- 0:55Speaker 2: Who's the fall guy? The fall guy for SGKC squad
- 1:01Speaker 2: being unable unable to close the Nuggets out in Game six?
- 1:06Speaker 2: And what was the thing that pushed Nikola Jokicic and
- 1:09Speaker 2: the Nuggets into the winner's circle in that game in Denver,
- 1:13Speaker 2: and are the Nuggets doomed having to play a game
- 1:17Speaker 2: seven in OKC will answer all of those questions and
- 1:23Speaker 2: take a very interesting phone call from a young lad
- 1:27Speaker 2: in Dallas. All that and more right now here, it
- 1:30Speaker 2: is our number one, the silent thunder, at least when
- 1:40Speaker 2: it matters. They were silent welcome in the beginning of
- 1:47Speaker 2: another night of the Ben Malor Show. We are in
- 1:50Speaker 2: the air everywhere in Unison as we shine in the moonlight,
- 1:58Speaker 2: coast to coast, Sport, border and beyond. On the mast
- 2:02Speaker 2: and unrelentingly powerful microphones of fs are am monating live
- 2:09Speaker 2: from the chain, the supply chain of hot takes with
- 2:13Speaker 2: no shortages, no shortages from the Fox Sports Radio studios,
- 2:18Speaker 2: as approved by Slim Tim the Cheese said he signs
- 2:22Speaker 2: off on that this portion of the Ben Malor Show
- 2:24Speaker 2: made possible in part by tire Iraq. For over forty years,
- 2:28Speaker 2: that's a long time. Ti Iraq has been helping customers
- 2:31Speaker 2: find the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
- 2:35Speaker 2: Shift fasten freeback by free road hazard protection with convenient
- 2:40Speaker 2: installation options like mobile tire installation, tire i rac dot
- 2:45Speaker 2: Com the way tire buying should be. So I'm doing
- 2:48Speaker 2: a psyop here. I was talking to the rain in
- 2:50Speaker 2: our production meeting. We were talking about, you know, I
- 2:52Speaker 2: want to I want to kind of mess with Terry
- 2:55Speaker 2: in England and that annoying supermarket Steve guy and these
- 3:00Speaker 2: guys can that can play. So I'm gonna hold off
- 3:03Speaker 2: on sending out the social media show Rundown just to
- 3:07Speaker 2: annoy them. And Loraina is like, that's the way to
- 3:09Speaker 2: do it. She said that exist. See right there, she
- 3:12Speaker 2: encouraged me because of that. I'm gonna make you wait
- 3:15Speaker 2: for that, but we are going to start right now
- 3:18Speaker 2: at the very top from five two hundred and eighty
- 3:21Speaker 2: feet above sea level. How do I know that? It
- 3:24Speaker 2: was on the front of the uniform the mile High
- 3:27Speaker 2: City in Island game The Island Life in the NBA
- 3:33Speaker 2: Playoff Playoffs in just one game on the NBA card
- 3:37Speaker 2: Western Conference Semi Finals, game number six, and the ex
- 3:41Speaker 2: clip Shay jogas Alexander and the Thunder looking to punch
- 3:46Speaker 2: their ticket to take on Minnesota in the Western Conference Finals,
- 3:53Speaker 2: a date in the Final four for Oklahoma City, and
- 3:56Speaker 2: all they had to do was go to Denver and
- 3:57Speaker 2: beat the Nuggets, and the media elites told me that
- 4:00Speaker 2: Nuggets have run out of gas. There's nothing left. They
- 4:02Speaker 2: don't have a big enough rotation. They can't compete with
- 4:05Speaker 2: the youthful legs of Oklahoma City. So surely Nikola jokicch
- 4:09Speaker 2: was cooked as the Nuggets. They were just trying to
- 4:12Speaker 2: stay alive, but they didn't have the depth and they're
- 4:14Speaker 2: gonna run out. You told me that. You told me that,
- 4:17Speaker 2: all right, So I don't know if you saw the
- 4:19Speaker 2: game or night. Maybe not. Maybe I was the only
- 4:20Speaker 2: one watching. I did it for you. It's my good
- 4:22Speaker 2: mits for the day. So Jamal Murray, that's a basketball player.
- 4:27Speaker 2: He was sick, and there's nothing in all of sport
- 4:31Speaker 2: that can match NBA broadcasters talking about players that are sick.
- 4:36Speaker 2: They're literally on their deathbed, these players. Oh my god.
