That's lose their star player, they lose their star closer.
0:04
That's are in a bad spot right now.
0:11
I've never seen a Ranger team quick before the Olympics.
0:14
We're going to be looking at Aaron Judge and saying that he
0:17
can't win the big game, Michael Jordan said.
0:19
I played 82 games. You don't see the fun doing
0:22
that, but Jack Hughes did after getting his teeth knocked down
0:25
to play every single shift he got back in the game.
1:29
Hello, you're listening to the New York sports loudmouth.
1:33
Welcome, welcome, welcome. You know who we are.
1:38
I'm wearing my New York Yankee jersey tonight.
1:42
My FIFA26 memorabilia hats could be worth a couple of bucks in
1:48
the future. My name is Errol Marx.
1:50
They call me the Mouth My Co host X New York Jet first round
1:56
draft pick Mr. Quinton Couples. Yes Sir.
1:59
Distinguished gentleman from Keston, North Carolina.
2:02
I don't know about that Great. But everything.
2:04
Don't give him any compliments. Let's go baby.
2:07
And the speedster Speedy PD executive producer.
2:11
You just heard him. Mr. Aaron Fish Fishman on the
2:14
back end. Mr. Knits and our PR manager and
2:16
our new producer Samuel Add he will be joining us moving

2:46
And if anybody doesn't know who we welcome to New York sports
2:50
Loudmouth, the only sports show where hot takes are hotter than
2:54
The Jets quarterback carousel. Some people bring stats.
2:57
I bring chaos, sarcasm and emotional damage.
3:00
Opposing fan bases. My name is Errol Marx, I just
3:04
mentioned that. Proof that surviving New York
3:06
sports should qualify you for a free therapy or something of
3:10
that magnitude. The Knicks got me believing, the
3:13
Yankees got me screaming. And The Jets, well The Jets,
3:18
they got me checking out mock dress every October.
3:21
This show is sponsored by caffeine, bad officiating and
3:25
New York fans yelling at their TV's like coaches can hear us.
3:30
And if being loud about sports was a Hall of Fame category, I'd
3:37
already have a gold jacket and three suspensions.
3:41
Welcome back, everybody. Where every episode feels like
3:45
New York sports fans support group with Wi-Fi.
3:50
Yes, I had to add that. So if you don't know who we are,
3:53
I am a little crazy. And I want to let everybody
3:55
know. Yesterday I had a catastrophe.
3:58
I was eating some pizza and everybody knows I'm getting my,
4:02
I'm getting, you know, caps put in my teeth.
4:05
You know, I played hockey, all right?
4:07
And one of the caps fell out. It was a temporary cap.
4:11
I'm waiting for the good ones to come in and and this guy, all he
4:14
does is laugh. All he has is jokes, making
4:17
jokes. I look like a crack baby.
4:19
All right. I did look like a crack baby
4:21
yesterday. I'm sorry for anybody, if I had
4:23
offends, anybody, but that's what I look like.
4:25
I had like no teeth. It looked really, really bad.
4:28
So I didn't show anybody. I did go to the dentist today.
4:31
I got my temporary put back in. So I have beautiful teeth again.
4:35
Let's see them. Let's see them.
4:36
See, look like I look at these beautiful teeth.
4:38
Look at them. They're temporary.
4:39
They're not my real ones, but the calf should come in, baby.
4:42
The calf caps are coming. Well, I want to let everybody
4:46
know something. Anybody that listens to this
4:48
show, they probably think that I'm crazy.
4:51
And you're probably right. I am probably nuts in a lot of
4:54
different ways. But the way I throw my takes out
4:57
there, it's the reason why New York sports is the best in the
5:00
country. I believe nobody's better than
5:03
what we do out here and and we're in Long Island.
5:06
Nobody considers us New York. Long Island's not New York.
5:10
It's its own identity. Well, ladies and gentlemen, when
5:12
you listen to this show, you know what New York is, you know
5:15
what New York brings. You know what I'm going to bring
5:17
to the table every time you listen to the show.
5:20
I don't care what you think of me.
5:21
You can hate me, love me, or want to kick me in the ass by
5:24
the end of the show. I'm going to make sure that
5:26
you're laughing, I'm going to make sure that you're
5:28
entertained, and I'm going to make sure I'm like one of those
5:30
3 stooges poking you in the eye because that's what I like to
5:32
do. I poke you in the damn eye and
5:35
maybe wake you up or maybe you just want to run out of the
5:37
screen and come back whenever you're interested in watching
5:39
the show again. But nevertheless, I got my
5:42
counter partner who sometime can get a little under my under my
5:47
skin and sometimes thinks he knows more about basketball than
5:50
I do, even though he loses every single bet that we make.
5:54
You didn't you backed out to bet last bit.
5:57
I didn't back out to any bet. You didn't want to bet.
6:00
You didn't want to bet. What was the point?
6:01
I was going to win. There was no reason to.
6:03
You got to. I don't have to bet any bets
6:06
where they go win who don't bet when they go win when I make
6:10
bets. And by the way, where Victor
6:11
Hernandez just gave us a take right there.
6:13
Long Island, we are building. Yes, I agree with you.
6:16
We are Victor. We're building it, baby.
6:19
We're building it. All the brass knuckles are ready
6:21
to be hit. We in the building Hulk poke as
6:25
Mr. Georgia himself jam. That's right, Mr. Jesse, baby
6:30
Jamie, Jamie Lee, by the way, Jamie Lee over there.
6:33
Errol is very crazy. Yes, I am, but he does love me.
6:37
I'm I am his homie. I'm everybody's homie until you
6:39
just get to know me. You probably say, oh man, this
6:41
guy's out of his damn mind, which I am, ladies and
6:44
gentlemen, I am out of my mind. But again, when you watch this
6:47
show, you know that it's not going to be something on WF and
6:50
your ESPN. It's some of that boring crap,
6:52
those boring takes. There it is pizza and there it
6:55
goes pops right out and then I put my tombs.
6:57
Well, first of all, it was a woman, not a man that was doing
6:59
my teeth today, but nevertheless, I did look she she
7:03
kind of thinks I'm sexy. You know my girlfriend doesn't
7:06
really like when she needed to get ass tested.
7:09
Well, what? What do they have to look at
7:11
you, man. What?
7:12
What are what are you calling yourself?
7:13
Ohh, yeah. Snack.
7:15
Yeah. Yes.
7:16
Smack. You're a snack.
7:17
Alright, Course dinner. Yeah, full course dinner.
7:19
You know, you look like I've been told this.
7:21
This ain't me, though. This is what I've been told.
7:23
Yeah, well, somebody told me you look like a wild boar in heat,
7:26
you know? Yeah, That was you.
7:29
They told you you look like a wild boy.
7:30
Yeah. No, that's what they said about
7:32
you. I'm just giving you the take
7:33
that everybody was telling me, you know, I mean, I mean, it's
7:36
Listen, man, I I I give you some credit.
7:38
You take care of yourself. So do I.
7:40
And I, that's why I get caps in my mouth.
7:43
And I look, you know, How do you like my new FIFA hat?
7:46
This is beautiful, right? Nice. 2026 FIFA here in America.
7:51
We're going to have it here in New York.
7:53
Who's getting ready for FIFA 2026?
7:57
I am a little bit, just a little bit.
7:59
I don't want to spend any money. I I heard the train stations and
8:02
all that garbage that's going on.
8:04
You got to pay $100 to get on a train to go to the stadium and
8:07
$100 back, $200 to get on a damn train and you can't even drive
8:11
there. So friends, if you, if, if any
8:13
fans are going to the game, good friggin luck.
8:17
I want to get it to the Knicks because I know all the New York
8:19
Knicks fans are excited, but are they?
8:21
The New York Knicks beat the 76ers in game two, one O 8 to
8:25
one O 2 to take A20 series lead. OG Anobi, Jalen Brunson, Karl
8:31
Anthony, Towns, McHale Bridges all scored 18 + 18 plus points
8:35
or more and both Towns and Bridges shot over 69%.
8:41
The 76ers played close in this game without Joel Embiid.
8:45
I wonder why? Who missed Game 2 with both
8:48
ankle and hip injuries? Tyrese Maxi had 26 points, VJ
8:53
Edgecomb had 17 and both Kelly Oberay and Paul George had 19.
8:59
OJ and Obie suffered a hamstring injury late in the game and
9:02
didn't play in the final two minutes and 56 seconds.
9:07
OG is listed as questionable for Friday's game three match up,
9:11
while there is no official report listed yet for Embiid.
