• 3:09
  Speaker 2: hour and our lead story from pro Bouncy Ball, the
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: story everyone's talking about. Everyone's got an opinion on this
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: from uptown Charlotte, not downtown Uptown Charlotte Baby and the
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: only mascot named after a flying insect. The Charlotte Hornets
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: were in action there and the fake playoffs, so it's
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: not really the playoffs, it's not the regular season.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: It's the twilight zone. Do do Do Do Do Do Do.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: Do do stats that go into a vacuum. That's where
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: we're at. So were you watching this? The games were
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: both close, like to say bye to the Suns.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: They were eliminated.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: A nice choke job there laid against the Portland Trailblazers.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: So there out and the game we're gonna talk about.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: The feature here involves the Hornets in the heat and
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: it went to over time. A little overtime action. Kobe
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: White had a big shot to send the game into
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: an overtime situation, but LaMelo Ball having a ball, LaMelo
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Ball making a layoup with less than five seconds on
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: the clock, four point seven seconds left in overtime, and
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: then Miles Bridges somehow able to leap up despite having
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: all that baggage, Miles Bridges able to block the Davion
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Mitchell attempt. He went coast to coast to try to
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: lay it up and win the game for Miami. Keyword
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: there try at the buzzer block shot. Good afternoon, good evening,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: and good night. And from Miami, nana na na naaaa,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: hey go bye?
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Is the Hornets win? The Hornets win. He couldn't make
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: a three point shot. They're two big guys. Could not
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: make a three point shot. But they went anyway, twenty
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: seven to one to twenty six to the final.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: In a wacky beginning to the play in and then
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: the Portland Trailblazers taking the late game. But Charlotte will
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: play the loser of the seventy six years Magic Game
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: in the playoffs, the real playoffs, and despite the late
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: fireworks and the dramatic the block shot, the layup to
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: win the game for the Charlotte Hornets. Despite all that
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: the subplot which everyone's yapping about. Well, it happened earlier
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: in the game. The Heat played much of the game
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: without their star center. As the season wrapped up for Miami,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: Bam out of Bio Yeah, yeah, we know who he is. Yeah,
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: so Bam out of Baio suffered a back injury. Oh
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: my aching back back injury. First half And that's where
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: the controversy is. And I learned this in sports talk
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: radio clown College. You focus in on the controversy because
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: everyone has a hot take on the controversy. So here's
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: the hot take, or here's the play, and then we'll
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: get to the hot take. So there was a incident late.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: It was in the first half, so it's a second quarter,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: a second quarter, and Lamello ball was falling.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Down, down, down, down.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: And on the slow motion replay, it appeared that he
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: reached out to grab the ankle of Bam outa Bio.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Now that led to a nuclear reaction from Eric Spolstra.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know if the editor has got this or not.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: I imagine they didn't because they normally don't get these things.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: But it was really good audio, really good audio. Spolstra
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: was asked about the play Lamello ball reaching out as
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: he was falling down there, said he should have been
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: ejected by what he said was a dangerous play. He said, quote,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: I don't this is Eric Spolstra. I don't think it's cute.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's funny. I think it's a stupid play.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: Spoilster tall report, Right, Well, I guess we have I
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: was playing thing we have it. I didn't think we
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: had it. Here we go, here's the Eric Spolster. Oh
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: coop found it. Of course the editors, don't. They in
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: their back having a social hour. All right, go ahead,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: but hit that, hit the button. See it?
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: But that.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: I don't think it's cute. I don't think it's funny.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: I think it's a stupid play. It's a dangerous play.
