00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:26.040
<v Speaker 1>Man?

100
00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:30.560
<v Speaker 2>There were very many, right, that's not a lot of

101
00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:33.959
<v Speaker 2>big ups It was kind of like Cinderella's Little Chalky.

102
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:37.720
<v Speaker 2>I thought that Colorado State had had a huge game

103
00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:40.720
<v Speaker 2>with Maryland and and and lost. It was that was

104
00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:43.639
<v Speaker 2>a yeah, well, I tell you, I love that coach

105
00:05:43.680 --> 00:05:46.279
<v Speaker 2>talking about It's like going, yeah, we're not you know,

106
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:49.680
<v Speaker 2>we're here, We're real. Yeah, no, no, we're real. But

107
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:53.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna go we are so real. I'm going somewhere

108
00:05:53.360 --> 00:05:57.399
<v Speaker 2>else exactly right, right, And you know it's who off

109
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:00.519
<v Speaker 2>the top of my hand, ray I, I don't have

110
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:05.519
<v Speaker 2>to help me with this, Yeah, yeah, because you know

111
00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:10.120
<v Speaker 2>what pull disclosure. In fact, I rarely bet these games anymore,

112
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:12.560
<v Speaker 2>but I did put some money down on Saint John's

113
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:14.600
<v Speaker 2>because I thought Saint John's would kick the crap out

114
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.000
<v Speaker 2>of Arkansas. And it was just a bad matchup. It

115
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:19.519
<v Speaker 2>was just a bed because Arkansas was too big toot

116
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:22.079
<v Speaker 2>and they finally showed up the play game. You know,

117
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:23.959
<v Speaker 2>the one thing that I wanted to talk about, you guys,

118
00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:26.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Two years ago, there was a big

119
00:06:26.800 --> 00:06:31.120
<v Speaker 2>story and a big bruja about the basketballs. Right there

120
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:32.800
<v Speaker 2>are different color? Have you seen? Have you noticed that?

121
00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:36.040
<v Speaker 2>Have you noticed the basketballs? I remember that? And the

122
00:06:36.639 --> 00:06:39.279
<v Speaker 2>same thing this year? Have you you haven't noticed? So

123
00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:41.439
<v Speaker 2>last year time he brought it up at the tournament,

124
00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:45.560
<v Speaker 2>he brought it up that he talked about being different.

125
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:49.120
<v Speaker 2>There's the same this year. And I watched every game

126
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:52.639
<v Speaker 2>and it's notice how they can't handle the ball, and

127
00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:55.560
<v Speaker 2>notice the free throws are missing. Notice the free throws

128
00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:58.199
<v Speaker 2>were missing, and how they bounce off the rims and

129
00:06:58.199 --> 00:07:01.519
<v Speaker 2>and notice just the bouncing it. The thing is nobody's

130
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:03.920
<v Speaker 2>written about it, and it's the same ball. To me,

131
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:06.399
<v Speaker 2>I would bet my life it's the same ball and

132
00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:09.160
<v Speaker 2>they're having a hard time controlling it and it's a

133
00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:11.920
<v Speaker 2>sponsoraball because they give a ton of money to the

134
00:07:12.759 --> 00:07:14.879
<v Speaker 2>If you google it, you'll find from the last a

135
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:17.120
<v Speaker 2>couple of years ago, there just hasn't been a story

136
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:18.920
<v Speaker 2>about it. I'm gonna ask Tommy about it. It's a

137
00:07:18.959 --> 00:07:23.360
<v Speaker 2>stupid question because it doesn't really matter now. But if

138
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:27.879
<v Speaker 2>you notice that ball, Yeah, so the response back is that, oh,

139
00:07:27.959 --> 00:07:30.560
<v Speaker 2>we both played the same ball. Sure, but that's not

140
00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:33.120
<v Speaker 2>the case. No, no, but both the both teams are

141
00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:36.600
<v Speaker 2>struggling with differently. Yeah, they played different The teams play differently,

142
00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:39.000
<v Speaker 2>and uh and they and they and they both are

143
00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:40.680
<v Speaker 2>struggling with the ball. If you know, if you go

144
00:07:40.759 --> 00:07:43.639
<v Speaker 2>back and you watch some games kind of just out

145
00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:46.199
<v Speaker 2>of curiosity, watch how that ball balances. It's just really

146
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:50.800
<v Speaker 2>strange to me. Yeah. Interesting. Yeah, I saw I think

147
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:53.000
<v Speaker 2>Tennessee guy at the airport.

148
00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:55.920
<v Speaker 3>There was like a sound bite, oh like an official

149
00:07:56.000 --> 00:07:58.839
<v Speaker 3>sound bite, but he said the the air pressure is

150
00:07:58.959 --> 00:07:59.879
<v Speaker 3>like a bit more inflated.

151
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:03.079
<v Speaker 2>So he actually said that, he said over the weekend. Yeah.

152
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:04.720
<v Speaker 3>I think someone just like asked them about it at

153
00:08:04.720 --> 00:08:06.319
<v Speaker 3>the airport or something like that, and it just like

154
00:08:06.399 --> 00:08:07.879
<v Speaker 3>happened to like someone got.

155
00:08:07.800 --> 00:08:10.560
<v Speaker 2>A clip of it, right, Yeah, okay, because it's to me,

156
00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:12.360
<v Speaker 2>it's it's the same problem that was two years ago,

157
00:08:12.439 --> 00:08:14.720
<v Speaker 2>same problem that Timmy brought up last year. And then

158
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:17.800
<v Speaker 2>there was a story if you google the ball, they're

159
00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:19.879
<v Speaker 2>getting a ton of money for the use of that ball,

160
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:22.160
<v Speaker 2>but they don't play with it during the year, which

161
00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:24.879
<v Speaker 2>makes no sense. Yeah, right, exactly why would they. It'll

162
00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:26.560
<v Speaker 2>bout now they'd be used to it. But even then,

163
00:08:26.920 --> 00:08:28.759
<v Speaker 2>if you watch the games and watch some of the replays,

164
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:31.240
<v Speaker 2>you can kind of say, that's interesting. The balls bouncing

165
00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:33.840
<v Speaker 2>kind of strange and they're mishandling it a lot.

166
00:08:34.039 --> 00:08:35.919
<v Speaker 3>It kind of reminds me of how there's always a

167
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:38.440
<v Speaker 3>special ball for the World Cup, and especially it reminds

168
00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:40.480
<v Speaker 3>me of the twenty ten in South America.

169
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:42.279
<v Speaker 2>Do they do that too, Yeah, they make us They

170
00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:44.480
<v Speaker 2>make a different ball every year. And how was that different?

171
00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:46.000
<v Speaker 2>The twenty ten one?

172
00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:48.600
<v Speaker 3>It had like a knuckle, more of a knuckle effect

173
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:51.399
<v Speaker 3>kind of than like most of some other soccer ball.

174
00:08:51.519 --> 00:08:54.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and so there was I mean, there was greaty.

175
00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:55.600
<v Speaker 3>If you go back and watch some of those goals,

176
00:08:55.639 --> 00:08:57.320
<v Speaker 3>I mean you just look at them and you're like, man,

177
00:08:57.399 --> 00:08:57.960
<v Speaker 3>that's insane.

178
00:08:58.240 --> 00:08:58.440
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

179
00:09:00.440 --> 00:09:03.840
<v Speaker 3>Other big college basketball news in town. Jada Williams put

180
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:05.440

183
00:09:12.120 --> 00:09:15.039
<v Speaker 2>that's an interesting thing though. The transfer portal opened up

184
00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:16.919
<v Speaker 2>right in the middle of the tournament. Yeah. So you've

185

<v Speaker 2>You and Billy Joel. Hey, if Billy Joe can do it,

208
00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:35.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean, all these guys are coming from from somewhere

209
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:38.799
<v Speaker 2>else on the transport. But I want to go back

210
00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:42.080
<v Speaker 2>to the fact that the deal I was I was

211
00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:45.279
<v Speaker 2>reading something about the transportal. They they you can't really

212
00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:49.279
<v Speaker 2>push it to the end of March madness because schools

213
00:10:49.320 --> 00:10:51.559
<v Speaker 2>have to and I know this is crazy, but there

214
00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:55.080
<v Speaker 2>they have to accept them for academics, which which I

215
00:10:55.159 --> 00:10:59.519
<v Speaker 2>know it's like academics. Who's talking academics? Okay, but they

216
00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:02.720
<v Speaker 2>have to up him into the school and the acceptances

217
00:11:02.799 --> 00:11:05.480
<v Speaker 2>are going out now in all this talk of nil

218
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:10.039
<v Speaker 2>and in athletics, how many times you hear the word academics? Yeah? No,

219
00:11:10.960 --> 00:11:13.559
<v Speaker 2>I mean today today you said you saw what you

220
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:15.799
<v Speaker 2>did today? I'm sure. All how many classes you have?

