3-05-26 Hour 1 - Don't Trade Val/Nugs respond to Dort's apology/Team guard Jokic differently · Moser, Lombardi and Kane

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: This is Moser, Lombardy and Kine on demand. Listen live
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: every weekday morning from seven to ten on Altitude Sports
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: Radio note E two to five and on the Altitude
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio app.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: All right, it's a ticket Thursday, so keywords on the
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: twenties of each hour Nuggets and Lakers tonight, huge game.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: We'll get to that in a second. I've come to
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: a realization though, Vic heard as we are day away
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: from the NHL trade deadline rumors. I don't know where
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: the vowel's name being thrown out and these trade rumors
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: has come from, but I don't like that at all.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: I think that'd be incredibly silly. And here's why we
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: talked about this. Vic Val is having a rough go
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: out it. I think he's got one goal since the
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: new year, so offensively, the numbers aren't quite there that
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: you'd expect out of him. Although he's not expected to
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: be a huge points guy because he does everything else.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: He's a penalty killer, he's a back checker, he does
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: like he's got an all around game. But the main
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: reason why I don't want this is because I don't
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: want to mess with your top six. It's good. Why
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: would you change that up at this point in the
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: calendar when they're playing so well, and if you remember
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: last year, they made a move to go get Brock Nelson.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: That's turned out to be a great move. Brock has
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: been fantastic. It took a minute though, for that all
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: the work you get a month before the playoffs start.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: I don't want to start to, you know, screw with
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: chemistry before then. For the main groups of guys on
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: your team.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: Well, a couple of things here. I think we all
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: know that Val is more of a playoff performer. Yes,
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: right when the game gets gritty, when the game gets physical,
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: when the whistle stops blowing, that's when he plays his best. Right,
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: Well he was.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: I think he could have been arguably your best player
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: when you won the Cup during that playoff run. Was
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: that good?
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: However, And it's interesting and ironic because they made the
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: decision after winning the Cup do we want to keep
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: Cadri or do we want to keep Val? Yeah, and
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: they chose Val, and they told us why they wanted Val,
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: and then the absences came exactly. The reason why I'm
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: open to whatever they want to do with this is
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: because maybe they know something we don't as in vowels
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: of availability vowels. I don't know. Maybe they know something
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: we don't about what they need, what buttons to push here?
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: Maybe you know, Bednar brought this up that he goes
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: Val has been dealing with a wrist injury that he's
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: been playing through. That could be part of why he's
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: been struggling a bit as of like uh, he said,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: he's getting he's a lot better now. I just the
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: idea of changing something in that department. You know, even
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: when you make the trade Miko Ranson in that nets
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: you Marty Nachs. Can we all agree Marty Nacho's is
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: as good as Miko ever was from a production standpoint, like,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: he's on pace for the same, if not better, of
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: the best seasons of Miko. But it didn't take place immediately.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: It took time.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: Well proved otherwise otherwise, from what standpoint, Miko was a
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: playoff performance, yes, and is a playoff performer, proves yep.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: And I think natures can be that. I mean, you
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: watch the way he played in the Olympics. I know
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: it's not the playoffs, but it was the same sort
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: of intense hockey that we're talking about. He's a really
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: really good player.
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: So what you're telling me is you don't want to
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: pull the trigger on any deal.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: No, I want them to make a move. They have
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: cap space to use. I don't want them to mess
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: with the main thrust of your team.
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: Though.
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: If you want depth, and I'm all about going to
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: get Cadri, if you can throw him on a third line,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: are you kidding, that'd be amazing. I'm not doing it
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: at the expense of somebody in my top six, is
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: what I'm telling you. That's not gonna happen if I'm
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: in charge, because I am not messing with I mean, look, Vic,
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: is the top line pretty good or do they produce?
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Top line's pretty good. How about that second line now
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: with Val and Landy and brock Nelson all these different guys.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Is that good? Yes, that's producing? Why mess with that?
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like, what's the saying cutting off your
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: nose despite your face or whatever that is? It feels a.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Lot like that. It's called scratch in your face.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Scratch you Yeah, you don't want to scratch your face.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Don't scratch your face. That's it. But I just I've
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: seen people start to like come around to the idea.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: And what's interesting, Vic, did you ever think that val
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: would be tradable again, considering the absences in the past. Remember, yeah,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: we're like, hey man, you can't trust him anymore, but
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: you can't really get rid of them. You aren't gonna
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: cut him. You can't trade him because nobody would trade
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: for him. It's pretty amazing that he is now seen
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: as a tradeable asset.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: Sure, it's been two years since he had an incident, right, Yes,
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: it's been a while. And again, I don't know what
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: they know behind closed doors. I do know this, The
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: next twenty four hours are going to be very exciting here.
