00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,319
Speaker 3: Those Mormons send it back on their mission. I don't

35
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:12,360
think the bounces Mormon.

36
00:02:13,199 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 2: Why not?

37
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:14,919

38
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,599
Speaker 2: Do they let you in? Absolutely?

39
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:17,759
Speaker 3: You don't be more goan to go to b Yu.

40
00:02:17,879 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 2: Oh you don't. I thought it was a requirement. No,

41
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,800
only the coaches must be Mormon. Really, yes, what about

42
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,080
the trainers? Nope?

43
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 3: Okay, well the only.

44
00:02:25,199 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 2: The only requirement at by us you must if you're

45
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,439
going to be a head coach. Yeah, a head coach,

46
00:02:29,439 --> 00:02:31,759
you must be Mormon? Really, yes, it must be of

47
00:02:31,759 --> 00:02:34,360
the LDS faith. I didn't know that. That's what you.

48
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:36,439
Speaker 4: Know.

49
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 3: They run you down with papers. They're a little intense.

50
00:02:39,039 --> 00:02:41,159
I mean, what what if you're a what if you're

51
00:02:41,159 --> 00:02:44,120
a just convert? You could sure?

52
00:02:44,479 --> 00:02:49,080
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, ironically enough, there are you know, quite a

53
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,400
few LDS coaches in You know, Andy Rie could go

54
00:02:51,479 --> 00:02:55,479
coach at b Y if you wanted to. Okay, uh, yeah,

55
00:02:55,479 --> 00:02:57,680
I think he did. Jim McMahon, I don't know if

56
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,960
he Jim's ld S or not, but he obviously played

57
00:03:00,039 --> 00:03:01,439
college football there, so okay.

58
00:03:01,479 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 3: What about Vince McMahon.

59
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,039
Speaker 2: I think Vince doesn't know where he is right now. Okay,

60
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:07,520
I think he's still in some legal issues, but that's

61
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,400
not here nor there. Willie's Ice House two nighting in Parker.

Speaker 3: I mean, this is why we love Houston.

65
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 2: This is why mister Texas branches outside of the gallery

66
00:03:21,039 --> 00:03:22,319
to come to beautiful Cypress.

67
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 3: You're not mister Texas. What an absolutely gorgeous day.

68
00:03:25,159 --> 00:03:25,439
Speaker 5: It is.

69
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,599
Speaker 2: What an outstanding place. Uh TV's all over the place

70
00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:30,120
if you want to come check the check out. The

71
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,000
multiple NCAA tournament games have some lunch if you are

72
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,680
of a Cajun flair. I'm getting gumboat today, which I'm

73
00:03:35,719 --> 00:03:36,719
very much looking forward to.

74
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 3: That's great, can't wait.

75
00:03:38,759 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 2: Can you just like for like an hour, don't call

76
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,039
yourself mister Texas because I'm under the rest of the show.

77
00:03:43,039 --> 00:03:46,719
I'm tired. Now the listeners call me it's seven. Once

78
00:03:46,759 --> 00:03:48,759
it's coffee hits, I'll be fine, but I'm tired.

79
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 3: You're throwing coffee in your eye. I was on a

80
00:03:52,319 --> 00:03:55,439
past midnight taking calls of people upset about the.

81
00:03:55,439 --> 00:03:57,879
Speaker 2: Houston Rocket d one almost four minutes. They're not they're

not even trying. Apparently has checked out. Yeah, the Rockets lose,

83
00:04:03,919 --> 00:04:05,960
and I'm happy to be out here on location, but

84
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,680
I'm just not in a great mood for the moment.

85
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,599
It makes me upset when the worst possible candidate for

86
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,719
mister Texas calls himself that. So just you know, as

87
00:04:14,759 --> 00:04:19,399

00:04:21,759 --> 00:04:23,959

00:04:40,199 --> 00:04:40,319

96
00:04:40,399 --> 00:04:42,199
Speaker 2: He will be right smack in the middle of that

97
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,800
futures game they're playing this morning, which is coming up

98
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:45,399
at the top of the hour.

99
00:04:45,519 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 3: Oh well, if you want to hear that game will

100
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:48,439
be tonight at seven o'clock here.

101
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 2: On seven ninety. Uh. And then what else we got,

102
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:52,839
Oh we got I just don't get it. At eleven

103
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,519
thirty today, wonderful. Uh. We have the news at noon

104
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,759
and then uh, we're also checking the prize vault to

105
00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:02,240
see what we can give away today frame by that

106
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,319
comes out here, So okay, stand by for that. Don't

107
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,759
want to give you anything away until we know what

108
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,560
we have for sure. Rockets last night fall to the

109
00:05:09,639 --> 00:05:13,120
Lakers one twenty four to one sixteen. They are in

110
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,079
a mathematical tie for the fifth spot in the West,

111
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,279
but the Rockets have to play two more games and

112
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,759
the Nuggets have played so far, and the Nuggets to

113
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,360
own the tiebreaker. The Rockets also, with the loss last night,

114
00:05:24,399 --> 00:05:27,680
lose the Laker tiebreaker as well. And what I thought

115
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,399
would be a top three team. Unless the Lakers start

116
00:05:30,439 --> 00:05:32,120
to play like they did maybe say a month or

117
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,439
two ago, the Rockets may not find themselves in the

118
00:05:34,439 --> 00:05:38,000
three seed. There's still the fourth spot to be had,

119
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,319
but the hottest team in the NBA is coming to

120
00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:42,759
town on Tomorrow night to play in the Atlanta Hawks.

121
00:05:42,759 --> 00:05:44,480
I think have won what eleven straight games? I think

122
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,680
I've lost track. Then you've got Miami, and then you've

123
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,120
got a four game road trip. Now the four game

124
00:05:50,199 --> 00:05:52,439
road trip has three of the four opponents are putrid.

125
00:05:52,879 --> 00:05:55,879
One is really good. But you're running out of time,

126
00:05:55,959 --> 00:05:57,839
running out of games, and you're running out of.

127
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:03,879
Speaker 3: I don't want to say juice, but super positive vibes

128
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:04,240
it is.

129
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 2: It's a four and five month, four wins, five losses

130
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,240
for the Rockets in the month of March. Losing the

131
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,600
two games at home to the Lakers does not help,

132
00:06:11,879 --> 00:06:14,439
as they further supplant themselves. They've won what ten of eleven,

133
00:06:14,519 --> 00:06:16,639
They've won seven straight games.

134
00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:19,959
Speaker 3: Let me or you, I think it was you. Let's

135
00:06:19,959 --> 00:06:20,439
find out this.

136
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:27,519
Speaker 2: Let's find out it was it was me. All right,

137
00:06:27,639 --> 00:06:28,959
let me tell you what we're gonna do today. What

138
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:29,800
are we gonna do today?

139
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 3: If you come out here anytime between now and two o'clock.

140
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 2: Okay. We don't even have like a prize vault or anything,

141
00:06:40,079 --> 00:06:43,600
but you come out here, give us your name in

142
00:06:43,639 --> 00:06:47,199

fifty today. Okay, I've got two pairs of Rockets Bucks

00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,079

may be, we will give away two pairs of tickets

Speaker 3: Watching a McNeese Cowboys? Then what time they play? I

162
00:07:28,959 --> 00:07:29,399
don't know.

163
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 2: I would say, Louisiana people hate us, but they don't

164
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,800
because I don't know people Alwaisian to hate anybody. That's

00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,560
think in my bracket I've got Vanderbilt wedding. Okay, uh

168
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,319
but yeah, point being is that any two pairents will

169
00:07:53,319 --> 00:07:54,720
give away two pairs, will do it at the very

170
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:55,199
end of the show.

171
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:57,199
Speaker 3: So come on buy and you know what we'll do.

172
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,519
Speaker 2: No, you know how important these little note pads like

173
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,839
it when I say and hotels, I'm gonna I'm gonna

174
00:08:02,879 --> 00:08:05,079
surrender a pad for people to write their name and

175
00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:07,879
emails dressed down. Okay, this will only be with seventy

176
00:08:07,879 --> 00:08:10,920
five packs. We'll do a drawing at one and we'll

177
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,519
give away two pairs for those April first tickets. Again,

178
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,240
if you want to see rifting, enough pads, you can

179
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,120
know you can afford it. I don't think drifting. I

180
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,079
think they're I think they're a gift. Ye, please at

181
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:24,319
our hotel take our pads, okay, all right? Uh So

182
00:08:24,399 --> 00:08:26,759
I listened to the rockets where I'm coming back from

183
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:28,360
home from the arena.

184
00:08:29,319 --> 00:08:31,319
Speaker 3: You did fine, you always do fine.

185
00:08:31,519 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 2: But the reality is I think I do a pretty

186
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:39,840
damn good job. Look, the Lakers are better, Uh, Luca

187
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:45,000
and Reeves and Lebron finally figured it out. That's why

188
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,120
the NBA was scared of them. Now, I don't think

189
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,799
they are any They're not better than Oklahoma City, They're

190
00:08:48,799 --> 00:08:51,480
not better than San Antonio. But they're right now playing

191
00:08:51,519 --> 00:08:53,159
like the third best team in the Western Conference. They

192
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,039
are who their record says they are, and they played

193
00:08:56,039 --> 00:09:00,200
incredibly well last night. Luca pushes off more than any

194
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,080
other being. I mean, it is tiresome. And then damn

195
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,039
and look, you and I have had for sixteen years,

196
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:11,159
sixteen good years of really I think decent debate about Lebron.

197
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:17,279
Speaker 3: James, in my mind the second greatest player, but my god, his.

198
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:22,200
Speaker 2: Acting skills are going from bad to worse. I lost

199
00:09:22,279 --> 00:09:28,440
my mind yesterday when he was writhing, riding in pain.

200
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,759
He was in so much pain after that common foul

201
00:09:32,879 --> 00:09:36,879
by Jabbari Smith that he had to get help from

202
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,360
multiple teammates, went to the sideline. I don't know if

203
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,000
he came back in the game, except he came right

204
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,159
back in the game to shoot the free throw.

205
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, he came right in.

206
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,039
Speaker 2: He is a horrific actor. I thought he's working in, Uh,

207
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,480
what's that movie? Space Jam two was bad. His acting

208
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,360
last night was worse. It was. It was bad. And

209
00:09:55,399 --> 00:09:57,320
he's riding on the floor like you said it was

210
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:02,120
a he throws his head back like he got shot,

211
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,679
and Jabari Smith Junior went like he's having an anerism

212
00:10:05,759 --> 00:10:07,799
live on the floor at the Total Center. Yeah, he

213
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:12,120
grabs his elbow like he dislocated it and it and

214
00:10:12,159 --> 00:10:15,000
he's just on the ground kicking and screaming, and it's like,

215
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,159
this is the thing that I almost want to pull

216
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:19,000
this out for. I just don't get it. They have

217
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,480
video reviewed. Dude, this is not sucker. You can't hide this.

218
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:26,679
They're going to look at it. They're going to see

219
00:10:26,919 --> 00:10:29,960
that Jabari Smith Junior barely put his arm on You

220
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,320
didn't hit you on the head, right, and then you're

221
00:10:33,759 --> 00:10:37,679
just acting like you got shot out of a cannon. Yeah,

222
00:10:37,759 --> 00:10:41,360
it's ridiculous because you know what it's doing. In my mind,

223
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,200
it's staining part of his career, not a lot of it,

224
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:46,960
but there's a little.

225
00:10:46,759 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 3: Bit of distain.

226
00:10:47,399 --> 00:10:49,399
Speaker 2: I think if you've decided you're not gonna like Lebron,

227
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,480
it's gonna add it anything but Lebron.

228
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, my god, last night he went thirteen to fourteen.

229
00:10:54,159 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 2: He's forty whatever he is, he's been the league for

230
00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:01,120
twenty three years. He's incredibly efficient. Last year, what I mean, thirteen,

231
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:02,960
that's that's that's suppose he's not supposed to do that,

232
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:03,600
but yet he did.

233
00:11:03,799 --> 00:11:05,519
Speaker 3: Thirteen or fourteen is the best shooting night of his

234
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:06,039
career ever.

235
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 2: And you know this, he leaves the league in fast

236
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:11,039
break points.

237
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:18,639
Speaker 3: And by the way, oh, the leakouts last night, they

238
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:19,320
were a problem.

239
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,279
Speaker 2: That's what It led to a big part of the

240
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,799
Lakers shooting sixty percent. If you look at the box

241
00:11:23,799 --> 00:11:25,159
score and you didn't watch the game, you're like, he

242
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,320
shot sixty percent. The Rockets played no defense, well kind of,

243
00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:31,279
they played no defense on those leakouts. Turnovers that led

244
00:11:31,279 --> 00:11:33,320
to points. You didn't turn over the ball as much,

245
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:34,799
but you gave up more points off of them. You

246
00:11:34,879 --> 00:11:36,960
only turned the ball over twelve. You cut your turnovers

247
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,679
in half. Yeah, just twelve turnofs. They scored almost every one.

248
00:11:39,759 --> 00:11:42,600
They scored twenty three points off of those twelve that's

249
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:46,120
the problem. And then you couldn't stop Luca late. Credit

250
00:11:46,159 --> 00:11:48,080
to the Rockets for coming back in the third quarter.

251
00:11:48,399 --> 00:11:51,919
Great third course. I mean Kevin got evolved was getting

252
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,519
you know, giving up on them and receiving texts that

253
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,639
they have no balls and all this stuff, like they

254
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,240
showed some fight in the third quarter. They just weren't

255
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:07,759
good enough and and and that's what hurts. And Luka

256
00:12:07,799 --> 00:12:09,759
donch they had Luka Doncic and you didn't. That's what

257
00:12:09,799 --> 00:12:11,679
happened at the end of the game there you're trying

258
00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,000
to trap him. Yeah, I love Alprin Shingoon, but when

259
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,879
he's on the floor, they're running pick and rolls at

260
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:20,240
him the entire game and they they're the Rockets are trying.

261
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 3: To trap.

262
00:12:23,159 --> 00:12:26,039
Speaker 2: Go under Luca. He's gonna shoot the threes, you gotta

263
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,799
if he's gonna show and go, which Shingun was doing

264
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,000
some too. I mean that there's just no solution for

265
00:12:31,039 --> 00:12:33,240
a for a Luka Doncic pick and roll and the

266
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,480
behind the back dribble alleyouped up to Ruy Hachimura.

267
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 3: I mean, you just there's just nothing you can do.

268
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,919
Speaker 2: And then he found Lebron James on the alley oop

269
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,960
and then he knocks down a killer step back three.

270
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,039
It's funny to say, I think they played pretty good

271
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,120
defense on a guy who almost had a forty point

272
00:12:50,159 --> 00:12:53,320
triple double. But they actually, for the most part, it

273
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,440
took him twenty five shots to get there. That was,

274
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,240
and he was only seven to seventeen, and he didn't

275
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:58,360
do himself in the favorites.

276
00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 3: Of the free throw line.

in vedge in front of a television. Yeah, drink of course, Yeah,

331
00:15:22,639 --> 00:15:24,399
this is the These are the best two days of

332
00:15:24,399 --> 00:15:28,080
the year sports wise. Spot teams we don't care about, no,

333
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,799
and players we don't know, can't name a single player, not,

334
00:15:30,879 --> 00:15:31,600
cannot name.

335
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 3: A single player. No, but we just want Well.

336
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:35,919
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, when Western Illinois is within four,

337
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,240
we're like, oh my god, upset city baby. Well, the

338
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:43,960
Jake Myers fan club is supporting Nebraska for him. How

339
00:15:44,039 --> 00:15:44,159
is that?

340
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:44,879
Speaker 3: Jake Myers fank.

341
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,399
Speaker 2: It's been quite quiet for Jake Machine. We're doing great.

342
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:48,480
We're getting exposure.

343
00:15:48,519 --> 00:15:51,799
Speaker 3: He's on Chandler Rum's Crush City podcast. It's great.

344
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,639
Speaker 2: Slug us up. I guess he's he's a little he's

345
00:15:56,639 --> 00:15:59,480
at more ripped than he was a year ago. Dad's strength.

346
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,919
He's got two kids. Now, I didn't think about that way.

347
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,320
It's ready to go. That strength is important. So you

348
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,519
get to your forty years, it becomes dad flab Well,

349
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,120
that happens you get out of your prime. But he's

350
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,159
in his prime. Yeah he is. And he's still on

351
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,519
the team. He's still here. He's been in trade rumors

352
00:16:13,559 --> 00:16:16,399
for like two straight years. Yeah, he was. He was

353
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,120
in trade rumors when he won't even an astro. He's

354
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,639
been talking about trade Rummers seven one three, two one

355
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:25,360
two five seven nine zero rockets again fall in the

356
00:16:25,399 --> 00:16:28,279
Lakers last night and to find themselves right now in

357
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,559
the five spot percentage points ahead of Denver for the

358
00:16:31,639 --> 00:16:37,720
six glad. We don't have gut feelings today. It's it's

359
00:16:37,759 --> 00:16:39,320
it's not good. I mean they've lost three of the

360
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,919
last four. They've just been in this pattern of five

361
00:16:43,039 --> 00:16:45,600
hundred to below for a couple of weeks post All

362
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,840
Star Break. The defense hasn't been as good, the offense

363
00:16:47,879 --> 00:16:51,799
hasn't been as good. Uh, and you know, we keep,

364
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,039
unfortunately having to go back to the well. If you

365
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,559
don't have Fred van Vliet, you don't have Steven Adams.

366
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,440
And the reason we had the first month is nowhere

367
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,519
to be found. I mean, Tarry Easton hasn't. I don't

368
00:17:01,519 --> 00:17:03,559
know if there's been a worst month of a player

369
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,720
I've ever seen in my life than tar Easan. He's

370
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,640
had one three pointer in the month. What did it?

371
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,079
What is today? Today is the nineteen He's got one

372
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:13,319
three pointer in all the games he's over his last

373
00:17:13,319 --> 00:17:16,039
twenty one from three. And you know, I'm getting people,

374
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:17,920
you know, talking to me and tweeting me like, hey,

375
00:17:18,039 --> 00:17:20,039
tell Tared to stop shooting, till Tar to stop shooting.

376
00:17:20,079 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 3: That's not that's not how basketball works.

377
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,519
Speaker 2: You can't put a player out there and say, don't

378
00:17:24,559 --> 00:17:26,400
worry about putting the ball up, don't ever.

379
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 3: Shoot the ball.

380
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 2: That's just if he's out there, he's got to shoot.

381
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,839
He's got to work out of this because if somehow,

382
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,400
some way the Rockets are gonna turn this season around

383
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,759
and make some noise in the playoffs, Tar Easton's got

384
00:17:36,759 --> 00:17:38,519
to be a part of it. He just has to be.

385
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,559
So I understand that the same thing when Dorrian Phinney

386
00:17:41,599 --> 00:17:43,359
Smith was struggling and people are saying that, like, just

387
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,400
don't put him out there, just Dorrian Finney Smith, that

388
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:46,599
the Rocket's gonna be out of their best.

389
00:17:46,599 --> 00:17:48,559
Speaker 3: He's got to play better. Tarr's got to play better.

390
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 2: They have an amount of talent on this roster to

391
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,200
where they can play better than they are. You just

392
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,559
got guys in a funk and then you're missing some

393
00:17:55,599 --> 00:17:58,000
of your key parts. Yeah, you know, especially the thing

394
00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,960
we're talking about, like the double teams with Kevin Durant.

395
00:18:00,039 --> 00:18:02,240
Oh they can't handle a double team. Yeah, they needed

396
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:05,759
Fred van Vliet and in those instances. And then last

397
00:18:05,799 --> 00:18:07,799
night Albert Shinggun was back and they did a lot

398
00:18:07,839 --> 00:18:09,839
better against the double team than they did on Monday.

399
00:18:11,279 --> 00:18:13,839
Speaker 3: And Durant saw a handful of double teams.

400
00:18:13,839 --> 00:18:15,519
Speaker 2: I think he only went what was his turnover count

401
00:18:15,599 --> 00:18:19,960
last night, let's see he Yeah, still not great.

402
00:18:19,839 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 3: That's not great, but that's better than seven.

403
00:18:22,279 --> 00:18:24,839
Speaker 2: But remember that's Bikati. That's if there's anything that's been

404
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,599
attached to his career, elite shooter, fifty forty ninety guy

405
00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:29,799
in the cusp every single year.

406
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:30,799
Speaker 3: But he does run the ball over.

407
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 2: He's always been a turnover prone guy because again, at

408
00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:37,119
his height, he's going to be asked to do a

409
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:38,599
lot of things that are going to put the ball

410
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,200
in his hand more than anybody else on the floor.

411
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,400
And you're gonna actually have more turnovers because of that case,

412
00:18:42,559 --> 00:18:45,519
because he's not a true prototypical point guard. Yeah, four

413
00:18:45,559 --> 00:18:48,559
from Durant, three from Reid to a piece from shinguon

414
00:18:48,599 --> 00:18:49,440
Atari and that was it.

415
00:18:50,559 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 3: Just twelve. You can live with twelve, you really can.

416
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 2: Problem is, you just saw the Lakers score almost baskets

417
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,839
every single time turned it over. They had a bunch

418
00:18:59,839 --> 00:19:01,880
of outs, and then then and then at the end

419
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,440
when the Rockets rallied, it was the Luka Doncic Show

420
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,799
at Toyota Center, and it was incredible. He's an incredible player.

421
00:19:08,839 --> 00:19:10,480
I'll go homeer on you. Why does he get away

422
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,640
with so many push offs? He could push offs, and

423
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,559
Michael Jordan did in his hey day, I wouldn't say that. Uh,

424
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,000
come on, oh, come on, He's been in the league

425
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:19,759
seven right years?

426
00:19:19,759 --> 00:19:21,759
Speaker 3: Now, you know I'm on now, Okay.

427
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 2: Maybe Michael Jordan got away with push offs. Shake Guild

428
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,240
just Alley, they do shake Gil just Alexander gets away

429
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:26,680
with push off.

430
00:19:26,839 --> 00:19:28,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, James Harden was pushing.

431
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,920
Speaker 2: Off every time he was out there. Devinsky was pushing

432
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,480
off people in the chest. Alprin shing Gun always hooks

433
00:19:35,519 --> 00:19:38,759
people in the post and and pushes off on people.

434
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 3: It's basketball, they want.

435
00:19:41,759 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant is always pushing off people and then getting

436
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:48,640
to his spots in the elbow. It's basketball. How about

437
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,279
Katie getting a flavorant one last night?

438
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,680
Speaker 3: Huh that was absurd by the way.

439
00:19:53,599 --> 00:19:57,920
Speaker 2: I mean, it was a little shove, but that No,

440
00:19:58,599 --> 00:20:02,200
that was bad. Calling the a flagrant one. I'm not

441
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:06,160
normally get off my lawn. This is soft basketball. Just

442
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:08,720
would it never played when John habilat Check was on

443
00:20:08,759 --> 00:20:09,160
the floor.

444
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:10,799
Speaker 3: I don't know.

445
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,599
Speaker 2: It's weird, I don't know, But the point is, I'm

446
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:18,200
not that guy. But that was a soft flagrant foul.

447
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:21,039
And a lot of these flagrant reviews are just ridiculous,

448
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,160
Like the flagrant like they're reviewing the flagrant for on

449
00:20:24,319 --> 00:20:27,759
Lebron James and and and jabbari'smith Junior barely touched him.

450
00:20:27,759 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 3: At least they kept out a common foul.

451
00:20:29,519 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 2: But you know what the funny thing is, in the

452
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:32,960
back of my mind, I'm like, oh, they might be

453
00:20:33,039 --> 00:20:35,920
upgrading this even though you see nothing happened. You never know,

454
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,519
because that's what happens. It feels like I don't have

455
00:20:38,559 --> 00:20:40,799
a the fraction of this, but it feels like to

456
00:20:40,839 --> 00:20:43,279
me that every about every ten times you go to

457
00:20:43,279 --> 00:20:45,079
the monitor, seven or eight of those wind not being

458
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,440
upgraded again. The Rockets got frankly lucky because yeah, no,

459
00:20:48,599 --> 00:20:51,240
maybe it's because Lebron's reputation is well, he tends to

460
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,480
embellish on his fouls. I thought the way that he

461
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,000
like turned his head back into Jabari's hand, and I

462
00:20:56,039 --> 00:20:58,480
thought they might call that a flagrant that's how bad

463
00:20:58,519 --> 00:21:07,960
it is. Yeah, talk about that Texans offensive line auditions. Look,

464
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,279
I'm gonna be I'm gonna be brutally honest with you.

465
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,160
Speaker 8: Okay.

466
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,759
Speaker 2: I love football. I can't get into a deep dive

467
00:21:16,799 --> 00:21:19,359
in football. In April and May, I wanted I wanted Houston.

468
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,079
I wanted y'all to come to our shows and talk

469
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,680
lots of rockets and get a good playoff push and

470
00:21:24,759 --> 00:21:26,920
get going here or you're gonna come to us for

471
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,599
the Astros and we are beyond.

472
00:21:28,279 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 3: Excited about this.

473
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 2: But if I'm losing my rockets and they're not gonna

474
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,400
be in a deep playoff runt, You're all gonna be

475
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,759
calling about whether or not Cad Stover is gonna be

476
00:21:37,799 --> 00:21:39,799
a huge backup tight ended you know for the text,

477
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:41,440
I that crap is.

478
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:42,839
Speaker 3: Boring to me. It just is.

479
00:21:43,759 --> 00:21:45,279
Speaker 2: And I don't want to be boring. I wanna I

480
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,240
want to have fun stuff. I want to have relevant

481
00:21:47,559 --> 00:21:52,759
Houston things to get to, and my rockets are there's

482
00:21:52,839 --> 00:21:57,880
just a mean our four and five in March, Tarry Easton,

483
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,039
who was fantastic for the first two months of the year,

484
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,359
especially from three and then you know, was able to

485
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,599
fight through leg injuries, is playing on back to backs

486
00:22:05,599 --> 00:22:10,480
and playing multiple games and had to step up. He

487
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:15,759
this this this drought he is in is rough. Kevin

488
00:22:15,799 --> 00:22:19,599
Durant in it in four quarters, the last two against

489
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,599
the Lakers and then the first to last night in

490
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:26,440
the second Laker game, had four points just because they're

491
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,119
double teaming them. Yeah, and they're taking the ball out

492
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:29,599
of his hand. He's not gonna score. He's not gonnao

493
00:22:30,279 --> 00:22:32,440
thirty feet out of the back. But I'm saying, thank god,

494
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,279
in the third quarter. He woke up that third quarter.

495
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:35,680
That's the thing that got me last night when you

496
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,279
had calls, was oh the rugg is the any passion?

497
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:39,680
Speaker 3: They have a hell of a lot of passion.

498
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,680
Speaker 2: That he scored thirty seven points and I'll score the

499
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,480
Lakers by fifteen of the third has.

500
00:22:43,319 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 3: A lot of passion. Yeah, that's another thing. We have

501
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:45,839
to have some perspective.

502
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 2: I know it's been a bad run of things, but

503
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,200
I mean, unless we forget man, it wasn't that long

504
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,400
ago you were calling sixty losses a year.

505
00:22:52,559 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 9: Oh my god, I mean I was there. This is

506
00:22:54,799 --> 00:22:58,160
bad basketball. Rock at your trash. This is the worst.

507
00:22:58,319 --> 00:23:00,920
I don't want to watch this. This is phone anymore

508
00:23:01,599 --> 00:23:03,359
like shut Joe bum ass up.

509
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 2: Okay, watch what happened in the Rockets the last twenty

510
00:23:06,319 --> 00:23:10,400
years where we had to watch Kevin Porter Junior and

511
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,880
we all like watching the Christian Woods show in his

512
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:18,079
Ola defense and the Steven Silas Rockets. That was bad basketball. Okay,

513
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:23,200
come on, just got never have any perspective. Everything's the

514
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:25,039
worst of all time, in the best of all time.

