• 0:09
  Speaker 2: You love sandwiches. Huh, Let's go to uh eighty. It
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: was bo wow that Prime Time. Maybe I had a
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: crush on Betty Rubbell.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: I honestly, until after the segment ended and we went
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: to a commercial break, had no idea that Jonathan Coachman
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: was black.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: He caught them the game last night, although they won
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: the game.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: You're listening to Stug Gottson Company, Stu Godtson Company, presented
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: by Fandel and the FanDuel Sports Book is real good
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: eras Mikey a Taylor on zoom a very sad looking tailor.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: It is a very depressed looking tailor atired looking tailor.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: And that's because the Knicks have lost for the first
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: time in fourteen games.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: They did so last night and it's a series. Boys,
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: we have ourselves at NBA Finals.
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: How about that makes me and Taylor miserable, makes Mikey,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: I think, happy because he's been trying to jinz us
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: the entire time, and it makes is real Goodyeirez, who
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: yesterday I tried to claim that He's a nick fan
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: because his grandma's building in New York was featured in
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: a movie. He is just a static because he loves
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: the NBA and now he knows we have a series
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: that's gonna go likely six or seven games anyway.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: For ten grand Street. Ali Berry's in the scene. But uh, Taylor,
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: I'm curious. I have a lot of questions for you.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: And the first question is what level of hatred you
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: now have for Victor Wenbinyama because he tried to punk
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: your boy, Jalen Brunson. He pushed him in the back
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: of the neck and it was clearly a foul that
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: didn't get called. And he's been getting away with some
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: stuff throughout the playoffs that if you really studied him,
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: you'd be like, that guy looks a little dirty. I'm
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: not calling Victor Wenbinyama dirty. I'm just saying he's gotten
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: away with a few things your thoughts.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: Don't worry, I'll do it for you. Victor wen Banyama dirty.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: Victor wen Binyama is a scumbag, the one played by
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: Stefan scum bag.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Hold on a scumbag. That's a bit.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: He's a He's a scumbag.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Video evidence out there, all right, I mean listen, there
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: were some calls like Jalen Brunton sticking his foot under
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: a guy shooting a three point shot is not you know, I.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: Mean yeah, when Wemby did it though it wasn't called
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: that's a bag.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: The one played by Stefan Castle that they reviewed for
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: a flagrant where he just runs through Jalen Brunson's chest,
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: that's a fair play. That that's physical playoff basketball. Wemby,
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: on the other hand, he is he is like taking
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: like cheap shots.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: The one.
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: This is back to back games now because there was
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: the play last game in Game two with Jose Alvarado
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: where Jose Alvarado tries to just box out when Binyama
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: and he like swipes at at Alvarado. I hate Wehn Binyama.
• 2:48
  Speaker 4: Like people are like, oh, this guy's the face of
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: the league. This guy's French, this guy's this, this guy's that.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: I don't want to like Wen Binyama, Like go fuck
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: off we Binyama.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: There you go. That's all is he wanted? No, is
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: he listen to New York.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: It's a great job by Israel Goodie eras because what
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: he's trying to establish it was all.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: Funning games for the Knicks through two games, and you
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: know they.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Had all weekend a party like they won the NBA Finals,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: coming home for a big game three at Mads that
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: square guarded and who's who showed up last night courtside
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: for the Knicks so many celebrities they had to put
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: some in the third and fourth rows. They just didn't
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: have enough room. And what is he wanted, and it's
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: old school, is to pull the hatred out of Taylor
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: because Wemby is not a guy until last night that
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: you went to sleep at night and said, you know what,
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: he's a scumbag.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: I hate that guy. But now he is Wemby And
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: is he have drawn that out of Taylor? A Nick fan?
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: And that's exactly what is he wanted?
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Yes, I hated Michael Jordan, even while being impressed, but
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I hated him because he was going to end my
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: team season just about every year?
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Is he?
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: The popular thing today would be to blame the refs,
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: and that's exactly what I'm gonna do because they.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Were absolutely the rookie move.
