- 0:06Speaker 1: original recipe podcast. We were up all night recording this
- 0:10Speaker 1: fresh pod, and here in our number one, we'll talk
- 0:14Speaker 1: about the big upset of the night. The Boston Celtics
- 0:17Speaker 1: lose again as the Knickerbockers come back from twenty down
- 0:20Speaker 1: in the final fifteen minutes to beat the Boston basketball team.
- 0:24Speaker 2: So who gets the biggest.
- 0:26Speaker 1: Slices of the Celtic's Boston cream pie.
- 0:30Speaker 2: Of blame as they lose at home on the Parque again?
- 0:34Speaker 1: Is this series exposing cracks in Boston's championship DNA?
- 0:39Speaker 2: We'll talk about that.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Can you explain how Tom Thibodeau's Knicks have won both
- 0:44Speaker 1: of these games? What are they doing to come back.
- 0:47Speaker 2: In these games?
- 0:48Speaker 1: And what was the anatomy of the Celtic choke job?
- 0:51Speaker 1: We'll talk about that. Does the comp of Celtic coach
- 0:54Speaker 1: Joe Mozula being like JJ Reddick hold water? And is
- 0:58Speaker 1: Joe Mozula's confidence and asset or a liability for the
- 1:02Speaker 1: Celtics right about now, we'll talk about all of those
- 1:05Speaker 1: things and more. Here it is our number one.
- 1:13Speaker 3: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio, So.
- 1:21Speaker 1: If you lose Game one, that's just a random occurrence.
- 1:26Speaker 2: But if you lose again, what is that like? Where
- 1:29Speaker 2: does that fall in the spectrum?
- 1:31Speaker 4: Welcome in the beginning of another night of the Ben
- 1:36Speaker 4: Malors Show. We are in the air everywhere providing dialogue
- 1:44Speaker 4: of the death as we have the wrong number coast
- 1:49Speaker 4: the coast, border to border and beyond on the mast
- 1:52Speaker 4: and fantastically powerful microphones of fsre amminating from the pepper
- 2:02Speaker 4: as our sports takes get extra pepper from the Fox
- 2:07Speaker 4: Sports radio studios, just like truck stop Fungus puts extra
- 2:11Speaker 4: pepper on his food at random truck stops across North America. Well,
- 2:17Speaker 4: this portion of the Ben Malor Show made possible in
- 2:19Speaker 4: part by our friends at tire Rack.
- 2:22Speaker 2: For over forty years, tire Rack.
- 2:23Speaker 1: Has been helping customers find the right tires for how,
- 2:26Speaker 1: what and where they drive, ship fast and free back
- 2:30Speaker 1: by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
- 2:35Speaker 1: mobile tire installation. I see Ferg Dog nodding his head. Yes,
- 2:39Speaker 1: tire rack dot com the way the tire buying shure
- 2:45Speaker 1: be So two NBA games, but only one really worthy
- 2:48Speaker 1: of much conversation. So that is where we will begin
- 2:53Speaker 1: the conversation and oh, what a fun conversation it will
- 2:57Speaker 1: be here because our lead is from Boston. As that
- 3:01Speaker 1: was the stage for Game two, everyone and their mother
- 3:05Speaker 1: anticipating that the Boston basketball team would come out with
- 3:08Speaker 1: vengeance and they were going to not let their guard
- 3:11Speaker 1: down like.
- 3:12Speaker 2: Many said they did in Game one.
- 3:14Speaker 1: But it was the Eastern Conference semi finals, Jason Tatum
- 3:17Speaker 1: and the Seas trying to even the ledger against Jalen
- 3:21Speaker 1: Brunson in the knickerbocket. Now this was the early game.
- 3:24Speaker 1: Some say the undercard undercard, and I don't know if
- 3:28Speaker 1: you were watching it or not. If not, we had
- 3:30Speaker 1: another o mgmulmut, another OMG malmt in this one.
- 3:37Speaker 2: What was it?
- 3:38Speaker 1: McHale Bridges ceiling, another massive comeback. The Knicks were down
- 3:44Speaker 1: by twenty. Again they did it again. Oops, it happened again.
- 3:49Speaker 1: Down twenty. The Knicks stormback, second straight win and second
- 3:55Speaker 1: straight game, ceiling steal at the very end, and the
- 4:00Speaker 1: Knickerbockers leave the Boston Celtics totally discombobulated as they win
- 4:08Speaker 1: ninety one ninety and now New York on the road,
- 4:11Speaker 1: up two games to none, they have the lead. The
- 4:14Speaker 1: upstart underdog slim pickings of the Knickerbockers in the Eastern Conference,
- 4:19Speaker 1: Semi found the Jalen Brunson didn't play all that well,
- 4:21Speaker 1: he only had seventeen points. But New York with Jalen
- 4:25Speaker 1: Brunson out there, he made a couple of foul shots
- 4:27Speaker 1: with twelve point seven seconds to go in the game,
- 4:30Speaker 1: so that left the score ninety one to ninety. Jason Tatum,
- 4:34Speaker 1: mister all everything, mister I'm the greatest, all that stuff.
