• 0:26
  Speaker 1: I ain't saying no to Ariel Holwani when the Knicks
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: are playing in the NBA Finals. I pause there because
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: people might say, well, why wouldn't you say no to
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: him today?
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: That's the exact guy you should say no to.
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: It. No.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: I think Ariel represents exactly what Nick fans are thinking
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: and going through, as well as anyone that I have
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: spoken to, and so I want the audience to get
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: a piece of that. I want to share that with
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: him because he is going insane, He's emotional, and I
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: want to talk to him about being a nick fit
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: and what this means to him, what.
• 0:57
  Speaker 5: A big night is he I'm not gonna lie. I'm
• 0:58
  Speaker 5: kind of overwhelmed by Nick. I might sit out this
• 1:01
  Speaker 5: one with Ario.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: We have Lucy Rodin as well, Welcome back to Lucy
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: and Michelle Beadle, the most famous San Antonio Spurs fan
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: we've had on since Chay Serrato. She will join us
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: coming up. I'm finding them in hour number two. I
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: want to try to get a bet together with Taylor
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: and Beatle. Go ahead, Taylor.
• 1:20
  Speaker 6: The more people keep saying the words the Knicks and
• 1:23
  Speaker 6: the NBA Finals together, and the closer we get to
• 1:26
  Speaker 6: tip off, I feel like I'm getting sick, really, and
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: my nerves are buildings, saying I've got people texting me
• 1:34
  Speaker 6: that I haven't talked to in years, and they're texting
• 1:37
  Speaker 6: me wishing me good luck tonight, Like I'm starting at
• 1:40
  Speaker 6: shooting guard and I'm playing forty plus minutes.
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: You know what's great about this, Taylor? Because I thought
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: about this too. I was like, Man, what would I
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: feel like if I was a Knicks fan. I'm just
• 1:50
  Speaker 5: thankful this first two games are not at MSG, like
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: they need this time to acclimate themselves to.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: The big lights, the pressure of it all.
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: It's like I was saying yesterday, Carl Anthony is probably
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: gonna show you some old Karl Anthony town stuff, Like
• 2:03
  Speaker 5: he's maybe a little nervous early on maybe just might
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: pick up three fouls just so he can recover and
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: center himself on the bench. But yeah, I think it's
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: helpful because MSG. Right, imagine Taylor game one, Like, it's
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: one thing. If they come in too. Oh, if they
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: win to in San Antonio, it's going to be the
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: craziest building ever.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: It's gonna right party. Yes, if they go down oh two, yeah,
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: they'll be a little calmer. Well, you're gonna be nervous
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: because you're down oh two. Yes, but imagine if you
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: were just kicking off at MSG. It would be wild.
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: So I think right now it's good sort of get
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: used to the finals, get used to San Antonio, which
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: is not too intimidating of a venue, Yes, and then
• 2:41
  Speaker 5: come home.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: I like the take.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: It's odd you're saying so, just so we're clear on this,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: the Knicks are going to be more relaxed playing on
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the road than they would be playing in front of
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: their home fans.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: It's not a terrible take. Take that's why.
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's the most pressure packed place. You know, you're
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: the home team and all these celebrities and these ridiculous
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: fans and all this history is yelling at you.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: The entire time. Go ahead, Mikey, it's walking into the
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: pool instead of jumping. Yes, correct, going in San Antonio,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: you walk in? Get used to it.
• 3:09
  Speaker 7: Yes, step yes, as opposed to jumping in.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I'm freezing and I'm gonna walk into the pool guy, Right,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: it's dipping your toe in the water essentially, is what
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: it is.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: Yes, are you will walk into the pool? Guy, I'm
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: jump in.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: I have Mike as a cannonball every time he goes
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: into the pool.
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: No, uh, after the first one, get out and jump
• 3:25
  Speaker 6: in a bunch. Is he for this next team? I'm
• 3:28
  Speaker 6: thinking about it tonight. San Antonio is not the building
• 3:32
  Speaker 6: that that Knicks fans can take over where they have
• 3:35
  Speaker 6: in the past in these past couple of series. You're
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: looking at the Atlanta series, You're looking at the Cleveland series,
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: You're looking at the Philadelphia series. I can't remember the
• 3:43
  Speaker 6: last time the Knicks played a game that was actually
• 3:46
  Speaker 6: a true road atmosphere.
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: There are very few NBA cities where a New Yorker
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: would not want.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: To relocate to.
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: Right, San Antonio does not feel like a title list,
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: but where the New Yorkers I'd be like, Yeah, I'm
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: just gonna go to the San Antonio, Miami great, you
• 4:01
  Speaker 5: know some of the Atlanta great.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: San Antonio not so much, so they can't take it.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: And now imagine, like imagine a few Knicks do infiltrate
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: whatever the Spurs arenas called these days, and then they
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: don't put on the T shirts and then you just
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: got like a smattering of Knicks orange and blue, like
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: just an ey sore in the middle of that, you know, artwork.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: That is the San Antonio crowd. That would be great
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: for Nicks. They didn't take over, you know, the Spurs building,
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: but they made it obvious that they were there.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: Do you think anyone inside the Knicks organization is thinking
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: along the lines the way is he is thinking in
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: terms of, hey, happy to be on.
