Panthers again. Actually, I think this is their third matchup
in the Stanley Cup, good one.

I can't believe Dallas has the team is too warm,
but they do and they just cannot get through. But yes,
a lot that's going on. How many people, Georgia, you
thinking Louis will follow hockey.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
I just George, I wasn't that guy yet, I'm like entertainer.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
We're talking about hockey.

Speaker 4 (07:12):
I can't do it.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
I'm sorry, but hey, George, physical sport. Those guys don't
have their teeth. I know that, George. They don't have
their teeth. Gosh, they get their teeth knocked out. They
need to wear like football players. I don't know what's
their problem. Put in mouthguards, guys, Jesus, come on the
floor of the fight there, I know, George, George, I mean,

(07:35):
I like to see the fights. I'm being honest in
that band. But so what we're talking about hockey? Go ahead, Anthony,
what else do we have on the docket. I know
we got some baseball. What's going on with college baseball?

Speaker 3 (07:45):
Anthemy, Yeah, college baseball, we do have, we have we
have a lot going on. Obviously, I know that they're

good game, and Western against Georgia Tech at four pm.
So we've got twelve u o K two pm, Louisville

(08:19):

Speaker 2 (08:21):
George all Bland today.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
College World Series, guys, congratulations to all three. Coach man job,
Mark Reard and at Western Kentucky has done a tremendous
job there. So coach McDonald has finally got the Cardinals
back in. You know, there was a dry spill and
we've got we've got well, we already got a first caller.
But anything else, Anthony, you want to get out because

(08:44):
what we're gonna do is I'm gonna bring on my
caller and then after that we'll get to break anything else, Anthony,
you want.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
To get out.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
I think we've got mainly interesting thing. The last thing
we really want to get into is obviously, Louisville did
get a new signee that signed over the weekend. Yes,
his name is Vangel He's a six eighty four two
hundred and fifty thous Greece and they said he's an
absolute unit.

Speaker 2 (09:06):
I mean, I sent you the highlights, Anthony.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Now, guys, you can go on the internet and see them,
but highlights. I want people to understand, I say with
Georgia and either we say this for every player. I
can make myself look good in the highlight tape. But
what he does do, George, he does finish through contact
around the basket. That's one thing that the highlight tapes
show me. They're just not all highlight dunks. When nobody's

(09:30):
around George, he is dunking on people. So we'll have
to wait and see Louisville needs interior help. So we're
gonna talk about we got into Kentucky yesterday, Georgian, And
I'm being honest with you, George, Anthony put Kentucky in
the top one, two or three in the sec. So
do I with the recruit. I like what they've done.
I like what coach Folks done. I like what coach
Kelsey's done. Pek, my man, I like what he's done.

(09:53):
I just think they're a little slim interior, George. But
I like what he's done. So both teams. It's exciting
right now. Georgia really is to pick it up.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
It really is. I mean, I'm I'm happy with both
and guys, that is he ses wicked. But anyway, let's
get to our first.

Speaker 4 (10:09):

Speaker 2 (10:17):
You're right, George, But I'm not.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
I'm gonna what he's gonna leave it alone, George, I'm
gonna leave it alone.

even listen to that. But uh uh, George, George, I'd
like to direct my first question to you, if that's okay.

Speaker 4 (11:42):
That'd be great.

Speaker 6 (11:44):
Well, I heard, you know, uh, mister Eves and Jerry
discussing about this new fellow that they went overseas and
got and uh, hey, George, you think it's another Irish
hulk bringing in and uh uh you know, you.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
Go there, you go, No, it's not enough an Irish Hulk.
No coach kills question.

how he.

Speaker 4 (12:11):

Speaker 1 (12:20):
Oh you got guess jokes, We got jokes this morning, Anthony, Anthony, See,
this is just report that we have a great that
we have a great new recruit. And here Blanding is
comparing to the Hulk. Coach Mack is not here, he's
coaching somewhere else.

