- 1:53Speaker 3: in on the Nicolay Lottic. I'm talking text line eight
- 1:56Speaker 3: seven seven seven ninety four one ninety seven three. I'm Drew,
- 1:59Speaker 3: Billy here, Armor's here as well, and boys, we got
- 2:02Speaker 3: plenty to get to my day in this five o'clock
- 2:04Speaker 3: Club of ours.
- 2:06Speaker 4: The club goes up right away, and Drew, there's certain
- 2:09Speaker 4: times where the club needs needs a little boost, it
- 2:11Speaker 4: needs a little jolt.
- 2:12Speaker 1: Many a Vegas. Bomb might need a VAKA Red Bull today.
- 2:15Speaker 4: Need a lot of that if you ended up staying
- 2:17Speaker 4: through for what ended up being the greatest comeback in
- 2:19Speaker 4: NBA Finals history last night, because it's gonna need a
- 2:23Speaker 4: highly caffeinated morning in this club or a lot of
- 2:25Speaker 4: energy from the five o'clock clubs, which I believe they're
- 2:29Speaker 4: gonna be fist pumping away and getting us going.
- 2:31Speaker 1: Last night was our reminder of why we watched sports.
- 2:34Speaker 1: And that's it right there.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Ye, it's like that comeback and collapse because it's two sided.
- 2:41Speaker 3: The coin is two sided. It's the greatest comeback and
- 2:44Speaker 3: the greatest collapse in NBA history of sports history. Because
- 2:49Speaker 3: I was watching it when the Spurs are dominating the
- 2:53Speaker 3: first half, I'm thinking to myself, they've got a chance
- 2:55Speaker 3: to be their Bucks, but in reverse losing the first
- 2:58Speaker 3: two at home and running the table and then gonna
- 3:01Speaker 3: it's gonna happen because if it goes to two to two,
- 3:03Speaker 3: back to San Antonio and then all of a sudden,
- 3:05Speaker 3: they're gonna win Game five and it's like this and
- 3:08Speaker 3: then and then it's like lights out and lo and behold,
- 3:11Speaker 3: the Knicks rose from the dead.
- 3:14Speaker 4: M low and behold, you're the worst collapse the Spurs
- 3:17Speaker 4: that hold my beer, because there were folks in Section
- 3:18Speaker 4: two hundred of Madison Square Garden last night that were wondering,
- 3:22Speaker 4: are we about to blow the worst, the biggest? Are
- 3:24Speaker 4: we about to have the worst collapse in finals history?
- 3:27Speaker 4: Are we about to top whatever Draymond and those Warriors
- 3:30Speaker 4: did against Lebron a number of years ago? Because three
- 3:33Speaker 4: to one, uh is that had never happened before. But
- 3:36Speaker 4: this one to lose the first, to win the first game,
- 3:38Speaker 4: two games on the road, and then potentially blow the series,
- 3:42Speaker 4: and two games later you're back to even steven. That's
- 3:46Speaker 4: a tough, tough one to swallow and crazy to think
- 3:50Speaker 4: the team that set records for the most threes and
- 3:53Speaker 4: the best three point shooting percentage, most points in a
- 3:56Speaker 4: first half in finals history found a way to blow
- 4:00Speaker 4: it late. And the Knicks ended up shooting a better
- 4:03Speaker 4: percentage from three than the Spurs did. They outshot him
- 4:06Speaker 4: and more than anything the Spurs. Just as Charles Barkley said,
- 4:10Speaker 4: which makes him once again the graining, defending, undisputed best
- 4:16Speaker 4: commentator in all of sports, that was the dumbest basketball
- 4:20Speaker 4: I've never seen. In my entire life, like and Draymond
- 4:23Speaker 4: can't stop but laughing. He's like, that was the dumbest
- 4:25Speaker 4: half of basketball you may have ever seen. They're up
- 4:27Speaker 4: twenty five, Drew, and they proceed to take eight consecutive threes,
- 4:33Speaker 4: playing it like they're at the Klotchky Center run running
- 4:36Speaker 4: some fives on Sunday in the second half of the
- 4:39Speaker 4: NBA Finals, and they almost were able to snatch it
- 4:42Speaker 4: back steph Castle knocked on a pair of clutch clutch
- 4:45Speaker 4: free throws, but man Wemby stepped up to the line.
- 4:48Speaker 1: He was shaking in his boots.
- 4:49Speaker 4: They're showing it here de Aaron Fox has for a
- 4:52Speaker 4: guy that was a former Clutch Player of the Year,
- 4:55Speaker 4: apparently one of the most inexplicable decisions of all time.
- 4:58Speaker 1: There's under ten second to go. You can run it
- 5:01Speaker 1: into the corner.
- 5:02Speaker 4: They still had a foul to give at that time,
- 5:05Speaker 4: so you chew off another four seconds that there's no
- 5:08Speaker 4: way that Brunson's able to get the shot off. N
- 5:11Speaker 4: ogn Andobi streaking down the field like a wide receiver,
- 5:15Speaker 4: split in cover two and right across the safeties, goes
- 5:18Speaker 4: it with one point two, tips it back in uh
- 5:21Speaker 4: it drew.
- 5:21Speaker 1: There's the uh that had me on the edge of
- 5:24Speaker 1: my seat.
- 5:24Speaker 4: Moment that final possession I legitimately had my I looked
- 5:30Speaker 4: like a like a thirteen year old kid watching a
- 5:32Speaker 4: Christmas movie. On December twenty fourth, I had the blanket
- 5:36Speaker 4: over my arms. I'm sitting up on the edge of
- 5:38Speaker 4: my bed and I'm literally rocking back and forth, not
- 5:42Speaker 4: knowing what I'm watching. It was incredible last night to
- 5:46Speaker 4: be able to see that twenty nine back where the
- 5:48Speaker 4: Knicks and now all of a sudden, they're three one
- 5:49Speaker 4: away and they're they're all went away from their first
- 5:52Speaker 4: title in fifty three years, and Madison Square Gardens sounded
- 5:55Speaker 4: like it last night after the game.
- 5:56Speaker 1: I think they're still in.
- 5:57Speaker 3: There, Like you know, it's like I think the A's
- 5:59Speaker 3: are hitting home runs against the Brewers and fans are
- 6:02Speaker 3: still in Madison Square Garden going why leave?
- 6:04Speaker 2: I mean, that's one you want you want to soak
- 6:06Speaker 2: in forever. You don't want that moment to end. You
- 6:08Speaker 2: want to push the sun back from coming up because
- 6:10Speaker 2: it's like you know, in my youth or even today,
- 6:14Speaker 2: I still do this.
- 6:15Speaker 1: Let's be honest.
- 6:16Speaker 2: I always think about like during games when you're down big,
- 6:19Speaker 2: and I always remember the specific moments, those specific games
- 6:23Speaker 2: when they are big enough comebacks to say, Okay, I'm
- 6:25Speaker 2: gonna keep hope. And this is just another one in
- 6:28Speaker 2: the ledger when I think to myself, all right, no
- 6:30Speaker 2: lead is safe. Well, I remember that twenty nine point
- 6:32Speaker 2: lead the Spurs had in Game four. We'll remember that forever.
- 6:36Speaker 2: A catastrophic collapse and then an historic comeback for the Ages.
- 6:40Speaker 2: Whenever way you look at it, there's nothing to replace it.
- 6:42Speaker 2: And it's like you think about how great sports is,
- 6:46Speaker 2: and you said it drew off the top, and it's
- 6:48Speaker 2: just not a better way to encapsulate the way it
- 6:50Speaker 2: feels because you think about what it means and just
- 6:53Speaker 2: the reality of what it means for this series, for
- 6:56Speaker 2: basketball history. The Knicks now have a commanding lead, they'll
- 6:58Speaker 2: probably win. This is a comeback that will listen. This
- 7:02Speaker 2: stink will will stick with Wemby for a while because
- 7:05Speaker 2: obviously he's the he's the lightning rod for that team,
- 7:08Speaker 2: of the player for that team. But it's just the
- 7:10Speaker 2: way sports can move us to places that nothing else
- 7:13Speaker 2: can do.