9:16
However, Embiid did miss today's shoot around and Nick Nurse said
9:20
he still has a severe soreness. Well, ladies and gentlemen, if
9:26
you're a New York Knicks fan, you should be excited.
9:28
It, it's beautiful. It, it's, it's wonderful to
9:30
watch. When you watch the New York
9:31
Knicks play in the last six games at a high level, this is
9:35
what you expect. You put this team together.
9:37
Leon Rose and Worldwide W did what they needed to do to put
9:40
this team together to win a championship.
9:42
This team has not won a championship since 1970, 23.
9:45
They have not been in a in a finals since 99, the strike
9:49
year. And maybe they wouldn't have
9:51
made the Finals if the Chicago Bulls and Michael Jordan decided
9:56
to make another run. But we're not talking about what
10:00
happened in the past. We're talking about now.
10:02
Karl Anthony Towns is playing at a high level.
10:05
This is why the Knicks are playing as good as they are.
10:08
I don't know. Everybody's going to give OG
10:09
Ananobi, and he's having a great series and he's done so well
10:12
throughout the playoffs. He's been unbelievable and
10:14
losing him maybe to game three with a hamstring injury is bad.
10:19
But being up two O gives them the opportunity to sit OG
10:22
Ananobi. You have Mikhail Bridges.
10:24
He's a good, good, very good wing defender.
10:27
He can give you that defense if you need Tyrese Maxey being
10:30
defended. Edgecomb is good.
10:33
Obre is Ubre is very good. He can score.
10:36
He's going to give you 1314 points a game.
10:38
We all, we all understand that Edgecomb is a young rookie.
10:41
He's he's starting to figure things out.
10:43
We saw him as Shochin yesterday. At the end of the game, start
10:47
arguing with each other on the sidelines.
10:49
We understand that Sochin is a guy that's going to stick up for
10:51
players and and Edgecomb is is he's got that elite personality.
10:56
I love that about Edgecomb. I thought he was a great young
10:58
prospect coming into the season, but Joellen beat not at 100%,
11:05
only benefits the 76ers. Yeah, let this stick for you
11:09
guys. I know everybody's going to sit
11:10
here and say, well, they don't beat the Celtics without Joellen
11:15
beat. And you might be right, but the
11:17
Celtics don't have a big. I don't care what anybody says.
11:20
I don't care what Quinton Kopos is going to tell you in just a
11:23
few moments because you know he's going to come out and give
11:25
you something that's going to try to stick.
11:26
It's not going to stick. They don't have a big man.
11:29
They don't, but the Knicks do. They have Mitchell Robinson and
11:34
they have Karl Anthony Towns and they have OG and an Obi that can
11:37
get on to you and and be a flee to you all game long.
11:41
And that's the difference in this series.
11:43
You want to you want to make arguments and oh, the 76ers
11:46
could have won this game and the Knicks didn't play as well.
11:48
Well, guess what? I'm going to give you a little
11:50
tip here. Everything in basketball
11:53
involves adjustments, and that's what the 76ers did.
11:56
They had adjustments. Nurse.
11:58
Nick Nurse is not a bad coach. He understands.
12:00
He's won a championship with Toronto.
12:03
He understands how to win championships.
12:06
But here's the facts here. Mike Brown has never won a
12:09
championship as a head coach, but he's won a couple as an
12:13
assistant coach. So he understands how to
12:15
structure a defense, structure an offense that is going to
12:18
pressure you in the fourth quarter.
12:20
And that's what the Knicks did. They made adjustments, and when
12:24
they made the adjustments in the second-half, you saw them pick
12:27
up their offense. Jayla Brunson didn't have one of
12:30
his big games, and we all know OG Ananobi has been the best
12:33
player in this series. It's not even an argument he's
12:35
been the best player in this series.
12:38
But again, the 76ers with all their talent and all their
12:42
offensive prowess, I worry about Paul George.
12:45
I told you guys about Paul George.
12:47
This isn't the Saint Paul George he once was.
12:50
If this was the Paul George that played in Indiana, what if this
12:54
was the Paul George that played over there in OK C for a little
12:57
bit, then this this series could be different.
13:02
Paul George is not that playing anymore.
13:04
He's getting overpaid. He's being overused.
13:08
He's not 100%. That's why he was taking
13:10
steroids. That's why he was suspended for
13:12
25 games. We all understand how this team
13:15
is. They're not as good as the
13:18
Knicks are. When the Knicks play with all
13:20
firepower, when they're getting their bench and and having their
13:23
bench, Jose Alvarado and McBride and all these guys are giving
13:26
you that kind of offense and they're giving you that
13:28
explosion. When that happens, guys, they're
13:31
the Knicks are almost unbeatable.
13:33
You could say whatever you want. Everybody says watch out for
13:35
OKC, watch out for the Spurs. The the Knicks know what they
13:38
did against the Spurs this year. We watched the Cup championship.
13:42
We saw what the Knicks did against Webbingyama.
13:44
They had problems against OKC and a lot of people are worried
13:47
about OKC. We don't even know if OKC is
13:49
going to the Finals this year. They still have to go through
13:52
possibly the Timberwolves or the Spurs.
13:56
Then they still have to go through the Lakers.
13:58
The Knicks right now in the Eastern Conference, I'm not
14:01
worried about Detroit, I'm not worried about the Cavs and I'm
14:06
definitely not worried about the 76ers.
14:08
Even if OG and Anobi doesn't play for one or two games.
14:11
Because even if they tie this series, I still have a Knick
14:15
team that is better all around as far as I'm I'm concerned when
14:19
it comes to talent, all around talent than any one of these
14:22
teams. And again, Joel Embiid, if he
14:25
plays or he doesn't, he slows up the pace of the game.
14:30
And you can see when he's not in the game, the pace is faster and
14:34
it's harder for the Knicks to defend.
14:36
And you can see that Kelly Oprey, he moves the ball.
14:38
He likes to go up and he likes to he likes to drive and use use
14:42
his power and his and his ability to get to the hole on
14:45
going, going to the right. He doesn't really go to the left
14:48
when he goes to the right and he gets he goes up there, he draws
14:51
fouls. He's a good offensive player,
14:53
but he's not an elite offensive player.
14:55
And the only elite offensive player on this roster is Maxi.
14:58
The Knicks have two of them and when O GS playing like that,
15:02
it's three of them. That's almost impossible to
15:06
beat. I'm sorry.
15:07
When you have three guys, four guys scoring over 18 or more
15:11
points, good luck. Good luck.
15:14
If you look at talented teams, you look at top end championship
15:18
teams. Let's go back when we look at
15:20
the Cavaliers when they have LeBron James, Kyrie Irving and
15:23
Kevin Love. LeBron would score 30, Kyrie
15:26
would score about 2223 and Kevin Love would score 18.
15:29
That's three guys, three guys. You go to the LeBron James,
15:32
Miami team, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James.
15:35
LeBron will score 32, Dwayne will score 27, and Chris Bosh
15:39
will score 18 or 17. That's three guys.
15:41
Then they have Ray Allen who'll give you 13 or 14 and hit an
15:44
open 3 pointer. That's what he did.
15:47
But when you look in the elite teams, when you have 4 guys,
15:50
five guys doing this, it's impossible to beat.
15:53
Impossible. You can argue your points, you
15:56
could say whatever you want. You're going to want to punch me
15:58
in the mouth when I say this. When the Knicks play at this
16:01
level, they're almost unbeatable, speedy.
16:04
You know this. We've watched the Knicks for a
16:06
long, long time. This Knick team is completely
16:08
different, completely different from those Knick teams with the
16:12
John Starks, the Patrick Ewings, the Charles Oakley's, the Larry
16:16
Johnsons, the Alan Houston's, the Chris Child's who's been on
16:20
the show, his Friend of the show, all those guys.
16:23
None of those teams have this kind of talent.
16:26
And when the Knicks use their size and they have Mitchell
16:28
Robinson playing at a high level, defending at a high
16:31
level, good. Friggin luck.
16:34
Yeah, this is definitely the depth team that Trump's all when
16:37
it comes to Trump's. Yeah, I like that.
16:39
When it comes to the 70s championship teams, when it
16:42
comes to the 90s, they definitely had the identity
16:44
defensively in the 90s. But this team has a defensive
16:46
identity, too. That's very good, especially on
16:47
the perimeter. And like you said, Mitchell
16:49
Robinson, when he is healthy, is among the best big man defenders
16:52
in the league. And you're now seeing that with
16:54
combinations too that you wouldn't have seen in other
16:57
years with the Knicks. I think depth wise, when you
17:00
look at Alvarado coming off the bench, being a great defender
17:03
and then a three-point guy as well, good off the bench.