Speaker 6 (12:38):
Jerry, where's this young man form that you all say?
I'm sorry I missed that.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
Anthony gives Blanding the news again and going I'm gonna
send it to you, but I'm gonna send you the highlights.

Speaker 2 (12:46):
Anthony gave him the news again.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
Yeah, obviously, so they did get a new signing over
the over this past weekend. He is a foreigner. His
name is Vangelisis. He is from Europe. He's six eight
and five pounds. I mean he's a Greek big He
played in the Fever youth competitions and in Greece. He
said he's a fantastic and dunkers spot. He's got a
strong vertical athletic and he's ultra competitor, and he's a

(13:11):
high motor that Louisville needs is something that should be
good for him throughout the season. So he'll give him
an athletic big in there that'll be able to bang bodies
throughout the a SEC and have a non conference play
going into the tournament, which they do need obviously because
they do have the loss of James Scott that happened
over this summer as well in the transfer portal.

Speaker 6 (13:30):
Well, I've been Anthony. I want you to know that's
all good and well. But I heard he's a distant
custom to the RIH Hawk, so I'm excited to see
him come in here and dominate like thel Bed. But George,
I want to let you know it's an exciting time
to college World Series, has a lot of fun and

(13:52):
just of course we're starting in the region. Also, I
hope all the local teams do well. And George, have
you heard Jerry talking about the Cincinnari Red Lightly, No, sir,

their stadiums up there and know how River like the
Amper used to be. You know, see no, but but

crowling about him lately like you do when you're a
game above five.

Speaker 1 (15:18):

Speaker 2 (15:23):
So I haven't called them out, but I followed them.

knew their record. I followed the rids. I know about
the trade. Just come on, Blanding.

Of course, the next game you can start there. The

they struggled. Jeers, they lost like eight of the last
ten they lost.

Speaker 5 (17:21):
Development Are you talking about basketball?

No, baseball, baseball.

Speaker 4 (17:26):
It was on the same point.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
Yes, we can talk about the SEC increasing the fines,
the five hundred thousand.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
If you charge the field are the court, George, they're
gonna pop. That's cool for five hundred. We can go
about a numerous things, but it'll be on you after
the break.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
George, is these words radio. I got Anthony, I got
the other guy and the brand. We'll talk to you
all in a minute. So, George, you're the man man
of the hour. If you listen to Blanding, I'm throwing
it to you.

Speaker 4 (17:53):
Where are we starting, George, Well, first of all, I
got to say that you really was wrong about what
bland That said. J I thought he'd described the show correctly,
and you came off and you said, you know eas
you know he said miss E's Jerry and you know
and when you so what what what part that didn't
you get? What part of that are you disagreeing with?

(18:13):
Aren't you Jerry? Aren't you Jerry?

Speaker 2 (18:16):
I'm the brand?

Speaker 4 (18:18):
No, you are, Jerry, and mister if you're enlible, No,
Missus is dead. That's my dad.

Speaker 2 (18:24):
He's gone, and his dad's dead.

Speaker 4 (18:27):
He's gone. And they got a following Jerry. Why don't
you build him up?

Speaker 5 (18:32):
Man?

Speaker 4 (18:32):
He's got as fans. He asked, what we don't have?
He has fans?

Speaker 5 (18:39):
True?

Speaker 1 (18:40):
So, tr Anthony, I'm just trying to keep you out
of harms away, but I can't help you.

Speaker 2 (18:43):
There's sick.

Speaker 4 (18:45):
You're bound mailbox at me exactly.

Speaker 2 (18:49):
Be careful, walk softly. So George, where do we go? Brother?
Where do we go before we take our next call?
Where do we go? You know?

Speaker 4 (18:56):
I wanted to talk about you of l Baseball, but
I don't feel like it's appropriate today because the most
current thing was about that NBA and you know, being
big brother, being big brother, and you know what they
keep talking about Jerry in the NBA. What do you know?

Speaker 2 (19:11):
No?

Speaker 4 (19:12):
What put big cat?

