- 3:45Speaker 1: pro bouncy ball and we'll start out in southern California.
- 3:51Speaker 1: It was Game five between the Rockets and the Lakers
- 3:56Speaker 1: off Broadway. The other opportunity for the Purple and Goal
- 4:00Speaker 1: to punch their tickets in the second round. It was
- 4:02Speaker 1: all guaranteed. You told me that Kevin Durant was enjoying
- 4:07Speaker 1: a little high on the bench there and looking down
- 4:10Speaker 1: at all. The celebrities and Lakers were expected to show
- 4:14Speaker 1: up collect to win, favored to do that. Well, did
- 4:18Speaker 1: you watch? Probably not Jabbari Smith Junior. He didn't play
- 4:25Speaker 1: all that great, but he had twenty two points. Tarry Easton,
- 4:28Speaker 1: who are these guys? With eighteen? And the Rockets staving
- 4:33Speaker 1: off playoff elimination for the second straight game with a
- 4:38Speaker 1: ninety nine ninety three victory over the slumping, free falling Lakers.
- 4:46Speaker 1: Oh god, this is we are getting closer to as
- 4:49Speaker 1: just an epic sports moment. In Game five, so the
- 4:53Speaker 1: Historians lead in the first round playoffs series is now shrinking.
- 4:57Speaker 1: It's three to two. They still are in front in
- 5:01Speaker 1: the series now. Alfred Shengoon had fourteen points, nine rebounds,
- 5:07Speaker 1: eight assists, and a partridge in the pear tree. So
- 5:09Speaker 1: the fifth seeded Roquettes now go back home to Texas.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Game six will be on Friday night. The better story
- 5:18Speaker 1: is in the losing locker room, so it's good jumping
- 5:21Speaker 1: off point. Let us discuss the question obvious question. Let's
- 5:25Speaker 1: not go too deep here. We're doing overnight talk radio.
- 5:28Speaker 1: The question how concerned should old man Lebron James and
- 5:33Speaker 1: the Lakers be right now. So my thoughts on this,
- 5:37Speaker 1: I've got Mark Twain be draggled and screensaver, and we
- 5:45Speaker 1: will combine all of these things together and we are
- 5:50Speaker 1: going to make some corn fritters, is what We're going
- 5:53Speaker 1: to make, deep fried corn fritters. That's what we're going for.
- 5:55Speaker 1: So a the Lakers, it's appropriate they play on If
- 6:00Speaker 1: you ever been to La, the worst part of La
- 6:02Speaker 1: is where the Lakers play. And you put the skid
- 6:04Speaker 1: in skid row on the Malard scale of concern one
- 6:08Speaker 1: to ten, we are at a seven point five on
- 6:13Speaker 1: the Malard scale of concern. And the Lakers, though, are
- 6:16Speaker 1: acting like it's a polite three. They're still acting like
- 6:20Speaker 1: it's a plight polit three. So the diagnosis, and we've
- 6:26Speaker 1: spent some time looking at all the available evidence, we've
- 6:28Speaker 1: run the test. The Mallard diagnosis right now is this
- 6:32Speaker 1: isn't just a slump. This is something more than that,
- 6:34Speaker 1: because if you look at it, for now, three straight games,
- 6:38Speaker 1: three straight games, the Lakers have been outplayed, outworked, and outclassed.
- 6:43Speaker 1: If Houston hadn't gift wrapped Game three with one of
- 6:46Speaker 1: the all time great choke jobs in the history of
- 6:48Speaker 1: that business, the Lakers would be staring down a three
- 6:51Speaker 1: to two deficit in the mirror. And you all told
- 6:54Speaker 1: me that Austin Reeves coming back. You just don't know.
- 6:59Speaker 1: You're an old geese her old man. Take. Oh yeah,
- 7:02Speaker 1: I was ripping lebron the other day and you said, no,
- 7:04Speaker 1: you know what you're talking about. Oh my god. Yeah, okay, okay,
- 7:10Speaker 1: So Austin Reeves returned, right you told me the final
- 7:12Speaker 1: nail in the rock cats coughing right there, Austin Reeves,
- 7:15Speaker 1: he'll Billy Kobe back. Baby. You told me that. Well,
- 7:19Speaker 1: it turns out that he was what in a nail,
- 7:21Speaker 1: He was more like a thumbtack. Austin Reeves. You want
- 7:25Speaker 1: a brick, He'll give you a brick. Who goofed. I've
- 7:27Speaker 1: got to know, you know what happens when you assume
- 7:30Speaker 1: you look like a donkey. Okay, you look like a donkey.
