  Speaker 4: Obviously, we're spending a lot of time talking about the
• 0:22
  Speaker 4: Nuggets and the Avs winning last night.
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: They do want to get back to that.
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: I do want to talk about the draft last night
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: because I had one, at least very interesting aspect to it.
• 0:32
  Speaker 4: So we'll get to all of it. Let's take one
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: quick call here to start, though. We'll get to Jeremy,
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: who's been waiting patiently.
• 0:39
  Speaker 5: Hi Jeremy, Hey, how's it going, guys, Thank you for
• 0:42
  Speaker 5: taking it.
• 0:43
  Speaker 6: It's doing good.
• 0:44
  Speaker 5: Thank you for taking the call. I mean, I just
• 0:47
  Speaker 5: don't even know where to start with this team after
• 0:50
  Speaker 5: seeing that last night. You know, Vic said it best
• 0:53
  Speaker 5: when I heard the interview that practice, I was a
• 0:56
  Speaker 5: year are going to lose that game, and sure enough
• 0:58
  Speaker 5: they lost it. Not only that, we know what Jada
• 1:01
  Speaker 5: McDaniels was.
• 1:01
  Speaker 6: Really trying to say, but this.
• 1:03
  Speaker 5: Team has played like this all season and you know,
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: as someone who's been a fan for years, I mean
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: since Malone's first season. It's just one of those where
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: what happened to the culture, what happened to the pride?
• 1:15
  Speaker 5: Like I remember, like you guys would be down three
• 1:17
  Speaker 5: to one and to come right back, and they just
• 1:20
  Speaker 5: don't show that anymore. I'm not gonna say they got
• 1:23
  Speaker 5: comfortable after the championship. It's just one of those. It's
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: co worker basketball now, it's not teammates, it's co workers.
• 1:29
  Speaker 5: And I was watching the game last night, I think
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: it was second quarter. Christian was shooting free throws and
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: the Cameron pans and Jamal on the bench, and I'll
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: never forget he just looked like he was staring into
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: a bit like Wow, we really started this game like this,
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: And I'm right there. I was like, yeah, this game's over.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Yep, yep.
• 1:47
  Speaker 7: Jeremy appreciate it.
• 1:48
  Speaker 8: I appreciate the call. And you know you said it
• 1:52
  Speaker 8: championship hangover. I just think it's a lot of that.
• 1:57
  Speaker 8: I just don't think there's the same hunger. I don't,
• 2:00
  Speaker 8: do you see it?
• 2:01
  Speaker 7: No, mm hmm.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: And again, what's really disappointing like we went in the season,
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: it's it's on paper, the most talented roster the Nuggets
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: have ever had, and this and that, and then you
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: get a game like that and it's just like at
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: at the end of the day, you need to have
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: response when you are being challenged.
• 2:20
  Speaker 7: They were challenged and they took it.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Can go ahead? Yeah, yeah, we had some life therapy.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: We got Rob.
• 2:26
  Speaker 7: That's up next, go ahead Rob.
• 2:28
  Speaker 9: Okay. Yeah, it's a bad day. You know. I watched there.
• 2:33
  Speaker 10: I turned on the Rockies game on the on the radio.
• 2:36
  Speaker 10: I'm sorry to bring it up, but they're up eight
• 2:39
  Speaker 10: to five.
• 2:39
  Speaker 9: Top of the night.
• 2:40
  Speaker 10: Bod Nick's on the mound.
• 2:42
  Speaker 9: Just fu Someboddy and the blows up.
• 2:45
  Speaker 10: Okay, so there you not good? Now we'll go watch
• 2:47
  Speaker 10: and certing about rebound. Well they're not. They're not even close.
• 2:52
  Speaker 10: And all I really have to say about it is, yeah,
• 2:54
  Speaker 10: they they didn't have the intensity they they should. They
• 2:58
  Speaker 10: should have come back and taken on McDaniels his comments
• 3:03
  Speaker 10: with with fire. But they couldn't make a shot. They
• 3:06
  Speaker 10: couldn't make a shot, and and Jamal couldn't make a shot.
• 3:09
  Speaker 10: Worst of all was in the second game. Jamal was
• 3:13
  Speaker 10: because they made shots.
• 3:15
  Speaker 9: But you know, without.
• 3:16
  Speaker 10: Making shots, the incentives, you know, their their their motivation,
• 3:21
  Speaker 10: you know, sometimes it beats off.
• 3:22
  Speaker 9: That and they didn't get it.
• 3:23
  Speaker 10: Yeah, they gotta they gonna shoot better.
• 3:25
  Speaker 9: This real simple stuff. But they gotta shoot a lot.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, can I can I chime in on this.
• 3:30
  Speaker 8: Here's the difference between this year's team and what I
• 3:32
  Speaker 8: saw in the championship season.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: There were many games in.
• 3:35
  Speaker 8: That championship season where they didn't shoot the ball. Well,
• 3:37
  Speaker 8: hell do you remember Game five when they clinched the championship.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: They were a game.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: But how they win, how they win the game most
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: how they win that game.
• 3:46
  Speaker 8: They defended, they played harder physically. They You don't you
• 3:53
  Speaker 8: know when you make your name for yourself by playing
• 3:56
  Speaker 8: great offense, the number one offense in the NBA, and
• 3:59
  Speaker 8: suddenly the offense doesn't work and your reaction is to
• 4:02
  Speaker 8: just shut down, That ain't it? Yeah, there's other ways
• 4:08
  Speaker 8: to win a basketball game. And what's crazy about it?
