- 2:15Speaker 2: The way the tire buying show to be so our
- 2:18Speaker 2: lead this hour is from pro Bouncy Ball. We'll go
- 2:23Speaker 2: to Boston, a closeout game for the Celtics' opponent at
- 2:29Speaker 2: the Knicks, to advance Jalen Brunson and the Knickerbocker traveling
- 2:34Speaker 2: party going up I ninety five.
- 2:36Speaker 1: Of course, they.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Flew work assignment, work assignment versus Jalen Brown and the
- 2:41Speaker 2: Celtics who are weather beaten without Jason Tatum. It was
- 2:46Speaker 2: game number five, Game five New York with a chance
- 2:51Speaker 2: to level up and play Tyres Hallipburton and the Indiana
- 2:56Speaker 2: basketball team in the Eastern Conference Finals and wake up
- 2:59Speaker 2: the old clip of Reggie Miller from back in the day.
- 3:02Speaker 1: But I'm not sure whether you were watching this or not.
- 3:04Speaker 1: It was the early game on the basketball card. Maybe not.
- 3:08Speaker 2: The story here was Derek White, who had thirty four
- 3:13Speaker 2: points seven seven three point shots through the basket there
- 3:19Speaker 2: to lead the Celtics to eight laffer they win one
- 3:22Speaker 2: twenty seven to one oh two haha.
- 3:25Speaker 1: In Game five against the Knicks on Wednesday.
- 3:28Speaker 2: Night there at the TV Garden Eastern Conference semi Finals,
- 3:33Speaker 2: the Celtics, who could not make a three point shot
- 3:36Speaker 2: in multiple games in this series to save their life,
- 3:39Speaker 2: connected on twenty two twenty two to three pointers to
- 3:44Speaker 2: post their first home victory of the series and the
- 3:48Speaker 2: first without Jason Tatum. Following the snap crackle pop goes
- 3:54Speaker 2: the Achilles the ten in injury there. Now, the better
- 3:57Speaker 2: story is in the losing locker room where Josh Hart
- 4:01Speaker 2: was bloody early in the game. He led the Knicks
- 4:04Speaker 2: with twenty four points. He did leave briefly and that
- 4:09Speaker 2: was in the first quarter. There a bloody gash with
- 4:14Speaker 2: blood all over his face, and that was an omen
- 4:18Speaker 2: of things to come for the Knicks. There an inadvertent
- 4:21Speaker 2: elbow and he bled like a tomato.
- 4:25Speaker 1: So that was part of the story there. The photos
- 4:28Speaker 1: went viral.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson had twenty two, but a very mellow kind
- 4:33Speaker 2: of performance by Brunson there he fouled out, was seven
- 4:36Speaker 2: nineteen to go in the game.
- 4:39Speaker 1: He was out.
- 4:40Speaker 2: So the next do not do the thing they were
- 4:42Speaker 2: supposed to do at the time they were supposed to
- 4:44Speaker 2: do it, And so they will now have another opportunity.
- 4:48Speaker 2: They've got three chances to win one game. Now they
- 4:51Speaker 2: have two chances to win one game. The Knicks will
- 4:53Speaker 2: try to win the series. Back in midtown Manhattan, right
- 4:56Speaker 2: over Penn Station there on Friday, if the Celtics win
- 5:02Speaker 2: Game seven. We love Game seven. I want a Game seven.
- 5:06Speaker 2: I would link, I would Can we make that happen?
- 5:09Speaker 2: We all think positive vibrations. Let's get a Game seven
- 5:12Speaker 2: that would be in Boston on Monday, in Boston on Monday.
- 5:18Speaker 1: So let us discuss the question.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Why couldn't Jalen Brunson's Knicks close out this series?
- 5:27Speaker 1: Why could they not get this done? I've got my
- 5:29Speaker 1: observation of this.
