- 0:00Speaker 1: Eleven straight points, Champegne launches his three punter, Hart yet
- 0:05Speaker 1: another rebound after.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Bruntson and the Spurs won't foul.
- 0:10Speaker 1: It's now twelve consecutive wins for the Knicks as they
- 0:14Speaker 1: take Game one of the NBA Finals their seventh consecutive
- 0:19Speaker 1: road game. One of the great playoff runs in NBA
- 0:22Speaker 1: history is still alive.
- 0:25Speaker 3: It was a tie game with about two and fifteen
- 0:27Speaker 3: to go. Just what was the difference in those last
- 0:30Speaker 3: two minutes?
- 0:31Speaker 4: I think just singing together, wasn't it really our night?
- 0:36Speaker 4: Wasn't really my night most of the night, but we
- 0:39Speaker 4: kept finding a way, keet tipping away as I like
- 0:42Speaker 4: how resilient we were tonight.
- 0:43Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys were down fourteen in the third quarter.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Just what started to turn things around?
- 0:48Speaker 4: Honestly, just think our chemistry is knowing that we have
- 0:50Speaker 4: each other's back. Uh, There's a lot of things extent
- 0:53Speaker 4: those life who have done better, but I think most
- 0:54Speaker 4: of the earlier together, there's really stuff that was really
- 0:57Speaker 4: the biggest difference.
- 0:58Speaker 3: He said offensively, it wasn't a lot of guys nights.
- 1:00Speaker 3: But what impact did Josh Cart What impact did he.
- 1:03Speaker 2: Have on this game? I mean, whatever you need of me.
- 1:05Speaker 2: He's gonna next two. That's just that's just who he is.
- 1:08Speaker 2: I mean, he's gonna find the way.
- 1:10Speaker 3: You look like you got banged up once in the
- 1:13Speaker 3: first quarter, then in the second quarter. How's your body
- 1:15Speaker 3: feeling right now, I'll be all right. And the mindset
- 1:18Speaker 3: is always the still one of the first two on
- 1:21Speaker 3: the road.
- 1:22Speaker 2: You've already done that.
- 1:23Speaker 3: Now what's gonna be your mindset as you start thinking
- 1:25Speaker 3: about game two?
- 1:26Speaker 2: We gotta go back and just watch the things we
- 1:28Speaker 2: can do better. It's a long.
- 1:31Speaker 4: Journey, but I think we have there's a lot of
- 1:34Speaker 4: things that we can do better.
- 1:35Speaker 5: Right, we'll see a Game two in the fourth quarter.
- 1:37Speaker 5: The Spurs only scored nineteen as a team, And don't
- 1:40Speaker 5: look down, but the Knicks are now three wins away
- 1:43Speaker 5: from their first championship in fifty three years. And there's
- 1:47Speaker 5: no one I'm happy of for than Joe Baningo. Joe
- 1:51Speaker 5: is a legendary sports radio guy. He will be in
- 1:55Speaker 5: the Hall of Game before it's all said and done,
- 1:57Speaker 5: as he should be. He is the most pig and
- 2:00Speaker 5: authentic voice, maybe in the history of New York sports.
- 2:03Speaker 5: And I love Chris, I love Mike, I love all
- 2:05Speaker 5: those guys, I love me. But Ben Ingo is he's
- 2:09Speaker 5: the real New York fan and he was definitely afraid
- 2:13Speaker 5: for many years he would die without seeing one of
- 2:18Speaker 5: his four major teams Rangers, Jets, Mets, and Knicks not
- 2:23Speaker 5: win a championship. And now the Knicks are just three
- 2:26Speaker 5: games away from making that untrue. Joe Baningo, good morning, buddy,
- 2:32Speaker 5: how are you?