17:06
And you look at the depth contributions they had with
17:08
their veteran players. When you look at somebody like
17:10
Clarkson and even 99 and 10 in the rotation, you saw how poor
17:15
to get some minutes yesterday as well.
17:16
You saw you've seen Landry Shamak at fourth quarter minutes
17:19
when the Knicks pulled ahead and Shamak obviously played very
17:22
well last year as well. This is the Knicks team that has
17:24
depth galore to overcome that kind of thing.
17:26
Two years ago when OG Ananobi got hurt in the Pacer series, I
17:29
believe it was in Game 4, the Knicks really never recovered
17:32
from that because OG besides Jalen Bronson, he was our next
17:34
best playoff player and offensively he was showing up,
17:37
but he defensively, especially the Pacers were able to cook
17:40
when he was absent in that line up in Game 4 is.
17:43
Anybody hungry and stay away from pizza?
17:46
Yeah, pop your teeth out. Yeah.
17:48
And and I think now I think they have the depth to overcome that
17:50
too. When you have Alvarado that can
17:52
be a perimeter defender, you can use bridges in that kind of role
17:54
and heart in that kind of role. And you've gotten them
17:57
comfortable in just playing the one system and now they can play
18:00
the 2-3 and the four. Now Ogi think is the most
18:02
versatile, versatile obviously the bunch, but this is a core
18:06
now that you could play in many different positions where I
18:08
think now that OG fish, we were talking about it earlier, they
18:12
could have leeway to rest him if they need to for game 3.
18:14
So he gets healthy for game four and if they win game 3 then he's
18:17
even more healthy. Nobody gets healthy when it
18:19
comes to hamstring. OG is going to have this all
18:22
series long, all playoff long. So what?
18:25
What the Knicks need to really do in this series is end this
18:27
series as quick as they possibly can to give OG and Anobi at
18:30
least a week, week and a half to rest that hamstring.
18:33
The longer this series goes, the longer you're going to worry
18:37
about OG and Nanobi not playing in the next series or maybe
18:39
maybe not even playing for the rest of the playoffs.
18:42
This has happened to OG and Nanobi a couple of years ago and
18:45
I I don't know if it was the 76ers or it was in Indiana when
18:49
this happened. He heard his hamstring.
18:50
He was done. He was done for the playoffs.
18:53
You do not want OG and Anobi to be done.
18:56
He is your best wing defender. He's one of the best in the
18:58
league. I'm not saying that Kale Bridges
19:00
can't handle the workload, but he is not OG and Anobi.
19:04
He can't take over a game like OG and Anobi has done throughout
19:07
this series. To me, this is a this is a bad
19:09
injury. I would have rathered even maybe
19:12
call Anthony Towns going down with a hamstring.
19:14
That's crazy. No, it isn't.
19:16
No, it's not. No, it's not.
19:18
You just big the band up of the the next way this way due to cat
19:23
play. And then you say you would have
19:24
rather he'll be hurt than OG. That is insane.
19:28
That's insane. You want me to give you a reason
19:29
why you want me to throw you a curveball here?
19:32
Here's here's the problem. Wing offense, especially in this
19:36
series, is at a it's at a premium.
19:39
They're getting it from Maxi and Obre.
19:41
When you have guys like Mikhail Bridges, Jose Alvarado and OG
19:47
Anobi, you have OG taking a guy like Tyrese Maxi.
19:50
Tyrese Maxi scored 26 points in the last game and OG Anobi, he
19:54
scored like 6 or 7 points in the last what, 3 minutes or two
19:58
minutes? When OG and an Obi missed the
20:00
last two minutes and 56 seconds, he was the go to guy.
20:04
When OG was playing he was shutting him down.
20:06
And when you lose a guy like that who can defend wing
20:10
players, Yeah, go look at the numbers, you can see it.
20:13
Maxi. Maxi yes, I just told you OG and
20:18
an Obi when he got pulled out of the game with three minutes
20:20
left. OG and Nanobi Maxi scored the
20:23
last, I think 8 of the last six points that the 76ers scored.
20:28
OK, 20 points. So he had 20 yes, that's that's
20:30
shutting down an elite offender. That's going to give you 30 to
20:34
32 points. He averaged about 30 points a
20:36
game this season. When you get on a great wing
20:39
defender as good as OG and Nanobi and he could shut you
20:41
down 19 to 20 points. To me, that's an elite defender.
20:44
Yes, Michael Jordan and everybody around is Michael
20:47
Jordan. When he played the elite
20:49
players, when Michael Jordan would shut them down to 19 to 20
20:52
points, that's elite defense. Go look at back at the the great
20:56
teams that Michael Jordan played in the playoffs and throughout
20:59
the season. When Michael Jordan, Michael
21:01
Jordan was the best defender in the league for six or seven
21:05
years and nobody even remembers that he was and he stopped the
21:09
best guard or two guard on every other team and he would shut him
21:12
down to 19/18/20 points. And if you have that, you have
21:16
that. That's a privilege.
21:17
Carl Anthony Town's a great player.
21:19
He's a good offensive player. He's going to give you 20, 10:00
21:22
and 7:00. That's what he's going to give
21:23
you. You can get that from your
21:24
bench. You have Sochen is going to give
21:26
you. If he's playing, he's going to
21:28
get 8 or 9 rebounds. You can shake your head all you
21:29
want. He did it when he did play.
21:31
Say whatever, Mitchell Robinson, Mitchell Robinson can give you
21:35
10 rebounds. Mitchell Robinson can give you 3
21:37
blocks. You have it.
21:38
You don't have anybody to replace OG and Anobi.
21:41
You can shake your head, do your little tassel dance.
21:44
You know what I'm telling? You said that it doesn't want to
21:47
say we can't nobody replace. Nobody can play replace OG,
21:51
nobody. So that same bitch that can give
21:53
you 20108 can't give you 2010 and eight when OG's down.
21:57
I'm telling you right now, telling OG's giving you 24
22:01
points, OG's giving you about 8 rebounds, 7 rebounds, and he's
22:04
giving you about four assists. He's giving you the offense and
22:07
he's giving you shut down defense.
22:09
Carl Anthony Towns is not doing that and the bitch can't do
22:12
that. And Carl Anthony Town can't give
22:14
you. I'm telling you right now, if
22:15
you were to ask anybody right now, if you go to 10 Nick fans
22:18
right now who's I don't want to go to.
22:20
Yeah, that's fine. Because you're you're you're a
22:23
fake Knick fan. You said, y'all, I'm a Celtic
22:25
fan and I'm a Knick fan. You're not pulling for.
22:27
Yeah, Yeah, you're pulling for him.
22:28
You're not pulling for him because you had you had the
22:30
76ers winning this series, buddy.
22:33
I said they were a better team on paper.
22:35
No, they're not. OK.
22:36
They're not. And then I said I have the
22:38
Knicks pulling this out. They're not.
22:40
That's why I know. Well, you said, listen, I don't
22:43
care what here's what you're going to say.
22:45
You're going to try to beat around the Bush.
22:47
You also have the Celtics beating the 76ers, which you
22:49
were wrong about that and you and you go out there and you
22:51
throw you try to throw curve balls and you hope that you're
22:54
going to hit a home run, but you never hit a home run.
22:56
You hit a line drive and I catch it right on the warning check.
23:00
So here's the facts for all you fans out here that listens to
23:03
the show. I love quit que.
23:05
I call him Quinton. You can call him whatever you
23:07
want. I do whatever call him que
23:09
Kubert, whatever you want to call him.
23:10
Call him whatever you want. I don't care what you call him.
23:14
Here's the facts, buddy. Every time we go back and forth
23:18
and argue something and we're trying to make our points.
23:20
You are mostly wrong about what you're saying when it comes to
23:23
basketball, and I'm going to tell you this right now.
23:25
You asked 10 Knick fans right now who would you rather lose,
23:30
Karl Anthony Towns or OG and Anobi.
23:32
I would probably bet you 8 out of the 10 would tell you I would
23:36
rather lose Karl Anthony Towns and OG and Anobi.
23:38
And that's what I'm saying. That's how you just switched up
23:40
the whole thing. You say if Karl Anthony Towns go
23:43
down that the bench can come off and give you Karl Anthony Town
23:46
absolutely you. Then you turn around, Absolutely
23:49
that that same bitch can't give you those same production When
23:53
OG, when OG go down, they can't not defensively, not
23:57
defensively, not defensively, not defensively, not
24:02
defensively. I'm going to tell you.
