Mike Rabel, you get the latest on Mike Rabel and
Danny's Rob. We're not going to get into ice because
I know Rob likes this kind of Steve does love
this stuff.

Speaker 3 (03:05):
No, I don't know what CMZ is reporting, not TMZ sports,
the real TMZ.

Speaker 5 (03:09):
So you know it's good that before Diana and Russini
gave birth to her first child, she was pregnant obviously
and uh hopefully why she While she was pregnant, her
and Mike Rabel were the only two occupants on a
rented boat for two to three hours alone on a lake.

Speaker 3 (03:26):
That is unbelievable. Who knows?

Speaker 6 (03:28):
Like, okay, how do they find that out? Like I
get the other thing? Who took the boat out?

Speaker 3 (03:34):
Who would? Do you know?

Speaker 8 (03:35):
What I mean?

Speaker 6 (03:35):
Like yes, like what I'm saying like who? So that
had to been what six years ago or something like
who had been six years ago? Like I guess I'm saying,
I don't even know how to the like, you know what,
let's go through our stuff for six No.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
People know, like they might not say anything at the time,
and then they go back and go, oh yeah, I remember,
you know what. I remember him and her and I
remember them. And then and then they called pick up
the phone.

Speaker 6 (03:58):
And once the TMZ gets in it and checks start
going out, right, I think people been holding on or
something like.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
I tell people all the time, Alex, you're a security
guard at one of the local hospitals here in La
TMZ comes by and they.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
Go such as sizing.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
No, they go, Alex, somebody come in here, celebrity whatever.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
You've been up the phone and you let us know
to check waiting for you.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
They got more so they know all the hospitals are covered.
The restaurant, the maye or d you know, dude, the
guys who do the park, the calls, the valet. They
pay all those guys at all the best restaurants, all
that stuff what's called oh jay Leno's here. They get
a big jay Lenos here. That's how they find out
about where everybody is.

Speaker 5 (04:45):
Seriously, I can't wait for Rob to be in a
scandal because I'm gonna remember everything.

Speaker 6 (04:49):
Yeah, they're gonna be calling, hey, Rob, g we got
a extra dollar for you.

Speaker 5 (04:54):
They're like, you know what, we got enough. I don't
think we're gonna be I got more.

Speaker 3 (04:59):
Pitch.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Unfortunately, my scandal's coming the day after five years.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
I don't beat this scare it comes out.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
And nobody will care about Rob Parker at that point.

Speaker 3 (05:11):
I don't don't be like some other people we see
who All right, stop.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
I do want to say this that uh, condolences to
Ted Turner's family. Ted Turner passed away at eighty seven
years old, and all I want to say is the
one thing I always admired about his story and this
guy want to be a filthy witch. At one point, Alice,
did you know this? He own was the biggest landolder

(05:35):
owner in the United States. He owned more land than
any other single, you know entity in the United States.

Speaker 6 (05:42):
That's why I watched the whole doc on him, like
incredible years ago whatever it was.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah, But the other thing that I admired about him
is he took over his dad's near bankrupt billboard company
in Atlanta when he was like twenty four years old
and turned that around in order to make money and
then became.

Speaker 3 (06:00):
And the idea of CNN.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
I remember people laughing saying a news network in Atlanta, Georgia, huh.

Speaker 3 (06:06):
Twenty four hours. Huh.

Speaker 6 (06:10):
Listen when you can say I own CNN, TNT, TVs,
the Braves, the Hawks, I think life is pretty good.
I think he did pretty well for you. Sure did
so rest in peace eighty seven years old and wrestling.
I mean he did so many different things.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
Without a doubt.

Speaker 6 (06:29):
And you know this just going Atlanta in the nineties,
especially early to the two thousands, like he you felt
the presence without a doubt. I meet her out just
Auden Robertson's from Atlanta, and she was just she texted
her mom like, wow, you know, did you know? And
her mom was like, it's just like a legend for
them in Atlanta, kind of like the Illis family Detroit
as fires owning little seeds. There's tigers, red wings, like
it's oh yeah, kind of wild. One control so much

(06:50):
of it. And then the superstation.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Everybody watched that when cable first came on, and everybody
watched which used to be TBS Channel seventeen, Atlanta, and
then it became a superstation.

Speaker 6 (07:00):
Rest in peace, all right, Rob, g uh, we're here
more and more from somebody who's supposed to be not
mentioned necessarily because he hadn't in the playoffs anymore, that
is Jaylen Brown.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (07:09):
Interestingly enough, this time it wasn't Jaylen Brown who said
something this time. Instead it was a mentor of his,
not a mentee, Rob Parker, a mentor of his. Tracy
McGrady hall of Famer, does a podcast with his cousin,
Vince Carter, and they were talking about some of the
NBA headlines that come out of the first round.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
All Hall of Famers or not.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
Thang it Rob, and of course Jaylen Brown and his
comments and what happened in Boston came up, and during
the conversation, Tracy McGrady said something that everybody's ears perk
up just a little bit in Boston.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
Take a listen.