- 4:38Speaker 1: Jason Tatum then could not get to the rim, and
- 4:42Speaker 1: McHale Bridges came over there, he moved in, he batted
- 4:45Speaker 1: the ball away, a futile effort by Jason Tatum, rather pathetic,
- 4:50Speaker 1: and the Knickerbockers got it.
- 4:52Speaker 2: And that's it. That's all she wrote.
- 4:54Speaker 1: So Josh Hart twenty three points, Carl Anthony Towns Kitty
- 4:57Speaker 1: Kat the old Timberwolve with twenty one points, seventeen rebounds,
- 5:02Speaker 1: and a partridge in the pear tree for New York,
- 5:04Speaker 1: who will now host Game three in Midtown Manhattan, right
- 5:09Speaker 1: adjacent to Penn Station there on Saturday afternoon.
- 5:13Speaker 2: So let us discuss the question.
- 5:16Speaker 1: You know what, the story here is the better story
- 5:18Speaker 1: in the losing locker room. But the question is who
- 5:20Speaker 1: gets the biggest slices of the Celtics Boston cream pie here,
- 5:26Speaker 1: who gets the biggest slices of that? So I've got
- 5:29Speaker 1: Green Comet, Nobel Prize winner and Prince and we will
- 5:34Speaker 1: combine all of these things together and we are going
- 5:39Speaker 1: to make a delicious soft pretzel, which the Celtics got
- 5:42Speaker 1: twisted into.
- 5:44Speaker 2: In the fourth quarter.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Yet again, they got twisted into a delicious soft pretzel.
- 5:49Speaker 2: You can find out on the street. So a let's.
- 5:51Speaker 1: Start with the head of the fish. I was told
- 5:55Speaker 1: when I was younger that the fish rots from the
- 5:57Speaker 1: head Jason Tatum ding ding ding ding De Jason, Jason, Hey,
- 6:02Speaker 1: you know, I know you won your little championship last year,
- 6:05Speaker 1: but yeah, you still got to play this year. What
- 6:06Speaker 1: was that You're supposed to be the franchise player On
- 6:11Speaker 1: the final.
- 6:11Speaker 2: Possession, I'm gonna go back to that. So I don't
- 6:15Speaker 2: know that this can be understated.
- 6:18Speaker 1: The Knicks take a one point lead, and that Al
- 6:22Speaker 1: Horford came up to the top of the like the
- 6:25Speaker 1: three point line.
- 6:25Speaker 2: He said, a screen, Tatum is dribbling the ball.
- 6:28Speaker 1: So on the screen, I don't know if you noticed
- 6:30Speaker 1: this or not, but I jotted this down on my
- 6:32Speaker 1: little notesap.
- 6:33Speaker 2: On my phone.
- 6:33Speaker 1: So Horford sets the screen. There's two Knicks players there
- 6:37Speaker 1: on the screen. Tatum at this point after the screen
- 6:42Speaker 1: is now guarded by Mitchell Robinson, a taller player, a
- 6:46Speaker 1: lumbering big man, Mitchell Robinson with not a lot of
- 6:49Speaker 1: lateral movement. And so what did Jason Tatum do? Did
- 6:53Speaker 1: Jason Tatum zoom past Mitchell Robinson or did he fall
- 6:58Speaker 1: back and he eat take it easy jumper over Robinson? No,
- 7:03Speaker 1: he hesitated, he snoozed, and he losed as he failed
- 7:09Speaker 1: to even get a shot up And then mentioned mkil
- 7:11Speaker 1: Bridges came over and snatched the ball the way Tatum
- 7:15Speaker 1: was actually trying to pass the ball.
- 7:16Speaker 2: He's trying to pass the ball. You can't make this up.
- 7:20Speaker 1: So you have the two headliners on the Celtics, Jalen Brown,
- 7:24Speaker 1: who fetched the final play in game one, and now
- 7:27Speaker 1: Jason Tatum says, hold my beer and let me take
- 7:31Speaker 1: care of this right now. He failed to even get
- 7:32Speaker 1: a game winning shot. So both your star players, neither
- 7:34Speaker 1: one of them got the shot on the rim, or
- 7:38Speaker 1: even in Jenon Tatum's case, even get shot up at
- 7:40Speaker 1: all as time ran out. And on this night, when
- 7:44Speaker 1: the dust settle, Jason Tatum only had thirteen more points
- 7:48Speaker 1: than you and I had and we didn't play in
- 7:50Speaker 1: the game. He took nineteen shots, he missed fourteen of them.
