  Dot US. Think of all that time, every
• 0:13
  wait in the winter, all those all actors, no one else, every
• 0:20
  Sprint in the summer. Think of every summer dies
• 0:27
  early. Mornings on the levee, late
• 0:29
  nights in the film room, bus rides to playoff games, every
• 0:35
  bump in the road, every moment of ecstasy, every moment of
• 0:41
  doubt. Years wondering is it all worth
• 0:47
  it? It's all led to this man.
• 0:53
  I After all the miles we've traveled, we're almost there.
• 1:07
  After all the hours we've worked. 1.
• 1:10
  More can make us legends. After all that time.
• 1:17
  This is our time. a career you like.
• 3:08
  You have one of you're having you have the best quarterback in
• 3:11
  the league or you do the best wide receiver in the league and
• 3:15
  you've got the best edge rusher in terms of total sacks this
• 3:18
  season in your four and seven and your playoff chances are
• 3:22
  hanging on by it. Let's make it interesting.
• 3:28
  We're making it interesting. Come.
• 3:30
  On Give us the freaking. Oh no, who the heck is that?
• 3:38
  Guy deflect a. Good health, defense from the
• 3:43
  Warriors. And to make it froze it down.
• 3:47
  What chance? This could be the pass of the
• 3:49
  year so. Far.
• 3:50
  You might watch every game the rest of the season in the NBA.
• 3:54
  Mr. Announcer Guy. So don't you go saying.
• 3:57
  That you're never going to see that.
• 3:58
  You're such a. You are looking live until the
• 4:12
  final whistle on military broadcast radio.
• 4:15
  HG Caveman in the house. What's going on this morning?
• 4:20
  Good much? Impact Weekend in NBAUFL Week
• 4:26
  Five Week 6 actually just passed us.
• 4:31
  NHL moves on to the second round of their playoffs and we got
• 4:35
  some breaking news kind of coming from the NFL.
• 4:39
  Do we kind of cover this trade real quick?
• 4:41
  Yeah, I mean, it broke this morning at like 5:00 AM.
• 4:44
  So it's been clearly they've been working hard on it all
• 4:49
  night. George Pickens is going to Jerry
• 4:53
  World. The Cowboys have traded with the
• 4:56
  Pittsburgh Steelers for George Pickens.
• 4:59
  So Dak has another weapon down there in Dallas now, man.
• 5:05
  And honestly, like you were saying before we started the
• 5:08
  show, Dak first might be the first quarterback taken some of
• 5:14
  these leagues. If you're a Cowboys fan, are you
• 5:17
  going straight to pick Dak Prescott this season?
• 5:20
  He might be a demon in fantasy this year.
• 5:24
  So yeah, they hadn't really added anybody behind CD Lamb.
• 5:31
  Sorry. New followers sound.
• 5:33
  Yeah, that's really added anyone behind CD Lamb.
• 5:36
  Paris Campbell. You know, I got doesn't do it.
• 5:38
  Couple of free agent running backs be obviously beefing up
• 5:43
  their offensive line a little bit here in the draft.
• 5:48
  Hey man, they got. A good class.
• 5:51
  They got to do a lot to, you know, compete here with these
• 5:56
  these Eagles and these commanders Giants are obviously
• 5:59
  probably feeling a little too. And that was something I you
• 6:04
  know, one of my critiques I kind of had a Dallas draft is that I
• 6:07
  thought they could have taken a running back.
• 6:11
  I earn the running back rather a receiver at some point and they
• 6:15
  didn't, they drafted 2 running backs for some reason, which I
• 6:19
  wasn't super thrilled on. I was like, why not?
• 6:22
  Like, you throw one of those picks on the wide receiver,
• 6:26
  'cause I like I I get drafting running back 'cause I'm not
• 6:29
  putting all my eggs in the Miles Sanders Javonte Williams basket.
• 6:34
  Yeah, that's not going to happen.
• 6:36
  Yeah, yeah, you got, you drafted a back as well.
• 6:39
  You got three guys back there. It's somebody there for CD Lamb.
• 6:42
  But I guess they were probably working on this for a while that
• 6:45
  might have that might have influenced their decision.
• 6:50
  Kind of weird to see how a trade like this come after the draft.
• 6:53
  And it's like all these like if I'm the Steelers and I was gonna
• 6:57
  ship off George Pickens, I would have looked to get a deal done
• 7:01
  before the draft, acquire capital and, you know, maybe use
• 7:06
  one of those picks to get his replacement.
• 7:08
  This is a head scratcher from me, from the Steelers.
• 7:12
  The Cowboys I think won this trade.
• 7:15
  The the highest pick that they give up was 1/3.
• 7:17
  There's some swapping going on, some Conservatory picks.
• 7:21
  They really didn't lose much. I doubt, but I I really feel
• 7:24
  like they didn't lose a whole lot for a a really good wide
• 7:28
  receiver. Good morning, sexy mofos.
• 7:31
  What the? Hell's.
• 7:33
  Going on. That's pretty sick right there,
• 7:37
  H got to hand it to him. He's been he he's got all the
• 7:41
  sound effects going on so crazy. I mean, crazy good deal for
• 7:48
  Dallas. My only drawback from this, so I
• 7:50
  can see is that like, I know Pickens has been a bit of a
• 7:52
  diva, maybe not the best locker room guy, but with all the
• 7:58
  talent that they've occurred there, they've definitely got
• 8:01
  what it takes to be competitive put up.
• 8:03
  Probably a solid, you know, 10 and 711 and 6 record losing the
• 8:09
  wild card round to the 49ers so. But you know, it's Cowboys
• 8:16
  fashion right there. The Cowboys tradition, I guess,
• 8:20
  Yeah, they're just really covered this quickly on the the
• 8:22
  Steelers side. Just a puzzling move with your
• 8:28
  for the back situation by no means figured out no matter what
• 8:33
  you do, whether it's Will Howard, the rookie Aaron Rodgers
• 8:37
  or some other vet coming in. I.
• 8:40
  Just don't think you can expect high end quarterback play and
• 8:46
  having two guys like DK Metcalf and George Pickens I think
• 8:50
  elevated the floor for whatever your quarterback position was
• 8:54
  going to be. And now you've, you know, you've
• 8:56
  significantly lowered that. And I just, yeah, I, I can't
• 9:01
  really, I can't really wrap my head around why they would do
• 9:08
  that. What are your you got any extra
• 9:12
  thoughts on this one caveman? The only really thought I could
• 9:16
  have is that they are just kind of really banking on the future
• 9:21
  and just trying to build what they can for later on.
• 9:24
  Like, it doesn't really seem like they're focused on this
• 9:27
  season at all. Maybe they they do think that
• 9:32
  they're in a a potential tank situation.
• 9:35
  It doesn't look like they want to compete.
• 9:37
  Yeah, I think they might finally be waving the the towel.
• 9:42
  They're not. They're done going 10-7, going
• 9:44
  to the wild card and getting knocked out.
• 9:47
  And like, they honestly couldn't do it again.
• 9:49
  That's. If that's your plan, Pickens is
• 9:52
  due for like this was his last year in his rookie contract.
• 9:54
  I know that was a big focal point in this trade.
• 9:57
  So now you get him out of here. So we even if you pay DKDK can
• 10:02
  go off whatever you got him on the contract.
• 10:05
  You just don't even got to worry about you know, George Pickens
• 10:08
  goes off maybe helps you win too many games and you're not like
• 10:11
  the spot you want to be. Plus you got this decision
• 10:14
  having to pay him looming think you take that yeah, it'll be
• 10:18
  quick and you're just you're the better spot there.
• 10:25
  So interesting. Interesting to see.
• 10:28
  Yeah, this might be this might be the the Steelers, they're
• 10:35
  waving the yellow towel. They're put they're taking that
• 10:38
  down and waving the white flag now.
• 10:41
  Yeah, it, it definitely feels like it.
• 10:44
  You're getting rid of your guy. It's it.
• 10:46
  They also lost one of their running backs as well.
• 10:50
  Yeah, no, she's gone. There they lost.
• 10:52
  Now welcome in everyone. That's just tough.
• 10:57
  Well. From.
• 10:58
  The from the. Spring League UFO week 6 is in
• 11:04
  the books. Not too many competitive
• 11:07
  matchups this week. There was a definitely some huge
• 11:09
  blow out your Panthers. We only had.
• 11:12
  There's. One close game.
• 11:15
  Memphis and Houston went down to the water.
• 11:18
  We'll get to that. But first, man, we got a so a
• 11:23
  rough game to to watch, especially if you're a Battle
• 11:25
  Hawk fan on Friday and we won this game. 12:00 to. 6.
• 11:31
  I do. I did not like watching Max
• 11:33
  Duncan play football. This was This was the offensive
• 11:37
  play calling, doing everything to limit the damage this guy
• 11:40
  could do while our defense carried. 4 turnovers forced in
• 11:49
  this game. 5 sacks. 5 1/2 sacks really.
• 11:53
  So I almost call it 6 basically. Yeah.
• 11:57
  Just a total domination by the defense.
• 12:01
  The the total yardage for the Arlington was wasn't really that
• 12:09
  bad either, but they just could yeah, drives weren't getting
• 12:14
  finished and his defense, especially coming up clutch
• 12:18
  forcing a a late fumble there in the game to to seal it was a.
• 12:23
  They posted the game with a missed field goal.
• 12:26
  Yeah, massive carry job by the defense, some special teams
• 12:30
  breakdowns there by Arlington as well.
• 12:34
  Then then get on to the board until the end of the end of the
• 12:37
  third, very beginning of the 4th.
• 12:40
  Yeah, these this. Will not.
• 12:43
  And then double forced fumbles on their next two possessions
• 12:46
  for the Battle Hawks to seal it up.
• 12:48
  Yeah, this possession chart's so ugly.
• 12:51
  The missed field goal fumble, 3 punts pick, and then they
• 12:57
  finally get 2 field goals and then it's just back-to-back
• 13:00
  fumbles in the last 8 minutes of the game pretty much.
• 13:05
  That's just ugly, I think. Yeah, really.
• 13:09
  Also another master class performance by Sterling
• 13:12
  Hofricher, the putter of the Saint Louis Battle Hawks.
• 13:16
  This guy, 5 punts, 236 yards, an average of 47.2 in a long 57.
• 13:23
  Did a great job in that. There we go, Battle man.
• 13:27
  And Blankenship, dude, look at that. 2 for two.
• 13:31
  Yeah, he's been he's been pretty locked down.
• 13:33
  So talking about Max Duncan, right?
• 13:36
  Guy played the entire game, goes 7 for 19 for 93 yards and a
• 13:42
  touchdown. He.
• 13:43
  Didn't turn it over but that percentage is disgusting. 4-9
• 13:49
  yards on the ground, excuse me, on the ground on 10 attempts.
• 13:55
  I don't know, like this. They were really telling him to
• 13:59
  just make sure that not turn the ball over without dominant the
• 14:03
  defense had been Hakeem Butler only one catch for 30 yards in
• 14:07
  the touchdown. This guy like a.
• 14:10
  Bit him a quarterback. A real quarterback back there,
• 14:14
  Butler probably has like 7 catches, $1.53 touchdown,
• 14:18
  something like that. The amount of times I saw this
• 14:21
  guy just absolutely he he gets to step on the defender or he's
• 14:25
  just, you know, up the sideline and like D BS got no help.
• 14:30
  He's like he's cooked. Butler's 6/6.
• 14:32
  He has an 83 inch wingspan and Duggan is putting these balls in
• 14:39
  the only spot the defender can make a play on it.
• 14:42
  I mean, you got a guy with this much of A size advantage on a
• 14:46
  one-on-one match up and you can only get him one pass.
• 14:50
  He was getting like for him, if he's got a one-on-one in any DB,
• 14:55
  he's pretty much open. That's.
• 14:58
  And you're saying something that's right here is 1 is 1
• 15:00
  catch. Was a 30 yard touchdown the only
• 15:04
  touchdown score in the game? It was in the second quarter.
• 15:07
  Absolutely, Moss. So hey, I'll I'll I'll pump the
• 15:13
  brakes on the dug in hate train and, you know, give some props
• 15:17
  to some of the guys that made some huge plays and this one
• 15:22
  that Peter. Took my.
• 15:23
  Carries, you know finally that guy coming alive in a pass rush
• 15:27
  2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles and he ended up recovering the
• 15:32
  game-winning forced fumble as well.
• 15:36
  Mike Reese or Mike Rose with 7 tackles, same with Will Harvey.
• 15:44
  Guys are all over the field. All these TFLS as well.
• 15:49
  It was a real another fall. Thank you for that.
• 15:56
  Yeah. Really a great game out of them.
• 16:00
  They yeah, they shut down pretty good offense.
• 16:08
  You know a team that has an amazing quarterback though HG.
• 16:11
  What's that? That's the Michigan Panthers,
• 16:13
  man. This guy, this freaking guy,
• 16:19
  man, Bryce Perkins. I could watch this dude play
• 16:23
  football all day long. The way.
• 16:26
  The way this guy runs, this kind of way he carries himself on the
• 16:30
  field is like. He's.
• 16:32
  Got this guy's dope. Did he have while?
• 16:37
  We're in the shoulder. He like was he's throwing the
• 16:39
  fenders off of him. He did not care.
• 16:43
  Yeah, he was. He was pretty dominant.
• 16:46
  Only, you know, 13 of 18188, two, two touchdowns.
• 16:50
  No, on the ground, 9 carries, 76 yards in the touchdown.
• 16:54
  This guy was a force to be reckoned with.
• 17:00
  Toa Toa, 19 carries, 94 yards and a touchdown.
• 17:04
  This guy, he, he kind of came out of nowhere on the Panthers.
• 17:07
  I mean, the running game hadn't really taken off this season.
• 17:10
  They go. Is that our guy?
• 17:12
  That's sharp. Man is that.
• 17:14
  A guy third like third string, fourth string back something
• 17:17
  like that. You just got to take some dudes
• 17:19
  out the dog pound it was a scheme and let him freaking go
• 17:24
  get him off the freaking Nate. McCreary also with a a solid 44
• 17:29
  yards on the touchdown on this one. 213 on the ground. 3
• 17:33
  touchdowns for the Panthers. Dog walked Michigan 38 to 14.
