Speaker 1 (00:02):
Sean Brace on the Dally Ticket Daily Ticket on Fox
Sports Radio, The Gamblers Let's go. I love it. Everybody's
got the answers Daily Take with you here. Shunbury's riding
so low NBA Finals Game six tonight okay see minus
(00:26):
six on the road in Indiana, and Julian Edloluttle earlier
today said you know what could potentially see OKC winning
this game yet not covering the number? I had some
really good details numbers back it up with his take.
Interesting because I just don't know if with the Pacers
without Halliburn out there, we'll have enough firepower because we
(00:52):
just know, Okayse's the better team. I get it. The
game isn't played on paper. You're talking about the emotions
in game six, and they're tough spot. You know, Game
seven's on the line here right like you don't want
to and anything could happen in game seven and you
don't want to get there. I'm having a hard time
saying that Pacers are going to cover the number. I
(01:13):
think I would just be happy they're taking okay see,
and if it goes to a game seven, then were
all rewarded. Here's the deal. If it goes to a
game seven. There is no way in hell the Pacers
are winning that game. Of course we know that. What
would be to spread ten eleven? You got an eleven
point game in a game seven? Yeah, you're laying that number. Yeah,
(01:40):
you'd have to because there's no way the Pacers are
winning that game. So I'm just going to back Okay,
see here, small, nothing too crazy. I do like the
McConnell angle. I do like the under and Halliburton as
far as his numbers are concerned. Again, fourteen and a
half on DraftKings sportsbook props that are listed for uh
Tyres Haliburn, who potentially could miss the game. It's been
(02:04):
really weird. He's going to give it a go, but
he could be a little limited here. He was asked
yesterday about his approach to the injury.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
How smart do you have to be, I guess in
this situation or are you not even thinking in those
terms at this point?
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Well, I think it depends on who you ask. I mean,
you're asking me, so, uh.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
I think I have to be as smart as I
as I want to be to understand the risks, ask
the right questions.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
But I'm a competitor. I want to play. I'm gonna
do everything in my power to play, and that's just
what it is. Yeah, I'll back okay see tonight. Closing
up everybody, A lot of people did say okay see
in five. I had okay see in five, Okay, okay
see in six. Seems to be a pretty good consensus
for a lot of people out there. I never thought
it was a sweet thought Indiana would get one, but
(02:50):
potentially here they are with an opportunity to get to
and force a game seven. I'm not sure if that's
going to be the case, but uh, I think we
would all prefer to see a game seven at the end.
But again, it's it's a tough spot here, and I
just do believe that the better team is Oklahoma City,
So why not as far as that is concerned. Sam
Astry back with this, I'm back. I'm great to have. Yeah,
(03:12):
hit on that a little bit. I did want to
get in real quick if we could though. A dominant
performance by Ranger Suarez last night and the Phillies finding
a way to win a game again against the Marlins
four to two. But Ranger Suarez has just been unbelievable
and it's been a lot of fun to be a
part to believe in him number one, and then to
be able to go to watch him go out there.
(03:33):
Last eight starts, he's only given up seven earned runs
twelve walks. He's third in Major League Baseball on e
r A. And it's funny because Bob Winkle, who does
a great job covering all things Phillies, he's just like,
should have made him a setup man. Like, you know,
they got an embarrassment of riches, and somebody's got to
go to the penn. Like if Aaron Nola comes back
(03:55):
and he was he's not, he's now going to be extended.
But if he did come back, he was paid to money.
Somebody has to go to the pen. And I didn't
think Ranger Suarez going to the pen would have been
now set up man. I don't know. I wasn't a
part of those conversations, but yeah, he is too damn good.
He clearly is too damn good for that role. He
(04:16):
is a bona fide badass in this pitching rotation and
just another ho home seven innings last night, had the
six total strikeouts cashed in on that. Unfortunately Judge did
not go yard. Come on, Kobe Marshio set me up
for failure. My kid, kolbe, I kid a lot of
juice from him, a lot of fun yesterday, Judge and
(04:38):
the Yankees, they did win today, but they lost that
game yesterday. So anyways, Philly's back in action once again. Yeah,
we'reubbing all sorts of issues with our internet connection here today.
Draft King a sportsbook has the fightings Game four against
the Marlins. Here, Christopher Santez on a mountain minus one
(05:00):
forty eight. Marlins are plus one twenty one total coming
in at seven and a half. Sancha has been dominant
alright with him again on this one. As far as
the pitching props are concerned strikeouts, he's at six plus
as well. I could see the Marlins continue in on
that streak, So give me the over five and a half.
As far as Christopher Sanchez strikeouts, you have to like
the Phillies to win again. And oh, by the way, tomorrow, yes, tomorrow,
(05:25):
give me some baseball music. Brace let's go, I like
when I talk to myself on the third person. We're
gonna be live from Exfinity Live at three pm. My Self, Powers,
Luke Arkaney, the Gambler Gang, anybody roll through We'll be
at eleven hundred Social right out there on the corner
(05:47):
of Exfinity Live with the beautiful Citizens Bank Park in
our backdrop. It's gonna be incredible as the Mets and
Phillies get it going for a best of three this
weekend series, best the three game, three games series, whatever.
And we're gonna be live tomorrow from X Men and
Life starting at three pm. So if you're in the area,
(06:07):
stop on by. Of course come through. Xfinity Live doesn't
cause you anything, and you know we'll have some fun, creates,
some content. I think Natalie's gonna be rolling through hopefully,
h come one, come all. Sam oxtould be back at
the studio. He's pushing all the right buttons. So in
that series for first place potentially.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yeah. If the Phillies win tonight and the Mets lose,
they're tied for first place in the NL East. So
this is a massive series that we have, it says
the Big Park this weekend.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Great series, man, it's always fun when you get the
Mets fans down here. Hopefully not as big as last time.
The last time I went to a Mets Phillies game,
I was blown away by how many Mets fans were
in the building. Was that for the playoffs? No? Actually
I did go to a Mets Phillies game in the
playoffs last year and they ended up winning that game,
(06:53):
but it was a regular season game and I went
with Powers. Powers is a Mets fan. It's all good,
it's all good. It's not good when he hits the
tax messacer like nobody cares about the Mets. Like everyone's
like just playing the Phillies. Nobody, Like she's texting us
about pedalons, Like, shut up out, nobody cares about the Mets.
I can, but I went to a game last year
and could not believe my eyes at how many Mets
(07:16):
fans were there.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Well, you know, I felt that against the Yankees last year,
Like I remember I going to Yankees Phillies for the
season game as Assistants Bank Park, and there was just
Yankees took that place over, took it over.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
And I'd never seen anything like that.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I've been in Mets games where there's a lot of
Mets fans that will come down, but I've never seen
Citisens Bank Park.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Be taken over like it was against the Yankees last year.
And it was a really ugly game.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
It was one of those where the Yankees won by
like double digit runs, but you could from the from
the first inning, it was just like, this feels like
Yankees home game more than a Phillies home game.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
I've never, like, have have have New York fans gotten
more radical, more juvenated over the last few and radical,
I mean in a not a negative way. I mean,
well you could use it a negative way. Yeah, oh absolutely, yeah.