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: Obviously our best players out. I'm not making an excuse
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: the Hornets. Uh great, they made those plays down the stretch.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: We we had our opportunities to win. I just that's
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: a shame. You know, he should be penalized for that.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: I don't think that belongs in the game. You know,
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: tripping guys, you know shenanigans, and you know Curtis was there.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: It's his responsibility to see that and if it's not
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: his responsibility, then Zach's got to see it. If you know,
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: somebody has got to see that, and that, you know,
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: he should have been thrown out of the game, you
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: know for that. I don't know him from you know, anyone.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: I just there's no place in the game for that, obviously. See,
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: you know it took Bam out of the game.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: All right, there's Eric Spolstra there, and I think it's cute.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: I don't think it's funny, dangerous play, all of that.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: All right, so good jumping off point. Let us discuss
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: as you heard there the Heat coach Eric Spolstra saying
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: that LaMelo Ball should have been ejected, get out of here,
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: get out of here, for what he called a dangerous play,
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: causing the Bam out of bio back injury. So where
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: does your mind go on this one? Where does your
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: mind going this one? So I've got cosmic brass bonanza
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: and the Philly fanatic and we will combine all of
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: these things together and we are going to take a
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: shot in the dark, is what we're going to do,
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: because that's what we do now.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Number one.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: One. So this is a feeding frenzy and it's also
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: a bit of an overreaction.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: It's a bit of an overreaction.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: I realize I'm an age where I grew watching basketball
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: at a different time. I do chuckle considering the things
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: that have happened in NBA games and the over the
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: top feeding frenzy, the attack on lamellow ball, It's like,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: slow down now. When I heard the rant, which we
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: were able to play for you because Coop found it,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: the spo rant I expected, I went back and I
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: watched it, cause I watched it in real time, I
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: was like, Okay, I expected a felony. I expected a felony,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: not a relatively routine play.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: A little on the edge, a little on the edge
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: of things. But it was not.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: This does not deserve a courtroom drama O rama. It
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: does not deserve that. And it also feels like selective outage.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: If you asked me, do you have any kind of
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: empathy for Eric Spolster, who sounded like a broken man
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: talking about this play, the answers no. The answer is no.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: It's funny because I kept some notes. I went back
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: and I recall, well, a couple of years back, I
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: don't remember Eric Spolstra giving a sermon about Caleb Martin,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: who was playing for him at the time, a similar
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: play on Jason Tatum. If my notes are correct, I
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: don't recall Eric Spolstra saying that there's no place in
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: the game for this, and you know you gotta be
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: kicked out, gotta be suspended, all that stuff. No, so
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: spare me, spare me. You're on the other side all
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: of a sudden, Oh, this is not right. I can't
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: believe this's Oh my god. Now I have an unpopular opinion.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: I have an unpopular pin. I had to share with
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: the class, an unpopular pin. My hand, my hand is raised.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: I might share an unpopular opinion. So Spoe shouldn't be
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: mad at LaMelo ball? Why not, maam? And the ball
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: got hurt. Couldn't be very upset? Shut up, all right,
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Spoe should not be upset with LaMelo ball. He should
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: be filing a complaint in the court of karma, as
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: in karma with a capital k erg Cosmic justice. Cosmic justice. Now,
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: I go back and forth on this, and my counselor,
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Andrea in the Bay Area, the Astrology Insider, can help
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: me out. But this certainly seems like cosmic justice. I'll
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: tell you why. The basketball gods also keep notes. They
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: keep notes, and Miami turns out they got some debt
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: they had to pay. Well, what did they do? You're
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: making things up. There's no car over the Miami Heat.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Shut up. They stage dah, they staged They eighty three
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: point farcical. You remember that that circus under the big
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: top there in Miami. I remember it against the Wizards.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: That was some bad sorceries. What that was. We're going
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: full wwe like writing and you do that and expect
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: no blowback. You don't think the universe is gonna bite
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: your ass back when you do that kind of bull
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: crap in an NBA game. Yeah, well, guess what it happened.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: It's not that complicated. It really isn't that complicated. The
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: universe saw Eric Spolstra giggling and laughing. Remember they were
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: intentionally fouling the Washington Wizards so they could get more possessions,
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: so Bam Autebayo could get the eighty three point game.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: So that happened. That kind of funny business. And this
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: was just a nice little reminder. Hey, remember remember the
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: cosmic basketball gods. Well we're still here. Balance has been restored.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: So enjoy your off season. You live in Miami, So
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: what do you go on vacation when you live in Miami.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: It's to stay in Miami because that's where everyone goes
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: on vacation. So you just stay there all right. Now, Pat,
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: you're speaking of the heat from thirty thousand feet up
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: in the sky, the big picture and the better story
