NY's Sports Loud Mouth 4-16-26 · NY's Sports Loud Mouth (VIDEO)

0:05
The NBA regular season is over and while the play in games are
0:09
wrapping up Friday, the debate for end of season awards are
0:13
well underway. Earlier Thursday, the NBA threw
0:16
a wrench into this debate by ruling both Pistons star Kate
0:20
Cunningham and Lakers star Luka Doncic eligible for the awards
0:24
despite not reaching the critical 65 game cut off.
0:29
Even more surprising are the odds for MVP before this, as
0:33
last year's MVP Shay Giljis Alexander is being treated as
0:36
the runaway favorite for the award despite unreal seasons by
0:40
both. Three time MVP Nikola Yokich
0:44
averaging a triple double with just under 28 points a game and
0:48
30 year sensation Victor Wembinyama, whose defensive
0:51
presence is undeniable as Yokich's offense is Harold Q and
0:57
Speedy, makes sense of this whole mess tonight.
1:01
And before we take a ride on the concrete jungle carousel and
1:05
catch up with all the Sports News in the tri-state area and
1:08
preview the offensive prospects likely to be selected in next
1:11
Thursday's first round of the 2026 NFL Draft.
1:15
We will preview the 2026 NBA Playoffs and discuss just how
1:19
far Jaylen Brunson and the Knicks will go this year on
1:22

worldwidesportsradio.com. It is warm here in Long Island,
4:28
New York. It's 83° today.
4:30
It's been unbelievable. Now we're we're driving this
4:33
summer. I hate the hot weather.
4:36
There's no air conditioning on right now because I don't have
4:39
central air. We have to get ready to put the
4:41
air conditionings in the in the windows and all that other
4:44
stuff. I know everybody out there.
4:45
You live in a really nice neighborhood.
4:47
Once you have central air, you got to have to ask my landlord
4:49
for that. But no, no central air here,
4:53
here at the Worldwide Sports Radio Network studios.
4:56
But it, it's still cool down here.
4:58
It's about 69°, but it's horrible outside.
5:01
I don't like this weather. I do not like the summer.
5:03
I don't like swimming pools. I don't like the beach as
5:07
everybody sits here and says, oh, I can't wait until the the
5:10
beach, you know. But anyways, that is my thing.
5:12
How about in Georgia? What is the weather over there
5:14
in Georgia? Super hot, it's like 99°, but
5:18
the only thing down here is this pollen season, so that's what
5:21
you got to worry about down here, so.
5:23
Do you have central air? Hot over seasonal allergies?
5:26
Do you have central air? Yeah, I.
5:28
Do of course you got to brag about that.
5:30
You always got to brag about it. Yeah.
5:32
Well. Yeah, why wouldn't I?
5:33
Why wouldn't I? Well, I don't understand why you
5:35
don't. That's a lot of people would say
5:37
the same thing, but I do not have central air here, but I
5:40
will have the air conditionings in don't worry about.
5:43
That when, when, so we can know. Probably in a week, usually a
5:47
week when it when it stays this hot and this humid.
5:51
I hate when the bugs come out. I hate the different mosquitoes
5:54
and the fleas. When you have dogs and cats.
5:56
I don't have any animals, so I don't have to deal with the, the
5:59
insects living on my animals. But you don't like it.
6:03
Then the I saw moths today. I don't like moths.
6:06
And then they have those little what are those things right now
6:09
that come from down South that eat away on the plants and the
6:12
wines? No, no, no, I forget what they
6:15
call them, but they're like fly. They look like moths, but
6:18
they're not moths, but you see them a lot.
6:20
I no, they're not butterflies. I I forget what they're called,
6:23
but it it is. Brutal.
6:26
I guess, yeah, the stink bug, I guess that's what it is.
6:29
They fly all over the place. They eat away on the wineries.
6:32
The wineries can't stand it out here.
6:35
I can't stand it because they're so quick.
6:38
They have like quicker reflexes than we we do.
6:41
I I try to step on them and they just automatically can move.
6:44
They have like this, this flexibility.
6:48
I don't know, I've never seen anything like it.
6:50
These insects are the most ugly, ridiculous things.
6:54
And again. They leave a older though.
6:55
If you kill them, they leave a older.
6:57
Yeah, I hear about it. It invites other stink bugs to
7:00
come, so you got to be careful when you kill them.
7:02
Well, thanks. Thank you.
7:03
We got Mr. Mr. Bug man over here, Mr. Insect.
7:08
Insect Man. Mr. Terminator.
7:12
I don't know. I I just can't stand this
7:14
weather. I I can't wait until the fall,
7:16
the winter time. What?
7:17
Yeah. I can't wait for it.
7:19
I I I can't. Stand this time the spring, this
7:22
prime time is. Horrible.
7:23
This weather is not my thing. I I don't like it.
7:26
Anybody that knows me, I can't stand Florida weather, I can't
7:29
stand California weather. I can't stand Texas weather
7:33
because it's just and even I've been to Arizona, I've been to
7:36
Las Vegas, I don't like that weather either.
7:39
So. Desert heat, that's different.
7:40
Yeah, that's way different. That's desert heat.
7:42
Yeah, you're right. Desert heat and and you got to
7:45
deal with bugs here in Long Island, all bugs.
7:48
When the pools open up, these insects in these termites and
7:52
all these other stuff, they're living and they're hibernating
7:55
and then they come out after, after the summer comes out and
7:58
it's hot and warm and disgusting and you got to deal with all
8:02
those bugs. So it's not something I look
8:04
forward to. But anyways, at a 20, we'll be
8:07
talking to former 11 year offensive tackle Bruno.
8:11
Hold on, how do I pronounce? How do I pronounce the last
8:14
name? Giacomini, Giacomini.
8:17
That's it. Bruno, Giacomini that that's you
8:20
see, I got to it's got to be Giacomini, Giacomini, Giacomini,
8:24
Giacomini. It's got to flow off the tongue.
8:26
Giacomini. Giacomini.
8:29
Yeah. So he'll be on.
8:31
He played for the Packers, the Seahawks, The Jets, the Texans.
8:35
He's played from 2008 to 2018. So Brino is coming on.
8:39
Thank you to the old myth for hooking us up.
8:41
I'm I'm interested to hear what he has to say about the New York
8:44
Jets. Probably nothing, because
8:45
there's always something that you.
8:47
Know that was good, good things going on with the New York Jets.
8:50
You're right, there's nothing there it is.
8:52
There's the myth Nifman loves the back end.
8:55
Yes, he does. He loves all the back end.
8:58
As we all say. I I got to pull out.
9:00
I got to pull out the softs I got.
9:02
To breaking news, smell my ass. There it is, the back end
9:05
anyways. In the NB AM VP race defending
9:09
award winner Shay Gilchrist. Alexander is the runaway
9:13
favorite to win the award despite Nicola Yokich reaching
9:17
65. The 65 game minimum according to
9:21
Bet MGMSGA is a -. 5000 to win the MVP, followed by Wembe at
9:28
+2000 and then Yokich at plus 6600.
9:33
Wembe is averaging 25 points, 11.5 rebounds and 3.1 assists
9:39
per game. He's been playing sensational as
9:42
we all know. Isn't it 3.1 blocks per game?
9:45
I think that's what he's averaging.
9:47
Not 3.1 assists per game, but I don't know.
9:49
SG Agent is averaged and it has been averaging 31.1 points per
9:54
game, 4.3 rebounds per game, and 6.6 assists per game this
9:59
season. Yokich averaging 27.7 points per
10:02
game, 12.9 rebounds per game, and 10.7 assists per game.
10:07
The other big controversial. There's no doubt controversial
10:12
in the NBA has been the 6565 game minimum rule, but the NBA
10:17
did rule Luka Doncic and Kate Cunningham eligible for the the
10:21
awards despite playing 64 games. I love, I'm wearing, as you can
10:29
see, I'm wearing an Oklahoma jersey.
10:32
I love OK CI. Really, I'm a Knick fan.
10:35
As you can see, I'm wearing my Knicks hat, wearing my nice
10:38
orange hat. Yeah, I have to be.
10:41
I love the New York Knicks. I love them, but I also love OK
10:45
CI, love SGAI. Think he's one of the most the
10:48
electrifying players right now in the NBA.
10:51
There's no question the guy can shoot the three.
10:52
He can dominate in many different areas of his game.
10:56
For a guy his size for for a guy significant size, he's still
11:01
averaging 4.3 rebounds per game and 6.6 assists per game.
11:05
This guy is a dominant offensive weapon.
11:08
And if you think about it, this is the same guy that was traded
11:12
for Paul George. This was the Clippers top end
11:16
pick. Him and Williams were the
11:17
Clippers and they traded these two players.
11:22
Probably one of the worst trades in NBA history.
11:24
Me and Fish have gone back and forth talking about it.
11:28
Think about it, you get 2 dominant players for one player
11:33
that can't stay healthy. Go ask the 76ers what they had
11:37
to deal with this year with Paul George.
11:41
The steroid situation, The guy can't stay healthy.
11:43
Came. Remember, this guy was a great
11:46
United States basketball player. Hurt his leg in the USA game and
11:51
obviously broke it. And I think two different spots.
11:53
Some people thought he was never going to come back again.
11:56
But what SGA has done has just dominated the league.
12:00
Canadian player, international player.
12:02
And when you look at the list of players right now up for this
12:05
award besides Kate Cunningham, Wembe is from France, SGA is
12:12
from Canada, Yokich is from Serbia, Luka Dodgek, where's he
12:19
from? I don't even know where Croatia.
12:22
There it is. I mean, you have 4 international
12:25
players. Your four best players in all of
12:28
the NBA are international. Would this have happened in the
12:32
90s or the early 2000s? No, because you had LeBron James
12:35
at the top of his game yet Kobe Bryant in the days of the 90s,
12:39
you had you had Tim Duncan, you had Michael Jordan, you had all
12:44
those players, Karl Malone, Scottie Pippen.
12:48
America was dominating, dominating every single year,
12:52
every single decade. And now it's transition into an
12:56
international game jerk. Nowinski was one of the first
12:59
international superstars and then all these players started
13:03
to come from all different countries and have dominated,
13:06
absolutely dominated. SGA is one of those guys that
13:10
you love to watch. The guy is sensational.
13:12
But as far as the MVPI think Jokic has been stole.
13:17
He he they stole the MVP last year.
13:20
This is a big man that had a triple double last year, a
13:23
triple double. And what he's doing right now is
13:26
it's just absolutely amazing. 12.9 rebounds per game, which he
13:30
leads the league, 10 points, 10.7 assists per game.
13:34
This guy's been probably the leading assist guy in all of the
13:38
NBA practically the whole season.
13:40
I don't know if he's still there, but he's one of the top
13:42
three in the NBA and 27 points. Now, I'm not taking shots at
13:47
SGA, but the only thing SGA dominates in as far as what I've
13:51
seen is his offense ability. His offensive ability is
13:55
remarkable, but he's only averaging four more points than
14:00
Yokich is. Yokich is dominating on the
14:02
board. Yokich is dominating on the
14:04
assists. How is SGA right now throughout
14:11
the league? A -?
14:13
5000 to win the MVP? It doesn't make any sense.
14:17
I don't care what bet MGM thinks, Vegas thinks this guy's
14:21
been sensational. Is he the best player right now
14:22
in the NBA? Does he make his team that much
14:25
better? I can tell you this right now,
14:27
if SGA was hurt, this team is still a top three team in the in
14:32
the Western Conference. Still still, you look at Webby
14:37
Yama and see what he's done. He's been sensational, but even
14:40
without Webby, there's still a playoff team.
14:43
There's still a top five team in the Western Conference.
14:46
They're sensational. They got so much talent, young
14:49
talent, so much depth on that roster.
14:53
If you look at a guy like Yokich, if Yokich is not
14:59
playing, does this team, is this team a playoff team?
15:01
They're not. Is this team an elite team?
15:04
They're not. Is this team competing for a top
15:06
five seed? They're not.
15:09
Jokic makes them that much better.
15:11
And what do you think an MVP stands for?
15:14
Most Valuable Player and the Most Valuable Player to their
15:18
team and throughout the NBA is is no other than Nicole Jokic.
15:22
There's no argument to it. What he does on a basketball
15:25
court, we've never seen a big man do.
15:27
Now, is he a good defender? No, he's not the best defender.
15:30
Is he a decent defender? He is.
15:33
But what he does with the ball, passing the ball, rebounding the
15:35
ball, scoring the ball, how many players can do what he does at
15:38
his size? How many players in the past can
15:41
do what he does with his size? Nobody.
15:46
That's how talented he is. That's how great he is.
15:49
And again, going back to all these guys, even Luka Doncic,
15:53
what he's done for the Lakers, we all knew how great Luka is.
15:56
Luka is special. He is an offensive phenom.
16:02
He helped the Lakers really get this team to the playoffs.
16:05
Without Luka Doncic, LeBron James is not the same LeBron
16:08
James. Reeves has been really, really
16:10
good this year. He's going to get a big
16:11
contract. But without Luka Doncic, this
16:13
team is not even a playoff contending team.
16:16
When I look at the two best players, the two MVPS to their
16:20
teams, it's Luka Doncic and Nicola Yokich.
16:25
They make their teams that much better.
16:27
Now. I'm not taking shots at webbing
16:28
Yama. Webbing Yama is turning into a
16:31
superstar. I was one that didn't like
16:33
webbing Yama. I didn't think he was going to
16:34
stay healthy. But his heart and his soul and
16:37
how hard he plays. You'll love the way he is
16:40
energetic and he goes out there and plays hard every single
16:42
game. Look what he did in the All Star
16:43
game. He's the only one that played
16:45
hard in the All Star Game. All these guys are well
16:49
deserving players. Kate Cunningham has been
16:52
unbelievable. You can argue he is the he was
16:55
the best point guard in the NBANBA before he went down.
16:59
He was better than SGA all around.
17:01
What he's done for Detroit, what he's done for that organization,
17:05
what he's done for the Eastern Conference, Detroit.
17:11
I remember when they were world power, they had the 2 Wallaces,
17:16
they had Billups, they had Hamilton, they had Prince.
17:20
Dominant force. When you look at this team, the
17:23
only player, the only superstar besides Duran's a good play, but
17:27
besides Kate Cunningham. Could you name their top five
17:30
players on their roster? You probably couldn't if you
17:32
don't watch Detroit basketball. That's how good Kate Cunningham
17:37
has been this year. There's no arguments to him.
17:40
I can't argue who he is as a player.
17:42
But what I can argue right now is how the hell does Bet MGM
17:48
have SGA as a -5000? It doesn't make any sense.
17:51
Nicola Yokich is the third guy on this list.
17:54
A + 6600. How many big men?
17:57
How many big men could you remember have a triple double
18:01
back-to-back years? Now?
18:03
I remember Harden, I remember Westbrook, all both those guys,
18:08
when they had a triple double, they were automatically MVPS,
18:11
automatically MVPS. Bull hogs or not, they're
18:15
automatic MVPS. How does Nicole Yokich do it
18:18
year in and year out and get better, better?
18:21
If you look at his numbers, they're absolutely better than
18:24
he was last year. How does this guy not the
18:26
leading vote getter for the MVP? It doesn't make any sense,
18:29
Speedy. It makes no sense.
18:31
You you mentioned those other two cases too, Westbrook and
18:34
Harden. They were not as efficient as
18:35
what we've seen Nicola Yokich do in every triple double season
18:38
that he's had. I didn't think Harden should
18:40
have won it that year Even so, because he was very inefficient.
18:42
I think he was a 43% shooter that year.
18:44
I thought Anthony Davis deserved it on a lot lesser team.
18:47
That's when New Orleans first broke out and then Anthony Davis
18:49
got traded the next year and then LeBron was in the as we
18:51
said many times, like LeBron could win the MVP in a lot of
18:54
different years. And now Yokich is getting that
18:55
same kind of treatment because of Joelle and beads cry baby
18:58
antics and that tight race last year with Yokich at SGA.
19:01
But I agree with you. There's no justifying that that
19:04
this guy's averaging a triple double on a Nuggets team.
19:06
We'll get into them. But when we preview the
19:08
playoffs, that is 2020, first in total defense this year.
19:11
Now, yeah, his defense hasn't been great.
19:13
I think it's his worst defensive year, I believe, since his
19:15
rookie year. So yeah, maybe that's going to
19:17
factor into it. But at the same time.
19:19
That's going to factor in a triple I.
19:21
I wouldn't do it, but I'm just saying there they'll probably
19:23
there's certain voters that say, oh, his his defensive efficiency
19:26
is down. So they're going to hold that
19:27
against him compared to Wendy, who's going to be a finalist for
19:29
defensive player of the year could win it.
19:31
Now this is the other thing that's interesting is the
19:33
minutes versus the games played, because Wemby actually played
19:37
less minutes than everyone else on this list.
19:40
Now, they were going to nitpick on Luka, Doncic, and Kate for
19:42
missing the 64, missing the 65 game mark, but Wemby actually
19:46
played less minutes than both of them Even so.
19:47
So I'm glad the NBA did that and realized that MB should not be
19:51
on the list if if Kate and Luca aren't because obviously Kate
19:54
had collapsed along. That's not a basketball injury.
19:56
And Luca Dantic, like you said, is powering through a Lakers
19:59
team that has had injuries galore all year.
20:01
So the fact that they did that is a good move.
20:03
And but I agree with you, I still think Yokich has elevated
20:06
that team when all the trades that were made a new coach this
20:09
year. In your view right now, when you
20:10
look at this list, who is the number one player to win MVP?
20:13
Yokich it's. It's not even an argument.
20:15
SGA, SGA. Let's hear it.
20:18
Let's hear your take about SGA. So SEA got OKC to the number one
20:23
seed right in the 1st 21 games huh?
20:26
Did. He.
20:27
Yeah, for sure, but he also runs the system, but he's also
20:30
leading that team, averaging 30 points.
20:33
He's also didn't pay for the 1st 21st game, 1st 21 games.
20:39
He never played in the fourth quarter.
20:41
So still averaging 30 without playing in the fourth quarter.
20:44
I would think that would be an impressive, right?
20:46
That would be impressive, right? Total.
20:48
Points, yes, but it's. Per game.
20:50
So you're hold on one second. So you're saying in the 1st 20
20:53
games he didn't play in a fourth quarter.
20:54
So it's telling you that they're that much better than everybody
20:57
else. That's not, that's what, that's
20:59
what I'm telling you. They're beating people like they
21:02
suppose. They're that much better than
21:04
everybody else. Okay, why?
21:07
Who's leading the pack? The team, there's a whole team.
21:10
It's just him. SEA is leading the pack, yes or
21:13
no? Yeah, but it's really.
21:14
Is he leading the team in rebounds?
21:16
Okay. Is he leading the team in
21:17
assist? Is he leading the team in
21:19
blocks? Yes or no?
21:21
No, okay. I rest my case.
21:22
So that what is that what case? I rest my case because right now
21:26
when you look at Jokic, he leads the team in points, rebounds,
21:29
assist. He is that that important of a
21:32
player. He's the Most Valuable Player to
21:35
his. Team.
21:36
His. Franchise or in 3rd correct?
21:39
Yeah, the team stinks. It would be a playing team if he
21:42
wasn't. There, the team stinks.
21:45
They do. They stink.
21:47
Third in the Western Conference. Would you say the Western
21:49
Conference is tougher? Yes.
21:51
Harder. Yes, absolutely Harder.
21:53
Absolutely harder. OK.
21:55
So they in the third, they in 3rd place, OK, But they was
21:58
battling in the in the middle of the season, they were battling
22:01
anywhere between 5:00 to 7:00, correct?
22:04
Go ahead. I'm waiting for your point here.
22:06
I'm. Waiting for the point.
22:08
What? What's that?
22:09
What you need? You waiting for the I'm.
22:10
Waiting for the point because I gave you my point.
22:12
If he's not playing in the fourth quarter for the 1st 20
22:14
games, it means his team is not much.
22:16
Better than everybody. Else you could win without him.
22:19
But you're taking away the 30 points that he's he's already
22:24
getting in. If you don't get those 30
22:26
points, they're not blowing people out.
22:28
If you look at all these, if you look at all these players that
22:32
are fighting for that MVP, the Most Valuable Player, Webin Yama
22:36
is more valuable to his team than SGA is.
22:39
And so yes, he is Luka Doncic. Luka Doncic is more Luka Doncic
22:46
is more important to his team than SGA is, because if these
22:50
players were not on their teams, they're not in the playoffs.
22:54
They're just not. LeBron and AR or their final?
22:56
Seeds, they're like 8 or they're like 8 or 7 seeds.
22:59
Yeah, Nuggets and Lakers are definitely playing teams.
23:02
If those two guys aren't healthy all year, if.
23:04
Luca don't play and it's just LeBron and Arkansas.
23:06
You're telling me that they can't get past the play in?
23:09
No, no, no, that's insane. The.
23:12
Spurs, I think could. I don't leave the other two
23:14
teams. That's.
23:14
Insane. Who?
23:17
I mean, Luca gets 30, but he traded baskets.
23:19
So I mean, I don't understand like that logic in regards to
23:22
like is he gives to 30, but he's also giving up 353540 points.
23:27
So what's the what's the logic behind saying that he is that
23:31
impactful on the office? It's entertaining but impactful
23:35
wise. In the game wise, it's not
23:37
really moving the needle like that because you're trading so
23:39
many baskets on the other side of the court.
23:41
How about this? That's what I'm saying.
23:43
How about this? Why the NBA wants SGA to win
23:47
every single year is because he's a Good Samaritan.
23:49
He doesn't complain to the referees.
23:51
No, this is this is the truth. He doesn't complain.
23:54
Webbing, Yamas always out there speaking to the media and
23:56
throwing the NBA under the bus with the All Star game.
23:59
Luka Dajik how many times does he fight on the court?
24:01
He sticks up for his players. You see that all the time.
24:04
Kate Cunningham He's been back and forth arguing with referees.
24:08
He's coming from that dirty, dirty Detroit and everybody
24:11
doesn't like him because he's playing for Detroit.
24:13
Luka Dajik, how many times does he bitch and moan to the
24:16
referees? He's one of the leading guys in
24:18
the NBA that does so. The only guy you look at as SGA
24:22
who doesn't get in trouble doesn't really say.
24:24
Any other referees though really speak to the referee when they
24:26
get filed and they don't call? Really.
24:28
Is that why the? Same free from.
24:30
Is that like everybody else? Is that why we still complain?
24:33
Is that why when he goes to Madison Square Garden, they're
24:36
calling fouls on the Knicks more than they're calling fouls on
24:39
him? Is that why?
24:41
Because it usually goes to the whole.
24:43
Team. Oh stop it.
24:45
Throwing fouls on the talent. It's a talent, all right.
24:47
It's James Harden. It's James Harden.
24:54
Let me do the stinky leg. Let me do the stinky leg.
24:59
Give me a break. How are you arguing this?
25:04
He flops and he gets to the line.
25:06
How are you arguing this? There's no argument to this.
25:09
SGA is not the MVP. He's leading, He's number one.
25:12
He's leading in the league. He's number one in the Western
25:15
Conference. He's no.
25:16
One in the division. No, he's not.
25:17
He's leading the points. He's he's never, he hasn't been
25:20
dethroned from winning the championship last year.
25:23
He had one of the hardest schedules of the year.
25:26
So what are we talking? About the white schedules.
25:29
Dodge won the point record, not SGA.
25:32
Dodge's averaged 33 1/2 because they just allowed him to get but
25:35
then they just today, as we said in the beginning in the read
25:38
right, they're bringing him back to those end of season year
25:40
awards. So now I just got it.
25:41
Donchech gets the the point title.
25:44
He's going to probably, and this lets the first team NBA guys
25:46
because that stuff's in people's contracts if you don't make.
25:48
Those NBA way more. He's shooting way more than.
25:52
SGA too. I'm going to take your side, Q
25:54
and I, I, I look, I love Jokic. I probably would still go with
25:58
Jokic, but here's the argument. I haven't given you this
26:01
argument for SGA yet. Here's the advanced stats.
26:05
Oh God, here it is again. I know, look.
26:07
It's true. No, it's it's not true.
26:10
Why? Because he's selling his taking
26:11
your side. I'm.
26:12
Going to get he's. Only feeling bad for you.
26:14
He's only feeling bad, no? I'm not bad.
26:17
No he's not, I'll give it because advanced stats don't
26:20
sell me anything. True.
26:21
Shooting percentage speedy what is true Shooting percentage tell
26:24
us. So true, true shooting
26:26
percentage is the it's the multiplication of like most twos
26:30
and most threes percentage combined and SGAI believe was I
26:34
think 58 on the year. Actually, that's not true.
26:38
He set the all. Time record.
26:39
I'm messing with. The fact I think I messed up
26:41
with the. Fact if you're.
26:42
Right. Here's here's what he did.
26:44
That's, that's why people are going to give him this award at
26:46
-5000 because I couldn't understand it either.
26:49
He said he broke Michael Jordan Michael Jordans record for
26:54
highest field goal percentage for a guard who averaged over 30
26:59
points a game. Games different.
27:01
Games different. Games different.
27:04
Games. Different.
27:06
This is like a two point thing though.
27:08
This is about like combining the two pointers games different,
27:11
but that's putting him in Michael Jordan territory.
27:13
No, you cannot put him in the same.
27:16
I'm not done. I got a second.
27:18
I got a second. Well, spit it out because I
27:20
want. I have a lot to say about.
27:21
His true shooting percentage of 67.5.
27:26
Steph Curry's record in 20/15/2016 of 60. 6.9.
27:32
Are you done? Are.
27:33
You done 90s and. Curry votes, are you done?
27:37
In shooting, he's not with. First team defense.
27:42
OK, now I'm going to, I'm going to argue that Luka Doncic right
27:45
now is in the top five in offense in the league.
27:48
Luka Doncic is in the top 3IN rebounds and assists.
27:52
And Luka Doncic is a big man. That's what he is.
27:55
He runs the offense, runs through the big OK, doesn't run.
28:00
SGA is the point guard. It's supposed to run the
28:02
offense, supposed to run through him.
28:04
And right now when you look at his roster, his roster has more
28:07
depth in all of the Western Conference than any team.
28:11
When you if you look at what SGA has done, I don't care what he's
28:14
doing. Breaking Michael Jordan's
28:15
statistic records or whatever, and Michael Jordan played in the
28:19
90s is a different game. It was a different game.
28:22
Defense was different. If if SGA played in the game
28:25
when Michael Jordan played, he wouldn't be able to get off the
28:28
shots that he gets off. He's open 90% of the time.
28:31
So do you sit here? Yeah, he is.
28:33
Do you watch? Do you watch him?
28:36
I watch him there. Is it would be way more athletic
28:38
than what they seen in the there.
28:40
Is no way in hell by looking at this stats you can argue right
28:45
now that he is better than what Jokic has done he.
28:48
Will be going up against Michael.
28:49
Jordan, if it was your. Rival.
28:51
So, so you're telling me why James Harden and Russell
28:53
Westbrook, who won, who won the MVP triple double?
28:56
And and by the way, there were other players that had better
28:58
numbers than them, way better numbers than them that year, way
29:01
better numbers. They're they won the MVP because
29:04
they were triple double S. And by the way, they play the
29:07
point guard position. This is a big man, a big 5 doing
29:13
what he is doing right now. It's insane what he is doing.
29:17
And you're you're you argue. I don't care what these these
29:19
stupid statistics will try to drive what Michael Jordan did
29:23
and what all these guys that that doesn't mean anything
29:25
because to me, no, it's not because the game is different.
29:29
My argue. No, I don't care what these
29:31
advanced statistics mean. Nothing because they weren't
29:34
here in the NBA, because they weren't here in the 90s, they
29:38
weren't here in the 80s. And they bring these advanced
29:40
statistics just like they do at baseball, and they ruin the game
29:43
of baseball. I'm sorry it.
29:45
Ruins the game of baseball because now everybody thinks,
29:48
now everybody thinks that this guy's better than Babe Ruth.
29:50
Oh, Tani's got on this and he's done that.
29:53
He's better than Babe Ruth. He's not better than Babe Ruth.
29:55
He's not a better pitcher than Babe Ruth.
29:57
He's not a better power hitter than Babe Ruth.
29:59
The game was different. The ballparks were bigger.
30:01
They weren't juiced up balls. So you sit here and you're going
30:04
to tell me all this garbage. When you look at advanced
30:07
statistics, these advanced statistics mean nothing because
30:11
they brought into the league to try to transition what the
30:14
league is and what a transition to from then to now.
30:17
It's garbage. And I'm not going to argue that
30:20
when when you bring up advanced statistics, what I can argue is
30:23
when you look at talent, full-fledged talent, what this
30:27
guy has done in the last two years, this guy was the MVP of
30:31
the league. There's no arguments to it.
30:32
And anybody that argues this doesn't know basketball.
30:36
They don't. And that doesn't take away from
30:38
SGA. Such a different player though
30:43
and I said more. Talented than NCA?
30:45
I'm sorry, I think. Is Joker more talented than?
30:48
NCA Jokic, yes. Yes.
30:50
Yes, Oh my God yes. Jokic is a better player and
30:53
more talented than SGA. No question.
30:56
No question, I don't. Agree with you Arable.
30:59
And I just wanted to throw this out there because, look,
31:03
obviously both incredible players, incredible seasons,
31:06
right? In different ways, In very
31:08
different ways. I don't think you can blame SGA
31:10
for being on the best team. They always used to give the
31:13
best guy on the best team with the best record the award.
31:17
The team that was put together through, by the way, put
31:20
together through the. Draft.
31:21
Yeah. The process was trusted.
31:22
The process was trusted over there, yeah.
31:24
Penalize them for that, though. But I think I remember the
31:27
beginning of the season when they had everybody healthy in
31:29
Denver and they blitzed everyone, including the Thunder,
31:33
and then they lost Aaron Gordon and Jokic kept them afloat and
31:36
still got them the three seed. Now that Gordon is back for the
31:39
last month plus they've been playing.
31:41
They've got into the point in the last couple weeks.
31:43
They beat, you know, they beat the I think, I don't think it
31:47
might be played, but they beat the Spurs at the end.
31:49
He Jokic is on a mission and he's got the most healthy help
31:53
he's had since they won four years ago.
31:56
I would be very. And look, if he gets third, he
32:00
gets third in this. He's going to go on quite a
32:02
revenge tour in this playoffs, bro.
32:04
Yeah, I I doubt it. He probably don't get past the
32:06
first round, definitely won't get past the second.
32:08
Well. Well, you know, it's interesting
32:10
you bring that up because we could get into that.
32:14
Let's go now. Yeah, let's get into it.
32:16
The NBA playoff preview with the Eastern Conference.
32:19
The number six seed. The Hawks will face off against
32:22
the number 3 New York Knicks. The Hawks are 28 and 15 since
32:26
the trade with Trey Young, while the Knicks won 53 games in Mike
32:31
Brown's first year as head coach, breaking Pat Riley's
32:35
record. The number five seed, the
32:37
Raptors will face off against the Cavaliers.
32:40
The number four seed, the Raptors have the 9th best
32:43
defense in the NBA while the Cavaliers are #4 On offense, The
32:48
number seven seed Sixers will face off against the Celtics.
32:51
The number two seed, The 76ers are the number six overall
32:55
rebounding team in the NBA, but will be without Joel Embiid
33:00
against the Celtics, the team that is number one in total
33:04
defenses, a defense. The number one seed, the
33:07
Pistons, will face off against the winner of the Hornets in the
33:10
Magic play in game tomorrow. The Pistons finished 60 and 22
33:14
and was the number one seed in the Eastern Conference since
33:18
November 7th in the Western Conference.
33:20
The number 5 seed, the Rockets will face off the number against
33:24
the number four seed Lakers. The Lakers say that both Austin
33:28
Reeves and Lukatachek are still out indefinitely against the
33:33
Rockets team with with everybody healthy As for now the number
33:38
six seed. The Timberwolves will face off
33:41
against the number three seed, the Nuggets, a rematch from the
33:45
from two years ago when Minnesota won in seven games.
33:49
The Timberwolves are the second worst free throw shooting team
33:53
in the NBA against a Nuggets defense that is 21st in the NBA.
33:58
The number seven seed the the the Trail Blazers will take on
34:03
the number two seed, the Spurs. Dylan Harper has a thumb injury
34:08
and could miss the first two games of the series, while Wemby
34:12
will be good to go after avoiding a major rib injury he
34:17
suffered April 7th versus the 76ers.
34:20
The number one seed the Thunder will face off against the winner
34:25
of the Warriors and Sons play in game tomorrow.
34:27
The Thunder are the only team in the NBA this season with a top
34:32
five offense and defense. As far as points per game, let's
34:38
get into the New York Knicks because it's choose Atlanta
34:43
Hawks. We're sitting there against the
34:47
Atlanta Hawks. Here's the thing.
34:50
The Atlanta Hawks are a good young team.
34:52
They are they're they're, they're fun to watch.
34:55
They're they're impressive. Everything about Atlanta tells
34:59
me that they're dangerous, everything.
35:01
And when you go back and forth and you look at the Hawks and
35:05
their talent, you can look at obviously their number one guy
35:10
and, and, and everybody knows who their number one guy.
