• 2:00
  Speaker 2: the two of you. But I'm gonna have to, you know,
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: let's set some ground rules. Number One, Bucky and actually
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: very charismatic. So I'm gonna need you to both be
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: very charismatic the next four hours. Well you can handle that.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: You have to like us first. I don't know if
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: that's no, that's not a require.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: I've been getting away with not liking my co host
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: for years. So you're good. You're good there. As a
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: matter of fact, it's going to be a little shocking
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: to my system because I do. I'm actually kind of
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: fond of you too.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we are known as Chuck Powell's two favorite
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: people in KJR. I don't know if Travis you knew
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: that behind the scenes, that's what people say it's a
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: pretty slow race.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you that much, so it's not hard to
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: get ahead of the rest of the past. It's the
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: tallest short person. Yeah yeah, and a couple of other things,
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: even though you know they're very charismatic people and obviously
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: very well liked around these here parts. I will say this,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: neither one of you can get one cultural reference. Okay,
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Oh yes, He's very important to not throw me off
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: my game. That if you understand one single movie reference
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: that I make or reference to pop culture, if you've
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: read a book forget about it. Okay, yeah, because uh,
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: I'm used to people having not done that before. So yes,
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: if you could just fulfill that, that would just keep
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: me on my path.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Travis, I don't know about you, but if you
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: if you stick to pre two thousand, you should be
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: safe for me.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: But I'm not as young as you are more trouble
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: with this. I'll tell you something. If I make some
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Dennis Miller like reference and you get it, Travis, which
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: you probably will, I'm just gonna need you to button
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: your lip on that one. Don't laugh, just look at
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: me like I don't know what you're talking. Who's Dennis
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: Miller perfect. I'm dead serious. I'm not even like playing
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: the game here. Yeah, just a whole new set of
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: problems now thanks to youth, thanks to America's youth. And
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: here I here, you're filling in for you know, grumpy.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: I don't want anything to change, guys exactly. And and
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: you are just you are zagging when we normally z yeah. Yeah,
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: that's why they call me gen z because we sag.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: So anyway, so we'll you know, we'll iron it out
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: as we go, but just say, yeah, some very important things.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna need you to be likable, you know, because
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: that's what my usual.
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: Co workers deliver, like at six am, likable at six am.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: On a daily basis. And I'm gonna need you both
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: to get completely under my skin. Okay, yeah, so both
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: of those things. If you do that, then we shouldn't
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: have any mulgar.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: You have more experience in that category, so I might
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: need to I might need to help, need.
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: Some help, you know. I'll try to show you rope
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: the ropes. Yeah, let's do this. Let's just show you
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: the ropes.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: Well, welcome in.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: It is four hours, Chuck Powell. You know, at least
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: you got one Yeah, familiar variable here today, but we're
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: gonna have some fun today. I'm looking forward to doing
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: this show with both Anders and Travis over the course
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: of the next four hours. And I'm telling you, man,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: we got a lot of juicy topics we get to
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: discuss today. Not always the case, but we certainly have
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: them today. So we really can't screw this up. And
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: what a night in the world of sports. I mean,
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: that was about as good. I'm gonna go ahead and
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: say it, and I try not to be prisoner of
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: the moment. That was the best Monday night of sports
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: viewing of my entire life. Oh now, I know I'm
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: a prisoner of the moment. And I know there wasn't
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: a Monday night football game. You think Monday Night sports
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: and there must have been a football game in there.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: But we had the Mariners with maybe their most complete
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: victory of the entire season. And then so I'm watching
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: I'm obviously watching that front. I only had two TVs.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: They did not suffice last night. No, you had to
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: have four. Yes, So I'm having to make a decision
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: between Okay, do I want to watch the end of
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: the do I want to watch the second half? Or
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: excuse me, third period of the hockey game, which was
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: a game sevenmon yeah, versus a game one of the
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: matchup we've been waiting nine months for, which is Oklahoma
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: City versus San Antonio. And not only were both games great,
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: both went to overtime with anders and so trying to
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: figure out, like when I'm going to go to the
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: remote and try to turn it so I don't miss anything.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: I think I did it. I think I worked it,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: and I captured the entire evening, But that that eliminated
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: from my viewing almost the Dodgers and the Padres, which
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: is right now the best rivalry in baseball.
