incoming weeks. And again, thank you
2:39
for your patience. Guys, we don't want to waste
2:41
any of your time. The NFL Draft
2:43
was tonight. NBA y'all might need to
2:45
rethink things, and when the draft is on, y'all
2:48
move y'all playoff games to
2:50
another day because I can imagine what these ratings
2:52
were like. The Chicago Bears the
2:54
worst kept secret in the draft.
2:56
The Chicago Bears selected Caleb
2:58
Williams out of the University of Southern
3:01
cal oh
3:04
cho really no surprises. Early on, Jaye
3:06
dails with three.
3:08
Marvin Harrison went for Joe Awwen.
3:11
I like this pick by the charges. We'll get into
3:13
that a little later. Elite Neighbors
3:16
goes to the jet the Giants, jac
3:18
Latham Tackle goes to Tennessee,
3:21
the Shaker, Michael Pennix Junior
3:24
going to the Atlanta Falcons.
3:26
Wait, wait, that was a shocker to you.
3:28
They just gave Kirk Cousins one hundred and fifty
3:31
million with eighty million guarantee.
3:33
That's not a shocker to you.
3:35
No, that's not a shocker to me, because they still need the quarterback
3:37
to secure their future and they don't believe in Desmond
3:40
Ritters. So obviously, listen, listen, you paid
3:42
Kirk Cousins the type of money you had, You had to overpay
3:44
for Kirk Cousins, but you still had to secure
3:46
your quarterback for the future. Because that's not Kirk Cousins,
3:49
who's coming off of Achilles, who is coming off
3:51
of Achilles injury.
3:52
Thank you.
3:52
If that's your case, Why pending that kind of
3:54
money if he's not the quarterback of your future? Why are
3:56
you paying a quarterback that's not the quarterback of your future
3:58
one hundred and fifty million?
4:00
Because you understand unk you understand
4:02
the position that they were in. As for the Falcons.
4:04
They have to pay somebody.
4:06
They don't.
4:06
There was no there was no other There was no other quarterback
4:08
to pay their quarterback. Hello, so
4:11
you have to pay for he's not your quarterback of
4:13
the future. Why not get a stop gap, a
4:17
stop gap, a filling in, knowing
4:19
that he's not gonna be long term.
4:22
They just had fillings.
4:24
Basically, they what
4:26
Kirk Cousins did.
4:29
No, no, no, Now you you know, you know Kirk Cousins
4:31
will give you what you want in the regular seasons on the quarterback
4:33
position. You know that, you know that. But
4:37
listen, you know you know what Kirk
4:39
Cousin is going to give you doing the regular season. They
4:41
gonna put up numbers offensively.
4:43
And that's that is what they
4:45
That's what they paid for. And you know they had to overpay case.
4:47
I'm ask you this, if I know what Kirk's
4:49
Cousins's gonna give me, I gave him one hundred
4:52
and eighty million. I gave him fifty million at the
4:54
time of signing. I gave him a hundred million
4:56
fully guaranteed. Why'd you have a penny if
4:58
I know what Kirk Cousin's gonna give me?
5:01
Because Penning Jr. Is the future quarterback
5:04
for he's
5:07
a feeling for right now.
5:09
So you pay one hundred and eighty million dollars for a
5:11
fill in? Yes, that's
5:13
what you have to do. That's the that's the nature of the business.
5:16
You know. You know.
5:16
Wait, let me let me tell you something. Let me know, let me tell you something.
5:18
You know what else is the nature of the business. And
5:21
it's perfect, which has always been in Kirk
5:23
cousins favor. Grace
5:25
has always been on Kirk Cousins side. Timing.
5:28
Timing is everything I get. The timing is
5:30
of the essence. And for some reason, every
5:33
time it's time for Kirk Cousins to get paid.
5:35
The timing and the strategic ways
5:37
and the way he goes about business, he's
5:39
always been on the winning side.
5:41
Understand, always been on the understand. Washington
5:43
franchising, Okay, let's see what he can do. Franchise
5:46
him again.
5:46
We bet he betting on himself, He bet ONCI.
5:48
I get Minnesota because Minnesota
5:51
said, Hey, with what we have defensively
5:53
and the skill positions we have, I like
5:55
Kirk Cousins long term, so we're gonna
5:57
give him this money. What I don't understan
6:00
saying is that you give it quarterback one
6:02
hundred and eighty million. You're given fifty
6:04
million at the time of signing, you fully guarantee
6:06
one hundred million dollars, and you take a
6:09
quarterback.
6:11
Right, So what is that telling you? That that's
6:13
telling you exactly exactly what I'm saying. They're
6:15
taking a quarterback for the reason to secure
6:17
their future. But one again, he's coming. They
6:19
gave him a hundred eighty million. They didn't have a choice,
6:23
nobody, there was nobody else. You just you
6:26
telling me in the chat that Kirk Cousin
6:28
is a stop gap. Why Fate Penn
6:30
spend one hundred and eighty million for a stop
6:33
gap? Because you know what you
6:35
get from in the regular season. They
6:37
haven't about it.
6:38
One season is a stop gap. It's
6:40
stop long term.
6:44
You're not You got to stay with me that Michael
6:47
Mike Mike is Michael
6:49
Penning Jr. Is going to
6:51
be the quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons
6:54
for ten plus years. How
6:56
much longer is Kirk Cousins going to play? No,
6:59
we're gonna allowed We're going to allow Michael
7:02
Pitting Jr. To sit behind Kirk Cousins
7:04
for a year maybe two, three,
7:07
it ain't happening. Three years
7:09
is not happening. And Michael Pitting Jr.
7:11
Is gonna learn from Kirk Cousins the same way. Patrick Mahomes
7:13
sat behind one to you,
7:16
I guarantee you it's gonna pan out just like that. I
7:18
guarantee you, Cousin.
7:19
But but Smith,
7:22
Alex Smith wasn't on one hundred
7:24
and eighty million with one hundred million guarantees.
7:26
I know, I know we can. We can't focus on the
7:28
numbers because you know, the market goes up
7:30
every every every the cap goes up every
7:32
season. Oh okay, timing at
7:35
the time and everything.
7:36
I don't have a problem with the timing, but if you
7:38
it doesn't make any sense for you to
7:40
spend this kind of money for to
7:43
usbody.
7:45
But but but the owner ownership is done.
7:47
That's why they paid it, and that's why they still drafted
7:49
the coer thing.
7:50
I mean, I'm looking and I think everybody is
7:53
is confused by this. Everybody
7:56
says that where you spend this kind of money on the quarterback
7:58
that's supposed to be your future.
8:01
No no, no, no, no no no.
