13
00:01:17.879 --> 00:01:23.599
excited about that and was thrilled to

free to join us and talk about whatever

18
00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:44.519
you want. It does not have
to be the topic that we're discussing.

19
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:48.480
Or you can text the program Sports
Radio to twenty one thousand. Couple of

20
00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:52.040
things here. As we get rolling
here in the second hour, I had

21
00:01:52.079 --> 00:01:57.280
mentioned just before we replayed the interview
with James Edwards from the Athletic hope you

22
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:00.640
enjoyed that. I thought it was
very revealing and we'll get into the pistons

23
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:04.120
here in a moment. But I
said just before then, I said,

24
00:02:04.359 --> 00:02:07.840
we're going to talk a little bit
about one of our pole questions. And

25
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:10.560
one of the pole questions, we
have two of them on there, and

26
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:15.800
one of them is should Connor McDavid
win the con Smyth even if Edmonton loses

27
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:23.560
the series. This trophy has been
awarded fifty eight times. It's given to

28
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:27.960
a player from a team that lost
in the Stanley Cup Finals just five times.

29
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:35.479
One was a Red Wing. Roger
Krozier of the Red Wings, even

30
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:38.360
though they lost in the Stanley Cup
Finals, was named the Con Smyth Trophy

31
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:45.240
winner in nineteen sixty six, Glenn
Hall of the Saint Louis Blues. Two

32
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:47.840
years later nineteen sixty eight, the
Blues lost to the Stanley Cup Finals,

33
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:59.000
but he was named the Con Smyth
Award winner. Ron Hextall for the Philadelphia

34
00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:05.759
Flyers inteen maybe seven, They lost, but he was named the Count Smith

35
00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:10.479
winner. And Jean Sebastian Jaguere of
the Mighty Ducks Savannaheim in two thousand and

36
00:03:10.479 --> 00:03:17.919
three. They lost, but he
was named the Count Smith winner. What

37
00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:27.719
do all those men have in common? Exactly? They're all goaltenders. Connor

38
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:35.840
McDavid, one would guess, even
if they lose, would be named the

39
00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:40.520
Con Smythe Award winner. He's been
the best player in the series. He's

40
00:03:40.520 --> 00:03:51.000
been the best player in the playoffs
based on what well points are important?

41
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:55.639
You know, I mean, who
else you're going to choose? So my

42
00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:59.879
son and I were talking about this
the other day. Who else you think

43
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:06.319
you're gonna do it? Because McDavid
has led the playoffs in scoring by a

44
00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:11.599
wide margin eight points better than his
teammate. By the way, Leon dry

45
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:19.120
Sittle in his line might it's Pathwayne
Gretzky for most assists in his Stanley Cup

46
00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:28.680
playoffs. That's impressive. So I
think he's been correct me. If you

47
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:32.959
think I'm wrong here, feel free
to join us. I think he's been

48
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:36.720
the best player in the playoffs.
I don't think there's much doubt about that.

49
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:42.040
I suppose some people may try to
make a case, and I think

50
00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:46.600
it would be fair for Leon dry
Siddle. He's got ten goals, but

51
00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:55.399
he's got twenty eight points. Matthew
k Chuck, He's been really good for

52
00:04:55.439 --> 00:05:00.399
Florida. He's probably been their most
consistent player. Alexander Barkoff, but he

53
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:01.439
he went through a little bit of
a stretch of the last couple of games

54
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:06.839
where it hasn't been all that great. Gustaf Foresling, but he's a defenseman.

55
00:05:06.839 --> 00:05:10.720
You're not gonna you know. That's
I know Nick Lidstrom has won it

56
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:15.480
before for the Red Wings, but
that's just a that's a tough one when

57
00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:18.560
you're giving up as many even though
you don't always look at one defenseman get

58
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:24.279
up thirteen goals the last couple.
Sam Reinhardt was their best offensive player all

59
00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:30.160
season long. He's a free agent, by the way, but that's you

60
00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:32.839
know, you want to throw his
name in there. I think you're reaching

61
00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:39.839
if that's the case. Anyway,
that's one of the poll questions. You

62
00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:43.439
can vote as often he you'll like, follow us on x x'es and bros

63
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:46.199
what used to be Twitter, and
voters off and hes you like, and

64
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:49.879
we'll give you the results on Monday. Okay, we're going to do it

65
00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:56.040
on Monday. Here's the other thing
somebody had. I don't know if they're

66
00:05:56.040 --> 00:06:00.480
associated with the Golf Channel. Earlier
in the week we were talking about the

67
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:04.199
US Open Rory McElroy. One of
our poll questions then was did macelroyd lose

68
00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:11.240
it? Or did Shambo win it? Your overwhelming response was McElroy lost it.

