WEBVTT 1 00:00:02.240 --> 00:00:06.120 Dreamy Live, I mean my heart Radio. This is I on the Ball 2 00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:12.560 with Steve Rivera and Jacob Salz on Fox Sports fourteen fifty. Hey, welcome 3 00:00:12.599 --> 00:00:16.399 back to Why on the Ball Fox Sports fourteen fifty times Steve Rivera jakins as 4 00:00:16.480 --> 00:00:20.239 now we have our boy Noah was some breaking news. This is I on 5 00:00:20.359 --> 00:00:26.320 the Ball breaking news on Fox Sports fourteen fifteen. First of all, I 6 00:00:26.440 --> 00:00:30.120 like to start with the most important one. Um Jay single handedly caused these 7 00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:35.280 Celtics lose last night. So I don't I'd understand what you gotta teach us 8 00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:38.679 your powers? Why why you keep saying that I did not touch There's no 9 00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:41.159 other way, right, I did not know the game. There's no other 10 00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:43.679 way. I did not touch the game. I barely watched any of the 11 00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:47.920 game. This is your reputation, this is what you've come to. I 12 00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:51.200 mean, look, I would love to take credit for that. I would 13 00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:54.640 love to say be able to say I put money on the Celtics, so 14 00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:58.840 therefore they lost and that's on me and I will accept that. But I 15 00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:08.719 had nothing to do with last watch the Chester cat guys. Yeah it wasn't 16 00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:17.439 man, it wasn't me. It wasn't Okay, all right, Um, 17 00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:19.840 Arizona men's tennis takes on boys, you say it at two pm Friday in 18 00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:25.319 the first round of the NCAA tournament. Yeah. Clancy Shields, the tennis 19 00:01:25.319 --> 00:01:27.519 coach, went out on social media, said, you know, let's get 20 00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:32.000 a thousand people there. So I guess that would be a lot for for 21 00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:34.280 their tennis match. But uh, you know, UM getting trying to get 22 00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.480 the word out to get folks. Which when is it tomorrow? Two o'clock 23 00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:45.359 Friday? Right there? They they played, then there's another match, I 24 00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:49.400 guess it. I guess afterwards, um, or maybe it's before. Let's 25 00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:53.040 see, um, who's in their bracket? No, earlier in the day 26 00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:59.120 a Florida and Oklahoma State at ten o'clock Tucson time, and then uh, 27 00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:02.879 Arizona it's it's a fourteen type of regional fourteen. It's like a fourteen subregional 28 00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:08.280 a bracket. Yeah, and so that's that's so the winners, the winners 29 00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:15.319 would play each other on Saturday at one o'clock. Okay, crazy? Um, 30 00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:20.159 So Jimmy Butler's officially ruled out tonight, which makes sense to kind of 31 00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:23.280 makes sense. I obviously, you see it's hard for them to go. 32 00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:25.319 It's hard for the Heat to actually go wrong now that they have at least 33 00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:30.439 home court advantage, and you know, at worst like split the series on 34 00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.759 the road. But the thing is like I don't understand. I don't know 35 00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:38.199 if you want the Knicks to gain momentum going back to Miami because like they're 36 00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:39.319 a good team, you know, they're well coached, they have good players, 37 00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:42.719 or if they have depth. It's like, if you're if you're in 38 00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:45.599 Miami, are you just hoping that like Jimmy's just gonna be able to just 39 00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:47.680 come back from his you know, ancles spraining, that's the size of Baseball'll 40 00:02:47.719 --> 00:02:52.400 just be Jimmy Butler. I don't know. A Draftking is just posted on 41 00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:59.919 Twitter that a trending bet uh money line on this game. It's trending towards 42 00:02:59.919 --> 00:03:01.479 the Heat beat. More people are baiting on the Heat than on the Necks. 43 00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:05.879 The Knicks are a minus five hundred, the Heat are plus four hundred, 44 00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:07.719 so people are throwing their money on the Heat. But that line is 45 00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:13.680 not moved to ten. The Knicks by ten. But you know, again, 46 00:03:13.919 --> 00:03:16.759 everybody thought the Sixers were gonna lose last night without Joel Embiid so who 47 00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:20.479 knows what the you know, if the heat step up and that I don't 48 00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:23.560 think the heat's got to James Harden though, something more something like a James 49 00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:29.360 Harden to fill in for Jimmy Butler. Yeah. So next thing you were 50 00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:34.039 telling me about Texas Texas A and M baseball player, Yeah, was hit 51 00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:36.840 by a stray bullet and a shooting that happened just like right outside there in 52 00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:39.560 the game over the weekend. There was some sort of shooting and he's just 53 00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:42.840 the on the bullpen, standing in the bullpen, gets hit the chest. 54 00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:46.639 A kid named Matthew Delane, he plays for Texas A and M Texarkana. 55 00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:52.680 Hit in the chest. He's got he's an intensive care partial paralysis and his 56 00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:58.319 left leg collapse, lung, but his mom says he's improven, eighteen years 57 00:03:58.360 --> 00:04:00.680 old, just sitting there doing what he's supposed to be doing, playing ball. 58 00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:05.479 Shot get shot. Um. You know, I was on on social 59 00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:10.199 media watching, Uh there was a video of a literally game and I'm talking 60 00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:13.719 a little literally gaming, you know, not not t ball, but the 61 00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:16.360 next step up coaches pitch or whatever, little kids, and all of sudden 62 00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:20.160 you hear all these shots in the background and What struck me about watching that 63 00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:24.600 video is that the kids knew exactly what to do. They all just hit 64 00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:28.600 the deck. But I'm like, they practiced this in school, and I'm 65 00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:30.959 like that really pissed me off. Or they didn't see where it was at, 66 00:04:31.160 --> 00:04:34.560 or they are used to the situation, or they're used to the situation. 