  Speaker 1: That is where we hang out side by side.
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: And I got a message from our friend Ruth in
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: La and she said, hey, can you tell me about tires?
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Said, you know what, I'll do that? Why not?

• 2:30
  Speaker 2: tire iraq dot com.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: The way tire buying should be.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: So then I got this weird email from I think
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: it was Derek the Bill's Monster, it might have been
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: from Helmetman and they mentioned wee Bowl and I said,

• 3:13
  Speaker 1: So our lead this hour.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: We continue our in depth team coverage all night from
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: pro Bouncy Ball. We go to Motown. We head out
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: to Motown. Why not taps, bleep.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: And lootly we go there.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: It was two for one special the early game. The
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: undercard had a game in Detroit. There if you didn't watch,
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: perhaps not. Kate Cuttingham had the most points, so he
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: gets the lead on the hero of the game as Caid.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Cuttingham scored twenty three points on some terrible shooting. Former
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Clipper Tobias Harris added twenty and the Pistons swarmed the
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Cavaliers late to upset Strip Club John one eleven to
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: one oh one. On Tuesday night, in Game number one,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: uh the second run, Duncan Robinson got into a little
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: hissy with James Harden. He had nineteen points for the
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Pistons as well, who ended a NBA record tying twelve
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: game postseason skid, aoo better known as a losing streak
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: against a single opponent, a drought that had dated way
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: back to seven. I was a child in O seven
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: in the Eastern Conference Finals. So Game two is Thursday night,
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Thursday night there in Detroit basketball. So the better story
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: is always in the losing locker room and Cleveland getting scrutinized, dramatized, chastised, analyzed, stigmatized, sensationalized,
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: and of course criticized. Let's say cred homage to Don King,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: an old school boxing promoter. You don't even know who
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: that is. You have to be really old to know
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: who Don King is, because Don King's like really really
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: really really really old.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: That was one of his great lines, and it was
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: even longer than that. So it's a good jumping off point.
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: Let us discuss the question who gets the biggest helping
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: of blame buck guys for James Harden's Cavaliers.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: That is the question.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: So I've got Serena Williams, soft Launch and radio shack,
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: and we are gonna combine all of these things together,
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: and we are going to bet on the wrong horse,
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: is what we're going to do.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: We're gonna bet on the wrong horse. So number what
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: number one?
• 5:41
  Speaker 4: Number one?
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: Number one, number one and fun number one. So Donovan Mitchell,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Evan Mobley and James Harden, the three amigos, they get
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: big heaping portions of the blame buck guys for the Cavaliers.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: Here, the Cavs didn't just lose the game.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: It was like the holiday season and when you buy something,
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: would you like that gift wrapped?
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Okay? Sure, can I get that gift wrap? Okay?
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Well, because it's a holidays, We're not gonna even charge
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: you anymore. We're just gonna gif wrap this thing like
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: it is the holidays, and it's a holiday that you
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: don't even celebrate. Congratulations, and you don't need to be
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Serena Williams to recognize the story here. Unforced errors, unforced
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: errors Okay, as they say in the Tennis World, twenty turnovers,
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: that's not offense. That is the salvation army. Okay, thirty
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: one free points to Detroit thirty one points off twenty giveaways.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Cleveland had sixteen. So my computer like brain using malarmath
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: tells me that that is a plus fifteen for the
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: home team, the Pistons. The game finished a ten point spread,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: so you can your math and figure it out yourself.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: It's a rather easy waltz. And that's game set and matchdown.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Even with that, the game was tied up at ninety
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: three with five twenty eight to go in the game,
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: so you did not need to watch.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: The first forty two minutes of the game.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: The last five to twenty eight of the game, Cleveland
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: played like a team seeing a basketball for the first
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: time ever, Like.
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: What is this round object? I don't where did that
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: come from?
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: Is that from somewhere outside the Milky Way galaxy?