69
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:15.040
John Rahm came out and said,
you don't realize how difficult to put

70
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:17.399
that was on eighteen, how it
was curling left to right, and so

71
00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:25.680
on and so forth. Somebody said, look, due to bogeying three of

72
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:31.240
the last four holes and what some
would call a meltdown. Remember Bryson deshambo

73
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:42.480
bogeyed a relatively easy putt quote unquote
on fifteen, but we don't bring that

74
00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:47.639
up. My immediate thought was,
well, that's because I mean, first

75
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:50.639
of all, McElroy again, Bogie. Three of the last four, and

76
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:57.240
two of those three sixteen and eighteen
were three foot putts, And I'm not

77
00:06:57.240 --> 00:07:00.920
saying they're easy. I've missed my
fair share the hell of a lot less

78
00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:03.399
on the line. But I don't
get paid for a living to do it

79
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:10.639
either. He missed two putts that
he had gone four hundred and ninety six

80
00:07:10.720 --> 00:07:15.600
for four hundred and ninety six prior
to then. That's really impressive, right,

81
00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:20.360
you make four hundred and ninety six
putts in a row from three feet

82
00:07:20.399 --> 00:07:26.279
or closer. Those are you know, gimmes. And by the way,

83
00:07:26.319 --> 00:07:31.199
they not all of those could be
just you know, straight potts. So

84
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:34.519
when you make that many in a
row and then you miss two of the

85
00:07:34.600 --> 00:07:41.079
last three in similar fashion, people
are bound to see, to feel and

86
00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:43.319
say, what of course they are
They're gonna go, you know what I

87
00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:48.279
mean, choke, That's what they're
gonna think. That's the first thing that

88
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:56.040
comes to mind. So I guess
I'm a little confused with why people are

89
00:07:56.079 --> 00:08:00.839
trying to So Deshambo missed a pot
Okay, I thought it was uphill and

90
00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:03.480
you thought it was straight. It
was a little bit longer than mcloy's,

91
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:11.439
but that shouldn't matter. He missed
it. Okay also redeemed himself also the

92
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:16.240
shot of the tournament, one of
the best shots in the history of the

93
00:08:16.279 --> 00:08:24.160
sport, at least from a major
standpoint, was his chippin out of the

94
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:30.279
sand. And what's interesting about that
is that Deshambo prior to that tournament,

95
00:08:30.319 --> 00:08:33.799
when people asked him, he was
doing a press conference, I believe,

96
00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:39.720
what's the most difficult shot for you? And he said the fifty yard or

97
00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:48.519
maybe it's maybe said fifty five sandshot. That's the one he struggles with.

98
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:56.559
Nobody in that tournament all weekend who
was in that bunker were able to get

99
00:08:56.679 --> 00:09:05.000
up and down for par until he
did it as the member of the last

100
00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:09.879
group and the second to last shot
of the entire tournament, because Matthew Pomon

101
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:15.840
had to tap in for par.
Something to be said for that, don't

102
00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:20.679
you think when we come back JJ
Reddick, now the Lakers head coach,

103
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:30.360
there's a report that there are four
men coming in to talk about the Pistons

104
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:37.039
head coaching gig all four James Edwards
just mentioned as part of our interview yesterday.

105
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:41.120
We'll talk about that when we return
on Ex's and Bros. Ten after

106
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:45.000
the hour on a Friday morning.

The Huge Show later on today three until

137
00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:28.799
six. Free Press yesterday indicating that
they have confirmed that four men will come

138
00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:35.440
in as candidates to interview for the
Pistons job. One is Dallas Maverick's assistant

139
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:41.240
John Sweeney, one is Minnesota Timberwolves
assistant Michael Nori. Another is New Orleans

140
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:52.000
Pelicans assistant James Barrego and former Cleveland
Cavaliers coach JB. Bickerstaff. Barrego was

141
00:12:54.360 --> 00:13:01.759
a guy who's familiar with trade and
Langdon known. He had a four year

142
00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:07.559
run as head coach in Charlotte from
twenty eighteen through twenty twenty two. They

143
00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:13.440
wanted him to rebuild that team.
If you will remember, LaMelo Ball was

144
00:13:13.519 --> 00:13:20.960
part of that, as James Edwards
pointed out in the Athletic to us yesterday,

145
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:26.440
and we replayed this earlier he said, Look, this guy's a he's

146
00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:33.399
considered one of the best better offensive
mines in the league, so could he

147
00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:39.399
be the right fit? Now?
I wonder how many people think about this.

