yes to more plans and finally getting outside, running, walking, just moving again. It's the perfect time to upgrade your everyday go-tos with Bombas. Bombas sports socks are super comfortable and designed with sports specific tech for running, cycling, yoga, hiking, you name it. I've been trying to get more into running and incline tread when I can't get outside of the weather's not so nice. So whatever the case is,

I'm truly just blown away by these socks. They are a game changer. They're cushioned when you

need it, sweat wicking. They don't slide around. I could just focus on just going as fast as possible instead of constantly adjusting my socks. Once I put the boots back in the closet, Bombas warm weather footwear is back in the rotation. I just know the Bombas slides whenever I'm going to the grocery store there, they're made with this super lightweight and waterproof EVA that soft, but still very supported. They're really comfortable and perfect to toss on and go. I just put them on right

On today's part of my take presented by draft kings, the New York Knicks are up to nothing. In the NBA finals, no games over the weekend, which was weird, but we have our good friend Brian Winhorse on the show to tell us what the spurs can do to get out of this hole,

or is it going to be a coronation for the next? As early as Wednesday night, we're also going to talk Stanley Cup final. Probably the craziest first three games to a Stanley Cup final ever. It's been insane. We had another overtime game with three goals and 39 seconds. It was nuts. We're going to do who's back of the week. Some national sports podcast topics. I also have a fun game for us. I'd like to like the fun games. So that's a little teaser. You guys want to play

a fun game. You guys are down to play a fun game. I love fun game. All right. So we'll play a fun game.

Let's go. Welcome to part of my take presented by draft kings. The crown is yours. Today is Monday, June 8th

“and the New York Nix are two games away. Oh, you're going to clap. You want me to say it?”

I was about to clap. Do you want me to say it? The New York Nix are world champions. Congrats to Nixon all their fans. Congrats memes. Congrats Zach. Way to go. To nothing going back to the Mecca back to New York. It's going to be a movie Monday night. It's going to be insane. I actually do believe that. I it's rare that there's a game that you're like hype for when you have no rooting interest and I am hype for what the New York

Nix in the NBA finals are going to look like at MSG. I think it's going to be absolutely nuts. The crowd is going to be nuts. The president's going to be there, which by the way, that part does suck that no one can do. I think they canceled the outdoor watch parties. That sucks. Yeah. They should let the, let the boys watch. It does suck, but on the other hand, Mitch Robinson's going to go nuclear with Trump court side. That's like everything he's ever

hoped for. It's going to be an absolute scene. So Friday night to recap. Friday night we had

a instant classic fourth quarter because we had the Nix looking like they were going to cruise to a two O lead. The spurs come all the way back and then in the last two minutes, I don't know if we should say we're going to talk to Brian Winhorse that the moment was too big for the San Antonio spurs because this is a storyline that they are the youngest team to be in the

NBA finals and you have a core that is all under 25 years old and and Wemby's first trip,

you know, first meeting full first playoffs and he gets all the finals, but the end of game sequence where Victor Wembanyama tries to pass the ball to Steph Castle in transition and throws it off his back for a turn over for Bronson going to the free throw line hitting one and then Wemby who got a good look missing the final shot. It was tough. It's about as bad a last minute as you can possibly have for Wemby. It was playing so he choked. That was a big time troke at the end.

You got to look before you throw that pass. It was a ill advised pass to make and then

“out of frustration he just he commits a bad foul. I think Wemby's to blame obviously for everything”

happened at the end of this game. I think we should be fair. Mitch Johnson should get some blame for the way these two games have gone like can you imagine pop losing these two games back to

back and pop did talk to the team after the first two games. So maybe he helped. But yes, I agree.

I treated it in the moment. I thought Mitch Johnson not calling it time out there was crazy. They have one time out left. There are seven seconds left or whatever was 10 seconds left. It's a tie game. I understand transition is kind of how the spurs got back in the game. They were attacking the hoop. They were getting out fast. But you have you have 10 seconds left. Call time out. Call up your best play. If Bruns on the floor attack Brunson like

the worst hat the thing that happens is you go to overtime. Instead I just feel like that's a moment where it's like you have you got to know your personal. You got to know you got a young team.

“Call time out get your best play and you get a shot to potentially win without the risk of losing”

in regulation which is what ended up happening. I was talking to our good friend Mark Titus about this. But I've noticed it more so from the thunder and a little bit from the spurs now. The two for one at the end of the game. It's the right call. Statistically the nerds have crunched all the numbers. You got to get the two for one. Get two shots

when you can. But the shots that are being put up in the first half of the two for one.

They can be kind of ridiculous. And when you when you put up a bad shot it also I want to see what the numbers are but I would assume that the likelihood of a fast break or getting a numbers overload off that miss, off a bad miss and a long rebound are higher than if you get a normal shot that you run like a standard play that's not rushed. I would agree. And I think that sometimes if you put up if you try super super hard and make sure to get that two for one up no matter what

the cost is that actually ends up hurting you a little bit. I think when we shot that he had the front half and two for one was terrible. It was a rush shot. It's a very rush shot.

“And when he was bad in the first half again like you you have to we have and this is all relative”

because I understand this is first time in the NBA finals he's 22 years old he's a future faceless league if Scotty Barnes stopped playing basketball but that's part of like part of being the future faceless league is that you get the criticism when you are not dominant in this is your team in the first half he was not can we look he looked he looked gas he looked off can he win the big one I do you hear afterwards he said that he he maybe celebrated a little too hard you know

I don't think he was getting drunk but like maybe didn't move on quickly enough from the western conference final. He also said that this is everything that I wish for being down to nothing. Yeah I have the opportunity to come back from that. When we talked to Winhurst I want to I want to get because Winhurst I don't know if you guys know but he is the win when we win he's one who found him but yeah I can't tell if part of like I think Winby is ultra confident and why wouldn't

you be if you're 75 freak I also did the quote saying this is everything that I wish for so there's no reason to really overthink it I mean this is what I'm built for when talking about being down O2 in the finals it feels like he's almost like this is what I'm supposed to say if I'm going to be a Kobe MJ type of guy yeah I love being down you know I mean yeah to nothing most dangerous leading basketball you know it would be great is that he didn't blow the first two games by

not playing up to your city embrace debate would you rather be up to nothing or down to nothing in the NBA finals I would be rather be up to nothing not me see I'm like mama mentality especially at home I want to be down and I want to be going on the road into Madison Square Garden that's that's the ideal spot to be in I also packed to miss Mitch Johnson real quick I don't agree with so the start of the sequence was actually the beginning of the the possession

I don't like that I think if you're going to foul when you win like in that situation

I just I don't really understand it because now you then have the the second situation happen

where jailing bronzons in the bonus well I think they they've failed way too quick right but it's just like don't even don't even foul there let it play out you you actually it's actually good that you have a foul to give because it isn't automatically at the free throw line if you follow in the floor yeah if you're going to follow though you you've got to wait a little bit longer than that and I it's not just that one instance at the end and then you know

not call them time I I do think that the way that the spurs have played with leads I feel like

“you have to put some of that blame on their head coach well I also think the line of”

something we've we've talked about it we've we've been talking about Dylan Harper and how awesome he

has been and the Dylan Harper the Dylan Harper Wemby lineup has been incredible in this series

the I I can't remember let me try to find it oh yeah here it is um oh no this is this is just Wemby's step but I pretty sure the Dylan Harper and Wemby on in on the floor together has been really really good stepcastle as much as I love him like he was in foul trouble he plays with an energy that might be he might be the guy who you want to bring off the bench I don't know you you're down to oh and you you lost the first two games at home it might be time to switch some

things up you got to figure something else out right because it does feel like the next are just the better team in the next I mean that one possession where they had the ball movement that was just are these your computer playing something that was incredible the ball movement

“on that one possession like the next are just and they're doing it with everyone. Jalen Bronson has not”

been like super dump I mean outside the fourth quarter in game one it's not been like the Jalen Bronson show it's been the entire nix team Carl Anthony Towns has been sensational McHale Bridges has been awesome like everyone is doing it memes it's been crazy to watch that game was also raged for this oh yeah that's true they were really tried the refs they actually rescinded Mitchell Robinson's flagrant the next step and if they didn't if the nix had used their challenge and they didn't

challenge the OG three like they wouldn't have had any free throws in a second yeah yeah but it was

but like think about it you you if you're the spurs and you went into these NBA finals and I told you that in game one Jalen Bronson would have 30 points on 31 shots and in game two he'd have 20 points on 25 shots you would sign up for that every single day of the week you'd be like oh we're probably winning this series yeah but the difference is cat McHale Bridges Josh Hart being everywhere Landry Shamit just being the greatest shooter ever right now like it's the the whole team the whole

nix team yeah the whole nix team has just been awesome that they've been they everyone has stepped up in big moments and Josh Hart's commitment to not really scoring any points at all but you're getting every single loose ball that's ever existed yeah I do I they put play a very entertaining

“grand basketball and the scary thing for the spurs is you have to imagine that Jalen Bronson is”

going to have one of these nights he's going to go off yeah and he hasn't done it yet and you're own to looking at some subpar play from Jalen Bronson that's a scary place to be for the spurs congrats though congrats memes congrats Zach let's hear from means that you guys are just dominant right now what do you guys got maybe the best team in the history of the play we got to stop with the congrats I mean thirteen in a row is insane this is it third you guys have not lost since April

I know but you're still still two more wins away would it shut for say the night of the NFL draft that was the last time that the nix that was right the the nix lost the game right is the Jets were picking yeah and and the match led up a grand slam to tie the game yeah that was a bad I saw someone tweet is that the Celtics have lost three times more recently than the nix is that true yeah so that's got bounce in the first round oh shit yeah it's it's an insane run you

guys are on so can we congratulate you we can be doing the early celly thing what what what what look there's what makes you scared of this spurs see I and I know it is long series like there could still be a chance that if the spurs win this game three then then things get a little tighter I truly think the nix are just a better basketball team all around then the spurs that's just and in the lines also though are they like one and a half point favorites it was two and a half

when I last there were there were six and a half point dogs in game two there were five and a point dogs in game one I don't get it there bet there are better basketball team like it's two and a half point favorites I I don't know what's say memes they're the better basketball team no so anything could happen but they're the better basketball team it does look like men vs boys right now right

like answered he was he was he was bad in game one and he was great in game two and like he

“answered that he was very very efficient he was aggressive and and overall like the spurs hit a”

lot more shot you know like they they shot better and they had more contributions for they had contributions for more guys but still doesn't matter because the nix they defend that's the thing is the nix defend too it's such a high level that it's just it's so hard I was shocked that they gave up that lead and then I was I was not shocked they won the game though because they're the better basketball team 99 out of a hundred times that shock goes in like the history of the

nix the one shot at the end like it it goes in and the nix are dead and then they they get reverse reverse we gentlemen sweep gentlemen sweep gentlemen sweep but like we're living in that timeline where it's the one shot missed do you want to talk some crazy timelines I got some crazy stats for you yes this is just these are these are perfect PMT stats that are not if you come to this show

“looking for like on off numbers and you know switches and and we're not going to do that what”

what are you what are you shaking your head for max do you don't do that here yeah you sure so we but what we do do is or I would I would call it the in we're more or a stats guys where it's vibes

and stupid numbers and stupid coincidences so here's the here's the first one memes

there was no NBA finals game on Saturday or Sunday this weekend the only other years without a Sunday game in the NBA finals so there's no NBA finals game at all in this series on Sunday the only other time that there was no NBA finals game on a Sunday in a series 1999 spurs beat the nix also 1970 the nix beat the lakers that is crazy so that's a one one stat right there that's wild do you want another one one stat that we we do we don't know okay

here's the other one one stat 1976 NBA finals the Celtics take a two-o lead and win in six games 1986 finals the Celtics take a two-o lead and win in six games 1996 finals the bulls take a two-o lead and win in six games so this is every 10 years team takes two-o lead wins in six games 2006 finals Maverick's blow a two-o lead in the NBA finals