- 4:41Speaker 2: He needed around the clock medical attention. He had the
- 4:43Speaker 2: creeping crudd. Anyway, Jamal Murray was sick. Can you imagine
- 4:47Speaker 2: showing up the work sick? Who does that? Well? Before COVID,
- 4:49Speaker 2: most people did. Anyway, Jamal Murray was ill, and, according
- 4:54Speaker 2: to the broadcasters, could have died. He then went out
- 4:57Speaker 2: and scored twenty five points. And the Nuggets. He guided them,
- 5:00Speaker 2: the guiding light for Denver for some of the game,
- 5:03Speaker 2: not the entire game, but he did enough there and
- 5:05Speaker 2: the Nuggets end up winning rather comfortably. The game was
- 5:08Speaker 2: not in jeopardy in the final part of the fourth
- 5:10Speaker 2: quarter one nineteen to one oh seven. So what does
- 5:13Speaker 2: that mean. It means the series now goes back to
- 5:17Speaker 2: Oklahoma City for a decisive Game seven. Nicola Jokic the Joke,
- 5:24Speaker 2: led the way with twenty nine points for Denver. He
- 5:26Speaker 2: had fourteen rebounds, eight assists, and a partridge in the
- 5:30Speaker 2: pear tree. And Christian Brown, although it looks like its
- 5:33Speaker 2: name should be Braun, I'd rather be called Braun because
- 5:35Speaker 2: that's a tough you know, Braun. Anyway, Christian Brown had
- 5:39Speaker 2: twenty three points for the Denver basketball team and the
- 5:42Speaker 2: thunder who were all giddy. They're like, oh man, we're
- 5:45Speaker 2: in good shape there. And they had some opportunities with
- 5:48Speaker 2: the lead in this game, but Shade Jogas Alexander had
- 5:51Speaker 2: thirty two. It was not enough. However, the good news is,
- 5:55Speaker 2: I know Kyrie is excited about this in OKCS Our buddy,
- 5:58Speaker 2: he's a listener. Story is in the losing locker room.
- 6:02Speaker 2: So let us discuss, all right, the question who's the
- 6:06Speaker 2: fall guy? Who's the fall guy for SGA's OKC squad?
- 6:12Speaker 2: There's a lot of letters, SGA OKC, who's the fall
- 6:17Speaker 2: guy for Oklahoma City? Unable to close out game six?
- 6:21Speaker 2: So my thoughts on this, I've got tow truck, KFC
- 6:26Speaker 2: and eight ball and we will combine all of this
- 6:31Speaker 2: randomness together and we are going to make a happy dance.
- 6:35Speaker 2: Because if you bet on the Denver Nuggets, you had
- 6:38Speaker 2: a little happy dance there. You were very happy with
- 6:40Speaker 2: the outcome of this game. Now, a there's one name
- 6:45Speaker 2: that everyone agrees is at the very top. If you
- 6:48Speaker 2: got to have a fall gotta have a fall guy,
- 6:52Speaker 2: and that would be Jalen Williams. That is a basketball player.
- 6:57Speaker 2: Not a good one, apparently not right now. I'm not
- 6:59Speaker 2: getting a lot of bang for your buck. If you're
- 7:01Speaker 2: in Oklahoma City, he's got to wear this one. In fact,
- 7:04Speaker 2: he was so bad, How bad was he? He was
- 7:06Speaker 2: so bad he needed a bib. Okay, he needed a
- 7:09Speaker 2: bib because he had a barf bag because he was
- 7:11Speaker 2: riding the vomit comet. And when you ride the vomit comic.
- 7:14Speaker 2: You need a barf bag, you need a bib because
- 7:16Speaker 2: stuff goes everywhere. And now I'm not gonna sit here
- 7:19Speaker 2: and tell you he's the guy that is the center
- 7:22Speaker 2: of Oklahoma City's not the centerpiece. He's a secondary scorer
- 7:27Speaker 2: for the Thunder. We've seen them in the playoffs here
- 7:30Speaker 2: quite a bit. And he sucked at a time you
- 7:32Speaker 2: cannot suck, which is from pillar to post, and took
- 7:36Speaker 2: fifteen shots in the game, missed twelve of the fifteen.
- 7:40Speaker 2: I didn't play in the NBA. I just do the
- 7:42Speaker 2: overnight show. I don't think that's good. You're a hater man, Okay, Yeah,
- 7:47Speaker 2: six points, that's it. Six points. And this game was
- 7:52Speaker 2: right for the picking. And it's not quite to the
- 7:55Speaker 2: same degree as the Knicks, who messed things up up
- 8:00Speaker 2: and they could have closed out Boston. They gave Boston
- 8:03Speaker 2: some life losing that last game in the Eastern Conference
- 8:06Speaker 2: side of the bracket. But you're messing around here. You're
- 8:10Speaker 2: messing around if you're OKAC. That game was in reach.
- 8:13Speaker 2: The game was tied at eighty late third quarter, late
- 8:16Speaker 2: third quarter, game tied at eighty, and right around that
- 8:20Speaker 2: time that is where the check engine light came on
- 8:22Speaker 2: the dashboard for the Nuggets and it was what we're
- 8:26Speaker 2: calling it, the perfect ten, the perfect ten because the
- 8:30Speaker 2: Thunder and it was not just not just Jaylen Williams,
- 8:33Speaker 2: the entire Thunder team needed a tow truck. They ran
- 8:38Speaker 2: out of gas. They ran out again. Now killing the
- 8:41Speaker 2: narrative that the youthful legs of Oklahoma City they have
- 8:47Speaker 2: the edge. How many of these stories have we heard
- 8:50Speaker 2: over the last couple of days that okayse he's just younger, hipper,
- 8:53Speaker 2: they're cooler and they've got more bouncy bounce in their legs.
- 8:57Speaker 2: And the Nuggets of the old team they don't have
- 8:58Speaker 2: enough depth there. They don't they don't play enough players.