- 7:54Speaker 1: And Jason Tatum was the green comet, the green comet
- 7:59Speaker 1: of vomit is what he was in this game. Overall,
- 8:02Speaker 1: Tatum two games in two games in to the second
- 8:06Speaker 1: round of the NBA Playoffs, Jason Tatum, your all everything player,
- 8:11Speaker 1: shooting twenty eight and a half percent from the floor
- 8:14Speaker 1: and even worse than that from three point range, but
- 8:17Speaker 1: twelve to forty two from the floor. And this was
- 8:20Speaker 1: a team wide infestation of suck for the Celtics, who
- 8:25Speaker 1: definitely sucked at a time he cannot suck. The Green
- 8:27Speaker 1: team went more than eight minutes without a field goal
- 8:32Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. More than eight minutes without a
- 8:36Speaker 1: field goal in the fourth quarter. They missed not one,
- 8:39Speaker 1: not two, not three, not four, not five, not six,
- 8:41Speaker 1: not seven, not eight, not nine, not ten, not eleven,
- 8:43Speaker 1: not too how about thirteen consecutive shots? And what was
- 8:49Speaker 1: the coach doing over there in the sidelines? No no, no, no, no, no, no,
- 8:54Speaker 1: no no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
- 8:56Speaker 2: Keep shooting bys. Yeah, thirteen consecutive misshots.
- 8:59Speaker 1: So is the series exposing cracks in the Boston Championship, Danna,
- 9:06Speaker 1: there's so many hack sports casters like to say, so
- 9:09Speaker 1: a thousand percent.
- 9:10Speaker 2: Right.
- 9:11Speaker 1: The dependence, the absolute dependence on the three ball is
- 9:15Speaker 1: at this point entering into ancient Egyptian territory. You know
- 9:21Speaker 1: that image that was left by the people that lived
- 9:25Speaker 1: in that time in the caves. They had the art
- 9:27Speaker 1: in the caves in Egypt, and there's the image of
- 9:30Speaker 1: the dragon eating its own tail. Sometimes it's a snake.
- 9:35Speaker 1: That's essentially the Celtics here, like they are a one
- 9:39Speaker 1: trick pony and they're okay with it. Right, it's a
- 9:42Speaker 1: self defeating style. You live by the three ball, you
- 9:44Speaker 1: die by the three ball.
- 9:45Speaker 2: Yeah, but they won last year, so you can't criticize them.
- 9:48Speaker 2: They won the championship last year.
- 9:50Speaker 1: You don't know basketball, that's what you're doing the Overnight
- 9:52Speaker 1: show on Calm Down.
- 9:54Speaker 2: All right, Well, it ain't last year, it's this year.
- 9:57Speaker 2: And what goes around comes around.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Right now, the man aint mathin as the Celtics, Holy Conoley,
- 10:05Speaker 1: how bad are they? They have now based on the
- 10:07Speaker 1: mat they have a twelve point five percent chance of
- 10:10Speaker 1: coming back and winning this series. That's the percentage chance
- 10:13Speaker 1: on teams that have come back losing the first two
- 10:16Speaker 1: games at home. But that does tell you what has happened,
- 10:19Speaker 1: not what's going to happen.
- 10:20Speaker 2: Now, page two, can.
- 10:22Speaker 1: You explain how Tom Thibodeau's Knickerbockers have spotted Boston twenty
- 10:28Speaker 1: point leads and then come back and won both games?
- 10:30Speaker 1: So I'm gonna follow the teachings of the Nobel Prize
- 10:35Speaker 1: winner died a few.
- 10:36Speaker 2: Years ago, Desmond to two.
- 10:39Speaker 1: You don't often hear Desmond Tutu's name on sports radio,
- 10:41Speaker 1: but he famously is quoted as saying there is only
- 10:44Speaker 1: one way to eat an elephant, a bite at a time.
- 10:47Speaker 1: The Celtics had a massive lead in both games New York.
- 10:52Speaker 2: What do they do? They whittled the lead.
- 10:54Speaker 1: Down in the second half, and they trimmed it down
- 10:59Speaker 1: to bite side portions. And the thing that I will
- 11:03Speaker 1: credit them unlike a team that I like that's gutless,
- 11:08Speaker 1: the Clippers or the spineless Denver Nuggets that gave up
- 11:12Speaker 1: in that game.
- 11:13Speaker 2: And okay, see more on that later, but there was
- 11:16Speaker 2: no white fight.
- 11:16Speaker 1: They were getting punched the Knicks, but they didn't tap out,
- 11:21Speaker 1: and so well, you're never supposed to tap out. It's
- 11:23Speaker 1: the playoff teams tap out all the time. The Knicks
- 11:26Speaker 1: kept on, kept on fighting, trucking, whatever you want to say.
- 11:30Speaker 1: They finished the race, and a perfect embodiment of the
- 11:33Speaker 1: Knicks coming back. Mckill Bridges, who was on his way
- 11:37Speaker 1: to being the villain. He was on his way to
- 11:40Speaker 1: being the villain, and then he turned out to be
- 11:42Speaker 1: the hero because he rewrote the story in the fourth quarter.
