- 1:36Speaker 2: and guess what we're gonna Because I don't care about
- 1:39Speaker 2: the game yesterday for the Asthmos. Sorry, I'm just being
- 1:41Speaker 2: I don't care that they lost it.
- 1:42Speaker 1: It means nothing to me.
- 1:44Speaker 2: The Dallas game's one that Matterson spurs is what matters.
- 1:47Speaker 1: I didn't watch yesterday. I watched maybe like a couple
- 1:51Speaker 1: of little snippet of the first period. Game meant nothing.
- 1:54Speaker 4: You didn't miss much. You missed porker Kelly scoring his twentieth,
- 1:56Speaker 4: which is amazing.
- 1:58Speaker 1: Very cool for him. Yeah, I know. But the game,
- 2:00Speaker 1: I mean it's over. It's over. Yeah, it's over. And
- 2:03Speaker 1: the game they needed to win they won. Correct, They
- 2:06Speaker 1: won the game on Saturday. Correct, they got enough cushion.
- 2:10Speaker 1: Dallas is pretty much wave the white flag is up. Correct.
- 2:13Speaker 1: They're trying to just ward off Minnesota at this point.
- 2:16Speaker 1: That is right. The President's it's done. It's a wrap,
- 2:19Speaker 1: it's over. It's over. The season, it is regular season
- 2:23Speaker 1: is over to the Avalanche. Now you gotta wonder what
- 2:26Speaker 1: they do to prepare for the You could see it
- 2:28Speaker 1: in the way they play.
- 2:29Speaker 4: You could see it in their eyeballs. You can see
- 2:31Speaker 4: it in everything.
- 2:32Speaker 1: And you know what game Congratulations to the Colorade away,
- 2:35Speaker 1: congrats rats. I mean they didn't flinch it. But it's over.
- 2:39Speaker 1: We all know it's over.
- 2:40Speaker 4: I think you'd like to I was sitting in the
- 2:42Speaker 4: last night going, Okay, how am I gonna try to
- 2:44Speaker 4: explain this to people who are going to be, you know,
- 2:46Speaker 4: whatever they are this morning? I want do you say, sassy, antsy,
- 2:51Speaker 4: whatever it is, you are something with a C on
- 2:53Speaker 4: the end, dumb antsy, dumb assy says whatever. But the
- 3:02Speaker 4: deal is that dumb. I'm like dumb.
- 3:04Speaker 1: Okay, they didn't care. I mean, essentially, you could see
- 3:08Speaker 1: it in the way they like. You could see it
- 3:10Speaker 1: in the way they played the game. I didn't they know.
- 3:14Speaker 1: They know that it's wrapped up. Everybody knows it's wrapped up.
- 3:18Speaker 1: So okay, then fine. Ideally, well, ideally in a game
- 3:22Speaker 1: where you can quote Clinch, you're liketing to go, you know,
- 3:25Speaker 1: full out in the back to back let's worth trumpleet
- 3:29Speaker 1: here give it?
- 3:31Speaker 2: Yeah, I did that sound that sounds what we're doing yesterday,
- 3:35Speaker 2: because I want to talk about Saturday, and let's start.
- 3:38Speaker 2: Let's start with the Nuggets first, because I think there's
- 3:42Speaker 2: for both teams. There's so much to talk about in
- 3:45Speaker 2: just the three hours that they were on the floor
- 3:47Speaker 2: in the ice. But the Spurs have lost three games
- 3:51Speaker 2: since February first two of them are to the Nuggets.
- 3:57Speaker 1: If you're keeping track.
- 3:59Speaker 2: The Lakers, who are now without Don Chic and Reeves,
- 4:02Speaker 2: are now tied with the same record as the Nuggets.
- 4:05Speaker 2: They play against Oklahoma City tomorrow. Ok See now has
- 4:09Speaker 2: an opportunity to bury the Spurs, and I think they're
- 4:12Speaker 2: going to torch the Lakers.
- 4:14Speaker 5: Which means you win tonight, you're.
- 4:17Speaker 2: Now a three seed, which for the first round might
- 4:22Speaker 2: be in unwelcome sort of thing because instead of playing Houston,
- 4:27Speaker 2: Minnesota is essentially locked into the six now, so you
- 4:30Speaker 2: would be playing them, but you would get the Spurs
- 4:33Speaker 2: instead of okay See in the second round. A lot
- 4:36Speaker 2: going on here.
- 4:37Speaker 1: The question is pretty simple for Nuggets fans. What do
- 4:40Speaker 1: you want? Because you're going to be able to manipulate
- 4:44Speaker 1: what you want here in the last four games. What
- 4:47Speaker 1: do you want? Do you want the three seed? Because
- 4:51Speaker 1: if you want the three seed, I think you're going
- 4:54Speaker 1: to get it if you take care of business. If
- 4:56Speaker 1: the Nuggets win out, they're going to get the three
- 4:58Speaker 1: seed because there's no way the Lakers are going to
- 5:01Speaker 1: be Okay, see, I want many that, san Antonio, That's
- 5:03Speaker 1: what I want.
- 5:04Speaker 5: Well, let me tell you why, because I agree with you.
- 5:08Speaker 2: The Spurs for being a young team, and make no mistake,
- 5:10Speaker 2: they are championship contenders.
- 5:12Speaker 1: That team is good. They are so good. And it's
- 5:15Speaker 1: not just wimby, no whim.
- 5:18Speaker 2: Castle, it's all it's all the assles on that team. Sorry, Vassal,
- 5:23Speaker 2: I didn't say the word. I didn't say the word.
- 5:25Speaker 1: I was trying to do the mote the thing when
- 5:27Speaker 1: he said the seas were you uncomfortable? Then I wasn't.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Think of it like hassle is what I was saying.
- 5:36Speaker 2: Hassle on anyway, Steph Castle is a beast.
- 5:41Speaker 1: He is really good. He is a beast.
- 5:44Speaker 4: Okay, reminds me what you just said.
- 5:48Speaker 1: I can't let it. I can't let it go.
- 5:50Speaker 2: Whoa, Let's just ignore what came out of my mouth.
- 5:54Speaker 2: I think that's the closest I've been cursing on this show.
- 5:57Speaker 2: It's the closest.
- 5:58Speaker 1: I bet you didn't curse. No, I didn't.
- 6:00Speaker 6: Is a playoff the word Castle prevastle.
- 6:02Speaker 1: Yes, but it's the closest I've been.
- 6:04Speaker 2: Now here's what I think is so remarkable about the
- 6:07Speaker 2: game on Saturday. Yeah, be careful where you're going. I
- 6:10Speaker 2: don't know where you're going, but I see a glint
- 6:12Speaker 2: in your eye because.
- 6:13Speaker 1: It reminded me of this. Everything reminds me of something. Okay,
- 6:17Speaker 1: I want to be great like Elvis without the tests
- 6:20Speaker 1: high your eight body guard. You have to beat up
- 6:22Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah yeah nickelback right. So but I'm like,
- 6:25Speaker 1: I'm like that, that's exactly what I was thinking. It
- 6:28Speaker 1: was a mistake. I shouldn't have done it, but I
- 6:30Speaker 1: didn't do it. Just for the record, now here's why
- 6:34Speaker 1: I thing is so.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Funny in that game because I told you, guys, I
- 6:38Speaker 2: don't know what the Nuggets can do to change my
- 6:40Speaker 2: mind of what I think they are as a team.
- 6:43Speaker 2: I'm lying to you if that game didn't change a
- 6:45Speaker 2: little bit for me, because what you got in that
- 6:47Speaker 2: game was Joker out doing the guy.
