  Speaker 1: Our lead this hour is from La, La Land, And
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: for the second consecutive night, the biggest story in all
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: of sports. You can ram it all day and you
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: can ram it all night. The Rams who made the
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: biggest move of the offseason, the defining move. They won
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: the championship this week and they gotta play all these
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: stupid games to get to February at so far when
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: they're crowned to champion. But the major move of the offseason,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: winning the offseason trading were the preeminent defensive player, Miles Garrett.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: And for everyone else in the NFC West and the
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: NFC in general, turnout the LODs the parties over. Yeah,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: so Miles Garrett coming over to La from the Factory
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: of Sadness and said, well, that was a story from yesterday.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: What are you doing talking about it now, you mora
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: And you're telling me, well, I explain, Let me explain
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: to you, all right.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: So thanks man.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: So this has sparked renewed interest from retired defensive tackle
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Aaron Donald about a comeback. Yes that, Aaron Donald.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: Do you see any of this? Do you hear anything
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: about it?
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: No? The pride to Pittsburgh, Aaron Donald. We have those
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: great cinnamon roles in Pittsburgh. One of our guys came
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: down from Pittsburgh during the Ohio Meet and greet and
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: brought or Kentucky improught the cinemas, which were just freaking outstanding. Anyway,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Aaron Donald texting a number of people, including some NFL
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: in types and saying he is quote for sure flirting
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: with the idea of unretiring. And Donald's been out of
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: the NFL for a couple of years. He mentioned the
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: opportunity of playing for a Super Bowl contender. Of course,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: the Rams every year are a Super Bowl contender, so
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know why this would be any different, and
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: especially the fact that the Super Bowl in February will
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: be hosted in the hood in ingle Wood, at the
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Rams Home Stadium and up to no good. He added quote,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: if I can find the fire, it's a possibility. Well,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: ask Karen Bass, the mayor of la she knows a
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: thing or two about fire. The whole city burned down
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: while she was mayor.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: Say she wasn't here for her That's right, she might
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: not know about fire. She was in Africa. Well, the
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: whole town burned down. Anyway.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Let us discuss the question, how do you process Aaron
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: Donald publicly flirtatious.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: With a return to the lryon.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: So I've got Yoda, fiberglass, and Grizzly Bear not in underwear.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: We'll combine all of these things together and we will
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: be as clear as crystal.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: So a Aaron Donald is out here stirring the pot
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: like he's auditioning for a Food Network show called Chaos
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Kitchen with Aaron Donald.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: The Big teas.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: By mister Donald here flirting with the comeback, texting his
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: buddies in the media. You know, it's like that X
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: that text the gives you that text at dayton at
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: hey stranger at one in the morning.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: You know what that means. You know what that means.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: You don't believe it.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: You definitely look though, you're like, Okay, do I want
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: to go down that road? The instigator, the agitator, the
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: aggravator who stepped away after the twenty twenty three season
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: was done with the NFL has stayed in pretty good
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: shape by all accounts. It's not like he let himself go.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: He's not a big fat turd at this particular point.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: Ten year run and all that with the Rams, future
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, all the accolades have filled up the
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: Wikipedia page with Defensive Player of the Year awards and
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: first Team All Pro and all those things helped the
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: Rams win Super Bowl fifty six back in the day.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: And as the late great Brian Wheeler would have said,
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Donald is bonafide, certified and overqualified all of those things.
