lost. This is
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: one game.
• 35:18
  Speaker 8: I don't know if anybody understands that or not, but
• 35:21
  Speaker 8: we didn't drop to ninth in the West.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: It was a really bad loss.
• 35:23
  Speaker 8: We got blown out. Played well yesterday, played well against Boston,
• 35:27
  Speaker 8: had a chance to win the game at OKAC against
• 35:29
  Speaker 8: the best team in the league. I look at the
• 35:32
  Speaker 8: totality of games. You know where we're at. You know,
• 35:34
  Speaker 8: a game where we just totally let go of at
• 35:37
  Speaker 8: the last fifteen minutes to get blown out does not
• 35:40
  Speaker 8: sum up the team. These things happen in professional sports.
• 35:43
  Speaker 8: You know, people can kill me say I'm not being
• 35:46
  Speaker 8: hard enough on them. Whatever it is, we'll talk about it,
• 35:49
  Speaker 8: we'll clean it up, and we'll move on to OKAC
• 35:51
  Speaker 8: because that's that's what you.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Have to do.
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: I entirely disagree, entirely. This isn't one game, This isn't
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: a bad night. This is a bad night that's packaged
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: in a wealth of games that you've performed poorly. And
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: that's my beef.
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: If mos, if they were, can you let people know
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: why Nelly is playing that music?
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I'll get there in just a second. Turner
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: Cameron Vic. If they were eight and three in the
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: last eleven games and that happens, maybe it's easier for
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: me to shrug off. But it's not. They They have
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: been playing at a poor pace for a while now.
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: And the reason why Nelly is playing that song in
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: particular is because there is a very odd thing at
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: ball Areta where press conferences by.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: The coach are a design flaw.
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: Yes, they're done right across the hall to the doors
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: of the visiting locker room.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: The wall that is shared between the media room where.
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: The press it's a shared wall, it's not as shared wall.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: So the wall that's behind coach Adleman and coach Bednar.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: When you see those press conferences, that is the visiting
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: NBA locker room right there. So anytime a visiting team
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: beats the Nuggets, they blast their music and interrupts with
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: the entire press conference, which has always led me to ask,
• 37:17
  Speaker 1: why the hell are we doing press conferences right next
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: to the opposing team's locker room.
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: And what happened with the Knicks. It was Josh Hart's birthday,
• 37:27
  Speaker 5: they win by forty points. They're having a whale of
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: a time inside that locker room, and it is blaring
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: as David Adelman is trying to make sense of how
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: they lost that game.
• 37:40
  Speaker 9: That badly, and the songs that blared over his presser
• 37:43
  Speaker 9: like we just heard unwritten by Natasha Bettingfield. Also in
• 37:46
  Speaker 9: honor of Josh Hart's birthday, they blasted Birthday Sex by
• 37:50
  Speaker 9: Jeremiah and Birthday Song by Two Chains, which is the
• 37:55
  Speaker 9: one where he very proudly proclaims that he wants. All
• 37:58
  Speaker 9: he wants for his birthday is a big booty gardening import.
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: The funniest thing in the entire press conference is David
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Adelman just stopping midsense and saying that's a great song
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: by the way, Yeah, reacting to the song blaring behind
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: him as he's trying to assess what the hell just
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: happened to the Nuggets?
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: Well, mos, what if I said about my brain with
• 38:17
  Speaker 5: new information that or new names of people? What happens
• 38:21
  Speaker 5: that my brain is the bouncer outside has to go
• 38:25
  Speaker 5: out if one comes, he's got the velvet rope. And
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: it's like if if new information is coming out, I
• 38:29
  Speaker 5: need to forget something else that's already in my head. Well,
• 38:32
  Speaker 5: in the case of the Nuggets lineup, that happens again,
• 38:35
  Speaker 5: enter Aaron Gordon. But to do that you have to
• 38:38
  Speaker 5: exit Jamal Murray.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: It's unreal. One of those seasons, man, it just doesn't
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: feel like one of those years where you just can't
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: get You know, you have those days, Mosuer you have
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: those days more than anybody. You step on a rake
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: every step.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Well, sure, yeah, sometimes people throw rakes in my head.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: Sure, but you know what I'm saying.
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: That happens on occasion that happens.
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: It's it's unreal. What is taking place with the Nuggets
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: and their injuries?