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Yes, they made one trade already. I'll be honest. I
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: don't fully understand it because your blue line was fine.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: But they acquired Nick Blankenberg from Nashville and he's having
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: the best season of his career. But Vick, when you
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: look at the blue line, everybody's healthy and playing well.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: So I don't know if this is a trade to
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: get a piece to package with another trade or what.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: Maybe it's a depth piece. I have no idea, but he's.
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: Had smaller deface. He's like another Gerard.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: No, it's actually amazing the similarities. Yeah, they're both five
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: foot nine, and they both were born on the exact
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: same day. Yeah, yeah, so, I mean, just weird coincidence
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: speaks French. I don't know if Blankenberg and let me
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: see blancn beer. Hang on one second, let me check
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: this out. Nick Blankenberg is he's from Michigan.
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah good, What do you think?
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, honest enough, close to Canada. Maybe a French
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Canadian sort of feel to it, could be.
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, in my eye, he's a freendchie.
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: But they made that move and I don't know, Like again,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: don't quite see the purpose now unless somebody's hurt that
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: we don't know about. But perhaps a chip to use
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: in another trade coming up in the next twenty four
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: ish hours. I have no idea. The point is they
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: got they got room to work with, and I want
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: them to do that, but I don't want it at
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: the expense of another big gun on the team.
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: That's all. Well, all is quiet on the Avalanche front,
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: including the loudest of all, Mark Moser. What the hell
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: is he?
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: I think he's off again?
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: Today? He is?
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: I think?
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: So?
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: Why was I not notified?
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Because you yelled at him?
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: So I yell at him one time? Live on the
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: show and he takes two days off. I don't know.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: No, you know what Moser always says, he is, I
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: have unlimited PTO. I never take time off.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: So one time I raised my voice.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Fatherly in a fatherly tone.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: And he goes two straight days. How soft is he?
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: Maybe he just wants to enjoy Cali, I know, shut
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: him off, shut me off. I really thought that was
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: him jumping on right there. Actually, I don't know. I
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: don't think he's on today.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: So it says he's taking mental health days because of the.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Yelling something like that. Well, maybe he golfs so bad yesterday.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: I don't know how he played. Maybe he golf so
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: bad Yesterday's like I know, I'm not talking about it.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: They're gonna ask me about it a shot at ninety two,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: not bringing it up.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know how insulting me. He's gonna make this
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: a better segment.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: I actually talked to him for a second yesterday when
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: he was about to start playing Yeah, and I said,
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: what's the over under today?
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: Mos?
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: Eighty one, eighty two? He goes no higher than that.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: The over unders should be. How many dolphins I'm gonna
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: hit I've never played next to the ocean before.
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: Why did you talk to him? Did he just willingly call.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: You it was just one of those random moture calls.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Did he call you to say, hey, I'm still out
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: because VIC yelled at me?
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: Or no, he didn't say that.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 8:20
  Speaker 4: Motion.
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: You're just like, oh, I'm about to go play, and
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: I was like, oh, okay, good good luck, buddy. I
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: hope you play well.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: He didn't call me. I noticed he didn't call me.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: You yelled at him.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: I apologize via text.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: Not good enough. I guess. I don't know what to
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: tell you, but you're right. The next twenty four hour
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: is gonna be really interesting for the ABS because I
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: the least likely thing that they do VIC is nothing right.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: I can't see them just like going to do something.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: They're utilizing this CAPSU listen, man, you're you're in that window.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: This is the window you are need and you're there.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: You're gonna go.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Have the avs ever been accused of not making a move,
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: Like every year they spend to the limit, they kind
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: of do what we were just talking about the Rams yesterday,
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Jie the Ram since twenty seventeen, VIC with their own
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: first round picks. They've made one selection since twenty seventeen.
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: It was Jared Versu a couple years ago.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: They've traded every other one. Like the Avs are kind
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: of like that right now.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: It's like those picks.
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: Whatever it takes for us to go get a player,
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: We're gonna get a player.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: Dude. I'm just excited at the quality of play we're
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: gonna get over the next few days. Jared Bednar came
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: on this show yesterday and said they are treating tomorrow
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: night's game in Dallas like a playoff game. They should,
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: And because you're at home against Minnesota, so you got
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: Dallas Friday Minnesota. You win both of those games if
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: you're able to get if you're able to secure two
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: points and keep the other team off the board. Dude,
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: that division race, well you it's winding down.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Look, man, if you win these next two, I don't
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: want to say it's over, but it's kind of over.
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: Like you you have such a stranglehold on that division.
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: It feels like nobody's going.
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: To catch you. Now.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: If one game is more important than the other, it's
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: the Dallas game. If you had to pick one of
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: the two to win this weekend. It's that, but both
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: obviously important, and if you win both, you're pretty much
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: closing out any opportunity and shutting the door on people
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: having some sort of comeback outside of just an epic
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: collapse at the end of the year. But Bennar yesterday
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: hold us about this weekend, these games coming up, and
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: he said this.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: These are huge games. We are cheap Friday like a
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: playoff game.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: That's why we're trying to relax and clear the heads today.