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: And depending on how much he has left after collecting
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: rust for a couple of years, again, he's in shape.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: But he hadn't played in a while. Donald, he doesn't
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: need a reason to return. I suppose he needs a purpose.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: It's all about the purpose.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Now, there is a difference here.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Now, Sean McVay is basically Motel six at this particular point.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: We'll leave the light on for you.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Is the message to Aaron Donald and room service, as
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: many protein shakes.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: As you want, we got you.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: And if Donald is really tempted, which he appears to be,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: or he just wants attention, this possibility, he just wants attention.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: If he's really tempted, though, to play with Miles Garrett,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: that would be an absolutely terrifying defensive line. Pairing Aaron
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Donald with Miles Garrett is like putting a turbo charger
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: on a tank, is what it would be. And is
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: it necessary? No, the Rams are good enough to win
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl without Aaron Donald coming back. Now my advice,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: and I know Aaron Donald wants the advice of overnight
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: talk radio. So the advice to Aaron Donald is simple,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: follow the wisdom of Yoda.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: I learned this as a child.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Try not do or do not, There is no try,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: just do it.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: I think Nike used that slugan just do it. Just
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: come back. And if you don't want to come back,
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: stop flirting. It's annoying.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: Okay, Like there's really nothing to say. Just I'm I
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: mean back. You announce I'm back. You don't need to
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: say I might come back because you're just trying to
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: get attention. When you say that and nobody wants an
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: attention wore all right now page two to Atlanta we
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: go the Falcons. Who knew the Falcons had money. The
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: prices at home depot are going to go off. As
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: wide receiver, Drake London, Drake London, good name, good name.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: Drake London has agreed to a four year contract for
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: one hundred and forty one million. That's a pretty sizable extension,
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: said the wise guy. So he'll be with the Atlanta
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Falcons through the next couple of years. He'll get one
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: hundred million guaranteed. One hundred million guaranteed for Drake London.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Has anyone ever bought a ticket to watch Drake London
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: play football? Good for him and up to up to
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: weasel term one hundred and fifty million dollars with incentives
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: the AAV which is all most people care about, the
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: average annual value thirty five point two five million dollars,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: making him, meaning Drake London, the third highest paid wide
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: receiver in the NFL. So the question using the time
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: tested Goldielocks test, which is wonderful. We love the Goldilocks test,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: is the Falcon one hundred and forty one million dollar
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: extension of Drake London too.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: Much, too little, or just right all right?
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: So after a minutes long deliberation on the available information,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: this deal completely flunks the test. It is boiling hot porridge.
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: Listen.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Good for Drake London. He bamboozled the Atlanta Falcon front
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: office here. Now, I like London. I like the player.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I don't hate the player. I like to play. He's
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: big body, he's strong, seemingly reliable. Those are all good
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: qualities to have as an NFL receiver. However, this particular
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: contract is a magic mountain ride. It's overpriced and overhyped.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: Is what it is.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: And the Falcons just paid Drake London like he's what
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: the love child the Julio Jones and Andrea Risen from
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: back in the day. This is classic Atlanta. You're paying
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: top five money for a top fifteen receiver and you're
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: saying this is all part of the vision.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: Board that we have.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Really, Okay, London's a very good player. I'm our trash.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: This contract, though, treats him like he's on the same
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: level as Justin Jefferson with a side of Jamar Chase.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: I don't see it, do you see it? I don't
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: see it. Receiver inflation is obviously real. This is hyper inflation.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: They're gonna blame Putin on this like the old president did.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: The Falcons didn't just jump the market. They use some
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: fiberglass and they pull vaulted.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: Over the market, is what they did.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: And wide receiver is the most volatile position in football,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: and Atlanta just it's like buying bitcoin at the peak. Well,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: that's probably not the wisest thing to do. Why would
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: you do that. You don't win the Super Bowl by
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: making your white out the highest paid player. You win
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: them with elite quarterbacks and a balanced roster. That's generally
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: how that goes. Now, last word, we go to prime
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: time because we love our celebrities. That's right, we do.
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Deon Sanders in the sporting headlines again you see this, No,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: all right, So Deon Sanders, you got to think this
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: is his last year at Colorado.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: It has not gone well for Dion. Things are not
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: going particularly well. The team's mediocre. They had all that buzz,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: they had all that excitement, They dominated the ratings and
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: it just has all gone away. So Deon Sanders has
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: once again that there's any legitimacy to the widely reported
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: chatter from a year ago connecting him to having interest
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: with the Dallas Cowboys head coaching vacancy. This was last
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: off season. Sanders was asked recently about the Cowboys rumors
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: and said they weren't real at all.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: That's what he said. They weren't real.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Little I like playing the program game, Dion said. But
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: he said I wouldn't enjoy coaching the pro game. Really,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: it's a different game. Deon said, I'm focused on winning
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: and getting these kids through college.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: Blah blah blah blah blah.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: I have no thought process for the NFL whatsoever. Okay,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: close quote. So question, what is your instinct? Give me
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: your instinct on Dion Sanders' latest denials about wanting the
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Cowboys head coaching gig so Dion denying that he wants
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: the you know he wanted past tense. The Cowboys have
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: a coach, although it's always a temporary job. It's not
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: like shot, he's done a great job. So Dion denying
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: that he wants the Cowboys job is the biggest fairy
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: tale since Pinocchio went to school.
