Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hope you had a great weekend, everybody, boy, there was
a lot of sports to recap. We'll try to do
our best over the next three hours. Best and worst
of the weekend. You get an opportunity what you saw
that you liked, you didn't like. Eight seven seven three

eight pole question stat of the Day. All of that forthcoming.
We'll talk some basketball a little bit later on Jim Jackson,
former NBA player now analyst. We'll talk about the Warriors
closing out the Rockets and the Rockets got a bright future.
The Nuggets close out the Clippers. More on that in
the moment I told you be aware of the Pacers.
(01:08):
Feels like a foregone conclusion. The Cabs as great as
they were during the regular season, this is an interesting
Pacer team and they are going to continue to bring
the offensive noise. Tonight, Nix at the Celtics and the
Nuggets at the Thunder. The oddsmakers Vegas isn't expecting close games.
I think both teams, Nicks and the Nuggets are nine
(01:29):
to nine and a half point underdogs. Greg Popovich, this
was about fifteen minutes after we left the show on Friday.
Decided to step down as this Spurs head coach will
move into the front office.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Scotti.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Scheffler, in dramatic fashion, wins the Byron Nelson dramatic just
because he dominated and the Jets over the Blues in
two overtimes in Game seven. Speaking of Game sevens, speaking
of hockey, Doc Emrick, I believe on the show tomorrow.
Been a while since we talked to Doc, and uh,
hope retirement is treating him well. We'll see if we
(02:04):
can get that voice. You know, I don't know if
he's doing play by play around the house. I don't
know what play by play guys do when there's no
games to call. Todd did bring up something interesting? Yeah,
breaking news, breaking news.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Yes, I'm a shot. Yes.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
So I come in today and Todd goes, what do
you like best? Down this stretch? They come goal, he shoots,
he scores, touchdown, eight, nine, ten, it's a knockout. So
when you think about all of these things that we
say in sports, like what's the best one? So Todd,
(02:42):
I'll let you tell me which one you think is
the best? You know, a home run, it could be,
it might be, it could be, it is, it's gone.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
I think, especially Recncy bias of how exciting the Stanley
Cup playoffs have been, I'm going to go with the
he shoots his goness. I kind of like that over
all the other ones.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Okay, I still like down the stretch they come because
we don't hear it very often, usually three times a year,
and there is something about that if you've ever been
to those races, to be in the moment, there that excitement.
Now you don't hear down the stretch like we do
on TV. Sovereignty ends up winning the Kentucky Derby and
(03:19):
muddy conditions there. Journalism came in second. I'm glad journalism
at least placed in there. I was worried about journalism
because in my business, journalism is not going to be
in the top three, not going to win placer show.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Yes, Todd, where would.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
Riders up and gentlemen, start your engines be on that
list wall?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
There's something exciting is about that start your Engines? I
would put up there.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
I don't know about riders, but down the stretch, you
know when you hear that, it's just it's something magical,
and it feels like just about everybody thinks their horse
has a chance when down the stretch they come.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Well.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I would probably opt for that, just based off recency
bias as well. Best and worst of the weekend. We'll
get to your phone calls coming up. A gift that
keeps on giving is James Harden. And you know, when
you look at the regular season, regular season James Harden,
I think twenty two points eight assist. We like the Clippers.
People thought, oh you got a healthy Kawhi Leonard. Okay,
(04:20):
they can do some damage. They can knock off Denver,
they could give Oklahoma City a real tussle, but last
night they were blown. It was a no show. They
were blown out or over the week kind of should say,
and then you have, you know what happened. So the
Nuggets end up winning, Golden State ends up winning. Now
(04:40):
you got some pretty interesting matchups, but we tend to
focus on the team that just lost. So with what
happened with the Clippers and once again James Harden in
a game seven is a no show. Here is his
head coach, Ty Lou on the Clippers losing.
Speaker 5 (04:56):
You know, it's tough loss, and I said, not playing
on best game in a situation like this, and you know,
a lot of emotions, and so just tell the guys
bring it in, you know, one last hug and you
know we'll we'll talk tomorrow. But you know, they came
out I thought we came out with a with a
decent mindset. They went to that zone and kind of
made a stacking offensively because the way we were attacking them,
(05:18):
and then I thought, you know, when they went to
that zone, it's kind of slowed us down offensively, and
then defensively didn't we didn't really you know, get into them,
get closer to the guys and have that pressure, and
so they were able to pick us apart.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Okay, and this isn't all on James Harden, but there
is a pattern here. It is last thirteen elimination games,
James Harden's teams are two and eleven, and the numbers
are even worse after that. By the way, he was
a no show after their losses. He didn't meet with
the media. But James now, he did have twenty six
(05:51):
twenty eight points I think game six, So I thought, okay,
maybe this is going to be different for him. Thirteen
elimination games, shot thirty nine percent from the floor. Team
is two and eleven. Uh, he's averaged fourteen points on
thirty eight percent shooting. And then you look at some
(06:12):
of the other numbers. Here Steph Curry fourteen career elimination games,
he has scored I think one time under twenty points
once in sixteen career elimination games. Kevin Durant under twenty points.
Lebron James twenty nine career elimination games has never been
held under twenty points. Meanwhile, Hardin has scored less than
(06:35):
twenty points in twelve of twenty six career elimination games,
including seven of his last thirteen.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Stell of a day stand of a day, stead of
a day, scant outa day. This is the Stele.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Of the Day, brought to you by Benini America. Even
more in fact and embarrassing, James Harden's last three game sevens.
He scored seven points, he scored nine points, he scored
twenty two points. He went two for eight, he went
three for eleven that was in a loss to Boston
(07:14):
and five of seventeen in a lost to Milwaukee back
in twenty twenty one. I can't have one of my
best scores, one of the great scorers in the history
of the league, get eight shots. Now, he did have
double digit assist okay, but I want him to score.
I need him to score. I need him to shoot.
I mean, I'd rather that he was two for eighteen
(07:36):
than two for eight. I gotta have him getting shots up.
But once again he no showed the Clippers bow out
dramatic fashion. And you know, we're left to wonder, how
many more years, how many more postseasons will you get
with Kawhi Leonard where he's healthy and playing well, and
(07:56):
then you got Harden who had a good regular season,
but trying to match them up in the postseason and
get maybe some Magic here and you start to look
and you go, Okay, where do you kind of fit
in here? It looks like the Rockets are going to
be here to stay now. They might add I know
we've talked about Kevin Durant, but you know, if I'm them,
(08:17):
I do what Oklahoma City did, Stay the course, keep
your nucleus. I don't want to bring in a thirty five,
thirty six year old Kevin Durant. I'm not trying to
catch Magic in one year. I'm going to try to
do this, you know, make this sustainable, Make this just
like Okasee and okayc is going to be here for
a while. Now you have to look and go. If
(08:38):
you're the Clippers, where are we, We're kind of in
the middle. You know, Denver's got in depth, they got
bench is really contributed. You still got Joker playing at
a high level for a few more years. Can Jamal
Murray stay healthy? You know, so that could be sustainable
for a few more years to be a contender there,
Golden State. I mean, you're kind of looking at the
(09:01):
last go round. It feels like or at least maybe
one more go round. What about the Lakers with Lebron
You know, you start to look at where you are
in your division, in your conference, and that's what I
start to wonder about the Clippers. They're kind of a
no man's land good team, potentially a really good team.
(09:21):
The problem is is age, injuries, and you're always going
to have James Harden not showing.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Up in big games.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
But now we sometimes look at these teams as they
exit and go, okay, what is the future here? As
I said with Detroit, I think they got a bright future.
Don't go crazy, And I do think depth is really
the important thing to keep an eye on. In the playoffs,
Denver showed depth. You gotta have more than six seven guys.
(09:51):
OKC has depth, Cleveland has depth. Indiana has depth. That's
sort of the new thing. I don't need three stars,
I need two stars and depth. Celtics they got a
lot of depth. They got two big stars, a lot
of depth. That's what I would be concentrating on if
I'm trying to build my team or continue to build
my team.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Depth.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Don't go out there and get a big ticket item.