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: The road for the first two. Let's dip our toe
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: in the water.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: They don't have home court advantage. If there's a Game seven,
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: it's on San Antonio's home court.
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: I do agree that you want game seven in your building,
• 4:48
  Speaker 6: you want Game seven in Madison Square Garden. But I
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: do think there is something there to what is he saying,
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: where if the Knicks just steal one of the first
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: two games, the series shifts back to them. Where the opposite,
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: all the pressures on you to protect your home court.
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: I don't think this is the worst spot for the
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: Knicks to be in.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: I don't either.
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: And I think even though game game one is sort
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: of normally the most anomaly type of game of a series,
• 5:12
  Speaker 5: but I think this is going to be Sorry, Taylor,
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: I think this is a Spurs game tonight. I think
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: if we already saw what was I mean, technically it
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: is a Spurs game tonight, it's a Knicks game.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Is I think the Spurs will win the game tonight?
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: Yes, ste If you remember the previous series, the Cavs series,
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: what was the closest game, Game one, and it was
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: after a ton of rest. Yes, And so I feel
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: like you might be able to might sort of recreate that.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: The Knicks may be sort of figuring things out, the
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: Spurs riding a little bit of that momentum and being
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: at home, and they take game one. But Game two,
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: for me, steals feels imminently stealable.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: Yes, this feels like rest versus slightly less rest. Right,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: And I got news for you, san Antonio. Is he
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: better be right? You better get tonight's gabe. If you
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: let the Knicks get out to like an eighteen to
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: two lead and they just steamroll you on your home court.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: Series is a rap.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: It's over and if they don't do that, the Knicks
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: will still win in five.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: But don't let us get started. Do not let us
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: get started?
• 6:16
  Speaker 7: Go ahead, Mikey, this is sleep versus nap?
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: All right? Taylor who has.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Written five Jalen Brunson songs because four wasn't enough. Yes,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: and I'm certain there'll be more if they win the
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: NBA Championship. Here he has a message album like Drake. Listen,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: this is a big night for Taylor. I mean, this
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: guy changes life, the biggest night of his life. Yes,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: what happens if they lose?
• 6:41
  Speaker 7: Here?
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: What are you gonna do? Like if they lose not
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: Game one, just the series in.
• 6:44
  Speaker 8: General, like that, there's no coming back.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: You're trying not to think about it really like to
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: the show, like forever.
• 6:52
  Speaker 8: I don't want to take it to a dark place.
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: A big update.
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: Though you said you were thinking about leaving Wednesday, You're
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: obviously still here in South Florida. It's not obvious to everybody,
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: obvious to me. What is the plans are you traveling?
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: My plan is to be in New York in time
• 7:07
  Speaker 6: for game two, even though the game is in San Antonio, right,
• 7:11
  Speaker 6: But it's the biggest game of the series, as you know.
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: So that's why, yes, exactly, Well, I ran into some hiccups.
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: You know, I've got a dog if the series go seven,
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: god forbid, and then I have to stay for the parade?
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: Is he I'm just trying to I was just trying
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: to gain any sort of favor I could with my
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: girlfriend in time for game two. So that's why I
• 7:30
  Speaker 6: kind of sacrificed Game one.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to tell her that. I'm not going
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: to say that's saying spending time with her. It's called
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: the sacrifice. I'll keep that between us.
• 7:38
  Speaker 8: I'll spend time with it.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Click this eclipment that send me the audio so I
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: can send it to her. He is such a big
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: nick fan that he named his dog Oakley, and so
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: he also has a message here, and I'm very excited
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: to hear this, a message to Wemby in the form
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: of a song.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: Let's play it.
• 8:07
  Speaker 9: Hey, wem Bin Yama, welcome into New York City. There's
• 8:11

• 9:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I mean, I got emotional, He moved me.
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: It used to be where Taylor's singing was so bad
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: that I was just like, Wow, this is hilarious because
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: it's bad.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: Yes, he puts some effort into that.
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: He hit a couple of notes, not all of them, right,
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: not all of them, but he hit a couple of
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: notes that was nice.
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: You know, I'm gonna ask for that again.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: The most miraculous thing about that is how he wove
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: webbin Yama into an actual song.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: I'm like, how did he do this? Almost as hard
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: as sand to Koopa one more time?
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: I was in.
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: Song choice he's actually playing the guitar, by the way
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: he is.
• 9:46
  Speaker 9: Hey, wembin Yama, welcome into New York City. There's a
• 9:50
  Speaker 9: finals to be played, and I bet you will play, so,

• 9:58
  Speaker 8: Brunson will shine brighter than you. New York is dude.
• 10:05
  Speaker 9: Hey, when Bin Yama, you should worry about the Garden.
• 10:08
  Speaker 9: It's the mecca for a reason. You can go in
• 10:12
  Speaker 9: as James Harden.
• 10:13
  Speaker 8: What a bum.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: That's straight.
• 10:16
  Speaker 9: Brunton and the boys will be the ones two end
• 10:20
  Speaker 9: your run.
• 10:22
  Speaker 8: Oh first titles in seventy three.
• 10:26
  Speaker 9: So you don't lights I have, Oh, first titles since
• 10:29
  Speaker 9: seventy three.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: Got put one hand on your ear.