• 4:11
  Speaker 8: If you watched the first quarter last night, in the
• 4:14
  Speaker 8: first quarter in which the Nuggets scored eleven points, wasn't
• 4:17
  Speaker 8: their worst playoff first quarter? They scored what was eight
• 4:21
  Speaker 8: in that first quarter against OKC last year in the playoffs,
• 4:24
  Speaker 8: But the difference was they stopped playing.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Right. You can't just stop playing.
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: You know, Here's what's brutal is that they have this
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: this lack of response and a texture brings up this
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: is what happened last year. They won game won, they
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: lost game to the up blown out in game three.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: You have to factor in the context of this game,
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: which was you got called soft by your opponent by name.
• 5:02
  Speaker 7: He didn't say a team, it was individually if.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: He went boom boom, boom, boom boom, put a finger
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: in your face.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Yes, and no point.
• 5:11
  Speaker 8: That never happened in the OKC series last year. Well,
• 5:14
  Speaker 8: that never happened in any other series. I don't listen
• 5:16
  Speaker 8: to me.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: Listen to me.
• 5:18
  Speaker 8: I have been following Nuggets basketball for more than fifty years.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Fifty years.
• 5:29
  Speaker 8: I have never in those fifty years heard an opponent
• 5:34
  Speaker 8: in the middle of a.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Playoff series call out.
• 5:37
  Speaker 8: Your character, your toughness, everything about you. It happened after
• 5:43
  Speaker 8: game two. Nothing like that is even remotely close. There
• 5:46
  Speaker 8: was no other series where anyone said anything like that
• 5:50
  Speaker 8: fifty years. And your response is that.
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: So let's table this for a second. If you're on hold,
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: stay there. I promise we'll get back. But I do
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: want to talk about the Avs who won their game
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: last night.
• 6:02
  Speaker 7: They deserve a lot of love because they're up three.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: To nothing in their series with the chance to close
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: it out on Sunday. You know, we we kind of
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: talked about this for a second motion Ross Colton being
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: back in the lineup now and when you have a
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: deep lineup where maybe guys need to be healthy scratches
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: that are good players that you've relied upon all year.
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: When they get in the game, they're super motivated. I
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: thought Colton was flying around last night.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. I don't dislike the fact that some
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: guys have to really compete for ice time. Yeah, you know,
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: I don't. Ross Colton behaved like he never wants to
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: leave the ice again. I thought he played a really
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: good game last night. The style of the Kings employee. Again,
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: it wasn't until that third period when and you caught
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: a couple of breaks, no doubt about it, that that
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: shorthanded goal was huge. But you see how the Kings, however,
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I mean you could see how the game looked for
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: once they really had to try and play right and
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: what they really had to try and score be put
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: it that way, and then of course they get the
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: power play goal. But I thought that everybody played pretty
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: pretty well. It's not a fun series to play in.
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, the Kings are hitting. It's not a fun
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: series to call at times because dude, there's no flow
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: to the game. It's all ugly, muckety, horrible stuff. By
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: the way path, the stat where's my phone path? The
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: stat gave me the stat on Nathan McKinnon. And this
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: is how rare it is that McKinnon does not get
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: a shot on goal ninety eight career playoff games. Only
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: four times in his career has he had no shots
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: on goals. Last night was his first game without a
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: shot since April twenty fourth of twenty twenty three, so
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: it's been three years that he hasn't had a shot
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: on goal. In the other ninety four games, he averages
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: five shots per game. Yeah, so what do they doings
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: to him?
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: Who wo was doing? I was just gonna ask Mos this.
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: In the middle of the second period. Vic La had
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: a lot of momentum going their way. It's a one
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: to one game, and Mos it was I think their
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: best of the entire series. That just standing the Avs
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: up in the neutral zone making sure they couldn't get
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: through anything, and I started to have this failing like, dude,
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: la is starting to get on a roll here a
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: little bit. And luckily that's right when Cale danced his
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: way through put the goal in got you a one
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: goal lead. But they at the neutral zone were just
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: they were a brick wall you couldn't get.
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: There were Yeah, there were times when when the Kings
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: were the better team in the game. For sure, we
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: and we had no problem admitting that on the broadcast,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: that they're really controlling the play because they're desperate. I mean,
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: when you see that level of desperation, is it recognizable
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: to you? But I mean when you see it, when
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: you see a.
• 8:52
  Speaker 7: Team play like that, you knew it was coming too.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. And I mean the ads were able to with
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: stand Vick. What are they doing. They're shadowing him like crazy,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: They're sending help all the time, and then they're denying shots.
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: I mean they're basically standing up like a wall. He
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: tried to shoot, He had some blocked, he missed the net.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Sometimes he just never had one that actually was stop
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: by Forrestburg. It was like he stopped shooting, like he
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: didn't even try. It's that he missed or had them blocked,
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: and they are if a team wants to pay special
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: attention to a line and throw everything at it, okay,
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: they can do that in the National Hockey League. And plus,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: like you said, Brett, they stand you up in the
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: neutral zone and at their own blue line. They're not
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: gonna let you stick handle into the zone. They are
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: going to try and force And you can do this
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: because you have enough guys. The dump and chase method
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: by the top line all night long, and it is laborious.
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: Speaking of Nate, what the hell was the call? Because
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: I think I had the sound on maybe the Nuggets
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: game at the time. I can't remember the double call
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: that sent McKinnon to the to the box and it
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: was a four on four and I didn't see McKinnon
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: doing anything.
• 10:10
  Speaker 7: Did they call him bellishman or something?
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: They did? They called him bellishman? Really you got? I mean?
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Sammy Hellenius is six foot six and two and forty
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: pounds and and he cross checks him out once but
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: twice of the blue line and they falls down and
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: gets right back up, and they called him for embellishment.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: And if you look it all depends on your perspective.