221
00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:20.039
<v Speaker 2>I got six? Six? How many of them are online? Two?

222
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:25.600
<v Speaker 2>And right? Kind of same five and three are online online.

223
00:11:25.639 --> 00:11:31.039
<v Speaker 2>So nowadays the team went from Seattle Junior Jersey today. Yeah. Right,

224
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:34.840
<v Speaker 2>so if they had class today, they didn't class. Yeah,

225
00:11:35.720 --> 00:11:38.120
<v Speaker 2>not taking an under And I'm not criticizing eight because

226
00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:39.799
<v Speaker 2>that's just the way the life is. Yeah, I mean

227
00:11:40.200 --> 00:11:41.559
<v Speaker 2>it's been that way. Yeah, it's been that way. And

228
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:43.799
<v Speaker 2>that's been that way from class. I mean, guys who

229
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:46.519
<v Speaker 2>are going to commit to the NBA, they don't register

230
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:49.960
<v Speaker 2>for the second semester. No, yeah, it was Shirkurs Sanders said,

231
00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:52.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's like going he didn't go to any classes. Okay,

232
00:11:53.440 --> 00:11:56.000
<v Speaker 2>you know some of these guys are not not in

233
00:11:56.080 --> 00:11:58.480
<v Speaker 2>school for school. Okay, but it's been that way the

234
00:11:58.559 --> 00:11:59.000
<v Speaker 2>whole time.

235
00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:03.200
<v Speaker 4>It's funny you mentioned that one of the seven week classes.

236
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:07.240
<v Speaker 4>I just started last week and with Trade Townsend, and

237
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:10.559
<v Speaker 4>I did a week week's worth of homework.

238
00:12:10.159 --> 00:12:11.399
<v Speaker 2>And stuff last night.

239
00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:16.159
<v Speaker 4>So it's it is beneficial when you can put it

240
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:18.159
<v Speaker 4>to where you're if it's in your schedule.

241
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:20.399
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, it's it's a self paced, right, self pace.

242
00:12:21.159 --> 00:12:23.120
<v Speaker 2>I did that. I did that forty years ago when

243
00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:25.440
<v Speaker 2>I was in school, and I probably did it incorrectly,

244
00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:27.840
<v Speaker 2>but I did it because you know I could, I

245
00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:31.120
<v Speaker 2>could knock this up in the final week of school. Yeah,

246
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:33.840
<v Speaker 2>get it all taken care of. Well, that's they shooting.

247
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:35.440
<v Speaker 2>Didn't recognize me when I went to classes.

248
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:35.759
<v Speaker 5>You're in.

249
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:39.919
<v Speaker 2>No doubt about it. Yeah, kind of piggybacking off that.

250
00:12:40.279 --> 00:12:43.320
<v Speaker 3>I remember last year I had I had a class

251
00:12:43.320 --> 00:12:46.200
<v Speaker 3>with Bassar actually like before he started or anything, and

252
00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:49.080
<v Speaker 3>it was a cool guy. Never really talked too much.

253
00:12:49.279 --> 00:12:52.000
<v Speaker 3>I always kicked my stands, you know, seven feet you

254
00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:53.679
<v Speaker 3>know you need you need some legspace down.

255
00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:56.360
<v Speaker 2>So I ain't mad about it. Herd to fit in

256
00:12:56.399 --> 00:12:59.000
<v Speaker 2>the chairs. So so I get a text from out here.

257
00:12:59.279 --> 00:13:02.120
<v Speaker 2>He is not an ah she reject. He rejected the issue,

258
00:13:02.200 --> 00:13:04.720
<v Speaker 2>but he is probably going to try the NBA we're

259
00:13:04.720 --> 00:13:07.519
<v Speaker 2>talking about. So so yeah, yeah, not an and not

260
00:13:07.639 --> 00:13:10.360
<v Speaker 2>an assue reject. Just he wants to leave. I mean,

261
00:13:10.559 --> 00:13:13.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure that if he wanted to come here, Arizona

262
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:15.759
<v Speaker 2>would welcome him. I don't know the situation, but but

263
00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:18.240
<v Speaker 2>the threat that I saw, do they want to this

264
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:22.679
<v Speaker 2>Arizona wan to get his reject And to Huger's point,

265
00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:28.799
<v Speaker 2>he's exactly right fit fiteah location location location, absolutely, I

266
00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:31.159
<v Speaker 2>mean he was like a five stars coming. Yeah he was, Yeah, yeah,

267
00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:33.080
<v Speaker 2>he was the perfect dude to come in every place,

268
00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:37.519
<v Speaker 2>you know, and everybody in November December saying Ketlum should

269
00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:40.440
<v Speaker 2>have left, We should have got this guy, you know. Oh,

270
00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:42.360
<v Speaker 2>let me ask you to we'll talk about this with

271
00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:46.759
<v Speaker 2>with with with Brian, but let me ask you Okay, So,

272
00:13:47.200 --> 00:13:49.240
<v Speaker 2>isn't Arizona supposed to be where they're supposed to be?

273
00:13:49.559 --> 00:13:52.399
<v Speaker 2>They're a good program. Uh, they started the season tenth

274
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:54.600
<v Speaker 2>that tenth, I think it was maybe eleventh during the

275
00:13:54.639 --> 00:13:57.559
<v Speaker 2>Sweet sixteen. Isn't this where they're supposed to be? Yeah,

276
00:13:58.159 --> 00:14:01.320
<v Speaker 2>anything less would have been what well, I think I

277
00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:03.399
<v Speaker 2>think anything less would have been a big disappointment for

278
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:06.840
<v Speaker 2>the for the seam. So now, but well, anything else

279
00:14:06.960 --> 00:14:10.240
<v Speaker 2>is gravy, you know. I mean, look, look, we go

280
00:14:10.320 --> 00:14:13.360
<v Speaker 2>out there and we beat Duke. It is we've got

281
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:15.960
<v Speaker 2>to be living on cloud din. We are playing beyond

282
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:18.759
<v Speaker 2>or beyond what we had. But also before we go

290
00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:43.279
<v Speaker 2>now before the discussion for the final four?

291

401

<v Speaker 4>I get the opportunity and the once in a lifetime

405
00:20:27.960 --> 00:20:30.559
<v Speaker 4>opportunity to ask the first question for the guests.

406
00:20:31.880 --> 00:20:32.400
<v Speaker 2>I could ask.

407
00:20:32.759 --> 00:20:34.960
<v Speaker 4>You know, we saw a little bit of an interaction

408
00:20:35.079 --> 00:20:38.319
<v Speaker 4>between the Azy Desert Swarm gang and Caleb Love when

409
00:20:38.359 --> 00:20:40.400
<v Speaker 4>he came went crashing into the media section. I got

410
00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:42.880
<v Speaker 4>to make sure you're okay and are you doing it

411
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:43.200
<v Speaker 4>all right?

412
00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:45.400
<v Speaker 12>Yeah?

413
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:47.960
<v Speaker 5>It wasn't the first time my life flashed in front

414
00:20:47.960 --> 00:20:51.160
<v Speaker 5>of my eyes court side at a game. But I

415
00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:53.160
<v Speaker 5>was more worried about him that he kind of slid

416
00:20:53.240 --> 00:20:55.039
<v Speaker 5>really hard into the side of it like that it

417
00:20:55.079 --> 00:20:57.880
<v Speaker 5>could have bruised his hip. But I think Caleb loves

418
00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:01.279
<v Speaker 5>one of those players that wears the the padded shorts

419
00:21:01.359 --> 00:21:04.000
<v Speaker 5>underneath his game shorts. So I'm sure he was fine,

420
00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:06.079
<v Speaker 5>and I mean he showed he was fine after that.

421
00:21:06.400 --> 00:21:09.400
<v Speaker 2>So let's get to some questions here real quick. And

422
00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:12.000
<v Speaker 2>we've been talking about this every now and again, and

423
00:21:12.200 --> 00:21:16.400
<v Speaker 2>Corey explained his thought on what happened. But why wasn't

424
00:21:16.440 --> 00:21:18.279
<v Speaker 2>the question or maybe he was asked on the side

425
00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:21.720
<v Speaker 2>to Tommy why Owaka wasn't in a game late?

426
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:27.359
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it didn't get asked. I'm just assuming that he

427
00:21:27.759 --> 00:21:33.519
<v Speaker 5>felt that the defensive approach with the other guys against

428
00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:36.839
<v Speaker 5>Biddle was better than Owaka, that Owaka was going to

429
00:21:36.920 --> 00:21:39.519
<v Speaker 5>get that fifth foul. I mean, I guess at some

430
00:21:39.599 --> 00:21:41.799
<v Speaker 5>point you have to put those guys at risk because

431
00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:44.559
<v Speaker 5>you don't want them sitting on the bench with fouls

432
00:21:44.640 --> 00:21:45.200
<v Speaker 5>to give.

