Speaker 1 (00:00):
He we go.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Welcome, it's our nber one.
Speaker 3 (00:05):
Our one.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
We're back at it the original Recipe podcast, A Happy
Monday to you. It is the twenty first day of
April and you smell that. You know what that is?
That it's not that now. This is the NFL Draft
week beginning. But we start out with pro bouncy ball.
Who gets the blame Bowl from the playoffs? Blame Bowl
of tex mex for the Rockets losing at home? Also,
(00:30):
how is Steph Curry feeling about his Golden State Warriors
performance and the playoffs a road win. Grizzly star John
Morant attempted to reassure the fan base that everything was
going to be okay, saying we will never play that
bad again after a fifty one point beat down by Okac.
Is that strong enough? And do you believe the Celtics
(00:52):
Jason Tatum when he says his.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Wrist is all right? We'll talk about all of that
and more.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Buckle up, it's our number one in all weekends basketball poloser,
it was like one or two DC games. Welcome in
the beginning of another week of the Ben Malor Show.
(01:20):
We are in the air everywhares we rub elbows, and
boy do we rub them from the theater of the mine,
coast to coast, border, the border and beyond on the
vast in tantalizingly powerful microphones of FSR emmating live from
(01:41):
inside the greasy spoon, frying up, piping Hot Sports takes
under the cover of darkness from the Fox Sports radio
studios as we hang out side by side, and we
begin the festivius of talk here with the last game
that was played in it was eastern night. Now still
(02:04):
on the west, it's still Eastern night, but the end
of day two of the NBA card And I don't
know if you were watching all this, maybe a she's
do something else, But I checked it out. I consumed
the product. It kind of goes with the job. So
we watched it so you would not have to to
comment to comment on the events that took place over
(02:27):
the weekend.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
So pro bouncy ball.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
If you hate pro bouncy ball, you're not gonna like
the next couple of months because it's cann be a
lot of pro bouncy ball. But we do have the
NFL's draft which is coming up later this week, which
is which is a good NFL draft so.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
We have that to break it up.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
But we're gonna start in the lone Star State where
the number two seated rock Cats. We're playing host to
the Stephen Curry numbers seven. Numbers seven. We don't have
a seven.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
I don't have a button. We don't have it. We
need it set.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
We need the ones, the two, the trees, the fours,
the five, the sixth, the seventh, the eights, and the nines.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
We need. If we have all of those, we're good.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
So we can have random listers just call up and
just start singing different numbers, and then we have every number.
And then we're gonna need the a's, the b's, the c's,
the d's, the e's, them will go through the whole
alphabet and we'll have a letter and we'll have a
number for everything.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
But anyway, I don't saw the game or not. It
was the last game they played.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
It ended not too long before we cracked the microphones
here on on FSR. So the Warriors trailed for very little,
like none they dominated, I.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Mean early, very early in the game.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
But the wars led by as many as twenty three
points and then there was as it typically happens, Houston
snaked their way back into the game a little bit
down by nine entering the fourth quarter. I never got
the feeling that the Rockets were going to actually win
the game. Uh, and that turned out to be the case.
My premonition was accurate. Jephan Curry twelve of nineteen from
(04:02):
the four, did not hit a three point shot for
a while, but then ended up five of nine from
three point land and Jimmy Butler getting her done there
with twenty five points, seven rebound, six assists, five steals,
and a partridge in a paar tree. As a Game
two will be played next month. No Game two will
(04:22):
be Wednesday, because you know, it's very difficult to play
games more than two days apart, my god, So they'll
the next game will be on Wednesday there and in Houston,
so they will continue. You know the way it works here,
the better story is in the losing locker room. And
so let us discuss the events that took place there
(04:42):
in Houston.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Who gets the.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Blame Bowl of tex mex for the Roquettes as they
lose home court advantage in their first game out in
this particular series. So I have brand ambassadors Sandwich Board
and Hall Pass and we will combine all of these
(05:04):
things together and we are going to make a wonderful,
delicious plate filled with banana cream pie.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
It's a little dish there with banana cream pie. All right.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
So a the Sins watching the Rockets, and the Rockets
are a physically talented team, they're a younger team. They
won a bunch of games actually tried during the regular season,
and so you racked up a lot of wins and
all that stuff. And it's great. But the way you
look at these things, it's Occam's razor. The most obvious
is usually the right answer on these things. And I
(05:39):
mean people overlook the obvious to try to find more
complex explanations for the outcome of events.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
I don't believe it's that deep. It's just sports. It's
not that deep.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
And it's right in front of your schnaz right in
front of your schnaz. Here when you look at it,
you got Jalen Green on one side and Fred van
Vliet on the other side. High crimes and misdemeanors for
these two. Who stinks well, those two right off the top. Now,
it was like an urban legend playing out in the NBA.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Playoffs, right in front of a horizon.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
And now normally it's just the vanishing hitchhiker that just
gets in the car and then you don't know where
they went and what happened, and or you see them
off in the distance, you get closer than not there.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
You don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
But these guys Green and Van Vliet were brand ambassadors
for preparation.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
They played like they had hemorrhoids, and watching them, you
thought you had hemorrhoids.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
How bad was it? It was so bad.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Jalen Green three of fifteen from the floor, all four
from downtown. Van Vliet, who's got playoff experience from the
stays in Toronto, four of nineteen.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
From the floor.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
So, if you do the math, the Rockets starting backcourt
was outscored by twenty eight points by Golden State, just
backcourt to backcourt Mono Amano. The Warriors starting backcourt shot
fifty three percent from the floor. The Rockheads starting backcourt
