- 1:06Speaker 4: Right, Joe, Well, first, of all, only for you, will
- 1:10Speaker 4: I talk about Jackson Daht before I talk about the
- 1:13Speaker 4: nick soon to be world champion knickerboxers. Okay, so I'm
- 1:17Speaker 4: gonna let that it's only been fifty three years, but
- 1:20Speaker 4: let's talk about Jackson Dart first. Okay. I love Jackson Dart, Bro,
- 1:25Speaker 4: I love this guy at Mississippi. I was so happy
- 1:29Speaker 4: for the Giant fans when they drafted him. We should
- 1:32Speaker 4: have drafted him. And I give him all the credit
- 1:34Speaker 4: in the world to having the balls to go up
- 1:36Speaker 4: there because he loves the country and he loves the president.
- 1:40Speaker 4: And let me say this about Abdul Carter. Okay, this
- 1:44Speaker 4: is the guy, like you said, I'm waiting for him
- 1:46Speaker 4: to make a big play for the Giants. This is
- 1:48Speaker 4: the guy who, when he got drafted by the Giants,
- 1:51Speaker 4: had the you know, the audacity to say, hey, I
- 1:55Speaker 4: won number fifty six. No no, no, no no, And
- 1:58Speaker 4: NLT he was a big Trump guy, by the way,
- 2:00Speaker 4: let me say that too. And then LT says, no,
- 2:04Speaker 4: what are you nuts? Go get your own go, go
- 2:07Speaker 4: get your own damn number. This guy's about as close
- 2:10Speaker 4: to LT. Okay, you know what I'm saying, Bro, Let's
- 2:13Speaker 4: be honest about it. Okay, he's not an Abdul Carter
- 2:17Speaker 4: has got a long way to go to be even
- 2:19Speaker 4: a pimple on LT's ass.
- 2:22Speaker 3: LT. I mean he did nothing last year. Nothing that
- 2:25Speaker 3: he did nothing in his rookie season. Nothing.
- 2:27Speaker 4: He did nothing. And let me say this too. Do
- 2:29Speaker 4: you think if if Jackson dought it is what ticks
- 2:33Speaker 4: me off too? If Jackson Dodd is up there introducing
- 2:36Speaker 4: Barack Obama, he's getting praised, kissing his head.
- 2:39Speaker 3: That's right.
- 2:41Speaker 4: And I heard this too, and I don't know if
- 2:43Speaker 4: this is true or not. Okay, that he the bump
- 2:47Speaker 4: in his jersey sales has been off the charts. That's
- 2:50Speaker 4: not mistaken. He's the number one selling jersey right now.
- 2:53Speaker 3: That is true. That is true.
- 2:55Speaker 4: Let me throw that in there too. God bless Jackson thought.
- 2:59Speaker 4: And you know, Opera, even though I'm a Jet fan,
- 3:02Speaker 4: I love my team. You know there's no question about that.
- 3:05Speaker 4: I hope that someday, Okay, he delivers one for you, bro.
- 3:10Speaker 3: Thank you. I've got four, four out of five. That
- 3:13Speaker 3: was ugly against the Ravens.
- 3:14Speaker 4: Four. I'm waiting for the front now and right now
- 3:17Speaker 4: all I can think about is my basketball team. Bro,
- 3:20Speaker 4: what this team has done in this play or in
- 3:23Speaker 4: this playoff run is on.
- 3:25Speaker 2: Well, let me stop you for one second before you
- 3:27Speaker 2: go into the eleven game win streaking. How they just
- 3:30Speaker 2: bludgeon teams even on the road in deciding games. It
- 3:33Speaker 2: wasn't that long ago when my dear friend, the radio
- 3:36Speaker 2: Hall of Famer Joe Biningo, you're getting in. I'm telling you,
- 3:39Speaker 2: I have a lot of conversations.
- 3:40Speaker 4: Yet, Bro, you're getting me. Bro. Let me tell you
- 3:42Speaker 4: right now, Barry Bonds will be a whole.
- 3:44Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, don't be surprised if you going
- 3:46Speaker 2: with me. But anyway, we'll keep that to a different conversation.
