• 1:55
  Speaker 3: Sports Done Right podcast, affectionately known as a Sports Cup Minnesota,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: coming to you from the Situation Room here at the
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: Sports Governor Mansion. All right, let's just get right into it.
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: First off, shout out to our main sponsor, Seventh Avenue Pizza,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: the best frozen pizza out there. All about the ingredients
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: the Nelson family. Not only do they make great ice cream,
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: great jerky, the best frozen pizza. Make sure you get
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: you some, as I like to say, Seventh Avenue Pizza.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: All right, folks, I'm a little late on the Quasy news.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Vikings fire their general manager. Somebody had to take the
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: hit for this. JJ McCarthy and all this stuff, YadA, YadA, YadA.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: To be fair, a lot of Quazies draft picks just
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: haven't been hitting. That's the other thing too, that's kind
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: of getting not discussed a lot here in terms of
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: that because it's all getting lost in the quarterback news
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: with JJ and whatnot. So I'm not going to talk
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: too much about it just because I'm a little late
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: on that. You've already heard a bunch of different opinions.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: But my opinion, would I've made that call. Probably not.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: I probably would have given another year. But I can
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: kind of understand, kind of get it well. Like I said,
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: you know a lot of his picks and from the
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: draft just have not been hitting. And you know, I've
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: been talking with a lot of people. I was on
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: a couple shows outside of the state, and you know,
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: one of the things I think that maybe the Vikings
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: got enamored with too, was, you know, JJ McCarthy winning
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: that championship at Michigan. I think there was something about
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: drafting a quote unquote national championship winning quarterback. You know,
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: it just has that ring to it. You can put
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: it out there blah blah blah. But you know, if
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: you go back and look, you know, Michigan relied a
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: lot on that running game, Blake Quorum. They had some
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: good receivers, but they didn't ask JJ in college, you know,
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: Harold didn't ask him to do a whole lot. You know,
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: he had some nice passes. Obviously they won a national championship,
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: but yeah, I just don't know, and obviously he has
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: not been able to stay healthy enough to be on
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: the field to get a real good evaluation of his talent.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: And all of a sudden vikings in Trouble because you know,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: you got this huge, absolutely huge quarterback question hanging over
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: the franchise. Now got to bring in a new GM.
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: And by the way, the quarterback that comes in alongside JJ,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: he has to be ready to play. He has to
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: be ready to push JJ because and I think they've
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: kind of alluded to it. You know, it can be
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: an open job, and you know, best quarterback wins.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: To be fair to JJ, he has you know, he's
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: looked good at times. He's had some nice throws at times,
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: of course, but as bad as this has all been, somehow,
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: you know, Justin Jefferson still got a thousand yards. Can
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: you imagine if JJ was decent this year. I mean,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson may have went for two thousand yards. I mean,
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: as crazy as that that shit sounds, but man, I yeah,
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: So the vikings all of a sudden kind of I
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: don't want to say in the world of trouble, but yeah,
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: some major decisions that they have to hit on here upcoming.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Good luck, good luck. All right, we're gonna keep it
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: moving here and I again, this is Evins Right on
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: the Sports Done Right podcasts. You can find the podcast
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: on all major streaming platforms, and I want to thank you.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: We've been doing this for over ten years now. I
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: want to give a shout out to Troy Geary, will Stein,
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: the Gary Stein and Oh what is it? I had
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: it written down here their show and some other podcast
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: friends of mine. They are big time. No they're down
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: in Super Bowl and it just reminded me because they
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: invited me down when I was in Phoenix and was
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: able to go down to Radio Row and you know,
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: kind of meet the legends, get the pictures, all that stuff. Yeah,
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: Gary Stein and Stevens Show. Sorry about that. Make sure
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: you check out their podcasts as well. But just wanted
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: to give those homies some a quick shout out because
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: they took care of me. And if you ever get
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: the chance, if you're in the podcast or in the
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: media and you can go to Radio Row, you gotta
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: do it once in a lifetime experience, man. All Right.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: With that being said, Sports Governor was also live at
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: the Minnesota Golden Gopher game last night. Men's hoops. Boy,
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: it was good for a long time. They got it
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: up to about what a fifth teen to sixteen point
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: lead midway through the second half. Oh, it was like
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: the Gophers finally gonna do it. But then here comes
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: Michigan State and they just start hoisting threes. But in
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: the end, Minnesota holds on gets the win over the
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: tenth ranked Michigan State Spartans seventy six to seventy three.