67 00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:36.680 They know what to do. Yeah, but you know, you saw 68 00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:40.639 a couple of kids ran, Like the kid that was catching and the and 69 00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:43.759 the kid that was batting, they both just dropped their stuff and ran. 70 00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:46.600 But you saw the kids out in the field, they just went straight to 71 00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:51.839 the ground because they've they've been they've been trained. That's just amazing to me 72 00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:55.319 that we live in that country that has to be well, you know, 73 00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:59.920 you know back in our age, in our time sixty seventies, right, 74 00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.920 what were we talk kind of what I now that you should the nuclear bomb 75 00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:05.120 thing, right, get under your desk, like that was good, Like 76 00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:10.560 that was gonna help exactly exactly what I was thinking. That that's what we 77 00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:13.199 were thinking. That's what parents. Yeah, yeah, get under the desk, 78 00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:17.399 which was good, which is really going to help in the nuclear nuclear 79 00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:23.399 some some some positive news, Okay, Dylan Brooks has been told about that. 80 00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:26.439 He was you will not return, And I think what I love about 81 00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:30.319 this is that it's like if only there is like something that could have been 82 00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:31.959 prevented in this situation. I don't know, I don't think there was, 83 00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:38.759 but like not positive news for Yeah, it's great sore gm right, you're 84 00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:43.160 taking him is because I don't think he's on the level of Kyrie. He's 85 00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:45.879 not that good. He's not good, right, He's not that good. 86 00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:47.959 So he started right, I mean, he talks, I know, but 87 00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:54.759 he's he's that kind that's no. You know. Look, but look, 88 00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:57.800 I'm the guy that's not going to even take Kyrie Irving an incredible talent like 89 00:05:57.839 --> 00:06:00.279 him, I'm not gonna take. I'm not gonna bring his crap into my 90 00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:01.720 locker. But I don't think it's about him being good. It's about him 91 00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:04.439 talking a lot of cred Like what's what's the point of that? You can 92 00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:08.879 like think about it. He he has more of a curse on like his 93 00:06:08.920 --> 00:06:12.279 own team than Jay would happen and TV picks like he said, he said, 94 00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:15.519 he said, I won't respect he said, I won't respect anyone. 95 00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:18.120 I won't respect anyone until they give me forty. They got blasted by forty 96 00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:20.560 in game six, Like it's not you know what I mean, you don't 97 00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:26.040 need to say what you're saying. That's if you're a great player and you 98 00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:29.439 have baggage, somebody will take you. But if you're just kind of there's 99 00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:32.199 a lot of players out there, like Dylan Brooks who don't have the what 100 00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:36.680 who haven't done what Dylan Brooks did to his team. Again, he that's 101 00:06:38.000 --> 00:06:41.639 not all of why they lost, sure, but you know it's part of 102 00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:45.759 It's part of it. He'll find the row stot. Some people are saying 103 00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:49.519 even the Lakers might take its or someplace like yeah, like everyone's always going 104 00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:54.399 to Chinese. He's not going to China. The thing is like he'll It's 105 00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:57.199 like he could have if you wouldn't have said anything. No one really read 106 00:06:57.240 --> 00:06:59.720 like pointy hands at him or the Grizzies. He's one of the main reasons 107 00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:02.879 why one talks about the Grizzlies have a huge immaturity problem because they kind of 108 00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:05.360 do. It's like him and joh It's like they're young. Yeah, but 109 00:07:05.399 --> 00:07:10.000 it's like he did. He did so much to make the media look down 110 00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:12.399 on them, where it isn't really like bad with the actual team or the 111 00:07:12.439 --> 00:07:15.600 outcome. It's just just put ad I guarantee you of Memphis they're blaming some 112 00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:19.439 of it on him. Of course they are. They are, and and 113 00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:23.920 so you know, fans don't want that guy. So you know, again, 114 00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:28.240 there's plenty of guys out there like Dylon Brooks, plenty of guys as 115 00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:31.639 a player players, Yeah, as talented as Dylon Brooks that you can go 116 00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:38.199 get and they're not gonna have this other stuff. That's kind of all I 117 00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:41.839 got. So would you take him? He didn't know because of the reasons 118 00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:45.480 why I could. Yeah, because like you could find someone who's not like 119 00:07:45.920 --> 00:07:47.879 so, like you're saying, people like him, what does he do that's 120 00:07:47.920 --> 00:07:50.399 special? Like, what does he do that doesn't make him like a role 121 00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:54.800 player you could find on like every other team the NBA, you know exactly. 122 00:07:55.480 --> 00:07:58.439 That's it. And that's what I'm saying. He doesn't have anything special. 123 00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:01.560 That's some i'm's gonna say, well, well overlook this because he's this. 124 00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:05.319 He doesn't have anything like that. So it's like this season, he 125 00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:11.319 averaged thirty minutes of game fourteen points per game, three rebounds, uh two 126 00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:16.480 assists and one deal and shots under forty percent fieldgo percentaives. Anybody can do 127 00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:18.920 that. Anybody can do that. There's a lot of a lot of players 128 00:08:18.959 --> 00:08:24.759 out there do that. It's already yeah yeah, all right, um thing 129 00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:28.759 he skipped over yesterday and this, uh there was a story on this um 130 00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:35.679 the the commissioner of the Mountain West Conference No deathletic director of San Diego State 131 00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:39.759 came out and said, we're playing We're going either to the Big twelve or 132 00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:43.960 the PAC twelve. So he said, they're not staying in the Mountain in 133 00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:48.960 huss you know coming up. I mean, they're either going to go to 134 00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:52.559 the PAC twelve with the you know