2:05
Speaker 6: rap group and from the eighties horror movie you know
2:10
Speaker 6: it was. It was it was fun to explain. It
2:12
Speaker 6: was like here, let me, let me put this song

2:16
Speaker 2: And then if it's the summertime here we will also
2:18
Speaker 2: start playing a little bit of Dave Matthews having some fun.
2:23
Speaker 2: Saw a clip the other day that talked about going
2:26
Speaker 2: back to the spread of music and how it goes,
2:30
Speaker 2: and it was Dave Matthews saying, like they're part of
2:34
Speaker 2: What helped them was kind of the old Grateful Dead,
2:39
Speaker 2: kind of like that letting people play like record their
2:42
Speaker 2: music live because they weren't getting a lot of radio
2:45
Speaker 2: play when they.
2:46
Speaker 3: First when they first came out.
2:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that like they like they were like the
2:50
Speaker 2: the original like this or the the revamp of like
2:54
Speaker 2: college band, because that's where we like people will just
2:56
Speaker 2: make the cassette tapes and pass them out to the front.
3:00
Speaker 3: And that's the I mean.
3:02
Speaker 6: Think about if you go to the early to mid
3:06
Speaker 6: nineties and you say, here, I want you to listen
3:08
Speaker 6: to this group. It's a guy on a guitar, there's
3:12
Speaker 6: a violinist, a saxophone player, and a drummer.
3:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's going to be a hard pass for most
3:19
Speaker 3: people until.
3:20
Speaker 6: You to it, and so yeah, I mean to me,
3:24
Speaker 6: you know, I was shocked when I found out that,
3:26
Speaker 6: you know, Dave Matthews is South African, which by the way,
3:29
Speaker 6: I'm guessing he's kind of sad his his home, his
3:32
Speaker 6: host or his country lost two today. But nonetheless, you know,
3:38
Speaker 6: I always kind of associated him with say Hoody and
3:40
Speaker 6: the Blowfish coming out of that South Carolina college college band,
3:44
Speaker 6: and of course in the in the lineage of R. E.
3:47
Speaker 6: M and the B fifty two's coming out of Athens, Georgia,
3:49
Speaker 6: kind of that part of the country. But man, if
3:53
Speaker 6: I could if I could see Dave Matthews at Red Rock,
3:56
Speaker 6: that that bucket list right.
3:58
Speaker 2: There talking a lot of sports today really dove into
4:02
Speaker 2: and we may go back into it with with all of
4:04
Speaker 2: the issues going out in Texas Tech and.
4:08
Speaker 3: We're done. Now, we are done. We will keep on going.
4:10
Speaker 3: We have so much Oh no.
4:14
Speaker 7: This segment right here now, do not for a second
4:19
Speaker 7: thing that I am not about to just dive into
4:24
Speaker 7: head first what happened to the Spurs last night.
4:27
Speaker 6: I hope we have enough time with the hour that
4:29
Speaker 6: is left to talk about this, even if it means
4:32
Speaker 6: we're gonna have to cram what little World Cup at
4:35
Speaker 6: the very so yeah, well this all these four games
4:42
Speaker 6: and and really the these playoffs is I mean, these
4:45
Speaker 6: playoffs have kind of been a let down because you've
4:47
Speaker 6: only had I think six games decided by times blow up.
4:54
Speaker 6: But these these first four games have completely I mean,
5:02
Speaker 6: it's giving the It's given the Stanley Cup Championship a
5:05
Speaker 6: run for its money.
5:07
Speaker 3: Awesome too.
5:08
Speaker 2: And so yes, last the San Antonio Spurs.
5:13
Speaker 6: Which have absolutely no love for none and I'm indifferent, absolutely.
5:19
Speaker 2: Z Like I cannot stand that franchise, Like the fan base,
5:25
Speaker 2: like and I was I was talking the other day.
5:27
Speaker 2: Their fan base is the equivalent to me of the
5:29
Speaker 2: Dallas Cowboys fan base. Like that is how annoying their
5:33
Speaker 2: fans are with the The only caveat I will give
5:37
Speaker 2: them is at least they have won some championships in
5:40
Speaker 2: this century, looking at you Cowboys fans, because I know
5:43
Speaker 2: you haven't, but they are. The Spurs fans are that
5:45
Speaker 2: annoying to me, and the the they do an amazing
5:50
Speaker 2: job and you could almost kind of see it coming
5:53
Speaker 2: in Game three of fighting back, because again, if I'm
5:58
Speaker 2: looking at this from a pure basketball endpoint, San Antonio
6:01
Speaker 2: has played well in every single game, and somehow, whether
6:06
Speaker 2: it's the the gumption of New York or the game
6:11
Speaker 2: like the streak that they have been on throughout the
6:15
Speaker 2: Eastern Conference side of the playoffs, New York has ended
6:17
Speaker 2: up winning. And they won those two games in San Antonio.
6:21
Speaker 2: And I think part of that also was San Antonio
6:25
Speaker 2: unloaded a lot of emotional baggage coming out of the
6:28
Speaker 2: West and beating they they and people have said this,
6:32
Speaker 2: I didn't think it was true until now for San Antonio.
6:36
Speaker 2: I believe beating the Oklahoma City Thunder was their championship.
6:40
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, we talked about it the last time.
6:43
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, no, but we talked about it that and
6:47
Speaker 6: it was kind of the general perception that the Western
6:49
Speaker 6: Conference Finals was believed to be the true NBA championship
6:53
Speaker 6: because you thought those are the two best teams going
6:55
Speaker 6: up against each other, even though statistically speaking, if you
6:58
Speaker 6: looked at what the Knicks had done, no one else
7:01
Speaker 6: had done that, not just in the playoffs, ever in
7:04
Speaker 6: the league. So now, talking like you bring up the
7:09
Speaker 6: most extually the most pertinent point san Antonio has played, well,
7:12
Speaker 6: there's actually no reason they shouldn't have swept the Knicks.
7:17
Speaker 6: This could have been over last night four and oh
7:19
Speaker 6: it's simply because of what the Knicks were able to
7:22
Speaker 6: do in San Antonio.
7:23
Speaker 2: San Antonio has had a ten point lead in every
7:26
Speaker 2: fourth quarter of every game. Yes, every fourth quarter of
7:29
Speaker 2: every game. They have had at least a ten point lead.
7:31
Speaker 2: And they are down three to one.
7:33
Speaker 3: Now.
7:33
Speaker 2: Last night, not only did they have a ten point
7:37
Speaker 2: lead in the fourth quarter, they had a twenty nine
7:40
Speaker 2: point lead in the third quarter.