148
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:48.159
Coaches who take over teams like the
Pistons oftentimes don't get a chance to

149
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:54.039
see that through. People feel like
there are steps. You got to get

150
00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:56.120
us to this, and then we
get the next guy to get us to

151
00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:05.759
hear. I can't say that I
always believe in that, but for this

152
00:14:05.879 --> 00:14:13.000
situation, when you're going to go
from seventeen to fourteen to what number of

153
00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:16.919
wins can you build upon? That, the belief is always, Like you

154
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:22.720
and I both know this, the
belief is always one year you are reaching

155
00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:28.679
a certain amount of victories a certain
level, and that because of those wins

156
00:14:30.440 --> 00:14:35.799
and that experience, you're going to
what take the next step? Whatever that

157
00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:41.799
step may be, Okay, maybe
maybe from horrid to average, and it

158
00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:48.759
might be then from average to solid, and from solid to very good,

159
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:52.279
and from very good to excellent,
from excellent to championship material. I don't

160
00:14:52.320 --> 00:15:01.480
know how you want to use that
ladder, but people automatically think, especially

161
00:15:01.480 --> 00:15:05.480
with the young teams, next year
is going to be better pretty good example

162
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:09.240
of it right now is the Tigers. And I fell into the trap,

163
00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:13.960
Okay, I did. I thought, this is a team that's going to

164
00:15:13.960 --> 00:15:20.840
be better than last year because guys
are going to grow. The front off

165
00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:28.480
is going to do something in the
off season to help them advance the victories

166
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:37.200
and the statistics and the experiences,
and they haven't. Offense is much worse

167
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:45.159
than anyone expected. And you have
to ask yourself, knowing the date that

168
00:15:45.240 --> 00:15:50.519
it is right now, it's June
twenty first, knowing that is this going

169
00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:58.360
to be another long summer of losing
baseball? It's fair to ask that question.

170
00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:07.480
People feel like it can't get any
worse. For the Pistons winning fourteen

171
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:11.360
games, right, isn't that the
mindset? It's a franchise worst. They

172
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:15.000
lost twenty eight games in a row. No one had ever done that before

173
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:17.919
in the history of the NBA.
Right, how can I get any worse

174
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:22.440
than that? I agree with you, And then I stop myself and I

175
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:26.519
think, wait a minute. In
twenty twenty three they won seventeen games.

176
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:33.360
You know what I said at the
end of that season, can't get any

177
00:16:33.399 --> 00:16:37.799
worse. It did, And I'm
not saying it's going to be worse.

178
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:47.200
I'm just the expected process doesn't always
go the way we expect or want it

179
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:56.879
to. Unfortunately, so is James
Barrigo. That guy is it the next

180
00:16:56.879 --> 00:17:03.279
few years. We need to take
this step and then the new guy comes

181
00:17:03.320 --> 00:17:10.240
in with more experience. Folks,
you remember the Tigers in the mid teens,

182
00:17:10.319 --> 00:17:12.519
right, and we felt like,
okay, they were a manager away

183
00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:22.599
and what did they do? They
brought in Brad Ostmas. One of the

184
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:30.640
worst decisions the organization has ever made. Right, would you agree with that?

185
00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:37.680
You can talk about first overall picks
Matt Anderson. You can talk about

186
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:44.279
draft picks in general or trades right
Verlander, j D Martinez. You can

187
00:17:44.279 --> 00:17:56.119
talk about free agent signings Haave Bias, disgruntled players, Juan Gonzalez, ridiculous

188
00:17:56.119 --> 00:18:03.359
contract offers Juan Gonzalez. You can
talk about all that stuff. Right,

189
00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:08.000
Stupid decisions right now. I went
off on a tangent the other day about

190
00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:14.279
this. It's ridiculous to think that
this is what people want. Better seats.