(07:13):
attempted a total of thirty four shots and they made
seven of them, which sucks anywhere you go. The rest
of the team, the Rockets, if you take the back
court out right in the ifson Bots Candy nuts the
rest of the back court or the rest of the
front court and everyone else outscored the Warriors by eighteen.
How about on the other side, you've got Stephen Curry
(07:36):
and how is he feeling? How's Golden State feeling right
about now? After this performance in game one? So this
is the blueprint. It's kind of clear that this is
the blueprint, right and nothing radical.
Speaker 4 (07:48):
This is why they went on.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Got Jimmy Butler, playoff Jimmy as the legend goes Jimmy Butler.
It was a prototypical type performance. And fortunately the NBA
giving the Warriors lots of time off in between games,
so they don't they don't have to worry about that
little rest and relaxation. Enjoy Houston to go back out
and play on Wednesday. Now to the dust ball A
game that was so bad? How bad was it was
(08:11):
so bad? We need to mention the number one seed
number in the entire NBA Oklahoma City in the Western Conference.
There they put on a clinic and it wasn't just
a click. I don't believe that does justice to what
happened in this particular game. The smashing of the grizz
in Memphis. Memphis has completely torn to bits in Okay
(08:34):
see now a fifty one point margin.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
An NBA team that made.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
The playoffs, granted they were in the plane, lost a
game by fifty one points.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Do you know how.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Bad one has to play to lose a game by
fifty one points?
Speaker 4 (08:52):
And it's just stunning.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
And now John Morant attempted to reassure the fan base
that things are going to be okay, that it will
never get this bad again.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
Let's go to the audio tape. Take a listen, No
play that about it again.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Defensive intensity, they had a lot of easy looks which
pretty much getting to, you know, wherever they wanted on
the floor, and offensively taking care of the ball.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Defensive intensity.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
I think my fat ass could have played better defense
than those guys. There was no defensive intendit all right, So,
Ja Moran, they're not real confident. As he attempted to
reassure the fan base that everything will be okay, and
he said that money quote, we will never play that
bad again. Is that strong enough? Well that was a
rhetorical question. Of course, it's not strong enough. No, you're
(09:44):
supposed to be the franchise player here. I am a
franchise were here. I'm talking about a game, a playoff game,
a playoff we we lost by fifty one points. My god,
fire the coach again. Where's Taylor Jenkins? Fire him again?
Not the coach, Fire him again. You've lost a player
game by fifty one points. And I flashed back years
ago when I started out and radio, I covered the
(10:05):
NBA regularly and one of the people he's long gone now,
Bill Fitch. It was a Hall of Fame coach, and
he explained to me that no matter how bad one
team is compared to the other team in terms of talent,
perceive the perception of talent. He explained to me, if
the lesser team plays with the proper effort and energy
and plays the fundamentally sound way of basketball, they will
(10:28):
not get blown out. That if you just put the
effort in that you can close the gap, the talent gap.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
And I watched, I was like, whoa that is?
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I thought maybe my phone had glitched when I looked
at the score, and I was like, I must not
be right. Maybe somebody hacked the website that I used
to look at the score. And then I turned it
on and I was like, oh my god, what a monstrosity.
This is unbelievable. I mean Holy Canoley, This is not
the vomit comment. That the vomit comment is not strong
(11:01):
enough here. This is somebody needs to be court martialed.
There needs to be a court martial here. Naming and shaming.
I'm talking about sensing multiple people, and you can go
down the list. There's like seven or eight prime suspects
here who need to wear the sandwich board and walk
outside the arena, and the sandwich board can point out
(11:23):
how they violated the tenants of basketball competition and all that,
and they're guilty of dereliction of duties.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Man.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
That is what to do.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Is a game by fifty one points. I mean, oh,
Oklahoma City's great, They're not that much greater than Memphis,
Mike got all right. Now, Last word to Boston we go,
where the Celtics were trailing midway through, but in the
end they dominated when they they pulled away there in
(11:57):
the second half and they end up winning. Jason Tatum, though,
the story not the game with Orlando. The story is
Jason Tatum. Was it a snap crackle pop situation? Tatum?
He came down tumbling down on his wrist, Oh my
aching wrist, and they'll postgame X ray situation for Jason Tatum.
He said of his right wrist, it was clean, the
(12:21):
X ray said, he said it was clean, and he
was all right, all right, he said.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
He came down there in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
As Jason Tatum ended up playing, he had seven, you know,
seventeen points eight of twenty two, didn't do much anything
early in the game, played nearly forty minutes of game time.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
Here.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
The injury happened with eight twenty eight to go in
the fourth quarter and he was driving for a dunk
attempt at the rim and ow aUI aUI Kazawi. I
think that's the actual son aUI Kazawi's what he said.
Possibly not, So question, do you believe Do you believe
(13:02):
Jason Tatum when he says his wrist is all right,
and he also said the x rays were cleaned?
Speaker 4 (13:08):
You believe? Do you believe all that? So my position
on this is whether the X ray was clean or not.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I assume it was, and him saying he's all right,
My position on that is it's not cracked, right, It's
not cracked. However, Tatum now has something very valuable for
the next three or four games, possibly longer than that.
He's got a hall pass, he starts clanking up missus,
(13:34):
he's got well, you know, it's in my wrist, and
I'm trying to fight through it, trying to fight through
the wrist problem. And he's got the immunity papers. If
he starts making a brick house, the old brick house there,
clanking jumpers right and left and just not being very efficient.
So this has the makings of what a gentleman's sweep,
(13:56):
as they like to call it in the playoffs, where
you end.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Up winning the games at home.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
You lose game three, and then you bounce back and
win the next couple and win in five, and that's
that the Celtics flipping the switch in the second half
of that game, and so they end up winning by
a comfortable margin at home against Orlando. Will take your
calls on any of this. If you would like to
be part, we will release the hounds. We'll open up
the phone lines right now. You can start the party
(14:23):
at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven

