• 2:31
  That you wouldn't have been ready for Chris.
• 2:33
  You're probably right. You're probably definitely
• 2:35
  right. Anyways, we call this the NBA
• 2:39
  Round Table. OK, everybody, let's get to the
• 2:43
  round table. We should just start calling it
• 2:47
  the whipper round table because that's basically what this
• 2:49
  segment is. If you watch our other segments,
• 2:51
  we're going to start off about 5 stories in the NBA.
• 2:56
  Tommy, let's get the sound a little bit down.
• 2:58
  It's a little too loud. Thank you very much.
• 3:01
  If you were watching over the weekend, Denver, you know,
• 3:04
  Denver's been without Aaron Gordon for a while, so they've
• 3:07
  fallen back in the standings a little bit.
• 3:09
  But OKC and Denver had an epic series last year in the Western
• 3:15
  Conference. There's no love lost.
• 3:19
  Well, there was a big fight between Nicola Yokich.
• 3:23
  You know, I would say they're saying right now Shay is
• 3:26
  actually the MVP favorite over yoga.
• 3:28
  They're out of their minds. That's what they're saying.
• 3:30
  They're saying is that historical efficiency season,
• 3:33
  because that's what everybody loves about their MVPS, their
• 3:36
  efficiency. Now Dort is well known to be a
• 3:42
  physical defender and well known to be a little extra legal with
• 3:48
  how he defends. And look, they're the Champs.
• 3:52
  They're taking it on the chin they're from.
• 3:54
  Everybody's getting their best game.
• 3:56
  Dort is fighting back. He was a little too physical
• 3:59
  with Yokich. Yokich jumps up, gets in Dort's
• 4:02
  face. They have to separate them.
• 4:05
  Someone separates Yokich from him.
• 4:07
  He was Jalen Williams and then like Jokic turns and looks at
• 4:11
  Jalen Williams. What a dummy Jalen Williams was
• 4:13
  in that situation. Does he not know about Jokic and
• 4:16
  his brothers? I I do not know if I would be
• 4:19
  that courageous to step in between that.
• 4:22
  But look, Yogesh didn't get ejected.
• 4:25
  They gave Dort A flake to. Pretty wild scene between two
• 4:29
  heated rivals. I want to give a shout out to
• 4:31
  Maxine on our our chat room. She's fantastic.
• 4:34
  Her and Quran, they have great NICs programming and I'm going
• 4:38
  to be working with Quran in the very near future.
• 4:40
  So shout out to Maxine and Quran doing such great stuff with the
• 4:43
  New York Knicks content. But here's the thing, Nicola
• 4:48
  Yokich to me is the MVP of the league.
• 4:50
  I don't, I don't want to hear this Carbage.
• 4:51
  I I think obviously GSA is. I mean, he's been unbelievable.
• 4:57
  He has been as good. Alexander has been great.
• 5:00
  He's been a great player last year.
• 5:02
  Honestly, Alexander, you can argue was the MVP of the league,
• 5:06
  but I don't know if I would say that this year.
• 5:09
  This guy is Nicole Yokich is a triple double machine.
• 5:12
  He's going to finish the season probably with a triple double
• 5:15
  again. Last year he finished the season
• 5:17
  with a triple double. This year is probably going to
• 5:19
  finish the season with triple double.
• 5:21
  How how do you give this to anybody else?
• 5:23
  This guy's the best center in the league by far by a big
• 5:27
  margin. Now, as far as him and Dort and
• 5:30
  and the aggressive nature, this always happens and Nicole
• 5:32
  Yokich, he stands up for his players.
• 5:34
  He comes from a a mean, you know, I mean place over there.
• 5:39
  What's the city is from Serbia, Serbia, Serbia.
• 5:43
  His brothers. Obviously you've heard a little
• 5:45
  bit about his brothers. His brothers are tough, big.
• 5:50
  I think he's the younger brother of his two brothers.
• 5:53
  This guy comes from a very big and and mean family, so we know
• 5:57
  he's going to he's not going to be pushed around by anybody.
• 6:00
  He's not a small guy. He's going to throw his body
• 6:02
  there and Endor, he doesn't play legally defensively, you've seen
• 6:07
  him play. He likes to play under guys.
• 6:09
  He likes to hit you. He like he plays Draymond Green
• 6:11
  type of defense. That's what he plays.
• 6:13
  He plays that type of defense. And unfortunately when you play
• 6:17
  that type of defense, you know guys like Nicole Yokich is going
• 6:20
  to give it to you. He's going to stick it to you.
• 6:22
  He's going to yell at you and he's going to beat you up after
• 6:24
  that. I, I love it.
• 6:25
  I love this game of basketball when it's aggressive nature.
• 6:29
  I, I think that really the new style of basketball hasn't been
• 6:34
  this way. I want to see more of this.
• 6:36
  I want to see more pushing and shoving.
• 6:38
  That's why I, I, I love Dante Diva Chancellor.
• 6:40
  I like what he brings to the table.
• 6:42
  I like that mean streak. That's what you like, The old
• 6:45
  New York Knicks. I love the old Pistons.
• 6:48
  I love those teams. I want to see more of that.
• 6:50
  So I love it. I absolutely love the fighting
• 6:53
  and the pushing. Yeah, that's the hunter.
• 6:55
  Definitely play with the defensive intensity you need to
• 6:57
  be able to do well. They've been #1 all season for a
• 6:59
  while. It was a historically good
• 7:01
  defense the way they were. Defensive efficiency right now.
• 7:03
  And they have a lot of guys that could do that, including Dort.
• 7:05
  But at the same time, you do want to instigate somebody like
• 7:07
  Nicole Yokers. This was a team in the Nuggets
• 7:09
  that did take you in the playoffs last year to seven
• 7:11
  games, like when you coached it pretty much the rest of the
• 7:13
  playoffs. OK, I see.
• 7:14
  Won a championship. That was the one thing I know
• 7:16
  you blew out in game seven. Fine, but that's a guy you don't
• 7:19
  want to mess with in Nicola Yokich.
• 7:20
  And yeah, obviously the the 65 game rule, that's going to be
• 7:23
  the mark he can play the rest of the year.
• 7:25
  He'll get the MVP because he should.
• 7:27
  You're right, I agree. Alexander I, I, I understand
• 7:30
  Alexander needs to win an MVP, he deserves it.
• 7:32
  But this year there's no way in hell you're giving Alexander the
• 7:37
  MVP. After what Nicola Yokich is
• 7:40
  doing right now with the Nuggets, who's the number two
• 7:42
  option on that roster? Who's the?
• 7:45
  Number Murray Murray's still there, but they have No 3
• 7:48
  without Aaron Gordon. Here's the thing everybody keeps
• 7:51
  talking about Jamal Murray. Jamal Murray is not the same
• 7:53
  Jamal Murray since he's come back from his injury.
• 7:55
  This is not the same dominant point guard that was playing at
• 7:58
  a top level in the playoffs. Jamal Murray is a secondary
• 8:01
  point guard on this roster. What's he averaging right now?
• 8:03
  18 points, I mean, that's your second option.
• 8:06
  Nicola Yokich is giving you a triple double every single game
• 8:10
  and the Nuggets are winning their top five team.
• 8:13
  In the US, he's at 25. Errol, he's killing it.
• 8:15
  He's at 25 points because it's just the two of them and Yokich
• 8:19
  is finding him for the easiest shots anyone gets.
• 8:22
  He's got 25 points a game in the regular season in 35 minutes.
• 8:27
  He's been healthy and he's shooting 42%.
• 8:30
  So Murray's been killing it this year.
• 8:32
  It's his first year healthy. I would say since that, before
• 8:37
  that Olympic run, he was kind of like wore himself done down a
• 8:40
  little. Bit I haven't been watching them
• 8:42
  a lot tonight. I mean, not tonight this year,
• 8:45
  but I, I, I just see Jamal Murray, he can't stay healthy.
• 8:49
  He has knee problems every other year.
• 8:51
  He can't stay fully, you know, at at at a top level.