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: All right, So his nose.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Grew not one, not to three inches, just saying those
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: rumors weren't real at all. You could literally see that, yeah, liar, liar, liar,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: pants on fire. So he loves the college game the
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: way that I love Kale. And if you've ever met me,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: and some of you have, you know my relationship with
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Kale's a one sided relationship, very one side. So if
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Jerry Jones had actually called up Dion and say, hey, Prime,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: I want you to coach the Dallas Cowboys, Dion would
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: have thrown his back out reaching for the phone. He
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: would have fought a grizzly bear for that job, the
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: cowboy job. If Jerry had said, okay, all right, fine,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: and this is vintage coach Prime, Deny deflect and hope
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: nobody checks the receipts, don't check the receipts and all,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: because let's be really, the true problem with Dallas is
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: that Jerry and I love him as a talk shows
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: but Jerry loves being the only celebrity in that part
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: of the building. In Jerry's world, the coaching front office,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: He's the GM and all that. That's the exact reasoning
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Dion didn't get a serious look. And so now Sanders,
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: you talk about being in a holding pattern and he's
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: got to downplay the whole thing, of course, because he's
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: a college coach. He's got to pretend like he's content
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: in Boulder, Colorado because he's still got players to spend
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: nil money on and all that stuff. And I'm sitting
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: pretty with a meh sixteen and twenty one record.
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: For the Buffaloes.

  Speaker 1: This hour is from Pro Bouncy Ball, Bouncy Bouncy Bouncy
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Bouncy Bouncy The hiatus on the NBA Finals ends tonight.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: It's back on and like Donkey Kong, so Jalen Runson
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: and the New York Knicks looking to end a long
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: championship draft that goes back before cable television, before the Internet,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: when rotary phones were ruling the world, way back.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: In the day.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: And they'll take on Wemby, the Parisian Prodigy, the Import
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: from Peri and the San Antonio Spurs. Game one is
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: in San Antonio, which means it is time for everyone's
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: favorite guessing game, predictions.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: Predictions. Predictions.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: As you know, predictions are like fortune cookies, vague enough
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: to sound smart later. The key is to be vague.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: So that is a good jumping off point. Let's discuss
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: toss up question. Who you got the Knicks or the Spurs.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Who's going to win the NBA Finals? You make the call.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: So I've got shampoo, Ferrara Brands, and East River. We'll
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: to give you a migraine headache unless we don't, but
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: we'll give some pharmacy great ibuprof and so you'll be okay.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: So number one, number one, number one, number one, number
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: one one number stop. All right, So we're gonna go
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: with the boys from the Alamo. That's right, San and Tonio.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: We'll stand atop the mountain when it's all said and done,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: another June and another therapy bill for the New York
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Knickerbocker fans. As San Antonio, we'll add a fresh chapter
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: to the Book of Manhattan Misery. That's gonna happen. So
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: now you look on a tablet and not on paper.
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: Nobody really uses paper, although.
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: We do.
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: On a tablet though.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: New York is bringing a knife, a plastic knife, and
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: then San Antonio's got a lightsaber. It's a lightsaber fight,
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: and the nick have a knife, a plastic knife. And
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: the reason is because Victor Wembanyama is going to do
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: ufo things. We live in the Age of Discovery. The
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: goblins are out there, and as far as I know,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: there's at least a one percent chance that Victor Wimanyama
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: is a creation from somewhere else out in the cosmos.
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: So Wemby is going to go out there and he's
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: going to do his thing. And the nixill Be's trying
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: to read the instruction manual. How do we stop this?