515
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 3: And that isn't that something to do with social media?

516
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:30,400
That's just like, that's just what I understand.

517
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 2: But seven one three two one two five seven. By

518
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,279

made for the Pacers this year. But Tyre's Halliburton. Yes,

to Stirling Tyrese Haliburton tweeted out yesterday. God love him.

565
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,960
He's maybe my favorite Eastern Conference player. Now with a

566
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,920
torn achilles one o seven pm yesterday, make one bracket

567
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:52,839
and stand on it.

568
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:53,519
Speaker 3: There you go.

569
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,680
Speaker 2: That's one of the greats of the NBA saying it.

570
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,799
Thank you, Tyres for spreading the gosp I made four

571
00:25:58,839 --> 00:26:02,000
brackets last night to him. Normally, I do I feel

572
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,359
like there's an overwhelming favorite, and I do two winner

573
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:08,680
that that overwhelming favorite winning twice. Like previously, I had

574
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,400
you of h winning in two of my four brackets.

575
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,319
I did four different winners. Do you have your cougar's

576
00:26:12,319 --> 00:26:15,480
in any other four? Okay, don't even answer that question.

577
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,519
Speaker 3: You saw my face. I saw your face, just such

578
00:26:17,519 --> 00:26:19,680
a bad liar. If we were on TV, you just

579
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,440
saw the face too. I'm sorry.

580
00:26:22,559 --> 00:26:24,279
Speaker 2: I like the coopl look I have to make in

581
00:26:24,319 --> 00:26:26,519
the final four, and a few of them. Okay, I'll

582
00:26:26,839 --> 00:26:28,960
I guess I'll accept that. I mean the Florida Gate

583
00:26:29,039 --> 00:26:33,319
is a good Illinois sneaky that two to three matchup

584
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:37,279
could be tough. Yeah, yeah, and Arizona's really good too.

585
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,519
I'm really scared of Arizona and Ken Palm's blog which

586
00:26:41,559 --> 00:26:43,559
I always read every year before the tournament. He he

587
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,279
made a case for a wild card produce. So I

588
00:26:46,279 --> 00:26:49,519
put one in, winning one because of the home court advantage,

589
00:26:49,799 --> 00:26:51,400
because they had a lot of three point luck that

590
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,359
went against them that they could turn in the tournament.

591
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,680
All right, let's go to sterling A seven sterling good

592
00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:02,839
morning to you or something, how y'all poor excellent, thank

593
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:03,880
you for calling us.

594
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,319
Speaker 10: Okay, listen. I'm just really frustrated with the Rockets because

595
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:12,240
it's not that they lose it, it's that they lose

596
00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:17,680
the same way every time they lose. It's like I

597
00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,519
thought Junk was supposed to be this great coach. He's

598
00:27:21,839 --> 00:27:25,640
he keeps doing the same stupid thing over and over again.

599
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 3: Kevin drag can.

600
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,759
Speaker 10: Life dribble the ball out front. That's stupid.

601
00:27:31,519 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 6: Isn't mean?

602
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 10: Am I just only one?

603
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,039
Speaker 6: Seeing that he get the ball.

604
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:39,279
Speaker 10: Taken from him five times last night on the first

605
00:27:39,559 --> 00:27:42,920
Monday night. Nobody been six times, seven times?

606
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:44,839
Speaker 6: And how the Holy One is seeing this?

607
00:27:45,079 --> 00:27:48,519
Speaker 10: Is he is he ignoring the coach? I can see

608
00:27:48,519 --> 00:27:51,680
how two Thienix coaches got fired if they were going

609
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,839
with Kevin Durant. He was just doing what he wanted

610
00:27:53,880 --> 00:27:56,119
to do. I mean, he's a great player, don't get

611
00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,279
me wrong, but he's got holes in his game. It's

612
00:28:00,319 --> 00:28:04,400
donning out foot dripping the ball like James Harden. That's

613
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,720
a problem. It's a turnover machine when he does.

614
00:28:08,559 --> 00:28:09,599
Speaker 6: It, is it me?

615
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,759
Speaker 2: Well, I'll say this the number again. I've always said

616
00:28:13,799 --> 00:28:16,480
this about Kevin, even before he was a Rocket. He's

617
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,359
always gonna have a higher number of turnovers. He just

618
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:19,960
is because the balls in his hand as much as

619
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,599
he is, and is very rare that a six ten

620
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,039
guy dribbles as much as he does.

621
00:28:23,279 --> 00:28:26,400
Speaker 3: That's how he gets himself in the offense. Secondly, it

622
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,279
was a lot better last night. The double teams came and.

623
00:28:29,319 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 2: The rocket.

624
00:28:33,079 --> 00:28:34,319
Speaker 10: Boy, I'll cut you.

625
00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:35,559
Speaker 6: Up for you.

626
00:28:35,599 --> 00:28:37,799
Speaker 2: No, no, I mean I look, I thank you starting

627
00:28:37,839 --> 00:28:40,359
for the phone CA. I'm glad you called. I understand

628
00:28:40,359 --> 00:28:42,160
I I I just don't get it.

629
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 3: I get it. I get the frustration. He's just been

630
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:47,519
the go to guy.

631
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 2: And normally not that I have a percent engine in

632
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,599
front of me, but usually when the balls and Kevin

633
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,640
Durant's hands for a lengthy period of time, especially this year,

634
00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,839
good things are happening. When you've had out. He missed

635
00:28:59,839 --> 00:29:01,200
a couple of games here and there. He's had to

636
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,400
carry the heavy lifting. When a man has not been

637
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:05,119
able to hit the outside shot, you get to go

638
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,960
to Kevin Durant hit the outside shot. Jabari's had his

639
00:29:08,039 --> 00:29:10,200
ups and downs. Reads at his ups and downs. Tari

640
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,519
has had his ups and the now as an away downs,

641
00:29:14,599 --> 00:29:15,599
I still trust him.

642
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 3: I just do.

643
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 2: And with that trust does not come perfection. They are

644
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:27,319
going to be mistakes. Yeah it, And he turned the

645
00:29:27,319 --> 00:29:32,759
ball over four times yesterday. For his career, his illustrious

646
00:29:32,799 --> 00:29:35,920
eighteen year career, he averages three point one turnovers per game.

647
00:29:36,119 --> 00:29:38,200
This is who he is. This year for the Rockets,

648
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,920
he's averaging three point two, not a lot without a

649
00:29:41,359 --> 00:29:44,720
literally point one higher without a point guard. Yeah. In

650
00:29:44,759 --> 00:29:47,799
Golden State per thirty six minutes, he's three point two

651
00:29:47,839 --> 00:29:49,799
this year for the Rockets. He was three point two

652
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:51,279
and three point oh his last.

653
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 3: Two years there. This is just who he is.

654
00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 2: He turns the ball over some, as you mentioned, he's

655
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,079
six ten, six eleven whatever, and you're just not gonna

656
00:29:59,119 --> 00:30:01,440
have a tight handle. And then there are some bad

657
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,759
passes that are gonna be made. And that's just kind

658
00:30:04,839 --> 00:30:07,000
of who he is. It would look a lot better

659
00:30:07,079 --> 00:30:08,599
if you had a real point guard. He didn't have

660
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,559
to give him the ball as much. But Kevin Durant

661
00:30:10,559 --> 00:30:12,400
turns the ball over. He's done it his entire career

662
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,240
and he's doing it right now as a Houston Rocket.

663
00:30:14,359 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 3: And he made a dook. Isn't having him bring the

664
00:30:16,039 --> 00:30:17,519
ball up every single time?

665
00:30:17,799 --> 00:30:20,400
Speaker 2: And they did. They didn't necessarily make adjustments. They were

666
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,279
just they fine tune, and they were sharper against double teams.

667
00:30:23,359 --> 00:30:25,160
And oh, by the way, it helps having Alprin Shan

668
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,200
Gun being the guy coming to help when you have

669
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:31,640
a double team rather than Dorian Finney Smith. All right,

670
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,119
I'm gonna put you on tape duty because I know

671
00:30:33,759 --> 00:30:36,480
all you have to do. Let's go last thirty possessions.

672
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,079
I saw Jabari Smith come up in court. I saw

673
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,480
Man Thompson do it. I saw Alprin Shangoon do it.

674
00:30:41,559 --> 00:30:43,720
I saw Jabari Smith do it. I saw Kevin Durant

675
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:43,920
do it.

676
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:45,599
Speaker 3: So they were doing that a lot. They would have

677
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:46,680
This is what they were doing.

678
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 2: They were putting Durant at the at the left elbow,

679
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,000
and then they were putting Alprin Shangoon at the right elbow.

680
00:30:51,039 --> 00:30:54,119
Then they'd have the ballhandler come up in the middle,

681
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:57,119
whether it be you mentioned a Men Thompson, Jabari Smith Junior,

682
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,240
whoever it is. Then they would pass it to Kevin

683
00:30:59,319 --> 00:31:01,519
Durant and Goon would come on a screen. They were

684
00:31:01,559 --> 00:31:04,279
baiting the double teams. So they baited the double teams.

685
00:31:04,319 --> 00:31:06,640
And then once they did that, Kevin Durant was ready

686
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,200
for it, and then he would find out brinshing gun

687
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,720
who would get rolling downhill. They broke that double team

688
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,119
a number of times with that exact set, knowing that

689
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,880
double teams were going. So there were adjustments and there

690
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,519
were improvements in that game last night. Unfortunately, it came

691
00:31:19,599 --> 00:31:21,519
a little too little, too late in terms of the

692
00:31:21,599 --> 00:31:22,480
run they were able to make.

693
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,759
Speaker 3: And then Luka Donci went nuclear in the last three minutes.

694
00:31:25,559 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 2: He went nuclear, And to JJ Reddick's credit, I think

695
00:31:30,759 --> 00:31:34,799
he had a handful of players on the Rockets roster

696
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:36,920
in his mind that he told his guys, anytime this

697
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:40,599
person shoots, somebody leak out, let's catch them.

698
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, in transition, and that happened way too much time.

699
00:31:43,359 --> 00:31:46,279
Speaker 2: I don't know, yeah exactly, cause you know, I'm just

700
00:31:46,319 --> 00:31:49,680
watching the games, and it's a different perspective than TV

701
00:31:49,759 --> 00:31:51,319
where you can go back and rewind and see what

702
00:31:51,359 --> 00:31:53,440
the heck with the deal was. But you're absolutely right.

703
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,960
They had twenty one fast break points. It felt like

704
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,039
even more than that they were leaking out. And again

705
00:31:59,079 --> 00:32:01,759
we brought up earlier the twenty to twelve turnovers led

706
00:32:01,799 --> 00:32:04,559
to twenty three points for the UH For the Los

707
00:32:04,599 --> 00:32:10,119
Angeles Lakers in that game, there was one out of

708
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,400
eighty two. We could just say, oh you know what, hey,

709
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,599
Lakers had your number. Luca went crazy. No, it was

710
00:32:14,599 --> 00:32:16,079
a big game. It was a big game, huge game.

711
00:32:16,119 --> 00:32:18,160
It was a tiebreaker type game. Yeah, there was a

712
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:20,319
lot of things on the lines. It hurts, it does,

713
00:32:20,599 --> 00:32:23,359
especially after Monday. You wanted to bounce back with the

714
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,839
victory after Monday was an absolute disaster in the fourth quarter.

715
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,039
But it was they were two different games. They just

716
00:32:29,079 --> 00:32:31,960

00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,079
little too high class for me. All right, Well, you're

738
00:33:32,119 --> 00:33:34,519
talking about stuff I never heard of, vacationing in places

739
00:33:34,519 --> 00:33:37,720
I never even knew existed. That's right. They're probably in

740
00:33:37,799 --> 00:33:39,880
Bora bor right now as we speak. I'm just trying

741
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:45,279
to save up from my trip to Freeport. I was

742
00:33:45,279 --> 00:33:47,039
gonna say something about Freeport, but I told you I

743
00:33:47,079 --> 00:33:49,319
wasn't gonna say. But it's nice. I wasn't gonna do anything,

744
00:33:51,039 --> 00:33:53,279
all right, So I got a new meth Land by

745
00:33:53,359 --> 00:33:59,440

746
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:00,480

747
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:04,759
Speaker 3: They got some new plastic chairs. All right, all right,

748
00:34:04,759 --> 00:34:05,160

Speaker 2: So the term it starts at eleven fifteen, yes, sir fifty, yes,

750
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:14,360
stagger games all throughout the course today Ohio State and

751
00:34:14,559 --> 00:34:18,360
TCU first game on CBS coming our way, Matt by

752
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:22,719
the way, Miami, Ohio was an underdog yesterday, Yes and

753
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:27,119
one yes over SMU. Yes, so the RedHawks are in,

754
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,199
They're in in. I did not see the game because

755
00:34:30,199 --> 00:34:35,880
obviously I was working rockets. Apparently the Miami RedHawks what the.

756
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 3: Other bombing threes? Go ahead?

757
00:34:38,039 --> 00:34:39,199
Speaker 2: The swim team.

00:34:39,079 --> 00:34:39,599
Speaker 3: Was at the game.

759
00:34:39,679 --> 00:34:45,039
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and I see nothing wrong with this. I

760
00:34:45,079 --> 00:34:51,840
know you do, don't. So whatever it takes, right, that's cool. Yeah.

761
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 3: How far is Miami from Dayton.

762
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,039
Speaker 2: It's gotta be an hour maybe, Okay, you know Ohio's

763
00:34:56,039 --> 00:34:58,199
that not that big? Mean you're the small town Ohio expert.

764
00:34:58,199 --> 00:34:59,559
That's why I asked. I've never done a game in

765
00:34:59,599 --> 00:35:01,800
Miami my entire life. I don't even know where it is,

766
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,599
all right. I couldn't even say what city is it in.

767
00:35:04,559 --> 00:35:05,920
I don't think it's Miami. I don't think it's it's

768
00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:07,199
not Miami. I don't think it is.

769
00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:08,760
Speaker 3: I assumed it.

770
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,719
Speaker 2: Hold on, now, I feel stupid. No, I feel stupid.

771
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:19,199
Speaker 3: Hold on, Miami, it's a it's an Oxford.

772
00:35:19,639 --> 00:35:20,800
Speaker 2: Why is they called Miami?

773
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:21,760
Speaker 3: I don't know.

774
00:35:24,039 --> 00:35:27,199
Speaker 2: See I'm the stupid. Apparently it's a public university known

775
00:35:27,199 --> 00:35:29,719
for its quote public ivy, for providing a hand quality

776
00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:34,039
education and a public school costs. Some about that assumed

777
00:35:34,079 --> 00:35:40,559
it was like in Miami. It's called Miami. Ohiow you

778
00:35:40,639 --> 00:35:43,400
know what. It's their fault, not ours. It's a Miami.

779
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,599
Miami is a tribe or something, right. I know you're

780
00:35:46,639 --> 00:35:48,239
asking me. I just gave you the city it was.

781
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,360
That's all I can provide. Yes, my the Miami tribe

782
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:55,239
or down the stream people Algonquin speaking nation originally from

783
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,519
the Wabash River in Indiana, Ohio and Illinois.

784
00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 3: So there you go. Is that Tomorrow's believe it or not?

785
00:35:59,559 --> 00:36:00,360
Right there, locked and.

786
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,519
Speaker 2: Loaders they win. Uh, you know they don't. They don't

787
00:36:03,519 --> 00:36:05,400
play untill tomorrow. So that's a good a good spot.

788
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:06,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll figure it out.

789
00:36:06,679 --> 00:36:10,039
Speaker 2: So, Uh, your longhorns are in Portland. Yes, that's a

790
00:36:10,079 --> 00:36:11,840
long win to go from dan't know how to Portland

791
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,800
to play a game two days later. They'll be fine.

792
00:36:16,679 --> 00:36:20,880
Our cougars are taking point Idaho vandals. Yes, I couldn't

793
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,480
name one vandal to save your life. That's fine. I'm

794
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:24,920
not a matter of fact, we're not talking to Joseph

795
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,039
Dwart today. We're gonna talk to him tomorrow because really

796
00:36:27,159 --> 00:36:28,760
I've already assumed the victory today.

797
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:29,360
Speaker 3: Yeah you should.

798
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,199
Speaker 2: Kelvin Sampson's boys are gonna take care of business. And

799
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,079
guess what, I'm taking a Couga's minus at twenty three

800
00:36:35,079 --> 00:36:36,840
and a half. That's my Loctober pick.

801

00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:43,960

00:36:44,079 --> 00:36:44,519
Speaker 3: Really fast.

806
00:36:44,639 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 2: We get to drant briming. That's all right about the seating.

807
00:36:49,159 --> 00:36:51,440
We'll go off certainly off the Vegas line. On oh

00:36:51,599 --> 00:36:56,239

and M to beat Saint Mary's ten beat over a seven.

814
00:37:11,119 --> 00:37:13,840

815
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,800
half point spread, it's a point I think.

00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,320
one more. I'm gonna write these down, write these down.

820
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,039
I'll bring them up. If you get them wrong, I

821
00:37:28,039 --> 00:37:29,679
forget them right. You'll never mention them right, of course.

822
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:30,559
Speaker 3: That's that's okay.

823
00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:32,559
Speaker 2: So I've already got I've got for you.

824
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 3: VC. You beating?

825
00:37:33,559 --> 00:37:35,440
Speaker 2: I know what did I say? I said v A

826
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,280
and m over Saint Mary's This one I don't feel

827
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:38,760
great about.

828
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,559
Speaker 3: Are you going Howard over Michigan? That's a that's a

829
00:37:40,599 --> 00:37:41,039
bold pick.

830
00:37:41,119 --> 00:37:41,320
Speaker 11: Math.

831
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,760
Speaker 2: I'm not doing that one. I'm gonna go Tower Boys, caball.

832
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:47,599
South Florida beats Louisville.

833
00:37:48,599 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 3: There, I said it. I feel great saying South Florida

834
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,360
over long. Oh that's not crazy, is it?

835
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:59,039
Speaker 2: Louisville. Don't they have an injury or something? I think

836
00:37:59,039 --> 00:38:00,519
they got somebody hurt. And that's four and a half.

837
00:38:00,559 --> 00:38:02,280
I believe his name is Joe. Yeah, four and a half.

838
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 3: Okay, South Float on a recorded line. Okay, that's at

839
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:08,039
twelve thirty.

840
00:38:08,159 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm getting excited. I like this too, because Longhorns

841
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,000
at six is great, like you winners.

842
00:38:15,599 --> 00:38:16,079
Speaker 3: At nine to ten.

843
00:38:16,079 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 2: They've better have the thing done because I want to

844
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:18,559
go to bed by ten. You don't want your team

845
00:38:18,559 --> 00:38:20,599
playing at eleven fifteen. You don't want your team no

846
00:38:20,639 --> 00:38:22,559
disrespect to the Cougars. You don't want your team playing

847
00:38:22,559 --> 00:38:23,920
at nine. I'm not thrilled about it.

848
00:38:24,079 --> 00:38:26,760
Speaker 3: I mean six o'clock, six twenty five. So that's a

849
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:28,119
wheelhouse spot exactly.

850
00:38:28,159 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 2: You get a good six hours of action to whet

851
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:31,840
your appetite, then your team plays at six, you're ready

852
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:33,760
to run, and then you can fall asleep at nine o'clock.

853
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,079
Absolutely hopefully you'll sleep in your own bomb. You're fall

854
00:38:36,119 --> 00:38:40,199
asleep watching the quad box with the Idaho Vandals and

855
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,480
the University of Houston Cougars. That's the only ready to

856
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:47,960
make those blowouts interesting, means anybody, if you're not betting

857
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,800
the points spread or you're not a fan of the team,

858
00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:52,440
is there any chance you're really invested in when the

859
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,599
children's left thirty? Unlett, Well, the only reason why you're

860
00:38:55,599 --> 00:38:57,159
watching any of those games is if something was in

861
00:38:57,199 --> 00:38:58,119
two points with the teams you.

862
00:38:58,199 --> 00:38:59,039
Speaker 3: Never heard of before.

863
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:05,039
Speaker 2: McTaggart Brian McTaggart, a fine Cougar fan himself, Yes he is.

864
00:39:05,199 --> 00:39:07,800
Joe Kooks joins his next from Florida. This is Sports

865
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:08,360
Talk sivin.

866
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:09,119
Speaker 3: I can't wait.

867
00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:16,320
Speaker 1: Is the Matt Thomas Show with Ross.

868
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,079
Speaker 2: Oh, You're gonna love Thursdays at eleven o'clock on The

869
00:39:19,119 --> 00:39:22,480
Mat Thomas Show with Ross for the next twenty six weeks.

870
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,719
You loved it last week with Brian mctagger made his

871
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,440
season debut with US, and now he's with us.

872
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:27,280
Speaker 3: Every Thursday again.

873
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:32,199
Speaker 2: Right now, joining us from the West Palm Beach metropolitan Area.

874
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:36,239
Brian McTaggart, Uh, First of all, first, good morning to you. Secondly,

875
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,480
how bad was those for those field conditions yesterday and Jupiter?

876
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,280
Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't I don't think they were super terrible.

877
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,639
Speaker 12: I mean it was just sort of it's right here

878
00:39:46,679 --> 00:39:50,199
for a couple of days pretty much NonStop, and so

879
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,480
there was a drizzle during the game. So I just

880
00:39:52,559 --> 00:39:54,440
don't think they wanted to take any chances.

881
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 8: I mean, look at the lineup they had out there.

882
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,239
Speaker 12: I mean they had pretty much their opening day lineup

883
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,159
out there except for Jeremy Panya, So they just wanted

884
00:40:01,199 --> 00:40:03,800
to take zero chances and when I saw Perettis come

885
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:05,280
off the field in the middle of the third, I

886
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:08,360
was like, Okay, I think I see what's.

887
00:40:08,199 --> 00:40:08,840
Speaker 8: Going on here.

888
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,519
Speaker 12: And then Alvarez left and then al Tuvey and yeah,

889
00:40:11,599 --> 00:40:13,880
they just he wanted those guys, I think, to get

890
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:15,800
four to five at three fourth bats. They ended up

891
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,000
getting just two, but they just didn't want to take

892
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:18,559
any chances.

893
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:24,599
Speaker 2: So, ironically enough, all the Twitter nervousness has meant was

894
00:40:24,639 --> 00:40:27,079
nothing correct. Andy's doing Okay, no injuries to report of

895
00:40:27,119 --> 00:40:27,760
as it this morning.

896
00:40:28,679 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 8: Yeah, no injuries. Uh yeah, everybody.

897
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,039
Speaker 12: I mean, the Astros play a night game, so no,

898
00:40:33,679 --> 00:40:35,480
none of the players are here yet. They do have

899
00:40:35,519 --> 00:40:39,119
the spring breakout prospect games about the start, but yeah,

900
00:40:39,159 --> 00:40:41,000
the major league club hasn't even reported yet.

901
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,199
Speaker 2: All right, before we get to the big picture on

902
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,679
the current twenty six, tell me about Walter Yannick and

903
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,280
tell me where he is, where he's going to be,

904
00:40:49,159 --> 00:40:53,400
and is he slow to move up the Astros organizational chart.

905
00:40:55,159 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 12: Well, he probably opened more eyes here in this camp

906
00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:01,280
than anybody else, especially when it came to prospects. I mean,

907
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,440
he really came in here and did a really good job.

908
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,840
I think everybody knew what he could do. Defensively, the

909
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,719
elite pop time, the arm strength, he showed all that

910
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:14,119
throwing behind runners at first base, showing off the arm.

911
00:41:14,199 --> 00:41:15,880
I mean, it's all there. I think he's got major

912
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:20,880
league ready defensive skills. Handled the pitchers pretty well, so

913
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:22,840
they were really really.

914
00:41:22,599 --> 00:41:23,559
Speaker 8: Pleased with what he did.

915
00:41:23,599 --> 00:41:25,920
Speaker 12: And then he swung the bat too, hit a home run,

916
00:41:27,079 --> 00:41:30,639
made more contact, just looked very comfortable up here against

917
00:41:30,639 --> 00:41:33,599
the pitching. So you know, he's a guy that has

918
00:41:33,599 --> 00:41:36,400
spent pretty much the last two years ever since he

919
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,719
got drafted at High A, and so yeah, he's going

920
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,559
to start the season I would say at Triple A

921
00:41:41,639 --> 00:41:44,679
Corporus Christi. He's from Corporus Christie his hometown, so some

922
00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,400
home cooking. But I could see him in Triple A

923
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:48,360
by the end of the year.

924
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,119
Speaker 8: And you know, who knows. I mean, we all know the.

925
00:41:51,119 --> 00:41:54,199
Speaker 12: Astros have a little bit of a drop off and

926
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:57,199
catching depth after a yainer, but we could I wouldn't

927
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:58,920
rule out seeing him in the big leagues by the

928
00:41:58,960 --> 00:41:59,400
end of the year.

929
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 8: But I think, sir Mixture, he's in the big leagues

930
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:02,119
all right.

931
00:42:02,159 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 2: Staying with the catcher's spot is Vasquez. The leader in

932
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,280
the clubhouse in your mind to be the number two

933
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:08,159
catcher behind you on.

934
00:42:08,119 --> 00:42:12,000
Speaker 12: You, I wouldn't necessarily say that, Matt. I mean, I

935
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,360
think the fact that Salazar has been here all camp

936
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:19,280
and he's so he's so widely respected in the clubhouse.

937
00:42:19,599 --> 00:42:23,000
You know, he's worked with these pictures all spring. You

938
00:42:23,039 --> 00:42:25,000
know he does swing a left handed bat, although you

939
00:42:25,039 --> 00:42:27,559
know he hasn't swung much of a bat. I'm not

940
00:42:27,599 --> 00:42:30,000
ready to say this is Basquez's job to lose. So

941
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:32,920
you know, Christian's first game, I think was it over

942
00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:34,599
and breaking from the other day. He did pretty well,

943
00:42:35,079 --> 00:42:37,519
So I think right now it's a coin toss. It's

944
00:42:37,519 --> 00:42:39,719
fifty to fifty depending what they're looking for. But I'm

945
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:41,599
not ready to rule out Salazar and making the opening

946
00:42:41,639 --> 00:42:42,159
day rosters.

947
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, but either way, Brian, it just doesn't seem like

948
00:42:45,639 --> 00:42:47,679
a great option. I mean, you know, Diez came into

949
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,599
camp with that foot sprain. Your your one aggravation or

950
00:42:50,639 --> 00:42:54,039
any kind of injury away from having to put Salazar

951
00:42:54,199 --> 00:42:56,480
or even a Vasquez who hasn't put up good numbers

952
00:42:56,519 --> 00:42:59,360
in a couple of years out there every single day.

953
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:04,679
I mean, how much of a should alarm bells be

954
00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:06,960
going off. I mean, it feels like it's not necessarily

955
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:08,480
something we're talking about every day.

956
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,079
Speaker 3: But you could be in a bad situation here with

957
00:43:11,199 --> 00:43:11,639
just one.

958
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:15,199
Speaker 12: Injury, Yeah you could. I mean, they do have some

959
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:17,239
death at the position. You know, they got Carlos Perez

960
00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:18,280
who's been in the big leagues.

961
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:18,679
Speaker 8: But I get it.

962
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:22,159
Speaker 12: I mean, it's not the drop off after Daz Is.

963
00:43:22,199 --> 00:43:25,320
There's nobody you'd feel comfortable with getting the everyday starts.

964
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:28,159
But you know, I'll keep an eye over the next week.

965
00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,119
Some guys are going to be getting cut from camps

966
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:31,840
right at the end of camp.

967
00:43:32,119 --> 00:43:32,800
Speaker 8: You know, maybe if.

