0:44
Speaker 2: Pod, our number one NBA Finals, it was supposed to
0:48
Speaker 2: end and it didn't.
0:50
Speaker 1: Game six. Does this performance or.
0:53
Speaker 2: Lack thereof qualify as a choke by Shay Jogis Alexander
0:58
Speaker 2: and the Thunder? Also, where is the finger of blame
1:02
Speaker 2: and shame pointed at for Okac and who's got the
1:07
Speaker 2: edge heading into a Game seven on Sunday night between
1:11
Speaker 2: the Pacers.
1:11
Speaker 1: And the Thunder.
1:12
Speaker 2: The answer is likely going to surprise you. You'll find
1:16
Speaker 2: out that answer right now. Queue up the band, sparks
1:21
Speaker 2: are about to fly. It's our number one. It was
1:27
Speaker 2: a big night, and it was a silent night, not
1:30
Speaker 2: what you were hoping for.
1:32
Speaker 1: If you're a fan of a certain basketball team.
1:34
Speaker 2: Welcome in the beginning of another night of the Ben
1:40
Speaker 2: Malor Show.
1:41
Speaker 1: We are in the air every.
1:44
Speaker 2: Whares we come out so winging like a Dodger manager,
1:49
Speaker 2: and we are the ultimate enhancer of audio unless we're
1:53
Speaker 2: not coast to coast, border to border and beyond on
1:57
Speaker 2: the vast and pleasantly powerful microphones of FSR and mandating
2:03
Speaker 2: live from the fetti as in the confetti that wasn't
2:07
Speaker 2: coming down from the rafters as we're hanging out here
2:11
Speaker 2: from the Fox Sports Radio studios as approved by Viva
2:16
Speaker 2: Los Vicki. And hoo's your Bill, who is likely hammered
2:20
Speaker 2: right now, and he'll send us a bunch of offensive
2:23
Speaker 2: comments on the social media page because the phones are
2:26
Speaker 2: still left up. And then somewhere in Oklahoma City, Kyrie,
2:29
Speaker 2: our buddy Kyrie, is all bummed out. He's all bummed out.
2:33
Speaker 2: We'll get to that in a minute. I was gonna
2:34
Speaker 2: start with the Dodgers. We're getting covered up on our
2:36
Speaker 2: LA affiliate right now by Dodger post scheme programming.
2:39
Speaker 1: There was a scrum.
2:41
Speaker 2: That took place late in that Dodger Podre game, and
2:45
Speaker 2: we had belly bumping managers. Was it a belly bumped
2:50
Speaker 2: Was it a show of Dave Roberts and the podres
2:53
Speaker 2: manager shilt getting into it.
2:55
Speaker 1: We'll talk more about that as we work our way
2:57
Speaker 1: through the overnight. But don't bury the lead, my man.
3:00
Speaker 1: We're not going to be the lead.
3:01
Speaker 2: So I lead this hour is from the home state
3:03
Speaker 2: of popcorn legend, Orville Reddenbacher, Orville Reddenbacker from Indiana, now
3:10
Speaker 2: in Indianapolis, the heart of the Hoosier State, a fine
3:14
Speaker 2: city with some really good restaurants. I was there years ago,
3:16
Speaker 2: back when Reggie Miller, who's now a cheerleader apparently watching
3:20
Speaker 2: the game a cheerleader for the Pacers, but he was
3:21
Speaker 2: playing before he became a cheerleader years ago, and I
3:25
Speaker 2: enjoyed my time in Indianapolis. So is Game six of
3:28
Speaker 2: the NBA Finals, the Thunder looking to close things out,
3:33
Speaker 2: to sellbrate good times, to celebrate a championship. All they
3:39
Speaker 2: had to do was win over the beaten and broken
3:42
Speaker 2: Pacers who were just trying to play that Beg's tune,
3:45
Speaker 2: the stay Alive, Stay and Alive and all that.
3:48
Speaker 1: Now, I don't know if you were watching.
3:51
Speaker 2: I'm going to assume the position, probably not based on
3:54
Speaker 2: the ratings. This is a FNF Finals, friends and family,
3:58
Speaker 2: friends and family, nobody else watching, So friends and family
4:02
Speaker 2: were tuned in.
4:03
Speaker 1: Don't worry though, we watch. It's our public service, so.
4:06
Speaker 2: You would not have to an act of kindness, a
4:09
Speaker 2: good mitzvah if you will. And there was the headline
4:13
Speaker 2: all day. Would Tyrese Haliburton play? Would he not play?
4:16
Speaker 2: What's going to happen here?
4:17
Speaker 3: Well?
4:18
Speaker 1: Playing with a strained right calf? He did play? And
4:22
Speaker 1: how did he do it well?
4:23
Speaker 2: Tyrese Saliburton had fourteen points in just twenty three minutes,
4:28
Speaker 2: and the Indiana basketball team had a laugher as they
4:34
Speaker 2: celebrate it a win.
4:36
Speaker 1: They were one celebrating over Oklahoma City.
