- 3:09You can call us like I always say 631672318, if you're a
- 3:16nickname, you can't be happy today, you shouldn't be happy
- 3:20for the debacle. We watched last night.
- 3:22It was absolutely demoralizing. I, I was so upset after last
- 3:28night, I was yelling at Speedy. Probably after the game,
- 3:32probably an hour and a half from out the night.
- 3:35Before we we moved on, I took him, I took him home, but we
- 3:39were setting up the studio. Obviously Tommy is Now, our new
- 3:42producer. So it was a lot of shifting, a
- 3:45lot of moving around, a lot of work three, and at three and a
- 3:48half hours. I think it was a long, long
- 3:50time, but we're very happy to be here as we always are Java.
- 3:54How are you my friend? Good man.
- 3:56Just Had Carter's first bullpen. Being back from his PRP and so
- 4:04don't be surprised me. Facetimes me when he was on the
- 4:08shiter. He said, so he said, give me
- 4:10five. And so but no nice to be out
- 4:14watching The Voice play baseball.
- 4:15And you know, the weather's great here been watching a lot
- 4:18of college baseball right now. Just such a fun time for college
- 4:21baseball, and, you know, being able to, you know, watch all
- 4:24these tournaments. I don't like some of the way
- 4:26that the tournaments are set up. And then, you know, I'm watching
- 4:29baseball and I'm watching the next just pee down, write down
- 4:33their leg. And I've never heard that
- 4:35before. Is this guy right now, is this a
- 4:38Nebraska thing? You peed down on your legs, just
- 4:40pee pee right down on your leg is just laying there.
- 4:42I mean, that's not a Long Island thing but you know, it's
- 4:46interesting because you see here and if you're a Nick fan, you
- 4:50watch a game that was up and down the Knicks had a 14 point
- 4:54lead with four and a half minutes left.
- 4:56And you would have thought that the Knicks were going to pull
- 4:58away and when the game but as we always say the New York Knicks
- 5:03are very Shifty and they make you sick to your stomach.
- 5:06So we will get into that in just a few moments.
- 5:08But, you know, it's so funny. It's been raining all day.
- 5:12It's been pouring all day. It looks like a monsoon outside
- 5:15here in Long Island and everybody was talking about.
- 5:18Well, when we going to get rain again, when are we going to get
- 5:20rain again, we having a rainstorm in about three weeks,
- 5:22a really bad one. At least we get a little drizzle
- 5:26here and a little drizzle there. It's bad over here with pollen.
- 5:29I mean, if you're allergic to pollen, you're allergic to
- 5:32Grass. Allergies are killing everybody
- 5:34here, too. It's bad.
- 5:35It's it's seriously. If you look at the pollen right
- 5:38now, if you look at your cars, oh, like on your cars.
- 5:41Oh my God. It's like three layers of it.
- 5:44This year, you can't even breathe.
- 5:45My sister's coughing. Every time I speak to her on the
- 5:48phone, she barely can finish a sentence before she coughs.
- 5:52It's really, really bad. And if you're a long Islander
- 5:55you you're putting on your air conditioning or air conditioning
- 5:59right now. When it's not even hot because
- 6:02you're trying to breathing your house, it it's like a vacuum
- 6:06cleaner of all the crazy stuff in the air.
- 6:09So I just I hate this. Time of year, springtime, I'm
- 6:14born in the spring because it's I'm born in April, but I can't
- 6:17stand this time because of the pollen and I can't stand after
- 6:21the summer when the leaves are falling because then you have to
- 6:23clean all that crap that you have to deal with before the
- 6:27winter time. So my favorite time is the
- 6:29winter because everything's down and all you have to contend with
- 6:31maybe here in Long Island at some point.
- 6:34It's not but we haven't seen a lot of that for a long time too.
- 6:37So do you guys, do you get a lot of snow?
- 6:40We used to not anymore this year.
- 6:43We got a couple of snowstorms but nothing bad.
- 6:45Nothing big. So I unfortunately with the
- 6:49everything that's going on with you know, the change of weather
- 6:52and global warming. It's been really, really bad
- 6:55here in New York and hopefully that will change, but I'm not a
- 7:00weatherman and I'm not going to assume that I can change the
- 7:03weather with a snap of my finger.
- 7:05But if I have the power ladies and gentlemen, and I was God, I
- 7:09would absolutely do it. As a matter of fact, I probably
- 7:11keep The winter all year round. So and then my, my mom always
- 7:15tells me if you want the winter all year round, go to Alaska
- 7:19because but Alaska's, not even cold.
- 7:21All year round. It's six months in a year, I
- 7:24think it's dark and the other six months it's light out and
- 7:27it's the summer is really a summer over there.
- 7:29You, you're getting 80 degree, sometimes 78, degree weather.
- 7:33So unfortunately, I don't get that privilege.
- 7:36Antarctica would be the place. I would have to go where we
- 7:39don't either because we get bipolar, it was 90 degrees.
- 7:41And now, this whole week we're gonna get rain all weekend, and
- 7:44then it's gonna be 60 to 70 degrees.
- 7:47Like so it's like, you can't put away like your switch.
- 7:49It's because at night, and then it's like, you don't figure out
- 7:52like, what it's like, can I put stuff away?
- 7:54Can I put stuff away? Yeah, like It's bipolar.
- 7:57Hey, you'll understand that. When when we get in obviously I
- 8:01was talking about College, college baseball, yes.
- 8:03When we do a CWS one and we'll get you guys down here.
- 8:07You'll you'll see how bipolar this this weather is here.
- 8:11If yours is bipolar where we're in another level because I don't
- 8:15understand this. Whether either it doesn't make
- 8:17any sense, and then when the summer comes around, it's like
- 8:20100 degrees. You're sweating your ass off.
- 8:23And I wish I was dead because I can't do it is here.
- 8:27Oh my God, it's worse. We live right on the water.
- 8:29So, oh, that's true. The worst place to go in the
- 8:32summertime is Florida. And that's why I would never
- 8:35live there. If I had to, if we had to go
- 8:38down there and do the radio show down there, I would be pushed to
- 8:40go and do that, but I would advise anybody that wants me to
- 8:44move down there, you better pay me a lot of money because I am
- 8:47not moving down to Florida unless you do that but he'll do
- 8:50it. Go to eat goody lips, there he
- 8:52could. He wraps himself up with a
- 8:54blanket? 85 degree weather and he says,
- 8:58it's, it's cold. I don't get all the.
- 9:00They literally complain about it all the time, like, on my
- 9:04assistants down there, who's with me throughout my career?
- 9:06And he's like, man, it's like 70.
- 9:08We got like long pants and jackets and I'm like, what is
- 9:11wrong with you? I don't get it.
- 9:12I don't get it. I would definitely not live over
- 9:16there. Unless you paid me a lot of
- 9:18money. Like I said it.
- 9:19Good luck on that. I could never do it and
- 9:22everybody loves Miami. Oh, go to Miami.
- 9:24Go to Sarah soda. Go to one of these nice cities
- 9:27over there in Florida. I don't care where it is.
- 9:30I'm not going in the water and I hate the goddamn Beach, so, and
- 9:33I live on a beach. I mean, Long Island is a big
- 9:36huge beach. It's like eight beaches here in
- 9:39Long Island and I don't get it. I don't go to any of them.
- 9:41So why would I want to move down to Florida and deal with the
- 9:44beach? And the beach life over there?
- 9:45I used to Surf but I don't go in the water anymore because the
- 9:48Sharks that's a whole nother level.
- 9:49Nine o'clock, we will be talking to Memphis Grizzlies play by
- 9:53play. Broadcasters been on a show
- 9:54before, and we're very happy to have him on.
- 9:56Sure, he has his own take on the Memphis Grizzlies this year.
- 9:59Eric hasseltine, he has been awesome on our show.
- 10:03So if you haven't heard him and you want to hear him, well, you
- 10:07better listen to him on, not at 9:00, he is Sensational, great
- 10:10personality knows his basketball, and I'm sure he has
- 10:13his own take of the Knicks, absolute debacle last night,
- 10:15which was absolutely crazy. Speaking of the Knicks in game,
- 10:19one of the Easter we go Conference Finals.
- 10:23The Knicks lost to the Pacers and overtime.
- 10:25After having a 14 point lead with two minutes and 51 seconds.
- 10:29Remaining in the game, there was a controversial call with the
- 10:34Knicks up by five with under 30 seconds to go overturning a foul
- 10:39originally called against OG&E which led to the Pacers
- 10:43three-pointer OG. Then missed a free throw leading
- 10:48to Tyrese Halbert. And he gained tying budget
- 10:51beater, which almost look like a game winning shot, as we all
- 10:55watched on, and I'm We had our hearts watching them choke
- 10:58himself. There was also a goaltending
- 11:01call in overtime that was missed, which would have put the
- 11:06Knicks up by six, instead leading to the Pacers.
- 11:09Starting a seven, nothing run with a three pointer guard,
- 11:14Aaron Nesmith, hit 8 3 pointers in the game, a Pacers franchise
- 11:19record. That was the first time out of
- 11:23978 NBA playoff games ever. A team held a 14 point lead with
- 11:29under three minutes to go and lost the game.
- 11:32Well, ladies and gentlemen, if it's the Knicks breaking records
- 11:35that want to make you sick. Well, there you go.
- 11:38Ladies and gentlemen and absolutely made me sick Reggie
- 11:42Miller Kool in the game sitting there laughing.
- 11:44Tyrese Halbert have to hit in that shot at the end of
- 11:47regulation. China choke himself and making
- 11:50himself look like Reggie Miller when he played the Nixon.
- 11:54I think it was a 1993 nothing. King made any Nick fan happy
- 11:59watching that debacle of a game and then shouldn't you get home
- 12:02field advantage, like, home court advantage with the with
- 12:05the bounce and then they give it to Halliburton, like, what are
- 12:07we doing? I'm gonna get into the home
- 12:09court advantage. Because home court advantage
- 12:12doesn't work in the New York Knicks Minds except the New York
- 12:15Knicks fans that are absolutely lost after that game.
- 12:18Here's the facts. I watch every single Nic game in
- 12:22the playoffs. Every single one of them in the
- 12:24last 25 years. I haven't missed one playoff
- 12:27game in 25 years, and it doesn't matter where the Nicks are for
- 12:34some reason. The NBA don't like them, they
- 12:36don't like them. I really believe that nobody
- 12:39over there, when it comes to the commissioner, the vice president
- 12:43of basketball operations, like the New York Knicks, because for
- 12:48some reason, They put these referees in charge of these
- 12:52games and you wonder if they're actually giving the Knicks home
- 12:57court advantage, usually the home team has the advantage, not
- 13:01the New York Knicks, not in Madison Square Garden as loud as
- 13:04the fans and how crazy the fans are and how the NBA really
- 13:07promotes New York basketball for some damn reason, the New York
- 13:13Knicks, never get the call. And how did they but Errol?
- 13:16How did do they do? They pick like in Speedy, you
- 13:19may know this better than I do from the basketball side of it.
- 13:22Do they pick the referees for postseason based on valuations
- 13:25through regular seasons. They were out but I don't know
- 13:30exactly how the NBA is doing it now.
- 13:32I mean, it's been like that for years but again you don't know
- 13:36what Adam Silver with the lja is running, as far as the
- 13:40organization and the the league because the lja is decided, so
- 13:45many different things that make you shake your head is actually
- 13:47watching a lot of redraft just a Ago.
- 13:50And watching a team like the Mavericks win it after there was
- 13:54a chance of what was a chance 1.8% 1.8?
- 13:58Yeah. 1.8% chance that they were going to win the number one
- 14:00draft pick and they get the number one draft pick.
- 14:02Why? Because Luke Cage doncic is
- 14:04playing with the lja, LeBron James over there.
- 14:07The association is working in his favor, but honestly, getting
- 14:12back to this game, it's despicable it's despicable,
- 14:16watch it. Call Anthony towns.
- 14:17Everybody says, well look at the game.
- 14:18Look at the numbers Karl, Anthony towns had in game one.
- 14:22And this is what you want, your big man Superstar to have.
- 14:25Here's what I don't like about Karl.
- 14:27Anthony towns when it comes down to a big shot.
- 14:30First of all, why is he shooting 14 a 40 50 foot jumpers at the
- 14:35three-point line? Why does he need not standing
- 14:37behind the line and shooting a normal. 3-pointer it doesn't
- 14:41make any, he's not Steph Curry. Okay, he's not.
- 14:43And he's got to stop believing that he is because every single
- 14:47time I see this guy pick up, Get a pass over there 6 7 feet
- 14:52behind the three-point line and he's chucking up threes and 90%
- 14:55of the time they don't go in and then this guy gets fouled and
- 14:59he's a 92 or 93%. Free throw shooter and he misses
- 15:03Big Shots, the free throw line in the fourth quarter.
- 15:06It doesn't make any sense and every single time I see this it
- 15:11just it reminds me of the 94. Next.
- 15:14It's a look, the bad luck. The 94 Nicks had against the
- 15:19Rockets, this isn't even the finals and I watched that New
- 15:22York Knick team up three to two make.
- 15:25So many common mistakes that this team has done really
- 15:29throughout the playoffs. Look at what they did against
- 15:31Detroit, look at the games against the Celtics, the games
- 15:34that they lost against the Celtics, they were getting
- 15:36crushed and getting demolished. Even the games that they won
- 15:39coming back from 20 points, that is Despicable, you are a great
- 15:44defensive team, you got, you got a great player and oh, Jen and
- 15:48Opie OG plays an Unbelievable defensive game throughout the
- 15:52Celtic Series in game six and then all of a sudden in a game.
- 15:56Number one, he disappears defensively.
- 15:58I gets a Pacer team. That's a show of what the
- 16:01Celtics are. They are, they're a shallow,
- 16:03what the Celtics are? They're a good team.
- 16:04They were the hottest team right now going into the playoffs in
- 16:08basketball. The Pacers are they're very well
- 16:09coached with Rick Carlisle. They've got this guy Nest Smith,
- 16:12who probably nobody knows who he is, unless you watch the Pacers.
- 16:16Here's this Celtics draft pick at the Jeff hated at the time.
- 16:19Yeah. And this is a guy that was what
- 16:21fourth or third in the league in 3-point percentage, but nobody
- 16:25realized that until he was hitting three-pointers after
- 16:27three-pointer. After three-pointer in the
- 16:28fourth quarter, it makes you sick to your stomach, it really
- 16:31does. And then you look at the
- 16:33pastry's team as a whole This is not a very good roster.
- 16:37Nobody thinks that this all around is a better roster than a
- 16:41New York Knicks. And when you have Mikhail
- 16:43Bridges and then Jalen Brunson, and by the way, Jalen Brunson,
- 16:46why are you getting into foul trouble?
- 16:48You don't play defense, why are you defending anybody?
- 16:51Why are you out there fouling different people?
- 16:54Now some of the fouls were uncalled for and what they were
- 16:57doing at Jalen Bronson throughout the game was
- 16:59Despicable, the referees should have been calling flagrant.
- 17:01Fouls, there were times in the game that guys were elbowing
- 17:04Jalen Bronson and they were getting away with it.
- 17:07They hit him in the neck. They hit him in the face at
- 17:10least three times in the game. No flake grandfathers were cold
- 17:13and you have Tyrese Albert on the sidelines, talking how great
- 17:16Mitchell Robinson is, but he forgets that his undercut, the
- 17:21under guy over there, their best player in jail and Bronson.
- 17:24So I think the game was absolutely terminating him and
- 17:28every point of the offensive part of the game, the only
- 17:31problem with the New York Knicks is pretty simple.
- 17:33The Knicks, when they get these big Beats or they, they put
- 17:37themselves in a great position or they have a good rotation.
- 17:40And when they had guys, look McBride on the court, in the
- 17:44fourth quarter, when they were up, 14, why would you take
- 17:46McBride out? Why would you do that?
- 17:49It makes no sense, you're up 14 with three minutes left to the
- 17:53game. McBride's, playing great
- 17:54defense. Halton has not done anything in
- 17:57the fourth quarter, really? And then you take him out to
- 18:00replace him with Jalen Brunson. Who doesn't play a lick a
- 18:02defense. I'm not saying Jalen Bronson,
- 18:04he's in a part, a big part of his team, he's the captain of
- 18:06the team, he's the best offensive option, but when
- 18:08you're up for teen, why even worried about the offensive side
- 18:12of the ball played defense, your lady was nice.
- 18:14That's what we talked about on coaching watching by field and
- 18:17watching the game. Like I 100% agree with you at
- 18:22that point. It's like okay, you know, he's
- 18:24in foul trouble. You're a 14.
- 18:27Why like, let's not mess up with what we got even though your
- 18:31captain and your best players and in their But you're still
- 18:35up, 14, why why would you change that?
- 18:37And that goes to kind of what we talked about, right?
- 18:40Stop with is he doing the? Like hey, they have to go in at
- 18:46this time. And what have you, or you just
- 18:48watching the game and be like play it by feel like if they get
- 18:50in with ten then? Yeah.
- 18:52Okay, probably make a change. But right at that point, I 100%
- 18:55agree with you. Like, what are you doing?
- 18:57What first of all, you you don't, you should never ask Tom
- 19:00Thibodeau to play it by field. Because if he plays it by feel,
- 19:04he'll keep every single player. He's starting lineup in for the
- 19:07whole game. Oh, 48 minutes, the guy makes no
- 19:09sense. His rotation makes no sense.
- 19:12Mitchell Robinson should be out there a lot more than he is it.
- 19:16None of it makes sense. I know he has a Love Fest for
- 19:19call Anthony towns and Jalen Brunson.
- 19:20They're important pieces to the team.
- 19:22They don't play a lick a defense, both of them.
- 19:25Don't play a lick of defense and you have guys like McKell
- 19:28Bridges who gets himself in the foul trouble.
- 19:30Makes no sense. Oh no, B.
- 19:32Who at some points? I wonder if he's even playing in
- 19:35the game. He completely disappears in
- 19:37certain games when he showed talented and then when he's
- 19:39getting hot, what is what is like a guy like Tom Tipper don't
- 19:43do. He brings Kayla Brunson back
- 19:45when you have a hot player, shooting the three and doing the
- 19:48things that he's been doing in the fourth quarter, which he
- 19:50hasn't done, it, the whole game because Jalen Brunson hugs, the
- 19:53ball. That's the facts Jack, that's
- 19:56why the Knicks never move the ball when he's on the court.
- 20:00It's the Jalen Brunson show. Now, he's much better than
- 20:03Carmelo, Anthony, he is much better than he is.
- 20:05He hits big shots. He's big game J, whatever they
- 20:08call him. Big game J on the, what's the
- 20:11show that they have? I don't know what the other
- 20:12roommates, the roommates today as we know, Josh Hart calls and
- 20:16big big game. J.
- 20:17That's what, that's what all the guys on that.
- 20:19Show that go on the show, that's what they call them.
- 20:20I that's great, he's a great great, big time shooter.
- 20:25But when it comes to the big time parts of the game, when the
- 20:29Knicks need defense, he don't play a lick of it and they need
- 20:31that defense. If they expect to be this
- 20:34Patriot team that's young. One can go up and down the court
- 20:37as fast as any team right now. In basketball, they don't give a
- 20:41crap and they have nothing to lose.
- 20:42They have nothing to lose right now.
- 20:44They know they could be the next.
- 20:45They beat them last year. Yes.
- 20:47The Knicks were 100% healthy and they're healthier this year, but
- 20:50they know they can beat him. And you have guys like Tyrese
- 20:53halburton, who is a cartoon character, he's dancing, he's
- 20:56SpongeBob SquarePants, he's dancing around prancing around.
- 21:00Holding his neck every time he hits a big shot, he's telling
- 21:04the New York Knicks to go, kiss his ass.
- 21:06I mean this is what this guy does and if Knick fans want to
- 21:09shut this guy up, go out there and beat him go out there and
- 21:13shut his mouth up. Don't go out there after the
- 21:16game and while you're on social media and Tick Tock saying, oh,
- 21:20if he ever walks out there and we see him in public, we're
- 21:23going to beat the hell out of him.
- 21:23You think he cares, this guy's making millions and millions of
- 21:27dollars. He doesn't care what the Knick
- 21:29fans say, as long as the Knicks, get knocked out of the playoffs.
- 21:32And he's the reason why they do that, he don't give a crap.
- 21:35So New York Knicks fans stopped going on social media, and
- 21:39giving him a reason to make jokes and laugh and put it on
- 21:43the little board over. There in Indiana or in their
- 21:46locker room saying look what I'm doing to the next dance, poke
- 21:50poke poke I'll tell you what Tyrese Albert and did that, he
- 21:53shouldn't have done, he poked the bear and we all know when
- 21:57you poke the bear, it's not a good thing.
- 21:59And we know after the New York Knicks game and game number
- 22:03five, the Knicks were not happy. Children Bronson was not very
- 22:06happy. Josh Hart was.
- 22:08Absolutely, he was upset Beyond I've ever seen Josh Hart upset
- 22:14and what did he do at the press conference?
- 22:16He said, listen, if we play like that, we don't deserve to win.
- 22:19We're gonna go out there. We're going to be a different
- 22:20team after this game. You saw Jalen brunson's face,
- 22:24Not only was he shocked, he was upset.
- 22:27He didn't even want to stay up there and answer any of the
- 22:29questions and when you see a player like that and you see
- 22:32somebody like Jamie Jalen Brunson and he's the captain of
- 22:36the team. What do you think he's going to
- 22:37do? After that press conference?
- 22:38He's going to go into that locker room and he's going to
- 22:41shut the door. They're going to have a team
- 22:42meeting and it's not going to be Happy team meeting Tom
- 22:45Thibodeau. He is a lot quieter than it used
- 22:48to be. I I don't know if anybody knows
- 22:50Tom Thibodeau, I don't know personally, but I remember with
- 22:53the Chicago Bulls, when after he lost the game, he go out there.
- 22:55His face would be read screaming at the Press.
- 22:58He wouldn't he couldn't finish his sentence before he's
- 23:02mocking, everybody. Not yesterday.
- 23:04He was comic Collective. He was upset.
- 23:06He said listen, we are the better.
- 23:09He pretty much said, we are the better team.
- 23:10We choked at the end of the game we gave that game up and that
- 23:15could cost a series or get my team back into this series and
- 23:19let them realize that we're not gonna just run through this
- 23:22team. It's, this is gonna be all the
- 23:24way to the end. This is gonna be a race.
- 23:26This is, this is a marathon not a gonna happen.
- 23:29And, you know, in five five games, it's not gonna happen.
- 23:32Probably, six hands, it could happen in seven games.
- 23:34I just think that the Knicks need to understand something.
- 23:37This patient is not going to go away.
- 23:40They're not going to go away their aunts, that's what they
- 23:42are. And what is Aunt?
- 23:43Do they They protect the queen and when Rick Carlyle is out
- 23:47there, speaking to the referees and calling and that guy you
- 23:51want to talk about an energetic guy at the press conference.
- 23:54Go watch his press conferences, that guy's crazy.
- 23:57And you can see the way his team plays they played just like him.
- 24:02He goes out there and he says, I don't give a crap, my team's
- 24:05gonna go out there. We're gonna play hard hard nose,
- 24:08basketball Olde, Tyme basketball.
- 24:09And if you beat us, you beat us fair and square.
- 24:12That's the way he goes out and plays the game, and that's what
- 24:15you want to see the Knicks do. But if Tom Thibodeau does not
- 24:18fight firewood fire, and he plays these baby games and lets
- 24:22this cartoon character, go out there and embarrass the Nicks on
- 24:26their home floor. This series could go this series
- 24:29could go and five. I did.
- 24:31He needs to wake up. They need to go and game.
- 24:32Two, they need to show up on Friday and not even make this
- 24:36game close. They win it by double digits,
- 24:38and they make sure they know that.
- 24:40When we go back to Indiana, it's not going to be one of those
- 24:42ears, easy series at home. We're a better home.
- 24:45We're A Better Way team than we are at home.
- 24:46Yeah, you also look at the way that they're offensive
- 24:49structure, too. Like, obviously, they're one of
- 24:51the fastest Pace teams in the league.
- 24:52Yes, pun intended. I'm not gonna go crazy with it.
- 24:54Like Josh did on his show, but they play at one of the highest
- 24:57rates in the league. There was seventh ranked offense
- 24:59in the league. It turns offensive efficiency.
- 25:00And like, you were saying with Neymar one of the biggest
- 25:02offensive 3-point shooting prowess.
- 25:04We've seen between them hard Halliburton, Benedict Mather
- 25:08because you threes like they have a lot of guys, even Turner
- 25:10for a big man is one of the better ones in the league is
- 25:11shooting free. So the Knicks had to realize
- 25:13that when it came to the defensive matchups late in the
- 25:15game, and they just didn't do it enough.
- 25:17I had a problem. When we were talking about the
- 25:19Celtics blowing out the Nixon game, three, they were not
- 25:21guarding the top of the key, threes whatsoever.
- 25:23I saw a lot of that problem coming into effect in this game
- 25:26too. And I think the rotation like
- 25:28like we were talking about earlier with bringing Jalen
- 25:30Bronson. If you're gonna bring Bronson
- 25:31and take towns out like, you could have done that, put
- 25:34Robinson at five, put OG at the force.
- 25:36So, Robinson's not going to the perimeter.
- 25:38He's rotate the defense a little bit more.
- 25:40I don't get it. Why isn't playing do you think
- 25:43though? Mitchell needs to play more than
- 25:4520 minutes a game. Yeah, and I also don't think he
- 25:48should be switching as much on the perimeter because he got he
- 25:50got toasted in overtime and late in the fourth quarter against
- 25:54guys, driving to the hoop, that's how the Pacers were.
- 25:56You know how you know, Mitchell Robinson is healthy?
- 25:58You know how he's healthy because he's going out there at
- 26:01the perimeter and he's defending the point guards, he is all over
- 26:04the place. Now that's how you know Mitchell
- 26:07Robinson's 100% healthy because when Mitch is healthy he's all
- 26:10over the place he's jumping he's running all over the place
- 26:13that's what you want to see a young big man do you know play
- 26:17and he is 27 years old, he had a major injury last year was out
- 26:22for a significant amount of time.
- 26:23He comes back, he the first two weeks him back.
- 26:26He's played very, very light basketball and now finally he's
- 26:29got his legs under him. This is when you want to see.
- 26:32Mitchell Robinson, take over games.
- 26:34I don't want to see call Anthony towns out there in the fourth
- 26:36quarter. I want to see your best
- 26:37defensive player out their rebounding, offensive,
- 26:40rebounding, and getting into these guys faces making sure.
- 26:44They know remember Tim Hardaway, Jr.
- 26:45Against the Detroit Pistons when every time Mitchell Robinson was
- 26:49out there at the, you know around the perimeter or even at
- 26:52the free free throw line, free throw line when he's standing
- 26:55there, waiting for the free-throw to go up.
- 26:58He's talking to Tim Hardaway, Jr.
- 27:00Getting him pissed off. He's getting into their heads.
- 27:02That's what Mitchell Robinson is good at.
- 27:04He gets into people's heads and that's why he is an important
- 27:08piece to their defense. The anchor of where this defense
- 27:11could go. And that's they want to be a
- 27:13champion if they want to win a championship Mitchell.
- 27:16Robinson needs to be Mitchell. Robinson.
- 27:18And do you like it? Do you like them switching on
- 27:21the perimeter too? Know that's like the switching
- 27:25defense is good with the wings because the wings are versatile
- 27:28enough to make it work. Josh Hart can defend a three and
- 27:31maybe sometimes a smaller for if he has to OG he could defend a
- 27:34two three and a four. Like those are the switches you
- 27:36want to have not Mitchell Robinson go out on the perimeter
- 27:39where he looks like, Rudy go like the Rudy gobert in the past
- 27:42too, with with Utah team. Did this to the playoffs all the
- 27:45time? Switched him on the perimeter
- 27:46Phoenix did it very well, the Clippers did it very well with
- 27:50Kawhi Leonard and Paul George like that.
- 27:51That's the matchups. You don't want because Rudy
- 27:54gobert did not look as good in the perimeter.
- 27:55It makes a Robinson was the same kind of way and he got toasted
- 27:58in the end of that game on defense and yes the minutes we
- 28:01were talking about yes should be a lot higher Mitchell.
- 28:03Robinson should be playing the five a lot more specially since
- 28:05he's done better hitting his free throws now and there's a
- 28:07rule in place now where You can actually pick your free, throw
- 28:11shooter that the Knicks found a loophole in with the MBA rule
- 28:14book. So Mitchell Robinson if as long
- 28:16as he's not have the ball in his hands, they could pick a
- 28:18different free throw shooter for that, kind of thing.
- 28:19So that was the matchups that they have to pay attention to
- 28:22and I don't think they did enough of it in the game.
- 28:23I would have played this the how I would have played the end of
- 28:26the game if you want to bring bronze this video, hold on.
- 28:28So is that with the like the hacker Mitch?
- 28:30They can pick. If he doesn't have the ball
- 28:32doesn't have the ball in the bounding?
- 28:33Yeah, that that's what. Okay, loophole that they found
- 28:35later in the series against the Celtics, when the Celtics were
- 28:37doing it a ton in game two, they were, they, they found that
- 28:41loophole. Now, what I would have done,
- 28:43this is the roof. If you're gonna take, put
- 28:45Bronson in the last five minutes, take Talent out because
- 28:47he's not as good defensively Robinson plays, the five.
- 28:49Then OG at the four, then you have McBride In the game with
- 28:52the two with heart at the three, like half a defensive line or
- 28:55Bridges at the three, have a defensive lineup like that where
- 28:57you could guard the perimeter, if you're up 14, it doesn't
- 29:00matter. That's the point, shut it.
- 29:02Even if Mitch is playing, it doesn't matter how to Mitch
- 29:06hack. This hack at that, it doesn't
- 29:08matter if he's on the Lord as long as you're up 14 and they
- 29:11got the defense and they can rebound the ball.
- 29:13That's all that matters. I don't want to hear about well,
- 29:16they need Bronson on the court, they need call Anthony towns on
- 29:19the court. They don't need offense.
- 29:20That's the problem with the Knicks.
- 29:21They are always trying to compile points.
- 29:24Compiling points against the Pacers are not going to work
- 29:27because we seem Rick Carlisle, do that with the Dallas
- 29:30Mavericks that Dallas Mavericks, when they won their
- 29:33Championship, you know what made them so good.
- 29:35It's their team defense, that's what they did.
- 29:38That Jason Kidd, they had jerk, even jerk.
- 29:41Nowitzki played a some kind of Defense.
- 29:43That's what they're going to need.
- 29:44They had players that could defend the perimeter and rebound
- 29:48the ball, that's why Dallas beat Miami.
- 29:50And if the Knicks planned to be this young Pacer gritty team and
- 29:54you want to stick it right up, Mr. Tyrese, halpern's ass.
- 29:58This is what you got to do. You got to put Mitchell,
- 30:01Robinson on, Tyrese, Albert Burton, and he need a foul, his
- 30:04ass. And let him know that I am not
- 30:06going to let you go up there for an easy layup.
- 30:08I'm not gonna let you go up and shoot an easy three, you're
- 30:11going to feel every single time. My wrath, if you do that, who
- 30:15cares, if he sells out, it doesn't matter.
- 30:17You need that aggressive plate. Then Nick's got a play
- 30:21aggressive because that's what the Pacers are going to do
- 30:22against the next. I'll do you one better Errol Not
- 30:26only would. I have Mitch help out on every
- 30:28single thing that he's coming on down in the drive and give him a
- 30:31hard foul. I'd have Deuce McBride.
- 30:33Follow him around the court, the entire night and not let him
- 30:36breathe, pick them up full court, this is what needs to be
- 30:39done. And then when he gets tired, you
- 30:41put bridges on him. And then when he gets tired, you
- 30:44put someone else on him and you make him work so hard.
- 30:46That he's a sieve defensively. Because that's, I mean, look
- 30:50Bronson already destroyed him. It was 41 points he and it
- 30:55wasn't a hard for 40 one and then I think he got tired late
- 30:58in the game, that's my worry right now these minutes are
- 31:01piling up Townsend, shots were consistently short in overtime
- 31:05and that's why they were missing and late in the game.
- 31:08That's not what you want to see. That's tired legs that you
- 31:11don't, that's why you're short. That's the last thing is a team
- 31:13you want to see happen at this point in the year they need to
- 31:16keep it going for another three. So weeks to have that energy
- 31:19with those legs. So I'm a little worried in a
- 31:22shootout with them but again, Let's just play better defense
- 31:26because defense was not played last night and I'm 100% with
- 31:29you. No reason for towns to have been
- 31:31out there at that point in the game, when you could have put
- 31:33Mitch in there, you could have had found a way to make sure
- 31:36they wouldn't switch Mitch on to like, you know, the top of the
- 31:39pick and roll or something, you know, he just needed to be
- 31:41because Carlisle smart, you said it like Carlisle, he knows the
- 31:45game inside and out, he's got to get, like, he's a champion.
- 31:48He's a champion. He knows how to get a guy like
- 31:51Mitch out of his way, if you're not careful and they got him out
- 31:55of his way when he was in. So tips didn't really have an
- 31:57answer. He's like, I'll just go in my
- 31:58five guys were winning anyway. I mean there was a stat Earl
- 32:00that the Knicks were a 99.96% chance to win that game with a
- 32:05couple of minutes left. That if that's what it's going
- 32:09to take, Tom. Brady, like, Pacers to win.
- 32:11Brady like, if that I think it's actually worse, if that's what
- 32:14it takes for the Pacers to win. I still like the next chance is
- 32:18this series. I think a lot of people, I think
- 32:20a lot of People like the Knicks chances in this series here
- 32:23because you watch the Knicks play as good a basketball as we
- 32:26see in the next play. In a fourth quarter, they played
- 32:28very well until the last five minutes of the fourth quarter
- 32:31and they didn't even need Jalen Bronson to help them do that.
- 32:34Jalen Brunson was an odd on the court when the Knicks went on
- 32:37that, why was it 12/1 run or 12-2 run?
- 32:40And and it was Ogden and Obi, it was Miles McBride.
- 32:45It was these guys, the guys that were secondary players, right
- 32:49behind Jalen Brunson that were taking over the game.
- 32:52Oh Jen and Opie did not have one of his better games but in the
- 32:55in the fourth quarter when you needed oh to hit a three he hit
- 32:58a three when you need an OG to go up there and dunk the ball,
- 33:01he dunked the ball. That's what you want to see.
- 33:03Aggressive type of playing and I want to see more of Karl.
- 33:07Anthony towns going to the hole, not shooting up, 60, foot
- 33:10jumpers. I don't get Karl Anthony towns.
- 33:12Everybody looks out of his line of scoring.
- 33:15Wow, he had a great game. But guess what guy's when it
- 33:18came down to the big parts of the game was Call Anthony towns
- 33:21really playing. Well, the answer was, no, he
- 33:24wasn't playing well and when Jalen Brunson isn't on the
- 33:27court, you expect Jailyn a guy like Karl Anthony towns to take
- 33:30over the game and he can't he's not that type of player.