191
00:18:14.319 --> 00:18:15.960
No, people want winning product.
I'm not going to go into that

192
00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:21.759
again, but you know we saw
that, right, one of the worst

193
00:18:21.759 --> 00:18:29.400
decisions ever made. Brad ausmis As
a first year manager takes over a team

194
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:34.680
that is on the cusp of not
just winning the division, winning games and

195
00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:41.680
winning the division, but a World
Series favorite, and it blows up in

196
00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:51.400
their face. They needed a more
seasoned manager, right. That was when

197
00:18:51.400 --> 00:19:00.839
everyone was like bringing Ron garden Higher
agreed one hundred percent. They got it

198
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:04.079
wrong. They went vice versa.
They went ausmis with the veteran laden team

199
00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:07.720
that was on the cusp of winning. Then when they decided to blow it

200
00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:11.240
up bringing new guys, what do
they do? They go with the old

201
00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:15.359
school guy in Ron garden Higher,
who, let's face it, took the

202
00:19:15.440 --> 00:19:18.880
job because he was out of baseball, want on one last kick at the

203
00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:25.839
can. Why don't owners get it? Why are you hiring people for a

204
00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:30.799
money Monte Williams, The only reason
he came back was money. I told

205
00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:33.480
you that I did not like the
hire. I don't know. The man

206
00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:40.880
seems like a good enough person.
Obviously has credentials to be a head coach.

207
00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:45.400
Five winning seasons out of ten NBA
Coach of the Year, led a

208
00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:52.279
team to a Western Conference finals,
but openly admitted I need a break.

209
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:55.839
I want to get away from this
for a while. I don't want to

210
00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:59.799
coach, and the only way you
bring him back is I can't say no

211
00:19:59.839 --> 00:20:03.160
to the It's money except for the
rest of my life. Not that he

212
00:20:03.240 --> 00:20:10.079
wasn't already. He's got sixty five
million dollars over the next five years.

213
00:20:10.519 --> 00:20:14.480
It doesn't matter where he goes.
He's got a lounger somewhere. He's not

214
00:20:14.519 --> 00:20:18.720
breaking down tape, he's not getting
ready for his next job. This is

215
00:20:18.759 --> 00:20:22.200
what he wanted. Anyway, or
reason he came back is because of the

216
00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:26.200
money. It's a wrong reason.
Why would you bring him? Same thing

217
00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:36.000
with Ron Garden higher The reasoning is
off. So now with the pistons,

218
00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:40.119
where are you going? Are you
going a guy who can rebuild them?

219
00:20:40.640 --> 00:20:45.640
Or are you going with a guy
who can mold them? Is this the

220
00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:51.440
next step? Is this the guy
who's gonna get you to thirty five wins

221
00:20:52.400 --> 00:20:56.759
and eventually forty wins and then you're
gonna go sorry, we need that next

222
00:20:56.759 --> 00:21:02.880
guy to get us to the playoffs
and then be a championship contender. I

223
00:21:02.880 --> 00:21:06.720
don't know the answer to that.
I just know he's one of the four

224
00:21:06.759 --> 00:21:10.480
guys, according to the Detroit Free

about the Free Press article that indicates four

248
00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:21.119
men planned to interview at least so
far for the vacant Pistons head coaching gig

249
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:33.680
I told you about James Barrego.
Sean Sweeney is a Minnesota Timberwolve's assistant lead

250
00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:41.279
assistant head of the defense for the
Western Conference champion Dallas Mavericks. He was

251
00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:49.599
also part of Dwayne Casey's staff for
three years in Detroit, worked with Jason

252
00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:56.480
Kidd in Brooklyn, and as James
Edwards told you in our interview yesterday,

253
00:23:56.519 --> 00:24:06.640
he was critical. He was really
important in the development of Giannis Antete Campo,

254
00:24:07.000 --> 00:24:14.759
who swears by Sean Sweeney. That's
a pretty damn good endorsement. Now,

255
00:24:14.799 --> 00:24:21.000
with that said, we've heard of
other athletes and other men who've accomplished

256
00:24:21.000 --> 00:24:27.640
things before give rave reviews about certain
individuals, and that kind of convinced us

257
00:24:27.640 --> 00:24:30.640
that it was the right hire at
the time, before we find out it

258
00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:37.839
wasn't. Case In point, Earnie
of course, who accomplished a great deal

259
00:24:38.480 --> 00:24:48.599
as various teams general manager in the
NFL, strongly recommended Bob Quinn and the

260
00:24:48.640 --> 00:24:55.559
Lions hired him, and we all
know what happened there, right, Not