If you have a young nucleus and you're sold on them,
let them grow together. Hopefully you get a star or
two I mean, OKC has one star, he's going to
be the MVP, but you have a couple other guys
who are at least in the conversation of being a star.
And that's really important. But Boston, Boston is so deep.
(10:35):
Cleveland deep, Indiana deep, just feels like that's the new
wave with luxury taxes, the apron as they like to
call that. So just some things to keep an eye
on in the off season with these teams. Speaking of
Denver Russell Westbrook Junior, the third, this might be as
honest of an answer as you're going to get from
(10:57):
an athlete who is assessing his talent.
Speaker 6 (11:01):
You know, my.
Speaker 7 (11:01):
Ability to be able to be a force of nature
on the floor is what I pride myself phone, So
whatever that looks like, it may be a turnover, it
may be a misshot, but it may be a steal,
maybe a dunk, maybe a mystery, maybe.
Speaker 8 (11:16):
A may three.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It's gonna be all of that.
Speaker 9 (11:18):
It's gonna be everything.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
So you just take it, take it.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
But how it comes and whatever happens, you go with it.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Okay, he's gonna help somebody win. I don't know if
it's his team or your team, but he's gonna help. Uh,
but he's you know, he gives you that jolt of
energy coming off the bench. And this used to be
so important. You know, we came up with sixth Man
of the Year that award John Habilcheck. I think they
(11:44):
invented the award for him with the Celtics. You come
off the bench and you give that blast of energy.
Kevin McHale was a sixth man. Yet guys man who genobily.
They came in and they gave you that boost. That's
why I'd love to see Austin Reeves be that sixth
man for the Lakers. You come in and all of
a sudden, you're better than everybody else in that second
(12:04):
unit for the other team, and you're able to put
up some offense. Russell Westbrook brings you energy and he
had to accept coming off the bench as well. But
he's fun. He's fun to watch. Buddy Healed went off
last night. He was nine of eleven from three point range.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
And that's one of.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Those where if you're Houston and you go we're still
trailing and Steph Curry hasn't done much, you know you're
in trouble because Buddy Healed went off and then Steph
had like.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Fourteen points in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
But that was Golden State showing Houston, hey, nice, try
get experience and then try it again next year. That
was the feeling I got with Houston. Thought they were
going to be a team to contend with this year.
Maybe not a contender, but to contend with. And that
proved to be true. And I thought that this was
(12:58):
a fact finding mission, just like with you go into
the postseason, let's kind of figure out what do you need.
And you saw a team, you saw a coach, they
knew what they were doing in that game. It was
just experience. Now you do have Steph. You didn't think
Buddy Heal was going to go off. But with Golden State,
it's fun, fun to see them out there, you know,
(13:20):
in the latter stages of careers. Seaton, what's poll question today?
Speaker 10 (13:24):
For the first hour, it feels like we're kind of
kicking one around about James Harden's legacy. Maybe maybe we're
going to stumble onto one of those.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
But can you think of a first ballance Hall of
Famer who is this flawed?
Speaker 11 (13:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (13:41):
See, well right, While also he's an absolute Hall of Famer,
he's one of the greatest scoring players of all time,
probably right. He's revolutionized the game in how you draw fouls,
how you do certain things. He's had a massive impact
on the game, will maybe not always getting the credit
for that, and then unfortunately doesn't have the success to
(14:03):
show for it other than for the most part, extremely
great play.
Speaker 11 (14:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
I don't know if there's another NBA comp for this
where that guy was so great then he didn't show
up in the postseason. And he's done this with all
the teams he's been with. It's not just the Clippers.
But to have the highest of highs where you're averaging
thirty five a game, you change the game at least
with one move that you make. But you kind of
(14:32):
look at him, you go, yeah, but yeah pulling James.
Speaker 12 (14:36):
Harden led the league in scoring three years in a row.
He's led the league and assist two times. Really, the
only modern day comp might be Russell Westbrook. Russell led
the league in scoring twice, He's led the league and
assist three times. And Russell had the bonus of he
had four different seasons where he averaged ten or more rebounds.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Is nuts. Yeah, but it's weird.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I never look at Russell Westbrook as that's the guy
I gotta stop. Like, I was always curious about him.
You know, he wasn't a good shooter. He scored. But Harden,
I think you look at and you go, nobody can
stop him. Like when he gets on a run, nobody's
gonna stop him. Russ didn't shoot well enough. Where you go, man,
(15:17):
you got to stop that. Now his jumper looks pretty good.
He hit a couple of big shots, a couple of threes,
and I go that the form looks really good. Now
I know he's hit the side of the backboard and done.
You know he'll miss him when he misses, like, he'll
miss really bad.
Speaker 13 (15:32):
But I don't.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
I think I expect Harden to win more, to be
to be the guy in these big moments. I think
with Russ, I just thought that, Okay, he's still that curiosity.
He's going to give you a triple double, but he's
also gonna help the other team. I never felt that
way with Harden until you look at these game sevens,
you look at his postseasons. I mean, I don't know
(15:59):
if there's another comp here, Marvin, you got one, anybody
who comes to mind.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
It's crazy because I don't in the Game sevens is
really what separates him from other guys where that's a
glaring omission because he's had so many no shows in
big time Game sevens. He was a part of that
Game seven where the Rockets missed twenty seven straight down
three pointers. Yeah, they almost took out the seventy three
one Warriors.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
You know, all right, we'll get to some phone calls,
we'll settle on a pull question. H eight seven seven
three DP show just getting started, and we'll be back
after this on the Dan Patrick Show.

(18:02):
Get to your phone calls. Coming up, best and worst
of the weekend. What you saw that you liked you
didn't like. I didn't get to watch the game, but
I watched the highlights. The Jets against the Blues in
two overtimes, and the Blues are up. I think they
led three games to one. They were up three to
one with two minutes to go, then all of a
(18:23):
sudden goal, and then with about three seconds to go,
another goal, and it goes into overtime, a second overtime
and Winnipeg beats the Blues in Game seven. I might
be off on that, up three games to one, but
the Jets. That's what we love about hockey. Of all
the sports, when you think about regular season and you
(18:43):
think about postseason, even if you're not a hockey fan, postseason,
hockey is better than all the other sports as far
as excitement goes. I know, we have the Super Bowl,
you know, a World Series, so obviously NBA Finals, all
those things. Now, March Madness can be up there with
that feel. But we didn't have many of those moments
(19:05):
this March Madness. But with hockey and one goal games
and the storylines. And that's why I wanted to a
emeric on tomorrow. He'll join us on the program. All right,
we'll settle on a poll question there, Seaton.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
What do you have for me?
Speaker 10 (19:21):
That's a fun one from from Dylan. As a matter
of fact, Oh, okay, who had a better run in
their respective sport? Greg Popovich Warren Buffett. You could also
say bigger retirement announced this weekend.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
H M.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Warren Buffett stepping down. That's that Berkshire Hathaway.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I would say, well, okay, whose legacy would you rather have,
Warren Buffett's or Greg Popovich.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
I'm gonna go Warren Buffett. Yeah, I go Greg on
that one.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, Warren Buffett didn't have any losing seasons. He won
the lottery every year. He got Tim Duncan and Victor
Winmben Yama every year.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Yes, Todd.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
If legacy doesn't necessarily equal money, I would go with Seton.
I would take Greg Popovich for legacy. Obviously, money is
a whole other world that numbers we're talking about.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Thank you to our starting lineup, the King of comedy,
Fritzie Wally, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 11 (20:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (20:28):
Warren Buffett's still going relatively good health. I think mid
nineties ninety four. I saw a story on him yesterday.
He's old a sis as well. He's in the same
house that he's owned since nineteen fifty eight.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Yeah, I've driven by it.
Speaker 12 (20:42):
It's and it's I wouldn't say it's modest, but it's
under four thousand square feet.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Yeah, you would never know that one of the richest
men in the world lives there when you drive by.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
But yeah, I drove by it. There have to be
a lot of people as soon as they get there. No, Holly, right,
can we go over to Warren Buffett's house? Yeah, uber
driver takes you over, You drive by and you go, okay,
then that's it.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
It's comfortable.
Speaker 9 (21:05):
I don't need to mention.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
Why would I move out?
