No, I'm sorry, all right, all right, here we go,
let's go some more NBA, and of course Detroit deadline

Speaker 4 (03:17):
Yeah, like sixteen seventeen hours away something like that.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
Yep, So KD, as do we have salno KD or
this is just rob g Let's let's go to news today.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
You can talk about it real quick.
Speaker 6 (03:27):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:28):
So, as mark Stein reported last hour, it was been
reported all throughout the day that the Golden State Warriors
have been trying to get this reunion going with Kevin Durant.
They ain't playing, they were forty eight hours or so,
and they've really been hot to trot anything they can
to get KD back to the Bay. The only problem
is KD doesn't want to go back to the Bay,
(03:48):
and according to mark Stein and others, KD put the
word out very firmly, says I am not interested in
a reunion with Steph Curry and Golden State. And as
a result, according to The Athletic Now Golden State, I said,
all right, you don't want to come here, We're gonna
stop the pursuit.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Good luck and good fortune. Can I say this.
Speaker 6 (04:09):
To KD.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
I'm serious.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
First, I don't want another I'm not changing uniforms again,
like like this is a for a great player, he's
been all over the place number two to disrespect by
the Warriors to him, Rob G when they open you
could google and see if you can find a story.
When they did the video for the new Chase Center,
he was not included.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
He was a two time Finals MVP. That's petty.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
How in the world could you exclude him when talking
about the Warriors and their history. I'm sorry, I don't
care how he left, whatever you're mad or whatever it is.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
He deserved better than that. And you remember their general manager.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Who's not there anymore, I think, right, Bob ber who
joked about him being yes, and you know this, Steph
and everybody else there, Draymond and all that. The legacies
wouldn't be the same without KD.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
It would be.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
They won that championship when Kevin Love and Kyrie.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Irving were hoard and they still got took the game
six and headed.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Right and they choked down the biggest h advantage. They
were up three to one right against the Cavaliers, and
they choked that down. No team in NBA history had
ever choked down a three to one finals advantage.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
And there were seventy two right and ten.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Three and nine Because they beat the record Jordan them
was seventy two and ten and they had not lost
more than two in a row at all at any
point in the season. They lost three in a row,
including two games at home and game seven at home.
There was a choke job and this is the and
now they won Kevin dur because they were in They're
(06:02):
a bad team. I mean they're a bad team and
they want him to come again with a Superman cape
and bail them out.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
I'm glad. KD said, hell no, I'm not interested. This
is crazy. Rob Let me.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
First of all, there's a lot I've been, you know,
preparing for the shows writing down.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
First of all, let me add one more point for you.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Steph Curry was the back to back MVP when that happened.
Meaning if you're an MVP, how you losing and you
up three to one?
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Right right?
Speaker 1 (06:29):
If you're the MVP, oh man dre minds out game five, Okay,
the MVP can win me one more.
Speaker 4 (06:35):
The only do is win one and one in a
way at home.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
And that is why Steph Curry's won long time greats.
But I will say he gets the skategoat that no
other great like. People say he he's the top five,
he's okay with nobody else. It's the skategoat like he does.
Let me also add some things you talked about it.
He already wrote this down before you said. It help
their legacies too. The reason I say that is you
(06:58):
brought it up. They win one nice championship, they beat him,
it to them all. Then they lose three to one
and Draymond is begging, begging, begging you like the song
he is co please. Because they knew they never had
an answer for Lebron. Even when they beat they weren't
going to be no answer for Kyrie. Kyrie was going
crazy on them, putting them forty average third. He's putting
(07:20):
up crazy buckets on them. They had no answer, and
they knew good and well, oh they have our number.
Speaker 4 (07:26):
Now we took They barely beat him the.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
Year before the too, with the six games, and they
had to earn almost lose game six. We took him
this they beat us in seven at all at home.
They had no and we got the back to back
reigning MVP. They had no answer. So as much as
people like to say, man KD, those are steps rings no.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
No, no, no, no no health.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Each other's legacies because the whole watch this. Rob KD
doesn't go there. Let's say the next year they don't
make the finals. Let's just say they make it Western Corp.
