We're going to be looking at Aaron Judge and saying that you
0:16
can't win the big game, Michael Jordan said.
0:19

3:24
Western Conference Finals tied 1 to 1.
3:26
The Spurs and the Thunder tied one to one in their Western
3:30
Conference Finals matchup. After the Spurs won game one,
3:33
the Thunder won Game 2. The Spurs won game one in
3:36
overtime, led by Webbing Yama well that had 41 points in 24
3:39
rebounds. He became the first player with
3:42
a 40 and 20 game in the NBA playoffs since Shaquille Neil
3:46
and the youngest player ever to record that stat line.
3:49
The Spurs also contained NBA and VP Shay Gilchrist Alexander,
3:54
holding him to just 7 for 23 shooting in that game.
3:59
The Thunder bounce back in game number 2122 to 113, led by SGA
4:04
scoring 30 points on 12 for 24 shooting and six other Thunder
4:11
players scored in double digits. Isaiah Harnstein stepped up big
4:15
after struggling in game one, finishing with a double double
4:18
and holding Wemby to just four points in four in the fourth
4:22
quarter. When he was primary, he was a
4:25
primary defender. Jalen Williams left the game in
4:29
the first quarter with hamstring tightness and did not return,
4:33
and D Aaron Fox has also yet to play in the series as he
4:37
recovers from an ankle injury. Both players Game 3 statuses are
4:43
still unknown. I will say this, this series is
4:46
going seven games. I expect this series to go all
4:49
the way to the grind of the 7th game And and and and obviously
4:55
we all know OK C has homecourt advantage.
4:57
They were the best team in the NBA webbing.
5:00
Yama is the best player in this series.
5:02
He is the best player in the series.
5:03
As good as Shay is, Wemby does everything for his team,
5:07
Everything for his team. He's a defender, he's a
5:10
rebounder, he's a passer, he's a shooter.
5:12
He could play point center. We he's one of the best ball
5:15
handler, ball handlers in this series.
5:18
Everything Webbie Yama does for his team, and we saw it in game
5:21
#2 Webbie Yama was not on like he was in game #1 because they,
5:26
they sat him a lot in the first half.
5:29
They they really gave the ball to Castle.
5:32
Castle was running the offense when he wasn't in and, and
5:35
Castle's a good player. Some of the, the baskets that he
5:38
made and some of the dunks that he made were fun, electrifying.
5:41
He's a good young player. It was a great fine by OK C
5:45
Dylan Harper going down is a significant loss, a significant
5:49
loss. And Dylan Harper, what we're
5:51
hearing about his hamstring is he might be out a significant
5:55
amount of time. So if Dylan Harper doesn't come
5:57
back, you're going to have to get more from the secondary
6:01
players when Benyama is going to have to play even harder.
6:04
Shay Shay is is a great player. We all know he can take over a
6:07
game. He's an offensive phenomenon.
6:10
He is as good of a offensive option in the NBA.
6:13
Here's the problem, when Shay is not playing at a high level, his
6:17
team does not get enough secondary offense.
6:20
We saw that in game #1 and if Jalen Williams is not healthy,
6:24
which he has not been, even last year, he was on and off.
6:27
He couldn't stay healthy. He played a big factor in the in
6:31
the championship games against Indiana, but it really was Hal
6:35
Burton versus Shay. And that's what it was.
6:38
It's different now and the Western Conference, and you can
6:40
see it in his face after game #1 Shay was not happy.
6:44
He spoke to the media. He really had no answer about
6:46
webbing Yama when he was trying, when the media was asking how do
6:49
you stop this guy? How do you stop this guy?
6:51
He's almost impossible to stop. He's 7 foot five.
6:54
He can move as fast as a point guard.
6:56
He can dribble just like a point guard.
6:58
He can shoot like a shooting guard.
7:00
The guy's almost impossible to defend.
7:02
And if he gets into the paint, he doesn't even have to jump.
7:05
He just has to let the ball go, hook shot whatever he needs to
7:08
do, bank it off the boards. He is an amazing player.
7:11
He's a great player. The only thing that worries me
7:13
about webbing Yama in his career is is the blood clots and
7:17
injury. We've seen a lot of big men in
7:19
this league as they get older, their ankles go, they feet go.
7:23
There's a lot of torque on their feet and their toes.
7:25
We've seen it and we can go back in time of some of the the, the
7:29
different things and different injuries we've seen with toes
7:31
and and feet. That's what worries me, worries
7:34
me about webbing Yama. Now, Kendrick Perkins said
7:36
something very, very interesting, which I completely
7:39
disagree. He was on a show on ESPN and I
7:44
popped it on and they were talking about LeBron James, what
7:47
LeBron James has done in the last 20 years and what Michael
7:50
Jordan did and Kobe Bryant. And he put LeBron and Michael
7:54
Jordan as the 2 greatest basketball players of all the
7:56
time. He said that in 20 years we're
7:59
going to put webbing Yama in that same conversation.
8:03
And the reason why I would disagree with him is not because
8:05
webbing Yama isn't special, that he's not great.
8:08
He's a big man. And I'm not going to compare a
8:11
big man and it's good. And I'll say this, LeBron James
8:14
is not the same guard position as Michael Jordan with their
8:17
different positions, Lebrons more of a three than he is of a
8:22
two or one. All right, so we all understand
8:24
it's more like a Magic Johnson. But when you're comparing and
8:26
contrasting talented players if their generation, Webbing Yaman
8:31
might not even be the best player of his generation.
8:34
We don't know what he's going to be.
8:35
So Kendrick Perkins saying right now at the age of 2122 that
8:39
webbing Yama is going to be considered Michael Jordan and
8:42
LeBron James is ludicrous. It's crazy to say something like
8:45
that. It doesn't mean that he can't be
8:47
that. And I'm not saying it to all the
8:49
fans that webbing Yama can't be one of the great players of our
8:53
generation. But here's the here's the crazy
8:55
thing. When we watch the big men in the
8:58
90s and the 80s, OK, there were a lot of good ones.
9:01
Robert Parish was a great big man, OK, he was great.
9:04
Kareem Abdul Jabbar was a great big man, athletically gifted,
9:08
one of the best scorers we've ever seen.
9:10
And then we go into the 90s. Come on, guys.