261
00:24:55.680 --> 00:24:59.119
that this falls under the same example, but Peyton Manning went to bat for

262
00:24:59.480 --> 00:25:03.759
Jim kaw Well. I like Jim
Caldwell. I thought he was a really

263
00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:08.519
good coach, especially Monday through Saturday
Sunday. You could understand some head scratching

264
00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:15.359
moments right that you and I may
have had. I think every fan base

265
00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:22.519
has that with their with their coaches
in the NFL. So just because jannisante

266
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:26.680
Tekempo says, oh, Sewan Sweeney's
the real deal, doesn't mean you hire

267
00:25:26.759 --> 00:25:30.880
him. But it sure doesn't hurt
right. You know what it is.

268
00:25:32.119 --> 00:25:37.119
It's basically a reference. You apply
for jobs, you hand in a resume,

269
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:40.720
they ask for references, You give
them the references. This one just

270
00:25:40.720 --> 00:25:42.960
happened to be a little bit more
public and a little bit larger name than

271
00:25:42.960 --> 00:25:52.359
most. So besides Barrego, besides
Sweeny, the Free Press is also reporting

272
00:25:52.400 --> 00:25:59.640
that Michaeh Nori, the New Orleans
Pelican's assistant, is also in that mix.

273
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:07.839
He should be a familiar name because
he's the lead assistant in Minnesota.

274
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:12.839
Chris Finch, the head coach there, remember when he had a problem when

275
00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:18.279
he injured his his left knee was
it his left knee whatever in a collision

276
00:26:18.359 --> 00:26:23.400
in the first round playoff series against
Phoenix and he had to sit in behind

277
00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:29.000
the bench. It was Mike Nory
who was kind of directing things. He

278
00:26:29.079 --> 00:26:37.400
too, worked on Dwayne Casey's staff
in Detroit for three years and he's had

279
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:45.160
stops in Toronto and Sacramento and Denver
as well, So he's got a nice

280
00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:51.160
resume that he's put together. And
then the last is JB. Bickerstaff,

281
00:26:51.599 --> 00:26:56.000
who you're familiar with as well as
a head coach in Cleveland. Personally,

282
00:26:56.640 --> 00:27:03.759
I would like to see Chris Quinn
added to that list. James and I

283
00:27:03.839 --> 00:27:11.359
talked about that yesterday. Guys worked
under Eric Spolster since twenty fourteen. I

284
00:27:11.400 --> 00:27:18.039
actually filled in for him as head
coach a couple of years ago, So

285
00:27:18.079 --> 00:27:22.079
I'd like to see that name added
too. But the four, even though

286
00:27:22.119 --> 00:27:29.079
they might not be huge names,
so what at some point it's so interesting

287
00:27:29.119 --> 00:27:33.200
in coaching if you look back and
you wonder if a guy is like I

288
00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:40.480
always bring up Joe Tory in this
Joe Tory, would you consider I mean,

289
00:27:40.480 --> 00:27:45.720
when you look at the all time
great managers in baseball, would you

290
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:49.759
say that Joe Tory was one of
them? Absolutely? Okay, He's a

291
00:27:49.799 --> 00:27:56.559
Hall of Fame manager, all right, And the way he handles his staff,

292
00:27:56.599 --> 00:28:03.160
the way he handled his players amazing, right. Helps to have talent,

293
00:28:03.559 --> 00:28:07.920
there's no doubt about that. But
to time manager of the Year,

294
00:28:08.720 --> 00:28:18.440
won six penance, won four World
Series. It's amazing, right. Look

295
00:28:18.480 --> 00:28:26.079
at his record before the Yankees,
Like, he goes to New York and

296
00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:29.000
he wins ninety two and ninety six, one hundred and fourteen and ninety eight.

297
00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:32.039
I mean, he's thrown up numbers
and you're like Wow, it's incredible.

298
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:37.759
Prior to New York, though,
back to back losing seasons in Saint

299
00:28:37.799 --> 00:28:49.000
Louis nineteen ninety he finished ten games
under five hundred. Under five hundred is

300
00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:53.279
last year in Atlanta, and with
the Mets, he didn't have one,

301
00:28:53.799 --> 00:29:00.880
not one winning season. He's a
player manage or seventy seven and then became

302
00:29:00.920 --> 00:29:04.839
full time manager seventy eight, three
eighty one. Not one winning season,

303
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:18.240
not a Hall of Fame manager.
Sometimes you just you need a second chance,

304
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:25.039
or you need the right situation if
you will, Okay, but sometimes

305
00:29:25.079 --> 00:29:30.279
those big names, I mean,
let's let's be honest. When Chuck Daily

306
00:29:30.359 --> 00:29:33.680
came to this a long time ago, I get it. But when Chuck

307
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:38.599
Daily came to Detroit, and if
you can recall, do you remember when

308
00:29:38.680 --> 00:29:45.880
Chuck Daily came to Detroit? Did
you know who he was? Like?

