• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Well, you can ask that in just a moment because
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: we'll go to the Ramas Law Hotline car accident. You
• 1:05

• 1:17
  Speaker 2: you become the second team in NHL history to have
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: only two regulation losses by the time the new year hits.
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: First of all, thank you for joining us. How about that?
• 1:25
  Speaker 6: Yes, that would be nice. It would be nice. See
• 1:29
  Speaker 6: if we can keep this thing going.
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: Man, you're like that kid that's got everything he wanted
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: for Christmas and then some Right, this has been great.
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: I have to ask you this coach. The other night
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: in Vegas, you're down four to two and it looked dire.
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: It looked like, okay, well, any team at that point,
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: given the success you've had, can mail it in, pack
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: it and say we gave it a go. You had
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: to travel the same day to get there, and yet
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: you found the resolve to get back and win that
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: game in a shootout. Where does that resolve come from?
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: For this is a team that dominating right now? How
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: do you find that?
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's that's leadership. I think in our room, that's
• 2:07
  Speaker 6: what it is. It's it's guys like all banding together
• 2:11
  Speaker 6: and not wanting to give up on you know, the
• 2:14
  Speaker 6: good thing that you got going, and it's just like
• 2:17
  Speaker 6: heart and determination, that's what it is. It's like you
• 2:20
  Speaker 6: can't go through, you know, thirty eight games of the
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: year and have the record we have without it. It's
• 2:28
  Speaker 6: there's a it's a different type of focus and buy
• 2:32
  Speaker 6: in and just you know, refusing to lose. And that's
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: that's really good characteristics obviously of your team, and I
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: think the guys should be proud of that. But to me,
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: it's that's what it is. It's just it's leadership in
• 2:48
  Speaker 6: the room and and guys taking charge and having the
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: belief that you can come back and win based on
• 2:57
  Speaker 6: like your previous performances, and so that was it. That
• 3:02
  Speaker 6: was really nice to see. You know, we haven't been
• 3:04
  Speaker 6: trailing like that a lot this year, but when we've
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: needed goals late. You know, Nashville was a game where
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: we scored late on the six on four and this
• 3:14
  Speaker 6: one we scored on the six on five and just
• 3:17
  Speaker 6: you know, playing the game out till the buzzer goes.
• 3:19
  Speaker 6: I think it was It's really it was really nice
• 3:22
  Speaker 6: to see, and I'm glad the guys got rewarded for
• 3:24
  Speaker 6: their effort.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: By the way, Brett's back.
• 3:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah, congratulations, Bramer.
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: Do you remember when you took six weeks off when
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: you had your kids and whatnot and during the season
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: and somebody else was, uh was coaching?
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: What not? Right?
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: Coach?
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: Can you babysit? You need to get out of the house.
• 3:42
  Speaker 6: I'd be a great baby.
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: Sit sure, you.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: Would coach in all honesty when when you're going the
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: way you are. And I asked Sam Malinski this the
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: other night on the bench, you know, when is it like,
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: hey man, let's you know, you won fourteen in a
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: row at home, you're sixteen oh and two in ball.
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: What does it become? Hey man?
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: How how far can we take this thing? I mean,
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: do you do you think about that? Or is it
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: just the result of the pride and the preparation.
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, no, I don't think about it. I don't think
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: they do either. If you start thinking ahead and start
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: thinking about those things and you're not focused on being
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: in the moment, you know. So it's it's I know
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: it's cliche, but it is just like focus on your
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: process one game at a time and kind of give
• 4:26
  Speaker 6: it everything you got, you know, be in tune and
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: dial in on the details and the competitiveness needed, and
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: then go out and play and you know, and you're
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: different teams, You're gonna throw different things at you on
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: different nights and you have to be ready for it all.
• 4:43
  Speaker 6: You have to be ready to adjust and you got
• 4:47
  Speaker 6: to play hard. And that's like the consistency of our
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: team so far through you know, the regular season to
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: this point is the consistency is what's oppressing me, impressing
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: me and to me again, it just goes back to
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: that leadership and belief that your team has coach.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I feel like you're gonna hate this question, but I
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: am curious. You know, a couple of years ago, when
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: McKinnon won the MVP, we asked you about his standing
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: in that and it's all about the team and that
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: the individual stuff, but it was cool that he was
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: in that award and he got that. You've never won
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: a Jack Adams. Your team is really good this year.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: You're probably in position as of right now, and I
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: know there's a long season still to win.
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: That does that matter to you?
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: What is that something you would you would cherish if
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: you got it?
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: It does not matter to me one bit, gotcha? I
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: like and you know, like we have guys there, you know,
• 5:47
  Speaker 6: hitting Miles Stones and all that, and I think I
• 5:49
  Speaker 6: think that's for post career. You look back on it
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: and you can say ye, did this, did that? You
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: know whatever. The only thing that matters to me is
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: winning the Stanley Cup. That's it, you know, and it's
• 6:03
  Speaker 6: hard trophy to win, and that's all the matters the
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: focus every year for me, Like, I just do not
• 6:11
  Speaker 6: like losing. I like, you know, any game during the
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: regular season and certainly in the playoffs, I don't like
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: to lose. So the only thing that I think about
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: is what do we have to do to win the
• 6:27
  Speaker 6: Stanley Cup, And the regular season is just really all
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: preparation for that and trying to get our team prepared
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: for what we may face in the playoffs. And yeah,
• 6:43
  Speaker 6: and that's that's really all I think about.
