Speaker 1 (00:05):
This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntire.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
What is up Straight Fire, Pam, It's me Jason McIntire,
Straight Foyer for Wednesday, December seventeenth. Oh boy, did we
have a good night in sports? And no, I'm not
talking about the Bowl game. I had no money on
last night's Bowl game. But at the end of the pod,
I'll tell you I do have some money I wanted
tonight's games. I don't know why I bet it, but
I did. It's in the account. I'll just tell you
(00:32):
at the end. NBA Cup was fuh phenomenal. Oh my gosh,
I cannot wait to dive into nick Spurs. It did
sting a little Not gonna lie guys. Back in I
think the first week of the season the Spurs played
I don't remember who was. I think it was like
there's they won their first game and then won their
second game. I was like, holy count, this team's trying hard.
(00:55):
Let me bet them to win the NBA Cup. I
got an amazing number of plus twenty six hundred and
it looks great when they beat Okay see going up
against my Knicks, you know, I was like, I'm a
Knicks fan. I love this next team. But I'd like
degreen a little more. And then the Spurs go up
by like eleven and the third I'm like, I'm stoked.
(01:15):
I like a lot.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
You know.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
The family we were wrapping up dinner and I'm like, guys, hey,
I got to just I'm about to get some more
Christmas funds if the Spurs can hold on here. Obviously
you don't really care about this stuff, but I'm in
a fantasy football league, and you know, it's kind of
a big buy in and you get paid for every
week to high score. It gets like a small amount,
(01:38):
and then at the end of the regular season, the
number one team gets significantly more than your buy in, right,
And I was number one most of the season, but
the number two guy was about to catch me in points.
He had Jalen Waddle and Wattle needed like thirteen points
against the Steelers to beat me. So the guy in
(01:58):
number two a buddy of mine. We play together. He's
a nice guy. He texts me. He's like, hey, j Mack,
how about a deal. Why don't we split the number
one seed money? So we both almost recoup our buy in, right,
because Wattle may get it, And I was like, that's interesting.
So then I look at the gambling odds. Wattle's not
(02:19):
projected to get you know, his over under for catches
and yards basically comes in under the thirteen points he needed.
So I was like, no deal, let's do uh sixty
five thirty five, And then you have a deal. And
you know, I love negotiating. And so my buddy comes
back after like twenty minutes. He's like, no, let's just
let it ride. And of course Wattle does like nothing,
(02:41):
He had like four points, so I win that. I'm like, guys,
look at that fantasy football season long boom, you get,
you want this, you got that, you know, like it
was a nice, nice victory, and I thought I had
that with the Spurs, and they blew it, but not
necessarily it blew it. Let me take that back. The Nicks.
Mike Brown pulled some unbelievable decisions out of his rear
(03:02):
end and the Knicks come away with the NBA Cup Championship.
Nicks fans are geeked, Oh my gosh, we finally won something.
Oh it's so amazing we won something. Obviously, it's exciting.
The next one. I think the way they want it
is more exciting, and we'll get to that in a
quick second. I did just want it before I dive in.
I will have a bet on Seahawks Rams Thursday night football.
(03:28):
It's not clear cut what it is. I'll save it
for tomorrow. We just locked in a good guest to
preview the college football playoff games, which crazily are sneaking
up this weekend. Right, you got the Alabama Oklahoma rematch Friday.
I don't think I'm gonna have anything on that. I'm
leaning Bama. I was digging into their first meeting and
(03:49):
basically Alabama dominated the game but just kept turning the
ball over. I don't know that that's gonna happen again.
I don't love this hole have to go to Oklahoma
and win it. That makes it tough for Alabama. I
may just watch the game. I don't know. You know,
I'm kind of a Tye Simpson honk. I don't mind
if the Jets got him in the second round anyways.
(04:09):
And that there's three games on Saturday plus two NFL games.
And you guys know, I graduated from James Vandison University.
So did the wife. We did not know each other
in college, and so we're JMU fans. We have some
buddies going up to Oregon. But come on a weekend
before basically Christmas. Are you kidding me? I no way
I could pull that off. And then Sunday you got
(04:31):
the full slate with really really good game, a couple
of really really good games. So it's just going to
be a monster sports weekend ahead. But I just I
quickly wanted to touch on this whole Jeremiah Love going
to the NFL Draft just briefly, so obviously I like
Notre Dame a lot. I was a little upset that
(04:52):
they didn't make the playoff. I did not have any
money on that though, But I saw Jeremiah Love announced
he's going to the Pros. It's interesting because obviously Love
is an immensely talented running back. But Ashton Genty just
went to the Raiders' top What do you go for
something in the top like six? And I don't want
to say he flopped, but year one was terrible. I
(05:14):
don't know that year two is going to be much better.
The Raiders are just a mess. I'm okay taking a
running back if it's one of the last pieces to
the puzzle in early right. Jamiir Gibbs goes to the Lions. Well,
the Lions were almost fully formed Montgomery goff. They had
the receivers, they had the tight ends, like they had
the offensive line. They didn't need much. They got Gibbs
(05:35):
and it was like, oh, we're making the jump to
light speed, right genty out of the Raiders said nothing.
They don't have a quarterback, they don't have an offensive line.
They got Brock Powers at tight end. I guess that's it.
They had Jacoby Myers and they shipped him like they're
not good. They should not have taken a running back
that early. So I'm looking at where Jeremiah Love could
land in the draft, and it's interesting because some of
(06:01):
these teams drafting at the top are basically right where
they were last year. And I know Love's over under.
Sorry to break make this about gambling. I know it's
over under. Is gonna be like early, But guys, I mean,
we could just go through some of these now. I
think he's a top ten talent. I'd see ESPN has
him is like number one. He's definitely a top ten talent.
(06:22):
I don't know that he's going one. So let's buzz
through it, right, Giants at one They're absolutely not taking
Jeremiah Love. He's just not going first. The Giants have
major needs on the offensive line. I mean they might
just take a quarterback. They actually have Skataboo Tyrom Tracy
like they can cobble together running backs. They're not taking
Jeremiah Love one. The Raiders obviously not, don't have a quarterback.