• 17:38
  This is the game we needed after our two losses because we played
• 17:43
  first. It was the first.
• 17:45
  It was the Stallions. We should have beat the
• 17:49
  Stallions then our, you know, the game against Saint Louis
• 17:53
  that was much closer, you know, like that one could have won.
• 17:56
  Either went either way, but we still needed that.
• 17:59
  This is a big win right here. Get us back up in the rankings
• 18:02
  at least. Like top three?
• 18:04
  You handed the Battle Hawks some some good opportunities to win
• 18:07
  there because yeah, how we how we were able to score.
• 18:10
  Was it 32 with Max Duggan as our quarterback?
• 18:16
  Mind blowing. Our defense locked back in.
• 18:19
  We, we didn't need Samson Nukua out there slapping people.
• 18:23
  We needed Kai Nukua out there getting 4 tackles.
• 18:27
  It was really Frank Guendos are getting carry 11 tackles, the
• 18:33
  tackle for loss. I mean, we really weren't doing
• 18:36
  anything like in the past game. We got 26 pass break UPS.
• 18:42
  That's all we really needed. No, no turnovers really forced.
• 18:46
  We're just sending them off the field.
• 18:49
  It was it was at MBRH or. NIGHDMA or you have just reached
• 18:53
  level 2. That's rock and.
• 18:55
  Recon 22. Well, up to level.
• 18:58
  Two, you know, let's go, guys. What was huge ball control in
• 19:01
  the second-half. You look at these drives, 9
• 19:04
  plays, 63 yards, punch it in the Oh yeah, 10 plays, 82 yards,
• 19:09
  punch it in the end zone. Yeah, wait.
• 19:11
  Getting the ball with 10 minutes left in the 4th going on a nine
• 19:14
  play, 77 yard drive, take a minute or 5 minutes and 40
• 19:19
  seconds off the clock, punch that ball in the end zone.
• 19:21
  So we do. 9 plays and only 6 minutes pretty much is kind of
• 19:26
  crazy. That feels like it should have
• 19:28
  been a lot longer of a possession, but we drained out
• 19:31
  the last. Yeah, they just held.
• 19:33
  The ball and they just wore down this defense and they punched it
• 19:38
  in. They were super they they just
• 19:41
  finished drives. They were super consistent to
• 19:43
  start the game, even where I didn't even that.
• 19:46
  That was probably the best drive of the day and not really set
• 19:48
  the tone for what they were looking to do. 11 plays, 95
• 19:52
  yards, 5 minutes, 48 seconds. Pose a wheel air.
• 19:57
  Yeah. And you have the.
• 20:00
  Command or the defenders like wrong DC team there defenders
• 20:08
  you know had a had a quick strike there on the 3rd and they
• 20:11
  they didn't answer that long drive with a long drive
• 20:14
  touchdown of their own and the sides after that clamped up
• 20:18
  pretty much besides that play where they they hit a hit a deep
• 20:22
  shot got a touchdown there you were say you were just giving a
• 20:26
  frank into his praise right for the 11 tackles.
• 20:29
  This guy was not a dude I I had really on my radar for this
• 20:33
  Panthers defense. But I think we can.
• 20:35
  We got he's just always been up there as a guy that gets to the
• 20:37
  ball, knows for the football and he's always.
• 20:41
  Up there in the leading tacklers, you know, no
• 20:44
  interceptions, not the force fumbles.
• 20:47
  But he's going to be there. He's going to be there another.
• 20:50
  Hilarious stat line for Jordan Te'amu.
• 20:53
  So yeah, like 259, two touchdowns.
• 20:56
  Not bad. Bro, it's 1936.
• 20:58
  I mean, this man is he's just chucking the ball and hoping for
• 21:04
  the best. Like he's not turning it over.
• 21:07
  Just wildly inaccurate sometimes I think I feel.
• 21:11
  Like, he could be really, really good in this league though, if
• 21:15
  they kind of can figure that out.
• 21:16
  I mean one. Of the more accurate.
• 21:19
  I feel like he's Steven 8 ball in the.
• 21:21
  League, but the intermediate to short passing is a just an
• 21:26
  absolute cluster of like what you're going to get because it's
• 21:30
  not like these are like like all these completions aren't just
• 21:33
  like all heavily contested throws or you know, like deep
• 21:37
  shots. You just weren't able to
• 21:38
  connect. It's just like missing like I'm
• 21:40
  like, what should you feel like? It should be?
• 21:41
  Simple mechanical stuff? Yeah, simple.
• 21:43
  Stuff. Simple stuff.
• 21:46
  And it hasn't. It didn't.
• 21:46
  Really cost them up until this point, but then you take away a
• 21:50
  not like a non existent Russian game and this one and that
• 21:53
  really contributed to a lot of these short 3 1/2 drives that
• 21:57
  they had there and then that's how the.
• 21:59
  Panthers burn you. That's how the Panthers burn you
• 22:01
  right there. I said like we got a.
• 22:03
  Serious talk though, is like 5-7 Chris Rowland the best wide
• 22:07
  receiver in the UFL? Dude, this.
• 22:10
  Like he. I was like, is he not this guy's
• 22:14
  demon? Dude, insistently.
• 22:15
  Putting up like solid stats. He doesn't disappear, you know,
• 22:20
  or like you know every game like even if it like the stats aren't
• 22:23
  gaudy like there were this week, he you can feel like he had a a
• 22:28
  a really big impact on the game catching and running the
• 22:31
  football this week. It was definitely catching the
• 22:33
  nine. He was most of their their pass
• 22:36
  attack anyways. His nine receptions Buck 44 and
• 22:39
  a touchdown got that long won the 65 yard there.
• 22:43
  He's a pretty. Good player, man, He's a pretty
• 22:46
  good player. For 5/7.
• 22:48
  You're like just completely slown out of the water by him.
• 22:53
  One of the things I love I just like about the UFL is like
• 22:56
  you're just we're getting some like fun stories like that, like
• 22:58
  do the the five sets not. And you've got an.
• 23:02
  Argument that he's the best receiver in the UFL.
• 23:05
  Like why not? It'll it just adds to the
• 23:07
  excitement of the spring league while we all wait for the NFL.
• 23:11
  It gives you something to watch. Well, I say.
• 23:13
  We'll save the best for last and we'll we'll skip over Memphis
• 23:17
  Houston for right now and just quickly give some notes on what
• 23:22
  was a a trouncing here by the Birmingham Stallions.
• 23:27
  Safe to say, LeBron, a season is effectively over one in five.
• 23:31
  You're so far out of it and you're there has been little to
• 23:38
  nothing to really feel confident about here.
• 23:43
  I don't. There's just, there's just not
• 23:46
  enough Team 24. Rushy yards 20. 4.
• 23:52
  Abysmal. And they just got gashed giving
• 23:56
  up 313 on the what, Wade Phillips.
• 24:00
  It might finally be time to hang up the headset, my guy.
• 24:03
  It's always that's. What I was wondering, I'm like,
• 24:07
  they must have fired Wade Phillips.
• 24:08
  I I got a. Special spot in my heart for
• 24:10
  Wade Phillips. You know the the defensive
• 24:13
  coordinator during the Super Bowl 50 run.
• 24:16
  Elite elite defensive coordinator, but it's was never
• 24:22
  really a great head coach in the NFL was the decent good, pretty
• 24:26
  good coach in the UFO. This year's just been bad.
• 24:29
  The the glaring thing to me that really jumped out in this game
• 24:33
  was O of 10 on 3rd down. I mean you could not convert the
• 24:37
  third down to save their life. I think you had 24 rushing
• 24:43
  yards. There's no way you're getting a
• 24:45
  third game. You're not.
• 24:46
  Getting any you're not picking up. 30 on one game you're.
• 24:50
  You know, behind the sticks pretty much perpetually.
• 24:54
  And that's what it really felt like here.
• 24:57
  It looked promised punts. In a row before they even got a
• 25:00
  field goal, it looked. Promising 7 play, 64 yard drive
• 25:04
  to open the game up. Getting the field goal range.
• 25:07
  You're like, we'll take that on the road.
• 25:08
  Good start. Shank it and it just it just
• 25:13
  went all off the rails after that really five, you know, like
• 25:17
  you said, five straight punts. They got a field goal going in
• 25:20
  the half, so you can feel. Decent about.
• 25:24
  That and then Cooler 7. 120.619627 We want to hear from
• 25:31
  you. You look at that that opening
• 25:34
  drive besides that, they're the next longest drive in terms of
• 25:38
  plays was 5 their their field goal drive that they got just
• 25:43
  before half time, couple of chunk plays.
• 25:45
  Three of those got them 66 total yards got them in the field goal
• 25:48
  range and just after like they they just next their.
• 25:53
  Next drive after that it looks like they 4.
• 25:56
  Yards. In the getting in the.
• 25:57
  Field goal range and then missing that kick just
• 25:59
  demoralized the whole team and they just spun out after that
• 26:05
  like I'm starting to side. Wasn't like they did anything
• 26:08
  mind blowing or. Crazy.
• 26:11
  Just, you know, a. Couple of really good long
• 26:13
  drives to punch in touchdowns couple 8 play drives and 11 play
• 26:18
  drive so just you know ball control.
• 26:22
  They they have a couple of stinkers there though, too.
• 26:25
  After their first touchdown fumble, few punt, 3 and outs.
• 26:29
  Yeah, they they don't really look.
• 26:32
  That good either. They just kind of played the
• 26:33
  worst team, but they didn't. Have to do a whole lot to really
• 26:37
  beat the Brahmas. Besides, you know, just control
• 26:43
  the football and play a little. Defense.
• 26:47
  Yeah, play a little. Defense.
• 26:49
  It said much, it really did You really feel like playing?
• 26:53
  Yeah. Felt like Brahmins shot there
• 26:57
  and do whatever. They just rolled.
• 26:59
  Over and this one. So Panthers are still.
• 27:05
  On Stallions are still on fraud Watch for me here I I think.
• 27:10
  So. This is the biggest convincing.
• 27:13
  Win for me was that, that game against the Panthers, you know
• 27:18
  where that was, That was the only.
• 27:20
  Good team they played so far. And besides that, they a lot of,
• 27:27
  not a lot of their wins have been very convincing for me, no.
• 27:30
  But we're. Going to get to the.
• 27:31
  Best game of the week. This was a a down to the wire
• 27:34
  game where the showboats won the I play.
• 27:37
  In. Pretty well dropped it in the
• 27:41
  we're just weren't quite able to come back in the fourth quarter.
• 27:45
  They were down. 21 to 14 they got the touchdown.
• 27:53
  They weren't able to get the one point try though and the game
• 27:58
  ended. Very unfortunate and one in five
• 28:05
  here for the the showboats. Oh, actually, but it was 2 field
• 28:10
  goals in the Yeah they. Couldn't get they couldn't get
• 28:13
  far. They couldn't get close enough.
• 28:16
  Dude, that's right, it was. 2 field goals where they just
• 28:18
  crawled like 10, like 2 long drives where they was just it
• 28:24
  was a snail's crawl, like 10 plays for both 38 yards.
• 28:28
  Yeah, go like a. Grand total of 63 yards those
• 28:31
  two drives, yeah, that's. 20 plays in nearly 10 minutes of
• 28:37
  the second-half. Jesus.
• 28:41
  I mean, they're not really playing to all that bad though.
• 28:45
  I mean, for one in five, you're better than the Brahmas.
• 28:49
  That just definitely showed some fight this year.
• 28:52
  It's just they could never really find a way to close it
• 28:54
  out. That was just too that was too
• 28:58
  bad. They like a team after a week
• 29:02
  when I was feeling optimistic about them maybe shaking some
• 29:05
  things up. But again, at one in five, you
• 29:07
  just kind of have to feel seasons about over.
• 29:12
  They want the Dresser win here in this one and he's been a lot
• 29:16
  more consistent. Yeah, he was.
• 29:18
  He's been a lot more consistent in the past two weeks over EJ
• 29:21
  Perry. A touchdown interception, so not
• 29:25
  not the best ball security dresser.
• 29:28
  Went much better than EJ. Perry, yeah, he's moving the
• 29:32
  ball at least. And yeah, again, the the
• 29:36
  Roughnecks just capitalize. They did a good job capitalizing
• 29:40
  off of turnovers, taking advantage of short fields,
• 29:44
  things like that. And they just didn't commit any
• 29:48
  really costly turnovers that hurt their team in the end.
• 29:56
  That was they got out gains. They were worse on 3rd down, had
• 30:03
  less time of possession, less total plays.
• 30:06
  They just didn't make the mistakes.
• 30:08
  You know, they they were, they pretty much optimized the what
• 30:14
  they did with the football. Is how I would put.
• 30:17
  That you know. And there was it.
• 30:20
  Was not to get them this way. They're three and three, so
• 30:23
  they're hanging around in the in the hunt there for the playoffs.
• 30:28
  Obviously the top two teams on each.
• 30:31
  Division get. In and play each other before
• 30:34
  the the winners of those 2GO play for the championship.
• 30:37
  We'll give a a quick standings update before we had the break
• 30:41
  here, then let's hit it. Hey man, so we'll.
• 30:44
  Start in the XFL conference Super.
• 30:47
  Tight race. Here, between the Defenders and
• 30:49
  Battle Hawks teams both four and two, I figured this will.
• 30:54
  Put Saint Louis above after the the defenders lost because it
• 30:59
  wouldn't it be like a tiebreaker the defenders?
• 31:02
  Do still hold the head to head Renegades were, you know,
• 31:08
  they're still breathing down both of those teams.
• 31:10
  Next, they're at 3:00 and 3:00. So lot no sleep on them.
• 31:15
  I'd say. Yeah, count the Brahmins out,
• 31:17
  but no telling who the the the other two teams that are going
• 31:23
  to come out of this conference are going to be at it's.
• 31:26
  It's really good. It's.
• 31:27
  Probably going to come down to the end of the season here and
• 31:30
  you go to the USFL Conference, same story, I'd say.