2016 NBA finals warriors blow a two-o lead in the NBA finals now we're 2026 that's every day every decade for the last 50 years every series started two-o three-in-a-row two-o the the team that went up two-o one and six the last two two-o team that went up two-o blue it put the good news is if you guys go up three-o it's over yeah why do you what do you think about that stats over again these are dumb stats

it's already over it's not over what do you think about that stat I didn't like that one that one's not nice that one's not a nice stat what were they at home to start or away uh I don't know no because the warriors were definitely at home right yeah

“yeah so that's that helps yeah I don't like that's that yeah that's not nice that I think uh the next”

having the kale bridges though helps he was on that sunsteam that blue the they won two games at home yeah on this one four straight with the bucks and he just keeps reiterating that the locker so he's like just constantly panicked by it yeah yeah yeah that was yeah the finals yeah the the the

the bucks lost their first two games at home yeah so the kale's battling demons with that

Mike Brown got swept by the spurs first time like they're all just it's nice having a team that's just all peaking after battling so many demons throughout the NBA and just being thrown away yeah and now they're just like the perfect team I just want to watch this team forever the perfect team there are there are playing like the perfect team you get you actually can't disagree with that the way that they've been going for the last like month and a half no and I'll start with the Hawks yeah yeah which again thank you

to the Hawks you memes did call it correct he called it correctly the name correctly he called it correctly the Hawks were a terrible matchup for the next day of proven so far through I know we're only halfway through the NBA finals or you know two games in but they've they've proven to thus far that to be the biggest test to the next this postseason but also memes when you when the Hawks were up to one was like the blowing up we're trading everyone for for yannas and now we're

sitting here and from that comment you have not bossed a game yeah but that's just motivation it's like

you either wins games or you're living in Milwaukee yeah that's true you now you basically told the

that point you just felt like the fans wanted more and now it feels like they want it more I mean hasn't smiled in like two months yep runs and does not smile yeah you know how I know that the NYX are probably gonna win this whole thing is because we've already got people coming out of the woodwork just trying to like grasp at the final straws being like yeah well you guys

tamper to get jail in broads and so they shouldn't even count that's true yeah the last second round

pick for it next tamper yeah well I Leon Rose's son is jailed throughout this agent that's where the right I'm I'm actually taking your side on this I'm like it's it's loser talk to even bring this up it's the punishment was a second round pick to bring it up to try to like take it away from you before you've already done it that's how you know that you're winning this is like the the last straw that they could possibly grasp at and it's it's meaningless I agree with you we just need

two more the spurs are still really good basketball team they're really young they've been planned yeah but I mean I think we've got enough enough of a sample size to prove that when

“we can't win the big one right I think he's got a clutch gene problem yeah that's what I think”

there were two games you can't win the big let me ask this big cat that's the fact memes did Michael Jordan ever throw a pass off of Scottie Pippin's back when they when they have a

chance to win the game never lost an NBA finals no I I Jordan never did it never lost an NBA

finals but memes he doesn't have a clutch gene the moment is too big he did say his eyes were like blurry after the game yeah the memory of it was blurry how many people do you think I do it by the AI of him walking down the oh Max put his hand up he didn't even have to finish it there was an AI version of when he going in the tunnel maybe four steps and then he like collapsed and sort of crying you got it I mean come on it's game two there's no way that was real head on

swivel did you have in bead flashbacks that was yeah I had a tweet that I was about to that I was about to rip I don't know about because someone was like I want my if if your star player doesn't react like this after a tough loss I don't want them and then I was starting to get mad

because people absolutely destroyed in bead for that and then I was like you know it let's not make

this about in bead and then I and then I deleted the tweet and then saw the replies that they were all that it was like this is AI this is AI I was like all right so good win good win hey how are you handling that snow that the the nicks will soon be in play for the team of the 20s yeah I mean they're there and they're gonna they're gonna sweep this series and probably have a case to be one of the greatest teams of all time it's it's tough I did I put an absolute

nuke on the nicks because I just knew that you know the spurs were gas and and they they didn't have what it takes and I was so I was kind of rooting for the nicks in that game because I I bet a big bet on it and it was like the game was so rigged for the nicks and somehow the next still won it's over I mean the the the scene and MSG on on Monday is going to be insane and even if they they can lose the next three games I still think they win what they're not gonna

lose any of them wait they can lose the next three games is so win yeah yeah I'll say right now the next losing next three games they could be in a little bit of trouble I'm gonna say that I'm just gonna be blatantly on like that would be a I'd be nervous if I were next fans being like hey we just lost three in a row including two at all that feels like that would be a pretty bad momentum swing yeah I mean nicks next fans are are insufferable and they're all coming out of

“the woodwork and it's it's it's tough but you have to just accept it is what it is there's nothing”

there's no as much as I want to hate hate hate hate it's like they this team cannot be saw what do you mean they're all coming out of the woodwork I feel like nicks fans and now you could you could not like the nicks fan base I'm just happy we're not in your home put in that much put in terms of like diehard fan bases that have been through shit I think the nicks are high up there like the nicks are they can you have some creases I don't you don't think that nicks fans keep

their fan in close to the best I don't think so yeah I mean I guess I mean I guess this is what happens when when teams make championship run is like you know not saying like anyone here but there's just people I see on social media and stuff like when we were in New York where it's like all of a sudden they're like going to the barge and like that's what you are you know okay yeah we're going to translate New York transplants yeah it also thanks right it's like how come oh

“you're such big nicks fans I don't remember you guys tweeting so much about the NBA finals”

when the nicks weren't playing and then like of course they're going to be more locked in when they're talking to the fucking finals also New York's got to be electric right like oh that's disgusting

walked on the sidewalk yeah there's got to be like a sense of just joy around New York

city right now that is that is electric ticker tape parade if they win can you hear us yeah I and I looked it up the other day but I didn't even realize that the like we're going down like they're they're parade rod is Broadway yeah it's right by our office yeah yeah

“you're becoming you should go no did you did you see the uh you and memes should go together”

all right you you video tape yeah yeah i'm busy did you see uh the get-in price now is what $10,000 crazy I thought about buying a ticket did you yeah that's that's just a throw up if they lost yeah I know that's the thing it's like I get it for game four six but game three like that is election but $10,000 fucking money that's it's crazy it's so much it's crazy what do you

think is uh the most hyped event at MSG game three or the Taylor Swift Travis Kelsey wedding yeah

I was gonna talk about this yeah I mean it's how tacky is that well I I think you believe it it's real yeah oh I don't they're gonna invite a thousand people to MSG I feel like this is I feel like they're they're pulling a fast one well I I think there's two scenarios going on and I I could be very very rungs you know what I am hoping that I am uh right because I don't I agree tacky is hell if they actually do this I think either one they sent out a bunch of dummy

invites being like we know we have a rat somewhere in our group mm-hmm and let's wait to see it get reported to they actually have so much money they did rent out MSG and all the people that are not really like the closest to them we'll be there and then there'll be a video screen being like we're actually in a private like we're in an island somewhere far away having our real wedding sorry you couldn't make it but we really didn't want the popularity to blow it up so we told everyone

that we're doing it in in Madison Square Garden or that they're doing theirs in the Hulu theater just downstairs yeah and everyone else can watch upstairs that was my initial it could be smoking at a rat because like it sounds like there was one source that talked the press about this if they

“do it and it's going to be tacky you should just go full on tack you should sell tickets mm-hmm”

like you should sell that place out have it be like 30,000 people there to watch you get married how much I mean they get in for that might be more than three how much you think ticket prices would be if if they like sold the entire stadium for their wedding like 10 grand probably more yeah Swifties you think they're more tell us Swift fans or New York Nick fans out there I was gonna make a joke but I don't want to get the Swifties upset at me I mean it's probably Swifties

someone someone could make the joke like what I knew you were gonna make the joke I'm not gonna make the joke I'm like what did you say like woods what I got to save up for their their cats college education mm-hmm you can't say that I could but I didn't I did not say that I wouldn't say that that would be wrong of me to make that joke I think you didn't make the joke you also just be like they don't have jobs they that is posting online in a fandom account is that a

job I'm not what I'm not making any jokes I think this is a dummy wedding they're putting out and they're getting everyone off the set it could be looking right now oh the oh the get in prices come down a little you know what five grand fuck it fuck it make a billion dollars off this wedding you threw them sell tickets also put it on paper for you yeah live it for you yeah why not go for it

do do do the whole nine yards they should never have to work a day in your life you you could

retire off of your wedding that's a pretty sweet gig I'm pretty sure they're good right now I know but you could like you could probably make a billion double retire you can make a billion dollars on your wedding they should just make it like a like just televised it and paper view that's really what it is paper view it well they're also smart because they're only having one wedding unlike Mac so if Mac's tried to do this it would be like oh just catch night three yeah

“if you want to get back with the switches you can buy this the court type seat and then like do”

talk that was going to be by his back his eyes was he's going to I was at I was going to throw out to the group is that creepy if I bought the seat that Taylor Swift sat in it is it auctioned off I mean it's a it's a little creepy but it also would be cool if we just had it in the office it would be cool that would be cool that would be that would be the least cool of all we've gotten a lot of cool things you're telling me if there was a seat just sitting

in the middle of the court and I was like hey that's the seat that Taylor Swift sat in to watch James Harden blow another playoff game you wouldn't feel a little bit of goosebumps no no sir okay I guess you're not a Swiftie like me cats I didn't know one made that joke

through college yeah be me my good friend me think about it uh memes what are you saying memes will just sniff the chair no I said I bet you somebody was sniffed the chair yeah would you sniff the chair I would not would not I would not crazy fan was I'd buy the chair I also wouldn't judge if anyone sniffed it but I would buy it that would actually mean it's gonna sniff this chair that would probably be we would have to hire extra security if that chair

was here yeah like that chair would need a full-time guard I would just have like Dana's

“is it first what is it first if you smell the chair you get shot I think I think you just”

have Dana beer sitting at first like honest sniff it dude I would just fog that chair yeah

I think I'm guessing that this auction is going to get out of my price range I think there's seven days left I saw it at two grand I think I'm gonna be tapped out it I don't know I you can't I have two grand I'd be the my limit for this chair because it's gonna it's gonna attract a lot of freaks yes the thing yeah but it is a very funny thing that they're auctioning off this chair I don't really know who who benefits from this auction you find this auction it was on yeah we click on the

ESPN article that was there you just had it okay now click on the other thing well there's thing it says right there there's hyperlink you know what a hyperlink is dude hyperlink dude have you ever hyperlinked current bit six grand I'm out yeah I'm out that's gonna get up to like 50 I think I'm out that is officially I've recused myself and all Taylor Swift chairpad all right so memes and Zach are you guys gonna watch the game together on Monday night I'm currently doing the

still good okay that's pretty healthy meal watch it from bed hey what's your pregame meal you're on you're this has been the worst NBA plant yeah I haven't I've not been doing like a superstitious I've been eating different meals in different days every ever since you said is your favorite two weeks well no that was the first one I know but it's like everything's gone bad since yeah yeah it's been tough it's been it's been tough at least the hockey's been entertaining to watch

yeah so uh hey go back to your team of the 20s nightmare scenario that you have I would say