4:38
Speaker 2: One oh eight ninety one, a game that was not
4:41
Speaker 2: that close, A game that was not that close on
4:45
Speaker 2: Thursday night. So we get a game seven, which normally
4:50
Speaker 2: would be solid gold. Again, very few people care about
4:54
Speaker 2: this NBA Finals based on the amount of people watching it.
4:58
Speaker 2: And so there you go, Burton playing on one good leg,
5:03
Speaker 2: on one good leg, and he made some plays. It
5:07
Speaker 2: was a balanced effort obi topping the old Knickerbocker led
5:10
Speaker 2: the Pacers with twenty points, a lot of that in
5:12
Speaker 2: garbage time off the bench. Indiana had not one, not two,
5:15
Speaker 2: not three, not four, not five, if my math is correct,
5:18
Speaker 2: six players in double figuress. I'm told as good. I
5:22
Speaker 2: didn't play in the NBA, but I'm told that's good.
5:24
Speaker 2: And they led by as many as thirty one points.
5:28
Speaker 2: Thirty one points the Pacers led by, and so all
5:32
Speaker 2: that's great. All that's really great stuff, and congratulations to
5:35
Speaker 2: the Pacers on the win. However, you know how we
5:38
Speaker 2: roll in these parts. You've been listening, you're nodding your head.
5:42
Speaker 1: Yes, I know. The better story is in the losing
5:47
Speaker 1: locker room.
5:48
Speaker 2: So let us discuss the question for the esteem panel,
5:52
Speaker 2: which you are a part of, whether you participate or not,
5:57
Speaker 2: and the company's making it very hard for you to participate.
5:59
Speaker 2: The question does this performance qualify as a chokey mic?
6:04
Speaker 2: Choke by Shay jogis Alexander and the Thunder. So my
6:10
Speaker 2: thoughts on this. I've got UMass whirlpool refrigerator and penny slots,
6:17
Speaker 2: and we will combine all of these things together and
6:21
Speaker 2: we are going to make a one way ticket back
6:24
Speaker 2: to the dust Bowl, because that's where both these teams
6:27
Speaker 2: will be going. One last night, one last night of
6:31
Speaker 2: pro bouncy ball, and then it's all over or not.
6:35
Speaker 2: The last the parties over a Sunday night, which I'm
6:38
Speaker 2: happy about. We get one more night of content, one
6:41
Speaker 2: more night of content for the show, which I'm pleased about.
6:44
Speaker 1: And I'll be watching and I like Game sevens.
6:46
Speaker 2: I don't really care about either one of these teams,
6:48
Speaker 2: but I enjoy Game seven, so I'll be watching. Hopefully
6:50
Speaker 2: we get a close game. I'm looking forward to that.
6:53
Speaker 2: More on that in a second. But answer the question,
6:55
Speaker 2: does this performance qualify as a choke by S and
7:00
Speaker 2: the Thunder? The only acceptable answer is three letters.
7:05
Speaker 1: Y E S. That's it.
7:08
Speaker 2: That's all this game was set up. It was on
7:11
Speaker 2: a pedestal. It was on a pedestal for OKC. No
7:15
Speaker 2: Scott Foster. The NBA did not bring in the extender.
7:20
Speaker 2: He was not called in off the bench to make
7:22
Speaker 2: sure this series went to seven games. Indiana appeared to
7:25
Speaker 2: be a bedraggled basketball team, as their star Tyre's Halliburt
7:30
Speaker 2: we mentioned playing with one good leg and yet you
7:34
Speaker 2: look down from thirty thousand feet in the sky and
7:38
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City, this performance by coach Mark Dagno and his
7:45
Speaker 2: team was a I call it a U mass like
7:48
Speaker 2: performance because Oklahoma City on this night they were minute men,
7:52
Speaker 2: is what they were. We did the math and we determined,
7:56
Speaker 2: based on a thorough, thorough review of the available evidence,
8:01
Speaker 2: that Oklahoma City played effectively good basketball for three minutes
8:07
Speaker 2: and thirty four seconds period, heartstop.
8:11
Speaker 1: Three minutes and thirty four seconds. Oklahoma City jumped out
8:13
Speaker 1: to a ten.
8:14
Speaker 2: To two lead in the game, and that was at
8:17
Speaker 2: the eight to twenty six mark of the first quarter.
8:21
Speaker 2: And then they had to play the rest of the game.
8:24
Speaker 2: And that was the problem from that point forward, from
8:27
Speaker 2: the ten to two advantage for the Thunder until early
8:30
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter, the Thunder, we're told, one of
8:34
Speaker 2: the all time great individual teams, were outscored by thirty
8:39
Speaker 2: nine points in an NBA Finals game.
8:44
Speaker 1: Pah, tick pa tick horrific. Hey are you even trying?
8:53
Speaker 1: Are you even trying?
8:55
Speaker 2: To be outscored by thirty nine points in that stretch,
8:58
Speaker 2: and there the garbage time after that. Let's say there
9:00
Speaker 2: was garbage time before that as well. So where is
9:03
Speaker 2: the finger of blame as we turn the page? Where
9:06
Speaker 2: is the finger of blame? Pointed at Burro Casey. We
9:11
Speaker 2: love to play the blame game and pointing the finger.