We can go down that path all day at a
glue Republican. So what I would say is like what
(08:13):
took place with the Knicks fans? Right, yeah, and of
course you got winning teams, everything is a hell of
a lot better. But they come in and then you
just brought up the Yankees. I just talked about the Mets.
They've always had great fans and the fans that would travel,
and of course we know that how expensive those prices
are for those tickets in their home fields come down
(08:34):
ninety five quick trip, a little bit cheaper in Philly.
Plus a lot of people probably live around here and
so on and so forth. But like it feels like
the New York sports fan is just take it a
step up.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
I think they've had some success and when you taste
a little bit of success, a lot of people don't
know how to handle success. Where you look at the
Knicks the last five years, the Mets that had a
great run last year, and then with Steve Cohen when
he bought the team, they rejuvenated. Of course, the Yankees
make the World Series last year for the first time
since two thousand and nine, so they've had a lot
of success. And the Rangers have had some good years
(09:07):
I think, not that I really follow hockey, but I
think they have. So they've had some success, and once
you taste success, not a lot of people know to
handle it. And I don't know if New York fans
are to handle success, but I do feel like they've
leveled up. I also think Knicks fans are a different
breed of New York fans or any American sports fan base.
New York fans are just absolute lunatic lunatics, psychoes. So
(09:28):
when they're relevant, when the next irrelevant, Knicks fans are
gonna be center stage, so you think, just oh, this
is the New York fan base.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Knicks fans are just different. Knicks fans are. They're maniacs. Nuts. Yeah, nuts.
I kind of respect it and he started to respect it.
Here's what I would say, Oh yeah, we know that,
Well you're die. I'm not one of them. But I
do want to say this that when if the Philadelphia
seventy six ers did build that arena downtown, I feel
(09:57):
like that we could have got that type of reaction
following games, regular season games, just partying in the street, you know,
how we do it. It would have been the same way.
And and the fact that we're not and we're out
in you know, the stadium complex. It's just a different vibe.
But you put that in the city, it would have
(10:18):
carried out in the streets maybe.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
But I think that's really unique Knicks fans because most
other fan bases, when they do that, everyone just gets
killed for doing that because it's like, why are you
like act like you've been there before, even if you haven't,
act like you've been there before. And Philly fans have,
especially with the Eagles, We've been able to taste a
lot of success over the last decade, so we have
(10:41):
been there before, so you can't you can't pretend like
you haven't. And I think for Knicks fans it's so
unique with them where they don't they even when they
have been there before, they act like they haven't been
there before. But that that would be It would not.
It would be distasteful if every fan base did that.
It's just they're so crazy that they can do that.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
It's interesting. Yeah, look, I'm excited for this weekend series.
As you pointed out, with first place on the line
here it's June. Gives us something to focus on, although
we're always watching the Phillies and you know, bring on
the Mets. Let's go here. It's gonna be a lot
of fun, all right. So we got Sam Oustrien coming
down the home stretch here once again. A lot of
all over the place again with the NBA Finals going on,
(11:20):
and not a lot of everything else, or not a
lot of anything else happening. I will say this much
of the Eagles. It did have a little bit of
a training camp slash meeting for the first time today
and there's some really good stuff on the timeline courtesy
of the Eagles, including Nick Sirianni with a strong message
to the team the celebration is over, preparation is here.
(11:41):
Sam Austrey, he said, treat praise like perfume. Sniff it,
don't drink it. It's poison. You know what he's trying
to sound like, right, I don't Nick Saban? Okay, the
rat poise out, which is a good thing.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Well, Serrani said he spent a lot of the off
season spending time with coaches and teams who have had success,
and that's what his off season was about, learning how
to deal with success and how to respond and potentially repeat.
So Nick Saban is probably a guy he reached out to.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Yeah, he's not a bad guy to reach out to
to learn from.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
And that's what I love about Nick Sirianni and what
I've always loved about him is he's constantly trying to
get better. He's like a sponge and he's constantly consuming
any information anything to give him or his team and edge.
He wants it all and he's always reaching out to resources,
not just in football, but in all sports. He reached
out to Jay Wright to learn about coaching in this
city even though it's obviously way different, but still coaching
(12:35):
in this city and sustaining success and all that stuff.
So I respect Nixciarroni for doing that and the Eagle
should benefit because of it.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
One quick one, as far as the NFL is concerned,
and I asked, who oh, I asked, Kyle Fisher. Yes,
here's this question to you. So I'm curious where you
go with this angle. And I you know, a couple
of years ago, I was screaming, you know, from the
mountaintops that I would need a new blood at the
quarterback position. I want a new blood. And then all
of a sudden, a guy by the name Patrick Mahomes
jumped on the scene. Joe Burrow came and we had
(13:03):
all these in the course Lamar Jag like, we had
all these great quarterbacks just come and it was the
perfect time. This was dating back, you know. Even this
is like Joe Flacco with the Raven. This is Ben Roth,
Thesbergy or Philip Rivers like those days. And my wish
was granted. We got some great new blood at the
quarterback position. And I'm now having the same ish vibes
(13:28):
that I once was about the quarterback position, specifically coming
out of the AFC. I'm getting a little tired, and
I'm not like, don't oh, I'm not gonna watch it. No,
And if that controls all, tap my vein, you know,
inject it, let's go. I just I want new plood
in the AFC. Sam I can't take you know. It
(13:50):
comes off of yesterday with the Ravens and they signed
Jyry Alexander and of course Lamar was talking about the
Buffalo Bilsi's out for vengeance and I'm just like you
guys are gonna continue to do this congratulate said, You're
gonna lose to the Chiefs again. Yeah, Well, isn't as
simple as that in your mind? Is there a new team?
Is there something new coming out of the AFC for
you that you think of?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
I think you gets always easy to say, oh, the
Chiefs will just do it again, And when you have
a differentiating opinion, it's usually wrong, because that's if you
bet against Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid and that combo, you're
usually proven wrong. We as Eagles fans, no, firsthand, it
is so difficult to come off of losing a super Bowl,
way more difficult than losing a championship game, way more
(14:31):
difficult than winning a super Bowl. We experienced a firsthand
when we had great success early in the season coming
off that Super Bowl loss in twenty twenty two, great
success early on in twenty twenty three, completely collapse, finished
the season one and six, first round playoff exit in
a wild card game to the Bucks. And then you
can look at countless examples the Niners last year after
(14:52):
they lost the Super Bowl to the Chiefs. They had
a disastrous year and plugged with injuries. It is really
hard to lose a and the Chiefs have some question
marks and it's not like this is an easy conference.