- 2:33Speaker 6: Oh Man? You know said, look, there's still three wins
- 2:37Speaker 6: to go, but that dragon is losing fire, that fifty
- 2:41Speaker 6: three year dragon. You know, the ghosts is starting to
- 2:44Speaker 6: the starting to open the ground. You know what I mean,
- 2:47Speaker 6: for all the freaking you know, the ghosts of the
- 2:50Speaker 6: fifty three years, that the ground is opening to finally
- 2:53Speaker 6: bury them. That was unbelievable last night. I mean, his team.
- 2:57Speaker 6: I can't say enough. I mean, know this will go
- 3:01Speaker 6: if they win the championship here okay, And you can't
- 3:05Speaker 6: feel much better than you do right now. If you're
- 3:07Speaker 6: a Nick fan, this would be the greatest team I've
- 3:09Speaker 6: ever had. I mean when you consider what they're doing,
- 3:12Speaker 6: I mean, twelve straight wins. You know, they never say
- 3:16Speaker 6: die with this team. Brunston was having a rough night early.
- 3:19Speaker 6: They weren't shooting the ball well early in the game. Uh,
- 3:22Speaker 6: you know, he got banged up. He hurt his knee
- 3:23Speaker 6: a couple of times in this game. And then with
- 3:26Speaker 6: the you know, with the game on the line, when
- 3:28Speaker 6: it's time to win, they win. Brunston goes crazy. And
- 3:32Speaker 6: even after the Spurs came back and had that little
- 3:35Speaker 6: nine to oerd run to take the lead again, with
- 3:37Speaker 6: about two and a half minutes would have left to
- 3:40Speaker 6: play the game, Anobi misses that three. Brunston knocks it
- 3:44Speaker 6: back out to Bridges. Bridges hits three, hits, brunts it
- 3:47Speaker 6: in the corner. He hits the three that puts him
- 3:49Speaker 6: ahead for good. I mean, it's just I don't know
- 3:53Speaker 6: what to say, said I really, I'm I'm I'm really
- 3:55Speaker 6: at a loss for words right now. With this basketball team.
- 3:58Speaker 5: You've never seen the win one, obviously, I saw the
- 4:03Speaker 5: two losses. Both stuck in my memory. Ninety nine, San Antonio, Houston,
- 4:07Speaker 5: ninety four. I was born, I was alive with the
- 4:09Speaker 5: Knicks won both of those. But being born in nineteen
- 4:12Speaker 5: sixty seven, I was only two years old when we
- 4:14Speaker 5: won the first one and only six when we won
- 4:17Speaker 5: the second. And as I told my audience, many many times.
- 4:20Speaker 5: I did not grow up in a basketball household. My father,
- 4:23Speaker 5: God rest his soul, god on Miss Harvey. He was
- 4:26Speaker 5: a baseball and football fan. He was not a winter
- 4:28Speaker 5: sports guy. Those sports in my life came along later
- 4:32Speaker 5: from my next door neighbor Joseph I Evin and going
- 4:34Speaker 5: to Polyprep. I became a diehard Nick and Ranger fan.
- 4:37Speaker 5: So I was young. I wasn't really a basketball fan yet.
- 4:41Speaker 5: So I can't go back and forth with you when
- 4:44Speaker 5: you say if this team wins, it'll be the greatest
- 4:46Speaker 5: team ever. But discussing the last couple of days with
- 4:49Speaker 5: a lot of good sports guys, the difference is like,
- 4:52Speaker 5: for example, yesterday I said to somebody, people are saying Brunson, Oh,
- 4:55Speaker 5: Brian Goeltzader, you know Brian. I said, people are saying,
- 4:58Speaker 5: Brunson maybe the best Nick ever if he plays well
- 5:01Speaker 5: and wins. And he said, no, he's not going to
- 5:03Speaker 5: be because last night check Brasier one two Willi's Reid
- 5:07Speaker 5: one too, And don't forget Clyde Brazier was responsible for
- 5:10Speaker 5: seventy four points in the last game against the Lakers,
- 5:12Speaker 5: so at best he made leap bron ewing and go
- 5:15Speaker 5: to number three. So when you say this is going
- 5:17Speaker 5: to be the best team ever, that's a big statement.
