0:25
Speaker 2: o'clock right here in Altitude Sports Radio ninety two five. Motion.
0:28
Speaker 3: I'm curious about guys like you, and I'm curious about
0:34
Speaker 3: guys like Nelly.
0:37
Speaker 2: How much are you paying.
0:38
Speaker 3: Attention to the standings right now? Unless mcpickles has six
0:44
Speaker 3: goals in his last game, right or no, unless he
0:47
Speaker 3: has five goals in his last game and eight doesn't
0:49
Speaker 3: score at all, Nathan McKinnon will win the Rocket Rashard Trophy.
0:56
Speaker 3: And then you have to fly to Calgary, which is
0:59
Speaker 3: not far. But you get into the hotel, you know,
1:01
Speaker 3: sometime one thirty amish something like that. Then you gotta
1:06
Speaker 3: try to sleep, and then you gotta try to play again.
1:09
Speaker 3: What's my key to the game. I don't know, dude,
1:10
Speaker 3: I'm tired.
1:11
Speaker 2: I'm just rambling.
1:13
Speaker 3: Just getting eight Marty some points, man, get us some goals.
1:16
Speaker 3: Atus is there sends.
1:18
Speaker 4: It off for mccar He'll find m McKenna.
1:21
Speaker 2: Will look in, he will shoot a scar.
1:23
Speaker 4: There it is Marty dates the second assist. He's got
1:27
Speaker 4: a one hundred point season, and his teammates bob him
1:30
Speaker 4: on the near side. It took until sixteenth point nine
1:35
Speaker 4: seconds left in game eighty one, but he gets it.
1:39
Speaker 4: NAT's to McCart to McKinnon, who scores his fifty third
1:43
Speaker 4: and the Abs have put this one away.
1:46
Speaker 3: Well.
1:47
Speaker 2: After all that rambling from Moser, they finally did what
1:49
Speaker 2: he was talking about, which is get Marty his point,
1:52
Speaker 2: get McKinnon his goal, and all worked out perfectly with
1:56
Speaker 2: an empty netter at the end of the game. Mos
1:58
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's here or not. He got
2:00
Speaker 2: in at two forty seven am, so perhaps he's catching
2:04
Speaker 2: a little bit more shut eye. What's the key to
2:06
Speaker 2: the game?
2:07
Speaker 3: I don't know, dude.
2:07
Speaker 2: I'm Tarda'm just vic is off today as he is
2:11
Speaker 2: taking care of some things. But we'll await Moser's arrival again.
2:16
Speaker 2: What I think is amazing about last night is that
2:19
Speaker 2: you get this really great combination of you don't have
2:25
Speaker 2: anything to play for, neither does Calgary for that matter,
2:30
Speaker 2: You do with a win last night, tie your point,
2:34
Speaker 2: total from the year that you won the Cup in
2:36
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two at one hundred and nineteen. But it
2:39
Speaker 2: does feel a lot like, let's make sure our guys
2:43
Speaker 2: take care of their business in the same way that
2:45
Speaker 2: you let Joker play the final game of the regular
2:47
Speaker 2: season for the Nuggets when no other starter's played solely
2:52
Speaker 2: because of well, you've got some personal things on the line,
2:56
Speaker 2: so make sure you stay up for those. You get
3:00
Speaker 2: just a perfect little empty net Naate just handles the puck,
3:05
Speaker 2: fires it over to Kale Kale the Nate Nate finishes.
3:09
Speaker 2: Everybody's happy, everybody gets their their stuff. I thought it's
3:13
Speaker 2: awesome if you guys missed it earlier. The quote here
3:17
Speaker 2: or the stat from Brennan McNichols from the ABS. Martin
3:24
Speaker 2: Natius reaches one hundred points for the first time in
3:27
Speaker 2: his career, the ninth player in franchise history to reach
3:31
Speaker 2: that mark. Only three other times have two Avalanche players
3:37
Speaker 2: finished with one hundred points each in a season. McKinnon
3:43
Speaker 2: and Miko did it twice. They did it in twenty
3:45
Speaker 2: twenty three, twenty twenty four, and twenty twenty two to
3:49
Speaker 2: twenty twenty three. The only other pair was Sakic and
3:53
Speaker 2: Forsburg in the ninety five ninety six season, and now
3:57
Speaker 2: Nachus and McKinnon become the fourth in franch Chic history
4:00
Speaker 2: to do it. And it's fun to kind of look back.
4:03
Speaker 2: I am first to admit, when the Avs made the
4:11
Speaker 2: trade and gave way Miko Rantonin, it is so rare
4:17
Speaker 2: to see a team trade a player of the caliber
4:19
Speaker 2: of Miko, Knowing that Miko Rantonin is likely a guy
4:25
Speaker 2: if he were to play his whole career in Colorado,
4:28
Speaker 2: have his name in the rafters, be an all timer,
4:31
Speaker 2: all that different stuff. To trade somebody who is that
4:35
Speaker 2: caliber when you're in the middle of a championship window
4:39
Speaker 2: is crazy. And at the time I was confused. I
4:44
Speaker 2: know that they were going through contractual things. I just
4:47
Speaker 2: never thought for a god forsaken second that they'd even
4:52
Speaker 2: remotely entertain the idea of trading a player like that
4:57
Speaker 2: while they're in the place they're in. They make the
5:01
Speaker 2: move and in essence acquire a player that is of
5:09
Speaker 2: the same caliber as Miko Rantonin, that has a style
5:13
Speaker 2: of game that fits with him and McKinnon maybe better
5:18
Speaker 2: than Rantonin's dead. They're probably splitting hairs when you're making
5:22
Speaker 2: that comparison, But it's close, and not only that you
5:28
Speaker 2: get a guy like Jack Drury in a trade that
5:31
Speaker 2: opens up more cap space to acquire other people like
5:34
Speaker 2: It ends up being the entirely correct move in the
5:40
Speaker 2: long term. But I think that Martin Hius he's got
5:47
Speaker 2: some some proving to do in the postseason. We all
5:50
Speaker 2: kind of know that, but for the caliber of player
5:54
Speaker 2: that you've gotten in return, and I have no doubt
5:57
Speaker 2: that he will continue this great play heading into what
6:02
Speaker 2: I believe is going to be a Sunday and Tuesday matchup.