Speaker 4 (07:43):
This frustration lies deeply within the organization and other things that.

Speaker 3 (07:49):
Of course, of course we don't really have that tails too. Oh,
there's just.

Speaker 4 (07:56):
Been a lot of stuff, you know that I've been
hearing just going on with the Boston organization, with JB.

Speaker 8 (08:02):
You know, so I think part of him is, like.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
I showed you guys more of who I am as
a basketball player, not only just you know what I
did on the basketball court, but the leadership that I
displayed within you know, this team, and you've seen that
not having our you know, best player in JC, You've
seen the different side of me and what I I'm

(08:27):
able to bring to the game of basketball. So all
that stuff, you know, I think just came in to
play with him and his frustration.

Speaker 6 (08:36):
And I think we might be getting to a point
rob where he wants to spread his wings and fly,
not in a negative way either, meaning it doesn't have
to be I hate Jason Tatum, I hate the Celtics.
But I wondered, I there's a point where because I
feel like Tracy McGrady was saying without saying, like one
of those that we've talked and I don't want to
tell all of those personal things he's told me, but
I can see a frustration in a broader sense to

(08:57):
Jaln Brown more than NBA as a whole.

Speaker 3 (08:59):
He as when we had the Olympics.

Speaker 6 (09:02):
Coming off of him winning the finals, MVP and all that,
and he's known in the league. He doesn't get chosen
to the Olympics, right, I think that puts a little
burn in you. He also, you are a finals MVP,
but you're always number two, everybody thinks, Jason Tatan and
then you right or wrong. That would add a little
fuel to you as well. And then you look at
little small things that happened. They had the All Star
weekend out here in Los Angeles this past February.

Speaker 3 (09:23):
His party gets shut down.

Speaker 6 (09:25):
It was philanthropic party, was party with a cause, and
yet his gets shot down in Beverly. He has to
do it to Celtics and his teammates, I'll tell you,
And so it's just.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
If you let me finish.

Speaker 6 (09:37):
My point is, I think he's in a place as
a respected person. What did you come out of this
past series talking about the refs and why they do
with me like that. I think he's gotten to a
place as a whole, as the guide NBA that he
feels like he's being maybe under rated, being a little
up and represented on his own team. Maybe he wants

(09:57):
a little bit more Pool you mentioned he mentioned look
what he did. They were competing for the number one
seed in the East and when everybody thought they would
either be out the playoffs or a lower seed. And
I think there's a point where he wants to feel
we will win. I want I want the responsibility of
having my own team. And remember James Harden with the Thunder,
everybody said why would you stay? Why don't you stay?
Because I told people then he wants his own team.

(10:17):
He wants to be the man right or wrong, fail succeed.
I want to try that. Kobe and Shaq won a
bunch of rings, and it was a point where it
was just like, I just want to try my Kobe
always said I just had to prove that I can
win without Shack. And I wondered if Jalen is getting
to a place where he is saying, man, I want
more responsibility, I want more of a power structure in
within an organization. And not that I don't like Jason Tatum,

(10:40):
not that I hate this team, but I wondering if
he's getting to a place where he wants to spread
his wings and have his own thing. You know you're
at Edwards with the Timberwolves. We know it's his team.
Your Kave with Detroit, we know it's your team. You're
Denver with joker. We know it's your team, and I
wondered if he's getting to a place where all of
these frustrations feeling like I don't have that right now
and I want that.

Speaker 3 (10:59):
I just that it makes no sense to me.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
I'm serious, Like everybody's trying to find a partner, right,
Kay needs a partner. You have a partner, You won
a championship, You've been to tomb This is what everybody
tries to find. And then if you're saying, how is
he being disrespected? Tatum had better numbers than him in
every single category. And guess who won the finals MVP

(11:24):
Jalen Brown, So nobody disrespected him.

Speaker 3 (11:26):
The writers actually look past the numbers, go look Rob
g Am. I wrong.

Speaker 1 (11:31):
He let in every single offensive category and they still
picked him as MVP. So I don't know. The Olympics
is another thing. Jason Tatum didn't play in the Olympics.

