11-04-26 Hour 2 - Inconsistent Avs need to figure it out/Trevon Brazile looking great already/Oh, By the Way... · Moser, Lombardi and Kane

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: This is Mosher Lombardi and Kane on demand. Listen live
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: every weekday morning from 7 to 10 on Altitude Sports
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Radio 92.5 and on the Altitude Sports Radio app.
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: He's going to have his scheduled starts and like I
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: have a lot of faith in Wedge and I've seen
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: him play real well for us. So He'll have his
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: scheduled starts, and so we'll block you, and we'll just
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: kind of go from there. We always leave it open
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: to a little bit of interpretation as to who we're
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: going to go with on any given night, depending on rest.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: But it's not like I'm not going to start him
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: the next time. I think he deserves a start because
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: he had a bad night.
• 0:43
  Speaker 3: Bednar after the game, again, it was a bad start
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: from Wedgwood, but it was a bad game from everybody.
• 0:52
  Speaker 4: I just.
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: I think these games are happening far too frequently. Coach
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: has said as much after the game. We'll get more
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: audio of that in a second, and we'll talk to
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: him in an hour. But the Avs, this isn't like
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: the beginning of the season anymore. Like, the season started
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: September 30th. You've been at this for a while. And
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: these types of games, I'm not concerned with the record.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: The record's fine. 9-6-1 is fine. We just went back
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: and looked in the– Championship season, the Stanley Cup season,
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: they started the year 10-5-1.
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: So you're a game off that pace. Okay, whatever. It's
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: not about the record.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: It's about how often the losses turn into games like yesterday.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: That's my problem.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: It's the non-competitive nature in which those games become very,
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: very quickly. And they've had a bad habit even in
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: wins this year of giving up early goals and having
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: to come back from deficits.
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: It's another thing. Like, Vic, you know this as well
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: as anybody.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: We spent all this time talking about the Broncos and
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: how great their record is, but there are still complaints
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: about the Broncos because of the way it looks, right?
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: And I think with the Avs this year, it's more
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: about the way these games have looked than the overall results.
• 2:08
  Speaker 5: The amount of attacking that Columbus got away with at
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: the net last night was downright, and I know Coach
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: Bednar is going to talk about it, but.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: Where is everybody? I don't know. Where's the defense? Did
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: you see the top players for the Avs last night? McKinnon, McCarr,
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: minus three. Landeskog, minus three. No, your best players on
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: your team. McKinnon, Natchez, Leckie, McCarr, Taves. Dash threes. All
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: of them. That just doesn't happen.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: No.
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: With those guys. No, but it's the... Last night was weird.
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: First of all, I did not like, as a colorblind
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: human being, The uniform matchup last night.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: Listen to me.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Listen.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: Listen.
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: Hockey, people, color people, colorblind people, you don't understand how
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: tough it is to watch that game when you don't
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: see colors.
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: Hang on a second. Just so you know, I see
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: all colors.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: I know all the colors. I can recognize them. I'm
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: so glad you mentioned this. That was an awful matchup
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: last night. It was hard to tell when they went
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: like sort of overhead cam on this.
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: Who was who? For me, it was difficult to tell.
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: So explain to me, what color? It was like a
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: light gray sweater for Columbus and the road whites for
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: the Avs. Why would you do that? I don't know.
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: Why don't they get together and say, okay, guys, we're
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: going light gray. You guys wear your darks.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: Yes, that's what they should have done.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: Because even where the colors were around the shoulders and
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: on the sides, look, it was a blue and a
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: red or maroon for the Avs, but it was still
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: difficult to tell with the contrast of the actual sweater.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: Nah, it's just not right. You know, I play a
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: lot of pickup basketball.
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: I won't play unless each team has different colors or
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: one team's shirt and skins.
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: I won't do it. Not doing it. Not playing any
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: little games.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: So just to back you up, it wasn't just you, Vic. I,
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: who can see all colors, had a tough time last night.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Maybe because every time I saw, oh, well, here they come. Oh, wait,
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: that's Columbus. Yeah. Columbus, you know, maybe that was it.
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: Columbus looked like the Avs last night. Maybe. It's like
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: a Freaky Friday situation.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: All I'm saying is this. I'm not concerned with the record.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: I am concerned with how many games, the frequency in
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: which it looks like that. The feeling that you get
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: where it's like, there's 10 minutes left in the second period,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: and I want to turn the game off.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: Like, that is the problem. Did you see the finish
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: of that Winnipeg-Montreal game? I did not, no.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: My.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: Goodness. It's the greatest comeback regular season. Goals down. In
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: NHL history. Other than that, you didn't miss much. Really?
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: Let's see here. Winnipeg. Winnipeg was down four goals for nothing.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: With God, how much time? Oh my God. With two
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: and a half to go.
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: They were down for nothing with two and a half
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: minutes to play in the game. In the game. Wow.
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: And they just ripped off four of them, including two.
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: in the final 30, sent it to overtime, and won
• 5:32
  Speaker 5: the game.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: That's crazy. Now, could you imagine if you're the opposing,
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: if you're that Montreal goalie, and you're walking off that
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: ice after that? Oh, my God.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: You're dying inside. Now, I'd say I would rather lose
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: the way that the Avs did than to do that,
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: than to lose that way.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: 100%.