X at Ben Mahlor, that's at Ben Mahlor. If you
want to be part, and someone that had been off
the grid, someone that had been living like in a
shack in Montana, popped up out of nowhere randomly to
(14:48):
make it all about them, all about them over the
week at a very well known figure in sports, and
they brought the atomic elbow down from the upper rope.
What was that all about. We'll get to it, we'll
break it down, and we will do it.

Well, you might want to go somewhere else then, you know,
I don't think it gets I don't know. I have
no idea, but I'm assuming that I've been to Seattle.
I assume it's just a little further north north than Seattle,
so I assume the weather is pretty similar to Seattle,
and that time of the year. Probably fine, maybe we'll rain.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
You know what, if it does rain, I could get
an umbrella.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
Oh that'd be exciting. I love it.

might be somebody that walks out with a bag of
them on the street there and said, you want one
twenty bucks colecting umbrellas.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
I have the flamingo one that ends all by itself.
Speaker 4 (17:46):

the big bucket of umbrellas.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
Where are those umbrellas?

guy with umbrella where those umbrellas. Well, he goes months
here without raining and there's always those umbrellas. They always
have the umbrella.

I feel like no one's going to show up.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
We're not promoting it.

That's all I know.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
But you don't talk about the NBA Playoffs, especially this
Warriors Rockets game. Now, this was a brutal performance for Houston.
I mean it was just terrible, like you were saying.
And the fun fact about that is the Warriors are
actually twenty nine and one on the road, So like
Houston fans, they were probably thinking, oh, this is a
home court advantage. You know, we're gonna go in here,
it's going to be easy, and I think they kind
(23:44):
of underestimated it and how good the Warriors are on
the road, because like, the only guy that was actually
like half trying and he actually did pretty decent for
the Rockets was a Shanng Goon. That was the only
guy that was doing some sort of out of like
the big star players. The only guy doing something some
sort of work like we had, like you said, Fred
vev Lee, absolutely horrible. It was in the abomination of
(24:07):
a game. Just like you're the guy with the playoff experience,
like you said, Man, you're supposed to be the leader.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
And where did you get the twenty nine and one
stat Did you pull that out of your ass or
something like that?
Speaker 1 (24:17):
What do you a friend of the show, Kevin Harlan.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Really because they didn't go twenty nine and they didn't
win twenty nine out of thirty on the roads.
Speaker 4 (24:25):
I don't know where you got that.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Yeah, I mean Kevin Harlan's producer, because you know, he
probably didn't have that, Stuy. It was probably some some
dude who's working in the hall today that doesn't really
know basketball.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
I mean, they were they were fine on the road.
They did the same record on the road as they
did at home. Golden State. It wasn't you know, maybe
they played well with Jimmy Butler on the road, but
I think it was in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
It was in the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
I would guarantee they haven't gone twenty nine and one
in the playoffs on the road even factly, Yeah, well,
we don't need to fag them.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
It's just there's no way I don't need I need
a double check. And they haven't gone.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
They won twenty nine out of thirty road games in
the playoffs the Golden State War Otherwise that they have
seven championships in the last nine years or something.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
They don't they have like six or five.
Speaker 4 (25:12):
So there, it's been been a few years since that.
Those days are in the past.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
I mean like when they got that last championship.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
I mean it's twenty twenty five right now. So it's
got a thing.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Ben, It's like all these games, you know, like sometimes
they're playing too.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
You're trying to defend your stack, your status bogus. You're
trying to defend a bogus stats bat job by you.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
What did you say this?
Speaker 2 (25:31):
He said the Warriors, I went twenty nine out of
thirty on the road, which isn't true like all time,
like the last playoff series, Like there's a bigger than
bogus stat. By the way, this bogus stat may is
possible by hold on giving it doing a raid made
possible by Express employment professionals. They can provide contract workers
(25:52):
to flex up for peak seasons without having to raise
your core workforce head count, manage your workforce differently. Is
it expresspros dot com today? That's expresspros dot com. Did
you think I wasn't gonna catch your bogus stat Is
that what you're doing? You thought, Hey, I can slip
this one past mall. Or he's not even listening. He's
not even gonna listen.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Maybe he is, you know, maybe he's chilling in Houston
right now. We just had some tax Max. I mean,
you never.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Know, well, Carl's probably his hotel room right now. Why
watching YouTube or something.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
I don't always did you hear what he said?
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I don't know if anyone like had the volume up
when they're watching the game. But he was like, yeah,
if you want to order your Dependence from Walmart because
they were doing some Walmart sponsorship and ready he's like, whoa,
what are you saying there? And then he's like, no,
I'm for the people. I'm Kevin Harland for the people.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
That's right. You gotta do it for the people.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Man.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
That's good.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
