00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.839
It's the downbeat on ninety seven to
one, A freak good morning, metropol.

2
00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:11.240
So everyone's doing well on this Monday
morning. You know, it's a

3
00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:16.079
day that quite frankly should be a
national holiday. We should all have it

4
00:00:16.160 --> 00:00:21.960
off as we all gathered around a
TV, either a loon or with loved

5
00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:27.960
ones or with friends at parties,
not me, and you can enjoy the

6
00:00:28.039 --> 00:00:34.799
day going to work. Many of
you may be hungover this about the new

7
00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:39.479
Beyonce country song which she released last
night. More on that seven thirty and

8
00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:45.079
ads Corporate America shield out a lot
of money? Was it worth it?

9
00:00:46.640 --> 00:00:49.399
You're going, how much do I
make it my job? Well, my

10
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:53.840
company just spent a seven million dollars
on a commercial that wasn't that funny,

11
00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:58.320
So clearly they have some money in
the budget. A lot of people probably

12
00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:03.319
think of that. But let's dive
into a couple other sporting items from the

13
00:01:03.319 --> 00:01:19.840
weekend in Sports at seven now Sports
seven. Even if you didn't tear it

14
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:25.920
up at a party and drink all
day yesterday, there's the super Bowl hangover

15
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:32.599
is real just mentally, it's just
mentally taxing tired. Yes, it is

16
00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:36.120
a long day. You can't take
a break from it now, especially you

17
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:41.319
know if you because everything it offers. There's certain times okay, commercial if

18
00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:45.640
you're watching it live, or if
you wanted to, like what I love

19
00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:49.879
to do during NFL games is get
about an hour behind and just blast through

20
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:53.239
commercials and halftime. You want to
see all the commercials. You want to

21
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:56.799
see the halftime show. You feel
like if you get up, you're gonna

22
00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:00.079
miss something, and that's that's the
case. And if your eyes are on

23
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:05.280
something for four plus hours, it's
a lot. Man. No, it

24
00:02:05.319 --> 00:02:13.240
absolutely is watching the Irishmen, and
the first half really was yeah right,

25
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:15.719
okay, So if you're a MAVs
fan, we are the home of the

26
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:19.479
MAVs. We'll get to you in
about seven or eight minutes, all right,

27
00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:23.520
so get ready. We had some
new acquisitions. Might have one of

28
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:27.560
those new acquisitions on the show later
this week, possibly two more games before

29
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:31.680
the All Star Break. MAVs in
a second. The Waste Management Open in

30
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:39.520
Phoenix. Scottsdale Right Scottsdale is one
of the more fun golf tournaments of the

31
00:02:39.599 --> 00:02:46.479
year. It is known for being
party atmosphere, but this year they had

32
00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:51.560
bad weather, tons of rain,
mud, a lot of problems, and

33
00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:54.680
they usually time it out great.
We're on Sunday, the thing ends between

34
00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:58.000
four and five, and then you
can flip it on over to the Super

35
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:04.159
Bowl right before the pregame festivities get
going. Not the nine analysts on a

36
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:08.599
desk like national anthem. A game
on it's usually timed out perfectly. Didn't

37
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:13.039
work that way yesterday because they had
delays and they were just trying to get

38
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:15.719
it done because they had a bunch
of weather problems. This is from a

39
00:03:15.719 --> 00:03:21.400
tweet from Michael mceew and he is
not my friend up at one Star,

40
00:03:21.479 --> 00:03:27.199
but he is a guy from the
bunkerd podcast, the deputy editor of Bunkard.