35:12
We talk about it all the time, their roster and, and what they
35:15
stand for. Jaylen Johnson is one of the
35:17
best players, one of the best young players in the NBA.
35:21
If he has a good game, it's going to be hard for the Knicks
35:25
to keep up with the pace of this young Atlanta Hawks team.
35:29
But the Knicks have the 1 weapon.
35:31
The Hawks don't. They have a Jaylen Bronson and
35:34
Jaylen Bronson is one of those guys that when his team goes
35:38
down and his team needs those extra points, he's the one
35:41
that's going to go out there and get them.
35:43
And if Karl Anthony Towns, if he wakes up and he bees, he becomes
35:48
that number 2. Cuz if the Knicks have Karl
35:50
Anthony Towns playing as a #2 giving you about 22 and 10, the
35:54
Knicks are going to win their series in five.
35:57
I don't think it goes past five. And that that doesn't to take
36:01
away what Atlanta has done. I think Atlanta's one year away
36:04
from being an elite team in the NBAI think they need one or
36:07
maybe two more pieces. They're going to have a high top
36:10
ten pick this year. So I expect Atlanta to get
36:13
themselves a very good young player on this roster to play
36:16
with Jaylen Johnson. But the Knicks have a lot of
36:21
weapons and what they did against Detroit in the first
36:24
round last year is they use those weapons.
36:26
There were other guys that didn't give them enough, but
36:29
McBride last year gave them a lot.
36:31
They gave him. He gave him like 8 or 9 points
36:33
off the bench. If you're getting that with all
36:36
the different weapons they have. OG and Anobi, one of the best
36:39
defensive players in the league, he's going to be up for
36:41
Defensive Player of the Year. He's not going to win.
36:42
Webiyama is going to win, but OG has been one of the best
36:46
perimeter defenders in the NBAI think that when you look at this
36:51
roster and you look at the talent, they're much better than
36:55
the Atlanta Hawks. Now, if they go and they play
36:57
Atlanta and they let Atlanta believe that they could beat
36:59
them, and Atlanta gets that first win and they're up 1 and
37:02
nothing, the Knicks are in trouble because first of all,
37:06
you have Mike Brown, who's a new coach with the New York Knicks.
37:09
He's been there before. He's coached Sacramento, he's
37:11
coached other teams, he's coached the Cavaliers to the
37:13
Finals. We all know what he's done.
37:15
He's won. He's won assistant coach.
37:18
I don't know if you won assistant coach of the year, but
37:20
he won a couple of championships with the Golden State Warriors
37:23
and Greg Popovich. So the guy knows how to win.
37:25
There's no question that he does.
37:27
But as a coach, he's never won. So the pressure's on him.
37:31
I don't care if he'd beat Pat Riley's record these secondary
37:35
players, and you know what I'm talking about, sweetie.
37:39
Who do you think I'm talking about?
37:41
The guy that the Knicks traded for six first round draft picks?
37:44
Mikhail Bridges. Mikhail Bridges.
37:47
This man needs to show up in this series.
37:49
He cannot show up in one series for three games and then
37:53
disappear. He needs to play hard every
37:56
single game. He is a world renowned defensive
38:00
player there. There's no doubt when he plays
38:02
at a high level, Mikhail Bridges is one of the top 12, top 13
38:05
defenders at his position. You can argue in the league, but
38:10
the problem with Mikhail Bridges is he disappears offensively and
38:13
defensively in games. They need that.
38:17
They need an offensive momentum in this game in in this series
38:21
against an Atlanta Helix team has nothing to lose.
38:24
They have nothing to lose, guys. They they are to them, they
38:28
believe they're going to beat the Knicks.
38:30
They believe they're going to beat the Knicks in four games.
38:32
Why? Because there's nothing for them
38:34
to really worry about. They're going to go out there,
38:36
they're going to play hard and they're going to play at a high
38:38
level. The Knicks are going to have to
38:40
be able to compete with that high level, that high paced
38:43
game. They're young, they're
38:44
energetic. Look what they did.
38:46
They traded with Golden State, they brought Kaminga there.
38:48
It's a different team. This is a team that believes in
38:51
each other. And when you believe they're
38:53
just as dangerous as the New York Knicks when it comes to
38:55
full talent, there is nobody in the Eastern Conference.
38:59
Yes, I said it. Nobody.
39:01
When this team plays at full strength and at a high level,
39:04
there's nobody in the Eastern Conference better than the
39:06
Knicks. Nobody.
39:07
Yeah. This is interesting because the
39:09
Hawks, the way their depth is structured this year since Trey
39:12
Young or since Trey Young was traded, you look at, you said
39:15
they bring Kaminga, he plays refreshed after a whole the
39:17
whole Golden State debacle over there.
39:19
You look at somebody like Jalen Johnson emerging as a starting
39:21
to kill Alexander Walker, a guy who was a journeyman with the
39:24
Pelicans and a couple other teams that is founding his
39:26
groove nicely. But what's interesting is they
39:28
have a lot of different double digit scores off the bench, 8
39:31
different guys, which is the same identity you saw the Pacers
39:34
have last year, which the Knicks had trouble with that faster
39:37
pace. Now it's a different coaching
39:38
staff. Obviously Mike Brown.
39:39
I think it's done a better job with the transition defense
39:41
element than Tom Thibodeau did. That was I think the biggest
39:43
thing because Tom Thibodeau was trying to play the physical half
39:45
court defense a lot of the time and faster teams like the Pacers
39:49
caught them in transition. The Knicks obviously the bench
39:51
def like you said is going to be a big factor too.
39:53
McHale Bridges cannot disappear as much as he has offensively in
39:56
the second-half of the season. Josh Hart, same kind of thing.
39:58
And you wonder what these reports about him playing the
40:01
center the and getting Cat more in the offense that we talked
40:04
about last week. You're going to need Jose
40:05
Alvarado defensively to off the bench.
40:07
You're going to need him because Jaylen Johnson, he's going to be
40:10
running that offense. The running the offense is going
40:13
to go through him. They need a guy that's going to
40:14
get under him, be a pest to him, and Jose Alvarado has been that
40:18
defender. Yes, and I was going to say the
40:19
the guard depth that that Atlanta has on the bench is
40:22
that's why Alvarado is going to be a big X Factor too on the
40:24
defensive side. On the offensive side, somebody
40:27
whether it's Shannon, whether it's Clarkson, somebody has to
40:29
emerge into that score off the bench to because the Hawks
40:32
defenders, I think the outside of Nikhil Alexander Walker among
40:36
their guards are not as good as you would expect.
40:39
But again, it's a team like you said, that's playing very
40:40
comfortable right now. They have a guys that have
40:43
embraced their role, like you said, Kaminga or Shire, who is a
40:46
first overall pick. He's downgrade to a bench role,
40:48
but he's still playing in that role.
40:50
The Hawks have as few like to say.
40:52
The Hawks have a system that they can trust right now.
40:54
Now, again, it is very young all at once, and that's where I
40:57
think they still have the edge right now.
40:58
They did that with Detroit last year.
41:00
Detroit was a very young team, but the Knicks still had trouble
41:04
with Detroit. They only won in six games.
41:05
They had to win on a buzzer beater.
41:06
One of the games like that's the.
41:08
Playoff speedy. Yeah, they cannot.
41:09
I'm just saying the Knicks cannot take this lightly.
41:11
And Mike Brown, that's the message that you're going to
41:13
have if you want to be able to keep his job as a head coach, is
41:16
not to do what? If the Knicks don't win this
41:18
series, he's going to be fired. There's no way.
41:22
Yeah, I'm telling you. I'm telling you right now with
41:25
this roster and the way this roster is set up, there's no
41:27
way. There's a lot of questions with
41:29
Mike Brown throughout the season.
41:31
They were having team meetings. Josh Hart came out at the tail
41:34
end of the season saying that this team cannot play this way
41:37
or they're not going to win. They're not going to move
41:39
forward in the playoffs. When you have players coming out
41:41
and saying that they never did that when Tom Thibodeau is
41:44
there, they never had the authority to do that.
41:47
And now all of a sudden, Mike Brown is there and everybody,
41:50
nobody is speaking. That's a problem.
41:52
You could say whatever you want. Q If this team does not go
41:55
through the Hawks, and they should breeze through the Hawks
41:57
because they're that much better than the Hawks.
41:59
If they don't, I'm telling you right now, Mike Brown will be
42:02
fired. He will be fired.
42:04
I'm telling you right now, if they fire Mike Brown after
42:07
losing the first round to Atlanta Hawks, the New York
42:10
Knicks will not see a Eastern Conference finals or a
42:13
championship run for the next decade.
42:16
OK, why in it what I'm saying? So why?
42:20
Because all right, you going to get rid of the coach, All right,
42:23
So that's two coaches in the last two years, right, that you
42:25
don't got rid of. Okay, then you're going to blow
42:27
up the team because you're trying to go get Yannis.
42:30
All right, Old Yannis, who hasn't been as productive.
42:33
How are you blowing Yannis? Yannis still led the league in
42:36
so many statistics before he got hurt, so he was a top five MVP
42:41
candidate before he got hurt this year, before he hurt his
42:43
ankle or whatever his hamstring. What was it?
42:46
Before now. Now he's.
42:47
What was it? Is it killing whatever it was?
42:49
We can't talk about before we got to talk about what he can do
42:51
Calf. Calf.
42:53
Yeah. Is it killing calf?
42:54
There it is. Is calf.
42:55
Not going to have no identity that you don't already know now.
42:57
So in regards to this matchup, I think Atlanta is just going to
43:00
have to keep Jenny Brunson under 30 and I think there's going to
43:03
be an issue unless Cat step up and you get to and you get some
43:06
role players that play their part.
43:08
Josh Hart going to need to have at least one to two big games in
43:11
this in this series to go. I actually got the knits coming
43:15
out of this and six to seven. But it's going to be rough if
43:19
they don't get some more production from the bench and
43:23
Cat don't dominate on the inside.
43:25
But like you said earlier, if you get 22 and 10, they got a
43:27
good chance. But if they keep Jelly Brussel
43:29
under 30 and make Cat a shooter, it's going to be it's going to
43:33
be tough for them to get out of it.
43:34
Atlanta is a sleeper team, but like you said earlier, I agree
43:37
with you on this point. They are partly about a year
43:39
out, but this is a scary matchup for the Nets.
43:42
In the first round. Oh, I agree.
43:43
I think Atlanta and Charlotte are two dangerous teams.
43:46
I like their hungriness. I don't like what Melo Ball did
43:49
the other day, but I like that hit.
43:51
They're hungry and they want to go out there and prove
43:53
themselves and they've got a tremendous future.
43:55
I'm not arguing with you with that.
43:57
But if they're somehow Atlanta wins this game and this series,
44:01
I'm telling you right now, the Knicks are going to look at this
44:03
roster and going to say, all right, this roster doesn't work.
44:06
This coach didn't work this year.
44:08
Maybe we have to clean house and and that might happen because
44:12
Leon Rose is on the hot seat. He's on a hot seat right now
44:15
too, because he needs to win. He has gone through the first,
44:19
second and now the Eastern Conference final, still hasn't
44:21
gotten to the finals. This is the year they believe
44:24
with no Hal Burton, Jason Tatum not on 100%.
44:27
They are the best team in the Eastern Conference, the most
44:30
depth. They have the most depth out of
44:32
any team going into the Eastern Conference.
44:34
So they should win. They should win.
44:36
You think they got more depth than Boston?
44:38
100% hundred. Percent.
44:40
We'll get it to Boston. Based off what?
44:42
What? Do you mean based off what?
44:44
I'm sure Baylor shot. Do you really want me to go into
44:48
that? I'll get it, don't worry.
44:50
When they play Boston, when they play Boston in the second round,
44:53
I promise you, I will get it done with your Boston Celtics.
44:57
Go ahead, Fish. I want to move, but that's a
45:00
good point. It's a good test to have Atlanta
45:02
instead of Toronto because it easily could have been Toronto
45:05
in this game. But because of how the season
45:07
ended, last game of the season, they get the Hawks.
45:10
I'd rather face a good team. You know, iron sharpens iron,
45:13
then going to face the Celtics because you got to be ready for
45:16
that. Tatums back.
45:17
I don't know if Tatum, I really don't know if he's going to be
45:20
able to do like A7 game series, you know what I'm saying?
45:23
And he's going to play 40 minutes every game.
45:25
I don't know. I think I I expect him to wear
45:27
out with Bridges and OG, two guys that are probably going to
45:31
be all NBA defense this year. Think OG's first team to be
45:34
honest with you first. Team, well, that's not
45:36
overlooked the the halts, but I don't think Tatum is definitely
45:39
80 percent, 90% back. So.
45:41
But if I remember, I remember Mikhail shutting him down, you
45:46
know, in the key moments when he was healthy.
45:48
No, no. In game three-game three of the
45:50
playoffs last year. We can't keep living off last
45:52
year momentum, OK, you guys are not.
45:54
I'm just saying that's when Tatum was healthy and we shut
45:57
him down. So he's 80% what you got on the
46:01
Celtics yet We really. Championship Hangover, OH.
46:04
Please. OK, all right, fine.
46:07
Maybe the Knicks do collapse. Maybe this doesn't work for
46:10
them. Giannis was having the best
46:12
season of his career. Just so you know. 27.6 His
46:16
career average is 24.1. Rebounds exactly the same
46:20
assists, 1/2 of the assists more a game.
46:22
His shooting percentage was 7% higher than his career average.
46:27
He was shooting 5% better at threes.
46:29
He was 33% from downtown not shooting a lot.
46:31
Obviously his PER the advanced stats it was about 6 1/2 higher
46:38
than his his career average. And he's won MVPS.
46:40
What were they doing? What was the team doing?
46:43
Well, I'm saying he got hurt and it was just the half season.
46:45
Before that, before that, even before that, What was that it?
46:47
Was thought of as like the second best MVP all.
46:49
Right, we got to move on. We.
46:50
Really. He was winning, or was he just
46:53
scoring? Are we speaking about Giannis
46:54
right? Now it was in Butu.
46:56
It was in Butu that Doc was teaching.
46:57
That this is not in the playoffs.
46:59
Why are we speaking about him, please?
47:02
I don't want to talk about Giannis when the Knicks get
47:04
eliminated or if they move on. If the Knicks go to the Finals
47:07
and win a championship, no Giannis, because he's not going
47:09
to the Knicks. They're going to keep that
47:11
roster. You're probably right.
47:14
Honestly, Karl Anthony Towns should have been a Hawk, and I
47:16
wouldn't be surprised if the Hawks are in on Karl Anthony
47:19
Towns. If the Knicks are wanting to
47:20
trade Karl Anthony Towns to bring in Giannis.
47:22
I'm just letting you know because they were very much in
47:26
when Karl Anthony Towns became free from the Timberwolves.
47:28
I just want to let you know that.
47:30
And I think it was. I think it was more important
47:32
than we talked about, Yannis, the New York Knits making it to
47:34
the finals just at fire. I disagree.
47:36
They're gonna make it to the finals this year.
47:38
I'm. Pretty sure all right I'm.
47:40
Pray to you for the sake of our show, but no.
47:42
All right, let's get into. Let's get into the Raptors and
47:45
the Cavaliers. The Cavaliers right now, they
47:48
got a roster. They hated James Harden at the
47:50
trade deadline, Adding him with a guy like Donovan Mitchell,
47:53
Evan Mobley, Jared Allen, this team is staffed.
47:56
This is a good team, Great defensive team, good offensive
47:59
rebounding team. One of the better rebounding
48:01
teams in the NBA, Very well coached.
48:03
Everybody knows what I feel about Kenny Atkinson.
48:06
I think this team is just one of the more Dominique Young and
48:10
veteran teams put together in this tournament.
48:13
They're great. They're a really good team.
48:15
I don't trust James Harden. I do not trust James Harden.
48:19
Now, do I think they're going to beat the Raptors?
48:21
Yeah. I mean, the Raptors have a good
48:23
roster. They're not a bad roster.
48:26
I like what they they they have on their team X Knicks, as we
48:29
all know. But they have Brandon Ingram,
48:31
Scotty Barnes, who I think he's very underrated.
48:33
RJ Barrett, Emmanuel Quickly, this is a good roster.
48:36
This is not a bad roster, but when you when you talk about the
48:41
Cavaliers, the Cavaliers played at a high level all season long.
48:44
They were fighting for that third seed with the New York
48:46
Knicks. At some points of the season.
48:48
They were fighting for that number two seed because they
48:50
were matched up with the Knicks very, very well.
48:53
But James Harden to me is not a playoff player.
48:55
Until he proves himself to be playoff James, he's never going
48:59
to prove to me that they can take it to the next level.
49:02
Now, maybe with a Donovan Mitchell and Donovan Mitchell's
49:05
leadership, I think that could help a guy like James Harden.
49:09
This is. But again, Kawhi Leonard was a
49:11
great, you know, leader over there with the Clippers.
49:13
It couldn't match up very well over there.
49:15
And they also have Paul George over there.
49:17
So it didn't work over there. So how is it going to work with
49:20
Donovan Mitchell? I like Evan Mobley, I like Jared
49:23
Allen and I think that when James Harden was traded to this
49:26
team, Jared Allen's offense got a lot better.
49:29
I think he became a different player on the pick and roll with
49:32
James Harden. So I want to see that in the
49:34
playoffs and I want to see them play team defense, which
49:36
sometimes they disappear doing in the playoffs.
49:39
In the regular season. They're up and they're down.
49:41
I like Kenny Atkinson, but this Raptor team, as much as
49:45
everybody says they're going to just run all over the Raptors, I
49:48
disagree. I think the Raptors are going to
49:50
give him a challenge. I think they're going to fight,
49:51
they're going to claw. They're not going to win, but if
49:54
they can bring this this series to a six game series, that's
49:59
going to tire out guys like James Harden.
50:01
James Harden has to prove to me that he's going to show up every
50:03
single game, play with his heart because I saw it, saw him do
50:07
with the Rockers, the Rockets year in and year out and he
50:09
couldn't do it. He could not do it.
50:11
So until he does it, I don't believe it.
50:14
And I'm going to bet that the Raptors keep this series to
50:17
maybe six games. Yeah, I can see that too,
50:19
because you look at Toronto shooting percentages, a lot of
50:21
their starting players outside of outside of Quigley, who's
50:24
44.3, they all have good shooting percentages and they
50:27
have a good defensive team. They've long team, they've
50:29
always built their team on good defensive depth that way.
50:32
And I think with Cleveland, they have a good defensive team, not
50:35
as good as last year or the year before when I believe the year
50:37
before they had the number one defense in the league that year.
50:40
And that's going to be a big key.
50:41
How much you can trust James Harden to just be a shooter, not
50:44
be a guy that just hogs the ball because Donovan Mitchell's
50:46
already a very high usage rate guy as it is.
50:48
And they have actually good bench depth this year when it
50:50
comes to scoring with DeAndre hunting.
50:51
Sir Jalen Tyson's been a nice pleasant surprise for them and
50:55
Kenny Atkinson is very good with those types of teams.
50:56
I agree with you. I think it'll be either like
50:58
Cavs at a hard fought 5 or 6 type series.
51:01
I do favor them right now with the experience so.
51:04
That's what I'm going to say. Cleveland should sweep down.
51:07
I don't see it going no more than five.
51:09
It's interesting you say you don't trust James Harden, but he
51:11
was scoring like he was averaging like 28 during that
51:14
Houston Rocket run that year. But I guess, yeah.
51:17
How many threes did he miss in that Game 7?
51:19
How many free throws did he win? That's what I'm saying.
51:21
He gave you 28. That is a good amount of points.
51:25
I won three for 17. Over there from three, get you
51:27
over there. Listen, the percentage doesn't.
51:30
Reminds me of John Starks, remember that?
51:33
I remember that pretty well in 90. 4 But I think, I think
51:36
Cleveland comes out of this easily.
51:39
The Raptors don't really got much shout out to BI.
51:41
He's from my hometown. But yeah, the Raptors don't
51:44
really have much. I do think they'll play hard,
51:46
play tough, but they just don't have a lot outside of the
51:50
scoring. Scoring wise and being
51:53
impactful, they don't really do well on the defensive end as
51:55
well. So I would say Cleveland wins
51:58
this four O 4 O1 and this really isn't really a test of what's
52:02
going to be what's going to be the difference maker as to
52:04
whether or not Cleveland is making shots.
52:06
If they making shots, then it'll be a blowout.
52:09
If they not, then the Raptors are kind of stay within reach.
52:11
But I I still got Cleveland pulling this out.
52:14
They got James Harden, they got Mobley, they got Jay Allen being
52:18
a true pure big. You know how to do this?
52:21
Pick and roll Mobley stretching the floor.
52:24
I could see them beating them 404.
52:26
Then there's the Sixers and the Celtics, and I know where Q is
52:29
going to go. The Celtics running away with
52:32
this series. Not necessarily.
52:34
It's not going to be as easy as he thinks it is.
52:37
I Paul George is going to be playing this series.
52:40
They're going to get that. Yeah, he's going to be playing
52:42
this. Season You referenced Paul Joyce
52:43
as an impact. Player No, I didn't say his
52:45
impact, but he's going to give you something.
52:47
That was the first play you. Mentioned well, because he's one
52:49
of those guys that is going to give you points and then you
52:52
have a guy like Tyrese Maxi. I think if he shows up and he
52:55
gives you 30 points, he's going to keep this team in this series
52:59
that I know everybody's going to say without Joel Embiid, this
53:03
team is not going to challenge the Celtics.
53:05
That Celtics problem all season long was their size.
53:08
I I still think that they're going to give him the most
53:10
problems out of any of the teams facing off in the first round in
53:13
the Eastern Conference. And there's a lot of reasons
53:15
why. And I think Tyrese Maxi has has
53:18
proven to him to be a superstar in his league.
53:20
I think people forget how great he is because he plays on the
53:22
76ers and he's got 2 butt munches, 2 big mouths over there
53:27
that don't shut up. They think they're better than
53:29
they are when they're not. I'm not saying Paul George isn't
53:31
a great player, he hasn't been a great player, but he's not worth
53:34
SGA and Williams. I'm sorry, he's nowhere close to
53:37
those kind of talents, talented young players.
53:39
But again, that's the Clippers. I'm not the Clippers GM and I
53:42
and I would fire the Clippers GM.
53:44
The other I would. I would tell the owner to sell
53:46
the team after what he did. All right, But here's the fact.
53:50
The Celtics are the better team. There's no argument to that.
53:53
Jaylen Brown has had a great season.
53:55
Jayson Tatum is a great playoff player against some teams.
54:00
So there are throughout the his career.
54:04
He hasn't showed up in some games against some series.
54:06
But Jason Tatum is not going to play more than 2728 minutes.
54:09
He's not He's coming back from an Achilles tear.
54:13
That is a unique injury for a player and he's what, 2829 years
54:18
old? I'm not saying Jason Tatum is
54:20
not going to be put his stamp to this this series.
54:23
He's going to put his stamp. I think their coach, and I'll
54:26
say this, the Celtics coach for the first time in his ton taking
54:30
over this team, I would say this was his best coaching job of his
54:35
career. I think it was.
54:36
I really I have to say it's me. Am I wrong?
54:39
No, I hate them all year. For you got two seed.
54:41
I thought it'd be a five seed. This was his best coaching.
54:45
This was his. This was his best coaching year.
54:48
I I've never been too fond of coaching and and you like
54:52
putting your hands up. I don't.
54:53
Know what I would actually I want?
54:54
I want to interrupt just one quick second.
54:55
What are you? Are you admitting that coaching
54:58
matters now? No, I didn't say that.
55:01
I didn't say that. He just did a great job.
55:05
I didn't say that. I didn't say that the regular
55:10
season means nothing. It's all about the playoffs.
55:13
I've been saying this over and over and over again.
55:16
The NBA regular season means nothing.
55:18
It means nothing. It goes 00 when the playoffs
55:21
start. I got to see what he does in the
55:23
playoffs and I've seen I've seen him go out there to the media
55:26
after the games, losing against the Knicks and then waving his
55:29
waving the flag when he played against this team and that team
55:32
and not giving him answers and all over the place.
55:34
I, I, I know what the Celtics and what management likes to do
55:38
over there, but I like the Celtics in this series.
55:41
I think they're much better than the 76ers.
55:44
But I still think this is going to go six games.
55:46
I think they're, they're going to be thorns and the Celtics
55:48
asses. They are going to be thorns.
55:51
And it's this is not going to be an easy ride for the the Boston
55:54
Celtics. They're not winning in in four
55:56
games. You can bet that they're not
55:58
winning in four games. Yeah, Tyrese Maxi has been an
56:00
unbelievable playoff player even when even that COVID shortened
56:03
year when he's a rookie I believe the Sixers made and
56:06
well, Ben Simmons and other guys didn't show up in that series
56:08
and I think they got swept. He still played very well and he
56:10
played very well against the Knicks two years ago too, when
56:12
the Knicks beat them in five games and a lot of the other
56:14
guys disappeared. Now we talked about all year old
56:16
the Celtic size being kind of a question mark, but Philly size
56:19
without him beat is very thin as well and.
56:22
That's why I think the Celtics are going to run away with this
56:24
game. Yeah, that's why I do too.
56:26
I kind of feel like it's a 5 game series because the 76ers
56:29
don't have that. Like 2 years ago they had decent
56:32
power forward depth and and front court depth.
56:34
I don't really see there's more wing depth with this team this
56:36
year with Nick's legend Quinton Grimes.
56:38
They drafted Edgecomb early on. It's more of that team that's
56:40
built to stop the three. They have a good primer defense,
56:42
but I think the Celtics could still dominate inside enough
56:45
even with that. And Q, you're right, the Celtics
56:46
do have some good shooting depths too with their forwards
56:49
with the from the three. Yeah, I have this game series
56:55
going probably 4-1, Max. At the end of the day, I don't
57:00
think that the well put the team together.
57:03
I think that, you know, Max, he would get his points, he would
57:06
score. Obviously he would be taking a
57:07
lot of his shots. Paul George would probably be a
57:10
seller himself based off the defensive sets and schemes that
57:13
they put together to guard him. But I think that what we're
57:17
misunderstanding about the sensors is the depth that we
57:20
have in regards to our bench and what we did.
57:22
I mean, we just had played our whole bench versus Orlando Magic
57:26
and actually beat them. So, you know, I think that was a
57:29
testament to show you how deep we actually are in regards to
57:32
depth on the bench. Guys can score.
57:35
Obviously. You got your, your, your, your
57:37
name for you got Jason Tatum, you got Jaylen Brown, you got
57:40
Derek. Why you got pain pitcher?
57:42
You know you got guys all over the place that can score at will
57:46
and also we take defenses very serious.
57:48
So I I see this game going 41420 no 4041 tops without embiid.
57:55
I don't think they have a middle present like y'all said before
57:58
they're short, they're very thin on the inside and I think Katie
58:02
will have a field day and you know, I just think they're just
58:06
outmatched in so many areas that I don't think they'll be able to
58:08
keep up. So I got this series going 404
58:10
one at the at the best. Pistons, Magic or Hornets?
58:15
We we could go back and forth. I think the Hornets are going to
58:17
win this this this playing game against the Magic.
58:21
I think the Magic could going to close.
58:23
They're going to fire their coach at the end of this season.
58:25
I think they're going to be looking for a new coach.
58:28
This is a good young roster, but they still haven't developed
58:30
their star players, their young players and I think they're
58:33
going to be looking for somebody else that can develop it.
58:35
But Detroit. I expect them against the
58:38
Hornets or the Magic to win the series.
58:41
But I'm going to tell you this right now, if the Hornets play
58:44
them in that series, it's going to be back and forth offense to
58:48
offense. They don't.
58:49
The Hornets don't play defense. But if it's a high scoring game
58:52
and that's the way the Pistons want to play the game, I'm going
58:55
to tell you right now the Hornets can win that series.
58:58
The that that Detroit has to play defense.
59:00
They got to play tight defense against this team.
59:03
Throw Lamello off the ball, make him force the ball into places
59:06
and shoot the ball into places he's uncomfortable doing.
59:09
He is not Steph Curry. And I expect the Pistons to win
59:12
four games to one. But if that's an all out running
59:16
gun, don't be surprised if Charlotte challenges him all the
59:19
way to seven games. Yeah, I mean, it's interesting
59:21
because I agree with you. I think the Hornets do win
59:23
against the Magic. I think Orlando will pose an
59:25
interesting test though for Detroit comparatively because of
59:28
their size with Ponchero and with Wagner inside and even
59:33
Wagner's brother coming off the bench too, is a good defender,
59:35
not a great offensive player. But that's what's interesting
59:37
about Orlando. I always thought they were a
59:39
team of the future type thing that never really amounts to
59:41
that because of injuries. And Charlotte, like you said,
59:43
are all they could definitely get a shootout with you if they
59:45
could play a fast-paced game. And Detroit, can they get the
59:48
depth scoring wise, They definitely have guys that have
59:51
come along, Duncan, Robinson, Tobias Harris, these surprise
59:54
players. I always like Robinson, have a
59:56
bad contract with them. Obviously the whole G and Ivy
59:58
scandal, they've rallied around that and still played very well
1:00:00
and held the one seed. So I think if it's if it's
1:00:02
Hornets, I think it's five games.
1:00:03
I think Charlotte steals won at home.
1:00:05
If it's Orlando, it's going to be a very tough, bruising type
1:00:08
series though. And that could wear the Pistons
1:00:09
down against the Cavs in the next round.
1:00:12
I don't think Orlando's going to even put up a fight, dude.
1:00:15
There's they're just on a spiral.
1:00:18
I would be very interested if I am a team with a top pick that
1:00:24
might be, I would say maybe #5 even #4 if you're not sold on
1:00:27
Caleb Wilson. I'm if they lose this game,
1:00:30
Orlando, Paulo Ponchero's going to be available.
1:00:34
They're going to be looking for a package and it's going to
1:00:36
include a top five pick in this year's draft.
1:00:39
I've been hearing this in multiple outlets this week
1:00:41
already that it's either him or Franz.
1:00:45
And since they got Franz's brother too, you're not getting
1:00:47
as much for Franz. He's been hurt.
1:00:49
So what, they play the same position.
1:00:51
This is the problem, right? They're not playing well
1:00:54
together. They they don't work well
1:00:56
together. That's why it's the code to be
1:00:57
the first scapegoat, if that. Happens.
1:00:58
They're not the. He is, but what if you know
1:01:02
whoever gets the 4th pick in the lottery isn't sold on Caleb
1:01:05
Wilson to stay healthy and they want only year 4, right?
1:01:15
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's what the NBA is built
1:01:18
off of. It's young and potential.
1:01:20
They're not going to chance a lottery pick for somebody that
1:01:23
I. Mean this is number one guy
1:01:25
though this is. No, I'm not saying that Pablo is
1:01:27
a good guy. I'm just saying that they're not
1:01:29
going to chance that or take that and then Pablo not going to
1:01:32
leave Orlando. He's the franchise player, so
1:01:34
he's going to stay there. Him and Bane is going to stay
1:01:37
locked in with Orlando. But in regards to this series
1:01:39
with Charlotte, they're not going to win it.
1:01:41
I think they're going to take out, like you said, fish.
1:01:43
They're swirling. So I think they're going to take
1:01:45
out. I think there are rumors Earl
1:01:47
about the coach in regards to this is his last games, So I
1:01:52
wouldn't be surprised if he didn't even play Pablo or they
1:01:55
you know, if he just take it out and let the bitch come out
1:01:57
there, let the bitch come out there and let them play like I'm
1:02:01
excited that your job is done. So it's not like they could you
1:02:04
know, it's not like you don't already know the wall, the
1:02:07
rightness on the wall. So I think Charlotte comes out
1:02:09
of that. I think they match up well bar
1:02:11
play wise with Detroit. Here's the thing with Charlotte,
1:02:15
the mellow gets into this mode where he really do take it back
1:02:19
to the playground. Now, I it is great for
1:02:21
entertainment and I do think that it works more often than
1:02:25
none. But when it comes to playoff
1:02:27
series, I would be surprised if he's able to get some of those
1:02:33
shots out, being that it would get more physical and he would
1:02:36
get less calls than he'd been getting.
1:02:38
I think they celebrated way too early in regards to that play
1:02:41
and victory that they won the other night versus Miami.
1:02:44
But so that lets me know right now they're not really
1:02:47
interested in, you know, going too far in the playoffs.
1:02:50
They kind of already had that championship run, but I think
1:02:53
that they would probably do anywhere between.
1:02:56
I think it's a 4140 type situation.
1:02:59
I do like Charlotte. They are hot right now, but I
1:03:02
look at them like I look at Atlanta as well.
1:03:04
They're young and I think they right there on the edge.
1:03:07
They probably about a year away before they actually make some
1:03:09
noise. Let's get to the Western
1:03:11
Conference. We're going.
1:03:11
We're going too long to argue about Detroit and Charlotte and
1:03:14
Magic. I mean, we're arguing about
1:03:16
teams. We're arguing hell because no.
1:03:20
I. I don't have to spill anything I
1:03:22
already. Told you what was going to
1:03:23
happen. 30 minutes. What are you?
1:03:26
What are you talking about? I went through that pretty damn
1:03:29
quick. Rockets in the Lakers now.