9:13
We had Patrick Ewig, we've had David Robertson, Hakeem
9:18
Olajuwon, Shaquille O'Neal, Tim Duncan.
9:21
We could go on and on and on to the bigs.
9:23
Now it's different. Obviously they're more athletic.
9:27
There's a it's a completely different style of basketball
9:30
game. We understand that and webbing.
9:32
Yama is the new charge of big man in the NBA.
9:35
The the turn off here when it comes to this series is we're
9:39
watching two of the best young players in the NBA.
9:41
They're great, they're great to watch.
9:43
We're watching you can argue probably the top three-point
9:46
guard in the league. He was two time MVPI disagree
9:49
with it as everybody knows my argument, but he is a two time
9:52
MVP back-to-back years and you look at webbing Yama, he hasn't
9:56
won a championship, but he's defensive player of the year.
9:58
So we know what he can do on the basketball court offensively and
10:01
defensively. When I look at these teams, OK C
10:04
was a better team than they were last year.
10:07
They were a much better team than they were last year.
10:09
And the reason why is obviously with the team, the injuries and
10:13
and the probe of the team, that doesn't mean that OK C can't win
10:16
back-to-back championships. Golden State did it, the Chicago
10:20
Bulls did it. Teams could do that.
10:23
But here's the thing. When you look at Golden State,
10:25
when they did it, when you look at the talent that Golden State
10:28
had, you're looking at Kevin Durant, you're looking at Steph
10:33
Curry, you're looking at Klay Thompson at the top of his game
10:38
and Draymond Green. These guys are all Hall of
10:41
farmers. If you look at this team right
10:43
now, you're looking at Caruso. Caruso's having a great series.
10:46
I'm not taking away this guy was a second round draft pick.
10:49
The LA Lakers decided to pass on him.
10:52
OK, Is he having a great series? Is he a great defensive player,
10:56
two way player? He's good.
10:57
He's good. He's a good player.
10:59
Is he an elite player? No.
11:00
He's not going to average 30 points a game every single game
11:04
of this series and anybody that thinks that way is an idiot.
11:07
Anybody that thinks that way is a complete moron because he is
11:12
not that type of player. He's a two way player, second
11:15
round draft pick who can play 2 dimensional basketball, but he's
11:18
more of a six man off the bench. You're not going to get that
11:21
kind of offense. What because Jalen Williams is
11:23
hurt. It's amazing what he's doing
11:25
right now and I got to give the coaching staff a lot of credit
11:29
with OKC. But if OKC thinks that if they
11:33
get through this series, and if it is the Knicks or even if it's
11:35
the Cavaliers, it's probably not going to be the Cavaliers
11:38
because we know the depth that they have.
11:39
But let's say it's the Knicks. I'm not going to jinx them, but
11:42
let's say it's the Knicks. What we have seen with OK C over
11:46
the last two seasons is growth and, and, and they've stayed
11:50
healthy, fairly healthy throughout the playoffs.
11:54
They're not healthy right now and the Spurs are not healthy
11:57
right now. Dylan Harper, That's a massive
12:00
loss. You could say whatever and stop
12:02
with the Aaron Fox. The Aaron Fox hasn't played in a
12:05
series in the last two of them. He played a what?
12:08
What? The first the first game in the
12:10
last series or the second? Game he got hurt in game five
12:12
he. Didn't play a lot and now he's
12:15
going to. They're saying he might not be
12:17
back next game. He might miss another game after
12:19
this. Darren Fox not has.
12:21
It's not just two ankle, it's not just one ankle.
12:24
It's two ankles, his left and his right ankle.
12:27
It hurt. If you watched him play when he
12:29
was playing, he was wearing 2 ankle braces on both legs.
12:34
So what does that tell you? This guy is his game is
12:38
practically going to the hole, doing his doing, going to the
12:41
hole, drawing fouls and being that that that point guard
12:45
option. Now you lose him, and you lose
12:47
the Who's the point guard Who's playing point webbing Yama?
12:51
Is that what you're going to bet on?
12:52
Webbing Yama Castle? Castle's not a point guard.
12:55
He's a three. Player You asked who's playing,
12:57
you didn't say who's the. Point who's gonna have to either
13:00
move? Kelvin Johnson probably, or the
13:02
other kid McLaughlin that was getting time.
13:04
You're going to sell me that. If you think you're going to
13:05
sell me that, you're out of your damn mind because.
13:07
I'm trying to sell you that you don't never believe anything I.
13:10
Say no. I do believe for some of the
13:12
things you say, some of the stuff you say is bogus and
13:14
absolutely crazy. But that's.
13:15
What I love about you, right that's.
13:16
No, no, no, you're just out of your damn freaking.
13:18
Mind. That's what I love about you.
13:20
But I the fact here is I look at the OKC Thunder and I look at
13:25
the Spurs, if they were at full strength, yeah, I I mean, it's
13:28
going to be hard for a team like the Knicks to play them.
13:30
They're not going to be a full strength.
13:32
Even if Dylan Harper comes back, even if Jalen Williams comes
13:35
back, they're not going to be 100%.
13:37
They're not. So I, I, there's an advantage
13:40
here. When you look at the Eastern
13:42
Conference, when you look at both conferences, you say, Oh my
13:45
God, the Western Conference, the top four teams are way better
13:47
than the top four teams in the Eastern Conference.
13:50
But when it comes to injury and you come to depth and you look
13:53
at what the Knicks are doing right now and pretty much all
13:56
the guys coming off the bench and we're getting consistency
14:00
from the bench. That's the that's a championship
14:03
way of winning. Think about it, OK, C won their
14:06
first championship last year. Why?
14:09
Because they're depth off the bench.
14:10
Caruso coming off the bench, their depth.
14:12
And if you remember the Nuggets when they won the championship,
14:14
why did the Nuggets win the championship?
14:17
Brown, the depth, he was the 6th man of the year.
14:19
The depth off the bench, Aaron getting, getting Aaron and all
14:23
the different players that they had, it was depth winning
14:26
championships. It's all about the bench.
14:28
It's all about the depth and the Knicks have it.
14:31
OKC really doesn't have it right now and either does the Spurs.
14:34
And that to me, you can make all the faces you want.