41
00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:30.680
He had a big tweet. The
Phoenix Open has massively jumped the shark

42
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:35.199
this week. It's straddled the fine
line for several years now, but for

43
00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:38.039
several years now, but how anybody
can read all this below from the past

44
00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:42.680
few days and recognize it as a
golf tournament is beyond me. The organizers

45
00:03:42.719 --> 00:03:46.840
have lost control and then he's got
a bulleted list. Spectator injured following from

46
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:52.520
grandstand, fans filmed fighting with one
another, organizers having to close the gates,

47
00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:58.080
temporary ban on booze sales commentators joining
in the booing on sixteen. I

48
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:01.560
actually thought that was kind of funny. One player branding the event an S

49
00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:08.120
show. H what was it?
Who had on? Young Ben? Been

50
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:11.680
hung on? Yeah, been on, been on? Called it an S

51
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:16.360
show. Zach Johnson confronting spectators.
What is Zak Johnson in that? The

52
00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:24.279
sand angel on sixteen and fans too
drunk to stand? Amazing guys being unable

53
00:04:24.279 --> 00:04:27.279
to control You see any of this, that's a lot of it. Holy

54
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:33.839
mackerel. We had guy in a
front row on sixteen and borat Bikini incredible,

55
00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:40.040
which is just any anytime the bar
at Bikini makes an appearance, so

56
00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:45.600
good, I get it. There's
golf, there's there's opposing sides where you

57
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:49.800
have the old guard that thinks it
is a dignified man's game that needs to

58
00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:55.279
play with a modicum of decorum,
and then over here you got no man.

59
00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:58.480
You you old school dudes, need
to loosen up and have some fun,

60
00:04:58.560 --> 00:05:01.839
make golf fun again. There's got
to be a place in the middle.

61
00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:05.959
Well, the wasted management open is
not in the middle. Is at

62
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:11.120
least it wasn't this year that was
the most unhinged golf event you will ever

63
00:05:11.160 --> 00:05:14.199
see in your life. It's important. I think it's important to say this.

64
00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:17.839
Last week was so bad for the
PGA Tour because they had weather issues

65
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:24.800
at Pebble Beach, could not play
Sunday, and directly combating that was the

66
00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:30.279
Live Tour in Mexico and John Rahm, Brooks, Koepka, Dustin Johnson.

67
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.399
Now, all these big names who
were on the tour who left, and

68
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:36.399
a lot of PGA Tour people who
had never even given Lived much of a

69
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:40.800
shot went, jeez, my Pebble
Beach cat taken away. I guess I

70
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:44.279
will flip it over to Live and
they watched it. So Live this week

71
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:49.319
is in Vegas and they're doing their
thing, but Waste Management has the headlines

72
00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:54.879
because of this. It was pretty
good tournament. You had some big names

73
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:59.319
up contending as well, and I
didn't hear much about the Live tournament this

74
00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:02.480
week. Everything in the golf world
is about the Waste Management Open, and

75
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:08.839
that's what they need. So I'm
okay with what happened. Now, I

76
00:06:08.879 --> 00:06:11.279
want to play you this quip from
a bartender first, and then Mike,

77
00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:14.959
I'm gonna let you have at it
here. But this bartender his name is

78
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:19.399
Dustin Williamson, and he's reacting to
a post on TikTok where this drunk girl

79
00:06:19.560 --> 00:06:25.160
is going, why did you guys
stop sarving out? He was how drunk

80
00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:27.639
she sounds, and that he is
a bartender. He's like, I'll explain

81
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:30.439
to you what happened. The whole
waste man just stops aroun alcohol and I

82
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.759
need someone at home to tell me
why. As somebody that was bartending today

83
00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:35.240
when they told us to stop serving
alcohol, let me tell you what we

84
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:39.279
heard. So around one thirty,
when we were extremely busy, we were

85
00:06:39.279 --> 00:06:42.519
told by our boss to stop serving
alcohol. The reason being was because the

86
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:46.399
Scotts Sale Police Department in the Scotts
Sale Fire Marshall told us to stop and

87
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:49.279
they stopped letting people in because there
was almost a half a million people on

88
00:06:49.319 --> 00:06:53.160
the course at that one time,
and the security that we're supposed to be