- 7:33Speaker 1: And Houston now has snatched two straight without Kevin Durant.
- 7:38Speaker 1: I think they should just send Kevin Durant. Now the
- 7:40Speaker 1: rockets on like a weed retreat somewhere, like you know
- 7:43Speaker 1: how Aaron Rodgers goes on like an Eyewaska retiet. Like
- 7:46Speaker 1: Durant should go to like a camp weed somewhere and
- 7:49Speaker 1: just leave him there. They don't need him right now.
- 7:51Speaker 1: They don't need him, or they can get him a
- 7:53Speaker 1: cheerleading outfit and put them on the side. They figured
- 7:56Speaker 1: some stuff out clearly while the Lakers they're play it
- 8:01Speaker 1: just seems like they think they've already evanced. They had
- 8:03Speaker 1: an early lead in this game, and okay, well the
- 8:05Speaker 1: Rockets gonna give up. Well they didn't give up. And
- 8:07Speaker 1: I go back to game four. I know this is
- 8:09Speaker 1: game five, but I go back to game four, and
- 8:13Speaker 1: you pooed me. They did not go for the kill shot.
- 8:17Speaker 1: Lebron looked terrible in that game. They had it right there,
- 8:22Speaker 1: the Rockets. That's the game that they're beaten and broken
- 8:25Speaker 1: after gagging up game three, and you let them off
- 8:28Speaker 1: the hook. You let them off the hook right there
- 8:31Speaker 1: in that game. And that was in game four. And
- 8:34Speaker 1: now you're waist deep in the soup at this point.
- 8:38Speaker 1: And it was Mark Twain, who famously, my dad was
- 8:42Speaker 1: a huge Mark Twain fan, so I left a bunch
- 8:45Speaker 1: of Mark Twain books around. But Mark Twain had said
- 8:48Speaker 1: Denial ain't just a river in Egypt. And right now
- 8:51Speaker 1: the Lakers are on a canoe and they're paddling around
- 8:56Speaker 1: the river. Denial is what they're doing here. And then
- 9:00Speaker 1: there's the Comodo dragon in the room. Yeah, you might
- 9:05Speaker 1: want to cover your years right now. It's wearing number
- 9:07Speaker 1: twenty three and slowing down, down, down, down down. Yep,
- 9:14Speaker 1: Lebron James defying father time. That storyline was nice for
- 9:18Speaker 1: a couple of games. It was cute. You got your
- 9:21Speaker 1: little clicks on your stories online. Way to go, You
- 9:24Speaker 1: got your engagement. You know, I got the bots. The
- 9:26Speaker 1: bots love Lebron, right, But I know I talk about
- 9:29Speaker 1: Lebron a lot, and because it's good because the burner
- 9:32Speaker 1: accounts the fake against that, all that stuff love Lebron, right.
- 9:36Speaker 1: The engagement is great with Lebron. It doesn't change the
- 9:38Speaker 1: fact that we're right. Lebron's legs look tired and his
- 9:42Speaker 1: play is now spotty. As the series has gone on,
- 9:46Speaker 1: there'll be a quarter where he plays all right, and
- 9:48Speaker 1: then there'll be one like, wow, he should really do
- 9:50Speaker 1: something else. Now, no team has ever come back from
- 9:54Speaker 1: an O three. Do you realize this ends all to me?
- 9:58Speaker 1: If the Rockets are able to pull this and still
- 10:00Speaker 1: a ways to go, If they're able to pull us off.
- 10:02Speaker 1: It ends any debate about Jordan versus Lebron, and Lebron
- 10:07Speaker 1: loses every argument. That is what's on the line here.
- 10:10Speaker 1: Do you understand if the Rockets can somehow do this,
- 10:15Speaker 1: it kills the legacy of Lebron James. It's all over,
- 10:20Speaker 1: it's done. It ends Lebron. So if you're a Lebron hater,
- 10:24Speaker 1: you gotta hope the Rockets get this done because this
- 10:27Speaker 1: ends it. All right, this is it for Lebron. You
- 10:30Speaker 1: can't have any argument. Everything goes back to yeah, but yeah,
- 10:33Speaker 1: but Lebron's team was up three games to none, and
- 10:36Speaker 1: they choked against the Rockets, who don't even have Kevin
- 10:38Speaker 1: Durant their top player allegedly wild. It is what, Only
- 10:44Speaker 1: four of one hundred and fifty nine teams have even
- 10:47Speaker 1: forced a game seven from that hole. And yet Houston's
- 10:51Speaker 1: confidence is rising and the Lakers urgency is flatlining. And
- 10:56Speaker 1: when you flirt with disaster, eventually disaster decides to play
- 11:00Speaker 1: foot see back with you, it becomes problematic. Now. Jabari
- 11:05Speaker 1: Smith of Houston had made some comments prior to Game five.