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: We'll start focusing up tomorrow and we'll get ready on Friday. Like,
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: to me, that's that's a big one. It's a it's
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: a playoff game. We'll treat it that way. And you
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: know it's not necessarily do or die winner a home,
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: but it's a big game and I want to see
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: our guys treated that way.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: And I love it.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: You know what it did, You know what it is.
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: It's a really good practice to playoffs.
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's right, you know what it's strap lady. Even further,
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: the game Monday night Oklahoma City between the Nuggets and OKAC,
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: I don't know what you call that. Yeah, it is
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: going to be a.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: We have some audio from I can't wait to get
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: Saddleman from Bruce Brown.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: So just think about what we've got here in the
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: next few days.
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: First of all, tonight the Nuggets play the Lakers. I
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: got a late call. I'm working the game for Apple.
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: What.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm working the game Apple on this broadcast, so
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: we're not carrying it on altitude.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Oh so you're you're going to be a cartoon.
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: No, it's not a cartoon. I draw the line of cartoons.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: I'm very important. It's Apple Vision Pro. You know those
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: goggles that you can get, those Apple goggles. So if
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: you watch this game, they're broadcasting on Apple Vision Pro.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: It's that immersive stuff. So it feels like you're.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: Right there, Like it's like you got a court side seat.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh you touch You could touch me, Tonay, You
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: and I could touch if you have the Apple Vision
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: Pro goggles. I don't have those, so we can't touch.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: No, I mean I could. Where are you going?
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: Would mean where I going. I'm going to the game.
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna be right there at the game touching.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: So uh, here's what. Wait, You're just gonna be what
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: sitting courtside?
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: I'm court side, Yeah, and I'm showing people like what
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: you could do with the immersive goggles.
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: I'll wait a minute, Wait a minute. Apple has no
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: idea what they've done. They've just sh recruited you. It's
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: like the worst technological person I know to do the
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: super technological thing.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Put the goggles on.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Vic Vic just said, I'm gonna show people how to
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: use this, and I'm like, oh no.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: Dude, they're already using it.
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: I'm just there, so you're just go Are you gonna
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: watch the game through goggles?
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: No? No, I'm gonna be there sort of just explaining
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: what's going on.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: I wish I had goggles because I don't know what
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: this is.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: So this broadcast so much so in La Spectrum, which
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: carries the Lakers games, they produce the broadcast and it's
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: mainly for the folks in Los Angeles with these Apple
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: Vision pro goggles. So you have to have these Spectrum broadcasts.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: It's just what's coming down the line. Right, we're doing
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: it here in Denver. We're gonna get a good look
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: at it. It's what's coming down the line. And I'm
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: a little scared because once you get these on and
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: you watch, you can go anywhere you want. I mean,
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: you could sit there and watch the game at center
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: court if you want, why go to the game?
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: So what do they just have like a camera set
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: up over there by the where the seat is.
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Everything's immersive three sixty. Like, when you turn one way,
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: you could see it. When you turn this way, you
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: could see it. When you look up, you could see something.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: So you turn around, you see people sitting behind.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: You, You could see anything. It's all immersive three sixty all.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: Right, So hang on, let me get this straight. I
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: want to make sure try to. I want to explain
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: too much. I want to make sure you have my
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: fact straight. You are there to be the media liaison,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: the host. I'm the host, the host of the super

  Speaker 3: What the hell does that mean?
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: Okay, are these goggles? Are these the ones that like
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: you walk around your living room and there's like a
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: TV on the wall, but there's not a TV on
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: the wall. It's there's one through the goggles. Is that
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: what I'm Brett?
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: Look at me?
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: Huh?
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Do I look like I know what the hell this is?
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: Vick, you're doing the broadcast for it.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on. I'm just there talking,
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: well an old man without a prospect.
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: I'm asking the people though, is that what these things are?
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: It's like, can you plaster a one hundred inch TV
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: against the wall even though like the TV's not there,
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: and she's going through the glasses.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: It's through the goggles, through the vision pros. That's how
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: you watch the game.
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: No, I understand, but there's people that walk around their
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: house with that, and they like add things to their
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: house that isn't there. I don't know how much to
• 18:15
  Speaker 2: describe it. Nelly, do you know what I'm talking about?
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you build a virtual world, like you look at
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: your wall, but it's augmented reality. It's wall paintings on
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: the wall, but there's.
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: Paintings in TVs. And stuff on there.
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I went through this yesterday in the
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: last part of our show and we had a conversation
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: with my my robot computer. Yeah, it's getting by the way, Harry,
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: We're now going to do couples therapy because of that conversation.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: I saw Groc hit on you again on Twitter after that.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: Could you believe that hit on you?
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: For those who missed it, yesterday, Grok and I had
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: a sort of a romantic interlude toward the end of
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: the show. Yeah, and somebody broughts up brought it up
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: via Twitter, and she came back again for more.