in the in the coming in the coming 135 00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:54.720 deal, or they're going to the Big twelve. So so I know this 136 00:08:54.799 --> 00:08:58.679 is not gonna be documented or whatever because we'll forget about it tomorrow. How 137 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:05.000 long do you think the PAC twelve will survive, because it's it's gonna be 138 00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:09.600 up at some point, you know, it is at least at least until 139 00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:15.720 like the SEC and the Big ten have to renew their contracts again. So 140 00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:18.519 that wove that would say, I bet you, I bet you. The 141 00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:22.519 PAC twelves media deal is like a five year deal. It's too it's too 142 00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:26.080 much teetering now if that makes sense. It's teetering now, yeah, and 143 00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:28.799 it'll probably teeter for the next five years. Well, Well, here's the 144 00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:35.679 thing is that Oregon in Washington, who feel like they can or should be 145 00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:39.399 able to go to the Big Ten, they're not gonna want to sign a 146 00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:46.320 PAC twelve deal that's longer than the next renew the Big Ten in for a 147 00:09:46.320 --> 00:09:48.240 while, right, Big TENSI just got their deal done, So they're not 148 00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:54.120 going to sign on anything longer than that when the when the next Big ten 149 00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:56.600 deal is so because they want they want to go to the Big Ten. 150 00:09:56.679 --> 00:10:03.440 And I think that that's yeah. I mean I kind of feel like the 151 00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:07.600 next round of it, I think is going to be different in that all 152 00:10:07.639 --> 00:10:11.200 the leagues are going to kind of restructure. Right, this whole idea that 153 00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:15.879 there's just gonna be four leagues, okay, and whatever you want to call 154 00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:16.960 them, if you want to call them the Big twelve in the SEC and 155 00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:20.279 the Big Ten or whatever. There's gonna be four leagues. There's gonna be 156 00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:24.039 like sixteen teams in each league. And I don't think it's gonna be real 157 00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:26.879 it. Maybe it'll be regional, maybe it won't. It would take a 158 00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:33.840 lot of There would have to be a lot of people who aren't generally agreeable 159 00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:37.919 will with each other to I'll get in a room and agree to do the 160 00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:41.639 same thing and not be grabbing on to as much as they can grab onto 161 00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.639 Like the SEC doesn't like the victend does. So I got some Pimo stuff 162 00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:52.200 Pimo baseball. Andrew Stucky, his CDEO grad was named acc AC Player of 163 00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:56.840 the Year. He must have a great offensive type of year. Thirty seven 164 00:10:56.919 --> 00:11:05.159 RBIs bad for eighty five home runs, did really well and just the CDEO 165 00:11:05.240 --> 00:11:09.679 grad. And also there was did you see the APR email from this Oh 166 00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:13.279 yeah, I didn't even look, which which I'm thinking, great, but 167 00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:18.360 it's like APR and GPA and all that. Okay, you're student athlete, 168 00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:22.440 Okay, big deal. No one pays attention to that part of the student 169 00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:26.399 athlete. Yeah, and I know that the school's really you know, try 170 00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:28.639 and put that out, but you know, how much does you have all 171 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:33.440 the average fances?

Okay, that's what you were saying. 261 00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:08.079 Kids. I don't know, I don't I had to hear it. 262 00:18:08.119 --> 00:18:11.200 Phones or something. Wow, Okay, that's too. Is that he surprised 263 00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:15.240 I have a little I think No, I think he was. He was 264 00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:21.440 like minus one thousand. He didn't want to do three. I just I 265 00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:23.279 didn't think he deserved as honestly, he doesn't even he just play defense the 266 00:18:23.279 --> 00:18:27.839 waybid does you know? Did you watch the Sun's uh Suns game last some 267 00:18:27.960 --> 00:18:33.880 of it? How did how did uh DeAndre play? Well, I'm gonna 268 00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:37.000 say probably not very well because I really didn't even notice him out there. 269 00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:41.519 Okay, right, he wasn't doing he wasn't doing anything, you know, 270 00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:45.319 to impact the game. So the game one criticism didn't spark him. He's 271 00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:48.039 not good, Like he's just not good. There's a clip of him we 272 00:18:48.160 --> 00:18:52.400 talked about like like what, Yeah, that's that's that's that's just who he 273 00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:55.759 is. You could find a clip of that, like every single quarter that 274 00:18:55.799 --> 00:19:00.200 he played. That's gonna kill his career. You know. Yeah, well 275 00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:03.640 they yeah, I mean they gave him his big money, but you know 276 00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:07.200 they also gave him the big money thinking that they were gonna get rid of 277 00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:11.160 it anyway. They paid him hoping this with motive because they already knew what 278 00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:12.400 they were getting right, and that's why they didn't want to do it. 279 00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:18.839 I don't know, man, It just again one of those things that bothers 280 00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:22.519 me to see such a talent, some guy with all the physical talent you 281 00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:25.880 could ever want. I mean, they poured it all into one guy. 282 00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:29.519 I mean really, I mean think about all the Arizona guys that have come 283 00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:33.480 through here, the Sean Elliotts, the Mike Bibbies, everybody from just a 284 00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:37.680 physical talent. Yeah, no, no, you have to say that DeAndre 285 00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:42.880 Ayton was the best physical talent ever to come through Arizona. Yes, I'll 286 00:19:42.920 --> 00:19:48.920 give you another dude that doesn't fit the bill, but kind of Brian Williams. 287 00:19:48.599 --> 00:19:52.640 This physical can run up the court, play basketball out of your mind, 288 00:19:52.960 --> 00:19:56.400 but wasn't into basketball. Yeah, just because you're big, people expected 289 00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:03.279 him to play basketball. It makes sense covered in Yes, do I still 290 00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:08.000 think in terms of this the specimen that DeAndre Hayden was, all the things 291 00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:11.799 that he could do that he was, he was, he was better than 292 00:20:11.839 --> 00:20:15.039 Brian Williams. Oh yeah, yeah, But you understand what I'm saying. 