• 10:32
  Speaker 9: Oh, first titles in seventy three. Oh, first titles in
• 10:38
  Speaker 9: seventy three, titles in seventy three.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: God, that makes me so sad.
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: I was four years before I was born, and you
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: guys haven't enjoyed anything.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: It makes me so proud.
• 10:50
  Speaker 8: Beats though, I think I still have a hard time
• 10:52
  Speaker 8: keeping up with you.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah no, it's tough.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, So Taylor, as we get closer to tonight's game,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: you find yourself getting more and more emotional scared, for
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: lack of better term, because you don't want the Knicks
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: to embarrass themselves in the NBA Finals and get you know,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: swept in four or lose this thing in five.
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, so the Eastern Conference playoffs, I was confident.
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: I was confident that the Knicks could get here to
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: this point. Yeah, now it feels like all bets are
• 11:19
  Speaker 6: off and it's kind of like a Jesus take the wheel.
• 11:22
  Speaker 8: You just have to hope you're the better team for
• 11:24
  Speaker 8: just four games.
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: It's interesting too with Wen ben Yama on the way
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: he thinks, right, so it was clear he thought that
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: OKC bad for the league, at least on top of
• 11:34
  Speaker 5: the league.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: Right, you got the.
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: Shay, the unethical hoops, you got all the hacking, you
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: got all the chat. I mean, come on, I don't
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: think Wen ben Yama can even say anything negative or
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: think anything super negative about the Knicks potentially winning Jalen Brunson.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Maybe he throws his head back, maybe.
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: He flops a little bit, but comparison to SGA, not really.
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: And they've hadn't had it since seventy three, as noted
• 11:58
  Speaker 5: by Song, and it's just hey, maybe it's their time.
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: The Garden's great. So I don't think Victor Weinbinyama has
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: that deep rooted hatred as much as he just really
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: wants to finish the deal.
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: I think Wemby has that showman in him too, to
• 12:10
  Speaker 6: realize the spectacle of the garden, Like that's true. The
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: Christmas Game, he put on an absolute show. But there's
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: also there was a clip going around of Spike Lee
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: and Victor wen Binyama at an All Star game where
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: Spike Lee goes up to Victor wen Binyama. They're talking
• 12:26
  Speaker 6: and Spike Lee's like, I hope to see you in
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: a finals, like we really want to see you in
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: the finals, and Victor wen Binyama to Spike Lee says,
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: I want to see you in the finals.
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: Two.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Why did Spike say that?
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Why is he inserting himself into a series before the
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: series even starts. Well, it worked, I mean he holds
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: onto this stuff in existence. I know, but I really
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: want to see you in the finals. And he saying, Oh,
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: he thinks I'm going to be easy when I'm made
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: to the NBA.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: Finals if I play the decks, and no he's not.
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: Because he embraces all of this stuff.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: He's going to walk into the Mecca for the first
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: time playing in an NBA Finals game thinking that's his
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: building before he's even played a game.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: Aim in the NPA Finals, that mags is where I'm
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: stopping them up. No, I do. This guy scares me.
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: I'm so terrified of him. The word they use it.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: He's not a guy. He's an alien.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: I don't know what he is, but he just like
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: he holds onto this stuff. Spike, leave it alone, you know.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: I am so terrify ms wemb Yeah.

  Speaker 5: was just look, I understand, Hey, these fans got to
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: get this out of their system. Right, like we said,
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: like we learned in the song from Taylor. It's been
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: since seventy three.
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but most of us we've already been through this.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: Have your moment. I'm good.
• 14:15
  Speaker 5: I do not appreciate him saying that stupid dog about Corgy.
• 14:19
  Speaker 8: Corgy is the course about that dog.
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: I'm glad you didn't say it publicly, but I love
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: dogs and I will not share.
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: I will not talk down about that dog. That dog
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: picked Spurs and seven. Therefore I'm picking Spurs and seven.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: All right. We have Michelle Beadle, a big Spurs fan,
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: coming up an hour.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Number two, Lucy rodein. He's going to join us as well.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: We'll talk some college football with her. Welcome back, Lucy.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: But first we need to get to a game of
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: hand up. It's been a while since we played a
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: game of hand up around here, and so I was.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: Saying, he says he had it ready. I don't need
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: to sound surprised.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: How about that wow with the drop too?
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: Amazing? Yeah, it is perfectly time too. He's on his gate,
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: he really is. All right, who's going first here? Taylor?
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: You want to take it away here?
• 15:11
  Speaker 8: I can go all right, hand up. I'm falling for
• 15:14
  Speaker 8: the banana and the tailpipe. I'm buying this US soccer team.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: Oh no, really, I knew this was Kevin.
• 15:19
  Speaker 6: What's the matter with you? I mean, seriously, so polistic.
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: Looked like the star that USA needs him to be.
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: They they're gonna have plenty of defensive mistakes, but USA
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: and their match against Senegal showed that they could trade
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: punches with one of the world's you know, most athletic teams.
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: I Texa Chris Whittingham Champions League commentator. He said, if
• 15:38
  Speaker 6: they look good against Germany on Saturday, then I think
• 15:41
  Speaker 6: you can get excited.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: Oh wow, okay, but you're excited before that, so excited
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: for what?
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: What do you expect? What's a good result for the
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: US soccer team? For Taylor Bippolis got it?