6:05
Speaker 2: We just got the full sort of slate for the
6:09
Speaker 2: Nuggets in the t Wolve series. The Nuggets are gonna
6:11
Speaker 2: be at Ballerina Saturday and Monday, then Monday the twenty seventh,
6:18
Speaker 2: if necessary for a Game five, and then May the second,
6:22
Speaker 2: if necessary for a Game seven against Minnesota. The only
6:26
Speaker 2: logical thing that now makes sense is whoever the Avs
6:29
Speaker 2: are going to play, which is still up in the air.
6:34
Speaker 2: They will do that, it has to be Sunday Tuesday,
6:38
Speaker 2: So you're gonna get Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, four
6:42
Speaker 2: straight days of playoff games. It feels like at Ball Arena. Now,
6:45
Speaker 2: the times on these games, if you remember, Denver is
6:51
Speaker 2: treated as if they are a team that plays in
6:53
Speaker 2: San Francisco. So on Saturday we get lucky, we get
6:59
Speaker 2: the game that's in the the little matinee at one
7:02
Speaker 2: thirty in the afternoon. The Monday game is scheduled to
7:06
Speaker 2: start at eight thirty, and then when they go to
7:10
Speaker 2: Minnesota it's Central time. It eases up a little bit
7:13
Speaker 2: that the Game three start time is seven thirty and
7:17
Speaker 2: Game four is six thirty, so we have the full
7:22
Speaker 2: schedule for them. But the only thing that makes sense
7:25
Speaker 2: here is that the Avs start their playoff series at
7:27
Speaker 2: Ball Arena on Sunday and have Game two on Tuesday. Now,
7:32
Speaker 2: who they play is a huge question. Here's what it
7:36
Speaker 2: looks like as of right now, all of these teams
7:40
Speaker 2: with one game left to play. The Edmonton Oilers are
7:45
Speaker 2: at ninety one points, Anaheim's at ninety, Utah's at ninety two.
7:52
Speaker 2: The Kings are at ninety as well, and I think
7:55
Speaker 2: that Utah is not in contention for that final wildcards,
8:00
Speaker 2: but I don't think they can move down because of
8:02
Speaker 2: tie breakers, So I think this is Oilers Ducks and
8:06
Speaker 2: Kings is what this comes down to. And the only
8:10
Speaker 2: way the Oilers drop to that is if they number
8:13
Speaker 2: one lose and both teams get a win between Anaheim
8:18
Speaker 2: and la I mean, most likely scenario, it's basically a
8:22
Speaker 2: two horse race between the Ducks and the Kings is
8:25
Speaker 2: what feels like it's gonna happen. And at this point,
8:31
Speaker 2: who knows who you want to play. Anaheim has been
8:34
Speaker 2: just straight up ridiculously awful to close the year. They
8:39
Speaker 2: have in the last one two, three, four, five, six, seven,
8:42
Speaker 2: eight nine games one one of them. That's it.
8:49
Speaker 3: Now.
8:49
Speaker 2: At the same time, the Kings, who have been playing better,
8:54
Speaker 2: they're seven to one and two in their last ten.
8:57
Speaker 2: They still only have twenty two regulation on the year.
9:01
Speaker 2: They have totaled as they did yesterday, getting another point
9:05
Speaker 2: by losing an overtime, that numbers up to twenty for
9:09
Speaker 2: them now on the year. Twenty out of ninety points
9:13
Speaker 2: this year, twenty of them have been racked up with
9:16
Speaker 2: overtime ls. They've gathered another nine from shootout losses. I mean,
9:25
Speaker 2: you're talking about a third of their points are coming
9:27
Speaker 2: from losses this season. It's not necessarily a team that
9:31
Speaker 2: would scare you, But that's sort of what the matchups
9:37
Speaker 2: look like for when this thing starts, likely on Sunday
9:40
Speaker 2: and game two on Tuesday. Texas says, you can't say
9:45
Speaker 2: entirely correct if they don't win the Cup talking about
9:47
Speaker 2: the trade with Miko in ages, Miko and Nate won
9:51
Speaker 2: a Cup. True, but I think there's a strong argument
9:57
Speaker 2: to be made that if you paid Miko the money
10:00
Speaker 2: that Dallas is even paying him, which I think that
10:02
Speaker 2: the Avs offered, because I think he's at twelve a
10:06
Speaker 2: year now, but he was asking the Avs for fourteen.
10:11
Speaker 2: Let's say that he got thirteen. I don't know, you
10:15
Speaker 2: don't have the flexibility to acquire some of the players
10:18
Speaker 2: that you've acquired. Nos Catri does not come back. I
10:23
Speaker 2: don't know. If you have the amount of money to
10:25
Speaker 2: go get a guy like bruck Nelson, you will become
10:28
Speaker 2: entirely dependent on your top core of players. And you
10:33
Speaker 2: know from the amount of times that we have talked
10:35
Speaker 2: to Bednar and we won't talk to him today, he's
10:38
Speaker 2: still recovering from having his face broken. So in his place,
10:43
Speaker 2: we're going to have Eric Johnson joining us at eight o'clock.
10:47
Speaker 2: The Rising Star of the worldwide leader, so he will
10:51
Speaker 2: join us at eight o'clock this morning instead of the coach.