293 00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:18.200 To understand what yourself, because the thing about it, you and me and 294 00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:22.000 any common person say, you've been gifted this and you turn it into that. 295 00:20:22.240 --> 00:20:26.160 What that's That's where I'm That's where I was going with that, is 296 00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:30.440 that I hate that? Yeah, I hate that. Or somebody is so 297 00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:33.720 gifted like that and then they crap all over their career by doing stupid stuff. 298 00:20:33.799 --> 00:20:37.079 My dad, who was a former athlete back in the day, we 299 00:20:37.119 --> 00:20:41.920 had a neighbor who was and I was, you know, this scrun he 300 00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:44.519 spent a kid, you know, skinny or whatever, could run, and 301 00:20:44.559 --> 00:20:49.000 he had We had a neighbor who was about six two big and he didn't 302 00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:52.400 do it. He didn't play sports, didn't do any skateboarded a little. 303 00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:56.279 And I said, my dad was, you've been God gave you this and 304 00:20:56.440 --> 00:21:00.680 you're doing this with it? What are you doing? No? Yeah, 305 00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:04.480 and when there's so many others of us who wish we had a third of 306 00:21:04.480 --> 00:21:08.720 the talent that somebody like that. Yeah, not talent size or the size. 307 00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:11.279 Yes, because that's what you're talking about. My son is mad at 308 00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:18.799 me that he didn't get past five dead. He's really well, your wife 309 00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:22.440 involved in this too, well yeah, but no, but see she's got 310 00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:26.440 some height in her family. So it's my fault, my you know, 311 00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:30.839 my wife's you know, late brother. He was six too. Her grandfather 312 00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:37.440 was you know, six four you know now her dad your dad was five 313 00:21:37.799 --> 00:21:41.599 five seven, so you know. But anyways, it just but you're you 314 00:21:41.640 --> 00:21:48.519 know, I mean, he's got to me. I think this series because 315 00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:52.039 so many people think that they can and should win it, and if if 316 00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:57.400 DeAndre Ayton doesn't do something maybe special, this is a day. You know, 317 00:21:57.680 --> 00:22:00.519 people just get sick of it in a hurry, don't you think. 318 00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:04.279 I think people already art stick of him, like like Suns fans are just 319 00:22:04.319 --> 00:22:07.640 like hopeful, but when he has a bad game, they call him out. 320 00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:08.200 When he has a good game, it's like, okay, you know 321 00:22:08.319 --> 00:22:12.480 that's where you're supposed to do, saying like when when when he when he 322 00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:17.240 has a bad game, it's not like, oh we understand like he's been. 323 00:22:17.480 --> 00:22:19.079 He hasn't done anything to justify a bad game, and it will allow 324 00:22:19.160 --> 00:22:23.519 you know, right, But I know, I just I it's it again. 325 00:22:23.599 --> 00:22:26.400 You know that that clip that you're talking about was just the worst thing. 326 00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:30.880 And I'm like, that's gonna stick. That's just gonna stick. People 327 00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:33.599 are gonna say you remember that, remember that, remember and they're gonna talk 328 00:22:33.599 --> 00:22:36.440 about it over and over and over again. But because you know what, 329 00:22:36.480 --> 00:22:38.640 the what you saw to that was that so many people say he does that 330 00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:41.680 all the time. Exactly. That's what I'm saying. Like you're like, 331 00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:44.359 it's gonna stick that they're gonna remember that. It's like they're yeah, they're 332 00:22:44.359 --> 00:22:47.240 gonna remember that, but they're gonna remember that as not just one thing, 333 00:22:47.319 --> 00:22:49.599 as that's him, Like right, that's who he is. Do you think 334 00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:52.599 I don't know why I thought this because stuff just pumps into my head. 335 00:22:52.839 --> 00:22:57.720 Do you think that, um, that we're gonna see more of speedy speedy 336 00:22:57.720 --> 00:23:00.640 look in in a in a in the role that you want to see Speedy 337 00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:03.839 in? Yeah, because I think part of what you know, he got 338 00:23:03.920 --> 00:23:06.599 hurt early, and I think that that, you know, that kind of 339 00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:10.440 held him back. They've got he is really good. They've got something. 340 00:23:10.599 --> 00:23:12.839 They've got something there with him, I think, don't you know if you 341 00:23:12.960 --> 00:23:15.119 use the right way, you know, he's not gonna be ah. You 342 00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:18.880 know, you're not gonna turn around and hand him off and run him up 343 00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:19.799 the middle. But you know, again, one of those guys you get 344 00:23:19.799 --> 00:23:25.200 out in space with Michael Whiley's sticking around, Um, you know, and 345 00:23:25.240 --> 00:23:29.200 some of the other guys that they have the kid um um Coleman and you 346 00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:32.799 know those guys. I think Speedy Luke is a guy that he's a weapon 347 00:23:32.839 --> 00:23:36.279 that you stick in there in certain situations and find a place for him. 348 00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:38.440 But you know, bringing to an interesting subject because I wanted to bring this 349 00:23:38.519 --> 00:23:41.079 up as we were figuring out stuff too, you know, to talk about 350 00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:45.440 here. You know, I'm on a I'm on a zoom call with a 351 00:23:45.559 --> 00:23:49.119 client and we're waiting for other people to join the zoom and just out of 352 00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:52.039 the blue, you know, one of the people on the college just having 353 00:23:52.039 --> 00:23:53.359 how's how do you think the football team is going to do? Now? 354 00:23:53.400 --> 00:23:59.359 I'm like, man, it's may right, barely may you know? And 355 00:23:59.359 --> 00:24:03.160 and people are talking football. I know, you know, we take small 356 00:24:03.200 --> 00:24:06.680 samples and we think that that's a trend. But the fact that you know, 357 00:24:06.759 --> 00:24:08.640 somebody out of the blue just kind of came up and said I wanted 358 00:24:08.680 --> 00:24:11.559 to know how football is doing? I thought that was you know, really 359 00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:17.880 was it? Jed asking? No, let's take this call. Hy You're 360 00:24:17.920 --> 00:24:21.640 on the R and I on the ball. Hey Jay, this is Don. 361 00:24:21.759 --> 00:24:25.440 How are you guys doing pretty good? Don? What's up? Hey, 362 00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:30.440 I just why I had to Why do you sound so sad talking about 363 00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:38.759 DeAndre Ayton as as an Arizona Wildcat? What do you mean, well, 364 00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:45.920 he was only here for the nil money. Well that was before he was 365 00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:52.519 pre nil and there's still some there's still some fans, former players that comes 366 00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:56.759 on once a week that that gets real upset when you mentioned the money. 