89
00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:58.040
checking tickets at the gate just said
this had started letting everybody in without checking

90
00:06:58.079 --> 00:07:00.120
tickets. So people were getting in
for free. People were getting into vip

91
00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:03.600
boxes for free where it's all you
can drink, and eventually everybody in the

92
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:06.800
VIP boxes are like, ah it, we'll just serve everybody no matter what,

93
00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:11.279
and so everybody's getting extremely hammered.
And on top of that, the

94
00:07:11.319 --> 00:07:15.519
behavior was just too out of control
for them to manage with half a million

95
00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:17.240
people there. So when they told
us to stop serving, we just stood

96
00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:19.240
around and hoped that they were going
to say, okay, we can serve

97
00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:21.680
now in like a half hour,
hopefully some people will get out, but

98
00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:26.560
that never happened. After standing around
for over two hours, they eventually said

99
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:30.279
we're done. We want everybody out. So everybody that was in general admission

100
00:07:30.279 --> 00:07:33.040
and not in a VIP skybox they
ended up leaving because they couldn't buy food,

101
00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:35.680
they couldn't buy non alcoholic drinks,
and they couldn't buy alcoholic drinks.

102
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:39.720
So there's really no point to be
there because who cares about golf, right,

103
00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:43.120
And so that's what ended up happening. There was way too many people

104
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:45.879
there for them to manage the situation, and so they thought it was best

105
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:48.360
to just clear everybody out before stuff
got really out of hand. See y'all

106
00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:53.720
next year. Keep in mind,
keep in mind, this man is not

107
00:07:53.879 --> 00:08:03.000
describing Lollapalooza. Yeah, he's describing
a peach a tour event. Golf.

108
00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:09.040
That's incredible. I like, I
like that this thing has an identity.

109
00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:13.360
I mean they kind of casually call
it the People's Open. It's a party,

110
00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:16.399
but it may have I don't like, not for me. I don't

111
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:20.480
care in all sports. I want
chaos. I don't care if you.

112
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:24.199
I mean, I guess you shouldn't
yell in someone's backswing, which I know

113
00:08:24.279 --> 00:08:28.360
happened to Speet on eighteen as he's
you suck close to contention, Yeah,

114
00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:31.120
and he finishes his follow through and
points to the guy you know, like

115
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:35.320
that's him, and then the ball
soars through the air and lands pin high

116
00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:41.159
ten feet perfect shotten too right,
Yeah, exactly, So I think it's

117
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:43.000
funny to watch from afar. I
don't have much Christine asked. He's like,

118
00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:45.879
would you want to go to this? I'm like, no, I

119
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:48.080
don't want to be in all that. Now if you gave me a sweet

120
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:52.240
ticket on sixteen, like I knew
where I you know, but to get

121
00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:56.759
in the mix. And these bastards
wait until seven fifteen when they open the

122
00:08:56.759 --> 00:09:00.559
gates. But they're there for four
hours waiting and probably pound drinks too.

123
00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:03.720
Such college kids, right, yeah, and no, I don't know that

124
00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:05.159
any of them really care about golf. And I don't care that they don't

125
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:09.720
care about golf. I like that
it's a party. But like the PGA

126
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:13.399
Tour is going to embrace the sixteenth
hole. I mean, the logo for

127
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:16.120
the tournament is the little coliseum they
have on sixteen. You know, it's

128
00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:20.000
dude all day Saturday. It's funny, and I think this is correct.