309
00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:52.759
I think people people remember Dick Vitell. They knew Dick Vitell because he was

310
00:29:52.799 --> 00:29:56.279
the head coach at the University of
Detroit. Not the guy who was on

311
00:29:56.319 --> 00:30:00.720
TV recently. But I'm talking about
the coach they were remembered him with Terry

312
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:12.440
Tyler and Terry dou Rod and John
Long at Uoud But did they Chuck Daily?

313
00:30:14.400 --> 00:30:21.559
You didn't remember Chuck Daily. You
didn't know about Chuck Daly as a

314
00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:27.000
as a head coach? Hell no, you didn't know he was the coach

315
00:30:29.880 --> 00:30:36.599
with the Philadelphia seventy six ers and
that it was a mighty struggle there.

316
00:30:36.680 --> 00:30:41.119
Did anybody anticipate him becoming the fifth
coach in NBA history to went back to

317
00:30:41.119 --> 00:30:48.839
back championships? Did anyone think that
he would lead the Dream Team, the

318
00:30:48.920 --> 00:30:55.039
original Dream Team, as the head
coach. I don't think anybody did.

319
00:30:55.920 --> 00:31:02.920
You couldn't have predicted that when he
first came to Detroit. Many people consider

320
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:10.039
him a top ten coach, top
fifteen coach at least in NBA history.

321
00:31:10.160 --> 00:31:15.960
But as a head coach, Well, what I say, did I say?

322
00:31:18.119 --> 00:31:21.519
Did I say Philadelphia? I'm I'm
in Cleveland? Right, He came

323
00:31:21.519 --> 00:31:26.039
from Cleveland, he was nine and
thirty two and got fired. Then he

324
00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:32.920
comes to Detroit. Then it maybe
took a little bit to get his feet

325
00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:36.279
under him, but he had a
winning record and everything every single year he

326
00:31:36.400 --> 00:31:44.079
was in Detroit until when I think, I think every year he had a

327
00:31:44.119 --> 00:31:51.680
winning record. Then he goes to
New Jersey and then Orlando, and then

328
00:31:51.720 --> 00:31:59.119
he retires, But the point was
when he came here from Cleveland, people

329
00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:07.640
didn't know who he was. So
keep an open mind, and I think

330
00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:12.599
people have. I think Pistons fans
have kept a very open mind when it

331
00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:16.200
comes to who the next head coach
of the Detroit Pistons going to be.

332
00:32:16.920 --> 00:32:22.599
I think people recognize, they realize
that the talent's really not there. It's

333
00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:27.079
not as much the coaching. Sure, there were some huge mistakes made by

334
00:32:27.240 --> 00:32:34.960
Monty Williams. It made no mistake. It made no sense whatsoever to start

335
00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:38.720
anybody other than Jade and Ivy,
and yet he goes with the guy who

336
00:32:38.720 --> 00:32:46.039
eventually he cuts and is out of
basketball. Right makes no sense. But

337
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:54.720
I think you should be okay with
an assistant right now who's cut his teeth

338
00:32:54.920 --> 00:33:00.920
and is now willing and earned an
opportunity to be first time head coach.

339
00:33:00.079 --> 00:33:07.519
I think it makes sense to do
that with this team. I really do.

