  Speaker 2: in Roseville, Minnesota. Maybe it was Al in Minnesota. I
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: don't think it was Ohio. I think it was Alan, Minnesota.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: One of those guys said, hey, what about DraftKings where
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: the NBA playoffs are here and DraftKings Sportsbook is an
• 3:27

• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Yours and so we're back at it. Our lead this
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: hour from the Land of the Juicy Lucy. That is
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: where we're we're gonna.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Be getting a triple barrel action, and we watched so
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: you would not have to. It's our active kindness, our
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: good myths for the day, and my god, wow, okay,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: you need to cleanse my eyes here, I wash my
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: eyes out. So the Nuggets looking to force a Game
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: seven in the Western Conference opening around playoff series there
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: against the weather beaten Wolves, and you say, well, the
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: teams without their top player, they were difficult for them
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: to win. And this is how a lot of people
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: lose a good amount of money. So if you didn't
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: watch the game, perhaps not. I assume you know by now,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: but maybe not. Jayden McDaniels, Mick Marvelous thirty two points,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: ten rebounds, and someone named Terrence Shannon Junior. I have
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: no idea who that person is. I have no idea
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: who Terrence Shannon Junior is. He had twenty four points
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: in an NBA playoff game, and surprise, surprise, surprise, the
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: injury ravaged Timberwolves said to the Nuggets, they put the
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Nuggets in a deep friar in game six.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Na da na na da. Good bye.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: If you had the Nuggets winning the championship this year,
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: you are a loser with their top three guards missing
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: in action because of injury. The Timberwolves still advanced and
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: they will now take on San Antonio in the second
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: round that starts on Monday, Monday Monday, with chatter that
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Aunt Edwards is not anywhere near returning and he will
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: be out likely that entire series. Good luck on that.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: The better story, though, is in the losing locker room.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: Someone has some explaining to do in the Mile High City. Wow,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: there are losses and then there's that. Yikes, yikes, yikes, yike.
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: This feels like a point of demarcation for the Nuggets.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: So let's get into it here.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: The question who gets the Rocky Mountain Oysters of shame
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: for the Nuggets being eliminated by a beaten and broken
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Wolves team without their top player, their franchise player, Anthony Edwards.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: So my thoughts on this, I've got lost episode hollering
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: James and French Foreign Legion and we will put all
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: of these things together and we are going to make
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: spaghetti and meatballs, is what we're going to do. So
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: a Nikola Jokic, he had had some moments in this
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: series where he didn't look all that good and there
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: were some trolls, the bots, the all that online.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: We're like, OK, what's going on?
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: He was fine.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: He had a typical the Kohlik performance here.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: The issue was the co star showed up and turned
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: out this.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: I guess this was a solo act because the partner
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: in crime there had a full foam clown nose on
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: red nose and then had the shoes. Jamal Murray wasn't
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: just off. He was at the joystick and he was
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: flying the vomit cobbt seventeen shots. I believe he missed
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: thirteen of them in that disaster class while the Nuggets
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: frantically searched for barf bags every time Murray touched the ball.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: And this was not just an egg.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: You understand this performance here in a game where Minnesota
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: was just preparing to go back to a Game seven
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: and they turned into a monster in large part because
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: of Jamal Murray. It wasn't just an egg. Murray was
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: craft services. He catered the entire brunch, the entire brunch.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: And it's not new.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: These vanishing acts pop up every postseason like an unwadded
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: push notification.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: That I don't know, Dad, I don't want that notable.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: Why is he sending me that.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: And so outside of Jokic, Denver played with the energy or.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: The lack of energy.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: They looked like they were just standing around waiting for someone,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: anyone to help.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: Fix the situation.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: They had very little energy, not a lot of shot creation,
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: just a lot, a lot of anything, no, no bite,
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: the fragile Aaron Gordon yet again went snap, crackle, pop
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: and coach David Adelman and that staff that you know,
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: he was the joy when he got in there, that
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: the pride enjoy the Nuggets.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: They had a veteran coach that had won a championship
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: and they there was a falling out, so they got
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: rid of him, and then Adamman.
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: Took over and okay, we're on our way.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: And David Adaman coached Game six like a lost episode
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: of Impractical Jokers.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: It was like, hey, Murr, why don't you go in
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: and coach the team. Okay, I'll go run the NBA team. Okay, yeah,
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: let's do that. And let's while you're at it, can.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: We make sure we turned Jaden McDaniels and someone named
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Terrence Shannon Junior into stars. Sure, no problem, all right,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: good job, Murry, way to go now. Post title Denver.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: You look at what they've done here last couple years,
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Denver fields.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: Now like that was a one off magic trick abra
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: cadabra hocus pocus.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: And expired in real time. You gotta believe the wings
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: of change. We'll be howling through the Rocky mountains this summer.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: I would be shocked if they fire the coach and
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: trade Jamal Murray and just shake it up all right now.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: Meanwhile in Philadelphia we go where another surprise, Tyrese Maxi
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: stepping on. I've had thirty points, ped cheat, Paul George
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: had twenty three. And the Sixers, the Sixers who looked
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: dead in the water, dead in the water, and now they.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Have forced a game seven. What's going on?
