Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom, shaka laka. It's our numbber three, our number three
of the original Recipe podcast. We were up all night
providing fresh pod for your ears. I hope you appreciate
that you don't. Okay, that's fine, we did it anyway.
So here in our number three, the Brooklyn Nets. That's
a basketball team, not a good one. The Brooklyn Nets
(00:22):
plan A is to go for Yannis Adentacumbo. How does
that sound to you? Also, Zion Williamson is being described
as a bust. He's been shut down for the rest
of the NBA season. Which way are you voting on
this one? And an anonymous NBA general manager doesn't think
you can win many playoff series with Jama Rant as
(00:46):
your best player. Is that fair or foul? We'll get
to all of that right now. Give it up for
our number three. It's an absolute free show. Well come,
in the beginning of another hour of The Benmather Show.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
We are in the air everywhere hobnobbers as we are
fair and impartial unless we're not coast to coast, border

I no slingshot. Who's a big cam Ward fan? Likes
that tire ract dot com the wait tire buying show me.
So our lead this hour is from pro bouncy Ball.
From pro bouncy Ball. Now, as the regular season winds down,
it is actually wondering, and we'll get back to the
(02:11):
football conversation, which has been driving much of the overnight show.
But the story in basketball it's winding down. The playoffs
will eventually start later this month, the last month of
the regular season. There's about seven eight games left for
most teams along those lines, so the talk of the
day is not about the upcoming playoffs. Playoffs. Now, you'd say, well,
(02:35):
what about the Jokic game. He had a massive sixty
plus point game Denver lost to Minnesota. Stephan Curry had
a huge performance for the Warriors and went over fifty
in their game, But everyone's talking about the swap meet.
The transaction continues to be the story that everyone's yapping about.
And we've learned now if you haven't been following the
(02:57):
latest on this, so we have learned that the the Nets,
that's a basketball team, not a good one. The Nets
are showing interest, significant interest in acquiring Buck star Giannis
Adenta Cumbo. Now this is not exactly a revelation, because
why wouldn't you want to add a two time MVP.
(03:18):
The Greek freak as he is known, has been toiling
his craft there in Wisconsin, and he is a person
of interest for the Brooklyn basketball team. Now I get
an email from a big fan of our show who
lives in the Land of the Cheese, and what do
you think you think Giannis wants to go to Brooklyn?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
You leave?
Speaker 1 (03:40):
He's gonna leave the Bucks. You're gonna leave the Bucks? Right,
He's gonna leave the Buck. You'm freaking out. Of course,
I have all the answers that you know. I do
an overnight sports talk radio show, and I am a
distant relative of Nostra Domas and a friend of Nostra Denis.
I've met him one time. Maybe he'll show up to
the one in Vancouver or the meet and greet we're
gonna do. But anyway, all right, So let's get down
(04:01):
to the nitty gritty here. Yannis is under contract through
the twenty twenty six twenty twenty seven NBA season. He
has a player option. He can either tap in or
tap out on that through twenty twenty eight. So the
Bucks have no sense of urgency. They don't have to
get rid of them. He's going to be around for
at least a couple more years. So let us discuss
(04:22):
the Brooklyn Nets Plan A. Plan A is to go
after Yanisidenta koombo. How does that sound to you? So
I've got brass bonanza, commander in chief, and capital grill,
and we will combine all of these things together and
(04:42):
we are going to have an icing penalty, is what
we're going to have. So, first of all, the reaction,
how's it sound? It sounds the Yanisidenta koumbo to the
Brooklyn Nets story sounds like clickbait. It sounds like aggressive daydreaming.
If it's true. And if you dig a little bit
deeper below the surface, it's strategic. I put this as
(05:09):
a weaponized leak, if you will. The Brooklyn basketball team,
which is morbid, is using the art of manifestation, the
art of manifestation. They're getting the word out using useful
idiots in the media, like, hey, we want everyone to know,
we want you to know, we want you to know,
we want want everyone to know what's going on here.
(05:30):
And they're playing the soundtrack brass Bonanza from this old
retired NHL team in Hartford. They're going whaling the Hartford Whalers.
They're trying to catch the white whale. GIANNISI dent to
Coombo and they're hoping to speak it into existence, right,
they're trying to speak it in new existence now for
(05:50):
what it's worth, for what it's worth here. Giannis has
publicly expressed loyalty to Milwaukee. In fact, in recent weeks,
the Yannis said that he would never request the trade
he said he would have. They would have to kick
me out of the Bucks facility, is what he said
(06:12):
to a Greek media outlet. Nevertheless, the speculation continues because
it's great clickbait, that's the most important thing. But also
a couple of years back, Yannis had said something a
little bit different. A little bit different, I mean even
a few months ago he had said that they could
(06:32):
trade him. He had a very emotional reaction to the
Dallas Mavericks fire sale of Luca Donzik and he's liked
well looking. You can get traded, I can get traded
and all that. But the idea, and this was from
the New York Media, that the Brooklyn Nets have Janice's
plan a. You want to bet that the Golden State Warriors,
because Steph Curry is not getting any younger, that the
(06:54):
Golden State Warriors of our also targeted Yannis or the
you know, the Knickerbockers, any host of teams that would
big market teams, the Chicago Bulls that would like to
get their hands on Giannis. It's obvious, all right. Now,
page two, we go to the Bayou, the shores of
the Mighty Mississippi River and the Pelicans, another dog food team.