But they don't make it to the finals. They say
the next year, maybe maybe they make it the finals,
but they lose to the Cavs again because Kyrie and
Lebron say together, well, they might blow that team up,
and they never get the one they won a couple
of years ago.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
Was at the way again and they might say, this
ain't working. We got to get rid of this, but
it wasn't.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
He came and at Stephremond and and uh Clay Thompson.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
Now it would be a totally different.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Dialogue about the war and Bob Myers you mentioned talking about,
Oh Steph has been here, he's a war, he's his
whole life man, he just got here.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
The disrespect is crazy for a man that helped you.
And it makes no sense because that's supposed to be
their whole culture, right team over everything is all of us.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Steph is giving up here and they're trying to make
it like they were saying it in jest.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
That had something that cut.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
And Draymond calling him a B word and we want
without you.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
We can win without that day after you begged him
to come ye.
Speaker 1 (08:46):
And last point for me too is the comeback in
desperation like don't come back, and it's like if you're
in relationships, some chick dropped you know, I just moved on.
You know I don't want to this is this ain't working.
I can do I was doing better before you, I
can do better after you. All that, and if shit
come calling you back, believe me, please, I'll do anything
(09:07):
you hold on whoaa whoa.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
I'm good.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
And I think Kad has an opportunity to tell his
own story, whether it works out or not. If he
wins with Phoenix randomly let's say this year. Let's say
he wins next year, or he goes somewhere else and
he wins in the next few years, he can at
least say for all the haters, check it out the box.
I did win one on my own or not on
my own. You never went on your but without the Warriors.
That's my point. I'm glad he said. No, I'm good, bro,
(09:32):
I'm good. He because the way they did him, they
said the stuff they said, and then they're trying to
double back and be desperate.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
That's crazy to me.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
That's actually like, I'm shot they would even consider that
the way they treated him.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Yeah, I'm with you. I don't.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I don't get it. It weeks of desperation on the
tip finals MVP. He wouldn't like bear this there for
the ride. Yeah, I don't. I don't understand it. Uh,
why they're feeling this way? Step one four. We want
to say anybody want to say about the championships as
Lebron did in this era.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I'm serious, Like what are they desperate about? I don't mind,
no mind to win still, but why do they look desperate?
Speaker 4 (10:13):
KD is desperate.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
That's not like we're gonna try to go for jim Hey,
Jimmy wants Hey, let's see what we can do with
him going going to the KD. Well, when you disrespected
the man, when you acted like he was an outsider,
when you didn't include him, Am I right about that video?
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Or you know you're right? He was not tribute video,
He was not an IDEO. Judeo won you back to
back and.
Speaker 4 (10:36):
It was coming off a champions Why, yep, that doesn't
make an he was a m v P. How do
you gon keep the m v P out that that
that was so petty.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
Whoever was m v P chaltter that when they put
that together, like they're putting all the run d Run
TMC and all those in there.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
They didn't win anything, right, I can't. Yeah, they put
them in there. We believe Matt Barnes.
Speaker 3 (10:59):
Yes, but but the guy who won you to the championship,
now now you don't want him?
Speaker 4 (11:05):
Who do you?
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Who want it? That's crazy. I don't even remember. That's
that's absolutely wild to me. So again it ain't for
him to go No, absolutely I wouldn't. I wouldn't sign
there this you know, this this time around right now.
Speaker 4 (11:17):
And then they'd be like, oh dang, okay.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Like what like what this like rob g you got children?
Your child knows getting well, you told them no more
oreoles than they cannot have another oriole Like now you
can't okay, Like I'm confused that they how they thought
this would work and are kind of just like, oh dang,
he don't want to play with us. By the way,
I know the eagles are here, but we got tony
birds flying around in the and the and the We

Speaker 7 (14:06):
You guys were just discussing that Kevin Duran did not
want to go to the Golden State Warriors. Well, Shams
of ESPN just tweeted that the Heat are finalizing a
deal to send Jimmy Butler to the Golden State Warriors
for Andrew Wiggins, Dennis Shrewder, Kyle Anderson, and a protected
first round pick.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
All right, there we go.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
The Warriors got their man because they couldn't get the
man that they wanted. Yeah, eight seven, seven ninety nine
on Fox, we want to hear from you. Did Kad
do the right thing? Because he could have gone if
they would have said, yes, did he do the right thing?
And instead they went and got Jimmy Butler. Let's do that.
