• 0:26
  Speaker 1: him to death, but you never know. He is so strange.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: You never know what story from Dan Byer is gonna
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: make asy perk up and get excited. And somehow when
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: Dan announce lifetime bands for certain San Antonio fans is
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: he was outraged.
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: Talk about big talk. There's no way you can keep
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: up a lifetime band. So this guy that ran on
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: the court, he's probably in his twenties. You're telling me
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: that fifty years from now, when this guy wants to
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: go to a Spurs game, that Dan is still gonna
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: be on. He's you know how many crazy things are
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: gonna happen in this world over the next years, and
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: he's gonna go to a Spurs game And said, no, no, no,
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: you tried to take.
• 1:03
  Speaker 4: A selfie one time, get out of here.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: This guy's gonna go to another game, lifetime band get
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: out of here, right.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: But you have him going to games when he's seventy something,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: which I agree with you on.
• 1:12
  Speaker 4: He'll look different. No one's gonna know, but I think
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: he'll probably end up going to a game when he's
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: like thirty something.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: I don't think a lifetime I think he can show
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: up to tomorrow night, can get into the game.
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: All right, one nothing, that's fine. I put it in
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: a blaze where you can't one up me. I have
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: him gone to the next game.
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: Well, there's people doing interviews with Maxison on news stations,
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: so you could go anyway.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: This guy could go anyway.
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: Guys, Just an update on that story. The NBA actually
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: wanted to give him a penalty of forcing him to
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: go to regular season games, but they needed it too harsh,
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: so they just said lifetime ban, which would include playoffs.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: Thank you, Dan, I always a good information. Yes, tailors
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: in a very good mood. Today. The Nicks are up
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: one game to nothing. I'll sleep in by ten. That
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: was not their a game.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: It was like a bnus C plus game. They played
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: well in the second half. They trailed by double digits
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: in the third quarter, and I feel like a lot
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: of people here is he and you could kind of
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: shed some light on just how good Carl Anthony Towns
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: was last night.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: But I feel like there's an entire city, well mainly.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: The host at wfan who owe that man in apology
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: and maybe someone on our staff who owes that man
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: in apology.
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: But we'll get to that in a second.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Carl Anthony Towns does not get the credit that he deserves.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: And man, did he play well as Ricardo does Ricardo.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Carl Anthony Towns.
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: And this is the one thing I was worried about
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: going into the.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: Series, right in a level of playoffs he hasn't played
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: before against this guy who's supposed to be the next
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: great everything in Victor Wimbinyama, that maybe Carl will sort
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: of revert back to his you know ways from early Minnesota,
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: where it was like clearly nervous and fouling a lot
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: and not making shots and not being aggressive and whining
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: about nonfouls and every anything else. What he did yesterday
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: was seem like the most comfortable player on the floor.
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: It didn't matter where he was, right if Victor was
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: checking him on the perimeter. I'm just going to drive
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: right past you. If you know Victor is sort of
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: playing that zone between me and Josh Hart. If he
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: out goes out to contest Josh Hart, I'm just gonna
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: go get this offensive rebound and put it back in.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: He seemed very calm, very just comfortable with what was
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: going on, and which is crazy because it's a product
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: of the offense that basically changed during the postseason. Yes, so, yeah,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Carl Anthony Towns was fantastic yesterday and deserves all the
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: credit for that game that Jalen closed out for him.
• 3:34
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and is he Wemby was two of twelve with
• 3:37
  Speaker 6: kat as his primary defender. He shoots sixteen point six
• 3:40
  Speaker 6: percent in those situations. My favorite play of the game
• 3:44
  Speaker 6: wen Bin Yama in the corner off the side of
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: the backboard.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Here's what's gonna happen with Wemby because it's already started, right.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: We marveled at him in the Western Conference finals, throughout
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: these playoffs, face of the league, future of the league,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: and now everyone's saying he needs to bulk up, and
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: he needs to get inside an inside game and get
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: himself inside the paint because he's playing too far away
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: from the basket.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: Well, it's definitely true and we've been We mentioned it yesterday, Like.
