WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:02.720
<v Speaker 1>All right, it's the ben at Skin Show ninety seven

2
00:00:02.759 --> 00:00:07.400
<v Speaker 1>point one, the Eagle. A day of freaking out across Mavland.

3
00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Actually that's been every day since February second. It just

4
00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:14.439
<v Speaker 1>really came to a head. The Mavericks season ended Friday

5
00:00:14.519 --> 00:00:19.239
<v Speaker 1>night in rather humiliating fashion. Is Memphis whooked that ass?

6
00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:22.239
<v Speaker 1>And then Memphis got fed to Oklahoma City and lost

7
00:00:22.239 --> 00:00:23.719
<v Speaker 1>by fifty Did anybody one?

8
00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:24.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

9
00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:25.879
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god? Yeah.

10
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Can you imagine being the Mavericks having to play them

11
00:00:28.920 --> 00:00:33.280
<v Speaker 1>at noon on Sunday after after flying to Sacramento, flying

12
00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:36.399
<v Speaker 1>back to Memphis, flying Oklahoma City. Oh, that would have

13
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:38.920
<v Speaker 1>been ugly. But the season is over. Nico Harrison had

14
00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:41.719
<v Speaker 1>a press conference at one o'clock today on the heels

15
00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:46.200
<v Speaker 1>of three I'd say two explosive articles. One from Tim Cato,

16
00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:48.840
<v Speaker 1>but the one from Tim McMahon was really explosive, and

17
00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:51.600
<v Speaker 1>if you haven't read it, Tim wrote in ESPN that

18
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:55.399
<v Speaker 1>a big division happened between the Mavericks and Dirt Noovinski

19
00:00:55.600 --> 00:01:03.119
<v Speaker 1>after Nico unceremoniously relieved Casey Smith, longtime Gold medal winning

20
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:06.439
<v Speaker 1>head of the medical staff for the Mavericks, who had

21
00:01:06.439 --> 00:01:09.719
<v Speaker 1>been a longtime friend of Dirk Novitski of Jason Kidd

22
00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:13.959
<v Speaker 1>had Luca's trust and he, according to Tim McMahon, fired

23
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:18.159
<v Speaker 1>him right after Casey went to Dirk's Hall of Fame

24
00:01:18.200 --> 00:01:21.040
<v Speaker 1>event and did it over zoom while Casey was caring

25
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:24.599
<v Speaker 1>for his gravely ill mother. This was according to Tim McMahon.

26
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.879
<v Speaker 1>So then this comes out today, Niko does the exit

27
00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:32.319
<v Speaker 1>interview today. The local media has access. I was sitting

28
00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:34.519
<v Speaker 1>there in the room, I had access. I didn't say anything.

29
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:37.280
<v Speaker 1>I just watched it all unfold. But Katie has been

30
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:38.599
<v Speaker 1>playing a bunch of clips from it.

31
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:41.120
<v Speaker 3>Okay, so Dorothy Gentry is a reporter here and then

32
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:43.760
<v Speaker 3>nice lady, right, I love Doring. I did not expect

33
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:46.079
<v Speaker 3>this question come from her though. I thought this is

34
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:46.640
<v Speaker 3>pretty heavy.

35
00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:49.400
<v Speaker 1>The fans are upset, almost hate.

36
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:51.799
<v Speaker 2>I have to say the word are you dealing with that?

37
00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:52.400
<v Speaker 1>One?

38
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:53.079
<v Speaker 3>And then two?

39
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:55.439
<v Speaker 1>Do you understand how they feel?

40
00:01:55.920 --> 00:01:57.920
<v Speaker 3>I think they want to know that you feel their

41
00:01:58.000 --> 00:01:59.959
<v Speaker 3>pain about losing Luca.

42
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:01.239
<v Speaker 4>What can you state to them?

43
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:05.359
<v Speaker 2>Well, when you have twenty thousand people in this stadium

44
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:08.159
<v Speaker 2>chatting fire and NiCl you you really feel it. I

45
00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:11.360
<v Speaker 2>mean it's I use the word awesome, but not in

46
00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:13.759
<v Speaker 2>a positive way like I have to stop it here.

47
00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:16.840
<v Speaker 3>I've never used the word awesome in a not positive way.

48
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:22.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think by definition he's right about the word,

49
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:25.479
<v Speaker 4>but the way we use it in our popular vernacular.

50
00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:28.800
<v Speaker 3>I just went and took a bunch of wiz. I

51
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:31.199
<v Speaker 3>took a whiz and a bunch of blood came out awesome.

52
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:32.840
<v Speaker 3>It's not a good thing.

53
00:02:33.039 --> 00:02:36.280
<v Speaker 1>I think, like if he were to say awe inspiring,

54
00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:38.439
<v Speaker 1>but even that wouldn't connect. I think the word he

55
00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:42.120
<v Speaker 1>would probably rather use as it was overwhelming disapproving.