(06:44):
Just drafted gent Tennessee is interesting, right, You've got cam Ward.
The problem is Love is not the final piece to
the puzzle. Not for Tennessee. They don't have receivers. Their
tight ends are mediocre and don't tell me the gift
from Stanford. He's not even close to one. He might
be a three. Okay. The Tennessee Tennants don't have an
(07:06):
offensive line, so just forget Love to Tennessee. Cleveland a
lot of injuries on the old line, don't have a quarterback.
The running back room is actually not terrible. I like
what they have, so I don't see them taking Love
under any circumstances. My Jets, we got Breis Hall, we
got Braylan Allen. We're not taking a running back period.
Next topic, Arizona Cardinals. James Connor was amazing, got hurt
(07:30):
then came a guy whose name I'm spacing on, but
he was a very good backup Arizona Cardinals running back.
It's not the kid de Mercado who fumbled, but behind
Connor they had. I think the kid went to Oklahoma. No,
why am I not seeing him on their depth chart?
(07:52):
All I know is they had a backup to Connor
and he got hurt. Michael Carter's the running back there.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Now.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
I just don't see a world. Oh oh, it's Trey Benson.
That's the guy they've got Florida State. I'm my bad.
Trey Benson's pretty damn good. He was a third round
pick in twenty four. I don't. I mean, even if
they move on from Connor, which seems kind of unlikely,
I don't. They've got so many questions. Like their offensive
(08:20):
line is a nightmare. The wide receivers are good, the
tight end is excellent. I don't necessarily think of running
back as the final piece of the puzzle in Arizona.
I don't. At New Orleans, they think they have their
guy in Tyler Shuck. The offensive line is so bad, guys.
I mean, now Camaro's getting old, So maybe the Saints
makes sense. I don't see it because their offensive line
(08:40):
is so bad. If Shuck is your guy and Olave
looks like a keeper, you need to bolster that offensive line.
And there are two or three good tackles in this draft.
Washington is the first legit What do we have here?
You got Terry McLaurin, you got Jayden Daniels the offensive
line member, you invested in Tunsul at left tackle. You've
got some guys and they're running back room leaves a
(09:01):
little something to be desired. So I do believe Washington
is a legit landing spot for Jeremiah Love. I know
Chase Edmonds is okay, and McNichols is solid, and people
like Chris Rodriguez and they had the kid crosskey merrit
like I'm just I'm just saying, guys, I think Jeremiah
(09:22):
Love and Washington makes sense. Now, the defense is really
old and couldn't stop anybody, but I do think that
makes sense for Jeremiah Love. So the rounding out the
top ten Bengals, they're definitely not taking Love and the
Rams at ten. I don't see that with Korum and
Kirrien Williams thriving. So if you see an over under
(09:42):
of like six, I don't think you'll see that. You're
not gonna get anything yet. Obviously we got to wait
for the season end, but just just file that away.
On Jeremiah Love, who I like comparisons that I've seen
Reggie Bush, I don't think he's Reggie Bush. I saw
a Nick Chubb. I think he probably he has more
upside the job. I actually don't hate the Gibbs comparison.
(10:03):
I mean, this guy catches everything. He appears to be
a good blocker. We know he's a really tough runner,
super athletic. I think, I mean, I love that. I
think he could ease though I thought easily be Jamiir Gibbs,
who's like a top three back in the league. But
I do think there's something there.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
All right, now, finally, let me get to this. This
Nick Spurs game. First of all, NBA Cup is an
absolute home run. Adam Silver knocked it out of the
park with this totally incredible atmosphere, not only in Vegas,
but the Amazon Prime people did a great job on it.
The players clearly care deeply. This felt like an NBA
(10:55):
Finals game, and the game the semifinals between the Thunder
and Spurs that felt like an NBA Finals game or
a Western Conference finals. I guess I should say, but
I think the energy that the players are putting forth
jumps off the screen like this is high level basketball.
It's not your run of the mid December NBA game, which,
lets be real NBA action in December ain't great. Now,
(11:19):
the NBA Cup made it pretty damn great. And I'm
watching this game and I'm like, dude, Spurs are gonna
win this. They look so good. I'm just I'm blown
away by how fast the Spurs got awesome. And I
know I've been not a Spurs hater, but I've never
really loved the Spurs. I didn't love the Duncan Parker
(11:41):
Genobli dynasty. I thought they were boring. Plus they dispatched
my Lakers in the West. And then I definitely did
not like Kawhi Leonard. I honestly, I still remember where
I was when he was beating the KD. Curry Warriors
in Game one by like twenty two points. In the
third quarter and then he got hurt. I remember watching
(12:03):
that game being like, damn, is this really gonna happen?
Oh my gosh. I honestly still think that Warriors team
is the greatest team of all time, and Kawhi not
single handily, but he was leading the charge playing off
the charts in that game. He gets hurt on the
Zaza Pachulia kind of. You know, it became a rule
in the NBA after that, Kawhi goes down Warriors when
(12:26):
the game win the series. Warriors only lost one playoff game.
That that's the greatest postseason in NBA history. They went
sixteen in one. A couple teams, I think a couple
the Lakers went fifteen in one, the Kobe Shack Lakers
sixteen and one. Guys, that's on another level. Okay, yes,
one more game matters, and especially because when Kobe and
(12:49):
Shack did it, like they faced the Sixers in the finals, Like,
come on, that team was nothing special. That was who
their losses to. That was the tylu stepped over by
Allen iverson game. Anyways, you know, I just have never
been a huge Spurs fan. I mean, they moved to
get LaMarcus Aldridge, you know, And then I was like,
Spurs haven't done anything in a while. And then they
(13:09):
fall ass backwards into whom min Yama? Right, they draft Castle?