• 15:52
  Speaker 8: You gotta win the group.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: I think win the group, not just get out, okay.
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: Right, and then you have to get past the round
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: of sixteen okay, and then once your past round of sixteen,
• 15:59
  Speaker 6: you guys know.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: Yes, anyone can win it from there. You're right, I mean,
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: who was in their group just out of curiosity?
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: Why in there, but you like gotta win it. You're
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: starting to get behind him. Okay, I can go here
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: if you want, please do hand up.
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: I don't think you guys really know how much I
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: hate being out there for softball.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: I don't do it.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: I do.
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: I do, actually up, I do, okay, because I mean
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: I did you know we're back. When Taylor asked to play,
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: I was like, you know, of course I'm going to participate.
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: Of course I'm going to try to get as many
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: people to participate so that Taylor gonna have a softball
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: team to play. And if you know, if I'm lucky,
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: I get to sit out. And it just so happened
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: that I hadn't been able to sit out too many
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: of the games. And it's just like, imagine you Stu
• 16:54
  Speaker 5: just being told, hey, go play a game of cricket,
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: all right, because you've never played it in your life,
• 16:59
  Speaker 5: and everybody out there, half the people out there are going.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: To be looking at you and say, hey, this guy sucks.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: Like it's exactly. I just hate every second of it,
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: and I just want to be going. We didn't need
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: a hand up for it. We all knew it.
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: And yeah, no, I don't think you really know the
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: depths about how much I hated it.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: Dan Bayer barely knows you, Dan, did you know it
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: before he put his hand up.
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: And said it, Yeah, absolutely, yes, Okay, so I'll keep
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: my hand down then and let the game continue. All right,
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: let's go to Dan Bayer. He has his hand up,
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: hand up.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: I wait all year for summer, and then when summer comes,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: they go, man, I can't wait for fall.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: It's hot out there, man, yes, it is like two
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: days in.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, let's turn the leaves, let's turn
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: them orange, let's turn them yellow red.
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, let's go to Mikey. Mikey, I go ahead.
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: Is he kind of threw me off because that really
• 17:50
  Speaker 7: wasn't a hand up?
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: No, it wasn't. He's confirming something we already knew. I mean,
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: I know, hand up.
• 17:57
  Speaker 10: I am lying and selling through my tea to get
• 18:00
  Speaker 10: unload these World Cup tickets.
• 18:02
  Speaker 7: What's that got someone? I've got someone on the hook,
• 18:06
  Speaker 7: and I'm I'm reeling them in so slowly. Yes, but
• 18:09
  Speaker 7: I am lying through my teeth about how good these
• 18:11
  Speaker 7: tickets are.
• 18:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: So it has to be a slow reel because you
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: want to give the impression that you don't mind going
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: to the gate.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: You know I don't mind going listen.
• 18:19
  Speaker 10: I want to go, I just am not sure that
• 18:22
  Speaker 10: I might be able to. And I know you care
• 18:25
  Speaker 10: a lot about one of the teams that's playing, so
• 18:28
  Speaker 10: I would rather give them to you.
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: For this amount of Mikey, how mad are you that
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: you don't have USA tickets?
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: Because Taylor would be Yourryan Fish right now?
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: Sink.
• 18:38
  Speaker 7: If I had USA tickets.
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: I'd be going, Okay, you wouldn't even try to sell
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: them to Taylor because I think you can get Bookop.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: He's big.
• 18:46
  Speaker 7: I know Taylor doesn't have the money to pay what
• 18:48
  Speaker 7: I'm going to charge for.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: It's on stupid. I ain't paying for bord Opricardo. He's
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: got his hand up, Go ahead, hand up. I haven't
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: been paying attention to this show. Today we got Afternoon Baseball.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah again, you're.
• 19:01
  Speaker 8: Confirming what we already knew.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: That's not the name of the gate.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, let's go to Let's go to Iowa. Sam
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: out in Sherman Oaks. He has his hand up. I'm
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: told go ahead. I was Sam hand up.
• 19:13
  Speaker 11: As a former Corky owner, I cannot stand for Corky criticism.
• 19:17
  Speaker 11: They are smart, funny dogs. They are Fox bear pigs
• 19:20
  Speaker 11: combined into a dog. It's not this dog's faulted. It
• 19:23
  Speaker 11: got picked whoever it picked the spurs, so lay off
• 19:26
  Speaker 11: the Corgi's they're amazing.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: What was your corgy's name?
• 19:28
  Speaker 11: We had one name Maki Sushi roll, and another way
• 19:30
  Speaker 11: another one named Roquel Welsh, A little play on name
• 19:34
  Speaker 11: for each, a little wordy like Roquel Welsh.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: The first one, I was Sam, the first one. What
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: was the name of their Maki sushi roll?
• 19:41
  Speaker 11: Because he shaped like a sushi roll, like a mocky roll.
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: If you say that to a dog in public, people
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: are gonna think you're just really hungry.
• 19:48
  Speaker 11: We just called him Maki, or sometimes we call him
• 19:50
  Speaker 11: Tubby Winslow.
• 19:52
  Speaker 3: Okay, uh, you're a strange guy. I was Sam.
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: No No.

• 21:12
  Speaker 1: home tonight to do something I haven't done since nineteen
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: ninety nine. I'm gonna watch the Knick's finals game.
