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

• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Your peace signed Game number two now s GA for
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: ok C. All right, that was the matchup. So yet
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: he had the MVP. It is hard to believe that
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: he's not gonna win the MVP. Shaw Jogis Alexander and
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City looking to avoid the embarrassment of losing at
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: home again and trying to even things up with the
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Jokers Denver Nuggus. This was the set up here. It
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: was expected to be a competitive game. I don't know
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: if you saw it, good news. If you missed it,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: you are in a better situation than me. He didn't
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: miss anything. Holy Toledo. What a terrible game in terms
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: of competition. So he had Shay Jogis Alexander who had
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: thirty four points, and then play as many minutes as
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: you and I did in the fourth quarter. He only
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: played three quarters. The reason he only played three quarters
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: is because the thunder put the whammie on Denver. A
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: revenge performance. OKC set a league record and wins one
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: forty nine to one ZHO six. Yes, let me repeat
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: that they won by forty three points over the Denver
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: basketball team and now the Western Conference semi finals tied
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: up at one game apiece. How lopsided was it? Thanks
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: for asking. Oklahoma City set an NBA postseason record for
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: first half points with eighty seven. They put up eighty
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: seven points in twenty four minutes. That broke the record
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: of eighty six eighty six points. They probably think that
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: record was probably set back in the eighties. No, it
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: was said within the last ten years, back in twenty seventeen,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: which seems like it's a lot closer than ten years ago.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: But June of twenty seventeen, the Cleveland Cadavers against the
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: Golden State Warriors in Game four of the NBA Finals.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: But eighty seven points a new record for a playoff
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: game for Oklahoma City. The Thunder led by as many
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: as forty nine points forty nine point lead in a
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: second round playoff game. So let us discuss toss up
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: question bigger story the Thunders historic offensive explosion or the
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: Nuggets complete and total collapse. So my observations on this,
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: I've got quantum, leap, porta potty, and liberty, and we
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we are
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: going to have a lick your wounds party, which I
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: think is what they're doing in Denver. They're licking their wounds.
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: The better story, almost always, all right, number one story
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: is in the losing locker room. This was a biblical beatdown,
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Biblical beatdown. This was Goliath versus you know who, and
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: Goliath won. This was a Goliath win Oklahoma City in
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: a domination situation across the board. Now there was a
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: little bit of funny business. We're gonna get to that
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: in a minute. And we didn't watch the second half.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: We made the editorial decision at halftime. We watched Charles
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Barkley with Ernie Johnson, Kenny Smith and Shaquille O'Neal, and
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: then when halftime ended, we turned the game off and
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: then we went back to it on the post game.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: So we did not watch the second half, and so
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: we'll focus on the first half. If you if you
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: watched like us, like we were watching the first half,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that my eyeballs moving back and forth
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: at the television put more of an effort into the
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: game than Denver did. How bad was it? It was
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: so bad? Thanks for asking. The kolea jokicch and the
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Nuggets underwent a quantum leap, a metamorphosis in this game.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: They became bullfighters. And if you've ever been to a
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: bullfight or seen one on television, they were the matador
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: Oley Oley o lay olay on defense, lackluster snagnet Oklahoma City.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: It was. It was so ridiculous. At one point it
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: looked like you were watching the old Harlem Globe Trotters
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: from back in the day. They shot almost sixty percent
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: okase did in the first half of that game. They
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: won all the haf of the Hustle staff, that's all
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: of them. As Jill Gis Alexander was slicing and dicing.
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: You look at the points of the paint, second chance points,
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: fast break points, the rebounds, everything every the fifty to
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: fifty balls, the raffle balls, all that stuff all right now,
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: Page two. So how do the Joker and the Nuggets
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: overcome this absolute stink bomb in Oka? See? And it
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: was a stink bomb. This was flatulence in the air everywhere.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: And yeah, so you go to the porta potty and
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: you take the wisdom of Eagles Super Bowl winning quarterback
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, who famously said after an absolute dud against
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: the Cowboys, he said, when you take your deuce, you
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: don't sit there and look at it. You flush it
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: and you move on. Now, it's very hard to flush
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: in a porta potty, very hard to flush. Every time
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: I've gone to a porta potty, things are stacked on
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: top of each other, if you know what I mean.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: But it's really how you react. I mean, we are
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: looking at a best of five series if my malor
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: math is correct, and Denver does now have home court
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: advantage over Kyriees Oklahoma City Thunder. That's the guy that
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: we know who loves the Thunder and has interacted with
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: the show. Now, why couldn't these Nuggets, these Nuggets guys
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: have shown up and played like they did in the
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: game on Wednesday night. Why couldn't they have played like
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: that in Game seven against the Clippers, Right Denver, they
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: were huffing and puffing as they were out there. It
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: looked like they had not one, not two, not three,
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: not four, but five James Harden out on the court.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: There's a James Harden there there's a James Harden there.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: There's a James Harden over there. There's a James Harden
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: over there. Everywhere's James Harden. Playoff Harden everywhere you look,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: playoff Harden everywhere. All right, final point. Now, let's get
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: to the Komodo dragon in the room if you will.