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: That's the one thing that he needs to actually work
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: on is the typical big man stuff, Right, Hey, get
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: in the post, have a good go to shot, you know,
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: just copy the Tim Duncan Banker just whatever. You're gonna
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: be able to get that shot off more easily than
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: every other player in the league just because of your height.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: The problem with him is he can't maintain his position
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: in the post. You can just push him out and
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: it doesn't have to be another big guy like Karl
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: Anthony Towns. It could be somebody like oh g Annobi
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: or even an Alex Caruso from the last series. So
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: that's where he needs to bulk up.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: By fear is that the things that we marvel about
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: as it relates to Wemby are the things that he
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: could do.
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: And he looks like Steph Curry when he does that.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: And now you want to stick him inside the paint
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: with a skyhook like every other big man we've ever seen,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: you know.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: But that's the whole point, right, So he's almost working backwards.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: He's taking and perfer affecting the skills on the perimeter,
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: if you will, that things that make him such an alien,
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: and then he will turn back to the things that
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: make a traditional big guy good. But I think, I
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: think at this point like we've already seen what he
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: can do on the perimeter.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Sure, we've seen him. That shot looks pure, it looks natural.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: We know he has it, is what I say.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: And yes, there are certain things he can work on
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: still on that part of his game, like driving, you know,
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: avoiding people reaching in and being able to strip that ball.
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: But at the very least, when you need a calming
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: presence out there, you need somebody or him near the
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: bucket and just something that you understand is a go
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: to for him, and he just doesn't have it yet,
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: which is wild because he's still four wins away from
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: a championship.
• 5:39
  Speaker 7: Is he?
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: Brunton made eight baskets from within ten feet last night,
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: which ties the most by any player against the Spurs
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: in the playoffs this season. If you just looked at
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: Jalen Brunton's shot chart and Victor wenbin Yama's shot chart,
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: you would not be able to tell which one of
• 5:53
  Speaker 6: them was six foot two and which one of them
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: was seven foot four.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: Shout out Tom Havistow for showing those shots.
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: You tried to do it without credit to Tom Hamshaw
• 6:02
  Speaker 6: deserves credit for shot charts.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: I wasn't criticizing you. I'm proud of you. You took
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: his work and you made it your own, and I'd
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: be proud of you.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: To be honest, I really only credited him because he's
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: been on the show and he's our friend.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: If it was somebody else, I'd be like, yeah, go.
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Ahead, Taylor, that's the hell of a stat But how
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: do you feel about that Brunton getting inside, getting wherever
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: he wants basically, and playing closer to the basket than
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: a guy who was seven to four.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: So there was a play early on that sort of
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: told you what the Knick's mentality was when it came
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: to Victor Wembinyama, Taylor, tell me if you remember this one,
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Josh Hart early on, driving in tries to give him
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: a little shoulder and then go up for a layup
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: and Victor sent it, and it's like, at least they're
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: not afraid. In the end, that was one of three.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: It was only three blocks. It was only three blocks,
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: which is crazy to say about somebody. But it was
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: only three blocks from Victor, and so Jalen is not
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: going to shy away from getting to his spot. What
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: he's trusting is that their offense is designed in a
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: way that when I get to my spot, Victor won't
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: be quite as close, and so I can still operate
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: as normal.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: And if you remember a lot of you know, you're
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: not going to check.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: The tape, But if you go back and check the
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: tape and look at some of those atos the aftertime
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: out plays for the thunder, Basically, they just found a
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: way to get Shay on a side of the floor
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: where Victor is not make one move and boom, He's
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: got his classic mid range jumper. And so I think
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: Jalen saw that and says, Okay, I don't need to
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: be afraid of Victor Wimbinyama this entire series. I can
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: go ahead and you know, get into the paint and
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: try to find my shot and if it's not there,
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: get off of it.
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: But he's not avoiding it altogether.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Taylor hates win probability, so do I, by the way,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: and I am wondering what happened inside Taylor's household when
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: in the third quarter. With about six minutes ago in
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: the third quarter, ESPN flashed up ABC did that the
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: Spurs had a ninety four point one wind probability.
• 7:46
  Speaker 6: I respect so much. How wrong the win probability is.