968
00:43:32,679 --> 00:43:35,800
Speaker 12: There's a catcher that they like who they feel maybe

969
00:43:35,840 --> 00:43:38,079
is a better option for their backup catcher, they can

970
00:43:38,119 --> 00:43:40,239
go and try to nab somebody off the off waivers

971
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,719
or make a trade or whatever. But yeah, it is

972
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:45,639
a concern, but you're right, they have to hope you

973
00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:48,159
on or DS stays healthy at a position that's very

974
00:43:48,199 --> 00:43:51,159
demanding and your one foul hit away from going on

975
00:43:51,199 --> 00:43:53,000
the IL. So it's I think it's something they're going

976
00:43:53,039 --> 00:43:54,800
to be keeping an eye on other team's rosters here

977
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:55,840
for the next few days.

978
00:43:56,559 --> 00:43:59,280
Speaker 2: Brian McTaggart with us here on a Sports Talk seven

979
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:03,400
ninety cover in the Astros for MLB dot Com. Tell

980
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:08,320
me what you're seeing hearing everything about Bryce Matthews in

981
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,920
terms of his work in the field, at the plate

982
00:44:11,119 --> 00:44:13,400
and what type of role he could possibly carve out.

983
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,519
I know you had him making the roster in your projection.

984
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,519
Speaker 12: Yeah, I had him making the roster if if Penya

985
00:44:20,719 --> 00:44:23,920
starts to starts the season on the il, which I

986
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:25,920
think right now again is probably a.

987
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 8: Fifty to fifty proposition.

988
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:29,599
Speaker 12: He's supposed to grab a bat and starts swinging this weekend,

989
00:44:29,599 --> 00:44:32,039
which leads me to believe that he might be ready

990
00:44:32,079 --> 00:44:34,280
for the start of the season. But you know, Bryce

991
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,760
has had a pretty good spring. You know, he's got

992
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:39,480
a homer, driven in some runs, he's stolen some bases

993
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:40,599
and drawn some watch.

994
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:41,199
Speaker 8: Which they really like.

995
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 12: If he makes this club, it will be obviously as

996
00:44:44,159 --> 00:44:46,159
kind of the last guy off the bench. He can

997
00:44:46,159 --> 00:44:50,480
play some second if they have to, you know, maybe

998
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:54,079
put out two vy in DH or he can certainly

999
00:44:54,079 --> 00:44:56,880
play center field as well. So I don't think he

1000
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,519
would get a ton of a bats. You know, he's

1001
00:44:59,519 --> 00:45:02,719
probably better served to go to Triple A and then

1002
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:04,599
and then be ready for a call up. They don't

1003
00:45:04,599 --> 00:45:07,559
seem really motivated to play him at shortstop going forward, the.

1004
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:10,199
Speaker 8: Position he was drafted at. So but he's looked pretty

1005
00:45:10,199 --> 00:45:12,119
good in the outfield. He's I mean, he's very athletic.

1006
00:45:12,159 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 12: We know he was a you know, a star quarterback

1007
00:45:14,159 --> 00:45:16,440
at a task of SEAA, so he can certainly, he

1008
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,679
certainly has the athleticism to handle center field.

1009
00:45:20,039 --> 00:45:23,039
Speaker 2: Ryan mctagger with us from West Palm Beach are MLB

1010
00:45:23,159 --> 00:45:25,840
Astros insigner with us every Thursday at eleven o'clock here

1011
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:29,400
on Sports Talk seven ninety is ten or Tremmeell fighting

1012
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,239
for a spot or am I just looking at March

1013
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:33,519
numbers and going, man, that nice camp, But we know

1014
00:45:33,559 --> 00:45:34,039
who he is.

1015
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:38,719
Speaker 12: Ultimately, I think he I think he's got a really

1016
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:39,800
good shot to make the team.

1017
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:41,360
Speaker 8: Maybe he's not on the forty man, so they would

1018
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:42,440
have to create a spot for him.

1019
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 12: But if you look at the guys that are battling

1020
00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:48,679
for those four outfield spots, I mean Jake Myers of

1021
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:52,079
course has made the team. I think I think Cam

1022
00:45:52,079 --> 00:45:54,119
Smith has made the team at this point. He's had

1023
00:45:54,119 --> 00:45:56,840
a pretty good spring. Eight seventy one ops. Joey Low

1024
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,400
Berfeedos had a great spring, so I think he's a

1025
00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:02,960
lot So I think it'll come down to Tremmel or

1026
00:46:03,039 --> 00:46:03,599
Zach Cole.

1027
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:04,880
Speaker 8: They both hit left.

1028
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,760
Speaker 12: Handed, both have a little bit of pop, can both

1029
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:10,360
play all three outfield positions. But but Cole just has

1030
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,679
not swung the back very well this spring. He's six

1031
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:16,079
for thirty two with sixteen strikeouts, which I think is

1032
00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:19,119
a big concern. So he hasn't even played at Triple

1033
00:46:19,159 --> 00:46:22,800
A yet very much. So I think I think Cole

1034
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,400
right now begins the season in Triple A. And I

1035
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,440
think Tremell makes this team because he has had a

1036
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,559
solid camp yet you do know what you're getting, but

1037
00:46:31,039 --> 00:46:33,079
you also know what you're getting and you know you

1038
00:46:33,119 --> 00:46:36,239
can put him in any of those outfield spots. He's

1039
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,280
going to give you some good defense and he will

1040
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:39,920
give you a good at bat off the bench from

1041
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:41,000
from the left side.

1042
00:46:42,159 --> 00:46:46,039
Speaker 2: When you said sixteen strikeouts, might jaw drop Brian, That's

1043
00:46:46,079 --> 00:46:46,880
that's a terrible ad.

1044
00:46:47,039 --> 00:46:48,039
Speaker 3: That's a terrible number.

1045
00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,199
Speaker 12: It's fifty, I mean, and that that was the thing

1046
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,440
on him coming up is he's very aggressive at the play.

1047
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,400
You know, he's a swing card and he makes contact.

1048
00:46:57,480 --> 00:46:59,320
He hits the ball hard, and he has hit the

1049
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:01,559
ball hard, but he sent the ball hard on the ground.

1050
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,719
But there's just too much swing in this yet. So

1051
00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:07,800
I know it's something that that they're working on with him,

1052
00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:11,800
but that's that's just a lot of swinging this. So yeah,

1053
00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,320
I think he'll be in Triple A and they'll try

1054
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:15,960
to get that ironed out before we see him back

1055
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:16,400
up here.

1056
00:47:17,119 --> 00:47:20,559
Speaker 2: Staying with the outfield, Jordan has been pulled twice because

1057
00:47:20,559 --> 00:47:25,480
of weather to play the outfield. How anxious when you

1058
00:47:25,519 --> 00:47:27,840
walk around the clubhouse is He's like, man, I got

1059
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:30,159
this glove. I want to use it. Is he getting

1060
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,280
enough working left field for his satisfaction? My guess is

1061
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:33,400
probably the answer is not to that.

1062
00:47:35,519 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1063
00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:36,840
Speaker 12: I mean he's done a lot of work on the

1064
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,760
backfield too. So Jordan likes to play the outfield. I

1065
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,119
mean he he would like to be out there a

1066
00:47:42,159 --> 00:47:45,920
couple of times a week. And when they signed him

1067
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,280
to that big contract, they didn't sign him as a dace.

1068
00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,079
They signed him as an outfielder, and you know, he

1069
00:47:50,159 --> 00:47:51,960
really likes to do it. Is he a great outfielder?

1070
00:47:52,079 --> 00:47:52,159
Speaker 13: No?

1071
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:53,000
Speaker 8: Is he a butcher?

1072
00:47:53,679 --> 00:47:53,840
Speaker 6: No?

1073
00:47:54,559 --> 00:47:56,239
Speaker 8: But I think the Astros know that they.

1074
00:47:56,199 --> 00:47:58,320
Speaker 12: Would like to get a little more athletic out there,

1075
00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:00,039
which is, you know, kind of their goal with the

1076
00:48:00,039 --> 00:48:03,559
way their outfield is configured right now. So we can

1077
00:48:03,599 --> 00:48:05,239
still see him out here next few games. I mean,

1078
00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:07,079
they only have what four games left here, a couple

1079
00:48:07,119 --> 00:48:08,440
of couple of Dike in park.

1080
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:11,199
Speaker 8: So he is going to play outfield this year. Not

1081
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:12,000
a ton, but.

1082
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:14,559
Speaker 12: Yeah, we will see him out there, and he wants

1083
00:48:14,599 --> 00:48:17,599
to do it, and I think Joe's going to keep

1084
00:48:17,639 --> 00:48:19,599
him out there enough to keep him fresh and left field.

1085
00:48:21,199 --> 00:48:23,360
Speaker 2: You mentioned or we were talking about Jake Myers, they were

1086
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:24,559
talking about the outfield earlier.

1087
00:48:24,559 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 3: It's funny to me, it was all off.

1088
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,199
Speaker 2: Season it just seemed like an eventuality that he was

1089
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:32,199
going to be traded away. And then of course on

1090
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,199
the East sick Paradus thing I mean is that are

1091
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:37,119
we just assuming that neither or either of those trades

1092
00:48:37,159 --> 00:48:39,599
are just not going to be made.

1093
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,519
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean I thought all off season that Myers

1094
00:48:42,559 --> 00:48:44,599
would get traded and I wrote that several times. I

1095
00:48:44,599 --> 00:48:46,559
mean I wasn't guessing. I'm telling you know this, these

1096
00:48:46,559 --> 00:48:48,639
are things I was being told. I mean, they obviously

1097
00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:52,360
were shipping him around. It didn't happen. You know, obviously

1098
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,400
they've tried to trade Perettis this spring as well. You know,

1099
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:57,559
the chances I keep getting told are slim.

1100
00:48:57,719 --> 00:48:58,679
Speaker 8: Is just there's just.

1101
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:02,039
Speaker 12: A fine margin with with what the Astros want in return.

1102
00:49:03,159 --> 00:49:05,559
So yeah, I mean, it looks like unless something happen,

1103
00:49:05,599 --> 00:49:07,960
we're a week from opening day. But this next week,

1104
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:10,719
like I said, is going to be a rosters are

1105
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:12,039
going to be changing here left and right.

1106
00:49:12,079 --> 00:49:13,679
Speaker 8: Some guys are going to get cut from teams.

1107
00:49:14,199 --> 00:49:17,639
Speaker 12: Some teams are going to get desperate, you know, maybe

1108
00:49:17,639 --> 00:49:20,239
somebody needs a center fielder and wants to make a

1109
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,840
deal with the Astros, or or maybe the Red Sox say, hey,

1110
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,320
we would like Peretis after all, so maybe they can

1111
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:26,880
make a deal.

1112
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:28,760
Speaker 8: So I would say more.

1113
00:49:28,679 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 12: Likely than not, just because where we're at in the

1114
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,880
calendar that both Myers and Peretis are on the opening

1115
00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,800
day roster. But some things could happen here in the

1116
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:37,960
next few days. They could with other teams that could

1117
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:41,079
force the Astros maybe to make a deal and change

1118
00:49:41,079 --> 00:49:43,800
their roster up a little bit as well.

1119
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 2: Brian, final question, any clarity to the back end of

1120
00:49:47,519 --> 00:49:50,119
the Astros rotation. I think I've got a pretty good

1121
00:49:50,119 --> 00:49:53,800
feel of one through three. How's my four to five

1122
00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:54,960
and potentially six?

1123
00:49:55,039 --> 00:49:57,920
Speaker 8: Look at this point, well, what are your one through three?

1124
00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:08,360
Speaker 2: I'd probably Hunter Brown, Hobbyer, Emi Burrows makes four, so

1125
00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,480
maybe I could go five six. Help me out with

1126
00:50:10,519 --> 00:50:11,079
five to six.

1127
00:50:13,039 --> 00:50:15,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean Lance mccullochs Junior is in this rotation.

1128
00:50:15,559 --> 00:50:19,000
Speaker 12: I mean he's he's throwing the ball pretty well this spring.

1129
00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:23,239
Speaker 8: Uh, So I think he's in there. That's five.

1130
00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:26,920
Speaker 12: And then it comes down to Arraghetty in that sixth spot,

1131
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:29,199
and I guess it comes it's a question of whether

1132
00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:31,920
do they open the season in a five man rotation

1133
00:50:32,119 --> 00:50:34,400
or a six man rotation. And even if it's a

1134
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,480
six man a five man rotation, maybe Arraghetty makes it

1135
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:39,519
in the bullpen and he throws a couple of.

1136
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,679
Speaker 8: Times in long relief and then and then uh gets

1137
00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:42,519
put in the rotation.

1138
00:50:42,639 --> 00:50:46,280
Speaker 12: But I think it's pretty clear who their five rotation

1139
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:50,360
guys are going to be, with Aarraghetty Uh being that

1140
00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:52,039
six guy if they choose to go to a six

1141
00:50:52,079 --> 00:50:55,559
man rotation right now, so that gives him some pretty

1142
00:50:55,559 --> 00:50:58,320
good options down in Triple A after the season starts.

1143
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:01,559
I mean they have Alexander down there, Colton Gordon's down there.

1144
00:51:02,639 --> 00:51:04,920
JP Franz will probably be in that triple A rotation.

1145
00:51:05,079 --> 00:51:07,960
So they've built this pitching depth and so far it

1146
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,920
looks like it's done pretty well because the guys like

1147
00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:14,840
Burrows and Emi, the additions to the rotation have been

1148
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:16,400
terrific and great Fruit League play.

1149
00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:20,159
Speaker 2: Could you see a scenario, and I only said one question,

1150
00:51:20,199 --> 00:51:23,559
I'll give you one more, could you see a piggyback

1151
00:51:23,639 --> 00:51:27,119
between mccullors and Arrogaty is maybe your first two guys

1152
00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:29,199
on a night where those two guys are ready to

1153
00:51:29,199 --> 00:51:30,400
throw and go in the same game.

1154
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:34,920
Speaker 12: Yeah, I could definitely see that. Yeah, I think that's

1155
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:37,119
a real distinct possibility. And they're going to have a

1156
00:51:37,159 --> 00:51:39,320
couple of guys in the bullpen. I think they're going

1157
00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,280
to be capable of doing those multiple innings. There's a

1158
00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,760
guy starting tomorrow, Peter Lambert. He's going to start the

1159
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:48,639
game tomorrow against the Marlins, who was a non roster guy,

1160
00:51:49,079 --> 00:51:51,039
has big league time with the Rockies. But he's throwing

1161
00:51:51,039 --> 00:51:53,760
the ball really, really well. Nine innings. I think he

1162
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:55,880
might have given up one run and throwing the ball hard.

1163
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,440
So he's the guy that could get multiple innings out

1164
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:00,719
of the bullpen. If kay Wayne Tay next to the team,

1165
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:02,800
you know he started a game down here, he could

1166
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:06,119
also pitch behind another starter throw three or you know,

1167
00:52:06,159 --> 00:52:08,719
two or three innings. So uh, their goal is to

1168
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:11,840
have two or three of those multi inning got Ryan Wiss.

1169
00:52:11,639 --> 00:52:12,199
Speaker 8: Is another one.

1170
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:14,880
Speaker 12: Another guy who's throwing the ball really well. Another newcomer

1171
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,239
or newcomer, a guy who wants to be a starter,

1172
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:19,280
but it looks like he'll be long relief from the pen.

1173
00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:22,239
So yeah, I don't think they'll call it a piggyback,

1174
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,039
but they have They have lots of options where they can. Uh,

1175
00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,000
if the starter comes out after five innings, they feel

1176
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,119
pretty comfortable about the guys coming behind them to get

1177
00:52:30,119 --> 00:52:31,159
the ball to the ninth inning.

1178
00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:35,800
Speaker 2: Where is the West Palm Beach University, Houston watch party tonight.

1179
00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:38,199
Speaker 8: That's a good question.

1180
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:40,960
Speaker 12: I saw the games on True TV, which has me

1181
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:44,320
a little worried, and so, uh, I don't know who

1182
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,400
have to find a Duffi's or a nail house in

1183
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:49,599
the the immediate area and scattered out, But uh, I

1184
00:52:49,599 --> 00:52:51,159
think it might be a watch party of one.

1185
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:52,559
Speaker 8: But but I'll be there.

1186
00:52:53,159 --> 00:52:54,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, but a lot of your parties are a party

1187
00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:57,119
of one, aren't They tell the truth pretty much?

1188
00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:01,599
Speaker 8: I'm used to it. It's kind of fast.

1249
00:55:39,679 --> 00:55:41,840
a bad promotion in your life?

1250
00:55:41,199 --> 00:55:44,000
Speaker 3: I shoot a photol I've got you about one hundred

1251
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:45,360
of those of my office. I'm at the house. I

1252
00:55:45,559 --> 00:55:50,199
I'm beginning to think you've got an issue. Yes, I

1253
00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:53,719
don't know. Morning is often an indicator of mental disease.

1254
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:56,119
Speaker 2: But the best example was we were in a city

1255
00:55:56,159 --> 00:55:57,639
for two or three days. I remember where it was,

1256
00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:01,079
but they would clean my room in the morning, okay,

1257
00:56:01,119 --> 00:56:03,639
and I would take the pad. Then I would ask

1258
00:56:03,639 --> 00:56:05,719
for turndown service at night and they would give me

1259
00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:06,480
fresh pads.

1260
00:56:09,079 --> 00:56:11,199
Speaker 3: What is wrong with you? We all have a little

1261
00:56:11,239 --> 00:56:14,519
things like that. You mean, there's nothing in your house

1262
00:56:14,559 --> 00:56:16,719
that you don't have like a big group of.

1263
00:56:17,199 --> 00:56:19,199
Speaker 2: A big like pile of stuff like it.

1264
00:56:19,480 --> 00:56:20,039
Speaker 3: I regret.

1265
00:56:20,119 --> 00:56:23,360
Speaker 2: One of my best friends collects hot wheels. That doesn't

1266
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,920
mean that doesn't intrigue me. But he loves it, and

1267
00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:27,800
I don't blame him for it. It's it's his own deal.

1268
00:56:28,159 --> 00:56:30,599
I like no pads, okay, I you know, I told

1269
00:56:30,639 --> 00:56:33,039
you where do I like to just spend more time

1270
00:56:33,199 --> 00:56:35,360
besides my family, hanging out with you at an office

1271
00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:36,920
Max or a Staples.

1272
00:56:36,599 --> 00:56:39,159
Speaker 3: Or a home or office max for like an hour

1273
00:56:39,199 --> 00:56:39,800
there for an hour.

1274
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:40,840
Speaker 2: I don't want to leave.

1275
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:43,199
Speaker 3: I mean, you got me a nice I'm using and

1276
00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:44,239
trying to use it every day.

1277
00:56:44,519 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 2: Yeah you are. I'm so happy for you. All right,

1278
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,079
So we decided we had an executive decision with this

1279
00:56:49,079 --> 00:56:50,599
will be the second time we've done this. We're gonna

1280
00:56:50,559 --> 00:56:53,920
do a fantasy vive tomorrow. Jonathan, jump in on this,

1281
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:55,880
because you're gonna be one of the voters. Oh, how

1282
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:57,199
about we have to do it?

1283
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:02,599
Speaker 3: Ooh, John, Jonathan, it's who you don't know.

1284
00:57:02,679 --> 00:57:06,639
Speaker 2: Nobody ever works on Friday at the office. I want

1285
00:57:06,639 --> 00:57:08,519
to accuse myself. I don't know I could do it,

1286
00:57:08,840 --> 00:57:10,559
you know what, but I think we've done it recently.

1287
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:12,320
Why don't you want to ask one of the Adams

1288
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:16,239
at once tomorrow? Plan it'll be because I think we'll

1289
00:57:16,239 --> 00:57:17,440
make fun of his bad palate.

1290
00:57:17,519 --> 00:57:18,440
Speaker 3: It's got to be Clanning.

1291
00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 2: No, let's go Wexler. Let's invite Wexler, Jonathan. We're gonna

1292
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:26,800
do a Master's meal. Okay, Master's meal? Okay? You know

1293
00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:29,239
because when you win the Masters the next year, you

1294
00:57:29,239 --> 00:57:29,960
get to choose the.

1295
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:31,559

1297
00:57:40,039 --> 00:57:40,880

00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:47,519
Speaker 2: Okay? One app two entrees aside in a dessert, and

1302
00:57:57,800 --> 00:57:59,119

00:57:59,159 --> 00:58:00,760
five or six years ago, and I beat you.

1304
00:58:01,719 --> 00:58:04,039
Speaker 2: I think it was more recently than that. Yeah, you

1305
00:58:04,079 --> 00:58:06,719

1306
00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:07,800
Speaker 3: That shocks you.

1307
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 2: The only thing I remember about that was I think

1308
00:58:09,480 --> 00:58:10,920
my dessert was banana cream pie.

1309
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,880
Speaker 3: You had some horrible dessert. I can't remember what it was.

1310
00:58:13,960 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 2: Banana cream pie is delicious.

1311
00:58:16,599 --> 00:58:18,559
Speaker 3: I think it was Nila wafers. It was not.

1312
00:58:18,679 --> 00:58:22,519
Speaker 2: No vanilla banana cream pie is on the mount. Rushmore pies.

1313
00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:31,920
Banana cream pie, absolutely okay, Banana cream cherry, No coconut cream, pumpkin.

00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:48,320
Fantasy five with pies. We could.

1320
00:58:48,719 --> 00:58:52,000
Speaker 3: We never done that before. At least that's a slightly

1321
00:58:52,039 --> 00:58:52,760
better than soups.

1322
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 2: Soup was amazing.

1323
00:58:56,039 --> 00:58:58,480
Speaker 3: The eighth round, I'm gonna take a bean and bacon.

1324
00:58:58,519 --> 00:59:00,599
Speaking of her, my gumbo is derived.

1325
00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:02,440
Speaker 2: Look at this.

1326
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,840
Speaker 3: Hold on, we got a dog rule over the winner's eyes.

1327
00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:06,400
How I got a dog ruin that gumbo?

1328
00:59:06,519 --> 00:59:10,280
Speaker 2: Now? Baby, excuse me to go caju.

1329
00:59:10,440 --> 00:59:12,719
Speaker 3: Hey, you got a gumbo. Now, that's not my fault,

1330
00:59:13,119 --> 00:59:13,480
all right.

1331
00:59:14,239 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 2: Sorry, wait, if I just don't get it coming up

1332
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:17,760
at the bottom of the air, I don't get you

1333
00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:20,320
and your gun. Why aren't you doing the show in Lafayette.

1334
00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:22,719
You could be a star Louisiana, Ryan, I'll be a

1335
00:59:22,719 --> 00:59:27,280
start anywhere. Seven one three two one two five seven

1336
00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:29,960
Do he seven one three two one two five anything

1337
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:34,440
out of Brian's conversation real quick? It makes him sound

1338
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:36,679
like the rotation is already set. I'm worried about the

1339
00:59:36,719 --> 00:59:40,840
catcher situation. Shiner wasn't good last year. I mean, were

1340
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:45,880
you forgetting that? Let's see, wasn't throwing guys out and

1341
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:48,039
wasn't it well? It aggravated him. I think people were

1342
00:59:48,039 --> 00:59:50,480
more accavated by the fact that every base runner was

1343
00:59:50,519 --> 00:59:51,800
able to run on him.

1344
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 3: He was swinging out of his shoes at everything. Yeah,

1345
00:59:55,199 --> 00:59:56,480
couldn't hit yes.

1346
00:59:56,719 --> 01:00:02,119
Speaker 2: And doesn't throw guys out. And he's your by far,

1347
01:00:03,239 --> 01:00:06,960
not even close best option. That's why I asked about

1348
01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:08,639
Walter Yannick. To be brutally honest with you, I mean,

1349
01:00:08,679 --> 01:00:11,480
when is there gonna be some pressure to supply because

1350
01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:14,239
I you know, my long term gut feeling was that

1351
01:00:14,519 --> 01:00:15,800
Janna was gonna move to first big.

1352
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:19,280
Speaker 3: Yes, not happening so far. Not this one can happen.

1353
01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:21,360
I mean not for a little while. Christian Walker's your guy,

Speaker 2: And you know when you get downtown the far right

1387
01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:07,000
lane is for high occupancy vehicles and buses only. Yes,

1388
01:02:07,760 --> 01:02:13,440
Why we're all trying to get out of downtown open

1389
01:02:13,519 --> 01:02:14,920
up as many lanes as possible.

1390
01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:19,519
Speaker 3: It is to encourage carpooling and public transportation.

1391
01:02:19,079 --> 01:02:22,119
Speaker 2: Use in downtown and uston carpooling. I just don't get it.

the northwest side. Your carpool into downtown. What do you

1394
01:02:26,360 --> 01:02:29,599
mean that lane is empty? If it's if I see

1395
01:02:29,639 --> 01:02:31,079
it's available, I'm going single.

1396
01:02:31,320 --> 01:02:33,199

1397
01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 2: Yes, Okay, no one's ever been caught. That's not shocking

1398
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:40,000
me at all. You're definitely uh yeah, I'm solo in

1399
01:02:40,039 --> 01:02:40,800
the HOV line.

1400
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:43,039
Speaker 3: Guy, I could see that now. When I go in

1401
01:02:43,119 --> 01:02:48,760
the HOV lanes, I pay the toll. That's good, give

1402
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:50,800
me your money. Some people in my life don't do that.

1403
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:53,320
I avoided at all costs unless I'm in a uh

1404
01:02:53,519 --> 01:02:54,079
in a rush.

1405
01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:57,320
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just just like this lane is over here

1406
01:02:57,360 --> 01:02:59,320
on the far right side, just sitting there doing nothing,

1407
01:02:59,519 --> 01:03:02,760
nobody on it. Like, there's no buses, there's no carpools.

1408
01:03:03,320 --> 01:03:05,840
I'm gonna help decongest the downtown traffic. I'm on the

1409
01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:07,800
far ralliance. So I was actually doing the service of people.

1410
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:10,559
That's probably how you see it, but I do. That's

1411

01:05:02,760 --> 01:05:04,840
It's called the no stra wrongest file. That's not true

1467
01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:07,199
at all. That's literally what it's called. We can bring

1468
01:05:07,280 --> 01:05:09,199
up the cheese you said last season too. I got

1469
01:05:09,239 --> 01:05:15,480
some receipts. You got to bring up some receipts. Wow, wow, Wow,

1470
01:05:15,679 --> 01:05:16,639
that's time for an audit.

1471
01:05:16,719 --> 01:05:23,639
Speaker 3: I got five months of oh SA one third dog version.

1472
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:27,800
Did they even hit the red zone? It's not it's

1473
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:29,960
not fair it's truth. The only red zone they got

1474
01:05:30,039 --> 01:05:31,400
was Scott Hanson on Sundays.

1475
01:05:31,639 --> 01:05:40,519
Speaker 2: Wow, Oh my goodness, Oh I got one for it. Okay,

1476
01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:42,599
it ties into sports.

1477
01:05:43,039 --> 01:05:43,480
Speaker 8: Go ahead.

1478
01:05:43,559 --> 01:05:46,760
Speaker 2: So Rob Manford is loving all this attention to the WBC.

1479
01:05:47,519 --> 01:05:50,079
You see what they're talking about. Now, Oh here we go?

1480
01:05:50,159 --> 01:05:56,639
What mid season tournaments? What like NBA Cup type of deal? Correct?

1481
01:05:56,800 --> 01:06:00,760
B Gosh, Come on, man, I just don't get it.

1482
01:06:02,119 --> 01:06:04,760
I'm not a fan of WBC. You know this. You

1483
01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:06,559
want to do it once every three years. I can

1484
01:06:06,599 --> 01:06:09,960
live with it, but don't interrupt. You cannot interrupt the

1485
01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:17,360
baseball season for two weeks. You get it, No, you

1486
01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:17,719
get it.