- 9:01Speaker 2: All this crap. But on this night, Oklahoma City was
- 9:05Speaker 2: huffing and puffing down the stretch. It wasn't because of
- 9:09Speaker 2: the altitude. Let's start stop with that. And so every
- 9:13Speaker 2: time a Denver Sports teams in a big game, it's
- 9:16Speaker 2: the alta. They never win anything, stop, right, But the
- 9:20Speaker 2: Thunder did go down under. They did at the end
- 9:23Speaker 2: of this game outscored in a ten minute block late
- 9:26Speaker 2: third quarter, late third quarter to just a few minutes
- 9:30Speaker 2: on the clock. So from late third quarter, about a
- 9:32Speaker 2: little less than two minutes third quarter to about three
- 9:35Speaker 2: minutes or so to go. In the basketball game, the
- 9:41Speaker 2: Denver basketball team outscored the Oklahoma City basketball team. Saw
- 9:45Speaker 2: you know. It was twenty nine to thirteen, and that
- 9:48Speaker 2: was in a ten oh three stretch. They ended up
- 9:51Speaker 2: building up. By the time that was all done, they
- 9:53Speaker 2: had a sixteen point lead in that stretch. And that
- 9:55Speaker 2: was all she wrote. That was all she wrote. Mister
- 9:58Speaker 2: MVP Alexander, in that stretch, you're the MVP. You're supposed
- 10:03Speaker 2: to make sure your team doesn't get buried. He took
- 10:05Speaker 2: four shots, missed three of the four, and the thunder
- 10:08Speaker 2: collectively shot twenty percent. That's pepe lepew, pay you twenty percent,
- 10:13Speaker 2: and even worse from behind the arc, one of nine
- 10:18Speaker 2: for a robust eleven point one percent from three point range.
- 10:22Speaker 2: So that was game, set and match. And on the
- 10:26Speaker 2: other side, though, we gotta go to the Denver side
- 10:28Speaker 2: of things, page two. Here, what was the thing that
- 10:33Speaker 2: pushed Nikola jokicchen the the Nuggets into the Winter Circle.
- 10:36Speaker 2: He was saying, well, it's gotta be Jamal Murray, It's
- 10:38Speaker 2: gonna be Murray Man. Murray was good. Okay, he was good.
- 10:40Speaker 2: Oh what about the Joker man, the joker dude. Oh yeah,
- 10:43Speaker 2: joker was good. But it was someone we've never heard of,
- 10:46Speaker 2: Julian Strather who he went KFC in this game. Strather, who, well,
- 10:53Speaker 2: I guess he was the first round pick, but he
- 10:54Speaker 2: must have been one of those picks we don't pay
- 10:56Speaker 2: attention to near the end of the first round. But
- 10:57Speaker 2: he had the secret blend like KFS. He had eleven
- 11:00Speaker 2: herbs and spices all by himself in the back breaking
- 11:04Speaker 2: run for the Denver basketball team, that ten minute stretch
- 11:09Speaker 2: where they took the game over there and ended up
- 11:12Speaker 2: getting done the perfect ten if you will, as we're
- 11:14Speaker 2: calling here, he single handedly outscored a guy we've never
- 11:19Speaker 2: heard of, Julian Strather outscored the entire Oklahoma City team.
- 11:25Speaker 2: He had fifteen points by himself all in that stretch,
- 11:29Speaker 2: and Oklahoma City as a team had thirteen points in
- 11:33Speaker 2: that stretch. So he was bounding and astounding out there
- 11:38Speaker 2: and just dropping out of thin air. And in that
- 11:43Speaker 2: period of time, it was like he was back in
- 11:44Speaker 2: college and he was swooping and hooping and all that.
- 11:47Speaker 2: And Nikola jokis you figure he's dependable. Jamal Murray not
- 11:51Speaker 2: as dependable, although he does seem to make a lot
- 11:54Speaker 2: of big baskets in playoff games. He's won several playoff
- 11:59Speaker 2: games in recent years with clutch play. But those guys,
- 12:04Speaker 2: you you kind of assume they're gonna be there. The
- 12:06Speaker 2: other Jabbronis are the gay and that that is problematic
- 12:09Speaker 2: as we turn the page here going into a game
- 12:11Speaker 2: seven situation, because now it comes down to the greatest
- 12:15Speaker 2: two words in sport, Game seven. All the marvels, winner,
- 12:22Speaker 2: take all, winner, take all? Oh my god, winner, take all?
- 12:27Speaker 2: The tension, the drama, oh rama, O MG, what is
- 12:34Speaker 2: going to happen? You don't know, You don't know what
- 12:37Speaker 2: you don't know, so you gotta watch to see if
- 12:40Speaker 2: you can find out what you don't know. Well, here
- 12:44Speaker 2: is Shay Jogis. Alexander as the expected MVP, is going
- 12:50Speaker 2: to tell you his thoughts on a Game seven. Take
- 12:53Speaker 2: a listens, Stuart, I, it's oh what you did it for?
- 12:59Speaker 2: Where's your whole? Yes, either your dream continues or your
- 13:03Speaker 2: dream ends. So you lay it all out there on
- 13:05Speaker 2: the floor and live with the results.
- 13:07Speaker 3: Pro me.
- 13:08Speaker 2: I'm excited for the opportunity for sure. Okay, well you
- 13:12Speaker 2: should get into talk radio because every hour is Game seven.
- 13:16Speaker 2: At any moment, could say the wrong thing, Game over.
- 13:19Speaker 2: That's it. You just have to live with the results
- 13:21Speaker 2: of the of the show. Every night, Game seven, every
- 13:24Speaker 2: minute the VU meter is moving Game seven. That's see,
- 13:28Speaker 2: these athletes only get a few Game sevens. Every single
- 13:31Speaker 2: segment is a Game seven in talk radio, every single segment.