• 7:49
  Speaker 6: Consistently the win probability doesn't take into account heart.
• 7:54
  Speaker 7: Yes, not Josh Hart, Yes, but yes.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: We have never celebrated a guy more who went one
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: for five from the field than we are today with
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: Josh Hart.
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: It's amazing.
• 8:04
  Speaker 6: Anyway, this next team has no quit right now after
• 8:08
  Speaker 6: that comeback, we're renaming everything. You go to a bodega,
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: you order a brunts and egg and cheese. There talks
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: to rebuild the statue of Liberty, get that French thing
• 8:16
  Speaker 6: out of there and replace it with the statue of
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: Brunson where he's doing his three point celebration. It is
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: poetic that Jalen Brunson has that type of performance in
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: the NBA Finals, in the building that Becky Hammond's jersey
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: hangs from the rafter after she continues to double down
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: on how wrong she has been about him.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Yes, if the win probability is ninety four point one percent,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: the other team on the other side of that has
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: your right where you want where they want.
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: You did come out exactly how I wanted.
• 8:45
  Speaker 7: But you, guys, we knew exactly.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: What you meant.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: Speaking of things not coming out the way that you wanted,
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: there were a couple of players who had a huge
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: impact in this game that we haven't mentioned yet. One
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: was Josh Hart. The other one we did mention it
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: was Karl Anthony Towns. Jalen Brunton, your boy Taylor A
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: plus six and the plus minus Carl Anthony Towns a
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: plus fourteen, Josh harta plus twenty two. Karl Anthony Towns.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: I was saying earlier, how comfortable he looks. He looks
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: like he's ready to win a championship, which I wouldn't
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: have said, you know, predicted about a week ago.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: And Taylor Stugatz.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, was not as confident about his boy Karl Anthony Towns. No, No,
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: quite recently, right.
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: No.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: In fact, we played a game called close your Eyes.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: We all played it. We'll play back that sound right now,
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: and Taylor, when we play it.
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: You should close your ears.
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so everybody knows what the eye test is. This
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: is the close your eyes test. The knicks don't pass
• 9:35
  Speaker 6: it for me. Close your eyes and picture Karl Anthony
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: Town's winning an NBA title.
• 9:39
  Speaker 7: You can't. Did Front Sports already develop an AI tailor, Taylor.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: I think James Dolan could use that to keep you
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: out of MSCHI for life, for a life.
• 9:53
  Speaker 6: So you guys are doing this as some kind of gotcha.
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: I've said repeatedly Knicks fans, we're allowed to say anything
• 10:00
  Speaker 6: about our guys.
• 10:01
  Speaker 7: There are guys.
• 10:02
  Speaker 6: So if a Knicks fan comes to me and says, hey,
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: you know what, Cat's kind of soft, I look at
• 10:06
  Speaker 6: him and I'm like, yeah, he's kind of got to
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: get that figured out. If a Spurs fan comes to
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: me and says Cat's soft, it's on site.
• 10:11
  Speaker 7: You can catch these hands.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: Now, So you have to.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: If you're playing the close your Eyes game, right and
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: you're a Knicks fan, you always have to see the
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: possibility of a championship. It's the close your eyes game.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: It's anything as possible and you couldn't see it.
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: Yes you can. I am not certain.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: I am not certain there's anyone who wants this more
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: than Taylor, and I'm including the players on the Knicks.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: But this is how confident Taylor was again during a
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: game of Close your Eyes, which he can play, but
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: Spurs fans can't.
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: But let's hear it again.
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so everybody knows what the eye test is. This
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: is the close your eyes test. The Knicks don't pass
• 10:46
  Speaker 6: it for me. Close your eyes and picture Karl Anthony
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: Town's winning an NBA title.
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: You can't. I can't hear that enough.
• 10:54
  Speaker 6: So Stu, Stu is doing this thing where he's trying
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: to pile on. What he's conveniently leaving out is that
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: clip was shortened because the next couple of seconds. These
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: are the next couple of seconds.
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: Let me close my eyes and imagine it. Hold on
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: a second. Okay, he's right, you got me. But I
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: was supporting a teammate there, That's all I was doing.