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: This is the third straight game where it's been a
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: pretty pro Spurs whistle and some of them yesterday, like
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: that game was so choppy and it had no flow
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: to it, where I don't have a problem if the
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: refs aren't calling it on both sides. You just want
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: consistency from your referees.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: To be fair.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: I do believe that, Yeah, the referees had a problem
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: in this series. It's not been a very evenly called series.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: It's not there's been a lot of fouls that you're
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: looking at it's like, okay. And then it's been this
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: phenomenon over the last couple of years, in particular in
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: the NBA playoffs where I don't know if you remember,
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I think it was two years ago, it might have
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: even been three, where the players were complaining that the
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: fouls are too soft, the game was too soft, and
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden, the rest swallowed their whistles for
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: an entire playoffs, and it's like, okay, well, you can't
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: just go one extreme to the other. What was happening
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: in game two, I believe, is when you heard the
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: refs say, you heard thennouncer say, oh, they're really letting
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: him play, and then that's sort of carried over into
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: game three. That was that one play where Stefan Castle.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Had a layup.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: He got fouled twice on the way to the rim,
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: once by Josh Harten, once by uh whoever was vertical
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: or thought he was vertical. I think it was og
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: and he just got to the floor and he was like,
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: how to the referees, how was that not a foul?
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: And I said at that moment, in my head, I
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: was like, they're gonna this game's gonna get away from them,
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Like Stefan's gonna want to react and gonna want to,
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: you know, take somebody else out because he's not getting
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: any calls even though he's such an aggressor.
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: And that's kind of what started happening.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: It's like a lot of physical play and not enough
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: whistles to match it. And I think that's probably going
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: to be as much as Taylor said, you know, it's
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: a popular thing and everybody, I don't care if you
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: get criticized for it. The officiating has been an issue
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: in this series. I'm not saying one team or the
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: other necessarily his favorite is getting favored.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: Even though it kind of looks like it is.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: I think it kind of is. I mean, isn't what
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: was it?
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Twenty four to eight might have by coincidence, Yes, they
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: might be getting the who were.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Getting all the calls. They're up two games to one
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: and they're at home, I mean, so, I.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Mean it should be up four games to one.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: That being said, this the beginning of this game, Taylor
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: and Stu was exactly what you were afraid of.
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: It was them going to the rim.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: It was them having Ustefan Castle be hot and he's
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: not even you know, a guy you rely on every
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: every single night to get you the points.
• 6:21
  Speaker 5: And so they started off great and then Nicks.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Answered and I said to myself at some point there, Stu,
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: maybe this Knicks team is just a juggernaut, like it
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: doesn't matter what the Spurs do. And then you know,
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: maybe some of the whistles started going this first way.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: So Izzy, it was interesting right in the second half,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: and Mike Brown addressed it in the postgame press conference,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: and you know, hopefully we'll help moving forward here in
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: game four. That's that's kind of the move for coaches
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: after they feel like they weren't on the better end
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: of the calls for most of the night.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: So Mike Brown did what he had to do.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: But is he to your point, You're right, Wemby in
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: that first quarter, that's exactly what you were talking about.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: The things that make him special.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: It's not being able to shoot the three now naturally
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: like Steph Gurry from the logo. It's being able to
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: get in the paint like that, being taller than everyone
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: else and still being nimble enough and athletic enough to
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: make moves, drive to the paint on his own or
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: just get there via lobb or via pass. And he
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: was amazing in the first quarter, in the first half
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: last night, and really the entire game. But with all
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: that being said, and I couldn't believe it. The Knicks
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: were up seven or eight at halftime, and I'm like, man,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: that was Wenby's best shot.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: We're still up here. We're looking good. Yeah.
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: The worst thing that happened to the Knicks is he
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: was the second quarter ending because they had all the
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: momentum halftime until rocking it. Let the Spurs go in
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: and reset and kind of refocus where their attention was
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: going to be in the second half. Because I thought,
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: even though the Knicks were only up seven at half,
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: I thought going into halftime that it had to be
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: too demoralizing for the Spurs to know that they've just
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: played probably their best you know whatever it was before
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: that Knicks run their their best stretch this series, and
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: to be down seven. And I think that's kind of
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: been a trend for this Knicks team this playoffs, where
• 8:10
  Speaker 4: even when the Spurs are playing their best basketball, you
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: look up at the scoreboard and you're like, oh, the
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: Knicks are only down like six, like one little run
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: by New York, and they're right back in this game.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: They just didn't get that in the fourth quarter exactly.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: That fourth quarter just started with a tiny Spurs running
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden, that seven point difference just felt insurmountable.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: And they literally never never got again, and I never
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: got tied.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: It up again.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: And so it was, you know, shocking a little bit
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: to see the fourth quarter and the Knicks really.
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: Struggled to score.
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: I hate to say I told you so, but the
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Michale Bridges hot streak was gonna end at some point,
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: and he, you know, barely shot the ball. I think
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: he's gotten to the point, Taylor, tell me if you
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: think I'm wrong here where because of his efficiency he
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: was only taking great shots and now in this game,
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: he again only took five shots, missed four, and it
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: was like, I'm good.