- 5:21Speaker 6: Yeah no, because you know, look I've seen him. Well,
- 5:23Speaker 6: look I've been in Nick fans this nineteen sixty two.
- 5:25Speaker 6: You notice, I used to go to the Old Garden
- 5:27Speaker 6: with my father to see the doubleheads on fifty each street.
- 5:30Speaker 6: I've seen them all. Let's say it. I've seen it,
- 5:33Speaker 6: and you know, I saw Willis, I saw Clyde, I
- 5:35Speaker 6: saw you know, the busher. I saw the pearl obviously
- 5:37Speaker 6: ewing all the way through. Never have I seen a
- 5:41Speaker 6: Nick team play like that. What they are doing is historic,
- 5:43Speaker 6: you know, when you have to I say this all
- 5:45Speaker 6: the time. We saw this with the Red Sox having
- 5:48Speaker 6: to come back from three to zero to beat the
- 5:50Speaker 6: Yankees and finally win a championship. You saw it with
- 5:52Speaker 6: the Cubs. You know they went down three to one
- 5:55Speaker 6: to Cleveland. They finally had to come back to win
- 5:56Speaker 6: a championship. When you will have to slay a dragon,
- 6:01Speaker 6: you know. We saw it with the Rangers, you know,
- 6:03Speaker 6: you know they were down three two to Guarantee by
- 6:06Speaker 6: messy A. You know I have to, I mean, just
- 6:09Speaker 6: all of it, and we go we go crazy right,
- 6:11Speaker 6: you know against the Devils, they were down. They lose
- 6:14Speaker 6: Game five at home to Vancouver, and when everybody's pumped up,
- 6:17Speaker 6: tonight's to night and they have to finally win it
- 6:20Speaker 6: in seven, when you were gonna slay that unbelievable years
- 6:24Speaker 6: and years and years without a championship. You have to
- 6:27Speaker 6: do it. You know, it's got to be done and
- 6:29Speaker 6: in epic fashion. And boy and Knicks are doing it
- 6:32Speaker 6: in epic fashion. And I gotta tell you, sid I
- 6:35Speaker 6: said in Knicks would win the series and six for
- 6:37Speaker 6: the first time after last night, I could see them
- 6:40Speaker 6: sweeping this series. It sounds crazy.
- 6:46Speaker 5: You know what that means? You know what that means?
- 6:47Speaker 5: What in shallah?
- 6:49Speaker 6: No?
- 6:50Speaker 5: Okay, because the mayor, Mom, Donnie, I know you love him,
- 6:53Speaker 5: Oh my favorite.
- 6:55Speaker 6: I love him, just like I love that Cotch come
- 6:59Speaker 6: like I loved Rudy.
- 7:00Speaker 5: Right. So he was asked on a on a morning
- 7:03Speaker 5: show in New York, I guess it's popular, I don't
- 7:05Speaker 5: know Hot ninety seven if the Knicks would win, and
- 7:07Speaker 5: he made the prediction that you just made. He said,
- 7:10Speaker 5: we're playing it's cutting number ten. But take a listen,
- 7:13Speaker 5: Joe to the very last word that the Mayor throws
- 7:17Speaker 5: in after making the prediction yesterday. Now you're a day later, Mam,
- 7:21Speaker 5: Donnie was all over cutt number ten.
- 7:23Speaker 2: What's the prediction?
- 7:24Speaker 5: What we got?
- 7:25Speaker 2: We got Nixon four, breaking the brooms out. What's your
- 7:28Speaker 2: prediction for this series?
- 7:31Speaker 6: I'm saying Nixon for in Shalla?
- 7:35Speaker 5: Do you know what he said there?
- 7:36Speaker 6: No, I have no idea, Sharla McBride from the News Max,
- 7:43Speaker 6: what are you talking about?
- 7:44Speaker 3: No?
- 7:45Speaker 5: In Shallah means what does it mean? Again? God's will? Right,
- 7:50Speaker 5: God's will, God's will? The Knicks will win it in Ford.