Who I'll just keep it a real guys. I think
Castle is already one of the best young players in
the league. I don't know that there's fifteen guys in
the NBA. I take over Castle right now. If I'm
building a team, obviously age matters, you know, so you know,
(13:32):
no disrespect to my guy Curry. But like Castle is
like twenty three years old. Ok, I'm sorry taking a
twenty three year old building a team over anybody in
like thirty three plus. Sorry, but like if I told
you who would you rather have Castle or Jalen Brown,
you got to think long and hard on that.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
For me.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
And I know it's early on Castle and I'm probably
going too overboard. I just think the skill set. I mean,
he showed off the playmaking last night against Nicksy guy
had twelve assists. He's not even considered a pure point
guard that's supposed to be deer in Fox. I mean,
this team is so fun to watch. I'm not gonna
lie kind of in love. And so when Benyama goes
(14:11):
off in the third quarter, has twelve points, hitting threes.
I mean he at one point, Castle, you know, was
chasing the ball out of bounds, threw it over the
backboard and Webbnyama just dunked it. I was like, oh
my goodness, I mean, you just throw it near the
rim and Wemby's flushing it. He hits two threes, two
middies at unbelievable quarter. It was really only like a
(14:32):
six minute stretch. They go up eleven, and I'm feeling great,
And Mike Brown of the New York Knicks did something
that the Knicks fans haven't seen in years because Thibodau
would never do this. Thibodeaux, you guys know, well we
talked about on this pod for like the last three years.
He grinds his players into dust. Okay, they lead the
(14:52):
league in minutes, he wears them down and then they
usually run out of gas in the postseason. Mike Brown,
sensing his team was in trouble, okay, at one point
they were down eleven late third, he went with a
lineup of Jalen Brunson, Tyler Kolek, who was a point
guard who I loved coming out of Marquette, lefty point guard.
(15:14):
Really nice game. He had a really tough march badness
exit that hurt me financially. And I'm just a fan
of his game. You know, if you go read about
Tyler Kolek, you know this is one of these like undersized,
underrecruited dudes. And then just grinds away and comes up
and Biggie's Player of the Year, and I just I
love that stuff. So Mike Brown trots out Brunson Colek,
(15:37):
Jordan Clarkson, who is the human heat check. I mean,
Jordan Clarkson. I mean, you guys think I'm jacking in
my men's league games. Jordan Clarkson gets the ball and
it's going up. He's putting on moves or jacking threes,
and he's going going to the mid rage flotation like
he is an unbelievable bucket. And his two bigs were
og who Anonnobi was amazing. I thought he should have
(15:58):
been MVP. He had twenty eight points. He could not
miss it felt like last night. And then Jay and
Mitchell Robinson was the fifth. So that's only two starters
and three bench guys. Okay, they go on a massive
run fueled essentially by Hey, Spurs, you can't turn us
over because guess what, we've got multiple point guards. We've
(16:21):
got multiple shooters. Kolek two for five from three, Clerkson
three for seven from three, Brunstond only shot one of
five OG five of ten. Essentially, they're shooting threes. And
Mitchell Robinson was just a hustle machine, seemingly getting every
fricking rebound. He had ten offensive boards in eighteen minutes.
(16:44):
It was an unbelievable performance. And he's smart enough he
doesn't go up I'm not going up against Cornett, who's
a shot blocker. I'm not going up against Wemby. I'm
kicking this out to one of my shooters and we're
hitting the three. And it kept happening, and all of
a sudden, the Spurs go from up eleven end of
the quarter up five. Seven minutes into the fourth third
down five, and that's when Mike Brown, I think stan
(17:07):
Van Gunny even said it. I don't think Kat's coming
back in the game. He was like sitting on the bench.
I think his feet were up with his warm up
like jacket on. I don't even know if he thought
he was coming back in he was pouting. Okay, so
Kat sits for the first seven minutes or the fourth
quarter of the NBA Cup Championship when they were trailing
heading in. Okay, just let that sink in. But it
(17:28):
wasn't just Kat. Mckail Bridges in a stunning development. I
had to double check the box score play by play twice.
Mkal Bridges did not play in the fourth. He's the starter.
I think he's in. Was he an eighty million dollar guy?
How many draft picks did they give up from five?
Not eighty million a year? But I think his contract
was four for eighty I don't remember. He's a core guy.
(17:49):
He didn't have it last night. Offensively, he did not
have it really Defensively, he was a team high minus ten.
He did not play in the fourth. And then Josh Hart.
You know, I love Josh Basically, I feel like my
game is Josh Hart. You know, hustle your butt off.
I don't get the boards like he does, but I
will be scrappy and play defense full full court and hustle,
(18:09):
make your threes. Love Josh Hart's game. He also sat
for the first seven minutes. It was an out of
body experience and because one Begyama was on the minister restriction,
he sat for a while. His third quarter unbelievable. By
the time he comes back in the fourth, he's settling
for jumpers, and at that point the Spurs just couldn't
pull it off. So I thought Mike Brown with an
(18:29):
awesome coaching job. I didn't think the announcers game enough credit.
I don't even know if I think they thought Bridges
was hurt because they didn't really talk about him. But
for Mike Brown to essentially bench three starters in the
fourth quarter of the NBA Cup Championship and ride Jordan
Clerkson and Tyler kolek Folks, that is a masterstroke. And
(18:54):
let's be real, one of the big knocks on Tibbs
was game man's me. He didn't want to play the
young guys. He didn't want to play the bench. This
is why the Knicks upgraded with Mike Brown, and that's
why they're the best team in the East. No disrespect
to the Pistons. Pistons obviously very very good, but I
think the ability for Mike Brown to see that, hey,
(19:15):
you know what, my starters, they're not giving it to
me tonight, but just can't throw in the ocean. He's
just not Heartheart's not giving me the defense I need.
And Kat, well, we know he can't. He doesn't play defense,
So let me ride bench. Guys. He changed it up.
It was a masterful stroke. Now, I will say about
the Spurs, this team, and again they're early to this,
(19:36):
so I don't you know, obviously fans are gonna be upset.
But this team, oh man, I'm not even kidding guys.