- 7:14Speaker 1: Because I see an arena.
- 7:15Speaker 2: Full of fans, a lot of them rich, famous, that
- 7:19Speaker 2: a lot of things can't affect them, like seeing a
- 7:22Speaker 2: brand new Ferrari won't affect a lot of these famous celebrities,
- 7:26Speaker 2: or like a private yacht in Ibiza, or some of
- 7:28Speaker 2: the craziest things that us laid people will never experience. Yeah,
- 7:33Speaker 2: it just random, but those things won't affect them. The
- 7:36Speaker 2: wildest see the wildest things being around, the craziest lips.
- 7:40Speaker 2: But a game like that move them like nothing else could,
- 7:44Speaker 2: like nothing money could buy. That's what sports does for us.
- 7:47Speaker 2: That's what sports means for us in society. And that's
- 7:50Speaker 2: just the power that it has. So when you see
- 7:53Speaker 2: Jerry Seinfeld's jaw dropping and Taylor Swift jumping around like
- 7:56Speaker 2: you know, like she's ten years old, it's just amazing
- 8:00Speaker 2: to see the power sports ash. And we saw a
- 8:02Speaker 2: display in the grandest stage in the Cathedral and the MSG.
- 8:06Speaker 1: And and it was tough.
- 8:08Speaker 4: When Taylor Swift is doing the happy Dance with the
- 8:11Speaker 4: two young ladies who are singer songwriters who are very
- 8:13Speaker 4: much famous as well.
- 8:15Speaker 1: Very famous intelligent Laura told me about them.
- 8:16Speaker 2: I didn't know who they were, but she was telling me, okay, good,
- 8:19Speaker 2: I'm glad somebody she's I'm glad somebody knew who they were.
- 8:21Speaker 1: But good for them.
- 8:23Speaker 4: Good good pop to your social media when you get
- 8:25Speaker 4: to go, pull up court side, sit right next to
- 8:27Speaker 4: the broadcast. Grew with your girl, Taylor Drew. She was
- 8:31Speaker 4: doing the happy dance when they were down twenty two.
- 8:33Speaker 4: I think they cut it to twenty two, and all
- 8:35Speaker 4: of a sudden, I thought, this is gonna be the
- 8:37Speaker 4: picture right next to Chris Paul hits huge three to
- 8:41Speaker 4: cut the lead to thirty five. It felt like it
- 8:44Speaker 4: was a great moment in time of Wow. Okay, they
- 8:47Speaker 4: can celebrate and enjoy this one now. But the Spurs
- 8:51Speaker 4: just continued to let them in the game, let them
- 8:54Speaker 4: in the game and make an inexplicable mistake after inexplicable
- 8:59Speaker 4: mistake in team against a young one. You you, you
- 9:02Speaker 4: guys have both been there. I've never been to MSG
- 9:05Speaker 4: and Kenny said it this way, Drew of the folks
- 9:07Speaker 4: that were hanging out there the whole time. This is
- 9:09Speaker 4: a stadium that you can't wait to beat the traffic
- 9:12Speaker 4: out of. This is a state. This is a stadium
- 9:15Speaker 4: that you can't wait to get up out of there
- 9:16Speaker 4: because you are racing to the subway racing to get
- 9:19Speaker 4: out of there. And uh, I don't know that anybody
- 9:22Speaker 4: was trying to leave last night.
- 9:24Speaker 3: Not in this case. No, absolutely epic. What what a moment?
- 9:28Speaker 3: And I mean, yeah, you wonder. Okay, a lot of
- 9:32Speaker 3: ball game left, right, They still got to win the
- 9:34Speaker 3: last one. The toughest one to win is the one
- 9:36Speaker 3: to clinch. But you do get the vibes like we got,
- 9:40Speaker 3: like how do you come back from that?
- 9:42Speaker 1: I don't know. I would like the Calves too.
- 9:45Speaker 4: We said that about the Calves for sure from that
- 9:48Speaker 4: and we all thought the Calves were headed towards massive changes.
- 9:51Speaker 4: Now they're they're going to run that thing back and
- 9:54Speaker 4: find the same result coming up next year. But like
- 9:56Speaker 4: the Spurs are young, they'll definitely grow, they'll learn things.
- 9:59Speaker 4: But there's there's leads like sixteen nothing up in the
- 10:04Speaker 4: NFC Championship game on the road that you sit back
- 10:08Speaker 4: and think of, and you don't know how that group
- 10:13Speaker 4: gets back.
- 10:13Speaker 1: Now, this one's too young, I think to not have
- 10:16Speaker 1: that moment.
- 10:17Speaker 4: However, there's one piece that won't be back right, Like
- 10:20Speaker 4: I don't know how Dearon Fox is a member of
- 10:22Speaker 4: the San Antonio Spurs last year and I think there
- 10:25Speaker 4: were a lot of folks that didn't think that was
- 10:27Speaker 4: gonna happen, regardless of what the outcome was here. But
- 10:30Speaker 4: there's there's a lot of times where someone's gonna have
- 10:33Speaker 4: to go, someone's gonna have to get up out of
- 10:36Speaker 4: here after what we just witnessed. And they're not doing
- 10:38Speaker 4: it to the coach because of where they went, and
- 10:41Speaker 4: they're not doing it to certain star players. But mister
- 10:44Speaker 4: number four, can we get that key card to the
- 10:45Speaker 4: hotel lot in the hotel lobby on the way out,
- 10:48Speaker 4: because that's a tough one to come back from. Brandon
- 10:51Speaker 4: Bostik didn't return in twenty fifteen. I can't imagine de
- 10:53Speaker 4: Aaron Fox is coming back after that one last.
- 10:55Speaker 2: I don't think they care about as clutch Player of
- 10:57Speaker 2: the Year of trophy right now. The thing about Deeron
- 11:00Speaker 2: is he's not really He was like the veteran of
- 11:02Speaker 2: that young group. So they're not gonna break up the
- 11:05Speaker 2: core if they let him go. Obviously they can let
- 11:07Speaker 2: you know, you can kind of move off that. Yeah,
- 11:09Speaker 2: a bad look, well, a bad moment for him, but
- 11:12Speaker 2: it was actually a group of bad moments. I would say,
- 11:15Speaker 2: down the stretch and Wenby didn't really play all that
- 11:18Speaker 2: great and down the stretch he did hit a shot
- 11:20Speaker 2: I think to put him up seven, right, but other
- 11:22Speaker 2: than that, he was like he missed nine of ten
- 11:24Speaker 2: at one point. And then the free throws you talked
- 11:26Speaker 2: about Billy just you have to do a lot wrong
- 11:29Speaker 2: when you collapse like that from a lead like that,
- 11:32Speaker 2: but you also have to do a lot right on
- 11:33Speaker 2: the other side, and you have to have a little
- 11:35Speaker 2: bit of luck. I know Mike Brown talked him about
- 11:37Speaker 2: that and the tip been definitely. You know, it worked out.
- 11:40Speaker 2: You know, you know he was flying at the right time.
- 11:42Speaker 2: But you also have to have performances. Oh, g An Andobi.
- 11:45Speaker 2: That was a role player performance.
- 11:46Speaker 1: For the Ages.
- 11:47Speaker 2: That's gonna be one of legends that people talk about.
- 11:50Speaker 2: Even Hosey Alvarado had some big moments in the fourth quarter.
- 11:53Speaker 2: That was huge, and that's that's something he'll take with
- 11:55Speaker 2: him forever. I mean, if nothing else happens in his career,
- 11:58Speaker 2: you know, he'll be able to talk about that one
- 11:59Speaker 2: night at the garden.
- 12:00Speaker 1: I helped him. I will tell you to be a champion.
- 12:02Speaker 2: And he's a New Yorker too, right, If I'm not mistaken,
- 12:04Speaker 2: so that's gotta be a big deal.
- 12:05Speaker 1: But I don't know.