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: You do have something pretty cool though, that you know
• 6:46
  Speaker 5: about that no other coach has done, right, No, well,
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: the Kelly Cup, the Calder Cup and the Standley I
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: mean nobody's done that.
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: That's pretty cool, I think, you.
• 6:58
  Speaker 6: Know, Yeah, it's I mean, do you think about your
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: like you're getting prepared for a season every season, and
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: like there's only there's only really one way to measure success, right,
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: and that's winning the whole the championship. So I don't
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: care what level you're at, you know, there's other things
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: that you can take pride in, but your goal is
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: to be the last man standing at the end of it, right.
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: So I've been fortunate to be able to do that
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: at a couple of different levels, and I mean, it's
• 7:34
  Speaker 6: the best feeling that you can possibly have is get
• 7:37
  Speaker 6: in a group of twenty five players and by the
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: time you add staff management, everyone's pouring their hearts into
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: the season. The only thing that feels good at the
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: end of it is is being able to lift the trophy. Right,
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: So that's what everyone's chasing, and it's very difficult to do,
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: but it's it's the ultimate goal and it's really the
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: only way you feel satisfied at the end of the
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: year is if you're able to do it.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: You're playing a team with a losing record tonight, and
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: obviously those kind of games could be difficult for some.
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: It's not been difficult for you. You found a way
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: to motivate your team. But you hinting on this earlier.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: It starts in the room. How much motivation do you
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: actually have to do? I mean, what do you do
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: pregame anymore? Do you just say I guys, here we
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: go again, or do you have to rile up a
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: speech for every opponent.
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: No, that's never that, honestly, that's you know, there's different
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: coaches I think have different strengths, and never really to me,
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: it's like it's like I don't know. I prepare a
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: team so they know exactly what to expect from our opponent,
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: and I prepare a team so they know exactly the
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: type of like identity game that we need to play
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: and what I feel like are the most things for
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: our success in general and then for our success tonight,
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: and and then you know, like part of this game
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: and part of being consistent, you know, as a coach
• 9:13
  Speaker 6: and as a player is you you have to be
• 9:17
  Speaker 6: self motivated. Right. The guys that are the best at
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: what they do are self motivated guys. And some guys
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: need a little help with it, and they need a
• 9:25
  Speaker 6: kick in the pants every once in a while or
• 9:28
  Speaker 6: pat on the back. But you know, it's it's more
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: for me about the information and then the process of
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: what we need to do to have success. And if
• 9:39
  Speaker 6: everyone's doing it, you're giving yourself the best chance to win.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: On a nightly basis, I'm glad I have you on
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: the show. We have you on the show, and I
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: don't know why my camera just did that. But you
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: are used to coaching a team and you've done it
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: before where you've lost players, I mean injuries galore. You've
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: gone through this. What what words of advice would you
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: have for coach gentlemen and the Nuggets after losing Nikola
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: jokicch for what could be a month or more.
• 10:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, Like, that's a difficult situation, right because every player
• 10:10
  Speaker 6: you lose, and the bigger the role they play, the
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: harder it gets. Right, it becomes incrementally harder to win.
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: The margins for air become smaller and smaller with every
• 10:22
  Speaker 6: player you lose. You lose a player like Djokis, it's like,
• 10:26
  Speaker 6: you know, it becomes even that much more difficult because
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: it touches every area of the game. But it's you know,
• 10:33
  Speaker 6: ultimately the you know, his duties and responsibilities get split
• 10:38
  Speaker 6: up between everyone, so you have to ask a little
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: bit more from everyone and they have to understand that
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: it's going to be more difficult, but it's not impossible.
• 10:48
  Speaker 6: You're getting five percent more from different guys, and some
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: guys may surprise you and continue to help you win
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: hockey games, but are basketball games. But it's it's you know,
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: you've got to continue to focus on what you do
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: well and everyone you got to be even more dialed
• 11:07
  Speaker 6: in on the detail of your game, and and just
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: you have to pick up the slack as a group.
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: And there's nothing you can do except keep charging forward
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: and do the best you can and the results will
• 11:20
  Speaker 6: will land where they land. But you got to you
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: got to keep battling. In the long run, it may
• 11:26
  Speaker 6: make them a better team because you're gonna find out
• 11:28
  Speaker 6: even more about some of the guys that you have head.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: Coach to the abs you're betno with this is he is.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Every Wednesday, I'm going to play a little bit of
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: the post game from you a couple of days ago.
• 11:36
  Speaker 6: Are there any.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: Rising concerns with the power play? It feels like some
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: you guys will have to work three good games and
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: then you'll have one time.
• 11:44
  Speaker 6: Yes, yeah, I mean it's because it's been too long
• 11:48
  Speaker 6: without us figuring it out right, So there's there's concern
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: for sure. I still have lots of belief in it, though.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: So I know everybody's striving for perfection, and when you
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: have a hole in your game, you're trying to improve it.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: And the power play can get better or I understand
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: all that. Is there any part of you though, when
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: you keep getting power play questions where you're like, we're winning,
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: I understand that this isn't where we want it to be,
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: but we're winning.