The Chiefs have been able to make it look like
it's an easy conference because they're always in the mix
and they're always coming out on top. Three straight super
Bowl appearances. As we know, the Bills are a really
good team. The Ravens are a really good team. The
(15:15):
Bengals are coming this season. There's a lot of teams
that I feel like there's a window for this season,
and I don't think we're gonna be looking at a
Chiefs and super Bowl again, just because of what history
tells us.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
It is so difficult to come off of losing a
Super Bowl. Interesting, all right, Well, I would definitely sign
up for that. Give me some more of that if
that's the case, because I just want something new out
of the AFC, And I know Kyle is making the
case for the Chargers, and I made him get a
little bit more juice behind his opinion. It's tough to
(15:45):
sit here and say that the Chargers are going to
take that jump up, of course if they don't get
better production from their quarterback in specific times like the playoffs.
Justin Herbert, but you have to look at what Harbaugh
is and how he is able to build a franchise,
whether it's a at Michigan or at Stanford or of
course what he did with the forty nine Ers. So
potentially could be the Chargers this year in LA you know,
(16:09):
coming out of the AFC, I do like what you
said about Cincinnati. Cincinnati has to make the playoffs this year,
although there will be massive changes. Although they did not
make the playoffs now two straight.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Years and last year, and both those years they started
off really poorly. Two years ago Burrow gets hurt, so
there's somewhat of an excuse for that. Last year, they
just started off really poorly and there were some contract
issues with Jamar Chase and everyone going into the year.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
But they made a great run. Like they looked really
good that second half of the year.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
They were probably a top ten, maybe probably top seven
or eight team in the league that second half of
that season. It just wasn't enough, even though they went
on a great run to ultimately qualify for the postseason.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
I think if you have one of the best quarterbacks
in the.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
League, you have the offensive talent that they have, you
have to invest in the defense, which they did a
little bit of more. I think this team is ready
to make a jump into contend their status and get
back into the postseason.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
But to your porn about the Chargers, it's all about
the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
And you know, Sean Bernard really has a monopoly on
the Justin Herbert discourse because as you talk about the Chargers,
think of him, and Justin Herbert you think about him.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
I just think about Sean Bernard. So credit to him
for that. But he's like Steven a with the Cowboys. Yes, yes, right,
but yes yes, Like when the Cowboys lose, he's going
to be doing something stupid. Now, Justin Herbert and I'm
a Justin Herbert fan. Like if you say you got
to check a box here, you're a fan or you
think the dude's a fraud, I'm a fan.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I think he's a good quarterback. Fan or fraud, I
Lean Moore fan. But I'm definitely very split in the
middle because the postseason production. I think he's a really
good quarterback and shows that regular season. The postseason production
is a series concern, and I think he has the
right coach in place now going into year two. Yes,
I think their team, their roster actually improved quite a
bit from last season. But Jim Horball keeps saying, he's like,
(17:54):
we don't. Justin Herbert's not the problem at all. It's us,
me and my coaching staff and our entire So that's
to elevate our game to meet Justin Herbert's standard. That's
what Jim Harball said earlier this week. So whether he
really believes that or not is one thing. Justin Nubers
are really talented quarterback. The postseason production has to be there.
But there's no doubt that I think it's it's in him.
(18:15):
It's just Horble has to get it out of him.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
He threw for over five thousand yards his second season. Yeah,
that was probably his best year in the league, sixty
five percent. Look, his numbers are great for sixty eight
percent the following year forty seven hundred, So you can
make the case that that was his best year. Twenty
five touchdowns to ten thirty eight fifteen. Last year, he
had three picks the entire season.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Yes, three sixtyly really impressive to the three picks an
entire season.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
But you know what happens in the in the playoff game.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Four picks he four picks he folded, exceeded his interception
total from the regular season. Four picks in the playoffs
against the Texans, a game that they just got demolished,
and a large part was because of his quarterback play
twelve point eight qbr. The production has to be better
in the postseason and it falls squarely on his shoulders
(19:03):
when that game did. Yeah, that game, no doubt about.
There's no excuses being made. The only thing I would
say is like, can't you learn from that? Can't you
improve from that? Isn't I think if you have the
way mentality, Yeah, and I think he does. I think
he's a very hard worker. I think he's a mentally
strong guy. I think if you have the way mentality,
it's definitely something that could and should drive you.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
But we're about to find out this year. The West
and the AFC, of course, is uh, you know, commanded
by or controlled by all things Chiefs there minus one
twenty to win that division. Broncos three to one, Chargers
plus three ten could be a good time to take
a flyer on the Broncos are Chargers to win that division.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I think the Broncos are being slightly overvalued. Bonix is
a good quarterback. I think he had a really nice season.
I think they're being slightly overvalued because of the season
he had and because of he kind of surpassed him
and Sewn Payton post surpassed all expectations for that for
their first year in Denver. So I think the Broncers
are being overvalued a bit, and I think the Chargers
are the team to take.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
I think I'm gonna have to go head to have
with Sean Bernard here. I think I'm going head to
have a Bernard. I'm gonna say, put your money where
your mouth ish on because I think the Chargers are
coming for that division. Damn it. I am with you.
I'm with you plus three ten minus one twenty. I
believe you said the Chiefs worry. Yes, that's not a
(20:20):
crazy price for them to win a division.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
That's Vegas kind of telling you that they expect the
Chiefs to maybe to take a little bit of a
back seat coming off that Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Looks oh god, well yeah, I mean, what are that you.
I don't know exactly what they've been the last few years.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I'd venture to say it was it was a longer
number than minus one twenty.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
I mean that speaks to the strength of the division. Yep.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
It also speaks to the weakening of that Chiefs roster
football season. Right around the corner, it's here. It's June nineteenth,
Happy holidays, and it's here.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yes, it is happy holiday. It's good calling that one
federal holiday and uh uh, great stuff there all right?
At that? Well, hey man, bottom line is nobody's here.
We were. I won't lie to you. I was like,
is it okay if I come in and work? Because
I don't want that to be read some wrong way.
I wanted. I wanted to work. I wanted I like Thursdays.
(21:09):
You come in on a Thursday. I'm like, is that
gonna be frowned upon it? I don't want to be
on that world. No, not every found for work then,
even if it's Christmas or whatever all day. Yeah. I mean,
in this industry, you work, it just is. But I
was able to slide out on Tuesday. That was my
excuse to it. I'm like, I gotta get in there
on Thursday. All right, once again, we're gonna be live tomorrow.
It's Finity Live. Let's go three pm. Uh Sam. A
(21:29):
couple quick ones before we get out of here. So
first of all, you dope, he has joined the top
tier as one of the higher paid coaches in the NBA.
Good move by the Houston Rockets.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Great move by the Houston Rockets, one of the premier
coaches in the NBA. On that note, I saw this
point made somewhere and it's a great point. Executives around
the NBA have to be really pissed at the Knicks
for what they did by by kind trying to contact
and trying.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
To poach all these other coaches.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Yeah, you know what it did to those coaches and
that those coaches agents. They went to their team saying, oh,
we have other guys who wants you. Now we have leverage,
you need to pay me more money. And I think
you saw that with the Billy Donovan when he got
a pay raise after after the Knicks tried to poach him.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
You're seeing that now. We really deserve it too. I
don't think you deserved it.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
But if you're gonna say you're gonna keep me around here,
and you're saying you want me, well, then pay me
more money. You're letting me go talk to the Knicks
because and now executives are probably pissed at that, at
the Knicks for that, and Leon Rose for that, because
that gave those coaches and their agents and opportunity to
take advantage of their front office and get paid a
little more. So I think that's part of the Udoka extension.