- 33:33And I've said this many many times and you guys remember
- 33:36this, I said the most important player on this team is Karl
- 33:39Anthony towns. Did I not say that?
- 33:40I've been saying that for a very long time and here's the reason
- 33:43why I think Karl Anthony towns is more important than Jalen
- 33:46Bronson, and every single one OG and an Obi is because Karl.
- 33:50Anthony towns has one thing that Nicks have not had in such.
- 33:53I don't even remember last time the Knicks had it.
- 33:55They have a big man that is very athletic that can go to the
- 33:59hole. Shoot threes and get fouled, and
- 34:02go to the free throw line and shoot 92% at the free throw
- 34:06line. Could you remember a New York,
- 34:08Knick player or big man that's ever done that?
- 34:11I've got one who and it was like a year and a year and a half of
- 34:15poisonous before he got hurt and was on and off.
- 34:17Let's not talk about that. Let's never talk about that
- 34:21idiot. Let's not even.
- 34:22That was the hope though, like, we want to always wanted that
- 34:25guy. They were trained.
- 34:26Ironically, same draft, same draft, ironically, and they won
- 34:29games at the end of the year and got a worst draft position.
- 34:32You know, this is like the New York traditional my favorite
- 34:34teams, end up screwing themselves that way.
- 34:36We ended up with towns anyway, and he's a flawed player, but he
- 34:40has so much talent and he does things that other teams can't
- 34:43stop. So as long as we make them a
- 34:45weapon and not a liability, how do you make him a weapon?
- 34:48How do you make him a weapon? And I'll tell you, saw it in
- 34:51that run, right? You have him taken up space and
- 34:54you have the other forwards and wings handle the ball and hold
- 34:57go to the hole and draw fouls, you're a big.
- 35:01There's nobody on that team. He's alive, though.
- 35:04He was a stretch five, he's the best shooting outside shooting,
- 35:07big, man, that's fully by far. But if you at look what he did
- 35:11against the Celtics and game, four game, six, look what he
- 35:14didn't game six, what did he do? That was so important in that
- 35:17game was go to the hole and draw a house.
- 35:19That's what Well, Jalen Brown got into foul trouble.
- 35:22Why? Because at points he had to
- 35:24shift over to the call Anthony towns, and try to defend them.
- 35:27That's how we got to default drawing that shot, though.
- 35:31That's when teams have to play up on him in the perimeter and
- 35:34then he can blow by them and then he can do that too.
- 35:36But he is not that great with his back to the basket, but if
- 35:40he's sitting in a shot in then being able to to get in and
- 35:45Validate what he's doing, where they have to come pressure him
- 35:49then he's better at that drawing fouls but I just don't think
- 35:52he's that great with his back to the basket of trying to get in
- 35:55and draw, fouls like that. I just one thing that could
- 35:58solve this team that they are facing and I don't know if they
- 36:01can pull it off because it didn't look good when they tried
- 36:03it last series when they play them both together when they
- 36:07play Robinson in towns together because theoretically, they
- 36:11should cover each other's weaknesses with their strengths.
- 36:13For Robinson can Rim. Protect when towns can't, Towns
- 36:18can do the outside shooting and the more of the offensive game
- 36:21and Robinson can just get layups and Ally.
- 36:23Oops, that's all he needs to do on offense.
- 36:26He hasn't worked yet. Jamie Lee in the comment
- 36:29section. I said that's what surprised me
- 36:30the most antibody team giving up on defense at the end of the
- 36:33game. Yeah, they they did and they
- 36:34never adjust top tip of those defense hasn't been good with
- 36:37the Knicks for two years. This has been a really bad
- 36:40defense leading down up and down.
- 36:43I mean for tip for Thibodaux is bad because he's always been
- 36:46that guy, right? He was the defense coordinator
- 36:48of the Celtics championship teams when they face Kobe with
- 36:52kg, when that came to this team fish, with tip it.
- 36:56Okay to this team. This team was a top five defense
- 36:58for almost three years, top five.
- 37:01It was that good of a defense now you had OG in a noobie
- 37:04McKell, Bridges and Josh Hart and you have Mitchell Robinson.
- 37:09You have four Elite Defenders and I'm sorry Myles, McBride,
- 37:13too, whose really an elite Defender.
- 37:15At the point guard position, you have five guys that could defend
- 37:19multiple positions and you're letting this pastry team, run
- 37:23all over you. When you have a 14 15 point lead
- 37:25with Minutes left of the game embarrassing on your home court
- 37:29in front of all those great movie stars.
- 37:31The next Knicks, jumping around. By the way, I don't want to see
- 37:35John Starks anymore, I don't want to see him anymore because
- 37:39as much as I love you, John. I remember nothing more than
- 37:43those 17 breaks and game seven against the Rockets.
- 37:48I don't want to see you out there.
- 37:49I don't understand, but it felt like 17.
- 37:52There's a second most brilliant. It was 17 in my I was a third
- 37:55most bricks ever built in New York basketball, Julius Randle,
- 37:58second Benson's. First, it was embarrassing and
- 38:00it's embarrassing. By the way.
- 38:01Carmelo Anthony never won with the Knicks.
- 38:04Stephon Marbury never won the Knicks.
- 38:06Patrick Ewing never won with the next go on a jar Smith was
- 38:10there. Never one with the Knicks.
- 38:12Give me a praise. I don't, I showed JR Smith when
- 38:16I went to commercial. I was like, isn't that JR?
- 38:18Smith Speedy, it was dead right there.
- 38:20Look, who's face? I don't understand.
- 38:25I could care less. Hey Ariel, one of our one of our
- 38:29guys at regular listener. My boy Tommy, he was just like
- 38:32he literally was like stay out of felt trouble.
- 38:35And that's on Tibbs exactly what you said.
- 38:37It's like why in that aspect, you bringing him in.
- 38:40And I agree with you guys at 100% on on that aspect.
- 38:44This this is a little bit probably on Tibbs more so than
- 38:48some of the little bit of that plate towards the end of the
- 38:51game. Mmm.
- 38:53Oh yeah. Again, you look there's many
- 38:56different adjustments that I think tiptoe could have made in
- 38:58the timeouts but again at the same time like they're on the
- 39:00players too. Like I think the lineup was bad
- 39:02the way they did it but I think when you look at the adjustments
- 39:06is guarding the primer, you can let them get inside baskets for
- 39:08two so you could follow them. You could do other things.
- 39:10If you're getting beat on the three you don't want to have
- 39:12them. Come back with threes.
- 39:13That's why this scenario was so rare first time in 978 games.
- 39:17I don't 14 point lead was blow. I don't even care how many
- 39:20games, and how many playoff series there have been.
- 39:23Since this has happened, it doesn't really matter.
- 39:25Here's the problem, it happens only to the Knicks.
- 39:29It only happens to the Knicks just struggling up there.
- 39:34Yo, struggling it, only, I shot him.
- 39:37Yes, he was. I was standing right in front of
- 39:39my 65 inch TV in my my living room and I told Speedy, with
- 39:43three minutes, I'm sorry. Five minutes left in the game.
- 39:46When they were up 14, they're gonna lose this game.
- 39:47They're gonna lose this game. I don't even want to watch this.
- 39:50I'm pacing back and forth, and as every single Three went in by
- 39:54Nesmith. I was telling speedy, this get
- 39:56this game is over. I'm telling you how Burton's
- 39:58gonna hit a game winner and we're gonna watch this team,
- 40:01absolutely choked. And what happens?
- 40:03He practically hits a three, he practically.
- 40:06And by the way, what are the chances that something hits off
- 40:09the rim? 15 feet in the air and folds in
- 40:13and it just got a perfect spin on the ball so you can shoot but
- 40:18that's like impossible game thing.
- 40:21You should. You should only get that at
- 40:23home. Not on the road impossible.
- 40:25I have a check. Isn't gonna go eight for nine
- 40:30from three again, this year's I'm pretty confident saying that
- 40:34that was ties of Pacers record. Yeah, it doesn't mean she's
- 40:38Right? I'm not worried about that, I'm
- 40:41worried that they don't play enough defense and that they
- 40:44don't, you know, they get themselves into foul trouble,
- 40:46and they play dumb games. I'm not even when I'm worried
- 40:48about. You know what?
- 40:48I'm wearing it. If they don't, if they say,
- 40:51their foul trouble, they're better team.
- 40:52They just got to play defense. I'm worrying about, I'm worried
- 40:55about them, watching them them. Go down the way they did in game
- 40:59number one and it's caught in their brains.
- 41:01And if they go up at any point in the fourth quarter, it's
- 41:05gonna be in their minds that they're going to lose the lead.
- 41:07And that's what happens. That's what I mean.
- 41:10That's the Celtics series though.
- 41:12What was what game did? They have a big lead like that
- 41:15they had? Doesn't look at that.
- 41:17Was the first time all play. What was the game?
- 41:19It's the exact opposite. They were they were getting
- 41:22blown out, then they come back and he's one and two, the
- 41:25Celtics series. Now, a little taste of their own
- 41:27medicine coming back on him. I I better be a freaking wake up
- 41:31call because if I think you're a Nick fan and that's what a Nick
- 41:36fan would say, it's better be awake up call.
- 41:38I don't think Think it's a wake up, wake up call for the New
- 41:40York and they all played them the whole game, except for the
- 41:42last six minutes, I've seen this before.
- 41:44What are you, what are you guys blind?
- 41:45You don't remember some of the games that we've seen in the
- 41:47past and I think what arrow is getting, it is the Pacers had a
- 41:49clutch identity too. They came back down 10-3 times
- 41:51again, look at what they did against the Cavaliers, the
- 41:53Cavaliers were the best team in the East all season long.
- 41:56They go in to Cleveland and absolutely completely turn them
- 42:00over the Cavalier. Finch know, this series was over
- 42:03after Albert and hit that three-pointer and game one, it
- 42:07gets the series was over. And what did he do in game one
- 42:10against the Knicks. He hit practically the same shot
- 42:12and it went in even though it took him to overtime and the
- 42:15next had a chance to to stop that choking Sensation that he
- 42:19had. And the fourth quarter at the
- 42:21problem is and I see it from you.
- 42:23You're a Nick fan and all the Knick fans out there.
- 42:26Oh, I listened to Josh's Show game on before I was show and he
- 42:30says, listen I still have, I still believe that where the
- 42:33better team? I still think we have enough to
- 42:35beat this team. Here's what I think, I don't
- 42:38think. Anything.
- 42:39Because the word think always comes into my vocabulary when I
- 42:43think about the Knicks think, think, think, think think think,
- 42:46think, and when that word comes up in any Nick's mouth, it means
- 42:49they're gonna lose. Think think, think about it,
- 42:52they always lose. And that's what bothers me about
- 42:56this team and the way they lost in game was a different team.
- 42:59No, it's not. No, it's not, they haven't done
- 43:01this. They haven't had a fate that
- 43:04keep a lead like that. This team is a better team than
- 43:06the Pacers. They are better at all.
- 43:08Remember you said that, I remember you said there's a
- 43:11position that they have a starter.
- 43:12That's not better than their guy on the bench.
- 43:14Maybe we could talk about it but out in the front Court I think
- 43:18cats better than Turner I think OG's better than well let's say
- 43:22Yoji has some trouble with siakam but I thought OG and
- 43:25siakam they'll play to a draw. I think know each other.
- 43:28They obviously know each other very well from Toronto days.
- 43:32Look Bridges is better than whoever, they got Hearts better
- 43:35than whoever they got and runs into better than Halliburton.
- 43:39That's how I see it and that team should win.
- 43:41You know, and you know how I almost did.
- 43:43You know how I see it the Cavaliers by far?
- 43:45We're better than them. They were the Knicks would have
- 43:48taken care of. It matters to the Cavaliers were
- 43:50that much better than they were. And what happened to the
- 43:53Cavaliers in that series. They lost.
- 43:55They lost. They lost the problem.
- 43:57Okay, no problem. I, I'm gonna tell you this right
- 44:00now, the next better show up in capability.
- 44:01It'll be two, two heading back. And then gonna take five at home
- 44:05in a blowout and then just rain on their parade in six and in
- 44:09Indy. This is a true giant fan.
- 44:11This is a true giant family, ladies and gentlemen, this is a
- 44:14guy and this is a guy, this is a guy that never ever turns on his
- 44:19team. But here's what I'm gonna say, I
- 44:21don't care if I'm a Nick fan, I don't care you multiple teams
- 44:24that you like, multiple what am I what?
- 44:28Cause I like Philadelphia because I grew up in what, what
- 44:30else? I'm a Nick fan.
- 44:32I'm a Yankee fan. I'm a Yankee fan to have two
- 44:35teams know. I don't.
- 44:36You just changed hockey teams over the course of his life.
- 44:39I'm yeah. But well no I first of all I was
- 44:4111 years, older, 12 years old, when I became a Florida panther
- 44:45fan because I was a vampire book fan.
- 44:47And when he went to the Islanders, I became an island of
- 44:50fan. I've been an Islander fan really
- 44:52since I was 15, 16 years old. I feel like Errol kid, people
- 44:56our age. And I'm gonna love myself in
- 44:58with you because I'm feeling old as hell.
- 44:59I think we used to be more only team fan type guys.
- 45:04I think you outlier when we were growing up but nowadays I think
- 45:09kids are like you where they follow players a lot more
- 45:13players. I followed one player, two
- 45:19players did McNabb. Did Van bees Brooke and was two
- 45:21of your first of all. First of all, I was at Donovan,
- 45:24McNabb fan. Because when I was a kid, I
- 45:26watched college football. And for some reason I was a
- 45:30Syracuse fan Growing Up. So when Donovan McNabb was
- 45:33coming up from high school and I heard about him, I became a big
- 45:36fan of his and I said to myself wherever he goes where Every
- 45:39he's drafted, I'm gonna route on for that team, and then in the
- 45:42Jets were always bad. They always saw the show for the
- 45:46record, by the way, we should get nithin on getting him on.
- 45:48I will say this Donovan. McNabb was this close of joining
- 45:51our show when we were at the Super Bowl.
- 45:53He passed us and he was this close and Donovan McNabb.
- 45:56I've interviewed him before. I met him in Miami at the Super
- 45:59Bowl and he was so gracious because every he had a big huge
- 46:03bouncer, guys. He was you, she was like six
- 46:05foot eight and he was pushing people away.
- 46:07And as soon as he walked past me and I gave him a couple of
- 46:11numbers that I remember him in Syracuse, he turned around, he
- 46:13smiled at me, and he just turned out and he turned around and
- 46:17started speaking to me and I had a picture with him, we spoke
- 46:20about 15 minutes and I'm like, where you going man?
- 46:22And he says I'm getting the hell out of here.
- 46:23I don't want to deal with the people so and that's a true
- 46:26story about Donovan McNabb. I love Donovan McNabb but I
- 46:29didn't follow players. I followed I am saying like you
- 46:32you follow your favorite team had favorites, I did but I was a
- 46:36favor player I just the team. It's not the name I was at
- 46:41number I was just fan but I was at Donovan McNabb fan I was a
- 46:45Jet fan and I can understand why the Jets could do something like
- 46:49that to you. Who was it?
- 46:50You know who my favorite Nick was all time.
- 46:53It was Charles Oakley. It was Charles Oakley, he was my
- 46:57favorite Nick of all time and my favorite team growing up out of
- 47:00all the sports was the Knicks. It was in it.
- 47:02I was a hockey player and it was the Knicks.
- 47:04I was a die-hard Nick fan. I bled, orange blue and white.
- 47:10That's what I bled. Oh, my eyes.
- 47:12I used to take that, like, Baseline turnaround fade away
- 47:16the Ewing tried to do and stop because one of the most
- 47:19overrated, New York Knicks of all, but he was, he was still 20
- 47:24and 10, let's face. It was for a very long time.
- 47:27Stop this, stop stop with this, Patrick, you and crop.
- 47:33If I saw a Patrick in front of me right now, I would do this
- 47:36for. I would mock him like Tyrese
- 47:39Halpern. I would grab my neck and say, he
- 47:41was a choke artist because that's only was I loved Patrick
- 47:45Ewing, but I don't want to hear from Netflix, big man, the next
- 47:48of our hat. That's a lie.
- 47:50That's a lie. Remember Willis Reed.
- 47:51Does anybody remember him? Come on, guys, even the busher
- 47:55was Practically what 6869 or something around.
- 47:58He was a better beat man and those times that was a big man.
- 48:01I would say, I would say, to buscher was a better place, it
- 48:05doesn't matter. I just I'm tired of hearing.
- 48:07I'm not disagreeing with possibly devotion being better
- 48:09because the busher is the whole thing.
- 48:11So, so cute. He's a Hall of Famer know, I
- 48:14know. But like, we're arguing Hall of
- 48:16Famers, Hall of Fame on. I don't everybody's a whole Fame
- 48:19in the NBA now, Everybody goes to the hall.
- 48:21That makes you sick, it makes you sick everybody.
- 48:23I mean right now practically the whole leaks, the Hall of Famer
- 48:26every single one of those LeBron will make sure JJ radical get
- 48:30the Hall of Smith is gonna be a Hall of Famer because he he hit
- 48:33eight out of nine every night as well.
- 48:36Be give me a break. I mean it's crazy.
- 48:38I mean there's there's some guys that are there's a guy that I
- 48:41think is a Surefire Hall of Famer Errol.
- 48:43That didn't get the MVP for some reason.
- 48:46This year freaking believe that. That's what I think.
- 48:50That's what I think. I think I think great great
- 48:54segue though. Yeah, good work.
- 48:55Figure the figures with the New York Knicks and everybody that's
- 48:59probably listening to us right now and saying this guy's nuts.
- 49:02Your Nick hater know I'm not a nicator.
- 49:04I'm an honest, Nick fan. And I'm just telling you guys
- 49:07when you hear you think that worries me, that worries me
- 49:11Knick fans, when you hear any Nick fan like Mr. Fishermen over
- 49:15there says I think I'm very confident, they're going to win.
- 49:20Six, you're just making shit up. You said, I think that's what
- 49:23you said. Oh my goodness.
- 49:25I think you took a six letters that changed my entire.
- 49:29You said I think. Did you not?
- 49:31I said I was very confident. No you didn't use those barely
- 49:35beat that 0.040 to beat them with three minutes left.
- 49:40This is having pocket aces and four of a kind and getting beat
- 49:44with the royal flush on the last call.
- 49:46Now we're gonna play with that happened.
- 49:48One, 17 lifetime. We just saw This is what your
- 49:53basketball games that ever happens.
- 49:55This is what I want to do any more better and Joker.
- 49:57That's what you gotta get off this before.
- 49:58Yeah. Joker should have been MVP in my
- 50:01opinion, Chris Alexander won an NBA MVP award this past week.
- 50:07Yes, it was yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, beating Nicola
- 50:10yokich and Giannis for that wonderful award shy got 71 out
- 50:15of 100, first place votes, while yokich got 29 of them shy also
- 50:21got 913 total votes compared to yokich with 787 and Giannis 480
- 50:27to spy finishing second in the nvp voting, no kids joins, Bill
- 50:31Russell, and Larry Bird as the only three players to finish
- 50:34first or second in MVP, voting five consecutive years shy.
- 50:39Was the 10th player and NBA history to win an MVP when
- 50:43leading the league in scoring and leading his team to 60 wins.
- 50:48Nine of those 10 players won NBA nvp.
- 50:52Ease with the loan, exception being calm alone, winning an MVP
- 50:56over, Michael Jordan in 96 and 97 That season jokic finished
- 51:03the season with a triple double averaging 29.6 points per game.
- 51:0712.7 rebounds per game and 10.2 assists per game.
- 51:11Should I finish the season? We're 32.7 points per game, five
- 51:15rebounds per game, and 6.4 assists per game.
- 51:18By the way, congratulations to Shai Alexander.
- 51:21I'm not going to take any shots at the kid, very well deserved.
- 51:24I love the care. I love everything about his
- 51:27story coming from Kentucky. A guy that really wasn't even
- 51:31the Superstar over there when he was there.
- 51:32A lot of people were questioning if the guy was gonna transition
- 51:35into the NBA the way he did. So it's an amazing story and if
- 51:40you know anything about chai Alexander's, a Canadian player
- 51:43and a lot of Canadians that come into the NBA are really not
- 51:45successful. They really not.
- 51:47Could you name the last Canadian that went in and VP the answer?
- 51:52Steve Nash. What's the last one?
- 51:54He's the only one. He was the only one out of from
- 51:58Canada, that's one in MVP and he won two of them.
- 52:01Shai Alexander has a chance to win three.
- 52:03Maybe even four of them. He is a special player but I'm
- 52:06sorry. Yokich was the best player in
- 52:08the NBA all season long. I'm not gonna, there's no
- 52:10question that he was to average a triple double as a big man and
- 52:14the way he did it in a western conference that is more
- 52:17impressive than scoring 32 points.
- 52:18And but you brought this up, girl.
- 52:21It's what the, the NBA or the LGA, however, you want to call.
- 52:25LJ is, they didn't want to give it to him, like, how do you not
- 52:30give a guy? That is a big man, averaging a
- 52:34triple-double. Because he's already got his
- 52:36MVPs right? And as you've have you stated on
- 52:39the show plenty of times and you're 100% right, because you
- 52:42call it. It's like he should get another
- 52:45one. But they're not going to give it
- 52:46to him because they want this this other Avenue of a guy which
- 52:51challenge Do he's a great player dope.
- 52:54What he did for his teammates, buying them all Rolexes, like
- 52:57good for him. Like that's awesome because it
- 53:00shows that he understands how important his teammates are
- 53:03whether he's doing it for to show face or that's who he is.
- 53:06I don't know him as a person, so I can't speak on that, but it's
- 53:10great. He did that to his teammates.
- 53:12But I agree with you 100%, you called it from the beginning.
- 53:15When we started talking about this, that he was going to get
- 53:17the MVP. But yokich is the best player
- 53:20when you average a triple double in the standards that he's doing
- 53:23it position that he's doing it. Without a doubt, like he's gonna
- 53:27be in the conversation every year because we haven't seen a
- 53:31big man like that. Do what he does.
- 53:33He's the greatest big man. We've seen really since Tim
- 53:37Duncan honestly if you go back at the positions, that both of
- 53:41them play and obviously he's a plays, a five, Tim Duncan played
- 53:44the four and five, but Tim Duncan revolutionized the game,
- 53:46the way he did as an anchor Defender.
- 53:48And he was just, he was born to watch, but he did it so well.
- 53:52Okay. He made the, he made the bank
- 53:54shots sexy. Yeah.
- 53:55He made everything sexy because he always won.
- 53:57And if you ask Greg Popovich, when was the last time Gregg?
- 54:01Popovich want a championship you can't remember because Tim
- 54:04Duncan was on that team and I'm sorry.
- 54:06Craig Popovich was only as good as the player that he coached
- 54:10and that was Tim Duncan as far as I'm concerned.
- 54:12You'll get just the best player in the NBA.
- 54:14There's no argument to that. I think Shy absolutely believes
- 54:17that too. The fact is, the NBA has been
- 54:20doing this for a long, long time.
- 54:21This is this is factual. The NBA is not going to give
- 54:24these guys back to Back to back MVPs, because if that was the
- 54:28case, LeBron James should have won five of them in a row.
- 54:30Michael Jordan should have won 10 of them in a row.
- 54:33Michael, Jordan was by far the best player in the NBA for like
- 54:3610 or 11 years straight. And if Michael Jordan didn't
- 54:39retire the two years after his father died.
- 54:41He probably wins. Seven eight.
- 54:43Maybe even nine championships in a row.
- 54:45The guy was unbelievable. The greatest basketball player
- 54:48of all time, Shai Alexander, he kind of is unique on the game
- 54:52and the way he plays the game, he's a great offensive player.
- 54:55He reminds me a lot like an offensive, Kobe Bryant.
- 55:00The guy can do everything on the best football card.
- 55:02You shoot threes. We've seen you Fade Away threes.
- 55:05The guy is an absolute offensive phenomenon.
- 55:08He's also an unbelievable Defender.
- 55:10I think people forget how good shy is defensively, Kobe Bryant
- 55:15was a great two-way player. Michael Jordan was a great
- 55:18two-way player. Shai Alexander when he came into
- 55:20the leak. Nobody knew how good is
- 55:22offensive game was gonna transition there, his game.
- 55:26Really coming to the NBA. And as why he was such a high
- 55:28draft pick, was this defensive style of game and why do you
- 55:32think guys, like, Calipari, actually recruited him?
- 55:35It wasn't because of his offensive side of the game.
- 55:38It was his defensive prowess and look what?
- 55:40He's turned out to be. We've seen players come into the
- 55:43league and transition their games.
- 55:44We mentioned the spider when he came into the league.
- 55:47He was a defensive player. Louisville battino Pino
- 55:51recruited him because of his defensive prowess, when he came
- 55:54to the NBA and he was drafted 13th or 14th.
- 55:57The next wanted him, when he came into the league, he
- 55:59transitioned his game at Utah to an offensive style of game.
- 56:03He kind of took away from the defensive side of the game and
- 56:07transitioned into that style of NBA game that a lot of these
- 56:10players are playing now at Kauai Leonard when he came into the
- 56:14but do you think they value defense when they come into the
- 56:17league as much as you? Because you're not going to get
- 56:21like of course there's a lot of great Shooters in college that
- 56:24are just going to be either Underside or not.
- 56:25They can have to be in the NBA with defense.
- 56:27It usually requires a lot of Athletics, here's the problem,
- 56:30here's the problem, we mentioned Karl Malone, okay Karl Malone
- 56:34never played a lick of Defense. Anybody watched the Utah Jazz in
- 56:37the olden days where it was anybody?
- 56:39A Utah Jazz fan. He never played the mailman,
- 56:42that's why they called them. The male, does anybody know why
- 56:44they call them the mailman? I actually watched Utah because
- 56:47that's where my dad, because he delivered.
- 56:49That's right, he delivered. And he never delivered a
- 56:52championship. That's what I always said.
- 56:53And John Stockton was one of the greatest point guards of all
- 56:56time that people don't, I was a jet motorcycle fan.
- 56:59Well, I was basically get it into him and her kick it out to
- 57:02harness now. Yep.
- 57:04Yeah, that's what I was. I did like Jeff hornacek until
- 57:07he coached in New York Knicks then I couldn't stand.
- 57:09I couldn't look I couldn't stand looking at him.
- 57:11Okay look I agree with Java. I think great offense beats
- 57:18great defense in the NBA like you can hit a really hard shot
- 57:21over. Someone playing Perfect Defense.
- 57:23That happens all the time in the NBA.
- 57:25So I think when they draft they're always looking for
- 57:28offense first but defense super duper important in the scheme.
- 57:32Shai Alexander has shot 52% from the field this year and he's a
- 57:383-point shooter and he shuts 37 and a half from three, but you
- 57:41know, how many shots were that close to the rack compared to
- 57:44the average person? Jalen Brunson who has a great
- 57:48shooting percentage shoots 48.9 That's how good Alexander was
- 57:53this year, shooting the ball. So the reason why you got to
- 57:56give him this award, is he just hit every shot?
- 57:58That's not like the award. He would hit every shot.
- 58:01Compared comparatively look a great interior guy is going to
- 58:05shoot like 60%. When was the last time?
- 58:08When was the last time you seen a player, get a triple double,
- 58:12and not win the MVP? I know.
- 58:14Well, I mean, Russell Westbrook, James Harden off both, those
- 58:18players won the nbp and by the way, they weren't, even a
- 58:21leading scorers of the league when they won the MVP.
- 58:24So don't give me that crap. That's why he deserves it.
- 58:26Don't give that to me. A triple dollar is awesome.
- 58:29Here's the thing though. You know the reason why he got
- 58:32it over why is that isn't just a stats because you always give
- 58:36the MVP to the team on the historic team.
- 58:38That's a great amount of great 68 wins.
- 58:41It's a great compared to 502. You're giving it to the guy on
- 58:45the 68 win team if it's closed and that's how it's been in the
- 58:49NBA forever. They've always done that.
- 58:51So what so fish, what what does MVP mean then?
- 58:55Well that's that's the great debate, right job everyone to
- 58:59your team because like if it's most value team, it's yokich
- 59:02because without yokich that team wins, 20 games, I mean, Porters
- 59:06washed up. So you Murray's good, every
- 59:08other game Russell Westbrook on the MVP, right?
- 59:11What's his team? Not both seasons that he had, it
- 59:13doesn't matter when he won an MVP was his team.
- 59:15The best team in the NBA. No, no, well, I think it's big.
- 59:19I think, hey, you just said I would have voted, right?
- 59:22I'm just trying to be the devil's James Harden, try to
- 59:25explain it. I'm just saying, was James
- 59:28Harden. What was he had?
- 59:30Was he on the best team when he won the MVP know that's a bunch
- 59:33of? Well Chris Paul doesn't get
- 59:36hurt. Yeah the Conference Finals
- 59:39school ball and over the big ass fuck ass freaking donkey we all
- 59:45know that was the that was better than the finals that year
- 59:48kids, Chris Paul, and James Harden on that Houston team
- 59:51verse that Steph team. And that was I think Durant was
- 59:55that that was the really close series and then, Chris Paul blew
- 1:00:00out his hamstring and then it was a walk-off, right?
- 1:00:03It was like nothing, there and hardened didn't show up game
- 1:00:06seven. It was over.
- 1:00:07Just like every other four that happened they were even man.
- 1:00:11I think hardened had the ability to win that year, if he if Paul
- 1:00:14stayed healthy maybe but James Harden, What could Should even
- 1:00:19if you just saying I'm tired of hearing this Alexander dropping
- 1:00:24points, a game. Sell this C2.
- 1:00:27Whoever you think doesn't know basketball, that's a bunch of
- 1:00:30crap. And for you to think, for one
- 1:00:33second, you'll get shouldn't have won the MVP.
- 1:00:34Just shows you how much you want to lick his ass, right?
- 1:00:38Speedy. I'm not looking anyone's ass,
- 1:00:39but I'm all back. I will.
- 1:00:41I will reference the comparison with Russell Westbrook's, triple
- 1:00:44double your, that he did win and like Russell Westbrook's, triple
- 1:00:48double here. I know people were saying LeBron
- 1:00:50at the time, and for the third candidate, he was, but people
- 1:00:53were saying, look because Russell Westbrook was doing it
- 1:00:55in a very, I guess, inefficient way for an MVP.
- 1:00:58You could just do it again. A hyper efficient way for heavy
- 1:01:00for an MVP candidate. Anyone, that's where I think
- 1:01:03the, the voters missing. Now, I had some very efficient
- 1:01:06stats and I bet he had on the show month ago mentioned.
- 1:01:09I'm not doing anything, really insane for the amount of volume
- 1:01:12that he's shooting, but you could just between the true
- 1:01:14shooting percentage is between the efficiency he had with, with
- 1:01:19Light is some of historic numbers for for a big man that
- 1:01:22you haven't seen probably since Bill Russell and Wilt
- 1:01:24Chamberlain, like it's crazy. The numbers he was putting up
- 1:01:26and he's averaged a triple-double.
- 1:01:28The fact that anybody puts and I'm saying this Shai Alexander
- 1:01:31in the same conversation as Larry Bird is Despicable, okay.
- 1:01:34He is not Larry Bird and I have one season putting up these
- 1:01:39numbers and that's fine. I'm not saying that Shai
- 1:01:41Alexander is not great and he had a great season last year.
- 1:01:43He's a great offensive Talent. He's great defensively.
- 1:01:45He wasn't the best player in the league.
- 1:01:48He wasn't. Let me ask you guys a question.
- 1:01:50If shy doesn't play on OKC. Do they make the playoffs?
- 1:01:56Yeah, I think they don't. Yeah.
- 1:01:57Okay, let me ask you this question.
- 1:01:58If your kitchen was not playing on the Nuggets, do they make the
- 1:02:03playoffs? Know, they're a lot of Team.
- 1:02:06They're a lot of team. So what when you look at these,
- 1:02:10Kind of things that I'm kind of expressing to compare and
- 1:02:12contrast these players. Who would you take as your MVP
- 1:02:16knowing that if it's me answer the question answer the goddamn
- 1:02:21question. Just spit it out.
- 1:02:23Just Fish. We would we try to catch you
- 1:02:26with Hulk? Does it?
- 1:02:27You want me to throw the worm in the water?
- 1:02:28I mean, seriously. Again, it was just win this over
- 1:02:37shy. I've said that for a week.
- 1:02:39I'm just trying to tell you why he won because obviously because
- 1:02:43of the NBA feels differently than us, because if it was
- 1:02:47because that's 71 first place votes that went, so that 67
- 1:02:51would be two thirds, it's more than 2/3 of the league, that
- 1:02:54feels that way. And that's why I came up with
- 1:02:56Errol is the shooting percentage and the fact that he was the
- 1:02:59best player on the team with the best record here, you just gave
- 1:03:03it. I had to come up with a
- 1:03:05reasoning because I couldn't find one.
- 1:03:06That's the I'm trying to find sports show.
- 1:03:09I got this through the conversation, he just agree with
- 1:03:12each other. There's my reasoning.
- 1:03:13I think the NBA is lame. I think the NBA knows who the
- 1:03:17best player in the league is and they're really robbing the best
- 1:03:20player in the league for an award that he should have won
- 1:03:23every single. Year for the last past, five.
- 1:03:26Six years, it's disabled. That's exactly what we were
- 1:03:29talking about. And Speedy said, the same thing
- 1:03:31that's in every sport. What does nvp mean most?
- 1:03:35Because as as we just stated and what we agree on in fish, being
- 1:03:41The Devil's Advocate, because we don't talk about stuff, we all
- 1:03:45agree on there, has to be some laws.
- 1:03:49I don't want to be similar. I understand.
- 1:03:50No, not at all, but it comes down to exactly what does that
- 1:03:55truly genuinely. I'm gonna tell you, but as we
- 1:03:59said, Without. Joker, they're not.
- 1:04:03There are lottery pick, they're not, they're not even in the
- 1:04:06playoffs shy, they probably get it.
- 1:04:07They still probably get 60 to 62 wins.
- 1:04:10Probably, I don't know about 662.
- 1:04:12I think they went about 45, 43, somewhere around there.
- 1:04:16They have a good team. They have a very good roster,
- 1:04:17hornstein is a good big man. We've seen how good he's played
- 1:04:21for them. He's been a real really big
- 1:04:23anchor and one of the best off-season acquisitions
- 1:04:26throughout the league. I will say what MVP should be
- 1:04:30called. It should be called MVC most
- 1:04:33valuable chump. That's what it should be called
- 1:04:36because that's what the NBA is selling to us us as fans being
- 1:04:41Chumps. That's what we are.
- 1:04:43We are, we actually have to see you and believe it.
- 1:04:47I'm a chump. Screw you out of silver lja.
- 1:04:51Go to hell, LeBron James? You idiots.
- 1:04:53Go to hell out Lakers Luka doncic and all you Peabody
- 1:04:59bastards the L sorry. Lja.
- 1:05:02What a crap. Top five Awards, go crap but we
- 1:05:05dealing with look a lot different obviously.
- 1:05:06LeBron will give the MVP to himself his son's.
- 1:05:09Number two, I have lost JJ Redick.