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: Does it annoy you almost well?
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: I mean you never want to be answering questions on
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: like why your team's not doing very well in an
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: area or overall, right, it's just not great. And if
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: you look at our game, it's like five on five
• 12:27
  Speaker 6: play has been really good. Penalty kills and really good
• 12:30
  Speaker 6: and getting goaltending. We get like, there's just so many
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: things like that. If you had a checklist of twenty
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: things that you want your team to do, we're doing
• 12:39
  Speaker 6: nineteen of them right and on nights twenty of them.
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: But the power play has been it's because you look
• 12:47
  Speaker 6: at you know, you have a a car, you have
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: a McKinnon. There's more to it than that. So they
• 12:53
  Speaker 6: see star people see star players and think, yeah, the
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: power play should be good, and it should and it's
• 12:59
  Speaker 6: been good in the past, and it's power play can
• 13:02
  Speaker 6: be a little finicky. Like I said in that quote,
• 13:06
  Speaker 6: I have a ton of belief that we'll figure it out.
• 13:10
  Speaker 6: But we've tried different setups, different personnel, you know, a
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: few different ideas on where we need to improve, but
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: it's an ever changing thing. We want to improve something,
• 13:25
  Speaker 6: we're good at it and it looks good, and then
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: it goes away the next game and like, so that's
• 13:30
  Speaker 6: an area of our game where we've been inconsistent. You know,
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: we haven't scored easy on the power play when we've
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: created our chances, and then on other nights we're not
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: creating danger enough, dangerous enough chances consistently. So it has
• 13:46
  Speaker 6: to improve because it's an area that can really help.
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: I feel like if we get our power play going
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: and continue to play all the other areas of the
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: game the way we are right now, we're going to
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: be really tough to be right so, and that's the goal.
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: So we're going to continue to stress certain things. If
• 14:06
  Speaker 6: we're going to continue to move guys around and yeah,
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: creat some competition there and see if they can't drive
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: up the urgency and the execution. And we'll start that
• 14:16
  Speaker 6: already tonight with some different ideas, Like after the last
• 14:19
  Speaker 6: week's look at the power play, you don't want to
• 14:22
  Speaker 6: be changing it every game. You have to give the
• 14:26
  Speaker 6: players time to adjust. But we've kind of had the
• 14:28
  Speaker 6: same set now for eight or nine games, and it's
• 14:31
  Speaker 6: time to take a different look at it again.
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: Coacha, your last thing for me in that regard, I
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: mean I've seen it. I mean I've obviously watching every game.
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: I see different things. I see guys in different places.
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: I've seen you change a little personnel with the top unit,
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: that sort of thing. I just don't know, really, what
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: can you do, I guess is my question. Not to
• 14:52
  Speaker 5: give away any trade secrets, but you know, I mean,
• 14:56
  Speaker 5: do you ever think about just blowing the whole thing
• 14:58
  Speaker 5: up in different personnel? And you know, guys, I know
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: your best players want to be out there and they
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: are your best players, But I don't I don't know
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: what else you do, right, Yeah, I.
• 15:07
  Speaker 6: Think yeah, like number one, I think you have Like
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: there's different things we see. So the messaging will change
• 15:15
  Speaker 6: a little bit tonight and for the next handful of games,
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: we'll keep trying to keep what we have planned for
• 15:22
  Speaker 6: tonight together. Like I said, We're going to try and
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: create a little bit of competition here to drive some
• 15:28
  Speaker 6: urgency and ultimately the execution because I think they've done
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: some really good things to open things up on the ice,
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: and then our execution hasn't been great. But yeah, I
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: mean we're open to anything and everything at this point.
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: And like I said, the execution five on five and
• 15:51
  Speaker 6: like our attack, you know, playing even strength has been
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: so good. I think we have to take some of
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: that mentality to our power play. And yes goes and
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: again he score one. You can gain a little confidence
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: and start stringing them together here, but if you can't
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: look big picture too much. You got to focus on
• 16:12
  Speaker 6: the first power play you get and making that dangerous
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: and then try to carry a little bit of that
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: momentum over to the next one. And it may not
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: just be a switch that flips, but you want to
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: be able to build it in the right direction, so
• 16:26
  Speaker 6: it's more dangerous than it is right now.
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: Well, the Kings were all over your bacon.
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: I mean, I can't remember the last time I saw
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: every guy in a PK finishing his check in the
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: corner and this kind of thing, you know what I mean, Like, golly,
• 16:37
  Speaker 5: they were out of they're afraid of your what the
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: story was, but they were incredibly aggressive, So it's I
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: guess it's just different stuff every night, that's all.
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah, No, for sure, every team's going to throw something
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: a little bit different at you. But it's a copycat league,
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: so when they see one team have success a certain way,
• 16:55
  Speaker 6: the next team that's playing is going to try to
• 16:58
  Speaker 6: do something similar, and then it works again, then the
• 17:02
  Speaker 6: next team's going to do the same thing. And you're
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: we're kind of seeing that teams are getting more aggressive
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: and trying to take away Kale and Mac and then
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: you got to be able to adjust and work out
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: of it and find the next play. And we you know,
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: at times we've done it and then not been able
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: to finish it off, and then other times we're having
• 17:22
  Speaker 6: trouble with that pressure. So I think it's you know,
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: our guys are aware of that. They kind of understand,
• 17:28
  Speaker 6: you know, after the pre scout meeting exactly what's likely
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: to come at them, and yeah, we just have to
• 17:34
  Speaker 6: find a way as a group of five to work
• 17:38
  Speaker 6: around that and find the next play and be all
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: on the same page and then still execute under some
• 17:45
  Speaker 6: difficult circumstances. They're going to put that type of pressure
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: on you.