But he is certainly a well deserved guy to receive
(22:35):
something like that.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
All right, Caitlyn Clark tonight? How many points and how
many three pointers made? Who's she playing the Valkyries?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Oh? The Golden State team? Golden State team is a
twenty six points?
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Four threes? Four threes? All right, I'm gonna put that
in the same game, parlay on and see what I
can get there. And finally, final score tonight where we
at six point spread, who goes off? Who's the main
who's the leading scorer in the game? Not named SGA,
not named that SGA. I think it's Jaylen Williams.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
He's just been playing so well and has the ball
in his hand initiating offense more. I think Chet has
a decent game. I also think you're gonna have a
huge Alex Crusoe game. Like a people are gonna be
looking at Alex Cruiser after tonight and being like, wait,
should do you actually give our MVP vote to this guy?
He's been that good and he's been that impactful for
the team. I think Cruiser has a great game. I
think the Thunders defense has a great game. I think
the Thunder become NBA champions today for the first time
(23:28):
in franchise history. And there is nobody around the NBA player, coach,
executive owner who deserves an NBA championship more than Sam Presty.
So it's gonna be cool to watch him lift that
Larry of Brian tonight.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
All right, what do you got cooking over at the score, sir?
What are you working on? That's a good question. Great article.
As far as the MVP odds, Concer, we gotta get
that on the timeline. Great stuff. A lot of NBA.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Draft stuff coming, a lot of NBA draft stuff coming
tomorrow and next week up until Wednesday. So focusing on
the NBA Draft, assuming this series is over for tonight
and some twenty twenty six odds, then Kevin Durant Janis
are stealing the steal in the headline still, So I did.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Expect that KD trade to go down pretty soon. Damn it.
I did have that written down. As far as Katie
to get into, he's got three teams listed. I have
no issue with him saying I want to go to X,
Y and Z, but it's not up to the Suns
to do right by him, like forgive me now. But
they shouldn't do right by them at all.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
But they also have no leverage because they should want
to move on from KD as much as he wants
to move on from them, like that KD experiment was
a disaster, So they have no leverage this in the scenario,
they can't ask for the moon h.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
So well, where's KT end up at? It's tough.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Look the Heat. I like the heat as a fit.
They probably can offer the worst package. Yep, the rockets
I have can offer the best package. The problem is
if you're giving up assets for KD, that means you're
forfeiting and punpting on Giannis and you're acknowledging that he's
probably just gonna stay in Milwaukee forever.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
So I think that's really tough.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
From from the Rockets perspective, I'm gonna say the Spurs,
I just I think they'll have enough to give up
without giving up their core of Stefan Castle, Wemby dearon
Fox and my missing an't even the number two pick
in the draft whoever that is probably Dillan Harper. But
I think they'll still have enough to give the Suns,
who are gonna have to lower their asking price.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I think it'll be the Spurs, all right. Great stuff
once again, you can find Sam. I don't think socials
at s O s H t Roy Sam Austrey full name,
our full last name, first initial, of course read them
at the Score. Just retweeted some stuff over on our
socials on the station at Fox PHL Gambler. If you
missed anything, check us out online at FOXPHO gambler dot com.
(25:38):
The programming rolls on. Coming up next football is King
with Beef and McLay, followed by On the Clock with
Sam Ostre and Jack Forrest. A brand new addition come
in your way. I'm sure that there's a little bit
probably that you said two nights ago about Ace Bailey
that probably you would say differently now knowing that this
guy has canceled his workouts and wants nothing to do
(26:02):
with this organization.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Very strange, yes, except I've been pretty consistent advocating for
the Sixers to go away from me nice, so nothing's
changing on that front for me. I've been saying VG
Edgecombe is the guy for them at number three, and
they should continue to move in that direction. And look,
Ace Bailey might drop to five because the Hornets are
picking four, and the Hornets don't have a need for
ast Bailey when you have Brandon Miller, LaMelo Ball, Miles
(26:25):
Bridges and a bunch of those guys. I'd rather take
conkor Nippler or someone like that. So aast Bailey could
slip all the way to five or six, but the
Sixers should should just pass on him and get rid
of the aast Bailey experience from Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
He's making a name for himself. Not a positive man
ope either. It's one of these guys where it's like
I'm already getting a bad vibe from him coming into
the league A and then B once he gets into
the League's I didn't say any of that everybody had
something to say. This came out of nowhere, blah blah blah,
and it's just like, I want no parts of him
for Philly, real quick on your boyfriend Maryland dropping though,
(26:59):
what's going on there?
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Defensive concerns. They's slow footed. It's like, will you pay
him at the power forward or center? I still think
whoever takes him is hitting a home run. I think
he's a chance to be a top three player in
this draft. So a lot of teams that are worried
about the defense and the size, he's a slow footed
guy or just missing out on the skill that you
have in a big man. So Derek Queen is awesome
prospect to me. If the Wizards who just had him
(27:24):
in his backyard, he just played in Maryland. He's from Maryland,
so they had him in high school there before he
went to IMG.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
If the Wizards really pass.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
On this guy who would perfectly pair with Alex Saher
as a rim protecting, rim running center, I'd be really
shocked and just it would be kind of weird how
much intel they have, or maybe they didn't do their
due diligence when they had him in his backyard, Because
Derek Queen should not slip past the Wizards at six.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Julius Randall comp No, it's not fair. It's not fair
at all.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Queen is a phenomenal passer and a playmaker. Julis Randall's
game is just bully ball downhill.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Yeah. I don't like that company, right, all right? Well
I was high and Julius random when he was coming
out of college. That feels like an attorney. Didn't that
team miss the tournament for Kentucky? I believe so? Yeah,
I like he was a great prospect. Yeah, I liked
him a lot. And then look at the look at
the career he's turning. There's nothing, no, man, No, he's
been a hell of a player, hell of a player.
I was right with that analysis. How about that?
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (28:18):
But today again, it matters where you end up. And
he's been on how many teams already? Lakers, Knicks and
that Wolves.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
He's only been on three unless he was somewhere between
Lakers and Knicks, was he?
Speaker 1 (28:27):
I don't think he was, now that you bring it up, now,
I say it like that, But all.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Right, great stuff by Say Halikins for one season, Lakers,
four years, one season, Nicks five timber Wolves.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
About that one more time for the people he was
part of that. Anthony Davis Street. All right, we're gonna
be live tomorrow three pm. We'll talk to you from
Inxfinity Live. Uh football is king his next fallowed by
on the clock. Everybody enjoyed the rest of your day.
