• 4:52
  Speaker 3: I was flipping around. I'm not gonna lie to you.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: I mean I could, I've done that before, but I'm
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: not lying now. I actually was flipping. I was fascinated
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: the match. We're gonna save that till hour two, the
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: a block of hour too. The New York Metropolitans who
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: have done it, they've lost the dirty dozen twelve losses
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: in a row. But I was going back and forth
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: with the basketball epic choke jobs all over the place
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: and the I mean just tremendous. We didn't get any
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: of that on Saturday or Sunday. And here we are
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: now we're heading into a Wednesday, and so the last
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: couple of days have been pretty good for the choke.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: But our lead this hour.
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: We start with the game that ended not that long
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: ago in La La Lan, and we go to skid
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Row the Lakers. You know, all that glitz and glamour
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: and all those celebrities have got to skid row. What
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: a toilet bowl that the arena the Lakers playing is.
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: We're just a terrible part of la and just absolutely
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: horrific sodom and gomorrah.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Anyway, the Lakers.
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: And Rockets were playing there and downtown LA and I
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: don't know if you saw any of this game or not,
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: it looked in the first half like the Lakers are
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: going to blow the doors off the Rockets, and then
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: it was close at halftime and the Rockets were within
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: reach for most of the second half.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: They were wining reach. They could not get over the hump.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: So Lebron James, Lebron James twenty eight points, Marcus Smart
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: had twenty five. Someone should be fired for the Rockets.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: Luke Kennard had twenty three to two. People should be
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: fired for the Rockets. My god, and the Lakers shorthanded
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: hold off the Rockets one oh one ninety four and
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: so win there, and that means the historians are very happy.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: They're up two to zero in this series.
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: The better story, though, is in the losing locker room,
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: and so we go there right now. Houston favored in
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: both of these games. Viva los VICKI our gambling inside,
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: I told us. He said, listen, the Rockets are favored
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: in both these games.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: In so they were, they were fair. I looked it up,
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: double checked it.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: In all that favor in both games on the road,
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: and they managed to lose each one of them. So
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: he said, well, give them a mulligan in game number
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: one because in game one they did not have Kevin Durant.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: Okay, fine, well.
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: Spoiler alert, spoiler alert, Kevin Durant.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: Was back, and it didn't matter.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: It did not matter for Houston as he went out
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: and had not one, not two, not three, not four,
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: not five, not six, not seven, eight nine turnovers. Nine
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: Paris Baggett doesn't make that many turnovers as Kevin Durant did,
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: and nine and in the second half one of the
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: great epic vanishing acts you can possibly have in the
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: second half. So all of that is a good jumping
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: off point. Let us discuss the question. It's a rather
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: obvious question, but we're doing overnight talk radio here.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: What do you want? He wants to go deep.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: No, so the question to the Rockets have a Kevin
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: Durant problem. So on this one, I've got vapor trail,
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: heart surgeon, and saltines and we will combine all of
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: these things together, and we are going to go down
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: the yellow brick road to get some heart.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: That's what we're gonna do. Go down the yellow brick rod,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: down the yellow brick road.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: We go.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: All right, So he to answer the question, do the
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: Rockets have a Kevin Durant problem?
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: I'm nodding my head. Yes. If you're watching on the YouTube,
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna get busy if I keep doing so. But
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: I'm not in my head.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Yess.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: The Rockets don't just have a Kevin Durant problem. They
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: are currently hosting the latest chapter in the never ending
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: story of the Book of Durant, the Book of KD.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: Great player, terrible timing. It's always something, whether it's a
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: boo boo or he just can't get.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: That last shot in or whatever.
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: In this case, it was a bunch of different things
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: that up here. Now, this series here, I don't want
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: two games in. Technically, the Lakers just held serve because
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: they won those games at home, but the series has
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: officially become a referendum on Kevin Durant's ability to be
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: the dude. How can you be the dude when you're
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: not the lights of the brightest And he's like, I
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: gotta get some sunglasses here. I don't know, I'm having
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: vision problems here. How do you lose that game to
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: a Lakers team that is missing both Luka Doncik and
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: Austin Reeves coached by a podcaster, for God's sake, Not
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: that that's all that big, Ada, but my God, and
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: your Durant, you should be able to step it up
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: down the street.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Is that too much? Oh, you're being mean you're being mean. No,
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: I'm not all right.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: Listen, Kevin Durant at the end of that game, he
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: went out and I didn't realize it was his thing.