- 13:34Speaker 2: All right, so let's let's get us the game will
- 13:36Speaker 2: be playing. As we mentioned, in Oklahoma City, the thunder
- 13:38Speaker 2: were the highest seed in the entire NBA the sixty
- 13:44Speaker 2: eight win regular season. They were the number on the
- 13:47Speaker 2: overall seed. And are Nicola jokicch and the Nuggets doomed?
- 13:54Speaker 2: Are they doomed having to play in Oklahoma City for
- 13:56Speaker 2: a Game seven? And my answer is three words, not
- 14:01Speaker 2: at all, Not at all. And after asking the counsel
- 14:06Speaker 2: of the magic eight ball, we went up to the
- 14:08Speaker 2: magic eight ball. We said, magic eight ball, almighty all powerful,
- 14:11Speaker 2: magic eight ball. If Denver, we asked the magic ball,
- 14:17Speaker 2: does Denver have a legitimate opportunity to win Game seven
- 14:22Speaker 2: in Oklahoma City? The magic eight ball? We shook it.
- 14:25Speaker 2: It replied outlook good, let me repeat that outlook good
- 14:31Speaker 2: from the magic eight ball. So we will be betting
- 14:34Speaker 2: on the Nuggets while the Thunder we'll have the crowd
- 14:37Speaker 2: on their side, and I'm sure they'll make a big deal.
- 14:39Speaker 2: They'll all wear the same colored T shirts and all that.
- 14:42Speaker 2: My argument is this, it is an antiquated take that
- 14:47Speaker 2: home court matters in modern basketball. It is an antiquated take.
- 14:51Speaker 2: Let me make my elevator pitch. I'll give you my
- 14:53Speaker 2: supporting Gavin is why is an antiquated take at home
- 14:56Speaker 2: court matters in these playoffs. NBA teams are thirty one
- 15:00Speaker 2: and thirty if my malor math is correct, in the
- 15:03Speaker 2: playoffs at home, they're one game above five hundred at
- 15:08Speaker 2: home the home team. If you look at game seven
- 15:12Speaker 2: since twenty twenty one, the home team is only five
- 15:17Speaker 2: and ten in game seven since twenty twenty one. There
- 15:21Speaker 2: is a massive seed change that has taken place since
- 15:25Speaker 2: the pandemic in home court advantage. What used to be
- 15:30Speaker 2: is no longer like it's an old It's like say,
- 15:33Speaker 2: defense wins championships in football. While you're dating yourself. Home
- 15:37Speaker 2: court historically the home team had won but seventy nine,
- 15:43Speaker 2: almost eighty percent of the time there's been a dramatic
- 15:46Speaker 2: change in recent years. Now, why is that, Well, there's
- 15:49Speaker 2: a lot of variables. One of the variables is the
- 15:51Speaker 2: teams don't really give a crap about the regular season.
- 15:54Speaker 2: That's one of them, right. You also have the load
- 15:57Speaker 2: management see first point for second point, and the fact
- 16:02Speaker 2: that all these arenas are pretty much the same. There's
- 16:05Speaker 2: no they're all I've been to NBA games in different cities.
- 16:09Speaker 2: They play the same music, The cheerleaders come on the
- 16:13Speaker 2: court at the same time, the mascot comes out at
- 16:15Speaker 2: the same time. It's just a different outfit for the
- 16:18Speaker 2: cheerleaders or the mascots that got a different costume. But
- 16:21Speaker 2: it's all cookie cutter. It's all essentially the same every
- 16:25Speaker 2: city you go through. But in terms of the pressure,
- 16:27Speaker 2: we know, pressure breaks pipes and pipe pipes burst. Because
- 16:30Speaker 2: so there's obviously more on the Thunder, and we all
- 16:33Speaker 2: agree on that there's going into Game seven, there's more
- 16:35Speaker 2: pressure on the Thunder. Dream season number one season, sixty
- 16:39Speaker 2: eight wins, sixty eight win season. You've got Shade Jogis,
- 16:43Speaker 2: Alexander sga is gonna be the MVP phenomenal. He's been
- 16:48Speaker 2: good in this series. Averaging twenty eight points and almost
- 16:51Speaker 2: eight rebounds and seven assists and a bunch of steals.
- 16:55Speaker 2: He has not hurt. He's not earned the dependable label.
- 16:58Speaker 2: And I look at the Nugget's like, well, the nugget, Yeah,
- 17:01Speaker 2: Jokic has been the best player in the series, and
- 17:04Speaker 2: career wise, he's a much better career player than SGA
- 17:09Speaker 2: side by side, and you figure out he will dominate,
- 17:11Speaker 2: he should dominate the big guys. In game seven, they
- 17:15Speaker 2: got Chet Holmgren and Isaiah Hartenstein for Oklahoma City. And
- 17:20Speaker 2: even though Jokic had a couple of duds in this series,
- 17:24Speaker 2: it wasn't because of anything Oklahoma City was doing. He
- 17:27Speaker 2: just didn't play well in a couple of games. But
- 17:29Speaker 2: you just look at the Nuggets. They can still smell
- 17:32Speaker 2: they can smell that twenty twenty three title. And they've
- 17:35Speaker 2: got a joker as a coach, not just a joker
- 17:38Speaker 2: as a player. The impractical jokers look alike the James
- 17:41Speaker 2: Murray of NBA coaches, David Adaman, the NEPO baby who
- 17:45Speaker 2: took over for the coach people thought was good Malone
- 17:50Speaker 2: right before the playoffs started. So when you whack your
- 17:53Speaker 2: coach before the playoffs, you're pretty much saying we're not
- 17:55Speaker 2: good enough. We don't think we're gonna be good enough,
- 17:58Speaker 2: we don't think we're going to win. Otherwise you wouldn't
- 18:02Speaker 2: make that particular move right before the playoff. So that's
- 18:05Speaker 2: the setup going into a Game seven between the Thunder
- 18:09Speaker 2: and the Nuggets. It is the Ben Mahlor Show. We
- 18:13Speaker 2: are just beginning and we have the strength of numbers,
- 18:16Speaker 2: meaning you are part of this. We're all in this
- 18:19Speaker 2: thing together, working the third shift and being up all night.