1487
01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:19,840
Speaker 3: I'm making what's the what's the sign I'm making?

1488
01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:21,880
Speaker 2: Nope? What sign of a man? Can't do it?

1489
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:24,280
Speaker 3: You know why telling the people what I'm doing with

1490
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:24,880
my hands?

1491
01:06:25,039 --> 01:06:27,400
Speaker 2: Do you know why you can't do it? The Weather Channel,

1492
01:06:28,519 --> 01:06:32,039
Man's money, Manzel sign money. That's why they're why why

1493
01:06:32,039 --> 01:06:33,880
why else would you can see this? Oh cause it's

1494
01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:35,719
really fun and we're gonna take a bath on this

1495
01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:36,480
and lose money.

1496
01:06:36,639 --> 01:06:37,199
Speaker 3: Of course not.

1497
01:06:37,519 --> 01:06:40,360
Speaker 2: You sell the games, you sell tickets, you sell sponsorships.

1498
01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:42,239
You would want to make so when the so when

1499
01:06:42,239 --> 01:06:44,400
the Astros are playing the Phillies in the World Series

1500
01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:48,320
in November twenty third, and there's a blizzard in Philadelphia.

1501
01:06:48,519 --> 01:06:50,719
That's gonna be worth it. You don't have you can't

1502
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:51,000
do it.

1503
01:06:51,000 --> 01:06:53,599
Speaker 3: Hell yeah, you're gonna sell snowplow advertisements.

1504
01:06:53,639 --> 01:06:57,199
Speaker 2: Oh my god, figure a way to turn money on it.

1505
01:06:57,239 --> 01:06:59,679
Did you see the WBC The guys all had advertisements,

1506
01:06:59,719 --> 01:07:03,760
like on their helmets and everything. I'm telling you once

1507
01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:06,880
every three years is great. This time of year is

1508
01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:09,159
not preferred, but it's the best option you have. This

1509
01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:12,039
mint stop mid seasoning things. See, I'm not trying to

1510
01:07:12,039 --> 01:07:13,880
tell you I love the tournament. That's the greatest idea

1511
01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:15,800
ever heard. I'm telling you why this is. I just

1512
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:17,639
don't get it. I didn't say I agree. This isn't

1513
01:07:17,679 --> 01:07:20,000
I agree with it. Okay, this is I get it.

1514
01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:27,320
I get it. It's money. Stop reinventing the wheels sports commissioners.

1515
01:07:28,039 --> 01:07:30,800
But you know'll look every Board of Governor's meeting. How

1516
01:07:30,800 --> 01:07:32,960
are you gonna get this more money? Here's revenues. How

1517
01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:35,559
do we get this up? That's everywhere? That's not just baseball,

1518
01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:39,800
isn't it crazy? Entireheart media that's said anybody else. Everybody

1519
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:42,599
works into this whole Willie's Grill and ice house. They

1520
01:07:42,639 --> 01:07:45,320
know exactly what I'm talking about. That that's how the

1521
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:49,440
world works. But it but the calendar. You fight the

1522
01:07:49,519 --> 01:07:51,360
calendar OFSS. You can't beat the calendar.

1523
01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:52,519
Speaker 3: Well, it's a two week tournament.

1524
01:07:53,159 --> 01:07:55,119
Speaker 2: I had the idea, what do you think about the

1525
01:07:55,280 --> 01:07:57,679
pool plays preseason and then the tournament and then then

1526
01:07:57,679 --> 01:08:00,280
the bracketing, so you have a nice force he's in

1527
01:08:00,320 --> 01:08:03,159
weight between it between a round a few months. Yeah, no,

1528
01:08:03,679 --> 01:08:05,159
you could have practical I mean it's like you have

1529
01:08:05,199 --> 01:08:07,679
World Cup qualifiers, you have World Cup qualifiers, and then

1530
01:08:07,719 --> 01:08:09,840
you have the World Cup like a year later. It'd

1531
01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:11,880
they'd be similar to that. So we're gonna take a

1532
01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:13,880
vibe off of soccer. Okay, that makes a whole lot

1533
01:08:13,920 --> 01:08:16,159
of sense. The most popular sport in the world. Yeah,

1534
01:08:16,239 --> 01:08:17,119
wouldn't be the worst thing.

1535
01:08:17,119 --> 01:08:18,479
Speaker 3: What's the most popular food in the world.

1536
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:22,239
Speaker 2: I'd see that's another Again, that is a stupid analogy.

1537
01:08:23,039 --> 01:08:25,199
Rice is the most popular food in the world is

1538
01:08:25,239 --> 01:08:29,560
because it is cheap and accessible and filling with carbohydrates

1539
01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:32,279
and it can feel a human being on a very

1540
01:08:32,319 --> 01:08:35,840
low budget. That has nothing to do with the popularity

1541
01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:39,560
of a sport you elect to watch is a horrible analogy.

1542
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:41,800
I just like using the word rice to off. Okay,

1543
01:08:42,399 --> 01:08:45,119
and it works. I mean that's every single time. Honestly,

1544
01:08:45,159 --> 01:08:48,319
it works with your analogies that are horrible. You know

1545
01:08:48,319 --> 01:08:51,359
what that was rude, I'm saying, I'm writing it down. Analogy.

1546
01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:55,920
Speaker 3: He's one of those bad analogy. Yeah, way, my notepad.

1547
01:08:56,119 --> 01:08:58,640
That guy stole my notepad. Bring that pad back over here.

1548
01:08:58,720 --> 01:09:01,399
Trever's got He's got to come on, man, that's.

1549
01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:03,920
Speaker 2: That's my fourth seasons. No pad, there you go. He

1550
01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:05,560
said he was gonna steal it. I know he had

1551
01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:07,760
it for like ten minutes. All right, I'll tell you

1552
01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:09,319
what I just don't get. Do you see what the

1553
01:09:09,359 --> 01:09:13,319
Browns are proposing? No, So, in the NFL they have

1554
01:09:13,399 --> 01:09:15,560
a rule you can't trade first round picks or any

1555
01:09:15,560 --> 01:09:18,439
picks more than three years out. The Browns are trying

1556
01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:23,000
to make it five years. Why for what for a

1557
01:09:23,079 --> 01:09:26,239
general manager? If Nick Cassario, Nick Cassio could just trade

1558
01:09:26,319 --> 01:09:28,800
five first round draft picks for whatever he wants, because

1559
01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:30,840
if it doesn't work out, he's not gonna be here anyways.

1560
01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:36,720
That makes it worse. That's a horrible idea. I don't know.

1561
01:09:37,239 --> 01:09:39,680
I just don't get why the Browns would be pushing

1562
01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:43,920
for that. Why are we taking any vibe and anything

1563
01:09:43,920 --> 01:09:48,520
from the Browns for anything? Are the worst organizations, past tense,

1564
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:54,159
current tents, future tens. They do nothing right.

1565
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:55,079
Speaker 3: I don't get it.

1566
01:09:55,159 --> 01:09:57,520
Speaker 2: They have nine quarterbacks in there on their team right now.

1567
01:09:57,560 --> 01:09:59,439
I think the three year limit is good. You keep

1568
01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:02,479
owners and general matters from being out of control.

1569
01:10:03,039 --> 01:10:04,720
Speaker 3: And and especially if.

1570
01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:06,079
Speaker 2: You have a general manager on the hot seat and

1571
01:10:06,079 --> 01:10:07,560
he needs to make a trade, then he's gonna trade

1572
01:10:07,560 --> 01:10:08,760
away all the first round draft picks.

1573
01:10:08,880 --> 01:10:09,520
Speaker 3: He doesn't care.

1574
01:10:10,039 --> 01:10:12,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, Needel and Bryant will get to you. If you

1575
01:10:12,880 --> 01:10:15,359
got don't get something, let us know. So we're here

1576
01:10:15,399 --> 01:10:18,560
for seven one three two one two five seven ninety

1577
01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:21,279
seven one three two one two five seven Ainty, amazing

1578
01:10:22,079 --> 01:10:24,760
gumbo being consumed right now Willie's grill an ice house.

1579
01:10:24,800 --> 01:10:33,119
Speaker 3: We're here on Sports Talk seven ninety Thank you very

1580
01:10:33,239 --> 01:10:37,840
much for this awesome all right, we got a lot

1581
01:10:37,840 --> 01:10:39,800
of phone calls to get to people.

1582
01:10:39,479 --> 01:10:42,840
Speaker 2: Want our advice. Ross they actually want my advice. I'm

1583
01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:44,359
the one that gives them the stage advice here on

1584
01:10:44,399 --> 01:10:46,279
the program. You know, what the hell you're talking about

1585
01:10:46,319 --> 01:10:48,840
in general? And by the way, Girod is on the line.

1586
01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:50,960
We're gonna get Girodi because Garrod's always gonna give us

1587
01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:54,159
some great basketball takes. But first, what don't you get

1588
01:10:54,199 --> 01:10:56,479
in your life? Needs you on seven ninety, needs you,

1589
01:10:56,520 --> 01:10:57,319
what can we help you with?

1590
01:10:58,279 --> 01:11:02,479
Speaker 15: Yeah, I still don't get the reed Shepherd truthers that

1591
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,119
want him to be a starter when you know, for

1592
01:11:05,159 --> 01:11:08,239
the last three games he's shown like his offense has

1593
01:11:08,279 --> 01:11:12,680
been great, but he has literally proved the liability that

1594
01:11:12,720 --> 01:11:16,600
he is on defense, like his his man has scored

1595
01:11:17,319 --> 01:11:19,880
an incredible amount of points, and he's never going to

1596
01:11:19,920 --> 01:11:21,960
be able to be James Harden, where he can score

1597
01:11:22,079 --> 01:11:25,399
thirty and give up twenty. He's gonna score eighteen and

1598
01:11:25,439 --> 01:11:29,439
give up thirty. So I just don't get why other

1599
01:11:29,520 --> 01:11:32,560
stations announcers are talking about like he should be starting,

1600
01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:33,359
he should be starting.

1601
01:11:33,399 --> 01:11:34,880
Speaker 8: I just don't know what game they're watching.

1602
01:11:35,439 --> 01:11:37,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll say this Needell, thank you for the uncle

1603
01:11:37,359 --> 01:11:39,199
that's cooled off a little bit. First of all, Red

1604
01:11:39,319 --> 01:11:42,079
is playing major minutes. Red played thirty twenty seven minutes

1605
01:11:42,159 --> 01:11:44,600
last night. I think you played thirty one the internight

1606
01:11:44,640 --> 01:11:47,319
against the Lakers in the first matchup. I don't I

1607
01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:49,359
think that has cooled off a little bit.

1608
01:11:50,039 --> 01:11:50,880
Speaker 3: I think it's natural.

1609
01:11:51,039 --> 01:11:54,000
Speaker 2: Did the I don't get I mean, I get it,

1610
01:11:54,039 --> 01:11:56,640
because I don't agree with it. I get it because

1611
01:11:56,640 --> 01:11:59,439
we always like the backup. Everybody likes the backup, the

1612
01:11:59,479 --> 01:12:02,239
six man to start. He needs to play more. He's

1613
01:12:02,239 --> 01:12:05,479
shown a little bit he plays well. Also, basketball is

1614
01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:10,479
a sport where people pay ten times more attention to

1615
01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:13,479
to offense and defense. How much more do people look

1616
01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:16,720
at shots made rather than shots defended in the NBA?

1617
01:12:16,800 --> 01:12:20,119
As far as just casual NBA watchers, HiT's every sport right,

1618
01:12:20,199 --> 01:12:23,399
Like a shortstop with a flashy glove who can't hit.

1619
01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:25,159
People are like, why he's why is he out there?

1620
01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:28,079
Or why is Jake Myers out there? Watch the catches

1621
01:12:28,079 --> 01:12:31,239
that he makes in center field? So nobody normally pays

1622
01:12:31,399 --> 01:12:33,800
offense is the flashy points. We want hits, we want

1623
01:12:33,840 --> 01:12:37,760
all that stuff runs touchdowns. So I get it, but

1624
01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:42,960
I don't agree with he's playing major minutes. He comes

1625
01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:45,439
in on, you know, the key important times of the game.

1626
01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:51,560
I don't think the fortunes of the Rockets would change

1627
01:12:51,560 --> 01:12:55,079
with read having being announced in the opening lineup. I

1628
01:12:55,159 --> 01:12:58,079
just it's about fourth quarter finishing. Yeah, and it's also

1629
01:12:58,119 --> 01:13:01,560
a situation where, yeah, he's playing against backups normally as well,

1630
01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:03,399
and he's thriving in those And a lot of times

1631
01:13:03,439 --> 01:13:06,600
when somebody's thriving in that role, for whatever reason, people

1632
01:13:06,760 --> 01:13:10,840
want that role expanded, even if they're not uh, if

1633
01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:13,880
they're not suited for it. Just because somebody here at

1634
01:13:14,079 --> 01:13:16,279
Willy's Grill and Ice House is a great server doesn't

1635
01:13:16,319 --> 01:13:23,520
mean they'll be a great manager. Oh, interesting analogy there, Yeah,

1636
01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:29,239
thank you, Matt. Let's go to uh, Brian and Paarland. Brian,

1637
01:13:29,279 --> 01:13:32,399
what don't you get my man, We're here to help you.

1638
01:13:32,560 --> 01:13:35,319
Speaker 16: Well, I may get it, but I don't like it

1639
01:13:35,399 --> 01:13:37,720
or I don't understand it. Why the first four? Why

1640
01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:41,359
are you force teams who you who have done everything

1641
01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:43,079
you've asked them to do, pray.

1642
01:13:42,920 --> 01:13:44,000
Speaker 17: New A and m oh.

1643
01:13:44,039 --> 01:13:47,000
Speaker 16: Granted they won last night, you say you in your

1644
01:13:47,039 --> 01:13:48,680
conference tournament, you are in.

1645
01:13:48,720 --> 01:13:51,319
Speaker 17: The big dance. Give them the shot to.

1646
01:13:51,319 --> 01:13:55,960
Speaker 16: Go sling their arrow and take out goliaths. Give them

1647
01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:59,359
that's just me, UNBC, and take down who is it

1648
01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:03,640
Purdue or whoever they whoever Arizona, whoever was lest Virginia

1649
01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:04,159
a couple.

1650
01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:06,159
Speaker 17: Of years ago. Give them that chance.

1651
01:14:06,239 --> 01:14:08,479
Speaker 16: Don't make them play in another.

1652
01:14:08,119 --> 01:14:09,880
Speaker 17: Game then to go get that.

1653
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:13,680
Speaker 16: So make those bubble teams who were bitching about they

1654
01:14:13,680 --> 01:14:15,239
didn't get in because they got left.

1655
01:14:15,119 --> 01:14:16,600
Speaker 17: Up by Miami of Ohio.

1656
01:14:17,399 --> 01:14:20,399
Speaker 16: Make those be the first four games, the first four out.

1657
01:14:20,439 --> 01:14:22,880
In the next four out should be those eight bubble

1658
01:14:22,920 --> 01:14:25,039
teams that are trying to get in.

1659
01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:26,920
Speaker 17: That should be your way to.

1660
01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:30,239
Speaker 16: Work yourself into the dance because your regular season didn't

1661
01:14:30,239 --> 01:14:30,520
do it.

1662
01:14:30,800 --> 01:14:32,800
Speaker 17: Don't force your Prairie New A and M's and your

1663
01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:34,960
Lee Highs they should.

1664
01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:37,560
Speaker 16: They get everything the NCAA told them to do to.

1665
01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:40,159
Speaker 17: Get an automatic bid. Let's then get in and play.

1666
01:14:40,239 --> 01:14:43,199
Speaker 16: This might be their only chance to get in and.

1667
01:14:43,199 --> 01:14:45,880
Speaker 17: Take down the big dog. So give them that chance.

1668
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:48,920
Speaker 16: So I don't get why they still continue to do this.

1669
01:14:49,039 --> 01:14:52,159
I'd much rather watch Texas and NC State, or A

1670
01:14:52,199 --> 01:14:54,479
and M and NC State play to get in.

1671
01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:56,640
Speaker 2: Then Lee High and Prairie View.

1672
01:14:56,880 --> 01:14:57,319
Speaker 17: Let them.

1673
01:14:57,600 --> 01:15:00,239
Speaker 16: Let those teams in the first round and get that

1674
01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:05,159
chance to slay the big dog. Probably won't happen, but

1675
01:15:05,319 --> 01:15:07,279
let them settle it on the court, not in a

1676
01:15:07,359 --> 01:15:08,039
playing game.

1677
01:15:08,359 --> 01:15:11,199
Speaker 17: To get that chance it's.

1678
01:15:11,079 --> 01:15:13,399
Speaker 3: Because they're the these are these are.

1679
01:15:13,279 --> 01:15:16,359
Speaker 2: Sixteen seeds who normally they're not one of the best

1680
01:15:16,359 --> 01:15:17,920
sixty eight teams in basketball.

1681
01:15:18,359 --> 01:15:20,600
Speaker 3: Prayview A and M's Kim Palm is two eighty, leh

1682
01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:23,960
Has is two ninety two. That's why it's this is

1683
01:15:24,039 --> 01:15:24,680
not great.

1684
01:15:24,720 --> 01:15:28,640
Speaker 2: If you really really wanted to take it up a notch,

1685
01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:31,199
they shouldn't be in the tournament. Take they the best

1686
01:15:31,239 --> 01:15:34,079
sixty eighteen. Yeah, so they get an automatic bid. That's cool,

1687
01:15:34,119 --> 01:15:36,399
that's nice. They get to play in the NCAA tournament.

1688
01:15:36,439 --> 01:15:38,079
And if you want to make it against the big

1689
01:15:38,079 --> 01:15:39,960
dog in the one seed, win the game. Yeah.

1690
01:15:40,039 --> 01:15:43,680
Speaker 3: I do like automatic qualifiers. Yeah, it's cool.

1691
01:15:43,760 --> 01:15:46,840
Speaker 2: But if you want to take the four worst of them,

1692
01:15:47,159 --> 01:15:48,840
send them to dating for a couple of days.

1693
01:15:50,399 --> 01:15:51,239
Speaker 3: You know, it is what it is.

1694
01:15:51,279 --> 01:15:54,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, Lehigh eight finished the season eighteen and seventeen. Prairie

1695
01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:56,399
View is now nineteen and seventeen.

1696
01:15:59,199 --> 01:16:01,840
Speaker 3: Definitely want to stay. That's how the turn.

1697
01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:03,600
Speaker 2: If it was sixty four times, they wouldn't be an

1698
01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:04,640
issuest they've had it.

1699
01:16:04,720 --> 01:16:07,920
Speaker 3: They're not tournament worthy teams. Yeah, that's the bottom. Yeah,

1700
01:16:08,199 --> 01:16:09,640
uh so I will say I get it.

1701
01:16:09,920 --> 01:16:12,720
Speaker 2: Let's go to uh Tom in downtown Tom.

1702
01:16:12,760 --> 01:16:13,720
Speaker 3: What don't you get my man?

1703
01:16:15,119 --> 01:16:19,640
Speaker 11: Okay, So recently I'm at the dentist and the little

1704
01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:22,319
hygienist is working on my thief, got all kinds of

1705
01:16:22,319 --> 01:16:24,840
tools and hands in my mouth, and then it's like

1706
01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:28,439
trying to ask me questions. I'm like, how am I

1707
01:16:28,520 --> 01:16:31,199
supposed to talk when you're like drilling on my teeth?

1708
01:16:31,359 --> 01:16:32,920
You know, I just don't get it.

1709
01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:33,600
Speaker 18: Is dear thing.

1710
01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:35,000
Speaker 8: And then we can talk later.

1711
01:16:36,119 --> 01:16:39,359
Speaker 2: I will say my hygienist is quite a talker as well,

1712
01:16:39,439 --> 01:16:41,960
ross minus chatty as well. Is it just part of

1713
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:44,359
the profession. I feel the exact same way.

1714
01:16:44,479 --> 01:16:49,199
Speaker 3: She's like, I'm she's asking me, like about my entire life.

1715
01:16:49,279 --> 01:16:52,640
Speaker 2: She asked me about my kids, she asked them I travel.

1716
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:56,479
She also, so my general answer is the following.

1717
01:16:59,279 --> 01:17:02,039
Speaker 3: Suction more suction.

1718
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:07,640
Speaker 2: And you've got like, uh, like the spit dribbling down

1719
01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:09,960
your mouth because you're trying to talk. It's I'm I

1720
01:17:10,359 --> 01:17:12,159
don't get it either. I am due to see her

1721
01:17:12,239 --> 01:17:14,000
on the thirtieth. I will give you a full report

1722
01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:15,960
of the thirty first about how that goes. A little

1723
01:17:16,079 --> 01:17:18,600
chatting I'm okay with, But it's like it's the new

1724
01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:21,159
I had a different one and then that person left.

1725
01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:25,520
The new one is way chatting and she's super nice.

1726
01:17:26,119 --> 01:17:27,640
No have you ever mean a you been around a

1727
01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:28,319
mean high? Jenis?

1728
01:17:28,600 --> 01:17:28,640
Speaker 16: No.

1729
01:17:29,079 --> 01:17:32,880
Speaker 2: No, they're probably being the nicest people and just like, hey,

1730
01:17:32,920 --> 01:17:34,359
how's this going? And I think they just try to

1731
01:17:34,359 --> 01:17:36,439
make it easier for you because it's just awkward, like

1732
01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:37,760
their their hands.

1733
01:17:37,399 --> 01:17:38,079
Speaker 3: Are in your mouth.

1734
01:17:38,199 --> 01:17:42,760
Speaker 2: It's just weird what their hands are in your mouth? Yeah,

1735
01:17:42,800 --> 01:17:43,359
am I wrong?

1736
01:17:43,520 --> 01:17:44,520
Speaker 3: And you're asking for suction?

1737
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:48,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's awkward. And she's asking for suction. No, you

1738
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:51,279
know she doesn't. I don't know what kind of dental

1739
01:17:51,319 --> 01:17:58,880
office you're going to. You and Bob Kraft, Yeah, but

1740
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:02,920
I think I think dental hygienis just like to talk

1741
01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:05,359
to you. They're just chattering and then the reality is this,

1742
01:18:05,479 --> 01:18:07,560
you can't give them the answers, so they're want more.

1743
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:10,960
But I'm I'm still with Tom. It's like I don't

1744
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:14,560
get like, like dial it back a notch. Why can't

1745
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:16,199
we when we go to the dental hygenis have a

1746
01:18:16,199 --> 01:18:18,840
big screen TV above on the wall. I like that,

1747
01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:21,239
you know what I do? I like count the tiles

1748
01:18:21,399 --> 01:18:25,520
over and over. I'm just sitting there like trying to

1749
01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:28,119
pass the time. So another thing that happens in the

1750
01:18:28,199 --> 01:18:31,199
dental at the office is I will ask her the

1751
01:18:31,239 --> 01:18:32,479
song will be played in the background.

1752
01:18:32,600 --> 01:18:34,680
Speaker 3: Uh huh, and I'll say name that song and she can't.

1753
01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:47,279
Speaker 7: Do it long Well, Paul, I'll get wrong, Prince.

1754
01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:53,279
Speaker 2: Duh e easy, easy, What don't you get.

1755
01:18:54,880 --> 01:19:01,439
Speaker 13: I just don't get this rocket defense right now. They've

1756
01:19:01,479 --> 01:19:05,039
been playing well at the beginning of the season. I

1757
01:19:05,199 --> 01:19:08,199
just don't get it. And number two, I just don't

1758
01:19:08,239 --> 01:19:11,039
give while y'all have not set up a Jonathan and

1759
01:19:11,119 --> 01:19:15,840
mister pre uh race and I hang up and listen.

1760
01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:21,600
Speaker 2: Tell Jonathan versus mister Freeze, don't he gonna beat him?

1761
01:19:21,920 --> 01:19:25,640
Speaker 3: I got bad news for you. I got Freeze, Wow.

1762
01:19:28,399 --> 01:19:32,039
Speaker 2: Wow. Because you're such a hater. Let me tell you

1763
01:19:32,119 --> 01:19:34,039
the biggest hater on the planet. I've been looking at

1764
01:19:34,039 --> 01:19:36,279

1767
01:19:41,199 --> 01:19:43,720
Speaker 3: Feeling? John Jonathan practice? Tell the truth? Are you what

1768
01:19:43,840 --> 01:19:46,039

1769
01:19:46,039 --> 01:19:50,359
lot of pasta carbs? Okay, yeah, he's carbar are you

1770
01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:51,359
burning it off though?

1771
01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:55,760
Speaker 2: You think you ain't see me get big? Have you? No?

1772
01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:58,920
But I just am a little worried in the studio

1773
01:19:59,000 --> 01:19:59,399
for you. See.

1774
01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:01,920
Speaker 3: No, oh, you're not hogg. That time's not happening. You're

1775
01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:04,399
not taking your shirt off in for anybody except your girl.

1776
01:20:05,079 --> 01:20:08,039
Speaker 2: What. Yeah, that's that's if you choose to do such

1777
01:20:08,039 --> 01:20:11,159
a thing, all right? Uh oh, we gotta play the

1778
01:20:11,159 --> 01:20:14,600
Hotel California song. Yea, yeah, we do, unfortunately with too

1779
01:20:14,600 --> 01:20:18,760

1780
01:20:19,880 --> 01:20:23,920

1831
01:22:33,439 --> 01:22:34,079
them all. You're right.

1832
01:22:34,159 --> 01:22:36,199
Speaker 3: Let's get to the news at noon. Why don't we?

1833
01:22:36,359 --> 01:22:36,760
Speaker 2: Oh?

1834
01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:41,079
Speaker 3: Yes, I have really you know what I'll start.

1835
01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:44,279
Speaker 2: Last night, the Rockets had lost to the Lakers won

1836
01:22:44,319 --> 01:22:48,119
twenty four to one sixteen. The Rockets came back from

1837
01:22:48,159 --> 01:22:52,199
being down by as much as thirteen to take a

1838
01:22:52,279 --> 01:22:55,960
lead in the third quarterby outscoring the Lakers thirty seven

1839
01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:58,039
to twenty two. But the Lakers got thirty five of

1840
01:22:58,119 --> 01:23:03,439
the fourth and it was Luka Doncic forty points. Lebron

1841
01:23:03,520 --> 01:23:07,520
James had thirty Lebron did it on fourteen shots. He

1842
01:23:07,640 --> 01:23:12,720
was thirteen of fourteen. DeAndre Ayton sixteen points. I cannot

1843
01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:14,399
have Deon Raying scoring sixteen points.

1844
01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:16,960
Speaker 3: I'm sorry. Lebron.

1845
01:23:17,039 --> 01:23:21,520
Speaker 2: James's best shooting night of his career happened on March eighteenth,

1846
01:23:23,119 --> 01:23:25,279
ten years ago, and then he did it again ten

1847
01:23:25,359 --> 01:23:28,520
years later. Thirteen to fourteen is the best percentage shooting

1848
01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:30,239
night of his career, and he did it at the

1849
01:23:30,279 --> 01:23:32,199
age of forty one.

1850
01:23:33,199 --> 01:23:34,640
Speaker 3: How I don't know.

1851
01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:39,680
Speaker 2: Look in the leads the league in fast break buckets

1852
01:23:40,119 --> 01:23:42,399
and Luka Doncic went nuclear at the end of the game.

1853
01:23:42,479 --> 01:23:45,039
Rockets actually didn't play that poorly, but it just didn't

1854
01:23:45,039 --> 01:23:47,520
go their way. They lose Matt and now they are

1855
01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:50,920
at the moment the number five seed in the Western Conference,

1856
01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:52,439
holding on for dear life. For that, by the way,

1857
01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:54,359
two and a half games behind the Lakers. That also

1858
01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:57,560
cost you the season tiebreaker, So now you're effectively three

1859
01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:00,359
and a half games behind them with sixty eight games played.