8:02
So let me ask you a question, who's the future. Here's
8:04
the who's the future in Pittsburgh.
8:09
Uh, you know that is
8:11
still up in the air now. I think Russell Wilson
8:13
is going to have a good season this year. I know he's
8:15
gonna have a good seaton this year, and he's gonna go elsewhere
8:18
and get another get another starting job. I
8:21
think I would assume Justin Fields
8:23
is the answer for there. I
8:25
would assume they didn't again,
8:28
they didn't pick up the fifth year option. So
8:30
again I don't I don't know. I don't know what Tomland
8:33
and the Rooney family is thinking on that end. I'm
8:35
not sure.
8:35
I was just shrinking.
8:36
I mean, I mean, I would think if Russell
8:38
Wilson was their future, they will secure him long
8:40
term. I would assume.
8:42
But wait, wait, we we we will know if Russell
8:44
Wilson is their future depending on the
8:46
season he has this year, which I'm which I'm assuming
8:48
will be good as long as it's not against the Bengals.
8:52
Caleb Williams goes number one overall. Jane
8:54
Daniels, I mean quarterbacks.
8:55
The first three picks, we thought we would see
8:57
a run of quarterbacks six picks the first
8:59
time, and the draft lottery that we've
9:01
had six quarterbacks go in the first twelve
9:04
picks.
9:05
I don't think, but it shows
9:07
that. It goes to show you think about
9:09
it.
9:10
Here, quarterback, quarterback,
9:12
quarterback, wide receiver, O T wide
9:15
receiver, O T quarterback, wide
9:18
receiver, quarterback, uh
9:21
tackle, quarterback, tight
9:24
end. You
9:26
see you see where? You see what when you see what? Where
9:29
the league is headed offense offense off
9:31
Remember it.
9:32
Used to be a run.
9:33
You might have a quarterback and then you have a run
9:35
of defensive player trying to stop
9:37
it. Seems to me they're like, well, you know what, what
9:40
the rules, the rules of what the rules are. Let
9:43
me try to reinforce for strength.
9:45
Let me go in and build this thing up. Hey,
9:48
we got an arsenal, and you know what, let's
9:51
get some more arsenals. Let's get some more players,
9:53
Let's get some more uh heavy
9:56
artillery.
9:57
Yeah, but you know what, I think there were there was
9:59
some very good defensive players in
10:02
the draft. I don't think there were many that warranted
10:04
or were good enough to go ahead of the office
10:07
of players that were available, and
10:09
you got to think about some of the needs as some of these
10:11
teams went after. Obviously, the needs were
10:14
at the quarterback position, because everything starts from the quarterback
10:16
position before you feel any other
10:18
roster spot. And I see,
10:20
I think that the first ten, maybe
10:22
the first ten, eleven, twelve picks were
10:25
needs that those teams needed very
10:27
badly to continue to compete. And
10:30
if you want to be a contender, they did what they
10:32
needed to do.
10:32
And Field hole, Yeah, I'm
10:35
looking at Justin Field.
10:36
Say, hold on, y'all get all of a sudden, y'all
10:39
trade for Kenny william y'all get Roman Duze?
10:41
Hold on? What was this when I was there?
10:44
Yeah, for the longest time.
10:45
I didn't have nothing. I only had DJ Mark for
10:47
a year. And now y'all give this guy
10:50
Dj Moore, y'all give him, and
10:53
y'all go get a quarterback in the first round, Roman Duze.
10:55
And you who still got Cole commit? At Cole
10:57
commit?
10:58
So like, whoa, whoa? What what?
11:01
What? What about your boy?
11:03
Well, at some at some point you got to do right. At
11:05
some point you could it's
11:09
like your girl, you right about that, But at
11:12
some point you have to do right. There are a few organizations
11:15
that have to do right by that quarterback if
11:17
they want to see success. The Bears haven't done
11:19
right by that quarterback their quarterbacks
11:22
in a very very long time, very
11:24
very long time. So it's about time. And
11:26
again with that that that statement Kayler
11:28
Williams made long before it
11:31
was time for the draft. You remember,
11:33
if I got to go, if I got to go to so and so, I'll
11:36
probably go back to school if necessary.
11:38
You didn't.
11:40
But what I know, nobody, nobody believe
11:42
it, but still just put it out there in the universe.
11:45
Listen, owners understand, Listen, we gotta
11:47
we gotta take a seat, we gotta take that.
11:49
It presented itself.
11:50
This man was not going back to school because
11:53
all you do is delay getting to that big
11:55
money. You can get to the big money
11:57
after the third year. So why would I go back
11:59
to school for another year? Now
12:02
I'm gonna get forty million. His entire rookie
12:04
contract is about to be guaranteed. You
12:06
mean to tell me that a kid
12:09
would go back to school. Now, I don't know his financial
12:12
situation. He could have gone back, but
12:14
forty years guaranteed within a three
12:16
year turn, I can turn around to get a quarter of a billion,
12:18
maybe three hundred million. But I'm
12:21
gonna go back to school because I got a five
12:23
million dollar nil deal and I don't particular
12:25
he might want to go to the place that draft me number one.
12:27
Overall, nobody believed that. Everybody
12:29
called bull drive from the jump.
12:31
I like, you know, I'm happy that organization
12:34
is getting it right. They doing it right now. If we can
12:36
just do if we can get if
12:38
we can get the Jets organization to do
12:40
right, because Aaron Rodgers is not the
12:43
answer for the for sea of your future, you
12:45
know, as far as long term is concerned, and
12:48
we can get the it's
12:50
one more team that doesn't do right by
12:52
that quarterback position. Now, I'll think about it, but I'll
12:54
come back.
12:55
I like what the Jets did.
12:56
They got Tyrens million free agency. They gonna
12:58
put him at left tackle. The gott
13:01
time put him at right tackle. Because at the
13:03
end of the day, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if
13:05
Aaron Rodgers is on his back from
13:07
the back. You could have all the still
13:10
position players that you want, but somehow
13:12
somebody got a protective That's why I love
13:14
what the Chargers did. The Charger says, you know
13:17
what, we got Rashawn Slater, one of the better young
13:19
tackle that left tackle. We bringing Joe
13:21
All. We secured that and so now
13:24
we can go play football. We can throw the ball with
13:26
our quarterback being protected.
13:29
Yeah, and you know what I do like also with
13:31
that for the Chargers, they let Kenny Allen
13:34
go. So there were so many receivers
13:36
on the board. So this is the
13:38
alarm and alert. Quentin Johnson,
13:40
Quentin Johnson, I know you're gonna see this.
13:43
Boy.