- 6:51Speaker 1: Joker took the game seriously. Yes, as opposed to the
- 6:53Speaker 1: Utah game. Both ends of the floor. He did Nicola
- 6:56Speaker 1: jokicch in that game. Compared to the Utah game, you
- 6:58Speaker 1: tell me what you saw.
- 7:00Speaker 2: I saw Aaron Gordon playing his bleepof defense.
- 7:04Speaker 1: That's our guy.
- 7:05Speaker 4: See now, that's the Aaron Gordon, that's the healthy I
- 7:08Speaker 4: can guard anybody on the floor. Watch me be a
- 7:12Speaker 4: factor in this game, Aaron Gordon, that's what you saw.
- 7:16Speaker 1: It was a team win.
- 7:17Speaker 2: I watched Cam Johnson knock down unbelievably huge.
- 7:21Speaker 4: Shot that late three, oh straightaway three was unbelievable.
- 7:25Speaker 1: You watch them give Christian Brown every open shot possible
- 7:28Speaker 1: and he made them.
- 7:29Speaker 5: Yes, yep, they dared him to shoot.
- 7:31Speaker 1: And he made them. And you know what, that will
- 7:34Speaker 1: continue into the postseason. He will be asked to do
- 7:37Speaker 1: the same thing. They're gonna give him open shots, and
- 7:40Speaker 1: the fact that he made them in a key game
- 7:42Speaker 1: like that is clutch. Well, and here's the other thing
- 7:45Speaker 1: that I just adored.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Ultimately, it doesn't matter, and ultimately I think we're all
- 7:52Speaker 2: over it. God, isn't it funny to watch the collective
- 7:58Speaker 2: of NBA media do a forehead slap at the end
- 8:01Speaker 2: of that game and be like, why did I not
- 8:05Speaker 2: think Jokic was an MVP candidate? Like they all did
- 8:08Speaker 2: it at once in that game, Because that's all it took.
- 8:10Speaker 2: I mean it was him taking on Wembin Yama and
- 8:13Speaker 2: dotting him between the eyes with a sombor shuffle to
- 8:16Speaker 2: essentially close out the game.
- 8:17Speaker 1: Everyone's going to point the Joker's offensive output, and it
- 8:21Speaker 1: was truly legendary what he did. But guys, he made
- 8:24Speaker 1: a couple of defensive stops that I think deserve credit.
- 8:27Speaker 1: He blocked a shot on the backboard, was a Champagne's shot.
- 8:30Speaker 1: He blocked his shot. How about him guarding Daron Fox
- 8:34Speaker 1: on the perimeter and forcing him baseline. He did a
- 8:36Speaker 1: couple of things during that game where I'm like, okay,
- 8:38Speaker 1: he is locked in and and he didn't turn the
- 8:43Speaker 1: bowl over once, not once now one time, so took
- 8:46Speaker 1: care of the rock. Maybe I was wrong on this
- 8:48Speaker 1: because you I think it was you.
- 8:49Speaker 2: Vic asked the question on Friday, do you think Joker
- 8:52Speaker 2: gets up for a game against another.
- 8:55Speaker 5: Big like Wenbin Yama or Embiid, And I was like,
- 8:57Speaker 5: I don't know if he does.
- 8:58Speaker 1: You know what he does. He does. He absolutely does.
- 9:01Speaker 2: There's no question that because that was a combo by
- 9:04Speaker 2: the way of like, that's a big game against a
- 9:06Speaker 2: big team two. But you could tell there was a
- 9:08Speaker 2: little extra in that game.
- 9:10Speaker 1: I'll go back to what I told you guys after
- 9:12Speaker 1: the Utah game. I'llbeit the Nuggets one. But it was
- 9:14Speaker 1: just sort of did you see the difference in intensity
- 9:17Speaker 1: from the Nuggets? Did you see the difference in the
- 9:20Speaker 1: way they approached the game? They're they're they're waiting for
- 9:24Speaker 1: the playoffs, guys, they've been waiting for the playoffs. That
- 9:28Speaker 1: need this team needs those games. You know what it is.
- 9:32Speaker 4: It just tells me now they can get to a
- 9:33Speaker 4: level that they need to be at. They can get there,
- 9:36Speaker 4: no problem, Now can they sus State.
- 9:38Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 9:39Speaker 4: We'll see when the playoffs roll around, but boy, can.
- 9:41Speaker 1: They get there.
- 9:42Speaker 6: Gotta get Pete Watson back on the court this week.
- 9:44Speaker 1: Cannot go into the postseason having not played another game
- 9:48Speaker 1: or two.
- 9:49Speaker 5: They when they said he's weak to week, does that
- 9:53Speaker 5: really mean?
- 9:54Speaker 2: Is that like hockey week to week, week to week
- 9:56Speaker 2: means you're missing a long time.
- 9:57Speaker 1: That means that he probably will not play again until
- 10:01Speaker 1: a week and week goes by.
- 10:02Speaker 6: After the Utah game.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Okay, so what's that hat he's wearing. I don't know
- 10:09Speaker 1: what you're talking about. Peyton Watson. He's got a hat
- 10:12Speaker 1: that he wears. No idea. I don't idea. I'm not
- 10:14Speaker 1: sure if I like the hat or don't like the hat.
- 10:16Speaker 1: I still decide, I don't know the hat. We don't
- 10:19Speaker 1: know what you're talking. Then that's your own problem. Again,
- 10:21Speaker 1: a reference that nobody else knows. I watched, I saw
- 10:25Speaker 1: him running on the floor. I saw his hat. I
- 10:27Speaker 1: can't decide if I like it or not.
- 10:30Speaker 2: The way that they stepped up late in the game too.
- 10:33Speaker 2: You know, it feels like you kind of got it
- 10:36Speaker 2: all in one game. You face some adversity, you had
- 10:39Speaker 2: to battle back. They did that, and then when it
- 10:41Speaker 2: was clutched, they had to make plays and they did,
- 10:44Speaker 2: which has been different than what we've seen all year.
- 10:45Speaker 1: Two.
- 10:46Speaker 2: Uh, the you know, they were down what six points
- 10:50Speaker 2: with a minute and a half left, they were damn
- 10:52Speaker 2: hit the end one three.
- 10:53Speaker 1: Yeah, they were down eleven in the second half, down
- 10:56Speaker 1: double digits, and you're like, oh jeez, they're down six
- 10:59Speaker 1: late can gets the end one And you're like, okay, okay,
- 11:02Speaker 1: they're down for late and you're like, oh jeez, they're
- 11:06Speaker 1: down four with less than a minute to play. Yeah,
- 11:08Speaker 1: and you're down, oh jeez. And they won the game.
- 11:12Speaker 2: It's just it was everything you wanted to see out
- 11:15Speaker 2: of that game. You kind of got this is Adaman
- 11:17Speaker 2: post game. So they asked because this was huge topic
- 11:21Speaker 2: of discussion when Yokich has a game like that and
- 11:24Speaker 2: MVP stuff is going around, they asked Adaman about it.
- 11:26Speaker 7: I believe this as an assistant in the last six years,
- 11:30Speaker 7: he is the best player in the world. I mean,
- 11:32Speaker 7: the efficiency this year of what he's done. I just
- 11:36Speaker 7: growing up around this, I understand that there has to
- 11:38Speaker 7: be multiple stories and different people have to win awards,
- 11:41Speaker 7: and I think that's really cool. And what webn Yama
- 11:43Speaker 7: is is so good for the game. He's so unique.
- 11:46Speaker 7: What Shay is bringing back kind of an old school
- 11:50Speaker 7: ninety scoring mentality with a new school three point shot.
- 11:53Speaker 7: I mean, all these guys are so good for the game.
- 11:56Speaker 7: But I just don't want people just to skip past
- 11:57Speaker 7: our guy because he's won it three.