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: Coach. This last question is the most important question you'll
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: answer this morning. And decided to save it for last.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: Do you have a Sister's curious? Do you have a sister?
• 18:00
  Speaker 6: I did? Okay, so let's just I'm the MIDI.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: Okay, let's just play this game of the three of us, myself,
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: MOJ and King. Which of the three would you least
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: like to see your sister date if given that opportunity.
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: You can be honest, I'm gonna go yeah, I'm gonna
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: give you an answer. I'm gonna say probably, MOJ.
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: The reason we pause there is because there's zero surprise whatsoever.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: By the way, by the way, there's a correct answer
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: to that, and you nailed.
• 18:34
  Speaker 6: It leading the witness. I felt like, I know you
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: didn't necessarily lead to witness. I knew where you're going. Wow,
• 18:45
  Speaker 6: you just gotta play along. It's not because Mos isn't
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: a nice guys, really nice guy, you know. I I
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: just can't, you know, like, and probably I know Mos
• 18:55
  Speaker 6: a little bit better than you guys, So you know
• 18:59
  Speaker 6: that's probably why I said most.
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: Wait, so who's the player then in your locker room?
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: I won't answer that one.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, by the way, one last thing, coach, just a
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: quick two parter here, When can we expect to see
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: loc and when he does come back, who's going to
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: exit the lineup?
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: Becau everybody's playing pretty well.
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we're not there yet. Yeah, we're not there yet.
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: We're still trying to figure out, you know, a plan
• 19:25
  Speaker 6: of a plan to get him back in the lineup,
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: and it's it's it's not going well. And it's been
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: a little frustrating, especially for him because I know how
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: much you want to play and how hard he's working
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: to get back, but I'm just not there on the timeline.
• 19:42
  Speaker 6: And yeah, so no use worrying about you know, maybe
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: at this point just yet, gotcha?
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: All right, Well, coach, always appreciate your time.
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: Again.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: Congratulations, you got that answer, absolutely correct. Good luck tonight,
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: and we'll talk.

• 20:02
  Speaker 3: single Wednesday.

  Speaker 4: He's right, You led the witness. You led the witness.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: He didn't say a word.
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: I'd never mentioned anyone by name. He couldn't easily said me,
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: could have said Cain, but he went exactly where everybody goes. Listen,
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: nobody wants their sister as one of our twitch followers
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: so aptly, but nobody wants their sister drinking from a
• 20:22
  Speaker 4: spit cup. Okay, good point. Hey, I have an admission
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: that's gonna make me look really foolish that I want
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: to make when we come back. It's something that I've
• 20:36
  Speaker 4: now taken on as a hobby, and at first I
• 20:40
  Speaker 4: was ashamed to bring it up. But I am going
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: to admit my hobby and what it's done to me
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: over the last twenty four hours.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Okay, we'll get do that in just a second. By
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: the way, all conversations with the Coach are brought to
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: you by mister Ruver Plumbing, proudly rooting for Colorado's hockey team.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: Back after this pooh, who ah, what vic what?
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah? It just hit me and I'm sorry to bring
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: this up. I'm doing the last segment and on my
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: twitch feed. You know, do you guys get those commercials
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: on your twitch feed? I don't know where they come from.
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: And I'm looking at this and I keep getting commercials
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: for kitty litter, like new fangled kitty litter. I'm like,
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: what the hell is going on? Why am I getting
• 21:24
  Speaker 4: all this kitty litter stuff? And this is when I
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: know the computer knows more than you. Think they're watching you.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: I have embarked on a new hobby that was introduced
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: to me on Christmas Day, paying in my sandboxes. No,
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: my wife bought a one thousand piece puzzle for the
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: family to work on. Of course, the family gave up
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: on that hurry, so it was left to mine my duty.
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: I'm I'm the one who. We have this puzzle laid
• 21:50
  Speaker 4: out on our kitchen table, and you ask what is
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: the puzzle of? Exactly like I love geography puzzles, I
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: can do that. It's a puzzle of four kittens in
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: four quadrants for kitties. And I've been working on this
• 22:06
  Speaker 4: puzzle for a week now. Last night, I'm not joking.
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: I spent eight hours, eight hours on this puzzle, one
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: thousand pieces, tiny little pieces, and it's just trying to
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: put these cats together. And I'm colorblind, so having to
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: do a puzzle that features all these different colors is
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: incredibly difficult with my disability.
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: But just just go with shapes, then go with shape.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm doing. I'm doing angles and shapes. That's
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: all I can ok because I can't see the colors.
• 22:36
  Speaker 4: Like my wife says, just get the blue portion. I
• 22:38
  Speaker 4: go what blue portion? What are you talking about? And
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: I don't know if Nelly has a picture of the puzzle,
• 22:44
  Speaker 4: but this is a thousand pieces of bunch of colors
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: of cats. And I cannot tell you how difficult this
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: has been. And I am not going to stop until
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: it's done. I am not going That is the puzzle itself.