- 11:09Speaker 1: Jamari Smith pointing out, I said, well listen, we're we're
- 11:12Speaker 1: the better team. He said that, and most people don't
- 11:16Speaker 1: know basketball would say, yes, the Rockets are the better team. Well,
- 11:19Speaker 1: Lebron James was asked about that and he seemed like he,
- 11:22Speaker 1: I don't know. He just wasn't in the mood to
- 11:23Speaker 1: talk about it. Let's go to the audio tape. Take
- 11:25Speaker 1: a listen. He feels like, obviously the Rockets are the
- 11:29Speaker 1: better the best way to five.
- 11:32Speaker 2: Had some confidence growing over there. I don't care about
- 11:35Speaker 2: it that bro. The game is won in between the
- 11:38Speaker 2: four lines. I don't give a damn who cares who he?
- 11:41Speaker 2: I mean, of course, you say, what would you say?
- 11:43Speaker 2: Not the better team? Like I don't ask one of
- 11:46Speaker 2: them young guys that question on twelve.
- 11:50Speaker 1: You know what that sounds like to me? It sounds
- 11:52Speaker 1: like a man that knows that Jabari Smith is right.
- 11:55Speaker 1: Lebron sounds like he's aware. He just want to say yes,
- 11:57Speaker 1: of course, you know, I want to deal with it.
- 12:00Speaker 1: You can tell that's a guy panic. Lebron starting to
- 12:02Speaker 1: panic a little bit. This is for God, man, this
- 12:06Speaker 1: is gonna be great all right. Now, moving on to
- 12:08Speaker 1: Motown where Kid Cuttingham, who had sucked at a time
- 12:11Speaker 1: you cannot suck, woke up from his slumber in this
- 12:13Speaker 1: playoff series and went nuclear for the Pistons. A franchise
- 12:18Speaker 1: playoff How is this a franchise playoff record? The Pistons
- 12:21Speaker 1: have had great players, not for a long time, but
- 12:22Speaker 1: they've had great players over the years. Forty five points
- 12:26Speaker 1: for Kid Cunningham. Had a big step back jumper late
- 12:30Speaker 1: in that game. If you were watching, know what I'm
- 12:33Speaker 1: talking about. And Orlando was right there and he hit
- 12:36Speaker 1: the big step back late. Had five assists, five free
- 12:39Speaker 1: pointers Tobias Harris. He also had a good stat line
- 12:42Speaker 1: twenty three points, eight rebounds, a couple of steels. Detroit
- 12:45Speaker 1: staying alive, staying alive. They beat Orlando the Magic. Though
- 12:50Speaker 1: still up in that series, they head back to Disneyland
- 12:55Speaker 1: disney World there in Florida for Game six. The question
- 12:58Speaker 1: who gets the blame? Mickey ears for the Magic. So
- 13:04Speaker 1: Orlando did not just lose this game. They were behind
- 13:08Speaker 1: the entire They never the lead. They played like a
- 13:11Speaker 1: guy trying to catch a bus that had already moved
- 13:15Speaker 1: ahead a couple of blocks, and they got it close
- 13:17Speaker 1: a couple of times, and then the bus moved away
- 13:20Speaker 1: and Paulo Boncerero was puff The Magic dragon at forty
- 13:25Speaker 1: five points as well, So you had two guys on,
- 13:28Speaker 1: one on each seam with forty five points. A really
- 13:31Speaker 1: monster night and looks real sexy on the box score.
- 13:37Speaker 1: Like you look at the on the tablet you look
- 13:38Speaker 1: at the box score, you're like, man, that's really really nice,
- 13:42Speaker 1: like really good looking sexy box score with the forty
- 13:46Speaker 1: five points and great. However, you know we have to
- 13:50Speaker 1: get out the magnifying glass and nitpick Bonchero. It turns
- 13:54Speaker 1: out was actually bedraggled at the charity stride five of
- 14:00Speaker 1: twelve from now. I don't know if you realize this.
- 14:02Speaker 1: There's no one guarding you when you're shooting a foul shot.
- 14:04Speaker 1: There's no one that can block the shot. The only
- 14:07Speaker 1: way the shot can be impeded is if the air
- 14:09Speaker 1: conditioning pumps the fans directly at the ball the path
- 14:13Speaker 1: of the ball. That's about it. The Magic as a
- 14:16Speaker 1: team were frazzled. They missed fourteen, so the rest of
- 14:19Speaker 1: the team missed seven foul shots in addition to Boncero
- 14:23Speaker 1: was seven. So you can do the malor math here, right,
- 14:26Speaker 1: You can do the malor math on this, and you're like, okay,
- 14:29Speaker 1: we'll move some number nine in a seven point loss.
