0:32
Speaker 2: NBC broadcast repeatedly announcing how proud he was the players
0:36
Speaker 2: were playing hard in the All Star Game? Is that

2:07
Speaker 2: our lead this hour is from the Sunshine State as
2:11
Speaker 2: we begin the new week. Here, the greatest basketball player
2:15
Speaker 2: in the history of the NBA, at least in somewhat
2:18
Speaker 2: modern times, was the headliner on Sundays.
2:23
Speaker 3: Well, it must be the All Star Get No, it
2:25
Speaker 3: was not the All Star game. Bugget it. Mugging it,
2:27
Speaker 3: mugging it, mugging it, mugging and mugging and mugging and muggery.
2:30
Speaker 2: A different kind of title. You were not paying attention.
2:33
Speaker 2: Bad job by you. But Michael Jordan, who I'm told
2:37
Speaker 2: has six NBA championships Back when guys actually tried, played hard,
2:42
Speaker 2: didn't half the league didn't tank like the days of today.
2:45
Speaker 2: But anyway, so Michael Jordan's six time NBA champion and
2:49
Speaker 2: he was able to get her done at the Daytona
2:52
Speaker 2: five hundred.
2:53
Speaker 3: Now he did not actually race in the Daytona five.
2:55
Speaker 2: Hundred, but he spent a lot of his Nike money,
2:58
Speaker 2: a lot of that Nike money Michael Jordan spent to
3:01
Speaker 2: get it done. And somebody named Tyler Reddick a rather
3:05
Speaker 2: generic dame, but he won the Great American Race the
3:09
Speaker 2: Daytona five hundred last lap, did not lead.
3:13
Speaker 3: Until the final lap. There were a couple of.
3:16
Speaker 2: Tremendous rex is one that knocked half the field out,
3:20
Speaker 2: or so it seemed there at Daytona International Speedway. But
3:24
Speaker 2: Michael Jordan the headline here. He's the one that's the
3:27
Speaker 2: sugar daddy for that NASCAR team, and they get her
3:31
Speaker 2: done same day as the NBA All Star Game. In fact,
3:36
Speaker 2: they moved up the Daytona five hundred because of weather concerns,
3:40
Speaker 2: and so the timing on this could not have been better.
3:43
Speaker 2: The Basketball Hall of Famer Bear hugging Reddick took a
3:47
Speaker 2: great photo as he really gets into it with the
3:51
Speaker 2: trophies he's really emotional with the trophies there when he
3:54
Speaker 2: gets to hang out with the trophies there. So his
3:57
Speaker 2: birthday is coming up Jordan on Tuesday, little early birthday present,
4:00
Speaker 2: and he'll turn sixty three years young there. And he said, quote,
4:04
Speaker 2: it feels like I won a championship.
4:07
Speaker 3: But until I get my ring, I won't even know.
4:10
Speaker 3: Do they give out rings for the Daytona five hundred?
4:12
Speaker 2: Really, I don't know anyway, Reddick in a Toyota led
4:18
Speaker 2: only one lap.
4:19
Speaker 3: Again, that's the thing.
4:20
Speaker 2: He led only one lap on Sunday and it was
4:23
Speaker 2: the final one right at the checkered flag, and the
4:27
Speaker 2: twenty fifth different driver that ended up in that position
4:33
Speaker 2: there at the Daytona five hundred, a record in the lead,
4:37
Speaker 2: and the last one's the one that gets the the bling,
4:40
Speaker 2: bling and all that.
4:41
Speaker 3: So good.
4:42
Speaker 2: Jumping off point, let us discuss the question for the
4:45
Speaker 2: Esteem panel. Did Michael Jordan's team winning the Daytona five
4:51
Speaker 2: hundred upstage the NBA All Star Game in SoCal And
4:57
Speaker 2: so I've got daily double rusted out Buick and the
5:01
Speaker 2: Jerry Lewis telethon, and we will combine all of these
5:05
Speaker 2: things together and we're gonna make grits is what.
5:07
Speaker 3: We're gonna make. Yum, yum, unless.
5:09
Speaker 2: It's not so a To answer the question, did Michael
5:13
Speaker 2: Jordan upstage the NBA All Star Game?
5:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, I am nodding my head. I'm not.
5:18
Speaker 2: In fact, I'm nodding my head so hard right now
5:21
Speaker 2: that I'm gonna need a neck brace.
5:23
Speaker 3: That's how hard I'm nodding my head on this. Listen.