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: I don't get to be any more aggressive.
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: I feel like as a whole, the Knicks didn't really
• 9:06
  Speaker 4: create a lot of high quality shot attempts like og
• 9:10
  Speaker 4: An Andobi was playing out of his mind, and a
• 9:12
  Speaker 4: lot of the shots that Ogi was taking were contested
• 9:15
  Speaker 4: shots where maybe a traditional basketball mine is like that's
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: not the best shot. But when Og had it going,
• 9:22
  Speaker 4: it's like, just just keep letting your offense go through Og.
• 9:26
  Speaker 4: All that being said, if you told me after Game
• 9:29
  Speaker 4: three the Knicks would be up to one, I would
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: take it every time.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the series that keeps starting. I mean I
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: was gonna say, what do you call a series that
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: won't stop starting?
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: It's now turned into like it has a chance to
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: be an all time series. Here, Taylor would prefer we
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: be up three to zero and a celebration be going on,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: trying to close it out ones that night at the Garden.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: We're not. We're going back to San Antonio. Sorry. Yeah.
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: Unfortunately, unfortunately San Antonio could write us a thank you
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: letter for their local economy for the next two months,
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: with how many New Yorkers are going to be in
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: Falty Game four as far as I'm concerned, Game four is.
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: For the series excel.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: Huh, Well, they're going to have the life back, right,
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: the garden's not going to be blocked off because there's
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: not going to be the president at this game.
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: It's going to feel like a more natural game. It
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: is interesting though.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: It feels like you blew the ogn Andob josh Hart
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: game right because josh Hart had four threes in that game,
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: and that's you know, that happens once every few games.
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: But you can't rely on that.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: Yes to get the Michale Bridges and Karl Anthony Towns
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: game though, right.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: You didn't get enough of Cat and that to me
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: was a big difference. That guy was your you know,
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: he was the finals MVP going in. You got another
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: thirty piece from Jalen, but it wasn't very efficient. He
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: had the five turnovers. I think if you get you
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: know what you got close to in the first two
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: games from Karl Anthony Towns, I think they win this game.
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: Is could you could talk about how like inefficient the
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: Knicks were shooting, You could talk about the refs. For me,
• 10:57
  Speaker 4: the game comes down to the Knicks not really playing
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: up to their standard. Where the Spurs scored twenty one
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: points off thirteen Knick turnovers, the Knicks scored seven points
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: off eight Spurs turnovers. That really feels like where the
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: game was won and lost.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: Well.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: Definitely between games one and three, the Spurs have sort
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: of settled down on the turnovers and that's huge for them. Obviously,
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: eight turnovers in a finals road game, that's incredible.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: What was Landry Shamit thinking when he drove to the
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: basket of Victor weban Yama, like he thought that was
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: gonna end well, that was such a good defensive possession right.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Where the Knicks are just like, oh, let me close
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: this drive, let me close out this, let me drive
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: this close out, let me drive this close out. It's
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: like one of these has to be open. And sham
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: It's like, oh, nope, that that.
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: Was not the wood. That was not the wood.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: Is he wasn't the big difference.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: I guess the way San Antonio defended, they were way
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: more aggressive and then they had Wemby in the paint
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: in the middle for most of the night. But they
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: were just aggressive with those four guards and they were
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: so aggressive. Just Karl Anthony Towns wasn't really freed up.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: They were playing Brunson so far out Castle was. He's
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: such an aggressive defender, he's such a good player, and
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: he was great last night. But that defense, for me,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: was the big difference San Antonio's defense last night. And
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: getting Wemby back in the middle as opposed to being
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: out in the corner for me was the big difference
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: because when he's there, he just impassed your thoughts, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: And it looked like in you know, the games in
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: San Antonio, especially in game two, they were still figuring out,
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: like you're saying, where best to position Wemby. There was
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: a couple of situations where they he got isoed on
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: Jalen Brunson because they ended up switching and as much
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: as he's got that size of event and that's not
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: a great matchup because he gives them too much space
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: and Jalen's just too smart with that. But yeah, they
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: did figure out some stuff. Let's see, Okay, he had
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: three blocks last night, so it feels like he's had
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: more of an packed in that game and and sort
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: of altering things. But again, the Knick shot forty five
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: percent from the floor, wasn't even their worst shooting performance
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: for the series.
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: And yeah, if you get.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: A little bit more aggressive Mikhale Bridges, and if you
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: get anything out of Landry Shammitt, because you knew that
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: playing Landry Shammitt twenty five minutes a game, you were
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: gonna get one or two stinkers.
