- 1:35Speaker 2: of it.
- 1:35Speaker 1: Yeah, it was an NBA champ with the Heat, NCAA
- 1:39Speaker 1: champ with Kentucky, longtime Boston Celtic. Whatever. We won't hold

- 2:36Speaker 1: Now that we got that business out of the way,
- 2:38Speaker 1: it's time to get something we haven't mentioned yet. And
- 2:41Speaker 1: of course it's our top story story, all right, first
- 2:48Speaker 1: out the gate, our top story, which has nothing to
- 2:50Speaker 1: do with the NBA because nobody cares that much about that,
- 2:54Speaker 1: has everything to do with what just happened in Philly.
- 2:57Speaker 1: A terrible situation.
- 2:58Speaker 4: You know.
- 2:58Speaker 1: People are calling this signing of Jalen Hurts to the
- 3:02Speaker 1: largest NFL contract historical in great paper. This is not
- 3:06Speaker 1: great at all. The man is being underpaid. I go
- 3:10Speaker 1: as far to say that the Eagles shrifted him.
- 3:14Speaker 2: Yeah they did.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Let me just explain.
- 3:15Speaker 2: You see, this is how a QB market works.
- 3:18Speaker 1: People. What you gotta do if you want to set
- 3:20Speaker 1: a number for a player, you got to look at
- 3:23Speaker 1: a recent major QB signing, right, Dony.
- 3:26Speaker 3: Absolutely, you can't just look at him as a vacuum.
- 3:29Speaker 2: Yeah, you see this is obvious.
- 3:31Speaker 1: People. What you gotta do is look at a recent
- 3:33Speaker 1: QB contract. So let's look at Deshaun Watson to the Browns.
- 3:37Speaker 1: Look at his guaranteed money. Deshaun Watson got two hundred
- 3:40Speaker 1: and thirty million dollars guaranteed. Jalen Hurts only got a
- 3:44Speaker 1: measly one hundred and seventy.
- 3:46Speaker 2: Nine million get doesn't make any sense, makes no.
- 3:48Speaker 1: Sense, especially when you put their stats from last season
- 3:51Speaker 1: side by side.
- 3:52Speaker 2: So let's go ahead and do that.
- 3:53Speaker 1: Bring up that graphic, all right, Total touchdowns Jalen Hurts
- 3:58Speaker 1: thirty five Deshaun Watson eight.
- 4:01Speaker 2: Wow.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Passing yards Jalen Hurts three thousand, seven hundred and one
- 4:07Speaker 1: amazing Deshaun Watson a lowly eleven hundred and two. Lawsuits
- 4:13Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts zero, Deshaun Watson a whopping twenty two.
- 4:19Speaker 2: There you go.
- 4:20Speaker 1: Criminal probes Jalen Hurts again, Goosegg zero Deshaun Watson nine.
- 4:27Speaker 2: Numbers never lie.
- 4:28Speaker 1: And finally, Tony, the most important stat of all, of course,
- 4:32Speaker 1: I'm talking about third down completion percentage.
- 4:35Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 4:36Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts sixty two point six. Wow, Deshaun Watson forty
- 4:41Speaker 1: eight point nine.
- 4:43Speaker 2: There you go. The numbers tell the whole story there. Yeah.
- 4:47Speaker 3: And based on that, Jalen Hurts should have gotten a
- 4:50Speaker 3: billion guaranteed.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, Tony. It's just embarrassing anyway. Shifting gears now
- 4:56Speaker 1: to the NBA. You know, the NBA playoffs now in
- 4:59Speaker 1: full swing. You know, I keep hearing these people out there.
- 5:03Speaker 1: They're all complaining saying that the playoff schedule is too
- 5:06Speaker 1: hard to follow. I don't think that at all.
- 5:09Speaker 2: Do you, Tony? No, what's hard to follow?
- 5:12Speaker 1: Exactly? Like you know, just take this Net sixers series.
