1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:08.679
You're listening to the downbeat on ninety
the Freak. Good morning, good morning,

2
00:00:08.759 --> 00:00:14.000
good morning. This is your friendly
downbeat on ninety seven to one the

3
00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:21.480
Freak. We are heard week days
from six am sharp until ten AM's not

4
00:00:21.519 --> 00:00:26.640
so sharp. You got Mike,
Siroy, You've got me the dinger JJ

5
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:31.559
Jackson on the board and uh our
sweet Cavio is traveling abroad, making his

6
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:35.799
first ever trip to Europe, landing
in Barcelona here and I think about an

7
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:39.280
hour and a half, two hours, two hours and six minutes, he's

8
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:44.479
still over water. I think we'll
start the bubbly is on ice. Let's

9
00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:48.399
not even touch it until he gets
over lamp. Should be even more scared

10
00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:51.880
of the water. Should we start
putting up the plastic in the in the

11
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:55.439
clubhouse yet? Yeah? Maybe wait
on that. Well I have they were

12
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:58.920
all tape right here in the plastic. So we'll cover all these TVs and

13
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:02.200
sign up here in a few But
once he gets over land, we're going

14
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:07.760
to rejoice. I don't know Barcelona
was far northeast Spain. I think I

15
00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:11.959
thought I thought it was more central, maybe where Madrid is. So he

16
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:14.359
still asked to get over some land
at the end, but yeah, he's

17
00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:18.079
two hours. They had a nearly
three and a half hour delay and out

18
00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:21.760
of DFW they emptied the plane and
then put them back on. Did we

19
00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:26.920
ever figure out why was some updating
some software? They said it was some

20
00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:30.680
light it was malfunctioning. But why
do they tell us? I don't think

21
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:33.920
they're ever going to tell you the
truth. I don't know. They had

22
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:37.439
a pilot, he said there was
a pilot on the plane as a passenger,

23
00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:42.840
coughing bullfs into his hand. M
hm, what was the what do

24
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:46.159
they call him? Dead? Dead
head? Dead heads? Yeah, and

25
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:49.760
the pilot was saying that that's probably
all a lie. Who knows why they're

26
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:55.799
creating this this delay seven point thirty
you will have all of the news that

27
00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:59.040
you need to hear with the scuttle
But Mikey's going to handle that. And

28
00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:02.239
then we got some big movie reviews. Now, Civil War was the big

29
00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:07.000
blockbuster over the weekend. I know, JJ seen that. I took that

30
00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:09.520
in a couple of nights ago.
I have a lot to say about that.

31
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:16.719
And I also watched Academy Award nominated
and winning. He won several awards

32
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:23.639
at the OSCARS Zone of Interest.
So yeah, two very incredible, uplifting

33
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:29.560
films to get your Wednesday morning Morning
started proper with civil War and Zone of

34
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:31.520
Interest. We got JJ though she's
watched all the fun stuff. Yeah,

35
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:38.240
monkey Man and the Ministry of Ungentlemanly
Warfare. Huh hit the applause, say

36
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:42.960
you five times? So yeah,
we'll do a little lights camera holes here

37
00:02:42.960 --> 00:02:46.400
in a minute. And of course
we got the Dingu's Morning News at eight

38
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:49.319
thirty. What else we got?
Oh, I got some fun stuff in

39
00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:54.719
Dingu's Morning News. Kevin Gray of
the MAVs podcast that we host right here

40
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:59.319
on ninety seven won the Freak.
He does pregame post game. He's awesome.