340
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:15.119
I don't think many people knew who
Newsy. The loan was okay,

341
00:33:16.160 --> 00:33:19.160
and then he takes over the Red
Wings. Now, you may not be

342
00:33:19.200 --> 00:33:24.960
happy with it, but there are
plenty of There are plenty of examples of

343
00:33:25.079 --> 00:33:31.480
guys who have bided their time and
going on to be really good coaches or

344
00:33:31.519 --> 00:33:37.079
gotten second chance. Kevin Cash is
a good example of it. Anybody know

345
00:33:37.119 --> 00:33:44.839
who Kevin Cash was before he took
over in Tampa. No, see,

346
00:33:44.880 --> 00:33:51.799
you do the research after. That's
what I liked about James's article yesterday is

347
00:33:51.880 --> 00:33:53.920
the fact that he brought up names
right away. You know, people could

348
00:33:53.960 --> 00:34:00.920
talk about why Monty Williams was fired
and all this other stuff, But what

349
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:12.199
James did was bring up now,
where do they go from here? Phone

350
00:34:12.280 --> 00:34:15.679
number on the Meyer hotline eight sixty
six eight three, eight forty eight forty

351
00:34:15.719 --> 00:34:19.920
three, the text line of sports
Radio to twenty one thousand. I was

352
00:34:19.920 --> 00:34:22.880
looking at Kevin Cash real quick because
he was a player, you know.

353
00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:27.679
I mean, he was a player
with Boston for a little bit. But

354
00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:30.559
he's better known, obviously as a
manager than he was as a player.

355
00:34:31.039 --> 00:34:37.760
And he's been one of the better
managers I think in baseball. I mean,

356
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:43.000
considering what he's had to deal with, considering the payrule that he's been

357
00:34:44.000 --> 00:34:51.119
you know, challenged with, pretty
damn good. But you never heard of

358
00:34:51.199 --> 00:34:54.079
him. You'd take him now,
though, wouldn't you? Absolutely? You

359
00:34:54.119 --> 00:35:00.840
would really like the way, I
know, going to bring up a Blake

360
00:35:00.840 --> 00:35:07.000
Snell thing. I get all that, but I think he's I think he's

361
00:35:07.000 --> 00:35:19.679
been really good and considering before he
was the manager in Tampa. He he's

362
00:35:19.679 --> 00:35:27.360
a guy who was a coach under
Terry Francona with the Cleveland Indians, played

363
00:35:27.400 --> 00:35:30.119
for Francona a little bit and got
his shot and has it really looked back.

364
00:35:30.840 --> 00:35:35.440
Then you get a guy like aj
Hinch, for example, who started

365
00:35:35.480 --> 00:35:40.559
in Arizona, was fired there,
gets that second chance in Houston, wins

366
00:35:40.559 --> 00:35:45.480
a championship and parlays that into more
success. So there are a lot of

367
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:52.000
different ways to go about it,
and I think right now is the perfect

368
00:35:52.039 --> 00:35:54.880
time to have a lesser known guy
as long as he knows what the hell

369
00:35:54.920 --> 00:35:58.880
he's doing, you know, as
somebody tweeted to us the other day.

370
00:35:59.159 --> 00:36:02.039
As long as you get a coach
who players listen to and he can develop

371
00:36:02.079 --> 00:36:08.880
players. These men on this list, anyway, have proven track records of

372
00:36:08.920 --> 00:36:15.000
being in organizations. I don't know
if they've transformed a Giannis Anteta Compo,

373
00:36:15.119 --> 00:36:20.079
for example, even though Ante Tecumpo
gives Sean Sweeney a lot of credit for

374
00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:29.719
that, but these men have been
part of organizations that have seen a development

375
00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:36.760
of specific players and younger players and
key players to organizations. So whoever it

376
00:36:36.840 --> 00:36:39.320
is tick comes in, they that
has to be part of the criteria,

377
00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:45.800
right Let's face it, the Pistons, at least according to fans, and

378
00:36:45.840 --> 00:36:50.440
it sure seems like many many members
of the NBA fraternity, they're not going

379
00:36:50.480 --> 00:36:53.880
to draw the big name free agents
unless you're overspending and you don't want to

380
00:36:53.920 --> 00:36:59.280
do that. But you're not going
to draw that for some reason or another.

381
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:01.280
I don't know what it is.
Because it's a phenomenal facility, it's

382
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:05.400
a great sports town, it's good
people who live here. I mean,

383
00:37:05.440 --> 00:37:08.480
if you just give it a chance, you would understand all that. But

384
00:37:08.559 --> 00:37:13.000
maybe it's because you know you're playing
in front of you know, empty arenas,

385
00:37:13.039 --> 00:37:15.440
because you're losing and so on and
so forth. Who knows, But

386
00:37:15.559 --> 00:37:21.880
I digress. Let's face it,
you're going to have to draft and develop

387
00:37:21.920 --> 00:37:28.320
players, and you're going to have
to take over an organization that has a

