00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:02.560
<v Speaker 1>Ben and Skin Show ninety some point one The Eagle.

2
00:00:02.600 --> 00:00:04.400
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for hanging with us today.

3
00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:05.200
<v Speaker 2>Ben.

4
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:07.400
<v Speaker 1>It's that time where we tell you the sponsor of

5
00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:10.320
<v Speaker 1>the sports segment is Twisted Root Burger Company.

6
00:00:10.320 --> 00:00:12.279
<v Speaker 2>And I know you love you some Twisted Root.

7
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:14.919
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I think it might be the best burger

8
00:00:14.919 --> 00:00:17.440
<v Speaker 3>in the history of Dallas Fort Worth. It's definitely in

9
00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:20.480
<v Speaker 3>the discussion. There have been some great burgers. There's one

10
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:23.440
<v Speaker 3>particular burger architect that we know who makes a fine,

11
00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:26.000
<v Speaker 3>fine burger. But if you were to list out the

12
00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:28.199
<v Speaker 3>top burgers in town, you'd be remiss not to have

13
00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:30.800
<v Speaker 3>Twisted Root right at the top of that list. Yeah,

14
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:33.439
<v Speaker 3>and now they spent the last six months or so

15
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:37.079
<v Speaker 3>retooling their menu and so they've re emerged.

16
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:38.119
<v Speaker 2>It's even better than ever.

17
00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:40.359
<v Speaker 1>Plus they have some build you own burger options that

18
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:43.399
<v Speaker 1>we're big, big fans of. So what we want you

19
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:45.920
<v Speaker 1>to do is to visit a Twisted Root Burger Company.

20
00:00:45.920 --> 00:00:51.399
<v Speaker 1>They're all over the Metroplex, Carrollton, Deep Elum, Arlington, Bedford,

21
00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:53.880
<v Speaker 1>East Plain. I could go on and on, but all

22
00:00:53.880 --> 00:00:56.280
<v Speaker 1>the locations are great. They're delicious and you're going to

23
00:00:56.359 --> 00:00:58.520
<v Speaker 1>have a great time. Check it out. It's the Twisted

24
00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:02.439
<v Speaker 1>Root Burger Company. But right now it's time for this.

25
00:01:04.280 --> 00:01:07.719
<v Speaker 2>Balance around the sports.

26
00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:11.560
<v Speaker 3>KDD Queens has all the sports.

27
00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:17.040
<v Speaker 4>Yes, look at those Indiana Pacers. They're now up too

28
00:01:17.040 --> 00:01:19.200
<v Speaker 4>to one in the NBA Finals after a big win

29
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.280
<v Speaker 4>last night at home over our friends to the North,

30
00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:25.439
<v Speaker 4>our allies to the Oklahoma City Thunder not.

31
00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:29.920
<v Speaker 2>Our allies hate them. Uh and uh dude, I.

32
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:32.480
<v Speaker 3>Cannot believe this. I can't wait to get your thoughts

33
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:35.480
<v Speaker 3>on this skin. I thought that it was going to

34
00:01:35.519 --> 00:01:38.079
<v Speaker 3>be a gentleman's sweep after you know, the Pacers took

35
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:38.599
<v Speaker 3>Game one.

36
00:01:39.079 --> 00:01:40.280
<v Speaker 2>I thought Oklahoma City.

37
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:41.920
<v Speaker 3>Was like, hey, what are we doing? Why are we

38
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:44.840
<v Speaker 3>playing with our food? Let's mop these fools up. Yeah,

39
00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:46.719
<v Speaker 3>but it wasn't to be. And it wasn't even some

40
00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:49.239
<v Speaker 3>incredible game by Haliburt And it was just good balance

41
00:01:49.319 --> 00:01:49.959
<v Speaker 3>game throughout.

42
00:01:50.040 --> 00:01:51.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, good balance game throughout.

