- 1:18Speaker 1: At one point I sent him Mark Jackson. At one
- 1:21Speaker 1: point I think I sent him John Starks. Perhaps it

- 1:27Speaker 1: sent him Rory Sparrow and Taylor, please go ahead and
- 1:30Speaker 1: tell Mikey a He responded when I sent you Rory

- 1:39Speaker 4: who and why his?
- 1:41Speaker 1: And why are you giving me a number in China
- 1:44Speaker 1: for Stefan Marberry.
- 1:46Speaker 4: The number he sent me for Stefan Marberry Mikey was
- 1:48Speaker 4: like forty five digits.
- 1:50Speaker 3: Yet I just let that I go.
- 1:52Speaker 4: He's not in China anymore. I know he lives there.
- 1:55Speaker 3: I mean I believe he does. I have no idea.

- 2:02Speaker 1: were amazed by that, right I sent you Oakley.
- 2:04Speaker 3: I think I said you amazed it at one point.
- 2:07Speaker 4: So I was impressed by it until I started texting everyone,
- 2:10Speaker 4: and then every message was just Green, and I'm like,
- 2:13Speaker 4: so none of these, none of these numbers.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Are active anymore, even Bernard Kings, I mean especially Bernard Kings.
- 2:21Speaker 3: Did you try Sparrow at all?
- 2:22Speaker 1: I mean no, no, we didn't get any response from
- 2:26Speaker 1: I gotta be honest.
- 2:26Speaker 3: I'm not quite certain what I would have done with
- 2:28Speaker 3: Rory Sparrow if he were on.
- 2:30Speaker 4: I mean, be sure it wasn't a landline he sent you.
- 2:33Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I have I have Fibideau's number.
- 2:37Speaker 1: You want it, I mean, good luck asking him. He's
- 2:42Speaker 1: not enjoying this, So Taylor, do the audience a favor here.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Taylor's been well. Jalen Brunton has changed his life, and
- 2:51Speaker 1: so much so he has written four songs and sang
- 2:55Speaker 1: all of them on this radio program, and I am
- 2:57Speaker 1: proud of him. But four is not enough. This man
- 3:01Speaker 1: is so excited for the NBA Finals. He just released
- 3:04Speaker 1: the fourth last week and now he has a fifth.
- 3:07Speaker 1: So play one of the first four, any of the
- 3:09Speaker 1: first four, so the audience can get a sample of
- 3:12Speaker 1: what it is you're doing here.
- 3:13Speaker 4: So I'm gonna play my favorite one.
- 3:20Speaker 1: So good.
- 3:33Speaker 4: I come back from a guardian night.
- 3:36Speaker 5: My mother has that the Nix must have lost rye. Oh,
- 3:41Speaker 5: mother dear, we're now the fortune it ones. New York
- 3:45Speaker 5: has Jalen Brunson.
- 3:47Speaker 6: Hun.
- 3:48Speaker 5: Oh, New York has Jalen Brunson. The bon in his
- 3:59Speaker 5: hand and the score is tight. My father, yell, best
- 4:04Speaker 5: thing to happen in my life, Oh, daddy dear, signing
- 4:08Speaker 5: him is number one.
- 4:10Speaker 4: New York has Jalen brunt Son. Hun.
- 4:14Speaker 5: Oh, New York really has these all.
- 4:17Speaker 4: We really want.
- 4:21Speaker 7: Brunson when the game went, it is done because New
- 4:28Speaker 7: York has Jalen brunts No, New New York has.
- 4:33Speaker 5: Jalen brun Son. Jalen brun Son, Jalen brun Son.
- 4:43Speaker 1: It's beautiful, it really is. We are nearing an album here.
- 4:47Speaker 1: I want all of these songs. I want him on
- 4:48Speaker 1: a CD. I want to sell them and make Taylor
- 4:51Speaker 1: some extra money.
- 4:52Speaker 3: Here.
- 4:53Speaker 1: People will buy it, mikey Well, people buy this, they will.
- 4:55Speaker 8: Right, Yes, Unfortunately they will, and they'll debate which song
- 5:00Speaker 8: is the best, which one is their favorite? Yes, which
- 5:02Speaker 8: one could have climbed the charts?
- 5:03Speaker 1: Yes? And perhaps we should consider getting this to Jalen
- 5:06Speaker 1: Brunton or a representative to show him how much Taylor
- 5:09Speaker 1: loves him. And we can get him on the show
- 5:11Speaker 1: to break down all the songs. Now we have a
- 5:13Speaker 1: fifth song, Go ahead, Taylor.
- 5:15Speaker 4: So the biggest shame in all this is that we're
- 5:17Speaker 4: in America because your singing voice, no, no, the same
- 5:21Speaker 4: voice is just is just the vessel for the song. Yes,
- 5:25Speaker 4: if we were in England, this song, these songs would
- 5:29Speaker 4: be on repeat. Yes, at those stadiums and at those arenas,
- 5:32Speaker 4: with the entire crowd singing these songs.
- 5:36Speaker 3: Yes, bangers, no question about it. What will we name
- 5:38Speaker 3: the album? Change my life? All right? So four is
- 5:47Speaker 3: not enough? Doing one last week?