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I doub't know.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: So Detroit they did. It wasn't their their name brand
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: players that played well in the final five to twenty eight.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: It was some off brand players. The Sharks at feeding time,
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: they shot sixty three percent over the last five to
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: twenty eight of the game. The Cavs at thirty percent.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: And they also had a prayer that was not answered.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: And yes, you know how I do it here Supermarket
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Steve Playoff Harden. The Playoff Harden experience showed up clunky,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: sloppy seven turnovers, the turnover to assist ratio a one
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: for one proposition.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: The bottom line here, though, Cleveland did.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Not get beat They hit the self destruct button and
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: that's what happened. They just tuckered out in the final
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: five to twenty eight of the game, although they were
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: behind most of the game.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: Most of the game.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Now, James Harden has been the one common denominator. He's
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: changed teams and bounced around the NBA, and he has
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: consistently ridden the vomit comet in playoff games. He'll get
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: one or two really good performances and then the rest
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: of the time there'll be a couple where he's just
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: kind of there, he's just taking up space, and then
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: there'll be several where he rex havoc and literally is
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: like the sixth man, right, He's like the sixth man
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: of the other team.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Anyway, here's James Harden who was asked about.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: I guess you'll hear the question on this and the
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: answer hardened about all the mistakes, a lot of mistakes
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: for James Harden in these playoff games and the Cabs
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: in general.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Here's hard take your list.
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: Do you think these turnovers are something that are correctable?
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: Yep?
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: What do you like?
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: What do you think some of them are?
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: You know, like non just said, you know, you look
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: at you look within first, and you look at my
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: turnovers and a lot of them are just on me
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: and nothing they did so and you know which led
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: to to you know, I don't even know how many
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: transition points they have, and it was way too many.
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: And I mean, if I had to put my my
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: print on one thing on the game, that's the game
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: right there. I mean, how many points a transitions that's
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: the game like it's nothing else, Like we talked about
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: last years, you get a shot on glass even half
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: of that, and it's a different ball game. So you know,
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: for me, I gotta be better and I will be
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: better turning the basketball over, you know, from turning the
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: bassball over again, shots up and then it gives our
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: defense a chance to get back, and said, you know,
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: I think we did it. Other than that, we played
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: a pretty solid game.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: That SoundBite could have been from twenty sixteen. It could
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: have been from you know.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: To go back.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: As long as you want to go back twenty twelve,
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: you can keep going back. He didn't mention the Cavs.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: I don't believe he didn't mention the Pistons. That was
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: an evergreen SoundBite for the most part, and that's who
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: James Harden is. I heard it when he played for
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: the people's team, the Clippers, and he'd play a bad game.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: And he'd comment about how we know what we need.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: To do and Okay, good, go out and do it. Nope,
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: not gonna do it, Not gonna happen. It is literally
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: baked into James Harden to suck in playoff games, Like,
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: I don't know how you get that out of James
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: harden Is. It's when he sweats, the suck comes out
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: in the playoff.
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: It's wild.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Now, moving on pitch two, So cavstar Donovan Mitchell went
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: on a bit of a rant postgame. He was asked
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: by reporters about the foul shot disparity, the free throw disparity,
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: not only in this series a game one, of course,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: this series, but the entire postseason, and Mitchell went on
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: a bit of a rant. He said, I want to
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: separate this from the game, he said, and then he
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: dove into the game, which was thirty five sixteen advantage
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: for Detroit in the disparity from the foul line, and
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: he said, here's the key part, he says, not why
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: we lost tonight, Spider Mitchell says, I want to make
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: sure I say that.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: But but he says, I don't know. I'm trying to
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: get downhill.
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: A friend of mine got fine for talking about flopping.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: I guess he's talking about Jayalen Brown.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: So a quote continues, I'm not gonna try to double down,
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: but I mean, I feel like that's what I gotta do.
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: At this point, he said, you know what I mean, right, Okay,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: I keep going. He says, like, I'm.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Trying to get downhill, trying to get to the bucket.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Sometimes there's people on the way and I'm trying to
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: fight through contact and I'm not getting these calls Clodes quote.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: Question, So what did the Cavaliers Star Spider Mitchell accomplished
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: by calling out the referees and the seemingly the pistons flopping.
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: He didn't say pistons, but certainly implied there was some
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: flopping that went on. So Donovan Mitchell did not just
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: call out indirectly the pistons and obviously the referees. He
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: basically filed a lobbying brief with NBA headquarters in Manhattan,
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: and he did it on live TV. He hit the
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: classic Superstar two step, I am not blaming the referees.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: But but but but but but but but but but.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so hey, it was musical.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: I'm like Ohio Awler, Dick and Dayton or Jay Scoop
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: and just Josh. He said, but let me tell you
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: why we lost everything before the word but is a lie.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: Every man woman knows that.