• 8:54
  Yes, he's averaging 25 points, 4 rebounds per game and seven
• 8:57
  assists. So he is having a pretty good
• 8:59
  season, but he's got to do that consistently and he has got to
• 9:02
  do it in the playoffs. I don't know if I'm going to bet
• 9:04
  on that. And this is a team that depended
• 9:06
  on Michael Porter to be that third option and they don't have
• 9:08
  it. So it's going to be very, very
• 9:10
  hard to compete with. OK C but OK C again, we got to
• 9:14
  see if they can do it back-to-back years.
• 9:16
  And, and again, Houston Rockets are a dangerous, dangerous team,
• 9:20
  and so are the Spurs. Yeah.
• 9:21
  And again, this is the one team that took them pretty far in the
• 9:23
  playoffs. Where they dominated the
• 9:25
  Timberwolves in five games, they dominate.
• 9:27
  I forget they played in the first round.
• 9:28
  I think they swept them and the Nuggets.
• 9:30
  They have another good young player to a Peyton Watson to
• 9:33
  coming off the bench and he's might I don't know if he's six
• 9:35
  man of the year compared to Pritchard, but he's.
• 9:36
  He's not the six. Man, Yeah, and then fish.
• 9:40
  You were talking about Aaron Gordon, too.
• 9:41
  If he comes back healthy, that could definitely put a different
• 9:43
  dimension. I'm very surprised.
• 9:45
  I'm looking at the numbers. Jamal Murray is having a good
• 9:47
  year, but I I don't bet on him to stay healthy for the rest of
• 9:50
  the season. The Cam Johnson's giving him
• 9:51
  nothing. That's the problem.
• 9:53
  Like he's he's got 11 points for them.
• 9:54
  They were expecting more as him. Why?
• 9:57
  I mean Cam. I never thought Cam Johnson was
• 9:59
  any good. I.
• 10:01
  Never 20 points a game two years ago.
• 10:03
  Yeah, I don't believe in Cam Johnson.
• 10:05
  Who did he play for? Phoenix.
• 10:07
  He was pretty good off the bench with Phoenix and then it was
• 10:09
  with the Nets and the Durant. Yeah, please.
• 10:11
  He played for the Nets. That's why he got 20 points per
• 10:13
  game. Well, I I agree.
• 10:15
  I didn't think he would be. This Michael Porter's averaging,
• 10:17
  what, 24 points a game right now?
• 10:19
  Because he's the number one option right now for the Nets.
• 10:21
  Anybody get that again? They might, they might take that
• 10:23
  trade back. I don't think they would rather
• 10:25
  have. I think they'd probably rather
• 10:27
  have. Look what the Nets did to
• 10:28
  Thomas. Look what they said.
• 10:30
  They decided to par ways with him.
• 10:32
  And this guy had, he was averaging, what, 2627 points
• 10:35
  when he was the number one option the year before.
• 10:37
  So, I mean, anybody could score, Yeah.
• 10:40
  When you're scored, when you're shooting 30 or 35 shots a game,
• 10:44
  you're going to score 30 points. It's just the facts, especially
• 10:47
  if you're in the NBA. So I don't know if that's
• 10:49
  something to brag about. That Cam Johnson averaged 20
• 10:51
  points per game. Well, I'm not bragging.
• 10:54
  I'm just saying I'm a little surprised Dort's like Tony Allen
• 10:57
  if he could shoot like that's, that's who he is.
• 11:00
  He's just like in your face. But he also has a shot, you
• 11:03
  know, and Tony Allen did not have.
• 11:05
  A shot. I loved in your face.
• 11:06
  Tony Allen, I loved him. He was on the Grizzlies, right?
• 11:10
  Coney Allen was on the Grizzlies.
• 11:11
  Grizzlies and then those Celtics championship teams.
• 11:13
  Yeah, but Tony Allen could really get under you.
• 11:16
  You can really pressure you. You made you make mistakes.
• 11:20
  I wouldn't say Tony Allen Dort, because Tony Allen really
• 11:22
  didn't. He used his body.
• 11:24
  Dort uses his hands and gets away with it.
• 11:27
  He like, he pushes you, you know, somebody like Tony Allen,
• 11:31
  he got under you and he used his body and he made sure that every
• 11:35
  time you were trying to move side to side or laterally, he
• 11:38
  was going to stick you and he was going to get that hand in.
• 11:41
  And he's not going to let you dribble the ball.
• 11:42
  He's not going to let you crossover on him.
• 11:44
  They're different players, but I understand what you're saying.
• 11:46
  All right, the next story I wanted to bring up is something
• 11:50
  that's surprising to a lot of us because Cooper Flag, you know,
• 11:54
  obviously, coming into the league as the undisputed #1
• 11:58
  pick, his teammate Kon Kanupal went fourth in the draft.
• 12:02
  A lot of people thought that was pretty high and that might have
• 12:05
  been like the rub from, you know, Flag being his teammate
• 12:09
  that he gets to go so high in the draft.
• 12:11
  Well right now Kanupal has already broken the rookie 3.3
• 12:17
  pointers made in one rookie season record.
• 12:19
  He has that record in 59 games. He eclipsed that mark.
• 12:23
  He has also overtaken flag in the Vegas odds for Rookie of the
• 12:28
  Year. So let me give you the Rookie of
• 12:30
  the Year odds right now for Cooper Flag.
• 12:34
  And Cooper Flag was the favorite most of the season, but now he's
• 12:38
  at around plus 125 + 140. Canupel is at -160 to -170 You
• 12:46
  can get him right now as rookie of the year.
• 12:48
  That's like 3:00 to 2:00, almost a little better than three to
• 12:52
  two for for Canoople to be the rookie of the year.
• 12:55
  I do not believe Khan Canoople is going to win Rookie of the
• 12:58
  year. I know he has the three-point
• 12:59
  record. He's having a great year.
• 13:01
  I love Khan and I thought with the dominant player that he was
• 13:05
  in the tournament and with Cooper Flag going into the final
• 13:08
  four, I thought they were going to be in the national champion
• 13:11
  and they choked because we all know who the head coach is.
• 13:13
  But here's the facts and we understand what the facts are.
• 13:16
  Cock Canoe Bull is having that 3 point ability in the NBA.
• 13:21
  We understand what type of player he is.
• 13:22
  We understand how much his teammates love him.
• 13:24
  The Hornets he's become really the number one option over a
• 13:27
  Lamello Ball who has been the number one option over there
• 13:30
  with that organization. And now you're seeing that that
• 13:33
  that personality come out. You see him after the games when
• 13:37
  that when the coaches you know the coach speaks to the team and
• 13:41
  he goes out there and he's he calls him the hive.
• 13:44
  That's what they call him when they go 123 hive.
• 13:46
  I I love who Khan Kanuppal is. I love what he stands for he's
• 13:50
  from the that Duke blue devil team.
• 13:52
  He loves that that gritty coach K type of style and he he he's a
• 13:56
  great player. He really is I love his
• 13:58
  personality, but Cooper flag he's having a sensational year.
• 14:01
  He's playing on a bad Mavericks team.
• 14:03
  The the numbers that he's putting up are sensational.
• 14:05
  There is no way the voters are going to take Con Canupal over
• 14:08
  Cooper flag. Cooper flag right now is is
• 14:10
  averaging 1.1 more point over Con Canupal.
• 14:14
  He's doing as well as Khan is. Obviously Khan is in a playoff
• 14:18
  spot because Khan is in the East and Cooper is in the West.
• 14:22
  And what did The Mavericks do? They traded off all the pieces
• 14:25
  and they just said that Kyrie Irving's out for the season.
• 14:27
  He has got nothing. It's all Cooper Flag and he's
• 14:30
  playing the point. He's playing a point forward
• 14:32
  right now. He's asked to do more than con
• 14:35
  Canoople. So I disagree.
• 14:37
  I think Cooper Flag is by far the best rookie this year.
• 14:40
  And I don't even think it's an argument.
• 14:42
  And whatever Vegas is saying, they're going to be wrong.
• 14:45
  If you're a betting man right now, you take Cooper Flag
• 14:48
  winning the Rookie of the Year. Yeah, it's recency bias because
• 14:51
  the Hornets were hot and they've been, I think, since the
• 14:53
  calendar year turned one of the best teams in the East and hence
• 14:56
  they're in the last play in spot.