- 12:06Speaker 2: It's just certain things happen in sports that you can't explain,
- 12:10Speaker 2: and that was one of them. And that's what makes
- 12:11Speaker 2: it great. And as much as we thought, like this
- 12:14Speaker 2: one's over, it's twenty nine points, you know, a twenty
- 12:17Speaker 2: nine point comeback in the NBA Finals. I remember in
- 12:20Speaker 2: two thousand and eight there was a big comeback in
- 12:21Speaker 2: that Lakers Celtics series. It doesn't quite meet this one
- 12:26Speaker 2: though in terms of total points. There's been some great ones.
- 12:29Speaker 2: But in a place like that, in a situation like this,
- 12:32Speaker 2: with a team like that, an immedia market like that,
- 12:35Speaker 2: in an audience and a group of media that want
- 12:38Speaker 2: to see the Knicks do this, you just can't script
- 12:41Speaker 2: it any better than that.
- 12:42Speaker 1: The first home team to win a game.
- 12:44Speaker 4: In the series two guys incredible twenty four point difference
- 12:48Speaker 4: in Game four Boston against Los Angeles in two thousand
- 12:51Speaker 4: and eight, Boston eras that one in the second quarter,
- 12:54Speaker 4: won the game by six, eventually securing the championship in
- 12:57Speaker 4: six games. The Rockets, down twenty in the first half,
- 13:01Speaker 4: came back and won in overtime against the Magic in
- 13:03Speaker 4: ninety five. I know you're stunned. Nick Anderson game. I
- 13:06Speaker 4: think both of those two teams winning the title. I
- 13:07Speaker 4: thought I would be floored if.
- 13:09Speaker 2: Somehow s Heyan Antonio is able to come back off
- 13:11Speaker 2: the mat.
- 13:12Speaker 4: You're just on You're not not able to come back
- 13:14Speaker 4: from those kinds of games. And drew the Alvarado one
- 13:16Speaker 4: that Arman brought up. It almost felt like that was
- 13:19Speaker 4: bigger because it allowed Brunson to not have to bring
- 13:23Speaker 4: the ball up against ninety four feet of pressure all
- 13:26Speaker 4: night long. Huge and give him some kind some more
- 13:29Speaker 4: legs laid into the game. That's a tough one because
- 13:32Speaker 4: it's like when you're down big in baseball, you can't
- 13:34Speaker 4: step up into the batter's box trying to hit a
- 13:36Speaker 4: seven run home run. Last I checked it in invent
- 13:39Speaker 4: those just like this. There's no twenty one point shot
- 13:42Speaker 4: that's gonna slice the lead. But you make a five
- 13:45Speaker 4: to seven point run and all right, they come back,
- 13:48Speaker 4: hit a three, go back, get five or seven. Jalen
- 13:50Speaker 4: Brunson talked about it after the game, the way that
- 13:52Speaker 4: they just kept shipping away. It sounds mundane, it sounds cliche,
- 13:56Speaker 4: but it's the only way you're able to get one
- 13:58Speaker 4: of those things done right.
- 14:00Speaker 3: One of the things I dislike most, and there's a
- 14:03Speaker 3: lot about the current sports culture is the recency bias
- 14:07Speaker 3: and everything that happens now is the greatest ever, and
- 14:10Speaker 3: like this is but for a team with a rich
- 14:13Speaker 3: and but a rich history yet not exactly a history
- 14:17Speaker 3: of success. If and when the Knicks do take the
- 14:23Speaker 3: Larry O'Brien Trophy, there's a strong case to made. They
- 14:26Speaker 3: made that Jalen Brunson is mister Nick above all the others,
- 14:30Speaker 3: all the greats. He's going to be Clyde, all the greats,
- 14:34Speaker 3: like every all the great players ahead the guys that
- 14:36Speaker 3: never won. And I'm not a ring guy, and I'm
- 14:38Speaker 3: not going to say that, well, he's already been had
- 14:40Speaker 3: a bigger impact than Patrick Ewing or something. But I mean,
- 14:44Speaker 3: look at the way they celebrate John Starks one hundred
- 14:49Speaker 3: times the player John Starks.
- 14:50Speaker 1: Were not even close. Yeah, it's like you can't and
- 14:54Speaker 1: especially with the go over fourteen games after I.
- 14:56Speaker 3: Mean, I remember reading about those knixt teams, like the
- 14:59Speaker 3: seventies teams with Bill Bradley and Dave de Busher and
- 15:02Speaker 3: Willis Willis, Jerry Lucas King, yeah, and oh, Bernard King
- 15:06Speaker 3: came later, but he was. But I mean, but they're
- 15:10Speaker 3: revered and celebrated. But what Brunson's doing and has done
- 15:15Speaker 3: puts him ahead of all. It was like, tell me,
- 15:19Speaker 3: make a case for me that somebody on the Knicks
- 15:21Speaker 3: is better and more impactful than Jalen brunts So you can't.
- 15:24Speaker 1: And it's not. And again I hate the recency bias
- 15:27Speaker 1: and the rest of judgment.
- 15:28Speaker 4: But he's He's there, He's it, Drew, he already right
- 15:33Speaker 4: now is the most famous New York athlete for like
- 15:37Speaker 4: a sub section of the fan base, right if you're
- 15:40Speaker 4: under the age of twenty five, So Eli Manning is
- 15:43Speaker 4: probably pretty cool. You probably you probably really really enjoyed him. Uh,
- 15:46Speaker 4: maybe there was there. Maybe there's a little bit of
- 15:48Speaker 4: taste for Aaron Judge. Not in the playoffs. Ye, he's
- 15:51Speaker 4: not winning championship, not winning championships, like he is the
- 15:55Speaker 4: most famous New York athlete. If you're probably under the
- 15:57Speaker 4: age of twenty five, and I think, I again, I'm
- 16:00Speaker 4: with you.
- 16:00Speaker 1: I hate the we got to crown. This is the
- 16:02Speaker 1: greatest thing ever.
- 16:04Speaker 4: Tell me a better free agent signing than Jalen Brunce
- 16:07Speaker 4: I'll see when he consider the price in the history
- 16:11Speaker 4: of the league, from a team that was toiling in
- 16:13Speaker 4: mediocrity and a laughingstock to where their loudest fan in
- 16:16Speaker 4: the world was just gobsmacked when they started clearing cap space.
- 16:22Speaker 2: And Steven a is on ESPN saying, this is Jalen Brunson.
- 16:26Speaker 2: Who are we thinking this is?
- 16:28Speaker 4: And all of a sudden, three years later, he's the
- 16:31Speaker 4: clutchest player in the world, He's the best fourth quarter
- 16:33Speaker 4: player in the league.
- 16:34Speaker 1: And they win one more game.
- 16:37Speaker 4: These are always the most subjective conversations ever, and we
- 16:41Speaker 4: leave them to the dps and the cow herds that
- 16:43Speaker 4: come out right after us. Hard to say he wouldn't
- 16:47Speaker 4: be like the face of the league right like he
- 16:50Speaker 4: Wemby is coming in and worldwide he'll be the one
- 16:52Speaker 4: you think of. Obviously, there's still Lebron and Steph hanging
- 16:56Speaker 4: out there, but Jalen Brunson is the father in law's
- 16:59Speaker 4: favorite player. Plays off two feet that's pretty small, undersized,
- 17:05Speaker 4: doubted second round pick, doesn't talk well spoken.
- 17:09Speaker 1: He's the guy that if.
- 17:10Speaker 4: You're now going to be having an eleven year old
- 17:13Speaker 4: and you're watching a basketball.
- 17:15Speaker 1: Game, say you want to be modeling yourself after this
- 17:17Speaker 1: guy right married to his high school sweetheart, married to
- 17:19Speaker 1: a people.
- 17:22Speaker 2: People like that, you know, And I think you have
- 17:24Speaker 2: a point, because it was supposed to be Wemby if
- 17:27Speaker 2: they won this series, like it was, everyone was ready
- 17:30Speaker 2: to say Wemby's the face of the league because they
- 17:32Speaker 2: beat Oklahoma City, which was presumed to be the favorite.
- 17:35Speaker 2: SGA is a star MVP that nobody really wants to
- 17:38Speaker 2: make their star. In the end, we would decide, I
- 17:39Speaker 2: guess the NBA's decided that, like the NBA media machine
- 17:42Speaker 2: is like, we don't want to deal with SGA anymore.