- 5:30Speaker 2: I've got cocktail scrub a dub dub and PSA, and
- 5:35Speaker 2: we will combine all of these things together, and we
- 5:41Speaker 2: are gonna make a dirty water dog, is what We're
- 5:44Speaker 2: gonna make, a street dirty water dog. And that's what
- 5:48Speaker 2: we're gonna do, all right, So number I said Number Yeah,
- 5:58Speaker 2: let's start with the obvious that New York did not
- 6:02Speaker 2: play with the same mojo that they had been playing
- 6:05Speaker 2: with there. They looked I don't know that I would
- 6:09Speaker 2: use the word disheveled, but they were just a little off.
- 6:12Speaker 2: I'm not sure why that was. Some Knickerbocker apologists.
- 6:18Speaker 1: Are saying, well, it was the officials. The NBA wants
- 6:20Speaker 1: us to go to six. They actually wanted to go
- 6:22Speaker 1: to seven. They need a game seven. Blah blah blah
- 6:24Speaker 1: blah blah.
- 6:25Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson sounded like the Uber driver call we took
- 6:29Speaker 2: last hour.
- 6:29Speaker 1: He was very subdued, very subdued.
- 6:32Speaker 2: He was restrained, and several of the Knicks players were
- 6:35Speaker 2: completely frazzled, completely frazzled in this game. We'll get to
- 6:41Speaker 2: them in a minute. But here's Tom Thibodeau. You'll hear
- 6:45Speaker 2: the question and the answer. He's the coach of the NIXT.
- 6:47Speaker 2: Tom Thibodeau on how upsetting this was. Take a listen, Tom,
- 6:55Speaker 2: just off the bat, what most disappointed you tonight?
- 7:00Speaker 3: That we didn't play for forty eight minutes and you
- 7:04Speaker 3: know the start of the second quarter, we didn't play well.
- 7:07Speaker 3: We had a lead, didn't play tough with the lead,
- 7:10Speaker 3: came out to start the third, didn't play well. There
- 7:14Speaker 3: I can't afford to do that.
- 7:16Speaker 2: Okay, so individually mentioned Brunson, who was.
- 7:22Speaker 1: Fine but needed to be better than that. But the
- 7:25Speaker 1: real villain.
- 7:26Speaker 2: There was literally nothing redeeming about Og and Anenoby's performance.
- 7:32Speaker 1: There was nothing redeeming.
- 7:33Speaker 2: Og played like he was Doa, not the old gangster
- 7:39Speaker 2: he was Doa. Played like someone spiked his cocktail with
- 7:43Speaker 2: elephant tranquilizers. He took twelve shots, he missed eleven of them,
- 7:48Speaker 2: shot less than ten percent eight point three percent in
- 7:52Speaker 2: a closeout game, had two assists, two turnovers, and three fouls.
- 7:57Speaker 2: How about Michale Bridges, he said, some bad games, he
- 8:01Speaker 2: saved them with key defensive plays late in games, and
- 8:05Speaker 2: no chance to do that here. Took fourteen shots, missed
- 8:07Speaker 2: ten of them. Missed ten of the fourteen shots he took.
- 8:10Speaker 2: That was a pratt fall performance by mkil Bridges. So
- 8:14Speaker 2: New York led by nine in the second quarter, Tom
- 8:18Speaker 2: Thibodeau referenced that they stopped playing from that point they
- 8:22Speaker 2: were up by nine to the close of the game,
- 8:24Speaker 2: they were outscored by what thirty five points? I believe
- 8:27Speaker 2: it was from that point to the end of the game,
- 8:29Speaker 2: which I.
- 8:30Speaker 1: Don't think is good. What do I know? I just
- 8:32Speaker 1: do the overnight show. I don't think that's good. Maybe
- 8:34Speaker 1: it is.