Let's start with show Rye in Washington, DC. You're in
(14:49):
the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 8 (14:52):
My man, bro Park, you got the thing right this time.
I appreciate I.
Speaker 4 (14:55):
Got it right. There we go. What's up? What's up?
Speaker 9 (14:57):
So all right, man, what's going on till Hey, look,
I'm disappointed in both yallo, I'm be honest with you. Okay,
you sit there and say that, oh, like the KD
thing was that big of a deal, like.
Speaker 8 (15:09):
They needed to get him back and put an interest
on that. I find that funny because when you think
about what they did before and after, right, y'all said, oh,
they're not have blown it up if Kate didn't come
along and save the day, Like, no, no, they wouldn't.
That's not how they moved y'all. See how they're moving now.
They couldn't find pieces. They would have found somebody else.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
No, they wouldn't have found anybody someone else, like right, come.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
On and let's show right, right, let's get this straight.
KD was the finals MVP those two years. He made
those shots over Lebron and the.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
Stop it.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Don't act like he didn't do anything. I'm buying that
stop stopping k You wouldn't. You wouldn't even look at.
Speaker 8 (15:49):
I'm not saying that.
Speaker 4 (15:50):
You wouldn't even look at You wouldn't even look at KDS.
Speaker 3 (15:53):
I mean that at Steph's legacy the same way if
he didn't win those two championships.
Speaker 4 (15:57):
Stop.
Speaker 8 (15:57):
No, no, I agree with that par We wouldn't at
Legy the same way. But look at Kevin Durant' legacy.
He gained way more by going there because what has
he done since leaving? All go ahead.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
It doesn't matter.
Speaker 8 (16:11):
That the issue.
Speaker 1 (16:13):
The issue isn't that nobody's denying we we said, I said,
I wrote it down and helped their legacies help both
Steph and Katie's. But people act as if he wasn't
the best player on the team. People act like he
didn't win those MVPs, and people like, oh, he's.
Speaker 4 (16:25):
Lucky to be and and and the other.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
And the other thing is people have went when uh
Kiwie and Harden got hurt in that.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
Milwaukee Bucks series. You remember he almost had the game
winners that on the line. He was big, That would that.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
Would have been They would have gone to the finals
that year and he was on the line. He didn't go,
And then all the injuries, all the other things that
piled up in Brooklyn. But don't make it like he
ain't a great player and he wasn't on the verge.
Speaker 4 (16:52):
That's the year that the Bucks won.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
Yeah, all right, we appreciate you.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
You yep. How about Dion in Texas. What's up? You're
in the couple of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 10 (17:02):
Hey guys, face taking a call A No, you guys
are both spot on. Katie saved his own legacy by
going to go to State and he's sure it's hacked Curry.
He saved Curry's legacy. Curry, I mean we would look
at either one of them the same. And yes, Kevin
Durant for the longest was like the second best player
in the NBA. Yes, definitely far greater than Curry, and
(17:26):
he definitely saved his legacy.
Speaker 11 (17:28):
And last and at.
Speaker 10 (17:29):
Least Rob before you were founding man, I called what
you were doing loser talk. Kansas City cheese until somebody
beat them, they're the best team and no, no, no.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
They were not the best team.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
They were not the No, they were not the best
team last year, and they were not the best team
during the season. Botmore was no, no, no, I'm talking
about during the season. They were not even though they
were fifteen and two, nobody thought they were the best
team in the league.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
I'm sorry that does sound crazy. This is about to
be their third possible championship. You kind of a right,
So just off the champions like you can't. That's you
gotta be the champ. You gotta be jd on.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Wait till Sunday, all right, hed me back on Monday.
Let me see you later.
Speaker 8 (18:08):
Nothing but.
Speaker 1 (18:10):

How you feeling, man, I'm feeling good man. Look, we
were well.
Speaker 14 (24:36):
First of all, had a chance to meet you last
at the at the at the media party place.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
Which was really nice. Five oh man, we talk about that.
Speaker 3 (24:43):
Yeah, platforms and bands and djere right.
Speaker 14 (24:47):
Yeah, yeah, master P actually showed up and yeah I
didn't see matthe master P.
Speaker 6 (24:53):
He Well you all might have left, but he showed up.
Speaker 4 (24:56):
We stayed up. We stayed till pretty much the end.