433
00:21:45.400 --> 00:21:48.400
<v Speaker 2>So to speak. But I guess it.

434
00:21:48.599 --> 00:21:51.119
<v Speaker 5>I mean, usually when Tommy is asked about that stuff,

435
00:21:51.160 --> 00:21:54.240
<v Speaker 5>he just mentions something about the guys we had out

436
00:21:54.279 --> 00:21:57.200
<v Speaker 5>there worked force. But there was something that started to

437
00:21:57.240 --> 00:22:01.160
<v Speaker 5>go on after that where they were put Ouaka in

438
00:22:01.279 --> 00:22:05.079
<v Speaker 5>there for when there was free throws to get the

439
00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:09.039
<v Speaker 5>rebounds and also having gal orso to to foul. But

440
00:22:09.200 --> 00:22:11.319
<v Speaker 5>before that, yes, he wasn't out there, and I think

441
00:22:11.920 --> 00:22:13.680
<v Speaker 5>it did contribute a little bit, but I don't think.

442
00:22:13.720 --> 00:22:15.200
<v Speaker 5>I mean, they were doing well on the boards even

443
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:16.240
<v Speaker 5>when he wasn't in there.

444
00:22:16.440 --> 00:22:18.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so I was just a question. Corey explained it

445
00:22:19.000 --> 00:22:22.119
<v Speaker 2>offensive that it was more about offense because because of

446
00:22:22.200 --> 00:22:26.599
<v Speaker 2>the Caleb love able to rub off on on Henry.

447
00:22:26.839 --> 00:22:30.440
<v Speaker 2>The he explained that way he doesn't ye, he said.

448
00:22:30.680 --> 00:22:33.119
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, I mean Henry Henry space is the floor

449
00:22:33.200 --> 00:22:36.200
<v Speaker 5>better and and Caleb has has really been able to

450
00:22:36.640 --> 00:22:39.160
<v Speaker 5>create a good connection with him on give and goes

451
00:22:39.200 --> 00:22:42.160
<v Speaker 5>and whatnot and and o waka. It's constantly has been

452
00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:43.799
<v Speaker 5>referred to the season as kind of a below the

453
00:22:43.839 --> 00:22:46.119
<v Speaker 5>basket player. You don't run your offense through him. There's

454
00:22:46.160 --> 00:22:49.119
<v Speaker 5>no high lows. His scoring is almost always going to

455
00:22:49.160 --> 00:22:53.160
<v Speaker 5>be off putbacks, and as valuable as those were, uh,

456
00:22:53.319 --> 00:22:56.400
<v Speaker 5>it's also risky that you get that fifth foul trying

457
00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:59.279
<v Speaker 5>to go up for a rebound and on the offense,

458
00:22:59.319 --> 00:23:00.880
<v Speaker 5>and then you don't want to kill a possession in

459
00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:01.480
<v Speaker 5>that respect.

460
00:23:01.720 --> 00:23:03.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, okay, I guess YEA. That was so nice. You

461
00:23:03.519 --> 00:23:04.400
<v Speaker 2>stayed there a little longer.

462
00:23:06.279 --> 00:23:10.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I'm still here I'm heading back tonight. I had

463
00:23:10.079 --> 00:23:15.079
<v Speaker 5>been considering going to New Jersey, but life happens, and

464
00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:18.440
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to come back to Arizona and follow that

465
00:23:18.559 --> 00:23:21.599
<v Speaker 5>game remotely. And yeah, if they go to the Elite eight,

466
00:23:21.680 --> 00:23:24.440
<v Speaker 5>same but if they go to the Final fours, that's

467
00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:26.599
<v Speaker 5>an easy drive, Steve, we can do another road trip.

468
00:23:27.079 --> 00:23:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Well aware, I'm getting ready. I'm getting ready. If that happens.

469
00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:32.640
<v Speaker 2>We'll see what happens. Is twenty fourteen hours. So Bucky's

470
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:35.880
<v Speaker 2>here we come. So what do you think? I mean,

471
00:23:36.319 --> 00:23:39.599
<v Speaker 2>what did you think about the game itself? Very strange

472
00:23:39.799 --> 00:23:41.519
<v Speaker 2>when it started and the way you finished.

473
00:23:43.200 --> 00:23:47.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Oregon played a really great start to that game.

474
00:23:47.839 --> 00:23:51.720
<v Speaker 5>They were hitting shots, and they weren't necessarily wide open shots,

475
00:23:51.720 --> 00:23:54.880
<v Speaker 5>they were just hitting the shots. Arizona had a couple turnovers,

476
00:23:55.559 --> 00:23:58.559
<v Speaker 5>three really early that led to seven points. It's just

477
00:23:58.680 --> 00:24:01.440
<v Speaker 5>kind of one of those nothing could go right situations.

478
00:24:01.519 --> 00:24:04.000
<v Speaker 5>But as has been the case so many times with

479
00:24:04.400 --> 00:24:07.039
<v Speaker 5>Tommy Lloyd teams, he doesn't call that quick time out

480
00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:10.200
<v Speaker 5>to stop the momentum. He doesn't lay into the team.

481
00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:13.480
<v Speaker 5>He's just kind of like, all right, well now we've

482
00:24:13.480 --> 00:24:15.839
<v Speaker 5>built the hole, so now the goal is to not

483
00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:19.880
<v Speaker 5>let it get worse, just try to chip away with it.

484
00:24:20.200 --> 00:24:22.920
<v Speaker 5>And it took them ten minutes and one second from

485
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:25.400
<v Speaker 5>when they were down fifteen to take the lead. So

486
00:24:26.720 --> 00:24:29.640
<v Speaker 5>he clearly wasn't worried, and neither were any of the players.

487
00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:32.279
<v Speaker 5>And he had said kind of after the game that

488
00:24:32.440 --> 00:24:34.759
<v Speaker 5>he's been involved in games like that so often, but

489
00:24:34.839 --> 00:24:37.440
<v Speaker 5>usually on the other end, that you know, the other team,

490
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:39.960
<v Speaker 5>if they're good, is going to make a comeback. So

491
00:24:40.640 --> 00:24:43.319
<v Speaker 5>he went with this approach of he wanted Oregon to

492
00:24:43.400 --> 00:24:45.119
<v Speaker 5>be like, wait, why aren't they calling time out?

493
00:24:45.200 --> 00:24:45.519
<v Speaker 2>What are they?

494
00:24:45.599 --> 00:24:45.720
<v Speaker 15>Oh?

495
00:24:45.799 --> 00:24:48.400
<v Speaker 5>Wait, they know they're coming back, and let's let's get

496
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:51.000
<v Speaker 5>them stressed a little bit. And I mean, Arizona was

497
00:24:51.079 --> 00:24:53.680
<v Speaker 5>up by six in the first half after being down

498
00:24:53.720 --> 00:24:57.200
<v Speaker 5>by twenty one, okay, or down by fifteenth season.

499
00:24:57.920 --> 00:25:00.480
<v Speaker 2>You don't let me ask you, let me let me

500
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:03.079
<v Speaker 2>jump on that. Why didn't they just why didn't they

501
00:25:03.119 --> 00:25:04.039
<v Speaker 2>maintain that momentum?

502
00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:04.240
<v Speaker 5>Then?

503
00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:06.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that's the thing, you know, that's the thing.

504
00:25:06.319 --> 00:25:07.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's just kind of like we kind of

505
00:25:08.279 --> 00:25:10.359
<v Speaker 2>threw it back into third gear the same light. That's

506
00:25:10.440 --> 00:25:11.000
<v Speaker 2>not what they do.

507
00:25:12.799 --> 00:25:13.839
<v Speaker 5>I know, that's not what they do.

508
00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:14.880
<v Speaker 2>Why don't they do that?

509
00:25:16.640 --> 00:25:21.000
<v Speaker 5>It works both it works both ways. Oregon was a

510
00:25:21.039 --> 00:25:24.039
<v Speaker 5>good team. Arizona got up by eleven, and then Oregon

511
00:25:24.160 --> 00:25:28.160
<v Speaker 5>started playing with a little bit more of that intensity

512
00:25:28.240 --> 00:25:30.559
<v Speaker 5>that we have to do something or this game is

513
00:25:30.559 --> 00:25:32.920
<v Speaker 5>going to get away from us. And yes, Arizona, it

514
00:25:33.319 --> 00:25:36.200
<v Speaker 5>does let teams back into it. They don't really put

515
00:25:36.240 --> 00:25:38.279
<v Speaker 5>their foot on the gap. They started to make a

516
00:25:38.319 --> 00:25:41.680
<v Speaker 5>couple of mistakes, but they never gave up the lead.

