I must remind you throughout the night, and I will
do that. Our lead story though, don't bear the lead,
my man, don't bear the lead.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
All right, We're not gonna bear lead. So continues to be.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Everyone is talking about this the game the other night
at Madison Square Garden, and we have a new chapter
to dissect from the greatest choke job in bouncy ball
history right there. The NBA released its last two minute
report for Game four of the NBA Finals, as it
(05:09):
is a game that we'll remember at least for a
couple more days, and then we'll forget about it and think.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
About something else. And fair to say, they added salt to.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
The wound the NBA, as the Spurs had the single
greatest collapse.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
That you can have in a basketball game of meaning.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
So if you didn't see this and maybe not the report,
the last two minute report found a major error. And
this is a little over a minute left the Spurs
guards to fon. Castle was dribbling along the baseline trying
to go around underneath the basket, and he was called
(05:51):
for out of bounds and out of bounds violation, which
would have been fine if he had actually stepped out
of bounds. He did not, helping the Knicks out, gave
New York that call incorrectly. The NBA says the day
after the report says that josh Hart should have could
have would have been called for a foul instead if
(06:13):
the officials had done their job. He impeded Stefan Castle
on that drive, so josh Hart got away with one.
And at that moment when that play happened, the Knickerbockers
had a one point lead after a Jalen Brunson shot
and so the Knicks were out of team fouls. Castle
(06:34):
would have walked all the way to the foul line
and would have had a chance to shoot a couple
of foul shots. He was eight eight for eight from
the cherity strip. I believe my math is correct in
that game, so it is reasonable to assume the position
that he would have likely made both of those foul shots,
which would have flipped the game from New York.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Up by one to the Spurs up by one.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Alas, that did not happened because of incompetence by the
NBA referees.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
And now people saying, see sen.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Antonio Award, the NBA wanted the Knicks to win. That's
what happened, all right. So that's a good jumping off point.
Let us discuss the question. We've now had some time
to process everything that took place the other day, so
we're processing everything, and the question did the NBA referees
cost the Spurs the victory because of that wrong call
(07:28):
on Stefan Castle, which, oh, by the way, the nick
cheerleading broadcaster did not mention Mike Breen had his Knicks
onesie on as he was calling the game. So my
thoughts on this, I have Mary Poppins, Rodeo Ruter, and
Pyromaniac and we will combine all of these things together,
and we were going to zoom along, zoom zoom zoom,
(07:50):
all right. So a to answer the question, did the
NBA referees cost the Spurs the victory with that incorrect
call on Stefan Castle. I'm give this one side eye,
is what I'm doing. Come on now, The referees did
not help. However, These Spurs literally dropped a piano on
their own heads, which is very hard to do, all right,
(08:11):
very hard to do.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
I mean, just keeping it real here.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
The last two minute report is a distraction from the
real story here. So let's not avoid the real story.
The biggest Finals choke in NBA history, all right, that
was not a collapse. That was Malfeasan's malpractice, a total
dereliction of duties. You simply cannot blow a twenty nine
point lead and then go on, I guess file what
(08:36):
a complaint with HR because of the referees. Did the
refs make a mistake? Absolutely, they made a mistake. The
Spurs made forty of them. Forty of them they made
blowing a twenty nine point lead. The Spurs did not
lose because of a whistle. They lost because of spontaneous
human combustion. They burned up baby wemby fox Castle. Everyone
(09:00):
on this group project for San Antonio gets an f
The Knicks shouldn't have even been in the same time
zone to have a chance at the end of that
game for the referees to help them out. San Antonio said, well,
you know what, I know, you shouldn't be in our
time zone. We're gonna book you a nice presidential suite
at the hotel.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
We're gonna help you out. And Wemby, as we mentioned.
Speaker 1 (09:21):
The other night, he got his pilot's license. Now he's
qualified to fly the Vomit Comet. And then you've got
Dearon Fox who hit the self destruct button, and Mitch
Johnson who turned Professor Doom, and all these things up.
You can't blame that one call as to why you
lost this game, and if you do, you're confused.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
My advice, I'd like to quote the Great Mary Poppins.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, helps
the medicine go down. It was super califragilistic, xpialidocious the
way they choked, and the medicine, by the way, for
the spurs, tastes like battery acid and they got to
swallow all of that. I mean, that's the whole sermon
right there, past the collection plate. Now, meanwhile, we go
to Texas Deep in the heart of Texas, and that
(10:06):
is where a hostile takeover is underway. We are told
the Knicks fans, and these are people that have phones
with area codes from New York and New Jersey, have
bought almost fifty percent of the tickets for the game
on Saturday, Game five in the Alamo City. Keep in
(10:29):
mind this is despite the best laid plans of mice
men and employees of the San Antonio Spurs who attempted
to blockade the Knickerbocker fans from the arena.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
And by all.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Accounts, if this is accurate, at half the tickets nearly
half purchased by Nick fans, that would mean they are
going to turn these Spurs home elimination game into a
de facto road environment for the home team. So the
question will and going to compare notes, it will the
Knicks fans take over? Will the Knick fans take over
(11:05):
of the gymnasium there in San Antonio give New York
an extra edge on Saturday?