1:03:31
Luka Dajik not playing. Austin Reeves not playing.
1:03:34
We all know what's going to happen.
1:03:36
I told you, this is the year of the Rockets.
1:03:38
I believe it is. I really do.
1:03:40
I think they're very well coached.
1:03:41
Kevin Durant, Segan Thompson, This is a good team.
1:03:44
Very well, very good depth they had, they had to work.
1:03:48
Worry about the guard play. That's been a problem all season
1:03:50
long since Van Fleet got hurt before the season started.
1:03:54
But I think that this team is born to win this series.
1:03:58
I don't know if Lebron's going to be able to hold it on his
1:04:00
shoulders. Is he going to trust Bronie
1:04:02
James, your number one guy? He's.
1:04:04
Going. To happen, it's not going to
1:04:06
happen. I expect the Rockets to win four
1:04:09
games to 1. I think they run all over the
1:04:11
Lakers in this series. Yeah, I do too.
1:04:13
Especially if Luca doesn't come back until later in the series.
1:04:16
Like how much are you going to be able to?
1:04:17
Even if he comes back, he's going to be rusty.
1:04:19
And that's why that's where I think it's.
1:04:20
Going to be very Game 5. Yeah, exactly.
1:04:22
And I think none of these guys on the Lakers bench outside of
1:04:25
probably outside of probably couldn't, is that really that
1:04:27
great of shooting of a three? They're not good.
1:04:29
I know. And that's where Houston is
1:04:31
vulnerable. Like you said, they're back
1:04:32
courts a little questionable. They're three points.
1:04:34
Guard play is the problem. I know, and that's where the
1:04:36
Rockets I think can make it work in this series, especially now
1:04:39
long term. I do worry about that kind of
1:04:41
thing if they go to the second round.
1:04:42
But I agree with you, I think of four games to 1.
1:04:45
Yeah, I'm gonna go with I think they're going to go 41.
1:04:49
KD is my guy and I do think the Rockets are the better team.
1:04:52
But I think LeBron is going to show us something that we
1:04:55
haven't, you know, that we doubt that he can do at the age of 41.
1:04:58
I mean, he's had he's had a couple 30 point games this
1:05:01
season already. But I think that, you know,
1:05:04
Rockets inability to shoot and their inconsistency may catch up
1:05:08
with them for a game and it may take it to five, but I don't see
1:05:11
it going past five. But Lebrons and Brownie James on
1:05:14
the court. Stop with this garbage.
1:05:28
Oh my God. And then there's the
1:05:30
Timberwolves in the Nuggets. Now this series is interesting.
1:05:34
Anthony Edwards is not 100% healthy.
1:05:35
That's going to be a problem. But Julius Randall, Rudy Gobert,
1:05:38
this is a team that's loaded and they have gone far with this
1:05:42
roster before, But I something tells me that Nicola Yokich is
1:05:47
going to lead this team through this series.
1:05:50
Jamal Murray's had a good year when you look at his numbers,
1:05:52
they're good, but a lot of their secondary players have been up
1:05:55
and down and and they can't stay healthy.
1:05:58
But with Nicola Yokich and as long as he's 100% healthy going
1:06:02
into this series, I think they're going to rob.
1:06:04
I did die with him. I believe this series is not
1:06:06
going past six games. I, I, I think Nicola Yokich is
1:06:10
going to take over this series triple double.
1:06:12
I think he might have a quadruple double in this series
1:06:15
in some of these games. I'm telling you, I just don't
1:06:17
trust Anthony Edwards. We don't even know how healthy
1:06:20
he is. He's playing.
1:06:21
In this series. He's really not.
1:06:23
He's rushing back because they need.
1:06:25
Him. You know how he played in the.
1:06:26
Game I remember. We got that.
1:06:28
I remember you said that. I remember you said that.
1:06:31
Just remember you said that. But I have the Nuggets win four
1:06:33
games to do. Yeah, Anthony Edwards cute like
1:06:35
you're saying, does have a good a lot of good volume games.
1:06:37
He has had some disappearing acts too, but a lot of good
1:06:39
volume games in the playoffs. I like Minnesota size inside to
1:06:42
make it very interesting. I it's interesting because I
1:06:44
think the Nuggets defense is going to be in question, but
1:06:47
Minnesota's a lot like Houston. Do they have enough the outside
1:06:49
of Edwards Ross shooting ability to make that series competitive?
1:06:53
I don't think it's going to be a walk through for Denver, but I
1:06:55
still think they have the edge right now with the depth and
1:06:57
just the unknown. Minnesota, and I've been, I've
1:06:59
been duped by Minnesota in round, passed by I think Denver
1:07:02
after losing them two years ago, I think gets their revenge.
1:07:04
I'm going to say four games to two, but it's going to be a
1:07:06
tough series. Yeah, I think Jaden McDaniels is
1:07:10
named right. Yeah, I think he's the he's the
1:07:12
Ant factor for Minnesota, obviously.
1:07:15
Yeah, obviously it's led by Ant and when he come back, he's
1:07:19
going to be the main threat from the Minnesota.
1:07:22
But I don't, I think this game go to six.
1:07:24
I think this game go to six to seven, my thing, Anthony was
1:07:27
going to show up, show out, do what he do.
1:07:29
Jenny McDonald is going to do his thing.
1:07:31
Judas Randall, you know, he'll be consistent.
1:07:34
He'll do what he do. And yeah, he's more, he's more,
1:07:38
you know, that in between if factor and it's going to it's
1:07:41
going to be whether or not Eric Gordon can match his play or
1:07:45
whatnot. So I think that, you know, they
1:07:47
got a great chance of taking this to 7 Jamal Murray like had
1:07:50
a Goodyear, but I don't think that he's going to be no way
1:07:53
that much of it. No way quadruple, double by no
1:07:56
way at all. I'm willing to bet on that.
1:07:57
This is not going seven games. No way, no way.
1:08:01
No way. No way.
1:08:02
Well, you know, the same guy that you said is not ready.
1:08:05
He's, you know, not. I'm just letting him.
1:08:07
I'm just letting you know. Like the Hall of Fame.
1:08:09
This is not going seven games. They'll be lucky if it goes 6,
1:08:13
lucky if it goes 6, and then there's the number 7 Trail
1:08:18
Blazers and the Spurs. Now everybody thinks the Spurs
1:08:22
are going to run away with this series.
1:08:24
Everybody out of. Israel.
1:08:26
He he has been unbelievable. He's turning into a superstar in
1:08:30
the league and, and you like to see this kid from Israel really
1:08:33
developing without Chauncey Billups, with all the stuff
1:08:37
that's gone on over there, you, you would wonder how did the
1:08:40
Trail Blazers sneak into the playoffs this year?
1:08:42
But it's in, it's very impressive.
1:08:44
And it wasn't because of Henderson.
1:08:45
Let's let's be honest, it has not been because of Henderson,
1:08:48
but it's been very, very impressive what they've done.
1:08:51
But they're walking into a they're walking into a saw, a
1:08:55
saw of just complete dominance. And if you look at the San
1:08:59
Antonio Spurs, not only webbing Yama, you got Castle.
1:09:03
Dylan Harper's not healthy, but he's going to be back in the
1:09:06
series. Devin Vassell.
1:09:08
This is this is a team that has a lot of depth, very, very good.
1:09:12
Luke Command, This is a good team.
1:09:14
This is a good overall team. Great offense, great defense,
1:09:18
bigs, good guard play. They're going to be very, very
1:09:22
dangerous throughout the playoffs.
1:09:23
I think they're they'll be more interesting in the second round.
1:09:27
I, I, I congratulate the Trail Blazers making the playoffs and
1:09:30
least making the first round, but they're done.
1:09:33
There's no way they're going. They're going through the Spurs.
1:09:36
I think Spurs win four games to none.
1:09:38
They run all over the Trail Blazers.
1:09:39
Yeah, this is a tough match up for a team in Portland that
1:09:42
outside of Donovan, Klingon does not have a lot of size at Viha
1:09:45
is a 24.2 points per game scorer in the regular season good all
1:09:49
around shooter. But again, this is a system on
1:09:52
defense that obviously it's not Greg Popovich, but it's very
1:09:55
it's very similar to the concept that he likes to run where
1:09:57
they're really very physical on those wings.
1:09:59
And I think it's just too much depth of the Spurs have too with
1:10:02
Harper, even if Harper's not 100% is coming off the bench.
1:10:04
You got Kelvin Johnson. Underrated guy drafted by
1:10:07
Kentucky from Kentucky. Champani's been very good off
1:10:10
the bench. They have enough guys that are
1:10:11
double digit scores as well. I agree this is a sweep.
1:10:14
Yeah, I'm going 4 O as well. I don't see that.
1:10:17
Nothing that Portland has. What's the guy name again?
1:10:20
Danny Avia They also got sharp 20 point scorer this year too.
1:10:25
Yeah, but I I when you look at that last play and get they had
1:10:27
they had terrible was facing and he obviously he had a hell of a
1:10:31
game and he was able to get in and and create some momentum
1:10:34
with the and wars and being aggressive get to the basket.
1:10:38
But there's no way he could do that with Luke in there and
1:10:40
Wendy in the middle. I see this going nowhere fast.
1:10:43
I think this is a four O bring out the grooms.
1:10:46
It kind of reminds me of how remember the Knicks when they
1:10:49
first started going good and Julius Randle was doing the give
1:10:53
me the ball, I'll do everything type of offense in the playoffs
1:10:56
and it didn't work at all. That's what I see going to
1:10:58
happen in this series. I think you're right.
1:10:59
Four row boys. And then that's it.
1:11:03
And then there's the Golden State Warriors.
1:11:05
Now they have to. They have to beat the Suns, and
1:11:08
I think they're going to beat the Suns.
1:11:09
I really do. But if they beat the Suns, watch
1:11:12
out for the Golden State Warriors.
1:11:14
I'm telling you right now, I know, OK, C, they're smiling,
1:11:17
they're happy. They're playing either the Suns
1:11:20
or they're playing the Warriors, and the Warriors look like
1:11:23
they're going to be easy. Not if Steph Curry is healthy.
1:11:25
I'm telling you right now, if the Warriors beat the Suns,
1:11:28
which I believe they will, I think they could run right
1:11:31
through the Suns. After what they did to the
1:11:33
Clippers, I think they run right over.
1:11:35
Steph Curry could take over a game by himself.
1:11:38
And if they're matched up against the Thunder, as good as
1:11:40
the Thunder is, they do not want to play a healthy Steph Curry in
1:11:44
the playoffs. He's got, he wants to prove
1:11:46
himself. Could you imagine Steph Curry
1:11:49
and the Warriors take this series to seven games?
1:11:52
I I'm not saying it's going to happen, but could it happen?
1:11:55
Yeah. If Steph Curry scores 40 points
1:11:57
and gets these guys to play behind them, rebound and do
1:12:00
everything and he can take over a game.
1:12:02
We've seen him do it before. I'd be worried if I was OKC that
1:12:06
I have to match up against Steph Curry.
1:12:07
Yes, SGA, Sensational, Williams, all the talent that they have,
1:12:11
they got great size, they got great everything.
1:12:15
To me, you do not want to play the Warriors.
1:12:19
I'd rather play the Suns. I do not want to play Steph
1:12:22
Curry. And I know Steph Curry's licking
1:12:24
his lips. Could you imagine if Steph Curry
1:12:26
beats the OKC Thunder, the Champions from last year, and
1:12:30
say I've done what I need to do. I don't have to win a
1:12:32
championship. I did what I had to do.
1:12:34
I knocked off the Champions. I knocked off the Buzzards, the
1:12:39
team that nobody can beat, the team that everybody says is
1:12:42
unstoppable, the OKC Thunder. I'm telling you right now, watch
1:12:46
out. Don't tell me, watch out.
1:12:49
Fish Guess what we get to get in this game, too.
1:12:51
We get Draymond Green versus Dylan Brooks again, which means
1:12:54
you can. Bring like.
1:12:54
That like lab graphic you had last year?
1:12:57
I definitely made some Draymond Dylan Brooks graphics that
1:13:00
should be fun. He'll in this playing game that
1:13:03
they beat the Clippers in. Porzingis played 28 minutes at
1:13:07
20 points, 8 of 12 shooting, 3 of 6 from 3, five boards, 5
1:13:12
assists, 2 blocks. That works.
1:13:15
If they can get that out of him, that means it'll be they they
1:13:18
have a chance to do something. That means it'll be if the
1:13:20
Warriors away, it'll be Nick's legend percepts Porzingis versus
1:13:23
Nick's legend Isaiah Heart inside I'm.
1:13:25
Telling you. I don't expect it.
1:13:27
Well, I think Chet would be on him, right?
1:13:28
And that's really how they would handle it.
1:13:30
And it's kind of a similar player, but younger, more
1:13:32
athletic and better version of Porzingis today, right?
1:13:35
But Porzingis has the size Chet. Chet weighs like 200 lbs soaking
1:13:38
wet. So but he don't bang.
1:13:41
Well, I that's, that's the thing.
1:13:42
How healthy is Porzingis? Right, Right.
1:13:44
Is is he healthy because he's has that weird condition.
1:13:46
We don't even know what it is. They won't tell us what his
1:13:49
condition is. It's some weird type of health
1:13:51
issue that he can't play, you know, as many minutes back.
1:13:54
Yeah. That same problem with the
1:13:55
Celtics, too, when they wouldn't reveal his.
1:13:56
Injury, I, I think it might be like a genetic thing.
1:13:58
He's just going to have to live with the whole they.
1:14:00
They don't want to tell anybody what it is.
1:14:02
Yeah, I picked the Suns the way I know it sounds as crazy as it
1:14:05
is. I think the Warriors has been a
1:14:08
terrible show all year. Definitely congratulations there
1:14:11
for being the Clippers. I think most of the Clippers
1:14:13
beat themselves was a costly turnover on an out of bounds
1:14:16
play and and then Kawhi got picked off by Draymond.
1:14:21
That was, you know, one of those free 1 offs and whatnot.
1:14:25
But I think the Warriors don't that they're not going to
1:14:29
perform versus the Sun. I think the Sun is going to make
1:14:31
the necessary defense adjustments that they should
1:14:33
have made versus Portland, which is going to get in the edge.
1:14:36
I can see Dylan Brooks and Draymond Green having a field
1:14:40
day of memes and all kinds of crazy acts.
1:14:43
And it's it's going to be a good day.
1:14:44
But I think the Phoenix Kapoor is this one that's.
1:14:46
Why? I think this is like kind of
1:14:47
their Super Bowl for them. That's why I think the Suns win
1:14:51
too, because I think it'll be a chippy game and they're they're
1:14:53
a better defensive team. And either way, I think OK C
1:14:55
sweeps the other one. And the refs been letting them
1:14:57
play like Steph couldn't get a call last night.
1:15:00
He was getting banged up and they wouldn't give him no call.
1:15:02
So I think it's it's going to be very rough for them to come out
1:15:05
of that. So you're saying Steph sounds
1:15:07
like at the star treatment like SGAQ?
1:15:09
Yeah, he won't get no star treatment.
1:15:10
We'll see. I'm telling you the.
1:15:13
Warriors Steph still got 35 though.
1:15:15
Yeah. Warriors.
1:15:16
The Warriors are going to. Win first half he had like 8
1:15:18
they're. Going to win, I'm telling you,
1:15:20
they're going to get out of that series.
1:15:21
They're going to get out of that game against.
1:15:23
I believe they're beating the Suns.
1:15:25
I don't know if they get out of OKC, and I'm not saying they
1:15:27
will, but I think they're going to give.
1:15:29
They're going to give. Oh, if they match up against
1:15:31
OKC, trust me, they're not going to run all over the Warriors.
1:15:35
I'm telling you right? Now it adds to the SGA non
1:15:38
playing fourth quarter stat. That's what we would do.
1:15:41
That's what's going to happen. If that shows up, if they show
1:15:43
up at the doorsteps, are they seeing the player?
1:15:45
I don't know what you're drinking tonight.
1:15:46
You're lost. I'm telling you, you're lost.
1:15:49
Holy water. Could I drown you in that holy
1:15:54
water? I mean, seriously.
1:15:55
Anyways, my deuce of the day. The deuce of the day you log not
1:16:01
a log. I don't have a log but.
1:16:10
Right, so that was a little loud.
1:16:12
My juice of the day goes to Tiger Woods.
1:16:15
Tiger Woods seems like he's in every single story out there.
1:16:20
Tiger Woods attorney is fighting prosecutors right now and
1:16:23
attempts to subpoena the 15 time major champions of prescription
1:16:29
drug records from the pharmacy, according to court records filed
1:16:33
Wednesday. In a response to the state's
1:16:36
motion for a subpoena, Attorney Douglas Duncan wrote that Woods
1:16:42
has to a constitutional right to privacy interests in the
1:16:48
prescription records and request a hearing to hearing to
1:16:52
determine whether prosecutors should be allowed to obtain
1:16:56
Woods records on filing at Lewis Pharmacy in Palm A, Palm Beach,
1:17:02
FL. So the story is his attorney
1:17:05
doesn't want this to come out, but prosecutors want it to come
1:17:08
out. They want to know what he's
1:17:09
taking, What is he doing? But the fight is on.
1:17:13
Tiger Woods is arguing or his lawyer is arguing away out of
1:17:18
this mysterious thought that he wasn't on anything.
1:17:22
He wasn't taking any of the drugs.
1:17:24
Yeah, right. I mean, Tiger Woods has done a
1:17:27
lot of crazy things. I'm telling you right now, this
1:17:30
story is going to get worse if it is Vikings, perkiness,
1:17:34
Percocets or Oxycontins. And what he was taking, he was
1:17:37
driving under the influence. It only tells one thing.
1:17:41
This guy doesn't care about anybody but himself, and he's
1:17:43
going to kill somebody if he doesn't.
1:17:45
Somebody doesn't stop him. So that is my do so today for
1:17:48
Tiger friggin Woods. Wonderful.
1:17:51
He's just a wonderful guy. He's Q's best buddy.
1:17:54
I don't know. He's his best buddy.
1:17:56
He loves Green Jacket. Yeah.
1:17:59
You got a. Green jersey behind you.
1:18:00
Not a green jacket, but great. Father.
1:18:02
Yeah, great father, wonderful father, wonderful father.
1:18:06

1:18:10

He flipped the car, but he's innocent, you know, of all these
1:19:13
allegations at the time. He's innocent.
1:19:15
He wasn't on anything, even though he didn't want to take
1:19:17
any tests. Innocent, that.
1:19:19
You have the right to refuse. I'll give you the law.
1:19:22
I'll give you. The right to take a dump, and
1:19:24

1:19:26
records. Anyways, ladies and gentlemen,
1:19:29
when we come back, we got a lot more to go.
1:19:31
I don't know if we're going to have a guess, but we're waiting.
1:19:33
Well, hopefully we'll have Giacomini, but if we don't, we
1:19:37
get a lot more left for the show, a lot more entertainment.
1:19:41
When we come back, we have the well we would have Giacomini,
1:19:44
but we have save Your tears. We have the NFL draft preview.
1:19:47
We'll get into that. Let's parlay in like Flynn.
1:19:50
We got it all. We'll be back after this.
1:19:55
The New York sports loudmouth sportsman ads.
1:20:00
All right guys, Aaron Fishman here with your sportsman.
1:20:03
I've got a couple of stories for you before we get into the
1:20:05
scores this evening. ESP NS Don Van Natta and Jeff
1:20:09
Passan reported on Wednesday that the MLBPA has fired two top
1:20:12
executives as a federal investigation into alleged
1:20:15
financial improprieties in the union has apparently revealed
1:20:19
some serious wrongdoing. The MLBPA fired their chief
1:20:23
operating officer Xavier James and the head of Human Resources,
1:20:28
Michael O'Neill, which as you might remember follows the
1:20:30
resignation of MLBPA executive Director Tony Clark back in
1:20:35
February. Clark's improprieties where he
1:20:38
were made well known at the time of his stepping down as
1:20:40
apparently he had been self dealing, paying his his
1:20:44
sister-in-law to be his personal assistant in a special office
1:20:47
built near his home, then carried on an affair with her,
1:20:50
scandalizing the league, destroying his own family.
1:20:53
While the reasons behind the recent firings are currently
1:20:56
still unknown, sources say that Adam Braverman, the attorney
1:20:59
conducting the internal investigation, delivered a
1:21:00
report to the MLBPA Wednesday revealing these findings, which
1:21:04
apparently were bad enough to get these guys fired.
1:21:07
Former Major League pitcher and former Met Chris Capuano will
1:21:11
take over as CEO of the union and Ian Penny will be the
1:21:15
interim head of HR. All of this while scandals
1:21:18
related to players tanking games, gambling, and a likely
1:21:22
lockout next season only seem to spell trouble for Major League
1:21:25
Baseball going forwards and make a strike next season more and
1:21:29
more likely every day. It is being reported Thursday
1:21:33
that former NBA guard and assistant coach Damon Jones will
1:21:37
appear in court on April 28th for a change of plea hearing,
1:21:40
which will likely change his not guilty plea to a guilty one in
1:21:44
the NBA betting scandal that has rocked the league since before
1:21:47
the start of the 20252026 season.
1:21:50
Jones had originally pleaded not guilty to separate indictments
1:21:52
related to rigging poker games and providing sports bettors
1:21:55
with non public information about injuries to Lakers stars
1:21:59
LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Jones's attorney Kenneth
1:22:03
Montgomery told ABC News that Jones is not cooperating with
1:22:07
the federal government and hasn't turned on other
1:22:09
defendants, including Hall of Famer Chauncey Phillips and
1:22:12
who's the highest profile player charged, and now former Heat
1:22:17
guard Terry Rozier, who was released last Friday.
1:22:19
Jones had long been tied to LeBron James and was a
1:22:22
sharpshooter back in his playing days.
1:22:24
Along with LeBron at the Cavs. These days, prosecutors alleged
1:22:28
Jones was helping the Gambino, Genovese and Banano crime
1:22:32
families RIP offs unsuspecting poker players on top of giving
1:22:36
betters inside information. Jones didn't win a title as a
1:22:39
player, but he was the Cavs shooting coach when LeBron and
1:22:42
Kyrie upset the Golden State Warriors for the 2016 title.

in a little while. We're going to bring it back for
1:26:03
the NBA playoffs. Everyone gets $15 salary cap.
1:26:07
You get to pick one player from each column that I'm going to
1:26:09
show you in a second. And then there's a reward, all
1:26:14
right? And the reward will be next
1:26:16
episode or next week after we play these games.
1:26:19
And everyone, every both series are going to get to play three
1:26:22
games that we're going to count up games 1-2 and three.
1:26:26
I'm sorry, they're going to be game Yeah, games one and two.
1:26:29
Just games one and two and we're going to mine up the stats and
1:26:33
the winner gets the compliment chorus where you have to give.
1:26:38
At least. 51% positive comments to the winner.
1:26:45
Actually, we're not the. Winner.
1:26:47
Not me. And we'll keep a season long
1:26:49
playoffs, long standings, first place worth 5 points, second or
1:26:53
third versus 1. Let's take a look at the board
1:26:56
for today. We're going to pick two series.
1:26:59
The series are going to be Denver and Minnesota and the
1:27:05
Knicks facing the Hawks. So I'm going to go through it.
1:27:08
If you are not watching with us live or if you're not watching
1:27:12
on video, come and check us out on video.
1:27:16
We are on on Spotify and Apple as well as all our stuff housed
1:27:21
on our New York. I want to do sports.
1:27:23
Loudmouth, why are you interrupting me re giving the
1:27:26
read of our page? Do you not want people to come
1:27:29
to our page? How about rattling her?
1:27:31
That's right. He just wants to be like, I
1:27:33
don't know. He wants us to go back to our
1:27:35
old analytics segment. That's what all sucker.
1:27:38
It's a different segment. That was a different type of
1:27:40
show, but we'll take this forwards $5 per again, everyone
1:27:44
gets 15. Jalen Brunson is here for five,
1:27:48
all right, Jamal Murray is 4 at point guard, CJ McCollum for
1:27:53
three, Dante D Vincenzo for two and Bruce Brown is 1.
1:27:57
This is going by ESPN's depth chart positions.
1:28:00
All right, everyone will lock them in at that position.
1:28:01
You have to take the person from that column, one person from
1:28:04
each column. At 2, guard Anthony Edwards is a
1:28:06
$5 player, followed by Nah, that's Nick at Nikhil Alexander
1:28:10
Walker, who is currently the leader for most improved player
1:28:14
in the Vegas odds this year as well.
1:28:16
Run away with that. Possibly Cam Johnson for three,
1:28:19
Jaden McDaniels for two. I'm sorry I went to next column.
1:28:22
Josh Hart is the three dollar two guard, Christian Braun for
1:28:25
two and IO Desunmo who the the Bulls thought they didn't need
1:28:30
any more for a dollar, playing some big minutes at the three
1:28:34
spot. The small forward Dyson Daniels
1:28:37
for five, Mikhail Bridges for four, Cam Johnson 3, Jaden
1:28:40
McDaniels 2 and Jonathan Jonathan Kaminga coming off the
1:28:44
bench for a dollar is a nice value at power forward.
1:28:47
We were just talking about him. Jaylen Johnson is the $5 player,
1:28:51
Julius Randall for four, OG Ann and Nobi for three, Aaron Gordon
1:28:55
the good value at 2 and Peyton Watson for a dollar.
1:28:58
And then at center, no surprise here.
1:29:00
Nikola Yokich, $5 player, Karl Anthony Towns for four, Rudy
1:29:04
Gobert followed by Onyeka Okongwu and let's give.
1:29:09
I don't think Mitch wants that. Mitch is the dollar player.
1:29:13
Mitchell Robinson. All right, let's go to the guys.
1:29:19
Let's start it off. This is the first one.
1:29:20
We'll go with the Nithmeister to start it off.
1:29:24
Nith, give us your team. All right, so I'm going to go
1:29:28
Dante Deficenso dildo. I'm going to go.
1:29:34
Let's see Josh Hart, Mikhail Bridges, duty Dodger Owen, Aaron
1:29:45
Gordon, then Nicola yoga pitch. I love Lisa.
1:29:48
How did you? Do the math.
1:29:49
What's the math on that? So you said Divanchenta, who is
1:29:51
your shooting guard? Josh Hart.
1:29:55
Josh Hart, that's 5. Is that your cucumber or are you
1:29:58
happy to see me and McHale Bridges McHale.
1:30:01
Bridges, you're over by a dollar, Nathan.
1:30:03
Blowjob. Over by a dollar.
1:30:05
All right, then I'll, I'll take Aaron Gordon.
1:30:07
I'm going to put Peyton Watson. Squeeze the cheese.
1:30:09
All right, Hayden Watson for Nathan.
1:30:13
So I got Dante Hart Bridges, Hayden Watson and Nicola Yokich.
1:30:18
Let's go. I'll do this next one.
1:30:21
I am going to take Jalen Brunson at point guard.
1:30:28
I want Jalen Brunson. I'm going to be rooting for me.
1:30:30
If it doesn't allow me to win, I don't care.
1:30:33
I'm going to take Dosunmu at 2 guard.
1:30:36
Pulled it out of my ass. And I'm going to take Kaminga
1:30:40
you. Got to have a.
1:30:41
Dollar as well. All right, that gives me $8
1:30:46
left. I then also take Yokich.
1:30:51
I hope not. And that leaves me OG 43.
1:30:56
What a threesome. That's an oldie and a goodie
1:31:02
right there. Jaylen Brunson, Iodosa MU,
1:31:05
Jonathan Kamingo, OG Ananobi and Nicola Yokich.
1:31:09
Let's throw it to the speedster. All right, give me McCullum
1:31:14
Gross, give me Anthony Edwards. Unfortunately, I'm also going to
1:31:18
take Watson. I know somebody took Watson
1:31:20
before. Very underrated bench player for
1:31:22
Denver. That gives me 9.
1:31:26
Let's go. Let's go McDaniels, and we'll
1:31:31
go. Dissect.
1:31:34
I'm sorry, who'd you say for Singer?
1:31:36
Cat and then McDaniels fucking. Damn.
1:31:39
One of each number. All right, so I got CJ McCollum,
1:31:42
Anthony Edwards, Jaden McDaniels, Peyton Watson, and
1:31:45
Carl and Eaton Towns. Q It's up to you.
1:31:51
Let me go Jaden McDaniels. It's loose.
1:31:55
And Gordon, Anthony Edwards, Nicoli, Watch How I Eat Myself
1:31:59
and Let Me Do. If Cox could kill.
1:32:05
Who'd you say? A2 Guard.
1:32:09
I'm just picking names. I ain't really picking them too
1:32:11
well. You.
1:32:12
Got a $15 budget? I know I'm on a $15 budget, I'm
1:32:15
just picking the names. You just need to take one from
1:32:17
each. Just has to be 1 per each column
1:32:20
and each column is by two. Oh yeah, you still have to do
1:32:23
that by don't. Don't worry, it's here, niff and
1:32:24
mess. Up.
1:32:25
Yeah, I got it. I got it.
1:32:26
I got it. OK, So I need shooting guard.
1:32:27
I got Anthony Ellis. I think you are going to only
1:32:31
have $1.00 left at that point, so we'll give you Bruce Brown,
1:32:36
yeah. You want to be nipped and save a
1:32:38
dollar. No, he can't.
1:32:40
He has to have a player speedy. Problem not that road.
1:32:45
Yes, the problem. Yep.
1:32:46
All right. So Brown for I got Brown,
1:32:48
Edwards, McDaniels, Gordon and Yokich.
1:32:51
And that leaves us with our host, Mr. Omar, What you got for
1:32:54
us? All right.
1:32:55
I'm going to go with Jalen Bronson.
1:32:56

Kia Alexander Walker. That's for the Hawks.
1:33:06
That's the Hawks. I'm going to go with I'm going
1:33:11
to go with Josh Hart. It's like we have the first
1:33:15
Heckler and save your tears. No, he was heckling everybody.
1:33:24
I'm going to go with hold on. You had all this time.
1:33:29
I don't look at it, I'm just looking.
1:33:31
You stop hitting them boys over there about Neil.
1:33:33
Shut up, you little pain in the ass.
1:33:36
I'll go with Cam Johnson. I'll go with well he lost.
1:33:45
Got 5 left. I know you got 4 left.
1:33:52
He's done. He tried to get out of knits.
1:33:55
No I'm not. I got 4 left, right, Yep all.
1:34:01
Right. All right, I'll go with.
1:34:11
Maybe I should check that. I'll go with Jalen Bronson.
1:34:16
I'll go with Josh Hart. I'll go with Jonathan Kaminga.
1:34:23
How many do I have now? 99.
1:34:26
All right. Now I'm going to go with Nicole
1:34:28
Yokich, definitely. And I'm going to go with Julius
1:34:32
Randall, right? You got one left.
1:34:35
Yeah, Bronson and that. Yokich I had 9 right?
1:34:37
Yeah, and then Yokich made it 14.
1:34:38
Yokich. So you got to go, Peyton Watson.
1:34:41
Peyton Watson But wait a second. I had 9 when I did.
1:34:45
When I you have. Bronson Heart that's 8, Kamega
1:34:49
is 9, Watson's 10 and Yokich is 15.
1:34:52
OK, OK, I thought I had let's. Take a look at what everybody
1:34:56
did. Here's the full board.
1:34:59
It looks like we got 2 Brunsons. We got a couple of Hearts and
1:35:03
Edwards. We got a couple of Commingas and
1:35:06
McDaniels, Watson and Jokic. Real popular and only one person
1:35:11
didn't take Jokic. Speedy took Cat.
1:35:14
We'll see the results next week for the first episode.
1:35:18
Save your tears. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
1:35:22
we're going into our NFL draft preview.
1:35:25
We're going first round offensive players.
1:35:27
We ready. Let's go.
1:35:29
Come on, let's go. Throw it out.
1:35:30
Throw it out. All right, Speedy, I want you to
1:35:33
put on the NFL music and we're going to get into this preview
1:35:37
crybaby right now for the NFL draft.
1:35:43
So the way we're going to do this guys we're going to I broke
1:35:46
down the the Top 40 of and Speedy helped out of the Dane
1:35:54
Bruegler, the athletics, the Beast guide.
1:35:56
It's the most comprehensive guide out there.
1:35:58
I have a subscription to the Athletic.
1:35:59
That guy's been the best in the business in my opinion, past
1:36:01
five years. Here's I we just took those
1:36:04
prospects and we're going to go through them in different
1:36:06
categories. We're going to start tonight.
1:36:09
If we get that music a little louder, it's top 10 picks.
1:36:13
So here's the four guys that we're going to start our
1:36:16
conversation with, and I'm going to give you the rankings that he
1:36:19
has as the best players in his big board.
1:36:21
So what he thinks they would be overall ranked at Jeremiah love
1:36:25
#2, Fernando Mendoza #3, Spencer Fano, the tackle from Utah,
1:36:33
right tackle from Utah #8 and Carnell Tate, the wide receiver
1:36:38
from Ohio State at #10 Let's start, however, with Mendoza.
1:36:44
As we all know, he's going to be the number one pick.
1:36:46
Errol. I love Mendoza.
1:36:47
I think he's going to be a great player in the NFL.
