It is The Odd Couple.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
I'm Chrissy's Rob our number three on the TV theme
song Thursday and Rob. The Indiana Pacers have just eliminated
the Milwaukee Bucks one twenty to ninety eight, so they
take them down in six games. No surprise you and
I picked the Pacers anyway. I actually thought when we
(00:53):
picked them, Dame was clearly healthy. He was hey tonight too,
and we thought, yeah, I thought Yannis would be back
man be game three or so, though, But I still
thought Indiana's gonna get him. Look, it's good for Doc Rivers, Rob.
I'm not good for him, but you know, like you
can't blame Doc for this.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
No Duck gets a good.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Yeah, I mean we know he didn't do a great
job with them this year, or even a good job
really they weren't even five hundred under him. But you know,
now get healthy, they need to ask some athleticism on
the wing. They gat some changes to do, but you know,
they got a whole off season to do it. And
so that's one so called or supposed behemoth in the East.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
That's gone.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
All right, But rob Let's talk Lakers now. We can
get back to the Bucks a little bit later. But

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Post it. Right after we get off the air.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
We got Tyson Tower of Trivia coming up at the
bottom of the hour. That is always fun starring DJ
Alex Tightshirt. But in the meantime, rob Let's talk about
the Lakers, and there was some kind of news today
reports that Darvin Ham is expected to be relieved of
(02:29):
his coaching duties by the end of the week.
Speaker 4 (02:32):
Was that Johann Buja Jo friend of the show, Yeah,
that he reported it. Chris that the people that he's
talked with say that it could happen as early as tomorrow,
but this week is expected, correct, yep.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Well, so what are your thoughts on this? Ridiculous? Just
for real?
Speaker 4 (02:52):
I mean, this is this is the world you live
in with lebron to Chris, he some people think he's
the goat and if you don't, if they don't win,
you become the scapegoat. No matter who it is that
something went wrong, and that's where we are. I'm not
there's Darvin Ham the greatest coach you have a coach
in the NBA, Chris, No, but come on, you can't
(03:12):
keep running people out every time something doesn't go right.
And you took the time to hang that banner. And
I keep talking about the end season tournament because it
was it was supposedly a big deal, wasn't it, Chris?
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Was that they put a banner up, which it says
a lot considering you're the Lakers and you got seventeen championship, right,
So I agree, Like, like you didn't have a problem
with it, but now you want to act like it was.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
It don't matter, right, That's what I'm saying, Like, now
you're saying it didn't matter and it's no big deal.
So you put the banner up and you and you
you're losing a series, a gentleman's sweep, and now Darvin
Ham has to be sacrificed. I just it doesn't sit
right with me because you can't keep doing this. And
then I got to look at JJ Reddick or ty
(03:56):
lou As did you see that?
Speaker 5 (03:58):
Well? Not time?
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I mean Ty No, that's what The Clippers have a
year left with him under contract.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
But the Lakers won him. Oh now they yeah, they
won him. But how they gonna get him out of that?
What are they gonna have to give up? And I'm
not I mean for the Clippers to hook up the Laker.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
No, And if I'm if I'm Steve Balmer, I'm not
doing that.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
I don't Why would Why would I?
Speaker 5 (04:22):
Right?
Speaker 1 (04:23):
Even if he wasn't gonna coach for me, he's not
coaching for you exactly.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Now that's for dar not as long as he's under contract.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
No, No, but I look, I agree with you, Darvin Ham.
Could he coach when you won the end season turns?
Could he coach when you went to the Western Conference
finals last year in his first season as a coach?
Speaker 3 (04:45):
Could he coach.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
He maneuvered the Russell Westbrook stuff, the mess y'all created.
He maneuvered it up until the trade deadline, and then
y'all traded him, and then all he did was help
get y'all to the Western Conference Finals when y'all were
bragging about finishing the season eleven and threep and with
one of the top five records in the second half
(05:08):
of the season.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Could he coach then?
Speaker 4 (05:10):
And there was no mention Chris of not being able
to get any kind of rhythm because of injuries cohesiveness?
How did you win eleven out of fourteen to close
it out?
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Then?
Speaker 1 (05:21):
And Rob Lebron after the playoff series against Denver mentioned
the injuries when he was asked about, well, what you're
making the Tea's like, you know, we were injured all
the time.