Speaker 2 (11:12):
So my position on this is.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
No, Nope, it's an unpopular opinion.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
I know you're.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Supposed to say, oh man, there's no way the Spurs
are gonna be able to win because the buzzsaw of
Spike Lee and all these other dopey New York celebrities
out there shaking their pom poms.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
No, the Knick fans turning I think is called Frost
Bank Center.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
I think turning that arena, whatever it's called in the
Madison Square Garden South, does not move the needle for me.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
The only thing rattling the Spurs is the Spurs. That's it.
The days and this has been this way for a
long time, the.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Days of fans pushing a team over the top helping
to decide the outcome of games. That is an archaic
take from back in the Stone Age.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
To travel.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Everything's VIP, first class, all that stuff. And while the
Nick fan base has unbelievable enthusiasm, so they can chuck
stuff at Victor Winbanyama and dance around like lunatics after
a win, which is not a championship win, it is
not gonna have any impact on the outcome in terms
of the way the Spurs play. This is not like
the Knick fans did not give New York an edge
(12:25):
in the games at Madison Square Garden and they're not
gonna do it in San Jo. The Spurs took care
of this themselves. It wasn't because any of New York.
It wasn't because Taylor Swift was dancing the entire game
on the sidelines. Here and all this does is give
the Spurs an audience, a different audience for another collapse.
And the issue here, and there's really no way around it,
(12:47):
is San Antonio has an underlying condition. They don't need
a coach that, they don't need a pep talk, they
need a trained professional from roto ruter. Now it's been
said that pipes burst from pressure. So do the Spurs
from clogg to clear in no time. All three losses
(13:10):
were what we call ifs and butts games. All three
ifs and butts were candy and nuts. The Spurs would have,
could have should have won all three, And congratulations to
San Antonio. They keep inventing new ways to cough up
fur balls in the finals. They're just just handing it
over to the next They're basically the Pixar of panic
(13:30):
at this particular point, from being outscored eleven nothing to
close game one at home, then having Wemby miss a
wide open shot in Game two that would have won
the game. A shot in minds you that your beloved
talk show host makes ten out of ten times.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
It's like leaving the garage door open overnight.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
And then the masterpiece the Mona Lisa blowing a twenty
nine point third quarter lead in Game four. That is
spontaneous busting is what that is. And so the Spurs,
they don't lose games. They they're very charitable, they donate games.
They are the better team. They just choke. They're obviously
(14:12):
more talented.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Than the Knicks.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
The Knicks are able to pull these games off, but
the Spurs are the more talented team. They're qualified. Now,
good news for the Spurs. They're qualified to teach a
masterclass on wilting under pressure. The syllabus updated nightly during
the NBA Finals. All Right, last word, we're gonna move
away from basketball. Some NFL stuff I wanted to get to.
We get a lot of bills mafia. I say a lot,
(14:36):
at least five that have reached out to me over
the years that are fans of the show. Some of
them work at night, a lot of them. Three of
the five I know are day guys. Anyway, some excitement.
I guess there's some online buzz about Stefan Diggs and
apparently he posted some old highlights and some interactions with
(14:56):
Dion Dawkins and CJ. Gardner Johnson and who's now apparently
on the Bills, and that has sparked chatter. We of
our chatter of a reunion between Stefon Diggs and.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
The team in Buffalo.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
So the question what are the chances that free agent
wide receiver Stefawn Diggs returns to the Bills. So on
the Malor scale of probability one to ten, with ten
come on back, now, come on back, now, come home.
For Stefon Diggs scale of one to ten, Diggs reunion
(15:34):
is at a zero point seven on the Malor scale
of probability.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
That is not a mistake. That is a health warning,
is what that is.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
Now, Diggs returning the Bills would be kind of like
getting back together with the pyromaniac X who was really
hot and also torched your house because she needed closure. Okay,
he didn't turn a new cheek by leaving the Bills.
(16:05):
He went to the Texans and the Patriots, and it
is the same shtick in Houston and New England. And
he didn't just burn Bridges on his way out of
Western New York.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Stefon Diggs.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
He brought dynamite and he had a permit from the
State of New York for demolition.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
He's doing some.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Demo there and the bills have they have digs on
the permanent He's in the permanent spam folder. You know how,
I've blocked Blind Scott because he's threatening to kill me
a bunch of times over the years. So I blocked
Blind Scott, our guy from Boston, and I just don't
even get.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
His emails anymore.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Diggs is the same thing the bills have blocked. If
his name pops up on caller ID, it goes straight
to voicemail and Buffalo.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Would rather gamble on the mystery box.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
DJ Moore coming off a bad year in Chicago, a
rookie named Skuyler Moore.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
I believe he's the guy's name.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
They'd rather take their chances than reopen the file titled digs.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Besides that, he's thirty two, Stefan Diggs.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
He's just not old in the real world, but in
sports are at the end of your prime, coming off
injuries and the insurance table.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
If you look at it, it's it's.
Speaker 1 (17:12):