- 11:59Speaker 5: Times and that's that's kind of what's happening.
- 12:01Speaker 1: Yeah, and we know that. Yeah, I mean, and that's fine.
- 12:03Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not that bent about it like some
- 12:05Speaker 1: people mean either. I just don't care.
- 12:07Speaker 2: I think it's so funny though, Victor after that game,
- 12:10Speaker 2: the amount of people that I saw, like NBA media
- 12:13Speaker 2: people being like, oh yo, get you still yok or whatever.
- 12:15Speaker 1: He needs a reminder because not many people can do
- 12:17Speaker 1: that to Wimby. There are many people in the league
- 12:20Speaker 1: that can hit shots over Wimby. Can we talk thirty
- 12:23Speaker 1: eight a game against time out though that shot we played,
- 12:26Speaker 1: cause you're talking about the somboard shuffle. Yeah, I was
- 12:30Speaker 1: equally impressed with the baseline shot too, the baseline shot. Really.
- 12:34Speaker 1: I challenge you today. I want you to stop what
- 12:36Speaker 1: you're doing. Get out of your car, grab your basket
- 12:38Speaker 1: on your truck, go to a local park, find a rim.
- 12:40Speaker 1: Right now, stop everything, stop what you're doing, and do this.
- 12:45Speaker 1: Go to the baseline of a basketball hoop. Go to
- 12:48Speaker 1: about five feet away, right outside the key float. Try
- 12:52Speaker 1: that floater. Now, not just a floater. You got to
- 12:55Speaker 1: put it over the outstretched arms of a seven foot
- 12:57Speaker 1: five guy who's up. Probably he's got the extent of
- 13:00Speaker 1: his arm at the top of the backboard. So you
- 13:02Speaker 1: got to float that thing up what fifteen feet it's
- 13:05Speaker 1: insane fifteen feet. Now, I want you to try to
- 13:07Speaker 1: make that floater in the middle of a game, with
- 13:10Speaker 1: the shot clock winding down. With everything on the line.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Go ahead. That to me.
- 13:15Speaker 2: I don't know how you recreate all of that at
- 13:17Speaker 2: your local Well, I mean, whatever you gotta do today,
- 13:20Speaker 2: whatever you gotta do this morning.
- 13:21Speaker 1: We set a timer, find somebody do it. You find
- 13:27Speaker 1: a couple of kids, and you stack them on top
- 13:29Speaker 1: of the I challenge you trench coat most listen. Listen
- 13:34Speaker 1: to me. There is no want. I want everybody to
- 13:39Speaker 1: understand something in basketball. Basketball. I'm going to talk to
- 13:42Speaker 1: basketball people. Now, basketball people, listen to me. You guys
- 13:45Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. There is no tougher shot
- 13:48Speaker 1: in the game. Everybody knows that a NBA three is tough.
- 13:51Speaker 1: Of course everybody knows that, But I'm talking about little
- 13:54Speaker 1: guinea shots. Right, we all know how tough the baseline
- 13:57Speaker 1: floater from about five feet is. It is the toughest
- 14:01Speaker 1: shot in the game. You don't have the backboard to
- 14:04Speaker 1: work with. There's nothing there. It's empty, it's naked, you're
- 14:07Speaker 1: naked waters.
- 14:09Speaker 6: It's a tough shot.
- 14:10Speaker 1: And for him to make it look that easy, it
- 14:12Speaker 1: gets a seven footer or to clinch the game. That
- 14:15Speaker 1: is the shot of the game. I get it. The
- 14:17Speaker 1: son board shuffles is gonna get everybody. But it was gorgeous.
- 14:19Speaker 1: The soam board shuffle was awesome, Vic, but we've seen
- 14:21Speaker 1: that before. It's the floater on the baseline that people
- 14:24Speaker 1: don't understand how difficult that is.
- 14:27Speaker 4: Okay, then promise me something. Everybody who's listening.
- 14:30Speaker 1: To Vico's stopping with their basketball. I hope those basketballs
- 14:34Speaker 1: be Take those pickleballers, move them off the court. Okay,
- 14:38Speaker 1: that being said, stack up the pickleballers right now. Stack them.
- 14:42Speaker 1: Once you do all that, go to the low block.
- 14:47Speaker 1: Pre tell like you're backing in the block and give
- 14:49Speaker 1: me a drop step. Yeah over seven footer seven foot
- 14:52Speaker 1: foot impossible. But in fact, I guess what what makes
- 14:55Speaker 1: it so impressive is that how can I describe you?
- 14:57Speaker 1: Stay right there before we get thurn the first break
- 14:59Speaker 1: hand when Wemby, When Wemby's in the key, but he
- 15:04Speaker 1: steps out to try and block your shot because he's
- 15:09Speaker 1: the longest human on the planet. He takes one and
- 15:12Speaker 1: a half steps and then his hand is over you
- 15:16Speaker 1: yeah him, And because he just goes yeah, Now you
- 15:22Speaker 1: have to shoot it over. But you find an avenue,
- 15:24Speaker 1: gigantic appendage, and how do you get it over the
- 15:27Speaker 1: advantage with the right thing to do. No, it's a
- 15:31Speaker 1: it's a I'm telling you. The ability for this Yeah,
- 15:36Speaker 1: it's the ability for this man to score in ways
- 15:40Speaker 1: that we haven't seen.
- 15:41Speaker 6: The touch that he possesses, the soft touch is.
- 15:44Speaker 1: It's unreal, and he makes it look so easy and
- 15:47Speaker 1: there's not another player in the game that can do that.
- 15:50Speaker 1: Luca can do it, Luca can. I take that back.
- 15:52Speaker 1: Luca can make those kind of shots. But Nicola does
- 15:56Speaker 1: it at you know, seven feet tall. So I just
- 15:59Speaker 1: challenge any one to try that again by the end
- 16:01Speaker 1: of the day. If you haven't stopped what you're doing
- 16:04Speaker 1: to attempt that baseline shot, that floater, I don't know
- 16:06Speaker 1: what you're doing in life.
- 16:07Speaker 2: Get back to this in a second, get to the
- 16:09Speaker 2: second half of Saturday in just a moment with the
- 16:11Speaker 2: Avs next.
- 16:12Speaker 3: Another field clearance by Dallas mi Lynsky for taps at
- 16:15Speaker 3: the slot lucking in. Has Natu's pecked these goals. It's
- 16:21Speaker 3: a Marty party. Natus no points versus Vancouver, but he
- 16:30Speaker 3: gets Colorado on the board with nine twenty one to
- 16:33Speaker 3: go in the third. It's his thirty sixth goal of
- 16:37Speaker 3: the season and the ice is broken. In Dallas. What
- 16:41Speaker 3: a look from lucking in back door Na just beat
- 16:44Speaker 3: Bishal to the post and it's a tap in to
- 16:47Speaker 3: make it one nothing Colorado.
- 16:50Speaker 1: It's funny.
- 16:50Speaker 2: I got two screens on while these games are going,
- 16:53Speaker 2: and my eyes just pingponging back and forth because both
- 16:56Speaker 2: games have like four minutes left.
- 16:57Speaker 5: Everything's on the line, and I gotta be honest.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Motion.
- 17:01Speaker 2: When I first saw that Natures goal, I thought Lekingon
- 17:04Speaker 2: shot it and missed. It wasn't until the replay that
- 17:07Speaker 2: I saw it was just a perfect pass right there
- 17:11Speaker 2: on the opposite goal post for a little knockin for
- 17:13Speaker 2: Marty Nacho's. You know, it's one of those things, a
- 17:16Speaker 2: reminder how damn good Lekenon is and how much you
- 17:21Speaker 2: missed him when he.
