• 0:36
  Speaker 2: the night so yeah, they pushed our game up because
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: of sunset times. Ran out last week in the middle
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: of thunderstorm, So makeup games tonight. In terms of what
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: else is good, it's not a great day to be
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: mostly a Barrier sports fan, but it is a great
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: day to be a stand as a Sharks fan.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: And that's all I can Yeah, what's his name, caml Laurie.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: What's his name?
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Mac Vin Celebrady? The guy was mentioning last week? Whose
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: name you didn't remember? Yeah, signed a long contract extension
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: today and became the highest paid player in the game.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: This guy's that nice, he's that bad man. Wait, how
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: old is he?
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: He's nineteen, one hundred and fifteen points.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Last year at nineteen is crazy. He was a number
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: one pick.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: The prior twenty twenty four.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, twenty twenty four. See May and my Rangers. Man,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: you know the year that they got the number one pick,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: it was like a like a Soso guy. There was like, oh,
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: is it going to be this guy is going to
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: be that guy. There wasn't like that can't miss guy.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Like it clearly this guy is. He had that many
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: points in nineteen. That's crazy. And being the highest player,
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: even if it is temporary because other guys are going
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: to sign deals later in the offseason, being the highest
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: paid player in nineteen, I mean, like that's some precedented
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, that doesn't happen in sports really.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: And it was a great job by Shark's management. Looking
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: at other teams management in the same area who didn't
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: mess around with the kid. They just they got right
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: to business. So that was that was great, really big
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: deal for us. You know, there's that. But you know,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: just a counterpoint of the Rangers. All I say, Laperdier
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: when the Rangers had the number one pick was kind
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: of a can't miss prospect.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: He was, but that's because number two wasn't that good.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I can remember you. I remember you telling me back
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: then that like La, He's gonna be the number one.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: But it's not like you know, economy David type situation.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. Celebrini on their hand was like a big
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: David type situation. But even before the year before we
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: thought we missed out to Connor Dhard and well, yeah
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: he's I mean, he's good, but he ain't Celebrini.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Where's Celebrini from?
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Uh grew up he actually, you know, he grew up
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: in Canada. But this is where the basketball tie comes in.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: His dad, Rick is the head of sports performance for
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: the Warriors, So he grew up in that Warriors dynasty
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: locker room. Like he grew up around step and Clay
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: and Draymond her so he he knows a thing or two,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: like he grew up in pro locker rooms and gets it.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Sounds like a guy. Let's go ahead and make that
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: segue that we're going to talk about the King of
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: New York who grew up in locker rooms, namely the
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Knicks locker room in his young years due to his
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: father being a journeyman in the NBA. And we got
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: another clip of just New York City and how they're
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: treating their King of New York. So Jalen Brunson out Okay,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: rewind all right, So you got Michael Porter Jr. Standing
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: on a street corner and speaking to some sort of
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: clipboard in the ear you know, I mean the ear
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: piece and clipboard and handguy. Which you know, if you've
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: ever spent some time doing any sort of night life
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: in New York City, you know that literally like anything
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: from us anything more than a bar, and sometimes a
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: bar has at least one of these guys. And these
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: dudes think you're the coolest person in the entire world.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: And I mean I can remember being a young man
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: and go on the spots like a like a spot
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: like bed where I don't I'm sure it doesn't actually,
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: I know it doesn't exist in the city anymore. But
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: it was a spot where, you know, literally upstairs rooftop
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: joint and there was beds everywhere, and you know, it
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: was a great bar like but I can remember standing
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: in line at that place and the cost that they
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: first tried to float us to a table was not
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: even a possibility for us. So I had one homeboy
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: who is you know, his parents took care of him,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: gave him a credit Card's dude, I'll just put in
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: my credit card. You pay me back. I was like,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I'm not paying you that money back. I'm sorry. But
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: so to get into these types of spots, you got
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: that dude who's standing there, and you either got to
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: be on a list, and there's always there's there's a list,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: and then there's a list. One of them is like, Yo,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: you're on this list, You're good. The other one is like, oh,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: you're on this list, you're allowed to wait online, and
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: then you have the Also if you're not on any list, okay,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: So if you're not on any list, obviously ratio matters
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: come up with multiple girls and you know, more, more
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: girls and more, and it's just with both either sex.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: The overall look is maybe the most important thing. Like,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: I mean, I've they've literally I've literally seen him little
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: people up and down and get down to the shoes
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: and be like no, like everything else was good, but
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: not the shoes. And they'll and straight up will tell
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: you like nah na, or they'll just like kind of
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: ignore you and be like, yeah, some other people got
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: to come in pop up on whatever the case may be.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Michael Porter Jr. Is going through this exact same thing
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: while standing outside of a New York club. It's even
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: funnier because Michael Porter Junior in normal people conversations, in
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: normal people visuals is a fucking giant. So he's standing
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: there and the guy with who's looking up at him,
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: you know, getting things figured out. He's so much tall
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: on everybody else, so he's extreme. Not so the camera's
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: on him, and the cam camera starts to pant just
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: a little bit, and you start and you hear somebody
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: scream King of New York in the background, and it's