- 5:15Speaker 1: You know, Game two was on Monday, Game three on Thursday,
- 5:19Speaker 1: three days later. Yeah, so, Tony, when would you expect
- 5:23Speaker 1: game four to be played.
- 5:24Speaker 3: Obviously two days later on Saturday?
- 5:27Speaker 2: Exactly? There you go.
- 5:28Speaker 1: And if the game on Thursday is at seven thirty pm,
- 5:33Speaker 1: then naturally you would assume that the next game.
- 5:35Speaker 3: Is I mean, this is an easy one one pm, obviously,
- 5:39Speaker 3: so easy and simple.
- 5:41Speaker 2: I don't understand the problem. Use your brain. Yeah, use your.
- 5:44Speaker 1: Brain, people, But you know that's the only way we're
- 5:46Speaker 1: going to defend the NBA. This NBA playoffs so far
- 5:49Speaker 1: has been an absolute joke, a total mess.
- 5:51Speaker 2: You know, Travis, you.
- 5:52Speaker 1: Got all these players dropping like flies. Giannis goes down
- 5:55Speaker 1: with an injury, Job Rant with an injury. I thought
- 5:58Speaker 1: load management was both to be preventing this stuff, you know,
- 6:02Speaker 1: But plan to me, what's going on here, Don'ty?
- 6:05Speaker 2: The players that two rested they good?
- 6:07Speaker 1: Yeah, these injuries, they're happening because the players are resting
- 6:11Speaker 1: too much. You know, their bodies just start wasting away.
- 6:14Speaker 1: So when it comes to playoff time. You know, they're
- 6:16Speaker 1: basically out of shape, don't you a great Tony?
- 6:19Speaker 3: Of course, this is just science. Their muscles are a trophying.
- 6:23Speaker 3: John Moran only played in like half the games this year,
- 6:27Speaker 3: so he's basically out of shape.
- 6:29Speaker 1: You know.
- 6:29Speaker 3: This is why I have so much more respect for
- 6:32Speaker 3: the older generations.
- 6:33Speaker 2: They never rested ever.
- 6:35Speaker 3: My grandfather never took a day off in his life,
- 6:39Speaker 3: And the only time I saw that man sitting still
- 6:41Speaker 3: was when we laid him to rest at age forty
- 6:44Speaker 3: nine after he had a massive heart attack. But other
- 6:47Speaker 3: than that, the man was a bull.
- 6:50Speaker 1: What a touching tribute to your grandfather, Tony. And well,
- 6:54Speaker 1: now to a story that luckily he isn't alive to
- 6:56Speaker 1: see because it would disturb him so much. You know,
- 6:59Speaker 1: the league suspending Draymond Green for Game three of the
- 7:03Speaker 1: Warriors King Series because he stepped on Demontas Sabonis.
- 7:07Speaker 2: You know, Baiel, this.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Is supposed to be playoff basketball. And you know in
- 7:10Speaker 1: the NBA was what's the most violent spot in all
- 7:14Speaker 1: of America? You know, these gen zs ruined it with
- 7:17Speaker 1: their load management.
- 7:18Speaker 2: You know, you wonder why ratings are down.
- 7:20Speaker 1: You ask me the league should be promoting violence instead
- 7:23Speaker 1: of stopping it.
- 7:24Speaker 3: Isn't that right, Doning, Absolutely, there's too many rules now.
- 7:28Speaker 3: I'm as simple as times like in the eighties when
- 7:31Speaker 3: Charles Barkley was throwing fans out of glass plated windows,
- 7:34Speaker 3: or even two thousand and five when the Pacers led
- 7:37Speaker 3: the league in steals, fights and forced hospital visits. The
- 7:41Speaker 3: Sixers and Pacers were what basketball was all about. There
- 7:45Speaker 3: was such a force that even their own security guards
- 7:48Speaker 3: and local law enforcement were unable and even partially afraid,
- 7:53Speaker 3: to stop them.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Terrific historical perspective that donty. You know, people also forget
- 7:58Speaker 1: how violent the league was in the nineteen seventies. You know,
- 8:01Speaker 1: people forget the nineteen seventy nine NBA Finals, you know,
- 8:04Speaker 1: of course, between the Bullets and Sonics.