Go Phills and uh let's get a game seven. We'll
talk to you piece
Sean Brace on the Dally Ticket Daily Ticket on Fox
Sports Radio, The Gamblers Let's go. I love it. Everybody's
got the answers Daily Take with you here. Shunbury's riding
so low NBA Finals Game six tonight okay see minus
(00:26):
six on the road in Indiana, and Julian Edloluttle earlier
today said you know what could potentially see OKC winning
this game yet not covering the number? I had some
really good details numbers back it up with his take.
Interesting because I just don't know if with the Pacers
without Halliburn out there, we'll have enough firepower because we
(00:52):
just know, Okayse's the better team. I get it. The
game isn't played on paper. You're talking about the emotions
in game six, and they're tough spot. You know, Game
seven's on the line here right like you don't want
to and anything could happen in game seven and you
don't want to get there. I'm having a hard time
saying that Pacers are going to cover the number. I
(01:13):
think I would just be happy they're taking okay see,
and if it goes to a game seven, then were
all rewarded. Here's the deal. If it goes to a
game seven. There is no way in hell the Pacers
are winning that game. Of course we know that. What
would be to spread ten eleven? You got an eleven
point game in a game seven? Yeah, you're laying that number. Yeah,
(01:40):
you'd have to because there's no way the Pacers are
winning that game. So I'm just going to back Okay,
see here, small, nothing too crazy. I do like the
McConnell angle. I do like the under and Halliburton as
far as his numbers are concerned. Again, fourteen and a
half on DraftKings sportsbook props that are listed for uh
Tyres Haliburn, who potentially could miss the game. It's been
(02:04):
really weird. He's going to give it a go, but
he could be a little limited here. He was asked
yesterday about his approach to the injury.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
How smart do you have to be, I guess in
this situation or are you not even thinking in those
terms at this point?
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Well, I think it depends on who you ask. I mean,
you're asking me, so, uh.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
I think I have to be as smart as I
as I want to be to understand the risks, ask
the right questions.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
But I'm a competitor. I want to play. I'm gonna
do everything in my power to play, and that's just
what it is. Yeah, I'll back okay see tonight. Closing
up everybody, A lot of people did say okay see
in five. I had okay see in five, Okay, okay
see in six. Seems to be a pretty good consensus
for a lot of people out there. I never thought
it was a sweet thought Indiana would get one, but
(02:50):
potentially here they are with an opportunity to get to
and force a game seven. I'm not sure if that's
going to be the case, but uh, I think we
would all prefer to see a game seven at the end.
But again, it's it's a tough spot here, and I
just do believe that the better team is Oklahoma City,
So why not as far as that is concerned. Sam
Astry back with this, I'm back. I'm great to have. Yeah,
(03:12):
hit on that a little bit. I did want to
get in real quick if we could though. A dominant
performance by Ranger Suarez last night and the Phillies finding
a way to win a game again against the Marlins
four to two. But Ranger Suarez has just been unbelievable
and it's been a lot of fun to be a
part to believe in him number one, and then to
be able to go to watch him go out there.
(03:33):
Last eight starts, he's only given up seven earned runs
twelve walks. He's third in Major League Baseball on e
r A. And it's funny because Bob Winkle, who does
a great job covering all things Phillies, he's just like,
should have made him a setup man. Like, you know,
they got an embarrassment of riches, and somebody's got to
go to the penn. Like if Aaron Nola comes back
(03:55):
and he was he's not, he's now going to be extended.
But if he did come back, he was paid to money.
Somebody has to go to the pen. And I didn't
think Ranger Suarez going to the pen would have been
now set up man. I don't know. I wasn't a
part of those conversations, but yeah, he is too damn good.
He clearly is too damn good for that role. He
(04:16):
is a bona fide badass in this pitching rotation and
just another ho home seven innings last night, had the
six total strikeouts cashed in on that. Unfortunately Judge did
not go yard. Come on, Kobe Marshio set me up
for failure. My kid, kolbe, I kid a lot of
juice from him, a lot of fun yesterday, Judge and
(04:38):
the Yankees, they did win today, but they lost that
game yesterday. So anyways, Philly's back in action once again. Yeah,
we'reubbing all sorts of issues with our internet connection here today.
Draft King a sportsbook has the fightings Game four against
the Marlins. Here, Christopher Santez on a mountain minus one
(05:00):
forty eight. Marlins are plus one twenty one total coming
in at seven and a half. Sancha has been dominant
alright with him again on this one. As far as
the pitching props are concerned strikeouts, he's at six plus
as well. I could see the Marlins continue in on
that streak, So give me the over five and a half.
As far as Christopher Sanchez strikeouts, you have to like
the Phillies to win again. And oh, by the way, tomorrow, yes, tomorrow,
(05:25):
give me some baseball music. Brace let's go, I like
when I talk to myself on the third person. We're
gonna be live from Exfinity Live at three pm. My Self, Powers,
Luke Arkaney, the Gambler Gang, anybody roll through We'll be
at eleven hundred Social right out there on the corner
(05:47):
of Exfinity Live with the beautiful Citizens Bank Park in
our backdrop. It's gonna be incredible as the Mets and
Phillies get it going for a best of three this
weekend series, best the three game, three games series, whatever.
And we're gonna be live tomorrow from X Men and
Life starting at three pm. So if you're in the area,
(06:07):
stop on by. Of course come through. Xfinity Live doesn't
cause you anything, and you know we'll have some fun, creates,
some content. I think Natalie's gonna be rolling through hopefully,
h come one, come all. Sam oxtould be back at
the studio. He's pushing all the right buttons. So in
that series for first place potentially.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Yeah. If the Phillies win tonight and the Mets lose,
they're tied for first place in the NL East. So
this is a massive series that we have, it says
the Big Park this weekend.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Great series, man, it's always fun when you get the
Mets fans down here. Hopefully not as big as last time.
The last time I went to a Mets Phillies game,
I was blown away by how many Mets fans were
in the building. Was that for the playoffs? No? Actually
I did go to a Mets Phillies game in the
playoffs last year and they ended up winning that game,
(06:53):
but it was a regular season game and I went
with Powers. Powers is a Mets fan. It's all good,
it's all good. It's not good when he hits the
tax messacer like nobody cares about the Mets. Like everyone's
like just playing the Phillies. Nobody, Like she's texting us
about pedalons, Like, shut up out, nobody cares about the Mets.
I can, but I went to a game last year
and could not believe my eyes at how many Mets
(07:16):
fans were there.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Well, you know, I felt that against the Yankees last year,
Like I remember I going to Yankees Phillies for the
season game as Assistants Bank Park, and there was just
Yankees took that place over, took it over.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
And I'd never seen anything like that.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
I've been in Mets games where there's a lot of
Mets fans that will come down, but I've never seen
Citisens Bank Park.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Be taken over like it was against the Yankees last year.
And it was a really ugly game.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
It was one of those where the Yankees won by
like double digit runs, but you could from the from
the first inning, it was just like, this feels like
Yankees home game more than a Phillies home game.
Speaker 1 (07:50):
I've never, like, have have have New York fans gotten
more radical, more juvenated over the last few and radical,
I mean in a not a negative way. I mean,
well you could use it a negative way. Yeah, oh absolutely, yeah.