- 18:21Speaker 2: And if you'd like to join the talk festivus here,
- 18:25Speaker 2: even though we might be worlds apart, we're united by
- 18:27Speaker 2: audio content. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. That's
- 18:31Speaker 2: eight seven seven nine nine six six three sixty nine.
- 18:35Speaker 2: We'll get down and dirty here on the talk radio,
- 18:37Speaker 2: also on X and you can say hello on the
- 18:42Speaker 2: X machine, hide behind your smartphone, be a smartphone smartphone
- 18:46Speaker 2: tough guy and say hello there and spice things up
- 18:50Speaker 2: that way. At Ben Maler, that is at Ben Mahler.
- 18:55Speaker 2: This is the Friday Fun Day edition of the Overnight Show.
- 18:59Speaker 2: So what that means the Friday Fun Day edition of
- 19:01Speaker 2: the Overnight Show. Later on we'll have Mallard of the
- 19:04Speaker 2: third degree. We'll have the Riddle of the Day, Lame
- 19:08Speaker 2: Jokes of the week, the Coop Scoop. On entertainment, we'll

- 20:45Speaker 2: in his eye, Ben. And so we got a couple
- 20:49Speaker 2: of games left, at least a couple of games left
- 20:52Speaker 2: in the NBA playoffs, and Game seven on Sunday, Sunday Sunday,
- 20:57Speaker 2: which is now gearanteed between the Thunder and the Nuggets. Now,
- 21:02Speaker 2: Oklahoma City was favored in the game that was played
- 21:05Speaker 2: on Thursday night. They were a five point favorite when
- 21:08Speaker 2: that line opened. They ended up a five and a
- 21:10Speaker 2: half point favorite. They lose the game outright. So now
- 21:13Speaker 2: we get to a game seven and the point spread
- 21:17Speaker 2: out that is on Sunday afternoon, three point thirty Eastern time,
- 21:22Speaker 2: Game seven, Oklahoma City hosting Denver, and the opening overnight line,
- 21:28Speaker 2: the overnight line on this the Thunder opened up a
- 21:31Speaker 2: nine point favorite in that game. It is already down
- 21:35Speaker 2: to seven and a half. So down to seven and
- 21:39Speaker 2: a half, and do not have any early numbers on that.
- 21:42Speaker 2: The numbers don't come out till later about where the
- 21:44Speaker 2: money is. But right now, Thunder favored by seven and
- 21:47Speaker 2: a half and moving. That line is active on the
- 21:52Speaker 2: overnight for Game seven, which we played on Sunday afternoon.
- 21:57Speaker 2: Will there also be an Eastern Conference Game seven and
- 22:00Speaker 2: the Celtics and the Knicks they will play later tonight
- 22:04Speaker 2: Friday night Midtown Manhattan, and the Knicks opened up a
- 22:09Speaker 2: two and a half point favorite in that game and
- 22:13Speaker 2: that line has stayed flat. Knicks favored by two and
- 22:17Speaker 2: a half. The public all over the Knicks. The sharp
- 22:23Speaker 2: money in a lean towards the Knicks, but it's not
- 22:27Speaker 2: as dramatic as the public. The public's more the average better,
- 22:31Speaker 2: more into the Knicks than the wise guys are. But
- 22:34Speaker 2: both sides have the team from Gotham as the right
- 22:38Speaker 2: side in that game. So we began here yapping about
- 22:43Speaker 2: the Thunder from down under the ten minute stretch. Game
- 22:47Speaker 2: was tied at eighty late third quarter ten minute stretch
- 22:51Speaker 2: and they just couldn't get any right, and then the
- 22:54Speaker 2: Denver Nuggets schooled them, built up a sixteen point lead
- 22:58Speaker 2: and then held on as someone named Julian Strather off
- 23:02Speaker 2: the bench fifteen points, three of four on moneyballs, and
- 23:08Speaker 2: he hit more three point shots than any Oklahoma City player.
- 23:13Speaker 2: Hey did not, as the line goes, did not have
- 23:16Speaker 2: that on the old Bengo card going into the game.