Dylan Harper, so he picks up Jayalen Brunson full court,
hounding him, gets it across half court. Harper pokes it loose,
brunts and grabs it, gets it over and back, and
I'm like, oh, I mean that's a rookie being like, yeah,
I'm gonna pick up runs it. Castle, my guy. You
(19:58):
know I love Castle. Stefan K. Cassle. I mean he
was tenacious guarding Brunson. Brunson got the MVP. Yes, I
like Bronson. Twenty five points on twenty seven shots. Okay,
not the picture of efficiency and this team. I mean
the interesting thing is, I know Harrison Barnes I couldn't
miss against the Lakers last week when the Spurs played
(20:19):
the Lakers. I just I mean Essentially, if you're playing
the Spurs, you basically say, I don't want Fox shooting it.
I don't want Vassal shooting and he's a good shooter.
I don't want Castle shooting it. What's his name, Harper?
The young guy had five threes. I mean Dylan Harper's freak,
(20:39):
the Rutgers kid. He's so good. I'll just let Harrison
Barr shoot it. And Harrison Barnes missed all his threes.
He I don't know that he fits now. He is
a veteran. You need a veteran presence. I'm wondering if
there's a tweak they can do with the deadline that
involves Barnes because Kelton Johnson solid. Remember he was like
an I don't know if he was an Olympian. He
(21:00):
was only something in USA basketball. They've got, they got got.
Jeremy Shohan was essentially the point guard last year for
this team. He registered a did not play coach's decision.
I probably should check the CEF. He's hurt, but yeah,
he doesn't play a lot. Wow, he didn't play in
(21:20):
the semifinal either, So he went from essentially starting. This
is a young kid from Baylor. He's a very toolsy
forward top ten pick. I mean, is there a world
where you could say, you know, we'll pack Carter Bryant.
They got a young kid that Spurs have a really
loaded young roster. Hey, we'll package Barnes and Jeremy Shohan
and let's get like a slightly upgraded wing. I mean again,
(21:44):
Sohya was a top ten pick. I'm not saying he's washed.
He's only twenty two, but I don't think you can
get Herb Jones. But man, if you could get a
lockdown wing defender who can make threes, Barnes ain't locking
anybody down. I'm sorry. Now, that guy could be Carter
Bryant when that would stunt his growth if they if
they brought on a Herb Jones, I don't think you
(22:06):
could get Herb Herb Jones for that little But the
Spurs are close, guys.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
And I'll be honest, I don't think there's a ton
of value betting full season NBA futures now because again,
one guy goes down and it's up and smoke. Spurs
are gonna be a very tough out if everybody's healthy
in the playoffs. And I don't know, Spurs, Thunder, Nuggets, Lakers, Yes,
(22:45):
the Lakers are in there. Stop maybe Minnesota. The West
is so stacked right now, it's it really is incredible.
How loaded the Western conferences? All right, that's a lot
of NBA. Listen, I'm not gonna lie. I'm excited you
guys could here yesterday. It's this Christmas slate. It's pretty sick.
(23:05):
It's pretty loaded. Cooper flag going for forty two. I mean,
what's there not to love? You've got this Warrior's owner
responding to a fan's email about how disappointed he is
and the coach. He essentially took a jab at Steve Kerr,
which I found surprising. So some random fans sent Joe
(23:26):
lacob a critical note after a game talking about, you know,
Jimmy Butler's underutilized and blah blah blah, what are we doing?
And the owner responded, it's complicated style of play. Coaches
desires regarding players. Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa. So this
(23:48):
guy went and posted on Breddit, of course, and the
Warrior's owner said, yeah, I sent the email. I'm sure
he regrets it. I don't know if I should say
this on us much much more, much, much smaller scale.
With the soccer team we own in Mexico, I often
get asked by people, Hey, what about this move and
(24:08):
blah blah blah, and and I get into the game.
I'm a minority owner, but I get super into the
games I'm following, and sometimes I respond maybe when I shouldn't.
And uh, regarding the sale of a player, I kind
of chimed in before the deal was done. It was
(24:30):
it was essentially done, and you know, someone was like, hey,
you gotta be careful with that stuff, you know, And
I was like, Oh, you don't realize how many people
follow the team. This isn't you know. It's it's just fun.
And I can imagine what Joe Lakeub's going through. Now
he's a big owner, he could do whatever hell he wants.
Me I'm small potatoes. I gotta be careful. But it
(24:52):
is interesting that, you know, we're at the stage now
where fans are emailing and reaching out to owners, and
then you put stuff online and it's like okay, Well,
Joe likeb be responding to any more fan emails. All right,
I have gone on along here tonight's football game. I
will not watch a second of it, because you know,
the holiday stuff begins in earnest. But I did bet
(25:12):
a college football bowl game. Don't rock with me. I
can't name one player on the team, but tonight, Oh no,
I'm sorry. This is in the afternoon. This is at
two o'clock Pacific, five Eastern, something called the Camping World
Stadium Bowl in Orlando. Old Dominion travels to Florida to
(25:35):
take on South Florida. USF was a three and a
half point favorite. I took Old Dominion at three and
a half. It's now down to two and a half.
Od U is the Monarchs. I only know ODU being
the Monarchs. Frankly, I didn't even know they were in
the Sun Belt because when I was a young guy
in college covering college basketball with JMU and Virginia Tech,
(26:02):
I remember covering the CAA now I don't even think
that league exists anymore. Tournament, and it was held in Richmond,
and ODU was kind of good back then, and I
remember ODU kind of dominating, and I was the Odu Monarchs.
I just you, guys know I love college basketball a
Lot's so fun. But yeah, I saw. I'm on ODU
plus three and a half. I cannot say whether or
(26:24):
not I take it at two and a half. They
played Indiana this season and lost a competitive game twenty
seven fourteen. It was the season opener. Mendoza was not
a heisin and ready Indiana rushed for three hundred and
nine yards. Well and do you, oh, do you actually
ran the ball? Well, so I'm gonna be rooting Monarchs
(26:46):
this afternoon. You're gonna rock with me? Great? If not,
I won't be upset. All right, We're back tomorrow. See
you
This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntire.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
What is up Straight Fire, Pam, It's me Jason McIntire,
Straight Foyer for Wednesday, December seventeenth. Oh boy, did we
have a good night in sports? And no, I'm not
talking about the Bowl game. I had no money on
last night's Bowl game. But at the end of the pod,
I'll tell you I do have some money I wanted
tonight's games. I don't know why I bet it, but
I did. It's in the account. I'll just tell you
(00:32):
at the end. NBA Cup was fuh phenomenal. Oh my gosh,
I cannot wait to dive into nick Spurs. It did
sting a little Not gonna lie guys. Back in I
think the first week of the season the Spurs played
I don't remember who was. I think it was like
there's they won their first game and then won their
second game. I was like, holy count, this team's trying hard.
