Speaker 2 (03:28):
To man talk.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Got a conversation there and uh no you did not
we did.
Speaker 2 (03:34):
I was like, wait, I was there. I don't remember this.
We talked, We talked. It was at the hotel, not
at the that he saw me. We talked for a while, a.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
While, settle down on the a while we talked. You said, hey, hey,
what's up?
Speaker 2 (03:47):
All right? Good to see you. Is that a while? Yeah?
That's why, right and wild That's what it is. All
I want to know.
Speaker 5 (03:54):
Was a former NFL player at the bar when you
had that?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
That person still was there? All right?
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Wait, hold on, still there, still down there there right now,
gos Man, my dog?
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Hell, who could they be talking about. I'm just trying
to fill a lot of former athletes. My dog was
having a ball. Does he have a radio show? I'm
just asked.
Speaker 6 (04:14):
I don't know, I know about a podcast. There's a
bunch of people up there, all right, a good time?
All right, rob, So you've got enough trouble, okay, All right,
here we go. You mentioned the Niners. There is a
roster purge going on right now in San Francisco. Just
to give you an idea as to what's going on
right now in San Francisco. The Niners have now lost
eleven starters and ten backups from their Super Bowl team
(04:37):
of two years ago, including All Pro cornerback of Various Ward,
All Pro safety Till Nooah Hufanga, Pro Bowl caliber linebacker
Dre Greenlaw, Pro Bowl fullback Kyle used Check, Pro Bowl
defensive tackle Javon Hargrave, and they're trading away All Pro
wide receiver Deebo Samuel. All of this because, according to
(05:00):
Warts coming out of the Bay, the Niners are rearranging
both their offensive schematic structure and their overall roster to
reflect the shift to Brock Purty as the centerpiece of the.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Team, and the forty nine ers continue for me to
believe that they don't know what they're doing. Can you
give me the other quarterback who they traded up to get?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
No, Trey Lance? Uh? Trey Lance? Is he still with
the team. I'm just curious. Did Ray vanished? Didn't Trey vanish?
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Is more like, yeah, very good. But do you remember
that move for Trey Lance? How long did that work out?
Let's give the guy like three starts, rob g Did
he get five starts in the NFL?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Or three like he got hurt, but he got like
three stars. Yep.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
And now brock perty who we got to watch last
year without all the bells and whistles, struggle, He struggled.
Did he look like the same quarterback to you without
all his weapons?
Speaker 2 (06:04):
They'm about to get to a point of that.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
Yeah, I don't understand this. I really don't like. Brock
Purty with the right pieces around him, can be a
really good quarterback, and we've seen that. But the great
ones are the really good ones, are the ones who
still can get it done when you don't have everybody where.
It doesn't have to be perfect. Gotta have a running game,
(06:27):
gotta have this, gotta have a wide receiver.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Mar and Josh prove that Patrick Mahomes two. But those
two particular where lastly, not twenty twenty four, but twenty
twenty three, Lamar lost all his running backs. That's what
I'm saying, the entire fleet of running backs and still
got steal balled out and got.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
To the AFC Championship game. Was an MVP, And this
is what I'm talking about. And I just the eye
test for me, and I get what he did. And
the forty nine ers went to two Super Bowls of
late right, and now here they are dismantling the team
because they got to pay Brock party, mister irrelevant and
(07:03):
all this stuff. I don't know how to expect to win.
I really don't. I'm shocked by this. I think this
is a mistake and this is the beginning of the
end for the forty nine ers and this window and
this run they had because they had a team, they
had a squad. You could put almost any quarterback in
there and they could have won, right And if it
(07:25):
wasn't for some bad coaching, they might have one.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
They might have one.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
They choked down two fourth quarter leads in two Super bowls, right.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Yeah, y up ten yeah with the Chiefs.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
So what they're doing to me is a hard reset
and they're setting everything up based around Brock, which if
your Brock, you have to be thrilled in that. Yeah,
we're losing some pieces here on both sides of the
BALLUS know, Deebo Samuel obviously gone as well. But one
of the things you have to love is that they're
knowledging we are not to get all super inside football,
(08:03):
but they're changing the system. They want to go more
spread offense, they want to go deeper down the field
than they have been historically. They want to get back
to that, and they want to get back to I
think rob wh they're saying twenty twenty three was the
best version of Brock, where he was on the tops
in pretty much all all the back passing categories, you know,
nine point six yards in a tempt his QBR was
(08:25):
seventy two point eighty was fourth, and completions percentage of
sixty nine point four.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
That MVP candidate.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
That's the Brock Party, they believe, is that's the Brock
we can have when we're healthy, when we have the
right guys around him. They've kept enough pieces around him.