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: How about That's Uh, It's unbelievable, it really is. I'm
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: actually going to do my show right now, and it
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: is about fighting. And I got to be honest with you.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: I can't concentrate. I can't muster up the emotion, the passion. Yes,
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: I have such a stomach ache right now, Like I
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: am just perpetually nervous and I can't get enough of
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: all the content. Last night, I was just sitting in
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: bed watching every single press conference, the open workout, looking
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: at them in front of that finals logo. We've been
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: waiting for this. It felt at one point like it
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: was never going to happen again in our lifetime, like
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: they dropped the video with Clyde narrating it. I woke
• 21:58
  Speaker 4: up this morning and I was showing my son that video,
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: and he looked at me. He's like, are you crying?
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: And I'm like, yes, I'm crying. You don't realize you're
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: twelve years old. You don't realize how much we've suffered
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: and what this means to us. I want this so bad,
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: to guys, I can't even describe how badly I want this,
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: and to think that we are just four wins away
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: from As I've said a million times over the past
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: week to friends and family, a lifetime of pain will
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: be erased and a lifetime of angst will be relieved
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: if they can pull this off.
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: Well said, and I really you didn't even mention the
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: image of Patrick Ewing wearing the twenty twenty six finals hat.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: Oh God, Jesus, that broke me.
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: Man, that broke me. There was a moment there at
• 22:37
  Speaker 4: the end of grating Patrick Ewings my favorite accid of
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: all time. I became a Ewing fan in nineteen ninety
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: when I walk into a shoe store as an eight
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: year old, and my older brothers playing a prank on me, say,
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: don't buy those Jordans, buy those shoes, those big, ugly,
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: bulky shoes. Buy the Ewings. And I'm like, all right, sure, guys, right,
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: And then I look him up in a magazine. I'm like,
• 22:57
  Speaker 4: all right, I guess this is my guy. And that's
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: how I fall in love with the ni back in
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: nineteen ninety and Patrick Ewing being my guy. And so
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: when he was on the bench at the end of
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: Game four against the Cavs and they kind of zoomed
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: in on his face and then he puts the hat
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: on and it's Clyde to him to Brunson, it broke me.
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: I think every Nick fan wants this for themselves, but
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: I think they wanted for Patrick. They wanted for John,
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: they wanted for Charles, they wanted for Derek Harper, they
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: wanted for all those guys as well. And then of
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: course Houston and Spree and LJ and Chris Childs and
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: Charlie Ward. There's just so much that goes into this man.
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: And I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: it's just mustering up a lot of emotion right now.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: How many times have you cried during this finals run?
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, oh my, I mean at this point, since
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: we've clinched, it's been on a daily basis, all the videos,
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: all the edits, the highlight reels. I don't I saw
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: a couple of people who I respect, say Nixon seven,
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: and I'm just thinking to myself, I am so nervous
• 23:53
  Speaker 4: before game one. I don't think I'll be able to
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: survive seven games, Like, could you imagine what that's seventh
• 24:00
  Speaker 4: game will feel like? Game Day? I don't know if
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: my body can handle it. I'm being one hundred percent honest.
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: When you played the Rockets in ninety four, like I
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: was twelve years old and I sat in a hotel
• 24:11
  Speaker 4: room in Boston. I'll never forget crying wearing my ewing jersey.
• 24:14
  Speaker 4: But I was twelve years old, like to me, time
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: was infinite. Now I'm staring at at us like I'm
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: not gonna have to wait another twenty seven years to
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: see them again, why I'd even be alive, Like, is
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: this my last chance? And so it feels so much
• 24:25
  Speaker 4: more daunting, it feels so much more heavy at this time,
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: Like that's why I'm praying for a sweep. I know
• 24:32
  Speaker 4: there's no chance for a sweep, but I just kind
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: of want to fast forward, get this over with, and
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: then relive it all knowing how it all ends up.
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: Harry All, I was making the argument to the guys
• 24:42
  Speaker 6: earlier this postseason that Jalen Brunson has changed my life,
• 24:46
  Speaker 6: and they laughed at me. They said it was an overreaction.
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: Do you agree or disagree with that sentiment? For diehard
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: Knicks fans that Jalen Brunson has changed their lives, he
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: has to agree.
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: I mean one million percent. I tweeted on the day
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: they signed him, this is the steal of the century.
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: And every so often after you know it is back
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: in twenty twenty two, every so often after he does
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: something amazing, I go back to that tweet and I
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: just look at the replies. You idiot, you'll regret this
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: classic Nick. What an awful deal, I mean, And honestly
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: like that, I expect this so soon. Man, maybe not,
• 25:22
  Speaker 4: but I knew he was going to be that guy
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: that was just some He's a winner and we saw
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: it in Villanova and the way he conducts himself, the
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: way he conducted himself after Game four against the Cavs.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: There's just so much to like about him. And you know,
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: the connection with his dad and his connection to the
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: Knicks and all that, like, it just felt like there
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: was something magical and so yes, of course, I feel
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: so lucky. I have two boys who are fourteen and twelve,
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: and my two favorite teams are the Knicks and the Bills.
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: And the fact that I've been able to give them
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: Jalen Brudson and Josh Allen as their guys, I feel
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: like it's like the greatest things that I've ever been
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: able to do as a parent.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Yes, I mean these spoiled kids, they haven't been through
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: the difficult times.