7:45
Speaker 6: I brought my analogical notes. Yes, we have numbers, we
7:49
Speaker 6: have stats. Okay, folks, I want you, I want you
7:54
Speaker 6: to just take this. In Teams down twenty in the
7:59
Speaker 6: postseason for the last two years, the Knicks are five
8:02
Speaker 6: and three. The rest of the league is four and
8:04
Speaker 6: seventy one. In Game four, at half, the Knicks had
8:10
Speaker 6: only made by At halftime, Nicks had only made fifteen
8:13
Speaker 6: shots in the first half, the Spurs had made fourteen threes. Yes,
8:18
Speaker 6: before last night, teams down twenty or more in the
8:22
Speaker 6: fourth quarter were four and seven hundred and fifty. Yep,
8:27
Speaker 6: until last.
8:28
Speaker 2: Night, until the Spurs just like and you played, and
8:32
Speaker 2: I'm glad you did. At the opening of the show today,
8:38
Speaker 2: Charles Barkley talking about how this was the dumbest basketball
8:45
Speaker 2: he has seen ever. Michael Wilbond said it this morning.
8:49
Speaker 2: They talked about it last night as I was as
8:52
Speaker 2: as nobody left Madison Square Garden last night. No Madison
8:57
Speaker 2: Square Garden last night.
8:58
Speaker 6: After that, real quick, let's give it to Mariska Hargaatea, because.
9:06
Speaker 3: You know, I love how nobody knows her name. Did
9:08
Speaker 3: I say you know everybody?
9:10
Speaker 1: No?
9:11
Speaker 2: Everybody on ESPN last night just kept calling her Olivia
9:14
Speaker 2: Benson right.
9:15
Speaker 6: Twenty plus years on Lawn Order SVU. She is currently
9:19
Speaker 6: on Broadway. She took over Daniel Radcliffe's role in Oh Man,
9:25
Speaker 6: I'm blanking on the on the play, but it was
9:27
Speaker 6: just nominated for a Tony. She performed at seven pm
9:31
Speaker 6: last night on Broadway and then got immediately over to
9:34
Speaker 6: Shed the first show. She did her show and got
9:38
Speaker 6: over to MSG. Saw her at the end. You could
9:42
Speaker 6: you saw it. You saw a New York Nick fan
9:46
Speaker 6: who was just exhausted from all the range of emotions.
9:50
Speaker 6: So I just wanted to give a shout out to
9:52
Speaker 6: Mariska for for for doing that, because that could have
9:56
Speaker 6: been easy. Hey, I'm gonna let the understudy take it. Nope,
9:58
Speaker 6: people paid for tickets to see me. I'm gonna perform
10:00
Speaker 6: and then I'm getting over. I'm on the floor. I'm
10:02
Speaker 6: a couple of seats down from t Swifty, all.
10:04
Speaker 3: Right, who would just kept grabbing her all night?
10:06
Speaker 6: But that's okay, So let's let's let's get back to
10:10
Speaker 6: last night. People. You you pointed it out at the
10:14
Speaker 6: beginning of the show. Yes, the Knicks continue to fight
10:20
Speaker 6: because there is a point, probably easily at halftime, but
10:23
Speaker 6: definitely in the third quarter where no one except those
10:28
Speaker 6: twelve players on the bench and that coaching staff thought
10:30
Speaker 6: they had a chance. And the only reason MSG is
10:34
Speaker 6: not emptying out is because of the price that people
10:37
Speaker 6: pay for those tickets. Because if that's any other if
10:40
Speaker 6: that's if, that is if the Knicks versus New Orleans
10:44
Speaker 6: and it's that scores and that that arena is half empty.
10:48
Speaker 3: December twelfth, Yeah, December twelfth.
10:51
Speaker 6: No one's leaving because everyone paid at least five, if
10:54
Speaker 6: not six, in some cases seven figures to be there.
10:57
Speaker 6: But Nicks think they're still in it, and you can
11:00
Speaker 6: see that they're fighting, but it really comes down to
11:03
Speaker 6: the Spurs and just an utter collapse and you know,
11:06
Speaker 6: a lot has been made about the officiating over these
11:09
Speaker 6: four games. And Wendy got his third flagrant, which some
11:13
Speaker 6: are you he should already have his fourth, which would
11:15
Speaker 6: then mean he's suspended. Once he gets his third flagrant,
11:21
Speaker 6: the Spurs go six for thirty five and more importantly
11:25
Speaker 6: two to fifteen for three.
11:26
Speaker 2: From that point four, Nick's going to thirteen oh run
11:29
Speaker 2: to start. Right from that moment, they go in to
11:31
Speaker 2: a thirteen oh run, They cut into the lead, they
11:34
Speaker 2: get it under twenty and the and I heard people
11:37
Speaker 2: say it was like it's you can't even say it's
11:39
Speaker 2: a snowball.
11:39
Speaker 3: It's like it was an avalanche effect of.
11:42
Speaker 2: What they're doing, their belief in themselves, the speaking of
11:46
Speaker 2: the Knicks, how they've been playing, the fact that they've
11:48
Speaker 2: done this the last two years, of coming back from
11:51
Speaker 2: twenty point leads twenty point deficits and been able to
11:55
Speaker 2: come back from that. And then what you also talked
11:57
Speaker 2: about when we were opening the show, Madison Square Garden
12:02
Speaker 2: came alive, and I cannot imagine what it is like
12:07
Speaker 2: to be and the only caveat and and slight bit
12:12
Speaker 2: of grace I will give the the San Antonio Spurs
12:17
Speaker 2: in this collapse is the fact that the oldest player
12:21
Speaker 2: on their team is twenty eight.
12:23
Speaker 6: Okay, that is one of the things I wanted I
12:25
Speaker 6: wanted to have the conversation about, because this is a
12:27
Speaker 6: young team. When you when you look at their stars,
12:29
Speaker 6: when you look at Wimby, you look at Fox, you
12:31
Speaker 6: look at Castle, you're talking about guys who are all
12:33
Speaker 6: twenty two or young younger. So this is a young team.
12:37
Speaker 6: It's also an inexperienced team.
12:40
Speaker 3: This is their head coaches first playoff experiences.
12:42
Speaker 6: Yeah, not exactly the best series for old Mitch Johnson,
12:45
Speaker 6: but we'll come back to that in a minute. What
12:48
Speaker 6: has always been the standard line when it comes to
12:50
Speaker 6: the NBA and you start talking about the playoffs, you
12:52
Speaker 6: gotta you gotta get as close, you gotta get.
12:54
Speaker 3: Right there, get there, get your heart taken up.
12:57
Speaker 6: You got because you gotta, you gotta get hardened. By
12:59
Speaker 6: that experience and the fact that this year they were
13:02
Speaker 6: able to slay the dragon of OKC, we're like, well,
13:07
Speaker 6: maybe it's different, and honestly speaking, yeah, it should be,
13:11
Speaker 6: because again, they could easily have swept the Knicks. They
13:13
Speaker 6: could be four and oh right now with the Larry
13:16
Speaker 6: O'Brien Trophy, but they're not. And I think last night
13:19
Speaker 6: is very emblematic of the fact, like you point out,
13:22
Speaker 6: this is a young team, because they were making they
13:26
Speaker 6: were making some serious mistakes and Daron Fox maybe is
13:31
Speaker 6: the most egregious of those mistakes.
