• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Alright, alright, alive from Philly. It's the Folly and Donty Foolsco. Show.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: Yo always Polly Fools go here with Tony Foolsco. And Don'ty.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Today it's a special presentation of the Polly and Tony
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Foolsco Show because we're about to reveal top ten all
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: time playoff performers. Now, other shows in the hosts right
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: now with you know, waste time bantering about whatever metrics
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: they used to create their stupid list. We're not gonna
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: waste time with that bullshit, are we, Tony. No, you
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: can trust that this is all based on scientific data
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: and analytical analysis. So just sit back, enjoy, and also
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: learn exactly. So here we go. Let's get into it
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: without further a dude, our list of all time playoff
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: performers starting at number ten to kid alright, kicking off
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: all less at number ten. Obviously, I gotta go with
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Michael Jordan's obvious. You know, Michael Jordan's Yeah, he was
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: good and all, but whatever he played in an era
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: when you know we had to win the best of
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: five in the first round. You know, yead it easy.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: So because of that, you know, we gotta hold it
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: against him in the metrics, right Tony, Yeah, Michael Jordan's
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: had the three day work week, and if you look
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: at the NBA as a business, which it is, you'd
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: have to consider him a part time employee, and therefore
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: it isn't fair to the other full time employees. Absolutely
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: great point, don'ty? And well said, let's move on to
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: our number nine all time playoff performer, Number nine, Tim
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Duncan you know Sean? Alright? He won five rings, will
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: give him that. But the category here is playoff performers,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: and you know that means we have to count the
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: most important metric that measures quality of performance, and that
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: of course is TV ratings, and that TV ratings for
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: the Spurs were unbelievably low, bottom of the barrel, right, don'ty?
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Of course, the Spurs had the lowest TV ratings of
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: any NBA champion. Do you know that in two thousand
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: and three when they faced the Nets in the finals
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: for the second time, that last game got beat by
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: a rerun of REBA. Not good, just terrible. That's says
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: it all, doesn't it, Tony? Yep? Sure does alright? Number
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: eight all time playoff performers. Of course, you gotta go
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: with Lamel low ball. And you know, you may say, oh, well,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: LaMelo Ball, he's never won a playoff game. But as
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: we've explained numerous times on this show, when you're doing
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: all Time list, you have to consider the past, but
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: you also have to consider the future. Absolutely. You know,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: all time means all of time, so that means we
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: have to take into account what LaMelo has done, but
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: also what he is going to do and when you
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: project based on his current performance, he's already won eight
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: championships in the late twenties into the twenty thirties as well. Wow,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: unreal stats there from LaMelo Ball. Total domination for decades,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: All right, now, an easy choice here, Tony, Sean Kemp,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: no brain. Yeah, he never won a title, but that's
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: because he lost the mic with Jordan's who was well
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: rested after that three game bullshit first round. But you know,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: you have to look at the most important area of
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: the game, which was his performance in NBA JAM. Isn't
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: that right? Don't of course you're right again, Pauli. People
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: say you shouldn't count NBA JAM, but of course you should.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: It was based on real life NBA stats like dunk power.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Sean Kemp not only had a lot of dunk power,
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: but if you took a shot with him from the
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: opposite side of the court with no time left, it
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: would almost always go in. And it didn't matter whether
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: he was on fire or not. So true, great points
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: all around, don'ty, And let's get to number six all
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: time playoff performers. Number six a legend, Dwight Howard. People
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: say lebron in a d win the championship with the Lakers. No, please,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: they went together a season before that. They didn't win
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the White Howard comes along, comes to town in the championship.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: You don't even need to explain anymore that, do your
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Tony Nope? End of story. Move on, all right? That
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: will take us to number five. Another big man, even
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: bigger man number five. Of course, we're talking about Luke Longley.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: You know, when you look at those nineties balls, people,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: if you want to find the most impactful player, all
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: you gotta do is ask yourself one question, who's the tallest? Right?