14:36
When you look at the injuries, you have two of your best
14:39
players, two of your best point guards sitting on the bench
14:42
right now and could be out a significant.
14:44
Amount of time as a starter? You said a bitch.
14:45
What? Are you?
14:46
What are you talking about? What are you?
14:47
Talking Williams is a starter. You said a bitch.
14:49
I'm talking about their bench. What guys like Caruso coming off
14:52
the bench, Caruso starting right now, and even with that, they're
14:55
not getting enough off their bench.
14:57
And that's going to be a problem when they play teams like the
14:59
Knicks that are gunning right now.
15:01
If you look who has the best bench in the playoffs right now,
15:03
it's the Knicks. OK, see.
15:05
The Knicks. Been proven it's been proven we.
15:07
The Knicks have the best. The Knicks have the best bench
15:10
right now in the playoffs. They're getting more from more
15:13
optional players than any team in the playoffs.
15:16
They're getting they're getting blocks from guys like Mitchell
15:19
Robertson. They're getting guys like
15:22
Chimet. He's coming on the he's scoring
15:24
points, he's playing defense against.
15:25
And you, the problem with you 2 is you look at offense, you're
15:28
not looking at the defensive side of the ball too.
15:30
No, I do. I look at both sides.
15:31
Well, the both. Sides, that's how I was able to
15:33
call you out on your BS about Donovan.
15:35
Mitchell Donovan Mitchell still a top five defensive player at.
15:38
His because I look at both sides.
15:39
You can say whatever you want, you can go look up and numbers
15:41
are all you want. I watch the games.
15:43
Dude, I don't know what else. You watch the games, I don't
15:46
watch the games. I don't know what else to do.
15:47
Dude, you can look up whatever you want.
15:48
I'm not looking it up. I'm telling you what I watch.
15:51
Donovan Mitchell is one of the best at his position.
15:54
Defensively. You could say whatever you yeah.
15:56
It could be. I think, I think what I'm seeing
15:58
in the Western Conference final right now is OK, C is every,
16:03
every clip that you're seeing of Wemby scoring, it's not Chet or
16:07
Hartenstein on him. It's Lou Dort trying to guard,
16:10
trying to guard him. And you're talking about A7.
16:12
How tall is HE75 on 6869 Lou Dort?
16:16
I mean, he's not even that big. He's 6-7, Yeah.
16:18
He's a good defender, but not for Wemby.
16:22
I said Dort's. A good defender, but not for
16:23
Wembley. Yeah, and that's, and you keep
16:26
seeing it. It's like I, I think they're
16:28
like, they're like, oh, if he doesn't give, he doesn't score
16:30
40, we'll be OK. You know, if we can limit him to
16:33
like 30, we'll be OK because there's not enough scoring to go
16:37
around. And they're like living with the
16:39
SGA, Like it's, it's just like a battle of wills, right?
16:43
But I, I think I don't like to go too far ahead.
16:46
You know, I think the Knicks are going to be in the Finals, but I
16:49
think what the difference is is the length and athleticism of
16:51
Cat and the and the weight. Cat is a big, heavy guy.
16:56
He's not going to get pushed around by Web and Yana.
17:01
It doesn't matter though, he's still outweighs.
17:03
I don't know if you watch it whim be a dunking old people.
17:06
Yeah. He turned the rim off.
17:08
He's not. He's. 220 lbs Seven.
17:11
Five. Correct.
17:12
But he's dunking it. That's what I'm saying.
17:13
He's 75, he's dunking it. He's got blue.
17:16
Dork on him. That's what I'm saying.
17:17
He's got blue dork on him. Hornstein.
17:19
Even last night he gave the Hornstein 20.
17:21
One weighs a. 190 lbs Who? Chet Holmgren.
17:26
Yeah, but I'm just but but cat ain't nobody that's gonna bang,
17:29
is what I'm trying. To Mitchell Robertson is when
17:31
Mitchell Robertson. Is one of the ones that go to
17:34
Mitchell Robertson is where he gonna give your offense.
17:37
He doesn't have. To.
17:39
You have OG, what the Knicks did.
17:41
What the Knicks did in the Cup Finals was very simple.
17:44
What they did was they closed up corners with OG and Anobi.
17:48
And that's why guys like webbing.
17:49
Yama couldn't get inside 'cause he was pushing him around.
17:52
And then when he got inside, you had a guy like Mitchell Robinson
17:54
standing there and saying, go ahead, don't go on me, baby,
17:56
It's not going to happen. He's going to stand there,
17:59
Mitch. Robinson, Mitch, Rob.
18:00
No, he wasn't. Mitchell Robinson completely
18:02
dominated that one. I don't go back to Emory's cup.
18:05
That one get going back to the Week 7 of the season.
18:09
That's not me, OK? I'm doing it real time.
18:13
You think Mr. Robinson is fit to be the Grim Reaper, The Victor
18:16
Ribeana? You're sad.
18:18
Speedy, what was the statistics that you brought?
18:22
This is. What you're discrediting to the
18:26
wingspan, the length of the wings of the Knicks OG has
18:30
there's. Nobody.
18:31
There's nobody that has. Wingspan, huh?
18:34
There's nobody in the league that has a wingspan that could
18:36
stop Windy. Yeah, All they got to do is
18:39
throw it up there. There's nobody that's going to
18:40
do it. So the best thing for them to do
18:42
is to use their weight and push them out of the paint and make
18:46
it difficult and give them hard fouls.
18:48
That's the only way. You have a bunch of young
18:50
players on the Spurs. You look at the Spurs right now,
18:53
they're one of the youngest teams in the NBA.
18:55
And you have a veteran team like the Knicks.
18:57
They're big, they're built. You have OG Ananobi that's built
19:00
like a rock that got you. It's very hard to push them.
19:02
You have Mitchell Harton. No, he's not.
19:04
He's 100%. He's 100% healthy now, buddy.
19:08
Yeah. But I'm just saying he's a 20
19:16
point guy. You gave me 13.
19:17
He's not all the way. There and he's a shutdown
19:19
defender. He's a shutdown defender.
19:21
Right now, not with that. And he went for that.
19:22
When he went for that dunk, I knew he wasn't hurt.
19:24
Happy with the duck? He got.
19:26
Fouled you hate you hate that happen you really don't like.