13:35
Speaker 2: If there is a veteran on the team, it is
13:37
Speaker 2: Daron Fox. If there's a veteran on the team, and
13:40
Speaker 2: he's got I think one other playoff run, like not seri,
13:44
Speaker 2: but other playoff run, because I mean, what happens in Sacramento, Like, sorry,
13:48
Speaker 2: you weren't he wasn't making it to the playoffs very
13:50
Speaker 2: much that, but again, yes, you have to have some
13:54
Speaker 2: veteran leadership.
13:55
Speaker 3: And I saw people were talking about this in one.
13:57
Speaker 2: Too, like they took how many There was fifteen three
14:02
Speaker 2: pointers in the second half, and they took fifteen three
14:05
Speaker 2: point in the second half, and seven of those were
14:08
Speaker 2: with more than ten seconds left on the Playboff. There's
14:11
Speaker 2: that one time where it took eight threes in a
14:13
Speaker 2: row in a possession, which takes me back. And I'm
14:15
Speaker 2: still as a Rockets fan and I can't understand how
14:19
Speaker 2: the Rockets went one.
14:20
Speaker 3: For twenty six from the three. Do something else, And
14:23
Speaker 3: that was.
14:23
Speaker 6: That was something I wanted to talk to you about
14:25
Speaker 6: because look at the I mean, do something else Boston
14:29
Speaker 6: this year. Oh my god, when you just keep shooting
14:31
Speaker 6: threes and nothing's working. Detroit, I mean Detroit. We thought
14:34
Speaker 6: Detroit was going to make a run in this, in
14:36
Speaker 6: this and again. When you can't make shots, do something different.
14:40
Speaker 6: That's why I say Mitch Johnson's not necessarily having the
14:42
Speaker 6: best series because last night you're you're shooting that horribly.
14:48
Speaker 6: Do something different, because all all you're allowing the Knicks
14:52
Speaker 6: to do every time you clank it with that much
14:54
Speaker 6: time left on the clock, they're just going down, scoring
14:57
Speaker 6: another another bucket, getting two more and just cut into
15:00
Speaker 6: that lead. I mean, that's why I say deeron Fox
15:02
Speaker 6: probably have some of the most egregious fails, if probably
15:08
Speaker 6: the biggest one there at the end, you get the
15:10
Speaker 6: you get the turnover, you don't run the clock out,
15:14
Speaker 6: don't just go do a quick pick six like it's
15:16
Speaker 6: the first quarter. The clock is the most important thing.
15:19
Speaker 6: But now you run down and it's still just a
15:22
Speaker 6: one point game. So uh and by the way, the
15:25
Speaker 6: Aaron Fox probably saved Josh Hart from being the embarrassment
15:29
Speaker 6: because you you almost have a backcourt violation and then
15:34
Speaker 6: you have the miss layup that.
15:36
Speaker 3: And you could see it when he missed it and
15:38
Speaker 3: he turns on which.
15:39
Speaker 6: By the way, there is video out there. I will
15:42
Speaker 6: try and find it and share it. There is a
15:44
Speaker 6: camera angle that shows Larry David on the sideline standing
15:48
Speaker 6: and when Josh Hart misses that lay up, the body
15:51
Speaker 6: the expression in the body language he does is straight
15:54
Speaker 6: out of curve. I mean he is, He's just like
15:57
Speaker 6: the rest of us. How do you miss?
15:59
Speaker 3: How do you do that? And so the other side
16:02
Speaker 3: of that is the like.
16:09
Speaker 2: The Knicks continued to and that's the thing. The Knicks
16:12
Speaker 2: continued to play their game. They continue to get big
16:16
Speaker 2: shots from Brunson. They continued to get big shots from Ananobe.
16:20
Speaker 2: The switch up and was a huge thing and I
16:23
Speaker 2: didn't even pay that much attention to it because you
16:24
Speaker 2: just don't see him. Of what neutralized I think san
16:28
Speaker 2: Antonio's defense was having Alvarado out there with Brunson.
16:31
Speaker 6: I'm so glad you brought up Alvarado because Alvarado made
16:36
Speaker 6: more shots in the last nine minutes than the entire
16:39
Speaker 6: Spurs did. Yeah, Alvarado is is kind of He is
16:44
Speaker 6: truly value. He was a value pick up for this
16:47
Speaker 6: team and it and it came to pass last night.
16:54
Speaker 6: Going back to Brunson and Anobi, Brunson's been averaging around
16:59
Speaker 6: thirty points throughout the playoffs. Last night, Brunson and ob
17:02
Speaker 6: scored sixty nine points for the Knicks. The rest of
17:05
Speaker 6: the Knicks scored forty except for if you take away Alvarado,
17:10
Speaker 6: the Knicks bench only made two buckets all night long. Cat.
17:17
Speaker 6: It was clear what they were going to try and
17:18
Speaker 6: do with Cat at the beginning of the game. He
17:19
Speaker 6: gets those two fouls in that first minute, they have
17:22
Speaker 6: to completely change what they were playing on doing. And
17:25
Speaker 6: I want to go back to this because this is
17:26
Speaker 6: something that irritates me about NBA replayed because the Spurs
17:30
Speaker 6: challenge the foul on Wimby, and out of that the
17:34
Speaker 6: refs then attribute a foul to Kat at the beginning
17:38
Speaker 6: of that play. That's bull crap. If you're challenging the
17:44
Speaker 6: foul on Wimby, you can't go back and say, oh, well,
17:46
Speaker 6: we missed this. Because again, we have got to stop
17:51
Speaker 6: being reliant on the eye in the sky. Yes, officiating
17:55
Speaker 6: has to be better. It has to be held to
17:57
Speaker 6: a higher standard. It's got to be consistent. Wimby should
18:02
Speaker 6: have a fourth flagrant because of the of the shovedown
18:05
Speaker 6: of Brunson in Game three, the fact that that wasn't
18:07
Speaker 6: a flagrant, I still am just kind of flabbergasted.
18:10
Speaker 2: High And here's the thing. And I saw people talking
18:12
Speaker 2: about about this whether likes for all of game three,
18:17
Speaker 2: and I can understand based on how physical Game three
18:22
Speaker 2: was all the way through, why that wasn't why that
18:28
Speaker 2: wasn't picked up, why that wasn't seen, like because you
18:31
Speaker 2: look at game three, like the if the officials made
18:34
Speaker 2: a mistake in Game three, it wasn't that. It was
18:37
Speaker 2: that they lost control of that game very early on
18:41
Speaker 2: and there was no there wasn't any bringing it back.
18:45
Speaker 2: Maybe if I think this, and I can't help but
18:49
Speaker 2: laugh because of how Jalen Brunson, who's like six to two,
18:52
Speaker 2: so he's not sure we're going up against Wimby who's
18:55
Speaker 2: seven to five, but like Wemby pushes him and then
18:58
Speaker 2: Jalen brun yeah, puting.
19:00
Speaker 8: Back up right.