- 8:35Speaker 2: Maybe there's some kind of positivity. I don't know what
- 8:38Speaker 2: it would be, but who knows? All right now, paytrio
- 8:42Speaker 2: so who was the biggest X factor for Boston Without
- 8:46Speaker 2: Jason Tatum? Other people had to step up as the
- 8:49Speaker 2: line goes, and Jalen Brown was fine or Devin Derek White.
- 8:55Speaker 2: Derek White went bonkers. Derek White was trending. He was silky,
- 9:00Speaker 2: He was the smooth operator with all the three point shots.
- 9:03Speaker 2: He put on a shooting clinic there from behind the arc.
- 9:07Speaker 2: Those moneyballs. Now that said for me, it's scrub a
- 9:12Speaker 2: dub dub Luke Cornet, the scrub. I had to look
- 9:17Speaker 2: this guy up. Who the f is Luke Cornet? Who
- 9:20Speaker 2: is this guy? And he went out had ten points,
- 9:23Speaker 2: nine rebounds, seven block shots.
- 9:26Speaker 1: He went mutumbo, if you're old, you know who that is.
- 9:29Speaker 1: At twenty five minutes and as Shaq would say, I owe.
- 9:32Speaker 2: You an apology. I wasn't really familiar with your game.
- 9:36Speaker 2: May the Force be with you, Luke, force multiplier, the butcher,
- 9:40Speaker 2: the baker, the candlestick maker, and that candlestick keeping hope alive.
- 9:44Speaker 2: The flame of hope is alive, keeping hope alive. And
- 9:47Speaker 2: now Joe Mizzoula gave a bunch of wild soundbites. This
- 9:52Speaker 2: guy is total whack a doodle, Joe Mozula. So, Joe
- 9:55Speaker 2: Mizoula was asked about the mentality for the rest of
- 9:58Speaker 2: the series. He said, four hours ago he said, we
- 10:02Speaker 2: had just one win and we had win one game.
- 10:05Speaker 2: Rather win one game, and now we just have to
- 10:07Speaker 2: win one game. That is known as the old wine
- 10:11Speaker 2: in New bottle. Old wine in New bottle a fancy
- 10:14Speaker 2: way to say, take it one day at a time.
- 10:18Speaker 1: Live in the moment. You must live in the moment now.
- 10:22Speaker 2: The other quote which was hilarious from Joe Mizoula, and
- 10:25Speaker 2: it reminded me of a random NFL coach from years ago.
- 10:30Speaker 2: Joe Missoula was asked about the situation involving Chris stops
- 10:35Speaker 2: for Zingis. Now, Porzingis has been there, but hasn't really
- 10:40Speaker 2: been there because he's got the gobbledee gook and we're
- 10:44Speaker 2: not sure what he has. But it can't be that hard,
- 10:47Speaker 2: it can't be that difficult because he's playing right.
- 10:50Speaker 1: I mean, it's not going to kill you. Whatever it is,
- 10:53Speaker 1: we don't know what it is.
- 10:54Speaker 2: It's not contagious or else he wouldn't be with the team,
- 10:57Speaker 2: so we're not sure about that. But Joe Missoula, well,
- 11:00Speaker 2: I think we have the audience. So listen is Joe Mozoula.
- 11:03Speaker 2: Listen to him talk about Chris tops Porzingis and like
- 11:06Speaker 2: why he wasn't out there and take a listen.
- 11:09Speaker 4: Joe, You've always trusted your core lineup. You don't change
- 11:14Speaker 4: like the main lineup a ton You trust your top players.
- 11:16Speaker 4: So making the switch going away from KP for the
- 11:19Speaker 4: second half, just how difficult of a decision has it been?
- 11:22Speaker 4: Kind of maybe evaluating that throughout the series and then
- 11:24Speaker 4: making that call tonight.
- 11:26Speaker 5: I mean he did, I mean, he couldn't breathe and
- 11:29Speaker 5: you know, so he absolutely necessary and so that was
- 11:33Speaker 5: just a decision between me and him. He was having
- 11:36Speaker 5: just difficulties breathing, but he wanted to be out there.