13:43
It's your time. Yeah, it's
13:45
your time. They didn't take a receiver because
13:48
they believe in you. So it's your time to show
13:50
up and show out. They realized the get
13:52
They just gave you the torch. The torch is
13:54
yours. Now you are the number one.
13:56
I said, Now, look at all these receivers that he had before,
13:59
and he couldn't throw because he's on his back.
14:02
So let me get somebody to stabilize
14:05
the edges.
14:07
And now maybe we maybe
14:09
we're not trying to, maybe he's not throwing for
14:11
seventeen thousand yards a game, but
14:13
we're winning and we're protected. Now
14:16
that defense is gonna have to live up
14:19
till it's billing. You got a Joey
14:21
Bosa, you got Khalil
14:23
Mack, you got a Derwin James. God,
14:26
it's time loaded Samuel
14:30
Jr. It is time for
14:32
you guys to to to make some noise.
14:35
It's too much talent over there now. I believe
14:38
Jim Harbaugh will get
14:41
more out of them than their previous day.
14:44
He's gonna get it right.
14:45
But that's too much talent over there,
14:47
O Joe, for them not to miss, to miss the playoffs
14:50
and be middling around like they do.
14:52
Yeah, Jade
14:54
Daniels goes to the Commanders. I
14:57
like this. I like this pick.
14:58
I like Drake may out of all
15:00
this postures about older Patriots who listened to
15:02
the offers for what offers
15:05
for what. You need a quarterback,
15:07
You need a quarterback, You need a
15:10
quarterback, and this
15:12
was one was available. Marvin
15:15
Ason Jr.
15:15
I like that pick. Like I said, I like Joe All going
15:18
to the Chargers.
15:18
I like that Tyron Smith on the left side, Joe,
15:21
who was a left tackle, He's gonna move to the right side.
15:24
And guess what when Tyron Smith retires,
15:26
he kicks back over to the right left side.
15:29
I like Tennessee Titans. I like Latham.
15:31
Uh.
15:32
They got to protect the quarterback, whomever that
15:34
may be. Michael pen But
15:36
this is where it got interesting at O Joe, you and I
15:38
have touched on this. He went number eight.
15:41
I mean it was a shocker. I mean everybody was
15:43
shocked because we're they're surprised.
15:45
It's kind of like, hold on, it
15:48
would have been like Miami paying
15:50
Tyreek all that money and then turn around
15:52
and draft and receive in the first round.
15:54
Right, I understand what was hold
15:57
on, Joe?
15:57
They got, they got, they got Tyreek. They
16:00
just gave Tyreek BURDI you tell me they
16:02
are secure.
16:04
Right right?
16:05
But I think that's the only shocker
16:07
for me when I when you go back to, oh, this
16:10
is what cousin agent said. Yes,
16:12
it was a big surprise. We had no idea,
16:15
idea this was coming. The truth is the
16:17
whole league had no idea this was coming.
16:20
We got no heads up. Kurt got no
16:22
call from the Falcons when they were on the clock. That
16:24
was the first we heard. It never came up in any
16:27
conversations.
16:28
Now, So what does that tell What does that tell
16:30
you? That tells you all you need? That tells you exactly
16:32
what I just sound don't. We didn't
16:34
have a choice but to pay you the money you did because
16:37
it's what you commanded and what you warranted based
16:39
on the production of what you put in in
16:41
previous years.
16:42
That's what it is.
16:43
That's what the market was based on who Kirk
16:46
Cousins is and his resume. But
16:49
we had to pay you that. But we don't see
16:51
you as a quarterback for the foresee of your future.
16:54
So we're gonna have to draft what's best on the
16:56
board. The next best thing, and that was Michael Penning
16:58
Junior.
16:58
Let me ask you a question.
17:01
You spend thirty million dollar four house,
17:04
are you expecting to do renovations? Oh?
17:07
Oh, I'm so glad you just said that. I
17:10
am so glad you just said that. I
17:12
have a very good friend of mine.
17:14
You might know him.
17:15
We call him the Biggest Boss. His name
17:18
is Rick Ross. He just bought a house
17:20
on Star Island for thirty seven
17:22
million dollars and guess what he
17:24
did to it. Tore it down and renovating
17:27
it. Yes, come on now, talk to me.
17:29
Tore it, tore down a thirty seven million
17:32
dollar house.
17:32
To nothing and is renovating
17:35
it and putting another fifty
17:37
into You heard about that, great,
17:39
great, great example.
17:41
I'm not great, great example.
17:43
I'm glad you say.
17:46
What somebody did with their money, But
17:49
I'm not saying that's the most fiscally
17:51
responsible thing to do.
17:53
Possible, right right, right?
17:54
Boss, Hey, we love you.
17:55
That's your money, them your pocket and I ain't
17:58
count nobody in pockets. I don't believe that's
18:00
the best use of thirty
18:02
seven million, but that's his money. But
18:05
when I look at what I look at, O Joe, that's
18:07
that's the only thing. Look, there are certain
18:09
players.
18:10
I think you
18:12
give a heads up to a home,
18:15
right Brady.
18:16
Yeah, But I don't think Brady got
18:18
a heads up when they selected Jimmy G.
18:21
Garoppolo. No, he didn't.
18:23
But we got to understand as
18:25
a starting quarterback of a franchise, you
18:27
don't want to be looking over your shoulder with that kind
18:30
of pressure and knowing at
18:32
any minute, if I'm playing bad, that the
18:34
chance so and so could be starting. That
18:36
is why Garoppolo had to be shipped
18:38
off, or that's why I had.
18:40
To be shipped off an injury, because you remember
18:42
how Tom got the job.
18:44
Oh yeah, you blessed so getting hurt with more Williams
18:46
hitting, that's more Lewis, mo
18:49
Lewis, I'm sorry, Joe
18:51
quarterback like to take every snap, Neil
18:54
downs and everything.
18:55
I don't want you looking at my potential
18:58
successor. You're
19:00
gonna go into it blind.
19:01
You're gonna have no idea what this guy is capable
19:03
of, because I'm not gonna let him get on the
19:05
deal.
19:07
Even when it comes to Niel down. No, I got this victory.
19:09
I can.
19:09
I'm perfectly fine taking the staff and getting
19:11
getting the kneel down. Oh
19:19
Joe, the giants, you
19:23
like it. I don't like Malik because whos
19:25
gonna get it? Who's gonna get in the ball No? I like Neighbors.
19:27
I think he's phenomenal. Who's gonna get
19:29
it? Oh? Yeah, the ball.
19:32
Man brother brother Daniel Jones. Now listen,
19:36
I know, I know what you're gonna say.
19:38
I know what you're gonna say. But I like the pairing.
