Speaker 1 (00:17):
Hey, check this out. Let me know what y'all thinking
about this.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Bread and Joe Saint John's head coach Rick Patino said
he has zero interest in becoming the head coach of
the New York Knicks. When asked absolutely not, Patino said,
I think whoever comes in, if he doesn't get to
the finals, it's going to be deemed this unsuccessful cason.
So whoever comes in got so much pressure on them
to take this team to the next level, because that's

(00:41):
why they're doing it. Obviously it's in their minds. Nickt
fired head coach Tom Fibodeaux on Tuesday. Despite reaching the
Eastern Conference finals for the first time in twenty five years.
The Knicks hadn't reached the NBA finals since ninety nine
and haven't won a championship since nineteen seventy three. And
no reason why. Because here's the thing was and this,

(01:06):
this is what happens. This is what gets you fired.
This is what caused you to be a bus is expectations.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yep.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
You see, once the Knicks knocked off the Celtics Bread,
everybody said, oh they going to the finals.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Man, they better than the places they going to the final.
We're going to the finals.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
They started coming out with all these stats every home
game that what the New York economy made ninety one million,
they can make five hundred million dollars if they go
all the way to the NBA Final to player game seven.
So now Tom Fimodeaux had unrealistic expectations because them ask
your question, would you have fired him if he had
if he had lost to the Celtics.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Wow, you beat Detroit, but to lose to the Celtics,
would you have fired? But see, once you beat the Celtics.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
You know, I think that was already in the works
with Tom Tippadela because a lot of people were complaining
about the player men in Stubber and the minutes that
he had so from people work on top of that.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
So I think they got mad about that.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
I thought he did a great job, especially and even
in this last game.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
But expectation.

Speaker 3 (02:11):
The guy you're gonna see is Michael Malone's gonna be
the next head coach of the New York Knicks. And
so I'm saying that because he comes, he comes right
now from where he's gonna be in Denver. He lost
that job, he won a championship, He's connected right now
with the people right now who are in the front office,

(02:31):
that is the guy I think that they're gonna pick
for the next coach. And the thing about it, you
have to be able to also deal with the media.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
What we know about the difference.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
It has always been, Oh he's been and he's he's
great dealing with the media.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
So it's a job.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
So and and you were saying about Rick Patino said
there was no he had no interest.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
Don't worry. Don't worry.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
They ain't had no interest. Don't worry about it. They
ain't have no interest in him either. What ain't you
goin telling me them? No?

Speaker 1 (03:04):
So you got you got, you got Mike Malone.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Replacing Tims Bill Billbudo who you got replaced in Joe
because you still got Bouos out there. You got Frank
Bogel out there, John and Bob, Mike Brown is out there.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
Hell, they need to give uh, they need to give
Sam Cassell a chance. You know what, that's the name.
I've been hearing a lot too, guys.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Uh. Sam.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
I think Casseill it's probably his time to, you know,
get him, get him a head coaching job. But I
don't think they will give it to a first time
to the next because the expectations are too high.

Speaker 4 (03:39):
Yeah, hey, listen, remember night before last, I said, I
said Mike Malone.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah, I said Mike Brown. I also said Mike Mark Jackson.

Speaker 4 (03:47):
But obviously my candidate to be the Knicks head coach
was was Mike Malone. And I said, one of the
first thing I said, Corn read, it got to be
somebody that's able to be media savvy, that can deal
with that New York media and them New York fans
because they don't play no games. They don't play no games.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
I think that, And I talked to I talked to
Sam Pacell because he's assistant coach right now. The selfs
I would love him to get a job like that,
but in that particular market right now, they're.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
Looking for a marquee name.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
Yeah, Sam's name is the market name because he hasn't
been a head coach before. You're not coming in there
with a uh, somebody who was unproven in the New
York Knicks.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
You can't. You can't do that.

Speaker 3 (04:31):
Following you know, those animals and those I tried to
tell that to all them Nick fans over there, Shannon.
I told him, I said there before, act like you've
been there before.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
And then I said, oh, damn it, you ain't been
there before.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
Speaking all them dudes over there, all all them players
over there, It is Joe. This is what I loved about.
John Starks looked like he was damn playing in the game.
Get your hair down, get your hands up.

Speaker 2 (04:58):
Hey, hey, hey, they had a whole Knicks alumni section
over that.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Man.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
Alice used to they have and grab my mom and
started that street. Hey they brought him out. Listen, y'all
know that. But y'all do know if they would have
made the finals, boy, hey, it would have been it
would have been another level.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
It would have been. Oh yeah, I think about when
like the Nigs or the Lakers.

Speaker 2 (05:21):
Man, come on, man, they just they be they be
doing too much, but they be doing too much. Shaq
just gave his updated list on the top ten players
of all time. He got Michael Jordan at one, Kobe
at two, Lebron at three, Magic at four, Russell at five,

(05:42):
Chamberlain at six, Bird at seven, Dream at eight, Duncan
at nine, doctor j at ten. You like the list,
bred you disliked the list, or you want to move somebody.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
Around did you say, did you say bird? He had
bird himself?

Speaker 1 (06:00):
I don't think of seven.

Speaker 3 (06:01):
Yeah, he said he didn't put yourself in that, right,
I tell you what I tell you.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
How do you get away from you say? You got
you got Tim Duncan in it, don't you? You got
Jim Duncan in nine nine? Man, Well he got a
pretty good list. So you saying Shaq took himself out
of this, well he's not on it. So he got
doctor j ed ten.

Speaker 3 (06:23):
What Shaq always been saying, I'm the beast. I'm more
of a beast than anybody else. I lacked Shaq.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
Shock is probably be like that stress that Shaq had
from oh from like two thousand to two thousand and two,
two thousand and three.

Speaker 1 (06:39):
That was that was like will chamber for ten years.
You never go see that again.