19:01
Speaker 6: I'm just like I think I think of like you know,
19:03
Speaker 6: either Gary Coleman or Webster, like pointing up at a
19:06
Speaker 6: corona after that. But on the subject of Brunson and
19:11
Speaker 6: and Og, the Knicks made the right choice because you
19:17
Speaker 6: had you had going into uh what was it this
19:20
Speaker 6: year or last year? They're trying to decide between Hartenstein
19:23
Speaker 6: and and Anobio two years ago and they go with
19:26
Speaker 6: an Obe and the dude, you don't think of him
19:30
Speaker 6: as a three point shooter.
19:31
Speaker 3: No, but he couldn't miss least he.
19:33
Speaker 6: Couldn't miss like this. Okay, I think I haven't been
19:36
Speaker 6: able to verify this. I believe he had the most
19:38
Speaker 6: efficient game, easily in the NBA Finals, maybe in the playoffs,
19:43
Speaker 6: maybe in the league. Ever, fifty two percent from the field,
19:47
Speaker 6: fifty six percent from three, ninety two percent from from
19:50
Speaker 6: the free thro line. In fact, one of his misshots
19:53
Speaker 6: was the one right before halftime where he it's three
19:55
Speaker 6: quarters of the just the link of the court and
19:57
Speaker 6: it clanks the I mean, you cannot that kind of efficiency,
20:02
Speaker 6: that's you cannot buy that, and they held onto it.
20:08
Speaker 6: Just incredible play from Oji. And again going back to
20:11
Speaker 6: the Spurs and the collapse.
20:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh no, I was ready to get back to Okay,
20:15
Speaker 2: I gave it, We gave the flowers gave.
20:17
Speaker 6: The next their flowers. Let's go to the last two
20:20
Speaker 6: key plays. So it's the it's the Knicks inbound, and
20:22
Speaker 6: then it's the Spurs inbound. So on the Knicks inbound,
20:27
Speaker 6: the Spurs commit. I've been using the term Cardinals and
20:30
Speaker 6: I'm gonna use it again. They choose not to defend
20:33
Speaker 6: the bound who is the inbounder? It's and what do
20:39
Speaker 6: you do when you turn your back on the inbounder?
20:41
Speaker 6: He's got forty five feet straight, straight.
20:44
Speaker 2: Running And then yeah, they did not so and I'm
20:46
Speaker 2: guessing what they thought was blitzing Jalen Brunson when he
20:51
Speaker 2: gets the ball in and I mean he got to
20:54
Speaker 2: the front of the rim. Yeah, that was a bat shot.
20:57
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, right deep it, I don't know.
21:01
Speaker 6: Is it a bad shot or is he counting on
21:04
Speaker 6: the put back?
21:04
Speaker 3: No, he's not killing. No, there's zero chance he's counting
21:08
Speaker 3: on that put back.
21:08
Speaker 2: Okay, he was winning, he was winning that basketball game,
21:12
Speaker 2: and had had O g Anoby not had a free
21:15
Speaker 2: run to the basket and in.
21:17
Speaker 6: The trompace jam esque armory the.
21:21
Speaker 2: Best controlled tip that you may ever see to put
21:25
Speaker 2: that ball in the basket.
21:26
Speaker 6: But again, folks completely undefended and uncontested.
21:30
Speaker 2: Completely absolutely So here's and again here's when I know
21:33
Speaker 2: what you're or at least I think we're talking about,
21:35
Speaker 2: of not having a a a person guarding the the
21:40
Speaker 2: person throwing the ballot because what happened on the on
21:45
Speaker 2: the Spurs bounds messed up their play.
21:47
Speaker 6: The Spurs get the exact look they're wanting, they're getting
21:50
Speaker 6: gonna they're gonna have a castle wide shot perfect because
21:56
Speaker 6: they are defending the inbound and he and.
22:00
Speaker 3: He got a like a something and it's.
22:02
Speaker 6: Just enough and it disrupts the throw Castle can't get
22:06
Speaker 6: the ball up in time. Game over.
22:07
Speaker 2: You've got a seven foot five inch alien that you
22:12
Speaker 2: don't utilize at all as this mountain of a run
22:17
Speaker 2: is happening against You don't utilize him at all to
22:23
Speaker 2: just say, hey, you know what, even if you're not
22:25
Speaker 2: gonna just go stand in the paint, we will throw
22:29
Speaker 2: you the ball to make them do something and slow
22:32
Speaker 2: the game down.
22:32
Speaker 3: But you don't want to do that, Okay, that's fine.
22:34
Speaker 2: Again, you don't want to then also utilize him to
22:41
Speaker 2: distract the like, why would you not have him going,
22:45
Speaker 2: especially if he's already he was up there guarding the
22:49
Speaker 2: three point line anyway. He was on the double team
22:52
Speaker 2: for Jaylon Brunson, So why wouldn't you have him guarding
22:55
Speaker 2: the ball out of bound? So at least distract if
22:56
Speaker 2: you're gonna go blitz anyway, if you're gonna go double
22:59
Speaker 2: team anyway, and he's gonna be the person to have him,
23:03
Speaker 2: have him make the out of bounds play a little bit.
23:05
Speaker 2: But that goes back to the the youth and the
23:08
Speaker 2: inexperience of not just their players but their coaching staff.
23:13
Speaker 2: Even if you want to say, hey, they still have
23:15
Speaker 2: coach Popovich to talk to you.
23:20
Speaker 6: Quick quick poll. Is Greg Popovich worth one point to
23:24
Speaker 6: the Spurs last night? Yes?
23:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, he absolutely, absolutely absolutely is also Greg popa Like
23:31
Speaker 2: they don't get that.
23:32
Speaker 3: They absolutely do not go on that run of Greg
23:34
Speaker 3: Popovich's there. They don't.
23:36
Speaker 2: They don't outscore, like you can't have what seventy seventy
23:39
Speaker 2: six points in the first half and only so like
23:41
Speaker 2: Greg Popovich isn't gonna let that happen. That's like there's
23:45
Speaker 2: there's a level.
23:46
Speaker 9: Of of.
23:48
Speaker 2: And that you can tell that with their coaching staff
23:52
Speaker 2: and their players. As one of the things you hear
23:55
Speaker 2: about Greg Popovich is they were prepared, like going through scenarios.
24:00
Speaker 2: And I love watching the All the Smoke podcast with
24:03
Speaker 2: Steven Jackson, and like he talks about like the stuff
24:06
Speaker 2: that you don't do everywhere else, and he talks about
24:09
Speaker 2: what Greg Popovitch turned like the better basketball player. It
24:11
Speaker 2: turned out he hated it when he was there, but
24:13
Speaker 2: it turned him into the better basketball player.
24:15
Speaker 3: Because you work on everything.
24:16
Speaker 2: It's why, like you talk about Nick Saban, like you
24:18
Speaker 2: work on everything not till you get it right, till
24:20
Speaker 2: you can't get it wrong exactly. And it's those things,
24:22
Speaker 2: and you can tell they were not ready for any
24:26
Speaker 2: of those situations.