Speaker 3 (05:34):
Every time we got going, somebody got hurt.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
It's hard to know what we were And Rob, you know,
I look, they were arguably.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
One of the top five teams in the NBA. Chris,
who do we just have on the radio? Antonio Daniel?
Who did he pick in the series? Lakers? Hello?
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Did he would you have picked him? If he would
have been like, I don't know who they are. They're inconsistent,
they're injury. They're injury, there's no way they can win.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
He picked them. That's how good he felt about the team,
Chris and Rob.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Had they not played face Denver, they may have been
favored over just about anybody else in the West West. Now,
I'm not saying they definitely beat Minnesota or OKC or
the Clippers, but it would have been It would have
been tough. And they even played Look they got beating
the Gentleman's sweet but those games were close. And I
(06:30):
look again, like you said, we're not saying Darvin ham
is read. He made some mistakes. He's got a lot
to learn. But when you rob the list, let's.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
Go down the list. JJ Reddick.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Now, I do think JJ Reddick will be a good
coach when he starts coaching in the NBA for a
young team like.
Speaker 3 (06:51):
He interviewed with Charlotte something like that.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
But Rob, he's a contemporary Lebron.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
They about to listen.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
I don't think it's about to give you that respect, right,
They're gonna they're gonna listen to JJ because he won
how many championships would that be zero?
Speaker 3 (07:10):
Would that be zero?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
So he's Lebron's podcast partner. You did, that's gonna be
some authority. How good is that? How good is that?
Speaker 3 (07:17):
Right? And that's the issue, Rob, Steve.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Kerr and Phil Jackson. Uh, they weren't great players in
their day. To your point, they did win championships. They
were role players on championship teams. But even beyond that, Rob,
they coached the next generation. Yes, they didn't coach a
bunch of dudes who used to take them to the whole,
dunk on them and talk trash to him.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
It's just different. Jajon Reddick's their age.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
But that's because Chris the people. He has a high profile,
you know that, and people get caught up. I'm gonna
tell you this. It's the same thing that happened Chris.
And this is probably the biggest example.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
If you remember when Matt Millan was doing television and
doing football, you would listen to that guy and be like,
this dude knows everything about football.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
Am I right? Chris? Every he was.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Great on television, okay, Matt, and and people used to
listen to Madigot this guy knows everything about football. Blah
blahlah blah blah, right, Matt had no experience Chris as
a general manager, and then they the Lions, turned over
the keys to him and he probably turned in the
worst nine years or whatever it was, and the worst
(08:37):
general manager and pro sport and that, And all I'm
saying is be careful when you're listening to somebody tell
you, you know what I mean talking about the game, and
this whole notion that oh yeah, well just put JJ
Redick in there and this will be great or whatever
because he knows basketball.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
I'm again, all the coaches know and o's, right, I mean,
they all know ex'es and o's. There's no doubt about it. Now,
you gotta be able to relate to the players. You
have to be able to get their respect. They have
to be willing to listen to you. Like it's a
lot involved in it. But they all know x'es and o's.
I'm not saying some aren't better than others in ex'es
(09:20):
and o's, but they know it. But here, let's go
through some of the other names, because to show you
how foolish this is. Mike Budenozer, well, there were similar
complaints about him in Milwaukee to what there are with
Darvin in LA he got to make adjustments in the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
What's he doing now? They fired him in Milwaukee.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I always thought Budonozer was a good coach, and now
I bet you they wish they had.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Him back, no doubt about it.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Right, So that just shows you every coach you can
criticize and find fault with.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
So that's two of the ones. Why are you bringing
them in over?
Speaker 1 (09:58):
If not to mention Darvin was a longtime assistant for
Bootonnozer in Atlanta and Milwaukee.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Rob another name out there, Terry Stotts. How many times
had we gotta hear about Terry Stotts? What all did
he do in? Nothing?
Speaker 6 (10:12):
Right?
Speaker 1 (10:13):
I mean he's a good, cold, good good offensive mind.
Defense was always terrible, but really like what okay? What
were some other names?
Speaker 3 (10:23):
Oh? Kenny Atkinson? Okay, I bet that'll go over well
with Lebron and yeah, and Kyrie and and KD ran
him out.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
Of town as soon as they got there, if you remember, Yeah,
they got there.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
Mark Jackson.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I'd love to see him get a shot, but you know,
I don't think that'll happen.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
What was another that?