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: If you didn't see this game, you probably don't know
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: where I'm going with this. The official became part of
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: the story. So well, it doesn't matter that Nuggets were
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: down by forty nine points. Oklahoma City won by forty
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: three points. It doesn't matter. But I've got a talk
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: show to do, so to me, it matters. Scott Foster
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: who had been out with a calf injury and not
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: officiating game I think since back in March, so he
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: was out, but he was the crew chief Scott Foster
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: for game number two. So Scott Foster was out his
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: first playoff game of twenty twenty five. Now, Internet investigators
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: believe the NBA assigned Scott Foster to this game to
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: ensure that Oklahoma City would tie this series up. So
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: where are you at on this one? Again? Internet salus
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: believe they've uncracked the code that the NBA purposely put
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Scott Foster out there to make sure that Oklahoma City
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: tied up the series. So on this one my reaction,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: I have a cheshire Cat smile on my face right
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: now from ear to ear, I just do. Scott Foster
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: is like the last of the Mohicans. I grew up
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: in my wheelhouse. In my era, there was the shady referee.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: Typically in baseball. The last real shady umpire was Angel Hernandez,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: and Angel Hernandez is no longer un Baseball finally was
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: able to force him out. And the NFL's had a
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: few officials over the years that you thought there might
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: be some something going on there, but not really now.
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: And then you look at basketball and you've got Scott Foster,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: the last one standing, the last one left. It's the
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: twilight zone. All the other crooked officials have either died off,
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: or retired or been fired. But you've got Scott Foster,
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: who was Buddies if I'm not miss and as I
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: understand it, with Tim Donahey who was fixing NBA games
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: back in the day. So you got Scott Foster will
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: get many people think is involved in some funny business
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: and a lot of the belief is that he was
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: there as a secret agent for Oklahoma City. Are you
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: buying any of this? No, the NBA would never fix
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: any games. We know the games have been doctored with again,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: Tim Donnie. So to me, this is a liberty story.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: A liberty story. When the legend becomes the fact, you
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: print the legend. The man who shot Liberty Bounce an
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: old movie in Hollywood, and it's true. When the legend
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: becomes the fact, you print the legend. And the Nuggets, now,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna sit here and say they played well.
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: They didn't play well, but they were swimming against the
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: tide the early part of the game. Hey, the early
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: part of the game that the tide was the tempo
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: set by the officials. It did appear that the officiating
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: crew who favored Oklahoma City. Let me explain, early on
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: in the game, you had some early soft foul calls
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: on Denver, in particular Nakoli Jokic, who's always complaining and
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: vetching the referees. But it did look like some of
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: those calls early on were we're not kosher and so,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: and then it appeared that the Oklahoma City team was
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: been giving leeway. They were giving leeway, the benefit of
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: the doubt, and that they were able to play a
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: little a little spic here, shall we say, right, moving screens,
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: hacking yokics, things like that. Now, before you dismissed this,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: oh you're just an overnight conspiracy guy. What do you know?
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: A right, let me put my tinfoil hat on and
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: go through the numbers on this. So Scott Foster has
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: officiated over sixteen hundred regular season games. He has worked
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: over two hundred and forty playoff games. He's done twenty
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: NBA finals. He is the, if not the most, he's
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: near the very top most experienced referees. Do you know
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: what Scott Foster's nickname is in basketball? Do you know
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: what his nickname is? No, his nickname is the Extender.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: Why is he known as the Extender? It's kind of
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: like this old TV show, The A Team back in
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: the day, and they've made some remakes of that. I
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: think they made a movie a few years back. But
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: the A Team and their whole mantra, right, they were
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: a crack commando unit, the A Team, and they gave
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: this whole rant. You know, they were soldiers of fortune.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: They say, if you have a problem, if you have
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: an issue, and you've got that problem and no one
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: can help you. Right, you have a problem. No one
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: else can help you, And if you can find them,
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: maybe you can can hire the eight team in the NBA.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: If you've got a series that you want to make
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: sure it's a close series and it's extended for television
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: ratings purposes, who you gonna call. You're gonna call your
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: version of the A team, the extender, like a mafioso,
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: name the extender Scott Foster, who's often been associated with
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: games where the trailing team wins to extend the series,
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: thus the nickname the Extender, often with his own proprietary
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: blend of controversy where he's involved in some controversial foul
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: calls or technical fouls or whatever. Now I went back
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: and I looked at the numbers, because why not. The
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: data shows that home teams win over sixty percent of
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: the games he officiates, and say, well, that's kind of
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: within the margin of error in terms of generally the
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: home team usually wins more than the road team, So
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: does that prove anything? But then you have to go
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: on a game by game basis and say, okay, what
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: about in playoff series. When he's officiating and it's the
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: team that's trailing, does that team win? And I don't
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: have those numbers. I haven't gone that deep down the
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: rabbit hole. I will at some point on a slow day,
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: I will do that, but I will not do that
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: right now.