9:14
Speaker 2: Let's start with SGA all right. Now there's a lot
9:18
Speaker 2: of letters here. You got SGA and then I've got
9:21
Speaker 2: in my algebra equation, I've got MVP. So I've got
9:26
Speaker 2: SGA and then I've got MVP. And he was standing
9:31
Speaker 2: right in front of the Whirlpool refrigerator. Shay jogis Alexander.
9:37
Speaker 2: He was standing right in front of the refrigerator, the
9:39
Speaker 2: Whirlpool refrigerator. Now he had a chance to close the
9:43
Speaker 2: refrigerator door, to turn the lights out, have the eggs cooling,
9:47
Speaker 2: Watch as the butter is getting hard and the jello's jiggling,
9:50
Speaker 2: as the iconic late Great chick her and old.
9:53
Speaker 1: Sportscasters said back in his day, did that happen?
9:57
Speaker 4: No?
9:58
Speaker 2: Instead, what do we got? The under had twenty one turnovers?
10:05
Speaker 2: Twenty one, so bakery is what that is? Eight of
10:09
Speaker 2: them by Shay Jogis Alexander eight of them, eight of them.
10:17
Speaker 2: He had seven made baskets and eight turnovers. He sucked
10:22
Speaker 2: at a time you cannot suck. In Game six of
10:26
Speaker 2: the NBA Finals, let's go jump ahead. Here a cut
10:28
Speaker 2: two mark, and here's SGA pointing out that it was
10:33
Speaker 2: not a good night to play basketball for OKAC.
10:36
Speaker 1: Take a listen.
10:38
Speaker 3: The way I see it is, we suck tonight if
10:40
Speaker 3: we've learned the lessons and we have one game for everything,
10:46
Speaker 3: for everything we've worked for, and so do they, and
10:49
Speaker 3: the better team Sunday will win.
10:51
Speaker 2: Okay, So at least he admitted he did suck at
10:53
Speaker 2: a time you cannot suck. So we appreciate that that
10:56
Speaker 2: is the first step to rehabilitation when you're writing the
10:59
Speaker 2: vomit comet. Here is SGA asked whether or not the
11:03
Speaker 2: Thunder had championship dreams and they were already imagining what
11:08
Speaker 2: it would be like to do that big postgame celebration
11:12
Speaker 2: winning the title in game six, Yers, what do you
11:14
Speaker 2: had to say on that?
11:16
Speaker 3: See in the back of our minds for sure. Now,
11:20
Speaker 3: we didn't play like it at all, and that's why
11:22
Speaker 3: the night went the way it did. We got exactly
11:25
Speaker 3: what we deserved, what we earned. Then we had to
11:28
Speaker 3: own that.
11:30
Speaker 2: See, I would argue they played like they thought they
11:32
Speaker 2: had the game in the bag. If you saw anything
11:35
Speaker 2: leading up to this game, it was a FATA compleat.
11:39
Speaker 2: It was in the back. What's in the back, championship, championship,
11:42
Speaker 2: it was in the back, championship in the back, to
11:45
Speaker 2: show up.
11:45
Speaker 1: That's it. You're done, You're good, You're gonna win. Man now.
11:50
Speaker 1: The coach of the Thunder, Mark Dagnoll, pointing.
11:54
Speaker 2: Out they were this close, they were right there and
11:58
Speaker 2: they can almost taste the champion.
12:00
Speaker 4: Yep.
12:00
Speaker 1: Coach explain that to me.
12:03
Speaker 5: It was hard tonight. You know, Indiana was great and
12:06
Speaker 5: we were not.
12:07
Speaker 1: So we have the same.
12:09
Speaker 5: Opportunity Indiana does on Sunday scorell B zero zero when
12:12
Speaker 5: the ball goes up in the air. It's a privilege
12:14
Speaker 5: to play in game sevens. It's a privilege to play
12:16
Speaker 5: in the finals. As disappointing as tonight was, we're grateful
12:20
Speaker 5: for the opportunity and we put in a lot of
12:23
Speaker 5: work this season to be able to play that game
12:25
Speaker 5: at home, you know, which is exciting to be able
12:26
Speaker 5: to do it in front of our fans. So, you know,
12:29
Speaker 5: obviously disappointed tonight, but we'll regroup, get back to zero,
12:33
Speaker 5: learn from it with clear eyes like we always do,
12:36
Speaker 5: get ourselves as ready as we can be to play
12:38
Speaker 5: game seven on Sunday.
12:40
Speaker 1: That's nothing but cliches.
12:42
Speaker 2: That is sports cliche dot Com from Mark Dagnow Dagno,
12:47
Speaker 2: who is just going on and on? I mean that
12:50
Speaker 2: was at least seven right now. I was alerted by
12:52
Speaker 2: one of our eagle eared listeners who said that right
12:56
Speaker 2: after the game, and I turned the game off right
12:59
Speaker 2: after the game.
12:59
Speaker 1: Because there was no point.
13:01
Speaker 2: Who cares, But I'm told that the point guard Tyrese
13:05
Speaker 2: Haliburton of the Pacers went full on sports cliche guy
13:09
Speaker 2: also on the television interview. I've not heard that yet.