1:36:50
It doesn't matter where he goes. I think he has that potential.
1:36:53
We saw what he did with Indiana this year, national
1:36:57
championship, Miami, playing against the team that he rooted
1:37:00
for in his hometown, his home city, Miami, and doing it in
1:37:04
front of everybody. I think this guy's a slam dunk.
1:37:07
He is going to go to the Raiders.
1:37:08
He's going to be the number one pick.
1:37:09
He's going with I, I, I'll say this, Clint is a good coach.
1:37:13
He's a young goal offensive coordinator.
1:37:15
They're going to bring in Kirk Cousins.
1:37:16
Kirk Cousins is going to help him develop.
1:37:18
I, I think it's a great pick for the Raiders.
1:37:20
I think it's a slam dunk. Yeah, he's a surefire guy.
1:37:23
When you look at even though he didn't only started the one year
1:37:25
at the highest level, he still started a couple years of Cal as
1:37:28
well, bumped around college football.
1:37:30
Like he definitely has the adversity factor.
1:37:31
You need not just not as much with the physical traits, but
1:37:33
still can extend plays. And I think he's going to with a
1:37:36
coach in the Raiders, with Clint Kubiak.
1:37:38
That's been around a lot of different quarterbacks,
1:37:40
obviously this year, his peak. But he was with the 49ers, with
1:37:42
Purdy. He was with the Vikings for a
1:37:43
little while when Cousins was there, when he first got there,
1:37:46
remember, he had that really bad first year and then Kubiak got
1:37:48
there. Makes a difference.
1:37:49
I think Mendoza will be a very instant impact player in this
1:37:52
league. Yeah, I'm going to say I think
1:37:56
he yeah, definitely going number one overall, but I don't think
1:37:59
it plays out the way that we are anticipated to pay out.
1:38:02
I think the Vegas is just a shame of itself.
1:38:05
They all over the place. Obviously they did get some
1:38:07
stability with hiring some new coaches and some new advisors
1:38:11
with Kirk Cousin doing over the quarterbacks and whatnot.
1:38:13
But I just don't see their Vegas going anywhere fast anytime
1:38:18
soon. So I'm going to say that it's
1:38:20
going to it's going to be no more pick, but he probably take
1:38:22
about two to three. I think he's like a camboy
1:38:24
situation in Tennessee where you know, it takes some time for him
1:38:27
to actually blossom into the league.
1:38:30
I I personally think he showed everyone everything you didn't
1:38:33
need anyone needed to see in the playoffs this year undefeated.
1:38:37
You know, guts clutch everything you want balls layered all three
1:38:42
levels on the money. You know, great ball placement
1:38:45
as well on the on the receivers, not just in the area right on
1:38:49
the money. This guy's for real.
1:38:50
They they got a long way to go though.
1:38:52
You're absolutely right too, but it's definitely a good start for
1:38:55
sure. All right, next guy is Jeremiah
1:38:58
Love Errol. So Jeremiah Jeremiah Love
1:39:01
averaged 6.9 yards a carry both in 2024 and 2025 and 40
1:39:08
touchdowns the past two seasons. They're saying he's the best
1:39:12
running back coming out since Saquon Barkley.
1:39:15
I think he might even be better than Saquon Barkley and
1:39:18
Tennessee is definitely not going to skip on this guy.
1:39:22
We know what Robert Sala likes to do.
1:39:23
He likes to run the ball. Breeze hole.
1:39:26
We all know what he likes to do. I think this is a slam dunk for
1:39:29
Tennessee. He's a great runner.
1:39:31
He can catch the ball in the backfield. 280 yards receiving
1:39:35
last year, 10.4 catch, 3 touchdowns the other year before
1:39:40
that 230 seven, 8.5 yards per reception and two touchdowns.
1:39:45
The guy is an unbelievable talent.
1:39:47
Very nice kid. Play for Notre Dame.
1:39:50
He thought he was robbed playing in that tournament last year.
1:39:53
Miami snuck in, Miami win, went to that and made that run all
1:39:57
the the way to play Indiana in the championship game.
1:39:59
But sensational player, I think he's going to be one of the best
1:40:03
running backs we've seen come out of the draft in 10 years.
1:40:06
Great power, speed, everything. Love them.
1:40:09
Yeah, as good of an athletic profile you can get, as good of
1:40:12
secondary moves as you can get. And you're saying still was good
1:40:14
with the receiving game as well. Now it'll be interesting.
1:40:17
Obviously the debate is always the running back versus the
1:40:20
positional value type thing. And you saw that kind of take a
1:40:22
hit with Ashton Gente last year. He started very slow with the
1:40:24
Raiders and Qi think they were referring to that with the
1:40:26
situation with the Titans earlier.
1:40:29
Like will that be able to fit if if the Titans are still just as
1:40:31
bad? Their offensive line we know has
1:40:33
had problems and I don't think anyone here trusts Bambi Sala as
1:40:36
a head coach and Brian Dabels and offensive coordinator has
1:40:39
been up. And so will they be able to use
1:40:40
him correctly if they and being ones drafting, if they don't
1:40:43
draft him, obviously there's a wild card.
1:40:44
The Giants draft him. I don't want them to.
1:40:46
But and you definitely see him in another offense, maybe the
1:40:48
Chiefs. And if he goes there, maybe a
1:40:51
good chance to explode. But he's gonna be a freak
1:40:52
athlete no matter what. Yeah, I agree.
1:40:54
I think he's a definitely a freak athlete.
1:40:56
I'm thinking that he won't go top five with that four to
1:41:00
Tennessee. I think he may, I think.
1:41:01
The Titans will draft him, I just don't know if I would if I
1:41:03
were them. I don't think they'll draft
1:41:05
them. I think they're probably going
1:41:06
to go Francis and kind of team get a tackle for Cam, kind of
1:41:09
have that camaraderie. Love falls down to seven with
1:41:12
the Commanders. That's something that I'm
1:41:13
thinking is going to happen is more so than he will go to the
1:41:16
Tennessee. Carnell Tate, the Ohio Statewide
1:41:19
receiver, obviously a national champion of this year.
1:41:22
The year before most people looked at him as the second best
1:41:24
wide receiver on his team, but that's not a slight to him.
1:41:27
Here's some interesting stats. He's an outside receiver and X
1:41:30
receiver. 88.9% outside lined up Brian Hartline.
1:41:36
Tons of success again the last year of Brian Hartline, that
1:41:40
wide receiver factory at Ohio State.
1:41:41
We all know all the names associated with him.
1:41:44
Now listen to this. He caught 77% of his targets in
1:41:48
2025, which was the best of all receivers in college football
1:41:53
with an average depth of target of 12 yards or more.
1:41:57
He has the, what they're saying, some of the best hands anyone
1:42:00
who's come into the draft has and runs really good routes and
1:42:04
runs pretty well. He's going to be the first wide
1:42:07
receiver off the board. There's no question that he is.
1:42:09
We've heard what Paige said. She he's the one.
1:42:11
He was the alpha male on the football field when they were
1:42:14
looking at the wide receivers. He had 875 yards last year.
1:42:19
He had 9 touchdowns, but he was in and out.
1:42:21
He couldn't stay healthy. But the guy has tremendous
1:42:23
hands, big, strong hands. They expect him to be an Odell
1:42:27
Beckham type of player coming out of the draft, can run
1:42:30
routes, do all the things that you want a wide receiver to do.
1:42:33
A lot of people were saying the Giants were looking at him #5 I
1:42:36
think he falls out of the top five, but he's definitely going
1:42:40
to be the first guy off the board.
1:42:41
I definitely top ten. Love the kid.
1:42:44
I think he's going to be a spectacular player in the NFL.
1:42:47
Yeah, you mentioned the hands fish.
1:42:48
It's going to be the biggest thing that'll make him impactful
1:42:50
right away. Now I I think it's quickness is
1:42:52
agility off the line of scrimmage and I'm trying to
1:42:54
break the press. It's still kind of a concern for
1:42:56
me. And you saw that in particular
1:42:59
Big 10 matchups this year where Jeremiah Smith, if they were, if
1:43:02
he was being double teamed, Tate was being bracketed.
1:43:04
And that was where I where I think the coaches have to figure
1:43:07
it out, whether drafts and whether it is the Giants or
1:43:09
whether it is somebody else in the top 10.
1:43:11
Because I do agree, Errol, if the if the Giants don't draft
1:43:13
him, he could fall out of the top ten just because there's
1:43:15
other positions available, the offensive line in the defense.
1:43:17
But that's the only weakness I see in his game.
1:43:19
He'll be a good receiver besides that, but he just got to get
1:43:21
quicker. Yeah, same here.
1:43:23
I think that you guys covered it well in regards to him.
1:43:25
I think he's outstanding, very fast, good hands.
1:43:29
Like you said, it's Kate can catch the ball.
1:43:31
If you just saw in the highlight right there versus Wisconsin, he
1:43:34
went up and got the ball. So very aggressive receiver.
1:43:36
You like to see that coming out, coming out of college and then
1:43:39
just trying to train, just trying to train him on the
1:43:41
mechanics and different things you need to learn to get past
1:43:44
pro corners and whatnot. So I I don't think he'd go past
1:43:47
the Giants. I think the Giants pick him and
1:43:50
football Giants got him one. I I would love for them to get a
1:43:54
guy like that and put them opposite neighbors.
1:43:56
I think they need a lot. I don't know if I'd go wide
1:43:58
receiver there. There's some other guys I'd like
1:44:00
or I maybe trade back and take him.
1:44:02
I have been saying that since the beginning.
1:44:04
I'd like to see the Giants trade back, get an extra day two pick.
1:44:06
They only have one day two pick it.
1:44:09
It would make sense for them to do something like that and get
1:44:11
Tate around 10. But look, you know, I think he's
1:44:15
a better version of T Higgins. I think he's a better, better
1:44:18
hands version, physical receiver, but also physical at
1:44:22
the catch point is the point, you know what I mean?
1:44:24
And T Higgins is great, you know, radius and everything with
1:44:27
the catch point. Maybe he doesn't have the same
1:44:28
radius as Higgins, but he can do.
1:44:30
You know, and you know, the Buckeyes, wide receivers, they
1:44:33
all, they come to the NFL and they all succeed.
1:44:35
Most of them succeed. So I like them.
1:44:37
I think he's going to be good. All right, so let's talk about
1:44:40
this last guy that we have here in the top ten and on these Q.
1:44:46
These are the offensive lineman, and I'm an offensive line coach
1:44:48
in high school. You play defensive line in the
1:44:50
NFL at elite level ACC football. If I don't know what I'm talking
1:44:54
about, call me out please. But I'm watching this tape on
1:44:57
Spencer Fano, the Utah right tackle, and I am not super
1:45:01
impressed with what he does in the run game.
1:45:03
It looks like he's a guy that has to play in the zone.
1:45:06
Let me give you some of this stuff with him.
1:45:08
You know, he's an immediate starter at left tackle, is a
1:45:10
true freshman, moved to right tackle the last two years,
1:45:13
became the 5th unanimous All American in school history.
1:45:16
Pretty good athlete and fast out of his stance.
1:45:18
He's pretty good in pass pro and that's good for the NFL.
1:45:22
Has the type of knee bending, athleticism, all those things
1:45:25
you want, but he's a little small and he gets manhandled a
1:45:29
little bit by bigger guys. And in the run game.
1:45:32
I don't I don't like what I see when he pulls.
1:45:35
It's not impressive. I think he needs to be a zone,
1:45:38
like a inside outside zone type of scheme to be successful.
1:45:42
It's a it's a situation fit. In my opinion, Errol Fano is the
1:45:46
guy that people keep talking about as the one that it should
1:45:51
be taken first, even though there's a lot of people who love
1:45:54
what they saw out of Malanoa, who we'll talk about in a
1:45:56
second. So from the playoffs.
1:45:58
So his overall grade is an 83.9, which is 12th among qualified
1:46:02
tackles in this year's draft. Pass blocking grade 81.5, run
1:46:06
blocking grade 79.9, total pressures allowed, 50 sacks,
1:46:12
zero hits. And by the way, he snaps 822 as
1:46:15
an offensive tackle. Every single every single thing
1:46:19
that you see when it comes to numbers, he's second team all
1:46:21
America in 2025. He is an elite player, but like
1:46:24
you said, Fish, he is small. There's a lot of questions to
1:46:28
his length and can he do it consistently in the NFL with
1:46:32
speed demons on the on the corners?
1:46:33
That's the question. A lot of people are wondering if
1:46:36
he's mean enough to play at that position at a high level.
1:46:39
So that's my that's my point there.
1:46:41
It's very weird with the type of player that he is.
1:46:43
He's a pass first tackle in a run, very run heavy system that
1:46:47
Kyle Whittingham had at Utah. A lot of good running backs
1:46:50
outside of the year with Tyler Huntley, not a lot of great
1:46:52
quarterbacks and fish. That's maybe where you're
1:46:54
describing a lot of those maybe exotic run concepts he wasn't as
1:46:57
good with outside of that one year with Huntley.
1:46:59
And that's that's the thing. I don't think they should take
1:47:01
him top ten because I think 8 is too high.
1:47:03
I still like him. I think he'd still be good as a
1:47:05
technique blocker. You you saw that with a lot of
1:47:07
these tackles that aren't as big.
1:47:08
My goal, my goal is a little bigger, so he's going to be the
1:47:11
opposite. He has to get the technique
1:47:12
down. I think Fano has that already.
1:47:14
He's a good mid first round pick for a team.
1:47:15
I would not take him #8 I would not take him in the top 10.
1:47:20
Yeah, I'm a double down on everything you guys said.
1:47:22
I don't think he's the top 10 picker at all.
1:47:24
I think she was correct on your analysis of in regards to him.
1:47:28
He's kind of high fit, like you said, he's undersized.
1:47:31
I don't think he's going to do well with NFL prototype, the top
1:47:35
of the DN and as rushes, he's kind of stiff at the hip.
1:47:38
So he's kind of one of those guys that kind of like you said,
1:47:40
in the inside zone, it gets in the way and not necessarily have
1:47:44
to physically head on block view.
1:47:46
So from a scheme sense, it depends on the team.
1:47:49
It may make sense, but definitely don't see top ten
1:47:51
offensive lineman talent. Yeah, Qi can't agree more with
1:47:56
that. And just to wrap up on final, I
1:47:59
don't know if you can take a guy like that who has to be a scheme
1:48:02
fit in his own scheme in the top ten.
1:48:04
I look if he starts slipping, but if he starts slipping, you
1:48:08
know who wants this guy? Errol, it's Kyle Shanahan.
1:48:11
This is what Shanahan does. He wants right tackles who run
1:48:15
zone and he wants them to be good pass pro.
1:48:18
He's really good at pass pro. He's gonna have a long career
1:48:21
because of that. But in the run game, unless he's
1:48:24
blocking left or right in combo and somebody, I don't think you
1:48:27
really want him as an elite guy. And I, I don't think you can
1:48:30
take him in the top 10 or really, you know, I, I think 15
1:48:33
you start talking about here's. Here's the weird thing about
1:48:36
that though. A lot of teams is going to the
1:48:38
3442 and the Edge guys are only like 252 sixty.
1:48:43
So that kind of weighs in his favor a little bit because
1:48:48
you're not getting the 662627280 DNS no more.
1:48:53
Everybody's going 626364230 to 2:50 type edge rushers, you
1:48:59
know, edge rushers special. Because of beasts.
1:49:02
They answers. I mean, look, it's the game's
1:49:04
changing, you know? Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
1:49:06
So it kind of kind of works in his favor in a little bit, even
1:49:10
though we're more used to the traditional football formats in
1:49:13
regards to what they, the office alignment look like versus their
1:49:17
true DM all. Right, so let's get to this next
1:49:20
grouping of players. We're going to stay with the
1:49:21
online look, since we're talking about it.
1:49:23
We might as well compare him to Malanoa because he's sitting
1:49:26
here at 11. Then we have Ione from Penn
1:49:29
State. I'm not even going to try to
1:49:31
pronounce his first name. Speedy.
1:49:32
If you know how to do it, go for it.
1:49:34
He's the Penn State guard. He's expected to be the first
1:49:37
guard taken. We'll get to him in a second.
1:49:40
Monroe Freeling, the Georgia left tackle.
1:49:42
He's the first left tackle they expect to take.
1:49:45
Hayden Proctor, the Alabama left tackle.
1:49:48
Then Caleb Lomu, the other Utah tackle opposite of Fano is
1:49:54
sitting there at 25. He would be a left tackle as
1:49:58
well. So let's start with those guys
1:50:00
and start specifically with the guy who may go ahead of Fano,
1:50:05
which is Francis Mahanoa of Miami.
1:50:06
Now Mahanoa, you know, three-year starter at Miami, he
1:50:10
was a five star recruit, started from day one, started all 42
1:50:14
games in the last three seasons, consensus all American this
1:50:17
year, obviously they got to the championship game.
1:50:20
He is a monster. He is huge.
1:50:24
He is mean he he may have some issues though with some of the
1:50:28
technical stuff and he may not be the most fluid athlete.
1:50:31
I don't think it's going to be a problem for this kid.
1:50:34
I think his size, playing over there in Miami, playing against
1:50:36
Bain week in and week out on the practice field.
1:50:39
One of the better defenses in the country.
1:50:41
Got to see those behemoths all week, every week.
1:50:45
Power run, blocking. This guy's physically run
1:50:48
blocker, strong leg drives, everything.
1:50:51
This guy durable pass protection.
1:50:54
He's known for his clean set. So this guy has everything.
1:50:57
I think this guy is as good as anybody in this year's draft.
1:51:00
You could put him at guard, you can put him at tackle, you can
1:51:02
move them all over that. Elijah Vera Tucker was the kind
1:51:05
of player like him. Elijah Vera Tucker couldn't stay
1:51:07
healthy for The Jets. If this kid could play healthy,
1:51:10
you can put him at any one of those positions except center
1:51:12
and this guy will dominate. I love this kid.
1:51:15
Yeah, the technique will, I think will come, but he's
1:51:16
definitely got the size. He's got a decent. 6 by the way,
1:51:19
and 315 lbs. Yeah, I think he still has
1:51:21
decent enough lateral movement too.
1:51:23
Now, again, the footwork, the raw hands, hand fighting, that's
1:51:27
going to be another question. And he's got the strength.
1:51:29
It's just going to be a matter of the technique.
1:51:30
Q You mentioned it with Tennessee taking him at 4.
1:51:33
We've seen the Titans do very well developing offensive line
1:51:35
up until probably the last three years, obviously with Lawan and
1:51:38
and Conklin in recent years. Michael Ruse or I think you
1:51:40
played against Q, what at the time played very well over
1:51:44
there. So they know what they're doing
1:51:45
with offensive line. That's the pick I would make for
1:51:46
them because they're not going to go anywhere either get the
1:51:48
raw technique developed at that point.
1:51:50
But I think athletically he's as good as anyone in this draft and
1:51:53
I think he should go definitely top ten, maybe top five.
1:51:55
Yeah, he's my pick over final. Yeah, he's definitely my pick
1:51:59
over final. I I think this kid is aggressive
1:52:02
and like you said, he does have some technical issues in regards
1:52:05
to technique wise, but overall, you know, as far as physicality,
1:52:08
what you look for a big physical can play to run can't pass for
1:52:12
Ted. He has long arms, so that's
1:52:14
going to be a problem for the airbrushes, especially this new
1:52:16
day and age edge with the 242 sixty guys that's 6364.
1:52:21
He can lean on them, grab them, hold on to them and actually
1:52:24
create holes for the running back and also pass for Ted.
1:52:28
I think it goes forward with or is it 4-6?
1:52:30
It's. Four with the Titans?
1:52:32
Yeah, 4. With the Browns, he's the first
1:52:34
one at the ground. The Browns would be fish.
1:52:36
That was the one I was text you about.
1:52:37
The Browns would be the one would be concerned with because
1:52:39
then he gets to get coached by Bobby Johnson.
1:52:42
Bobby Johnson. No, we know enough about Bobby
1:52:46
Johnson in these parts of the town.
1:52:48
Absolutely not. Look, Malino, what I wrote down
1:52:53
just because I watched everyone, I think he's probably, you know,
1:52:56
if it as a tackle, you kind of want him doing some of his own
1:52:59
stuff. But if you put him in a guard,
1:53:03
he might be the best guard in the NFL.
1:53:05
And that's that's the thing. Because like, he's not a great
1:53:08
lateral mover. But if you have him do short
1:53:11
pulls and just wax guys on like pin poles and stuff like that, I
1:53:15
mean, you're going to open up holes, bro.
1:53:17
Like, there's no doubt. Reminds.
1:53:18
Me. He's the run guy.
1:53:19
Reminds me of Elijah Vertucker when The Jets drafted him he
1:53:22
could play multiple positions that could put him at tackle.
1:53:25
When he was over there at USC you could put him at guard.
1:53:27
When he was at guard he was one of the best guards.
1:53:29
Before he got hurt in all of football, PFF was saying that he
1:53:32
was the best. So when you look at if he could
1:53:35
stay healthy, this kids got the size of the ability to be the
1:53:39
elite guard that a lot of people think he's going to be in the
1:53:42
NFL. Curious to see what whoever
1:53:44
drafts and what they decide to do with him because if he
1:53:46
doesn't go in the top ten I'd be willing to bet teams will try
1:53:49
him out of guard. If he's a top ten guy.
1:53:50
They're not putting a guard. Unless it was the last guy.
1:53:52
Quinton Nelson. I don't think he's Quinton
1:53:54
Nelson. This next guy, Olivia Vega, Ione
1:53:58
from Penn State. Remember last year we were
1:54:00
talking about Membu being the nastiest guy in the draft
1:54:03
because every single piece of film he just finished and just
1:54:06
was nasty to the guy and put him on the ground.
1:54:08
Well, that's who this guy is this year, playing the guard
1:54:11
position of Penn State. So 2 1/2 year starter Penn
1:54:13
State. He lined up in left guard.
1:54:15
He was past three seasons, 0 sacks allowed, zero holding
1:54:20
penalties in the past two seasons.
1:54:23
He is excellent in pass protection.
1:54:24
He's quick out of it, but he is super patient out of his stance.
1:54:28
He's waiting to do a counter move on whatever the D lineman
1:54:30
is doing to him because he's wide enough to stop it and
1:54:32
strong enough to stop it anyway. And then in the run game, he is
1:54:36
a Mueller, especially on down blocks.
1:54:40
Oh my God. Q, You don't want to go against
1:54:42
this guy if you're trying to slam inside.
1:54:45
No way, Not a chance in hell. This is the guy that's going to
1:54:49
be the best lineman in this draft in my opinion.
1:54:51
He's strong, he's powerful, he can throw people around, He's
1:54:55
huge and he's scary. I'm sure he speaks a lot.
1:54:59
I remember the game against the docks where he was throwing
1:55:01
Washington around defensive lineman.
1:55:03
So he is a trim. He has tremendous torque, upper
1:55:06
body strength. I expect this guy to be an elite
1:55:08
player in the league no matter where they put him on the line.
1:55:11
He's going to be fun to watch and he's going to be mean to
1:55:13
watch wherever he goes. Yeah, This is a guy that's a
1:55:15
road grader. He's been very good as an inside
1:55:18
blocker for many of those Penn State running backs that have
1:55:20
been there. They've had them drafted a lot.
1:55:22
I think both of them are going even into this draft, too.
1:55:24
And he's a big reason why at that.
1:55:25
Very good and good pass Balker too, just they didn't have great
1:55:28
quarterbacks over there, Penn State or they quarterbacks that
1:55:30
got hurt already, so it didn't look as good.
1:55:32
This is as good of a sure thing of an offensive lineman at the
1:55:35
guard position. Yeah, overall talent, he's
1:55:39
probably the best one, but man, like, you know, one, I'm retired
1:55:43
so I would, I won't go against him, but he's mean.
1:55:48
Like you turn on the tape, he's mean and he actually tries to
1:55:52
kill out there. And that's something that you
1:55:54
look forward to as a online coach.
1:55:56
I'm sure you fish. You can respect that.
1:55:59
And he tries to finish it. He finishes the block, which is
1:56:02
a key fact that let me know that you know, he's one of those guys
1:56:05
that's going to be around for a while.
1:56:07
More like the angry guys like the Trent Williams and things
1:56:10
that others like where they just go out there, they in a
1:56:12
different mindset. They're trying to destroy you
1:56:15
and it's fun to play against them when you're AD lineman.
1:56:18
But if you don't know what you're doing, it could be a
1:56:21
deadly day for you. So this is a thing that like is
1:56:25
a football coach thing, a football player thing.
1:56:27
When you watch a guy play and you make faces like this when he
1:56:30
hit someone, that's the guy you want on your.
1:56:34
Yeah, And that's who he is, man. Like, this is that guy.
1:56:38
He's the one that's murdering everyone on the field, the Larry
1:56:40
Allen type, you know that you want this guy should be the.
1:56:44
I would take him ahead of both Bono and Malanoa.
1:56:48
I think he's that good. He's the best guard coming out
1:56:50
since Quinn and Nelson. And I don't think it's close.
1:56:53
He he, I don't think. I mean, I'm not going to say
1:56:55
anyone's Hall of Fame right off the bat like Hilton Nelson's
1:56:57
going to be, but he's got a good chance.
1:57:00
The next guy I have here, yeah, go ahead.
1:57:02
Q. Yeah, yeah.
1:57:03
I just think that with what's it called from Miami that made it
1:57:07
deep into the playoffs, that's going to be an impact, you know,
1:57:09
based off his success in the league.
1:57:11
I think that's why guys haven't really picked up as much thing
1:57:15
as defense that he didn't really do too much this year.
1:57:17
Yeah, that that huge fall. You know, we talked about
1:57:20
Franklin getting fired. You know, that definitely hurts
1:57:22
that guy getting the exposure and mountain all about all the
1:57:24
exposure, right? Let's talk about Monroe
1:57:27
Freeling, the Georgia left tackle.
1:57:30
He's a starter for 1 1/2 years of Georgia.
1:57:33
He's ranked #17 here. Pretty balanced gap in zone
1:57:37
scheme running them both. He committed only one holding
1:57:40
penalty in his eighteen starts. He was all SEC this year.
1:57:43
Only 9 pressures all season long and lanky but big enough frame.
1:57:49
He has enough weight. He's quick out of his stance.
1:57:51
Like really quick out of his stance.
1:57:53
And I have some notes on him that he is my favorite tackle in
1:57:58
this draft. I like him better than all the
1:58:01
other tackles. He has great size and balance
1:58:04
with his lower half, specifically his upper half,
1:58:07
he's got good placement, but if he gets a little thicker upper
1:58:10
body strength, the feet, it always his feet first.
1:58:14
And this guy, I remember last year we were talking about
1:58:16
Joshua Simmons had the best feet in the draft.
1:58:18
He was the last pick of the first round for the Chiefs or
1:58:21
second last pick, whatever it was, and but he had injuries.
1:58:24
This guy's got feet that are better than Josh Simmons and
1:58:29
he's got a frame to grow into still.
1:58:31
He's still figuring out how good he's going to be the Georgia
1:58:34
left tackle. Georgia Bulldog SEC Plays at a
1:58:37
high level, plays against high level teams year in year out,
1:58:41
full time starter, left tackle. You look for in a tackle to fill
1:58:44
in a position. There are teams looking for that
1:58:47
tackle. He's a very good one.
1:58:49
He's big, he's strong, he bends very well.
1:58:52
Everything I see about and and when I read about him, he's
1:58:56
very, very strong upper body and he's going to be able to bend in
1:58:59
any kind of way against any of these top defensive lineman.
1:59:02
So I I like him too. I don't know if he's the best
1:59:05
tackle in this draft like you say he is, but he did play in
1:59:08
the SEC, did play against top end talent.
1:59:11
So when you look at all the other tackles and where they
1:59:14
were playing, I would bet, I would bet on a Georgia guy.
1:59:18
As we see there's there's a Georgia guy playing for your New
1:59:20
York Giants. So he's been successful.
1:59:22
So why couldn't Monroe Freeland? So.
1:59:25
Yeah, definitely good technique guy good.
1:59:26
Like you said, Fish maybe has to get a little stronger up top,
1:59:28
but I think his footwork is very strong.
1:59:30
I think for a team that was more of a run heavy team, still could
1:59:33
pass block very well. I think a 17th ranking is a very
1:59:36
appropriate one for him. I would even I would even
1:59:39
consider like if a team won an offensive lineman that's
1:59:41
drafting before, that would still be a good pick for them.
1:59:44
I think you got a lot of upside still and I think he could
1:59:46
finish ahead of Fano where he is.
1:59:48
I don't know if he's better than Malgo if Malgo plays tackle, but
1:59:51
I think he definitely has the upside to get there.
1:59:53
I think it'll take a little while, but I think he's got all
1:59:54
the traits you need. Yeah, he's a, he's a, he's a
1:59:58
technician man. I think one of the things that
1:59:59
stood out to me as his hand placements and when you look at
2:00:02
him and he's. Doing DNS, body slamming them
2:00:06
and then he's able to pass off a DN and and get the Taco that's
2:00:10
wrapping around IQ level as at a different type of level.
2:00:14
Very few offensive lineman can pass off cleanly a DN and and
2:00:19
pick up a D Taco on the on the twist plate.
2:00:22
So I, I like him, man. I, I think, you know, Fish,
2:00:25
you're pretty good at this. You're doing pretty good
2:00:27
tonight. You got that in 1000 tonight.
2:00:29
But he's one of those, he's one of those guys.
2:00:31
And I could, yeah, I would say he's probably the best offensive
2:00:34
tackle on the distance. I just like guys have good feet.
2:00:39
I just, that's just me. If I know your feet are good and
2:00:43
you can get a little bit more on that frame, how good are you
2:00:45
going to be like I project growth from that guy.
2:00:47
But then you again, I go back to the same thing.
2:00:49
He's going to be going against guys at 636424260, so you know,
2:00:55
to gain more weight may not pay for him in regards to being able
2:00:58
to pass protect. All right, let's get to this
2:01:00
next guy. So you said Errol and this it's
2:01:02
funny that you mentioned the Giants had Georgia guy.
2:01:05
Well, the Giants also had an Alabama guy.
2:01:07
His name was Evan Neil and he still.
2:01:10
Wasn't at work. There's an Alabama tackle here
2:01:13
at #19 and his name is Kaden Proctor. three-year starter.
2:01:17
He was the Jacobs Blocking Trophy award winner for the top
2:01:20
blocker in the SEC this year, All America honors, you know,
2:01:23
LED all Alabama players in snaps played with almost 1000 this
2:01:27
year. You know, obviously very pass
2:01:29
heavy offense in Alabama with grubs over it, with grub over
2:01:33
there, very big. I'm sure you're not surprised
2:01:36
because it's Alabama that he's a massive individual and you know,
2:01:41
his size takes care of a lot of defenders at this level.
2:01:45
But what do you think the problem is with the Alabama
2:01:48
tackle? It's he's a little too big and
2:01:50
doesn't have the best leverage and the best balance.
2:01:53
And he gets over over in front of his skis, as they say, like a
2:01:56
guy that I remember named Evan Neal.
2:01:59
I like Kaden Proctor. I, I know he has excellent feet
2:02:03
and agility. He's a big man.
2:02:04
He's one of the bigger guys in this year's draft.
2:02:07
I, I, he plays for Alabama again in SEC school.
2:02:10
He plays against the elite teams, elite players.
2:02:13
Georgia's offensive line. I mean, I'm sorry, Alabama's
2:02:16
offensive line was not good. That's why a lot of people say
2:02:18
Ty Simpson should be higher in the draft than a lot of people
2:02:22
think. But because of the talent that
2:02:24
he had in front of him, he had no running game because his
2:02:26
running backs got hurt. His wide receivers weren't 100%
2:02:29
healthy. Kaden Proctor was fairly healthy
2:02:32
all year. It wasn't his side that was
2:02:34
getting crushed. It was the other side.
2:02:36
I like Kaden Proctor. I don't know if he's a top ten
2:02:39
talent offensively. I mean, Lemon should be there.
2:02:43
Makai Lemon. I mean, he's going to fall out
2:02:45
because of what he did at the combine, but I think he's a much
2:02:48
better talent than half these offensive lineman.
2:02:50
So he's going to fall. But this guy, the, the fact that
2:02:54
you're putting all these offensive lines and offensive
2:02:56
lineman in front of him, I beg to differ.
2:02:58
I, I, I would say about two or three of these guys are not even
2:03:00
going to be in the top ten offensive guys in this draft.
2:03:03
Just my opinion. He's an odd one because I think
2:03:05
his his traits as a bigger guy, being a pass blocking guy could
2:03:08
be something that's encouraging, but I don't know if he had the
2:03:10
great initial first step. His footwork is decent, but I, I
2:03:13
don't I think that some of those other speed rushers that you saw
2:03:15
even in some of those other SEC games, I think gave him some
2:03:18
trouble. Now what's interesting is he
2:03:20
played both left and right tackle at certain points during
2:03:22
his Alabama. I know that's what I think could
2:03:25
be a good thing, but I think at at 19 might be a little too
2:03:28
high. I would consider it as a late
2:03:30
1st Trump pick Q That might be one of the perfect system fit
2:03:34
type guys and he gets that perfect combination because he
2:03:36
does have the size to make it work.