Speaker 3 (21:10):
That's your Warren. That's pretty good seatons laugh.
Speaker 16 (21:17):
Our memory is there, they put okay, all right.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
I don't know if there's a big market for Warren
Buffett and impersonation.
Speaker 8 (21:26):
Just checked.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Greg Popovich health wise needed to step down as the
coach of the San Antonio Spurs, but he had that
roller coaster ride where you're winning championships and then he
had that probably in any other market might have a
job that was hanging in the balance. But you missed
the playoffs for five consecutive years, and we saw this
(21:49):
with Belichick. Then all of a sudden, it's like it
kind of worn out as welcome. But you know, the
Papovich is san Antonio. You can't mention san Antonio before
getting to great Popovich's name and what he did with
those teams, I mean, extremely fortunate. But then look at
these great coaches. Red Arbach, although he was a genius
(22:10):
pulling off two of the biggest trades in NBA history
where he got Kevin McHale and Robert Parrish, and then
where he traded with Saint Louis Hawks and got the
rights to Bill Russell, drafted Larry Bird a year early.
Those three things, you know, changed the NBA. So I'm
gonna separate red arback because they didn't have free agency
(22:30):
when you drafted somebody, I mean, everybody was basically a
Hall of Famer who played for the Celtics. But Phil Jackson,
you know, Doug Collins gets fired. Phil steps in. Michael
Jordan's there. He's lucky they had Jerry Krause who added
some pieces so they could win championships. Phil goes to
the Lakers, where they underperformed. Phil comes in all of
(22:51):
a sudden, he's got Shaq in Covid. You need to
have great player. Great players can make a great coach.
You can have a great coach. Doesn't mean you're gonna
have a great plays, great results. But you know, these
guys all have players. Will be the first to tell
you you got to have players. Now you can look
at somebody like Larry Brown, who had many, many, many stops,
(23:12):
and I think Larry's one of the great coaches of
all time.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
He was able to go.
Speaker 8 (23:16):
Now.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Part of the problem I had with Larry is he
never stayed too long in one place, but wherever he went.
You know, Rick Pattino same way. These are great, great
coaches and put him in a scenario and they're going
to win. Except for when Rick was in Boston and
thought he was going to get Tim Duncan, and all
of a sudden Duncan goes to the Spurs. That's when
(23:37):
David Robinson had an injured back, and I think in
April they were like, he probably tells the coach pomp
starting to feel.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
A little better. No, no, no, no, you're not. No,
your back's still sore. No, No I think I'm fit. No,
I think your back is still sore. Oh we need
more ping pong balls for getting Timmy. Okay, got a coach.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
But then you know, they draft Manu Ginobili in the
second round, they get Tony Parker at the end of
the first round. Those are the little things, not necessarily
little things, but forgotten things that helped make a dynasty.
You know, Robert or look at what Robert Orry meant to.
You know, these teams winning championships. You know, getting Kawhi Leonard.
Nobody knew anything about Kawhi Leonard. He was supposed to
(24:23):
be a defensive minded guy. They got him mid first round.
That's where there's real genius there. And you know, Pop
was gruff with the media, like we got it. There
was kind of a wink, Hey, this is who you know,
my personality. He was kind of in on the joke
with it. And you know, my interactions with him were
(24:44):
very limited. And he was winning championships. You know, when
when when the Knicks they beat the Knicks, he didn't
want to talk. That's he just that isn't who he was.
He said, no, the players won the championship. I said, yeah,
I know, but you know we the head coach when
he goes, yeah, I don't want to do it. You know,
let the players do the talking. I mean, he was
(25:05):
really selfless. But you know military background, Air Force, and
you know, I got it very regimented. But he's another
one of those guys that his players. You know, Brent
Barry would go, man, he's funny. I said, when is
he fun? He goes not necessarily in practice, because Brent
(25:25):
Barry used to get lit up by him all the time.
He got yelled at all the time. But he said,
you know, you get a couple of glasses of wine
in him, and man, he's a lot of fun. I go, well,
that's not happening now. It's kind of hard to say, hey, Pop,
before you sit down and do an interview, can you
drink a couple of glasses of wine? But you know
the Patriots say that about Belichick. Man, he's got a
(25:45):
great sense of humor.
Speaker 15 (25:46):
Eh.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
I don't think I'll ever see it. I just saw
where Belichick reportedly hired or he's exploring hiring a PR person.
I thought he was going out with his PR person.
I thought you he was doing such a great job.
Maybe not Peter King. Did you see Peter King came
out and was really critical. It's like, Bill, you're embarrassing yourself.
(26:11):
Get your act together. The thing that I think is
lost on a lot of people is with Belichick. This
hurts him with the NFL. If he still hopes to
go back into the NFL, what owner is going to
want this.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
Bill?
Speaker 2 (26:28):
I can't see any scenario. I thought that he wasn't
going to be hired by any other team. That's why
he went to college, and I think he wants to prove, Hey,
I can still coach. Look at what I did here,
Maybe I can do that for your team. You're this
close to the all time victory list, you know, don Shula.
I just I don't think anybody's going to bring this in.
Speaker 8 (26:51):
There.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
I wouldn't. It's like it's hard enough to win.
Speaker 11 (26:54):
Now.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
I gotta deal with all of whatever this is over
here with him and his girlfriend. Good luck, all right,
Paul and I aw it leads off. Hi, Paul, what's
on your mind today?
Speaker 11 (27:07):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (27:07):
Dan?
Speaker 17 (27:07):
Well, I got two best and a stat of the
Weekend first best. A final post draft thought. After a
underhanded and shadowy gambling investigation in a Division one playing band,
former four star quarterback Hunter Deckers has been invited to
Saints camp so he gets his shot at the NFL,
which he really deserved. Happy to see that. Other best
(27:28):
of the weekend, nothing's better than Game seven hockey Winnipeg
down two at home with under two to go, two
goals with an empty net, extra man on the ice.
That was incredible. And the stat of the weekend is nicolea.
Jokic is the first player in NBA history to average
a triple double for a season and to win a
(27:49):
playoff series in that season.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Hey, thank you, Paul, take care of the baby there.
More importantly, Yeah Buddha in San Francisco, Hi Buddha, welcome back.
Speaker 11 (28:09):
Happy Monday boys. Let's go fritzy cool on the pole question.
Speaker 13 (28:15):
I'm going pop all day and a big wine guy Dan,
as you know, I've had the pleasure of pouring him
wine as well. So and real quick, my wow or wow?
The weekend has to be Scotti Scheffler finishing at minus
thirty one.
Speaker 11 (28:28):
I was like, I was tuning in. I was like, what,
But best of the weekend the Dubs.
Speaker 13 (28:34):
Advancing, which means America continues to enjoy Chef Curry's cooking
in the playoffs against the young stud that is Anthony
Edwards and then the Wolves that should be super fun
to watch and worst of the weekend Houston rockets Young
Roster folding like a stack at cards in front.
Speaker 11 (28:52):
Of the fans at home. I mean, Dan, but you
got to be proud of them, as you preached.
Speaker 13 (28:57):
They made someone else beat them, like they must listen
to the show because if Buddy Heel doesn't have thirty
three points, that ending is very different. And Hugh Town
has a bright future.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
Man.
Speaker 13 (29:08):
Yeah, last yeah, yeah, lastly, I don't care if it's
Steph Curry, Chef Curry, Dell Curry, well was in.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Five Thank you, Thank you, Buddha. This is where I
would put Anthony Edwards on Steph Curry. And sometimes you
don't see this because you don't want to take away
the offensive energy by having somebody play defense and all
that energy it takes to run around and guard Steph Curry.
(29:35):
But I gotta believe Anthony Edwards, with his athleticism, his
age that if you just said I want you to
shut down Steph Curry, now you're not going to shut
him down. But I would love to see that because
a lot of times it would be best player guarding
the best player.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
That doesn't always happen.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Be like we're gonna have somebody else in there because
I want to concentrate on the offensive side things. But
I would love to see Anthony Edwards Steph Curry. I
mean Steph against Anthony Edwards. Probably wouldn't be pretty with
him guarding him, but Anthony Edwards against Steph Curry, that
would be awesome.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
David in La.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
By the way, big news about Michigan's football team coming up,

have that for you coming up here momentarily.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
Hi, David, Good morning Dan.