(00:55):
Let me bet them to win the NBA Cup. I
got an amazing number of plus twenty six hundred and
it looks great when they beat Okay see going up
against my Knicks, you know, I was like, I'm a
Knicks fan. I love this next team. But I'd like
degreen a little more. And then the Spurs go up
by like eleven and the third I'm like, I'm stoked.
(01:15):
I like a lot.
Speaker 1 (01:16):
You know.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
The family we were wrapping up dinner and I'm like, guys, hey,
I got to just I'm about to get some more
Christmas funds if the Spurs can hold on here. Obviously
you don't really care about this stuff, but I'm in
a fantasy football league, and you know, it's kind of
a big buy in and you get paid for every
week to high score. It gets like a small amount,
(01:38):
and then at the end of the regular season, the
number one team gets significantly more than your buy in, right,
And I was number one most of the season, but
the number two guy was about to catch me in points.
He had Jalen Waddle and Wattle needed like thirteen points
against the Steelers to beat me. So the guy in
(01:58):
number two a buddy of mine. We play together. He's
a nice guy. He texts me. He's like, hey, j Mack,
how about a deal. Why don't we split the number
one seed money? So we both almost recoup our buy in, right,
because Wattle may get it, And I was like, that's interesting.
So then I look at the gambling odds. Wattle's not
(02:19):
projected to get you know, his over under for catches
and yards basically comes in under the thirteen points he needed.
So I was like, no deal, let's do uh sixty
five thirty five, And then you have a deal. And
you know, I love negotiating. And so my buddy comes
back after like twenty minutes. He's like, no, let's just
let it ride. And of course Wattle does like nothing,
(02:41):
He had like four points, so I win that. I'm like, guys,
look at that fantasy football season long boom, you get,
you want this, you got that, you know, like it
was a nice, nice victory, and I thought I had
that with the Spurs, and they blew it, but not
necessarily it blew it. Let me take that back. The Nicks.
Mike Brown pulled some unbelievable decisions out of his rear
(03:02):
end and the Knicks come away with the NBA Cup Championship.
Nicks fans are geeked, Oh my gosh, we finally won something.
Oh it's so amazing we won something. Obviously, it's exciting.
The next one. I think the way they want it
is more exciting, and we'll get to that in a
quick second. I did just want it before I dive in.
I will have a bet on Seahawks Rams Thursday night football.
(03:28):
It's not clear cut what it is. I'll save it
for tomorrow. We just locked in a good guest to
preview the college football playoff games, which crazily are sneaking
up this weekend. Right, you got the Alabama Oklahoma rematch Friday.
I don't think I'm gonna have anything on that. I'm
leaning Bama. I was digging into their first meeting and
(03:49):
basically Alabama dominated the game but just kept turning the
ball over. I don't know that that's gonna happen again.
I don't love this hole have to go to Oklahoma
and win it. That makes it tough for Alabama. I
may just watch the game. I don't know. You know,
I'm kind of a Tye Simpson honk. I don't mind
if the Jets got him in the second round anyways.
(04:09):
And that there's three games on Saturday plus two NFL games.
And you guys know, I graduated from James Vandison University.
So did the wife. We did not know each other
in college, and so we're JMU fans. We have some
buddies going up to Oregon. But come on a weekend
before basically Christmas. Are you kidding me? I no way
I could pull that off. And then Sunday you got
(04:31):
the full slate with really really good game, a couple
of really really good games. So it's just going to
be a monster sports weekend ahead. But I just I
quickly wanted to touch on this whole Jeremiah Love going
to the NFL Draft just briefly, so obviously I like
Notre Dame a lot. I was a little upset that
(04:52):
they didn't make the playoff. I did not have any
money on that though, But I saw Jeremiah Love announced
he's going to the Pros. It's interesting because obviously Love
is an immensely talented running back. But Ashton Genty just
went to the Raiders' top What do you go for
something in the top like six? And I don't want
to say he flopped, but year one was terrible. I
(05:14):
don't know that year two is going to be much better.
The Raiders are just a mess. I'm okay taking a
running back if it's one of the last pieces to
the puzzle in early right. Jamiir Gibbs goes to the Lions. Well,
the Lions were almost fully formed Montgomery goff. They had
the receivers, they had the tight ends, like they had
the offensive line. They didn't need much. They got Gibbs
(05:35):
and it was like, oh, we're making the jump to
light speed, right genty out of the Raiders said nothing.
They don't have a quarterback, they don't have an offensive line.
They got Brock Powers at tight end. I guess that's it.
They had Jacoby Myers and they shipped him like they're
not good. They should not have taken a running back
that early. So I'm looking at where Jeremiah Love could
land in the draft, and it's interesting because some of
(06:01):
these teams drafting at the top are basically right where
they were last year. And I know Love's over under.
Sorry to break make this about gambling. I know it's
over under. Is gonna be like early, But guys, I mean,
we could just go through some of these now. I
think he's a top ten talent. I'd see ESPN has
him is like number one. He's definitely a top ten talent.
(06:22):
I don't know that he's going one. So let's buzz
through it, right, Giants at one They're absolutely not taking
Jeremiah Love. He's just not going first. The Giants have
major needs on the offensive line. I mean they might
just take a quarterback. They actually have Skataboo Tyrom Tracy
like they can cobble together running backs. They're not taking
Jeremiah Love one. The Raiders obviously not, don't have a quarterback.
(06:44):
Just drafted gent Tennessee is interesting, right, You've got cam Ward.