1860
01:24:00,560 --> 01:24:03,920
Speaker 3: You're not catching the Lakers. It's just not happening. You're out.

1861
01:24:03,920 --> 01:24:05,199
We are root for the Heat tonight.

1862
01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:08,359
Speaker 2: The Lakers play the Heat this evening in Miami, they're

1863
01:24:08,399 --> 01:24:08,840
not passing.

1864
01:24:08,960 --> 01:24:11,920
Speaker 3: They're just oh, come on, I'm sorry, well.

1865
01:24:11,640 --> 01:24:13,720
Speaker 2: Mark mark my words. I'm putting my name on it.

1866
01:24:13,720 --> 01:24:16,840
I mean, mark my words, put my name on it

1867
01:24:16,840 --> 01:24:19,520
and all that stuff. They're not they're not finishing top three.

1868
01:24:20,039 --> 01:24:22,560
You can try to finish four for home court advantage

1869
01:24:22,560 --> 01:24:24,479
in the first but that means the Oklahoma City Thunder

1870
01:24:24,479 --> 01:24:25,960
are waiting for you, so that'll be fun.

1871
01:24:26,720 --> 01:24:29,239
Speaker 3: There are a one game behind the Minnesota chimber Wolves.

1872
01:24:29,239 --> 01:24:31,800
Speaker 2: Two matchups remaining with the t Wolves correct, one here

1873
01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:34,640
and one in Minneapolis, right and then they are in

1874
01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:38,119
a virtual tie with the Denver Nuggets. That's where they

1875
01:24:38,199 --> 01:24:41,439
sit in the Western Conference right now. And c Tournament

1876
01:24:41,479 --> 01:24:43,800
is underway at halftime.

1877
01:24:43,760 --> 01:24:47,520
Speaker 3: In I think it's Greenville, South Carolina?

1878
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:47,760
Speaker 7: Sure?

1879
01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:52,359
Speaker 2: Why not? How was you get the Greensboro Greenville? It

1880
01:24:52,439 --> 01:24:55,560
is TCU, the nine seed correct in the East Region,

1881
01:24:56,319 --> 01:25:01,159
leading a Central Ohio State thirty nine to twenty four. Yikes,

1882
01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:03,920
all right, what which idiots at Ohio State? Was there

1883
01:25:03,920 --> 01:25:05,239

1884
01:25:05,239 --> 01:25:05,800
of the show.

1885
01:25:05,640 --> 01:25:07,439
Speaker 3: I don't remember. I think it was Jonathan Yeah, be right.

1886
01:25:07,600 --> 01:25:11,720
Speaker 2: Eight forty three remaining in the first half in the

1887
01:25:11,840 --> 01:25:16,720
South Region, Nebraska leads Troy twenty one to fifteen. I

1888
01:25:16,800 --> 01:25:20,960
do have South Florida on a recorded line beating Louisville today. Baby,

1889
01:25:21,079 --> 01:25:23,760
we got our Houston start up that starts at to

1890
01:25:23,840 --> 01:25:25,399
twelve thirty. When you come out here and see us

01:25:28,199 --> 01:25:30,399

1893
01:25:30,439 --> 01:25:32,920
wife for a few hours on that and ice house

1894
01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:37,199
and ice house. We have the Houston Cougars playing tonight.

1895
01:25:37,760 --> 01:25:39,760
That will be a game that you will hear on

1896
01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:43,000
nine to fifty kPr C. That's a nine to ten start,

1897
01:25:43,159 --> 01:25:46,399
probably closer like the nine thirty you know what that's

1898
01:25:46,439 --> 01:25:48,880
And I just don't get it. Why do they always

1899
01:25:48,880 --> 01:25:53,039
schedule these games and they never start on time because

1900
01:25:53,039 --> 01:25:54,880
they tried two hour windows, It's ridiculous, but.

1901
01:25:54,880 --> 01:25:58,199
Speaker 3: There they know they never start on time, and they

1902
01:25:58,239 --> 01:26:00,159
act like it's only gonna be two hours.

1903
01:26:00,239 --> 01:26:00,520
Speaker 2: Yep.

1904
01:26:00,680 --> 01:26:01,439
Speaker 3: What are they doing?

1905
01:26:02,199 --> 01:26:04,359
Speaker 2: Why they lied? Why do they lie to.

1906
01:26:04,319 --> 01:26:06,319
Speaker 3: The American public? Over and over and over again.

1907

01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:19,720
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City in Houston two very easy to be reachable places.

1912
01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:22,880

1916
01:26:31,399 --> 01:26:32,279
Speaker 3: Okay, it doesn't matter.

1917
01:26:32,359 --> 01:26:34,399
Speaker 2: Okay. All I know is that I'm gonna be taking

1921
01:26:42,640 --> 01:26:45,920

01:26:59,840 --> 01:27:01,880
I had a question for you. Go ahead, Do I

1928
01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:04,279
go old school college and not get a room?

1929

1932
01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:15,159

1933
01:27:15,199 --> 01:27:16,640
the fund, just getting up there and just trying to

01:27:33,159 --> 01:27:38,000
Speaker 3: Okay, we would price line. The hotels would turn their.

1945
01:27:37,920 --> 01:27:40,920
Speaker 2: Nose down at you. They they were like, oh here

1946
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:43,680
a price line. They put me next to like the

1947
01:27:43,840 --> 01:27:46,800
washer dryer on the first floor. Yeah, they did not

1948
01:27:47,079 --> 01:27:50,880
like the price liners at all. Yeah, I understand.

1949
01:27:51,199 --> 01:27:51,800
Speaker 3: I get that.

1950
01:27:52,199 --> 01:27:54,520
Speaker 2: You should be like you know what, you shouldn't like us.

1951
01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:58,920
You can't find deals anymore. You cannot like anything else.

1952
01:27:58,960 --> 01:28:01,199
You're going on news, Yes we have some news.

1953
01:28:01,319 --> 01:28:04,439
Speaker 3: Did you hear about Piston star Kade Cunningham. This is

1954
01:28:04,479 --> 01:28:06,279
a bad bad spot for Detroit fan.

1955
01:28:06,479 --> 01:28:07,119
Speaker 2: He has been.

1956
01:28:07,079 --> 01:28:09,479
Speaker 3: Sidelined with a collapsed lung.

1957
01:28:09,600 --> 01:28:12,720
Speaker 2: He is expected to miss an extended period of time.

1958
01:28:13,479 --> 01:28:18,239
He has left lung pneumothorax, and it will be reevaluated

1959
01:28:18,359 --> 01:28:20,760
in the two weeks, meaning he's gonna miss at least

1960
01:28:20,800 --> 01:28:21,680
eight games.

1961
01:28:23,039 --> 01:28:24,840
Speaker 3: The collapse lung is considered mild.

1962
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:27,640
Speaker 2: So that's the good news, according to Sham Sharania, not

1963
01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:30,039
that anybody particularly cares, but that will put him out

1964
01:28:30,039 --> 01:28:33,039
of the MVP consideration because you gotta play sixty five games.

1965
01:28:33,279 --> 01:28:36,000
He will not have played sixty five. Uh well, I

1966
01:28:36,119 --> 01:28:37,960
Mike and these get sticked. That's a shame. Are you okay?

1967
01:28:38,199 --> 01:28:39,520
Speaker 3: Go on a little limp, it's a lymph.

1968
01:28:39,520 --> 01:28:44,680
Speaker 2: Fike fixmilow t dot com, Matt fixmilo t dot com.

1969
01:28:45,199 --> 01:28:49,439
Also a note, the w NBA has struck a collective

1970
01:28:49,479 --> 01:28:53,800
bargaining agreement deal. Last year, the league minimum was sixty

1971
01:28:53,800 --> 01:28:56,640
six thousand bucks. This year goes up to three hundred

1972
01:28:56,760 --> 01:28:58,439
k for the young ladies.

1973
01:29:00,920 --> 01:29:02,000
Speaker 3: It's doing better.

1974
01:29:05,159 --> 01:29:08,319
Speaker 2: Caitlyn Clark gonna hope in a prayer it should be

1975
01:29:08,319 --> 01:29:13,000
called the Caitlyn Clark Basketball Association. Yeah, they need to

1976
01:29:13,079 --> 01:29:15,520
name every trophy after her. She needs to be the logo.

1977
01:29:17,880 --> 01:29:18,520
That's not a lie.

1978
01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:21,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, But good for the ladies.

1979
01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:23,680
Speaker 2: They're getting three hundred k a year now instead of

1980
01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:25,199
sixty six and they're chartering.

1981
01:29:25,239 --> 01:29:27,680
Speaker 3: They're staying in a nice hotel. A massive increase in

1984
01:29:31,239 --> 01:29:34,520
at taxes, it's a four thousand dollars increase annually. Yeah,

1985
01:29:34,680 --> 01:29:35,760
it's fair, all.

1986
01:29:35,760 --> 01:29:36,840

2052
01:33:02,560 --> 01:33:03,880
I try to be out there with you guys. When

2053
01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:05,199
I was out there a few years ago when you

2054
01:33:05,279 --> 01:33:07,479
had a march manness, man, I had to work today,

2055
01:33:07,520 --> 01:33:08,800
so I wasn't able to get out there.

2056
01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:10,359
Speaker 3: What's on your mind?

2057
01:33:10,479 --> 01:33:10,920
Speaker 8: Some games?

2058
01:33:12,039 --> 01:33:13,600
Speaker 18: Uh put down on a rockets.

2059
01:33:13,359 --> 01:33:16,359
Speaker 6: By talking about the tournament. I don't mean why a

2060
01:33:16,439 --> 01:33:19,039
Donker don't play more zone when you have Red Sheppard

2061
01:33:19,039 --> 01:33:20,760
out there. You know he did that earl a year.

2062
01:33:20,840 --> 01:33:22,560
I thought it was a SIXTI for for some reason.

2063
01:33:22,640 --> 01:33:25,319
You know, he has a reshipperd out there trying to

2064
01:33:25,319 --> 01:33:27,239
guard man the man he's got a little better, but

2065
01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:29,840
you know, burn little bit more zone. And then we

2066
01:33:29,960 --> 01:33:31,840
want to when Lucas cooking out there in the fourth

2067
01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:33,960
quarter trying to switch it up, you playing straight up't

2068
01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:36,000
nobody in day doing that? Got one on one man.

2069
01:33:36,039 --> 01:33:38,640
He is just too crafty, too still and know how

2070
01:33:38,680 --> 01:33:40,920
to create his own offense. So they should have tried

2071
01:33:40,920 --> 01:33:42,720
to switch it up in the bit with him. I'm

2072
01:33:42,720 --> 01:33:44,319
not saying trap him, get the body of the head.

2073
01:33:44,319 --> 01:33:46,000
And they got an other guy that can handle the

2074
01:33:46,039 --> 01:33:48,760
ball like Lebron James and Austin Reeve, but go to

2075
01:33:48,840 --> 01:33:50,439
a zone when the guy's cooking like that in the

2076
01:33:50,439 --> 01:33:52,239
fourth quarter, trying to switch it up and if you

2077
01:33:52,239 --> 01:33:54,039
could get him outside of the river Mother office that

2078
01:33:54,079 --> 01:33:56,800
they got going on in that fourth quarter with all

2079
01:33:56,840 --> 01:33:58,520
that being saying, man cook thing on the tournament. I

2080
01:33:58,560 --> 01:34:00,439
don't think it's gonna be a lot of ushit in

2081
01:34:00,520 --> 01:34:02,600
this tournament. I think it's gonna be a chalk tournament.

2082
01:34:02,920 --> 01:34:05,720
I don't even see any double disition scenes making it

2083
01:34:05,800 --> 01:34:09,159
past the second round. I do have South Florida beating Louisville,

2084
01:34:09,199 --> 01:34:11,319
but I got the little dimission States in the next round.

2085
01:34:11,479 --> 01:34:14,039
I think it's gonna be a chalk chalk tournament. I

2086
01:34:14,039 --> 01:34:15,640
don't see it way. We're gonna see a lot of

2087
01:34:15,680 --> 01:34:18,199
center Radler where you're ben see in the in the

2088
01:34:18,199 --> 01:34:20,760
sweet sixteen or least or even the final four. I

2089
01:34:20,760 --> 01:34:22,960
don't see that this year. My final four, I have

2090
01:34:23,319 --> 01:34:26,960
U of h yukon almsonner at our State. I think

2091
01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:29,600
the Big twelve has been the best tournament this year.

2092
01:34:29,920 --> 01:34:32,279
I think it's gonna show up and show out in

2093
01:34:32,279 --> 01:34:34,439
this tournament. You see pc US beating the Ohio State

2094
01:34:34,479 --> 01:34:36,439
man I think the Big Twelve is gonna do well

2095
01:34:36,560 --> 01:34:38,600
well man, once they get outside of that comfort where

2096
01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:40,119
they kind of beat up on each other, I think

2097
01:34:40,159 --> 01:34:42,439
they're gonna have a lot of success in this tournament.

2098
01:34:42,439 --> 01:34:44,640
I think it's gonna be an all Big Twelve basically

2099
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:47,840
final four in inni Apois outside of Yukon. I do

2100
01:34:47,920 --> 01:34:50,880
have Ukon representing the Big East. So I got three

2101
01:34:51,279 --> 01:34:54,560
Big twelve teams in the final four. So we'll see

2102
01:34:54,560 --> 01:34:56,199
how it all play out, man, But I don't see

2103
01:34:56,239 --> 01:34:57,720
a lot of upset. I think it's gonna be a

2104
01:34:57,800 --> 01:35:00,279
chalk tournament. And I think I think part of me

2105
01:35:00,399 --> 01:35:02,199
is because of the n I l a lot of

2106
01:35:02,239 --> 01:35:05,520
those Silver Runners teams, but they would have good players

2107
01:35:05,560 --> 01:35:08,079
in the past, but nowadays, you know, those good players

2108
01:35:08,079 --> 01:35:11,760
are getting paid big money to go to a bigger university.

2109
01:35:11,800 --> 01:35:13,560
So you don't see the simil Runners that you're gonna

2110
01:35:13,560 --> 01:35:15,880
see that you had in the past year. Are the

2111
01:35:15,920 --> 01:35:18,680
Silver Runner teams that were you know, senior later teams

2112
01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:20,439
that we had a lot of experience away to beat

2113
01:35:20,479 --> 01:35:23,000
a lot of Inning Spriends team from bigger conference. Don't

2114
01:35:23,000 --> 01:35:24,279
think you're gonna see that this year. I think it's

2115
01:35:24,279 --> 01:35:26,439
gonna be a chalk. I'm just gonna hang up and listen. Man,

2116
01:35:26,520 --> 01:35:27,880
you guys, let me know who you got in the

2117
01:35:27,920 --> 01:35:30,439
final for that's my final four again, Yukon you of

2118
01:35:30,640 --> 01:35:34,279
h Iowa State and uh ams On. I got an

2119
01:35:34,279 --> 01:35:36,239
Amish one that used in the final. I hope you

2120
01:35:36,239 --> 01:35:37,800
should pull it out. But I just think Alisona is

2121
01:35:37,800 --> 01:35:39,680
the best team in the country. I got them winning

2122
01:35:39,680 --> 01:35:41,600
the championship over your vase. It's kind of like what

2123
01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:43,399
we've seen back in age when of your base ladies

2124
01:35:43,439 --> 01:35:46,840
back to back finals with with Elaja on them. I

2125
01:35:46,840 --> 01:35:48,600
think they're gonna come up short again back to back

2126
01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:50,439
to the year. I just think Arizona had the best

2127
01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:52,600
overall team. I mean, you hang up and listen. What

2128
01:35:52,640 --> 01:35:53,159
you guys thinking?

2129
01:35:55,159 --> 01:35:58,359
Speaker 3: Thanks? Jar Right, what do you got there?

2130
01:35:58,359 --> 01:35:58,520
Speaker 2: Man?

2131
01:35:58,560 --> 01:36:00,600
Speaker 3: What do you what'd you clock that at? Forty?

2132
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:01,239
Speaker 2: Okay?

2133
01:36:01,520 --> 01:36:03,199
Speaker 3: That's pretty short? I had three thirty in.

2134
01:36:03,199 --> 01:36:06,399
Speaker 2: The over under well really okay, I would have normally

2135
01:36:06,399 --> 01:36:07,840
he was under. It went over last night and the

2136
01:36:07,880 --> 01:36:10,000
Lakers lost in the post. Appreciate he was mad.

2137
01:36:10,079 --> 01:36:11,439
Speaker 3: I don't We're all mad.

2138
01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:13,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to.

2139
01:36:13,439 --> 01:36:13,760
Speaker 3: I don't know.

2140
01:36:13,800 --> 01:36:16,840
Speaker 2: I'd talk for four minutes straight if I could Yeah, well,

2141
01:36:16,840 --> 01:36:19,399
I think I went like forty five minutes without break.

2142
01:36:19,840 --> 01:36:20,840
Speaker 3: It's good times.

2143
01:36:21,439 --> 01:36:24,960
Speaker 2: Anyways, go ahead, Matt, your thoughts on Girod's basketball takes

2144
01:36:25,199 --> 01:36:28,119
uh As I said, I'm not worried about where Reed

2145
01:36:28,159 --> 01:36:33,680
Shepherd starts and where Read Shepherd finishes. Yes, And Frankly,

2146
01:36:33,760 --> 01:36:35,439
he's going to get more time on the court in

2147
01:36:35,479 --> 01:36:37,479
the fourth quarter games if you can't rely on Tar,

2148
01:36:37,520 --> 01:36:39,319
he's gonna make shots. That's the guy he's taking the

2149
01:36:39,359 --> 01:36:41,520
spot for. Frankly, Yeah, a little bit of Josh Kokiet

2150
01:36:41,560 --> 01:36:43,760
on that as well, but it's mainly been read. This

2151
01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:46,560
is the thing that's that that's difficult and people we

2152
01:36:46,680 --> 01:36:48,600
were talking about this with Dorny and Finny Smith, with

2153
01:36:48,640 --> 01:36:51,319
Tarry eastern or whoever, Like, if this Rockets team is

2154
01:36:51,359 --> 01:36:53,880
gonna hit their full potential, it's not going to be

2155
01:36:53,880 --> 01:36:57,800
paying playing Jeff Green or Aaron Holliday more or Isaiah Crawford. Like,

2156
01:36:57,840 --> 01:37:00,760
no disrespect to those guys, but you I'm Dorian Phinney

2157
01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:02,399
Smith here to be at three and d wing and

2158
01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:05,079
knock down shots. And he had like eight points in

2159
01:37:05,119 --> 01:37:07,680
what was a second quarter on Monday or something like that, Right,

2160
01:37:07,760 --> 01:37:11,399
Tarry Easton is a key piece to your team, especially

2161
01:37:11,399 --> 01:37:13,680
as a three and D wing where you're running things

2162
01:37:13,680 --> 01:37:16,600
through Auburn Shangoon and Kevin Durant. You need floor spacers,

2163
01:37:16,640 --> 01:37:18,920
you need three point shooters. He's got to be out there.

2164
01:37:19,359 --> 01:37:21,800
So I understand he's gonna go for twenty one right now.

2165
01:37:22,039 --> 01:37:23,760
But you can't have somebody on the one of your

2166
01:37:23,760 --> 01:37:25,720
five guys on the floor and look him in the

2167
01:37:25,760 --> 01:37:29,199
face and say never take a shot, don't shoot anymore,

2168
01:37:29,479 --> 01:37:33,680
take better shots, yes, make the shots that you do take. Yes,

2169
01:37:34,159 --> 01:37:37,359
But it's it's not as a situation where you can

2170
01:37:37,399 --> 01:37:40,119
just tell Tarry just just completely bench Tari Easan, it's

2171
01:37:40,119 --> 01:37:40,720
not gonna happen.

2172
01:37:41,640 --> 01:37:42,359
Speaker 3: Let's go with her.

2173
01:37:42,439 --> 01:37:44,399
Speaker 2: I've got the five realities in the rockets when we

2174
01:37:44,439 --> 01:37:47,520
come back. Oh, okay, five of them. You're giving me

2175
01:37:47,680 --> 01:37:52,119
five five realities that this current team is going through

2176
01:37:52,199 --> 01:37:55,239
right now. And then I want you. When I give

2177
01:37:55,279 --> 01:37:57,800
you these five realities, you're gonna then go I see

2178
01:37:57,840 --> 01:38:02,000
why they're struggling. Okay, makes sense to you, Yes, Willies

2179
01:38:02,399 --> 01:38:07,119
two ninety Barker, Woo, my gumbo's on the way, Bavi.

2180
01:38:07,079 --> 01:38:08,039
Speaker 3: I had me's in gumbo.

2181
01:38:08,119 --> 01:38:09,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, how was it good?

2182
01:38:09,640 --> 01:38:11,199
Speaker 3: I need some do they get crystal sauce?

2183
01:38:11,680 --> 01:38:13,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, they have all they got all the hot sauces

2184
01:38:13,520 --> 01:38:15,640
for I'm a crystal guy over Tabasco mostly, but I

2185
01:38:15,680 --> 01:38:16,279

2186
01:38:16,600 --> 01:38:18,119

Speaker 3: Yeah, but Matt's out of town all the time.

2200
01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:52,479
Speaker 2: And even my one of my favorite people the world,

2201
01:38:52,479 --> 01:38:54,319
Tracy Clayton's here. Come over and have lunch with us.

2202
01:38:54,319 --> 01:38:56,600
Tracy is on the stats crew. Oh yeah, he is

2203
01:38:56,600 --> 01:38:59,279
a USCF knight, so he's very excited about his nights.

2204
01:38:59,680 --> 01:39:01,439
I think had I had when one of my four

2205
01:39:01,479 --> 01:39:03,000
brackets I got to pull in the upset, I think,

2206
01:39:03,399 --> 01:39:06,479
and and I'm gonna brack about Tracy. Tracy was a

2207
01:39:06,479 --> 01:39:10,119
contestant on the Price is right? Really yes, Uh played

2208
01:39:10,119 --> 01:39:12,920
the Freeze frame game and lost and he did not.

2209
01:39:13,199 --> 01:39:16,600
We gotta bring that up because he'll show you the video.

2210
01:39:17,760 --> 01:39:18,520
Speaker 3: That's a bad game.

2211
01:39:18,560 --> 01:39:20,680
Speaker 2: By the way, it was surprising, didn't even one. I

2212
01:39:20,680 --> 01:39:22,119
think you. I think he's think you won like a

2213
01:39:22,159 --> 01:39:24,039
toaster oven or something like that. Oh, and then he

2214
01:39:24,119 --> 01:39:25,960
spun the wheel and then win that either. So that's

2215
01:39:26,560 --> 01:39:28,039
and he also agrees with me that I'd be a

2216
01:39:28,079 --> 01:39:33,680
much better host than Drew Carey with you while you're laughing, Oh,

2217
01:39:33,840 --> 01:39:36,479
I don't find nothing comical about that whatsoever.

2218
01:39:36,520 --> 01:39:39,560
Speaker 3: You're right, that was a very Yeah, it was good observation.

2219
01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:44,800
Speaker 2: So sorry. Oh the five guarant we got Mark and

2220
01:39:44,880 --> 01:39:46,000
Jay hangtib We'll get you guys.

2221
01:39:46,520 --> 01:39:49,840
Speaker 3: Here are the five one, two, three, four, five go ahead.

2222
01:39:49,920 --> 01:39:53,600
Speaker 2: Number one no, Fred van Belin, of course, Number two

2223
01:39:54,079 --> 01:39:57,359
the disintegration of disintegrator said a word.

2224
01:39:57,720 --> 01:39:59,520
Speaker 3: No, well, what disintegration is?

2225
01:39:59,560 --> 01:39:59,760
Speaker 2: A word?

2226
01:40:00,760 --> 01:40:03,279
Speaker 3: Like a sixth grade word of Steven Am Steve Adam's ankle.

2227
01:40:03,479 --> 01:40:08,920
Speaker 2: Okay, Uh, that's a big one, number one. No, no, no,

2228
01:40:08,760 --> 01:40:10,359
let's talk about these real quick. I'm gonnaive to the

2229
01:40:10,359 --> 01:40:11,000
five and then go from there.

2230
01:40:11,039 --> 01:40:13,479
Speaker 3: Oh you want to do a listen, then a list breakdown.

2231
01:40:14,760 --> 01:40:17,640
Speaker 2: Dorian Phinney Smith has not been the Dorian Finieh Smith

2232
01:40:17,640 --> 01:40:20,800
that we've seen as a Laker or a maverick. Okay,

2233
01:40:21,159 --> 01:40:22,760
you signed to be a multi year deal. We were

2234
01:40:22,760 --> 01:40:27,399
all excited about it. It was a sneaky good pickup. Uh.

2235
01:40:27,520 --> 01:40:28,239
Speaker 3: Number four.

2236
01:40:31,119 --> 01:40:32,800
Speaker 2: And this has been brought up a little bit here

2237
01:40:32,800 --> 01:40:37,119
in the last month or so. Maybe I'll be playing

2238
01:40:37,119 --> 01:40:39,880
all the international basketball overseas and the off season has

2239
01:40:40,319 --> 01:40:42,479
tired him out a little bit. He looked okay last

2240
01:40:42,560 --> 01:40:47,359
night he did and uh, number five.

2241
01:40:47,640 --> 01:40:49,479
Speaker 3: How many games in EuroBasket did he play?

2242
01:40:50,000 --> 01:40:51,279
Speaker 2: I don't know, but it was still like it.

2243
01:40:51,239 --> 01:40:53,239
Speaker 3: Was like a twenty five game grind, I know.

2244
01:40:53,199 --> 01:40:55,000
Speaker 2: But it's still a lot. It was competitive, it was

2245
01:40:55,039 --> 01:41:00,800
highly intense. And number five, Uh, what's my number five?

2246
01:41:01,079 --> 01:41:01,359
Speaker 8: I don't know.

2247
01:41:01,399 --> 01:41:03,439
Speaker 2: I should have had number five. You can't even top

2248
01:41:03,439 --> 01:41:08,359
five minutes out number five? Yeah, what's my number five?

2249
01:41:08,680 --> 01:41:10,159
How you want to help me with number five. Would

2250
01:41:10,159 --> 01:41:11,800
you say for number four? I was looking at uh

2251
01:41:12,039 --> 01:41:14,000
up and chat. Maybe Alpies wearing down a little bit,

2252
01:41:14,199 --> 01:41:18,560
Alpi wearing down. Tar Eisan's regression, Oh, Tar Eastan's regression.

2253
01:41:20,359 --> 01:41:22,039
Never it's going to be a forty seven percent three

2254
01:41:22,039 --> 01:41:24,600
point shooter all year long. But did anybody anticipate e

2255
01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:26,960
mail In making one field goal in the month of

2256
01:41:27,039 --> 01:41:28,479
March from three point range?

2257
01:41:28,600 --> 01:41:31,000
Speaker 3: It was nine games in the EuroBasket. That is a

2258
01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:32,960
lot plus practices.

2259
01:41:33,000 --> 01:41:37,119
Speaker 2: Now they're they're forty minute games. Okay, that's that's the

2260
01:41:37,199 --> 01:41:39,000
least of my concern. But I just do believe that

2261
01:41:39,039 --> 01:41:41,760
there is a little bit of sometimes a little bit

2262
01:41:41,760 --> 01:41:44,520
of fatigue with him. Not much, but but Tari's the

2263
01:41:44,520 --> 01:41:46,920
ankle injury as well, that he rushed back front, playing

2264
01:41:46,920 --> 01:41:48,640
through pain. He looked pretty good. I mean, ten to

2265
01:41:48,720 --> 01:41:51,319
fifteen to twenty seven points. Yeah, it was great last night.

