• 0:32
  Speaker 1: So we are at it. Start out a little playing
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: la la land basketball and it's not easy for the
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: trolls because when you have no expectations, you can't really
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: bust balls. Some of you were trying to bust balls,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: which I appreciate the effort. The effort was made, but
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: we have playing action and for many it was a
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: whooped damn do so just start sending those emails. You
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: know I liked your show, but why are you talking
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: about basketball? Okay, just relax, relax, Okay, he wants to
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: just talk football year round. Hey, Patrick Mahomes took a
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: back today. Let's break that down. What do you say? No,
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: there's other stuff going on. So the Warriors and the
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: Clippers the focus and I don't know if you're watching,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: probably not probably not well. Stephen Curry, he was playing,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: and he had a throwback game thirty five points, but
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: twenty seven of those thirty five in the second half.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: I did not play in the NBA. I am told
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: that is pretty good an average. Al Al Horford hit
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: not one, not two, not three, four three pointers, the
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Clips daring him to make the three pointers, which he did.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: As Golden State storm back down the stretch in the
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: fourth quarter to get the win. They advance a five
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: point win. They out down by thirteen in the fourth,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: outscored and one by eight eighteen from that point forward,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: and they have advanced to the next rung of the
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Fugasei NBA playing tournament, while the Clippers n Da da
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: da go by. They're out see you later done, eliminated
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: electric chair all that. The Warriors, who also suck, by
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: the way, it's not like they're good. The Warriors will
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: travel to face Phoenix, who also blows. That'll be on Friday,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and that is a night we are not at the watchtower,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: so let me know what happens in that game. The
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: winner will move along to face the reigning champions, led
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: by former Clipper Shaye Jogis, Alexander and Oklahoma City in
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: the first round. Now, immediately after the Clipper Warrior game,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: there was a ton of fawning over Golden State. And
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I'm not just talking your regular Hey, we like these
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: guys because they're stars. We no, this was a bubble
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: bath Hawktua, Manny Petty all of that. So it's a
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: good jomping up.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Point.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Let us discuss the question the Warriors. The Golden State
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: Warriors here rallying from thirteen points down in the fourth
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: quarter to beat the Clippers. Now the media claiming that
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: it's because of Steph Curry and the championship pedigree, the
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: DNA there are you buying this? So I've got appetizers,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: wires crossed, and muppet and we will combine all of
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: these things together and we will make a bee line
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: out the door like the Clippers are doing. Now, before
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I answer the question, I would like to present to
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: you Tylu, the current coach for now. I don't think
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: he's been fired yet of the Clipper, but here is
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: a ty Lou. He added on he was asked about
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: the Golden State Warriors and their experience. Take a list.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: You can feel that you know you could feel that,
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: you know, when we increase the lead. They never, they never,
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: you know, wavered with the confidence. And they executed. And
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: they've been together for a while and they've run good stuff,
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: you know, and so I want to execute at a
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: high level, and you know, you make some mistakes, they're
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: gonna make you pay, like we talked about before the game.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: And he was able to do that, right, So that's
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: a cop out. Uh, look look in the mirror, dude,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: what are you doing? Seriously, what are you doing. The
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: answer to the question did the game turn because of
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: the championship pedigree of Golden State, The answer is a
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: hard no. I'd fire Ty Lou if I was Steve
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Balmer for that answer. The answer is no. We sucked
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: at a time you can't suck. That's the answer. Spare
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: me the bedtime story about championship DNA shoving up you
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: tuck us that mystical pedigree. I want to puke in
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: my mouth. It's fluff. It's absolute fluff. This was in
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: about Steph Curry and Golden State rising up. This was
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: textbook the Clippers handing over the keys, saying take whatever
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: you want, take whatever you want. You're up by thirteen
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: points in the fourth and you end up giving forty
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: three points in twelve minutes. Forty three points in twelve minutes.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: For those of you a little slow in the back round,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, that's not pressure, that's a disappearing at Golden State.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: Shot seventy five percent from the floor and over seventy