5:25
Speaker 2: While the NBA spent All Star Weekend rearranging the deck
5:29
Speaker 2: chairs on the SS irrelevant now. The All Star Game
5:33
Speaker 2: itself wasn't as bad as it's been. The bar's pretty low.
5:36
Speaker 2: The bar is pretty low. The rest of the events
5:39
Speaker 2: over All Star weekend horrific. It was so bad. It
5:42
Speaker 2: was so bad. The All Star Friday thing, the Saturday
5:49
Speaker 2: which used to be like the Jewel, the Dunk Contest,
5:52
Speaker 2: the three point God just got it terrible.
5:54
Speaker 3: So yes, yes, Michael Jordan.
5:58
Speaker 2: While the NBA was doing their thing Futson around in
6:01
Speaker 2: Inglewood with the new format, the new gimmicks, and they
6:05
Speaker 2: just keep throwing stuff against the wall, Michael Jordan's out
6:07
Speaker 2: there popping champagne at the Daytona five hundred, like you
6:11
Speaker 2: hit another jumper, over Byron Russell and salt Lake or
6:15
Speaker 2: craig Elo in Cleveland. And just to add another notch
6:18
Speaker 2: in the bedpost. And for Jordan though, this is the
6:22
Speaker 2: daily double, the daily double for mj because this is
6:26
Speaker 2: a couple of months after staring down NASCAR in Federal court.
6:31
Speaker 2: You remember when Jordan went to Federal court and it
6:34
Speaker 2: was suing NASCAR. There's an anti trust situation there. The
6:39
Speaker 2: France family, the first family of NASCAR, the ones that
6:42
Speaker 2: control the whole thing. There were a lot of fireworks
6:45
Speaker 2: in that, and so he's out there celebrating above the
6:50
Speaker 2: super Speedway. They're built by the France family and all
6:54
Speaker 2: that the empire.
6:56
Speaker 3: And got it done.
6:58
Speaker 2: So then yet Jim France, the chairman who strolled to
7:02
Speaker 2: the victory lane and all the big shots there from
7:05
Speaker 2: NASCAR to clap and applot and the irony served on ice,
7:10
Speaker 2: big chunks of ice, got that and Jordan called it gratifying.
7:15
Speaker 2: The translation is checkmate with horsepower is what that is?
7:20
Speaker 2: Checkmate with horsepower for Michael Jordan. So advantage Jordan yet again,
7:25
Speaker 2: and much more interesting than the All Star Game in
7:29
Speaker 2: LA Now speaking of that though.
7:32
Speaker 3: In the hood in Inglewood we go to that now.
7:35
Speaker 2: The seventy fifth installment of the NBA Mid Season Classic,
7:39
Speaker 2: which is not actually mid seasons past mid season.
7:43
Speaker 3: Here a round robin tournament.
7:46
Speaker 2: It was a Frankenstein type All Stars set up.
7:50
Speaker 3: Here.
7:51
Speaker 2: You had two teams of American stars, the third set
7:56
Speaker 2: of stars representing the globe the world. So you had
8:00
Speaker 2: one team representing everything other than America, and then two
8:03
Speaker 2: you had the older old heads American team and then
8:06
Speaker 2: you had the younger group of American teams.
8:08
Speaker 3: So that was the matchup. They had three teams.
8:12
Speaker 2: They were playing each other in twelve minute games and
8:16
Speaker 2: that's how it all went down there. The All American
8:18
Speaker 2: Championship Game, like the All American Diner, came down to
8:22
Speaker 2: the two American teams there and the team with the
8:25
Speaker 2: mostly younger roster I was able to get it done
8:29
Speaker 2: and they won in a route or route depending on
8:34
Speaker 2: how you want to say it there, but they won
8:36
Speaker 2: by twenty six points, nine points by Tyrese Maxiy of
8:40
Speaker 2: the Sixers in that last blowout non competitive game over
8:45
Speaker 2: the All Star Festifies Edwards Anthony Edwards was your MVP
8:51
Speaker 2: of the All Star Game. There should have been Kawhi Leonard,
8:54
Speaker 2: but they couldn't give it to a guy on the
8:55
Speaker 2: team that didn't win, so they gave it to Edwards.
8:59
Speaker 2: The most ressive stretch of basketball was Kawhi Leonard and
9:02
Speaker 2: people that know ball know that, but they couldn't give
9:04
Speaker 2: it to him. So Anthony Edwards had ten of the
9:07
Speaker 2: fourteen first place votes and he is your MVP from
9:11
Speaker 2: the media fanboys.
9:14
Speaker 3: Who were out there. So question.