(07:16):
But I talk about more bad teams. I love bad teams.
I can't get enough of bad teams. So the Pelicans
are an embarrassment. The nickname stupid, the logo's embarrassing, and
the players don't even try most of the time. I
bring that up because the Pelicans announced this week that
they are shutting her down. Shut her down, shut her down,
(07:36):
shut her down, shut her down. It's all over. Zion
Williamson has played his final game for the Pelicans. He
will not play the handful of games the New Orleans
basketball team has left. So this of course opened up
the floodgates. If you didn't catch any of the shrapnel
that was bouncing around, Zion Williamson is being described as
(07:59):
a bust. He's a bust. So which way are you
voting on this? Is Zion Williamson a bust or not
a bust? All right? So the way I will phrase this,
the New Orleans Pelicans thought they were going to be
making a bust of Zion Williamson for the Pro Bouncy
Ball Hall of Fame. Instead, he's a different kind of
(08:21):
a bust, the kind that you don't want to have.
And by any measurement, Zion Williamson is an absolute failure.
He is a zero for the New Orleans basketball team.
Considering what they thought they were getting, what they thought
they were getting, and what they got, the arrow is
(08:42):
pointing squarely in the direction of the bust. In fact,
Zion is the commander in chief of bust Town USA.
Congratulations his talent coming out of college, wrote these giant
cartoon checks that he has been unable to actually cash
(09:04):
the checks have bounced like a basketball up and down
for a player that was tagged as a franchise cornerstone,
a generational talent that will take the rest of those
stiffs on your roster and carry them into the postseason
and great success. The Pelicans have made the playoffs a
couple of times. They have no playoff series wins with
(09:28):
Zion Williamson. And why is that? Zion is like a
fifty to fifty raffle type of player and he's only
there about half the time. He's a fifty to fifty
raffle player. Zion has actually missed if you do the math,
I've done the Mather math on this. So Zion has
missed two hundred and fifty eight games and he has
(09:51):
played in just two hundred and fourteen games. So if
you do the math on that, Williamson has only played
in forty five little over forty five percent of the
games available. He has missed almost fifty five percent of
his work assignments. So he's going to continuation school. And
I know a thing or two about that. He's going
to continuation school. He's been truant, he's tardy. You're in
(10:17):
trouble with that, You're done. Zion has never played more
than seventy games in a season. He has missed entire
years as in plural. All right, turning the page, final thought,
we go to Memphis, where the barbecue is good and
the basketball is not so good lately not so good.
An anonymous I love the anonymous GM. I live for
(10:38):
the anonymous GM. I am so happy that we have
anonymous gms. So an anonymous GM in the NBA does
not think that you not me, but you can win
many playoff series with Jah Morant, the gun total Grizzlies
guard as your best player. Is that fair or foul?
(11:00):
Is that farophoul?
Speaker 4 (11:01):
So?
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Based on a booth review, an expedited booth review, fair ball,
it's a fair ball. Now they have saying if you
go to the Capitol Grille and you get that diet
type menu thing they have there, they'll say, it's all
sizzle but no steak. And in many ways that's Jahn
(11:25):
Morant in big moments, it's all sizzle and no steak.
Ja Morant has played in twenty three playoff games with
the Grizzlies. Memphis has a three to ninety one winning percentage.
They're nine to fourteen in playoff games with Jahn Morant.
His only playoff series win was a couple of years
(11:45):
back against the Minnesota Pro Bouncy Ball team. If I remember,
that was the year that Pat Beverly celebrated the championship
when the Wolves won the playing tournament and then they
went out there and lost to Memphis. I believe that
was the year. But in the plus, it's this odd
juxtaposition because Ja Moran, his numbers are actually better in
(12:06):
the playoffs than the regular season. He averages more points,
he averages more assists, more rebounds. His numbers are better
in the playoffs in twenty three playoff games in his career. However,
they're in many ways hollow numbers because they do not
translate in wins. And they've been in position Memphis to
(12:28):
win some of those series and they only won one
of them. And John Moransley face of the franchise. So
until he actually wins multiple playoff series, it's absolutely fair.
He's got the pen in his hands. He can rewrite
the story. It is the Ben Malors Show. As we
are working our way through the overnight and tractor supply,
(12:50):
they know that a winning season takes practice, teamwork, and
a can do attitude. Thankfully, when you have a neighbor
like tractor supply, teamwork comes easy when for pets, chickens
or a few acres, our team members will help you
succeed season after season, track to supply for life out here.