We can go down that path all day at a
glue Republican. So what I would say is like what
(08:13):
took place with the Knicks fans? Right, yeah, and of
course you got winning teams, everything is a hell of
a lot better. But they come in and then you
just brought up the Yankees. I just talked about the Mets.
They've always had great fans and the fans that would travel,
and of course we know that how expensive those prices
are for those tickets in their home fields come down
(08:34):
ninety five quick trip, a little bit cheaper in Philly.
Plus a lot of people probably live around here and
so on and so forth. But like it feels like
the New York sports fan is just take it a
step up.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
I think they've had some success and when you taste
a little bit of success, a lot of people don't
know how to handle success. Where you look at the
Knicks the last five years, the Mets that had a
great run last year, and then with Steve Cohen when
he bought the team, they rejuvenated. Of course, the Yankees
make the World Series last year for the first time
since two thousand and nine, so they've had a lot
of success. And the Rangers have had some good years
(09:07):
I think, not that I really follow hockey, but I
think they have. So they've had some success, and once
you taste success, not a lot of people know to
handle it. And I don't know if New York fans
are to handle success, but I do feel like they've
leveled up. I also think Knicks fans are a different
breed of New York fans or any American sports fan base.
New York fans are just absolute lunatic lunatics, psychoes. So
(09:28):
when they're relevant, when the next irrelevant, Knicks fans are
gonna be center stage, so you think, just oh, this
is the New York fan base.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Knicks fans are just different. Knicks fans are. They're maniacs. Nuts. Yeah, nuts.
I kind of respect it and he started to respect it.
Here's what I would say, Oh yeah, we know that,
Well you're die. I'm not one of them. But I
do want to say this that when if the Philadelphia
seventy six ers did build that arena downtown, I feel
(09:57):
like that we could have got that type of reaction
following games, regular season games, just partying in the street, you know,
how we do it. It would have been the same way.
And and the fact that we're not and we're out
in you know, the stadium complex. It's just a different vibe.
But you put that in the city, it would have
(10:18):
carried out in the streets maybe.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
But I think that's really unique Knicks fans because most
other fan bases, when they do that, everyone just gets
killed for doing that because it's like, why are you
like act like you've been there before, even if you haven't,
act like you've been there before. And Philly fans have,
especially with the Eagles, We've been able to taste a
lot of success over the last decade, so we have
(10:41):
been there before, so you can't you can't pretend like
you haven't. And I think for Knicks fans it's so
unique with them where they don't they even when they
have been there before, they act like they haven't been
there before. But that that would be It would not.
It would be distasteful if every fan base did that.
It's just they're so crazy that they can do that.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
It's interesting. Yeah, look, I'm excited for this weekend series.
As you pointed out, with first place on the line
here it's June. Gives us something to focus on, although
we're always watching the Phillies and you know, bring on
the Mets. Let's go here. It's gonna be a lot
of fun, all right. So we got Sam Oustrien coming
down the home stretch here once again. A lot of
all over the place again with the NBA Finals going on,
(11:20):
and not a lot of everything else, or not a
lot of anything else happening. I will say this much
of the Eagles. It did have a little bit of
a training camp slash meeting for the first time today
and there's some really good stuff on the timeline courtesy
of the Eagles, including Nick Sirianni with a strong message
to the team the celebration is over, preparation is here.
(11:41):
Sam Austrey, he said, treat praise like perfume. Sniff it,
don't drink it. It's poison. You know what he's trying
to sound like, right, I don't Nick Saban? Okay, the
rat poise out, which is a good thing.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Well, Serrani said he spent a lot of the off
season spending time with coaches and teams who have had success,
and that's what his off season was about, learning how
to deal with success and how to respond and potentially repeat.
So Nick Saban is probably a guy he reached out to.
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Yeah, he's not a bad guy to reach out to
to learn from.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
And that's what I love about Nick Sirianni and what
I've always loved about him is he's constantly trying to
get better. He's like a sponge and he's constantly consuming
any information anything to give him or his team and edge.
He wants it all and he's always reaching out to resources,
not just in football, but in all sports. He reached
out to Jay Wright to learn about coaching in this
city even though it's obviously way different, but still coaching
(12:35):
in this city and sustaining success and all that stuff.
So I respect Nixciarroni for doing that and the Eagle
should benefit because of it.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
One quick one, as far as the NFL is concerned,
and I asked, who oh, I asked, Kyle Fisher. Yes,
here's this question to you. So I'm curious where you
go with this angle. And I you know, a couple
of years ago, I was screaming, you know, from the
mountaintops that I would need a new blood at the
quarterback position. I want a new blood. And then all
of a sudden, a guy by the name Patrick Mahomes
jumped on the scene. Joe Burrow came and we had
(13:03):
all these in the course Lamar Jag like, we had
all these great quarterbacks just come and it was the
perfect time. This was dating back, you know. Even this
is like Joe Flacco with the Raven. This is Ben Roth,
Thesbergy or Philip Rivers like those days. And my wish
was granted. We got some great new blood at the
quarterback position. And I'm now having the same ish vibes
(13:28):
that I once was about the quarterback position, specifically coming
out of the AFC. I'm getting a little tired, and
I'm not like, don't oh, I'm not gonna watch it. No,
And if that controls all, tap my vein, you know,
inject it, let's go. I just I want new plood
in the AFC. Sam I can't take you know. It
(13:50):
comes off of yesterday with the Ravens and they signed
Jyry Alexander and of course Lamar was talking about the
Buffalo Bilsi's out for vengeance and I'm just like you
guys are gonna continue to do this congratulate said, You're
gonna lose to the Chiefs again. Yeah, Well, isn't as
simple as that in your mind? Is there a new team?
Is there something new coming out of the AFC for
you that you think of?
Speaker 2 (14:09):
I think you gets always easy to say, oh, the
Chiefs will just do it again, And when you have
a differentiating opinion, it's usually wrong, because that's if you
bet against Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid and that combo, you're
usually proven wrong. We as Eagles fans, no, firsthand, it
is so difficult to come off of losing a super Bowl,
way more difficult than losing a championship game, way more
(14:31):
difficult than winning a super Bowl. We experienced a firsthand
when we had great success early in the season coming
off that Super Bowl loss in twenty twenty two, great
success early on in twenty twenty three, completely collapse, finished
the season one and six, first round playoff exit in
a wild card game to the Bucks. And then you
can look at countless examples the Niners last year after
(14:52):
they lost the Super Bowl to the Chiefs. They had
a disastrous year and plugged with injuries. It is really
hard to lose a and the Chiefs have some question
marks and it's not like this is an easy conference.