41
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:01.199
He's gonna come in and then we're
going to discuss some and take a

42
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:06.240
deep dive into the MAVs as they
are gearing up start advancing their way through

43
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:08.680
the NBA bracket. Yeah, I
believe you can be a part of Uh

44
00:03:09.159 --> 00:03:15.719
Mikey's got a April only one hundred
bucks to join. I have to vendomode

45
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:22.000
all back. But uh yeah,
speaking of sports, it's time because it's

46
00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:37.919
seven oh nine right here on the
Freak and now sports at seven how many

47
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:42.439
gins you think Heavyer got in and
that three hour delay. I mean,

48
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:45.159
how many could he get in if
he's stuck on the actual plane. No,

49
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:47.120
then they let him off, uh
huh, and he went and had

50
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:53.039
a couple. He just all worked
up about that flight starts pumping some aviation

51
00:03:53.199 --> 00:04:00.159
into him. It only makes sense
that he would drink ab eight. Yeah,

52
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:02.919
so I tease this, this just
hit this morning. I'm gonna read

53
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:08.719
this pretty much verbad him because we
don't have much more than the article that

54
00:04:08.879 --> 00:04:14.240
just popped. But if our friend, uh, what's his name, John

55
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:17.560
Sigoty, he just emailed us.
He said, if you have any sports

56
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:20.600
lawyer to call in for anything.
If you're listening right now, John,

57
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:25.360
here's your first test. You can
call in and don't try it idiots,

58
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:31.680
Because I'm an expert. It's right, I know all about loans in sports.

59
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:35.720
Ajay's an expert call vetter. But
if you are John Sigody and you

60
00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:40.560
got a clarity on what I'm about
to read, you feel free to call

61
00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:45.120
in. It's all good. Headline
sexual assault lawsuit against Dallas Cowboys QB Dak

62
00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:51.360
Prescott dropped so it says Dak Prescott
no longer facing a sexual assault lawsuit.

63
00:04:51.399 --> 00:04:56.480
A judge signed off on dropping a
lawsuit from Prescott's accuser on April sixteenth,

64
00:04:56.480 --> 00:05:00.959
so just yesterday apparently. Court documents
obtained by CBS News Texas show the case

65
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:04.759
has been dismissed without prejudice, meaning
the current case against Prescott has ended,

66
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:09.560
but allows for the case to be
refiled in the future. And this,

67
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:13.240
of course, is the woman who
followed lawsuit against Prescott for assaulting her in

68
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:15.639
a strip club parking lot in twenty
seventeen. That was after a DACKX rookie

69
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:20.040
season. She claimed Prescott invited her
out with two members of his entourage and

70
00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:25.079
other women to an establishment in Plano. Later, getting into a black suv

71
00:05:25.240 --> 00:05:28.720
or, Prescott allegedly exposed himself and
used physical force and sexually assaulted her.

72
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:32.879
He has denied all allegations him and
his lawyers called him patently false, heinous,

73
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:38.480
and with no bias in reality,
and Prescott then countersued and denied her

74
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:42.600
allegations, accusing her of trying to
extort him for one hundred million dollars,

75
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:47.759
which is while in that countersuit lawsuit
Prescott seeking one million from his accuser and

76
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:57.000
the ending of this it probably required
three signatures one signing the court document saying

77
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:00.560
that yes, we have no interest
in pursuing us any further. The second

78
00:06:00.879 --> 00:06:05.519
was the signing of the non disclosure
agreement, and the third was signing the

79
00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:11.879
endorsement line on the back of the
check that she probably received. Probably that's

80
00:06:12.240 --> 00:06:16.800
probably yes, maybe, but possibly
the countersuit has not been dismissed. I

81
00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:21.240
guess, you know, the one
million dollars that Dak is seeking from the

82
00:06:21.279 --> 00:06:27.199
accuser not yet right, So I
it was only you can only dismiss so

83
00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:30.639
many lawsuits in a day. Any
time I can time my name in one

84
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:34.399
day is limited. I wonder if, if, if, and when the

85
00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:40.279
countersuit has dropped that it we will
will even know about it. I mean,

86
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:46.800
certainly that becomes public information. Yeah, But I just think if the

87
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:56.240
accusation was untrue, this is that
countersuit what encourages her to stop her suit,

88
00:06:56.519 --> 00:06:59.199
you know, like if her lawyers
are like, look, if you

89
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:02.399
lose this, then we're going on
court and you might have to be responsible

90
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:06.639
for a million dollars to Dak Prescott, And if she knows that it's not

91
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:10.279
true, then she's like, all
right, well let's drop it all.