129
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:26.080
They showed every t shot on sixteen
with Kevin Kisner and Smiley Kaufman like commentating

130
00:09:26.120 --> 00:09:30.080
and booing and yelling and throwing footballs
in the crowd, so they're like full

131
00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:33.399
embracing this thing. I don't think
they showed one shot on seventeen or eighteen,

132
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:37.320
yeah, which are cool holes,
and seventeen is a driveable part four

133
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:43.600
like awesome, tournament deciding hole,
and they fully embrace the chaos of sixteen

134
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:46.080
and then also with the other side
of their mouth say oh, it's gone

135
00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:50.279
too far and all this. Yeah, and it's like I haven't you know,

136
00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:52.679
there's a few players who are mad
about it. I think most people,

137
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:54.720
most of the players, I think
understand like this week's too you know,

138
00:09:56.120 --> 00:09:58.039
this week, yeah, and if
you don't want to do it,

139
00:09:58.120 --> 00:10:00.799
you don't have to play that tournament
and had a huge this year though,

140
00:10:00.879 --> 00:10:03.679
so you know, No, he
had a smaller person, but last year

141
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:05.960
had a big person. Yeah.
It had a smaller purse this year.

142
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:09.960
Yeah, eight million bucks versus last
year which was twenty And that is what

143
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:15.360
brings the boys to the yard.
Now you thought it was a milkshake.

144
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:18.240
No, no, no, it's
a big purse. Former Ryder Cup captain

145
00:10:18.519 --> 00:10:26.840
Zach Johnson freaking Zach who Mikey and
I just can't stand him. He got

146
00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:30.399
it to it with a guy.
Look, this is short, but it's

147
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:33.440
kind of funny. Somebody said it, I'm just sick of it. Tut

148
00:10:33.559 --> 00:10:41.679
up. The guy goes, I
didn't grow up. That's the other guy

149
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:43.440
who told Zact to grow up?
Okay, what was the circumstance. He

150
00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:48.840
was talking in his back swing,
and look, it ain't the worst things

151
00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:54.799
that were happening in people's backswings.
There were fights, there were mud slides,

152
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:58.720
there were drug guys just hammered who
were going down and just sliding down

153
00:10:58.759 --> 00:11:03.120
these hills and the mud. One
of my favorite videos was the dude that

154
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:07.879
took it upon himself to collect like
I don't know five thousand plastic cups.

155
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:13.360
Cups Snake build a three hundred foot
tower to the third level with this thing.

156
00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.600
It must have weighed one hundred pounds. And he's trying to hold this

157
00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:22.559
thing and it falls over and lands
on a promo table and knocks a bunch

158
00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:26.519
of crap off of it. It
was just chaos Cupsnake. As they're building

159
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:30.279
it, people are just throwing their
cups over to them and cheering for Cupsnake

160
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:35.879
grow. But if you're there watching
it, you're going, hell, yeah,

161
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:37.440
this is awesome, But say,
how longer to make that snake grow?

162
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:41.840
Like it's so stupid, but it's
great, and it's always on Super

163
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:46.879
Bowl week like it's it's it's kind
of perfect. They needed it, and

164
00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:52.240
I hope they understand that they needed
that tiger back. This week they have

165
00:11:52.279 --> 00:11:56.679
a chance to kind of right back
up because live for a for a week

166
00:11:56.720 --> 00:12:00.600
there had pulled ahead of them.
You know, back to Cup Snake guy

167
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:05.000
real quick. I love the when
when somebody drunk in a big crowd is

168
00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:07.919
doing something that is getting the favor
of the crowd and they're cheering him on,

169
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:13.080
and then when they lose interest,
they always try to keep going and

170
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:16.360
everybody's like, Okay, we get
it, and they're still I'm not done

171
00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:20.679
yet. It's like you you should
wrap it up, cup snake man.

172
00:12:22.279 --> 00:12:26.519
So I play. I love prize
picks, but I play some DraftKings too

173
00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:31.759
always, and honestly, I don't
do well. Like I told you,

174
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:35.679
gambling gambling luck doesn't bend my way
too often. Draft kis is getting harder.