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: I mean, you lose like that, and it's like anything
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: can happen.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: So we'll talk to Bednar at 9 o'clock this morning.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, he said, we'll leave you with this.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: This is what he said.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: Like, I expect a little bit of it early in
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: the season. Like I said, so we've been patient. We've
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: been going over some things, and then we see a
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: handful of good games. But this game's showing up too
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: much for me, right? So there has to be a line.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: And now, like I said, we just hit 20% through
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: the season. So it's not a small window. So now
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: we have to meet again and discuss some things, and
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: I have to change my approach as to distributing ice
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: time as I see fit with the guys that are
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: going or not going and just how I operate the
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: bench because they have to.
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: Figure it out.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: I think that's a perfect way to put it. You
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: give them time at the beginning of the season, but
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: enough's enough.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: I wonder how that.
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: Will manifest itself, changing up ice time. Like who gets less,
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: who gets more.
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: I wonder who he's targeting. I wonder what he's looking at.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: We can ask him at 9 o'clock when he joins us.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: In the meantime, Vic, I was shocked yesterday. I mean,
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: shocked when I saw this.
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: What do you mean Cam Johnson's a game-time decision? I
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: couldn't believe it. I thought he was dead. It must
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: have been a cramp. It had to be, right? Yeah,
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: it had to be a cramp. There's no hamstring pull
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: that looks like that in which you're a game-time decision
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: 48 hours later. It had to be a cramp, and
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: it cramped up so severely that he couldn't move and
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: It was the final minute of the game. So they couldn't,
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: you know, no use putting them back in.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: So that's what it was. Had to be a cramp.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: Have you ever had one of those cramps that I
• 7:31
  Speaker 4: had one at a meeting the other day? So you
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: think you got it.
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: Covered, right?
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: You're like, okay, cramping. All right. It's good. Oh, it's
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: coming back. Never good. No, you know, like it hits
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: you like two or three times. There's three won't go away.
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: Three places. I get a cramp hamstring. The arch of
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: my foot, which is terrible. Because that one, you're like
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: peeling your toes all the way back. It's miserable. And
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: I get it like, I don't know what this thing
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: is in my hip. Whatever that sort.
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: Of thing is.
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: The thing is in your hip? There's something that's down
• 8:02
  Speaker 4: here in my hip that every once in a while
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: I get it like that. I don't know how. You
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: have a bullet?
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: Maybe.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: Did you get shot? I don't know. It feels like
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: I'm getting shot. That's all I know.
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: No, that is truly what I saw. That he was
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: a game-time probable. I could not believe it. And it
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: was clearly a cramp. And we'll find out tonight whether
• 8:23
  Speaker 5: or not.
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: Cramps are one thing. Strains are another.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: Consider this. It's been more than a month. Spencer Jones
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: still out with a strain.
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: I know.
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: They could use some Spencer Jones. The Nuggets are really
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: good at that four-to-six-week thing. Oh, my God. They're... The experts. Oh,
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: it actually says hip flexor, I'm guessing. That sounds right.
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: Is that what hurts? I don't know what a hip
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: flexor is. Oh, I had one of those injuries in
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: high school. That thing is debilitating. Trust me. Yes, your
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: hip flexor can cramp. Okay, that's got to be it then.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: But I get it right. Yeah, right down in there.
• 9:09
  Speaker 4: And it's bad.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: So.
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: The Nuggets are going to face a Toronto team tonight,
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: and you're going to think to yourself, big deal, Toronto, right?
• 9:17
  Speaker 4: They don't have Kawhi Leonard. Big deal, Toronto.
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: Toronto plays a style that is going to drive a
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: lot of teams crazy because you know those teams that
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: just sort of go all out, those teams that you're like,
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: all right, calm down.
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: We're just playing a rec league game here, right? That's Toronto.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: And the Nuggets got to bring it tonight in the
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: hustle department. Otherwise, a game like this could get crazy.
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: Toronto's not that good. What are they? They're 4-3.
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: Got a better record than the Nuggets right now. They've
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: won four games. Barely lost to the Lakers. Coming off
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: a win against the Clippers. Again, they're missing their best player.
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: I'll be ready to run a night.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: Be ready to run.
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: And I am begging for inefficient Joker game.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: I miss them. I need them.
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: So speaking of efficiency, did you see the stats that
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: Dan Hyatt, our nuggets guy, um, We make the assumption
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: that Joker is having an off start to the season, which,
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: for all argument's sake, if you compare this season to
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: his last six, yes, this is not the same season. However,
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: look at the numbers. Nikola Jokic's numbers this season, 22-9-9.
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: 22-9-9 is what he's averaging. No one's done that outside
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: of Joker a year ago.
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: Oh, I know, like, but this is the thing with him. Yeah,
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: his standard is so high. But Joker's always.
• 10:52
  Speaker 7: His standard is so high.
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: He's always going to have numbers at the end of
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: the game because he's still very, very good.
• 10:58
  Speaker 4: The difference, to me, is very simple. You can tell.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: Like, we are all in Denver who watch every game.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: We're Jokic experts. We know when he plays a good
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: game or when he plays a bad game. He's had
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: bad games, Vic, where he finishes with 34-18-9, and you're like,
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: I don't think he played well.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: We know what it looks like. He hasn't looked that
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: way this year. He just hasn't. I don't disagree with
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: you one bit. For him, it's the three-point shots not falling.