• 6:47
  Speaker 6: Might be the two best teams in baseball.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: And there was a no hitter being thrown by an
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: unknown player in our division last night.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: And they lost, and they lost. They had two outs, one.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Out in the ninth inning and they were up one zero.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: You go from no hitter being broken to shutout being
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: broken and loss, like within two outs zach netto two batters, Yeah,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: zach netto. After after our best friend Adam Fraser breaks
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: up the no hitter, Yeah yeah for the Los Angeles Angels,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: the next hitter, zach Netto hits a walk off home
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: run of the ninth thing.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, it was incredible.
• 7:24
  Speaker 7: Can you imagine the emotion that that picture is going through.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Oh, just the change. Oh, Mark Kutse had to come
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: out of the dugout and like need him coming off
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: of the mound, like to remind him how unbelievable he
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: was all night long, which he was.
• 7:38
  Speaker 7: J T.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Gen is his name, and he had ten strikeouts and
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: a no hitter through eight innings, was at one hundred pitches.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: They sent him back out there. Uh, and then he
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: gives up the pin, gives up the hit to Fraser.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: They kept him in there and he gives in the
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: two are on omer netto So anyway, I mean, we
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: shouldn't be focusing on that because there's so much the
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: lowest one going on. But it was just just to
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: give you an indo of how incredible that Monday night was.
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: That was as I don't remember a better night of
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: viewing for sports than what we had last night. It
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: was incredible.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: When you talk about the multitude of things going on,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: the one thing that I can think of, there sometimes
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: are some national championships on Mondays, So like whether it's
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: college football or college basketball, sometimes they play them on Monday, okay, and.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Maybe a national championship game trumps all, but in terms
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: of just the variety exactly, and everything was like happening
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: at once and I'm trying to keep up with all
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: of it, and all of it was so it wasn't
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: just a chore. Yeah, it was like I want to
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: watch every second of all of these events and I
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: don't have enough televisions to do it.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And I don't know if it's my add or
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: my producer background, but I like jen Z there you
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: go right there. We just consume things at ten seconds
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: on TikTok? What is TikTok? Now, I'm going to be
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: that guy. I'm clipping the scripture exactly like that. You're
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: going to be that guy. I'm going to be this guy.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: But I don't know if it's that, but I actually
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: like the challenge of trying to, you know, figure out.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Okay, So this is it crunch time in this game.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: I need to switch over here. I've got Mariners obviously
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: kind of on my computer the whole time, and that's
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: the sound that's on. And then of course I have
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: my postgame show, so I have to be like pretty
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: locked in on that, but then on.
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: This I can turn it off the Mariners. That's a
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: that's a must. That's gospel.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, yes, that is basically a religion at this point.
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: But then like going between Game seven of the NHL
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: to games Game one of the Western Conference Finals in
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: the NBA, and then like just checking in on the
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: no hitter, like I watched the last inning of that.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: That's yeah, that's that's all I did. But well, it
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: tined out that the Dodgers game was ninth inning right
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: as the NBA game got over, and then they were
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: because they were committed to it. Then they were trying
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: to like get through it so they could get to
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: the no hitter before it got broken up. So they
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: went to the split screen and the I think it
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: was Abby Lebar came on just at the tail end
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: to say, okay, like Miller gets the last out, we're
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: gonna get you to the end. As she's saying it,
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Frasier breaks up the no hitter. So that's how tight
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: it was. So you did get to see it on
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: the transition if you're watching MLB Network. But yeah, it
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: was that kind of nice.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's weird because I think you know, of
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: all the storylines, so to speak. I think the hockey
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: kind of gets flown under the radar. But that series
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: was awesome. The Buffalo Montreal series, two teams that really
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: haven't been in that conversation of a long time of
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: having a chance to win a Stanley Cup. There was
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: fights galore. It was a physical series, like really high
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: end and like it's it's so fun to watch, and
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Buffalo at home has a chance.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: That had long tortard fan base, tortured.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: Fan base, They had the longest drought of any Americans
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: sports team, and they end.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: Up Buffalo can't have nice things. No, they can't. It's
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: just been decided by the sports gods. I don't care
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: how good your quarterback is, You're not getting to the
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: super Bowl ever. Again. It feels like that with Buffalo.