• 31:35
  Let's count. We could probably count the
• 31:36
  showboats out, but you got Birmingham and Michigan both
• 31:39
  sitting at 4:00 and 2:00. But the Roughnecks were down but
• 31:45
  not out. And they kind of clawed their
• 31:47
  way back into the the playoff race here after I, I was about
• 31:55
  ready to say they were dead in the water.
• 31:58
  Yeah, Rose after their the rocky start to the season.
• 32:03
  But they've won a couple straight now.
• 32:04
  They're three and three and really just a game out.
• 32:07
  So again, no telling who the other two teams are that they're
• 32:10
  going to come out of this USFL concert conference.
• 32:15
  I'm hoping that's the. Panthers though, man, Yep.
• 32:19
  I don't, I, I do think right now like you're look, looking at the
• 32:23
  four and two teams, I would still say are the favorites.
• 32:27
  I'm a little more the Renegades I think are a little more
• 32:29
  threatening than the than. The Roughnecks.
• 32:33
  Renegades. Really have a lot more depth and
• 32:36
  firepower on that team. I think so.
• 32:39
  Too roughnecks they got. A lot of grit, a lot of heart.
• 32:42
  But you know that sometimes the talent disparity can't can't be
• 32:47
  overcome. So Houston.
• 32:50
  On A2 game streak, let's see who.
• 32:53
  Let's see what the week 7 matchups are real quick as well.
• 32:57
  We got DC going to San Antonio, probably the free.
• 33:01
  One there for the. Michigan Panthers are headed to
• 33:05
  Arlington. I'll be I'll.
• 33:08
  Be very solid game. Houston has a big big USFL
• 33:14
  Conference matchup against Birmingham AL and Birmingham.
• 33:20
  So that could be some big shake UPS if they could win there.
• 33:24
  Saint Louis that. Means a lot.
• 33:27
  Has to play. The got kind of the crappy end
• 33:31
  of the stick on playing the teams that are one and five.
• 33:34
  He got the better one and five team to go against this week in
• 33:38
  Memphis. Battlehawks are going to play
• 33:41
  the showboats. Will Manny.
• 33:42
  Wilkins be good to go. I'm Fingers.
• 33:45
  Crossed man. Not really super.
• 33:47
  Sure. On that.
• 33:49
  It's can you're like, how are we going to be able to scheme
• 33:52
  around Max Duggan or will he finally like unlock something
• 33:57
  now he's got a couple of games under his belt and start playing
• 34:00
  a little bit better? Like I don't want to be I I'm
• 34:02
  being hard on the guy. But it's, you know, he, he
• 34:05
  hadn't really, he hasn't really played any meaningful football
• 34:08
  since that. 2021. Now that that title run with
• 34:13
  TCU, is that 2022 21 or 20? 2 I believe yeah, when they took
• 34:18
  the horn. Frogs to the national
• 34:20
  championship or great season before they got absolutely dog
• 34:25
  walked and Molly walked by Florida, Irvine, Georgia.
• 34:28
  Yeah, it was that. Was ugly.
• 34:31
  They really couldn't do. Anything.
• 34:33
  It's like just a completely outclassed team.
• 34:36
  It happens in all. Sports, you just, some games are
• 34:40
  just just don't go your way. You just don't play your best
• 34:43
  game. Fortunately, that happens in the
• 34:45
  postseason, sometimes more. Often than not, and it's part
• 34:49
  of. Sports.
• 34:50
  All right, that's going to do it for our first segment here, UFO
• 34:54
  Recap. It's a super fun competitive
• 34:56
  league. We're enjoying it so far.
• 34:58
  Definitely check it out. If you haven't, I recommend
• 35:00
  enjoying the Battle. Hawks Nation got some lit fans
• 35:03
  over here. Panthers fans are pretty cool
• 35:05
  too though. When we come back, going to have
• 35:08
  a a recap and our closing thoughts of round one of the NBA
• 35:12
  playoffs and then we're going to dive into these Week 2 Round 2
• 35:15
  matchups here on Till the Final Whistle on Military Broadcast
• 35:19

  You are looking live until the final whistle.
• 39:46
  A Sheen caveman back in the house.
• 39:49
  Before we get into our NBA playoff coverage, some more
• 39:53
  breaking news from the NFL Drag wars are releasing Gabe Davis.
• 39:59
  OH. Interesting part way with them.
• 40:02
  And. Maybe the Steelers go after GET.
• 40:07
  Themselves. Another receiver now wide.
• 40:10
  Receiver, that this you gave Davis.
• 40:14
  He just never was the. Same after that, the 2022
• 40:18
  divisional round matchup against Buffalo, So 20, twenty.
• 40:24
  Yeah, that was 2022. Just was never the same after
• 40:27
  that, man. Hello, Amber.
• 40:30
  Goes towards. We'll see what goes for the.
• 40:35
  Like, it's getting older up there.
• 40:37
  Like you got like guys like Keenan Allen, Mari Cooper are
• 40:40
  still free agents. Nobody's signed them.
• 40:42
  It's like, you know, be tough to find the.
• 40:45
  Spot maybe mid season. Honestly, if you really think
• 40:49
  about it, try to. Jump on and go bring Hey H.
• 40:54
  So. Or you know if.
• 40:55
  Anyone needs somebody. Kind of like how the Saints had
• 40:58
  to sign MVS, like if anyone just gets that down in the dumps and
• 41:02
  injury, like, you know, Gabe Davis still be out there.
• 41:06
  Like somebody to sign, they'll still be out there.
• 41:11
  Or they can come in stat prove he's still got some some good
• 41:15
  hoops. Yeah, he's still got.
• 41:16
  Still got some left in. The.
• 41:18
  Left in the cleats talking about.
• 41:20
  Hoops because NBA play offs are here.
• 41:24
  It's time, man. It's time we're in the round. 2
• 41:29
  They've been fantastic. Last Monday we had two
• 41:34
  incredible games. A buzzer beater by the R Denver
• 41:39
  Nuggets. Knicks overcoming a 20 point
• 41:42
  deficit steal game one on the road.
• 41:45
  They pretty much had. A game winner too.
• 41:48
  Mikael Bridges in the corner, just knocking them down.
• 41:51
  It was not his game offensively in that one.
• 41:54
  We'll get to it later, but he was just.
• 41:57
  I'll talk about the. Knicks and just how they close
• 42:01
  out this series here against the Pistons.
• 42:05
  This was the best series of the first round for the East at
• 42:08
  least. Super good and like just real a
• 42:14
  real gritty competitive series. The Knicks obviously the more
• 42:18
  experienced team and I think that showed at some points here
• 42:23
  and especially here in this close out game, their whole
• 42:28
  bench unit or their whole starting unit.
• 42:30
  Their bench unit was non existent, but their whole
• 42:32
  starting unit really clutched up.
• 42:34
  Brunson scored 40 points. He had 25 out of Bridges, 22 out
• 42:39
  of Ananovi. Ananovi's offense has, I think
• 42:42
  it's really picked up the past couple games has been a bit of
• 42:45
  an X. He's on it.
• 42:47
  He brings a lot for. You on the defensive side.
• 42:49
  He gets going as a score, too. They've been tough to stop.
• 42:53
  They've been really tough to stop He already.
• 42:55
  Got a very good shot. He they give him opportunities
• 43:00
  to isolate sometimes and he can really, he can really score.
• 43:03
  He can fill it up that way he can.
• 43:06
  Cat only 10 points, but you know, gets 15 boards.
• 43:10
  Josh Hart only 13 points, but he pulls down 10 boards as well.
• 43:13
  So those guys making an impact off the glass on the opposite
• 43:18
  other ways on the floor. Cat also pick up a couple of
• 43:21
  blocks. We've got OG with the 22 also
• 43:24
  three blocks. So just has two way presence and
• 43:28
  this series has been such a huge help.
• 43:32
  Was a huge help. For New York here, but what's
• 43:38
  I'll get your thoughts first to your partner on the Pistons,
• 43:41
  what did you like that you saw from this team?
• 43:43
  Because first of all, we got to congratulate them.
• 43:46
  Incredible season, the turn around for being the worst team
• 43:51
  in basketball record wise. Come in a six seed.
• 43:56
  Yeah, not even just a play in team, but like a a bona fide
• 43:59
  playoff team that didn't have to even go through the tournament.
• 44:03
  You know a. Tough team to.
• 44:05
  Six games. It was a.
• 44:07
  Great. It was a great season from him
• 44:09
  and like a lot of their their young younger players, I feel
• 44:13
  like it's kind of the reason that they did lose a few of
• 44:17
  their games, but it was just a lot of huge mistakes that they
• 44:20
  made late. Like to to lose this one.
• 44:24
  He gave up the game-winning shot on a turnover on a pass that
• 44:28
  slips through Malik Beasley's hand.
• 44:31
  It's like before this game and after he was calling himself
• 44:36
  best shooter in the world that he should take that shot.
• 44:40
  It's like the end of the game there, you got it.
• 44:42
  You don't want to catch it. Yeah, I got to.
• 44:44
  Catch the ball first, that was that was more that was
• 44:47
  Backbreaker and like. The Pistons another thing as
• 44:51
  well. Sorry to cut you off.
• 44:53
  Yeah, you're good. There's a lot of.
• 44:55
  Narrative at the the refs, it was everybody versus the
• 44:59
  Pistons, but I feel like after like the first two games, it
• 45:03
  really was. The officiating.
• 45:07
  Crew definitely allowed the Pistons to play pretty physical
• 45:11
  brand of basketball and that's why they were in most of the
• 45:13
  games. That's why it even went to six
• 45:16
  in the first place. Honestly, they were able to play
• 45:20
  their brand like they played physical.
• 45:22
  Like the refs let them bring physicality to like the entire
• 45:26
  game. So I feel like they like nobody
• 45:29
  was really getting screwed by the refs.
• 45:31
  It was just. I don't think so.
• 45:32
  Aside from that, the the foul call in game four, that was
• 45:37
  definitely a bad call there. That was a bad.
• 45:40
  Call, I feel like from then on they got robbed there.
• 45:45
  Leading. Up till then, I feel like they
• 45:46
  could have been up that series 3 to 2 before the game 4 ending
• 45:55
  because they lost game one by choking a huge lead in the
• 46:00
  fourth quarter and game two another one that they let's just
• 46:04
  let slip from him where they had a kind of a lead late.
• 46:07
  It was back and forth game and they just fell off last few
• 46:11
  minutes. I'll.
• 46:13
  Say salute to everyone. Final thoughts here.
• 46:16
  For the the Pistons, I don't see them really needing to to make a
• 46:22
  a ton of changes. I think if you can just keep
• 46:25
  what you got. And.
• 46:28
  If they can. Stay healthy, get some more, you
• 46:31
  know, just get some more experience under them.
• 46:35
  That was I think what really cost them is just they they,
• 46:39
  they lost some composure and you can just tell who the
• 46:43
  inexperienced team was. You know, New York's been doing
• 46:45
  that like ever since Brunson got here.
• 46:48
  They've been going to the to the playoffs and like they, they've
• 46:52
  got finals aspirations. And it was like a, you know, a
• 46:56
  team that was they were happy they made it versus A-Team that
• 47:01
  is is hungry for a championship saw in game.
• 47:05
  One of that Boston series in Round 2.
• 47:08
  They now lead 1 to 0. But what other series in the
• 47:12
  East they they all pretty much closed up pretty handily.
• 47:18
  They were all pretty much. Closed when we wrapped up the
• 47:21
  show last week. I'd say like the heat anti J
• 47:24
  blade. You have just reached level 20.
• 47:28
  It's level. Two, I'd say the Heat just be
• 47:31
  glad you made it to the postseason.
• 47:33
  I don't know if that's going to happen again for a while.
• 47:35
  Seriously though. Our team looks like they're.
• 47:37
  Falling apart, obviously the Bucks question mark like is this
• 47:41
  kind of the end of the the Giannis experiment and
• 47:45
  everything Like it seems like it's all it's all kind of coming
• 47:49
  to an end there in Milwaukee. The magic I think we discussed
• 47:53
  like they just need the upgrades in the front court.
• 47:56
  They need a real clean responsibilities and just let
• 48:02
  others do a little more running, running and slashing in the hoop
• 48:05
  and using this off of the system A.
• 48:08
  Facilitator is really what their land of magic are like craving
• 48:13
  right now. That's what their offseason
• 48:15
  should be focused on the. Grizzlies had to come.
• 48:19
  We talked about that late season collapse firing your coach for.
• 48:23
  No reason I need to tell you about it or.
• 48:26
  Some more experienced players in there thought they were.
• 48:30
  They were solid defensively. It's just, you know, I don't
• 48:35
  know, they could stay healthy. Watching them play in.
• 48:38
  The postseason little unsure about how the Zack Edie
• 48:42
  experiments going to go there that I feel for them.
• 48:46
  Yeah, then Jaren. Jackson junior Great defensive
• 48:50
  player, but what he can bring to you offensively in the
• 48:54
  postseason, he was he was really good offensively the regular
• 48:58
  season, but significant drop there.
• 49:02
  He just didn't want to I I still won't get over the game where he
• 49:06
  had two rebounds. That was, yeah, that's.
• 49:10
  That's insane dude how does that even happen their.
• 49:14
  Elimination really showed they just needed a center was big in
• 49:20
  this one. I mean, go bear, close them out
• 49:22
  by just like having a legacy gained 27 points, 24 boards and
• 49:29
  yeah, like he was in there like basically hitting dagger shots
• 49:32
  and I don't even know who was out there on the floor.
• 49:36
  It was such a forgettable performance from the five man
• 49:40
  for the Lakers. Like I don't even remember who
• 49:42
  it was. Then you have the Rockets, which
• 49:48
  the series went exactly how I was expecting, defensive nitty
• 49:53
  gritty, but the Warriors just have a better offense that it
• 49:59
  wasn't what? I wanted to see though that's
• 50:01
  going to be able to. Overcome, yeah, Rockets are
• 50:03
  another team where it's like they don't have to make too many
• 50:06
  changes, but I also think they might be the favourites right
• 50:11
  now for Jones, 'cause I think they've got the depth, draft,
• 50:14
  draft capital on everything to go make a big splash move.