- 17:44Speaker 2: He flops too much and we don't want to make
- 17:45Speaker 2: him the face. So it was like, all right, Wemby's
- 17:47Speaker 2: ready now to be the face. And he was like
- 17:49Speaker 2: a funny thing happened on the way to the legendary status,
- 17:53Speaker 2: A funny thing happened on the way to the podium,
- 17:55Speaker 2: and it was you're right, Billy Jaalen Bruns of the
- 17:57Speaker 2: New York Nicks. That's a great point, Jaylen, since that guy,
- 18:00Speaker 2: I mean, if the Knicks win the title, he's the
- 18:02Speaker 2: guy of the Knicks. I mean, obviously there's Carl Anthony
- 18:05Speaker 2: Towns and all these other guys. But yeah, I think
- 18:07Speaker 2: I think that's a good point. And in a lot
- 18:08Speaker 2: of ways, to your point, Drew, it kind of resolves
- 18:11Speaker 2: the unrequited, you know, like dreams that the Ewings and
- 18:16Speaker 2: the Starks never reached, and those guys can be honored again.
- 18:19Speaker 2: It's sort of like when the Red Sox finally won,
- 18:21Speaker 2: they brought back Buckner, and when the Cubs finally won,
- 18:23Speaker 2: they brought back all these guys that didn't get it done.
- 18:26Speaker 2: It's almost better for the legacy of the Ewings of
- 18:28Speaker 2: the world for these guys to win, because then it's like,
- 18:31Speaker 2: all right, you guys got your Knicks title that you
- 18:33Speaker 2: can never you know, quite get. I think some people
- 18:36Speaker 2: look at it that way too, But yeah, it's definitely
- 18:38Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson. At that point, how can you argue it.
- 18:41Speaker 2: They just have to win one more, I mean, and
- 18:43Speaker 2: it seems like there's no way back from a loss
- 18:45Speaker 2: like that. Now we've seen now we're saying this seems
- 18:48Speaker 2: the craziest things happen in sports.
- 18:50Speaker 4: But we've also seen now something else. The Knicks have
- 18:54Speaker 4: had three chances to close out series. In the closeout
- 18:59Speaker 4: game against the Atlanta Hawks. They won a resounding one
- 19:02Speaker 4: forty to.
- 19:03Speaker 1: Eighty nine on the road.
- 19:05Speaker 4: Yeah, they went to Philadelphia and won one forty four
- 19:09Speaker 4: to one fourteen, and then they went to Cleveland to
- 19:12Speaker 4: clinch one thirty to ninety three. So the craziest thing
- 19:17Speaker 4: in sports would be this game being close coming up,
- 19:19Speaker 4: because when they've had a chance, Drew to advance and
- 19:22Speaker 4: finish somebody off, they haven't just put the throat on
- 19:26Speaker 4: the dying dog. They went, they hit a Halcgan leg
- 19:30Speaker 4: drop on it. Then they went and threw it into
- 19:32Speaker 4: a dumpster and then let that dumpster on fire. I mean,
- 19:34Speaker 4: like they have been as ruthless and as brutal as
- 19:38Speaker 4: you could be in a moment like this, and how
- 19:41Speaker 4: many uh I almost tweeted out last night, but I
- 19:45Speaker 4: didn't want people to know if I was, you know,
- 19:46Speaker 4: too bleary eyed and lacking of sleep late that's okay,
- 19:50Speaker 4: what do we think? Cause when there's one of these moments,
- 19:52Speaker 4: there's there are probably a lot of young Bretts running
- 19:55Speaker 4: around in nineteen ninety seven, right, Yeah, and nine or
- 19:58Speaker 4: ten months after that after that game January, there are
- 20:00Speaker 4: probably a few more Reggies in the state than you
- 20:02Speaker 4: would have thought even somebody got a little bit uh aggressive,
- 20:06Speaker 4: and they're like, you know what, Roy Lee, get a
- 20:09Speaker 4: Larroy baby in here.
- 20:10Speaker 3: Uh.
- 20:10Speaker 4: I don't know many are many are gonna go with
- 20:13Speaker 4: an O G baby because that might be a tough
- 20:15Speaker 4: one to line up. But I gotta think there's gonna
- 20:18Speaker 4: be a lot in the New York, New Jersey area
- 20:20Speaker 4: drew with the name Jalen once again.
- 20:22Speaker 2: Because it's one of the hottest names in the baby books.
- 20:25Speaker 1: A lot that are gonna be wanting to throw that
- 20:26Speaker 1: one in again. Well, I'd love to see Carl make
- 20:29Speaker 1: a comeback, you know.
- 20:30Speaker 4: That could be could be a Carl the k Yeah,
- 20:33Speaker 4: maybe Alvarado's after last night.
- 20:35Speaker 2: There's I mean, I'm telling you how many Desmonds were born?
- 20:39Speaker 2: It should we said more Desmonds.
- 20:41Speaker 1: Could have been a few Desmonds.
- 20:42Speaker 4: Maybe Mark's after Mark Bryan or that that pick that
- 20:46Speaker 4: he had prior, A great pick, a great pick.
- 20:48Speaker 1: Number thirty nine in that game.
- 20:49Speaker 3: Tough airline, but great pig you Mark, You mentioned Mike
- 20:54Speaker 3: bryor I don't know, another another backhanded slap at the
- 20:58Speaker 3: scouting complex like you see this in the NFL lot
- 21:00Speaker 3: NBA as as well, like you always do these redrafts
- 21:04Speaker 3: five or six years after a draft, your redraft. Well,
- 21:08Speaker 3: the Knicks in twenty eighteen, the class that produced Brunson
- 21:11Speaker 3: and Sga. The Knicks took Kevin Knox the second Kentucky.
- 21:17Speaker 3: I'm sure I want to done at Kentucky. They took
- 21:20Speaker 3: him ninth. Sga was taken eleventh. Oh god, and they
- 21:23Speaker 3: didn't have a chance to get Brunson because Brunson went
- 21:26Speaker 3: two picks ahead of when they took Mitchell Robinson.
- 21:30Speaker 1: Okay, well, you know what. Mitchell Robinson had a nice
- 21:32Speaker 1: flag or followed. But that kind of changed one. I
- 21:35Speaker 1: don't know if it change one met him, but it was.
- 21:37Speaker 1: It was. I mean I would say, Wu Tang Clan. Uh,
- 21:40Speaker 1: maybe change moment.
- 21:41Speaker 3: W Tang Clan is the unwritten I got to play
- 21:44Speaker 3: an unsung hero of the entire night.
- 21:47Speaker 4: How do they play in such a silent MSG? I
- 21:49Speaker 4: don't think I've ever heard that building as quiet as possible.
- 21:52Speaker 3: And then close it up by saying Nixon five like
- 21:55Speaker 3: makive Man and ghost Face, we're all over it.
- 21:58Speaker 2: And they and they came out to Annie up by MLP,
- 22:01Speaker 2: which was also a New York banger. That was Game
- 22:04Speaker 2: three though maybe I actually did they come on to that.
- 22:06Speaker 2: It's just too many to pick from. I'm playing Biggie now.
- 22:08Speaker 2: But hey, by the way, Kevin Knox is playing for
- 22:11Speaker 2: the Windy CD Bulls and the G League belief.
- 22:12Speaker 1: All right, oh wow, okay, check, that's amazing. Hey, you're
- 22:17Speaker 1: in the five o'clock Club. We're hanging out here.
- 22:19Speaker 3: We hope everybody made it through the weather yesterday and
- 22:22Speaker 3: our friends up in Theoressa, Lomira Horricon had a rough
- 22:26Speaker 3: go of it another around today. It's getting a little
- 22:29Speaker 3: bit old having people, you know, storm damage and stuff
- 22:34Speaker 3: and a lack of power.
- 22:35Speaker 1: In fact, our hunter Bombart's suffering from a power outage.
- 22:37Speaker 3: You might not be able to join us today, but
- 22:39Speaker 3: we don't need to talk about the Brewers last year
- 22:41Speaker 3: and an off day.
- 22:42Speaker 2: No.