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Jalen and his wife Ali Brunson walking from their car
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: into the event, and I mean, no one even comes
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: close to stopping them from doing anything. It's just like,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: and he just walked straight straight into the door. Now,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: I think the first clip time I saw the clip, yo,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: it just had Brunson and then walking in and it ended.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: There's a slightly extended clip that shows that MPJ does
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: walk in right after him. So it's not like, you know,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: dude was like stuck out there online, but clearly, and
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if Brunson looked at whoever was
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: on the inside that he walked past and gave them
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: a nine and was like he's good, and therefore he
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: like you know, that's that's why that got resolved so quickly,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: or maybe they were just keeping the doorway clear until
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: the king was able to make his entrance. I'm telling you, man,
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: at this point, yo, this shit like I like, I went,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: like I went back for the parade and the energy
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: was crazy. It was the vibes were in Macula. It
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: was a fantastic time. I honestly, when I saw first
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: on that video, I was like, yo, I got a plan,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: like another trip to New York before the end of
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: the summer, because I need to feel it more. Man,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: I need, I need. I You don't understand, Like you
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: were walking down the street and there was it was
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: just like you know, like Nixon five is currency, Like
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: it's currency. Nick's gear is currency in New York right now.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: And the fact that it's continuing on this way, continuing
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: to see my man JB. He stays in this city.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: The event was justin Bieber's World Cup after party, if
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: you know, by the way, and if you know JB,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: he's a huge Bieber fan. Listens to Biber before every game.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: He says, I I heard somebody ask him, like, you know,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: who do you listen to before every art before every game,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: he said, justin Bieber, gotta know what tracks it is.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm you know, I'm hoping it's more of his
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: later work. But yo, man, it's just it's such a
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: beautiful thing to see in this next level of just
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: absolute adoration that you are seeing from the city, and
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: he deserves every single ounce of it. Man, JB. It's
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: just it's so great, man, a guy who's so humble,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: you know, him and his wife, high school sweethearts, and
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: to see all his dreams come true while he made
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: all of our dreams come true. And for this to
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: really be true, I promise, man, it's it's what it's
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I know exactly how long it's been because, like I
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: told you before, my son broke his foot or his
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: leg that same day shout to him. He got the
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: cast off Monday, we backed baby. But uh yeah, so
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: it's been a little over six weeks. There's still times
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: where it doesn't feel real. My wife the other day,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: I was laying in bed and she looked next she
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: looked at me, looked next to me, or looked at
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: me next to her. And on my phone, you know,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: I was watching just some sort of compilation of JB
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: fucking giving Wemby the business. And my wife was just
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: like smiling. She's like, she's like, she's like, you're literally
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: sitting there looking at that, smiling like you haven't seen
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: it a thousand times already. And I just looked over
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: at her and I was like, it's never gonna get old, bab,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: It's never gonna get old. And you know, Wemby and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: all the Spurs fans, they'll keep fucking crying. Fuck them,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: you know, Spurs Central on uh on Twitter. I'm telling you,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: I know. I know he's engagement farming. I know he's
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: trying to get Nick fans to come. He puts up
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: shit about like the top five teams you know going
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: to next season, doesn't even put the knicks in it,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: you know, talks about I mean, just everything he can
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: and I can't. I can't control myself.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: I have to. I have to.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: I have to every single time coming there. And some
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: times I just reply with a picture. Sometimes it's just
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: a it's just a gift. Sometimes you know, I give
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: a fucking paragraph. You know it's Nixon five is clip
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: back season. I'm gonna fuck with anybody says where anybody
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: has that says anything on on X, on any social
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: media that doesn't properly give the Knicks their respect. I'm
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: coming for you, Philly fans. Y'all are the new ones,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: because now y'all feeling real and bolden because you had
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: the false King chase another ring and decide to come
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: down I ninety five to Philly. How's Bron gonna feel
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: when we play Philly and he's listening to let's go
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: next chance. You already saw we did that shit last
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: year in the playoffs, so you already know that when
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: you play the Knicks next year on our fucking celebration tour,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: when it's an hour and change away and half the price,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: a third of the price, you think we ain't gonna
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: be in there, in there to shoutdown, Bron. You think
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: all those Philly fans are gonna be willing to keep
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: those tickets and not sell them to the highest bidder
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: when that bidder is willing to pay at least two
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: times the face. So get ready for that, Bron. Get
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: ready for that, Bron. You made that soft ass move.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Get ready for that.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Don't forget you guys did it in twenty twenty four too.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: Never forget the side talk video if you knocked them
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: out in six.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Y know, we always always always first of all, yeah,
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: we've dominated them in the playoffs. All of the players
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: that are on Philadelphia other than Lebron Jaylen Brunson dominates them,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: owns them in the playoffs. He's got you know, he's
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: all of them are two and four, two and six,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: two and eight against him and are owing something because
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: anybody who only played again some last year clearly is
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: zero and four and B. He's not going to be
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: able to play defense, He's not going to be able
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: to run up and down the court. He's only going
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: to play twenty two games.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: It's okay, though, he is sure Lebroni's healthy.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, when's the last time Joelle wasn't healthy in July?