24:04
I'll tell you what, I'll tell you what.
24:06
If OG does not play, yeah, on Friday and Knicks still win,
24:12
they're not winning. They're not winning tomorrow.
24:14
They're not winning. I'm going to put it, you want to
24:16
bet? You want to bet the 70?
24:17
I bet you. The 76ers win tomorrow.
24:19
I bet you if OG doesn't play tomorrow.
24:21
And here's here's another bet. Here's another bet.
24:23
Maxi scores over 28 points. Easy, easy. 28 points if OG and
24:28
Opie does not play tomorrow and you can you can say whatever you
24:31
want. It's a these are facts.
24:33
Throw it. You want to hit it, you want to
24:34
play wiffle ball, you'll probably strike out every single
24:36
time I throw you the ball. A curveball is coming, baby.
24:40
Trevor Bauer, Bauer, our baby. I'm just telling you, you'll
24:44
make a bet. What's Vegas put?
24:45
They know I don't have to make Listen, I don't have to look at
24:48
Vegas. I don't have to look at MGM.
24:50
I'm telling you right now, OG doesn't play.
24:52
The Knicks lose and Maxi scores over 28 points.
24:56
The 70 sisters are done. They'd have nothing left to
24:58
give. I remember you said that they
25:00
gave everything to the Celtics. OK, then this is going to
25:03
continue to play their game, keep playing through Cat and win
25:06
the ball game. The game that they were supposed
25:08
to win was Game 2. Everybody on 76th side was in
25:12
double figures. That was the game they were
25:13
supposed to do. They didn't do it.
25:15
They turned the ball over and lost the game.
25:17
So what do you think is going to magically happen when they get
25:20
to Philly? That's going to give them the
25:21
edge over door over what? New York has been consistently
25:24
doing nothing. They don't have any answers.
25:27
They gave everything to the Celtics and that's the issue
25:30
they have. They're done.
25:31
Are you watching? Are you watching the games?
25:34
Yes. That's what I'm trying to tell.
25:35
Are you really? Because yeah, I I don't know if
25:37
you are. I don't know if you I'm telling
25:39
you right now, if you want them to win to next game, you going
25:43
to tell me? I'm not watching the game.
25:44
You're not you're not the best, the best player.
25:48
If your whole starter crew is in double figures, what are the
25:52
what is the percentage that you lose that game?
25:55
OK, you don't know. No, I'm not gonna answer you
25:57
because every time I talk you cut me off increases if your
26:00
whole starter. OK, if everyone of your starters
26:02
in double figures. How much you want to bet?
26:05
How much you want to bet? How much you want to bet Big
26:07
mouth. How much you want to bet?
26:09
You want to you want to throw some curveballs?
26:11
How much you want to bet? If OG and Anobi doesn't play
26:13
tomorrow, then H lose and Maxi scores over 28.
26:16
How much you want to bet? How much I'm gonna bet You right
26:19
now? Make a bet.
26:20
Make a bet. You'll lose.
26:22
You'll lose. I wouldn't probably take it
26:25
because you know OG was guarding the bigs in that game because
26:28
everyone was in foul trouble. That was all Bridges covering
26:31
him 90 plus feet. Make a bet.
26:35
Make a bet. Make a bet, monster, Make a bet.
26:39
Amazing. Passing lanes.
26:42
You know what I'm saying? He's amazing.
26:43
The passing lanes, please. Mikhail really gave him trouble,
26:46
and it really wasn't. You're right, he scored.
26:49
But what happened in the fourth quarter, the last 6 minutes of
26:51
the Game, 6 1/2 minutes of the game, they shut them down
26:54
completely. The Knicks just turned it up to
26:56
that extra level you need to have in the playoffs.
26:59
And I love watching it, man. I love watching.
27:01
Without OG, though, It's a problem.
27:04
And Speedy, we were talking about it, you mentioned a second
27:06
ago. Do you sit OG in this game
27:09
three? Because if you think about it,
27:11
it's unlikely, unlikely you're going to sweep this team.
27:14
They're going to come out with everything they have.
27:16
It's unlikely to sweep a team as good as them on paper, right?
27:19
I'm just saying, just saying you normally you wouldn't want to go
27:24
down 3 O. You can't.
27:25
Go down 3 O, right Q they're coming out with well, because
27:28
you're never, you're never going to win if you're down 3 O.
27:31
Definitely. You see how just.
27:32
Bear with me for a second. Don't you think they're going to
27:34
come out Philly with everything they got left in game three as
27:38
opposed to game four if they're going?
27:40
To at all yes, I know ideally that would be the tradition of
27:47
an NBA playoff game, but when you look at the game, they don't
27:50
have nothing They're going to throw Joel and beat out there
27:53
that's going to mess up the chemistry in the flow.
27:55
If he's able to play a game, he's not going to play finna get
27:57
these beta files that he got. OK, so he's not going to play
28:00
all right, so he's not going to be able to get the beta files
28:02
that he was getting in the Celtic series.
28:04
So they don't have another answer.
28:06
Paul George shooting like 5 seconds or with 10 seconds left
28:09
on the clock. They're discombobulated.
28:12
They're not giving us nothing. They're going to come out here
28:16
and turn it on. On game three-game 2 was the
28:19
game they were supposed to win. That was the game.
28:22
The Knicks gave them that opportunity to win that game and
28:25
they couldn't close it. They started turning the ball
28:26
over and and the Knicks went up and they won the game.
28:29
So I don't understand why we feel like now all of a sudden
28:32
Philly going to say, somebody know what?
28:34
I can play basketball. That's not what's going to
28:37
happen. Somebody just think we.
28:39
Need OG for the stretch run and if it would be.
28:42
Great. Yeah, it would be great.
28:43
I'm just. Saying as like a long term
28:44
thing, Errol, what do you think? If you sit him game 3 and you
28:47
win anyway, then you definitely don't play him game four and now
28:50
maybe you get a lot of rest for him going into the series that
28:54
actually matters. I might want to sit him game
28:57
three, especially if Imbeds not playing.
28:59
Maybe you can get away with it. Probably game 3 is going to be
29:02
hard to win anyway. They're going to come out with
29:04
whatever they got left. Maybe you just see if you can
29:07
win and then if you are up three, you can kind of really
29:10
try to rest this guy. You know, you know, hope that
29:13
you can get it done quick. You know I've.
29:15
Been arguing this since the show last week and I said when the
29:19
76ers were going to match up with the Knicks, it was going to
29:22
go 5. And I know, I know going into
29:25
Philadelphia, the crowds going to be crazy.
29:27
The Knicks fans are not going to pour in as much as they were the
29:29
last time. Everybody says, oh, because we
29:32
all know that the Philadelphia fans and the Philadelphia
29:34
ownership is going to do whatever they can to keep the
29:36
Knick fans as far away from the the the floor.
29:40
And right now, what we've seen in the past, I'm going to tell
29:43
you this right now, the Knicks are not going to win tomorrow if
29:46
OG and Anobi doesn't play. I'm telling you that you could
29:48
say whatever you want. They're not winning tomorrow.
29:51
And I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings.
29:53
I'm telling you factual information.
29:55
You look at the Knicks and what the Knicks have done with OG and
29:58
Anobi in the lineup. They're much better defensively.
30:02
They're much better offensively. And what OG and Anobi does that
30:05
people do not see is obvious that obviously not to cube
30:09
excuse a little blind, but I'll help him out.
30:11
I'll get him some glasses. I'll do whatever he wants, you
30:14
know, I'll cook him some breakfast, lunch and dinner no
30:17
matter what. No matter what, there's nothing
30:20
that you can tell me or you could tell to me right now that
30:22
Tyrese Maxi isn't going to score over 28 points tomorrow because
30:25
I believe he will. And and there's nothing that
30:27
tells me right now if OG and Nanobi doesn't play that the
30:29
Knicks are going to lose. He is as important as any player
30:32
on this roster, more important than Jaylen Bronson is right
30:34
now. Say whatever you want, he is.
30:36
Look at what he does. You guys, I don't know what you
30:39
not see. The guy does everything.
30:42
You going to tell me right now OG and Nanobi has not been the
30:45
best overall player That what I said.
30:47
You see how you just twist all our word, but he is never say OG
30:50
wasn't. He is the best player overall on
30:53
this nick team. There's no argument to that.
30:55
He plays defense at a high level.
30:57
He's offensively gifted as we can see right now.
31:00
He can go to the whole drawer fouls.