Time now for the mallor a riddle of the day,
(13:12):
and you can answer the mallor Riddle of the day
on the X machine on the X machine at Ben Mahllar,
and it all ties and there's a synergy to the
malor riddle of the day. The Memphis Grizzlies have a
forward named Jaron Jackson Junior. He was a defensive Player
(13:33):
of the Year. That's his big claim to fame. So
Jaren Jackson Jr. Of Memphis said, We've had wins, We've
had losses. Ain't no reason to feel sorry. It could
always be worse. You could be blank again the mall
riddle of the day. Jaren Jackson said, We've had wins,
(13:55):
We've had losses. Ain't no reason to feel crazy. It
could always be worse. You could be blank. You could
be blank. That is the mallor riddle of the day.
The answer we'll get to it and we will do
it next.

We say hello to Jimmy, is in Boston? What's going on? Jimmy? Welcome?
(18:22):
You're on the Ben Mallor Show. Hi, Jimmy, Jimmy. Jimmy
going once, Jimmy going twice. No, Jimmy, Let's say hello
to Tom, who's in the Bay Area. What's going on? Tom? Welcome? Hey,
first time, first time collar, longtime Western. Anyway, that's a
(18:45):
long time. A year's a long time, right, you only
get so many years. A year's a long time. Yeah,
it's gonna all the time at night when I'm driving
my wife back and forth to work at the airport.
Speaker 6 (18:54):
Anyway, the question was I wanted to know if you
think the worst can beat the Lakers on Thursday?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Oh, just on Thursday? Are you gonna bet on the game?
Is that why you're you're asking? Well, no, I better much?
Was it? I like a big basketball too, But yeah,
I don't live in a state where you can bet
offline on the California Right.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
You can't.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
You'd be wrong. You should not have an illegal bookie.
That would be be wrong. You should not bet illegally. Uh. Yes,
Do I believe the Warriors can beat the Lakers on
a random regular season game on Thursday night? Yes? Absolutely,
assuming everyone's going to play, which is always the big
assumption in the NBA when guys take a lot of
time off. But considering that the Warriors, Lakers and all
(19:34):
these other teams are jockeying for positioning, you would assume
that everyone's going to play, and that, yes, Golden State
with Jimmy Butler, a motivated Jimmy Butler, will cause problems
because Golden State occasionally actually plays some defense. The Lakers
not so much. Not so much. You were so blown
(19:57):
away by that take time, You're speechless. You don't you
don't even know how to add on to that take.
You have no idea why. It's hard to say that.
Speaker 6 (20:05):
I actually have some other questions for you have other ones.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Take all your time. You don't have that. You can
ask another one if you want. I love I was
a kid. Did they go back a long way? Did
the forty nine? Did they did the Niners trade you also,
or you're still on the team, you're still supporting the team.
Speaker 6 (20:22):
Well, I actually met some of the forty nine over
the years.
Speaker 7 (20:26):
Yeah, but anyway, I might.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Fine to ask you about forty nine er is also
now the forty nine ers traded away all their good players.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
So so what's going to happen now? Are they going
to have to recruit a whole bunch of new players?
Speaker 1 (20:40):
And they bought party all the beatings? Well that my
Mike count The Niners have lost seventeen players from last season,
either traded, released, or left on their own and free agency,
so they will feel the full roster. And let's put
it this way, Tom, you better have a lot of
really good draft picks this year. You better than not
(21:00):
f up the draft because that's where most of the
new players are gonna come from, is the draft, which
is later this month. Thank you, Tom for finding the show,
and thank your wife for working at the airport and
having you driver to and from. All right, all right,
thanks Tom, there's that Tom in San Francisco. Let's go

Game of the night Other than the Giants continuing their
winning way, probably the Warriors versus Memphis.
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Right, well for you because you love the Wars. But
the Nuggets and the Timberwls want to double over time.

Nuggets in the Timber rules into double overtime. But they
didn't have Ja Moran drunk and Daddy Sidelines losing his mind.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Well, they didn't have that, but they did have Nicole.
The Jokis scores sixty one points, so.
Speaker 7 (25:23):
Is that more than Steph had tonight? Let a step
out fifty something?
Speaker 1 (25:26):
Uh, yeah, he had fifty two, So I'm using malar mac.
But sixty one and the Nuggets lost. Actually, even though yok.
Speaker 7 (25:34):
Had had ten rebounds, I think Steth might have had
a better game than I think.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
Yo Kitchen.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Yokich had sixty one points twenty what do you have
ten Tennessee? He had tennisis ten rebounds.
Speaker 7 (25:47):

me go to the bullpen. I'm gonna go to the bullpen. God,
(28:22):
he's just so irritated. I swear to God, Well he
won't remember.
Speaker 5 (28:25):
And then you know, he's gonna callback and my phone, my.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Phone, Let's see if man Well and Guardina wants to play. Hello,
man Well and Guardina, what up?
Speaker 4 (28:36):
Man?
Speaker 6 (28:36):
You know?