10:54
Speaker 2: But we've talked to Bednar enough, or he says, when
10:57
Speaker 2: it comes to the playoffs, there is there's no substitute
11:01
Speaker 2: for depth. And I think the strongest argument that you
11:06
Speaker 2: could make to how the Avs won the Cup four
11:09
Speaker 2: years ago was that they were deeper than everybody else
11:14
Speaker 2: that they played. They trotted out their third and fourth
11:20
Speaker 2: lines that had Cogliano's on there and Darren Helms, and
11:24
Speaker 2: they beat the hell out of the other team because
11:26
Speaker 2: they just didn't have that. And I think you find
11:29
Speaker 2: yourself in a situation this year very similar to four
11:32
Speaker 2: years ago from that standpoint, and I think the only
11:35
Speaker 2: way that you get there is by being very judicious
11:41
Speaker 2: with who gets money and who doesn't, and having sort
11:43
Speaker 2: of hard lines in the sand, even for great players
11:46
Speaker 2: on this team. No, I've always said the biggest mistake
11:50
Speaker 2: I think Miko made in his negotiations here before they
11:53
Speaker 2: traded for Natures, he thought he was part of the
11:57
Speaker 2: blank Czech community that he was in the the Nathan
12:00
Speaker 2: McKinnon kill mccarr tier, Nathan McKinnon kill mccarr come up
12:06
Speaker 2: to the Avs. They say a number, they get the number.
12:10
Speaker 2: You don't negotiate with them. He thought he was in
12:12
Speaker 2: that and he wasn't. He was close, but not quite,
12:16
Speaker 2: and the Avs stuck to their guns. Make the trade.
12:20
Speaker 2: It allowed a couple of other things from a flexibility
12:22
Speaker 2: standpoint to come out, and now all of a sudden,
12:24
Speaker 2: you got a deep team again. I mean, Texas says
12:27
Speaker 2: the same situation as MPGA, exactly right. It is nothing
12:31
Speaker 2: against MPG the player. MPG the player helped you win
12:34
Speaker 2: a championship, but you would have been totally reliant on
12:41
Speaker 2: like a core four guys to do all the work
12:45
Speaker 2: for you, where it didn't allow what the Nuggets have
12:49
Speaker 2: this year, which is Tim Hardaway Junior and Bruce Brown
12:55
Speaker 2: and Valentiounis when you want to use them and a
12:57
Speaker 2: whole bunch of other stuff that you can throw into
12:59
Speaker 2: the mix. You don't want to be Dolly partoned, top heavy.
13:10
Speaker 2: You want to be you want to have that perfect
13:14
Speaker 2: hour glass faeah whatever. You know what I'm saying. You
13:17
Speaker 2: want to be even. You want to be able to
13:19
Speaker 2: trot out bench guys and know that they're gonna kick ass.
13:24
Speaker 2: It's the same thing that or the same way. I
13:30
Speaker 2: would say that the Thunder one the Thunder one, yes,
13:33
Speaker 2: because they have one of the top players in the world.
13:35
Speaker 2: That's a necessity if you want to win a chad,
13:38
Speaker 2: if you want to win a championship, for almost anybody,
13:43
Speaker 2: but having the depth to throw out there. I mean,
13:49
Speaker 2: the Oklahoma City Thunder have two guys named Jalen Williams
13:52
Speaker 2: and they're both good. That's always nice. But the Avs
13:58
Speaker 2: have navigated this in I think such a great way
14:03
Speaker 2: that at the end of the year you're focused kind
14:05
Speaker 2: of on getting guys a couple of milestones before the
14:07
Speaker 2: playoffs start. Now, I don't know what Thursday is gonna
14:10
Speaker 2: look like when they play tomorrow at the final game
14:11
Speaker 2: of the year. Literally nothing on the line. I think
14:14
Speaker 2: most of the milestones are taken care of already. This
14:16
Speaker 2: might be a game in which you sit McKennon down
14:19
Speaker 2: if he wants to. Now you can't. You can't sit everybody.
14:24
Speaker 2: But I'm telling you they're gonna have options heading into tomorrow.
14:30
Speaker 2: So three oh three five, four oh nine two five
14:33
Speaker 2: can listen to us anywhere in the world on that
14:35
Speaker 2: Altitude Sports Radio app but is powered by the Will
14:37
Speaker 2: Height Law Firm, Andrey Lauria is going to Willhpewins dot com.
14:40
Speaker 2: This Willheightwins dot com again. No Bednard eight o'clock, but
14:44
Speaker 2: we will have in his place Eric Johnson joining the program,
14:49
Speaker 2: So stay tuned for that stick around. I'm only all
14:51
Speaker 2: by myself for a moment. It's just a moment. We're
14:57
Speaker 2: waiting for Mosy. He's got to get some sleep. He
14:59
Speaker 2: got in a three o'clock in the morning yesterday. He's
15:02
Speaker 2: gonna be fine. Vick's off today. This happens. I did
15:09
Speaker 2: four hour shows in Lincoln, Nebraska in June. Okay, I
15:13
Speaker 2: know how to do this. It's just talking and let's
15:16
Speaker 2: continue to Eric Johnson will join us at eight o'clock
15:19
Speaker 2: this morning. One thing that I really noticed is and
15:25
Speaker 2: it struck me in a very very odd way. I
15:32
Speaker 2: have been not the nervous Nelly, Sorry Steve, but I
15:38
Speaker 2: have been a skeptic. I think is a more accurate
15:43
Speaker 2: way to put it on the Nuggets in what they
15:46
Speaker 2: can accomplish. And I have not been skeptical on whether
15:49
Speaker 2: they're good. I know they're good on paper. It's as
15:54
Speaker 2: good of a Nuggets roster as they've had, maybe ever,
16:01
Speaker 2: But there's a difference between having that and then behaving
16:06
Speaker 2: like that. The Oklahoma City Thunder have a really good
16:09
Speaker 2: roster and they behave that way. The Nuggets too often,
16:15
Speaker 2: I just think have it. They have. They've played up
16:22
Speaker 2: and down in competition. They've had a lot of moments
16:25
Speaker 2: where injuries have derailed maybe some momentum that they've gained.
16:31
Speaker 2: But I don't know what to expect from them when
16:34
Speaker 2: the postseason rolls along. I do think they'll get past Minnesota.