31:01
He's been very good at that. He rebounds the ball at a high
31:04
level, he blocks, he defends. He's got big ass hands.
31:07
God knows Q doesn't have big hands and if he does, he
31:09
probably hasn't in him pants. But anyways, this guy, listen,
31:15
I'm just trying to help you here because that's what sometimes I
31:18
want. Brittany's at work, baby.
31:21
She's at, She's nursing, man. She's a nurse.
31:24
She might be doing that for somebody else tonight, No?
31:27
Nathan, it's not you. But here's the facts for all you
31:34
Knick fans out here. Put a smile on your face.
31:37
The Knicks are up two O you saw a Kardashian run on the floor
31:41
woods walking on the floor happy go lucky Karl Anthony towns
31:45
jumping for joy. I've never seen him.
31:47
He probably he probably had he probably had an orgasm.
31:53
He had an orgasm. That's what he probably had
31:55
after the game. I mean he was very excited.
31:57
I've never seen smile that much in my life and then after he was
31:59
interviewed by the media. I mean he was even more
32:02
orgasmic. I I mean, fact here is I look at
32:06
this Knick team, this you can't, you cannot not win this series.
32:10
If you don't win this series, I you're the better team, you're
32:14
the better team at and but here's that worries.
32:17
This is what worries me for all the Knick fans out there that
32:20
that are watching the game. It worries me when I believe the
32:24
most important player on your roster.
32:26
And and this is this is truth. OG and Anobi years ago.
32:31
It was it 2 years ago when they were making their run.
32:33
He had a hamstring problem against the Pacers in Game 4.
32:35
I believe it was when he, when he.
32:37
Went down that series was over when he went down that series
32:40
was over. And to me he has as important as
32:45
Jalen Bronson is to that roster, the two most important players
32:48
on that roster. You can give Karl Anthony Towns
32:50
all the credit to triple double S dancing around.
32:53
He doesn't do what OJ and Anobi he he plays as hard as any
32:57
player on this roster. When you lose a player like that
33:00
to a hamstring, and I'm telling you this right now, it's not
33:03
what the Knicks are saying. This is a bad hamstring problem.
33:06
He's had this problem all season long.
33:08
It's lingered. You don't watch the Knick games
33:10
like I do. I'm just saying, you go just
33:12
tell the medical staff who working with him.
33:14
You don't know what you're talking about.
33:15
Like way worse than what it is. I believe that Knicks medical
33:18
staff. I do not.
33:19
Trust. The Knicks medical staff, 100%.
33:23
How many times have we've seen this before?
33:25
The same medical staff? No, I don't trust.
33:27
It's the healthiest he's ever. Been this year, Errol.
33:30
Like, he's good, Good to the season.
33:32
Good, No. Oh.
33:34
Really. I look at the medical staff.
33:36
Yes and I see what the medical staff he grabbed it he.
33:39
Continued with the play and got a dunk on the play and continued
33:42
on the defense and then. Asked to come out you.
33:44
Know what I'm saying? Like it doesn't look like he
33:46
tore it off the bone. I would say that it's something
33:49
that's going to be a you're right, it's a nagging thing.
33:51
But again, how do you manage it is going to be important.
33:55
But luckily the Knicks have great depth.
33:56
The Knicks can get by with this bench that they got no the wing.
34:00
Perimeter down, the Knicks were not.
34:02
At full strength last night or two night was it last night the
34:05
Knicks, we're not full strength. Mitchell Robinson didn't play in
34:07
this game. So Mitchell Robinson, so this is
34:10
what you're selling? For all the fans out there, for
34:12
all the fans watching us or going to be listening to the
34:15
replay of this show, they're going to sit there and say,
34:17
well, you know, O GS been healthy all season long, but we
34:21
trust this medical staff because they're so good after all the
34:25
years the same the same freaking medical staff that's been there
34:29
for three years that has screwed up.
34:31
As a matter of fact, they were rated two years ago as the worst
34:34
medical staff in basketball. OK, and we're going to sit there
34:38
and say, Oh my God, we trust the medical staff.
34:40
Get out of here. You guys are on drugs.
34:44
I don't care if you trust them. You don't have to trust me.
34:49
I'm. Telling you facts, you.
34:51
I'm going to tell you a curveball.
34:52
I'm going to throw you a curveball.
34:54
When you lose this bet tomorrow, make the bet.
34:57
Make the bet because you're going to lose.
34:58
Just the people who lose, lose. That's what you're going to do.
35:02
You're going to lose. It's OK.
35:04
I'm going to help you out. I'll fish it to you.
35:06
I'll fish it to you. I'll give you a parlay.
35:08
OK, I'll give you a parlay and you'll still lose.
35:10
Parlay is at the end of the show.
35:11
I'll give you a parlay earlier tonight.
35:14
And you'll still. Lose and you'll still lose.
35:17
All right, I'll give you whatever you want.
35:19
Pick a parlay and you'll still lose.
35:21
You'll still lose, all right? You can think about it.
35:24
You can think about it. I've got Maxi scoring over 28
35:27
points and the 76ers winning. If OG Ananobi doesn't play, All
35:30
right, you can bank that. Bank it for all the fans out
35:34
there. Anybody wants to throw out a
35:35
curve and want to bet me, I am all in on it.
35:38
And I'm gonna tell you guys because when Vegas get out and
35:40
say Max is gonna all in on it, OK, He's got 28 and a half, 28
35:45
1/2. Then it's like there's no
35:46
question. If no, when?
35:47
Vegas say 20. Four, he going back out.
35:49
He's just saying that no, but not you remember whatever Vegas
35:51
has. And then Vegas said 10 and he
35:54
said, oh, 10 plus easy, 10 plus easy.
35:57
But when he said 18 before the biggest bet, don't worry.
36:00
Q Oh, my God. Let's cry.
36:08
I got some sweat for you. You want me to wipe it all over
36:10
inside sources too? Yeah, I.
36:13
Got some sweat? For you, I can, I can play it
36:15
like it's tears because you're going to have 28, don't worry,
36:18
say 25, he'll be over 25. Your 66 frame, your £250 frame
36:26
is not going to scare me, buddy. I'm throwing you on and you can
36:29
make fun and you can make jokes. Anytime you want to make a bet,
36:33
I'm here. I'm right here and I'm OK
36:35
because I'm going to win. I'm very confident I'm going to
36:39
win. So I don't know.
36:42
Q That's a good. Bet look, think they got
36:44
Alvarado they can throw at them bridges that they we know
36:46
they're going to throw at them. Josh Hart they could throw at
36:49
them. They're just going to have
36:50
bodies on maxi the rest of this game, especially if it doesn't
36:54
play, I don't know, 20 it's going to be tough.
36:56
I'm cool with that, but what I'm saying?
36:58
Is he's going to watch and then he's going to say later on the
37:00
show speedy fish what is what is Vegas and then y'all going to
37:03
say Vegas got him at 25 1/2 and he's going to say I told you
37:07
right now told you right breaking.
37:09
News. Breaking news.
37:13
I knew that they called me the lady over 25.
37:15
I told you breaking news, he said.
37:18
Say he I got to go back off. Not breaking news.
37:21
I needed somebody. It's literally you're never
37:24
answering my question. 27 1/2. It's 27 1/2, so 28 is literally
37:30
the bet you would make. I wish so.
37:36
Over on. Come on, 27 1/2.
37:38
Come on, buddy, Errol's saying 28 or more.
37:40
Put your money where your mouth is.
37:42
Go under Q put. Your money where your mouth.
37:44
Is under 28. 27 1/2 I'm not going to bet tonight like he.
37:48
Did, but don't worry. Don't worry.
37:51
Oh, that's the right to state where you when you fold it.
37:53
Don't want to bet now it's a baby.
37:55
I like it. I like it.
37:58
I'm going to put the baby to sleep.
37:59
If I had a little baby and put Nathan, put Nathan's face on it,
38:03
could you imagine that? Like put him to sleep, put him
38:05
to sleep. The better graphic might be the.
38:06
One to create 1 of Brawny James but.
38:10
Yum Yum. It was a good we should talk.
38:13
About Cat, a little bit about the game that he had because it
38:15
was like a traditional Cat game where he does things that make
38:19
you want to like punches, punch the wall first half.
38:22
He gets circle dirt fouls, gets into foul trouble.
38:25
He's not. He does things that you know he
38:27
shouldn't. They didn't have Mitchell
38:28
Robinson. Hakorti came in and got into
38:30
even worse foul trouble. OG had to play small ball 5 in
38:33
that game. Squeeze the teeth.