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: And when's the last time he was healthy in December.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: It's just it's like clockerker.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: This guy.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Remember he played on the fucking on the on the
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: USA team a couple years. Agoyoh he put on the
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: sateam My Pops is like, yo, what the what if?
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: I he was like, if I was a Philly fan
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: or anybody that worked for the organization and just me
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: as a basketball fan, I feel like, Yo, how are
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: you playing in this extracurriculus shit When you can't play
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: in regular season in playoff games, you need to spend
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: your entire fucking off season in a cryo chamber.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Or some shit. I mean, it's interesting you mentioned that too,
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: because you remember that Olympic year. That's what happened, was
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Kawhi Is. The Clippers basically just said, no, shut it down.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: You need to be healthy for our season, not the
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: USA team. And if you really look at that, you
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: was he was just flought out not and bid was
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: just flat out not good. He was out played and
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: quickly relegated with fetch.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: And I think you're going to see a lot of
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: that this year. And when that guy makes you know,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: fifty sixty million dollars a year, I'm pretty sure he
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: makes fucking sixty and it might be more. It's like
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: sixty five. When he makes that type of bread, guess what,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: he's not going to be able to, you know, be
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: a guy who's missing a lot of time and it
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: not really really hurts your team. And yeah, I'll just
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: be interested to see how it all plays out. It's
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: still Nixon five, you know, you know, I feel like
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: could get us a six, Brock can get a couple.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: You know, one game he max everybody get hot. But yo, man,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I think there's a change that they
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: fall off. How much? How much is he getting paid
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: next year?
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Uh? Embiid? In terms of content, I was gonna start
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: with his house. So I was looking at a stat
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: and he has currently missed forty nine point two percent
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: of his eligible games played throughout his entire career. This
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: season alone, he is due fifty or fifty seven point
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: nine eight five million dollars in salary, and next season
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: that jumps up to sixty two point six million.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Good luck, oh and player option in twenty eight twenty
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: nine for sixty seven. There's do you think there's any
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: chance that Joel Embiid at that point in his career
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: will be taking that player option for for sixty seven?
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: So he's trying to.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Dumb it up to the climate because they can get
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: it with the cap going up too, but it only
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: goes up ten percent every year.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: But it's different with him because he's he's no one's
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: gonna pay him that money. He's not reliable. I also
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: think he's untradable for that reason too. You know, no
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: one's taking everybody The Wizards did just just kidding Anthony Davis,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: so you know what I mean, Like, but I listen anyway,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be interesting to see how that goes. I
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: also think that you know, that team, when I look
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: at it, like they have no answer for us. Inside.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: You know, Joel Embiid can't guard Cat. And when Joel
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Embid's on the floor, like we saw in last year
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: play last year's playoffs, Jalen Brunson hunts him incessantly and
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: it's a it's a bad scene for for for those guys,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: and I don't know, it's not even good for Joel's health.
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: And then also, uh, you know Cat is you know,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: if Joel's off the floor, you got like a huck
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Porty or somebody like that on fucking Cat. That's a
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: per problem for them. And also I think the other
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: big problem is gonna be Lebron trying to deal with og.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Og is gonna be all over the glass. He's gonna
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: be driving to the basket, He's gonna be getting out
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: on the break and running. Lebron's you know, old ass
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: ain't gonna be able to handle that. Yeah, Nix and five.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Fuck it, I said six before I'm bugging Nixon. Five
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: last year, I mean, the four was so bad we
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: won by an average twenty two points. We might sweet they
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: ass too. And then also Bron clearly so badly wants
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: to be with the Knicks. The fact that the Knicks
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: this offseason, if you could have told me last year,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: this time, or even especially if you told me a
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: couple of seasons ago, and would have said to me, hey,
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: next year, next offseason, Giannis and Lebron their first choice
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: is going to be to come to the Knicks, but
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: the Knicks will say no, thank you. What what is life?
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: Yo?