The Chiefs have been able to make it look like
it's an easy conference because they're always in the mix
and they're always coming out on top. Three straight super
Bowl appearances. As we know, the Bills are a really
good team. The Ravens are a really good team. The
(15:15):
Bengals are coming this season. There's a lot of teams
that I feel like there's a window for this season,
and I don't think we're gonna be looking at a
Chiefs and super Bowl again, just because of what history
tells us.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
It is so difficult to come off of losing a
Super Bowl. Interesting, all right, Well, I would definitely sign
up for that. Give me some more of that if
that's the case, because I just want something new out
of the AFC, And I know Kyle is making the
case for the Chargers, and I made him get a
little bit more juice behind his opinion. It's tough to
(15:45):
sit here and say that the Chargers are going to
take that jump up, of course if they don't get
better production from their quarterback in specific times like the playoffs.
Justin Herbert, but you have to look at what Harbaugh
is and how he is able to build a franchise,
whether it's a at Michigan or at Stanford or of
course what he did with the forty nine Ers. So
potentially could be the Chargers this year in LA you know,
(16:09):
coming out of the AFC, I do like what you
said about Cincinnati. Cincinnati has to make the playoffs this year,
although there will be massive changes. Although they did not
make the playoffs now two straight.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
Years and last year, and both those years they started
off really poorly. Two years ago Burrow gets hurt, so
there's somewhat of an excuse for that. Last year, they
just started off really poorly and there were some contract
issues with Jamar Chase and everyone going into the year.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
But they made a great run. Like they looked really
good that second half of the year.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
They were probably a top ten, maybe probably top seven
or eight team in the league that second half of
that season. It just wasn't enough, even though they went
on a great run to ultimately qualify for the postseason.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
I think if you have one of the best quarterbacks
in the.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
League, you have the offensive talent that they have, you
have to invest in the defense, which they did a
little bit of more. I think this team is ready
to make a jump into contend their status and get
back into the postseason.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
But to your porn about the Chargers, it's all about
the quarterback.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
And you know, Sean Bernard really has a monopoly on
the Justin Herbert discourse because as you talk about the Chargers,
think of him, and Justin Herbert you think about him.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
I just think about Sean Bernard. So credit to him
for that. But he's like Steven a with the Cowboys. Yes, yes, right,
but yes yes, Like when the Cowboys lose, he's going
to be doing something stupid. Now, Justin Herbert and I'm
a Justin Herbert fan. Like if you say you got
to check a box here, you're a fan or you
think the dude's a fraud, I'm a fan.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
I think he's a good quarterback. Fan or fraud, I
Lean Moore fan. But I'm definitely very split in the
middle because the postseason production. I think he's a really
good quarterback and shows that regular season. The postseason production
is a series concern, and I think he has the
right coach in place now going into year two. Yes,
I think their team, their roster actually improved quite a
bit from last season. But Jim Horball keeps saying, he's like,
(17:54):
we don't. Justin Herbert's not the problem at all. It's us,
me and my coaching staff and our entire So that's
to elevate our game to meet Justin Herbert's standard. That's
what Jim Harball said earlier this week. So whether he
really believes that or not is one thing. Justin Nubers
are really talented quarterback. The postseason production has to be there.
But there's no doubt that I think it's it's in him.
(18:15):
It's just Horble has to get it out of him.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
He threw for over five thousand yards his second season. Yeah,
that was probably his best year in the league, sixty
five percent. Look, his numbers are great for sixty eight
percent the following year forty seven hundred, So you can
make the case that that was his best year. Twenty
five touchdowns to ten thirty eight fifteen. Last year, he
had three picks the entire season.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Yes, three sixtyly really impressive to the three picks an
entire season.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
But you know what happens in the in the playoff game.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Four picks he four picks he folded, exceeded his interception
total from the regular season. Four picks in the playoffs
against the Texans, a game that they just got demolished,
and a large part was because of his quarterback play
twelve point eight qbr. The production has to be better
in the postseason and it falls squarely on his shoulders
(19:03):
when that game did. Yeah, that game, no doubt about.
There's no excuses being made. The only thing I would
say is like, can't you learn from that? Can't you
improve from that? Isn't I think if you have the
way mentality, Yeah, and I think he does. I think
he's a very hard worker. I think he's a mentally
strong guy. I think if you have the way mentality,
it's definitely something that could and should drive you.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
But we're about to find out this year. The West
and the AFC, of course, is uh, you know, commanded
by or controlled by all things Chiefs there minus one
twenty to win that division. Broncos three to one, Chargers
plus three ten could be a good time to take
a flyer on the Broncos are Chargers to win that division.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I think the Broncos are being slightly overvalued. Bonix is
a good quarterback. I think he had a really nice season.
I think they're being slightly overvalued because of the season
he had and because of he kind of surpassed him
and Sewn Payton post surpassed all expectations for that for
their first year in Denver. So I think the Broncers
are being overvalued a bit, and I think the Chargers
are the team to take.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
I think I'm gonna have to go head to have
with Sean Bernard here. I think I'm going head to
have a Bernard. I'm gonna say, put your money where
your mouth ish on because I think the Chargers are
coming for that division. Damn it. I am with you.
I'm with you plus three ten minus one twenty. I
believe you said the Chiefs worry. Yes, that's not a
(20:20):
crazy price for them to win a division.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
That's Vegas kind of telling you that they expect the
Chiefs to maybe to take a little bit of a
back seat coming off that Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Looks oh god, well yeah, I mean, what are that you.
I don't know exactly what they've been the last few years.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I'd venture to say it was it was a longer
number than minus one twenty.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
I mean that speaks to the strength of the division. Yep.
Speaker 2 (20:37):
It also speaks to the weakening of that Chiefs roster
football season. Right around the corner, it's here. It's June nineteenth,
Happy holidays, and it's here.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yes, it is happy holiday. It's good calling that one
federal holiday and uh uh, great stuff there all right?
At that? Well, hey man, bottom line is nobody's here.
We were. I won't lie to you. I was like,
is it okay if I come in and work? Because
I don't want that to be read some wrong way.
I wanted. I wanted to work. I wanted I like Thursdays.
(21:09):
You come in on a Thursday. I'm like, is that
gonna be frowned upon it? I don't want to be
on that world. No, not every found for work then,
even if it's Christmas or whatever all day. Yeah. I mean,
in this industry, you work, it just is. But I
was able to slide out on Tuesday. That was my
excuse to it. I'm like, I gotta get in there
on Thursday. All right, once again, we're gonna be live tomorrow.
It's Finity Live. Let's go three pm. Uh Sam. A
(21:29):
couple quick ones before we get out of here. So
first of all, you dope, he has joined the top
tier as one of the higher paid coaches in the NBA.
Good move by the Houston Rockets.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Great move by the Houston Rockets, one of the premier
coaches in the NBA. On that note, I saw this
point made somewhere and it's a great point. Executives around
the NBA have to be really pissed at the Knicks
for what they did by by kind trying to contact
and trying.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
To poach all these other coaches.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Yeah, you know what it did to those coaches and
that those coaches agents. They went to their team saying, oh,
we have other guys who wants you. Now we have leverage,
you need to pay me more money. And I think
you saw that with the Billy Donovan when he got
a pay raise after after the Knicks tried to poach him.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
You're seeing that now. We really deserve it too. I
don't think you deserved it.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
But if you're gonna say you're gonna keep me around here,
and you're saying you want me, well, then pay me
more money. You're letting me go talk to the Knicks
because and now executives are probably pissed at that, at
the Knicks for that, and Leon Rose for that, because
that gave those coaches and their agents and opportunity to
take advantage of their front office and get paid a
little more. So I think that's part of the Udoka extension.