- 7:53Speaker 5: But he had to throw in a you know, a
- 7:55Speaker 5: word like that, just to remind everybody, just in case,
- 7:57Speaker 5: you know, in Charlotte. But no, listen, I think a
- 8:01Speaker 5: lot of nick Man's are feeling that way. They gotta
- 8:03Speaker 5: win three more to make it a sweep. Three in
- 8:05Speaker 5: a row. They've already won twelve in a row. Let
- 8:07Speaker 5: me ask you this. First two championships, Red hour Back
- 8:11Speaker 5: one of the great excuse me, Rex Holtzman, right, excuse me? Right?
- 8:16Speaker 2: Was put.
- 8:19Speaker 5: They're both pretty good. But Red Holtzman two championships. You know,
- 8:22Speaker 5: even in losses. Pat Riley, one of the greatest ever.
- 8:25Speaker 5: Pat Riley maybe the greatest basketball man ever, considering his
- 8:29Speaker 5: playing days, his coaching days, and his president job in Miami.
- 8:32Speaker 5: So Riley jump Ban Gundhy terrific coach. But the Knicks
- 8:36Speaker 5: win this Mike Brown, now he's won before. But Lebron
- 8:40Speaker 5: James year one, the immense pressure replacing Thibodeaux when the
- 8:45Speaker 5: Knicks were so close to the NBA finals last year.
- 8:49Speaker 5: Where is Mike Brown? Now this is crazy Mike Brown.
- 8:53Speaker 5: He becomes almost immortal.
- 8:56Speaker 6: Yes, well, Mike Brown did not win that championship with Cleveland.
- 8:58Speaker 6: That was Tyron wu who was a coach when Lebron
- 9:02Speaker 6: finally won. He did coach them in the finals and
- 9:05Speaker 6: actually got lost San Antonio. You know, back in two
- 9:09Speaker 6: thousand and seven, look, I mean Mike Brown. You know,
- 9:13Speaker 6: to me, I didn't see how you why would you
- 9:15Speaker 6: fire Tom Thibodeau. But obviously, and let's remember, let's understand too,
- 9:20Speaker 6: this was not there first. The first choice for them
- 9:22Speaker 6: was Jason Kidd. They wanted Jason Kidd to coach this
- 9:25Speaker 6: team after they got rid of Thibodeau. You know, they
- 9:28Speaker 6: kind of fell into Mike Brown when all was said
- 9:30Speaker 6: and done. And look, I mean Mike Brown, I mean,
- 9:33Speaker 6: what can I say? I mean, first of all, the
- 9:35Speaker 6: fact that he played everybody. You know, Divideau was you know,
- 9:38Speaker 6: would play seven guys maybe and that was it. This
- 9:41Speaker 6: guy has played everybody the bench again last night, Landry
- 9:44Speaker 6: Shammitt was huge. McBride hit some big shots last night.
- 9:48Speaker 6: When Brunston was hurt early in the game, Alvarado came in,
- 9:51Speaker 6: played the point and played it really well. And then
- 9:55Speaker 6: the move that really changed everything in these playoffs did
- 9:59Speaker 6: and that's after they lost Game three to the Hawks
- 10:01Speaker 6: in it down two to one in that first round series,
- 10:04Speaker 6: he decides to run the offense through Carl Anthony Towns,
- 10:08Speaker 6: and that probably is the move of the playoffs and
- 10:12Speaker 6: they have not lost the game.
- 10:14Speaker 5: That's exactly what Gelt sider. That's exactly yes, gelt Salder
- 10:17Speaker 5: said the same exact thing on this show yesterday. He
- 10:19Speaker 5: said he told the same thing to Francesa on his
- 10:22Speaker 5: podcast when they won the offense, like you said, they
- 10:25Speaker 5: decided Game four running through the elbow. He used the
- 10:28Speaker 5: word elbow, call Anthony Towns. So that seems to be
- 10:31Speaker 5: the prevalent conventional wisdom that running the upense through the
- 10:36Speaker 5: big man, which which says that even if Towns is
- 10:39Speaker 5: not going out there and scoring a bunch of points,
- 10:41Speaker 5: which he has consistently throughout the year, that you're really
- 10:45Speaker 5: what he's doing out there may be undervalued because, like
- 10:48Speaker 5: you said, they won the upense through him.