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: Jalen Crocker Johnson, the big forward number five, led the
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: way with twenty two points. Here's the thing, the Gophers
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: starters did all the scoring, no bench scoring whatsoever. Zero
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: points from the bench. And I'll speak on that in
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: a minute. But you know, nice games from Isaaca Ossama.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: Bobby Durkin had thirteen points, Kay Tyson had seventeen. But man,
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: what I like about this Gopher team the first off,
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: just the ball movement is a lot better than it
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: has been the past couple of years under Ben Johnson.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: They just flow. I love the way that they just
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: they don't stop moving, or at least last night when
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: I was there, offense always in motion. And you know,
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: I'm going to talk here part of the show a
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: little bit later on in kind of the state of
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: the NBA and big men in general, you know, because
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: people just love the hoystuff, these threes. But man, I
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: have to Gophers could develop somebody in that low post.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: They could They might be able to dominate a little bit,
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: could be Jalen Crocker Johnson. But irregardless, a real good
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: effort last night. The Gophers just played hard and as
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Michigan State started mounting their comeback because they just went
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: three crazy and they were hitting them and it's Michigan State,
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: it's you know, tom Izzo's you know, he just knows
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: how to coach. He's a legend Hall of Famer, and
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: here comes Michigan State all the sudden. Man, it was
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: just like, you cannot be making this up. Now that's
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: down to three. I mean we were just up like fifteen, sixteen,
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: seventeen points. But fortunately Minnesota holds on. They get that win,
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: kids get the storm to court, all that fun stuff.
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: But just they much need to win because look, legal
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: Medved has done a I think he's done a really
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: good job. Even though the Gophers are still they're just
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: only eleven and twelve. They really should have a few
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: more victories. But they have just been on the wrong
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: side of some losses here recently where they've done everything
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: but win the game, let's say. And it was just
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: really good to see that the effort paid off. Yeah,
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: it almost came back to haunt him again last night,
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: but they got the win at home and can start
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: building hopefully on this win over Sparty real quick. Here
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: on the Michigan State side, you know, Izzo just he
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: knows how to coach his team big Vard Corn Carr
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: had sixteen points, Jeremy Fears had ten, and Jordan Scott
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: fifteen points and Trey Fort had twelve as well for
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: the Michigan State. And you know, Michigan State's a good team.
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: You know, we were talking in the first half, me
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: and my son and friend that were at the game.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: We were talking, Hey, this could be a Final Four
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: type of team for Tom Izzo. They are. They're just solid.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: They seem to just know where to be good rebounds
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: on defense. And you know, the one thing that really
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: kind of hurt again with the Gophers got to get
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: better on the free throws. You know, as this game
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: was getting close towards the end of the game, Gophers
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: a lot of you know, one and ones on the
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: free throw line. That's gonna come back to haunt them
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: at the wrong time. They got away with it last
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: night because if they hit those free throws, you know,
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: they probably win by at least six points, six seven points.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: So hey, folks, I'm just gonna tell you, glad we
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: got to win eleven and twelve Michigan State's nineteen and four,
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: and we'll see what happens from here. You know, let's
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: just try and keep building this thing. And you know,
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: if the Gophers can land in any type of postseason tournament,
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: we'll see if that happens. But things are going the
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: right way under coach Medved and I feel very very
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: confident in our program people. With that being said, huge
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: win for the Ladies tonight women basketball team ninety one
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: eighty five over the number ten rank Iowa Hawk Guys.
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: Gotta like that. Go for programs taking out top ten programs,
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: gotta like it. But yeah, it kind of a replay
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: from last night. However, the Ladies went up big as
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: well and Iowa in the last quarter. Remember they played quarters,
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: so in the fourth quarter Iowa had a big one
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: thirty to nineteen over the Gophers, almost came back, but Gophers,
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: you know, hit some free throws held them off. Ninety
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: one eighty five. Big games here from Tory McKinney. Big
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: Grace had twenty one points as well. Mara Bron had
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: sixteen and Gophers ladies get that win a Maya battle
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: shout out to hershey got twelve, and really like what
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: Coachi Don has going over here. Gophers are seventeen and six,
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: Iowa eighteen and five, and maybe these golden Gopher ladies
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: need to be ranked here after this week, So congrats
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: to them. Keep it up. Very impressed by the lady
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: Gophers and what they're doing over there on campus. And
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: like I said, Coach Don, she is really putting together
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: some really good basketball teams and the Gophers good hire
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: by her. Somebody did their homework and they are definitely
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: doing it there. So congratulations to the ladies and again
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: Sports Done Right podcast. So we're gonna keep it moving.