367 00:24:56.559 --> 00:25:03.720 But there was no reason for for Ayton to come to Arizona. Sean Miller 368 00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:07.839 is a is a point guard coach. There was no reason from Ayton to 369 00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.920 come here. I don't consider the guy next Wildcat. Well you don't want 370 00:25:12.079 --> 00:25:17.400 here long enough? No good point, because what do you know of all 371 00:25:17.440 --> 00:25:19.599 the one and dunners? What do you even Aaron Gordon? What do you 372 00:25:19.640 --> 00:25:23.480 know about Jared Bayless? You don't know much about these guys. They surely 373 00:25:23.519 --> 00:25:27.000 don't come back, right, No, And that that's what one of the 374 00:25:27.000 --> 00:25:30.880 things that bothered me about the one and Done is that you don't feel like 375 00:25:30.039 --> 00:25:33.039 there's some guys that you don't feel like ever really wanted to be Wildcats. 376 00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:37.960 They just came here to do a year and get out. They came here 377 00:25:37.960 --> 00:25:41.920 to do their time. Yeah, right, that's what they came here to 378 00:25:41.960 --> 00:25:45.680 do their time so that they would be eligible to get into the NBA draft. 379 00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:48.880 No, I hear what I think. I think what you're what you're 380 00:25:48.920 --> 00:25:53.480 hearing me, though, don is that it bothers me when somebody who's got 381 00:25:53.640 --> 00:26:02.000 such a wealth of God given talent and ability that they don't make the most. 382 00:26:02.319 --> 00:26:07.839 That bothers me. I agree with that because if he tried, if 383 00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:14.880 he played at sixty percent, which those of us that have worked know that 384 00:26:15.039 --> 00:26:18.359 sixty percent is not a lot, right, if he would do that, 385 00:26:18.519 --> 00:26:22.319 how good would he really be? I mean, how good would he be 386 00:26:22.359 --> 00:26:26.480 at sixty percent? And he does he doesn't seem like he's putting out even 387 00:26:26.519 --> 00:26:30.319 that. That's the frustrating part of watching him and the problem with all this, 388 00:26:30.519 --> 00:26:33.319 not the problem just the statements that were made before he got here. 389 00:26:33.640 --> 00:26:38.079 He's the guy who kind of coasts because he feels he can because he's been 390 00:26:38.079 --> 00:26:41.359 gifted with all that. He was, you know, played against smaller guys, 391 00:26:41.680 --> 00:26:45.880 less athletics, so he was dominant without having to put in the work. 392 00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:49.720 Right. Yeah, Well, it's it's like the last couple of years, 393 00:26:49.720 --> 00:26:52.720 anytime the Suns have been on and I've watched him and I'm like, 394 00:26:53.599 --> 00:26:57.359 is they be playing and I have to I have to check the court to 395 00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:00.720 say, oh, yeah, look he's on a court. Yeah yeah, 396 00:27:00.880 --> 00:27:04.519 well that's why I said a minute. And then other times it's it's you 397 00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:07.960 know, it's slam dunk after slam dunk, a block shot, a slam 398 00:27:08.039 --> 00:27:11.960 dunk, and then he disappears for the rest of that quarter or whatever. 399 00:27:12.160 --> 00:27:15.160 Yeah, and to me, as the relays for Arizona, you know, 400 00:27:15.240 --> 00:27:21.920 the way he dominated in that PAC twelve tournament that you know that he played 401 00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:26.759 in just just there was there wasn't a player that was even fifty percent as 402 00:27:26.759 --> 00:27:30.279 good as he was, you know, won the championship, and he thought 403 00:27:30.519 --> 00:27:33.119 this team is going to make a run in the NC Double A tournament. 404 00:27:33.160 --> 00:27:37.200 And then he didn't give one crap about the first round tournament game. And 405 00:27:37.279 --> 00:27:40.440 he wasn't alone in that right, none of them were. And they they 406 00:27:40.480 --> 00:27:42.839 go get blown out by you know, one hundred and fifty points to Buffalo. 407 00:27:42.720 --> 00:27:48.400 That's my point is that you see what he can do, and then 408 00:27:48.519 --> 00:27:52.119 you see that he doesn't a lot of times he doesn't try to do that. 409 00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:55.519 And there's other guys. We're picking on DeAndre because he was here, 410 00:27:55.960 --> 00:27:57.359 but there's other guys at tone and then you'd go around and see it got 411 00:27:57.400 --> 00:28:02.559 like TJ McConnell, who gives one hundred and fifty percent. And because of 412 00:28:02.559 --> 00:28:06.440 that, he's been able to stick in the NBA as long as he has. 413 00:28:07.079 --> 00:28:11.000 And what he played two years, he played two years here, and 414 00:28:11.079 --> 00:28:17.920 that dude is wildcat red and blue right exactly. In fact, party the 415 00:28:18.559 --> 00:28:22.599 gave he gave us the effort. He didn't even have to kiss the chord 416 00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:23.960 at the end, right, No, And he was like, you say, 417 00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:27.200 two and a half years and in the last ten fifteen years, I 418 00:28:27.240 --> 00:28:33.279 think there have been fewer guys more love than him. Yeah, I agree, 419 00:28:33.359 --> 00:28:36.680 I agree. Yeah, Well, thanks for the call, thanks for 420 00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:41.960 listening. As always, guys appreciated the anniversary. Let me go get roses 421 00:28:41.079 --> 00:28:47.160 right now. I've never bring it three chicken wings, one for each year, 422 00:28:48.359 --> 00:28:52.319 but but Don makes it an excellent point that you know, and and 423 00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:56.440 that what really one of the things that just stuck with me with the Sean 424 00:28:56.519 --> 00:29:00.680 Miller time was that there were so many guys that came through here and and 425 00:29:00.039 --> 00:29:03.039 you felt like they don't give one crap about the uniform that they're wearing. 426 00:29:03.079 --> 00:29:06.799 They don't give one crap about, you know, being a wildcat, and 427 00:29:06.839 --> 00:29:08.680 they don't. And yet as he as as Don said, a guy like 428 00:29:10.000 --> 00:29:12.440 t J McConnell, he was actually here three years because he had to sit 429 00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:18.519 out here. But if you, for instance, if you watch that the 430 00:29:18.599 --> 00:29:21.480 highlights of that Florida game, right, it was during the year that he 431 00:29:21.519 --> 00:29:23.880 was out. Who was the first one on the court celebraty he jumped into 432 00:29:23.880 --> 00:29:29.319 somebody's was t J McConnell, Right, He was bought in the minute he 433 00:29:29.400 --> 00:29:33.000 got here. And some of these guys got here and never gave a crap. 434 00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:36.640 It's funny because I can't remember what year it was, but you know, 435 00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:38.400 they would let Luke go to the practices and one day, I think 436 00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:41.599 I asked him, it says, what do you see? What he says, 437 00:29:41.599 --> 00:29:42.680 Well, he says the best players not even playing right now. And 438 00:29:42.720 --> 00:29:48.880 I'm thinking who would that be because they were pretty good, And he said 439 00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:52.279 this kid McConnell. I'm thinking, oh, really this is he just knows 440 00:29:52.279 --> 00:29:55.599 how to play basketball. And then you saw him and he did and then 441 00:29:55.640 --> 00:29:57.440 you did. Those were two Those were Sean Miller's two best games. Yeah, 442 00:29:57.559 --> 00:30:00.240 both of them should have gone to the final and you're talking guys that 443 00:30:00.480 --> 00:30:04.559 Gordon and these guys and Johnson. The best guy was the guy sitting and 444 00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:08.559 he was a kind of just a point guard who just did point guard stuff. 