Speaker 2 (06:43):
It ain't nobody because there's not gonna be somebody that big,
that agile, that can run like Shaq. People don't realize
how athletic and gifted and mobile nimble Shaq was.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
See they look at Shaq now and they see how
he moved.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
He had had his replace and you know he's probably
three f F. He said he dropped away to you
at one point four four hundred and he dropped out.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
He lost like fifty pounds. So they looking at this
shot now. But when Shaq got to the league, and
when Shaq, yeah, he was a problem.

Speaker 3 (07:13):
He was a He was a problem for everybody except
the one guy that you know, I think, to me,
my best player I always talk about I think it
should be a team Elijah one.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
And then this is why I say the Dream to
me is the best because.

Speaker 3 (07:29):
He controlled the game better than anybody on both ends
of the floor. Jordan controlled his man, but the King
could shut down that that side defensively and he could
kill you on the offensive. Be Yeah, there's nobody's been
like him since playing the game. I love all those
other names you said, Kareem, all these guys, Russell Man.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
But now that you mention that he ain't got Dream
on there?

Speaker 3 (07:56):
What out who you take gonna take my I gotta
put my glass like now, oh hell no, no, you
ain't got Kareem up there?

Speaker 1 (08:09):
The Bred? Who are you gonna take on Bred? I
love doctor J. Doctor J.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Got it started for us for us because you know
we grew up there. I love I love Doctor J.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
But Doctor J's not on my list of Kareem's now
up there.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
Kareem got to be on that list. Man.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
Doctor j made the game six it before did he did?

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Kareem?

Speaker 3 (08:36):
But Kareem, you look at his numbers and what he
did college pros.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
I mean, this man is a He's a walking encyclopedia.
Do you think number?

Speaker 3 (08:52):
And I love doctor doctor won one championship? How many
careers I made the Kareem win? But you know, doctor,
but but you gotta do this. Doc bes hughes with it.
A lot of docs bess hues with.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
The Aba aba when you when he's with the Nasty
and the Squires and all that.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
I saw.

Speaker 3 (09:10):
I saw the show that you Charles barklay on and
Charles Barkley said, you were talking about that fight that
they had when you said, Charles Barkley said, he didn't
grab Larry Bird and pull his arms down. He's a
damn life Because I was standing right behind him. Yeah,
and I tried to choke Charles Barkley out. I was like, damn,
he got here and and Doc put them three big

(09:31):
palls right in the thirst face hit him three times.
I was like, Joe, it was crazy, and I mean
it was. I have never seen anything like that in
my life, man. And it was like a melee, like
you in a bar and you just swinging and punching.
I don't care what you might hit your damn teammates.

(09:52):
That's what the nbah to lead that was. That was
when it was really sexy. And you know, if a
guy really wanted to play a nun And I understand,
said Joe, you keep talking about this money and all
that stuff, but at some point you're gonna be a
man and you're gonna swing on somebody if if and
you ain't gonna think about your purps, I.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
Know, I wouldn't I know I would.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Hey, Hey, you seen my boy name played for Cleveland Hunter.
You seen how you went at uh Mattherin when they
played him, how he knocked him down?

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah yeah he shore ain't enough? Is enough? Now? Yeah?
I think that for me.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
The two guys that get that don't get the credit
or the respect they deserve is Kareem and Tim Duncan.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
People don't realize how good Tim Duncan was. Man about it. Yeah,
they don't and they don't please people.

Speaker 3 (10:42):
Just look at Kareem and I think you came on
the later years and you know it a like by
the time he got to.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
Like eighty five, it was like it was truly magic team.
It was magic teams before that, but it was really
really magic team.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
But you go back and look at Kareem's them six
years that he stated whether he was with a real
Waukee you better tell him, man.

Speaker 3 (11:02):
That dude right there was unbelievable. And that's the and
that's the one shot we love he at O Joe
and Joe and Shannon. The sky hook ain't no, nothing
never been like that. Nobody's ever had the automatic thing
where you talked about that skylook and it was that
it was money.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
It was I don't care what you did. You knew
it was coming. That damn it.

Speaker 3 (11:25):
You couldn't stop. And he was gonna store on that
box regard and the big fella he was. He was
the reason why I was in college. I wore number
thirty three because he was my favorite player until he
l bowt me one time, Joe for no damn reason.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
I was like, damn, it didn't hurt me. Did it
hurt me, Shannon? But it hurt my damn feelings. I
could tell you that. That's all I say. Now my
favorite player. El bought me for no reason. But you
know Kareem.

Speaker 3 (11:50):
Kareem had a main street as Kurt Berson. Yeah yeah, yeah,
yeah yeah, Kurt Bisson. Yep, yep, yep, yep. That's business about.
But but Benson punched him though in Minnesota. Benson him Benson.
He came up and oh yeah, yeah, Ny, you loved

(12:12):
the back to get. Wasn't all that wolfman? Were you
were standing there, you talking with somebody. If you told
somebody they were they were coming, that you never coming,
and and and and wasn't nobody stepped between you?

Speaker 1 (12:25):
Okay, let's know.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
So you got Michael Kobe, Lebron, Magic, Russell, Will Bird,
ha Keeen, Duncan, doctor.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
J I got to go, I got I got to
read and I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
And Joe, I know you're thinking it's sexy with them
big hands, but I had the gardener's ass. So I
ain't going with I ain't going with that bullshit you
talk about right now. So I'm going with Kareem. That
sky hook, the unbelievable shot.

Speaker 1 (12:56):
He was the captain. He's the damn captain man. He's
look anybody. Until Lebron passed, he was just that.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
But you but you know what, but you know what
it is and that you know looking at it and
looking at people talk about best desks and best that
The bigs ruling that really never get the credit because
they need a small guy to get them the ball.

