<v Speaker 2>Rock the Bank, Rock the KASBA. The Magic were rocking

10
00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:31.600
<v Speaker 2>the Kia Center last night, last game before the All

11
00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:35.240
<v Speaker 2>Star Break. They put the clamps on the tanking injury

12
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:40.320
<v Speaker 2>plague Charlotte Hornets. Magic win one oh two to eighty six.

13
00:00:40.439 --> 00:00:43.840
<v Speaker 2>Plo Bancaro led the Magic. He had twenty four points,

14
00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:47.920
<v Speaker 2>eight rebound, six assists. Anthony Black comes off the bench,

15
00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:52.560
<v Speaker 2>scores eighteen on eight of thirteen shooting from the floor

16
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:58.600
<v Speaker 2>at the fronze eight, Franz Wagner at sixteen point seven rebounds,

17
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:02.119
<v Speaker 2>and the Magic. You know, obviously they should beat the

18
00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:05.799
<v Speaker 2>Charlotte Horners, who I just mentioned are injured and tanking.

19
00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:09.959
<v Speaker 2>But when you look at what's going on, the Magic

20
00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:12.480
<v Speaker 2>have jumped ahead of the Heat and the Hawks. They're

21
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:14.879
<v Speaker 2>now on the seventh spot. They go into the All

22
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:17.560
<v Speaker 2>Star Break with wins in three of their last five games.

23
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Not spectacular, but still playing better. Jalen Suggs is expected

24
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:25.560
<v Speaker 2>to be back after the All Star break, and the

25
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Magic have one of the more favorable schedules following the break.

26
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.560
<v Speaker 2>I believe everything is set up for the Magic to

27
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:36.120
<v Speaker 2>be a five or a six seed. I don't think

28
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:38.840
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna get to a four, which would give them

29
00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:41.040
<v Speaker 2>home court advantage in the first round of the playoffs.

30
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:43.719
<v Speaker 2>But I still think the Magic can make a run

31
00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:47.400
<v Speaker 2>after the break and be in decent playoff position.

32
00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:49.840
<v Speaker 1>There you go, See that's the glass how full I

33
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:52.040
<v Speaker 1>want to hear because I was telling Pat the same thing.

34
00:01:52.359 --> 00:01:55.319
<v Speaker 1>We're going in the break coming off a winy bad

35
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:58.040
<v Speaker 1>win good and he wins a win and then you

36
00:01:58.159 --> 00:01:59.920
<v Speaker 1>get sugs when you come back.

37
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:03.079
<v Speaker 3>Bull dog. How was media day out at Daytona International

38
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:04.040
<v Speaker 3>Speedway yesterday?

39
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:10.039
<v Speaker 2>Obviously all the drivers were there discussing the issues of NASCAR.

40
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:12.800
<v Speaker 2>Talked to your boy Kyle Busch for a little bit.

41
00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy Johnson was there. He's he's a little po that

42
00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:22.319
<v Speaker 2>he has to qualify for the race. Whereas we talked

43
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:25.599
<v Speaker 2>about this the other day, Helio Castrodevez he gets sort

44
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:28.479
<v Speaker 2>of an exemption into the race on this new international

45
00:02:29.280 --> 00:02:33.560
<v Speaker 2>exemption rule that NASCAR has, But Jimmy Johnson said, he

46
00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:37.840
<v Speaker 2>says he expects to qualify for the race. Uh, the one.

47
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:40.479
<v Speaker 2>The one guy talked to Denny Hamlin, who of course

48
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:43.639
<v Speaker 2>has won the race three times. He owns you know,

49
00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:46.240
<v Speaker 2>he owns half that race team with Michael Jordan. He

50
00:02:46.360 --> 00:02:52.159
<v Speaker 2>sort of called out his driver, Bubba Wallace yesterday and said, hey, Bubba,

51
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:55.639
<v Speaker 2>you know runs well for you know, seven eight, ten

52
00:02:55.759 --> 00:02:58.879
<v Speaker 2>races and then he just sort of loses it. He

53
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:02.360
<v Speaker 2>needs to be working insistent this year. I think Bubba's

54
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:05.960
<v Speaker 2>sort of on a hot seat this year for that race.

55
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:07.639
<v Speaker 1>Team camp finished well.

56
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:10.919
<v Speaker 3>The front row is set after last night. Chase Briscoe

57
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:13.240
<v Speaker 3>will be on the poll and then Austin Sindrick will

58
00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:14.280
<v Speaker 3>join them on the front row.