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: What a crazy, crazy, crazy thought that is? But yeah, man,
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: I feel like going into this season, obviously the Knicks
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: the number one seed. I don't even really think that
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: they are the two seed.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Philly Nick, I need to take you down memory lane
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: for a minute here and give you some props. When
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: we used to work together at the start of our friendship,
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: how you used to tell us the Knicks were always
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: on everyone's list during free agency, and now it's just
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: like really happening, And like I think back to that
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: say and like, holy crap, they really are They're like
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: number one on every prominent player's list. I mean usually
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: they probably were, because you know, New York was very different.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Even women Knicks were, you know, in their crappy state.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: But seeing it come to life when they're actually legit
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: good in the chance, that was just absolutely wild to
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: think about. And uh, you know you were never wrong
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: just early.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: Yo, man, appreciate that because we're up like I have.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: I didn't even I haven't even thought about that in
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: so long. But you guys used to always give me
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: so much shit about like and of course, yes they're
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: on the list. I know, I know, I know. But
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: the thing is, back then we were on the list.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: But then you had meetings with a guy like Lebron
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: and you bring out a video like Tony Soprano and
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: all this other shit and coming to New York and like,
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: don't talk any basketball to a guy who's clearly obsessed
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: with basketball for real, for real. I don't blame Bron
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: for not coming back then. I think the only way
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: you come back then if you're Bron and he's at
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: that point in his career where he's like, yo, if
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: I'll start winning some championships, no one's gonna call me
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: one of the greatest. At that point, you either stay
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: in Cleveland and you realize that whatever you do and
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: whatever you make happen then is going to be like epic,
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: or you go to the place where you can stack
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: the deck the most, and that clearly was Miami. So
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: I don't really blame him for that decision, honestly at
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: that point of his career. Now, if you do that,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: I think you should probably stay in Miami for the
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: rest of your career. Now, if you decide, okay, I'm
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: gonna leave Miami and go back to Cleveland, I definitely
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: think that you should just stay there for the rest
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: of your career and end it. Now you've gone to
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: LA and you know, we'll see how this Philly thing
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: plays out. I'm sorry, it's not it's just not the
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: same If even if he wins another championship in another location,
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: it's still not the same. I still wouldn't consider his
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: career as great as even like some of those guys
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: like he's a he's a better Okay, this is this
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: is a hot take. He's a better player than Dirk.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: He's had a better like you know, he's a better
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: basketball player, he's more accomplished all those more accolades. He's
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: won more finals every fucking year for a decade, basically
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: all those things. I personally like Dirk's career better than his.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, it's two different things. And uh yeah, man,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: I just feel like, you know, uh, it's gonna be interesting.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: You did you see what Jason Williams said about Lebron
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: and uh he said, he said that he felt like
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: he was talking to He said, the Nicks will be
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: better than them, he said, and he threw out there
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: because his co host on that on that show, fuck
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: what's it called? I forget what was called? I listened
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: to it all the time, Jason Williams. Jason Williams podcast
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: is fantastic. But yeah, so uh yeah, he was saying
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: that he thinks like Nick's gonna be better than them.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: And then he said he said, he said Orlando Magic. Now,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: he lives in Orlando and so he always pulls for
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: the Magic, and he said they're gonna have a better record.
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's a crazy take. First of all,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: I think Orlando is a team's on the come up.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Second of all, you know, they need health, man, they
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: need they need Wagner specifically, who's a bad motherfucker. You know,
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: people do not know how nice he is. If he could,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: if he could stay healthy, I think they they could
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: be a better a better team. And I could just
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: see Philly with the little that Lebron's gonna play, the
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: little that Embiid's gonna play, the chemistry issues that seem
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: like are just going to be part of that team
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: in there, and because of their overall makeup, I don't
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: see it. I don't see it. And you know they
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: got to deal with O. You're gonna deal with Cat.
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: Shout to Cat. Happy for Kat. Cat's been uh you know,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: making his rounds doing interviews and ship and just looks
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: like he's so so happy. If you if you follow
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Jordan woods on on On on Instagram, kat is winning
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: in all aspects of life. Uh yeah, but what's up
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: with because yeah, before I gotta talk. I gotta talk
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: about this before you get up out of here. I
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: know you got a role, so Steph, Stephan, you know,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: it seems like could be it's somewhat of a crossworlds
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: with Golden State. He had some comments about like when
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: you're going to get guys, you know, you gotta wait
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: till everything happens a what happens behind the scenes. But bah, bah,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: talk to me a little bit about that film me
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: and tell me how you feel.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: The Ducks obviously didn't get Lebron Steph basically you know,
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: and actually kind of made me think of, like you know, sales,
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: It's like, you don't the deal, you don't manifest the
• 21:23
  Speaker 2: deal happening. You don't count the deal happening until it
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: actually happens, which actually brings me back to another Zendreach
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: memory at that protein house.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Good, nice little punny joke. But yeah, you know, Steph,
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: I think you know, it seems like them and ownership
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: aren't on the same page right now in terms of
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: what to do. I think there's moves the Warriors could
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: have made that it seems like Joe Lacub, the owner
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: or the governor I think is what they call him now,
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: the NBA is just withholding and he thinks he's the
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: smartest guy in the room. And you look at the
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: Warriors organization now. Ever since Bob Buyer's left, and you know,
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: even if you go back a few years, lake up
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: man Jerry West that he said he wanted to go
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: to a place where he felt wanted, and Bob Meyers
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: would ever do that because Bob Myers knows it sparts.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: Steve Curse would definitely not do that. You look at
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: the assistant coaches he hires. He always has ana former
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: NBA head coach on his bench, So the common adominator
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: there is Lacomb and then Myers. Result one of the
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: things he said in his goodbye press conference is you know,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: and he said it tongue in cheek. He's like super
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: excited not get called twenty times a day about this guy,
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: So you know, it's it's it's starting to get a
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: little concerning that we're starting to make more steps towards
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: the Chris Cohan era now than we were the Joe
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: lacob era. He builds up a ton of equity, Like
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: you can't deny what lacub has done and what he's
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: accomplished in you know, ten to fifteen years as the owner.