Speaker 3 (11:43):
He got disrespected for whatever reason.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
So it wasn't just like, oh wow, you know, Jason
Datum was a starter and I didn't even make the team. No,
Jason Tata felt like he got disrespected and how they
treated him in the Olympics, I just I just don't dude,
if they want to leave or whatever and try to
find some other situations. I just you're leaving a team

(12:06):
where you were the finals MVP when you want a
championship saying I want more respect. That's the ultimate respect.
If I'm Jason Tatum, maybe I'm like ah, you know,
like wow, like Jalen. Jalen did this and held the
team together when I was gone, like they didn't need me.
Maybe he's a guy. Jalen Brown, to me, had cemented himself.

(12:29):
And I thought this year when the way people looked
at him showed that he is that player, the party
thing and all that he was in Beverly Hills and
you know how people Karen's are all over the place,
and if they want to call the police or something,
they don't know who's there, you know what I mean,
they didn't even know Jay that.

Speaker 6 (12:46):
That was what I'm talking about. He believes this and
that's the whole point of this. But I just think
he has mintioned. He thought when you and I disagree
with him, but he thought the NBA and the Refts
are doing him. They having a genda against me. That's
what he thinks.

Speaker 8 (13:02):
Hill.

Speaker 6 (13:03):
But saying that he thinks is because he speaks out
about things. He's very vocal about, you know, social commentary.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
He takes that okay, and the writers could have easily said,
oh yeah, if they got this NBA, don't give it
to Jalen Brown because he speaks out of stuff like like,
I like.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
What is the conspiracy?

Speaker 6 (13:18):
Whose team is the Celtics, Jason Tatum or James No,
it doesn't matter. I'm telling you to respect. Question whose
team is telling you respect? He gets who's whose team
is it? When people thinking the Boston Celtics, who team
is it?

Speaker 3 (13:32):
They could think of Jason Tatum all a wank?

Speaker 1 (13:34):
But what I'm telling you, like the guy who won
the finals m v P without the best numbers speaks volumes.

Speaker 3 (13:42):
Okay, So Andre, that happens. All that happens, does it?
Does happen all the time? Does not?

Speaker 6 (13:47):
Andrea by far had no way near the best numbers
he got.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
That was because that was because Steph was terrible and
his numbers were terrible.

Speaker 3 (13:56):
That's all that does happen. My point is, I just
don't agree.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
If you can find a spot where you could have somebody,
where you're in the mix, where you got a chance
every single year go ask Jannis and ask all these people,
all these guys who were singular uh Luca when he
was in Dallas and all these other places, all these players,
and ask them if they're trying to find who's going

(14:21):
to be my partner in crime. You have it, You've
had success, You've been to the finals twice, You've been
in the mix every year.

Speaker 3 (14:29):
That's why I think.

Speaker 6 (14:32):
Where he didn't have his guy and they are competing
for almost with the one seed. I think that both
does wonders to you, going hmm, makes you start to
think a little bit. And again within organizations, we've seen
this happen where guys want to flex their wings and
spread their wings and flex their muscles and have more
say and have a little bit of control. W a
championship and wanted to leave who I just told you

(14:54):
breaking up shaking Kobe's because.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
Now they had a person that was a personal beef too.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
You know that I just told you.

Speaker 6 (15:00):
James Harden is in and then he was winning. But
he didn't write any finals. He didn't win anything that
was right there in the finals. He knew that that
wasn't And I believe there's a there could be a
potential where you're saying, man, I want to have more,
say I want to do more things. I want to
be and I I I and you to spread your wings.

Speaker 3 (15:19):
I'm absolutely saying the same thing.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
Oh, go ahead, leave Milwaukee. Trying to get Giannis to
leave Milwaukee for years, I've been telling you how funny
stuff to make up?

Speaker 3 (15:29):
You say, I'm telling it himself. Keeps going on and office.
He would be going. He said he would be going
down for you.

Speaker 6 (15:36):
He literally is the one I don't I'm not saying
I don't want to leave it.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
I don't want to stay, but I don't want to leave.

Speaker 6 (15:41):
If he wanted to be gone, be gone, he would
not get the right, the right deal.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
I don't believe it.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
On Fox eight seven seven six sixty twenty sixty nine,

who is a mentor, talking about he seems to be
having some issues with the front office.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
He seems to be obviously he's mad at the refs
with that.

Speaker 8 (17:45):
We know.

Speaker 6 (17:45):
He talked about that on his live stream. A lot
going on with JB eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
Let take some calls.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
We got Mike and Augusta. You're on the odd couple
of Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
What's up, Mike?

Speaker 11 (17:56):
What's up?

Speaker 12 (17:56):
Rob?

Speaker 8 (17:57):
How was going? Fellows? How are you? Everything is good?

Speaker 12 (18:00):
Everything is good except the Braves lost today.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
But it's okay.

Speaker 11 (18:03):
It's on the first series loss of the year.

Speaker 8 (18:06):
But everything's good with that.

Speaker 3 (18:07):
I know they had like the best record in baseball?