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: I didn't want you to feel alone. Man.
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: Also, God forbid a fan shows a little bit of
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: vulnerability around here. Everybody's just gonna jump on me the
• 11:24
  Speaker 6: second I just voice a slight concern.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: You've been jumping on me since the start of the playoffs,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: claiming I'm not a real Knicks fan because I haven't
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: been around.
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: For the last decade.
• 11:33
  Speaker 6: You missed the Damon Dotson You missed the Damon Dotson days.
• 11:37
  Speaker 6: You really ought to be there.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: I gotta be honest.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: When I closed my eyes, I could see it, but
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: I didn't want to bail on you.
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: I wanted to support my teammate. That's what we're supposed
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: to do around.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: I'm just gonna say this, Taylor, if you if the
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: Knicks go on and win and you get your championship
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: T shirt and it's got all the players on it,
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: You're gonna have to just put an X over Karl
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: Anthony Towns.
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: Face or like shade of it in black because you
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: can picture it. I'm picture it.
• 11:56
  Speaker 7: I'm a big cat guy, all right.
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: He's got three dogs. We need more, doll.

  Speaker 1: not just Ariel, myself included. And let's play back some
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: sound from the first segment of the show when we
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: were talking about win probabilit if the wind probability is
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: ninety four point one percent. The other team on the
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: other side of that has your right.
• 13:05
  Speaker 4: Where you want it. They want you. I think you
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: nailed it.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: You guys knew when I was going everybody knew what
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: you were saying. Yes now I maintain that. For an update,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: anchor is he and we'll get to the French Open
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: at just a second. An odd topic to get to
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: the day after the Knicks go up one game to
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: the Pure But I always say, for an update, anchor Dan,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: how do you feel about the Grand Slams, the Majors?
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: Because you have to pronounce a bunch.
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: Of names that for the remainder of the year you'll
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: never have to pronounce again.
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: I mean, so we've avoided the topic entirely today. If
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: that gives you, that gives you any sort of sense.
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: Towards it, I'm sorry to do this to you, but
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: we just did it to me, so.
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: Everyone's open to it. All right, this is Dan yesterday.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: I'm listening. I don't wear toes around here. I'm gonna
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: take my headsets off. I don't want to hear it.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: I'm going to close my ears because I felt bad
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: for him, because I have done this as well, and
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: it was way worse. But let's play the sound from
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: yesterday's update with Dan telling us about what's going on at.
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: The French Open and women stop seed all right, Arianna Sebolenka,
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: Arena Sebolenka.
• 14:14
  Speaker 8: I didn't throw on them a I bad.
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: That's the easy was.
• 14:18
  Speaker 8: I realized that I don't. I don't want to say I.
• 14:22
  Speaker 5: Don't know where that came from, and I don't want
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: to make any excuses. But it is a name that
• 14:27
  Speaker 5: I've said often, and they've said often correctly, just not yesterdays.
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: The first name.
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: It's just you don't say it all the time. You
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: say Sablanca easy, but it's just the arena stut. When
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: your ears were closed, could you picture Karl Anthony Town's
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: winning an NBA championship.
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: Let's play that sound one more time.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: This is confident Nick Fan Taylor, so confident in the
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: next that when he closed his eyes he just couldn't
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: see it.
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so everybody knows what the eye test is. This
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: is the close your eyes test. The Knicks don't pass
• 14:52
  Speaker 6: it for me. Close your eyes and picture Karl Anthony
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: Town's winning an NBA title.
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: You can't.
• 14:59
  Speaker 5: Sa forever, but if you if you play mine again,
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: you can literally feel my.
• 15:07
  Speaker 8: Crap, what road are we going down?
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: Like? They would like to play? Yeah? I again? Yeah,
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: please do.
• 15:14
  Speaker 8: Or not don't?
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: I would like that, I said, when you start all right,
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: Arianna Cebalinka, arena Seblenca.
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: Well, so I have a theory on this.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Were you thinking about the last name and therefore you
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: butchered the first name or were you thinking about other
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: tennis names you had to pronounce later on?
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: And honestly, I didn't know if Ariel Haljane's uh like
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: he was right after?