“nightmare scenario that I have yeah I would say that if the nicks win this finals I think that”

they're already ahead of the Celtics because they beat you in the playoffs last year and also if they admit if they end up if they don't lose again yeah if they don't lose again and then they probably they probably have an argument uh the Celtics I think have more conference finals and more finals appearances so yeah they lost one head to head to the next but I still think the Celtics have it but that's that's that's that's that's that there's a lot of a lot of years left this decade so

not a lot yeah it's twenty twenty six yeah there's enough years where it's like the there's three years of whatever the standings are after the season don't mean a lot yeah that's okay but they're at least tied it up you can't delay your 20s were better than the nicks if they win this no but the 20s aren't over right we'll be we'll be neck and neck right but this is like also just like juju for like all the New York City this is the longest you know this is the last yeah I

said I show you a long time how it was crazy how we lived there for so long and they never

one shit and it's like now they're actually who is like you know obviously it was you know red socks and cubs and then I think the nicks I think it's like other than the nicks the bills

of like great stories there's not there's only a handful left of like you know long suffering

“fan bases finally yeah guardians guardians yeah yeah so that's my fears like what if this just”

knocks the lid off for New York and then they can't stop winning would you take this if it knocks the lid off put for the wrong teams means all except one the Rangers yeah yeah what if they ever else goes Rangers and Giants all goes yeah yeah Rangers they suck yeah okay anything else for the game I'm excited for game three there should be a game on Sunday I don't know why there was a game on Sunday should have been a game on figure it out there should be there the fact

that there was no Stanley Cup and no NBA finals game today is just it's a disaster of the highest order we need sports on weekends I'd a great figure it out I'd a great okay before we're going to talk more NBA finals with Wendy who's actually on site in New York now so you can give us a little vibe check before we talk some more sports Reese's nothing beat summer break when you

dot draft kings dot com slash promos okay boys is Stanley cup final unbelievable so game three

we had the midchmarker hat trick in the second period alone the the Knights scored six goals

in the second period two of them were were were just allowed correct calls yep including one where I I had the theory that Anderson the goalie for the hurricanes got concuss because he got his head whipped around and then he gave up four goals like that and so it's for nothing look like it was like hey Vegas is just this is gonna be the easiest whenever they're probably gonna win the Stanley Cup final and then in a matter of thirty nine seconds in the third period with twelve thirteen minutes left

the hurricane scored three goals three goals and thirty nine seconds score fourth to tie it up to take it to overtime go to double overtime and then the Knights win the game in double overtime

“off a ricochet shot at like the Chipotle sign I think it was uh tech it was kind of an own goal”

but they credited to a guy from the from the Knights for being the last to touch it but that was it was a soft goal as weird goal weird way to end it the Knights needed that in this game like you said Mitch Marra I think that's the fastest uh hat trick in terms of time elapsed on a clock from

comeback uh which I believe is the first four goal comeback and Stanley Cup final history and then

like you said uh the thirty nine seconds to score those three goals was the fastest scoring burst

“I believe in select up final history as well crazy game and then he goes overtime nobody scores”

yep and and then everyone's but whole super tight watching it just like crazy crazy tens hockey again weird way to end it but if the Knights don't get that luck they're fucked I think I there's I don't think that they can give up that comeback and then go on to win the the cup final after that would have made them crumble and I think that if the the team that win wins that game I believe it's about 80% of the time goes on to win the Stanley Cup this this series has just been

it's been on crack I mean we had like every every single game has been just uh a big lead blown comeback two overtime games it's just been such fun fun hockey and Mitch Marra is the story right now he is obviously the the guy who's probably on pace to win the cons month if the uh final ended today he is he's just changed the entire narrative he needed to get changes scenery he was this this is all to blame for uh for the good people it's Rano but Mitch Marner in

70 games playoff games before this year he had 13 goals in 19 playoff games this year he's got 10 goals

so a little bit of a difference he's been on fire he's been incredible I asked the guys I asked

bison and wit and yans and I was like not to troll but like his is literally just a like blame Toronto and they said it's a little more nuanced specifically that the nights are just a way better team overall so he's benefiting from playing on a better team but yes part of it is that there's a lot of pressure in Toronto and he's from Toronto and being away from that probably his loosen is game up yeah he's played his best player on the ice it was uh it was close to being a disaster for the

goldmights now everything is sunshine rainbows because they were able to to luck to win to win and it's crazy how quickly that can happen like they would be so down on themselves if they didn't

“happen to to squeak that one out now I think they're probably gonna I'm gonna bet on him next game”

and we're bet on him game afterwards love the nights love the nights yeah and uh we also had with mendoza dimendoza getting on the crankoff was he a cranker I believe he was yeah he's cranking that shit he was cranking the fuck out of it so I don't know number one pick highsman winner national champion I feel like I feel like this is just we said it before the series started whoever wins a crank off it's probably gonna win the series and then you're gonna break out marked

Davis they have to let Mark crank yeah that Mark Davis is over and if Mark David you want to win right now have him crank it what are you gonna what are you gonna counter with David Tapper can't do it can't do it can't do it oh David Tapper would be funny because I just I don't know just something about him cranking you can't overcome Mark Davis crank no we should get a crank we should yeah you're right we should get a crank yeah the pause and your sentence there you

pause listen any minor league team any team that is trying to sell upgrade their crank let me know

I would love to buy the crank um they guess if you went it all I would I'd buy that crank in a second

he's just upgrade to a newer crank I don't think you can sell the Stanley Cup crank it's just basically fishing that's just what they're doing and what's really in a big shark oh these are listen big cat these are cheap really yeah crank's are cheap okay we can we can get probably the best yeah you can get you can get probably the best crank ever made for about

“for less than 300 bucks okay but we do need a game use crank I think that would be and it”

would be fun to do it like before NFL Sundays yeah we'd have to get sold right here to who's cranking through the first one yeah that would be fun which you bring in gas to crank before yeah we should it's pretty much will just be our Uber East delivery driver like hey man I want to hit the crank who's gonna be the sub crank it's a gambling game this week okay do you guys want to play the fun game I was talking about yeah sweeping the nation yeah

so I didn't realize this we often talk about it with the NFL combine but the NHL combine they might have weirder questions in the NFL combine did you guys see any of these go there weren't viral but there were some questions that were being thrown out of it so apparently the Canadians are like the king of these questions and they also do weird thought experiments where they they'll like hand you a puck and they'll say shoot this puck like throw this puck into

what's your confidence level at but the question that was asked is this prospect

Caleb Mahat Hote Malhotra who's gonna be a top pick said the Canadians are someone asked one of his buddies if you were on a deserted island with no water for a day's walk and you had someone beside you with a water bottle would you kill them to take the water so a day to get more water or would you kill that person this to me sounds like when Dwight's true tried to establish a p-coiner in the elevator after like 10 seconds you just walk you can just walk and not

not murder somebody okay the other one to the Canadians I think this is the iterates so they've done this a couple times the other one they asked a couple of years ago uh if you're stranded a deserted island with someone and only a bottle of water in a baseball bat and you can't share the water and the other person takes the water first what do you do with the bat so you're essentially

saying you're gonna die yeah if it's a desert island mm-hmm I don't eat okay here's what you do

“you have to play the hand game on the bat and then whoever wins gets the water okay you go”

hand over hand or you say hey let's play a game of baseball throw me that water bottle I'll try to hit it and then you grab it when you get to share the water I don't know it's can't the thing is if it's a desert island one bottle of water you're both gonna die just one person's gonna survive like two days longer why can't you share the wall I don't like get to share the water max cash in the water you're gonna kill someone and what world would you not be able to share the water

and when you're getting interviewed by the Montreal Canadians for the NSL combine then you can do another one how do you describe the color blue these are so stupid sky ocean that's good apparently they also hand hand someone a brick and they say list all the things you can do with it in the next 30 seconds a brick brick okay go hang

buy some curls okay throw a through car window yeah throw a through a house window why don't you do these things you ask what he could do yeah he can you get you yeah I know it's follow a question why stand on a dunk yep kick it you can throw that a person hmm build a house nope not with one brick we can start to build a house we can start to build a lot of stuff start to process of building a house what else could you do with a brick brick a door stop my question would

be a door stop good one yep a brick a wait yeah paper wait put that brick in your face yeah two put it put in the streets cut it yeah yeah what's your the brick well yeah you could make two bricks and then you could also take that brick and then uh you try to you guys the guy next to you how he would sell this brick hmm okay oh I got another one you can take it to the NHL combine and ask prospects wait they would do it yeah

that would fuck them up mentally they'd be like damn or goddess I you know what if I were sitting in that meeting I'd be like I could smash it over your face so you stop asking me all these dumb questions knock you out through a motherfucking practice my slap shot with a brick yeah okay a little wait yeah or your golf swing yeah yeah all right here's another one hockey these are mostly from the Canadians I think uh it's world war two and you're the captain of a boat yeah

“and you have to bomb an enemy boat but your teammates are swimming in the ocean in between you”

in the enemy boat yeah what's the question what do you mean you're saying kill max for all the hypothetical put the bomb in there the past three is just a kill max well wait wait wait we're talking about a torpedo I don't know about a bomb I don't know I was reading off what they said I was talking about an aircraft carrier I shouldn't have asked his question because I should have known you guys were going to get

bomb a lot of questions and a bomb a lot of questions I would need to know first all right how about this one would you rather avoid the teammates yeah accurate yeah accuracy one of my favorite thing hit your spot yeah would you rather have a four year career in the NHL and win a cup yes or a 10 year career in the NHL with no cup okay um 10 year the honest answers 10 year easily yeah but the answer I would give in this interview is four years apparently the team

“I think answers 10 year one again apparently the answer was 10 years because they wanted to see how much”

you love the game yeah I would never want I never want to stop playing for about me as I love winning

but you can't control your teammates you can't control where you end up you if you if you play for the Canadians you're never going to win so it sounds like loser talked to me would rather play for 10 years oh by the way the brick was

fun game of I had no idea that this was we'll have to ask the boys when they come back on but like

I thought that the NFL was the the the king of weird combine questions everyone's always trying to

get a stupid edge right but here here's the last one um the last one is if you were at a restaurant

“you ordered a BLT with cheese and the sandwich came without any cheese on it what would you do?”

absolutely nothing I mean the BLT same I look at it like uh literally nothing accidental diet okay they did me a favor by leaving the cheese off I had I had this moment just a BLTC yeah I had this moment this morning I took my kids to the diner and they like they're baking crispy and I said I asked the waitress to make it very crispy and that came back and it was borderline burnt and I just was like kids you're eating

this bacon you're not going to explain but I said the word very so that was on me I think yeah I think saying very changes everything yeah we were just talking about uh we're not gonna say who but one number of part of my take is very very picky about some of their orders that they put in Shane I would say like 75% of the time his order arrives and there's something off about a compared to what he ordered and he I don't think he ever eats he just sits there and like

“looks at it sadly it's like if you have if you're going to be a picky eater you have to learn”

to accept defeat because most of the time they're going to fuck something up and you know what real man does when their orders a little bit fucked up they sit there and they take it in silence and they yeah my order could be all the way fucked up and I sit down take it in the like it's it is what it is yeah when you order something it's in God's hands it's yeah you're not in control of what of what you're actually getting yeah you've you've thrown yourself into a very dangerous game

if you want something exactly particular of how you want it you make it yourself yep yeah

yeah I can't remember the last time I've ever sent something back never I can tell you never

yeah I don't I'd like there's not there's not a world I maybe I've like if you get it's medium rare not medium rare plus yeah if you get a stake but it it has to be like so off you don't mean it can't be off yeah overcooked it has to be so undercooked that you can just say hey you just put this back on there for like a minute so we went to the the outback I believe it was in Baton Rouge that went when pup punk was playing a show there I had the rarest stake ever

sir to the point where it was like kind of gray on the outside and then just read the entire way through and I just said I took one bite I was just like I'm just gonna I'm just gonna take it yeah I'm just not gonna eat my steak I had I had one in West Virginia for Rough and Routing that was like I cut into it I was like this is actually disgusting eight-to-hole fucking thing