13:13
Speaker 2: We'll try to track that down, but he apparently just
13:15
Speaker 2: gave nothing but cliches in his interview. But back to
13:18
Speaker 2: the point at hand. So we mentioned SGA seven made baskets,
13:22
Speaker 2: eight turnovers, and who else gets to wear the clown knows?
13:26
Speaker 1: How about loud Dort, the.
13:28
Speaker 2: Great loude Dort, Jalen Williams and Alex Caruso. The Three
13:33
Speaker 2: Musketeers of Misery, The Three Musketeers of misery co conspirators
13:40
Speaker 2: behind SGA for this performance.
13:42
Speaker 1: Now Dort wasn't dud loude Dort? Was it done?
13:45
Speaker 2: He finished with three points. He had a minus twenty
13:49
Speaker 2: eight on the plus minus. That means while he was
13:52
Speaker 2: on the court, his team was outscored by twenty eight.
13:55
Speaker 2: How about Alice Caruso, the one that got away from
13:59
Speaker 2: the La, the bald Mamba, the bald mamba, who played
14:04
Speaker 2: like a bald middle aged man. He had a cardio game.
14:08
Speaker 2: It was like he was playing the ymca, running around
14:10
Speaker 2: doing cardio. He finished with as many points as you
14:13
Speaker 2: and I had. That's it zilch zip o, zip nada.
14:19
Speaker 2: As my friend and former FSR personalities Jama would say,
14:24
Speaker 2: Didley squat in twenty two minutes twenty two minutes and
14:29
Speaker 2: the Thunder were outscored by thirty three points. With Alex Caruso,
14:32
Speaker 2: the bald Mamba, the white mamba as some call him
14:36
Speaker 2: on the floor, how.
14:36
Speaker 1: About Jalen Williams.
14:38
Speaker 2: You talk about a forty for forty He said hold
14:42
Speaker 2: my beer to lud Dort and he said, hold my beer.
14:45
Speaker 2: Alex Caruso. Jay Williams had sixteen points. If I'm not mistaken.
14:50
Speaker 2: He had forty points in the previous game in the finals.
14:54
Speaker 2: While he was on the court, the Thunder were outscored
14:57
Speaker 2: by forty And again, I didn't playing the NBA.
15:01
Speaker 1: I'm not a baller. I'm just a gas bag. I
15:03
Speaker 1: don't believe that's particularly good. But what do I know?
15:07
Speaker 2: What do I He was on the court, a guy
15:09
Speaker 2: that was in the running and still is in the
15:11
Speaker 2: running for finals MVP of Oklahoma City wins. It's gonna
15:14
Speaker 2: be Sga or Jalen Williams and outscored by forty forty points?
15:19
Speaker 2: All right, now the last word here. So we do
15:23
Speaker 2: have a Game seven of the NBA Finals. It is
15:26
Speaker 2: on Sunday night. I believe it is going to be broadcast.
15:30
Speaker 1: On some random channel on tub. I think I believe.
15:35
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm wrong on that. Maybe I'm wrong on that.
15:38
Speaker 2: So who's got the edge heading into Game seven? A
15:42
Speaker 2: first glance, knee jerk. Look at Game seven? We will
15:46
Speaker 2: not have a live talk show. I'll do the podcast
15:49
Speaker 2: this weekend. We'll have the Friday, Saturday, Sunday pods and
15:53
Speaker 2: all that. But who's got the edge heading into Game
15:55
Speaker 2: seven between the Pacers and the Thunder.
15:59
Speaker 1: So I'm going with Indiana. Oh, you're just being a
16:03
Speaker 1: shock jock. No, I'm not.
16:05
Speaker 2: Let me give you my rationale. Let me give you
16:07
Speaker 2: my evidence. I'll state my case why. I believe the
16:11
Speaker 2: Indiana Pacers have a slight edge. It's not a large edge,
16:15
Speaker 2: it's a slight edge. Here's what imagine.
16:18
Speaker 1: If you will.
16:19
Speaker 2: Being at the casino and you're playing the penny slots. Now,
16:24
Speaker 2: the penny slots make the most money for the casino.
16:28
Speaker 2: They make more money from the penny slots than anything
16:30
Speaker 2: else in the casino. That's why there's so many penny slots,
16:33
Speaker 2: because they're not really penny slots. Right.
16:34
Speaker 1: You end up playing much more than just one penny,
16:37
Speaker 1: and so you're paying.
16:38
Speaker 2: You're playing the penny slots, and you get fifty free plays,
16:42
Speaker 2: fifty free spins. That's the Pacers. They're playing with house money.
16:47
Speaker 2: They're unencumbered. They can play free ando loose. That doesn't
16:51
Speaker 2: mean they are gonna play that way, but they again't.
16:52
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City has had, I'm told by many basketball toe lickers,
16:58
Speaker 2: a all time great history season, sixty eight wins during
17:02
Speaker 2: the regular season, they're at home, they're favored.
17:06
Speaker 1: By I believe they opened at nine.
17:07
Speaker 2: I believe they're favored by eight points in the game
17:10
Speaker 2: on Sunday the overnight line, so favored by eight, You've
17:13
Speaker 2: got the MVP of the NBA, you're dining on your
17:17
Speaker 2: home cooking.