Speaker 1 (18:09):
Was it one game or half a game ahead of
the Yankee So the Yankees are getting knocked around.

Speaker 11 (18:14):
The six few games ahead of the Yankees and the Dodgers.
Actually you asked the question, uh, he said, who wins
the championship and wants to leave? And the answer to
that question, is Kyrie Irving and I think he was
a teammate with Jalen Brown at some point and early

(18:34):
in his career.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
Did it have to do with basketball?

Speaker 13 (18:41):
I think it.

Speaker 11 (18:41):
Want to be the man, No that that didn't.

Speaker 3 (18:43):
Have to do with basketball. I have some other issues.

Speaker 6 (18:46):
Yeah, he wanted his own team, and he's talked about
he's regretted it.

Speaker 3 (18:51):
He's mentioned it. Oh he regretted Huh yeah, Okay, all
I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (18:56):
All I'm saying is it doesn't It doesn't make sense
to me when you've gotten the respect, like to me,
winning an MVP on a championship team. I don't care
what other people are saying or the narrative or whatever.
That's pretty damn impressed of Mike.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
I just did.

Speaker 11 (19:13):
And it doesn't make sense. But it's it's not out
of the scope of a possibility.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
I'm not, of course, it's not out of scope of possible,
But I just think it's dumb. Everybody else is trying
to find somebody to team up with. It doesn't make
sense to leave somebody that you've had a winning success.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
If they make a couple.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
Of threes, I know they gotta mix in a three
every once in a while, but but it's crazy.

Speaker 3 (19:34):
Do you think there's an element though?

Speaker 6 (19:35):
Rob, I get what you're saying, Like, and you and
I both talked about like a couple of weeks ago,
Rob G had the question. We both agreed, No, you
keep riding. These two young guys are twenty eight, twenty
nine years old. I'm with you on that, But do
you not see sometimes guys like maybe they want more
saying to who we bring it in?

Speaker 3 (19:50):
What's the goal? That happens a lot.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
But that's my that's my issue, like just play like
because guys who want to be GM's and all that
when things go wrong.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
Lebron wanted Westbrook and then he don't.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
He don't know what happened, right, you got here's your
Instagram and them doing a pow wow at your backyard
and all this, let's celebrate in Westbrook and all that,
and then when it doesn't pan out, ain't nobody there?

Speaker 6 (20:15):
Then Lebrony I saw the team. I didn't even know
he was gonna be here. But that's the same, that's
all I'm saying to your play moment. That's the same
thing with Gianni's I want to do this. I get
you damn Now, I'm not happy with David. If he
didn't want to be there, I'm saying he started to
become more vocal. I want this and do this. Go
get Adrian Griffin out of here, Go get Doc Rivers.

Speaker 3 (20:34):
So I'm saying I never heard him say that. I
think it was a mistake.

Speaker 6 (20:39):
What I know it was a mistake. I'm saying, you
don't think they let Adrian Griffin go?

Speaker 3 (20:43):
No, But I'm just saying I never heard him say
bring Doc Rivers in. I can't. I can't believe that
giannest is the one who said bring doctor that. You
don't make moves with a twenty nine year old.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
I don't remember coming off championship playing Tony Kacho had
a championship in his back pocket. But I'm on howstatic
he was for Doc Rivers, considering his history and what
he had done in the last It.

Speaker 3 (21:05):
Was excited about Doc. I don't believe he said it
in the press conference. Of course he did. That was
just for show.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Uh, Adam and DVD, I don't believe it, is what
I'm telling you, Adam and d C.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
You're on the odd couple of Fox Sports Radio. What's
up at him.

Speaker 8 (21:19):
That's my favorite radio show.

Speaker 14 (21:20):
Hey listen, that's why I let you because you you
be a little bit of sometime. But you got some
facts O G. Because why is data complaining when you
won the finals? NBG rever, I just nothing complain about.
And really it just pointed like a way a lot
of these players in the generation.

Speaker 3 (21:35):
Man, It's like you.

Speaker 14 (21:36):
Can give them the world, but they still complain.

Speaker 3 (21:38):
Right, you gotta go to make saying the finals like
he didn't earn it, you're not.

Speaker 8 (21:46):
He had the numbers.

Speaker 3 (21:47):
He didn't have the numbers.

Speaker 1 (21:48):
And that's what was impressive that he wanted is that
they look past just the raw numbers and said.

Speaker 14 (21:54):
Real quick, maybe it's Boston. I mean, I'm not not,
but like through and we know this, we know his
style that's different.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
It might not be.

Speaker 6 (22:05):
That's the great point. That's the right point. Appreciate it, listen,
Bill Russell.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
We have to see that what is that? I can't
even see who that. I don't even know where he is.
I just threw up in my mouth. Why are you blood?
And how can you hold on one second? KWHI?

