Oh yeah, no, no, it's gonna be. 93 00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:10.039 I've gotten stuck into a superstition. I've won the same outfit, 94 00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:11.960 I mean, the same food for the first two games, 95 00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:13.039 for two. 96 00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:14.159 Games of the tournament. 97 00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:17.399 Okay, okay, I'm not gonna say what it is like 98 00:04:17.480 --> 00:04:21.560 as a former former ballplayer, like I ate superstit Like, oh, 99 00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:22.720 you can't even say what you do. 100 00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:23.279 I won't tell. 101 00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:26.079 We were watching the game with a group of people 102 00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:29.639 on Friday night and Sarah Horvath, the director of PEMA County, 103 00:04:29.959 --> 00:04:32.079 was like, what are your superstitions? And my wife I 104 00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:34.839 was like, you don't say those things, like there's superstitions 105 00:04:34.839 --> 00:04:36.639 for a reason, like I would if I put my 106 00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:39.439 socks on wrong, I would go back and reshower and start. 107 00:04:39.279 --> 00:04:41.399 The whole process. And how does that work for you? 108 00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:44.120 I mean, I'm not playing big league baseball anymore, so 109 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:45.319 I mean it worked for a little while. 110 00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:47.120 Yeah, yeah, But you know there's a point. It's like 111 00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:49.560 people who do the show do these types of shows, 112 00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:51.879 and oh, I'm gonna make predictions. They make predictions and 113 00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:54.120 they hit thirty percent. What's the point of listening to 114 00:04:54.120 --> 00:04:57.360 people who make predictions? They hit thirty percent? So how 115 00:04:57.399 --> 00:04:59.560 many times did your little superstition thing work? I did 116 00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:00.000 pretty well? 117 00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:01.800 Yeah, I mean, and it was I think it created 118 00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:03.720 a routine in a sense where I mean it was 119 00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:06.639 a little just more comfortable, like tomorrow, like want saying 120 00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:08.560 like I'm gonna be at my parents house.

I've taken this thing down. 187 00:07:57.040 --> 00:07:59.800 There's there's more psychology to these things, right, Yeah, you 188 00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:02.920 find something to say that you know, Blake, you can't 189 00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:04.639 do this, and you find a way they can. 190 00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:08.519 Yeah, listen, I mean if you guys watched Duke play yep, 191 00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:12.920 I mean yeah, right now, looking at every team in 192 00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:14.560 the term and they're probably the best term team in 193 00:08:14.600 --> 00:08:15.600 the do you think so? 194 00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:19.759 I mean do you think so? I think so? See. 195 00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:22.759 I I like Florida from the get go, and I 196 00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:26.120 think that would helped them. Just recently, is they got 197 00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:28.360 it scare? Yeah, it's always good. Good to get that 198 00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:30.519 scare out, not that it's going to prevent you from 199 00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:32.759 getting it again. But at least you know that you 200 00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:33.519 got to bring it. 201 00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:34.480 Yeah. 202 00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:38.320 I maybe it's just my internal hatred towards Florida that 203 00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:40.320 doesn't allow me to see that. But you're you're absolate. 204 00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:43.200 They're a great team and Houston. I really like Houston. 205 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:44.559 Houston finds a way to win no matter what. 206 00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:47.039 Houston is different than any other team out there because 207 00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:49.240 it could, it could streep all you, it could beat 208 00:08:49.279 --> 00:08:53.039 you up and make every point count. Yeah, you know, 209 00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:56.399 and that's just their way of playing basketball. Absolutely. Yeah, 210 00:08:56.799 --> 00:09:00.279 So we'll see. I think to Arizona's a bang if 211 00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:02.440 they have one tomorrow. Is they play a little of 212 00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:04.879 that now? And Duke isn't used to that. 213 00:09:07.120 --> 00:09:11.480 Well, you talk about the nephew mentality, You're you're gonna 214 00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:14.399 tell them that they can't They're going to Yeah, they're 215 00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:16.399 gonna try their but they're gonna give you the best 216 00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:20.000 game they can. And I've been talking to this, I've 217 00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.440 been talking about this to a lot of people. When's 218 00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:25.720 the last time a team beat Arizona twice? Maybe outside 219 00:09:25.720 --> 00:09:28.039 of Houston. Let me tell you, I take to Houston. 