2266
01:41:51,439 --> 01:41:52,920
Speaker 3: All right, So go ahead, you want to go you

2267
01:41:52,920 --> 01:41:54,800
want to chew on those five numbers there? What do

2268
01:41:54,880 --> 01:41:55,079
you think?

2269
01:41:55,239 --> 01:41:58,600
Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, I mean, I think though those certainly all matter.

2270
01:41:59,439 --> 01:42:02,840
I think those are some good reasons why the Rockets

2271
01:42:02,880 --> 01:42:04,800
aren't where they are. I think the biggest reason of

2272
01:42:04,840 --> 01:42:06,800
the five you listed is Fred van Vliet not being

2273
01:42:06,840 --> 01:42:09,039
here And it's something we knew going in and it's

2274
01:42:09,079 --> 01:42:11,359
been baked in and it's been for.

2275
01:42:11,279 --> 01:42:12,119
Speaker 3: Eighty two games.

2276
01:42:12,159 --> 01:42:13,520
Speaker 2: But he was supposed to be a key part of

2277
01:42:13,520 --> 01:42:16,119
this Rockets team and he missed eighty two games.

2278
01:42:16,560 --> 01:42:17,840
Speaker 3: That just is what it is. I mean.

2279
01:42:18,119 --> 01:42:20,439
Speaker 2: I had a caller ask me last night, like if

2280
01:42:20,680 --> 01:42:22,840
would this team beat last year's team like as the

2281
01:42:22,840 --> 01:42:24,840
way they are right now, I don't know that they would.

2282
01:42:25,159 --> 01:42:27,119
But with Fred van Vliet and Steven Adams, which is

2283
01:42:27,159 --> 01:42:30,800
how rauffel Stone constructed this team, not even close.

2284
01:42:31,119 --> 01:42:32,199
Speaker 3: It's a better team.

2285
01:42:32,720 --> 01:42:36,279
Speaker 2: Are they better than the Thunder or the Spurs? Certainly

2286
01:42:36,680 --> 01:42:38,479
not the Thunder and the Spurs. It would be a

2287
01:42:38,520 --> 01:42:41,079
little closer, but I think probably the Spurs. It took

2288
01:42:41,119 --> 01:42:43,880
that big leap and passed you up, unfortunately. But this

2289
01:42:44,039 --> 01:42:48,279
is not the team raffel Stone envisioned. And it's the

2290
01:42:48,560 --> 01:42:51,399
fact of the matter is the major injuries. It's it's

2291
01:42:51,399 --> 01:42:53,279
not you know, he twisted an ankle, He's out for

2292
01:42:53,319 --> 01:42:55,359
a couple of weeks, missed the entire season with the

2293
01:42:55,359 --> 01:42:57,359
torn acl an entire season.

2294
01:42:58,760 --> 01:42:59,479
Speaker 3: It's bad luck.

2295
01:42:59,680 --> 01:43:05,079
Speaker 2: Fred point guard check yes, Fred floor lad check that

2296
01:43:05,319 --> 01:43:08,600
moxie that you're missing with Dylan Brooks would be less

2297
01:43:08,640 --> 01:43:11,600
of an absorbed if you had a guy like Fred

2298
01:43:11,600 --> 01:43:13,479
out there who was ready to throw hands when necessary

2299
01:43:13,520 --> 01:43:18,600
as well. And also Fred not a prolific three point shooter,

2300
01:43:18,680 --> 01:43:20,800
but there'd be times. I got back to Game six

2301
01:43:20,800 --> 01:43:23,520
of the Western first round series last year where he

2302
01:43:23,560 --> 01:43:25,640
basically won that basketball game with you by knocking down

2303
01:43:25,640 --> 01:43:27,399
three after three after three. Yeah, he's like a thirty

2304
01:43:27,399 --> 01:43:29,239
seven thirty eight percent shooter last year.

2305
01:43:30,039 --> 01:43:31,520
Speaker 3: That that's great.

2306
01:43:31,359 --> 01:43:33,279
Speaker 2: That's exactly what you need and that's what you're He

2307
01:43:33,399 --> 01:43:36,199
gets you into your offense and he can shoot and

2308
01:43:36,239 --> 01:43:39,039
space the floor and he helps you in those ways.

2309
01:43:39,039 --> 01:43:41,039
And he's got a great assistant turnover ratio. What is

2310
01:43:41,039 --> 01:43:43,079
one of the rockets biggest problems been all season? How

2311
01:43:43,079 --> 01:43:45,199
many times is emandok had been asked about turnovers this

2312
01:43:45,279 --> 01:43:49,840
year between US, pregame, post game everything, yep, A billion

2313
01:43:49,920 --> 01:43:53,800
times and ultimately two He also played thirty five thirty

2314
01:43:53,800 --> 01:43:54,640
six minutes a game.

2315
01:43:55,039 --> 01:43:57,279
Speaker 3: You had to absorb that by other people.

2316
01:43:57,680 --> 01:43:59,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right. By the end of the season he

2317
01:43:59,600 --> 01:44:01,359
was at thirty four percent from three, but he thirty

2318
01:44:01,359 --> 01:44:04,680
eight point seven the year before so career thirty seven

2319
01:44:04,720 --> 01:44:07,560
percent shooter. That's about what he's shooting as a rocket.

2320
01:44:08,159 --> 01:44:12,279
You're missing that big time. Oh, by the way, championship pedigree.

2321
01:44:12,439 --> 01:44:16,439
Guy's got a ring and can say calm the f down. Now,

2322
01:44:16,479 --> 01:44:17,800
you can calm the f down when you're the when

2323
01:44:17,800 --> 01:44:19,720
the when you're in the huddle. But you gotta put

2324
01:44:19,720 --> 01:44:20,199
the uniform on.

2325
01:44:20,319 --> 01:44:21,880
Speaker 3: It doesn't do It doesn't carry the same weight when

2326
01:44:21,920 --> 01:44:24,239
you're when you're in new street clothes. When when when?

2327
01:44:24,479 --> 01:44:27,199
Speaker 2: When is the Rockets offense looks most out of sorts?

2328
01:44:27,199 --> 01:44:30,039
It's it can be in clutch time in late situations,

2329
01:44:30,079 --> 01:44:32,159
and that's when Fred van Vliet thrives when you need

2330
01:44:32,199 --> 01:44:34,000
to get into your offense, when you need somebody who's

2331
01:44:34,000 --> 01:44:36,319
gonna calm everything down to be that floor general. And

2332
01:44:36,319 --> 01:44:41,439
he's gone. Let's talk to uh Mark in humbol at

2333
01:44:41,479 --> 01:44:43,800
twelve forty one on seven, Unty Mark, thank you for

2334
01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:45,520
waiting in good afternoon.

2335
01:44:46,640 --> 01:44:48,239
Speaker 6: Well one on one of the Rockets.

2336
01:44:48,279 --> 01:44:51,880
Speaker 19: Just good and time the season. You know they ain't

2337
01:44:51,880 --> 01:44:54,600
got a chance a snowball's chance of winning anything in

2338
01:44:54,640 --> 01:44:58,000
the in the playoffs? Ininghow not with all the turnovers?

2339
01:44:58,039 --> 01:45:00,680
Are you they already go to work for app or something.

2340
01:45:01,840 --> 01:45:06,600
And uh, I think all these turnovers is a lack

2341
01:45:06,640 --> 01:45:11,439
of discipline which comes from the coach. You know, I've

2342
01:45:11,479 --> 01:45:15,119
been saying it all year long. Nobody wants to hear

2343
01:45:15,159 --> 01:45:16,880
me out, But all right, well.

2344
01:45:16,720 --> 01:45:18,560
Speaker 2: Mark, I'm gonna give you a shot. Here, Mark, Mark,

2345
01:45:18,560 --> 01:45:22,159
I'm gonna give you a shot. Tell me what lack

2346
01:45:22,239 --> 01:45:24,319
of discipline Emadoka has.

2347
01:45:24,359 --> 01:45:25,640
Speaker 3: I'm very curious on this.

2348
01:45:27,760 --> 01:45:32,560
Speaker 19: Let mean, make them make them responsible for their turnovers.

2349
01:45:35,199 --> 01:45:35,960
Speaker 2: Oh by doing what?

2350
01:45:38,359 --> 01:45:44,840
Speaker 19: By doing extra work and practice and stuff. I don't know,

2351
01:45:45,479 --> 01:45:49,640
It's just it's been the same old way every year.

2352
01:45:49,760 --> 01:45:52,720
I mean this whole year, they didn't have near the

2353
01:45:52,760 --> 01:45:53,960
turnovers last year.

2354
01:45:54,680 --> 01:45:57,840
Speaker 2: Well why is that, Mark, Because, for the love of God,

2355
01:45:57,920 --> 01:45:59,960
Fred Bambley was running point. They don't have a point

2356
01:46:00,119 --> 01:46:03,800
guard right now. They just don't tell me there's a change.

2357
01:46:03,800 --> 01:46:05,319
There's a difference in a year to year because the

2358
01:46:05,399 --> 01:46:07,840
number one point guard's hurt hadn't played a single minute.

2359
01:46:07,880 --> 01:46:09,479
Speaker 3: That's the reason why the turnovers are up.

2360
01:46:09,600 --> 01:46:11,960
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not trying to dumb this down for

2361
01:46:11,960 --> 01:46:14,920
the audience, but Jesus.

2362
01:46:14,720 --> 01:46:17,640
Speaker 19: But why do they have to doing the bringing it

2363
01:46:17,720 --> 01:46:18,159
up court?

2364
01:46:20,079 --> 01:46:22,880
Speaker 2: Did you watch last night, there was a combination of

2365
01:46:22,960 --> 01:46:24,079
four different people doing it.

2366
01:46:25,520 --> 01:46:27,800
Speaker 19: Actually missed last night that I was.

2367
01:46:28,319 --> 01:46:30,000
Speaker 2: Well, then you can't call me and tell me that

2368
01:46:30,039 --> 01:46:31,560
you rant did it all if you didn't wantch the

2369
01:46:31,600 --> 01:46:33,479
game or listen to it here on Sports Talks of

2370
01:46:33,520 --> 01:46:36,520
minety Mark, thank you for the phone call.

2371
01:46:36,760 --> 01:46:38,880
Speaker 3: I don't think I we're gonna agree on any of this.

2372
01:46:39,039 --> 01:46:43,279
Speaker 2: I just make him new extra practices, make him dig

2373
01:46:43,359 --> 01:46:45,520
and makes your show. What the hell? What are y'all

2374
01:46:45,560 --> 01:46:49,479
thinking this? People? Come on, not small time high school basketball.

2375
01:46:49,479 --> 01:46:52,239
You're talking about professionals that are making for dollars a

2376
01:46:52,319 --> 01:46:54,479
year run suicide. So what do you what do you

2377
01:46:54,520 --> 01:46:57,359
want here? I mean, come on, They're gonna make him

2378
01:46:57,399 --> 01:47:00,560
run gassers. Still he stops turning the ball over. This

2379
01:47:00,560 --> 01:47:02,439
this is in high school. This is not your eighth

2380
01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:06,359
grade co B team, Okay. Kevin Durant's averaging three point

2381
01:47:06,399 --> 01:47:08,600
two turnovers a game for the Rockets, and he always

2382
01:47:08,600 --> 01:47:10,600
wants to turn on a machine. He averaged three point

2383
01:47:10,680 --> 01:47:14,199
one for his career. He's around his career average. This

2384
01:47:14,319 --> 01:47:16,800
is just who he is. This is not going to change.

2385
01:47:17,079 --> 01:47:19,279
He averaged three and three point two two years in

2386
01:47:19,319 --> 01:47:22,560
Golden State. I mean that this is Kevin Durant. He's

2387
01:47:22,600 --> 01:47:25,279
going to turn the ball over some I know, it's frustrating,

2388
01:47:25,279 --> 01:47:27,239
and it's hard to watch. He's not a point guard,

2389
01:47:29,840 --> 01:47:32,720
and and and unfortunately you're just gonna run into these

2390
01:47:32,760 --> 01:47:36,680
issues and and that is really high comedy's saying. He

2391
01:47:36,720 --> 01:47:40,479
may a Dooka is not holding anybody accountable. You guys

2392
01:47:40,520 --> 01:47:43,279
don't know he made Doka. He makes you accountable. I

2393
01:47:43,359 --> 01:47:44,359
had somebody called.

2394
01:47:44,199 --> 01:47:46,199
Speaker 3: Me last night and say, he doesn't chew them out.

2395
01:47:47,560 --> 01:47:49,479
Are you watching these games?

2396
01:47:49,880 --> 01:47:52,359
Speaker 2: He may Doka doesn't chew them out. I talked to

2397
01:47:52,399 --> 01:47:53,960
him for four minutes and guy, and I'm scared to this.

2398
01:47:54,520 --> 01:47:55,560
Speaker 3: You choose me out?

2399
01:47:55,840 --> 01:47:59,319
Speaker 2: I got, of course, what was that? He called me

2400
01:47:59,359 --> 01:48:02,560
a soft ab be later night, Come on, coach your rodcaster,

2401
01:48:02,840 --> 01:48:05,199
no nonsense as it gets. And that's what the players

2402
01:48:05,399 --> 01:48:08,479
like from him. There's accountability. Just because you're not seeing

2403
01:48:08,479 --> 01:48:11,560
improvement doesn't mean I mean with the with the turnover stuff,

2404
01:48:13,039 --> 01:48:15,479
doesn't mean the coach just doesn't care or is checked

2405
01:48:15,520 --> 01:48:20,199
out or anything like that. Gang they're trying. If you

2406
01:48:20,279 --> 01:48:25,119
watched the game last night, they were competitive. The Lakers

2407
01:48:25,159 --> 01:48:27,840
are playing at a different level right now, and that hurts.

2408
01:48:28,119 --> 01:48:30,399
Speaker 3: They had Luka Doncic last night. You didn't.

2409
01:48:31,399 --> 01:48:36,479
Speaker 2: Unfortunately it was a Laker team that's super super hot

2410
01:48:36,600 --> 01:48:40,560
right now. But there was guys that were diving for basketball.

2411
01:48:40,560 --> 01:48:42,199
Who was the guy with a dope for the back?

2412
01:48:42,560 --> 01:48:46,199
You had luc up Dalo, you had Josha Kogie fighting

2413
01:48:46,199 --> 01:48:50,720
for the loose. I mean, they're look, I've called a thousand.

2414
01:48:50,439 --> 01:48:53,039
Speaker 3: NBA games in my life. I've seen games where the

2415
01:48:53,079 --> 01:48:54,399
team doesn't care.

2416
01:48:55,600 --> 01:48:58,560
Speaker 2: And if they didn't care, it'd be way easier to

2417
01:48:58,600 --> 01:49:00,279
figure this one out. Yeah.

2418
01:49:00,600 --> 01:49:05,760
Speaker 3: Good where it's just it's frustrating. I know it's frustrating, But.

2419
01:49:05,720 --> 01:49:11,600
Speaker 2: Don't care undisciplined repeating history. You're only dealing with the

2420
01:49:11,640 --> 01:49:14,840
rosss you have in front. I mean, I don't believe,

2421
01:49:15,399 --> 01:49:17,920
I know this from the facts. I don't believe that

2422
01:49:18,199 --> 01:49:20,560
they think that Aaron Holliday can can run the point

2423
01:49:20,600 --> 01:49:23,279
for this team. If that was the case, you may

2424
01:49:23,279 --> 01:49:24,760

Speaker 2: Yes, you get my money journalism, Athletic and Chronicle got

2491
01:52:30,399 --> 01:52:34,520
my money. But I'm not big on the Houston Business Journal.

2492
01:52:34,520 --> 01:52:37,039
Speaker 3: I'm so somebody do some legwork for us.

2493
01:52:37,159 --> 01:52:39,840
Speaker 2: Are is it literally? Are they the only business that

01:52:39,880 --> 01:52:41,600
got run? Or are they are there? Are there among

2495
01:52:41,640 --> 01:52:45,840
a hundred? I hope that they're h It doesn't say

2496
01:52:45,880 --> 01:52:48,119
they were named the best or one of the best. Yeah,

2497
01:52:48,119 --> 01:52:49,520
that's the That's what I'm trying to figure out. What

2498
01:52:49,600 --> 01:52:53,199
is it? It's just that tweet says Houston's Best, meaning

2499
01:52:53,239 --> 01:52:55,640
that's there going to be a best family. Maybe it's

2500
01:52:55,760 --> 01:52:58,039
like among Houston's you think you call it Houston's Best

2501
01:52:58,039 --> 01:53:00,560
and you make a list. I'm gonna began to bet

2502
01:53:00,600 --> 01:53:03,439
that's what's happened. Okay, I'm gonna hope that's what's happening.

2503
01:53:03,600 --> 01:53:08,079
Another tweet that just came in from Irvin Magic Johnson.

2504
01:53:08,479 --> 01:53:11,479
Oh no, can I though I haven't seen it, let

01:53:11,479 --> 01:53:15,640
me guess what a great win by the Los A

2506
01:53:15,880 --> 01:53:19,359
my Los Angeles Lakers over the Houston Rockets. Luka Doncic

2507
01:53:19,479 --> 01:53:22,840
is a special player and Lebron James is aging like

2508
01:53:22,880 --> 01:53:23,720
a fine wine.

2509
01:53:26,319 --> 01:53:27,159
Speaker 3: How far off am I?

2510
01:53:27,359 --> 01:53:27,840
Speaker 2: Uh?

2511
01:53:27,880 --> 01:53:31,880

2512
01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:32,479
Speaker 2: Okay.

2513
01:53:32,640 --> 01:53:35,279
Speaker 3: The one I saw that came down an hour ago

2514
01:53:35,399 --> 01:53:37,079
is interesting. Hoot of states making a run?

2515
01:53:37,399 --> 01:53:37,680
Speaker 2: All right?

2516
01:53:37,880 --> 01:53:40,680

01:53:47,920 --> 01:53:52,720
count Dakota State in the INNTBLA Tournament. Go Green, Go white.

2520
01:53:53,000 --> 01:53:55,600
Speaker 3: Okay, innocent enough?

2521
01:53:55,680 --> 01:53:59,720
Speaker 2: Right? Yes? Why in the world would he put it

2522
01:53:59,840 --> 01:54:02,680
one one pm Pacific, four pm Eastern time? Who does that?

2523
01:54:03,319 --> 01:54:05,920
What do you mean? Do you ever put down what

01:54:05,960 --> 01:54:07,800
you're doing at a certain time or a certain time

2525
01:54:07,840 --> 01:54:12,119
game is on? Why would he write that? I don't know.

2526
01:54:12,159 --> 01:54:14,399
Have you seen his tweets. That's what I'm saying. That's

2527
01:54:14,520 --> 01:54:15,199
very odd.

2528
01:54:16,399 --> 01:54:18,920
Speaker 3: He just always puts something weird in there.

2586
01:57:12,680 --> 01:57:15,399
that's a fourteen and a half or ooh, I remember

2587
01:57:15,399 --> 01:57:18,159
I have USF beating Louisville. There's that going. Cardinals are

2588
01:57:18,359 --> 01:57:21,800
up ten late first, it's early. It's not okay, it's

2589
01:57:21,840 --> 01:57:24,520
not that early, but it's kind of early. Wisconsin lead's

2590
01:57:24,600 --> 01:57:27,039
high point twenty to fourteen with eleven thirty seven left

2591
01:57:27,079 --> 01:57:27,880
to go in the first of it.

2592
01:57:28,479 --> 01:57:29,319
Speaker 3: And that's it.

2593
01:57:30,079 --> 01:57:33,119
Speaker 2: And of course, uh now, Ohio State leads TCU fifty

2594
01:57:33,199 --> 01:57:34,239
seven and fifty five.

2595
01:57:35,600 --> 01:57:38,399
Speaker 3: That's sad one's getting close and late four twenty eight

2596
01:57:38,439 --> 01:57:38,640
to go.

2597
01:57:40,079 --> 01:57:43,359
Speaker 2: Are Cougars America's Cougar's playing nine ten to night against

2598
01:57:43,359 --> 01:57:44,960
the idea based America's Cougars.

2599
01:57:45,239 --> 01:57:45,720
Speaker 3: No, they're not.

2600
01:57:45,800 --> 01:57:48,079
Speaker 2: They're They have a bigger nationwide fan base than the INN.

2601
01:57:48,159 --> 01:57:49,680
That's because they're religious background.

2602
01:57:49,760 --> 01:57:53,239
Speaker 3: Well, I'm sorry the facts of the facts. Nobody claims

2603
01:57:53,279 --> 01:57:54,800
by US America's team.

2604
01:57:55,000 --> 01:57:58,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they do. No, they don't. He playing

2605
01:57:58,479 --> 01:58:01,800
utn't even claim them. No, the religious faith the LDS does, Yeah,

2606
01:58:01,840 --> 01:58:04,560
they do. People in Utah claim them. Now some of

2607
01:58:04,600 --> 01:58:08,279
it does nationwide. They're bad and they're nationwide. The BYU

2608
01:58:08,319 --> 01:58:09,600
could and they're.

2609
01:58:09,439 --> 01:58:13,359
Speaker 3: Going down go along hornes, hook them horns.

2610
01:58:13,399 --> 01:58:15,439
Speaker 2: As a former voice the University of Utah, I wish

2611
01:58:15,479 --> 01:58:16,680
you the Texas ones.

2612
01:58:16,720 --> 01:58:20,720
Speaker 3: Okay, that's a blood feud over there. They do not

2613
01:58:20,880 --> 01:58:21,399
like each other.

2614
01:58:21,640 --> 01:58:25,000
Speaker 2: That cuts through family lions. Because you got Utah people

2615
01:58:25,000 --> 01:58:26,880
that go to BYU. You got BYU people that go

2616
01:58:26,920 --> 01:58:29,439
to Utah. See what's like the history of football wise

2617
01:58:29,479 --> 01:58:32,119
they like a fifty fifty or is that BYU holds

2618
01:58:32,119 --> 01:58:35,600
the edge has been kicking ass. Utah has typically been

2619
01:58:35,680 --> 01:58:39,600
kicking their ass, but the last ten years, probably fifty

2620
01:58:39,600 --> 01:58:40,279
to fifty on that.

2621
01:58:40,399 --> 01:58:40,720
Speaker 8: Okay.

2622
01:58:41,920 --> 01:58:46,199
Speaker 2: Oh, now TCU leads fifty eight to fifty seven. It's

2623
01:58:46,439 --> 01:58:47,640
it gets till plenty of time.

2624
01:58:48,239 --> 01:58:49,920
Speaker 3: Oh, it's the Holy War. That's what they call their

2625
01:58:50,000 --> 01:58:51,800
rival Yes, okay.

2626
01:58:51,920 --> 01:58:57,079
Speaker 2: Uh quickly my top six rivalries. Oh, Utah's leads all

2627
01:58:57,159 --> 01:58:59,880
time sixty two to thirty seven. That's crazy.

2628
01:58:59,880 --> 01:59:01,960
Speaker 3: I think it's bigger a description. B Yu says, it's

2629
01:59:01,960 --> 01:59:03,239
only fifty nine to thirty four.

2630
01:59:04,039 --> 01:59:06,720
Speaker 2: That's how you of agent rights they have shed? Oh yeah,

2631
01:59:06,760 --> 01:59:10,159
they do, and they always fight about it. It's not fight,

2632
01:59:10,199 --> 01:59:12,359
but they're like, how do they how do they verify

2633
01:59:12,399 --> 01:59:13,960
the old scores? I don't know.

2634
01:59:14,000 --> 01:59:16,760
Speaker 3: It's like somebody wrote a letter to their dearest deathly

2635
01:59:17,239 --> 01:59:20,960
we defeated. Tell me where I go wrong.

2636
01:59:21,000 --> 01:59:24,520

Utah across the country Florida Florida State is bigger than you,

2644
01:59:47,960 --> 01:59:50,840
b Yu. No Colos football.

2645
01:59:51,479 --> 01:59:53,039
Speaker 3: He heard his piping hot takes.

2646
01:59:53,079 --> 01:59:56,840
Speaker 2: They're horrible, Yeah they are. They are hot taking. He

2647
01:59:56,960 --> 01:59:58,880
said all of this walking videos outside of his.

2648
01:59:59,159 --> 02:00:00,000
Speaker 3: His backyard too?

2649
02:00:00,159 --> 02:00:00,800
Speaker 2: Was that all about?

2650
02:00:02,079 --> 02:00:05,319
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know. Cole Thompson's over here. Cole's don't

2651
02:00:05,359 --> 02:00:05,840
want to video.

2652
02:00:06,159 --> 02:00:06,479
Speaker 2: You know what.

2653
02:00:06,520 --> 02:00:08,880
Speaker 3: I have to defer. Now, I don't mind arguing with you,

2654
02:00:08,920 --> 02:00:11,079
but I could defer he is a college football expert.

2655
02:00:11,119 --> 02:00:14,840
Speaker 2: So yeah, if Cole Thompson says it.

2656
02:00:14,119 --> 02:00:18,079
Speaker 3: I guess who's the rivalry again, Florida Florida State.

2657
02:00:19,640 --> 02:00:22,720
Speaker 2: I would say Florida Miami's bigger. Miami Florida State's actually

2658
02:00:22,720 --> 02:00:23,600
bigger than that. I said.

2659
02:00:23,680 --> 02:00:27,039
Speaker 3: We're talking about historically over the last ten years. Historically.

2660
02:00:27,479 --> 02:00:31,239
Speaker 2: Okay, I've been to a Florida Miami game. Yeah, but

2661
02:00:31,319 --> 02:00:33,880
b Yu, I mean the BYU is winning national championships

2662
02:00:33,880 --> 02:00:34,640

2663
02:00:35,159 --> 02:00:38,319
Speaker 3: That game just doesn't have the's. But but that's an

2664
02:00:38,439 --> 02:00:39,439

Speaker 8: On you all right?

2686
02:01:28,840 --> 02:01:31,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I consider myself one of your same callers and

2687
02:01:31,840 --> 02:01:34,039
listeners and we'll be the judge of that on.

2688
02:01:34,479 --> 02:01:36,000
Speaker 3: Jay's right, Jay's correct.

2689
02:01:36,600 --> 02:01:41,479
Speaker 5: I know the voice, yeah, because because when you when

2690
02:01:41,479 --> 02:01:46,640
you'll get after people that's making these random uh solutions

2691
02:01:46,680 --> 02:01:49,159
the problems, and then you ask well, well what's the

2692
02:01:49,439 --> 02:01:51,359
what's the solution? Then they get quiet and so I

2693
02:01:51,359 --> 02:01:53,760
stood it And the first word that come out to mab,

2694
02:01:54,039 --> 02:01:57,720
I don't know, baby tried something different stuff to be hilarious.

2695
02:01:58,039 --> 02:02:00,960
People don't know what they talking about, but uh, my

2696
02:02:01,079 --> 02:02:04,760
question is regarding the Rockets this season at this point,

2697
02:02:04,920 --> 02:02:07,760
you know, with all the injuries and everything, I think

2698
02:02:07,920 --> 02:02:09,840
just getting out of the first round would be a

2699
02:02:09,920 --> 02:02:12,720
positive for the direction of the team, considering all the

2700
02:02:12,800 --> 02:02:15,479
injuries deal. If we run it back, it'll be a

2701
02:02:15,479 --> 02:02:17,840
little bit better outcome and a little bit more support

2702
02:02:17,880 --> 02:02:19,680
for next year. But to me, they have to get

2703
02:02:19,720 --> 02:02:22,920
out this first round. And my question is, with the

2704
02:02:22,960 --> 02:02:25,800
turnovers and all that stuff, how do you foresee that happening?

2705
02:02:25,880 --> 02:02:28,800
Which opponent would be ideal for us to get out

2706
02:02:28,840 --> 02:02:32,279
the first round? And then my last thing, this is

2707
02:02:32,359 --> 02:02:36,119
just a joke towards y'all too. You know, I reap

2708
02:02:36,199 --> 02:02:38,800
PV and U of H. So I think TV is

2709
02:02:38,800 --> 02:02:40,439
gonna do what U of H didn't do and get

2710
02:02:40,520 --> 02:02:41,920
rid of Florida. And I hang up a listen.