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: percent for three point range in the fourth quarter. Those
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: are video game numbers, the kind you get when nobody
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: is guarding you. Do you understand that the Clippers defended
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: like they had allergies, They were allergic to the very
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: concept of playing defense. In the fourth quarter. There was
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: no resistance, no urgency, no stops at all. That is
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: what's known as malpractice. And either Tylo's coaching it or
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: he's allowing it to happen. No, no backbone, no backbone,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Lou Tyleru coach Lou. There might as well have served
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: appetizers some nice art of choke dip at the end
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: of the third quarter start of the fourth quarter. The
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: whole team went into a food coma, and all that
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: matters is what you do in the moment, and they froze.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: That wasn't a comeback, That was a tax deductible charitable situation.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Hy you just their donation with the scoreboard. Yet again,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: another great moment where the Clippers choke so bad it
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: belongs to the Smithsonia. Now this is not one of
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: the all time great chokes because both these teams blow
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: and it was playing. This shouldn't even exist. Neither one
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: of these teams should even be in the playoffs. If
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: you can't finish in the top eight of your conference,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: you don't deserve your go to the pluffs. Just another
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: embarrassment that Adam Silver added to the NBA. This fugasey
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: playing thing. It's so stupid and no one likes it.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I don't anyone that thinks this is a good idea.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: It's dumb. The NBA is sticking to it, and for
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: years and years they were able to play. They had
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: this playing tournament. Was an eighty two game playing tournament.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: Amazing concept called the regular season and the top eight
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: and each conference got to the playoffs. Adams Sir was like, no, no, no, no, no,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: we need to add an extra couple of teams and
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: then they can play for it, and we'll actually penalize
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: the teams to finish seventh and eighth. It's ridiculous, all right. Now,
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: the other storyline, one of the other storylines for this
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: game was Kawhi Leonard, who had one more basket than
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: you had and I had in the fourth quarter. Very
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: quiet night, quiet night for Kawhi. He was missing in
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: action during the fourth quarter. Kawhi was held scoreless in
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: the fourth until the final sixteen seconds of the fourth quarters.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can't make this up. You cannot make
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: this up. So of course that land to the knee
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: pads getting out for Draymond Green. Because there's one guy
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: that certainly has a you know, he doesn't have an
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: ego problem, so it's always great when the media fluffs
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: him up a little bit. So the question, was this
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: great defense by Draymond Green of Golden State in the
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: fourth quarter or is this just bad offense by Kawhi
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Leonard down the stretch? So please, the arrow on this
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: one is pointing directly at the claw, the claw machine.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Kawhi is supposed to be matchup proof. Do you understand
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: what matchup proof means? Do you understand the concept of
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: matchup proof? It doesn't matter who's guarding him. He's so good,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: he's so wonderful that he just goes out there and
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: get gets her done. That's it. He's a human cheat code.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: When he's cooking, you can throw multiple defenders at him.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like throwing paper towels at a flood.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: It doesn't really work. You ever try to go out
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: there's a hurricane. Let me go out there. I got
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: a roll of paper towels and I am going to
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: stop the water. Okay, that sounds good. I'm sure that
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: will work. Just oh the just just licking, licking, licking
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: and stop. Everyone's given Draymond a tongue back. Even Steph
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Curry postgame was laying it on thick for his teammate.
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: Draymond and defense uncle while all night two big steels.
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: That's why I'd love to see him thankful that we
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: had an opportunity just to come out and.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: Just win one game. Now we gotta do it again,
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: all right? Well, the main sin the credited Draymond with
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: a steel, which was just Matherin should be sent back
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: to Canada for that was horrible basketball. The end bound
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: play late in the fourth quarter, My god, what are
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: you a dingle berry? What are you doing your mama?
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: Luke uh? As far as though back to the point
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Kawhi Leonard in the fourth quarter, he was frazzled, bedraggled,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: and completely zoned. Now why was he frazzled, bedraggled and
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: completely song Eleven minutes into the fourth quarter, he had
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: no points, so he didn't play the entire fourth quarter,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: but no points until there were sixteen seconds left. It
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: was essentially out there doing cardio and what's going on?