- 11:45Speaker 1: If you weren't watching the game, Bridges was not only
- 11:48Speaker 1: a basketball player. He was terrible for a three quarters.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Certainly offensively, he was terrible. He mid some plays defense,
- 11:54Speaker 1: He've been oh of eight from the floor. He had
- 11:56Speaker 1: a goose egg in the points category over the first
- 12:00Speaker 1: three quarters. And then he ends up scoring all of
- 12:02Speaker 1: his fourteen points in the fourth quarter. And so in
- 12:06Speaker 1: the end, now everyone's saying he's a Celtic, he's a
- 12:09Speaker 1: villain for the Celtic fans, but he was gonna be
- 12:11Speaker 1: a villain for the for the next the way he
- 12:13Speaker 1: was playing all right, Now, what is the anatomy of
- 12:17Speaker 1: the Boston Celtics choke job.
- 12:19Speaker 2: So there's some sound.
- 12:21Speaker 1: I have four sounds for the Celtics and how they
- 12:24Speaker 1: lost this game.
- 12:25Speaker 3: Boom wop bang doink.
- 12:29Speaker 1: That's the sound of the basketball missing the net.
- 12:32Speaker 3: Boom wop bang doink.
- 12:36Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 12:37Speaker 1: So they were up seven, Boston was up seventy three,
- 12:39Speaker 1: fifty three, and I jotted it was a little over
- 12:43Speaker 1: three minutes to go in the third quarter. So they're
- 12:46Speaker 1: up by twenty. From that point, you want to take
- 12:49Speaker 1: a guess. Take a guess what the Celtics shot the
- 12:54Speaker 1: rest of the game. So the final fifteen minutes and
- 12:57Speaker 1: twelve seconds, I went back, I looked at the score.
- 13:00Speaker 1: I did the Malord math on this. So the Celtics
- 13:03Speaker 1: took twenty eight shots over the final fifteen minutes and
- 13:08Speaker 1: twelve seconds. Of those twenty eight, how many did they miss?
- 13:15Speaker 3: Not make?
- 13:16Speaker 2: How many did they miss? Okay, got your answer, don't cheat.
- 13:21Speaker 1: The Celtics missed twenty three of twenty eight shots they shot. Somehow,
- 13:26Speaker 1: a professional basketball team, the reigning championship Pro Basketball in
- 13:30Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, in the final minutes of the third quarter,
- 13:32Speaker 1: shot seventeen point nine percent. Let me repeat that for
- 13:38Speaker 1: those of you A little slow because we're on at
- 13:40Speaker 1: night here. Seventeen point nine percent is the shooting percentage
- 13:46Speaker 1: for the C's in the final fifteen minutes, and Jalen
- 13:48Speaker 1: Brown took five shots in that stretch.
- 13:51Speaker 2: He did not score zero points.
- 13:53Speaker 1: Jason Tatum made one basket from the floor, Boston. How
- 13:57Speaker 1: about from three point rinch They took fourteen pre point
- 14:00Speaker 1: shots in the final fifteen minutes.
- 14:02Speaker 2: Of course they did, that's all they do, and they
- 14:05Speaker 2: missed twelve of them.
- 14:06Speaker 1: They shot actually worse from three point range than they
- 14:09Speaker 1: did from.
- 14:10Speaker 2: Two point range.
- 14:11Speaker 1: And anyway, two of fourteen from downtown for the Celtics,
- 14:16Speaker 1: who find themselves in a very very tough quagmire at
- 14:22Speaker 1: this point. All right, now, last word, So a couple
- 14:25Speaker 1: of you knuckleheads that listen to us in Boston on
- 14:28Speaker 1: the Sports Hub, and we thank you for that. You
- 14:31Speaker 1: requested that I comment on Joel Missoula. But in particular,
- 14:38Speaker 1: I guess there's.
- 14:38Speaker 2: A nickname, and I'm.
- 14:40Speaker 1: Gonna take your word for this, so hopefully you're not
- 14:42Speaker 1: lying to me, because if you're lying to me, I'm
- 14:44Speaker 1: gonna sound like a jacket. But two different people, as
- 14:46Speaker 1: far as I know, they know each other. They said, Hey,
- 14:49Speaker 1: I want to get you. You know, you got to talk
- 14:50Speaker 1: about this, apparently the popular afternoon shower in Boston, the
- 14:54Speaker 1: I guess it's the Felger and Mas Show.
- 14:55Speaker 2: They gave the nickname to Celtics coach Joe missou Love.
- 15:01Speaker 1: They said that his his nickname is JJ, after the
- 15:06Speaker 1: podcaster imposter Laker coach. Okay, so, uh that's that's I laughed.
- 15:13Speaker 1: I chuckled when I saw that. So does the comp
- 15:16Speaker 1: does the comp of Joe Missoula Celtic coach Joe Mozula
- 15:21Speaker 1: being like JJ Reddick hold Water? So I'm gonna nod yes,
- 15:28Speaker 1: although there is a qualifiers, like Reddick is the podcast
- 15:34Speaker 1: puppet for Lebron.
- 15:35Speaker 2: We know he's in over his head. You really know
- 15:38Speaker 2: what he's doing.
- 15:39Speaker 1: I think he proved that in the playoffs. Uh, he
- 15:41Speaker 1: had a meltdown. It was a full circus meltdown when
- 15:45Speaker 1: he was questioned and then the Lakers went out there
- 15:47Speaker 1: lost the final game, which was.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Just great, just great.