• 11:13
  Speaker 7: I'm a really good team and you live in Buffalo,
• 11:15
  Speaker 7: and you live in.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Buffalo on top of it all, I mean, how far
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: can good wings take you in life? I mean, come on, now,
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: let's be honest about it. But you had to watch
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: the hockey because look, I got invited last night to
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: a trampoline party thrown by the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. Excuse me, Yes,
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: it was a there was it was catered by barbecue company,
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: and there was an open bar, and apparently the attire
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: was lingerie only, and I was and I was the
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: only male invited. Did you hear lingerie? No? I didn't
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: go because there there's nothing like a Game seven in
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: the Stanley Cup playoffs right here, So I had to
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: stay home and watch it. I mean, I I know
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: that that kind of invitation doesn't come your way a lot,
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: but I've heard there's nothing like a Game seven in
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: the Stanley Cup playoffs. So obviously there are gonna be
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: other opportunities to do something like that. With the Dallas
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Cowboy cheerleaders. Where when am I going to have another
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: chance to watch a Game seven?
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: They never say there's They never say there's nothing like
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: lingerie parties.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: Never like Ian Forness, never mentions. Yeah, so I think
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: you made the right choice. Yeah, I had to make
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: that choice. What other choice did I? That was? That
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: was a dumb and dumber moment right there? Exactly what's dumb?
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: The the party is that way? My god? So and
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: then let's talk about the NBA game, because I don't know,
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: I hear this a lot for people. I just can't
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: watch the NBA, Well, then you are very stubborn, because
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: that it's it. Really, when it's done right, it is spectacular.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: And so not only was it done right last night,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: I mean, these are the two best teams in the NBA.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: This is the two time reigning MVP going against a
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: guy that is better than him, who put on a
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: show of all shows last night, and Victor Winmbenyama forty
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: one points, twenty four rebounds, three block shots, and he
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: played almost the entire game at seven foot five, running
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: up and down the court with all of these thoroughbreds
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: on the court last night, and it was incredible. I mean,
• 13:42
  Speaker 2: it was one of the best basketball games you're ever
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: going to watch. And Mike Tarico was fantastic last night
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: and describing it, and he said at one point, you know,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: the broadcasters always throw out there when you watch a
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: game like this that you hope that this is uh
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: you know, uh, this is the game one of seven
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: of these or something of that nature. And he was like, well,
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: I'm going to say it, yeah, because it was what
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: a tone setter for the entire series and it I mean,
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you get more interesting than that game.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: Last night.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: I had a realization last night. And this may be
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: a little quick to the punch, but wehen bin Yama
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: by the time his career is over and might be
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: known as the greatest of all time. And it's, like
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: I said, it's a little too early for that, But
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: that's not even early. That's not even my realization. My
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: realization is that I'm getting sho hal tawny vibes from
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: him in terms of like, he is something that we
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: have never seen before. And he can literally dominate on
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: both ends that like, at a level that we've never
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: seen before.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: So I'll give you the second one. The first one,
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, so much has to go into that conversation.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: No, I just I think that's a possibility. That's all
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: I'm saying is that he could by the end of his.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: Well, he's got the talent. I mean, he certainly is
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: the top prospect to come out since Lebron, and Lebron
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: was considered the top prospect of all time, and I'm
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: not sure there's much difference in their credentials heading into
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: their professional career. So he's in the conversation for you know,
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, he is certainly something we've never seen before,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: and you can be that talent wise, but when you're
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: seven five and you weigh eighty eight pounds, I mean
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: there's I mean, there's certainly this element of can he
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: even make it through a quarter in the NBA much
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: last fifteen seasons in the NBA, and yet he I
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: mean he showed you last night how physical he plays,
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: how in the mix he is. He attacks the rim,
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: he won't let anybody attack his rim. I mean, it's
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: incredible to watch. We have never seen anything like it before.
• 15:56
  Speaker 8: He had that three he knocked down at the end
• 15:58
  Speaker 8: of regulations. The logo M just this slender man dropping
• 16:04
  Speaker 8: threes from you know, way downtown to you.