Speaker 3 (24:58):
Yeah, you know what, I didn't see him pull up
and open his trunk and yeah, I got to hook up.
Speaker 4 (25:05):
Three came through the party. What you mean.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
I don't think it was the real master Be. It
might have been massed to see or something. It wasn't
master it.
Speaker 14 (25:12):
But but no, this week has been well, you know,
I decided this week I'm not going to burn myself
out of doing interviews from eight to five. I want
to just make sure, you know, I do the interviews
that I want to do, get a chance to hit
some of the some of these press consents up. I
finally did the nfl p A for the first time
since I've been, you know, coming to Radio Row. So
that was a that was a different experience from the commissioner.
(25:32):
So yeah, it was.
Speaker 6 (25:33):
It was good.
Speaker 14 (25:33):
So I've had a good time so far this week.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
All right, so let's get into this game.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
And so much of the narrative has been and you
being obviously in Kansas City.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
He covers all the game, over all the games.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
The big thing we've had Travis Kelsey talk about it.
He's like, why are y'all leaning into this narrative that
the refs are helping us and the refs are making it?
Speaker 4 (25:51):
You know that they're like on our team, if you will.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
So much so in the NFL and the ref the
Association had to come out and be like, hey, that's
not the case.
Speaker 4 (25:59):
That's heard of.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
I've never seen that and from any any league, any league.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
So with that, I mean, you being connected with you know,
the team, the city, how do you respond to that
everybody saying, oh man, we're playing against the chiefs and
the refs.
Speaker 14 (26:14):
You know what, I'm gonna be quite I think the
biggest issue when it comes to the refs and this
whole do with the Chiefs, I think it's more of
a gambling issue where where you know, where people are
being on the games and they feel like, okay, this
first down is keeping it is keeping the draft from extending.
So I think that's where a lot of it is
coming from. Now, granted there are obviously.
Speaker 4 (26:32):
Can I give you some numbers real quick.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Okay, this is since twenty twenty one, twenty twenty one
playoffs since then, Yeah, penalties Chiefs forty one, opponents seventy
two penalty yards three forty Chiefs.
Speaker 4 (26:47):
Five eighty nine opponents.
Speaker 3 (26:50):
More penalties, right, more penalties in the game chiefs zero,
opponents eleven and the last one more penalty yards. Only
one time did the Chiefs have more penalty yards eleven
times the opponent did. So these are the numbers, and
I do believe that they that's why the union fell
(27:11):
compelled because and you're right about the gambling aspect. People
watch the games much more closely now because they have
money on it.
Speaker 14 (27:20):
And look, and I've I've told Robbed this before. She said,
But but I gamble on the games, you know what
I mean, Like, and it depends on the state citor.
Speaker 4 (27:29):
I'm gonna call a commissioner.
Speaker 14 (27:30):
Yeah, you know, no, but seriously, to depend on the
state of the rent. I've been on the game in
the press box. Now again, I don't I don't you know,
I don't address with the players. I've never like, hey,
I need you to do this, do that?
Speaker 6 (27:41):
No, I hope not. No.
Speaker 14 (27:43):
Well no, first of all, I've already told the chief
you don't worry about to happen. I'm a man of
my word. I've never addressed that, like I knew you
could have got this. No, I don't do that. So
you know, what I do is what I do, and
so so I get what the fans. But here's the
flip side is the Chiefs are world coach, you know,
and and so they don't they don't beat themselves and
(28:03):
they don't put themselves.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
Yeah, but they're so lopsided. And I get that.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
It's so it's eleven to zero, it's lotful.
Speaker 4 (28:10):
Well can you can you admit that?
Speaker 6 (28:13):
I can admit that. But here's the thing.
Speaker 14 (28:14):
You know, those numbers of pillaries would actually would be
low for the Chiefs if you didn't have a player
like Jawan Taylor, you know, who would false start line
up all sides.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Yeah, but the one that got people was the one
where the two defenders hit each other and Patrick Mahomes,
you know what I mean, like like it's stuff like
that head. I mean that was not that the two
defenders got the brunt of it. Well you know they
they dove in. But what I'm saying Patrick did get
hit in the head on their plate. Now, you know
(28:44):
you often have to see the slow mold. But but
but at bang bang speed, you're gonna err on the
side of the quarterback get into because one of those
players I think was involved and it could have been
a Houston game, but one of those one of those
players was involved in knocking out the the uh the
quarterback for Jon Jacksonville Jaguars.
