to his happened, j J.If you're crick at my audio, this
is how the game ended last nightfor the Mavericks or yesterday afternoon for the
MAVs. And I have the livecall from both Coop and follow up my
guy, and I think you wouldlike him very much. Uh, we'll

(03:30):
do Coop first because we're the homeof the Dallas Mavericks. Ever MAVs game
here and a regular season in theplayoffs, you can hear on the Freak.
Here is Chuck Cooperstein last yesterday afternoon. Here's Smith second one. Sorry
we by Washington. They had atime out though, but here is Ax
to Luca, Luca back to Axthem right wing free to tie the game

(03:58):
night as the past delivered the goodsagain for the Mavericks. Wow, okay,
hell yes, now follow l andDerek Harper In's skin. Dude.
I got chills when Derek Carper didthis hand off Tonka, Yeah, got

(04:30):
it, got it? I know. I want to hear play on YouTube.
They do like a ten minute recapand I watched it a few hours
after the game last night, andwhen Harp said got it, I was
like he knew it was going inbecause where they are think about the angle
where Exton was. You know,even if you're at an NBA game,
I went, uh, I wentFriday night to the Golden Tate game,

(04:51):
which was freaking awesome too game.But yes, sometimes the way the lines,
you're just right behind him, youcan tell if the left right is
correct. And now that I thinkabout it, where harp sits and where
Exhm was, he was perfectly alive. Play that again. Yes, it

(05:14):
was so good. He went CarlSpoon, He went full Carl Spoon with
the inferno, the sports inferno.What ad that's amazing. I love,

(05:35):
I mean, the excellent thing.And they're right, that dude has been
great. I mean absolute clutch.And I mean I guess I forgot that
he was an Aussie. I meanI look this up a month or two
ago. Forgot that he was atop ten pick, fifth overall and he
was out of the damn NBA forlast. I didn't. I didn't guess.

(05:57):
I didn't know that he was outof the NBA kind of he was
just bound it around. But heplayed for FC Barcelona and PARTISAN Belgrade from
twenty to twenty three. And themaps just say, all right, and
the dude's getting significant time. Andthat's trust, you know. I mean
Luca almost hoisted it from forty orwhatever he was at. Yeah, and
fine, if Luca does it,you're Luca, well I got a problem.
No, we would have been okay, yeah, what he had to

(06:18):
do, we wouldn't have been like, you didn't passes the wide open Dante
ExHAM. ExHAM did this. Itwas a late Friday night against the Kings
a couple of weeks ago, andsome of those big games. He can
also dribble, like a reminder ofseeing Reggie Bullock, who's fun and a

(06:39):
great dude. For Houston. They'relike, oh yeah, he couldn't dribble
like Exhem can actually handle the ball. So you have another guy who can
dribble. You don't even want TimHarley Junior dribbling. He can handle the
ball. He's a two way player, he's got size, he's kind of
crafty around the room. He's notgreat. I'm not like overrating him,
but he can do these kind oflittle tangible things that are like very important

(07:00):
and helpful. When Luca's got tocatch his breath, yes, or Kyrie's
got to catch his breath for aminute. If ExHAM can bring the ball
up here and there. He seemslike a veteran. Yeah he is a
veteran, he's twenty eight, buthe just seems like a calm presence,
Like I'm comfortable with him with theball in his hand. You know,
I was trying to do it acouple weeks ago, and it was a
mindless, stupid discussion about almost likecomparing these parts to the twenty eleven team.

(07:23):
And I regret even doing that.Like the exceit thing I keep coming
back to that was like kind ofeven though he got hurt, was like
Kron Butler, kind of the veteranguy who was there. And maybe it's
different than maybe it's Sean Marian.I don't even know, you know,
maybe it's a little different. Buthe's playing tounch time right now. I
can't stop Luca because I think thisteam can win. I do. I'm

(07:45):
Luca. That team is the fourseed, this team is the five.
I think they can do it.I sounded the red alert two weeks ago.
I know you did red blanking alert. Yeah, lost games, No,
actually kept winning this This team coulddo a ton, maybe all of
it. They're capable of that.It's that good. And they started like

(08:07):
ash yesterday or not down by whattwenty two to twenty three? At one
point it's twenty eight to nine.I know, and I think, and
it might have gotten worse than that, but it's twenty eight to nine.
Yeah, I was going, ohmy god, I got a late start
because a freaking idiot. WrestleMania Nightone. I was watching and I wanted
to be done by two thirty andI wasn't, and I checked my phone.
It was twenty five to six,Like what the hell are you doing?