• 11:27
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: Because that would give him a lot of room for–
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: if he hits his threes– It opens up everything inside.
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: And his shooting percentage isn't where we're used to seeing it.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: It's sub 50. He doesn't do that. He had a season, Vic,
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: just a few years ago. He shot 60% from the floor. Yeah.
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: So hopefully that changes tonight. You can hear it right here.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Altitude Sports Radio 92.5. Again, Jared Bednar is going to
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: join us at 9 o'clock this morning.
• 11:56
  Speaker 7: Brett, which part of your body did you say you
• 11:58
  Speaker 7: get those pains in again? Where was it?
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: The hip. Oh, here we go. But no, it's not that.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: It's not cracking. It is the knot that then starts
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: to turn and twist. Okay, so I don't know.
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: How many times you've ever pulled a muscle. You said
• 12:18
  Speaker 5: you pulled your hammy a couple years ago.
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Hammy, I pulled a groin, yeah.
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: All right, so I've pulled many a muscles, right? And
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: the feeling when you first pull the muscle, depending on
• 12:29
  Speaker 5: the severity of the pull, There's hard pulls, like when
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: I pulled my hamstring once playing flag, I was down
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: on the ground and I couldn't move.
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: It's these subtle pulls.
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: It's the ones that are strains, like minor strains that
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: take forever to heal. Do you know that feeling? It
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: feels like the rubber band is losing its rubber nature
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: to it.
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: It just goes, elasticity. Yeah, it doesn't really hurt like
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: when you pull it, but you feel it go, shh.
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: But then you get overconfident that like, oh, it's like fine. Yeah,
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: it's fine. And then you put some, then you go
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: back and like, oh, no, it's not.
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: No, it's not fine, actually. And then it's another three
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: weeks before you feel like it's fine again. And then
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: it's not fine again. Then you just go through a cycle.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: And then the rest of your life is just your
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: hamstring sucks.
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: And you're just waiting for it to pull again.

  Speaker 4: the abs the night before jared bednar shows up you're
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: like come on win the game please happy go lucky.
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: For trying out loud and that's it it's like the
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: second week in a row we're doing this thing um.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: Did I see this correctly yesterday, Vic? Did the Nuggets
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: decline the team option for Deron Holmes? Yes, this happened
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: a few days ago. Yeah. That's not good. Well, I mean,
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: what should they have done in your mind? What evidence
• 14:06
  Speaker 4: is there to say they should have picked it up? Well,
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I've never seen them play. I have
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: no idea. Okay, well then.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: There's your evidence. That one hurts then.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Because you made a pretty sizable investment to move up
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: in the draft to take him specifically.
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: Right. It doesn't just hurt. Can you please pull up
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: on your computer the amount of assets that Denver Nuggets
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: utilized to move up just a few spots in the
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: first round to make that pick?
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: The Nuggets moved up six spots.
• 14:41
  Speaker 4: They gave up. They swapped their first rounders that year.
• 14:44
  Speaker 4: So they went from 28 to 22. All right. They
• 14:47
  Speaker 4: also gave up their second-rounder No.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: 56 pick of that draft and two future second-round picks.
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: All right, so three picks, essentially, because the swap, I
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: don't count.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: Three picks. They gave up three picks to move up
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: six spots.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: And they made another trade where they traded three second-round
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: picks to move off of $ 5 million Reggie Jackson.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: That was a rough one.
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: That's a rough investment there because— Assets is what they
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: need now, guess what?
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: To move off other contracts. Well, Vic, what... How do
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: I phrase this?
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: Was Deron Holmes just never going to be anything, or
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: did the injury totally derail him from being anything?
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: I have no idea. I mean, how do we assess
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: something like that? We don't know.
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: I mean, you get hurt basically on the first day
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: of school. You get hurt in summer league. Your entire
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: rookie season is washed. And then I haven't seen enough
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: of him in consecutive games to give you an honest evaluation.
• 15:55
  Speaker 6: Yeah. You?
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: No, I don't think we've seen him play, like, at all.
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: Not meaningful minutes, anyway. That's what's funny. Like, Trevin Brazil.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Has immediately, like, from the first game of the year,
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: they went to the bench and he was on the floor.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: Do you know that this is crazy? Do you know
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: that Nikola Jokic has already played more minutes with Trevor
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: in Brazil so far this season than he has at
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: any point with Zeke Nagy?
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: I was just, I was trying to find that stat.
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: But yes, I saw that. And that is unbelievable.
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: You mean on the floor together? On the floor together.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Ever.
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: That is unbelievable. Like, that is crazy.
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: Well, it's good and bad. You found a guy that
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: can contribute, that's athletic. You know, the more I watch
• 16:43
  Speaker 5: these NBA games, it has gone young, man. Young and
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: athletic is the wave. Young and athletic. I mean, you
• 16:53
  Speaker 5: watch that Portland game. Did you see how every guy
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: on their team could shoot and run.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: And move and run and jump? And yeah, everybody. That's
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: just it.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: It's why I think the trend should always be. For
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: any team, even if you're a contender, you should be
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: looking to have young pieces that are athletic to grow with.
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: In every line of work, like this show is too old.
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: We are too old. Me and Mosier make this show old.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: We need a 17-year-old producer is what we need. We
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: need somebody fresh and hip. Nelly, that mustache makes you 50.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 17:33
  Speaker 7: Hey, I've got aura. I play Fortnite.