- 17:22Speaker 5: Was out of the lineup.
- 17:22Speaker 4: No DoD I saw, Oh my god, there was a
- 17:27Speaker 4: play when he was behind the net. The puck ricocheted
- 17:30Speaker 4: and it sort of laid on the back of the
- 17:32Speaker 4: net or right at the bottom of the back of
- 17:33Speaker 4: the net, and then it scored it out from underneath him.
- 17:37Speaker 1: But I didn't know it was him. And there's a
- 17:38Speaker 1: Dallas star going bam bam, like yeah, cross.
- 17:42Speaker 4: Checking him in the numbers and his face is smashing
- 17:44Speaker 4: into the back of the net like this.
- 17:46Speaker 1: Right, I'm going, who is that? And he gets up
- 17:49Speaker 1: it's lucky.
- 17:50Speaker 5: I'm like, oh, yeah, that's tough, sbeity.
- 17:52Speaker 1: That's what he does. He absolutely takes the abuse too.
- 17:58Speaker 1: But you know what made that place so good? Let
- 18:01Speaker 1: me tell you what made that play so good.
- 18:03Speaker 4: Vic lekking In is down low and his typical spot
- 18:07Speaker 4: is down toward the front of the net.
- 18:09Speaker 1: He rotates high in the zone. Okay, so then what
- 18:14Speaker 1: he does is he starts to draw guys up because
- 18:17Speaker 1: he rotates higher in the zone, he opens that space
- 18:21Speaker 1: below the dots just enough. Marty realizes pitches right to
- 18:27Speaker 1: the side of the cage and a perfect feed from
- 18:29Speaker 1: liking him because he doesn't play the game out there. Yeah, like,
- 18:32Speaker 1: he doesn't play the game really above the tops of
- 18:35Speaker 1: the circles at all. Everything he does is below the
- 18:38Speaker 1: dots in terms of his real effectiveness. But he drew
- 18:42Speaker 1: guys out beyond. I mean they just opened it up
- 18:46Speaker 1: and stretched it out enough to allow that scene pass
- 18:48Speaker 1: to get through for the tap, and it was a
- 18:49Speaker 1: brilliant play.
- 18:51Speaker 2: Uh Marty Natius. By the way, if you guys are
- 18:53Speaker 2: keeping track at home. I believe I have these right.
- 18:57Speaker 2: Since the Olympic break, he has fourteen goals eighteen assists
- 19:01Speaker 2: for thirty two points. I would challenge almost anybody in
- 19:07Speaker 2: the league to tell me who's had a better post
- 19:10Speaker 2: Olympic stretch than Martin Nachius in the NHL.
- 19:12Speaker 1: Uh, mcpickles is up there.
- 19:15Speaker 2: My point is he's in the conversation for like the
- 19:17Speaker 2: best player in the league post Olympic.
- 19:20Speaker 1: B That is absolutely correct, and he's currently see where
- 19:24Speaker 1: he's He's still tied eighth with Shifley for points at
- 19:28Speaker 1: ninety four. Is he gonna get to one hundred? He
- 19:31Speaker 1: very well could. Yeah, he very well could, which I
- 19:34Speaker 1: mean you.
- 19:36Speaker 2: I know everybody wants to do a one to one
- 19:38Speaker 2: on this, especially when they played Dallas over the weekend.
- 19:41Speaker 2: But I saw, like some some people saying this, it's
- 19:45Speaker 2: undeniable that Nachius is better with McKinnon than Ranton, and
- 19:48Speaker 2: everyone was.
- 19:49Speaker 1: I don't know if that's the case. There's certainly different
- 19:51Speaker 1: types of players, different different different but.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Miko had two seasons I believe hundred point seasons with
- 19:58Speaker 2: Nate could get there this year. It does feel like
- 20:03Speaker 2: style wise, him and McKinnon just click, They really really do.
- 20:07Speaker 4: And when you see when you see them both flashing
- 20:10Speaker 4: into the zone, ones trailing the other, these deaf little
- 20:13Speaker 4: drop passes.
- 20:14Speaker 1: And then the guy drives and opens up ice. I
- 20:16Speaker 1: mean it just it creates opportunity for both of those guys.
- 20:20Speaker 4: By the way, McKinnon now has he's the only he's
- 20:26Speaker 4: the first guy since Yoger in nineteen ninety five, so
- 20:31Speaker 4: thirty one years, they have like ninety eight even strength points.
- 20:37Speaker 1: Some of these guys get fat on the power play.
- 20:40Speaker 1: Nathan McKinnon gets fat strength Yeah, and he had the
- 20:43Speaker 1: empty Nader on Saturday. Don't get me wrong, but even
- 20:46Speaker 1: strength points are huge.
- 20:47Speaker 6: Can I ask you a question?
- 20:48Speaker 1: Please? Why didn't Dallas start their number one goalie? I
- 20:55Speaker 1: don't know. I'll alright, let me turn my catching to you, right,
- 20:59Speaker 1: he can answer the question. Why wouldn't Dallas, who had
- 21:03Speaker 1: one last chance there to catch the Colorado Avalanche? Why
- 21:09Speaker 1: wouldn't they go with their number one in a game
- 21:11Speaker 1: of that magnitude.
- 21:12Speaker 2: My best guess they knew they weren't catching the Abs anyway,
- 21:17Speaker 2: they didn't want to give them a look.
- 21:18Speaker 1: I don't know if i'd like your answer. Let go
- 21:19Speaker 1: back to Moses your mosh. Yep, this is it. You're
- 21:24Speaker 1: not going to get another chance to play them and
- 21:27Speaker 1: beat them, and you decide you're going to play your
- 21:30Speaker 1: number two.
- 21:30Speaker 4: Okay, let me, let me, let me just throw a
- 21:33Speaker 4: little bit at you. They treat their number two like
- 21:36Speaker 4: a really good player.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Okay, stop what you're saying. It's not out'n sure. Back
- 21:40Speaker 1: to back to you again. This is the avalanche. This
- 21:44Speaker 1: is a national television game. If you win this game,
- 21:49Speaker 1: perhaps you deal them a scare and you decide to
- 21:53Speaker 1: go with your number two goalie in a game of
- 21:55Speaker 1: that consequence. He also, this is not you, this is him. Now,
- 22:00Speaker 1: answer please.
- 22:03Speaker 2: I don't think that they thought they were going to
- 22:06Speaker 2: catch the aves anyway, and so they said, all right,
- 22:09Speaker 2: I'm not gonna give you a look.
- 22:11Speaker 1: And here's what we've deduce talking to these two gentlemen here.
- 22:13Speaker 1: One guy says he doesn't think that Dallas had any
- 22:18Speaker 1: vision to catch the aves. The other guy seems to
- 22:21Speaker 1: confuse one goalie with the other goalie, thinking they're both
- 22:24Speaker 1: the same, and they treat him the same, which is
- 22:25Speaker 1: absolute lunacy, because come playoff time, Ottinger is playing, not
- 22:29Speaker 1: the other guy, right, genius? What you got for me? Then? No,
- 22:33Speaker 1: that's why I'm asking you guys.
- 22:34Speaker 4: Well, I'm telling you Casey the Smith has better He's
- 22:37Speaker 4: got better numbers than Okay, Okay, don't vic. I don't
- 22:40Speaker 4: know why You're gonna have to go ask Glenn Goullidson.
- 22:43Speaker 6: Your answer was the dumbest.
- 22:45Speaker 1: Well, oh, you know they like to treat both goal
- 22:47Speaker 1: Come on, in the playoffs, who's playing? It's gonna be?
- 22:50Speaker 1: It is.
