Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom SHOCKA lock up, Mama, there goes that man. That
would be none other than James Dolan, the beleaguered owner
of the New York pro bouncy ball team. So what
do you make of the media now claiming that the
sphere in Vegas is partially responsible for the next breaking
the curse and winning a championship for the first time
(00:22):
in over fifty years. Also is Daron Fox unfollowing the
spurs on social media something or nothing?
Speaker 2 (00:32):
We'll talk about that.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
And in the NFL, how do you decode Stefon Diggs,
the wide receiver, saying that he's working through some things
while practically begging the commanders for a job. That's his
hometown teams from Maryland. We'll talk you about all of
those things and more. Right now here, it is our
(00:53):
number two, saved by hey the ball thing.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
Why welcome in.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
The beginning of another hour of the Ben Mahlor Show.
We are in the air ev reware. That's right, denizens,
as we ruffle some feathers, those feathers easily ruffled coast
to coast, border to border and beyond on the vast

Speaker 2 (01:35):
From the other side. We're on the other side of
the tracks. We are guteed human.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
From the world famous Fox Sports radio studios, where Mike
in Tucson reminds us that this hour made possible in

she's all fired up for the World Cup. She says, Hey, Ben,

Speaker 1 (02:45):
And then I got a message and it's very odd
this person would send message while I'm doing the show,
but can't close the deal. Neil and his son, they said, hey, Ben,
gas is expensive.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Help us out.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
I said, sure, we need to talk and stop overpaying
for gas. And I told I can't close the deal.
Neil this and I'll tell you stop overpaying for gas.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Gas Buddy apfterday, choose your road to savings. And then
mad Jack and the number one burner account they reached
out and they said, hey, what about Express?
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I said, what about Express?
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Please, if you're skilled in manufacturing, skip the online jobs
or tonightmare. Express employment professionals connect skilled machinist, welders and
technicians with contract in full time men. You're facturing jobs
and please enjoy that. And then I think it was
Tree from Chicago. Could have been Tilio and Florida. He's
(03:52):
the gobbe ghoul guy. See Tilio's the reason we say
gobba ghul is mainly well. Coop used to say it,
and then Tilio wanted us to say it, So now
we say Gobba ghoul as a tribute to Tilio. But
then Tree in Chicago, the long suffering Cup fan. They're
in the Windy City. Anyway, upgrade your FIFA World Cup