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: For either organization. Jesus. I mean, you know, I mean lucky,
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: very lucky, Ariel.
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: They missed it, like they just started to care about
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: sports right once Jalen arrived. And when Josh gets drafted
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: and I'm like you, he said, you have no idea.
• 26:15
  Speaker 4: I mean, like for those two teams, think about this
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: for those two deeps, like the Knicks started to get
• 26:19
  Speaker 4: really bad as of one and then oh one to thirteen,
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: they're a laughing stock. They win one playoff game, they
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: finally win a playoff series in thirteen. The Bills don't
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: make the playoffs. Between ninety nine and seventeen, I mean,
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: it was awful. And oh, by the way, in the
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: midst of all that, my favorite baseball team leaves town.
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: The Montreal Expos them from Montreal, they leave town. That
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: seventeen year stretch was absolutely miserable. My kids waltz in
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: here and they're getting generational run after generational run, and
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: I'm so happy. I don't want them to suffer, because
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: let's be honest, if they were born in like three,
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: they probably would be thunder fans right now or something
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: like that. And that's the last thing I want.
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: I'm bleep at David Sampson. Go ahead, Taylor, Oh.
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I'll get it started on them.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: I'm not I just I said it. You don't have
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: to decay anything. Go ahead.
• 27:04
  Speaker 6: They your kids didn't have to go through the Antonio
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: mcdice trade, the Stefan Marbury Vaseolyne, the Nate Robinson era,
• 27:14
  Speaker 6: the all the bad days they didn't have to watch
• 27:17
  Speaker 6: louum Munson. But do you think any part of you
• 27:20
  Speaker 6: looks back at those years and was like, you know what,
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: it's gonna make this finals run even better?
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: Yes?
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: It hardened you?
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, and no man, because those were some awful years.
• 27:31
  Speaker 4: I mean it was awful. Like I would have gladly
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: taken a ring in two thousand and like I said,
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: be way less anxious here because I said this to
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: my kids, like, if they pulled this off, I don't
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: know if I will care as much. In fact, I
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: think I won't care as much, and I welcome that.
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: I don't want to feel that feeling after every playoff loss,
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: after every series loss, after a random, gut wrenching loss
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: in March. I don't want to care as much. To
• 27:55
  Speaker 4: be honest, I don't want it to dictate my mood
• 27:57
  Speaker 4: as much as it does. And I feel like, and
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: I asked my friends who have seen their teams win
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: a championship, like it changes right, Like you care a
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: little bit less. Yeah, you care a little bit less,
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: and then you get lost in it if they go
• 28:07
  Speaker 4: for a repeat, et cetera, et cetera, and so those
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: years were awful. They were depressing. We were a joke,
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: we were a laughing stock. I didn't really I was there.
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: I watched it. I went to games. I moved to
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: New York. I tried to go as much as I can.
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: I got excited when you know, Porzingis came, when RJ.
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: Barrett came. You know, the lottery was our finals. That's
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: all we had to care about. But I mean, do
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: I wish that we were the Spurs winning you know,
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: five out of six? Yeah? Absolutely, that would have been
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: way cooler.
• 28:35
  Speaker 3: Ariol.
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: We have a great research department here and they came
• 28:38
  Speaker 6: back with that. Your first Knicks game you ever went
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: to Madison Square Garden March of nineteen ninety five, Patrick
• 28:44
  Speaker 6: Ewing scored thirty four in a loss to the SuperSonics.
• 28:49
  Speaker 6: Is that kid going to be in the garden for
• 28:51
  Speaker 6: Game three?
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: First of all, thank you to your research department. Well
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: done to your research department. That's incredible. Thank you nineteen nine,
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: well done. Yes. March eleventh, nineteen ninety five was my
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: first time entering Madison Square Garden. I went to Crosby's,
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: bought my Charles Oakley jersey. I begged my parents for
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: years to take me to a game again. I grew
• 29:15
  Speaker 4: up in Montreal, and some people like are are confused
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: by that. I was never a real big hockey fan.
• 29:21
  Speaker 4: I was. I was a kid who wanted to live
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: in New York because of the Knicks. I was obsessed
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: with all things New York because of the Knicks. And
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: they finally took me to a game. We were sitting
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: fourth to last row up at four hundreds, and Ving
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: had a great game, but they got injured in the
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: fourth quarter and they ended up losing to the SuperSonics.
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: And so I've been lucky enough to go. I was.
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: I was at Game three and nineteen ninety nine against
• 29:43
  Speaker 4: the Hawks, and everyone's chanting Jeff Vang Gundy, Chris Dudley
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: has a great game. I've been to some playoff games
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: this year and previous years as well, and I'm doing
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: everything in my power to be there for Game three.
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: In Game six, my daughter has a school play Game four.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: I'm not gonna I miss it, but it would just
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: be too hard to go from where we live to
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: the garden, so I think that's the right thing to do.