Speaker 2 (19:14):
The big Cat Carltowns. He was on the last night.
I watched his interview after the game last night. Oh George,
you know what, you know it's sick when you've got.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
Anthony Shaquille O'Neill's talking to Charles Barkley about kr Anthony
Towns's toes.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
You know the show went awry. You say, mine goes crazy? George?
Last night I was watching, I'm like, but you all
stop good? It went crazy.

Speaker 4 (19:42):
So what I mean he showed sleep Jay, you understand,
I know that's what Jack said.

Speaker 2 (19:47):
Didn't you ever pull your toes out? Jack?

Speaker 1 (19:49):
Oh, George won't even talk about what poor trainers go through.
So Anthony, George is throwing it to the game, George. Yesterday,
Anthony and I were speaking about Halliburton, and I.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
Said that I was gonna give the man some credit.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
Anthony said to me yesterday, what happens when he scores
eight or six points and they lose? And that's what
you said, Anthony, I mean, completely predicted last night's game.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
So here we are.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
Halliburton two for seven over, two for for five, six six,
got me no turnovers.

Speaker 2 (20:20):
Eight points.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
So Anthony, I'm gonna let you start. Since you called
this and you did. What did you think of his
performance yesterday? Tyrese Haliburton?

Speaker 3 (20:31):
Honestly his performance I just I wasn't surprised. Just put
it like that.

Speaker 4 (20:37):
Has he played good in the playoffs? He has.

Speaker 3 (20:39):
I'll give him his credit because he definitely has. But
that's the only thing I can't I don't really like
how Haliburny is two inconsistent and his inconsistent are bad,
like his is two for seven. How do you go
from shooting twenty three shots to seven shots in a
game where you can take your team win the series
four to one if you can get a week long

(21:01):
break before you play okayc on June fifth, because that's
when the West, when the NBA Finals start, is on
June fifth, and you go out there, you don't even
shoot the ball. It's not like you went out there
and had twenty assists, eight points. You're a liability on defense.
You got killed, and your team goes out there and
loses almost by twenty points. It's just as an All

(21:22):
Star perform as the All Star of your team other
than Siakam, you're the first or second best player on
the team by far. You can't go out there and
have performances like that that everyone knows for a fact.
Regardless if he scored eight points, not in any series
game that they're not going to win. He scores eight points,
it's just.

Speaker 4 (21:39):
Not going to happen.

Speaker 5 (21:40):
I know he's a preer.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
Point guard, but eight points isn't gonna get done for
any for any All Star, any best player on the team,
you have to go score the ball. He didn't even
looked to.

Speaker 2 (21:48):
Shoot George, and then he called it.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
I was giving Halliburton and I still am a lot
of credit yesterday before the game for the game before
he played too super But Anthony said, yesterday exactly that,
and then the game was played and he's two for
seven over two, four for five.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
What do you think about his performance.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
Georges, give me both last night?

Speaker 4 (22:15):
Okay, Well, the first the first thing I said, you know,
just as well as anybody you know, Jared, when you're
going into the NBA and you down three to one,
it's like playing a wounded animal. Then boys from New York,
they came in desperate. They put everything they had on
the line to win that game. They gave, they gave
their best. I thought indian Ana made multiple comebacks. But
that looked like a Knight, Jared. But no matter what

(22:37):
you did, you couldn't get over the hump, you know,
and those are those are rough Knights. I thought New
York did what they had to do. They got out early,
and they were able to maintain and hold the league.
You saw certain instances where New York, I mean, Indianna
had multiple chances to come back when Cat was out,
when Bronson was out, you know. But they just didn't
get it done. And the bench for Indyanna played out,

(22:59):
I mean for New York played out standing well with
they having done all year long, you know, And I
thought that I thought New York could have lost it
because they made some of the dumbest plays. You got
your big man, big cat. He made some files that
could have really cost them. A couple of files he
got away with that should have been called, you know.
But overall, I think they planned for their life during