24:27
Speaker 6: Finally, just before we go to the commercial break, you
24:30
Speaker 6: really have to to credit the fact that Brunson og
24:35
Speaker 6: even in their post game, they are as cool as
24:38
Speaker 6: the other side of the pillar. They're not They're not
24:41
Speaker 6: letting this get to their heads. They understand that the
24:43
Speaker 6: magnitude I mean that you know, Brunson's sitting next to
24:49
Speaker 6: Draymond in the post and you can see Draymond's just
24:53
Speaker 6: trying to get a rise out of Bruns and Brunson's
24:56
Speaker 6: just not going for it. No, he he wants out
24:58
Speaker 6: of there.
24:58
Speaker 2: Even Anonobi at the at the press conference, He's like, yeah,
25:01
Speaker 2: I mean I'm excited. Yeah, And everybody's laughing because there
25:05
Speaker 2: is zero excitement that is showing.
25:06
Speaker 10: Well.
25:07
Speaker 6: When Lisa Salter is talking to him at the end
25:09
Speaker 6: of the game, after he's he's made the shop, he's just, hey,
25:13
Speaker 6: you have utter chaos around you.
25:16
Speaker 3: I tipped it in coming back in just a second.
25:19
Speaker 2: We're gonna I want to ask what we're gonna what
25:21

30:35
Speaker 6: Yes, forever and ever. Yeah, I mean just and I
30:43
Speaker 6: need to get more of the eighties in the mix
30:46
Speaker 6: because trying to trying to educate our young producer on
30:53
Speaker 6: all that is that is the Janet catalog.
30:56
Speaker 3: Because you hadn't listened to any Janet before. Oh all right,
31:00
Speaker 3: well that's what we do. We we we bring, we
31:04
Speaker 3: bring knowledge, we.
31:05
Speaker 6: Try uh sometimes you know, some don't want the dual
31:11
Speaker 6: leap uh experience, which, by the way, I saw she
31:16
Speaker 6: just got married a couple of weeks ago, So I
31:18
Speaker 6: guess I can finally set.
31:19
Speaker 2: That that's that, that that's over for you.
31:23
Speaker 6: Yeah, sorry, babe, I know you still got George anyway.
31:30
Speaker 6: All right, So okay, let's so real quick just just
31:35
Speaker 6: to kind of put a bow on last night before
31:37
Speaker 6: we move on to to what we think is gonna happen,
31:40
Speaker 6: uh with with Game five. I have to say, you know,
31:44
Speaker 6: one of the more annoying things about Nick the Knicks
31:48
Speaker 6: is celebrity row because there are there are those who
31:53
Speaker 6: have been with the team through thick and thin following them,
31:59
Speaker 6: you know, just through major embarrassment. So you know, Spike Lee,
32:03
Speaker 6: Ben Stiller, Tracy Morgan, Yeah, she's been there a lot.
32:10
Speaker 6: You know, Timothy Shallomy, he's not a Johnny Come Lately.
32:13
Speaker 6: He's from Hell's Kitchen. He's been going to Knicks games forever.
32:18
Speaker 6: He I mean, he chose the Knicks over the met Gala,
32:21
Speaker 6: which Ben Stiller can't say, which I do want to say.
32:24
Speaker 6: I do want to say, Ben. And I know you're
32:27
Speaker 6: I know you've got the director bug in. You put
32:30
Speaker 6: your phone down your court side there in the moment.
32:34
Speaker 6: You don't have to be you don't need to be
32:36
Speaker 6: filming it. We're we're looking at you. We wouldn't see
32:39
Speaker 6: you anyway. But that was the incredible thing about last
32:43
Speaker 6: night was you know, you got Sandler, Jerry Seinfeld, Larry David,
32:48
Speaker 6: John McEnroe, John Calipari was there, Jay right, which he
32:52
Speaker 6: should be there, you know, that's two thirds of his.
32:57
Speaker 3: How many former Knicks were there, but it.
33:01
Speaker 6: Seems like all of me they brought Jerry you know,
33:04
Speaker 6: Jeremy Lynn was there.
33:06
Speaker 3: J Lynn was there.
33:07
Speaker 2: But like and this, it's Nicks that are like Larry Johnson.
33:11
Speaker 2: I he's a Charlotte hornet. Like I know he played
33:14
Speaker 2: for the Knicks, but like he's the reason why I
33:16
Speaker 2: got a purple start.
33:17
Speaker 6: Like so, do you know, do you know what I
33:19
Speaker 6: associate with Larry Johnson? And I still have his card.
33:22
Speaker 6: By the way, he started at Odessa College. You have
33:25
Speaker 6: that absolutely from Odesta College. But I'm with you, he's
33:30
Speaker 6: a he's a hornet.
33:31
Speaker 3: He's a Charlotte hornet.
33:32
Speaker 6: But he until this run, he probably had the most
33:37
Speaker 6: famous Nick's playoff moment ever, which is the four point play.
33:41
Speaker 6: Absolutely okay, so but yeah, when you saw all the
33:44
Speaker 6: celebrities and then more importantly, at the end of the game,
33:47
Speaker 6: no one was leaving the era and then you see
33:50
Speaker 6: all the footage when they finally do start leaving and
33:54
Speaker 6: Chalomay who's got Kylie Jenner and he's got security.
33:58
Speaker 2: If there's something I don't like about shall that he
34:00
Speaker 2: keeps bringing her to the games.
34:02
Speaker 6: But do you know what her quote was, No, I
34:05
Speaker 6: only I only get laid when the Knicks win. I
34:11
Speaker 6: do appreciate that. But as he's leaving, he's partying with
34:18
Speaker 6: with Knicks fans. He's he's fully in it because you
34:23
Speaker 6: got it. You have to be feelings and all the
34:27
Speaker 6: all the video footage of of New Yorkers who were
34:30
Speaker 6: watching the game with their windows open, and you can
34:32
Speaker 6: hear the collective city cheering towards the I mean, yes,
34:37
Speaker 6: And by the way, stephen A under cells, Uh, there's
34:39
Speaker 6: just a few bad eggs. No, there's a number of
34:41
Speaker 6: bad eggs in the Knick fandom, both from Game three
34:44
Speaker 6: and last night. But overall, the only thing I can
34:48
Speaker 6: say that I would feel like comes close to that
34:52
Speaker 6: was when we were in Tuscaloosa for a in Alabama
34:55
Speaker 6: twenty twelve and just being among those fans. I was
34:58
Speaker 6: not at and in Alabama twenty eighteen when we won
35:03
Speaker 6: on the walk off field goal, but I know that
35:06
Speaker 6: was a special night for me. I you know, those
35:11
Speaker 6: are just one one game events, whereas this is a
35:15
Speaker 6: this is the biggest city in the country, this is
35:18
Speaker 6: the one team they all support. Yes, they're not split between.
35:24
Speaker 3: You know, Oh, nobody, nobody, No.
