Mahlor Show version of the podcast. Golden State Surviving a

(00:42):
scare a missed three pointer at the buzzer from Harrison
Barnes as the Warriors even up the series with Sacramento
at two two now, Steve Kerr, the coach, said that
Stephen Curry's time out goof up at the end of
that game was one hundred percent his fault, the coach's fault.
Give me your school of thought on that. Who gets

(01:03):
the blame for Sacramento stumbling in this latest game? And
the series is tied to two Going back to the
capital of California. Who's got the edge. We'll take a
look at that as well. Right now here it is
our number one. Missed it by that much? Say what? Well?

(01:25):
Come in the beginning of a new week of the

bouncy Ball. There's a lot going on in this sport.
Is also NFL Draft Week, but we're gonna focus a
lot on the basketball. The activity. Play the hits, mam man,

(02:30):
Play the hits, all right, We'll play the bunch of
games on Sunday. Western Conference Game number four and if
you like teams that play in Northern California. This is
your dream matchup. Sacramento making the short bus ride to
take on their rivals in Northern California, the Golden State Warriors.

(02:52):
The Kings coming into this game leading two games to one,
a Sunday afternoon matchup. Did you watch? Were you checking? No,
you actually have a life. You were out doing things.
You were not watching this game. You were not obsessing
with this matchup? Well, Stephen Curry had thirty two points,
But who goofed I've got it or that would be

(03:15):
Curry because he gave Sacramento an opportunity late in this game.
What did he do? Time out? Time out? You don't
have any timeouts. You can't call it timeout. You call
it timeout? What are you stupid? He called the timeout.
He called it time. He did the thing you can't
do at the time. You can't do it. He called
the timeout. Golden State didn't have any and the Warriors

(03:36):
holding on. They did beat the Kings one twenty six
to one twenty five because Harrison Barnes, inn Ex Warrior
missed a wide open three pointer at the Bozser clankingy
clank and it does not go in. So Golden State
able to win. But to set that up even further.

(03:58):
So Golden State was up by five with forty two
point four seconds left, Curry was called for the excessive timeout.
He did the webber, He did the weber, and Malik
Monk made a technical file shot for Sacramento. But the
Aaron Fox had a big game thirty eight points, nine rebounds,
five assists for Sacramento. His three pointer with twenty eight

(04:21):
point seven seconds left that pulled the Kings within one,
Curry missing a sixteen foot jumper. I thought he never missed.
That's what the media told me. He missed. He missed
sixteen foot jumper. On the other end, Keegan Murray corroused
the rebounds and Curry and Green were then on defense,
and that is when the final play happened. Tod Aaron
Fox was dribbling the ball and he got into a

(04:45):
bit of a pickle and he dish it off to
Harrison Barnes for the game what would have been the
game winning three. The Kings were only down by one
at that point, but they took the three and back
of the rim. No good. So Game five now of
seventh series. It is Wednesday, Wednesday, Wednesday, back in the
Capitol of California in Sacramento, where the Kings have yet

(05:09):
to lose in the postseason this year two and zero
the Warriors, who have been not only a road team,
they have been garbage on the road all year. And
so that will be the scene for the next matchup.
But let's discuss. Let's start with the big story. Don't
bare the lead, my man, don't bear the lead, and

(05:29):
that would be the screw up by Steph Curry. What
happened now? After the game, Steve Kerr, the Warrior head coach,
a disciple of Phil Jackson, Steve Kerr said that Steph
Curry's time out goof up was one hundred percent his fault.
Steve curR said, it's my fault. I take the blame.
So give me your school of thought on that. Steve

(05:51):
curR says he was the one that was the blame,
not Steph Curry. So I've got foggy chaperones and footwear
and we will tie all of these things together and
we are going to make a migrain headache, which is
what Steph Curry would have had had in a different
dimension that shot gone in by Harrison Barnes, but he

(06:12):
did not, so a I am not buying behind these micros.
I'm not buying what Steve curR is something. I know.
That's what you're supposed to say. You got to defend
your stars, and it's not the star's fault. I'm the coach.
It's my fault and all that. And could Steve Kerr
have reminded Steph Curry of the timeout situation?