• 50:18
  I would also build that front. Court offense that they were
• 50:21
  really missing that like half court.
• 50:24
  Offense. Bro that like.
• 50:26
  People were saying he he's rich and still robbing people because
• 50:30
  he was pretty much a no show for he had the 38.
• 50:36
  Point game, but the next three from there I'm pretty sure he
• 50:40
  had what, 79 and 11? James, 63.
• 50:43
  Games he was pretty much a no show by for how much he's
• 50:46
  getting paid. 8 Eight points, 4 rebounds.
• 50:50
  Yeah, eight points. In this this was.
• 50:53
  The Aman Thompson game he that should be.
• 50:56
  The Rockets focus. Honestly, I feel like they
• 50:59
  shouldn't even get Giannis 'cause you got a guy he's not
• 51:03
  even really in his prime game Giannis with.
• 51:05
  That with that team, man I. I feel like that their focus
• 51:09
  though if they lose Aman Thompson in the offseason and
• 51:12
  not Jaylen Green, I think they made a mistake.
• 51:15
  Even if they get Giannis, I think they he's got a few more
• 51:18
  years on his. Rookie deal Sir 'cause he was
• 51:21
  just two years ago so they he's a high pick so they might be all
• 51:25
  right there I. I think that should be Amin
• 51:28
  Thompson is who they bank their future on.
• 51:32
  He he was his. Reads.
• 51:34
  Are better he's he doesn't turn the ball over as sloppy like
• 51:38
  when he actually gets going, he gets gone.
• 51:41
  Jalen Green feels just way too flashy and you got to get that
• 51:46
  all, man. Has just better mechanical
• 51:49
  skills. He doesn't rely on his
• 51:50
  athleticism as much. He's still off, bloody, but he's
• 51:53
  just smarter. He's also just very.
• 51:55
  Mechanical via very smart with how he plays the game.
• 51:58
  I don't know man like he he looked like the best player,
• 52:04
  especially here in Game 7. But there were yeah, there were
• 52:08
  times when my man Thompson looks like the best player for the
• 52:10
  Rockets out there on the court. He's even.
• 52:12
  Better than Sangoon. Yeah, Sangun.
• 52:15
  I think gave a a pretty good performance.
• 52:17
  He fought, though. He fought for him.
• 52:19
  He's when they really couldn't get anything going in that that
• 52:24
  first game, who who was really fighting for him.
• 52:28
  Sangun was the only one rallying for him in those first few
• 52:31
  matchups. Honestly, Sangun and Amin
• 52:34
  Thompson because Fred Van Vleet disappeared.
• 52:38
  I figured that would be the answer to them not having half
• 52:41
  court offense because he's more of their veteran guard but
• 52:45
  they're using him as like A2 over him.
• 52:48
  Yeah, potentially that could be the move to get.
• 52:53
  Giannis Reed Shepherd. Could come in, fill that role.
• 52:58
  I'll forget about Reed Shepherd. Man, that guy was dangerous.
• 53:01
  He's solid. And.
• 53:03
  He's pretty solid. Then the last of the.
• 53:05
  Round one matchups, Clippers kind of going out sad they got
• 53:10
  Nuggets, did all that. To win by. 19.
• 53:14
  Come on, what the heck the bench unit got?
• 53:17
  In there and it was like, oh crap, are they going to go put
• 53:20
  on a run broke? Kobe Brown got in the game for 8
• 53:23
  minutes and had more points than Norman Powell, James Harden,
• 53:28
  Zubach and Derrick Jones Junior and Nick Batum.
• 53:32
  Brown, 8 minutes. So I was significantly less than
• 53:37
  all of those guys and he scored more points.
• 53:40
  We did all. That all those beaten.
• 53:41
  By 19. In game seven though, yeah.
• 53:45
  Like. What happened to James Harden
• 53:46
  too? Game six?
• 53:48
  It's also an elimination game. He played amazing.
• 53:52
  This is just. Who he is, bro, he is a guy like
• 53:56
  the James that the game six game.
• 54:00
  Well, you know, fluke one off. It's a thing that doesn't happen
• 54:03
  too often every year, bro. We I people fall for the James
• 54:07
  Harden trap and they're like, you know, like, oh, he looks
• 54:11
  really good again, Like he's not going to, he's not going to burn
• 54:14
  us in the postseason. He's not going to burn us in the
• 54:16
  post and then he burns you in the postseason, man, I he's, I
• 54:21
  can't pay the game. 7 on just him though, like you're saying
• 54:24
  Zubak, yeah, I mean their whole team.
• 54:27
  Just they got outscored. By a guy in 8 minutes they got.
• 54:31
  Tired. The Nuggets didn't.
• 54:34
  That's really what this I think boils down to Kawhi team leading
• 54:39
  22 and that's not really are not really that Harden is gone next
• 54:46
  year. I agree with that.
• 54:48
  Probably the. Comment to that.
• 54:50
  In he's, I mean, he might retire, might go play a washed
• 54:57
  season on a bad team somewhere. He just even in his prime, he
• 55:02
  was not like, he just was not a guy that could elevate you to
• 55:05
  no. Championship.
• 55:07
  Level. Yeah, the Clippers.
• 55:10
  Put together. They were looking really good to
• 55:13
  close out the year, had a lot of things working and it all just
• 55:16
  fell apart when they needed it the most.
• 55:19
  Yeah, it was. Looking like they were going to
• 55:21
  win the series, like they're kind of looking a little bit
• 55:25
  favored. Koala and he had that one insane
• 55:29
  game. I mean, not like compared to
• 55:32
  what he did in that game versus the rest of the series.
• 55:35
  Very, very pedestrian. Oh, considering.
• 55:39
  It was in Game 2 also when he did that jumping in.
• 55:43
  To Round 2, where do we even start?
• 55:47
  Partner? I want to.
• 55:48
  Go to Timberwolves Warriors first.
• 55:51
  Honestly. All right.
• 55:52
  Because I thought, I thought Thunderbolts might have been the
• 55:56
  most painful thing of the night. I watched and then I I saw
• 56:01
  Anthony Edwards in game. One with the second round versus
• 56:05
  the Golden State Warriors, 9 of 22 still leading 23 points, but
• 56:11
  that's the. Reason you lose.
• 56:14
  It got better. You know, and he, he really
• 56:17
  stepped it up, took him until like 4 minutes I think was the,
• 56:22
  the time like 413 left in the fourth before he finally made
• 56:26
  the jump shot. It was a it was a big.
• 56:30
  Three and then Buddy Hill hit the silencer answered it on the
• 56:34
  other end back closing it out on the road in the second-half
• 56:41
  without Steph Curry. Dude, what?
• 56:45
  What did Jimmy Butler unlock? And this Warriors team
• 56:48
  defensively though, because they have just been like locking
• 56:52
  everybody down. the Rockets scored like 100 plus points on
• 56:58
  them. What twice held them?
• 57:01
  I think they held them under 100 3 three times.
• 57:07
  The the. Timberwolves only 88.
• 57:09
  Here it is. I mean, they have. 31 points in
• 57:14
  the first half. Like the Warriors are playing
• 57:16
  some serious freaking defense, dude.
• 57:19
  Yeah, Minnesota scores 11 points in the freaking second quarter.
• 57:24
  They they're getting smacked. Buddy healed, Buddy healed, bro.
• 57:29
  He just freaking took Steph Curry's powers where?
• 57:32
  Like it's Space Jam because their stats look like that
• 57:36
  should be the opposite of each other.
• 57:39
  Like Curry? Tweaked his knee, so obviously
• 57:41
  that's probably why he obviously his.
• 57:44
  Production was. Lower.
• 57:45
  Yeah, his stats. Fell a little flat but he only
• 57:48
  played 13. Minutes in a soda.
• 57:50
  Has been horrendous from three. I mean, it is at what point do
• 57:57
  as Chris Finch, do you just start like start benching guys
• 58:02
  that are taking too many threes because they're just chucking
• 58:05
  them at the rim and it nothing's going in and it's like guys get
• 58:09
  to the bat, get downhills in the basket.
• 58:12
  You know, such great athletes, such great colors, man, like
• 58:17
  you. Nasreed.
• 58:19
  He made over half the threes. He made three out of five right
• 58:23
  Warriors total. Why is Nasreed taking 7 threes
• 58:26
  in general Warriors? Aren't that big man like get get
• 58:31
  get after him in the paint, get inside.
• 58:33
  Like make him try to use some size and athleticism around the
• 58:38
  rim. They just didn't want to do that
• 58:40
  at all. 5 or 20. 9 Think about. The the the.
• 58:46
  Game against the Lakers, they ended up overcoming it, but they
• 58:50
  were like like, it was 7 of 40 from three.
• 58:55
  I was just like, what are we doing?
• 58:56
  Stop shooting threes. They just don't.
• 59:01
  They can't seem to get out of that box.
• 59:02
  Percent in this. Game for him.
• 59:06
  And you think? About it Like the The biggest
• 59:08
  big man, Kevon Looney is your biggest worry in the paint.
• 59:16
  Maybe Quentin Post has 6 minutes.
• 59:18
  Like they don't even need Quentin Post in.
• 59:21
  This one. Looney Tunes.
• 59:23
  Is your biggest worry in the post.
• 59:27
  Was just goofy at step. Under Score Sarge 1 you have
• 59:30
  just reach level 2. You're.
• 59:33
  Sending in the gifts, donations, reaching level.
• 59:37
  You guys are getting a ton. Of gifts.
• 59:38
  That's why a ton of gifts. Shout out everyone.
• 59:42
  Giving these gifts thanks to. Sergeant Step, DJ Blade and
• 59:48
  Amber, thank you. You guys are.
• 59:50
  Always. The real ones appreciate it.
• 59:52
  They really are. They're always.
• 59:53
  Here every week. Got it.
• 59:55
  And Amber doesn't. Even know I've been watching
• 59:57
  their show while I'm at work. I'll be playing some of the MBR
• 1:00:01
  shows in the kitchen. Sometimes they don't.
• 1:00:04
  People don't even know man I'll be watching y'all shows.
• 1:00:07
  I'm just working in the back without Curry.
• 1:00:10
  I don't think Golden State will have a hard time.
• 1:00:13
  Curry slightly pulled his hamstring.
• 1:00:17
  Slight hamstring. Pulled looks a lot better for
• 1:00:21
  the Warriors. Like you can.
• 1:00:24
  Come back from the hamstring pretty quick.
• 1:00:26
  You know, for the Rose. And whoever that was, that was a
• 1:00:30
  lot of. Roses who had beans like.
• 1:00:35
  No Curry? No problem Buddy Hield legacy
• 1:00:39
  series potentially coming up out there is 33 in Game 7 comes back
• 1:00:43
  with another 24 and this one five of eight.
• 1:00:47
  And like I said, he was he had like some silencers there late
• 1:00:51
  in the game where he wasn't even really I check out all the.
• 1:00:54
  Shows let's. Go yeah.
• 1:00:56
  Great shows here on NBR. There's just 8 new shows
• 1:01:00
  starting. Lots, lots of love here on
• 1:01:02
  Military Breakfast Radio. Yeah, I don't.
• 1:01:06
  Warriors. Probably.
• 1:01:09
  Looking like they're on their way to the the West finals, man
• 1:01:13
  Timberwolves just they can match with up up with them pretty well
• 1:01:18
  defensively. But God, they're offense this
• 1:01:21
  year, especially if they they get if they got to play it in
• 1:01:24
  1/2 court. Oh, I mean forget about it.
• 1:01:26
  They're they might average ADA this this whole series like it's
• 1:01:32
  bad. It is it's really bad.
• 1:01:35
  My show is. Tonight, yeah.
• 1:01:39
  That's Sergeant. Stav letting you guys know that
• 1:01:41
  his show is tonight. So every time, Sergeant, you
• 1:01:44
  guys are Rose, it plays the fart sound.
• 1:01:46
  That's why I'm over. That was pretty.
• 1:01:52
  Funny mid sentence. We got about 10 farts in a row.
• 1:01:57
  Thank you, fan. For all these roses, what's the
• 1:02:00
  most we got? Dude, we're.
• 1:02:02
  We're we're showering the roses there.
• 1:02:05
  We couldn't be more thankful for it.
• 1:02:07
  Over to the. Celtics, Knicks.
• 1:02:09
  Incredible game. Absolutely incredible game here.
• 1:02:16
  Steals. One on the road here and just a
• 1:02:22
  game where. Nobody can shoot the basketball,
• 1:02:25
  Yeah. No, it was a pretty bad shooting
• 1:02:27
  thing. From both teams.
• 1:02:29
  Outside, I mean, New York was 4045% from three.
• 1:02:32
  That was a big difference. Miles ahead of Boston.
• 1:02:38
  Boston taking 60 threes dude only making. 15 I mean, that is
• 1:02:42
  their team identity, but do you like Tatum, man?
• 1:02:46
  Can you just go to the basket like you are just so much you?
• 1:02:51
  You would just burn these? These these.
• 1:02:54
  Defenders that they got on you. He just wants to keep taking
• 1:02:57
  step back. Just like, dude, like stop.
• 1:03:00
  Just you. You're more athletic, you're
• 1:03:02
  faster, you're stronger at step. Under score Sarge when you have
• 1:03:05
  just reached level 4. Like you're just.
• 1:03:08
  Bigger you're just better than the guys whether.
• 1:03:13
  Defending you and this is trying.
• 1:03:14
  To shoot. Threes.
• 1:03:15
  This is the. Like right before I was about to
• 1:03:18
  say that he was one of the best players in the season's post
• 1:03:23
  season, I was going to say that he's having really good
• 1:03:26
  performances back to his old ways from last year.
• 1:03:30
  He was chucking up shots and Jalen Brown's got to save Boston
• 1:03:34
  4. Of. 15.
• 1:03:36
  Like Brown won the 10 from three.
• 1:03:39
  Yeah, he ain't doing. Much saving.
• 1:03:41
  He ain't doing much saving the night tonight.
• 1:03:43
  Dude. There he has a good.
