- 0:29Speaker 1: I have just learned here on the show in the

- 0:34Speaker 1: Junior Little League World Series for even smaller.

- 0:52Speaker 1: they didn't make it all the way though. They were
- 0:54Speaker 1: playing the honor. They were playing for the honor of
- 0:56Speaker 1: our fallen Arby's. They were probably shook it. They couldn't
- 1:00Speaker 1: go to Armies and go there after the game the meets,
- 1:04Speaker 1: I Bone get us going, Man, what weekend conclusion you
- 1:06Speaker 1: want to start us with?
- 1:07Speaker 2: Mac?
- 1:07Speaker 3: We want to say goodbye and rest in peace to
- 1:10Speaker 3: one of the great characters in basketball. From his time
- 1:14Speaker 3: as a player where he won five titles with the
- 1:17Speaker 3: Boston Celtics to then being three times NBA Coach of
- 1:20Speaker 3: the Year. The great Don Nelson pass away over the weekend.
- 1:25Speaker 3: Coached Milwaukee, Golden State, the Knicks, briefly Dallas, and then
- 1:29Speaker 3: Golden State again. Mac an all time character that got
- 1:33Speaker 3: into some interesting hobbies when he was done playing. Here's
- 1:38Speaker 3: an interview a couple of years ago where Don Nelson
- 1:40Speaker 3: updated what he's been up to.
- 1:42Speaker 1: Each of you talked briefly about what you've been doing
- 1:44Speaker 1: after basketball, coach.
- 1:47Speaker 2: I know you live in Hawaii, right, So yeah, I've
- 1:49Speaker 2: been smoking some podcasts, Mack.
- 1:54Speaker 3: He became a marijuana farmer in his later years. He
- 1:58Speaker 3: had long hair for a while there, a hippie. It
- 2:01Speaker 3: was kind of interesting from the Don Nelson, the tough
- 2:04Speaker 3: NBA fighter type coach that he was to becoming like
- 2:08Speaker 3: a gregarious marijuana farmer.
- 2:10Speaker 1: Well. Hey, at least he had some fun there in
- 2:12Speaker 1: his post NBA career before he passed at the age
- 2:14Speaker 1: of eighty six. Bone, I gotta be honest, Bone, I
- 2:19Speaker 1: don't know if this makes me a professional or a loser.
- 2:22Speaker 1: But Saturday morning, I grinded the preseason tape.
- 2:25Speaker 2: Man, I had to.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Go back and watch again because there I wanted to
- 2:29Speaker 1: see that. No, Mac, I want to see the rookie specifically,
- 2:32Speaker 1: because I'm gonna be honest with you. I didn't even
- 2:34Speaker 1: notice Lee Hunter during the game live and I went
- 2:37Speaker 1: back and I went I realized, Oh crap, Lee Hunter
- 2:39Speaker 1: was out there.
- 2:40Speaker 2: Lee Hunter got shoved around a little bit.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Now he was getting doubled a lot, but Lee Hunter
- 2:44Speaker 1: definitely had some moments where he got shoved around. So
- 2:46Speaker 1: I don't feel like it was the best debut. Zakey
- 2:48Speaker 1: Wheatley might have had the best rookie debut of them all.
- 2:51Speaker 1: Highest PFF grade nine total tackles per PFF, eight per
- 2:55Speaker 1: the actual box score, and PFF had him with four stops,
- 2:58Speaker 1: which is a tackle resulting in and it played. That's
- 3:01Speaker 1: not a positive play for the offense. I actually thought
- 3:03Speaker 1: Sam Heck did pretty well, you know the unfortunately for him,
- 3:06Speaker 1: the only time we talked about him is when he
- 3:08Speaker 1: had that snap that didn't exactly clear his own booty
- 3:11Speaker 1: and Haines King had trouble getting it, and then we
- 3:13Speaker 1: had the run for loss. He actually got obliterated on
- 3:15Speaker 1: that run block right after that, probably because of the
- 3:19Speaker 1: bad snap. But other than that Bone, he had some
- 3:21Speaker 1: amazing pass pro reps. Man, I thought Sam Hunt or
- 3:25Speaker 1: Sam Hecht was damn good in what I saw on Yeah,
- 3:30Speaker 1: he did not play.