- 10:51Speaker 6: Yeah, and he had a big game again last night.
- 10:53Speaker 6: He had eighteen points, he had twelve rebounds, he had
- 10:55Speaker 6: four assists. He played Wembama very tight man, I got
- 10:59Speaker 6: you know, he played. He talk. He's playing much better
- 11:01Speaker 6: defense than he gets credit for. Gets no calls. By
- 11:04Speaker 6: the way, it's unbelievable how this guy goes to the
- 11:07Speaker 6: basket like he does, gets clobbered. There was one last
- 11:10Speaker 6: night he gets hammered by um Benyama. Of course san
- 11:13Speaker 6: Antonio challenges it and then and they win the challenge.
- 11:18Speaker 6: This guy gets knocked on his rear end wood than anybody,
- 11:21Speaker 6: gets no calls at all. I mean, I said, I'm
- 11:25Speaker 6: I'm speechless. I mean, I don't know what to say
- 11:28Speaker 6: because I just I mean, look, I knew they had
- 11:30Speaker 6: a good team. I knew during the regular season they
- 11:33Speaker 6: were gonna be good. We knew they were making a playoffs.
- 11:35Speaker 6: We knew they're gonna be a top top four seed.
- 11:37Speaker 6: We knew that to have off court in the first round.
- 11:40Speaker 6: You know, I thought they had a chance. I didn't
- 11:42Speaker 6: know what would happen from after winning the first round.
- 11:44Speaker 6: I knew they would. And this is what we're seeing now,
- 11:47Speaker 6: This is this is unbelieve. This is ridiculous what they're doing.
- 11:52Speaker 6: I mean, I, like I said, this is epics.
- 11:54Speaker 5: It epic.
- 11:56Speaker 6: They do sweet by the way, if they do, they do.
- 11:59Speaker 6: And again, look, you know, I expect San Antonio to
- 12:03Speaker 6: come out breathing fire on tomorrow night. But if somehow,
- 12:06Speaker 6: by some miracle, they do sweep this series, I think
- 12:09Speaker 6: they would have the longest playoff winning streak in history
- 12:12Speaker 6: with sixteen in a row.
- 12:13Speaker 5: I think so too. So I know that you watch
- 12:16Speaker 5: every game and you're the smartest, and.
- 12:18Speaker 6: I'm not the smartest.
- 12:19Speaker 5: Yeah, you are when it comes you are.
- 12:21Speaker 6: I've just been around a long time. The other smart
- 12:23Speaker 6: I've just been around a long time.
- 12:24Speaker 5: Well that's true too. You could be both with You're
- 12:26Speaker 5: being very humble, But when was the last time you
- 12:28Speaker 5: actually went in person to a big time sporting event.
- 12:32Speaker 6: Joe, big time sporting event that I've gone in person?
- 12:39Speaker 6: You know, I'm trying to think probably the biggest sporting
- 12:42Speaker 6: event that I've been to recently. That was, you know,
- 12:44Speaker 6: that kind of big event was probably going to the
- 12:47Speaker 6: is going back to, you know, twenty ten to the
- 12:49Speaker 6: AFC Championship game in Pittsburgh at the.
- 12:51Speaker 5: Jets, Low Jets and Steel Its right, a, Biggert, that
- 12:53Speaker 5: was going to be your ransom.
- 12:54Speaker 6: I was that Game five. I was at Game five
- 12:56Speaker 6: when it was to San Antonio. I was in the
- 12:58Speaker 6: garden for that.