• 14:58
  But it just shows the problem with the fact that the NBA
• 15:00
  playoffs is already so large, isn't it?
• 15:01
  Is they're having these teams with losing records getting into
• 15:04
  the playoffs. Now, I'm not saying obviously,
• 15:06
  that the Hornets obviously are a bad team compared to their
• 15:09
  expectations, but they're still not a great team.
• 15:11
  In The Mavericks, we knew their expectations were gonna be very
• 15:13
  high because they made the worst.
• 15:14
  Trade. Here's the problem and then this
• 15:15
  is the argument here is the NBA has this love fest for the three
• 15:19
  pointer. They love it and this guy broke
• 15:21
  the rookie record and Steph Curry doesn't have the rookie
• 15:24
  record. Klay Thompson doesn't have the
• 15:25
  rookie record. Ray Allen doesn't have the
• 15:27
  rookie record. It's Con Canoople.
• 15:30
  So what are they doing automatically?
• 15:32
  He shoots up there as the rookie of the year.
• 15:35
  I don't get it. I I understand that he is a
• 15:38
  better three-point shooter than Cooper flag, but every other
• 15:40
  part of his game is not better than Cooper flag.
• 15:43
  Cooper flag is a better player. How could you automatically say
• 15:47
  how could obviously Vegas pick Con Canoople right now as the
• 15:52
  favorite to coming out as rookie?
• 15:53
  The I don't, I don't. I mean, I know Canoople has also
• 15:56
  done well with the rebounds, more than you would expect for a
• 15:58
  guy that's supposed to be a three-point specialist but
• 16:00
  flagged us. So more like you said, he's not
• 16:01
  playing his natural position and he's playing on a, in a Western
• 16:03
  Conference that's harder. And their division itself, I
• 16:05
  know we don't talk about divisions in the NBA that much.
• 16:07
  They're playing in the same division with OK C, the Rockets
• 16:10
  and the Spurs. So the the take is why
• 16:13
  Canoople's ahead the wind shares stat speedy.
• 16:17
  A lot of it's dependent on how much your team wins right?
• 16:20
  But Canuple's worth double the win shares this year as Cooper
• 16:26
  flag it's 6 almost 66.1 to 3.2. He's got a .5 lead in PER, which
• 16:32
  is an advanced metric. But you're right if Flag clearly
• 16:36
  has better, you know regular counting stats except 30% from
• 16:41
  three for flag 44% yes, and much higher volume.
• 16:47
  Yes, and he's getting better shots and easier shots because
• 16:50
  he's playing on a better team. You are the only guy on your
• 16:53
  roster. You're playing out of position
• 16:56
  right now because you have no guard play.
• 16:58
  You got none. So how could you give Khan
• 17:01
  Kanupal the rookie of the year? You give it to the guy that's.
• 17:05
  Playing out of position, you know, like 44, like there's a
• 17:08
  like like 10 guys that have like done that, you know, like.
• 17:12
  How open is? He crazy.
• 17:13
  How open is he when he's shooting these three?
• 17:15
  He's pretty open. I mean, they're spreading the
• 17:17
  ball. They have a better team.
• 17:18
  You got a point guard like Lamelo Ball.
• 17:20
  Stop. Cooper Flag, that's the point.
• 17:23
  That is a good point. He doesn't have to create it as
• 17:25
  much as Cooper Flag has to create it.
• 17:27
  So we'll see how it goes down. I think you're probably right.
• 17:30
  The voters won't pick Canoople over Flag, but it's surprising
• 17:34
  it's even a discussion. I don't think it's surprising at
• 17:36
  all. Well, I expected.
• 17:37
  I think Konkanupal is a special. For him to be the number two guy
• 17:41
  or number one guy. Duty was the number.
• 17:43
  Duty was #4 in the draft, he was drafted at 4:00, so he was
• 17:47
  expected to be a top five talent.
• 17:49
  Yeah, I expected Konkanupal to be there.
• 17:52
  I wasn't surprised that Konkanupal was having to get a
• 17:54
  season that he's having right now because I saw him do it all
• 17:58
  season long with Duke last year, and he should have done it in
• 18:01
  the most important game against Houston.
• 18:03
  But John Shire screwed up, as he always does at the tail end of
• 18:08
  games. Thank you, John for letting me
• 18:10
  take you out in this this segment.
• 18:12
  Only Nico Harris, who was still the GM of The Mavericks.
• 18:14
  Maybe he would have been done enough to fire Jason Kidd to
• 18:16
  hire John Shire as their. Head, I think Nico Harris would
• 18:18
  be stupid enough to give John Shire A5 year extension like we
• 18:22
  just got. Thank you Coach K for giving him
• 18:24
  all these, all these great players.
• 18:27
  Thank you. All right, let's move on to not
• 18:30
  a rookie, a cagey veteran who's definitely going to go in the
• 18:34
  Hall of Fame. James Harden.
• 18:36
  He has a fractured thumb, but he's playing anyway.
• 18:40
  He returned in a Cavs win against the his, you know, hated
• 18:45
  former team, the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday.
• 18:49
  So. Much.
• 18:52
  Give me a break. The pain was so much he put up.
• 18:57
  It looks like he put up 20229 and eight in the game.
• 19:01
  The. Pain was extraordinary. 4
• 19:04
  threes. 22 points easy. Give me a well.
• 19:08
  Look, he he fractured the distal phalanx of his right.
• 19:13
  Thumb. Oh, I'm sorry.
• 19:14
  His phalanx. What the hell is that?
• 19:17
  Give me a break. I, I distal's probably back, I
• 19:21
  say it's probably back here somewhere, so.
• 19:23
  I bet you the interns know more about a phalanx than I do.
• 19:26
  I I mean well. Still go Phalanx was the.
• 19:29
  Phalanx. I'm sorry, the phalanx.
• 19:31
  Phalanx is what the Spartans did.
• 19:34
  You know, to defeat everybody. Yeah, it sounds like a piece of
• 19:36
  meat. You know, a phalanx something
• 19:38
  the end of the meet. You know, so so we're saying
• 19:40
  Omaha steak should go sell Phalanx isn't?
• 19:42
  There you go. Name one of their meats.
• 19:44
  Phalanx. Yeah, Harden Phalanx.
• 19:47
  Cleveland trades for Harden. It's like they were missing
• 19:51
  something. More like hard on.
• 19:54
  That's a strict call identity. That's true.
• 19:58
  Different story. About strip clubs that went
• 20:00
  around and Oh my God, there was some players like we shouldn't
• 20:04
  have strip clubs anymore. But was that?
• 20:06
  That's definitely not John. Morant.
• 20:08
  I think it was Luke Cornett, which doesn't surprise me, but
• 20:13
  anyway, I didn't pick that one for dial it up.
• 20:16
  Sorry guys, but James Harden obviously is going to take this
• 20:21
  team to slightly different place than they were.
• 20:23
  You know he's going to be able to get it takes some of the
• 20:25
  pressure off of Donovan Mitchell as a primary.
• 20:28
  Boy or girls in scoops? He doesn't have to be a primary
• 20:32
  ball handler. Thumb up my ass.
• 20:34
  He can use that, although there will be plenty of, I guess, ball
• 20:38
  handling. That was the one I was trying to
• 20:40
  press, by the way, everybody. I was giving you more chances.
• 20:43
  I was trying, I was trying, I got up.
• 20:45
  I mean, I'm listen guys, I'm I'm trying, we move the, we move the
• 20:50
  video feed and I'm trying to figure out my position and it's
• 20:54
  just, it's tough tonight. It's tough trying to get in
• 20:57
  there. So, So what my question to you
• 20:58
  is how much is this really going to impact this Cavs team for the
• 21:03
  rest of the season? And is it going to?
• 21:05
  Squeeze them to be. Well, here's what I'm going to
• 21:09
  say. It's not going to make a big
• 21:10
  difference. I don't think it's going to
• 21:12
  affect James Harden. As we've seen right there.
