- 0:12Speaker 1: Meaning to Celtics coach Joe Missoula saying he's happy that
- 0:17Speaker 1: Chris stops Porzingi's played.
- 0:19Speaker 2: Covered in blood?
- 0:20Speaker 1: Also, what intrigues you the most about that Porzingis moment
- 0:25Speaker 1: against Orlando as the Celtic player very dramatically walked out
- 0:31Speaker 1: with blood everywhere?
- 0:32Speaker 2: And we'll talk some baseball.
- 0:34Speaker 1: Do you have any empathy for ken Lee Jansen and
- 0:36Speaker 1: the Angels public complaints over their travel.
- 0:40Speaker 2: Schedule, the boo hoo hoo. They're not happy. It's unfair,
- 0:46Speaker 2: it's unfair. We'll talk about all it's so stupid.
- 0:49Speaker 1: We'll talk about all of that and more and try
- 0:52Speaker 1: to rock the boat. Here it is our number two
- 0:56Speaker 1: saying is you're bleeding green, but it turns out you're
- 0:59Speaker 1: actually bleeding red. Well, come in the beginning of another
- 1:05Speaker 1: hour of the Ben Maler Show. We are in the
- 1:08Speaker 1: air everywhere, crawling as we stay in the game.
- 1:15Speaker 2: You gotta stay in the game.
- 1:17Speaker 1: Coast to coast, sport of the border and beyond on
- 1:20Speaker 1: the vast and tremendously powerful microphones of FSR.
- 1:27Speaker 2: Amminating live from.
- 1:31Speaker 1: Scratch as our secret sauce is made from scratch with
- 1:35Speaker 1: a secret family recipe right here at the Fox Sports
- 1:40Speaker 1: Radio Studios, which is approved that secret recipe by Stuck
- 1:45Speaker 1: in Sacramento. He approves that one hundred percent of the time.
- 1:50Speaker 1: And this portion of the Ben Malley Show made possible
- 1:52Speaker 1: by Tire Act for more for over forty years.
- 1:54Speaker 2: For that's a long time. Over forty years, tire.
- 1:57Speaker 1: Act has been helping customers find the right time for how,
- 2:00Speaker 1: what and where they drive, ship fast and free back
- 2:03Speaker 1: by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
- 2:08Speaker 1: mobile tire installation, tire act dot Com The Way Tire
- 2:11Speaker 1: Buying Show be so our lead this hour, Our lead,
- 2:15Speaker 1: this hour is from Boston. We peak around the playoff
- 2:21Speaker 1: card Eastern Conference, Eastern Conference out of the bracket, the
- 2:25Speaker 1: Boston basketball team playing without Jason Tatum. Oh my aching
- 2:30Speaker 1: wrist out by that. Yeah, he came down hard on
- 2:34Speaker 1: the wrist there and said he.
- 2:35Speaker 2: Was perfectly fine. Everything was good.
- 2:37Speaker 1: Yet he did not play in Game two versus Orlando,
- 2:41Speaker 1: and this was one of the first games of the
- 2:44Speaker 1: night there. I don't know if you saw this or not
- 2:45Speaker 1: if you were checking it out, maybe you were objecting
- 2:48Speaker 1: to the game and watching something else you said, enough
- 2:50Speaker 1: is enough, But we watched, so you would not have
- 2:52Speaker 1: to Jalen Brown, who is being paid as a number
- 2:56Speaker 1: one type player, Well, Jaylen Brown went out and played
- 2:58Speaker 1: number He had thirty six points, ten rebounds, five assists.
- 3:04Speaker 2: And the story here was not so much Jalen Brown.
- 3:07Speaker 1: It was Chris tops Porzingis, who dramatically returned to the
- 3:10Speaker 1: game after getting bloody, a big, bloody gash right on
- 3:15Speaker 1: his forehead, right in the middle of his forehead. Had
- 3:18Speaker 1: twenty points, and the Celtics beat the Magic, and so
- 3:24Speaker 1: Boston up two to OHO in the series. And they
- 3:27Speaker 1: win a game without Tatum, who has a.