- 14:32Speaker 1: Those missed free throws are the flashing light pointing towards
- 14:38Speaker 1: the exit and with Franz Wagner watching from the pine
- 14:43Speaker 1: there the supporting cast. They also pulled a vanishing act
- 14:47Speaker 1: worthy of Main Street USA's Magic Shot there for the
- 14:50Speaker 1: team from Orlando. Meanwhile, Kid Cuttingham went god mode for
- 14:55Speaker 1: the Pistons and the Magic who had played really good
- 14:59Speaker 1: defense most of this series most of this series, not
- 15:05Speaker 1: so good here, and they better take care of business
- 15:08Speaker 1: in game six or they're gonna get porked in game seven,
- 15:13Speaker 1: you would think. Although the Pistons do have a high
- 15:15Speaker 1: choke factor, the clock is ticking and for Orlando, that
- 15:19Speaker 1: magic carriage is gonna turn back into a small little
- 15:23Speaker 1: pumpkin if this thing doesn't start flipping the other way quickly.
- 15:27Speaker 2: Now.
- 15:28Speaker 1: Meanwhile, the other game on the NBA card, we get
- 15:31Speaker 1: down to the nuts and bolts of this The other
- 15:33Speaker 1: game on the NBA card we go to the land Cleveland,
- 15:37Speaker 1: where Denish Shrewder who journeyman Vaga bondguard Dennis Shrewder, put
- 15:45Speaker 1: on a show late in the game. He scored nineteen points,
- 15:50Speaker 1: but eleven of them in the fourth quarter Evan Mobley,
- 15:53Speaker 1: who had gone missing. They found him and he had
- 15:57Speaker 1: a couple of key three balls late in the game,
- 16:01Speaker 1: and he had twenty three points. And the Cadaver's rally
- 16:05Speaker 1: and they come back in the second half. They win
- 16:07Speaker 1: by five in a back and forth. The high scoring
- 16:10Speaker 1: Game one twenty five point twenty over Toronto. In Game five,
- 16:15Speaker 1: Cleveland still well, they're still fine. They're up three to two,
- 16:18Speaker 1: not in danger at this point. Game six will be
- 16:21Speaker 1: Friday back in all kind of James Harden twenty three points,
- 16:26Speaker 1: so people say, oh, I played well, We'll get to
- 16:28Speaker 1: that in a minute. Donovan Spider Mitchell added nineteen for Cleveland.
- 16:35Speaker 1: So you know by now how this works, right, you
- 16:38Speaker 1: know by now how this works. A better story on
- 16:41Speaker 1: the Canadian side of the border, so that is where
- 16:43Speaker 1: we are going to go. Had a double digit lead
- 16:47Speaker 1: in this game on the road early in the second half.
- 16:49Speaker 1: Question what went wrong for the Raptors down the stretch?
- 16:54Speaker 1: So Toronto provided a blueprint on how to self destruct.
- 17:00Speaker 1: As we like to say on these parts, quoting Torts,
- 17:03Speaker 1: my favorite NHL coach now hanging out in Vegas. They
- 17:07Speaker 1: team from Toronto sucked at a time you cannot suck.
- 17:11Speaker 1: And that's the whole movie, right there, folks, that's it.
- 17:14Speaker 1: That's the movie. Toronto's young core undergoing a metamorphosis into
- 17:20Speaker 1: a young chore. Scottie Barnes, face of the NBA and
- 17:25Speaker 1: RJ Barrett, the supposed headliners there, both had a quantum
- 17:29Speaker 1: oopsie down the stretch like at the Kentucky Derby. They
- 17:33Speaker 1: tripped there, and the athlete defenders will say they were
- 17:37Speaker 1: both hurt and they were dinged up, and that's that.
- 17:40Speaker 1: And they both did appear to have injuries. However, they
- 17:43Speaker 1: were in the game, and you are judged on your performance.
- 17:46Speaker 1: You don't get a little puffy sticker because you played
- 17:49Speaker 1: hurt and you sucked. Those two combined in the fourth
- 17:52Speaker 1: quarter they took twelve shots. How many of those shots
- 17:55Speaker 1: do they make? One? One? Eight point three percent shooting
- 18:01Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. Now, I never played in the
- 18:03Speaker 1: NBA and I just do an overnight talk radio show. However,
- 18:06Speaker 1: I believe that's not good. Oh you're being mean. You're
- 18:08Speaker 1: being mean, mallor mean, mallor no. I believe that's right.