38:36
You don't want that I. Don't.
38:37
I'm not saying that's why OG got hurt because he had to do a
38:39
little extra, you know, physicality, but you don't want
38:42
to have to do that to your guys. Playing a party at the time was.
38:45
The right thing to do? You want.
38:46
No, of course you want but. Hakorti got 4 fouls in 1/2.
38:49
Yeah, you know what I mean? He played like 8-8 to 10 minutes
38:52
and he got 4 fouls, so they weren't really ready for that.
38:55
And look, that happens. But then Cat came back and he
38:58
eventually put up 2010 and seven.
39:00
His cat is doing this thing, which is just I we've never seen
39:04
him do it. Until A-Team solves what they're
39:07
doing, they haven't lost yet. With them playing through cat as
39:11
this point center where he is now facilitating the offense,
39:14
they haven't lost. They have won five straight
39:16
games in the playoffs. Listener playing like this, I
39:19
don't have to listen. Anything I'm telling, I'm
39:21
telling you right now they're losing tomorrow if OG doesn't
39:23
play 27 1/2 queue. Thank you.
39:27
Yeah, it's crazy that he he refused.
39:29
Come on, come on. Then leave the show and say I'll
39:32
Rock You to sleep. We're playing through a Rock You
39:35
to sleep, buddy. But the minute you bring up his
39:37
stats, he's like, I'm telling you right now, this are done
39:40
without OG. It's OK.
39:41
They're done. It's OK, dude, it's OK.
39:43
It's OK. Little bit.
39:44
Little bit had a nerve that sorry.
39:46
I'm sorry. The mix Kato Ford to lose this
39:48
this series. What are you watching?
39:51
I'm sorry. Are you OK?
39:52
You need some help? What are you want me to help you
39:54
out? Can I can I ask you a?
39:55
Question, though, Q Do you think your boy Kato could have stopped
39:59
any of this stuff the Knicks were doing after watching it the
40:01
last couple of games? Yes, he would have played.
40:03
He would have. Fared better with Cat than than
40:06
than Oh Joe Ella B Why? Because Cat would have shot
40:10
those threes that we was trying that I was telling y'all so that
40:14
we should have forced Joel on the beat to do.
40:16
The reason why, you know, he got off was because we were playing
40:19
drop covers defense. That means he was playing.
40:21
He was giving him the mid range. He's 7 foot.
40:24
All you got, it's a beach ball. You just throw the ball in
40:26
there. But if you would have pushed him
40:28
out five feet more and made him keep shooting threes that he was
40:31
missing already, it would have been a different it would have
40:33
been a different game. And furthermore, we we beat
40:35
ourselves. Not really, because Paul George
40:36
would have. Had many threes of his Joel and
40:38
Beat. Don't worry, ladies and
40:40
gentlemen. That take is available on
40:42
Amazon. It's available on Amazon right
40:45
now, but guess what? Nobody's buying it.
40:47
Nobody's buying it, including me.
40:50
I am not going to go. No, I've let you speak.
40:53
It's garbage. It is garbage.
40:58
I've heard it and it's garbage. That's it.
41:01
So I'm going to sell that to Amazon and nobody's going to
41:03
buy. Well, Errol Marsh is is a genius
41:06
because he just, I am his. I am a genius.
41:09
That could be what I was. Implying was the volume of Paul
41:12
George threes yesterday where he did very well.
41:14
It's not going to happen if M beads in the game though.
41:16
True No. No.
41:18
Oh yeah, Yeah. But I'm talking about that was
41:20
playing us and and then we were just saying Joe and Bead.
41:23
Yeah, I'm saying that we would have shot there.
41:24
He would have kept missing those threes and then it gives us a
41:27
better. But here's the thing though.
41:28
Q He's not going to shoot the three now that they're playing
41:31
like this. He's going to find the cutter.
41:32
He's going to find the guy open, I think.
41:34
I think it's. No, but I think it's changed now
41:37
because Jenny Brown and everybody had been talking about
41:40
how he'd been flopping and getting fouls.
41:41
And so I believe we're playing with the niche.
41:43
They're not going to give him half of the calls that it was
41:45
giving him in the first years, I mean.
41:47
Which makes a whole difference. So now he got to actually be a
41:50
big man, which and we know that ain't going.
41:52
Oh, so hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.
41:56
So wait a second. You just were speaking about
41:59
Joel Embiid and flopping and that's exactly what we were
42:02
talking about SGA and SGA who does more flopping than anybody
42:07
in the league and gets all the calls and you sit here.
42:09
Oh, wait a second, oh, wait a second, oh wait a second.
42:12
That doesn't happen. He's so great.
42:14
He's the MVP of the league. Let's jump for joy as he doesn't
42:17
even lead in the offensive side of the ball.
42:19
So you're going to sit here and you're going to tell me Joellen
42:21
Beat is the reason why they won't get the hell out of here?
42:24
You are on drugs, go smoking, go jerk off and do whatever the
42:28
hell you do in your spare time. You're turning pink.
42:30
You're turning pink ridiculous. All right, so here's the
42:33
difference for the for the for the guy that's the esper and
42:36
everything. Hey, SGA is getting these fouls
42:41
by making them put that what we call the cookie jar all right,
42:43
when they get rid of shoot and you put your head in there right
42:45
and you're the knucker those fouls or whatever, all right,
42:48
and he's drawing these fouls and B would sit there and catch the
42:52
ball and flop over the floor and make it seem like somebody
42:55
football attacking them out there and the reference would
42:57
call them, which is a whole different thing.
42:59
So it's a different between skill set and throwing the foul
43:02
and just flopping all over the floor because somebody that's
43:05
7172300 pounds and there's somebody that sits 86 now I come
43:10
and just tap you on your arm. You mentioned my all over the
43:13
place. You didn't somebody do this
43:14
Cata? Too.
43:14
And they didn't call Flagrance. I'm itching all over my body.
43:18
Because I have ants in my pants. Because I this is crap.
43:20
Listen, I'm going to talk and I'm going to speed.
43:23
I'm talking off because we're talking about I I have reasons
43:27
behind everything. You sit here and you'll let
43:29
Speedy talk because he's because he's going to agree with you.
43:32
I don't care what he agrees with.
43:34
It's crap. It's the fact here.
43:37
It. What do you mean?
43:37
I don't let him talk. I let you talk all your crap on
43:40
this. It's all garbage.
43:41
It's garbage. It's wrong.
43:43
It's wrong. Make the bet.
43:45
Make the bet. Put your money away.
43:47
Put your money where your mouth is.
43:49
Put your money where your mouth is.
43:51
I'm putting it. The Knicks lose tomorrow because
43:53
you're not listening to. Michael Bolden to get pumped.
43:55
That's right. And at least.
43:57
I can listen to something, at least something pumps me up.
43:59
I don't know what pumps you guys up.
44:01
Maybe a nice little pump for your little field head over
44:04
here. That's it.
44:05
That's right. I have a like a nice little boom
44:07
box. I'm like, hey, listen, I'm all
44:09
about the, I'm all about the 80s.
44:11
I'm not going to sit here and I'm listening to this crap.
44:13
Make the bet. If you're not going to make the
44:15
bet, go cry. Go cry.
44:17
And I was, I was saying didn't. Katie have a call against him
44:20
too, like the same one as MB did in that Celtic series, and then
44:23
they call a flavor. Unnecessary yeah they they they
44:27
referee that hard but I'm getting sometimes it goes but
44:30
you can get away with it but not every not for the majority that
44:33
should be you know a 6040 type situation keep him beat on the.
44:37
Bench. That dude plays dirty when he's
44:39
losing. I'll never forget what he did to
44:41
Mitchell Robinson a couple of years ago.
44:43
You were talking about that Indiana series that OG got hurt.
44:45
Well, they didn't have Mitchell Robinson in that series because
44:47
Embiid intentionally hurt him when he had a bad foot all year,
44:50
pulled out his foot on a rebound as a beat was falling on the
44:53
floor, and they didn't have Jalen Bronson.
44:56
Either well. Bronson got hurt in the last
44:58
game of all that, but they all got hurt.
44:59
But Hart got like a like an intercostal muscle thing that he
45:03
tried to play through. Every single one of those guys,
45:05
Dante, Ginger, Chenzo was the best.
45:06
Offensive player In that series, Vincenzo had the big.
45:08
Shot that we all remember that went viral.
45:10
Don't worry, I'm I'm throwing some.