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: We're gonna move right on over to the Minnesota Wild,
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: third ranked team points wise in all of the NHL
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: as we now hit the Olympic Break, Minnesota Wild with
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: seventy eight points only trailing Colorado and the West and
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: Tampa Bay over in the East and excuse me, and
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: excuse me. Carolina also has seventy eight points, so maybe
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: sitting for it. But hey, man, Minnesota Wild, they're teasing
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: you again, aren't they. They're teasing us again. Everybody's like, Oh,
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: we're gonna go on that Stanley Cup run, and you
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: just might this year. Just might. That's what it's gonna take,
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: because it's really time. It's been a long time, obviously
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: since Minnesota Wild made a deep run, and everything that
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: Garrett is doing over there seems to be paying off.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: The trades are working out, you know, obviously the one
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: wins are coming. They were to hit a little bit
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: of a rough stretch a couple weeks ago, but have
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: definitely rebounded. Carill seems to be back on pace now.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: So Minnesota Wild doing the do as they like I said,
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: head into the Olympic break there, So props to Minnesota.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: By the way, the official record thirty four, fourteen and.
• 14:49
  Speaker 5: Ten.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: Let's see seventy eight points. Colorado has eighty three, Dallas
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: right behind him at seventy seven points and then drop
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: off and the rest of the Central Division there and
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: over in the Pacific Division, Las Vegas, who's on top
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: of that division only has sixty six points as well.
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: So it gives you a good idea of what's happening
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: with the Minnesota whild so far this season. So keep
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: it up. We'll see what happens after the break when
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: everybody gets back from the Olympics. And also with Carell
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: not playing in the Olympics this year, I think that
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: kind of helps him. Let your star warst just decompress. Chill.
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: Should be good, should be good. All right, NBA, and
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: I wanted to take some time here's you know, I've
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: been okay, so I'm in my mid fifties. You know,
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: I grew up you know, the NBA Golden era, eighties, nineties,
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: all that stuff early two thousands, back when centers were
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: centers playing in the low post and people were driving
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: to the hoop and all that fun stuff. But now
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: it's a different game. And I came across the YouTube
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: video and I bear with me here as I'm trying
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: to pull it up. NBA Legends explained why the current
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: NBA is dead. It's from a guy called mister Sports.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: The video on YouTube has over six hundred thousand views,
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: and the guy's channel, you know, he's got mad followers
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: all that stuff, and I'm just gonna tell you it
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: was a very interesting video because me and a lot
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: of my friends and a lot of my younger friends
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: have kind of started talking about this Today's NBA over
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: the past couple of decades, just load management, nothing but
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: three pointers. Nobody like I said, the sinners no longer
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: like a shack playing down in that low post. Centers
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: are out there above the three point lines. And you know,
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: a couple notes here that I made real quick, and
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: I actually recorded some audio here that I'll share with
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: you as well on this on the Sports Done Right podcast.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: NBA forty percent declined the viewership over the past fifty
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: few years. Let's see regular season games average one point
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: five to three million viewers last season on ABC, ESPN,
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: and TNT. That was the lowest sense of the pandemic.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: And what is going on? I mean, you hear people
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: complain about all the time, load management, people just hoisting
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: up threes, the product's becoming a little bit unwatchable at times,
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: all that stuff, and I, you know, I tend to agree.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: You know, I don't want to just sound like the
• 17:40
  Speaker 3: old guy sitting on this porch, you know, back in mind, Dan,
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, you know, when you have centers
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: out here. And we were actually talking about it last
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: night at the Gopher game, cause you know, the big
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: guys down there in college you know, they don't play
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: in the low post. And I was saying, you know,
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: if there was a low post center in college basketball nowadays,
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: probably dominate A because he's playing in the low post. B.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: The opposing sinners don't know how to defend in the
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: low post anymore. They probably just be you know, in
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: a sense quote unquote hackashacking. And it is just amazing
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: to watch. You know, seven foot dudes just literally run
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: out to the three point line. Nobody drives to the
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: hoops anymore. And yeah, it's very interesting because it's not
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: fun to watch. And I you know, NBA's got issues
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: in terms of viewership this and that. Now they're you know,
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: they put the product over what four or five different
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: streaming apps, so now you got to kind of go
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: find games and if you're not signed up here, you
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: know how it goes. But anyway, let's start with Magic Johnson.