16:38
Speaker 2: I don't know anything beyond that. And what's really interesting
16:42
Speaker 2: for me to hear as my wife gets this new
16:45
Speaker 2: TV yesterday, so it's one of these fire TVs, and
16:47
Speaker 2: I gotta go out, and I got to log in
16:50
Speaker 2: all these apps and get the direct TV hooked up
16:53
Speaker 2: and all this different stuff. And the first thing that
16:55
Speaker 2: happens when I hook up this TV with direct TV
17:02
Speaker 2: is I turn on the dish and FS one is on,
17:10
Speaker 2: and I'm seeing First Things First with Nick Wright and
17:13
Speaker 2: Chris Broussard, and they're discussing the Nuggets in Minnesota Timberwolves matchup,
17:17
Speaker 2: and I'm hearing Chris Broussard say, yeah, I think the
17:19
Speaker 2: Nuggets are going to win, but the Tea Wolves are
17:23
Speaker 2: gonna pose a big problem for him, and then it's
17:26
Speaker 2: gonna be a battle. And I go, yeah, I think
17:27
Speaker 2: I largely agree with that, and then they go, what
17:30
Speaker 2: do you think, Nick, right? And he goes, I totally
17:33
Speaker 2: disagree with you, Brew And I was expecting him to
17:36
Speaker 2: say something along the lines of I think the Nuggets
17:40
Speaker 2: are in some trouble and I think that Minnesota wins
17:43
Speaker 2: this series. Do you know what he said? Nick Wright,
17:47
Speaker 2: of all people, said I would be shocked if the
17:52
Speaker 2: t Wolves won the series. He said, I would be
17:55
Speaker 2: as shocked as the Lakers pulling the upset in the
17:59
Speaker 2: first one against Houston, given what they're missing, and even
18:04
Speaker 2: I don't go that far with this series. He then
18:09
Speaker 2: went on to say that for the Nuggets to get
18:12
Speaker 2: to the NBA Finals, they would have to go through Minnesota,
18:15
Speaker 2: San Antonio and OKC And he said, and I think
18:19
Speaker 2: they can do it, which would be an all time
18:22
Speaker 2: historic run to a finals. And I had to question myself.
18:30
Speaker 2: I'm like the dude who has been public enemy number
18:33
Speaker 2: one in this town for years, and look he's come
18:36
Speaker 2: around on the Okich thing because he had to, because
18:39
Speaker 2: the Okic proved every doubt or out there wrong. So
18:46
Speaker 2: he's come around on this. But I was like, if
18:49
Speaker 2: that guy has this level of confidence in this team,
18:52
Speaker 2: then what am I missing? I was sitting myself my
19:01
Speaker 2: own internal dialogue, why do I feel the way that
19:04
Speaker 2: I do about the Nuggets? And I think the answer
19:08
Speaker 2: is I've watched them more closely than he has. But secondly,
19:15
Speaker 2: I haven't been able to witness this team at full strength,
19:19
Speaker 2: fully healthy all year, and the idea of having a
19:24
Speaker 2: grind in which this will not be a twenty game
19:27
Speaker 2: run to a championship. Let's just say that the Nuggets
19:30
Speaker 2: do win the title again this year, it's gonna take
19:34
Speaker 2: like twenty four Hell, it might take more than that.
19:38
Speaker 2: And I'm saying twenty four games out of an eighty
19:41
Speaker 2: two game season would be I mean, it's somewhere in
19:43
Speaker 2: the ballpark. Will call it thirty percent of the year.
19:48
Speaker 2: Take any thirty percent stretch of the season, any twenty
19:51
Speaker 2: four game stretch of the Nuggets season, and tell many
19:53
Speaker 2: how many guys have been missing from the lineup. That's
19:58
Speaker 2: my concern. It isn't even with the talent, it's not
20:02
Speaker 2: with roster construction. I think they've done a great job,
20:07
Speaker 2: but can they keep guys healthy? The only way the
20:10
Speaker 2: Nuggets get to a place where they are competing for
20:13
Speaker 2: a championship is if you tell me that this team
20:16
Speaker 2: is healthy all the way through. And I don't know.
20:20
Speaker 2: That's hard for me to believe. That's like saying to me, Hey,
20:23
Speaker 2: the Broncos running game, what do you feel about it?
20:26
Speaker 2: I feel great until JK. Dobbins inevitably gets hurt because
20:30
Speaker 2: that's what always happens to him. And whenever I say
20:34
Speaker 2: something like this, it sounds like you're denigrating the person.
20:37
Speaker 2: I'm not. It's no player's fault that they're heard. But
20:41
Speaker 2: I can't deny the fact that it is a likely
20:44
Speaker 2: reality in the world that I live in with the
20:46
Speaker 2: Nuggets right now is twenty four games to get to
20:49
Speaker 2: a championship again with this team mostly healthy is a
20:53
Speaker 2: foreign idea. It's not something that I can put full
20:58
Speaker 2: faith in, trust in, and so that's the difficulty that
21:03
Speaker 2: I'm having. It is not about the team. I'll give
21:06
Speaker 2: you a stat that I think is pretty mind blowing
21:09
Speaker 2: about what's different about this year's team than years past.
21:12
Speaker 2: Something they are doing better than they've ever done in
21:15
Speaker 2: the Jokich Era. I just gave you the numbers on
21:18
Speaker 2: Martin his Nathan McKinnon, the fourth pair and Avalanche history
21:24
Speaker 2: of players to each have one hundred points in a season.
21:27
Speaker 2: That's what they got last night off the empty netter
21:29
Speaker 2: with the dish from Natus to mccarr to McKinnon, who
21:33
Speaker 2: finished with the goal, gave Martin Chis one hundred points.