- 5:49Speaker 1: Was it enough? I asked you to kind of reel
- 5:51Speaker 1: it back, dial it back here because we've merely made
- 5:54Speaker 1: the NBA Finals. We haven't won anything yet. But you decided, Nah,
- 5:58Speaker 1: I'm not going to dial it back. First time in
- 6:00Speaker 1: my lifetime. The Knicks are playing the NBA Finals. Here's
- 6:03Speaker 1: a fifth for.
- 6:04Speaker 9: You, Jaylen.
- 6:21Speaker 6: Bron song James Halling You are a bomb. The Knicks
- 6:34Speaker 6: will win East in four games, and it's because they've
- 6:40Speaker 6: got jam Heylyn Brahe song James Harden You're still a bum.
- 6:56Speaker 4: The Browns are now all hold for you. Enjoy con.
- 7:07Speaker 3: You told him to enjoy Game two.
- 7:10Speaker 4: I love this team so much too. I have a
- 7:12Speaker 4: list of teams with more than ten consecutive playoff wins.
- 7:16Speaker 1: Right Durant Steph Warriors, Yes, well Steph's Warriors.
- 7:20Speaker 4: Right, Duncan and Robinson Spurs.
- 7:23Speaker 1: Duncan and Robin not Duncan Robinson, Tim Duncan and David Robinson.
- 7:27Speaker 4: Yes, Kobe and Shaq's Lakers, okay, right, Magic and James
- 7:32Speaker 4: Worthyes Lakers.
- 7:33Speaker 1: Wow the game James and.
- 7:35Speaker 4: Now Jalen Brunson and Karl Anthony Towns's Nicks.
- 7:40Speaker 3: Who doesn't belong?
- 7:42Speaker 1: Well?
- 7:43Speaker 4: Four more games and then then we're gonna be in
- 7:45Speaker 4: some great company.
- 7:46Speaker 1: Oh we really are one to ninety three. I don't
- 7:49Speaker 1: want to hear about the caves and the caves quitting
- 7:51Speaker 1: and the caves they put maximum effort. I told you
- 7:54Speaker 1: the series was over when Donovan Mitchell, it was over
- 7:57Speaker 1: before began. Taylor w Donnavan Mitchell comes to the podium
- 8:02Speaker 1: after winning in the Eastern Conference semi finals. That says, whoo,
- 8:06Speaker 1: I could breathe now I've made it to the conference finals.
- 8:10Speaker 1: That was a destination for the Cavaliers. It would have
- 8:13Speaker 1: been a disappointment had the next season ended in the
- 8:16Speaker 1: Conference finals for the Calves. Great season. I could breathe now.
- 8:21Speaker 1: The point is not to make it to the Eastern
- 8:23Speaker 1: Conference Finals. It's take a deep breath and get ready
- 8:26Speaker 1: for the Eastern Conference Finals and make it to the
- 8:28Speaker 1: NBA Finals. I knew this series was done when Donovan
- 8:32Speaker 1: Mitchell was satisfied just making it to the Eastern Conference Finals.
- 8:35Speaker 1: It was a weird statement at a weird time for
- 8:38Speaker 1: a great player.
- 8:39Speaker 4: There was also the moment after Game one of the
- 8:41Speaker 4: Eastern Conference Finals where the Calves have that historic choke,
- 8:45Speaker 4: the Knicks make the comeback at Madison Square Garden, and
- 8:49Speaker 4: that Cavs team sounded so defeated. But Stu, I think
- 8:52Speaker 4: you could go back even further to figure out when
- 8:54Speaker 4: this series was over. It was when the Calves traded
- 8:57Speaker 4: for James Harden.
- 9:01Speaker 3: Put it on the poll.
- 9:03Speaker 1: Was the series over the second the Cavs traded for
- 9:06Speaker 1: jim Harden.
- 9:08Speaker 4: Can I thank somebody today, Stu?
- 9:10Speaker 3: Yes, Jimbo, Jimbo.
- 9:13Speaker 4: This is almost this almost has the feeling of that
- 9:15Speaker 4: I'm giving a thank you speech. Yes, I want to
- 9:20Speaker 4: thank Malcolm Brogden, because if you remember last summer, Malcolm
- 9:24Speaker 4: Brogden signed with the Knicks. Everybody started talking themselves into
- 9:26Speaker 4: Malcolm Brogden, a couple of years removed from being the
- 9:29Speaker 4: sixth Man of the Year. A couple of days later
- 9:31Speaker 4: he retires. He he opens up a spot for this
- 9:34Speaker 4: Knicks team. And what do they do with that last
- 9:36Speaker 4: guaranteed spot on the roster? They sign Landry Shammitt. Landry
- 9:41Speaker 4: Shammitt shot eleven of twelve from three in the Eastern
- 9:44Speaker 4: Conference Finals ninety one point six percent, the first player
- 9:48Speaker 4: with ten plus threes on eighty plus three point percentage
- 9:51Speaker 4: in a conference finals history.
- 9:53Speaker 1: So you've decided not to thank Shamman himself, but Brogden
- 9:56Speaker 1: for us allowing us to get Shammitt.
- 9:58Speaker 4: Yeah, it was one of them. If Jalen Brunt since
- 10:00Speaker 4: the best free agency signing in the NBA, Yes, Malcolm
- 10:03Speaker 4: Brogden signing plus retirement is right up there in the
- 10:07Speaker 4: top five.