9:16
Speaker 2: By all accounts, the All Star Game was better than
9:20
Speaker 2: it has been in terms of competitive play. So the
9:23
Speaker 2: question is this, has the NBA solved the All Star
9:27
Speaker 2: Game conundrum? Have they solved it? So this was a
9:32
Speaker 2: market improvement. This wasn't an upgrade situation for the NBA.
9:36
Speaker 2: And as much as I'd like to come in here
9:38
Speaker 2: and just say it was terrible all the way through,
9:40
Speaker 2: no what the.
9:40
Speaker 3: Last game sucked.
9:42
Speaker 2: The NBA they stop the bleeding for the All Star Games.
9:48
Speaker 2: That's as far as I'll go. Let's not fit Adam
9:52
Speaker 2: Silver though for the robe that says Savior on it.
9:57
Speaker 2: Let's not go that far for Adam Silver, your commissioner
9:59
Speaker 2: of the n After years and years of mad science tinkering,
10:06
Speaker 2: they have figured something out right. The playground draft, they
10:10
Speaker 2: had the rising Stars gimmick. All that stuff went over
10:15
Speaker 2: like a lead balloon. They went global this year, although
10:20
Speaker 2: two of the three teams were just US guys, but
10:22
Speaker 2: they had the Global team as well and the top
10:24
Speaker 2: global stars. Most of them decided they did not want
10:28
Speaker 2: to play. They could not play. It's too difficult for
10:31
Speaker 2: these gentlemen to play, so they didn't want to play.
10:33
Speaker 2: So it was mostly like the backup guys on the
10:36
Speaker 2: world team, and so USA versus the World.
10:38
Speaker 3: They stole that from hockey.
10:39
Speaker 2: Hockey was doing that, or the Olympics which are going
10:42
Speaker 2: on right now, the Winter Olympics there and so all
10:45
Speaker 2: this there at the end to a dome in Inglewood,
10:49
Speaker 2: and so it was a little bit better. There was
10:51
Speaker 2: occasionally defense being played there. The players actually look like
10:55
Speaker 2: they were playing a form of basketball and not just
10:59
Speaker 2: total grab ass.
11:00
Speaker 3: So that was that was all good stuff. That was
11:03
Speaker 3: all good stuff.
11:04
Speaker 2: And I mentioned Anthony Edwards ant Man, the MVP of
11:06
Speaker 2: the All Star Game there the claw though Kawhi Leonard
11:10
Speaker 2: put on a show for the ages there as he
11:13
Speaker 2: had a thirty one point barrage thirty one point barrage
11:18
Speaker 2: there in the second game, the middle game, which I'm
11:23
Speaker 2: sure upset that podcast guy that's trying to get Kawhi out.
11:26
Speaker 3: Of the NBA. I'm sure he's upset that. I don't
11:29
Speaker 3: get his name, but you know nobody.
11:31
Speaker 2: But the preliminary games were legitimately competitive.
11:36
Speaker 4: They were.
11:36
Speaker 2: There were three games that came down to the very
11:38
Speaker 2: end there and decided by one possession, so they go.
11:43
Speaker 3: However, in the final was a dud Lee do right.
11:46
Speaker 2: Key part of that dud dud Lee do right, it
11:49
Speaker 2: was a dud us stretch running out of gas, and
11:53
Speaker 2: they got smoked in that final game. They ran out
11:58
Speaker 2: of gas faster than a rusted out buick on the
12:01
Speaker 2: side of the road, losing by twenty six points. There
12:03
Speaker 2: for the climax of All Stars Sunday in Inglewood, there
12:08
Speaker 2: and Adam Silver, he found a format that for thirty
12:11
Speaker 2: six minutes of game time actually did something. There was
12:14
Speaker 2: a little something there and now I just needs to
12:17
Speaker 2: find a way to keep these stars from checking out
12:20
Speaker 2: before the trophy ceremony, which is what happened here now
12:22
Speaker 2: the last word here to the broadcast itself.
12:28
Speaker 3: So I'm not sure if you were watching the game
12:30
Speaker 3: or not. I'm probably not.
12:32
Speaker 2: I was not anticipating watch him but I had to
12:34
Speaker 2: have something on in the background.
12:36
Speaker 4: I was was.
12:37
Speaker 2: Watching the Daytona five hundred and then the timing on
12:39
Speaker 2: as I'll flip over the All Star Games, and then
12:40
Speaker 2: the All Star.
12:41
Speaker 3: Game was on.
12:41
Speaker 2: I had that in the background. Really wasn't much else
12:44
Speaker 2: going on, so I was like, I'll just leave that on.