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: What do we doing And it's like like the shampoo. Okay,
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Wemby is head and shoulders, head and shoulders, the top
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: player in the NBA finals, and you don't need to
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: go too deep. It's an Akham's razor situation. The simplest
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: answer is the right answer.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Here.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: He's head and shoulders above everyone else. In fact, he's
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: three zip codes. I looked it up. I looked at
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: the US postal code. He's three zip codes above anyone else.
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: Wemby.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Now, there is one little thing that I'd like to
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: address here, the memo to Wemby. No naps, no lollygagging,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: and no mercy. There were some stretches against the thunder
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: where he didn't shoot, He wasn't aggressive, he was way
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: too passive. He looked like a French soldier retreating. So
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: don't do that.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: Don't do that.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: Don't be daydreaming like you words. If you take every
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: possession like it matters, and you don't take a half
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: off here or quarter off there, San Antonio, there's no
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: way they.
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: Can lose this series.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Now, New York, do you have to imagine going in
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: just based on common basketball one oh one? You don't
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: have to be some kind of insider to know that
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: New York is going to try to bully Wemby because.
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: That appears to be the only part of.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: His game where there is a weakness there that he's
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: about as heavy Wambanyama as a feather, And so you
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: attack him and the Thunder had a little success until
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: they realized, well, Chet Holmgren sucks.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: He can't do it.
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: And so Karl Anthony Towns, do you have any confidence
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: in Carl Anthony Towns because I don't. He doesn't strike
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: me as the kind of guy capable of physicality and
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: bully ball. Now, is he gonna prove me wrong? Is
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Karl Anthony Town's gonna prove me wrong in the NBA Finals?
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: I'll believe it when I see it.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: The other key, and this is for San Antonio. If
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: you really want to f up the Knicks, you just
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: booby trapped Jalen Brunson.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: And they have the players that are capable of doing
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: it with you. Look at the guards there, Dearon Fox
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: and Castle and the different guys they have that can
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: match up with Jalen bruns So you harass Brunson and
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: you can't overhelp obviously, because that becomes a problem.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: They have the type.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Of players with great length, as the wise Man said there,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: that can disrupt, as Phil Jackson said back in the day,
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: hands on balls. Hands on balls, disrupt those passes. Get
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: a finger on the ball and then the ball will
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: go flying the opposite direction. And also it help to
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: get rebounds. Get some rebounds there. That would help control
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: the glass and force the Knicks to just shoot mid
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: range jump shots because they don't really kill you. Even
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: if they make a lot of them, they don't really
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: kill you. And do that and you'll be eating as
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: much Text mex as you want. You'll be partying on
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: the riverwalk.
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: So that's it now, Page two. Here on the New
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: York side.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: In particular here, there's been a lot of bandwidth. I've
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: been consuming the content from the basketball media elites, and
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: they tell me that it's all about momentum, that the
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: reason the Knicks are going to win is because of
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Uncle Moe, not the guy who lives in Jersey.
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: Momentum.
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: Okay, so I would like to be the guy that
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: pumps the breaks on the momentum talk. I'll be that guy.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: You're not that guy, Pal, You're not that guy. I
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: am that guy. Now New York, it is true, has
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: won a li eleven consecutive games in the playoffs, eleven
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: in a row, all of them by double digits. So
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: that was all excited about that. They swept the Sixers
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: and then the Cadavers in the Eastern Conference finals. And
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: at this moment, as we get ready to begin the
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty six NBA Finals, at this moment, the Knickerbockers
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: have the top point differential in NBA playoff history.
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: I'm told that's pretty good.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: They enter the finals at plus two hundred and seventy
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: one across. I believe that's the right number across all
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: of their playoff games. That is uncharted territory as we
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: enter the NBA Finals. So the question how much does
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: the Jalen Brunson Knicks momentum narrative matter? That's the question. So,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: as I have pointed out, I will go a little
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: deeper here. This so called momentum is pure adulterated Grade
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: A juice.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: It's hogwash juice is what it is.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: It's all natural, no artificial sweeteners, because it's hogwash is
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: what it is. Now, beating the Hawks, the Sixers and
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: the cadavers. This was not the Gauntlet. This was the
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: candy Isle, all right. The Knicks so far in the
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: playoffs have beaten the Ferrara brands. They beat the Nerds,
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: the Sweet Tarts, and the fund Dip. That's who they've
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: played so far, not actual quality opponents in any around.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: So congratulations, you beat playoff Harden. Are we supposed to
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: be impressed? You beat playoff Harden in the Eastern Conference?