- 22:51Speaker 2: It is funny though, because so Blackwood goes out, he
- 22:56Speaker 2: plays yesterday, he loses his third string start, and the
- 23:01Speaker 2: Aps just for whatever reason, are not playing as well
- 23:04Speaker 2: in front of him as they are in front of Wedgwood.
- 23:06Speaker 6: We know, starting for the abs of the player.
- 23:08Speaker 1: Yes, But.
- 23:10Speaker 2: My my question about this is, I think part of
- 23:14Speaker 2: this because of where the Abs are at standing wise,
- 23:17Speaker 2: and where they're at in the schedule, they have games
- 23:19Speaker 2: that they need to get up and play for and
- 23:22Speaker 2: games that they don't care as much about. Dallas was
- 23:24Speaker 2: a game that they knew they had to play well,
- 23:26Speaker 2: and so they limited them to what was it, most
- 23:29Speaker 2: seventeen shots through three periods.
- 23:31Speaker 5: That's all that Dallas got on.
- 23:32Speaker 1: That is correct. Let me ask let me add another
- 23:34Speaker 1: element to the question. I asked, if you guys have
- 23:36Speaker 1: no answers, please you know what? He asks questions that
- 23:42Speaker 1: are unanswerable. Does you know what?
- 23:44Speaker 5: Hey, Vic, you're the Nuggets guy. You didn't even know
- 23:46Speaker 5: the hat that?
- 23:48Speaker 1: Yeah, kie. I thought I'd be able to get answers
- 23:51Speaker 1: on a sports question on a team we cover, especially
- 23:54Speaker 1: against a team that is in their way, But they
- 23:56Speaker 1: can't answer the question. So now I'm gonna go to
- 23:58Speaker 1: our loyal audience, viewers and listeners. Let me ask you this.
- 24:02Speaker 1: Hire eight bodyguards who who like to beat up. Let
- 24:05Speaker 1: me ask you this.
- 24:06Speaker 6: No, you tried you guys, voc slailed you, guys swung,
- 24:09Speaker 6: and you missed.
- 24:10Speaker 1: Jesus God. So you set your number one goalie. If
- 24:12Speaker 1: you're Dallas, you lose the game. You lose a tight game,
- 24:16Speaker 1: but you lose the game. And now not only do
- 24:19Speaker 1: you lose any hope of catching the ABS that's gone,
- 24:21Speaker 1: you're two points shy of Minnesota catching you. You'll let
- 24:26Speaker 1: them sneak right up on you in the process because
- 24:29Speaker 1: you didn't play your number one goalie. I think this
- 24:32Speaker 1: is a coach overthinking the situation. Is what I think.
- 24:35Speaker 1: I think it's a coach who thought he was smarter
- 24:38Speaker 1: than everybody and did the wrong move. That's what I
- 24:41Speaker 1: believe happened. That's what I believe happened. Good watch this, guys.
- 24:46Speaker 1: We're gonna throw him a curveball and go with our
- 24:48Speaker 1: number two and beat him with our number two. And
- 24:52Speaker 1: it didn't work. That's what I believe happened. Anybody else
- 24:56Speaker 1: cared to offer any idea why Dallas would do that.
- 25:02Speaker 2: I'm not playing your games anymore. Okay, I'm done playing
- 25:06Speaker 2: your games.
- 25:06Speaker 1: So let me go to the text line. Let's see
- 25:10Speaker 1: here Vic is being an a hole. But the other day, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 25:15Speaker 1: that's number two pitch to shut out in the previous game,
- 25:21Speaker 1: so they rode the hot hand.
- 25:23Speaker 5: Really, Ottinger just pitches shut out.
- 25:25Speaker 1: Okay, uh, danan Wind just says absolutely, Vic is correct.
- 25:30Speaker 1: My old man used to say that Tweeter basically, oh
- 25:32Speaker 1: that was about the baseline shot. Never mind textas says, hey, Vic,
- 25:36Speaker 1: why did Italy blow it? Because they're not good enough?
- 25:39Speaker 1: Because I could, I could speak to three, I could
- 25:41Speaker 1: give you a three hour answer and widely blew it
- 25:43Speaker 1: no interest. The difference is my Cohorts cannot answer. I
- 25:46Speaker 1: gave you. Whether you like it or not is a
- 25:49Speaker 1: different thing. Fifteen to fifty four, Ottinger was playing poorly,
- 25:52Speaker 1: this Smith was playing better. Maybe they felt the Smith
- 25:56Speaker 1: gave him a better chance. I'm gonna ask you texture
- 25:59Speaker 1: in the playoffs, who's the starting goaltender? And Dallas shut up? Uh?
- 26:03Speaker 2: The other things other details about that game. I did love,
- 26:07Speaker 2: By the way, when Landiskog thought that Robertson took.
- 26:11Speaker 1: A dive there and he was like, all right.
- 26:15Speaker 2: You want to play this game. You want to fake
- 26:18Speaker 2: like that one hurts you. I'll show you something that hurts.
- 26:21Speaker 4: Can I give you a little Let me go back
- 26:23Speaker 4: to my Italian roots. Here I saw Laniskog. I saw
- 26:28Speaker 4: him head toward Robertson, and I mean, having done every
- 26:32Speaker 4: game he's ever played in his life.
- 26:35Speaker 1: I thought to myself, mom me, here we go. Because
- 26:39Speaker 1: he was a dive. It was a friggin desive. He
- 26:45Speaker 1: anticipated he was going to get hit right, correct, and
- 26:47Speaker 1: then he started falling. That is correct. He should have
- 26:49Speaker 1: had two for embellishment is what he should.
- 26:51Speaker 6: There is there a way to review embellishment?
- 26:54Speaker 4: No, No, it's either either. Could they call it immediately
- 26:57Speaker 4: or they don't.
- 26:58Speaker 6: Now my mom is yelling embellishment.
- 27:00Speaker 4: Was I love that man being a good mom me?
- 27:03Speaker 4: So then not only does he get in his face,
- 27:05Speaker 4: but he chases him all the way to to the
- 27:07Speaker 4: half boards.
- 27:08Speaker 1: What do you think he was saying, don't you? Yeah? Yeah?
- 27:11Speaker 1: If you like basically what Brett said in a clean way,
- 27:15Speaker 1: if you want to fall down, I'm gonna give you
- 27:17Speaker 1: a reason to fall down. What I can't help you.
- 27:21Speaker 1: I can help you if you want to fall Who.
- 27:23Speaker 4: Was the guy that was trying to keep Landeskog off
- 27:25Speaker 4: of Robertson.
- 27:29Speaker 1: I can't remember. It was Miko. Oh. Yeah. He had
- 27:32Speaker 1: his arm around Landy's throat and Landy's like, get get
- 27:35Speaker 1: off me, Hey, Homie, get off me. Yeah.
- 27:38Speaker 4: I mean he was going and you love that out
- 27:41Speaker 4: of your captain. See, this is what I'm talking about.
- 27:45Speaker 4: What was the word I used last week when I said, hey,
- 27:47Speaker 4: when the playoffs roll around, the abs are going to get.
- 27:51Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 27:51Speaker 2: You say a lot of words, mosh Garley, gnarly Okay,
- 27:56Speaker 2: Saturday they were gnarly yah in terms of the way
- 27:59Speaker 2: they played.
- 27:59Speaker 1: Do they they have physical Dallas? How many odd band Rushes.
- 28:02Speaker 1: Do they give up against the Stars, Yeah, no zero.
- 28:07Speaker 1: You know last night they gave up like bro seven
- 28:10Speaker 1: to the Blues and they scored on three of them.
- 28:12Speaker 1: It just goes to show you, like the Nuggets, Utah game, Nuggets,
- 28:15Speaker 1: everybody's like. Then they come to play against San Antonio,
- 28:18Speaker 1: it just goes to show you both of these teams
- 28:21Speaker 1: they just want the playoffs to start. It's just playoff time.