220 00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:30.120 That's another part of that story. I'd have to go 221 00:09:30.159 --> 00:09:31.799 back and I had to go get a media guy. 222 00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:35.039 But it doesn't happen very often because not only in 223 00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:39.279 a season, but as a program. When's the last time 224 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:41.360 he saw Arizona lows, especially in Tommy's time? 225 00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:42.879 Yeah, what's the why? I was just gonna ask, what's 226 00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:46.720 Tommy's record on revenge? It's fantastic. I think Houston was 227 00:09:46.720 --> 00:09:48.399 one of the ones that only got him. 228 00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:52.559 Yeah. Yeah, Uh, they just adjust better. And I don't 229 00:09:52.559 --> 00:09:54.840 know when I cover the team every day, I don't 230 00:09:54.840 --> 00:09:56.600 do it every day now. It's like I used to. 231 00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:59.799 But you tell Richard Jefferson, you tell Gilbertinez, you tell 232 00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:03.039 these dudes, these dudes are better than you. What, Yeah, 233 00:10:03.480 --> 00:10:06.000 you're you're if you kidding me? Yeah, you know. And 234 00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:07.799 that's how they beat Kansas and all that back in 235 00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:10.600 the day. Uh. And part of my story is Dickerson, 236 00:10:10.639 --> 00:10:12.559 Michael Dickerson, you know, kind of oblivious to a lot 237 00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:14.720 of things. You guys are seven point dogs, how do 238 00:10:14.759 --> 00:10:19.519 you feel? Well, we're underdogs, so you don't know, you 239 00:10:19.519 --> 00:10:22.399 don't know what, you don't know? Yeah, and you just play. Yeah, 240 00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:27.120 So I think that's too Arizona's advantage for sure. Yeah, 241 00:10:27.840 --> 00:10:30.480 I won't see style of play and who's gonna who's 242 00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:31.240 gonna stop Flag? 243 00:10:32.440 --> 00:10:33.879 I mean it's not just Flag. I mean they've got 244 00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:36.679 three They've got they've got three top fifteen picks. 245 00:10:37.399 --> 00:10:39.960 Have another conversation I was having over the last couple 246 00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:43.080 of days, just looking back at that twenty eleven matchup. 247 00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:46.240 They let Kyrie Irving and I think the plumb lead brother. 248 00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:49.600 They let them do their thing, but shut everyone else down. 249 00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:52.279 I think that works. Their advantage is that's something similar 250 00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:55.840 that's gonna happen tomorrow where they let Flag and uh 251 00:10:55.919 --> 00:10:58.440 maybe one of the shooting guards have a game they 252 00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:00.519 usually do, but shut everything else down. 253 00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:03.039 Yeah, easier said than done. 254 00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:05.799 They trailed for a while in that game to the 255 00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:10.480 carry Irving game first, yeah yeah, and then they just 256 00:11:10.519 --> 00:11:12.759 went off. Yeah that second half complete domination. 257 00:11:12.919 --> 00:11:16.039 Yeah. So so we'll see what happens. It's a great matchup, 258 00:11:16.360 --> 00:11:18.200 you know, it's the biggest matchup in a long time 259 00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:22.720 point wise for them being an underdog. We'll see. And 260 00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:25.200 they were relaxed today, not that you can just look 261 00:11:25.200 --> 00:11:27.120 at it in the in the zoom call, but. 262 00:11:27.559 --> 00:11:29.559 You yeah, but you want to see that. Yeah, they're 263 00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:30.639 playing with house money at this. 264 00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:34.080 Sure, sure, but you know, you look relaxed today, But 265 00:11:34.120 --> 00:11:37.240 what makes you look not relaxed when you're talking talking 266 00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:39.759 to people? Oh? They look good on the court, really, 267 00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:42.000 who knows? Who knows what's going on inside? 268 00:11:42.240 --> 00:11:45.039 I tighten my butchets pretty pretty aggressively. 269 00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:47.080 Is that one of their superstitions? You don't have to 270 00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:50.679 tell me that. What you asked what would look when 271 00:11:50.679 --> 00:11:53.039 I'm stressed?