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: And listen, when you have all the guys, I guess
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: when all the guys are in. You know, you feel
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: like there's still going to be a real good chance
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: because you know how good this team can be. But
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: some of these losses, and I know you're in the
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: back to back, but giving up a buck forty two
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: to the Knicks, I don't care if the entire starting
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: lineup is out. Yeah, you can't give up one hundred and.
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: Forty two points to the New York Knicks.
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: Well, let me let me give you my things. You
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: can't do it. You can't do it. You can't do it.
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: Coach Adlman is right in one respect. Every team goes
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: through this. Every team has one of those ridiculous, embarrassing
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: defeats where they're just not in it. It happened to Oklahoma
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: City when they got beat at home by Charlotte earlier
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: this year. Every team, however, however, here is my pushback
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: on it. Time and place. Yep, now is not the
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: time nor the place for one of those losses, because
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: you are in a playoff push against an incredibly difficult schedule,
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: and everybody knows that you've had problems at home. They're
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: just not very good at home. Guys are seventeen and
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: thirteen at ball Arena. I never thought that I'd be
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: sitting here in March telling you that the Denver Nuggets
• 40:19
  Speaker 1: are only four games above five hundred at home. That
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: is just unreal to me. Seventeen and thirteen at Ball Arena. Yep. Now,
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: Jamal Murray's injury, it looked bad. He's listed as questionable,
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: which is good news, great news, yep. Great. He's not out,
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: he's questionable, which tells me if you know Jamal, if
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: you know Jamal Murray and you do, he won't play tonight.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: He gon't play if he's listed as questionable in my
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: and I don't know anything beyond that. I don't. I
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: have no information, but I've I've seen Jamal Murray come
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: back from injury. You guys have two Yeah, that dude,
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: he comes back. He's tough, he's a stud. When he
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: comes back, he plays hard and well. He guts it out. Man.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: But I feel like right now, this is me gutting
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: out this Nuggets stretch.
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: I agree motion, this is it to them now. See,
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: you can't tell me, oh, still believe, don't don't lose belief.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: You can't tell you got to prove that to me.
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: This is me, Vic, go ahead, now shut up shop
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: and take the pain.
• 41:30
  Speaker 5: Well, listen, I think it's shut up and take the pain.
• 41:34
  Speaker 5: It's like injuries are a problem. Yes, I have a
• 41:39
  Speaker 5: bigger problem with that game, and it comes down to
• 41:42
  Speaker 5: a couple of guys, and it's anger is not the
• 41:47
  Speaker 5: right word for it. It's just I'm frustrated.
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: Vic.
• 41:51
  Speaker 5: You've been on the home record thing for a while.
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: That's the biggest one for me. That and nobody, Nobody
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: talks about it. Nobody wants to talk about the home record.
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: That's the biggest indicator for me.
• 42:02
  Speaker 5: The reason why I have harped on late game situations
• 42:06
  Speaker 5: and closing things out so much is because I feel like,
• 42:09
  Speaker 5: more than anything else, that's a confidence thing. And I
• 42:12
  Speaker 5: got two guys in this team right now that are unconfident.
• 42:16
  Speaker 5: And it's very clear that he didn't even play poorly.
• 42:19
  Speaker 5: Cam Johnson didn't in his return over the weekend.
• 42:22
  Speaker 2: But.
• 42:24
  Speaker 5: He is admitted that he is struggling confidence wise right now.
• 42:28
  Speaker 5: You know who else is very clearly Christian Brown. I
• 42:33
  Speaker 5: looked at his shooting numbers. He is down ten percent
• 42:36
  Speaker 5: from the field from last year. Now he shot fifty
• 42:38
  Speaker 5: eight percent because he was a monster in transition and
• 42:40
  Speaker 5: got transition buckets. More concerning, know what he shot last
• 42:44
  Speaker 5: year from three was thirty nine point seven percent. Guess
• 42:47
  Speaker 5: what he's at this year twenty eight, twenty eight. That's
• 42:51
  Speaker 5: a problem, man. That's all in between the years, and
• 42:54
  Speaker 5: that's that's my concern. It's like, that's not hey, my
• 42:58
  Speaker 5: ankle hurts a little bit. It'll get healthy in a week.
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: You might not make it through the confidence part. By
• 43:06
  Speaker 5: the end of the year. You might be toiling around
• 43:09
  Speaker 5: in that stuff during the postseason.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Still, hey, man, listen, dude. It is March ninth, and
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: the Never Nuggets are the sixth seed in the Western Conference.