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: Nate's a strong son of a gun. I mean, he
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: really is strong on his skates. He's hard to knock over. Yeah,
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: and if you ask people who are not ABS fans,
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: oh it's an absolute dive. If you ask GABS fans,
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: it's like you got a six foot six two and
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: forty pound guy cross checking him hard in the back.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: So they called himbellishment on that co Pitar.
• 10:50
  Speaker 7: Was that the play that Landy sort of crashed into
• 10:52
  Speaker 7: the net?
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, okay, yeah, maybe we should maybe we should
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: actually be happy that co Patar did not get an
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: embellishment penalty on the Kulak interference call, right, I mean
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: co Patar behind the net, I mean he did. You
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: see him spin himself around and throw himself out of
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: the ice. I mean that's Look, you're not a future
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Hall of Famer without a couple of tricks up your sleeve,
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. And Dowdy's that way, co
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Patar is that way. They're you know, they're losing the series,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: they're gonna do all they can. Well, that's the power
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: play that that they have scored the shorthanded goal. So
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: you know, hey, look man, I'll I'll take it all
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: day and all night.
• 11:36
  Speaker 8: The goal that LA scored the tie it and it
• 11:39
  Speaker 8: resulted in the power play for the Kings.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: No, who scored that goal?
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: Who scored that goal for LA.
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: To tie it and won a piece? Uh to tie it?
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: It was it was Trevor Moore. That's the one where
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: that that was. That wasn't even straight goal vic That
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: was the first of the series.
• 11:56
  Speaker 8: But but a power play emerged right after that because
• 11:59
  Speaker 8: the guy got bloodied.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they didn't. They have killed that off was Manson.
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: Manson got a high double minor, so they got two minutes.
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so so basically it was a double minor. But
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: because he did the high stick and then Wedgewood makes
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: the save, but it goes off the pants of Trevor
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: Moore went off his pants, But because it split second
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: later the puck went in the net, the first part
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: of that double miners waved off and then they go
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: with a simple power play and the Afts were able
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: to kill that off. Yeah, and again the Kings could
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: have had all the momentum there. I mean, if they
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: score there and they take a two to one lead,
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: that bearing is rocking. But it was about seven maybe
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: six seven minutes later that cal mccarr does the slippy slippy, slippy,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: slippy slippy down the blue line and then fires it.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: It's just such a huge goal scorers goal. It's such
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: a I mean, just a handful of defensemen in the
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: world can do that. It's it's that impressive. Brett.
• 12:52

  Speaker 8: Aaron Gordon, his calf tightness.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: They've shown now that that's always related to the Achilles.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: And that's a tricky situation.
• 14:19
  Speaker 8: I'm I'm puzzled as to how at the beginning of
• 14:23
  Speaker 8: the day yesterday he was listed as probable, then he
• 14:27
  Speaker 8: moved to questionable. Yeah, and then he went I mean,
• 14:30
  Speaker 8: it was just crazy the turn of events that happened yesterday.
• 14:34
  Speaker 8: Unless it tightened up considerably after shoot around and they
• 14:38

• 14:41
  Speaker 8: that's a rare situation that occurred yesterday that doesn't happen
• 14:46
  Speaker 8: And what's even crazier is the Nuggets were favored in
• 14:50
  Speaker 8: the game yesterday Aaron Gordon gets hurt.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: He's listed his out.
• 14:55
  Speaker 8: Guess what, They were still favored to win the game.
• 14:59
  Speaker 8: Take a look at Saturday's matchup most you want? You
• 15:02
  Speaker 8: want to blow yourself away? Here, take a look at
• 15:04
  Speaker 8: the odds for Saturday's game right now.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: All right, let me take a look here. Stop, just
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: hold your horses.
• 15:11
  Speaker 7: Please have Vic shut up?
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Brett, do you have any horses? Hold them? Uh? It
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: says and a half? Yeah's minus two and a half.
• 15:23
  Speaker 8: The Nuggets are favorite Saturday two.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 15:29
  Speaker 4: So yeah, I don't know what to do with that information.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: I I but before before we jump back into this stuff,
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: can I say one thing about the draft last night,
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: because we haven't said anything about it. I just want
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: to say one thing real quick. Uh So, Mendoza gets
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: drafted first overall. We knew that five months ago. Leggy's
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: best player that he had in his top one hundred
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: RVL rees does not go second. The Jets take David Bailey,
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: he goes fifth. Jeremiah love your boy. Vic does go
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: number three overall. He's the highest running back drafted since
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: Saquon Barkley. Here's what I think is really interesting.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: Noted had two running backs in the first round.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so after that, I'm like, Okay, well, who's coming next.
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: It's Carnel Tait, Ohio States wide receiver goes to Tennessee.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: And you saw a theme between Tennessee, between the Saints
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: with Jordan Tyson at number eight overall, with the Browns
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: and the Giants at nine and ten taking tackles, all
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: those teams of young quarterbacks trying to get their guys weapons,
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: and then at thirteen the La Rams who have Matthew
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: Stafford at the end of his career. There's rumors that
• 16:45
  Speaker 4: when Stafford retires, McVeigh is going to retire to they
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: take ty Simpson. And I don't know if you guys
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: saw it, because you guys were busy last night. Did
• 16:53
  Speaker 4: you happen to see Sean mcvay's response in the post
• 16:57
  Speaker 4: draft press conference when every coach and GM is pumped like,
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: this guy, God, we've had her eye on him for
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: for months.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: He's got a great motor.
• 17:05
  Speaker 7: Blah blah blah.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Vic.
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: I want you to watch this.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Brett, I didn't see it live, but I saw
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: I saw the rolled back version of it. He didn't
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: seem too happy.