517
00:25:41.920 --> 00:25:45.960
<v Speaker 5>And I think there's there's a difference between turning a

518
00:25:47.119 --> 00:25:49.119
<v Speaker 5>twenty of ten to twelve point lead because they got

519
00:25:49.119 --> 00:25:52.920
<v Speaker 5>to eleven into a one score game or or giving

520
00:25:53.000 --> 00:25:55.160
<v Speaker 5>up the lead. Those are two very different things. As

521
00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:58.200
<v Speaker 5>long as they were staying in front, and they started

522
00:25:58.240 --> 00:26:01.799
<v Speaker 5>to have that answer. Every time Orgon got within like four,

523
00:26:02.000 --> 00:26:06.480
<v Speaker 5>Caleb hits a three, Oregon gets within three, they make

524
00:26:06.960 --> 00:26:09.759
<v Speaker 5>a putback, or they get the free throws. They kept answering.

525
00:26:09.799 --> 00:26:12.599
<v Speaker 5>They didn't have the collection. They only had one period

526
00:26:12.720 --> 00:26:15.079
<v Speaker 5>in the second half where they went more than two

527
00:26:15.119 --> 00:26:18.519
<v Speaker 5>minutes without scoring. So you do have to give credit

528
00:26:18.599 --> 00:26:21.160
<v Speaker 5>to the other team for kind of getting that sense

529
00:26:21.200 --> 00:26:24.079
<v Speaker 5>of urgency and doing something and you're not going to

530
00:26:24.119 --> 00:26:26.880
<v Speaker 5>stop them. Every single time. They weren't making a lot

531
00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:29.200
<v Speaker 5>of their own mistakes. It was just a matter of Oregon,

532
00:26:29.359 --> 00:26:32.680
<v Speaker 5>I think, just really starting to push it because they

533
00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:34.160
<v Speaker 5>knew this was the only way they could get back

534
00:26:34.200 --> 00:26:34.599
<v Speaker 5>into the game.

535
00:26:35.160 --> 00:26:37.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm assuming you were in the room when this question

536
00:26:37.319 --> 00:26:41.480
<v Speaker 2>was asked to Tommy on Saturday. His final question actually

537
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:44.359
<v Speaker 2>Michelle from The Athletic to ask him, probably didn't word

538
00:26:44.359 --> 00:26:47.599
<v Speaker 2>it right or well in terms of with Henry, were

539
00:26:47.640 --> 00:26:48.319
<v Speaker 2>you in the room.

540
00:26:49.720 --> 00:26:53.359
<v Speaker 5>I was not. I had some vehicle trouble, so I

541
00:26:53.480 --> 00:26:56.640
<v Speaker 5>missed the press conferences that day. But watching the video

542
00:26:56.759 --> 00:27:00.799
<v Speaker 5>of it and hearing about it beforehand, it's the kind

543
00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:05.720
<v Speaker 5>of question that I think you're probably better off asking yes,

544
00:27:05.839 --> 00:27:08.880
<v Speaker 5>no question, no question, because that way, first off, you're

545
00:27:08.920 --> 00:27:14.039
<v Speaker 5>going to get a more honest answer, and secondly, if

546
00:27:14.079 --> 00:27:17.680
<v Speaker 5>it does elicit the kind of reaction that it did

547
00:27:17.759 --> 00:27:20.920
<v Speaker 5>from Tommy, you're not putting anybody.

548
00:27:20.599 --> 00:27:21.200
<v Speaker 2>On the spot.

549
00:27:21.279 --> 00:27:24.240
<v Speaker 5>And I mean, I give him credit for not blowing

550
00:27:24.359 --> 00:27:25.720
<v Speaker 5>up when he could have. And I know there's a

551
00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:29.200
<v Speaker 5>lot of other coaches that probably would have, especially yeah,

552
00:27:29.319 --> 00:27:32.880
<v Speaker 5>like particularly Dan Hurley with his hating the national media

553
00:27:32.960 --> 00:27:35.400
<v Speaker 5>type stuff right now, he probably would have laid into

554
00:27:35.440 --> 00:27:37.519
<v Speaker 5>her on that, which is not really what you do.

555
00:27:37.759 --> 00:27:40.319
<v Speaker 5>He's just like, no, that's not what I'm doing, and

556
00:27:40.920 --> 00:27:44.000
<v Speaker 5>it's it was a bit of a ridiculous question because

557
00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:46.400
<v Speaker 5>he's clearly not hiding him. I mean he's just playing

558
00:27:46.440 --> 00:27:49.920
<v Speaker 5>him as part of the rotation. And you know, when

559
00:27:49.920 --> 00:27:52.240
<v Speaker 5>they've got two different bigs that they're using in a

560
00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:56.279
<v Speaker 5>rotation along with other players, I mean other than the

561
00:27:56.400 --> 00:27:59.079
<v Speaker 5>two guards of Love and Bradley, no one plays over

562
00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:01.200
<v Speaker 5>thirty minutes, just how the rotation works.

563
00:28:01.400 --> 00:28:05.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I was going to say, outside of anybody not

564
00:28:05.240 --> 00:28:09.200
<v Speaker 2>named Caleb, who would you say is the second best

565
00:28:09.640 --> 00:28:17.000
<v Speaker 2>player playing right now? Because I asked by mine Mine's

566
00:28:17.039 --> 00:28:26.079
<v Speaker 2>k well, okay, Theresa. I was going to say most important,

567
00:28:26.119 --> 00:28:29.319
<v Speaker 2>as opposed to the play the best unless they're the

568
00:28:29.400 --> 00:28:29.759
<v Speaker 2>same thing.

569
00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:34.519
<v Speaker 5>I mean, they need Bradley's consistency. What they need from

570
00:28:34.640 --> 00:28:38.880
<v Speaker 5>Lewis is to not make too many bad mistakes. He

571
00:28:38.920 --> 00:28:41.519
<v Speaker 5>didn't have any bad fouls in this game. He I mean,

572
00:28:41.599 --> 00:28:43.880
<v Speaker 5>he had the situation where he tried to dunk his

573
00:28:43.960 --> 00:28:46.200
<v Speaker 5>own put back by holding onto the rim and he

574
00:28:46.240 --> 00:28:48.240
<v Speaker 5>said afterwards he had no idea that that was a

575
00:28:48.279 --> 00:28:52.720
<v Speaker 5>technical hurry would not have done it. But I I've

576
00:28:52.839 --> 00:28:55.559
<v Speaker 5>kind of made the joking reference throughout the season that

577
00:28:55.640 --> 00:28:59.119
<v Speaker 5>he has one or two of those WTF turnovers every game,

578
00:28:59.160 --> 00:29:01.519
<v Speaker 5>and he didn't have that in this game, so I

579
00:29:01.599 --> 00:29:05.640
<v Speaker 5>guess it was It's one of those He a lot

580
00:29:05.680 --> 00:29:07.279
<v Speaker 5>of times he'll have a game where he makes three

581
00:29:07.359 --> 00:29:09.480
<v Speaker 5>or four or five like what are you doing plays,

582
00:29:09.559 --> 00:29:12.240
<v Speaker 5>but then also three, four or five really great plays

583
00:29:12.279 --> 00:29:14.680
<v Speaker 5>and it evens it out, And I guess I just

584
00:29:15.240 --> 00:29:17.759
<v Speaker 5>because he didn't have the what are you doing plays,

585
00:29:18.359 --> 00:29:21.720
<v Speaker 5>the good ones just kind of flowed with everything. And yes,

586
00:29:21.920 --> 00:29:26.400
<v Speaker 5>it was a very solid game for him, but he's

587
00:29:26.440 --> 00:29:30.720
<v Speaker 5>still the I just I think that he's got to

588
00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:33.960
<v Speaker 5>be very, very very selective with the taking the shots

589
00:29:34.000 --> 00:29:36.079
<v Speaker 5>from outside because it's just not his thing.

590
00:29:36.200 --> 00:29:37.920
<v Speaker 2>Totally agree with you, But he's hitting them. I mean

591
00:29:37.960 --> 00:29:39.079
<v Speaker 2>he's hitting shots now.

592
00:29:40.319 --> 00:29:43.480
<v Speaker 5>Yes, yes, but his shot is the one where he

593
00:29:43.720 --> 00:29:47.279
<v Speaker 5>catches it on the perimeter and immediately starts heading into

594
00:29:47.319 --> 00:29:50.839
<v Speaker 5>the paint and either gets to the rim and Ben

595
00:29:50.920 --> 00:29:53.759
<v Speaker 5>puts it in or get draws a foul, or just

596
00:29:53.920 --> 00:29:56.559
<v Speaker 5>pulled up for a nice mid range. Him and Bradley

597
00:29:56.599 --> 00:30:00.000
<v Speaker 5>the same. I just Bradley has just been so concerns

598
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:05.440
<v Speaker 5>that he he just whenever they seem to need a shot.