Speaker 18 (30:32):
My best of the weekend has already been abundantly summarized,
that epic ho hockey game last night. Furthermore, goalie Connor
Hallibeck exercising the demons that plagued him after gave him
polled in all three road games. My worst the Mets
dropping two to the Cardinals yesterday. And Fritzi, you'll like this.
(30:53):
It's the sixteenth year, I believe, sixteenth year in a row,
that the Mets have lost their thirty sixth game of
the season. Maybe some thoughts on that inexplicable curse.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Okay, they lost their thirty sixth game what am I
missing with that stat?
Speaker 11 (31:11):
David.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
The sixteenth year.
Speaker 18 (31:13):
Let me repeat that they lost their This is the
sixteenth year in a row that they have lost number thirty.
Speaker 6 (31:22):
On the game.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Number thirty very random, but thank you for that. For
some reason, I'm trying to who's number thirty six was?
Was Jerry Kuzman number thirty six?
Speaker 8 (31:39):
I might be right, I'm checking.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
Thank you, Tod.
Speaker 17 (31:43):
You might be right.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Yeah, I might be wrong too, Todd.
Speaker 4 (31:48):
Thirty six, Jerry Kuzman.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Okay, all right, thank you with Garry Kuzman.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Thank you, Thank you, Marvin. I appreciate nobody else applauded.

Michigan's head coach Sharon Moore expected to be suspended for
two games for the upcoming season. This is part of
self imposed sanctions by the university. This for the Connors
(34:14):
Stallions advanced scouting scandal. This according to ESPN, The suspensions
take place in weeks three and four. They face Central
Michigan and Nebraska, so he's barred from any team activities.
Also additional recruiting related penalties. There's still the possibility with
(34:38):
further punishments from the NCAA. Now you're probably wondering, well,
why isn't he suspended for the first two games of
the season. One of those games is Oklahoma, and that's
where he went to school, his alma mater. So very
thoughtful of Michigan. Michigan opens the season hosting New Mexico,
then they travel to Oklahoma, that is Sharon Moore's alma mater.
(35:04):
Let's see Michigan back in August of twenty twenty four,
cited for eleven violations, six of which were deemed Level one.
Those are the most serious allegations. The school and the
NC double A are working towards a resolution. So Coach's
suspension ties back to him allegedly deleting a thread of
(35:26):
fifty two text messages with Connor Stallions and the signs
stealing scandal.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
Let's see.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
According to ESPN, the text were recovered via device imaging
and Sharon Moore subsequently produced them to enforce. So it's
got to be suspended for two games. But if you're
asking somebody who is a Michigan alum or played at
Michigan or maybe even Jim Harball, it was probably worth
(36:02):
it all. Everybody won. Now you've got to pay the price.
But all right, so two games and then maybe it
all goes away after this. But people have you know,
said to me, and usually it's Michigan alum. You know
what did we get out of that? You know, it's
just like Spygate with the Patriots. Well, if you don't
(36:23):
get anything out of it, then why are you doing it?
And you know, Connor Stallions had family and friends who
were going out and doing this. He didn't necessarily go
to all these games, but they won a title. So
you know, if you're gonna do it at least win
a title. I'm always, you know, disappointed, amazed when somebody
(36:43):
goes through whatever hoops to cheat and then then they
don't win, Like, come on, if you're gonna do it,
at least have the risk and the reward there. But
Connor Stallions and Sharon Moore intertwined once again. I don't
know where things stand. And you know the NC double A,
who knows? I mean, this is Michigan's self imposed This
(37:05):
isn't the NC double A. Dan in South Bend, Good
morning Dan, what's on your mind?
Speaker 11 (37:10):
Hey?
Speaker 18 (37:11):
Dan?
Speaker 6 (37:11):
Good morning? So my best of my worst of the
weekend was the weather in South Bend was horrible this weekend.
My best of the weekend was the wife and I
watched Crazy, Stupid, Love, Old Dads and Draft Day, so
kind of a variety but good movies. And but I
got to disagree with you about the Belichick and I
rarely disagree with you, but they these owners have signed
(37:34):
Deshaun Watson contract that didn't make any sense, and all
guys of other things. If Belichick is off a little bit,
I mean, if he takes Louth Carolina and gets ten wins,
eleven wins, something crazy for a couple of years in
a row. Someone will take him. One of these teams
will take him, I believe.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Well, no, I disagree because Deshaun Watson's just a player,
and you made an offer he couldn't refuse. And that's
from an owner who doesn't have a great track record. Belichick,
you're giving control of the organization. The Browns are going
to move on from Deshaun Watson, but with a coach,
and he's also GM and also you have your girlfriend there.
(38:15):
It's different. I can't see an NFL team going you
know what. And if he was in such demand, why
didn't he get a job. That's one of those AA
he's going to be out of a job for fifteen minutes.
It's going to be a little longer than that. But
he's seventy three. Let's say he's there two years, so
(38:36):
now seventy five. No, No, not in today's NFL.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
They're just not going to do it.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
Not going to turn over their team to Bill Belichick
while he's winning. Everything's great, but he kept everything quiet,
he kept everything under wraps. Nothing got out the Patriot way.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
This is different. I mean, that's what Peter King is saying.
It's like, what is going on here? Bill?
Speaker 2 (39:04):
A control freak who's lost control. I cannot see him
coaching in the NFL again. I just don't think a
team is going to go. Let's just turn everything over.
And if you're firing a coach, so he's going to
come in, well, how long is he going to be
there to turn things around? If it's a bad team
and he comes in, it's going to be around three years.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
I can't see that happening. Shawn in Kansas, Good morning, Sean.
What's on your mind today?
Speaker 16 (39:34):
Hey guys, thanks for taking my call. Once again. I
have a best or worst and a stat of the day.
Oh my worst is my daughter was sick all week.
I had to skip work and I watched Leland Stitch
like thirty six times. So that was a fun week.
But it did allow me to do the best, which
I haven't seen at Kentucky Derby because of work or
(39:55):
traveling for like thirteen years. So it allowed me to
stay home and watch the derby, which was awesome. To
experience those last thirty seconds like they're supposed to be experienced.
That's that's what it's all about. My stat of the
day has to do about hockey. The Colorado Avalanche are
the first team in any major sport that includes baseball, hockey,
(40:16):
and basketball to lose seven straight consecutive game sevens.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
Stat of the Day, stat of the Day, That past
stat of the Day. Stat of the Day here comes
that what stat of the.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Day Brought to you by Panini America, the official trading
cards for the Dan Patrick Show. Prior to Sunday, hockey
teams with at least a two goal lead in the
third period of a game seven won almost ninety seven
percent of the time dramatic fashion. With the win, Scotty
(40:53):
Scheffler had a sixty three on Sunday. He went thirty
one under par and his score two fifty three that
matches the lowest seventy two hole score in PGA Tour history.
Justin Thomas and Ludwig Oberg are the ones who shared
that with Scotti Scheffler. He looks makes it look really easy,
(41:17):
very simple, like Tiger did it in a way that
you know, it was almost like Mike Tyson punching you,
like you had to notice it. Scotty Scheffler, It's just
like you're going, man, that's that's two Bertie, Well, that's
an eagle. What's he shooting? How many under Tiger? Was?
Speaker 3 (41:38):
Tyson like it was coming and it was gonna hurt.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
Scotty Scheffler is like, at the end of the day,
you got I don't know, like paper cuts all over you.
One hour in the books on this Monday, best and
worst of the weekend. More phone calls coming up foregone
conclusion that Luca will stay with the Lakers, and what
about Lebron coming out
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hope you had a great weekend, everybody, boy, there was
a lot of sports to recap. We'll try to do
our best over the next three hours. Best and worst
of the weekend. You get an opportunity what you saw
that you liked, you didn't like. Eight seven seven three
DP Show Operator Tyler's sitting by and we say good morning.
If you're watching on Peacock, thank you for downloading the
app to watch this program. Stat of the Day has

Exclusions apply. Seetruegreen dot com for details. Play at the
(00:47):
eight pole question stat of the Day. All of that forthcoming.