- 11:39Speaker 5: And you know, if we absolutely needed him, we would
- 11:42Speaker 5: have been able to go to him.
- 11:43Speaker 1: And rely on him.
- 11:44Speaker 5: But you've seen a lot of that this year. Is
- 11:45Speaker 5: changing the lineup at halftime is something that we've done
- 11:47Speaker 5: a lot, you know, this year, because it just adds
- 11:49Speaker 5: a different dimension and can change some sub patterns throughout
- 11:52Speaker 5: the game. So took credit to the guys just buying
- 11:55Speaker 5: into what gives us the best chance to win.
- 11:57Speaker 1: We don't need all that.
- 11:58Speaker 2: The money part of it was he couldn't breathe like
- 12:00Speaker 2: they I don't know who edited that, but that's the
- 12:02Speaker 2: key part.
- 12:03Speaker 1: That he couldn't breathe, which reminded me.
- 12:05Speaker 2: If you've been with the show a long time, you
- 12:07Speaker 2: might remember years ago, the Indianapolis Colts had a coach
- 12:10Speaker 2: named Chuck Pegano and it was a primetime game. Chuck
- 12:15Speaker 2: Pegana was coaching the Colts. I forget the name of
- 12:18Speaker 2: the quarterback. The quarterback played but wasn't supposed to play,
- 12:22Speaker 2: and so after the game Pegano said he was literally
- 12:27Speaker 2: on his deathbed.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Is what the coach said, I'll never forget that.
- 12:32Speaker 2: It was literally under Now you have Joe Mozula saying
- 12:34Speaker 2: Porzingis couldn't breathe. So I went back and I looked
- 12:40Speaker 2: at the clip. I did not see any oxygen. I
- 12:43Speaker 2: did not see any oxygen for Forzingis.
- 12:46Speaker 1: So if a man can't breathe, you need oxygen.
- 12:50Speaker 2: Fortunately, we can't report he has not died despite not
- 12:53Speaker 2: being able to breathe.
- 12:54Speaker 1: Okay, final point. Here is literally deathbed. Oh there it is.
- 12:58Speaker 1: That's it.
- 12:59Speaker 2: That's Chuck PEGANA No, no, that's what. Do we know
- 13:01Speaker 2: what year that was? That's got to be old. Now,
- 13:04Speaker 2: that's a long time that two fourteen.
- 13:09Speaker 6: Wow, man, That'srson wentz was it?
- 13:14Speaker 1: No?
- 13:15Speaker 2: I think it was a hassleback or something, one of
- 13:17Speaker 2: the hassleback guys.
- 13:19Speaker 1: I don't, I guess. Look up quarterbacks for the Colson
- 13:22Speaker 1: twenty fourteen.
- 13:22Speaker 7: Wow.
- 13:23Speaker 1: It's been eleven years since that sound bite. I still
- 13:25Speaker 1: remember it. Wow.
- 13:26Speaker 2: All right, final point, so let's get to the New
- 13:29Speaker 2: York side of things. Is this loss by the Knickerbockers.
- 13:33Speaker 2: Is this loss an anomaly for Tom Thibodeau's Tom Thibodeau,
- 13:38Speaker 2: Tom Thibodeau his New York squad or a sign of
- 13:42Speaker 2: penning doom. So is this loss an anomaly for New York?
- 13:45Speaker 2: Or is this a sign of pending doom?
- 13:49Speaker 3: No?
- 13:49Speaker 2: I love, absolutely love sky is falling Talk Radio.
- 13:56Speaker 1: I love it to me.
- 13:57Speaker 2: This is a public service announcement. It's an old school
- 14:01Speaker 2: public service announcement from the International Association of Fire Chiefs.
- 14:06Speaker 2: Don't play with matches. You're playing with matches.