599
00:30:05.640 --> 00:30:07.400
<v Speaker 5>He just he dribbles in and he hits like a

600
00:30:07.440 --> 00:30:11.519
<v Speaker 5>ten footer and it kind of cools everything off, and

601
00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:15.160
<v Speaker 5>he doesn't have There's been some of those end up

602
00:30:15.200 --> 00:30:18.400
<v Speaker 5>game mistakes which you'll you'll remember because Okay, there was

603
00:30:18.400 --> 00:30:21.039
<v Speaker 5>a turnover on the last possession, but before that he

604
00:30:21.160 --> 00:30:24.839
<v Speaker 5>had been great, and I think it's unfair to rank

605
00:30:24.880 --> 00:30:27.519
<v Speaker 5>the game based on that last play because everything else

606
00:30:27.880 --> 00:30:29.599
<v Speaker 5>had been so good about him. I think if he

607
00:30:29.680 --> 00:30:31.880
<v Speaker 5>were to have a bad night, it would really throw

608
00:30:31.960 --> 00:30:34.240
<v Speaker 5>everything off, and it would cause Caleb to try to

609
00:30:34.319 --> 00:30:36.039
<v Speaker 5>do too much, and it would cause a lot of

610
00:30:36.079 --> 00:30:37.839
<v Speaker 5>other people to try to do too much. So that's

611
00:30:37.839 --> 00:30:40.240
<v Speaker 5>why I think he probably does fit more into the

612
00:30:40.279 --> 00:30:44.079
<v Speaker 5>more important player aspect of it, that he needs to

613
00:30:44.440 --> 00:30:45.799
<v Speaker 5>have that consistency throughout.

614
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:48.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think that. I mean, we want our way

615
00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:52.119
<v Speaker 2>back by those mid rage jump shots. We started going

616
00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:54.440
<v Speaker 2>back going to that, and that's when we started really

617
00:30:54.559 --> 00:30:56.279
<v Speaker 2>you know, we'd come down court. We did majoria and

618
00:30:56.319 --> 00:30:56.759
<v Speaker 2>jump shot.

619
00:30:57.920 --> 00:31:00.519
<v Speaker 5>But see here. And the thing is is that Arizona's

620
00:31:00.519 --> 00:31:03.680
<v Speaker 5>three point shooting has gotten so much better. The last

621
00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:07.720
<v Speaker 5>seven games, they're shooting like forty three percent and that

622
00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:11.720
<v Speaker 5>includes a five of eighteen against Houston during that stretch,

623
00:31:11.839 --> 00:31:14.440
<v Speaker 5>and they're not taking a lot of shots, they're just

624
00:31:14.519 --> 00:31:19.039
<v Speaker 5>taking good ones. I mean against Akron Love only took

625
00:31:19.200 --> 00:31:21.559
<v Speaker 5>four to three point attempts. This when he was was

626
00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:24.359
<v Speaker 5>he five for seven, but first half I think he

627
00:31:24.440 --> 00:31:26.559
<v Speaker 5>only took two three point attempts. It was a lot

628
00:31:26.640 --> 00:31:30.319
<v Speaker 5>of getting into the lane and they're trying to set

629
00:31:30.440 --> 00:31:32.480
<v Speaker 5>up those shots and make it so that the right

630
00:31:32.559 --> 00:31:37.640
<v Speaker 5>people are taking them and it's working out. Well, they're

631
00:31:37.680 --> 00:31:40.279
<v Speaker 5>all still taking shots, but they're taking them at the

632
00:31:40.400 --> 00:31:43.559
<v Speaker 5>right moments. Dell or So hit a couple that were important,

633
00:31:44.119 --> 00:31:48.160
<v Speaker 5>Bradley had one that was important. I mean, even vs

634
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:50.400
<v Speaker 5>are still taking the shot from the top of the key.

635
00:31:50.799 --> 00:31:54.400
<v Speaker 5>It does something to how an opponent has to guard

636
00:31:54.440 --> 00:31:56.799
<v Speaker 5>you because they know that that's there, whether it goes

637
00:31:56.839 --> 00:31:59.880
<v Speaker 5>in or not. And I think after so many games

638
00:32:00.119 --> 00:32:02.240
<v Speaker 5>year where it just looked like they didn't have an

639
00:32:02.279 --> 00:32:04.440
<v Speaker 5>idea of how to shoot from the perimeter, they have

640
00:32:04.599 --> 00:32:08.680
<v Speaker 5>figured it out. And it's coincided with Love now also

641
00:32:08.880 --> 00:32:11.759
<v Speaker 5>making more of his because he doesn't have to take

642
00:32:11.960 --> 00:32:12.640
<v Speaker 5>so many of them.

643
00:32:12.960 --> 00:32:16.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think that's that's a great, great insight because

644
00:32:16.720 --> 00:32:18.400
<v Speaker 2>you're right, I mean, they were taking a we were

645
00:32:18.440 --> 00:32:20.799
<v Speaker 2>taking a lot of what I call hero threes, where

646
00:32:20.799 --> 00:32:22.200
<v Speaker 2>it's like I just want to be the hero here.

647
00:32:22.519 --> 00:32:24.079
<v Speaker 2>I gets the ball and I want to I want

648
00:32:24.119 --> 00:32:26.599
<v Speaker 2>to be the three pointer right now. But we're taking

649
00:32:26.640 --> 00:32:29.240
<v Speaker 2>the three pointer when it's there, when when it's given

650
00:32:29.319 --> 00:32:30.240
<v Speaker 2>those and that's great.

651
00:32:30.519 --> 00:32:32.759
<v Speaker 5>The last seven games, Klea Love is twenty one of

652
00:32:32.839 --> 00:32:34.079
<v Speaker 5>forty three from three point.

653
00:32:34.039 --> 00:32:36.519
<v Speaker 2>Except just and that's exactly what you get from him,

654
00:32:36.519 --> 00:32:38.920
<v Speaker 2>and we need from him. I shouldn't so on your site.

655
00:32:39.240 --> 00:32:41.440
<v Speaker 2>You you're the dude that comes up with these crazy numbers,

656
00:32:41.480 --> 00:32:43.559
<v Speaker 2>which is great because I would like to see him,

657
00:32:43.680 --> 00:32:46.079
<v Speaker 2>But the odds of the odds are they're nine and

658
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:48.240
<v Speaker 2>a half point dogs, and you came up with all

659
00:32:48.279 --> 00:32:49.599
<v Speaker 2>these history stats.

660
00:32:49.640 --> 00:32:53.160
<v Speaker 5>Could you repeat, well, the nine and a half point

661
00:32:53.240 --> 00:32:56.400
<v Speaker 5>spread for this game against Duke is the same spread

662
00:32:56.519 --> 00:32:59.079
<v Speaker 5>that it closed that in twenty eleven for the three sixteen,

663
00:32:59.200 --> 00:33:01.920
<v Speaker 5>So it is it's kind of funny that it's that

664
00:33:02.119 --> 00:33:05.720
<v Speaker 5>same situation, and that was supposed to be a team

665
00:33:05.799 --> 00:33:10.680
<v Speaker 5>of destiny. Duke one out in the West Regional. That

666
00:33:10.839 --> 00:33:13.960
<v Speaker 5>was also the last time in the tournament that they

667
00:33:14.039 --> 00:33:18.319
<v Speaker 5>were an underdog all the way back then. It was

668
00:33:18.799 --> 00:33:22.720
<v Speaker 5>not that. No, the last time would have been Ohio

669
00:33:22.839 --> 00:33:25.480
<v Speaker 5>State in the Sweet sixteen and twenty thirteen, but this

670
00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:27.759
<v Speaker 5>was the biggest that they've been there. They haven't actually

671
00:33:27.880 --> 00:33:32.119
<v Speaker 5>been a dog, they just don't. They're usually not an

672
00:33:32.200 --> 00:33:35.240
<v Speaker 5>underdog in the postseason, but they've won a lot of

673
00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:37.920
<v Speaker 5>those games going back to like ninety six. I think

674
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:40.480
<v Speaker 5>they're like, yeah, six and five or something like that,

675
00:33:40.720 --> 00:33:43.359
<v Speaker 5>straight up right when an underdog.

676
00:33:43.480 --> 00:33:45.200
<v Speaker 2>And the reason I'd say that is because I've said

677
00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:47.680
<v Speaker 2>this a number of times recently, and you know this

678
00:33:47.720 --> 00:33:49.559
<v Speaker 2>because you've been around a long time and I covered

679
00:33:49.599 --> 00:33:52.759
<v Speaker 2>them for forever that anytime you tell Arizona they can't

680
00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:54.960
<v Speaker 2>do it, they play well. And when they're a dog,

681
00:33:55.079 --> 00:33:56.079
<v Speaker 2>they play really well.

682
00:33:57.960 --> 00:34:01.319
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. Well, and see now as opposed to the previous

683
00:34:01.400 --> 00:34:04.160
<v Speaker 5>three years when Arizona was a one and a two

684
00:34:04.279 --> 00:34:07.559
<v Speaker 5>seed and just getting to the Sweet sixteen wasn't good

685
00:34:07.640 --> 00:34:10.559
<v Speaker 5>enough because by seed alone, you're supposed to go further. Well,

686
00:34:10.639 --> 00:34:12.960
<v Speaker 5>they're supposed to lose this game. Duke is the one

687
00:34:13.039 --> 00:34:14.880
<v Speaker 5>that has the pressure on them. Duke is the one

688
00:34:14.920 --> 00:34:17.760
<v Speaker 5>that has the number one pick, has three first round picks.