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: We do need more of that. I'm here to acknowledge
• 17:41
  Speaker 5: I embrace youthful people. I'm an old man without a prostate.
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: And I'm not saying they could have done anything about it,
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: but it's part of the reason why it was so
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: painful to me to watch P. Watt go.
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: And I know he's not crushing it in Cleveland or
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: anything like that, but you talk about young athletic pieces.
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: I get it. It's one of them.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: But you were able to find Trevin Brazil, which is big,
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: because that guy is as young and as athletic as
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: you could ask for.
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: So tonight, again... It's Toronto. And part of you is like, oh,
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: it's Toronto. It's a big deal.
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: But the Nuggets aren't playing at home. They're not just
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: playing good basketball at home.
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: I don't know what it is at home. I just
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: don't get it. Well, they're the opposite of the Avs.
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: The Avs are really good at home and miserable on
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: the road.
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: For a guy who's used to seeing the Nuggets dominate
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: on their home court over the years, go back in
• 18:34
  Speaker 5: history and.
• 18:34
  Speaker 4: Look at what the Nuggets... Everybody hates playing here because.
• 18:37
  Speaker 5: The Nuggets would just run them out of the gym,
• 18:39
  Speaker 5: get them in the oxygen tank, and game's over.
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: They're just not that way anymore. Especially choked them out
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: late in the fourth quarter.
• 18:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and what's the most frustrating part of the losing
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: at home so far this season, they're 1-2, and that
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: 1 required a magical comeback, is their second half play.
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: They're running out of gas in the second half. So
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: Toronto tonight, here's why I'm a little troubled. Dan gave
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: me these.
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: Toronto leads the league in takeaways. So they're all over.
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: I told you, they're one of those pesky teams. They're pesky. Yeah.
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: And they lead the lead in fast break points.
• 19:16
  Speaker 4: They don't shoot many threes. They just go to the rim.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: They go to the rim, they attack. And those are
• 19:20
  Speaker 4: the two areas where the Nuggets, defensively, they're suspect. Getting
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: beaten on the perimeter. Yep. Attacking the rim. Blow-bys.
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: So, I don't know how many times we're going to
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: address this. Because everybody seems to say Like, take the
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: Portland game. Oh my God, Klingon just dominated the boards.
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: He cleaned everything up.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: He had easy dunks. Well, why? What is the source
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: of that? What is causing that? What is causing that?
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: Is it the interior defense or is it the perimeter defense.
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: Where does it start what's perimeter it starts with somebody
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: getting beaten on the.
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: Perimeter yes now the the allowing of offensive rebounds is
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: a gigantic problem That was awful. I mean, Portland had, what, 17,
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: 18 extra possessions than the Nuggets did?
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: No wonder you lost.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: They need to be a lot cleaner on the boards
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: and not give up second-chance opportunities.
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: But.
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: Hey, so what has to happen, because we talked about
• 20:18
  Speaker 5: this with the Avs, what has to happen for the
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: Nuggets to change your mind six games in? When I
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: say change your mind, like, I don't know how many
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: Nuggets fans have watched so far and said, yeah, it's
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: a championship team, right?
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: You sort of... There's a lot of teams out there
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: you're like, oh, but... What can change your mind? It's
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: a good question.
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: Because you knew where I was at in the offseason.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: I felt for the first time that this team was not...
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: For the first time since they won the title, it
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: was the first time I felt like that's just not
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: a roster that I think can win a championship.
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: For me, it would have to be... AG.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: And Joker need to look a lot more consistent.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: And....
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: I think just overall, there's got to be a better
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: defensive effort. I don't think this team is going to
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: outscore a lot of other teams. They got to be
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: really good.
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: On the defensive side.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: And maybe that changes a little bit with a healthy
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: Spencer Jones. I think Spencer Jones can change a lot
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: when he comes back because he does a lot of
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: the things that just guys in this roster can't do.
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: But I don't know. What's your answer?
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: I think they need another shock-creating guard. I hate to
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: put this on the roster, but they need another shot-creating guard.
• 21:42
  Speaker 5: They're putting so much pressure on Jamal Murray already, and
• 21:47
  Speaker 5: you wonder whether the volume is going.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: To catch up to him and he runs out of gas.
• 21:51
  Speaker 5: But you look at the games that they've won. They
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: don't win that New Orleans game without Jamal going crazy.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: No. They don't win that Phoenix game without Jamal going crazy. Nope.
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: They aren't in the Portland game without Jamal going crazy. So,
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: he's the only.
• 22:09
  Speaker 5: Guy right now at the perimeter who's a shot creator.
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: And you know the difference, right?
• 22:15
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: Just give me the ball and let me go do something.
• 22:17
  Speaker 4: That kind of guy. He's the only guy they got.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: I think that DeMar coming off the bench for that unit,
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: he tried to go ISO a lot more in that
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: last game.
• 22:27
  Speaker 4: I think that's kind of got to be his role. But, yeah.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 22:31
  Speaker 3: Game tonight right here on 92.5 at 7 o'clock. Let
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: me ask you a question, Vic. I've seen some back
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: and forth on this. Tuesday, Dion Presser Day are always fun.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: There's a moment he was talking about his running backs.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: And he said this.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: I want to get your thoughts here.
• 22:49
  Speaker 6: And he haven't had a pity party.
• 22:50
  Speaker 4: He could have. And he should have.