The problem is Love is not the final piece to
the puzzle. Not for Tennessee. They don't have receivers. Their
tight ends are mediocre and don't tell me the gift
from Stanford. He's not even close to one. He might
be a three. Okay. The Tennessee Tennants don't have an
(07:06):
offensive line, so just forget Love to Tennessee. Cleveland a
lot of injuries on the old line, don't have a quarterback.
The running back room is actually not terrible. I like
what they have, so I don't see them taking Love
under any circumstances. My Jets, we got Breis Hall, we
got Braylan Allen. We're not taking a running back period.
Next topic, Arizona Cardinals. James Connor was amazing, got hurt
(07:30):
then came a guy whose name I'm spacing on, but
he was a very good backup Arizona Cardinals running back.
It's not the kid de Mercado who fumbled, but behind
Connor they had. I think the kid went to Oklahoma. No,
why am I not seeing him on their depth chart?
(07:52):
All I know is they had a backup to Connor
and he got hurt. Michael Carter's the running back there.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Now.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
I just don't see a world. Oh oh, it's Trey Benson.
That's the guy they've got Florida State. I'm my bad.
Trey Benson's pretty damn good. He was a third round
pick in twenty four. I don't. I mean, even if
they move on from Connor, which seems kind of unlikely,
I don't. They've got so many questions. Like their offensive
(08:20):
line is a nightmare. The wide receivers are good, the
tight end is excellent. I don't necessarily think of running
back as the final piece of the puzzle in Arizona.
I don't. At New Orleans, they think they have their
guy in Tyler Shuck. The offensive line is so bad, guys.
I mean, now Camaro's getting old, So maybe the Saints
makes sense. I don't see it because their offensive line
(08:40):
is so bad. If Shuck is your guy and Olave
looks like a keeper, you need to bolster that offensive line.
And there are two or three good tackles in this draft.
Washington is the first legit What do we have here?
You got Terry McLaurin, you got Jayden Daniels the offensive
line member, you invested in Tunsul at left tackle. You've
got some guys and they're running back room leaves a
(09:01):
little something to be desired. So I do believe Washington
is a legit landing spot for Jeremiah Love. I know
Chase Edmonds is okay, and McNichols is solid, and people
like Chris Rodriguez and they had the kid crosskey merrit
like I'm just I'm just saying, guys, I think Jeremiah
(09:22):
Love and Washington makes sense. Now, the defense is really
old and couldn't stop anybody, but I do think that
makes sense for Jeremiah Love. So the rounding out the
top ten Bengals, they're definitely not taking Love and the
Rams at ten. I don't see that with Korum and
Kirrien Williams thriving. So if you see an over under
(09:42):
of like six, I don't think you'll see that. You're
not gonna get anything yet. Obviously we got to wait
for the season end, but just just file that away.
On Jeremiah Love, who I like comparisons that I've seen
Reggie Bush, I don't think he's Reggie Bush. I saw
a Nick Chubb. I think he probably he has more
upside the job. I actually don't hate the Gibbs comparison.
(10:03):
I mean, this guy catches everything. He appears to be
a good blocker. We know he's a really tough runner,
super athletic. I think, I mean, I love that. I
think he could ease though I thought easily be Jamiir Gibbs,
who's like a top three back in the league. But
I do think there's something there.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
All right, now, finally, let me get to this. This
Nick Spurs game. First of all, NBA Cup is an
absolute home run. Adam Silver knocked it out of the
park with this totally incredible atmosphere, not only in Vegas,
but the Amazon Prime people did a great job on it.
The players clearly care deeply. This felt like an NBA
(10:55):
Finals game, and the game the semifinals between the Thunder
and Spurs that felt like an NBA Finals game or
a Western Conference finals. I guess I should say, but
I think the energy that the players are putting forth
jumps off the screen like this is high level basketball.
It's not your run of the mid December NBA game, which,
lets be real NBA action in December ain't great. Now,
(11:19):
the NBA Cup made it pretty damn great. And I'm
watching this game and I'm like, dude, Spurs are gonna
win this. They look so good. I'm just I'm blown
away by how fast the Spurs got awesome. And I
know I've been not a Spurs hater, but I've never
really loved the Spurs. I didn't love the Duncan Parker
(11:41):
Genobli dynasty. I thought they were boring. Plus they dispatched
my Lakers in the West. And then I definitely did
not like Kawhi Leonard. I honestly, I still remember where
I was when he was beating the KD. Curry Warriors
in Game one by like twenty two points. In the
third quarter and then he got hurt. I remember watching
(12:03):
that game being like, damn, is this really gonna happen?
Oh my gosh. I honestly still think that Warriors team
is the greatest team of all time, and Kawhi not
single handily, but he was leading the charge playing off
the charts in that game. He gets hurt on the
Zaza Pachulia kind of. You know, it became a rule
in the NBA after that, Kawhi goes down Warriors when
(12:26):
the game win the series. Warriors only lost one playoff game.
That that's the greatest postseason in NBA history. They went
sixteen in one. A couple teams, I think a couple
the Lakers went fifteen in one, the Kobe Shack Lakers
sixteen and one. Guys, that's on another level. Okay, yes,
one more game matters, and especially because when Kobe and
(12:49):
Shack did it, like they faced the Sixers in the finals, Like,
come on, that team was nothing special. That was who
their losses to. That was the tylu stepped over by
Allen iverson game. Anyways, you know, I just have never
been a huge Spurs fan. I mean, they moved to
get LaMarcus Aldridge, you know, And then I was like,
Spurs haven't done anything in a while. And then they
(13:09):
fall ass backwards into whom min Yama? Right, they draft Castle?
Who I'll just keep it a real guys. I think
Castle is already one of the best young players in
the league. I don't know that there's fifteen guys in
the NBA. I take over Castle right now. If I'm
building a team, obviously age matters, you know, so you know,
(13:32):
no disrespect to my guy Curry. But like Castle is
like twenty three years old. Ok, I'm sorry taking a
twenty three year old building a team over anybody in
like thirty three plus. Sorry, but like if I told
you who would you rather have Castle or Jalen Brown,
you got to think long and hard on that.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
For me.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
And I know it's early on Castle and I'm probably
going too overboard. I just think the skill set. I mean,
he showed off the playmaking last night against Nicksy guy
had twelve assists. He's not even considered a pure point
guard that's supposed to be deer in Fox. I mean,
this team is so fun to watch. I'm not gonna
lie kind of in love. And so when Benyama goes
(14:11):
off in the third quarter, has twelve points, hitting threes.