Speaker 7 (10:44):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Yeah, we already talked about it.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
It was Barrega was out there again, he got fired up.
Where was he at Charlotte Orlando one of those places.
I mean, it's a bunch of retrands, is the points.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
And with John Rondo, Chris is being mentioned that again
at Jerry Stack he was available.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
He coached Vanderbilt.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
I'm just saying, Rob, here's the Lacy coach Till Jackson
out there. I get it when the Lakers with the
Phil Jackson is like, Okay, it's Phil Jackson. He's won
everywhere and that worked out. These guys are retreads. That
doesn't mean they're not good coaches, but you're not getting
anything in them that you don't know you couldn't eventually
(11:27):
get from Ham.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
There you go that.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Going in pro he's already actually had a little bit
of success.
Speaker 3 (11:33):
He's going to improve.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Talk to him about the challenges instead of just look
smiling in his face and then talking to the media
behind his back about how you about the ax him.
Why don't you be a man and talk to him
about Darvin?
Speaker 3 (11:48):
We need you.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
This is what we were disappoint Here are areas that
we need to improve in.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
Okay, why we need you to do better?
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Because obviously they were doing something all right when they
won the in season and when they finished eleven and three,
Chris going into the playoffs. So it ain't like I'm
with you. None of the other guys you're talking about.
Are you positive they're going to be better than Dbenham?
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Not not at all. I mean you just making change
for change, and Rob.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
Good organizations don't get a new coach every two years. No,
let's Denver, Mike Malone's been there several years now. Now
you got Chris Finch in Minnesota. I bet you he's
not going anywhere for a long time.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
No.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
When Utah had Jerry Sloan, Robb never won a champion.
Kept Jerry st.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Jerry Sloan was coached for about twenty five years at least.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
And they won a lot.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
You know, you don't just make change for Eric Sposter
is another one, Rob. When Lebron and d Wade that
first year together, they wanted.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
Him out and wouldn't do it. Yep.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
This is what I say to the Lakers rock because
pat Riley empowered Sposter. When they thought, oh he got
too much swag for a dude who ain't done nothing,
pat Rowley said, look, this is the coach period.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
And if you're.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Gonna win, it's gonna be with him. And they went
out there and they played for him. I get it
that the Lakers don't have anybody with.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
The clout of Riley Robber.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
No, no, but if Jenny Bust or Rob Pulling, if
they said, look, we're not this is our coach.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
We're not changing.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
We're not gonna pay Darvin Ham for the next few
years and then pay somebody else.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
And he didn't do a terrible job.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
This is your coach now, Like you said, Rob, if
you want to test me, that's a test for Lebron.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
I don't know that Lebron wants him out or not.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
No, but that, but that you're saying, well, if you don't,
if you don't want to be, he's our coach, so right,
so you have a right you could come back or
opt out.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
This is what we're doing here.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
We're not gonna change coaches again, and and hang a
banner and all this other stuff and then act like
none of it matter.
Speaker 3 (14:00):
Which one is it? Which one is it?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
And Rob, like you said, we're not acting like Darvinham
is guy's gift to coach, not at all, or that
he didn't make so much nobody there, christ right, give
me the name. Mike d'antoni's name was out there for
goodness sake, really, and you.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Want to go that route again, he already coached you,
and what did he win?
Speaker 5 (14:21):
Right?
Speaker 3 (14:21):
And what did he win?
Speaker 1 (14:22):
He wasn't good the Lakers there Obviously it didn't go well.
I mean, it's just it's changed for change.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Sake, that's all it is.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Rob Mike Brown got fired by the Lakers and the Calves.
Now he's in Sacramento doing a great job. Tylu got
fired by the Calves. I'm just saying this this. We
talked about it with Antonio. If the players get all
the credit, but then when they lose, it's the coach's fault.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
Can it can't be that way? It can't.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
I've said that all the time. There's a lot of
that going on, and the same thing. They don't want
to give up. If the players play well, it's all
about them, And then you can't because because Chris it
has to go hand in him both ways.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
Yeah, all right, A seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
You'll turn away. And should Darvin Ham be fired and
who's the replacement? That's another big thing who you replace
anym with a seven seven ninety nine on Fox A

do you want Darvinham fired? And if so, who you're

Speaker 3 (16:54):
Your thoughts? Man? Here we go, here's we were to him?
Life is a great big hang up? All right, Chris?