21:39
Speaker 2: They become outside of McKinnon and Miko and Sakic and Forsburg,
21:45
Speaker 2: the only other duo to do it. Do you know
21:49
Speaker 2: what the Nuggets have? They didn't have this when they
21:53
Speaker 2: won the title three years ago. In fact, they were
21:58
Speaker 2: league worst in this category. Here's the stat it's from
22:04
Speaker 2: Jake Coin, our guy Jay So. In regards to three pointers,
22:15
Speaker 2: there have been two different sets of teammates in NBA
22:18
Speaker 2: history to make two hundred and twenty threes each on
22:24
Speaker 2: forty percent or better shooting in the same season. Klay
22:30
Speaker 2: Thompson and Steph Curry did it six times. The only
22:34
Speaker 2: other duo to ever do that is Jamal Murray and
22:37
Speaker 2: Tim Hardley Jr. And that's for a guy coming off
22:41
Speaker 2: the bench. The Nuggets, even in their run to a title,
22:48
Speaker 2: we're not a three point shooting team, and I think
22:51
Speaker 2: we all can acknowledge it's sort of the ultimate equalizer
22:56
Speaker 2: when we talk about playoffs, and you can play a
23:01
Speaker 2: great game for forty eight minutes in the NBA playoffs
23:06
Speaker 2: and a hot run from three can ruin it all.
23:09
Speaker 2: How many times in the middle of the main thrust
23:18
Speaker 2: of the Warriors championship runs, would they be done fifteen
23:21
Speaker 2: points and you'd blink and they have a three point
23:23
Speaker 2: lead because Clay hit two in a row and then
23:25
Speaker 2: Steph hit three in a row, and then it was
23:27
Speaker 2: just like, all right, sorry, it's our game.
23:28
Speaker 3: Now.
23:30
Speaker 2: The Nuggets have the ability to do that if they
23:33
Speaker 2: want to. But this is not doubting the confidence of
23:39
Speaker 2: the roster of the Nuggets. It is fraying at my
23:43
Speaker 2: confidence of staying healthy for what's going to be now
23:48
Speaker 2: until mid June that I don't know, and I think
23:54
Speaker 2: the Nuggets all it takes is an injury or two.
23:57
Speaker 2: So those guys in the top six, seven, eight eyes
24:00
Speaker 2: in the rotation, and it can throw a lot of
24:02
Speaker 2: things out of whack because you don't you have a
24:05
Speaker 2: lot of depth. But it's guys who do a lot
24:08
Speaker 2: of things different, Like there's no replacing Aaron Gordon. You
24:15
Speaker 2: can kind of do it with Peyton Watson, but then
24:20
Speaker 2: there's no replacing Tim Hardaway Junior coming off the bench.
24:23
Speaker 2: There's obviously no replacing a joker Jamal even for what
24:28
Speaker 2: like Christian Brown does. I don't think there's a replacement
24:36
Speaker 2: for the style of play that he has. So it's
24:39
Speaker 2: just about injury. And I've said it before and I'll
24:42
Speaker 2: say one hundred more times here as the postseason goes along,
24:46
Speaker 2: the one thing that can hold the Nuggets back, I'm sorry,
24:51
Speaker 2: The one opportunity the Nuggets have to win a championship
24:54
Speaker 2: is if this roster stays healthy. That's the only way
24:57
Speaker 2: I see that happening. The only one thing that can
25:00
Speaker 2: derail the Abs from winning the Stanley Cup is injuries.
25:05
Speaker 2: It's different. Health gives the Nuggets an opportunity. Health is
25:12
Speaker 2: the only thing that can keep the Abs from winning.
25:16
Speaker 2: And those are two different sort of things. Texter says.
25:21
Speaker 2: Can tell me your thoughts on Strawther versus Christian on
25:24
Speaker 2: playing time. I think Julian is a much better three
25:27
Speaker 2: point shooter in instant offense, that's true. I think that
25:31
Speaker 2: Adaman is somebody who takes a lot from the book
25:36
Speaker 2: of Michael Malone. He will err on the side of
25:39
Speaker 2: better defense rather than better offense because their offense is
25:42
Speaker 2: not a problem. Now, I love Julian Strather, and I
25:48
Speaker 2: think if you need a boost, if you need a
25:56
Speaker 2: shot in the arm of knocking down couple of shots
26:00
Speaker 2: or hitting a float or getting inside the lane, I
26:03
Speaker 2: think Strather has to play some this postseason. I don't
26:07
Speaker 2: know how much, but he's got to play some. But
26:11
Speaker 2: your big sort of problem here is offense has never
26:18
Speaker 2: been an issue. You're one of the most efficient offenses
26:22
Speaker 2: in the history of the NBA. It's a matter of
26:26
Speaker 2: getting a stop, and that's where I think Julian is
26:30
Speaker 2: finding himself having a tough time getting on the floor.
26:34
Speaker 2: Christian is a trusted member of that defensive unit with
26:37
Speaker 2: the coaching staff. He does play hard on the defensive side,
26:43
Speaker 2: and I think they'll air on that side more often
26:45
Speaker 2: than they won't. Now, as far as the actual NBA playoffs,
26:49
Speaker 2: last night had to start to the playing games, I
26:54
Speaker 2: was pleasantly surprised that they were entertaining. Both of the
26:59
Speaker 2: games were I mean, you had an overtime thriller between
27:07
Speaker 2: the Heat and the Hornets and you had Portland going
27:10
Speaker 2: on the road to Phoenix and getting the win one
27:13
Speaker 2: fourteen to one to ten, and there were concerns like
27:17
Speaker 2: how hard are guys going to play in games like this?
27:22
Speaker 2: You know, the play in was kind of built to
27:24
Speaker 2: have that win or go home energy surrounding it, and
27:27
Speaker 2: I will say last night it had all of it.
27:30
Speaker 2: I thought the heat and Hornets was a great game. Now,
27:33
Speaker 2: LaMelo Leball was doing some dumb stuff, pulling down Bam
27:36
Speaker 2: out of bio. He leaves the game with an injury.
