Yeah, We're three fun fun facts. Over in Sweden they had dogg and

(02:54):
Otch known as h Day September third, nineteen sixty seven, the country decided
to get on the same page withtheir neighbors in Norway and Finland and switched
from driving on the left side ofthe road to the right side of the
road. Every vehicle in motion hadto come to a complete stop at four

(03:14):
point fifty pm, carefully changed tothe opposite side of the road, and
at five pm, ten minutes later, they were allowed to proceed again.
I assume it went very smoothly.A lot of coke seeds right when you're
making the switch. Figure a lotof coke seeds and the creases of the

terrible weekend in baseball. The warball Doyers. Let the Padres come in

Doyers he's talking about how one Sotowas too nonchalant dragging the clubhouse down,

Washington National Case is trying to eatthat mic. What you want. On
Saturday Night, you got Will Smithtelling David Vasse just because he thinks it's
a giant seed, mister irrelevant Jergsonprof Oh yeah, with vast caused that.
Yeah. Then yesterday after the game, after the Padres took two or

(04:45):
three from the Dodgers, Manny Machadawas asked about that he gets it.
I mean, I don't know.I mean, I'm pretty sure we'renna have
to check the dictionary on that,because he's he's been he's been leading this
team big time. And you know, I mean numbers speaks for every time
he comes out here and he stepsin that field. You know, he
makes a big impact on the game. And at the end of the day,

(05:06):
boy got ten years in the leagueand that there's only a handful of
baseball players in all of baseball whohave accomplished that goal. So have a
little bit of respect on his namea respect to the victors, go the
spoils. You better check the dictionary. So maybe this word doesn't mean what

(05:27):
you think it means. Perhaps youdon't think they know the last time I
chuck, you've been at ten years. They're a pretty good guy, now
all that is to do in thisleague, there are only a handful of
guys that have been ten years.Hey, gringo, why don't you ask
Johnny Chingas about it? The JetsMatt unveiled their new unis. Oh hell

Sack Exchange era of the eighties.The early to mid eighties were an era
of prosperity for the Jat's, withthe team making four playoff appearances. Mark
Gastineau Cleco, Marty Lyons and AbdulSalam on that d line shot the fame

(06:11):
in the era known as the NewYork sack Exchange? Is that what it
was known as? Yeah, theyexchanged sacks. Oh that they just juggled
each other's sacks. Well, yeah, that was the exchange, helping inspire
the NFL to begin counting the sackas an official statistic legacy collection. Congratulations

(06:34):
Jets, it's gonna beautiful, Yes, the old that's big news. Yeah
it is. It's the as yousaid, the nineteen eighties airline logo style

Casino Dodgers on Dead. Yeah,Matt and I are going to do the

(12:13):
Dead and Alive after this, andthen we'll get you to the pregame show
on this I'm a Horse Monday.So right now for the top story of
the day, Top story of theday, Well, it lined up perfectly.
How about the good news and wecan get to the bad news.
But the good news, we hadgood basketball news over the weekend. The

(12:35):
Clippers were able to deposit wins andthe Kevin Kennedy win ATM able to take
it easy this final week, recognizingthat they were locked into the four seed,
had home court advantage. So let'sget all our guys to do the
greatest tunnel walk in the history ofClipper basketball. Three superstars, MVP candidates,

(12:58):
perennial All Stars, all three ofyou get to do a tunnel walk.
And on top of that, you'regonna wear that tunnel walk outfit onto
the floor, sit court side becausewe're resting, y'all. Oh, we're
gonna We're gonna play a real fashiongame tonight. Congratulations Clippers for banking enough
wins in the Kevin Kennedy win atmso you can make a deposit a little

(13:20):
bit later in the season. Thewin at means super late season met ball
exactly right, tunnel walk, Comeon, wait, do you see what
Russ is wearing to the Mets?Gonna blow your mind? The Lakers kick
some answer over the weekend. Addresswent from the ten spots to the eighth.
They only have to win one playinggame. Yes it's on the road,