- 18:12Speaker 1: And that's not a scoring slump. That's that's the offense.
- 18:16Speaker 1: In the witness protection program at this point. So Toronto
- 18:20Speaker 1: did not just run out of gas. They did not
- 18:22Speaker 1: just run out of gas. They ran out of tires.
- 18:24Speaker 1: They should go to tire rack the engine. I don't
- 18:27Speaker 1: know what happened to that. It fell out, the steering
- 18:29Speaker 1: wheels off to the right there on the highway. That's
- 18:32Speaker 1: not good. And the offense in the fourth quarter was
- 18:35Speaker 1: essentially a screen saver. It's kind of floating around a
- 18:39Speaker 1: little bit. They missed, if my math is right here,
- 18:42Speaker 1: they being the team from Toronto, they missed their first
- 18:45Speaker 1: eleven shots of the final quarter, which I don't think
- 18:48Speaker 1: is good. And Cleveland actually looked more like a professional
- 18:52Speaker 1: basketball team. Now, as for the question, every time Cleveland wins,
- 18:57Speaker 1: I get somebody said, well, you were wrong about James
- 18:59Speaker 1: Hard and you said that James I was gonna kill. Okay,
- 19:03Speaker 1: does this wins? Here's not over. So if you know
- 19:06Speaker 1: this is best of seven, best of five. So does
- 19:09Speaker 1: this mean the Calves have solved playoff Harden? No, absolutely not.
- 19:16Speaker 1: They just survived him. Harden had one more point than
- 19:21Speaker 1: you scored in the fourth quarter, one more point, zero
- 19:24Speaker 1: field goals. That's just bearded cardio is what that is.
- 19:30Speaker 1: He got bailed out. Listen, he got bailed out by
- 19:32Speaker 1: the German Dennis Shrewder, who went full Saturday Morning cartoon.
- 19:38Speaker 1: Nobody saw that coming Shrewder, who turned into Mighty Mouse streaming. Here,
- 19:44Speaker 1: I come to save the day from playoff Harden and

- 24:10Speaker 1: All right, We'll get back to it, and let's point
- 24:14Speaker 1: out here that the story. We start with the basketball,
- 24:19Speaker 1: so we'll keep that going here. The story is the
- 24:22Speaker 1: Lakers and the Rockets, because this is looking not that great,
- 24:26Speaker 1: not that great right now for the Lakers, as three
- 24:29Speaker 1: games in a row the Rockets have been clearly the
- 24:33Speaker 1: better team and this has never happened before. And now
- 24:38Speaker 1: the Rockets would still have to win at Game seven.
- 24:40Speaker 1: You know, it's really going to be eight against five.
- 24:42Speaker 1: In that game, the NBA officials will be in the
- 24:46Speaker 1: back pocket of the Rockets, so that's a lot or
- 24:49Speaker 1: the Lakers out, so that's a lot to overcome. However,
- 24:52Speaker 1: there is a path, There is absolutely a path for
- 24:55Speaker 1: this to happen. As the Rockets fell behind early in
- 24:59Speaker 1: this game and then came back and Lebron there were
- 25:04Speaker 1: some long stretches where he looked like an old guy.
- 25:08Speaker 1: And I don't know if he needs to go down
- 25:10Speaker 1: to that pharmacy and get whatever he needs to get.
- 25:13Speaker 1: I don't know. I just I'm sure it's completely everything's good.
- 25:17Speaker 1: He might need to get that shipment from wherever that
- 25:20Speaker 1: shipment comes from and get that all straightened away, because
- 25:23Speaker 1: things are not not looking that great, and he'll Billy
- 25:26Speaker 1: Kobe that was not great either. Later this hour, we
- 25:32Speaker 1: will have the who m I game that'll be coming
- 25:34Speaker 1: up a little bit later. Also, an NBA star called
- 25:37Speaker 1: the D word. The D word. That'll be coming up
- 25:42Speaker 1: a little bit later as well, So we'll get to that.
- 25:44Speaker 1: In the meantime. The people have a lot to say.