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: from the losing locker room. So with it, game over
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: for the Miami Heat. They lost a bunch of games
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: to end the year, and that's why they ended up
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: in the situation. They were in the plan anyway, So
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: what is the master plan to turn around a franchise
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: which is stuck in the mud the Miami Heat. Things
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: not going so well for Miami. So what is the
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: what is the master plan? So you got pat Riley,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: who's in the big chair. Pat Riley is behind the
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: plate there and he's at he's behind the wheel. He's
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: at the wheel. Riley and the Heat are out. They're
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: looking out on the horizon. They're in a boat and
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: they're looking for a whale. They're trying to find a whale,
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: and the problem is it has been many years since
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: they caught a whale. They haven't actually been able to
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: harpoon a whale for some time. It's a problem, and
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: so they're trying to get that where's the whale? We
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: need a whale? Can I get a whale? Riley's looking around,
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: and so now yet again, another season has fizzled away
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: for the Miami Heat, and yet again they are going
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: full Hartford Whalers brass bonanza if you know, you know,
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: brass bonanza, dreaming of dragging in the freak. Let's get
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: freaky as in giannisi Denta Kumbo, the Greek Freak. And
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: every squabble involving a superstar player in the last twenty years,
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: every squabble involving a star player in the NBA turns
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: into a carnival for the Miami Heat. It's either the
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Lakers or the Heat. It's always those teams. Everyone's gonna
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: go to those teams. And so it's often been more
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: smoke without fire. Normally there's not smoke without fire. Somehow
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: there is regarding this and so this is not just
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: a fish story. It's not just any fish stor I mean,
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of fish stores, but this is the
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: one that Riley's been chasing. Had it years ago with
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: Chris Bosh and Lebron James and has been unable to
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: recreate that magic, has been unable to recreate that magic.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: And he's trying, and he's out there and it's like, oh,
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: we got it, we gotta do it, we gotta make
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: this happen. And sure, Giannis, certainly with Milwaukee, it feels
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: shakier than ever. And we've heard this song and dance
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: before and nothing's happened as of yet. A year after
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: year in Miami, they line up the harpoon, they're ready
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: to go, and they come back with the big thing
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: of sardines. Well, we didn't want sardines, but that's all
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: you got. You didn't get the whale. Well why didn't
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: you get the whale? Well, I don't know. We tried
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: to get the whale, but we just ended up with
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: these sardines. And there's a lot of them. Yeah, so
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: close unfortunately does not conquer kingdoms or the NBA. It
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: does not do that. And so here's the gut check.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Pat Riley does he still have the magic pixie dust
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: at age eighty one or is this just what pat
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: Riley was and its just some memories of the legend
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: of Ryles who's been in Miami seemingly forever. But if
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: he misses again, if Giannis ends up on the Knickerbockers
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: or somewhere else and doesn't go into to Miami, this
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: franchise will continue to be on the hamster wheel of mediocrity.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: And the heat haven't been catching whales. They've been chasing
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: a lot of ghosts though, a lot of ghosts. All right,
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Now we move on. The sneaker heads would like to
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: chime in on this. Now. I am not a sneaker
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: I'm not not really a car guy, not a sneaker guy.
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: I'm just a guy, that's all I am. I'm a
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: headphone guy. I'm at Yeah, I'm a hat guy. I'm
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: a heck guy. That's my thing. That's right. I'm a
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: hat guy. I do like cats, but if I had
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: a full head of hair, I don't think I would.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: I would be a hat guy, you know. I think
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: that's more of a byproduct of my situation. Like to
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: blame my parents anyway, So a sneaker guy. Interesting story. Now,
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: I got sent this by a listener. I did not
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: see this on my own. I am not keeping up
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: on the sneaker world. I know, a lot of you
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: boys love sneak. Good for you A way to go.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: I remember, I think I know Rob Parker's got a
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: great collection. Bobo on the radio. I love Bubbo. Bobo
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: had an epic collection of sneakers. And I see Bobo
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: usually once a year at the holiday party, the Ugly
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: Sweater Party. Always look forward seeing Bobo. Good, good dude.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: I loved when he worked on the show. And Bobo
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: he had a huge I remember, massive collection to match
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: every out he had one. All right, So get to
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: the point, all right, I get to the point. So
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: Nike has unveiled a new sneaker. Now, normally this does
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: not reach the level of Malle monologue. Times are a changing.
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: Did you see this? Nike is giving a sneaker too,
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: Bronnie James, Yes, not lebron Bronnie James. Yep that Bronnie James. Yes.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Nike has introduced the lebron nine Witness whatever thing that is.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Nike said, the.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Shoe is quote inspired by Bronnie's recovery and journey back
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: to the court.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: All right, question, what is.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: The word what is the word for Lakers benchwarmer? Bronnie James,
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: What is the word for Lakers bench warmer Bronnie James
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: getting his own sneaker. So I have two words, stolen valor?