388
00:37:28.400 --> 00:37:31.199
lot of young players, second youngest
team in the NBA, and you're going

389
00:37:31.280 --> 00:37:37.719
to have to make sure they get
to a stage where you're getting the most

390
00:37:37.719 --> 00:37:44.400
out of their potential. So that
has to be part of the interview process,

391
00:37:44.480 --> 00:37:46.800
right. I mean that's what Trajan
Langdon is going to interview these men

392
00:37:46.840 --> 00:37:51.920
on. He's going to ask them, how are you going to make Jalen

393
00:37:52.000 --> 00:37:58.119
durn better? What do you see
in Jaden Ivy's game that makes you think

394
00:37:58.119 --> 00:38:01.960
he could possibly be an All Star? I don't know. How do you

395
00:38:02.079 --> 00:38:10.039
take Caid Cunningham and get him to
the next level? What do you think

396
00:38:10.039 --> 00:38:15.000
about all these different players? You
can talk about offense, you can talk

397
00:38:15.000 --> 00:38:20.039
about defense all you want. That's
great. I think most of that is

398
00:38:20.480 --> 00:38:22.559
you know. I mean if you
look at a lot of the videos of

399
00:38:22.599 --> 00:38:25.400
the great basketball mind Steve Kerr,
for example, and why they run a

400
00:38:25.440 --> 00:38:30.639
certain type of action and how it
really creates mismatches and how it gets his

401
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:34.480
best players set up, it's fascinating
stuff. All these guys have these types

402
00:38:34.519 --> 00:38:39.199
of great plays in mind and these
philosophies. I want to know how you're

403
00:38:39.239 --> 00:38:47.719
going to make a young team better? I think that has to be one

404
00:38:47.760 --> 00:38:55.440
of the number one, one of
your top five questions to these these candidates.

405
00:38:55.840 --> 00:38:59.400
How are you going to make how
are you going to get the most

406
00:39:00.000 --> 00:39:02.639
out of our young core? And
then you can talk about, obviously,

407
00:39:04.440 --> 00:39:07.039
who do you see, as a
member of this young core, what could

408
00:39:07.079 --> 00:39:10.960
we get. Where's your vision of
this guy playing where, and so on

409
00:39:12.000 --> 00:39:16.119
and so forth. But overall,
you've got to find a way to make

410
00:39:16.559 --> 00:39:21.599
some of the young guys better on
this team, because unless you pull off

411
00:39:21.599 --> 00:39:23.679
some type of massive trade, who
knows what you would get in return.

412
00:39:23.960 --> 00:39:30.440
But you're going to have to settle
and understand that you're going to develop a

413
00:39:30.480 --> 00:39:35.440
team. If you want to build
this for the long haul, like the

414
00:39:35.519 --> 00:39:39.320
Lions have done, like Steve Eisman
is trying to do, and like the

415
00:39:39.360 --> 00:39:44.840
Tigers are attempting to do as well, even though it's not going real well,

416
00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:51.400
You're going to have to develop young
players. You got to understand that

417
00:39:52.199 --> 00:39:55.840
you're coming into a situation where these
guys do not have a lot of experience

418
00:39:55.880 --> 00:40:00.400
and they have a lot of losing
experience. Changing the culture might be a

419
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:07.920
little drastic, but when you've won
seventeen games one year, fourteen games the

420
00:40:07.960 --> 00:40:12.320
next, you've been on that type
of in that type of situation, you

421
00:40:12.360 --> 00:40:19.480
are saddled with constant losing. You're
saddled with you've won thirty one games in

422
00:40:19.519 --> 00:40:27.159
the last two years. That is
not something that any coach any front office

423
00:40:28.920 --> 00:40:37.000
expects his team to deal with and
handle. Think about that for a second.

424
00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:43.199
Boston Celtics this year, have they
won more home games this season then

425
00:40:43.199 --> 00:40:51.920
the Pistons won total in the last
two years combined. Sometimes those types of

426
00:40:52.000 --> 00:40:57.480
stark realities need to be emphasized and
need to understand. This is why the

427
00:40:57.519 --> 00:41:00.480
young guys, they've gone through a
lot of growing pains. How are you

428
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:08.440
going to help them use that to
their advantage and turn it around? Meyer

east. My family and I used to

00:42:34.440 --> 00:42:37.880
You need beach towels, you need
toats, you need lawn chairs, all

00:42:37.960 --> 00:42:43.800
the things to make it enjoyable.