That's how he does those reads. You gotta do those
reads like that. That's good advertising. You gotta sell the soap.
You gotta sell the soap Blindmxactly, it's all about selling
the soap or the diapers, the adult diapers, and you
gotta sell the adult diapers.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
All right, thank you, go away.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
All right, there's the great They look at that blind Emmitt,
the Seahawks fan, and what a flying start we are
off due unbelievable. So, coming out of nowhere randomly over
the weekend was someone that I dealt with a lot
back in the day, hadn't really heard much of him.
I don't know what he's doing these days, just kind
(27:16):
of hanging out, living life. And that would be Phil Jackson.
Did you see the old Bulls coach and Lakers coach
Phil Jackson who randomly showed up on social media and
took a shot at the NBA. He said again the NBA, Hey,
he is a quote from Jackson on social media, say again,
(27:38):
the NBA test faith by playing multiple games on Christmas
and Easter. He points out right upset by that. He said,
these are sacred days, should not be playing. The implication
obviously they should not be playing on Christmas and Easter.
(27:58):
As Phil, it's good to know he has worked in
the NBA in a number of years, but he's still
got that.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Grudge the league.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
And the reason Phil, I think Phil knows this, they
play those games is because people watch those games. They say, well,
people shouldn't watch those games. Are you supposed to shut
everything down on on certain holidays? And I have no
alternative programming. Typically, It's like I always looking at this,
like Thanksgiving. There's always been NFL games on Thanksgiving, And
(28:29):
typically you spend time with your family.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
On Thanksgiving and you're in laws.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
And after a couple of hours, you're good, you've met
your quota. You don't really want to spend too much
time with them. They're annoying you, You're annoying them, and
you want something that is a distraction, so you'll flip
on a game of football. The same thing applies to
these other days. And I thought I didn't think Phil
was I thought he was like into Buddhism and stuff.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
I didn't is he. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
I have no idea the zen master Phil Jackson coming
out of now. It just to unload on the NBA.
I let's go back to the phones and we'll say
let's go to Big Daddy. I think I don't know,
this might not be big Hello, Big Daddy in Memphis.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
Is this there?
Speaker 4 (29:14):
He ain't, says Big Daddy. He's the daddy. He's the daddy.
Speaker 9 (29:18):
And my consistent was I just like to apologize for
that history making me that we did to take it
just don't make no sense. I had my shirt on,
but when they got down by fifteen, I just took
it off. It just don't make no sense. It ain't
going nowhere, Johnsing and Lee soon as U Lebron get
out of there, BA gonna lead everywhere you go. They
(29:40):
win the championship, except with the grit. It just don't
make no sense. And Happy Delated Holiday, Coop, Happy Delated Holiday.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
Yeah, and Lorena celebrates the holiday as yeah, so bad,
Oh my bad.
Speaker 5 (29:55):
My bad.
Speaker 9 (29:55):
I ain't know what's flowing like that.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Man, Well listen, big Daddy. There was very briefly in
the first quarter. The Grizzlies had a four point lead,
so at that point you were probably feeling pretty good
about yourself. They're up for two baskets early on, right,
They're like, here we go, here, we got boys, and
then they had to play the rest of you.
Speaker 9 (30:14):
They had. I don't understand what's up with all these tattoos,
just getting all these like why they damn it, they
boded like this. They just don't make no sense.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
You're not a tattoo got big daddy, You're not a
tattoo guy.
Speaker 9 (30:26):
No, no, no, man, tattoo man. All this show they're
like getting a haircut. When people have that stuff on
the magnicue, all that stuff, they don't clean that stuff properly.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
Well, then yeah, I actually had a buddy.
Speaker 3 (30:39):
Clean it properly. It's against the law not to have
it be properly cleaned.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
It's against the law.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
But I know, yeah, that's how they Isn't that how
they make their money at the tattoo shops though? Is
maintenance like that, because you know tattoos don't you know,
regular tattoo for normal people don't cost that much.
Speaker 4 (30:55):
But then you gotta go, you're right, man, they.
Speaker 9 (30:57):
Just make it. They're like you just said, he'll ship
to get called. There's not none his bob.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Well, it's kind of like it's like the remember of
the old days with the printers there. They they gave
the printers away pretty much, but they got you on
the cartridges, the ink cartridges. That's how they got you, man.
They charged you a fortune for the cartridges.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Yeah, so.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
All right, big Daddy, Thank you buddy. There's big Daddy
talking to his fans there there. It goes a great
big daddy, he's the daddy. Yeah, that is impressed. How
about Jaron Jackson who put off a four to three
to two, which sounds like an area code. A four
to three to two stat line for Jared Jackson with
the Grizzlies.
Speaker 4 (31:38):
He was two of thirteen from.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
The floor, and it was pointed out to me that
Jaron Jackson is now eligible for a three hundred and
forty five million dollar extension.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
This summer. He had a four three two stat line,
four four.
Speaker 2 (31:58):
Points three rebounds and two assists.
Speaker 4 (32:02):
That's that's impressive.
Speaker 6 (32:03):
That is I could do it.
Speaker 4 (32:06):
Yeah, that's yeah. And he played I played thirty minutes
almost man.

a Batman supervillain. Desmond Bane, Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane set
the NBA record for the lowest plus minus in a

Grizzlies were outscored by fifty one points versus the Thunder.