56
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:43.960
<v Speaker 4>The disapproval is deafening.

57
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, when you have twenty thousand people in this stadium

58
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:50.319
<v Speaker 2>chatting fire and NiCl, you you really feel it. I

59
00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:53.520
<v Speaker 2>mean it's I use the word awesome, but not in

60
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:57.280
<v Speaker 2>a positive way, like you can really feel how they feel. So, yes,

61
00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:01.479
<v Speaker 2>I feel them. How am I doing? I'm good? You know,

62
00:03:01.560 --> 00:03:03.919
<v Speaker 2>I said this last week. God's got me covered. I

63
00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:08.039
<v Speaker 2>have an amazing family and an amazing support group to get

64
00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:11.360
<v Speaker 2>through it. But no, I absolutely feel it. But I'm

65
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:14.639
<v Speaker 2>also you know, my job is to make decisions that

66
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:17.080
<v Speaker 2>I feel in the best interest of this organization, and

67
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:18.719
<v Speaker 2>I got to stand by the decision and some of

68
00:03:18.759 --> 00:03:20.759
<v Speaker 2>them we're gonna be unpopular, and this was clearly one

69
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:22.039
<v Speaker 2>that's unpopular.

70
00:03:22.280 --> 00:03:24.240
<v Speaker 3>Not gonna win anyone over. But that's not the goal

71
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:26.080
<v Speaker 3>of his press conference today, probably right.

72
00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:31.280
<v Speaker 1>I think he has zero intent to quote unquote win

73
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:33.759
<v Speaker 1>anybody over. Oh no, I don't think he thinks that

74
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:34.319
<v Speaker 1>way at all.

75
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:37.719
<v Speaker 4>No, it's he that's not what his that's not how

76
00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:38.240
<v Speaker 4>he rolls.

77
00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:40.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, how about the memes from the game Friday night now,

78
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:42.560
<v Speaker 3>because we can talk about that, the no emotion things

79
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:44.800
<v Speaker 3>get into that at the five o'clock hour. Yeah, just

80
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:48.560
<v Speaker 3>the scene where Anthony Davis gets hurt. ESPN's got a

81
00:03:48.599 --> 00:03:51.560
<v Speaker 3>camera trained on him, all that, the side eye, he

82
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:55.599
<v Speaker 3>side eye. I mean it's like he just he's he

83
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:57.240
<v Speaker 3>wants to be a villain. I mean, he's done a

84
00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:57.759
<v Speaker 3>good job.

85
00:03:58.120 --> 00:03:59.879
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he wants to be a villain.

86
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:03.159
<v Speaker 3>I just think it's either everything that's happened is that.

87
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:06.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he has become the biggest sports villain in the

88
00:04:06.439 --> 00:04:10.039
<v Speaker 4>history of df W, I think. And dude, the guy, yeah,

89
00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:12.719
<v Speaker 4>and and the guy who's probably happiest about all of

90
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:13.560
<v Speaker 4>it is Jerry Jones.

91
00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:15.240
<v Speaker 3>Dude, have a great year.

92
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:18.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean, dude, he was on the hot seat and

93
00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:20.040
<v Speaker 4>then Nico says, I'll take that for you.

94
00:04:20.879 --> 00:04:23.879
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's dude. And also we're three days over

95
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:26.079
<v Speaker 3>the draft and no one's talking about that.

96
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:30.160
<v Speaker 4>Has anybody Has anybody talked to Dumont about what's going

97
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:32.360
<v Speaker 4>to happen in twenty seven, twenty eight, twenty nine and

98
00:04:32.439 --> 00:04:34.240
<v Speaker 4>thirty or whatever when they don't have any of their

99
00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:36.639
<v Speaker 4>first round picks. Has anybody even broke that down to

100
00:04:36.680 --> 00:04:39.759
<v Speaker 4>him at all? This is we built this team around Luca,

101
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:43.199
<v Speaker 4>and then everyone here is because they fit well with Luca.

102
00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:46.319
<v Speaker 4>Then we traded Luca, got six years older, got a

103
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:48.800
<v Speaker 4>player who's always hurt, did not get full return on

104
00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:51.399
<v Speaker 4>the trade, and don't have any of our picks after

105
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:53.360
<v Speaker 4>this little three year window ends.

106
00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:54.959
<v Speaker 3>You know, let's talk.

107
00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:56.839
<v Speaker 4>Let's pick it up later, all right, we'll get back

108
00:04:56.839 --> 00:04:58.639
<v Speaker 4>into a little we'll get back into a little bit later.

109
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.480
<v Speaker 4>Coming up next though, movie talk. Let's talk about the

110
00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:04.079
<v Speaker 4>movie that had everybody buzzing this weekend. That's coming up

111
00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:05.160
<v Speaker 4>next on The Benicin Show.