19:32
They called it, but I would say they called it but I wouldn't
19:36
say you got 5. Come on.
19:39
Oh, I'm I'm fan OG. I look at OG as I look at Mobley
19:44
for the Cavs, like if OG don't show up for the Knicks, then the
19:46
Knicks ain't going nowhere and then OB don't show up for the
19:49
Cavs. He they're not going well.
19:50
That's I look at it the same way the.
19:52
Difference is you need Mobley to score 25 to 30 points to win the
19:56
game. You don't need OG.
19:57
You need OG to score 15 points. 15 to 20.
20:00
Because you don't know. What's going on?
20:01
Not if Mikkel Bridges are scoring. 18 and 6 L.
20:05
Bridges scoring 23. We're fine.
20:07
We stay in the West, we can come back to that, but we're staying
20:10
the West, man. No, but right now if you look at
20:13
the West, it's both teams are injured, they're injury prone
20:16
and that's why I think it's going 7 Series, seven games
20:19
because both teams are going to be limping to the finish line.
20:22
SGA is great, Whamby is great, but it's the secondary players
20:26
that going to have to show up in the second-half of the game.
20:29
Castle is a young, young player. He's got phenomenal talent and
20:32
we've seen what the Spurs have done in the past, what, you
20:35
know, believe and all the different guys that they had
20:37
playing around, Tim Duncan, Hall of Fame players, Kawhi Leonard,
20:40
all these guys. But Tony Parker, when you look
20:42
at this team, they don't have those options.
20:45
They don't have those, those, those optional guys that are
20:48
going to take over games. Dylan Harper's a good player.
20:51
He's a good player. He's a young player.
20:53
They don't have that other guy. If Webanyame is not having a
20:56
good game, well, we're going to have Castle take over the game
20:59
or we're going to have D Aaron Fox.
21:00
D Aaron Fox was given up. The Sacramento kids gave up on
21:04
him. They gave up on him.
21:06
They traded him. They didn't think he was any
21:08
good. He's overpaid.
21:09
They're going to get rid of him in the offseason.
21:11
They can't hold on to him. So.
21:13
Castle can take over a game, so I don't know what she's.
21:15
Like I think the best case scenario Mario as a Homer Knicks
21:18
fan is for, I'm talking about in San Antonio to go to 6-7 games
21:23
and it'd be an absolute war and the Knicks don't play with their
21:27
food and get rid of the Cavs in. 5 And I'm not even talking I'm
21:30
Dicky. I'm not even talking about the
21:31
Knicks. Now I'm trying to move away from
21:33
the Knicks because I'm looking at both teams and I I love the
21:36
coaching. They're 2 great young coaches.
21:38
They've proven themselves. One of them won a championship.
21:41
The other one, it was picked by Gregg Popovich to take over this
21:44
organization and be the guy it. It's great to watch what these
21:47
two young coaches and they're going to be OK C and the Spurs,
21:51
We're going to see this a lot in the Western Conference Finals.
21:54
These guys are the future of the West.
21:56
But when I look at all the way the when you look at the NBA and
22:00
you look at the contracts and salaries and all that other
22:02
stuff, all these guys are not going to be able to be saved on
22:05
these teams in these organizations.
22:07
It's just not going to work. I will say this about OK C.
22:10
They know how to relink, relinquish draft picks.
22:12
They got two first round draft picks this year.
22:14
They can move up on a player if they if, if need be.
22:17
Hahnstein's not going to be back next year.
22:19
But Isaiah Hahnstein can't stay healthy.
22:21
He's never 100% healthy. As a Knick fan, a lot of people
22:24
were questioning why didn't the Knicks give him an extension?
22:26
Why didn't they extend him? They offered it to him.
22:28
He decided to take a little bit more money and go to OKC.
22:31
Did he make the wrong decision? No.
22:32
He won a championship. But when you look at Hahnstein
22:35
in his career now, OKC is going to be looking at him and saying,
22:39
you know what, we don't need him.
22:41
We can, we can go and draft a, a big man from Michigan or whoever
22:44
they want to go mar or anybody. They can go and to the draft and
22:47
they can say, OK, we're going to go with this guy.
22:49
We we'll, we'll, we'll ride or die with him or and, and, and to
22:52
me, when I look at the Spurs, I I as good as the Spurs look and
22:57
they have so much talent. The Spurs got lucky with webbing
23:00
Yama. They're not going to get top
23:02
first round draft picks anymore. It's not going to happen.
23:05
This is a team that's going to have to find players in the
23:07
later rounds like the Knicks have done, like OKC has done.
23:10
Look at OKC's team. They've got, I think if I'm not
23:13
mistaken in their lineup they've got 3 or 4 guys that are second
23:16
round draft picks. Some undrafted so.
23:18
And some undrafted. I mean, you got to really find
23:21
these guys and to me, I, the Spurs haven't proven that to me.
23:25
They haven't shown me that they they can find guys outside of
23:28
the first round. Dylan Harper's a top three pick,
23:32
Castle's a top four pick. That's what you're looking at.
23:35
Wenby Yamas a top, top pick. Those are three guys that were
23:39
top three picks. So if you can't find the guys in
23:42
the later rounds, good luck. And that's why I look at the
23:44
Spurs and there's a lot of questions With the Spurs, their
23:47
ownership is great. Their GM has been there for how
23:49
long? I think he's been there for like
23:51
30 years. He's been there with Greg
23:53
Popovich. He's done such a great job.
23:55
We've seen Sean Marks go to the Nets and absolutely screw
23:57
everything up. It seems like all these
23:59
executives that leave the Spurs can't do anything on other
24:02
organizations. One went to the Pelicans, the
24:03
other one went to the Grizzlies, the other one went to Miami.
24:06
They they they all go everywhere and they don't do anything but
24:10
what we've seen. Think they were Becky.
24:11
Yeah. How about great Popovich?
24:14
Great Popovich is tree. Everybody looks at Mike Brown.
24:16
They look at Steve Kerr. They look at all their trees.
24:19
There are trees that stick up. But look at where Mike Brown
24:22
has. What Mike Brown has done in the
24:24
years that he has become an assistant coach in the NBA.
24:28
He took over Sacramento. He had one good season.
24:30
He was coach of the year. He was unbelievable, but he
24:32
couldn't get along with any young players.