• 43:20
  Speaker 5: They fall in three spots since getting their big guns healthy.
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: So when I keep hearing we'll give it time. When
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: they get healthy, things will turn, things will turn. What
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: if and we've asked this question, what if they don't
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: get healthy?
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: That's well, I've been asking myself that for quite some time.
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: I don't want to think about that, vic because everybody
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: appears to be on a timeline where they'll be back
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: before the postseason begins. That being said, when I look
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: at this team right now and I have as I
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: hope for them as you do, they don't look and they.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: Certainly don't look like a championship.
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: They don't look and they don't behave like a team
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: that's going to make a run at all.
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: That's it. And it's just a schizophrenic nature of their
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: of their game. And I know Jamal came out the
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: other day and and they had won two in a row,
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: and he felt good about it, and you know he's saying, ah,
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: you know he was, he was being a smart Alec
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: afterwards when he had forty five? Was that Utah?
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: I think, yeah?
• 44:16
  Speaker 5: No, was or was it the uh? Was it the
• 44:18
  Speaker 5: Lakers game?
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: Yep?
• 44:20
  Speaker 5: Okay? Good?
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: Uh?
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: But but I think that we, you know, we look
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: at this team. They don't look like they should look.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: They don't behave like they should behave. Vic let me
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: go back here to January twenty seventh, can I That
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: was the one on nine, one oh seven loss against
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: the Pistons at home. So you've got here's here's the
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: schedule lines up like this l win win, lost, loss, loss,
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: win loss, win loss, win loss, win loss, loss win
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: win loss. Like there's no there's there's nothing being put together.
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: There's no consistency. You can't find one thing one night,
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: and then the next night it's that you've you've you know,
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: you've really found something and you utilize that to win
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: that game, and so on. Nothing is carrying over. Everything's
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: a one shot. Hey are we gonna win? We're not
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: gonna win.
• 45:08
  Speaker 5: And I mean it's it's just there's no consistency from
• 45:10
  Speaker 5: night to night.
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: Let me make this very clear to all Nuggets fans
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: and the loyal fans out there, because I've had this
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: debate with people before. It is incumbent on the Nuggets
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: to make me believe you believe. It is not incumbent
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: on me believing in them. So for people to say, well,
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: watch this, they're gonna make a liar out of you.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: They're gonna turn it around. Okay, good, I'm hoping they do.
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: I'm hoping that, But as of right now, mid March,
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: I don't believe they're a championship team right now, I
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: don't not right now. Can they become one, can't sure.
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: But it's on them to make me believe, not me.
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: I'm just a viewer like you are. I'm an observer.
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm telling you how I feel right now. How
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: many people right now feel like this team is a
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: championship squad. And if you feel that way. If you
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: feel that way, good for you. Good for you. Man,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: You have some optimism in that cup of Joe this
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: morning that I don't possess. But don't blame me that
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: I don't feel that way. That's up to them, not me.
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: Last thing, VIC On any given night, I see some
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: guys having terrific nights, and you can win a game.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: Mostly I see a lack of connectivity on the floor.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: I see like a confidence.
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's confidence in connectivity. It's it's what seemingly all about.
• 46:27
  Speaker 2: You're pronouncing this fix that guys are not connected. Connectivity
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: not connectivity.
• 46:33
  Speaker 5: Fix it?
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: Did I say connectivity?
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: Connectivity?
• 46:41
  Speaker 5: Biopic? It sounds like you're trying to say, there's some
• 46:47
  Speaker 5: con activity going on right now.
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: Connectivity again, connective down to time and place. I would
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: have told you after beating the Lakers, Okay, and I
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: don't want to hear this either. Here's another one. Back
• 46:58
  Speaker 1: to back. The Nuggets the best back to back records
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: in all of basketball. I'm going to remind you right
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: now that the Denver Nuggets went to Portland on the
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: second game of a back to back and put what
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty five on them?
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: What?
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, so don't tell me it's a back to back
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: and they're tired. I don't want to hear the excuses.
• 47:18
  Speaker 5: No, I agree, and we'll get back to this in
• 47:19
  Speaker 5: a little bit three oh three, five oh four oh
• 47:21
  Speaker 5: nine two five back after this
• 47:23