43
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:54.560
<v Speaker 1>And they I thought going into the series that for

44
00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>Indiana to have a chance, they were gonna have to

45
00:01:56.640 --> 00:02:01.159
<v Speaker 1>hit a ridiculous percentage of their threes. Oklahoma City shot

46
00:02:01.239 --> 00:02:03.719
<v Speaker 1>better from three last night, I think, which you have.

47
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, Indiana is a really, really good team. I

48
00:02:07.239 --> 00:02:09.680
<v Speaker 1>did not think they were an elite team. They have

49
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:12.960
<v Speaker 1>an elite coach. They have maybe the best coach in

50
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:16.080
<v Speaker 1>the NBA when it comes to just managing a game

51
00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:21.479
<v Speaker 1>and strategizing on all of those things. When you get

52
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:26.039
<v Speaker 1>into a series and you have to rely on certain things,

53
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:30.840
<v Speaker 1>then it requires guys to step up. And the one

54
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:34.319
<v Speaker 1>question that I had about Oklahoma City. I was one

55
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:37.759
<v Speaker 1>thousand percent sure that Shay Gilgis Alexander would be up

56
00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:41.240
<v Speaker 1>for it. My question was when other guys had to

57
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:44.639
<v Speaker 1>step up, were they ready? Like Jalen Williams as a

58
00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:46.879
<v Speaker 1>player I really like, and he had a good game

59
00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:49.120
<v Speaker 1>last night, but I don't know that I think he's

60
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:51.719
<v Speaker 1>third team All NBA. I think he was third team

61
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:53.960
<v Speaker 1>All NBA because they were far and away the best team.

62
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:56.039
<v Speaker 1>They're like, well, we can't only have one guy on here. Oh,

63
00:02:56.120 --> 00:02:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Jalen's pretty good. I think, you know, it's not that

64
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:02.199
<v Speaker 1>he's an unworthy All Star, but I don't think he's

65
00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:03.000
<v Speaker 1>there yet.

66
00:03:03.080 --> 00:03:03.960
<v Speaker 2>I think he'll be there.

67
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:07.479
<v Speaker 1>This is still you realize Oklahoma City's the youngest team

68
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:08.240
<v Speaker 1>in the NBA.

69
00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:11.759
<v Speaker 3>Right, and and they have so many picks, and so

70
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:14.680
<v Speaker 3>what I wonder how they would look at this if

71
00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:17.759
<v Speaker 3>they don't win it. This year as a front office,

72
00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:21.039
<v Speaker 3>do they panic or they say, we got to make changes.

73
00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:23.159
<v Speaker 3>I mean they have They could do anything they wanted.

74
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:26.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and I think that I think that they keep

75
00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:26.960
<v Speaker 1>it together.

76
00:03:27.199 --> 00:03:29.360
<v Speaker 2>I think they believe in the group and they believe

77
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:30.560
<v Speaker 2>in what they do.

78
00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:33.479
<v Speaker 1>Just the one thing that's crazy is that they've gone

79
00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:37.080
<v Speaker 1>through a situation before where they had they had three

80
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:38.680
<v Speaker 1>successive MVPs.

81
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:40.080
<v Speaker 2>Like, think about that.

82
00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:44.800
<v Speaker 1>The first three people that Sam Presty ever drafted all

83
00:03:44.840 --> 00:03:50.000
<v Speaker 1>became MVP. First three draft picks were Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook,

84
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:52.439
<v Speaker 1>and James Harden. All three of those guys became MVP

85
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:54.560
<v Speaker 1>of the league. And that's why you know we're talking

86
00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:57.599
<v Speaker 1>about this. It's like he's regarded as maybe the best,

87
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:00.199
<v Speaker 1>that's regarded as maybe the best front office and all

88
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:03.680
<v Speaker 1>of North American sports, not just the NBA, and he

89
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:05.960
<v Speaker 1>won Executive of the Year this year and all this stuff.