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: Funal Pg. Thirteen and Philadelphia, we shouldn't even been there.
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: And then the CJ.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: McCollum is your top player option Atlanta Hawks, the Journeymen, CJ.
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: McCollum.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: We all right, So congratulations on that. As far as
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: the other part of it, which is obviously if you're
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: new to the show, let me be the voice of
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: reason here. Momentum is a bunch of gibberish.
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: And.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: It's one of those things you tell before reality shows up.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: It's like a fairy tale. This moo for the New
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: York Knicks will evaporate the second the Spurs are able
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: to exploit the many mismatches that they have in their favor.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: All right, and so he say, okay, Victor wembon Yama
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: starts treating the Knicks front court like a clearance rack.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: And then what happened to the momentum? They had all
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: the momentum the first off shooting night for the Knicks.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: Where did that go? I don't understand why it didn't
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: make all those shots? They had all the momentum. Yeah.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: So I've been doing this for a minute or two.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: And if you look at the annals of sports, like
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: the history of sports, it is a graveyard littered with
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: momentum darlings, media darlings of momentum, and they end up
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: getting bounced. It's like the fairy tale Cinderella's carriage turning
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: back into a pumpkin well before midnight. And you don't
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: talk about these teams because they lost. They lost, didn't
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: matter their accolades and all that. They didn't get it done.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: Now the final point, and this is a big problem
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: for a lot of people. What I'm about to say,
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: we'll stick with the owner's box. So for years and
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: years and years, the Knicks have served up dog food teams.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: It has been back and the one common denominator has
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: been James Dolan, the owner. Right, many media pundits have
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: attacked Dolan and They've just cursed his name. James Dolan,
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: the Knicks owner, has been called by many so called
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: experts the worst owner in sports now. He has owned
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: the Knicks since his day. Bought the team back in
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: the nineties and put him in charge. So it's been
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: like thirty years. James Dolan has run through some of
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: the biggest names in that sport. I'm talking about Isaiah Thomas,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Larry Brown, Phil Jackson, Tom Thibodeau, Mike Dan Tony, these
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: are big names that it just was a disaster when
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: they worked at the building above Penn Station, it just
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: did not go well there. He's lost sexual harassment lawsuits
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: for millions of dollars. James Dolan, he turned MSG into
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: a police state where they used facial recognition technology. Not
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: to keep bad guys out, not to keep criminals out. No, no, no,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: to ban personal enemies of James Dolan. They've used facial
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: They got in trouble for that.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: Google It.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: I'm not making that up. They sued the Raptors James
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: Dolan did, for like ten million dollars, claiming they stole
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: analytical data. Of course, why would anyone steal anything from
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: the Knicks. They were terrible for twenty five years, and
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: then he quietly dropped that lawsuit. I can go on
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: and on banned a fan from Madison Square Garden for
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: telling him to sell the team. A few years back,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: band Charles Oakley where the Great Knicks, was banned from MSG.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: So the question if the Knicks defive the Malard prediction
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: and if I'm wrong and the New York Knicks end
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: up winning the title here, what would that do to
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: the legend of James Dolan being the worst owner in sports?
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: And the idea that you need to have a good
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: owner to win is always the argument. We can't win,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: We've got a bad owner. I hear that all that
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Arty Marino with the Angels. He's an income poop. They
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: can't win because of Arty. Sell the team, people chanting
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: cell the well people chanted for years to James Dolan
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: to sell the Knickerbockers. So if the Knicks win the title,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: James Dolan a long running punchline, the patron saint of
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: bad optics, James Dolan, the human cease and Desist letter.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: That guy he gets a ring on his resume. The
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: Knicks win this thing, and for thirty years, the pundits
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: They all blamed him for every single.
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: Thing that went wrong.