Speaker 3 (13:16):
Russell didn't get the credit he deserves. Will didn't get
the credit he deserves. Uh Kreem did get the credit
he deserves, none of the beat. They don't give bigs
credit like they do guards. They gave it. They gave
a little bit up to Russell.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
Because the number of rangs he won.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
Russell, yes been the one that you looked at going
you know, he was so great on the deepse event.
But Russell also was surrounded by some great scores. He
had also great scores.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
But here's the thing, though, most great players don't have
and their prime have other p players on their team.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
Winning MVP. Tom Hyson beat beat Russell lite for Rookie
of the Year. If I'm not mistake taking corn red,
I don't think he did. I think Tom him.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
Now I tell you what who beat as Joe had said,
who beat Larry bird out for the first championship And
look at me, look at me in the face. Look
sham fifty damn head up. Look me in the eyes
right now, pot me in the damn eyes.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
That's what I need you to look me down. You
the captain down.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
I was.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
I was the damn big dog. Hey, corn Bread, you
was out there getting to it?

Speaker 3 (14:29):
What what? What was going on that series? They would
double let bird. You were getting to it and they
just couldn't guard you. That was a that was a problem, Joe.
First I had Billy Pauls on me. Then they put
Moses Malone on me. Hey, they they was a bunch
of guys on me. But wasn't nobody stopping me.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
It was.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
Robert on that team. They tried Robert Reid to cover you. No,
Robert Reeves was guarding Larry Bird. Here's the thing that
you wouldn't know, Joe, Joe, Joe, I gotta go go
for you. This is a trivial question, Joe. How many points? Now,
Kevin McHale was on that team. How many points do
you think Kevin mckeal averaged during the NBA Finals versus

(15:13):
the Houston Rockets in nineteen eighty one.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
Kevin mckill I said, Colleen, Now I'm gonna say about twenty.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Four, twenty four.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
Four points, Joe, except four boys, go back and get
this at four points. You won't go let this stuff
four boys during that time, as great as he was,
it wasn't hit time yet. So you look at those
things and you're going, Okay, as great as he was,
wasn't this time.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
He because your point guard. I mean how they Archibal
was your point guard back there? Tiny it was you
Tyny McHale, Paris Bird.

Speaker 3 (16:02):
Yeah, yeah, we had we had a we have uh,
we had a stick and we had some guys with
some big balls over there during that particular time. I
loved it because I know all these Laker haters they're
gonna be, you know, uh ticksing you and all this stuff.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
Dude, want to tell you all the history of the game. Uh,
here's the thing. Heyson played the NBA All Star Game.
It was named n b A Rookie of the Year
over teammates. Who is this teammate?

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Brando feued out when people started to argue with me, oh,
Joey about you don't know what you're talking about.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
I thought he was in the.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
League before time. I thought I did that he was rookie.
Did I tell you rookie to o over what you
call him Russell? I thought Russell was. I don't know
what it was, and I know your facts, but I
think this is me thinking. Bill Russell was in the
league before Tom. Heyson came from Holy Cross. Bill Russell

(17:02):
was in the league before him.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
All I know in fifty in fifty six was he
won that championship team in fifty six. The excuse me,
that Olympic team in fifty six they won the gold
medal seven six go with him and he won?

Speaker 3 (17:19):
He won, He won, He won the gold medal in
one of those Olympic games.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
I know that that was. You want to say fifty six.
I think it might have been. I don't think. I
don't think Tom. This is just just me thinking now
because I'm I'm I don't want you to know.

Speaker 3 (17:36):
I think that Russell was already on the team before
that particular time. And I've heard some stories, especially from
Bill Russell and Joe and O Choe. Yeah, they've told
me stories about the racism that went on during that time. Man,
that makes you it may as as a black man.
He put them boys won? How them boys? One to

(18:00):
me was christ because I looked at da was talking
about how that's why him and Wark Chamberlain were the
best friends, because they couldn't go in other restaurants and
eat each other. So they were they were going to
their mama's side and Russell I remember Russell saying, look
where Chamberlain was sleeping in my damn bed because my
mom like, look what's coming over.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
We're gonna feed him. And those two guys battle.

Speaker 3 (18:23):
But they did it because of the racial climate which
was involved in the NBA and all sports in a
particular attack.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
So that's one of the things is grace.

Speaker 2 (18:34):
His daughter, his daughter told a story about here he
was the most popular athlete in Boston and somebody put
a racial lepidach and defecated in his house.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Yeah, that's true, that's true. His daughter, he didn't the store.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
His daughter told the story that they had a they
had a parade, they had a they had like a
banquet for him, and it was in Ready, Massachusetts, and
he went to the banquet and came home and somebody
had taken.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
The ship in this bed.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
Damn.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's how. That's how. That's that's a
real that's a real story right there. That's a real story.

Speaker 3 (19:11):
So I have to respect Bill Russell what he did
as a man, especially during our time.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
Black men.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
Yeah, as black man coming up during that time. Let's
look at some of those guys like Russell, Let's look
at Chamberlain, Let's look at Muhammad al Lah.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
Yeah, it was Kareem. All those guys band together, man,
and they made it.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
They made it possible for us to do what we're
doing right now on these particular shows.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
That's why I always try to pay homage to those
guys that were waiting for me.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
So I think for me is that going growing up
in the South and hear my grandfather tell stories, you
have to have an appreciation because when you like a
lot of these sayings, When you hear somebody say a
barrel of laughs, you know what that term came from.
When you walk down the street in the South, you
couldn't laugh in public. You had your stick your head
in a barrel.

Speaker 1 (20:06):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
So a black person couldn't laugh out loud, he had
to stick his head in a barrel and laughed. That's
where the term of barrel of laughs came from. So
to hear your grab my grandfather and my great grandmother,
my great grandmother was born in nineteen hundred. So to
hear that story lived through the Great Depression, she lived
until she was ninety two, and to tell the story

(20:30):
man and make you cry, I mean, just to hear
just boy them with some strong people, they don't make bread.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
Don't use that word boy. Don't use that word boys as.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
The one word. You know it shann't it.

Speaker 3 (20:43):
That's the one word as a man of color that
you weren't going here when you came up, especially us
later on. Boy.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
But you know what bread, my grandma, my grandma really
never called me my name. They call you boy, son,
come and son and boy. He talking about that.