17:18
Speaker 1: You're supposed to win the game.
17:21
Speaker 2: All of those ingredients are in your favor and they're
17:24
Speaker 2: all ingredients for what Tight took his syndrome, the tight
17:28
Speaker 2: spinter feeling, the squeeze. And this is one of those
17:33
Speaker 2: situations where Oklahoma City, by their gutless performance in Game six,
17:40
Speaker 2: just pathetic. This is an f around and find out
17:45
Speaker 2: chart situation. U f around and you're gonna find out
17:49
Speaker 2: Game seven. Matchups do not matter, doesn't matter what you think,
17:56
Speaker 2: who you think has has an edged. The film doesn't
17:58
Speaker 2: really matter, who cares about that? And home court doesn't matter.
18:02
Speaker 2: Injuries don't matter. The only thing that matters, and this
18:06
Speaker 2: is why we love Game seven is who does better
18:10
Speaker 2: in that moment is the great Dick Stockton taught me
18:13
Speaker 2: years ago. Stats tell you what has happened, not what's
18:17
Speaker 2: going to happen.
18:18
Speaker 1: That's why they play their games.
18:21
Speaker 2: So OKAC has ft around, they played with their food
18:25
Speaker 2: and now it's judgment day on Sunday night, and I'm
18:29
Speaker 2: there for and I'm sure I'll be the the one
18:33
Speaker 2: representative of the overnight watch. I don't know anybody else can
18:37
Speaker 2: watch that, but I'll be checking it out on Sunday night.
18:38
Speaker 2: I look forward so Game seven to decide the championship.
18:43
Speaker 1: Now I'm told.
18:44
Speaker 2: That the company has not fixed the phones, so they
18:48
Speaker 2: continue to throw speed bumps in front of me.
18:51
Speaker 1: I appreciate that they want to make sure I'm on my.
18:53
Speaker 2: Toes as a talk show host doing a called in
18:54
Speaker 2: talk show with one line working, I do appreciate that.
18:59
Speaker 2: I don't want to get lazy, so I always prepare
19:02
Speaker 2: to not take any calls. Now, technically we will be
19:05
Speaker 2: able to take calls, but it's kind of like just
19:07
Speaker 2: calling your buddy Hank or something. If you have a
19:09
Speaker 2: friend Hank, say hey, Hank, and then nobody else can
19:12
Speaker 2: call Hank.
19:13
Speaker 1: Although even that, you can have multiple calls at the
19:15
Speaker 1: same time.
19:15
Speaker 2: Right, you have a call on and then you can say, hey,
19:18
Speaker 2: I'll put that call on hold, and then I'll take
19:20
Speaker 2: another call, and so then you can have three way calling.
19:23
Speaker 1: We don't even have that. We can't even do.
19:25
Speaker 2: That, but we will attempt to do an overnight call
19:28
Speaker 2: and talk show with one phone working. And if you
19:30
Speaker 2: want to be really, really bold and try to get
19:33
Speaker 2: that one line you can, you probably won't get it.
19:37
Speaker 2: You'll get a busy signal, a little like not even ring.
19:39
Speaker 2: And you know that's what I'm being told by people
19:42
Speaker 2: several I want. I want to let you know that
19:44
Speaker 2: several regular callers are this close to needing some kind
19:49
Speaker 2: of mental health because they haven't been able to get
19:51
Speaker 2: it based on the very angry messages.
19:55
Speaker 1: If they're saying saying to me, which I want you
19:58
Speaker 1: to know, I have not. I'm not the one. This
19:59
Speaker 1: is not a active sabotage.
20:01
Speaker 2: I have not gone into the phone system here in
20:03
Speaker 2: sabotage the phone system.
20:05
Speaker 1: I have not.
20:06
Speaker 2: If you want to try to get in eight seven
20:08
Speaker 2: seven ninety nine on Fox now, your better opportunity is
20:12
Speaker 2: on the X machine, much better opportunity. And if you
20:16
Speaker 2: want to give that a shot, and just ask what
20:18
Speaker 2: you might have asked on the air, if you had
20:20
Speaker 2: called in or said say something witty and funny, make
20:23
Speaker 2: other people smile while they work the graveyard shift and
20:27
Speaker 2: we are on the red eye flight.
20:28
Speaker 1: You can do that at Ben Malor. That's at Ben malor.
20:32

Speaker 2: the court of sports talk radio. So please act accordingly.

21:45
Speaker 6: Here?
21:46
Speaker 1: It seems to be the case.
21:48
Speaker 4: We got an email earlier today that said it wouldn't
21:50

Speaker 2: machine and coops here at a Bronco fan, your comments

Speaker 2: can and we'll be used against you in the court
22:47
Speaker 2: of sports radio. So we were talking about the NBA
22:50
Speaker 2: Finals and it will go to a Game seven that
22:53
Speaker 2: will be played on Sunday, and so we're mildly excited
22:58
Speaker 2: about that as we can be about a series that
23:01
Speaker 2: we're really knocked that into.
23:02
Speaker 1: But hey, why not let's I heard at.