Speaker 2 (06:31):
Sure?

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Sure, Ultimately though this falls on the shoulders of Curry
in that situation now, But listen to Steve Kerr here
lay it on thick as he tries to explain the
situation where the greatest player in the history of the
Golden State Warriors this side of Wilt Chamberlain does the
thing you can't do Steph Curry.

Speaker 3 (06:53):
One hundred percent of my fault. I knew we didn't
have any timeouts left. We took the challenge, and when
the challenge was unsuccessful as we were exiting the huddle,
that's on me. I gotta I've got to remind the
guys we're out of timeouse. So I didn't say that,
and so Steph wasn't aware. So that's on me for

(07:15):
not making that clear.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
All right, So a couple of things here, Maybe we
all have a boss that covers up from mistakes like
Steve Kerr did for Steph Curry. Can we all have
a boss like that? That's the first thought I have.
The second thought I have is it's just bullcrap, because
I've been told it's been ram rotted down my throat
from the NBA media elites, that Steph Curry is on
a pedestal, that he's just smarter than everyone else. He's

(07:40):
been entombed in the valley of the legend. He's unshakable
in big moments. You've told me that, You've told me
that he's the patron saint of basketball. Steph Curry, he's
a sacred cow. But in this chapter, there was some
thick fog. It was very foggy in the mind of
Steph Curry. He did the thing. You can't do it
at the time, you can't do it, and that falls

(08:00):
on him. That's not his coach's fault. That's on him.
Renowned basketball like you did not know how many timeouts
there were. So I never want to hear another idiot
on television tell me how he's the smartest guy on
the court. Zip it, okay, just zip it. Not so
much methinks Curry. Now he can laugh right, Golden State

(08:23):
won the game. Had the outcome been different, and again
in another dimension it was. This would have could have
should have been been one for the time capsule. It
will not be one for the time capsule. I'm sorry,
but it would have stuck to him like warm bubblegum
to a sneaker on a hot summer day. It's not

(08:43):
on Steve Kerr. It's on Steph Kerry. And this is
akin to a baseball player forgetting how many outs there were,
a base runner not realizing how many outs there were
and doing the thing you're not supposed to do, and
all that happens occasionally in baseball. This playoff game, playoffs.
It's a playoff game. Now, page two. Who gets the

(09:04):
blame for Sacramento? I lose by one point, so if
you bet on Sacramento, you won the bet. But they
stumble at the end there after leading at halftime, did
not play well in the third quarter. So we give
a big chunk of the blame HOGI, which is a
little different than the blame pie. You've got the blame pie,

(09:25):
but this is the blame HOGI. So Harrison Barnes clearly
gets to wear the goat horns along with Malik Monk
to some degree. Now, Barnes, he had the wide open
three point look at the end of the game, and
he's one of the only players on Sacramento who's got
playoff pedigree. He's been to the big moments. That's what

(09:45):
the genius is in sports media like to talk about
so much. They love that. Well, Harrison Barnes is the guy,
and you gotta make the shot clank and he klank. Also,
Malik Monk, who for most of the game was not
shooting well going on the fourth quarter, is three of
ten from the floor. And if you're gonna divvy up
the blame HOGI in classic NBA finishion, you have to

(10:10):
give a special game ball if you're Golden State to
the Zebras. Some very sketchy officiating is somebody named Josh
Tiven and his crew working as the sixth, seventh, and
eighth demand for the Golden State Warriors. Here a little
home court advantage, the officials working as chaperones. Where have
we seen that before?

Speaker 4 (10:30):
Here?