175
00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:41.480
It's all hard, and people put
in like forty teams, you know,

176
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:45.919
and then just tweak golfers. So
it's really hard to just win any

177
00:12:45.960 --> 00:12:48.879
money or or do well with it. But I entered the twenty five dollars

178
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:54.559
they're million dollar kind of tournament,
right, Forty seven thousand people in this

179
00:12:54.639 --> 00:13:00.120
thing, and I was in the
top one hundred all day Saturday and Sunday

180
00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:05.480
with a fairly realistic chance of winning
it, which would have been two hundred

181
00:13:05.559 --> 00:13:09.000
thousand dollars. Really, I've never
been in this position before, So I

182
00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:13.279
was locked into this damn thing,
staring at at Tom Hogy and Daniel Berger,

183
00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:18.279
who are nowhere near the leaders,
but please make that putt. And

184
00:13:18.679 --> 00:13:22.480
I ended up doing very well.
I won five hundred dollars. I finished

185
00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:28.000
in sixty first place out of forty
seven thousand. But to watch Attorney like

186
00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:31.559
that, it was real different because
I mean I had Scheffler, I had

187
00:13:31.639 --> 00:13:35.200
Nick Taylor, the guy ultimately won
the thing. I had Kurt Kittayama,

188
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:39.679
who are all near the top of
the leader board, Wyndham Clark who biffed

189
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:43.480
it on Sunday. But what you're
dealing with, make that putt knock that

190
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:48.240
stiff and you make hundreds of dollars
when you're kind of in this top one

191
00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:52.600
hundred. I think the highest I
got was like twelfth place for a minute,

192
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:56.440
and I was winning two five hundred
dollars and I'm like, oh my

193
00:13:56.679 --> 00:14:00.639
god, but a couple breaks,
and I mean it wasn't the realm.

194
00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:03.200
I mean I was in my head
doing the two hundred thousand dollars. Why

195
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:09.240
I get about one forty after taxis
you can probably pay off my house,

196
00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:11.440
but that's credit cards is gone,
a car gone, a chunk to the

197
00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:16.679
house, and a vacation because of
these idiots golfing surrounded by drunkards with cups

198
00:14:16.759 --> 00:14:22.039
make cupstakes guys. The amount of
people like just and they all look like

199
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:26.120
college frat bros. You're right,
just walking with a cup in their hand

200
00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:31.799
and they just can't control their body
and they like two steps back and regain

201
00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:37.159
their balance and they start walking again, and just you know, the loss

202
00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:39.639
of physics and gravity. That's what
they're doing. The lean, the gangster

203
00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:43.799
lean that those guys are doing,
it's unbelievable. They look like me the

204
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:46.159
first time I ever went to New
Orleans. Yeah, like at four in

205
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:52.720
the morning, I'm fine here,
just walking around in a figure eight.

206
00:14:52.000 --> 00:14:58.440
Yes, yeah, one shoe,
one crop coming off, yeah, shortened

207
00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:03.480
them shorts, yeah, yeah,
we know you MAVs. Yes, mad

208
00:15:03.840 --> 00:15:07.039
god what was that. So they
start out and they get their little starting

209
00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:11.159
lineup, and then six minutes in
here comes PJ. Washington and Daniel Gafford

210
00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:16.240
together and Luca decides, I'm gonna
throw a hell Mary to Daniel Gafford and

211
00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:20.120
watch him go get it. Luca
threw it oop to Daniel Gafford, turned

212
00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:22.000
around and threw his hands up in
the air before the oop it was even

213
00:15:22.039 --> 00:15:26.440
completed. Daniel Gafford had nineteen points. PJ. Washington had fourteen points.

214
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:31.720
The Mavericks smoked the very very good
Oklahoma City Thunder by thirty five points.

215
00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:35.759
Oh my god, they saved it. They may have just saved it and

216
00:15:37.000 --> 00:15:41.600
we may win the NBA Champion.
Like, I'm not gonna do the overreact

217
00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:45.440
to one. But that is scary, and honestly, just because of the

218
00:15:45.519 --> 00:15:48.240
names Luke and Kyrie, it was
a little scary for other teams potentially in

219
00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:52.360
the playoffs. Look, I don't
know if it's gonna look just like that,

220
00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:56.200
but they beat it's because it's the
Okac Thunder. It doesn't feel like

221
00:15:56.240 --> 00:15:58.799
the best team in the West,
and I don't know if they are.