19:40
I like the pairing of Jalen Hyatt and Malik, Neighbors,
19:43
Sterling Shepard as well. Sterling is still there, right,
19:45
But I don't wanna. I don't want to speak too fast. Yeah,
19:50
okay, okay, I like it.
19:51
I like the trio.
19:53
Now, you might not be too fond of Daniel
19:55
Jones. I don't think anybody, but sometimes Ray,
19:58
they probably aren't. But listen, some some times you get
20:00
a receiver. Sometimes you get
20:02
a receiver that makes the quarterback
20:05
better. Sometimes you have quarterbacks
20:07
that make the receivers better. I think Malik Neighbors
20:10
is this kind of receiver that makes
20:12
Daniel Jones that much better that
20:16
that that's just how I feel. I feel
20:18
you have a receiver that is great and
20:21
intermediate deep routes, being
20:24
able to run everything short beat
20:26
Man the Man. Then you have Jalen Hyde
20:28
who is also a speezer. So there's so many
20:31
different things that you can do, especially with Sterling
20:33
Shepherd being able to command and understanding
20:36
how to run their intermediate stuff
20:38
as well being able to sit down his own and
20:40
making Daniel Jones job easy
20:43
where he doesn't have to be Superman and put on his
20:45
cape because the supporting cast has just gotten
20:47
that much better around him.
20:48
But I could be wrong, but here's the thing.
20:51
They've never asked him to be Superman. Hell
20:53
Day ask him to be Clark Clark Kent and
20:56
hell he was playing like los Lane.
20:58
What you mean.
21:00
They didn't ask him to be They didn't ask him to
21:02
be special. They
21:06
just asked not to turn the ball over
21:08
and not to take so many sacks. I
21:10
mean, sometimes you know, quarterbacks
21:13
getting They're always trying to make the big play, and
21:16
sometimes you have to get out of your way. It's okay,
21:18
it's okay to hit the single. Sometimes it's
21:20
okay to walk. It's okay to throw the ball out
21:22
of bounds. On Joe, you can't make
21:25
every play, but you putting
21:27
the ball in harm's way, or taking a sack that's
21:29
potentially taking us out of field goal range, or
21:32
put us putting us in third and
21:34
ten, third and fifteen when we
21:37
could have been it could have when
21:39
it could have been thirty five.
21:41
So that those are some of the things. Daniel
21:44
Jones' the starter they got.
21:45
They got Drew Lock, remember
21:47
I think they got Drew Lock, and they got Tommy DeVito
21:51
running backs to the Devin single,
21:53
Teary Edic Gray, Gary Brightwell, and
21:55
they got Melik Neighbors, Jaln Hyatt,
21:58
Gnna o'ceewski, Darius Layton,
22:00
Isaiah Mackenzie, Miles boykend Wandale
22:03
Robinson, Isaiah. Obviously, all
22:05
these all these guys are not gonna beat there all the because
22:07
it's got no receivers.
22:09
You normally keep wait, you you you, you ain't
22:11
even say Sterling Shepherd name, so he's not there anymore.
22:14
I think that he might have left in free agency. Oh
22:17
ship, damn well,
22:19
I wonder who did? I wonder who gonna be the number three? Well,
22:22
Molik neighbors Jalen hyat
22:24
they still have slaves, they still
22:26
have Mackensie. Yeah, okay, they
22:29
still got one Dale Robinson who
22:32
played well, So that's gonna
22:34
be That's gonna be very very interesting. Uh.
22:37
I wonder how the I wonder
22:39
how the Giants fans failed about
22:42
that, because, like I said, I was watching you. I didn't have the sound
22:44
on, so I didn't know if there was boos going on,
22:46
if there were cheers with I'm sure they were cheering
22:48
the selection, but I probably
22:50
I think Giants fan probably wanted
22:53
a quarterback in that spot. Minnesota
22:56
traded up with the Jazz to take JJ McCartney
22:59
with them ten J. J. Mccarth, excuse
23:01
me, uh with the ten slot,
23:04
and bow
23:07
Knicks went to the Broncos. I don't think we're
23:09
surprised by that. We know they need a quarterback.
23:12
He's taking the quarterback of the future.
23:14
The Raiders didn't move at all and
23:17
got brought byers landed in their lap. Now
23:19
he with the Dante with Davante
23:22
Adam and uh yeah, what's
23:25
the guy the other guy from the New
23:28
England they got Miles Uh
23:32
uh, he was a he was a quarterback in college.
23:34
I forget his name came from the Patriots.
23:38
I don't know Myers. You know what I thought.
23:40
You know what I thought.
23:42
I said.
23:43
I said it right before, right before the right before
23:45
the draft started, or when it was time for the number two
23:47
six. I was like, I tweeted, I tweeted
23:49
out, I wonder if the Raider's gonna be able
23:51
to sneak up the number two because
23:54
I know, I know Antonio appears.
23:55
I know, yeah,
23:59
that wouldn't trade that gonna Joe, because think
24:01
about how long they waited to
24:03
get a quarterback. You know, for whatever
24:06
reason, Haskins he might have been able to, but
24:08
you know, tragically he lost his life. RG
24:12
three situation RG three, I think Jacoby
24:14
Myers, that's the guy, Jacoby Myers the
24:16
other.
24:19
Yah, yeah, he's with Demante so and
24:22
so.
24:23
I just knew because they
24:25
this kid five thousand yards
24:27
passing four or five, you know, almost thousand
24:29
yards. Well he had four thousand yards passing
24:32
all those touchdowns. He was sensational
24:35
and yeah, to take
24:37
that and say, well, you know what, we're gonna
24:39
build a team. You can build whatever
24:42
you want to without the foundation. That
24:45
housein't nothing nothing
24:48
without that quarterback. Think about
24:50
it.
24:50
They no matter what they do, they take mahomes
24:52
whatever. As long as they got.
24:54
My homes, Kansas City's gonna be dangerous.
24:57
Ain't very many teams can lose a receiver
25:00
of Tyreek's caliber caliber,
25:02
Yeah, and still win an m v P and
25:05
back to back too over MVP.
25:07
That's a rarity.
25:09
Yeah, you go, but you listen, you got
25:11
to have that special pieces, yes, yes,
25:17
right, you got to get it. And
25:19
you know, you know the funny thing. The funny thing
25:21
is about the draft. The funny thing about the first round.
25:24
Like everything that's toss up, it's a gamble. There's
25:27
no you never know if everybody's going to
25:29
pan out. You just hope so. And
25:32
by doing that, you got to build the pieces around
25:34
them, you know, to give the players the best
25:36
chances to succeed.