- 15:51Speaker 1: But Joe Missoula, on the other hand, or JJ, I guess,
- 15:54Speaker 1: as they're calling Joe Mossoula is living in the as
- 15:58Speaker 1: he says, the expected world, attacking the game analytically, which
- 16:03Speaker 1: tells you he's not really.
- 16:05Speaker 2: Coaching like coaching is.
- 16:06Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna mix in the analytics, but I'm also
- 16:09Speaker 1: gonna go by the field of the game.
- 16:11Speaker 2: There's no feel of the game.
- 16:13Speaker 1: I promise you Joe Mizula does not follow the feel
- 16:16Speaker 1: of the game. If Joe Mosula followed the field of
- 16:19Speaker 1: the game, the Celtics would not have played the way they.
- 16:22Speaker 2: Played, right and uh and then both both are arrogant.
- 16:29Speaker 1: Although you gotta understand here side by side, if you
- 16:34Speaker 1: look at these guys, you got Reddick who's next level right,
- 16:41Speaker 1: next level, temperamental and all that, and a lot of bacteria.
- 16:48Speaker 2: Around both of them. Now, is Joe Mozoula in any
- 16:51Speaker 2: danger of the Celtics lose this series?
- 16:52Speaker 1: No, because the entire organization this is how they want
- 16:57Speaker 1: to play. He is just a middle manager, sure, that
- 17:00Speaker 1: is all he is, Just like JJ Reddick is a
- 17:03Speaker 1: middle manager to Lebron and Lebron's coaching the team, and
- 17:07Speaker 1: JJ is pretending to be the coach and giving a
- 17:09Speaker 1: whole answers to the media. Joe Mozula is doing much
- 17:12Speaker 1: of the same thing, right, you know, in terms of
- 17:16Speaker 1: is Missoula. His confidence an asset or a liability for
- 17:21Speaker 1: the Celtics or right now it's a liability. But again,
- 17:24Speaker 1: I don't think he's in position to change anything. Like
- 17:27Speaker 1: he's a true believer in the dogma. He is a prince.
- 17:31Speaker 1: He's a partisan prince. He blindly follows the analytics. There's
- 17:35Speaker 1: no wiggle room and he's.
- 17:38Speaker 2: At the point.
- 17:39Speaker 1: And I didn't see much of the postgame news conference,
- 17:41Speaker 1: but he seems to be unwilling to even acknowledge that
- 17:44Speaker 1: there is an alternative way to play basketball. And if
- 17:47Speaker 1: anyone questions the way the Celtics play, he shames them.
- 17:53Speaker 3: Shame, shame, shame.
- 17:56Speaker 2: How dare you? What's wrong with you?
- 17:59Speaker 3: It is?
- 18:00Speaker 2: There's the Ben Malord Show. Hopefully nothing wrong with us.

- 21:41Speaker 1: guarantee is three weeks from today in Vancouver on that
- 21:44Speaker 1: Thursday night.
- 21:46Speaker 2: And the details there.
- 21:48Speaker 1: Were some details on the podcast, the Fifth Hour podcast
- 21:51Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago.
- 21:52Speaker 2: We'll post some stuff.
- 21:52Speaker 1: Online too and let you know, but we're gonna be
- 21:55Speaker 1: there in Vancouver coming up in three weeks. We're not
- 21:57Speaker 1: NBA playoffs right now, playoffs as the postseason continues here,
- 22:03Speaker 1: and the run of good games ended in the second
- 22:05Speaker 1: game as the Oklahoma City Thunder put the whammy on
- 22:10Speaker 1: the Denver Nuggets Man Milkman Mike and Colorado White. Since
- 22:14Speaker 1: it's fantastic opening monologue, finally in office training for my
- 22:19Speaker 1: new position this week, and having you still in my ears,
- 22:22Speaker 1: making the night feel better unlike the debacle of a
- 22:25Speaker 1: Nuggets performance, Jeff bro save yourself and do not call
- 22:30Speaker 1: inexcusable performance. You're talking about course, Jeff and Denver, who
- 22:34Speaker 1: has become the face of the Denver Nuggets on this
- 22:36Speaker 1: show and has been a loud and pompous and all
- 22:42Speaker 1: of those things. Jeff and Denver. Now Milkman Mike. I'm
- 22:46Speaker 1: concerned here you said in office training. Does that mean
- 22:50Speaker 1: you will no longer be the Milkman? Are we gonna
- 22:53Speaker 1: lose Milkman Mike as a live listener? Are you gonna
- 22:55Speaker 1: go to the dreaded day shift because I don't know
- 22:58Speaker 1: if I can handle it?