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 16:07
  Speaker 7: I can't remember ever seeing anything like this.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: And no pull up on the break. I mean, after
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: dominating the paint on both ends, is Anders pointed out
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden, oh yeah, I have
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: this in my game as well. We're down three, I'm
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: gonna pull up from the logo and hit a three
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: point And that that in itself, I mean, that is generational.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: That is gen z stuff. I mean when I when
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: I grew up, you weren't if you were a big man,
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: you weren't allowed to even go outside of the paint
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: for goodness sake. And then Bill, I think it was
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: Bill lame Beer, who we have to give credit for
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: being the first guy. He's a white guy, used to
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: play for the Pistons. Ok, got it, it sounds good. Yeah,
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: he used to beat everybody and everyone hated him.
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: Wow, but you could like actually beat people up in basketball.
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, wow, yeah exactly. Yeah, another reasons why Jordan's
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: the best. But but yeah, lame Beer I think was
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: like the first one that put his toes on the
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: three point line. And now they all do it. Now
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: they all do it, and it's it's incredibly incredible to watch.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: But here's why Minyama with that capability as well. So
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, we're watching something we've never seen before.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: We're watching the first of what might be a decade
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: of matchups in the Western Conference finals. And I know
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: in Seattle, we don't even we kind of want to
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: avert our eyes to what's happening with the thunder.
• 17:30
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: But they're fantastic and they're not going away anytime soon.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: And the only thing that's going to keep them from
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: possibly winning five six championships is San Antonio because now
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden, they're just as well built, and
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: they might have a better player than what OKC does.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, crazy, I think. And there's some like region regionality.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: Is that a word?
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: Regionality to it? Like too, they're kind of like wessonnality. Yeah. Yeah.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Another reference I don't understand what's appreciated. Was that Hugh
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: Lewis Now it was Florence Henderson. Okay, yeah, okay, got it.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: You did a Wes and Oil ad when I was
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: a kid, and it was you had If you used
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: Wes and Oil, you had Wess reality. Okay, yeah, it's me,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: you know. Is it kind of what the new kids say?
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: You got riz you know? Yes? Okay, yeah, it's exactly
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: like that, except fifty years ago. Got it? All right,
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: I've made my comparison. We can cross our generations here anyway. Regionality.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's that's a big part of I think
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: this this big. I don't want to say rivalry because
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: I don't even think they were technically in the same division,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: right because okay, so he's part of the don't I
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: don't know what that's That's.
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: Why Actually a good question I think they are. It
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: doesn't sound right.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Did they switch because when the Sonics were then because
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: they were in I don't even know the names of
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: the division Northwest Division.
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: I think it's called UH.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know if they switched out of that or whatever,
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: but either either way, it's a there regional rivals as well, and.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: They're not in the same division, That's what I thought.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: So it's it's weird thinking that way. The team from
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma City and a team from Texas or Oklahoma and
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: a team from Texas right next to each other, both
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: in the Southwest. I mean, obviously the obvious rival to
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: San Antonio would be Dallas, but Dallas isn't good right now,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: so having another team in that region that's really really good,
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: and obviously, like most people like you said, Chuck, this
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: is the matchup that they've been waiting to look to,
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: waiting to have.
• 19:29
  Speaker 6: Well, yeah, in the playoffs for the entire season.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: And two years from now, they'll have such fatigue from
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: Thunder because they're from thunder Spurs, and yet we've got
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: ten years of this. We have ten years of this.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, Sonics are going to come back and we're
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: going to enter the NBA and we're going to spend
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: ten years watching these two teams meet up in the finals,
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: wondering when it's going to be our turn. It's just
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: going to happen, And then we really haven't spent any
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: time on baseball, even though we're going to spend a
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: lot of time on it during the course of the
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: show today. But that was the most fun I have
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: watching the Mariners play baseball this year, and not because
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: they won six to one and Andres Munios kind of
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: got a feet on the desk ninth inning last night.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: There was enough doubt throughout the course of the game.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: There was enough good baseball by the Mariners played last night.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Colt Emerson then took over at the end with a
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: bullet three run homer for his first hit of his
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: major league career. And man, when you start writing things
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: like that in your first chapter in Major League Baseball, man,
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: you couldn't help but wonder as he's coming off the
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: field last night, like, Oh, this kind of feels like
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: we're on the verge of something special. I know that's
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: getting ahead of it, but you can't help but think
• 20:42
  Speaker 2: that when a guy's like I've hit the ball hard
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: almost every time up, I can't get a hit. When
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: am I gonna get my first hit, whack, I'm gonna
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: hit a line drive over the right field wall. They
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: didn't get like twenty feet off the ground and yet
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: went over the fence for my first home run in
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: front of his family. It was great to see. All right,
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: let's find out what's on tap for the rest of
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: the show. What's on tech? What's on tech?