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: But it's starting to get a little concerning that he's
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: starting to get in the way a little bit too much, meddling,
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: a little too much. There's starting to be a little
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: new school Jerry Jones behind to him, and I don't
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: like it.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: Hmm. Yeah. Listen, I don't know too uh too much
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: about the new regime. I know Bob Myers, and you know,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I know uh uh the I listen. I think when
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: you hit, when you hit like they did on those
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: on those three draft picks, like not three just players
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: that like really end up becoming great players, but like
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: three players that complement each other so well. You know,
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: I was explained. I was saying to somebody recently, I
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: feel like that's what this Knicks team is. It's the
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: closest thing to that Dubs team, not in style of play,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: but in the fact that they have that heliocentric you know,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: guard and then they have a bunch of defenders and
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: players around him that can minimize his weaknesses and maximize,
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: you know, his potential.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: And the funny thing is Myers didn't draft two of them.
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: Step and Draymond or step and Clay were previous regime picks.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Draymond was a Myers pick in that whole twenty twelve
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: draft class, which was to this day the best draft
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: class of Warriors history. I don't think they'll have a
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: better one with Draymond, Harrison, Barnes and the ZI League.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: Those guys are all part of those at least one
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: title and key pieces in some way. But you know,
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: they've missed on a lot of draft picks since and
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Lake has medled, especially since the three lottery picks in
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: the early twenty twenties. Early in this decade, he was
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: big in staunch on wanting Cominga. He was you know,
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: big on Wiseman, and he was really the one basically
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: holding Mike dunmaybe and Bob Meyers back for moving Cominga
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: for maybe another piece that could have really helped them.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: You know, write that wrong.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: No doubt. Yeah, man, definitely some things to be concerned.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: You've got to maximize, you know, Stephen Curry's like Twilight Years, Like,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: I don't even see how you don't do that. And
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: to me, seriously, if he were to be a guy
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: that now goes and leaves and becomes some ring chasing
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: mercenary somewhere, that to me would be really really hard.
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: It would be it would suck. But you know what,
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: unlike any other situation or like you look at Lebron
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: who's done his whole career at the stops as hell, well,
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: step the entire Warrior fan base would understand.
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: Oh, I totally we.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: Are all all teams step like. It's crazy. Like there's
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: people who actually are starting to be like, if you're
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: just not gonna do anything for him, just trade him.
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: It's starting to get to that point that talk is,
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: at least among the fan base kind of beginning. And
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: you know, if I'm step right now, he's extension eligible
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: this next month coming up, were him, I would not
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: sign extension. I wouldn't use not signing it his leverage
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: and start, you know, holding make ups feet to the fire.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Hey, I wouldn't. I wouldn't blame Steph at all if
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: he decided to do that.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that I got to take off, all.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Right, brother, good luck tonight man, Yeah man, a super producer.
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: Baum is heading off to go play some competitive kickball.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: We got started a little bit later than we'd like
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: to today. Your boy got held up at his real
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: job and also hit some crazy traffic. But is what
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: it is, man, I'm still here rocking with you. You know,
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: I think that everything he just said about the Warriors
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: is dead on. And it's one of these things that
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: it's a it's a constant in sports, and it's something
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: that is really hard to navigate. Is when you have
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: the great player who is now getting older and the
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: team around him being able to just make it smooth
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: to that like it's good all the way through the
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: end of his career. I mean, Tim Duncan comes to mind,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: but I can't think of a lot of other you know,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: teams and organizations that have figured that out there with
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: the star and that thing at the end where it's like, Okay,
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: we maybe need to move on, but you know we
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: we're not. We can't just trade this guy and he
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: basically has to make a stink. He can want to leave.
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: If the Warriors just like came out and they were like,
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: we think it's best for the team and they trade
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: him and he was blindsided by the situation, that would
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: be all time newsworthy, and the you know, the press
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: and the fans would be, you know, up in arms
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: about something like that. Honestly, I think as they should be. Now.