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: Look at all those cats, that's the that's the final.
• 23:03
  Speaker 4: Look at what it's supposed to look like. Look at
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: all those colors, those shades. How am I, a color
• 23:10
  Speaker 4: blind man, supposed to put that together? Well, I've made
• 23:13
  Speaker 4: this my mission. Eight hours of employee yesterday, on this
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: eight hours of misery, I'm about halfway done. That's where
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: I'm at right now.
• 23:26
  Speaker 6: Stupid.
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: What's so stupid about it?
• 23:29
  Speaker 4: Have you ever done something that your disability may not
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: allow you to do, but you want to work through
• 23:34
  Speaker 4: that disability?
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: Are you saying you're you're going to beat color blindness?
• 23:40
  Speaker 4: I'm going to beat it. I am beating it.
• 23:43
  Speaker 5: I mean, look, I'm sure you are. Well. Look at that.
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: I see the orange cat in the corner here, easy
• 23:49
  Speaker 5: because he's got a Santa hat on.
• 23:51
  Speaker 4: Well that was for some reason, my eyes saw that
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: pretty easily. The rest of this is a complete crap show.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna be honest with you. Colorblind is taking an
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: early lead in this.
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: Far.
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: Could you guys a cold Let me ask you this motion,
• 24:10
  Speaker 4: and you have to give me credit. Give me a
• 24:13
  Speaker 4: pat on the back for showing, because you know I'm
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: the most impatient guy display the patience to sit at
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: a kitchen table and do a kitty cat thousand piece puzzle?
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: Can you give me my flowers for that? I give
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: you your flowers. My wife and I, uh and my
• 24:29
  Speaker 5: daughter played scrabble last night, two games of scrabble. I've
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: been playing a lot of scrabble with my wife. Two
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: games ago she blew my doors off. You talk, I know,
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: that's what I agreed. Yeah, all right, oh my god.
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: Right, did you see you have two little ones? Now,
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: there's no way.
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: We're doing puzzles. No, we're doing puzzles all the time,
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: a thousand piece puzzles. But they're like, yeah, little kids.
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: Put your kid on that sucker. See what they can do.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: She's not colorblind, she might be able to get pretty quick.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: See when do you find out your kid's color blind?
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: When does that happen?
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: I told you my story when I was about ten
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: years old. We went to the doctor and my mom
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: spoke broken English. We went to the eye doctor because
• 25:18
  Speaker 4: I failed something at school. Eye doctor comes back in
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: the room and said, miss Lombardi, your son is color blind.
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: Well she interpreted it as blind.
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: So she starts crying.
• 25:30
  Speaker 4: I'm like, ma, I could see you. True story. Poor Bambina,
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: Poor Bambina. She like starts breaking, She's crying.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: It's it's like I'm trying to figure out a mother.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: To a ten year old who just didn't notice her
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: kid was blind for ten years.
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: He's running in the wall. Just you tripped a lot.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: You're clumsy. I don't know, Miss Lombardy, your son is
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: color blind? Just emotional, just in the lather over there, crying.
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: I'm with you motion.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: I feel bad because yes you it lost in translation, right,
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: you just hear one part of it and you're like,
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: oh no, hey, And I'm.
• 26:24
  Speaker 4: Tired of you. People's up. And I shouldn't say that.
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: I appreciate everyone. Everybody keeps sending me these links for
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: these glasses, these blind color blind glasses. It doesn't work.
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: Those those things are they don't work all right. All
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: it does is accentuate what you can't see.
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: So, I mean, I've seen videos of people put those
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: on and then they they're like, oh my god, that
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: just it doesn't work.
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: For you or what. I'm not sure color blind is.
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: I could see colors, I can't distinguish colors. There's a
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: big difference. It's like being, uh, what's it called when
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: people can't read dyslexic. Yeah, you could see the letters,
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: you just can't put them together. So I can see
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: all the colors, I don't know what they are. Do
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: you understand the different You have a limited bank of
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: colors that you see. I see what you see, but
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: I can't identify what I see. See.
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: This is what I've always talked about this. You can't
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: describe red. There's no way to describe it. You can
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: say things that are red, but you if somebody said,
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: what is red?
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: I look at you have to identify an apple, right exactly?
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: So anyway, VIC keep at the kiddies. I almost say
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: that thing tomorrow when I'm hate watching college football all day, Yeah,
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: that thing will be done.
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: Done.
• 27:51
  Speaker 4: You say, yeah, it'll be done by tomorrow.
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: If that's eight hours of work, eight.
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: Hours last night, eight hours, all right, skip the workout for.
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: That three oh three five O four nine two five.
• 28:05
  Speaker 2: Didn't like by the way, that thing that Bednar said
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: at the end of that interview that LLC is not close.
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that's that's concerning The surgery was in the off
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: season June, right, The surgery was in June. And I
• 28:19
  Speaker 5: don't know that it's related to what got surgically repaired.
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: It might be something else that came along as he's rehabbing,
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: oh like overcompensating for some sort of thing. Yeah, he
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: says it's not going. Well, that's a bummer because you know,
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: he's a he's a good player.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Because this was I think if I remember correctly, when
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: we talked to Bednar way early like the first time
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: this year, well, l he was on trestle. Was like
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: the time frame like right now is supposed to be
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: around the time that he came back.