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: Are my two My two words basketball? Stolen valor. This
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: is not a shoe drop, if you will for for
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: Bronnie James. It is a participation trophy with laces. Congratulations.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: Well why does it have laces? Well, it's a trophy,
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: but it's got the laces. I don't understand. So this
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: is the greatest case of NBA hype inflation since years
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: ago when some of you idiots tried to tell me
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: that Kyle Kuzma was the next big thing in the NBA.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: I remember, you just don't understand. You're a Laker hater.
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: Kyle Kuzma is going to be so good. You're you're
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: just a hit. So that's what you're doing the Overnight Show. Okay,
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: how's Kyle Kuzman doing. Is he's even still in the
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: NBA anyway? Yeah, I know he is. I know he is.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: So let's keep this real here, just between me and you,
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: let's keep this real. This is the first sneaker, the
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Bronnie James sneaker, inspired by a player's journey to ride
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: his daddy's coattails to the bench. That's about It's about
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: where we are. That's about where we are at this
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: particular point. Even sneaker heads are tapping out. They're like, hey,
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: I can't even defend this, Like this is really bad.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: You know, this is like the Laker historians, So like, okay,
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: that's a little too far. It's a little too.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: Far, Like what are you doing now? I gotta tell you.
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: When I got set this, I thought, okay, this guy's
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: trying to punk me. I think the guy's name is Mike.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: He did not say where he's from, so I don't know.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: I assume he's from southern California, but who knows. H
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: So he sent me, you know, I was like okay.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: So I clicked on it, and I was like, okay,
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: I thought this must be satire. This guy's gonna bust
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: my balls and he wants me to do something. So
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: I check. Then it's apparently not. It's like legit. Nike
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: sent this out on their own accounts. You think they
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: kind of keep that on the DL. They did not,
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: And so I thought, well, this is satire. Sports talk
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: Barry Butt crack sports, one of those deals NBA sentel
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: And then I thought, well, this must be Nike trolling.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: It's not satire, but they're troll No, No, it wasn't that.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: Wasn't that just some good old fashioned nepotism with a swoosh, swoosh, swoosh. Yeah,
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: if my dad played in the NBA, I have my
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: own shoe too. Think about while lebron James plays the
• 20:34
  Speaker 2: puppet master Bronnie James putting up video game tutorial numbers.
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: He's averaging in his career less than three points a game,
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: less than three points a game, and he's a career
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: thirty seven percent shooter. He's essentially the Philly fanatic mascot
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: wearing a Laker jersey is what he is. Yeah, this
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: isn't marketing. It's propaganda. It's propaganda, is what it is.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: In the tagline, inspired by irrelevance, Inspired by irrelevance. And
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: at this rate, doesn't Nike have to hook up some
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: other insider basketball friend guy, Like if you give it
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: to Bronnie James, if you hook Bronnie James up and say, okay,
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: you're gonna get a shoe because your dad, you know
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: who the comps are to Bronnie James, there's no real
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: great comp The closest I could come up with is
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: Isaiah Wong of the Hornets and Deuce McBride, a guy
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: named Deuce for the I believe the place with the Knicks.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: So unfortunately, Isaiah Wong's daddy did not run Nike or
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: did not have a ownership share like lebron does, and
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: so does not get a shoe. And Deuce McBride, that
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: would be a fun name. Let's buy the Deuce be
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: a fun name for a shoe. Are they gonna get shoes?
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: Probably not? Probably not not gonna get shoes. So Bronnie
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: will be the first player I believe history whose sneaker
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: comes with a disclaimer. You know what does the disclaimer say?
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: The disclaimer will say warning, wearing these sneakers will cause
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: your performance to decline. That because there's always like you want.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: Only a few guys got basketball sneaker deals.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: And I know.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: As a kid because I was of the age when
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: this kind of became a thing, although even before it
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: became a thing, like Converse had Larry Bird and Magic
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Johnson and guys like that. But he as a kid,
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: you're like, okay, through the eyes of a child, if
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: I put on these shoes. I'm going to play as
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: well as that player. I'm gonna have superpowers. In this case,
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: you could likely play as well as Brownie James. You
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: could likely play as well. It is the Ben Mahler

  Speaker 2: thought it was im dating myself. But I remember the
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: Hartford Whalers when I am back when I was forced
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: to cover the NHL the Hertford Whalers. Did see them
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: play a few times back back in the day and
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: late night drug tester says Nike should just be honest
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: and say that his sneakers aren't for his basketball skills.