(13:41):
but it's against a Pelicans team thatthey have punched in the chest repeatedly
this season. It is a goodmatchup for them. Uh, that would
make them the seven seed avoid havingto win two road. They make that
Zion guy look like Spice Williams whenhe's out there. He really freaks out
when and he says, Anthony Davis'sbig, wide open eyeballs lurking and he's

(14:05):
like, hey man, I thoughtyou guys were gonna guard me with AD
And it's like, no, we'regonna guard you with Lebron and AD's big
eyes. They're just hanging out ofthe net and you're like, I don't
know if I want to go.I don't know if I want to attack
that rim. It came thanks toLebron James playing arguably his best game of
the season, piled up more assiststhan he averages per game by the end
of the first quarter, a doubledouble at the half, a triple double

(14:26):
at the final buzzer, and alopsided total domination of a win against a
team that had won four in arow, including knocking off the Warriors in
San Francisco to open the window forthe Lakers to take advantage of their final
two games. Jump ahead a GoldenState and Sacramento on top of that,
and now all is well. Youeither get the win on Tuesday and you

(14:50):
are in the playoffs as a sevenseed. Your hard work is rewarded as
a member of the tournament, asthey like to call it. Or if
you'll, hey, we got onemore home game at Crypto dot com,
Laker fans, watch you come onout, oh fan appreciation. Absolutely,
watch us take on the winner ofthe nine to ten contest, and maybe

(15:11):
we get an extra chapter of StephCurry versus Lebron James, something we should
not take advantage of, by theway, because we don't know how long
these two are going to should takeadvantage. Yeah, so let's you know,
break it in with your big asseyes a d there is a rub,
and this has been sort of interesting, and maybe we're some goggles when
the playoffs roll around, and maybewhere something to I don't know, support

(15:35):
your back since you left with backissues again in the final game of the
regular season. But oh, it'sfine. I just tweaking them back,
no worries. I'll be out thereon Tuesday, prays up. Here's the
rub, and it's a bit ofa bummer of a rub. Somehow,
the Nuggets fell apart against one ofthe league's worst teams, the Spurs,
and like the Warriors, having lookedlike they had everything wrapped up to their
benefit, the Nuggets slipped to thetwo seat. So instead of the Timberwolves

(16:00):
or the Thunder, they win thisgame tomorrow. And I would assume they
stayed in New Orleans instead of flyingback only to fly back, which means
I certainly hope people are comfortable withshellfish. I don't have any accidents,
all right? Are you sure youcan eat shellfish? Because I would hate
for you to have stomach issues yourthroat closes, you've become swollen. Fried

(16:22):
oyster on top of the treuboiled oysterin a oyster reduction sauce. You think
that goes that in a city easily. It's very light, very light,
fair. You won't feel it atall during the layup line. What would
you like to drink? I'm gonnatake the cream with a sight of cream
weight. Get that please. Sothey likely stay in New Orleans, will

(16:45):
have to prevent themselves from have afrothy Benye coffee, consuming a begne in
the morning, a shrimp po boy, a shrimp po boy, and fried
oysters at lunch, and the itfe and the jambalaya at dinner the inflated
potatoes at Antoine's are exquisites. Thereare some suggesting that the matchup there is

(17:12):
really only one seriously bad matchup forthe Lakers in the postseason, and it
just so happens to be the teamthat they will face should they knock off
the Pelicans tomorrow after completely and utterlydominating them in every regular season well three
of the four regular season matchups.What team is that, Matt, That
would be the Denver Nugget. Yeah, they will play the winner of this

(17:32):
seven eight game tomorrow night. Thatmeans Anthony Davis, much like Zion Williamson,
looks at being guarded by Lebron withAnthony Davis lurking in the background and
cannot perform. Anthony Davis looks atthat giant serb and his bald head and
it's like, I don't know whatto do. I don't know what to
do here. I can do itagainst anybody else in the league, but