• 21:15
  They're still winning. They're still finding a ways to
• 21:17
  win. They've got great offensive guys
• 21:20
  on this team, great rebounders. This is a great offensive
• 21:23
  rebounding team. I don't think there's any
• 21:25
  complaints, and they have one of the best sports coach minds in
• 21:29
  all of basketball and all of sports in Kenny Atkinson.
• 21:32
  The guy knows how to coach defense.
• 21:34
  He knows how to coach offense. I don't think it's going to be a
• 21:36
  big problem. James Harden hurting his
• 21:38
  failings. What the hell?
• 21:41
  Stop complaining. Stop bitching.
• 21:42
  It's so stupid. James Harden, as long as he's
• 21:46
  ready for the playoffs, which he will be, and hopefully he plays
• 21:49
  at a top level, I think the Cavaliers are going to create a
• 21:52
  scare for some of these teams like the Knicks, like the
• 21:54
  Celtics, like the Detroit Pistons.
• 21:57
  Expect these four or five teams to be competitive and get ready
• 22:01
  for the playoffs because you're going to see very professional,
• 22:05
  great basketball in the Eastern Conference this year.
• 22:08
  I think it's going to be fun to watch and we're going to see
• 22:10
  there's no Halliburton, there's no Indiana.
• 22:12
  They could have Kamboozer next year, which is going to make me
• 22:14
  sick to my stomach. So yeah, all that and more.
• 22:18
  Thumb, phalanx, Slalinx, gay links, it doesn't matter.
• 22:23
  Who cares? I could care less.
• 22:25
  The Cavaliers will be fine. Yeah, the Cavaliers are just
• 22:27
  gonna have to hope for the JA jinx for not to happen, which is
• 22:30
  James Harden in the playoffs just being an absolute debacle.
• 22:33
  Like you said before, he's gonna have a smaller role like I we
• 22:35
  were talking about like Harden coming off the bench of with
• 22:37
  LeBron when? We circled.
• 22:39
  Last week, like that's the idea that it should have Harden
• 22:42
  should be like a fourth option. And I think you saw the Sixers
• 22:44
  try to do that sometimes when they had him, but not enough
• 22:47
  where I don't think it was good enough for winning.
• 22:49
  The Cavs are much more talented than the Sixers.
• 22:51
  Do all right, we'll see how that goes.
• 22:52
  I still am very dubious of anyone that brings in a guy like
• 22:56
  that late season thinking that they're going to make.
• 22:58
  A my phalanx. It's hurting me well.
• 23:02
  We're going to move from Phalanx's Errol to Tyler Bone,
• 23:07
  stresses how was Yeah, this is what's going on with Zach Edie.
• 23:12
  Zach Edie missed, had a really good rookie season and then
• 23:16
  missed at the end of this season with an injury.
• 23:19
  He's only played eleven games this year.
• 23:22
  He's now out for the season. This is a guy that's real big
• 23:27
  with bad feet already, and that's a problem.
• 23:30
  Joel Embiid missing another three games, a little, a little
• 23:35
  oblique, little, you know, take a little, take it easy into the
• 23:39
  playoffs. It's kind of remarkable with
• 23:41
  Maxi and Edgecomb really coming on have done make you kind of
• 23:45
  forget about MB to an extent with all this.
• 23:49
  The fact that they're still playing pretty well and then
• 23:52
  Steph Curry, that knee is not getting better.
• 23:54
  This this is kind of like a being kept quiet.
• 23:58
  He's out at least another five games if his knee is not.
• 24:03
  Not even like 80% that they got nothing at all.
• 24:06
  I will say this, if I was a young athlete, I want to play
• 24:12
  basketball because think about it, Joel Embiid, who barely even
• 24:16
  plays, he's making $50 million a year and he doesn't even have to
• 24:19
  step on a basketball court. Paul George can't stay healthy.
• 24:22
  He's making what, 50 million, $50 million a year?
• 24:25
  Doesn't even have to play on a basketball court, and they play
• 24:26
  for the same organization. Please.
• 24:29
  As far as the Ed thing, we knew this was going to happen when he
• 24:32
  came from Purdue. He played in the national
• 24:34
  championship. He was a guy that some people
• 24:37
  question coming out of the draft.
• 24:39
  Some people thought he was a second round talent.
• 24:41
  I didn't. I thought he had a good game.
• 24:43
  He has a good basketball game. He has good footwork for a big
• 24:46
  man, but he's had bad feet. He has a lot of weight on his
• 24:50
  feet. When he was coming into the NBA,
• 24:51
  they said he needed to lose weight.
• 24:53
  It was going to be a big problem if he didn't keep that weight
• 24:56
  off him. And it's been a big problem
• 24:58
  since he's come into the league. And as far as Steph Curry is
• 25:00
  concerned, Steph Curry is older now.
• 25:03
  He's not healing as fast. He's had ankle problems when he
• 25:05
  came into the league and he was out for a significant amount of
• 25:08
  time in his first three years. Maybe Steph Curry has better
• 25:12
  numbers than he has if he actually played his first three
• 25:14
  years healthy. So I'm not surprised.
• 25:17
  Steph Curry's at the tail end. He's on a back 18.
• 25:20
  We said this already. I don't know how much time Steph
• 25:23
  Curry has left in the NBA and I think he'll be a very good
• 25:26
  coach. I really do.
• 25:28
  If he wants to coach in the NBA or he wants to do something as
• 25:31
  an executive in the future like LeBron James, I think he'd be
• 25:34
  very, very good. But I think I expect him to play
• 25:37
  at least a year, maybe another I, I just don't know how healthy
• 25:41
  he's going to be for those years so.
• 25:43
  Now you're Steph Curry is somebody that you have to look
• 25:45
  at with minor injuries. I think at this point you hope
• 25:48
  it's nothing major and I think the Warriors done a good job at
• 25:50
  making sure that doesn't happen. But with them beat, it's a
• 25:53
  different case. He's had too many major injuries
• 25:54
  that it's going to pile up eventually.
• 25:56
  Think about this. You have 100 and like $15
• 25:59
  million in these two players. Think about it and both guys are
• 26:04
  not playing right now. One guy's suspended, Yep, and
• 26:07
  the other guy can't stay healthy and he doesn't want to play
• 26:10
  back-to-back games because he's a bitch.
• 26:11
  Oh yeah, that. Oh, that wasn't that.
• 26:13
  You're right. That was a fun story we had last
• 26:15
  year too. Joel Embiid being the softest
• 26:17
  guy that's 7 foot in NBA history pretty much at this.
• 26:20
  Rate. He's a crybaby, yeah.
• 26:21
  In addition to that, he's a hypocrite and oh, I'm the most
• 26:24
  hated player in the NBA. It's like, whatever that story.
• 26:26
  Yeah, that was fun. I think that's a crock.
• 26:29
  I mean, yeah. I mean, Brooks is a hated
• 26:31
  player. Draymond Green's a hated.
• 26:33
  Good player. I have never heard anybody in
• 26:36
  the last three years say that Joel Embiid is the most hated
• 26:39
  player in the. NBA.
• 26:40
  No, no, this was his own. Claim.
• 26:41
  I know, I'm just saying. I mean, people don't like Joel
• 26:44
  Embiid. If you asked anybody, they would
• 26:46
  probably say I hate the guy. I mean, I know half the Knicks
• 26:49
  hate him because of what he did in the playoffs.
• 26:51
  Intentionally hurt Mitchell Robinson in the playoffs a
• 26:53
  couple years ago. But whatever, screw that guy.
• 26:56
  He's hurt. He's not even.
• 26:58
  He's like an afterthought on his own team now because of the
• 27:01
  youngsters really taking over. It's going to be weird how that
• 27:03
  goes going forwards. One last story, this one was
• 27:07
  really strange. I don't know if you've been
• 27:09
  paying attention to it, but you know, Porzingis was traded to
• 27:15
  the Warriors earlier this year and it hasn't gone well.
• 27:20
  He isn't able to play, so he's going to miss his fourth
• 27:23
  consecutive game with a general illness.
• 27:27
  Now, it was thought that he had something called POTS, which is
• 27:32
  postural orthostatic tachycardia, tachycardia
• 27:36
  syndrome. Cardia means heart.