Speaker 3 (21:00):
I'm talking about when I when I saw, when I
saw young white kids called a grown ass black man
and call him a boy that's called him by his bread,
or call him by his first maid, or calling by knock.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
Because we grew up, you had to call somebody. They
might have not been but like two or three years
only than you. You had to say mister or sir.
But to somebody that's twenty, that's old enough to be
your granddad, and they called him by hey Joe.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
But all through me, it's so funny.

Speaker 4 (21:32):
It's so funny too, Uncle, when you think about it
to cornbread, Joe, I mean, I'm not sure if all
of us and people in the chat, I don't know
if all of y'all the senior sinners yet.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
You see what word they use the most in the centers, boy,
but that was bread. We grew up in the side.
That's that's the way they talked about Joe and Breton.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
I'm a little closer. You know, how old are you, Joe?
Forty four? Okay, so we're the same. You're the same,
aid from me as I am from corn Bread. We
I grew up in You grew up in Alabama, I
mean Arkansas, and I grew up in rural, rural South Georgia.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
But that's what they said. That's that's how they address you. Yeah,
that's the whody they talk.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
Yeah, yeah cause I mean, hey, hey, Mary, cause them
boys the boy view they working today? Mary, Which one
which one Which one of you boys? Which one of
you boys can drive? Which one of you boys can
do this?

Speaker 1 (22:23):
Tell them boys? Tell that was? That was my grandmother
telling me the story. I remember, and I was in
South Georgia.

Speaker 3 (22:31):
I was in equipment Georgia, and my grandmother told me said, uh,
mister Ed which they called him mister Egg, got a
farmer and you boys, he said, tell them boys to
come up here and get these watermelons for a couple
of months.

Speaker 1 (22:45):
And see, I'm seventy year, I'm going to be seven.

Speaker 3 (22:48):
So it's a big, big difference in how I looked
at things and view things, and and the prism of
how things are now to me is it's like night and.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
Day when I think about flag white and all that stuff.
Mm hmm.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
But I remember, I remember it just like yesterday, and
that was that was you know what they used to have.
I don't know if y'all had them there, but we
used to have those.

Speaker 3 (23:12):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
They was like those jockeys and they being they be
in the people's yard.

Speaker 3 (23:19):
You know what I'm talking about, playing Come on, come
on now, old little lantern in the hand, Yeah, put
your time up.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah, or you know what, don't worry about Sharon.

Speaker 3 (23:29):
I saw one of those last year up in the mountains,
North Carolina. They were they was selling that even thing
that jockey you're talking about, You might things have gone away.
They ain't going to wait that far. They right around
the corner, right around the damn corner.

Speaker 1 (23:45):
It ain't too It ain't too far off.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
I know I'm a little younger than y'all, But I
grew up in a neighborhood called Fush Damn Pike. That's
in Little Rock, Arkansas, on the east side of town.
We called a fush Damn Pike because we had a damn,
like we should go fishing.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Now.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
Well, I had two of my little white homies, Runnie
and Johnny. They lived in the neighborhood. Every time I
would go to their house and get them, we walked
to the damn to go fishing. Their grandmother was the
racist woman in the world. They would prep me before
I come over that man, you know, my my grandma,
she's gonna be tripping. But as soon as I step
on the porch, unking corn bread and ojo, she called
me nigga from the jump, like whoig on my porch?

(24:22):
And hey, listen it, God, I can't make this up.
I can't make this up.

Speaker 3 (24:27):
Listen to the point where I used to come over there,
I stay way in the street and I hollered, I hollered,
come outside because.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
As a kid, as a kid man, I was destruct
like I never nobody never called me that. Coming up
and that I mean was relentless. Bro, She was relentless.
She used to go at me every time she's seen me. Man,
I'm telling you, yeah, So I know what.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
Y'all talking about.

Speaker 3 (24:58):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (24:59):
Did you thinking national team is looking stack the basketball team?
Ben informed that talks underway, Raptors All Stars Scottie Barnes,
the Detroit Piston center Isaiah Stewart, Spurs guards Devin vassel
Uh to join the Jamaican Growing basketball team. Twin brothers
Amen and I sure Thompson begun their passport process last week.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
They gonna still get the hell beat out of them,
gonna be y'all. First of all, y'all not gonna beat
the Americas. Y'all not gonna beat the friends team, y'all.
I don't know y'all. Hope y'all get kept here running sprint.
Y'all got basketball run.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
You're you're right.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
From that standpoint, people should the next coming isn't necessarily
that team.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
It's the French team. This is the French team.

Speaker 3 (25:53):
When they got that big, that big spree as Wimby
as seven foot five and running the way he does
and changing the game again, that's the next team that
I'd be afraid of because they got some other players
over there from France that can play the game.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
And yeah, the guy Philly Yabaselly. You know they got
four nor and they got Nicholas Betune. I mean they
got they got some good guys.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
Now it's gonna be incumber because you know Lebron's staff KD.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
They can't play forever, Bread forever. If you can't lose,
you cannot lose on Home Soiler. That that's your boy.
Right now, here's what I'll last you, Shannon and Joe
and O Joe. How many more years.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Can that man?

Speaker 2 (26:42):
Lebron James, he got a leader. I believe he can
still average over twenty for the next two years.

Speaker 4 (26:50):
If you get listen, if you get average twenty, but
if you get average twenty the next two, the he
average twenty the next three.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
Joe is Joe is he is? He putting that thing
out of retright now? Scoring wise? Man, Come on, every
every time he touched the court, he putting that.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
He putting it for them for the wa Ain't nobody
catching that bring You know that man them played twenty
two seasons.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Man at the highest level. He ain't just out there
getting eight to ten points.

Speaker 3 (27:16):
That man out there ball, So they're gonna be out
of reach because you gotta have longevity, not only longevity, but.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
You got to you got to beat him. Yeah, yeah, Luca.
But do we actually think Luca's gonna play twenty seasons?

Speaker 1 (27:30):
No?

Speaker 3 (27:31):
Hell, body gonna break that body be broken down next week, Sharon.
I hate to tell you that that body gonna be
broken down next week some one. Is he gonna play
twenty years or what?

Speaker 1 (27:45):
Or what that's now?