• 1:03:46
  Point for. 3 throws, 5 of. 16 it just.
• 1:03:52
  Don't forget the. Pacers.
• 1:03:55
  And DJ Blade, you have just reached Level 3 Al Hortford
• 1:03:58
  we're. About to get for the nuts.
• 1:04:01
  Freaking Al. Hortford plays 34 minutes, 2
• 1:04:05
  for, 6/1 for five. This is like prime freaking end
• 1:04:10
  of end of Wilson Chandler's career on the Nuggets.
• 1:04:14
  Where he's playing the whole. Game going one for 8:00 in the
• 1:04:17
  playoffs and just being a body out there.
• 1:04:20
  I can't disrespect Horford too much, but Austin's big.
• 1:04:23
  Problem. Keep up the good.
• 1:04:25
  Work fellas, thank you. We appreciate all the donations
• 1:04:29
  this morning. Big problem.
• 1:04:31
  They got up by a lot and then, yeah, they just turned it into a
• 1:04:34
  three-point contest. They just like they got lazy,
• 1:04:37
  they got sloppy, and New York is a team that's going to
• 1:04:40
  capitalize on local states at step.
• 1:04:44
  Under Score Sarge 1, you have just reached level. 6.
• 1:04:48
  Josh. Hart again, double digit
• 1:04:50
  rebounds and double digit scoring 14 for both of those
• 1:04:53
  thirteen boards for cat 11 for Hart.
• 1:04:57
  Brunson. I mean he's just he's going to
• 1:05:00
  find ways to score. Here's OG Ananobia again man 29
• 1:05:03
  points, the only. Efficient scorer, other than
• 1:05:08
  that was good. Thanks for tuning in.
• 1:05:12
  Yeah. Boston could be.
• 1:05:15
  In some some trouble, they just they got what they really got to
• 1:05:20
  do is just tighten up right? Like don't quit trying to be
• 1:05:24
  cute and got. 20 don't take 20 threes and miss over half of
• 1:05:30
  them like that's just getting sloppy.
• 1:05:34
  You just won the. Championship.
• 1:05:35
  They. Open too many doors for the
• 1:05:37
  Knicks to come back into this game.
• 1:05:38
  New York's going to take that every time.
• 1:05:41
  And now, I mean you've you put yourself in a dangerous
• 1:05:44
  situation. Do I still think Boston can take
• 1:05:46
  this in like 6 games? Probably.
• 1:05:49
  That's why I would put my money on but.
• 1:05:54
  Sneaky. That's a.
• 1:05:54
  Sneaky Knicks team man you Yeah, like if you're.
• 1:05:57
  Boston This just delays the series.
• 1:06:00
  I don't like that you gave. Them this way and I really don't
• 1:06:03
  because this. Was a huge one for everybody
• 1:06:07
  really for like a bad shooting night for like Mikhail Bridges
• 1:06:11
  still played 51 minutes and he played.
• 1:06:14
  He was in this game simply because he's locking people down
• 1:06:17
  in that second-half. Got 3 steals and two blocks and
• 1:06:22
  pretty much the game when he steal, just Hawking the ball
• 1:06:24
  down on that inbound play, ripping it from Tatum after he
• 1:06:29
  hit that huge clutch three. I mean, thank you for bringing.
• 1:06:33
  This is somebody. That's saved in the game, dude.
• 1:06:37
  He just stayed in at 51 minutes. He couldn't score at all.
• 1:06:41
  I'm going to do everything else I can.
• 1:06:43
  It's going to benefit us. Iron Man player right there.
• 1:06:48
  He was on one. All right now.
• 1:06:52
  We're going to go talk about who I think is the scariest team in
• 1:06:55
  the East. That's the Indiana Pacers.
• 1:06:59
  Oh no, this team is on terror. And like he, you know why I
• 1:07:04
  think they're so scary it they are so deep.
• 1:07:09
  And it's just like, you kind of just have to pray that the whole
• 1:07:14
  team plays bad. You have one guy off the.
• 1:07:18
  Bench playing bad, you know, a couple bench guys playing bad,
• 1:07:20
  few stars playing bad, but they have just so much depth, so many
• 1:07:24
  guys that can step up and answer the call that you have to pretty
• 1:07:30
  much like your team's got to play their best basketball.
• 1:07:34
  Their offense is, you know, they're they're just good enough
• 1:07:38
  defensively to, you know, make it tough on you and an
• 1:07:43
  offensively there's such a like a a free form style to their it
• 1:07:49
  really looks like. There is no offense and all
• 1:07:52
  people. It looks like their plan is that
• 1:07:55
  there is no plan. Obviously there is no plan.
• 1:07:57
  They've got plays. They do got some plays, motions,
• 1:08:00
  things they like to run. But yeah, I like it.
• 1:08:03
  It's the closest thing to street ball we got on the NBA court.
• 1:08:07
  And it's just like you can't. Teams just can't really stop it.
• 1:08:10
  I mean, they're like good for like almost 120 a night.
• 1:08:14
  So you'll close your. Eyes and they go on a 20 point
• 1:08:16
  run on you like it doesn't matter.
• 1:08:19
  You know how much your superstar is going off Giannis and that
• 1:08:23
  last series against them had like one of them had like an all
• 1:08:26
  timer series. He averaged like 3620 seven in
• 1:08:30
  that series, like just godly numbers and they took care of
• 1:08:34
  them in five. And they'll do that.
• 1:08:37
  LJ Sure, one guy can beat us because we're going to have
• 1:08:41
  eight guys beat you like. They really are probably the
• 1:08:46
  deepest team in this. I mean, just based on how
• 1:08:49
  consistent they play, they look like they have the most depth
• 1:08:53
  right now. NBA teams.
• 1:08:55
  I thought Tyrese Halliburton was underrated or overrated.
• 1:08:58
  What? Yeah, I thought.
• 1:09:00
  He was the most overrated that I guess.
• 1:09:02
  Dude 20. 22 points in game, 113 assists.
• 1:09:07
  He was the leading. Scorer from there but then you I
• 1:09:10
  could just like the whole starting unit was great yeah 23
• 1:09:15
  out of them hard. So actually he was the leading
• 1:09:16
  scorer, but 17 out of Nesmith and Siakam while also putting up
• 1:09:22
  8 rebounds from both of those guys.
• 1:09:24
  Miles Turner 13 points, 11 boards, 3 steals, 2 blocks.
• 1:09:30
  The defense and all like the two way potential Miles Turner is
• 1:09:33
  just scary. The bench unit Benedict Mathurin
• 1:09:37
  has been a dog off the bench. TJ McConnell is gives you very
• 1:09:41
  efficient minutes off of there even though he wasn't to do
• 1:09:44
  anything too crazy in this one. OB top and his athleticism and
• 1:09:47
  play making ability give you a lot of versatility off the bench
• 1:09:52
  there. Excuse me.
• 1:09:56
  Thank you everybody. For the gifts, we really
• 1:09:58
  appreciate it. We use it to buy Snickers.
• 1:10:01
  Yeah, well. Keep us well fed and keep us fed
• 1:10:04
  in the studio. The gifts come and.
• 1:10:07
  Clutch the Cavs side then they they got banged up in this one
• 1:10:10
  too after dropping it. Thought Mobley was pretty good.
• 1:10:15
  I don't think he had really. He didn't have a real huge
• 1:10:18
  impact on the defensive end. And again, that's just like the
• 1:10:21
  ability for the Pacers to kind of like move him out of the play
• 1:10:26
  and not they, they did a good job.
• 1:10:28
  And that just like kind of getting him away from where
• 1:10:31
  they're going and he sprained his ankle.
• 1:10:33
  In game one anyways. So you miss him in Game 2.
• 1:10:37
  Garland's miss back-to-back Mitchell.
• 1:10:40
  Hunter is out game. 2. Again, like this is something
• 1:10:45
  you can't do. Like I get you're getting the
• 1:10:46
  points but the unethical shot? Shocking bro. 13 to 31 of 11
• 1:10:51
  from the three. Like if that's the efficiency
• 1:10:54
  you're going to give me to get 33, like I would just rather you
• 1:10:57
  do anything else even in game. Two he's got he dropped 48 on
• 1:11:03
  him, but 15 to 30 and was one for seven from three.
• 1:11:10
  Yeah, another struggle bus situation there.
• 1:11:14
  They had more of a team. Performance here in game two,
• 1:11:17
  though, like Jared Allen, went off for 22 spruce.
• 1:11:22
  Gave him 23. Yeah.
• 1:11:23
  No DeAndre Hunter, no Darius Garland.
• 1:11:26
  He hasn't been getting good to go in this one.
• 1:11:29
  Evan Mobley was out in this game and I don't know why.
• 1:11:32
  The hell They're not just playing Tristan Thompson at this
• 1:11:36
  point. Just to like.
• 1:11:38
  Throw a guy into the lineup that has some playoff experience.
• 1:11:43
  Like, horrible. Decision making and like blew
• 1:11:46
  this game in the final minute, like dumb passes that led to
• 1:11:51
  turnovers, bad shot attempts, you know, just not like giving
• 1:11:56
  up an easy baskets and all that stuff.
• 1:11:59
  And then, yeah, Halliburton hits the the step back three on you
• 1:12:04
  that close out the night and you getting like going in with a a
• 1:12:09
  pretty good lead and then getting outscored 36 to 21 in
• 1:12:14
  the fourth, letting Indiana just come back in there.
• 1:12:18
  And that's that's what makes these Pacers so dangerous.
• 1:12:22
  You open the door for him and like you can be up by a lot.
• 1:12:25
  And just like that, that time just came back up.
• 1:12:28
  Oh, they're looking to take the lead.
• 1:12:30
  And it's the the depth man, like all the starters again, a double
• 1:12:34
  digit scoring, but then Matheran giving a 19 off the bench.
• 1:12:38
  Halle didn't even have to do too much this game. 19 points still
• 1:12:41
  had nine boards. So it was Nemhard making all the
• 1:12:44
  play making in this game. 13 points 13 boards bro like look
• 1:12:49
  at the. Rebounding from all their all
• 1:12:50
  the starters too. Nee Smith forward.
• 1:12:53
  This guy's grabbing. Four or more boards like.
• 1:12:57
  Turner 8 Your leading rebounder is usually someone you think
• 1:13:02
  would have the most assists. No, Nemhard's got it tonight.
• 1:13:05
  He'll lead us an assist. I'll get the boards, Miles
• 1:13:08
  Turner. And.
• 1:13:10
  Nesmith are going to fill it up offensively and so you should.
• 1:13:14
  Have the hards between those two dudes.
• 1:13:17
  Yeah, 3:00 and 5:00. Miles Turner. 2385 blocks there.
• 1:13:22
  He's and the steal for both of those guys as well.
• 1:13:25
  Nesmith also 23 points, his four rebounds, 3 blocks there.
• 1:13:31
  I mean, they got guys that are doing it at a high level that
• 1:13:35
  are stepping up and answering the call right now.
• 1:13:39
  This is looking like the best, most cohesive and In Sync
• 1:13:42
  starting five that we've got left in the playoffs.
• 1:13:46
  I'm. Checking their regular season
• 1:13:49
  schedule right here because this was a team at the beginning of
• 1:13:52
  the year. Everybody was like, man.
• 1:13:55
  What's going on? With the Pacers, they weren't
• 1:13:59
  really in the mix. They weren't really in the
• 1:14:01
  conversation. They were.
• 1:14:03
  Honestly, they were. Slept on.
• 1:14:05
  They responded on this year in the postseason.
• 1:14:08
  'Cause I just don't think the regular season expectations that
• 1:14:11
  that I had for them, they didn't really match those and I didn't
• 1:14:15
  give them the really the respect that they deserved for that.
• 1:14:18
  Because they I'm, I'm seeing it. I'm seeing why Boston's was
• 1:14:23
  lose. More than three.
• 1:14:24
  Games in a row the whole year, besides one stretch in November,
• 1:14:27
  they lost four games in a row like Sent before that stretch in
• 1:14:32
  November or after they didn't lose any more than three games
• 1:14:36
  and they got like two or three like 5 game streaks in here home
• 1:14:42
  and on the road. So I mean honestly, like they
• 1:14:44
  kind of why? Why Boston fans were talking had
• 1:14:49
  horror stories about the Pacers from last year's playoffs.
• 1:14:52
  So I'm like, that was a team they swept.
• 1:14:55
  Super competitive sweep, but they swept them.
• 1:14:56
  But they were like, yeah, like, they're just talking, like
• 1:14:59
  they're absolutely horrified, so I'm fair.
• 1:15:02
  And Dodge appreciate you too. Indiana you're.
• 1:15:06
  From Indiana, right? Fair.
• 1:15:07
  And Pacers, man, they're, they're looking.
• 1:15:10
  Good dude, welcome to the East. Finals.
• 1:15:13
  I really think they can make the just the finals honestly.
• 1:15:18
  Yeah, it doesn't feel like an underdog They.
• 1:15:22
  Are. They're something's awakening in
• 1:15:25
  that team, and it's a scary team.
• 1:15:27
  I don't want to see at all. But hey, you know another team
• 1:15:33
  that looks like there's something awakening in them,
• 1:15:36
  though I don't wanna see. It all they woke up.
• 1:15:39
  Basketball Nuggets The Beast. That's what the fuck they woke
• 1:15:43
  up Jokic. He said the best The beast is
• 1:15:46
  always most dangerous when it feels vulnerable.
• 1:15:50
  We got a couple. Clips HG.
• 1:15:52
  The first one is just disrespectful.
• 1:15:55
  The first clip H trade actually sent this one in coming from the
• 1:15:59
  news news reporter Kyle Clark talking about Larimer square and
• 1:16:03
  how they're just disrespecting the Nuggets.
• 1:16:05
  So let's watch this first clip right here of all the.
• 1:16:08
  Coloradans who were furiously flipping between the ABS and
• 1:16:11
  Nuggets simultaneous game Sevens on Saturday.
• 1:16:13
  You know who was the most nervous?
• 1:16:15
  The dude who has to hang up the flags at Larimer Square because
• 1:16:19
  that famously photographed St. went all in on the ABS.