12:46
Speaker 2: So I had it on, and Reggie Miller, good old
12:48
Speaker 2: Reggie Miller, was getting cooked, getting smoked for his commentary
12:54
Speaker 2: during the All Star Game on and me see see,
12:57
Speaker 2: I had the former Indiana pacer who survived the broadcast shakeup.
13:03
Speaker 2: He had been a turner and Turner's out so he
13:05
Speaker 2: went over to NBC there and he was calling the
13:08
Speaker 2: game alongside Noah Eagle and Jamal Crawford, former Clipper Jamal Crawford.
13:13
Speaker 2: There they were all lined up, and the fans and
13:16
Speaker 2: most observers watching had one issue, one somewhat large issue
13:22
Speaker 2: with Reggie Miller and his commentary in the All Star
13:25
Speaker 2: Game on Sunday, which was evening for most afternoon in
13:29
Speaker 2: the West, and the issue was over and over and
13:35
Speaker 2: over again. Reggie Miller, at every opportunity, like a proud papa,
13:41
Speaker 2: had to let everyone know the players are playing hard.
13:45
Speaker 3: Wee, the players are playing hard. Wee.
13:49
Speaker 2: Oh he was so happy, he was so excited the
13:53
Speaker 2: players were playing hard.
13:55
Speaker 3: Oh my god, look at the effort. It was so good.
14:03
Speaker 2: All right, So question, what did you make of Reggie
14:08
Speaker 2: Miller repeatedly yapping about how hard the NBA All Stars
14:14
Speaker 2: were playing.
14:15
Speaker 3: So, Reggie, you know what he did.
14:17
Speaker 2: He acted like a substitute teacher who was trying to
14:21
Speaker 2: convince the class that the movie they're watching is educational.
14:27
Speaker 2: This very is educational. Trust trust me, it's educational. Every
14:33
Speaker 2: other possession, every other possession. Reggie Miller is out there
14:38
Speaker 2: and he's going on and on and on and on.
14:42
Speaker 2: I mean, no, look how hard they're playing. Oh my god,
14:45
Speaker 2: the effort. Oh, it was so good. And does like, Hey, Reggie,
14:52
Speaker 2: we we can figure out what's going on here.
14:55
Speaker 3: We don't need you to tell us.
14:56
Speaker 2: I know you might think that we are taking the
14:58
Speaker 2: short bus here, but you chill out a little bit
15:01
Speaker 2: so we can see the dives. When that happens. We
15:04
Speaker 2: are aware of that. We can hear them if we're blind.
15:06
Speaker 2: The closeouts, we can hear that as well. The sweaty armpits,
15:11
Speaker 2: we can we can check that out. We have the HDTV,
15:14
Speaker 2: we have all that stuff there. So generally speaking, when
15:18
Speaker 2: the effort is obvious, When the effort is obvious, and
15:23
Speaker 2: that's fine, you don't need to announce it twenty seven
15:26
Speaker 2: times in each game. You don't have to do that.
15:30
Speaker 3: Just no.
15:31
Speaker 2: It's it's like, come on, now's like you're reading a
15:33
Speaker 2: hostage note or something like that, and that's the vibe.
15:37
Speaker 2: I god, this felt mandated to me, felt like in
15:40
Speaker 2: their production me to get NBC, They're like, Okay, here's
15:42
Speaker 2: what we're going to focus on. Let's really it's really
15:46
Speaker 2: kind of bulls eye in. We've got to bulls eye
15:49
Speaker 2: in on the effort, the energy of the players.
15:53
Speaker 3: That's what we're gonna do.
15:54
Speaker 2: It is like Adam Silver or one of his henchmen
15:56
Speaker 2: at the NBA slipped a post it note, one of
15:59
Speaker 2: the yellow post it notes in the production meeting and said,
16:04
Speaker 2: mention competitiveness.
16:07
Speaker 3: Any time there's.
16:08
Speaker 2: A lull in the action, mention how competitive it is
16:12
Speaker 2: like every two or three minutes or else you will
16:16
Speaker 2: not be calling the All Star Game again.
16:19
Speaker 3: All right.
16:19
Speaker 2: It was like the Jerry Lewis telethon of Hustle. Really
16:24
Speaker 2: what it's a quota system, and it.
16:27
Speaker 3: Is like, you know, Reggie were light on the.
16:30
Speaker 2: Mensons in the third quarter. Hustle, hustle, hustle, do the hustle.
16:34
Speaker 2: It's like that disco song from back in the day.
16:36
Speaker 2: You got to do the hustle. And here's the irony again.