35:26
Speaker 6: Because the Nets are still in New Jersey. Team it
35:28
Speaker 6: doesn't matter that they're in Brooklyn. Now everyone is a
35:32
Speaker 6: Knicks fan, and you have fifty plus years of frustration, yep,
35:37
Speaker 6: and you are now on the precipice of winning and
35:41
Speaker 6: realistically it could happen Saturday night, which I want to
35:44
Speaker 6: ask you this. I always remember NBA Finals games. I
35:49
Speaker 6: don't remember on Saturdays. I remember on Sunday nights. This
35:52
Speaker 6: this just gonna feels weird.
35:54
Speaker 3: Very very weird. I don't get the Yeah, how how
35:57
Speaker 3: they And.
35:58
Speaker 6: I don't know if it's because the World Cup that
36:00
Speaker 6: they're they're they're they want to they want to have
36:03
Speaker 6: that night window to themselves things go.
36:08
Speaker 2: To it and and thinking about how this is going
36:11
Speaker 2: to look in Game five. But I doant like there
36:14
Speaker 2: was a point. I think that's kind of what you
36:16
Speaker 2: were saying too, even while y'all were out at dinner,
36:18
Speaker 2: that when they get when the Spurs get that lead,
36:22
Speaker 2: and I'm like, Okay, the Spurs have now figured this out,
36:26
Speaker 2: they know what they are doing. Now, they've they've they've
36:29
Speaker 2: they've settled in, they they've got it all worked out.
36:32
Speaker 2: And I'm like, I can't see the Knicks winning two
36:35
Speaker 2: out of three with those games being in San Antonio.
36:39
Speaker 2: You were down by the dang near thirty point. I'm like,
36:41
Speaker 2: and I'm like, this is this is going It'll go seven,
36:45
Speaker 2: but the Spurs are gonna win. And by the time
36:48
Speaker 2: y'all got home, all of that had changed. And now
36:53
Speaker 2: the Knicks are up through one and I'm like, I
36:54
Speaker 2: don't know if I wouldn't be surprised. I don't think
36:57
Speaker 2: they get blunted, but I wouldn't be surprised at San
36:59
Speaker 2: Antonio loses by ten on Saturday. I wouldn't be surprised
37:03
Speaker 2: now based on that, yeah, based on how do you
37:07
Speaker 2: especially as a younger player, especially in a situation like that,
37:12
Speaker 2: I don't know how you recover mentally in that.
37:17
Speaker 6: To me, it's I hate to draw on a comparison
37:22
Speaker 6: to something fictional like Rocky, but that you have to.
37:26
Speaker 6: You really have to approach it that Jalen Brunson with
37:30
Speaker 6: this team is Rocky. He's he is never out. In fact,
37:34
Speaker 6: he is at his best at the end. And if
37:38
Speaker 6: the Spurs cannot, I mean, like we said, you are
37:44
Speaker 6: shooting threes at a horrific rate and you don't change it,
37:53
Speaker 6: and you're allowing the Knicks to just come back from
37:58
Speaker 6: twenty some odd points. I mean, call a time out
38:02
Speaker 6: and say, guys, give it to the giant seven foot
38:06
Speaker 6: guy who can literally just hold it up and put
38:09
Speaker 6: it in the basket.
38:10
Speaker 2: Eight straight three, So you come down, miss the three,
38:13
Speaker 2: they go down, the score, come down, shoot another three,
38:15
Speaker 2: they like, miss another three. They go down like at
38:19
Speaker 2: a certain point like why are like what are we doing?
38:22
Speaker 6: And they again, why are you doing it? With eight
38:25
Speaker 6: to twelve seconds left on the shot clock?
38:27
Speaker 3: Oh no, they had multiple words. It was ten plus
38:30
Speaker 3: on the shot clock.
38:32
Speaker 2: And I saw this this morning and it made me
38:34
Speaker 2: both laugh and cry because I remember the game, the
38:38
Speaker 2: thirty six to three Oilers game where and that was
38:40
Speaker 2: just in the playoffs. It wasn't it, but like where
38:43
Speaker 2: the Buffalo Bills come back?
38:45
Speaker 3: Very similar.
38:46
Speaker 2: Me and my dad went to Kroger on Southwold Parkway
38:48
Speaker 2: at halftime and come back and we're like, what the
38:50
Speaker 2: heck has happened. Michael Wilburm this morning was talking like
38:53
Speaker 2: he said that someone and I would like to see this.
38:55
Speaker 2: He said, someone did a statistic that if they took
38:59
Speaker 2: a knee, every play and then punted that they there's
39:04
Speaker 2: they would not have lost that game, right and there's God,
39:08
Speaker 2: I'm sure they will find a stat somewhere that they
39:11
Speaker 2: could have just let the twenty four second clock expire
39:15
Speaker 2: and then go down because the Knicks didn't make every shot,
39:17
Speaker 2: just let the twenty four second clock expire, and the
39:21
Speaker 2: Spurs probably could have won that game by just doing
39:24
Speaker 2: that instead of.
39:26
Speaker 6: And if they if they do that, then yeah, I
39:30
Speaker 6: don't see how the Knicks recover because you're you're showing
39:34
Speaker 6: if you're the Spurs, we can just put the foot
39:37
Speaker 6: on the throat anytime we want and just dominate, and
39:39
Speaker 6: we're gonna we will do it in in Frost Bank Arena.
39:43
Speaker 6: But man, after last night, that's I could. I can
39:49
Speaker 6: see the Spurs maybe squeaking out a game, squeaking it
39:52
Speaker 6: out in game five, but man, the Knicks.
39:55
Speaker 2: I can't imagine what New York will be like for
39:59
Speaker 2: game it. Yeah, the Spurs can pull out Game five.
40:05
Speaker 2: Can you imagine what Madison Square Garden is gonna be
40:08
Speaker 2: like for Game six?
40:10
Speaker 6: What I hope is they don't do what they do
40:13
Speaker 6: with they did with Game three. And no, I'm not
40:15
Speaker 6: talking about that one particular individual. I'm talking about giving
40:19
Speaker 6: or selling so many seats to the private equity bros.
40:24
Speaker 6: And the and and and the and and those guys.
40:27
Speaker 6: It's gotta it's gotta be your your true nick fans,
40:30
Speaker 6: the folks who have been coming to msg you through
40:34
Speaker 6: thick and thin. That's what will make that arena electric
40:38
Speaker 6: if they if it is, if it does require Game six.
40:40
Speaker 2: Back at the Mecca, Jared and I'll be back in
40:43
Speaker 2: just a second. Wrap up your Thursday workday, Get you

Speaker 2: Chipy our sports Talk Sports Radio eleven fifty AM, The
40:52
Speaker 2: Zone ninety through seven FM.
40:53
Speaker 9: It was after a hailstorm a few years back. I
40:56
Speaker 9: needed a new roof. Yeah, I shopped around and then
40:58
Speaker 9: I found Shulty Roofing Point. I'm glad I did. The
41:01
Speaker 9: folks at Shulty guided me every step of the way.