- 28:25Speaker 2: Especially they're waiting for the as of Look, they've put
- 28:29Speaker 2: in the requisite work already. Okay, they've accomplished what they
- 28:32Speaker 2: needed to accomplish.
- 28:33Speaker 1: They're the number one seed.
- 28:34Speaker 2: Now it's just like, whatever we got to do to
- 28:37Speaker 2: officially lock this thing up. And then here's my guess mos,
- 28:41Speaker 2: maybe these guys play a couple more games. If I'm Bednar,
- 28:44Speaker 2: I'm telling mccarr, McKennon and those guys like you aren't going.
- 28:48Speaker 5: To Canada from the back to back. You aren't making
- 28:50Speaker 5: the trip.
- 28:50Speaker 1: Just stay home. We had three other home games.
- 28:53Speaker 2: Yeah, win tonight or I'm sorry tomorrow against Saint Louis
- 28:57Speaker 2: and then you guys are gonna be in Colorado until
- 28:59Speaker 2: the playoffs start.
- 29:00Speaker 4: I will say this, I think tomorrow night in Saint Louis.
- 29:03Speaker 1: The Blues are in for a real hurt. I do too,
- 29:06Speaker 1: and so it's like, okay, we it's a back to back.
- 29:10Speaker 1: You gotta fly home after the Dallas game, right, fly home,
- 29:13Speaker 1: no skate noh, blah blah. Now you gotta go play
- 29:16Speaker 1: the Blues who still mathegmatically have a chance, but they
- 29:18Speaker 1: ain't gonna make it. And all it was. I don't
- 29:22Speaker 1: know if you heard Bednar last night talking about it,
- 29:26Speaker 1: but it's it's they're being lackadaisical. Yeah, and so they're
- 29:29Speaker 1: like they're lackadaisical. So they're so they're rush coverage is crap. Okay,
- 29:36Speaker 1: you got.
- 29:37Speaker 4: Martin H's out there trying to defend a three on one.
- 29:40Speaker 4: Poor guy, I mean he's not a defenseman.
- 29:45Speaker 1: Yeah, who was that? It's Zion? Oh it is trying
- 29:48Speaker 1: to say lad said that one more time he added
- 29:54Speaker 1: a B in there. There was a b. There might
- 29:57Speaker 1: be a bee if you if you one more time,
- 29:59Speaker 1: if you look at the spelling, yeah, oh yeah, a
- 30:02Speaker 1: bubble lackadile. He definitely threw a B in this. So there,
- 30:05Speaker 1: so they're they're rush cover just crap, you know, because guys,
- 30:09Speaker 1: it's It's basically, if you're in the offensive zone there,
- 30:13Speaker 1: everybody's got a response.
- 30:14Speaker 4: If the defenseman does this down the board, that forward,
- 30:17Speaker 4: this one forward has to do this.
- 30:19Speaker 1: I mean you see what I'm saying. Yeah, so everybody's.
- 30:21Speaker 4: Just kind of goofing around in that regard and then
- 30:24Speaker 4: here comes the odd man rush.
- 30:25Speaker 1: I do but against Dallas, dude, there, it's like this
- 30:28Speaker 1: is serious. And they played perfect defensive hockey. They were really, really,
- 30:33Speaker 1: really good low key.
- 30:34Speaker 2: One of my favorite parts of that game was at
- 30:36Speaker 2: the very end they got the empty net puckets thrown
- 30:41Speaker 2: down the ice missed. I think Natius was one that
- 30:44Speaker 2: threw it down there, right, who threw it down there?
- 30:46Speaker 5: For the.
- 30:48Speaker 1: And then you're like, all right, well here comes Dallas.
- 30:50Speaker 2: You're gonna grab the puck, take it back again, Gotta
- 30:52Speaker 2: hang onto our seats, and then it just mckinna just
- 30:54Speaker 2: shouts up out of thank you.
- 30:58Speaker 1: Who came over? Do you know who? You hear what
- 31:00Speaker 1: he said? You hear what he said? He said he
- 31:04Speaker 1: had to beat Ranton into the puck. Yeah, he said.
- 31:08Speaker 4: When I saw it was him, I knew that I
- 31:10Speaker 4: would be I knew that I would beat him.
- 31:13Speaker 1: Look at how bad AI is. AI is, folks. We
- 31:20Speaker 1: got a long way to go before these stupid robots
- 31:22Speaker 1: think they're coming in on us. I asked Ai, Hey,
- 31:26Speaker 1: why didn't Dallas start Outinger against the Avalanche? Do you
- 31:29Speaker 1: want to know what AI said? Sure, let me tell
- 31:31Speaker 1: you what AI said on my computer. The Stars did
- 31:34Speaker 1: not start Jake Ottinger against the Colorado Avalanche in April fourth,
- 31:38Speaker 1: opting to start Scott Wedgwood instead. The decision was part
- 31:42Speaker 1: of a strategy to manage the Goldie's workload during a
- 31:44Speaker 1: busy stretch, and Wedgwood has been utilized to manage high
- 31:47Speaker 1: stakes playoff matchup games. And it goes on and on
- 31:50Speaker 1: and on. I didn't know that Wedgwood was all then,
- 31:52Speaker 1: it says Scott Wedgwood ultimately played for the Stars, and
- 31:55Speaker 1: it's too Nothing lost to Colorado on April fourth, stopping
- 31:58Speaker 1: twenty of twenty one shots. Folks, I'm telling you right now,
- 32:02Speaker 1: we're okay for now. Kiss the ground.
- 32:04Speaker 6: These computers are stupid.
- 32:06Speaker 1: You know what AI can't do.
- 32:08Speaker 2: AI can't do what EJ did before the game when
- 32:11Speaker 2: he talked to Landy.
- 32:12Speaker 1: This is her first game back in this building since
- 32:14Speaker 1: you took up pucket an area, No, man, should do
- 32:17Speaker 1: you have any extra protection down there? I got a
- 32:19Speaker 1: fresh cup, that's for sure. One has not dent it anymore.
- 32:22Speaker 1: But uh yeah, I'll be all right.
- 32:27Speaker 2: EJ's really good on those, by the way, he's really good.
- 32:30Speaker 6: What extra protection is there?
- 32:33Speaker 1: Well, sid's a cup? I mean what I guess metal plated,
- 32:37Speaker 1: steel plated, A couple pairs of socks. Hey, hey, is
- 32:43Speaker 1: this just go nineteen seventy seven? Hey?
- 32:46Speaker 2: All right, So a lot more to get to as
- 32:48Speaker 2: we go along today, three oh three, five, four nine
- 32:51Speaker 2: two five back after this, all right, So there's a
- 32:53Speaker 2: lot of audio from the games over the weekend I
- 32:55Speaker 2: want to get to. But just real quick, did you
- 32:56Speaker 2: guys happen to see in baseball? So the Rockies take
- 33:01Speaker 2: one of the three against Philly, So they now three
- 33:04Speaker 2: and six on the year.
- 33:05Speaker 1: It went to one year.
- 33:06Speaker 6: Yesterday's starter is their best picture?
- 33:08Speaker 1: By the way, she got them, Yeah, she got it.
- 33:10Speaker 1: Was pretty good for a thirty eight year old.
- 33:11Speaker 6: Man, he's the best picture.
- 33:13Speaker 5: Well, Lorenzen is it was? It's so Rockies, isn't it.
- 33:18Speaker 2: It's like they just come off winning a series against Toronto.
- 33:21Speaker 2: They got the home opener and you're down seven to
- 33:23Speaker 2: nothing at the end of the first time.