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: All right, Bills, is your keyword?
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Enter it at ninety three to three kjar dot com
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: for your shot at one thousand dollars in Grand Slam cash.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: Quickly through the headlines. We've already covered most of them.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: Spurs one, twenty two, one, fifteen overtime winners over OKC
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: last night. Tonight, the Eastern Conference Finals get underway Cleveland
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: at New York Spencer Hawes. In case you missed it,
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: going to preview that series for us later on in
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: the show Stanley Cup Playoffs, Montreal does advance, knocking the
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: Buffalo Sabres out of the playoffs three to two, the
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: final score in overtime. The Western Conference Finals will start
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: Wednesday Las Vegas, Colorado. Thursday is when Montreal will play
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: again against Carolina in the Eastern Conference Finals NFL. In
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: the last forty eight hours. Minneapolis has been awarded a
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: draft and Nashville has been awarded a Super Bowl, though
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: are first for both of those cities in the National
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: Football League.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: College football.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Brendan Soresby, We've got this thing going on in college
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: football right now because they're getting paid so much money,
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: they're fighting to stay in college. It's crazy, but Brendan
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Soresby is fighting to stay in college. He's filed an injunction.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: We're actually going to talk about that in our brand
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: new segment OPQ later on in the show. And as
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: I mentioned, Mariners six White Sox won last night, snaps
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: a three game losing street Colt Emerson a three run homer.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: Today tonight, I should say it will be the piggyback
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: matchup of Miller and Castillo versus Anthony Ka. Meanwhile, the
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: Padres won over the Dodgers last night one to nothing,
• 22:44
  Speaker 2: and the Angels won over the A's last night two
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: to one, a no hitter broken up in the ninth.
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: We haven't spent a lot of time on Mariners because
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: we have Mariner's Morning After coming your way next. Plus
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Ryan Heay's going to join us today at nine o'clock
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: to talk some MS baseball as well. Well, it's Chuck,
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: it's Anders and it's Travis. Sports Radio ninety three point
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: three KJRFM. It's Anders and it is Travis. Ashley will
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: be hosting today at ten o'clock, filling in for Greg Bell,
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: and so we have Mariners Morning after to deliver and
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: fun game. Last night, Mariners get the win over the
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: Chicago White Sox, and so here we go with our
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: postgame show, a highlight, a SoundBite, a preview of what's
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: going on tonight, which is rather fascinating. It was a
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: fun game last night. I mean, it wasn't like a blowout.
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: There were certainly some things to criticize, but maybe the
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: most complete Mariner win of the entire year. Brian Wu
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: got into a little bit of trouble early with traffic,
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: but kept finding his way out. Then he got into
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: a groove and ends up going six shutout innings for
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: the team. Meanwhile, the Mariners get a home run to
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: center from Julio Rodriguez to take the lead, and they
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: would never squander that lead. Randy a Rose Arena had
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: a couple of big hits in this game, and the
• 24:03
  Speaker 2: next thing you know, it's three to nothing. Now the
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: White Sox did score a run in the seventh as
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: soon as we took Wu out with two outs. Of
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: all people, that bunting freak job, Christian Peters somehow hit
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: a home run three hundred and sixty six feet to
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: make it three to one, and so we had to
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: get a little nervous there for a little bit. Next
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: two guys got on, but then Jose Ferrer gets the
• 24:26
  Speaker 2: team out of the seventh inning, gets through the eighth
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: inning as well. It's three to one, and it set
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: up the theater for the ninth inning, where the Mariners
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: put two men on for twenty year old Colt Emerson
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: making his second start of his big league career, and
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: he'd hit some ball's hard, but he hadn't collected his
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: first hit of his professional major league career anyway until this.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Again, the two two now the right field line into
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: the corner.