Welcome, it's our nber one.
Speaker 3 (00:05):
Our one.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
We're back at it the original Recipe podcast, A Happy
Monday to you. It is the twenty first day of
April and you smell that. You know what that is?
That it's not that now. This is the NFL Draft
week beginning. But we start out with pro bouncy ball.
Who gets the blame Bowl from the playoffs? Blame Bowl
of tex mex for the Rockets losing at home? Also,
(00:30):
how is Steph Curry feeling about his Golden State Warriors
performance and the playoffs a road win. Grizzly star John
Morant attempted to reassure the fan base that everything was
going to be okay, saying we will never play that
bad again after a fifty one point beat down by Okac.
Is that strong enough? And do you believe the Celtics
(00:52):
Jason Tatum when he says his.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Wrist is all right? We'll talk about all of that
and more.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Buckle up, it's our number one in all weekends basketball poloser,
it was like one or two DC games. Welcome in
the beginning of another week of the Ben Malor Show.
(01:20):
We are in the air everywhares we rub elbows, and
boy do we rub them from the theater of the mine,
coast to coast, border, the border and beyond on the
vast in tantalizingly powerful microphones of FSR emmating live from
(01:41):
inside the greasy spoon, frying up, piping Hot Sports takes
under the cover of darkness from the Fox Sports radio
studios as we hang out side by side, and we
begin the festivius of talk here with the last game
that was played in it was eastern night. Now still
(02:04):
on the west, it's still Eastern night, but the end
of day two of the NBA card And I don't
know if you were watching all this, maybe a she's
do something else, But I checked it out. I consumed
the product. It kind of goes with the job. So
we watched it so you would not have to to
comment to comment on the events that took place over
(02:27):
the weekend.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
So pro bouncy ball.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
If you hate pro bouncy ball, you're not gonna like
the next couple of months because it's cann be a
lot of pro bouncy ball. But we do have the
NFL's draft which is coming up later this week, which
is which is a good NFL draft so.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
We have that to break it up.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
But we're gonna start in the lone Star State where
the number two seated rock Cats. We're playing host to
the Stephen Curry numbers seven. Numbers seven. We don't have
a seven.
Speaker 4 (02:56):
I don't have a button. We don't have it. We
need it set.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
We need the ones, the two, the trees, the fours,
the five, the sixth, the seventh, the eights, and the nines.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
We need. If we have all of those, we're good.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
So we can have random listers just call up and
just start singing different numbers, and then we have every number.
And then we're gonna need the a's, the b's, the c's,
the d's, the e's, them will go through the whole
alphabet and we'll have a letter and we'll have a
number for everything.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
But anyway, I don't saw the game or not. It
was the last game they played.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
It ended not too long before we cracked the microphones
here on on FSR. So the Warriors trailed for very little,
like none they dominated, I.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
Mean early, very early in the game.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
But the wars led by as many as twenty three
points and then there was as it typically happens, Houston
snaked their way back into the game a little bit
down by nine entering the fourth quarter. I never got
the feeling that the Rockets were going to actually win
the game. Uh, and that turned out to be the case.
My premonition was accurate. Jephan Curry twelve of nineteen from
(04:02):
the four, did not hit a three point shot for
a while, but then ended up five of nine from
three point land and Jimmy Butler getting her done there
with twenty five points, seven rebound, six assists, five steals,
and a partridge in a paar tree. As a Game
two will be played next month. No Game two will
(04:22):
be Wednesday, because you know, it's very difficult to play
games more than two days apart, my god, So they'll
the next game will be on Wednesday there and in Houston,
so they will continue. You know the way it works here,
the better story is in the losing locker room. And
so let us discuss the events that took place there
(04:42):
in Houston.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Who gets the.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Blame Bowl of tex mex for the Roquettes as they
lose home court advantage in their first game out in
this particular series. So I have brand ambassadors Sandwich Board
and Hall Pass and we will combine all of these
(05:04):
things together and we are going to make a wonderful,
delicious plate filled with banana cream pie.
Speaker 4 (05:15):
It's a little dish there with banana cream pie. All right.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
So a the Sins watching the Rockets, and the Rockets
are a physically talented team, they're a younger team. They
won a bunch of games actually tried during the regular season,
and so you racked up a lot of wins and
all that stuff. And it's great. But the way you
look at these things, it's Occam's razor. The most obvious
is usually the right answer on these things. And I
(05:39):
mean people overlook the obvious to try to find more
complex explanations for the outcome of events.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
I don't believe it's that deep. It's just sports. It's
not that deep.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
And it's right in front of your schnaz right in
front of your schnaz. Here when you look at it,
you got Jalen Green on one side and Fred van
Vliet on the other side. High crimes and misdemeanors for
these two. Who stinks well, those two right off the top. Now,
it was like an urban legend playing out in the NBA.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Playoffs, right in front of a horizon.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
And now normally it's just the vanishing hitchhiker that just
gets in the car and then you don't know where
they went and what happened, and or you see them
off in the distance, you get closer than not there.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
You don't know.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
But these guys Green and Van Vliet were brand ambassadors
for preparation.
Speaker 4 (06:30):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
They played like they had hemorrhoids, and watching them, you
thought you had hemorrhoids.
Speaker 4 (06:37):
How bad was it? It was so bad.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Jalen Green three of fifteen from the floor, all four
from downtown. Van Vliet, who's got playoff experience from the
stays in Toronto, four of nineteen.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
From the floor.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
So, if you do the math, the Rockets starting backcourt
was outscored by twenty eight points by Golden State, just
backcourt to backcourt Mono Amano. The Warriors starting backcourt shot