• 19:01
  Speaker 5: Well, you don't have to be mysterious. It was it
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: was me. I'll pull a Sean Payton. It wasn't reported,
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: I stated, I put it on Twitter and I let
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: me let me find the exact caption here. I said,
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: we saw today, we watched Vic Lombardi fall in love
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: with at Grok. I added her in real time, he's
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: completely smitten with her, and we think the feelings mutual
• 19:23
  Speaker 5: heart emoji robot emoji, and she replied and said the
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: feelings one hundred percent mutual. Vic had me grinning the
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: whole time too. Thanks for the highlight reel team.
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: So then, is it any surprise that I am now
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: the face of mixed reality and immersive television.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: I guess that's what got you the call? Is it?
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: Is it any surprise people are comfortable with me talking
• 19:47
  Speaker 3: about the future. I am the future. I'm not.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: The Nuggets. Their near future is loaded up with tough
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: U punonents. Two back to backs in the next week
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: against really difficult teams, and I want to get to
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: the Lakers in the second. But yesterday David Adelman was
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: on with PhD. He was asked about the low dort apology.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: Here's what he said.
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: It's cool.
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: He said that I just think it's it happened. It
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: already happened. I don't think we really care either way.
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: The carryover will be a competitive game. We play them,
• 20:25
  Speaker 6: you know, next week, But responsibility after the fact is
• 20:29
  Speaker 6: whatever it is. Wasn't a big fan of what happened.
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: I still am not a big fan. I don't think
• 20:35
  Speaker 6: anybody in the room next to me the locker room
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: is a fan. But it's a competitive game. Two really
• 20:39
  Speaker 6: really good teams with history, same division, playing four times
• 20:43
  Speaker 6: a year last year, you know, seven game series, all
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: that stuff. So Yeah, I don't really have any emotion
• 20:47
  Speaker 6: either way. I just know what happened, saw what happened,
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: and we'll move on from there.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: They're still pissed about it.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: Well, they have emotion, they are still pissed. That's why Monday.
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: I can't wait for Monday. I cannot wait for Monday's game. Well,
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: what typically beat just another regular season game in March
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: is anything but Well, it is going to be let
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: me use the word, Monday's game is going to be immersive.
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, let me give you two more clips. They followed
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: up the difference between playing physical and cheap.
• 21:14
  Speaker 5: So what's the difference between being tough and physical and
• 21:17
  Speaker 5: being cheap?
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: Watch the clip?
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: Well said, here's Bruce Brown on the Dorort apology. His
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: action was unnecessary?
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: Does that need anything at this point that he's acknowledging that? No,
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: Do you believe I already care?
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: That is staying as a permanent fixture on my board.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: By the way, this alread we care.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you, Vic, they are. I don't know if
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: you saw the OKAC folks got ahold of the Twitter algorithm.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: They found our clip. We were talking about making lou
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: Dort feel you on Monday right, Yeah, they were not
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: happy with that.
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: Trust me, I've been immersed in immersive reaction.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: I have something to say to all those folks from OKC.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: Maybe you're listening right now, I don't know. Hell the
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: people in Greece did when we were talking about panath
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: and Ikos. Let me say something like, OKAC and I've
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: told you this before, Vic, I think it's an underrated city.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: I've been there a bunch of times. I think it's
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: a pretty cool spot. I think the way that the
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: Thunder play basketball is the way I'd want my team
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: to play basketball. I'm being dead serious about that. I
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: think the physical brand is something that gives you an
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: edge that some teams just don't have.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: They win, They want a championship because of their defense,
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: because of their hyenas.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: You have hyenas, but you have to own it. Yeah,
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: Like Vic. One of my favorite players with the Lions
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: back in the day was in Dominican Sue because he
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: played a physical, toe the line edge and I never
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: made an apology or acted like he wasn't a little
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: bit borderline. It was his game, but I loved it.
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: I think every single guy is like that, Like Vic,
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: would you love to have Loudor on this team. I would,
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: I would do would you like to have Draymond?
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: I would?
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Doesn't mean I like the guy, but I like the
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: style of play. But when you play that way, you
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: have to own it.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: You can't hide from it. Yes, you can't have your
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: head coach go up to the stage afterwards and claim
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: that they were wrong.
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: That's it, that's it. If they owned it, I'd be like,
• 23:21
  Speaker 2: you know what, nothing really I can say about it.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: But there's something about okay, see, and I mentioned this
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: for a second.
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: I'm telling you it's Dagno. He's the most inauthentic person
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: out there.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: We mentioned this for a second yesterday. But I do
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: want to get your thoughts again, Vic, now we have
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: a little bit more time. It's something I was thinking
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: and that I saw a clip from Nick Wright, and
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: it makes total sense to me. Why did lou Dort apologize.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: Because he doesn't want the reputation from the referee that
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: he is a cheap shot artist, and now they're going
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: to keep a closer look at what he does, a
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: magnifying glass on his game going into the playoffs.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: That's why the repercussions potentially coming off of that of this.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: This happened to women Yama earlier in the year. Yeah,
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: but to do that on a nationally televised game that
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: was watched by a whole lot of people, and you
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: did it to the best player in the world. Yes,
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: that led to the following day people didn't talk about
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: the game. They talked about the play you.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: They talked about you.