Speaker 3 (27:47):
I know you're a Laker fan and you're a Lebron
fan and all that stuffy.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
But but but but what what the Lakers are waiting
for right now?

Speaker 3 (27:56):
Maybe they're waiting waiting for the next Lebron's son to
come out. Maybe they gonna drave him. What's that rice
is it? What's his name?

Speaker 1 (28:03):
Coming out? Bryce?

Speaker 5 (28:04):
Is the uh?

Speaker 1 (28:05):
They wait for him?

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Le Bron want to play with him too. Now, for
he'd have to play, he would have to play twenty four. Then,
because Bryce's got to go to college, that'll be twenty
three next year. And for wait for Bryce, that'll be
twenty four if he comes out, so that'll be twenty four.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
He might have to wait to play twenty five.

Speaker 3 (28:22):
That is the most amazing stat that we look at
when we start looking at his age, his longevity, what
he's done. He's been healthy for most of his career
as much as you know, and I admire him as
a plate. But my god, I just would never even
when I got to be forty, all that stuff he's

(28:42):
doing right now, that should look dangerous to me. I
do that.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
I mean, I look at Joe right now, fled in
this three on three, and that should look anxious to
me right now, like you doing that.

Speaker 3 (28:57):
I get scared when I get scared when I'm down
the steps right now. I'm sorry, I'm curio.

Speaker 2 (29:03):
I think about this bread and Joe at age forty,
he's second team All NBA.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
I think that's the most impressive thing.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
It's the fact that he's playing twenty two seasons that's
impressive in itself, but it's just just the level.

Speaker 1 (29:17):
Yeah, do what he's putting up.

Speaker 2 (29:19):
Like night in and night out at that at that age, Man,
that's unreal. So we haven't seen anything like this, and
I don't know if you'll see it again twenty four,
eight and eight, the year twenty two. But here's the
best thing about Lebron. I think, as great as he
is offensively and all these other things, it's his mental
approach to the game. Yeah, I have never seen anybody.

Speaker 3 (29:42):
And when I played, I knew some of my plays,
but Lebron knows where everybody should be. If you talk
Lebron after a game, he has a photo genic memory
where he picks and he can tell you about play
after play and this happened, and that happened. Then I
got a file of you. I have never seen anybody

(30:02):
like this man. It is just like, it's unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (30:05):
Hey.

Speaker 2 (30:06):
Another thing that I think that helps him is that, uh,
you know, the game has changed so much fellas that
you know, it's not necessarily traditional two bids. Hell, he
probably the second biggest guy on the court now, yeah,
I mean, so he's able to kind of guard some
of these big guys and kind of just kind of
sit in the weeds and kind of save his energy
for offense. As opposed to early in his career. You know,

(30:27):
it was it was a look he had to carry
the load. Yeah, he had to carry he had to
carry the load. I mean he had to carry the load.
And so now and now they taking him off the ball.
They put the ball in Luca's hand, let aar have
the ball. So now he's off the ball bread he's
in that dunker spot. Now he could just like, hey, Luca,
y'all havedle that. Hey, Hey, are y'all hale that. I'll
just go, hey, do what I do?

Speaker 3 (30:46):
Oh Gus, And you know, well, I love to see
him play. Now is I see him playing vulleyball. He's
just all down there at two hundred and fifty, two
hundred and sixty pounds. He just runned over and dude,
right there. The thing about I don't think and Joe,
here's the thing. They don't let you take no charges
no more, you take the charge. And yet and and

(31:08):
they're doing walk right up, rocking your chest. So I'm
just like, I don't know how you stop a guy
like that and just made in his career as strong
as he is.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
But when you think about it, he's he's one of
probably what only four or five guys who post up.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Now, yeah, a lot of guys. Broun posts up a lot,
you know, he posts up.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
He plays in the mid post, he plays on the
low block, so a lot of that works into his
favorite because he's always gonna have a mismatch.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
It no matter who guard him. You know what I mean? Yeah, Yeah,
you're right.

Speaker 3 (31:39):
Here's here's the thing you should say, shit, you should
say and this would be an argument, I know it will.
Lebron James is the greatest athlete ever that we've seen
the greatest.

Speaker 1 (31:53):
Huh better than in time going time can hit? Both
could do that.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
Lebron James was playing football like a like like a
woy that one time. If he if he had just
side the play. Yeah, and and how I head coordination.
He is the greatest athlete. And longevity. How long did
both play? How long did both play?

Speaker 1 (32:19):
Now? Looking play long? Both both both eighty five? He
was No. On overall draft, picking eighty five to Tampa
Uh hughkover House.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
He told him, if you draft me, I'm not coming
because he had saw what happened with uh with everybody
else that it had gone there and they did.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
They took him anyway, and he said, I'm going to
play baseball. But both played.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
Let's see Blue played eighty nine, Blow played eighty eight,
eighty nine.

Speaker 5 (32:47):
Ninety longevity, Oh chip o cho oh choe? The longevity.
You tell me an athlete who has done that.

Speaker 1 (32:59):
Just give me one.

Speaker 3 (33:00):
Give me one athlete that we can think of has
done that at that high level for that many years
without falling up. Even the great Michael Jordan's at the end,
we saw him calla beat. You wasn't he was Mike,
But he wasn't Mike though. No more so you look
at you look at Lebron. People are still right now.
There are a lot of players like Jason Tatum right

(33:21):
now they respect the hell out of him. And that
to me irks me because I don't like to see guys,
you know, respecting another guys.

Speaker 1 (33:29):
But from he's the He's the greatest athlete that we
have known.

Speaker 3 (33:37):
Who give me one, Give me one, Shannon, people who
like all them people Brady, tom Brady, tom Brady couldn't.
Tom Brady couldn't run fastest me right now, you know,
And I'm come on, tom Brady had right off? What
else could Tom Brady do? Drink alcohol?

Speaker 1 (33:56):
What what else do you do? Come on? Give me
a rais athlete of the lawn.

Speaker 3 (34:01):
Jem not not with that longevity, No, nobody the greatest
we have seen during that particular tame.