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: The audio alone is good enough, but watch it with
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: the video. This is him being asked about their first
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: round pick, thirteenth overall, Ty Simpson, quarterback, brand new quarterback,
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: first round guy for your team.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: What do you think?
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I did.
• 17:30
  Speaker 11: I'll keep that between us. I will see he's going
• 17:35
  Speaker 11: to compete with Stetson.
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: What is that? And that feels like for the first time.
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: Because the Rams are a super cohesive organization, always on
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: the same page, bleep them picks, let's win now, for
• 17:48
  Speaker 4: the first time, they made a move that is for
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: two three years down the road.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I actually I like the pick.
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: Oh, I think it could work.
• 17:58
  Speaker 8: If you think he's if you think he's going to
• 18:00
  Speaker 8: be a starter in this league, you jump on him.
• 18:05
  Speaker 8: Why you can, and you can learn something from Matt Stafford. Now,
• 18:09
  Speaker 8: if there's some behind the scenes disagreements going on about
• 18:12
  Speaker 8: whether they think he's a starter, that's an issue.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: Well, I don't know if McVeigh doesn't think he's good.
• 18:17
  Speaker 4: I think mcveigh's like, dude, we're trying to win the
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl. We just had the thirteenth overall pick, and
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: we used to pick up a guy who's not gonna play.
• 18:24
  Speaker 7: I think that's why he's mad.
• 18:26
  Speaker 8: It is odd that he didn't speak to him until
• 18:28
  Speaker 8: he was drafted.
• 18:29
  Speaker 7: That's what he said.
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: He just did an interview at the owners meetings with
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: Kay Adams and he's like, yeah, I think he's a
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: good player. I'll be honest, I haven't watched him very much.
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: And I'm like, well, you took him in the first
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: round and he.
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: Simpson's never spoke to him.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this is Aaron Rodgers quarterbacking the Packers and they
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: keep drafting cornerbacks and stuff, and he's like dude. He's like, dude,
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: I need a weapon. So anyway, Don McVay sounded look
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: to me like Aaron Rodgers in those years.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: We can do that.
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: More of this a little bit later as the show
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: goes on, but it was an interesting moment in the
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: draft last night. Now, Vick, you wanted to get some
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: audio from the Nagati, Yeah, I want to.
• 19:03
  Speaker 8: I want to hit on a couple of things in
• 19:05
  Speaker 8: this segment, because number one, I want to hear from
• 19:09
  Speaker 8: Joker Jamal, I want to hear from David Adelman again.
• 19:11
  Speaker 8: I want to hear from Jade McDaniels, who addressed reporters
• 19:15
  Speaker 8: last night after he backed up what he had to say.
• 19:17
  Speaker 8: He uh talked the talk and walked the walk, as
• 19:20
  Speaker 8: they say. But I want to start here because I
• 19:23
  Speaker 8: think this is very important because what happens is when
• 19:27
  Speaker 8: your when your team loses the way it did, the
• 19:29
  Speaker 8: blame game starts to go around.
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Which it should. Of course, people are going to be blamed.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Why wouldn't they? And I'm reading a.
• 19:37
  Speaker 8: Lot about why aren't you guys criticizing David Adelman. Why
• 19:41
  Speaker 8: aren't you guys attacking David Adelman. David Adelman has done
• 19:46
  Speaker 8: a lot of things that I'm wondering. You know what,
• 19:47
  Speaker 8: you know, what are we doing here? I don't disagree,
• 19:50
  Speaker 8: but I want to make this well known and well documented,
• 19:54
  Speaker 8: and I want your support.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Either tell me I'm wrong or I'm not.
• 19:59
  Speaker 8: I am not going to pin last night's approach to
• 20:03
  Speaker 8: that game on the head coach of the team. These
• 20:07
  Speaker 8: are professional basketball players, adults playing a game. The basketball players.
• 20:12
  Speaker 8: The adults were called out by an opposing player.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, publicly called out, one by one.
• 20:21
  Speaker 8: If it takes a coach to ramp up your hype
• 20:25
  Speaker 8: in intensity, you're in the wrong business. I don't blame
• 20:30
  Speaker 8: the coach for the way they approach the game. What
• 20:33
  Speaker 8: does it take a pregame hype speech from a coach.
• 20:37
  Speaker 8: You could blame coach for strategy rotation. You can blame
• 20:40
  Speaker 8: coaches for rotation. There's a lot of blame to go around.
• 20:45
  Speaker 8: Is that why did the Nuggets lose last night because
• 20:47
  Speaker 8: of rotation?
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: No?
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: They lost.
• 20:49
  Speaker 8: Did the Nuggets lose last night because of some sort
• 20:52
  Speaker 8: of strategy issues?
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: No? Why did the Nuggets lose last night?
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: Right came because the Nuggets clearly were not mentally right
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: for that game.
• 21:00
  Speaker 8: And I ask you, and I ask all the fans
• 21:02
  Speaker 8: who want to put this on the coach, whose responsibility
• 21:06
  Speaker 8: is it to be emotionally and mentally ready after a
• 21:10
  Speaker 8: dude called you out?
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: It's the players themselves.
• 21:14
  Speaker 8: You've been around professional sports and a long If the
• 21:17
  Speaker 8: abs are in the same situation, is that on Jared
• 21:19
  Speaker 8: Bennar or is that.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: On the players?
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: It's on the players. But let me explain the five
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: seven five five says, well, it's the coach's responsibility to
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: set the you know, set the culture. Look, anybody who's
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: been around pro sports for any amount of time and
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: the coaches will tell you there has to be you
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: can push only so many buttons or raw raw or whatever.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: Especially in the NBA, there's gotta yeah, there's it's a
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: player's league. There's gotta be a self motivation. You guys
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: just don't see it. You don't see it. You think
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: you do.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: You think this is high school, you think this is Hoosiers.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: It's not the way it works in an NBA locker room.