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: And it was not Draymond Green building alcatraz. I'm sorry
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: to burst your bubble. This was Kawhi putting himself on
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: airplane mode. We shouldn't do that, Kwai. You shouldn't put
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: yourself on airplane mode. There was no urgency, no aggression,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: no pulse, dribbling into traffic, settling for junk, playing like
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: he had a tea time waiting. I don't even know
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: if he plays golf. Casa Kwai there in San Diego,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: get back there and hang out. So I have a
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: Mallard theory on what happened. As I was making my
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: way into the studio, I came up with the malory.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: The mala theory is that Kawhi got his wires crossed
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: and thought he had a shift at the tree planting
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: service because that was a you know, obviously a no
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: show job. And he showed up like it was a
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: no show job when it mattered soft slow and sloppy, soft,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: slow and sloppy. And the moment knocked and Kawhi said,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm doing. I'm gonna channel Phil Jackson,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: the zen Master, and I'm gonna turn out the lights
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: and meditate. So you turn out the lights. The party's over. Yeah,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: it was over. Now it's over for this season? Is
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: it over? Over? To the last word? We go and
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: the HeLa monster in the room. Kawhi was asked he's
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: heading into his lame duck season with the Clips one
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: year left on his contract. He was asked whether or
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: not he would like to renegotiate the contract and stick around.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: And did he a answer that question by saying, yes, I
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: love it here. They have protected me. They've allowed me
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: to be a slug and not perform. They've allowed me
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: to be lazy and paid me a lot of money
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: to not work most of my contract. I love it here.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: Did he say that? B Did he say I want
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: to leave or see? Did he deflect and not answer? Well?
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: The answer was he deflected and he didn't answer. He
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: claimed he was so broken up by the loss that
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: he needed time to process it. He refused to answer,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: which is funny because he didn't play like he was
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: going to be broken up by the loss. Otherwise they
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: would have won the game. So he refused to answer.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Kawhi Leonard whether he wants a new deal with the Clippers,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: and it's likely irrelevant because there's an investigation. The question,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: what are the odds that this was Kawhi Leonard's last
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: game wearing that iconic Clippers uniform. So the Mallard sports
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: book odds, the Malord sports Book odds are at minus
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: four hundred that he becomes a full blown muppet, which
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: muppet Gonzo finished. It means there's an eighty percent chance
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: that this partnership comes to an end. And whether that's
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: because the NBA steps in to mandate it or the
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Clippers quietly repackage him like a discontinued product line, that's it.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: And I was talking to somebody the other day about this,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: and they explained the situation, like the punishment there is
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: precedent if the Clippers and you know, there's a lot
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: of evidence. Who knows what actually happened there's some podcast
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: guy trying to get famous on this. Good luck. But
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: generally speaking, if this was a salarycap violation, the president
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: is to take away draft picks. The problem is the
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Clippers don't have any draft picks. They treated them all away,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: So it creates a problem because then you just end
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: up finding the Clippers, and Steve Balmer is richer than
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: rich so who cares about that? So you don't end
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: up punishing them. The next couple of draft picks the
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: Clippers have that are gonna be any value are years
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: and years down the line, so the breakup either way
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: is overdue. The spark died several years ago, and everyone's
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: just tiptoeing around here like it. It was taboo to
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: admit the obvious the Kawhi era, while you would do
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: it again because everyone wanted this guy. You allowed him
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: to play GM and he f you over twice. Not
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: only did he show up and not want to play,
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: he also wanted to play with Paul George, which tells
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: you he knows nothing about basketball in terms of player
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: roster building and all that. And so it was a
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: science experiment that never produced the proper result. There was
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: a final four appearance, but Kawhi got hurt that year.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: It was a lab project with no conclusions, no breakthroughs,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: just endless, inconclusive, stamped across the report. That's it. And
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: then the Clippers they just didn't just get unlucky that
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: this the way it turned out. In many ways, they
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: got catfish because the Kawhi Leonard that was in Toronto
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: was not the guy that showed up into La. They
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: bought the myth, the mystique, the promise, and he'd tease you,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: he'd show you some signs of being great and play
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: very well for a couple of games, and even this year.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: He played most of this year, Yet in these playoff
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: opportunities he did not deliver when it matter. This is
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: even a playoff game. This is not a playoff game
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: or a regular season game. This is something else. It's
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: in bizarro world. And so instead the Clippers, instead of
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: getting the Raptors version or the Spurs version, they got
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: a ghost who appeared only in these short, unpredictable bursts.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: So the era it would appear is over and Clippers
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: don't seem like they want to go full suck, which
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: is good. I saw the graphic on the broadcast there
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: with Kevin Harlan. The Clippers have the third top record
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: in the NBA since twenty fourteen. Only the Celtics and
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: the Warriors have won more regular season games, and the
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Clippers have in that time. So it's gonna try to win.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: They'll just change the furniture around. The goal is the same.