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Yeah, oh yeah, We've seen that many times and for
some reason people still watch. I'm not as into it
it's NBA product, as I have been in the past.
But the officials working as chaperones here to keep the
Warriors in the game. Male escorts, if you will. They
were male escorts, is what they were. And boy did
Golden State like the feeling. They like that a lot.
Now what's my evidence here? What is my evidence?

Speaker 5 (10:53):
Now?

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Can we agree on a couple things before I give
you my evidence? Can we agree that both these teams
play the same style, that there's not a huge disparity,
that Sacramento is a doppelganger to what Golden State does,
that they are almost identical because Mike Brown took what
he learned from Steve Kerr and they're doing the same

(11:15):
crap and Sacramento the Warriors. So with that established, when
I see you nodding, we all agree. So these teams
are mirror images of each other. The final box score
does not tell the story. If you saw the game,
you were watching the game in real time, you know
Sacramento in the first half of this game had one
foul shot who no one In the first twenty four

(11:37):
minutes of the game, they attempted one foul shot. The
kids were still leading the game despite being outscored by
nine points from the charity stripe in favor of Golden State,
and going to the fourth quarter, Golden State had built up.
They had a ten point league going to the fourth quarter.
A big third quarter explosion for the Warriors. After three

(11:59):
quarters of the war Years were winning the foul shooting
disparity by ten they had They had ten more points
plus ten from the foul line. That was the difference
in the game going to the fourth Quarterdaron Fox had
a monster stat line and a huge game. Even in
the fourth Cortery played well twelve points in the fourth quarter.
The King still had a chance to win this game

(12:21):
despite the old home cooking all right, last word here,
So the series at this point is two to to two,
going back to Sacramento, Who's got the etch, Who's got
the edge? With the arrow on the malor indicator still
pointing at the King's direction here after being smashed in

(12:41):
Game three, Sacramento picking up the booster shot. Despite one
sided officiating for much of this game, the game on Sunday,
they still had a chance to win the game. Golden
State has been a biblically terrible road team all year.
They've matched that up in the postseason with a couple
of losses. I don't care if you lose by a
little or a lot. You lost the games. And so

(13:03):
now they have to figure out they have to muster
up a game plan to be victorious in the Land
of the cow Bells. That's what asked that the Kings
secondary players are going to play better at home. Kevin
Hurder completely vanished in these two games. Malik Monk played sporadically,
sporadically okay, but he was also shaky. And then Keithan

(13:23):
Murray who had a good game on Sunday, but he
did not play well in Game three. So as long
as Sacramento has the right footwear going into Game four,
these steel toed boots, because the Kings are the ones driving.
They're driving the pace car right now, the one you
can't stub your toe at home. Just take care of business.
There's there's one stipulation that you must always throw out here.

(13:48):
Watch out for the four leaf clover of Shenanigans. The
NBA has been known to throw snake venom at Star
Crossed franchises. We saw a little bit of it in
Game four here where it was clearly biased in favor
of Golden State, allowing the Warriors to build up a
ten point lead and still Sacramento had a chance at
the end there, but it was a ten point game

(14:11):
after three quarters. A lot of that on the back
of the officiating, who were really the sixth, seventh eighth
man in that game. So some strategic phantom foul calls
early of dearon Fox or demonte spons geting one of
those guys in foulship, but really dearon Fox, and then
that shifts the whole axis in favor of Golden State.

(14:32):
But you gotta think the anxiety is stilling the Warriors
unless they know the script and they know that they're
going to get the calls and all that. Even though
the Kings are the higher seeded team here, they are
playing with house money because all the experts, oh that
championship pedagree they're Golden State Warriors. They are the trumpeons
they cut out lose. Okay, okay, wink wink nod died.

I'm at Eddie on Fox. I'm all ready to go
whenever you want to do it and I'll live from

(16:16):
the Tyraq dot com Fox Sports Radio studios.