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: I knew that they do it for lunch, but he
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: had a three martini dinner. Normally that's just a lunch
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: when you're a salesperson. Yeah, a three martini lunch, not
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: a dinner. There he was in the second half, Durant.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: The second half stat line was a horror film. Kevin
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: Durant had three points, three more points than you, and
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: he had made one basket in the second half. Kevin
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: Durant one of five shooting.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: So the rock Cats were like, hey, we need an alpha,
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: we need an alpha.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: And Kevin Durant said, you know what I'm gonna do,
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: Just like a good horror movie, I'm going to fade
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: into the wallpaper and so effectively that every single Lakers
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: starter outscored Kevin Durant in the second half. Holy crap
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: on a cracker Batman. Yes, it happened. Like God, It's
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: ridiculous here, absolutely embarrassing. Gutlass basketball. Now, I was wondering
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: should the Rockets file a missing person's report for Durant
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: or was he just in the parking lot and he
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: was on on his phone playing around onlike social media.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: He's doing that. This was not just a bad game.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: This is like one of those legacy leak type moments series.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: It was only game two of the playoff series, but
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Kevin Durant, the nine turnovers were nine loud reminders that
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: he's just not built to put that on his back.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: You know, he just can't put you on his back.
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: Not going to be that guy. You're not that guy. Palp,
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: You're not that guy. And he's not that guy. And
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: it's the reason that Durant one of the reasons he
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: changed his teams, like burner accounts.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: He's just bouncing around and all that.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: He's looking for a roster that can cover for his
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: many moles and warts in big moments there and he
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: only found one golden State that was it. And they said, well,
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: Durant was the big star, Okay, yeah, surrounded by players
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: in their prime who were also good players, and Durant
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: played great.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: When Durant has to be the.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: Guy, yeah, he's got he's got issues and he continues
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: to look I was getting older.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: He's near the end of his career, he would assume
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: he's not gonna play that much longer.
• 12:05
  Speaker 3: And Kevin Durant, you look at him, he's like, it
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: looks less like a cornerstone Durant and more like a
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: luxury accessory. You know what I'm saying. Yeah, you feel
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: me on that, all right. So that's the issue here.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: And if you can't close out a depleted Laker squad, like,
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: what is there the KD illusion? The Kevin Durant illusion evaporating,
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: and Durant did not just disappear in the second half
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: of Game two. It was a three point game at halftime.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Durant did not just vanish in Game two. He left
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: a vapor trail, like a chem trail, like the guys
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: over at Coast to Coast talk about. That's what he
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: left there, of chemicals and on his way to the
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: wine and veal Pacata Knight while the game was still
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: on the line.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Wake up, Kevin, wake up? What are you doing now?
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: Speaking of not waking up, we go now to Boston
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: where the Celtics. I'm pretty stubborn. You know, I'm stubborn.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: We've talked about this. I'm pretty bullheaded, even I though
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: as bull headed as I am, I would not have
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: continued to do what Joe Mizzoula did for the Celtics there.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: The Celtics attempted fifty three point shots against the Sixers,
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: and somehow Someway missed thirty seven of them, thirty seven
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: out of fifty misses, and sure enough they were upset
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: as vj Ebcomb edgecombe with a huge night his coming
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: out party there for the Sixers as he dominated Philadelphia
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: run off the court in Game one. They come right back,
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: right back now, come on back now, and they did
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: thanks to the generosity of the Sex of Boston was
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: favored by thirteen and a half on the Parque, and
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: Philadelphia ended up covering by twenty seven and a half
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: twenty seven and a half. Missoula Joe Mozula after the
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: game said one of the ways you have to defend
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: them is with offense. Missoula said, I thought we got
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: great looks, thought we missed them. He said, yeah, I
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: have to be able to score in close games against
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: a team like that.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: Blah blah blah blah blah.
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: So Joe Mizula saying it was the offense which was
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: the issue, and they got good shots and all that stuff.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: So the question who gets the blame Lobstock, who gets
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: the blame Lobster for the Celtics flopping in game number two?