- 14:08Speaker 1: The Knicks are futzing around with matches, and in this case,
- 14:12Speaker 1: they're playing with their food. You keep hope alive for
- 14:16Speaker 1: the Celtics. You're keeping hope alive. The series has already
- 14:20Speaker 1: been handed to New York. You're up three to one.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Tatum goes down. You're up three to one.
- 14:28Speaker 2: So if you look at our audio, we don't have
- 14:31Speaker 2: a telestrator because we're on radio, even though there's a
- 14:34Speaker 2: camera in here. But if you look at the audio straighter,
- 14:37Speaker 2: game six becomes do or die. Game six becomes don't
- 14:42Speaker 2: poop your pants. Game six becomes a diaper game. You
- 14:46Speaker 2: mess that up, And I would refer you to the chart.
- 14:49Speaker 2: F around and find out chart. I've got it right
- 14:51Speaker 2: up here. F around and find out.
- 14:53Speaker 1: For now, things are okay.
- 14:55Speaker 2: That's one game, it doesn't matter, but it sets the foundation.
- 15:00Speaker 2: It sets the foundation that game okay, and even in
- 15:04Speaker 2: defeat like the next, they seem to be in fine
- 15:07Speaker 2: spirits and all that didn't seem to have worked off.
- 15:10Speaker 2: There was one moment I saw this clip making the
- 15:13Speaker 2: rounds on the socials at the Garden there in Boston.
- 15:16Speaker 2: After Jalen Brunson had fouled out. They put him on
- 15:20Speaker 2: the jumbo tron and he waved to the crowd and
- 15:23Speaker 2: it was hilarious because he's on the scoreboard and somebody
- 15:26Speaker 2: took this video from the upper deck and so you
- 15:29Speaker 2: see Brunson sitting on the Knicks bench, but you can
- 15:31Speaker 2: see it through the scoreboard and he's waving.
- 15:34Speaker 1: At the crowd. It was pretty funny.
- 15:36Speaker 2: And they had a watch party in Manhattan.
- 15:40Speaker 1: A bunch of Nick lap dogs were.
- 15:43Speaker 2: Out there and they were chanting, but they originally channing
- 15:45Speaker 2: or they're gonna win. And then they moved to Nixon six.
- 15:48Speaker 2: With the series now headed back to Madison Square Garden
- 15:51Speaker 2: on Friday night, you blow that and then it's a
- 15:55Speaker 2: do or die Game seven in Boston, and that puts
- 16:01Speaker 2: the Knicks on notice, choking dog notice, choking dog notice.
- 16:10Speaker 1: And despite having some family that like the Knicks, I look.
- 16:16Speaker 2: At this as an opportunity. If the Knicks can blow
- 16:19Speaker 2: this on Friday. How awesome it would be to see
- 16:24Speaker 2: Tracy Morgan go out there and give a pep talk
- 16:28Speaker 2: to the Knicks before Game seven and then watch them
- 16:31Speaker 2: go out and projectile vomit like Tracy Morgan does at
- 16:34Speaker 2: Knicks games all over the court in a game seven.
- 16:37Speaker 2: So I and those other celebrities on Celebrity Row and
- 16:40Speaker 2: all that, man, that would be fun to watch all
- 16:42Speaker 2: them cry, Oh.
- 16:43Speaker 1: God, that would be cool me and when I love that?
- 16:45Speaker 8: All right?

- 19:26Speaker 2: Celtic Nicks monologue as the Celtics avoid elimination, they stay alive,
- 19:34Speaker 2: staying alive, stay alive, and they do it with some
- 19:37Speaker 2: rasmataz when going away.
- 19:40Speaker 10: A lie's alive.
- 19:44Speaker 1: It What does it all mean? What does it all mean?
- 19:50Speaker 1: We'll find out sooner enough.
- 19:52Speaker 2: Coming up later this hour, a big sports star taking
- 19:55Speaker 2: a shot at the Cosmos and indirectly involves this show.