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: It's god, Emmerton.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: You know you anymore? Your first big league old ron,
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: your first major league hand. Aaron Goldsmith on the call,
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: and yes, I got a few tweets last night, pure
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: burgundy from Aaron on his two home run calls last night.
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: That was cold em cented Veronic Cornix Donor.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: I love your Aaron Goldsmith, the President. It is so good.
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: One of my favorite parts of the morning. Three run
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: omer for Colt Emerson to make it six to one,
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: and Munios was already warmed up and loose. I like
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: the Dan threw him last night. It should not cost
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: him from pitching tonight. I don't think you could go
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: another game without him pitching and then worry about him,
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: you know, perhaps get a little rusty, as we saw
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: earlier in the year. So I'm glad that he went
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: ahead and rode that horse through the ninth and he
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: got a one two three inning for a six to
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: one win. But let's before we hear from Dan talk
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: about Colt Emerson first, because man, the first impression has
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: been a great one. I know it took him what
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: eight at bats to get seven at bats to get
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: his first hit, but he'd hit some balls hard. I
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: loved the line drive the other way.
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: Ye.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: He doesn't seem to be intimidated, even at the major
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: league level when he's behind an account, which a lot
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: of major leaguers do wilt in two situations. And that
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: was just a seed for his first home run. That
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: was just a seed.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's had a couple walks too. He like
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: you said, he doesn't look over matched up there. If
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: you were a random baseball fan turning into tuning into
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: the game and didn't know the situation that Colt Emerson
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: hadn't gotten a hit yet, or had just been called
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: up or anything, you would have just said business as usual.
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: That's a guy that's in their lineup every day. So
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: about that home run, it was like probably a couple
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: of inches below the zone as well, and.
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: Put change up, keeps the hands back, puts a good
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: swing on it. It doesn't look like he's trying to hit
• 27:09
  Speaker 2: the home run. He's trying to put the ball in
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: play and just makes good contact and it goes over
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: the right field wall. So it's just I can't wait
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: for more of that. It was poetic. It's pretty poetic that,
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: you know, we were waiting on it, and the family's
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: there and they missed the first game, and then you know,
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: and then in the second game, I mean they're they're
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: on pins and needles watching him play, and then he
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: picks that moment too, not just hit a home run,
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: but a very impressive home run. Yeah, I have a
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: fun fact for you guys. Okay.
• 27:38
  Speaker 7: Colt was the eleventh Mariner to have his first hit
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: be a home run okay, and the last Mariner to
• 27:44
  Speaker 7: do that was Jared Kellennick.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: Oh, geez, don't do that. Don't do that. He hit
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: the ball right over his head. Oh that's true. Okay, Yeah, okay,
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: you've saved it. Yeah, don't don't. I'm not saying I'm
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: not making a comparison a right way, because, by the way,
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: there are some similarities between those two guys. They kind
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: of look alike. Yeah. The only thing that's not similar
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: is everything between their ears. Yes, yeah, but they're kind
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: of physical matches and these lefties and height certainly hype. Yeah.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: And so a three run omer for Emerson made it
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: to six to one. So Mariners do get to win
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: last night. There are three games under five hundred. They're
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: one game out of first place. They could be in
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: first place by the end of the night tonight and
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: still because the A's have lost three straight games as
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: the current placeholder and that's all they is a placeholder.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: Here's Dan Wilson after the game.
• 28:43
  Speaker 9: Excellent ball game tonight. You know, kind of up and
• 28:45
  Speaker 9: down a lot of areas that you look at. I
• 28:48
  Speaker 9: thought the guys played really extremely well. You know, I
• 28:51
  Speaker 9: think Julio's at bat there in the first in and
• 28:54
  Speaker 9: kind of set the tone. Just a great at bat,
• 28:57
  Speaker 9: taking some really close pitches there, getting a three two
• 28:59
  Speaker 9: and then driving the ball you know, center right center there.