- 22:42Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll muddle through. We'll get we'll get to that eventually.
- 22:46Speaker 3: But we're glad you're hanging out with us as we
- 22:49Speaker 3: have a game for the Ages to talk about and
- 22:51Speaker 3: some developments with the Green Bay Packers to discuss. So
- 22:54Speaker 3: stay tuned. We're glad you're with us in the five
- 22:56Speaker 3: o'clock Club. You're in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio Wisconsin.
- 23:04Speaker 1: About to cry, not because obviously there's one more, but.
- 23:09Speaker 5: I'm in Madison Square Garden in the fourth quarter with
- 23:13Speaker 5: playing with these guys and we're playing for something special.
- 23:16Speaker 5: I would just it's just as excited, really something I
- 23:19Speaker 5: couldn't put in words. And like I said, we could,
- 23:23Speaker 5: we could get excited and enjoyed this, but we got
- 23:25Speaker 5: one more to do, So that's the main goal.
- 23:30Speaker 3: Jose Alvarado the next bringing us back after the unbelievable,
- 23:34Speaker 3: unfathomable twenty nine point comeback last night at Madison Square Garden.
- 23:41Speaker 3: And as a Brooklyn guy, that does have to be
- 23:43Speaker 3: a a like a pinch me moment. I'm playing in
- 23:46Speaker 3: the NBA Finals in Madison Square Garden. Also, he's like,
- 23:50Speaker 3: wait a second, I'm I'm on the floor. Oh sweet, okay, coach,
- 23:53Speaker 3: let's go. Let's go, coach. I mean, I don't know
- 23:56Speaker 3: anybody necessarily thought the Jose Alvarado button was the one
- 24:00Speaker 3: that would push to help propel him. Og Ananobi was
- 24:04Speaker 3: the biggest part of it, and the Aaron Fox forgetting
- 24:06Speaker 3: how to play basketball in the final minutes, but Albarado drew,
- 24:10Speaker 3: just giving them a little bit of reprieve off of
- 24:13Speaker 3: Brunson having to take the ball up the entire time.
- 24:15Speaker 4: I felt like it freshened Brunson up. He had maybe
- 24:18Speaker 4: his best statistical shooting performance of the series, twelve for
- 24:22Speaker 4: twenty five, the first time he's come close to fifty percent,
- 24:26Speaker 4: and it felt like he had maybe a little bit
- 24:28Speaker 4: more legs and some longer spurts of being as effective
- 24:34Speaker 4: into that into the fourth quarter and then took it over.
- 24:36Speaker 4: But man, once that thing got down to fifteen, you
- 24:38Speaker 4: can almost feel like, Okay, there's gonna be something special here.
- 24:41Speaker 4: It's it feels like this place is up and up,
- 24:46Speaker 4: the up for grabs and up for something special. And
- 24:49Speaker 4: you know when you have so many celebrities throughout the
- 24:53Speaker 4: celebrity row sheet was like three pages long. Last night
- 24:55Speaker 4: I saw somebody post it there, James Dolan, congratulations, you
- 25:00Speaker 4: made up for it.
- 25:01Speaker 1: You got yourself back, You got yourself back up.
- 25:03Speaker 4: Off the mat and the Knicks now are one went
- 25:06Speaker 4: away from immortality or I mean, there were gonna be
- 25:09Speaker 4: some fans walking out of that stadium saying, how on
- 25:12Speaker 4: earth did we just nix all over ourselves and get
- 25:15Speaker 4: blown out by the San Antonio Spurs. You knew there
- 25:19Speaker 4: was gonna be one blowout there in the middle of
- 25:21Speaker 4: the that halftime, my mother texted me, noted NBA fan
- 25:26Speaker 4: and just said, Wow, this basketball game is awful.
- 25:30Speaker 1: This text. After the game, I said, it got better,
- 25:33Speaker 1: it got better, it got better, it got a little better.
- 25:36Speaker 4: I just got the correspondence. I fell asleep. Don't worry,
- 25:38Speaker 4: just like a lot of folks did. But felt good
- 25:40Speaker 4: for Mike Breen last night. I mean, he wanted a
- 25:43Speaker 4: bang so hard pause, dude. He was sitting there waiting
- 25:47Speaker 4: to bang, waiting to and then he finally was able
- 25:51Speaker 4: to unleash a couple of great ones there at ninety
- 25:53Speaker 4: nine ninety five, and he had himself a beautiful, beautiful moment.
- 25:58Speaker 2: I'm one of the OG three, right, I mean, I
- 26:01Speaker 2: could be wrong. Maybe it was Jalen Brunson's, but he did.
- 26:03Speaker 4: Have a he hit he hit one off of the
- 26:05Speaker 4: brunts and three as well, but he gave he gave
- 26:08Speaker 4: one on the I think it was Antonobe's three in
- 26:09Speaker 4: the corner that cut it to four.
- 26:11Speaker 1: And that was the first time.
- 26:13Speaker 4: And I was sitting there like he was the kid
- 26:15Speaker 4: in that meme where his face is just welling up,
- 26:18Speaker 4: kind of like Armon when you talk about h the
- 26:20Speaker 4: Baseball Hall of Fame and some of the guys that
- 26:23Speaker 4: he hates and the Hey, how do you feel about
- 26:24Speaker 4: Harold Bain's armon? Right, so like you get that face, God, Drew,
- 26:30Speaker 4: that was Mike. That was Mike Breenson right there at
- 26:33Speaker 4: half court. I want to bang so hard. I want
- 26:35Speaker 4: to drop this thing so bad, so bad, But he
- 26:37Speaker 4: held off.
- 26:38Speaker 1: He held off, and.
- 26:40Speaker 3: Then it hit totally different. That was That was chef's
- 26:42Speaker 3: kiss last night to that broadcast booth, it was, Yeah.
- 26:46Speaker 1: You're right, Mike Breen, what a moment for him.
- 26:48Speaker 4: What it's just lifelong Knicks fan getting to call it
- 26:52Speaker 4: and for him having to be down the middle. But
- 26:55Speaker 4: you know in the back when he came back at
- 26:58Speaker 4: the end of halftime, Drew, you could tell the despair
- 27:02Speaker 4: in his voice.
- 27:03Speaker 1: Well going down back the yea and it was looking
- 27:07Speaker 1: bleak for them. I mean, I mean, but you know what,
- 27:09Speaker 1: I think he would have I think he'd have done
- 27:11Speaker 1: that even if it was you know, clean whoever it was,
- 27:13Speaker 1: because it was so bad. Yeah.
- 27:15Speaker 3: Because those guys their interest is like they feel the
- 27:17Speaker 3: game a bad game. Yeah, It's like they can just
- 27:19Speaker 3: hear the TV's the channels clicking like that's not what
- 27:23Speaker 3: they want, and like.
- 27:25Speaker 4: When you see a twenty nine point difference, it's like, wow, Okay,
- 27:29Speaker 4: we got all this studying, this beautiful ran and this
- 27:31Speaker 4: is the dude of the game that we're putting out here.
- 27:33Speaker 1: Awesome, Thanks guys. There was some frustration, no doubt, and
- 27:37Speaker 1: of all the of all.
- 27:38Speaker 2: The guys that in the media, you know, New York
- 27:41Speaker 2: and all this that will make it about them, he's
- 27:43Speaker 2: the one that the last last one that doesn't.
- 27:46Speaker 1: Like that's what's great about Mike Breen. Of course Steven A.
- 27:47Speaker 2: Smith's gonna be in there and everyone's gonna have their
- 27:50Speaker 2: take today and ever we're gonna have their moment on
- 27:51Speaker 2: their on their you know camera, whatever it is.
- 27:53Speaker 1: He's the one guy that doesn't. Uh. I remember saying
- 27:56Speaker 1: to myself when I heard.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Him talk about the I've watched him many times that
- 28:00Speaker 2: we watched the twenty one final stuff, Like, I've watched
- 28:03Speaker 2: it so many times, so I know all the Breen calls,
- 28:05Speaker 2: I feel like because we watched over and over and
- 28:07Speaker 2: it just felt the same, and I'm like, wow, he's
- 28:09Speaker 2: that good, he's that impressive, and he's calling it right
- 28:11Speaker 2: here in the garden for this team.