92
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:15.720
Or if it is true, then
you're absolutely right that you could take a

93
00:07:15.920 --> 00:07:20.360
X amount of dollars, maybe a
million dollar, whatever it is from Team

94
00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:25.199
Dak. It goes away, the
countershit goes away, You get a million

95
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:28.360
bucks in your pocket, and just
you go away. And I don't want

96
00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:31.079
to be cynical about this, but
the only thing that we have to base

97
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:34.199
this on is the way that that
organization has done business in the past.

98
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:40.720
And like it or not, as
cool and likable of a dude as Dak

99
00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:46.560
is, he's still connected very closely
and deeply with Jerry Jones and that's kind

100
00:07:46.560 --> 00:07:50.720
of his mo that's his the way
he does business. Yeah, and we've

101
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:56.720
seen it time and time and time
ago. So it's not unreasonable to speculate

102
00:07:57.000 --> 00:08:00.879
that that could be the way that
this went down. And if it is

103
00:08:00.920 --> 00:08:01.959
the way this went down, then
I would Yeah, you're right, I

104
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:07.519
would expect the countersuit to be dropped
pretty quickly. Now if Dak has really

105
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:13.319
asked herd about this and it look
if were you and these allegations were made

106
00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:18.160
publicly, a suit was filed,
you counter suit, she drops it.

107
00:08:18.279 --> 00:08:22.600
Don't you keep the counter suit going? Yeah, to say no, you're

108
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:26.439
not getting away with making these statements
and accusing me of this it never happened.

109
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:30.680
You follow through on that to the
end, right, Yes, because

110
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:33.960
you want your name to be cleared
above all. Uh, yes, but

111
00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:37.519
I think that you want this all
to go away is your top priority.

112
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:41.600
I think, But again, it
just goes back to what actually happened,

113
00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:48.840
you know, I mean they both
or Dak admits to a consensual interaction of

114
00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:54.200
sorts with her, which is probably
back to the suv and intertwine your fingers

115
00:08:54.240 --> 00:09:00.320
behind your head and lean back,
you know, and to him was a

116
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:03.960
very consensual thing. And then five
six years later, she decides to start

117
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:09.679
making these what are in your mind, these outrageous and incorrect claims. But

118
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:13.559
assuming that that happened, well,
they, like you said, they both

119
00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:18.919
admitted to something happened. And the
second that that encounter started, for lack

120
00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:22.960
of better term, that's when you
start painting the entire scene with fifty shades

121
00:09:24.000 --> 00:09:26.120
of great. Yeah, exactly,
because no one really knows. Being that

122
00:09:26.120 --> 00:09:30.120
that's true, I think team Dak
wants this all to go away, and

123
00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:33.559
they wouldn't hang in for this million
dollar counter suit. But now, if

124
00:09:33.759 --> 00:09:37.840
if it was completely consensual, you're
right, maybe Dak is like, you

125
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:41.559
know what, No, And just
like Dak would sign a contract that helps

126
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:43.919
all the other future quarterbacks that are
going to sign contracts behind him, you

127
00:09:43.960 --> 00:09:48.159
have to hold the line and get
as much as you can. It might

128
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:50.039
make sense for him to say,
no, you're not gonna just try to

129
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:56.320
extort a multi millionaire quarterback with a
lie that smears my name. So I

130
00:09:56.360 --> 00:10:00.600
am going to fight this. I'm
gonna I want them million dollars. I

131
00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:05.480
would think that he would follow through
with this if the if he hadn't already

132
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:09.200
agreed that there was some type of
encounter. Had he just met this person

133
00:10:09.240 --> 00:10:13.159
and shaken her hand at a hotel
lobby and that was the only time on

134
00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:18.600
the only contact that they had,
then yes, But the fact that something

135
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:20.799
did happen, like I said,
an incredibly gray area of what goes on

136
00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:26.399
from that point forward. Then yes, he will drop his countersuit, I

137
00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:30.639
believe, and and this will all
go away, and then we're on our

138
00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:33.679
way to the super Bowl. Super
Bowl time. Well, and as I

139
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:37.080
read, dismissed without prejudice, meaning
the current case has ended, but allows

140
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:41.159
for the case to be refiled in
the future. So yes, I guess