- 1:05:11Number three, Nico Harrison's number four and no clue and
- 1:05:15Kyrie. Irving's number five, I'm tired.
- 1:05:17I'm tired. I argue this all the time
- 1:05:20because this is what the NBA does.
- 1:05:21To me. I want to believe that the NBA
- 1:05:24has a reasoning behind something, but the only
- 1:05:26reasoning that comes to my head every single day that I think
- 1:05:29about it, is LeBron freaking James.
- 1:05:31He goes to his barbershops. He invites all his sickos.
- 1:05:34And I mean, sickos, you, anybody knows what I'm talking about.
- 1:05:37The P Diddy's of the world and the, you know, he just telling
- 1:05:43the truth here. I have, we've seen him hang out
- 1:05:46in the barber shop as we all know, and they like to talk
- 1:05:49about things on on camera, but after the camera, they're
- 1:05:52talking about something else. That's all he's in the
- 1:05:54Illuminati Arrow. I don't want to even say what I
- 1:05:58Really think there until and a lot of disgusting.
- 1:06:01Let's let's maybe keep that for like I just I'm just trying to
- 1:06:05be honest. Fans, if you're listening and
- 1:06:08I'm sure you are. I'm just being honest.
- 1:06:10I'm an honest guy. You probably hate it.
- 1:06:12Anyways, the Thunder dominate. The Timberwolves 114 to 88 to
- 1:06:16take a one-nothing series lead in the Western Conference Finals
- 1:06:20after the Timberwolves led by four at halftime the Thunder.
- 1:06:24Outscored the Timberwolves by 26 points in the second half, the
- 1:06:27Thunder had four players with double figures while the
- 1:06:31Timberwolves just had two including Julius Randle leading.
- 1:06:36The team with 28 points. Anthony Edwards was fine 50,000
- 1:06:40dollars for using profanity during his post-game interview
- 1:06:44Edwards. Used the F-bomb, when
- 1:06:47complaining about the fact that he only took 13 shots during the
- 1:06:52game Edwards, just had 18 points, nine, rebounds, and
- 1:06:55three assists in game. Number one, little us.
- 1:06:58Here's what I'm going to say about Anthony Edwards.
- 1:07:00Stop talking and just play, because every time you speak, it
- 1:07:06makes, Me want to hurl everything that you say
- 1:07:09everything that you do as a leader of this team shows, your
- 1:07:13non-leadership skills after the game, you don't want to take
- 1:07:17responsibility. You want to blame everybody else
- 1:07:20and you want to say that you only have 13 shots.
- 1:07:22How about this? You want more than 13 shots?
- 1:07:25Get in position, so you can get a shot.
- 1:07:28Stop trying to dunk the ball, stopped dancing and prancing
- 1:07:32around the referees when you get fouled and crying the river,
- 1:07:35like, Karl Anthony towns. That's why you guys your
- 1:07:37buddies. That's why I call you to Timber
- 1:07:39bullies. That's what you are.
- 1:07:41You're a bully. That's what you are, Anthony.
- 1:07:43You don't want to take responsibility when you want to
- 1:07:45be the fit. You don't want to be the face of
- 1:07:47the United States basketball, but you want to take
- 1:07:49responsibility when you're not getting the bowl and you want to
- 1:07:53say that you're not getting a ball, and that's why you team
- 1:07:55didn't win, you, you didn't win because you're not a team
- 1:07:57player. If you actually step back and
- 1:07:59realize what team means, it doesn't mean Anthony Edwards.
- 1:08:04The Timberwolves as a team, Does not mean Anthony Edwards.
- 1:08:09And by the way, Alex Rodriguez, where the hell are you?
- 1:08:12When you have a player with this kind of confidence, we all know,
- 1:08:16Alex, you wear a great player, you're one of the greatest of
- 1:08:19your era and you know, you've got to step back as a leader and
- 1:08:23an owner of a team after that game.
- 1:08:24We're watching that debacle The Game and pull Anthony, Edwards
- 1:08:27to decide and say, listen, you haven't won, nothing, buddy.
- 1:08:29I was the best player in the league for over 12 years and I
- 1:08:33didn't win a championship until I went to the Yankees and it
- 1:08:36took me five years to do that with guys, like Java cable and
- 1:08:40Derek Jeter and all those bullies over there in New York,
- 1:08:43I've had to save the ball. I'm just saying it.
- 1:08:45You gotta be a champion, and if you want to be a champion and
- 1:08:49you got to be a champion, you gotta find a way to be a leader,
- 1:08:53and you going up there and cursing and prancing, when all
- 1:08:57these kids are buying, your jersey, and buying your sneakers
- 1:09:00and doing that. In front of the press shows, you
- 1:09:03you're not mature enough to be here in the NBA making millions
- 1:09:06and millions of Dollars. I love the fact that he's come
- 1:09:09out and said that he doesn't go out there and spend his money on
- 1:09:11nice jewelry. And by, you know, these crazy
- 1:09:14cars that he's saving his money, because he doesn't want to go
- 1:09:18broke. I love his, his whole demeanor,
- 1:09:20when it comes to saving money and trying to be a professional.
- 1:09:23What I don't like about Anthony Edwards is I don't like his
- 1:09:27bragging. I don't like he calling coming
- 1:09:28out and talking about how much money is making through
- 1:09:31endorsements, and how much him as a player and has, as he moves
- 1:09:36forward as a player, he can make, I am become a billionaire
- 1:09:39before the age of 30. I don't want to know about that.
- 1:09:42All I want to know, is what do you gonna win a championship
- 1:09:44when you gonna lead your team to a finals and actually have a
- 1:09:48chance to win a championship? Because we see it back-to-back
- 1:09:51years and we might see it back to back, here's where you're
- 1:09:54going to lose. And I'm gonna say this, I got to
- 1:09:57give a shout out to Julius. Randle.
- 1:09:59I gotta give a shout out to this guy because as a New York Knick
- 1:10:03this guy. Oh hold on you're you're hold
- 1:10:05on, you're calling him by his name and not the bricklayer.
- 1:10:07I'm gonna say this I'm gonna say it when I watch it.
- 1:10:10I'm I'm an honest guy and I watch the game.
- 1:10:12He is as a Nick fan has always called them and I'm one of them.
- 1:10:17Call them the bricklayer. I gotta give him credit when
- 1:10:21this guy has been a laughing stock here in New York because
- 1:10:24he doesn't show up to playoff games and in the big games and
- 1:10:26he loved to throw Jalen Brunson under the bus and say that he
- 1:10:29was the better player on the team.
- 1:10:30He's gone out there. He's been a team leader over
- 1:10:34there with the Timberwolves and he's played well and he's I
- 1:10:37think he's really transition into a team leader over there
- 1:10:41with the Timberwolves. You would expect that.
- 1:10:43Anthony Edwards is the leading voice of that locker room.
- 1:10:46It's not it's Julius Randle, and it's crazy.
- 1:10:49Because after the game when they're interviewing Julius
- 1:10:52Randle, Julius Randle says, we got to play better.
- 1:10:55Me, I gotta play better. I gotta get these guys to play
- 1:11:00better. If I play at the top of my game
- 1:11:03and they're playing at the top of their game, there should be
- 1:11:05no reason why we shouldn't win. And by the way, Julius Randle is
- 1:11:09a comedian. He likes to make jokes and you
- 1:11:11can see him and Anthony Edwards at the press conference.
- 1:11:13But Julius Randle is not going to go out there and cursed, use
- 1:11:16the F-bomb and things like that, that shows the in the, the
- 1:11:20maturity of, of Julius Randle. It shows the non maturity of a
- 1:11:25guy like, Anthony Edwards and I, it just bothers me because I
- 1:11:29don't know if the Timberwolves will ever get over.
- 1:11:30The hump with this guy is their leader.
- 1:11:32Yeah, he also look at the comments that he's made in the
- 1:11:34past too. Like, obviously, some of them
- 1:11:36are crazy. Some of them are fanned driven
- 1:11:37to, obviously, we talked with Michael Jordan one.
- 1:11:39That was more fan driven than I think it was him driven the
- 1:11:41Olympics. One.
- 1:11:41Definitely. Maybe was a little stretched
- 1:11:43calling himself the truth. Fine.
- 1:11:45This one is more on stuff. You can control too.
- 1:11:48Like why is he your blaming that you only took 13 shots in the
- 1:11:51game? It's not like people were
- 1:11:53stealing the ball from you and hogging the ball.
- 1:11:54It's not like you had Carmelo. Anthony dribble in the entire
- 1:11:57shot. Clock from Julius.
- 1:11:58Randle or Donte, divincenzo, or somebody like that.
- 1:12:00You had enough. Time to shoot more than 13
- 1:12:03shots. This is something you control.
- 1:12:04I'm gonna do something. We haven't done in a while is
- 1:12:07actually protect Stefon, Diggs in comparison.
- 1:12:08Remember Stefon. Diggs complain about the
- 1:12:10targets. Yeah, he shouldn't be doing that
- 1:12:12but he's not controlling it. The offensive coordinator the
- 1:12:15coaching and Josh, Allen's controlling it, if the Edwards
- 1:12:17he's controlling the ball, but to the time, so you can't
- 1:12:20complain, you only took 13 shots.
- 1:12:22When you're the one holding the ball, you're not a big man.
- 1:12:24You're not a power forward, a stretch for a baby.
- 1:12:26Yeah. Complaining about not getting
- 1:12:28the ball enough inside because you're not bringing the ball up.
- 1:12:31You're bringing the ball up and you're gonna play, you're only
- 1:12:33getting 13 shots. It's that's ridiculous.
- 1:12:35Today. I mean, come on, like you wanna
- 1:12:37curse out? Reporters questioning?
- 1:12:39Oh, I only got 13 shots. He want to take shots at them
- 1:12:42for saying why he's that. You're the one control, again,
- 1:12:44Chris finches, and taking the ball out of your hand and other
- 1:12:47guy Julius Randall's like going back to 2021 Julius Randle or
- 1:12:50he's hogging the ball forever. This time wasn't the case in
- 1:12:53that game. That's not what you lost the
- 1:12:54game Anthony like You took 13 shots.
- 1:12:56Thank you spank it speedy. Yeah maybe yeah.
- 1:13:00He seems like he was trying to metaphorically spank the
- 1:13:02reporters. I like anal it's absolutely
- 1:13:05uncalled for yes, I'm sure. I'm sure.
- 1:13:07You know it Dodger. Yeah.
- 1:13:09You're 100% right though because we've had this conversation,
- 1:13:13when Aunt has said, you know, he doesn't want to be the face.
- 1:13:17I think this just kind of shows exactly why?
- 1:13:21Because he can't be the face because look at how he handles
- 1:13:26certain things in the way he handles it.
- 1:13:27Like, there are certain guys in certain sports that just know
- 1:13:30how to handle media and certain ways.
- 1:13:33But he is shown over and over that.
- 1:13:37Not only does he not want to be the face, but he's not even a
- 1:13:40leader of the team as one of the best basketball players that we
- 1:13:42have in the NBA, right? Like one of the most Athletics
- 1:13:45that we have and to do the things that he does, but then To
- 1:13:50subside that. Being on the other side where
- 1:13:54it's like, no, I just want to be me, I don't want to do anything.
- 1:13:56Well, if you want to lead the team to win exactly what Ariel
- 1:13:59said, it's like, they're not going to win a championship.
- 1:14:01If he doesn't take ownership and Leadership of that team and be
- 1:14:06who he should be, because you are that, dude, like you are
- 1:14:10that dude, and I don't care whether you want to admit it or
- 1:14:13not and be the face. You don't have to be the face,
- 1:14:16right? Mike Trout came out when he was
- 1:14:18when he was doing in baseball. He said I don't want to be a
- 1:14:21face because I just wanted to do me and I want to be me But when
- 1:14:25it comes to the NBA, it's a little different.
- 1:14:27And he just hasn't shown leadership or anything to show
- 1:14:32us where we could even be. Like, that's the guy that we
- 1:14:36want to be the face of this game right now because there's a
- 1:14:39passing of the torch in every generation and we get
- 1:14:42generational talent. And he could be that if he would
- 1:14:46just Embrace instead of pushing it away and trying to not be
- 1:14:50somebody that he's not like, you can go into these interviews and
- 1:14:56be pissed off. That's fine.
- 1:14:57Like, I understand that. But when you go and you're
- 1:15:00dropping explosives and whatever like that's just not necessary,
- 1:15:04that's just the maturation of you becoming a player, maybe it
- 1:15:08gets better in a few years. Maybe when he grows up and
- 1:15:11somebody gets in his ear and you see what can happen, you just
- 1:15:15don't know. But right now no chance and you
- 1:15:18know, LeBron saying that, you know, he's gonna be the face,
- 1:15:21which that Is is a great, great compliment, right?
- 1:15:26But you don't embrace it, or take it for what it's worth.
- 1:15:30Because as much as people like or don't like LeBron, He handles
- 1:15:34the media, very well. And he says what he, but he just
- 1:15:38he just doesn't do the things that I think.
- 1:15:41And this is just me personally, where I wouldn't want that to be
- 1:15:44the face of the NBA. Isn't there like a crazy sealing
- 1:15:49and a crazy floor for him. 100% is career.
- 1:15:52What's the most cases here? Like I defended him a lot of the
- 1:15:55time, but I can't hear. So, I'm glad everyone's coming
- 1:15:58around to the dark side, which was my opinion on Anthony
- 1:16:02Edwards for a while now because I just worry about his lack of
- 1:16:07maturity and he's now in the league five years, Ram Jam.
- 1:16:09There's there's a guy that played in the league six years
- 1:16:13and was like really great young guy.
- 1:16:15He was gonna take over back in the day Arrow.
- 1:16:17When, when I was in high school so early 2000s and he fell off a
- 1:16:23cliff, because as if you don't mature in time, your athleticism
- 1:16:28doesn't stay as you get older, you lose some of it.
- 1:16:32So if you don't start playing the game in a way where the ball
- 1:16:35gets back to you enough, they, you take enough shots and you're
- 1:16:39not in, you run sets. Well, so you get the ball at the
- 1:16:42end of them. I let's face it.
- 1:16:44That's on you. If you start with the ball and
- 1:16:46you don't end up with it, what are you talking about?
- 1:16:48Like, you're the one starting the play, you've started, you've
- 1:16:52initiated offense. What are we even talking about
- 1:16:56that? So my guy that I am worried
- 1:16:58about as the floor. What if he Stevie franchise?
- 1:17:02Steve franchise was a super dunker was an All-Star every
- 1:17:06year and then the athleticism went a little bit lost the shot
- 1:17:10a little bit and he was basically an afterthought and
- 1:17:14that up on the next as an afterthought, of course, on
- 1:17:16those horrible next teams and was out of the league in less
- 1:17:18than 10 years. That is the floor for him
- 1:17:22because he has the athleticism. Well, his maturity catch up in
- 1:17:27time and then obviously franchise Stevie franchise
- 1:17:30suffered, a bad knee, we're not saying anything like that,
- 1:17:33that's gonna happen. But that's the worst case
- 1:17:36scenario, right? Someone who's already rising to
- 1:17:39that level, don't you for five years?
- 1:17:43First of all, Anthony Edwards is a much better player than Stevie
- 1:17:46franchise. Sure.
- 1:17:48Sure much better play. I mean, you're talking about a
- 1:17:51top three player right now in the NBA, you can argue.
- 1:17:53He's just as good as joking. She's just as good as Shai
- 1:17:57Alexander. He is that good?
- 1:17:59I don't know why anybody doesn't think that he is the problem
- 1:18:01with him. Is he thinks he's the best that
- 1:18:04ever was he Compares himself? And I know he doesn't want to
- 1:18:08say it, but he Compares himself to Michael Jordan.
- 1:18:10He's not Michael Jordan because Michael, Jordan did nothing but
- 1:18:13win. What is this guy won?
- 1:18:15He's won nothing. He had Karl Anthony towns.
- 1:18:17He has had a good roster really since he was drafted.
- 1:18:21Has he ever gotten over the hump?
- 1:18:22By the way, he used to have Jimmy buckets on his team.
- 1:18:25It was Jimmy buckets call. Anthony towns and him and they
- 1:18:29still couldn't win with Tom Thibodaux, by the way, who's the
- 1:18:33defensive Guru, So I don't want to hear it anymore.
- 1:18:36I as far as I'm concerned, Anthony Edwards go out there and
- 1:18:40play the game show. Everybody that you should be
- 1:18:43considered the best player in the league and until you do that
- 1:18:46you're never going to be. And by the way Kevin Durant that
- 1:18:50was his God, that was his favorite player growing up as
- 1:18:53Kevin Durant. How long it took him to win a
- 1:18:55championship? It took them from going from one
- 1:18:58team to another does, Anthony Edwards have to do that to win a
- 1:19:02championship and I'm not taking shots at Kevin Durant.
- 1:19:04He was the best player on that Golden State Warriors team, but
- 1:19:07he had to jump from one team to another and not be the leader of
- 1:19:10the team to go to go with Steph Curry and be the other guy, even
- 1:19:14though he was the best player does Anthony Edwards have to do
- 1:19:17that in the future to win a championship.
- 1:19:19To me, that doesn't make you the best that makes you really a top
- 1:19:24five player at best and that's where he's looked at by a lot of
- 1:19:28players in the league. He's not a top three player
- 1:19:30because he's come out and said that he doesn't want to be the
- 1:19:33face of the NBA. Doesn't want to be the 15.
- 1:19:35USA Basketball. He just wants to play basketball
- 1:19:37and play his video games. Take your video game video games
- 1:19:40and shove it up your ass, bro. Take it and shove it up your
- 1:19:43ass. That to me, video games is not
- 1:19:46gonna tell me what type of player you are.
- 1:19:48And what the type of player you're going to be in the
- 1:19:51future. What it does tell me is that you
- 1:19:53don't care about the game as much as you should because she
- 1:19:56should be like Kobe Bryant at 5:00 in the morning, going to
- 1:19:58the gyms and shooting up those trees and those free throws and
- 1:20:02trying to make yourself better in the gym.
- 1:20:04Then going out there and playing video games to 4:00 in the
- 1:20:07morning after your, your playing in NBA playoff game.
- 1:20:10So that's pathetic. And that's the difference
- 1:20:12between talked about what talent versus leadership.
- 1:20:14And I think it's even more prevalent in the NBA than it is
- 1:20:16with any other sport. Because, obviously in football,
- 1:20:18you want to have the leadership speed and certain positions to
- 1:20:21obviously got, I don't play video games.
- 1:20:23But what I've heard recently not in this series that when he was
- 1:20:29losing, or he lost the game in the last series, I think it was
- 1:20:32one game that they lost in the last series.
- 1:20:34He was playing video games to five o'clock in the morning
- 1:20:38after that game. I think there was one of the
- 1:20:40play-in games. It was a story career too where
- 1:20:42that was like he was, he was up to all hours of the night
- 1:20:45playing video games, because it shows you that he was mocking,
- 1:20:48the team that he was playing, that he didn't think they were
- 1:20:49much of a challenge. So he said, you know what, I
- 1:20:52don't care. I don't have to sleep.
- 1:20:53I can go out there and play my game and beat them hands down
- 1:20:56it. To me, it's despicable.
- 1:20:58And if you're a leader or you're a part of an organization that
- 1:21:01doesn't have leadership that can control this guy, then you don't
- 1:21:03have a team and you don't have, you're never gonna win a
- 1:21:06championship, right? And that's it.
- 1:21:07You and fish were debating on Monday, by the way, check out
- 1:21:09our Clips on our social media just posted earlier today.
- 1:21:11Debating at the Edwards leadership, if it's enough to be
- 1:21:14able to do it. And again, there's a difference
- 1:21:16with leadership in town that comes.
- 1:21:17Now I gave him the credit for being able to lead over somebody
- 1:21:20like Julius Randle somebody over like really Rudy gobert that's
- 1:21:22had issues with their other teams in the past and now at
- 1:21:26this seems like a hole reverse thing where you're going to
- 1:21:29throw them under the bus invertedly by saying, oh, I only
- 1:21:33took 13 shots. That's not him.
- 1:21:35Breaking news. That's not I'm putting you on a
- 1:21:38leash now, anything? Yes, and We should be put on a
- 1:21:42leash from those types of comments.
- 1:21:44Metaphorically. Speaking of stuff like that.
- 1:21:47But like metaphorically speaking saying, it's not our fault that
- 1:21:50it that you didn't get as much shots in the game.
- 1:21:54As you doing like in baseball, like there's uncontrollable
- 1:21:57aspects, you have, if you have a five hitter or something that I
- 1:21:59can only get to the plate five times, you're not gonna say, oh
- 1:22:01I think you get enough plate. Appearances, I don't know the
- 1:22:03top four guys. And say I like I was talking
- 1:22:05about with football, with Stephan digs, like you.
- 1:22:08There's only some control aspects that a game plan is
- 1:22:10going to have where you're being peppered with targets.
- 1:22:12All the time that's pepper in basketball.
- 1:22:15I need a basketball. He was five guys in the court.
- 1:22:19There's not as much things to be able to steal that kind of thing
- 1:22:22where you're only shooting 13 shot.
- 1:22:23I don't think you should shoot 30 three shots, but there should
- 1:22:25be some kind of a balance in a playoff game.
- 1:22:27That's already led to this point and created good things and he
- 1:22:31just doesn't have that. And Kevin Durant, you were
- 1:22:33talking about it maybe was the same kind of way at the
- 1:22:34beginning career where we were questioning his leadership and
- 1:22:36the whole, if you get beaten him things, he joins Golden State
- 1:22:39and then they went Champions, that's what's gonna happening
- 1:22:41Anthony and it's possible. I think that's what's gonna
- 1:22:44happen, obviously, it's not gonna happen this year.
- 1:22:45He just like the contract Out. But two, three years down the
- 1:22:48road. It's Alex Rodriguez is running
- 1:22:50that team and so is Lauria Marlins.
- 1:22:52We all know what that team did after they want a championship.
- 1:22:54They sold their players. So that's what they're gonna do.
- 1:22:57Either eventually Anthony Edwards is going to be a piece
- 1:23:00that he's in a cello way. After he sells the team and and
- 1:23:03same thing with Alex Rodriguez, they bought the team for like,
- 1:23:06under two billion or two billion dollars one and a half.
- 1:23:09Yeah. So one and a half, one and a
- 1:23:11half billion dollars. They got an NBA team and they're
- 1:23:13gonna sell it for six or seven billion.
- 1:23:15It's an absolute slam dunk and honestly, it was one of the
- 1:23:18probably best moves. Alex Rodriguez has ever done in
- 1:23:22his career when he comes to business deals because so he's
- 1:23:25sitting there pretty, he owns a basketball team with one of the
- 1:23:28best players in the league and he's gonna sell them away.
- 1:23:30Just like we've seen it before. Mark.
- 1:23:32Remember he owns the WNBA team as well?
- 1:23:35That's right. Mark always has a price if you
- 1:23:39got that which is all right. You got it?
- 1:23:41Basketball. And I don't remember that one of
- 1:23:43the best free throw shooters ever.
- 1:23:45I'm just I Marco always has a price Java.
- 1:23:48I wonder if the Timberwolves on Pacer have one spending spree
- 1:23:51off-season, like the great Marlins team of 2011 by Burley
- 1:23:54and Jose Reyes Jose Reyes. Well, they had to because they
- 1:23:58got in trouble the year before because they didn't spend
- 1:24:01anything and their payroll was like, it's not a single player
- 1:24:04million, that's crazy. Yeah, I think the Cardinals are
- 1:24:06on Pace for that this off season two.
- 1:24:08It's only, I think that would like good February or something
- 1:24:10like that was a playing good baseball, but when I get into
- 1:24:12baseball right now, but I, I will say this, if they don't win
- 1:24:17tonight, I, I think the Timberwolves are done.
- 1:24:20They have to win this game tonight, if they plan to go back
- 1:24:24home and make this make this decision, I think the
- 1:24:26Timberwolves should win this series, if Anthony Edwards is
- 1:24:30playing at the top of his game. And the way Julius Randle is
- 1:24:33playing, they should win this series.
- 1:24:34I think they're the better team. I really do.
- 1:24:36I know everybody likes, show Casey in the talent that they
- 1:24:39have, I still think. Anthony Edwards is the best
- 1:24:42player in this series, as good as Shai.
- 1:24:45Alexander is Anthony Edwards can take over a game like we've
- 1:24:48never seen a player do since Michael Jordan.
- 1:24:50I've seen this guy completely dominated game and just do
- 1:24:54everything on a basketball court.
- 1:24:56If he figures this out and starts to play his game and
- 1:24:59shuts, his mouth and plays that dominant fashion play type of
- 1:25:03basketball. Then I, I think they're better
- 1:25:05than shy Alexander's, OKC Thunder.
- 1:25:08But I shove the way we've seen it over the last couple of
- 1:25:12months. And, and really, for the last
- 1:25:13three years of this guy, this guy is His Own Worst Enemy.
- 1:25:17And I think this Is going to be a big problem.
- 1:25:19Moving forward in this series because OKC is licking their
- 1:25:22lips and OKC has a chance to win their first title since their
- 1:25:26expansion. You know, Chances with Kevin
- 1:25:29Durant, Russell Westbrook, James Harden and Serge Ibaka.
- 1:25:32This is this is a team that actually can win with less
- 1:25:35Talent, so it's watching the game right now Errol.
- 1:25:38It's early in the game and Jalen Williams, just went down with an
- 1:25:42injury, a good sign, muck things up, a little bit for OKC.
- 1:25:46Don't know how bad it is, but they did take him out for a
- 1:25:50minute, so we'll see what happens with him.
- 1:25:51It, look, you're absolutely right.
- 1:25:53If they can't win this game, they're in a lot of trouble.
- 1:25:56Look, they'll go home, but there's so much shooting on that
- 1:26:00OKC team, and so much ball movement and movement.
- 1:26:03Without the ball is actually from the forward and Center
- 1:26:06position with hard and Stein for a guy like gold bar to keep up
- 1:26:10with for guy like Randall, who we know loses guys to keep up
- 1:26:13with its gonna be a tall tall order.
- 1:26:16I don't think they match up very Well at all Chet's going to give
- 1:26:20Randall problems if he's going to be on the outside, on the
- 1:26:23inside, hardenstein can give him problems.
- 1:26:25It's just it's just not a great matchup for Minnesota, in my
- 1:26:29opinion and Edwards. Why think about it?
- 1:26:32If he initiated the offense, why didn't he get the ball back?
- 1:26:34Because their face guarding him, and when he's close to get the
- 1:26:38ball back, because the coach knows, because the coach is a
- 1:26:41good coach, so guess what? You're gonna have to take the
- 1:26:44ball into your own hands and lead and if not, you're not
- 1:26:48gonna win and I think we're finding out right now.
- 1:26:50He's never gonna be the best player on a championship team.
- 1:26:53Can he be the second best player on a championship team?
- 1:26:55I bet he could, but is he going to be that guy?
- 1:26:58I don't think he has them to be that guy.
- 1:27:01Well, great players. Find a way to win.
- 1:27:03And by the way, Anthony Edwards, just playing a good team,
- 1:27:05basketball game right now, I'm watching the game, he's passing
- 1:27:08the ball, he's using his teammates around him.
- 1:27:10Something that we know Jalen Brunson has not done in game
- 1:27:13number one. So if we see if there's still
- 1:27:17down 10, Know, like it's it's just, it's just like, and, you
- 1:27:22know, Shay just, as we said, does it turn around Fade Away on
- 1:27:25demon shenzo off the glass, like Tim Duncan, and it's just, this
- 1:27:30is a problem. It's early.
- 1:27:31Not compete with that shooting, it's okay.
- 1:27:33It's early. I, again, this, I believe still
- 1:27:37the Timberwolves are very, very aggressive team and they're very
- 1:27:41well coached. And if they can win this game,
- 1:27:43they can go back home to Minnesota.
- 1:27:45They can win this series, I do. And I, they're very hard to be
- 1:27:48in Minnesota just as well as. Okay?
- 1:27:50See is at home think? Okay.
- 1:27:53See only lost six games at home all season long or something of
- 1:27:57them magnitude. So I just, I am not going to sit
- 1:28:00here and say, this series is over, I know it's one game
- 1:28:03tonight. I know you don't think the Knick
- 1:28:05series is over. But you think you think as you
- 1:28:08use the word think I I just what are you even talking about it?
- 1:28:14What you want me to just what you said?
- 1:28:16You just you did say that. I Think if I if I got so many
- 1:28:22things I'd love to say but they're big holes on not going
- 1:28:25to I am a legendary someone who doesn't listen when they don't
- 1:28:3099 times. One thing you heard one thing
- 1:28:33out the other one of 100 and you stick with the one.
- 1:28:36Not the real question, just Joey's bag of donuts.
- 1:28:39Come with bagel's. Oh, don't worry when we get to
- 1:28:42our Sportsmen at later. Joey Bag of Donuts is making a
- 1:28:45return. Thank you.
- 1:28:46Dare worry about that. Well, you excited, I worry about
- 1:28:49everything I've ever said, I would worry about everything
- 1:28:52that goes through. That guy's mind.
- 1:28:54Tell, I just you have to worry about what goes through my mind.
- 1:28:56I mean, seriously, there are a lot of things that come out of
- 1:28:59my mind. That, you know, and offset.
- 1:29:01I don't have the energy to worry about what's going on in your
- 1:29:04mind? That's true.
- 1:29:05There's a lot. I mean, there are things that I
- 1:29:07do offset, that probably will get people worry, you know?
- 1:29:10But nevertheless, I don't want to mention those crazy things.
- 1:29:14You have to know me off air to know that if you think I'm crazy
- 1:29:18on. Are, I'm a lot worse off air.
- 1:29:20But nevertheless, I know and I understand the game of
- 1:29:24basketball and I do believe. Anthony Edwards is as good as
- 1:29:27Shai, Alexander, when it comes to this game.
- 1:29:29And if Anthony Edwards wants to beat, okay?
- 1:29:32See he's gonna have to play his dominant fashion of basketball,
- 1:29:37and he didn't do that against Luka doncic last year, and
- 1:29:39that's why they lost Against the Mavericks and he's not doing it
- 1:29:42right now against, okay. See, but again it's still early
- 1:29:46and anything is possible. By the way, we're still waiting
- 1:29:49for Erica coming in around 9:15. Stuck in traffic.
- 1:29:52Are you dancing? Are you gonna dance for us
- 1:29:54tonight? Have you ever lose a bat?

- 1:32:05holes, no finger too, about those leashes, talk about that.
- 1:32:08If I'm on the spice channel, the two hole will be, you know,
- 1:32:12Tommy's favorite area to put his cheeks, right?
- 1:32:15What do you think? What do you think, Tommy?
- 1:32:18I think it's true. I think, Tommy Tommy, is the
- 1:32:20fifth on this one right now. Well, he's pleading the fifth
- 1:32:22because he doesn't believe it to be true but you know, if we
- 1:32:25actually it's good, you know, you're right though.
- 1:32:27Well, I'm gonna, I'm gonna reach out to dude wipes because I
- 1:32:32think we're gonna need a sponsored it out of my ass just
- 1:32:35so we can have Tommy poops in Dora hot, ladies the moment
- 1:32:41time, here's the commercial job, it's real simple commercial for
- 1:32:44dude wipes. It's just Tommy sitting on the
- 1:32:46bowl and then he just and then they get second camera shot, he
- 1:32:50turns his face and gives a thumbs up.

- 1:32:55Wipes For you got a good enough for me.
- 1:32:59I got to have the dude wipes their president and the thumbs
- 1:33:02up too. That was Dynamite Arrow.
- 1:33:07That's great. You had the fart sound as
- 1:33:10Tommy's thumb was going on. Ah, Tommy likes to shove his
- 1:33:16thumb right? Can we can we make a song with
- 1:33:19you actually lost sound on? Did you a little bit?
- 1:33:23Did you lose sound now we got you, there he is, he's lost.
- 1:33:27I I would, I have to, you know what we got to do.
- 1:33:30We got to make a Christmas album job in a mouth Christmas album
- 1:33:34where we can add our own takes to Rudolph the Red-Nosed
- 1:33:38Reindeer. Well, you guys think about that?
- 1:33:40I could definitely put something together, have job, you know,
- 1:33:43dancing in the background, he's a little cartoon character and
- 1:33:46and Speedy, you know, I don't know, riding Rudolph or
- 1:33:50something, you know, right behind him.
- 1:33:52Right. I don't know if it might have to
- 1:33:54coordinate the coordinate know he's not riding behind me.
- 1:33:57Don't put that on me. Slay job.
- 1:34:01No, don't put that on me, speeding, Speedy is not in my
- 1:34:05back door. He's smell my ass.
- 1:34:07We need to have well, nothing lead the sled, though, because
- 1:34:11the the The little that attaches the reindeer but just like a
- 1:34:16leash Lincoln and stick it already.
- 1:34:19Look at he's about to eat something.
- 1:34:25I am a legend. I'm definitely a literals elf
- 1:34:33from Elf Speedy. Yes, you know that actually fits
- 1:34:36you. Why am I the one with the woman?
- 1:34:38Why am I the woman with the big breasts?
- 1:34:40I don't get it. You're probably talking about
- 1:34:42them. I just, I do like, if I don't
- 1:34:44know what, by the way, if I actually had breast like that, I
- 1:34:47would probably walk around naked.
- 1:34:48I probably would, I'm not lying. So I'm just speaking the truth
- 1:34:52here but you know, you're Shameless.
- 1:34:53Well, that's true. Give me that chicken curry.
- 1:34:55I like the chicken curry. I mean, we all know Nathan
- 1:34:58likes, chicken, curry. I there's a lot of things that
- 1:35:01nif in likes, that kind of scares me by the way.
- 1:35:03But that's a whole nother story and we're a sports radio show.
- 1:35:06And I want to get myself into trouble because if I do, I'll
- 1:35:10probably never get signed by anybody.
- 1:35:11But now the less where waiting for our friend Eric hassle time,
- 1:35:15he is a really great Personnel. He does such a great job for the
- 1:35:20Memphis Grizzlies and when we get him in here or definitely
- 1:35:23going to get well, we're not going to discourage.
- 1:35:25Him, we'll definitely push him to the to the mountains and
- 1:35:28hopefully the mountains don't collapse.
- 1:35:30Because, usually, when I'm on the mountains, they definitely
- 1:35:32collapse. Anyways, but before we get him
- 1:35:35on, I might as well do my deuce of the day.
- 1:35:37Let's do it. But before you not a lot, I
- 1:35:42don't have a lot but He? Want to do that again.
- 1:35:53What were you gonna say? Java?
- 1:35:54Good. No, I was just gonna say, would
- 1:35:56you, would you ever like somebody was talking about,
- 1:35:58like, climbing Mount Everest? Like, would you ever like try to
- 1:36:01do that? Never, first of all, who do we
- 1:36:03have on the Patterson Mark? Patterson has climbed every
- 1:36:06single dangerous mountain known to man.
- 1:36:08And after hearing what he had to go through, you will never see
- 1:36:13me climb a mountain that danger, all the dead bodies up there and
- 1:36:16everything never got to just like walk over.