90
00:04:06.000 --> 00:04:09.879
<v Speaker 1>But I think that the team is so young and

91
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:13.319
<v Speaker 1>because they're not I don't know what they're like financially now,

92
00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:15.280
<v Speaker 1>but the reason they broke up those three guys before

93
00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:18.439
<v Speaker 1>is unwillingness to pay luxury tax. They're gonna have to

94
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:21.560
<v Speaker 1>start signing guys on down the road too, you know.

95
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:25.360
<v Speaker 1>And so that's but they are very methodical and very strategic.

96
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:31.199
<v Speaker 1>I think they keep it together personally, especially with Luca

97
00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:34.399
<v Speaker 1>leaving the Mavericks. I mean, I bet that they probably

98
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:38.000
<v Speaker 1>looked at that and said, Okay, that takes a team

99
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:40.279
<v Speaker 1>that we were struggling with out of the picture. Now

100
00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:42.120
<v Speaker 1>we'll see how bad. We'll see how the Mavericks bounce

101
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:44.800
<v Speaker 1>back next year. But they're still the bell of the ball.

102
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:45.160
<v Speaker 2>In the West.

103
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:47.560
<v Speaker 3>I want them to win it this year because I

104
00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:51.040
<v Speaker 3>think it helps the Mavericks explain. If Oklahoma City wins

105
00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:53.720
<v Speaker 3>this year, they're going to have that championship meet in

106
00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:55.600
<v Speaker 3>their belly and it's hard to go back to back

107
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.800
<v Speaker 3>because it's hard to have that fire. Yeah right, And

108
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:00.879
<v Speaker 3>so I'd rather they just were fat and happy and

109
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:03.360
<v Speaker 3>satisfied with being champs and ah darn, we didn't go

110
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:06.160
<v Speaker 3>back to back. But if they lose after being the

111
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:08.360
<v Speaker 3>best team of the NBA and they're the youngest team

112
00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:11.319
<v Speaker 3>of the NBA, there will be hell to pay next year.

113
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:12.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, what if.

114
00:05:12.439 --> 00:05:14.439
<v Speaker 5>They what if they sit there and they look at

115
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:18.800
<v Speaker 5>their organization and they determined, man, our MVP player was

116
00:05:18.839 --> 00:05:21.519
<v Speaker 5>just getting blown by all night. We gotta have a

117
00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:24.199
<v Speaker 5>guy who can play defense. Do you like championships?

118
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Do you like that that that that's going around now?

119
00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:29.839
<v Speaker 1>Is it the blown by stats from Shae versus Luca

120
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:30.399
<v Speaker 1>last year?

121
00:05:30.519 --> 00:05:31.040
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

122
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:33.439
<v Speaker 2>Because she's getting blown by. He's had some blown bys?

123
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:38.480
<v Speaker 6>Oh more than Luca apparently? Yeah, total, But I don't know.

124
00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:40.920
<v Speaker 6>I got to trade him for an aging injured player. Now,

125
00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:44.839
<v Speaker 6>let me say I've seen I have not seen. I

126
00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:49.240
<v Speaker 6>have not That's funny, I have not seen. Uh you know,

127
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:52.120
<v Speaker 6>those stats validated. I've just seen it on Twitter.

128
00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:54.800
<v Speaker 2>Sure, and I all say, I'm same, dude, I don't know.

129
00:05:55.240 --> 00:05:57.879
<v Speaker 1>I'm also a little like apprehensive about the idea of

130
00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:01.279
<v Speaker 1>blown by stats, like, al right, come.

131
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.800
<v Speaker 3>On, man, mind blown by stats were terrible in high school.

132
00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:05.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

133
00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:07.600
<v Speaker 3>Man, ah man, Well we'll get even in marriage. Still

134
00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:09.240
<v Speaker 3>really low?

135
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:09.920
<v Speaker 2>Ah man.

136
00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Well we'll get back into sports a little bit later

137
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:13.639
<v Speaker 1>when we do Cowboys Kerosene.

138
00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:16.040
<v Speaker 2>That's what that's coming up at five o'clock. We good

139
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:16.279
<v Speaker 2>with that?

140
00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:20.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, all right, fantastic, Katie. Explain what's happening next in
