Speaker 1: Ben and Skin Show ninety seven point one The Eagle.
Speaker 1: You know, we like to give away things on this show,

Speaker 1: like seven minutes ago he plays pickleball every morning with
Speaker 1: the same person. Who is that person? The third person
Speaker 1: that can tell us that with your name, phone number,
Speaker 1: email address, you are going to win those tickets. Also,
Speaker 1: Ben forgot to mention Rip Toby Keith. But right now
Speaker 1: it's time for this.
Speaker 3: Book is Track.
Speaker 2: Another edition of things is.
Speaker 1: Tracking, all right, Cooper Flag was introduced to the Metroplex
Speaker 1: this morning. Now, I'm sure MAVs you tube streamed it
Speaker 1: and there's tons of media as you can imagine, So
Speaker 1: if you haven't seen it yet, I know there's news
Speaker 1: clips going around and all this sort of stuff, and
Speaker 1: so you will see all of it. But let me
Speaker 1: just say the big takeaway, and I can't stop thinking
Speaker 1: about all of this. This guy was up there and
Speaker 1: he's basically one year older than my son that works
Speaker 1: at an ice cream shop once every three weeks and
Speaker 1: back talks me. And he's up there and he's answering
Speaker 1: questions in just unbelievable fashion. He's not you know, it's
Speaker 1: not like he's dropping gems with what he says. But
Speaker 1: he's articulate, he projects, he's confident. He answers the questions,
Speaker 1: and he says everything that you want him to say.
Speaker 1: And I would go so far as to say that
Speaker 1: Nico Harrison and Jason Kidd acted way more giddy than
Speaker 1: he did. Wow, dude, I wasn't there like you were,
Speaker 1: So I'm interested in your eyeballs what you saw. But
Speaker 1: just listening to it on the radio, man, he sounds calm, composed.
Speaker 1: He doesn't really care about social media. It's not really
Speaker 1: into music. He's just a basketball robot, basketball, golf and family.
Speaker 1: That's what he's into. That's the answer to the question,
Speaker 1: what kind of music do you listen to? He basically said,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Whatever I'm whoever, I'm with whatever they
Speaker 1: put on. I'm fine, he's gonna end up hearing a
Speaker 1: Toby Keith song. Yeah, I mean, that's just the way
Speaker 1: it goes. He's gonna be like, yeah, so so anyways,
Speaker 1: that's I mean, I'm blown away by the way he
Speaker 1: handles himself. The other thing is, I don't know if
Speaker 1: you guys heard the question, because when I heard the question,
Speaker 1: he was asked who his basketball Mount Rushmore was. Did
Speaker 1: you guys hear that question?
Speaker 2: Heard about it?
Speaker 1: I heard after the fact they asked him his NBA
Speaker 1: Mount Rushmore and then they said, oh.
Speaker 2: In WNBA. Okay, wait they did add that.
Speaker 1: They added that at the end to be fair, and
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, because I heard a tease for
Speaker 1: it on another station, going yeah, coming up next. What
Speaker 1: did he say his w NBA Mount Rushmore was. That's
Speaker 1: a tough thing to be asked, dude, and he sped
Speaker 1: it out just fine, Yeah, I want to hear it.
Speaker 2: Hell, you have it. I think I have it, okay.
Speaker 1: And and let me just say that when this was
Speaker 1: going down, I didn't hear them say w n B
Speaker 1: A at the last minute.
Speaker 2: I thought he just offered that up on his own.
Speaker 2: But still go ahead, that's in your media.
Speaker 3: Two fun questions for you, who's on your mount Rushmore
Speaker 3: or NBA and of the NBA players, And what's your
Speaker 3: favorite basketball movie? And why?
Speaker 2: Eddy?
Speaker 3: My favorite basketball movie is Hoosiers.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go.
Speaker 3: My favorite movie is Growing Up. I watched it hundreds
Speaker 3: of times.
Speaker 2: I love Dennis Rushmore.
Speaker 3: NBA players, I would say Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, Lebron
Speaker 3: and probably Kobe and then w n B A Canis Parker,
Speaker 3: Brittany Griner. I think Asia Wilson is on there, and
Speaker 3: then I might put him and Clark on there just.
Speaker 1: Case, just two missed opportunities there for uh, for our
Speaker 1: new math.
Speaker 2: He's a rookie.
Speaker 1: Just you gotta drop a Dirk and a Page right
Speaker 1: there and just shout hold number one in the city.
Speaker 2: Already it's a statue today.
Speaker 1: So earlier in the day or he was, he talked
Speaker 1: about Page because they have a thing because Page though
Speaker 1: he lived in Maine, and Page gave him hell for
Speaker 1: not going to Yukon. He met her when he visited Yukon.
Speaker 1: I honestly kind of like that. He didn't say Dirk
Speaker 1: And here's why, man, he's not down to pander definitely
Speaker 1: not he because he's got a relationship with Lebron. And
Speaker 1: I heard him on Draft night there was like who's
Speaker 1: better or who's the goat of all time? Michael Jordan
Speaker 1: or Lebron And he's got a relationship with Lebron and
Speaker 1: he said, Michael Jordan. Yeah, he's he's not gonna he's
Speaker 1: not gonna pander, and he's gonna say what he thinks
Speaker 1: and he's gonna go. And here's the other thing. He
Speaker 1: had no familiarity with Jason Kibbs game. Did y'all hear that? Okay,
Speaker 1: so someone said, you know, I'm paraphrasing, how would you
Speaker 1: say that your coach's game.
Speaker 2: Was or whatever?
Speaker 1: He goes, well, I need to familiarize myself with it.
Speaker 1: I need to go back and look at that. I mean,
Speaker 1: he's a legend and everybody says he was great, but
Speaker 1: you didn't know. And then the other thing, I mean,
Speaker 1: he said multiple times Jason Kidd talked about him playing
Speaker 1: point guard, and man, I'm just.
Speaker 2: I'm loving this so much. I'm loving it so much.
Speaker 2: This is what I wanted.
Speaker 1: I mean, to me, it's like, let's not sign a
Speaker 1: third rate point guard and run him out there until
Speaker 1: Kyrie's healthy.
Speaker 2: Let's put the best players on the floor.
Speaker 1: And Jake kids talking about I want to make him
Speaker 1: uncomfortable early. That's what I did with the Greek Freak
Speaker 1: and he failed and then he came back and perfected it.
Speaker 1: And it's like the type of player that we're talking about. Dude,
Speaker 1: get out there and do this. I'm going to make
Speaker 1: you uncomfortable because ultimately you'll be the best you could
Speaker 1: possibly be by going through this process.
Speaker 2: Beautiful what I want. I'm so excited for all of this.
Speaker 1: Yes, and it is fun to still bump into people
Speaker 1: that are trying so hard to hate everything.
Speaker 2: It's like, hey, man, no, I get it.
Speaker 1: Man, you cannot watch awesome basketball like you know, I
Speaker 1: don't know why you were a basketball fan of the
Speaker 1: first place, but dude, deprive yourself of that.
Speaker 2: Like, I get it. This is important.
Speaker 1: We'll get back into Cooper Flag. At about four fifteen.
Speaker 1: We got a scattering report on that. We got to
Speaker 1: hear anything else, No, that was that's goods, such good stuff.
Speaker 2: Thanks.
Speaker 1: Skin is tracking the Cooper Flag press conference coming up next.
Speaker 1: In the Hollywood Shuffle, members of one of the greatest
Speaker 1: rock bands ever tell you What is the greatest rock
Speaker 1: song of all time?
Speaker 2: This is good, don't miss it. It's next