Speaker 4 (28:37):
Hey man, I'm here for the show, kind of like
old Tom Foolery in the Bay.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Yeah, I'm going. I'm going right to the bullpen. You're
my go to guy. Yeah, be prepared because if the
Lakers play the Warriors Alamed de lou versus man Well
in Guardina, it might be on.
Speaker 6 (28:53):
So oh we will be on.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
And just like the Warriors, you gotta get their ass key.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
All right, a lot of ambient noise. Here we go.
Let's get to the game. It is too much or
not enough. All you have to do is get three
right to win. All the answers are either too much
or not enough. And you listening can play along while
you drive or sit on your ass. I don't know
whatever you're doing. Yeah, you can play the game. Here,
here we go. Question number By the way, who pick
(29:22):
up line one? I bet you that's James colmbay. He'll
be so disappointed, all right, Question number one. The Yankees
have had seven different players hit a homer in the
first four games of the season. Is that too much
or not enough?
Speaker 4 (29:38):
I would say that not enough?
Speaker 1 (29:42):
All right? Man Well, and Guardina says, not enough. Is
that correct? That is correct? Get job by you men,
Will Hey and I got no problem with those torpedo
at exactly right. Anybody can use them. It's fine. They
have had nine different players hit a home run, most
ball history through a team's first four games. Question number two,
(30:05):
Stephen Curry has now had eighteen career fifty point games
for the Warriors. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (30:14):
Play the hot hand, Benny, Not enough.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
He says, not enough? Is he right? No, it's actually
too much. Curry has had fifteen career fifty point games.
That is still good for the sixth most in NBA history.
So you're one in one, and we'll move on to
question three for our friend Manuel, a legendary sports talk
radio call. He's also in the jungle. He does a
(30:37):
little bit of everything, all right. Question number three, Rudy
Gobert has the most career wins versus Nikola Jokic with sixteen.
Is that too much or not enough for the Wolves? Center?
Speaker 6 (30:51):
Not enough?
Speaker 1 (30:52):
He says, not enough. Again, let's find out that is right?
Look at that. You got your second right answer. Gobert
has nine teen wins against most of those coming with
the Utah Jazz. He's on Minnesota of course recently. That's right.
Make sure you drink your milk. All right, here we
go question number four. Earlier this week, Carson Kelly recorded
(31:16):
the twelveth cycle by a cub in franchise history. Is
that too much or not enough?
Speaker 6 (31:24):
This is way too much?
Speaker 1 (31:27):
He says, way too much. Let's find out for the win.
That's letter. Congratulations man, Well you win too much? Is
the answer? Or the answer? Ten cycle? Ten cycle and
cup's history, So congratulations to you.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Man.
Speaker 1 (31:49):

You did, okay? All right, Well we have questions for you,
la oh, I love questions. I have actual questions. This
is the Queen of Hearts with Loraina King Rory writes
in from Wisconsin. He says, Lorendo, what TV show should
my wife and I binge on to help rekindle our
love for each other? Well?
Speaker 8 (35:47):
You know what shows that you can laugh together on
and that can bring up good conversations are great.
Speaker 5 (35:52):
I've been doing the White Lotus and.
Speaker 1 (35:54):
I think, what is the White Lotus? Explain it in
one sentence? What is the White Lotus.
Speaker 5 (36:00):
In one sentence or one word?
Speaker 1 (36:03):
One sin full of.
Speaker 8 (36:07):
Vapid rich people at an exotic resort and chaos ensues.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Thank you, Thank you, Loraina? That was good. Yes, I
changed your voice at that perfect change your voice a
little bit.
Speaker 8 (36:19):
And you know those type of shows too, they make
you go, maybe our life isn't that bad. Those shows
are good too. Maybe cooking shows are fun too. You
could rekindle your love in the kitchen naked with just
an apron on.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Oh yeah, fun. Well, you get to a certain age,
I don't know, you want to be naked? Deacon writes
in and says, with all this talk of pie tonight,
what if your partner asked you to have a goofy
pie fight with him, would.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
You do it?
Speaker 7 (36:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (36:48):
Yeah, I would.
Speaker 1 (36:48):
You're full. I'm talking like banana cream pie and meringue pie.
Speaker 5 (36:52):
You have a pie fight. It's got to be with
cream pie.
Speaker 6 (36:55):
You don't.
Speaker 5 (36:56):
You don't show up again clothing optional.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
You don't show up to a pie fight with a
an apple pie, right, you don't do that?
Speaker 3 (37:03):
You know?
Speaker 5 (37:05):
No, you don't, especially not a hot apple.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
No, no, you don't. Definitely that would be wrong and
that would that would be inappropriate. Ferg Dog writes into
the Queen of Arts, says, Hayle Reina love your show,
Thank you do. Women prefer the medically enhanced torpedo bat
or the old fashioned actual bat.
Speaker 8 (37:26):
You know, I'm shocked they haven't come up with a
bat pump yet, you know, to give it a little
extra something.
Speaker 5 (37:33):
Yeah, you know, they do actually have lots of mechanical
things for men in that department.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Did not like you, so you're more of a fan
of a torpedo. You can get an implant that doesn't work.