• 1:16:23
  Nothing but ABS flags down there.
• 1:16:25
  No Nuggets flags. Insight.
• 1:16:27
  Then the Nuggets won and the ABS lost.
• 1:16:29
  So now that Larimer Square flag guys left flapping in the wind,
• 1:16:32
  we flew over Larimer Square today.
• 1:16:33
  Switchover hasn't happened yet. We reached out to ask why
• 1:16:36
  Larimer Square went all ABS, no Nuggets, and whether the Nuggets
• 1:16:39
  would get some love now that the ABS season is on ice.
• 1:16:43
  Larimer Square told us no, but they told us no very politely in
• 1:16:49
  one of those overly peppy sounding PR statements.
• 1:16:53
  Can we get some of the press release reading music please?
• 1:16:56
  Here it goes quote. As of.
• 1:16:59
  Tuesday, Larimer Square will once again be festooned with
• 1:17:03
  Colorado State flags as downtown Denver's most historic block
• 1:17:08
  gears up for the busy summer season.
• 1:17:13
  Wow, no. Festooning for the Nuggets.
• 1:17:14
  They're our last shot for the postseason in this calendar year
• 1:17:17
  because the Rockies and they can't even get a good old
• 1:17:20
  festooning from Larimer Square. That's rough, guys, but we're
• 1:17:23
  with you, Nuggets. You are forever festooned in our
• 1:17:26
  hearts. It's just kind of messed up.
• 1:17:33
  Yeah, it's just kind of messed up because we have more reasons.
• 1:17:38
  We have more reasons why they should be festooned after game
• 1:17:41
  one against the Thunder. And that's another clip that we
• 1:17:44
  should check out because me and a bunch of random people at this
• 1:17:49
  bar on Monday night, which is one of my days off.
• 1:17:52
  That's why I was out on a Monday night.
• 1:17:54
  Don't think I'm don't think I'm getting too crazy.
• 1:17:56
  I just got a weird work schedule.
• 1:17:59
  But hey, let's check it out 'cause we were festooned the
• 1:18:02
  damn right. That Monday through Friday I'm
• 1:18:04
  on. This is my Sunday today bro.
• 1:18:07
  Exactly. We we got everyone's kind of
• 1:18:09
  mixed up where their schedule is now.
• 1:18:11
  You can't ever get locked can't ever give Monday to Friday
• 1:18:14
  anymore. But let's check this out because
• 1:18:17
  we festooned the Nuggets for this game winner from Aaron
• 1:18:20
  Gordon. Yet another in this play offs
• 1:18:22
  Aaron. Gordon where the Dick shot
• 1:18:34
  Williams. Rick Gordon steal game one.
• 1:18:39
  Beautiful. Aaron Gordon.
• 1:18:41
  Man, beautiful. Sorry.
• 1:18:42
  He's been this year. Around 2 the two playoff game
• 1:18:45
  winners wearing his the. The number 30. $2.00 brother
• 1:18:51
  that he lost and like just hearing everything he's been
• 1:18:53
  doing for his, his brother's, you know, his widowed wife and
• 1:18:58
  their three. He's a good dude.
• 1:19:00
  He's a really good dude. He's just been stepping.
• 1:19:02
  Up freaking great story Uncle of the year and yeah like he's
• 1:19:08
  trying to he's he's getting the moved out here so that they can
• 1:19:11
  you know live closer to him and he can help out more and like
• 1:19:16

• 1:19:19
  vacation and rest and relax and it is been you know travelling
• 1:19:23
  out to go and you know be with his his sister-in-law and and
• 1:19:30
  take care of his nephews. So incredible story and then his
• 1:19:34
  post game interview man. He's given all the credit to
• 1:19:36
  Christian Brown and Russell Russell Westbrook.
• 1:19:39
  Humble king as. Well, he's like.
• 1:19:42
  Russ all game, whenever he's got the ball in his hands, he made,
• 1:19:45
  he likes to make their right play and he found me.
• 1:19:49
  It's like. He he said he's.
• 1:19:51
  Just hooping. I like that the the shooting.
• 1:19:54
  Jump from him from three and not the line.
• 1:19:59
  Exploded. This guy is on a whole nother
• 1:20:02
  level. I used playoff.
• 1:20:05
  Murray, we're talking about playoff Aaron Gordon I used to
• 1:20:08
  like. Close my eyes and cross my
• 1:20:11
  fingers. Just pray that.
• 1:20:15
  Last, Last. Season this year I'm like, oh,
• 1:20:18
  AG is open like that's cash bro and it's it's been cash for the
• 1:20:21
  most part this year. 22 points from AG14 boards Jokic with just
• 1:20:29
  an unreal stat line of 42 points, 22 rebounds, 6 assists,
• 1:20:37
  2 blocked shots, one steal, 60% true shooting Chet and.
• 1:20:42
  Hartenstein, they got their hands full in this series.
• 1:20:47
  They got their hands full with Jokic.
• 1:20:48
  Man, it's like I was saying woke.
• 1:20:51
  We woke up the beast. They just woke up the beast.
• 1:20:55
  He's he's pretty much the head coach at this point.
• 1:20:58
  But we've come to it. Edelman's there.
• 1:21:00
  Edelman calls plays. Obviously Frankie Jokic is the
• 1:21:04
  head coach of this team. He's like himself.
• 1:21:08
  Back in the games, like you'll see him like get up off the
• 1:21:10
  bench and they're like, like where you going?
• 1:21:12
  He's like, I gotta get back in the game.
• 1:21:13
  It's like. I'm gonna.
• 1:21:15
  Lose if I'm not. On the floor.
• 1:21:18
  Just slow him get back. In the game, yeah, the Caruso,
• 1:21:23
  poor God, man. No help.
• 1:21:24
  Fantastic getting out of him, dude. 20 points, assists, 5
• 1:21:29
  steals, all over the court on defense.
• 1:21:32
  He had two blocks shots as well. Like, all right, the rib Alex
• 1:21:37
  Caruso felt bad bro wasn't getting a ton of help.
• 1:21:41
  Him and Lou Dort. A real efficient and Lou Dort
• 1:21:44
  scared me the most from three bro.
• 1:21:47
  It felt like they. Were making whatever they
• 1:21:49
  wanted. It was really just Caruso and
• 1:21:52
  Lou Dora were filling it up from three the.
• 1:21:55
  Shay with an incredibly unethical 3312 O 26 two O 6 from
• 1:22:01
  three again, just just a lot of shot Chuck and he did have 10
• 1:22:05
  points in this one as well. And then shout out Chet Holgrom.
• 1:22:09
  He was the Nuggets real MVP in this game.
• 1:22:11
  Brick in both free throws and missing.
• 1:22:14
  That dunk, Yeah, A. Wide open.
• 1:22:16
  Fast break dunk. And he's over. 7 feet tall, he
• 1:22:21
  got. Posterized by Aaron Gordon
• 1:22:23
  earlier where he like kind of just threw it in and then the
• 1:22:27
  Dwight Howard. Dunked it on him.
• 1:22:29
  Yeah, I got then. He got missed the two free
• 1:22:31
  throws to let Aaron Gordon hit the game-winning three over him.
• 1:22:35
  Like he like he put it. He was on the contest for that
• 1:22:39
  shot and AG's hit it over him. Chet.
• 1:22:43
  You the real MVP, Chet? Shot Mark Ragnall for fouling
• 1:22:49
  Aaron Gordon immediately after the inbound when we gave up that
• 1:22:53
  easy dunk for Shay with 10 seconds left and Jokic was off
• 1:22:58
  before like really appreciate them putting AJ up the line.
• 1:23:01
  He's clutch. He hit his two free throws.
• 1:23:04
  We got Jokic back on the forward game and then, hey, they say
• 1:23:08
  Jokic is defenses. We're like the the smart, the
• 1:23:12
  smart play there of him just taking Shay completely out of
• 1:23:17
  the question with the inbound forcing it to go to a guy like
• 1:23:20
  Chet who isn't a bad free throw shooter but moment was too big
• 1:23:24
  for him. The lights, not his.
• 1:23:25
  Clutch, not his clutch and bad defense from Jokic.
• 1:23:31
  Accounted. For a steal in two blocks on
• 1:23:34
  Monday night's game, right? Thought Peyton wants to do tough
• 1:23:38
  scoring, but he had some pretty big defensive plays.
• 1:23:41
  Couple of huge block shots he had big.
• 1:23:44
  Minutes. Russ was great.
• 1:23:45
  Off the bench with 18 points, Christian Brown, I thought he
• 1:23:50
  shot, you know, shot 50% from the field, hit a three for US,
• 1:23:54
  11 points, 13 rebounds. Dude, just making some hustle
• 1:24:00
  plays out there, getting those boards as a as a guard dudes,
• 1:24:05
  it's just huge for us right right now, man.
• 1:24:11
  When this Nuggets team is on, they look tough to stop.
• 1:24:18
  I also, well, I think a guy who might play a bit of an
• 1:24:22
  extractor. Maybe.
• 1:24:25
  In the series I I'm a little interested just to see Julian
• 1:24:29
  Straw third, maybe get he had 6. Minutes.
• 1:24:33
  He had 6 minutes in this one. Eight to 10 minutes a game.
• 1:24:37
  I just think he could have some type of impact.
• 1:24:39
  Too, I'm not going to lie, I said he was -10 in the.
• 1:24:42
  Plus minus and you know, they there's a lot that goes into
• 1:24:45
  calculating that, but I you know, he hit his the one shot he
• 1:24:49
  took, he hit and I think he just, you know, he probably not
• 1:24:54
  scored. On and he also had the one
• 1:24:58
  turnover. That's true, but.
• 1:25:01
  He I think he opened some things up just, you know, potentially
• 1:25:05
  being a threat to shoot and got the offense a little bit too.
• 1:25:11
  Yeah. He's not really.
• 1:25:13
  He's not. No, I'm just kind.
• 1:25:14
  Of I'm kind of interested, interested to see if he can just
• 1:25:17
  give us a little more offense off the bench because that's
• 1:25:22
  like Russell Westbrook's really the only dude that's scoring for
• 1:25:25
  us off the bench. Like Pete Watts giving us some
• 1:25:27
  great defensive minutes, but we're really only seven guys
• 1:25:31
  deep and Watson's still not getting a ton of minutes, which
• 1:25:35
  is, you know, a little worry, worry some.
• 1:25:38
  And poor there is. He's just a real hit or miss
• 1:25:41
  with that shoulder, it almost looks like.
• 1:25:44
  But he got like his medication mixed up because I like you
• 1:25:48
  heard Stokely was saying like, yo, he kind of looked like me
• 1:25:52
  that one time I got my my oxy and Ambien mixed up and took my
• 1:25:56
  Ambien before practice. Oh, but that's.
• 1:26:02
  Not the most unbelievable thing I've I've heard on the theory of
• 1:26:05
  what was happening 'cause he was, I thought he was really
• 1:26:08
  good against the Clippers in game seven, hit some big time
• 1:26:11
  threes, but then he was just, you know, he was just way off.
• 1:26:15
  And this one, I guess he, he, he blocked the shot there but
• 1:26:21
  wasn't really getting a lot of boards, making a huge defensive
• 1:26:25
  impact. Adelman, or more likely probably
• 1:26:28
  Jokic, made the right call pulling him there.
• 1:26:35
  But I mean. You know.
• 1:26:37
  It's it was for the better. Because the Nuggets got the win
• 1:26:39
  in Game 1, and I think it's one that we really needed.
• 1:26:45
  This is OK C Game 2, still 10 1/2 points favorite on us.
• 1:26:49
  And going going into the game one, they were also 10 1/2 point
• 1:26:55
  favorites. Coming out at halftime, though,
• 1:26:57
  they went up to almost 13 point point differential.
• 1:27:01
  I mean, it looked like it. Was it was on track to get ugly
• 1:27:05
  there in the second-half? There was a bad, bad finish to
• 1:27:09
  the end of the half of the Nuggets.
• 1:27:12
  The way we rally back, that was insane, right?
• 1:27:16
  And that I. That was a huge thing in this
• 1:27:19
  game is just this team. The the.
• 1:27:23
  Poise and experience from a lot of these guys showed you
• 1:27:27
  Westbrook's event that's been doing this a while.
• 1:27:29
  Christian Braun's been getting meaningful minutes.
• 1:27:31
  He was, you know, from our our finals run to last year's
• 1:27:35
  playoffs, Murray, Gordon, Jokic, obviously Peyton Watson, he
• 1:27:41
  seems a little more, you know, like he the moment's a little
• 1:27:45
  less on him because even though he didn't play a Thunder in the
• 1:27:48
  finals run, he was there and he got to experience that.
• 1:27:52
  Whereas, you know, these Thunder players, a lot of these guys,
• 1:27:54
  this is just their second ever playoff run.
• 1:27:57
  And I, they did get a little bit of a cakewalk in, in the first
• 1:28:01
  round. I'm not gonna lie.
• 1:28:01
  Memphis had a lot of issues and, and things that they just were
• 1:28:05
  were able to exploit and be better at.
• 1:28:11
  You're having a good time. Watching this series so far Got.
• 1:28:14
  The Game 2. Tonight they.
• 1:28:17
  Cannot steal another. Game in OK C my way to poor.
• 1:28:21
  Them bro, I, I got to get my my predictions for the rest of
• 1:28:26
  these series. I got the Nugs in six.
• 1:28:31
  I've got the Warriors in six, I've got the Celtics in seven.
• 1:28:38
  Actually, I got the Pacers in five.
• 1:28:40
  I don't. Cleveland's too good to get
• 1:28:43
  swept, I feel, but I think we're going to see.
• 1:28:48
  I like that. Prediction, I might actually
• 1:28:50
  say. Warriors in seven here.
• 1:28:51
  No warriors in six. And I'm.
• 1:28:54
  Still going with the Celtics but I think New York's got a lot of
• 1:28:58
  momentum where they'll take him to seven.
• 1:29:01
  What about you? Pardon, you got your prediction
• 1:29:03
  is about the same as mine. Anything you would switch up
• 1:29:05
  there I. Feel like Nuggets.