- 28:14Speaker 1: Unbelievable.
- 28:14Speaker 2: Shout out to the Kolek Marquette jersey behind the Knicks bench.
- 28:17Speaker 1: Probably his dad, I know, I was like, who is that? Yeah,
- 28:19Speaker 1: probably one of his parents. That was good to see.
- 28:22Speaker 1: But it was not the not the Okay pause.
- 28:25Speaker 2: I don't know, it was not the design that he
- 28:28Speaker 2: played in, but hey, that's fine. Right by Taylor Swift
- 28:31Speaker 2: in the bench there and her friends Drew. Did you
- 28:33Speaker 2: see the creative Taylor Swift shirt? I was very impressed
- 28:36Speaker 2: by her. Is she wore the Stevie Nicks T shirt?
- 28:39Speaker 1: I just saw the blue shirts she and I am
- 28:43Speaker 1: the girls were wearing. So I saw the clips, right,
- 28:45Speaker 1: you know, I'm stun I'm stunned here.
- 28:49Speaker 2: And I'm like, did you guys see what she's wearing
- 28:50Speaker 2: because it looks like a Knick shirt but obviously she's
- 28:54Speaker 2: a female artist vocalist. She wore a Stevie Nicks Okay
- 28:58Speaker 2: T shirt. I thought that was super creative. The other
- 29:01Speaker 2: one the other ones were almost better. Uh the no,
- 29:04Speaker 2: I definitely should have known the him girls. Yeah, that
- 29:06Speaker 2: pronounce that correctly.
- 29:07Speaker 1: I am girls.
- 29:08Speaker 4: Uh, I gotta checked their stuff out Okay, one had
- 29:12Speaker 4: a nickelback right there in the same one and the
- 29:16Speaker 4: other one.
- 29:16Speaker 1: Was I think, uh Nicole Kittman.
- 29:19Speaker 4: So they found different ways to be able to spice
- 29:21Speaker 4: it up real MVP last night though, Milwaukee's own Ernie
- 29:25Speaker 4: Johnson's Yeah, that was awesome when that when do you
- 29:29Speaker 4: know they have completely ESPN to that halftime show drew
- 29:33Speaker 4: when they come back for thirteen seconds, but they got
- 29:36Speaker 4: to show Ernie Johnson getting the picture with Taylor Swift
- 29:39Speaker 4: and becoming, as he said, the number one grandpa in
- 29:42Speaker 4: the entire world.
- 29:43Speaker 1: He's the entire world.
- 29:44Speaker 2: He's just got that vibe to him where it's like, oh,
- 29:46Speaker 2: he's gonna be the best guy to have there because
- 29:48Speaker 2: it's like, oh, we get to sit next to Ernie, like,
- 29:50Speaker 2: you know, non threatening grandpa vibe obviously a well known
- 29:53Speaker 2: celebrity in the NBA world, but like super the friendliest,
- 29:56Speaker 2: you know, down to earth guy forever.
- 29:57Speaker 1: He get up there and they come back and Charles goes,
- 30:00Speaker 1: this shit accomplished, we got it, we got it. Oh
- 30:04Speaker 1: my goodness.
- 30:05Speaker 3: So we're several weeks away in fact, Arman's been reliving it,
- 30:10Speaker 3: but the ly twentieth will be the anniversary of the
- 30:14Speaker 3: Bucks title victory five years.
- 30:16Speaker 1: Forget how late. That's the thing that messes me up,
- 30:19Speaker 1: that COVID. It's so late, but so late in the summer.
- 30:22Speaker 1: Does that not seem like fifteen twenty years ago right now?
- 30:26Speaker 1: It does to me.
- 30:27Speaker 3: It'll feel even longer if I if I much has
- 30:30Speaker 3: happened since then. It's true, that's life in general, but
- 30:35Speaker 3: that five year window seems like a million years ago.
- 30:38Speaker 4: Which is funny, Drew, because it also felt like everything
- 30:41Speaker 4: took that time, almost stood still for like a year
- 30:45Speaker 4: and a half before it, right like, because you're still
- 30:46Speaker 4: coming out of COVID and you think of that being
- 30:49Speaker 4: six years ago, that feels like to me a generation ago,
- 30:53Speaker 4: right Like, for how long it goes.
- 30:55Speaker 1: At that time, we didn't leave the house for like
- 30:57Speaker 1: a year, yeah, And like you can. You you're an
- 31:00Speaker 1: adaptive species, so we move on pretty quickly.
- 31:02Speaker 4: And then all of a sudden you're like, wait a second, Oh,
- 31:03Speaker 4: that actually did happen where you had to putt on
- 31:06Speaker 4: a golf course and you hit a pool noodle instead
- 31:08Speaker 4: of getting it out. Now, frankly, I liked that better
- 31:10Speaker 4: I was little, Actually, yeah, I was a lot better
- 31:12Speaker 4: at COVID golf than I am at real golf. But
- 31:14Speaker 4: there's like things that do lines of demarcation, and July
- 31:19Speaker 4: twenty at the anniversary, it's gonna feel even longer ago
- 31:22Speaker 4: went on June twentieth, potentially we get that, we get
- 31:25Speaker 4: that news and that alert coming in from a Sham
- 31:27Speaker 4: Sharania potential trade because there's been a lot of bucks
- 31:30Speaker 4: life that's happened after been a lot of.
- 31:32Speaker 3: Smoke there and a lot of talk, especially about the heat,
- 31:35Speaker 3: that they have the best offer but it's not great.
- 31:38Speaker 3: And then oh, Jim Ozarski, who's, you know, the voice
- 31:41Speaker 3: of reason. Yes, for a lot of people, he's plugged in.
- 31:43Speaker 3: He put out something last night just saying, well, I'm
- 31:46Speaker 3: you know, I'm not counting John Horset out for pulling
- 31:49Speaker 3: a third rabbit out of his hat. And he's been
- 31:51Speaker 3: consistent on that sort of He said that, Yeah, there
- 31:53Speaker 3: was no smoke when they pulled off the Liller trade.
- 31:56Speaker 3: There was no smoke, no inkling that they were going
- 31:59Speaker 3: to stretch and wave him, and there was no inkling
- 32:02Speaker 3: that they're gonna sign Miles Turner.
- 32:03Speaker 4: M hm.
- 32:05Speaker 3: John, he's the dark knight. He works in the shadows.
- 32:07Speaker 3: He works in mysterious ways. Now, maybe something of this magnitude,
- 32:12Speaker 3: I mean, the Bucks have are buttoned up, but maybe
- 32:14Speaker 3: something of this magnitude will leak from the other side.
- 32:17Speaker 3: If there's a trade that's getting close, but doesn't he
- 32:21Speaker 3: don't you think in the silence that there's there's still
- 32:24Speaker 3: a chance, Like I I've been and I'm I'm on
- 32:27Speaker 3: the record. I think you're honest, is gonna be trade.
- 32:28Speaker 3: I think he wants out. I think he's gonna be
- 32:30Speaker 3: accommodated and the Bucks will move forward because it is
- 32:33Speaker 3: likely the best thing for the organization. But I still
- 32:36Speaker 3: am not a thousand you know, even I'm not even
- 32:39Speaker 3: ninety percent sure that it's gonna happen, because, yeah, like
- 32:42Speaker 3: I said, John Horse could find.
- 32:44Speaker 1: Something that's fun.
- 32:45Speaker 4: Now I think it's I think it's as close to
- 32:47Speaker 4: done as not like an individual trade, but like the
- 32:51Speaker 4: relationship is as close as done as it can be.
- 32:53Speaker 4: But I think the real silence to me, Drew, is
- 32:57Speaker 4: this Miami stuff if it has Riley and his influence
- 33:01Speaker 4: all over it for the amount that that seems to
- 33:04Speaker 4: be the only spot. Tim Bond Tempson in Company Wendy
- 33:08Speaker 4: on their podcast, They're like well, I don't know if
- 33:11Speaker 4: teams are gonna want to outbit Miami.
- 33:14Speaker 1: Why yeah, why.