I mean he at one point, Castle, you know, was
chasing the ball out of bounds, threw it over the
backboard and Webbnyama just dunked it. I was like, oh
my goodness, I mean, you just throw it near the
rim and Wemby's flushing it. He hits two threes, two
middies at unbelievable quarter. It was really only like a
(14:32):
six minute stretch. They go up eleven, and I'm feeling great,
And Mike Brown of the New York Knicks did something
that the Knicks fans haven't seen in years because Thibodau
would never do this. Thibodeaux, you guys know, well we
talked about on this pod for like the last three years.
He grinds his players into dust. Okay, they lead the
(14:52):
league in minutes, he wears them down and then they
usually run out of gas in the postseason. Mike Brown,
sensing his team was in trouble, okay, at one point
they were down eleven late third, he went with a
lineup of Jalen Brunson, Tyler Kolek, who was a point
guard who I loved coming out of Marquette, lefty point guard.
(15:14):
Really nice game. He had a really tough march badness
exit that hurt me financially. And I'm just a fan
of his game. You know, if you go read about
Tyler Kolek, you know this is one of these like undersized,
underrecruited dudes. And then just grinds away and comes up
and Biggie's Player of the Year, and I just I
love that stuff. So Mike Brown trots out Brunson Colek,
(15:37):
Jordan Clarkson, who is the human heat check. I mean,
Jordan Clarkson. I mean, you guys think I'm jacking in
my men's league games. Jordan Clarkson gets the ball and
it's going up. He's putting on moves or jacking threes,
and he's going going to the mid rage flotation like
he is an unbelievable bucket. And his two bigs were
og who Anonnobi was amazing. I thought he should have
(15:58):
been MVP. He had twenty eight points. He could not
miss it felt like last night. And then Jay and
Mitchell Robinson was the fifth. So that's only two starters
and three bench guys. Okay, they go on a massive
run fueled essentially by Hey, Spurs, you can't turn us
over because guess what, we've got multiple point guards. We've
(16:21):
got multiple shooters. Kolek two for five from three, Clerkson
three for seven from three, Brunstond only shot one of
five OG five of ten. Essentially, they're shooting threes. And
Mitchell Robinson was just a hustle machine, seemingly getting every
fricking rebound. He had ten offensive boards in eighteen minutes.
(16:44):
It was an unbelievable performance. And he's smart enough he
doesn't go up I'm not going up against Cornett, who's
a shot blocker. I'm not going up against Wemby. I'm
kicking this out to one of my shooters and we're
hitting the three. And it kept happening, and all of
a sudden, the Spurs go from up eleven end of
the quarter up five. Seven minutes into the fourth third
down five, and that's when Mike Brown, I think stan
(17:07):
Van Gunny even said it. I don't think Kat's coming
back in the game. He was like sitting on the bench.
I think his feet were up with his warm up
like jacket on. I don't even know if he thought
he was coming back in he was pouting. Okay, so
Kat sits for the first seven minutes or the fourth
quarter of the NBA Cup Championship when they were trailing
heading in. Okay, just let that sink in. But it
(17:28):
wasn't just Kat. Mckail Bridges in a stunning development. I
had to double check the box score play by play twice.
Mkal Bridges did not play in the fourth. He's the starter.
I think he's in. Was he an eighty million dollar guy?
How many draft picks did they give up from five?
Not eighty million a year? But I think his contract
was four for eighty I don't remember. He's a core guy.
(17:49):
He didn't have it last night. Offensively, he did not
have it really Defensively, he was a team high minus ten.
He did not play in the fourth. And then Josh Hart.
You know, I love Josh Basically, I feel like my
game is Josh Hart. You know, hustle your butt off.
I don't get the boards like he does, but I
will be scrappy and play defense full full court and hustle,
(18:09):
make your threes. Love Josh Hart's game. He also sat
for the first seven minutes. It was an out of
body experience and because one Begyama was on the minister restriction,
he sat for a while. His third quarter unbelievable. By
the time he comes back in the fourth, he's settling
for jumpers, and at that point the Spurs just couldn't
pull it off. So I thought Mike Brown with an
(18:29):
awesome coaching job. I didn't think the announcers game enough credit.
I don't even know if I think they thought Bridges
was hurt because they didn't really talk about him. But
for Mike Brown to essentially bench three starters in the
fourth quarter of the NBA Cup Championship and ride Jordan
Clerkson and Tyler kolek Folks, that is a masterstroke. And
(18:54):
let's be real, one of the big knocks on Tibbs
was game man's me. He didn't want to play the
young guys. He didn't want to play the bench. This
is why the Knicks upgraded with Mike Brown, and that's
why they're the best team in the East. No disrespect
to the Pistons. Pistons obviously very very good, but I
think the ability for Mike Brown to see that, hey,
(19:15):
you know what, my starters, they're not giving it to
me tonight, but just can't throw in the ocean. He's
just not Heartheart's not giving me the defense I need.
And Kat, well, we know he can't. He doesn't play defense,
So let me ride bench. Guys. He changed it up.
It was a masterful stroke. Now, I will say about
the Spurs, this team, and again they're early to this,
(19:36):
so I don't you know, obviously fans are gonna be upset.
But this team, oh man, I'm not even kidding guys.
Dylan Harper, so he picks up Jayalen Brunson full court,
hounding him, gets it across half court. Harper pokes it loose,
brunts and grabs it, gets it over and back, and
I'm like, oh, I mean that's a rookie being like, yeah,
I'm gonna pick up runs it. Castle, my guy. You
(19:58):
know I love Castle. Stefan K. Cassle. I mean he
was tenacious guarding Brunson. Brunson got the MVP. Yes, I
like Bronson. Twenty five points on twenty seven shots. Okay,
not the picture of efficiency and this team. I mean
the interesting thing is, I know Harrison Barnes I couldn't
miss against the Lakers last week when the Spurs played
(20:19):
the Lakers. I just I mean Essentially, if you're playing
the Spurs, you basically say, I don't want Fox shooting it.