25:38
Uh. The Chiefs Wide
25:40
Receiver Room Hollywood Brown for Tow seven
25:43
worthy, the fastest combined time and
25:46
in the NFL history four two one,
25:48
Rashi Rice four five to one he's
25:51
probably gonna miss a couple of games. Oo, we
25:53
don't need to get to I.
25:54
Say about two. I saw, I saw a report
25:56
about a couple couple of games.
25:58
Is too Yes, uh, you still got your have who
26:00
I believe is the go tight end still playing
26:02
at a screen high level. You got that guy
26:05
one five. As long as you got one five,
26:07
you got a chance. Now I
26:09
think they should go into the draft
26:11
and get a big receiver. You gotta have one,
26:13
Ojo. You gotta have one fixed one.
26:16
What you got you got one for she
26:18
rights.
26:18
It ain't little I
26:20
told you think is.
26:23
But listen, wait before you even say anything.
26:25
I'm not even joking. Every time I see him
26:27
on TV, I swore he had
26:29
to be about six too.
26:30
Don't think that rites probably
26:33
about six foot if that, he looks small
26:35
than me, Ojo.
26:37
No, I mean I don't. I don't
26:39
know. He looked
26:41
like like not he's not as
26:43
big as Dwayne bow.
26:47
Was huge.
26:49
Yeah, he looked like a big receiver.
26:50
No, I don't think. I don't think of that big hold on, pull
26:54
up his stash right quick?
26:57
Yeah they got that?
26:58
How much?
27:01
That's a good side? You
27:04
mean like you mean like you want you mean like six three
27:06
six, folks, No, I was.
27:07
Six to is fire. But you know what, Hair's the thing.
27:09
I think the thing that threw me off is that he
27:12
catches a lot of smoke screens. They don't use
27:14
him like a typical like like Davonte
27:17
Davante if an average five
27:19
receist sixty one, but he's
27:21
outside, he's running come
27:23
back, he running DEEG routes, he's
27:25
running square out, he's doing and RACEI
27:28
ris. A lot of his stuff is bubble screen,
27:30
smoke, jail break screens and things of that nature.
27:33
So you don't look. Then you go right.
27:35
You remember you got to sometimes when
27:37
you have a receiver that is not good at certain
27:39
things, you got to be able to have him and use
27:42
them in different ways. You got to understand, Davonte
27:44
Adams is an elite route runner. He's
27:47
the release pre release guy.
27:49
He getting off that too. Listen,
27:52
Rashi rice might that might not be a
27:54
strength. So they use them to his strengths. You
27:56
know, I'm not gonna say hi to you know, you can hide your quarterback
27:59
a little bit, you try to. You can do that with you
28:01
Yeah, you can do that with receivers as well. When they're not good
28:03
as something. If you look at it, Ohoe,
28:05
I think we had a record.
28:08
Twenty three offensive players were taken
28:10
in the first thirty two picks, including
28:12
several wide receivers and six quarterbacks.
28:15
The first defensive player came
28:17
off the edge. He was a Jared
28:20
verse La no no
28:23
hold on Dallas Turner no
28:27
Latu Latu was the first.
28:29
Fifty Yeah, fifteen,
28:32
and then you had Byron Murphy.
28:33
You had a run of defenders. Byron Murphy
28:35
DT from Texas.
28:36
Sixteen, Dallas Turner Edge Alabama,
28:39
and then you had Verse the Rams from
28:41
Florida State and he had another chop.
28:44
Robinson went to Miami. And
28:47
we understand it because Brandley
28:50
Chubb injury. You know, the
28:52
other guy on the author side. He's coming
28:54
off the injury. So you've got the final way
28:56
to generate pressure. Hey remember
28:58
they got rid of a Za, they got rid of
29:00
Howard. Yeah, so they
29:03
lost some defensive players. Now they get a healthy
29:05
Jay Ram back. So after
29:08
you know he came back in the season and played
29:10
well, he'll be even better because
29:12
he has an opportunity that you.
29:13
Trained and not rehab
29:16
so he'll be he'll ram. I'm
29:18
not worried about him.
29:19
I think he'll be I think he'll be really
29:21
good and pick up and get back
29:23
to the all the all pro status.
29:26
So I like I like the Eagles
29:28
pick Young Bull. I like Young
29:30
Bull from.
29:33
Listen.
29:35
And he's so nice too. He's so nice.
29:37
I don't care. I don't care nothing about them coming from Toledo,
29:40
and people will talk about, oh, the competition he had to play
29:42
against.
29:42
Man.
29:43
Listen, he jumps out you on, he jumps
29:45
out at you, tat, he jumps
29:47
at you out you listen, coverage,
29:49
zone man, everything. He
29:52
nice. He's so he's what I call
29:54
even though he's coming out of college, he's so polished
29:57
as if he's already been in the NFL. So you can tell
30:00
whoever does his coaching and the off season, they
30:02
don't.
30:03
Put look out, look at, look
30:05
at smooth, look out, smoothiere, look
30:07
at transition, thank you.
30:10
That back then coming a
30:13
whole and a whole lot of wasteing motion.
30:16
And then I saw, I saw, I retweeted,
30:18
I saw some some dude. Obviously
30:20
he's part of media in Philadelphia. He say,
30:23
uh, with the whatever pick we pick
30:26
Quinn Mitchell, I don't.
30:27
Like that pick.
30:28
I'm like, what do y'all be watching?
30:31
Like, what do y'all be watching? Do you actually
30:33
watch film on the individuals that are being picked
30:36
or you just pick a name out of hat that you just
30:38
like that you think might fit on the team. He was
30:41
a need that we needed, obviously,
30:43
I'm not I'm not sure if they're they're happy
30:45
with Bradbury. Bradbury, I love him to death,
30:47
you know, even though you know he had his ups and down.
30:52
Okay, Okay, I get you, But how could
30:54
you not watch a player of quin
30:56
Mitchell's caliber and then even say something
30:58
like that on draft y after he gets and
31:01
have some negative to say, Oh I wish we had picked man.
31:03
I hate stuff like that.
31:05
He ain't go to no big school, so you didn't see him.
31:09
So unless you scouted it or know what you're looking
31:11
for, when you look at him, it goes
31:13
over your head. So
31:16
we're looking at his feet, We're looking at how he
31:18
turns his hips. We love watching him transition.
31:22
Okay, Kenny, Kenny, Kenny, back Ben
31:24
okay a and
31:27
come yeah, okay,
31:29
Katie, and get those hips around,
31:32
because that's that's that's that's what I'm looking at. It.
31:34
You watch look at his feet. Look at
31:36
his feet.
31:37
Ain't no, ain't no elongate emotional thing
31:39
chopping a He's sitting back there in that crouch.