- 33:24Speaker 1: First time, it was too hard to want because I
- 33:26Speaker 1: actually tuned in. I know, but there's nothing you can
- 33:28Speaker 1: downed in. I took part in an opening day. I
- 33:31Speaker 1: wasn't going to go to the game because it was
- 33:32Speaker 1: too cold and I don't like to be cold, because
- 33:34Speaker 1: I'm a whost like that. But I did take part
- 33:37Speaker 1: in opening Day because it's customary, right, that's what you do.
- 33:40Speaker 6: It's your civic duty. I took part. I watched it,
- 33:43Speaker 6: and it sucks when the game is over before the.
- 33:47Speaker 1: Top half of it inning, it just sucks. Yeah. It
- 33:49Speaker 1: was over at seven to nothing, right, you know, Okay,
- 33:52Speaker 1: and I I.
- 33:53Speaker 5: Kind of get they've been using their bullpen a lots
- 33:55Speaker 5: of Like Lorenzo and You're gonna.
- 33:56Speaker 1: Have to figure this out and he's like, I can't,
- 33:58Speaker 1: but I can't, dude, he's down nothing.
- 34:01Speaker 4: It was the top of the third it's nine to nothing,
- 34:04Speaker 4: and I'm going, what whise, dude?
- 34:06Speaker 1: Still in there? Yeah, I mean this is yeah, at
- 34:09Speaker 1: that point you play it, this is like yeah, you know,
- 34:11Speaker 1: this is like you don't want to use your backup
- 34:14Speaker 1: golden for whatever reason. So a guy is giving up seven,
- 34:17Speaker 1: you just leave him in the net. Yeah, I thought
- 34:18Speaker 1: leaving him in was the right move, to be honest
- 34:20Speaker 1: with you, end, what are you going to ruin the
- 34:21Speaker 1: entire series? Well, you know, but but now you've still
- 34:24Speaker 1: got well after the first I mean, you had eight
- 34:26Speaker 1: innings to go and you knew the game was over.
- 34:28Speaker 1: That just sucks. It's really it just sucks for opening
- 34:31Speaker 1: for that to happen on huddle.
- 34:32Speaker 2: Yeah, that couldn't have if that happened this second game
- 34:34Speaker 2: of the series, be like, all right, fine, but anyway,
- 34:37Speaker 2: did you guys see right fielder for the Angels, Joe
- 34:41Speaker 2: Adele rob three home runs I.
- 34:43Speaker 1: Did in a single game in a one nothing, Yes
- 34:46Speaker 1: I did. Dude, dude, it is safe to say no
- 34:52Speaker 1: one watching baseball, I don't care how old you are,
- 34:55Speaker 1: has never seen anything like that ever ever, ever, ever
- 34:59Speaker 1: ever ever.
- 35:00Speaker 5: So and here's the thing. Sometimes they say he robbed
- 35:03Speaker 5: the home run.
- 35:03Speaker 2: It's one of those like he's in the warning track,
- 35:05Speaker 2: but the ball he makes the catch, but probably wasn't
- 35:07Speaker 2: gonna Those were three.
- 35:10Speaker 1: He was over the wall. Hell on the last one,
- 35:13Speaker 1: his entire body was open. And I love a ballpark.
- 35:17Speaker 1: Not too many ballparks have this course field is not
- 35:19Speaker 1: the short porch, the short porch where.
- 35:21Speaker 4: It rounds to the foul pole. Okay, so you can
- 35:24Speaker 4: go into the crowd like the pesky pole.
- 35:27Speaker 1: One of the coolest. So great look at that, look
- 35:30Speaker 1: at that, great great, great photos.
- 35:32Speaker 2: So I saw some you know what I like most
- 35:34Speaker 2: about that guy? His beard, like he looks like a ball,
- 35:38Speaker 2: He looks like a baseball game.
- 35:40Speaker 1: Interview was great too. Man, He's just like.
- 35:42Speaker 2: Yeah, Well they said, you know, Tory Hunter's here and
- 35:45Speaker 2: he was notorious for making those plays.
- 35:48Speaker 5: And they said, what did he say?
- 35:49Speaker 2: He said, well, they sat next to me in the
- 35:51Speaker 2: locker room before the game, so maybe it rubbed off
- 35:53Speaker 2: on me or something like that. But this catch right
- 35:55Speaker 2: here where we actually flipped into the crowd. I saw
- 35:58Speaker 2: some dumb dumbs talking about, Uh, my hot take is
- 36:02Speaker 2: if you don't make the catch in play, then it
- 36:04Speaker 2: should be a home run because you didn't stop it
- 36:06Speaker 2: from leaving the art.
- 36:07Speaker 1: Like he caught it. This isn't this isn't football. You
- 36:10Speaker 1: don't need two feet in. If it hits your glove
- 36:12Speaker 1: and you catch it, it's a nowt that's it. But
- 36:16Speaker 1: I mean, I there was a stat and look, I
- 36:19Speaker 1: take this for what it's worth. He said.
- 36:21Speaker 2: They started tracking home run robberies in twenty twelve. Nobody's
- 36:25Speaker 2: had more than one in a game before, and the
- 36:28Speaker 2: fact that he had three, including that in the ninth
- 36:31Speaker 2: inning of a one to nothing baseball game, is unreal.
- 36:33Speaker 4: Well, the first two, I don't want to say they
- 36:35Speaker 4: were kans of corn, but he tracked them beautifully and
- 36:37Speaker 4: then made the leap.
- 36:38Speaker 1: Right. He's a tall guy anyway, And I'll tell you.
- 36:40Speaker 2: Guys, just quickly moje for those who have never done
- 36:43Speaker 2: that before, they make that look easy. Do you know
- 36:45Speaker 2: how hard it is to know where you're placed at
- 36:48Speaker 2: along the wall. You feel your feet go from grass
- 36:51Speaker 2: to dirt, and all you're thinking to yourself is don't
- 36:53Speaker 2: kill yourself on the wall.
- 36:55Speaker 1: And you got a time to leap exactly right?
- 36:57Speaker 4: Yeah, the one he made, this one, the one he
- 36:59Speaker 4: made eight at the foul pull and went into the crowd,
- 37:01Speaker 4: was brilliant.
- 37:03Speaker 1: And you know what those fans around him, look at
- 37:04Speaker 1: how excited they are shout out to them for not
- 37:06Speaker 1: like mod percent. They let him do his thing. It was.
- 37:09Speaker 1: It was fantastic.
- 37:11Speaker 2: Uh So, anyway, this might be my new favorite guy,
- 37:14Speaker 2: Joanel because when I when I when he had you
- 37:17Speaker 2: heard of him before this?
- 37:18Speaker 4: Yeah, I've heard of him, but I've never watched him
- 37:20Speaker 4: play the game. But I loved his beard. I'm like that,
- 37:23Speaker 4: that's just a ballplayer beard, dude.
- 37:25Speaker 2: The Texas says, more important stat is nobody's had more
- 37:27Speaker 2: than four in a season.
- 37:29Speaker 1: He's got three already. It's just it's unreal. What would
- 37:33Speaker 1: that be akin to in golf? Like three aces in around?
- 37:37Speaker 1: What would that be? It's not as impressive as an ace,
- 37:40Speaker 1: but I would say it's.
- 37:41Speaker 2: More like three full court heaves in a basketball game
- 37:44Speaker 2: that all go in?
- 37:45Speaker 3: Yea?
- 37:45Speaker 1: How about how about shots? How about how about if
- 37:47Speaker 1: you hold out hole out from the bunker three times
- 37:49Speaker 1: in a round?
- 37:51Speaker 6: I guess yeah, yeah, yeah, that would work.