- 3:50Speaker 2: Has a lot of talk about it. I can promise
- 3:52Speaker 2: you that you've got a lot of people, I'm serious,
- 3:54Speaker 2: a lot of people out there rooting you on, including me.
- 3:57Speaker 2: I'm not in either yet, but I'll get there, and
- 3:58Speaker 2: so will you. But not that long ago. You said
- 4:01Speaker 2: to me a couple of months ago, my greatest fear
- 4:04Speaker 2: is I'm gonna die.
- 4:05Speaker 3: You're in your seventies, seventy two.
- 4:07Speaker 2: None of my teams are gonna win a championship. The
- 4:09Speaker 2: Mets aren't close, the Jets aren't close. The Rangers aren't close,
- 4:12Speaker 2: and at the time we thought the Knicks maybe were
- 4:15Speaker 2: the fourth best team inside the conference.
- 4:17Speaker 3: So guess what, Joe, that may change.
- 4:19Speaker 4: Now, Bro, I'm telling you, man, I got emotional last night.
- 4:25Speaker 4: You know you know what I did. As soon as
- 4:26Speaker 4: after the game was old, I watched you know, I
- 4:28Speaker 4: watched the ceremony. I had to go. I had to
- 4:31Speaker 4: go to the tunes and play a little New York metally. Okay,
- 4:34Speaker 4: I played New York New York by Frank the Anthem,
- 4:38Speaker 4: a little New York State of Mind by Billy Joel,
- 4:40Speaker 4: even though he talks about the New York Times and
- 4:42Speaker 4: the Daily News, and I'm back in the New York
- 4:46Speaker 4: carew by the Late Great Eights freely. I had to
- 4:48Speaker 4: do a little, a little bit of that. I know
- 4:51Speaker 4: we're not there yet, but I gotta tell you, Bro,
- 4:54Speaker 4: I don't care if it's the Spur. I rat to
- 4:55Speaker 4: play the Spurs. And I'll tell you why. I'd rather
- 4:58Speaker 4: to play the Spurs because they beat us in nineteen
- 5:00Speaker 4: ninety nine and because of that complete a hole scumbag
- 5:05Speaker 4: who hates the country, Greg freaking Popovich, and I know
- 5:09Speaker 4: he's not the coach anymore. Okay, he's got a lot
- 5:13Speaker 4: to say about shit. Excuse me, I said I shouldn't
- 5:15Speaker 4: say that he's got a lot to say about it.
- 5:17Speaker 4: Y'all help you cut me off when I said that word,
- 5:20Speaker 4: he's got a lot to say about it. But boy,
- 5:22Speaker 4: oh boy, do who I want to stick one up
- 5:24Speaker 4: his rear? Rank, I gotta tell you right.
- 5:26Speaker 3: Now, me too.
- 5:26Speaker 2: I hate who it is, but I want to beat
- 5:31Speaker 2: the freaking Spurs.
- 5:33Speaker 4: I want to stick at the victor when Bayama, who
- 5:35Speaker 4: everybody kisses his freaking ass?
- 5:38Speaker 3: So, well, who do we mean? Who do we match
- 5:41Speaker 3: up better against?
- 5:42Speaker 4: So let me just say one more thing. Okay, if
- 5:44Speaker 4: you think that that lottery wasn't fixed so the Spurs
- 5:48Speaker 4: could get when Bayama, you know what, think again, I
- 5:51Speaker 4: don't care who we match up better against. You know,
- 5:54Speaker 4: we got the best team. This is the best starting
- 5:56Speaker 4: lineup in the NBA. This team goes seven to eight d.
- 6:00Speaker 4: They got eight guys on this team, bro, legitimately eight guys.
- 6:04Speaker 4: I'll say seven. I want to say eight. I'll say seven.
- 6:06Speaker 4: They got seven guys on his team that I would
- 6:09Speaker 4: be completely comfortable with for taking the shot to win
- 6:13Speaker 4: a game at the buzzer seven guys. I got it,
- 6:17Speaker 4: seven guys.