- 10:07Speaker 1: The S and sham it stands for sweep. Is Kenny
- 10:10Speaker 1: Atkinson going nuts? Seriously? Is he out of his mind?
- 10:13Speaker 1: Kenny Atkinson's gonna get fired? Is he not? If not today,
- 10:16Speaker 1: at some point in the next couple of days, you
- 10:17Speaker 1: don't think South Taylor he.
- 10:19Speaker 4: Has been one of the biggest losers in this entire
- 10:21Speaker 4: thing where you almost This is where if you're super famous,
- 10:26Speaker 4: if you're a celebrity, if you're anybody with some kind
- 10:28Speaker 4: of status, you can't surround yourself with yes man, Kenny Atkinson.
- 10:33Speaker 4: Somebody in Kenny Atkinson's friend group has to say, hey, Kenny,
- 10:36Speaker 4: let me know what you're gonna say before you go
- 10:38Speaker 4: to the podium here, because nobody would have heard him say, hey,
- 10:42Speaker 4: we've won the first two out of three games. Analytically, yes,
- 10:45Speaker 4: nobody would have let Kenny act. Nobody would have let
- 10:47Speaker 4: a true friend go up there and embarrass himself the
- 10:49Speaker 4: way Kenny Atkinson did.
- 10:50Speaker 3: Someone should have stopped them.
- 10:51Speaker 1: You're right, listen, when you trade for James Harden, it's
- 10:55Speaker 1: on you.
- 10:56Speaker 3: This is what happens when you trade for James.
- 10:58Speaker 1: It might go well for a couple of series, It
- 11:00Speaker 1: might go well for a couple of games, it might
- 11:01Speaker 1: go well for a couple of weeks. But eventually you're
- 11:03Speaker 1: gonna crash, and you're gonna crash hard, and you're gonna
- 11:06Speaker 1: blame everything on James Harden when you should be blaming
- 11:08Speaker 1: yourself for acquiring James Harden. How about that? I mean,
- 11:12Speaker 1: Jimbo Jimmy harden As Beaumonti Jones likes to call um
- 11:18Speaker 1: that guy is that he's lost his mind as well.
- 11:21Speaker 1: I tell you, the Calves are talking like they're preparing
- 11:23Speaker 1: for the NBA Finals, like they're still playing this season.
- 11:26Speaker 3: It's over, crazy people. It wasn't even gloves yet they
- 11:32Speaker 3: still think they're up three games to one.
- 11:35Speaker 1: Oh my god, all right, we'll take a quick time out.
- 11:37Speaker 1: Go ahead, Taylor.
- 11:38Speaker 4: I was gonna say on the Cavs subject. The Calves
- 11:41Speaker 4: finished the playoffs with a record of eight and ten.
- 11:44Speaker 4: That's the worst possible potential record of a team that
- 11:47Speaker 4: loses in the conference finals.
- 11:48Speaker 9: Could be.
- 11:49Speaker 3: Were you happy we avoided the Pistons because I was.
- 11:52Speaker 4: I mean, seriously, yeah, Pistons are tough. I listen. Cleveland
- 11:56Speaker 4: absolute pathetic team, absolute pathetic franchise. They didn't have a
- 11:59Speaker 4: little James this this time around to save them. Detroit
- 12:04Speaker 4: at least has some roll up their sleeves. Detroit basketball
- 12:07Speaker 4: to them.
- 12:07Speaker 1: Yes, so we have the weekend observations coming up here,
- 12:11Speaker 1: but we don't have Dan dan Byer of course, so

- 12:26Speaker 4: Sam's in the mopen right now. Sam's warming on.
- 12:29Speaker 8: I could hear Iowa Sam panicking every time you ask
- 12:32Speaker 8: him one of those questions that he's going to get

- 13:18Speaker 1: have told Taylor here to dial it back today to
- 13:21Speaker 1: learn from my mistakes over twenty plus years of being
- 13:24Speaker 1: in this industry, being behind the microphone and saying things
- 13:28Speaker 1: putting the cart before the horse.
- 13:30Speaker 4: Ricardo, I can't listen to this anymore. Give me the music.
- 13:33Speaker 4: What oh jesus, Trevis Kelsey, what couldn't even bother showing
- 13:38Speaker 4: up for Game four? But don't feel bad, Trevis, Neither
- 13:41Speaker 4: do the Cavs red Kenny Atkinson, saying the Calves analytically
- 13:48Speaker 4: won two of the first three games. Jenny put that
- 13:51Speaker 4: on a betner and then shove it up your what
- 13:56Speaker 4: Dinavan Mitchell? More like done?
- 13:59Speaker 3: Ovid Mitchell Donevan.
- 14:02Speaker 4: Dean Wade fitting your box score, says d Wade. Series
- 14:08Speaker 4: was over in a flash.
- 14:12Speaker 1: See what he did there, flashed way Wade.
- 14:14Speaker 4: Jared Allen Taffro got picked out as much as the
- 14:18Speaker 4: Calves got picked apart.
- 14:25Speaker 3: I'm gonna get carried away.
- 14:26Speaker 4: Give it to him again, Carl, Give it to me again.