Speaker 5 (16:19):
It's Ben Malor.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
In a story that does not affect you the consumer
at all. Are next to last night in the old
studio at Fox Sports Radio. It's not old yet. It's
the current studio at FSR, but we are moving across
the hall in a couple of nights. It is old
as coffee stains. Computer's been broken for years. Yeah, it's

(16:43):
a piece of crack. I will not miss it. It
is a dump this place. We should burn it, but
I don't think they'll let us burn it. Eddie, I
don't believe the management because it is connected to the
other studio. It's taking it a bit too far. Now, No,
how don't we just take baseball bats and just destroy
stuff about a little office space. That'd be good, Kiman. Now,
I think we should, and based on seniority, we can

(17:06):
go in here and just unload. Just waiale away. Anyway,
we started here a little NBA playoff action, and the
most people agree with me is Steph Curry, completely fed up.
Not everyone though supermarket Steve is a jocksniffer, he says,
I believe Steve Kerr it's his fault. When I was
in high school. You know it's going to be a

(17:26):
good message when he's really into his high school days.
He's now going full Al Bundy. He says, when I
was in high school, we had an assistant coach whose
only job was to tell us how many timeouts we
had and the foul situations we came out of timeouts.
I have to believe that a professional organization as a
coach for that.

Speaker 5 (17:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
I also I would think to touch up your work here, supermarket, Steve.
I would also like to think that Steph Curry High Basketball,
like you guy, would know how many timeouts there. Chris
in de Moin writes, and he says, have we had
we have a location for the Minnesota Malor meet up? Well,
we are finalizing the location. I'd hope to have a

(18:06):
location done by Friday. It did not happen. The original
location fell through, so we will not mention that location.
We will not bother to promote that location. Screw that location.
I hope that location goes out of business. So we're
on our backup location, which is going to be the
new number one location. But I will let you know
as soon. I will not hold back that information. But

(18:26):
we are going to be making a rare and appropriate
Malor meet and greet the pilgrimage to the Mecca. And
there are rumors that Hollering James, who has not called
the show in a little bit, that Hollering James will
be making an appearance, that we're going to break him
out of the institution he's in and he will be
showing up there. We hope that actually does happen. We're

(18:48):
efforting that there are multiple people working on that. We
look forward to it. Greg the real estate and mogul
in Baltimore writes, and he says, hey, plus on the
Malor monologue, he says, for your information, I coached my
son's little league team, and we picked the Marlins as
our team because of your relationship with Marlin's Man. See

(19:09):
that right there, influencing the youth of America. And and
don't forget Greg, that Eddie over there did not think
that Marlin's Man was a real friend. Eddie spat Alugi
and Marlin's Man my friend for many years. Me and
Marlin's Man we hang out together and Eddie's oh, you know,
he doesn't really Hey, listens, he's up late at night

(19:30):
driving around Miami. No, he is, he's he's asked me
about the show, Eddie. We've hung out together. He's asked
me about certain things that happened, people that call the
show exet I'm on the a list. He sends me
messages all the time, Eddie. We're text buddies, Me and
Marlin's Man. We're tight. Well, you can see whatever you want.

(19:51):
Have you been to have you been to? Uh? Dodger
stating with Marlinsman VIP. But yet because he doesn't like you,
because he knows you just every damn game. He's not
at every game, he's at every Sunday night game. Well
usually he's on Saturday is typically the Big Fox game.

(20:11):
And then No, he's just a savvy fan. He's a
he's a better fan than you, Ddie. And you're jealous
of his his fandom. And Greg, congratulations to your your
son there being on the Marlins and and that's a
that's a great choice. That's a fine, fine choice. And
you know what, I'm gonna text marlins Man, not right now,
but I'll text him later and I'll let him know.
I'll pass that information onto him. Let's go to the

(20:33):
phones and we'll say hello to John in Stillwater. Hello John, John.
If I was any better, I'd be an official, but
not an NBA official, because that was some bulk craft
officiating in that Warrior Kings game.

Speaker 7 (20:51):
You're not a lying that was terrible.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
Damn right, absolutely, But you know.