- 1:36:19There's nothing else in the first five of them, the first
- 1:36:21one, he described. And then we're many others after
- 1:36:23he's absolutely use them as landmarks now, you know, see how
- 1:36:27high you are. Yeah, here's bill.
- 1:36:30You know, we're up to Bill. Well my son tomorrow, it's
- 1:36:37actually there was a an aew wrestler named Darby Allen just
- 1:36:43completed his client to Mount Everest all the way at the top
- 1:36:46and did the Diamond Dallas Page, Diamond Cutter, symbol at the
- 1:36:49top of Mount good for him. Yes, he was a wrestler too cuz I
- 1:36:53gotta be hard. I would imagine For society
- 1:36:55fish. Did you hear what he Darby?
- 1:36:57Alan small. He is a smaller, dude.
- 1:36:59But he did like a whole team that helped him, but which is
- 1:37:00pretty understandable. Oh, you have to, of course.
- 1:37:02Yeah, but my thing is fish, did you see that?
- 1:37:04He planted the aew flag on top of Mount Everest.
- 1:37:09Yep. That means that they can do
- 1:37:11shows up there now, I can't wait for the first show on top of it.
- 1:37:14Still gonna be an empty crowd and still gonna be no fans in
- 1:37:17the stadium being an empty crowd.
- 1:37:19And by the time they get to the top, they'll be blown off the
- 1:37:22mountains so good for them, bunch of hicks, too.
- 1:37:24I have no woody, all right. Well, that's probably true.
- 1:37:28I mean, in many different ways. Anyways, we called this the
- 1:37:33deuce of the day. I mean, I'm sorry.
- 1:37:36What do you Oh well, that was interesting.
- 1:37:50Ladies and gentlemen I do so the day goes to the Steelers, Alan
- 1:37:54as Alex Highsmith was on a podcast recently.
- 1:37:57He said some interesting things about the Aaron Rodgers
- 1:38:01situation. He says Aaron Rodgers, weight
- 1:38:05isn't just a distraction to all of us if he does sign.
- 1:38:08Well, definitely, he'll definitely be a boost but we're
- 1:38:12not sure. But we're gonna be excited if he
- 1:38:14does. Here's what I'm going to say
- 1:38:16about the great. Aaron Rodgers.
- 1:38:18Aaron Rodgers does what Aaron Rodgers wants?
- 1:38:21That's why the New York Jets organization and Aaron Glenn.
- 1:38:24And ownership did not want him there.
- 1:38:27This coming season, he is not a good Samaritan for an
- 1:38:31organization, especially a young organization with a new coach
- 1:38:35and now he's going to a team like, Mike Tomlin, I guess they
- 1:38:39have a Love Fest and Mike Tomlin probably told everybody
- 1:38:42including our Rogers. Hey, come back, come to the team
- 1:38:45whenever you want OTAs will be over.
- 1:38:47You can come Practice with the team before this season and
- 1:38:50we'll be fine the problem right now with Aaron Rodgers is if
- 1:38:54Aaron Rodgers does not go and sign with the Pittsburgh
- 1:38:58Steelers and decide to part ways and retire.
- 1:39:01Who do the Steelers have, as they're starting quarterback.
- 1:39:03I I mean, seriously. They're waiting for Aaron
- 1:39:08Rodgers to make a decision and OTAs are what two months a month
- 1:39:12and a half away. This is not a good sign, ladies
- 1:39:15and gentlemen, if you're a Steelers fan and anybody that
- 1:39:18thinks this is a good sign for the Steelers organization and
- 1:39:21Mike Tomlin, with this defense, one of the elite defenses, Elite
- 1:39:25only spells trouble. And you know what I think about
- 1:39:28this, I think not only, this is the due to the day, this is an
- 1:39:31absolute debacle for an organization.
- 1:39:34That's supposedly is a top organization and one of the best
- 1:39:38organizations run in all of the NFL, this Rooney, or this
- 1:39:42family, the Rooney family, and even a family over there, that's
- 1:39:46running the New York football Giants that are very well
- 1:39:49respected. So out The League.
- 1:39:51They have been nothing but a debacle, a Pittsburgh Steeler
- 1:39:54organization that hasn't gotten out of the first round and eight
- 1:39:57seasons and now a New York Giants team that hasn't won a
- 1:40:00Super Bowl. All or hasn't even come close to
- 1:40:03us. It will all since 2011 just an
- 1:40:05absolute Croc. So my deuce of the day goes to
- 1:40:09the Pittsburgh Steelers and this Aaron Rodgers debacle.
- 1:40:13So there you go. Thank you for all by the way it
- 1:40:17was I don't know if it was Highsmith but it was another
- 1:40:19defensive player, Cameron Heyward Cameron, hey Cameron
- 1:40:22Heyward said, I think it was a couple of weeks ago.
- 1:40:25After the Super Bowl says. If Aaron Rodgers comes to this
- 1:40:28team it'll be an absolute debacle and the organization is
- 1:40:31making a huge mistake and now you have high Smith one of their
- 1:40:34best linebackers, one of the best defensive players saying,
- 1:40:37hey we're gonna open with open arms.
- 1:40:39Is this team actually on the same path?
- 1:40:43Do they actually know what they're freaking doing?
- 1:40:45I mean, I don't know what this team and this organization's
- 1:40:49trying to do. They've made so many mistakes.
- 1:40:51They drafted, Kenny Pickett, he's no longer with this
- 1:40:54organization. They bring in Russell Westbrook
- 1:40:57Russell. I'm sorry.
- 1:40:58Russell Wilson, they bring in Justin fields.
- 1:41:01They had a good Young quarterback.
- 1:41:02All they had to do was start him throughout the season last year
- 1:41:05and not bring in Russell Wilson in the middle of a season and
- 1:41:09maybe Justin field signs with them and instead they got our in
- 1:41:14freaking Rogers or do that. We don't know.
- 1:41:16So I don't know what's going on with this organization.
- 1:41:19I don't get it. I don't get it.
- 1:41:22But you know what? Thank God.
- 1:41:24It's not the New York Jets. Thank God.
- 1:41:26The Jets are not in a tabloids, with the Aaron Rodgers Saga,
- 1:41:30they were. So I thought you get through a
- 1:41:32segment without having the Jets reference or something.
- 1:41:35I haven't said the Jets. I think I haven't spoken about
- 1:41:39the Jets in weeks. I don't even know.
- 1:41:41It's been, it's been a few. I was proud of you.
- 1:41:44I'm giving you, first of all, if I'm giving you a compliment if I
- 1:41:48ever speak about the Jets, it's not good.
- 1:41:50Okay, so I don't, I don't know why anybody thinks that when I
- 1:41:54speak about the Jets is good, it's a good story, it's usually
- 1:41:57bad, but, yeah, I think God jets are not the laughing stock right
- 1:42:02now in the offseason. It is the Pittsburgh Steelers.
- 1:42:04They have nothing who is their quarterback, if he doesn't sign
- 1:42:08with them. It works.
- 1:42:10They said rough. I think it's Mason Rudolph.
- 1:42:12Yeah, yeah. They're arguably the worst team
- 1:42:16in the NFL next year with Mason Rudolph is their starting
- 1:42:19quarterback and maybe they're they're looking to lose and
- 1:42:22maybe this is Mike tomlin's farewell tour because then they
- 1:42:25get the number one pick next year with the quarterback class.
- 1:42:28Very, very good. Next, it says to not forget
- 1:42:30about will Howard, the great will Howard.
- 1:42:33Could you stop Nathan? What are you lost?
- 1:42:35Imagine you perspective. Even West is a huge Ohio, State
- 1:42:40Buckeyes fan could stand. Well, Howard will Howard, is
- 1:42:43that where we're coming to? This is where we're coming.
- 1:42:46I mean, serious. I don't, I don't understand the
- 1:42:48Pittsburgh Steelers. I think the Browns have a better
- 1:42:51position to have a better season with the quarterback.
- 1:42:54The Buckle they have over there, then the Pittsburgh Steelers and
- 1:42:58at least they have four quarter. Why didn't you, why didn't they
- 1:43:01signed Joe Flacco? Joe Flacco was again sitting on
- 1:43:04his parents so far and now he's over there with the Browns and
- 1:43:08they have what four starting Quarterbacks or whatever they
- 1:43:10have over there. Well they got three and one for
- 1:43:13healthy and one that's on IR with Watson.
- 1:43:16Well hold on one second, they got four of them, they drafted
- 1:43:19two of them. And one of them, that's probably
- 1:43:21going to be on the practice squad after making Six Million
- 1:43:24last year's making four million after being drafted in the 5th
- 1:43:28round this past year. You know, I'm talking about your
- 1:43:30boy should door is What? I got to figure out a nickname
- 1:43:35for shedeur Sanders. I gotta get a nickname.
- 1:43:37We are, you didn't find one yet like you did with the Gremlins?
- 1:43:39It's the well, he looks like a gremlin.
- 1:43:42I mean, anybody anybody that c has anybody seen what Travis
- 1:43:47Hunter looks like? I mean, seriously.
- 1:43:49I'm not trying to make we all we all have.
- 1:43:51I mean when he smiles, he looks like a gremlin.
- 1:43:54I mean, he really does. I mean, by the way, they're
- 1:43:57coming out with Gremlins 3 finally after 25 years.
- 1:43:59So maybe he's a starring. He stars as one of the lead
- 1:44:03roles in that movie, I mean, that would be cool, right?
- 1:44:05And everybody would be giving me the head, you know, they give me
- 1:44:09the compliments because I gave him the nickname Gremlin.
- 1:44:11I give everybody a nickname. I just never get credit for
- 1:44:14anything. I do on this show ever.
- 1:44:16I mean, I've called things and I've said, by the way, whereas
- 1:44:19Bambi, I mean where I forgot, he's in San Francisco.
- 1:44:22How's that? How's that debacle going to last
- 1:44:26this coming season, by the way, where are you Owen?
- 1:44:29Where is the compliments from that one baby.
- 1:44:31If your theory is true of the A Niners.
- 1:44:34Firing Cairo. Kyle said I had maybe he'll take
- 1:44:36over his interim, coach, and a resurrect himself is Eric.
- 1:44:38Okay, he's definitely a hassle time anyway.
- 1:44:41When we come back ladies and gentlemen, Hicar.
- 1:44:46He's, you know, he's driving in terrible traffic, it seems like
- 1:44:49but he's smiling, he's happy, we love when he smiling because
- 1:44:54he's got some good takes and good content when we come back,
- 1:44:58the one and only play by play for the man France Grizzlies.
- 1:45:03Eric hassle time. This is the job and the mouth
- 1:45:09Sportsman. All right guys.

- 1:50:40anything crazy. Yeah, I'm doing something crazy.
- 1:50:41I'm sitting, I'm sitting in a car in Memphis, you know, our
- 1:50:44carjacking rates. So, if you see somebody roll up
- 1:50:47to my window, just give me a heads up a little delayed dad,
- 1:50:50taxi stuff tonight, I was trying to get back to the, to the
- 1:50:53house, but on my way now, that's, that's fine.
- 1:50:56And we want to apologize. I know you're a busy guy and we
- 1:50:58just we're just happy that you're.
- 1:51:00I just we're happy that you're joining us because I know you're
- 1:51:03a busy guy, but guess what? The season is over, and you
- 1:51:06don't have to watch that the Buckle as we've watched
- 1:51:10throughout the season, the Memphis Grizzlies, go up and
- 1:51:13down. I am a big John, Moran fan, and
- 1:51:15I want to get into the JAMA. Ranch story, your thoughts, your
- 1:51:18Jammer Ranch season this year coming back from all the
- 1:51:22accolades. And then during the season, I
- 1:51:25mean at the end of the season, the shooting up in the air with
- 1:51:29his hand gestures, what are what are your thoughts to John Moran
- 1:51:34season 1 and what are you thoughts to John Moran, doing
- 1:51:37the things that he did? Offset as well.
- 1:51:41I think when you start with the season, you have to go back to
- 1:51:43the Victoria's labor him last year and so I felt like he came
- 1:51:48back early now. Obviously medical personnel will
- 1:51:53Tell you whether he's good to go or not and he'll tell you
- 1:51:55whether he's good to go. But if you ask a pro athlete
- 1:51:57that should wants to be a star, they're going to want to play
- 1:52:00any chance. They get so his shot just didn't
- 1:52:03look the same and you know the shoulder soreness.
- 1:52:07And then it really kind of unraveled.
- 1:52:09You got frustrated fans, you got a lot of people chattering and
- 1:52:12social media and I thought some of it it appeared to get to them
- 1:52:16and so, there was some frustration, a new offense, a
- 1:52:20change in the assistant, coaches, and one of the guys
- 1:52:23that left was his workout guy and I equated it like this guy
- 1:52:29and I've said this, I'm not afraid to say and it's nothing
- 1:52:31against the guy that took the Departed coaches place, but when
- 1:52:35I watched him work out with the guy that left whose name was
- 1:52:38Blake, Aaron or is Blake Aaron? He looked like he was having
- 1:52:41fun. When I watched him with the new
- 1:52:43guy, it looked like he was just doing it because he had To, I
- 1:52:47equated to a kid getting an ice cream cone to a kid.
- 1:52:49Getting a stick of broccoli. I just didn't look the same and
- 1:52:53so you switched the offense. Now you're all five out, it's
- 1:52:57more ball movement and and less one guy, dominating The
- 1:53:01Possession, you drafted a 73300 pound Center to set screens for
- 1:53:07a guy and now you're literally not setting any screens.
- 1:53:10So I think there was some frustration.
- 1:53:12I think the coaching staff was put in a really difficult place
- 1:53:17by deciding to change the assistant coaches.
- 1:53:19Even though the head coach didn't seemingly want to do
- 1:53:23that, but he went along with it and then everybody questioned
- 1:53:26whether or not the coach was a setting gut which he turned out
- 1:53:29to be when they fired him with nine games left.
- 1:53:31You know, that's a front offices decision to make.
- 1:53:33But when your star player isn't down with it, you got a problem
- 1:53:36now with the other Antics that you're talking about.
- 1:53:41I just my belief is this look, it's never a right to be a
- 1:53:45professional athlete. It's a privilege you've earned
- 1:53:47that privilege with God giving talents, but the league can
- 1:53:51still tell you, hey, these are our rules, whether you like them
- 1:53:54or not, you can choose to break them.
- 1:53:55That's fine. But there are penalties.
- 1:53:56And so I'm not saying that. Josh shouldn't do the things he
- 1:54:00wants to do, but if you do something, they tell you to stop
- 1:54:03doing then be prepared for the consequences.
- 1:54:06And I don't think, obviously, that this is You know, a
- 1:54:11situation where other guys don't make the same gestures because
- 1:54:14they do. But other guys want, suspended
- 1:54:16twice for brandishing a firearm on social media.
- 1:54:19And so, there's got to be some sort of awareness with that.
- 1:54:23Now, the way I saw it just from my eyes was the first time he
- 1:54:27did it and the Warriors complained about it.
- 1:54:29My guess is and I'm not privy. I'm just totally guessing that
- 1:54:33they probably had got a phone call that said, hey stop
- 1:54:36pointing your fingers at your opponents.
- 1:54:38So the next game he pointed them.
- 1:54:40It's Scotty Pippen Jr. Every play and that just
- 1:54:43leaving. So He's like, all right I did
- 1:54:45exactly what you said. I didn't Point them at my
- 1:54:48opponent. I pointed at my teammate and
- 1:54:50then reportedly, there was a warning saying if you do it
- 1:54:53again, then you know, there's going to be consequences.
- 1:54:56So after that, he got fined and then he went to the, I'm
- 1:55:00throwing word bombs, and doing the grenade thing, which
- 1:55:03everybody kind of chuckled at and you see his influence
- 1:55:05because you got kids now doing that in, you know, a ball.
- 1:55:09They just had a big Nike eybl turn up here.
- 1:55:12I can't tell you how many text messages I got from people at
- 1:55:15the event. Going, this kid just did the job
- 1:55:17Ward Box. Okay, great.
- 1:55:19You know what? It's summer time.
- 1:55:20We got swept. I'm doing something else.
- 1:55:22I don't care. Um but I think the guy showed at
- 1:55:26times again, he's one of the most talented players in the
- 1:55:28league. I think he has an opportunity to
- 1:55:31earn that back. He said all the right things at
- 1:55:34the end of the year, about the new coach to all Mossy Salo, he
- 1:55:37seems to really get along with them.
- 1:55:39They're gonna bring Zach edey out to Summer League, they made
- 1:55:42that announcement, to get him to understand the offense, and if
- 1:55:45Zach understands the offense, that gives him someone, in that
- 1:55:48role that Steven Adams played for years, which allowed John to
- 1:55:52really get downhill and, and break down defenses and that
- 1:55:56just wasn't happening last year. Now, they played fast, they
- 1:56:00scored a ton of points and it was a different system, but the
- 1:56:03one thing I think you guys would understand and know about is,
- 1:56:07when you throw something different at a league.
- 1:56:09It takes a minute to catch up, but about game 40, when teams
- 1:56:13had read the scene, the tape and seen what the offense was doing.
- 1:56:16And the warriors were the first team to kind of write the game
- 1:56:19plan. We saw nothing but shell zone
- 1:56:21defense and nobody protecting the middle because the Grizzlies
- 1:56:25aren't going to attack the middle.
- 1:56:25They never did and they weren't gonna be in the paint.
- 1:56:28They were going to be on the perimeter.
- 1:56:29They might get Jaron Jackson to score up a big that he could
- 1:56:32overpower. But other than that, it was
- 1:56:34passed pass. Chuck It Up From Beyond the line
- 1:56:37or get all the way to the rim on a breakaway.
- 1:56:40So teams figured it out and when they figure it out, the offense,
- 1:56:44kind of stagnated. And then they got to the second
- 1:56:46half of their schedule, which was loaded with playoff teams,
- 1:56:49and they did not produce victories.
- 1:56:51And so despite the fact that they won 48 games, made the
- 1:56:55playoffs at one point. This was the number two team in
- 1:56:58the west. And I vividly remember a night
- 1:57:00where they were playing Oklahoma City like okay, here's your
- 1:57:03test. This is clearly the best team in
- 1:57:05the west. You're right now in the two spot
- 1:57:07where do you stand and a 23-point?
- 1:57:09Loss later. He went oh maybe this is some of
- 1:57:12this fattening up on the bad teams that you saw early in the
- 1:57:15schedule and teams that aren't going to be in the playoff
- 1:57:18picture. And then they go play a really,
- 1:57:21really good game, but make a mistake and still find a way to
- 1:57:24win and you are right. You beat the Timberwolves twice
- 1:57:27and you could have been beaten the Rockets two out of the three
- 1:57:30losses that you had. Threw a game away here but
- 1:57:34you're blowing out these other teams.
- 1:57:36But after the All-Star break, I think the team that kind of got
- 1:57:39them is now the team that's making the most noise in the NBA
- 1:57:42and its Indiana. They put a 50.30 quarter on him
- 1:57:45and we all kind of looked at each other like well that
- 1:57:47escalated in a hurry fellas and the second half.
- 1:57:51After that was kind of just a, it was a rough.
- 1:57:53Go to say, the leader is, why are you trying to hurt our
- 1:57:56feelings? You had to bring up the Pacers.
- 1:58:00to bring it up, the We were we were good me and you were good
- 1:58:03and then you had to bring up the Indiana Pacers and piss me off.
- 1:58:06Yeah. Well you can blame us for giving
- 1:58:08them confidence I guess I look don't know.
- 1:58:11Three with 14 seconds. What?
- 1:58:14I'm taking the shot? Do that was the lucky roll.
- 1:58:17I've ever seen a player have in a playoff game, I mean that hit
- 1:58:23off the back of the rim and when 15 feet in the air and went
- 1:58:26right in. It's spun right into the rim.
- 1:58:28I mean, what a chance is that happening?
- 1:58:31Very little very but like what this is the third time they've
- 1:58:35seen to do something like this but I just thought Thibodaux
- 1:58:37made a mistake fouling that early.
- 1:58:39So and again and because you're basically putting all the
- 1:58:43pressure on your free throw shooter, six seconds.
- 1:58:45I'm all for it. 14, I went a little early, just let the guy
- 1:58:49taking off balance three and get the possession, give it the
- 1:58:51Bronson, but I'm not an NBA coach.
- 1:58:53So it's like our season ended in a 40 sweep.
- 1:58:56So who am I? What the hell do?
- 1:59:00I know? Well, you've been the Grizzlies
- 1:59:02play by play guy for a long time.
- 1:59:04So, you know, something obviously or they wouldn't be
- 1:59:06keeping you in that position. I know.
- 1:59:09I know I'm old and I seen a lot of crappy basketball over the
- 1:59:13hold on. Eric, how old are you?
- 1:59:14How old are you? Oh 97.
- 1:59:17No 52. So you're only what you're nine
- 1:59:21years older than me. You're not that old Eric.
- 1:59:23Stop making yourself older, then you should be because then
- 1:59:25you're making me as ancient as you.
- 1:59:27Okay please. I'm still dating 35 and under
- 1:59:31I'm good. What?
- 1:59:36Yeah, I'll be whatever they want me to be as long as they as long
- 1:59:41as they come home, we're good. Good for you.
- 1:59:45Eric, I've never met you but I already like you, that's
- 1:59:48fantastic. So, Eric, I kind of laugh.
- 1:59:52Is that what are you a crow or something?
- 1:59:53What the hell is that guy at Speedy?
- 1:59:57Spit it out. All right, so another guy that's
- 1:59:59making headlines. The guy that I used to be with
- 2:00:01your team Dillon Brooks. And Draymond Green, definitely,
- 2:00:04feuding. We've seen Dillon Brooks a
- 2:00:05feuding with a bunch of other guys.
- 2:00:06What is your thoughts of the whole rivalry?
- 2:00:08With the two of them were both when he was in Memphis with you
- 2:00:11and now seeing it in this postseason?
- 2:00:13Oh gosh, you know, look, I got along with Dylan Dylan's a
- 2:00:18different, dude. He's that guy that when you see
- 2:00:20him outside the gym, you're cool.
- 2:00:23Everything's fine. You see him in the gym.
- 2:00:24This guy would walk by you and not even like Blinky.
- 2:00:28I don't even think he saw anybody around him when he got
- 2:00:31to the arena. And I thought he embraced that
- 2:00:35Dylan the villain role. But maybe took it too far.
- 2:00:38I love the way play, but when Dillon Brooks tried to be more
- 2:00:42than Dillon, Brooks was when the Grizzlies kind of had issues,
- 2:00:46And it was a wild stat when he was here when he scored 20 or
- 2:00:49more points like the Grizzlies were like, 23 and 4.
- 2:00:53But the only times he scored 20 points was when he took less
- 2:00:56than 15 shots and that doesn't make sense, you're like this
- 2:01:00doesn't add up. So he would be trying to get to
- 2:01:0320 and failing and taking bad shots.
- 2:01:06Now, when those two teams met, there was some rivalry there and
- 2:01:10then Dylan, Like In the Heat of the Moment he made a bad
- 2:01:14decision, he was not going to block Gary.
- 2:01:16Payton shot on a breakaway. I remember vividly watching him
- 2:01:20go up and go to what are you doing?
- 2:01:23Because Gary Payton has what they call the bounce as you guys
- 2:01:27know. And Dylan Is Not That Bouncy and
- 2:01:30when he was a step behind its kind of one of those ones you
- 2:01:34want to foul him fine but you don't try to go up hard and
- 2:01:38Payton Falls breaks his wrists and of course, the next thing I
- 2:01:42know I'm walking through San Francisco before game three and
- 2:01:46everybody's driving by me going. Hey man, your number one except
- 2:01:48it's not number one, it's the middle finger salute.
- 2:01:53Oh, I get it. I got a grizzly shirt on.
- 2:01:55I forgot. Not to put this on this morning.
- 2:01:57Like we literally were won when we went out there for game
- 2:02:00three. And that's series like, hey, you
- 2:02:01might not want to wear the team gear around the city.
- 2:02:03And I was like, what are you talking about it?
- 2:02:05San Francisco, nobody cares. Yeah, turns out they do.
- 2:02:09Because we can walk to our hotel from the arena and I it was
- 2:02:12beautiful out and I'm like, all right I'll just walk back and
- 2:02:14I'm here, I'm like hey yo buddy and I'm like, what are you
- 2:02:17talking to? Why are you yelling at me?
- 2:02:19I grew. I grew up out here.
- 2:02:21I'm like nobody does this? I'm not I'm not in New York
- 2:02:24where I expect that stuff and I respect it.
- 2:02:27But you know then the Dream on I thought really.
- 2:02:32He really kind of stoked it all up.
- 2:02:34When he said, look the Grizzlies, if the Grizzlies are
- 2:02:37alive, I think the quote was at the Grizzlies were relying on
- 2:02:39this idiot to give them a championship, there's not gonna
- 2:02:42be a parade in their City ever and that was the whole big John
- 2:02:46Moran. There's going to a parade in my
- 2:02:47city thing, he was playing off of And Dylan took that to heart
- 2:02:51and then he did it with LeBron. He did it with staff and You
- 2:02:54know, he just gets under your skin but the one thing I will
- 2:02:57give the guy a talk right before is he's a hell of a Defender.
- 2:03:00And I think in a lot of ways nobody will admit it.
- 2:03:04He's got a lot of respect for the way dream on place right on
- 2:03:07Place physical, he plays top. He goes at officials I mean I
- 2:03:11laughed when Nicole aoki's got thrown out of the game and they
- 2:03:13said well he's profanity and an official and I said that's how
- 2:03:17Draymond Green addresses you guys.
- 2:03:19How does he He doesn't call you by your name.
- 2:03:22He's like, hey, dude, like it's hey, MF or like, and that's what
- 2:03:25he calls you. And but, they understand that
- 2:03:28and I'll tell you like, I had a conversation with an official
- 2:03:31outside the arena. We just ran into each other
- 2:03:34because hey, tell Dylan 30 seconds into the game.
- 2:03:37He doesn't need to be complaining about every call and
- 2:03:39I was like, you know, you know, Dylan and he goes, yeah, we all
- 2:03:43know Dylan, I went. Okay, that'll be fun.
- 2:03:45So I like that rivalry with them.
- 2:03:48I think there's more room in our game for dislike.
- 2:03:54I mean, you're Java will tell you, I'm sure when you played
- 2:03:57the Red Sox, you didn't exactly want to go over and like, give
- 2:04:01him, bro. Hugs.
- 2:04:02If they, you know, we're happy that we're going to get one of
- 2:04:04the earhole and, you know, back in the day, if you came across
- 2:04:08the lane, you know, I've become friends with Rick Mahorn.
- 2:04:11He'll tell you the same thing, he working for the Pistons.
- 2:04:13He's like, if you came in the lane and I said, a screen, and
- 2:04:16you kept coming and I was gonna let you know, like, I'm gonna
- 2:04:19hit you, you're not, you're not gonna not feel me.
- 2:04:22And I think there's there's room for more that in the League.
- 2:04:25This year, allowed guys, to be more physical and some guys
- 2:04:28couldn't take it and until it was embracing that to the point
- 2:04:31where I was like, yo, man, that's like when he did it.
- 2:04:33Like Desmond Bane, I'm like, that was your best friend here.
- 2:04:36Are you like, not to the floor? And I'm like, wait, you're not
- 2:04:39on the same team. When the ball goes in the air, I
- 2:04:42don't want you to be my friend. I want to kick your butt and I
- 2:04:45respect that about him. Eric, I love that you brought
- 2:04:48that up because I, I wanted to ask you a question because we
- 2:04:51see it from afar. You see it up front for you and
- 2:04:55like, obviously dealing with commentary and and all the other
- 2:04:58stuff. Like, when you see things and
- 2:05:00you have these interactions and you see it on the court, Do you
- 2:05:05think? There needs to be more guys,
- 2:05:08that Embrace that like, hey, you're in the league.
- 2:05:11I'm gonna give you what you need.
- 2:05:13And do you think that job at the same time?
- 2:05:17Is kind of like he's in between that because he's like, I'm
- 2:05:21gonna be me and I'm gonna do my thing.
- 2:05:24Or do you think he needs to kind of take a step back and be like,
- 2:05:28just understand the game and and how good he is. you know, I
- 2:05:34think for jaw It all happens, so fast.
- 2:05:39It's one of those rocket ships to stardom situations, where You
- 2:05:45know, you come from Murray State, your burst on the scene.
- 2:05:48You have an amazing NCAA tournament.
- 2:05:50All the sudden you're gonna be an NBA lottery.
- 2:05:53Pick in a very small town, and the bright lights are there.
- 2:06:00I think you let people be who they can be, I've always said
- 2:06:03this about a professional athlete.
- 2:06:04Look If I, if I had the god-given ability to play any
- 2:06:09professional sport, you give me my pick, whether it's shortstop
- 2:06:12for the Yankees quarterback for my favorite team, the Packers or
- 2:06:16any NFL team. And I'm 24 years old and I've
- 2:06:22got millions of dollars in my pocket, or I'm a point guard for
- 2:06:25the Lakers and every girl in the building wants my number and
- 2:06:29wants to talk to me and with social media, they're coming at
- 2:06:32you from 9 million different directors.
- 2:06:34Hey, go live your life. Be a 24 year.
- 2:06:37Old stud have a blast doing your thing, until it affects your
- 2:06:41play on the court. You know, when John got named to
- 2:06:44the All-Star team, you got people coming out of the
- 2:06:46woodwork and that's part of the downfall of social media.
- 2:06:49These guys are making a pile of money from the exposure but they
- 2:06:52all were subject to all the criticism.
- 2:06:54Well, John gets on the plane. He's celebrating, his first
- 2:06:57All-Star appearance, breaks out the bottle of Patron.
- 2:07:00He's taking a hit of it, his dad's taking a hit of it.
- 2:07:03He tries to hand it to a security guard.
- 2:07:05Who I'm very good friends with Jose on the job and he's like,
- 2:07:08not on the plane or not, and but I know his security guard
- 2:07:12doesn't Drake and everybody's like, come on man.
- 2:07:14You're a role model for kids. You can't drink tequila out of
- 2:07:17the bottle and I'm like, why not?
- 2:07:19He's out he's of legal drinking age.
- 2:07:21He's not operating a car. He's flying to the all-star
- 2:07:25game. It's not like he has a game
- 2:07:26tomorrow. Let him celebrate.
- 2:07:28But if you take it too far and now you're doing things that are
- 2:07:32putting yourself In Harm's Way like be yourself to a point
- 2:07:35where you're not in dangerous yourself and I'm not going to
- 2:07:38sugarcoat the way things are in Memphis right now, guys, it's
- 2:07:41rough. I mean they're sending 1500 FBI
- 2:07:44agents here to try to help clean it up because the crime rate is
- 2:07:48not good, the violent crime rate is not good, I mean, we had 3500
- 2:07:53cars stolen in a year, do the math.
- 2:07:56That's a lot every day and people here are just in that hey
- 2:08:02we're a blue collar grinded out city.
- 2:08:04And there's there's been a big change since you know the
- 2:08:07pandemic and people are out of work and people are are
- 2:08:11struggling and so you know, there's an easy way to make
- 2:08:13money and we all know breaking a lot can do that but When you put
- 2:08:17yourself In Harm's Way, and the point I'm bringing up, is I know
- 2:08:21about 75 people that have firearms in their vehicles, they
- 2:08:26have a license to carry them, they're legal here, but they're
- 2:08:28not getting on social media and showing that, and they're all
- 2:08:31not getting on social media with six million followers going
- 2:08:34live. You know, singing to a song and
- 2:08:37brandishing that after they've been suspended.
- 2:08:39That's where I go. Yo, you can be yourself, I don't
- 2:08:43have a problem with it. As long as you don't like put
- 2:08:46yourself In Harm's Way and to me, I always said this, if you
- 2:08:49feel like you need to bring a gun to the club, you're going to
- 2:08:52go to a different Club. Just go to a different one.
- 2:08:55Find don't go there or if you feel like you need to have that
- 2:08:59kind of protection or you want to go to the club.
- 2:09:01We're all the ladies are, I'm pretty sure you have enough
- 2:09:04money to rent out the entire floor of the team hotel and
- 2:09:07bring them to you. And then nobody knows.
- 2:09:09And then don't turn on the Instagram live.
- 2:09:12There's a way to go about it, but I can't tell people how to
- 2:09:15live their life, because if I sat here, and told you guys,
- 2:09:17when I was 25 years old, I didn't do dumb stuff all the
- 2:09:20time. I'd be the biggest liar on the
- 2:09:22planet. I did things that I probably
- 2:09:23shouldn't have gotten and should have gotten in more trouble for
- 2:09:26that. I didn't, I got lucky
- 2:09:27unfortunately, now for an athlete of that method and of
- 2:09:32that kind of notoriety, you're gonna get recognized, and you're
- 2:09:36gonna have a Target. And now you're you're talking
- 2:09:38about being around circles where in this city and I'm not trying
- 2:09:42to say we're like the hardest place on the planet or anything
- 2:09:45like that, but the that that type of life in this city is
- 2:09:48very real. And these guys don't care that.
- 2:09:51You're an NBA star, if you go in there and cross the wrong, guys,
- 2:09:54you got problems and people have kind of made that very clear to
- 2:09:58him. So you know it's see yourself,
- 2:10:00you know, throw it all away, you know, it's crazy you bring up
- 2:10:03you set 3500 cars, it's better than 3500 bodies so I would say
- 2:10:08that but you know, I not far off there either well.
- 2:10:12That's probably true too but you know, it's crazy.
- 2:10:14I got a chance recently to watch the Gilbert Arenas, 30, for 30
- 2:10:18and if nobody not and, and I didn't really get a chance to
- 2:10:22watch that because it's been out for a while.
- 2:10:25But it's now on Hulu, if anybody has Hulu get it, if you have a
- 2:10:29chance to go, watch it on the Disney, whatever the Disney app,
- 2:10:31it's great 30 for 30, it's Sensational.
- 2:10:34So on Netflix as well. It's interesting because I
- 2:10:38didn't know the story behind it until I got a chance and I used
- 2:10:41to blame Gilbert Arenas for the gun situation and it kind of was
- 2:10:46but it was in and in the story is with the NBA, the NBA is
- 2:10:51really taking a, you know, a big, you know, handle on this
- 2:10:55because of that Gilbert Arena story and Gilbert Arenas was
- 2:10:58only suspended for 50 games and obviously the back end of it, is
- 2:11:02there was an NBA player. A part of that story that went
- 2:11:05to jail for significant amount of time, because he killed
- 2:11:09somebody. So, because of the whole Gilbert
- 2:11:11Arena story, So the fact is is that the NBA is doing the right
- 2:11:15thing trying to get John Moran to kind of, try to clean this
- 2:11:19thing up before it gets worse and, and where he might not have
- 2:11:23a career, or might do something stupid, where he could be going
- 2:11:26to jail for the next 25 to Life type of, you know, situation.
- 2:11:30So, it's a, it's a terrible, it's a terrible thing that
- 2:11:33Gilbert Arenas. I mean Gilbert Arenas story.