Speaker 1 (34:09):
And you can go back.

Speaker 3 (34:10):
I know a lot of your callers or your your people,
text you, you tell me the person you wanted to
talk about. Tell me anybody the Olympics, anybody who has
been a dude with this fast. Since he's fast, he's strong,
he's quick, he's smart.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
I mean, give me somebody Jeenant. Nah, not at that level.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
A new report Kevin Durant camp views San Antonio Spurs
as a preferred landing spot, and there's been reports of
mutual interests since the trade deadline. A trade package for
KD would most likely include Devin Vassel, Harrison Barnes, and
the number fourteen overall pick. Another report from the Athletics
says the Suns have started to lower their asking price since.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
The conclusion of the season.

Speaker 2 (34:56):
Houston has filled several calls from Phoenix who have gradually
lord the asking price for Durant. Remember he's about to
be thirty seven, thirty seven, and yeah, the injury history,
you have to factor that in, you just do.

Speaker 1 (35:15):
I understand.

Speaker 2 (35:16):
KD is great, He's been great since he sept those sides.
I think he's aside seventeen or eighteen in the NBA.
But he is about to be thirty seven, and he
does have an injury history.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
I think I think he would be go ahead, y'all.

Speaker 2 (35:31):
I think if you put him with if you put
him like with Houston, like on a team to worry,
he don't have to do so much dirty work.

Speaker 1 (35:38):
I feel like with Phoenix he had to do a
lot of dirty work.

Speaker 2 (35:41):
Meaning defensively and offensively carried him, which was a lot.

Speaker 1 (35:45):
You put him with some of these young these young
studs and some of.

Speaker 3 (35:48):
These dudes who are you know, blue collar workers, to
where he don't have to work as hard and he
can just kind of score the basketball, you know what
I mean. I think, Yeah, I think his injury history
are kind of you know, it'll kind of fade. I
think I think he'll fit seamlessly with a lot of
these teams because he's a natural.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
He's just a natural scoring shooter.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
And if you could, if you could play off him
or get him in positions to where he's playing off
a lot of these other guys who are who are
demanding double teams.

Speaker 1 (36:16):
Man, he's gonna shot, y'all.

Speaker 2 (36:17):
See how they boy look in the USA basketball Man
he getting end of the shots for twelve shots a game,
but he's.

Speaker 3 (36:23):
So efficient, eight for eleven, nine for twelve and he
gonna put up the numbers. He just got to get
the looks he is. He's perfect. He would be perfect
for san Antonio playing with that the Devon castle and
the thing that he and that I love about him.
He doesn't need the ball right Most guys in the

(36:47):
NBA right now need the ball. Lebron needs the ball
to be effective. That's why him and Luke. I don't
know how that's going. Ever, you know the marriage is
gonna work because Lebron needs the ball to be effective
now these days, well we know about kd. If Kat
gets to a spot, you getting basketball, bucket, that's all.
He ain't got the drill, h He ain't got to
do nothing else, bucket. So I would love to see

(37:09):
if he went, If he got in and went to
San Antonio, I think it'd be a perfect match with
a young veteran, with a guy like him, because here's
a guy that Joe we know, the only guy we know,
one of the few guys we know.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
There's been the finals in VP with whether a team.
He's done it twice and this and this. He did
it with Steps team.

Speaker 3 (37:30):
This was supposed to be Step team, but he was
a damn man, that team, and if if he hadn't
been kicked out of that, I don't know, we still
be talking about Donaster.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
Come on, Joe, stop stop stopping and listen. Listen.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
I agree because I had I had a chance to
play against you know, that that Warriors team, what Katie
was on it.

Speaker 3 (37:51):
When I was in Utah. We played him in the
second round, and man, it's a cheak hole.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
Man. You isn't nothing you can do with that. There's
nothing you can do with that.

Speaker 3 (38:00):
Yeah, I mean, I mean if it had not been
for if that had been or maybe the other gentleman
who got him out of out of Golden State.

Speaker 1 (38:10):
Everybody that you like so much, Yeah, yeah, I like
so much. You got I like so much. But that's
part of what, you know, what seemed to and I've
read some articles on this which seemed.

Speaker 3 (38:21):
To have alienated him from what went on with him
at Draymond Green's the reason why he sighed the league.

Speaker 2 (38:27):
Yeah, Blitcher report had a wild trade idea to send
Ja Moran to Miami. The Heat will receive Jah The
Grizzlies will receive Andrew Wiggins, Miko himI Hockkas twenty twenty
nine first round pick and a twenty thirty one pick swap.
Should the Heat try and get job this offseason?

Speaker 4 (38:48):
What I already told you what was gonna happen. Nobody
want to listen to me. Now, all of a sudden,
small stuff like this comes out and it's coming from somewhere.
But when I told you ahead of time that Jannis
and Jahn Moran was coming to the Heat, everybody calling
me crazy.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
But again crazy I told you first.

Speaker 3 (39:06):
I told, Oh Joe, I'll say this, you better not
have no guns down there. With John Wick coming down there,
I know that. I listen on firearms down there, and
I know that listen John, John gonna be in good
hands here, man.

Speaker 1 (39:20):
He's gonna be a good man. We're gonna be you.
We got the right people, We got the right people
around him. He's gonna be alright.

Speaker 2 (39:26):
Hey, hey, hey, y'all know, boy, you gotta have some
discipline playing down there in Miami.

Speaker 4 (39:29):
Now, Oh yeah, he good, he good, He's gonna he
gonna be with me, He's gonna lord, hey, who he
gonna be with with me?

Speaker 1 (39:37):
You just heard the key words, right, you see a discipline? Right?

Speaker 4 (39:40):
Who better than to hang with than somebody who don't
go nowhere at all. All I do is to play
video games. So why do you want to hang out
with you?

Speaker 1 (39:49):
The discipline? What are you talking about? I just that's
what we're talking about. Stay tuned and that there. I
think I like steak, You like peaceful while we hanging out.