31:43
I'm coming listen.
31:45
I watched the film on it on the
31:47
inside and the slot. I seen him on the outside
31:49
with bigger receivers, with smaller receivers,
31:52
and he changing up, he changing up his technique
31:54
based on the type of receiver he's covered.
31:56
Man, But I like it.
31:57
I think they need that. But
32:00
they got to tackle. They secondary, and
32:02
oh Joe, I was saying, remember I saying this all year.
32:04
Oh shut up?
32:06
What you know?
32:07
How you playoff game?
32:09
Yeah?
32:09
Yeah, where I said they was playing
32:12
possible?
32:13
No, no, they they
32:15
were bad. Oh ja, they don't pay a little possible,
32:18
Oh Joe.
32:19
They adn't want to tackle that game. And I don't want you at
32:21
that game. No game, but
32:24
no, the playoff game was worse. Now, the playoff game,
32:26
I can't remember who it was they were playing. They weren't
32:28
tackling at all. I'm like, it's like
32:31
it's like they weren't even trying. But we saw
32:33
this in the regular season, and
32:35
you try to say they're gonna pick it up.
32:37
Oh Joe, you are what you are.
32:40
At that point in time in the season. You know, Okay,
32:43
I'm gonna give you a little grace. She say, hey, give
32:45
them time. It's only week five. Did you
32:47
say, come on, uncle, it's only week ten. Come
32:49
on, Unki's only week fifteen. I was
32:52
like, what damn o Joe to seize damn there over
32:54
might give them a chance.
32:56
I mean they started off ten and one, so I gave
32:59
I gave him a little And what.
33:00
Did I tell you? I, Oh, you're that fools goal. I
33:03
said, you accepted things on a win. You would never
33:05
would have lost. All that poor tackle,
33:08
it, all that the ability
33:10
to get to turn the team over.
33:12
I said, you accepted that on show, but
33:15
we went I said, okay, then
33:17
would have happened. All their fans went crazy,
33:19
the same fans that went crazy on
33:22
that team when they lost that game and they
33:24
lost the division all
33:26
of a sudden. Well, I
33:28
just tried to tell you all that. Oh
33:36
Joe woo lay up lose
33:38
to the Nuggets. Oh man,
33:41
here's the thing. Nicolea Yogis
33:44
twenty four points, fifteen rebounds, Aaron
33:46
Gordon twenty nine points, fifteen rebounds,
33:49
Murray twenty two points, five rebounds,
33:51
MPJ twenty points, ten rebounds.
33:54
Lebron James and Anthony Davis had
33:56
fifty nine points. Yoki Ja Murray
33:59
had forty six points. The rest of
34:01
the Lakers starters had twenty seven points.
34:03
The rest of the Nugget starter fifty
34:06
four points. I knew once
34:09
the Lakers didn't win that game of
34:12
the night, it was gonna be difficult,
34:14
because you're gonna think about it. Ojo Ad
34:17
thirty two and eleven, Lebron twenty six, twelve
34:19
and eight. D Loo had twenty three on seven
34:21
May threes. What was the likelihood,
34:23
considering the way he played game
34:26
one, that and he played Game two, that
34:28
he was gonna come back. It was gonna be more likely
34:31
that he come back and play more like Game one than
34:33
he did Game two.
34:34
Now, I didn't.
34:35
Expect these numbers, zero points,
34:38
zero, seven of six. I
34:41
didn't expect that.
34:42
I didn't. Now, I'll be lying if I sit to him said
34:44
I thought that, but I didn't.
34:45
Think it was especially at home, especially
34:48
at home.
34:48
Exactly, but I didn't expect him.
34:51
I didn't expect another seven of eleven from
34:54
three. Bron
34:56
and Ad gonna give you what they gonna give
34:58
you right now, who's
35:01
the third guy. And remember I said this at
35:03
the beginning, the Lakers other
35:06
three starters Austin Reeves, RUI
35:09
and a d LO will
35:11
need to play Aaron Gordon, Michael
35:14
Porter Jr.
35:15
And k C P in order for them to win.
35:19
And there you go, Lakers not
35:21
getting I mean Lakers, Lakers not getting
35:24
off the k K rebound. They can't
35:26
keep get off the defensive glass. Aaron Murray,
35:29
excuse me, Jamal
35:31
Murray getting on the glass, getting rebounds,
35:34
getting put back.
35:35
Michael Porter Junr. KCP.
35:37
I'm like, really, if Anthony
35:39
David is the only one that's allowed to get rebounds
35:42
for the Lakers, I was like, God, come on, and
35:45
then we have I mean, listen, go ahead, listen
35:47
once again. Once again, the Lakers blew a double jujit
35:49
lead. Once again, the Lakers
35:51
blew a double digit lead. Yeah, and
35:53
didn't get enough what's the word again, you say
35:56
separation? That is, didn't get enough
35:59
separation again? Hell eighty said it. Eighty
36:01
said it the other night.
36:02
Not only did he say it, it came into fruition
36:05
because now it looks like he knows exactly what they're
36:07
talking about. When he said, we don't
36:09
know what we're doing later in the games,
36:12
and they looked just like that, Oh,
36:14
you gotta understand, you got understand. You gotta understand
36:17
that the tongue is powerful.
36:18
Man.
36:18
Yeah, the tongue is powerful. To me,
36:20
it's almost like you're throwing your coach under the yes,
36:23
like you're not doing a job even though
36:25
the head coach and you understand you are the Lakers. So
36:27
who you think is gonna take the brunt of the heat
36:30
for y'all losing again or if you get swept?
36:33
Oh, yeah, he.
36:34
Gonna be out of who's gonna
36:36
get fired?
36:36
Uh?
36:37
Ham Man?
36:39
You oh, you always want to cover your coach at
36:41
all at all times.
36:42
It was minus always want to come.
36:44
There was minus thirteen on the glass, they
36:46
was minus five. They were what minus five
36:48
minus? There was minus six on the offensive glass.
36:51
I mean, you're not your Anthony
36:54
Davis. In the game two, through three
36:56
quarters, Anthony Davis had thirty two points on fourteen
36:59
to eighteen shoot In the fourth
37:01
quarter, he had zero points on one
37:03
field goal to temp. In Game three,
37:05
he had thirty points through three quarters
37:08
on thirteen to twenty shooting. In
37:10
the fourth quarter, he had three points on one
37:12
of three. Now
37:15
either he's running out of gas or then now
37:17
it looks to me they're not getting the ball because
37:20
he got one shot attempt in game two and
37:22
he got three, he got four shot attempts in
37:24
game in game three.
37:26
That's not enough.