Speaker 7 (20:59):
That's not all the person that wins the game.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
No, Typically, for some reason in the NBA, it's often
not like that. It's almost a reason not to watch
the product. It's almost the reason to just go out
and enjoy and just move on from that. But anyway,
I guess what's on your mind there, John, What do
you got?

Speaker 7 (21:17):
Well? I was watching the Lakers last night, and I
gotta say, these role players that the Lakers collected are
looking pretty good around Anthony Anthony Davis and Lebron James
extremely efficient, And that's exactly what.

Speaker 1 (21:33):
They need with these two guys, I agree. And as
long as they can keep kicking Dylan Brooks out and
players like that, the Lakers will go all the way
to the NBA files. I am convinced that Dylan the difference.
What's that to happen? And judging by Coop's reaction and
Roberto's reaction, I think they agree that they they're a
little bothered that I'm on to the ruse. They're a
little bothered that I'm onto this game. Here, here we go, Clippers,

(21:57):
Here we go, Here we go, Clippers, here we go. Yeah,
what's that there? I don't know wherever Kawai wants to go.
He obviously doesn't want to play. Maybe they'll go to
on vacation somewhere. Dylan Brooks was three for thirteen when
he got kicked out. Yeah, big difference maker. He was
due to get hot, he was due to get hot.
He missed those shots early in the game. And the
fact that you don't think he's an essential part of

(22:18):
the Grizzlies. You think that's okay? And I agree with
Dylan Brooks. He was kicked out of it because of reputation,
because they've got to repect. They've got to protect Lebron's balls.
The NBA's job is to protect the nuts of Lebron James.
That's the fact.

Speaker 7 (22:32):
Hey, you already know his DNA is worth millions. People
would pay millions for some of that DNA.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Really, how much would you pet? Sounds like you want
to pay, So I wouldn't pay anything for that. I'm
good on that. I thank you. Go away, all right,
my god, it is the Ben Maler Show and NBA
player going bumpity bump and now has some explaining tutu.
We'll get to that, but right now, over to the
sports news desk and the mermaid. Who's la Kings are

(23:00):
choking dogs? Eddie Garcia?

Speaker 5 (23:03):
Yeah, they lost the overtime game. They're tied to against
the team that's supposed to better.

Speaker 1 (23:07):
Okay, house man Garcia, right over the house man Garcia,
how about you finish the game, Eddie? How about that?
You finished the game? Eddie? Finished again? I know you
always go back to the Clippers. Clippers, buddy, Clippers run
l and a point about the Kings and you bring

(23:31):
up the Clippers. All you guys have you have Clipper
derangement syndrome? I get it. They run l A. I
would be jealous of them too. They're gonna have more
toilets than anybody, gonna dominate the toilet game. You canna
laugh all you want, but when you gotta take a wiz, Eddie,
you'd rather be a Clipper game than anywhere else in
a couple of years.

Speaker 5 (23:52):
True, I would never be at a Clipper game. Good.
Thank God.

Speaker 6 (23:57):
Be sure to catch live editions of the Ben mellersh

Speaker 4 (24:44):
Why you mentioned this a little bit, so I guess
I'll bring it up. Dylan Brooks ejected over the weekend
for punching Lebron James and the ding Ding.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
Yeah. Well, the message was sent by the Lakers we
need some help, and the NBA said we got you,
we got you.

Speaker 4 (24:59):
We're here to apparently not, because he's not going to
be suspended apparently for.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
They already the game. They already helped the Lakers out.
They got him the win. If the Lakers lose this,
then somebody else will be kicked out of the next game.

Speaker 4 (25:09):
But Dylan Brooks says it is the media's fault, damn
right being kicked out the game. He says that the
media has painted him as a villain and that has
factor the officiating.

Speaker 5 (25:19):
They view him now as a villain.