- 2:11:36But it's even more when you have a young player of this
- 2:11:39magnitude, John Moran, who is a superstar?
- 2:11:41One of the biggest electrifying players in the NBA and he can't
- 2:11:45control his self on the court, as well as off.
- 2:11:48The court, as everybody knows, we are talking to Memphis
- 2:11:51Grizzlies by play broadcast. Hold on, let me give you a side
- 2:11:56note to that the documentary, shooting guards.
- 2:11:59Yes, both of those guys were in Memphis at different times,
- 2:12:02Javaris Crittenden, before we were the team that sent him to
- 2:12:07Washington and then Gilbert came to us, After and I didn't know
- 2:12:13that I was so shocked. With the Javaris Crittenden
- 2:12:17story. When I had interactions with
- 2:12:19that guy, should we we on our broadcast?
- 2:12:21We stopped doing the before the game you have you know, team
- 2:12:25broadcasters will go. Hey we're talking let's say,
- 2:12:27let's say we're interviewing Java before game and it's like
- 2:12:30hey Java. You guys faced the Red Sox
- 2:12:33today, how tough is it to to get Alex or to get no more Garcia,
- 2:12:38par out at that time and you're like, well, it's hard.
- 2:12:40He's sitting 347. What do you think it's easy?
- 2:12:43I'm just gonna throw him. A 87, mile an hour cookie.
- 2:12:46Fastball, I've got to move the ball in.
- 2:12:47I got to move it out. I got to change speeds.
- 2:12:49I got to see where his Hitting Zone is today.
- 2:12:51It's the same. It's like, what am I going to
- 2:12:53say to a guy? What's it like to guard?
- 2:12:54Kobe Bryant, what's hard dummy? He's Kobe Bryant.
- 2:12:57What do you think? So Javaris and I had some honest
- 2:13:01conversations, he was really bummed out.
- 2:13:03He didn't get picked by Atlanta that year and they went with HD
- 2:13:06law instead of with the second pick.
- 2:13:08We actually thought they were gonna you.
- 2:13:09They were going to take my colleague that year and steady
- 2:13:12fell into our lap. And so Javaris, when he was,
- 2:13:15here was nothing but a gentleman was great.
- 2:13:18I saw no signs of that. And I remember somebody telling
- 2:13:21me going, hey, you know that guy like when he was in LA, it was
- 2:13:24kind of tired to the Crips and I was like, your kid, like, no way
- 2:13:28like that. You just kind of you don't get
- 2:13:29that sense from me was just super easygoing polished and
- 2:13:35when you saw the documentary, it's like it's because he had
- 2:13:37nobody there to lean on and these guys made him feel
- 2:13:40welcome. We get Gilbert after and you
- 2:13:43know all that prankster stuff you saw on that documentary.
- 2:13:45He was still had some of that but it was a lot more guarded
- 2:13:49and I think he felt responsibility, it wasn't for
- 2:13:53the fact. It was yeah for the fact that
- 2:13:55you know, he's he thinks he's being funny.
- 2:13:59Not knowing that Javaris is going like hey where I'm from
- 2:14:01and Atlanta and with my boys that I run in La, we don't joke
- 2:14:05around about this stuff and so I just I'm watching this
- 2:14:09documentary and I'm going. How Wild is it to both of those
- 2:14:12guys? When I walk into the arena every
- 2:14:15day, we have every team picture and I've shown my son who's 13
- 2:14:18years old and you know, he's like, who was this guy?
- 2:14:20Well, that guy made a big mistake dude that guy Some guys
- 2:14:25stole from him. He went after him shot, missed
- 2:14:27him, or hit the woman, hit a woman and did real jail time.
- 2:14:31And about Gilbert one of the greatest players of his time.
- 2:14:34Yes, we got him at the tail end of his career.
- 2:14:36And so yeah, that that documentary, it really changed
- 2:14:40how people look at it. And so, you know, the big
- 2:14:42question with John when that thing happened in Denver was,
- 2:14:44did he bring the gun on the plane right?
- 2:14:46And you're like, well, I can't answer that.
- 2:14:49I don't know if it was on the plane or if it was in his
- 2:14:51luggage going underneath, nobody knows nobody knows that he had
- 2:14:55it somebody with him in Denver, handed to him.
- 2:14:57I don't know, Eric, but everything always screaming.
- 2:14:59So Eric the problem is with the NBA is that whole story with
- 2:15:04Gilbert Arenas, he was actually buying guns in different states
- 2:15:06and flying him in and back that back in an NBA playing.
- 2:15:10And that's why he was suspended for 50 games.
- 2:15:13He wasn't suspended for the fact that he brought a loaded gun to
- 2:15:16a locker room. I mean that to me tells me that
- 2:15:20the NBA has no control over their players and and what the
- 2:15:23whole atom. Over it and I say this and
- 2:15:25everybody knows on the show I don't call it the NBA.
- 2:15:28I call it the lja LeBron James Association because ever since
- 2:15:32LeBron, James has come to this league.
- 2:15:35He controls it, he controls the league and the pace.
- 2:15:39Is it a coinky dink? That LeBron James gets Luka
- 2:15:42doncic at the trade deadline and the Mavericks win the draft, the
- 2:15:46lottery draft. They had a 1.8% chance of
- 2:15:49winning the lottery and then win the lottery.
- 2:15:51But you watch the NHL by the way and we watched the lottery.
- 2:15:54They actually do it in front of the television like in front of
- 2:15:57the screen in the NBA you they closed the door.
- 2:15:59Do you think it's a kinky dink? That the Mavericks won the draft
- 2:16:04after losing their best player and practically giving them away
- 2:16:07to the Lakers for absolutely a bag of balls?
- 2:16:10See, the only reason I don't the only thing that I can't get down
- 2:16:14with the conspiracy theory on the draft is you got to get 13
- 2:16:17other teams to go. Yeah, we're cool.
- 2:16:19If we don't get Cooper flight, we're okay with it and it's a
- 2:16:22billion dollar, you know, multi-billion dollar company.
- 2:16:24That now, you're saying, who's I would I'm with you, but they
- 2:16:27went back to the years, the Patrick Ewing draft and growing
- 2:16:30up in the Bay Area. We're in Golden State, the worst
- 2:16:33team in illegal, like, oh my gosh, we might get Patrick
- 2:16:35Ewing, and the Word was that they put the Knicks plaque in
- 2:16:39the freezer. David Stern.
- 2:16:41Felt cold that envelope. So, every time he touched it was
- 2:16:45cold, he grabbed another one and the Warriors ended up with Chris
- 2:16:48small and which was great. But I think with the look, you
- 2:16:51think about Nicole Harrison, this is the same guy that I'm
- 2:16:54meeting when he was with Nike called him.
- 2:16:55Stephen Curry and said, hey to meet you.
- 2:16:59And he goes, yeah, I think I'm gonna go to Under Armour, who
- 2:17:01just sent Kent, Bazemore and undrafted guy at an Old
- 2:17:04Dominion. Like five cases of gear to give
- 2:17:07away Nike sweat and me over getting some extra golf for my
- 2:17:11dad, I'm gonna switch Brands here and that was that summer
- 2:17:15where Under Armour got Who they get Bryce Harper.
- 2:17:18Steph Curry, Jordan. Spieth and all the speed,
- 2:17:22undergoes. Yeah.
- 2:17:22Hey, here we go. Let's let's bring it on.
- 2:17:25So I just you know look LeBron is the the guy that stirs
- 2:17:30everything out. There's no doubt about lja but I
- 2:17:33want you to do that thing. When you're on live LJ lja,
- 2:17:37don't call it the NBA anymore. The lja that you're next Lakers,
- 2:17:40Chrisley's broadcast. This is the lja production.
- 2:17:45I like collecting a paycheck every two weeks, could you
- 2:17:52imagine that? I'm so mad at me.
- 2:17:54I think he's got some, I'm Silver's, got some hidden
- 2:17:57fighting him, we had when we had our broadcast, he came in and I
- 2:18:01swear I just thought he was this my old man or guy and this dude
- 2:18:06just went to town with. I mean it was like almost Jerry
- 2:18:09Westlife. He's one of the ugliest man
- 2:18:11you'll ever see. Dude.
- 2:18:12He's got the biggest freaking ears, his nose sticks out, like,
- 2:18:16freaking Pinocchio and the guy really kisses.
- 2:18:19Dude, he might as well get on his hands and knees, and kiss,
- 2:18:21LeBron James's ass, cuz that's what he does.
- 2:18:23I mean, every single time LeBron James is out there on social
- 2:18:29media. Oh, it's okay, it's okay, LeBron
- 2:18:31you could do whatever you want, but if it was somebody else or
- 2:18:34Kevin Durant with his Twitter feeds all seven or eight of
- 2:18:38them, hiding behind his Twitter feeds, I mean it's pathetic,
- 2:18:41dude. And here's another thing.
- 2:18:42Do we remember the Kyrie Irving's antics?
- 2:18:45The anti-semitic views that he had, isn't a hold on, isn't
- 2:18:49Adam, Silver Jewish and he just, you know, he just brushed it
- 2:18:53onto the rug, who cares? Who cares?
- 2:18:55There's no Holocaust. I mean, seriously, it's
- 2:18:58pathetic. Adam Silver needs to and I used
- 2:19:01to like Adam himself. I don't know, personally, you
- 2:19:04probably met him and that's great.
- 2:19:05All the people love him and everybody thinks he's bringing
- 2:19:08all this money and that's great and me and you can run the NBA
- 2:19:12and bring in all these, these great sponsorships and
- 2:19:14advertisements, stop it with the Roger Goodell and all these
- 2:19:17other guys, the fact is this guy lets the players run the leak.
- 2:19:22That is the problem right now. In the NBA, I've said this many,
- 2:19:25many times, if the NBA wants to be taking seriously, again, they
- 2:19:29gotta stop letting these players build their Fab 3 and and make
- 2:19:34this make the leak feel like, okay, well, I want to play in
- 2:19:38LA. So I'm gonna make a, I'm gonna
- 2:19:40make a dominant team in La. Well, I'm gonna play in Miami
- 2:19:42because I want to play for Batley.
- 2:19:44So I'm gonna bring it, Chris, Bosh, Dwayne, Wade, and LeBron
- 2:19:47James to me, the NBA has made a mockery of the league and now,
- 2:19:52this this three-point, this is three.
- 2:19:54Point contest. Now, in the regular season.
- 2:19:56It's Chuck up threes. Let's be Stuff, Curry.
- 2:20:00There's only one step Curry. So I just think it's just
- 2:20:03pathetic. I think the NBA's crap, and, and
- 2:20:06nobody cares about the regular season anymore.
- 2:20:08It's all about the playoffs. It's changed a lot.
- 2:20:11You're not wrong about that and it's You know, I obviously, I
- 2:20:15grew up in a time and you know, when the 80s NBA, it was fast.
- 2:20:19They scored, they didn't have a three-point line.
- 2:20:22I mean, you go look at some, Hillary Birds numbers and you
- 2:20:25imagine if they'd actually embrace the three I think in one
- 2:20:29of his, in the early days of the three-point line, I think there
- 2:20:32was here. Larry Bird took a total took a
- 2:20:34total of 82, threes. I mean, like you're like, this
- 2:20:38is the best shooter in the game right now.
- 2:20:40And, you know, Casey Jones is telling him, yo, dude, that's
- 2:20:44not, that's not a good shot. Step inside, take a 15 footer,
- 2:20:47whereas I will never forget this.
- 2:20:50We were in Houston and Mike Antonio was coaching the rockets
- 2:20:55at the time, and I want to say it was Nene was playing for
- 2:20:59them, and my son was pretty strict about not taking a 15
- 2:21:04footer. And you see this, dude, like is
- 2:21:06not a 3-point shooter, but he takes the boy backs out into the
- 2:21:12corner and shoots. Three?
- 2:21:14And somebody goes, why did you shoot that?
- 2:21:15He goes because I didn't want to get yelled at in practice for
- 2:21:18taking a shot. That didn't work in our
- 2:21:19analytics and I'm like, huh, it's an open 15 footer.
- 2:21:23One of the things to me that makes Shades just Alexander.
- 2:21:27So dangerous, is this dude Embraces That Elbow jump shot.
- 2:21:30So you're gonna give me a 15 foot.
- 2:21:32I'm gonna NBA player. I'm gonna make this more often
- 2:21:34than not, and I'm gonna take two points and I would lose my mind,
- 2:21:38sometimes in our broadcast this year, where we'd have a
- 2:21:41three-on-one break down by like six and guys pull up from 27
- 2:21:46feet. I'm like, yo, nobody had any
- 2:21:49chance of stopping you getting a layup?
- 2:21:51Take the two points, get back, get another stop.
- 2:21:54And if you have another fast break taking another layup.
- 2:21:56If you get into your offense and the play dictates of 3-point
- 2:22:00shot, that's great. But hunting, threes can be
- 2:22:03dangerous. Now, it can also lead to massive
- 2:22:05comeback, so I get it. But I mean not to bring up a bad
- 2:22:08subject time. You salbert had a layup to tie
- 2:22:11that game and steady gets very lucky.
- 2:22:14Stepping all the way back thinking he shot three gets the
- 2:22:17bounce of a lifetime. Whereas if you go back at the
- 2:22:20end of that, let's just say that shot misses and you're going
- 2:22:22dude. Why didn't you just tie the
- 2:22:24game? Why didn't you just take the
- 2:22:26layout that you had? You had the man on skates, you
- 2:22:28had a lean, you might get an and one.
- 2:22:30You might get fouled, get two shots, miss one, whatever.
- 2:22:33But why didn't you go all the way to the basket?
- 2:22:35Because that's not the way kids are now, and I'll tell you what,
- 2:22:38watching some of these youth basketball tournaments and I'm
- 2:22:42around the game a lot outside of my job.
- 2:22:44And I saw some youth League's and I'm like, this is the worst
- 2:22:47thing I've ever seen in my life. If you gave me five kids, one of
- 2:22:51them being one of the better players on the court.
- 2:22:53The other four, knowing out of team play Team Basketball, I'm
- 2:22:56gonna kick every teams in this League's ass, because we're
- 2:22:59gonna set back screens. We're going to set Base to Base
- 2:23:01screens. We're going to play defense, and
- 2:23:03we're gonna pass the basketball, and I promise, we'll win every
- 2:23:06game in the sleep by 15 and the one coach that did it and the
- 2:23:10league. I was kind of supervising at a
- 2:23:11facility here. They want every game by like 20
- 2:23:14points of his like, how are you? Beating everybody don't have the
- 2:23:16best athletes, like, because we play basketball, we don't play
- 2:23:19shooting contest, we don't play. Let me get a break away and try
- 2:23:23to dunk when I can't even barely get.
- 2:23:24Over the rim even though I want to try to look cool and you know
- 2:23:28that's part of it that's just like the image now for these
- 2:23:31guys and I feel I get it like they're young there's so much
- 2:23:34money off the court but to me like when game time comes who
- 2:23:38gives a flying you know what what you're right.
- 2:23:41It was what I have. All the trigger, say it Eric, I
- 2:23:44can't I just but like, look, Jerry West was the greatest
- 2:23:49Weaver of the four letter bomb I've ever heard.
- 2:23:51In fact, one day at a practice thought I was the TV guy and
- 2:23:55they said something that pissed him off and he wove the f word
- 2:23:59into a paragraph, that I'm pretty sure.
- 2:24:01The only other words involved in said paragraph, were you us them
- 2:24:07and paycheck and sign and basically every other word was
- 2:24:11for effort or mfer? And I was like, wow, that was
- 2:24:15impressive and I didn't like walk away scared.
- 2:24:17I was like I'm impressed and then you see the showtime piece
- 2:24:20and he goes. That's not who I am.
- 2:24:22I'm not like that. No, raise my hand.
- 2:24:24I said I begged Effort. I have evidence of the contrary
- 2:24:27but like I like watching that you would just you just want to
- 2:24:32go. What are we doing?
- 2:24:33What are we teaching kids? And, you know, like learn how to
- 2:24:37play the game and you watch to me.
- 2:24:39That's why to make Oklahoma City.
- 2:24:40So dangerous, they play the game, they play the game of
- 2:24:44basketball, they play as a team, they move the ball, they share
- 2:24:46the basketball. They don't just constantly
- 2:24:49settle for threes, they will move and defend.
- 2:24:52I mean, like, and what planet did we ever think?
- 2:24:55Alex Caruso would be a bright star in the playoffs?
- 2:24:58When this dude? Like he walks out there, that
- 2:25:01dude walked into an open gym and Memphis, they'd be like, yo,
- 2:25:05who's the white boy? He can't play and he would kick
- 2:25:07everybody's ass because he would play defense and be able to
- 2:25:10shoot but he plays hard and I think we've just gotten away
- 2:25:14from some of that because of all the extra stuff and you know,
- 2:25:18look that it makes me sound like the old guy in my neighborhood
- 2:25:21yelling. Get off my lawn, but I like the
- 2:25:24game when The game is played with ball movement and all these
- 2:25:28people that used to kill the Warriors and they're like, I
- 2:25:30hate the ways they like for 19 out of 20 years, they didn't
- 2:25:33make the playoffs, they grew their team organically, right?
- 2:25:35They get a bag full of money when the TV contract comes So,
- 2:25:40Kevin Durant goes, hey, I want to go play with them because I
- 2:25:43played with Steph in the Olympics.
- 2:25:44Now, everybody hates him, but you watch the way they play,
- 2:25:47they move the basketball, they share the basketball, they're
- 2:25:51embracing a little bit of the new style, but they will still
- 2:25:53go to the basket and you watch Steph and like all these people
- 2:25:57like, oh, I hate Steph Curry. First thing I say is, why why do
- 2:26:00you hate a guy that does everything the right way?
- 2:26:02The same dribble routine every day, I plead the works his ass
- 2:26:05off every oh, because he's Eric asked because he asked about
- 2:26:09Steph Curry. Ask Ariel about stuff.
- 2:26:15Asked Arrow about Steph Curry. Why don't you ask your question?
- 2:26:18I'm not gonna get into this. We got, we got a lot of other
- 2:26:21segments to go. I am not gonna ever give me to
- 2:26:24talk off air or another show. Okay, well, get Eric on the
- 2:26:28video. Feed a lot sooner than later and
- 2:26:30we could talk about this. Yes, we'll get him on the show
- 2:26:32again. And then the next couple of
- 2:26:34weeks, go ahead. No.
- 2:26:35Are mine is honestly like I You see it from a different
- 2:26:41perspective and the one thing you've answered a lot of
- 2:26:44questions that we've, we've all had in our private chat and and
- 2:26:48certain things. But what do you think?
- 2:26:50Like when you get guys to that standard of how they can be
- 2:26:54great? how do you think the people
- 2:26:58around them and and you see their following, you see their
- 2:27:01Entourage and what have you How much do you think that affects?
- 2:27:07Kind of what they do. Are they?
- 2:27:08Yes men. Do they do they call them out.
- 2:27:11And how do you think that plays a part in who they are or what
- 2:27:15they become? Okay, I was having a hard time
- 2:27:19hearing the question. Can you relay the question to me
- 2:27:21real quick? Yeah, no, I did.
- 2:27:23I just said The Entourage that they have and the people around
- 2:27:27them. Oh yeah.
- 2:27:28You think that plays a part in who they are and what they
- 2:27:31become or are they playing up to that part?
- 2:27:36Yeah. You know that's a great question
- 2:27:38because I'm sure you saw a lot of it and you know it's hard to
- 2:27:41walk away from me. Friends like your friends are
- 2:27:43your friends, the guys you grew up with and you want to you find
- 2:27:46a on boatload a success and you want to take care of people and
- 2:27:50I get that but Look, so many of your guys have to, you know,
- 2:27:55understand that you are not run up and down your, your block and
- 2:28:00more and, you know, protecting each other's backs.
- 2:28:02There's a brand, there's an image, there's a, there's a
- 2:28:05different lifestyle ahead and and the quote unquote, keeping
- 2:28:09it real. You have to evolve.
- 2:28:12I'm sorry. Like I have a friend of mine
- 2:28:13that if you would have picked the one guy out of my friend
- 2:28:16group that was going to become a near billionaire.
- 2:28:18He would have been the last guy I picked but he did and I we
- 2:28:23don't see him as much. He has business meetings, he has
- 2:28:26exclusive places. He goes and it's much as he'll
- 2:28:29hang out with all of us again and none of us are, you know,
- 2:28:32sticking our fingers in our ears at a nice restaurant or
- 2:28:36anything. But you know, like he invites
- 2:28:38you out and you might meet a billionaire, you might need Tony
- 2:28:41Romo, you might meet a guy that you know, is just a regular
- 2:28:45dude. And in the end we're all regular
- 2:28:47people but When you are a guy that is in the Public Image and
- 2:28:51between an unknown billionaire and an athlete billionaires
- 2:28:55astronomical. So if you can't at somebody's
- 2:28:58body realized that then to me you got the athlete himself to
- 2:29:03me. Like, let's use jobs, an
- 2:29:05example, his best buddy is the one.
- 2:29:07Everybody's kind of pointing the finger at, and he's the one who
- 2:29:10got kicked out of, you know, for a year because you walked on the
- 2:29:14court. And I said, I'm like look, he
- 2:29:17can't walk on the court. I know he's your boy.
- 2:29:19I know, two guys on the team are talking trash doing.
- 2:29:22You want to protect them. We got guys for that.
- 2:29:24That's not your role. He is boy.
- 2:29:27Right. And the funny thing was, the guy
- 2:29:29wanted to challenge James Johnson.
- 2:29:31He's like pointing at James Johnson, who was playing the
- 2:29:34Pacers James Johnson's, a seventh degree black belt and on
- 2:29:37the air I said and I knew who it was but I couldn't throw them
- 2:29:40under the bus. And I go, well, there's a fan
- 2:29:42that it apparently wants to fight James Johnson and that
- 2:29:45would be the last mistake he ever makes because James, Will
- 2:29:49knock him out where he stands and he may not ever get up.
- 2:29:51And James is a big dude? Like you forget like some of
- 2:29:55these fans that talk trash, that NBA players, MLB players and NFL
- 2:30:00players, you're like, Yo dude, that guy six foot five and 200
- 2:30:04and 250 pounds. You're five 11 1 80, he trains
- 2:30:08his body every single day, you pound Coors Light and eat
- 2:30:11Cheetos. Like they're going out of style,
- 2:30:13he's gonna break you in half before you blink, I don't care.
- 2:30:16Well, it doesn't matter. Oh, we know some guys, we know
- 2:30:20they're athletes but you know, there's the gray parties of the
- 2:30:22world that you just want to. Yeah, he tries to get into the
- 2:30:25Mixed Martial Arts world and increases.
- 2:30:27Oh yeah. Look I wouldn't want to.
- 2:30:29I wouldn't want to fight Greg Hardy but I wouldn't want to
- 2:30:32fight Greg Hardy, but I sure as hell would rather fight Greg
- 2:30:35Hardy than a true professional fight hurt.
- 2:30:38You great card is a bitch he beats up women.
- 2:30:40He's a bitch. Okay.
- 2:30:41He's just a big mom girl Mongrel whatever they call them.
- 2:30:45He's to me. He I don't even know why he even
- 2:30:49stepped into the Octagon because he every single time he stepped
- 2:30:52in the Octagon he was he was horrible man.
- 2:30:55He what happened, but that's right.
- 2:31:00Okay, I mean well Mark astronaut doesn't even know his name.
- 2:31:06Is there a crazy or human being on the planet.
- 2:31:08By the way, that by the way, the Jets 3430 was great.
- 2:31:11It was back. All right.
- 2:31:13Thank you. Have an Entourage.
- 2:31:18To me and look we had one of the most tragic stories ever with
- 2:31:22the Lorenzen Wright. Murder by his ex-wife and her
- 2:31:24lover, horrible story, but but ran before that one of the
- 2:31:28reasons the money was running out.
- 2:31:30He could never say no to his buddies and his buddies didn't
- 2:31:34necessarily get him in trouble, but you're paying your buddies
- 2:31:37to basically be your buddy. Like, if I go win the Power Ball
- 2:31:41tomorrow and I believe me I'd love to.
- 2:31:43I don't expect five of my buddies to be on my doorstep
- 2:31:46going. So, do I get an 80,000 year
- 2:31:48contract? Nobody like hell, no, dude.
- 2:31:50You go get a job and we can hang out, I'll pay for every night
- 2:31:54out. I'll pay for dinner, I'll pay
- 2:31:55for trips, but you better be worse.
- 2:31:57Stop it. Eric if you had if you won the
- 2:32:01lottery and you had like 200 million dollars, you're

- 2:32:09you on the whole show, but I want to get you guys.
- 2:32:12I want to say something man, if you made 200 and 250 or 200
- 2:32:16million dollars in a lottery and you got all your Friends.

- 2:32:21million dollars, you through 250 million dollars, 200 million
- 2:32:25dollars. What are you gonna do with that
- 2:32:27money? I mean, seriously, you're not

- 2:32:31and your family, you get and you enjoy your life.
- 2:32:34I mean seriously. You only live once Illuminati,
- 2:32:37baby. I tell you this and I know you
- 2:32:41gotta let me go, I won the lottery.
- 2:32:43You know, the weirdest thing I do.
- 2:32:44I would have a brand new pair of socks for every day.
- 2:32:47Well, every single day. Put on new socks.
- 2:32:49I think you'd have a girl every single day.
- 2:32:51Putting on the socks for me. You beat Steven Seagal.
- 2:32:58You have a different girl in every room.
- 2:33:03Well, that's a great way to like she would be good.
- 2:33:06Anyways, Eric your fantastic. Let's get you on the show, The
- 2:33:14Season's almost over. Let's get you on like a month
- 2:33:17and we'll get John and maybe, and you'll stay on.

- 2:33:22you. You stay on.
- 2:33:23You hang out. You'll be a guest on the show
- 2:33:25for the whole show. How about that?
- 2:33:27I would love it, guys. Thank you so much.
- 2:33:28I apologize for all the confusion and I love the Candor
- 2:33:32and the honesty of the program. Always, always appreciate being
- 2:33:35on. Thank you.
- 2:33:36Eric hasseltine, he's fantastic. The one and only the Grizzlies
- 2:33:42Maniac. Oh well, I'm the maniac.
- 2:33:44He's just the grizzly, you know, he's the grizzly bear.
- 2:33:46Anyway, he was fantastic. Thank you, Derek hassle.
- 2:33:50Tom I know he's a very busy man and his video wasn't working
- 2:33:54very, very well but he came on the audio end of it and he gave
- 2:33:58us really, really good content Speedy.
- 2:34:01A lot of stuff you can shop and post it up on social media.
- 2:34:04I remember there was one time he was at his car.
- 2:34:06I think the second time he was on the show but then cut out
- 2:34:08like that. I think he did actually mention
- 2:34:10that Lorenzen Wright off these. I'll do that.
- 2:34:12That's another horrible thing. Yeah he was telling the story
- 2:34:15from his perspective encountered some of the stuff.
- 2:34:17Well I I actually I was studying the there was different things
- 2:34:21that came out about a she just by the way, his wife just got
- 2:34:25indicted and she's Jail for 25 years to life.
- 2:34:29I mean, it was a long, long time before they can pin it on her
- 2:34:33and then it took like like 10 years before she, she got
- 2:34:38indicted, it's a horrible, horrible story, and Lorenzo
- 2:34:41Wright was one of the nicest people.
- 2:34:43I never met Lorenzo but he obviously, Eric did and said
- 2:34:46when he was one of the nicest, most careful care, uh, caring
- 2:34:51people, you'll ever meet. So, anyways, let's get into it.
- 2:34:55We got a lot to go. We call this King of the Hill.
- 2:34:57Here's the King of the Hill. This Bobby is the Beltline you
- 2:35:03never ever. Hit below that.
- 2:35:05Not that kind of King of the Hill you dumb.
- 2:35:07This is King of the Hill. All right, ladies and gentlemen
- 2:35:13we do this every single week. How many how many weeks have we
- 2:35:16done? This is it's been two.
- 2:35:18Because two or third week. I think like a third week.
- 2:35:20It's yeah. So it's been two weeks and now
- 2:35:23this is the third. Yeah.
- 2:35:24So guys, welcome the King of the Hill.
- 2:35:26This is a competition where everyone competes to have a
- 2:35:30chance to take on the king and the King has been the king the
- 2:35:34entire time. Arrow is one every single one of
- 2:35:36these and we have three rounds and basically there's different
- 2:35:39trivia tonight is NFL themed on who's gonna compete Arrow.
- 2:35:43As the king will decide who are the two finalists to make it to
- 2:35:46the joust in round two different topic.
- 2:35:49And I will pick who he faces in the final round and then all of
- 2:35:53us as if it's a democracy, will vote on it.
- 2:35:56The king stays the king or not. You guys ready to play King of
- 2:36:01the Hill. Yes, what do you want to cheer
- 2:36:07here? Good for me, good for you.
- 2:36:08It's good for both. It's good for.
- 2:36:10All right, you got a million jobs.
- 2:36:11You could have anything. I, you know.
- 2:36:13All right. I got one for you.
- 2:36:14A lot of ladies. There you go.
- 2:36:16Let's go. Yeah, where is Nippon?
- 2:36:17Where I tell them to come out, Kevin.
- 2:36:19The wits you want to jerk me off?
- 2:36:22Hahaha. Get in here man.
- 2:36:27Nothing you gotta stop it. You know doodie dodging.
- 2:36:30Here, Cock-A-Doodle, can I touch it?
- 2:36:35All right. So guys, here we go.
- 2:36:37First round, we have the peasant fight.
- 2:36:40My dog wants your pussycat, a chance to fight over the best
- 2:36:44running backs in NFL history, the way it goes.
- 2:36:49It's just gonna go one person. Say it running back.
- 2:36:52Explain why? Briefly next person goes.
- 2:36:54And we're just gonna name three and we will randomly start with
- 2:36:58whoever the king decides to start with.
- 2:37:01All right, I'm gonna go Speedy. All right, I'm gonna go Barry
- 2:37:03Sanders. I think Barry Sanders we talked
- 2:37:05about a lot of played on a really crappy offensive line.
- 2:37:08They had one few potential Hall of Famer with llamas brown, but
- 2:37:11they had no quarterback, they barely any offensive line and he
- 2:37:14was putting up the numbers like crazy.
- 2:37:15Basically, definitely the most athletic shifty is running backs
- 2:37:18over there ever seen either. And I got so much on such a bad
- 2:37:22team. I got to go him fish.
- 2:37:25So, sweetness Walter. Payton absolutely has to be
- 2:37:29considered one of the greatest running backs of all time, 85
- 2:37:31Bears, not to mention everything.
- 2:37:33You did earlier in his career on teams that maybe weren't as
- 2:37:35successful kind of the pioneer of the modern running back.
- 2:37:39Walter Hayden Java. I'm gonna go Gale Sayers, Gale
- 2:37:45Sayers obviously from being from Nebraska, doing what he did and
- 2:37:49how he accomplished. All the things he was come back
- 2:37:51Player of the Year, offensive player of the year scoring
- 2:37:54leader. In 65, just an absolute Dynamic
- 2:37:57player. All right.
- 2:37:59Mister you know what? Tommy poops himself?
- 2:38:02I'm gonna go with OJ Simpson. Um, look the men OJ Simpson has
- 2:38:10been one of the best running back, or was one of the best
- 2:38:12running backs of all time and killer pick.
- 2:38:15I mean, I see what you did there.
- 2:38:19I see what you did there fish. I caught on but um basically you
- 2:38:23know, I I'm coming here. I can only see half your kind of
- 2:38:26put my face in the camera here. Gonna move my mic over a little
- 2:38:28bit. It's on this camera right here.
- 2:38:30Let's move this a little bit but all right.
- 2:38:32Yeah, basically, tell us about why the Jews is loose?
- 2:38:35Well, this, thank you said, it's a very killer pick.
- 2:38:37I mean really one of the most dominant running backs of all
- 2:38:40time really just put like nobody knew how to stop pad the the
- 2:38:45bad. Nobody know how to stop the stat
- 2:38:47sheet like Mister OJ Simpson right here.
- 2:38:49And oh no I should be still going you so see me no help you
- 2:38:54better know all right there we go.
- 2:38:55Perfect. Yeah.
- 2:38:56And this and this like Please. Oh yeah, honestly very very
- 2:39:01dominant and OJ Simpson. There we go.
- 2:39:04All right, back to Speedy. All right I'll go LaDainian
- 2:39:07Tomlinson I think the best running back in the 2000s.
- 2:39:09Past catching guy is in addition to being one of the most
- 2:39:12electric Runners. I think a secondary move from
- 2:39:14his Duke to spin with some of the best we've ever seen on a
- 2:39:18Chargers. I really resurrecting that
- 2:39:19Chargers team from, I know they had a Super Bowl but they were
- 2:39:22like pretty pretty franchise. After Dan Fouts retired besides
- 2:39:26that, one Super Bowl, kind of resident in them.
- 2:39:28I think the most electric one I've ever seen in my time
- 2:39:30watching football as a Pure Runner and also over.
- 2:39:35Well, I'm not gonna disagree with the receiver part, but best
- 2:39:37in the early 2000s, I'm going with Adrian Peterson, Adrian
- 2:39:42Peterson, one of the best running backs I've ever seen in
- 2:39:45my entire life, bruising running back through the tackles with
- 2:39:48lightning speed, came back from an ACL.
- 2:39:51And what six months to run for 2000 yards, one of the most
- 2:39:56amazing feats of athleticism anyone's ever done.
- 2:39:59I still never forget him torturing all of all the Giants
- 2:40:03every single time they faced him.
- 2:40:04I went to one of the games, where you scored three,
- 2:40:06touchdowns always blew up the Giants.
- 2:40:09Well, that's who. But I was on a phone call there.
- 2:40:12No. All right.
- 2:40:13All right. You don't have to tell anybody
- 2:40:15that. Go ahead.
- 2:40:16Nobody cares. All right.
- 2:40:18Stop Adrian Peterson. Moving on to Jabba, I'm gonna go
- 2:40:24Jim Brown, I'm gonna go Jim Brown because of what he's
- 2:40:28accomplished and people don't understand too.
- 2:40:31He was in the champion in 64, Most Valuable Player three times
- 2:40:36all. So they don't understand that.
- 2:40:39He was literally one of the best lacrosse players ever to at the
- 2:40:43University of Syracuse. And what he did is absolutely
- 2:40:49amazing eight-time. First Team, all pro like Jim
- 2:40:53Brown has to be there. All right, Tommy, I am going
- 2:40:57with Marshall Faulk, Marshall three times.
- 2:41:01Yeah, three times in a row, offensive player of the year.
- 2:41:04One time being an NFL MVP, the man was phenomenal.
- 2:41:08He was very much a key piece and to that Saint Louis team.
- 2:41:10And very, very like I said, to keep peace and just overall,
- 2:41:14Reinventing that team and getting them to a Super Bowl and
- 2:41:17Marshall Faulk, just dominant money back in the early early
- 2:41:212000s, early or late 90s, some going on March, 4th, give me
- 2:41:25one. Give me one running back of
- 2:41:27that. You would think is one of the
- 2:41:29greatest of all time. I'm gonna go with my, I'm gonna
- 2:41:33go with my guy Emmett Smith, obviously, three times your bull
- 2:41:36Champion. Most of the valuable player, 14,
- 2:41:39first time all pro a Time Pro Bowl.