689
00:34:18.159 --> 00:34:23.599
<v Speaker 5>They've lost one time since Thanksgiving, and they they've looked

690
00:34:23.719 --> 00:34:27.320
<v Speaker 5>pretty much unstoppable, just a straight wagon during all that time.

691
00:34:27.800 --> 00:34:30.639
<v Speaker 5>They're the ones that can't afford to have a bad

692
00:34:30.760 --> 00:34:33.840
<v Speaker 5>game because they're playing against a team that essentially is

693
00:34:33.880 --> 00:34:34.639
<v Speaker 5>on house money.

694
00:34:35.280 --> 00:34:38.239
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. You, so they have been on a role. They

695
00:34:38.280 --> 00:34:42.760
<v Speaker 2>have been winning their games, but they'ven't beaten the ACC.

696
00:34:44.039 --> 00:34:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Is there a.

697
00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:49.239
<v Speaker 5>I mean they haven't. They haven't had the best competition

698
00:34:49.360 --> 00:34:53.199
<v Speaker 5>in that conference. And I do think that that the

699
00:34:53.599 --> 00:34:56.320
<v Speaker 5>no they that was way early in the season that

700
00:34:56.400 --> 00:34:58.039
<v Speaker 5>I think they played that like their long.

701
00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:03.079
<v Speaker 2>Running through their schedule at thirty two and one, but

702
00:35:03.199 --> 00:35:05.000
<v Speaker 2>only beating up Saint Mary's.

703
00:35:05.920 --> 00:35:08.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, I mean there is something to be said

704
00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:11.440
<v Speaker 5>about that. There. It was that the ACC had three

705
00:35:11.559 --> 00:35:13.960
<v Speaker 5>or four good teams at the top, but then nothing

706
00:35:14.000 --> 00:35:16.880
<v Speaker 5>else whereas the Big Twelve, which is kind of like

707
00:35:16.920 --> 00:35:19.480
<v Speaker 5>how the Pac twelve was most years, where there were

708
00:35:19.519 --> 00:35:21.119
<v Speaker 5>a couple of good teams at the top, but then

709
00:35:21.199 --> 00:35:24.159
<v Speaker 5>after that you had to make sure that you kept

710
00:35:24.199 --> 00:35:27.159
<v Speaker 5>your focus or you would get picked off by somebody

711
00:35:27.480 --> 00:35:29.840
<v Speaker 5>who was treating it like a Super Bowl. And I

712
00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:33.719
<v Speaker 5>think that the Big Twelve has really helped. kJ Lewis

713
00:35:33.719 --> 00:35:36.840
<v Speaker 5>said something about that after the game when he was

714
00:35:36.880 --> 00:35:39.119
<v Speaker 5>asked if this game against Oregon felt like an old

715
00:35:39.199 --> 00:35:41.440
<v Speaker 5>Pac twelve game, and he said no, it didn't because

716
00:35:41.679 --> 00:35:44.440
<v Speaker 5>it felt more physical. And he thinks Arizona moving to

717
00:35:44.519 --> 00:35:46.519
<v Speaker 5>the Big twelve and Oregon moving to the Big ten

718
00:35:46.719 --> 00:35:48.840
<v Speaker 5>forced both of those teams to learn how to play

719
00:35:48.920 --> 00:35:51.920
<v Speaker 5>a different way. And if you think about it, when

720
00:35:51.960 --> 00:35:54.880
<v Speaker 5>Arizona played Duke the fourth game of the season, it

721
00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:57.480
<v Speaker 5>had yet to play a Big twelve game and hadn't

722
00:35:57.599 --> 00:36:00.239
<v Speaker 5>faced that. They also just had no idea what kind

723
00:36:00.280 --> 00:36:02.119
<v Speaker 5>of team they had at that point. That was the

724
00:36:02.199 --> 00:36:05.639
<v Speaker 5>one and only game Ota It's crebus started, uh and

725
00:36:05.920 --> 00:36:08.920
<v Speaker 5>he wasn't able to do much, nor was a Loca

726
00:36:09.079 --> 00:36:12.159
<v Speaker 5>or vsar kJ had a very good game, but it

727
00:36:12.599 --> 00:36:15.400
<v Speaker 5>was a game where they they really didn't know who

728
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:17.360
<v Speaker 5>they were and they didn't really start to trigger that

729
00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:20.199
<v Speaker 5>out until I mean, they got into the Big twelve

730
00:36:20.440 --> 00:36:24.079
<v Speaker 5>and really identified themselves and put the rotation and the

731
00:36:24.199 --> 00:36:27.760
<v Speaker 5>roles and everything together. So whereas Duke has been rolling,

732
00:36:27.840 --> 00:36:31.119
<v Speaker 5>Arizona has been developing. I guess it's a good way

733
00:36:31.159 --> 00:36:31.519
<v Speaker 5>to put it.

734
00:36:32.239 --> 00:36:34.599
<v Speaker 2>Last quick question on have this question after the after

735
00:36:34.719 --> 00:36:36.679
<v Speaker 2>we get off with you two, who's gonna win the

736
00:36:36.760 --> 00:36:39.559
<v Speaker 2>national title or get to the national title first, Tommy

737
00:36:39.840 --> 00:36:40.199
<v Speaker 2>or Sean?

738
00:36:44.519 --> 00:36:50.400
<v Speaker 5>Oh wow, how about can I say neither?

739
00:36:52.079 --> 00:36:53.960
<v Speaker 2>That's a good choice too. That's a good choice.

740
00:36:54.079 --> 00:36:57.519
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean that's the safe choice considering how hard

741
00:36:57.559 --> 00:36:59.920
<v Speaker 5>it is to get there. Sean Miller going to Tech

742
00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:03.840
<v Speaker 5>that's just such a wild ride. I guess he's like

743
00:37:04.440 --> 00:37:06.800
<v Speaker 5>I thought going back to Xavier was so good for

744
00:37:06.920 --> 00:37:09.960
<v Speaker 5>him because he didn't have to have that pressure and

745
00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:12.199
<v Speaker 5>he could just win there and they could make the

746
00:37:12.280 --> 00:37:15.159
<v Speaker 5>tournament most years and just have. But he clearly has

747
00:37:15.280 --> 00:37:18.239
<v Speaker 5>ambitions for higher than that, and and he's he's definitely

748
00:37:18.400 --> 00:37:22.320
<v Speaker 5>aiming high with a school like Texas that you know,

749
00:37:22.559 --> 00:37:24.960
<v Speaker 5>hired a guy who was an interim after going to

750
00:37:25.000 --> 00:37:27.159
<v Speaker 5>the Elite eight, and he goes to the tournament both years,

751
00:37:27.199 --> 00:37:30.480
<v Speaker 5>and they're done with him after two years. I mean

752
00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:35.119
<v Speaker 5>there's no time to to just you know, to settle

753
00:37:35.159 --> 00:37:40.320
<v Speaker 5>in there. Yeah. Yeah, he could. I mean one bad

754
00:37:40.440 --> 00:37:43.159
<v Speaker 5>year and that's over. But I mean he clearly he

755
00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:46.320
<v Speaker 5>feels that he wants that challenge again, and and good

756
00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:48.519
<v Speaker 5>luck to him. I would love it if we could

757
00:37:48.559 --> 00:37:52.400
<v Speaker 5>see some sort of an Arizona text. I mean some

758
00:37:52.519 --> 00:37:55.159
<v Speaker 5>of these projections, some of these projections leading up to

759
00:37:55.199 --> 00:37:58.239
<v Speaker 5>the tournament, had the possibility of Arizona Xavier in the

760
00:37:58.320 --> 00:38:03.239
<v Speaker 5>first round, and that would have been wild And yeah,

761
00:38:03.960 --> 00:38:06.480
<v Speaker 5>we'll never know. I mean, it's funny because he got

762
00:38:06.639 --> 00:38:09.280
<v Speaker 5>hired now at Texas by a guy who used to

763
00:38:09.320 --> 00:38:12.000
<v Speaker 5>be in the athletic department at Arizona in Crystal content.

764
00:38:12.119 --> 00:38:16.800
<v Speaker 2>Right, who wasn't when he wasn't here when Jim hired him.

765
00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:18.519
<v Speaker 2>So you know, but in a full circle.

766
00:38:18.599 --> 00:38:18.920
<v Speaker 5>Correct.