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: It's a hard one though, because that team is not
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: championship level. You get Lebron and you think you can
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: believe a little bit that it's possible, but really even so,
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: like I it's still not that still not championship level probably,
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: So what do you do? You move on? You do
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: you are you? You try to can start to build
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: the team, and now Steph in his twilight years doesn't
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: have an organization, a team that's trying to win now
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: when now is everything for him. That doesn't make sense either.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: So in that in that situation, I could see Steph saying,
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: you know what, all right, you know, I gotta I
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: gotta make a move. And like I said, I think
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: that would just be a shame as a basketball fan,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: Steph's Curry step for the guy who's supposed to just
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: be on his one team, the Warriors for life. Yeah,

• 29:08
  Speaker 1: But did so. I saw that Francisco Lindor had a
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: quote on Pete Alonzo mets are five and five in
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: their last ten showing a little bit of life. Francisco Lindor,
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: amidst trade rumors, has been playing a basket ball of
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: the entire season. He's had some really really big days
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: at the plate and overall has been taking care of
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: business here recently. And this it came via New York
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: Post Underscore Mets on X doesn't give credit to the
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: actual writer, but on Peter Alonzo, Francisco Lindor had to say,
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: we do all misbeat. We love him, and he's a
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: great player, and he's going to be one of the
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: greatest Mets to ever play. I think they made an
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: effort to keep him. All I know is they thought
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: they were going to improve the team. At the end
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: of the day, we love Pete, we miss Pete. Alonso
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: entered Monday with a eight to twelve ops, twenty two
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: home runs, and it's played all one hundred and six
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: games of the for the Orioles and ranked in the
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: MLB's eighty five percent tile and outs above average at
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: first base. Lindor also added, he's one of the greatest
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: teammates I've ever had. I think this is significant for
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: many ways, and I think it's fascinating in a couple
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: of ways. First and foremost, you know, if you're a
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: fan here, if you knew here, I just the getting
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: rid of Peter Alonzo to me just made no sense
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: on so many different levels. I don't understand how you
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: just thought you were going to replace his offensive production,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: his defense. I know there's lots of metrics and grafts
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: and shit that say it's not very good. I thought
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: that he got it was getting better now these last
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: couple of years. The throws literally, yep, be with the throws,
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: but he's gotten better at, you know, just being in
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: the right spot making plays in the field. And when
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: he comes to picking the ball, not only the eye
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: but the analytics say that he's elite at picking the ball.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: And I, you know, if I'm an infielder and I'm
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: a guy who's throwing the ball over there, that the
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: thing is probably one of the most important to me,
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: especially at first base that doesn't get a ton of
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: balls hit that way. And you know, I want a
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: guy who is gonna be there at the bag and
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: if I make a throw that's a little bit off,
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: he's got a chance to, you know, pick it up
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: out the dirt for me. So he's always been good
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: at that. And then again, twenty two home runs, he's
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: got a pretty good RBI number. I don't got my
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: super producer with me right now. I'm not looking up
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: just that it. So I think it's in the seventies
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: or some shit. It's good. And you know, I don't
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: understand why the Mets thought that like Pola and you know,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: mix and some ventos and maybe some baby was going
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: to give you that. And again second longest streak in baseball.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: He you know, he hasn't he doesn't miss games played
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: all one six. The Mets have one player with an
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: OPS over eight hundred, Pete A. Lonzo's is eight twelve.
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: And I think the fact that Lindore was so effusive
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: about this, he didn't just I mean, because he could
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: say a lot of things. You could be like, hey man,
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: he was great to da da da, you know, team
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: doing a different way. But all I know is they
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: thought they were going to improve the team. At the
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: end of the day, we love Pete. We miss Pete.
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: He's one of the greatest teammates I've ever had. That
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: is effusive, so first and foremost to all the people
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: who were like, well, they're the Mets. They basically got
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: rid of all the white guys, or they got rid
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: of all the MAGA or all the report publicans because
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: of Lindor and his wife and how they feel and
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: how outspoken they are politically and they're leftists and d D.
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: It don't sound to me like Lindor was talking to
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: the people and being like, yo, I can't believe that
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: this guy would be this disingenuous that he was saying
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: to them, we got to get rid of this guy.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: I can't, or like, you know, the chemistry is not
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: good because you know, and he's part of the problem.
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: But then right now he would come out and say this,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: I can't believe this guy's this disingenuous. I can't. He's
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: one of the greatest teammates I've ever had, so to me,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: that even just heightens how fucking stupid David Stearns was
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: to not even make an offer to the all time
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: home run leader, a homegrown kid, heartbeat and the lifeblood
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: of the team. And you don't even make an offer.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: Oh and it's it's all about run prevention. He's fucking
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: eighty fifth percentile and out's above average. Polanco can't buy
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: a fucking hit, can't stay on the field, and has
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: never played first base into this season, and he looks
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: like a guy playing first base for the first time.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: David Stearns, You're a fucking idiot. It's infuriating. Jets can't
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: open up today. Of course you always get the videos.