“and it was disgusting but let's let's let's let that man go completely that's how”

complain about that man does we don't complain about that never you complain about it

to the people at your table and then the way the waiter comes over and he's like hey how was everything all delicious what about when your plates like half eaten and they're like oh you didn't like that I'm like no I loved it I'm just saying for later are you moved stuff for I that's what I do if I hate something if it's like comes out it's not what I wanted a move shit around strategic look like I eat it yeah what about returning clothes

no never never never no that was just a mess well I assume you're talking about buying online yeah yeah that's just that's just part of the game there's just a part of the game where you're like hey you know what maybe I shouldn't buy these things that are I don't know the fit of them because the Instagram swipe up ad was targeted towards me I bought a pair of pants a couple of weeks ago that just like same size I always always get wasn't even close was I could

barely even like get it around my waist yeah sometimes it's yeah yeah I just just are the same I bought a sweatshirt that was just a tummy shirt yeah it was XL it was that kind of yeah exactly exactly I always say fake two X it's a fake two X yeah we do a lot of crop tops now way too many crop tops I don't know what's happened but we got to stop that yeah my mom my mom for my birthday like three years ago got me a shirt from LL Bean it arrived it was I believe a

triple XL I don't know how she clicked on that to order that for me and I did send it back and I sent it back to get a large size then I got a bill from LL Bean saying I would've I believe it was like a dollar forty just decide not I'm not gonna pay that and so like a year later there was still howling me down being like sir we need the dollar forty for a turn postage I finally called him up and I fought City Hall I won hell yeah they finally waved it they said all right we can

see we're not getting the dollar forty from you good job tip of the cap sir well played hell yeah Shane has entered the chat oh what he said he said they got they they got me the completely wrong order oh okay there's a burger it's a burger I eat that I eat that that's actually you've been

and you ate it like a man what do you mean I ordered they were here I they ordered I won't say

the place because I I like posted and they they reach out and they were like oh well give you credit I still wasn't like I'm not gonna I don't even need a reorder it was like comically I ordered just like a lunch and they fucked up the orders and they sent me I guess this place sells flour and bulk they just sent me like a pound of flour that's crazy yeah didn't complain should have made bread yeah yeah should have done something about that okay any other stories before

we do who's back we did is bring it out you weren't a crannish girl yeah I keep going back and forth between like it's good to have one kind of crazy wide receiver under team and also like I think he just might be actually crazy yeah so we'll see there is a conspiracy theory out there that the

Niners canceled their OTAs so that he wouldn't show up so they could continue to recoup money

and not have to pay him got it it's kind of like the uh the episode of sunfield where Custanza keeps having to like break into the office hmm because they're trying to get him to quit yeah

“I think that there's some people that are saying that that's what he's doing but he's yeah he's taking pictures”

with like commanders hats on he's very good friends with Jaden Daniel still so I don't know I don't know it's it there's like every red flag possible going up right now yeah but he might still really be really good and what he says like I'm going to put my belt to their ass or the runner from the belt they're running he said the 49ers are running from the belt right now okay yeah so I don't know I was very confused hmm uh any more developments with the bear stadium yeah we're doing in the

Anna as of right now but still maybe not it's such a fucking mess yeah it's it was so perfect on Friday it came out that the bears ported directors voted to go forward with the Indiana side and then almost instantly after that there was people commenting being like but they're still a chance on it and heights because they could call a special meeting it's just so fucking stupid man and it's going to be it it will suck that they like I think in 20 years we'll if they're in

Indiana we'll anyone be like oh man this is crazy no but it will suck in the moment like it's going to suck that they're doing this and then yeah Indiana we'll have two NFL teams yep New York we'll have one NFL team Texas we'll have two NFL teams California we'll have two NFL stadiums kind of crazy that Indiana would be in that short list that has two and then when the commenters did this and they moved to Maryland they renamed the city form yeah are they

gonna rename the city ham and I don't think so they should that should be part of the demand is like call you're now entering the bear den I will say that there's been some like slander towards northwest Indiana residents which I think is unfair because first of all they didn't ask for this and like but I mean they're they live like 30 minutes from Chicago they were rooting for the bears and I would like to say that there's some been some very nice people are like for instance

“Zack you should actually go maybe do a research project there's a nice strip club called the landing”

strip that is already welcome bears fans yeah that's big of them yeah it's unity yeah check out dream girls nearby too I can put those in the short list and I think knockouts the thing is just a little aggressive the thing is it also was crazy because we had the world cup friendly at soldier

field on Saturday and soldier field looked incredible and again I I think there's play the blame

pie for this is so vast because it all starts I've seen a lot of people been like why are the bears even need to move a stadium well one they don't own it they want to own a same and two it's NFL that's pressuring them the NFL wants the bears to have their own stadium so that all the the prices go up for everyone's franchise that's where the pressure starting from Kevin Warren was brought in to do this job correct like this is what Kevin Warren wants to maximize the value of the

bears for the bear's ownership group that is his only job and in terms of a job is not to make sure you have fun at game correct his job is not to make sure that free agents will want to sign with the bears and if his job is to do one thing that's to get the most money in the pockets of his bosses and if he does if he gets a sweet heart package from Indiana that he's going to take that because of the in the day it's about the the plus minus that he can bring to the ownership group

based on the the new stadium and the retail around it compared to whatever Arlington prices is offering and if it's not close they're going to go to Indiana right I still I still think they're going to end up with a long time it still doesn't make sense when they bought a fucking personal land

“that is enormous for $200 million that that's what I'm saying also on Friday they have to”

if if the bears go to Indiana they have to at least rebe they should make them rebuild the the horse racing track Arlington park which was great because that's bullshit that we lost

bears leave I don't know I think I don't know the fire getting a new stadium I think the

white socks are getting a new stadium I don't know probably nothing yeah like it would probably just sit there for concerts and stuff it is weird that's going to Indiana I know it's fucking stupid whole thing is stupid just stay up part of things that they might just they might just this is just going to be like they're going to put their hands up and be like you know what we'll try again

“and when our leases up it's all to feel in like I think it's six years seven years and like”

we'll just run this out I do I love the idea though of Indiana just going all in on sports we're going to be at the sports state any any team that wants to build we will have you

should go after the bangles yeah go after the bangles and that will be like the eastern Indiana

bangles mm-hmm you could go after let's see the chiefs I don't know is the ink dried on the chiefs are moving states yeah why not come at the last minute Indiana yeah the Titans maybe get the Grizzlies to to build their new stadium they should you you're right they should just southern Indiana you're right they should rename they should wait until the bears start building and then we should just Illinois should just annex Indiana do they have I you know what I was

actually thinking about this the other day in terms of the upper peninsula of Michigan does Wisconsin and like does does does the state of Michigan have active duty national guard members on that border thought because what's to stop Wisconsin from just taking it like they just sending troops in overnight like they should they should think about doing that yeah if if Detroit if uh Michigan's not going to defend the upper peninsula yeah go take it go take it go take it

right Hank yeah yeah listen I I'm always in favor of good little land grab yeah

back and forth just take him and yeah real quick um okay oh anything happening golf mega court back who jt possum he's a mega court yeah who's back buddy I love that love that yeah a good court good for him yeah um I tell a quarter you us open champ okay show Nelly I should also mention there's tragic passing a Stacy King today there's so really don't know you he's the color commentary uh guy for the bulls he's been he's been doing it for 20 this year I think

20 years he's one of those guys every city has this where you have someone on the hometown broadcast where they are uh they make you want to watch the game even if the product is bad and that was Stacy King he was the guy who was he knew ball but he also made it entertaining you know the the two big two strong two fast two good derick rose the heart hustle and muscle joke him Noah he even recently the little boozy vert for uh modest like he had the nick names he had he it's like

like the like the dicky v's and and the crisp urman why we talk about these guys they make sports more fun and they welcome people in and that was Stacy King he also was just a great guy he would he would uh stay at the games and stand there for like 45 minutes to an hour to take pictures with

“fans after the every single game like literally every game he'd be like if you want to take a picture”

of me come come down court side after the game I'll be here and I'll make sure I take care of the fans I yeah it's weird whenever like a celebrity passed away you you don't really feel anything but this one was like a sucker punch was like I he was tweeting yesterday about the NBA finals I don't know what happened but I feel awful for his family I feel awful for everyone who worked with him and it will be very weird to have bulls broadcasts without Stacy King involved because he was

that type of guy and uh so yeah really really sad um okay should we do who's back the week okay who's back of the week is brought to you by twisted t summers here in twist t is coming in clush to turn our day drinking up a notch their new summer party pack has a brand new twisted lemonade made with real lemons and 5% alcohol it's got that refriger our refreshing taste with little kick no carbonation goes down smooth whether it's hitting the course for a round pre-gaming

where is it just go like after you get to 100,000 he's gonna be like all right thanks for tuning in

one monico yep the worst race they have by far but the city itself is going viral people are

“talking about how rich it is and and you know it's basically like a Florida Nashville”

on steroids for rich people wait like I possibly actually want to go to Florida or Nashville gosh it's like an entire country monico just has no taxes like I might be come I probably need to you know work a little bit longer but I don't have an NFL game there soon enough I would monico sounds awesome monico's so small how how small it's pretty small it's like a size of a small tiny

the whole monico is just one tiny little city and they so it's basically just like the rich people just

figured out a place to just to hunt poor people yeah they show up and it's like a more dangerous game yeah yeah no it's one of those places that you go in the size of the yachts that are parked in the harbor you think that they're huge and then you see that actually some of those yachts are just like the small yacht they then goes out and travels to the bigger yacht it's like the emotional support

“yacht that a billionaire has and then that's the one that you bring a shore so you can then drive”

your car off that yacht yeah I want to do some monico a lot of parties a lot of events I don't think anyone I mean we we got enough one a little bit on this on this podcast but monico's the bad race whoever swore the races are like not interesting to watch like no one that's in monico watch the race no it's a party yeah yeah in Pat Sportsown monico's definitely Pat Sportsown yeah hundred percent great party town though but hey you you what about growing the game F1 yeah

I mean I found that that's the that's their macca that's I like growing the game when they do more US events yeah okay like F1 doing US events is F1 fans version of NFL going to Europe they're like this is bullshit right but you like it because it's growing the game in the states I agree I agree the game's so hard that it worked on you that your lifelong fan no now so you're proving that what we've been complaining about we're actually right game two drivers

loose Hamilton uh George you're about to say Saint Pierre but it's not nope nope nope the twin Thomas's oh Max was happy yeah they were in here there you go Charles the Clare yeah yeah that was the album yeah Alex album uh what the fuck is George George Russell George boy what we call yeah the monico race makes so sense there's no overtaking they just whoever gets the fastest qualifying time you've won the race as long as you don't crash