24:34
He got fired. He he was let go with the
24:36
Cavaliers after LeBron James left or what LeBron James's time
24:41
over there was gone. Mike Brown was let go.
24:43
Mike Brown decide they they decided to part ways with Mike
24:46
Brown. Mike Brown is hopped from one
24:48
team to another and a lot of people believe because he can't
24:51
handle the youth on some organizations and teams.
24:54
But what we've seen with Mike Brown this year is he has worked
24:58
the young players, He has looked at the young players and used
25:01
them as assets. And that to me, coaching is
25:04
probably the least important thing with the NBA.
25:07
I've said that. I've argued that because you
25:09
look at you look at all the other sports just.
25:11
Bigged up two coaches that didn't follow.
25:13
Up I am going to say that because because the NBA is all
25:16
about stars. The NBA is all about stars.
25:19
Get out of here. It's true.
25:20
It it's it's 100. Percent you don't watch the game
25:22
because you can tell. Really.
25:23
I don't watch the game. I don't think any of the four
25:25
coaches left in the playoffs you could say are coaches.
25:28
They're good coaches. Okay.
25:29
They're going to be elite. They're good, but they got a
25:31
system, they got, they got a game plan.
25:35
What you say? Atkinson He blew it by not using
25:38
his timeouts in the in the second-half.
25:41
Yeah, but I'm talking about. Yeah, but I.
25:43
Don't know, so just coaches. Being very important in that
25:45
game. Correct.
25:48
Well, you look at the West and both of them are just killing it
25:50
on both sides. Like you seen it.
25:51
This is the reason why it's a battle.
25:53
And then they just a high pick and roll who got the better
25:55
talent and everybody's school with your start scoring 50 and
25:58
60 and everybody was contributing 5 and 10.
26:01
That's that's the what I'm telling you.
26:03
Like there's actually offensive sets being ran, there's
26:05
strategic timeouts, there's strategic challenges.
26:08
Those different things, though, that's coaching.
26:10
That ain't Oh, I got a good start on my team and it's just
26:13
happening like no, you have. To be well.
26:15
Intentional about that. No cue, I think well, I think
26:18
Dagnos a good coach for OKC. I don't think he would be
26:21
magnified to this elite status. It wasn't for the Sam Presti
26:23
probably being the best executive in the NBA right now
26:26
and building up this team the way he has.
26:27
You were talking about the bench production that OKC has.
26:30
They have so many versatile guys that they could play and because
26:33
they had all those injury issues during the season, all those
26:36
guys can be trusted because of that, even when Jalen Williams
26:38
goes down, they have the amount of combined production to make
26:41
it work. And the one thing that I think
26:43
they do well is they know when to take guys out.
26:45
Dicky, you were mentioning that with the Knicks like taking
26:47
McBride out and putting in Sham and putting in those guys.
26:49
OK, He did a lot of the same thing.
26:51
Caisson Wallace at the at the three and the four position.
26:54
Jared McCain who they traded for the trade deadline making,
26:56
making those guys impact. That's why they had seven guys
26:59
that scored double figures in this game.
27:01
That's why I don't know if the Spurs have that to the same
27:03
level of position. Versatile guys to make up for
27:06
both Harper and Fox being down. And my attack, my attack to
27:10
coaching in the NBA is pretty simple.
27:13
I look at the NHL and I look at what they do as NHL coaches.
27:17
You need to be a coach. It's, it's completely different.
27:19
You need, there's no timeouts. Everything is run by the the
27:23
bench, defensive and offensively.
27:25
You see them calling, it's different and, and there's line
27:28
changes and everything automatically within 30 to 40
27:31
seconds in the playoffs. It's completely different.
27:33
And when you look at the NFL, it's all about coaching.
27:36
Say whatever you want. If you don't have any elite
27:37
coach, you're not winning a championship.
27:39
I'm sorry, you're not winning a championship If you don't have
27:42
an elite coach. Those coaches have to call they,
27:44
they have to put the, the right defensive and offensive
27:47
coordinators and special teams. And that guy is running the
27:50
whole team, 5453 players on that roster.
27:54
And then I look at baseball as as important as the manager is,
27:58
the manager is going to the executives, he's going to the
28:00
GM. They have all these analytics,
28:03
they're following analytics on the where they're making calls
28:07
and stuff like that. So the managers as much as
28:09
really it's the manager working the bullpen that's the most
28:11
important thing. If the manager knows how to work
28:14
his bullpen, keep his bullpen fresh, they're a good manager.
28:17
Consider a good manager. Tampa's why is Tampa winning
28:20
right now? Why is Tampa right now ahead of
28:22
the Yankees by four games because of their bullpen?
28:25
He they, they have a coach that understands how to keep his
28:29
bullpen healthy and, and, and not pushing him out too much
28:32
where they're going to get worn down early.
28:34
And we'll see how it works in 162 games.
28:36
When I look at the NBA, it's all about stars.
28:39
It really is. You could say, yes, you have to
28:41
have a coach that's going to call plays, but honestly, if you
28:46
look at teams that have won championships in the past, not
28:49
necessarily needed great coaches.
28:51
I honest to God, All right, I'm going to tell you this right
28:54
now, you laughed. Let's go down the list.
28:56
Let's go down the list. Let's Debbie.
28:58
Miami. Miami.
28:59
Miami When LeBron James and Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh left,
29:02
how many championships did he win?
29:04
2. How many championships after
29:06
they left? How many championships did he
29:08
win? How many championships did he?
29:09
Win, and they win one with D Wade instead.
29:11
He did not win it. That was before.
29:13
And that wasn't. That was Pat Riley, by the way.
29:15
Yeah, that was Pat Riley. So how?
29:17
Many went to the finals once with the the COVID year.
29:20
Yeah, and they won the and they went the year after or a couple
29:22
years after too. But how many championships did
29:24
he win on? He won no championships without
29:26
D Wade, Chris Bosh and and LeBron James.
29:29
If you go back and you look at teams and you look at elite
29:32
players, you need the elite players to win championships,
29:35
not necessarily elite coaches. Now there are teams.