141
00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:45.720
if he continued the countersuit for the
million dollars and they did hook up,

142
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:48.879
and then you look at all those
painted shades of gray. The possibility of

143
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:54.480
reopening the case and saying no,
I'm back in you know it was all

144
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:58.000
against my will is back on the
table. So I would imagine this is

145
00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:01.519
probably about the last hear of it, unless we hear a blurb about Dak

146
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:07.519
has dropped his countersuit and that doesn't
look bad to him, right If he

147
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:11.879
tomorrow or today drops his countersuit,
that's a yes, no admission. This

148
00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:15.320
is just a thing that has now
disappeared. Yeah, they played a game

149
00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:18.639
of chicken and she lost. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well anyway,

150
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:22.120
as of this morning, the headline
once again Dak Prescott not facing a sexual

151
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:26.799
assault lawsuit anymore. The judge signed
off yesterday and dropping the lawsuit, but

152
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:28.600
the potential, I guess for it
to be refalled in the future is still

153
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:33.399
up there. We will track this
and we will tell you what's going on.

154
00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:35.039
You heard it here first. You
heard it right here on ninety seven

155
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:41.759
one. The freak taking in and
did you take in any NBA? Last

156
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:46.759
night, I had a recording session
with skin but I was monitoring closely on

157
00:11:46.799 --> 00:11:50.840
my phone the score and when it
got into the fourth quarter, while I'm

158
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:54.960
watching the Great Jorda Ash Grant cut
a wicked ass synthesizer part at this studio,

159
00:11:56.080 --> 00:12:00.840
I did pop up YouTube TV and
watch the final the final quarter.

160
00:12:01.039 --> 00:12:03.840
Why was I not invited or consulted? This wasn't our band, this was

161
00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.480
a different band. I don't like
how many I know. I know,

162
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:09.120
I know it's the side projects that
are going to kill us. I need

163
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:13.000
your project, I know, I
know I'm working on some stuff. Is

164
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:16.000
using your talent to support me into
the next two decades from our YouTube channel

165
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:20.840
that we haven't created yet, come
a YouTube channel. I don't like that.

166
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:24.799
I know. I don't like to
see my little lady with another man,

167
00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:28.440
Danny, I know, but you
know what my head, you need

168
00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:31.360
to put a ring on it,
girl. I did watch, watched a

169
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:35.720
little bit at the of the the
quite a bit of the fourth quarter and

170
00:12:35.159 --> 00:12:39.519
the early game Lakers peal. Yeah, man, I could not hang.

171
00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:45.720
I tried, tried for about a
quarter and a half of of Sacramento Golden

172
00:12:45.720 --> 00:12:48.279
State, but it kind of you
kind of had a good idea where the

173
00:12:48.320 --> 00:12:50.399
wind was blowing in that one early
on, and I was not surprised to

174
00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:54.559
find out that that Sacramento took that
one. But that first game was damn

175
00:12:56.519 --> 00:12:58.759
down to the wire. And how
great would it have been to eliminate the

176
00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:05.279
Akers and Golden State, two kind
of mainstays in the NBA tournament conversations over

177
00:13:05.320 --> 00:13:09.240
the last you know, however many
years it's to have them eliminated, but

178
00:13:09.480 --> 00:13:13.159
LA plays on. It's so like
weird and dangerous. Because we're gonna talk

179
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:18.759
to Kevin Gray nine o'clock as I'm
getting real worked up about the possibilities for

180
00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:22.039
the Mavericks. But I don't know
if we're dumb old people that just cling

181
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:26.200
to oh my god, Lebron oh, Steph Curry, you know, the

182
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:30.960
Lakers, you know, and then
and then we're like Pelicans fine Thunder,

183
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:33.200
Oh my god, yes it's thunder
good. Yeah, I think there's a

184
00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:37.519
lot of that, like they see
the league is slowly changing always and you

185
00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:43.320
know, the thunder are the number
one seed for a reason. But yes,

186
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:45.879
Anie, I'm sure I'm with you. I'm cheering against the Lakers.