Christian mccaffrees, he's healthy. They still got kittled.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
He ain't to said. They still got Ayu.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
They still got enough pieces around they still got some
offensive line studs there.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
For another year or two. They've kept enough around him.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Well, they can say, all right, let's go out and
do what they have done well outside of the Trey lance.
But they've drafted some really good players, so let's go
out there find some players. They got a bunch of
cap money now and over the next year, this year,
upcoming year, twenty twenty five and twenty twenty six will
find some players. And I think they believe with Brock
being so young, and I think it's what twenty five.
(09:11):
I think they believe they can make a run, steal
and have you know, another five six year run. And
the crazy thing is the money they're talking about. They
reports are it was around forty five million a year,
and then they had to go back to the negotiating
table because apparently the reports are saying some people thought
the Brox team thought that was disrespectful, so it could
get up to a round fifty five, which again is
(09:33):
some big time money. But that just says that they're
ready to lock in. This is our guy. Let's move
forward for the next five seven years. And they believe
their window will be open once they make some changes.
And I give them credit for making changes and kind
of pressing the reset instead of keep trying, keep trying,
keep trying, and maybe you're not getting the best of
Brock because you haven't adjusted, you haven't moved on, and
(09:54):
you haven't tried something differently. They're saying, let's reset, keep
some pieces. We've got the main stays, we got kittled,
we got McCaffrey, we got, we got some again offensive
line play, we got some defensive players.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
We hung out with one of the defensive players. Think
this is the same team.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
No, I'm saying they got the stars, steal a line
that they can plug and play, and I think they
believe their system. To your point, we got Jimmy g there,
we got Brock there, and I think they believe in
their system and the way in which they're running the organization.
That few pieces here lockame with Brock given the big bag,
and we'll be right back at.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
It in the year. Yeah, I totally disagree.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
I think that this is a situation where Brock didn't
make you feel the same way after last year. If
this was the year before when he was up for
like the MVP going into the last that Christmas Day
game and Lamar balled out and basically won the MVP year,
maybe I feel differently. But watching him last year, he
(10:51):
was more pedestrian, more ordinary to me.
Speaker 7 (10:54):
More.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
I'm not saying mister irrelevant, but the middle of a
pack quarterback was his touchdounds rob g and he was
twenty an interception.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
I think he had twenty, Yeah, twenty touchdowns, twelve interceptions.
Speaker 4 (11:07):
Yeah, I mean that's not impressible. Matthew Stafford at twenty
and eight, he had twenty and twelve.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Yeah, twenty and twelve didn't look his best. He lost
a lot of obviously, the whole lineup was in and out,
and he lost christ McCaffer and he's definitely not quite
the same without Christi mccaff We talk about.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
That like like that, that's what makes you an elite
quarterback and not everybody can do it.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
And I guess that you led me to where I
was gonna go. Now, maybe they don't view him as
he has to be those top five. He doesn't have
to Patrick Lamar, Josh you know, if you want to
say Jalen and Joe Burrow, like right, if you're putting
him right up in there, maybe he doesn't have to
be that. But when we do our job and we
provide him the offensive guys we need, we're changing up
the schematics. Kyle Shanahan is supposed to be a you know,
(11:48):
offensive genius, and we've still got some solid defensive players
that they feel we'll be right back at this thing.
He doesn't have to be that guy. Where do you
place him with Jared Goff better, worse, equal on par
Jared Goff is better than him. Okay, Jared Goff, you know,
(12:08):
had a potential, not this season, obviously they lost earlier,
but last season to get there, brock Purty out played him.
I think he's I think that if he's done enough
for them to say he's a top quarterback, not the
top five.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Nobody thinks that.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
They're not crazy, but he's one of the better quarterbacks
that when he has the pieces, knows our system.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
We're gonna revamp the system some We'll be fine because again.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
Everybody can't have Patrick Mahomes, rob or Lamar Jackson or
Josh Allen.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
You know what I mean. There's there was a literally
special guy. I gotta be I gotta be honest going forward.
Rock Perty's not winning.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
A Super Bowl, especially with a cut rate forty nine
ers team that's that scared they believe.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
I think they're just starting over, Like I don't think
they think they're gonna be cut rate like Seattle or
it's like, well what the heck are they doing?