It does, It doesn't work. It does, No, it doesn't.
Speaker 8 (37:45):
But I just don't understand. I'm like, what about when
you're done, do you have to go on? Like like
how you roll down a window.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
You know, it's like take an air out of a tire.
You just take the air out of the tire. That's it. Yeah,
all right, Shane in the morning, right, since says I'm
a terrible I'm terrible and cooking. Kelly is a trained
chef and an amazing chef. Is it's still sweet to
try to make her food or just in salty? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (38:10):
He wants to know, Well, she's pregnant, so I wouldn't
try to feed her anything that's gonna make her nauseous.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
Well, no, don't. Isn't the clichet of pregnant women though,
that they'll elite pretty much really disgusting stuff like no, no, no, no, no,
come on, we've all heard that.
Speaker 8 (38:30):
I'm not saying that odd cravings don't exist. I'm saying
that she probably doesn't want to eat your disgusting food.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Maybe she wants some chef boyar Day from Shane in
the Can or something.
Speaker 5 (38:40):
There was this one girl who worked with a Red Robin.
Speaker 8 (38:42):
She would have a grilled cheese sandwich and dip it
in mustard and that was her pregnancy craving. Can't I
liked really salty french fries and buttered popcorn from the
movie Theater.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Well, I guess I was pregnant. Salty fries, butter flty fry. Yeah,
all right. Mike lepre Con writes in from Boston, says,
what kind of flowers should you give a lady when
you out of out of favor in her books? I don't,
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (39:12):
I don't know means.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
I don't know what that means.
Speaker 5 (39:15):
And that's your other question to ask, was the last one?
Speaker 1 (39:18):
No, No, we have other questions. JT. The Wingman says,
since I am spending more time at the gym to
change my physique, what do you you women like more
biceps or a nice round.
Speaker 8 (39:27):
Backside, backside, baby backside day.
Speaker 1 (39:31):
Team backside of the Maximum. Really to the Maximus, to
the to the Maximus,
Boom, shaka laka. It's our numbber three, our number three
of the original Recipe podcast. We were up all night
providing fresh pod for your ears. I hope you appreciate
that you don't. Okay, that's fine, we did it anyway.
So here in our number three, the Brooklyn Nets. That's
a basketball team, not a good one. The Brooklyn Nets
(00:22):
plan A is to go for Yannis Adentacumbo. How does
that sound to you? Also, Zion Williamson is being described
as a bust. He's been shut down for the rest
of the NBA season. Which way are you voting on
this one? And an anonymous NBA general manager doesn't think
you can win many playoff series with Jama Rant as
(00:46):
your best player. Is that fair or foul? We'll get
to all of that right now. Give it up for
our number three. It's an absolute free show. Well come,
in the beginning of another hour of The Benmather Show.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
We are in the air everywhere hobnobbers as we are
fair and impartial unless we're not coast to coast, border
the motor and beyond on the mast and markedly powerful
microphones of fs are emmnating live from the drive as
(01:30):
we go into overdrive. We're broadcasting live from the tyraq
dot com studios tyraq dot com. We'll help you get

protection and over ten thousand recommended installers.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
I no slingshot. Who's a big cam Ward fan? Likes
that tire ract dot com the wait tire buying show me.
So our lead this hour is from pro bouncy Ball.
From pro bouncy Ball. Now, as the regular season winds down,
it is actually wondering, and we'll get back to the
(02:11):
football conversation, which has been driving much of the overnight show.
But the story in basketball it's winding down. The playoffs
will eventually start later this month, the last month of
the regular season. There's about seven eight games left for
most teams along those lines, so the talk of the
day is not about the upcoming playoffs. Playoffs. Now, you'd say, well,
(02:35):
what about the Jokic game. He had a massive sixty
plus point game Denver lost to Minnesota. Stephan Curry had
a huge performance for the Warriors and went over fifty
in their game, But everyone's talking about the swap meet.
The transaction continues to be the story that everyone's yapping about.
And we've learned now if you haven't been following the
(02:57):
latest on this, so we have learned that the the Nets,
that's a basketball team, not a good one. The Nets
are showing interest, significant interest in acquiring Buck star Giannis
Adenta Cumbo. Now this is not exactly a revelation, because
why wouldn't you want to add a two time MVP.
(03:18):
The Greek freak as he is known, has been toiling
his craft there in Wisconsin, and he is a person
of interest for the Brooklyn basketball team. Now I get
an email from a big fan of our show who
lives in the Land of the Cheese, and what do
you think you think Giannis wants to go to Brooklyn?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
You leave?
Speaker 1 (03:40):
He's gonna leave the Bucks. You're gonna leave the Bucks? Right,
He's gonna leave the Buck. You'm freaking out. Of course,
I have all the answers that you know. I do
an overnight sports talk radio show, and I am a
distant relative of Nostra Domas and a friend of Nostra Denis.