- 23:19Speaker 2: But there will be a game on a Sunday and
- 23:22Speaker 2: we will take your comments. We'll go to the phones
- 23:24Speaker 2: here in a minute. Also, you must be in the
- 23:27Speaker 2: front row. You must be in the front row. We'll
- 23:30Speaker 2: get to that late night. Drug tester says it didn't
- 23:33Speaker 2: pan out last round, but I am doubling down for
- 23:36Speaker 2: a round two. If Denver loses Game seven, it'll be
- 23:40Speaker 2: because Nikola Jokic got distracted by the preaking mistakes race
- 23:44Speaker 2: this Saturday. Yeah, well, I'm not sure how that's gonna
- 23:48Speaker 2: work because the game's on Sunday and I don't know
- 23:50Speaker 2: about that. You know, I'm not how that goes. What
- 23:55Speaker 2: else do we have? This is page down. Terry in England,
- 24:00Speaker 2: uh says, a good job by you. The daily big board.
- 24:04Speaker 2: That's right, Sterry. That is a big board. That is
- 24:06Speaker 2: not a list. We do not do lists, absolutely, Milkman
- 24:10Speaker 2: Mike and Colorado says, great monologue to start the end
- 24:12Speaker 2: of the work week. I know you don't do shout outs,
- 24:15Speaker 2: but if you did, I'd ask for a shout out
- 24:18Speaker 2: to my step son Thomas and his fiance Emily, who
- 24:22Speaker 2: are getting married on Sunday. Well, yeah, Milkman Mike, Now, Loraina,
- 24:27Speaker 2: we don't do that. We're not a morning show. Morning
- 24:29Speaker 2: shows get paid a lot of money. The company likes them,
- 24:32Speaker 2: gives them bonuses, and we don't get any of that stuff.
- 24:34Speaker 2: So we can't do shout outs. We're not. I mean,
- 24:36Speaker 2: once we start getting that stuff, I'll be more than
- 24:38Speaker 2: happy to do shoutouts.
- 24:39Speaker 4: I understand, Ben, but yes, I love love.
- 24:44Speaker 2: No, no, no, don't silly. I mean, we can say mazeltop,
- 24:49Speaker 2: but we can't. That's about as far as we can go.
- 24:52Speaker 2: And then we can pivot from that Lorena and say,
- 24:54Speaker 2: I can't think of a better gift for Milkman Mike's
- 24:59Speaker 2: steps on and fiance Emily. Thomas and Emily. What a
- 25:03Speaker 2: better wedding gift when they get married there than a
- 25:06Speaker 2: trip to a Mallard meet and greet. Wouldn't that be
- 25:08Speaker 2: just perfect? They could show up to Vancouver and hang
- 25:11Speaker 2: out with us at the mall brilliance, right, come on, brilliant.
- 25:15Speaker 2: We are less than two weeks await. It does not
- 25:17Speaker 2: feel like that. It does not feel like we're less than.
- 25:20Speaker 4: Tone because every day I wake up and I'm like,
- 25:22Speaker 4: is today the day? We go to Canada?
- 25:24Speaker 2: Really? Every day?
- 25:25Speaker 4: Every day?
- 25:26Speaker 2: No, No, I've been able to compartmentalize. I just like
- 25:29Speaker 2: worry about that day. It sounds like bull crap, but
- 25:32Speaker 2: I just do it. And then one day I'm gonna
- 25:34Speaker 2: wake up, I'm like, holy crap, I gotta go to Vancouver,
- 25:36Speaker 2: like today is the day? And then I'll worry about that.
- 25:40Speaker 2: But I socks.
- 25:41Speaker 4: Make sure you pack enough socks. Guys, Okay, no.
- 25:44Speaker 2: He cares. You can buy socks anywhere. No, no, no, anywhere. Literally,
- 25:48Speaker 2: I could be in pyong Yang and buy socks. It
- 25:50Speaker 2: doesn't matter. You can buy socks anywhere in US.
- 25:54Speaker 1: Socks.
- 25:56Speaker 2: Why why do women worry so much about pack? Guys
- 25:59Speaker 2: don't worry about pack. They don't worry about that is
- 26:02Speaker 2: throw some stuff in the bag. You're You're done, and
- 26:05Speaker 2: now I don't go full. Rob park my guy Rob
- 26:07Speaker 2: Parker here, like he'll he flies Spirit airlines. You know
- 26:11Speaker 2: they charge you when you breathe every breath of air.
- 26:13Speaker 2: They charge you on Spirit Airlines. So Rob, he'll just
- 26:16Speaker 2: take the clothes on his back, or he'll layer his clothes.
- 26:19Speaker 2: He's told me the story, he's talked about it on
- 26:20Speaker 2: the show. He'll like layer his clothes and then we goes.
- 26:23Speaker 2: He'll fly like Atlanta because he loves the ballet there
- 26:26Speaker 2: in Atlanta, and then he'll just buy some clothes at
- 26:29Speaker 2: a you know, secondary store and just leave him there.
- 26:32Speaker 2: That's like, and it's cheaper. That's how expensive the baggage is.
- 26:36Speaker 2: It's cheaper just to do that than to buy or
- 26:38Speaker 2: to bring your clothes anyway. Spock's Weed writes in says,
- 26:43Speaker 2: I missed most of the male monologue to a last
- 26:47Speaker 2: minute house chores. Who's doing house chores at this hour?

- 27:03Speaker 2: but you can listen and multitask anyways. Spox Weed says,
- 27:07Speaker 2: I'm sure it's an A plus plus good job by you.
- 27:13Speaker 2: Firk Dog says you better post the rundown asp or
- 27:17Speaker 2: a certain someone is going to frege out. We posted it.