Speaker 4 (12:54):
Okay, so so so in the NFC where it is
now or whatnot? With the Bears getting better with the
I'm just giving you all the teams that the vikings
are still there. You got to give me some more definitives.
If you've got to give me some why the forty
nine ers didn't make the playoffs last year.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
What I'm saying because the teams are computer that you're saying,
but they didn't go to like the Eagles. Okay, that's obvious.
Those two teams are obvious to me. I'm trying to
go out. I'm trying to tell you, well, that team's
not making the playoffs next year.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
So I'm trying to tell you about the other team.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
I'm telling you theon the Chicago Bear.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
So let's double up the Wings. So I already got
the Wings that we got the bet the Lions aren't
making the playoffs. It's so simple.
Speaker 5 (13:42):
I got that. I got a question for you, because
obviously there's a talent exodus going on right now.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
It's FISCO.
Speaker 5 (13:47):
The problem, though, is you're suggesting that they're having a
stripped down roster. They still have at least four or
five all program that's what I was named after.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
That get that, I get that, But still there are
a lot of players. They had a really good team
that gott that got to the super Bowl twice but
did not win. And all I'm saying is, I don't
believe that Brock is good enough with not this, with
not all your pieces on the team that you had
put together. So I gotta wait and see. I saw
(14:15):
him last year. I saw the cut rate. I saw
him without without those a lot of those pieces. And
I get injuries, that's a part of the game and
all that, but I'm not convinced that he's that guy.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
That's it. That's my test.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
That he's somewhere in the middle of twenty twenty three,
twenty twenty four, twenty three is first and everything passer
rating please of percentage QBR.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
He might be in the middle then, But and this
is where I think we're not giving the credit.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
The credit to me. I agree with that.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
I don't think he's necessarily like I said, he's not
top five sixty seven guy. But John Lynch and Kyle
Shanahan that how they're running this right now, getting right
players around him and Kyle, you know, dialing up that offense.
We've got a really good version of him.
Speaker 2 (14:57):
I got the forty nine is not making the playoffs
again into and the Bears winning the NFC North.
Speaker 4 (15:03):
Yeah, Well, I'm not Nick, right, I don't have winning
the super Bowl last year, winning the division.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
That's what Nick had them winning the super Bowl. Rob
g had who do you have the Jets and who
in there you go? So there we go.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
That's probably even worse than his Bears one, because both
of my teams were.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
I was close Chiefs Bears, Lions, chief I had Baltimore
and Eagles.
Speaker 5 (15:26):
Rob's consistent. He's picked Baltimore, like ride it out baseball.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
I picked the Padres for like four years ago. That's right,
you like sticks with you, ride it out. I'm gonna
ride it out because eventually it is going to happen.
Just like I told you all these years that the
Lions weren't gonna make it to.
Speaker 2 (15:44):
The super Bowl. I stuck with it. He was nervous.
I was lucky I wasn't here that year they blew
it in the NFC Championship. He was a nervous wreck.
I was first half. He was the first half.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
He was on spirit. Right now, I'm a Champagne member.
Go can I can I book a ticket together? Get
out of the country.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Hey, Rob, how good are the Dodgers gonna do this year? Ooh?
Good one. They're not making they're not winning the World Series.
Speaker 5 (16:07):
Steve Seger is laughing in your face right now.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
You know how hard it is to repeat. Steve knows.
He's a baseball guy. It's very tough to repeat in baseball.
We haven't had a team repeat in twenty five years.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
That's crazyde better Yankee is the Dodgers?
Speaker 2 (16:21):
What's that? Better? Yankees are Dodgers. The Dodgers are better
on paper, better season? Say who yeah, I mean they
just lost their age. That's a good point. Well, he's
still they lost him in the fifth inning, all right.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, and we got
a simple question. We want you to jump in eight seven, seven, nine, nine,

got the Wizards day won by twenty, so I'm good
on that.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
Twenty three oh twenty, you're right, hit it three yep.
Speaker 4 (17:54):
Twenty one to twenty three one O three.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Is the final score in Detroit? What other ones? Yeah?
Got that one? You got the Bucks and Bucks minus
two and a half.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
I think that scores tied going into the fourth and
the Clippers are down by four, and I have Clippers
minus seven and a half. A lot of time to
play against the Pelicans.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
All right, Repelicans, Repelicans eight.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Seven, seven ninety nine. On Fox? Where are you on
the forty nine ers? It's all about Brock purging the defense,
moving on from people to save money so they can
pay Brock and build around him.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Good planned. Kelvin likes it. I do not like it.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Let's start with Andre in Massachusetts. You're in the couple
of Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 8 (18:35):
What's up, Drey, Hey, what's going on? Thanks for taking
a call. Listen. As much as I love rock parties
and tangibles, at the end of the day, to me,
he's just a guy or a little bit above that.