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: It's bizarro world here, bizarro world anyway. So the Sixers,
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: the thing that is not supposed to happen happen. So
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: this is just bet against what's supposed to happen. This
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: is actually a popular thing in the gaming world. When
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: everyone thinks something's going to happen, you go the other way.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: For example, we just talked about the Denver Minnesota games
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: as well. Minnesota's without Ann Edwards. So Denver's gonna win, Okay,
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: so bet on Minnesota. The Celtics much better on the
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: road than at home in this era. The Sixers, Yeah,
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: they got the game back to Philadelphia, but you figure, okay,
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: the Celtics will take control. No, so Maxi's the thirty,
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: George the twenty three. The Sixers. They do get it done.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: They force a Game seven with a thirteen point win
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: over the Celtics in the Delaware Valley. There So Philly
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: playing pretty solid from soup to nuts in this game,
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: and the winner take all. Game seven we played Saturday
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: and in Boston. Philadelphia has lost by thirty two points
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: twice in this series.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: The only team in NBA.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: History to win a playoff series after losing two games
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: by thirty plus points was Minneapolis in nineteen fifty nine
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: against the Saint Louis Hawks.
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Now, the better story is, of course, in the losing
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: locker room.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: You know how we operate here, and what a bunch
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: of my sugar in us here the Celtics. So where
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: have things gone wrong? Here's the question, where have things
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: gone wrong? For Joe Mosula's Celtics. So I use my
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: medical training, not a real doctor, I do play one
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: on the radio, So as doctor Mahler my diagnosis. Here
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: the team that I saw on TV, this looks like
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: some old Doc Rivers type Celtics teams, except they just
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: shoot nothing but three point shots. This team has exactly
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: one speed. It's been that way ever since Joe Mizzoula
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: allowed the Nerds to take over, and that's how he
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: got the job. They have one speed, and that's cruise control.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: That's what they got.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: And spoiler alert right now they're basha cruising for a
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: bruising is what they're doing here Philadelphia. The Sixers who
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: look like they were lost, they were getting called out
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: by their coach, by their players holding and then now
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: this has happened.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: Boston did not just misshots Clankety clank Doink. They built
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: a two story deck, a gazebo, and a guesthouse with
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: all of the bricks that they've had recently in this series.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: And we're talking not just about a shooting slump.
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: They're actually going to replace Lucky the Leprechaun with Doink
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: the Clown and Doink the Clown because they've missed.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: Somebody said, Doink Doink doint.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: They jacked up forty one shots the Celtics from three
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: point lang, which for them is very conservative, which would
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: have been fine if they hadn't missed twenty nine of
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: them twenty nine forty one missed. That is less than
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: thirty percent double doink double doint. Now the effort, I think,
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: hollering James phone call the Celtics effort in the middle
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: part of this game.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: They played sleepy.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: They had deep yawns, completely unable to match the Philadelphia energy,
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: and the alpha dogs.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown were just dogs. There was
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: no alpha there are. They needed a flea bath.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: They can bind for a measly thirty five points the
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: top two players on that team, and the shooting not great.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Just inefficient is the word? Inefficient is the word here?
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Getting outscored by twenty two points across the second.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: And third quarters is not a lull.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: That is a medically induced coma for the Celtics in
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: the middle part of that game. And then you got
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Joe Mizzoula, who looked like he brought a weighted blanket
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: to a to a street fight.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: You know, what are you doing here? Well, I'm gonna
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: take a little nap here. Why are you doing that?
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: You should not do that. There were very little adjustments,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: if any, and that's the mindset.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Listen, we have figured it out. We're the smartest people
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: in the room. It's that hubris, and this is how
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: we're going to win. And the Celtics, you can come
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: back and then win, gonna win game seven by twenty
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: points at home, because that's what they do. And you know,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: anybody that criticizes them is gonna get the boot.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: That's what this is. It's that arrogance.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: And so we're not gonna be any kind of adjustments
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: and we're just gonna sit there and if we make
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: the shots, we win.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: If we don't, that's it. And this really was.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: A self inflicted pratfall and that lack of killer instinct,
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: which is a trend in the opening round of the playoffs.