  Speaker 1: ball again. And if we were with this last hour,
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: we were covered up in some locations it was all
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: about the Warriors Clippers game, which is incorrectly being reported
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: that Golden State had this amazing performance when it was
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: a total choke job by the Clippers. That's the story, Mike,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: What are you doing? Is it gotten that soft? The
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: ball washing of the team that wins rather than going
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: full throttle on the team that blows the game? My god,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: what are we doing? Well? Our lead this hour is
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: from the early game on the card in this fugasey
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: play in nonsense in the NBA would go to Philadelphia,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: the birthplace of our freedom, where Tyrese Maxi put up
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: thirty one points.
• 17:45
  Speaker 5: VJ.
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: Edgecomb added nineteen points, eleven rebounds, and the seventy six
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Ers by the hair on their chinny chin Chin got
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: past the Orlando Magic. So they get the number seven
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: seed in the Eastern Conference, and so that means we
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: get the Class sixers matchup with the Celtics. The first
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: round will begin on Sunday in Boston. Desmond Bain the
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: star for Orlando, but he could not get her done
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: in the Magic. They're not done yet. They will play Charlotte.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: They'll host to Charlotte on Friday night. The winner of
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: that game we'll get the number eight seed in the
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: Eastern Conference. They will play Detroit. Now, the game was
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: close and all that, and fine. The talking point on
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: this one is the subplot. And if you know, you know,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: you might not know. So there's a story that's been
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: bouncing all over the echo chamber, and it's up for
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: debate how accurate it is. Joelle enbi did not play
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: for the Sixers. He was in street clothes. He was
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: just like Anthony Davis. So Joelle Ebid, the report is
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: he refused to play for the Sixers in this game.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Now skip baitless we know it? Or two about skip.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: He's claiming that Embiid was medically cleared. He had had
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: emergency at emergency appendectomy last week. He had been medically
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: cleared to play in the game, however, and Eid said,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not playing. I know that you're cleared me, but
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: I'm just not gonna play. That's it. I'm out. And
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: so this has ruffled some feathers. The fact that somebody
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: leaked it out would indicate that someone's not real happy
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: with Joel Embiid. So that's a good jumping off point.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Let us discuss the question. A former MVP Joel Embiid
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: reportedly refuse to play for the Sixers despite being healthy
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: enough to do so. So what do you read into
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: this my observations. I have field trip, Sandy Beach and
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: art installation, and we will combine all of these things
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: together and we're going to eat the clock and prolong
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: the agony, is what we're going to do. We always
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: say when we begin our we said, well, it's our two,
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: but it's really our number number. So Joel Embiid is
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: not managing an injury. He's managing an off ramp, is
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: what he's doing here. This is the loudest I'm done
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: with Philly bat signal ever sent to the heavens without
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: holding a news conference. Now, let's call it what it is,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: a soft launch on a mutiny on the Sixers bounty.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: If this is accurate and Embiid, we'll find out when
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: Embiid's traded somewhere after this ends here for the Sixers
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: and Beiid took a field trip down to Independence Hall
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: there in Philadelphia and he filed his own declaration of
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: independence from trust. The process to the process is civil war.