222
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:03.120
I mean the right now, the
Nugget they're behind technical. They were Timber

223
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:07.879
one Saturday, which is another weird
team to think the best of the West

224
00:16:07.000 --> 00:16:08.919
is, Oh, is it the
Tea Wolves, Is it the Thunder?

225
00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:12.120
No, it's probably the Clippers,
and probably the Nuggets still and maybe even

226
00:16:12.159 --> 00:16:15.279
the Suns. But if it was
one of those teams, if that was

227
00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:21.080
the Nuggets that you just want beat
by forty and scored almost one fifty on

228
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:26.039
and did it in just pure fashion
with it your new acquisitions doing exactly what

229
00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:30.519
they were brought in to do,
like meshing perfectly with the guys that we

230
00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:33.759
had. That's a dream day.
That was so fun and I'm so psyched

231
00:16:33.759 --> 00:16:38.440
for tonight. Tonight it's the Wizards
or Wizards A're gonna smoke them. I'm

232
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.240
going Wednesday night, hopefully Wimby Place, it's the Spurs. And then you

233
00:16:42.279 --> 00:16:45.559
get All Star break, which a
little bit of time for these guys to

234
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:48.240
get settled, oh, find a
place to live, unpack their bags,

235
00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:52.799
and just chill for a minute.
Like so I love that, and then

236
00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:56.960
I kind of feel like it's on. That's the happiest Luca has looked in

237
00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:00.200
a long time. Yeah, you
know what I thought. I like about

238
00:17:00.360 --> 00:17:03.599
excuse me, I like about the
Oh god, I like about the moves.

239
00:17:04.440 --> 00:17:07.519
And I remember us talking about this, I think early last week that

240
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:12.680
we feel like if one out of
the twelve, if one dude is not

241
00:17:12.880 --> 00:17:18.680
playing for the MAVs, it knocks
them off the tracks. It just it

242
00:17:18.279 --> 00:17:23.039
completely just makes them have to reconsider
their rotations. And Bobby Crawler brought this

243
00:17:23.160 --> 00:17:27.319
up from the MAVs when we had
him on discussing these moves. He said,

244
00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:32.160
what this does is it does He
agreed with that, you know,

245
00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:33.880
he agreed. I remember him saying
that it's like, yeah, if one

246
00:17:33.920 --> 00:17:37.039
guy is out, he just throws
the rotations out. Of out of sync.

247
00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:41.720
This shorees that up man. Yes, they are strong from top to

248
00:17:41.079 --> 00:17:44.960
bottom now, And yeah, you
don't have to have Tim Hardaway giving you

249
00:17:45.039 --> 00:17:48.559
twenty points, don't. You don't
have to have Josh Green giving you something

250
00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:52.920
every night. Max, he doesn't
have to play twenty minutes. And you're

251
00:17:52.960 --> 00:17:55.160
not Kean Pile doesn't have to play
at all. I mean, you're not

252
00:17:55.200 --> 00:18:00.680
counting on the guys that they brought
in to the as three point go they

253
00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:03.799
go, yeah, well, and
you're not gonna have that as starters,

254
00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:07.200
right, you know. I mean
Josh Green might be worthy of being a

255
00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:10.519
starter. Probably is that dude's kind
of losing his head. But Tim Hardaway

256
00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:12.680
is like a dream person off the
bench, yes, to come in and

257
00:18:12.759 --> 00:18:17.599
just pop and Max he is too. And there's a couple of things they

258
00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:19.920
did, which is one characteristic,
sorry Kevin, that one characteristic. If

259
00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:25.680
you remember, the twenty eleven team
had was a very very good second team.