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: You saw that with the Lakers and now the Rockets
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: in position to force a game seven in that series.
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: And you look around you like, there's been a lot
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: of that, a lot of that in this playoffs, and
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: so this is alarming for Boston. They got one more
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: chance and if you win that, nobody will remember this.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: We'll move on. That's it. But you got the oil.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: Spill and it's leaking, and yeah, you better make some
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: headway here. You better make some headway, come up with
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: some kind of weird home brew and figure it out.
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Last word, I would like to thank whatever that was
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: in Atlanta, because I did not need.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: To watch the playoffs. You try to figure out. I
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: watch a little bit of everything, And how did you
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: need to watch this? Og?
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: And a nob with twenty nine points in twenty seven minutes,
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: I'm told that's pretty good. Carl Anthony Towns. I think
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: he took like four shots. He had a triple double
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: his second of the series. Carl Anthony Towns known for
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: offense skipping out on playoff games, but.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: He has not done that lately.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: In the Knickerbockers, the biggest playoff win in franchise history,
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Holy Pat trick Ewing, Where You're gone, Walt Clyde Frasier,
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: Down goes Down, goes fresher as the Knicks poll axe.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: The Atlanta Hawks won forty to eighty nine in Game six.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: The Knicks did not just win this game, they broke
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: the soul of Atlanta, also breaking several NBA records. The
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: end of the first quarter, there were fifty five points scored.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Forty of them were by the team from New York
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: was forty to fifteen at the end of twelve minutes.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: That is the largest ever in the shot clock hero
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: which is the modern era of the NBA, and the
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: forty seven point halftime lead the largest in playoff history.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: No one had ever been that back. This reminded me
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: a bit of that Sun's Mavericks game from a few
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: years ago in Phoenix, when Phoenix was at home and
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: they just got absolutely thunderstruck by Dallas in that game.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: This was even worse than that. Though, this is even
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: worse than that. And so New York whins their third straight.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: They fell behind two games and won Atlanta ahead the lead.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: CJ.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: McCollum was the Nick Killer, the villain, and now he's
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: going to vacation.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: That's it.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: So the back to back one point loss is long gone.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Now the Knicks have moved on and they will play
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: the winner of the Philadelphia Boston. Seriously, we're guaranteed of
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: an I ninety five cord or matchup. Now, the question
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: on this game is this just a bad day at
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: the office for the team from Georgia or is it
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: something deeper? The problem for coach Quinn Snyder's Hawks. So
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: I don't say this lightly because this is the I've
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: been told by people that work in sports, this is
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: the most offensive thing you can say.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: And I'm about to say it, so I might get dumped.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Mark might dump me, and I'm gonna say it anyway,
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: because I'm that kind of guy.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: The Atlanta Hawks quit. They're gutless, they're quitters.
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: The Atlanta Hawks quit in an NBA playoff game at home.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: They gave up. They did, they gave up. Listen, the
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Knicks played well.
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: However, I was taught years ago by a Hall of
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: Fame coach is now dead, Bill Fitch, that if both
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: teams play hard man, play hard mo man, you will
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: never get a game that will be this kind of
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: a blow even twenty points. If you're playing hard fundamental,
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: even if you're under manned, you're still going to be
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: in the game. And they they were, essentially the Knicks
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: escorted by Atlanta and the malfeasance of the Hawks.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: They didn't just collapse.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: They executed a controlled demolition right at the beginning of
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: the game, and Quinn Snyder was holding the detonator. There's
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: that famous quote from Long lost NBA star Michael Ray
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: Richardson who said it best the ship be sinking and
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: tonight it hit the ocean floor. And was Nick Van
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Exell in there for the pregame speech one two three,
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: can't coon here we go boys pregame and the Hawks are.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll take that literally, and they went down.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: They bordered a carnival cruise straight to Crap your Pants
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: Island and I think they might have hired Roberto. Oh
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: buddy's the bus driver Roberto there because they drove the
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Struggle Boss roughly one hundred and fifty miles an hour
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: right into the side of a.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Nuclear power plant. Kubboom.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Jonathan Kaminga a lot of Warrior fans celebrating shot in
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Freude the demise of Jonathan Kaminga had an all time
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: bad performance.
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: Jalen Daniels also terrible in this game. CJ. McCollum did
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: not play well.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: They all took the walk of shame, so that traffic
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: cone defense was problematic. Zero grit and they I think
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: they were calling their mommy and they might have been
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: texting their uncle. I don't know they're texting their uncle,
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: but there was a lot of that going on. There
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: was a lot of that going on.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: Oh wait a minute, here is what is all this about?
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: Like, my god, you really have to try to play
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: at that level of confience.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Do you understand what I'm saying here?