- 14:29Speaker 3: Give it to him again.
- 14:30Speaker 4: What JAYLEB Brunson said any time he saw James Harden
- 14:34Speaker 4: guarding him. If James Harden was on Cleveland's baseball team,
- 14:40Speaker 4: they wouldn't be called the Guardians. They'd be called the
- 14:43Speaker 4: Ians because he won't guard a thing.
- 14:48Speaker 1: The Ians.
- 14:50Speaker 4: For the first time in the history of mankind, celebrities
- 14:54Speaker 4: went to Cleveland on purpose. You're welcome, Cleveland. The act Skins,
- 15:00Speaker 4: diet cuts carbs to lose weight. Well, the Kenny Atkinson
- 15:04Speaker 4: diet is all about building twenty point leads to lose
- 15:08Speaker 4: Kame Brian Winhors called Dean Wade the Jalen Brunson.
- 15:16Speaker 3: Stop her, that's all you have.
- 15:20Speaker 1: Give it to him again, Give it to him again,
- 15:23Speaker 1: born out Ricardo.
- 15:25Speaker 4: I keep seeing people say, where do the Cavs go
- 15:28Speaker 4: from here? Can Coon Cobo turks and cacos. I don't
- 15:34Speaker 4: give her where you go.
- 15:36Speaker 3: Kenny Atkinson thinks he's going to the finals.
- 15:39Speaker 4: James Harden, I get a hold anytime I say Brunson
- 15:44Speaker 4: matched up against you? You traffic cone home, James Cleveland.
- 15:52Speaker 4: You have the Cleveland Cultural Gardens. We have the Gardens Mecca.
- 16:00Speaker 4: The lights were too bright for James Harden. He prefers
- 16:04Speaker 4: his room dark, with music and scantily dressed women.
- 16:15Speaker 3: Those of us who don't play basketball.
- 16:17Speaker 1: Give it to him again, Give it to him again again.
- 16:22Speaker 4: Cleveland is the birthplace of Jake Paul. That makes sense
- 16:27Speaker 4: because the Cabs got knocked out as soon as they
- 16:30Speaker 4: saw a real team. James Harden, you should be embarrassed.
- 16:37Speaker 4: Shames Harden not playing anymore games. Harden heading to Kkun
- 16:42Speaker 4: on a plane's Harden. The Cleveland's downtown area once had
- 16:49Speaker 4: more millionaires per capita than almost any US city. Then
- 16:53Speaker 4: they woke up and realized they could be anywhere else Mobley.

- 17:04Speaker 4: Mobley last night. He's good to Smicbride, so on your
- 17:11Speaker 4: entire franchise, Cleveland.
- 17:13Speaker 3: Again, Give it to him again.

- 17:22Speaker 1: mistake after mistake after mistake by the Lake.
- 17:25Speaker 4: The Calves won as many games this series as there
- 17:29Speaker 4: are things to do in all of Cleveland. Cleveland, you

- 20:00Speaker 1: He wants it again, Ricardo, give it to him again.
- 20:05Speaker 4: Cleveland used to be called beleveland now they have to
- 20:08Speaker 4: Cleveland because the finals is something they will never achieved
- 20:12Speaker 4: land ever.
- 20:13Speaker 3: Again.
- 20:16Speaker 4: Steve got to help me out here.
- 20:17Speaker 8: Oh h oh h i oh h io, oh ah io.
- 20:25Speaker 4: Now do it back to me. Oh h I owe
- 20:28Speaker 4: everybody an apology. You're saying Mix in five, especially Hugh
- 20:33Speaker 4: Jaylon Brunton. I'm so sorry. It's still not as sorry
- 20:37Speaker 4: as James Harden wants off series.
- 20:40Speaker 3: I had him in four heavy.
- 20:42Speaker 4: New York City always ranks at the dirtiest city in
- 20:47Speaker 4: all of America. Yet our basketball team can't stop so bad.
- 20:58Speaker 4: He's not gonna be on the radio. He's done.
- 21:01Speaker 3: My voice is day to day.
- 21:02Speaker 11: He is fried at Please the defending NBA champions or
- 21:07Speaker 11: the best player.
- 21:08Speaker 3: In the world isn't waiting for us in the finals.
- 21:13Speaker 1: I loved it so Mikey on a day that I
- 21:14Speaker 1: asked Taylor not to get carried away because I've been
- 21:17Speaker 1: doing this for twenty plus years and you don't want
- 21:19Speaker 1: people throwing this stuff back in your face. And we
- 21:21Speaker 1: haven't won anything yet other than the Eastern Conference. We
- 21:24Speaker 1: made it to the NBA Finals on a day I
- 21:26Speaker 1: told him to rein it back. It seems like he
- 21:29Speaker 1: hasn't done that.
- 21:31Speaker 4: He hasn't come close to raining it back.
- 21:33Speaker 8: As a matter of fact, I think he's doubled down
- 21:35Speaker 8: and then doubled down again.
- 21:36Speaker 1: Yes, he gave us a fifth Jalen Brunson saw him
- 21:39Speaker 1: because four isn't enough and a rant, I mean, And
- 21:43Speaker 1: he wanted me to do the rant, and I said,
- 21:45Speaker 1: I'm not ranting because it hurts my voice. And I'm
- 21:47Speaker 1: not ranting until the Knicks actually accomplished something, And by
- 21:50Speaker 1: accomplish something, I mean not make it to the NBA Finals,
- 21:54Speaker 1: win the whole damn thing.