29:39
Phil Jackson, when you look at Michael Jordan, Michael Jordan
29:41
didn't win a championship until Scottie Pippen and Phil Jackson
29:44
came, came around. But how do we know that Michael
29:46
Jordan in the 90s couldn't, you know, trans train and send into
29:51
Michael Jordan like he did in the 90s without Phil Jackson?
29:54
We only, we don't know. We don't know.
29:56
We we don't know. We should say he did it.
29:59
What I'm saying here is when you look at teams, even the Celtics
30:03
in the 80s, and you look at their dominance and stuff like
30:06
that, they didn't have elite coaching.
30:09
They didn't have elite coaching when they won championships in
30:12
the 80s. They really didn't.
30:14
They had elite players. Robert Parish, Kevin Mccarroll,
30:18
Larry Bird, they, they had elite players.
30:22
Elite players win championships in the NBA.
30:25
That's a fact. It doesn't matter.
30:27
Steve Kerr. If Steve Kerr went to the New
30:29
York Knicks, he had a decision to go to Golden State or the New
30:31
York Knicks. If he went to the New York
30:33
Knicks, does he win championships?
30:34
With this team does. He win championships, Yeah.
30:36
No, I'm talking about right when he was going to the Knicks.
30:39
Does he win a championship with that New York Knick team when he
30:42
decided to go to Golden State? Yes or no?
30:44
I don't know who was on. It no, it doesn't matter.
30:46
He doesn't. He doesn't.
30:47
He decided to go to Golden State and take over Mark Jackson's
30:51
team because they had a young Steph Curry hit a young Klay
30:54
Thompson and he had a young Draymond Green.
30:56
He wasn't stupid, OK you. Didn't have Draymond yet.
30:59
Yeah, David. And it was, it would have been
31:01
Steph Curry team because coaches don't matter.
31:03
They did a Draymond Green, by the way.
31:05
When Draymond Green was the same draft as Clayton.
31:06
Yes, he was there. Draymond Green was there second
31:08
round. So the fact here is I and my
31:12
argument here is not that you you can't win with great
31:16
coaching. You don't need great coaching to
31:19
win an NBA championship. You need great players.
31:23
That's my argument. It doesn't mean you don't need.
31:25
A So so why was LeBron and Chris Barson, Dwyane Wade missed
31:30
those, what, three years? They didn't they didn't win the
31:32
championship? Why was that?
31:33
What? Do you mean they didn't win
31:34
championships? When they lost to the Spurs and
31:36
they lost The Mavericks, when they who, why they?
31:39
They were in the finals. They were in the.
31:41
Final obviously was a better team.
31:42
They were in the finals. No, they weren't.
31:44
No dude, there was no team better than Chris boss Dwyane
31:48
Wade in the 1st. Year in the 1st.
31:50
There was no team but. Why?
31:52
And Tim Duncan wasn't. Better than that key team and.
31:56
Everybody and the Heat, when they won, when they lost against
31:59
the Dallas Mavericks, that's what that was their first year
32:01
together as a team and Dallas talent.
32:04
And they had, they had honestly, in that series, the way Dirk
32:08
Nowitzki was playing, he was the best player in that series.
32:11
He was. He was the best.
32:13
Nobody in the even dirt he was. He would never say he was the.
32:16
Jerk was the best player in. That better?
32:19
He was not the better. He was the better.
32:23
Player. He was in that series.
32:27
He was the better player. He was he.
32:29
I'll play them. What you have to say it cuz it
32:33
ain't athleticism. It's not.
32:35
What I'm talking? About a system it had to be ran.
32:41
That's how it was 1 and if you go back and you actually listen
32:43
to the players that was on that team, there was strategies,
32:47
there was game plans that ended up benefiting them and winner
32:50
that game, right? Like Le Bron can only score
32:53
certain on a certain percentage on a certain part of the floor.
32:56
That is a part of the coaching. That is a game plan, which is.
33:00
So let's get it straight, Let's get it straight, Let's get it
33:03
straight because Kyrie Irving has been all over the place and
33:06
he said that Le Bron James was a great leader and I could I
33:09
couldn't imagine what what it was like being a leader when he
33:12
went to the Celtics. And he says now I could see what
33:15
leadership is. Le Bron James when he was on
33:17
those Cavalier teams, he was calling the offensive plays on
33:20
the basketball court, not the coach.
33:22
He was calling the off. What did they get him?
33:24
And what do you mean what he got him?
33:25
He got him to the finals with with nobody on the team when
33:28
Larry used as the second. Option who?
33:30
What was the East looking like far as talent wise?
33:32
Because everybody was in the world.
33:34
So what? Did the east So, so wait a
33:36
second. So now we're going to go through
33:37
the east. How about Detroit?
33:39
Did they beat? Detroit.
33:40
Did they beat Detroit? Did they beat the championship
33:42
Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference Finals?
33:44
They absolutely did. Do you remember that?
33:46
I remember it. I remember.
33:48
I heard on that Detroit team. Wallace played in that game, so
33:53
did Rick. RIP Prince.
33:56
They all played. Phillips still played in that
33:58
series. Yeah, they all played.
34:01
And it it doesn't matter who's hurt.
34:02
They were playing in those games and LeBron James took over those
34:05
games. Say whatever you want when
34:07
LeBron went to Miami. Harold makes an excellent point
34:11
about Dirk because Dirk had that.
34:12
Well, I'd like you to listen to it because I think it's pretty
34:15
good because this is a guy that you can't coach the one legged
34:19
fight fade away shot that he hit that no one else could hit in
34:22
the history of the NBA the way that.
34:24
He. Did you can't teach what he
34:26
does. Not the way that he did it and
34:29
not that year. He did it first though, I'm just
34:34
saying. Nobody can't do it.
34:36
You're you're not listening to the argument.
34:38
The argument is the guys in the NBA, Jason Kidd was the coach on
34:42
the floor for that team. Jason Kidd was making sure the
34:45
plays were being run. Jason Kidd is one of the is a
34:47
now unemployed coach, but he was a literally a third.
34:51
Highest paid coach, by the way. Third highest paid coach who's
34:54
unemployed. $40 million doesn't have to coach.
34:57
For doesn't have a pretty. Nice job for them, it's pretty.
34:59
Good, but. Well, you know what I mean.