- 27:20Speaker 2: We posted it. Nature Boy answering the call a wild
- 27:24Speaker 2: says he asked, he asked the magic eight ball. He said, Nuggets,
- 27:31Speaker 2: who's winning Game seven? The magic eight ball told him
- 27:34Speaker 2: the Nuggets, of course, is the way that went, so
- 27:40Speaker 2: very exciting, very very excited. We will take some calls here.
- 27:43Speaker 2: Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox is the call
- 27:48Speaker 2: in number, and we have lame jokes of the week
- 27:51Speaker 2: that'll be coming up in our number three. All the yes,
- 27:58Speaker 2: all the great Zingers and one line and weed Man
- 28:01Speaker 2: will be here. It'll be amazing and stunning and wild
- 28:06Speaker 2: and all that. Let's go to the phones and we'll
- 28:08Speaker 2: start out Eenie Meanie money. Let's go now to a
- 28:12Speaker 2: man who I don't did he call after the last
- 28:14Speaker 2: Nuggets lost. I don't think he did, but he's on
- 28:17Speaker 2: the phone now after they won. Let's go to the
- 28:20Speaker 2: top nugget lap Dog that calls this show from Colorado.
- 28:24Speaker 2: He's in Denver and his name is Jeff, and he's
- 28:28Speaker 2: on the radio right now. Hello, Jeff, Welcome, Hey man,
- 28:32Speaker 2: I do believe I did call in and did you?
- 28:35Speaker 2: I don't remember talking to you when we lose them
- 28:37Speaker 2: when we win.
- 28:38Speaker 5: But tonight tonight was great. They've had a lead in
- 28:42Speaker 5: the last two games if it just couldn't hold it,
- 28:44Speaker 5: but tonight they held it, But yeah, does many nervous?
- 28:49Speaker 5: Is Aaron Gordon grabbed that? We got we got the
- 28:51Speaker 5: wammi hammy going on.
- 28:53Speaker 2: Now that's part of it. If you're if you're not healthy,
- 28:57Speaker 2: you're not gonna win. That's that's how it works.
- 28:59Speaker 5: So yeah, but Luke, But with that, if Aaron Gordon
- 29:03Speaker 5: can't play on Sunday, it's a fifty to fifty. But
- 29:07Speaker 5: if Aaron Gordon can go, I think we can take it.
- 29:11Speaker 2: Because well even if we hold one, even if he plays,
- 29:14Speaker 2: is he gonna play, how's he gonna plays? He mean
- 29:16Speaker 2: he good? Or is he gonna suck? Because if he
- 29:19Speaker 2: plays and he sucks, who cares? If he plays or not?
- 29:21Speaker 2: Have somebody else in there who maybe won't suck. Give
- 29:24Speaker 2: somebody cares.
- 29:26Speaker 5: Aaron Gordon is the one that does a dirty work
- 29:27Speaker 5: down low.
- 29:29Speaker 2: If he that's fine. I mean, you said he didn't
- 29:33Speaker 2: do anything in this game. He played, He played thirty
- 29:35Speaker 2: eight minutes and he didn't really do much and they
- 29:37Speaker 2: won anyway, so that's fine. He didn't really make any
- 29:41Speaker 2: real meaningful impact. I mean a few assists, a few rebounds,
- 29:44Speaker 2: but he didn't. It wasn't a factor in all on
- 29:46Speaker 2: the offense at all and they still won the game
- 29:48Speaker 2: going away. But he's the one that does a dirty
- 29:51Speaker 2: work down all right, you keep saying dirty work. I
- 29:53Speaker 2: can do dirty work too. I can pick up trash.
- 29:56Speaker 5: No, but without him pushing the other guy?
- 29:59Speaker 2: Are you? I feel like you're making excuses already. You're
- 30:02Speaker 2: making excuses already. Bad job by you, you are, You're
- 30:06Speaker 2: making You're like, well, if Gordon's not able to go,
- 30:08Speaker 2: we're screwed. Oh man, come on, no, go out there,
- 30:13Speaker 2: Go out there and win the game. Who cares who's playing,
- 30:16Speaker 2: who's not playing. Just go out there and win the game.
- 30:19Speaker 2: Because the pressure is actually not on the Nuggets, the
- 30:21Speaker 2: pressures on Oklahoma City in Game seven because they won
- 30:25Speaker 2: sixty eight games. This is the dream season for the
- 30:28Speaker 2: Thunder all these young lads and all that. The coming
- 30:31Speaker 2: of age. It's like a coming of age movie in Hollywood.
- 30:33Speaker 2: This is their coming of age moment. But they still
- 30:36Speaker 2: have another one even if they win that game on Sunday,
- 30:38Speaker 2: because they have to play Minnesota in the Western Conference Finals.
- 30:40Speaker 2: But the pressures on them to not suck, not screw
- 30:44Speaker 2: this up.
- 30:46Speaker 5: Oh, I agree. The pressure's on Okay because they've never
- 30:48Speaker 5: been in the game seven.
- 30:50Speaker 2: Well, it's not even that. It's just that if they
- 30:52Speaker 2: lose at home in a game seven and against a
- 30:55Speaker 2: nugget team where they're supposed to beat. Let's be fair,
- 30:58Speaker 2: they're supposed to win this series as the top seed
- 31:00Speaker 2: in the NBA, and if they screw this thing up,
- 31:05Speaker 2: start asking questions and their total frauds Like Cleveland.