Speaker 2 (04:32):
And now we begin. We now move ahead in the
broadcast anyway.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
I lead this hour from New York, New York, and
we'll pro bouncy.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
But why are you talking about it?
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Well, the reason is because it's hot take validation. If
you do this kind of job, you love hot take validation.
So little hot take validation. Someone has some explaining to
new the nixt SI. I don't know if you heard this.
The Knicks won the championship. Well, really, the Spurs gave
it away. Most series are loss not won. In San
Antonio decided to help out the Knicks, and they certainly
(05:08):
did so. You might know where I'm going with this possibility,
You don't. We had mentioned if the Knicks were to
win the championship, this would debunk the long standing theory
that the Knicks could not win because they have a
stumblebumb as an owner in Dolan, the Nepo baby who
(05:29):
inherited the team from his dad and that whole thing.
So I was reading that supposedly members of the Knicks
front office are partially crediting owner James Dolan getting quote
distracted by the sphere in Vegas and that is what
led to the Knicks championship. Let me repeat that for
(05:52):
those of you a little slow in the back.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
Of the room.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
So this theory is that there's a faction. It's the
media fringe that is claiming that there are members of
the front office who believe that because of that round
thing in Vegas, which is owned by Jim Dolan, that
that is why he was distracted with that trying to
(06:17):
line up those old music acts to perform there and
the Wizard of Oz and all that stuff, and so
he was not laser locked in on the Knickerbockers in
recent years.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
So that is a good jumping off point.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Let us discuss the question, what do you make of
the media claiming that because of the sphere in Vegas
that is responsible that round thingamajig is responsible for the
Knicks breaking the curse of James Dolan. So my observations
on this, I have the wash, hysteria, saber, and.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Mysterious, and we will combine all of these things together.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
We're not gonna play Connect four, gonna play Connect three,
which is better than Connect four because you only have
to get a lot of people call that tic tac toe.
We call it Connect three because that's how we roll
in these parts.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Now. We always start with number one, number one, number one,
number number Oh what fun it is number one, number one.
So the the Knicks finally win.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
The title, finally win the title, and suddenly the Vegas
snow globe is what ganned off from Lord of the
Rings that they're gonna credit the snow globe there in Vegas.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
It's last I checked.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
It's a building with Wi Fi and security and a
lot of Neon light things. That's that's what that is
now regardless, look at the media cook, look at the
media cook here. They claimed for years the Knicks couldn't
win because.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Of James Dolden.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Now they're claiming that the fear in Vegas is responsible
for breaking the curse of James Dolan, who goofed.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
I've got to know.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
So the spear did it, Not the players, not the coaching,
not the generosity of wemby missing game winning shots and
choking in every game. That it's the round thing in
Vegas that the sphere apparently helped break the curse by
doing what absolutely nothing. That is what's known as capitol
(08:28):
p poppycock is what that is. And the Knicks one
because they played better and the Spurs helped them out
at every possibility late in games being the dumbest team
in America. And I think of this debate, I would
even say it's a debate, this take that the sphere
(08:51):
in Vegas helped the Knicks because Dolan was focused on that,
he wasn't focused on the basketball. I put this into
the same category as momentum. Now, as you know, there
is no such thing in sports as momentum, just another
explanation for the outcome of a game, which is manufactured
entirely after the fact.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
After the fact. I will guarant effinte.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
You if the Spurs had come back and won that series,
it wouldn't have been well. The Knicks benefited because Dolan
was worried about that thing of a jig.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
That what you might call it in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
No no, no, no, no, that story wouldn't have seen the
light of day now because they won and it made
a lot of people look like dumb dums. They had
to come up with something. This is what happens when
the media narrative dies. The media grabs the nearest shiny
object and calls it destiny. And here we are, so
the Knicks one utterly debunking the terrible owner can't win
(09:49):
storyline which had been out there for so long. And
so now the media is heading to the washhysteria and
the laundromat there, and they're going into the spinside and
they're working overtime James Dolan distracted by the new Vegas
toy that opened up a few years ago. Here, that's
the silver bullet. That's it right there. We were right,
(10:11):
except because of the silver bullet.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
There it is.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
It's that textbook narrative laundering at the laundromat there, and
the Knicks they win, of course, and so the media,
who had been telling us that Dolan could not be
the owner and when they won, he has to sell
the team and all that, they got to find a
new villain. So now they're going to the snow Globe.
They're choosing the snow globe as the villain, all right now?
(10:37):
Page two to San Antonio, and the better story is
in the Losing locker Room, a little post mortem on
the Spurs, who were terrible writing the vomit comet throughout
the NBA Finals there. So I read reports that there
