Speaker 1 (00:03):
It's the Andy Everage show. Michael and I were during
the break. We're talking about movies that are now sequels.
And the reason I brought this up is because I
saw so many commercials during the Final four for Mission Impossible,
the Final Reckoning Equalizer four. You told me that there's
going to be a John Wick five. Ye, So there's
(00:24):
more action and adventure dramas coming up here pretty soon.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
And Liam Neeson, unless it was fake, apparently they're going
to be renoting or remaking the Naked Gun.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Series or movies.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
So I don't Leslie Nielsen has this weird sense of humor,
had this weird sense of humor. I don't know that
Liam Needson can duplicate it. Let's find out if you can.
All Right, we had a great basketball game last night.
And before last night, Houston was thirty three and oh
when the game when the point total for the winning
team was seventy or less. Oh, now they're thirty three
and one. Oh. I told you yesterday I didn't think
(00:58):
that Florida could win a game in the sixties. They did,
and the reason they did is because of the other
thing I told you that was Houston's Achilles heel They
are the best defensive team I've ever seen in college basketball,
at least since the John Thompson coach Georgetown teams in
the eighties. But they could play defense differently because there
was no shot clock until nineteen eighty five or even
(01:20):
eighty six.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
I think so.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
I think that Houston team is as good a defensive
team as there's ever been. But you sometimes have to
be able to score. And Houston, with the lead and
the opportunity to extend it in the last four possessions
of the game, did not score, and that's the reason
why they didn't win this game. Clayton did not get
off to a good start, but once the Houston biggs
(01:47):
got in foul trouble, that's when he went to work
in the lane because there was nobody there to stop him.
And collectively he and Martin went five of twenty five.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
But that doesn't mean.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
That they came up big when they needed to. The
game was played at Houston's pace. It was good for Houston.
I thought Houston had that game one, just like I
thought Duke had the game won against Houston the week
before or the two games before. But again, you got
to finish these games out and Florida played till the end.
(02:20):
It was the third consecutive game where Florida came from behind,
second game where they came from double digits behind to win.
It was Florida's destiny to win this thing, and Florida's
your champion. But I thought, I feel badly for Houston,
and the only negative part of that game last night
was the final the final play. Even though the previous
three possessions, Houston didn't get the shot they wanted or
(02:42):
didn't get the shot they looked at. It was disappointing
that they didn't even get an attempt. And I guess
they were supposed to run a double screen and neither
guy screened, and the ball got knocked away, and then
the ball got deflected and there was a potential double
dribble if the Houston player would have picked it up,
and ball game over and Florida wins by getting the
(03:03):
last stop that they needed.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
A great game.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
I feel terrible for Calvin Sampson. I think he's one
of the underrated coaches in the world. He has a
unique way of doing things, and he demands defense and accountability,
and I think those are good things. But I'm guessing
right now that Florida thinks of itself as a basketball
school because they've now won three championships.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Yeah, the last time that the Houston Cougars scored a
point was at the two h five mark, when Joseph
Tugler made a free throw two minutes and five seconds,
and they didn't get a point a free throw attempt,
much less a field goal attempt for two minutes.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Doug Gottlieb talks about all the time, how many that
he can relate to these games with that teams didn't
close out because Wisconsin Green Bay had a bunch of
games where they had the lead in the last four
minutes of the game and didn't close out. I can
relate to that too, because UTSA was three and eleven
this year in games decided by three possessions or less,
(04:06):
and in the last four minutes of games they had
chances to either cut the lead or take the lead
and didn't do it.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
And it's just it's such.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
A I mean, even if you, first of all, if
you go eleven and three instead of three and eleven,
now you're winning twenty games. But even if you win
half those, you're winning sixteen seventeen games. And now you
feel so much better about your season. And there's a
fine line between winning and losing games in close games,
(04:34):
and there's teams that get comfortable in those situations, and
there's teams that kind of are not comfortable, maybe get
a little tight. And I thought that happened to Auburn
on Saturday, and I thought it happened to Duke on Saturday,
and it certainly happened to Houston last night.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Yeah, And at the one twenty five mark was the
actual last shot attempt that the Houston Cougar's had by
l J.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Cryer.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
But then the next four possessions you could even include
that one as well, which would technically be five possessions
turnovers turn all.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
They turned it over what four times down the stretch?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
Technically it would have been five because Joseph Tuggle got
an offensive rebound off of that LJ. Crier miss miss jumper,
but he turned it over. So the last quote unquote
five possessions turnovers, not even shot attempts turnovers.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
Yeah, I coaches hard coaches are really most coaches that
I've talked to. In a forty minute basketball game college
basketball game, five turnovers a half is the max that
they want now with the tempo of being sped up,
that may go to six and six and twelve turnovers.
But once you start getting fourteen, eighteen, twenty turnovers in
(05:47):
a game, if you don't get a shot attempt up,
it's kind of a four point four or five point
swing or six point swing because you have the chance
to score two or three every time that you touch
the ball and you don't, and then on the other
end they can get one, two or three, and so
you're gonna have a big swing as well as just
(06:08):
giving up points. You're never gonna have a turnover free game,
I don't think. But those teams that can keep their
turnovers for the game under ten are usually far more
for efficient, and when you get late in games, you
can't turn it over at all if the game is tight.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Yeah, I just I felt bad for Kilvin Sampson, just
the look on his face after the play happened and
the game ended. He just had this look of like
I was so close and we couldn't even get an
attempt up.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
It was just like in shock to a certain extent.