35:00
Like I think, I think Errol's point, you know, compared to the
35:03
other sports, it's more about not all about, but more about
35:08
how talented the guys are playing together then what the
35:12
coaches can do for them. I think that's a decent argument
35:14
for. That, but it doesn't translate
35:15
to championships because when you look at it, what you guys
35:18
are saying, I'm not saying the. Leaders.
35:19
Championships, yeah, that's what I'm trying to tell him.
35:21
He said that the talent can get you a championship.
35:23
And what I'm trying to say is that if a guy's on the court and
35:26
he's leading, he understand basketball and he's able to put
35:29
guys positions to be successful. That doesn't mean that he's not
35:33
paying attention to the play caller, he's not paying
35:36
attention to the game plan. He didn't sit in the office
35:38
during the week and come up with a strategy to implement on the
35:42
game plan. So you can't disregard all that
35:45
preparation. You can't disregard all that
35:47
coaching for the sake of you had a good player that bought into
35:51
the system and asked the implemented.
35:53
Let me ask you. Questions go out there.
35:54
I got a question asking you, in the last 10 years, how many
35:57
coach changes have they been in each?
36:00
Who's had more coach transitions in each sport?
36:03
Because I'll tell you this, you can look this up the NBA,
36:06
because the NBA, you can transition more with coaches
36:09
than any other sports. We're not compete, we're not
36:11
comparing the. You don't need a great coach to
36:14
win a champion. Saying that coaching matter,
36:16
you're saying it. Doesn't.
36:16
I don't think it does. In the NBA, it doesn't.
36:19
You have it doesn't talent, it doesn't win a championship.
36:21
It doesn't you. Have nothing to prove that you
36:25
can come out here and just have the best talent and list.
36:27
We gave you LeBron James, a Duane in that era.
36:30
We've given you Janice was back-to-back MVP.
36:33
Let me ask you a question. Let.
36:34
Me ask you a question, I gave you one with Miami.
36:37
How many championships did Greg Popovich win when Tim Duncan and
36:41
Manu Julong Ginobili Kawhi later?
36:44
I'm just asking you how many championships?
36:46
Win on A5 Championship run. Yeah, when Tim Duncan retired,
36:53
when Tim Duncan retired, they didn't win nothing.
36:56
That's how great he was as a coach.
36:58
They didn't win nothing. They didn't win nothing.
37:01
Q They didn't win nothing. I'm talking.
37:03
About the system talent, Chicago with Jordan, they ran the
37:06
triangle. It's like anywhere else.
37:08
When you got to LA with Phil Jackson, he ran the triangle.
37:10
It's all this stuff plays a part of what I'm saying.
37:13
You don't. You keep thinking that people
37:15
can just roll the ball out and just make it to the
37:17
championship. You're nuts.
37:19
I I disagree with you. I completely disagree.
37:22
I. Completely disagree with.
37:24
You I completely disagree with you when I watch the NBAI think
37:27
it's all about talent. It's it really, it has nothing
37:30
to do with coaching in in sports.
37:32
I've said it, I played hockey, Hockey, you need a good coach.
37:35
If you look at all the teams that have won championships,
37:37
they're all great coaches, all great coaches, and you can see
37:40
why they're great coaches. If you look at the NFL, look at
37:44
the championship teams, I mean, you can't be blinded by that.
37:47
The reason why they won the championships is because they
37:49
got great coaching. Everybody says it's the
37:51
quarterback. It's all about coaching if you
37:53
look at some of these quarterbacks.
37:54
Without the quarterback. Well, I'm sorry.
37:56
Who's wrong without the quarterback?
37:58
Who's wrong without the? What are you?
37:59
Talking wrong without the quarterback.
38:01
I'm just saying I. Mean they're the Ravens have won
38:04
without a good quarterback. Tampa.
38:05
Tampa quarterback. Did he win MVP with that?
38:09
Year no the Trent Dilfer. Trent Dilfer in 2000.
38:13
Brad Johnson, Yeah. I mean, they weren't, they
38:16
weren't great quarterbacks. Yeah, I said.
38:18
Yeah, but I'm. Saying with that, all world, all
38:20
world. Defenses, I mean, correct, yeah,
38:22
that Ravens team, that defense was.
38:25
You can. You can.
38:26
Win. You can you can win
38:27
championships if you have great defense, you have a great
38:29
running game. We've argued this before and,
38:32
and we can go into that some other time, but I the, the fact
38:35
here is when you look at basketball, I just thinking of
38:39
all the sports, I look at coaching and I'm like, you can
38:43
win without great coaching. You can win with just great
38:46
talent around. And if you put the right guys
38:48
around and you have the right player that is running the
38:52
offense like a LeBron James, like a Michael Jordan, like a
38:55
Kobe Bryant, because I got news for everybody, everybody loves
38:59
Phil Jackson. Everybody loves Phil Jackson.
39:01
And this is not a shot at Phil Jackson.
39:03
Think he was a great coach. They win championships without
39:06
Phil Jackson. They do They win Shaquille
39:09
O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, especially when Kobe Bryant got his feet
39:12
wet. They win championships with Kobe
39:13
Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal 100% Lee do.
39:16
And if you look at if you can make Jeff so you want when
39:19
Scottie Pippen went there or his friend, yes I am.
39:22
When I look at when I look at Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen
39:26
and Dennis Rodman or Ron Harper and those guys, they're winning
39:31
a championship too. As good as Phil Jackson is,
39:34
they're going to win those championships as well.
39:36
It's called dominance. Hey, hey, will you wait this
39:39
what I want you to do. When you look at that timeout
39:41
and you see them bring that white board out and then putting
39:44
X's and O's up there, that's strategy, that's that's
39:48
coaching. That's what they're doing.
39:49
Then the players just go out there and implement it.
39:52
And that's the reason why, you know, I mean, that's the reason
39:54
why they're great because they it was actually in the system.
39:57
And this is the reason why I feel was able to go from Chicago
40:00
to LA and implement the same thing with Kobe and Shaq that he
40:03
did with Jordan and Pip. And he was what it is.
40:06
He was such a great coach that he wouldn't coach the Knicks.
40:09
Exactly. Another good point.
40:11
He knew it was a failure from the beginning.
40:12
He knew that was a bad team. There was no way he was going to
40:15
coach that team. No way.
40:17
No, instead he won't be able to coach college graduate Jr.