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: This is a very very interesting take here, and again
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: this came from the video from mister Sports on the
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: NBA and why it kind of sucks right now.
• 19:11
  Speaker 6: Scene and five time champion Magic Johnson believes the league
• 19:15
  Speaker 6: lost something real when rivalries died. Back then, he and
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: Larry Bird weren't friends during the season, and that hate
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: drove them to greatness. Fans felt it. When the Lakers
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: and Celtics met. The whole country watched because every play
• 19:29
  Speaker 6: carried emotional weight.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: What's happened to the rivalries?
• 19:33
  Speaker 7: That's today's game, Like I meant each other, that's they
• 19:37
  Speaker 7: don't like.
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: See I hated Larry and every Celtic I really don't
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: like you.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: But now I love it because.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: That's what it was, right, the Celtics Lakers hate each
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: other and disliked each other, so it made for great
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: TV and people tune it in.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: And now with I don't know if it's AAU, I
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: don't know what it is.
• 20:03
  Speaker 8: Now, everybody's shaking each other's hand, Everybody like each other, won't.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: Go at each other like really hard.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: Even that's what happened to the All Star Game.
• 20:14
  Speaker 7: See yeah, see the All Star went to the All
• 20:16
  Speaker 7: Star Game right then?
• 20:18
  Speaker 8: See we hated the East right, I'm coming to I'm
• 20:22
  Speaker 8: coming to bust you, right, Michael Isaiah, doctor Jay, you
• 20:28
  Speaker 8: can't have one over me.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: See, I'm coming to get that now.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: See this is.
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: Hundred to two hundreds.
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: What is that.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: Exactly? Man, It's it's it's crazy. It is just crazy. No,
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: I'm looking at some of the comments on that video
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: here too. It's a somebody wrote it's a three point
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: contest that gets interrupted with free throws and ads. Yeah, yeah,
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: it's it's very interesting, you know, because it's just not
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: for me as fun of a product to watch, as
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: entertaining as a product to watch anymore. You know, I
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: was down a few weeks ago watching the te Wolves
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: and you know, just same thing, man, you know, just
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: go Bear out there, Rudy out there at the three
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: point line hoisting stuff. It's just like, come on, man,
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: you're seven over seven feet tall, go to the hoop.
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: But then he goes to the hoop and kind of
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: like a deer on ice sometimes. But here's some other
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: sound from Paul Pierce and Kevin Gartinett.
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: Maybe it's not entirely their fault, but legends like Kevin
• 21:42
  Speaker 6: Garnett and Paul Pierce don't field players today are doing
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: enough to stay healthy and play eighty two games and we.
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: Don't think that the NBA today's NBA player, they do
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: play at a fast rate, but I.
• 21:54
  Speaker 8: Don't think they're in a tip top shape.
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: I don't think these players today, I think they think
• 21:58
  Speaker 5: they're in shape until they talk to mother folks. That's
• 22:01
  Speaker 5: in shap, you know what I'm saying, Like, I don't
• 22:03
  Speaker 5: think the league is in the type of shape that
• 22:05
  Speaker 5: you need to be in the type of shape to
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: play at this pace.
• 22:08
  Speaker 8: I think they think that. And if anybody knows the body,
• 22:12
  Speaker 8: your calves are your breaks. Some of the trains were
• 22:15
  Speaker 8: talking about the lack of calf raises for some of
• 22:18
  Speaker 8: the players to end their workout.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: Bro.
• 22:20
  Speaker 8: We used to end a workout, especially on a leg day,
• 22:23
  Speaker 8: calf raises. This is this is how I'm speaking up,
• 22:25
  Speaker 8: This how I'm stopping.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: This is my whole wiggle.
• 22:28
  Speaker 8: If your calves ain't here, edel Topper, Whenever I go
• 22:31
  Speaker 8: to finish, I gotta be athletic enough to finish right.