were conflicting reports here. So there's one set of reports
saying that the basketball team known as the Spurs are
(11:01):
fully committed to Daron Fox, the guy that choked in
every game, as their franchise point guard going forward. Well,
then we heard that Daron Fox had done the thing
you can't do at the time you can't do it.
He had unfollowed the San Antonio Spurs official instagram page
shortly after that, humiliating a masculating loss to the Knickerbockers
(11:27):
in the twenty twenty six NBA Finals. So the social
media move has quickly sparked trade speculation and people chatting, well,
where's he gonna go? The future is not good for
dearon Fox in San Antonio, and that he has now
cranked things up unfollowing the Instagram page of the Spurs.
(11:48):
So mixed messages from the Alamo. The question is d
Aaron Fox unfollowing the Spurs on social media? Is this
something or is it nothing? So, after eight minutes long
deliberation of the available information, the error on this one
(12:09):
is pointing squarely at something. It is absolutely something. And
Fox just unfollowing randomly the Spurs, which coincides with him
putting puke all over the court, and I just absolute
die die diaryea for Daron Fox. And then all of
(12:31):
a sudden he it's the unfollowed button and that's it, okay,
come on, of course, the uh, the joke is he
unfollowed the Spurs the exact same way he unfollowed big
moments in the NBA Finals.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
He just unfollowed them and was nowhere to be seen.
Speaker 1 (12:49):
So in today's NBA, I can give you all kinds
of psychobabble. In today's NBA, the unfollow button is the
quickest way to let the world know, in a passive
aggressive manner that you would like a job transfer. And
the Aaron Fox did it, he did it, He did it,
(13:09):
He did it, he did it. And it's the emoji
version of I'm out see you later, suckers, I'm out
of here. It's saber rattling is what it is, ratcheting
up tensions further. Now, the reason this is not just saying, well,
he maybe hit the wrong button. His wife also unfollowed
(13:30):
the spurs. It's a family package. The wife was involved
in this as well. That is a dad day dead
do way. When your spouse joins the digital walkout, that
is not a quinkidink. It is no longer a quinkidink.
That is a coordinate attack. This was a planned out
(13:52):
attack the Aaron Fox and his wife. O mg uh.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
This passive aggressive sabe passive aggressive because somebody has to
track this imagining the losers that track who you're following.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
I know a lot of this is done by AI now,
but there are people that obsessed with this stuff. Well,
you don't follow that person anymore, and thank god they
do that they're doing God's work. I don't really care
that much to pay attention to who Daron Fox is following.
I mean, my god, I don't have much of a life.
That would even less of a life than I have now.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Oh my wait a minute, is that?
Speaker 1 (14:29):
Oh my god, Jalen Brunson, he started following who anyway?
So the unfollow is almost always the first breadcrumb that
drops before you all of a sudden get the league
insiders saying Daron Fox would really like to go play
for team X or Y or Z or fill in
(14:53):
the blank.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
There.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
It's the NBA's favorite appetizer, pure digital tension. And and
to crank things up even more, Dearon Fox signed a
massive four year two hundred thirty nine or two twenty
nine million muine getting two hundred and twenty million or
whatever it is and then being unhappy. Wow, that even
has n't kicked in yet. That extension we are told,
(15:15):
has not even kicked in yet for Dearon Fox.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
And he has been usurped on the depth chart, passed over,
upstaged by Dylan Harper, Ron's kid, Dylan Harper. Although Harper had.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
His moments of stank in the NBA Finals as well,
the Spurs didn't just get unfollowed by Dearon Fox. They
got digitally divorced, is what happened all right? Now, final
point to the NFL and some free agency news as
we are scraping the bottom of the barrel, as this
(15:50):
is the period of the calendar where NFL players get
arrested for domestic violence, DUI and other things. It's very
popular time of the year to get arrested. That's why
we do the NFL book them. We want no one
to get arrested. Many players choose to ignore us and
decide they want to get arrested, so anyway we miss up.
Stefan Diggs did not get arrested recently, although he did
(16:11):
have some trouble with the Patriots got out of that.
So Stefan Diggs, who is now a street free agent
in the NFL unsigned generally not a great sign when
we were a few weeks away from training camp, and
he said recently that he is open to joining the
Washington Commanders. Say what, Yes, the Washington Commanders. Diggs expressed
(16:34):
excitement about the possibility of playing back home near a
radio caller Rick in Maryland who says morning time and
in the DC area there where he grew up in Maryland,
played college football at the University of Maryland, and now
he's bounced around the NFL for a number of years.
And when asked about that, he said, quote, we're kind
(16:57):
of figuring it out, working through some things.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Close quote from Stefon.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
Digg's question, how do you decode please decode. Stefon Diggs
saying he's working through some things while practically begging the
commanders for a job. So I've decided to do dust
off the Mallard jock speak decoder ring, not to be
(17:25):
confused with the Mallard Rosetta stone.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
No, no, no no, this.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Is the Mallard jock speak decoder ring is what we're
going with here. And this is code. What is it
code for? It's code for the market is cold. Washington
is my absolute best and only shot. Best, of course,
means it's all as good as all the rest. And
I'm trying This is Stefan Diggs saying, I'm trying to
(17:52):
sound mysterious. I would like to give the illusion that
there is a lot of interest, rather than that no
one is interested in me, and that's why I'm unemployed.
So Diggs, of course, is not working through things when
he says that he's working through the harsh reality that