187
00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:48.600
Please get the Lakers either eliminated or
pushed back into that next game and the

188
00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:52.320
play in tournament, but the Lakers
end up winning. They were up pretty

189
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:56.600
big and the Pals kept coming back, and dude, this was the Zion

190
00:13:56.679 --> 00:14:01.519
Williamson show in his first ever playoff
game, I'm pretty sure, which is

191
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:03.519
kind of odd. And that dude
has been kind of aligned for being a

192
00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:09.159
one to one and you know,
weight issues and like reliability issues, and

193
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:13.399
then this dude was having his day. He was unstoppable in the paint and

194
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:18.200
kind of single handedly willing these dudes
back into it against the Lakers. And

195
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:22.600
then he shoots a very kind of
innocuous, little middle of the lane jumper

196
00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:28.879
and lands kind of weird and pulls
his jersey up over his face and goes

197
00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:31.039
to the bench and then goes to
the locker room. And that's only with

198
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:35.000
like four or five minutes left in
the game, and I think it was

199
00:14:35.039 --> 00:14:37.799
either tied or very close, like
they were war Daddy, He's getting back

200
00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:43.600
into this thing and had momentum,
and then it's one of those like he's

201
00:14:43.600 --> 00:14:48.240
had so many tiny micro fractures,
like I don't know what he's exactly dealt

202
00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:52.000
with, feet, knees, and
it's almost like he knew something weird happened.

203
00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:54.200
That's going to keep him out for
a little bit, but he certainly

204
00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:56.600
couldn't return of the game. He
leaves the floor and the Lakers, essentially,

205
00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:00.799
you know, Seese control of the
game, get the win on the

206
00:15:00.879 --> 00:15:07.519
road in New Orleans to punch their
ticket into the playoffs, and that pushes

207
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:11.240
the Pelicans into the second round,
which is against the Kings now, but

208
00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:16.799
it was against the winner of the
King's Warrior. Okay, did all right?

209
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:22.639
Did you see the shack comments or
no? Okay, I saw this

210
00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:30.600
earlier and I didn't read it,
but apparently on NBA on TNT that the

211
00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:35.759
halftime show, Shaq had some comments. So he said, he lefty.

212
00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:39.960
He scored forty points. That's incredible, left early, described his left legs

213
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:43.799
soreness. While on inside the NBA, Ernie revealed that Williamson exited the game

214
00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:48.720
early with legs horness. Upon learning
the news, Shaq was left shocked by

215
00:15:48.759 --> 00:15:52.200
the fact that Zion was unable to
finish down the stretch, implying that the

216
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:56.039
superstar should have dealt with and returned
to action. Rubbed some icy hot on

217
00:15:56.080 --> 00:16:00.960
that thing, Chico, Shaq said, shutting up the company. He's been

218
00:16:00.960 --> 00:16:04.000
partnered with for only twenty years.
Barkley chimed in saying, I'm not sure

219
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:07.639
I would even come out of the
game. Well, they don't know what

220
00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:11.080
the hell he has. They don't, I mean hell, and for all

221
00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:12.440
we know, it could be broken. But again, you talk about us

222
00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:18.240
being old dude, saying, man, the Lakers, the Warriors were afraid

223
00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:21.799
of him just because of the name
and the uniform and these are old dudes

224
00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:25.320
too. Just rub some dirt on
it, get back out there, boy.

225
00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:29.759
Yeah, yeah, exactly. You
wonder and Zion knows like he's had

226
00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:33.440
enough injuries, and trust me,
he was fired up in that game and

227
00:16:33.519 --> 00:16:37.960
playing great and like I said,
sort of willing them to a home victory.