23:05
Speaker 2: The beginning of the broadcast before I hit the mute
23:07
Speaker 2: button because of Doris Burke, I heard Mike Breen, who
23:11
Speaker 2: was laying it on thick, he had his knee pads on,
23:13
Speaker 2: talking about what a great NBA Finals it's been. And
23:16
Speaker 2: I said, you know what, I'd do the same thing.
23:17
Speaker 2: If I was making the amount of money Mike Breen
23:19
Speaker 2: was to call NBA games, I would I would say,
23:22
Speaker 2: what an amazing finals it was. I don't care if
23:25
Speaker 2: they were serving me dog food, I would be like,
23:28
Speaker 2: this is so good.
23:29
Speaker 1: Oh my God, give me more, Give me more, Give
23:32
Speaker 1: me more, Give me more.
23:34
Speaker 2: Anyway, do we have the player the night I assumed
23:36
Speaker 2: the play of the ice from the NBA Finals.
23:38
Speaker 1: Do we have that ready to go? All right? Very exciting.
23:41
Speaker 1: So we are lining that up as we speak right now. Well,
23:45
Speaker 1: as soon as we get.
23:46
Speaker 2: That, we will we will give it to you, and
23:48
Speaker 2: then we have some calls to take.
23:49
Speaker 1: Prior to that. The phones apparently have been fixed. The
23:53
Speaker 1: long national nightmare is over, and to the phones we go.
23:57
Speaker 2: And a man that has been knocked out has not
23:59
Speaker 2: been able to call in because of the glitch. The
24:02
Speaker 2: thing of a jig not working, and that is Andre
24:06
Speaker 2: in the Commonwealth. I know Justin in Cincinnati's excited he's back,
24:10
Speaker 2: and several of those super fans of the show. But
24:12
Speaker 2: here he is Andre, the summer of Andre now as
24:16
Speaker 2: he's done with that whole school thing. Hello, Andre, welcome,
24:21
Speaker 2: yes man, very.
24:22
Speaker 7: Good to be with you.
24:23
Speaker 6: And I'm glad that this glitch has been worked out
24:26
Speaker 6: because it's a celebratory day, not necessarily for the Oklahoma
24:29
Speaker 6: City sunder, but for myself here in the Commonwealth. Also
24:33
Speaker 6: willis we're getting ready to go outside. School is certainly
24:36
Speaker 6: and definitely and most definitively out for the summer, Okay,
24:40
Speaker 6: So I'm looking forward to getting back into my regular
24:44
Speaker 6: work duties with the Mala Militia in order to move up,
24:47
Speaker 6: to move up the ladder. So that's the happy note.
24:51
Speaker 6: On the other note, it is somewhat happened, but not
24:53
Speaker 6: for the people again in Oklahoma City. Two best words
24:56
Speaker 6: in sports game seven and form my mind is lot
25:00
Speaker 6: of people thinking this is going to be a coronation.
25:02
Speaker 6: Coronation tonight. Ben. I think Adam Silver was in the building.
25:05
Speaker 6: He most certainly had to have been, but we didn't
25:06
Speaker 6: see any pans to Adam Silver in the craft. I
25:09
Speaker 6: think he might have gotten a private jet and went
25:10
Speaker 6: back to Manhattan half times, all right, because this thing
25:13
Speaker 6: was in the tank. I mean, Oklahoma City did a
25:15
Speaker 6: no show, and I give the bench their bench a
25:18
Speaker 6: little bit of credit, right because they ended up losing
25:20
Speaker 6: by seventeen about that's not really embarrassing, but they were
25:23
Speaker 6: getting a thirty piece with special sauce for most of
25:25
Speaker 6: this game. So we go into the game seven. I
25:29
Speaker 6: do think technologically it doesn't you know, you lose by
25:31
Speaker 6: seventeen eighteen on the road, you say, okay, we can.
25:34
Speaker 6: You know, I wanted Indiana to put it on them
25:36
Speaker 6: and get that thirty piece, you know, like the Memorial
25:38
Speaker 6: Day massacres. I'm dating myself, Ben, But nineteen eighty four
25:40
Speaker 6: Boston Celtics against the last right, right, you know.
25:43
Speaker 1: And I I remember, I remember, yes.
25:47
Speaker 2: Yeah.
25:47
Speaker 6: So so if it's a beautiful thing game seven, it
25:50
Speaker 6: could go either way, and it's a toss up. I
25:53
Speaker 6: said Indiana and seven. I'm gonna stick with that, even
25:56
Speaker 6: though I think Oklahoma City's the more talented team. I'm
25:58
Speaker 6: sick with my original pick. But here's my my final
26:00
Speaker 6: take on this bench. If Indiana continues the momentum and
26:03
Speaker 6: can get a double digit lead on Oklahoma City. I
26:06
Speaker 6: think they will crack under the pressure. I think, Okay,
26:08
Speaker 6: he has to get out to a lead and make
26:09
Speaker 6: Indiana play catch up versus the other way around. And
26:12
Speaker 6: I think that's gonna be, you know, like a heavyweight match, Ben,
26:16
Speaker 6: that first half in terms of who lands the first
26:18
Speaker 6: tower punch. That's the way it's gonna go. I'm thrilled
26:20
Speaker 6: to be with you for the summer.