27:38
Speaker 2: He's I mean, if this is the regular season, you
27:43
Speaker 2: probably consider suspending LaMelo, But I don't know if you
27:45
Speaker 2: do that now in the postseason. But he did something
27:49
Speaker 2: stupid that was non basketball related that led directly to
27:53
Speaker 2: a guy leaving a game.
27:54
Speaker 5: Brett, maybe this is too TICKI tack, But if you
27:57
Speaker 5: win a play in tournament game, do you count that
27:59
Speaker 5: as a playoff win?
28:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's one of those Like if you're the first
28:04
Speaker 2: four in the NCAA tournament who just had that recently?
28:07
Speaker 2: By the way, was that see you? I wasn't see you.
28:11
Speaker 2: Just a couple of years ago. We play in they won,
28:13
Speaker 2: and then we're like, is that a play. Is that
28:15
Speaker 2: a tournament win or not? Right?
28:17
Speaker 5: And that's that's how I feel about this this play
28:19
Speaker 5: and the reason I ask is because the Sun's lost,
28:22
Speaker 5: but they still have it one more chance on Friday
28:25
Speaker 5: to play. I forget, I forget the seven, ten, eight nine.
28:31
Speaker 2: If you're seven, if you're seven to eight, you need
28:34
Speaker 2: to lose twice to be eliminated. So so Phoenix lost once.
28:39
Speaker 2: They'll now take on the winner of Golden State in
28:42
Speaker 2: LA who plays tonight, and then that game is winner gone.
28:45
Speaker 2: That's right.
28:46
Speaker 5: So as it stands right now, one of my favorite
28:50
Speaker 5: random stats in sports is that the Phoenix Suns have
28:53
Speaker 5: still not won a playoff game since Matt Ishbiez stole
28:57
Speaker 5: the ball from Nikole Jokich. She's that right, So they
29:00
Speaker 5: the Suns ended up winning that game because of that
29:02
Speaker 5: dumbass owner taking the ball from jogicch Like when that
29:05
Speaker 5: when that happens, Nuggets weren't gonna win that game. But
29:09
Speaker 5: from that point on, the Nuggets finished the series. And
29:12
Speaker 5: then the next time the Suns made it to the playoffs, yeah,
29:14
Speaker 5: they got swept and then they haven't been back. So
29:17
Speaker 5: I'm kind of rooting for them to lose in this
29:19
Speaker 5: play in tournament, because if they do that, still it's true.
29:22
Speaker 2: You don't even want like the wiggle room to say
29:24
Speaker 2: that they've won.
29:25
Speaker 5: I get it, yeah, because I don't want to say
29:27
Speaker 5: they haven't won a playoff game on those suit kount
29:29
Speaker 5: of playing Nina out Let's have no ambiguity. I want
29:31
Speaker 5: them to get smashed, and I want that curse to continue.
29:35
Speaker 2: Texas says, are you really doing a three hour show
29:37
Speaker 2: alone today? It would be four if you include the appetizer.
29:41
Speaker 2: But no. Moser will join us at some point. Again,
29:44
Speaker 2: he got in at three o'clock in the morning, probably
29:46
Speaker 2: got the bet at three forty five. Let the man
29:47
Speaker 2: sleep for a little bit, Okay.
29:49
Speaker 5: Do you want to read the people exactly what he
29:51
Speaker 5: texted us?
29:52
Speaker 2: Sure, I'll betray a trust live on the air. Two
29:58
Speaker 2: forty seven am. Just walked in the door. Your faces
30:02
Speaker 2: are bleeping dumb, is what he said to us. So
30:07
Speaker 2: let the man sleep for a second. Okay, he will
30:11
Speaker 2: join us shortly. We will be joined by Eric Johnson
30:16
Speaker 2: at eight o'clock as opposed to Jared Bednar because Jared
30:18
Speaker 2: Pednhar took a puck off the face, which I'm sure
30:21
Speaker 2: is the same feeling that Moser has this morning. Did
30:25
Speaker 2: you guys happen to see by the way Rick Bonus
30:29
Speaker 2: was at his postgame press conference, and they've had a
30:37
Speaker 2: bit of a tough year. So you look at the
30:41
Speaker 2: standings right now in the NHL, and it was Columbus
30:48
Speaker 2: at ninety two points, which if you think about this,
30:51
Speaker 2: if they were in the Western Conference, they would be
30:53
Speaker 2: in a playoff spot right now, but the East is
30:55
Speaker 2: just a little bit more stacked from top to bottom.
30:59
Speaker 2: They play their final game of the year, Columbus, who
31:02
Speaker 2: had to win late in this season, just fell apart.
31:07
Speaker 2: They ended up with only three wins since let's see here,
31:15
Speaker 2: they lost every game except for two since March twenty sixth,
31:24
Speaker 2: so that is two and nine to close out the year.
31:29
Speaker 2: Obviously eliminated them from postseason contention. Rick Bonus said this
31:33
Speaker 2: after the last game of the year, which they were limited.
31:35
Speaker 6: Probably got just look at the statute, three hits, twenty
31:39
Speaker 6: three giveaways, Like, I don't know if I'm back, but
31:43
Speaker 6: if I'm back, I'm changing this culture. These guys they
31:46
Speaker 6: don't care. Losing is not important enough to them. It
31:51
Speaker 6: doesn't bother them, Like, how can you go out and
31:53
Speaker 6: play like that. Should have done this about a month ago.
31:56
Speaker 6: But this is why we are where we are. This
31:58
Speaker 6: is why we run of the playoffs. That kind of effort.
32:02
Speaker 2: Losing.
32:02
Speaker 6: You have to hate losing. I don't care if it's
32:05
Speaker 6: a meaningless game. I don't care. Show up and compete.
32:10
Speaker 6: Three hits, twenty three giveaways.
32:13
Speaker 2: That's just a portion of it. He said this.
32:16
Speaker 6: Too, because it got tough, because it got hurt. Like
32:19
Speaker 6: we talked about after the Olympic break, it's gonna get harder.