I did like the any five hundred though the any five hundred rock yeah okay good who's back thanks you back okay my who's back the week is soccer yeah we'll come this week yeah I'm gonna do that but then I wrote down I can't even pretend to care yeah that's okay you don't

have to pretend to care but you might you might come down in the world cup fever the first half was

awesome against Germany it was one of those goals where it's like you watch that goal and you're like oh fuck yeah it got me hard I got an erection when he hit that volley it was the coolest goal maybe the best goal since 2014 in the world cup yeah wait put this is the world cup no it's not but it was a great is it was the best you as a friend team goal yeah also the the water pitch talk a lot of pitch talk all right well that was gonna be my

respect this related to to Harry Kane's complaint yeah all you ever he everyone in Europe is complaining they don't like to heat they don't like to like shut the fuck up it's mandatory how do you look here here listen I get England Scotland you guys got sent down to Florida I I understand that that's probably not a good combination for your fair skin deal with it yeah deal with it okay Florida's not that bad you just this time of year Florida's not great no

definitely not but I also don't care they they they they complain that this is this happens in Europe every single year because they don't have air conditioning there's a day where it's like

“80 degrees and they're like every old person died what was the opening ceremony I believe it's”

Thursday is the first game and then U.S. plays on Friday and it's Paraguay and this we got a

secret little U.S. men's national team group chat at Barsville Sports for the people no why not for the people who care about the team they're only involved I want the U.S. do well this would be awesome if the U.S. did well and I want us to win they let me know about some news that happened over the weekend in Paraguay so in their friendly their best player I hate I hate that

and it sucks because you want to beat teams when it's the best listen and this guy's hurt and

“I'm just I'm so mad about I wish he was playing I want to win this thing bad yeah because if you”

let us win soccer it's over can't tell us that's okay for the world don't let us win this fucking tournament or any world cup for that matter can't tell us shit if we win we're not cocky as motherfuckers ever we won't win but we should I'm excited now I've seen enough

in that first half against Germany we look good in Germany's like you know top five team in the

world oh I'm definitely excited I mean the world cup rocks like we lost yeah we lost but in the first half is when it's a friendly hank is a friendly is a send-off match and the goal is really the goal was awesome the goal is a Jedi is but if you can't get excited for the world cup you got a dump in your pants yeah yeah call me dumpy big deep okay I'm not telling you that the US is going to win the world cup because we're not but we should compete in our group to win

we should get out and then we should win if we win two all here's all I want I want there to be two mornings where I wake up feeling nervous and excited that it's all in the line for US

soccer so two elimination games that's all I want if I wake up in those more isn't the only

thing I'm worried about is what's going to happen in the US soccer game that day I will consider that a win for this world cup we should play in two elimination games my other plus one 40 win group D okay we should win the soccer rules from Australia the my other part of the world cup weekend because you get all these like teams coming to come to state side and all this you know it's we're going to we're going to get ramped up what do you guys think that Messi's going to do with the

signed Marcel Reed jersey he got it's probably pumped for that you can't make it's got to be the largest discrepancy in terms of talent notoriety accomplishments sign jersey to another guy yeah I

like I know no offense Marcel Reed he he has he did have some electric games last year but

you're talking about the goat in one sport in Marcel Reed hmm yeah so getting to see the different teams staying in the United States in the places that they're at and just imagining the scenarios that like the Argentinian national team is finding themselves in in the Kansas City area yeah it's very funny to me are like Brazil is just staying out in New Jersey yeah if you're

“texting him I think you have to give Messi the dog you have to give him revelry that would be”

a comparable thing like here's a dog hmm not here's a jersey that would be nice yeah very weird but yeah the the Europeans complaining get the fuck out here yeah Harry Kane's upset because he says too hot and floor or not he said he said the pitch the pitch wasn't in in great conditions wasn't that not even a world cup site it was him and it's a friendly site yeah and and New Zealand they got together afterwards and they were like yeah we want to stand as one and

complain about the pitch together and just just wind should shut up dude yeah shut up it's not even a fucking it's not even a site where you're gonna have to play a real game yeah Harry Kane let's friendly how much of the pitch do you need to see Harry you only stay inside the six yard line the pitch talk is just cop that's all you're doing oh yeah because they were not here team that's all it is they're just scared we yeah we just saw the girl man and we're talking about heat what we

dealing yeah all right my other who's back was uh Caitlyn Clark because now people are saying she's washed there's been so much Caitlyn Clark discourse this year so much it's great I can't even keep up with it anymore like shit is she a problem is she coach killer they're saying that her new

“coach is uh not playing door strengths and uh I think she's been in a shooting slump put that happens”

hmm yeah it's nuts uh also people being like oh you you know they're not talking about it the same way I mean the NBA founders are still going on I would imagine and we have the World Cup like WMBA does shine when other sports aren't happening where is the fever are they in the playoffs fever are oh I didn't know wait are there the eight seed right now it's a play up and started today the Portland fire when does that team well even five WMBA teams okay Portland fire the

Las Vegas is Los Angeles sports the Las Vegas the links the sun the Chicago sky I just did something so just so everyone knows so when Hank said name five teams max covered up our computer screen back here I thought so that we couldn't see yeah oh my stupid stupid well if I already know existed but good good for them was that new that's gotta be new right Dallas wings and let it dream we go on it on New York Liberty the Golden Save Valkyries Toronto tempo is out of

new one they they sound new they looked new so Dallas wings that's the discord so I told you

stuff that Caitlin Clark has had to deal with that I think some of it's outside of her control but now

“like you're starting to see the edits of Caitlin Clark like yelling at coaches it's yeah it's me”

becoming a problem it's getting me yeah yeah out there yep she's getting the other side of the internet right now it's getting me it's getting me um yeah so good for well actually no not good for anyway I don't even know yeah no I don't think it's healthy for anybody to think about this no oh also who's back uh Golden tempo one the the Belmont yep really sucks really sucks that we didn't get a chance in a triple crown good horse good horse my princess princess improves should we boss yeah should

alright go ahead all right you're the one who found Victor Wemben Yamma yes okay you had literally

“no one had heard of him i do love when when you're when your co-hosts on hoop collective”

busher balls about that but you know Wemby very well you early as you covered him um are the spur screwed is Wemby is Wemby's screwed because this has been a bad first two games the NBA finals for him yeah I mean his stats are okay and he you know he you know he he he had a pretty good second half in in game two and you know most of what he started making jumpers but he doesn't have the same energy level i don't think as he had in the conference finals

and look here's what i'm gonna say i'm gonna i'm just gonna be for you accused me of of

hedging i'm gonna announce that i'm hedging okay okay does that i don't know if that doesn't anything fair but i'm gonna announce this as a hedge the nicks look very i was with the nicks at their practice today and their media session i watch some of their practice they look very focused there is no you definitely can tell i don't know if it's brunston who's at the tone or if it's the all the villain over guys but you can tell whoever in their face about you know

jobs not done et cetera it's getting through because i don't pick up a hint of drop off at all i'm seeing the i'm seeing a very very focused team okay now here's the other side of the fence i don't think the series is over and i'm seeing a lot of my colleagues and and you know saying that this series isn't going back to sand and tonio we would ever say something like that and i just don't think it's over like and you know if the nicks play another great game on monday night

“and they go three oh obviously no one's coming back from that but i think this the spurs are still”

alive it is a two games both games but the spurs had the lead with less than two minutes to go and they lost them and you know i have i have seen playoff series in this situation where the team goes back home and the home team is like you know we've we've broken you and we're going to win by thirty now but i have seen the opposite and so all i will say is i see no signs of the nicks being over confident but i am not ready to declare that this is uh is that this is put to bed yet

so that's that's that's my viewpoint sorry if it's not more hot takey how much of the uh of the

blame would you assign to Mitch Johnson for the first two losses yeah um he he's touching buttons

that aren't really working and he's he's also playing a key player who's playing through an injury dear and fox playing through an injury and um he's your franchise pointguard he's making a max contract and you know because i know there's a lot of like well you know you gotta play Dylan Harper more they use the three guard rotation throughout the year they won 62 games and got to the finals so it's very hard to tell a young coach sit sit your point guard down sit him

down and then he played great in game too um but he's he's he's he's doing some rotations and touching some buttons that that aren't that aren't really working whereas Mike Brown everybody he puts on the court was like playing awesome late look landry shammots

having the best two weeks of his career yeah no he's got a minimum player yeah he's been incredible

did he was there any so after game two and and and and the situation where Wemby throws it off Steph castles back i i said in the moment and we just taped some of our show but that was a moment to me that Mitch Johnson should have called the time on before that even happened and i know like you want a transition bucket you can maybe get one easy but it's like hey the worst happens you go to overtime you call time out you gear best play you hunt your best match up your young

team get everyone settled like hey guys this is a moment we got to just you know find her but but instead you see what happens and it's it you know there's a miscommunication and then a quick foul of Jalen Branson that that was also the unfortunate part that Wemby just immediately fouled him um we're in a tie game it's kind of all fell apart there i was in shock that when that play went down i had a hard time processing it in real time that not only did they turn it over

but they turned it over with the you know just bone headed play and that victor immediately fouled

“i mean um so problem is that i think Mitch kind of liked the line up that he had on the court”

yeah and you know cat your right of course you're right you know there's a there's a strong

out you you get your personal in and you set up your play you absolutely correct but i don't think

it's like a catastrophic decision right you know it looks bad obviously but you know i will listen to fill philosophies of coaches who talk about being able to start on on a break and you know the spurs might even have dad i know the spurs really like it the offense that they can run when windbanyama's trailing they i mean it's one of the things they they they they want their guys to go out and run after windbanyama rebound and they go and they have like offensive triggers

that they can go into and then like they can downshift and toss to windbanyama when he's trailing and there is a whole bunch of highlights that you've seen this year yeah or windbanyama will hit a

trail three or um drive just go coast to coast you know given go it and go coast to coast and go

down slam and in fact the shot in game one of the west finals when he hit that 30 footer yeah that was a similar type play where they ran um off of a miss when banyama is trailing the play and he hits he walks into the three yeah yeah it's a good point it's a good point that you're right like there's that that is an offense and that's kind of how they got back in the game too you know

“running transition and and and not because the next are really good defensively i think that's”

a part of the series that is kind of getting underrated is that they're just they're able to to defend everything the spurs kind of thrown at him and cat has been just phenomenal in that respect well so the looking at the game so cat was dot was dominating right was dominating again there was actually a pretty interesting moment in the in the press conference today uh cat was up there and um so the NBA every year they have they bring in you know three or four rookies guys who

were at the end of their rookie season um actually in in San Antonio was draft picks um let's see their um Caleb Wilson was there and Kingston Fleming's but oh their queen was there but um they brought in Jeremiah fears today from the pelicans and they do this thing where they have them ask questions in the press conference and sometimes it's you know kind of hokey and you know whatever but over the years sometimes there's the players who are on the podium will get a give a good answer

you know and that happened today um fear's asked Carl Towns kind of a a basic question which was like you know how did you become the best shooting big man you know in the NBA and Carl Towns gave kind of like a beat your chest answer he was like you know then and I'm surm I'm summarizing it please don't take this exact word for word but he was something like um you know a lot of people when I was younger told me that I shouldn't play this way shouldn't shoot threes and then

of those people are around now and some of them are going to be around and and think that they're congratulating me but they weren't really a part of this you know it was kind of like you know wow like you know take that critics right you know only only he knows who was talking about you know but

“I think he was thinking about a couple of people um and I was just like wow like Carl like you know”

he's he's screaming you know whatever I can't remember what a yell but he's going off the court they can't effing guard me or whatever he said um and I was like wow Carl Towns is like you know as uh as LeBron used to say when a player was on a hot streak on the core LeBron White would yell from the bench him he feel his self mm-hmm and you know Carl Towns was feeling himself but I'm gonna tell you that that game got sideways that game too got sideways when