26:21
Speaker 7: Ben.
26:21
Speaker 6: I even know I'm gonna miss until Sunday, but I'm back,
26:24
Speaker 6: and you know I'm perpetuity. He's a beautiful thing and
26:26
Speaker 6: will Steven, though he's not barking, he says hello too.
26:29
Speaker 6: All right, we'll just cruise out into the sunset if
26:31
Speaker 6: it's beautiful. Ben.
26:32
Speaker 2: All right, there he goes are fired up, a man
26:35
Speaker 2: relieved that the national nightmare is over.
26:39
Speaker 1: The phones are.
26:40
Speaker 2: Now working here, and hallelujah for him and for the
26:43
Speaker 2: people that have been sending me very angry emails.
26:46
Speaker 1: You can calm down. Everything is okay, everything is fine.
26:50
Speaker 1: There's nothing to see here.
26:51
Speaker 2: A lot of people excited, and I was happy about
26:56
Speaker 2: this too, because one of the highlight I don't know
26:57
Speaker 2: we have this is the play of the night, but
26:59
Speaker 2: the Pascal Siakam hammered dunk is the play that most
27:04
Speaker 2: people are gonna remember from this game. They apparently the
27:09
Speaker 2: editing staff chose that not to put that in, apparently
27:11
Speaker 2: if they determined that was not a not a highlight
27:15
Speaker 2: worthy of being played, even though it's the even though
27:18
Speaker 2: that's the only highlight that we really mattered. Uhiakam had
27:21
Speaker 2: a hammered dunk that was unforgettable, and it was really
27:25
Speaker 2: poetry in motion. It was really poetry in motion, insane
27:30
Speaker 2: for an in game dunk situation, and one of those
27:35
Speaker 2: moments that you know, back in the old days they
27:37
Speaker 2: used to say posterized. Nobody uses posters anymore, right, who
27:40
Speaker 2: puts posters up? But it was amazing, and I had
27:44
Speaker 2: so many people, so many people who reached out to me,
27:49
Speaker 2: and they were sending me messages because of the Marcel
27:52
Speaker 2: and Brooklyn drop and Marcel famously trying to pronounce Pascal
27:58
Speaker 2: Siakam's name and gave us one of the all time
28:01
Speaker 2: greatest drops in overnight talk radio and demonic Daggers Steve
28:07
Speaker 2: Matt Mike. I mean, there's several other guys. I jotted
28:12
Speaker 2: down a few names that were very happy, and they
28:14
Speaker 2: were upset that Mike Breen on the broadcast apparently did
28:18
Speaker 2: not say Pascal seea com which is what Marcel said
28:23
Speaker 2: was his name. I did not say that, Nature Boy
28:27
Speaker 2: writes in answering the call, A while these says Tyreeves
28:29
Speaker 2: did pretty good despite his calf issues. Yes he is
28:33
Speaker 2: holding a calf. AI is wonderful. Who's your bills excited?
28:37
Speaker 2: Although he did already give a concession speech? Bill Bill,
28:40
Speaker 2: did you not give a concession speech after Game five?
28:43
Speaker 2: I believe you did. You sent a concession speech out
28:46
Speaker 2: that it was over for the Pacers who goofed. I've
28:50
Speaker 2: got to know Chip and the qu'es right, Since says
28:52
Speaker 2: a plus on the mal monologue, I can't help but
28:55
Speaker 2: wonder why, if the games in the NBA are all
28:57
Speaker 2: indeed rigged by the league, why in Heaven's name would
29:02
Speaker 2: they put on this yawn fest between two teams most
29:05
Speaker 2: folks don't care.
29:06
Speaker 1: About and won't watch. Yeah, it's fair point.
29:13
Speaker 2: Do you think anyone who casually turned on that game
29:16
Speaker 2: was watching in the second half, or really even midway
29:19
Speaker 2: through the second quarter? Probably not Spoxwed calls in from
29:24
Speaker 2: the Oregon Trail and he says, Hey, I was at
29:28
Speaker 2: the Elks tonight calling BINGO for the lodge, so I
29:32
Speaker 2: wasn't able to watch the NBA game. However, I knew
29:35
Speaker 2: that the Ben Maler Show would take me to the
29:38
Speaker 2: better story and blow viate spectacularly. Great takedown of OKC,
29:43
Speaker 2: very entertainab Well, thank you, spox Weed. That was the
29:45
Speaker 2: atomic elbow A. I believe this is a an AI account.
29:50
Speaker 2: We're so popular now that AI social media accounts are
29:54
Speaker 2: sending messages in the name on this is Katie and
29:58
Speaker 2: singing the praises of the show.
30:01
Speaker 1: And then trying to get me to promote.
30:02
Speaker 2: Some scam artists, which I'm choosing not not to do.
30:07
Speaker 2: Shane and des Moines writes and says, thank god you're back.
30:10
Speaker 2: C minus to whoever ruined my heir everywhere earlier this week.
30:15
Speaker 1: Well that's not very nice, Shane. Come on now.