45:12
Curveballs for you Q because you probably don't remember because
45:14
you probably weren't watching, so I't helping you curveball
45:17
fish talking I'm giving you I'm giving you facts I'm giving you
45:21
facts. I just don't even fish is
45:24
talking. I bet you how you throwing
45:25
curveballs at me dude dude, I know about these games.
45:28
I'm a basketball fanatic. You're sitting here.
45:31
You're telling me I don't know ball well, you won't even make a
45:33
bet because you're going to lose.
45:34
That's why you're going to lose a bet dude at 3 hours to go dude
45:39
dude, dude, I'm relaxed. This is this is who I am, but I
45:43
got news for you dude. I don't care.
45:45
So. But now you.
45:46
Well, one second. Hold on one second.
45:48
Hold on one second, hold on one second.
45:50
You're gonna sit here and say I don't give a crap.
45:52
And I've never give a crap. I've always given you hear it?
45:55
Never said nothing about you. Yeah, well, you're pretty much
45:57
throwing that out there. Insane.
45:59
I'm insane tonight. I'm insane hearing what you
46:02
wanted. Really.
46:03
And you're spinning whatever you want to spin.
46:06
Why don't you go drink some water?
46:07
Calm here, You know, cool down. Cool down.
46:09
Because some of the stuff that's coming out of your mouth, you're
46:11
making more excuses for the Celtics I've ever seen.
46:13
I've never seen a Celtics Gonna make more sense.
46:15
Oh, it's excused, you see? Still around.
46:18
I don't know about that. There are more excuses.
46:20
Coming out of your mouth about the Celtics.
46:22
They suck. OK, their window is closed.
46:25
OK, the game is covered. I gave you the cover.
46:30
Hey, I'm covering. Listening to this garbage.
46:32
I'm gonna see. It's our source.
46:33
Doesn't mean that I'm making an. Excuse I'm this is what we
46:37
supposed to be doing. We supposed to be so this is so
46:40
this is your cover when you bring the Celtics up.
46:42
I have to give my so this is your cover the game, not my
46:45
excuse of why they want to lose. Just give me the position.
46:47
That's your coverage. That's your coverage.
46:49
It's great coverage, by the way, love it.
46:52
It's beautiful. I'm I'm sitting here listening
46:54
to this bull crap and anybody anybody listens to this crap.
46:57
Oh, here it comes the excuses from the Celtic fans.
47:00
Oh, well, he was flopping and no, no, no, no, no, no.
47:04
But they have a big man. Did you not say?
47:07
Did you not? Did you not say that the Celtics
47:09
have a good big man? Did you not say that?
47:11
They do. Oh, yeah.
47:12
Who? Who?
47:13
Kada. Kada.
47:16
All right. Kada's a good kada.
47:20
Is not a good player. He's not a good overall player
47:23
and if you if you want to sell me Kada.
47:25
That's why the Celtics lost that series.
47:27
They got dominated by a 76er team that was down 3 to one.
47:31
They brought an old, unhealthy Joellen feedback and Kada
47:34
couldn't stop crap. OK.
47:36
And yet that's his strength defense, right?
47:38
He couldn't stop him. So what does that tell you about
47:41
his defense? What does that tell you about
47:43
his defense? That's what I'm trying to tell
47:45
you. Because you don't believe in
47:46
coaching. You just think everybody just
47:48
had their free plan. You wouldn't understand that.
47:50
Oh, I don't understand the scheme.
47:51
I don't understand that he was playing in.
47:53
I do not benefit them in that situation.
47:56
I don't. I got paid for you.
47:57
Later tonight when we get to dial it up, A little slow
48:00
preview for later tonight about those schemes the Celtics had
48:04
and maybe the blame where it should lay and at whose feet.
48:07
See what happens in the offseason.
48:08
A lot of stuff kind of percolate in there.
48:11
But before we get out of the playoffs, Errol, we should just
48:13
kind of mention, you know, the other rest of the series going
48:16
on right now. We got what what do we have
48:19
tonight? We got Detroit and Cleveland
48:22
tonight and the Lakers, Thunder, obviously the Spurs.
48:25
The Spurs came back yesterday after after getting punched in
48:29
the mouth and they had some words with the Wolves put up a
48:34
huge number, beaten by almost 40.
48:36
It was over early. How do you feel about that
48:39
series going forwards? I love it.
48:41
I think it's going. To go probably six games, I
48:43
still think the Spurs and I had. Did I not have the Spurs winning
48:47
in six? Yeah, which I did too.
48:49
If Anthony Edwards are healthy, I was going to pick Minnesota.
48:50
Yeah, I, I even. With Anthony Edwards healthy, I
48:53
don't, I just don't think they're good enough.
48:54
I, I think there's more depth. I think the talent, the youth
48:57
that they have over there, I think they have more than enough
48:59
firepower to beat the Timberwolves.
49:01
So you look at that series, I would love to see the
49:04
Timberwolves take it to 7 and make it a challenge.
49:06
This is not the Nuggets where they they are living and dying
49:10
on Nikola Yokich. They've got a lot of weapons and
49:13
Webenyama is almost unstoppable when he can use both sides of
49:17
his game and and really dominate the boards the way he has so far
49:20
in game #2 if Webenyama plays like that, I mean, they're
49:24
almost, it's going to be very hard to beat.
49:26
He's the best performing. Player right now in the playoffs
49:28
and he's really taking on the front court basically on his own
49:30
because you're dealing with the rotation of guards, you're
49:33
playing a lot of smaller. Lineups with the concepts of the
49:35
three guards, with Fox Castle and with with Harper, and
49:38
they're kind of just making it work with the rest because
49:40
Wemby's just that versatile. That's not even the series that
49:42
I'm. Interested in it's the cats,
49:43
yeah, I think the I think the Wemby yeah, I think Wemby is
49:47
playing out of his mind, obviously, but I do see some
49:50
stagnation in regards to like him being indecisive and kind of
49:54
knocking them out, but I don't think it's enough to impact his
49:56
problem really was only the three.
49:57
Point shooting the first time, right?
49:59
Yes, I don't see it. Really impacting the series at
50:01
all. I think they beat them for one.
50:04
But I, you know, maybe Minnesota can find a way to squeeze
50:07
another one out of there if the San Antonio Spurs allowed them
50:11
to. But it's just, it's just too
50:13
much for them to overcome. And then with the unhealthy
50:15
Anthony Edwards, they don't have enough.
50:18
You never know what you're going to get from Julius Randle,
50:20
obviously, and then Jaden McDaniel.
50:22
I just think it's just too much responsibility to ask him to
50:25
continue to lead in and out, especially even with Anthony
50:29
Edwards on the floor. It's just gonna be too much for
50:31
him in regards to continue to stack those type of games.
50:34
Definitely a great talent, definitely has earned itself
50:36
some extra money. This this season, but I just
50:40
think that the spurs just got way too much and then you know,
50:43
they the way they beat him last night lets you know that they
50:46
are far greater than the Minnesota.
50:47
The series that I'm watching is the Cavaliers series with
50:50
Detroit. That's the series I want to see
50:52
because Detroit didn't show up in the last one came back from
50:55
three one. I thought the Cavaliers were
50:57
lingering against Toronto and Toronto.
51:00
That's not a good team. I was very intrigued how they
51:03
really took that series over in game number 7.
51:07
And really I by the way, RJ Barrett shout out to RJ Barrett,
51:10
who had a really good series. I I love RJ.
51:12
He was a nick draft pick. I don't wish him nothing but the
51:14
best, but the Toronto Raptors should not have been there.
51:18
That series should have been swept.
51:20
And the fact that the Cavaliers kept him in that series just
51:22
says a lot about maybe is James Harden really a playoff guy?
51:27
Is he going to be able to do the things that he needs to do to
51:30
take this team to the next level?
51:31
Because he had it and he did not do that with OK C when he was a
51:33
six man. He couldn't do that with the the
51:36
Houston, Houston Rockets when he was there.
51:40
And then when he moved on to the, we all know what happened
51:42
with Brooklyn that didn't last that long.
51:44
And then he went to the Clippers and he couldn't do it there
51:46
either. He went to three or four
51:47
different teams. And now he's he's with another
51:50
team with with a good roster, great talent, but and I
51:54
everybody knows what I think about Kenny Atkinson.
51:56
He's a Long Island native. I love him.
51:57
I think he's one of the best, more underrated coaches in the
52:00
NBA. But I just don't think the way
52:03
this team is built that they can go all the way and win a
52:06
championship. I think there's pieces missing,
52:09
unlike some of the other team and Detroit.