- 3:30Speaker 2: Bone bruise, a contrusion.
- 3:33Speaker 1: He's got a bone bruise in his right wrist, and
- 3:36Speaker 1: he missed a playoff.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Game for the first time in his career, so he
- 3:40Speaker 2: was out.
- 3:40Speaker 1: But Boston up two oh and they are in good
- 3:43Speaker 1: shape here, led by his many's fifteen in the second half.
- 3:46Speaker 2: They did hold off a mild push by the team
- 3:50Speaker 2: from Mickey Town in Florida.
- 3:52Speaker 1: There the Celtics had twelve three pointers, which is not
- 3:56Speaker 1: that many for them. They were twenty five of thirty
- 3:59Speaker 1: three from the charity right. Game three is Friday in
- 4:03Speaker 1: Central Florida. The bigger story here, though, is the subplot,
- 4:09Speaker 1: and that is the moment that we will remember, not
- 4:12Speaker 1: long term, but we'll remember it for the short term.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Celtics center Christops Porzingis went to the locker room with
- 4:20Speaker 1: a massive gash right there on his forehead, blood in
- 4:25Speaker 1: the air everywhere.
- 4:27Speaker 2: And I came back out.
- 4:29Speaker 1: They slapped a bandage on his forehead and he shot
- 4:32Speaker 1: a pair of foul shots.
- 4:33Speaker 2: He took a full elbow from.
- 4:37Speaker 1: A guy I've never heard of on the Orlando Magic
- 4:40Speaker 1: is it Goga Bitadza. That's a mouthful anyway, for me,
- 4:46Speaker 1: not for him. And that that was in the third quarter. Now,
- 4:49Speaker 1: during the review, there was a lengthy review as they
- 4:51Speaker 1: wanted to watch every possible angle and high death of
- 4:55Speaker 1: the elbow from Bodza Bitadze rather as it hit Porzigis.
- 5:01Speaker 1: So during the review, Chris Stops dramatically emerged from the
- 5:06Speaker 1: locker room.
- 5:07Speaker 2: The crowd went wild. The crowd went wild.
- 5:09Speaker 1: He had blood down the back of his head, he
- 5:14Speaker 1: was completely disheveled and.
- 5:17Speaker 2: At bandage right there in the four.
- 5:19Speaker 1: As we mentioned, he re entered the game, connected one
- 5:22Speaker 1: of two foul shots, and then left the game again,
- 5:25Speaker 1: and that led to the great SoundBite of the night.
- 5:29Speaker 2: Joel Missoula Joe Missoula as.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Only he can do commenting on Chris stops Porzingis and
- 5:35Speaker 1: I think we have the audio on list listen to
- 5:38Speaker 1: Joe as he works himself up into a crescendo.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Let's go to the audio tape.
- 5:42Speaker 3: I like his overall just approach. I think he has
- 5:44Speaker 3: an ability and innate ability to take things very serious
- 5:47Speaker 3: and at the same time, you know, have great perspective
- 5:50Speaker 3: and then you know, you see how he I think
- 5:52Speaker 3: he can control his environment really well, with how he
- 5:54Speaker 3: handles the crowd and how he handles the physicality of it,
- 5:56Speaker 3: and he can maintain his kind of his poise, and
- 5:59Speaker 3: he just has a great way about him. And I
- 6:02Speaker 3: think that that that helps us. And like, yeah, I
- 6:05Speaker 3: do I love watching him. I like watching him lead
- 6:08Speaker 3: on the court. I think it's important and then he
- 6:10Speaker 3: you know, he comes back in and does his job.
- 6:13Speaker 3: So I do like that.
- 6:15Speaker 2: About Yeah, all right, I like that about it. Let's
- 6:17Speaker 2: we play that this this highlight that last part listen.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Listen again. This is the this is the money part
- 6:21Speaker 2: of it. Listen closely.
- 6:23Speaker 3: I like watching them lead on the court.