2:03:38
Yeah, maybe Kansas City at the back end of the first round of
2:03:40
29 could definitely be an option.
2:03:42
I think that's where I think it's more likely for him to go.
2:03:44
I think if he goes in the middle of the first round and just
2:03:46
trying to throw him to the fire. He goes with, if he goes to Andy
2:03:49
Reid, this kid. Is going to be.
2:03:50
This guy's going to be a beast. Yeah, it's over it.
2:03:53
I can imagine the the the offensive plays that Andy's
2:03:57
going to draw for him, not only just blocker wise, but if you go
2:03:59
back and look at some of his tape, you know, he was stretched
2:04:02
out and wide as a wide receiver. You know, he did a lot of
2:04:04
Wildcat formations with Alabama as well that he plays so very
2:04:09
athletic. I think he's top heavy.
2:04:11
So obviously that's something that he's going to have to work
2:04:13
on in the league, especially with everybody going to speed
2:04:17
ends and edge rushers. So I think he had he would have
2:04:19
to work on that in the league. But as far as like big play,
2:04:22
making, big left tackle, being able to move, versatile and
2:04:28
whatnot, I think he could. Obviously he got some technique
2:04:31
issues that he need to work on, but for the most part, the kid
2:04:34
is athletic. I still don't take them high.
2:04:38
But like you said, if he fall down there, I think Andy, Andy
2:04:41
Reid jumps on him immediately and he has a successful career
2:04:44
for sure. Yeah, I feel the same way.
2:04:47
Look, it's it's an Alabama guy. They're a little raw with their
2:04:51
technique. If they get put with a good
2:04:53
coach, they'll figure it out if they get put with Bobby Johnson
2:04:56
to become Evan Neal. So that's the difference.
2:05:00
Let's move on from this guy. I wouldn't take him to the end
2:05:03
of the first round. I think at least Proctor, I
2:05:05
think he's a project. Let's talk about the other Utah
2:05:08
tackle and then we'll get into the receivers.
2:05:10
So we have Caleb Lomu. So again, everyone talks about
2:05:15
Fano, but Lomu played left tackle over there.
2:05:18
Obviously Utah would, you know, pretty impressive offensive
2:05:22
line. He's an above average athlete,
2:05:24
you know, pretty good in pass protection, consistent with the
2:05:28
snap mirrors guys. He's explosive out of his
2:05:32
stance, except he can't stay on blocks at all.
2:05:37
And I think he's going to be terrible.
2:05:39
I don't think he's going to be good at all in the NFL.
2:05:42
He reads stunts well. He can pick up stunts.
2:05:45
That's better than Evan Neal ever did.
2:05:46
So he might be better than Evan Neal, but I'll I'll tell you
2:05:50
right now, you watch a guy who's going to slip off blocks even
2:05:53
when he's in zone, he doesn't really get into guys.
2:05:56
He has to be in his own scheme. Whereas Fano would be better in
2:06:00
his own scheme. This guy has to be in his own
2:06:03
scheme. I can't feel him being
2:06:04
successful at all where he has to be tough against somebody.
2:06:07
But again, if you have that like kind of quick offense, you're
2:06:09
going to be real pass heavy. You take this guy, but if you
2:06:12
take him in the first round, I think that's a misuse of assets.
2:06:16
Size problem needs to put on some weight, but I'm reading
2:06:19
right here he needs to put on a significant amount of weight if
2:06:23
he wants to be an elite player at this level.
2:06:25
And also he's got some power. He played for Utah, he played at
2:06:30
a high level. But his again, when you look at
2:06:33
the strength and position and look at all some of these guys
2:06:36
that are are fighting and moving up in this year's draft, he's
2:06:40
one of those guys. When you look at his size,
2:06:41
they're moving down. I do not believe he's a top 10
2:06:45
offensive guy in this year's draft.
2:06:47
Offensive tackle. Guard, maybe.
2:06:50
If he moves the guard, he might have a longer career in the NFL
2:06:53
as a tackle. Not a chance.
2:06:55
He's he's got to put on a lot of weight.
2:06:56
He's got to put on at least 3040 lbs.
2:06:58
Yeah, this is definitely a second round grade.
2:07:00
I don't I don't even think any system could make it justify to
2:07:03
work work a first round pick. He's got too much issues with
2:07:06
good edge rushers. I think they were saying that
2:07:08
like Texas Tech was the best defense he faced and had his
2:07:11
worst game in his career and he just shows.
2:07:13
You were saying about last year with the Gremble that the Big 12
2:07:16
competition overall for defenses are not very good.
2:07:19
It's the same kind of thing here.
2:07:20
I just don't think he really faced the competition.
2:07:22
I think second round is where I would take him, make him be the
2:07:25
third or fourth guy. I.
2:07:26
Think he's a guard, That's what I think.
2:07:27
I do not believe his his attack. I don't know if it's necessarily
2:07:31
position specific, I think he has a bulk up either way and I
2:07:34
just think his body prototype is just.
2:07:36
Very weird. He's fast with his feet.
2:07:38
He doesn't have to put as much weight on if he moves to guard
2:07:42
and he could still use his speed and his agility that he has
2:07:45
played at a high level in Utah. I think you move him to guard
2:07:49
and he'll be a good guard in the league.
2:07:51
Yeah, I've doubled down on that. Good job.
2:07:54
I doubled down on that. I think he will be better off if
2:07:56
he goes to guard. Definitely don't know why fish
2:07:59
put him anywhere near top ten an old lineman at all.
2:08:03
He's struggling a little bit with Big 12 defense alignment.
2:08:08
So to even consider him being anywhere near the first round or
2:08:12
even top of the second round would just be insane.
2:08:15
So yeah, I think he's a late second round, third round guy.
2:08:17
Definitely they two of a further guy, but he's he's he's
2:08:21
definitely would be better at a guard.
2:08:23
He got long arms, so that'll be a great benefit to him.
2:08:26
And then he's protected on both sides.
2:08:28
So he really don't like arrows. Say you don't have to put too
2:08:30
much weight on and he's just have to learn how to anchor
2:08:32
down. Well, look, I just don't like
2:08:36
guys that play high in the run game and he plays high in the
2:08:39
run game because he's feet. They might be fast, but they get
2:08:42
narrow and he gets a little too high, gets a little too like
2:08:46
aren't like upper body happy, not like, you know, using this
2:08:49
leverage. I I wouldn't take him like at
2:08:51
all on his draft. I I don't, I don't see it like I
2:08:55
just don't see this guy being effective.
2:08:57
You know, he's a project. You got to put weight on him.
2:09:00
I would be late second round on him personally, but he was
2:09:03
ranked #25 I didn't make up this list.
2:09:05
Queue, This isn't me. This isn't.
2:09:07
Me the guy you subscribe to. This is the guy you subscribe
2:09:10
to. You need to.
2:09:11
You need to e-mail him. You need to send.
2:09:12
You need to make a comment. Why don't you, why don't you
2:09:14
send him this part of the show and, and let him decide who
2:09:18
who's right and who's wrong? Maybe I will.
2:09:20
All right, let's let's go to receiver.
2:09:22
So in this next group, I have the last guys in the top 25.
2:09:26
We got receiver in tight end Makai Lemon at 13, the USC
2:09:30
receiver, Kenyon Siddique, the tight end from Oregon at 16,
2:09:34
Jordan Tyson, the Arizona Statewide receiver at 20, KC
2:09:39
Conception, the Texas A&M slot guy from at 21, the national
2:09:44
champion Omar Cooper, junior from Indiana at 22.
2:09:47
And that is, well, you know, let's add this guy into Denzel
2:09:51
Boston at 26 from Washington. So we got this group of guys do
2:09:57
you want? Me to go?
2:09:58
Do you want me to throw you a curveball here?
2:10:02
Go for it. I think Makai Lemon is the best
2:10:04
wide receiver in this class. I think he's the best wide
2:10:08
receiver in his class. Reminds me of Saint Brown.
2:10:11
He's got a big mouth he has. He is one of those guys that
2:10:15
needs to shut his mouth and listen.
2:10:17
But what this guy does on the field, nobody does that in this
2:10:21
year's draft. This guy can go out there, get
2:10:22
the ball, catch the ball. He's got sticky hands.
2:10:26
He could do everything, run routes, speed on the outside.
2:10:29
This guy is a absolute stud. I'm telling you right now, he'll
2:10:33
fault in the second round and whoever drafts him in the second
2:10:36
round is getting an absolute slam dunk wide receiver.
2:10:40
He is the best wide receiver in his class.
2:10:42
You can book. I said that what guy said that
2:10:45
it's one of those cases. It's.
2:10:47
One of those cases where I think you.
2:10:49
Could see him. Being the best slot receiver
2:10:51
because he played mostly slot, I think it was what was it, 89,
2:10:53
eight .9% of the snaps he had in the slot.
2:10:56
So he he could be one of those receivers like Michael Thomas
2:10:58
was with the Saints, where he might be the best statistical
2:11:00
receiver in a season that plays mostly in the slot.
2:11:03
He can go deep. He's got like like you're
2:11:04
saying, great feet too. I got just a matter of the
2:11:07
character issue. So it's going to probably be a
2:11:08
late first round pick, a playoff team that could.
2:11:11
Let him fall to The Jets in the second round.
2:11:13
I love it. You're going to trust Aaron
2:11:14
Glenn to do the right thing. Pick you pick first, overall the
2:11:18
second. I would take him first overall,
2:11:20
second round 100%. 100% I think it'll.
2:11:22
Take out of the I. Think it'll take one of those
2:11:24
playoff teams to try to make that kind of thing work, but he
2:11:26
could easily emerge into the number one receiver on that team
2:11:28
even if he has a slot guy, because he doesn't have a
2:11:30
significant weakness. Yeah, I mean good talent second,
2:11:35
definitely a second round guy. I mean definitely not the the
2:11:40
receiver that Earl is saying he is.
2:11:42
I remember. He said that.
2:11:43
He has good. I think he's a good slot.
2:11:45
I think he finds the gaps in the defenses and makes good catches,
2:11:49
but I can't see him being. That's what they said about
2:11:53
Najiba. That's why he fell.
2:11:56
He undersized all that other stuff.
2:12:00
Beast if he if he find say if he went to the beast, I think he
2:12:04
would be crazy. I think Beast, he's going to be
2:12:07
wearing the. Belt baby wearing the belt baby.
2:12:10
You're going to beast. Depend on the system though.
2:12:12
Beast. All right, Well, I, the only
2:12:16
thing about him that I am a little worried about is he seems
2:12:18
to be a diva wide receiver. He's about.
2:12:20
Yeah. And you're going to is, is a guy
2:12:23
that you're going to love or you're absolutely going to hate
2:12:25
Errol. I think you're going to have
2:12:26
plenty of hot takes about Makai Lemon in the next few years for
2:12:29
sure. Definitely going to be the
2:12:31
second receiver off the board. I can't see it any other way.
2:12:34
If it is another guy though, it'll be Jordan Tyson.
2:12:37
So let's talk about him real quick.
2:12:39
Jordan Tyson, Arizona statewide receiver.
2:12:43
Let me just change the camera angle and we'll get to the
2:12:45
notes. So we got here. 2 year starter
2:12:49
Arizona State lined up as the X receiver 3/4 of the time.
2:12:52
Combined 136 catches, 1800 yards, 18 touchdowns in 21
2:12:57
games. It was basically him, Jeremiah
2:13:01
Smith and UConn Skylar Bell, the only three FBS players who could
2:13:04
who did that. Not elite speed, but good enough
2:13:08
speed. Not a great size.
2:13:11
Good enough size but makes the wow catches all the time.
2:13:16
His issue is health. That's why he will drop.
2:13:21
I don't think it's a first round talent.
2:13:22
I think he falls to the second round.
2:13:23
He's a good player. He's got elite speed.
2:13:26
He could do all those things that you we've been saying Makai
2:13:29
can do and, and, and what everybody, every wide receiver
2:13:33
could do in this his class. I don't even think he's the
2:13:35
third best wide receiver in his class.
2:13:38
That's the crazy thing. I'm I'm going to say this, a
2:13:40
tight end Sadiq is the if you want to consider him a tight end
2:13:45
slash wide receiver, he's the third best wide receiver in this
2:13:47
class. I do not believe he is, but he's
2:13:50
got potential. He's a second round talent,
2:13:52
maybe a third round talent. We'll see how he falls, but
2:13:55
again, health is everything. Health is the most important
2:13:58
thing when it comes to the NFL, and I think that's going to be
2:14:00
his problem. Yeah, it's interesting because I
2:14:02
think he's got a good balance of everything that you need.
2:14:04
Yeah, Fish, like you're saying, not overly fast, but I think you
2:14:07
look at Kenny Dillingham and that Arizona State scheme I
2:14:09
think did a good job of getting guys open.
2:14:11
I think whoever's going to be drafting him, he'll probably be
2:14:13
in the later first round anyway because.
2:14:14
He's not be drafting in the 1st. Because of the injury risk, I
2:14:17
think there will be a team that will take a flyer on him because
2:14:19
in the. First round.
2:14:20
At the end of the first round, a playoff.
2:14:22
Nobody's taking him in the first round.
2:14:24
A playoff. Team #20 on this list.
2:14:27
He's not talent wise. Book it.
2:14:29
Book it. He will not be drafted in the
2:14:30
first round. Book it.
2:14:31
Which talent wise 20 makes a lot of sense, but I think the stat
2:14:34
was he missed 34% of Arizona State's games, which is
2:14:37
definitely a concern. Again, I think A-Team that's
2:14:40
higher end of the back end of the first round is take a
2:14:42
flight. I wouldn't if I was a Houston
2:14:43
Texans, all the fragile receivers, I wouldn't take them.
2:14:45
But any of those other teams that could use a receiver, I
2:14:48
think definitely still take a shot at him.
2:14:50
Yeah. I mean, obviously health there's
2:14:52
an issue and it would be considered, but I mean, if you
2:14:54
look at the kids number, look at that was almost 1000 yards with
2:14:58
being hurt 8 total touchdowns. I mean the kid can play.
2:15:02
I think I would probably compare him somewhere to like a Mike
2:15:05
Evans, You know, somebody that doesn't really have too much
2:15:08
breakaway speed, but definitely can catch the ball definitely
2:15:10
around the routes, possession type possession type wide
2:15:14
receiver. So I, I think he might slip in
2:15:16
there. I'm I'm going to go against him
2:15:18
and I'm saying he's going to go higher than what's it called?
2:15:21
What's the name Mike? The last one we just Lemon, yes.
2:15:25
So yeah, girl, I got, I got this guy going, Tyson going further
2:15:29
than Lemon. This guy, this guy, by the way,
2:15:31
is an Arizona player. We'll see how fast these guys go
2:15:35
off the board and how how big they how quick they fail in the
2:15:39
NFL, these wide receivers so. Just saying, I think it's going
2:15:44
to be if there's a team really need an outside receiver, if
2:15:47
they're going to consider Lemon or or type you.
2:15:51
Know Lemon is absolutely going to be a better wide receiver in
2:15:55
this class. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm
2:15:57
just saying the team may not want a slot receiver, you know?
2:16:00
I bet and Tyson drafted before. It doesn't matter who gets
2:16:03
drafted before each other, it matters who's better.
2:16:06
And I'm going to tell you. Makai lemon's better.
2:16:08
Makai Lemon is a better player. All right, let's talk about a
2:16:12
guy who's maybe the most exciting receiver of this group.
2:16:16
KC Concepcion from Texas A&M, one year starter.
2:16:20
He lined up outside about 60, about 2/3 of the snaps inside.
2:16:26
You know, a lot of RP OS in the Texas A&M scheme, but you know
2:16:30
he is dynamic with the football in his hands.
2:16:35
Like this is the guy you get the screens to.
2:16:37
This is the guy you get into space underneath routes, you
2:16:39
clear out, you know, do clear out routes and have him run a
2:16:42
shallow. This is the guy you want for
2:16:44
that. This is a guy every team needs.
2:16:46
I think that this is the guy that Andy Reid is targeting in
2:16:51
like this. There's no doubt this is an Andy
2:16:53
Reid guy. Think like if he was a little
2:16:56
faster. This is like a Tyreek Hill mold
2:16:59
of a player. I stay away from these fast
2:17:01
guys. They drafted one in the first
2:17:03
round. I'm not saying he failed, but
2:17:05
you can't keep bringing these these fast guys from Texas,
2:17:09
Texas A&M and expect them to succeed.
2:17:12
You bring Tyree Kill on a whim, See if he could still play in
2:17:16
that offense. That's what I would do.
2:17:18
I'm not saying Kiss Epsion won't be a good player and he won't be
2:17:21
explosive. He's not a first round talent.
2:17:23
He could be a second round, early third round draft pick.
2:17:27
Yeah, he's explosive. He's fun to watch.
2:17:29
He's very good, a very good feat.
2:17:32
I just think that these guys that everybody looks at old
2:17:34
speed, this speed that all these speed demons, they don't succeed
2:17:38
in the NFL. Doesn't matter how fast, how
2:17:40
could they break? How could they run routes?
2:17:42
That's the question. I don't know if this guy's going
2:17:45
to be that type of player. And how about being pushed by a
2:17:48
big, strong corner? Can he handle that?
2:17:52
Can that speed handle that? That's my question.
2:17:54
I think he's a different type of player than Xavier Worthy.
2:17:56
I think Xavier Worthy was a flat, a flashy, fast guy that
2:18:00
had a iffy route tree. This is a guy that while he
2:18:02
doesn't have a big great size, he actually plays big and has a
2:18:05
good possession at a possession receiver type.
2:18:07
And he's also very versatile and they can line him up as a
2:18:09
running back, they can line him up as a like a slot out type
2:18:12
guy. So I think there's a lot of
2:18:14
creativity that can go evolve with a player like him and he's
2:18:16
a guy that gets open very quickly.
2:18:18
And in today's NFL, with a lot of these 3 receiver sets, a lot
2:18:20
of these bunch sets, that's a big the.
2:18:22
Corners are a lot faster, the safeties are a lot faster.
2:18:26
They're not going to get as open as quick as they were playing
2:18:30
college football. Now the other thing.
2:18:31
That's interesting. The other thing that's
2:18:33
interesting is his NC State career.
2:18:34
He played both a lot of slot and outside, and they did not have
2:18:37
great quarterbacks over there and was still a very productive
2:18:39
player. So I think that kind of adapt,
2:18:41
adaptability can make it work for somebody like.
2:18:44
He is undersized. You'll have to worry about these
2:18:47
kind of guys in the NFL and I'm going to tell you right now,
2:18:50
Andy Reid decides to go after this kid and take some on a whim
2:18:54
again like they did with Xavier Worthy.
2:18:57
It might fail again. I I just don't stop trying to
2:19:00
compare him to some other players.
2:19:02
Tyreek Hill, he was special. He was a six round talent.
2:19:05
You got lucky with him. Stop.
2:19:07
Oh, this guy fits the mold of Andy Reid.
2:19:10
Please stop. Yeah, stop.
2:19:12
He does. He's a gadget guy.
2:19:13
You know him. Andy Reid.
2:19:14
You're. Going to draft a gadget guy.
2:19:16
Gadget. He's better figure out how to
2:19:19
good guys in different. Ways.
2:19:20
All right, I'm going to draft in gadget.
2:19:22
But I'm not saying he's going first round.
2:19:24
No, I agree with you on that. He don't go first round, but
2:19:27
he's definitely a guy that can impact the game and definitely
2:19:30
shift the momentum in a game because he has that type of
2:19:32
quickness at breakaway speed. And he's a gadget guy.
2:19:34
So you can line them like speed set, you can line them up all
2:19:37
over the place and and that's the create different offensive
2:19:41
sets with him. But it just depends on the
2:19:43
coach, you know, if he gets to the right system, he could be
2:19:45
dangerous, you know, And so that's what it's going to come
2:19:47
down to as far as a guy like him.
2:19:49
But outside of that, he might go to a team that, you know, put
2:19:52
him as punt returners like that special team, like the chance.
2:19:55
You'd be surprised. I was waiting.
2:19:59
I was waiting for you to say. I would consider it if if
2:20:02
there's no the two DTS, we'll get to the DTS on Monday more.
2:20:05
But Kayla Banks, Oregon Peter was if they're not there for
2:20:07
Buffalo, I would consider it for Buffalo.
2:20:11
At look, this is a guy that someone is going to trade up
2:20:14
for, whether it's at the top of the second round or late in the
2:20:17
first round, someone you know, you know, offensive coaches.
2:20:21
Q You know these guys, you know these gentlemen, you know what
2:20:26
they want. I know what the guy.
2:20:27
Who can break this? I know you're nuts, I know
2:20:30
you've lost your mind, but that's fine.
2:20:32
I'm just telling you it might not work, but someone is going
2:20:35
to make a move for him. Oh, he's going to make a move.
2:20:36
I'm going to flip it after I take a dump, you know?
2:20:39
We're going to flip that I'll. Flip it like a pink tink.
2:20:41
See Q Don't worry, Errol. Errol will change his mind if he
2:20:45
has 125 yards and a touchdown with the Gremlin as his primary
2:20:49
defender. Please, that guy's not going to
2:20:52
stop a lick either. By the way, Fish, I I want to
2:20:55
throw you a curveball on that. What did I tell you?
2:20:57
What I thought the gremlin was going to be in the NFL.
2:20:59
He was going to be a stay and home corner.
2:21:03
You said he was going to be a wide receiver.
2:21:05
He failed, no. No, no, no.
2:21:08
I'm not talking to you. You.
2:21:09
I'm talking a fish. I'm talking a fish.
2:21:13
Fish is the one that told me this guy is going to be a wide
2:21:16
receiver. I said he was going to fail.
2:21:18
I said he was going to fail. He wasn't going to be any good
2:21:21
and he's going to be pushed a corner because that's all he can
2:21:23
play in the NFL at a high level. I was right and I told.
2:21:26
You the Jaguars, I said. He's going to be a full time
2:21:28
corner. That means I was right.
2:21:32
I was. Right.
2:21:32
Hey fish, you're the deuce of the day.
2:21:36
Hey, you got to, you got to score points.
2:21:38
QQ. You got to score points, man.
2:21:40
He didn't. What did he do on defense, huh?
2:21:42
You got to score points. Listen, we'll see.
2:21:45
We'll we'll see what happens with Travis Hunter in his
2:21:47
career. Maybe he'll end up on The Jets.
2:21:49
Oh please never keep the fall fall with Harold and his.
2:21:52
Fandom as a Jets fan, keep. Fall far away from my.
2:21:55
Organization. The interview.
2:21:58
That sounds like a great Rick. Johnson, I do not want him.
2:22:01
I see Brick making that move on Madden.
2:22:03
Wipe it out, I don't want him here.
2:22:06
Fisher Madden allowed him to play both positions though out.
2:22:09
Here at the press conference. Dude, if I go to a press
2:22:13
conference with Travis Hunter there and he's holding that Jets
2:22:16
jersey, I will barf. I will literally barf right
2:22:20
there for all the media to see me.
2:22:22
Tell me, tell me that I'm out of line and I'm crazy because I'm
2:22:26
going to say this guy's a bust, He sucks, and of course he's
2:22:29
coming to my team because he blows.
2:22:31
Harry, go. No, that's all you can.
2:22:33
Replace Caitlin Carte Jersey with new.
2:22:35
York, you're right. You're probably right.
2:22:37
Oh yeah. He has one already, don't worry.
2:22:39
I'm going to give you a receiver that I know you like, though.
2:22:41
Now with this next one, it's Omar Cooper, Junior National.
2:22:44
Champion. I like him.
2:22:45
This guy is was probably thought of as a second round pick until
2:22:49
he got this exposure. And he's a first round.
2:22:51
Really well, and he's going to be, it looks like he's going to
2:22:54
be a late first round type of guy again. 1 1/2 year started
2:22:58
Indiana primarily out of the slot.
2:23:01
This year 83%, you know, again and a lot of like, you know,
2:23:05
read and dump it off type of RPO simple schemes in there.
2:23:08
But again, when he was going deep, he was making plays, 69
2:23:12
catches, 937 yards. They had a bunch of receiving
2:23:17
touchdowns. People are going to have his
2:23:19
doubters right because of that offense.
2:23:22
How many How many first round picks does the Raiders have?
2:23:26
Still 2 as of now. I'm going to tell you this right
2:23:28
now. Omar Cooper is as good as a
2:23:31
Raider bucket. He will be a Raider.
2:23:35
Take that. Remember I said that?
2:23:37
Remember I said that for all you fans, Flip it like a pancake.
2:23:41
Flip it like a pancake, like a waffle, like a waffle.
2:23:44
I like my waffles. Nice buttermilk.
2:23:46
I think they want faster. Guys, I'm telling you, Omar
2:23:49
Cooper Junior will be a Raider. Have you seen the wide receiver
2:23:53
drafting the fastest guy in the draft history?
2:23:56
It's not very good. Remember I said that?
2:23:59
Remember I. Said I was.
2:24:01
Going to say with Cooper, I I think big slot, I think is the
2:24:04
ideal thing for him. I think he was a good touchdown
2:24:07
guy, good contestant catch guy. I think he has a first round
2:24:09
pick. I think his route tree still has
2:24:11
to be developed a little more, but I do think he's worth the
2:24:14
the pick. That.
2:24:16
Needs a bigger bodied receiver. A team that need has a bunch of
2:24:19
small guys to compliment it with somebody else.
2:24:21
So I do think he's a first round pick, but I think there's some
2:24:23
traits in his game that still need to grow.
2:24:26
Yeah, I I think he's late first round, possibly second round for
2:24:31
sure, But I think he's very consistent, good big spot wide
2:24:34
receiver like Speedy said. But you know, being there, they
2:24:38
went deep into the playoffs and then he's coming up on the what
2:24:41
is Cinetti Cinetti coaching? I think he has a good chance of,
2:24:46
you know, touching the back end of the first round or definitely
2:24:49
the second round. Cart Signetti, AKA the guy that
2:24:51
Doc Rivers stole a quote from. Yeah.
2:24:55
You know, this guy's a good football player.
2:24:57
You might not have all the intangibles.
2:24:58
This is a guy that normally goes in the second round and you go,
2:25:01
why this guy go in the second round?
2:25:02
He's going to go in the first round because of the exposure.
2:25:05
But he's not flashy at anything. He's just good at everything.
2:25:08
And you want guys like that on your team.
2:25:09
I think there's no question who he is like, like the top
2:25:12
possession slot guy, you know, red zone, dangerous guy in the
2:25:16
red zone that you want doing slot fades and things like that.
2:25:19
So. Good.
2:25:19
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know all that?
2:25:21
Yeah, so let's get last receiver we're going to talk about
2:25:24
tonight is the guy from Boston, from Washington. 2 year starter,
2:25:31
wide out 81% of the time, productive at all three levels,
2:25:36
deep, me, intermediate and short, really good in the red
2:25:40
zone. 14 of his 20 catches in the red zone, he's going to be
2:25:44
the guy that teams are looking to if they want the big, big,
2:25:48
big threat. Reminds me of Courtland Sutton.
2:25:52
That's who he reminds me of. He's got tremendous strength.
2:25:55
He can run a route. He's got speed, I don't know,
2:25:59
lightning speed, where he's going to completely beat you.
2:26:01
Upper body strength, can catch the ball.
2:26:04
He's going to be a guy that teams are going to be looking
2:26:06
at. If you need a red zone guy, he's
2:26:08
the guy. I don't think he's a first round
2:26:10
talent. I I think he's a third round
2:26:12
talent. He will fall out of the second
2:26:14
round but he's fun to watch. I think he could be a good
2:26:17
player depending on where he goes.
2:26:18
It's all about fitting the scheme.
2:26:21
But Cortland Sutton remind he reminds me of.
2:26:24
It's odd because he's got the red zone stats.
2:26:26
You would think like a possession receiver with the
2:26:28
size that you would think of a quicker slot receiver.
2:26:31
And that's what's weird about his body type and that's why I
2:26:33
definitely don't think he's a first round pick.
2:26:35
I could see him as a late second round or like you said, a third
2:26:37
round pick. He's just a weird body type that
2:26:39
I don't know in a Washington offense that's been a kind of up
2:26:42
and down since Caitlin de Boer left.
2:26:43
He played well I think against Oregon this year and some other
2:26:46
good teams, but again, I don't know if production grades in
2:26:49
certain games are going to level to A.
2:26:50
Good. I don't know how nobody brought
2:26:51
up Kenyan static. He's next.
2:26:54
I just did receivers before the Titans.
2:26:56
And. He was another one that played
2:26:58
mostly outside fish. I think he was like an 89%
2:27:01
outside for a guy that's like 180 lbs and it kind of weird
2:27:04
body type. I don't see that working as a
2:27:06
number one. Maybe it's a two or three in the
2:27:07
right system, but definitely not a first round pick, second
2:27:10
round, third round pick. Yeah, I got him down probably
2:27:14
mid second, late, late second. I think that, you know, he would
2:27:17
probably fall into that tier. What's the top receiver guys get
2:27:22
out of the get out of the draft? They probably be, you know, rise
2:27:25
up to the top of that board. Good big target.
2:27:28
Like you said, he's definitely a red zone target.
2:27:30
So yeah, I think he's a good receiver.
2:27:32
I think this second round, late second, late second round.
2:27:38
I look, you don't. You never know if the
2:27:40
athleticism translates to the NFL, especially when you have a
2:27:44
guy with questionable athleticism, you know, at the
2:27:47
position. I don't know.
2:27:49
I wouldn't take him until late second round, early third round.
2:27:51
I completely agree with you guys.
2:27:52
You just don't want to take you risk that kind of capital and
2:27:55
the guy, you don't know what he's going to be at.
2:27:57
Right. Yeah, he'll be there.
2:27:59
You know he's not going to be. He's not nobody that jumped off
2:28:01
the screen, but he is a guy that you got to consider when you're
2:28:04
in the red zone. All right, let's do it.
2:28:07
Errol. This is a guy, this is going to
2:28:09
be the number one tight end taken in the draft.
2:28:11
Kenyan Siddiq. We all watched him in the
2:28:13
playoffs and watched him all season.
2:28:16
He's listed at #16 on this list. Only a one year starter at
2:28:22
Oregon, right? Lined up all over the formation.
2:28:25
But he's in line. Tight end 1/4 of the time, big
2:28:29
slot a little over half the time.
2:28:31
They split them out every once in a while.
2:28:33
He led the Ducks with 51 catches.
2:28:35
Again, they don't throw a lot, but that was a program record
2:28:39
for tight ends at just 51 catches.
2:28:41
He had eight touchdowns, which was the most in all FBS 4 tight
2:28:46
ends. He's just super freaky.
2:28:49
You know, athleticism. It just screams Kyle Pitts.
2:28:52
You know when you talk about him, the same type of
2:28:54
conversations we. Had it's not as big as Kyle
2:28:56
Pitts. But the athleticism, he might be
2:28:59
faster and he may be a little bit more dynamic with the ball
2:29:03
in his hands after the catch. Reminds me of Jimmy Graham.
2:29:07
That's what he reminds me of. I love this kid.
2:29:10
I absolutely love this kid. He's fast, a light, a lot faster
2:29:14
than he looks on film. But he's so fast.
2:29:17
Great hands, jumps very high, as you saw at the combine.
2:29:21
He is fun. He's athletically gifted.
2:29:24
Anybody that takes this kid in the draft is getting a start an
2:29:28
absolute stud, an absolute game changing stud love him.
2:29:33
He's going in the top 12 if he falls out of the top 12.
2:29:36
If he falls to 16, The Jets cannot skip him as much as they
2:29:40
drafted. I'm I'm taking I'm taking Kenyan
2:29:43
Sonic. I I love this kid.
2:29:46
I'm I'm telling you he is a game changing explosive player.
2:29:50
Love can. He throw himself the ball.
2:29:53
Yeah, what? What?
2:29:54
What if Simpson there maybe. What if Christmas?
2:29:56
There, we're going to talk about him.
2:29:58
At the end, I don't think Ty Simpsons going to be there for
2:30:00
The Jets at 16. But if he's there, you take in.
2:30:03
Who are you taking? No, I would take Ty Simpson, but
2:30:05
he's not going to be there, so. Yeah, I don't.
2:30:08
Know about that? I'm telling you, I don't think.
2:30:10
He's fish. You talked about he was only a
2:30:11
one year starter, but there was also a lot of good guys in that
2:30:14
in that system for a while. One of us has been on our show,
2:30:16
Terence Ferguson was a two year starter there and he was going
2:30:19
to touchdown machine for them for a while.
2:30:21
So he started kind of as a blocking tight end there.
2:30:23
Before that it was Justin Herbert's brother Patrick that
2:30:26
was there for a while and then this year with Jelani Johnson.
2:30:28
So you look at all the guys that are with, he still put up those
2:30:31
types of numbers, won awards amidst having a lot of
2:30:34
competition around him. This is a definite first round
2:30:36
talent. I agree.
2:30:38
I want to say something about Ty Simpson for everybody to
2:30:41
understand something. He is gone.