• 21:57
  Speaker 8: Trust me, the players run the show, correct players run
• 22:01
  Speaker 8: the show.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: And if they don't, if they don't take personal pride
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: in being called out individually by a guy who's the
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: third best player at best on the opposition, then I
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: don't know what to tell you. It doesn't David Adelman can.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: He could be the biggest badass on the planet. He
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: can personally, you know, whatever it is you want him
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: to do in front of that team inside that lockero,
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: he doesn't matter or he doesn't matter what he could say. Nothing.
• 22:29
  Speaker 8: Everybody disagrees, but you could disagree all you want.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: I know what an NBA locker room is.
• 22:35
  Speaker 8: You want me to talk to you want to get
• 22:37
  Speaker 8: You want to get Scott Hasteins onthing, who can convince
• 22:40
  Speaker 8: you of that who who could we You want me.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: To call Charles Barkley the who could convince.
• 22:45
  Speaker 8: You that what I said the players, It's on the
• 22:50
  Speaker 8: players first and foremost.
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: You could have a motivational speaker come in.
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: I think people got to understand something here. And I
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: don't think this is translating proper believes. I'm gonna try it.
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: David Adelman does not have zero percent responsibility for what
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: happened last night.
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: He has responsibility.
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: The bulk, the bulk of what went on last night
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: was all about player motivation, response in emotion towards the game,
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: which there was none.
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: Fact. In fact, I'm gonna give you this.
• 23:22
  Speaker 8: Remember when we threw microphones in front of the nugget
• 23:25
  Speaker 8: to get the reaction on what McDaniel said.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: Of all the people you heard from.
• 23:30
  Speaker 8: Adamman and all players, who was the most animated about it?
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: I think it was Adaman? Yeah, I think he was.
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: Adamman was like, can I just play here's here's Jamal
• 23:41
  Speaker 4: post game. I want you guys to listen to this.
• 23:42
  Speaker 12: Yeah, it's you know, nobody on the team's making shots,
• 23:45
  Speaker 12: including myself, So I just think, you know, the first quarter,
• 23:48
  Speaker 12: we gotta have a better start to the game and uh,
• 23:51
  Speaker 12: you know, set ourselves down on the road, nugget, you know,
• 23:54
  Speaker 12: because they played with a lot of adrenaline and the
• 23:55
  Speaker 12: crowd was into in the first quarter, and I felt
• 23:57
  Speaker 12: that we were just playing a little too fast. And
• 24:02
  Speaker 12: you know, after that quarter the score was pretty even,
• 24:05
  Speaker 12: maybe quarter to quarter, but that first really hurt us.
• 24:09
  Speaker 12: I couldn't recover from that. So it's gonna be better
• 24:12
  Speaker 12: to start the game and uh, with a more calmer mindset,
• 24:16
  Speaker 12: especially on the road.
• 24:17
  Speaker 7: I didn't feel like it got better after that. Yeh,
• 24:19
  Speaker 7: it didn't. So what you made a couple of more shots.
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: The tone of the game was the same from the
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: first minute to the forty eighth.
• 24:27
  Speaker 8: And therein there's an example of what I'm talking about.
• 24:32
  Speaker 8: Does that sound fiery to you?
• 24:36
  Speaker 13: No, No, sounds just home, matter of fact, Like that's
• 24:40
  Speaker 13: I wanted somebody last night, whether it's Joker, Jamal whoever,
• 24:43
  Speaker 13: I want somebody to go out and be like what
• 24:46
  Speaker 13: we did tonight was unacceptable, especially given the.
• 24:51
  Speaker 7: Narrative going into the game.
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: Whatever however you want to say it, it's just like
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: it does feel as if it's just a shoulder strug, like, oh,
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: we just missshots like, no, that's not the point. That's
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: not the point is that you miss shot.
• 25:04
  Speaker 8: David Adelman can ride up the greatest scheme possible for
• 25:07
  Speaker 8: that game last night.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Here's how we're gonna scheme it out.
• 25:11
  Speaker 8: Is David Adelman the reason why Jaden McDaniels in the
• 25:16
  Speaker 8: first minute of the game finishes an alley oop dunk,
• 25:19
  Speaker 8: gets fouled in the process and doesn't even feel the foul.
• 25:23
  Speaker 7: Oh how about this.
• 25:24
  Speaker 4: Let me put it this way for people who maybe
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: don't get what we're saying here, let's go shoe on
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: the other foot. Let's live in a fairytale land where
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: I know this would never happen. But just for example,
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: Aaron Gordon is playing in the game MOS and he
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: calls out the Tea Wolves and he goes, they can't
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: play defense. And I'll tell you who go Bear can't,
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: and Ant can't, and McDaniels can't and de Vincenzo can't,
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: and he does that. Yeah, there is zero percent chance
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: that Minnesota has a game like the Nuggets did.
• 25:51
  Speaker 7: Zero percent.
• 25:51
  Speaker 8: And it's not because of Chris Crintinch has nothing to
• 25:54
  Speaker 8: do with it. Paul, my buddy who listens to the
• 25:56
  Speaker 8: show every day. Just texted me this personally, and he's
• 25:58
  Speaker 8: so right.
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: Fans can't same.
• 26:00
  Speaker 8: Malone was too mean, which they did, and now that
• 26:03
  Speaker 8: Adamman is too nice. This isn't Goldilocks. This is on
• 26:06
  Speaker 8: Joker and Jamaal.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: This is on the leaders of the team.
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is on the leaders of the team. You
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: set the tone, You set the emotional tone of the team.
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: Here's the post game.