• 29:02
  Speaker 9: I just thought it was a great at bat, kind
• 29:05
  Speaker 9: of set the stage for us, got us out ahead,
• 29:08
  Speaker 9: you know, Brian wu yet I think twenty five pitches
• 29:11
  Speaker 9: there in the first inning, but able to settle in
• 29:13
  Speaker 9: after that and really kind of go from there. Obviously, Colt,
• 29:18
  Speaker 9: what a great story, you know, glad that his parents
• 29:20
  Speaker 9: were here to see that. What a great what a
• 29:23
  Speaker 9: thrill to have that that first hit bee you know,
• 29:25
  Speaker 9: home run here, and not only that, but into kind
• 29:28
  Speaker 9: of a key situation there late in the game, give
• 29:30
  Speaker 9: us a little more lyft and and you know, what
• 29:33
  Speaker 9: a great moment for he and his family, and you know, again,
• 29:36
  Speaker 9: just a good.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: Ball game all around, Dan Wilson last night after the
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: six to one win, I agree, Dan, good ballgame all around.
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: And we will talk Colt Emerson, how these pieces are
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: going to fit. The day that Brendan Donovan returns. Will
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: do that at eight o'clock today, we still have ABC's
• 29:54
  Speaker 2: of the Ms, which we're going to have to discuss
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: the Johnny Parada a runner in field or in interference
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: played last night. That was fun, all right, not for
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: the White Side. It was not because that was a
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: terrible call, but we'll take it. I can't even imagine
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: Mariner's Twitter if that would have happened to us in
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: a game that was all. That was one of the
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: worst calls I've ever seen. I don't mind will Vinnible
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: losing his mind on that one, but we'll take it.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: We haven't gotten a lot of breaks so far this year,
• 30:25
  Speaker 2: so we'll take that break and run with it. But
• 30:27
  Speaker 2: we'll talk about that a little bit later on in
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: the show. Also another huge topic today, and we'll do
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: this at seven oh five, but I'll mention it to
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: close out Mariners morning after. The piggyback game is on tonight.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: We will be piggybacking tonight in this game against the
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: White Sox. It will be Bryce Miller, as announced by
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: Dan yesterday that we'll get the start and then Luis
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: Castillo will pitch in relief. And this is the solution
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: they've come up with for having six starting pitchers for
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: a five man rotation, and the idea being the theory
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: behind it is that maybe you buy yourself an entire
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: bullpen free night, that if Miller goes five and Castillo
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: goes four, or Miller goes four and Castill can go five,
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: that you might not have to use a single bullpen
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: piece throughout the course of a game, one time through
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: the rotation, every time through the rotation. So it's a
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: fascinating idea. We're going to discuss it at seven oh five,
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: but the experiment begins tonight. It will be a six
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: forty first pitch from Bryce Miller and the White Sox
• 31:35
  Speaker 2: will go with Anthony k who is left handed. Uh.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: And that's really all you really need to know about
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: last time too. So we'll talk a lot of Mariners
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: baseball today, but coming up next we'll preview tonight's Eastern
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: Conference Finals in the NBA. Sports Radio ninety three point

  Speaker 2: Hey, good morning, Headlines, coming up at seven o'clock. Also,
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: we'll talk about the piggyback experiment the Mariners are going
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: to conduct starting tonight at seven o five. When I
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: say we, I mean Andrews Hearst, Travis Moger, and myself. Welcome.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: Ashley will be co hosting today or hosting the Greg
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: Bell Show today at ten o'clock. And so we got
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: a little bit of a moving around, moving around to
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: pieces here this morning on the Chuck and Buck radio program.
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: But it's great to have Temo and Ando here on
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: the radio show here today. There's kind of a rule
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: and entertainment, like there's a reason Chris Rock goes last
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: on the night. There's a reason why the Beatles don't
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: play until the the other bands have already played that day.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: So for the Cavaliers and the Knicks on ESPN tonight,
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: good luck, because the Spurs and the Thunder kind of
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: dropped the mic last night on NBC. Nevertheless, it is
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: a pretty fascinating series. And yesterday Spencer Hawes joined us
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: to preview both the Western Conference Finals and the Eastern
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: Conference Finals. And since the Eastern Conference Finals have yet
• 33:40
  Speaker 2: to begin, in case you missed it, thought you might
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: want to get Spencer's two sins before we have opening
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: tip tonight at five o'clock. I asked Spencer about the matchup.