• 1:29:09
  I want the Nuggets to win in six.
• 1:29:12
  That's probably my my best prediction.
• 1:29:17
  But I also feel like. The Thunder have a chance to
• 1:29:19
  come back in the series and take us in six.
• 1:29:22
  I feel like it could go either way.
• 1:29:24
  Yeah, we'll see. What?
• 1:29:25
  Some of our role players, you know, show up how they show up
• 1:29:28
  because that's we got two really great games in a row out of a
• 1:29:33
  lot of our role guys, but we've also seen them.
• 1:29:36
  It's got to. They got to continue all off
• 1:29:38
  and. And have in the playoff series,
• 1:29:40
  especially last year against the the T Wolves.
• 1:29:44
  Now this one. I want to say, I want to say
• 1:29:47
  Minnesota and seven, but I got to go freaking.
• 1:29:51
  I'm going Warriors in six. I think they're just too.
• 1:29:57
  They're on too much of a heater. And I kind of want the Western
• 1:30:00
  Conference finals to be Warriors Nuggets so Jimmy Butler can once
• 1:30:04
  again let Joker bust his ass. That's how.
• 1:30:10
  Let's move on to the next round. Yeah, if.
• 1:30:13
  It's if the Nuggets get the Warriors next, it's over.
• 1:30:18
  'Cause there's no way we're not going to use it.
• 1:30:20
  There's. Nobody to stop yogic like Kevon
• 1:30:22
  Looney Quinn post Come on, go ahead.
• 1:30:24
  Yeah, like. Go.
• 1:30:26
  Like the T Wolves, they at least they they have that rotation.
• 1:30:28
  They still got like something that they can throw at us like
• 1:30:31
  that with with the Knicks and Gobert, Reed and and Randall.
• 1:30:35
  He's not not exactly cap, but he's big enough to get the job
• 1:30:38
  done where they can just throw a lot of bodies on Jokic.
• 1:30:42
  A lot of big bodies, you know? That's why I want the.
• 1:30:46
  Warriors to win. I I would hope that the
• 1:30:49
  Timberwolves could take them though.
• 1:30:51
  Knicks, Celtics. Honestly, I want to go.
• 1:30:55
  I'm going Celtics in seven. I agree with you there.
• 1:30:58
  I feel like that Knicks are going to keep themselves in a
• 1:31:01
  lot of these games. I feel like a lot of the a lot
• 1:31:04
  of their endings are going to be like this game one where it's
• 1:31:08
  going to be just a close battle all the way.
• 1:31:11
  One of the newest rivalries that we got built out because the
• 1:31:14
  East is just improving. Teams are getting deeper.
• 1:31:18
  It's harder to get through. It's not.
• 1:31:19
  It's like the. Top four teams are all very the
• 1:31:24
  top four teams I think of the East came out into the second
• 1:31:27
  round. They're all very good.
• 1:31:30
  It is. I still think it's a pretty
• 1:31:31
  significant drop off after these 4 though.
• 1:31:35
  Oh yeah, you. Know, but after.
• 1:31:39
  I mean. Honestly, after the Pistons
• 1:31:42
  there's a huge drop off, but Pistons are good.
• 1:31:44
  Bucks are are kind of falling off but the Pistons are on their
• 1:31:48
  way up. The magic are right like they
• 1:31:50
  changes and tweaks they could be right there for sure.
• 1:31:53
  Defensively I. Think they're there, They held.
• 1:31:56
  They have lost into some pretty low scoring games.
• 1:31:59
  That's the second. Best defense in the league this
• 1:32:01
  year, only behind Oklahoma City. Yeah, they're.
• 1:32:04
  They're good, man. They got, they're on.
• 1:32:06
  Locks, man, they just got a unlock some more on offense and
• 1:32:09
  I think it just involves freeing up Paulo from ball handler
• 1:32:13
  responsibilities. I think he, you know, you just
• 1:32:17
  better front court, Yeah. That's all.
• 1:32:20
  I'll leave that. We've been going Pacers.
• 1:32:23
  They want. To.
• 1:32:23
  Say Cavs and seven, but I'm just going to take a higher out here.
• 1:32:28
  Pacers, Pacers and five. Pacers.
• 1:32:31
  And five. We're going to do another quick
• 1:32:34
  break. Stay with us when we come back,
• 1:32:37
  we're going to have the NHL round two breakdown as it's all
• 1:32:41
  kicking off underway. Our ABS are out of it, but we
• 1:32:45
  still got some great hockey. We had a double overtime
• 1:32:47
  thriller to end round one between the Blues and All Blank
• 1:32:55
  on the team, but Winnipeg, The Jets.
• 1:32:59
  The Jets. And we're on to round two.
• 1:33:02
  A lot of good matchups there, so don't go anywhere.
• 1:33:04
  You're listening till the final whistle.
• 1:33:06
  You're on military broadcast radio.
• 1:35:55
  The station where our veterans voices are heard.
• 1:35:58
  MBR talk. Hey, thanks for tuning in.
• 1:36:04
  Welcome back program. Are those of the speakers and do
• 1:36:06
  not necessarily reflect the views or positions of any
• 1:36:10
  entities they represent. The web at MB radio dot you are.
• 1:36:17
  Looking live until the final whistle on military broadcast
• 1:36:21
  radio, the boys are finally back for the final.
• 1:36:25
  Probably final. I'm 25 the show.
• 1:36:28
  Sorry to break into you though, Kyle.
• 1:36:30
  We are talking hockey right now. Yeah, no.
• 1:36:34
  We let's show, we'll RIP the Band-Aid off here the way up the
• 1:36:38
  foot. They did they really?
• 1:36:40
  Did I think they could have won this series in 5?
• 1:36:43
  We let it slip. We went on a really big run here
• 1:36:48
  we can take in game one. Game 2 OT loss was rough.
• 1:36:53
  Game three, we kept everything so close but.
• 1:36:58
  Game 5 was, I mean honestly this could have been a sweep.
• 1:37:01
  Game 5 was just about the only game where the stars played
• 1:37:07
  better than the AVS for pretty much the whole game.
• 1:37:12
  Like. Every single one of these games
• 1:37:15
  the AVS looked like the better team until like that final half
• 1:37:20
  of the third period. And they would or in the
• 1:37:22
  overtime and just start slipping away.
• 1:37:26
  I don't think they they were pretty bad on on a lot of their
• 1:37:30
  power plays in this series. That's where we really.
• 1:37:36
  Lost it right those opportunities Game 7.
• 1:37:41
  Holding a pretty solid lead where we were, the defense was,
• 1:37:48
  you know, keeping the, the puck on Dallas's side of the ice.
• 1:37:53
  Two solid goals. It looked like, you know, we
• 1:37:55
  could we're going to have to win this, you know, like the the,
• 1:38:00
  the nitty gritty defense and just not let anything up.
• 1:38:04
  And then four goals in the 3rd to wrap.
• 1:38:09
  It up though one time. Miko Rantanen.
• 1:38:12
  That gets a hat trick in Game 7 and knock out the ABS that's.
• 1:38:18
  Come on. Salt in the.
• 1:38:19
  Wound there too, right? Like that's how that would of
• 1:38:23
  course be how this series would end. 3 for 20. 4 on the power
• 1:38:27
  play dude, we really could have swept this team like you look.
• 1:38:32
  At you go and look back at it that they should have had it
• 1:38:37
  like game one dominated game. Game 2 choked the choked out of
• 1:38:43
  the way into the end OT. Game three, same thing they were
• 1:38:48
  leading the whole time until that last overtime shot.
• 1:38:52
  Game 4 shut him out and then go game.
• 1:38:58
  Game 5, only game where we we didn't look like we didn't look
• 1:39:02
  good, where Dallas looked played better than us.
• 1:39:06
  Because you come back Game 7 or game six, big win there.
• 1:39:09
  And then Game 7, hold in the lead for so long and then those
• 1:39:15
  those last few goals just come in in like the final three
• 1:39:18
  minutes, first go up and then on the end we we let Miko get get
• 1:39:25
  away towards the empty net. It was.
• 1:39:30
  It was. Brutal I.
• 1:39:35
  Should have been. Should have, should have, should
• 1:39:37
  have swept and should have been waiting for, you know, over a
• 1:39:39
  week to play Winnipeg. Yeah, honestly, we should.
• 1:39:44
  Have had all the time off in the world, not over till that final.
• 1:39:47
  Whistle plays and Dallas, credit to them, never quit in any of
• 1:39:52
  these games. They always kept fighting,
• 1:39:54
  battling back. We're able to really come back
• 1:39:58
  and steal 2 games. That should have been losses for
• 1:40:01
  them. That's why they're moving on.
• 1:40:06
  And Speaking of. Winnipeg though, a series that
• 1:40:10
  really confused me that it went to seven games here.
• 1:40:13
  Saint Louis came out of nowhere, dude.
• 1:40:17
  Bringing this one to seven games.
• 1:40:21
  Right, made it a series, tightened it up there at the end
• 1:40:24
  there and closed the door. Cole Perfetti with the two goals
• 1:40:30
  here for The Jets and this one and Nevistrav Stravkov and Lowry
• 1:40:37
  also adding some goals there. Heila Buck was great in his goal
• 1:40:43
  spot. Didn't have to go away from any
• 1:40:44
  other rough couple stretches. Yeah, Games 3 through 6 weren't
• 1:40:51
  weren't exactly his his best work all season, but he really
• 1:40:55
  clutched up here. And, you know, weather pages
• 1:40:59
  wanded more. They they just shot a barrage
• 1:41:04
  40. Seven shots, 73 hits and it's a
• 1:41:08
  clean game of only two penalty minutes.
• 1:41:13
  All that. Action and.
• 1:41:15
  Intensity, man. They want to have a.
• 1:41:17
  Very bitter and it's unfortunate that they ran into Winnipeg.
• 1:41:23
  They probably would have they if they didn't end up coming in as
• 1:41:27
  like one of those wild card teams, they probably could have
• 1:41:30
  beaten somebody else. Winnipeg's a really good, deep
• 1:41:32
  team. Unfortunate for that, really.
• 1:41:35
  Yeah, they ran. Into the hardest match up.
• 1:41:38
  One of the hardest match ups on this Western Conference.
• 1:41:41
  Definitely a team. That a lot of people got as a
• 1:41:45
  favorite to at least make it to the cup here as well and the
• 1:41:50
  wild their little insanity run the the Knights tightened it up
• 1:41:54
  and knit that shit in the bud there yeah yeah ended the.
• 1:41:58
  Two game streak and just beat him in a row, locked it back.
• 1:42:05
  Locked it back in 4-5 and six. Really.
• 1:42:10
  So who? Showed you the.
• 1:42:11
  Better team was here really like Minnesota though don't sleep on
• 1:42:14
  him in the West here in this in this coming in future if they
• 1:42:18
  keep their guys like their young players are real aggressive and
• 1:42:23
  they like to be on the point of attack honestly like.
• 1:42:27
  They they really. Could get and improved pretty
• 1:42:29
  well. They were in the playoff mix all
• 1:42:31
  year in the West. They they played the.
• 1:42:36
  ABS tough a lot and really kind of kept us on our toes.
• 1:42:40
  Could not agree. With you more on this point,
• 1:42:42
  Kyle do not like this hockey seating at all.
• 1:42:46
  It is. That's no seriously though.
• 1:42:50
  I think it just it. Doesn't really.
• 1:42:52
  Like, sometimes you're just punished for, you know, for
• 1:42:58
  still being a good team, like. I don't know you just.
• 1:43:04
  Not a lot of it's not very rewarding for the for the the
• 1:43:10
  two and three seeds that they got to play each other round
• 1:43:12
  one. And you would want to, I would,
• 1:43:15
  yeah, want those matchups to occur more, to occur deeper into
• 1:43:19
  the playoffs because I think that's that's an issue you can
• 1:43:22
  just run into as you get your good matchups.
• 1:43:25
  You're real close. Ones happen in round two and
• 1:43:27
  then you can get some around one.
• 1:43:29
  You're going to get some real lopsided ones and Round 2 or
• 1:43:32
  even in the finals, the the conference finals, yeah.
• 1:43:37
  Like at least maybe give us a second round AB stars match up
• 1:43:42
  that's a little bit better you're.
• 1:43:48
  Yeah, like the the dividing it out by like conferences and
• 1:43:52
  everything. I think it's just top eight
• 1:43:54
  teams, you know, break it out. So then we would have probably
• 1:43:58
  been looking at like Winnipeg, Minnesota that.
• 1:44:04
  Would have probably put the. ABS playing without being
• 1:44:09
  probably the the. Knights No, no, no.
• 1:44:12
  We'd probably be playing the the Oilers, which.
• 1:44:17
  Still would have been a really great round one match up, you
• 1:44:19
  know. Speaking of the.
• 1:44:22
  Oilers Was this the fourth straight year they've eliminated
• 1:44:25
  the Kings from the playoffs? Just when you.
• 1:44:29
  Think the Kings are having like a solid season, Like they put
• 1:44:36
  something together. They just run into the Oilers in
• 1:44:39
  the first round talking about getting.
• 1:44:42
  Like a team man and look at this this series just the way this
• 1:44:48
  went Kings two big wins to start out the series at home feeling
• 1:44:55
  good up 2O. This year might be.
• 1:44:59
  Different 12 goals between those two games Bam dropped four
• 1:45:03
  straight I mean that almost feels worse than getting swept
• 1:45:09
  is getting up to 2O and then just losing four straight I
• 1:45:14
  don't know what I would that's like the.
• 1:45:16
  Worst way? The worst gentleman sweep, just
• 1:45:21
  going up two games and then you took four nights off, almost
• 1:45:24
  like a little. More disrespectful than a
• 1:45:26
  gentleman sweep? Yeah, that's.
• 1:45:29
  Yeah, that's. Crazy to me both teams came out
• 1:45:32
  firing in this game 63, the two Edmonton's advantage at the end
• 1:45:37
  of the first. And then you know.
• 1:45:39
  Another three goals, 2 for the Oilers, one for the Kings, and
• 1:45:44
  this the second and two goals there at the end.