We'll talk some basketball a little bit later on Jim Jackson,
former NBA player now analyst. We'll talk about the Warriors
closing out the Rockets and the Rockets got a bright future.
The Nuggets close out the Clippers. More on that in
the moment I told you be aware of the Pacers.
(01:08):
Feels like a foregone conclusion. The Cabs as great as
they were during the regular season, this is an interesting
Pacer team and they are going to continue to bring
the offensive noise. Tonight, Nix at the Celtics and the
Nuggets at the Thunder. The oddsmakers Vegas isn't expecting close games.
I think both teams, Nicks and the Nuggets are nine
(01:29):
to nine and a half point underdogs. Greg Popovich, this
was about fifteen minutes after we left the show on Friday.
Decided to step down as this Spurs head coach will
move into the front office.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Scotti.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Scheffler, in dramatic fashion, wins the Byron Nelson dramatic just
because he dominated and the Jets over the Blues in
two overtimes in Game seven. Speaking of Game sevens, speaking
of hockey, Doc Emrick, I believe on the show tomorrow.
Been a while since we talked to Doc, and uh,
hope retirement is treating him well. We'll see if we
(02:04):
can get that voice. You know, I don't know if
he's doing play by play around the house. I don't
know what play by play guys do when there's no
games to call. Todd did bring up something interesting? Yeah,
breaking news, breaking news.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Yes, I'm a shot. Yes.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
So I come in today and Todd goes, what do
you like best? Down this stretch? They come goal, he shoots,
he scores, touchdown, eight, nine, ten, it's a knockout. So
when you think about all of these things that we
say in sports, like what's the best one? So Todd,
(02:42):
I'll let you tell me which one you think is
the best? You know, a home run, it could be,
it might be, it could be, it is, it's gone.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
I think, especially Recncy bias of how exciting the Stanley
Cup playoffs have been, I'm going to go with the
he shoots his goness. I kind of like that over
all the other ones.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Okay, I still like down the stretch they come because
we don't hear it very often, usually three times a year,
and there is something about that if you've ever been
to those races, to be in the moment, there that excitement.
Now you don't hear down the stretch like we do
on TV. Sovereignty ends up winning the Kentucky Derby and
(03:19):
muddy conditions there. Journalism came in second. I'm glad journalism
at least placed in there. I was worried about journalism
because in my business, journalism is not going to be
in the top three, not going to win placer show.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Yes, Todd, where would.
Speaker 4 (03:35):
Riders up and gentlemen, start your engines be on that
list wall?
Speaker 3 (03:39):
There's something exciting is about that start your Engines? I
would put up there.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
I don't know about riders, but down the stretch, you
know when you hear that, it's just it's something magical,
and it feels like just about everybody thinks their horse
has a chance when down the stretch they come.
Speaker 3 (03:57):
Well.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I would probably opt for that, just based off recency
bias as well. Best and worst of the weekend. We'll
get to your phone calls coming up. A gift that
keeps on giving is James Harden. And you know, when
you look at the regular season, regular season James Harden,
I think twenty two points eight assist. We like the Clippers.
People thought, oh you got a healthy Kawhi Leonard. Okay,
(04:20):
they can do some damage. They can knock off Denver,
they could give Oklahoma City a real tussle, but last
night they were blown. It was a no show. They
were blown out or over the week kind of should say,
and then you have, you know what happened. So the
Nuggets end up winning, Golden State ends up winning. Now
(04:40):
you got some pretty interesting matchups, but we tend to
focus on the team that just lost. So with what
happened with the Clippers and once again James Harden in
a game seven is a no show. Here is his
head coach, Ty Lou on the Clippers losing.
Speaker 5 (04:56):
You know, it's tough loss, and I said, not playing
on best game in a situation like this, and you know,
a lot of emotions, and so just tell the guys
bring it in, you know, one last hug and you
know we'll we'll talk tomorrow. But you know, they came
out I thought we came out with a with a
decent mindset. They went to that zone and kind of
made a stacking offensively because the way we were attacking them,
(05:18):
and then I thought, you know, when they went to
that zone, it's kind of slowed us down offensively, and
then defensively didn't we didn't really you know, get into them,
get closer to the guys and have that pressure, and
so they were able to pick us apart.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
Okay, and this isn't all on James Harden, but there
is a pattern here. It is last thirteen elimination games,
James Harden's teams are two and eleven, and the numbers
are even worse after that. By the way, he was
a no show after their losses. He didn't meet with
the media. But James now, he did have twenty six
(05:51):
twenty eight points I think game six, So I thought, okay,
maybe this is going to be different for him. Thirteen
elimination games, shot thirty nine percent from the floor. Team
is two and eleven. Uh, he's averaged fourteen points on
thirty eight percent shooting. And then you look at some
(06:12):
of the other numbers. Here Steph Curry fourteen career elimination games,
he has scored I think one time under twenty points
once in sixteen career elimination games. Kevin Durant under twenty points.
Lebron James twenty nine career elimination games has never been
held under twenty points. Meanwhile, Hardin has scored less than
(06:35):
twenty points in twelve of twenty six career elimination games,
including seven of his last thirteen.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Stell of a day stand of a day, stead of
a day, scant outa day. This is the Stele.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Of the Day, brought to you by Benini America. Even
more in fact and embarrassing, James Harden's last three game sevens.
He scored seven points, he scored nine points, he scored
twenty two points. He went two for eight, he went
three for eleven that was in a loss to Boston
(07:14):
and five of seventeen in a lost to Milwaukee back
in twenty twenty one. I can't have one of my
best scores, one of the great scorers in the history
of the league, get eight shots. Now, he did have
double digit assist okay, but I want him to score.
I need him to score. I need him to shoot.
I mean, I'd rather that he was two for eighteen
(07:36):
than two for eight. I gotta have him getting shots up.
But once again he no showed the Clippers bow out
dramatic fashion. And you know, we're left to wonder, how
many more years, how many more postseasons will you get
with Kawhi Leonard where he's healthy and playing well, and
(07:56):
then you got Harden who had a good regular season,
but trying to match them up in the postseason and
get maybe some Magic here and you start to look
and you go, Okay, where do you kind of fit
in here? It looks like the Rockets are going to
be here to stay now. They might add I know
we've talked about Kevin Durant, but you know, if I'm them,
(08:17):
I do what Oklahoma City did, Stay the course, keep
your nucleus. I don't want to bring in a thirty five,
thirty six year old Kevin Durant. I'm not trying to
catch Magic in one year. I'm going to try to
do this, you know, make this sustainable, Make this just
like Okasee and okayc is going to be here for
a while. Now you have to look and go. If
(08:38):
you're the Clippers, where are we, We're kind of in
the middle. You know, Denver's got in depth, they got
bench is really contributed. You still got Joker playing at
a high level for a few more years. Can Jamal
Murray stay healthy? You know, so that could be sustainable
for a few more years to be a contender there,
Golden State. I mean, you're kind of looking at the
(09:01):
last go round. It feels like or at least maybe
one more go round. What about the Lakers with Lebron
You know, you start to look at where you are
in your division, in your conference, and that's what I
start to wonder about the Clippers. They're kind of a
no man's land good team, potentially a really good team.
(09:21):
The problem is is age, injuries, and you're always going
to have James Harden not showing.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Up in big games.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
But now we sometimes look at these teams as they
exit and go, okay, what is the future here? As
I said with Detroit, I think they got a bright future.
Don't go crazy, And I do think depth is really
the important thing to keep an eye on. In the playoffs,
Denver showed depth. You gotta have more than six seven guys.
(09:51):
OKC has depth, Cleveland has depth. Indiana has depth. That's
sort of the new thing. I don't need three stars,
I need two stars and depth. Celtics they got a
lot of depth. They got two big stars, a lot
of depth. That's what I would be concentrating on if
I'm trying to build my team or continue to build
my team.
Speaker 3 (10:12):
Depth.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Don't go out there and get a big ticket item.
If you have a young nucleus and you're sold on them,
let them grow together. Hopefully you get a star or
two I mean, OKC has one star, he's going to
be the MVP, but you have a couple other guys
who are at least in the conversation of being a star.