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: And the NBA media has long gone soft, so it's
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: it's not how it used to be and really hold
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: people accountable and all that I'm telling you though.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: There's no other way to say it.
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: They quit that the Atlanta Hawks or a bunch of
• 20:28
  Speaker 2: quitting dogs is what they are. And ultimately they are
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: now qualified the Hawks to join the French Foreign Legion.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: They acted like French soldiers and they surrendered, is what
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: they did. This is not a just a loss.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: This was a total white flag resignation, is what that was.

  Speaker 2: on the Timberwolves? And will there be a Kentucky Derby
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: pickham by the crew?
• 27:46
  Speaker 5: Uh?
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we could do that if you want.
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: We haven't done the pick him in a long time
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: because Lorain hadn't really no sports, So we've kind of
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: stopped doing that because it's very.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: Hard to do it. There's two people, so we've.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: Gone away from the pick him. We got Mark in
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: he knows you know the think Gore think about horse racings.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: You don't need to know anything you just pick names.
• 28:04

• 28:17
  Speaker 2: the third quarter for Gunner. Michael writes and says great
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: a I'm the Mallard monologue to start the show. Now
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: we can all look forward towards sweeps in the Western
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Conference semi finals. Yeah, it does look like we're setting
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: up San Antonio and Oklahoma City, and.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: I just we'd like to see Houston.
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: The American people and the Canadian people and people of
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: the world would like to see Houston beat the Lakers.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: That would be just great, man, that would be really
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: good for everybody. And just send Lebron out as the
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: biggest choke artist of all time.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: My god, that would be wonderful.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Chim and the Ques says a plus on the opening monologue.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Why do I get the feeling that Big Men is
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: sequently rooting for the Roquets to come up?
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: Not secretly. I'm out there, man, I'm in it.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: And anybody in Houston, you know you guys, I know
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: you hate me, but anybody in Houston wants to call
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: up give me advice.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: What do I need to know?
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: I'll be the biggest Rockhets fan you could possibly imagine
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: for two games here, for two games, I'm in. I
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: am absolutely in, one thousand percent, thousand percent.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: How bad for the NBA would that be? If both
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: the Celtics and the Lakers lose these series, it doesn't matter.
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: You know, we're looking at and then we're gonna have
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: I guess the Knicks could conceivably make the finals, but
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: you're either gonna have San Antonio or Oklahoma City.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: It's guaranteed, right, I.
• 29:38
  Speaker 7: Mean, I'm sure they still want both the Celtics and
• 29:40
  Speaker 7: the Knicks in there for as long as possible.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. It's it's tough. It's tough.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: Cowboy drew rights and he had the Mallard Cow. I
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: think the Malard Cow is still alive. I thought it
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: went to slaughter. I believe the Mallard Cow is still alive.
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: He says, get that tweet out so we know what
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: we're dealing with tonight. I got a bunch of stuff.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: Everything ended late. I got things going on. I will
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: get it up as soon as possible. That sounded dirty.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: I will have the rundown up as soon as possible.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the phones. And here's a
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: guy that retired. He could not handle being a celebrity caller.
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: He went away, and he's back. A rare and appropriate
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: appearance by Mark the full name Guy. Hell In, he's
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: an Oregon.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Hello, Mark the full name Guy, Dan.
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: Malor, the snattering nay bob of negativity. So I knew
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: you'd come up with something to say about the Knicks
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: that wasn't very good. You said that the Hawks quick man, they.
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: Were they did now, they gave up.
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: They gave up. They were playing real hard. But to
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: just come out there and say that they quit, and
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: to disregard the fact that they got beat by fifty
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: one point spin hour. Oh, they weren't even trying. You
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: know what the Knicks are for real, they're a pretty
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: good team and.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: A winning a champion. They're not winning a championship.
• 31:09
  Speaker 4: Goodbye, And I got some advice for you, Ben Mahler,

• 31:29
  Speaker 8: All right, this is Mark the full name Guy. Yeah,
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: he's so beaten in terms of the Dodgers. He used
• 31:37
  Speaker 8: to call up and try to like rip on the Dodgers,
• 31:40
  Speaker 8: and they just keep winning the World Series and signing
• 31:41
  Speaker 8: all the good players, and so.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: Now he can't he can't call with that, he's giving
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: some Nick propaganda. Yeah, it's the Knicks are not gonna
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: win the championship this year. It's gonna be Oklahoma City
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: or San Antonio unless seven people get hurt, which the
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: way things are going is not off the table. Is
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: not off the table possibility that seven people will get hurt,
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: and that's the way that's going to go down.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: So that's that's not the case in terms.
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: Of the next And do not see it, do not overreact,