Speaker 4 (39:58):
That well, listen, you hang it out with me because
I needed you focus while you're here at the crib.

Speaker 1 (40:05):
I can't respond. I'm responsible for you, responsible for Okay,
he good. You're gonna want to, He's gonna want to.
I can't.

Speaker 4 (40:15):
Miami, I'm gonna take it. Listen, Hey, hey, corn bread,
I'm gonna take corn bread.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
You've been to Tussies. No, I'm not been nothing before.
Come on, I'm on down here to Mia. I'm gonna
take the toties. I'm gonna take job to tout. John.
Wanna know, Miami got offer. I'm gonna make sure wherever
he go, I'm there. They ain't what we're day when
that ain't what we need, Old Joe, we don't need
to be in tusted Old Joe. He sure don't this topic.
What we're going to eat? Seafood rights? Tell you tell

(40:43):
me what what's that what's that? What's that? Eat?

Speaker 3 (40:45):
That?

Speaker 1 (40:45):
That spot? They got that thousand dollars steak? Magic City?
Poppy steak Stoppy, we go to Poppy? What's the other way?
Magic City? There? You hell?

Speaker 2 (40:54):
Do Joe know about that? If you if you spent
more than a day of Atlanta, you know about that place?

Speaker 1 (41:07):
And listen what listen? Hey? I got him?

Speaker 2 (41:11):
I got After signing a two year, twenty million dollars
extension in February, Lonzo Ball expected to be made available
and trade talks by the bull Balls ten million dollars
annual salary, which includes a team option for twenty six
twenty seven, is easily digestible for contending teams in need
of a guard depth. Could we see Lonzo and Mellow
on the same team? I know their dad has always

(41:33):
envisioned his boys playing together. Could just be the opportunity
that they play together?

Speaker 1 (41:40):
Bred?

Speaker 3 (41:41):
You know? No, I'll ask you another question, since you
read all this right now, The word is that the
Lakers right now are interested interest for zenus.

Speaker 1 (41:52):
How do you feel? What you tell me? What was
said me? That ain't no big? They need a big?
Well he's big, nah, now he's slim.

Speaker 3 (42:03):
He big and well he ain't no big He won't
to play like a guard. You on him or you
on Alex Lenn What do you want?

Speaker 1 (42:10):
I think that.

Speaker 3 (42:15):
Alex Lenn within Boston too, he couldn't Temple too. Oh
my god, you know I think that that. I think
that this year is going to be a bunch of trades.
I'm like, Oho, this is gonna be a bunch of
things going on. The only thing I'd be concerned about
is we talked about the discipline. Pat Rowley runs a

(42:39):
really tight shit. Really can he fit into that Heat
culture because he culture has always been sacrificed.

Speaker 1 (42:49):
For the team, the better of the team.

Speaker 3 (42:53):
I'm not sure. And I'm seeing John Murray. He's as
talented as anybody in the slate? Oh uh?

Speaker 2 (43:00):
Is he?

Speaker 3 (43:01):
Can he put himself in that system playing under Pat
Rally and the Heat organization?

Speaker 1 (43:08):
That to me, I don't see that app.

Speaker 4 (43:11):
Brad is gonna have bread out of I don't talk
to him. Read I done shot down with him, you know,
I don't talked to y'all. And and he has break
up and on what he needs to do to come here?
You know, you know, you only get so many, You
only get so many. You only get so many chances.
Young boy ready for the mood though, young boy ready,
he's ready for Miami. Miami's ready to embrace him here
in a three five and day kund of in Liberty City.

(43:32):
I'm telling you, y'all, don't be hissing me when I
tell you first. I told you a month ago. I
told you he was coming here. Y'all, y'all laughed at me,
and all of a sudden, now you hear reports about

Speaker 2 (45:18):
Marco Polo TV said s g A not p g A.
Lou dort on the wrong door check not in the game.
Halle in a helly the coach of was a racer,

said Phillips. Halle is gone have to play some defense
this series. Well, he keep game with the shots and
playing the defense comments, should O k se have started

(45:59):
the fourth with s G No, because that's not what
they normally do, But considering they normally start Hattenstein and
not the other guy. But hey, Pacer went on the
run before he checked in around a seven minute mark.
Felt like the momentum had already shifted by being what
you think guys should think.

Speaker 3 (46:15):
I think the momentum had has shifted, and you might
you know, a lot of times you want to bring
a guy in as a closer. I think they had
a window of opportunity to get that thing up to
eighteen nineteen twenty points, and without him being in the game,
they struggled with that. Everybody else being in the ten

(46:36):
hundred was one that disappeared in the gang.

Speaker 1 (46:39):
Yeah, you gave him Blake.

Speaker 3 (46:41):
Those stats and he's supposed to be the other dude.
He's in the commercial with you with SGA, he's in
that phone commercial, but he disappeared.

Speaker 1 (46:52):
In that game. I think, Hey, I'm gonna tell y'all
some it.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
I think it may have been a little too fast
to check out there, meaning if he the biggest, if
he the biggest guy on the floor and he got
the hedge on the screens or being a little soft catch,
like they kind of got him in a huckle buck
every trip down the court, and it just wasn't it
just wasn't a good look.

Speaker 1 (47:12):
Man.

Speaker 2 (47:12):
He just seems so frail under the goal when he
did get chances to kind of score and all that.

Speaker 3 (47:18):
Like, man, you got to keep that man on at
the four. You're gonna play him at the five. Man,
keep that man at the four. Think about it, though,
they said, start that game. That's why he brought That's
why he had Hollerberg. That's why you bought him Artinstein.
That's why you bought Artinstein or that the energy guy
to protect him. And when you made him a starter,

(47:40):
which you did, you took away one of your biggest
strets basketball wise.

Speaker 2 (47:48):
Shaye played forty minutes tonight. So if you leave think
about it now, you're gonna play in forty five minutes. Oh,
I ain't mad at the forty minutes. They've been off
for a whole week, ten days.

Speaker 1 (48:01):
Yeah, but that's the thing.