Speaker 6 (22:24):
How can you be mister boxing? I was at all
the big fights and when They literally have a phrase.
It's called a boxing cut because I get split open.
How you like all that? But you every time I
sit next to you, one little thing? But can we
turn Rob, g Alex?

Speaker 3 (22:38):
Can you turn? Can you off? Turn it off?

Speaker 5 (22:41):
You?

Speaker 3 (22:42):
It'll be a movie, some movie the Mummy returns.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
I don't want to see that, the bugs going to
their skin and all that.

Speaker 3 (22:52):
I don't want to see that. I don't want to
see you literally get squirmy. You know that, right? I
understand bugs.

Speaker 13 (23:01):
Oh, thank you, I understand bugs, But like blood and stuff,
that's lush.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
It's just let me. Yeah, you get Yeah, I've seen you.

Speaker 13 (23:09):
You're kind of like, oh I can't see that. Somebody
got hit, you.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
Know, like it's just like you don't get it. I
bush my teeth too hard and it bleeds. I pass out.
That's actually funny. Oh yeah, yeay.

Speaker 13 (23:21):
Is there something that doesn't make you squirmy?

(24:04):
Brentson has sixteen points. Anthony Edwards has been cleared to play,
and we'll play a little bit more minutes than he
did in Game one. Not sure if he's gonna start yet.
Nine thirty Eastern time, tip off between the Timberwolves and
the Spurs in San Antonio in the NHL Playoffs. The
Sabers are beating up the Canadians four to one, seven
minutes left to go in the second period. In Major

(24:26):
League Baseball, Tigers left hander From Bervaldez received a five
game suspension, originally with six games, but it got the
good kick down one game for intentionally throwing at Red
Sox shortstop Trevor Story during Tuesday's games. Right now, the
Tigers are getting shut out by the Red Sox four
to zero, top of the seventh, Orioles on top of
the Marlins five to five to three, top of the seventh,

(24:48):
and the Athletics are edging the Phillies three to two
bottom of the seventh. Back to you, guys, Thank you, Bree,
You're so welcome.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
Thank you, Bream. I'd say that, I didn't. I'm so jealous.

Speaker 8 (25:00):
Oh you're not.

Speaker 6 (25:01):
Oh no you're not. No, you know you're take it
from me.

Speaker 3 (25:06):
No, you're not. You're It's great that you're there where
you are, And unfortunately I had to be here.

Speaker 6 (25:12):
But fortunately Rick Camdler is with US host to Beyond
the Surface for X Rated Sports. Rick Candler's sports on
X Give him a follow, Rick. What's going on, man?

Speaker 11 (25:21):
Oh, what's going on?

Speaker 3 (25:22):
Guys?

Speaker 12 (25:22):
Thanks for having me back on.

Speaker 6 (25:24):
No doubt, man, we're just talking hoops all day. Of course,
there's a lot going on. What do you make of
We were just talking about Jaylen Brown. Obviously he's you
think he'd go to caan coon like they you know
he's supposed to do, but he's been around.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
He was mad at the refs.

Speaker 6 (25:37):
Tracy McGrady, a mentor his talked about kind of was
hinting at maybe there's some things in organization. Where are
you at with the Celtics right now? Kind of the
two jas? Are you saying keep rolling the dice with him?
They've won before? Are you one of those? I might
explore something, maybe a trade. Where are you with the
Jalen and Jason?

Speaker 12 (25:55):
Great question? If if I'm Boston, I don't want to
trade Jalen Brown for Giannis because Giannis is an aging,
more and more injury prone player who's not going to
age well because of the lack of skill. However, Jalen
may force my hand here Jalen's saying. And by the way,

(26:15):
I want to say before I go into any of this,
I love Jalen Brown. I love the human. I love
the ballplayer. I love the competitiveness. He's always in phenomenal shape.
He's a show up and play guy. He's clutched, tremendous player.
I love Jalen Brown.

Speaker 3 (26:29):
What about the hair dye on uniforms.

Speaker 12 (26:32):
I wasn't crazy about that twitch deal or switch deal
or whatever the hell you call it. Where he's saying
that this was his favorite year. Guys, there's a huge
message embedded in there. You want to ship. He won
not one, but two trophies East Finals and Finals, two trophies.

Speaker 8 (26:52):
He was the dude.

Speaker 12 (26:53):
The media said he.

Speaker 8 (26:54):
Was the dude.