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: That now puts a magnifying glass and I think has
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: people looking referees looking a little bit differently at that
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: physical nature of defense.
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: It's not just Tim. I hope people now when they
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: hear Mark Dagna. We were onto this last year. Remember
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: when we were onto this, we said, this guy doesn't
• 24:39
  Speaker 3: seem like he's truthful.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: Remember that he's a little bit of a weasel.
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: Yes, I hope everybody in the NBA, everybody outside of
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: OKC and I hope I hope OKAYC fans are listening
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: to our radio show this morning. You certainly got to
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: our YouTube page. I hope you know your coach is
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: the most inauthentic person in the game. He tries to
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: protect his players, which is finny, that's what coaches are
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: supposed to do. But you're so inauthentic when you do it,
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: people roll their eyes like lou Dort's cheap shot against Joker. Hey,
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: your thoughts on that? Rather than say you know, that's
• 25:15
  Speaker 3: not who lou Is will address that as a team,
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: it was a chippy game. He went on to say, well,
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: I guess trip into flagrant tune. You know, he took
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: it a step further when he didn't have to.
• 25:27
  Speaker 7: I will say this if a player gets if Jay
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: Will is running up the floor and gets tripped, we
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: expect a flagrant too. From this point forward, he's a
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: fraud all you know, if that's the precedent, if that
• 25:39
  Speaker 7: becomes a malicious play.
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: The only way that he could save face on that
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: is if that was before he saw the clip. But
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: there's no way there's no way he didn't see it
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: by then.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: Brett, I've had the opportunity to go to a lot
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: of different places in the NBA following the Nuggets, and
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: I'm here to tell you it's not just Denver that
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: feels this way about Okay. See, it's not the entire
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: league feels this way about OKAC. They're not a very
• 26:09
  Speaker 3: well liked team. They're not like there have been champions.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: Everybody's jealous and envious of champions that comes with the territory.
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: But there was never this kind of blowback when the
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: Nuggets won a championship, when Milwaukee won a championship, when
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: Boston won a championship, and you hear the blowback, they're
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: cheating the game, Mike Brown. Last night, Nicks okase. I
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: don't know if you watched any of that. Last night,
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: Knicks lose and okayse does its usual OKAC stuff. What
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: does OKC do? What do they do? What do we
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: claim they do as basketball fans? Don't listen to me,
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: listen to another NBA coach. Get in line, because every
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: NBA coach has the same thing to say about Shay Gilgris,
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: Alexander and Okac sga is he's a cover. He does
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: a great job of convincing the referees, probably better than
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: anybody in the league that you know he's getting hit.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, what is he doing there?
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: He flops, That's what he's saying. Wasn't there supposed to
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: be correct me if I'm wrong, Vick, isn't there a
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: rule that's put in place now? Can't the refs throw it?
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen one of those flop calls all season.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen lots.
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: It's a wasteful rules it's in place, and nobody ever
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: calls it waste of time, wasting my time in your time. Again,
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: I am not speaking into this microphone on behalf of
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: the Denver Nuggets here, although we are a Denver station.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: I get it. I'm telling OKAC fans, you better figure
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: this out because you don't have to figure anything else.
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: But when you think that all we just hate you
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: because you beat the no no. The entire league hates you.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: Just you know, embrace it. Embrace your villainous role.
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: And I know I know Mike Brown was frustrated, but
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: a year or two ago, he actually gave us the
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: formula for what he needs to do as a coach
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: to win ball games.
• 28:07
  Speaker 6: We just need to be methodical by stacking or playing
• 28:10
  Speaker 6: the right way. Possession after possession, after possession, after possession.
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: After possession, the whole clip, the whole clip after possession.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: How many How long does that last?
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: Thirteen of them after possession? Maybe eighteen?
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: This isn't some after some glitch, by the way, this
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: is actually what he said into a microphone a couple
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: of years ago.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: He didn't stop after possession.
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: All right, cut that off? Driving me nuts, Nelly, pull
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: up what I told you to pull up? Because here's
• 28:37
  Speaker 2: the other thing. And this bothered me more than like
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: anything from yesterday.
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: What's going on here?
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: What is the coat that?
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: When I saw that, I was like, okay, all right,
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: all right?
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Does he not look like a guy who went to
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: a kid's birthday party and took the head off for
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: a smoke break.
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: He looks like a guy who lost out on the
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: Sesame Street audition.
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's snuffle up agains. I'm trying to figure out fake.
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: You're a fashion guy, you you know how how many
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: of these coats are in stock? And how many do
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: they sell? And what do they go for? And how
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: many people have bought them? This is what I want
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: to know. These are the questions I need answers to.