- 25:47Speaker 1: A late night drug tester writes, and he says, thanks
- 25:50Speaker 1: for the pro bouncy ball recap. I can see the
- 25:52Speaker 1: flashing lights on the highway for blowing a three to
- 25:55Speaker 1: nothing lead. Plenty will slow down to see the car wreck. Absolutely, yeah,
- 26:03Speaker 1: King Rory says, by the sound of your monologue, the
- 26:08Speaker 1: Rockets have all the momentum. But if momentum doesn't exist
- 26:12Speaker 1: in sports, then the Lakers will close out the series
- 26:14Speaker 1: in Game six. Well, there is no such thing as momentum,
- 26:17Speaker 1: as you know, Because the Lakers had all the momentum,
- 26:20Speaker 1: King Rory, why would they give it up? They were
- 26:23Speaker 1: up three to nothing in this series. The Rockets had
- 26:26Speaker 1: just rode the vomit comet in Game three, choking away
- 26:30Speaker 1: that big lead in the final twenty something seconds, So
- 26:34Speaker 1: why would the Lakers not win that game because they
- 26:36Speaker 1: had all the momentum? Yeah, Fergdog writes in, and he's
- 26:42Speaker 1: never been wrong with the basketball take Fergdog has never
- 26:45Speaker 1: been wrong. Do you know that? Yeah, he says, the
- 26:48Speaker 1: Lakers are cooked. The only way Lebron can save his
- 26:52Speaker 1: legacy is by retiring immediately to avoid having the stank
- 26:57Speaker 1: of blowing a three to nothing series lead on his resume. Yeah,
- 27:02Speaker 1: and get visiting angels on the line. It's time to
- 27:06Speaker 1: put the gramps out to pastor. He says, all right,
- 27:10Speaker 1: very nice, mister Luciato checking in. He is listening live.
- 27:14Speaker 1: He's doing it live there. He's doing his walk so
- 27:20Speaker 1: late late night walk. You're like Mark in Rochester who
- 27:22Speaker 1: walks around overnight, just wandering around. Let's see here. Random
- 27:28Speaker 1: Ryan writes in. He says, I saw you on the
- 27:32Speaker 1: Picture TV earlier today talking about Lincoln Kennedy catching a
- 27:36Speaker 1: snowball to the face and then opening a can of
- 27:39Speaker 1: whoop ass. I've never heard that story while they're still
- 27:43Speaker 1: playing that show, Random Ryan. Buggety Buggety, buggety buggery. Yeah.
- 27:48Speaker 1: So there was a period of time. It was about
- 27:51Speaker 1: it was a long time ago, but it was like
- 27:53Speaker 1: five or six years. I got asked to do a
- 27:55Speaker 1: lot of those documentary that they're called evergreen documentary shows
- 27:59Speaker 1: where they have a bunch of people coming to a
- 28:02Speaker 1: TV studio and they ask you a million questions about
- 28:04Speaker 1: events and then they put them all together. They sew
- 28:07Speaker 1: it all together and it Actually I actually liked those shows.
- 28:09Speaker 1: They're pretty good shows. I've done a few of them.
- 28:12Speaker 1: I haven't done one a long time. I've done I
- 28:14Speaker 1: did the Sports List on Fox that goes back to
- 28:18Speaker 1: the early two thousands, and then there was a series
- 28:21Speaker 1: that I did. There are two other shows that I did,
- 28:24Speaker 1: and I was just like one of many people that
- 28:26Speaker 1: were part of it, and some of those are still airing. Man,
- 28:29Speaker 1: if only I got paid royalties in good shape there,
- 28:33Speaker 1: But no, don't get paid royalties on that, Yeah, Brock says, stunning.
- 28:38Speaker 1: The Lakers, a five and a half point home favorite,
- 28:41Speaker 1: just lost a second straight game to a Houston team
- 28:44Speaker 1: without Kevin Durant. That's from Brock. Yeah, exactly who else
- 28:50Speaker 1: do we have? Joe the ghost Hunter, the Pride of Ohio,
- 28:53Speaker 1: says Kevin Durant and Weed Man should do a Darkness
- 28:55Speaker 1: Weed retreat. Yeah, get together, have a good time. Absolutely,
- 29:00Speaker 1: why not? All right? Anyway, it is the Ben Mahlor Show.

- 30:27Speaker 1: my man, what's been going on with you or Nest? Though?
- 30:30Speaker 5: I did some traveling earlier this month. I was in
- 30:33Speaker 5: Tokyo for the first time.
- 30:35Speaker 1: Yeah, do you like it? The forty nine ers were
- 30:37Speaker 1: not playing in Tokyo, but you.
- 30:38Speaker 5: Still went to I did see a Tokyo Giants game
- 30:41Speaker 5: that was pretty cool. They got smashed by the Hanson Tigers, though,
- 30:45Speaker 5: but oh yeah, did you.
- 30:46Speaker 1: Now there's I've I've never obviously been to a game there,
- 30:49Speaker 1: but I've heard that there's a lot of rhythmic curing.