- 23:00Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 23:00Speaker 1: Mark and Queens via Arlington, Texas says, let him play coach,
- 23:06Speaker 1: Joe Missoula nice clock and game management. Wow, setting basketball
- 23:11Speaker 1: back decades. Well, no, if he said basketball back to
- 23:16Speaker 1: a different ear they would have won the game. Man
- 23:19Speaker 1: uh Shane in Des Moines says, this kid Charlie in
- 23:23Speaker 1: Dallas is no Charlie in San Antonio. He says, I
- 23:30Speaker 1: missed that guy. He had a child around the same
- 23:33Speaker 1: time I had my youngest and disappeared. Yes, yeah, that
- 23:37Speaker 1: goes two ways. When when guys end up having a
- 23:40Speaker 1: family and they're overnight listeners, they either listen more because
- 23:44Speaker 1: the kids off puking and pooping in the middle of
- 23:47Speaker 1: the night, or they never listen again they feel like
- 23:50Speaker 1: they can't listen.
- 23:51Speaker 2: At night because they had a kid.
- 23:53Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no there's no middle ground on that Berner account.
- 23:56Speaker 2: The number one Ben Maller Berner says, good opening monologue. Men,
- 24:01Speaker 2: just checking in. I'm currently driving through Valley Head, Alabama,
- 24:06Speaker 2: delivering the Pottsville, Pennsylvania.
- 24:09Speaker 1: Not out the late night shift, so he says, And
- 24:15Speaker 1: he did send a photo which appears to be his GPS.
- 24:19Speaker 1: I've never heard of that time. Anyone heard of that time?
- 24:22Speaker 1: Valley Head, Alabama, I've never No, definitely not, but it
- 24:26Speaker 1: sounds like the head of a valley, so it might
- 24:29Speaker 1: be nice. That's a tremendous analysis there. It's in northern Alabama.
- 24:34Speaker 1: Fun facts about.
- 24:35Speaker 2: It as of mallor fun fact The population in Valley Head, Alabama.
- 24:44Speaker 2: What do you think the population? Well, we'll go around
- 24:46Speaker 2: the room. We do around robin. We like doing round robins,
- 24:48Speaker 2: go around the room. Lo rain.
- 24:49Speaker 1: How many people you think think live in Valley Head, Alabama.
- 24:54Speaker 2: Well, let me think you're very good. You're very good
- 24:57Speaker 2: with the math. By the way, thank you, thank you.
- 25:00Speaker 1: Hometown Rosberg only has twenty three thousand people, and that's
- 25:03Speaker 1: pretty small.
- 25:04Speaker 4: But this sounds even smaller. So I'm gonna go with
- 25:08Speaker 4: thirteen thousand.
- 25:10Speaker 2: Thirteen thousand, Okay, thirteen thousand people. That is the answer.
- 25:13Speaker 1: And again this is the number one burner account the
- 25:15Speaker 1: Ben Mountains. Number not number two, not number three, not
- 25:19Speaker 1: number four, number one driving through Valleyhead.
- 25:21Speaker 2: Alabama in his big rig. Right now, lead a lap.
- 25:23Speaker 2: Take a guess how many people live in Valley Head,
- 25:26Speaker 2: Alabama according to the twenty twenty census. I'm in twenty
- 25:29Speaker 2: twenty census. I'm gonna say.
- 25:31Speaker 1: They haven't had another census is twenty they're every well,
- 25:35Speaker 1: I guess I guess they have actually, but this is
- 25:37Speaker 1: that's the last census where.
- 25:38Speaker 2: We have the numbers. How about that.
- 25:40Speaker 3: Let's say.
- 25:43Speaker 2: Thirty five hundred. Okay, thirty five hundred, well, showcase, Showdad rules.
- 25:48Speaker 2: Unfortunately you both lose the population five hundred and seventy seven.
- 25:55Speaker 2: Five hundred and seventy seven. Now that's small that's small
- 25:59Speaker 2: town living. And now that I look it up, they've
- 26:01Speaker 2: gained thirteen people. They're up to five ninety. So congrats
- 26:04Speaker 2: to Valide with those extra thirteen. You think there's a
- 26:06Speaker 2: Walmart there? Probably not?
- 26:08Speaker 1: Probably not, Yeah, Sheriff bart writes, In says he's excited
- 26:15Speaker 1: about the way they all work. Okay, they all work
- 26:18Speaker 1: in the Walmart. Very funny Bill Miller. He sent the
- 26:21Speaker 1: Bill Miller. A lot of people have been sending the
- 26:23Speaker 1: Bill Miller Barbecue, which should be a sponsor of this show.
- 26:26Speaker 1: I don't understand how they're not a sponsor.
- 26:28Speaker 2: That's a bad job by them, as missed opportunity by
- 26:31Speaker 2: Bill Miller Barbecue. They should absolutely be a sponsor.
- 26:34Speaker 1: Spocks Weed rights in from the Oregon Trail says, I'm
- 26:39Speaker 1: not sure how great the Mall monologue was tonight, but
- 26:41Speaker 1: I found the pummeling of the Celtics to be delicious, delightful,
- 26:45Speaker 1: and delectable. Hat tip dear God, it's good the late
- 26:50Speaker 1: great Brian Wheeler wheels. Oh man, nobody quite did it
- 26:55Speaker 1: like Brian Wheeler as a play by play guy outstanding.
- 26:58Speaker 1: Supermarket Steve says, let him play. Joe is a great nickname.