- 21:55Speaker 4: Can I tell you guys who I have a problem
- 21:57Speaker 4: with today, Yeah, Peter Schrager. That guy, Peter Scher has
- 22:02Speaker 4: no shame. Peter Schrager can stick it where the bleep
- 22:06Speaker 4: don't shine.
- 22:07Speaker 3: Okay, because Peter.
- 22:08Speaker 4: Schrager tweeted there, I got nervous, Mikey, I'll put it
- 22:16Speaker 4: on the pole, Mikey.
- 22:17Speaker 1: Is that the first time in radio history that someone
- 22:20Speaker 1: has bleeped themselves saying the sun.
- 22:24Speaker 4: So Peter Schrager tweets yesterday after the game, all are
- 22:28Speaker 4: welcome on this Knicks rod. No gate keeping here. Bandwagon
- 22:32Speaker 4: is wide open. Get aboard. New York City is alive
- 22:35Speaker 4: right now. Not the worst message. Again, this is a
- 22:39Speaker 4: messenger problem. Peter Schrager is a Nets fan. Don't be
- 22:43Speaker 4: welcoming anybody on the Knicks bandwagon. When you're a Nets fan,
- 22:46Speaker 4: keep keep your behind over in Brooklyn.
- 22:49Speaker 1: Peter Schrager, it's a bleeping message.
- 22:53Speaker 3: It's a terrible message.
- 22:55Speaker 1: I just bleep myself saying terrible because now it's contagious.
- 22:58Speaker 3: I'm terrified.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Yeah, so Taylor herse Off, let me just speak on
- 23:04Speaker 1: behalf of Nick fans and non Nick fans. Schrager, get
- 23:07Speaker 1: the hell out of here. The bandwagon is not open. See,
- 23:10Speaker 1: it is not open for Net fans. It's not open
- 23:12Speaker 1: for Heat fans. It is only open for New York
- 23:15Speaker 1: Nick fans. Okay, you guys hated us, you laughed at
- 23:19Speaker 1: us for two decades.
- 23:20Speaker 3: Who's laughing now?
- 23:22Speaker 1: We are?
- 23:22Speaker 3: We don't need you, we don't want you. Get out
- 23:25Speaker 3: of here, Shrager.
- 23:26Speaker 4: I had to watch Chris Duhon play basketball and run
- 23:30Speaker 4: the Knicks at the point guard position. I had to
- 23:33Speaker 4: watch Frank nil Akina. I started convincing myself that Frank
- 23:36Speaker 4: nil Akina was gonna be this great player, lying through
- 23:39Speaker 4: my teeth.
- 23:40Speaker 1: I deserve these moments, yep. And fairness to Schreger, he
- 23:42Speaker 1: had to watch the Nets.
- 23:46Speaker 3: But get out of here. Not your day, it is
- 23:49Speaker 3: our day.
- 23:50Speaker 4: It's Stu day. It's Tuesday.
- 23:53Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I got it wrong today. Yeah, thank you.
- 23:55Speaker 1: Tuesday not Studay, right or whatever?
- 23:58Speaker 3: Tuesday not Tuesday. I'm tired.
- 24:00Speaker 1: It made me tired.
- 24:00Speaker 3: We'll get to Taylor just a second.
- 24:02Speaker 1: Yes, mikey out.
- 24:04Speaker 8: If not Peter Schrager, you know, being the gatekeeper, who
- 24:07Speaker 8: should be who's.
- 24:08Speaker 4: Earned that right right now? Me? I would say Spike Lee.
- 24:15Speaker 4: But even Spike Lee went through a phase as a
- 24:18Speaker 4: Knicks fan. Wait out of here, spike Lee. Spike Lee
- 24:21Speaker 4: is Brooklyn, and when the Nets moved to Brooklyn, Spike
- 24:24Speaker 4: Lee did go through a little phase where he was
- 24:26Speaker 4: sitting courtside at Nets games because those were some of
- 24:29Speaker 4: the darkest days as Knicks fans. Right now, there's nobody
- 24:34Speaker 4: hotter in the streets of New York and being the
- 24:36Speaker 4: Knicks fan captain than Timothy shallow May.
- 24:38Speaker 3: I think you're right.
- 24:39Speaker 1: And by the way, I have no problem telling Spike
- 24:41Speaker 1: Lee to get the hell out of here, because you're right.
- 24:43Speaker 1: He was attending Brooklyn net games when it was Durant
- 24:45Speaker 1: and Kyrie Irvey.
- 24:46Speaker 3: I mean it was Hey, he's worse than still are
- 24:48Speaker 3: that guy?
- 24:49Speaker 1: He's terrible.
- 24:49Speaker 4: Did you see Timothy shallow Man and Kylie Jenner at
- 24:52Speaker 4: the game just ripping shots and then chasing it with coke?
- 24:55Speaker 3: That's how you do it.
- 24:56Speaker 1: I mean, if you're a Knicks fan.