• 27:38
  So it's scary whenever you know that.
• 27:40
  I don't know anything about it, but apparently Kerr said
• 27:43
  something. He had to walk it back.
• 27:45
  He's like, it's actually not POTS.
• 27:47
  They can't reveal what the condition is.
• 27:50
  But I mean, I mean, Steph Curry, he's got runner's knee or Zingis
• 27:55
  can't play with, you know, I mean some alien virus who even
• 28:01
  knows what it is, you know, like something from.
• 28:05
  Short Draymond Green didn't give these guys viruses.
• 28:07
  He might have. But it just seems like Steve
• 28:12
  Kerr maybe should have like packed it in before this.
• 28:14
  Year I said that. You're from hell bro.
• 28:17
  I've been saying that. I've been saying that he should
• 28:19
  have just walked away. He had a chance to walk.
• 28:22
  Look, the GM walked. Now he's running what?
• 28:25
  How many? Or he's running an organization.
• 28:27
  He's running a football organization.
• 28:28
  I think he's. Running the Washington,
• 28:30
  Washington Commanders. He leaves ESPN to run a football
• 28:34
  organization. I mean, Myers is is looking like
• 28:37
  gold. He leaves at the perfect time
• 28:40
  for the Golden State Warriors. Steve Kerr, all he had to do was
• 28:43
  walk away after they won that championship against the
• 28:45
  Celtics. He was done.
• 28:46
  He did what he was supposed to do without Kevin Durant a second
• 28:49
  time. And what did he do?
• 28:52
  You know what? Yeah, I could play.
• 28:54
  I could coach another couple of years.
• 28:56
  I got Steph. I got Draymond.
• 28:58
  These guys are washed up. The poor Zingis thing.
• 29:01
  We knew this was going to happen.
• 29:03
  He was a Nick. This guy could not stay healthy
• 29:05
  with the Knicks. He couldn't stay healthy with
• 29:07
  Dallas. He couldn't stay healthy with
• 29:09
  the Celtics. And now he can't stay healthy
• 29:11
  with you know who, the Golden State Warriors.
• 29:14
  This guy's career is pretty much over.
• 29:16
  The Unicorn is uniless. So goodbye, farewell.
• 29:20
  And by the way, the Golden State Warriors look like a bunch of
• 29:22
  jackasses. Yeah, it's always the rest you
• 29:24
  have running for a training for a guy like this.
• 29:26
  Obviously he was able to stay healthy with the first year with
• 29:28
  the Celtics when they won the championship.
• 29:29
  But think about the impact that the Celtics had when they lost
• 29:31
  him last year. Like the Knicks were able to
• 29:33
  expose him, dominate him inside. And now Golden State, we they
• 29:35
  traded for him because they had no inside presence.
• 29:37
  I know Al Horford's gone over there and played well, but he's
• 29:39
  42 years old. You're not going to expect him
• 29:40
  to have to do. Everything I would love.
• 29:42
  To hear what Kevin Durant is giving him a nickname now of, I
• 29:45
  mean, seriously, he called him the Unicorn.
• 29:48
  I would love to hear what Kevin Durant has to say on his, what,
• 29:51
  10 Twitter accounts? Oh yeah.
• 29:52
  Please. Maybe.
• 29:55
  Maybe he's more deserving of that nickname than Travis Hunter
• 29:58
  tried to give himself that nickname.
• 29:59
  But Unicorn? Unicorn.
• 30:02
  Do you know what a Unicorn is? By the way, my favorite animal,
• 30:05
  Travis Hunter, has no Unicorn. He's a gremlin.
• 30:07
  OK, let's stop with this crap. There's Unicorn crap.
• 30:11
  There's you want to call LeBron James a Unicorn?
• 30:14
  LeBron James a Unicorn? I mean, look what he's done at
• 30:17
  the at his position. Michael Jordan was a Unicorn.
• 30:19
  Michael Jordan changed the position.
• 30:21
  Magic Johnson's a Unicorn. He changed the position.
• 30:24
  Stop with this, This poor Zingis.
• 30:26
  What did he change? Norton here's a Unicorn.
• 30:30
  Jokic, that's a Unicorn. He changed the center position.
• 30:34
  You want to talk about a Unicorn?
• 30:36
  That's a Unicorn. Yeah, except he'll still
• 30:38
  reference it himself. As for Zingis as his horses,
• 30:41
  he's. Nothing, but he's nothing but a
• 30:42
  horse's ass. Yes, that's that's a better
• 30:44
  analogy. Nicole Jokic could just
• 30:46
  reference his horses as unicorns, and he'll send some
• 30:48
  horses after Luge Dort along with his brother and the mob.
• 30:51
  All right, well, that is the NBA round table.
• 30:56
  We will probably get back to some news in a couple of weeks
• 30:59
  as we head towards the playoffs. You know what?
• 31:02
  I get a little bit thrown off because I listen to James Harden
• 31:05
  and and Bead. These are guys that I'm not big
• 31:07
  fans of. I'm really not.
• 31:09
  And I knew you were going to bring them up in this
• 31:12
  conversation because you know, I can't stand them.
• 31:14
  But thank God you didn't bring up Draymond Green because this
• 31:19
  guy, and I will say this for all the fans that don't follow
• 31:22
  Draymond Crean on social media and his stupid podcast, this guy
• 31:27
  just wants clicks. He wants clicks and it goes out
• 31:31
  there. He throws his teammates under
• 31:33
  the bus, he attacks the New York like, like, do we want to hear
• 31:37
  your take on the New York Knicks?
• 31:38
  I could give a crap. And then he has an ex Nick on
• 31:41
  his show all the time and I don't want to hear his take.
• 31:45
  I really don't. And it's embarrassing because a
• 31:49
  guy that really doesn't pay attention to anything but but
• 31:52
  his team, the Golden State Warriors and probably the
• 31:54
  Western Conference, he goes out and he says stuff and he brings
• 31:57
  up teams that he doesn't like, kind of like Charles Barkley,
• 32:01
  who always has something to say about the New York Knicks and it
• 32:03
  just. Turns you off.
• 32:05
  On any of the content that he has to provide or puts out there
• 32:08
  that you want to listen to. Draymond, do me a favor.
• 32:11
  Don't talk about anything but your own garbage.
• 32:15
  I could care less because to me, the any anytime you have
• 32:19
  anything good to say, it's about the Golden State Warriors.
• 32:22
  Why don't we talk about the problem that you had with Paul?
• 32:24
  Why don't we talk about the problem you have with Klay
• 32:26
  Thompson? Why don't we talk about you have
• 32:28
  the problem with the Steve Kerr situation?
• 32:30
  Everybody you have the problems with.
• 32:32
  You don't have a problem with Steph Curry or do you?
• 32:35
  Maybe there's something behind it.
• 32:36
  Maybe that's why Steph Curry doesn't want to come back
• 32:38
  because he don't want to play with Draymond Green.
• 32:40
  And this could be Draymond Green's last year with the, the,
• 32:42
  the Golden State Warriors Sayonara, as we all say.
• 32:45
  So that's my take on the whole Draymond Green take.
• 32:48
  That's it. I had to add that because I
• 32:50
  just, every time I pop on his stuff on YouTube and, and for,
• 32:55
  for some reason, YouTube is, is for all the athletes.
• 32:58
  If, if you're, if you're an athlete, you're, you're
• 33:01
  probably, if you're a big known athlete, your channel is going
• 33:04
  to do very, very well on YouTube because everybody is going to
• 33:06
  follow you. Oh, it's Steve Smith or, oh,
• 33:08
  it's Travis Hunter or, or oh, it's Draymond Green.
• 33:12
  And I, I want to listen to what he has to say.
• 33:14
  Why? Because he's an idiot.
• 33:15
  He's a Jackass. LeBron James so I I could see
• 33:19
  why YouTube is booming right now and you're in the algorithm
• 33:23
  because, you know, Draymond Green has nothing good to say
• 33:25
  and everything bad to say about everybody else.
• 33:27
  So that's my take. All right.
• 33:29
  Tic tac toe Tick. Tick Morris.