41:04
Speaker 9: They showed me my options, They told me what my
41:06
Speaker 9: out of pocket cost would be after insurance. They took
41:09
Speaker 9: the complication out of an otherwise very stressful situation. They
41:12
Speaker 9: took off the damage roof, put on the new roof,
41:15
Speaker 9: did all the clean up, and I had my new
41:16
Speaker 9: roof in one.
41:17
Speaker 11: Day, the whole by the roof.
41:25
Speaker 14: I'm Jat Nelson with your Texas Rangers report. The Rangers
41:28
Speaker 14: used an extra inning to tie up the series against
41:30
Speaker 14: the Kansas City Royals with the rubber match this afternoon.
41:33
Speaker 14: Details are coming up next.
41:35
Speaker 9: Hey, low water crossing, stop the car now, I'm gonna
41:38
Speaker 9: drive right through it.
41:39
Speaker 6: Oh not with me?
41:40
Speaker 3: Or not in Texas. Low water crossings fill up fast.
41:43
Speaker 3: Your vehicle can be swept away in two feet of water.
41:46
Speaker 6: Let's just turn around and go a different way.
41:49
Speaker 3: And be late for the party.
41:50
Speaker 2: Now I'm driving across it.
41:52
Speaker 3: What are you doing?
41:53
Speaker 6: I'm getting out.
41:54
Speaker 3: Wait wait, wait, hey, I've got an idea. How about
41:57
Speaker 3: we turn around, go a different way and be late
41:59
Speaker 3: for the party.
42:00
Speaker 6: You are so smart.
42:02
Speaker 3: Turn around, don't drown. A message from tex Dot.
42:05
Speaker 14: The Texas Rangers survived an extra inning thriller last night
42:08
Speaker 14: against the Kansas City Royals six to four, and now
42:11
Speaker 14: look to win the series this afternoon. The Royals struck
42:13
Speaker 14: first with an RBI single in the second, but it
42:15
Speaker 14: didn't take long for Texas to respond in the fourth
42:18
Speaker 14: with a bases loaded walk fall and play an RBI
42:20
Speaker 14: single for Nicky Lopez. Then the game went back and forth,
42:23
Speaker 14: as Casey used a pair of RBI singles in the
42:25
Speaker 14: fifth and sixth to regain the lead, then at Jake
42:28
Speaker 14: Burger homer tied the game at three. The Royals got
42:30
Speaker 14: an RBI triple from Nick Lofton in the following frame,
42:33
Speaker 14: but Jake Berger stole the thunderback with a sack fly
42:36
Speaker 14: in the eighth that I would force an extra inning
42:38
Speaker 14: where newcomer Elias Diaz would be the hero with an
42:40
Speaker 14: RBI double to take the lead and a Josh Young
42:43
Speaker 14: walk would give Texas an insurance run and eventually the
42:46
Speaker 14: six to four win. Game three determines the series. This afternoon,

44:51
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I mean again. You brought up Atlanta. We
44:54
Speaker 6: talked about t LC, talk about SWV. You talk about me,
44:58
Speaker 6: I don't U. Anne was watching the Netflix documentary talking
45:03
Speaker 6: about history of hip hop, and I came in while
45:07
Speaker 6: it's talking about Atlanta and Virginia and just the influence.
45:12
Speaker 6: Because you know, everyone thinks New York and the West
45:16
Speaker 6: Coast and some people know about the Third Coast. You
45:18
Speaker 6: really forget about just how important Atlanta and especially Virginia is.
45:23
Speaker 6: She was shocked she didn't know. Pharrell Williams wrote Rompshaker
45:29
Speaker 6: for Rex in Effects.
45:30
Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah for that.
45:30
Speaker 6: He's been doing it since he was in high school.
45:32
Speaker 2: Pharrell, Timberland, Missy, They're all from that Virginia area. And
45:36
Speaker 2: then you've got everything in Atlanta, like yeah, there's oh yeah,
45:40
Speaker 2: yeah Chip. How our sports talk Jason and Jared vibing
45:44
Speaker 2: up was this summer ninety three?
45:47
Speaker 3: I think it was a yeah.
45:48
Speaker 6: So this is the versionary song on Above the Rim soundtrack,
45:53
Speaker 6: So yeah, I think it's ninety three.
45:55
Speaker 3: Sports Radio eleven fifty AM, The Zone ninety three seven FM.
45:59
Speaker 2: A nice, say nice, it's still hot as all get
46:01
Speaker 2: out outside. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna even pretend
46:04
Speaker 2: to you that to say that it is a nice
46:06
Speaker 2: Thursday afternoon, it's June.
46:07
Speaker 3: You know what it feels like outside. Speaking of knowing what.
46:10
Speaker 2: It feels like outside, I have seen some of these
46:15
Speaker 2: World Cup teams as they are trying to get ready
46:19
Speaker 2: for for life here in the States when it comes
46:25
Speaker 2: to playing and I get like, there's and we say
46:27
Speaker 2: like there's heat, and then there's like what we got heat?
46:33
Speaker 3: There's you got.
46:35
Speaker 2: They don't have the moisture that sits in the in
46:37
Speaker 2: the atmosphere like that.
46:39
Speaker 3: We have that humidity that just sits on you.
46:42
Speaker 6: And so obviously Saturday night you had Argentina and Hondorras
46:50
Speaker 6: at Kyle Field, and then on I believe it was
46:54
Speaker 6: Tuesday night, Argentina made the trip out to Auburn, Alabama
46:58
Speaker 6: to play. Was that against England? I forget, forget who
47:03
Speaker 6: the Iceland? Okay, Iceland, uh, which you know MESSI couldn't
47:07
Speaker 6: take the field at Kyle Field but Jordan Hare and
47:10
Speaker 6: Pordacal But that's neither here nor there. Anyway, I've enjoyed
47:16
Speaker 6: like seeing the posts of not only the players but
47:19
Speaker 6: the fans who were coming to the States and getting
47:21
Speaker 6: exposure to America since the last time the World Cup
47:24
Speaker 6: was here. So obviously in ninety four, yes, there were
47:27
Speaker 6: BUCkies in Texas, but now now we have now the
47:32
Speaker 6: country has those.
47:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, those were that is, those are not the same thing.
47:36
Speaker 6: There the the idea that you tell someone, you tell
47:40
Speaker 6: someone from another country, yeah, it's a gas station, and
47:43
Speaker 6: they have the perception of what a gas station is
47:45
Speaker 6: based on where they're from. And then you pull up
47:47
Speaker 6: to the international airport. That is the BUCkies in uh,
47:53
Speaker 6: pick pick your which one. Yeah, I mean they're all
47:56
Speaker 6: they're all massive. So we're gonna talk World Cup. Not
48:02
Speaker 6: not a true expert, not an expert at all except
48:07
Speaker 6: in some aspects of the game of soccer. But what's
48:10
Speaker 6: great about this is, as we are about to probably
48:15
Speaker 6: see the end of our NBA and NHL seasons, we
48:19
Speaker 6: get a solid month of sport with the World Cup.