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: That's the process. And here's the twist of the knife.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: If you will. It is true the Sixers won the game,
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: and that's great and all that for them. I guess
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: it hits harder though, that Joe ellen Beiide is doing
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: this now. It's worse for the Sixers then the Ben
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: Simmons saga. As I rhapsodized about this, and the reason
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: it's worse is because Ben Simmons had a glitch. He
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: couldn't get it done. There was something wrong there. This
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: is the franchise cornerstone, for better or worse. This is
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: the MVP face of the franchise, pulling the ripcord. It
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: would appear so when the guy you built the whole
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: thing of a jig around the whole empire, and that
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: guy starts no showing while allegedly healthy, a healthy scratch,
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: if you will, That is not maintenance. That is self sabotage.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: And it certainly feels like a point of no return. Again,
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: we'll find out how accurate this is. Bouncing all over
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: the place. It's supposed he started with Skip Bayles. There's
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: other people saying it's true. Others are saying it's not true.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: The marriage, though, would be cooked if that's it. The
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: dishes are broken and both sides are already calling those
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: divorce lawyers. It's also a referendum on a Sixers culture
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: that has been built on excuses doing the bare minimum.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: It's really what they deserve in Philadelphia. They do this
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: whole fraud of an era of Sixers basketball which has
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: gone on from multiple executives and all the tanking that
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: took place, and now here you get to the very
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: end of it and Joel and beads like, I ain't playing.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: I ain't playing unless I am I. It certainly seems
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: like this is the revenge when he wanted to play
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: in the regular season and he had a bit of
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: a kerfluffle, said I want to play, and they said
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: you can't play. Well, I want to play. Well, we're
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: not going to play it. And then he went public
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: with it, and now here's his payback, medically cleared, and
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: he's like, I'm not playing. I anticipate. He did not
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: believe they were going to win the game without him.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: They won the game without him, and so now we'll
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: see whether he shows up for the real playoff festivities.
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: Meanwhile, to uptown Charlotte Mallor Show follow up, Mallor Show
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: follow Up, Hornet's guard LaMelo Ball. The punishment is in.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: The punishment is in this. On the feedback I got,
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I pointed out the overreaction to LaMelo Ball and the
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: oh my god.
• 23:21
  Speaker 7: I must suspend him. Please suspend Lamello the dirtiest thing
• 23:27
  Speaker 7: I've ever seen as you clutch your pearls. So the punishment.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: They must have suspended LaMelo for the rest of the playoffs, right,
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: or at least several games for what he did to
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: Bam out of Bio, you would think, right, No, LaMelo
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: Ball has been fined thirty five thousand dollars for tripping
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: Bam out of Bio and twenty five thousand dollars is
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: saying a knotty word and he has to wash his
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: mouth out with soap and water postgame. That last part
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: might have been added on for effect. The foul was
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: upgraded to a flagrant foul post mortem. So despite the hullabaloo,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: LaMelo Ball will be available for Friday nights playing matchup
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: to make the playoffs against the Orlando Magic, who lost
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: to the Sixers. So the question what message is the
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: NBA sending by fining, not not suspending Hornet's Guard LaMelo
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Ball for his trip heard round the basketball world. So
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: on this one, it backs up our hot take. And
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: you always love when in the industrial complex of the
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: hot take. You always love when your hot take is stamped, sealed,
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: and validated. In this case, the NBA stamped it. They
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: sealed the envelope, and they validated it. And it was
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: a notary came in there and notarized this was a misdemeanor.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: It was always a misdemeanor. It was not a felony.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: And the punishment is proportional. It's proportional punishment in a
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: league that usually overreacts out of an abundance of caution
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: to try to keep the appearances up. They didn't do
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: that here, So good job by them. A rare win
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: for the NBA who just told outrage machine. They said,
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: you know, listen out major machine. We hear you. We're good.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: We're good, Yes we are. It was the sandy beach plan.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: What does that mean? So the suspension, if you had
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: suspended lamellow ball, you would have hurt the product. A
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: fine is like going down to a sandy beach taking
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: a red party cup plastic red cup, and you fill
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: that up with sand and you leave the beach and
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: you say I've cleared the beach of saying, well, well,
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: no you have. You have a number. LaMelo makes so
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: much money he won't even feel the suspension. It's the
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: classic slash on ball if you will, and enough to
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: say something was done. We take this very seriously. Something
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: was done, not enough to actually matter, just the old
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: wink and a nod and hey, don't do it again.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: I'll see on Friday, though, make sure you show up
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: on time. The subtext star power does get deodorized, not benched.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: And the NBA New TV partners here and they sold
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: this ridiculous product, this play and slop to their broadcast partners,
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: and so they're protecting the inventory for the product. And
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: your anger has been received. It was filed and completely ignored,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: completely ignored. Yeah, all right, Now to golf we go.