Speaker 12 (26:55):
And I get it. This year you were the man.
You went pipping when Jordan was out. That year, I
get it, you entered the NBP Race and all that
kind of stuff. But to hear him say this was
his favorite year. When you just get lost in the
first beat in the first round, blow in a three
to one lead, that tells me Jalen Brown wants his
own team. Okay, so I don't know about discontent with
your organization, but that tells me Jalen is ready to

(27:18):
be a number one. So if I'm Boston, that may
force my hand. And by the way, I want if
I'm Boston, I want more than Giannis for Jalen Brown. Okay,
I ain't sweetening that deal. I need you to get
me Giannis and and that I'll trade you Jalen Brown.
But it looks like that might be where we're headed.

Speaker 1 (27:36):
I just wouldn't move on. I wouldn't trade him. I
just I'm sorry. I would just be like, you got two.
I would convince him you don't want to do this.
This is what all these other players going around trying
to find a partner. You can't win by yourself is
really where you want to be. Unless they really just
can't coexist with each other. There's always going to be

(27:56):
somebody who gets a top billing, right. It was Mick
Jagger and the Rolling Stones, it was Diana Ross and
the Supreme Do you know what I mean? Like, it
didn't start out that way, but that's just how it is,
and and and it happens that way. But it doesn't
mean that you're not a big part of what they're doing.

Speaker 3 (28:13):
I want to go to.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
The Nickson the seventy six ers. I'm not surprised that
the seventy six ers didn't roll over the night and
just be like, ohmb's out, we can't win.

Speaker 3 (28:23):
And they've played hard.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
I didn't see the score, and they tied at the
half or up by two or something.

Speaker 6 (28:29):
I have to check it, but I think it was
like a three year.

Speaker 3 (28:32):
They're up by one. But but I'm considering how they
got demolished.

Speaker 9 (28:37):
Rick.

Speaker 1 (28:37):
Would you feel good if your Philadelphia You're at Madison
Square Garden but out when you start playing, you're up
by one at the half.

Speaker 12 (28:44):
Yes, but no, because Joel Embiid is out again, So
you're not doing anything anything with the up and down
fifty to fifty Joel Embiid. So if I'm a Philly fan,
even coming out of the eight hundred point in Game one,
I'm still like, Yo, we got Embid. We can still
do this.

Speaker 8 (29:03):
Okay.

Speaker 12 (29:03):
We had a debate on my show a couple of
days ago our show. I should say it is Philly
the most talented team in the East, not the best team,
the most talented, Okay, I believe they are. And I
should say of the teams that are left right, of
the four teams left, I feel like they are the
most talented team went healthy remain. Does that mean they'll win?

Speaker 8 (29:23):
No?

Speaker 12 (29:24):
You know why I said that, I said and why
I picked the Knicks to win this series because I
just don't trust Joelle Embiid and Paul George. Okay, it's
always something with these guys. They literally Joelle Embiad's fifty
to fifty playing or not playing for his entire career.
Paul George, ever since he went to the Clippers, has

(29:44):
been fifty to fifty whether he plays or not. Look
at the Game one, So and you guys know this,
of course, So no New York is gonna come out
with a bald up fist. They're gonna have a huge
third quarter. They're probably gonna end up winning this game
by about thirteen. But it has been an impressive first
half from Phil. I just don't think it's sustainable without
the big fella. And guys, can Karl Anthony Towns please

(30:05):
stop getting these dumb ass filed.

Speaker 3 (30:06):
No, that's what he does.

Speaker 6 (30:08):
I think in the last three years he has more
files than in anybody you filed out the most in
anybody like he. It's so confusing and I would be
saying frustrating if I was a Nick fan watching his file.

Speaker 3 (30:18):
There terrible time.

Speaker 6 (30:19):
If he misses a shot he thought he was filed on,
then he has to file the defender.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
It just does.

Speaker 6 (30:24):
It hurts the team so much. So I'm with you
on that. Let me ask you to stay in the
East a little bit. Game one Eastern Simmis. You had
to course the Pistons hosting the Calves. What did you
make of that game the Pistons got out of Have
they found a stride at all?

Speaker 5 (30:37):
Now?

Speaker 3 (30:37):
Having won four straight?

Speaker 12 (30:40):
They certainly have. You know, Orlando forced them to kind
of Regalvinez. Let me, let's be honest, if Franz Voger
doesn't blow a tire, or Orlando is in this route, Okay.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
There's no doubt. There's no doubt in my mind.

Speaker 1 (30:52):
E though, and they had a historic loss there that
they'll never live down. You missed what one for twenty
in the fourth quarter and twenty four straight shots, which
is crazy.