- 6:24Speaker 2: I think it's important. Yeah, there you go. I like
- 6:27Speaker 2: watching them bleed on the court. I think it's important.
- 6:28Speaker 2: All right, So let us discuss the question.
- 6:32Speaker 1: Is there a deeper meaning to the Celtic coach Joe Mizzoula.
- 6:37Speaker 1: Let him play Joe Joe Mizoula being happy that Chris
- 6:41Speaker 1: stops porzingis played covered in blood. So my observations, I've
- 6:46Speaker 1: got Kleenex, milkman, and Paris baguette, and we will combine
- 6:52Speaker 1: all of these things together, and we are going to
- 6:55Speaker 1: spike the punch bowl, is what we're gonna do. We're
- 6:57Speaker 1: gonna spike the punch bowl, all right, So no, can
- 7:01Speaker 1: I get a numb burn.
- 7:04Speaker 2: To answer the question is there a deeper meaning of this?
- 7:07Speaker 2: I am nodding my head. Yes, I'm nodding my head. Yeah, yeah,
- 7:11Speaker 2: I'm going.
- 7:12Speaker 1: Yes, I'm gone. I'letna get busy if I keep doing this.
- 7:14Speaker 1: Aside from Joe Mizoula continuing to be the quirky quote
- 7:20Speaker 1: machine of the NBA. Now, I am not, as you know,
- 7:23Speaker 1: a psychologist.
- 7:24Speaker 2: I am just a.
- 7:25Speaker 1: Mere peon in the radio world, the overnight gas bag. However,
- 7:30Speaker 1: I can't play a shrink on the radio. And here's
- 7:34Speaker 1: my diagnosi. Joe Mazoo was confessing. That was a confessional
- 7:41Speaker 1: that he is concerned. The coach of the Celtics is
- 7:45Speaker 1: worried that the reigning NBA champions are soft, and there
- 7:51Speaker 1: was meeting in that.
- 7:54Speaker 2: Coach Joe does not want to coach a team of flowers.
- 7:57Speaker 1: He doesn't want the pussy willow flower team out there.
- 7:59Speaker 2: He doesn't.
- 8:01Speaker 1: Now, to rephrase this for those of you a little
- 8:03Speaker 1: slow in the back of the room, Joe Mizoula is
- 8:05Speaker 1: worried about the Kleenex. He wants to avoid a tissue
- 8:10Speaker 1: paper team and instead he wants that thick scar tissue
- 8:15Speaker 1: is what he would like and it's unbecoming.
- 8:18Speaker 2: If you're not like that.
- 8:19Speaker 1: You might remember when when Jason Tatum got hurt in
- 8:22Speaker 1: Game one, Missoula ran out there and chased the trainer away.
- 8:27Speaker 1: Do you remember that he pushed the trainer away for
- 8:29Speaker 1: the Celtics, the medical staff away because he's trying to
- 8:33Speaker 1: toughen up Tatum. Turned out, Tatum missed the game, but
- 8:36Speaker 1: porzingis he's out there. There's blood on the floor, there's
- 8:40Speaker 1: blood everywhere, and Mozilla's his quote is, hey, he was happy.
- 8:47Speaker 2: He liked watching him bleed out on the court right there.
- 8:49Speaker 2: He enjoyed it. He enjoyed it. And so there we are.
- 8:53Speaker 1: And it's pretty wild though, considering that porzingis his reputation,
- 8:57Speaker 1: one of the reasons he kept moving around from the
- 9:00Speaker 1: Knickerbockers to the Mavericks and all these other teams. He's
- 9:02Speaker 1: played for Washington. His reputation is fragile, fradgile. He's your
- 9:08Speaker 1: prototypical modern NBA ballplayer who misses a ton of games.
- 9:13Speaker 2: He's always hurt. He was hurt last year.