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: So the Celtics in this one, they did not just
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: lose Game two. They staged a high budget performance piece
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: on how to hand deliver a less talented opponent an
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: opportunity to kick your ass. That was some very expensive
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: masonry work.
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: Bricklaying that took place find the Boston Celtics in this game.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: And this has been a glitch that the Celtics have
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: had in this period of sustained success, where they are
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: so addicted to the three point shot they just continue
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: to go down that road even when it's not working.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: They continue and continue and continue and continue, and watching
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: them miss thirty seven to three point shots in this game.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: They're so deeply in love with the analytics. Can't get
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: enough of it.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: I cannot get enough of the analytics and all that
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: stuff that it isn't a statistical anomaly you miss thirty
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: seven shots, it's malpractice. You forgot the primary objective of
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: basketballs to put the ball in the hoop. And watching
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: them launch shots like they were trying to take out
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: some low orbit satellite that might have been over the
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: arena there. I mean, my goodness, it's just seriously, what
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: are we doing here? And Joe Mizzoula's got great looks?
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: Is the basketball equivalent of saying, hey, that heart surgeon
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: really good man?
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: Is that heart surgeon great? Now? The surgery was a success.
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know the patient's dead, but the surgery was
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: a success.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: And don't you dare question the process.
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: I know the guy dropped dead on the operating table,
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: but don't bring that up. It's the process, dummy. That's
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: the Celtics. That's the arrogance of the Celtics, and that's
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: how they operate. And it's the process masquerading as coaching
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: and all that stuff.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: It's those great looks.
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: And if those are great looks, okay, the bad ones
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: must involve shooting blindfolded, literally blindfolded.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Is how that goes? My goodness.
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: And at a certain point, don't you have to say, well,
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: time out, let's do a little field of the game here.
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: It's not working. Let's override the analytics department on this night.
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: And they didn't do it. I did not do it.
• 16:59
  Speaker 3: The the Celtics continued to shoot. And also, let's not
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: forget some of those supporting actors were on sabbatical in
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: this game, as Derek White, Sam Hauser and Peyton Pritchard
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: combined to shoot twenty five percent. And my goodness in
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: Philadelphia without Joel Embiid, without Joel Embiid, and this was
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: a gift wrap opportunity, like, hey, they put a win
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: knee sticker on the game, and sure enough, the Sixers said, okay,
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: thanks for putting the ball there as well, we appreciate that.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: And yeah, and the Boston said, listen, we don't want
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: the game, we don't need the game, we don't deserve
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: the game. Television wants this thing to do longer. We're good.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: So the Sixers without their franchise player, mister MVP Joel
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Embiid and all that, and the Celtics decided to provide
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: the great equalizer, which will be thirty seven missed three
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: point shots just to keep things fair with one arm
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: tied behind their back. Now, last word, we go to
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: San Antonio Night of Upsets where Scoot Henderson good name,
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: bad game, Scoot Henderson not on this night though, thirty
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: one points dot Trailblazers boom Shaka laka.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: The Trailblazers go.
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: Out get it done there in the Alamo, take advantage
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: of an injury to Victor Wehm Banyama.
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: That's the story of the night.
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: There, they rally for a three point win one oh
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: six to one oh three over the Spurs to even
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: up the Western Conference playoff series at one game apiece.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: That's a two to seven matchup. The seven gets the win.
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: Here Portland, the Trailblazers closing the game on They went
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: down the Oregon Trail twenty seven to ten, outscoring the
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: Spurs by seventeen. They went from down fourteen to up
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: three and they end up winning the game. So with
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: nine minutes remaining in the second quarter of the store
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: don't bury the lead.
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: The story here.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: With nine minutes ago in the second quarter, Victor wen
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: Banyama drove to the basket on Blazer's guard Drew Holliday,
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: who for some reason was in front of him when
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: Banyama bumped knees with Holiday and then.
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: Tripped towards the floor, Down goes Wemby, Down goes Wemby,
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: and his head bounced like a basketball up and down
• 19:15
  Speaker 4: a couple of times and that was it. He was
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: out of the game, and the Spurs revealing afterwards that
• 19:21
  Speaker 4: Wemba Yama has a concussion and he will undergo further testing.
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: He's in the protocol, which means he is unlikely to
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: play in game number three, unlikely to play in game
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: number three there on Friday in Portland, and that is
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: his status in serious shout doubt on that. So the
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: question where are these Spurs?