- 37:56Speaker 1: Fellas. Did you congratulations to grand views the Bets sisters
- 38:01Speaker 1: Lauren and Sierra. Is it Sienna or Sierra? I think
- 38:05Speaker 1: Sienna Cianna the Bets family, champions of the UCLA Bruins
- 38:10Speaker 1: women's National Championship game, which was a complete obliteration of
- 38:14Speaker 1: South Carolina. I watched the entire women's Final four. Did
- 38:18Speaker 1: you guys see what went down between Don Staley and
- 38:21Speaker 1: Gino Arima.
- 38:23Speaker 6: Oh my god, So what happened?
- 38:25Speaker 1: Gino just lost it and he later apologized. He should
- 38:28Speaker 1: have apologized straight to her. He lost it. You know,
- 38:30Speaker 1: he made up some crap he was he was lying.
- 38:33Speaker 1: He was mad because he lost. This is what happens
- 38:36Speaker 1: when we lose as human beings and you used to winning.
- 38:39Speaker 1: He had an undefeated season going fifteen. You said, you know,
- 38:42Speaker 1: beating everybody in your way, and you lose your your
- 38:45Speaker 1: brain starts to process it. He couldn't process he was losing,
- 38:48Speaker 1: so he made something up. Somebody says Gino needs to retire.
- 38:52Speaker 1: No he doesn't. He's the winning this coach in that sport.
- 38:54Speaker 1: He's not retiring. He went undefeated until that lost. I
- 38:57Speaker 1: hate people when they jump to conclusions. I got the
- 39:00Speaker 1: old guy needs to retire. No, he doesn't. Guess what
- 39:02Speaker 1: he's gonna do next year. He's gonna put together another team.
- 39:05Speaker 1: He's gonna assemble another team. They're gonna be great, and
- 39:08Speaker 1: they're gonna end up trying to win another national championship.
- 39:11Speaker 1: He's not retiring. This agism crap has to stop. He
- 39:15Speaker 1: had a moment of weakness. Okay, he had a moment
- 39:18Speaker 1: of weakness. It was terrible. He needed to apologize that
- 39:20Speaker 1: he did. Oh, old guy needs to retire. He's not retiring.
- 39:24Speaker 1: He's the best at what he does and he's been
- 39:25Speaker 1: the best. Right to stop it. To pivot off of that,
- 39:30Speaker 1: you can't have. He's not a very likable guy. Okay.
- 39:33Speaker 1: By the way he pulled that off was terrible. That
- 39:36Speaker 1: being said.
- 39:37Speaker 2: Don Staley ain't one to I mean she doesn't take
- 39:40Speaker 2: no agree either. She doesn't take no grief from anybody either.
- 39:43Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 39:43Speaker 4: My next door neighbor, Peter, Okay, big Michigan went to Michigan,
- 39:48Speaker 4: Big Michigan guy.
- 39:50Speaker 1: So I'm out there with my blower. Yeah, on the deck.
- 39:54Speaker 1: We're getting some laves off. All right, hurry up, And
- 39:59Speaker 1: he goes, hey, can you keep it from his backyard?
- 40:01Speaker 1: Can keep it down over there some of us trying
- 40:02Speaker 1: to sleep. Ah, well, you're happy today? He's like, oh, yeah,
- 40:06Speaker 1: I feel great. He's like, I thought they were gonna
- 40:08Speaker 1: lose Arizona. They blew him out. I said, yeah, And
- 40:11Speaker 1: we're talking about I go why, I sure as he'll
- 40:13Speaker 1: hope they beat Hurley. And he's like, why does everybody
- 40:15Speaker 1: hate Dan Hurley? My tune has changed how much time
- 40:18Speaker 1: he got there, buddy, That's basically what I said, because
- 40:21Speaker 1: he's an insufferable boob.
- 40:23Speaker 2: Oh, don't you Hurley, don't you dare say that. I
- 40:26Speaker 2: will punch you square in the mouth. You say that
- 40:27Speaker 2: in front of.
- 40:28Speaker 1: Me, two of them. Are you guys ready for this?
- 40:33Speaker 1: You guys ready for this? Come up? Come up here?
- 40:36Speaker 1: They're playing Michigan. I hate Michigan in every sport. I
- 40:43Speaker 1: hate Michigan. God, I hope you can't beats Michigan. God,
- 40:48Speaker 1: I hope you can beats Michigan. And I I am
- 40:52Speaker 1: not even a hurly guy. It's that one, actually, misogyic
- 40:54Speaker 1: for me. While you're down there. I'm not even a Hurley,
- 41:00Speaker 1: I'm telling you. Isn't it funny that Yukon has the
- 41:04Speaker 1: most insufferable coaches, Gino Ariema and Dan Dan Hurley. Yeah,
- 41:08Speaker 1: the two most insufferable coaches in the game, and they're
- 41:11Speaker 1: both very good at what they do. If they weren't,
- 41:13Speaker 1: they wouldn't have those jobs. But tonight, I'm telling you,
- 41:16Speaker 1: right now, I my hatred for Michigan is not deeply
- 41:21Speaker 1: rooted enough.
- 41:23Speaker 6: That's how much I hate Michigan sports.
- 41:25Speaker 1: That's fine, I can't. I can't go there, and second
- 41:30Speaker 1: that's where I'm going.
- 41:31Speaker 2: Just say this, then, Vic, do not tell me you
- 41:34Speaker 2: want you kind of win. Just say you want Michigan
- 41:36Speaker 2: to lose.
- 41:36Speaker 5: I'll live with that one.
- 41:38Speaker 6: I want Michigan to lose. They're not gonna lose bad.
- 41:41Speaker 1: They're probably gonna blow out Yukon because Michigan is blowing
- 41:43Speaker 1: out everybody.
- 41:44Speaker 2: The fender point, I had all of Connecticut in my
- 41:46Speaker 2: mentions for like three straight days.
- 41:48Speaker 5: And you're gonna tell me that.
- 41:49Speaker 1: Did you hear what he said when postgame interview when
- 41:51Speaker 1: he was being interviewed and everybody starts booing him early
- 41:54Speaker 1: at the end of the game. He stops the interview
- 41:57Speaker 1: and he goes, I don't know why everybody's booing. Does
- 41:59Speaker 1: it everything? What with the head? But that's what that's why,
- 42:04Speaker 1: exactly right, like he knew, tell me you exactly what
- 42:07Speaker 1: was going on. But come on, guys, if you understand,
- 42:12Speaker 1: you understand why I hate Michigan.
- 42:13Speaker 5: Right, just say you want Michigan to lose.
- 42:15Speaker 6: That's fine, but but you have to understand why.
- 42:17Speaker 1: I get I understand yes, notre Dame Michigan. Yes, I
- 42:20Speaker 1: get it.
- 42:21Speaker 5: Deep Just say I want Michigan to lose.
- 42:23Speaker 2: Okay, but if you tell me you're rooting for Dan Hurley,
- 42:26Speaker 2: I'm gonna find that hip.
- 42:27Speaker 1: Oh I hate you u Khon. I hate you kh
- 42:29Speaker 1: but I hate Michigan more. Hey speaking, this is a
- 42:32Speaker 1: hate game for me. I love hate games, but the
- 42:34Speaker 1: way I like hate games more than I like real game.
- 42:36Speaker 4: You know what you should do? Google what's wrong about Connecticut.
- 42:42Speaker 4: You're gonna get a plethora of what's wrong about that.
- 42:46Speaker 1: Sometimes you don't even have to like the teams, and
- 42:48Speaker 1: if you hate them, it makes it more pleasurable to watch,
- 42:50Speaker 1: more entertaining. What's the name is?
- 42:54Speaker 2: There's a town that I can't ever pronounce correctly that's