59
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:16.840
<v Speaker 2>Cool. Cool.

60
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:19.400
<v Speaker 3>Then the duels the duels this evening to set the

61
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:20.599
<v Speaker 3>rest of the field.

62
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:24.039
<v Speaker 2>The duels are tonight. I'm curious that there was a

63
00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:27.199
<v Speaker 2>lot of talk yesterday a lot of the reporters, not me,

64
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:29.759
<v Speaker 2>but some of the reporters were asking about you know,

65
00:03:29.840 --> 00:03:33.360
<v Speaker 2>asking the drivers about the you know, the state of NASCAR.

66
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:37.439
<v Speaker 2>You know, TV ratings are still a concern. Fan interest

67
00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:41.639
<v Speaker 2>are still a concern, and I don't know, I don't

68
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:44.479
<v Speaker 2>know what nascars to do. I mean their races or

69
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:47.800
<v Speaker 2>their races. Maybe there's too many of them, maybe some

70
00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:50.319
<v Speaker 2>of them are too long. Is there anything NASCAR can

71
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:54.919
<v Speaker 2>do to increase the TV ratings or the fan interest?

72
00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:57.639
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you guys follow the sport. I was trying

73
00:03:57.680 --> 00:03:58.960
<v Speaker 2>to think, like, what could they do?

74
00:03:59.639 --> 00:03:59.879
<v Speaker 1>Pad?

75
00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:05.280
<v Speaker 3>I think the season is too long, I really do,

76
00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:07.639
<v Speaker 3>you know. I know the hardcore fans love it, but

77
00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:10.680
<v Speaker 3>you know, those who are more casual, Yeah, you might

78
00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:13.039
<v Speaker 3>be hooked for the first few weeks and then you

79
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:15.280
<v Speaker 3>kind of go away and then you may not even

80
00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:18.240
<v Speaker 3>come back until it gets, you know, into the tail

81
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:19.040
<v Speaker 3>end of the season.

82
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Short.

83
00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:22.959
<v Speaker 2>I was, I was thinking about this. I was talking

84
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.519
<v Speaker 2>to Joey Logano yesterday. Joey Logano, who's won three championships,

85
00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:27.759
<v Speaker 2>he's a defending champion.

86
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:32.279
<v Speaker 3>You didn't stare at his hair, did you?

87
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:34.079
<v Speaker 2>No? He had he had his head on. I was

88
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:36.360
<v Speaker 2>gonna ask him about his hair, but I didn't.

89
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:37.680
<v Speaker 3>That was the dog bite.

90
00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:40.040
<v Speaker 1>I was looking for. I said to Pat yesterday, I go,

91
00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:42.720
<v Speaker 1>I hope he asked the hard hitting questions out there

92
00:04:42.759 --> 00:04:45.560
<v Speaker 1>of media day and we get a dog bite that

93
00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:46.480
<v Speaker 1>would have been the one.

94
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:50.160
<v Speaker 2>What did you ask him? No, I was I was

95
00:04:50.199 --> 00:04:52.600
<v Speaker 2>gonna make an observation that, you know, he's a three

96
00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 2>time champion, the ending champion. I think most most fans

97
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:01.839
<v Speaker 2>don't know that much about Joey legana. I think NASCAR

98
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:04.079
<v Speaker 2>is one of their issues is they don't really have

99
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:07.600
<v Speaker 2>a transcendent star, you know what I mean, the guy

100
00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:11.079
<v Speaker 2>who sort of transcends the sport, like Kyle Busch is

101
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:14.000
<v Speaker 2>sort of falling off. He's not really a factor that

102
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:14.680
<v Speaker 2>much anymore.

103
00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:17.000
<v Speaker 1>He's one of the old guys now, I see what

104
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:20.360
<v Speaker 1>he's saying. Though, you know, like there's a face for basketball,

105
00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:21.040
<v Speaker 1>there's a face.

106
00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:24.079
<v Speaker 2>Do you guys know Joey Legan Like I probably could

107
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:26.279
<v Speaker 2>have asked Taco Bob who won the title last year

108
00:05:26.319 --> 00:05:28.120
<v Speaker 2>and he wouldn't have known it was Joey Lagana, right,

109
00:05:28.560 --> 00:05:29.600
<v Speaker 2>tak You're correct.

110
00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:33.800
<v Speaker 3>Joe Joey lived at the Atlanta uh Speedway for a while.