• 15:42
  Speaker 8: You know, the show. So I'm like, do I have
• 15:44
  Speaker 8: you know air?
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: Is it Ariel is ariol And there was a y
• 15:48
  Speaker 5: in it so but it's uh, yeah, it's all right now, it's.
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: Good for today. You can just go Bomani Helwani got.
• 15:55
  Speaker 5: To you know what I'm gonna do though, the secret
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: and yeah, you have to spell it out in a
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: certain way. I'm just going to write arena like you know,
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: the American Airlines arena for now on.
• 16:06
  Speaker 8: When I do it. That's just going to be the
• 16:08
  Speaker 8: easier way to do it.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: But if Bow and Ario want to do a podcast,
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: yeah that's called Bomani Howani I need.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: He's been on this the entire day and he thinks
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: it's a good idea, and it is, but they're never
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: going to do one together.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: Everything that rhyme stugats is a good idea.
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: I don't know what's worse though, guys, because I have
• 16:25
  Speaker 5: a piece of paper in front of me, so I'm
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: I'm reading. I'm trying to make it sound like I'm
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: not reading, but I do have stuff that I'm following
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: along and sometimes there is some ad lib and I
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: actually think that that it's worse, Like if you're talking.
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: Sometimes your thoughts just get ahead of you and your
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: words get ahead of you because you want to get
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: them out so fast. But I don't know what's worse
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: if it's the actual reading of it or just messing
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: up on your own own accord.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Dan, and I say this lovingly. Do you ever wonder
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: if Iowa Sam is listening to the show like he's
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: been in.
• 16:55
  Speaker 8: A lot of plates. We'll just put it that way.
• 16:57
  Speaker 8: So that's all it was.
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: I know is Taylor has a stat of the day here, Taylor,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: go ahead here, So.
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: This stat is from Andrew Claudio from Knicks Film School. Yes,
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: the last time the Knicks lost a game, the New
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: York Jets were on the clock at pick sixteen of
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: the first round of the NFL Draft.
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: Twelve straight wins. Yes, that is so good.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: I don't think even if man, You're never gonna feel
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: better as a Knicks fan than right now.
• 17:23
  Speaker 4: I know which which scares me because I got spurs
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: and six. Well I know you do. He still has
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: the spurs and six.
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: The Knicks are going to be holding up the Lario
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Bara Brian Trophy and it is unbelievable. A day of
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: feel good? Can we have one day of feel good.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: You're right, I have never felt this good as a
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Knick fan. But you know what that means is he
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: It means there's potential for me to never feel worse
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: as a Nick fan as well, if they don't end
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: up pulling this off, Because I think most most Knick
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: fans think.
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: Right now this series is a rap.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: And are you guys starting to see the importance now
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: of a big Game two? Do you realize why I
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: say Game two is the biggest game in any best
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: of seven series. The Spurs lose this game, their season's over.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: The Knicks win this game, their season's over, They've won
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: a title. The Knicks lose this game, and all of
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: a sudden it becomes a series. That's why Game two
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: swing game big game.
• 18:15
  Speaker 4: So two things.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: One, I actually had Spurs in seven yesterday and I
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: have shortened it to six.
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: Oh you're more confident, yes, yeah, call me crazy.
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: Secondarily, this is just another case of Stu Gott's always
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: winning because the Game two thing was hilarious, but you've
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: had so many examples of it being true where just
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: like hands off, you win.
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: It's a big game.
• 18:34
  Speaker 6: Also, game advice for the Spurs. Game two the T
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: shirt thing was cool in the first round. Drop it
• 18:39
  Speaker 6: for the NBA Finals. You look like a gimmick game.
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: Well, it's problematic when you've got all the Knicks and
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: their knicks fans ruining the color skame.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Yes, I'm not certain anyone hated the start of the
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: game more so than Dan Byer.
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: He's hit us a group text last night. He was outraged.
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: What happened to you? Did?
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: Well, I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what happened.
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: Mira in Driva will face Maya Shwallinska in the Let
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: Me It's Final tomorrow morning at Roland Gero set the
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: French Open.