- 27:01Speaker 1: In fact, when the Celtics had their final play the
- 27:04Speaker 1: announcer even said, Joe is gonna let him play. That's
- 27:07Speaker 1: what he does. That is what he does. Yeah, exactly,
- 27:12Speaker 1: all right, what else do we have? That's the page down?
- 27:16Speaker 1: Super Marcus Steve says he's upset with the mentions I
- 27:20Speaker 1: made of the Clippers. He says, it's my fault. This
- 27:25Speaker 1: is great, this, this this dink. Super Marcus Steve says
- 27:29Speaker 1: it's my fault because I didn't hold them accountable before
- 27:34Speaker 1: they got knocked out of the playoffs.
- 27:35Speaker 2: Yes, he says.
- 27:37Speaker 1: He says that my monologues did them in, says super Marit. Well,
- 27:43Speaker 1: I am very powerful, I'm Nomini present, I'm the oracle
- 27:46Speaker 1: of sports talk, so it is obvious that my commentary
- 27:50Speaker 1: affects the outcome of these games.
- 27:53Speaker 2: You I wish I could curse, I can't. I can't curse.
- 27:56Speaker 1: Yes, So that just tells you that there's selective listening.
- 27:59Speaker 1: By Supermarket Steve. As I did a monologue before the
- 28:04Speaker 1: playoffs about James Harden.
- 28:05Speaker 2: He vanished ten percent of the time. Playoff Harden is
- 28:08Speaker 2: a thing. I gave the numbers on it. Ten percent
- 28:11Speaker 2: of the time he vanishes. I talked about.
- 28:13Speaker 1: Kawhi Leonard getting hurt. But I guess you weren't listening,
- 28:15Speaker 1: Supermarket Steve. Maybe you should go to.
- 28:17Speaker 2: An ear doctor. You should go, you go hang out
- 28:19Speaker 2: and an ear doctor.
- 28:20Speaker 1: How about that? Yeah, milkman Mike, good news. We'd like
- 28:23Speaker 1: to confirmed all the affiliates down the line. Milkman Mike
- 28:26Speaker 1: is not leaving the milk business.
- 28:28Speaker 2: He actually took a.
- 28:29Speaker 1: Promotion to route or root supervisor, so he'll still be
- 28:34Speaker 1: working the overnight shift, just not delivering every night.
- 28:38Speaker 2: All right. We didn't want to lose the milkman. I
- 28:40Speaker 2: mean we can't. We can't. You cannot lose the milk.
- 28:43Speaker 2: Cannot do it. Let's go to the phones. Let's see
- 28:46Speaker 2: any meanie mighty mo. Let's go to Liam in the Commonwealth. Liam.
- 28:50Speaker 2: Welcome on, you are on the Ben Maler Show. What's
- 28:52Speaker 2: going on? Liam?
- 28:53Speaker 3: Hey?
- 28:54Speaker 2: Ben?
- 28:54Speaker 5: How are we doing? The first time? Long time? A
- 28:56Speaker 5: long time? First time to be honest. Yeah, So I
- 29:00Speaker 5: just want to say, man, I don't know Watson. That
- 29:02Speaker 5: last player the other game, Tatum, he looked like when
- 29:05Speaker 5: you let that, like you know, special kid join in
- 29:08Speaker 5: on the pickup game for like you know, the last
- 29:09Speaker 5: play to make it still special, and then he just
- 29:11Speaker 5: does some dumb stuff and.
- 29:14Speaker 6: I don't know if he was going to do his mind.
- 29:16Speaker 5: I know Missoula let him play, but they don't play
- 29:19Speaker 5: top of ball, like you know, they don't want to shoot.
- 29:21Speaker 5: They got the big guys, but why are they not
- 29:23Speaker 5: attacking the rim? Like what do you think they're gonna
- 29:25Speaker 5: do with for zingers?
- 29:28Speaker 2: Well, what do you I mean, he can't he's not
- 29:30Speaker 2: helping them. So I don't know what are you gonna do?
- 29:32Speaker 2: You shut him down or are you gonna play a
- 29:34Speaker 2: little bit and not really do anything? I mean the.
- 29:36Speaker 1: Tatum he's so he was so passive. He was matched
- 29:41Speaker 1: up with Mitchell Robinson. You can't, right, you tell me
- 29:44Speaker 1: you can't blow past Robinson, or at least if you
- 29:47Speaker 1: can't blow past him, fall back and in a jump shot.
- 29:50Speaker 5: Easy, like he had that little heavy on him in
- 29:53Speaker 5: the beginning, and I was like, oooh, he got this.
- 29:55Speaker 5: This is game right here. Then I don't know what
- 29:57Speaker 5: he did. He tried to like, you.
- 29:59Speaker 3: Know, you wanted to run to the side, and.
- 30:01Speaker 5: Then last second, you know, decided to do that little
- 30:03Speaker 5: want to be Colby saying rust in peace. But like
- 30:06Speaker 5: I thought, it was just really whack.
- 30:07Speaker 2: You know.
- 30:08Speaker 5: I still say, you know, Celtic and six and let
- 30:11Speaker 5: me let me guess you were.