- 33:15Speaker 4: Because you don't want to anger pat Riley. You know,
- 33:17Speaker 4: you don't want him to glare at you in his
- 33:20Speaker 4: eighty three year old body, Like I just don't understand
- 33:23Speaker 4: the reverence of well, the heat want him so we
- 33:25Speaker 4: can't get there. I think there's much better packages available,
- 33:30Speaker 4: and you, honest is maybe going through the mathematics right
- 33:33Speaker 4: now of them saying, hey, Bud, I remember how Drew
- 33:37Speaker 4: has mentioned that real silence of the Damian Lillar trade. Well,
- 33:41Speaker 4: we got two packages here that we like a lot more,
- 33:43Speaker 4: and I got bad news for you.
- 33:45Speaker 1: You're not going to South Beach. You're going to go
- 33:47Speaker 1: to Portland.
- 33:49Speaker 2: You are going to go to not a bad spot,
- 33:52Speaker 2: maybe the one that I would the one that I
- 33:53Speaker 2: definitely want him to go to.
- 33:54Speaker 1: If the package is in beat Paulo Banko and Jalen Suggs.
- 33:57Speaker 1: I don't care about any picks.
- 33:59Speaker 4: Yeah, send him to Orlando, like this is I mean,
- 34:03Speaker 4: if they're gonna give you the right package, he can
- 34:04Speaker 4: go to Utah for all I can. Like, there's there's
- 34:07Speaker 4: moments where you're sitting there thinking of what they're gonna
- 34:09Speaker 4: get where they're gonna go. And I think there's a
- 34:12Speaker 4: lot more suitors for Giannis than than just the Miami Heat.
- 34:16Speaker 3: But Arma's gonna hate me on this one. I just
- 34:19Speaker 3: can't see it be in the Bucks again. I just
- 34:21Speaker 3: can't see it be in the Bucks again. But I'm
- 34:22Speaker 3: not giving up how much, but there isn't how far going.
- 34:26Speaker 1: It feels.
- 34:26Speaker 3: I'm all the way just because of you know, I
- 34:30Speaker 3: like that keep it a jar baby horse works some
- 34:32Speaker 3: mysterious ways, man, And.
- 34:33Speaker 2: I feel like Gianness is, Yeah, maybe you make the
- 34:36Speaker 2: point that he wants out, but I think his He's
- 34:38Speaker 2: gonna give the two options to the Bucks, and one
- 34:40Speaker 2: of them is you have to start trading picks and
- 34:43Speaker 2: we have to really go all in again type of thing.
- 34:46Speaker 2: If you showed them, well start not the right term rights,
- 34:48Speaker 2: they've already been doing it.
- 34:49Speaker 1: But like I think.
- 34:50Speaker 2: Gianness would acquiesce to that more if that was the case.
- 34:53Speaker 2: But there is that option.
- 34:54Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's the right option.
- 34:56Speaker 2: That can be debated, but so I'm still leaving the
- 35:00Speaker 2: possibility open, even though I know it's I'm in the minority, no, no.
- 35:02Speaker 5: But I like it.
- 35:03Speaker 4: I like both you guys are just leaving it, leaving
- 35:05Speaker 4: at a jar, leaving it up at the ship like
- 35:07Speaker 4: Blake Shelton at Austin song. Just let it know and no, Austin,
- 35:12Speaker 4: if this is you, I still love you, Giannis. If
- 35:15Speaker 4: you still want to come back, we still love you
- 35:17Speaker 4: and we're ready for you. We got Jahn Morant online one.
- 35:20Speaker 4: Let's go, come on.
- 35:22Speaker 3: Let's now that those screams Milwaukee like Ja Moran coming in.
- 35:24Speaker 3: Let's ride, keep them coming. Eight seven seven seven nine
- 35:28Speaker 3: seven three. We're glad you're hanging out with us in
- 35:30Speaker 3: the five o'clock club. It's Fox Sports Radio was gone
- 35:36Speaker 3: Drew billion armon bringing it to you on this Thursday
- 35:40Speaker 3: in the good Land eight seven seven seven nine four
- 35:42Speaker 3: ninety seven three for you five o'clock clubbers to weigh
- 35:46Speaker 3: in with us. Still trying to process what happened at
- 35:48Speaker 3: Madison Square Garden last evening. Interestingly, you know the prediction
- 35:53Speaker 3: markets and all that m indicators, Well, during the third quarter,
- 36:00Speaker 3: when the Knicks were getting slaughtered get in the door,
- 36:03Speaker 3: prices for Game six at the Garden dipped by to
- 36:07Speaker 3: seven seven, six hundred dollars.
- 36:09Speaker 1: Whoa wow? Okay, and then within the hour after the
- 36:14Speaker 1: next one.
- 36:14Speaker 3: They went to fourteen thousand dollars to get in the
- 36:16Speaker 3: door for a possible Game six.
- 36:18Speaker 1: My goodness, the money to be made, the possibility for it.
- 36:22Speaker 3: That is like if you're timing the market there and
- 36:25Speaker 3: you bought the dip like which they always tell you
- 36:27Speaker 3: to do, and when it comes to the market, buy
- 36:29Speaker 3: the dip, get in the door.
- 36:31Speaker 1: Prices went from they doubled in an hour, yeah, and
- 36:34Speaker 1: drew the thing.
- 36:35Speaker 4: I've seen a lot of people trying to clap back
- 36:37Speaker 4: at this, like, well, show the sales instead of just
- 36:39Speaker 4: the postings are right, you know, it's okay one thing
- 36:42Speaker 4: to list it, what are they actually getting?
- 36:44Speaker 1: I mean people were actually buying them for twelve grand
- 36:46Speaker 1: for game three.
- 36:47Speaker 4: I can only imagine what it's gonna be there as
- 36:50Speaker 4: somebody at the Potawatami sportsbook that invested on Nixon six.
- 36:54Speaker 4: That was That was my thought, like, if you have
- 36:57Speaker 4: the opportunity too, and you have them to put down,
- 37:01Speaker 4: the one to buy is game six to then ultimately,
- 37:04Speaker 4: if indeed you're in a business mindset, then you flip
- 37:08Speaker 4: that son of a gun and you make a fortune
- 37:10Speaker 4: off of it. If I remember correctly, I think you
- 37:13Speaker 4: were the genius that pointed it out to a couple
- 37:17Speaker 4: of us around game three or game four for the
- 37:20Speaker 4: Bucks of hey, I know, this is really fun to
- 37:22Speaker 4: go to game three in game four, but especially after
- 37:24Speaker 4: they won Game three, the one to look at is
- 37:26Speaker 4: game six. Fellas they win game four, you're guaranteed it's
- 37:30Speaker 4: either your last chance to watch them or a chance
- 37:32Speaker 4: to win a title. And if I'm not mistaken, you
- 37:36Speaker 4: hit the market perfectly on the Did you get it
- 37:38Speaker 4: right before game four?
- 37:39Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 37:40Speaker 4: Okay, so you you struck gold because when I was
- 37:44Speaker 4: I was in Vegas for Game five and going into
- 37:47Speaker 4: Game five, tickets in like the last row of that
- 37:49Speaker 4: lower level at five serve around eight hundred bucks, seven
- 37:53Speaker 4: or eight hundred bucks. Went to bed that night after
- 37:57Speaker 4: the talk about thrilling comeback in the first half that
- 37:59Speaker 4: the Bucks had in Game five against the Sun's way
- 38:01Speaker 4: back when they jumped to eleven hundred. Yeah, and that
- 38:06Speaker 4: feels like peanuts then pennies compared to what we're talking
- 38:10Speaker 4: about with these tickets. It's crazy, Yeah, it is.
- 38:12Speaker 1: I mean, and these these series are always ten you.