- 25:00Speaker 8: There's one video of him getting handed a shot and
- 25:03Speaker 8: he doesn't know what to do with it because he's like,
- 25:04Speaker 8: I just did this, I need to coke.
- 25:05Speaker 4: Yeah. There was also one moment Timothy schallo May right
- 25:10Speaker 4: now is living every Knicks fan dream, being able to
- 25:12Speaker 4: travel with his team and sit court side. Apparently Cleveland
- 25:16Speaker 4: sold a ticket to Fat Joe and then told him, Hey,
- 25:18Speaker 4: you can't sit court side because you're a Knicks fan,
- 25:20Speaker 4: which is which is kind of crazy. But Timothy Schallomey
- 25:23Speaker 4: in the front row stude Tyler Koley hits a three
- 25:25Speaker 4: and the camera just cuts to Timothy shallow May and
- 25:28Speaker 4: he's throwing up the three hand signs and he's just
- 25:30Speaker 4: going white boy.
- 25:34Speaker 3: Shallo May is having a moment, man, he really is.
- 25:37Speaker 4: He's so cool.
- 25:38Speaker 1: I am good with him being the gatekeeper for all
- 25:40Speaker 1: Knick fans right now. And kick it, Spike Lee the
- 25:42Speaker 1: hell out. This guy doesn't attend the met Gala, he
- 25:47Speaker 1: doesn't go to nets games. He's a Nick fan. He
- 25:50Speaker 1: does shots, he chases it with a coke. I mean,
- 25:53Speaker 1: this guy, Shallo May.
- 25:54Speaker 4: And the most impressive thing is you have somebody like
- 25:58Speaker 4: Ben Stiller, who Benzieller's wife tells him, Hey, you're going
- 26:00Speaker 4: to Mechal. You got to show up at the Mechal.
- 26:03Speaker 4: Ben still almost didn't have a choice in that Sinuation's
- 26:05Speaker 4: so certain. I mean, Timothy Shallomey is dating a Kardashian,
- 26:09Speaker 4: is dating a Jenner, and he's got her flying all
- 26:12Speaker 4: over the country to follow this Knixt team to where
- 26:15Speaker 4: they win. They win to clinch their their spot in
- 26:18Speaker 4: the NBA Finals. And Kyler Jenner's posting on her story
- 26:21Speaker 4: that she's in New York. She's like, guess I'm going
- 26:23Speaker 4: to New York right now? Yeah, you are welcome aboard, Hey.
- 26:26Speaker 1: Jenner, Mikey, I have done Go ahead, Mikey, got something here.
- 26:31Speaker 8: I have traveled around this country. I've been to all
- 26:33Speaker 8: fifty states. It's one of my claims to fame. Weird
- 26:36Speaker 8: and I have a hard time wrapping my head around.
- 26:39Speaker 8: Where does a Kardashian stay when they go to.
- 26:41Speaker 3: Cleveland in a ritz?
- 26:46Speaker 1: What do you mean, Mikey, you don't think they have
- 26:48Speaker 1: a four seasons there?
- 26:50Speaker 3: I mean it's a good ques.
- 26:51Speaker 4: I don't know if they have a.
- 26:52Speaker 1: Four Actually put it on the poll. Does Cleveland have
- 26:54Speaker 1: a four seasons? I honestly don't know. Do they someone
- 26:57Speaker 1: look it up? Do they have a four seasons? Do
- 26:59Speaker 1: they have nice hotel?
- 27:00Speaker 4: So this is what happens. Kylie Jenner is either living
- 27:04Speaker 4: in an apartment in New York City or a penthouse
- 27:07Speaker 4: in New York City, or in her house in LA
- 27:10Speaker 4: She flies in directly for that game. She's in Cleveland
- 27:13Speaker 4: for the minimum amount of time, because nobody wants to
- 27:16Speaker 4: stay in Cleveland longer than they have to be in Cleveland.
- 27:19Speaker 4: She's not I don't care if she's it's a ritz, Carlton,
- 27:21Speaker 4: She's not staying in a ritz Carlton in Cleveland.
- 27:24Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're saying she has a cup of coffee
- 27:26Speaker 1: when she goes to Cleveland.
- 27:27Speaker 4: Yeah, her private jet is nicer than anything that Cleveland
- 27:30Speaker 4: has to offer.
- 27:31Speaker 1: In the private jet on the runway jet. I am
- 27:36Speaker 1: now currently in cage. You are wondering why I'm distracted.
- 27:40Speaker 1: I'm looking up if they have a four seasons in Cleveland.
- 27:43Speaker 1: I mean, the internet's not working well around there.
- 27:48Speaker 4: Never is for you.
- 27:49Speaker 1: I always blame the World Wide Web, but I have
- 27:51Speaker 1: internet problem. So they do have the Ritz Carlton Cleveland,
- 27:55Speaker 1: they do, huh? And you have her not staying there
- 27:57Speaker 1: because it's Cleveland.
- 27:58Speaker 3: No, Yeah, I'm with you.
- 27:59Speaker 4: The great.
- 28:04Speaker 1: Discounted now it sure is. Who the hell's going there?