Speaker 12 (31:01):
But anyway, yeah, exactly exactly, but you know, but here
they are right, you survived all of that. The bottom
line is, guys, and I'd love to hear your take
on this. We're going to debate this on our show tomorrow.
Are we sure that Donovan Mitchell and James Harden fit? Okay,
the regular season, it fit, it worked, you won, you
beat you know, Washington and Brooklyn and Sacramn. Okay, you

(31:25):
had a good record and all this kind of stuff.
But now that we're in the playoffs, they're setting records
for most turnovers as a team. James Harden had seven
in Game one. He's been a turnover machine the entire playoffs.
Donovan Mitchell, who's been a walking thirty in every playoff
game he's ever played, is now hovering around twenty. I
don't think he's cats fit man, and I picked Detroit

(31:47):
to win the series anyway. But I think this is
going to become a narrative that gross. What do you
guys say about that.

Speaker 6 (31:52):
I've never been in a cat he knows this. I've
never liked the Calves. I just don't think there's since Homer,
So it doesn't matter. That makes yeah, because I'm just
saying all years picked.

Speaker 3 (32:05):
In fact, we have all the tapes.

Speaker 6 (32:06):
So when they got James Harden, I said, Donovan Mitchell
is not just.

Speaker 3 (32:11):
Are you a Pistons fan? Yes or no?

Speaker 1 (32:13):
That's literally I'm asking your question. But I'm just I'm here,
I'm asking you a question. Are you asking nothing?

Speaker 3 (32:21):
A real question? Very much? So, Rick, I'm asking are
you okay?

Speaker 6 (32:24):
Have I told you about the way before this? I'm
just saying, so back to your point your question. So, Rick,
I just want you to have some context to yes. So,
like I was saying, Rick, so when they got James Harden,
I said it. Then I said, James Harden is known
for not producing in the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
Am I right or wrong?

Speaker 4 (32:38):
Rick?

Speaker 12 (32:40):
It's I mean, the the most locked bet of all
time is betting against James Harden in a big playoff game,
not game one, two, three, or four, but five, six,
and seven. If you bet against him in those games,
you will win money. It's documented.

Speaker 6 (32:53):
So now you're pair them with Donovan Mitchell, who, as
you mentioned, has not gotten out of the first round,
and you pay him with some other bigs who can
disappear in Mowbley and Allen. And that was my point
of why I just never have liked the Calves the
last few years. They get out in the second, they
get out in the same spot, and they don't.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
They underachieved. Their coach knows that.

Speaker 6 (33:09):
If you heard them the other day, he was saying,
I know everybody's Bickerstaff. When Bickerstaff was there's coaching. No,
but when he was there, I'm saying when he was
in Cleveland, right, But we're talking about.

Speaker 1 (33:22):
But I'm asking no, no, no, But I'm asking you, so
Bickerstaff was a part of it.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
What he was like, I was talking about Kitty Akins.

Speaker 6 (33:27):
Okay, So he say he just said that that that
he say he knows where his team is. We know
they got to put up or shut up there in
a situation where people are going to go, all right,
we've seen this before from you. Are you going to
be able to produce? So I'm with you. I'm not
a big fan of them, Rick lass Thing. I just
want to ask you.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
The big question is not can the Lakers cover the
big spreads that they have every night, but can they
win a game in this series?

Speaker 11 (33:51):
Does this sound right to you?

Speaker 12 (33:53):
When a guy like Luka Dacia to with his teammates
bleeding out on the battlefield at a press conference, is
expressing nowhere and see it all about coming back, and
he goes to Spain and the second he went to Spain,
I know this guy's done, Like, go to Spain? Why?
Why the hell would you do that? I don't If
the doctor tells you you're going to miss eight weeks

(34:14):
with a grade two hamstring strain, it's not grade three,
it's grade two. Okay. Do you think ant Man would
accept that answer or do you think he would accelerate that.
Do you think Jalen Brunson would accept that answer or
do you think he would accelerate that? Okay, these guys
would have already they would have started the playoffs on time,
and you know what they would have done. They'd be
playing at sixty percent seventy percent, they'd be in pain,

(34:37):
they'd have to go through treatment, their life would be
a buzz killed. But you know what they're playing, Okay,
I think Lucas putting his happiness, his comfort, his precious
off season over the Lakers pursuit. Here, guys, they were
in the game, Okay, I don't okay, see won by
eighteen or whatever. Sga had his worst game of the year.
He looked off, he was awful, turning the ball over,

(34:58):
missing shots under twenty. It's literally his worst game of
the year. That was the game you could go in
there and beat them and change the map of the series.
But of course Luca, oh man, you know the doctor
said that week, so it's got to be eight weeks. No,
the hell it doesn't.

Speaker 6 (35:14):
Well, I hear you, and I just wonder for him
and maybe even the Lakers. They said, we probably can't
beat them anyway, and we'd rather have Luca for the
long haul. But I'm with you that a lot we've
seen guys KD come back and get hurt with these
with the Warriors and Clay and guys have come back
to just have a chance to win it. Before Rick,
we go up against it Man, Thank you so much.