(17:55):
that freaking guy with his deep seteyes and his trotter likes is, for
whatever reason, kryptonite to me,one of the best players in the NBA.
On top of that, Aaron Gordonbig, physical and probably as big
and physical a defender against Lebron Jamesas there is as you're going to face
in the playoffs. It's a badmatchup. So there are those that are

(18:15):
saying ridiculously, by the way,fan man, tank the game. Tank.
I have heard that tank the game. I figured it would come up
today. Why wouldn't you tank thegame? You tank the game. You
get an Oklahoma City team that can'thandle your size, that's too young,
that doesn't know what it feels liketo face Lebron James in the postseason,
you'll probably sweep them. Sega can'tplay. Why would say he's Canadian?

(18:38):
You don't know what the hell he'sdoing out there when the playoffs roll around.
Why wouldn't you look how long ittook that Murray got to figure it
out? Exactly right, idiot,sausage ed, the hell do you know?
Plaockey Tim Horton's stupid ass, dumbass put maple syrup on it.
Idiot. They are suggesting, andby day I mean a number of members

(18:59):
in the media, including some formerplayers. Yeah, why not? Why
not see if the Nuggets can runinto some trouble by the time you got
to square up against them in theconference finals, If you can find yourself
on the other end of the bracket, take on an Oklahoma City Thunder team
that doesn't have the size, doesn'thave the experience, and clearly does not
match up well with you, whereasthe Nuggets are arguably the worst matchup.

(19:22):
Ah, I think you're not advocatingfor the tank job and the play in
tank. I guess I just kindof think back to the last time the
two teams met, which let mewreck my brain, was about a week
ago, and Steph Curry and KlayThompson found themselves on a heater at Crypto
dot Com Arena and blew out theLakers to put them in the position that

(19:45):
they thought we thought was gonna screwthem. Lakers will defend the three this
time, Yeah, they will.They won't just allow them to shoot sixty
four percent. They couldn't. Onceyou're able to execute a tanking of a
game, then you'll be able toget your boner up real quick and defend
that. There's no possible way theycould connect on sixty four percent of their
threes. Again, Yeah, becausethat sounds like a good idea. Let
me get in a one game eliminate. Let me get in a one game

(20:08):
winner, go home against Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and the
four time NBA champion of Warriors.That sounds like a really good idea.
Oh, you can't tank the game, you win the game, you take
your medicine, and who knows,maybe it's the most competitive sweep ever.
Maybe if you figured something out betweennow, or between the time you were

(20:30):
swept and the time you start thisnext postseason. Oh wait, they've lost
eight in a row to the Nuggets, and the Nuggets tend to pour it
on in the final few minutes aftera tight game because they exploit the mismatch
and yeah, well look it couldbe worse as we shift to the Clippers
and they're the lot that they havehappened to draw again, hell of a

(20:53):
tunnel walk for them. Congratulations there, But we have got a Kawhi Leonard
and a head coach and on louthat is being very cryptic about his availability.
Leonard has not played since March.This is bad, this seems bad.
He's not played again since March.He did not play yesterday. You
would think if his knee as okaywould have shook a little rust off at
least got in for a quarter orsomething. But that's not good. So

(21:18):
are we going to get the Lakerstanking? Could we possibly get a Mavericks
Clippers which many people are saying isthe best first round matchup? Super competitive,
everybody's healthy. I don't know.One thing I know is you probably
just want to go ahead and winthe game against the Pelicans as opposed to
dealing with either a King's team thatseemingly has their number because again them out

(21:40):
of Sabonis issues for Anthony Davis withhim. So the Pelicans game tomorrow won't
be easy because the Lakers are old. They're old, they're brittle, and
I heard they're allergic to shellfish.Lebron guarded Zion Williamson nearly the whole game.
That's a lot of beef that hewas pushing around and I'm guessing forty
eight hours later, maybe feeling thata little bit eighty left, as we
mentioned, with a back problem lockedup and he'll be fine. Well that's