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: Tony absolutely seven to Luke Longly. Winning the tip off,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: winning those jump balls the deciding factor. You know, you
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: can't score baskets if you don't have possession of the
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: ball and how do you do that? Tip balls, jump
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: for balls? Perfect analysis that Doty. And you know this
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: is also why I have zero respect for the Warriors.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: You know, Puny, who wants to watch those games? You know,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: they're so tiny. The other night, you know, I had
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: to sit close to my TV just to be able
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: to see what was going on. I wanted to pull
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: out a magnifying glass. I couldn't see who was who.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: They're so dyny, It's terrible. You know, the founding fathers
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: of basketball based the game on one important principle that
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: tall people are better than short people. In fact, it
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: shouldn't be called basket ball. It should be called basket
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: tall because it's for tall people. You know, when you
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: put it that white, Tony, it makes a ton of sense.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: And you know, I don't want to divert from our
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: list here, but you know I gotta say. You know,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: we were at six Flags the other day and you know,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: remember we were about the board that coasta and we
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: saw that sign must be this tall to board. And
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: you know what I've been thinking about since then, Tony,
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: I've been thinking that they should have a sign like
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: that in the NBA. Must be sixty or taller to enter.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be great? Yeah? Good idea, that would solve everything.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: See you go, you get solutions on this show. That's
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: what we do. That's what we do. All right, let's
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: get it to number four on our list. The legend himself,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: Alan Ivanson. Now you may be thinking, you know, wait,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: I thought Allan iverson small you don't like small people. Yeah,
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: but you know, Alan Ivanson had the cojones to drive
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: to the hoop. He wasn't scared. Meanwhile, Steph Curry, he's
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: he's fifty feet from the hope because he's so scared.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: That's why he learned to shoot from so far away
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: so he wouldn't get to the basket and get stopped
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: like a mosquito or like that guy Newman from Jurassic Park. Exactly.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: You know, an Ai he did it all right. You
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: know when when people remember the Tooth was in one
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: NBA Finals, they barely even remember who won. All they
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: remember is Game one, that forty point performance. Because the
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: series that that's set the tone, right, Tony, he that
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: was the tone set up. And while that other team,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: I think it was the lake Is may have won
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: the series, the tone had already been set, and once
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: that tone is set, you can't change it. Absolutely not
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: terrific analysis by you, as all, Tony, and that leads
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: to number three on our list. Number three, No surprises here,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Brooke Lopez. You know when you took talk about the
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: heroes of that Milwaukee Bucks championship team, you have to
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: talk about the heart and soul of that team. Brooke Lopez.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: You know, as we all know, in basketball, it's not
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: what you do in the playoffs. It's what you don't
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: do in the playoffs. Isn't that right? Don't it? Absolutely?
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Brook Lopez came to the Bucks and said, I'm not
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: gonna shoot or play as much so I can help
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: you win a championship. In fact, the less sim on
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: the court, the better, And that is the move of
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: a true champion. So beautifully said Tony, and so beautifully
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: done by Mr brook Lopez, which leads to number two
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: on our lesson Number two, of course, Mr Joel em Beid,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: it's the game winning three to beat the Raptors, the
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: definition of clutch, which basically sealed the title right there.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: You could see it. In fact, according to the advanced
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: statistical model that Tony made on his computer. The six
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: is right. Now are a nine nine point eight percent
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: lock to win the title. Now, of course we did
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: have to factor in the news about Joel and beats ah,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: you know, thumb injury there, so that unfortunately lowered it
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: to point seven nine. Yeah, but talking about titles, he
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: already won the scoring title, and that is a title, right,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: don't he. Absolutely, basketball is measured by how many points
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: you put in the basket. That's why it's called basket ball.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: And there you go. Yeah, you know, if the Sixers
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: win that NBA title quote unquote, you know that would
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: be great at all. But you know, the scoring title
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: is more impressive than an NBA title, you know, absolutely,
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: that's the true measure of greatness. You know, when people
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: ever mentioned how many titles someone's won, I always assumed
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: they're talking scoring titles. Naturally you've got though, of course. Yeah.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: You know the other day some shamoul said to me,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: you know, Allen Iverson never on any titles, And I said,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: what do you mean he won two scoring titles? Asshole? Yeah.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: I meanwhile, you know who only has one scoring title?
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Lebron James but says it all, doesn't it? Right? In
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the ball descributing you know, like a socialist anyway, you know,
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: and Beat, let's just let's just put a button on this,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Gony and Deeds already won a scoring title. That's gotta count.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: Is about to win an NBA title. If you win
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: two NBA titles, which that is in the same season,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: you've gotta be You've got to beat the top of
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: this list, right, Tony. Yeah, we do know. Michael Jordan
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: did it too, but again that was with the five
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: game first round, so you have to deduct points for
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: that and give the edge to Joel m Beat. You
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: absolutely have to. And uh, here we go, Tony. We've
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: made it all the way to the top of our list.
• 11:59