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Amid reports that the Saudi Arabia Public Investment Fund might
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: be saying that's all she wrote, boys, get out. I'm
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: out on the They're probably on the verge of removing
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: all their funding for that ridiculous golf thing that they
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: started a couple of years ago. Live Golf CEO Scott O'Neill.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: He sent out an email to the staff on Wednesday,
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: the guy that runs Live Golf and said that the
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: season will go on as quote, as planned, as planned, uninterrupted,
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: and at full throttle close quote. Keep in mind, the
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: email did not directly address reports that PIFF the Public
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: Investment Fund might stop investing in the underground circuit after
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: spending already more than five billion dollars to line up
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: the bank accounts of these golfers who sold out these
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: They've spent over five billion dollars since twenty twenty two. Man,
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: that's wild, all right. So no mention of that or
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: whether the league will continue competitions beyond this season. So
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: the question this, despite reports of the end being near
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: the doomsday clock on the Public Investment Fund, the CEO
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: of Live Golf says twenty twenty six is full throttle.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: So where does this leave things now? Well, if everything
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: is full throttle, why does it sound like the pilot
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: announcing that the left engine just not only stop working,
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: it detached from the plane. Now, having worked in corporate
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: media my entire adult life, let me tell you something.
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: When they say that they send out an email saying
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: everything's fine. That's where you go update your resume. That's
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: where you update your resume and start making calls to people. Hey,
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: you know anything open over there? You got a gig guy?
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: I might need a gig guy. In fact, I do
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: need a gig. Yeah. How many times can a league
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: say we're fine, We're fine before it turns into the
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: sports version of again, you know, my marriage is great?
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: Why do you ask all that stuff? This always it
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: felt like a fad, not a trend, a lavish midlife
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: crisis funded by the ridiculous oil money the Saudi Arabian
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: government has in this public investment fund with no endgame.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: There was no exit strategy, right, There was no exit
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: strategy so live it was like they had so much money,
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: They're like, ah, let's mess around here. Well, just they
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: could have taken it down the NFL, I'm telling you
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: right now, they could have started a pro football league,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: which is the most popular sport in America. If they
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: have so much money, and they could have started that,
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: and you would have seen multiple huge name NFL players
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: void their contracts and run off to take that money
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: from the sugar daddy at the public investment fund. They
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: chose golf because golf's more of an international sport. People
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: around the world don't really care that much about it.
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: American football and Live was not about competition. It was
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: not about competition. It was like a five billion dollar,
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: five billion dollar just this this this art installation. That's it.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: It's like put some art out here, you know. Fine,
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: it's a little piece of art in the middle of nowhere.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: Five billion dollars and proving that everyone can be bought
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: and sold. All these golfers were bought. That's it. You know,
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: everyone's got a price. I remember, I've told the story
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: a million times. There's a book. It was a terrible movie,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: but they made a book called The Magic Christian. Not
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: a religious book, just a bored billionaire that wanted to
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: see what he could do get people to do who
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: didn't want to do certain things. But everyone has a price,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: and these professional golfers sold out to get all that money.