32:24
Speaker 6: So everything is good as long as it's going their way,
32:26
Speaker 6: and now it gets tough. We don't want to battle back,
32:29
Speaker 6: and that's why. But that's what's happened over the last
32:31
Speaker 6: little week, a couple of weeks.
32:32
Speaker 2: That's all that's happened.
32:34
Speaker 6: We're gonna change that.
32:34
Speaker 2: If I'm back, and I don't know. If I'm back,
32:36
Speaker 2: we'll go and I will talk.
32:37
Speaker 6: We'll get to that. But man oh man, some of
32:40
Speaker 6: those guys are so lucky. The season is over and
32:43
Speaker 6: there's no practice tomorrow anyways, there's no more games. What
32:48
Speaker 6: else you want to know?
32:50
Speaker 2: So that's rick bonus look in saying something like that.
32:53
Speaker 2: I actually think it's pretty bad ass. When you step
32:56
Speaker 2: to the podium and you're like, if I'm back, because
33:00
Speaker 2: you know there's gonna be questions about it. You're like,
33:03
Speaker 2: I'm going to fix all of this stuff. But you
33:05
Speaker 2: repeat if I'm back, it's you basically pleading, like give
33:09
Speaker 2: me one more shot and watch what happens.
33:10
Speaker 3: Now.
33:11
Speaker 2: I don't know if it actually turns around, but I
33:16
Speaker 2: think it's pretty rare to hear a coach that animated
33:19
Speaker 2: after the final game of the year. Usually that is
33:22
Speaker 2: reserved for time of reflection. There is no reflection for
33:25
Speaker 2: Rick Bonus. He is ready to beat somebody down. What
33:29
Speaker 2: I mean it took him like Nelly. You heard the clip.
33:32
Speaker 2: He was basically crying for like thirty seconds before even spoke.
33:36
Speaker 2: I means super emotional. But RAYO three five, four nine

34:53

34:55
Speaker 2: Let's see. Is there anything else we can add up
34:57
Speaker 2: to the top of this well, I'm gonna tell you
34:58
Speaker 2: right now. I had two kids in daycare, and Nelly,
35:02
Speaker 2: you aren't safe from anything. I could bring whatever disease
35:05
Speaker 2: those places like conjure up immediately into this place.
35:09
Speaker 5: And that's why there is a huge, double pained piece
35:12
Speaker 5: of glass between you and me.
35:13
Speaker 2: Are right now. Every sneeze I have, I'm gonna throw
35:16
Speaker 2: right in your studio. I'm gonna walk right over and
35:18
Speaker 2: do it. Eric Johnson will join me in fifteen minutes. Now,
35:22
Speaker 2: few things here as we we look ahead. There was
35:28
Speaker 2: an update from Jim Nance, who was calling the Masters obviously,
35:32
Speaker 2: and something that he noticed in talking to Pat McAfee yesterday,
35:36
Speaker 2: which was bow Nicks.
35:37
Speaker 7: There are a lot of NFL guys that are hanging
35:39
Speaker 7: around Augusta. Yeah, yeah, I don't know how they're all
35:42
Speaker 7: getting in, but you know, just again, I ran into
35:46
Speaker 7: Drake May. I ran into bow Nicks, who looked very
35:50
Speaker 7: healthy here, you know, the walking that place. Obviously, he
35:54
Speaker 7: was walking around and it was fascinating. Bow and Drake,
35:57
Speaker 7: the whole with dust experience in together. And you said
36:00
Speaker 7: it earlier, the undulation, the great at Augusta. It is
36:04
Speaker 7: up and down more than anybody could ever imagine. So
36:08
Speaker 7: Bo and Drake spent a couple of days together hanging out.
36:12
Speaker 2: So here's my question off this. I feel like there
36:16
Speaker 2: was a lot of panic when bo nick suffered that
36:20
Speaker 2: ankle injury. And I can understand why he used the
36:24
Speaker 2: face of your franchise. He's the franchise quarterback. And the
36:27
Speaker 2: timing in which he got hurt was forget less than ideal.
36:33
Speaker 2: The timing was poop like the worst you could actually have.
36:42
Speaker 2: It's heading into an AFC championship game against a team
36:45
Speaker 2: that you very, very easily could have beaten and had
36:50
Speaker 2: a chance to play in the Super Bowl. But I
36:52
Speaker 2: feel like the timing of his injury has led to
36:54
Speaker 2: more panic than was necessary. You know, if I asked,
36:58
Speaker 2: we'll do let's throw one of these out there, straw
37:01
Speaker 2: poah creo three five four nine two five shot maz
37:07
Speaker 2: the text line one price, one person, one hour. Are
37:10
Speaker 2: you still concerned about bo Nix's ankle long term? Yes?
37:15
Speaker 2: Or no? Cause I'm not. I think that it's just
37:20
Speaker 2: a weird injury that happened. That's just you know, what
37:23
Speaker 2: are you gonna do? And you can go back and
37:25
Speaker 2: tell me, well, guess what, man, He had an ankle
37:28
Speaker 2: injury in high school and he had one in college,
37:30
Speaker 2: And I would counter with this, how many games has
37:33
Speaker 2: that dude missed? Go back and look at him in
37:38
Speaker 2: college all the way through the pros and tell me
37:40
Speaker 2: the amount of games that he missed. Did you know
37:44
Speaker 2: that bo Nicks played in one hundred percent of the
37:46
Speaker 2: snaps until the AFC Championship game, Like I am not
37:56
Speaker 2: taking this knee or I'm sorry this ankle some sort
38:01
Speaker 2: of like what do you think he's gonna be? Michael
38:03
Speaker 2: Pennix All of a sudden, like the timing of the
38:11
Speaker 2: injury because it was at such an important I mean,
38:19
Speaker 2: if you got to a Super Bowl with a quarterback
38:21
Speaker 2: in year two, you have like grand ideas of where
38:25
Speaker 2: this team can go down the line. And I just
38:29
Speaker 2: think it exacerbated a lot of the talking that went
38:33
Speaker 2: around what bo Nicks was dealing with and how severe
38:37
Speaker 2: the injury was. I think it was kind of like
38:40
Speaker 2: if that happened in the middle of the season, it
38:42
Speaker 2: wouldn't be a big deal. You know, if you're looking
38:46
Speaker 2: at Michael Penis and again it's a knee injury, yeah,
38:49
Speaker 2: you have some real concerns about that. If this is
38:56
Speaker 2: somebody with a chronic this thing is constantly them out.