- 6:17Speaker 2: I don't disagree. Now, stephen A. Smith, you and I
- 6:20Speaker 2: become very close. How much of if you like him
- 6:22Speaker 2: and not, We're very close. And he'll be on this
- 6:23Speaker 2: show this week too. And he's a big nick man,
- 6:25Speaker 2: he really is. He's not one of these guys that
- 6:27Speaker 2: jumped on the bandwig. In the last couple of weeks,
- 6:28Speaker 2: I was seeing a lot of those go way.
- 6:30Speaker 4: Back with Steven. He used to go on My Overnight
- 6:32Speaker 4: show many may but when we were both basically nobody's
- 6:35Speaker 4: he came on My Overnight show all the time.
- 6:37Speaker 3: Good.
- 6:37Speaker 2: I didn't even know that good. That's good, yeah, because
- 6:39Speaker 2: I love you both. And he said after the win
- 6:41Speaker 2: last night that if Brunson wins the championship this year,
- 6:46Speaker 2: it's time to talk about him being the greatest nick ever.
- 6:48Speaker 2: I would say slow down, but that's what Stephen A.
- 6:50Speaker 2: Smith said last night.
- 6:52Speaker 4: Well, I wouldn't say he goes on. I will say this,
- 6:55Speaker 4: he probably goes beyond Patrick. I will give him that.
- 6:58Speaker 4: I would put him beyond Patrick, behind still behind Clyde
- 7:01Speaker 4: and Willis, you know, still behind those two guys. But
- 7:05Speaker 4: he goes beyond youing and what he has done for
- 7:08Speaker 4: this franchise. Uh, let's be honest about this. You could
- 7:13Speaker 4: make the case. And all due respect to Reggie Jackson. Okay,
- 7:16Speaker 4: and we talked about this. I think last time he's
- 7:19Speaker 4: the greatest free agent signing in the history of New
- 7:22Speaker 4: York sports. And how the Dallas Mavericks let that And
- 7:25Speaker 4: I know you look, I mean his last year in Dallas.
- 7:28Speaker 4: I know he was real good in the playoffs. I
- 7:29Speaker 4: think he average eleven points a game. Nobody saw this
- 7:32Speaker 4: guy turning into you know, one of the great really
- 7:35Speaker 4: one of the all time greats. And I'm gonna say this, woman,
- 7:38Speaker 4: how is this guy only second team All NBA? What
- 7:42Speaker 4: come on? I mean, it's some play. And I'm gonna
- 7:44Speaker 4: say this too. You know what this is Two? They
- 7:46Speaker 4: will be underdogs in this series against either team.
- 7:49Speaker 3: Well, Oklahoma City they should be the other winning chimps.
- 7:52Speaker 4: Well, well what does that mean?
- 7:53Speaker 3: What it means the back of the playoffs.
- 7:56Speaker 4: Seriously, Bro, They're gonna be the underdog in this series
- 7:58Speaker 4: no matter what. Okay, there's still people out there that
- 8:01Speaker 4: don't respect this team what they have done. Just think
- 8:04Speaker 4: about this, bro. In the three close out games of
- 8:08Speaker 4: the series against Atlanta, Philly and now Cleveland. Jaellen Bronston
- 8:12Speaker 4: hasn't played in the fourth quarter in any of those.
- 8:15Speaker 2: Games, That's right. And they won by over twenty in
- 8:17Speaker 2: all of them. And look for twenty thirty. Yeah, listen,
- 8:21Speaker 2: I think they're gonna win.
- 8:22Speaker 4: Hold on. They won by fifty one against Atlanta, they
- 8:25Speaker 4: won by thirty against the Sixers, and they won by
- 8:29Speaker 4: thirty seven last night against Cleveland.
- 8:30Speaker 2: I mean, but in all fairness, and again, I do
- 8:32Speaker 2: think the Knick's gonna win the championship. And I love
- 8:34Speaker 2: this team as much as you do. I'm not waiting
- 8:36Speaker 2: as long as you are because I'm a little younger,
- 8:38Speaker 2: but I'm waiting a long time. You would agree that
- 8:41Speaker 2: whoever wins the Western Conference finals has played much better
- 8:43Speaker 2: basketball teams than the Knicks.