(23:19):
They came out and they played like a wounded animal
and they did what they had to do to keep
them alive. But I think overall, I think Brumpton as
an athlete, I really like his game, you know. I
think he can make what I like about him during
and most point guards loved this about a players. He
makes everybody else better, you know what I mean. I
thought last night the coach should have been more aware

(23:40):
of what he wasn't doing, asked him to push the
ball or go to the basket because he caused foul problems,
you know, And I thought that's what he didn't do.
I thought some of it was on coaching and strategy,
and you know, I thought that he, like you said,
I love his game, but like that last night and
now did what they had to do to take them out,
to take him out.

Speaker 5 (23:59):
Of the game.

Speaker 4 (24:00):
And I look forward to it. But I think, oh,
while the place was still favorite to win this in.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
My gotcha, Game six is in Indianapolis, and I'm upset
about that because could be Game six in Louisville. We
had the Colonels and I'm still upset about that. But
I'm gonna leave it alone. Guys, Anthony is correct, but
Halliburton is a true point guard and he's not always
looking to score. But you just can't go to for seven.
You cannot defensively. He was a liability last night and

(24:28):
we kind of expected it. Like George, I agree with you, Anthony.
I said it yesterday. I said the Knicks win.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
I said that.

Speaker 4 (24:34):
I want people to know.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
I didn't say Indiana would close them out in the garden.
I said the Knicks would win.

Speaker 4 (24:39):
And they did.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
I just would have liked to see Halliburton be more
aggressive offensively in some areas of the game. You're right, though, George,
Indiana people down twenty, cut it to twelve, down eighteen,
cut it to eight. They tried, they just could never
get over the hump. They tried to make comebacks, but
they couldn't. The Knicks played really, really well last night.

(25:02):
And let's just throw it at Big Cat Towns. If
you go look at the box score, George, when yes,
Sir Runson was in the game, there were plus eighteen.
When Big Towns was in the game, the Big Cat,
there were plus twenty six. When Towns really plays well
and plays downhill, Nick's hard to beat. I like Towns

(25:24):
in the paint. I just like him attacking the basket. No,
he's not a great lift guy. You know, they want
him jumping out of the gym.

Speaker 2 (25:30):
That's not what he does.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
But I like him when he's playing physically. George, you
got a plus twenty plus twenty six even with his
you know, of course Charles Barkley.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Called him out, said you got to stop the dumb
files at the end in his interview.

Speaker 4 (25:43):
That's one time that Lance you know that was true.

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Yes, he just grabbed him. You're right, I mean, Charles
was right. He said I have to improve on that
he does. You just can't do that, Big Cat.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
You're too important. But I'm gonna tell you what fatigue there.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yes, Oh, I agree with you, George. But that's why,
you know, that's when they have to get him in
and out. I mean, that's it just is what it is.
But big Cat is key to the Knicks. That's all
there's too he can if he can transition and keep
up with the pace of play of Indiana, and they're
running up and down with that small unit, it's key.
So guys, it's already seven thirty five. Let's get our

(26:21):
next caller in. This one will be another one, Rick,
bring on my one and only.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
I can't wait, ac a c go on, insult me

let me ask her question. So why isn't your phone
line Wednesday and Thursday?

Speaker 4 (26:51):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
You'll have to take that up with the producer.

Speaker 5 (26:56):
I figured. I figure Shannon has an agenda because this
charsel clowns, they have an agenda.

Speaker 4 (27:03):
They like certain.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
You know, you know me as yes, you're a good guy.
You can call and direct anything towards me. Don't call
the people out just you know with me, I am
fair game. Everybody knows that not a problem.

Speaker 5 (27:20):
But didn't you didn't you didn't didn't you didn't you
say to didn't you say to it? Didn't you say
to it? Half years ago? We can call out the
producers and call home there. Oh okay, how about that?
I have an idea. I have an idea. Why don't

(27:42):
you put brother Rick five days a week? And what
if he's getting paid, make sure it's double the salary?
How about that?