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: Because you've seen Moe, you know, Curly, Larry, whoever, all
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: in the backfield. Not saying 83 Stooges, but you know
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: what I'm saying. You've seen him multiple names. I can't
• 23:03
  Speaker 6: remember names that saved my life. But he hadn't gotten
• 23:07
  Speaker 6: his opportunity, a true opportunity, and he got it.
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: Is it a big deal that Deion doesn't know the
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: name of his running back?
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: Eh.
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: I'm just asking the question. There's a lot of people
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: that say, like, it's not a big deal. It probably
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: feels like you should probably know at least a couple.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: I didn't know your name for the first three weeks
• 23:25
  Speaker 4: on the job. Yeah, I know. But he's a coach.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: He's talking about running backs who play for him. I
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: called you Greg on the air.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: You did.
• 23:34
  Speaker 5: But the first time I tossed, when Katie Wingy first
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: started with us, I forgot her name. I think I
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: called her Katie Winger. Some of us are just not
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: good with names.
• 23:47
  Speaker 4: But shouldn't you know your running back's name? I think
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: you're getting nitpicky now. There's a lot of reasons. There's
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: a lot of reasons to be. critical of the job
• 23:58
  Speaker 4: going on up there, but that one doesn't bother me. Okay,
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: just asking. Just being honest with you. Just asking the question,
• 24:04
  Speaker 4: that's all.
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: By the way, when you went as Greg, initially, when
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: I called you Greg, did you want to correct me
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: or did you just accept it?
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: I honestly just think we turned it into a bit,
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: didn't we? No, but I mean, I honestly thought your
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: name was Greg.
• 24:22
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 24:23
  Speaker 4: But why didn't you correct me?
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: I think I was confused on who you were referring to.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: I was like, maybe I misheard him. Maybe he was
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: talking to his buddy, Greg, and he said this. But
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: we went on the air for two or three days,
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: and I'm calling you Greg.
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: I mean, I feel like I corrected you. But can
• 24:44
  Speaker 4: I go back to something real quick?
• 24:45
  Speaker 3: If Sean Payton's at the press conference, and he goes, yeah,
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: and remember, the Broncos, they have a tough time running
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: the football. And they said, what did you think of
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: the play of your running backs? And he goes, yeah,
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: I think whatever his name is, he's doing a great job.
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: Wouldn't you be like, hey, you should know. Even if
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: it's like Cody Schrader. Senior moments, bro. Senior moments. The
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: other day I ran into my niece and I couldn't
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: remember her name. Can I say this?
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: And I'm going to say this as somebody who is
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: in the Dion side of things here. I think it's
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: incredibly kind when people remember names. Like, people remember names
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: really well. It's like one of the greatest assets I
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: think you can have in life.
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: I don't know anybody's name.
• 25:35
  Speaker 5: You know, there's a skill involved there, and I've read
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: books about it, and I try to incorporate this skill,
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: and I'm so bad at it. You're so right about
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: those who remember everyone's names. There's a video that was released.
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: I just saw it yesterday. LaMelo Ball is renowned. For
• 25:51
  Speaker 5: knowing everyone's name.
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: I saw this. Yeah.
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: He's walking off the court into the tunnel to the
• 25:56
  Speaker 5: locker room. A camera is following him. He's shaking hands
• 26:00
  Speaker 5: with people on the way to the locker room. He
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: must have shook 10 people's hands. He knew all their names.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: And what they... You know, ushers, attendants. Yeah. Locker room.
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: He knew all their names. He said, hey... It's an
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: incredible asset. And I envy people who can do that.
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: Me too. I wish... I wish I were more oriented.
• 26:22
  Speaker 4: Sometimes I panic.
• 26:25
  Speaker 5: Like, I saw a guy the other day, and I
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: quickly said a name, and 30 seconds during the conversation,
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: I'm like, did I just call him by the right name?
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: Yes, and that's all you're thinking about. So now you're
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: being double rude because they're talking to you and you
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: aren't listening to them. Yes, yes.
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: I'm with you.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: By the way, speaking of the Sanders family, did you
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: see Deshaun Watson's concussion protocol?
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: Should Dormike get the start this week?
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: That should be interesting because I'm not saying Cleveland's coming
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: back down to earth, but what if Shador does something?
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: What if he has a great game?
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. Deshaun Watson has been all right
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: this year. The Cleveland Browns are not winning football games
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: because Deshaun Watson's been awesome, but they've been winning.
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: What if Shador puts.
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: Up 350 in three touchdowns? And I think this is another,
• 27:19
  Speaker 3: if I remember right, let me go look this up.
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: I think they have another tough game this week. They
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: are playing the... Oh, never mind. They're playing the Saints,
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: but it's in New Orleans. If he goes out against
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: New Orleans and puts up 30 points, three touchdowns, 300
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: yards passing, well, now what? Do you go right back
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: to Deshaun? Or do you let him try and work?
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: Because here's the thing. Here's the Browns' wins this year, Vic.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: They've beaten the Bucs. They've beaten the Panthers.
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: They beat the Steelers. That's a good win.
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: They've beaten the Ravens without Lamar Jackson, and they've beaten
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: the Tennessee Titans. Their losses have been at Pittsburgh, at
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: the Jets, and at Jacksonville. So the tough teams they've
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: played with the exception of one Pittsburgh win.