- 12:59Speaker 5: Twenty seven years ago. Right. But but what if I
- 13:01Speaker 5: said to you, I can put you right now Monday
- 13:04Speaker 5: Night Game three. Right at worst the Knicks will be
- 13:07Speaker 5: one in one, they would still have home court advantage
- 13:09Speaker 5: and maybe up two games to nothing. I can sit
- 13:11Speaker 5: you right in between in Jim Dolan's box Monday Night,
- 13:15Speaker 5: Game three, Bruce Blinkman and President Donald J. Trump.
- 13:18Speaker 6: Oh, come on, no good, I'm are you serious about
- 13:23Speaker 6: this now? You gotta tell me. You gotta tell me
- 13:26Speaker 6: if you pull them, you gonna tell me said, if
- 13:28Speaker 6: you pulling my chain, or if this is real, you
- 13:31Speaker 6: could you're telling me I can go. I can go
- 13:34Speaker 6: Monday night and be with with the great with the
- 13:38Speaker 6: greatest of all time and the future governor of New York.
- 13:41Speaker 5: Tell you tell me absolutely not. I never said that.
- 13:44Speaker 5: It's a hypothetical. I'm not even going right now. I
- 13:47Speaker 5: gotta pull my own strings.
- 13:49Speaker 2: Now.
- 13:49Speaker 5: All I'm asking is how much would you like to
- 13:51Speaker 5: be there on Monday with President Trump. He's gonna be there,
- 13:54Speaker 5: He's gonna be there game three Monday night. How great
- 13:57Speaker 5: is that gonna be?
- 13:58Speaker 6: I do all believe, But look, I look. All I
- 14:01Speaker 6: want said, you know what. I don't have to be there, Okay,
- 14:04Speaker 6: I got the best seat in the house where I am.
- 14:08Speaker 6: I all I want to do is go to this parade.
- 14:10Speaker 6: I can't tell you how much I've never been to
- 14:12Speaker 6: a parade of my teams. I had to go to
- 14:15Speaker 6: the two Giant parades when they beat the Patriots because
- 14:17Speaker 6: I was working on a fan and I had to
- 14:18Speaker 6: be there to work.
- 14:19Speaker 5: But that was that was. That was in Munachi, New Jersey.
- 14:23Speaker 6: No, no, no, no, these were in New York.
- 14:25Speaker 5: Bro Oh, you didn't go to the You didn't go
- 14:27Speaker 5: to the Ranger parade in ninety four.
- 14:28Speaker 6: Not at the Range of parade. I was not at
- 14:30Speaker 6: the met Parade in eighty six. No, I was not.
- 14:32Speaker 6: But this with me, I had to go to Yankee
- 14:37Speaker 6: Yankee Parading on nine. I had to work that, so
- 14:41Speaker 6: I had to be at three parades of teams that
- 14:43Speaker 6: I do not root for. I was not happy about
- 14:45Speaker 6: being there. I'm gonna tell you right now, man, there'll
- 14:48Speaker 6: be three million. If the knickt win this, there'll be
- 14:50Speaker 6: There'll be three million people, and this will be one
- 14:52Speaker 6: of the biggest Canyon of Heroes parades of all time
- 14:55Speaker 6: because everybody in New York roots for the next time.
- 14:57Speaker 6: It won't due respect. I you know, I feel so
- 15:00Speaker 6: my old part Evan Roberts with the Nets. What a
- 15:02Speaker 6: disaster theay are, but they are like an asset at
- 15:05Speaker 6: the Nets. But everybody in New York roots finish basketball team.
- 15:08Speaker 6: There'll be three million people there. I gotta be at
- 15:11Speaker 6: that parade, bro, I gotta think. I gotta think, no,
- 15:14Speaker 6: I will bet.