Speaker 4 (25:21):
It's part of his narrative and that's why he was
ejected unfairly for punching him as a clown.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
You're the media. How do you feel about that? You're responsible?
Shame on?

Speaker 5 (25:30):
You feel wonderful about it?

Speaker 1 (25:31):
Really?

Speaker 4 (25:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (25:32):
You are such a King's houseman. Are they paying you
to do that podcast? You must be on the pay
Well they're not, but somebody is. So you think that
was a perfectly fine loss for the Kings. You don't.
You don't have any problem with them blowing that lead.
You have no problem with it. No, I didn't say that,
but they've sounds like they're okay with it. They're playing
a team that's supposed to be superior to them.

Speaker 4 (25:52):
You're a bad fan, and they've they've played three overtime games.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
If you blow a three goal lead, you're a choking
You should be ripped for that, and you're not ripping them.
That's a bad fan. Eddie, you're a bad fan.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
There're two two, it's best of three against the team
that's supposedly better. You are such a bad fan, you
please pay tickets to watch my team.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
That means you're a sucker. Also, so you're a sucker
and a bad fan.

Speaker 5 (26:17):
Benever goes to see his team as if he's got
a media pack.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
Damn right. You think I'm going to support these billionaires
and millionaires. Hell no, they don't. They know they watch
illegal Russian streams. And that's how you're doing. That's what
real fans, that's what you do. You don't make as
much money as you. You're not. We're not rich. Radio
guys like you do it overnight joke. I don't think so.
If you if you know how much, if you know

(26:40):
how much I made it.

Speaker 6 (26:40):
You'd laugh.

Speaker 5 (26:41):
Well I probably would, but still more than what I made.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
You say, you you you're doing a national five undred
station and pay you? What are you kidding me? I
don't know. I don't know about I don't know about that.

Speaker 5 (26:56):
If it's not, you should definitely quit.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
I thought about something else, especially almost after the last
couple weeks. I might have to go hang with roberta.
I hear you get more time off. All right, it
is the Ben mallord Show. As we continue on, and
as Chris Myers used to say, I kid because I care, Eddy,

(27:18):
that's the old line from Chris. Exactly, go to a
NASCAR race or something like that. All right, to the
Ben Mallards Show on Fox, justin in Cincinnati. Actually he's
in the he's in the Channa Force. He says that
idiot from Oklahoma sounded like he had some bull testicles

(27:40):
in his mouth. Also, big news, Eddie, the show that
was incorrectly named the Mallardtown Podcast has gone away, Eddie. Yes,
Wall it was so stupid they named the show the
Mallardtown Podcast. They never talked about our show. It was
the dumbest thing I've ever seen in my life, and
they finally stopped it. I mean, if you want to know,

(28:02):
I would be I'd love for somebody to do a
podcast about this show, but to call it the Mallartown Podcast,
and it's not even about the show. It's just a
couple of dudes who happened to listen to the show
that talk about talk about the show.

Speaker 5 (28:16):
A little bit.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
But they did, they did, they never did. It was
the dumbest thing in the world. It's pretty stupid. So
they finally changed.

Speaker 5 (28:24):
The name of it.

Speaker 1 (28:26):
Probably it was about Robbie the Mariner fan or whatever
he had for lunch. What's I don't know who cares.
I'm not going to listen to it, but yeah, it's ridiculous.

Speaker 5 (28:35):
It's like he just Scoop left the.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
Well, he left, he left the country, he went away.
He's in Ukraine.

Speaker 5 (28:42):
He's doing He's not doing the podcast from there.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
I do not think he is doing that, although he
did pop up on the Fifth Hour podcast a couple
of weeks ago. We had him on there is it called Coopertown?
Now it's called Coopertown's tried the Bust with robertos h
Man Alive ferg Dog Rights and says, save these receipts, Ben.