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: Where the Spurs headed in this playoff series with Wemby's
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: injury and what appears to be a multiple game situation
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: here is he's in the protocol for concussion. So the
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: victor Wemba Nyama injury, This thing flips it. It's like
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: flipping a coin up in there. It flips it around
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: your franchise cornerstone. Wema Yama is now in a dark
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: room eating saltines, dodging light like a vampire at this
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: point as he tries to recover from the concussion. And
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: then that means the Spurs are on a NonStop flight
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: to Panic City.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Okay, And here's why.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: The foundation of the Spurs and they have some good
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: players around Wemby. The foundation, though suddenly feels more like
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: wet cardboard and the high level of fragility and Wemby's
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: brilliance is undeniable, but so is the reality of the
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: situation here that he has built like a string bean
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: and that is the centerpiece, and watching his head bounce
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: on the floor, it was like watching WrestleMania and a
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: folding chair getting thrown down is what it's like. Gravity
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: is is not just undefeated, it's scouting him. The whole
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: operation starts to resemble a Jenga tower in a wind
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: tunnel with Wemby, like one wrong move and it's.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: Timber just like that.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: And yes, san Antonio should here's a hot take. San
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Antonio should still beat Portland. They are better than Portland
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: in this series. They are more talented. But you know
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: that what that means. Yeah, Should, I've I've been doing
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: this a while and Should has never won playoff games.
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: It's wild. You would think at some point Should would
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: win a playoff game at no. And so they already
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: flunked game two. If Wemby can't go, these spurs are
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: not just shorthanded, then they're obviously exposed here and Wemby
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: is one bump away from rebooting like a malfunctioning laptop
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: in the Fox Sports radio studios, which happens at least
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: once a week where the thing reboots and so why
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: is it rebooting.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: I don't know why it's rebooting. That doesn't make any sense.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I need to reboot, all right, if you want to
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: talk about any of this.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: The night that was in the NBA opening round of
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: the playoffs is all three games went the way they
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: were not supposed to go based on the gambling line.
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: You can be part of this. Eight seven seven ninety
• 22:21

• 22:24

• 22:27
  Speaker 3: got no excuse. They played flat. And the Celtics they
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: had their guys and they sucked, and so that they
• 22:34

• 26:15
  Speaker 3: Andre's robot dog Willis, he says, chucking up three point
• 26:21
  Speaker 3: shots there. And also Houston in six. The Lakers are
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: frauds and everyone knows it, from your lips to the scoreboards.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Years King Rory writes in says, thanks to the Lakers'
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: success in the playoffs, LA sports fans have something to
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: cheer for, unlike the Kings who are getting roasted in
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: the Stanley Cup playoffs. Still not sure how they managed
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: to make these Stanley Cup playffs. Well, then't they just
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: keep tying games and you get points if you tie games.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: That's how that works. Femi the Uber eats Superstar there
• 26:53
  Speaker 3: in Minnesota, right, since, says Kevin Durant is probably going
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: to be busy on his burner account all night. Heck,
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: he's probably a member of the mal Or militia. Absolutely, kd.
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: He stays up all night. He's one of our people.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: He's one of our guys. Absolutely not a burner rights
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: and he says, Edwin Diaz has some free time in
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: his hands, and we'd like to know if there will
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: be any loose bodies at the Ohio Meet and greet.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: I'd taken him out of his elbow.
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was reading about the loose bodies in the
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: elbow and that is something that's changed in my lifetime.
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: This has been an injury. It's been around for a while.
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: Back in the old days, they'd go in there, they'd
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: clean out the loose bodies and they'd be like, all right,
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: there's a little things floating around on your elbow. Let's
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: take those out. We'll arrest you for a couple of weeks.