Towns got two fouls called on him in like 30 seconds yeah um both by the same official and and one of the calls was shaky maybe the Nick's fans would argue both the calls were shaky

Towns goes out of the game and that's spot and Town he was never quite the same when you know

he it ruined his rhythm and that's when when Banyama started making shots now he was now you could argue he was making jumpers um and that like it wouldn't have mattered whether Towns is out there and now you just started getting hot from the outside but like you can go back and look when Towns goes out of the game with those two fouls in the in the like late third early fourth something like that the whole game changed and so Towns is playing amazing but I'm gonna tell you what

really made a difference I feel was the and and it this sounds like such you know bottom feet of level baseline analysis to just say this the the spurs couldn't get me freaking rebalance

“yeah and and I think three different times in the second half of game two I think three different”

times the Nick's got an offensive rebound hit a three I mean that is just back breaking and you know one point game and um that's why like um today like the spurs play after game won the spurs players

fine today they were saying we're playing better we're not getting anything out of it and I know

because you're getting stops and they're giving up three pointers and I just think of like patrily you know the older I get the more I see the more I appreciate what David Stern and Patrily and Phil Jackson would say patrily has this statement it's it's a it's a again it's an elementary evaluation of basketball no rebounds no rinks mm-hmm if the spurs just get some rebounds they win that game yeah yeah and so yeah all of those things are contributing here yeah um I

heard a rumor when he maybe you can confirm or tonight you are the Wimby Whisper that Victor Wim in Yam is working on a skyhook and he hasn't unveiled it yet is that true I haven't seen that when why would he need it it be unblockable well he doesn't need some little post moves it does feel like this is a part of the and and this is not a knock on him because again he's in the NBA finals is 22 years old you could see that there's part of

we it's much we want to be a finished product there's parts of his game where it's like once this gets better then you're talking about a different different level

“pft you could be right I haven't seen it okay what's the amazing secret he's not”

letting anybody see it it's like the way that project right like you think like in the movie about women yama's career like you know in ten years that like he's with the monks yeah and like he said like a hard day with the monks and he's like you know he goes out back of the you know the monastery I don't know what you call it in China and he sees like this you know this monk or this like you know it's old Chinese guy shooting skyhooks

can't you just see the framing oh I know I'm going to write it differently I'm going to have

to be that you went when you first met him he was you know you were just let's just say you're

standing you're doing an interview in his house and his mom makes you something and then you roll up a paper towel and you go windy and do a skyhook and he says you just say when be your windy and then he learn the way the skyhooks become a major problem at ESPN like everybody in their brother is stumbling over it like I can give you a list I can do this guys all the time yeah it's true I know we're having the the guy from the spurs on part of my take the day the first

week that I that I met Victor I ended up in a car with him we were riding to a Italian restaurant he loves very French of him he loves truffles and there's this one Italian restaurant really close to where he was living at the time where you could where you could get truffle pizza and truffle pasta and I don't know if there was a sum truffle in season he's like we got to go there and his agent was driving and I was sitting in the back we're in a we're in a range rover okay

“and I felt so bad for Victor because you should have seen even sitting in a range rover”

like what his what he had to do to get his legs in that car yeah you know and I mean obviously I've been in cars with very top people before but this was an extreme situation yeah and I remember saying Victor when you get to the US you know you've got to discover you know an escalated yeah a navigator like you know we can do I know I know that range rover is a beautiful car but I'm like we we have the power we have the ability to to get you with your legs out a little bit more

buddy you know because he had barely been to the United States yeah we do cars big all right so I got a question about Wendy because you know him a little bit so when he says something like you know I'm not worried at all or I you know I'm embracing this moment down you know O2 is he is that sincere Wemby or is it he is so smart and studied the game for so long that he almost knows like that's what you're supposed to say if you're gonna be a Kobe or LeBron MJ one of

these killers because I can't even fully understand which one is which I think it's both okay I think he knows we're supposed to say but I also think he's pretty honest and this is one of the things about Victor the more people are gonna see he's pretty honest I mean he says pretty borderline arrogant to full blown arrogant stuff and press conference is all the time

right when he first came to the U.S. he gives his first press conference I'm talking about when he

played that game when he was you know in his sort of gap year when he was waiting to get drafted he played against Scoot Henderson with the G league at night he came over with his team and they

“played in Vegas remember that and they're they're like in the lead up to the first game and he's like”

yes Scoot Henderson would have been the number one pick but he if it's unfortunately he was born

it doesn't come off his smack talk and you think about and you're like damn he just really

“said some trash so he's not afraid to be like super honest so I take what he says mostly for the”

truth okay so I do think he feels that way and I do think like yeah he says I should be the MVP you know all these things like he says how he feels so I'm not taking a face value okay can we switch gears real quick and talk a little yannis because I saw that you had some some comments about yannis and the rumor out there that maybe the Celtics might be interested in and you don't think that that's the case right now correct well I just when it comes to this is the same thing

with LeBron I see a lot of people jumping to step four okay and I get it like that's that's

what's fun about being a fan like I'm not saying don't do it but like like people are jumping

to like LeBron taking the minimum from somebody now I'm like okay that I guess it's under the the realm of possibility LeBron could do it but like steps one two and three have to happen and when it comes to you know the idea that the Celtics would be interested in yannis before there's any yannis boss in conversation you gotta know that yannis wants to resign with the Celtics he's got one year on his contract you are not paying like let's forget about the

concept of whether the Celtics would be better if they traded jail and Brown for yannis let's let's put that debate aside yannis has to say I want to be a Celtic because he's got one year on his contract jail and Brown's under contract for like three more years you're not going to take a player who's won you a championship was under contract three more years and trade him plus potentially other stuff for a player who's not committed so first thing first does yannis want

to be with your team okay if that's a yes then you proceed on to the idea of like well you know by the way I'm not zooming past that a team is ready every team in the league is ready to

sign yannis to a four year two hundred eighty million dollar extension probably there are a lot

of them if he gets traded probably the team that trades form is prepared to do that but this guy's been really injured a lot in the last three years and he's in his 30s I would probably do it but I'm just saying like I'm not a hundred percent certain that the Celtics feel that way

“if we're done to your head got your head so you have to answer this question yeah where's he”

playing next year I think I think Miami is a strong contenter to trade for him at this moment I think there are some other teams that are can and will make compelling offers leading up to the draft but I think yannis that's a place where I think yannis wants to play and I think that's a place where they would sign them so they satisfy you know and they want to trade for them like these are three check box check box I can put in the Miami ledger okay I think there's

some other teams that would like to get there to that point I don't think Miami can make the best offer you know and you know the people and the folks some of the folks in Miami think that they can make the best offer you know that's a debate and nobody will know all the offers except for the people in the box front I'll spell say this look at the Jimmy has them owns the Cleveland Browns okay I don't know anything about the player I don't know I don't know anything about the

player that he just traded for with Miles Garrett but I know that they traded for draft compensation and a player who can help them immediately who's under contract it would seem to me that he would have the same standard for a yannis trade and it's it's it's not clean because he's only a part owner you know you have the general manager you have what yannis potentially would want you have the other owner West Eden's who technically has the governor ship right now but like that trade

that he made okay with Miles Garrett you think about this they got nine years out of them okay the team is no longer a contender with them okay he is still in his prime they flip him for a guy who

“is younger under control and significant draft compensation right yannis is in his 30s he's I think”

he and Miles Garrett there may be like almost the same age they may be out by a year off right that is I think the kind of return that he would want the same type of package so and I think the fact that Jimmy has made that trade with the browns kind of gives you an idea of what he thinks

I do know because I'm a browns fan and I don't think the bucks are contenders next year yeah and so turn to the diners for black party I don't know enough about I don't you that may be a great comparison I don't know enough about you could be joking on it goes over my head I don't know who's the Sean Watson this would this be like the buck signing Terry Rose here hey I am being told that the Sean Watson is ready for a comeback you have two quarterback careful with the thing you have

two quarterbacks top one can said you got a guess which two but you have two he said that wait you said something there though those interesting you so you don't think LeBron is going to sign event minimum with Cleveland I mean it's not impossible but the idea that that is where he's at right now I you know it could happen I still have not heard definitively LeBron's playing next year

“hmm now is he probably gonna play like if you said to me you have to make a projection right now”

I would say I think he's gonna play but like people have got him in a minimum with the calves and starting opening night and I I'm not even sure he's playing okay let's say he decides to play fine now is he gonna sign with the lakers all right can they work out a deal can the lakers work out a deal where they retain LeBron but they also get him into a salary that is you know because the thing about LeBron is the lakers to a sum extent will be bidding against themselves right because the

teams that have salary calf space you know Chicago Brooklyn you know Detroit I guess Detroit it doesn't make sense for those teams right so the if if the lakers are like bidding like

way up 25 30 million they are in fact bidding against themselves I don't think any but they're not

“like trying to be the competing offer at the same time LeBron was on all them be a player this year”

and he's also a at all time legend and Jerry Bus set the standard for the lakers it's you treat your legendary players well so that you can get more legendary players this is a cornerstone of the lakers business operations and Jeannie Bus has picked that up so do you really want LeBron to walk out the door disgruntled because you're trying to get the best deal and not did against yourself because let's say you do let him walk what's your plan in free agency like there isn't

you know LeBron 2010 isn't there you know you're not trading out LeBron 2026 for LeBron 2010 right like you know so I believe that the LeBron and the lakers can probably come to terms on an agreement that will help them that will get them both in a good place but it could get a little bit rocky because the the lakers would essentially probably be bidding against themselves okay let's say you get past that let's say you get LeBron's gonna play okay check that box

and you get to the port where LeBron and the lakers can't come to terms and I'm not ready I'm not ready for that yet I am not ready to say that that was going to happen I still think that that is most likely 51% or whatever not guaranteed but most likely okay now let's say you've now checked that box and I see people setting land speed records running past that like it's

“no big deal then you have to say okay LeBron's gonna leave in free agency is going to take a”

pay cut how much pay cut is he willing to take because he's making 55 million and made all in

BA okay and you know the minimum is 3 million and people say well the guys a billionaire like what's the difference to him whether he takes 3 million or 55 million cool if you want to spend 50 million his dollars you can do that and we may get to to June 10th or you know June 18th and I might be told LeBron is in fact willing to play for the minimum and if that's the case then we're gonna have a different conversation I have not been told that maybe he's made that

decision maybe other reporters maybe Shoms knows right now that LeBron's won't to play for them him I haven't heard that I'm not gonna tell you that I know everything I haven't heard it but that's a big gap to make and by the way in between that is well what if he would

play for another amount of money like 15 million which is what the mid-level exception is

which a team like you know a team like Golden State could potentially get there if they do some things if they make some decisions they could potentially get there there's just a ton of check of places to check mark but if you ask me on the stand can the Bron play for the calves for the minimum sure it's not against the law it could it could happen but there's a lot

whatever you heard regarding Anthony Edwards after after these playoffs is he he's still in a good

“space with Minnesota I think we have to see what Minnesota wants to do what they do with their roster”

you know Minnesota was trying to trade for Yanis at the deadline okay so they ended up having a pretty good playoff run you know they've won five playoffs years last three years I don't think you know I think yeah I think aunt misses cat because the double teams that now come his way they really annoy him you can tell it really gets under his skin but the double teams and they those double teams didn't come as frequently when he was playing with the guy who could kill you

from the outside like that and so the you know if I were aunt Edwards I'd be like because you know one of the reasons they traded and that not one of the main reason they traded

them was to get out of the second apron it wasn't even so much I mean they saved money absolutely

but they had to get out of the second apron and if I was in Edwards I'd be like well Julian Brunson has Carl Towns and they ain't in the second apron you know and you know Brunson and Towns are thriving together and I mean ants like you know what's going on here but they want they were trying to get young at the deadline and last year at the deadline they were trying to get Kevin Durant so we know that the timber wolves are trying to get superstar players you know they're