- 9:15Speaker 1: When the Celtics went on their run and they would
- 9:17Speaker 1: win the championship. He got hurt in that run, all
- 9:20Speaker 1: right now, Page two. So what intrigues you the most
- 9:25Speaker 1: about this individual? Christops berzingis moment for the Celtics. So
- 9:29Speaker 1: for me, it's the obvious cinematic nature of the event,
- 9:34Speaker 1: all right, the cinematic nature. If this had been during
- 9:37Speaker 1: an NBA Finals game, it would have been on par
- 9:41Speaker 1: on par with Paul Pierce, who needed a wheelchair because
- 9:46Speaker 1: he soiled his pants. He had poopy in the pantsy
- 9:49Speaker 1: and he had to get a wheelchair because he didn't
- 9:52Speaker 1: want people to see the streak down the.
- 9:54Speaker 2: Back of his pants. Now, Chris stops on this one.
- 9:57Speaker 1: Was the milkman now, not Milkman My in Colorado, although
- 10:01Speaker 1: Milkbad Mike in Colorado was.
- 10:02Speaker 2: In Boston recently.
- 10:04Speaker 1: No, no, no, he was a different milkman because Porzingis
- 10:07Speaker 1: was playing to the crowd. He was smiling from ear
- 10:10Speaker 1: to ear. He was milking the malman, just enjoying the
- 10:14Speaker 1: hell out of it. As the crowd chanted his name.
- 10:17Speaker 1: Porzingis looked like he was in some kind of a fight,
- 10:21Speaker 1: like a Rocky Balboa old school boxing movie. Bloodied, battered, bruised,
- 10:26Speaker 1: and completely beaten.
- 10:28Speaker 2: But he came back into the game.
- 10:30Speaker 1: And was he actually growing a unicorn or did somebody
- 10:34Speaker 1: take the unicorn off of his forehead? Now, as for
- 10:37Speaker 1: Jason Tatum, that particular injury is at a big deal,
- 10:43Speaker 1: a little deal, or no deal. So I have it
- 10:45Speaker 1: as a no deal. I don't think it's a big deal,
- 10:48Speaker 1: even though he missed the game. I believe the reason
- 10:50Speaker 1: he missed the game is because the Celtics don't consider
- 10:52Speaker 1: the magic a.
- 10:53Speaker 2: Threat and they were right.
- 10:56Speaker 1: They went out there without without Tatum and without Porzingis
- 11:01Speaker 1: for a stretch, and they still beat Orlando. So out
- 11:04Speaker 1: of an abundance of caution, remember that back in twenty
- 11:07Speaker 1: twenty shut the whole world down. I have an abundance
- 11:09Speaker 1: of caution. But out of an abundance of caution, they
- 11:11Speaker 1: rested Tatum. Had this been a tougher opponent, a worthy opponent,
- 11:18Speaker 1: we believe on this side of the microphones, that he
- 11:20Speaker 1: would have played. He would have played all right.
- 11:22Speaker 2: Final point.
- 11:23Speaker 1: Now, I was gonna talk about the calves and the heat,
- 11:26Speaker 1: and I attempted to find a talking point I did.
- 11:31Speaker 1: I don't want to shortchange the people of Cleveland. I
- 11:33Speaker 1: don't want to do that. I could not find a
- 11:36Speaker 1: talking point. I could not find a talking point. There's
- 11:39Speaker 1: nothing there. I know that Miami was within a couple
- 11:42Speaker 1: of points late in the fourth quarter, but there was
- 11:46Speaker 1: just nothing that really stood out, and so we moved
- 11:48Speaker 1: to the diamond. Baseball barbarism. A major league baseball team
- 11:55Speaker 1: complaining complaining about work conditions. Is it a baseball team
- 12:00Speaker 1: that plays in a minor league ballpark the Tampa Bay Rays. No,
- 12:04Speaker 1: Is it a baseball team that plays in a minor
- 12:06Speaker 1: league ballpark. The Sacramento Athletics, no, the team that wears
- 12:11Speaker 1: the halo, but making it seem like they're playing in
- 12:15Speaker 1: baseball hell. Now, to set this up, Bajor League baseball
- 12:19Speaker 1: teams normally play an afternoon game on a getaway day
- 12:24Speaker 1: before or they go to or leave the West Coast.