And that's really important. But Boston, Boston is so deep.
(10:35):
Cleveland deep, Indiana deep, just feels like that's the new
wave with luxury taxes, the apron as they like to
call that. So just some things to keep an eye
on in the off season with these teams. Speaking of
Denver Russell Westbrook Junior, the third, this might be as
honest of an answer as you're going to get from
(10:57):
an athlete who is assessing his talent.
Speaker 6 (11:01):
You know, my.
Speaker 7 (11:01):
Ability to be able to be a force of nature
on the floor is what I pride myself phone, So
whatever that looks like, it may be a turnover, it
may be a misshot, but it may be a steal,
maybe a dunk, maybe a mystery, maybe.
Speaker 8 (11:16):
A may three.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It's gonna be all of that.
Speaker 9 (11:18):
It's gonna be everything.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
So you just take it, take it.
Speaker 5 (11:20):
But how it comes and whatever happens, you go with it.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Okay, he's gonna help somebody win. I don't know if
it's his team or your team, but he's gonna help. Uh,
but he's you know, he gives you that jolt of
energy coming off the bench. And this used to be
so important. You know, we came up with sixth Man
of the Year that award John Habilcheck. I think they
(11:44):
invented the award for him with the Celtics. You come
off the bench and you give that blast of energy.
Kevin McHale was a sixth man. Yet guys man who genobily.
They came in and they gave you that boost. That's
why I'd love to see Austin Reeves be that sixth
man for the Lakers. You come in and all of
a sudden, you're better than everybody else in that second
(12:04):
unit for the other team, and you're able to put
up some offense. Russell Westbrook brings you energy and he
had to accept coming off the bench as well. But
he's fun. He's fun to watch. Buddy Healed went off
last night. He was nine of eleven from three point range.
Speaker 3 (12:22):
And that's one of.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Those where if you're Houston and you go we're still
trailing and Steph Curry hasn't done much, you know you're
in trouble because Buddy Healed went off and then Steph
had like.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
Fourteen points in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
But that was Golden State showing Houston, hey, nice, try
get experience and then try it again next year. That
was the feeling I got with Houston. Thought they were
going to be a team to contend with this year.
Maybe not a contender, but to contend with. And that
proved to be true. And I thought that this was
(12:58):
a fact finding mission, just like with you go into
the postseason, let's kind of figure out what do you need.
And you saw a team, you saw a coach, they
knew what they were doing in that game. It was
just experience. Now you do have Steph. You didn't think
Buddy Heal was going to go off. But with Golden State,
it's fun, fun to see them out there, you know,
(13:20):
in the latter stages of careers. Seaton, what's poll question today?
Speaker 10 (13:24):
For the first hour, it feels like we're kind of
kicking one around about James Harden's legacy. Maybe maybe we're
going to stumble onto one of those.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
But can you think of a first ballance Hall of
Famer who is this flawed?
Speaker 11 (13:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (13:41):
See, well right, While also he's an absolute Hall of Famer,
he's one of the greatest scoring players of all time,
probably right. He's revolutionized the game in how you draw fouls,
how you do certain things. He's had a massive impact
on the game, will maybe not always getting the credit
for that, and then unfortunately doesn't have the success to
(14:03):
show for it other than for the most part, extremely
great play.
Speaker 11 (14:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (14:09):
I don't know if there's another NBA comp for this
where that guy was so great then he didn't show
up in the postseason. And he's done this with all
the teams he's been with. It's not just the Clippers.
But to have the highest of highs where you're averaging
thirty five a game, you change the game at least
with one move that you make. But you kind of
(14:32):
look at him, you go, yeah, but yeah pulling James.
Speaker 12 (14:36):
Harden led the league in scoring three years in a row.
He's led the league and assist two times. Really, the
only modern day comp might be Russell Westbrook. Russell led
the league in scoring twice, He's led the league and
assist three times. And Russell had the bonus of he
had four different seasons where he averaged ten or more rebounds.
Speaker 3 (14:54):
Is nuts. Yeah, but it's weird.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I never look at Russell Westbrook as that's the guy
I gotta stop. Like, I was always curious about him.
You know, he wasn't a good shooter. He scored. But Harden,
I think you look at and you go, nobody can
stop him. Like when he gets on a run, nobody's
gonna stop him. Russ didn't shoot well enough. Where you go, man,
(15:17):
you got to stop that. Now his jumper looks pretty good.
He hit a couple of big shots, a couple of threes,
and I go that the form looks really good. Now
I know he's hit the side of the backboard and done.
You know he'll miss him when he misses, like, he'll
miss really bad.
Speaker 13 (15:32):
But I don't.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
I think I expect Harden to win more, to be
to be the guy in these big moments. I think
with Russ, I just thought that, Okay, he's still that curiosity.
He's going to give you a triple double, but he's
also gonna help the other team. I never felt that
way with Harden until you look at these game sevens,
you look at his postseasons. I mean, I don't know
(15:59):
if there's another comp here, Marvin, you got one, anybody
who comes to mind.
Speaker 9 (16:05):
It's crazy because I don't in the Game sevens is
really what separates him from other guys where that's a
glaring omission because he's had so many no shows in
big time Game sevens. He was a part of that
Game seven where the Rockets missed twenty seven straight down
three pointers. Yeah, they almost took out the seventy three
one Warriors.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
You know, all right, we'll get to some phone calls,
we'll settle on a pull question. H eight seven seven
three DP show just getting started, and we'll be back
after this on the Dan Patrick Show.

(18:02):
Get to your phone calls. Coming up, best and worst
of the weekend. What you saw that you liked you
didn't like. I didn't get to watch the game, but
I watched the highlights. The Jets against the Blues in
two overtimes, and the Blues are up. I think they
led three games to one. They were up three to
one with two minutes to go, then all of a
(18:23):
sudden goal, and then with about three seconds to go,
another goal, and it goes into overtime, a second overtime
and Winnipeg beats the Blues in Game seven. I might
be off on that, up three games to one, but
the Jets. That's what we love about hockey. Of all
the sports, when you think about regular season and you
(18:43):
think about postseason, even if you're not a hockey fan, postseason,
hockey is better than all the other sports as far
as excitement goes. I know, we have the Super Bowl,
you know, a World Series, so obviously NBA Finals, all
those things. Now, March Madness can be up there with
that feel. But we didn't have many of those moments
(19:05):
this March Madness. But with hockey and one goal games
and the storylines. And that's why I wanted to a
emeric on tomorrow. He'll join us on the program. All right,
we'll settle on a poll question there, Seaton.
Speaker 3 (19:19):
What do you have for me?
Speaker 10 (19:21):
That's a fun one from from Dylan. As a matter
of fact, Oh, okay, who had a better run in
their respective sport? Greg Popovich Warren Buffett. You could also
say bigger retirement announced this weekend.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
H M.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
Warren Buffett stepping down. That's that Berkshire Hathaway.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I would say, well, okay, whose legacy would you rather have,
Warren Buffett's or Greg Popovich.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
I'm gonna go Warren Buffett. Yeah, I go Greg on
that one.
Speaker 2 (20:00):
Yeah, Warren Buffett didn't have any losing seasons. He won
the lottery every year. He got Tim Duncan and Victor
Winmben Yama every year.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Yes, Todd.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
If legacy doesn't necessarily equal money, I would go with Seton.
I would take Greg Popovich for legacy. Obviously, money is
a whole other world that numbers we're talking about.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Thank you to our starting lineup, the King of comedy,
Fritzie Wally, Yes, Paul.
Speaker 11 (20:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 12 (20:28):
Warren Buffett's still going relatively good health. I think mid
nineties ninety four. I saw a story on him yesterday.
He's old a sis as well. He's in the same
house that he's owned since nineteen fifty eight.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Yeah, I've driven by it.
Speaker 12 (20:42):
It's and it's I wouldn't say it's modest, but it's
under four thousand square feet.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Yeah, you would never know that one of the richest
men in the world lives there when you drive by.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
But yeah, I drove by it. There have to be
a lot of people as soon as they get there. No, Holly, right,
can we go over to Warren Buffett's house? Yeah, uber
driver takes you over, You drive by and you go, okay,
then that's it.