- 8:06Speaker 5: You know.
- 8:06Speaker 1: Oh yeah, as we all know, both teams started that
- 8:08Speaker 1: series with twelve players but finished with nine in what
- 8:12Speaker 1: many considered to be the bloodiest NBA Finals of all time.
- 8:16Speaker 3: You know, I researched this. Between nineteen seventy seven and
- 8:20Speaker 3: nineteen eighty four, the third biggest cause of death among
- 8:23Speaker 3: athletes was NBA playoff games, behind number one cocaine snorting
- 8:29Speaker 3: and number two eating straight cocaine.
- 8:31Speaker 4: Wow.
- 8:31Speaker 3: You know, forgive me if I get emotional here, but
- 8:34Speaker 3: the way the game is played now is such an
- 8:37Speaker 3: insult to the true NBA veterans, the tough guys who
- 8:41Speaker 3: sacrificed their bodies, their eyeballs, their tendons, their teeth, pieces
- 8:47Speaker 3: of their nostrils, and their elobes just to play the
- 8:51Speaker 3: game they love just.
- 8:53Speaker 1: So beautifully, said Dody. And just such a game when
- 8:56Speaker 1: you put it that way. But you knows we got
- 8:59Speaker 1: someone from that generation coming on ye now who can
- 9:03Speaker 1: speak for it I see him coming on the line,
- 9:05Speaker 1: so let's bring him on the Fusco Satellite Network.
- 9:09Speaker 2: Satellite all right.
- 9:12Speaker 1: This man a first round pick out of Kentucky in
- 9:15Speaker 1: nineteen ninety six after leading the wildcatch do an NCAA title,
- 9:20Speaker 1: played for the Celtics the MAVs. The Hawks averaged above
- 9:23Speaker 1: twenty points a game. Yeah, more importantly played eighty two
- 9:27Speaker 1: games a season, like a real man's right, and also
- 9:31Speaker 1: as impressive as top twenty all time in Korea technical fouls,
- 9:35Speaker 1: So so respect for that.
- 9:37Speaker 2: Of course.
- 9:37Speaker 1: In two thousand and six he won a title with
- 9:40Speaker 1: Shaq and d Wade on that legendary Miami Heat team.
- 9:44Speaker 1: The right way instead of taking out you're taking the
- 9:47Speaker 1: easy way out like Lebron anyway, an twin Walker.
- 9:51Speaker 2: Welcome to the show. Welcome mister Walker man.
- 9:54Speaker 4: Thank you for having me, guys, I appreciate it.
- 9:57Speaker 1: You know, Antwine, you are what they called in force.
- 10:00Speaker 1: You know we don't have that anymore. You know, you
- 10:02Speaker 1: handled your business on the court. So let's talk about
- 10:05Speaker 1: this Raymond suspension. When you came into the league, you know,
- 10:08Speaker 1: they let a lot more slide, right, you know you
- 10:10Speaker 1: were allowed to bring a man within an inch of
- 10:12Speaker 1: his life.
- 10:13Speaker 2: Yeah, and you'd maybe get a flagrant one at most, right, yeah, barely.
- 10:17Speaker 1: When you see Draymond getting suspended for merely stepping on someone,
- 10:22Speaker 1: isn't that insulting to you and your generation of players
- 10:25Speaker 1: who tried to make the game more violent.
- 10:28Speaker 6: Well, I think it's different now, and I think it
- 10:31Speaker 6: just kind of emphasizes that even more. I think the
- 10:36Speaker 6: league has to take into consideration that this is the playoffs.