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: It's not like they've.
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: Been beating the Seahawks and the Niners in back-to-back weeks.
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean? So I don't know.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: I think it would make for some pretty great drama
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: If he went out and played well. Here's the other thing.
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: We had, oh, by the way, coming up. I guess
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: I'm doing a preemptive, oh, by the way. Did you
• 28:27
  Speaker 3: see this news from an hour ago, Vic? Remember the
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: insane story of Brandon Ayuk? The receiver out of San Fran.
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: Well, it's been insane for a year, bro.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: He just turned in paperwork to be reinstated.
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: His agent, Drew Rosenhaus, said, He will be reporting to
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: the Niners training facility Friday afternoon.
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: That's hilarious. What are they going to do?
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: He's openly talked trash about everybody within that locker room
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: and that organization.
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: But he's like, I'm back. Nobody wants this guy. You're
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: talking about a loose cannon. I don't understand that either.
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: But can you stop him?
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: Does it surprise you that Drew Rosenhaus is his agent?
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: No.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: He's got some experience in the wide receiver, that looks like.
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: He's going through a bit of a meltdown. But all
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: I'm saying is, do the Niners, can they hit him
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: with a conduct detrimental to the team?
• 29:27
  Speaker 4: I have no idea. Sort of stay away thing? I
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: have no idea what you do in that situation. Because
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: it can only mean, he's not going to play. He's
• 29:35
  Speaker 4: not going to play for the Niners. Think about this.
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: The Niners are one of the better teams. in the
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: league right now.
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: The last thing you need is that walking through the
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: door and creating some sort of issue where one doesn't exist.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: I would be looking for everything in my power to
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: be like, nope, you said that we were stupid, and
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: that's conduct detrimental. Stay home. Can't come here. Sorry. Yeah,
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: I guess what constitutes conduct detrimental? I've called you stupid before.
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: Can I be suspended for conduct detrimental? Oh, I see
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: the HR guy here. We have a conversation. Seriously, go out.
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: During this break, in fact, bring the HR guy on
• 30:16
  Speaker 4: the show and ask him. Oh, no, no, no, Vic.
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: We don't want to welcome him.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: I'm not going to say Beetlejuice three times in the mirror,
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: even if I don't think something's going to happen, okay?
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: We're going to stay away from that. I want to
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: know how far I can take this before I'm suspended
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: for conduct detrimental. Keep calling me names. We'll find out
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: pretty quick. Oh, by the way, next.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Oh!
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: Absolutely nothing to do with all that.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: By.
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: Anime, Star Wars, Star Trek.
• 30:43
  Speaker 6: The.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: The toilet suddenly shattered and collapsed beneath him.
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: Way.

  Speaker 8: Ha ha ha ha!
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: All right, Jared Bednar in 15 minutes.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, stories around sports in the world
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: we feel like you should be aware of. Oh, by
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: the way, Vic, did you see that Russell Wilson interviewed
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: for NC State's head coaching job?
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I did see that. I done did see that.
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: Apparently the broadcasting bug isn't enough to fulfill him.
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: He wants to get back in the game. It's interesting
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: what people need. to have that same adrenaline rush.
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: And a lot of these guys, unless they're in the
• 31:36
  Speaker 5: game in some capacity, I totally understand it.
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: He wants to be back in the game. Yeah. I
• 31:44
  Speaker 4: actually think he'd be a good coach. I think he'd
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: be a great coach. I really do. I think he'd
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: be a great coach. You know why?
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: He knows how to politic. Well, and he's, look, he's
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: a guy that maybe in this era, you might say
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: it's soft. He's a very positive guy, would be very player-friendly,
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: especially in the college game where you got to have, look,
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: let's be honest, these kids can up and leave whenever
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: they want to. You got to have a different sort
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: of tone with them.
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: And you're not relying on him. He's a corporate leader type.
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: That's what he would be.
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 32:17
  Speaker 5: He could assemble a staff and let them coach and
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: be a corporate leader, and I think he'd be great
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: at it.
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: I totally agree with you. Here's another one.
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: Speaking of the broadcast booth, oh, by the way, A
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: report from Andrew Marchand. So ESPN's going through this weird
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: thing with Monday Night Football that Joe Buck, Troy Aikman
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: been together for 25 years.
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: Looks like it's coming to an end, right? Yeah.
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: Like Buck's going to stick around, but it doesn't look
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: like Aikman's going to after this year. Peyton Manning is
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: reportedly ESPN's top choice to replace Troy Aikman. Now, I
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: don't know if Manning would want it. Like, he's already
• 32:52
  Speaker 3: kind of doing this on his own terms with his
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: Manning cast. Maybe he wants it, maybe not, but the
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: rumor is Greg Olson is viewed to be the most likely.
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: I've heard, I've got some intel from people inside the
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: business that tell me Greg Olson, it's his job to
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: lose at this point. However, the only thing I think
• 33:13
  Speaker 5: that could entice Peyton into doing it would be just
• 33:17
  Speaker 5: an extraordinary bundle of money that would, there's no way
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: you can deny it.
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: Because I don't think he wants that job. Why would he?
• 33:25
  Speaker 4: He already does that job.
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: In his own style with his brother, and he's having
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: a great time doing it.
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: For his own company. Exactly right. So why would he?
• 33:32
  Speaker 4: Unless you made it just so... You made the money
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: so much that he could not walk away from it.