- 38:15Speaker 2: You know, it's funny how you can talk yourself into
- 38:16Speaker 2: any tenuous moment, Like obviously after last night, it sure
- 38:19Speaker 2: looks like the Knicks are on their way now. But
- 38:22Speaker 2: if somehow the Spurs can win Game five at home,
- 38:24Speaker 2: then is the pressure around the Knicks to win at
- 38:26Speaker 2: home in Game six in front of that crowd that's
- 38:28Speaker 2: expecting the coronation, and and and and there, and you're right,
- 38:32Speaker 2: it's gonna be the biggest selling game ever. In all
- 38:34Speaker 2: those things, it is interesting how just one little, one
- 38:38Speaker 2: little turn of events can change the way you look
- 38:40Speaker 2: at the whole thing. But it's gotta be like, you know,
- 38:43Speaker 2: it's gotta be like waking up like a kid on
- 38:45Speaker 2: Christmas when you're a Knicks fan today pinching yourself saying
- 38:48Speaker 2: that that just really happen.
- 38:49Speaker 1: But uh yeah, I'm sure that's that's what the.
- 38:51Speaker 2: Kids are thinking about though now these days, right, is
- 38:53Speaker 2: the money they can make off commodities, being a commodities
- 38:56Speaker 2: trader and not just being a sports fan.
- 38:58Speaker 3: That's how that's how this world is changed US. I
- 39:00Speaker 3: guess eight seven three, it's just uh man, that was
- 39:07Speaker 3: a that's a fun thing.
- 39:08Speaker 4: Now.
- 39:08Speaker 3: One of the best videos I saw in the aftermath
- 39:11Speaker 3: was the US men's national soccer team reaction.
- 39:13Speaker 1: Oh I missed that one. Oh yeah, they were going
- 39:16Speaker 1: crazy watching the next one.
- 39:18Speaker 4: Man Instead, I saw weby getting an egg thrown at
- 39:20Speaker 4: him as he was walking into uh walking into the
- 39:23Speaker 4: team hotel.
- 39:24Speaker 2: Uh.
- 39:25Speaker 4: A lot, a lot better than the scenes that we
- 39:27Speaker 4: had to see after Game three. But there was a
- 39:29Speaker 4: moment there where I'm if I'm in New York and
- 39:32Speaker 4: I do have a number one jersey on a San
- 39:34Speaker 4: Antonio jersey. At halftime, I was walking right into the
- 39:37Speaker 4: bathroom and taking that son of a gun, right, you
- 39:38Speaker 4: got to turn it out.
- 39:39Speaker 2: I am I taking that thing. I was taking that
- 39:41Speaker 2: thing off right away. I'm not trying to start any problems.
- 39:43Speaker 2: I don't want anybody seeing me cheering for this team.
- 39:45Speaker 4: I'll just give my quiet fist pumps under and then uh,
- 39:48Speaker 4: you know, an hour and a half later, I took
- 39:50Speaker 4: it off for a different reason.
- 39:51Speaker 1: Yeah, my goodness, gracious, want to turn about that is?
- 39:55Speaker 4: And and for the ticket deal, I wonder what it
- 39:58Speaker 4: is now for Game five, because now you have for
- 40:01Speaker 4: if you're a San Antonio fan, there's gotta be a
- 40:05Speaker 4: get these things.
- 40:06Speaker 3: Out of here, great boy, like, get these out of
- 40:08Speaker 3: my hands. I don't even want to think about what
- 40:10Speaker 3: that's gonna be. And if you're a Knicks fan, this
- 40:12Speaker 3: is maybe the greatest vacation you could possibly have. You're
- 40:15Speaker 3: gonna have a chance for a Saturday Night sweep or
- 40:18Speaker 3: Saturday Night Theories win and a championship on the Riverwalk
- 40:22Speaker 3: in San Antonio.
- 40:23Speaker 2: Yeah, they want to overrun that city. New Yorkers want
- 40:26Speaker 2: to make that Brooklyn South or or you know, Midtown South.
- 40:30Speaker 2: That's already a fun spot to be, Yeah, with the
- 40:33Speaker 2: with the whole canal and everything, and the Riverwalk you mentioned.
- 40:36Speaker 1: A great place to hang out down there in San Antonio.
- 40:38Speaker 4: And if you're gonna be celebrating on an enemy territory,
- 40:41Speaker 4: there's not a whole lot better.
- 40:42Speaker 1: Places to be. Yeah, you're right.
- 40:44Speaker 2: It's gonna be tempting for Spurs fans because the market's
- 40:46Speaker 2: gonna be quite robust. You've already grown up saying I've
- 40:49Speaker 2: already seen five of these titles.
- 40:50Speaker 5: It is what it is.
- 40:51Speaker 1: We're not gonna win.
- 40:52Speaker 2: Let me just slide these tickets outo the marketplace and
- 40:54Speaker 2: see what happens. Once again, we're all come out of
- 40:56Speaker 2: these traders.
- 40:56Speaker 1: Let's see if I can pay for one of my
- 40:58Speaker 1: kids semesters of school. But you know what, the real
- 41:00Speaker 1: ones won't do it.
- 41:01Speaker 2: If there's still real fans out there, the real ones
- 41:03Speaker 2: will go down with their team, go down with the ship.
- 41:04Speaker 2: They'll be good job, good effort all the way to
- 41:06Speaker 2: the end. Not sure if it is any left, but
- 41:08Speaker 2: that's that's.
- 41:08Speaker 1: What I think.
- 41:10Speaker 4: So so if you could, if you had, say, paid
- 41:14Speaker 4: what would be a generous way a thousand bucks face value,
- 41:17Speaker 4: that's probably way more than what you would right, I
- 41:19Speaker 4: would say, yeah, and you could flip them things for
- 41:23Speaker 4: ten or eleven grand well, billy, if you put mister
- 41:26Speaker 4: Dave Ramsey armon sorry and over.
- 41:28Speaker 2: On that side of the glass, those type of numbers.
- 41:29Speaker 2: But you know, I'd never be able to live it down.
- 41:32Speaker 2: That's a legacy decision.
- 41:33Speaker 4: Oh I think I think five numbers there on the
- 41:36Speaker 4: bank account, on the Venmo transfer might allow you to
- 41:38Speaker 4: be able to get over it.
- 41:40Speaker 1: Maybe.
- 41:40Speaker 2: But listen, then I'd be up, you know, one of
- 41:43Speaker 2: those for the rest of my life, because then I
- 41:45Speaker 2: just gave up my tickets for the NBA Finals.
- 41:47Speaker 1: I mean you, what are you saying, sports fans, you
- 41:50Speaker 1: sold them, You made a boatload on that. That is
- 41:55Speaker 1: not giving up that's winning. It is a temptation there,
- 41:57Speaker 1: that's for sure.
- 41:59Speaker 3: So Darren Revelge supposed to what he said was the
- 42:01Speaker 3: best video from last night. Of course it's his opinion, right,
- 42:04Speaker 3: Ammon Shumpert walking through the crowd in his own jersey.
- 42:06Speaker 1: I saw that, ye yourself. That's awesome. We're in his
- 42:11Speaker 1: own jersey walking through the crowd, towering over the people.
- 42:14Speaker 1: That's wild. Let's go shump the moment. All the old
- 42:17Speaker 1: nick O g Nicks wanted the half of themselves, right, dude,
- 42:20Speaker 1: that's hilarious.
- 42:20Speaker 4: I mean Shumpert was was flexing the calves title ring
- 42:25Speaker 4: on first take yesterday, but this one's even way better.
- 42:28Speaker 1: Shohn Starts was on the floor last night. Yeah, like
- 42:32Speaker 1: he was just on the floor. I don't see court
- 42:34Speaker 1: storming in the NBA, but that came close under the basket.
- 42:38Speaker 4: All of those alone, they're just like, yeah, we're just
- 42:41Speaker 4: gonna make this our own personal playground here.
- 42:42Speaker 3: A lot of big unk energy, big unk energy. Absolutely,
- 42:45Speaker 3: we got a lot of that going on as well.
- 42:47Speaker 3: We're glad that you five o'clock clubbers are with us.
- 42:49Speaker 3: But now we're moving on. We're gonna talk some brewers.
- 42:51Speaker 3: We'll talk some packers. It's not just the NBA Finals,
- 42:54Speaker 3: but it is fun to talk about a game like
- 42:56Speaker 3: last night, about it.
- 42:58Speaker 1: You are in the huddle. Fox Sports Radio was OUTSI