2:30:43
He has gone to multiple teams for second interviews over the
2:30:48
last two weeks. I'm telling you, he is not
2:30:52
going. If he's there at 16, The Jets
2:30:54
better scoop him up. We'll talk.
2:30:56
About him? Scoop him up.
2:30:58
He's on the list. Scoop him up, but he won't be.
2:31:01
He has a Dick. I'm going to go a little further
2:31:04
back. He give me Shannon Sharpe vibe.
2:31:07
That's even. Better those guys, that's even
2:31:09
better. I think he definitely will go.
2:31:12
I think late 1st if that, but I'm more hanging on to the top,
2:31:17
top of the second round. I don't necessarily think he
2:31:20
makes it I. Take him.
2:31:21
I take him first in the second round.
2:31:22
If I'm the just, I take him in the second round at #1 bam, we
2:31:28
got him. Yeah.
2:31:29
He ain't going to be there, so he won't be.
2:31:31
But there's there's I would be shocked.
2:31:33
I think he goes top 15, top 20 the.
2:31:36
Top 12, He's going top 12, definitely top 12.
2:31:39
Yeah, 13. I don't think he gets out of 20.
2:31:42
That be a shock of the draft. I think is just of how his
2:31:45
athletic numbers at the combine were.
2:31:47
He might fall. Yeah.
2:31:48
He prepared to be shot. It's the position, it's the
2:31:51
tight. He might fall a couple of dude,
2:31:52
but he could be used as a wide receiver.
2:31:55
That's the thing. He's fast, so I'm just saying
2:31:59
he's big. And he's going.
2:32:01
He's going to be. Easy target, I might not be 66.
2:32:03
But I'm big too. Maybe I can run in the?
2:32:05
NFL, but you can run straightforward like that in
2:32:08
college and me, you're going to have to have some wiggle.
2:32:10
I I got some wiggle, I got some wiggle.
2:32:12
Fish, fish. I had the wiggle the other day.
2:32:14
I was constipated. Fish, you brought the Kyle
2:32:16
Pittsford comparison. Sorry, Qi Know you like the
2:32:18
Steelers, but you can't have the Steelers draft him To have
2:32:21
Arthur Smith ruin him like he ruined Kyle Pitts.
2:32:24
Spread his shirts. Even like DK makeup, you know
2:32:26
what I mean? Like.
2:32:28
Mario Yeah. But Arthur, Arthur Smith's
2:32:30
coaching, you can't trust that. Yeah.
2:32:32
No, you can't trust Arthur Smith at all.
2:32:33
I don't know why he's. Would you stick a finger in his
2:32:36
ass? Well, no.
2:32:37
Let's get into the last couple of guys on this list.
2:32:39
I just threw him at the end. I got #20 we got some lineman
2:32:43
again. We got Blake Miller, the Clemson
2:32:47
tackle. He's right tackle.
2:32:49
I actually like him 9 I like him.
2:32:51
Max. I'm going to butcher the name
2:32:53
Max I, he and a chore from Arizona State.
2:32:58
We got Chase Besantis, the A&M guard that everyone likes, and
2:33:02
then at #42 on his list. Errol is Ty Simpson, who he's
2:33:09
calling a poor man's Daniel Jones.
2:33:13
Well. He's going to be.
2:33:15
He's going. To be.
2:33:17
Wrong about that. He's going to be really wrong
2:33:19
about that one. I don't know.
2:33:20
That's got a hair door right there.
2:33:23
Hey, listen. Hey, I'm just telling you he's
2:33:26
wrong about that one. I'm just saying.
2:33:28
I like this guy for this. OK, you like that.
2:33:32
Guy now fish. Are you judging it as the way
2:33:34
you think of Daniel Jones or the way Errol thinks of Daniel
2:33:36
Jones? I.
2:33:37
Actually love Daniel Jones. Wait now, and I'm saying a poor
2:33:41
man's version where he's shorter, not as strong, not as
2:33:44
fast, better. Footwork can throw the ball
2:33:47
better than great arm, right? So if he breaks away on a QB
2:33:52
draw wide open, does he fall? Dude, you obviously didn't watch
2:33:56
enough man. You obviously didn't watch
2:33:58
enough for Tie. No, I ask you, I'm asking you a
2:34:01
question. What are you asking?
2:34:03
Me if he breaks. No, he's not your guy, Mr. Butt
2:34:08
Fumbler. Himself, is he going down by the
2:34:11
blade of grass? Does he take it and.
2:34:13
Take it down. I I think, I think he's monster.
2:34:16
I think he's gifted. He had no offensive tackles last
2:34:19
year. He really could.
2:34:20
Nobody stayed healthy for me. Had no running game.
2:34:23
He had no wide receivers. Wide receivers couldn't stay
2:34:26
healthy. This guy is going to be a steal.
2:34:30
I'm telling you. Remember I said this, I'm right
2:34:33
about Ty Simpson. The Jets or anybody that drafts
2:34:36
him has got to sit him for a year.
2:34:38
He's got to sit. He's got to learn the offense
2:34:40
wherever he goes. If he does that, I'm telling
2:34:43
you, he's going to be a great player in this league.
2:34:46
I love him. Blake Miller, by the way, I like
2:34:48
him a lot better than some of the tackles and some of the
2:34:51
guards that you mentioned. Ugly hairdo.
2:34:53
But he was a wrestler. He was an elite wrestler in
2:34:57
college. I love in high school.
2:34:59
This kid is a a beast. He he works in the farms, baby.
2:35:04
I'm loving him. Tell me, I'm going to tell you
2:35:06
this. Blake Miller, whoever gets him,
2:35:09
probably second round talent, maybe third.
2:35:11
Like him, Grab him, scoop him, develop him.
2:35:15
Got yourself a nice player? Yep, I actually had him ahead of
2:35:18
Proctor who we mentioned and. Wrestler.
2:35:20
And Lomo, I think whoever won is, uh, thinking Miller.
2:35:22
'S state Allstate wrestler baby. Very well-rounded player and a
2:35:26
lot of different offensive. I think Clemson had all these
2:35:28
different offensive coordinators.
2:35:29
Just got rid of Lincoln Rogers. Changed his hairstyle by the way
2:35:32
he looks like a mop on his. He got Clemson, just got rid of
2:35:35
uh, ugly, ugly guy Can Riley son Garrett, who had a good first
2:35:39
year last year with with Clemson, but then fall off this
2:35:42
year. But he's been with a lot of
2:35:43
different schemes. That's why I think it could
2:35:44
work. Fish, like you were mentioning
2:35:46
before, one of the hardest workers in this draft.
2:35:48
I think you see a lot of different traits in his game
2:35:50
that. Definitely we.
2:35:51
Definitely can make him that I I think he'll be a second round
2:35:55
pick, but I think he's a first round.
2:35:56
I am telling you right now, this guy can pound you and ground you
2:36:01
on the floor. This guy's a beast.
2:36:04
A beast. He's going to take you and drop
2:36:06
you on your head. Everybody doesn't need an
2:36:08
offensive tap and that's what Speedy says.
2:36:10
So that's why I agree with Speedy.
2:36:11
I think he goes into the second round.
2:36:13
He's a hell of a talent that doesn't, you know, that's not to
2:36:17
knock him for his talent or his ability, but I just think that
2:36:21
with the knees and the people that they already have ahead of
2:36:23
him, I don't think that he makes it into the first round, but
2:36:27
definitely coming off that board earlier in the second round.
2:36:29
I love. Him I.
2:36:31
Have I have it written down here before?
2:36:34
I looked at the notes of what they were saying about him.
2:36:37
Plays very smart with his leverage.
2:36:39
This guy just. No slur in front of you.
2:36:42
Slur. Because he's a genius with his
2:36:44
leverage almost. It's just it's just really good.
2:36:47
He can get to the if he knows he's like setting you up with
2:36:51
this kind of like torquing, turning a circular force punch
2:36:55
with like a palm strike to and he's so quick with his feet.
2:36:58
He's doing 2. Three hit combos on you, right?
2:37:00
He's really, really good with his technique.
2:37:04
Like Aaron said, he's the rest of the stuff.
2:37:05
He knew how to be his body. This is different.
2:37:08
Bro this is the guy you want? Yeah, this is you don't get
2:37:11
offense alignment with wrestling background either, so that's
2:37:14
good. Baby, I always made my storm in
2:37:16
wrestle. Lives on the farm.
2:37:18
This guy's picking up those bushes.
2:37:20
He's beating up, you know, picking up cows.
2:37:23
I mean this. There you go.
2:37:24
This is the guy, man. This is the guy.
2:37:26
Man, I'm. Taking them good, but I ain't
2:37:29
got them down for that. I'm taking them.
2:37:30
I'm doing the thriller. The thriller.
2:37:32
It's coming out this. Week.
2:37:34
All right, let's talk about the Arizona State tackle Max.
2:37:39
I I he Archer, Speedy. Tell me how to pronounce.
2:37:42
It I don't know I. I I, I, I, not sure that sounds
2:37:45
better. All right, This guy is a 2 1/2
2:37:48
year start at Arizona State. Right tackle, gap scheme, right
2:37:52
tackle. We haven't had a lot of those.
2:37:54
Played his best ball as a senior.
2:37:55
No sax allowed. Was really good in the Senior
2:37:57
Bowl. He has really good footwork and
2:38:00
body control. His hands are a little off at
2:38:03
times, but I think he has the most patient hands of anybody in
2:38:07
this draft. He will set you up.
2:38:10
He's just waiting for you to make a move and he's going to
2:38:13
absolutely have you. Once you do, his hands are ready
2:38:16
to strike at all times and he stays back from you.
2:38:19
He is a problem to solve and I don't know how you do it unless
2:38:23
you are just way more athletic than him and he's pretty
2:38:26
athletic. These last two guys, Ian Achor
2:38:29
and Miller, I would I wouldn't really have a problem taking
2:38:34
them at the end of the first round.
2:38:35
I think they're both that good. Well, I'm reading a little bit
2:38:38
about Max and he came from Nigeria at 13 years old.
2:38:42
He didn't start playing football until his later high school
2:38:47
time. So you're talking about 15-16
2:38:49
years old. JPP, remember him?
2:38:52
I was pretty successful in the NFL before he blew his hands off
2:38:55
or fingers off. We all know that.
2:38:58
Yes, But this guy was a soccer player at a high level and Billy
2:39:02
basketball. This guy's very athletic,
2:39:05
athletically gifted, and he will knock you around.
2:39:08
He's big, he's strong. I'm reading all these things
2:39:11
about him and he did on, but he played unbelievable at the
2:39:14
senior ball. Yeah, he's definitely a guy that
2:39:18
has a well-rounded combination of everything.
2:39:20
Like you said, the background of, of, of growing up in
2:39:23
Nigeria, we've interviewed Krishna Koi, we've interviewed a
2:39:26
lot of other football players that have grown up there.
2:39:27
It's tough to do that, especially as an offense
2:39:29
alignment to you. You need to really have that
2:39:31
kind of training and. He's wrong.
2:39:33
That's the only he's wrong. That's why I think he'll still
2:39:35
be a second round pick. But I think again, that Kenny
2:39:37
Dillingham system has always been strong offensively.
2:39:39
And I think because of the way that the multiple concepts that
2:39:43
are used, I think he'll still be able to be adaptable in the NFL
2:39:46
second round grade, but can be a good valuable pick for somebody
2:39:49
early in the second round. Yeah, I love his patience.
2:39:52
I think that, you know when he waits on the defender.
2:39:55
So one thing about a defense defensive end or deep Taco is
2:40:00
that we love to see the offense a lot, hands versus candidate
2:40:02
that kind of dictate what kind of move we're going to use.
2:40:04
But he has a lot of patience that you can see that he trusts
2:40:07
that athleticism that he got and developed through playing
2:40:10
soccer. So I like what I see out of them
2:40:13
with very aggressive. But it also very patient, which
2:40:16
is kind of hard to do it with both in regards to being an
2:40:19
offensive tackle. So I got him as a second round
2:40:22
grade, but definitely a great pick up for somebody for sure.
2:40:26
Errol, if The Jets won a lineman and put him at a, you know,
2:40:31
slide somebody put him anywhere, this guy's going to be able to
2:40:33
do it for you. Anyone he if anyone's going to
2:40:36
be able to wait on a defensive player like this, he's going to
2:40:39
be good in the NFLII would be shocked if he's not really good,
2:40:44
we have to. Be good for him too.
2:40:46
And we don't know how good he's going to because he's still very
2:40:48
new to the game with this. So I I I'm excited about him as
2:40:52
it's a prospect. Top of the second round.
2:40:54
This is the guy you want. I think.
2:40:56
All right, last guy of the night.
2:40:58
And then we're going to be done and we'll get into Lex parlay.
2:41:02
In fact, speedy, we were going to go to a break.
2:41:04
We don't need to. We'll take it right to it and
2:41:07
and then we'll go to the break. But here we after Lex parlay,
2:41:10
Chase Basantis, everyone got a big profile.
2:41:14
Everyone likes him. He's the the mauling guard from
2:41:17
Texas A and M3 year starter left guard pretty balanced gap in
2:41:23
zone right tackle his first year, but he got a little bit
2:41:26
bigger. They put him at guard all SEC
2:41:28
blocker this year in the run game.
2:41:31
I mean, he's a beast. He's strong.
2:41:34
He's going to torque people think about Oh my God, the
2:41:38
name's on the tip of my tongue. The guy that was the bully, the
2:41:40
fake bully, that was the old pro guard back in the day?
2:41:44
No, the guy who bullied him, Richie Incognito type.
2:41:48
That's who this is. He's a mean, beat you up type of
2:41:52
guard. Is he good at everything?
2:41:54
I would say there are some issues, like if it's not right
2:41:58
in front of him and you have to have him pull or chase somebody,
2:42:00
I don't think he's that great. But if it's any kind of down
2:42:03
scheme or gap scheme where he doesn't have to be the one
2:42:06
pulling, he's doing the down block.
2:42:08
You don't want to deal with this guy.
2:42:09
This guy is me. Well, look at the think about
2:42:12
his combine numbers. He ran a 40 and five point O2.
2:42:16
Think about that five point O2. His total score was fourth out
2:42:22
of all the guards in the combine, 78.
2:42:26
He's athletically gifted. His broad jump was an 8-9.
2:42:30
I mean his vertical leap, his jump was 32.
2:42:33
His cones were 1.76 seconds. I mean, this guy athletically
2:42:39
gifted, now, I don't know if he's not a first or a second
2:42:42
round, he'll fall to the third round.
2:42:44
But athletically gifted you, you wait until the late second
2:42:47
round, early third round, you can, you can get yourself a nice
2:42:50
good player. I like him.
2:42:52
I like him a lot. Yeah, I like him a lot too.
2:42:54
This is a guy that I think is a good downhill run blocker both
2:42:57
on in the middle and also I wouldn't say exotic schemes
2:43:00
fish, but I would say is still some outside concepts.
2:43:02
I think you saw that. Remember, they switched from
2:43:04
Jimbo Fischer to Mike Elko. They brought over a lot of those
2:43:07
concepts from Duke we saw with Riley Leonard we saw with their
2:43:09
running backs, and I think he adapted to that very well.
2:43:12
Yeah, he's not a perfect prospect that he'll probably go
2:43:14
in the second round, I think mid second round.
2:43:16
From New Jersey to probably. Most likely, but still very
2:43:18
strong jersey and like you're saying, Errol go with those cone
2:43:20
drills because he's got good good.
2:43:21
Side side 315 lbs and ran a 40 and 5.02.
2:43:26
Yep. And the cone drills like you
2:43:28
were saying, the side to side lateral movement is something
2:43:30
I've always been impressed with him as well.
2:43:31
Yeah, it might be a little still raw with the pass block.
2:43:33
I think that has to improve a little, but again, he doesn't.
2:43:36
If you're drafting the second round, you're not gonna have to
2:43:37
be the best guard on your team right away, the best offensive
2:43:40
lineman on that on that team. That is probably the biggest
2:43:42
team unit of any unit. In the game, it's got pretty big
2:43:44
hands too. 934 pretty damn good, yeah.
2:43:48
I like I like the Santos a lot. I think whoever drafts right in
2:43:51
the probably mid second round. Oh, I'm sorry, it's that big.
2:43:53
I mean 31, but I that might that make him drop, But everything
2:43:59
else about him beastly 6 five, yeah.
2:44:03
Definitely, definitely spot on what you guys said.
2:44:06
I think he could be a third round grade.
2:44:08
I think he also is very aggressive.
2:44:11
So when you got guys that are very aggressive that usually
2:44:13
tend to put their head down there.
2:44:15
So he definitely would struggle a little bit on the past
2:44:18
attempt. But as far as a pulling guard
2:44:19
you probably don't want, you probably ain't going to see
2:44:21
nothing too much better than that coming out of his class.
2:44:24
Look, I he's a local guy. This is this is Don Bosco, the
2:44:29
The Pride of Tommy Cutlets. Yeah.
2:44:31
Name. School.
2:44:33
All right, Don Bosco. I drive by it all the time.
2:44:35
I'm Niffin. I can see the giants pulling the
2:44:38
plug. I can see the Giants pulling the
2:44:39
plug on this thing. I hope they.
2:44:41
Don't they get they get 2 pits in third round, right?
2:44:45
No, they only have. One they got flap down.
2:44:47
It's a second round pick. They don't have a third round
2:44:49
pick. Or they don't got a third round,
2:44:50
Yeah. So just quick on this guy.
2:44:53
I, I'm not as high on him. I, I look, he's, he's an
2:44:57
athlete, but he's the better athlete than what his tape
2:45:00
shows. His tape has shown him getting
2:45:02
beat on the outside a lot. His hands fall off guys like
2:45:07
he's got to, he's got to work on the technique.
2:45:09
He needs to go to somewhere good.
2:45:10
He's I think he's a little bit further down in my opinion,
2:45:14
towards the end of the second early 3rd and some of these
2:45:16
other guys that we've seen talked about tonight, but guys
2:45:19
that is the NFL draft offensive prospect preview.
2:45:24
We will get into the defense, which is a little loaded this
2:45:30
year, on Monday. Turn that fifth over.
2:45:33
Turn that 5th over. Dip and weave, baby dip and.
2:45:36
Weave. Do the tick tock dance.
2:45:37
Let me see the Tick Tock dance. I'm losing it tonight, man.
2:45:47
I'm losing it. This is the second time, the
2:45:49
second night we didn't have a guess, but we're we're killing
2:45:51
it. And I got to give us a little
2:45:52
bit of credit we. Went shout out to the no guess.
2:45:55
No. Guess.
2:45:56
Who needs a guess? The goats we.
2:45:58
We stood up twice this week. Who needs a guess at 1:30?
2:46:03
Who else batting 130 for the Yankees?
2:46:05
A lot of them I'm going to tell you.
2:46:07
A lot of them for the Mets too, unfortunately.
2:46:10
Well, we're going to get to talk about the Yankees and after the
2:46:14
next break, but do we have Johnny Reno ready to go?
2:46:17
Johnny is in still waiting on Wes.
2:46:20
Thank you. You want to.
2:46:21
Go to break. Why don't we go to break and
2:46:23
then we'll get let's parlay going.
2:46:25
All right, let's go to a quick break.
2:46:26
When we come back, we have Johnny Reno.
2:46:28
Hopefully his son doesn't think I'm too old.
2:46:30
I did shave my beard. So.
2:46:32
And by the way, everybody that saw that, that picture with the
2:46:35
rubber duckies, they were like that didn't even look like me.
2:46:38
They said that you know what? They thought that was Rabel.
2:46:41
They thought that was Mike Rabel with the rubber duckies, not me.
2:46:45
Just so you know, hey, that's that's just an AI Rabel view
2:46:48
right now. I I don't know where you get the
2:46:50
Gray, but whatever. Anyways, when we come back,
2:46:53
we'll have let's parlay we have in like flan concrete jungle and
2:46:56
dial it up. Goodbye this.
2:47:01
Is a New York sports loudmouth sportsman ads.
2:47:05
All right guys, Aaron Fisherman back at you with another sports
2:47:08
minute, going to get into some stories and then we'll get the
2:47:11
scores. The Detroit Tigers announced on
2:47:14
Wednesday that they've given rookie infielder Kevin Mcgonigal
2:47:16
an 8 year contract extension worth $150 million.
2:47:21
Mcgonigal is 21 years old, became the youngest Tigers
2:47:24
player named to an Opening Day roster in over 20 years and has
2:47:28
been excellent early on. Splitting time between 3rd and
2:47:30
short, hitting 313 with a Homer, a stolen base, twelve walks to
2:47:34
just 10 strikeouts to go along with a nine O 5 OPS, the future
2:47:38
star has impressed early and often.
2:47:40
As soon as we saw this kid play and saw the way he commands the
2:47:42
strike zone, fights for every pitch and uses the whole field,
2:47:45
it was like, wow, that's pretty interesting for an 18 year old
2:47:48
kid. That's Tigers president baseball
2:47:50
operations staff Scott Harris. We knew he could play the
2:47:52
infield and he had the right physical gifts.
2:47:55
It was just about how quickly everything would come together,
2:47:58
and they came together more quickly than I ever thought.
2:48:01
Mcgonigal, the number two overall prospect heading into
2:48:03
the season, becomes the 4th rookie to get paid big money
2:48:06
this year by mid-april, and he got the most, outpacing the
2:48:10
contracts for this year's #1 prospect Connor Griffin of the
2:48:12
Pirates, Colt Emerson of the Mariners, and Cooper Pratt of
2:48:16
the Brewers. Emerson and Pratt are actually
2:48:18
still in the minors despite getting paid.
2:48:21
This new school way of paying young potential stars before
2:48:23
they give any results in the big leagues certainly is new for the
2:48:26
game and clearly good for the small market teams or teams that
2:48:29
simply have no interest in trying to win with the deferred.
2:48:33
I'm sorry, the deferred dollars. The Dodgers have rode to
2:48:37
back-to-back titles and after playing in the Capitals last
2:48:42
game of the regular season on Tuesday at Columbus, Alexander
2:48:45
Ovechkin waved off members of the Blue Jackets after the
2:48:48
Capitals 2 to one win to finish off their season as they wanted
2:48:51
to send them off as if this were his last game in the NHL.
2:48:55
After the game, the Grade 8 spoke to the media.
2:48:56
To be honest with you, I'm pretty sure it's not my last
2:48:58
game. I hope it's not my last game
2:49:00
against Columbus. Said the 40 year old captain.
2:49:02
I have to make a decision to see where we're at.
2:49:04
The team, family, the kids are all asking me, dad, are you
2:49:07
staying or no? And I tell them we'll see.
2:49:09
They want me to come back. They love the city, they love
2:49:11
the team, they love the boys. Caps fans who made the trip to
2:49:14
Ohio serenaded Ovechkin with a chance of one more year
2:49:18
throughout the game and Ovechkin told reporters he could hear
2:49:20
them and it clearly impacted him.
2:49:22
While it isn't a done deal, the Capitals not making the playoffs
2:49:24
this year as they were eliminated 3 days ago probably
2:49:27
works in Ovechkin's favor. As if 40 years old, he will get
2:49:30
more time to rest up for one more.
2:49:31
Go at it and try to put his all time goals record farther out of
2:49:35
reach. This season, his 21st in the
2:49:38
NHL, Ovechkin had 30, two goals and 32 assists while playing in
2:49:42
all 82 games. Guys, we are streaming live on

2:52:00
We call this Let's parlay, parlay.
2:52:16
All right, so ladies and gentlemen, we have Reno.
2:52:21
Johnny, We're waiting for Wes. Is he coming in?
2:52:24
I. Texted him to come in, I'll say.
2:52:26
We'll see if he pops right in like a little baby like your son
2:52:30
who calls me Grandpa. All right, Reno, we got your top
2:52:35
three and your 4th to be your parlay.
2:52:38
Everybody knows how this game is played.
2:52:40
He's going to give you his top three and then he's going to
2:52:42
give you his fourth for his parlay.
2:52:45
Reno, give us your first. Yeah, we're going to the NBA
2:52:48
season started for me as it's playoff time and now we actually
2:52:51
got 10 guys on the court that are actually going to give a
2:52:54
damn, you know, and I will say that playing games were no have
2:52:58
not been disappointed so far. They've been good games.
2:53:01
Unfortunately, that's as good as the playoffs typically get.
2:53:04
I think when you get to the 72, you're gonna get a lot of 20
2:53:06
point games. The playing is probably the five
2:53:10
or six games that are the best throughout the entire season.
2:53:14
So that's why the product sucks. But we're going to be on them
2:53:16
tomorrow. I'm going to take the home team
2:53:19
in the first spot with the Magic.
2:53:22
I don't really understand the Warrants main points don't even
2:53:28
get me into La Mello ball. He should be suspended.
2:53:31
Do not tell me that was a you were falling didn't know where
2:53:33
you were. He got a slap on the wrist.
2:53:36
But the magic Guinea +4 at home. I think is very valuable.
2:53:40
Look, this team probably could have beat the Sixers a couple
2:53:43
shots late kind of sunk them their offense kind of sputtered
2:53:47
real bad in the second-half, especially late fourth quarter.
2:53:50
But they were right in position to beat the Sixers in that game
2:53:53
on the road. Now they're going to be at home.
2:53:55
I understand they're have a day less of rest.
2:53:59
I think they get the job done. I'm going to protect myself with
2:54:02
the four and a half. These games have been closed and
2:54:05
dogs have actually dominated in this playing tournament
2:54:08
historically, including this year.
2:54:10
I think one favorite has won and that was the Sixers at -2 1/2
2:54:13
and they came through. But every other person team,
2:54:16
this one has been dogs. So I'm going to stick with that
2:54:18
route. I think the Magic can win the
2:54:20
game, but I think it's going to be a close game.
2:54:24
So I'll take the plus 4 1/2. That was what I took and I've
2:54:28
already betted. That was yesterday.
2:54:29
The spreads down to 3 1/2. I do recommend to play at 3 1/2
2:54:33
or the money line, whatever you want to put your money on.
2:54:36
I think you're going to. You're not going to go wrong
2:54:38
either way. The nightcap, the game that is
2:54:42
the Warriors versus the Sun in this spot.
2:54:45
Again, I don't care that Steph Curry is hurt that we just see
2:54:49
him on one knee score 35 points or whatever it was single
2:54:54
handedly put the team on his back.
2:54:56
Draymond Green, I don't care what you say about the dude, his
2:54:59
defense comes to play when it matters the most.
2:55:02
This Warriors team is battle tested.
2:55:04
They have the experience and I just do not like the Suns team
2:55:08
top to bottom kind of laying on Evan Booker's your leader.
2:55:12
He's not probably the guy I want to put money on.
2:55:15
I'm getting plus points on this spot.
2:55:17
I'm going to throw away the points.
2:55:19
I'm going to take plus 134 on the Warriors to win the game
2:55:22
outright. And it just comes down to the
2:55:25
experience of this warriors roster, especially Steph Curry,
2:55:29
because he started making some dumb shots that you kind of were
2:55:33
like, damn, he's back. Those shots where he was making
2:55:35
when the when the Warriors were winning 72 games in the season
2:55:38
and he started making those in this playing games.
2:55:40
I do think they win the game out right.
2:55:42
And I'm going to take them on the money line again, Take the
2:55:45
points if you want to protect yourself.
2:55:46
I'm going to take the money line in that spot.
2:55:49
Let's head to the diamond. We got a couple interesting
2:55:52
matchups starting tomorrow. I'm going to take the look at
2:55:56
the Rockies and the Dodgers and I'm going to do something that
2:56:00
This is why it's one of those somebody might guarantee I'm
2:56:03
going to sprinkle the play on the Rockies.
2:56:06
Unpopular opinion, their offense isn't terrible.
2:56:09
They got a bunch of guys that are batting mid to high 2
2:56:11
hundreds, even some three hundreds.
2:56:13
Pitching hasn't been as bad as we would think.
2:56:18
And this in this season, like no matter how good the Dodgers are,
2:56:21
they're going to lose 30% of their games.
2:56:24
Maybe they lose this one. You're getting almost 3 to 1.
2:56:26
I think I got it at 2:50 to 60, somewhere in that range.
2:56:31
So I'm going to take a stab on the Rockies.
2:56:34
But baseball for me is a game, a sport where I'm trying to only
2:56:38
go 45% because I do hit a lot of underdogs.
2:56:41
So I don't need to make an 80 percent, 70% win rate.
2:56:46
So I'm going to take that as as my kind of sprinkle play.
2:56:49
And then the next game I'm going to take is the Orioles.
2:56:53
For those disclaimer, I'm an Orioles fan.
2:56:56
So when I bet the oil, it's really.
2:56:58
Really, I hope you're enjoying all the X Mets that have come
2:57:00
over there and done well. Yeah, you know when I bet the
2:57:04
Orioles and I have to really, really like the spot because as
2:57:08
a fan, I got to take it out of there and do I really think
2:57:10
they're gonna win the game. It for me, it's the value
2:57:12
they're getting plus 140 and you have two pitchers, especially
2:57:16
Bassett, who got paid millions of dollars to just.
2:57:19
That's the last time. To be dog shit.
2:57:21
OK, he's got a 70 all right, or 9 ERA or whatever it is, but you
2:57:25
have the the the guardians who's also not in not doing well.
2:57:29
This pitch matchup features an ERA of seven and ERA of nine.
2:57:33
And ultimately I kind of trust this Orioles offense a little
2:57:37
bit more. Yes, The Tonight they struggle.
2:57:39
They almost got no hit tonight. They almost got no hit and still
2:57:42
had a position to tie the game in the night.
2:57:44
Their offense just comes alive. They string together runs.
2:57:47
They do have a couple guys that hit home runs.
2:57:50
I think it's a good spot. So I'm going to take both the
2:57:52
two dogs in the NBA, two dogs in the MLB, take the money line dog
2:57:56
with with the Warriors and and of course we're going to take
2:58:00
the the points here with Orlando, but we're taking four
2:58:03
dogs tomorrow. We really just seen hit two and
2:58:06
we had two. We cash money.
2:58:07
So that's kind of what it comes down to, just value for me.
2:58:10
Hit 2, we lose 2 and we're still coming out on top.
2:58:12
All right, so Wes couldn't make it in person tonight, but he did
2:58:14
send over some pics so he. Doesn't smell my ass.
2:58:18
On the on the Warriors, but he disagrees with you on the other
2:58:20
one. He's got the Hornets at the 3
2:58:22
1/2. You had a + 4 1/2 four.
2:58:23
Breaking news. And believe it or not, Johnny
2:58:26
Wes actually had some baseball. Players he's.
2:58:28
Got the twins -1 1/2 and the Tigers on the money line.
2:58:31
There you go, the tigers on the money.
2:58:33
Money, money, money, money. Probably the only time you'll
2:58:35
see W bat baseball all year. There's Wes's picks.
2:58:39
It's. Popped up this season, we got
2:58:41
it. It's kind of cool because we got
2:58:42
baseball and it feeds right into World Cup and right after the
2:58:48
World Cup we got pre season football and we're back on boys.
2:58:52
Like it's kind of. What is that your cheer in the
2:58:55
background? What is?
2:58:57
He saying what is he saying? He he's, I don't know, when it
2:58:59
gets late like he's, he's like a baby on crack.
2:59:02
I don't really. Busy all day today right around.
2:59:05
He's off the walls. He might be naked right now to
2:59:08
be honest. That makes that makes us get out
2:59:11
of here. So thank you, Reno, Johnny,
2:59:13
we'll see you next week. I.
2:59:16
Don't want to get us in trouble now, All right.
2:59:18
It's enough. It's enough trouble.
2:59:20
I I've gotten myself into enough trouble on this show.
2:59:23
Would you rather have that or your son I call you grab
2:59:26
breaking news? I think it, I think it.
2:59:29
I think they did. Come on, I.
2:59:31
Needed to need. To come on naked.
2:59:34
Speedy. He had to cover the camera but I
2:59:36
did think he came on naked like 2 shows again.
2:59:38
Well, I was trying to stay away from that tonight anyways.
2:59:41
We call this in like Flynn, welcome.
2:59:44
To show it, my lady, I've often heard that you'd give me a warm
2:59:46
welcome if ever we met again in. Like flan, flan flan?
2:59:55
So we love hockey. We're hockey fans.
2:59:59
We're hockey fans on this show. So Fish kind of got me involved
3:00:04
with making hockey NHL Stanley Cup betting odds.
3:00:10
So that's what we're going to do.
3:00:11
So I checked out the odds sports book and I was looking at their
3:00:17
top 10. All right, so we're going to go.
3:00:20
I don't know how they have this now.
3:00:23
At #10 and I'm I'm reading right here from 36910 they got the
3:00:29
Utah Mammoths at a + 3500 The Utah Mammoth, they were a
3:00:37
franchise rookie franchise a couple of years ago.
3:00:40
They got some good young players on that roster.
3:00:42
Keller looks like he's going to be a fun player to watch in the
3:00:46
future. There is no way in hell this
3:00:50
team is a top ten team, so I'm going to make another move on
3:00:55
this. I'm going to have them jumped
3:00:57
three spots. I have the Los Angeles Kings,
3:01:01
they're at a + 7000. I think they're a + 3500.
3:01:05
I think the Kings have the 10th best chance of making the
3:01:10
Stanley Cup finals and winning the championship.