228
00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:41.720
I think they did not want to
leave. Like he felt a click

229
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:48.279
of some kind and he kind of
limped back and he knew. I don't

230
00:16:48.320 --> 00:16:52.399
know, man, It's did not
look to me like he wasn't limping so

231
00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:56.039
bad that he couldn't move. And
maybe maybe there's something to that where you

232
00:16:56.159 --> 00:17:00.639
got to just be a be a
badass and not leave, But it feels

233
00:17:00.639 --> 00:17:03.079
like he knew something was up.
Yeah, it sounds like that. I

234
00:17:03.079 --> 00:17:08.480
mean, the latest on this is
they're saying it was a hamstring. Yeah,

235
00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:14.240
okay, and that might because if
you watch that game, eighty percent

236
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:18.079
Zion still belonged on the floor.
Yeah. So you know, if it

237
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:22.680
is something he could just deal with
and fight through, yeah, I also

238
00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:30.480
do it. Shuck athletics will uh
gillery, I don't know, observed Zion

239
00:17:30.640 --> 00:17:36.440
leaving the arena without a limp and
without any visible wrap on his leg.

240
00:17:36.559 --> 00:17:38.400
All right, well, maybe they're
right then Zion walking out of the arena.

241
00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:41.039
I'm sorry, Maybe you should have
just toughed it up. If that's

242
00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:45.519
the case, I don't know.
Somebody named rod Walker Zion walking out of

243
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:48.759
arena and seems to be fine,
and he seems to be in a good

244
00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:55.119
mood. We will know more tomorrow, hopefully. I'll tell you this.

245
00:17:55.200 --> 00:18:00.319
Lebron looks pretty old. I mean
he's you know, he looks old like

246
00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:02.559
his face, his hair, and
it's amazing. He's so playing. He

247
00:18:02.599 --> 00:18:03.960
almost had a damn triple double.
He had twenty three, nine and nine.

248
00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.079
Are you talking about just his appearance
or his play? Oh okay,

249
00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:10.920
he is for an NBA player,
Yes, he is old. And that's

250
00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:14.559
a lot of miles regards, you
know, in spite of everything that that

251
00:18:14.640 --> 00:18:21.440
dude does to maintain his body maintenance, and he runs that team like in

252
00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:23.680
that fourth quarter, he's calling people
out, yelling like get over there,

253
00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:27.559
like clear out. I love he's
so smart. I actually always love Lebron.

254
00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:30.640
I have no beef with Lebron.
And I always say, what's the

255
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:33.440
worst thing Lebron ever did? And
it's maybe do his little press conference about

256
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:37.920
taking his talace to South Beach,
you know, like he's did stand out

257
00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:41.680
of trouble. Good dude. I
like Lebron. I think it's he gives

258
00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:45.400
off a little bit of phony vibes. You mean when he arrives to the

259
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:52.720
I've told you this, just as
his personality seems a little contrived sometimes and

260
00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:55.079
that that can I mean, like
you said, I got no problem with

261
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:57.079
him either. I like him.
I do too. I think he's Do

262
00:18:57.119 --> 00:19:02.039
you ever see like first page Lebron. It's called that there's a meme because

263
00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:04.880
they have Yes, twenty picture has
been walking into the books, Yeah,

264
00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:08.119
into the arena, like with a
book that he's reading and he's always on

265
00:19:08.160 --> 00:19:12.960
the first page. And it's like
Catcher in the Rye but he's always on

266
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:18.799
the first page. So yes,
that does the Complete Works of Sylvia Plaiz.

267
00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:22.000
It's a page three. It does
feed into that. It's funny.

268
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:26.480
You're never at the end, it's
really funny. But anyway, Lakers win,

269
00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:30.680
so they punch their tick and the
Pelicans have to then play the winner

270
00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:37.200
of the Kings and Warriors. Same
thing. Warriors gone great just because we

271
00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:41.519
our mouth breathers and we're like,
ooh, Sep Curry, Klay Thompson scary,

272
00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:45.759
but they're gone and the Kings are
just better. I mean, I

273
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:51.079
fear some bonus more than I do
anyone on on the Warriors. That includes

274
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:53.319
Steph. But they handle up pretty
good. Man. They whipped him in

275
00:19:53.319 --> 00:19:56.279
the second half, third and fourth
quarter. In the Kings. Then advance

276
00:19:56.319 --> 00:20:00.160
will be Kings and Pelicans plan.
It's fun to talk about just because we

277
00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:03.839
are maths nuts right now, dude, I believe and I'm fired up.