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: That's insane, just another layer to why they're the most
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: hate Herble team in recent memory. What are you doing?
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: Is that his version of Mark Dagno's quarter zip all
• 29:34
  Speaker 3: the way up to the chin? You know, it's it's
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: almost it's almost a metaphor for the Okac Thunder reputation.
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: They're hiding from something, they want to hide their face
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: in shame. That's what that is.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: He looks like the kid from a Christmas story, all
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: bundled up to go out.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: I just.
• 30:01
  Speaker 2: You can't be confused as to why people feel the
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: way you do. And and Vic, how difficult is it
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: in sports to get some like universal feeling behind something.
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: And the crazy thing is after that dort play, I
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: didn't see a single person that didn't have OKC in
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: their Twitter bio or something like that that was like
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: screw this team.
• 30:24
  Speaker 3: Like, like someone said here, Jason in lovel And says
• 30:27
  Speaker 3: the Warriors were more hated than the thunder I disagree.
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: The Warriors, first of all, were true dynasty. The Warriors,
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: that was the era where Steph Curry and Klay Thompson
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: changed the game. They weren't hated. Draymond was hated Draymond.
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: But but that team, the way they played, they weren't hated.
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: They became tired of them.
• 30:44
  Speaker 2: They became hated when Kadie went there.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but they people grew tired of them because they
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: kept winning. But there isn't this different enmity that exists
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: with OKAC and their style of play. Yesterday I asked
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: David Adelman at practice all right, so you see what
• 31:00
  Speaker 3: teams are doing, then Nikoliokic, should we save that or
• 31:04
  Speaker 3: do you want to get into it?
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: Now?
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: Let's save it?
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: Save it?
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because I thought his response speaks volumes about what
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: the Nuggets hope to do to counter how teams are
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: guarding Nikoliokic.
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: We'll give to that in just a little bit. The
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: keyword for this hour is cuff, So text that in
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: your first and last name to three zero three five
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: four nine two five. Jeff Lagwald will join us at
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: nine o'clock this morning. Stick around, hey, Denver golfers. It's
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: time for the Colorado Golf Expo, and it's better than
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: ever tomorrow through Sunday, the eighth that the National Western
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: Center loaded with gear Tech simulators, a full indoor driving range,
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: and free parking. We'll see you at National Western Center tomorrow.
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: VIC.
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: Just quickly before we get back to sports, Nellie and
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: I were talking over there in that little kitchen area.
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: It's a fantastic point and I'm not going to call
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: out the person who's doing this, but this is like
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: girl scout cookie time, right, and look, I like myself
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: a nice samoa every now and then.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: Oh, someone is someone bringing them to the to the yard,
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: bringing the milkshakes to the yard.
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: Here's the problem. Nelly said this, and he's so right.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: You aren't gonna come in here and get me to
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: buy girl Scout cookies with me scanning a QR code.
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: If I'm gonna buy the cookies, I'm buying them from
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: a Girl Scout. You aren't gonna cheap your way through
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: and have me just scan something on the phone. I
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: need the salesmanship. I'm not gonna I totally agree it.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, now you're onto something that really you
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: just triggered.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: Scanning the code. I need somebody.
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: To do the selling advic they do that this Wow,
• 32:45
  Speaker 5: my voice cracked. If get all fired up here. This
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: person does it every year. They bring in a sheet
• 32:49
  Speaker 5: of paper with a QR code and says, scan this
• 32:51
  Speaker 5: in order online to buy.
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: I don't I'm not naming names somebody.
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: All right, here's here's my thoughts on this. Because all
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: of our kids have gone and yours will to your
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: daughters will go through this. You go through the youth
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: sports you know the preamble of selling whatever you need
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: to sell to make money for the program. And we've
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: all had to do this. I remember sitting in front
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: of the Safeway on forty fourth and Lowell over there,
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: the one that we did the live shop from. I'd
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: sit there for countless hours trying to sell stuff, right, to.
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: Raise money for raising one, to do this and that
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: and yep, but I did it.
• 33:25
  Speaker 3: My parents never did it right. I have a legit
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: problem when parents take the reins of selling things for
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: their kids. I agree, I I'm sorry. I have a
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: problem with that. Either the kid has some sweat equity
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: in it, or you don't get my money.
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now, Vic, I'm a sucker for it.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: Like if I'm walking out of the King Soupers and
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: those there's two little cute girls in their girl Scout.
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: You got me, I'll buy one.
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: Do you know how many times I'm writing my vestpah
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: on a crisp summer night and I'm going to eliminate.
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: I will see that lemonade standing. I'll say, you know
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: what you got me because you're working.
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: Yes, I do this everyone that I see. I stop
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: every one I see.
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: But if a parent shows up and says buy this
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: for my kid, no, not doing it. No. And the
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: other thing, I'm very quid pro quo about this stuff.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: It's just ingrained. Let me tell you something. If I'm
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: gonna buy something from your kid, by god, you better
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: buy something from mine. But you're laughing. I agree with you,
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: you're laughing. I keep score of that stuff. I keep score.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: You got running tabs on people keep Oh?