He is not going to be that straw to stir
the drink. Let's not get let's not get things confused,
and let's not overestimate. I think we've got a little
bit of humoris going on here with Kyle Shanahan thinking
(18:58):
he and his system going to be able to go
out there and be competitive for a Super Bowl. We
learned this lesson in New England with Bill Belichick. When
Tom Brady hit the road.
Speaker 7 (19:08):
I was team Bill.
Speaker 8 (19:09):
My friends with Team Brady. How did that work out.
It's a talent that at the end of the day,
is going to propel a franchise, not a system in
and of itself. So I think this is a dangerous move. Frankly,
for the Sam Franco forty nine ers. You need to
go out there on the free market and bring in
those playmakers, those guys that are not you know, system
players last pick that you can coach up, but that
you need your Jamar Chases. You're just flat out playmakers
(19:32):
that will get it done.
Speaker 7 (19:33):
So I'm with you, Bob.
Speaker 8 (19:34):
I think this is a dangerous course of action. Kyle Cannon, right,
and that what they're doing.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
And now why they're clearing a bunch of money so
they can start doing that over the next year's I mean,
they're clearing up a bunch of money so they can
do it.
Speaker 4 (19:46):
But no, but they're giving money to a quarterback that
we think it's just a guy, that's the issue.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
But he's the thing about it is he's their guy.
And I get you're saying, like they believe he's that
was their guy too.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Okay, No, they didn't believe in him like that.
Speaker 4 (19:58):
Now, Chris in California. You're on the couple of five
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
What's up, Chris, what's going on?
Speaker 9 (20:05):
Thanks for taking my call. Yes, yo, Hey, I kind
of like it, Like you guys were talking about earlier.
Is this this is kind of the team that Trey
Lance was supposed to, you know run and like maybe
you know, and Perdy did a good job with with
what he had, and maybe maybe there were some things
that Shanahan saw. I don't personally think he's a genius,
(20:28):
but this will this will truly show because somebody like Purdy,
I don't see him ever becoming someone like Rogers in
with the ego part of it or like this is
my show. So maybe Shanahan, if he is a genius here,
I think pretty will do what he needs to do
what Shanahan recommends to you know how this is ran
(20:51):
what you know. I don't like the defense. I don't
like them moving defensive parts around. But maybe they add
a couple of weapons that they know will help Purdy
out and maybe it works out. But I think this
is more of a you know, a testimony to let's
see what Shanahan can do. Like maybe this's worked.
Speaker 4 (21:07):
All right, Chris. Thanks appreciate you. How about Chili tim
in Atlanta?
Speaker 2 (21:11):
Chili? What's up? Chili?
Speaker 7 (21:14):
Yo?
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Yo yo, yo yo?
Speaker 10 (21:15):
What's up?
Speaker 9 (21:16):
Ribs?
Speaker 7 (21:16):
Kelvina.
Speaker 10 (21:17):
You know I'm the resident of forty nine. Yes, for
the show I've been in forty nine fans is nineteen
eighty two. So here's my thing. Oh yeah, Friday night, Kevin,
to tell you I represented you on the Lebron James
take Most did you?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Yeah? Yeah, I appreciate it.
Speaker 10 (21:35):
But my thing is I kind of halfway understand the
offense because dee Bow was kind of hurt. He wasn't
He hasn't been the same player the last couple of weeks, so,
and we needed to see what Pearsol can do. Man,
he got shot, so maybe with a full training camp,
let's see what he can do if he comes back
from his injury. You still have Kittles and McCaffrey. My
(21:57):
problem is the defense. The secondary was already tracked, right,
and then you blame Steve Wilks in the Super Bowl win.
It really wasn't him and you let him go, and
you see how it was last year yep, and Drake Greenlaw,
I mean you you pissed off a guy that walked
off the field because you put Drake Greenlaw back in.
So if he was that good while you releasing him now,
(22:18):
so it makes you question that thing. So my problem
is I don't understand the defensive moves that they're doing best.
Speaker 4 (22:25):
I think with a big Okay, Tim, real quick, okay,
real quick, we got a run Rock Party. Are you
are you sold on him that he's going to be
a Super Bowl winning quarterback?