no one is texting and no one is calling. Like
(18:14):
if general managers were burning up the phone, burn, baby burn,
he wouldn't be working through anything except travel arrangements trying
to get the itinerary ready to fly to whatever city
you're gonna go play for however, at age thirty two.
We've talked about this in previous episodes of the show.
At age thirty two, with a declining burst and a
(18:35):
well earned reputation from.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Years and years and years of being very moody. He's
a moody guy, mood swings all of that. Stefan Diggs,
He's simply not a must have guy anymore on your
NFL team. The commander's depth chart at wide receiver is
so bad. How bad is it?
Speaker 1 (18:54):
It's thank you, it's so bad. They're looking at guys
like Stefan Diggs and mister Brandon Ioka the Niners, who's
also another head case. So they're like, hey, we won't
have any good players, so why don't we just get
some guys that are a little looney tunes and they're
good occasionally, and we'll bring them in and so there
you go.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
The problem is that GMC.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
In the case of Stefan Diggs, you look at the
resume and you say, well, that's one problem, and then
you say, there's a lot of maintenance. There's a lot
of maintenance involved in that. He's not a wide receiver
number one anymore. There's not a wide receiver. One he's
a wide receiver. If is what he is here, And
this is.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
The classic desperate open to all opportunities, open to all
opportunities face when you get to this point in your career.
It's like, I just want to play somewhere. I would
like to play somewhere. It's great.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
When he's happy, he'll be somewhat productive Stefan Diggs. And
when he's not radioactive, cher Nobyle, cher Noobyle. And if
Washington doesn't bite, if the commanders don't bite on Stefan Diggs,
one step away, just one little step away from posting
those I'm in the Greatest shape of my life videos
(20:09):
on the gram or that close to that happening.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
He was in the mean my.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Own in soccer. What did they win?
Speaker 2 (24:06):
No, I think they tied. I think they.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Okay, okay, even I imagine him playing with bombs going off.
Speaker 2 (24:14):
Well, I hope hopefully not.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
They're playing playing in l A, so hopefully I don't
need bombs going off in l A.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Weed been you imagine? I did see they were some
of the players who I ran were complaining about the
hospitality in America. I guess they weren't. They were happy
about that. But where you go, what are you gonna?
Speaker 3 (24:38):
I'll tell you, you know, talk about progress and making advance
and making the world better. There was such bad blood
at Madison Square Garden with Dolan.
Speaker 2 (24:49):
Remember he went with, yeah, he's still he's still won't
let him in. He still won't let the men, Really
are you?
Speaker 3 (24:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Well, Okley suing James Dolan, So he's let them in.
Now we've been speaking of that. I was we're gonna
bring this. I teased it in a while ago and
I didn't pay it off. So did you hear the
sacrifice request? James Dolan had a sacrifice request.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
For the players before they went on their playoff run.
Did you see this all right?
Speaker 3 (25:17):
Now?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
You know how like Catholics can't eat fish on Friday? Yes,
for Lent, right, you know that whole thing?
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Yeah, So James Dolan's advice to the Knicks. He asked
the players to not make whoopee during during the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
He urged the yeah, he didn't. He didn't want the
players to fornicate what remember our boxer yes, yeah, well
there was this great debate.
Speaker 1 (25:45):
In fact, I have a kind of an amusing story
involving Ronda Rousei when yeah, yeah, so she was in
this building. I was doing a filling in doing stuff
with this guy Chris Myers, and Ronda Rowsey came in
to the studio and she had done an interview like
a week before where she claimed before a fight she
(26:06):
wanted to have as much sex as she could possibly
have because I guess well, the theory was that this
made you as a woman, it helps you out more
than a man, suppose. I don't know, so that was
always been this debate's been going on for a long time.
So anyway, but imagine me, isn't that an HR violation?
If you're James do I think that is an HR violation.
(26:27):
You tell the players they can't have sex. I mean,
that's like telling a fat man he can't eat.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
What are you doing? These are professional athletes, right, come on.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Now, weed man, that's it's wild, James Dolan, Man's that's
gonna be part of the Yes, what.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
Let's make the world a better place to live. Let's
change the world right here? Or overnight sports Salt Radio.
Speaker 1 (26:51):
All right, Alf the alien opinter Wow. He went back
on the old Benmallar dot com. I haven't seen this
and had my webs from twenty four years ago, and
he said, weed, man, have you ever been stuck in
an elevator like Ben?
Speaker 3 (27:08):
No? No, when we were stuck.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
In I was stuck in an elevator lax In apparently
twenty oh two. In May of twenty oh two.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Was me, my mom, my dad, my younger brother. We
were stuck in an elevator there and the fire department
had to come and rescue us from the elevator. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
Wow, that's so crazy.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Yeah, I mean the good news is it wasn't like
it wasn't on the seventy seventh floor and it was
only like the third floor or whatever, so it wasn't
that high up. So anyway, it was we were stuck.
We were stuck between the third and fourth floor?
Speaker 2 (27:45):
What what?
Speaker 3 (27:46):
Where is Tom Looney? I remember he used to do
a show with Mooney? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (27:50):
I did do it. So I did a TV show,