I've met him one time. Maybe he'll show up to
the one in Vancouver or the meet and greet we're
gonna do. But anyway, all right, So let's get down
(04:01):
to the nitty gritty here. Yannis is under contract through
the twenty twenty six twenty twenty seven NBA season. He
has a player option. He can either tap in or
tap out on that through twenty twenty eight. So the
Bucks have no sense of urgency. They don't have to
get rid of them. He's going to be around for
at least a couple more years. So let us discuss
(04:22):
the Brooklyn Nets Plan A. Plan A is to go
after Yanisidenta koombo. How does that sound to you? So
I've got brass bonanza, commander in chief, and capital grill,
and we will combine all of these things together and
(04:42):
we are going to have an icing penalty, is what
we're going to have. So, first of all, the reaction,
how's it sound? It sounds the Yanisidenta koumbo to the
Brooklyn Nets story sounds like clickbait. It sounds like aggressive daydreaming.
If it's true. And if you dig a little bit
deeper below the surface, it's strategic. I put this as
(05:09):
a weaponized leak, if you will. The Brooklyn basketball team,
which is morbid, is using the art of manifestation, the
art of manifestation. They're getting the word out using useful
idiots in the media, like, hey, we want everyone to know,
we want you to know, we want you to know,
we want want everyone to know what's going on here.
(05:30):
And they're playing the soundtrack brass Bonanza from this old
retired NHL team in Hartford. They're going whaling the Hartford Whalers.
They're trying to catch the white whale. GIANNISI dent to
Coombo and they're hoping to speak it into existence, right,
they're trying to speak it in new existence now for
(05:50):
what it's worth, for what it's worth here. Giannis has
publicly expressed loyalty to Milwaukee. In fact, in recent weeks,
the Yannis said that he would never request the trade
he said he would have. They would have to kick
me out of the Bucks facility, is what he said
(06:12):
to a Greek media outlet. Nevertheless, the speculation continues because
it's great clickbait, that's the most important thing. But also
a couple of years back, Yannis had said something a
little bit different. A little bit different, I mean even
a few months ago he had said that they could
(06:32):
trade him. He had a very emotional reaction to the
Dallas Mavericks fire sale of Luca Donzik and he's liked
well looking. You can get traded, I can get traded
and all that. But the idea, and this was from
the New York Media, that the Brooklyn Nets have Janice's
plan a. You want to bet that the Golden State Warriors,
because Steph Curry is not getting any younger, that the
(06:54):
Golden State Warriors of our also targeted Yannis or the
you know, the Knickerbockers, any host of teams that would
big market teams, the Chicago Bulls that would like to
get their hands on Giannis. It's obvious, all right. Now,
page two, we go to the Bayou, the shores of
the Mighty Mississippi River and the Pelicans, another dog food team.
(07:16):
But I talk about more bad teams. I love bad teams.
I can't get enough of bad teams. So the Pelicans
are an embarrassment. The nickname stupid, the logo's embarrassing, and
the players don't even try most of the time. I
bring that up because the Pelicans announced this week that
they are shutting her down. Shut her down, shut her down,
(07:36):
shut her down, shut her down. It's all over. Zion
Williamson has played his final game for the Pelicans. He
will not play the handful of games the New Orleans
basketball team has left. So this of course opened up
the floodgates. If you didn't catch any of the shrapnel
that was bouncing around, Zion Williamson is being described as
(07:59):
a bust. He's a bust. So which way are you
voting on this? Is Zion Williamson a bust or not
a bust? All right? So the way I will phrase this,
the New Orleans Pelicans thought they were going to be
making a bust of Zion Williamson for the Pro Bouncy
Ball Hall of Fame. Instead, he's a different kind of
(08:21):
a bust, the kind that you don't want to have.
And by any measurement, Zion Williamson is an absolute failure.
He is a zero for the New Orleans basketball team.
Considering what they thought they were getting, what they thought
they were getting, and what they got, the arrow is
(08:42):
pointing squarely in the direction of the bust. In fact,
Zion is the commander in chief of bust Town USA.
Congratulations his talent coming out of college, wrote these giant
cartoon checks that he has been unable to actually cash
(09:04):
the checks have bounced like a basketball up and down
for a player that was tagged as a franchise cornerstone,
a generational talent that will take the rest of those
stiffs on your roster and carry them into the postseason
and great success. The Pelicans have made the playoffs a
couple of times. They have no playoff series wins with
(09:28):
Zion Williamson. And why is that? Zion is like a
fifty to fifty raffle type of player and he's only
there about half the time. He's a fifty to fifty
raffle player. Zion has actually missed if you do the math,
I've done the Mather math on this. So Zion has
missed two hundred and fifty eight games and he has
(09:51):
played in just two hundred and fourteen games. So if
you do the math on that, Williamson has only played
in forty five little over forty five percent of the
games available. He has missed almost fifty five percent of
his work assignments. So he's going to continuation school. And
I know a thing or two about that. He's going
to continuation school. He's been truant, he's tardy. You're in
(10:17):
trouble with that, You're done. Zion has never played more
than seventy games in a season. He has missed entire
years as in plural. All right, turning the page, final thought,
we go to Memphis, where the barbecue is good and
the basketball is not so good lately not so good.