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: Sometimes children know that too, but mostly men and women
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: know that. Now Spider says he's not pointing fingers, and
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: then spent about two minutes pointing every finger and some
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: thumbs that he had. It's the NBA's version of no offense.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: But yeah, okay, so this wasn't a comment. It was
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: a soft launch. Political campaign happens all the time all
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: the time. It is expected that coaches and players will lobby,
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: and obviously Spider Mitchell wants to separate it from the game,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: the same way I want to separate dessert from dinner.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: I still eat both. I still have both when I eat.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: And he used the refs as the fall guy and
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: sent up smoke signals begging for make good whistles is
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: what he Mitchell said that he's trying to get downhill,
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: but he went downhill straight into the complaint. Department in
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: the basement there. He went down to the complaint department,
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: and he didn't plant a seed. He planted an orchard
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: of referee guilt. Zebra guilt is what he did. All
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: of it aimed one message, Hey, Adam Silver, half man, half.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Alien, we'd like some freebies in game five. Yeah, I
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: did mean.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: There's a lot of chatter there's gonna be some kind
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: of big UFO revelation coming out here in the coming
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: weeks and stuff.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't it be great if.
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: They announced that there have been extraterrestrials living with us
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: and one of them runs the NBA.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be awesome?
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: And Sam Cassell when he played years ago, also also
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: from somewhere else out in the cosmos, and that these.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: Their hybrid human alien type people. Wouldn't that be awesome?
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: All right?
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Final point, This is a crossover story college basketball and
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: the NBA. So things are getting dusty. They're getting dusty
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: around here. Yeah, I'm talking about Dusty May the coach.
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: He's a Michigan Man, the Champions of Collegiate Basketball. Well,
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: Dusty Mate doesn't sound like he's gonna be a Michigan
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: Man much longer. Apparently, he's got a knock on the door.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: You can hear it right there. Look at that. Do
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: I have not the greatest sound effects on all of
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: talk radio?
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: Look at that you're knocking, and the knock is the
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: NBA and they're saying, hey, Dusty, how would you like
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: to coach in the NBA? Now he just led Michigan
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: to a national championship. The speculation machine and the Naked
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: City's never wrong. The speculation machine says, the Orlando Magic
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: and the Golden State Warriors are said to be interested
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: in Dusty May in the month of May. Now, I
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: don't think Steve Kurrz officially been terminated or left the
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Warriors yet, although Dusty May has no NBA coaching.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: Experience, and may d'd agree.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: You might remember he agreed to a contract extension, but
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: you know what that means. He hasn't signed it yet,
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: So until it's signed, it doesn't matter. And even if
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: he signs it, this language offset language and things like
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: that to get out of it. So the question you are,
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: now Michigan hoops coach Dusty May's career counselor should he
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: go to the Warriors or the Magic or stay at Michigan.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: So if he's jumping, it's not even a choice. It's
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: Orlando or stay at Michigan or just retired. Dusty May
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: was able to catch lightning in an NIL sponsored bottle
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: at Michigan. He bought the right players. That's how you
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: play big time college football and basketball. Indiana, the right players,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: they won the championship. Michigan bought the right players. They
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: won the championship. You don't, though, sit around. You don't
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: sit around waiting for the bottle. You've caught lightning in
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: a bottle. You don't sit around waiting for the bottle
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: of crack. The sequel is almost never the equal.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: And you got Orlando and Golden State the Warriors.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: Please, that would be like buying stock in radio shack
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: because you believe in nostalgia. Well, congratulations, it ain't gonna
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: help you. Golden State is a dynasty on hospice at
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: this point. It is a museum exhibit with a gift shop,
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: and they've got some nice collectibles from the Splash brother
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: days and all that stuff.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: And the only.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Thing that Dusty May would inherit is the blame when
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: things continue to go on a death spiral.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: For the Warriors, and they're they're gonna.