- 31:10Speaker 5: Oh, when sc get him fould trouble, they like they
- 31:14Speaker 5: had the the WT flick on their face, So like, uh, oh.
- 31:18Speaker 2: Well yeah, but that's another factor that you don't like
- 31:21Speaker 2: to talk about. Right, what's going to happen in a
- 31:23Speaker 2: game seven houses the game going to be officiated? Is
- 31:26Speaker 2: is Jokis gonna end up with two fouls in the
- 31:28Speaker 2: first five minutes of the first quarter and Murray got
- 31:32Speaker 2: in in foul trouble and stuff like that.
- 31:35Speaker 5: I think they didn't. They didn't have three guys like
- 31:41Speaker 5: attacking Joker tonight. The ball was moving a little bit
- 31:44Speaker 5: better and Jamal was supposedly sick. But the next time
- 31:49Speaker 5: I get sick, I want the juju in the locker
- 31:51Speaker 5: room that he got and I'll be ready to go to.
- 31:53Speaker 2: The next They always do this, It's NBA puffery. Every
- 31:57Speaker 2: NBA player that's sick is about to die. It's all
- 32:00Speaker 2: it's all bs, it's bull crap. Anyway, I gotta I
- 32:05Speaker 2: gotta go. Thank you, all right, And Joe, I'm sure
- 32:07Speaker 2: you'll call up after Game seven unless the Nuggets get
- 32:10Speaker 2: run off the court and lose by thirty points and
- 32:12Speaker 2: then you won't call up. Yeah.
- 32:14Speaker 4: I loved his PG thirteen vocabulary.
- 32:17Speaker 2: You enjoyed that, so you have to rather than like
- 32:20Speaker 2: Tony in the Bay Area, who I like him. I
- 32:23Speaker 2: romanticize Tony's phone calls, but every phone call ends with
- 32:26Speaker 2: an S word or an F word or some other
- 32:28Speaker 2: exotic curse work.
- 32:29Speaker 4: Yeah, I like that. He was like, WTF. I'm like, yeah, yeah,
- 32:33Speaker 4: I don't got a dump that.
- 32:35Speaker 2: Well, you could say what the and then just pause
- 32:37Speaker 2: and people know that skids. Yeah, you know, I could
- 32:40Speaker 2: rhapsodize that way about it, and then that's fine as well. Anyway,
- 32:44Speaker 2: let's go back to the phones. We go to Dallas,
- 32:46Speaker 2: but not Charlie. We'll get to Charlie La. Let's go
- 32:48Speaker 2: to Jola in Dallas. What's up, Joela? Welcome Jola, Jola

- 33:12Speaker 1: Huh no, not in the bathroom finally.
- 33:16Speaker 2: All right, the Dallas Dumper is here, but not taking
- 33:18Speaker 2: a dump. Okay, what's on your mind?
- 33:22Speaker 1: I hate to say, Well, my Dallas Stars lost, which
- 33:29Speaker 1: was but my Dallas Stars will still win on Saturday,
- 33:38Speaker 1: which Autenger is really good and Charlie is really good.
- 33:45Speaker 1: But we have a really good team.
- 33:51Speaker 2: Charlie, Charlie, I feel like you're sputtering the call. Spell
- 33:53Speaker 2: you started the race and you stumbled out of the
- 33:56Speaker 2: starting block. Is that a correct take? Lorraine? Doesn't it
- 33:59Speaker 2: seem like Charlie he started the call and then he
- 34:01Speaker 2: stumbled right as he got out of the gates, right,
- 34:04Speaker 2: he's trying? Yeah? Can I can I help you, Charlie? Man,
- 34:12Speaker 2: I can help your take, just to give you some
- 34:14Speaker 2: talking points? No, sure, okay, you want to what's the
- 34:20Speaker 2: good talking about? How about the basketball?
- 34:23Speaker 5: Okay?
- 34:24Speaker 2: About it all right now, Steph Curry. He said he
- 34:27Speaker 2: was sad watching the Warriors lose to the Timberlves. Do
- 34:31Speaker 2: you have any advice to Steph Curry because he was sad?
- 34:39Speaker 5: Because I don't know.
- 34:44Speaker 2: That's a good take. Send that out, Coop. I don't
- 34:46Speaker 2: know that's the take right there. I don't know that's
- 34:49Speaker 2: the take. It's a great take. It's an honest take.
- 34:55Speaker 2: And you know what, nobody else has that take? Does
- 34:58Speaker 2: anyone else have I don't anyone else has that take.
- 35:01Speaker 2: I don't know that's an original take.
- 35:03Speaker 4: You know, I thought Charlie might have a really good
- 35:05Speaker 4: way to not feel so sad, maybe, you know, like
- 35:08Speaker 4: holding a stuffed animal or a stuffy Yeah.
- 35:12Speaker 2: You know, what do you do when you're sad? Charlie?
- 35:14Speaker 2: What do you what's your move to avoid being sad?
- 35:20Speaker 2: I go to my room? Oh there you go. Steph
- 35:24Speaker 2: Curry could have gone to his room. That could have
- 35:25Speaker 2: been your take. Steph Curry should go to his room
- 35:27Speaker 2: and play video games. Okay, all right, well thank you, Charlie.
- 35:34Speaker 2: Have a good week. ID pal, it's Charlie. That's our guy. Okay,