An anonymous I love the anonymous GM. I live for
(10:38):
the anonymous GM. I am so happy that we have
anonymous gms. So an anonymous GM in the NBA does
not think that you not me, but you can win
many playoff series with Jah Morant, the gun total Grizzlies
guard as your best player. Is that fair or foul?
(11:00):
Is that farophoul?
Speaker 4 (11:01):
So?
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Based on a booth review, an expedited booth review, fair ball,
it's a fair ball. Now they have saying if you
go to the Capitol Grille and you get that diet
type menu thing they have there, they'll say, it's all
sizzle but no steak. And in many ways that's Jahn
(11:25):
Morant in big moments, it's all sizzle and no steak.
Ja Morant has played in twenty three playoff games with
the Grizzlies. Memphis has a three to ninety one winning percentage.
They're nine to fourteen in playoff games with Jahn Morant.
His only playoff series win was a couple of years
(11:45):
back against the Minnesota Pro Bouncy Ball team. If I remember,
that was the year that Pat Beverly celebrated the championship
when the Wolves won the playing tournament and then they
went out there and lost to Memphis. I believe that
was the year. But in the plus, it's this odd
juxtaposition because Ja Moran, his numbers are actually better in
(12:06):
the playoffs than the regular season. He averages more points,
he averages more assists, more rebounds. His numbers are better
in the playoffs in twenty three playoff games in his career. However,
they're in many ways hollow numbers because they do not
translate in wins. And they've been in position Memphis to
(12:28):
win some of those series and they only won one
of them. And John Moransley face of the franchise. So
until he actually wins multiple playoff series, it's absolutely fair.
He's got the pen in his hands. He can rewrite
the story. It is the Ben Malors Show. As we
are working our way through the overnight and tractor supply,
(12:50):
they know that a winning season takes practice, teamwork, and
a can do attitude. Thankfully, when you have a neighbor
like tractor supply, teamwork comes easy when for pets, chickens
or a few acres, our team members will help you
succeed season after season, track to supply for life out here.
Time now for the mallor a riddle of the day,
(13:12):
and you can answer the mallor Riddle of the day
on the X machine on the X machine at Ben Mahllar,
and it all ties and there's a synergy to the
malor riddle of the day. The Memphis Grizzlies have a
forward named Jaron Jackson Junior. He was a defensive Player
(13:33):
of the Year. That's his big claim to fame. So
Jaren Jackson Jr. Of Memphis said, We've had wins, We've
had losses. Ain't no reason to feel sorry. It could
always be worse. You could be blank again the mall
riddle of the day. Jaren Jackson said, We've had wins,
(13:55):
We've had losses. Ain't no reason to feel crazy. It
could always be worse. You could be blank. You could
be blank. That is the mallor riddle of the day.
The answer we'll get to it and we will do
it next.
Speaker 4 (14:13):

(15:26):
payoff on the Riddle of the Day. Well, that's right, Bill,
and it as I been here. Here's the Riddle of
the day, Grizzlies forward Jaron Jackson said, we've had wins,
we've had losses. Ain't no reason to feel crazy. Could
always be worse. You could be blank, all right, that
is the malor riddle of the day. Let's see, does
anyone know the answer? Rod the ambassador of Bakersfield, said,
(15:50):
you could be weed man hippie. Yeah. Uh. Fudgie in
Boston says you could be a terrestrial radio talk show host. Yeah,
that would be It would be tough sledding there. King
Rory says a phony from Fullerton seeking love advice from
an overnight sports talk radio show. Well, that's pretty mean
(16:12):
from King Rory. That's below the belt man, how dare you?
You could be a hot tar roofer from late night
drug tester Biffy Air dropped into God's box from Miguel

Holes in your socks? All right? Uh? Incorrect? So Jared
Jackson former Defense Player of the Year in the NBA said,
we we've had wins. Talking about the Grizzlies. We've had wins,
we've had losses. Ain't no reason to feel crazy. It
could always be worse. You could be homeless home way.
We say hello to Jimmy, is in Boston? What's going on? Jimmy? Welcome?
(18:22):
You're on the Ben Mallor Show. Hi, Jimmy, Jimmy. Jimmy
going once, Jimmy going twice. No, Jimmy, Let's say hello
to Tom, who's in the Bay Area. What's going on? Tom? Welcome? Hey,
first time, first time collar, longtime Western. Anyway, that's a
(18:45):
long time. A year's a long time, right, you only
get so many years. A year's a long time. Yeah,
it's gonna all the time at night when I'm driving
my wife back and forth to work at the airport.
Speaker 6 (18:54):
Anyway, the question was I wanted to know if you
think the worst can beat the Lakers on Thursday?
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Oh, just on Thursday? Are you gonna bet on the game?
Is that why you're you're asking? Well, no, I better much?
Was it? I like a big basketball too, But yeah,
I don't live in a state where you can bet
offline on the California Right.