Speaker 5 (22:37):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (22:39):
Yeah, I think.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
I think.
Speaker 10 (22:40):
I think he can get that. I think he can win.
He got there before, So I'm not worried about the offense.
I really not. It's the defense this year.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
I don't.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
I don't think you're gonna win a super Bowl with
Rock Party. It's all good though. Appreciate it, Tim, Thank you.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Eddie House, NBA Champion, NBC Sports Boston, Fox Sports Radio,
NBA analyst and put an Emmy on his name. That's right,
Emmy Award winner Eddie. What's up man?
Speaker 2 (23:12):
How are you?
Speaker 7 (23:14):
What's happening? What's happening. I'm glad he shout out Chelsea.
That's my favorite soccer team in the EP. Uh so,
I'm glad he shot that out. Unless he was just
talking about that area or whatever, I don't know, but.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
Yeah, well we can talk, but screw the NBA. Let's
just talk some soccer because we need to talk about
that Lakers Celtics game. That's what I want to talk about.
Speaker 7 (23:36):
That well, as it was put to ask.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Yeah, well there you go. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
And he tell me about that and what you saw,
and I love that Boston played their players right.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Tatum played like forty something minutes play it.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
Like like I thought, that was it a big game
and they should play what'd you think.
Speaker 7 (23:54):
It was great? I was there live and direct. I'll
be there live and direct tomorrow night as well.
Speaker 2 (23:59):
Look, they pay for you to come to Boston and
watch games.
Speaker 7 (24:02):
Huh oh no, you know they paid for me to
talk about it, you know, uh you know what I mean.
But uh no, I thought I thought it was a
great game by by the self. It's a great game plan.
You got to give give credit to the Lakers. They
had they fought hard, they showed heart. It just wasn't enough,
(24:25):
you know what I mean, it just wasn't enough, and
we didn't have Porzingis out there and you know, hopefully
he gets well. I have no idea what's really going
on with him. I've been asking around and we really
can't get a real definite answer on that one. And
you know that's they keeping it tight to their vest
I don't know if they're uh, it would be serious.
(24:47):
If he doesn't play tomorrow, then I'm thinking, like, man,
it's something really really really going on. But I know
it's it's the long haul, you know. I mean, it's
about getting to the playoffs and uh and trying to
win this champion. And to me, I believe that we're
gonna do it again and I'll be on a duck
boat again. Hold the trophy. I have a cigar in
(25:11):
my mouth and uh, you know, be feeling really good
about it. But that game was it was really good.
I thought that it showed the two different sides of
each team. Yeah, and each team. You look at it,
it's top heavy for the Lakers, and we're just we're
a deeper team.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
I believes without a doubt.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
I mean, you guys have might maybe you know, maybe
there's another Okay, so he could be maybe considered in this.
As far as having so many guys who can shoot,
dribble pass, you know what I mean, guys who can create,
who can they're not just specially they actually Derek White
can create and score. He can get people buckets, you
obviously take them. Jalen Brown, Drew Holliday. I mean, you
have so many guys who can do that. Yeah, even
(25:54):
for Zingis when he's healthy and right. But I want
to go to the matchup. Jalen Brown has shown a
few times here Addie that he's with the smoke with Luca.
He likes Jack Luca, and I love to see the
best best. You're from the era where we see Kobe
and Tmac right, Chris Paul and Darren Williams. Guys would
go at it. They'll try to hide and put them
away from your goal deal. I like seeing Jaylen Brown
(26:14):
on Luca, and he did a great job on him
for the most part.
Speaker 7 (26:18):
For the most part, No, he did a great job
with him.
Speaker 6 (26:20):
He did.
Speaker 7 (26:21):
He was a disruptor and at times what they would do,
you know, because we switched a lot. He was like
searching out that switch. He would get that switch without
Horford or he'll get that switch with another player, but
he ripped him twice. He did, and he did that
in the NBA Finals as well. And sometimes you have guys,
and ill admit it, it's guys that you like, Damn,
(26:43):
I gotta play him tonight. And one of them for
me was Jamal Crawford. When I had to guard Jamal Crawford,
it was just like, man, I just got to try
to stay in front of it contestant shot and help.
He missed right. And then another guy on the other
side of the ball when I had the ball in
my hand, it would be Lindsey hunting Ah.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Let me no doubt.