- 28:09Speaker 1: I mean for anything for the rest of the summer,
- 28:12Speaker 1: for the rest of the time. I mean, Jesus Christ, Mikey,
- 28:16Speaker 1: have you noticed I have done these rants before, Okay,
- 28:19Speaker 1: and I'm not certain that Taylor did one today and
- 28:22Speaker 1: it was exceptional. Even though I asked him not to
- 28:24Speaker 1: do what he still did it because he's excited. The
- 28:26Speaker 1: Knicks have made it to the NBA Finals, first time
- 28:28Speaker 1: since nineteen ninety nine and first time in his lifetime
- 28:31Speaker 1: that he'll see his team play at the Mecca in
- 28:34Speaker 1: the NBA Finals. But have you noticed a problem with
- 28:38Speaker 1: his voice? Because I have done these rants before. I've
- 28:40Speaker 1: done them with Dan. I did my own on Chris
- 28:42Speaker 1: Paul not you know, maybe you know two three years ago,
- 28:46Speaker 1: and I know how my voice felt and sounded after I.
- 28:49Speaker 3: Was done with the rand. You are noticing this with Taylor, right?
- 28:52Speaker 1: He is struggling here because I noticed it when he
- 28:54Speaker 1: asked his first question of Jim Jackson, who was phenomenal
- 28:58Speaker 1: on the show. Did you notice it, Mike? I went
- 28:59Speaker 1: a light back in a second.
- 29:01Speaker 8: Oh, I heard it, And then when I went to
- 29:04Speaker 8: go edit it, I was like, oh, my goodness, Taylor
- 29:06Speaker 8: is hurting after that's.
- 29:10Speaker 3: How do you feel?
- 29:10Speaker 5: Man?
- 29:11Speaker 3: You are you okay right now?
- 29:12Speaker 5: Well?
- 29:13Speaker 4: Yeah, two separate questions. I feel phenomenal, Right, how's your
- 29:16Speaker 4: throat feel?
- 29:17Speaker 3: Yes?
- 29:17Speaker 4: My throat on the other hand, right, I've been sipping
- 29:20Speaker 4: cam or this green Cama meal tear or whatever it is. Yeah, uh,
- 29:24Speaker 4: NonStop ever ever since that rant, and and it's really
- 29:27Speaker 4: not helping my throat. I might be taken tomorrow.
- 29:30Speaker 3: I wish you were really that a boy.
- 29:32Speaker 1: I'm so proud of you for doing your job.
- 29:35Speaker 3: Listen, I wish you had.
- 29:38Speaker 1: I wish you would have sipped that tea right before
- 29:40Speaker 1: you asked this question of Jim Jackson.
- 29:42Speaker 3: It sounded awful.
- 29:43Speaker 1: Go ahead, Jim.
- 29:45Speaker 4: You mentioned Karl Anthony Towns being the focal point of
- 29:48Speaker 4: this Knicks offense. He has more assists and less turnovers
- 29:52Speaker 4: this series than Donovan Mitchell. Then James Harden, why why
- 29:56Speaker 4: has that sufficient the Karl Anthony Towns led offense during
- 30:00Speaker 4: this historic run for the Knicks.
- 30:05Speaker 3: Man, you dug deep.
- 30:08Speaker 8: Your voice did more work in that question than James
- 30:10Speaker 8: Harden did all.
- 30:11Speaker 4: Seriously, Also, who am I kidding myself saying I take
- 30:15Speaker 4: a day off right now? You think I'm taking a
- 30:17Speaker 4: day off in the lead up to the Knicks take
- 30:19Speaker 4: in the final. Whenever this final ends, we sleep in.
- 30:23Speaker 1: July, right, No time for sleeping right, You're riding high
- 30:25Speaker 1: right now.
- 30:26Speaker 3: You're not taking tomorrow off.
- 30:27Speaker 4: These shows. These shows do themselves.
- 30:29Speaker 3: I mean, Israel's off today because he's sick of the
- 30:31Speaker 3: next sick day. Mikey was the first word of the
- 30:36Speaker 3: question that Jim Jackson right.
- 30:38Speaker 11: The Oh yeah, Jim, I don't know why. I don't
- 30:43Speaker 11: know why it delights me so much. But I was saying,
- 30:47Speaker 11: if you can please just play the first.
- 30:49Speaker 1: Couple of seconds of Taylor's first question to Jim Jackson.
- 30:54Speaker 4: Jim, you mentioned Karl Anthony Towns being the focal so
- 31:02Speaker 4: like Tony Romo, you sound like me, Jill, Jill big
- 31:10Speaker 4: turd down here.
- 31:12Speaker 3: And Jim was thrown off by it.
- 31:14Speaker 4: He was like what he was looking at me, like,
- 31:16Speaker 4: what is this kid's deal right now?
- 31:17Speaker 3: And I didn't have the heart to tell him. I
- 31:19Speaker 3: did a rant earlier that I would have had.
- 31:21Speaker 1: To explain it. He'd be confused, no one would know
- 31:23Speaker 1: what the hell's going on. We asked tell her not
- 31:26Speaker 1: to get carried away. He got max carried away. I'm
- 31:29Speaker 1: proud of you.

- 32:04Speaker 1: Jim Jackson going to join us. It's weird for me
- 32:06Speaker 1: to call him Jim Jackson my entire life. I've been
- 32:08Speaker 1: calling him Jimmy Jackson, but I'm told I have to
- 32:10Speaker 1: call him Jim Jackson. Now, Mikey, you thought like it's
- 32:12Speaker 1: Jimmy Jackson, right.