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: That would be the only way. Oh, by the way.
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: That's what they did with Brady, right?
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: Didn't they give Brady like $ 300 million from.
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: Fox or something? Yeah, a ridiculous amount. Oh, by the way,
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: I've got to bring this up.
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: My colleague Jason Richardson, who you'll see tonight on our
• 33:54
  Speaker 5: Nuggets pregame show. Two-time NBA dunk champion. He's walking proud
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: today because last night his youngest son, Jackson Richardson, he's
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: got two kids. One, Jace, that plays for Orlando. And Jackson,
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: who's a freshman at Alabama, scored his very first bucket
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: as a collegian for Bama. And the bucket wasn't just
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: your typical bucket. It was a windmill off two-foot slam
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: that was exactly like the Jason Richardson slam.
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: That to win him a dunk contest in the NBA.
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: I know, how cool.
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: That's got to be such an amazing feeling if you're
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: Jay Rich. You know, I just saw, I don't know
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: if you caught this on Monday Night Football, Marcus Spears
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: was at the desk. His son was making his college
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: debut that night, and they showed him walking through the
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: tunnel into the arena.
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: He got a little choked up. Like, that stuff is awesome. Dude,
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you, there's nothing like the pride you have
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: for your kids in situations like that. The nerves that
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: you may have had is a, I've even asked you,
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: I've asked guys with kids in the league, I mean,
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: how nervous do you get watching twice the nerves that
• 34:58
  Speaker 4: you got playing twice the nerves? You know what's funny?
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: Like, my dad wasn't a professional athlete, but my dad
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: always said, like, he played sports.
• 35:04
  Speaker 4: He played college basketball.
• 35:06
  Speaker 3: He always said, I was way more nervous watching you
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: guys than I ever was playing in a game.
• 35:11
  Speaker 5: Well, aren't you the one who told me that your dad,
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: during your at-bats, would walk around with four or five
• 35:15
  Speaker 5: darts in his mouth?
• 35:16
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, of course. But that's, you know, that's his.
• 35:21
  Speaker 4: Equilibrium.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: That's his cope.
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: No, that's his equilibrium. That's what he does.
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: No, I remember, Vic, we had in the state tournament
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: when I was in high school, we had a 17-inning game.
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: Just wouldn't end. My dad, I looked at him. He's
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: outside the fence. He's doing this with his shirt. He's
• 35:37
  Speaker 3: covering his.
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: Mouth with his shirt. By the time the game ended, Vic,
• 35:40
  Speaker 4: the front of his shirt was dipped down to mid-chest.
• 35:45
  Speaker 4: He wore it out so much. Oh, by the way,
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: I got a question for you.
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: Everybody's talking about shortening seasons, except the NHL wants to
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: extend it and the NFL wants to. So basketball, this
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: idea is like, do we move off 82 games? That's
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: not going to happen. Too much money in it, right?
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: So the next idea is, well, what if we shorten the.
• 36:04
  Speaker 4: Game to 40 minutes? The Mark Cuban idea. So Adam Silver,
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: according to Chris Mannix, likes the idea. He likes it.
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: Here's my question, though. If the game was cut to
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: 40 minutes....
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: In my head, I feel like this just hurts bench
• 36:22
  Speaker 3: players and role guys.
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: I totally agree with you. I was thinking about this
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: as well. Jamal's still playing 34 to 35 minutes. Now,
• 36:28
  Speaker 4: instead of playing 35 to 48, you're playing 35 to 40. Yeah.
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: This doesn't affect the starters. Yeah, I thought the same thing.
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: I thought the same thing. I said, well, wait a minute.
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: You're still going to have your best players on the
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: floor for as long as they possibly can go.
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the guy who gets 12 minutes a night now
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: gets six instead. That's what's going to happen. I thought
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: the same thing.
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: We would have to see inaction before we pass judgment,
• 36:53
  Speaker 5: but my initial reaction was that.
• 36:56
  Speaker 4: You're just going to play your guys the same amount
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: of minutes. Right.
• 36:59
  Speaker 3: If you're looking to cut down on wear and tear
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: and injuries for starters, I don't think this fixes anything.
• 37:04
  Speaker 4: Oh, by the way, this just in.
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: You know about Kristaps Przingis, who has not played with
• 37:09
  Speaker 5: the Golden State Warriors at all this year.
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: He's got some sort of ailment. Is that the same
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: thing that stems back to the Boston days? Yes. He's
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: had some sort of health condition. He has not played.
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: He has not showed up.
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: Well, the Warriors are now, they're not delivering payment to
• 37:25
  Speaker 5: Kristaps Porzingis on his $ 20 million salary. They're not paying
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: him because they say, quote, he's not rendering services. So
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: they've stopped paying him.
• 37:34
  Speaker 4: He's going to go to court, clearly. It still goes
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: against the cap. His money's still, but they're just not
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: going to pay him the money.
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: But if you're, If you have a medical condition that
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: they were aware of at the time they acquired you,
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: how can they punish him for a medical condition that
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: they knew about?
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: Dude, I don't know all of the details there. It's
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: going to go to court, clearly. There's going to be
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: an arbitration on this. But the fact that they're just saying, nope,
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: we're not going to pay you. Yeah. They know more
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: than we do. I suppose.
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: I have a hard time believing that the Players Association
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: is going to allow that to happen.