- 2:41:42I'm going Ms. Smith man. One of the best ever to do to do
- 2:41:46it. All right, Speedy, give me your
- 2:41:48final one. All right, last one I'm gonna go
- 2:41:49with Kurtis Martin Curtis. Martin one of the best running
- 2:41:51backs late 90s, early 2000s with the Jets steady with the Jets
- 2:41:54for a while with Bill Parcells there and all the different
- 2:41:56coaching in quarterback. Turnover that they had over
- 2:41:58there very consistent year to year very efficient Runner as
- 2:42:01well and it fantastic skill set as well.
- 2:42:05I'm going to go with a screwball because Nathan stole, my pants.
- 2:42:08Of course he did. I'll go with someone who didn't
- 2:42:12play to normally have these stats.
- 2:42:14And normally you wouldn't then mention him if he wasn't the
- 2:42:17greatest anyone's ever seen, do it.
- 2:42:19It was Bo Jackson Bo Jackson the most impressive running back.
- 2:42:23Most people have ever seen bow over the top is still something
- 2:42:28people that remember over the top is a phrase that is coined
- 2:42:32that he created when he was a running back in college.
- 2:42:36He is one of the most powerful and impressive athletes we've
- 2:42:39ever seen in multiple sports, but especially on the football
- 2:42:43field at running back Bo Jackson.
- 2:42:46Java Java. Oh my go, Earl Campbell.
- 2:42:49Oh my goal. Earl Campbell in and the fact of
- 2:42:52kind of what he presented in the way he did it. you know,
- 2:42:58obviously playing at Texas won, the Heisman unanimous
- 2:43:01All-American obviously, Most valuable player in 79.
- 2:43:05I he ran. That was like the big pads.
- 2:43:08When that was like, when it's started happening and Earl
- 2:43:13Campbell was an absolute monster.
- 2:43:16All right, Tommy finishes up, I'm going with Eric Dickerson,
- 2:43:18not really just one of the best running backs of all time one of
- 2:43:24the honestly very unfortunate that he didn't get the most
- 2:43:27playoff success which is why you know he don't unfortunately
- 2:43:30didn't get himself a ring but however Mr. Eric Dickerson's
- 2:43:34gonna be, you know, he's gonna be up there for me.
- 2:43:37Number three, All right, arrow. Make your choice who moves on to
- 2:43:43the jazzed. All right I got Speedy
- 2:43:46definitely Speedy's. Definitely the guy and like I
- 2:43:50told you fish. I like your I like the the three
- 2:43:52guys you pick but you're hosting at.
- 2:43:54Like I can't really have you move on.
- 2:43:56If if you ask me right now I would pick you second.
- 2:43:58I think you at the second best. So, but I'm gonna go with Java.
- 2:44:02All right, speeding Java. Move on.
- 2:44:04I'll take that compliment from His Highness in this game and
- 2:44:09move forwards. Everyone else you are
- 2:44:11eliminated, Tommy and Nathan. Thanks for playing you guys
- 2:44:13could pop off to the backstage moving on.
- 2:44:16So, by the way, just wanna I wanna give a shout out, by the
- 2:44:20way. Jim Brown is the greatest Hemet.
- 2:44:22Barry Sanders of the two greatest running backs of all
- 2:44:25time, then I would say in pink, Jim Brown myself, and then
- 2:44:28Walter so yeah, Hayden. Yeah, three, top three.
- 2:44:31Yeah that's right. So Jim Thorpe too.
- 2:44:37He was great, he was great running back, second round, the
- 2:44:39Jaws this one's a fun one best special teams players of all
- 2:44:46time. This could be kickers, punters
- 2:44:49return, men Gunners. I guess if you want to include
- 2:44:53them I don't think anyone's doing that but you could.
- 2:44:56So any special teams guys at all, top three.
- 2:45:03Let's leave it off with the king who goes first king.
- 2:45:05I'm gonna go stop. Oh, I got to go Devin Hester.
- 2:45:13I've got to go Devin Hester with, with the fact of his
- 2:45:18Returns on punts and kickoffs, and having the most, Returns for
- 2:45:24touchdowns that hasn't even been touched, which I don't think
- 2:45:27it'll ever be touched. Now, with the way they've
- 2:45:29changed the rules. And I think that's just one that
- 2:45:32will never be touched ever again.
- 2:45:35Guys Speedy. All right, I'll take out of
- 2:45:36venator for this. Obviously, watch kicker, a great
- 2:45:39longevity too. Even after his career at the
- 2:45:41Patriots, obviously, doing with the Colts resurrecting, after
- 2:45:43the Mike vanderjagt, the Buckle in the playoffs resurrecting
- 2:45:46that team winning a Super Bowl there.
- 2:45:48And then even later on too later in his career with the Colts
- 2:45:50have when Andrew Luck was there, he still had some really good
- 2:45:52numbers. Top 10 numbers for kickers even
- 2:45:54at almost 40 years old. So gotta go with vintage.
- 2:45:58Job. Gonna go, Justin Tucker,
- 2:46:01obviously whether he's he's in the massage room or not.
- 2:46:05Doesn't matter what he did on the field, we don't care about
- 2:46:07that but his numbers speak for himself and how his longevity
- 2:46:11and everything he did. You know longest field goal and
- 2:46:15everything that he's done, just in Tucker's in the conversation,
- 2:46:19I'll go the different returner Dante Hall, another one early
- 2:46:232000s, the Kansas City Chiefs that was very electric, a little
- 2:46:26before, Devin Hester, not as good as Devin Hester overall,
- 2:46:28but still very Shifty. Great return guy, great Speed,
- 2:46:31and Agility, then was very fun to watch.
- 2:46:33I only got to see him kind of later in his career, but one of
- 2:46:36the most electric guys Yeah, the human joystick back to Jabba.
- 2:46:41And I'm gonna, I'm kind of, kind of sway this because it's a
- 2:46:46little different. I'm gonna go Pat McAfee, Oh
- 2:46:49because of what he's done, not only on the field to how he made
- 2:46:53that position, kind of sexy. and what he did in, you know,
- 2:46:59blowing guys up on the sidelines and just having that
- 2:47:02personality, I think he made special teams sexy and I think
- 2:47:06that's that is a value that we look at and I love my guy from
- 2:47:11Seward Nebraska and Sam Cooke, who punted forever, but it's not
- 2:47:15a sexy, but Pat McAfee did All right I'll round it out with a
- 2:47:19very another very good long distance kicker as well.
- 2:47:21Sebastian Janikowski one of the few kickers that were drafted in
- 2:47:24the first round had a great career with the Raiders too long
- 2:47:27distance. I think it like five 60 yard
- 2:47:29field goals before like ever. Now everyone's doing it I think
- 2:47:31he really was like the Raiders were terrible team but like you
- 2:47:35always like oh Jetta Kowski sent another record breaking another
- 2:47:38record because he had the longest one for a while until
- 2:47:40Matt Prater. I believe was one that broke.
- 2:47:42It was 64 and then talk about good.
- 2:47:43Yes. And like he got kicking the out
- 2:47:47too. He's kicking out of freaking
- 2:47:49baseball field. A lot of his career in Oakland
- 2:47:51at the Oakland Coliseum, which I think made it very impressive as
- 2:47:54a whole making those kicks that long a lefty kicker to, you
- 2:47:57know, you don't see a lot of those either.
- 2:47:58So I'm going to go Janet Kowski around it out.
- 2:48:01All right arrow. You forgot Slater By the way,
- 2:48:04for the Patriots. All right.
- 2:48:07I forgot Ray guy. The only hunter in the Hall of
- 2:48:10Fame as well. Yeah Slater has been the best
- 2:48:12special teams guy over the last 10 years he just retired.
- 2:48:16So um I'm gonna go with Speedy. I I would not put Pat macafee
- 2:48:21there at all. I mean, I understand he's sexy
- 2:48:24but not sexy enough to be the greatest.
- 2:48:26One of the greatest special teams guys of all time, this
- 2:48:30might be all right. So this is what we're gonna do
- 2:48:32now I'm gonna bring everybody back in and we're gonna put you
- 2:48:36down below over here. Perfectly just like this.
- 2:48:41It looks so good in that little shot on his phone.
- 2:48:43The voters to see if the king stays the king or not.
- 2:48:48Let's show the Speedy beat his ass.
- 2:48:52Beat his ass Speedy. Let's go eat.
- 2:48:57Let's go Speedy. Let's go.
- 2:48:59All right. Nice words of encouragement.
- 2:49:01Nothing. Here we go.
- 2:49:03Round three. Take on the king.
- 2:49:06What's the topic best coaches in NFL history, best coaches, same
- 2:49:15rules. Apply the king you chooses.
- 2:49:19If you want to go first or second, well, I'm gonna go
- 2:49:22first. Because I I have to go Bill
- 2:49:26Belichick, the greatest coach of all time.
- 2:49:29No questions six championships. Yes.
- 2:49:32Yeah, Tom Brady. But what he did with the
- 2:49:34Patriots and really he went from the Browns who he never went
- 2:49:37with the Browns, then he was a defensive coin.
- 2:49:40He won two titles with the if you want two titles with the
- 2:49:43Giants, just think about it. He's won eight Rings.
- 2:49:46Eight rings as a coach as a defensive and obviously a
- 2:49:50quarterback coach with the New York Giants and then he goes to
- 2:49:53the Jets. He works under Bill Parcells,
- 2:49:55one of the one of the greats, no question.
- 2:49:57And then Bill Belichick makes a name for himself all the way
- 2:50:00with the New England Patriots winning six titles.
- 2:50:02He's the one who drafted the great Tom Brady.
- 2:50:04He's the one that really I mean, the AFC East Was Won by the
- 2:50:09Patriots for like 21 years. I mean, the dominance of Bill
- 2:50:12Belichick can't be, you know, can't be spoiled.
- 2:50:14Bill Belichick, I'll take tomsula.
- 2:50:16Is my first one winningest coach right now and NFL history.
- 2:50:18Also coaching great quarterbacks obviously Dan Marino and Johnny
- 2:50:20Unitas, but Johnny Unitas like a great longevity moving from the
- 2:50:25end of the Baltimore and the end of tenure into Indianapolis too.
- 2:50:28And then Miami too coaching in Miami with Dan Marino after the
- 2:50:32and I see the perfect season. You have to mention the perfect
- 2:50:35season, when the 72 Dolphins, the only teams ever achieve that
- 2:50:37that great defense that they had probably coached I would say at
- 2:50:41least 30 Hall of Famers on between those two teams.
- 2:50:43So, I would go down Shula as my first one.
- 2:50:47Errol Vince Lombardi, the party trophy, Green Bay Packers from
- 2:50:521959 and 60 67. I mean, six division titles,
- 2:50:57three NFL championships. I coach Bart Starr, some of the
- 2:51:01greatest teams we've ever seen and one of the greatest Minds
- 2:51:04the NFL has ever seen. I mean, everybody keeps talking
- 2:51:07about the Green Bay Packers and all the great quarterbacks they
- 2:51:09had. Well, this guy was the greatest
- 2:51:11mind in Packers history. He really redefined the coaching
- 2:51:17position and everybody was trying to catch up to Lombardi
- 2:51:20and Lombardi was the greatest until Bill Belichick taken that
- 2:51:23spot. So I'm going the one and only
- 2:51:25that's my party. All right, I'll take for my
- 2:51:27second one, I'll take Bill Walsh, one of the offence of
- 2:51:30innovators in this game. A lot of the West Coast Concepts
- 2:51:32that are used by Andy Reid and other great coaches.
- 2:51:34And today's game bill was the guy that pioneered and obviously
- 2:51:37doing with two different quarterbacks with Joe, Montana
- 2:51:38then went Steve Young Jerry Rice.
- 2:51:40The greatest receiver of all time with the greatest football
- 2:51:42player of all time and adjusted as well from the pre-salt era.
- 2:51:47The salary cap era too and still putting together some contenders
- 2:51:49with the Niners as well. Winning the Super Bowl in 95
- 2:51:52when they got Deion Sanders. So I gonna go Bill Walsh on this
- 2:51:55one. One of the more Innovative
- 2:51:56coaches. My final one is gotta go.
- 2:52:01I, I know everybody's gonna look at this.
- 2:52:03But Bill Parsons Kyle, Shanahan Bill Parcells?
- 2:52:07I mean, the tree that he has had just think about it.
- 2:52:10Tom Coughlin Bill, Belichick, Sean Payton.
- 2:52:14You name the trees, probably the greatest Tree in NFL history.
- 2:52:17Go look at the Championships. It doesn't lie two championships
- 2:52:21with the Giants everywhere. He's gone.
- 2:52:22Go look at the defensive players that he is drafted.
- 2:52:25They're all-time greats. The guy is one of the greatest
- 2:52:28defensive minds of all time. He really redefine the
- 2:52:31defensive. The defensive head coach
- 2:52:33quarterback type of leader in and what he did over there with
- 2:52:38the New York Giants and then everywhere, he went, Dallas
- 2:52:40Jets. Go look at the teams in the very
- 2:52:42short time. He turned those teams into
- 2:52:44playoffs and Championship contending teams, But he never
- 2:52:47stayed there long enough to win titles in those places, but I
- 2:52:51absolutely believe he's in my top three Bill Parcells.
- 2:52:54All right, the last one I'll take is a Chuck Noll when for
- 2:52:57super, super bowls with the Steelers resurrecting that team.
- 2:52:59They were a poverty franchise for a while in the first like,
- 2:53:02probably 30 years of their existence.
- 2:53:04They had the hybrid team with the eagles, they were terrible
- 2:53:06up until that 70s Dynasty and arguably a lot of the greatest
- 2:53:09teams ever both on offense and defense the Steel Curtain with
- 2:53:12some Hall of Famers on that. Obviously Terry Bradshaw Lynn
- 2:53:15Swann. John, Stallworth Hall of Fame
- 2:53:16guys. Franco Harris, rest in peace,
- 2:53:18Franco. Harris, arguably, the greatest
- 2:53:21one of the greatest teams ever probably that 76 season.
- 2:53:23Might have been the greatest team on paper with that Steel
- 2:53:26Curtain defense, all around another guy that probably
- 2:53:28coached 30 Halls in terms of an all-around greatest teams, In
- 2:53:34terms of an all-around statistical and talent driven
- 2:53:36team, you could definitely make that case with that 76 deal.
- 2:53:39Last using your analytics on some such lies man.
- 2:53:42Such lies. No.
- 2:53:43All right, so we have Errol with Bella, check Lombardy and
- 2:53:47parcel's and Speedy with Don Shula, the wall and Chuck Noll.
- 2:53:53All right, I'm going with Errol, that's exactly the top three.
- 2:53:57I, I think I would have probably had those two at the top two.
- 2:54:02I thought it was either between Parcells, or Walsh for three,
- 2:54:06and I just remember certain game where Parcells handed it to
- 2:54:10Walsh pretty well. So I would have went with him
- 2:54:13over him. So I'm going with their role in
- 2:54:15this one. Let's go to Tommy with your job,
- 2:54:18but you're back Java. I, you know what?
- 2:54:21I I want to go a speedy because I want Arrow to lose everything.
- 2:54:29but, Lombardi has to be in there like that.
- 2:54:33That is in love, Speedy's analytics on everything.
- 2:54:36But I think exactly the three that Arrow had like, I I love
- 2:54:42Speedy's in how he created a concept. but, Harold, I hate to
- 2:54:49admit this and I'm gonna give you this, this one.
- 2:54:52You you actually, I was proud of you.
- 2:54:54I was proud of you on this one. But all right, so two votes To
- 2:54:58None, Tommy. Yeah, I'm gonna go there.
- 2:55:00I'll Speedy your analytical with the coaches are, of course, Top
- 2:55:03Notch with everything that you put down in front of me.
- 2:55:06And I do, of course agree with you on a lot of things.
- 2:55:08We said, what? Chuck Noll and Don, Shula butt.
- 2:55:11It's really hard to agree disagree.
- 2:55:12That, Vince Lombardi. And Belichick aren't the number
- 2:55:15one in two when it comes to head coaches.
- 2:55:17So I'm at the other girl, All right, arrow, guess what?
- 2:55:22That means. You don't have to hear from
- 2:55:24this. Oh, come on.
- 2:55:25No, I was gonna An arrow. So it's a clean sweep.
- 2:55:31Oh man, a clean sweep Speedy. You keep taking your shots of
- 2:55:35the king and you keep coming up. I like, I like facing off with
- 2:55:40Speedy, but the fact that he had the nerve to say, that, that 76
- 2:55:43Pittsburgh team was one of the greatest of all.
- 2:55:46That's, that's a joke. That's not true.
- 2:55:47Not true. Not true at all.
- 2:55:49Not true. I would, I wouldn't, I wouldn't
- 2:55:51go that far. One of the greatest teams of all
- 2:55:55time. I mean they're I mean, they're
- 2:55:57in the conversation, maybe a tail end of maybe 10 or 11, they
- 2:56:03were a lot of great conversation.
- 2:56:05There were a lot of great teams man I don't know.
- 2:56:09I mean, you can I guess if you want to argue it, I listen, I'm
- 2:56:13not taking shots at Speedy. I mean, if if that's what he
- 2:56:17thinks that's what he thinks I disagree, if people would ask
- 2:56:21me. But that's I think that there
- 2:56:23were a couple at Walsh had better teams shoelace. 72 team
- 2:56:26was better. So I I just think even in that
- 2:56:29era those errors, I think there were better teams.
- 2:56:32Obviously the Steelers dominated, you know. throughout
- 2:56:36the decade, Terry Bradshaw is one of the most overrated
- 2:56:39quarterbacks of all Well, I mean, I would say they try, they
- 2:56:42kind of opened up the offense in a way that other teams weren't
- 2:56:46doing back in That 70s era and at the same time had a better
- 2:56:50defense than everybody. So when they got a lead on you
- 2:56:52it was very difficult and they were airing it out to get a lead
- 2:56:56on you so it was a pretty good strategy for back in those days
- 2:56:58but that's when you when you had the past pocket, there's two
- 2:57:01like it different different, I mean it was very different but
- 2:57:04like for as far as those days, that's what I love.
- 2:57:07I love. I love Speedy's on the West
- 2:57:09Coast offense. And and and what he presented is
- 2:57:12just like He had to go that way. He had wondering if I was gonna
- 2:57:17say Andy Reid to be honest with, you know, he's climbing that
- 2:57:20he's climbing, he's got to win a not yet, not yet.
- 2:57:23He's got to win another title. If he wins another, he's gotta
- 2:57:25win one at the Rocks on his side, no more one more then you
- 2:57:28got to convince you put them up there one more that's four
- 2:57:30championships in the time. He's in there if he wins one
- 2:57:33more for sure. If if he wins one more as quick
- 2:57:36as he has, I would put him there.
- 2:57:38And in the top three hundred percent Adam Chef.
- 2:57:40The reports at the NFL owners, have voted to keep the tush push
- 2:57:44as a legal NFL play after not getting 75% of the vote to ban
- 2:57:50it 24/32 teams wouldn't, I mean, would have needed to vote for
- 2:57:56Banning the play but they only got 22 votes.
- 2:58:00Both Jason Kelce and Eagles owner Jeffrey Laurie gave about
- 2:58:05an hour long speech, or persuading teams.
- 2:58:08Why the play? She stay legal in football, a
- 2:58:13lot of teams. Referenced safety concerns as
- 2:58:16the reason they wanted them to ban it but both Lori and Kelsey
- 2:58:20explained. Why there are many other plays
- 2:58:23that are just as dangerous that then that is still the Packers.
- 2:58:29And Matt LaFleur were the ones that started the petition to ban
- 2:58:34the play and the coaches of other teams, like the Falcons,
- 2:58:37Rams and lions. Also spoke against through as
- 2:58:41I'm sorry spoke against it throughout the office season,
- 2:58:44the Eagles social media team trolled, the Packers with a
- 2:58:47picture of them running the tush push against the Packers with
- 2:58:52the captain, with the captain push on the Eagles.
- 2:58:55Success rate of the Trish Bush was 82.4% last season down from
- 2:59:002023 season. When they succeeded 88.1 percent
- 2:59:05and 2022 92.3. The reason why there's a
- 2:59:08difference is Jason Kelce. Jason Kelce really
- 2:59:12revolutionized. That quarterback sneak tush push
- 2:59:16and the only thing that's different about the touch
- 2:59:18bushes. They have two players standing
- 2:59:20behind the quarterback and pushing him.
- 2:59:22That's that's all it is. But where did that come from?
- 2:59:25Know it to me, it was really the eagles, they really redefined
- 2:59:30the quarterback sneak. That's what they did.
- 2:59:32I mean, if you look at what Josh Allen does, in the NFL we've
- 2:59:37seen, he goes to the guard on Josh Allen on the a gap or the
- 2:59:42sea Gap and goes there. Josh Allen sleeping, different
- 2:59:46Josh, Allen is six foot five, six foot six and he's 60 pounds,
- 2:59:51gigantic enormous human being, okay?
- 2:59:54You look at Jalen hurts, Jalen hurts soaking wet is probably
- 2:59:58200 and 10 pounds soaking wet. I mean, obviously he has one of
- 3:00:02his morning. I bet he's more than that.
- 3:00:04He's got strong legs. He obviously, squats, 600 and 50
- 3:00:08pounds. He's one has one of the
- 3:00:10strongest lakes in the NFL and that's why the tush push is
- 3:00:13success. Fall, even though he's not as
- 3:00:15big as Josh Allen his strength, his leg strength and his ability
- 3:00:19to push forward is what makes him very, very unique.
- 3:00:22But you have either a tight end and a fullback pushing you from
- 3:00:26behind and practically lifting you up.
- 3:00:28I mean, that's why the success rate is there.
- 3:00:31Now again, going back to this year from the last two years.
- 3:00:34Is Jason Kelce. Jason Kelce is a unique
- 3:00:37individual. This is a all-time great Center.
- 3:00:40I think people forget how great Jason Kelce is because, Jason
- 3:00:44Kelce played on arguably, the best offensive line in football,
- 3:00:46for how many years, I mean, for the last eight years, I mean,
- 3:00:50you have Peter's, you have Lane Johnson.
- 3:00:54I mean, these guys are going to be Hall of Famers, first, ballot
- 3:00:58Hall of Famers. How many offensive tackles or
- 3:01:01offensive? Lineman her first ballot Hall of
- 3:01:02Famers. Not many of them.
- 3:01:03They already have two guys. And now three, I mean, Jason
- 3:01:07Kelce is the first ballot Hall of Famer.
- 3:01:09These guys are the best at their positions for almost 10 years.
- 3:01:13So, Again you go back and of course Jeffrey Lurie is not
- 3:01:17going to say that it's illegal and he's gonna say that, it
- 3:01:19should be fair. And and I think the NFL likes
- 3:01:23the fact that this is a challenge, like the fact that,
- 3:01:25you know, the Eagles are gonna go for it like this, stop it.
- 3:01:28Find a way to stop it. There's got Bill.
- 3:01:31Belichick is the king of finding ways to to work a certain play
- 3:01:36and try to ReDiscover redefine the way to defend it.
- 3:01:39Bill Belichick is the king of doing that.
- 3:01:41There's got to be somebody out there.
- 3:01:43That's going to figure it out when they do it's not gonna
- 3:01:46work. And and then the NFL is going to
- 3:01:48it, the Eagles are going to decide.
- 3:01:50Hey, you know what, I'm not doing it anymore, it's not going
- 3:01:52to succeed because once a coach figures it out the whole NFL,
- 3:01:55the whole league is gonna figure out how to stop it.
- 3:01:58Nobody's figured it out yet because it's very hard to stop
- 3:02:01somebody. That is a strongest tail and
- 3:02:04hurts. I'm sorry guys, when you know a
- 3:02:07guy can squat 650 pounds, just think about this.
- 3:02:11He squats as much as saquon Barkley.
- 3:02:14Okay? Think about it.
- 3:02:15Saquon Barkley's legs are twice the size of Jalen hurts and this
- 3:02:19guy's a quarterback and he's not as big as I said, it's Josh
- 3:02:24Allen or even Patrick Mahomes and this guy squatting 650
- 3:02:28pounds and he maxed out at one time, I think I've read almost
- 3:02:32close to 800. This is a quarterback.
- 3:02:34So I just think it's it's very hard to stop a guy.
- 3:02:38That's a strong in his fast, and it has the ability and the
- 3:02:41athletic ability that he has. And and again, the Eagles are
- 3:02:45not going to stop and the leak is not going to stop anything,
- 3:02:47because the league knows that this is been going on for
- 3:02:51forever quarterback, sneaks been around forever.
- 3:02:53Stop it, find a way to stop it. Yeah, they try to get.
- 3:02:58Good. I was gonna say I think they
- 3:03:00tried to I think they tried to even 2023.
- 3:03:03I think it was the Bengals owner Mike Brown.
- 3:03:05I think that wanted to Banana even that too and that's when
- 3:03:08all the discussion started really across the league and
- 3:03:11yeah, there's a way to do it that I was funny.
- 3:03:13The child to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers social media team.
- 3:03:16They actually posted mechanics on how to stop the tush push
- 3:03:19because they've been the best thing against it.
- 3:03:20Obviously, they did in the playoff game, was the emphasis
- 3:03:22one and I think they've stopped at the motion among the team so
- 3:03:25far. But there's a adjustments that
- 3:03:27can be made with it too. And I think some of these
- 3:03:28coaches have started to be more creative, you're defensive,
- 3:03:30guys, Speedy, if you are a defensive coordinator in the
- 3:03:33league right now, this is a good question.
- 3:03:34If you're at you you got to talk to fish on this too.
- 3:03:38I will. I will.
- 3:03:38I I got a question here. If you were a defensive
- 3:03:42coordinator right now in the NFL, how would you defend it?
- 3:03:46So you generally do what the other teams are saying to do if
- 3:03:50you were a defensive coordinator and you're looking at, you know,
- 3:03:53from Texas to O's, how would you stop it?
- 3:03:56So I would. But what what?
- 3:03:57Hold on, what personnel are you working with?
- 3:03:59That's what I'm gonna explain. So I think you have to probably
- 3:04:02like a traditional goal line defense is three defensive
- 3:04:04tackle so I think you would have to add more if you're facing the
- 3:04:07Eagles. I think you probably would want
- 3:04:08four for them on the field and then you'd want two guys that
- 3:04:12are going to jump the ball, like you would see on a field goal.
- 3:04:15Kick guys, I could Speed Line back or speed Edge rusher that
- 3:04:18has the vertical to be able to jump it, and try to do it from
- 3:04:21both sides, you have to make them adjusts in some way.
- 3:04:23When you saw the Eagles do this, you're a little bit with saquon
- 3:04:26because sake Juan is that good. They didn't really I mean, miles
- 3:04:29Sanders are the one good year, but he kind of fell off after
- 3:04:31that. So they didn't really have the
- 3:04:32other like second option. To make that kind of thing work.
- 3:04:36So that's the way I would do it if I were and again, you do it
- 3:04:39in different formations too. The defensive tackles you could
- 3:04:41do sometimes, like a triangle. You could do it, maybe just four
- 3:04:43on the line. You could make it all different
- 3:04:45looks because I don't think there's it's gonna be a play
- 3:04:47that's gonna succeed a lot anyway, but that's the way I
- 3:04:50would do it. Now, going back to the actual,
- 3:04:51the actual touch push thing. I think teams are starting to be
- 3:04:55more creative with it, where they're not even just doing
- 3:04:56their quarterback either. I think the Niners have done it
- 3:04:58a few times with George. Kittle the Cardinals did a few
- 3:05:01times to train McBride lining him up in the backfield and you
- 3:05:03doing this because they don't want to see it.
- 3:05:05Undersized Kyle Murray to do it. So I think that's why the reason
- 3:05:08why it makes no sense, all these teams want to ban it all of a
- 3:05:11sudden. So look, you're the mistake that
- 3:05:15everyone's making that Jason, Kelce pointed out, which is why.
- 3:05:19I think this didn't get banned is that it's actually the
- 3:05:22centers play. It's not the quarterbacks play,
- 3:05:25it's not the guards play. It's not the Running Backs play.
- 3:05:28It's not the tight end that you put in a quarterbacks Play.
- 3:05:31It's the center. The center is the one that makes
- 3:05:35this play work because the center is going to do a
- 3:05:37technique, he doesn't do on any other play.
- 3:05:39What he's going to do is he's going to dive underneath
- 3:05:43intentionally, go low and try to get under the zero technique
- 3:05:47defense, with Novus tackle under his pads and then just extend
- 3:05:51his body into him. Therefore, creating space for
- 3:05:56the quarterback to then move and then someone to push him in the
- 3:05:58back through the hole to get the one yard every single time
- 3:06:02because you're just extending your body creating that.
- 3:06:04One yard of space, Jason Kelce, super athletic center able to
- 3:06:09get low. John Michael Schmitz, not a
- 3:06:11super athletic center for the Giants tries to do.
- 3:06:13It gets heard Mrs. Half the season.
- 3:06:15Yeah. The lot of teams don't realize
- 3:06:18that that's really the reason they're doing it.
- 3:06:20I'm guaranteed, they've been what's his name?
- 3:06:23The, the Nebraska guy came Jurgens Jurgens Jurgens.
- 3:06:27He got hurt a little bit, but that's, but that's my point too.
- 3:06:31Of why I said, I wanted you to come in from a coach's
- 3:06:34perspective because now you're seeing cam go in, and why did
- 3:06:39they sign cam to a long-term extension?
- 3:06:42Because he learned from the best of what they did.
- 3:06:46And why did Jason Kelce show up? To the owners meeting talking
- 3:06:51about how important this is in the game.
- 3:06:54Like you got to understand like this is a part of the game, like
- 3:06:56we're not cheating, we're not doing anything.
- 3:06:59It's like it's something that we take pride in and when you take
- 3:07:03pride in something that you did it is literally Something that
- 3:07:09he loves. and that he sacrificed everything on his body and one,
- 3:07:16A Lombardi Trophy. And now he teaches a kid.
- 3:07:20That's behind him. Mind you I'm not even dropping
- 3:07:24in Nebraska reference here. But he gets teach a kid.
- 3:07:27That was great in college too, but now gets to do it and he
- 3:07:30gets to see the same thing. And watch a man.
- 3:07:34That is the first ballot Hall of Famer doing exactly what he's
- 3:07:37done. And this man stands up for the
- 3:07:40play that Mind you do you? We've all seen the quarterback
- 3:07:45sneak, right? But Jason Kelce.
- 3:07:49Kind of did the tush push? But he showed up.
- 3:07:54In. Let them know, like this is
- 3:07:57something that is important, if you're not good enough to do it.
- 3:08:01Sorry. You need the body type in the
- 3:08:05prototypes to make it work too. So 100%.
- 3:08:08I also hurts is perfect for it, right.
- 3:08:10Arrow. You were saying I would think I
- 3:08:12would think he would be the only one that's perfect for it.
- 3:08:14Because of his strength, his ability, his leg strength and
- 3:08:18his ability, but if he. But if he doesn't have a center,
- 3:08:20is he gonna? I think I think.
- 3:08:23I think he could still do it. I think he's just so strong and
- 3:08:27he he has the ability to find the hole.
- 3:08:29I don't think what he's he's tried to go off all the gaps.
- 3:08:33He's never done the tush but she's trying to go all the gaps
- 3:08:35and he got stopped all played. Yes.
- 3:08:37So I I agree actually. If you don't have a center that
- 3:08:41knows how to do it, you can't run that play cuz it's not gonna
- 3:08:43work. You need somebody that knows how
- 3:08:45to do that specific technique. It's Unique.
- 3:08:47It's not a normal technique in football, so it's a specific
- 3:08:52type of athleticism that's required for that.
- 3:08:55That's why you see like a train, make bride down there.
- 3:08:57You need to have really good quads and glutes and hamstrings.
- 3:09:01You need to be really strong in the upper.
- 3:09:04If you can do that and get low with your squats, you can't be
- 3:09:07one of these guys that do quarter squats and don't get get
- 3:09:10down. You need to be the guy that has
- 3:09:12almost hits the floor. Those are the guys that you need
- 3:09:15in there. And those are the guys, you need
- 3:09:17pushing to stay that low and have that power hurts and
- 3:09:20Barkley, the bet, probably two of the strongest squatters.
- 3:09:23There are so it's not surprising that those guys, I bet McBride's
- 3:09:27a great squatter too. I guarantee just that's why just
- 3:09:30so you guys know something Jalen hurts as far as from his waist
- 3:09:33down is by far, the strongest quarterback in the NFL.
- 3:09:37It's not even close. It's not even close at the same
- 3:09:39time for me. It does not have the front
- 3:09:41inside. Do you think the Eagles would
- 3:09:43have signed cam for a four-year extension?
- 3:09:45If he wasn't that dude, to get that like because he knows yes
- 3:09:51and no. Because you got to realize it's
- 3:09:53even though it's not their whole life.
- 3:09:55Even though it's big part of their offense, it's not the
- 3:09:57whole offense, they still have to be able to do know but what
- 3:09:59you get to the goal line, Speedy, when he gets a goal line
- 3:10:03and you have a I that has literally learned from the best
- 3:10:06that's ever done it. You wouldn't sign him to a
- 3:10:09four-year deal. Oh that's understandable but at
- 3:10:11the same time would would the Eagles have that same level of
- 3:10:13success of Kyler Murray or Bryce young, like a smaller
- 3:10:15quarterback was recording a quarterback.
- 3:10:16They needed an athletic guy that can do what obviously Jason
- 3:10:19Kelce can do and they have one and that's why it's working.
- 3:10:22But I still think it doesn't matter who the I disagree with
- 3:10:26fish. I as long as Jalen hurts his
- 3:10:28100% healthy, you're probably no matter what you're gonna get at
- 3:10:33least 75% of the time. If you're getting the, the tush
- 3:10:36just on a QB snake, just even if you have a, some ID decent,
- 3:10:42Center and he's trying to do the tush and Dickerson.
- 3:10:45Could I honestly think that because Jalen hurts is so Shifty
- 3:10:49and so strong, they're going to probably get it.
- 3:10:52I would say, 75% of the time, no matter what, that's just my
- 3:10:55opinion of the way to stop it. It's pretty simple.
- 3:10:57I mean, if you have three really did with Josh Allen, we saw him
- 3:11:02Josh Allen's not great. I don't think Josh Allen's great
- 3:11:05because I don't think he gets low enough know.
- 3:11:07He's big. He's tried he tries to use his
- 3:11:10body. He's not as much of a knee
- 3:11:13Bender so like like one of the first things you get like as I
- 3:11:17get college coaches coming to ask about my offense High School
- 3:11:21offensive lineman. The first question they ask.
- 3:11:22Is he a knee Bender? Because it's about how low you
- 3:11:26media is leverage, right? It's a real thing.
- 3:11:29Hold on fish can you explain what that means?