(08:30):
And they spent the whole day pickingaway at this thing, and every
time they would, like at onepoint, they took like a one point
lead, and then of course Houstongets it back to eight or nine.
They just would not go away.But that's like a whole Another kind of
win is the kind where you spotthem twenty two points or whatever, and
then you have to just chip chipall day. You spend the whole day
behind until you finally get back.You're right, took a baby lead,

(08:54):
then Houston gets it again, andthen you hit the miracle and then you
just smack them in and remind themwho the better team is. Four games
left, they gotta go to Charlottethey have at Miami, but the Suns
are now two games behind them,So the match of the five, they're
two games the Clipper. They're notgonna be able to pass the Clippers.
It would take a miracle. We'recrash coursing towards MAVs Clippers round one once

(09:18):
again. And you know that's fine. It's not who I really wanted in
round one, but that's what we'regonna get most likely, unless the Clippers
just lose their final four games.But I feel like very confident about the
team, like we all do.That was so fun yesterday and what a
great call. Damn any of it. In postgame Kyrie, oh god,

(09:41):
we literally almost didn't say the wordKyrie. Yeah, forty eight, forty
eight. It carried them to thefirst half and then did what Kyrie does
in the fourth quarter. Let meagain. I had to watch the YouTube
recap. Every shot that they showedin the fourth quarter was Kyrie. He

(10:03):
made everything. He was the entireoffense in the fourth quarter. It seemed
yeah, well not quite but almost. If you know you want Kyrie to
have the ball, do whatever youwant, especially fourth quarter Kai and you
hear the stat of the free throws. Think it's what ninety seven out of
one o two now since he's beena maverick. I think it because follow

(10:26):
up noted it at ninety five outof one hundred free throws made in the
fourth quarter since he's been a mapand I think you may have made two
more, like I think he mayhave supplanted Dirk. If my life's on
the line, I need a manto stand up there and make one free
throw, live or die. Okay, it's gonna be Dirk still today,

(10:46):
but then it'll be Kyrie. Youjust know what's going in and it's something
about that maturity and calmness. Imean, that's like the moment, there's
nothing else going on. This isclearly what I'm gonna do, and I
do it every damn time. He'ssuch a pleasure. He had forty eight
and Luca knows stats, and thelast ten seconds there's a little move and
Luca laid it in and he couldhave looped it to Kai, who had

(11:09):
had to put it in to gethis fifty. And I'm like, no,
dude, what I think he mighthave thought, Luke, He might
have thought Carry would have just dribbledit out because they didn't. I mean,
they had to get thrown up ashot, but yeah, I know,
but it was so close. Ithink Kay, the responsible thing would
have been laid in, and Ialmost think that beautiful embrace. I think

(11:30):
Luca may have like made the bucketand been like, oh, I'm sorry,
I'm sorry. That's and then Kay'slike, I don't care. I
don't care any sad care of butscoring fifty in the NBA is is significant.
That's something that at the end ofyour career like, yeah, he
did it seven times or whatever itis. Yeah, and he could have
done it really easy. So almostlike the beginning of that embrace was Luca
said, Oh my bad, dude, I just laid it in. What

(11:52):
did Luca end up with? Thirtyfive? Thirty five and twelve and nine?
Like every time he doesn't get atriple double it by one? Yeah,
one hair away. Okay, Acouple things here, because on the
free throw thing, Jabari Smith,an eighty three percent free throw shooter,
misses two. You needed to missboth and he did, so you got
lucky there and we all but whatever, then you gotta go. You're exhausted,

(12:18):
you're happy to be there, you'reat home. You have the momentum,
do you think you're probably like whenif you believe in that type of
thing. PJ Washington two threes fromthe corner, just knocking them in like
make it not even close. Didn'thave a chance. And that play Luca
made dribbling the ball, I meanjust it almost looked like he was kicking
it, almost like soccer, dribblingit through the lane and then exhausted jumping

(12:43):
in mid air making the pass.I mean that's MVP type stuff, dude.
And then yeah, PJ drained,PJ starting to shoot the ball.
Well, I mean, I knowwe're all hard on Maxi. MAXI missed
a wide up and three. Itwas huge. MAXI made a huge stop
there too. At the end.You had a couple of them like that
was big. And that's why he'sgonna play. I actually will get big

(13:03):
crunch time minutes because he can movehis body and stay in front of some
dudes, and just like last year, he'll make some huge three Like he
doesn't want to shoot right now,which is kind of weird. It's crazy,
you know, because he can shoot, it'll happen. He just keeps
giving it up. And then theone yesterday he had to and he didn't
make it, but yes, hemore than makes up for that defensively with

(13:24):
big stock two of them the fourthquarter. Now, when I went to
bed last night, the Stars werelosing to the Avalanche one to nothing.
When I woke up this morning,the Stars beat the Avalanche seven to four.
The un step about that is theAvalanche of the other best team in
the Western Conference. The Stars areabsolute Cup contenders, and they went again.
Good job. Stars. Rangers playedthe Astros. The Rangers one Friday