• 1:45:47
  Yeah, Kings just weren't able to to climb out of the hole on this
• 1:45:52
  one. Oilers.
• 1:45:54
  Just a veteran team, yeah. Like.
• 1:45:57
  David, it's just kind of chill and only only have one assist do
• 1:46:01
  get Hopkins getting in there. Connor Brown, Adam Heinrich,
• 1:46:07
  Frederick, man, it was it was a real good game just from all
• 1:46:12
  those guys. Calvin Pickard great.
• 1:46:16
  I just did did a great job on the the goal keeping both of the
• 1:46:19
  goalies are pretty solid in this one.
• 1:46:21
  Just with how much firepower I think both of these teams can
• 1:46:24
  can bring offensively to the ice.
• 1:46:29
  That's just demons for the kings man.
• 1:46:32
  I just can't imagine like. I I might.
• 1:46:36
  Have the years wrong but like it it 3-4 years in a row where?
• 1:46:42
  One teams. Ended your season, you got it.
• 1:46:46
  Second round Edmonton already leads the series 4 to 2, so
• 1:46:53
  they. Bowl game one on the road, four
• 1:47:00
  to two, Yeah, that'll be a good. Series right there, but similar
• 1:47:06
  to the NBA over on the East, the series closed up pretty
• 1:47:11
  convincingly in the first round for these teams.
• 1:47:15
  Washington, Carolina and Florida Panthers all getting a gentleman
• 1:47:20
  sweep in the first round. Maple Leafs only team getting
• 1:47:24
  brought to six games against the Senators, right?
• 1:47:29
  Senators fought for a moment there that they might they might
• 1:47:32
  do something a little scary, but they had a kind of a meltdown.
• 1:47:38
  Yeah, Game 6. Meltdown here, Game 6 where they
• 1:47:44
  just kind of played super, super slow.
• 1:47:48
  Feel like it was just just sloppy.
• 1:47:50
  The guy that tied? Back up and you're like, OK,
• 1:47:52
  like you feel like something building here and then just
• 1:47:57
  complete collapse defensively, gave up some too easy.
• 1:48:05
  Two goals that I felt were too easy when you're in that in the
• 1:48:07
  elimination game and the Leafs survive.
• 1:48:13
  Had a little bit of a scare there, but they're moving on to
• 1:48:16
  the second round and we got to look at some of these second
• 1:48:20
  round matchups. 3 game ones to go and our very last game one
• 1:48:25
  tonight at 7:30 on ESPN should be the ABS.
• 1:48:31
  Should be the ABS, should be The Jets.
• 1:48:36
  Let's go, jets. Edmonton got their.
• 1:48:40
  Their first? Victory of round one on the road
• 1:48:43
  against. The Golden.
• 1:48:45
  Knights let me take a deeper look at what went down here in
• 1:48:49
  game one and the power play opportunities.
• 1:48:57
  Edmonton O for two and still with a double them up on their
• 1:49:01
  goals. So Vegas was one for three,
• 1:49:07
  neither team taking very good advantage of that right there.
• 1:49:11
  Edmonton was just clearing them on the face off wins though, 33
• 1:49:19
  to 19. Looks like my camera's going up,
• 1:49:21
  but I'm still here on the audio. Oh Yup, you're frozen.
• 1:49:25
  Oh geez, we'll keep rolling be. Nice if we have some guy here
• 1:49:29
  though. It's all right.
• 1:49:33
  It's all right now. It's good.
• 1:49:35
  Let's go on. He's a busy guy.
• 1:49:38
  He's a busy guy. A lot of people are not trying
• 1:49:41
  to get this attention. Yeah, Edmonton.
• 1:49:45
  I like another team man. They're deep.
• 1:49:48
  I like the I just like the the depth they got here. 4 different
• 1:49:51
  guys scoring all these goals, Dry Sidle and him and McDavid
• 1:49:57
  are on. That's a that's a scary combo.
• 1:49:59
  Caught 2 assists out of McDavid. Connor Brown getting set up here
• 1:50:05
  with one Evander Kane also adding an assist here.
• 1:50:08
  Corey Perry got the goal, Zach Hyman got a goal and they just
• 1:50:14
  kept, they really kept the puck away from Calvin Pickard, man he
• 1:50:17
  only 17 shot attempts. 15 saves. For him tonight, they didn't
• 1:50:23
  really make him work too hard though.
• 1:50:26
  It was smart, bro. It's the way to do it.
• 1:50:28
  Honestly, it's the way to do it, yes.
• 1:50:34
  I thought they they had a real they seem to be kind of
• 1:50:38
  frustrating. Jack Eichel a bit in this one
• 1:50:42
  was what I feel he was. They're taking a lot of
• 1:50:45
  opportunities away from him. Mark Stone stepped up in the big
• 1:50:48
  way. Two goals, the only two goals in
• 1:50:50
  this one here. Yeah, Vegas.
• 1:50:55
  Kind of feel bad about dropping the one here on here at home
• 1:51:00
  looking though like Edmonton I could I'd say probably in six
• 1:51:05
  here. Edmonton 6 Knights are a really
• 1:51:07
  good team but. Losing this one here.
• 1:51:10
  On the road that that really drops their chances of of being
• 1:51:14
  able to to take this Series A lot for me losing home ice
• 1:51:20
  advantage. I don't.
• 1:51:22
  I don't like. That for them, just with how
• 1:51:25
  good these Oilers are, you just can't be, you can't be giving
• 1:51:29
  away home games like that. It's not one.
• 1:51:33
  You want to lose for Vegas. Playing a veteran team like
• 1:51:36
  this, you got to take what you can get.
• 1:51:40
  There's a higher seed. They have the advantage at home.
• 1:51:43
  They needed WAVY to win this game too.
• 1:51:47
  Tomorrow night they. Need it, isn't it bad?
• 1:51:51
  All right. Well, we got another game
• 1:51:53
  tonight, game two of the Maple Leafs and the Panthers, Toronto
• 1:51:59
  coming away with. Game.
• 1:52:03
  One this was a super close game though, and I honestly I'm the
• 1:52:11
  Panthers. I don't even feel too bad about
• 1:52:14
  this. They're going to be I still, I
• 1:52:17
  still like them in this series more.
• 1:52:20
  Got some goals out of their defenseman.
• 1:52:23
  I thought it was kind of a. A quiet night for you know, guys
• 1:52:27
  like Reinhardt to Chuck did have an assist in this one, but I not
• 1:52:34
  not his biggest game. Sam Bennett getting the goal for
• 1:52:37
  you, but so you know, one of your big three out there doing
• 1:52:40
  some work there. Vert hanging with the two
• 1:52:43
  assists as well around the channel with two assists.
• 1:52:48
  Real thing is like we had William Nylander got a goal 33
• 1:52:53
  seconds into this game for the Maple Leafs and like they 30
• 1:52:58
  shots, they're bringing an extreme pace to this game.
• 1:53:04
  Seems like they just want to play extremely fast with the
• 1:53:07
  five power play opportunities. I got no no power play goals,
• 1:53:12
  but I had five opportunities. So I mean, they're getting their
• 1:53:15
  chances that they need. They're like, if they keep
• 1:53:18
  playing at this pace, though, they might be able to sneak one
• 1:53:21
  on. The Panthers might get a huge
• 1:53:23
  series right. Panthers also didn't want a lot
• 1:53:27
  of face offs. That's where I'm like, I feel
• 1:53:29
  like, yeah, you can feel pretty confident as your floor that you
• 1:53:32
  didn't really play very well much.
• 1:53:33
  I turned it on there in the 4th and made it made it into little
• 1:53:37
  things. Little things they needed to get
• 1:53:39
  it back. Right.
• 1:53:42
  And I, I think they'll tighten that up and especially they,
• 1:53:44
  they come back to home ice. You gotta remember this is.
• 1:53:48
  The defending champions from last year team to sleep on.
• 1:53:52
  At all got D. Landed bro.
• 1:53:55
  This guy was just a he was What's the what's the NHL term
• 1:54:01
  for hooping? He was.
• 1:54:04
  Well. Hockey has got to let.
• 1:54:05
  Me know what that would do. Yeah, Kyle.
• 1:54:07
  Dropped out in the comments. He was, what do you call it,
• 1:54:10
  bro? He.
• 1:54:10
  Was he was out there skating? Skating.
• 1:54:15
  Yo, let's just say that for now. I like that.
• 1:54:17
  That's all I. Got yeah, now he was like he was
• 1:54:21
  the big difference for Toronto, really power it like really
• 1:54:26
  power in the way on this victory.
• 1:54:29
  Got some defenceman goals out of Riley Tanavev and then Matthew
• 1:54:36
  Kanese also adding the goal for him as well.
• 1:54:41
  I would. Probably I'd I'd see this game
• 1:54:44
  or this series go on the seven, though.
• 1:54:46
  These two teams seem like they're very well matched up.
• 1:54:49
  They've got great attackers on offense on both sides, really
• 1:54:53
  solid defenseman on on both ends and I I like both of these
• 1:54:58
  goalies. Both of these goalies are really
• 1:54:59
  good. Although they went away from
• 1:55:02
  Joseph wall there late in the game, which I thought was a
• 1:55:07
  little interesting. Went over to Stolar.
• 1:55:10
  So we'll see how that affects, you know, wall and his
• 1:55:14
  confidence pulling them in game one.
• 1:55:18
  Panthers. They suck with Bob Roski the
• 1:55:20
  whole way. I thought Sergei was really
• 1:55:24
  solid. Obviously he gave up five goals,
• 1:55:27
  but. He had the he.
• 1:55:31
  Had a lot of action coming his way from this Maple Leafs team.
• 1:55:37
  Well, then that just leaves us with our our final little Game 2
• 1:55:43
  here going down tomorrow. The NHL, Stanley Cup, Capitals,
• 1:55:49
  Hurricanes. The Canes actually took game
• 1:55:53
  one. And if look at the stats dude,
• 1:55:56
  it looks like the Capitals came out half asleep. 14 shots in
• 1:56:03
  game one. Now where was that?
• 1:56:06
  Like, great offense that they had all year.
• 1:56:09
  Nobody capitalized on the power play.
• 1:56:12
  And this one, yeah, they just Carolina, you know, big win on
• 1:56:19
  the road for him, just did everything a lot better than the
• 1:56:23
  Capitals did. So I guess if you're Washington,
• 1:56:26
  the one thing that maybe 1 positive you can take away from
• 1:56:30
  this is that you played pretty poorly and only lost by one
• 1:56:33
  point in overtime. But I don't know.
• 1:56:37
  I, I like that the the confidence that this could
• 1:56:40
  instill in Carolina. Yeah.
• 1:56:42
  This. Could send them on a run.
• 1:56:43
  Dude, the canes. Easy night to be a goalie when
• 1:56:48
  you only got a deal with 14 shots the whole the whole night
• 1:56:52
  again, just like half asleep thing.
• 1:56:55
  Like where's where's the offense?
• 1:56:57
  Where's the pressure on the goal?
• 1:56:59
  Just wasn't there, and Vechkin didn't really look himself
• 1:57:07
  either. And they lost.
• 1:57:08
  A whole lot of face offs, yeah. And then at. 6.
• 1:57:12
  Penalty minutes doesn't sound like a lot, but like for the
• 1:57:16
  play offs in hockey we've seen a lot of games where people are
• 1:57:19
  getting like 2 play, 2 penalty minutes and throughout like six
• 1:57:23
  games in a row. So I mean.
• 1:57:26
  Having that many. It might.
• 1:57:28
  That might put a big dividend in this series, too.
• 1:57:34
  Let's let's drop our Round 2 predictions.
• 1:57:36
  K, man. We'll start on this one here.
• 1:57:38
  Capitals, Canes. Who you like in this one?
• 1:57:42
  How many? No, I'm going canes.
• 1:57:43
  In seven canes. In seven.
• 1:57:45
  OK, I'm going to go a little. Sneaky pick, I'm going to say.
• 1:57:49
  Capitals, but I'm going to say they have to get it done in
• 1:57:51
  seven. I think not getting game one's
• 1:57:54
  going to force them to go to Game 7 here.
• 1:57:57
  That's going to. Bring a lot of momentum Toronto
• 1:58:01
  and. For the Maple Leafs.
• 1:58:05
  Panthers. Who we like here?
• 1:58:07
  This one I want. To go with the upset on it, but
• 1:58:10
  I'm going to go Panthers in six. Read my mind.
• 1:58:15
  That's where I'm at on this good game one win for the the Leafs
• 1:58:21
  Panthers. I'm just not ready to to count
• 1:58:23
  the defending champs out yet, I think.
• 1:58:24
  Not quite yet. Not yet.
• 1:58:27
  They look really good. We're going to, we're going to
• 1:58:30
  say Panthers in six, Edmonton and Vegas.
• 1:58:35
  Who do we like here? Honestly man.
• 1:58:41
  I might go. Oilers with a with a gentleman
• 1:58:44
  sweep here in five. Well, we lose.
• 1:58:47
  In five, OK, I'm going to even get hit.
• 1:58:49
  You be more this sexual. I'm saying Oilers in four sweep
• 1:58:54
  bro. They're going to clean.
• 1:58:55
  Sweep them out here, the one seed.
• 1:58:57
  Get them out. That's my bold.
• 1:58:59
  Prediction for round two. I like that.
• 1:59:02
  I like that and then. Game our our last game here jets
• 1:59:10
  and stars both, you know, aerial based objects of some sort got
• 1:59:20
  to go with I'm going to go with Dallas here.
• 1:59:22
  Like, I honestly thought that just that was such a good
• 1:59:26
  matchup between the ABS and the Stars that whoever came out of
• 1:59:29
  that is going to represent the West and the Cup.
• 1:59:32
  And so I'm going Dallas. Give me Dallas in. 6.
• 1:59:38
  I want to. Go for The Jets here too, man.
• 1:59:41
  I'll go to Dallas in six. They look they they're on a
• 1:59:45
  heater right now. If Winnipeg, let's.
• 1:59:48
  A bunch of games slip, you know we'll see Ichi.
• 1:59:53
  It looks like that's our time, man.
• 1:59:55