111
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:35.839
<v Speaker 2>He did.

112
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, what was their reasoning when when he was

113
00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:40.759
<v Speaker 1>just getting into the race.

114
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:42.920
<v Speaker 3>His family like moved down there and that's where he

115
00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:45.720
<v Speaker 3>you know, he built built things up from there and

116
00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:49.600
<v Speaker 3>away he went. I think it was Atlanta anyway. Yeah,

117
00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:52.879
<v Speaker 3>I thought lived in the speedy He lived at the speedway.

118
00:05:53.439 --> 00:05:58.439
<v Speaker 3>Like yeah, Baker Mayfield, Hey, real quick?

119
00:05:58.519 --> 00:06:01.199
<v Speaker 1>Is Baker moving back into Tampa to the to the

120
00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:06.319
<v Speaker 1>stadium again his old commercials? Those are the best, dude.

121
00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:10.639
<v Speaker 2>Speaking of press conferences, Scott Frost held a press conference.

122
00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:15.040
<v Speaker 2>Emerged from a ten week just workfest where he had

123
00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:18.000
<v Speaker 2>the name of coaching staff, had to brought in like

124
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:22.519
<v Speaker 2>forty new players via the transfer portal and high school

125
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:26.720
<v Speaker 2>recruiting again, hired a coaching staff. It's gonna be interesting

126
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.000
<v Speaker 2>to see how this team pans out in the first year.

127
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.160
<v Speaker 2>I hope fans are gonna give Scott Frost a little

128
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:34.680
<v Speaker 2>bit of patience and a little.

129
00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:36.160
<v Speaker 3>Bit you have to you have to.

130
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:38.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's gonna be a process. I mean, he took

131
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:43.000
<v Speaker 2>over a program. The reason Gus Malzon bailed is because

132
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:45.839
<v Speaker 2>he knew it wasn't gonna be fixed in one year.

133
00:06:46.040 --> 00:06:48.000
<v Speaker 2>So we'll see what happens.

134
00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:51.000
<v Speaker 3>Hold talk, have you been following the four Nations face off?

135
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:54.360
<v Speaker 3>The opening game was last night it's Canada took care

136
00:06:54.399 --> 00:06:56.000
<v Speaker 3>of Sweden in a four to three.

137
00:06:55.800 --> 00:06:57.279
<v Speaker 2>Fold Which sport are we talking about?

138
00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:00.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't play.

139
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:04.040
<v Speaker 3>Tonight, the United States opens up their four Nations face

140
00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:05.439
<v Speaker 3>off against Finland bull dog?

141
00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:07.839
<v Speaker 2>Is this is this the NHL?

142
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:10.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they're on break while they do this four Nations

143
00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:12.079
<v Speaker 3>face off tournament.

144
00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:14.399
<v Speaker 2>And I thought while they're on break, like, is that

145
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:15.439
<v Speaker 2>they're All Star game?

146
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:19.319
<v Speaker 3>Now? No, this is this is an inaugural thing here,

147
00:07:19.399 --> 00:07:22.879
<v Speaker 3>and uh, it's interesting. I get the players representing these

148
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:25.360
<v Speaker 3>four nations and it's for bragging rights.

149
00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:31.160
<v Speaker 2>But this is in replacing their All Star game that

150
00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:31.639
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

151
00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:33.079
<v Speaker 3>I know this is.

152
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:36.759
<v Speaker 2>They don't they don't have an All Star game, right, Well.

153
00:07:36.600 --> 00:07:40.720
<v Speaker 3>They had the the three on three stuff for years, right.

154
00:07:42.839 --> 00:07:44.360
<v Speaker 2>Lens, I'm asking you, I don't know.

155
00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:45.240
<v Speaker 3>That's a good question.

156
00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:46.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't follow this.

157
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:47.959
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. I don't know the answer to that.

158
00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:53.199
<v Speaker 2>But this is it's actually not a bad idea in

159
00:07:53.240 --> 00:07:55.240
<v Speaker 2>place of the All Star Game. In fact, I think

160
00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:57.120
<v Speaker 2>the NBA should do the same thing. I think the

161
00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:00.920
<v Speaker 2>NBA should have the sort of like the Rider, the

162
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:05.399
<v Speaker 2>American NBA All Stars against the International NBA All Stars.

163
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:10.079
<v Speaker 2>Interesting that would create some interest, all.

164
00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:11.360
<v Speaker 3>Right, Bulldog. You'll find him over on AM seven forty