2711
02:02:42,520 --> 02:02:51,079
Speaker 2: Oh he said it wasn't gonna say crazy things. The

2712
02:02:51,199 --> 02:02:59,439
chances of Perryview beating Florida zero percent. It's not point one,

2713
02:03:00,760 --> 02:03:06,479
not point zero zero zero zero one zero percent. There

2714
02:03:06,600 --> 02:03:12,319
is no chance, no way, no relax, he's just talking trash.

2715
02:03:12,359 --> 02:03:13,800
Speaker 3: God, you don't have to take it so serious.

2716
02:03:13,840 --> 02:03:14,760
Speaker 2: And he brought up Florida.

2717
02:03:14,880 --> 02:03:17,640
Speaker 3: Man, that's a sensitive ball, I feel. I see you're

2718
02:03:17,680 --> 02:03:18,319
being sensitive.

2719
02:03:18,319 --> 02:03:20,279
Speaker 2: I got you thirty five and a half point favorite.

2720
02:03:20,279 --> 02:03:22,359
It's like the biggest bread since nineteen ninety nine or

2721
02:03:22,399 --> 02:03:26,159
something like that. Prairie Review is I'm taking Florida on

2722
02:03:26,199 --> 02:03:27,880
the money line. Okay, yeah, thank you.

2723
02:03:27,880 --> 02:03:31,439
Speaker 3: It's my lock in a week. I need Ohio State

2724
02:03:31,479 --> 02:03:31,640
in this.

2725
02:03:31,840 --> 02:03:35,039
Speaker 2: Uh oh cool? How come everybody on TCU shoot sixty

2726
02:03:35,039 --> 02:03:36,520
five percent from the free throw line?

2727
02:03:36,680 --> 02:03:36,840
Speaker 11: Oh?

2728
02:03:37,399 --> 02:03:40,399
Speaker 3: This is this is college basketball? Actually episode The free

2729
02:03:40,399 --> 02:03:43,720
throw line sixty five seems to be about average? All right,

2730
02:03:44,000 --> 02:03:44,479
real quick?

2731
02:03:44,680 --> 02:03:48,640
Speaker 2: Uh. Most favorable opponent in the first round t Wolves,

2732
02:03:48,880 --> 02:03:51,079
t Wolves and Lakers. I don't know if the Lakers

2733
02:03:51,079 --> 02:03:52,880
are ever gonna then they're not gonna win nine out

2734
02:03:52,880 --> 02:03:54,880
of every ten. But they're playing their best basketball and

2735
02:03:54,880 --> 02:03:56,600
they've done it for about three and made the West

2736
02:03:56,600 --> 02:03:59,199
Finals to two games in a row. But Jokic and

2737
02:03:59,239 --> 02:04:04,640
the and the more hell healthy Nuggets scare me. Yeah,

2738
02:04:04,640 --> 02:04:07,720
I'm just kind of go. Bear doesn't scare me. Julius

2739
02:04:07,760 --> 02:04:10,560
Randall's good, Antonywards is hurting right. Edwards is, but he'll

2740
02:04:10,600 --> 02:04:14,800
be he should be fine. Yeah, there's no easy matchup

2741
02:04:14,840 --> 02:04:17,640
Teamles could could beat the Rockets in the first round.

2742
02:04:17,640 --> 02:04:19,199
Am I get me on the road the first two games?

2743
02:04:19,239 --> 02:04:21,399
Answer my question right now, and do not stutter.

2744
02:04:23,199 --> 02:04:24,760
Speaker 3: Do not sutter. Give me an answer.

2745
02:04:24,920 --> 02:04:25,279
Speaker 2: Where am I?

2746
02:04:25,399 --> 02:04:25,800
Speaker 3: Where am I?

2747
02:04:25,840 --> 02:04:26,039
Speaker 7: Am I?

2748
02:04:26,039 --> 02:04:27,399
Speaker 2: In Game one in Houston? Are in game one? And

2749
02:04:27,439 --> 02:04:30,560
somewhere else? I didn't hear you.

2750
02:04:31,039 --> 02:04:32,840
Speaker 3: Toyota Center, Houston, Toyota Center.

2751
02:04:32,960 --> 02:04:34,239
Speaker 2: I'm super confident, positive.

2752
02:04:34,239 --> 02:04:36,680
Speaker 3: I couldn't be more confident of anything in my entire life.

2753
02:04:38,159 --> 02:04:41,800
Speaker 2: Or I'm hoping for the best. They're the five seed

2754
02:04:41,880 --> 02:04:44,479
right now, Matt. They've lost three last four games.

2755
02:04:44,520 --> 02:04:44,840
Speaker 5: What is it?

2756
02:04:44,920 --> 02:04:46,920
Speaker 2: Why you wanted me to inspire some kind of confidence?

2757
02:04:47,039 --> 02:04:48,640
But he's got their ass kicked by the Lakers in

2758
02:04:48,680 --> 02:04:50,800
two different ways in two different games. But it's a

2759
02:04:50,840 --> 02:04:53,399
one game point guard. They can't figure out getting a

2760
02:04:53,479 --> 02:04:55,439
double team.

2761
02:04:55,479 --> 02:04:57,560
Speaker 3: But look at you say that, right, your right, You're right.

2762
02:04:57,560 --> 02:04:59,760
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. That was in Monday. They did better on

2763
02:04:59,760 --> 02:05:01,960
on Wednesday. I'm sorry I was heated. I want to

2764
02:05:01,960 --> 02:05:03,680
give you a Friday sorry for that one right now.

2765
02:05:03,600 --> 02:05:05,520
Speaker 3: Write it down. That's on the lift we got.

Speaker 3: I want to transition to an online calendar.

2770
02:05:14,079 --> 02:05:14,680
Speaker 2: I just know you don't.

2771
02:05:14,920 --> 02:05:16,319
Speaker 3: I can't do no, no, no, it's much better.

2772
02:05:16,800 --> 02:05:20,640
Speaker 2: I guess I'm just too old school, too old. I

2781
02:05:44,159 --> 02:05:46,439
half hour left to take.

2782
02:05:46,319 --> 02:05:48,560
Speaker 3: My notepads from me and maybe win rockets. I'm about

2788
02:06:01,880 --> 02:06:05,720
five bucks. Sources close to the show say those are dangerous.

2789
02:06:05,840 --> 02:06:09,119
The second plan for a safe right home. If you

2790
02:06:09,239 --> 02:06:13,239
drink one, you must eat. If you drink two of them,

2791
02:06:13,279 --> 02:06:14,159
you must not drive.

2792
02:06:17,560 --> 02:06:19,520
Speaker 3: So yes, Willie's Grill and ice House.

2793
02:06:19,560 --> 02:06:22,479
Speaker 2: We're at Barker Cypress and two ninety shows here until

02:06:26,000 --> 02:06:28,960

2797
02:06:32,680 --> 02:06:35,079
Speaker 6: Felling selling settlers as yus. You will love to show

2798
02:06:35,119 --> 02:06:38,359
a long time time in when I can real quick.

2799
02:06:38,920 --> 02:06:41,039
I got one comment a Man Durant. It seems like

2800
02:06:41,119 --> 02:06:43,560
every time I go in a Man Durant rash acts

2801
02:06:43,640 --> 02:06:46,119
like he needs a seat pop machine. So I'm a

2802
02:06:47,119 --> 02:06:50,880
do you guys realize that within ex session of the

2803
02:06:50,920 --> 02:06:53,720
third quarter of last night the last five quarters of

2804
02:06:53,840 --> 02:06:57,840
NBA basketball, Kevin Durant has scoring a looping seven points?

2805
02:06:57,840 --> 02:07:01,159
Speaker 2: Correct? Do you really eyes that he was getting double

2806
02:07:01,199 --> 02:07:03,039
teamed every time he touched the ball. And it's hard

2807
02:07:03,039 --> 02:07:06,079
to score points when they are planning game planning to

2808
02:07:06,199 --> 02:07:08,199
double and then take the ball out of your hands.

2809
02:07:09,680 --> 02:07:10,880
Speaker 15: I get that.

2810
02:07:12,960 --> 02:07:13,199
Speaker 2: Team.

2811
02:07:13,960 --> 02:07:17,560
Speaker 8: I also heavily last night.

2812
02:07:19,039 --> 02:07:21,079
Speaker 3: Is better than thirty seven year old Kevin Durant, I'm

2813
02:07:21,079 --> 02:07:21,399
with you.

2814
02:07:21,359 --> 02:07:23,720
Speaker 19: On that, Stott.

2815
02:07:23,800 --> 02:07:24,119
Speaker 8: Stott.

2816
02:07:26,319 --> 02:07:31,039
Speaker 3: He's got a better step back game better, he's better

2817
02:07:31,039 --> 02:07:31,880
and more athletic.

2818
02:07:34,319 --> 02:07:38,479
Speaker 8: Hello, I'm gonna.

2819
02:07:38,279 --> 02:07:42,600
Speaker 2: Put him on home for a second, Okay, because I'm

2820
02:07:42,680 --> 02:07:45,920
I again you keep saying these incorrect things, so it's like, yeah, yeah,

2821
02:07:46,199 --> 02:07:46,720
I'm with you.

2822
02:07:46,880 --> 02:07:49,720
Speaker 3: Kevin Durant is not as good as Luka Doncic. He's not.

2823
02:07:50,600 --> 02:07:52,920
He can't handle the double team as better as Luca Doncics.

2824
02:07:53,000 --> 02:07:55,199
Speaker 2: Luca Doncs has a better handle, he's a better dribbler,

2825
02:07:55,239 --> 02:07:58,840
he's a better passer. So yes, absolutely, Luca donc Tansel

2826
02:07:59,039 --> 02:08:01,039
handles a double double team better than Kevin Durant.

2827
02:08:01,319 --> 02:08:03,119
Speaker 3: Go ahead, kJ kJ the floors.

2828
02:08:04,039 --> 02:08:06,520
Speaker 6: Me see what I mean. I can't make a time

2829
02:08:06,720 --> 02:08:09,199
without you have multiple hours.

2830
02:08:09,239 --> 02:08:09,640
Speaker 2: I have a.

2831
02:08:09,560 --> 02:08:14,079
Speaker 6: Limited time, bro go get He's not he's right man

2832
02:08:14,119 --> 02:08:15,960
in ron Star too.

2833
02:08:16,960 --> 02:08:17,880
Speaker 3: That wasn't row as men.

2834
02:08:17,880 --> 02:08:20,039
Speaker 2: I just say't go what's going on?

2835
02:08:20,239 --> 02:08:20,479
Speaker 3: Gone?

2836
02:08:22,119 --> 02:08:26,119
Speaker 6: He he he he Literally, he literally is last. He

2837
02:08:26,279 --> 02:08:28,720
first superstar and getting double team it happens to him

2838
02:08:28,720 --> 02:08:31,800
the superstar in the league. But again, the primary reasons

2839
02:08:31,800 --> 02:08:34,640
I called in I wasn't necessarily about in the RAC.

2840
02:08:35,079 --> 02:08:38,039
The primary reason I called I'm a big fan of knkinuity.

2841
02:08:38,039 --> 02:08:40,479
I'm a big fan of chemistry. And one of the

2842
02:08:40,520 --> 02:08:42,760
reasons I think we had the success we had last

2843
02:08:42,840 --> 02:08:46,239
year as a team was because we had chemistry. There

2844
02:08:46,319 --> 02:08:48,840
was a that was a continuity there that that that's

2845
02:08:48,880 --> 02:08:52,279
not existed this year. But in the district at Joland

2846
02:08:52,279 --> 02:08:55,439
Greens short comings and the go to States series in

2847
02:08:55,479 --> 02:08:57,840
the playoffs, the fan that stood out the most to

2848
02:08:57,920 --> 02:09:00,479
me in that series was no my it was able

2849
02:09:00,520 --> 02:09:03,079
to make shots. I would line up going into the

2850
02:09:03,079 --> 02:09:05,680
season with the fred Ran Heeding he was a Kogie,

2851
02:09:06,000 --> 02:09:09,760
a Men Thompson, the Sun lineup, Jamari Durant and h

2852
02:09:10,880 --> 02:09:13,159
nobody in that lineup to shoot threes. With the accession

2853
02:09:13,159 --> 02:09:16,600
of direct Javari's riding the heater now. But Jamariy's even

2854
02:09:16,600 --> 02:09:19,159
going to the mid rands game more lately because he

2855
02:09:19,239 --> 02:09:22,359
doesn't competents in his shot. He's been decent in the

2856
02:09:22,439 --> 02:09:24,960
past a couple of games, but for the most part

2857
02:09:25,119 --> 02:09:27,680
he's not shooting threes. At the same time, his signed

2858
02:09:27,720 --> 02:09:31,239
in consistent Our Bitch Fun Maryland was n Shepherd, Steven

2859
02:09:31,319 --> 02:09:35,600
Adams and Tarry Easton. Ren Shepherd dcent three point shooters.

2860
02:09:35,600 --> 02:09:39,359
There's nobody in the lineup consistently, with the exception of

2861
02:09:39,399 --> 02:09:42,880
Kevin Durant and re Shepherd that's knocking down three. So

2862
02:09:43,000 --> 02:09:46,239
I think our primary issue with this team is when

2863
02:09:46,279 --> 02:09:48,960
you do the driving kickouts, when you do get double

2864
02:09:49,000 --> 02:09:52,319
team to Kevin Durant, you don't have anybody on this

2865
02:09:52,479 --> 02:09:55,640
Lonster who can consistently lock and down the shot and

2866
02:09:55,680 --> 02:09:58,680
that committed. That's a reference on Stone team for him

2867
02:09:58,720 --> 02:10:01,439
to make the comment earlier this I haven't love to know.

2868
02:10:01,520 --> 02:10:03,680
That was when he says that this may does not

2869
02:10:03,840 --> 02:10:04,439
be our year.

2870
02:10:04,920 --> 02:10:05,960
Speaker 8: Dude, what are you doing?

2871
02:10:06,119 --> 02:10:09,239
Speaker 6: We have a thirty seven year old superstar who surrounded

2872
02:10:09,279 --> 02:10:12,119
my much and drickly is and in the current time

2873
02:10:12,119 --> 02:10:13,560
in the NBA, if you don't have.

2874
02:10:13,560 --> 02:10:15,560
Speaker 8: At least two or three good shooters on your.

2875
02:10:15,439 --> 02:10:18,560
Speaker 6: Team, consistent shooters, not guys who get hot and team

2876
02:10:18,880 --> 02:10:21,520
consistent shooters, you're not going to time. I can go

2877
02:10:21,600 --> 02:10:23,560
on about some London things, but I think that is

2878
02:10:23,640 --> 02:10:26,800
a major prom with the way this team is constructed,

2879
02:10:26,960 --> 02:10:28,600
and it kind of makes me wonder how much of

2880
02:10:28,680 --> 02:10:31,640
the same paints wrap me up Stone and a female

2881
02:10:31,760 --> 02:10:34,039
dunk your own A damn fellow love to show me

2882
02:10:34,079 --> 02:10:35,600
and you're gonna go at it one day rosse.

2883
02:10:36,039 --> 02:10:38,239
Speaker 10: I love it, man, y'all can.

2884
02:10:38,079 --> 02:10:41,399
Speaker 3: Throw hands later. I don't care. Here's here's a lover,

2885
02:10:41,479 --> 02:10:43,399
not a fighter. I can throw hands.

2886
02:10:43,800 --> 02:10:47,600
Speaker 2: Go ahead. If this team would have done nothing but

2887
02:10:47,720 --> 02:10:51,119
run it back, the complaint would have been you ran

2888
02:10:51,199 --> 02:10:52,600
it back with a team that doesn't have a fourth

2889
02:10:52,640 --> 02:10:54,680
quarter shooter, a clutch shooter.

2890
02:10:54,800 --> 02:10:57,359
Speaker 3: Kevin Durant is a clutch shooter. I'm not gonna take

2891
02:10:57,359 --> 02:10:58,960
the sample size of the last couple of games.

2892
02:10:59,000 --> 02:10:59,279
Speaker 2: Intead.

2893
02:10:59,319 --> 02:11:01,439
Speaker 3: Kevin Durantz not been clutched for this basketball team.

2894
02:11:01,840 --> 02:11:05,600
Speaker 2: He has saved this team as Bacon Rossi on numerous occasions.

2895
02:11:05,760 --> 02:11:08,239
I'm not gonna You cannot dispute that with me.

2896
02:11:08,960 --> 02:11:09,560
Speaker 3: You just can't.

2897
02:11:11,159 --> 02:11:15,159
Speaker 2: You needed a fourth quarter score. Jalen Green couldn't do it.

2898
02:11:15,640 --> 02:11:18,319
Jalen Green's really not doing any Phoenix. Jalen Green's the

2899
02:11:18,319 --> 02:11:20,079
same player in Phoenix. He is. He just is. As

2900
02:11:20,119 --> 02:11:22,319
stuns fans how they're feeling about the Jalen Green experience

2901
02:11:22,399 --> 02:11:24,319
right now, it's up and it's down. It's what we've

2902
02:11:24,319 --> 02:11:27,319
seen from him the entire time. You needed something more consistent,

2903
02:11:27,520 --> 02:11:29,560
and you and folks, you all were again, let's not

2904
02:11:29,600 --> 02:11:31,520
revisit history here. Yeah, you were ready to run him

2905
02:11:31,520 --> 02:11:32,960
out of town after that Golden State series.

2906
02:11:33,039 --> 02:11:33,720
Speaker 3: It just worked.

2907
02:11:33,760 --> 02:11:35,960
Speaker 2: So they went all in with Kevin Durant, and unfortunately

2908
02:11:35,960 --> 02:11:38,800
two of your major rotation players got hurt. Alprin sching

2909
02:11:38,840 --> 02:11:40,479
Gun has been missing for a couple of games. It

2910
02:11:40,479 --> 02:11:42,640
hasn't been playing well if the par Tarry Easton is

2911
02:11:42,640 --> 02:11:45,640
regressing hard, and Dorian Finney Smith has been a bust

2912
02:11:45,640 --> 02:11:47,359
of a signing right as of this moment.

2913
02:11:48,439 --> 02:11:51,880
Speaker 3: So yeah, adds that all up. It's not going so hot,

2914
02:11:51,960 --> 02:11:53,960
and there's still fourth in the West. It's not a

2915
02:11:53,960 --> 02:11:58,920
disastrous season. They're just.

2916
02:12:00,680 --> 02:12:02,880
Speaker 2: We can save honestly, we can save some of this

2917
02:12:02,960 --> 02:12:05,560
conversation for when the season ends.

2918
02:12:05,560 --> 02:12:07,199
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, we can talk about this all

2919
02:12:07,239 --> 02:12:07,760
off season.

2920
02:12:08,640 --> 02:12:16,800
Speaker 2: Final score TCU sixty six scot Ohio State sixty four.

2921
02:12:17,199 --> 02:12:19,560
Speaker 3: Oh my god, everybody's brackets are busting now.

2922
02:12:22,159 --> 02:12:24,279
Speaker 2: But what Jonathan, you can't get you can't chime in.

2923
02:12:24,319 --> 02:12:24,920
We are hurting you.

2924
02:12:24,960 --> 02:12:26,560
Speaker 3: For an hours I had with my bracket in the

2925
02:12:26,560 --> 02:12:27,079
side show.

2926
02:12:27,359 --> 02:12:33,119
Speaker 2: All right, congratulations, are proud of you. It's great. Oh wait,

2927
02:12:33,479 --> 02:12:36,640
I just half court heat for Ohio State for the

2928
02:12:36,680 --> 02:12:38,880
win of the back and a half court.

2929
02:12:38,920 --> 02:12:41,279
Speaker 3: They had four seconds to get up court. What are

2930
02:12:41,279 --> 02:12:42,439
they doing as.

2931
02:12:42,399 --> 02:12:46,119
Speaker 2: TCU stifling defense? As a long toy? Hey, I've been

2932
02:12:46,159 --> 02:12:48,319
watching Ohio State basketball. I'm gonna tell you how long

2933
02:12:48,399 --> 02:12:51,960
for two hours? Your tim I just started Big twelve

2934
02:12:52,279 --> 02:12:55,039
greater than Big ten. I tell you this every single day.

2935
02:12:55,159 --> 02:12:59,279
Whatever I'm gonna cry, oh USFK, I know, never mind,

2936
02:12:59,279 --> 02:13:00,000
I misread the school.

2937
02:13:00,159 --> 02:13:00,960
Speaker 3: They're still down tent.

2938
02:13:01,079 --> 02:13:02,960
Speaker 2: I thought it hid thirty seven thirty seven, but it's

2939
02:13:02,960 --> 02:13:04,840
a twenty seven thirty seven event.

2940
02:13:04,920 --> 02:13:05,840
Speaker 3: You're on seven ninety.

2941
02:13:05,840 --> 02:13:06,239
Speaker 2: Go ahead.

2942
02:13:07,319 --> 02:13:10,520
Speaker 4: Hey, guys, So I have many thoughts on the Rockets,

2943
02:13:10,520 --> 02:13:13,079
but I'm not gonna inundate you with all that.

2944
02:13:13,159 --> 02:13:14,880
Speaker 8: But just one of the things that's really.

2945
02:13:14,600 --> 02:13:18,279
Speaker 4: Standing out to me is just the lack of fundamentals.

2946
02:13:18,680 --> 02:13:22,680
And I can't blame that on New Doka because those guys,

2947
02:13:22,880 --> 02:13:27,279
they're professional basketball players. I mean Kevin Durant, the two

2948
02:13:27,319 --> 02:13:32,199
backcourt deals that he's done, Albert Finney Smith and he

2949
02:13:32,279 --> 02:13:34,560
still is Albert Finty Smith in my in my opinion,

2950
02:13:34,960 --> 02:13:36,199
he threw they had.

2951
02:13:36,319 --> 02:13:37,520
Speaker 8: An easy fast break.

2952
02:13:37,800 --> 02:13:40,840
Speaker 18: He threw the ball way behind the guy they teach.

2953
02:13:40,600 --> 02:13:42,600
Speaker 14: You to throw the guy, the ball ahead.

2954
02:13:42,279 --> 02:13:46,720
Speaker 4: Of the guy, and it's just the fundamentals. The most

2955
02:13:46,720 --> 02:13:51,479
of the turnovers are unforced eighth grade type turnovers that

2956
02:13:51,600 --> 02:13:55,760
you see eighth graders do. And I don't know who

2957
02:13:55,800 --> 02:13:58,720
who's accountable, who holds them accountable for that.

2958
02:14:00,079 --> 02:14:05,399
Speaker 2: Fishing one man. Oh sorry, we're getting all people talking

2959
02:14:05,399 --> 02:14:08,600
to those on the show. That's all right, sorry, bitz,

2960
02:14:08,600 --> 02:14:11,840
thank you. Uh, it's not about fun. I mean, these

2961
02:14:11,840 --> 02:14:15,159
are NBA players. These are guys that are playing forty

2962
02:14:15,239 --> 02:14:17,680
minutes a game at the highest level possible fundamentals.

2963
02:14:17,680 --> 02:14:20,359
Speaker 3: That's not the chanel. Are there turnovers that will drive

2964
02:14:20,399 --> 02:14:20,960
you nuts?

2965
02:14:21,279 --> 02:14:23,439
Speaker 2: Absolutely, the behind the back pass it goes to the

2966
02:14:23,479 --> 02:14:26,000
second row, or that one turnover that out he had

2967
02:14:26,079 --> 02:14:27,880
last night that he threw behind was it a man

2968
02:14:27,880 --> 02:14:28,439
on the baseline?

2969
02:14:28,439 --> 02:14:30,920
Speaker 3: I think as it was? Or those kill you.

2970
02:14:32,399 --> 02:14:34,920
Speaker 2: This has been a you know, look, this has been

2971
02:14:34,920 --> 02:14:37,600
a high turnover team this year. I'm not going to

2972
02:14:37,680 --> 02:14:41,239
guarantee anything, but I can feel very confident saying that

2973
02:14:41,439 --> 02:14:45,600
if Fred van Vliek comes back next year and they

2974
02:14:45,640 --> 02:14:47,880
maybe do get another additional point guard to back him

2975
02:14:47,960 --> 02:14:52,039
up a true prototypical point, the turnovers will go down.

2976
02:14:52,680 --> 02:14:54,840
This still may be a high turnover team. But Fred

2977
02:14:54,920 --> 02:14:57,479
not only was a good ball handler, he gave you

2978
02:14:57,560 --> 02:14:59,800
major minutes, but he's also his assistant turnoble ratio, one

2979
02:14:59,800 --> 02:15:01,319
of the that made him so good. As this turnover

2980
02:15:01,399 --> 02:15:04,079
number was so low, you lose that you're putting ball

2981
02:15:04,119 --> 02:15:06,560
in hands of guys that have higher turnover counts. It

2982
02:15:06,600 --> 02:15:08,720
was just just it's never gonna change. It's been that

2983
02:15:08,760 --> 02:15:10,760
way this entire season. And I'm sorry to say it,

2984
02:15:11,000 --> 02:15:12,439
but it is a component of this team.

2985
02:15:12,720 --> 02:15:13,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, and.

2986
02:15:15,079 --> 02:15:18,800
Speaker 2: You don't expect Kevin Durant to have to carry as

2987
02:15:18,880 --> 02:15:21,279
much of the load of ball handling and initiating offense

2988
02:15:21,319 --> 02:15:23,479
that he's had to. And it's been it's been my committee,

2989
02:15:23,520 --> 02:15:25,159
it's been some of the men, it's been outby, it's

2990
02:15:25,199 --> 02:15:27,880
been Kevin Durant, it's been a bunch of different guys.

2991
02:15:27,920 --> 02:15:31,079
And that's it's everybody trying to shore up for missing

2992
02:15:31,119 --> 02:15:33,800
your point guards. So yes, it leads to the bad

2993
02:15:33,840 --> 02:15:36,960
turnovers because you just have guys they're not going to

2994
02:15:37,000 --> 02:15:38,800
have the handle in the passing ability of like prime

2995
02:15:38,880 --> 02:15:41,560
Chris Paul. It's just not passes are going to be missed.

2996
02:15:41,960 --> 02:15:43,479
Guys are going to pass inaccurately.

2997
02:15:43,520 --> 02:15:43,840
Speaker 3: You don't.

2998
02:15:43,880 --> 02:15:46,039
Speaker 2: You have good playmakers and decent passers, but you just

2999
02:15:46,079 --> 02:15:50,760
don't have anybody doing that necessarily at an elite level consistently.

3000
02:15:51,359 --> 02:15:53,199
All right, let's take a quick time out. We're gonna

3001
02:15:53,199 --> 02:15:54,520
talk to Jim and the Heights and then we'll get

3002
02:15:54,520 --> 02:15:57,079
a little bit of the Brian McTaggart conversation in love

3003
02:15:57,079 --> 02:15:58,760
It that we had earlier today with him. He's our

3004
02:15:58,800 --> 02:16:01,680
Astros insider from MLB dot comonostros dot com. Here that

3005
02:16:01,760 --> 02:16:04,520
next one p thirty Sports Talk seven ninety from Willis

3006
02:16:04,560 --> 02:16:08,279
two Nunti and Parker Cypress Jim and the Heights on

3007
02:16:08,439 --> 02:16:10,159
seven ninety. Go ahead, Jim.