445 00:30:11.480 --> 00:30:14.039 Shoot, who couldn't shoot right, we shot, had a weird shot 446 00:30:14.039 --> 00:30:18.200 and all. But look making tons of money and now probably seventh year now 447 00:30:18.279 --> 00:30:21.400 or something. You root for him. I mean you root for him. 448 00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:26.920 I in the league where the shimmy's not even the league anymore. Uh, 449 00:30:26.400 --> 00:30:30.400 Ashley didn't make it. Stanley Johnson, Sandy Johnson, Sandy Johnson's barely in 450 00:30:30.440 --> 00:30:34.880 the and uh and um and there's another one I'm missing. Just had it 451 00:30:34.920 --> 00:30:38.240 before, he says Stanley. Uh Johnson, the other Johnson guard. We 452 00:30:38.279 --> 00:30:42.200 had him on the show from Phoenix. Yes, uh oh um um um 453 00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:48.920 that one. That one, yeah Johnson from Phoenix. Nick Nick Johnson. 454 00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:52.759 I mean a loaded team that was you know, right on the cusp, 455 00:30:52.039 --> 00:30:56.960 right right. So it's a it's it's it's a weird thing. Um. 456 00:30:56.000 --> 00:31:02.160 You know again, attitude and approach and you know, character and whatever, 457 00:31:02.480 --> 00:31:07.720 all the whatever things build into you know, a guy mentally, you know, 458 00:31:08.319 --> 00:31:14.039 exceeding his physical capabilities. So he makes himself so much better as opposed 459 00:31:14.079 --> 00:31:17.039 to some of these other players who have all the all the talent in the 460 00:31:17.079 --> 00:31:22.920 world that you could ask for, and because of their approach don't ever get 461 00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:25.279 to where you think they had to get to. One of those guys, 462 00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:27.200 and I think he's you know, I can call him us now. My 463 00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:32.000 friend of mine is Khalid, same dude, the dude who could play out 464 00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:36.720 of his mind and when he did he was like unstoppable. But like Damon 465 00:31:36.759 --> 00:31:41.039 said, if he had my gumption to work, he would still be playing 466 00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:44.680 exactly, and he just kind of didn't. And it's when you and you 467 00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:45.880 know, when you think of it like that, you think of how rare 468 00:31:47.480 --> 00:31:51.519 a guy like Michael Jordan was because he had both right, he had all 469 00:31:51.519 --> 00:31:55.000 the physical ability. And there are probably some maybe a few guys. I'm 470 00:31:55.039 --> 00:31:57.480 gonna say, maybe if you guys out there who had more physical talent, 471 00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:04.039 but none who had more physical talent and more and more will Michael Jordan. 472 00:32:04.079 --> 00:32:07.079 I was just gonna use that word will because well, look at look at 473 00:32:07.079 --> 00:32:09.400 Steph, Steph crazy and yeah, dude went to Davidson, was a skinny 474 00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:14.000 little kid. Yeah, blah blah blah. One guy a few I think 475 00:32:14.000 --> 00:32:15.839 I said this to you a while back, maybe a few years ago. 476 00:32:15.839 --> 00:32:19.319 I said to me, how cam Arizona didn't recruit him because he wasn't Steph 477 00:32:19.319 --> 00:32:22.440 Curry. He wasn't that Steph Curry. He talks about work and blah, 478 00:32:22.920 --> 00:32:25.240 like, why didn't New Mexico recruit him? Because he was at that level 479 00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:29.960 amidmajor guy who turned teams into an amazing team. Right, yeah, he 480 00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:31.559 wasn't that Steph Curry. Wasn't. But he's gone to the court and you 481 00:32:31.759 --> 00:32:35.759 watch him lash, you know, in their games the other day, you 482 00:32:35.799 --> 00:32:38.119 know, and it's like he wasn't gonna lose that game under any circumstances. 483 00:32:38.559 --> 00:32:45.759 And he had the capability physically, but also the mental approach, the way, 484 00:32:45.440 --> 00:32:49.559 the work ethic and stuff to be able to put himself out there and 485 00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:52.880 for guys to say, Okay, if he can, I can, you 486 00:32:52.960 --> 00:32:55.759 just don't. It's it's like people are amazed that you you watch golf, 487 00:32:55.920 --> 00:32:59.880 people were amazed how the shots they're hitting, blah blah blah. It's not 488 00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:02.400 like they fell off a turn turn up truck. They've been working this all 489 00:33:02.440 --> 00:33:06.400 their lives, right, you know, they just didn't just oh, this 490 00:33:06.440 --> 00:33:07.440 is what he can do. No, No, they've been doing it since 491 00:33:07.440 --> 00:33:10.039 they were eight, right, right, No, I did you know you 492 00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:15.880 watch the Tiger Woods. I mean his his mental approach was as great as 493 00:33:15.920 --> 00:33:20.440 his physical approach. And that's why he dominated the way he did because nobody 494 00:33:20.839 --> 00:33:23.440 could match either one of those and change the game.

Uh, you know, just you 568 00:38:36.880 --> 00:38:39.119 know wondering if they're you know, there's gonna be a buzz that's uh, 569 00:38:39.159 --> 00:38:44.039 you know, that's uh, you know coming up. And you know, 570 00:38:44.079 --> 00:38:47.280 I like the fact that, um, you know, we're not sitting here 571 00:38:47.280 --> 00:38:51.719 thinking, God if they could you know, only win a couple more games. 572 00:38:51.760 --> 00:38:53.360 I mean, it's just like you feel like they're they're gonna be you 573 00:38:53.360 --> 00:38:55.920 know, it's gonna be fun at the stadium this year, right, Yeah, 574 00:38:57.000 --> 00:39:00.840 you just feel like they're gonna have a team that can win pretty much 575 00:39:00.840 --> 00:39:04.679 every time they go out. Probably you know obviously won't, but they you 576 00:39:04.800 --> 00:39:07.280 just don't feel like, even if usc comes to time that they have no 577 00:39:07.360 --> 00:39:09.719 chance, you liked your chances much more than you Yeah, you know, 578 00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:14.559 you walk into the stadium feeling like you they can win today, even if 579 00:39:14.559 --> 00:39:19.199 it's you know, Oregon or whoever, you know. And we haven't felt 580 00:39:19.199 --> 00:39:22.679 like that in a really, really, really long time, right right, 581 00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:24.719 we all three years after someone, four years before one, a year before 582 00:39:24.719 --> 00:39:28.960 that probably with rich Rod, Yeah, four or five years right, well, 583 00:39:29.079 --> 00:39:30.079 rich Rod. Last year wasn't terrible. They got to a Bowl game, 584 00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:34.079 Yeah, but it was it was it was, it was not pretty, 585 00:39:34.119 --> 00:39:36.239 and the year before it was not good. There was the year before 586 00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:38.519 was the one there they went three and nine. Yeah, but uh but 587 00:39:38.599 --> 00:39:43.400 you know, it's it's like it took it's taking a long time to get 588 00:39:43.440 --> 00:39:45.360 to that. And you know, you know, the person I was talking 589 00:39:45.360 --> 00:39:47.400 to ask me, you know, how many games you think they'll win? 590 00:39:47.440 --> 00:39:50.119 I said, you know, I don't know. I said, you know, 591 00:39:50.119 --> 00:39:52.039 because you know, what what did you say? I said? I 592 00:39:52.079 --> 00:39:55.960 said, I think they need to win six for people to feel like they 593 00:39:57.079 --> 00:39:59.880 kick another step, very possible, and that it's possible that they can do 594 00:40:00.039 --> 00:40:01.320 that. You know, you don't sit there and see their schedule, and 595 00:40:01.360 --> 00:40:05.800 you pointed with six games that could be. But you know, I made 596 00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:07.840 the point that you know they after that, you know, no wins then 597 00:40:07.880 --> 00:40:12.760 one win. They took a big step last year to win five and be 598 00:40:12.840 --> 00:40:15.320 one game short of a Bowl game, you know, including being in u 599 00:40:15.360 --> 00:40:19.039 c l A. But that that this year is like they might only win 600 00:40:19.159 --> 00:40:22.039 one or two more games than they did last year, but that's still a 601 00:40:22.119 --> 00:40:27.599 huge step if they do that, because winning one more game means you go 602 00:40:27.639 --> 00:40:30.760 to a bowl game. And now that's if you're if after the one in 603 00:40:30.880 --> 00:40:32.559 eleven season, if you're the thought that two years later they'd be in a 604 00:40:32.599 --> 00:40:36.760 bowl game, you're somebody would have said, you're you're absolutely not right, 605 00:40:36.960 --> 00:40:42.119 especially at the place where we know where it was near the bottom, right. 