48:23
Speaker 6: In fact, starting today, you will have matches every single
48:28
Speaker 6: day until July seventh, take a day off, and then
48:33
Speaker 6: you get three days in a row after that, so
48:36
Speaker 6: plenty of soccer to watch. Obviously, we are supporting the
48:42
Speaker 6: United States.
48:44
Speaker 2: But.
48:46
Speaker 6: It might be they may have a rough go because
48:49
Speaker 6: this is while this team was supposed to be the
48:51
Speaker 6: Golden Generation, there have been various factors in US soccer
48:57
Speaker 6: that have impacted their ability to be competitive. I still
49:01
Speaker 6: think they'll do well. They will probably make it out
49:05
Speaker 6: of the group stage. It would be nice to make
49:07
Speaker 6: it out of the group stage and make it to
49:10
Speaker 6: the round of sixteen, which is in the realm of possibility,
49:12
Speaker 6: but it is also very possible they may not get
49:14
Speaker 6: out of the group stage.
49:15
Speaker 2: Is this the first time that because it's the round
49:19
Speaker 2: of thir like that, there's enough teams here that they're
49:21
Speaker 2: going to be it's the round of thirty two, there's
49:23
Speaker 2: an extra round.
49:24
Speaker 3: There is an extra round.
49:25
Speaker 6: So yes, that there is an extra round, and that's
49:27
Speaker 6: why you believe you it might be possible. Now, in
49:30
Speaker 6: the history of the World Cup, going back to nineteen thirty,
49:33
Speaker 6: only eight countries have ever won.
49:35
Speaker 3: The World was so surprising.
49:38
Speaker 6: So that is Brazil, Germany, Spain, Italy, France, Argentina and England.
49:45
Speaker 6: Those are your eight countries. Seven of those countries are
49:49
Speaker 6: in this Italy did not make it, so statistically speaking,
49:54
Speaker 6: those seven countries probably have the highest probability within that
49:59
Speaker 6: seven then probably not going to be England. Everyone else
50:06
Speaker 6: has a pretty good shot. Probably the France has a
50:11
Speaker 6: has a decent shot to repeat, but probably Spain has
50:16
Speaker 6: the strongest case because three of their players play for PSG,
50:21
Speaker 6: which just won the Champions League. So you have some
50:23
Speaker 6: of the Some of the best players obviously are obviously Argentina,
50:30
Speaker 6: who won the last World Cup gave Messi his his
50:33
Speaker 6: first World Cup championship. They they are favored, but not
50:38
Speaker 6: quite as much as some of the other squads. So
50:40
Speaker 6: what I thought would be fun, just because you got
50:43
Speaker 6: to have someone to follow and you don't want to
50:45
Speaker 6: live or die by the United States alone. We are
50:48
Speaker 6: going to draft five teams each and we'll do it
50:51
Speaker 6: in a snake draft of teams we're going to support.
50:56
Speaker 6: You don't have to feel free to give your rationale
50:58
Speaker 6: for while you're picking them, or to say I'm picking
51:01
Speaker 6: them just to pick them. But I'm gonna give you
51:03
Speaker 6: the option. Do you want to go first or do
51:05
Speaker 6: you want to go second and third to get two
51:08
Speaker 6: picks back to back. You can go first, Okay, So
51:14
Speaker 6: with the first pick, I'm going to go with who
51:19
Speaker 6: I am predicting is going to win it all, and
51:21
Speaker 6: that is going to be Espana.
51:24
Speaker 2: Okay, so you've got Spain, I will.
51:34
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll go and take Argentina.
51:36
Speaker 2: Okay, and my second team, if we're going to do
51:40
Speaker 2: a snake snake draft, will be I'm gonna take Argentina,
51:45
Speaker 2: and then I will I'm gonna take Germany.
51:48
Speaker 6: All right, good, I would say that is a good choice.
51:50
Speaker 6: I think Germany may maybe the dark horse to win
51:55
Speaker 6: this because they have a very talented squad. With my
52:02
Speaker 6: next two picks, I will go ahead and say, God,
52:10
Speaker 6: I make fun of them so much, I'm gonna I'm
52:12
Speaker 6: gonna pick I'm gonna pick Brazil, and then for my
52:18
Speaker 6: man Axel, I'm gonna go off off the the seven winners,
52:24
Speaker 6: and I'm gonna say Belgium.
52:27
Speaker 3: I will go with.
52:31
Speaker 2: I'm gonna going with recency bias here, I will take Mexico,
52:37
Speaker 2: and then, you know, just because I would love to
52:40
Speaker 2: see that island lose its mind, I'm gonna take England.
52:46
Speaker 6: They're gonna they're gonna finally bring it home.
52:49
Speaker 3: All right.
52:49
Speaker 6: So let's see, I have made one, two, three picks.
52:53
Speaker 6: So these are these are my last two? Yeah, okay,
52:56
Speaker 6: so these these are gonna be the ones close to
52:58
Speaker 6: my heart. Okay, I'm gonna pick the Netherlands the Dutch,
53:02
Speaker 6: because if you've seen the Orange mob. This is one
53:07
Speaker 6: of the most insane but one of the best traveling
53:12
Speaker 6: nations in the world. They turn out, they procure a
53:17
Speaker 6: double deck or bus wherever they go and have it
53:19
Speaker 6: painted orange and that's how they arrive at said stadium.
53:24
Speaker 6: And then finally, I'm gonna go with Norway because again,
53:27
Speaker 6: the Norwegians, if you've not seen their rowing cheer. They
53:33
Speaker 6: bring big drums and they've got an entire section that
53:38
Speaker 6: rows during the game and it is just it's all striking.
53:43
Speaker 6: And I do think, just like I said, Germany might
53:49
Speaker 6: be the dark horse of the favorite of the countries
53:52
Speaker 6: that have won previously. Norway has a shot because they
53:55
Speaker 6: has some talented guys, including Earling for Man City. So
53:59
Speaker 6: that's gonna be That's gonna be my five.
54:02
Speaker 2: And so I've got one left, You've got one left. Wait,
54:05
Speaker 2: did anybody nobody took France?
54:07
Speaker 6: Nobody has taken France. I would also say no one
54:09
Speaker 6: has taken Portugal.
54:10
Speaker 3: Portugal, I saw that might be this year.
54:13
Speaker 6: They've got some talented players and this is probably RealD
54:16
Speaker 6: Ronaldo's best last chance to win before before his career
54:21
Speaker 6: is over.
54:22
Speaker 3: I am going with France.
54:23
Speaker 6: You're going with friends, all right, So we're gonna see
54:26
Speaker 6: how these countries do. We'll come up with the system.
54:33
Speaker 2: And we will talk about it the next time that
54:35
Speaker 2: we are here. We have made it through another two
54:38
Speaker 2: hours of talking sports and a little bit of music,
54:41
Speaker 2: and I got to drink some Spurs fans tears because
54:44