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: I keep score. Yeah. I got a big Italian family,
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: and we sell each other these little things all the time.
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: I'm always comping hawks. We have a journal. I have
• 34:47
  Speaker 3: a journal. I actually don't doubt this at all. Back
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: in March of eighteen, I bought some raffle tickets for
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: your kids baseball team. Oh no, that's the way it's
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: gonna work. I'm with you, man, I mean, and you
• 35:03
  Speaker 3: know what really disturbs me is there's always a prize
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: at the end for the kid that sells the most. Yeah, right, whatever,
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: You should be automatically eliminated. If your parents did most
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: of the selling for you, why is that kid get
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: the prize? No, I agree, it's not the way. This
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: is not proper.
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: You bring the girl scout in front of me. I
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: will buy it. I'm not scanning the code.
• 35:26
  Speaker 3: Oh, Hastings is gonna kill us on his show. I
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: know he is. I wouldn't mention names. I why don't
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: you mention names?
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: Because the name was not important. The the the act
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: is important. That's why. So, Vick, you wanted to set
• 35:42
  Speaker 2: something up with David Adaman. Here go ahead. Oh I've
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: lost him. I've lost him.
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: Sorry, it just I'm my my brain. When I had
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: to raise money to go down this bas we had,
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: let me tell you this is a true story. Let
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: me just share this story very quick. Me and my
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: buddy Todd Miller, we had to raise fifteen hundred dollars
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: to play on this traveling basketball team. We were eighteen
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: years old. We went to China, played in Hong Kong.
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: Really yeah, And so we're going door to door and
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: we have this whole stick.
• 36:15
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: We had to tell people what it was. We had
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: all the proof, and we went to this place in
• 36:21
  Speaker 3: Westminster and this old crotchety dude didn't believe us. He
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: welcomed us into his kitchen and he thought we were
• 36:29
  Speaker 3: out to get him. Oh and I'm not joking when
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: I say this.
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: He held us Wait, how old were you?
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: Eighteen? Okay? He held us hostage in his kitchen, said no,
• 36:40
  Speaker 3: you can't go anywhere, like, dude, we'll leave it. No. No,
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: he and his wife held us hostage. He picked up
• 36:45
  Speaker 3: the phone, called the cops, tried to call our parents,
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: claiming we were trying to fleece him of funds for this.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: Sounds like he got kidnapped pretty much.
• 36:55
  Speaker 3: I did get you. No, that's kind of the definition
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: of being kidnapped. So maybe this is a little sense
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: to me because we had to walk the streets.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: Well, I remember for my baseball team, we had to
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: sell you know, those big books of coupons like, oh,
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: three thousand dollars in savings.
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we walked the streets. YEP.
• 37:15
  Speaker 2: I had to do it anyway, Vick, you wanted to
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: set something up with David Adaman from.
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: Yesterday Yesterday David Almond I practice and by the way,
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: Nuggets fans tonight, no Nuggets and Lakers big game, the
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: first of seven big games seven. I don't think they're
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: gonna have Peyton Watson and Aaron Gordon. They're already listed
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: as out and Spencer Jones is out. I was hoping
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: that Watson and or Gordon would be available for this game.
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: They're hoping that Gordon is available tomorrow night against the
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: Knicks practice yesterday. Peyton Watson did very little. Gordon afterwards
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: shooting around with coaches. I just don't know about their availability.
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: I don't, So that's that's bad news. That's the bad news. Yeah.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: The way the Nuggets are going to deal with Joker
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: moving forward and the way teams are guarding Joker. You
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: saw what Utah did. They put a small in front
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: of him, in fronted him every time, made it tough
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: for him to get the ball. They made him bend
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: his body in ways it doesn't bend. It just turned
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: into a circus act. We all saw it. Yeah, right,
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: So what are you gonna do about it? Here's David Adaman's.
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: Response, and what that leads to is what we saw,
• 38:25
  Speaker 6: you know in the OKC game and in the Utah
• 38:27
  Speaker 6: game where he takes a shot in the midsection in
• 38:29
  Speaker 6: Utah and the knee and OKC. So I can sit
• 38:32
  Speaker 6: here and complain about it, or we just have to
• 38:35
  Speaker 6: be more aggressive as a team to attack when three
• 38:38
  Speaker 6: people are guarding one, take advantage of it. Trust yourself,
• 38:41
  Speaker 6: you know. We'll try to get into cole in space
• 38:42
  Speaker 6: as best we can put the worst defender and catch
• 38:45
  Speaker 6: a shoot situations whatever it may be so we can
• 38:47
  Speaker 6: get a clean touch, but we know what Nicole is.
• 38:49
  Speaker 6: We catch his ball, he's gonna make the right decision.
• 38:52
  Speaker 6: It's my job to get in the ball.