- 12:29Speaker 2: That's typically how it's done.
- 12:31Speaker 1: You fly to or from the West Coast, you play
- 12:34Speaker 1: a day because you got to sit on the plane
- 12:36Speaker 1: for a few hours, God forbid. And especially if there's
- 12:40Speaker 1: no often you don't have a day off between games.
- 12:43Speaker 2: You play the early game and then you go out
- 12:45Speaker 2: and you play. You play the following day at night.
- 12:49Speaker 1: The Angels our schedule here on this Thursday to play
- 12:53Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Pirates the Buckos. There's only one person I know that
- 12:58Speaker 2: cares about that game. That's serious, Sean. So the Pirates
- 13:01Speaker 2: and the Angels are gonna play in Anaheim. And then
- 13:04Speaker 2: the Angels will.
- 13:05Speaker 1: Take a chartered bus. They will have an escort. They
- 13:09Speaker 1: will go to the airport. They will go to a
- 13:12Speaker 1: special part of the airport not to be touched by
- 13:14Speaker 1: the unwashed. They will then board a chartered flight. They
- 13:18Speaker 1: will then fly to Minnesota. They will then get off
- 13:21Speaker 1: the plane to a private bus with an escort, and
- 13:26Speaker 1: they will then go to a hotel where they will
- 13:28Speaker 1: check in at a five star hotel and then play
- 13:32Speaker 1: a bunch of road games in Minnesota starting the following night.
- 13:37Speaker 1: And the Angels are spitting mad about this. Among the players,
- 13:41Speaker 1: you have closer Kenley Jansen, which is still very odd
- 13:45Speaker 1: that guy blew some big games with the Dodgers. Kenley
- 13:48Speaker 1: Jansen and outfielder Taylor Ward have called the travel schedule,
- 13:52Speaker 1: among other things, quote not healthy, quot quote end quote unfair.
- 13:58Speaker 2: They're arguing it creates a competitive disadvantage.
- 14:03Speaker 1: Ken Lee Jansen in particular, sounded like someone might die.
- 14:06Speaker 2: Because of this.
- 14:07Speaker 1: Do you have empathy for ken Lee Jansen and the
- 14:10Speaker 1: Angels and their public complaints about their travel schedule?
- 14:15Speaker 2: So I will be the judge, jury and executioner on
- 14:19Speaker 2: this one, and motion denied. Motion denied.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Now the Angels, I don't know if they have any
- 14:28Speaker 1: sponsors left because who I've watched day of those games,
- 14:32Speaker 1: but the Angels should be sponsored by Paris Baguette, because
- 14:36Speaker 1: that is a team filled with cream puffs. That is
- 14:39Speaker 1: a cream puff team complaining about the schedule.
- 14:43Speaker 2: I thought everyone learned this.
- 14:44Speaker 1: I thought one of the lessons of sport, one of
- 14:46Speaker 1: the lessons that we learn in sport is complaining about
- 14:49Speaker 1: the schedule does not change the schedule, and that the
- 14:53Speaker 1: teams that are good, the teams that win, the teams
- 14:55Speaker 1: that celebrate victories on a regular basis, they focus their
- 14:59Speaker 1: energy on adapting and using that as a badge of honor,
- 15:05Speaker 1: a badge of honor, preparing overcoming that. That is an obstacle.
- 15:11Speaker 1: That is machismo, that is masculinity. You've overcome an obstacle.
- 15:15Speaker 1: Not the modern athlete, not the angels. No, no, no,
- 15:18Speaker 1: oh it's hard.
- 15:20Speaker 2: It's so difficult. Ash shut up, so stupid, it is
- 15:26Speaker 2: so dumb.
- 15:27Speaker 1: Rather than say, Okay, we're gonna use this as an
- 15:29Speaker 1: exciting thing to build some mental toughness, and we're gonna
- 15:31Speaker 1: show what kind of tough team you are. You acknowledge it,
- 15:34Speaker 1: and then you rise above it. The angels, Oh no,
- 15:36Speaker 1: it's not healthy, it's unfair.