37:28
Well, I have I have a question. Now, you know better
37:30
than I do when it comes to when it comes to basketball
37:33
basketball, they run play, Yes, they
37:35
run plays for certain situations. You scheme,
37:37
you have tactics, you have all that the same as
37:39
the same as NFL. When Patrick Mahomes comes
37:42
to the line of scrimmage, a matter of fact, when Joe Burrow
37:44
comes to the line of scrimmage and he sees the defense,
37:46
you know what, I don't care what the play call it that
37:49
comes in pay attention to
37:51
me. I can allo, I can allo
37:53
it. So in crunch time
37:55
and later in the games, whoever's running
37:57
the point, whether it be Lebron, whether it be de Loo Brenna
38:00
announced, change the play of
38:02
Austin Reeve, change the play to make
38:04
sure you have a reason
38:07
to get goddamn eighty
38:09
the ball. It's pretty simid.
38:10
Yeah, it's frustrating because
38:13
you see a concerted effort through the first three
38:15
games eighteen shot attemps through
38:17
three quarters, twenty shot attempts
38:19
through three quarters, but in the fourth
38:21
quarter he get one field goal attemp.
38:23
In the fourth quarter he get four field goal attempts.
38:26
Right, you think you're tired. You
38:30
can't get tired too many
38:32
minutes.
38:32
No, hell no, you know, come playoff
38:35
time, you're gonna have to play forty minutes a night.
38:38
Expect to play forty minutes a night. Anthony
38:40
Davis played forty three minutes. Lebron played
38:44
forty two minutes.
38:45
De Lo play.
38:45
Oster Reeves played forty one ostar
38:48
Reeves got it going late, but he missed a couple of bunnies.
38:51
He did.
38:51
You know, he didn't have his finest
38:54
game, d Lo. Obviously you
38:56
can't have your starter score
38:58
no points.
39:00
He just can't.
39:02
Oh, he didn't have any points in the game. You
39:05
can't have that, especially
39:09
when the Nuggets. The Nuggets started, they
39:11
had four starters with
39:14
twenty plus points.
39:16
Hey, is it that difficult?
39:19
Is it that difficult to be consistent?
39:21
Because Dlo just had a hell of a game in game
39:23
two, a hell of a game in game two,
39:26
and then you come up. I'm not gonna call it a stinker.
39:28
I'm sure that's what other people call it. But
39:31
is it that difficult to be consistent?
39:35
Yeah?
39:37
Yeah, lights
39:42
of bright. It's different playing in LA.
39:45
Whoa, whoa, lights of bright? This
39:48
ain't his first, This ain't his first.
39:50
Is the expectations different than when you was in Cincinnati?
39:53
With the expectations different than when you played in New
39:55
England? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
39:58
yeah, yeah yeah yeah. So
40:00
imagine that's the Lakers now. When you talk
40:02
about great players, the Pantheons,
40:05
the Russell I mean the Chamberlains,
40:08
the Elgin Baylor, the Shacks, the Kobe's,
40:10
the Magic, the Kareems, the Worthies,
40:13
the George Mike Ins.
40:16
Yeah.
40:16
Now, now listen, this is the thing. Even
40:18
though I'm in a different place, it's still the game of even
40:21
though you're in a different place, even though you're playing in
40:24
LA as opposed to wherever you're previous
40:26
before LA. And you remember, this is your second
40:29
stint in LA, so you should already be
40:31
used to the lights. You've been playing the game of basketball since
40:33
he was eight years old. Now it doesn't sang
40:35
this. This is still the same child's game you've always
40:37
played, so that shouldn't change based
40:40
on the atmosphere and your surroundings, whether
40:42
the lights are brighter, whether the lights.
40:43
Are Expectations changes, Okay,
40:51
pressure, pressure, pressure, expectations.
40:54
You see, if you're in a relationship,
40:56
but you don't have no expectations, if
40:59
she does something to disappoint you, you're
41:01
not upset.
41:03
But when you have expectations, that's
41:05
when it hurt. Yeah.
41:08
And the greater the expectations, the greater
41:10
the pressure, and the more it hurts.
41:14
And see, that's what I tell people for people like man, did I
41:16
say, bro, I'm damn
41:18
near in tears when I lose, because
41:21
because if you're if it doesn't
41:23
hurt that bad, you probably didn't invest that much
41:25
into it, right, It's
41:27
got to mean something to you, because I'm thinking
41:29
about the time what I sacrifice, the
41:32
time that I didn't do what I promised my kids
41:34
I do, like go to the amusement park
41:36
or take them to do this, X, Y and Z, or
41:39
misfunctions with my family to.
41:41
Try to get better at a task. You
41:45
damn right, it hurt.
41:47
And y'all cauld say oh bad man you crist
41:49
Yes, yes, because that's how
41:51
invested I am. And when
41:54
things don't go well with this, yeah,
41:56
it hurt because I know how much time
41:59
I put into Nightcap, how
42:01
much.
42:01
Time I put in the podcast? Right
42:04
right?
42:04
How we try to get better at what we
42:07
do because that's the objective.
42:09
What are we doing this for?
42:10
Yeah, okay, it's fine. Yeah, we do
42:12
great numbers and we get no I'm
42:15
trying to do one hundred thousand in
42:17
the chat, I'm trying to do one fifty. I'm trying to do two
42:19
hundred. I
42:21
won't advertise as the sponsors say. I want
42:23
to be a part of Nightcap. I want
42:26
to be a part. We
42:28
got the news today. Club
42:30
Shayha is the number one podcast
42:33
on YouTube. I didn't say sports.
42:36
I said number one, right,
42:39
and we release it once a week.
42:44
I'm here's the.
42:45
Thing, and this is what I tell you, and people stay
42:48
with me. I don't let me know you lose you. I'm
42:51
satisfying, but I'm not content.
42:56
Those are two separate Those are entirely
43:01
different things. So
43:04
when I stay up late at night and I'm getting
43:07
four and five hours of sleep and I'm
43:09
I don't let as sleep and she don't let
43:12
me sleep because we're brainstorming.
43:14
Well, I'm telling CJ. C J, let's try me. What
43:16
do you think about this? Just say, hey, what do you think about this? You
43:18
think this?
43:19
You think this, so we can do this, hey
43:22
whatever whatever you think that will
43:24
work because we have to keep reinventing
43:26
ourselves. Next
43:30
year, we're gonna be at the draft. We're
43:32
gonna have nightcap, will be live at
43:35
the draft. Wait, we're going to We're
43:37
going to the draft. We're gonna have nightcaps, gonna be live
43:39
at the draft.
43:41
Wait?
43:41
What what? What?
43:42
What city is the draft?