606 00:40:43.280 --> 00:40:45.840 Yeah, So I think it's uh, um, I know, I 607 00:40:46.320 --> 00:40:50.079 just I just like the fact that somebody just brought that up. What you 608 00:40:50.199 --> 00:40:52.639 said, Yeah, hey, football, I'm excited about football coming up because 609 00:40:52.639 --> 00:40:55.360 it's uh, you know, it's pretty cool. And then then that same 610 00:40:55.400 --> 00:40:59.679 person went on and said, what the hell with UCLA, let's see. 611 00:41:00.960 --> 00:41:04.199 Yeah, I'm like, you know, it is what it is. You 612 00:41:04.199 --> 00:41:07.840 know, this is the last school year that will be in the same conference 613 00:41:07.880 --> 00:41:12.159 with those two schools. Still, I still don't see, Steve, how 614 00:41:12.280 --> 00:41:15.519 that's gonna work for those guys. Oh, they're gonna take the lumps, 615 00:41:15.920 --> 00:41:17.920 depends what sports. Talking my wins and the losses, I'm talking about just 616 00:41:19.079 --> 00:41:22.039 running their programs in the Big Ten, you know, I mean, they'll 617 00:41:22.079 --> 00:41:27.280 be fine for basketball and football, right those teams Charter they fly, they 618 00:41:27.320 --> 00:41:30.679 go wherever they go, and it's easy. But the other's time about all 619 00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:32.480 the other sports that are gonna have to travel like that, and how that's 620 00:41:32.480 --> 00:41:37.280 gonna work, and whether or not that you know, if after a couple 621 00:41:37.280 --> 00:41:39.760 of years that athletes are gonna, you know, in those sports are gonna 622 00:41:39.760 --> 00:41:45.239 want to keep going there as opposed to plane and you know for schools closer 623 00:41:45.239 --> 00:41:49.199 to home or whatever. You know, I don't know. I just don't 624 00:41:49.199 --> 00:41:53.960 know how they are the travel is going to meet up, work with the 625 00:41:54.039 --> 00:41:59.440 school responsibilities and all this stuff that goes that goes with that. Yeah, 626 00:41:59.639 --> 00:42:02.800 I don't know that that's gonna fly. Yeah, well that's not your problem, 627 00:42:02.880 --> 00:42:06.360 son, It is not. It is not. And I'm rooting for 628 00:42:06.360 --> 00:42:09.880 them to have a horrible time because I'm just that kind of a bitter guy 629 00:42:10.440 --> 00:42:16.079 exactly. That's why I know you I did not touch the games. I 630 00:42:16.159 --> 00:42:20.599 keep telling you that I did not touch the game. No, No, 631 00:42:20.760 --> 00:42:22.159 you know he's not telling he's the truth. Hey, here's the fun. 632 00:42:22.239 --> 00:42:28.480 Here's the fun. Uh Draft Kings. Uh bet that's been boosted by DraftKings. 633 00:42:28.480 --> 00:42:30.920 And I don't know why I'm plugging them because they paid us in a 634 00:42:30.920 --> 00:42:37.159 while. But anyway, because we've gotta keep them, keep Lebron and Steph. 635 00:42:37.880 --> 00:42:42.440 Go ahead, to combine for sixty or more. Points. Oh, 636 00:42:42.519 --> 00:42:47.760 it's over over that's boosted to plus one forty over. I don't know. 637 00:42:49.679 --> 00:42:54.320 I don't think so. I mean, why don't you think so? Because 638 00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:59.480 it's like both teams are, like I have decent defenses. It's like if 639 00:42:59.519 --> 00:43:01.039 it happens in game one. That's one thing I think if you told me 640 00:43:01.119 --> 00:43:04.480 that, if you ask me how many games in the series, they're gonna 641 00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:07.280 be the reason going to score like around thirty five is I'd say, like, 642 00:43:07.880 --> 00:43:09.400 you know, like a couple because like Lebron hasn't been scoring more than 643 00:43:09.440 --> 00:43:15.519 like thirty points. So what is it? One forty one plus one forty 644 00:43:15.599 --> 00:43:20.440 to go but combined over put twenty on it? You're TENA might tena. 645 00:43:20.480 --> 00:43:23.840 We'll go okay, I've just one forty get us twenty forty whatever? What's 646 00:43:23.880 --> 00:43:29.159 that to look it up? About fifty five bucks to find into my account? 647 00:43:29.920 --> 00:43:34.480 We got a call. Get you off the degeneracy over there. You're 648 00:43:34.480 --> 00:43:37.559 on the air and I in the ball. Hey guys, let's it going 649 00:43:37.719 --> 00:43:42.960 George here? Hey George? Uh? One thing that I've been meaning to 650 00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:49.440 call about. But they were giving Dallas. They find Dallas for hanking to 651 00:43:49.599 --> 00:43:53.119 get a better ping pong ball in the draft. Well, if you don't 652 00:43:53.199 --> 00:43:57.760 want people to do that, you have to change the rule. Like you 653 00:43:57.760 --> 00:44:01.440 you're not You shouldn't find people for having a rule. Like everybody takes advantage 654 00:44:01.480 --> 00:44:06.719 of a rule. Like there there's you can steal a base in baseball, 655 00:44:06.880 --> 00:44:09.480 you can, like there's a three point line. That's the rule. Like 656 00:44:09.920 --> 00:44:14.480 if you're gonna, if you're gonna give people a better chance at having a 657 00:44:14.559 --> 00:44:17.119 higher draft pick, you have to change the rule. But if they tank, 658 00:44:19.000 --> 00:44:22.559 they get that that gets taken away from them. And then also in 659 00:44:22.599 --> 00:44:27.480 the show earlier than you, guys they were talking about are is Stephen Curry 660 00:44:27.559 --> 00:44:37.280 and Lebron Lebron James arrivals has more rings and he's beaten Lebron fifteen to seven. 661 00:44:37.320 --> 00:44:43.719 I think it is head to head. Yeah, So I mean that's 662 00:44:43.719 --> 00:44:47.360 a legit rivalry, right, I call it. I mean it's seven and 663 00:44:47.400 --> 00:44:54.360 seven without kd seven seven without Kiddy, which is but yeah, I mean 664 00:44:54.639 --> 00:45:01.079 that I think anyone can come Lebron. I like it. I like that. 665 00:45:01.159 --> 00:45:04.639 I like that thought. I think that is legit because you know, 666 00:45:05.239 --> 00:45:07.760 I mean, who who are the top two players in the League right now, 667 00:45:07.840 --> 00:45:14.199 right from a fan standpoint, probably those two guys, right. I 668 00:45:14.280 --> 00:45:17.519 know you have Joel Embiid, you've got Jannis, you've got KD. But 669 00:45:19.480 --> 00:45:22.719 ask the average fan, not somebody who like you know, reads the you 670 00:45:22.760 --> 00:45:28.000 know, the the analytics and all that stuff every day. An average fan, 671 00:45:28.119 --> 00:45:30.719 like you know, sort of a side fan like me or Steve or 672 00:45:30.760 --> 00:45:34.519 somebody. And you're gonna say Lebron and you're Lebron and Steph are the two 673 00:45:34.599 --> 00:45:37.519 guys that kind of drug? Get your attention? Right? My kids to 674 00:45:37.639 --> 00:45:45.239 know Lebron and Steth and they're girls. They do not know Jannis or Joker. 675 00:45:45.840 --> 00:45:47.840 I don't know, they don't know those people. They don't know them. 676 00:45:47.880 --> 00:45:52.559 They just don't know them. So I think that's really legit. Anyways, 677 00:45:52.559 --> 00:45:57.440 good stuff, Thank you, appreciate it. Colin Moore, So you 678 00:45:57.440 --> 00:46:02.400 can save us later, all right, Steve, we're down. We're down. 679 00:46:02.480 --> 00:46:06.320 So what's the plenty bucks the path forty eight dollars? Okay, so 680 00:46:06.480 --> 00:46:09.440 we'll get a little half twenty four bucks to fourteen puppet Yeah, fourteen dollars 681 00:46:09.440 --> 00:46:13.000 profit? I think So do you are? You like it? I like 682 00:46:13.079 --> 00:46:15.039 it? I like it. This is fun. Yeah, it's a. 683 00:46:15.599 --> 00:46:17.400 It's a fun bat you know, ten bucks, right, and it's like, 684 00:46:17.440 --> 00:46:21.239 okay, now I'm not living or dying with whoever wins the game. 685 00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:23.360 It's like, just score some points. Scores some point, points some point. 