- 10:39Speaker 6: Guys are gonna play hard, it's gonna be physical play,
- 10:43Speaker 6: and everything doesn't have to be a suspension of the game. Yeah,
- 10:46Speaker 6: what's wrong, what's wrong? We're giving them what's wrong, We're
- 10:49Speaker 6: giving them a fine and moving on from that. You
- 10:52Speaker 6: find a guy's stiff number here, he'll remember that, you know,
- 10:55Speaker 6: you finally got fifty k K or something like that.
- 10:57Speaker 6: Funny action like that. They will react a lot better.
- 11:02Speaker 6: But I just hate to do see that because you
- 11:04Speaker 6: want to see a good series. You hate to see
- 11:05Speaker 6: a guy miss a game, and it just kind of
- 11:09Speaker 6: takes away from the competition and saying, you know which
- 11:12Speaker 6: team is going to be better because this can this
- 11:14Speaker 6: that serious could really go seven games.
- 11:16Speaker 1: Well, all, don let me ask you something. When you
- 11:18Speaker 1: watch the game these days, do you feel like crying
- 11:21Speaker 1: at what you'll see because it's so it's so soft.
- 11:24Speaker 1: You long for the days when you know players would
- 11:27Speaker 1: routinely get hospitalized, you know, permanently.
- 11:29Speaker 2: And like the old school Knicks. Yeah, they see the
- 11:32Speaker 2: old school Celtics.
- 11:34Speaker 6: Yeah, I do think the game is soft. I wasn't
- 11:37Speaker 6: one of those guys. I mean I've had some mostercations
- 11:39Speaker 6: and things of that nature. Point it is soft. I
- 11:42Speaker 6: think they take away from I know they want a
- 11:43Speaker 6: more free foreign league, and you know, you think you
- 11:46Speaker 6: want to do more things for the fans and think
- 11:48Speaker 6: that's what the fans want to see. But I think
- 11:49Speaker 6: fans like to see tough competition. Obviously they have come.
- 11:52Speaker 6: They're not coming to a boxing match, but I think
- 11:55Speaker 6: they like to see guys go at it in a
- 11:56Speaker 6: tough competition, and the league didn't want that. The league
- 12:00Speaker 6: wanted to get more scoring. I remember when the games
- 12:03Speaker 6: were played in the ages and nineties, and you know
- 12:06Speaker 6: it's really physical. But now you know, you know the games.
- 12:08Speaker 6: They want the games in the one team fifteen range,
- 12:12Speaker 6: so that's why you see the play and they take
- 12:14Speaker 6: away the physical aspect of the game.
- 12:16Speaker 1: Yeah, Yeah, what was what was your favorite fight altercation
- 12:20Speaker 1: that you were involved and take us back down memory lane.
- 12:23Speaker 6: I don't I don't have a favorite, but I did
- 12:25Speaker 6: have a playoff situation with with Indiana. Me and Jermaine
- 12:28Speaker 6: O'Neill got into a situation. We got into it a
- 12:33Speaker 6: little bit and I ended up getting the battling of it.
- 12:36Speaker 6: I ended up getting suspended and uh, missing the game,
- 12:39Speaker 6: and and.
- 12:40Speaker 4: That that hurt us. So that that was that was
- 12:42Speaker 4: my b Tell.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Everyone, Tell everyone why you got suspended because that was
- 12:46Speaker 1: actually unfair.
- 12:47Speaker 2: Go ahead. We were very upset when that happened.
- 12:50Speaker 6: Oh I got suspended because of Uh they say I
- 12:53Speaker 6: moved the referee out the way.
- 12:55Speaker 2: No, yeah, they said you hit the ref Yeah that's nonsense.
- 12:58Speaker 2: But he's on the court. Shouldn't he be part of
- 13:00Speaker 2: the action. He was in the way?
- 13:02Speaker 4: Fans game, yeah, you would, you would think so.