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: Well, he has been skating, is I mean he was
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: He's been skating for like over a month.
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: I mean, well, does he skate When you see him skate,
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: does it look I.
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: Know he does it on his own victory probable, you know,
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: before everybody gets out or you know, he's been out
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: a couple of times in red.
• 29:08
  Speaker 4: But but what Here's.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: Here's my question though, and I guess it's a moot
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: point now, But what it was going to be was
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: if let's say he was going to come back like
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: in a week.
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: But the hell you taking out of the lineup. You
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: don't take Hi, Briandley out.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: It's playing well, Parker, Kelly, Kevranta, Like, who's who is
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: the guy that gets replaced?
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: I just think what you miss is you miss l
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: OC's experience. I mean you're talking about Stanley Cup.
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: Champions and his penalty chi although you miss him when
• 29:36
  Speaker 4: you're short handed.
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: That's yeah, well they have well they have something number
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: one p K in the league. I know, but no,
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: I want Shorty, don't you. I I dig what you're saying.
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: I don't know, because all these guys are fighting to
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: stay in the line. They know nobody wants out. You know,
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: Brinley doesn't want to come out. You know Kivvy doesn't
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: want to come out, Parker doesn't want I mean, I
• 30:00
  Speaker 5: don't know. You can't take him out. It's a good
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: problem to have right now.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: By the way, the double dip tonight, if you're looking
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: for the Nuggets, they'll be on double double dip. I
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: see I missed those. By the way, it's the first
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: time I heard that this morning from Val.
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: I love it.
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: Uh that I I would say that is better than Jesus.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: By the way, double, I think Vals is better than.
• 30:23
  Speaker 5: That's Valentnis you're talking about, Yes, yeah, not val Nachushkin,
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: big Val.
• 30:31
  Speaker 4: That's Valentia's Wait a minute, Wait a minute, that's that's
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: valentoas that is Jonas Valentis.
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: That's where you.
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: Had me confused, Nelly, because baby Bo Val I thought
• 30:42
  Speaker 2: was after bo Nix and Val.
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: It can go for both vowls.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: You specifically chose Val because it could go both ways.
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: You don't tell me what I named my daughter after.
• 30:53
  Speaker 3: You don't get to do that to me. I thought
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: it was Val.
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: I thought it was Val Nichushkin, and and that's why
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: I'm so surprised. I was like, God, that's I didn't
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: expect him to have that high eventage.
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: That was Valentunis.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: But Nuggets will be on Am nine to fifty with
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: pre games starting at five, and the Apps will be
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: on ninety two five with pre games starting at six
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: thirty tonight, as we have another one of those.
• 31:15
  Speaker 4: When do you want the keys.
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: By the way, we'll get the keys here at about
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: ten minutes. Okay, get some of them keys, all right.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: I do want to get back to the Broncos as
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: well as uh you know you're you can.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: I be honest with you, guys.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: I know I just came back and it's our job
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: to have things to talk about. I don't know how
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: to discuss the game this weekend other than you should
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: kill the Chargers. What there was a time or can
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: I really say if they're benching everybody, there.
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: Was a time around these parts when you talked like that.
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: You get your little bottom paddled.
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: That is a dub. What do you mean?
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: Well, I said they should go in last Thursday to
• 31:58
  Speaker 5: Kansas City starting a practice squad quarterback with a bunch
• 32:05
  Speaker 5: of guys out of the lineup, And I said they
• 32:09
  Speaker 5: should go in there and wax those guys. That's the
• 32:11
  Speaker 5: way it should go down. It should be like what
• 32:12
  Speaker 5: the Patriots did to the Jets. No, but the difference
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: I g I got, and I get, I get, I
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: get spanked, and the head's happened all year long. You
• 32:20
  Speaker 5: should beat you should beat the snot out of the Raiders.
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: And then they don't, and it's my fault.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: But I don't have like a, hey, what's the really
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: interesting matchup in the game this week, Like there's really.
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: I don't know if there is one.
• 32:31
  Speaker 5: It's stupid.
• 32:32
  Speaker 4: It's a stupid exercise. If if the Broncos kill the
• 32:35
  Speaker 4: Chargers and look great, they're still going to be doubt,
• 32:38
  Speaker 4: they're still going to be well, you know, the Chargers
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: were shorthanded. If they squeak by, it's gonna be Well,
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: this is what the Broncos do. They played the level competition.
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: It's what's the difference. Just win the game.
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I know.
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying as far as don't get injured, that's
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: that's kid, that's exactly what good.
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: And you're because you're playing for something because the Patriots
• 32:58
  Speaker 5: have a free win and the Jags have a free
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: win this weekend, No, there should be because you're playing
• 33:02
  Speaker 5: for you should have a free wind if I don't
• 33:05
  Speaker 5: get injured.
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: If I give you this, if I said that the
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: Broncos are guaranteed to win by a point on the
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: last second two point conversion, but you're guaranteed no injuries,
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: would you take it hunt of percent?
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, yeah, it's just they they have ultimate
• 33:19
  Speaker 3: motivation to go in there and win.