Speaker 4 (19:11):
You can't.
Speaker 1 (19:12):
You'd be wrong. You should not have an illegal bookie.
That would be be wrong. You should not bet illegally. Uh. Yes,
Do I believe the Warriors can beat the Lakers on
a random regular season game on Thursday night? Yes? Absolutely,
assuming everyone's going to play, which is always the big
assumption in the NBA when guys take a lot of
time off. But considering that the Warriors, Lakers and all
(19:34):
these other teams are jockeying for positioning, you would assume
that everyone's going to play, and that, yes, Golden State
with Jimmy Butler, a motivated Jimmy Butler, will cause problems
because Golden State occasionally actually plays some defense. The Lakers
not so much. Not so much. You were so blown
(19:57):
away by that take time, You're speechless. You don't you
don't even know how to add on to that take.
You have no idea why. It's hard to say that.
Speaker 6 (20:05):
I actually have some other questions for you have other ones.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Take all your time. You don't have that. You can
ask another one if you want. I love I was
a kid. Did they go back a long way? Did
the forty nine? Did they did the Niners trade you also,
or you're still on the team, you're still supporting the team.
Speaker 6 (20:22):
Well, I actually met some of the forty nine over
the years.
Speaker 7 (20:26):
Yeah, but anyway, I might.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Fine to ask you about forty nine er is also
now the forty nine ers traded away all their good players.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
So so what's going to happen now? Are they going
to have to recruit a whole bunch of new players?
Speaker 1 (20:40):
And they bought party all the beatings? Well that my
Mike count The Niners have lost seventeen players from last season,
either traded, released, or left on their own and free agency,
so they will feel the full roster. And let's put
it this way, Tom, you better have a lot of
really good draft picks this year. You better than not
(21:00):
f up the draft because that's where most of the
new players are gonna come from, is the draft, which
is later this month. Thank you, Tom for finding the show,
and thank your wife for working at the airport and
having you driver to and from. All right, all right,
thanks Tom, there's that Tom in San Francisco. Let's go

So oh we will be on.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
And just like the Warriors, you gotta get their ass key.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
All right, a lot of ambient noise. Here we go.
Let's get to the game. It is too much or
not enough. All you have to do is get three
right to win. All the answers are either too much
or not enough. And you listening can play along while
you drive or sit on your ass. I don't know
whatever you're doing. Yeah, you can play the game. Here,
here we go. Question number By the way, who pick
(29:22):
up line one? I bet you that's James colmbay. He'll
be so disappointed, all right, Question number one. The Yankees
have had seven different players hit a homer in the
first four games of the season. Is that too much
or not enough?
Speaker 4 (29:38):
I would say that not enough?
Speaker 1 (29:42):
All right? Man Well, and Guardina says, not enough. Is
that correct? That is correct? Get job by you men,
Will Hey and I got no problem with those torpedo
at exactly right. Anybody can use them. It's fine. They
have had nine different players hit a home run, most
ball history through a team's first four games. Question number two,
(30:05):
Stephen Curry has now had eighteen career fifty point games
for the Warriors. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (30:14):
Play the hot hand, Benny, Not enough.
Speaker 1 (30:16):
He says, not enough? Is he right? No, it's actually
too much. Curry has had fifteen career fifty point games.
That is still good for the sixth most in NBA history.
So you're one in one, and we'll move on to
question three for our friend Manuel, a legendary sports talk
radio call. He's also in the jungle. He does a
(30:37):
little bit of everything, all right. Question number three, Rudy
Gobert has the most career wins versus Nikola Jokic with sixteen.
Is that too much or not enough for the Wolves? Center?
Speaker 6 (30:51):
Not enough?
Speaker 1 (30:52):
He says, not enough. Again, let's find out that is right?
Look at that. You got your second right answer. Gobert
has nine teen wins against most of those coming with
the Utah Jazz. He's on Minnesota of course recently. That's right.
Make sure you drink your milk. All right, here we
go question number four. Earlier this week, Carson Kelly recorded
(31:16):
the twelveth cycle by a cub in franchise history. Is
that too much or not enough?
Speaker 6 (31:24):
This is way too much?
Speaker 1 (31:27):
He says, way too much. Let's find out for the win.
That's letter. Congratulations man, Well you win too much? Is
the answer? Or the answer? Ten cycle? Ten cycle and
cup's history, So congratulations to you.
Speaker 3 (31:49):

bat pump yet, you know, to give it a little
extra something.

Yeah, you know, they do actually have lots of mechanical
things for men in that department.

that they'll elite pretty much really disgusting stuff like no, no, no, no, no,
come on, we've all heard that.
Speaker 8 (38:30):
I'm not saying that odd cravings don't exist. I'm saying
that she probably doesn't want to eat your disgusting food.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
Maybe she wants some chef boyar Day from Shane in
the Can or something.
Speaker 5 (38:40):
There was this one girl who worked with a Red Robin.
Speaker 8 (38:42):
She would have a grilled cheese sandwich and dip it