39:01
Speaker 2: You know, if it's Joelle embiide, if it's something like that,
39:04
Speaker 2: different story, but he plays, you know, it's the same thing.
39:10
Speaker 2: I was talking about this with Leggy last week. There
39:14
Speaker 2: have been the anonymous quotes about Jalen Waddell where they've said, well,
39:20
Speaker 2: there's injury concerns, and I'm like, well, go look at
39:22
Speaker 2: this game's played. He plays as long as you show
39:27
Speaker 2: up for game day. I mean, I'm sure everybody is
39:29
Speaker 2: dealing with Nixon bruises and you're banged up here and
39:32
Speaker 2: there whatever. I think most of this has to do
39:38
Speaker 2: with the timing of the injury. Now, A text says,
39:41
Speaker 2: I don't have long term concerns about his injuries. I
39:45
Speaker 2: have long term concerns about his ability. That's a different discussion.
39:51
Speaker 2: You know. I'm kind of coming around to the idea
39:56
Speaker 2: that bo Nicks is just a slow starter his last
40:03
Speaker 2: two years, his first two years in the league. It
40:05
Speaker 2: does feel like early in the season you don't get
40:09
Speaker 2: as much output as you do later in the year,
40:12
Speaker 2: like he starts to pick up steam. Especially later this year.
40:17
Speaker 2: He was using his legs a lot more, and I
40:19
Speaker 2: think that was out of necessity due to the Dobbins injury.
40:23
Speaker 2: But last year, obviously you're making your first few starts
40:26
Speaker 2: as a rookie, it's not gonna look great. But you
40:29
Speaker 2: see the final what four game stretch of his rookie year,
40:33
Speaker 2: it was three touchdowns, two touchdowns, three touchdowns, four touchdowns.
40:38
Speaker 2: This year, it wasn't the touchdown numbers so much as
40:41
Speaker 2: far as I just think level of play was a
40:43
Speaker 2: lot better. Point totals for the Broncos, a lot better.
40:49
Speaker 2: You saw it in the Buffalo playoff game, Like he
40:51
Speaker 2: has the ability to turn things on when he has to.
40:55
Speaker 2: But if you're questioning the ability of bo Nicks, I
40:58
Speaker 2: think I'd understand it considering I don't know if i'd
41:02
Speaker 2: put and maybe these are the same thing. I don't
41:06
Speaker 2: know consistency, which is obviously important for a quarterback, but
41:14
Speaker 2: it's in the fourth quarter. He's like football Jesus, And
41:23
Speaker 2: too often in quarters one through three it's I'm going
41:27
Speaker 2: to intentionally build us a hole just so I can
41:31
Speaker 2: dig our way out of it and look cool. And
41:35
Speaker 2: it was met with jubilation and frustration all at once
41:38
Speaker 2: with me. But if he can put that together over
41:43
Speaker 2: the course of four quarters, I got no beef with
41:46
Speaker 2: bo Nicks. I think too many people think that your
41:50
Speaker 2: quarterback has to be a generational type player to make
41:54
Speaker 2: a commitment to him, and that's not the case. You
41:57
Speaker 2: can win a lot of football games. You could win
41:59
Speaker 2: Champion Chips with quarterbacks who are not at that caliber.
42:03
Speaker 2: See Sam Donald. Donald's a good quarterback. I think that
42:10
Speaker 2: if you ask Seattle right now, hey, you have to
42:13
Speaker 2: pay him sixty five million dollars a year. He just
42:16
Speaker 2: won a Super Bowl? Are you going to do it?
42:18
Speaker 2: They wouldn't say yes right away. They might eventually get
42:21
Speaker 2: around to it, or they might say no. But I
42:24
Speaker 2: can tell you this, their snap decision isn't going to
42:27
Speaker 2: be absolutely But this is why when you're here with
42:34
Speaker 2: with the Broncos, and I don't when I say this,
42:42
Speaker 2: this isn't making an ultimate judgment on who this guy
42:44
Speaker 2: is going to be five years from now. But I
42:46
Speaker 2: don't know what Bonnicks is. I don't know if bo
42:48
Speaker 2: Nicks is the type of guy that when you pay
42:52
Speaker 2: him sixty million dollars a year, and you will, you
42:55
Speaker 2: don't have the same level of defense that you had
42:59
Speaker 2: over the past couple of year years. You can't afford
43:02
Speaker 2: to pay the same offensive lineman or that that caliber
43:06
Speaker 2: of offensive line. With the money that they're making a
43:09
Speaker 2: lot of that becomes a lot more of the responsibility
43:12
Speaker 2: on the quarterback's shoulder. Can he carry a team that way?
43:17
Speaker 2: That I don't know, but it puts even more emphasis
43:20
Speaker 2: on making sure that you push your chips to the
43:23
Speaker 2: middle of the table this year, which they did with
43:25
Speaker 2: the Jalen model trade. And according to a keep to leave,
43:29
Speaker 2: there's another one around the corner that he's aware of
43:31
Speaker 2: that nobody else is yet. But you make whatever hey
43:37
Speaker 2: that you can make while he's on this deal where
43:41
Speaker 2: he's making a couple million dollars a year, because that
43:45
Speaker 2: will change. But you've seen it. This team has the
43:51
Speaker 2: ability to win a Super Bowl if all things are right,
43:56
Speaker 2: and right now, all things are right three three, five,
44:01
Speaker 2: four nine two five he was walking the undulated fairways
44:05
Speaker 2: at the Masters. If that's some good news for you,