- 32:13Speaker 3: It's supposed to be Jimmy.
- 32:15Speaker 9: H I thought it was Jimmy.
- 32:16Speaker 1: Well, I guess Jimmy gets to decide that it's not
- 32:18Speaker 1: supposed to be Jimmy.
- 32:19Speaker 3: It's whatever Jimmy wants it to be.
- 32:21Speaker 1: But Jim Jackson going to join us at around four
- 32:24Speaker 1: to twenty, and I am very much looking forward to that.
- 32:27Speaker 1: One of my favorite players watching growing up, both in
- 32:29Speaker 1: college and in the NBA.
- 32:31Speaker 3: Taylor, do you care?
- 32:32Speaker 1: Are you so happy that the Knicks are in the
- 32:35Speaker 1: NBA Finals that you don't care who it is that
- 32:38Speaker 1: we face in the NBA Finals Because we have a
- 32:40Speaker 1: big game five tonight Oklahoma City and the Spurs.
- 32:44Speaker 3: It's a swing game.
- 32:45Speaker 1: Oklahoma City is a bunch of people who are out,
- 32:47Speaker 1: they are injured.
- 32:48Speaker 3: Wemby is fine, he is healthy, he's playing great, and
- 32:51Speaker 3: that series is locked up at two games apiece.
- 32:53Speaker 1: But from a Nick fans standpoint, do you care who
- 32:56Speaker 1: we play at.
- 32:57Speaker 3: This point or you're just happy to be there?
- 32:59Speaker 4: My preference is I would rather play the Spurs just
- 33:01Speaker 4: because of how inexperienced the Spurs are with their guards.
- 33:04Speaker 4: Like you see when Daron Fox is out for them,
- 33:07Speaker 4: they have a propensity to turn the ball over. But
- 33:10Speaker 4: right now, Stu, I'm just rooting for seven games. Get
- 33:13Speaker 4: these two teams to seven, Let them battle it out.
- 33:17Speaker 4: Let there be some attrition with their roster and banged up,
- 33:20Speaker 4: while the Knicks are resting. I'm rooting for seven at
- 33:24Speaker 4: this point. The distance all right.
- 33:26Speaker 1: I don't want to get carried away, but I don't
- 33:27Speaker 1: care who we play. The Necks are going to win
- 33:29Speaker 1: that series in five games. I have been all over
- 33:31Speaker 1: these NBA playoffs. Sixers were down three to one. I said,
- 33:34Speaker 1: they come back and win that series at seven. They did.
- 33:37Speaker 1: The next series, I said, the E and M bid
- 33:39Speaker 1: stands for everyone knows you'll be hurt by game three.
- 33:41Speaker 1: He was hurt in Game two and then a couple
- 33:44Speaker 1: of weeks ago, I said, Nixon four over the caves.
- 33:46Speaker 1: Taylor said, gentlemen, sweep, I said four. I was right,
- 33:49Speaker 1: Taylor wrong. I am telling you I don't care who
- 33:51Speaker 1: we play. In fact, Wemby.
- 33:53Speaker 3: Bring it on. I want him Nix.
- 33:56Speaker 1: And five.
- 33:57Speaker 4: There was a moment yesterday again you're like caany Atkinson
- 34:00Speaker 4: just just embarrassing himself in every postgame, Yeah, he said.
- 34:05Speaker 4: They asked him basically, do you think going to Game
- 34:08Speaker 4: seven against the Pistons was part of the Cavs downfall?
- 34:12Speaker 4: And he was like, I'm not saying that's why we lost.
- 34:14Speaker 4: But in the second he said, but he started cranking
- 34:18Speaker 4: that excuse machine. Where I'm listening Kenny Atkinson and being like,
- 34:21Speaker 4: Kenny Akinson, I know you just got swept, but please
- 34:23Speaker 4: leave with some pride left.
- 34:25Speaker 1: Yes, the second you say, but Mikey, what is that
- 34:30Speaker 1: butt represent? That's not the reason we lost, but it's
- 34:33Speaker 1: the reason we lost.
- 34:35Speaker 8: But it's absolutely the reason we were lost. And here's
- 34:37Speaker 8: another reason why I shouldn't be fired.
- 34:41Speaker 4: Kenny Atkinson, Like, you cannot walk up to the podium
- 34:44Speaker 4: with a straight face and be like nixt great team,
- 34:47Speaker 4: we lost that series last round once we lost Game
- 34:50Speaker 4: six to the Pistons.
- 34:51Speaker 1: Yeah, but he did it, and he still thinks he's
- 34:52Speaker 1: up two games to one and he's still prepping for
- 34:54Speaker 1: a big Game six. I think I don't know what
- 34:56Speaker 1: he's in.
- 34:56Speaker 4: Game five.
- 34:57Speaker 3: James Harden thinks he played great.
- 34:59Speaker 4: So analytics say Nicks won game four. So right now, Stu,
- 35:02Speaker 4: we're at two to two, Game five. Back at the
- 35:04Speaker 4: Garden tomorrow.
- 35:06Speaker 1: Did Kenny Atkinson fly back to New York?