• 33:32
  Right in the butt we get the prizes cheat because they're
• 33:37
  stolen. No, no, no, no, no, no.
• 33:47
  Oh, and the speedster dancing around in the background, as he
• 33:50
  always does. I mean, it's one of the ugliest
• 33:53
  dances we'll ever see, ladies and gentlemen.
• 33:54
  But you get to see my bareback head.
• 33:57
  I mean my bareback head. I like that.
• 34:00
  Now, does nothing have a bare backdrop?
• 34:02
  I thought he did. No, I think you have.
• 34:04
  A big was. I'm pretty sure either you were.
• 34:06
  Name Chroma. Chroma.
• 34:09
  Ass liquor, I got to add. I got to add that for you.
• 34:11
  I mean that definitely. Fits the whole let's.
• 34:13
  Bring the interns in for this one.
• 34:16
  Yes, let's get the guys in. That should be fun here.
• 34:21
  Let's go like that. Speedy.
• 34:24
  We got Tic Tac. No, you were victorious last
• 34:26
  time we played. It's time for us to get our
• 34:29
  revenge. Yeah, we had a we had two shows
• 34:31
  in a row because we had to scratch King of the Hill last
• 34:34
  week. You dominated the time before
• 34:36
  that. We'll start with that UConn
• 34:38
  women's basketball team that you mentioned.
• 34:41
  They have been undefeated in the regular season a lot, 6 times in
• 34:44
  that in this century. There's only been two other
• 34:46
  women's basketball teams that have finished a regular season
• 34:48
  undefeated this century. Name of those two teams?
• 34:51
  You guys get multiple guesses. Baylor.
• 34:53
  Baylor was one of them. Yes, that was correct.
• 34:56
  Women's. Right.
• 34:57
  Women's basketball, yes. Was the other one not South
• 34:59
  Carolina? South Carolina.
• 35:01
  There we go, right there we go. Ballard, South Carolina.
• 35:04
  There we go, all. Right, you guys got that one
• 35:06
  very. Sweet, that was, that was the
• 35:08
  little. Easy.
• 35:09
  I was going to say, it was kind of easy there.
• 35:10
  Come on now. I'm not.
• 35:13
  All right, let's let's put this one up and we'll put Tommy and
• 35:19
  Errol in the this just. Put Tommy.
• 35:22
  You don't have to put us both, just put Tommy.
• 35:24
  I can countless sharing is caring Errol.
• 35:28
  That's not what? There you go.
• 35:30
  That's not what somebody's mom told me the other night.
• 35:34
  Bye, Speedy. Wow, you're gonna.
• 35:36
  You're gonna. Our interns are making.
• 35:37
  Well, actually, Zeus's been on Tic Tac.
• 35:38
  No, but I believe Zach is making his Tic Tac no debut.
• 35:41
  When you're gonna talk about their moms like that?
• 35:42
  Come on. I'm.
• 35:43
  Talking about yours with a. Sea creature Don't get any ideas
• 35:49
  of sleeping with sea creatures, either interns or horseradish.
• 35:54
  Speedy, you're ridiculous. Go on to the next.
• 35:57
  One All right, so a sort that Yukon isn't as good at is
• 36:00
  football normally, but they do have two players that had one of
• 36:04
  the seven players that have had 44 / 40 inch verticals.
• 36:09
  The Cowboys in 2015, their first round pick and a second round
• 36:12
  pick for the Raiders in 2017. Name one of these players.
• 36:16
  Freaking daily lives. A first round pick for the
• 36:20
  Raiders and he said. No.
• 36:22
  A second round pick for the Raiders.
• 36:23
  A fourth round. What was the question?
• 36:25
  Tate again. That came from UConn.
• 36:27
  OK, They were had 40 / 40 inch at the at the combine.
• 36:31
  One was a first round pick for the Cowboys in 2015.
• 36:33
  The other one was a second round pick for the Raiders in 2017.
• 36:36
  Named one of these two players. I'm lost.
• 36:40
  You're telling us to say random UConn NFL draft picks?
• 36:44
  Is that what you're saying? With the 40.
• 36:46
  One of the two, one of the two was a good starting player for a
• 36:49
  while. The other one, the other one was
• 36:52
  a like a fringe safety. But name one of the two players.
• 36:56
  Name any of either of the players.
• 36:58
  Either one. You don't even.
• 36:59
  Yeah, you don't need both. Of those, name one good UConn
• 37:01
  player in the last 10 years. That's all you should have sold.
• 37:04
  I know a running back. I know a running back from
• 37:06
  Indianapolis. It's.
• 37:08
  I can't even name a UConn player.
• 37:11
  God football. I know who.
• 37:14
  You're are they in the league? Are they in the league?
• 37:16
  Not anymore. One of them.
• 37:18
  One of them. I think he just retired
• 37:19
  recently. I'll give you a hint on that
• 37:22
  one. He also played for Miami after
• 37:25
  he was with the Cowboys. I, I don't know, Jesus.
• 37:37
  I mean, didn't Donald Brown play for Yukon?
• 37:39
  That's the running back arrow was mentioning, but that was the
• 37:42
  one that set a combine record. I would I want to pull jobless.
• 37:44
  Consists so did Matt Pair, I believe.
• 37:48
  Yes. He played for Yukon.
• 37:51
  But he also did not jump 40 inches.
• 37:53
  I'm a little. Lost on this question.
• 37:55
  All right, the Cowboys player was a corner Cowboys player.
• 38:00
  That's the last thing they'll get for.
• 38:02
  This this is This is such an obscure question.
• 38:05
  Speedy Zoot or Zach, you got any guesses?
• 38:09
  You're not allowed to look up anything on this.
• 38:11
  I got. Enough because they don't have
• 38:13
  tongues. Now these players all have
• 38:15
  tongues. How much?
• 38:17
  How much cars drive in circles? I'm not going to know this one.
• 38:22
  We have Cowboys corner corners. We give up.
• 38:26
  Try to get my head out of his. Crotch.
• 38:28
  Oh God. Fish said.
• 38:29
  He has nothing. We all got all.
• 38:30
  Right. So Oli Melafano was the safety,
• 38:33
  Byron Jones. Byron Jones was the Cowboys
• 38:35
  corner. All right, Byron.
• 38:37
  I know Byron Jones. All right, I didn't know he
• 38:40
  played for UCOD. Yes, he did.
• 38:42
  He actually had the Combine record, the jump, a vertical
• 38:44
  jump record at the time before it was broken.
• 38:46
  I think five other times since then all.
• 38:49
  Right. Where are you going?
• 38:50
  Let's go bottom left. Hopefully not up his ass.
• 38:54
  All right. Next question.
• 38:55
  All right, let's go to. Daily.
• 38:57
  Wise, let's go to some hockey here.
• 38:58
  So the we talk about Matthew Schaefer possibly being a Norris
• 39:02
  candidate, just 18 years old. Fantastic.
• 39:04
  Bobby Orr obviously won Norris multiple times, 21.
• 39:08
  He's the only one besides one other player 21 years or younger
• 39:12
  that won the Norris Trophy. So besides Bobby Orr, who is the
• 39:14
  only other one to do it? Defenseman.
• 39:17
  A defenseman? Yep.
• 39:20
  That was under 21. Yep. 21 he was exactly 21, so 21
• 39:24
  or younger, but he was this guy who did it was exactly. 20 All
• 39:26
  right, so if anybody doesn't want to answer, I'll answer all
• 39:29
  of them and I'll see if I can get this right I'm.
• 39:32
  Going to immediately take. Them.
• 39:33
  All right, You want me to take yours, you can immediately take
• 39:35
  mine. All right, so here's one of
• 39:37
  them. Nicholas Lindstrom.
• 39:38
  Nope. All right.
• 39:40
  That was that was going to be my guess.
• 39:42
  OK, so I got to think of another one.
• 39:44
  You can take my guess too. I got nothing, all right,
• 39:47
  defenseman. Hokey players, hockey players.
• 39:50
  All right, so defenseman that were great young.
• 39:57
  Speedy, give us a year, the years.
• 40:00
  Could you give us a hand? I will give you a hand.
• 40:01
  He is still in the league right now.