Speaker 1 (27:57):
Looney got whacked by the company. Uh so he doesn't

I still talk to him. He'll send me a bunch
of texts. We still talk all the time, but he's
just not he's not employed by the company anymore. What
do we have here? Let's see, he's part of the
Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association. What's that? Over chance to work?

and this is the most important question I would like
you now to announce. I'm gonna give you a chance.

Speaker 2 (29:10):
Who won the Stanley Cup Finals? I know, alright, that
would be the Vegan No, it was the Hertford Whalers.
The Hartford Whalers won the Stanley cup right over his head.
(29:31):
Boso the District a Journey says, it's graduation season.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
I'm so funny.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
I know you love Boso and his avatar's Bozo the Client.
He says, it's graduation season. If you were chosen to
be a commencement speaker, what would you tell the graduates?

shocked everyone singing that Tom Jones song. Are you going

So every summer wed Man around the All Star breaking Baseball,
we have the Mallard Paloosa. It's the greatest night in
(30:26):
overnight talk radio during the summer. It's the most listened
to show we have all summer, and it'll be coming

With movement you share it.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
I'll sing you.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
What's going on? Do you have a background singer?
Speaker 1 (30:57):
I feel like you had a background singer. There God Bacon,
all right, here we go. The Baltimore Freeloader account says,
I'm curious if weed Man can even recall the best
which is as good as all the rest free food
spread he ever enjoyed, whether it be in New York
(31:18):
or Florida. He says, we know you have the Stanley Cup,
And yes, the greatest freeloader event I've ever been at
was the Stanley Cup. The Kings won the Stanley Cup
twice about ten years ago, a little more than that,
guess now.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
And it was amazing. The NHL spread was next level.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
So weed Man, in your life, you've been at the
social events back when you were making money at the
toy store. Did you ever have an amazing night with
free food that you still remember?
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Free food? You know, I used to go to Lions Club,
Ars Member Climbers Club. We used to have a lot
of food. There was great all right.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
Manuel in Guardina writes in the how are You? He
can't answer he just wrote in on exes, he says,
hello weed me. He says, you want to know your
favorite strain? A lot of people ask that question, and
the weed loves that man.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
No, No, what's amazing is right now there's a store.
Where's the closest store to me? Shows me? How crazy
is that?
Speaker 2 (32:20):
What a world? Right, weed man?
Speaker 3 (32:22):

Speaker 2 (32:22):
How many times did you get arrested for weed in
your younger days?
Speaker 3 (32:25):
A million times? And I can't believe that. I don't
even know where it happened.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
Twenty years ago. But that's fine. Oh, let's see.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
Also man well and Guardina says, ask Billy boy if
he's ever been to the Florida Panhandle to panhandle?
Speaker 2 (32:45):
No, I'm not all right? And this is.