767
00:38:19.239 --> 00:38:22.360

773
00:38:31.559 --> 00:38:34.199
<v Speaker 2>at the Ludolsen era. In my new book, Lessons from Lut,

774
00:38:34.280 --> 00:38:35.760
<v Speaker 2>It was a labor of love through the eyes of

775
00:38:35.800 --> 00:38:39.039
<v Speaker 2>twenty five former players, coaches and friends to give insight

776
00:38:39.119 --> 00:38:41.400
<v Speaker 2>to the coach and the man who led them, competed

777
00:38:41.440 --> 00:38:44.079
<v Speaker 2>against them, and inspired them twenty five chapters for his

778
00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:47.719
<v Speaker 2>twenty five years as Arizona's beloved coach. Lessons from Lut

779
00:38:47.840 --> 00:38:50.119
<v Speaker 2>is an insight to how he built the program into

780
00:38:50.199 --> 00:38:53.960

<v Speaker 2>you know, a winning team. And I'll tell you what

849
00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:43.760
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't have been more sad, disappointed, upset to find

850
00:42:43.800 --> 00:42:48.000
<v Speaker 2>that freaking Sean Miller is taking the job at U T.

851
00:42:48.840 --> 00:42:50.880
<v Speaker 2>It's terrible. I mean, first off, we do as bad

852
00:42:50.920 --> 00:42:52.719
<v Speaker 2>as we got a brick grunch. But my god, what

853
00:42:52.880 --> 00:42:57.559
<v Speaker 2>the hell are we thinking there? Okay? One, in my

854
00:42:57.880 --> 00:43:01.159
<v Speaker 2>very unbiased opinion, Tommy Lloyden right got to be.

855
00:43:01.280 --> 00:43:04.239
<v Speaker 4>He's got to I think he's he's as a foundation

856
00:43:04.559 --> 00:43:06.760
<v Speaker 4>for a path to championships.

857
00:43:07.079 --> 00:43:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I don't have to go the same way. I'm

858
00:43:10.280 --> 00:43:13.159
<v Speaker 2>the delusional fan on the show. So you know, we

859
00:43:13.280 --> 00:43:15.719
<v Speaker 2>don't know you enough to call you that, But okay,

860
00:43:16.480 --> 00:43:18.920
<v Speaker 2>I think that I think that you know, based on

861
00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:24.599
<v Speaker 2>what I saw Sean Miller coaching here and the teams

862
00:43:24.679 --> 00:43:28.320
<v Speaker 2>that he coached that he held them back. No, but

863
00:43:28.440 --> 00:43:32.480
<v Speaker 2>he's changed. He's changed, which which is very funny because, Yeah,

864
00:43:32.559 --> 00:43:35.599
<v Speaker 2>I was watching him this weekend after Texas or whatever,

865
00:43:35.840 --> 00:43:38.360
<v Speaker 2>and I'm thinking, because I talked to him every year

866
00:43:38.440 --> 00:43:40.920
<v Speaker 2>about this, are you gonna go fast? And he would

867
00:43:40.960 --> 00:43:43.000
<v Speaker 2>give me that look like, shut the hell up, Steve,

868
00:43:43.360 --> 00:43:45.840
<v Speaker 2>I played the way I play the pack line defense

869
00:43:45.840 --> 00:43:49.480
<v Speaker 2>and blah blah blah blah blah blah. And I'm thinking, Okay, well,

870
00:43:49.519 --> 00:43:52.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm not gonna argue with you again. But we talked

871
00:43:52.400 --> 00:43:53.719
<v Speaker 2>about that all the time. And then he got to

872
00:43:54.039 --> 00:43:57.719
<v Speaker 2>got to his Zavy Xavier and he changed. He changed. Yeah,

873
00:43:57.760 --> 00:44:02.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't, I don't change year, he'd still be coaching here. Oh,

874
00:44:02.239 --> 00:44:05.320
<v Speaker 2>he definitely still be coaching The year we had Treer.

875
00:44:05.760 --> 00:44:08.480
<v Speaker 2>It was one of those things where it's like going, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,

876
00:44:08.800 --> 00:44:11.719
<v Speaker 2>let's slow this down. Yeah and don't passy. Yeah we

877
00:44:11.760 --> 00:44:13.480
<v Speaker 2>have a you have a four on one fast break.

878
00:44:13.760 --> 00:44:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Let's pull it out and work the offense. And yeah, no, no, no,

879
00:44:17.119 --> 00:44:19.519
<v Speaker 2>I think he's self destructive. I think he won he

880
00:44:19.679 --> 00:44:23.599
<v Speaker 2>wanted to make it all about his coaching won the game,

881
00:44:24.119 --> 00:44:26.679
<v Speaker 2>not the player. Well, you're you're a utra. Good luck

882
00:44:26.719 --> 00:44:29.360
<v Speaker 2>with that, Yeah, I know, here we go. We'll see,

883
00:44:29.440 --> 00:44:31.280
<v Speaker 2>we'll see who he brings in. I mean, well, he's

884
00:44:31.280 --> 00:44:33.239
<v Speaker 2>always been a good recruiter. Well he can he can do,

885
00:44:33.280 --> 00:44:35.480
<v Speaker 2>and he's a pretty good coach. I mean, he's a

886
00:44:35.599 --> 00:44:38.079
<v Speaker 2>he's a he's the old school coach. He's the old

887
00:44:38.079 --> 00:44:40.719
<v Speaker 2>school coach. Unless he's changed with that too, but you know, uh,

888
00:44:40.960 --> 00:44:45.719
<v Speaker 2>he looks happier. And then Xavier, you're you're they gave

889
00:44:45.800 --> 00:44:49.119
<v Speaker 2>him a second chance, right, and I gotta go sorry.

890
00:44:49.480 --> 00:44:51.360
<v Speaker 2>I really would have liked to have seen Texas go

891
00:44:51.559 --> 00:44:55.800
<v Speaker 2>for a you know, one of these young upcoming coaches

892
00:44:55.880 --> 00:44:58.920
<v Speaker 2>that are really tearing it up. This may sound. I

893

903
00:45:26.320 --> 00:45:29.239
<v Speaker 2>have the most resources outside of what Ohio State. Maybe

904
00:45:29.760 --> 00:45:32.719
<v Speaker 2>New Mexico gave Michigan State all they wanted. Yeah, so

905
00:45:33.360 --> 00:45:35.280
<v Speaker 2>so here we go. Let me let me I want

906
00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:37.639
<v Speaker 2>Twitter and I want to make you guys laugh a little.

907
00:45:37.719 --> 00:45:39.559
<v Speaker 2>But we can talk about this, and anybody wants to

908
00:45:39.559 --> 00:45:43.599
<v Speaker 2>call please do us five two o four one four forty.

909
00:45:43.880 --> 00:45:46.159
<v Speaker 2>So one of the guys on Twitter who covers you,

910
00:45:46.280 --> 00:45:49.800
<v Speaker 2>they kind of these things. There are the things that

911
00:45:49.840 --> 00:45:53.440
<v Speaker 2>Arizona leads in the nation. Fouling three point shooters. Did

912
00:45:53.480 --> 00:45:57.840
<v Speaker 2>you ever see this goldading goldenating on shots that weren't

913
00:45:57.880 --> 00:46:01.239
<v Speaker 2>going to go in? Yes, right views during timeouts to

914
00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:04.800
<v Speaker 2>go against the Cats, shots beyond the half court real

915
00:46:04.880 --> 00:46:07.719
<v Speaker 2>or otherwise, you know, good or otherwise. And trash talk.

916
00:46:07.920 --> 00:46:11.000
<v Speaker 2>Do you do you notice the trash talk? Because I had,

917
00:46:11.159 --> 00:46:13.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, maybe maybe Caleb, maybe Caleb. Yeah. But you know,

918
00:46:13.840 --> 00:46:15.960
<v Speaker 2>the interesting thing is this is that Caleb was getting

919
00:46:15.960 --> 00:46:17.840
<v Speaker 2>a little chippy with some of these cats right right.

920
00:46:18.000 --> 00:46:20.400
<v Speaker 2>And I sat there and focused, I'm like, okay, I'm

921
00:46:20.400 --> 00:46:24.559
<v Speaker 2>gonna watch his lips and he didn't really say anything. Yeah, okay,

922
00:46:24.760 --> 00:46:28.880
<v Speaker 2>well okay, yeah, but he but yeah, well that's he's

923
00:46:28.880 --> 00:46:32.239
<v Speaker 2>certainly yeah, well you don't say anything important, nothing insightful.

924
00:46:32.519 --> 00:46:36.599
<v Speaker 2>But Caleb said, you know, I know he was trash

925
00:46:36.639 --> 00:46:39.719
<v Speaker 2>talking these guys. Boy, he was getting a little chippy. Yeah, okay,

926
00:46:39.760 --> 00:46:41.679
<v Speaker 2>hey you're on the iron nine on the ball. Who's this?

927
00:46:43.199 --> 00:46:45.880
<v Speaker 15>Hey, Steve, this is done, don let's get into another fight.