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: Right here we go, It's Maller. How about that?
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: I think you're older than that, Ben.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: This is one big Ben gets grilled Lorraine. That was
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: on the air, Lorraine, Wait a.
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: While, Ben, Terry Yes, Terry Hill recently listened to his
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: top five current quarterbacks, including Mahomes, Burrow Allan Lamar Jackson,
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: and an even Baker Mayfield, notably.
• 30:48
  Speaker 6: Leaving off his own quarterback to uh, is it a problem?
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: Yes, it is a massive problem, Tyreek Hill. He wants
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: to be traded to me. The better story, though, the
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: is he had surgery on his wrist. Did you see
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: what he was eating in the hospital.
• 31:02
  Speaker 6: What was that?
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: Chick fil a? That's what I would eat in the hospital.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: He had somebody delivered chick fil a. He was in
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: the hospital bed. He just had an operation and he
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: was eating Chick fil A's a bit.
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: That's healthy fast food there, Ben.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: Well, sure, absolutely right next Ben.
• 31:17
  Speaker 5: Following the trade of Pickens to Dallas, the Steelers are
• 31:19
  Speaker 5: rumored to be interested in Amari Cooper, Rogers former teammate
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: Ellen Lazard, and even Gave Davis, who was just released
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: by the Jags. Do any of these receivers move the
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: needle for you or mister Rogers.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Well, obviously Alan Lazard is a safety blanket for Aaron Rodgers,
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: so that would be the one. This is. I would
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: like to think the Steelers are not going to fall
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: for the same trap that the Jets did and just
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: bring a bunch of Rogers toadies to Pittsburgh. But otherwise,
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: why would you bring the lizard in? He's not that good?
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: Next quick bye.
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: We know the Draft is set into DC after Pittsburgh.
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: Baltimore's pushing to host it afterwards. Is charm City deserving
• 31:52
  Speaker 5: of this prestigious events?
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Yes, they should hold in Baltimore. They should hold the
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: draft at my friend's Sports with Coleman's home in Baltimore
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: in his front yard. They can hold it right there.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: There'll be fifteen people that will show up in Baltimore.
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: How did we do?
• 32:07
  Speaker 6: I'd go that's a pass.
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: I pass I n ron in Rochester.
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: I run. I'm a winner.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: I won the game. It's now time for time for honey, honey,
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: I can hurry ask bad Twitter said, is your questions
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: on Twitter?
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: And no way we go it's ask man. Your questions
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: are answers. Put our rest govey hour and now the
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: reader of the questions, but it will not sound like
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: he's reading.
• 32:35
  Speaker 6: We say hello to lead a lot good more than everybody.
• 32:40
  Speaker 5: A fitting first question for ask Ben from mister Donkey Sausage.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: Hi donkey, Uh, when was the.
• 32:47
  Speaker 6: Last time you went skiing or snowboarding?
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: God, it's been it's been many years. I do like
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: going to snow. The problem I have with the snow
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: and I can't get around this. If somebody can help
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: me out. I was actually just having this conversation with
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: my wife. We love going to the snow. The thing
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: we don't like is snow tires or the chains. Rather
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: putting the chains on the tires. I hate that worse right,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: So yeah, so that's why I don't do more snow
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: stuff because of the chains.
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I'll cancel a trip if I know I have
• 33:16
  Speaker 6: to put chains on, not gonna have.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Like one of my favorite places to
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: go in the world is the Sequoia National Forest with
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: the big redwoods there in Sequoia, and I love going
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: during the winter's winter wonderland. But it's just the chains
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: are such a nightmare. No, So what about you, Lorrain
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: or last time you went to the snow.
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: I haven't skied or snowboarded in a long time, but
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: I've entertubed recently.
• 33:42
  Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, this year two and a half years ago.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's so that's a long time. What about you
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: lead a lap?
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: Well, funny enough, I do got to ask you some
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: questions about Sequoia off the air, But last time was
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: actually with Coop, probably two years ago. We go to
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: a big bear, not ma'am, although mammoth is better, and
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: that's when I realized.
• 34:02
  Speaker 6: I was a lot better at snowboarding than Coop.
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: Oh really, okay, all right? Take that Coop taking strays here?
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: All right, what's next? What do we have here? It's
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: ask Ben.
• 34:12
  Speaker 5: Your questions are answers from at Lady Sideburns. If you
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: were forced to be caged up for a year and
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: with an animal at the zoo?
• 34:19
  Speaker 6: Which animal would you choose?
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: Kowala bear, m that's a good one. All they do
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: is they just they're high all the time from the eucalyptus, right, Yeah,
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: they're just kind of hang outs like I'm hanging out
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: with the callers. You know, it's the same vibe. What
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: what about I would also if I wasn't gonna get
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: eaten or they're not gonna spit on me the Komodo dragon,
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: which they have in San Diego. I was I saw
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: the Komodo dragon at the zoo. What about you, Lorena?
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: You know, I'm a very cuddly person. I would want
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: something that would cuddle with me. So I'm probably gonna
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: choose a lion.
• 34:52