278
00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:08.440
And because the Nuggets fall to the
two seed, you are now you got

279
00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:12.480
to play the Clippers and then you
if you win, you will likely play

280
00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:18.960
the Thunder in round two instead of
playing the Nuggets. And I don't know

281
00:20:18.079 --> 00:20:22.400
Thunder for the course of a season
or better than the Mavericks, but the

282
00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:26.119
Mavericks are not the team that they
were being the season. Man, they

283
00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:30.240
are something else. And dude,
I heard an interview with an ESPN guy

284
00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:37.680
for the Clippers. He sounded scared. They it was like he they don't

285
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:41.559
know if they have Kawhi right or
what version of ki is. Yeah,

286
00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:42.880
he's got a leg injury, so
they don't know what the hell they're going

287
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:47.200
to get out of him if he's
even on the floor. And like they

288
00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:48.599
asked the guy, They're like,
so, how does how did the Clippers

289
00:20:48.599 --> 00:20:52.839
slow down Kyrie or And he's like, oh, they don't, No,

290
00:20:52.839 --> 00:20:56.279
no one can like they And it
wasn't even really about Luca. Like he

291
00:20:56.359 --> 00:21:00.720
sounded scared, and he sounded like
the clip this guy covers the Clippers every

292
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:04.519
day and he's like, yeah,
no, this ain't happening. Like he

293
00:21:04.680 --> 00:21:08.519
in his voice you could hear it, and essentially said it that we can't

294
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:11.559
hang with them. They said,
Paul George takes kind of a back seat,

295
00:21:11.599 --> 00:21:15.240
and we had Westbrook and hardened,
but no Kawhi, he said,

296
00:21:15.279 --> 00:21:18.279
With no Kawhi, this team is
so different. They didn't lose a game

297
00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:21.799
in December, I think, but
that's when they're running on all cylinders,

298
00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:26.200
like Kawhi hasn't played in a couple
of weeks and just defensively, he means

299
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:30.279
so much and without him they cannot
stop the Maverick freight train. I don't

300
00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:34.400
think Sacramento is scary. Sacramento is
scary. I think Oklahoma City can be

301
00:21:34.400 --> 00:21:38.559
scary. Yes, for sure they
are. But keep in mind, you

302
00:21:38.599 --> 00:21:44.200
know what the MAVs did to Sacramento
and those back to backs. I mean

303
00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:48.480
that was pretty damn depressed obviously after
the trade. But that's who they are

304
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:51.920
now. I'm telling you the MAVs
scare the hell out of people. Yeah,

305
00:21:51.920 --> 00:21:53.759
they do, and maybe not to
a level we can't beat them,

306
00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:57.920
although it sounded like in Clipper Man's
voice he was like, we want no

307
00:21:59.000 --> 00:22:02.519
part of this. I can't wait
to talk to Kevin Gray about this at

308
00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:06.039
nine. Yeah, and the maps, Clippers series times and everything have been

309
00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:08.759
released. First game is Sunday,
the twenty first, just a few days

310
00:22:08.759 --> 00:22:11.960
away. They're playing at two point
thirty in the afternoon against the Clippers,

311
00:22:12.039 --> 00:22:15.960
Game one in Los Angeles. We'll
have Kevin Gray, the pre and post

312
00:22:15.960 --> 00:22:18.240
game show host, right here in
ninety seven on the Freak, joining us

313
00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:22.640
at nine a m uh yeah.
A little more maps coming up later on,

314
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:26.480
but coming up next, you got
the butt. It's time for the

315
00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:29.839
butt. I actually have a bunch. What's in the butther funt? Well,

316
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:33.680
what's inside the butt? Yes,
the scuttle button right is the name

317
00:22:33.720 --> 00:22:34.880
of it. I have a couple
of sports things we never got to in

318
00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:38.039
this segment we're gonna hit and one
of them is loosely sports related, because

319
00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:41.680
I just can't get over how much
damn money Mark Cuban has to pay in

320
00:22:41.759 --> 00:22:47.279
taxes, has to wire the government. It's just not our world. I'm

321
00:22:47.279 --> 00:22:49.279
getting all that next right here on
ninety seven on the Free