Speaker 4 (17:08):
Here we go h eight seven seven ninety nine. On Fox,
Let's start with John in California. You're on the odd
couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
What's up? John?
Speaker 7 (17:18):
So much like doing it so great?
Speaker 3 (17:20):
How are you a great bro?
Speaker 7 (17:22):
I'm doing all right?
Speaker 9 (17:23):
You know what I was thinking about? Since Lebron runs
the show pretty much anywhere he goes, he pretty much
dictates on who comes in and runs the roster. What
happened to the old player coach? I mean, Ruffle did
it everything else? He'd running the dang thing anyway. He's
got more experience than Reddick. I think he came into
the league before him, did he? Right?
Speaker 1 (17:40):
Yeah, you know what, Rob, we that's a topic maybe
we should do tomorrow because that's obviously a long topic conversation.
Speaker 3 (17:49):
I just don't think it's possible for a player coach today.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
We know it was in the sixties and seventies, but
for various reasons.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
There are a lot of reasons.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
But look, I will say this, if there was one
player I thought could do it, it'd be Lebron.
Speaker 3 (18:03):
But I just don't think it's possible in today's NBA.
Speaker 9 (18:06):
Probably probably not, But you know what, it's a good thought.
I did it in my direct league worked in.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I'm sure I bet you could do it in erect league.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
There aren't millions, hundreds of millions of dollars on the line.
Speaker 3 (18:20):
But uh no, that's a good rap. Let's do that.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
Tomorrow because there's a lot of meat on that bone.
Thanks you to talk about that, yep, Fernando in Las Vegas.
You're on the couple of Fox Sports Radio. What's up, Fernando.
Speaker 5 (18:33):
Hey fellows to the older brothers. I wish I had
and really enjoy the show, oh man, thank.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
You and the nixt running away. I cam an older
brother I got a younger one. It's twenty eight nine.
Oh oh yeah, they have twenty eight nine. You know
today's NBA. You rally from that. But y'all just start
for the Knicks.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
Hey, bring back coachown for another year, bring in some
more players and stuff like that. And if that doesn't
work out, oh yeah, why didn't? Why did Lebron James
shoot one shot in the fourth quarter in Game one?
In Game two, Athony Davis won shot one time in
the fourth quarter.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
Yeah, I think that's Darvin Ham's fault.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
Okay, I'm just playing what I mean.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Like no, seriously, like right, like no, a d go
shoot it, get be aggressive, right, I mean, that's what
I'm talking about.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
Do you think you're going Do you think you're gonna
win if you're shooting?
Speaker 4 (19:27):
Once Chris and the fourth brought up what game were
you watching or playing in you're gonna win?
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Do you think Darvin Ham directed the players now don't
let them get the ball?
Speaker 1 (19:38):
I think Rob he made a good point, though, Why
bring Darvin back for one year?
Speaker 3 (19:46):
I don't think they winning the championship, win any of the.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
Coach, But then Tyler would be out of his deal
with the Clippers and Tyler. You cannot right, we talked
about the Clippers situation right now. You can't be happy there, No, no, no,
because your players are always hurt, and so he would
probably be and you could go to the Lakers and
you don't have to move, you know what I mean? Like, so,
(20:09):
you know, because Rob, they bring in a new coach,
give him four or five year deal, get bounced in
the first or second round, and then they're gonna probably
be and Tyler's all of a sudden available, They'll probably
be talking about firing this coach.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Yep, let's squeeze one more in. Chris Kyle and Virginia Beach.
You're on the eye couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
What's up Kyle?
Speaker 7 (20:33):
What's up? Fellas?
Speaker 3 (20:34):
How are you? What's up?
Speaker 10 (20:35):
Man?
Speaker 7 (20:36):
Not doing bad? I'm just calling in a lot recently,
but I've had a lot more time on my hands.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Why is that? Everything? Okay? I know you unemployed? What's
going on? Kyles?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Are good?
Speaker 7 (20:47):
A lot better?
Speaker 3 (20:48):
Very nice? All right? Well, just we're just checking on you,
that's all. We just checked.
Speaker 7 (20:52):
Yeah. But what I will say is, you know, Darvin
Ham deserves to keep his job. Joe previously I'm a coach.