• 40:03
  OK, Carlson. Yes, it is Kyra Carlson.
• 40:05
  Good job. I mean, come on, dude, that was
• 40:09
  easy. I mean, I could.
• 40:10
  Have told you it was I was. Going to say Carlson.
• 40:12
  Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, He was going to say Carlson, you
• 40:15
  believe? Me.
• 40:15
  You had to. You had to ask for a hint to
• 40:17
  confirm my suspicions. Your your suspicions is your
• 40:19
  thumb up your ass. Why don't you go play with your
• 40:21
  flankies, Whatever the hell it is my flankies, whatever that
• 40:28
  was at. 23740 play with your flankies.
• 40:32
  I'm going to go what should be tricky for Speedy to do deal
• 40:38
  with. Let's go this way.
• 40:41
  All right. Next question, Speedy?
• 40:44
  All right, let's go to the men's college basketball sides.
• 40:46
  We talked about Duke being number one in the AP poll now a
• 40:48
  record 149 times. Again, who are the only other
• 40:52
  three other teams? You have to get all three teams
• 40:54
  that have been on it 100 or more times.
• 40:57
  North Carolina is 1. North Carolina is 1. 100 times
• 41:05
  UNLV. Not UNLV.
• 41:08
  All right, So you're out of guesses.
• 41:10
  You got North Carolina. Kentucky.
• 41:15
  Kentucky has one of them. Yep, one more.
• 41:21
  I have one, I've got the other one that's in my head.
• 41:26
  Anybody want me to help you? No, I'm.
• 41:28
  Trying to think I'm going to see if I can't get it.
• 41:30
  I'm a second guess for a. 100 times.
• 41:35
  Yes, they're they're some of the best.
• 41:37
  Just think of the best programs. So we've already got Duke, North
• 41:42
  Carolina and Kentucky. Kentucky, give me the Indiana.
• 41:47
  Indiana. Not Indiana and not Florida.
• 41:50
  Nope, I was. Going to say Indiana before.
• 41:51
  I I'm telling you, Villanova. It's not Villanova.
• 41:54
  I get 2 right? You said yes.
• 41:56
  You got my other one here. You got one more guess.
• 41:58
  Ariel could take my other one. Kansas.
• 42:00
  Nope. Really.
• 42:02
  That is your guess though. So I believe Zoot, you got one
• 42:06
  more guess. And Zach, I don't know if you
• 42:08
  want to guess. I don't know how well you would
• 42:09
  live with college basketball, but you can guess as well.
• 42:14
  Michigan State? Nope.
• 42:16
  That's a good one. That's a good guess.
• 42:18
  That's a good guess. That was a good guess.
• 42:19
  All right, Zach, you got 2 guesses.
• 42:21
  Or you could sell them off to the highest bidder.
• 42:26
  Man, like I just, I don't, I'll be honest, for the first half of
• 42:29
  the question I totally thought we were saying college football
• 42:33
  and I was so confused that y'all's answers this.
• 42:35
  Is basketball I never heard of the.
• 42:37
  Skin No, I finally locked in. I'll dude, I'll I'll I'll sell,
• 42:41
  man. All right, all right, all.
• 42:43
  Right, Errol, you take one, I'll take the other.
• 42:45
  One, I'll let you go first. All right, give me, let's go to
• 42:58
  the Big East maybe. Maybe Yukon?
• 43:06
  Nope. Interesting.
• 43:08
  All right, one more guess. Villanova.
• 43:11
  Someone said Villanova. Somebody said Villanova.
• 43:13
  OK, Arizona. No, I wasn't as serious.
• 43:20
  No. So you guys were thinking of
• 43:22
  like really good modern programs.
• 43:25
  You should have thought of one in the past.
• 43:26
  And that was UCLA. That was the answer.
• 43:29
  Oh my goddamnit, that's. I was thinking UCLA and USC.
• 43:34
  But I was going to say USC. Errol, we were even talking
• 43:38
  about that earlier yesterday. UCLA, we were all right.
• 43:41
  Speedy, where you going? You get a.
• 43:42
  Bottom right, bottom right all. Right.
• 43:46
  Next question. All right, so we'll go to the
• 43:47
  NBA now, who is the Obviously we talked about the LeBron to Cavs
• 43:51
  rumors last week in Lebron's rookie season in O3O4.
• 43:54
  So obviously his first year with the Cavs, who was the second
• 43:56
  leading scorer on that team after.
• 43:58
  Larry use. Nope.
• 44:01
  On that. Team Was it Zedrunas Ilgauskas?
• 44:05
  He was on the team, but he was not the second leading scorer.
• 44:07
  Hold on, hold on, hold on. I knew.
• 44:13
  What's his name again? Oh my God, I think I know who
• 44:19
  it's going to be, Daniel. Gibson, Boobie.
• 44:21
  Gibson. No, it's a good.
• 44:24
  Guess you can do my guess again, I have no idea.
• 44:31
  Was it a Galskis? No, I said a Galskis.
• 44:34
  He said Ogalskis, Ogalskis was on the team.
• 44:36
  He was not the second leading scorer.
• 44:38
  He was .2 points per game behind this guy.
• 44:43
  This game. I was pretty close to that
• 44:45
  gaskis. I'm trying to think of the team
• 44:51
  and remember that team. I'm trying to also, they were
• 44:57
  bad, that's why they got LeBron. Yeah, even with.
• 45:02
  LeBron. His first name?
• 45:03
  Start with Eric. Nope.
• 45:05
  OK, so it's not. Him, that team, yeah, that team
• 45:08
  had one Eric on the team, Eric Williams.
• 45:10
  But that is not the answer. OK cuz.
• 45:12
  He was a. Was this guy like a high draft
• 45:16
  pick who flamed out? No.
• 45:18
  No, I think I know who he is. He was a power forward, right?
• 45:23
  I know who it is. And I can't.
• 45:27
  I can't remember his name. The big Brazilian with the hair
• 45:33
  God. So Vera gel.
• 45:35
  No, so Tommy gave his guests away.
• 45:42
  So Zoo, I believe you stole the guests.
• 45:45
  I already said Boobie Gibson. Oh, you said Gibson.
• 45:48
  That's right. So, Zach?
• 45:48
  Is a guest, Zach is a. Guest.
• 45:50
  Come on, Zach, give it to us. Let me name a single player on
• 45:56
  that O3O4 you said O3O four. Yes, LeBron, I was a year.
• 46:00
  I was a year old. That's funny.
• 46:07
  Biting. Action.
• 46:10
  Who else could have been on that team?
• 46:12
  All right, hold on. We got it.
• 46:16
  We got to try because this he wins if we don't get.
• 46:18
  This Oh, he does win, yeah. I have that bottom row to block
• 46:22
  block block you also gives. Me.
• 46:23
  Give us a hint, Speedy. Who did he play with besides the
• 46:27
  Cavaliers? All right, he played for Utah as
• 46:33
  well. Played for Utah.
• 46:39
  Oh, I can't. Be Williams?
• 46:44
  No. No, it wasn't MO MO was after.
• 46:48
  That's what I thought too. All right, Speedy, looks like
• 46:51
  you're the winner tonight. Goodbye.
• 46:53
  Well. The the big thing is you should
• 46:55
  have realized we talked about his son last week and it is
• 46:58
  Carlos Boozer. Oh, my God.
• 47:01
  I can't believe Carlos. I I forgot about Carlos Boozer.
• 47:05
  He was drafted by the Cavaliers before he went to Utah.
• 47:08
  I can't believe I forgot that. Yeah.
• 47:10
  Holy crap. That was another year he was
• 47:12
  with the cows before he went. To Utah.
• 47:13
  Oh my God, I was. After that.
• 47:14
  How did I forget that I was? I was.
• 47:17
  Speaking about that, like, was it with you?
• 47:19
  I was speaking with somebody. I was on the treadmill and I was
• 47:22
  speaking about. Yeah.
• 47:22
  I think it was with me. I think it was last week.
• 47:24
  Yeah, I was on the treadmill. I was talking about Carlos
• 47:27
  Boozer, and I was like, oh, the Cavaliers draft.
• 47:29
  I can't believe. I forgot that.