- 20:01Speaker 2: Indirectly involves this show. We'll explain what that's all about.
- 20:06Speaker 2: And also I think I might have a gig for Coop.
- 20:10Speaker 2: I'll explain what that's all about. We'll take your calls
- 20:14Speaker 2: coming up. Also on the X Machine. As we have
- 20:18Speaker 2: mentioned many times, you can find us on there.
- 20:21Speaker 1: And that is at Ben Mallor. That's at Ben Mallory.
- 20:25Speaker 2: And Enzo did say he will be at the Malor
- 20:28Speaker 2: Meet and Greet in Vancouver two weeks. I can't believe
- 20:32Speaker 2: it's only two weeks away. Lorena's informed me she's gonna
- 20:37Speaker 2: be there, so we're a couple of weeks away from that.
- 20:40Speaker 2: It's gonna be a fun event. It's in Vancouver on
- 20:44Speaker 2: a Thursday night, so this is our Thursday show. So
- 20:48Speaker 2: two weeks from today, what do we say, like six
- 20:51Speaker 2: thirty seven o'clock until ten. I'm flying in that day,
- 20:54Speaker 2: we're all flying in. I got a little later flight,
- 20:56Speaker 2: So it depends on how all that goes. There's no hiccups,
- 21:01Speaker 2: I'll be there as early as possible. If there are hiccups,
- 21:04Speaker 2: well that becomes problematic. That becomes problematic. So anyway, that'll
- 21:09Speaker 2: be the night of the event. The Big Mallard Meet
- 21:11Speaker 2: and Greet. Details are on the social media, not on
- 21:14Speaker 2: X but you can find them on my Instagram page.
- 21:18Speaker 2: There's a video clip that was posted a couple of
- 21:20Speaker 2: days ago. Ben Maller on Fox also on the Facebook
- 21:24Speaker 2: page Ben Mahlor Show. That's Ben Mallor's show. Now, I
- 21:28Speaker 2: could give you the information, but most people that listen
- 21:31Speaker 2: to the to.
- 21:32Speaker 1: The to the radio audio.
- 21:34Speaker 2: Are not able to just write stuff down and remember
- 21:37Speaker 2: all that and you know the whole because we got
- 21:39Speaker 2: to and it's it's it can be confusing.
- 21:44Speaker 1: And I can give you the name of the venue
- 21:46Speaker 1: if you want, you can google it. Just just google it.
- 21:49Speaker 1: That's all you have to just google it and then
- 21:51Speaker 1: you'll you'll be good to go.
- 21:53Speaker 2: I guess we probably should give out the name, right Loreen.
- 21:55Speaker 2: I mean, that would be the proper thing to do.
- 21:57Speaker 2: That would be the adult thing to do.
- 21:59Speaker 1: Yeah, all right. So the actual meet and greet that
- 22:01Speaker 1: we're doing, and we hope to have another event. Right now,
- 22:03Speaker 1: we only have one event.
- 22:05Speaker 2: Maybe we'll just get everyone that shows up and we'll
- 22:07Speaker 2: do something else that weekend.
- 22:08Speaker 1: I don't know, you know how many people.
- 22:11Speaker 2: Are gonna be there, who knows, Maybe to be packed,

- 23:17Speaker 2: like a couple of years there. They were terrible. They
- 23:19Speaker 2: were so bad, the Vancouver Grizzlies. Holy crap, did they suck.

- 24:18Speaker 8: there right now, I'm trying to walk to my friends.
- 24:20Speaker 8: I'm on the road walking. But would you believe how
- 24:24Speaker 8: far your voice hold my phone can carry in the
- 24:27Speaker 8: darkness of the rural foot Florida, thousands of yards. I
- 24:31Speaker 8: got people at the Interstate inn like you put the
- 24:35Speaker 8: interest to the state calling me telling he's to that
- 24:37Speaker 8: I'm not represented to state very well. So I want

- 24:42Speaker 8: I'm a bit anxious to be awaiting hopefully they're on
- 24:45Speaker 8: the show, on a.