16:40
Speaker 2: The irony on this is the more you scream the
16:43
Speaker 2: players are trying, oh man, they're going for it, they're
16:47
Speaker 2: diving on the court, the more it feels like they're not.
16:50
Speaker 2: So just let it breathe, dude, Like, seriously, if it's real,
16:55
Speaker 2: it sells itself and you don't have to get out
16:59
Speaker 2: there on your your high horse and start ranting and
17:01
Speaker 2: all that stuff. The constant reminders from Reggie Miller that
17:05
Speaker 2: the players were playing hard, that's really what ruin it.
17:08
Speaker 1: Now.
17:08
Speaker 2: At some point I did hit the mute button, so
17:11
Speaker 2: I did tune them out. I'm told they continued the
17:14
Speaker 2: part I tuned out of. But I was watching those
17:17
Speaker 2: first couple of games and it was hustle, hustle, hustle, hustle, hustle, hustle, hustle. Yeah,
17:22
Speaker 2: it went from organic competition to infu mercial and as
17:28
Speaker 2: I said, the Jerry Lewis telethon type thing where there's like, okay,
17:32
Speaker 2: mention this every couple minutes, get the phones ringing, and
17:36
Speaker 2: we're good to go on that.

27:08
Speaker 2: You there was a bit of controversy Which i'm trying
27:13
Speaker 2: to wrap my head around this one. Too Jalen brown
27:14
Speaker 2: on The. Celtics he made a big scene. Here HE
27:18
Speaker 2: i guess rented out a home In Beverly hills and
27:23
Speaker 2: he needed to get some permits or something like, that
27:26
Speaker 2: and he didn't get the, permits and then of course
27:28
Speaker 2: the cops shut down the. Event this On saturday, night
27:31
Speaker 2: and so he of course then went to.
27:34
Speaker 3: The media and you, know got up and it was
27:37
Speaker 3: all upset and all that. Stuff But.
27:40
Speaker 2: I'm shinny how much HE i don't know how much he.
27:42
Speaker 2: SPENT i didn't see the dollar, amount but they ran
27:43
Speaker 2: out of those houses In Beverly. Hills i've read like
27:46
Speaker 2: fifty thousand dollars plus.
27:48
Speaker 3: Even for like a.
27:49
Speaker 2: Night and there was an incident On. Saturday he was
27:53
Speaker 2: supposed to host this. Thing the thing got canceled minutes
27:56
Speaker 2: before it even got, started and he was it was
27:59
Speaker 2: a some panel discussion and it was gonna be attended
28:03
Speaker 2: by a couple hundred people and part of The All
28:06
Speaker 2: star weekend and all that. Stuff and so then he
28:09
Speaker 2: went on a social media rant complaining about all. That but,
28:12
Speaker 2: like even EVEN, i who have not done a lot
28:15
Speaker 2: of business In Beverly, hills have been there a few
28:17
Speaker 2: times for events over the. YEARS i know that they
28:19
Speaker 2: don't mess around In Beverly hills like. You if you
28:22
Speaker 2: don't have the right paperwork and all, that you don't
28:24
Speaker 2: have the right, permit your your chances of making it
28:28
Speaker 2: through the night unscathed are not. Good SO i don't
28:31
Speaker 2: know all the inner workings of, that but from WHAT i,
28:34
Speaker 2: say and they they they're claiming there was no permit
28:37
Speaker 2: and all that, stuff and and yet he tried to
28:41
Speaker 2: have the event and he's claiming didn't need it or.
28:44
Speaker 2: Whatnot They Beverly hills released a. Statement they of course
28:48
Speaker 2: said the event permit had been applied for but denied
28:53
Speaker 2: and because of previous violations or whatever at the. Property
28:56
Speaker 2: So Jaylen brown was all upset about that and claiming
29:00
Speaker 2: that everyone's trying to.
29:01
Speaker 3: Hold them down and.
29:02
Speaker 2: All of, course but if you've got like the proper,
29:05
Speaker 2: permit it would not be that big big an. Issue
29:09
Speaker 2: And i'm sure that was a would have been a
29:11
Speaker 2: riveting event On saturday.
29:13
Speaker 3: Night and my, god what.
29:14
Speaker 2: Do They they could just go somewhere in the public
29:16
Speaker 2: and then just do it out in public, somewhere they
29:18

29:21
Speaker 2: hills Of Beverly. Hill they don't like the big private
29:23
Speaker 2: parties there In Beverly. Hills they're not big fans of.
29:25
Speaker 1: That