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, he first appeared talking about Bronnie James on
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: the cover of Sports Illustrated as a video gamer, not
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: for hoops. Okay, Scrooge says, Bronnie James getting a Nike
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: deal is the biggest crock of blank I've ever heard.
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: They might as well give you the deal. Ben, You've
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: actually contributed more to the NBA by talking about their
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: bad brand.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Taking shots at me. That's a double whammy from Scrooge.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Every time Bronnie plays, he promotes why you shouldn't watch
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: the NBA.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: That's about right, It's about right.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: I was going to the phones Lucky he is in

• 29:12
  Speaker 8: Okay, Hey, I wanted to tip my barress hat to
• 29:15
  Speaker 8: mouthwash Mike for his forty five days sober And the
• 29:18
  Speaker 8: other day he mentioned something about the third eye and
• 29:22
  Speaker 8: maybe helping alcoholism. So I'm not sure if you're familiar
• 29:25
  Speaker 8: with cyber sul and I believe the correct pronunciation is
• 29:30
  Speaker 8: but it's supposed to help with depression, alcoholism, and some
• 29:34
  Speaker 8: other stuff. I just wanted to shoot that out there.
• 29:36
  Speaker 8: And why should David Bassa be a third base coach?
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 29:41

  Speaker 2: If I was any better, I'd be bam, but not
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: bam out of Baio because the heat have been kicked out.
• 33:17
  Speaker 7: Yes, I've heard a lot of bad takes from you, okay,
• 33:21
  Speaker 7: but not even your cowger Stut Gotts can come up
• 33:24
  Speaker 7: with a lazier take than us losing tonight in overtime
• 33:29
  Speaker 7: by a point because of the Wizards.
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: Yes, you messed with the basketball gods to oh listen,
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: you you support that. That was the most bogus game
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: I've ever seen. It was like professional wrestling. It was
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: an embarrassment, and Vanish commissioned with balls.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: They would have taken.
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: That number away from Bam out of Bayo. It was
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen. And the Heat
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: deserved to lose. And I'm happy they lost. I'm happy
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: they lost.
• 33:57
  Speaker 7: I'm with you. I'm happy. I'm happy for us to
• 33:59
  Speaker 7: get at draft.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: Oh stop with the draft.
• 34:03
  Speaker 7: I'm on your side with that. But you cannot say
• 34:06
  Speaker 7: that we lost because of karma.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Yes, well Bam got Bam got hurt because of karma.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: The basketball gods. They sent a message to LaMelo Ball,
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: they said you got to do this, and he did.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: He didn't want to do it Ball, but he did it.
• 34:21
  Speaker 7: Man, you can come up with a better take than that.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: That's a great take, you know what. I'm gonna send
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: that to the Take Hall of Fame.
• 34:26
  Speaker 7: That take you got, and he's gonna last face and first.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: Of all, student he has an overnight. I sleep while
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: he's on. I don't care what he says, but might
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: that was a great take. Uh so I'm there, I'm
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: on my way. And the fact that you called up,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: I've never spoken to you before. You called up so
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: outraged about a take. That's a take home run. That's
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: a take, that's a take.
• 34:47
  Speaker 5: Home run, laziest take.
• 34:50
  Speaker 7: And then I have a lot of love for you,
• 34:51
  Speaker 7: but that is the most disgustingly laziest.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: That is the greatest take I've ever had. In fact,
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: that that is better than this is before your time.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: But the Dodgers had to get a guy named Mike Piazza,
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: who was like the most popular player in LA at
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: the time. They traded him to your Marlins and then
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: eventually end up in the Mets. And I explained how
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: the Dodgers were better off without Mike Piazza, and people
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: were agreeing with me by the time I got done
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: with that take, that that was my greatest take before
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: saying the basketball gods spit karma.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: At Eric Spolster. But thank you for listening. I do
• 35:23

  Speaker 10: charged with reckless driving, but those charges were dismissed. Ben,

  Speaker 10: record next season.

  Speaker 2: I think Anthony Davis is going to look great sitting

• 39:32
  Speaker 2: the top fashion awards in the NBA sitting his ass
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: down there watching the Wizards play basketball. How do we do, Koobolo?
• 39:38