686 00:46:23.480 --> 00:46:27.400 I'll get pissed off when you know, Steph goes to the bench for 687 00:46:27.440 --> 00:46:30.320 a breathing I'm gonna get back in twenty nine, twenty nine points and twenty 688 00:46:30.360 --> 00:46:35.000 nine points we were down with. What they can't have is Clay going four 689 00:46:35.079 --> 00:46:38.000 for a thousand in a game. So to add the points because he had 690 00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:44.639 a horrible seven game. Yea horribles heat up early sixteen at thirteen. Yeah, 691 00:46:44.679 --> 00:46:51.360 that starts thirty dollars started. Oh the Lakers game. Umm, I 692 00:46:51.400 --> 00:46:58.320 think it was a seven thirty uh seven h five? Okay, all right, 693 00:46:58.360 --> 00:47:00.920 man, I'll be go home, have some dinner. I've got some 694 00:47:00.000 --> 00:47:01.920 work to do to night. But I'll be able to put that game on 695 00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:08.119 and just track the points. Okay, sixty sixty plus six over sixty over 696 00:47:08.159 --> 00:47:14.400 sixty sixty were sixty plus Let's see what does that mean? Is that over 697 00:47:14.480 --> 00:47:17.519 sixty or can it be sixty and over? Yeah? I don't know. 698 00:47:17.559 --> 00:47:23.000 Everybody's sixty and a half sixty plus sixty plus means I mean sixty one. 699 00:47:23.880 --> 00:47:27.119 Well we'll find out. If we hit sixty and don't win, we'll be 700 00:47:27.159 --> 00:47:31.519 really upset, really upset. All right, So we're good on that little 701 00:47:31.519 --> 00:47:35.760 odds boosts there plus one forty on that. I like it. You still 702 00:47:35.760 --> 00:47:38.880 don't think so right now? Are he's shaking his head? Don't he's already 703 00:47:38.920 --> 00:47:43.480 want one for one and his little He doesn't know anything. You're gonna change 704 00:47:43.480 --> 00:47:45.079 you to kiss of death. Don't want you don't want to take that over. 705 00:47:46.119 --> 00:47:49.000 I don't. I don't. I don't like to think that I have 706 00:47:49.039 --> 00:47:55.000 that much power. But I guess so some of us do, would some 707 00:47:55.199 --> 00:48:00.559 of us do? I again, that was not my fault to Dave last 708 00:48:00.639 --> 00:48:07.519 night. You can't make me not think that. It is not my fault, 709 00:48:07.679 --> 00:48:10.639 not my fault. All right, So there we go. So we're 710 00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:15.159 looking for sixty sixty plus points. Um, who do you think of mbad 711 00:48:15.280 --> 00:48:21.599 is the MVP? Then little guy over there? No, what do you 712 00:48:21.719 --> 00:48:24.000 what do you think of him? No? MBA is the MVP. That's 713 00:48:24.039 --> 00:48:27.000 what he should have won, like you should should have won it. It 714 00:48:27.039 --> 00:48:30.400 shouldn't have been your kids should I was, I was thinking maybe honest because 715 00:48:30.519 --> 00:48:32.320 how the season ended and ended with the best record league. But like in 716 00:48:32.400 --> 00:48:37.199 these individual performances and he plays both sides of the floor, and he's like 717 00:48:37.519 --> 00:48:40.239 quite literally unstoppable, and like he was generally healthy for the whole season. 718 00:48:40.320 --> 00:48:43.360 He deserves it. You know, he's been running up like a couple of 719 00:48:43.400 --> 00:48:46.199 years. Rows Yeah, what do you do you like his game? Or 720 00:48:46.199 --> 00:48:51.719 what do you like about his game? Because I I mean, he's not 721 00:48:51.840 --> 00:48:55.519 KD, but he's not He's also not DeAndre eight. He has a very 722 00:48:55.559 --> 00:48:59.039 good like post game and he can fade away too. Like it's not like 723 00:48:59.119 --> 00:49:02.360 he'll just try to drive to the basket if you if you're like genuinely stopping 724 00:49:02.400 --> 00:49:05.880 him from getting to the basket, he can just turn and shoot or like 725 00:49:05.920 --> 00:49:08.639 pass out. You know, if you supported by like a competent team around 726 00:49:08.719 --> 00:49:13.159 him, then like he can play. You gonna get averages thirty plus points 727 00:49:13.159 --> 00:49:15.960 a game, like fifteen rebounds, Like that's that's how he is. Do 728 00:49:15.960 --> 00:49:21.440 you think he stays with the Sixers his whole career or would you like him 729 00:49:21.440 --> 00:49:23.920 to see him go? I don't it's hard to tell us him now. 730 00:49:24.039 --> 00:49:29.639 I think first person out the Sixers is gonna be Doc. But it's like, 731 00:49:29.639 --> 00:49:32.960 at the same time, if it ever gets bad, like you know, 732 00:49:34.000 --> 00:49:36.480 Harden's aging or whatever, stuff like that, and let's say they still 733 00:49:36.519 --> 00:49:39.239 have Doc rivers, like they're gonna they're gonna want to trade him just because 734 00:49:39.239 --> 00:49:42.519 he gets so much out of it if they know they're not gonnable like win 735 00:49:42.599 --> 00:49:45.960 with a lot of young players around him. I don't think he's gonna leave 736 00:49:45.960 --> 00:49:49.440 anytime soon. But the NBA has been so unpredictable that like, if you 737 00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:53.920 told me five years from now he's on like like the Hornets or something like 738 00:49:53.960 --> 00:49:57.960 just some crazy like I wouldn't be too surprised, just because it's how things 739 00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:02.639 happen. Yeah, all right, oh morning, say oh, here's one. 740 00:50:02.719 --> 00:50:07.119 And I know they've not I've not seen anything that says specifically what was 741 00:50:07.119 --> 00:50:12.639 happening. Did you see that that in Ohio? The casinos in Ohio stopped 742 00:50:12.679 --> 00:50:16.400 taking bets on an Alabama baseball game yesterday and it was really weird. They 743 00:50:16.440 --> 00:50:21.360 said there was some suspicious activity. Oh, it was on Friday, excuse 744 00:50:21.360 --> 00:50:27.800 me, a suspicious activity during an eight to six loss to LSU on Friday. 745 00:50:28.199 --> 00:50:31.400 There's Alabama and everybody's still trying to figure out what was the suspicious activity. 746 00:50:31.840 --> 00:50:35.599 But it was just in Ohio, so it wasn't anybody else. But 747 00:50:35.679 --> 00:50:40.559 they stopped taking bets on those games in baseball and basebook college. First of 748 00:50:40.559 --> 00:50:45.519 all, what kind of a degenerate are you if you're betting on college baseball. 749 00:50:46.480 --> 00:50:51.760 I'm not gonna say anything about college baseball. We talked about the last 750 00:50:51.760 --> 00:50:57.920 week with Pink Pug and uh cornhole cornhole yeah, um, But at one 751 00:50:58.000 --> 00:51:00.840 point a SU was up, was up eight to one, and then the 752 00:51:00.920 --> 00:51:07.559 game got close and they stopped taking bets h and Elise uh, elisee. 753 00:51:07.559 --> 00:51:09.960 You ended up winning the game eight to six. But I don't know what 754 00:51:10.119 --> 00:51:14.840 the over under was or what it was. But they said also there was 755 00:51:14.880 --> 00:51:20.639 some suspicious way dream activity uh in Ohio and they shut it down. That 756 00:51:21.000 --> 00:51:22.559 was the way they you know, the ASU thing happened and all those things. 757 00:51:23.039 --> 00:51:28.760 You know, it's all done by column analytics or whatever. They see 758 00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:32.800 betting trends and stuff like that and stuff gets flagged. But a college baseball 759 00:51:32.840 --> 00:51:37.840 game interesting, Yeah, that would be unless the picture has something to do 760 00:51:37.920 --> 00:51:39.559 with it, because it kind of controls them. How do you shave? 761 00:51:39.719 --> 00:51:43.360 Yeah, I mean how do you shave points a pure walk a bunch of 762 00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:45.159 batters? Yeah, I mean the pictures are the only one who can probably 763 00:51:45.199 --> 00:51:51.639 do that again. Yeah, okay, well, good show kind of today. 764 00:51:51.719 --> 00:51:54.039 We had very only one game we got you know, hey, we 765 00:51:54.119 --> 00:51:58.199 got we got through it, and we we gotta figure out the summer stuff 766 00:51:58.559 --> 00:52:00.320 because the summer starts, we'll have to have some more guests.