- 3:11:32Yeah so like you need to be able to get 90 degrees and you need
- 3:11:35to be like as an offensive lineman you don't stand up until
- 3:11:38the play is over. So you need to be able to run it
- 3:11:40full speed while in sort of a half Crouch.
- 3:11:42So you need to be able to stay low and move quick at the same
- 3:11:46time and have power at the same time, it's all that.
- 3:11:49So it's not an easy thing to do. If you're a skill guy, trying to
- 3:11:53do a line technique like this play basically is oh you know,
- 3:11:58you need to be able to stay low, be a knee bender and having
- 3:12:01credible power going forwards. There's certain exercises that
- 3:12:04show that power cleaning being one of them squats being another
- 3:12:08and it's not surprising Why the Eagles just successful.
- 3:12:11If the Jets Want to use a guy like maybe Braylon Allen pushing
- 3:12:16behind and now you have it, Justin Fields, who's A Little
- 3:12:19Bit Stronger. I need to put on a little bit.
- 3:12:20He's not as strong as hurts but I believe if you guys you guys
- 3:12:25might have a chance to do it and teams that have more athletic
- 3:12:28playing lower to the ground. Quarterbacks are the guys well,
- 3:12:32and I want to get off the topic because we have a lot more to
- 3:12:35get into. I will say this, the Jets are
- 3:12:37going to use a lot of quarterbacks, that's why they
- 3:12:39drafted momba mamboo. The reason why they drafted
- 3:12:42mamboo is because mamboo, is really, really strong.
- 3:12:45And and they have Olu on the other side, they're two really
- 3:12:48strong anchors on your offensive line.
- 3:12:51And mamboo is just a beast. He's gonna open up Lanes, he's
- 3:12:54fast. He ran a four, eight at the
- 3:12:57combine, he's gonna split opening opportunities for guys,
- 3:13:00that doesn't do anything with you at the goal line.
- 3:13:02It might, I mean, you are offense, alignment, don't do
- 3:13:06anything. First of all, hold on.
- 3:13:07What second know I'm saying, maybe inside.
- 3:13:09I know he doesn't have to, he doesn't have to be if you're
- 3:13:12opening up. One side of the line, all he's
- 3:13:15got to do is run right through it.
- 3:13:16So you would think that right? And the Eagles have saquon
- 3:13:19Barkley and if anyone is a sake, Juan Barkley fantasy owner last
- 3:13:23year, you know that you didn't get half as many touchdowns as
- 3:13:26you should have got because even though saquon Barkley, could
- 3:13:28have ran right behind Lane Thomas every time and got in.
- 3:13:31They did the push because it's an automatic play for them
- 3:13:34because of how strong heard and I think.
- 3:13:36So. I, I think Justin, that's the
- 3:13:38thing I think Justin Fields is gonna score a lot of touchdowns
- 3:13:40for the Jets this year, because that's what they're going to do.
- 3:13:42And and, and, and, and Justin Fields, it has an offense, a
- 3:13:46young offensive line that can push people back.
- 3:13:49And and this is a good. This is a very athletic
- 3:13:52offensive line. I think this is going to be one
- 3:13:54of the better and I'm not saying this is Jeff, Jeff fan.
- 3:13:56This is going to be one of the more talented young offensive
- 3:13:58Line's right now in the NFL. So quickly, before we get off
- 3:14:01it, I do have a sort of a solution on how to stop it and
- 3:14:05we saw one team try to do it. We saw Chris Jones try to go
- 3:14:08horizontal and attack the ball. And the reason why he did that
- 3:14:11is because as a Idea. And I'm thinking what he's doing
- 3:14:14is, if you have horizontal pressure on the guy get away,
- 3:14:19get away from the ball, it knocks him off his axis and now
- 3:14:22the nose can just go forwards and push them back and I think
- 3:14:26that'll work, but I think Chris Jones hurt himself because he
- 3:14:29got hit before he was able to do it.
- 3:14:30So he tweaked his back doing that.
- 3:14:32I would have. I think the move is you put two
- 3:14:35guys, you have Chris Jones and you put a line backer behind
- 3:14:38him. So if he pushes him, the
- 3:14:39linebacker jumps, over Jones and then knife sin.
- 3:14:42And tries to just about to say they get two athletic
- 3:14:44linebackers that can. Yeah, I think that's the middle
- 3:14:47and push. It has the in we within
- 3:14:49conjunction with affecting the leverage of the center.
- 3:14:52That's the only way to make it. All right, ladies and Gentlemen,
- 3:14:55let's go to a sports minute, we still have the death of Jim
- 3:14:58Earth. Say we're going to get into it
- 3:15:00inside baseball and analytics. But first our Sports minute.
- 3:15:06This is the job and the mouth Sportsman.
- 3:15:09All right guys, another Sportsman for you is Aaron
- 3:15:12Fishman, two stories before we get into tonight's Chicago
- 3:15:16Blackhawks have found the new head coach in, Jeff Glassell was
- 3:15:20the assistant coach for John Cooper in the Tampa Bay.
- 3:15:22Lightning for the past three seasons.
- 3:15:24After a tumultuous, seven years is the head coach of the Detroit
- 3:15:28Red Wings. His time with the rebuilding Red
- 3:15:30Wings. Hopefully has Glassell prepared
- 3:15:32for what feels like the Perpetual free building Sky
- 3:15:35Town, who hasn't made the playoffs since before the
- 3:15:38pandemic. While Duke is losing
- 3:15:42presumptive. First overall pick Cooper Flagg
- 3:15:44congenital and common Melua. They may be even better next
- 3:15:49season their quest for the national title.

- 3:18:48Jim, irsay passed away yesterday at the age of 65.
- 3:18:52There was no cause of death revealed but the Colts knew
- 3:18:56about Ursa. Having many different health
- 3:18:59issues over the last two seasons and two years or say was a big
- 3:19:03focal point of the NFL's mental health movement during the covid
- 3:19:07pandemic in 2020 or say also has been very involved with both
- 3:19:13youth football programs in scouting programs for the NFL
- 3:19:16including having a stadium host the NFL combine every year or
- 3:19:20say inherited ownership in 1997, shortly after his father passed
- 3:19:24away and moved the team from Baltimore to Indianapolis since
- 3:19:28Earth Day became the Owner of the Colts in 1997, the Colts
- 3:19:32have the six best winning percentage in NFL history.
- 3:19:36Well in the NFL and won Super Bowl in 2007, I first of all,
- 3:19:42Jimmer say is known for what his father has done.
- 3:19:45I don't know if anybody knows about the Baltimore Colts,
- 3:19:49that's what they were. They all?
- 3:19:52And I don't know. And it's a crazy story because
- 3:19:55the Baltimore Colts were moved overnight.
- 3:19:59Nobody knew that they were moving, he sold the team to
- 3:20:03Indianapolis and the Browns the Cleveland Browns, which one of
- 3:20:07the most you know, prestigious organizations and NFL history at
- 3:20:12the time and the fans were crazy over there.
- 3:20:15They lost their franchise in 24 hours without even knowing was
- 3:20:20moved by a bunch of trucks all the way to Indianapolis and then
- 3:20:24obviously the the Cleveland Browns came back a couple years
- 3:20:28later and they've been on absolute joke ever since they've
- 3:20:32come back to the NFL. So obviously you see the
- 3:20:35difference of the NFL and and where the NFL is, which some of
- 3:20:38these organizations and how they redefine teams after they move.
- 3:20:41But Jimmer say has been one of the more nicer owners in NFL
- 3:20:47history has had back you know, the back end of his his
- 3:20:51livelihood and who he is is drugs.
- 3:20:54I mean he he's been caught with painkillers, he's been caught.
- 3:20:59Marijuana coming out over the years saying that he's been a
- 3:21:03hippie. I mean, the guy is a very
- 3:21:06well-known commodity for the NFL and it stands up for a lot of
- 3:21:11the players of the NFL and, and stood out for a lot of different
- 3:21:14players over the years and even players that have been, you
- 3:21:17know, drug problems. So smoking problems in the NFL,
- 3:21:19he believed that the NFL should allow marijuana over the last
- 3:21:23couple of years and obviously it's the NFL has slowly brought
- 3:21:28it to the league. Obviously, keeping them away
- 3:21:30from painkillers because the NFL for years of letting the players
- 3:21:34popping pills and and doing things to their body that they
- 3:21:36shouldn't be doing now, marijuana has become legal and
- 3:21:39one of the main reasons why marijuana has become illegal is
- 3:21:42because he came or say, Jim Ursa has been a pure believer in
- 3:21:46marijuana and police marijuana. Plants are also, he believed
- 3:21:51that it was going to be future the future cure of cancer.
- 3:21:54So there's a lot of things about jimers say you like and there's
- 3:21:57a lot of things you don't like about him.
- 3:21:58He's Is very outspoken, he's thrown people under the bus, he
- 3:22:02doesn't like a certain amount of owners in the league.
- 3:22:05He's come out and attacked a lot of different owners in the
- 3:22:08league. And I think he stands for a lot
- 3:22:11for what the NFL has lost. I I mean, he speaks, he speaks
- 3:22:14up his, his own personality, lets his personality, be felt
- 3:22:18when he spoke to the Press every single season.
- 3:22:21And offseason, he always spoke to the Press, he never hid
- 3:22:25behind a door and he was always out there speaking, and and
- 3:22:29saying what he thought the NFL should be and what the NFL needs
- 3:22:34to read a fine over the years. And you also came out with the,
- 3:22:38the the CTE situation he's already come out and said it.
- 3:22:42Well, he said it for years about CT and how he needs to that the
- 3:22:46NFL needs to find a way to protect the players.
- 3:22:47He's also one of the owners that have come out and said that the
- 3:22:50NFL should support the retired players and bringing benefits to
- 3:22:55these players after they retire from the game.
- 3:22:58I think, Per se is going to be missed because of his outspoken
- 3:23:02personality. But also what he stood for, and
- 3:23:05he stood for the players, he didn't stand for the owners, he
- 3:23:09stood for the players. And that's something that could
- 3:23:11be commended. And a guy that is absolutely
- 3:23:15changed. The leak for the better.
- 3:23:17Yeah, absolutely. And even some of the players
- 3:23:19have tweeted about like mentioning the former and
- 3:23:22current players knew the impact that Ursa had with the players
- 3:23:25and like you said, influencing on the marijuana, influencing a
- 3:23:29lot of the off. The field stuff.
- 3:23:30Yes, he was outspoken. Yes, he did some crazy things
- 3:23:32off the field for sure. We talked about it a couple
- 3:23:34years ago, he wanted that he don't have to lean over the
- 3:23:37table. He wanted to he wanted to change
- 3:23:39the the rules of the referees. I think we discussed like two
- 3:23:41years ago and like I was one of the big world changes and since
- 3:23:44then there's been a lot of referee skepticism as well.
- 3:23:46But yeah like you said with the CTE with the marijuana too.
- 3:23:49We talked about a when Sean Smith was part of the show too
- 3:23:51like the impact on marijuana on the NFL now it's really really
- 3:23:54big. We're seeing all these retired
- 3:23:55players come out now and the CT situation.
- 3:23:57Well there's a lot of players are Retired early on that cold.
- 3:24:00Sean Warner was the first round, pick a linebacker Jack Newhart
- 3:24:03was a very good guard. I think he retired at 28 or
- 3:24:06something like that. Like that was a initially that
- 3:24:08first wave and a lot of that probably had to do with or say
- 3:24:10they probably went to him and said, do you really want to
- 3:24:13continue going with football? Obviously, it's tough on the
- 3:24:14team but I definitely got like you said his father very
- 3:24:17influential as well, and his father was an asshole.
- 3:24:20Everything. Well yeah, anybody that I don't
- 3:24:23know. Fan base.
- 3:24:23I wasn't alive for his father. Obviously, he stepped away from
- 3:24:27football before I even really was in to the football world.
- 3:24:31I mean, he was still involved but yeah, I never knew who he
- 3:24:34was. I know who Jim Ursa was Sir.
- 3:24:36What everybody has said about him?
- 3:24:38He was an asshole know. There's definitely a lot of
- 3:24:40people that were deterred by him at the same time at the
- 3:24:43Baltimore fans. Obviously John Elway refused to
- 3:24:45play there so there's obviously there's people that turned in
- 3:24:47the wrong way but definitely still making the Colts.
- 3:24:49The, the brand that they were probably since like I was saying
- 3:24:52that Don Shula era and then later on when Jim took over
- 3:24:55obviously the drifted in Manning and the ran with that, they want
- 3:24:57to Super Bowl and made them a very popular brand as a whole.
- 3:25:00And like I said with the scouting stuff, too, like, doing
- 3:25:02all the stuff with the scouting with the combined too, like
- 3:25:04that's a big big wave in today's game.
- 3:25:06So definitely a polarizing figure for generously rest in
- 3:25:08peace. Yeah, 100% to his family.
- 3:25:12Like 65 is way too young and you know, he did what he did but you
- 3:25:17know, he's I look at it, too, at the same way when you guys are
- 3:25:21talking about it and and the way he did things, He was kind of a
- 3:25:25George Steinbrenner, like of trying to like get in front of a
- 3:25:29lot of stuff. Where it really is like.
- 3:25:34You get those guys that are polarizing.
- 3:25:38Where I got to experience it with with a man like that as an
- 3:25:42owner. And you want to play for guys
- 3:25:45like that. And that no, you know, like kind
- 3:25:48of the way things are changing, right?
- 3:25:51and, mind you, my Bailey is like Sitting at my lap right now in
- 3:25:58the studio and I'm just like, what are we doing?
- 3:26:00But like, get away from me, but I think he's, he will go down as
- 3:26:08somebody. That had a part in football.
- 3:26:14That a lot of people have it because he was so organic about
- 3:26:18what he did. And I think, I think that's
- 3:26:20real. And hate to lose a man at 65.
- 3:26:26Influential, but he's 100% influential and he was and
- 3:26:31complete opposite of what his father was complete opposite.
- 3:26:35Yeah. And I mean if you look at it
- 3:26:37when when he got from the Baltimore Colts because he took
- 3:26:40him over in 72, And he he wasn't his son and he did things that
- 3:26:49were different. And that's why people sometimes
- 3:26:52don't like guys like that. And he just thinks he did things
- 3:26:57different, and that's okay. And I really, really think like
- 3:27:02he'll go down. probably not as one of the greatest owners but
- 3:27:08he's gonna go down as one of the most influential of How he's
- 3:27:13trying to change the culture of kind of what the game was.
- 3:27:18You know, I I think he was different and I think the
- 3:27:21players really respect and I I saw what Peyton Manning posted
- 3:27:24up on his social media after he found out that Jim Mercy passed
- 3:27:28away. And it shows you how important
- 3:27:31that how important Jim Mercy was to Peyton Manning's career and
- 3:27:36Peyton Manning was there for practically his whole career and
- 3:27:39and he really developed as a quarterback under a guy like Jay
- 3:27:43Marshall and some people like but Arrow what we've talked
- 3:27:46about two is like we've talked about owners and we've talked
- 3:27:49about other stuff on this show is how he allowed Payton to kind
- 3:27:54of, like, do things in kind of stayed out of it.
- 3:27:56But let him do what he was, but still read.
- 3:28:00I also and still did. I also think that the mental
- 3:28:05health movement that he created for the NFL has been absolutely
- 3:28:10defined over the last couple of years, And I think he's really
- 3:28:14been a face of what the NFL has not really pushed over the last
- 3:28:2020 years. There's a lot of mental health
- 3:28:23issues, because of, you know, brain trauma and all that other
- 3:28:26stuff he has been tea. CT, you know, he's been he's
- 3:28:30been a big supporter for it and he's invested millions and
- 3:28:33millions and millions of dollars towards it.
- 3:28:35So to the Earthsea family, may rest in peace, I mean, he's a,
- 3:28:39he was a good man as far as what I've read and I think he stood
- 3:28:43for a lot of the players and I think that's something that
- 3:28:45Peyton Manning said on his social media and a lot of
- 3:28:49different players have spoken, not only High, Praise Him saying
- 3:28:53that they lost the father so my heart goes out to the are safe
- 3:28:57family. oh, it's been a long one guys.
- 3:29:00It's been a long one and as we always do this every single
- 3:29:03week, we call this inside baseball.
- 3:29:05Now let's go deep inside. Am EXC.
- 3:29:10Excited inside baseball. All right, guys.
- 3:29:15Welcome to another edition of inside baseball.
- 3:29:20We're gonna be talking about some stories and some
- 3:29:23interesting things going on in baseball right now.
- 3:29:27The week of well, I guess, whatever the week is, it today's
- 3:29:31the 22nd. So, for our Thursday Edition.
- 3:29:34So we're going to start off with the guy, you see on the screens
- 3:29:38Kyle Tucker and the contract sweepstakes, that's going to
- 3:29:42happen. This offseason haven't been
- 3:29:45paying attention. Besides the fact that Aaron
- 3:29:47judge is just dominated all the headlines here in New York.
- 3:29:50Kyle Tucker is probably the second best outfielder in
- 3:29:53baseball right now and his current numbers.
- 3:29:56He's got a 1604 Ops plus he's hitting.
- 3:30:00He's got a 939 Ops meeting. He's got 12 homers, 14, stolen
- 3:30:06bases, batting 278 and is bad up is actually lower than his
- 3:30:11batting average. So he's got positive.
- 3:30:13Regression ahead of him. Speedy.
- 3:30:14So it was actually should be doing better than he is.
- 3:30:17He's what they're saying. 38 runs 35 RBIs on that Cubs team.
- 3:30:23Look. He's an average Defender, he
- 3:30:26plays mostly right field. A lot of Yankees fans want to
- 3:30:29fit them in for next year. Let's start off Arrow.
- 3:30:33You think this guy's gonna end up in Pinstripes.
- 3:30:35Oh, I think so at the Yankees, wanted him in the off-season but
- 3:30:38the Astros would not trade them to the Yankees.
- 3:30:41And if, if it was gonna happen, they wanted to top.
- 3:30:43End prospects in the Yankees were not willing to do that as
- 3:30:46they did that with soda and look what happened.
- 3:30:49So he banned and walks away goes to the mats and they lose
- 3:30:52Michael King. So I think Tucker is one of the
- 3:30:55best. I'll field just in League.
- 3:30:56I think the Yankees saw that they spotted him from a mile
- 3:30:59away. I think everybody in the league
- 3:31:01knows that he's the high profile player that's going to be
- 3:31:03available off season. Now that Vladimir Guerrero is
- 3:31:06now off the, you know, off the hinge.
- 3:31:09So I now he saw it, I will argue that arrow in the same aspect,
- 3:31:14so, I would. Trust me, I would love to have
- 3:31:18him with what he's doing. but at the same time, What, what do we
- 3:31:24do with judge at the time? Because judges way better and
- 3:31:27right field than his Center, So what do we do with him?
- 3:31:31At that point I would Here's what I would do with Kyle
- 3:31:34Tucker. I would move Kyle Tucker, either
- 3:31:36to Centerfield or left field. That's what I would do, keep
- 3:31:38judging right field, that's what I would do.
- 3:31:40No matter what you do, you can shake your head, all you want
- 3:31:42the Yankees, need his back. I think judges the one that
- 3:31:45moves he's a better Defender than Tucker and left field has
- 3:31:49so much more ground to cover in Yankee Stadium that you kind of
- 3:31:53don't want the worst offender and left.
- 3:31:54You know, Guardiola always played left field because he was
- 3:31:58so fast, he would cover all that ground and you need a guy with
- 3:32:00range like that. It's not that Tucker slow, he's
- 3:32:03stealing bases. But as you're getting into your
- 3:32:0530s, you probably want someone that's a little bit more.
- 3:32:08Spry out there and left the Yankee Stadium.
- 3:32:10Hold on one second. They have well, we're gonna have
- 3:32:14this conversation. Oh, it's got a left fielder,
- 3:32:16right? They had chocolate.
- 3:32:17We'll talk about that next cuz that's gonna be our next.
- 3:32:19All right, they had chocolate. And they've had drunk caller.
- 3:32:25Stand that left field for the longest time.
- 3:32:27I don't think it matters, who's the left field there looking for
- 3:32:30his bad. You keep Aaron judge.
- 3:32:33In the right field position. He's been very successful over
- 3:32:35there. He's one of the best in the
- 3:32:37league you put Bellinger for the Outfield too and then
- 3:32:41belligerent could go to first base.
- 3:32:42I think they moved from the first base.
- 3:32:44I think that's what they Goldman's contracts up.
- 3:32:46It's only one year and let's say we want to resign him. but at
- 3:32:50the same time, if he, if he balls out the same way, Do you
- 3:32:55not resign him? Yeah, get him cheap.
- 3:32:58So you put Bellinger at center field and then you put, you put
- 3:33:02Tucker at left field one way or another.
- 3:33:04The Yankees will make it work. I don't think it's gonna be a
- 3:33:07problem. They're going to make it work.
- 3:33:08They want is bad. That's what they want.
- 3:33:10They want, is better than the lights.
- 3:33:12Pretty pretty damn good bat to have right now Speedy, if the
- 3:33:15Yankees don't end up with him. Where do you think he likes?
- 3:33:18I think, I think the Cubs are gonna resign him.
- 3:33:20Actually, I've always I've always been out of the chance to
- 3:33:23know. I've always been under the
- 3:33:24impression of that. I think if he does, test the
- 3:33:26market, it will be the Yankees. I definitely, I don't think it's
- 3:33:29the mats. I think the Mets are going to
- 3:33:30stick, stick to their ways with what they have right now.
- 3:33:33They'll get some more free agents.
- 3:33:35I don't think they're gonna, I don't think they're gonna be
- 3:33:37cheap. I'm just saying, I think the
- 3:33:38Mets got soda. I think as no hookers.
- 3:33:41Going to play the market like that contract.
- 3:33:43Obviously, he's not gonna guess much but he's still going angle.
- 3:33:46He's gonna aim for that 500 million.
- 3:33:48I think the Mets are gonna probably stick with their young
- 3:33:50core. I think they have a system
- 3:33:51there, so I don't think it will be them.
- 3:33:53Even though I would like it, I don't think.
- 3:33:55It will be that I think the Cubs there.
- 3:33:56Usually a top 10 payroll team. They're pretty active spending
- 3:33:59off season like two or three years ago they they need more
- 3:34:02pitching when they do hitting but I do think they keep them.
- 3:34:04I think the fans do like him. I have this great fear that is
- 3:34:09going to end up playing on the Red Sox.
- 3:34:10I just had that's awesome. I can say that the CM because
- 3:34:14they can kind of use that position over there a little bit
- 3:34:17and yeah, reunite with Bradman. So that makes sense.
- 3:34:20I could say it going from one villain with the Houston
- 3:34:24cheaters to the Boston Red Sox. But I think I'll Tucker will get
- 3:34:30close to like a Brandon Nimmo type of deal now.
- 3:34:33Okay, a lot more than that. Brandon demos actually on a
- 3:34:36pretty good deal. Job, I heard it might be 600
- 3:34:39million. Get them.
- 3:34:41I I think it'll I think it'll be more in the 400 range probably
- 3:34:45with that. I read that today.
- 3:34:46It might start. I saw that but there I know, I
- 3:34:51know, but this is what's. So it's a ripple effect.
- 3:34:54I just, I was literally just with his brother last week.
- 3:35:00It's nice money. Well and I'm like, He hasn't.
- 3:35:07I think he's closer to 200 than 400, he'll get four away.
- 3:35:12I think he'll get 400 at least well, because he's gonna come
- 3:35:16out the right time. Because if we talk about carpal
- 3:35:19vono and all the, if you come out of the right time without
- 3:35:24guys, now, you get that perspective.
- 3:35:28I think honestly, he's a brand new type of guy.
- 3:35:34I'm a Mets fan job but he's a Munchies.
- 3:35:36A lot better than Brandon. Nimmo offensively Brandon
- 3:35:38nimmo's, very streaky offensively.
- 3:35:40Oh, have you seen Brandon Nemo's number?
- 3:35:43I know you're a Mets fan and I'm a Nemo fan and it took him a
- 3:35:46while to get going, he's playing better now but it really took
- 3:35:48him a while. Well, trust you.
- 3:35:50I did it. But understand what I'm saying
- 3:35:52is like He's not a 400 million dollar player, he's not.
- 3:35:58Well. We'll see what, what people are.
- 3:36:01He's 440, right? Yeah, he's on Pace for a 4400.
- 3:36:06If you do that in a contract year with the rat, close to 300,
- 3:36:11that's what I'm saying. Is when you get into contract
- 3:36:14Year all these guys, you look at so many guys that have done this
- 3:36:19in contract years. Oh yeah, you're not gonna get
- 3:36:22that year from them, most likely that's, that's why they're know,
- 3:36:25but we use is that's our contract here.
- 3:36:29So I'm gonna ball out That's why I always take those guys in
- 3:36:33fantasy. Like, I took a Tucker this year.
- 3:36:35Let's move on to the reason why the Yankees won't be trading for
- 3:36:39Tucker or signing Tucker. Because of the Martian arrow is
- 3:36:43heating up on that frozen planet.
- 3:36:45A planet over from us past that asteroid belt train.
- 3:36:48All the other things here in the moon and all that Dominguez had
- 3:36:53a walk-off home, run to give the Yankees another win.
- 3:36:56The Yankees are on fire right now.
- 3:36:58Dominguez is just under 800 Ops. So which is and is got a 120 Ops
- 3:37:05plus, which is means he's an above average player already as
- 3:37:09a hitter in Major League Baseball League.
- 3:37:12Average is one of two Yeah, so Errol.
- 3:37:15What's your thing? I think he's a name on two s's.
- 3:37:18I am Martian. I think he's a trade show.
- 3:37:21That's what I think he is. I think the Yankees are gonna
- 3:37:24use him as a trade trip. If they, if they need something
- 3:37:26that I think that the deadline or at in the offseason, if
- 3:37:30they're looking to add another bat or a picture, I think that's
- 3:37:35where the Yankees go because I do still think Kyle, Tucker is
- 3:37:38going to be a New York Yankees, so there's no room for Jason
- 3:37:41Dominguez. If he really heats up, I think
- 3:37:44the Yankees have a piece that they can move to add a big arm,
- 3:37:47or maybe two relief pitchers and an arm for a hit or like that.
- 3:37:51I don't know what Jason to being his.
- 3:37:53He's finally heating up. He's still young, he's like
- 3:37:56what? 21, 22 years old.
- 3:37:57He's a baby, but the Yankees obviously, are looking for this.
- 3:38:02What 21, 22, whatever. That doesn't matter how old he
- 3:38:06is. He hasn't done enough to for me
- 3:38:09to think that the Yankees, see him as a future guy in there in
- 3:38:13a lineup, I think Jason Deming is one of the most overrated,
- 3:38:17prospects, the Yankees have had a very long time.
- 3:38:19Maybe you all, like, Them? I don't know what he's gonna be
- 3:38:22at the end of the season, but if he has a good season like you're
- 3:38:25saying it as the Italians would say you played them and I think
- 3:38:29that's where the Yankees are gonna go Java.
- 3:38:32If you have a guy who's Bonaparte diesel, as I say and
- 3:38:35defensively, he's just not there.
- 3:38:38Does that come around on these young guys?
- 3:38:40Or is he going to be a DH I honestly, like it's weird for me
- 3:38:45to because I don't like giving guys names.
- 3:38:51For what they're supposed to be. but then when you hear and there
- 3:38:55and judge, say, if we're gonna get to where we're going to get
- 3:38:58to get He has to be a part of it.
- 3:39:02So, we're not in the clubhouse every day, we're not in there,
- 3:39:06and if Aaron judge thinks that I can't, I can't go against that.
- 3:39:12And he said that if we're going to get to where he's going to be
- 3:39:16a part of it. It's going to be things.
- 3:39:19He sees him, like, putting in the work, the right way, if
- 3:39:22that's what I think, obviously he sees it.
- 3:39:26It's obviously one of those things and and I'll say this,
- 3:39:30too, weirdly. It's kind of like a Kyle
- 3:39:33schwarber thing. because he didn't really have like, A
- 3:39:38position. Yeah, converted Dominguez is
- 3:39:41literally like He's not a great left fielder, right.
- 3:39:47And so I'm like, what do you do with him?
- 3:39:50As Errol said, do you. It's a trade bait or because
- 3:39:55then you have Spencer Jones You have George Lombard, you got all
- 3:40:00these other guys, write him and Spencer Jones are gonna go in a
- 3:40:04trade. I believe that I don't take it
- 3:40:06to get a pitcher. Yeah, I I think the Yankees have
- 3:40:10an opportunity. I think Kyle Tucker is 100% in
- 3:40:13the Yankees radar on the Yankees, radar in the Yankees
- 3:40:15radar, whatever you want to say. I think that's where the Yankees
- 3:40:19are going to go in the offseason but they're they're not gonna
- 3:40:22they're not gonna pay him $400. No, I don't think so.
- 3:40:24I don't think so either. I think he's gonna get closer to
- 3:40:27300 more than judge know, I think what it is.
- 3:40:30I think he's gonna Get closer to 300 million that's like between
- 3:40:33280 and 300. That's why I think he's gonna
- 3:40:35get. But I'm gonna say this right
- 3:40:38now, on the show, he's gonna get 2, 4 2, If we're gonna make our
- 3:40:44bets, I'm gonna say he's gonna get four 50.
- 3:40:47You must be out of your goddamn ten years.
- 3:40:51So, he's 40 years old, I say closer to three, not that it not
- 3:40:55because he's worth it Java fish. I'm Gonna Fly.
- 3:40:58There is a market on your neck job.
- 3:41:00I know that's pretty nice. Punching them into this is all
- 3:41:03about in the nose Soto deal inflating, the market value.
- 3:41:07And this deferred money, don't this allowing you to a deal and
- 3:41:12it's kind of like, funny money to the organization.
- 3:41:14So now everyone has to do that if they want to compete.
- 3:41:18This is what we talked about last summer.
- 3:41:19This was going to happen and it's already happening.
- 3:41:22That's what's going on. So everyone's deal is 100
- 3:41:25million dollars more than they're worth already today.
- 3:41:28That's what's happening because of that.
- 3:41:30Yeah, but we're making a lot of. So I that's why I say 300
- 3:41:33million because a lot of people think he's probably worth
- 3:41:35between 200 and 240. I think he's gonna get about
- 3:41:39300, that's what I think he's gonna get.
- 3:41:40If you hit 300 and go 440, In a contract year you're breaking
- 3:41:46400 million, we're talking about Dominguez and wrapping up on
- 3:41:49him, if the Yankees do trade Dominguez, what is the position?
- 3:41:54Do you think that they need to most look at in a trade?
- 3:41:58It's interesting. It's I think too early to tell
- 3:42:01right? There's I would say pitching is
- 3:42:03the best way I would go. Obviously there's a lot of
- 3:42:05concerns with the the way certain infielders have played
- 3:42:08this year so there's definitely maybe a market to look at that
- 3:42:11but I think pitching is the direction to go on Marlins
- 3:42:13Marlins definitely. Yeah that's definitely one.
- 3:42:15That's sure about volte everybody.
- 3:42:18Know Volpe has some good Advanced stats on his side
- 3:42:21though that I think still can give him the benefit of the
- 3:42:24time. Being shut the fuk up.
- 3:42:28Job. I'm willing to give a young
- 3:42:29short, stop the benefit of the Dallas dance.
- 3:42:31That's at the same time. Doesn't get me W's.
- 3:42:35It's true. Anthony is not the main reason
- 3:42:38that the Yankees are stinky struggled at certain points.
- 3:42:40He's having a young shortstop coming up, it was gonna be
- 3:42:43really really good that Dominican so George Lombardi.
- 3:42:45That's my question monster. Yeah, he's gonna be he's gonna
- 3:42:49be that right? Or he goes second base.
- 3:42:52Oh, right. Oh, Faulty volpi.
- 3:42:56I think, I think Volpe if he doesn't figure things out this
- 3:43:00this season, I think the Yankees think to move him in the
- 3:43:03off-season, I think that's where they got.
- 3:43:06I don't know who the guy is. Maybe Speedy.
- 3:43:07You could tell me, but if I'm moving a combination of volpi
- 3:43:11and Dominguez in a deal and I want to get maybe a short stop,
- 3:43:16that's going to transition a third as he gets older, and
- 3:43:18Lombard comes up. Who would be the guy that I
- 3:43:22would want? Yeah, it shortstop is tough,
- 3:43:26because a lot of the, a lot of them are really like, either
- 3:43:29they're young players on struggling teams, that aren't
- 3:43:31going to be traded. They're probably either be
- 3:43:33signed a lot of infielders. We've seen them deteriorate as
- 3:43:36they get older, too. So that's what makes it
- 3:43:38difficult with with the market right now.
- 3:43:40Obviously, the super lowest teams, the Rockies, the White
- 3:43:43Sox. They're not gonna have any good
- 3:43:44value for you. What do you get hurt too much?
- 3:43:48But the left handed Corey Seager.
- 3:43:51Should be transitioning. Shortstop the third base soon.
- 3:43:54It's interesting. 31 years old. And he is he with the Texas
- 3:43:59Rangers. I it is not Texas Ranger, he's
- 3:44:01not going anywhere, right? See the thing is, if you guys
- 3:44:04offseason, if you guys, if you guys think that Tucker is a
- 3:44:08strong play, you want to take on another 300 million dollar
- 3:44:10content just fit in players. I think Nolan give I think Nolan
- 3:44:15Arenado is a guy that they're gonna bring to the Team One Way
- 3:44:17or Another at the trade deadline.
- 3:44:18I think that's what the Yankees are gonna do.
- 3:44:20I think that was the plan. Anyways, Nolan Arenado will be a
- 3:44:24Yankee by the trade deadline and I think the Yankees are going to
- 3:44:27trade those two pieces for pitching.
- 3:44:29That's what the Yankees are gonna do, they have Gerald
- 3:44:31coming back. They've got one of the best
- 3:44:33pictures in baseball and freed. They got Rodeo pitching very,
- 3:44:37very well, but he's on and off every year, I think he had a
- 3:44:40starting pitcher in a relief, pitcher a top and relief pitcher
- 3:44:42because we all know Devin Williams is gonna be one more
- 3:44:45starter one more guy. He's another guy, I think that's
- 3:44:48what it is. They're gonna bring in a big, a
- 3:44:50big dog, with one of those guys or maybe even both of those
- 3:44:53guys, remember George Jones, and Pittsburgh.
- 3:44:57He's not doing very well over there.
- 3:44:58I'm telling you right now, they're gonna have to give up
- 3:45:02one of those guys. I don't know if it's Spencer, I
- 3:45:05don't know if it's George, whoever they, they're not to
- 3:45:08give up one if they want to do something.
- 3:45:10To get a third and Guy. They're going to have to give up
- 3:45:15one of those guys. I agree, I would say.
- 3:45:17Also maybe even even besides Pittsburgh.
- 3:45:19Also the Reds, if they continue being mediocre, maybe one of
- 3:45:22their young pitchers too, is a possibility.
- 3:45:23They could trade for. I don't think green, but maybe
- 3:45:26maybe one of the young guys, I think they'll stay contending
- 3:45:30but I don't, I will say, and you guys say this, they're gonna
- 3:45:35have to get somebody. That is bigly.