• 33:52
  Speaker 5: I actually like this matchup a lot more, I think
• 33:56
  Speaker 5: than maybe the narrative, the discourse and given her credit
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: for it, and I think everything's relative. The one in
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: the West is on paper right now going to be
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: one of the better playoffs series in a while. But
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: I've been waiting for this Cleveland team to put it
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: together since well before the James Harden apposition. Once, once
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: they got Donham in there, it's like, all right, what
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: on paper? You're looking at it, like what are they missing?
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: What do they need? And it it appears at this
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: point like it took they needed a seven round you know,
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: conference semi final series kind of get get everything clicking.
• 34:30
  Speaker 5: But you said it. The Knicks have been a juggernaut.
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: They've figured out and the unlocked Karl Anthony Towns and
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: using him as points center, and that's opening up, you know,
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: offense for everybody else. Uh, they haven't had og, he
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: hasn't been helping. Now he's got some time to rest
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: coming back to the conference finals. And then Jalb Brunton's
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: looking like a new age Allen Iverson with an efficient
• 34:59
  Speaker 5: three points. He's the head of the snake. He does
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: it all, and he's making things really easy for the
• 35:05
  Speaker 5: rest of the guys on that roster.
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: All right, So what's it going to come down to?
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: What's the matchup that each team has to expose in
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: order to win?
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: I think it comes down at home for advantage, which
• 35:16
  Speaker 5: is why I think or why I am picking going
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: to pick the Knicks. But you know, Cleveland is a
• 35:23
  Speaker 5: team that's built on shot making, built on three point shooting,
• 35:27
  Speaker 5: and a game like last night, you get Layl coming
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: up with them, sho hits five of them and things
• 35:32
  Speaker 5: look really easy for him, and then you see him
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: at other times when when they're not going in and
• 35:37
  Speaker 5: it looks like it's difficult basketball to watch. So I
• 35:41
  Speaker 5: think they're you know, they got a size advantage, and
• 35:47
  Speaker 5: I'd like to see them kind of trying to recreate
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: the game plan last night of really getting mobilely involved
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: early and taking advantage of him and opening things up
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: for the three point shooters rather than than just coming
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: out and hucking.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: Them from the get go.
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: And then New York I think just has to I
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: think they just got to stay consistent. I mean, they
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: they got their packing order established, they got all their
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: guys rolling. They will figure out a way to reintegrate
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: og back in the lineup, who's hopefully healthy, and put
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: that behind them. I just I think I think it
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: comes down to the home court and the advantage that
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: New York's going to have at the Garden.
• 36:26
  Speaker 2: Former NBA big man Spencer Hawes Seattle Legend joining us
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: every week to talk about the NBA Playoffs. I think
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: it really is a good matchup and the Knicks are
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: playing championship caliber basketball, which I'm not sure the Cavaliers are.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: But can the Knicks sustain that? I mean, they've got
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: to win eight more games, and I think maybe they
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: just played the best basketball of their lockings in the
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: previous series. So to me, this is a really good fight.
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: It's sort of, you know, I know how I started
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: the segment, but I went to both Tyson Holafield fights,
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: and they didn't fight it first and then let all
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: the other fights take place afterwards. They kind of saved
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: it for last. So to me, this is sort of
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: the undercard. I don't think the Cavaliers or Knicks have
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: a shot against the Spurs thunder winner, and yet it
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: should be a really good fight for I would assume
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: six to seven games.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, sometimes it really boils down to and I think
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: the one kind of equalizer here in this series. I
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: do believe the Knicks is the better team, but I
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: think the best player on the court every single game
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: is gonna be Donovan Mitchell. Bruns is pretty damn good,
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: is really really good. But I still like we saw
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: what Donovan Mitchell when he finally does something in the postseason.
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: And Christopher Kidt and I talked about this yesterday, where
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: he feels like he's been expected to take that next
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: step for so long now, especially in the in the
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: in the playoffs, and once he does that, it's it's
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: a different animal with what he can do in his career.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: So I think they are both of them what they are.
• 38:00
  Speaker 2: I don't think there's a next step that Mitchell and
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: Brunson can take. I think that they've proven I'm going
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: to score twenty eight points, probably not play very good defense,
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: and if the guys around me play better, we got
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: a shot. That's I think where both the Cavaliers and
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: Nix are all right. Headlines next cash contest word next,
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: and we'll talk about the piggyback experiment of Seattle Sports