- 24:50Speaker 1: Show, Lorenda. What did they say?
- 24:54Speaker 6: Well, I think he was saying, Ben that he's walking
- 24:57Speaker 6: on a deserted road and that your voice is traveling
- 24:59Speaker 6: very far on speed. That's exactly what he said.
- 25:01Speaker 2: What about the end of that, though, I couldn't understand
- 25:05Speaker 2: the end part like he started going off on a
- 25:07Speaker 2: tangent there at the end that's.
- 25:13Speaker 1: Hey, hey, Jed, do you call Glenn Becker? Only me?
- 25:17Speaker 8: I called Glen back the radio guys. I called you
- 25:19Speaker 8: a radio like giving god, Well, I know you called
- 25:21Speaker 8: me a guy.
- 25:21Speaker 1: I was very kind of you to do that. I
- 25:22Speaker 1: appreciate that Glenn has been been doing this a long time.
- 25:26Speaker 1: But do you actually call his show? Does he take calls?
- 25:28Speaker 1: I don't know does he?
- 25:31Speaker 8: I am not trying to around because my cousin's life
- 25:32Speaker 8: hold of the houses. All that they do take calls, they
- 25:35Speaker 8: take calls or not. It's hardly get into those lines
- 25:37Speaker 8: and it is yours. I don't know why they is
- 25:39Speaker 8: whether it stay until lett me you have hours, or
- 25:41Speaker 8: whether it's the nationally syndicated radio all the time.
- 25:44Speaker 6: Yeah, you can't you believe that?
- 25:46Speaker 1: What's that? What's that?
- 25:48Speaker 6: It's harder to get into that show.
- 25:51Speaker 1: Oh, the Glenn Beck Show.
- 25:52Speaker 8: Yeah, it's a confusion of entertainment and enlightenment. You don't
- 25:56Speaker 8: have a fusion of anything you do. You got the
- 25:58Speaker 8: fusion of clippers and sucking.
- 26:01Speaker 1: I forget what I feel. Thank you, thank you, Jay
- 26:05Speaker 1: go away. All right, let's go to Bobby and Illinois. Hello, Bobby, welcome.
- 26:10Speaker 10: Hey man, I called yesterday, told me to call back,
- 26:13Speaker 10: so I'm calling you back. I told Coop I'm a
- 26:17Speaker 10: conspiracy guy, but I don't know if you could really
- 26:19Speaker 10: call a conspiracy with us right in front of your face.
- 26:22Speaker 10: What's going on in the NBA is the atrocity first,
- 26:26Speaker 10: the lottery fixing that, now this game to make sure
- 26:30Speaker 10: to get back to New York.
- 26:31Speaker 8: This is awful.
- 26:32Speaker 10: It is really bad.
- 26:34Speaker 8: It's it's terrible.
- 26:35Speaker 2: But well, Bobby, the conspiracy to extend the series or
- 26:41Speaker 2: did you see Draymond Green got fined for mouthing about
- 26:45Speaker 2: the point spread the other day. That would feed into
- 26:48Speaker 2: your conspiracy theory, right, that the NBA is so sensitive
- 26:51Speaker 2: about the perception that all this is rigged that they
- 26:56Speaker 2: find Draymond Green fifty thousand dollars for questioning the integrity
- 27:00Speaker 2: of the game officials. He was referring to the point
- 27:03Speaker 2: spread in a previous game in this series. At the
- 27:07Speaker 2: at the end there were I guess a late foul
- 27:10Speaker 2: call or whatever, and he was mouthing the point spread,
- 27:13Speaker 2: and so that that upset. But I promise you the
- 27:17Speaker 2: NBA does not want like Oklahoma City and Indiana in
- 27:20Speaker 2: the finals. They do not want that. That's not what
- 27:22Speaker 2: they want. They do not need that. That would not
- 27:24Speaker 2: be good for business.