But he is certainly a well deserved guy to receive
(22:35):
something like that.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
All right, Caitlyn Clark tonight? How many points and how
many three pointers made? Who's she playing the Valkyries?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Oh? The Golden State team? Golden State team is a
twenty six points?
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Four threes? Four threes? All right, I'm gonna put that
in the same game, parlay on and see what I
can get there. And finally, final score tonight where we
at six point spread, who goes off? Who's the main
who's the leading scorer in the game? Not named SGA,
not named that SGA. I think it's Jaylen Williams.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
He's just been playing so well and has the ball
in his hand initiating offense more. I think Chet has
a decent game. I also think you're gonna have a
huge Alex Crusoe game. Like a people are gonna be
looking at Alex Cruiser after tonight and being like, wait,
should do you actually give our MVP vote to this guy?
He's been that good and he's been that impactful for
the team. I think Cruiser has a great game. I
think the Thunders defense has a great game. I think
the Thunder become NBA champions today for the first time
(23:28):
in franchise history. And there is nobody around the NBA player, coach,
executive owner who deserves an NBA championship more than Sam Presty.
So it's gonna be cool to watch him lift that
Larry of Brian tonight.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
All right, what do you got cooking over at the score, sir?
What are you working on? That's a good question. Great article.
As far as the MVP odds, Concer, we gotta get
that on the timeline. Great stuff. A lot of NBA.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
Draft stuff coming, a lot of NBA draft stuff coming
tomorrow and next week up until Wednesday. So focusing on
the NBA Draft, assuming this series is over for tonight
and some twenty twenty six odds, then Kevin Durant Janis
are stealing the steal in the headline still, So I did.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Expect that KD trade to go down pretty soon. Damn it.
I did have that written down. As far as Katie
to get into, he's got three teams listed. I have
no issue with him saying I want to go to X,
Y and Z, but it's not up to the Suns
to do right by him, like forgive me now. But
they shouldn't do right by them at all.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
But they also have no leverage because they should want
to move on from KD as much as he wants
to move on from them, like that KD experiment was
a disaster, So they have no leverage this in the scenario,
they can't ask for the moon h.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
So well, where's KT end up at? It's tough.
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Look the Heat. I like the heat as a fit.
They probably can offer the worst package. Yep, the rockets
I have can offer the best package. The problem is
if you're giving up assets for KD, that means you're
forfeiting and punpting on Giannis and you're acknowledging that he's
probably just gonna stay in Milwaukee forever.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
So I think that's really tough.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
From from the Rockets perspective, I'm gonna say the Spurs,
I just I think they'll have enough to give up
without giving up their core of Stefan Castle, Wemby dearon
Fox and my missing an't even the number two pick
in the draft whoever that is probably Dillan Harper. But
I think they'll still have enough to give the Suns,
who are gonna have to lower their asking price.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I think it'll be the Spurs, all right. Great stuff
once again, you can find Sam. I don't think socials
at s O s H t Roy Sam Austrey full name,
our full last name, first initial, of course read them
at the Score. Just retweeted some stuff over on our
socials on the station at Fox PHL Gambler. If you
missed anything, check us out online at FOXPHO gambler dot com.
(25:38):
The programming rolls on. Coming up next football is King
with Beef and McLay, followed by On the Clock with
Sam Ostre and Jack Forrest. A brand new addition come
in your way. I'm sure that there's a little bit
probably that you said two nights ago about Ace Bailey
that probably you would say differently now knowing that this
guy has canceled his workouts and wants nothing to do
(26:02):
with this organization.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Very strange, yes, except I've been pretty consistent advocating for
the Sixers to go away from me nice, so nothing's
changing on that front for me. I've been saying VG
Edgecombe is the guy for them at number three, and
they should continue to move in that direction. And look,
Ace Bailey might drop to five because the Hornets are
picking four, and the Hornets don't have a need for
ast Bailey when you have Brandon Miller, LaMelo Ball, Miles
(26:25):
Bridges and a bunch of those guys. I'd rather take
conkor Nippler or someone like that. So aast Bailey could
slip all the way to five or six, but the
Sixers should should just pass on him and get rid
of the aast Bailey experience from Philadelphia.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
He's making a name for himself. Not a positive man
ope either. It's one of these guys where it's like
I'm already getting a bad vibe from him coming into
the league A and then B once he gets into
the League's I didn't say any of that everybody had
something to say. This came out of nowhere, blah blah blah,
and it's just like, I want no parts of him
for Philly, real quick on your boyfriend Maryland dropping though,
(26:59):
what's going on there?
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Defensive concerns. They's slow footed. It's like, will you pay
him at the power forward or center? I still think
whoever takes him is hitting a home run. I think
he's a chance to be a top three player in
this draft. So a lot of teams that are worried
about the defense and the size, he's a slow footed
guy or just missing out on the skill that you
have in a big man. So Derek Queen is awesome
prospect to me. If the Wizards who just had him
(27:24):
in his backyard, he just played in Maryland. He's from Maryland,
so they had him in high school there before he
went to IMG.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
If the Wizards really pass.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
On this guy who would perfectly pair with Alex Saher
as a rim protecting, rim running center, I'd be really
shocked and just it would be kind of weird how
much intel they have, or maybe they didn't do their
due diligence when they had him in his backyard, Because
Derek Queen should not slip past the Wizards at six.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Julius Randall comp No, it's not fair. It's not fair
at all.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
Queen is a phenomenal passer and a playmaker. Julis Randall's
game is just bully ball downhill.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Yeah. I don't like that company, right, all right? Well
I was high and Julius random when he was coming
out of college. That feels like an attorney. Didn't that
team miss the tournament for Kentucky? I believe so? Yeah,
I like he was a great prospect. Yeah, I liked
him a lot. And then look at the look at
the career he's turning. There's nothing, no, man, No, he's
been a hell of a player, hell of a player.
I was right with that analysis. How about that?
Speaker 2 (28:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (28:18):
But today again, it matters where you end up. And
he's been on how many teams already? Lakers, Knicks and
that Wolves.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
He's only been on three unless he was somewhere between
Lakers and Knicks, was he?
Speaker 1 (28:27):
I don't think he was, now that you bring it up, now,
I say it like that, But all.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Right, great stuff by Say Halikins for one season, Lakers,
four years, one season, Nicks five timber Wolves.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
About that one more time for the people he was
part of that. Anthony Davis Street. All right, we're gonna
be live tomorrow three pm. We'll talk to you from
Inxfinity Live. Uh football is king his next fallowed by
on the clock. Everybody enjoyed the rest of your day.
Go Phills and uh let's get a game seven. We'll
talk to you piece