- 13:05Speaker 6: But they said I touched the ref and and that
- 13:08Speaker 6: was the reason why they suspended me.
- 13:10Speaker 4: So it was unfortunately. I lost a lot of money too.
- 13:13Speaker 6: That was a big, big, big, big check I lost
- 13:16Speaker 6: because that was a game and it was a playoff game.
- 13:18Speaker 1: But isn't it crew didn't I hear that when that happened,
- 13:21Speaker 1: you actually went through the league office and like body
- 13:24Speaker 1: slammed someone there him around a little bit.
- 13:28Speaker 4: No, but uh, you know, you try to please your case.
- 13:30Speaker 6: I think at the time when I came out, I'm
- 13:32Speaker 6: not mistaken Stuve Jackson.
- 13:34Speaker 4: I know of you guys whom Stut Jackson.
- 13:35Speaker 6: Well, he was the he was the disciplinary and he
- 13:38Speaker 6: was the head guy. So you know I had I
- 13:41Speaker 6: tried to have a talk with him, but I think
- 13:43Speaker 6: he held grudge. When he was the head coach at
- 13:45Speaker 6: the University of Wisconsin. He recruited me and I ain't
- 13:48Speaker 6: go there, So I think.
- 13:49Speaker 2: That's why he had it out for you see.
- 13:51Speaker 4: I probably had. He probably had it out for me.
- 13:54Speaker 3: But that's actually a perfect segue for something we wanted
- 13:56Speaker 3: to bring up with you about your former head quote coach,
- 14:00Speaker 3: a great man, Rick Patino, and getting hired at Saint John's.
- 14:05Speaker 4: Right.
- 14:05Speaker 1: You know, you chose to go to Kentucky and play
- 14:08Speaker 1: for Rick Patino, who's just a way shining beacon in
- 14:11Speaker 1: college basketball. But you know people are saying, and I
- 14:14Speaker 1: can't figure this out. They're saying he's too old, or
- 14:17Speaker 1: you know, he committed too many casulations or he's been
- 14:20Speaker 1: the subject of too many FBI investigations. You know, had
- 14:23Speaker 1: too many sexual experiences, and it's all in restaurants. You know,
- 14:26Speaker 1: who can Don't you think all that experience, though, is
- 14:29Speaker 1: valuable for a coach?
- 14:31Speaker 4: You guys are crazy.
- 14:32Speaker 1: No serious question, bro, No.
- 14:36Speaker 6: No, no, no, but listen, I'm coach P's uh. Let's
- 14:40Speaker 6: just say he's a great coach. He's gonna do a
- 14:42Speaker 6: terrific job. He's gonna he's gonna he's gonna take that
- 14:45Speaker 6: program back to where it was back in the day
- 14:48Speaker 6: that I truly believe that he still has a passion
- 14:51Speaker 6: and love for the game that second, and none but
- 14:54Speaker 6: the situations. We all make mistakes in life, I think,
- 14:58Speaker 6: you know sometimes you know, people seem to forget that.
- 15:01Speaker 4: You know, everybody's not perfect.
- 15:03Speaker 2: And coach, well, let me ask you something.
- 15:05Speaker 1: When you were at Kentucky, who was the opponent you
- 15:08Speaker 1: prepared for most that Patino what you're prepared for. Was it,
- 15:11Speaker 1: you know, Kansas North Carolina?
- 15:12Speaker 2: Or was it the FBI?
- 15:14Speaker 1: Was he training you, you know, in case the FBI
- 15:16Speaker 1: came and asked your questions.
- 15:19Speaker 4: No, it was all it was all training to go
- 15:22Speaker 4: against other schools. It was all. It was all good.