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: Yes, Now, I don't think it mattered because it looked
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: like Victor Wenbinyama was streaking to the basket and would
• 13:24
  Speaker 4: have got any put back. But for as bad as
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: Darren Fox was yesterday, I am shocked that he made
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: that pull up to kind of put the dagger in
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: the Knicks to go up five. Where if he misses
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: that and some for some reason, the ball kicks one
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: way and the Knicks get the ball and call all
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: time out, Nicks have a chance to shoot a three
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: and tie the game.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Yeaheah.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: They then spurs got I mean, this is silly to say,
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: right because they'd be down three, but so obviously they'd
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: be in danger.
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: But I don't know if Daron Fox is just.
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: Like getting lucky, like you said, because he's been having
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: these terrible shooting performance his last night. Dylan Harper was
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: not as good You know, five of eighteen from the field,
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: one of eight from three, so not somebody that you
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: could say, hey, he should replace Darren Fox. But going
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: into this game, the numbers with Victor Winbinyama and Dylan
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: Harper on.
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: The floor together were fantastic.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: They were outscoring the Knicks by twenty some points, and
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: Darren Fox is just leaving a lot to be desired,
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: especially early in the game. So I don't know if like,
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: it's probably not something to think about now, but Dylan
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: Harper starting over Darren Fox eventually has to happen, right,
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: Either that or they're starting next to each other and
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: making a smaller backcourt. But it just feels like Dylan
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: Harper has more of a handle of the game at
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: times than Darren Fox.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: Taylor, we didn't get a good game from Shamitt, but
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: the game we wasted last night, we'll never get this
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: game again, was the Jordan Clarkson game.
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: I mean, well, they hadn't even been playing in the
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: first two games.
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: God was a couple of minutes away from getting a statue.
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: I mean Jesus when the Knicks signed Jordan. Jordan Clarkson
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: has always been on my like, you know, if you
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: guys probably don't know this because it's this kind of deranged.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: But I just keep a list of running guys that
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: I would like my teams to sign. Jordan Clarkson is
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: always near the top of that list.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: Second, where is this at all times? Twenty years ago?
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: Where is this list at all times?
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: Is it on your phone?
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Is it like one of those Cleveland Browns quarterbacks lists
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: that you just keep adding to the bottom of It's.
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: A running list on my notesap and I don't speak
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: any of the names that are on the list because
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: I don't want to jinx them coming to the Knicks.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: But right now I'll tell you I've got two of
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: them on my team, Jose Alvarado Wow and Jordan Clarkson.
• 15:35
  Speaker 5: Like guys with braids.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I have I have one of those lists too,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, Derrick Henry, I have one of those lists.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: I got a list too, terrible.
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: Yet, of course.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: I want to see this derange list. I want to
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: see that list.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: And I still need to see the list of stugats
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: that in case he dies overnight, these are the people
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: who might be responsible.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: I know the updated top ten.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: It's a list I leave for the police in the
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: event that I go missing and people want to know
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: where I am, I give them clues.
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: To who might who may have done it.
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: So so I treat this list almost like a birthday wish,
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: where if I say it, it won't come true. The
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: only name I'll share on the list because I don't
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: think it's realistic that the Knicks could get this guy.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: And it can't be like it can't be the star
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: star players because obviously you take any of those star players,
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: right Jad McDaniels, Is he, oh.
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: Wow, wow you got an up and coming star.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: Yes, you kind of turned into a store this postseason.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that you just want to take all the
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: Minnesota Timberwells good players.
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: And then another classic crazed fan instance here is he
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: after your team loses, you have to propose some rules
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: changes that you didn't see that went your way. I
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: have two rule changes that I think the NBA needs
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: to enact after Game three. The challenge rule. It's crazy
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: that you get one challenge. If you get it right,
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: you get a second. Why do you not get a
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: third if the second is right.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: It's the stupidest thing in the world. The referees can
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: only be wrong twice. Per team, which is absolutely insane.
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: I magin the.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: Feeling when they're the refs must feel so good when
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: those challenges are over and done with, it's like, finally nobody.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Can question me.
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: Whistle whistle. It's gotta be crazy, but yees.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: The fact that they can't be corrected again is so stupid.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: It's I love how much detail the referee was given
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: last night, Like he's naming names.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: You know, Wemby pulled on his elbow and so he
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: was like, do him play by play?
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: Also, how about call him by his name. It's not Wenby, it's.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, I like the nicknames all redoing right,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: it feels like favoritism.