(29:08):
When the Clippers win the title next year, the Bennetts
are going to owe you a big apology. Absolutely correct,
Absolutely correct. Cowboy Killer says Eddie is just jealous the
Kings and Lakers will never be as popular as the
Clippers and the Ducks. Well that is true, and once
the Ducks win that draft lottery, watch out. Let's say

(30:10):
see what really happens there. He knew the clock and
he knew that if I'd put him on for the
allotted time that we would have gone a little long.
So how about Dejenttey Murray of the Atlanta Hawks. He's
got something explaining to do. In the final seconds after
the Atlanta Hawks lost to the Boston Celtics in Game four,
putting them on life support down three games to one,

(30:33):
de Jontay Murray decided, you know what, I don't like
the officiating here, so I'm going to bump the official.
It was captured on camera. He a little bumpy bump
to the official. No word on whether he'll be suspended
for Game five or if it even matters if he's
suspended for Game five, but de Jontay Murray can see
the evidence there look pump of the referee. Is that

(30:53):
going to be enough to have him ejected or suspended
from the next game? Days of Our NBA Lives continues

remember the Texas Rangers named Dallas Garcia joined me as
the only players in MLB history with five extra base
hits and eight RBIs in a single game. Although it
should be noted that a Dallas Garcia did that against
a minor league team in Oakland? So does that really
count if you do it against the minor league team?

(32:25):

A's are not trying to win until they get to
Las Vegas. Let's see, does anyone know the answer? Does

Yes, it was another one of my cousins, former Blue
Jay Domaso Garcia.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
Domaso Garcia. That is incorrect, Eddie. This is a guy
I like doing cocaine back in the day, the cocaine cowboy.
Joh Well, so big for yourself. Josh Hamilton is the answer,
Josh Hamilton with the Rangers. Do you think he was
all coked up when he did that against the yes
Orioles at Camden Yards? And shortly after that season he

(35:30):
would sign a big contract with the Angels. How did
that work out? Did that work out?

Speaker 6 (35:34):
Well? Very well?

Speaker 1 (35:35):
It did not work for him. Let's go to Ryan
who is in southern California in Burbank.

Speaker 8 (35:41):
Kello, Ryan, hey Ben, So, I was I am actually
a Clippers fan yes week exist and I was hearing
your ring about about the Clippers, and I'm really I'm
genuinely curious because here's my my just two steps on
the Clippers. I grew up in San Diego. I'm a

(36:02):
huge Kawhi fan. I you know, he's a two time champion.
He's great. What you know the caveat is when he plays,
he's he's fantastic. But I mean, this is a serious
thing at this point for Clipper fans. What is going
to happen next season? Obviously the Clippers move into a
new stadium in twenty twenty four, where then the NBA

(36:23):
will hopefully stop screwing them on giving them less rest
than every other everything.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
You don't like afternoon playoff games, which the Clippers always play. Yeah,
I know. No, here's what's good, hap But Steve Barmer's
got more money than God. He's got. They can no
longer depend on Kawhi Leonard and Paul George. These guys
are stiffs. They are not reliable. I agree with you.
I love watching Kawhi play when he wants to play.
He doesn't care, he doesn't want to play, he's not
motivated to play. You can't rely on someone like that.

(36:51):
You can't run a business depending on someone like that.
So stop. You've babied him for three years in a row.
Now four years. You've babied him. You've done with ever
he wanted. He let him take knights off, and he
took advantage of He has to screw him. That's what
I have to say. All Right, here we go, let's
get to it. We can get it in. I believe
in this, and it's the MLB. Pick him, Roberto, you

(37:11):
are going first. I'll take Spencer Schreider.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
Thank you, all right.

Speaker 1 (37:16):
Jordan Montgomery and.

Speaker 5 (37:18):

Speaker 1 (37:34):

Speaker 5 (37:39):
What a great pick.

All right, we're brit to the back to back. We'll
say it, and Ronald, you know what? I need a rise?
How about Louis a rise of the Miami Marlins my
team and in real estate logo, Greg and Baltimore's team, Eddie,