My twin brothers a coach, and now Kentucky with the
women's And you know, they always say eighty player twenty
percent coaching. And one of the things about the Lakers
is they have so much player that that eighty percent
(21:14):
like ninety five percent. So anybody they put there, if
they're not successful, it's gonna look bad on the coachs.
The Bucks are going through the same problem. They just
fired Mike Budenholders. Let's be real, Mike good. Well before that,
after that, Adrian Dailey, Right, yeah, Griffith did a great job,
and before that, Bodenholzers did a phenomenal job with them.
(21:38):
They were not jambious, and think about this. So I
grew up. I'm a Nuggets fan only because of Carlo Anthony.
I saw him in high school Whenlebron was coming up.
I'm twenty nine, so they're coming up and I was like,
I really like the way Carmelos dots the ball. You
know when they do the ESPN highlight this stuff. Right,
It's like, so he goes to Sracuse's great, he goes

Speaker 3 (34:36):
His chest out, and you know, Mary I'm.
Speaker 12 (34:39):
Gonna throw you a bone and let you know I
had nothing to do with it. I tried to tell
Rob g I said on the out a, I hope
so is that how you do.
Speaker 3 (34:49):
It, Alex? I think you should carry it over for
about three weeks. Three weeks make it hurt. You know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (34:57):
I hope you know if you're out, I'm not playing.
Speaker 3 (35:00):
Thank you, I appreciate you.
Speaker 4 (35:02):
Gotta be three and I had in Shekel City. What
why don't you tell me that the Calves in the
war playing tonight. I don't know what to look at.
Speaker 6 (35:09):
We just wanted you to think so, thank you.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
Thanks So we were just having fun listening from Sacramento.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Thank you for pointing that out. Thanks Mark.
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Rob was like, uh, and I got the Lakers minus
too gets the Nuggets.
Speaker 3 (35:26):
They're gonna lose, but give me the point.
Speaker 6 (35:29):
Rob should have just went with New England Patriots winning tonight.
Speaker 3 (35:33):
Hey, you know I'm not.
Speaker 1 (35:35):
He was like, I'm betting that the Bears take Caleb
Williams in the draft. Go with that one, go with
that one. Wow, all right, Rob, let me say this.
Let me say this about the Bucks. They're done and
I know they didn't want to lose, and they didn't
want anybody to get hurt, least of all themselves. But Rob,
(36:01):
this was good news for Doc Rivers.
Speaker 3 (36:06):
And Damian Lillard. Damian Lillard was a disappointment.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
I mean, I'm sorry, you wanted to go to a
team to win a championship. Well they put you with
what the second best player in the world, and y'all
got worse.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
They got worse.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
But Dame ain't gonna have to wear that really because
Gianni's was hurt. So they lost in the first round
they were supposed to without Yiannis. Doc, I mean, my goodness,
your predecessor was thirty and thirteen. You were seventeen and nineteen.
That's ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
That is absolutely ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (36:49):
You're brought in to save the team and you go
from thirty and thirteen to seventeen and nineteen.
Speaker 3 (36:58):
That is unbelievab.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
But you know what can't kill Doc right now because
it's two main guys were hurt one half the series,
one for the whole series.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
No doubt, he's got the he's got the Mulligan, Chris,
and there's nothing they can do, I mean, any anything
else would be ridiculous. If you were and they're not
gonna do it, you can't.
Speaker 3 (37:21):
I mean, they weren't gonna fire him anyway.
Speaker 1 (37:23):
You just there's no way they're gonna have to eat
that contract for a while.
Speaker 3 (37:28):
But you know what I mean, Rob, Like if they
if Yannis were healthy, Doc would be getting demolished right now.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
What you think it would be. I mean, people would
be calling for firing if they do it or not,
but they probably wouldn't because they're already on the hook
with all the money that they keep.
Speaker 3 (37:43):
They got three coaches they're paying us.
Speaker 4 (37:47):
And look at this, Chris, the seventy six ers cut
it through.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Five, Like I just, I mean, big leads nowadays, Rob Early.
Speaker 4 (37:55):
You know it's on a lot of the games, Rob,
a team goes out to a double digit. Yeah, that's
like Tyser's Tower. You know, if I had more time,
the double digital leg would have gone away. No no, no,
no is right, No, it is right?
Speaker 3 (38:13):
No, all right? Were the eye couple? We are out
of here.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Home run, but keep it locked because Jason's with they
bring fire on, like Rob Parkard.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Wow,