fifty three percent from the floor. The Rockheads starting backcourt
(07:13):
attempted a total of thirty four shots and they made
seven of them, which sucks anywhere you go. The rest
of the team, the Rockets, if you take the back
court out right in the ifson Bots Candy nuts the
rest of the back court or the rest of the
front court and everyone else outscored the Warriors by eighteen.
How about on the other side, you've got Stephen Curry
(07:36):
and how is he feeling? How's Golden State feeling right
about now? After this performance in game one? So this
is the blueprint. It's kind of clear that this is
the blueprint, right and nothing radical.
Speaker 4 (07:48):
This is why they went on.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Got Jimmy Butler, playoff Jimmy as the legend goes Jimmy Butler.
It was a prototypical type performance. And fortunately the NBA
giving the Warriors lots of time off in between games,
so they don't they don't have to worry about that
little rest and relaxation. Enjoy Houston to go back out
and play on Wednesday. Now to the dust ball A
game that was so bad? How bad was it was
(08:11):
so bad? We need to mention the number one seed
number in the entire NBA Oklahoma City in the Western Conference.
There they put on a clinic and it wasn't just
a click. I don't believe that does justice to what
happened in this particular game. The smashing of the grizz
in Memphis. Memphis has completely torn to bits in Okay
(08:34):
see now a fifty one point margin.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
An NBA team that made.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
The playoffs, granted they were in the plane, lost a
game by fifty one points.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Do you know how.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Bad one has to play to lose a game by
fifty one points?
Speaker 4 (08:52):
And it's just stunning.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
And now John Morant attempted to reassure the fan base
that things are going to be okay, that it will
never get this bad again.
Speaker 4 (09:05):
Let's go to the audio tape. Take a listen, No
play that about it again.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
Defensive intensity, they had a lot of easy looks which
pretty much getting to, you know, wherever they wanted on
the floor, and offensively taking care of the ball.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
Defensive intensity.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
I think my fat ass could have played better defense
than those guys. There was no defensive intendit all right, So,
Ja Moran, they're not real confident. As he attempted to
reassure the fan base that everything will be okay, and
he said that money quote, we will never play that
bad again. Is that strong enough? Well that was a
rhetorical question. Of course, it's not strong enough. No, you're
(09:44):
supposed to be the franchise player here. I am a
franchise were here. I'm talking about a game, a playoff game,
a playoff we we lost by fifty one points. My god,
fire the coach again. Where's Taylor Jenkins? Fire him again?
Not the coach, Fire him again. You've lost a player
game by fifty one points. And I flashed back years
ago when I started out and radio, I covered the
(10:05):
NBA regularly and one of the people he's long gone now,
Bill Fitch. It was a Hall of Fame coach, and
he explained to me that no matter how bad one
team is compared to the other team in terms of talent,
perceive the perception of talent. He explained to me, if
the lesser team plays with the proper effort and energy
and plays the fundamentally sound way of basketball, they will
(10:28):
not get blown out. That if you just put the
effort in that you can close the gap, the talent gap.
Speaker 4 (10:35):
And I watched, I was like, whoa that is?
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I thought maybe my phone had glitched when I looked
at the score, and I was like, I must not
be right. Maybe somebody hacked the website that I used
to look at the score. And then I turned it
on and I was like, oh my god, what a monstrosity.
This is unbelievable. I mean Holy Canoley, This is not
the vomit comment. That the vomit comment is not strong
(11:01):
enough here. This is somebody needs to be court martialed.
There needs to be a court martial here. Naming and shaming.
I'm talking about sensing multiple people, and you can go
down the list. There's like seven or eight prime suspects
here who need to wear the sandwich board and walk
outside the arena, and the sandwich board can point out
(11:23):
how they violated the tenants of basketball competition and all that,
and they're guilty of dereliction of duties.
Speaker 5 (11:33):
Man.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
That is what to do.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Is a game by fifty one points. I mean, oh,
Oklahoma City's great, They're not that much greater than Memphis,
Mike got all right. Now, Last word to Boston we go,
where the Celtics were trailing midway through, but in the
end they dominated when they they pulled away there in
(11:57):
the second half and they end up winning. Jason Tatum, though,
the story not the game with Orlando. The story is
Jason Tatum. Was it a snap crackle pop situation? Tatum?
He came down tumbling down on his wrist, Oh my
aching wrist, and they'll postgame X ray situation for Jason Tatum.
He said of his right wrist, it was clean, the
(12:21):
X ray said, he said it was clean, and he
was all right, all right, he said.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
He came down there in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
As Jason Tatum ended up playing, he had seven, you know,
seventeen points eight of twenty two, didn't do much anything
early in the game, played nearly forty minutes of game time.
Speaker 4 (12:41):
Here.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
The injury happened with eight twenty eight to go in
the fourth quarter and he was driving for a dunk
attempt at the rim and ow aUI aUI Kazawi. I
think that's the actual son aUI Kazawi's what he said.
Possibly not, So question, do you believe Do you believe
(13:02):
Jason Tatum when he says his wrist is all right,
and he also said the x rays were cleaned?
Speaker 4 (13:08):
You believe? Do you believe all that? So my position
on this is whether the X ray was clean or not.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I assume it was, and him saying he's all right,
My position on that is it's not cracked, right, It's
not cracked. However, Tatum now has something very valuable for
the next three or four games, possibly longer than that.
He's got a hall pass, he starts clanking up missus,
(13:34):
he's got well, you know, it's in my wrist, and
I'm trying to fight through it, trying to fight through
the wrist problem. And he's got the immunity papers. If
he starts making a brick house, the old brick house there,
clanking jumpers right and left and just not being very efficient.
So this has the makings of what a gentleman's sweep,
(13:56):
as they like to call it in the playoffs, where
you end.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Up winning the games at home.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
You lose game three, and then you bounce back and
win the next couple and win in five, and that's
that the Celtics flipping the switch in the second half
of that game, and so they end up winning by
a comfortable margin at home against Orlando. Will take your
calls on any of this. If you would like to
be part, we will release the hounds. We'll open up
the phone lines right now. You can start the party
(14:23):