“trying that's what their actions are telling us so they haven't gotten them yet and they've done a”

good job with the talent they have considering their injuries um so I let's see what happens this summer I you know aunt has multiple years left on his contract he's not at the place and I have not heard you know I know maybe other people have heard something again I'm not I don't have the market corner on all intelligence I have not heard that Anne is anything but dedicated to the timber wolves but I do know the timber wolves feel on level of pressure to improve their

roster I know this because they tried to trade for Durant and they tried to trade for Janice and they may be trying to trade for Janice again so let's see what the wolves are at the end of the summer um Wendy we didn't have you on before the playoffs how did the hotel reservations go what were the what were the ones you made did you get him right yeah so I canceled 10 hotel reservations I hadn't Boston I took a photo I took a photo of my inbox when I canceled all

“it because you know you don't know whether you have to have them for the different dates right you know”

like you don't just make one for two weeks the finals can be all kinds of different dates they could be the home team they could be the road team the finals could move a little bit um I had to cancel 10 because I had it for the conference finals and finals okay so I had egg all over my face on Boston um I made um I made reservations and Oklahoma City in San Antonio I made Oklahoma City reservations like in November and guys I had such a crazy rate in Oklahoma City I literally was

gonna pay like $107 and I I mean ESPN pays but yeah I was gonna bring down our whole average as a company I had this hotel for $107 a night I mean like if you wouldn't booked it like during the West college finals it was like 350 yeah I scored this incredible deal that was you know

gonna make a significant difference on ESPN's bottom line which they were never gonna say anything

but uh I broke my heart to cancel those uh great reservations but I also made reservations in San Antonio okay I made them like in there was some moment in January of February why I said victor's victor's ready and I so those were the three that I had going into the playoffs oh you didn't have the nicks I did not have the nicks why and I and I never made them in Cleveland even though I was in Cleveland my hometown uh for the conference finals uh you know I never made

them in Cleveland I'm sorry to say to the calves fans um wait what kind of rate did you get for the nicks yeah you gotta be the best it's bad it's bad it's really bad and you know there's the the world cup if there is a game six um you're sleeping on the streets yeah it's it's I mean it's going to be bad we're gonna be sleeping in Jersey and I think I might have to walk through the tunnel you know they're not letting they're not letting cars and the the bar stool in New York

offices on is literally like a stone's throw from Madison Square Garden you can sleep on a couch

uh in let's just shower there too let's negotiate that one's on the house yeah amazing you know

like all you have to do just be on pick central before you go over to the MSG just a one live show

demolished fillet and I mean so I you know I admit I was not on the the nicks I did not see the

“nicks making this run that that's the craziest part about this is like I I think everyone thought”

the east was you know oh we why won't knew the east was weaker than the west going into the playoffs just in terms of the talent at the top but there weren't a lot of people who are like this next team is going to just steam roll everyone and they have steam roll everyone it is one of the greatest runs we've seen in like envy if they've finished this job especially if they finish it in the next two games it will be one of the greatest runs we've ever seen in terms of team basketball

is there a person on this planet who if if 45 days ago when they were down to one to the Hawks and I'm talking about Carl Towns' father or Carl Towns himself or the biggest Carl Towns fan in the Northeast if I um told them 45 days ago that number one the nicks would not lose

“for 45 days they would be like oh did they lose the next you know did they that's a four”

fifth is like you know why they out is that why they haven't lost right um that the nicks would not lose for 45 days and the Carl Towns would dominate Victor Wembanyama to such a degree that he was saying they can't do any anything with me or whatever he said coming off the court and he was a strong candidate to be the finals MVP two games under the files was there anybody who would have genuinely believed that that was true no like I don't think so I'm you know like

like you know in their heart of hearts if anybody would have said that it's so it's a really unpredictable yeah it's right and what do you think it what's the biggest change that you've noticed with cat's defense because he is playing defense now what was there a moment where you said oh he's figured

something out so first off this is the thing and this again sounds like elementary analysis

cat is very big yes you know and when you have size you know it makes a difference you know there's so you know there's the thunder and other teams have tried to use smaller players on women

“yam but when I watched him play in France when he was 18 that's what the teams by the second time”

around you know they play the you know round robin in the French league by the second time around the league that's what they had gone to they started playing their strongest big their strongest forward they gave up trying to play centers on them and they just put like the strong power for it on them and that's happened in the NBA teams are just trying to put like they're strongest you know forward on them whether that's Julius Randall or Alex Caruso and and so when the when the

series started we're like okay is it going to are they going to go with Anna noby out of the gate

are they going to try Josh Hart and here comes Carl Towns from the first possession not like okay

Anna noby has two fouls Josh Hart's exhausted mr. Robinson you know it's hack a Mitch time get him out of the court nope he was on the game plan because the next coaching staff believed that he could do it because they watched him and they studied him and they said hey listen and the games he's played against cat or against town or against the victor he's held his own and part of it is he's just got really good size and he can move his feet a little bit I mean he's not going to confuse you

for like a defensive player of the year he's not out there like go bare but he can move his feet a little bit and he's long and victor can't get past him and he's avoided stupid fouls he got the two fouls real quick but I'm going to pick him a pass on that in game two because I'm feel like one of them was really questionable but he's avoided stupid fouls he's been fine with physical play and he's just at times he's just shove and victor out of the way like there's a rebound

company is like no you're not getting it yeah and he won't get to the other night against against victor the Nick I know it's crazy it's like this is a level of effort that we haven't even thought about seeing from from cat over the entire the coaches knew what didn't believe that him and put him in that position yeah so he he sounds like a different guy yeah his his entire demeanor is different and like the confidence he was talking about today he was talking to Jeremiah

fears he was basically like all the people that bad mouth me and whatever like they don't get to

celebrate this chapter with me he was like talking about like somebody who truly had arrived

I remember you know the day he was drafted I did an interview with him for ESPN like a sit down

“interview with Minneapolis and you know I've you know I've done feature stories on him and stuff”

and I've covered him at the world cup when he's played for the Dominican and he talked about all that stuff like this is a completely different Carl towns and I'm seeing on the court and I'm hearing talk about the game I'm very happy for him yeah because he is someone who gets blind for stupid reasons a lot of times he becomes you know internet joke and it's it's really cool that he's having these moments in the way he's talking about the game and his mom after the game

it's cool it just say like these are why we watch sports like these type of redemption are could I just say I mean the internet you can yeah in game one he was doing this interview the game it just ended and he's talking about like this real deep philosophical stuff about you know how his mother was looking down on him yeah and like little he's still sweating yeah he didn't say this two days later like he's like he's like his mental space is very aligned too yeah I don't know it's

“so I you know sometimes you hear the phrase put it all together maybe that's what we're seeing”

here it feels that way um Wendy what what type of sunglasses you wear um I had Maui gyms for a couple years and I recently broke them okay and a stupid way I slant my cardor on them so I bought two or three very cheap pairs off of Amazon I think they're $20 I don't even know the brand your serving looks in the same studio he the hair was going the glasses were going you were you like I think a lot of guys look at you like damn that guy's he's got everything give

my man some shady rays yeah yeah yeah so listen we I know you guys have done a lot of shows like out in the you know what you go on the road during football season and it's like still hot it's like I don't know what kind of stuff you got taken care of but like the crew that we had the San Antonio

“was prepared we had you couldn't see it we had air conditioning ducks oh we don't get that”

that we're shooting I mean it wasn't like cold air but it was like chill there up at us you couldn't even see I wasn't even sweat oh wow I was like I got soft as when this sounds like you know some a list type stuff here I know this is that I got the the macafee treatment I got the Steven A treatment like we had the we had like what Chris Burman would have like we got the

cream treatment yeah I'd never had such effort been done to make sure I was comfortable and so

I was up I mean it was hot as hell and we had great fans there out of all the outdoor shows we've ever done or the finals over the years the fans in San Antonio with the best fans and there were Nick's fans there too and the and the sides were getting along maybe because it was early in the series but man I I was fine like you know you know perk was up there sweat and I don't know maybe maybe the maybe they didn't hook him up maybe he wasn't getting it going on it's head I was

I had a cool drink I could have sat there all day perk run top yeah what do you think Steven A has in store for us with the series go back to New York is he is this is he going to be humble as he keeping his head down see just like one game at a time or do you think he's he's ready to start the parade he's trying to maintain his composure because what you if you're around Steven A at all you will see that when the cameras turn off he's still very much like the

guy you see on TV now obviously turns up a little bit and I'm not saying if you wake him up at three in the morning he's going to be like that but he after game one he did Scott Vampel I could see him holding it in on Vampel he did not want to go crazy he did Vampel and he got off the air and he so he's you know no one was seeing this and he just came to me and he grabs my jacket and he goes three more he was almost like vibrated he was like three more like it is his next fandom is not an act

like he may amplify it obviously to a certain extent for a television audience to be entertaining but his core fandom is there I've watched it yeah and so he is he is trying to maintain his composure I don't know what's going to happen if they win two more games it's it's it's going to be a scene I'm excited for for tonight watching at MSG all right when do you hear the best I got one last

question if you rollback question RHO BACK dot com promo code take 20% off your first purchase

Qs is polo so these joggers shorts a row back dot com promo code take again listen to the hook collective

agency everything he's going to have us tuned in for all that zacked you have a question for windy we have

“two massive nicks fans in our booth zackin memes zack memes if you got a question too you can throw”

one out there you guys you boys got a question for windy how are doing the day sir I'm doing great you don't tell me sir my god he calls us sir too every day it was curious a little bit earlier in the interview spoke to being around this next team here recently just as of you are from home watching

the games I've never really seen a team across any sports or any sport play with such unity

that I'm seeing on the court with the nicks like the togetherness that you can feel when they're out there playing like one guy is kind of down not doing the best they're they're right there picking them back up in vice versa and I was just wondering if you could speak to kind of how that's been to see up close yeah so I spent a week with the nicks in Abu Dhabi back in October I went there they had like a you know they played two games there fili was there too and I spent

“that week with them and they were they were very confident about this season they like I think”

they genuinely believe they could do this from from day one and so did their like so did Jim Dolan like Jim Dolan like whatever level the yawnest trade was offered I know there's all this playing with language and I know that the the the bucks have had like one foot in and one foot out and yawnest is the same whatever but the phone call was made the conversation was had and they were like no were good were good okay and they didn't change their roster at all from last year I mean

they you know they added like some guys to the edge like shaman or whatever but it's the same team because they blew because like I think I see these teams lose in the in the playoffs and then you inevitably get like well they've got to make big changes and like the nicks were like no we believe in this team and so number one how many playoff series is this core play together they've played like I don't know probably you know over the last two years it's been seven playoff series like

the year before maybe it was like they've had like nine or ten playoff series of this core together you that's that's your 10,000 hours you go through like three or four seasons and like nine playoff

series highs and lows and the organization like spoke to them and it was basically like we trust all of

you we believe in all of you this team and like from day one like they didn't care what seed they were like obviously if they were this fighting for the six seed we'd have had a problem but like they didn't care they were the three seed all they cared about was like getting healthy and getting their games to where they wanted to go and the other thing is this crowd this garden crowd they love this team like the garden crowd is is obviously typically boisterous but typically

very cynical this crowd loved this team they love this team like they're the 94 next we regardless what happens in this series 20 years from now you're going to be seeing Josh Hart McHale Bridges, Jalen Branson, Mitchell Robinson, sitting courtside because the fans love this team and there's a real there's there's a real unity that comes along with that now you watch them play there's a discipline when they drive the ball five times in the same possession and keep kicking it out