• 26:19
  Speaker 14: We didn't We kind of created open looks. We didn't
• 26:22
  Speaker 14: make it. The physicality was there, I think on both sides,
• 26:26
  Speaker 14: on both sides. But I think you know that they're
• 26:29
  Speaker 14: making you. They're big toe along, they're really good defensive players,
• 26:35
  Speaker 14: so they're making you shoot over them or just make
• 26:38
  Speaker 14: an extra move. So they're especially in the fourth quarter
• 26:41
  Speaker 14: they can make shot. So and when you open the
• 26:44
  Speaker 14: game like that, it's kind of hard. Then the easy
• 26:48
  Speaker 14: ones are not gonna go either. So really good to
• 26:50
  Speaker 14: the defensive quarter by them and a really bad defense
• 26:52
  Speaker 14: quarter offensive quarter by us.
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: That's a real, that's real, whole home type of response
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: from the best player on the planet. That being said,
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: even if even if you wanted to hide your reaction
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: with your words, you know you didn't want you didn't
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: want McDaniels with the Tea Wolves to know that it
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: really got to you, right, you know that that you're
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: you know you're I'm not affected by your words that
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: kind of thing. Your play would do the talking. Your
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: your on court want would do the talking for you.
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: And they played exactly like they sound. You know, shots
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: didn't go down. You know you do that got a
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: little bit better as it went on. I mean, they
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: their their play mimicked their reaction of being personally called out.
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: Uh, let's get a phone call.
• 27:43
  Speaker 4: The game's been waiting a long time, Gabe, appreciate the patience.
• 27:46
  Speaker 6: Go ahead, buddy, buddy.
• 27:48
  Speaker 15: Uh hey, guys calling from rural West Texas.
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: So happy to talk to some Nuggets.
• 27:54
  Speaker 15: Fand I wanted to say red dirt, Yeah, sir, red dirt.
• 28:01
  Speaker 15: I just I wanted to say, you know, maybe I'm
• 28:04
  Speaker 15: missing this from my from my angle of the view
• 28:08
  Speaker 15: on the Nuggets game last night, Joker's effort on defense,
• 28:13
  Speaker 15: especially when he was getting attacked at the rim, seemed
• 28:17
  Speaker 15: very marginal.
• 28:19
  Speaker 16: And maybe there's a better explanation for that than what
• 28:22
  Speaker 16: I could come up with, But it was kind of
• 28:25
  Speaker 16: disheartening to see that the shots weren't falling for him
• 28:27
  Speaker 16: on office, and he didn't try to make that up
• 28:30
  Speaker 16: for you know, doing the best he could on defense,
• 28:33
  Speaker 16: but rather was you know, even more lackadaisical.
• 28:36
  Speaker 6: Than normally he was.
• 28:38
  Speaker 16: So I wanted to hear your guys' opinion on that.
• 28:40
  Speaker 7: Thanks you.
• 28:41
  Speaker 4: I appreciate the call when we were talking about this earlier,
• 28:43
  Speaker 4: that Joker, especially when it's a guard, Like I said,
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: if if Rudy Gobert is hitting.
• 28:48
  Speaker 7: You know, little hook shots that he never hits, I
• 28:52
  Speaker 7: live with that.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: We have.
• 28:53
  Speaker 8: Iowed a Sumu attacking you time and time again, and
• 28:57
  Speaker 8: I mean, I don't know about you, guys, but that's
• 29:00
  Speaker 8: too easy.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: Vic.
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: There's times where Joker almost kind of like steps out
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: of the way and just kind of puts a hand
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: out there.
• 29:06
  Speaker 7: That's not good enough. And especially like I said this before.
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: It was forget the playoffs that I think was the
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: worst game I've ever seen Yokics play. I don't know
• 29:16
  Speaker 4: what he was doing. I don't know what the strategy was.
• 29:18
  Speaker 4: He obviously wasn't making shots, but more than that, it
• 29:23
  Speaker 4: felt like a lot of settling for stuff like I'm
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: just gonna huck up the three because I don't want
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: to deal with going down low. I know the strategy
• 29:30
  Speaker 4: from the first game Vic was, Hey, let's have him
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: near the top, take go Bear out of the lane.
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: But if they want to go one on one with
• 29:37
  Speaker 4: Joker and Rudy, yeah.
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Then do it.
• 29:41
  Speaker 7: Put jokics down low and do it. If they're't gonna
• 29:43
  Speaker 7: send help, then Yoki just got to win that battle.
• 29:45
  Speaker 8: Listen, I I understand Joker's approach strategically, schematically going into
• 29:52
  Speaker 8: this game. He was told and going back to ad
• 29:56
  Speaker 8: only probably sold, Hey, you gotta be more aggressive with Rudy.
• 29:58
  Speaker 8: We gotta get him in foul trouble. So he did
• 30:00
  Speaker 8: that from the very get go. It didn't work. He
• 30:04
  Speaker 8: didn't make a shots. In years past, he's fried this guy.
• 30:08
  Speaker 8: He's completely obliterated this guy.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: It didn't work. He didn't make a shots.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: And when that.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: Didn't work, when option A and that was the first option,
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: then they panicked.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: Then then it was full blown panic.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: We've been there before.
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: You're playing your you're sharing a cart with a guy
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: who's just having a really rough go at it, and
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: you feel like it's bleeding into your game.
• 30:33
  Speaker 7: His attitude, his his bad shots.
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: That's what that's what's been there. Yeah, that's that every
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: time I've played bad, I let you. I let you, guys,
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: and your bad games bleed over to me on the
• 30:46
  Speaker 2: next Kibo.