- 15:39Speaker 2: Oh my god.
- 15:40Speaker 1: We gotta go on a chartered plane. A charted You're
- 15:44Speaker 1: not sitting on Southwest Group B. You're on a chartered plane.
- 15:49Speaker 1: You're not flying Spirit Airlines. Where if you breathe and
- 15:53Speaker 1: spit a loogie, they charge you for it. Then you
- 15:56Speaker 1: get on your luxury chartered bus, you go to your
- 16:00Speaker 1: five star hotel with eight gazillion thread count sheets. You
- 16:05Speaker 1: talk about hardship, you talk about overcoming, overcoming adverse. It's
- 16:14Speaker 1: like it's like skid Row amazing courage in sports. The
- 16:19Speaker 1: Angels courage in sports so embarrassing.
- 16:24Speaker 2: He's so stupid. Oh my god, I saw you gotta
- 16:27Speaker 2: be kidding me.
- 16:28Speaker 1: And the other part of it is they're actually complaining
- 16:31Speaker 1: about ownership because the team decides the time of the game,
- 16:35Speaker 1: the home team decides, there are rules, there are rules,
- 16:38Speaker 1: But really what the Angel's entire team is doing is
- 16:42Speaker 1: complaining about Artie Marino. Look but yet, see they want
- 16:45Speaker 1: to be paid as much moneys they don't get as
- 16:47Speaker 1: far as I know. And so the Angels, they know
- 16:50Speaker 1: if they played the Pirates at one o'clock on a
- 16:54Speaker 1: Thursday afternoon in April, there would have been seven and
- 16:57Speaker 1: a half people there. Seven and one really short person
- 17:00Speaker 1: would have been there. Okay, seven and a half people
- 17:03Speaker 1: would have been a game. They played the game at night,
- 17:05Speaker 1: they got fifteen people, so they double the attendance at night,
- 17:08Speaker 1: so that's.
- 17:09Speaker 2: Why they did that.
- 17:11Speaker 1: It's just wonderful the Ben Malor shows. We are rolling

- 29:30Speaker 1: talents to the tenant Sea Titans. He was fired by
- 29:37Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks very rude. So the Tennessee Titans have
- 29:41Speaker 1: added Tyler Lockett gets a contract.
- 29:44Speaker 2: Worth up to four million dollars, so.
- 29:49Speaker 1: He's buying dinner, he's buying lunch and all that pretty
- 29:53Speaker 1: good for a washed up wide receiver. But he has
- 29:56Speaker 1: revealed that he's heading to the Tennessee Titans.
- 30:00Speaker 2: So it's it's.
- 30:01Speaker 1: Worth four men, but up to actually six mini ten
- 30:05Speaker 1: years in Seattle, and he's second all time behind Steve
- 30:10Speaker 1: Largin in that franchise's history. And so he is now
- 30:14Speaker 1: going to Tennessee.
- 30:15Speaker 2: And you you.
- 30:16Speaker 1: Look around in Tennessee Titans, they are on the clock.
- 30:20Speaker 1: The draft is tonight Tennessee with that number one overall pick.
- 30:26Speaker 1: They don't have a quarterback, they don't have much on
- 30:29Speaker 1: the offensive line, and they don't have much at receiver.
- 30:33Speaker 1: They got rid of DeAndre Hopkins last year. He was
- 30:36Speaker 1: getting on the long and the two side, and they
- 30:40Speaker 1: need an edge rusher. So they need help. They need
- 30:45Speaker 1: a lot of help, a lot of help there. And
- 30:48Speaker 1: we'll see what happens that the Titans with the top
- 30:50Speaker 1: pick in the draft tonight. Let's go back to the

- 32:37Speaker 2: still full hot air.
- 32:39Speaker 1: However, you know, compared to the other stuff that we
- 32:42Speaker 1: had to deal with with Poppy, that was a masterpiece.