(22:02):
cool, Yeah, and yes,that was fine. Larry Bird was able
to really play through that in theplayoffs when his back would lockch set to
lay on the ground. He's gotso I'll put a town on the ground.
Let me go lay over here fora little while. That's I like
to do it. H Brandon InghamIngram had his first game back since March
twenty first, so maybe he shooksome rush rust off. He only played
twenty three minutes. It's a weirdvibe. I don't get it. The

(22:22):
team looked like a buzz saw yesterday, like a Lakers team that blew through
the Grizzlies and made easy work ofthe Warriors in the second round last year
in the playoffs. Austin reeves everybit the star that we think he will
be. You know, as JamesWorthy likes to say, ruey now ruey,
now Ruey, now Ruey, nowruey. He filled in wherever he

(22:42):
needed to fill in with rebounds andpoints, and played heavy minutes, just
like playoff basketball. Lebron played thirtyeight d Russ for the Ship, thirty
eight Davis played thirty three before hisbat my back, my back locked up
before you to leave with that,and who knows, Maybe we get lucky
here. Imagine the excitement, Pee, Maybe we get lucky. Maybe,

(23:07):
in fact, the Lakers win thisgame against the Pelicans, they take on
the Nuggets. They're on the oppositeside of the bracket as the Clippers.
Maybe we get lucky. Maybe PaulGeorge and Kawhi Leonard are finally healthy together
in the playoffs and make it througha couple rounds before deciding that this team
can or can win. I justwant to see what they look like together

(23:29):
in the playoffs, man, That'sall I want. That is what people
have been not calling for. Maybewe get to see the Lakers behind a
healthy Anthony Davis and Lebron and emergingReeves, oh whiplash Reeves. Maybe maybe
we get to see it. It'snot likely. Kawhi Leonard, Paul George
James, Harden, Anthony Davis,Lebron James, Austin Reeves in the Conference

(23:56):
finals with a trip to the NBAFinals on the line, Can you imagine
no? Can you imagine no?I mean, will be done doing for
the Lakers when the Lakers play theClippers in the playoffs. Matt, If
that ever happens, you and Iwill be retired at that point. You
mean to tell me that you don'tsee some sort of romance. And this
is the final year they occupy thesame building, oh, the Crypto,

(24:21):
and it could end up being thefirst time they square each other exactly the
Hallway Series. The first time theymeet each other is the last year they
played there together for a trip tothe conference to the NBA Finals, either
the Clippers first trip to the NBAFinals as a franchise or Lebron James again

(24:44):
adding to his legacy taking the Lakersback. I'm not going to hold my
breath, I am. We'll beright back with more great sports talk.
We'll see if Matt all is anotherbreath before we get back with your dad
and a lot guy. Birthday ofthe bed Old. So you feel like

(25:07):
you feel like the Lakers can winit x files. I want to believe.
And what about the Clippers and theCleepers can win it? Okay,
I think the Lakers could win it. And the Dodgers walked fourteen guys last
night. It's hard to do.It's really hard to ask. Matt feels
like the dad comes out and startspitching when you're walking fourteen guys, Like,
hey, get coach out here,he's got to start pitching at these
guys. I watch a lot ofLittle League hard to do, hard to

(25:30):
do, and our strikes on aslarge. True. We'll be back with
more right here on Ami seventy lA Sports. What a terrible night for
the Dodgers last night against the Padres. Oh, and they have an out
to get opportunity to get that terribletaste out of their mouth against the Washington

(25:51):
Nationals. We always get that tasteout of our mouths with a MODELO meets
a lot of Monday, tough Monday. Get that taste out of your mouth
with a meach because it's not areal meet a lot if it's not made
with Malalla, a reward for thosewith a fighting spirit, madella the mark