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: And good for them. Congratulations. I'm sure they're great grandchildren
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: will appreciate the fact that they never have to work, and
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: they'll be spoiled ratty punk trust fund babies. I'm sure
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: they're very happy about that. Great. And so it's like
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: they said, wait, well we'll see everyone's got a price,
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: and let's see what happens when you give golfers unlimited
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: money and no consequences and da da here we are.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: So if the money slows, I'm telling you right now,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: there won't even be a farewell tour. It's just turned
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: out the ladds, the parties over in the middle of around.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: That's it. Pay your way back, there's no money for
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: the plane fare. And you watch the media pivot. Certain
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: factions of the media. The same folks who hyped it
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: up will suddenly develop amnesia, just like the people ignored
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: Diana Russini's story until they couldn't ignore it anymore when
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: she was canoodling in the hot tub and all that.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: So what's the endgame with Mike Rabel? What's the endgame?
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: So a quiet return to the PGA Tour for these
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: guys and a lot of well, this was always my
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: plan and I just went over there for a little bit.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: I always wanted to go back to the PGA Tour.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: And they are popping bubbly on the PGA Tour. They're like, okay, challenge,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: we had a threat, we survived, and they're this close,
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: this close, and uh yeah, not gonna apparely happen. During
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: the twenty twenty six season. But before you know it,
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: it'll be twenty twenty seven, and then this thing will
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: be gone, and that'll be that, and there'll be some documentaries.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: There'll be a Netflix docu series on it about how
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: amazing it was and all the money they burned. That'll
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: be There be a lot of that kind of thing,
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of that kind of thing.

• 32:36
  Speaker 1: big event gets grilled all right.
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: Cool reports indicate that Deshaun Watson should be considered the
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: favorite to win the Browns quarterback job. However, RG three
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: is reporting that players in the Browns locker room don't
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: believe they can win with Watson. Ben, who do you
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: think monkn will go with to start the season.
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: Well, this just into Fox Sports Radio. It doesn't matter
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: who plays quarterback for the Browns. They all blow and
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: those that don't blow suck, so they're not gonna win.
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. It's irrelevant. We'll talk about it. I'm
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: sure I'll do monologues on it. Todd munkin what he
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: ought to do is borrow the penny from Benny versus
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: the penny and flip it in the air and see
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: what happens. It doesn't matter. They'd like to play Deshaan Watson,
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: then maybe trade him. That would be the best plan,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: but the good luck Next Giants.
• 33:15
  Speaker 3: GM Joe Shane was recently asked about some of the
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: top prospects the team could consider with the number five pick.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: Shane called former Notre Dame running back Jeremiah Love an
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: offensive weapon, not just.
• 33:25
  Speaker 6: A running back.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, yeah, Ben.
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: Do you think Love can have like a Christian McCaffrey
• 33:29
  Speaker 6: type impact?
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: Can he? Yes? But I'm in the show me state
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: of mind. I am numb to draft type. I am
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: numb to draft type. I want to see it to
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: believe it. Next.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: Panthers have used the first round pick on a wide
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: receiver the last two seasons in a row, and this
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: week GM Dan Morgan was asked if those players would
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: prevent them from doing the same thing again this year.
• 33:47
  Speaker 3: He said, there's no rule against picking a wide receiver
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: three years in a row, and they'll just select the
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: best player available.
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: Benefica.
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: If the best player available to a wide receiver should
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: they pull the trigger.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Yes, that was a non answer. By the way, Coop,
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: when you say best player available, that's a non answer.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: He gave a non answer. How do we do so?
• 34:04
  Speaker 7: When I won?
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: When I win, I win a.