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: But I'm doing everything in my power to secure tickets
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: for three and six, not freebies. I'm not a celebrity,
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: I'm not Shalome, I'm not still there. I just need
• 30:13
  Speaker 4: to be in the building. I don't have those tickets
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: as of now, but I'm going to do everything in
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: my power to be there. And I can't imagine what
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: it's going to be like. And I think you guys
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: can attest to this. It's fun being a fan. It's
• 30:24
  Speaker 4: a hell of a lot more fun when you're able
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: to raise fans to like the team that you grew
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: up liking as well. And so this morning, my twelve
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: year old son, who's in sixth grade, which is the
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: grade that I was in in nineteen ninety four, which
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: is the age that I was in nineteen ninety four,
• 30:40
  Speaker 4: comes downstairs wearing his ewing jersey, and again I cried.
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: I started to get emotional because that was me as
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: a ninety ninety four run. I had two jerseys at
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: the time, youwing and start, and I wore those same
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: two jerseys every single day for the entire run, rotating
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: one other one other. And so for him to pick
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: that one, he's got a town of brunts and a
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: heart and an andob but he picked my guy, number
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: thirty three, the captain, And I'm getting emotional now. Guys again,
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: talk to you about this, but it meant so much
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: to me.
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: No, I'm gonna cry with you. I mean, this is
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: what it's all about. Yes, we have waited our entire lifetime.
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: It's the only thing that unifies that place is this
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: particular basketball team, the New York Knicks, and they've been
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: so lousy for so long. So I understand you getting
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: emotional when your kid comes down.
• 31:26
  Speaker 3: Werry Patrick, you wings Jersey. As crazy as it sounds,
• 31:29
  Speaker 3: I would be weeping just like you. It's crazy.
• 31:32
  Speaker 4: Man.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: I'm so happy for you.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: I'm happy for all of us, but we all recognize
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: this is on it and I'm terrified of what it
• 31:41
  Speaker 4: will feel like if it doesn't go our wall.
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: Think about it.
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: I just stopped.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: No, not today, don't think about it today. Okay, today listen. Today,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: we are four games, four wins away from winning an
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: NBA championship.
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: Don't think about what will.
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: Happen if we don't win those four games. Okay, Let's
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: just be positive, all right.
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: I ask you a question as someone who lives in Miami,
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: and you got to see all those great teams. How
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: much did that hurt you? Because I'm sure you're covering it.
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: You're in the midst of it. We suck in that period,
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: but there's probably an element of jealousy where you're like,
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: am I ever going to experience this? As like is
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: the fan and me ever going to experience what these
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: people are experiencing right now while the Heat are winning.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Extremely jealous during that entire rum with Lebron, with Wade
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: and Bosh. But also keep in mind, I am listen,
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: I'm used to this. It can't get any worse than
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: the Jets. So I am I'm kind of numb to
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: at this point, you know what I'm saying.
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and then it all gets relieved, it all gets released.
• 32:39
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure. I can't. I can't speak on the Jets.
• 32:41
  Speaker 4: I would invite you to root for New York's only
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: football team, as a team that resides in Western New York.
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: I'm just checking off sports boxes right now before I
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: get out of here, you know what I'm saying. And
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: so like the Mets one one, the Islanders they won four.
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: For me, the Knicks have a shot this year. And
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: I have already just said, hey, you know what to
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: go my entire life without the Jets winning a Super Bowl.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: I'm okay with that, as long as the Knicks winted
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: NBA title. And so that's why I'm begging you to
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: remain positive.
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: Okay, I know, I know, I know I have to.
• 33:10
  Speaker 4: I have to. I'm just I'm a pessimistic person. I'm
• 33:14
  Speaker 4: perpetually negative, and I fear the word. I mean, come on,
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: when when all of a sudden we're riding high and
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: you get the tweet, It's like Mitchell Robinson has a
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: broken pinky, and but what what did he do? Is
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: this how it happens? Is it some.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Yesterday I watched, Yes, but fortunately it happened to the
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: guy who doesn't need his hands to play basketball.
• 33:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, so that's what I'm saying, Good things, you play?
• 33:38
  Speaker 4: Will you play? Though? Will he actually be clear to play?
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Can he catch a law? Can he
• 33:43
  Speaker 4: get rebounds? I mean, we need that stuff from him, right,
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: We need him to be somewhat healthy. We can't have
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: someone banging into him and all of a sudden he's out.
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: These are the things I worry about, you know, I
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: worry about about all. Please God bless you know og
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: Ananobi's hamstrings and growings, all those things. Every time he
• 34:01
  Speaker 4: goes up for a layup, I'm praying to the man
• 34:03
  Speaker 4: upstairs to please bless him with the best health in
• 34:05
  Speaker 4: the world. It's just so, it means so much. I
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: try to tell my kids how much this means. My wife,
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: she's been with me since nineteenninety nine. She was sitting
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: right next to me when they lost. And I know,
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: you guys get it. And that's why I'm so happy
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: to be talking to you, Because this feels like a
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: therapy session here. People roll their eyes and make comments,
• 34:24
  Speaker 4: but like, this means so freaking much. And yeah, I
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: just I just think of the happiness that these fifteen
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: men twelve who are playing vast majority nine can bring
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: us in the next you know, how about how about
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: the fact, guys, how about the fact that it was
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: exactly a year ago today that they fired TIBs. Exactly
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: a year ago today they fire TIBs and we become
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: the laughing stock again. Jason Kidd won't come, Billy Thannovan
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: won't come. No one wants the cop. The Knicks did
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: it again. They screwed it up again. And now look
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: at us. Can you hear in New York City? Can
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: you hear it? Do you hear the cops? Hopefully? So?