- 3:45:36I know exactly. I know exactly who they're gonna
- 3:45:39go after. And I'm telling you right now.
- 3:45:40It's Michael. Let's, let's hear it.
- 3:45:42It's Michael King. Michael King is the guy that the
- 3:45:45Yankees are gonna need for. They're not gonna be able to
- 3:45:47bring him back. They and we all know the Padres
- 3:45:51are all. All in to trading away, pieces.
- 3:45:54I'm telling you right now, Michael, I know you love Michael
- 3:45:57King, I'm not sending us, it doesn't matter the Yankees,
- 3:46:01that's a Yankee Prospect. The Yankees love him.
- 3:46:03And Brian Cashman was very upset when they had to trade him
- 3:46:06because he didn't want to trade him in that trade.
- 3:46:08I'm telling you, right? I know, you know but I'm telling
- 3:46:13you Michael, Kings the guy I'm telling you watch.
- 3:46:16All right gonna be my Michael. So here's a guy that's older
- 3:46:18than everyone on right now. Rich Hill.
- 3:46:22Jabba is making a return to Major League Baseball.
- 3:46:26Let's get on this five years old, listen to this, he went
- 3:46:30down, he got, he's for Kansas City.
- 3:46:32He was in the AC faced, the ACL Cubs minor league team retired,
- 3:46:37all 12, batters graduating out. 7 Congratulations Rich.
- 3:46:41Hill coming back. Good when when you know what
- 3:46:44you're doing, It's different when you're pitching against
- 3:46:47kids that have no idea and Rich. Is a literally, a dude that just
- 3:46:54knows what he's doing. He doesn't try to go out his,
- 3:46:59his realm of what he does, but he's gonna spin it, he's gonna
- 3:47:04do what he does. And why is he still in the game
- 3:47:08right now? Because he's still productive.
- 3:47:12And that's exactly what he's going to do.
- 3:47:13Rich Hill, like God bless him. He's still grinding.
- 3:47:17I'm not even 40 years old yet and he's still doing it.
- 3:47:21I'm playing catch with my son doing all those things.
- 3:47:25He's still going out and getting dudes out.
- 3:47:27Like, could I get dudes out right now, 100%?
- 3:47:31Do I want to do the grind know, but you've got to stop this
- 3:47:37crap. Nick, trying to shut up Arrow.
- 3:47:39Next, try to come back to Nick's throwing and doing all that
- 3:47:43other stuff. And I keep telling Nick you want
- 3:47:45to throw your arm out again. You're 34 years old.
- 3:47:48Stop this, who cares, who cares? He's still gonna give league
- 3:47:52minimum, I don't think he's coming.
- 3:47:55Good point. I don't think he's coming.
- 3:47:56I think I've Rich Hills coming for a Jamie Moyer's record.
- 3:47:59I think he was 409 when he was at the end of his career when he
- 3:48:02was with the Phillies all the time.
- 3:48:04I remember for a hit or was when he, when he was with the Mets
- 3:48:06was Julio Franco, when he was 48 breaking news, I got to go back
- 3:48:11off now. What's up?
- 3:48:17Because Dory. Smell my Yankees and Mets.
- 3:48:22Legend, Luis Severino. Apparently, the A's Clubhouse
- 3:48:28and what they're in, what Sacramento is that, right?
- 3:48:31The A's, yes. This year, it's so bad.
- 3:48:35That like the clubhouse is on the other end from the bullpen.
- 3:48:38They can never get anything they want to get home.
- 3:48:41They can't get there at all. The pictures are miserable,
- 3:48:44especially Luis Severino yum yums quote.
- 3:48:47I just need to figure out a way to pitch good at home.
- 3:48:50I feel like if I only pitch on the road, I'll be freaking Cy
- 3:48:54Young, but I need to get better at home.
- 3:48:57He's owing for with a 675 with 14, walks 29ks at home and away.
- 3:49:04Should I stay with the mats away?
- 3:49:06He's got two runs, two earned runs and 25.
- 3:49:09Innings, six walks, 16 KS no Homer's a 0.72 Road era.
- 3:49:15Java you ever have splits like that and don't know anyone that
- 3:49:19was just like that different home and away.
- 3:49:21Yeah, I mean there there are parts of it where it's like, you
- 3:49:26know, the parks that you pitch in that you pitch well.
- 3:49:30And there's some that you don't. you know, and that's that's just
- 3:49:34part of it, but when you actually call out like a team,
- 3:49:39or you call out like what it is, I mean, it's, it's real
- 3:49:44difficult to to kind of distinguish like are you pissed
- 3:49:48or Like, hey, I'm like I suck pitching Anaheim.
- 3:49:53I've I sucked. I was terrible.
- 3:49:55I didn't like pigeon their great.
- 3:49:58But I just wasn't good. So I don't know where he stands
- 3:50:04in that. If that like if it's a mind
- 3:50:06thing. or if it's just like, I just know, I don't pitch well
- 3:50:11there. I honestly don't know.
- 3:50:14We separate nose. Got to stop this crap.
- 3:50:17You stop. Bitching and moaning.
- 3:50:19You decided you wanted to go there and take the money.
- 3:50:21You wrote with it. Complain, complain, complain.
- 3:50:25Go out there and pitch and stop pitching, but he knew going into
- 3:50:29it. Earl like Hayden, they didn't
- 3:50:31have a home stadium. Like he knew what it was he
- 3:50:34needs to grow the hell. I don't think anyone really knew
- 3:50:36the effects of how drastic it would be like that much of the
- 3:50:39hitters park. I think everyone knew that no I
- 3:50:41I understand but fifth best hitter's park in baseball I
- 3:50:45would say like I think the big drop off from pitching Parts.
- 3:50:48Oh Coco but exactly what Arrow said it's like He took the money
- 3:50:53and that's that's where he went. Pulled it out of my ass comes
- 3:50:57from the coach guys definitely weird look from the rubber to
- 3:51:01home plate where the walkway is behind the dish, the Press
- 3:51:03boxes, all Center that can kind of give you an optical illusion
- 3:51:07of maybe the plate being in a different spot.
- 3:51:09That's 100% truth and I will tell you There are so many
- 3:51:16places where I felt like when I was on the mountain, I felt
- 3:51:20closer to the plate. Or I felt further from the
- 3:51:23plate. And so that that plays a part
- 3:51:27just because just visually like you guys have never stood 60
- 3:51:31feet 6 inches, right? But I was thinking about.
- 3:51:36Standing. You don't stand six.
- 3:51:39You don't even have six inches, Speedy, relaxed.
- 3:51:41I wonder if he has three inches. So for us though is like
- 3:51:49visually like what you guys don't understand.
- 3:51:53Like when we get on a mound, We know, like, we feel like we're
- 3:51:59throwing harder or it's like, damn, I feel like I'm throwing
- 3:52:02from The Outfield. And that's the way it is and
- 3:52:05exactly what you said. is like they have this and this and this
- 3:52:09and this and this It just feels different when you're actually
- 3:52:12throwing a baseball and we're still standing 60 feet, 6
- 3:52:16inches. but everything behind you makes you feel like you
- 3:52:20throwing Longer or shorter? Yeah, it's it's really crazy.
- 3:52:26They have the third highest home era in the majors.
- 3:52:29They're actually started pretty hot for this move on, but there
- 3:52:34we all know, they're not gonna finish over 500, and with having
- 3:52:37a home park like this Arrow, they got to be there.
- 3:52:39I think until 2028. Yeah, is that right?
- 3:52:42I believe, so, the stadiums, I don't know.
- 3:52:44And honestly, to be honest with you, with the Oakland Athletics,
- 3:52:48I don't care. I mean, the organizations at the
- 3:52:51Buckle there, they're just as bad as old.
- 3:52:54How do you think they're gonna do when they move to Las Vegas
- 3:52:57though? I mean they should suck like for
- 3:53:01the next three years. They're the top overall pick in
- 3:53:03the draft and then just load up. I think they're gonna have a lot
- 3:53:06of money because Vegas is going to draw a lot of people and it's
- 3:53:09gonna sell to yeah it's gonna sell a lot of fans because look
- 3:53:12at look at all the Vegas teams even the Raiders right now even
- 3:53:16though they they're at debacle of an organization, they're not
- 3:53:20gonna be the nights that win in the first years.
- 3:53:22It does a difference, I think between the front office
- 3:53:25structure and baseball is different from hockey because
- 3:53:28the NHL pretty much hands. These guys the the best players
- 3:53:33on each team. So when they do these entry
- 3:53:35drafts you can only hold on to like 5 or 6 players and then
- 3:53:39everybody what's the first year of the golden knights?
- 3:53:45Yeah. Did they had Mark Andrei?
- 3:53:48Yes. Yeah.
- 3:53:48And he's one point he would have retired probably, wasn't he the
- 3:53:55first? I mean, look at the Florida.
- 3:53:57Look at the Florida Panthers there.
- 3:53:59Are expansion here. Who did they draft?
- 3:54:01First, John vez Brooke and he took him in. 96, 97 to the
- 3:54:05Stanley Cup finals on his back when you yeah, on an expansion
- 3:54:09team. So, and they have three years
- 3:54:11they were in, they were in the NHL finals against Colorado.
- 3:54:13They got swept, but he's the one who they wrote him all the way
- 3:54:16to the finals. Who was their best player?
- 3:54:18Besides vampire Scott. Mellon, B.
- 3:54:21Okay, and vampires brick wrote a mole.
- 3:54:23The way to the finals. So I honest to God, honest to
- 3:54:26God. It's all about with the NHL.
- 3:54:28It's it's all about how they get positioned and who they get from
- 3:54:31the end. They were inside baseball.
- 3:54:33Just saying, go ahead. Let's go.
- 3:54:36All right, the sad part of inside, baseball, the injury
- 3:54:39report, Jared Jones, it's not working with the, with the
- 3:54:43elbow. I, it's probably not going to be
- 3:54:45Tommy. John's, probably gonna be the
- 3:54:46new internal brace surgery, everyone's doing, but he's done
- 3:54:50for this year. And probably most, the next
- 3:54:52year, they was supposed to be the, the dynamic duo him, and
- 3:54:56skeins. Errol.
- 3:54:59What do they get? We hear rumors about skins being
- 3:55:02on the Block, they're saying he's not.
- 3:55:04The timelines, not good with Jones going down for the for
- 3:55:08that. If I was a team right now, I
- 3:55:09would make a trade for Jared Jones and sit on them.
- 3:55:12That's what I said about the Yankees, I'd sit on them because
- 3:55:15two years, he's young two, three years from now, this the kids
- 3:55:18still a babies, 25 years old, and the guys got a tremendous
- 3:55:21amount of potential. I obviously, it's not gonna work
- 3:55:24in Pittsburgh, they like to trade away, pitching prospects.
- 3:55:27You might, if you're a team like the Yankees, or even the Mets,
- 3:55:30or even the Red Sox, I sit on him and, and trade for him and,
- 3:55:34and I'm waiting until he's, he's ready to come back, and then you
- 3:55:38have yourself a gem. That's what I think I would do.
- 3:55:41So there's been a we're gonna talk about a couple of other.
- 3:55:43We're going to talk about different National in a second
- 3:55:46but I wanted to talk about Dylan Crews going down with an oblique
- 3:55:49injury was just starting to heat up a little bit.
- 3:55:52Obviously high profile pic a long was skiing in that draft a
- 3:55:57year at was a year and a half, so same dropped.
- 3:55:59Same draft, they were good. They went one, two.
- 3:56:01Well, that they were going back and forth, who was going to be
- 3:56:04one or two. I actually, I had an argument.
- 3:56:06I wish Carter's getting his hair cut right now.
- 3:56:09I wish I had this argument with him because he was like, oh,
- 3:56:13cruises going to go one because he had like 4:35, like 26 and
- 3:56:18whatever in college and I'm like, Know, you're gonna take an
- 3:56:24arm first, you're going to take an arm.
- 3:56:26But cruises proved what he's done and I saw the other day,
- 3:56:31too. Like I love watching these young
- 3:56:34kids like I told you like, now, this is a great time.
- 3:56:37Like we're gonna do a CW, a special And all the other stuff
- 3:56:41these guys in the CWS, when they get there it's completely
- 3:56:45different like they get to a different Realm. and when you
- 3:56:49get guys like that, Like skins at LSU.
- 3:56:52He started their Force. Cruise LSU like you get those
- 3:56:58guys. and they're different, but when they come, and I've heard
- 3:57:05all the Paul skins, like, There's nobody in baseball.
- 3:57:11And I've heard from all of the broadcasters and everything
- 3:57:15trade, there's no team that has enough to trade for Paul schemes
- 3:57:20right now. It's going to be tough, there's
- 3:57:24not one team. So as far as Crews goes, I think
- 3:57:28that team is get, is just stockpiling Talent.
- 3:57:31We'll talk about Abrams in a second.
- 3:57:33Before we get there. It looks like the end is near
- 3:57:37for the great. Justin Verlander, he's got a
- 3:57:40peck injury going on, the eel numbers are just not Verlander.
- 3:57:44S433 era. One, four.
- 3:57:47Oh, four whip currently. But fish of what, are you one
- 3:57:52strikeouts in 52 Innings. It's not the same guy anymore.
- 3:57:55He's 40. What have we said?
- 3:57:58Oh, that's what I wanted to know.
- 3:57:59You don't, you don't beat time. You, you can't.
- 3:58:02Can you even the great Justin Verlander?
- 3:58:04And he's, he one of my dear friends and I love him.
- 3:58:08Kate and his kids. I love all of them. but I'm
- 3:58:12telling you, I love the man who he is because he's in.
- 3:58:19Predominant. Absolute competitor.
- 3:58:23And once to be the best, but I'm like, dog.
- 3:58:26You can't do it now. Like we're We're out of the game
- 3:58:30like we're out like, you can teach and do all these things.
- 3:58:35But you got to understand like the game has passed you, you're
- 3:58:3942 years old. And I love him to still being
- 3:58:44able to do it. And he added absolute
- 3:58:48unbelievable career. He's going to be a first ballot
- 3:58:50Hall of Famer. But at the end of the day, like
- 3:58:53you're done. And that's okay like that but it
- 3:58:58sucks when you're when you're done.
- 3:59:00Nobody knows that feeling as a professional athlete when you're
- 3:59:04done. and when you get that feeling, It's like, I never
- 3:59:09wanted to feel it on the field. Because I'm like, I'm not good
- 3:59:14enough. Still want to have that fastball
- 3:59:17at the end, I hear you Arrow. What do we make out of this?
- 3:59:21This wonderful career of Justin Verlander coming to an end.
- 3:59:25Like who cares? I hated him.
- 3:59:28I'm a Yankee fan. Couldn't stand Justin Verlander
- 3:59:31because he killed the Yankees no matter where he went.
- 3:59:33I couldn't everyone. I'm done with Dustin ferland.
- 3:59:36Thank God. I don't have to look at his his
- 3:59:38face anymore by the way he follows me on on Twitter.
- 3:59:41So that's interesting. Figure Speedy, I saved George
- 3:59:45Kirby's Return for you. This is a pitcher that pitched
- 3:59:49over 190 Innings two years in a row that into this season.
- 3:59:52Had some had some injuries, a little worries about the arm in
- 3:59:57the beginning of the spring. What is his return mean?
- 3:59:59For this Seattle pitching staff, that lost, Logan Gilbert.
- 4:00:03Yeah, that definitely much needed because a lot of these
- 4:00:05other guys have to go longer than you wanted to forger
- 4:00:08pictures to go into games. Obviously Brian Wilson had a
- 4:00:11fantastic year and they have all the really good talents with
- 4:00:14Bryce Miller. I think there's less pressure on
- 4:00:17them again, Kirby pitching that many innings, wonderful,
- 4:00:20somebody, let a smaller build on him.
- 4:00:22I think he's only like 190 pounds or something like that.
- 4:00:24He's a smaller pitcher. Probably gave out of Eventually
- 4:00:27had a setback. I think twice 20 pounds more
- 4:00:29than you. Yeah.
- 4:00:30And I think he's a very talented pitcher and I think he still
- 4:00:33will as he can continue to stay healthy.
- 4:00:35Will still aged well, he's still young, he's got good stuff.
- 4:00:38Um, I had good stuff when he was a young pitcher even when he was
- 4:00:41with the Tigers before he was traded over to Seattle Java, one
- 4:00:44of your teammates, we had on the show Brian Pena.
- 4:00:46Who's I want to hit it? Very good, very good
- 4:00:49personality. He was he was actually scouting
- 4:00:51with him because he's now he's now managing over there in
- 4:00:54Detroit with the single a team and so he knows that how good he
- 4:00:57is. Upside is definitely there and I
- 4:00:59think he's still a lot of room to grow and I think Seattle
- 4:01:01definitely needs in a tight race with the Astros right now in the
- 4:01:03AL West. They call me the Ladies Man and
- 4:01:05Mr. Steal Your Girl. Breakout pictures names that are
- 4:01:15gonna become household names in baseball, that you need to know.
- 4:01:19Where's mine already showing that?
- 4:01:21He needs to know their names this season, Pete, Crow
- 4:01:23Armstrong leading it off. Let's reverse the order, Speedy.
- 4:01:27Yeah, this guy was known for his glove.
- 4:01:31His Bat this year, I'll give you the stats.
- 4:01:34Right now he is hitting, where is it?
- 4:01:38He said in 279 with a 313 on base but 550 3, Slug and a 141
- 4:01:45Ops plus. He's got 12 homers and 14,
- 4:01:49stolen bases, and the field. If Mets former first-round pick
- 4:01:55feet from Armstrong and now he's hitting the bottom up hitting
- 4:01:58that full potential, obviously traded for the half a year of,
- 4:02:00really three months of Javier Baez and then he let him walk,
- 4:02:03which I guess turned out to be a good decision at the time
- 4:02:05because he struggled and destroyed, but now he's actually
- 4:02:07hitting well, this year. But Peter Armstrong, this is
- 4:02:08exactly what do we expected out of somebody like that?
- 4:02:11Like I said a great defender potential for that.
- 4:02:14Five tool player. If you can keep this hitting up
- 4:02:16so he's really been a nice spark along with like we're talking
- 4:02:19about before with Tucker really leading that offensive in the
- 4:02:21best offensive baseball so far this year, the cops.
- 4:02:24All right, let me move on to Errol Errol.
- 4:02:27You got five names up there, you pick one, you want to talk
- 4:02:31about? Hold on, I got something for
- 4:02:33you. Go ahead.
- 4:02:34Um, She is waiting for you gonna say and waiting for my guy,
- 4:02:40Riley Leonard. I know, I know we reached out to
- 4:02:43him and he's working right now, at rookie Camp.
- 4:02:46So, I'm trying, how hard do you have to try?
- 4:02:48How hard is it? Well as hard as speed?
- 4:02:51Yeah, as hard as Speedy has to, you know, find his little thing
- 4:02:56wherever it is and that bush I'm sorry, I don't get any ideas.
- 4:03:08I will have Riley Leonard on this show.
- 4:03:10I promise you Riley. Leonard be on this show.
- 4:03:13Bagel who including that Bagel Hole.
- 4:03:15All right arrow who you want to talk about?
- 4:03:18We got a couple of hitters a few pictures here.
- 4:03:20You want me to give you some of their stats guy hunter, Brown
- 4:03:24stats out of this world. I like the I like I'm I'm gonna
- 4:03:28intrude on this one like Pete grown strong.
- 4:03:33Like he's a dude. But he also his mom.
- 4:03:40Was the mom and little big league so baseball's been a part
- 4:03:44of his life for his long. As he's known like, if you ever
- 4:03:48seen a little big league, And all of our fans that watch it.
- 4:03:53That's the one. That's the mom.
- 4:03:55That's, that's a great movie for my childhood.
- 4:03:58That's fantastic and Java. You actually mentioned CJ Abrams
- 4:04:02to me early today. Yes.
- 4:04:04Tell me a little bit about what you like about this young guy
- 4:04:07CVA. You know, what, it's crazy to
- 4:04:10because I was looking at his stats, too, and he took over
- 4:04:13Bobby Witt and like, Shortstop in like the things that he does.
- 4:04:19and I it there's not a real like a big I guess, conglomerate of
- 4:04:27what he's done. But, man, I think he's gonna be
- 4:04:29really, really great if he continues to do.
- 4:04:32I think CJ Abrams is Is gonna be, I think he's gonna be Bobby
- 4:04:36with s. Yeah, he's not he's not gonna
- 4:04:39steal. His mind is, I don't think.
- 4:04:42I'm gonna think you got. I'm sorry.
- 4:04:45Sorry to cut know. Go ahead.
- 4:04:46I like Jesus. Lazaro.
- 4:04:47Okay, he's fine. Oh, one ninety five 67 KS.
- 4:04:52I I just like the name, Jesus. So, hey, maybe he announces it?
- 4:04:56Jesus. Yeah, I like Jesus.
- 4:04:58And maybe he is. Maybe he's Philadelphia's,
- 4:05:01Jesus. So they need millions of people,
- 4:05:03they feel the same way. Well, they, they have wheeler
- 4:05:06Zach wheelers. One of the best pictures in
- 4:05:08baseball. Now, they have a young kid like
- 4:05:10like Jesus, or Jesus, whatever you want to call his name and
- 4:05:15he's putting up the numbers and I think Philadelphia needs to
- 4:05:18that second tier picture. I know everybody's gonna look at
- 4:05:21their lineup it and they're going to say, wow, that line up
- 4:05:24is deadly. And by the way, Kyle schwarber
- 4:05:26is one of the hottest hitters in baseball right now.
- 4:05:28But I am going with, Jesus luzardo.
- 4:05:31They need that picture. They need that young
- 4:05:33left-handed, you know, type of pitcher, and they got one in,
- 4:05:36he's out of Who's also leading all pitchers in war and War 2
- 4:05:43right now? Hunter Brown may be more
- 4:05:45impressive to me. He's, he's a little bit behind
- 4:05:49in war speedy. This is a guy that we we had
- 4:05:54talked about as a possible. Riser at the beginning of the
- 4:05:58season, a guy to look at Jesus and Lazada right off the bat,
- 4:06:02he's injecting himself into the top, I like that ejected
- 4:06:06conversation. What good has no woody real
- 4:06:11breakout with Hunter Brown. Can he be this Ace?
- 4:06:14Yeah, it was weird because he got a lot of hype, but last year
- 4:06:18and he had, that really bad first two months of the season.
- 4:06:21And that really, I think, I think after that stretch, he's
- 4:06:25probably been a top 15, like overall pitcher in baseball and
- 4:06:29I think it is sustainable enough if you can say healthy.
- 4:06:32Now, again, another one that's kind of a smaller build.
- 4:06:34So I don't know how again with his velocity and stuff.
- 4:06:37How little age? But I think for what the Astros
- 4:06:39need, he's really doing a nice job this year.
- 4:06:41I get a sustainable. And just to wrap up the rest of
- 4:06:46these guys, Cal Riley, Java, what's his nickname?
- 4:06:49The big dumper, the big dumper. Well, I am a legend having a big
- 4:06:55season, I have no sexy homers 177 Ops plus as a catcher 370 on
- 4:07:02base, doing it all this guy's for real power and they gave him
- 4:07:07a contract. They knew what they were doing
- 4:07:08in his rewarding them and Mackenzie Gore has been a
- 4:07:12prospect that has been really kind of underrated for a while
- 4:07:17as far as up and down mostly down since he's been a league
- 4:07:20but the stuff is always been there.
- 4:07:21Well he's leading all baseball starting pitchers and strikeout
- 4:07:26rate. 13.42 per nine innings to he's like a top 15 picture right
- 4:07:32now. But that strike, this is a guy
- 4:07:36that you need to know the name of and guys beneficial that has
- 4:07:39been inside. Abrams and James Wood, and I'm
- 4:07:47done with the same deal. Sounds like a melon ready to
- 4:07:53explode. As a French Scoops, we probably
- 4:07:56say by the way, before we get into moves, you mean poops,
- 4:08:00poops Scoops. Dumpster, big dump early?
- 4:08:03Perfect for him dumpster fire because he definitely, nobody.
- 4:08:08That's the Colorado Rockies. He's done.
- 4:08:10All right tonight. So you know, dumpster fire.
- 4:08:14You take it. You take a lighter and you just
- 4:08:16let him just like lay one off and it probably shoots, right?
- 4:08:20Speedy, I don't know if this is, this is his and yours area.
- 4:08:24I farted Speedy all the time so I let it go.
- 4:08:27Anyways, ladies and gentlemen, our final segment of the night
- 4:08:30is Analytics. Lady everybody together, go
- 4:08:39ahead and say his penis vagina. I not do anything.
- 4:08:49What a great addition guys. Welcome back to analytics the
- 4:08:54cross section between on somebody.
- 4:08:57Experienced. Yes.
- 4:08:59Tonight, we will have yet another matchup between human
- 4:09:02rights and Speedy, peedy and what is the game?
- 4:09:07Well, I'll tell you. It is a mystery term that they
- 4:09:10need to solve each. One of them is going to give you
- 4:09:13Clues. Whoever solves it in the fewest
- 4:09:15amount of Clues is the winner except the terms are different.
- 4:09:19Speedy is going to have a mystery sports analytical term
- 4:09:23for Airlines. Errol rarely enjoys those terms.
- 4:09:27These are not the terms, he knows.
- 4:09:29Yeah, growing up or Jason. You know, sentence structure, I
- 4:09:34test man Errol is all about the traditionalist type of
- 4:09:39observations of sports. So he's not going to know this
- 4:09:42term. He's gonna try to solve it.
- 4:09:43On the other hand, Speedy does know all these terms.
- 4:09:47What he doesn't know, is what he always affectionately calls
- 4:09:50grows. Sexual crappy will be sexual
- 4:09:53innuendos. Speedy will have to solve, they
- 4:09:56will each get up to three, whoever solves it in the fewest
- 4:09:59amount of loses. The winner.
- 4:10:00If they do solve it, they have to use it correctly in a
- 4:10:04sentence men. Black men.
- 4:10:07Are you boys? Ready to play tonight?
- 4:10:10I don't necessary. Let's get it going to music on
- 4:10:16for you. Fortune Knights Sports,
- 4:10:19analytical terms. All right, so we're back to
- 4:10:22back. Weeks are going with football
- 4:10:23and this is a y p. A Aypa.
- 4:10:30Percentage. Nope.
- 4:10:38Denied wild guess round not working out for you but now a y
- 4:10:42p. A yep.
- 4:10:44And this is for what football football.
- 4:10:48Yards. All right, yards is correct.
- 4:10:50It's gonna be a tough one. He picked up, he picked a real
- 4:10:52ball buster for you this time. Maybe you did as well with your
- 4:10:56analytical term of the evening felching.
- 4:11:05Really. Really, while guessing it's not
- 4:11:12a fan, I'm guessing it's something that's very nasty.
- 4:11:16Sounds like belching, so I don't know if it's some kind of
- 4:11:19modification of that. let's say, it's A man. kissing a woman and
- 4:11:32then a burps in her mouth. I don't know.
- 4:11:39No. All right, so those are wild
- 4:11:44guesses. No clues involved.
- 4:11:46Now, we will go to the part where you have a chance.
- 4:11:50Speedy. Give Arrow his first clue for a
- 4:11:53y p. A all right, so it is a
- 4:11:55quarterback stat. And you got yards already,
- 4:11:58right? And if you try to throw the
- 4:12:02ball, what's another term for that that starts with a Another
- 4:12:07word for try. Go for it.
- 4:12:16That's correct. Yep.
- 4:12:21And then the other a is another term for skewed.
- 4:12:29Say that again. What is it?
- 4:12:30So the other a, the first a no no.
- 4:12:32What? What is the a y p?
- 4:12:33A y. So it's blank yards attempt, her
- 4:12:38attempts is at the end. That's the second day.
- 4:12:41So the first a is another term for skewed.
- 4:12:45I don't know. I don't all right.
- 4:12:48Getting close though. I'm back with another clue next
- 4:12:54time. But speed, you're gonna have to
- 4:12:56make some ground up right here. Arrow, give him his first clue.
- 4:13:01For felching. You can sip it somewhere.
- 4:13:07Oh God. I see Java.
- 4:13:11It's not a fan of this. You can see it's not a fan of
- 4:13:16this is either. I don't want to get the
- 4:13:19impression that I am. I don't know what type of liquid
- 4:13:21bodily liquid. This is getting on the other
- 4:13:23hand. Yeah.
- 4:13:24That's it's probably a big fan of this house.
- 4:13:29Okay. Somebody's body.
- 4:13:48It has to do with that. Yeah, I figured freaking gross.
- 4:13:55What else would be though? It's not. unless it's like you
- 4:14:00put a drink in your mouth and then and then, like start
- 4:14:04freaking. Doing intimate things on a bar.
- 4:14:10What? Maybe both of them, put a drink
- 4:14:15in their mouth make out at the same time with the drink in
- 4:14:18their mouth and then like climb on the bar and do into my crap.
- 4:14:22I don't know. We're gonna go back now.
- 4:14:33To the sports term, Speedy. Cool.
- 4:14:36All right, so the last the last a, or the first a I made bad is
- 4:14:41so a common terminology in In sports for any sport if you want
- 4:14:47to make a change. After after a intermission or a
- 4:14:51half, you would make an Adjustments.
- 4:14:55All right, so it's yeah. Just it is the term.
- 4:14:58Okay, so just I mean that's cool.
- 4:15:00That's closed. Yeah, no it's fine.
- 4:15:02So it's adjusted yards blank with a p, a taped Gave it to me.
- 4:15:10I never said yards Aid. You said yours in the beginning
- 4:15:12just to yards. And now a pee.
- 4:15:17Attempt. Errol.
- 4:15:21Come on. When you throw a pass, what do
- 4:15:27you do? It's 10, 10 for 12.
- 4:15:32What is that pass? You're what to attempt.
- 4:15:42Wait, are we trying to get him to that's speed.
- 4:15:44How many tries to I have? How many do I have left?
- 4:15:48You have, what is one left, right?
- 4:15:50Fish Speedy, you gave him the term.
- 4:15:55Like the p p is just like a slash well.
- 4:15:58Okay, in reality, Justin yards, attempt.
- 4:16:04Well what's the slash mean? What do you say when you have
- 4:16:06that like a wide divided by like, Is what it would look
- 4:16:12like, equal divided, bro, I don't know.
- 4:16:17I don't got it. All right, we'll have to wait
- 4:16:20for another clue. Where is it here?
- 4:16:25All right. Moving on back.
- 4:16:28All right to Speedy's clue. Speedy, think about like the
- 4:16:34thing you always talk about. All right, here we go.
- 4:16:36Buttholes You need a straw. You need a straw.
- 4:16:44All right. We'll go on the Java Theory.
- 4:16:46Well, you don't need a straw technically.
- 4:16:49Yeah, it's a piece of so you siphon.
- 4:16:54You technically a guy sips. Freaking grosser, other human
- 4:17:01waste, out of a woman's butthole.
- 4:17:06I mean maybe maybe you strong. Oh that's kind of right.
- 4:17:13That's good. It's kind of you're gonna need
- 4:17:16to be all right. So Speedy, you need to be more
- 4:17:19specific about the gross substance.
- 4:17:21You need to Define it more specifically.
- 4:17:24What? What is it that they're
- 4:17:27Siphoning out of that gross substance.
- 4:17:30I don't know this freaking, I've gotta remember, it's really
- 4:17:36structured. It's a sexual.
- 4:17:39So think about oh fish. I got it.
- 4:17:42Thank you. Yes.
- 4:17:47Um, speedy. You're so close.
- 4:17:51You're so close all together, sipping, it all together.
- 4:17:53A guy that is sipping jizz out of a woman's butthole.
- 4:18:01Yes. Speedy.
- 4:18:03Yeah. That is correct.
- 4:18:08But now as we all know, in this game, there is one last thing
- 4:18:11that has to be done. You have to use a correctly in a
- 4:18:14sentence. Speedy.
- 4:18:17Now, I don't know what the term was.
- 4:18:19Called. Can't say that's it.
- 4:18:23He's gotta remember. Oh wait, it was I don't I was
- 4:18:27rhymed with belching cancer. Niffin.
- 4:18:32Was felching and Everett of 13.1 of his hot ladys per year.
- 4:18:41Come on. That's not goody.
- 4:18:46And then he and then he followed up like and then he followed It
- 4:18:51Up by putting some butt plugs on them.
- 4:18:56Okay. Fair enough.
- 4:19:00Carol. We're gonna give you one last
- 4:19:02shot here. Oh wait, no, that was never
- 4:19:04heard of the second clue, right? That means.
- 4:19:09Despite that sentence not being great.
- 4:19:11Why Africa? He's here, I get a 30, you put
- 4:19:17it together. You got it on too close.
- 4:19:18Yeah. And he put it together and he
- 4:19:21didn't put the sentence together but he put it together.
- 4:19:25Previous. The only thing I actually
- 4:19:27incorporate the hot ladies for generally not used in the term
- 4:19:30of a woman's behind. I was another man, that's true
- 4:19:33too. And you guys gave him brother
- 4:19:36because technically you guys you gave him the answer, you guys
- 4:19:41all structured, you said what he always says?
- 4:19:45So, anyways, anyways, congratulations Thank God.
- 4:19:51Nobody go, sweetie sweetie. How many wins is this for you
- 4:19:54now? I think two.
- 4:19:55Not know. It's, I think it's three now.
- 4:19:57I think it's three as well. I think it's the race might be.
- 4:20:00I got eventually. Harmful.
- 4:20:01I got one technically with like what I did with the Halle Berry
- 4:20:05sentence, but I don't really count that one too.
- 4:20:07So it's, I guess it's probably four, but now, here's the thing,
- 4:20:10here's the thing, I'm supposed to, I'm supposed to give them
- 4:20:13the clues. Not you guys.
- 4:20:14Okay. So you guys gotta cut it out.
- 4:20:16What we're trying we gotta say I'm just say, I'm just saying
- 4:20:22I'm just saying I Gotta Give he did get pretty far on it.
- 4:20:25He did as soon as you said the the structure thing he knew
- 4:20:31exactly what it was. I mean well this was a perfect
- 4:20:34clue for him. It's the only you guys only got
- 4:20:39home. You guys only go to bed holes.
- 4:20:42It's a good point. First of all the craziest sexual
- 4:20:47terms are from the butt. It's a fact.
- 4:20:50You could look at you always you always talk about buttholes in
- 4:20:53every single sexual you know terminology comes from the butt.
- 4:20:58It's a fact to go look it up. I mean 90% of the crazy like it
- 4:21:03in the butt too. I know and I don't know why
- 4:21:06we're talking about this. I'm live live radio anyways.
- 4:21:10Hey, we're asking we're, we're all in relationships.
- 4:21:13Yeah. Well That's something that we
- 4:21:16shouldn't be talking about and Brittany just said disgusting.
- 4:21:19Anyways. Hey that's that's why fish
- 4:21:23doesn't have kids because he's smart.
- 4:21:25I doubt that's what fish is doing.
- 4:21:30Maybe that's how Jim maybe that's how Jim irsay died.