the grid, someone that had been living like in a
shack in Montana, popped up out of nowhere randomly to
(14:48):
make it all about them, all about them over the
week at a very well known figure in sports, and
they brought the atomic elbow down from the upper rope.
What was that all about. We'll get to it, we'll
break it down, and we will do it.

Well, you might want to go somewhere else then, you know,
I don't think it gets I don't know. I have
no idea, but I'm assuming that I've been to Seattle.
I assume it's just a little further north north than Seattle,
so I assume the weather is pretty similar to Seattle,
and that time of the year. Probably fine, maybe we'll rain.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
You know what, if it does rain, I could get
an umbrella.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
Oh that'd be exciting. I love it.

them on the street there and said, you want one
twenty bucks colecting umbrellas.

Speaker 4 (17:46):

the big bucket of umbrellas.
Speaker 4 (18:02):

here without raining and there's always those umbrellas. They always
have the umbrella.

job promoting this. I feel like we're screwing this up.
I feel like no one's going to show up.
Speaker 3 (18:49):
We're not promoting it.
Speaker 2 (18:50):
It's a Thursday, the first Thursday one we've done. We

Speaker 7 (21:55):
I was also hearing what you were saying earlier when

I don't have a passport. I can't get up there.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
No, you're you're in trouble. Then you're not allowed, not
allowed to be there, You're banned. Can't make it unbelievable.
Speaker 7 (22:23):