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: Everybody's in the best shape of her life. You always
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: get the videos of all the plays that are being
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: made by Bah. Bah practice was not open to the
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: to the public, but you got the Aaron Glenn presser.
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: You know, you got the Geno presser yesterday, a couple
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: other people talking, you know, Minka Fin's trick, Eric Willson.
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: I saw clips of all those. I listened to all
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: of Aaron Glenn's presser.
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: I continue to feel like he's he's an interesting guy
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: as far as the way he deals with the media.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: He's he was a little less surly than he was
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: last season, but surely nonetheless, and he you know, he
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: has these things where like if you ask him something
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: and then you try to like ask him something else,
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: but you kta ask him the same thing in a
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: different way, he gets annoyed by it. I find it
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: got a funny but I just think that yo man again,
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: he thinks gotta go. Well, if you want to deal
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: with the fucking New York press like this, are they
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: gonna be on your ass? He uh, what did he say?
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: He said something about was his thing? Is His constant
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: refrain was, Oh, yeah, it's it's I think it would
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: be unfair to share my message or like my inner
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: thoughts with you guys. You know, I think that's the
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: thing that we should do with the team. I don't
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: even really know what that means, like if they ask you.
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: They asked him like what his goals were this season,
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: So well, that's something that we've definitely communicated with the team.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: But like I was saying before, guys, I kind of
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: think that's unfair for you know, me to share with you.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: You know, that's something that you know I'll keep between
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: me and the team. I don't know why that's unfair
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: to the deem or to himself or whatever. I don't
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: get that, but maybe you know, I get it. He
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: just wants to keep it to himself. He don't want
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: to you know. He's nice, not about he did I
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: one of the things I like he said, he said,
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: no slogans. You know, we're just coming in here good
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: doing the work. I fucking hate the slogans. I was
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: all pumped on Robert Salah. The first thing that gave
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: me pause was when he came in and was like, oh,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: all Gas, no breaks, And I was like, shit, is
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: corner you And now you know you're just all all
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: can't be looking at all gas no breaks? All guys
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: are and everybody's like, nah, man, I'm not gonna start
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm a type of dude. If somebody starts
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: saying to some shit like that because they're trying to
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: like get everybody else to like latch on and start
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: saying it, I'm purposely never going to say it ever.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: That's just me. But uh yeah, man, no slogans. You
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. He's coming in, he's you know,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: he's calling the plays this year, which is interesting because
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: you know, he talks about how it's one of my superpowers,
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: and I, you know, when I see something with our defense,
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: I can make an adjustment so quickly because of how
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: well I know it and bump up.
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: But I really think that what that came down to
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: was what he said, you need to call the place. Okay,
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: that's what that's That's what's happening this year. We're either
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: gonna were either gonna see what you got, see you
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: got some chops, or you're gonna be up out of here.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: I do think that because Woody just got rid of
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: Salah during the year, I don't think he would get
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: rid of Glenn again during the year unless things go
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: a bit really really bad. And you know, the Jets
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: like first six games are brutal. We played the AFC
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: North like games like two through six. I believe something
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: crazy like that, man, Like yeah, man, or maybe the NFC.
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Let me let me pull up the Jets schedule because
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: it's it's kind of brutal in that early part, and
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: you know, I hope that they go and kind of
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: understanding that and realize, like, you know, can't get too
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: crazy with the you know, making rash decisions real early
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: in the season. But again, I don't think what he's
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: gonna do that because of the fact that you know,
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: he did fire solid and a lot of people were
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: surprised with that because he had never done that before,
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: which is fire a coach midseason. But we start off
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: with the Titans. Then we get the Packers. Packers without Micah.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: Packers were zero and five without Micah last year nine
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: to three and one with them. So but we get
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: the Packers, and then we get the Lions, and then
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: we get the Bear. That's a tough one, man. Jets
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: could be I one and four if they got if
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: they came out of that, if they come out of
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: that two and two I'll be stoked. Then they get
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: the Browns and then they got so they have another
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: brutal stretch. I know because I remember, oh yeah, okay,
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: here we go Chiefs, Bills, Chargers, and then you end
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: the season with Patriots Vikings Bills. It's tough. If Jets
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: compete for a playoff spot this year, I'll be ecstatic. Well,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: that means we are moving in the right direction. Faux show,
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: But I think it's a chance it could get ugly,
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: especially with that schedule of looking at it the way
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: that it is now. As we know with the NFL,
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: from year to year, what teams are gonna be dominant,
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: what teams are gonna be pedestrian is something that you
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: you no one can can can really predicted. It's the
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: most parody out of any of the league's there's always
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: a team that you know, gets to the fucking super Bowl,
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: doesn't make the playoffs type shit. That's happened so many times.