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: Shit you back on the mount now. The Dodgers like
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: three months, three months, We're gonna keep this guy out
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: three months, Shane and the Moynes says, great monologue and
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: the fifth hour episodes this weekend had me crackling, Krupp
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: cracking up. Thank you there seven seven days week. Thank
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: you Shane into Moines for partaking in that. What else
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: do we have? Michael writes, since says it's a forty
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: year Spurs fan. I'm hoping the Lakers can finish off
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: the pathetic Rockets, just to see LA not only sweep
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: but annihilated by OKC in the next round. I am
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: no thunder fan, but even without Wemby, my team rode
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: the vomit comet in the fourth quarter. JC writs and
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: says is a dedicated Lebron hater. I must admit KD
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: is a much bigger fraud. He quit on OKAC after
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: blowing a three to one lead to the Warriors and
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: then road STEP's coattails to a couple of rings. Since
• 28:33
  Speaker 3: leaving Golden State, He's done nothing well, Jc, He's bounced
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: all over the place since he left Golden State, from
• 28:40
  Speaker 3: team to team to team. We'd also like to announce
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: that Anthony and Anaheim is alive.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: Shocking. We haven't heard from Anthony in a long time.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: He's been years. Who this guy, Anthony and Anaheim?
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: He was?
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: He was a celebrity in the mall of Militia and
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: then he he dared to have become a family man
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: and he gave up the glamour and the glitz of
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: being a celebrity caller on overnight talk radio to be
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: an adult.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: And that's a bad job by him.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: Ryan says, if I recall you said last night the
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: Lakers will lose? Are you hanging out with Poppy from
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: San Diego? Well, Ryan, I'm glad that you pay close attention.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: The Lakers should have lost, and again I miscalculated Kevin
• 29:20
  Speaker 3: Durant being the loser that he is. It's a bad job,
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: bad job by him. If you'd like to hit us up,
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: you can miss up on next at Ben Mahler. That's
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: at Ben Mallard. Mark from Queen says Big Ben epic monologue,
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: referring to the let Him Play Coach Joe Missoula's Celtics
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: and they're fifty three point attempts chucked up there listening
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: to that attempting to down a low flying satellite. Fabulous there.
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: Keep playing the hits that's marked from Queens and we
• 29:52
  Speaker 3: go to the phones. Right now, let's see eeny meeni
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: mini mode. Let's say hello to Jola, who's in Dallas.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: What's going on? He's always smiling there, he is, hello Joelo.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: No, okay, man, all right, what's up? What's going on?
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: You already know now. I was on vacation.
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: I went to go see Wemby in San Antonio. Actually
• 30:10
  Speaker 7: when they played Dallas, mavericks Man, he dribbled off the
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: off the floor like a basketball. Literally, I'm like, man,
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: what comes up? Let's go down the falling out for Tower.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: That was wild. It was. It was a wildfall. It was.
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: It was not he's not a gymnast, that's it's not.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: It doesn't know how to fall. You know, you're supposed
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: to learn how to fall. I guess when you're that tall,
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: it's not really a good way to fall.
• 30:33
  Speaker 6: He tries, he tries to like let off the pass
• 30:36
  Speaker 6: at the very last second and then doesn't give himself
• 30:39
  Speaker 6: enough time to protect himself.
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, he's young. Like Joela said, his head just
• 30:45
  Speaker 2: like bounced off the ground like three times.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: I was like, it's like a basketball bouncing bounced up.
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: And down fall hard.
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: Is it possible that maybe he doesn't have anything in
• 30:55
  Speaker 3: his head and it just bounced his air and it
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: just might have bounce like as.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: I don't know how honest and beat a gain weight
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: like that. But he can't.
• 31:02
  Speaker 3: But you know what the Spurs need, they need to
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: hire And I'm not being I'm not being I'm not
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: kidding here. The Spurs should hire Robbie the Mariner fan
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: as a consultant for Wemby because Robbie will put some
• 31:14
  Speaker 3: weight on Wemby. They hang out together and oh yeah,
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: that's yeah. Yeah, just go Robbie. You know, they can
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: sit together and watch Mariner baseball and and just you know,
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: eat some food and you know, fatten them up.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: That's the way to do it. Yeah.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Hey, no, y'all been missing me for the last two weeks.
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: I've been calling in.
• 31:32

• 31:35
  Speaker 3: mostly it gets like a week.
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: You know, it wasn't a week, but I turned it
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: into two weeks. I made it seem like it was
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: two weeks.
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: Look, oh did you wrap it? You wrapped it around
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: the weekend. That's the key there. Yeah, that's that's a
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: savvy veteran move. That's what you do. You wrap it
• 31:49
  Speaker 3: around the weekend, you get those extra days in there.

• 32:38