• 22:34
  Speaker 7: Like this is what tickets talk about, that they out
• 22:35
  Speaker 7: of shape. We practiced every day. We went up and
• 22:38
  Speaker 7: down every day like a game, like a game. So
• 22:41
  Speaker 7: we five on five pretty much the Hall season with
• 22:43
  Speaker 7: drills with drills, and so now they come in and they're.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: Doing a lot of individual work with a trainer. You know.
• 22:48
  Speaker 7: So a lot of our shit was game speed.
• 22:53
  Speaker 3: There you go, game speed practice, playing most of the
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: eighty two games, all that fun stuff. So yeah, you know,
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: just one of those things, man. And like I said,
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: you know, me and a few of my friends have
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: kind of been discussing the state of the NBA, the
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: quality of the NBA product today, So it's not going
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: back to what I grew up with, and I do
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: understand that. I just would like to see, you know what,
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: some of these big men really just take advantage of
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: some low post play instead. You know, why take the
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: game thirty feet out there and start hoisting shots when
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: you can go down low and get in within five
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: feet and try and do some damage. That's all the
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: Sports gov is saying, all right. So with that being said,
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: speaking of NBA, our Timberwolves did not land the Greek Freak,
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: and I'm glad that they didn't because as I sat
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: on social media, as I had sent some posts out there,
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: it's just I don't know, man, I loved Giannis as
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: a player, a little bit of a knee, but you
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: gotta have that ego when you're on his level. But
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: I just didn't think what the Timberwolves were looking to
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: give up Julius Randall, possibly Devincenzo other pieces really warranted
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: bringing in the Greek freak because as great as he
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: is when he's healthy and on the court, that hasn't
• 24:19
  Speaker 3: been the case lately either with him. He's been injury prone.
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: He's got a bit of a calf issue right now,
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: speaking on what the Kevin Gard and Paul Pierce were
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: just speaking on there as well. So yeah, you know,
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: it's just I'm glad it didn't work out, and the
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: Timberwolves just got to work on, you know, getting a
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: deeper bench and you know, being able to go eight
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: to nine deep sometimes. Ao Desumu from the Bulls coming
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: our way. Nice little pick up there for the Timberwolves.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: CBS Sports actually gives the Timberwolves a B plus. I'll
• 24:54
  Speaker 3: just read what they rode here and let me give
• 24:56
  Speaker 3: proper due to the if I could speak tonight the
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: author of this article, Jack Maloney, and again the cbssports
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: dot Com and blah blah blah, let's see Timberwolves Wolves
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: backcourt concerns became obvious on opening night when Conley, who
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: had been their steady starting point guard for the last
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: two seasons plus, came off the bench and only played
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: twelve minutes. Now thirty eight years old, Conley was a
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: shell of himself when he did get on the court.
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: Conon Lee's declined opened up opportunities for the likes of
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: Bones Highland, Terren Shannon Junior and Jalen Clark and the
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: aforementioned Dillingham Chris Finch gave them all a shot the
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: first half of the season. Only Highland has come even
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: close to running with the opportunity, and even at his
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: best as a streaky offensive player. So that's why they went.
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: Did that trade there, and we'll just see what happens.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: It's real tight right now. Again, the West is always tight.
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: Minnesota Timberwolves five and five in their last ten games,
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: again playing down to some bad teams, playing down to
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: bad competition at times. And right now they are, I
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: believe in what seventh in the West? Let me double
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: check that real quick. They are excuse me, fifth right
• 26:26
  Speaker 3: now at thirty two and twenty. Okay, see on top
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: at forty and twelve. San Antonio behind them at number two.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: Denvers number three, Rockets are four, Wolves five, Lakers six.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: They are half a game behind or behind the Wolves,
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: and the Suns are seventh. So there you go. And
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: by the way, Greek Freak may be available in the
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: offseason as well, so you know that can still happen.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: We'll see what happens, see how his health hold up
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: here the rest of the year. He did say he
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: wants to be in Milwaukee. He did say he just
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: wants them to I think he just wants them to
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: put more of an effort into bringing back some winning
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: basketball out there as well. You know, it makes sense.
• 27:14
  Speaker 3: But no Greek Freak in Minneapolis at least right now.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: So with that being said, I'm going to get on
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: out of here. Got the motivated waiting. I am Vince Right,
• 27:29