• 47:31
  Can't believe. Makes me sick.
• 47:34
  Speedy, you got us this time, man.
• 47:38
  We'll find a way. Just like you.
• 47:41
  Yeah, you guys are great, by the way.
• 47:45

  executive producer up there, Coach Fish, who sometimes has
• 48:37
  his thumb up his ass, but he, he at least knows what he's talking
• 48:41
  about when it comes to talent and interns.
• 48:44
  So thank you to the old fisherman himself.
• 48:47
  All right, we call this call your shot.
• 48:50
  I'm not an X's and O's guy, right?
• 48:52
  I'm not a tactician. I'm a motivator in the classic
• 48:54
  sense of the word. You know, Lombardi, Charles
• 48:56
  Lindbergh, that nun over in India, like those people call
• 49:00
  your shot all. Right, ladies and gentlemen,
• 49:06
  nobody needs to call something because you know, Fish is always
• 49:08
  calling something and he's always wrong, ladies and
• 49:11
  gentlemen. Oh well, we don't know if he's
• 49:12
  wrong, but I'm going to say he's always wrong anyways.
• 49:16
  Baby wasn't so wrong about JSN before the NFL season.
• 49:20
  But I wasn't calling your shot anyways.
• 49:25
  Thank you. All right, what's what's the
• 49:27
  order? All right, so who do we have?
• 49:29
  We have me, you and Speedy, right?
• 49:32
  Yeah, as long as Speedy Speedy's really struggling with the
• 49:35
  technology. Yeah, now my green screen wasn't
• 49:38
  loading, so I'm trying to open another Chrome browser, so I'm
• 49:41
  on audio for now. He's on.
• 49:42
  Audio. All right, so we'll just use you
• 49:44
  on audio for now. We still hear your ugly voice.
• 49:47
  All right, let's go. Let's go, fish.
• 49:50
  Let's go, Speedy. Let's go.
• 49:51
  Me. Here we go.
• 49:52
  I, I got a real simple call your shot.
• 49:54
  We're going to be diving real deep into NCAA basketball over
• 49:58
  the next few weeks. Obviously leading into the
• 50:00
  tournament, conference tournaments.
• 50:03
  I've decided I know who's going to win the NCAA championship
• 50:06
  already. I've been watching it all
• 50:07
  season. Go ahead.
• 50:09
  They're in action tonight against Iowa State.
• 50:12
  I don't care if they don't win this game.
• 50:13
  I expect them to win this game. But Arizona is finally going to
• 50:19
  get it done. They have such a deep roster at
• 50:23
  all the positions. They have the bigs that can
• 50:26
  shoot. They have the the phenom
• 50:29
  freshman in buries who's a better than they thought he was
• 50:32
  going to be coming in. They got the senior point guard.
• 50:36
  They've got everything and they got the bench players as well.
• 50:39
  They got double double S off the bench if they need it to from
• 50:42
  their forwards and centers. I am all in on the Wildcats and
• 50:47
  listen, Errol, they're so good. Bryce James had to red shirt
• 50:52
  this season. He couldn't even make this
• 50:55
  roster. Yes, Bronnie's little brother
• 50:57
  couldn't make this roster. That's how you know this is a
• 51:00
  Championship squad. Oh.
• 51:03
  Yeah, all. Right.
• 51:05
  Normally I've done college basketball, but I'm actually the
• 51:07
  shift some hockey for this. Week I couldn't take a.
• 51:09
  Shift Fish You brought it up in the sports minute about the
• 51:12
  Kings firing their head coach and.
• 51:13
  Jimmy the hot ladies. And I don't, I don't remember
• 51:17
  who the interim coach is offhand, but I do think they
• 51:19
  will make the playoffs, but I think they'll be out in the
• 51:21
  first round. So you know who they're going to
• 51:22
  hire as their next head coach now that our Tammy Panarin is
• 51:25
  there, Kevin Fialas, when he comes back healthy, one of their
• 51:28
  best players, Both of those guys, former coaches.
• 51:31
  Peter Laviolette will be the LA Kings head coach next.
• 51:35
  I have no sack. Wow, I could see it.
• 51:41
  All right. I, I've been thinking about
• 51:44
  this. You know what, I think it
• 51:46
  probably scares people away. So I'm going to go with another
• 51:50
  hockey one. I have to.
• 51:52
  And I, you know who the Norris Trophy is going to be, You know,
• 51:55
  you know who the Norris Trophy is going to right this year.
• 51:58
  I'm going to tell you who it's going to.
• 51:59
  It's going to go to Matthew Schaefer.
• 52:01
  Matthew Schaefer is having having a sensational year since
• 52:05
  the since I don't even call it the All Star break.
• 52:07
  Since the Olympic break, he scored three goals.
• 52:10
  He's been a big part of the Islander success.
• 52:12
  They've won three games in a row.
• 52:14
  They have been unbelievable and winning games at the tail end of
• 52:17
  the games when they're down by one or down by two, coming back
• 52:21
  and knocking off teams, he's been unbelievable.
• 52:24
  He's been a big part of the leadership there and has changed
• 52:27
  everything for this New York Island team.
• 52:29
  He's Patrick Wok, who win Coach of the Year this year, and one
• 52:31
  of the main reasons why is really just getting lucky with
• 52:35
  Matthew Schaefer. Matthew Schaefer to me is going
• 52:38
  to be the Norris Trophy winner. He might be the first, right?
• 52:42
  He'd be the first person to win the Norris Trophy as a rookie,
• 52:45
  as a defenseman, right? I think he is going to be the
• 52:48
  first Norris rookie defenseman to ever win that award.
• 52:53
  So congratulations and I will say congratulations when it
• 52:57
  happens. The Islanders have a good one.
• 52:58
  This guy is a super, super superstar right in the making it
• 53:03
  it's unbelievable. 18 years old. He has over 20 goals already.
• 53:06
  There's so much hockey left to be played.
• 53:08
  The kid could actually score 30 goals in his rookie season.
• 53:11
  I wouldn't be surprised if he does.
• 53:13
  I really everybody keeps talking about Cal Macar and, and what
• 53:16
  he's been doing and, and I I'm I love Macar.
• 53:19
  I think he's special. This kid is 18 years old, 18
• 53:23
  years old. He probably doesn't even have
• 53:25
  any, you know, hair on his, you know what?
• 53:27
  And this guy is putting up the numbers right now.
• 53:31
  That's just amazing people. And he's such a leader.
• 53:34
  He's so fast. He's such a good kid.
• 53:36
  He's very likable. It goes on different shows.
• 53:39
  He doesn't really hold back. He talks about his family and
• 53:43
  and everybody, all the teammates.
• 53:45
  He doesn't really take credit for all the great things that
• 53:47
  he's doing right now for the Islanders organization.
• 53:49
  And they got a kid that's coming up right now.
• 53:52
  And what is his name? HSN.
• 53:55
  I mean, this kid special too. Look what he's doing in the OHL
• 53:58
  right now. Could you imagine these two guys
• 54:00
  as your future frontline defenseman?
• 54:03
  HSN and Matthew? Schaefer Everybody says 2
• 54:07
  lefties. Can't be in the same line.
• 54:08
  Why not? Why not?
• 54:10
  I, I, I know one guy hits and, and, and both of them can score
• 54:13
  goals. HSN right now leads the he leads
• 54:16
  the OHL in goal scoring for defense.
• 54:19
  Man, he he's had I think 14 points in the last past week,
• 54:22
  week and a half. He's been unbelievable for the
• 54:25
  OHL. This kid will be in the NHL in
• 54:26
  the next two years. The Islanders have something
• 54:29
  special brewing. I'm, I'm loving it.
• 54:30
  I, I'm, I'm excited as an Islander fan, finally, I've got
• 54:34
  something to be happy about. All right, there you go.
• 54:37
  So Nors Trophy winner Matthew Schaefer, thank you to all the
• 54:40

• 54:56
  credit. Doesn't make any sense to me.
• 54:58
  There were people jumping 100 spots.
• 55:00
  It makes no sense. There's somebody tampering over
• 55:03
  there at Apple, so it doesn't make any sense, but whatever.