260
00:18:25.759 --> 00:18:30.160
Oh my god, Yes, this
getting deeper, taking pressure off of

261
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:33.119
role players. And then there's a
couple of things they did, like Luke

262
00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:36.480
and Kyrie can play together, Yes, they play together a lot of the

263
00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:38.839
game, but there are times when
one of them's out and it's the other

264
00:18:38.839 --> 00:18:44.839
guy's job to handle it. And
they had Kyrie just kind of leading the

265
00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:48.759
second team the other day, just
for a few minutes at a time.

266
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:52.559
But you're sitting there and you go, Okay, Kyrie's out there with the

267
00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:56.759
bench guys now and he's cooking and
they're cooking, And how cool would that

268
00:18:56.799 --> 00:19:00.759
be if you almost have like two
teams. This is like almost like youth

269
00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:03.759
basketball where you just kind of all
right, we're gonna take these five out

270
00:19:03.759 --> 00:19:08.480
and put these five in. Now, you get because Kyrie would be perfect

271
00:19:08.559 --> 00:19:12.319
to mentor those guys and just run
in the second group and at the end

272
00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:15.039
of the game, your best five
out there, no matter what, huz

273
00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:19.920
so good. You want your second
team to be able to beat over half

274
00:19:21.000 --> 00:19:25.440
the teams in the NBA. That's
a that's a sign of a damn strong

275
00:19:26.599 --> 00:19:32.000
lineup. It might be like cheating, letting Luca throw balls up and having

276
00:19:32.039 --> 00:19:34.599
these big boys dunk it because all
he's really had is Lively, and Lively

277
00:19:34.680 --> 00:19:38.640
is still getting his feet wet and
figuring out where the hell the bathroom is

278
00:19:38.680 --> 00:19:41.960
in this arena. He's like teenage
part of it, and he's been the

279
00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:45.480
guy. Yeah, but when you
add a couple of bets who can kind

280
00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:49.400
of do the same thing, specifically
Gafford in that case, I mean Luca's

281
00:19:49.440 --> 00:19:56.319
options. Guys who can expand defensive
questions have to expand and stay on their

282
00:19:56.319 --> 00:20:00.119
heels just a little bit. If
you have one pound of weight backward on

283
00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:03.599
your heels that was normally forward to
defend Luca, that's enough for him to

284
00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:07.359
just kill you if he wasn't gonna
kill you anyway. Move Derrick Jones Junior

285
00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:12.039
to the second Union. That's the
second unit because he Gafford and Lively in

286
00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:15.359
PJ. Washington. Now, like
your guys who can actually jump and Josh

287
00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:18.799
Green I guess too, but you
didn't have many people who could even jump

288
00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:23.599
in the air. You have that
now. I'm not I swear to god.

289
00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:30.279
I don't think I'm overreacting. Official
contender dude, I think social and

290
00:20:30.279 --> 00:20:33.680
I don't want to overdo just the
one game. But first first taste of

291
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:37.440
that, that dish was so damn
good. And they're gonna They're faired by

292
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:41.519
fourteen and a half points tonight.
The Wizards have nine wins and forty something

293
00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:45.279
lost. Is they're one of the
worst teams in basketball, they'll cover that,

294
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:48.839
they'll cover that. Let's go it's
fun tonight here on the Freak,

295
00:20:48.960 --> 00:20:55.119
MAVs Whiz be there and then MAVs
Spurs Wednesday, and then the All Star

296
00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:57.720
Break. But lightning fast because I
listened to the first half of that game

297
00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:02.240
on n side the Freak, the
Home of the Mavericks and Doctor TiO.

298
00:21:02.279 --> 00:21:04.920
Sorry, I'll show Inside Sports Medicine. Yeah, and Coop is awesome.

299
00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:08.400
Goop's great. He's the best,
you know, like we have Nadelle,

300
00:21:08.559 --> 00:21:11.920
like we have Sham, like we're

301
00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:15.759