- 3:31Speaker 2: He was a dame. He was a DNP coach's decision. Bone.
- 3:36Speaker 1: So those are a few guys there that kind of
- 3:38Speaker 1: stuck out. I'm hoping for more from Lee Hunter this week,
- 3:42Speaker 1: but he wasn't alone on defense. I watched it backbone.
- 3:45Speaker 1: You still got a strain to see Princely like. It
- 3:49Speaker 1: was very anonymous from Princely and Trevin Wallace was involved
- 3:53Speaker 1: in three tackles, but man, it was a quiet perform
- 3:56Speaker 1: from him as well for a guy that we're expected
- 3:58Speaker 1: to be a starter.
- 3:59Speaker 3: Mac, when we watched Eagally in practice, you know what
- 4:01Speaker 3: stands out to me. It's the It's the length of
- 4:05Speaker 3: the arms, it's the ability to make plays with the
- 4:08Speaker 3: the wiry frame. He reminds me Mac of those Seattle
- 4:12Speaker 3: dbs during their best years, the big, tall, wanky defensive bats.
- 4:18Speaker 3: That's what I think Dan Morgan's seen it.
- 4:20Speaker 1: Answers like that dB length Man. They like it. I'll
- 4:23Speaker 1: say this too. Ransom, who you would think Wheatley is
- 4:26Speaker 1: battling with right for snaps along with Nick Scott. Ransom
- 4:30Speaker 1: was good too. It wasn't just that big shot on
- 4:32Speaker 1: the deep ball. He had a great tackle right like
- 4:36Speaker 1: one yard game, stuff them right at the line. So
- 4:39Speaker 1: all the safeties played well. Isaiah Simmons safety, Isaiah Simmons
- 4:42Speaker 1: made an amazing play.
- 4:43Speaker 2: It's safety over top.
- 4:44Speaker 3: I think the future of the safety spot is bright
- 4:46Speaker 3: there next to uh trayvon Merritt. I do he laid
- 4:50Speaker 3: that Ransom, that laid that thick boom To see stick
- 4:54Speaker 3: boom during that pays a saying or not, But I
- 4:57Speaker 3: kind of went with.
- 4:57Speaker 1: It all right.
- 4:58Speaker 2: I got you Mac.
- 4:59Speaker 3: You ever see Netflix movie or a show where it's
- 5:02Speaker 3: coming soon and you think, wow, I can't wait to see.
- 5:04Speaker 2: What that's about.
- 5:05Speaker 3: Well, they've been advertising this movie coming out called The
- 5:09Speaker 3: Last House. In the write up set on there, a
- 5:12Speaker 3: family gets trapped in a house they can't leave due
- 5:15Speaker 3: to mysterious outside forces. I thought, wow, interesting premise, I'll watch.
- 5:20Speaker 3: It started out okay, and it turned into as the
- 5:24Speaker 3: movie went along, perhaps the worst movie I've ever seen.
- 5:28Speaker 3: In my lifetime, I've never I've never seen a movie
- 5:31Speaker 3: turn quicker back into absolute chaos more than this. I
- 5:35Speaker 3: can't recommend enough that movie just to see how so
- 5:38Speaker 3: you can see how bad it.
- 5:42Speaker 1: I'm gonna stay away, Bone, I'm gonna stay away from
- 5:45Speaker 1: that one.
- 5:46Speaker 3: I appreciate the tim Monne got me on the premise,
- 5:48Speaker 3: Oh that sounds okay, yeah, yeah, nope, Oh my god,
- 5:53Speaker 3: what did I watch? Did you watch it all?
- 5:54Speaker 2: You did? You didn't? You didn't bail on it? Well?
- 5:57Speaker 2: I wanted to get angry.