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: He also said nobody is guarded like that. And when
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: he says nobody's guarded like that, if you back a
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: little more on that sound by Nelly, nobody in the NBA,
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: especially in the MVP, is guarded like NICOLEA. Jokic is guarded.
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: What do you mean? What do you think he means
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: when he says.
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: That that nobody's jostled?
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: Probably. Now, this is the weird thing about Jokic.
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: He's so.
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: He's so unique. Nobody's guarded the way that he's guarded
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: because nobody plays the way that he plays. Nobody's seven
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: feet who does what he does like, Nobody moves the
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: way that he does. Nobody has the touch that he has,
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: Nobody has all that stuff. And it really does feel
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: like the only way you can really get after him
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: is to frustrate him.
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: So tell me, if if you're running the nuggets, then
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: what is your counter move? Because he mentioned they've got
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: to find more creative ways, They've got to get people moving.
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: I think what happens a lot is what happens to
• 39:51
  Speaker 3: us when we're watching the game. A lot of his
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: teammates watch yeah instead of move.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: There is a lot at the end of that Utah game, Vic,
• 39:59
  Speaker 2: there was a lot of guys just standing standing outside
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: the three point line waiting for like a kickout pass
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: instead of like where's the cutter or something like that.
• 40:08
  Speaker 2: And that's something I think you miss with Aaron Gordon
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: a ton.
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: Now.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: I know that Gordon's become become a lot more of
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: a shooter, but you miss the cutters to the hoop
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: where defenders have to be aware of their own guy
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: A lot of times. What they do when you got
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: three dudes standing around the three point line and it's
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: just Jokic and Jamal handling the basketball, what do the
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: defenders do. They sag off of their guy, kind of
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: keep them at an arm's length, but their eyes are
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: always on Jokic, They're always on Murray because it feels
• 40:37
  Speaker 2: like that's all they have to worry about. Like, I
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: think what you could do if they want to front
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: Jokic with a small guy, if they want to have
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: their big man play Rover and put small dude on Jokic,
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: get Jokic the ball deep, like have that entry pass
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: with him on the block and not the yell.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: But but sometimes, and this is where we've made different
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: it's hard to get that entry pass deep because there's
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: too many bodies around. It's not an easy It's not
• 41:00
  Speaker 3: as easy as it looks. Everybody makes it sound like.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: One about hay on An. I don't think it's easy.
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: Just you can keep going. I don't think it's easy, though.
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: It would be a counter that I had, is that
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: attempt to get him lower, so that it could be
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: if you've got a small guy on him, if he's
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: got somebody that's this tall, that that's at his his navel,
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: then just catch turn throw a layup up there.
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: I've got simple counters too that maybe again tonight we're
• 41:24
  Speaker 3: going to see it with the Lakers. I'm curious to
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: see what the Lakers employ. Are they going to go
• 41:28
  Speaker 3: with the RUI cover again? Now they're gonna put Marcus
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: Smart on him to take his legs out. I don't know,
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: we'll see the other thing you can employ is pretty simple.
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: If if if Utah throws that that guy Herkless was
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: his name, the little guy on him. Then whoever's guardian
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: herkless on the other side has got to let him,
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: has got to remind him. You can't do that right
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: reminders Yep, just a little simple reminder.
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: And it can't be yok it's the one to do it.
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: Can't get no teammates have to come out and do it. Well,
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: that's not suggesting you have to be cheap, but you
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: you're gonna you're really I mean, you're playing in games right,
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: You're watching your big guy get beat up. What are
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: you gonna do about it?
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: That's why I think this Bruce Brown response on Ludort's apology,
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: I think it says more than what he actually says.
• 42:13
  Speaker 6: It Felt's action was unnecessary, does not need anything at
• 42:16
  Speaker 6: this point that he's acknowledging that.
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: No, do you believe I don't really care.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: I I really think that they are now wholly aware
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: of what's happening to Jokic and that they need to
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: respond in kind. That doesn't mean like punch somebody in
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: the face, but do the exact same thing back. If
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: that's what's being allowed, then have that go both ways.
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: Trouble is, I mean, how do you do that to Shaef?
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: He's wearing that wooly mammoth costume during the game is true.
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: Jokic has a huge disadvantage, which is he's allowed to
• 42:55
  Speaker 2: get beat up because it's the size differential thing that
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: the refs don't recognize. It just looks different when a
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: small guy gets hit, it looks different than when Jo
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: gets hit.
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: When a fly hits a windshield, it's a little different
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: than when a pterodactyl hits one.
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, something like that spelled pterodactyl, by the way, right
• 43:17
  Speaker 2: now on the spot starts with the p T what's
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: going on there? I do have a problem in the
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: English language. Why do we have silent letters? What's the
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: purpose of a silent letter? Dumb?
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: Why?
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: Why the B? Why not just dum? What's the B?
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: Full?
• 43:37
  Speaker 4: A lot?
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of silent letters like pterodactyl? What's up
• 43:42