- 37:43Speaker 5: So the Rams won't say much about whether they are
- 37:45Speaker 5: looking to draft a quarterback, but we do know that
- 37:47Speaker 5: things are year to year with Matthew Stafford, who isn't
- 37:49Speaker 5: exactly a spring chicken. Now, Ben, do you think the
- 37:52Speaker 5: Rams wait until next offseason to address.
- 37:55Speaker 2: Their long term future at quarterback? Yeah?
- 37:57Speaker 1: So the Rams are in the try to win now
- 37:59Speaker 1: period still, so they need help on the offensive line,
- 38:01Speaker 1: they need help in the secondary.
- 38:02Speaker 2: They'd like to add a tight.
- 38:04Speaker 1: End, so they could draft somebody in the middle rounds,
- 38:07Speaker 1: but it's not a priority. And McVeigh is so cocky
- 38:10Speaker 1: and confident that when Stafford leaves, he thinks he can
- 38:13Speaker 1: turn anyone into a serviceable quarterback in the NFL. So
- 38:17Speaker 1: it is not something I would expect the Rams to
- 38:20Speaker 1: draft high.
- 38:21Speaker 2: We'll see. I mean, I don't think any of these
- 38:23Speaker 2: guys are all that great in the draft. Next, that's
- 38:25Speaker 2: a quarterback.
- 38:26Speaker 5: As we mentioned on the show yesterday, Celtics card Peyton
- 38:29Speaker 5: Pritchard won sixth Man of the Year, but Calves owner
- 38:31Speaker 5: Dan Gilbert insists that it should have been his guy,
- 38:34Speaker 5: Tied Jerome, saying, anybody who watched Calves basketball this season
- 38:37Speaker 5: knows Ti Jerome is the sixth man of the Year.
- 38:39Speaker 2: Ben was Jerome overlooked? So let me get straight. The
- 38:42Speaker 2: owner of the Caves, Dan Gilbert, did he write a letter?
- 38:45Speaker 2: Did he do it in a letter? No?
- 38:47Speaker 1: Listen, Ty, every time I watched the Calves, Ty Jerome
- 38:49Speaker 1: playing great. He's making moneyballs, he's making big shots, he
- 38:53Speaker 1: looks wonderful. The problem is that Peyton pritchard he was
- 38:59Speaker 1: just better and the Celtics were you know, they didn't
- 39:02Speaker 1: have a better record than the Cavs and all that
- 39:03Speaker 1: in the regular season, but Peyton Pritcherd's impact was greater
- 39:06Speaker 1: than Ti Jerome. And Ti Jerome plays in Cleveland, So yeah,
- 39:10Speaker 1: you're overlooked when you're play in Cleveland.
- 39:11Speaker 2: That's kind of how that works. You know, Ti Jerome's
- 39:13Speaker 2: played for four different NBA teams. I didn't. I'd never
- 39:17Speaker 2: even heard of the guy. Yeah, this was the first
- 39:19Speaker 2: I had heard of him.
- 39:20Speaker 5: All right, next, basketball fans do not want to see
- 39:22Speaker 5: another thunder Grizzlies matchup. There were calls for a mercy
- 39:25Speaker 5: rule in the series all over social media, Tuesday evening. Ben,
- 39:28Speaker 5: do you think Memphis has any chance of winning a
- 39:29Speaker 5: game at home or will this be a suite for Okase?
- 39:32Speaker 1: Well, they have a chance because you have a bad
- 39:35Speaker 1: shooting night Shade Yogis, Alexander hasn't played well.
- 39:38Speaker 2: The officials.
- 39:39Speaker 1: I mean, there's a shot that you get at least
- 39:42Speaker 1: one win, but they're just not competitive. They don't have
- 39:47Speaker 1: that fighting spirit in Memphis. So based on the way
- 39:50Speaker 1: that they just kind of go through the motions, I'd
- 39:51Speaker 1: say no, but yeah, they you can steal a game
- 39:53Speaker 1: with some help. How did we do you pass?
- 39:56Speaker 2: This edition?
- 39:56Speaker 4: There is on
- 40:00Speaker 5: You are