Speaker 2 (48:03):
Though, They saying start him at the start of the
at the start of the fourth. Well, look, there's a
lot of sense second guessing. I don't know, because normally,
you know your best player, they normally get they play
out the third and then well, he probably came out.
I don't know, he might have played the entire third.
I was trying to watch and try to watch a

(48:24):
whole lot of other things. But he normally gets his break.
He normally gets a four minute break, five minute break
the start of the fourth. Yeah, because normally at that
point in time, he's probably played somewhere between thirty and
thirty three minutes. Gentlemen, let me just say this, this
is the NBA Championship. I don't give a damn what

(48:46):
you do. You change that if you want to win,
you do what you need to do.

Speaker 3 (48:52):
And you talk about changing change hardness, stun Then they
changed the best thing in the NBA.

Speaker 1 (49:00):
Yep. That that what strong will give me him a couple.

Speaker 3 (49:03):
Of more minutes, Especially if you were struggling offensively during
that particular time, you could see the leads start to dwindle.
You could see you could see the brown stuff start
to come down some of them people's legs in that building.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
That's what you could see.

Speaker 2 (49:18):
Keens Journey said that the pacis win game two. Okay,
see will get swept a damn Smith, Carbred, calm down.
But it's one game. Saying praises are more physical than
okay see is crazy. Okay see he didn't shoot or
rebound well tonight, okay see in five? Well a dab
then ask you this, why didn't they shoot?

Speaker 1 (49:40):
Well? Why didn't they rebound? Well?

Speaker 2 (49:43):
Were playing themselves? Now forwards, the gentleman to said, the
name is a daft he he a damn Smith. He's
one of our he's one of our loyalists.

Speaker 1 (49:52):
Oh, I don't think I've ever seen him play in
the n B A I'll recall, you know.

Speaker 3 (49:59):
Maybe he no more than I do about maybe a
dam a dam of a dude, whatever it is, I
don't know. Well, I'm just telling you when you play
the game at a high level and now the state, Yes,
it is a first game. Haven't we been saying that
the same thing about the Pacers and these last couple
of series. It's the first game. It's the first game,

(50:20):
and they won first game. They keep advancing, and that
is not that's not a good sign for a young
team that's been this one thing that you do, Joe
and this swell up. You know what it is when
you you you go in and you fight the bullet,
the strongest man out there. You go punch him in
the punch him in the notes, and everybody else are

(50:40):
looking around going, damn, I mean we're something. Now what
the Pacers did? They punched these dudes in the notes?
They're the best team in the NBA and brack. Now
they got punished in the notes? How will they respond?
Dally uh fans New Jersey. He said, is Halle playoff

(51:01):
run better than Reggie? I guess he's talking about Reggie
who regiment?

Speaker 2 (51:07):
Yeah, Reggie Miller. Regie Miller, Yeah, I don't know him. Yeah,
he said, they both have five those playoffs will take
the lead. They both have five shots now to either
tie the game or take the lead in the ball

(51:27):
game for the Pacers.

Speaker 1 (51:29):
Both have five. Halle has five. Uh and and uh Reggie.
Reggie has five?

Speaker 3 (51:35):
Well there for like three years. Yeah, yeah, but look
at that. Look at the game you played. We had
the game that he had all them assists in low turnovers.
Reggie l ain't never do that. No, Reggie Miller is
a great player. But Holly Burton is taking this thing
to another level. I could think the only guy I
can think who's played like that during that particular time.

(51:56):
That was that was Steph like to watch him do that.
That was Steph curR like to see him that. You
know that he's every game, not every not every single game.
The same guy can't beat me. Ah, I saw a game.
I saw this hard knocks thing that you were in,
that all this stuff going on, and and you can't

(52:16):
beat me on the same damn play every time.

Speaker 1 (52:19):
Damn somebody else gonna beat me. I don't get Joe.

Speaker 3 (52:22):
I'm telling you right now, somebody else beating me. You
ain't getting the same guy, ain't getting the ball shooting
at again.

Speaker 1 (52:27):
That ain't gonna out.

Speaker 2 (52:29):
Hey man, confidence DMV said. Hallie Burton is the clutches
player in playoff history.

Speaker 1 (52:38):
No, that's like, get crazy enough. He up there.

Speaker 2 (52:42):
I ain't gonna say he the clutches in playoff history,
but he is definitely up there considering what he's done
and in all these series that they've played in, like
he has been insane down the stretch.

Speaker 1 (52:52):
I'm talking about like ball.

Speaker 2 (52:54):
You know, well, you know Robert Ry got a couple
of big shots in playoff history that up championship.

Speaker 1 (53:01):
So but hall what Halla Burner is doing. We haven't
seen it in at least two decades.

Speaker 2 (53:06):
Especially in what and I mean this playoff run, Like
I said, Lebron in twenty seventeen when he hit the
one and uh the shot to beat Indiana, hit the three,
he hit another, hit another shot off the glass to
beat Toronto, where he had like what eight forty point
games That might have been twenty eighteen take them back,
but he he had eight forty point games in that

(53:28):
playoff run.

Speaker 3 (53:29):
And we and we got and we forgot about Magic
Johnson as much as I want to throw up.

Speaker 1 (53:35):
Now, we forget what you what chere you talking about?

Speaker 2 (53:38):
You talk about that the baby sky hookn hit on y'allup,
But you weren't there there, You weren't there.

Speaker 1 (53:43):
That was the only sound. Wasn't there. I was traded,
but still just that I gotta give him credit. He
although I hate him, I gotta give him credit.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
You know, you gotta give that game that he played
against the seventy six work played fifteen.

Speaker 1 (53:58):
And seven in nineteen eighty feet.

Speaker 3 (54:00):
I mean, we you got, but also was around when
he was when he was Tragic Johns, when he drove
you know he did yeah too, So I know the
man personally, not like that.

Speaker 1 (54:12):
I know it personally.

Speaker 2 (54:14):
Hey, but you know what, people forget that game that
Magic had thirty thirty forty two fifteen and seven, Jamal
Willis had thirty five.