- 15:25Speaker 6: No, but I just want to I would just say
- 15:26Speaker 6: this though, to speak on coach Patino's half. He's a
- 15:29Speaker 6: He's a great coach, a great motivator. Obviously I'm a
- 15:33Speaker 6: little biased because I played for him. He's been such
- 15:36Speaker 6: a great and positive influence in my life. But you know,
- 15:40Speaker 6: he's a tough key's a tough cookie. He's had some situations.
- 15:42Speaker 6: I was actually down there with him when he went
- 15:45Speaker 6: to his trials and tribulations as well, and just to
- 15:47Speaker 6: see how he handled at it because I was in
- 15:50Speaker 6: the process of trying to get back into the league.
- 15:52Speaker 6: So I went down there and trained with him and
- 15:54Speaker 6: state uh with coach for for a couple of months.
- 15:56Speaker 2: Okay, did you take a lot of detective tests?
- 15:58Speaker 1: Was that part of the training? You know, LI detective
- 16:01Speaker 1: speak to a lawyer, you.
- 16:02Speaker 6: Know, Cy, I was scared. I was scared to get involved.
- 16:08Speaker 6: I mean not scared.
- 16:09Speaker 2: I just we're scared of him too.
- 16:11Speaker 6: No, I just didn't want to get involved, and and
- 16:13Speaker 6: and and and get into that. I was trying to
- 16:15Speaker 6: keep the negative aspect of things just out the way.
- 16:19Speaker 6: But I coach has been great, nothing but great to me.
- 16:22Speaker 6: I have none but great things to say about him.
- 16:25Speaker 4: And obviously, uh.
- 16:26Speaker 1: He's clearly wearing a wire someone he is, he's in
- 16:29Speaker 1: on it.
- 16:30Speaker 2: Let's let's let's we we we've been remiss here. We're
- 16:33Speaker 2: having you on the show. Who is?
- 16:36Speaker 1: There's a lot of choices out there for n B
- 16:38Speaker 1: A m v P. Who is your pick?
- 16:42Speaker 6: Wow, that's a tough one because I think it's it's
- 16:46Speaker 6: it's embarass here.
- 16:48Speaker 2: It's a tough one. Yeah, it's a tough one.
- 16:51Speaker 1: Okay, explain why what you can't through math?
- 16:54Speaker 4: No?
- 16:54Speaker 3: I like him be oh, okay, this is getting good.
- 16:59Speaker 1: He yeah, we go all right, you walk your way
- 17:02Speaker 1: through it, Go ahead, walk in his way.
- 17:05Speaker 6: I think Embiid has has earned the right to I
- 17:08Speaker 6: mean I think he's earned it. He's had consecutive really
- 17:11Speaker 6: really good seasons. He's really carried that team. And when
- 17:15Speaker 6: you really look at Philly, James Harden is not the
- 17:19Speaker 6: same James Harden, even though he was great, this was passing.
- 17:22Speaker 6: He's not the same James Harden.
- 17:24Speaker 2: He's better. He's got that veteran experience.
- 17:27Speaker 1: Now.
- 17:28Speaker 4: I just think this is the U F m B
- 17:30Speaker 4: I think he deserves.
- 17:31Speaker 2: Think yeah, yeah, all right, but who's say you got
- 17:34Speaker 2: the Sixers? When you got that question correct?
- 17:37Speaker 4: Now I got do I got the Sixers?
- 17:39Speaker 1: What?
- 17:39Speaker 2: Who is your title pick? The six is obviously based
- 17:42Speaker 2: on that.
- 17:44Speaker 6: No, they're not my title pick. You guys know I'm
- 17:48Speaker 6: not picking Philly. I'm gonna pick Boston before I picked Philly.
- 17:52Speaker 6: I think I think it's wide open. I think this
- 17:55Speaker 6: year is gonna be a fun year.
- 17:56Speaker 2: You know what should be wide open?
- 17:58Speaker 1: The door car you're in and that because I was

- 18:34Speaker 1: on in the game of basketball.
- 18:35Speaker 3: You know, if he was in the studio, he would