43:44
And lambou Fiel, Yes.
43:48
For the head, I'm gonna wear me yellow. I'm gonna wear me yellow
43:50
suit too. I'm I'm gonna wear me a
43:52
yellow suit. Yeah, I for to
43:54
get my suit ready. Well, we're gonna be at a draft.
43:57
So that's how that's that's that's
43:59
how it is, and that that's why I hurt. The Lakers
44:01
were outscored thirty four to two in the third quarter.
44:03
The Lakers have been outscored by thirty one points
44:05
in the third quarter. And that's the series, Darvin
44:08
Ham. That's the way the game game goes. It's
44:10
to make a mislead when we have when
44:12
we have to keep the scoreboard moving.
44:16
Yeah, yeah you do, Yeah
44:19
you do.
44:21
It's top Oh Toby's top. The expectation, that's
44:24
the Lakers. Everybody
44:26
can't Everybody is not meant to play
44:28
in New York. We've seen some of the best players
44:30
in baseball go to New York
44:33
and not be able to do it. What's
44:36
the song says, if you can make it here,
44:38
you can make it anywhere.
44:39
You can make it anywhere.
44:40
Yeah, the
44:43
Yankees, the Lakers, that's
44:45
what is Chicago where
44:48
the Bulls ain't been good and while the Bears had the
44:50
Bears got that.
44:53
The Bears just had some great players.
44:55
Now, you know, back when they were playing for the championships
44:57
and Papa Bear Hallas, you know they had those
44:59
old the old school guys. They were they were good.
45:02
But yeah, yeah, Ojo and
45:04
I think the thing is with the Lakers, it's over. They're
45:07
not winning. They they getting swept again. Back to back year
45:09
they getting.
45:09
Swept and you ain't got
45:11
no hope.
45:12
Now, oh Joe, I saw they had a twenty four lead
45:14
and they lost. They lost
45:17
when Jamal Murray didn't play particularly
45:19
well. They loft with Aaron Aaron
45:21
Gordon didn't play particularly well.
45:23
Man.
45:24
When you got when you got hold on, you got
45:26
Jokic going for twenty four and fifteen, Gordon
45:28
going for twenty nine and fifteen, Murray twenty two,
45:30
Andy five mpj at
45:32
twenty and tene
45:35
Man, Come on, O Joe, you can't do nothing. You can't do nothing
45:37
with that hold on this pauld you see, let
45:39
me see something, O Joe. Uh
45:47
Aaron Gordon Twelve of eighteen, Michael Porter
45:49
Jr. Eight of sixteen, uh Nicola
45:51
Jokic nine of thirteen. Murray
45:54
didn't shoot the ball well. He was eight
45:56
of twenty one, one of six
45:58
from the three, and
46:01
you you.
46:04
So. No, it's over, Joe.
46:07
It's over.
46:07
When they didn't win Game two, when
46:10
you had a fifteen point leader half, you stretch
46:12
it to twenty and you don't seal
46:14
that deal. Now the
46:17
Nuggets don't. The Nuggets feel like we
46:19
don't care how far y'all get. We track you down. I
46:22
don't care how far you get ahead of us. We
46:26
walk you down. Yeah,
46:28
it's crazy. I think they play again. I don't
46:31
know when they played. I think they played Sunday as Sunday
46:34
Saturday.
46:35
Yeah, it's over, I believe.
46:36
So it's not mistaken.
46:38
It's over.
46:39
It's over, Oh Joe, Joe
46:41
el ebid scored fifty yo
46:44
to lead the seventy sixers past the next one twenty
46:46
five to one. Fourteen cut the deficit
46:48
to two to one. Joel Embiid had thirteen.
46:50
He was thirteen of nineteen from the floor, nineteen
46:53
or twenty one from the free throw line. He hit
46:56
five threes. He's the first
46:58
guy in NBA history just score
47:00
fifty points in a playoff game on
47:02
twenty.
47:03
Or fewer shots.
47:06
Man, that man, buddy, crazy
47:08
man, but and be and beats like, oh
47:10
man.
47:10
If he was healthy and I hated to
47:13
use that caveatf Yeah,
47:16
they beat that, they'd be a three to zero.
47:19
The dude getting fifty on.
47:20
One leg, La ladies
47:23
and gentleman at home. The man's on one leg.
47:25
Y'all see, y'all know he not healthy. And
47:27
he gave you a fifty piece, yeah,
47:30
fifty piece extra sauces.
47:33
No napkins made a mess of him.
47:37
That's crazy. Yes, thirteen
47:40
for nineteen from the field, five
47:42
to seven from three. A big man.
47:46
In four centers to score fifty plus points
47:49
in a playoff game. Obviously we know one.
47:51
Wilt Chamberlain, no surprise. Bob
47:53
mcadoon for the Buffalo Braids,
47:56
Nicola Jokics and Joe ellenb
48:00
that's that thinking four Yeah,
48:03
fifty piece and he on one leg.
48:07
He's on one leg.
48:09
Yeah, hell, I was there. I was there for that
48:12
seventy piece in field, and
48:14
yeah, I was expecting to see that consistently
48:16
over and over you and you had to tell me, now, it don't
48:18
work like that in basketball. Every
48:21
so often you get a game like that and he go
48:23
dropping fifty in the.
48:26
You needed you need to be like seventy five
48:28
eighty so you could have saw Will. Will
48:31
the only guy that had multiple one hundred.
48:33
He had a seventy eight, he had a seventy
48:36
three, he had like five seven. Yeah, but
48:38
no nobody else has more than one.
48:42
That's crazy.
48:44
So uh, people
48:47
were upset with within B for what they thought were
48:49
dirty plays when he pulled
48:51
him down.
48:53
I'm it's
48:57
kind of tough.
48:57
I wouldn't.
48:58
I wouldn't call that dirty. I don't and be thats
49:00
a dirty player, I think more so, you know what, I'm
49:02
a grabber's leg and hold the hurry up
49:04
and blows the whistle so he doesn't shoot the
49:06
ball. Yeah, and then you know, on Mitch on Mitchell's
49:09
part, a little a little flopping a little bit.
49:12
Yeah, I mean I've called I've caught
49:15
that flopped less on the bank when I got him out.
49:17
Than what they be doing in the NBA. I mean, you get ridiculous
49:19
with that.
49:21
Yeah, you can't call him a dirty player because
49:23
of a play that you just don't agree with. That
49:25
was somewhat of a somewhat agree but
49:28
yeah, if you, if you play the game
49:31
or just sports in general, you understand
49:33
he's trying to foul him and get
49:35
the ref to blow the whistle just so
49:37
he can't shoot the shot
49:41