- 30:12Speaker 2: You were saying Celtics and four before the series.
- 30:14Speaker 1: Now you then you went to five, and now you're
- 30:16Speaker 1: at six, and then after Saturday you'll be seven, right,
- 30:19Speaker 1: you'll be at seven.
- 30:20Speaker 3: You know I was.
- 30:21Speaker 5: I was in Central I was in Central Park this
- 30:23Speaker 5: past weekend and I was, let everyone know four and
- 30:26Speaker 5: now you know, forggin, I feel.
- 30:28Speaker 2: Bad now here.
- 30:29Speaker 1: Well that's all right, Well you just looking at it
- 30:31Speaker 1: this way, Liam, whoever you told that to whatever, Nick
- 30:34Speaker 1: fans are smiling thinking about how stupid you look.
- 30:36Speaker 2: So they're they're happy because of you. So yeah, all right,
- 30:39Speaker 2: thank you, all right, go away. There's Liam here and
- 30:41Speaker 2: the commy wealth. I'm talking about Tatum.
- 30:45Speaker 1: His numbers are cringeworthy, for I know it's only two
- 30:50Speaker 1: games and who cares? Well, okay again, I mentioned twenty
- 30:54Speaker 1: eight percent shooting he's twenty five percent from three point range.
- 30:57Speaker 1: He has eight turnovers, and the Celtics have blown two
- 31:02Speaker 1: twenty point leads, not one two.
- 31:06Speaker 2: That's hard to do back to back in belly to
- 31:09Speaker 2: belly at Home.
- 31:11Speaker 1: Did look like there were a lot of Nick fans
- 31:13Speaker 1: at the game in Boston, and that actually is what
- 31:16Speaker 1: we wanted to talk about here because the playground for
- 31:20Speaker 1: the rich the playground for the rich. So the ticket
- 31:26Speaker 1: prices in Boston were pretty high. However, for Game three
- 31:33Speaker 1: at Madison Square Garden on a Saturday afternoon in New
- 31:37Speaker 1: York City, it is estimated on the secondary market that
- 31:42Speaker 1: some of those high fallutin Wall Street people are going
- 31:47Speaker 1: to pay as much as over one hundred thousand dollars
- 31:53Speaker 1: to get in to watch Game three. Not a closeout game,
- 31:57Speaker 1: not a closeout game, just Game three. Even if the
- 32:01Speaker 1: Knicks win, the series is not over. But the record
- 32:04Speaker 1: amount for ticket prices to watch Game three at Madison
- 32:08Speaker 1: Square Garden on Saturday, there was a story that has
- 32:12Speaker 1: gone viable here the Knicks one hundred and eight thousand,
- 32:15Speaker 1: but for two tickets, so it's not per tickets fifty
- 32:18Speaker 1: what's the math on the fifty four thousand per ticket.
- 32:22Speaker 3: And do you want me to check your math on that?
- 32:25Speaker 3: Ben No.
- 32:28Speaker 2: Eight thousand divided by Is that after taxes? Though? Is
- 32:32Speaker 2: that after taxes?
- 32:33Speaker 1: Do we know now the Knicks always give those like
- 32:36Speaker 1: Spike Lee and those guys get free tickets.
- 32:39Speaker 2: They This is I haven't told for years. The Knicks
- 32:42Speaker 2: give the celebrities in New York.
- 32:43Speaker 1: The people can actually afford to buy the tickets, they
- 32:46Speaker 1: give them free. They have celebrity row. And then the
- 32:51Speaker 1: key is they show them on the scoreboard that they're
- 32:53Speaker 1: allowed to brag that they have all these famous a
- 32:56Speaker 1: holes that go to the games and they give.
- 32:58Speaker 2: Them free tickets. Do you think Morgan will barfall over
- 33:01Speaker 2: the court on Saturday? Do you think he'll do that?
- 33:05Speaker 2: What are the odds on that? What are the odds
- 33:06Speaker 2: that Tracy Morgan rides with the vomit comment right there halftime?
- 33:14Speaker 1: I would I ever want to pay that much to
- 33:17Speaker 1: go to a game, even if I had the money,
- 33:21Speaker 1: I really don't think I would want to.
- 33:23Speaker 2: I mean I don't.
- 33:25Speaker 1: I don't think I would want to spend that amount
- 33:26Speaker 1: of money to go to a single sporting event, certainly
- 33:30Speaker 1: not one.
- 33:30Speaker 2: In the second round of the playoffs. But that shows
- 33:34Speaker 2: you there's.
- 33:34Speaker 1: Still a lot of people, a lot of people in
- 33:37Speaker 1: New York that have disposable income. They have more money
- 33:41Speaker 1: than they know what to do. If you're gonna spend
- 33:43Speaker 1: over fifty thousand per ticket to see a second round
- 33:47Speaker 1: NBA Playoff game, you're doing okay, you're doing pretty good.
- 33:52Speaker 2: Let's go back to the phones and see who do
- 33:54Speaker 2: we have here? Eeny meany, miney mo.