- 8:45Speaker 4: House well, I guess. I mean the state outside of
- 8:50Speaker 4: San Antonio and the thunder who's so great in the West.
- 8:53Speaker 2: But he's great, Nisa, you don't think that, you know,
- 8:57Speaker 2: you don't think you don't think Denver is better than
- 9:00Speaker 2: than Cleveland.
- 9:01Speaker 3: Oh yeah they are, Yeah, they're on.
- 9:03Speaker 4: Yeah, gim me den but we've wiped it and wiped
- 9:05Speaker 4: the floor with them. Give me a freaking break.
- 9:07Speaker 3: I love the confident.
- 9:09Speaker 4: Give me a break, bro, you know what, Broke, I'm tired.
- 9:11Speaker 4: I'm tired of the disrespect. Okay, all right, and it
- 9:15Speaker 4: is time now to exercise the ghost okay of Charles Smith,
- 9:21Speaker 4: of Michael Jordan, of Reggie Miller, of a Team, Elijahwan,
- 9:25Speaker 4: of Letting, Patrick pat Riley Walk of twenty Years, of
- 9:29Speaker 4: the Abyss of Isaiah Thomas, of Roy Hibbert Block and
- 9:33Speaker 4: Carmelo Anthony. It is time to exercise all the ef
- 9:40Speaker 4: in ghosts.
- 9:40Speaker 3: Bro, I love this.
- 9:41Speaker 2: So in the final thirty seconds, you're great, Joe, You're great.
- 9:43Speaker 2: In the final thirty second, I'm fired.
- 9:45Speaker 4: No, how could I know.
- 9:47Speaker 3: I'm gonna keep bringing you out throughout this whole process.
- 9:49Speaker 2: But in the final thirty seconds then and I hate
- 9:52Speaker 2: to bring it up because I don't think it's gonna happen,
- 9:54Speaker 2: but but if either one of these teams, Oklahoma City
- 9:57Speaker 2: or San Antonio beats the name, will this be one of.
- 10:01Speaker 3: The most disappointing losses in your lifetime?
- 10:04Speaker 4: Yes, wow, no question about it. Wow. Because if we don't.
- 10:07Speaker 3: If this team Wow, we.
- 10:11Speaker 4: Come doesn't win the championship said, when the hell a day? Winning?
- 10:15Speaker 2: Will you tell me it's worse than when the Mets
- 10:17Speaker 2: loss to the Dodgers.
- 10:18Speaker 3: In eighty eight.
- 10:19Speaker 4: This would you know what, Bro? As good as that,
- 10:22Speaker 4: that was pretty bad. I'm losing to the Dodgers was bad.
- 10:25Speaker 4: And that's the worst loss in the history of the Mets,
- 10:27Speaker 4: there's no doubt about it. But no team, just think
- 10:30Speaker 4: about this, that I root for has suffered more brutal
- 10:34Speaker 4: playoff losses than this team. No team that I root for,
- 10:38Speaker 4: and I'll say it again, more brutal playoff losses. And
- 10:43Speaker 4: I don't want to start breaking them all down. I
- 10:45Speaker 4: don't want to go through all of it, all the
- 10:47Speaker 4: pain of the ewing years. I don't want to do that. Okay,
- 10:51Speaker 4: but that's the bottom line, the playoff losses that this
- 10:55Speaker 4: team has had. Like I said, whether it's Charles Smith,
- 10:57Speaker 4: whether it's the finger roll, it was the the suspensions,
- 11:01Speaker 4: the BS, suspensions against the Heat. We could go on
- 11:04Speaker 4: and on, Bro. I mean with the brutal play last
- 11:07Speaker 4: year with Halliburton, with the shot going up and coming down. No, no, agree,
- 11:14Speaker 4: I'm with him.
- 11:15Speaker 3: We'll bring you back in a couple of days. I
- 11:17Speaker 3: got to run.
- 11:18Speaker 4: This is it. This is it right there, this is
- 11:20Speaker 4: just a right there with the Jets fifty three freaking years.
- 11:25Speaker 4: It is time for the parade. Bro.

- 11:32Speaker 2: your right back on. Is that worked for you, Joseph, Bro,