(13:46):
night and one Saturday night easy,and then last night against the Astros.
They played Ronel Blanco, the guywho threw the no hitter for the Astros
last week, and he had ano hitter going into the sixth nitting until
a Duley scat a single oh.Rangers ended up losing three to one.
Alvarez hit a home run early,Rangers had two hits Adolis and then justin

(14:07):
Fosk you got his first major leaguehit. They will play it a night
at seven to go for the serieswin, or the Astros could win it
and tie it. But they hadEvan Carter miked up on Sunday Night Baseball,
all right, say something real quick. Kevin's you can't win the Silver
Boot this early in the season,but you sure can lose it. So

(14:30):
there's enough games where you wouldn't loseit. Even if you I don't think
you can lose it. You can'tlose it. Yeah, they wait till
the season's over. I'm talking aboutthe boot, guys, when you can
neither win it now that I lookat it. Hold on, he was
talking about the boot, I miss, I misunderstood. What'd you think it
was the gold Glove? Yeah,I was a Silver Slugger award. Turns

(14:50):
out Danny was correct. You tellabout the boot. You can lose on
April eighth, the Silver Boot.More stuff about this. They should have
played this game daytime and stopped thegame for the eclipse. Somebody, what's
the MLB schedule? Somebody's got agame going right now or during the game?

(15:11):
Right it best be? But arethey in the path of totality?
No, No one's in the path. Just to us in Cleveland, in
Buffalo, the Guardians play today.Well no, yeah, they're calling off
because they're they're they're cy young candidate. Pitcher has having to have Tommy John
so they're gonna they canceled their season. Okay, so they can't win the

(15:33):
silver. Yeah, there's no game. It's an eclipse. Uh, it's
a baseball free Eclipse day until tonight. Okay, So Evan Carter's backed up.
Now at nine o'clock, I'm gonnaplay you Max Scherzer micd up because
he they had the expectation that he'sjust gonna join him as a color guy,

(15:54):
and he's like, nope, it'sso awkward. We'll get to that
at nine. Here's Evan Carr.Uh, you know, just kind of
working. You mean, let's let'slet's break the ice with Devin Carter here,
he's out in left field. What'sbetter Tennessee barbecue or Texas barbecue?
Gosh, it's they're two. They'retwo really different things. But I I've
had Memphis barbecue a couple of times, and I really really like Memphis barbecue,

(16:15):
So I gotta say Tennessee you please. Crap. He's like the nicest
little boy. You can't say thatthough. It's not of a bitch.
It's like a trick question that youknow you're gonna get just way. Hey,
Texas is better at everything. Alwayssay that, now, did ya?
Can't serve you better his verbal crutchfrom last year. I remember the

(16:37):
postseason run, was it, Golly, what's better Tennessee barbecue or Texas barbecue?
Gosh, it's gosh, Golly wouldbe awesome. You got like eight
gosh is in Uh? He wasgoing if he wasn't a baseball player,
he would be a dentist. Iwas really interested in all the dental stuff

(16:59):
in high school. Well, wedid a program, I guess in school
where you could go shadow people intheir professions and I, you know,
shadowed at Nindo Donnas for about ayear and I loved it. So that
was kind of what I was goingto try and pursue. Wow, didn't
shadow a big leader? Did you? Three O to L two van where
the count reset? I wish wehad that sometimes. Yeah in the show.

(17:22):
Yeah, And I set them upwith doctor Ted. Work under Doctor
Ted for a little bit. Absolutelygive me a real world of dentistry.
This I did think was interesting onbecause they did the ballpark open Saturday and
last night. How different is itplaying in this ballpark with the roof open.
It's literally like two different ballparks.It's kind of wild how different fly

(17:45):
balls look, how different pitches.Look, it's it's kind of it's kind
of crazy. I mean it looksway bigger in here. I feel like
when the roof's open too. Ilike that in games sound running into a
garage. Ok, perhaps he piecegot knocked out here playing there now.

(18:07):
The Shuser stuff is garage door fullthroat. It sounds like two full stride.
The Max Shuser stuff is nuts.And that's at nine. They just

(18:33):
they had to be going. Ithought he knew he was supposed to talk
more like it's really awkward. Nineo'clock will play some of that for you.
That'd be fun awesome. We're stilltrying to get Carrie on TV here,
Caro, I don't think he's thereyet. Is he down there for
Jesus? Headed down to Clyde WarrenPark where Fox four is doing a lot
of hits. We're gonna try toget him just kind of in the background,

(18:53):
lighting up a cigarette so that couldbe funs no smoking at Clyde Warren
Park. Kevin Danny has huge countrymusic news. At eight point thirty eight
o'clock, we go a little bitdeeper. Eclipse a celestial phenomenon, but