928
00:46:49.119 --> 00:46:51.760
<v Speaker 15>I'll settled down a little bit. Yes. The thing is

929
00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:55.440
<v Speaker 15>is the point I was trying to make you guys

930
00:46:55.480 --> 00:46:59.760
<v Speaker 15>started to defend your the point against what I was

931
00:46:59.760 --> 00:47:02.320
<v Speaker 15>trying to say. Okay, So that's because what I would

932
00:47:02.440 --> 00:47:08.039
<v Speaker 15>would go ahead, Well, because in the advertisement for your book,

933
00:47:08.639 --> 00:47:12.079
<v Speaker 15>you state it right there, if you're an Arizona Wildcat fan,

934
00:47:12.719 --> 00:47:17.039
<v Speaker 15>you know it's been successful for forty years. Yes, and

935
00:47:17.199 --> 00:47:21.480
<v Speaker 15>I don't think that that is acknowledged enough by the

936
00:47:21.639 --> 00:47:25.440
<v Speaker 15>current regime. I'm not saying that he's a bad coach.

937
00:47:25.840 --> 00:47:26.320
<v Speaker 5>There are some.

938
00:47:26.440 --> 00:47:30.360
<v Speaker 15>Things that you know, we can all pick apart these

939
00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:32.880
<v Speaker 15>coaches as we go, because I think I think Sean

940
00:47:32.960 --> 00:47:37.480
<v Speaker 15>Miller is going to do great at Texas. I think

941
00:47:37.599 --> 00:47:40.679
<v Speaker 15>that his second time around in the big time is

942
00:47:40.800 --> 00:47:43.119
<v Speaker 15>going to be is going to be the one that sticks.

943
00:47:43.199 --> 00:47:45.760
<v Speaker 2>I really do. Yeah, No, I don't. I would. I

944
00:47:45.800 --> 00:47:48.159
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't argue that because I think he's a good coach.

945
00:47:48.199 --> 00:47:52.320
<v Speaker 2>He'll have more resources, uh and they we'll see. I mean,

946
00:47:52.440 --> 00:47:54.159
<v Speaker 2>come on, he's he's a good coach.

947
00:47:55.679 --> 00:47:57.679
<v Speaker 15>He's a good coach. I think when he was here

948
00:47:57.719 --> 00:48:00.639
<v Speaker 15>at Arizona, it always seemed like he was coaching like.

949
00:48:00.800 --> 00:48:04.000
<v Speaker 2>He wanted he wanted to be the point guard. Yeah,

950
00:48:04.440 --> 00:48:07.360
<v Speaker 2>he wanted the ball in his hand, right, you know,

951
00:48:07.920 --> 00:48:10.280
<v Speaker 2>and that's all he knew. I mean, that's all he's known.

952
00:48:12.360 --> 00:48:15.719
<v Speaker 15>Yeah, and now he's you know, it shown to him.

953
00:48:15.800 --> 00:48:16.079
<v Speaker 2>Whatever.

954
00:48:17.159 --> 00:48:19.480
<v Speaker 15>The man had a roller coaster last night.

955
00:48:19.760 --> 00:48:23.519
<v Speaker 2>Holy moly. Yeah, would five minutes I asked this question

956
00:48:23.639 --> 00:48:26.440
<v Speaker 2>to the guys here on the phone. Five minutes in.

957
00:48:26.519 --> 00:48:29.280
<v Speaker 2>What are you thinking it was over?

958
00:48:29.639 --> 00:48:33.159
<v Speaker 15>It's baseball season, baby. The Cats are ranked twenty third,

959
00:48:33.639 --> 00:48:38.280
<v Speaker 15>They're won eleven out of twelve, they won a sixteen

960
00:48:38.360 --> 00:48:41.639
<v Speaker 15>inning game on Friday night, they got blown up on Saturday,

961
00:48:41.679 --> 00:48:43.679
<v Speaker 15>and then they came back with a big win yesterday.

962
00:48:43.760 --> 00:48:44.719
<v Speaker 2>That's what I was thinking.

963
00:48:45.519 --> 00:48:48.800
<v Speaker 15>It's baseball season. It's still baseball season, but it's still

964
00:48:48.840 --> 00:48:52.000
<v Speaker 15>the end of the basketball season. And the basketball season continues,

965
00:48:52.320 --> 00:48:53.199
<v Speaker 15>so aime and.

966
00:48:53.199 --> 00:48:54.679
<v Speaker 2>A halftime, you change your mind.

967
00:48:58.639 --> 00:49:00.960
<v Speaker 15>At halftime, it looked like, okay, okay, so we're gonna

968
00:49:00.960 --> 00:49:04.239
<v Speaker 15>win this thing by fifteen or sixteen, and then went wha,

969
00:49:04.239 --> 00:49:09.880
<v Speaker 15>well wait a minute, look who you're talking about. And

970
00:49:10.639 --> 00:49:12.800
<v Speaker 15>I knew it was gonna get close, and it got

971
00:49:12.880 --> 00:49:16.920
<v Speaker 15>too close for comfort there at the end. But I mean,

972
00:49:17.079 --> 00:49:21.920
<v Speaker 15>these guys, they're mentally tough. They don't shake they you know,

973
00:49:22.239 --> 00:49:25.119
<v Speaker 15>it's it's like like they said in the in the

974
00:49:25.559 --> 00:49:28.079
<v Speaker 15>in the post game, was you know, we knew we

975
00:49:28.159 --> 00:49:30.039
<v Speaker 15>still had a lot of game to go. You know,

976
00:49:30.480 --> 00:49:33.039
<v Speaker 15>we knew we just had to keep stay the course

977
00:49:33.920 --> 00:49:38.840
<v Speaker 15>play our game. With the motion offenses, it's kind of

978
00:49:39.000 --> 00:49:42.280
<v Speaker 15>hard to see that they're running plays. It's kind of

979
00:49:42.320 --> 00:49:44.880
<v Speaker 15>hard to recognize that because I'm not in the gym

980
00:49:44.960 --> 00:49:48.760
<v Speaker 15>every day and and all that stuff, So I don't,

981
00:49:50.199 --> 00:49:54.079
<v Speaker 15>you know, the the high handoff that Henry would kept

982
00:49:54.119 --> 00:49:56.920
<v Speaker 15>giving the caleb and then he makes a decision to

983
00:49:57.000 --> 00:49:59.880
<v Speaker 15>shoot it or drop give it down to give it

984
00:50:00.239 --> 00:50:03.320
<v Speaker 15>to Henry and that stuff. When that was pointed out

985
00:50:03.400 --> 00:50:05.840
<v Speaker 15>during the telecast, and going, man, we run that a lot.

986
00:50:06.480 --> 00:50:08.920
<v Speaker 2>Right right, okay? And final question, because we can run

987
00:50:08.960 --> 00:50:13.199
<v Speaker 2>out of time here. Uh is Sweet sixteen good enough?

988
00:50:17.760 --> 00:50:21.880
<v Speaker 15>This is Arizona. Okay, So we get out of the

989
00:50:22.000 --> 00:50:25.119
<v Speaker 15>round of sixty four, we're playing with house money. Baby,

990
00:50:26.920 --> 00:50:28.719
<v Speaker 15>It's all good as long as we get out of

991
00:50:28.800 --> 00:50:30.880
<v Speaker 15>the first As long as we get out of the

992
00:50:30.960 --> 00:50:35.119
<v Speaker 15>first round, you're gonna be playing somebody good in around it,

993
00:50:35.360 --> 00:50:37.760
<v Speaker 15>you know, in around the thirty two, you're gonna be

994
00:50:37.840 --> 00:50:41.519
<v Speaker 15>playing somebody good. And the same thing goes with you know,

995
00:50:41.639 --> 00:50:44.239
<v Speaker 15>getting to the Sweet sixteen, and the same thing goes

996
00:50:44.280 --> 00:50:46.639
<v Speaker 15>to the Elite eight. No matter what, you're gonna have

997
00:50:46.719 --> 00:50:49.920
<v Speaker 15>to play her tail off. And these guys, I think

998
00:50:50.039 --> 00:50:54.159
<v Speaker 15>these guys are primed just to keep on doing that. Yeah, okay,

999
00:50:54.199 --> 00:50:57.920
<v Speaker 15>And I think and it looks funny that Alwaka didn't

1000
00:50:57.920 --> 00:51:00.519
<v Speaker 15>get back in the game until the vin we end

1001
00:51:01.440 --> 00:51:04.079
<v Speaker 15>when he was there to rebound and pick up that

1002
00:51:04.280 --> 00:51:07.320
<v Speaker 15>last that fourth file, because he was he sat.

1003
00:51:07.159 --> 00:51:10.239
<v Speaker 2>Down with four or three four four we gotta go.

1004
00:51:10.400 --> 00:51:11.119
<v Speaker 5>Oh he was sick.

1005
00:51:11.320 --> 00:51:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah done, man, Thank you man, Thanks for the call.