I don't want Vassal shooting and he's a good shooter.
I don't want Castle shooting it. What's his name, Harper?
The young guy had five threes. I mean Dylan Harper's freak,
(20:39):
the Rutgers kid. He's so good. I'll just let Harrison
Barr shoot it. And Harrison Barnes missed all his threes.
He I don't know that he fits now. He is
a veteran. You need a veteran presence. I'm wondering if
there's a tweak they can do with the deadline that
involves Barnes because Kelton Johnson solid. Remember he was like
an I don't know if he was an Olympian. He
(21:00):
was only something in USA basketball. They've got, they got got.
Jeremy Shohan was essentially the point guard last year for
this team. He registered a did not play coach's decision.
I probably should check the CEF. He's hurt, but yeah,
he doesn't play a lot. Wow, he didn't play in
(21:20):
the semifinal either, So he went from essentially starting. This
is a young kid from Baylor. He's a very toolsy
forward top ten pick. I mean, is there a world
where you could say, you know, we'll pack Carter Bryant.
They got a young kid that Spurs have a really
loaded young roster. Hey, we'll package Barnes and Jeremy Shohan
and let's get like a slightly upgraded wing. I mean again,
(21:44):
Sohya was a top ten pick. I'm not saying he's washed.
He's only twenty two, but I don't think you can
get Herb Jones. But man, if you could get a
lockdown wing defender who can make threes, Barnes ain't locking
anybody down. I'm sorry. Now, that guy could be Carter
Bryant when that would stunt his growth if they if
they brought on a Herb Jones, I don't think you
(22:06):
could get Herb Herb Jones for that little But the
Spurs are close, guys.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
And I'll be honest, I don't think there's a ton
of value betting full season NBA futures now because again,
one guy goes down and it's up and smoke. Spurs
are gonna be a very tough out if everybody's healthy
in the playoffs. And I don't know, Spurs, Thunder, Nuggets, Lakers, Yes,
(22:45):
the Lakers are in there. Stop maybe Minnesota. The West
is so stacked right now, it's it really is incredible.
How loaded the Western conferences? All right, that's a lot
of NBA. Listen, I'm not gonna lie. I'm excited you
guys could here yesterday. It's this Christmas slate. It's pretty sick.
(23:05):
It's pretty loaded. Cooper flag going for forty two. I mean,
what's there not to love? You've got this Warrior's owner
responding to a fan's email about how disappointed he is
and the coach. He essentially took a jab at Steve Kerr,
which I found surprising. So some random fans sent Joe
(23:26):
lacob a critical note after a game talking about, you know,
Jimmy Butler's underutilized and blah blah blah, what are we doing?
And the owner responded, it's complicated style of play. Coaches
desires regarding players. Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa. So this
(23:48):
guy went and posted on Breddit, of course, and the
Warrior's owner said, yeah, I sent the email. I'm sure
he regrets it. I don't know if I should say
this on us much much more, much, much smaller scale.
With the soccer team we own in Mexico, I often
get asked by people, Hey, what about this move and
(24:08):
blah blah blah, and and I get into the game.
I'm a minority owner, but I get super into the
games I'm following, and sometimes I respond maybe when I shouldn't.
And uh, regarding the sale of a player, I kind
of chimed in before the deal was done. It was
(24:30):
it was essentially done, and you know, someone was like, hey,
you gotta be careful with that stuff, you know, And
I was like, Oh, you don't realize how many people
follow the team. This isn't you know. It's it's just fun.
And I can imagine what Joe Lakeub's going through. Now
he's a big owner, he could do whatever hell he wants.
Me I'm small potatoes. I gotta be careful. But it
(24:52):
is interesting that, you know, we're at the stage now
where fans are emailing and reaching out to owners, and
then you put stuff online and it's like okay, Well,
Joe likeb be responding to any more fan emails. All right,
I have gone on along here tonight's football game. I
will not watch a second of it, because you know,
the holiday stuff begins in earnest. But I did bet
(25:12):
a college football bowl game. Don't rock with me. I
can't name one player on the team, but tonight, Oh no,
I'm sorry. This is in the afternoon. This is at
two o'clock Pacific, five Eastern, something called the Camping World
Stadium Bowl in Orlando. Old Dominion travels to Florida to
(25:35):
take on South Florida. USF was a three and a
half point favorite. I took Old Dominion at three and
a half. It's now down to two and a half.
Od U is the Monarchs. I only know ODU being
the Monarchs. Frankly, I didn't even know they were in
the Sun Belt because when I was a young guy
in college covering college basketball with JMU and Virginia Tech,
(26:02):
I remember covering the CAA now I don't even think
that league exists anymore. Tournament, and it was held in Richmond,
and ODU was kind of good back then, and I
remember ODU kind of dominating, and I was the Odu Monarchs.
I just you, guys know I love college basketball a
Lot's so fun. But yeah, I saw. I'm on ODU
plus three and a half. I cannot say whether or
(26:24):
not I take it at two and a half. They
played Indiana this season and lost a competitive game twenty
seven fourteen. It was the season opener. Mendoza was not
a heisin and ready Indiana rushed for three hundred and
nine yards. Well and do you, oh, do you actually
ran the ball? Well, so I'm gonna be rooting Monarchs
(26:46):
this afternoon. You're gonna rock with me? Great? If not,
I won't be upset. All right, We're back tomorrow. See
you

On Purpose with Jay Shetty
I’m Jay Shetty host of On Purpose the worlds #1 Mental Health podcast and I’m so grateful you found us. I started this podcast 5 years ago to invite you into conversations and workshops that are designed to help make you happier, healthier and more healed. I believe that when you (yes you) feel seen, heard and understood you’re able to deal with relationship struggles, work challenges and life’s ups and downs with more ease and grace. I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before. New episodes every Monday and Friday. Your support means the world to me and I don’t take it for granted — click the follow button and leave a review to help us spread the love with On Purpose. I can’t wait for you to listen to your first or 500th episode!