3:01:12
By the way, I'm just looking at the list now.
3:01:14
That is extremely disrespectful to Montreal too.
3:01:16
Yes, it is. But I don't think Montreal's in
3:01:18
the top ten either. I don't.
3:01:21
All right, at #9 they got the Minnesota Wild at a + 1700.
3:01:26
They're much higher than this. They're much higher than this.
3:01:29
I have no idea what they're thinking.
3:01:32
Here's where I would put this team.
3:01:34
They're at a + 5500. They're down.
3:01:37
I got the Anaheim Ducks. I got the Ducks.
3:01:40
I think the Ducks are absolutely a team that can win the Stanley
3:01:45
Cup this year. They're surprising.
3:01:46
They got some good young players.
3:01:48
They got some veterans. Yeah, they got a couple of your
3:01:50
guys crier and I like Toronto. I like them plus 1700.
3:01:56
I'd have them right over there at #8.
3:02:01
They have the Buffalo Sabres at plus 1800.
3:02:04
They're much higher than this. They're much higher than this at
3:02:07
#8. I'm going to put I'm, I'm, I'm
3:02:13
going crazy here. I'm going to put the Los Angeles
3:02:16
Kings. I didn't.
3:02:17
I put the Los Angeles Kings. No.
3:02:18
Yeah, you moved them up. I did move them up.
3:02:20
I'm sorry. So you know what?
3:02:22
I'm looking at the teams right now.
3:02:23
I'm going to put the Boston Bruins.
3:02:24
I'm going to bring the Boston Bruins up there.
3:02:27
They've got a good veteran team. They've got some good
3:02:29
goaltending. I'm going to put the Boston
3:02:31
Bruins right there at #8 at #7 they have the Utah Senator,
3:02:42
Ottawa Senator, Ottawa Senators are not in a top ten.
3:02:45
I have no idea what they're thinking.
3:02:47
I got the Buffalo Sabres moving down.
3:02:49
The Buffalo Sabres should be the plus 1600 team, Absolutely
3:02:53
should move up 100% at number six.
3:02:58
They have the Edmonton right, Number six.
3:03:01
Yep, I, they have the Edmonton Oilers, Edmonton Oil.
3:03:04
I I all right, I'll put Edmonton there.
3:03:08
I think Edmonton, you know what, screw that.
3:03:10
I don't want the Edmonton Oilers there.
3:03:12
I'm going to put Minnesota there.
3:03:13
Edmonton is not going to make the Stanley Cup finals this
3:03:16
year. I got the Minnesota Wild going
3:03:19
there. So they got Edmonton out of plus
3:03:21
1400. Edmonton doesn't even make it to
3:03:24
the finals this year. I don't even think they get to
3:03:26
the Western Conference finals. They have no goaltending.
3:03:29
I don't trust them and I I'm going to bet against them.
3:03:32
I got the Minnesota Wild jumping that spot to #6 at #5 they got
3:03:39
the Vegas Golden Knights. I like it.
3:03:42
Plus 1200. I would believe that that's
3:03:44
where they're at 100% at. Now here's here's the crazy.
3:03:50
It's a tricky spot. Dallas Stars at plus 1200.
3:03:54
Now, did I have the Buffalo Sabres here?
3:03:56
You you move Buffalo to 7 already.
3:03:58
All right, so I, I, I got to keep this, but I, I, I don't
3:04:01
like this. I'm going to, I'm going to say
3:04:03
they're right. Actually, you know what, I'm
3:04:04
going to jump them. I'm going to move Carolina to
3:04:09
four. I think Carolina is not a top
3:04:11
three team. They have no goaltending.
3:04:13
They never have goaltending. I don't trust Robber anymore.
3:04:15
A fact that they give him an extension makes no sense to me.
3:04:19
So I would put Carolina there at #3 I put the Dallas Stars.
3:04:23
They are absolutely. They're dangerous.
3:04:26
I love Robertson. I, I love this team.
3:04:29
I, I, I love everything about them.
3:04:31
I Jason Robertson is their leading goal scorer.
3:04:34
He was sensational this year. Love him.
3:04:37
I think he's I think this team is dangerous.
3:04:39
They got great offense. They got great gold.
3:04:40
So I got them at #3 at #2 definitely the Tampa Bay
3:04:46
Lightning. Kucherov is the number two
3:04:49
player right now in hockey right under Connor McDavid.
3:04:52
This guy, this guy was a fourth round draft pick.
3:04:55
Think about this. Steve Eiseman drafted this guy
3:04:58
in the fourth round. This guy is unbelievable.
3:05:01
He played 76 games this year, 44 goals, 86.86 assists, 130
3:05:08
points, right behind the greatest.
3:05:11
And Connor McDavid has 134 points.
3:05:14
Kucherov. This team is stacked.
3:05:16
They got great goaltending. Vasilovsky I mean, this team
3:05:21
would win in many different ways.
3:05:23
I think they're one of the favorites and they got one of
3:05:25
the best coaches in the NHL and Cooper love them.
3:05:28
And at #1 I would agree with them.
3:05:30
The Colorado Avalanche, the best team throughout the NHL all
3:05:37
season long. I don't think you can argue that
3:05:40
they're sensational. Nathan McKinnon, I mean, I'm
3:05:43
looking at the stack players that they have.
3:05:45
Martin Nekus. Nekus.
3:05:48
I mess his name up all the time. Who The Who the Carolina or
3:05:50
Hurricanes infamously traded for Miko Rotten and who they didn't
3:05:53
even keep. Cal Mccarr, I mean this team is
3:05:56
loaded and they have good goaltending this year.
3:05:59
Love them. I think they're winning the
3:06:01
Stanley Cup this year unless some crazy thing happens.
3:06:04
It'll be the first one for Preston's Trophy teams in in a
3:06:06
full season since Detroit. So my top three Colorado, Tampa,
3:06:12
Dallas, Carolina, Vegas, Love it.
3:06:18
Love it. Edmonton is not making a
3:06:20
Stanley. Cup that's that's too high for
3:06:22
any any of the Pacifics. I just, I don't trust Edmonton's
3:06:25
goaltending every year. They they're right there.
3:06:27
They do have the best player in the world and they have dry
3:06:29
sidles, one of the top players in the world.
3:06:32
I don't trust them. I just don't trust the
3:06:35
goaltending. Yeah, I don't know.
3:06:36
If they go three years in a row, that'd be crazy.
3:06:38
And Western Conference, it's a lot better this year.
3:06:41
I it's just interesting when you go back and forth and you, you
3:06:44
think about all these teams and what they're fighting for this
3:06:47
year. Colorado, this is the best
3:06:49
Colorado team in a very long time.
3:06:51
They're always a good team, but this, this is the best Colorado
3:06:54
team. And Makar is going to be
3:06:55
expecting a big time contract in the offseason.
3:06:58
He's going to get it. This team is loaded.
3:07:00
I mean, loaded from top to bottom.
3:07:04
Unbelievable. Joe Sakic is, is one of the
3:07:07
smartest hockey GM's in not only just in hockey, in professional
3:07:12
sports. I watched him play hockey.
3:07:14
I watched him play with the Quebec Nordiques.
3:07:16
And then when they moved him to Colorado, I watched him win the
3:07:18
Stanley Cup with Peter Forsberg and and all Claude Lemieux and
3:07:21
all those talented players. Adam Foot.
3:07:24
I remember Patrick Wah, remember that.
3:07:27
So yeah, Patrick Wah is no longer the honorable coach.
3:07:29
Thank you. Anyways, that is in Lake Flynn.
3:07:33
And now, ladies and gentlemen, another segment, Concrete
3:07:36
Jungle. Welcome to the jungle.
3:07:40
We got fun and games. You know where you are.
3:07:44
What did you do in the jungle, baby?
3:07:45
Welcome. I'm trying to put tiger bomb.
3:07:47
On this jungle's nuts to the concrete jungle carousel, you're
3:07:50
going to die. Anyone.
3:07:59
Let's get it going on the concrete jungle carousel, guys.
3:08:04
That means we're going. To be going.
3:08:05
All of the tri-state area's latest news and notes.
3:08:11
We get the Yankees and Mets notes to start off the carousel
3:08:14
tonight. I guess we'll start with the
3:08:16
good news. You got a big.
3:08:17
Torso. The good news is Garrett Cole is
3:08:19
making his rehab, the first rehab start right now he's got
3:08:23
on a AA Somerset. He's going to throw around 40
3:08:25
pitches. He had two springs training
3:08:28
starts, 1 inning and one and 2/3.
3:08:30
This is his first live game action since spring training.
3:08:33
On the other news, the Yankees and Max Freed got roughed up a
3:08:36
little bit today. Freed kind of lost it in the 6th
3:08:39
inning. They lost 11 to 4 to the Angels
3:08:43
in the end up splitting that series.
3:08:45
Not an inspiring series. They won their two games by one
3:08:48
run, but then they got blown out in the other two.
3:08:52
I I'll say this, they need coal to come back.
3:08:54
They need to start figuring out what's going on with that
3:08:56
bullpen. That bullpen's been horrible and
3:08:59
and they need some depth there. So they need to move some of
3:09:01
these starting pitchers, maybe a Warren, maybe Schmidt coming
3:09:05
back. They need to solidify their
3:09:07
bullpen. It's been a big problem so far
3:09:09
early this season. The starting pitchers will go 5
3:09:13
1/2 innings and then there's bullpen comes in and absolutely
3:09:15
gets bashed. That's the problem right now
3:09:17
with the Yankees, and they're not hitting.
3:09:19
Consistency is definitely a problem for this Yankee team.
3:09:22
Aaron Judge is hitting. Finally, Giancarlo stands
3:09:25
hitting, but everybody else is not.
3:09:27
Yeah, Aaron Judge, six home runs now.
3:09:29
He's definitely on the pace you definitely need to see.
3:09:31
More than six home runs doesn't. He I'm taking this stretch, I
3:09:34
think since the last time we did the concrete jungle carousel,
3:09:36
but I think the at bats are a lot better for him.
3:09:39
And obviously Ben Rice has still played very well this year.
3:09:41
But yeah, you need a lot more from that.
3:09:43
As far as Cole, yeah, it's good to see him progressing well.
3:09:45
He's the guy that's been durable throughout his career up until
3:09:48
this injury. So you wonder, it's interesting
3:09:50
when you guys have multiple Tommy Johns versus or multiple
3:09:53
bad arm injuries versus somebody who just said the one how he'll
3:09:55
come back. But I think he'll be good.
3:09:56
He doesn't have to rely on his philosophy.
3:09:58
Do they need to rush him back? Not necessarily, but I think
3:10:00
it's a. Good sign.
3:10:00
I think they need to rush him back.
3:10:02
I mean, they need to get this bullpen figured out and and.
3:10:05
Right, that's the bigger problem.
3:10:06
They need to move one of these guys in the bullpen, maybe
3:10:09
Weathers, because he's been a horrible starting pitcher.
3:10:11
So move him in the bullpen and let him.
3:10:13
Maybe he could fix up the middle of that pitching bullpen.
3:10:16
I mean, it's been horrible, horrible.
3:10:19
He's just not consistent enough to be a starter.
3:10:21
He has some of these. He had that one game where he
3:10:23
was lights out. They lost that game, but he
3:10:24
pitched 8 innings, struck out as like 7 or 8 or something,
3:10:27
something like that. He looked really good and then
3:10:30
he hasn't looked as good. That usually screams long
3:10:33
reliever, doesn't it? That screams the guy that you
3:10:35
wanna do have an opener if you don't have a fifth starter and
3:10:39
then you have him come in for the 3-4 innings.
3:10:41
Could be their closer. I think he could definitely be
3:10:43
their closer. Well, if not, you know, I always
3:10:47
remember 96 when Mariano was giving us 2 innings before
3:10:50
wetland. You know, A2 inning setup man is
3:10:52
pretty special. He might have the length in the
3:10:55
arm. If he's only throwing 2 innings,
3:10:56
he's probably dialing up to 100. No.
3:10:58
Yeah. So that that would be nice.
3:11:01
Let's talk about the Mets. They just lost their eighth
3:11:04
straight, got swept by the Dodgers.
3:11:07
Otani made him look foolish. Sodo supposed to come back for
3:11:10
the next home stand on I guess Monday, but since June 13th of
3:11:15
last year, the Mets have the 4th worst record in all of baseball
3:11:20
behind just the Twins, Nationals and Rockies.
3:11:23
So ahead of those teams. So the Mets are betting on Juan
3:11:25
Soto coming back, and that's going to fix everything.
3:11:27
That's going to clean up everything.
3:11:29
Come on, guys. The pitching's been putrid.
3:11:32
They're not getting any bullpen help.
3:11:34
They're to me, they're not getting hitting in this, in this
3:11:38
lineup that's supposed to be sacked.
3:11:39
They played for both. Bouchette.
3:11:41
Bouchette hasn't hit a lick. Jorge Polacco is hitting what,
3:11:45
180? I mean, nobody Lindor is hitting
3:11:48
in his one 6168. It's bad.
3:11:51
It's really, really bad if you're betting on one player
3:11:53
that you're paying 68,000,000 a year and you're not getting
3:11:56
anything from him. This screams David Sterns needs
3:12:00
to be fired. Fired.
3:12:03
I've said this already, It has nothing to do with management.
3:12:07
They're going to blame this on Mendoza.
3:12:09
It has everything to do with the guy leading the way, David
3:12:12
Sterns. Yeah, If you have a lineup
3:12:14
that's supposed to be top five on paper, even with guys playing
3:12:17
out of position, you're really supposed to have the offensive
3:12:19
production. Yeah, Alvarez is hitting, Louise
3:12:21
Roberts hitting, where is everyone else?
3:12:24
Like Simeon not hitting at all. We know Lindor starts slow.
3:12:27
I I think he'll be fine. But again, the mental blunder
3:12:30
may be getting to him and Bichette.
3:12:31
Oh my God is he a mess in every direction right now.
3:12:35
Pitching can only hold their own so much when they're bullpen
3:12:37
starting to get decimated as well.
3:12:38
David Peterson put him in the bullpen.
3:12:40
He's not pitching with all at all this year, but also has been
3:12:42
very up and down so far. Just a bad combination of
3:12:45
everything right now. We'll see.
3:12:47
It's early, but they were hot last year and then slumps and
3:12:50
maybe there's something going reverse.
3:12:52
Maybe they just do the somebody else needs to do the Jorge Lopez
3:12:55
effect to inspire them from 2024, who knows?
3:12:59
Or get some grimace. They need something to work
3:13:01
because they don't have anything, right?
3:13:02
I'm not doing any freaking tag team now.
3:13:05
Tag teams are not even going to save them right now.
3:13:08
Speedy, you still don't know what that quote that drop means.
3:13:12
I don't want to pull jobless. The Mets 8 game losing streak
3:13:16
for the Mets. I know.
3:13:18
How do you how do you break a streak like this when you have a
3:13:22
team that just can't get it right?
3:13:23
You got to find a win. You got to find a win.
3:13:26
Usually it happens with a team that's horrible, but I when you
3:13:31
8 down, it's just going to be difficult for you to just, you
3:13:34
know, find any type of momentum. So somehow you got to rally the
3:13:39
troops, you got to get into the locker room and basically
3:13:44
together and have a, you know what we call the coming to Jesus
3:13:49
meeting and basically you guys settle down.
3:13:52
Hey, we got to take the next game, go out, do what we need to
3:13:55
do and win the game. You know, as long as you do
3:13:57
that, once you get that first win, you're able to get some
3:14:00
momentum. But it's difficult because you
3:14:02
kind of lose the locker room. There's no true leadership,
3:14:05
especially with the Mets, you know, with salsa and Landora,
3:14:09
like having those soda and the door, like having those issues.
3:14:13
It's it's difficult because you got, you know, two of the guys
3:14:15
that supposed to be the main guys not seeing eye to eye, not
3:14:19
on the same page. And they're not being able to
3:14:21
have somebody to mediate that relationship to be able to bring
3:14:24
the whole team together. So it's going to be difficult
3:14:27
for them, but I still it's still early do do.
3:14:30
And so I got, I got faith that they're turning around.
3:14:33
They've had that leadership stench with free agents.
3:14:35
The team for a. While too they had the same
3:14:37
problem with Scherzer when they brought him in and Verlander and
3:14:39
a lot of the guys like that. Even Drobo.
3:14:41
Previous regime since Cohen's taken over and spent.
3:14:44
Money. It sucks they don't have good
3:14:45
clubhouse guys like Pete Alonzo or Brandon Nimmo.
3:14:48
I wonder why? They got rid of.
3:14:51
Interesting. Nothing to talk about with
3:14:53
basketball. We already covered the the
3:14:54
Knicks in the playoffs, so we're going to go straight to football
3:14:57
tonight. We'll talk to them about the
3:15:00
Nets when we get. Gone, baby, gone.
3:15:02
That's about it. When we get to the draft
3:15:03
lottery, we'll talk about the Nets.
3:15:06
But yeah, so let's talk about. We'll go with The Jets first.
3:15:09
This is a weird one, Errol. This doesn't inspire confidence
3:15:12
in your fearless leader Aaron Glenn.
3:15:15
They announced they cancelled their top 30 meeting with top 10
3:15:18
projected pick. I heard David Bailey.
3:15:20
Who? Is the guy that Aaron Glenn was
3:15:24
caught falling asleep during his workout in the NFL combine?
3:15:29
They did meet with Arvel Reese, but they met with a lot of guys
3:15:33
that are kind of projected to go to the back half of the first
3:15:36
early 2nd, kind of, you know, telegraphing that they're taking
3:15:40
Reese and they may want to trade back up, you know, at the end of
3:15:43
the second or they're just looking for mid tier guys.
3:15:46
There's no one else at the top of the draft they're looking at
3:15:49
and Arvel Reese. I I think they're right.
3:15:52
Arvel Reese is athletically gifted kid.
3:15:55
I think they can move him in many different ways.
3:15:57
I was talking to Q Offset, he says he's underweight.
3:16:00
Well, Mike, Micah Parsons, when he came into the league, he was
3:16:02
£250. He's he, they said he was
3:16:05
undersized. This guy's faster, bigger,
3:16:07
stronger than Michael Parsons. I like Arvel Reese.
3:16:10
I think he's going to do a lot of things for The Jets.
3:16:12
He's going to be a position player that you can move around
3:16:15
on the field. I like him.
3:16:17
It's not that I don't think they like David Bailey.
3:16:19
I just don't think he fits the scheme that they want to use.
3:16:22
And, and here's another thing about David Bailey, Just because
3:16:26
they didn't invite him and they didn't interview him again
3:16:28
doesn't mean that they're not interested in him.
3:16:30
Maybe they just have more information than people think
3:16:33
that they don't have. So it doesn't mean that they're
3:16:36
not interested in David, David Bailey.
3:16:38
I'm just saying that, but not surprised that overall Reese is
3:16:41
a guy that they want to interview more and more and more
3:16:43
because they like him the most and he's the number 2 player on
3:16:46
that board that everybody keeps saying he's going to go, so he's
3:16:49
going to The Jets. Yeah, I I guess if they sought
3:16:51
out any character issues, it probably would have happened
3:16:53
already. Obviously, maybe it wasn't Eric
3:16:55
Glenn that was doing it because he fell asleep, but some of the
3:16:57
other Jets scouts that were already saying we're not going
3:16:59
to take him. So maybe they'll just use it as
3:17:00
leverage as saying, all right, if they somebody else.
3:17:02
Wants everybody. Everybody's blowing that out of
3:17:04
proportion. Yeah, I I never thought The Jets
3:17:06
were taking him anyway. I think it was more of they use
3:17:09
that as a point of where we know we're not going to do it now.
3:17:12
So if you want them, go get them type thing.
3:17:15
Otherwise, we'll take Reese or it could be you leverage to use
3:17:17
if a team badly wants Reese to say, all right, we're definitely
3:17:20
taking him, give us your best offer.
3:17:22
So either way, I think it's a even though it's funny that it
3:17:24
is the guy Eric Glenn fell asleep on, I actually think it's
3:17:26
a tactical move. Yeah, I think like Earl said
3:17:31
earlier, I agree with him on that.
3:17:32
I think it was a bad fit. I'm not so that he isn't.
3:17:38
They're not interested in him. But I do think that are more
3:17:41
interested in April Reese. But I thought about this earlier
3:17:44
and obviously The Jets need to replace Sauce and Quentin
3:17:48
Williams position holes in the defense.
3:17:50
What if they took down at 2 and took Sunny at 16?
3:17:56
He's not going. To be there, I'd be shocked.
3:18:00
Look, we'll talk about Sunny on Monday, but I don't think he's
3:18:04
going to make it out of the top 7.
3:18:07
Like Sonny might be going super high.
3:18:08
His numbers were even better than Reese's at the combine.
3:18:11
Yeah, but I. Was crazy I I I don't look at
3:18:13
the combine is why I think that Sonny is going to be better than
3:18:17
Reese. I just think Sonny I think Sonny
3:18:19
is a leader and that's what a lot of people look at it our Val
3:18:22
Reese he's a beast he's an athletically gifted kid that
3:18:26
could be so explosive in the NANFL that he can turn out to be
3:18:31
the best not even the best pass rusher in this class.
3:18:33
One of the best in the last five years.
3:18:35
That's what they're betting on. That's what quoting on as good
3:18:38
as Sonny is, I'm not saying Sonny's bad.
3:18:40
You can pay with Sonny, especially in that 425 scheme,
3:18:43
like you can play with Sonny and kind of get not able to reach
3:18:46
production from an edge standpoint, but at least half of
3:18:49
that and be able to put him in some packages for him to be
3:18:52
successful. I think that'll be you know, I
3:18:55
don't like you said this. I don't know if he I don't think
3:18:57
he'd be there neither, but it was just wishful thinking
3:19:00
because again, if you get that, you know, solidified corner and
3:19:04
you kind of feel that in between go either edge or interior, the
3:19:07
alignment. I think you kind of fix in that
3:19:11
issue that you have as far as at least a pass rusher and get to
3:19:15
get home with a quarterback, especially if you got a lot down
3:19:18
corner out there, you going to have to force the quarterback to
3:19:22
use one side of the field. So it was just it was just the
3:19:25
take that I wanted to get you guys respectable.
3:19:28
But yeah, I agree, Ava Reese is probably the guy and that's
3:19:31
probably why they counseled the meeting.
3:19:33
Yeah, just quickly on him. He he just looks like he looks
3:19:37
the part. He can play 3 different
3:19:39
positions for you and he's going to be good at all.
3:19:42
Michael Parsons, that's. What we remind you, it's like,
3:19:44
it's it's the Michael Parsons role, it's that joker role.
3:19:47
He can play inside A, A he can play over a gap, B gap, C gap, D
3:19:51
gap. He can play anywhere for you.
3:19:53
He might not be a true linebacker the same way Sonny
3:19:56
Styles is and do some of the things that a true linebacker
3:19:58
would do for you, which is more valuable in today's NFL?
3:20:01
It's the pass rusher. So that's why he's going to go
3:20:04
higher. I don't think he's better than
3:20:05
Micah Parson. We don't know what he's going to
3:20:07
be, but I think his gifts, his athletic ability is right there
3:20:11
with Micah. I'm telling you right now, it
3:20:14
just depends. It'll never happen, but sitting
3:20:19
with that 16th pick, you know that's around the ballpark if
3:20:23
you needed a nose tackle. The other team in New York seems
3:20:26
to be getting rid of 1 Dexter. Dexter Lawrence definitely wants
3:20:31
out of the Giants, According to CBS Sports's Jonathan Jones says
3:20:36
he was feeling disrespected that he was still making 22 and a
3:20:40
half million, 12 amongst the tackles today and the Giants
3:20:44
weren't even thinking about renegotiating.
3:20:48
We're talking, of course, you know who does the negotiating
3:20:50
for the Giants. The name is Joey.
3:20:52
Bag of doughnuts. Joey contracts Joey.
3:20:55
Moron Free agents Joey. Idiot.
3:20:57
Joey Asking Joey. Joey Shay, Shay Shay, it ain't.
3:21:02
So yes, he's going to screw up another star player, Dexter
3:21:07
Lawrence. I think the big question about
3:21:09
this is, do the Giants have leverage because Lawrence is
3:21:14
under contract for two years with no guaranteed money?
3:21:17
They should be able to say we're not trading you.
3:21:20
You play for us, you sit out. I I'll tell you this, they're
3:21:24
not getting a first round draft pick for him.
3:21:26
They can get a second they. Can't trade him right, You can't
3:21:28
do. That I think they'll get a
3:21:30
second for him and maybe a fourth, a second and a fourth
3:21:33
for like, like let's say what The Jets got for Sam Darnold.
3:21:37
I could see that, but they're not getting a first round talent
3:21:40
for him. And and, and a lot of reasons
3:21:42
why is Dexter Lawrence didn't have a great year last year,
3:21:44
wasn't healthy, but Dexter Lawrence is still an elite
3:21:48
player out of his position. And being that the Giants do not
3:21:51
know how to control personalities and they don't
3:21:53
have to control him. He doesn't like them.
3:21:56
He doesn't like the organization.
3:21:57
He wants to say sayonara to whatever you want to call him,
3:22:03
Joey bag, Joey idiot, Joey moron Joey everything just complete
3:22:07
morons over there. And he will lose his job after
3:22:10
this season because this is they're going to fall flat on
3:22:13
their face after this. Yeah, they're stuck.
3:22:15
Like there's no easy path. Like do you trade him for just
3:22:17
the two and the four and hope you couldn't get more out of
3:22:20
this? Or do you gamble that he stays
3:22:21
healthy and then put up puts up the 2022 24 numbers again and
3:22:26
then you get him for higher value at the trade deadline
3:22:28
because the Giants probably won't be a good team in a tough
3:22:30
division anyway? Or we were talking about it last
3:22:32
week with the Bills, like being very interested.
3:22:34
I've heard Chicago has been interested in him after they
3:22:36
failed at Max Crosby. Like, there's going to be teams
3:22:38
that are going to want to try at this draft.
3:22:39
And that's the dilemma the Giants are in.
3:22:41
Either way, they're going to be very stuck.
3:22:44
Yeah. I think that that, yeah, I think
3:22:46
it's going to be something that happened during the season.
3:22:50
I don't know how, you know, they find anybody of any type of
3:22:54
value or any type of value packet that they could put
3:22:57
together that ioffer him. I think it's a relationship.
3:23:02
The issue is if John Harper had been there more than one year,
3:23:07
then I can see it kind of coming back together and they just had
3:23:10
like a little, you know, fight or whatnot.
3:23:12
But being that this is John Harper first year, he's not
3:23:15
going to be really, you know, high on tolerating guys who
3:23:19
don't want to be there, especially when he's trying to
3:23:21
build a team and build a culture.
3:23:23
I know you guys got some issues with the front office guys, but
3:23:26
for the most part I would say that he he probably is going to
3:23:29
have to thug it out and produce like Speedy said and be ready to
3:23:33
get traded during the trade that oh.
3:23:35
No, nobody's saying the ownership is off the hook
3:23:37
either. One guy's an idiot, the other
3:23:38
guy's doing disgusting things. Be careful be only look out for
3:23:43
Minnesota. They might throw something
3:23:44
together with Brian floors over there.
3:23:46
Yeah, with Brian floors over there, that might be, you know,
3:23:49
he's that might be something that might be they need to be
3:23:52
Taco so. I'll take I'll take Justin
3:23:55
Jefferson back for him. That's good luck on.
3:23:56
That I'm good with it. Good luck on that.
3:24:00
Good luck. On that trade them burns.
3:24:01
They're not trading him for less than a first if they can't get
3:24:04
it first. They're not getting a first for
3:24:06
him. They'll wait to trade.
3:24:07
They're not getting a first for him.
3:24:09
Mine I guarantee. They're not getting a first.
3:24:13
Boeing for less than a first and something.
3:24:16
I, I remember, I'll remember you said that because you said you
3:24:20
said that about I, I, I think you said that about Panarin.
3:24:24
You said that they were going to get a top six player and you
3:24:27
thought they were going to get a top, top player.
3:24:29
I'm pretty sure that was you that.
3:24:31
Was either him or one of our guests.
3:24:32
No, it was definitely. Him about what?
3:24:34
About what? That you said that the Rangers
3:24:37
were going to get a top six player on another roster.
3:24:40
It was you and I remember you. So you said they were going to
3:24:44
get like a like a good pick and then they didn't get it.
3:24:46
You're right, they didn't. They got an oak, they got like.
3:24:48
They're not getting, they're not getting what you think they're
3:24:50
going to get for Dexter Lawrence so.
3:24:52
So here's my question, though. When you have a guy like this
3:24:56
who's really good and his problem is the way that
3:25:00
management has treated him and you have a new head coach, why
3:25:03
don't you just fire Joe Shane and get rid of the problem?
3:25:08
And then the new guy gives him a contract and say it ain't going
3:25:11
to be like it used to go Harbaugh.
3:25:13
Go ask John Mara, because that guy is to me.
3:25:18
What are we doing dumbest One of the dumbest owners over the last
3:25:22
10 years. Everybody keeps talking about
3:25:23
Woody Johnson. This guy deserves to be attacked
3:25:28
by all the fans he's done. He makes Woody Johnson look like
3:25:34
a genius right now, so. I wouldn't go that.
3:25:37
Far he does. He does.
3:25:39
It's just stupid. Stupid one, stupid 2.
3:25:41
Dude, you, you, you sit there and you tell, you tell your GM
3:25:47
not right on television, on Hard Knocks, not to trade him or let
3:25:52
him go to a team in the division.
3:25:54
He said that and then he let Saquan Barkley go to the Eagles.
3:25:59
You're going to sit here and tell me he doesn't look like an
3:26:01
idiot. He looks like a a moron.
3:26:03
A moron? So please, a moron.
3:26:07
Your John Mayer looks like a moron.
3:26:10
Fire Shane, you'll get to keep him and get more value even if
3:26:15
you don't want to keep him. Like get rid of this guy.
3:26:17
All brakes, all gas, no brake. Why don't you use that?
3:26:21
I'm taking receipts. I'm taking receipts.
3:26:24
There's still a head coach employed that does that.
3:26:27
I'm the Titans. I'm taking receipts.
3:26:29
I'm Robert Bambi Salim. Another team that's imploding a
3:26:34
little bit in shocking fashion. We're just going to skip ahead
3:26:37
because there's nothing to talk about the Rangers, Islanders and
3:26:40
Devils right now whatsoever. We're going to go play golf.
3:26:44
The Bill, Western New York, the Bills.
3:26:46
The Bills are going to trade Keon Coleman.
3:26:48
We've already talked about it. They won't get much more than a
3:26:51
fifth round. Pick stop with this.
3:26:52
No matter what the fact what what, Brady said.
3:26:55
Oh, I love Keon Coleman. Yeah, they don't love.
3:26:57
Yeah, and I'm sure he believes in the Easter Bunny, too.
3:27:01
The, the interesting thing when in queue, I think you're going
3:27:04
to have a real strong feeling about this.
3:27:06
They're going to move Greg Rousseau to outside linebacker
3:27:09
and take his hand off the ground.
3:27:12
I, I, I don't get it. And that because of that, you
3:27:17
know, they'll, they might bring back AJ Epinessa who's, you
3:27:20
know, OK. But I think the Bills are going
3:27:24
the wrong way for us. I don't.
3:27:26
They still have Josh Allen, they still have a weapon and DJ
3:27:30
Moore. I think they're going to be
3:27:31
explosive offensively. They have, they have two really
3:27:34
good tight ends, I I and they have a great running back.
3:27:37
They're offensively sound. They have a great a great
3:27:40
offensive tackle who can't stand The Jets.
3:27:43
But this is this is a good offensive team.
3:27:46
They're going to put up points. Their defense will be OK.
3:27:48
They'll be they'll be elite in the AFC, the AFC.
3:27:51
There's nothing to brag about besides probably the only team
3:27:54
that I would worry about this year is the Broncos and maybe
3:27:57
Kansas City. All the other teams, there's a
3:27:59
lot of what ifs or maybes. San Diego, too, I liked I, I, I
3:28:04
mean LA, I like the LA Chargers too.
3:28:06
I think those are the three only teams that I would worry about
3:28:09
in the AFC this year. So I don't think they have
3:28:11
anything to worry about. I'm with you, Fish.
3:28:13
I kind of think it's odd for a guy that's a 64, like 275 guy to
3:28:17
try to be a stand up linebacker. I think there was a big reason
3:28:20
he wasn't a top ten pick like a lot of people.
3:28:22
Doesn't work. They'll move them back.
3:28:25
And not hard. Yeah, that's where I think is
3:28:27
interesting when it comes to the Bills team needs.
3:28:29
We talk about defensive tackle being one of them, maybe inside
3:28:32
linebacker because obviously you don't know what Milano what's
3:28:34
going to happen. They've had a lot of other guys
3:28:36
that are injury prone as a what do you.
3:28:37
Believe everything you guys read.
3:28:39
Honestly, do you know? Yeah, but why would they?
3:28:41
Why would they post that? Like, why would they make that
3:28:44
out if it was, if it was an uncertain issue and why would
3:28:47
you make that type of announcement?
3:28:48
Here's the thing. There are a lot of stupid
3:28:50
organizations that would do stupid things.