30:18
Speaker 2: G Managed in Chicago rites in from the Windy City
30:21
Speaker 2: says a plus on the mall monologue, I have to say,
30:24
Speaker 2: NBA is such a roller coaster ride. Reminds me of
30:27
Speaker 2: an X of mine. It's inconsistent. You never know what
30:31
Speaker 2: you're getting. It's filled with divas and it's a bad product.
30:35
Speaker 2: A team should never be losing at any point of
30:38
Speaker 2: a game by thirty points. Absolutely, g manjed one hundred percent.
30:42
Speaker 2: I recall conversations to the late great Bill Fitch, a
30:45
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame coach who I befriended late in his
30:49
Speaker 2: coaching career. He was coaching the LA Clippers at the
30:51
Speaker 2: Mausoleum there the sports arena in He had many pearls
30:54
Speaker 2: of wisdom. But one of the things he pointed out,
30:56
Speaker 2: he said, at that time, and this is when the
30:59
Speaker 2: talent was much better in the NBA from top to bottom,
31:02
Speaker 2: but he pointed out that as long as you play hard,
31:06
Speaker 2: fundamental basketball, you shouldn't never lose a game by even
31:13
Speaker 2: twenty points. But to be down by thirty, you're taking
31:15
Speaker 2: possessions off, You're playing sloppy, no attention to detail. And
31:20
Speaker 2: that's what happened to Oklahomaity. You know, you think they're
31:22
Speaker 2: gonna play much better in game seven.
31:24
Speaker 1: However, if it's close, late and close, what happens. I'll
31:31
Speaker 1: be watching. I'll be watching to find out.
31:32
Speaker 2: Milkman Mike in Colorado says great opening monologue to finish
31:36
Speaker 2: out the week. Much like the FSR phone lines, the
31:38
Speaker 2: thunder just didn't seem to work. And Sga sat there
31:41
Speaker 2: on the bench pouting like his mama took away his
31:45
Speaker 2: dessert because he didn't finish his dinner. And Jason in
31:50
Speaker 2: Kansas City, who I got to meet at the Mallard
31:52
Speaker 2: meet and Greedy says ten out of ten on the
31:55
Speaker 2: Mallard monologue, the Pacers played with actual pace. Well, the
31:59
Speaker 2: thunder were stuck in neutral. Also, OKC needs to stop
32:04
Speaker 2: with not starting Harkenstein. He says it hasn't worked and
32:09
Speaker 2: it won't work in Game seven, says the basketball savant
32:13
Speaker 2: Jason in can City. Scrooge in Northern California No col says,
32:20
Speaker 2: if the Pacers win Game seven, they will be the
32:23
Speaker 2: first team to have won an NBA Championship without a
32:27
Speaker 2: superstar caliber player because of others. Because other than some
32:32
Speaker 2: clutch shooting a game on Halliburton has been a jag,
32:34
Speaker 2: just a guy.
32:36
Speaker 1: Oh, they won't be the first.
32:37
Speaker 2: The Detroit Pistons are that team, Scrooge, was it The
32:41
Speaker 2: four Pistons who are credited as.
32:44
Speaker 1: Being the last team in the modern era and maybe
32:48
Speaker 1: the only team in the modern.
32:49
Speaker 2: Era to win a championship without a real headline superstar.
32:54
Speaker 2: Although it is interesting, No, in that series the Lakers
32:58
Speaker 2: had snap Crackle pop Berg Dog says, congratulations on the
33:01
Speaker 2: phones getting fixed to celebrate, How about putting all the
33:04
Speaker 2: lines on the air at the same time. No, No,
33:06
Speaker 2: that does. That still doesn't work. The phone system, it
33:11
Speaker 2: still does. It does not work anyway. It is the
33:15
Speaker 2: Ben Mahlor Show. As we are working our way through
33:18
Speaker 2: the overnight hours, chopping away, chop chop chop, chop, chop,
33:24
Speaker 2: chop chop. As we we can't be stopped. We cannot
33:28
Speaker 2: be stopped here in the overnight. Let's go back to
33:30
Speaker 2: the phone. Let's say hello to Jackson, who's in Seattle.
33:32
Speaker 2: Hello Jackson, Welcome, Jackson is gone. Poppy in San Diego,
33:38
Speaker 2: Hello Poppy.
33:40
Speaker 7: Hey man, I'm so glad to here, like my mental
33:44
Speaker 7: health is. It's good now because the lads are finally working.
33:48
Speaker 2: Oh thank god, Hellelujah, hallelujah.
33:51
Speaker 7: But I'm also happy because the Padres, oh San Diego,
33:55
Speaker 7: they won. You know, it's a good day right here.
33:57
Speaker 7: But what I wanted to talk more is what you said.
34:00
Speaker 7: Great monologue from my menser, But how you say the
34:03
Speaker 7: better news is in the losing locker room. So I
34:06
Speaker 7: have the inside screw for you guys. So SGA then
34:10
Speaker 7: the text message to Adam Silver, he said he was
34:12
Speaker 7: not happy what went on, and he told them, you
34:16
Speaker 7: know what, I'm not happy. You better make this up.
34:18
Speaker 7: So Adam seldom tell them a text message back and
34:21