• 34:43
  Speaker 1: let's get the party started. The reading of the questions
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: over to the Coop hell Loop, or as Dick and
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: Dayton calls you. What does he call you, Coop don
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: loop or something like that. Yeah, uh, Dick and Dayton,
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah he doesn't call you Coop a loop, he calls
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: you something like that.
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: But yeah, let's start off with a question from Ray.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Hi.
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: Ray, Ray would like to know what's the best and
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: worst investment you've ever made.
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: The best investment I ever made. I bought a little
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: bit of apple stock when it was relatively early. That
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: turned out to be pretty good. I have a relative
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: who fed a lot on apple in one amount, one
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: a good amount. The worst thing I've ever done I've
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: talked about on the radio. I had someone early on
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: in bitcoin at a Mexican restaurant while eating chips in salsa.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: Spent about thirty minutes trying to get me to buy
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: bitcoin when it was very cheap, and I spent most
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: of the time mocking this person, ridiculing this person about
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: how stupid the investment was, and yeah, how much is
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: bitcoin worth now? I don't want too much. That's the worst.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: That's yeah, what about you, Lelena?
• 35:56
  Speaker 8: Yeah, electric cars and ethereum have taken all my money
• 36:00
  Speaker 8: I still haven't got any of it back yet, so.
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: You're still waiting on me.
• 36:04
  Speaker 7: Regret that.
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: And also I forgot blind Scott when he was known
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: as Bline Scott recommended a weed company, the only one
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: that went out of this the only so license to
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: print money when you're in weed. He picked a one
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: company that couldn't sell weed. You know how hard it
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: is not to sell weed. He picked the one company
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: that couldn't sell weed.
• 36:24
  Speaker 3: Cool, I would say, My best investment would be Apple
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: and and my house. And then the worst investment was
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: this pharmaceutical company that shot up and it was great
• 36:41
  Speaker 3: and I should have sold.
• 36:42
  Speaker 6: I would have made a ton of money and I didn't.
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: Sell, and it's worth nothing now.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: Oh no, not even a penny stock. What is? What
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: is next? Year? It's asked Ben. Your questions are answers
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: to the rest. I'll be our hashtag ask man. If
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: you like this bit, we do it every week. If
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: you don't like it, we only do it once a week,
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: So who cares?
• 37:05
  Speaker 6: Shane and des moines Hi. Shane would like to know.
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: Do you wash your car by hand or do you
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: go to a car wash?
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah? So for years I washed my car car by hand.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: The wife decided that we needed to go to a
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: There's a car wash like right down the street, and
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: you get one car wash a day if you pay
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: like a flat rate. So I try to go four
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: times a week. My car only needs to be washed
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: like once every two weeks, but since I'm paying for it,
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: I go like three or four times a week. What
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: about you, Lorraine my hand or do you wash? You
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: go to the car wash?
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: Oh gosh.
• 37:37
  Speaker 8: I used to try to do my hand when I
• 37:39
  Speaker 8: got my new car, but it's just too much work.
• 37:41
  Speaker 8: So I do like a drive through car wash, and
• 37:43
  Speaker 8: then I make sure to do the hand drying and
• 37:46
  Speaker 8: the waxing by myself.
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: Okay, cool.
• 37:50
  Speaker 6: I've never attempted to wash my car by hand.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Never, Why would you? That's something everyone does when they
• 37:57
  Speaker 1: get a car. Yes, everyone who gets a car the
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: first time. But back in my day, you're like, love
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: the car. You're like, okay, this is great.
• 38:06
  Speaker 6: I do love the car, and I pay somebody else
• 38:07
  Speaker 6: to wash it by hand.
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: I don't trust people.
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: Well, you should trust people.
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: It's better than driving doing one of those drive through
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: car washes that'll damage your paint over time, that's what
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: they say.
• 38:18
  Speaker 6: But I don't know. I had pretty good luck anyway.
• 38:21

• 39:03
  Speaker 1: guess we're all on the list, and I wanted to
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: do it. I was like, that would be cool. It'd
• 39:07