- 30:52Speaker 1: And there's a lot like you're supposed to be quiet
- 30:54Speaker 1: at times, but then there's rhythmic sturing. Is that correct?
- 30:56Speaker 1: Is that accurate?
- 30:57Speaker 5: That's correct?
- 30:58Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 30:58Speaker 5: You you're quiet, and I believe when your team is
- 31:01Speaker 5: up to bat, and then you're cheering when the other
- 31:04Speaker 5: team is up to beat.
- 31:06Speaker 1: Okay, And how's the food? They they price gouge you
- 31:09Speaker 1: like they do in America when you go to a
- 31:10Speaker 1: game and try to buy like a Nacho's or a pretzel.
- 31:13Speaker 1: I bought a pretzels at the Reds game costs like
- 31:15Speaker 1: thirteen dollars for a pretzel.
- 31:18Speaker 5: That's about yeah, and the food was pretty cheap. The
- 31:22Speaker 5: conversion for the dollar to g in is good. And
- 31:25Speaker 5: then they have these girls running around up and down
- 31:27Speaker 5: the stands and they delivered the beer right to your seat,
- 31:29Speaker 5: which is pretty good.
- 31:31Speaker 1: Solid nice. I like that. I gotta tell I gotta
- 31:35Speaker 1: tell a story though. Ernesto. We had a bet on
- 31:37Speaker 1: the Rams and the forty nine ers, and Ernesto paid
- 31:40Speaker 1: off the bet. He showed up to the meet and
- 31:41Speaker 1: meet in full. And he's a die hard Niner FANL
- 31:43Speaker 1: like here, Nesto. He's one of those guys. When the
- 31:45Speaker 1: Niners go on the road and they take over the stadium,
- 31:47Speaker 1: it's because of guys like Ernesto they travel where the
- 31:50Speaker 1: Niners go. And he this guy paid off the bet
- 31:52Speaker 1: full ram Parafferny, including the shoes, which to me, that
- 31:57Speaker 1: really was the touch or Nesto, when you had the no, seriously,
- 32:01Speaker 1: I mean that's next level man, that you pulled that out.
- 32:03Speaker 1: That was the way to go. And I still have
- 32:05Speaker 1: that enemy hat and so we make another bet. I
- 32:07Speaker 1: still have the merch to pay off that bet if
- 32:09Speaker 1: I have to.
- 32:10Speaker 5: Hope, hopefully someday you'll have to wear it. And I
- 32:13Speaker 5: want to let you know I got my ticket for
- 32:15Speaker 5: Fenway Park and for the Wusas, so be in Boston.
- 32:18Speaker 1: Oh, I'll be awesome, all right, We'll be good to
- 32:21Speaker 1: see Arnesta. We'll have a good time and stay away
- 32:23Speaker 1: from the leprechan Okay, so stay with you all right?
- 32:26Speaker 6: All right?
- 32:26Speaker 1: Thanks to the great ARNESTO. How about that another mallor
- 32:30Speaker 1: meet and greet for Ernest. Though he's been to a
- 32:32Speaker 1: few of them over the years, he's gonna be at
- 32:34Speaker 1: that one. That's awesome. Let's go to Mark, who's hanging
- 32:36Speaker 1: out in the South Bay there where all the cool
- 32:39Speaker 1: people live. Hello, Mark, what's going on? You're on the
- 32:41Speaker 1: Ben Malor show.
- 32:42Speaker 6: Welcome, Hey, what's up Malar?
- 32:44Speaker 7: Hey?
- 32:45Speaker 6: You can get your gloat off tonight. Say give its
- 32:48Speaker 6: credit to the Rockets. They didn't fall down the stretch
- 32:50Speaker 6: like they normally do in these close games. They actually
- 32:54Speaker 6: delivered even though they were doing their best to give
- 32:56Speaker 6: it away for them. Give them credit to Lebron came
- 32:59Speaker 6: up short there on the stretch and uh more poorly
- 33:02Speaker 6: where the hell is uh? Luke Canard I think he
- 33:03Speaker 6: killed him tonight. You're paid a lot of money to
- 33:06Speaker 6: hit threes and give him one point. He's been the
- 33:08Speaker 6: absolute non factor, no show. I expect that to change
- 33:11Speaker 6: before Wait, wait, why would you would.
- 33:13Speaker 1: Expect well, hold said time out, time out? Time out
- 33:15Speaker 1: on the court, timeout time out? Why would you expect
- 33:17Speaker 1: that to change? Luke Canard is a he's like a
- 33:21Speaker 1: he's in the rotation, but he's a back of the
- 33:23Speaker 1: rotation guy. He's a He's just a shooter. That's it.