3:28:53
I mean, you believe they're going to.
3:28:54
Yeah. How about the Mets coming out
3:28:56
and saying we're going to get Kyle Tucker, we're getting him,
3:28:59
we're getting him, we're getting him.
3:29:00
And then they lose him and what do they do?
3:29:02
They trend back and they bring in Boba Shet, who's never played
3:29:05
third base in his whole career. Makes no sense, but that's what
3:29:08
happens. That's a great.
3:29:10
Comparison. That's a great comparison.
3:29:12
It is like playing a guy out of position, like when the Yankees
3:29:14
went into the season last year without a third baseman.
3:29:18
That's what you're doing. Oh, I'll just take my DN.
3:29:20
I'll play a minute, oh, linebacker.
3:29:21
And then I'll move him back if it doesn't work.
3:29:23
And but then I don't have a solution at outside linebacker.
3:29:25
Right. And I never done.
3:29:27
I think they have enough with outside linebacker.
3:29:29
I just think he's the wrong body type for an outside linebacker.
3:29:32
Yeah, he's he needed to be put his hand in dirt and then go
3:29:34
chase the cornerback. I just think, I just think the
3:29:38
organization is saying things because they're unsure what
3:29:41
they're going to do in the draft.
3:29:42
They have players. They're hoping that the players
3:29:45
fall to them. If they don't, they'll move
3:29:46
Russo right where they think and it might not work.
3:29:49
After one or two games, they'll move them right back.
3:29:52
It's not going. To kill them.
3:29:53
I'm sure it ain't going to work after one or two games.
3:29:55
It's the hardest transition ever to go from playing your hand in
3:29:58
the dirt to playing a stand up outside linebacker.
3:30:01
And then you guess what? He's going to get judged based
3:30:03
off of getting sacks and tackle Pelosi with his hand in the dirt
3:30:08
that he did. Like that's that's the issue.
3:30:10
It's like you just don't. You get judged based on what you
3:30:13
used to do and not what you're currently doing.
3:30:15
Or you'll have to bulk up and play 34 N, which will be hard
3:30:17
for him. And it's going.
3:30:18
To limit him to do that. You want my cream pie?
3:30:22
The last thing you want to do is bulk up at this point.
3:30:26
Yeah, I mean, I, I just think Bean, you know, is a GM that's
3:30:30
on the hot seat. You know, he's been there a long
3:30:32
time. They've they've have a really
3:30:34
good offense. This is Josh Allen's prime.
3:30:37
They can't. Figure out he'll be the new
3:30:38
Giants GM next year. Yeah, they.
3:30:42
Go, Shane. Just send them somewhere away
3:30:45
from the state of New York, Western New York, All parts of
3:30:48
New York, yeah. They need to go.
3:30:50
Away in Jersey. Get out of Jersey too, please.
3:30:53
Don't worry, his son will be the Giants GM in 20 years.
3:30:56
Carl plays with himself. I can't wait from 20 years from
3:30:59
now when Rick Johnson is destroying The Jets.
3:31:01
Anyway, the Sabres, the real story, the only team that's
3:31:06
really doing it right now. Sabres won the Atlantic Division
3:31:10
with 109. Points 3.
3:31:11
Points ahead of the Lightning and Canadians.
3:31:14
They faced the Bruins in the first round of the playoffs.
3:31:17
Alex Lyon is day-to-day with the lower body injury, but it seems
3:31:20
like they dodged the bullet when Tucks lower body injury wasn't
3:31:24
problem. He's going to be good to go.
3:31:26
Carrick, who they got from the Rangers at the deadline is not
3:31:28
going to play. He had, I don't think he got
3:31:31
hurt at fighting Andrews Lee the other day.
3:31:34
So that's the story for the Sabres.
3:31:36
Where'd you have them on your your ranking?
3:31:39
And in Lake Flint 7 you said? They're I think 7 or 6.
3:31:42
I think it was 7 or 6. I like Buffalo and and they
3:31:45
could beat Boston. Boston's been there before.
3:31:47
They're a hard team. They're a team that knows how to
3:31:50
win and they find ways to win. They always have good
3:31:53
goaltending. They have a great swimming, is a
3:31:55
great goaltender. They're they're going to have
3:31:57
good defense and they could put the puck in the net.
3:31:59
I like Buffalo as long as Tage Thompson is healthy and this
3:32:03
team could play at a high level. Dalene is a great defensive
3:32:06
player. They have some good young studs
3:32:08
on this roster that are starting to develop into SARS.
3:32:11
I like Buffalo. I think Buffalo wins the series
3:32:14
in six games. This is an interesting one
3:32:16
because Boston's offensive depth is a lot better than it was last
3:32:19
year. You saw a lot of veteran guys
3:32:20
like Victor Arveston, Middlesat who was did very well with
3:32:22
Colorado last year. Morgan Geeky's been one of the
3:32:25
most underrated goal scorers the last two years, so they cannot
3:32:29
take it lightly. I guess.
3:32:30
This veteran team, like you said, are a lot of experience.
3:32:32
The Bruins had that bad year like the Rangers did last year
3:32:34
where they were one of the heavy favorites and then disappointed,
3:32:36
but they're bouncing back nicely.
3:32:38
Buffalo, it's interesting. Fish Lekinen is their main
3:32:40
goalie. They got 2 goalies that are hurt
3:32:42
right now. So if he struggles, he hope he
3:32:44
doesn't get rattled. That's the only thing that could
3:32:45
hurt him. But I think besides that, yeah,
3:32:47
the Buffalo is definitely a well-rounded identity.
3:32:49
That being said, I do think the Bruins are going to make this a
3:32:51
very interesting. Series they will, but they're
3:32:52
not winning. And if Boston, if Boston wins
3:32:55
and they beat Buffalo, I think they can go all the way to the
3:32:58
finals if they beat Buffalo. I I would have, it's funny when
3:33:02
you're doing your rankings before I if they played
3:33:03
Carolina, I think they would have beaten Carolina.
3:33:05
So do I, yeah, I think that's. All all right, Well, I mean, we
3:33:10
got the carousel. The carousel keeps spinning next
3:33:13
time. All right.
3:33:15
The final segment of the night. Dial it up.
3:33:19
We interrupt this regularly scheduled.
3:33:21
Hot mix to bring an important news.
3:33:22
We got a big. Broadcast to do here.
3:33:25
We're about to dial it up. All right, we are back once
3:33:34
again with another episode of Dial It Up Lightning Sports
3:33:39
Rounds. Errol hasn't heard it.
3:33:41
He's going to dial up a take and then we're going to comment back
3:33:44
and forth. Let's start with something that
3:33:47
was real wild in the playing game.
3:33:49
Coach Spo says Lamello ball should have been ejected.
3:33:55
If you take a look at the pictures on there, if you're
3:33:57
watching in video or if not, you can obviously see it in a
3:34:00
million highlights that we watched over and over again the
3:34:02
other day. He grabs his leg and trips him
3:34:06
and injuries him. And then there's some video that
3:34:08
came out from a couple years ago that he tripped and hurt Bam in
3:34:12
2024. Lamella Ball was not kicked out
3:34:15
of the game and he had the game-winning layup with no Bam
3:34:18
to stop him in the paint in overtime.
3:34:21
They go on to the next round, the playing game.
3:34:24
He gets fined 35K but no suspension.
3:34:29
What do you think? It doesn't help Miami.
3:34:32
They're eliminated. Bam out of bio, gets pulled out
3:34:34
of the game. I think he's absolutely right.
3:34:36
But this is the same thing that happened to the New York Knicks
3:34:39
against the 76ers. This happens in sports.
3:34:44
You got to be up there and you got to be playing.
3:34:47
You got to play hard, play with Hurts.
3:34:49
Basketball players are the easiest ones to get hurt.
3:34:51
They're big men. They're ankles, they're calves.
3:34:53
They're everything. Something hurts.
3:34:55
Lamelo Ball smiles. He laughs, He gets away with it.
3:34:58
He sleeps with all these porno stars.
3:34:59
His father's Lavar Ball, his brother's Lonzo, and all this
3:35:02
other. One of them is a rapper.
3:35:03
One's doing something out in Japan or whatever the hell
3:35:06
they're doing. I don't know what the Ball
3:35:07
family's doing. What I do know is Charlotte's
3:35:10
moving on and Miami's Nots bolsters.
3:35:12
Not wrong. There should have been more done
3:35:14
to the mellow ball. But what are you?
3:35:16
How is that going to hurt? How does that help Miami?
3:35:18
It doesn't help Miami. Miami's eliminated because they
3:35:21
lost their best player in the mix of everything.
3:35:23
Yeah, I guess it's more of a justification thing.
3:35:25
They're trying to do it from years ago, like you said, Fishy
3:35:27
did the same thing in 2024, I think during the regular season.
3:35:29
So they're trying to get how does that help them?
3:35:31
I I know they're just trying to get justice I guess for maybe.
3:35:34
Justice is. The Hornets that should have
3:35:37
their best players suspended for the next playing game.
3:35:39
They're trying to make a case, I guess Pat Riley try to make a
3:35:41
case to Saint. Pat Riley that was throwing
3:35:43
Jimmy Butler under the bus at the end of his.
3:35:45
Tenure, the Pat Riley, the Saint.
3:35:46
Pat Riley that made the mean St. New York Knicks in the 90s.
3:35:50
They were beating the hell out of everybody.
3:35:52
Anthony Mason, Xavier McDaniel, Michael Jordan.
3:35:55
Remember that? John Starks?
3:35:57
Come on. I know, but why is Pat Riley
3:35:59
bitching him? You're right.
3:36:00
It's a different game. That's why I tell you all the
3:36:02
time why you keep bringing up Michael Jordan and Steph Curry
3:36:05
and SGA. There's no such thing.
3:36:08
Not from, not from a stats wise. Hold the hand, baby.
3:36:11
Hold the hand, baby. Hold the hand.
3:36:15
Talk to the hands. Yeah.
3:36:17
But listen, I don't think that. I think, you know, what we got
3:36:20
to understand is refs missed calls all the time.
3:36:22
You know, I, I'm one of the famous things is when Kevin
3:36:25
Durant ran out of bounds to do the ball back in when he was
3:36:28
never going to state like things happen all the time that refs
3:36:31
just missed. I think the refs missed this
3:36:33
one. It's OK.
3:36:34
They all have a, yeah, they all have a, they all have a meeting
3:36:39
and then they, they get judged based on whether or not they get
3:36:43
fined or whatnot. And usually they don't get
3:36:45
fined, but, you know, they, it was just a human error.
3:36:47
I think sometimes it's a natural reaction.
3:36:50
You're down looking on the floor.
3:36:52
You don't realize that you're on the floor, but you're reaching
3:36:54
for the ball, but you end up. Oh, yeah, that's oh, oh, look,
3:36:57
that's his leg. Maybe I should grab it.
3:37:00
Oh, that's the. No, no, I try to fight.
3:37:02
You don't. In your mind, you psyched out.
3:37:04
It's the playoff. Where?
3:37:07
The hell do you think we're from right here?
3:37:09
How do you not know what a basketball is and a leg is?
3:37:12
Please. No, it's not that you don't
3:37:14
know. Is this you psyched?
3:37:15
Out. Oh I'm sorry, he psyched out and
3:37:17
he saw somebody'd leg and he just yanked on it.
3:37:19
Oh it's Bam out of bio psych out.
3:37:26
What a shocker. The Ball family, you know, just
3:37:29
not above board, you know, with their morals as they grew up.
3:37:32
Shocker how that happened. Yeah, you all.
3:37:35
Never saw that one coming. Maybe they should send one of
3:37:37
their nice sneakers to Bam out of bio.
3:37:39
He'll throw it out. Did anyone ever get the big ball
3:37:42
or brand shoes or was? That just a couple thousand
3:37:44
people did get a couple thousand overpriced them, and that was
3:37:46
the problem. They overpriced it.
3:37:48
All they overpriced them they wouldn't do, they ripped.
3:37:51
Like stuff on Marbury sneakers I sold.
3:37:53
For a dollar, the Starbury. The Starbury.
3:37:56
Strawberry sold is Shaq sold like those are those are real
3:37:59
real time big heel shoes, man. They got Nike and Adidas, but
3:38:03
they really they do. They do numbers.
3:38:05
All right, let's get to the next story.
3:38:06
Let's go to baseball. This one's wild.
3:38:09
So I don't know if you saw this, but Red Sox center fielder or
3:38:12
outfield, I don't know, he's playing center, but outfielder
3:38:15
Jaron Duran flipped off a Twins fan during the game and he gets
3:38:21
talked about it afterwards. Somebody just told me to kill
3:38:24
myself. I'm used to it at this point.
3:38:26
You know, I mean, S happens. I mean, I'm going to flip
3:38:29
somebody off if they say something to me, but it is what
3:38:31
it is. I shouldn't react like that.
3:38:33
But that's the kind of stuff is still kind of triggering.
3:38:36
It's my fault for talking about my mental health.
3:38:38
I talked about last year because I kind of brought it in.
3:38:41
It brought in the haters. So I've just got to get used to
3:38:44
it. I was just trying to hold it in
3:38:46
and not really bring that up to the team.
3:38:48
I mean, we're trying to win a game.
3:38:49
I shouldn't even bring that up to anybody.
3:38:51
It just happens. If you remember he had a Netflix
3:38:56
series. There was a some Netflix Series
3:38:58
A couple years ago talking about how he was suicidal a few years
3:39:01
ago. He was suspended IN22 games in
3:39:04
2024 for man making an anti-gay slur at a fan, presumably for
3:39:10
something they said at him. Errol.
3:39:13
Dial it up, first of all. Well, who was he sticking his
3:39:16
fingers up at it? Was it a twin fan?
3:39:18
Yes. OK, yes.
3:39:19
Here's what I'm going to say about Boston Red Sox fans and I
3:39:24
I go back and forth with Jeff all the time everybody knows
3:39:28
that the Boston fans are cruel, disgusting and disrespectful
3:39:32
they lay racial slurs. They attack people, they do
3:39:36
things. They say that about Yankee fans.
3:39:37
Boston fans are not nice. So because Duran goes, Duran
3:39:43
goes over there and he's got somebody that doesn't like him,
3:39:46
doesn't appreciate what he said in the past or says he's
3:39:49
suicidal, he gives him a finger. That's OK Boston fans have been
3:39:52
doing it forever. Cry me a river.
3:39:54
Act like a professional. Act like a professional.
3:39:58
Nobody likes what the Yankee fans do.
3:40:00
The Yankee fans have done so many derogatory things, and
3:40:03
Boston fans have a lot to say about Yankee fans.
3:40:05
Let's go back and see what CC Sabathia has said about him,
3:40:09
about them. Oh, I don't know.
3:40:12
MM Mussina said about Boston fans.
3:40:15
Jason Giambi said about Boston fans.
3:40:18
Please cry me a river that the Twin fans were upsetting you
3:40:23
because you were hurt by what they were saying to you.
3:40:26
Please. Look, I completely agree with
3:40:30
you on that one, Errol. You cannot go after the fans,
3:40:32
especially when you have worse fans.
3:40:34
And we know the worse the Boston fans are, maybe not worse than
3:40:38
the Eagles fans, but it's close. You know, the Philly in Boston,
3:40:42
it's close now. When I was younger, I may have
3:40:45
used to hit the sauce a little bit, a lot of bit when I was
3:40:48
younger. Not anymore.
3:40:49
Those days are long gone. Not for anything.
3:40:50
I had to stop. I just don't.
3:40:52
I used to go to to Rangers games in the Garden.
3:40:55
I used to flask it up. This is a true story.
3:40:58
The fireball and then the fireball would like get stuck on
3:41:00
the flask and you have to throw the flask out.
3:41:02
Never put fireball on a flask, by the way.
3:41:04
But they had the Flyers. I always end up going to Rangers
3:41:08
Flyers games my whole life. I end up at the Rangers Flyers
3:41:11
games and I hate the Flyers because they're a Philly team.
3:41:13
Their goalie used to be a guy named Steve Mason, and I would
3:41:16
always wait. Columbus, too.
3:41:19
Yep, I would always wait till it got real quiet in the garden and
3:41:22
then I would scream at the top of my lungs.
3:41:25
Pretty wasted. Mason has a Sandy AV word and
3:41:30
everyone left and it was funny and I and no one was trying to
3:41:35
say we're going to kill. Anybody.
3:41:36
No. One's trying to get upset at
3:41:40
anything about it. It was just good-natured fun.
3:41:44
Now, I probably shouldn't have been doing that, but at the same
3:41:46
time, why are you being so negative at a game?
3:41:50
It's. A fish is not a panty dropper.
3:41:52
Get over it. Stop betting on stuff if that's
3:41:55
going to make you angry. Just just stop.
3:41:58
Like that's not how you should be at a game.
3:41:59
It's ridiculous. But you know, Duran's wrong.
3:42:01
But the fan's more wrong. Fish.
3:42:03
Don't worry, he's on Emmanuel, Class A or Luis Ortiz.
3:42:05
He won't be betting. Listen, I believe in bringing
3:42:09
heckling back. I think we've got to solve.
3:42:12
I think it's an advantage to the whole team to be able to have
3:42:16
your fans. The most?
3:42:17
Derogatory things ever to be able to get an edge and get into
3:42:21
his health and look, he made everybody aware of his mental
3:42:24
health issues. He made everybody aware of what
3:42:27
he's going on. So that's just ammo for fans to
3:42:29
use and if it's going to get you to be flipping me the bird and
3:42:32
losing the game, then let me do it.
3:42:33
And then I'm. Going to use it.
3:42:38
Okay, let's go to the next story on this one.
3:42:41
It's going to be a hockey story and this is the end of the
3:42:44
season. This is I love this still for
3:42:46
now, the head coach of the Blue Jackets Rick bonus been in the
3:42:50
game forever. Well, he had quite an epic rant
3:42:56
at the end of the season. They, you know, they did.
3:42:59
They got eliminated from the playoffs and then no showed that
3:43:02
game against the Capitals. We talked about earlier with
3:43:04
Ovechkin's last game, but it's not going to be his last game
3:43:07
for his career. Well, if you look at the body of
3:43:10
work that happened here over the last 37 games, I'm sorry, that's
3:43:15
the coach. Where's the coach's thing?
3:43:16
Rick's everyone saying Rick speaks to his heart.
3:43:20
I have the wrong thing up here. I'll get the you know what, I'll
3:43:22
get the video up, but I'll just talk about it.
3:43:24
He went completely after his team.
3:43:27
He said they had no heart, that they don't care, that the
3:43:30
players, you know, they don't, they don't want to win.
3:43:33
Basically everything you would say if you're trying to get
3:43:36
fired. But will he?
3:43:38
Because the culture over there is certainly toxic and they were
3:43:43
mediocre trying for an eighth seed at best all year anyway.
3:43:48
They collapse at the end of the season.
3:43:50
My question to you, Errol, is this a coach who's a little old
3:43:54
who lost the team, or is this a team that needs to be broken up?
3:43:59
Slick Rick bonus here's what I'll say he's absolutely right.
3:44:05
The team didn't show up to the game didn't look like they
3:44:08
wanted to step on the ice. They didn't want to play.
3:44:10
They look like they were not even excited to try to win that
3:44:15
game. The fact here is the blue
3:44:17
jackers, Blue Jackets were one of the hottest teams in two
3:44:20
weeks after the old after I'm sorry, the Olympic break.
3:44:23
They were playing good hockey and they were actually following
3:44:26
Rick bonus. All of a sudden everything
3:44:28
started to tear right down. It was like bricks were falling
3:44:31
down from the wall and Rick bonus had every right and by the
3:44:34
way he was crying. He was upset.
3:44:37
It wasn't like he went out there and just attacked these guys.
3:44:40
He cried. It hurt him.
3:44:41
It hurt him. Then he trained these guys.
3:44:43
He worked these guys out. He made these guys play hard all
3:44:46
season long and then all of a sudden in the final game of the
3:44:48
season just show up play for me, and I think he has every right
3:44:52
to be upset about what happened. I I think Rick bonus should keep
3:44:55
his job. He showed that he cares and he
3:44:58
wants to continue with this team and and see what this team could
3:45:01
be next. Year.
3:45:01
Yeah, this is like a. Successful company.
3:45:03
Before you go, I just want to give you the quotes.
3:45:05
I got the quotes up. If I'm back, we're changing this
3:45:09
freaking culture. I've dealt with this before.
3:45:11
If we're back, we'll straighten it out.
3:45:13
These guys, they don't care. Losing is not important enough
3:45:16
to them. It doesn't bother them.
3:45:18
How can you go out and play like that?
3:45:21
Three hits, 23 giveaways, It's terrible and inexcusable if
3:45:27
they're not embarrassed by not only tonight, but that they're
3:45:30
on the wrong team. Some of those guys are so lucky.
3:45:34
The season's over and there's no practice tomorrow.
3:45:38
Yeah, he's a good coach and he was a spark initially, like
3:45:40
Errol saying. Slick Rick, baby Slick.
3:45:42
Rick, for everywhere he's gone so far, he Dallas, he went to
3:45:45
the Cup with Dallas in the COVID shortened year.
3:45:47
Now it took a while to get a head coaching job again.
3:45:49
I think Phoenix fired him or something like that and he was
3:45:51
coaching with Ottawa, but before that when they were an
3:45:53
expansion. One of the nicest people I've
3:45:55
ever met at the NHL draft. Such a nice.
3:45:57
Guy so yeah it took a while for him to get a head coaching job
3:46:00
again but got it got Dallas then won a not a present show people
3:46:03
was a very good team at Winnipeg created a contender over there.
3:46:06
Then they got rid of him out of nowhere and yeah so I think he's
3:46:09
gotten kind of mistreated by certain organizations now this
3:46:12
you're right fish. This is an organization that's
3:46:13
been stuck in kind of mediocrity.
3:46:14
Now they're never terrible but they're never great.
3:46:17
Iron Warren is a man and that's where I think you look at the
3:46:20
maybe the young team of a core that might have to have some
3:46:22
moving pieces because they have a lot of young players all at
3:46:25
once. They made the playoffs last year
3:46:26
with the emotion which with Goodreau.
3:46:28
But it's not a team that was sustainable.
3:46:30
I I agree that they should keep bonus as a coach.
3:46:32
They're not going to get a better coach out there right now
3:46:34
that's going to want to come there.
3:46:36
Actually Speedy, they gave him a two year extension which is
3:46:40
which is pretty impressive. I don't know the last time a
3:46:43
coach ripped his team that hard and was then he.
3:46:45
Didn't RIP him, he cried. He was upset.
3:46:48
He. Was crying.
3:46:49
I mean, he was and you know what he should have been, but that's
3:46:53
that's like a team that just that's like, no.
3:46:55
They gave up. They gave up.
3:46:58
I don't know if I've ever coached a team that was like
3:47:01
that. Q Have you ever been on a team
3:47:02
that just like gave up like that?
3:47:05
No, I wouldn't color God. Right.
3:47:08
How would you even handle that? Yeah.
3:47:10
I would don't lie. You were on those JET teams.
3:47:12
They gave up. What are you talking about?
3:47:16
No, we lost game, but we didn't give up.
3:47:17
You can't. What year dude?
3:47:20
I can't even name them I. Can't say the game.
3:47:22
Look, you can say we even with the bug fumble, we we didn't
3:47:27
give up. Hey, just played.
3:47:28
Think of it this way. Q also played for the 2015
3:47:30
Dolphins that had an interim coach named Dan Campbell.
3:47:32
You had to bring up the butt formula.
3:47:34
You had to bring that up. Thank you.
3:47:37
Thank you. But no, no, you just can't.
3:47:39
You can't tolerate, I mean, especially with, you know,
3:47:42
professionals. I don't, I don't really
3:47:43
understand that you only got a job to do.
3:47:44
So at the end of the day, it's like, hey, why not just do your
3:47:48
job? You only got to, you know, be
3:47:49
bothered with anything else. But, you know, it starts with
3:47:52
the top, you know what I mean? So the head coach got to, you
3:47:54
know, find a way to get these guys to buy in.
3:47:57
And sometimes that means get rid of them because I said I'd be
3:48:04
like, yeah, go ahead and go and buy your business.
3:48:06
I, I mean, I wouldn't, I've had to throw kids off of teams
3:48:10
before. It does happen.
3:48:11
You know what I mean? Like they just, you know, have
3:48:14
to, it just has to happen. Sometimes you pass, you pass a
3:48:17
line, you can't let it ruin the rest of the product.
3:48:20
You can't have your authority taking over.
3:48:22
I'll let you. I think that was happening.
3:48:24
Right. Oh, well, he's he'll be back.
3:48:27
I'm curious to see all the movement there.
3:48:29
There's some guys that could be moved that might be interesting
3:48:31
this offseason. All right, let's take a look.
3:48:33
Errol. Errol, this is special for you.
3:48:37
This is a sneaker head one, Caitlin.

3:48:51
Caitlin Clark's latest Player Edition sneakers, the Nike Kobe
3:48:54

3:50:00
Errol, I know you have feelings about this, so I'm just going to
3:50:04
say it straight up to you. Dial it.
3:50:07
Up. I'm loving it.
3:50:09
I love Caitlin Clark. I love what she stands for.
3:50:11
She's selling shoes, sneakers, whatever.
3:50:14
She's making the WBNBAWNBA back on tour.
3:50:19
I mean, think about it. She is selling.
3:50:21
She's selling sneakers faster than NBA players are selling
3:50:25
sneakers. It says a lot about who she is,
3:50:27
what she stands for, and what she is all about for the WNBAI.
3:50:31
Don't want to hear about Reese, Angel Reese.
3:50:33
Her ugly Reebok shoes. I care about Nike.
3:50:36
Nike's the biggest sale. Nike's the one we're going with.
3:50:40
And guess who's running Nike? Caitlin friggin Clark.
3:50:44
Eat it, eat it, eat it. Stick it, stick it, stick it.
3:50:48
Caitlin, Caitlin. Caitlin.
3:50:50
That's all I'm going to say. Caitlin Clark, the biggest
3:50:53
superstar right now in the WNBA, She is what everybody wishes to
3:50:57
be. Caitlin Clark wishes to be.
3:51:01
Drop it like it's hot. Drop it like it's hot.
3:51:04
Drop it like it's hot. She's a talented individual.
3:51:07
I won't say she's hard. Oh, oh, better than.
3:51:10
I see what you see when you see that.
3:51:11
Better than Reese. Better than Reese.
3:51:15
She's the Steph Curry. Steph.
3:51:17
Curry of the WNBA baby. Her shoe looks like a prototype
3:51:22
go wrong and they just threw some paint on it, some red and
3:51:26
silver paint on it, just like hey, this is your signature
3:51:29
shoe. Terrible Angel Reese got swag
3:51:31
swag style custom. It looks some looks the part I'm
3:51:37
just telling you she's not. Oh man, that's what she looks
3:51:40
like too. She looks like you bet actually,
3:51:42
and I think about it. That's why you liking her.
3:51:46
I mean, look at that. She's she's got.
3:51:49
Nothing. She's got, she's got the
3:51:52
athletic frame. This is what I'm going to say,
3:51:58
you know. She got get a frame all right
3:52:02
if. Caitlin's on baby.
3:52:03
She's looking really, really good in the offseason.
3:52:06
She got back in that, that international tournament that's
3:52:11
going to go to. Caitlin for Three World.
3:52:13
Championships. She dominated it.
3:52:16
I've got a feeling she's going to take the basketball, women's
3:52:18
basketball. I got 1 Caitlyn for. 4. 100.
3:52:23
I think she'll be overrated. I think she'll get a lot of hype
3:52:26
again this year, but she won't. It won't at all.
3:52:30
She won't win nothing. It'll just be Nike machine
3:52:34
pushing her, pushing her and her shoe the whole season.
3:52:37
Oh, just need it, Angel Reese couldn't sell a pair.
3:52:40
She's like that Angel Reese. Yeah, I like the Angel.
3:52:42
Wilson's they just dropped shut out the Angel.
3:52:44
And I'm 400 bucks fell out right away.
3:52:49
Shout out to Asia Wilson getting becoming the first WNBA Max
3:52:53
player. By the way as well getting that.
3:52:55
Caitlin. Clark, Max Contract.
3:52:56
Caitlin Clark brought that. To.
3:52:59
Caitlin Clark brought that to the league.
3:53:04
Now queue, you're tripping if you think that Angel Reese is
3:53:07
bringing that do. You see what the ticket prices
3:53:09
were when she got traded to Atlanta.
3:53:11
Yeah, and that's why he moves the needle.
3:53:13
They're gonna realize. They're gonna realize that those
3:53:15
two first round draft picks are worth more than cheap.
3:53:17
You don't score enough points, but in regards to what's did she
3:53:21
moved and needed for the dead. Point Why don't you call her?
3:53:23
Why don't you call her? Why don't you reach out to her?
3:53:26
I think she's doing more I'm, you know, power to her doing all
3:53:29
the things and. This makes my pecker.
3:53:30
Work on her shot a little bit, you know, be better at
3:53:33
basketball. You gotta have the.
3:53:36
Booting. Maybe we will, maybe we will.
3:53:37
It should be an exciting WNBC serial dealer starting in a
3:53:41
month. Errol Angel Russo never make
3:53:43
Javas Packer hard. That's Sophie Cunningham's
3:53:45
departments. I gave up.
3:53:46
Everybody ever made Java? All right, what do we got next?
3:53:49
Come on. Last one, we're going to get
3:53:52
into it. This one I normally don't do,
3:53:54
but here is Capitol Hill, this is Congress.
3:53:57
And here's the question, can Congress save sports fans from
3:54:02
the streamers? We talk about this all the time.
3:54:05
There is a bill in Congress and act being talked about that both
3:54:09
parties, both Republicans and Democrats are are agreeing on
3:54:13
right now. We're going to try to end all of
3:54:17
the regional blackouts because of the streamers, NBL, MBA,
3:54:21
MLBTV and NBA League Pass will not be able to black games out.
3:54:25
If you live in the state where the game is, just because you're
3:54:28
not in the local area, you have to be able to watch that game.
3:54:32
So you don't have to pay for Netflix, you don't have to pay
3:54:34
for Amazon or Peacock or all the other things.
3:54:37
This is going on right now, Errol, if you were on Capitol
3:54:42
Hill. How would you vote?
3:54:47
I vote for yes. Why not?
3:54:49
Free games, watching all the games for free, Who wouldn't
3:54:52
like it? But guess what?
3:54:54
It's never going to happen. Never.
3:54:57
Why not? They're debating it now.
3:54:59
They could debate it all they want.
3:55:00
It's never going to happen. They're going to find a way to
3:55:02
argue. Well, who's making this and
3:55:04
who's making? How about we're politicians.
3:55:06
We're going to make some money on it.
3:55:08
We're going to do something. We're going to pull something
3:55:09
out of our ass and we're going to make a buck out of it.
3:55:12
That's what politicians do. I'm guaranteeing you right now
3:55:15
it's never going to happen because the politicians are
3:55:17
going to have their hands deep into the money of the equity of
3:55:22
these sports. It's never going to happen.
3:55:24
I wish it does, but it's never going to.
3:55:26
Happen. Yeah, I agree.
3:55:27
But why are they even debating this?
3:55:29
Why is this a bill on the on in the Congress at all?
3:55:32
Like why is it even on the table?
3:55:33
That's what I'm trying. To do all right, so I teach
3:55:35
social studies and here's why they want to get reelected and
3:55:39
this is a super popular right track with all fans and all
3:55:42
voters, right? If you can get them free stuff
3:55:45
and not have to pay for the streamers to get it, what are
3:55:48
they going to be like? The drop?
3:55:52
Hit. Me with the drop barrel, what
3:55:55
are the fans going to be like? Not petering your agenda.
3:56:00
Oh. Boy, look, Andrew Marshan of The
3:56:02
Athletic was reporting on this all right, and that the leagues
3:56:07
that might be impacted in my football, baseball, Speedy's own
3:56:10
league, I guess football, baseball, basketball, hockey,
3:56:13
WNBA, soccer and women's soccer. I.
3:56:16
Would have one of the league. Jobless.
3:56:18
Panties. It needs to happen.
3:56:20
It needs to happen. It's fraud that the man is
3:56:24
perpetrating. The corpies are perpetrating on
3:56:26
all of us. Give us our money back.
3:56:29
Let us watch sports. For free, alright.
3:56:33
No, but you forced the game. That's local, right?
3:56:36
Well, you have to watch on Amazon Prime or this one would
3:56:40
say you don't. Himself, right?
3:56:42
Which is good for everybody. All right, all right, I'm done
3:56:46
with this. Why are we arguing?
3:56:47
Shut the music off. All right, I'm done with this.
3:56:49
It's never going to happen, ladies and gentlemen.
3:56:51
I wish it does, but you know, politicians, they always have
3:56:54
their hands not only in their pants, but in everybody else's
3:56:57
pocket. And if they do have it in their
3:56:59
pants, I'm hoping that they know what ball is going to roll from
3:57:02
one side to the other because they do actually rotate.
3:57:05
I don't know if there's do, but it does rotate.
3:57:08
Anyways, that's it for our show, sweetie.
3:57:09
Who do we have on next? Week, all right.
3:57:10