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: You know, a bye week heading in the postseason, you're
• 33:24
  Speaker 4: automatically in the division round and you get to avoid
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: what might be the best teams in the AFC that
• 33:28
  Speaker 4: are in the wild card.
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
• 33:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, hold on a second, Mike Texan Vic. I'm proud
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: of you. It's inspiring. Yeah, that's that was my goal.
• 33:37
  Speaker 5: You're doing a kiddy cut puzzle. It's not inspiring, it's
• 33:41
  Speaker 5: it's inspiring.
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: To No, you know what it is. No, I think
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: there are a third of men who are colorblind. I
• 33:46
  Speaker 4: think that's what it is. I don't look it up.
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: I'm inspiring men out there who can't see the colors
• 33:52
  Speaker 4: in front of them. I am a walking, talking inspiration
• 33:55
  Speaker 4: to those men. Not many would tackle a thousand piece
• 33:59
  Speaker 4: colored uh jigsaw puzzle with kitty cats.
• 34:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: I've been inspired by a lot of things in my life.
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: You doing a kitty cat puzzle is not one of them.
• 34:11
  Speaker 4: Sorry, Bro, Have you ever done one thousand pieces? Of
• 34:15
  Speaker 4: course that's what I thought.
• 34:17
  Speaker 5: Of course I have.

  Speaker 4: You haven't. With my eyes.
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: Closed, I couldn't even see the shapes.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: That would be something all right, three oh three, five,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: four oh nine to two five back after this. All right,
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: So it's New Year's Eve tonight, we'll be off tomorrow.

  Speaker 2: Obviously the final regular season week of the NFL season.
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: There is so good to know that I've inspired so
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: many people. They're coming out of the woodworks now.
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: Just when you're in move on.
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: I can't do this an absolute inspiration.
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: No I can't. I won't. Hey, MTV shutting down?
• 35:05
  Speaker 6: Go on?

• 35:27
  Speaker 5: I mean the MTV from our childhood hasn't existed.

  Speaker 3: But you know what, junk, don't even get me started.

  Speaker 4: All right?

  Speaker 6: Man?
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: All right? Yes, if you're looking for like real MTV nel.
• 38:21
  Speaker 4: You know what it is, all right?
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: No, no, this is not Moser's Happy Hour. Okay, we
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: aren't doing this anymore. This isn't Friday.
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: Friday is reserved for this song and it has its place.
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: I have a question about David Adelman.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: Please, how much do you judge David Adelman in this
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: month or more the absence of Jokic.
• 38:47
  Speaker 5: Dude, it's a hell of a it's a hell of
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: a prospect to have for a head coach.
• 38:50
  Speaker 4: I'll tell you that much creativity is going to be
• 38:52
  Speaker 4: through the roof, you know. And our boy Jake Coyne,
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: who has been on our show several times, listening this morning,
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: and I asked the question. I said, I can't remember
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: the last time a team was minus four starters before
• 39:04
  Speaker 4: the first of the year. I don't think it's ever happened. Well,
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: he looked it up. The last time a winning team
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: had three plus starters out due to injury by January
• 39:18
  Speaker 4: the last time, and that was three, not four. The
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: twenty eighteen Clippers. They were without Blake Griffin, Danilla Gallinari,
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: and Patrick Beverley. Three starters. Mind you, none of them
• 39:30
  Speaker 4: named Nikola Jochich. So a little different. Three starters and
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: during that stretch they went eleven and ten, so they
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: finished above five hundred. That's the last time this has happened.
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: You understand how this is? How do you even find that?
• 39:43
  Speaker 4: I don't know he found name? I mean, who was that? Dan?
• 39:46
  Speaker 4: Dan did it?
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: Oh? Jake coined it? Yeah, so thank you for looking
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: at me. I would imagine that, you know, but in
• 39:52
  Speaker 5: the most positive boys.
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: But this is how rare it is. I mean, not
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: only to be missing now four starters, not just three four,
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: but to be missing the best player in the world. Right,
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: so he Trump's like, Nicolo, is the value of two
• 40:06
  Speaker 4: or three of those dudes?
• 40:07
  Speaker 6: Right?
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah? I mean Pat, Bevan, Blake Griffin combined. This is
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: a different deal. So, yes, is the is the pressure
• 40:14
  Speaker 4: on David Adelman? Well, of course it's on everybody. But
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: what does David like If you're David Adelman and you're yeah,
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: you're trying to do a hype speech for tonight's game
• 40:25
  Speaker 4: in Toronto, what what.
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: Do you say? Well, you know, I don't know what
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: you say, Vic, but other than you know, hey, let's
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: we still you're all getting paid to play basketball. You're
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: all in the NBA, which means you're good basketball players.
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: You're you're the you're the one, you're your point one
• 40:44
  Speaker 5: percent of all basketball players on the planet go out
• 40:48
  Speaker 5: there and play basketball. What I hope what I hope.
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: I hope they don't come off their timetable to bring
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: those guys back earlier than expected.
• 40:56
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 40:57
  Speaker 4: I hope that you know, ag had a certain date
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: that you never know what those soft tissue injuries. I
• 41:03
  Speaker 4: hope they don't accelerate that based on what's going on,
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: because that can only hurt things even more.
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: So, just to like put this in perspective, there's a
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: coach that's dealt with this a little bit. Like the
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: Avs were hurt really bad at the beginning of last year.