- 33:26Speaker 1: The guy's not that good.
- 33:27Speaker 6: He played statistically the best three point shooter in the league.
- 33:30Speaker 1: He shot crap. You know that he's not that good.
- 33:34Speaker 1: He's played like seven or not seven. He's played a
- 33:36Speaker 1: bunch of teams. He's bounced all over the place because
- 33:38Speaker 1: he's not that good.
- 33:39Speaker 6: He's not out of mind for a trade. He'd be
- 33:42Speaker 6: that key glue guy that you need, that some lights
- 33:44Speaker 6: out three point shooter. And he's reason why they won
- 33:47Speaker 6: those games in Houston when they were under man So
- 33:49Speaker 6: to me, before I told you last week this year's
- 33:51Speaker 6: would go seven, I actually would like to see a
- 33:53Speaker 6: game seven. I don't think it's going seven. I think
- 33:55Speaker 6: the Lakers are gonna go ahead and smack him around
- 33:58Speaker 6: in Houston. It's gonna be over, nothing to worry about. Actually,
- 34:01Speaker 6: I'd like to go to Game seven because I would
- 34:03Speaker 6: actually be there in ten. Just like last year when
- 34:06Speaker 6: they actually fought the Warriors to go to Game seven,
- 34:08Speaker 6: what happens to them at home? They got smacked by
- 34:10Speaker 6: a inferior Warrior team. So this Rocket team, hey, they're
- 34:14Speaker 6: they're a great bunch of group, but they're not on
- 34:16Speaker 6: the Lakers level. They're gonna get Manhattan, Lady, it's gonna.
- 34:20Speaker 1: Be the Lakers the way hold I s. There's been
- 34:23Speaker 1: five games. The Rockets have played better three of the
- 34:25Speaker 1: five games, So how can you say that they're not
- 34:27Speaker 1: on the same level. And you all you guys told
- 34:31Speaker 1: me Austin Reeves, Hill, Billy Kobe, oh my god, he's back. Baby,
- 34:37Speaker 1: he's gonna get one of these fifty million dollar contracts,
- 34:40Speaker 1: the main one after Shot twenty five.
- 34:44Speaker 6: We'll recap on Sunday when when they go into Friday Night.
- 34:46Speaker 6: I'm telling you right now, he's gonna be take the
- 34:49Speaker 6: take the over. It's it's gonna be the Lakers in
- 34:51Speaker 6: a route, all right.
- 34:52Speaker 1: And you know you'll of course you'll never call they lose.
- 34:54Speaker 1: I know how this works. If they call, if they win,
- 34:56Speaker 1: you'll be the first one online. You'll be like, oh
- 34:58Speaker 1: here I am, get me. If they lose all my
- 35:02Speaker 1: phone stopped working. I had to go out somewhere and
- 35:04Speaker 1: get some doughnuts or something like that. So anyway, thank you. Yeah,
- 35:10Speaker 1: Austin Reeves, the Great Savior, the Great Messiah. The Lakers
- 35:13Speaker 1: took sixteen shots, missed twelve of them, twelve of them,
- 35:17Speaker 1: had three turnovers as well. And this guy mentioned Luke
- 35:21Speaker 1: Canard who missed all four of his shots, played thirty
- 35:26Speaker 1: one minutes and scored one point in thirty one minutes. Man,
- 35:31Speaker 1: that's not even decoy territory is what that is. So
- 35:34Speaker 1: the D word that would be disrespect. RJ Barrett calling
- 35:40Speaker 1: out James Harden for the disrespect. And there's a famous
- 35:46Speaker 1: song we can queue up here, but the Raptors star
- 35:49Speaker 1: RJ Barrett letting the world know that there was a
- 35:52Speaker 1: bit of a scuffle with James Harden and Barrett calling
- 35:55Speaker 1: out James Harden for some disrespect in the game, and
- 36:03Speaker 1: he said, I was asked after the game. RJ spoke
- 36:05Speaker 1: to the media postgame. A news convert address the moment
- 36:09Speaker 1: with Harden. He said, uh, the ball was just by
- 36:13Speaker 1: our bench and he went to pick up the ball.
- 36:16Speaker 1: Barrett and said, obviously I take everything as disrespect. Don't
- 36:21Speaker 1: walk over to our bench and pick the ball up. Okay,
- 36:25Speaker 1: So there you go. Let's I love goofing on Harden.
- 36:29Speaker 1: And that seems like more of a RJ. Barrett issue, though,
- 36:33Speaker 1: So you're not allowed? Is there is there like a