Speaker 3 (21:04):
It's comfortable.
Speaker 9 (21:05):
I don't need to mention.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
Why would I move out?
Speaker 3 (21:10):
That's your Warren. That's pretty good seatons laugh.
Speaker 16 (21:17):
Our memory is there, they put okay, all right.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
I don't know if there's a big market for Warren
Buffett and impersonation.
Speaker 8 (21:26):
Just checked.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Greg Popovich health wise needed to step down as the
coach of the San Antonio Spurs, but he had that
roller coaster ride where you're winning championships and then he
had that probably in any other market might have a
job that was hanging in the balance. But you missed
the playoffs for five consecutive years, and we saw this
(21:49):
with Belichick. Then all of a sudden, it's like it
kind of worn out as welcome. But you know, the
Papovich is san Antonio. You can't mention san Antonio before
getting to great Popovich's name and what he did with
those teams, I mean, extremely fortunate. But then look at
these great coaches. Red Arbach, although he was a genius
(22:10):
pulling off two of the biggest trades in NBA history
where he got Kevin McHale and Robert Parrish, and then
where he traded with Saint Louis Hawks and got the
rights to Bill Russell, drafted Larry Bird a year early.
Those three things, you know, changed the NBA. So I'm
gonna separate red arback because they didn't have free agency
(22:30):
when you drafted somebody, I mean, everybody was basically a
Hall of Famer who played for the Celtics. But Phil Jackson,
you know, Doug Collins gets fired. Phil steps in. Michael
Jordan's there. He's lucky they had Jerry Krause who added
some pieces so they could win championships. Phil goes to
the Lakers, where they underperformed. Phil comes in all of
(22:51):
a sudden, he's got Shaq in Covid. You need to
have great player. Great players can make a great coach.
You can have a great coach. Doesn't mean you're gonna
have a great plays, great results. But you know, these
guys all have players. Will be the first to tell
you you got to have players. Now you can look
at somebody like Larry Brown, who had many, many, many stops,
(23:12):
and I think Larry's one of the great coaches of
all time.
Speaker 3 (23:15):
He was able to go.
Speaker 8 (23:16):
Now.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
Part of the problem I had with Larry is he
never stayed too long in one place, but wherever he went.
You know, Rick Pattino same way. These are great, great
coaches and put him in a scenario and they're going
to win. Except for when Rick was in Boston and
thought he was going to get Tim Duncan, and all
of a sudden Duncan goes to the Spurs. That's when
(23:37):
David Robinson had an injured back, and I think in
April they were like, he probably tells the coach pomp
starting to feel.
Speaker 3 (23:46):
A little better. No, no, no, no, you're not. No,
your back's still sore. No, No I think I'm fit. No,
I think your back is still sore. Oh we need
more ping pong balls for getting Timmy. Okay, got a coach.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
But then you know, they draft Manu Ginobili in the
second round, they get Tony Parker at the end of
the first round. Those are the little things, not necessarily
little things, but forgotten things that helped make a dynasty.
You know, Robert or look at what Robert Orry meant to.
You know, these teams winning championships. You know, getting Kawhi Leonard.
Nobody knew anything about Kawhi Leonard. He was supposed to
(24:23):
be a defensive minded guy. They got him mid first round.
That's where there's real genius there. And you know, Pop
was gruff with the media, like we got it. There
was kind of a wink, Hey, this is who you know,
my personality. He was kind of in on the joke
with it. And you know, my interactions with him were
(24:44):
very limited. And he was winning championships. You know, when
when when the Knicks they beat the Knicks, he didn't
want to talk. That's he just that isn't who he was.
He said, no, the players won the championship. I said, yeah,
I know, but you know we the head coach when
he goes, yeah, I don't want to do it. You know,
let the players do the talking. I mean, he was
(25:05):
really selfless. But you know military background, Air Force, and
you know, I got it very regimented. But he's another
one of those guys that his players. You know, Brent
Barry would go, man, he's funny. I said, when is
he fun? He goes not necessarily in practice, because Brent
(25:25):
Barry used to get lit up by him all the time.
He got yelled at all the time. But he said,
you know, you get a couple of glasses of wine
in him, and man, he's a lot of fun. I go, well,
that's not happening now. It's kind of hard to say, hey, Pop,
before you sit down and do an interview, can you
drink a couple of glasses of wine? But you know
the Patriots say that about Belichick. Man, he's got a
(25:45):
great sense of humor.
Speaker 15 (25:46):
Eh.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
I don't think I'll ever see it. I just saw
where Belichick reportedly hired or he's exploring hiring a PR person.
I thought he was going out with his PR person.
I thought you he was doing such a great job.
Maybe not Peter King. Did you see Peter King came
out and was really critical. It's like, Bill, you're embarrassing yourself.
(26:11):
Get your act together. The thing that I think is
lost on a lot of people is with Belichick. This
hurts him with the NFL. If he still hopes to
go back into the NFL, what owner is going to
want this.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
Bill?
Speaker 2 (26:28):
I can't see any scenario. I thought that he wasn't
going to be hired by any other team. That's why
he went to college, and I think he wants to prove, Hey,
I can still coach. Look at what I did here,
Maybe I can do that for your team. You're this
close to the all time victory list, you know, don Shula.
I just I don't think anybody's going to bring this in.
Speaker 8 (26:51):
There.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
I wouldn't. It's like it's hard enough to win.
Speaker 11 (26:54):
Now.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
I gotta deal with all of whatever this is over
here with him and his girlfriend. Good luck, all right,
Paul and I aw it leads off. Hi, Paul, what's
on your mind today?
Speaker 11 (27:07):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (27:07):
Dan?
Speaker 17 (27:07):
Well, I got two best and a stat of the
Weekend first best. A final post draft thought. After a
underhanded and shadowy gambling investigation in a Division one playing band,
former four star quarterback Hunter Deckers has been invited to
Saints camp so he gets his shot at the NFL,
which he really deserved. Happy to see that. Other best
(27:28):
of the weekend, nothing's better than Game seven hockey Winnipeg
down two at home with under two to go, two
goals with an empty net, extra man on the ice.
That was incredible. And the stat of the weekend is nicolea.
Jokic is the first player in NBA history to average
a triple double for a season and to win a
(27:49):
playoff series in that season.
Speaker 2 (27:52):
Hey, thank you, Paul, take care of the baby there.
More importantly, Yeah Buddha in San Francisco, Hi Buddha, welcome back.
Speaker 11 (28:09):
Happy Monday boys. Let's go fritzy cool on the pole question.
Speaker 13 (28:15):
I'm going pop all day and a big wine guy Dan,
as you know, I've had the pleasure of pouring him
wine as well. So and real quick, my wow or wow?
The weekend has to be Scotti Scheffler finishing at minus
thirty one.
Speaker 11 (28:28):
I was like, I was tuning in. I was like, what,
But best of the weekend the Dubs.
Speaker 13 (28:34):
Advancing, which means America continues to enjoy Chef Curry's cooking
in the playoffs against the young stud that is Anthony
Edwards and then the Wolves that should be super fun
to watch and worst of the weekend Houston rockets Young
Roster folding like a stack at cards in front.
Speaker 11 (28:52):
Of the fans at home. I mean, Dan, but you
got to be proud of them, as you preached.
Speaker 13 (28:57):
They made someone else beat them, like they must listen
to the show because if Buddy Heel doesn't have thirty
three points, that ending is very different. And Hugh Town
has a bright future.
Speaker 6 (29:06):
Man.
Speaker 13 (29:08):
Yeah, last yeah, yeah, lastly, I don't care if it's
Steph Curry, Chef Curry, Dell Curry, well was in.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
Five Thank you, Thank you, Buddha. This is where I
would put Anthony Edwards on Steph Curry. And sometimes you
don't see this because you don't want to take away
the offensive energy by having somebody play defense and all
that energy it takes to run around and guard Steph Curry.