52:11
If Cunningham plays at a high level like he has been in the
52:14
last two games, I I think I think Detroit should win that
52:18
series. But the Cavaliers have the
52:20
better talent. But Cunningham is the better
52:22
player. I think Cunningham's the best
52:23
player in the series. Yeah, he definitely.
52:25
If you can get the backcourt presence if you're Detroit, they
52:28
definitely can make a difference because they were able to shut
52:30
down Donovan Mitchell as well. Donovan Mitchell is very
52:31
inefficient. James Harden, like you said,
52:33
like 7 turnovers in that game or something like that.
52:35
It was horrible, yeah. His best playoff accomplishments
52:37
are selling Nets playoff tickets outside because the Nets don't
52:40
have real fans. Horrible.
52:43
I I really. Think that that Pistons defense
52:47
can be pretty good if they if they can like get Osar Thompson
52:51
going offensively, he becomes a lot more in into the game.
52:55
He's been pretty good offensively so far in the first
52:58
game. He's already got eight points in
53:00
game two in the first half. Right now, he's a really good
53:03
player when he's in the flow of the game, one of the best
53:06
defensive players in the league. And then you have Duran next to
53:09
him. And if Duran's going, that's a
53:10
tough team with Kate in there. A lot of depth, a lot of length
53:15
on defense when they're going offensively to their real
53:18
handle. Handful.
53:20
And I know the Cavs have a lot of star players and we've
53:23
watched the Cavs for the last few years.
53:25
This Pistons team won 60 games this year and they would have
53:27
won more if Cade wasn't hurt. So I'm more afraid of that
53:31
Pistons team. I'd rather see that Cavs team
53:33
personally. Errol I I would agree.
53:35
With you. But I I'm not really worried
53:37
about the Pistons either because I saw what the Knicks did
53:39
against the same Piston team. Actually, it was a better Piston
53:42
team last year than they were this year.
53:44
There was no additions. They lost some pieces last year
53:48
as we all know what happened in the offseason with one of the
53:50
players. So I I still think that the
53:52
Knicks match up well against any one of these teams.
53:55
Yes, the Pistons are good defensive team and and the
53:57
Knicks have had problems against Detroit all season, but that's a
54:00
regular season. Playoffs are different,
54:02
different. It becomes a half court game.
54:04
And again, it all depends on OG and Anobi.
54:06
OG and Anobi is so very important to the New York Knicks
54:09
in any kind of way. If you look at Kate Cunningham,
54:12
who do you think is going to be defending Kate Cunningham?
54:14
It's going to be OG and Anobi. So to me, Kate Cunningham is a
54:18
long point guard 6665. He's got a tremendous ability to
54:23
get to the hole. He's got a great shot.
54:25
He can do everything. He can cause so much, you know,
54:28
havoc offensively and even defensively moving up and down
54:32
the court. So I worry that OG, if the
54:35
Knicks can't get him back, he's never going to be at 100%.
54:37
Just so for all the fans out there that understands
54:39
hamstrings and you're going up and down a basketball court and
54:42
that has something to do with dehydration.
54:45
So OG anobe needs to really hydrate himself if he expects to
54:49
play throughout this playoff. And that's something if you're
54:51
not hydrating yourself, right, what happens personally,
54:55
ligaments start to hurt and hamstrings start to go and and I
54:59
think that's how it happened yesterday.
55:01
So again, I, I still think the Cavaliers are going to win the
55:04
series. But what Detroit did in game
55:07
number one, it it's it's threatening.
55:08
It's definitely threatening. So Errol, we got our guest.
55:13
In there's only one thing left to do before that yes ladies and
55:16
gentlemen, my. Deuce of the day.
55:17
Deuce of the day you log, not a log.
55:21
I don't have a log, but no. All right, my deuce of the day.
55:30
Well, look at this one. It has something to do with the
55:33
Boston Celtics. What a joke.
55:36
Yes, Jaylen Brown, yes, for all the fans out there, He was fined
55:41
$50,000 by the NBA for criticizing the league's
55:44
officials on his tweet, his Twitch stream.
55:48
And, and I'm going to I'm going to read off what he said.
55:50
Every player does it, so why are they targeting me?
55:53
Brown said during a rant Sunday about the NBA referees on the
55:57
topic of push push offs. He also said flopping has ruined
56:01
the game and called the Philadelphia star Joellen Bead a
56:07
flopper. A cleared agenda.
56:09
Was just a flop. And get himself into trouble or
56:11
get himself into the line so he can, you know, shoot open free
56:15
throws. Here's the facts.
56:17
To me, losing is losing and winning is winning and flopping
56:22
is flopping, and this has been going on a long, long time.
56:25
As a matter of fact, as far as I'm concerned, it started when
56:29
the LJA LeBron James Association came into the league.
56:32
That's what it was for anybody that loves the King and he's a
56:35
great player. He's one of the greatest players
56:37
of all time. Not better than Jordan, but you
56:39
can argue he's the second or third greatest player of all
56:41
time. When he came into the league,
56:43
flopping became a a premium for the league and then James Harden
56:47
and then everybody started doing it.
56:49
Chris Paul, Joel Embiid, everybody.
56:52
Kobe Bryant didn't do it. Have have we ever seen Kobe
56:55
Bryant flop? No.
56:56
And when we we watch Michael Jordan when he played and we
56:59
watch Scottie Pippen, we watch all the greats, Karl Malone and
57:02
and everybody Patrick going. Nobody flopped in those days.
57:05
But as we heard from our friend Mike James, who was on our show
57:08
on Monday, he said it pretty easy.
57:10
He said that the league is a bunch of pushovers.
57:14
They're a bunch of wussies and that's what the league has
57:16
turned into, a bunch of wussies. So you're crying, Mr. Brown,
57:20
when it worked for you, when you won a championship a couple
57:22
years and you flopping and Tatum flopping and go to the free
57:28
throw line. That's the facts, guys.
57:30
You want it, you don't want to watch it.
57:31
Well then the league needs to step in and the players union
57:33
needs to step in and stop, stop allowing it.
57:35
I mean, how many times have we seen James Harden make 7 steps
57:38
to the hole? I mean, double dribbling,
57:41
traveling, whatever you want to call it, everybody does it in
57:43
the league now. Why?
57:45
Because LeBron James, LeBron James brought it into the league
57:47
and now everybody does it. Okay, LeBron James, it's the LJ
57:51
LeBron James association. So good.
57:52
Cry about it, complain about it. Is that a cry?
57:57
I don't know. I don't know what you sound
57:59
like, a cry in a game. Show noise.
58:02
Thank. You we have a new producer he's
58:04

59:09
the prime time for sports and, and a lot of guys go in and out.
59:12
It's it's not easy. We're not doing prime time for
59:15

59:17
sports and, and, and people are sitting and watching our show
59:20
throughout the show. So everybody that tunes.
59:22
And by the way, after we're live, we take the video off, so
59:26
you cannot watch it on our YouTube channel, the full video.
59:30
So the only way you can see it is on Spotify and Apple.
59:33
So I want to let all the fans know that we do not keep it.
59:36
We only do with this live on video.
59:38

59:55
college football. He'll join us at 8:20.
59:57
And then on Thursday, Greg Oden, former NBA player and then was
1:00:01
saying some of the. Directors.
1:00:02
Of his new movie as well. Yes, and and.
1:00:05
I've been following Greg and he's doing some things and he
1:00:08
has a clothing line. He's doing all these crazy
1:00:10
things and Greg was expected to be one of the better big men
1:00:15
when he was drafted by the Trail Blazers.
1:00:17
Obviously, it didn't happen that way.
1:00:20
He had problems with his leg and his feet and all that other
1:00:23
stuff. So we all know the background of
1:00:24
Greg Odin story and the guy that was drafted right behind him,
1:00:28
Kevin Durant. So we know his career and Hall
1:00:31
of Fame career. So I'm excited about that.
1:00:33
I've never interviewed Greg Odin.
1:00:35
I have Vince Popoli, but I I know Vince.
1:00:38
I met him in Miami. Very nice guy.
1:00:41
He's got great stories. I think everybody will enjoy his
1:00:43
storytelling. And if you never seen the movie
1:00:46
Invincible, Mark Wahlberg, great, great, great movie.
1:00:50
Disney movie. Anyways, that's it for our show,
1:00:52
ladies and gentlemen. Hopefully you don't use any
1:00:55
paddles like Bill Simmons did when he was a kid and don't
1:00:59
smack each other. And you know what?
1:01:00
Goodnight, Goodnight. Worldwide Sports Radio Network.