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: So we'll see. Nobody thought that the Patriots. Some people
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: thought the Patriots could be a playoff team next year.
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: Nobody thought they were getting to the super Bowl last year.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: So you never know. But I'm excited. I'm starting to
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: get excited. Can't start it. You know, I I'm always
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: the Jets out of everybody. To me, I'm always just like, okay,
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: y'all gotta do something before I get all in the
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: Knicks and the Mets. Historically, by the time the season starts,
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: I figured out a way to convince myself that we
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: got a shot the Jets. Nah, man, I need to
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: see it. I need to see it. And Gino, you know,
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: he has off season shit. Hopefully put that to the side.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: He's that's what he keeps saying. He's moving forward. He
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: addressed it or whatever. Aaron Glenn he got asked. He
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: basically said, like the exact same thing. And you know,
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: Gino has been getting with guys in the off season,
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: getting them together, getting some chemistry and some timing down.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: We had three first round picks, got three three first
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: round picks next next offseason as well next draft as well.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: And uh yeah, man, hey, we'll see, we'll see how
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: how it all comes together. But I am starting to
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: get excited for the Jets. So Mika Fitzpatrick Jersey dude,
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: talking about how he knows like what this fan base
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: can be if you know the Jets are good, if
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: they're doing what they're supposed to do, and how he
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: wants to bring that. He's an older guy who has
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: had a ton of success in his career, borderline Hall
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: of Famer, and I feel like he's a guy who's
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: really looking to show everybody what he can still do.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: And I'm just excited. The defense is the thing that
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: you know, I'm excited the most to see what it
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: can be if Gino can have you know, a couple
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: more touchdowns interceptions, Like as long as there's like his
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: his his ratio isn't crazy. As long as he doesn't
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: lead the league in interceptions like he did a couple
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: of years ago with seventeen. You know, I think the offense,
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: offensive line, everybody's returning. You know, it was a strength
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: of the team last year. The wide receiver get room
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: has gotten better both via draft pick and signings, and
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: you know, I just it's gonna be exciting. It's gonna
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: be exciting. I like, I like the moves that moves
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: he has made. But at the same time, with the Jets,
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: it's always like, man, I'm gonna have to see it.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: Will McDonald looks jacked, then put some size on him.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: I think him and Bailey as a rotation can be
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: strong at the pass rush. Both of those guys. What's
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: gonna be important is we're gonna find out if in
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: an NFL setting they can stand up against the run.
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: And that is a question mark for both. It's been
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: a question mark for Will. But I saw a picture
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: of Will today and he absolutely put on weight and
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: it is muscle. And he's also at that age, especially
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: for a guy who didn't play until later in life.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: I feel like I'm about to sneeze at some point.
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: Excuse me.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: There is.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: Thank you to those of you guys that gave me
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: a bless you. But yeah, man, uh, Will McDonald, you know,
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: played start foot and playing football late in life. If
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: you ever get a chance to watch his one Jets Drive,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: it's absolutely amazing, one hundred pier jerker. If you're ever
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: trying to get your wife into sports, have her watch
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: the one Jets Drive or any one's Jets drive is
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: specifically the one the beginnings about Will McDonald. It's a
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: good one. It's like it's like it's like a lifetime story.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: But yeah, man, we're gonna see with the Jets, and
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting for sure. I'm starting to get excited.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: I'm starting to get into it. I'm starting you know,
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: my my, uh my, my my, My YouTube and Twitter
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: consumption is not one hundred per Nicks. It's ninety eight
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: per Nicks and two percent Jets. But that two percent
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: is a one hundred percent jump from you know, a
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: week and a half ago. Yeah, man, I don't got
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: too much else. Like I said, my got bomb is

• 44:51
  Speaker 1: with Marvin Harrison And the yips. I just for some reason,
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: I just popped into my head. You know, I live
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: in Arizona, so I know a lot of people who
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: are Cardinals fans. I keep seeing these clips of this
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: dude having the ball hit him right in the hands
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: and it popping up in the air and shit. And
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: sometimes it's not even like like sometimes it's like in
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: a practice game setting, and sometimes it's a you know,
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: just you know, in a workout setting. And you know,
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: obviously he had a little bit of issues with drops
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: last year. It seems like it was actually a bigger
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: issue than I knew it was. But this guy was
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: Marvin Harrison junior when he was when he was coming up, which,
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: by the way, they say his his brother is next
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: his younger brother is crazy. But when when he was
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: like in college and shit, I was like, yo, this
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: dude is he's he was like the best, one of
• 45:31
  Speaker 1: the best receiving prospects I've ever seen. I mean, hands,
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: ball skills, route running, physicality, you know, athleticism, everything. And

  Speaker 1: only so many guys you can take that high at
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: the top of the draft and them not not not