I mean that's coaching that's you know togetherness that's discipline but like it didn't just happen

overnight like this is a thing that you know people try to steal things from other teams they never

nobody ever wants to steal patience they want to steal the player they want to steal a coach they want to steal executive nobody ever wants to steal patience because patience is hard it's it's slow

“well that's what this team's had they've had patience and you know what you look under the”

hood a little bit you look at Leon Rose and I'm just telling you I'm not close to Leon Rose in case like anybody thinks some carbon form like he used to be LeBron's agent I would see him all all year long he doesn't he kept the media at arms like maybe he talked to some media members I mean we have a cordial relationship you know he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he he sort of works in silence Leon Rose put together the the the big three in Miami now I know

Pat Riley played a role and obviously LeBron Dwayne and Bosch had to get together and do it but Leon Rose organized that he he was with CAA he got all of them to agree to contracts there were the same lengthy got them all on the same page he like sent all that up like that was like like he was his hand was on the steering wheel of that move and now look at this he's on the steering wheel his hands on the steering wheel of potentially breaking this long I mean obviously the players

have to do it and Brunsett has to be great I'm not saying but like look at this badass yeah

much side by side this is another guy it works in the next front office his name's Brock Aller

“nobody knows what he looks like he doesn't want anybody know what he looks like okay Brock Aller”

was in the calves he was the calves head of strategy and cat management when they put the team together that build that championship obviously I know the Brun James was the one who won that championship and the Brun called Kevin Love and said Kevin please come to come with me and that that was like I don't want to make it sound like it was but they did like 10 different

creative weird ass revolutionary moves to put that team together and he helped break the 50

three or 54 year drought in Cleveland without championship now he's here okay and Leon Rose hired him because he was a bronze agent and he saw how he worked he was like this guy's a killer that nobody knows about he hired him here and all these nicks maneuvers like the nicks made like three or four underground like stealth moves to get the calf space to sign jail and Brunson

“the the maverick didn't even think that he was going to New York because they didn't have the”

calf space right like they're like they can't get him and if they want to get him they got a call us to do a sign and trade we're not doing it all of a sudden smoke and mirrors came out and the nicks popped out on the other end with enough calf space and the maverick's like whoa how they do that and the Carl towns trade go look at it that was some wild ass wizardry to do the Carl towns trade and keep them under the second apron anyway what I'm saying to you is all of these

guys on the nicks are deeply deeply invested I'm like a five year plan and all of them have like done a great job whether it's Josh Hart whether it's bridges whether it's Brunson

all of them done a great job so there's this really incredible franchise alignment that's

coming together and they get two more wins and they all get rings sometimes your franchise comes together and and you don't get rings and you all get fire that that happens more often than that but you talk about together and it's this because all of these guys are masters at what they do whether it's Josh Hart getting rebounds or Mitch Robinson being the you know the goon off the bench whether it's Jalen Brunson as the clutch guy whether it's the stretch five of Carl towns

whether it's the coach whether it's the GM whether it's the strategy guy they're all really good at what they do they've all been they've all got years combined into them I know them fill a bustling here and they all get it aligned and they all play they all do their best at the exact same time in a way it's kind of beautiful and the city here in New York is absolutely in love with it and people are saying to me like don't you think it's gonna be crazy inside the garden Monday night

it's gonna be crazy in the city when I saw the videos when the game ended like people who were over in Jersey and they could hear the city reacting to the next winning like you see videos like in you know Buenos Aires or Paris when like PSG scores or Argentina scores and you hear the city react that is how New York is being right now the special thing happening in New York isn't just in the garden it's in the city and they all love these guys and they're all playing and they're

doing their jobs in the best it's kind of beautiful in a way and it's not something that we normally see from the nicks and it's not something we normally see from like a big city normally this is a small

“town thing yeah so that's what's all happening right now it is beautiful it's not kind of beautiful”

it's why we watch sports like you know the community and everyone coming together it's awesome memes do you have a question uh you just fired me up I say in that uh can you hear how far it up memes is right over here uh I have a question about your career uh what is the Mount Rushmore finals that you've covered oh okay great question great question memes man why did I do this on my own podcast yeah

um all right well 2016 2016 was the most amazing year of my career because you have to understand

Kobe is retiring and he goes on that tour where like every stop the players or you know are washing his feet you know and like it's just amazing and they has the 60 point game to end it you know mama out iconic moment uh the Warriors win 73 and we see them do that chase during the year conference finals game six clay Warriors are down three one come back and win finals casual down three one come back win Cleveland this is for you even though all those seven games like

five of them were not close um and like I have like no recollection of anything that actually happened in like game three um 2016 definitely on Mount Rushmore yeah um um heat spurs 2013 the Ray Allen shot um and then really an under you know people all remember

game seven was a tremendously highly contested well played game where LeBron hit a couple of enormous shots done in the such that game to seal that championship is that the one that was other game that Duncan missed the the hook shot buddy yeah Duncan misses the bunny and LeBron comes down with one second on the shot clock and hits the shot that puts him goes from two to four to basically ice it you know one of the biggest shots LeBron's career that you know when

people say what did the highest LeBron's career they never mentioned that was like oh well he just

made like a a gigantic clutch jumper to win a championship like why would that be on your list but so that was and that was a little bit different that was a two three two series the situation was different you know um San Antonio came back to Miami up three two of Miami won the last two games

“so I think it was like the sort of convince them to change it quite frankly so that's um that's”

there I guess I would put last year is up there I mean a seven game finals last year where Indiana like steals game one and you know you know has a master of full performance in game six to force a game seven you know any any seven game finals you know is is up there and then let me think the fourth one I you know the finals with the Celtics and the Warriors the Warriors were down in that series two one and the Celtics were looking very strong and in TD Garden in game four

Steph puts up 40 which is my second favorite Steph moment after the Olympics which will you know is on my Mount Rushmore the the two great experiences I've ever had a covering a game were 2016 game seven where nobody could score for 15 minutes and the block in the in the shot and what

“have you um and the second one was watching Curry throw in four threes or whatever and that fourth”

quarter in Paris and literally break the French heart um and you know seeing him run down the cord and and give the night night while Carmella was jumping 15 feet in the air you know as you ran past the you know the American players um you know that's up there too I mean I don't know if I can put sneak that on my Mount Rushmore but that series where the because that Warriors team you obviously had won the three titles and then they crashed their team all the way down rebuilt it

and came back up with sort of a differently structured team and be the team in Boston there was a championship level team that was he came back later and won you know one two years later but to see Steph score 40 in the garden and then come back and close them out there the you know the you know the

“the cream of the crop moment I really think that was the you know the real jewel of the”

Warriors run they obviously you know had three other championships but that one in 2022 we just met so much more to them so I would I would think I would sneak that on there but I reserved the right to say that I forgot a certain series and I could just say that you creatively edited it out and you screwed me yeah it was a great answer um Wendy you're the best also next time you come Chicago please tell us you were here for a couple days for for the for the draft

lottery I was I would love to do I was there for like 20 hours okay I love Chicago especially in the spring I have great memories of covering calves, bowls and peat bowls playoff series

as you guys know it is amazing in the spring nearly summer it's like Toronto like being in Chicago

and Toronto in June is unbelievable um but the bowls have to keep up there under the bargain yeah I haven't been there for bowls for a while but um be I next time I'm in Chicago I'll let you know I'm coming okay love it Wendy you're the best enjoy game three enjoy your live show on Tuesday night I feel like Nick's fans are no longer gonna be mad at you they're too happy so uh you're you're on the good side they're mad at me because I said that I thought that the

Celtics would beat them last year yeah and you shouldn't of that was the help of you I have a question for you before I go yeah um what do you when I say the words Hammond Indiana what do you say okay uh we already we already talked about this uh I'm sorry no no it's fine I've tied it's it's just ridiculous well actually my first my first reaction to be horseshoe casino great casino great casino in Hammond Indiana spent had some actually

incredible blackjack runs at Hammond Indiana um it's just a joke the whole thing's a joke

it's insane that we're here because they're off from their way here okay yeah and um uh they're

when I was in my early twenties and I and I bought my first condo for $95,000 I bought it in

Brooke Park, Ohio where they're building the stadium and I think it's insane yeah literally nobody ever in their lives has ever said let's do something cool what are we gonna do let's go to the Cleveland Airport yeah so I'm saying that as a former resident of the city yeah and a Cleveland Browns fan and they're gonna move it off of the lakefront and they're taking it to the airport okay and I say take it to the airport I'm not saying like it's you know it's five miles from the airport

the runway is here and like a Patrick Mahomes bomb the football stadium is there it's a cross to

“street nobody they said well that's what they're where the land was well no kidding yeah now”

it's insane as it is to build a football stadium in Cleveland at the airport that the bears are two options are next you know a suburb of Madison was constant and Hammond in the Anna it's great how's going on it's it sucks it sucks I think all the new stadiums I think we're going to get to a point we've talked about this before the Brown's perfect example the bears we're gonna get to a point like 20 25 years where we're gonna look back and be like why did we

put all of our football stadiums indoors what like what what why did we do that we just took we took this element of it and we moved them all out out of their cities and the chiefs are moving and the Broncos are moving indoors the Browns are going indoors going on the airport the bears might be going to him I think it's gonna be a big regret I think we're looking back and be like why did we

“do that let's put an indoor stadium at the airport why is soldier field need replace it doesn't”

need replaced it's the bears don't own soldier field so they lease it from the city of Chicago the city of Chicago which is actually a great thing that they've done forever is that no private company can own anything east of Lakeshore Drive so basically the entire stretch of the lake is for the public which is great because you don't want it to be the entire all the lake front is just private condos for the richest people so the bears can't own a stadium there the the city owns a stadium

they lease it from the city and the pressure is coming from the NFL basically saying build the new stadium so that the bears now can be worth eight billion dollars instead of seven billion dollars it all sucks like anything in these situations the biggest loser whether be the Browns achieves

the bears the the biggest losers are always going to be the fans and the taxpayers so all right

“yeah sorry no it sucks I'm still holding out hope that they just are like this whole”

thing stupid will just stay at soldier field I know it's probably not going to happen all right all right the residents are building a beautiful stadium in the middle of the town right the FT like it's no problem they're moving back yeah so that's where they were that's where they were that's who he has who would be the leaders what happened was commanders yeah yeah well the football team you can come whatever you want but yeah they did what the bears are doing right

now is exactly what they did back in the early to mid 90s that was a terrible mistake terrible mistake they moved to a soulless dump in the middle of nowhere the the one thing they had the foresight to do they made the town change the name when the redskins moved up there now they

changed it to something stupid called raljan Maryland which was the first names of Jack Kent Cook's

sons Ralph and John so called it raljan Maryland I was told big cat that that Hammond they should change the name of the town are least where the stadium is and just called like bear country yeah like you're in bear country and you're in bear country and yeah like welcome to the cave you know like that would that would at least be a nice one this is why you're a marketing genius yeah but this is what I'm looking for to in 40 years so we're still actually doing part of my take

we'll be going back to see the cats can be looking at the uh the like architecture renderings of what the stadium's going to look like on like so drive me like all this going to be so good recording it a 4 p.m. yeah yeah yeah yeah that's totally Mike's special you guys will be like Tony and Mike and you'll do your show at 4 p.m. Mike Tony and Mike yeah yeah exactly um all right when do you're the best we love having fun and enjoy Monday night have a great week