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: You're calling him by his nickname.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: No, they're like Carl.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: He's like Carl grabbed Webb's arm under his arm He's
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: like giving you play by play as to why he
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: called it the way he called it and how we
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: saw it After reviewing it, I thought it was great.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: I want him to call him the alien grabbed the
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: alien's army ummy.
• 18:14
  Speaker 4: The second rule is he that I want changed the
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: Mitch Johnson sending somebody to the scores table because he
• 18:25
  Speaker 4: just there. They have no intention some time Yeah, they
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: never have any intention to sub there. It's just put
• 18:31
  Speaker 4: a guy there by some time so the analytics guys
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: can look at their iPads and tell you if you
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: should challenge or not telling those guys really neat, Yes, exactly.
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: Dylan Harper walks onto the court the Knicks. The refs
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: let the Knicks inbound the ball. There's six men on
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: the court. Now. I don't think it should have been
• 18:50
  Speaker 4: a technical foul because I don't think it was the
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: Spurs fault. I think it was just a miscommunication between
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: the refs. But but because of Mitch j installing tactic,
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: it just causes so much confusion.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's absolutely ridiculous that they allow it. It's a
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: delay a game penalty. It should be every time. They'll
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: probably fix that this offseason, but yeah, it's I think
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: the whole challenge system is odd because.
• 19:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, the game happens fast.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: You inbound the ball, you get the ball to the
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: ref and go, and if you have to stall the
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: game just to see that, I hate that idea. And
• 19:23
  Speaker 3: this is where you know, I feel like maybe replay
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: has gone too far in the game that because it
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: plays so fast that you just can't really slow it
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: down for replay, but that part they're probably just going
• 19:32
  Speaker 3: to take that out. It's like, hey, if you bring
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: up a sub, that sub has to go into the game.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: There's no way to just pull them back, or they
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: just call it delay a game.
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: I think it's bothersome when it impacts your team, but
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: when it helps your team, you don't hear a word
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: about it.
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: Last night, I mean Wemby.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Did Wenby have a three overturn because a defender was
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: pushed into him and then the Knicks came down.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: So it was a five point swing in that spot.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: I'm certain you like the refs takeing their time and
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: doing it and doing all the replay and interrupting the
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: game at that point.
• 19:57
  Speaker 5: Right, No, because they got the Now, they got that
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: one wrong. I thought the shot should have counted because
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: the foul was.
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: Occurring as Victor women Yama was going up for the shot.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: He did not get that shot off as a result
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: of the offensive foul, nor did the offensive ful happen first.
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: So to me, three points should have been good.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: But I hear what you're saying to So this is
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: how these NBA series work. Where Taylor or both of
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: us were mikey A, we're celebrating, like, you know, we're
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: about to win an NBA title, and now you can
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: see the other side is he I couldn't see it
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: until last night, until after the game.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: And the other side is, oh, we.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Could also lose this NBA Finals because this Burs team
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: is really good.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: And it's how the series works.
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: Yes, if you told Taylor before the series, after three
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: games you're up to one with a home game at
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: the Mecca, of course you.
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Would take it.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: But how you get up to one with a home
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: game at the Mecca is also very important. And so
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be a very nervous night for Nick fans
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: and San Antonio fans coming up here on Wednesday night.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: You know who doesn't seem nervous the guy who's at
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: Central Park drawing before the game, Victor Miama, Like, I
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: don't know what you guys thought about that, but I'm
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: just like, well, I mean, he no matter what he
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: does in public, he's not gonna be able to hide.
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: Everybody's gonna see him. And it's like if.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: Dude's just trying to kill time, It's like you were
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: talking yesterday, Stude, the clock was going way too slow,
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: and for Victor, he's like, yeah, I'm just gonna go
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: outside and draw.
• 21:19
  Speaker 5: When I saw that, I was like, yeah, this person
• 21:20
  Speaker 5: winning this game.
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: I'm an unnecessary correction Grammercy Park.
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: So it's completely unnecessary. I don't even know where grammar
• 21:28
  Speaker 5: Suy Park is.
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: But how do you feel about the drawing, Like is
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: that is that a regular thing for him? Did he
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: do it like just you know, for aesthetics, Like, Hey,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: look how relaxed I am. I'm out in the park.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: I'm drawing before the biggest game in the history of
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: the NBA. I mean, get over yourself. Serious fucking French.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: He's probably never drawn before. It's serious as first time. Hey,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: someone get me a pan of paper and some pencils
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: and let me go draw so I could look like
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: a calm before the game.
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: Enough, you can draw my middle finger Wenby.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: I