But I felt bad.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Here's something else to keep an eye on, and I
think this is gonna be interesting because last night I
was looking at modern drafts and I looked at five
or six of them, and most of them don't have
a clue what they're talking about. They think the Spurs
are going to draft a point guard when they already
have three and they're all under contract. Well, Chris Paul
can be if he wants to be, So that's not
good to happen. But for what it's worth, the top
(07:03):
sixty players, Walter Clayton Junior was ranked to be picked
between forty and fifty almost every draft now today. Because
of his Final four run and in his tournament run,
they think he's going to be a first round draft pick.
So that may bode well for Walter Clayton because he's
going to be given a guaranteed opportunity to make a team.
(07:26):
He's going to get a guaranteed rookie contract. That's good
for him. He's going to cash in on that. But
my question is if you're if I'm a GM of
a team or owner of a team, or a coach
of a team and trying to figure out whether I'm
gonna draft him or not, what did he do? What
fundamentally is he going to do in the NBA that
(07:48):
I'm going to risk a first round draft pick on him.
If he was forty to fifty two weeks ago, why
is he fifteen to twenty five now? And did his
skill set improve that much? Yeah, you saw him play
above his pay grade for three or four weeks. And
I don't want to take anything away from him because
he had a great tournament. But I don't understand how
it's like now. This worked for Derrick Rose. When Derrick
(08:11):
Rose was going to go into the draft, he was
ranked as like the fifteenth pick in the all the
Mott drafts in February. In March, then he had an
NCAA tournament running became the first pick in the draft,
and it worked out for Chicago. Maybe Walter Clayton works
out for whoever team he's on. But I find it
really interesting that scouts all of a sudden go, well,
(08:31):
we got to take this guy, because if we don't
he turns out to be great, then we look stupid.
Speaker 3 (08:36):
But do you look even.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
Dumber if you take a guy that was projected to
be a project and now you're basically making him part
of your rotation.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Well, but I think that's the one thing with March
Madness that we start to actually pay it or scouts
pay attention to, because that's when we get introduced to
some of these players that maybe we didn't think about.
You know, we all bring up job I mean again,
Jahn Morant for instance.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
A second player picked if if if.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
March Madness doesn't happen because of COVID that year, we
don't know. Maybe we don't know who Ja Morant is.
We were state with Damian Lillard, Davidson, Steph Kirk. There's
all of these players that we get introduced.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
To during the March Madness. You know, you say, well,
what did he do? Andy? You could argue that Florida
Harry was the MVP of the tournament.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah, and didn't, to be honest, didn't have a great
championship game of all of the games.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Yeah, as I said, Martin and him and Davis were
five of twenty five. He was.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
He was three of ten from the field, one of
seven from three point range, finished with eleven points, but
in the tournament averaged twenty two point three points and
shot forty four percent from.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Pre point run.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
He shined the brightest when the lights were the brightest,
and scouts and co just love the fact that they're
not afraid of the spotlight. And here's the other thing.
I think he had seven assists last night. He did
so so what he wasn't scoring in the first half,
he was making sure somebody else did. And that's the
mark of a great teammate, is that when it's as well,
when it's not your night, you make sure it's somebody
(10:17):
else's night. Yeah, and even if it's a championship game,
and even if you want to be the hero, then
you just take a step back and you get other
people involved. I think that is that speaks highly of him.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
You could very well argue as well that Florida had
possibly the hardest run in the tournament, you know, not
counting what was Norfolk State. But they play yukon the
back to back defending champions, You play Maryland who was
a forcee, you played Tech Attech who was a three,
and then you played and you came.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
From behind against all of those teams.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Yeah, and he dropped thirty in both of those Auburn
and Texas Tech games, which I believe I want to
say I saw the other day, which was a stat
He was the first player since Larry Bird to do that.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Well, and Houston last night said Walter Clayton's not going
to beat us. We're not letting him get penetration. We're
not letting him get in the lane, and we're gonna
put a spy on him wherever he goes. And that
worked for thirty two minutes, and then the big Scott
in foul trouble for Houston. All of a sudden, the
lanes open. You give him an inch, he takes a mile,
and he gets his points down the stretch and is
(11:21):
able to propel Florida to a win. Fantastic game last night.
All three games were great. It's always good to see
college basketball have its It's unfortunate we don't watch as
much college basketball in the regular season or pay attention
to it. And I think a lot of the reasons
for that is we know the players aren't going any
aren't going to stick around like they used to with
(11:42):
the Pearl Washington's and the Patrick Ewings and the Chris
Mullins and all those players in the old Big East days,
and Sam Sam Perkins and James Worthy and Michael Jordan
usually stayed around on their sophomore junior years, so he
had some consistency with names and you can talk about
the legacy of school is all you want. Everything is
driven by star power. If you've got stars, people are
(12:05):
going to watch you play. And unfortunately the stars don't
stick around very long because the lucrativeness of the NBA
is awaiting them all right.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
Coming up next, it's Master's.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Week A a couple of thoughts on a past champion
and more importantly, why Augusta is so special and one
of the most important sporting events of the year. We'll
talk about that. Next it's the Andy Everett Show. On

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