- 15:15Speaker 5: I know the Yankees usually draw about to too, but
- 15:18Speaker 5: you're right. They split the town with the Mets, and
- 15:20Speaker 5: the Jets and Giants split the town. There is no
- 15:22Speaker 5: splitting the town here. For every netband, there's a million
- 15:25Speaker 5: Nick fans. So you may be right. Well, I got
- 15:27Speaker 5: bad news for you because last night outside Madison Square Garden,
- 15:31Speaker 5: our city. I know you live in New Jersey, but
- 15:33Speaker 5: our city looked a lot like La or Detroit after
- 15:36Speaker 5: they win. Idiot kids standing on top of the ambulances,
- 15:39Speaker 5: hanging off lights. And I gotta tell you this city,
- 15:43Speaker 5: the city has taken on the mayor's demeanor, which is chaos.
- 15:48Speaker 5: We're a chaotic city. There's no law and order. Whether
- 15:50Speaker 5: you're a Prohamas or a Nick fan, you can run
- 15:53Speaker 5: up and down the street. So I'm hoping that when
- 15:56Speaker 5: we do get because I agree with you that three
- 15:57Speaker 5: million in the conyon of heroes so good in the past.
- 16:01Speaker 5: We're not Detroit, We're not Los Angeles, but just pick
- 16:04Speaker 5: mom Donnie. Everybody feeds off this idiot and I'm nervous
- 16:08Speaker 5: that it will turn into just a mess in New
- 16:11Speaker 5: York City.
- 16:12Speaker 6: Well, I mean that is something you got to be
- 16:14Speaker 6: concerned about, bro. I mean, I can't disagree with you.
- 16:17Speaker 6: I can't disagree. You know, like these watch parties. I mean,
- 16:20Speaker 6: I you know, you see last night the show and
- 16:23Speaker 6: I'm watching a postgame show outside the garden. They got
- 16:25Speaker 6: all these people. I mean, you know, how many these
- 16:28Speaker 6: people really even have an idea why they'd air? I mean,
- 16:30Speaker 6: you know, I don't want to get into it. And
- 16:33Speaker 6: I gotta tell you this. I can I say this though. Okay,
- 16:35Speaker 6: I'm looking at all these celebrities that were in San
- 16:38Speaker 6: Antonio last night, right, all the you know, these guys
- 16:41Speaker 6: who can afford private planes to fly to freaking San
- 16:43Speaker 6: Antonio to go to these games. You know, just think
- 16:46Speaker 6: about the guy that's the hardcourt nick fan his whole life, right,
- 16:51Speaker 6: who would kill to be sitting in the last row
- 16:54Speaker 6: with the Garden for these playoff games? You know, I
- 16:56Speaker 6: hope that some of these guys, Okay, and I'm not
- 16:58Speaker 6: gonna say the names. You know what they are? Uh,
- 17:00Speaker 6: you know, think about that for a second.
- 17:02Speaker 5: They don't know, they don't care kidding me. You think
- 17:05Speaker 5: what I mean?
- 17:06Speaker 6: Bro? You think there's so many people like that. I
- 17:08Speaker 6: know so many guys who are hardcore nick fans. They
- 17:10Speaker 6: can't afford to go even to a regular season game
- 17:13Speaker 6: because it's so damn expensive. Yeah, I mean, I would
- 17:16Speaker 6: like to think that guys like that, that these big celebrities. Again,
- 17:18Speaker 6: I'm not gonna say the names that we all know
- 17:20Speaker 6: who they are. You know, think about that. You have
- 17:22Speaker 6: to think about maybe grabbing one of these guys who's
- 17:25Speaker 6: you know, living living somewhere I don't know, living in
- 17:28Speaker 6: hallm or something. Who's been a huge Nick fan forever. Hey,
- 17:30Speaker 6: let me grab this guy, throw them on my plane
- 17:32Speaker 6: and take them. Nah, that would never happen. We did.
- 17:36Speaker 6: I have to throw that out. I'm watching all these
- 17:38Speaker 6: people last night and stand in and there was a
- 17:40Speaker 6: lot of regular people there as well. Believe me, he
- 17:43Speaker 6: showed up celebrities. That really takes me off. Stade, I