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: Be so bad, so so bad. They're gonna they're gonna
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: bring back Baron Davis. That's how bad they're going to be.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: My God, is a real job.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: All right now.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: If the Warriors want a miracle worker, I recommend calling
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: a priest, a rabbi, or a magician. Orlando's the job,
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: because that's it, full stop, Orlando. Not that that's a
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: great job. However, it's a younger team. It's a hungry team. Granted,
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: it's a bit of a confused team, which means Dusty
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: may could improve just by showing up in theory. With
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: Paolo Bonchero Franz Wagner and Desmond Baine as the big three,
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: although one of them may be traded, likely franz Wagner.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: There is raw talent.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: There is raw talent, and they just need something to
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: crank it up a couple of notches. The Magic are
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: like a mid level contender with upside. They're currently stuck
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: on a ditch on the side of the road. There's
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: ability for them to level up the Warriors. That is
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: a farewell tour. That is, hey, let's have flashback promotions
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: with Bob Heads for all these guys that no longer
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: play for the Warriors, so we'll bring them back. Why
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: not Orlando. There's a little runway there, so Dusty May's choice.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: It's not really a debate. It's a map and there's
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: one road highlighted. It's a one way road and it's
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: got a spotlight on it.
• 19:19

• 32:34
  Speaker 8: So maybe Joe Missoula will go on a date with
• 32:36
  Speaker 8: you because you're woke. So when you come to Boston,
• 32:39
  Speaker 8: you'll be beloved by the Boston crowd because you give
• 32:42
  Speaker 8: a lot of love to the people that need love
• 32:44
  Speaker 8: the most, the people that are segregated in Boston, because
• 32:47
  Speaker 8: in the history of Boston they have these spare policies. Hey, yeah,
• 32:52
  Speaker 8: I was trying that. It didn't really work. Tony ruined
• 32:54
  Speaker 8: the last hour.

  Speaker 8: I'm real mad at Joe Missoula, the coach of Celtics.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: Why are you mad at?
• 33:24
  Speaker 8: I don't think he deserved his job. Number One, I
• 33:26
  Speaker 8: think you know, the other guy should have kept it.
• 33:28

• 38:08
  Speaker 1: How about that? To the third degree, this is one
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: big event? Gets grilled? All right? Cool?
• 38:17
  Speaker 6: Johan Dotson has been in the NFL for four seasons now,
• 38:20
  Speaker 6: and we'll be joining his third team on the Atlanta Falcons.
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: New team president Matt Ryan told reporters that he believes
• 38:25
  Speaker 6: Dotson has quote untapped potential. Ben do you think Matty
• 38:28
  Speaker 6: Ice is right?
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: Well, he's gonna what do you expect him to say?
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: He's the guy sucks. That's why he keeps changing teams
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: because he's no good. Of course he's gonna say that. Now,
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: it's one thing to say. The reason you're on what
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: he's gonna be have a third different NFL team is
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: because you haven't gotten there. And if you don't get there,
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: you're you're going to be selling insurance Jehan Dotson. So,
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: how many guys have gone to Atlanta and really blossom
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: with the Falcons?
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: The answer is not many.
• 38:58
  Speaker 6: Next now, speaking of potential pack top pick wide receiver
• 39:01
  Speaker 6: Matthew Golden from last season, was only able to rack
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: up three hundred and sixty one yards and no touchdowns
• 39:05
  Speaker 6: in his rookie season. However, Packers offensive coordinator Adam Stenovich
• 39:09
  Speaker 6: told the media Monday, it's gonna be a big year
• 39:11
  Speaker 6: for Golden.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: Deal agree me, well.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: Yes, he's gonna get three hundred and seventy yards. He's
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: gonna get nine more yards than last year, Koop. So
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: he will have a bigger year Matthew Golden than he
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: did last year for the Green Bay Packers. I love
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: analysis in May, June, and.
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: July, and this is what we have to look forward to.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: Parsing the words of coaches.
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: I would respect these guys if they ever said, oh,
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: this guy's gonna suck, dude, this guy is going he's
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: gonna be out of the NFL.
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: He's not gona even make the team. They never say that.
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: They only say, Oh, this guy's gonna blossom.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: He's got untapped potential.
• 39:47
  Speaker 6: Next, the Pistons narrowly avoided a shocking first round upset,
• 39:51
  Speaker 6: but that was enough to get JB. Bickerstaff a contract extension.
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: Ben. Do you think he earned it? No, he didn't.
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: I wish radio companies operated the way that NBA teams do,
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: and it's they gave him a new contract, but if
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: the Pistons come out next year and are terrible, they'll
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: fire him and then they'll pay him for a couple
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: extra years. That's the way this works in pro sports.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: That's why I have no problem ripping guys to get fired.
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: How did we do you pass this edition? That is
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: a roll bunny on the bark