3008
02:16:10,760 --> 02:16:13,399
Speaker 18: Hey, you guys know me as a regular caller, Jim

3009
02:16:13,439 --> 02:16:16,520
from the Heights. I grew up in Tomball, currently live

3010
02:16:16,600 --> 02:16:20,119
in Cyprus, born in Heights Hospital. But I'm also a

3011
02:16:20,119 --> 02:16:22,720
member of the LDS Church. So I don't fill your guys

3012
02:16:22,760 --> 02:16:25,439
in a little bit on what goes on. He's got

3013
02:16:25,439 --> 02:16:27,800
to send people out all over the world to do

3014
02:16:27,880 --> 02:16:31,319
missionary work, and so they end up, you know, all

3015
02:16:31,359 --> 02:16:33,719
over the world. So almost everybody that I go to

3016
02:16:33,799 --> 02:16:37,319
church with over in Cyprus didn't grow up in Houston

3017
02:16:37,680 --> 02:16:40,959
or the fair amount of them didn't, and so I

3018
02:16:41,120 --> 02:16:45,079
love being that guy from Texas. There they could play

3019
02:16:45,239 --> 02:16:49,079
anybody from Texas. B Yu plays Utep and man, I'm

3020
02:16:49,079 --> 02:16:52,520
talking about the miners. They can play you know, the

3021
02:16:52,680 --> 02:16:56,399
Padre Island Pelicans for all I care. And I'm talking.

3022
02:16:56,639 --> 02:16:59,159
I'm talking smack to these guys because they do get

3023
02:16:59,159 --> 02:17:02,280
a little of knock, I will tell you. And that's

3024
02:17:02,280 --> 02:17:05,920
from inside the circle. So a little bit of information

3025
02:17:06,040 --> 02:17:08,399
there for you guys. I know you're talking about it earlier,

3026
02:17:08,399 --> 02:17:09,319
but I couldn't get in.

3027
02:17:11,280 --> 02:17:12,799
Speaker 2: All right, Thanks for the phone. Thank you.

3028
02:17:13,680 --> 02:17:16,479
Speaker 3: Obnoxious BYU fans, They are obnoxious.

3029
02:17:18,040 --> 02:17:21,559
Speaker 2: What do they have to be obnoxious about?

3030
02:17:22,680 --> 02:17:25,399
Speaker 3: How do I put this delicately? Oh damn, Troy got

3031
02:17:25,399 --> 02:17:25,959
their asshood?

3032
02:17:26,159 --> 02:17:32,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, they may. How do I do this?

3033
02:17:32,799 --> 02:17:33,760
Speaker 3: You know I'm not gonna do it.

3034
02:17:33,840 --> 02:17:39,239
Speaker 2: Okay, I'll just say there's hypocrisy and everything, and I

3035
02:17:39,239 --> 02:17:43,639
think BYU fan can be a little hypocritical about how

3036
02:17:43,639 --> 02:17:45,120
they portray their lives.

3037
02:17:45,159 --> 02:17:46,959
Speaker 3: But when they become sportspersons there a.

3038
02:17:46,920 --> 02:17:50,120
Speaker 2: Little bit different. Oh okay, I'm gonna leave it at that.

3039
02:17:50,239 --> 02:17:52,879
Brian McTaggart MLB dot Com was a guest with US

3040
02:17:52,920 --> 02:17:56,000
earlier today is with us every Tuesday Live at eleven

3041
02:17:56,000 --> 02:17:58,120
o'clock and your chance right now to catch some of

3042
02:17:58,120 --> 02:18:00,959
the conversation. And I think Johnathan help me. I did

3043
02:18:01,000 --> 02:18:05,000
we start talking about the outfield conditions yesterday and Jupiter

3044
02:18:05,040 --> 02:18:06,440
that forced all of the players off. I think that's

3045
02:18:06,440 --> 02:18:08,879
where we got our visit with him about. And here

3046
02:18:09,000 --> 02:18:11,200
is some of our visit Ross and I had with

3047
02:18:11,239 --> 02:18:12,840
Brian mctagger earlier today.

3048
02:18:13,639 --> 02:18:16,120
Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't think they were super terrible.

3049
02:18:16,159 --> 02:18:18,479
Speaker 12: I mean it was just sort of it's right here

3050
02:18:18,520 --> 02:18:22,079
for a couple of days, pretty much NonStop, and so

3051
02:18:22,200 --> 02:18:24,319
there was a drizzle during the game. So I just

3052
02:18:24,440 --> 02:18:26,479
don't think they wanted to take any chances. I mean,

3053
02:18:26,520 --> 02:18:28,399
look at the lineup they had out there. I mean

3054
02:18:28,440 --> 02:18:30,280
they had pretty much their opening day line up out

3055
02:18:30,280 --> 02:18:33,120
there except for Jeremy Panya. So they just wanted to

3056
02:18:33,120 --> 02:18:35,840
take zero chances. And when I saw Perettas come off

3057
02:18:35,840 --> 02:18:39,079
the field in the middle of the third, I was like, Okay,

3058
02:18:39,120 --> 02:18:40,920
I think I see what's going on here, and then

3059
02:18:40,959 --> 02:18:44,079
Alvarez left and then al Tuvey and yeah, they just

3060
02:18:44,319 --> 02:18:46,040
he wanted those guys, I think, to get four to

3061
02:18:46,040 --> 02:18:48,639
five at three fourth bats. They ended up getting just two,

3062
02:18:48,719 --> 02:18:50,799
but they just didn't want to take any chances.

3063
02:18:51,120 --> 02:18:56,440
Speaker 2: So ironically enough, all the Twitter nervousness has meant was

3064
02:18:56,479 --> 02:18:57,959
nothing correct and mebody's doing okay.

3065
02:18:58,000 --> 02:18:59,639
Speaker 3: No injuries report of as it this morning.

3066
02:19:00,520 --> 02:19:02,559
Speaker 8: Yeah, no injuries. Yeah everybody.

3067
02:19:02,600 --> 02:19:05,719
Speaker 12: I mean, the Ashley's play a night game, so none

3068
02:19:05,719 --> 02:19:07,399
of the players are here yet. They do have the

3069
02:19:08,360 --> 02:19:11,079
spring breakout prospect games about the start, but yeah, the

3070
02:19:11,079 --> 02:19:12,879
major league club hasn't even reported yet.

3071
02:19:13,559 --> 02:19:15,040
Speaker 2: All right, before we get to the big picture on

3072
02:19:15,079 --> 02:19:17,520
the current twenty six, tell me about Walter Yannick and

3073
02:19:17,680 --> 02:19:20,120
tell me where he is, where he's going to be

3074
02:19:21,000 --> 02:19:25,280
and is he slow to move up the Astros organizational chart.

3075
02:19:27,040 --> 02:19:29,360
Speaker 8: Well, he probably opened more eyes here in this camp

3076
02:19:29,680 --> 02:19:33,120
than anybody else, especially when it came to prospects. I mean,

3077
02:19:33,159 --> 02:19:35,319
he really came in here and did a really good job.

3078
02:19:35,360 --> 02:19:38,680
Speaker 12: I think everybody knew what he could do defensively, the

3079
02:19:38,719 --> 02:19:41,520
elite pop time, the arm strength he showed all that

3080
02:19:42,760 --> 02:19:46,000
throwing behind runners at first base, showing off the arm,

3081
02:19:46,040 --> 02:19:47,760
I mean, it's all there. I think he's got major

3082
02:19:47,799 --> 02:19:52,760
league ready defensive skills, handled the pictures pretty well. So

3083
02:19:52,799 --> 02:19:55,280
they were really really pleased with what he.

3084
02:19:55,239 --> 02:19:56,239
Speaker 8: Did, and then he swung the.

3085
02:19:56,200 --> 02:20:00,200
Speaker 12: Bat too, hit a home run, made more contact, just

3086
02:20:00,200 --> 02:20:04,719
looked very comfortable up here against the pitching. So you know,

3087
02:20:04,760 --> 02:20:07,040
he's a guy that has spent pretty much the last

3088
02:20:07,280 --> 02:20:09,360
two years ever since he got drafted at High A,

3089
02:20:10,120 --> 02:20:12,360
and so, uh, yeah, he's going to start the season

3090
02:20:12,399 --> 02:20:14,600
I would say at Triple A Corporus Christi. He's from

3091
02:20:14,639 --> 02:20:18,239
Corporus Christie his hometown, so some home cooking. But I

3092
02:20:18,239 --> 02:20:19,840
could see him a Triple A by the end of

3093
02:20:19,879 --> 02:20:22,719
the year. And you know, whodos I mean, we all

3094
02:20:22,719 --> 02:20:25,799
know the Astros have a little bit of a drop

3095
02:20:25,840 --> 02:20:28,520
off and catching depth after a jainer, but we could

3096
02:20:28,639 --> 02:20:29,440
I wouldn't rule.

3097
02:20:29,319 --> 02:20:30,920
Speaker 8: Out seeing him in the big leagues by the end

3098
02:20:30,920 --> 02:20:32,479
of the year. But I think certainly next year he's

3099
02:20:32,479 --> 02:20:33,959
in the big leagues all right.

3100
02:20:34,000 --> 02:20:37,239
Speaker 2: Staying with the catcher's spot, is Vasquez the leader in

3101
02:20:37,239 --> 02:20:39,079
the clubhouse in your mind to be the number two

3102
02:20:39,159 --> 02:20:39,799
catcher behind you?

3103
02:20:39,879 --> 02:20:40,079
Speaker 4: On you.

3104
02:20:42,040 --> 02:20:44,959
Speaker 12: I wouldn't necessarily say that, Matt. I mean, I think

3105
02:20:45,000 --> 02:20:47,319
the fact that Salazar has been here all camp and

3106
02:20:47,319 --> 02:20:51,319
he's so he's so widely respected in the clubhouse by

3107
02:20:51,479 --> 02:20:54,879
you know, he's worked with these pitchers all spring. You

3108
02:20:54,879 --> 02:20:56,879
know he does swing a left handed bat, although you

3109
02:20:56,879 --> 02:20:59,399
know he hasn't swung much of a bat. I'm not

3110
02:20:59,440 --> 02:21:01,840
ready to say this is Basquez's job to lose. So

3111
02:21:02,680 --> 02:21:04,760
you know, Christian's first game, I think was it over

3112
02:21:04,799 --> 02:21:07,040
and breaks. The other day he did pretty well, So

3113
02:21:07,680 --> 02:21:09,639
I think right now it's a coin toss. It's fifty

3114
02:21:09,680 --> 02:21:11,680
to fifty depending what they're looking for. But I'm not

3115
02:21:11,719 --> 02:21:13,440
ready to rule out sales are making the open a

3116
02:21:13,520 --> 02:21:13,959
day roster.

3117
02:21:15,120 --> 02:21:17,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, but either way, Brian, it just doesn't seem like

3118
02:21:17,520 --> 02:21:19,840
a great option. I mean, then Diaz came into camp

3119
02:21:19,879 --> 02:21:22,920
with that foot sprain. Your one aggravation or any kind

3120
02:21:22,959 --> 02:21:26,600
of injury away from having to put Salazar or even

3121
02:21:26,639 --> 02:21:28,520
a Vasquez who hasn't put up good numbers in a

3122
02:21:28,520 --> 02:21:31,520
couple of years out there every single day. I mean,

3123
02:21:31,879 --> 02:21:33,600
how much.

3124
02:21:35,000 --> 02:21:37,040
Speaker 3: Of a should alarm bells be going off?

3125
02:21:37,079 --> 02:21:39,239
Speaker 2: I mean, it feels like it's not necessarily something we're

3126
02:21:39,239 --> 02:21:41,799
talking about every day, But you could be in a

3127
02:21:41,840 --> 02:21:43,479
bad situation here with just one.

3128
02:21:43,360 --> 02:21:47,040
Speaker 12: Injury, Yeah you could. I mean, they do have some

3129
02:21:47,159 --> 02:21:49,120
depth at the position. You know, they got Carlos Perez,

3130
02:21:49,120 --> 02:21:50,559
who's been in the big leagues, But I get it.

3131
02:21:50,600 --> 02:21:54,000
I mean, it's not the drop off after Diaz is

3132
02:21:54,079 --> 02:21:57,159
there's nobody you'd feel comfortable with getting the everyday starts.

3133
02:21:57,760 --> 02:22:00,000
But you know, I'll keep an eye over the next week.

3134
02:22:00,120 --> 02:22:01,600
Some guys are going to be getting cut.

3135
02:22:01,399 --> 02:22:03,680
Speaker 8: From camps right at the end of camp.

3136
02:22:03,959 --> 02:22:05,760
Speaker 12: You know, maybe if there's a catcher that they like

3137
02:22:06,440 --> 02:22:08,680
who they feel maybe is a better option for their

3138
02:22:08,959 --> 02:22:11,360
backup catcher, they can go and try to nab somebody.

3139
02:22:11,159 --> 02:22:13,440
Speaker 8: Off the off waivers or make a trade or whatever.

3140
02:22:13,520 --> 02:22:16,840
Speaker 12: But yeah, it is a concern, but you're right, they

3141
02:22:16,920 --> 02:22:18,959
have to hope you on your DS says healthy at

3142
02:22:18,959 --> 02:22:21,479
a position that's very demanding, and your one fouls hit

3143
02:22:21,559 --> 02:22:24,200
away from going on the IL. So it's I think

3144
02:22:24,200 --> 02:22:25,639
it's something they're going to be keeping an eye on

3145
02:22:25,639 --> 02:22:27,719
other team's rosters here for the next few days.

3146
02:22:28,440 --> 02:22:31,159
Speaker 2: Brian McTaggert with us here on a Sports Talk seven

3147
02:22:31,280 --> 02:22:35,239
ninety cover in the Astros for MLB dot Com. Tell

3148
02:22:35,280 --> 02:22:40,200
me what you're seeing hearing everything about Bryce Matthews in

3149
02:22:40,280 --> 02:22:42,799
terms of his work in the field, at the plate

3150
02:22:42,959 --> 02:22:45,280
and what type of role he could possibly carve out.

3151
02:22:45,280 --> 02:22:47,360
I know you had him making the roster in your projection.

3152
02:22:49,639 --> 02:22:52,360
Speaker 12: Yeah, I had to making the roster if if Penia

3153
02:22:52,600 --> 02:22:55,680
starts to starts the season on the I L which

3154
02:22:55,719 --> 02:22:58,000
I think right now again is probably.

3155
02:22:57,639 --> 02:22:59,079
Speaker 8: A fifty to fifty proposition.

3156
02:22:59,079 --> 02:23:01,719
Speaker 12: He's supposed to grab at start swinging this weekend, which

3157
02:23:02,399 --> 02:23:04,040
leads me to believe that he might be ready for

3158
02:23:04,040 --> 02:23:06,280
the start of the season. But you know, Bryce has

3159
02:23:06,280 --> 02:23:07,440
had a pretty good spring.

3160
02:23:08,120 --> 02:23:09,719
Speaker 8: You know, he's got a homer, driven.

3161
02:23:09,479 --> 02:23:11,959
Speaker 12: In some runs, he's stolen some bases and drawn some

3162
02:23:12,040 --> 02:23:14,719
watch which they really like. If he makes this club,

3163
02:23:14,760 --> 02:23:16,959
it'll be obviously is kind of the last guy off

3164
02:23:16,959 --> 02:23:20,440
the bench. He can play some second if they have to, uh,

3165
02:23:20,959 --> 02:23:25,079
you know, maybe put out two Vayu in DH or.

3166
02:23:25,319 --> 02:23:28,239
He can certainly play center field as well. So I

3167
02:23:28,239 --> 02:23:30,280
don't think he would get a ton of the bats.

3168
02:23:30,799 --> 02:23:33,559
You know, he's probably a better serve to go to

3169
02:23:33,639 --> 02:23:35,639
Triple A and then and then be ready for.

3170
02:23:35,600 --> 02:23:36,040
Speaker 8: A call up.

3171
02:23:36,079 --> 02:23:38,639
Speaker 12: They don't seem really motivated to play him at shortstop

3172
02:23:38,719 --> 02:23:41,399
going forward, the position he was drafted at. So but

3173
02:23:41,479 --> 02:23:42,760
he's looked pretty good in the outfield.

3174
02:23:42,760 --> 02:23:44,399
Speaker 8: He's I mean, he's very athletic. We know he was

3175
02:23:44,440 --> 02:23:45,760
a you know, a star quarterback.

3176
02:23:46,000 --> 02:23:48,319
Speaker 12: At a task of seta so he can certainly, he

3177
02:23:48,360 --> 02:23:50,520
certainly has the athleticism to handle center field.

3178
02:23:51,920 --> 02:23:54,920
Speaker 2: Ryan McTaggert with us from West Palm Beach, our MLB

3179
02:23:55,040 --> 02:23:57,680
Astros insider with us every Thursday at eleven o'clock here

3180
02:23:57,719 --> 02:24:01,280
on Sports Talk seven ninety Is ten Or Tremell fighting

3181
02:24:01,280 --> 02:24:03,120
for a spot or am I just looking at March

3182
02:24:03,159 --> 02:24:04,840
numbers and going man ten nice camp?

3183
02:24:04,879 --> 02:24:05,879
Speaker 3: But we know who he is.

3184
02:24:06,079 --> 02:24:10,559
Speaker 12: Ultimately, I think he I think he's got a really

3185
02:24:10,600 --> 02:24:12,239
good shot to make the team. Maybe he's not on

3186
02:24:12,280 --> 02:24:13,719
the forty man, so they would have to create a

3187
02:24:13,719 --> 02:24:16,079
spot for him. But if you look at the guys

3188
02:24:16,079 --> 02:24:19,399
that are battling for those four outfield spots, I mean

3189
02:24:19,840 --> 02:24:22,079
Jake Myers of course has made the team. I think

3190
02:24:23,399 --> 02:24:25,399
I think Cam Smith has made the team at this point.

3191
02:24:25,399 --> 02:24:28,239
He's had a pretty good spring eight seventy one ops.

3192
02:24:28,319 --> 02:24:30,920
Joey low Berfedo's had a great spring, so I think

3193
02:24:30,920 --> 02:24:32,840
he's a lot So I think.

3194
02:24:32,639 --> 02:24:35,440
Speaker 8: It'll come down to Trammel or Zach Cole.

3195
02:24:35,639 --> 02:24:38,959
Speaker 12: They both left handed, both have a little bit of pop,

3196
02:24:39,200 --> 02:24:41,799
can both play all three outfield positions, but but Cole

3197
02:24:41,920 --> 02:24:44,079
just has not swung the back very well this spring.

3198
02:24:44,200 --> 02:24:47,520
He's six for thirty two with sixteen strikeouts, which I

3199
02:24:47,520 --> 02:24:50,600
think is a big concern. So he hasn't even played

3200
02:24:50,600 --> 02:24:54,120
at Triple A yet very much. So I think I

3201
02:24:54,159 --> 02:24:56,559
think Cole right now begins the season in Triple A,

3202
02:24:57,079 --> 02:24:58,799
and I think Tremell makes this team.

3203
02:24:58,520 --> 02:25:00,879
Speaker 8: Because he has had a solid hand.

3204
02:25:01,239 --> 02:25:03,399
Speaker 12: You do know what you're getting, but you also know

3205
02:25:03,440 --> 02:25:05,440
what you're getting and you know you can put him

3206
02:25:05,440 --> 02:25:08,520
in any of those outfield spots. He's going to give

3207
02:25:08,520 --> 02:25:10,520
you some good defense and he will give you a

3208
02:25:10,520 --> 02:25:12,879
good at bat off the bench from from the left side.

3209
02:25:14,040 --> 02:25:17,879
Speaker 2: When you said sixteen strikeouts, might jaw drop, Brian. That's

3210
02:25:17,920 --> 02:25:19,879
that's a terrible that's a terrible number.

3211
02:25:20,639 --> 02:25:23,040
Speaker 12: It's fifty, I mean, and that that was the thing

3212
02:25:23,079 --> 02:25:25,319
on him coming up is he's very aggressive at the play.

3213
02:25:26,799 --> 02:25:29,399
You know, a swing hard and he makes contact. He

3214
02:25:29,479 --> 02:25:31,399
hits the ball hard, and he has hit the ball

3215
02:25:31,399 --> 02:25:33,000
hard this spring, but he's hit the ball hard on

3216
02:25:33,000 --> 02:25:36,399
the ground. But there's just too much swing and miss yet.

3217
02:25:36,479 --> 02:25:39,040
So I know it's something that that they're working on

3218
02:25:39,200 --> 02:25:42,600
with him. But that's that's just a lot of swing

3219
02:25:42,600 --> 02:25:45,479
and miss. So yeah, I think he'll be in Triple A,

3220
02:25:45,559 --> 02:25:47,239
and they'll try to get that ironed out before we

3221
02:25:47,280 --> 02:25:48,239
see him back up here.

3222
02:25:48,959 --> 02:25:52,399
Speaker 2: Staying with the outfield, Yourdon has been pulled twice because

3223
02:25:52,399 --> 02:25:57,319
of weather to play the outfield. How anxious when you

3224
02:25:57,360 --> 02:25:59,600
walk around the clubhouse. Is he's like, man, I got

3225
02:25:59,600 --> 02:26:01,719
this school up, I want to use it. Is he

3226
02:26:01,719 --> 02:26:04,040
getting enough working left field for his satisfaction? My guess

3227
02:26:04,079 --> 02:26:05,239
is probably the answer is not to that.

3228
02:26:07,360 --> 02:26:07,559
Speaker 5: Yeah.

3229
02:26:07,559 --> 02:26:08,719
Speaker 12: I mean he's done a lot of work on the

3230
02:26:08,719 --> 02:26:11,600
backfields too, So your And likes to play outfield. I

3231
02:26:11,600 --> 02:26:13,840
mean he he he would like to be out there

3232
02:26:13,920 --> 02:26:17,079
a couple of times a week. And I mean they

3233
02:26:17,120 --> 02:26:19,319
when they sign him to that big contract, they didn't

3234
02:26:19,319 --> 02:26:21,319
sign him as a DH. They sign him as an outfielder,

3235
02:26:21,360 --> 02:26:22,959
and you know he really likes to do it. Is

3236
02:26:22,959 --> 02:26:23,879
he a great outfielder?

3237
02:26:23,920 --> 02:26:24,000
Speaker 4: No?

3238
02:26:24,159 --> 02:26:24,840
Speaker 8: Is he a butcher?

3239
02:26:25,520 --> 02:26:25,680
Speaker 2: No?

3240
02:26:26,399 --> 02:26:28,399
Speaker 12: But I think the Astros know that they would like

3241
02:26:28,440 --> 02:26:30,559
to get a little more athletic out there, which is

3242
02:26:30,639 --> 02:26:32,639
you know, kind of their goal with where their outfield

3243
02:26:32,680 --> 02:26:36,000
is configured right now, so we can still see him

3244
02:26:36,000 --> 02:26:37,600
out here next few games. We the only have what

3245
02:26:37,719 --> 02:26:39,920
four games left here, A couple of couple of DIYK

3246
02:26:39,959 --> 02:26:42,920
in park. So he is going to play outfield this year.

3247
02:26:43,000 --> 02:26:45,479
Not a ton, but yeah, we will see him out there,

3248
02:26:45,479 --> 02:26:48,840
and he wants to do it, and I think Joe's

3249
02:26:48,879 --> 02:26:50,600
going to keep him out there enough to keep him

3250
02:26:50,600 --> 02:26:51,479
fresh and left field.

3251
02:26:53,040 --> 02:26:55,120
Speaker 2: You mentioned or we were talking about Jake Myers, we're

3252
02:26:55,120 --> 02:26:58,000
talking about the outfield earlier. It's funny to me, it

3253
02:26:58,120 --> 02:26:59,920
was all off season it just seemed to the same

3254
02:27:00,120 --> 02:27:03,479
reality that he was going to be traded away. And

3255
02:27:03,479 --> 02:27:05,479
then of course on the estoc paratus. Thing I mean

3256
02:27:05,600 --> 02:27:08,360
is that are we just assuming that neither or either

3257
02:27:08,399 --> 02:27:10,479
of those trades are just not going to be made.

3258
02:27:12,120 --> 02:27:14,399
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean I thought all off season that Myers

3259
02:27:14,399 --> 02:27:16,360
would get traded and I wrote that several times.

3260
02:27:16,360 --> 02:27:18,399
Speaker 8: I mean, I wasn't guessing. I'm telling you know, these

3261
02:27:18,399 --> 02:27:20,559
are things I was being told. I mean, they obviously

3262
02:27:20,559 --> 02:27:22,920
were shipping him around. It didn't happen.

3263
02:27:23,520 --> 02:27:26,120
Speaker 12: You know, obviously they've tried to trade Perettis this spring

3264
02:27:26,159 --> 02:27:28,760
as well. You know, the chances I keep getting told

3265
02:27:28,840 --> 02:27:32,360
are slim. Is just there's just a fine margin with

3266
02:27:32,000 --> 02:27:35,680
what the Astros want in return. So yeah, I mean,

3267
02:27:35,879 --> 02:27:37,959
it looks like, unless something happen, we're a week from

3268
02:27:38,000 --> 02:27:40,280
opening Day. But this next week, like I said, it

3269
02:27:40,360 --> 02:27:43,159
is going to be rosters are going to be changing

3270
02:27:43,200 --> 02:27:43,879
here left and right.

3271
02:27:43,959 --> 02:27:45,559
Speaker 8: Some guys are going to get cut from teams.

3272
02:27:46,079 --> 02:27:49,479
Speaker 12: Some teams are going to get desperate, you know, maybe

3273
02:27:49,520 --> 02:27:52,120
somebody needs a center fielder and wants to make a

3274
02:27:52,120 --> 02:27:55,760
deal with the Astros, or or maybe the Red Sox say, hey,

3275
02:27:55,760 --> 02:27:58,200
we would like Cretis after all, so maybe they can

3276
02:27:58,239 --> 02:28:01,079
make a deal. So I was more likely than not,

3277
02:28:01,239 --> 02:28:03,040
just because where we're at in the calendar that both

3278
02:28:03,079 --> 02:28:05,520
Myers and Fretis are on the opening day roster. But

3279
02:28:06,559 --> 02:28:08,280
some things could happen here in the next few days.

3280
02:28:08,280 --> 02:28:10,719
They could with other teams that could force the Astros

3281
02:28:10,760 --> 02:28:13,600
maybe to make a deal and change their roster up

3282
02:28:13,600 --> 02:28:14,319
a little bit as well.

3283
02:28:14,479 --> 02:28:17,680
Speaker 2: That again, Brian McTaggart and real quick roster are gonna break.

3284
02:28:18,280 --> 02:28:22,719
If we just heard Tag say this, it sounded like

3285
02:28:22,840 --> 02:28:25,280
to me he thinks that there could be something happening

3286
02:28:25,280 --> 02:28:27,559
the next handful of days. I wonder if that is

3287
02:28:28,280 --> 02:28:31,000
something that's on the cusp and that they're waiting to

3288
02:28:31,000 --> 02:28:32,840
figure out. Jeremy Pene, you can open up the year

3289
02:28:32,959 --> 02:28:35,079
or do you hold back on something like that until

3290
02:28:35,120 --> 02:28:36,000
you know exactly.

3291
02:28:35,680 --> 02:28:44,840
Speaker 3: When Jeremy pen is coming back. Y very interesting, good

3292
02:28:44,959 --> 02:28:45,760
guy has to happen.

3293
02:28:46,920 --> 02:28:49,520
Speaker 2: I think Joe a Spotted goes into Dana's office every

3294
02:28:49,559 --> 02:28:51,120
day and says, you got to do something.

3295
02:28:51,440 --> 02:28:52,520
Speaker 3: I'm sure they've been trying to.

3296
02:28:52,639 --> 02:28:55,000
Speaker 2: But Dane also wants to get fair value, and he

3297
02:28:55,079 --> 02:28:56,959
knows teams around the other teams know that aren't going

3298
02:28:57,040 --> 02:28:57,479
ready to do it.

3299
02:28:58,200 --> 02:28:58,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right.

02:28:59,040 --> 02:29:01,639