Speaker 7 (27:06):
He was a lockdown, physical got away with a lot
of things because he was a veteran new the referee,
so he could be extra handsy. So sometimes it's guys
like that that you play in the league that you know, like, man,
this one of the matchups and I think that that's
what's going on right now. And I don't want to
(27:27):
give Luca any extra fuel. But at the same time,
to be honest with you, I think Jalen wants all
that because he's with all that extra fuel, so somebody
want to say something about what he can do defensively.
He wanted to make All Defensive Team last year. He
got snub from that. He didn't get to go to
the Olympics. He got snubbed from that. So he has
(27:48):
a lot of motivation, especially when he sees Luca.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Let me ask you about the Cleveland Cavaliers. They won
again the night they beat the balling who played and
they didn't have Donovan Mitchell didn't play. It didn't matter.
Just how good are they, Eddie, because it's amazing. They
just keep winning no matter what the deal is.
Speaker 7 (28:10):
I think they're a very good team. And one thing
that I'll say is that you win fifteen straight games
in the NBA, and you did it twice because they
want four. They had a fourteen game win straight before
this one. That's a real team. You can't just look
at them and say, hey, I don't know, they might
not be for real. No teams that do that are
(28:32):
usually for real. And the only teams that usually dethrown
those type of teams are teams that can match that,
you know, man for man. At the end of the day,
you know, roster roster compared, and then coaching staff at
the same time. So I'm very impressed by what the
(28:53):
Cleveland Cavaliers are doing. I'm impressed by what okay Se
is doing. And my gas is up because we play
okay See tomorrow. You know, I'll be in the garden
tomorrow and we play them tomorrow. I'm gonna have my
both of my rings on because I got one ring
and then the team gave me a ring because you know,
I'm part of you know, the Celtics family. So I
(29:15):
got another ring. So I'm gonna have two rings on
the morrow.
Speaker 4 (29:18):
Let me ask you this as a broadcast, chain on too,
as a broadcast is a Cubic zaconia. Though the diamonds
in the world.
Speaker 7 (29:25):
Man, you better stop, you better knock it off, man,
Come on, man went on short change? Just a first
class organization over here. It's the best organization in the NBA. Man,
there's no short change.
Speaker 2 (29:38):
All right, good, I'm glad to hear that.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
Let me ask you this, though, I do want to
ask you the joker the other night, obviously thirty twenty
and twenty big comeback last night over the Thunder. They
split those back to back games. You know, people talking
about the MVP. The joker has to have closed the
gap at this point for most people, you feel the
(30:01):
same way.
Speaker 7 (30:02):
No, I don't feel the same way. I feel the
reason why. I mean, he's being amazing. But then think
about this, when Russell Westbrook was having a triple double,
what did everybody say. They just credit the triple double, didn't.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
No, they didn't. He got the m VP that year.
Speaker 7 (30:16):
No, no, no, no, no, he did it for three
out of four years.
Speaker 6 (30:20):
No.
Speaker 7 (30:21):
Wait, let me finish what I'm saying. They discredited after
he did it two years, right, they said, oh, the
triple double is not that big. I think you were
one of them.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
By the way, for me to say that.
Speaker 7 (30:34):
You could play the tame, I wish I had it
because I would play it. I will press play right now.
But everybody's saying, hey, you know, the triple double is
not that big. It's so easy to go get it.
I respect what yo kid just doing. He is the
best player in the league, right, I'll give him that credit.
Speaker 9 (30:50):
But what SGA is.
Speaker 7 (30:51):
Doing, he is on the best team, and he is
the best player on the best team. So always the
at that criteria when you're the best player on the best.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
And never been done before that that doesn't do anything
for I'm just asking you, I know, but it's never
been done before. That doesn't do anything for you?
Speaker 7 (31:11):
Did Kobe? It does? I'll be like, damn the man.
I can't do that at a rec center, you know
what I'm saying. And I'm an NBA right, you know, yeah,
I can't do it. But let me ask you this.
When Kobe scored eighty one, did he win that MVP
that year? And we know that Will got a hunt it,
but that was like the highest that we ever seen before.
(31:32):
So that one game doesn't move the needle for me.
Speaker 5 (31:35):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (31:36):
Wow, What moves the needle for me is what somebody
has been done. Let me ask you this. Have you
ever seen a beat a sweat on SGA's face?
Speaker 2 (31:47):
Now he's out there, chiller. It looks easy.
Speaker 1 (31:49):
He got that little Tracy McGrady. It just looks easy
getting buckets? All right, dy Eddie Man, We appreciate you,
Thank you man. We'll do it again next week. Enjoy
the game, man, rings and a chained on him stunting
on them all right. Last Call eight seven seven ninety