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: It just seems like a tough sell.
• 38:11
  Speaker 5: Hey, Chris Bryant hasn't rendered services for the Colorado Rockies.
• 38:15
  Speaker 4: He's still getting checks. Yeah. Did you see what Dabo
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: Swinney said? Oh, by the way.
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: So Clemson has just not been the same. And I
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: think that Dabo has no idea how to navigate this
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: transfer and NIL era. Ever since this was ushered in,
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: Clemson has not been a team that has been feared
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: in the college football ranks. He went to his press
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: conference yesterday and said this.
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: What do you think?
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: We're going for our sixth win in this game. You
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: talk about consistency. That would be 27 years in a
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: row for Clemson and 18 years in a row for me.
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: When you think about the consistency in that, six wins,
• 38:57
  Speaker 3: pretty low bar, but that list is just Clemson, Georgia,
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: Ohio State, and Oklahoma. If a coach at a program
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: that spends top dollar and wants to be in the
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: national title conversation is bragging about six wins, we're down
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: pretty bad here, boys.
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: We ain't going to the place we need to go.
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: And I've said for a long time, I.
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: Just think that Dabo was really, really good eight years ago.
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: And ever since all these changes happened, he has no
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: idea how to compete with it.
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: No idea.
• 39:33
  Speaker 5: Well, he carried Clemson to its height, right? And sometimes
• 39:39
  Speaker 5: it ends, and it looks like the end there for him.
• 39:41
  Speaker 5: Dabo and they're not the same.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: Did he say something last year about, If they want
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: to fire me, that's fine.
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: I'll get another job instantly. Didn't he say something like that?
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: He's been pretty lippy.
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I think he feels like it's that battle,
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: whether you're a player or a coach. Why don't you
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: acknowledge what I've done in the past? People are like, well,
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: because right now you stink.
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: Because that's the past.
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: Oh, by the way, in case you missed it last night,
• 40:06
  Speaker 5: we're going to talk to Jared Bednar here soon, but
• 40:08
  Speaker 5: there was another game that took place last night featuring
• 40:10
  Speaker 5: another division team, Winnipeg. Winnipeg was down by four goals
• 40:14
  Speaker 5: in Montreal.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: It was 4-0.
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: 220 to play in the game. 220 left in regulation.
• 40:20
  Speaker 4: It was 4-0. They were down. They won the game.
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: I repeat, they were trailing 4-0 with 220 to go.
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: That's unbelievable. And they won the game in overtime.
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: Literally, for as bad as last night was, and it
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: was miserable, it was, I'm going to turn the game
• 40:40
  Speaker 3: off in the second period kind of night.
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: I prefer that to what just happened. It was the latest...
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: Four-goal comeback in NHL history. Has to be. Well, it was. No, no, no. Like,
• 40:53
  Speaker 4: two and a half minutes down four. It's crazy. All right, Nelly,
• 40:57
  Speaker 4: you got one for us? Yeah.
• 40:59
  Speaker 8: Oh, by the way, you guys know about Magic City,
• 41:03
  Speaker 8: the establishment in Atlanta known for its dancers and its culinary.
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: Most strip clubs got the best food. Chicken wings.
• 41:10
  Speaker 7: Culinary options.
• 41:11
  Speaker 8: So last night, they had an offer for anybody who
• 41:14
  Speaker 8: was stressed about the election. They called it From the
• 41:17
  Speaker 8: Polls to the Polls.
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: Oh, jeez.
• 41:20
  Speaker 8: You could turn in your ballot and then go to
• 41:22
  Speaker 8: Magic City and watch the election results roll in and
• 41:25
  Speaker 8: enjoy some additional entertainment. And they had drinks and wing specials.
• 41:29
  Speaker 8: So I guess, would you guys do that? Would you
• 41:31
  Speaker 8: go to the ballot box, vote, and then go get
• 41:33
  Speaker 8: yourself some chicken wangs?
• 41:34
  Speaker 4: I would not.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: Because I am not well-versed in, as you would call it, Nelly,
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: the culinary world of establishments like that.
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: Most strip clubs got the best food. Not like Mellow
• 41:45
  Speaker 4: is anyway. By the way, who goes to the polls anymore?
• 41:48
  Speaker 4: Why don't you just send the damn thing in like
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: normal people?
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I, um, is there nostalgia in going in and
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: actually standing in line and doing the whole thing?
• 41:59
  Speaker 4: I don't want to see people. Just turn it in.
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: What are we doing?
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: Wait, speaking of the election stuff, did you see Mark Teixeira?
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: won a seat in Texas, the old first baseman for
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: the Yankees and the Rangers, yeah. And I always mention this,
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: Tommy Tuberville is back in his seat, and I believe
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: he's in the Senate, I think. I only mention that
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: because Moser tried to kill him about four years ago.
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: That's right.
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: Where he said Tommy Tuberville was buried under a tree
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: or something like that.
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: I think he's in politics, actually. He's still very much alive, Moser.
• 42:39
  Speaker 4: I don't know how some of these people go to politics.
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: I don't know either.
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: Like Michelle Tafoya, I believe she lost.
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah, she lost. Her run for Senate, was it? Something
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: in Minnesota, right? Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. You think
• 42:53
  Speaker 4: there's hate and scrutiny in what we do. Could you imagine?
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: I get yelled at for saying the Broncos offense isn't
• 43:01