Speaker 4 (22:55):
Too, Okay, good, let me know how that goes. Thank

sure Sean.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Now I think we have blind Emmett and so blind
at what's going on.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
Blind Emmett, welcome, big bend there he is blind em it.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Yeah, the right, right guy, right guy, Good job, Coop.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Yeah, Now the phone, it's everything's messed up. I don't know,
it's gonna be pot luck. We don't know what we're
gonna get. I'm a punch lines up. Who knows who's there,
who's not there. I have no idea anyway, what's going on.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Sunday broke the phones.
Speaker 7 (23:23):
That's all I know.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
But you don't talk about the NBA Playoffs, especially this
Warriors Rockets game. Now, this was a brutal performance for Houston.
I mean it was just terrible, like you were saying.
And the fun fact about that is the Warriors are
actually twenty nine and one on the road, So like
Houston fans, they were probably thinking, oh, this is a
home court advantage. You know, we're gonna go in here,
it's going to be easy, and I think they kind
(23:44):
of underestimated it and how good the Warriors are on
the road, because like, the only guy that was actually
like half trying and he actually did pretty decent for
the Rockets was a Shanng Goon. That was the only
guy that was doing some sort of out of like
the big star players. The only guy doing something some
sort of work like we had, like you said, Fred
vev Lee, absolutely horrible. It was in the abomination of
(24:07):
a game. Just like you're the guy with the playoff experience,
like you said, Man, you're supposed to be the leader.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
And where did you get the twenty nine and one
stat Did you pull that out of your ass or
something like that?
Speaker 1 (24:17):
What do you a friend of the show, Kevin Harlan.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
Really because they didn't go twenty nine and they didn't
win twenty nine out of thirty on the roads.
Speaker 4 (24:25):
I don't know where you got that.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Yeah, I mean Kevin Harlan's producer, because you know, he
probably didn't have that, Stuy. It was probably some some
dude who's working in the hall today that doesn't really
know basketball.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:36):
I mean, they were they were fine on the road.
They did the same record on the road as they
did at home. Golden State. It wasn't you know, maybe
they played well with Jimmy Butler on the road, but
I think it was in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
It was in the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
I would guarantee they haven't gone twenty nine and one
in the playoffs on the road even factly, Yeah, well,
we don't need to fag them.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
It's just there's no way I don't need I need
a double check. And they haven't gone.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
They won twenty nine out of thirty road games in
the playoffs the Golden State War Otherwise that they have
seven championships in the last nine years or something.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
They don't they have like six or five.
Speaker 4 (25:12):
So there, it's been been a few years since that.
Those days are in the past.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
I mean like when they got that last championship.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
I mean it's twenty twenty five right now. So it's
got a thing.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Ben, It's like all these games, you know, like sometimes
they're playing too.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
You're trying to defend your stack, your status bogus. You're
trying to defend a bogus stats bat job by you.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
What did you say this?
Speaker 2 (25:31):
He said the Warriors, I went twenty nine out of
thirty on the road, which isn't true like all time,
like the last playoff series, Like there's a bigger than
bogus stat. By the way, this bogus stat may is
possible by hold on giving it doing a raid made
possible by Express employment professionals. They can provide contract workers
(25:52):
to flex up for peak seasons without having to raise
your core workforce head count, manage your workforce differently. Is
it expresspros dot com today? That's expresspros dot com. Did
you think I wasn't gonna catch your bogus stat Is
that what you're doing? You thought, Hey, I can slip
this one past mall. Or he's not even listening. He's
not even gonna listen.
Speaker 1 (26:11):
Maybe he is, you know, maybe he's chilling in Houston
right now. We just had some tax Max. I mean,
you never.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Know, well, Carl's probably his hotel room right now. Why
watching YouTube or something.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
I don't always did you hear what he said?
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I don't know if anyone like had the volume up
when they're watching the game. But he was like, yeah,
if you want to order your Dependence from Walmart because
they were doing some Walmart sponsorship and ready he's like, whoa,
what are you saying there? And then he's like, no,
I'm for the people. I'm Kevin Harland for the people.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
That's right. You gotta do it for the people.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Man.
Speaker 4 (26:41):
That's good.
Speaker 2 (26:41):
That's how he does those reads. You gotta do those
reads like that. That's good advertising. You gotta sell the soap.
You gotta sell the soap Blindmxactly, it's all about selling
the soap or the diapers, the adult diapers, and you
gotta sell the adult diapers.
Speaker 4 (26:54):
All right, thank you, go away.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
All right, there's the great They look at that blind Emmitt,
the Seahawks fan, and what a flying start we are
off due unbelievable. So, coming out of nowhere randomly over
the weekend was someone that I dealt with a lot
back in the day, hadn't really heard much of him.
I don't know what he's doing these days, just kind
(27:16):
of hanging out, living life. And that would be Phil Jackson.
Did you see the old Bulls coach and Lakers coach
Phil Jackson who randomly showed up on social media and
took a shot at the NBA. He said again the NBA, Hey,
he is a quote from Jackson on social media, say again,
(27:38):
the NBA test faith by playing multiple games on Christmas
and Easter. He points out right upset by that. He said,
these are sacred days, should not be playing. The implication
obviously they should not be playing on Christmas and Easter.
(27:58):
As Phil, it's good to know he has worked in
the NBA in a number of years, but he's still
got that.
Speaker 4 (28:02):
Grudge the league.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
And the reason Phil, I think Phil knows this, they
play those games is because people watch those games. They say, well,
people shouldn't watch those games. Are you supposed to shut
everything down on on certain holidays? And I have no
alternative programming. Typically, It's like I always looking at this,
like Thanksgiving. There's always been NFL games on Thanksgiving, And
(28:29):
typically you spend time with your family.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
On Thanksgiving and you're in laws.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
And after a couple of hours, you're good, you've met
your quota. You don't really want to spend too much
time with them. They're annoying you, You're annoying them, and
you want something that is a distraction, so you'll flip
on a game of football. The same thing applies to
these other days. And I thought I didn't think Phil
was I thought he was like into Buddhism and stuff.
Speaker 4 (28:56):
I didn't is he. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
I have no idea the zen master Phil Jackson coming
out of now. It just to unload on the NBA.
I let's go back to the phones and we'll say
let's go to Big Daddy. I think I don't know,
this might not be big Hello, Big Daddy in Memphis.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
Is this there?
Speaker 4 (29:14):
He ain't, says Big Daddy. He's the daddy. He's the daddy.
Speaker 9 (29:18):
And my consistent was I just like to apologize for
that history making me that we did to take it
just don't make no sense. I had my shirt on,
but when they got down by fifteen, I just took
it off. It just don't make no sense. It ain't
going nowhere, Johnsing and Lee soon as U Lebron get
out of there, BA gonna lead everywhere you go. They
(29:40):
win the championship, except with the grit. It just don't
make no sense. And Happy Delated Holiday, Coop, Happy Delated Holiday.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
Yeah, and Lorena celebrates the holiday as yeah, so bad,
Oh my bad.
Speaker 5 (29:55):
My bad.
Speaker 9 (29:55):
I ain't know what's flowing like that.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Man, Well listen, big Daddy. There was very briefly in
the first quarter. The Grizzlies had a four point lead,
so at that point you were probably feeling pretty good
about yourself. They're up for two baskets early on, right,
They're like, here we go, here, we got boys, and
then they had to play the rest of you.
Speaker 9 (30:14):
They had. I don't understand what's up with all these tattoos,
just getting all these like why they damn it, they
boded like this. They just don't make no sense.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
You're not a tattoo got big daddy, You're not a
tattoo guy.
Speaker 9 (30:26):
No, no, no, man, tattoo man. All this show they're
like getting a haircut. When people have that stuff on