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: They bamed him for the losing the size of the
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: subway rats in Manhattan, the smell of trash in August
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: on a hot summer night in the city, which is
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: the really the aroma of Manhattan, that smell of that
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: rotting food and the rats eating it there at five, six,
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: seven o'clock at night when they're picking up the trash there,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: that's the smell.
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: Blame him, Blame him.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: A Knicks title wouldn't just crack the you need a
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: great owner to win narrative. It would detonate that.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: Debt.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: Kaboom a kaboom, that narrative floating face down in the
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: East River. Okay, and you're looking at the ultimate MythBusters.
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: It's not like James Dolan has changed. He's the same
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: guy he was. You know. It would be proof that
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: you don't need a great owner, that you just hire
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: enough people. Eventually you'll hire one that knows what they're
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: doing and you get a couple of good players and
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: that's it. And just don't actively burn the building down
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: if you're the owner, and it doesn't matter what kind
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: of loser you are and what kind of schmuck you
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: are your team can win. And if Dolan wins every
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: sports you know, mythologist, if you will, needs to turn
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: in their badge and gone and that's it. The Nick
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: fans also, who have spent decades chanting sell the tape,
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: sell lot tape at Madison Square Garden. Are you now
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: going to have to send thank you notes to Dolan?
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Is that how that works? The legend would be dead
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: the bad guy wins. If the Knicks win, do you
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: want the bad guy to win? And then you can
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: turn on the blues music.
• 28:08

  Speaker 2: This is one big Ben gets grilled.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: All right, here we go and the koubloop for the
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: reading of the questions.
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: But it won't sound like he's reading well.
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: Russell Wilson is calling this transition to analyst a pause
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: on his playing career. But let's say he never plays
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: another down again. Will he make it to the Hall
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: of Fame?
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Well, I imagine that at some point he will get
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: to Canton, Ohio and he will.
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: Buy a ticket to get into Canton, Ohio. There is
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: no chance he is going to be. He's not a
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: Hall of Fame. He never even got a vote for
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: the MVP Award, never never made an All.
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: Pro team, and the team that he won with he
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: was along for the ride was the.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Legion of boom defense in Seattle.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Russ is one of He had a long career, not
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame career, not anywhere close by any metric.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: He's he a Hall of famer.
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: Next, despite his poor performance in the Western Conference finals,
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: the Oklahoma City Thunder have decided that they are not
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: going to pursue a trade of che Holmgren.
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: Ben, do you think this is the right move by then?
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: All right, So I don't believe the Thunder.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: They're gonna listen and if they get the right offer,
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: they will trade chet Holmgren. There is little reason to
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: keep him. He's a max player who became a mouse.
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: A mouse at the most important time, had two chances
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: to win the Western Conference and this guy choked, So
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: why would you keep him. They change it up a
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: little bit, trade him. He's got to you know, you
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: can get something for him. Still, so I don't believe
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: they're obviously gonna say they're gonna keep him.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: We'll find out.
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: When we get back to the NBA three months from now,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: when they come right back next Later this week, EA
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: Sports will announce the next cover athlete for the Madden
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: video game in Chicago.
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: Now being in Chicago has led people to speculate that
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: it'll be Caleb Williams. And then, if you were choosing
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: the cover athlete for this year's installments, who would you
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: have picked.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: Well, you obviously picked Miles Garrett. Put him in that
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: RAM uniform on there, and that's the guy they picked.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: The whole Caleb Williams thing. It is a truly, with
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: all joking aside, it is a slap at the Seattle
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Seahawks because Seattle, that's how uninteresting.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: The Seahawks were.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: You'd think, well, let's put Jackson Smith and Jigbaw in
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: there or somebody like it was Sam Donald. You can't
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: put Sam Donald and it was gonna buy the video game,
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: so that's it didn't Barkley was on there last year
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: right this Philadelphia had won the Super Bowl and he
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: had a great year. That tells you how mediocre that
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: Seattle team was. That they're just not popular and they
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: can't sell video games. So that to me, that's the story.
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: Caleb Williams like, that's fine. I don't really believe in
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: the whole Wami thing and all that. It doesn't matter.
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: The Bears aren't winning, the Rams are gonna win. There
• 30:56