40:19
Smith. Instead, he goes to the combine
40:21
and falls asleep and picks Frank Nilikina.
40:23
Thank you very much. Eric, I learned from him.
40:25
Thank you. Very much and trade and trades
40:27
for Bargnani. Come on.
40:28
Thank you very much. Thank you very, very much.
40:31
Thank you, Phil, for all the stuff that you've done.
40:33
Right. Let's go to my deuce of the day.
40:35
Deuce of the day. You log, not a log.
40:38
I don't have a log, but I. All right, ladies and gentlemen.
40:48
Well, somebody's in trouble again.
40:49
And I don't think it's something that we could even imagine or
40:53
maybe we could. Rasheed Rice to be jailed for
40:56
probation violation, to miss OTAs and mini camp after knee
41:01
injury. Oh, my God, you guys are going
41:03
to love this one. Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver
41:05
Rasheed Rice is in custody by violating his probation and he
41:11
faces 30 days in jail time as a result.
41:14
Rice tested positive for THC according to the order of court
41:18
dated May 19th, was booked in Dallas, TX County Jail at 12:15
41:24
PM on Tuesday and will remain in custody until June 16th.
41:29
Ladies and gentlemen, Rashi Rice does it again.
41:32
This guy doesn't get into car accidents and leaves the scene
41:35
and then goes to a nightclub and gets into fistfights and gets
41:40
ripped apart and then gets caught by the police saying that
41:43
he doesn't know anything of anything behind the scenes.
41:46
It's very it's it's to me, it's just very filling that it
41:49
happens to only the Kansas City Chiefs.
41:51
It's been going on. If you go back at some of these
41:54
guys Tyree killed, remember him. Remember what he was doing.
41:57
There was a running back in Cream Hunt.
41:59
Remember him kicking and doing things to women.
42:02
It it seems like. And I I got to give a shout out
42:04
to Andy Reid. I think Andy Reid is a great
42:05
coach. Andy Reid's gone through a lot
42:07
of of things in his past, his son drowning and dying,
42:11
committing suicide. Some people believe all these
42:14
different things that Andy Reid is done and and his success not
42:17
only with the Philadelphia Philadelphia Eagles and he
42:20
didn't win a championship there, but he took his team 2
42:23
championships and lose against Bill Belichick and the Patriots.
42:25
But but then winning multiple championships with Patrick
42:29
Mahomes, drafting Patrick Mahomes, rebuilding this
42:31
organization from top to bottom. It's a great story.
42:33
But when you look at these guys like Rashid Rice, who thinks he
42:37
can get a away with murder, he does whatever he wants.
42:39
He almost killed people in a car, left the scene fighting
42:43
with people because of a friggin woman in, you know, in a in a
42:47
nightclub. And then all of a sudden he
42:49
knows that he has to stay away from drugs, stay away from
42:53
things that his probation would get him into trouble.
42:55
This guy is smoking marijuana. It's it's really pathetic.
42:59
And and I blame Andy Reid, I blame the coaching staff over
43:03
there because they don't not know how to control their
43:06
players. And this is a horrible story
43:08
because it just shows you once is Andy Reed Sugar is Andy Reed
43:12
did. You read my messages, my
43:13
crashing. Is that was Fish, by the way.
43:17
I just muted him. Andy Reed does not know how to
43:21
control his players, which tells me right now as an organization,
43:24
when is it going to be enough? When is Andy Reid going to
43:27
decide that this guy is not fit to be on this roster?
43:31
And, and to me, he's such an important player to this
43:34
offense. They're not going to get rid of
43:35
him and he is going to be here for the long haul.
43:37
And it's just horrible. It really is.
43:39
And that's why this is the deuce of the day, because it's
43:41
absolute garbage. It's absolute garbage.
43:43
There should be no reason why this guy is still on the roster
43:46
right now with the Kansas City Chiefs.
43:48
And it just shows you that this organization has no control over
43:52
players. So that's my deuce of the day.
43:53
It's horrible. And I'm I'm interested to see
43:56
for all your fans out there what Kansas City is going to do to
44:00
him and what the NFL is going to do with him because they
44:02
suspended him. He wasn't suspended for a long
44:05
time. And it seems like this guy gets
44:08
away with murder. He gets away with everything.
44:10
I know it's just THC, but why can't you just follow no
44:12
directions, stay away from getting into trouble?
44:15
Why can't you just follow what the team is telling you?
44:19
It just it's pathetic, absolutely pathetic.
44:21
Could you imagine if they brought Tyree kill back?
44:23
Oh God, could you imagine that they that guy can't control
44:26
himself over there in Miami. Now you're going to bring him
44:29
back and he's going to be coaching this guy or helping
44:31
this guy develop. Good luck.
44:33
Maybe. They should bring back our
44:34
friend Bashar Breland. Too.
44:35
Good. Luck Bashar Breland, that guy.
44:38
He was a real winner when he came on the show.
44:40
By the way, I I wonder what Bashar doing right now?
44:43
I mean, and hopefully not, what did he have a bazooka or an Uzi?
44:47
Yeah, some kind of hunting. Rifle, hunting rifle.
44:50
I mean, he was a machine gun. He, he got caught with like a, a
44:55
fully loaded machine gun in the back of his trunk.
44:57
I mean, the guy's out of his mind too.
44:59
But I, I like Rashard. I hope everything's going well
45:01
with Rashard. Brilliant.
45:02
He's a nice kid and hopefully he's doing well.
45:05
He did went he he did play in the Super.
45:06
Bowl Yeah, he played very well in that Super Bowl, too.
45:08
Yeah, so my heart goes out to him and his family.
45:12
All right? That's that's the deuce of the
45:13
day when we come back. I, it's just pathetic, man.
45:16
I, I don't, I don't get it. I don't.
45:18
And the NFL just loves to protect the Kansas City Chiefs.
45:21
They love to protect them. They protect them all the time.
45:25
I I don't get it. And, and again, going into a
45:28
season, Patrick Mahomes is coming back with a knee injury
45:31
and they got Justin Fields. Good luck on that one.
45:34
It's going to be very interesting to see.
45:36
Interesting to see. Oh, and this is Chavez Kelsey's
45:38
last year. He just got himself $12 million.
45:40
Oh, yeah. Wonderful.