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: I'll give you this was their fifteenth I'm sorry, twenty
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: fifth game of the year. It was against Edmonton, the
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: game they lost four to one. Ivan Ivan was playing,
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: coval Anco was.
• 41:33
  Speaker 5: Okay, let's let's go through the list of guys who
• 41:35
  Speaker 5: were long gone, Ivan, Ivan, Covid I think's back in
• 41:38
  Speaker 5: Russia right now.
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: By the way, coval Anco middle stat I mean, he was.
• 41:43
  Speaker 4: Just a guy. But Pushapoff, Chris wag who Prishapoff I
• 41:50
  Speaker 4: don't even remember that name.
• 41:51
  Speaker 5: John Ludwig seven.
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: I don't remember that name Alvin Dahan eight.
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, these are the guys, and these guys are
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: out of the league.
• 41:59
  Speaker 5: Some of these guys are out of they don't play
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: hockey anymore.
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: These were guys that were playing for you in the
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: middle of that season, and.
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: You were able to keep it afloat.
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: Now, they had mccarrn the lineup still, they had Miko
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: in the lineup still at that time, they had McKinnon
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: in the lineup.
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: Still, they had their big But you have to place
• 42:17
  Speaker 4: value on who it is, not just a starter. Like
• 42:19
  Speaker 4: losing Cam Johnson compared to Nicola Jokat, you're two entirely
• 42:23
  Speaker 4: different type parts. The Nuggets could have survived without Cam Johnson. Okay,
• 42:27
  Speaker 4: as much as you all appreciate Cam and what he
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: brings you, it's a depth feast. You can survive. How
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: do you survive without the sun?
• 42:36
  Speaker 5: I don't know, Vic, I don't know. I mean, I
• 42:39
  Speaker 5: guess I'm curious in just a curious way, not positive
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: or negative. I'm curious to see what Adalman does and
• 42:47
  Speaker 5: what it looks like, because I really don't know. I mean,
• 42:49
  Speaker 5: obviously Valentcunis. He's been a starter in this league. He
• 42:52
  Speaker 5: knows how to play the middle. He's far from joker.
• 42:55
  Speaker 5: I get that, But at least you have a guy
• 42:57
  Speaker 5: who's been around and done that taking over that particular
• 43:00
  Speaker 5: role everybody else. I don't you know my message.
• 43:03
  Speaker 4: I don't know. My message would be simple if I'm
• 43:06
  Speaker 4: adalman for tonight. Now, tonight's going to be different than
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: next week, because I think next week you might have
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: a couple of these guys back. But tonight, just have
• 43:11
  Speaker 4: funs New Year's Eve, have fun, man, have fun playing basketball.
• 43:14
  Speaker 4: This is a reason we all love this game, a
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: reason we all got into this game. Have joy in
• 43:19
  Speaker 4: your step tonight. Have joy in your shot. Just play
• 43:21
  Speaker 4: with joy, no matter what happens. That joy might be
• 43:24
  Speaker 4: ruined by halftime, but have joy. Okay, I just don't
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: know what it's going to look like. You can't reinvent
• 43:32
  Speaker 4: the game. You can't reinvent your strategy that quickly make shots.
• 43:36
  Speaker 4: You know, the beauty of basketball is the three point
• 43:40
  Speaker 4: shot neutralizes a lot sure things, so a team may
• 43:44
  Speaker 4: not be We see it in the NCAA tournament every year,
• 43:46
  Speaker 4: right that that Cinderella that comes out of nowhere and
• 43:50
  Speaker 4: they bite you. They do it because the three point
• 43:53
  Speaker 4: line can help you win games, and otherwise you would
• 43:56
  Speaker 4: not win. So what are you are you suggesting?
• 43:58
  Speaker 6: What?
• 43:58
  Speaker 5: Murray Hardaway, Brucey be all these guys just start firing away.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: This is what I suggested earlier.
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: I think it's a time you can start experimenting with
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: the lineup a little bit. And I think, especially with
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: Joker out not having a backup big to now Valentiunis,
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: you can put a lineup out there.
• 44:19
  Speaker 4: Who's your starting five tonight?
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: Murray Hardaway, Spencer Jones, Valanciunas and Watson.
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, okay, all right, who's coming off the bench? Uh,
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: Brucey be Off off the bench?
• 44:33
  Speaker 5: Obviously got to be Zeke off the bench.
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: I'd say Bruce b Strather Strather sick.
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: He may not played in it. I was gonna say,
• 44:41
  Speaker 4: he's sick. Willdron get more run against? Who else? Do
• 44:45
  Speaker 4: you have? Pickett? Pickett's gonna? I mean that's a small,
• 44:49
  Speaker 4: small second five, all right, Deron, I got that on here?
• 44:54
  Speaker 4: Who else Fellas?
• 44:57
  Speaker 5: Uh, that's it pretty much a squad, that's all you got.
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: Bro still on the roster.
• 45:05
  Speaker 5: Seven eight, yet nine guys total, nine total. Everybody's gonna
• 45:14
  Speaker 5: get some. Everybody's gonna get a taste. Everybody is going
• 45:17
  Speaker 5: to get a taste.
• 45:19
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: The only good news Toronto is missing their big fella.