Speaker 14 (29:03):
Uh now. And so look in the playoffs, you might
want the chief suits, but you don't want but but
you don't want Patrick Mahomes getting Nobody wants him to
be injured.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
And let's just speak about Patrick Mahomes in the last
two years. This year, I still think you go fifteen
and two. The quarterbacks not in the mix for Pro Bowl,
not in the mix it you know what MVP, it
is unusual. Would you acknowledge that that that it's surprised.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
If you look at the NFC version of that. Jared
golf was at least being mentioned.
Speaker 14 (29:36):
Right, Look, you know you have to convince men. I mean,
they're fifteen to two and you don't have players outside
of Andy Reid that's even up for an award this week.
So yeah, it's uh, I mean, it's a crime. But
here's the thing. Brett Veach is someone you know as
a general manager who's never been up for Executive of
the Year. I mean, and and look at if you
look back two years ago, everybody that that they drafted
(29:57):
has contributed greatly to you know, to the team successful
for the last two seasons and of course last year
as well.
Speaker 6 (30:03):
So no, I'm with you.
Speaker 4 (30:04):
I mean, you know what's different.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
I know he doesn't have all the weapons or whatever,
but he just doesn't seem to be nobody there. Nobody's
asking him to throw fifty touchdowns. That's not I'm not
even talking about that. But when you watch, it doesn't
feel the same.
Speaker 6 (30:18):
Here's the thing, And I have you watch every day.
Speaker 3 (30:22):
I watched the highlights, and I watched when they're on
the national game.
Speaker 4 (30:25):
I don't watch everything. Now, Okay, I'm not gonna sit
there and act like I do.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
Here's a big.
Speaker 14 (30:30):
Difference in the off season because they were looking to
address all those drafts of stuff that took place last year.
They signed Hollywood. Obviously, we saw Rashi Rights there and
you know, we saw she Rights, uh you know, step
up in the playoffs, and they drafted Exavity Worthy. So
that was gonna be the you know, their their first
team offense, including they have a check on of course,
Travis Kelcey. Well, the very first playing preseason, Hollywood Brown
(30:53):
goes down. They had to bring in Juju who was
cut from the from the Patriots, bring him back. And
then two week two in the NFL, Patrick Mahomes takes
out Rashid Ris' trying to recover fumble and then him
for the rest of the season. And and so I
think it took a couple of weeks and they ended
up trading for DeAndre Hopkins getting him in. And then
Isaiah Pachi was on k but he wasn't right. Yeah,
(31:13):
but I'm saying but but but but it was still
an adequate body, you know. And then then of course
Isaiah Pacheco went down and they brought Kareem Hunt in
off the couch. Kareem Hunt, that's a that's redemption story
within itself obviously from a lot of us who know
what took place in twenty eighteen for him to get
back and they had this second chance in Kansas City.
(31:34):
But you look at that Patrickson, so Patrick and not
having the the the offense going into the season that
he was expecting to have, the offense was gonna look differently.
So now you've got a piece mill stuff together, and
and and along the way, the Chiefs lose uh Jalen
Watson on the on the defensive side as a quarterback,
and that that took bags as defensive system just out
(31:55):
of the way because he was one of those lockdown corners.
So you get them back, you get him back. They
don't know the season a long with trum a mini
Hue plus the offense starts to click a little bit.
But then you're bringing back Hollywood Brown early Holly, you
know any of the team. Hollywood Brown's out for the year. Yeah,
but he comes back.
Speaker 4 (32:09):
You because they got that making a Super Bowl run.
Speaker 14 (32:11):
Yeah, he's back in the He's back. And then of
course you bring the chuckle backs. So now you've got
the offense on steroids now because you've got you got
well known players that are back.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
In his office. They had they had the opposite of
what the lions. Lions, all their guys are out the
end of the season out. These guys are her early
came back. All right, we got less in a minute.
So yeah, I mean we let mean, what's the score.
The Chiefs are winning. What's the score. We already know
you're gonna pick him. Thirty five thirty one, all right,
so high scoring game? Yeah, oh yeah, thirty five thirty one.