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: For me? I love you.
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: You are a perfect representation of what everyone, all Knick
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: fans are going through right now. We're all over the place.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: We're emotional. You're praying. Amen, by the way to everything
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: you said, you're praying. I want to have you on.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: I want emotional every hellwana on after every game.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: If possible, we work that out, if you have time
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: for us.
• 35:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's our it's our therapy session. Man,
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: I'd be happy to. I withhold the right if they
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: are losing, crushing loss after crushing loss. I was told
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: the right to upstain from talking. So I'm going to
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: take something different. But I believe can we get what?
• 35:37
  Speaker 4: What do you in your heart of hearts? What are
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: you saying? What are you saying? What's the official prediction?
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: Listen?
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: I have the Knicks in four last series, I said,
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: sweet before the series started. I have the Knicks in five.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: I'm I'm uber confident about this NIXT team. I have
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: the Knicks in five.
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, I'm going at six.
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: No.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: And here's the thing he probably hates us hearing that
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: because he doesn't want us to be so cocky and confident, right.
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: Yes, no, oh no, I want it. I want it.
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: I wanted I saw that stupid dog yesterday picking against them,
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: and I was like, I hate this freaking dog. Like
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: every pick that I see in our favor, it's like,
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: just a little bit more confident. Five would be a dream.
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: Six would be amazing at home. Steal one here, steal
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: one here on the road, and I'll feel a million
• 36:20
  Speaker 4: times better just steal one of these year. And how
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: about the symbolism, guys, how about the symbolism of the
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: stars of that ninety nineteen They're going to be sitting
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: there at msg LJ Spree Houston Ewings. They're going to
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: be sitting there watching our guys hopefully right the wrong
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: of twenty seven years ago. And let's be honest, we
• 36:37
  Speaker 4: had no chance in nineteen ninety nine. It was great
• 36:40
  Speaker 4: just getting there ewing Zinder at Chris Doveley's our starting center.
• 36:43
  Speaker 4: We had no shot. Duncan with generational just starting his run, Robinson,
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: it was destiny for him. This feels much different. This
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: feels much more like ninety four, where it's a toss
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: up and I just pray to God that God, I
• 36:54
  Speaker 4: pray to God that the basketball gods will smile down
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: upon us.
• 36:58
  Speaker 3: Amen the A. Hawane Show.

  Speaker 1: Our Thanks to Lucy Rodein. It was great to see her.
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Great to hear from her.
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: This is an odd place for us to be finishing
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: the show.
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: I have waited since nineteen ninety nine to be able
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: to say I'm going home to watch the next play
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: in an NBA Finals game, and Taylor has been waiting
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: for this his entire life, and yet we end the
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: show today with what the hell did Harris England?
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: Taylor? Harris English the golfer? Yeah, who else?
• 38:05
  Speaker 5: I just want to make sure because I don't think
• 38:06
  Speaker 5: everybody knows who Harris English is.
• 38:08
  Speaker 6: So we have great talent bookers here. Our talent bookers
• 38:12
  Speaker 6: are phenomenal. They got us great guests. Yes, they've been
• 38:15
  Speaker 6: trying to get us more and more PGA golfers.
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: Now let me say this that in the past they've
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: been great with the PGA, and the PGA has been
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: great to us. They got me a Mikey Wyndham Clark
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: a few times, Jordan Speith has been on the show. Like,
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: they've been fantastic. But what happened again with Harris Bleeping English?
• 38:31
  Speaker 6: So we had Harris English booked and then at the
• 38:35
  Speaker 6: last second we got a message from the talent bookers
• 38:37
  Speaker 6: that said Harris English is actually going to pass.
• 38:40
  Speaker 5: And now I'm wait wait, talent bookers just absolutely hung
• 38:45
  Speaker 5: him out to dry and said, hey, this isn't our fault.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: He's the one who's passing. They specified that. Well, that's
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: why they're good talent bookers.
• 38:50
  Speaker 6: So my question for you guys is, who the hell
• 38:53
  Speaker 6: does Harris English?
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: Because he has.
• 38:56
  Speaker 6: Now made an enemy of this show. I will go
• 38:58
  Speaker 6: out of my way to root against Harris English now
• 39:01
  Speaker 6: until the rest of the time, until he makes this
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: right and he comes on this show we've had.
• 39:06
  Speaker 5: So you're saying you've had Wyndham Clark. This is one
• 39:09
  Speaker 5: of the best guys going, right.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: We had Wyndham right after he won the US Opening.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: Yes, you've had Jordan's speech after he won the Masters
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: and has been, you know, one of this country's favorite
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: golfers for the last decade.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: Wow, the homie. Yes, and Harris English decides to pass.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: Does he have another trip to England ahead?
• 39:29
  Speaker 5: Because he sounds like the most euro of British American
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: golfer of all time?
• 39:34
  Speaker 10: Harris English, howbout you change your name to Harris America?
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: Like, honestly, I'm with you, Taylor put it on the poll.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Should Harris English change his name to Harris America?
• 39:45
  Speaker 6: If he doesn't, he hates Amyriica, be glad that anybody
• 39:47
  Speaker 6: wants to talk to you.
• 39:48