Speaker 4 (27:50):

Speaker 2 (32:43):

Speaker 1 (32:44):
The same AC that I have, crazy as he could be. Anyway, though, George,
and we're gonna get to break George. We're gonna throw
it back to you about who wins this dough. Okay,
well the Pacers take it. The Knicks out tomorrow and
can the Masers do anything with OKAYC and your boy,
I gave you credit yesterday. Shade Gildigs Alexander is the man.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
E Sports Radio will be back in a second.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
I just hired a new general manager because I'm gonna
have to have somebody negotiate all these name, image and
likeness contracts.

Speaker 2 (33:19):
So the world has changed, George, it's changed.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
So I just want you want to know I hired Ron.
It's the general manager. You all aren't gonna get a dime,
not a dime.

Speaker 4 (33:31):
So anyway, n my man. I know Ryan got my back.
I know Ryan got my bag. Any money in the kitty,
Ron gonna see me.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
You gott otaga all the way back, Ryan said, all
the money to the kitty. O taga, oh way is
your kiddy, George?

Speaker 2 (33:48):
You got him back?

Speaker 4 (33:49):
So Kat's we're not man like Kentucky.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
I like it.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
I like Kentucky. I do. I like Louis for George,
I really do. I like what both of you.

Speaker 4 (33:59):
I really do with me too, I do too. I mean,
I really do. I mean because I think Coach Kelsey
is not like Coach Matt When he says a ball
players to play, he pretty much knows talent. Coach Matchew
everybody was the greatest, greatest light bridge every time he
recruits them back. You remember the Cardinal player to play
it back in the day. He's five times persian Is.

(34:21):
You'll forget all about his name.

Speaker 2 (34:22):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (34:24):
The greatest talent he does.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
So, guys, it's gonna be exciting. So George, Anthony ac
boy that boy. I'm telling you, I have a few women,
George that would tie him up and whip with Ale.
They would, they would. So here's what we have, George
and Anthony. Does Indiana close this thing out tomorrow?

Speaker 4 (34:48):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (34:48):
Or no?

Speaker 2 (34:49):
For both of you? Anthony, for you first, does Indiana
close it out tomorrow.

Speaker 3 (34:54):
You know, I think they can take care of business
at home, but this is gonna be their best opportunity
to do it. I think if they don't win at
home and they go back to New York, we could
see a three to one comeback in the Eastern Conference Finals.
That's all I'm gonna.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
Say, George, I'm gonna give you a little tipbit.

Speaker 4 (35:09):
No team has ever lost.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
And come back and won, George, no team ever in
the series ever. He has lost their first two home
games and won the series. But could it happen and
the Knicks bull is off?

Speaker 4 (35:24):
I don't think, Soldier. I don't think they have the
depth to do it. I really don't not.

Speaker 2 (35:28):
Think every point.

Speaker 4 (35:29):
I think and down have missed some shots that they
normally don't miss. I think Hallen Bert will be back
on top of his game, and I think they'll go
ahead and close them out. I think we'll have an
OKC and plays a game.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
Yes, its ever gone oh too at home and won
the series ever, But you know what, if it was
gonna happen, it would be this series.

Speaker 2 (35:48):
The Knicks are gritty boy.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
Why is it the New York Knicks or the Los
Angeles Lakers up and down, flamboyant, but the Knicks, the.

Speaker 2 (35:57):
Celtics for the old Celtics and not they would grind
it out. George.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
You have to give the next team credit. Runts and
in those guys Big Cat, they do try to grind
you out, George. They try to play hard, play physical.

Speaker 4 (36:09):
Well, I think it's leadership. I mean, you look how
the coach coaches. I mean, you know, he demands that
kind of play. He played played a short line up
every bad Tom about how short his rotation was. He
did what he had to do, and he looks at
his team and not analytics, you know what I mean.
And that's what I like. Let me see what's on
the court and then I'll decide how I'm gonna play.