• 30:47
  Speaker 8: Can we hear in the next I need to hear
• 30:51
  Speaker 8: from Jade McDaniels, because if there's anyone on earth who
• 30:55
  Speaker 8: can do the I told you show right now, it's
• 30:57
  Speaker 8: Jade McDaniels. I want to hear what he said after
• 30:59
  Speaker 8: the game, and you guys would be very eager to
• 31:01
  Speaker 8: hear what he had to say.
• 31:02

  Speaker 2: I went back and I looked at the eighty four

  Speaker 4: Oh, by the way, stories around sports in the world
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: we feel like you should be aware of before we
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: get to other things. Kyle's been waiting for like an hour,
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: so I want to get to his phone call real
• 32:17
  Speaker 4: quick and then we'll move on.
• 32:18
  Speaker 7: But Kyle, go ahead, buddy, Thank you for being so patient.
• 32:20
  Speaker 6: Go ahead, Kyle, Hey, thanks for calling my taking my call. Guys,
• 32:25
  Speaker 6: I just have one point to make and I'll be
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: very quick. Where is their heart at? It's not just
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: last night. They get pushed around all season and no
• 32:35
  Speaker 6: one responds to anything. Like how many times did dort
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: or Caruso rough up Jokic and no one responds. How
• 32:44
  Speaker 6: many teams do How many times do teams put like
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: little guys on yolk and ballom and grab them and
• 32:49
  Speaker 6: all and push him around and take his legs out
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: and no one does anything. It's like if the team
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: is slashing and hitting the kinnon all game, are they
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: Are they gonna get away with that where they're heart act?
• 33:01
  Speaker 7: No, it's a great question, Kyle, Yeah all year.
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, are we doing this or is this?
• 33:07
  Speaker 7: We can do this real.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: Quick and then we'll move on.
• 33:09
  Speaker 7: Oh, by the way, finish your thought.
• 33:11
  Speaker 8: Go ahead, I want to I want to tell you,
• 33:13
  Speaker 8: folks that what I say about coach Adelman and the players,
• 33:19
  Speaker 8: I'm not telling you one way or another what to
• 33:21
  Speaker 8: think about David Adelman. I what they do with David
• 33:24
  Speaker 8: Adelman doesn't affect me. I'm just giving you my opinion.
• 33:27
  Speaker 8: This is not a referendum on the coach. It's how
• 33:30
  Speaker 8: you motivate an NBA player. Let me ask you a
• 33:33
  Speaker 8: simple question. Everybody in the month of January, did the
• 33:37
  Speaker 8: Nuggets look motivated when they went ten and six and
• 33:39
  Speaker 8: they beat Philly with no starters?
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: Yes?
• 33:41
  Speaker 7: Yes, who's the coach, David Adam.
• 33:44
  Speaker 8: Did the Nuggets look motivated in the season finale when
• 33:46
  Speaker 8: they beat San Antonio with no starters but joker in
• 33:49
  Speaker 8: the first Yes?
• 33:50
  Speaker 7: Who's the coach, David Adelman?
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: So is this the players of the coach who determine
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: if you're motivated?
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: Who is it?
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's right there, folk.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to argue with you. It's a players league.
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: This is on the players.
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: So.
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: Oh, by the way, stories around sports in the world,
• 34:09
  Speaker 4: we feel like you should be aware of.
• 34:11
  Speaker 7: The draft was last night.
• 34:12
  Speaker 4: Interesting thing that happened Makay Lemon. It's around pick twenty.
• 34:18
  Speaker 4: The Steelers give him a call. They're at pick twenty one.
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: I don't know if you guys saw this, and the
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: GM of the Steelers is telling him, Hey, we're going
• 34:29
  Speaker 4: to draft you at twenty one right after this pick.
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: Congratulations.
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: He's on the phone with him.
• 34:33
  Speaker 7: Listen to this.
• 34:35
  Speaker 11: Here is what it looked like from the player's point
• 34:37
  Speaker 11: of view before we discuss.
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: Put on, let's go, let's go.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: Hey, why Philly color?
• 34:56
  Speaker 8: Oh?
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: Treated for on the phone.
• 35:00
  Speaker 7: It was hard to hear going on. Sorry, I thought
• 35:02
  Speaker 7: it'd be a better IDEO on my bad.
• 35:04
  Speaker 17: Uh.
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: He's on the phone with the GM of the Steelers
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: at twenty one.
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: Don't say you're bad, you were bad, You were bad.
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: He's on the phone with the Steelers GM, who's I
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: picked twenty one and Philly trades up to twenty as
• 35:19
  Speaker 4: he's on the phone with him to trade for him there,
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: And I can't imagine what that phone calls like. Is
• 35:24
  Speaker 4: the first thing I thought of mos is what does
• 35:26
  Speaker 4: every GM say? Yeah at their goodness.
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: At their post what happened there? Yeah?
• 35:31
  Speaker 7: That was loud?
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: Me? Yes, yeah.
• 35:35
  Speaker 7: For a second I was yeah, you're still loud, You're
• 35:37
  Speaker 7: still hot?
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: Are hot? Thing down?
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: What does every GM say at their post draft press conference? Man,
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: I can't believe our guy fell to us. This is
• 35:46
  Speaker 4: the guy that we wanted all along, Whether it's true
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: or not.
• 35:48
  Speaker 7: That's what they wanted.
• 35:50
  Speaker 4: What's the Steelers gonna say, because very obviously they they
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: thought they were getting somebody else. And it's on tape,
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: So good luck pulling that one off the Steelers. Somebody said,
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: the Steelers pick at twenty one is like when you
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: the time runs out of your fantasy draft and the
• 36:10
  Speaker 4: computer just just picks it, just picks a random guy.
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: That's what happened to the Steelers' that's kind of funny.