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: I don't know any of the semi finalists, any of
• 19:07
  Speaker 4: them men or women. Why do they play on dirt? Right? Well?
• 19:10
  Speaker 7: I mean we Dan just sneeze.
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: By the way, Jason was the one who was outraged
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: by it. I had the Lakers take it was Jason
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: who was mad.
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: I thought the same thing, and let me just say,
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: God bless you. Dan.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: Be sure to catch live editions of Stu Godson Company
• 19:26

• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Our thanks to Chris Simms for joining us giving us
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: a little football a break is he has Nick fatigue,
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: so a little break from the New York Knicks year.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: But I have a fielding tailor's going to get back
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: to it somehow. We haven't thought enough today. And it
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: is a think about it Thursday, So Iowa, Sam, give
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: me the imaging.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: You know that segment talk about it Tuesday on Hawkman
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: Crowder in Soleiro. This is like that, but bigger, bigger
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: and better, better, And forty eight hours later, this is
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: think about It Thursday, sickly.
• 20:07
  Speaker 7: So it's actually not Nicks related.
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: Oh wow, I'm sorry about that.
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: Let me just say that this is Taylor's quest here
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: to count of program, a local afternoon show in Miami
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: that no one knows about except for us, and I'm
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: proud of you.
• 20:19
  Speaker 4: Go ahead, Yeah, I love that show.
• 20:21
  Speaker 7: Yeah, a great group of guys.
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: They have you here. That's hilaria.
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: So Amazon Primes analyst Tray McGrady, Vince Carter, Carmelo Anthony,
• 20:31
  Speaker 6: think about it Thursday, start bench cut. Those three as
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: basketball play.
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: It's a different game, though, start bench cut. You're putting
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: a different game inside.
• 20:40
  Speaker 6: Think about it Thursday, thinking sometimes, think about it. Thursday's
• 20:43
  Speaker 6: a ranking. Sometimes it's a.
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: Tracy McGrady, Carmelo Anthony, thank you for saying that. As
• 20:51
  Speaker 4: he was saying that, just to remind me you are right, Yeah,
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: no a little bit. This one to me is a
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: little crazy.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: Right, I'm gonna because man, I have to cut Carmelo Anthony.
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: And the reason being is what there was a time
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: when I was watching both Vince Carter and then individually
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: when I was watching Tracy McGrady in their primes, where
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: I thought, if they really wanted to.
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: They could be the best player this game has ever seen.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Carmelo Anthony, I've always thought could be, you know, a
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: top twenty player of all time. Crazy scorer Bernard King like, yeah,
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: but there was a time where t mag and Vince
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: in their prime there.
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: Was nothing you could do to stop them, particularly Tea Max.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: So I'm starting t mac benching Vince Carter cutting Carmelo Anthony.
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: So I'm in quite the conundrum because Tracey McGrady and
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: Carmelo Anthony both nick legends. Vince Carter is a Carolina guy,
• 21:42
  Speaker 6: and I know I'm gonna see Vince Carter in Tahoe.
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: Yes, you'll see him. You'll talk to him.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: He won't sit down with us to talk to me,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: because you'll be hogging all this time.
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: So for me, I'm starting Vince Carter, the first jersey
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: I ever got as a kid. I'm benching Carmelo Anthony
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: because he's a nick legend. And unfortunately I'm cutting Trace McGrady,
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: who his peak was as good a score as I've
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: ever seen, but just didn't have the longevity of the
• 22:08
  Speaker 6: other two.
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: His peak was the best of three. Right, I gotta
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: be honest, I'm thinking more than normal. I mean, perhaps
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: overthinking most think. I know, but it's a different game.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: So I have to start one, bench one and cut one.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna start Vince Carter. I mean, Vince Carter was
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: so good man, half amazing. Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna cut.
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: I don't want to do this on a day the
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: Knicks are up one to nothing and overthink about it Thursday. Yeah,
• 22:34
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna cut Carmelo.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, Jesus Christ, he could have just waited and
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: we could have just had him.
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: And I'll bench I'll bench t mac. What a bench
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: when you've got Tea Mack coming off of it. We'll
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: talk to you tomorrow. Everyone nigs