(29:35):
But I gotta believe Anthony Edwards, with his athleticism, his
age that if you just said I want you to
shut down Steph Curry, now you're not going to shut
him down. But I would love to see that because
a lot of times it would be best player guarding
the best player.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
That doesn't always happen.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
Be like we're gonna have somebody else in there because
I want to concentrate on the offensive side things. But
I would love to see Anthony Edwards Steph Curry. I
mean Steph against Anthony Edwards. Probably wouldn't be pretty with
him guarding him, but Anthony Edwards against Steph Curry, that
would be awesome.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
David in La.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
By the way, big news about Michigan's football team coming up,
Big news about Michigan's football team. I'm going to check

Speaker 3 (30:29):
Hi, David, Good morning Dan.
Speaker 18 (30:32):
My best of the weekend has already been abundantly summarized,
that epic ho hockey game last night. Furthermore, goalie Connor
Hallibeck exercising the demons that plagued him after gave him
polled in all three road games. My worst the Mets
dropping two to the Cardinals yesterday. And Fritzi, you'll like this.
(30:53):
It's the sixteenth year, I believe, sixteenth year in a row,
that the Mets have lost their thirty sixth game of
the season. Maybe some thoughts on that inexplicable curse.
Speaker 3 (31:06):
Okay, they lost their thirty sixth game what am I
missing with that stat?
Speaker 11 (31:11):
David.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
The sixteenth year.
Speaker 18 (31:13):
Let me repeat that they lost their This is the
sixteenth year in a row that they have lost number thirty.
Speaker 6 (31:22):
On the game.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Number thirty very random, but thank you for that. For
some reason, I'm trying to who's number thirty six was?
Was Jerry Kuzman number thirty six?
Speaker 8 (31:39):
I might be right, I'm checking.
Speaker 3 (31:40):
Thank you, Tod.
Speaker 17 (31:43):
You might be right.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Yeah, I might be wrong too, Todd.
Speaker 4 (31:48):
Thirty six, Jerry Kuzman.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
Okay, all right, thank you with Garry Kuzman.
Speaker 2 (31:53):

Michigan's head coach Sharon Moore expected to be suspended for
two games for the upcoming season. This is part of
self imposed sanctions by the university. This for the Connors
(34:14):
Stallions advanced scouting scandal. This according to ESPN, The suspensions
take place in weeks three and four. They face Central
Michigan and Nebraska, so he's barred from any team activities.
Also additional recruiting related penalties. There's still the possibility with
(34:38):
further punishments from the NCAA. Now you're probably wondering, well,
why isn't he suspended for the first two games of
the season. One of those games is Oklahoma, and that's
where he went to school, his alma mater. So very
thoughtful of Michigan. Michigan opens the season hosting New Mexico,
then they travel to Oklahoma, that is Sharon Moore's alma mater.
(35:04):
Let's see Michigan back in August of twenty twenty four,
cited for eleven violations, six of which were deemed Level one.
Those are the most serious allegations. The school and the
NC double A are working towards a resolution. So Coach's
suspension ties back to him allegedly deleting a thread of
(35:26):
fifty two text messages with Connor Stallions and the signs
stealing scandal.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
Let's see.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
According to ESPN, the text were recovered via device imaging
and Sharon Moore subsequently produced them to enforce. So it's
got to be suspended for two games. But if you're
asking somebody who is a Michigan alum or played at
Michigan or maybe even Jim Harball, it was probably worth
(36:02):
it all. Everybody won. Now you've got to pay the price.
But all right, so two games and then maybe it
all goes away after this. But people have you know,
said to me, and usually it's Michigan alum. You know
what did we get out of that? You know, it's
just like Spygate with the Patriots. Well, if you don't
(36:23):
get anything out of it, then why are you doing it?
And you know, Connor Stallions had family and friends who
were going out and doing this. He didn't necessarily go
to all these games, but they won a title. So
you know, if you're gonna do it at least win
a title. I'm always, you know, disappointed, amazed when somebody
(36:43):
goes through whatever hoops to cheat and then then they
don't win, Like, come on, if you're gonna do it,
at least have the risk and the reward there. But
Connor Stallions and Sharon Moore intertwined once again. I don't
know where things stand. And you know the NC double A,
who knows? I mean, this is Michigan's self imposed This
(37:05):
isn't the NC double A. Dan in South Bend, Good
morning Dan, what's on your mind?
Speaker 11 (37:10):
Hey?
Speaker 18 (37:11):
Dan?
Speaker 6 (37:11):
Good morning? So my best of my worst of the
weekend was the weather in South Bend was horrible this weekend.
My best of the weekend was the wife and I
watched Crazy, Stupid, Love, Old Dads and Draft Day, so
kind of a variety but good movies. And but I
got to disagree with you about the Belichick and I
rarely disagree with you, but they these owners have signed
(37:34):
Deshaun Watson contract that didn't make any sense, and all
guys of other things. If Belichick is off a little bit,
I mean, if he takes Louth Carolina and gets ten wins,
eleven wins, something crazy for a couple of years in
a row. Someone will take him. One of these teams
will take him, I believe.
Speaker 2 (37:51):
Well, no, I disagree because Deshaun Watson's just a player,
and you made an offer he couldn't refuse. And that's
from an owner who doesn't have a great track record. Belichick,
you're giving control of the organization. The Browns are going
to move on from Deshaun Watson, but with a coach,
and he's also GM and also you have your girlfriend there.
(38:15):
It's different. I can't see an NFL team going you
know what. And if he was in such demand, why
didn't he get a job. That's one of those AA
he's going to be out of a job for fifteen minutes.
It's going to be a little longer than that. But
he's seventy three. Let's say he's there two years, so
(38:36):
now seventy five. No, No, not in today's NFL.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
They're just not going to do it.
Speaker 2 (38:44):
Not going to turn over their team to Bill Belichick
while he's winning. Everything's great, but he kept everything quiet,
he kept everything under wraps. Nothing got out the Patriot way.
Speaker 3 (38:58):
This is different. I mean, that's what Peter King is saying.
It's like, what is going on here? Bill?
Speaker 2 (39:04):
A control freak who's lost control. I cannot see him
coaching in the NFL again. I just don't think a
team is going to go. Let's just turn everything over.
And if you're firing a coach, so he's going to
come in, well, how long is he going to be
there to turn things around? If it's a bad team
and he comes in, it's going to be around three years.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
I can't see that happening. Shawn in Kansas, Good morning, Sean.
What's on your mind today?
Speaker 16 (39:34):
Hey guys, thanks for taking my call. Once again. I
have a best or worst and a stat of the day.
Oh my worst is my daughter was sick all week.
I had to skip work and I watched Leland Stitch
like thirty six times. So that was a fun week.
But it did allow me to do the best, which
I haven't seen at Kentucky Derby because of work or
(39:55):
traveling for like thirteen years. So it allowed me to
stay home and watch the derby, which was awesome. To
experience those last thirty seconds like they're supposed to be experienced.
That's that's what it's all about. My stat of the
day has to do about hockey. The Colorado Avalanche are
the first team in any major sport that includes baseball, hockey,
(40:16):
and basketball to lose seven straight consecutive game sevens.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
Stat of the Day, stat of the Day, That past
stat of the Day. Stat of the Day here comes
that what stat of the.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Day Brought to you by Panini America, the official trading
cards for the Dan Patrick Show. Prior to Sunday, hockey
teams with at least a two goal lead in the
third period of a game seven won almost ninety seven
percent of the time dramatic fashion. With the win, Scotty
(40:53):
Scheffler had a sixty three on Sunday. He went thirty
one under par and his score two fifty three that
matches the lowest seventy two hole score in PGA Tour history.
Justin Thomas and Ludwig Oberg are the ones who shared
that with Scotti Scheffler. He looks makes it look really easy,
(41:17):
very simple, like Tiger did it in a way that
you know, it was almost like Mike Tyson punching you,
like you had to notice it. Scotty Scheffler, It's just
like you're going, man, that's that's two Bertie, Well, that's
an eagle. What's he shooting? How many under Tiger? Was?
Speaker 3 (41:38):
Tyson like it was coming and it was gonna hurt.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
Scotty Scheffler is like, at the end of the day,
you got I don't know, like paper cuts all over you.
One hour in the books on this Monday, best and
worst of the weekend. More phone calls coming up foregone
conclusion that Luca will stay with the Lakers, and what
about Lebron coming out