Speaker 5 (36:38):
One's got to go. We make the tough decisions on
this show. And uh, I don't know if you guys
know this. I'm sure Rob does because he fought flies
once a week. It seems like it does. So Spirit
Airlines is gone, gone forever, Rest in peace buried in
that headline, because that's been the big headline. Delta Airlines
announced this week that they will no longer provide free

(36:58):
food and beverage flights under three hundred and fifty miles.

Speaker 3 (37:03):
Everybody's getting used to get the free.

Speaker 5 (37:04):
Drink, the coca cola, the coke, yourskets, little cook, what
the water coffee gone?

Speaker 3 (37:10):
You ain't getting out either.

Speaker 5 (37:11):
So I got us thinking, one's gotta go the new
things that used to be free, which now you gotta
pay for. So you're saying, of this list, I will
never n ot. I am not paying for this, no
matter how many times I fly. Number one, fair okoy,
the checklok fair enough, Number two assigned seating number three,

(37:34):
the food and beverage. We mentioned that number four Wi fi.

Speaker 3 (37:41):
This is not easy, Rob, Okay, we get a good one.
We got a good one done. You know he is
right now? Let me know you're saying that if I.

Speaker 8 (37:51):
Mean, there's just more question you have to ask me.

Speaker 3 (37:54):
I ask you no more. You know the question in.

Speaker 8 (37:56):
Order for me to tell you about myself.

Speaker 6 (37:58):
You can't give you the whole spiel.

Speaker 8 (38:02):
I don't even know where you're sitting at.

Speaker 6 (38:04):
Boy, is that oh you want me to go?

Speaker 3 (38:08):
No, I take Wi Fi. I'm gonna give up on
the Wi Fi. You won't pay for that.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
I won't pay for it. If I have to give
up one of them. I like to say, you're not
gonna pay for a bag. I don't want to pay
for a bag, but at some point, I got no choice.
If I'm traveling a big trip, gotta eat something flying.

Speaker 3 (38:25):
Remember we live in LA. Most of my.

Speaker 1 (38:27):
Trips are east coach and I can't go the whole
flight without eating five hours like that's a lot.

Speaker 3 (38:33):
And then I gotta have an exit. Bro, I don't care,
I just have I can't. I can't sit that long.
This one is tough for me.

Speaker 6 (38:39):
I'm still battling between Wi Fi because you bring up
an excellent pot. I just don't want I just don't
feel like that. Come on, just give me the free
movies and all that good stuff or food to me.
If I'm gonna pay for this old cheese box, I
somebody's will bring up my.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
Real food, dagging. I'm going food bump on that. I'm
bringing up my own food. I will get my up.
I gotta play eleven dollars or some cheese.

Speaker 6 (38:59):
And risk gets Sometimes you can't get me stop.

Speaker 1 (39:04):
If I always go and buy myselff before I even
go to the airport, right, Sometimes you get stuck and
you have food.

Speaker 3 (39:12):
Good alex free.

Speaker 13 (39:15):
I would say, I'm not paying for food. I'm already
going to overpay in the airport for food and boost
and everything else. And if anything, I'll just like drink
a ton and just pass out on the flight. So yes,
I'm gonna I'm not gonna pay for food and plus
the food on what they're gross.

Speaker 3 (39:30):
Yeah, I don't know how old it is.

Speaker 13 (39:32):
I don't know where it came from. I don't want it.

Speaker 3 (39:33):
Remember he brought in an airport turkey, would you bring
sale too? Was reduced on the plane. It was reduced,
you were reduced stomach.

Speaker 7 (39:46):
I'll say this that I'm with you rob Like, I
think it's funny that we have to pay to put
a luggage underneath. If I don't pay, it's gonna be empty.

Speaker 3 (39:52):
Anyways.

Speaker 7 (39:52):
You should give me free luggage to take on the planet.
It's stupid, but I'm with all of you from majority
food like food already is very like the peculiar, and
like very particular on.

Speaker 3 (40:02):
Heat and et cetera.

Speaker 7 (40:04):
I don't know what goes on when it goes thirty
four thousand feet above air and what that does to
my food. And also like if it's left over, I
don't know.

Speaker 3 (40:09):
Man, it was just it just whack. I'll just fast.
I used to have good food. You used to be
able to bring a knife on the planes. That's your
own meat.

Speaker 6 (40:16):
Yeah, well ship, you know things happened nine eleven, wings
happen Freedom Act.

Speaker 5 (40:22):
Most of my flying these days is done by myself, surprisingly,
so I will be willing to not ever pay for
a sign seating.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
I get that. I don't mind by myself.

Speaker 5 (40:30):
I'm five foot two, I'm on the week go we