- 5:59Speaker 1: I figured I need to know how crappy this this
- 6:01Speaker 1: for weekend conclusions.
- 6:03Speaker 2: That's what I did.
- 6:03Speaker 1: I said, I need to need to do this for
- 6:05Speaker 1: the team here, Bone, I have talked so much about
- 6:09Speaker 1: how face things surround things surrounding Kitlyn Clark often end
- 6:16Speaker 1: up getting so political and everything turns into a culture war,
- 6:20Speaker 1: and I hate it.
- 6:21Speaker 2: I can't stand it. Right.
- 6:22Speaker 1: I love Katelyn Clark. Watched the game on Saturday. She
- 6:25Speaker 1: goes off for twenty six and eleven. I like watching
- 6:27Speaker 1: the fever. Kelsey Mitchell is amazing too, Bone, I gotta
- 6:31Speaker 1: be honest with you, man, This league.
- 6:33Speaker 2: Though, brings it on themselves so damn much.
- 6:36Speaker 1: I mean, it's not just the way the media and
- 6:38Speaker 1: politicians and everybody reacts to Caitlyn Clark. First of all,
- 6:41Speaker 1: you know you had to hold Sophie Cunningham comments and
- 6:43Speaker 1: stuff like that. But how about what happened on Saturday?
- 6:47Speaker 1: Dejah Nay Carington goes flat out Bill lamb beer on
- 6:52Speaker 1: Sophie Cunningham on a fast break. I don't know if
- 6:55Speaker 1: you saw the hit straight up clothesline dirty is all hell?
- 6:59Speaker 2: And what does she do afterwards?
- 7:01Speaker 1: She goes into the locker room and tweets out or
- 7:05Speaker 1: on a thrown threads white privilege at Indiana fever Like, seriously,
- 7:11Speaker 1: that's not the medium making up this culture war controversy.
- 7:14Speaker 2: That's not politicians do it.
- 7:16Speaker 1: So now, granted, don't go in and have their say
- 7:18Speaker 1: now and make it a real big thing, but seriously, man,
- 7:22Speaker 1: this league can't. What did Bill Simmons say about this weekend?
- 7:25Speaker 1: Bill Simmons says, this league is basically a walking talking
- 7:30Speaker 1: for you on Twitter like everything and I don't know
- 7:32Speaker 1: if you can go to four you bone everything off,
- 7:34Speaker 1: so much toxic stuff on for you.
- 7:36Speaker 2: It's really not for you.
- 7:37Speaker 1: Everything everything with this league now You've got enniscanter saying
- 7:41Speaker 1: I want to end to the WNBA draft to try
- 7:44Speaker 1: to make a point about transgender athletes, like it's a mess, man,
- 7:48Speaker 1: a damn us so much going on it's hard to
- 7:50Speaker 1: keep tracking they do it basketball. Meanwhile, they got some
- 7:53Speaker 1: great teams and some great players.
- 7:55Speaker 3: Every other day there's a new controversy that you can't
- 7:58Speaker 3: keep up with that from the last one.
- 8:00Speaker 2: By the one was absurd though.
- 8:01Speaker 1: By the way, the technical foul that ref tried to
- 8:03Speaker 1: call on Kaitlin Clark and it took them two minutes
- 8:05Speaker 1: after the game of a sin was absurd too, by
- 8:07Speaker 1: the way, absurd.
- 8:08Speaker 2: I'm out a conclusions bout anything else there?
- 8:11Speaker 3: Oh that's it for you. Well, I was going to
- 8:13Speaker 3: do the Little League one, but Fitty use it for
- 8:14Speaker 3: his update. And I was going to do RB's shutting

- 8:34Speaker 1: And how about cool News Bone. There's a Manning Brady
- 8:37Speaker 1: documentary in the works now. I kind of agree with you.
- 8:41Speaker 1: I think we both have like noticed so many sports

- 8:48Speaker 1: used to when there was so much fewer over them.
- 8:50Speaker 1: Manning and Brady documentary about their rivalry.