Speaker 1 (36:29):
This is known for grind. Thibodeau is a grinder. I've
known Tom Timbodeau when he worked with John and being alone. Yes,
he loved George. He doesn't care about bench. He just
plays to win. He want him look at the bench.
He's worse than coach Crumb when he was trying to
make a point telling other players to tell other guys
to go in the game.

Speaker 4 (36:49):
Yes, yeah, he's a pet Riley type guy pep Rowdy
didn't go on, no decent, no bitching. Yes.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Tom Thimbodeau was John Lucas's assistant with the Philadelphia seventy
six Guys back in the nineties.

Speaker 2 (37:01):
Sai's how long I know Tim?

Speaker 1 (37:03):
He's been a grinder his entire career, so it's pivotal like.
And he said, the Knicks must get it done. I mean,
excuse me, the Pacers must.

Speaker 2 (37:12):
Get it done.

Speaker 4 (37:13):
Well, yeah, that's kind of obvious. Step brother.

Speaker 2 (37:16):
Yes, Now, George Shay Gildis, you called him out.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
You did in the McDonald's game, he said, Jerry's I
don't know about anybody else but that boy right there.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
Yes, you did. I'm gonna give you full credit. What
do you think that a great player? Great?

Speaker 4 (37:31):
I told you gonna take a job in Kentucky.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
You did, No, you did exactly right. And he did.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
But then he started starting after game six or seven
I remember correctly, But that's exactly what he did.

Speaker 4 (37:43):
And Goatchet. Yeah, we've been to a lot of games,
We've watched a lot of players. This boy won the MVP,
he won the most like Player, he won the dunk contest.
You know what I mean? And Jay he took itself
out of the game. I did thirty five or something
in the game, and and well he let me go
and assist, and he took itself out of the game.

(38:04):
He let some mouse play, coach. I just showed you
what I can do.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
Oh, George, he is really I love his temperament. But
here's the deal.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
You thought I were talking about this Anthony. I don't
know if you noticed, but he and Anthony Edwards hugged each.

Speaker 2 (38:18):
Other after the game.

Speaker 4 (38:19):
Oh yeah, knocked off no game, Jed, I.

Speaker 1 (38:24):
Know exactly, But Anthony, George, he's so much taller and
longer than Anthony Edwards. Anthony looked like a little kid,
being honest with you, he is definitely two inches taller.

Speaker 2 (38:33):
They were hugging each other.

Speaker 3 (38:34):
Was a pick.

Speaker 2 (38:35):
I'm like, God, Shay is huge, George.

Speaker 4 (38:38):
I mean, you know, and I always say this, Jeed.
The one thing he does that a lot of players.
He can handle that rock. You can't control him. He
patched that rock and goes away. He wants to. He's amadextrous.
I mean, it's hard to play against someone that can
do that. I can use either hand equally, and he's
been that good. Jared He had that same composion when
he played here at McDonald game, same composure and everybody

(39:01):
was back who and he when I'm Kentucky and took jobs.
He didn't answer one. He said, because you're gonna have
to start me.

Speaker 2 (39:08):
Yes, gotta pay for a year. He is going to
be a load for a long time. He's really, really,
really good. He really is.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
So I'm happy for the young man and particulate George
handles himself the media.

Speaker 2 (39:22):
You know what I mean. He's he's good.

Speaker 4 (39:25):
Yeah, what's the player?

Speaker 2 (39:27):
So pacers? Okay see? I say, okay see him five.
Whoever comes out of the East, okay se will lose
one game to them. They'll beat him for one.

Speaker 1 (39:38):
My pig telling you before it starts. I picked okay
see in Cleveland, George.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
So I was upset. I wanted Cleveland to do better,
but that was my that was my selection. Okay see.

Speaker 4 (39:50):
I would rather see them devid because it seemed like
it would be an up and down game like the
game used to be. The paper be Quick, a lot
of jocks. Seemed like it'ld be a lot of excitements.
I I think that would be the game. I would
one seat