Insta Tribute Question of the night with Mallardly third Degree
on deck. Jalen Brunson scored forty two point seven percent
of the Knickerbocker points in the fourth quarter the NBA
Finals to win the ring. That is the highest chair
for any player in the Finals since me, Who am I?
Speaker 1 (37:10):
That is the question? What's the answer? And let's see
what do we have here? Lebron James in honor of
Taco Tuesday. Lebron James as from Malard prop Guy, Robbie
the Mariner fan from Rob the Codeman, Gus Williams guest
by William Keikey Van der Well from Alf the Alien,
O Potter, Le's see kind of looks like weed man,
(37:30):
all of us. I don't know what happened Rob in
Vegas from Shane and Moya. Whatever happened to Robin Vegas?
He kind of disappeared and he moved on from the show.
Willie McGee guests by Robbie the Mariner fan the Great
Willie McGee, Mister mcpheely from JT. The Wingman Darnell Valentine,
good name by Pauli d Sean Livingston guess by Rob
(37:51):
in Minnesota. The worst injury I ever witnessed in person
was Sean Livingston with the clippers when his needed a
three sixty.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
What else do we have?
Speaker 1 (37:58):
Page downt Elton guessed by Elmo after dark Carrot Top
from Andy in Line Lakes, Minnesota. Luke Longley from Doc Dan.
Dwayne Shintzy is from Fargo, Pete. What else do we have?
Page don Gus Williams from Johnny Q, Stephen Curry from
jose U, A blob from mediocre Kobuki.
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Do you have an answer, Lorraine? I'm gonna go with
Larry Bird.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
Larry Bird that is incorrect. Correct answer is the big
German Dirk Novitzky. Dirk Novitzky is a correct answer with
the Mavericks in twenty eleven.
Speaker 2 (38:34):
Here we go. It's maller. How about that to the
third degree? This is one big Ben gets grilled kol.
Speaker 6 (38:45):
It was reported on Monday that the forty nine Ers
and Eagles are red hot for Max Crosby. Have you
had the red hot Candy? I'm not a fan, all right,
and they're trying to trade for him. Yeah, Ben, how
much longer do you think Crosby is a Raider?
Speaker 2 (38:58):
So this is a conundrum for the Raiders because they
traded Max Crosby and then got him back, and now
they've told everyone he's a Raider for the rest of
his career or whatever.
Speaker 1 (39:08):
And he's played along. So I think there's a pretty
good chance. I would say it's less than fifty percent.
It's probably in the thirty five to forty percent range.
Before training camp that he's repackaged.
Speaker 2 (39:20):
But he said the Rain's already traded him once, they
can trade him again next.
Speaker 6 (39:24):
With the Milwaukee Bucks likely to lose Jannis, they are
now being linked to John Morant. Bendy taking Moran is
worth the risk that he comes with.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Well, Milwaukee's desperate for anybody who's good, and they're willing
to take a chance there. Although John Morant got in
trouble in Memphis. If you get in trouble in Memphis,
you can get in trouble in Milwaukee, So you can
get in trouble anywhere if you're a knucklehead. And he's
a he's a hell of a player, though when he's
on the court, he's wonderful John Ran. He's also good
at trip clubs and the ballet and the guns and
the holding.
Speaker 6 (39:52):
Next, when talking about Victor wen Benyama over the weekend,
Draymond Green said, Victor wen Benyama is a European player.
Speaker 2 (39:58):
They are a bit dirty.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
Ben.
Speaker 6 (40:00):
Do you think Wemby is a dirty player?
Speaker 1 (40:03):
I'm more upset with him sucking in clutch time. And
I love the fact that the modern NBA player says
European players are dirty, because I remember when European players
came into the NBA.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
I was a young lad and they all said they
were soft. Yours were soft. Now they're dirty. When did
that happen? Maybe the NBA players of America are soft?
How about that? All right? Anyway, how'd we do, coop?
You pass this? As they went playing it on the
ball A chicken