- 27:27Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, yeah, I got all On another note, I
- 27:31Speaker 7: got some sad news or report. Uh vamb committed suicide
- 27:35Speaker 7: on my truck tonight, but uh I'm still moving.

- 38:18Speaker 3: Right?
- 38:18Speaker 1: Here we go, here, we go here to third degree.
- 38:26Speaker 1: It's la la la la.
- 38:29Speaker 11: Cool Ben just Steelers defensive end Cam Hayward recently said
- 38:35Speaker 11: on his podcast that the Steelers could be a better
- 38:38Speaker 11: team because of the George Pickens trade. He pointed to
- 38:40Speaker 11: Mike Tomlin's track record of trading receivers and it working
- 38:44Speaker 11: out better for the Steelers.
- 38:45Speaker 6: Ben, do you think he's right with this one?
- 38:48Speaker 3: Uh?
- 38:48Speaker 1: Well, here's the way I'll say.
- 38:50Speaker 2: The argument is additioned by subscriber by substraction.
- 38:53Speaker 1: Right, you're upside down. It shouldn't work that way.
- 38:56Speaker 2: That George Pickens is a talented player, and that if
- 38:59Speaker 2: you just look at the trade, it's it's lopsided for Dallas.
- 39:03Speaker 2: But this is an erratic person. This is somebody who
- 39:06Speaker 2: does not show up every game, and he's got a
- 39:09Speaker 2: lot of blotches on his resume. The way I look
- 39:11Speaker 2: at it, the Steels are gonna be fine. Aaron Rodgers
- 39:13Speaker 2: will be there. They'll be about where there they always
- 39:16Speaker 2: are in Pittsburgh. I don't think they'll be better. They'll
- 39:18Speaker 2: be about where they have been. Next where they'll be
- 39:20Speaker 2: gonna win nine to ten games, and that's that.
- 39:22Speaker 1: Next.
- 39:23Speaker 11: Bruce Arians made a radio appearance this week where he
- 39:25Speaker 11: said that if the Bucks stay healthy, that reaching the
- 39:27Speaker 11: Super Bowl is definitely obtainable. Ben, do you think Tampa
- 39:30Speaker 11: Bay has improved enough to take the next step this season?
- 39:33Speaker 2: Bruce Arians is full of crap, because no one stays healthy.
- 39:37Speaker 2: The injury rate in the NFL's Hudder sent. So if
- 39:40Speaker 2: the Buccaneers path to get into the super Bowl is
- 39:42Speaker 2: one hundred percent health, they're not going to the super Bowl.
- 39:45Speaker 2: Everyone has injuries. You've got to have depth, You've got
- 39:48Speaker 2: to overcome the injuries. So anytime I hear someone say, well,
- 39:51Speaker 2: if they stay healthy, of course that's not the contest.
- 39:55Speaker 1: Next.
- 39:56Speaker 11: Shaq said in a recent interview that he thinks he
- 39:58Speaker 11: may have won more titles with any Hardaway than he
- 40:00Speaker 11: did with Kobe had Penny not gotten injured.
- 40:03Speaker 6: Ben do you agree with that.
- 40:05Speaker 1: Well, again we go back to, you know, in the multiverse.
- 40:08Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a dimension in the multiverse where Penny Hardaway
- 40:12Speaker 2: is amazing and people thought he was going to be
- 40:15Speaker 2: some better at the time, and then Kobe ever would
- 40:17Speaker 2: turn out to be. But I think Shack is blowing
- 40:19Speaker 2: smoke on a podcast.
- 40:20Speaker 1: How do we do?
- 40:21Speaker 6: You passed this edition?
- 40:22Speaker 1: That is a way put it on the court. I
- 40:24Speaker 1: won the game the right up. I won the game,
- 40:27Speaker 1: StEB new Balls, I'm a winner.