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: I mean you've we've all had that happen, right, you're
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: taking a wizard, You're like, oh my, I didn't realize
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: that it was my pick or whatever, and they just
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: auto pick for you. It's like the Steelers auto picked
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: at twenty one.
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: By the way, So the Chiefs they trade up to
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: number six and they take Mansur Delane, the corner back
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: out of LSU who's a good player.
• 36:35
  Speaker 7: But it's one of these things I've never quite understood.
• 36:39
  Speaker 4: You traded away a corner to acquire a first round pick,
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: and then you use the first round pick on a
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: corner to replace the guy that you just traded away
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: who was really good and worthy of.
• 36:47
  Speaker 7: A first round pick.
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: It reminds me when the Bears traded away or the
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: Raiders traded away Khalil Mack and they used their first
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: round pick on Cleveland Ferrell, who was an edge rusher
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: to replace Khalil Mack. I was like, well, why didn't
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: you keep him?
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: And he's no Khalil Mack. I mean, he's right, a
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: much poorer version of it.
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Now, maybe maybe Delane's gonna be. I mean, he
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: could be a really good player.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: But I'm just saying you you you had a corner.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: But the Chiefs say that they had a top five
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: grade on this guy and they got him at six,
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: which is why they traded up right. And it's a
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: little money factor as well, in term and age and
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: all that. But yeah, I mean, when you when you
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: trade a guy and then use the pick they take
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: the same guy, it's kind of weird.
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: It is weird. So uh oh.
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: By the way, I don't know if you guys watched
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: the Braves game yesterday, but something funny happened.
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: Here in Sokow getting ready for Game three. I'm watching
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: the Braves game.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: The Braves called up a right, the Brave's called up
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: a rookie. He's making his first career start.
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: Wait, is this the old man who's crying?
• 37:52
  Speaker 7: They got the old man the crowd. He's wearing a
• 37:54
  Speaker 7: high school jersey. He's in tears. He's like, oh my gosh,
• 37:57
  Speaker 7: my son's dream is realized.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: Nelly go Ahead have made the track from Washington.
• 38:03
  Speaker 17: Dad wearing his son's Bainbridge Spartan's high school uniform in
• 38:07
  Speaker 17: support of JR. Ritchie Today and his first big league
• 38:11
  Speaker 17: pitch is hammer deep to right and is gone.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: Jeames, his first.
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: Pitch is ripped four hundred and fifteen feet right field.
• 38:23
  Speaker 7: After this, like, oh, what a heartwarming thing here.
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: I think it should be illegal.
• 38:28
  Speaker 7: That has to be a ground roll double.
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: You can't get a home run off the guy's first
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: pitch of his career not allowed.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: I guess it's I don't. Uh, that's so funny. I
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: was thinking it'd be like, you know, his first heavyweight
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: fight and dad's here and he's so proud, and first
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: punch Patam, he's on the canvas. Uh, you know, it's
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: just it's it's it's kind of funny. It's kind of funny.
• 38:50
  Speaker 7: That's just one thing here.
• 38:52
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying, you get, you realize your major league
• 38:56
  Speaker 4: dream and it just gets ripped immediately. Now, Uh, did
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: you guys see how the Knicks game ended last night?
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: Another CJ McCollum, big shot at the end of.
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: The fourth quarter and.
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: Fumble away the last possession. They're down to to one
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: now in that series.
• 39:16
  Speaker 8: Do you see how many points Michel Bridges had in
• 39:18
  Speaker 8: that game?
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: I did not?
• 39:19
  Speaker 17: Well?
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: Was zero?
• 39:20
  Speaker 7: Oh my goodness.
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's rough.
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: Uh so they are trailing two to one against Atlanta
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: in that series. Now, on the NHL side of things,
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: did anything surprise you last night, moch.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: I'm surprised that Ottawa hasn't won a game yet. I mean,
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. They they looked as completely
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: disjointed at the Ottawa Senators against Carolina. Carolina won two
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: to one last night, but I thought Ottawa would come
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: back with a little more umph and the sabes Man
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: credit Buffalo. They go to Boston after getting beat up
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: at home in Game two and they take a two
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: games to one lead. That's a hell of a series.
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: That's that's gonna be fun to watch all the way
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: to the end. So other than that, not a whole lot.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: Uh Vic.
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: We talk about injuries, Aaron Gordon being out, how much
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: that affects the Nuggets and what they want to do.
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: Peyton Watson being out, how much that affects the Nuggets.
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: Jalen Williams has been evaluated with a Grade one hamstring strain.
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: How much do you think that affects a thunder?
• 40:25
  Speaker 8: You know, I'd like to say that it's going to
• 40:27
  Speaker 8: be impactful in the later rounds.
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: For now, it's not going to impact them one iota.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: They're that deep.
• 40:33
  Speaker 8: They got through a season winning more games than anybody,
• 40:35
  Speaker 8: and they did it largely without Jalen Williams.
• 40:38
  Speaker 1: Do they need him to win a championship.
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: I don't know. They may do it without them, That's
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: what I think.
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: I don't.
• 40:44
  Speaker 3: I think you'll have minimal impact.
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: And that's weird to say for a guy who's a
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: really good player in Jalen Williams. But that's just kind
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: of how the thunder of operated all year. I mean,
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: he's been out most of the year. Did it look
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: like he affected him all that much?
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: Not really.
• 40:57
  Speaker 7: They just keep winning. No, you got one for the
• 41:00
  Speaker 7: way up.
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 41:01
  Speaker 18: Oh, by the way, the nine to nine to nine
• 41:04
  Speaker 18: challenge is old news. The Philadelphia Flyers have upped the
• 41:09
  Speaker 18: antees so at their arena they have introduced the hat
• 41:13
  Speaker 18: trick Challenge, which is three Philly cheese steaks, three packs
