pull back the curtain. This is our main pull it
too much, man, I mean, our studio is being remodeled.

Dorothy went through all that stuff just to find out
that the Wizard was fake and there was nothing that
he had to offer anybody. I'm leaving in a balloe.
Please don't pull too much of the past the curtain, man,
I don't want people to know.
Speaker 5 (01:28):
Unlike other shows that are broadcast live on AM five
to seven, d E LA Sports, we on the Petros
and Money Show like to be in the studio. It's
nice to be in the studio.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
Choice. I had to work up in West late to day,
so I got stuck covering up, and we do like
to be here.
Speaker 5 (01:46):
I don't like working out of the house a lot.
It gets too busy and too many things are going on,
and I just prefer to get the hell out of
there every now and then.
Speaker 4 (01:54):
Well, we are here as our studio is being renovated.
We are in the Dodger studio. But a Ronnie, at
a certain point we're going to be kicked out. We
can't see Ronnie when we're at home, and we were
home yesterday.
Speaker 6 (02:06):
I know.
Speaker 4 (02:06):
It's just weird.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Would you stop all the action happening outside the KF
I studio. Right now, John Cobelt just hit the air.
Duke of sports is sprinting around like there's breaking news
in the world. I don't know if the antavirus has
found its way to the Burbank.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Who knows. Man, this is just a different angle, Pee.
I don't know what we're gonna do. It's crazy, man.
Speaker 6 (02:28):
I'm not doing.
Speaker 4 (02:30):
But we are here, and we are happy to be here.
We are together in the Dodger Studio. At a certain
point we are going to have to leave, but don't worry.
You will get your three hours of great sports talk,
great sports talk. Laker news keeps flowing in on the
Laker News or Lebron James News. They're one of the same.
(02:51):
Right now, Lebron watch James Worthy. We put him off.
We thought maybe we should do him yesterday because the
Lakers lost and all that, But no, it was good
that we waited today and held on like braveheart hold.
(03:11):
James Worthy will join us in the very next segment
and we'll talk about the Lakers future and the very
immediate past and what is going to happen with Lebron James.
And I'll tell you this, if I had just broken
some kind of Radio milestone, and on my way out,
our boss Brian Long gave Colin yee like the special bobblehead.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
Like, here's your five hundredth engineering broadcast for Dodgers Radio Award.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
And I just crossed the threshold. You hit your ten
thousand hours, my man down, Finally I'm able to work
on airon Eraduly, I'm not in the Union. Way to go,
Way to go, my man. How is ten thousand hours
on the radio?
Speaker 6 (03:59):
My god?
Speaker 4 (04:01):
But I have to say that because of this very
exciting time in all of our lives, we are here
together in a farm out studio.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
And staring at Tim Kates and Colini's baseball card collection.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
I would be very upset if somebody kinda just eschewed
me and what I've accomplished over the years like they
did to Lebron. Now, I think I can understand. I
know what you're getting at here, but I do think
they're we're together here, And if I was in my house,
I'd probably have more choice words. Yeah, hiding behind the
walls of my house, but I would say I would
kick everybody's ass right here. I would have kicked their
(04:43):
ass if they didn't give me the game ball. Compare
they didn't give me my game ball.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Comparing yourself to Lebron is a embarrassing.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
I've been doing this a long time of twenty years,
just like Lebron and Colin, he's only been around a
short amount of time. Like JJ Reddick. It's the same.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
And we have never been acknowledged for anything that in
our entire career. We were not celebrated for five years.
We were not celebrated for ten years, we were not
celebrated for fifteen years, none of our milestone. We were
not celebrated for twenty and will not be celebrated for twenty.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
But there was a time that us winning a Marconi
would have celebrated somebody else, and we did get celebrated
for that, And when the winds came and the fires blue,
we got special trophies from that interim guy. The only yes,
remember that that is true.
Speaker 5 (05:35):
The only reason you are right, Matt, I gave us
a trophy, a participation trophy. The only reason they went
to our Southern California Sports Broadcasters Award luncheon when we
won our Show of the Year was because it gave
him a day off work.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
And they ate you're right. We haven't been widely are milestones.
We don't get to wear a special patch. We've never
had it. It's our twenty year of petros and money
to you, and I wear a patch like Lebron does. Right,
none of that has happened, You're.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Right, no special Come to the iHeart studio across the
street where the Tonight Show is filmed. They let's celebrate
these guys. As a guy who's been working on this
show for twenty years.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
I would say, and and then you look at Colin
Yee's tenure, even though everybody likes them a lot, like
they like JJ Reddick. I thought, what would I do
if that happened to me, if it was a big
milestone for me? And I'm walking around like I can't
wait to see what everybody does when I show up
at work today for this great radio milestone, the five
(06:35):
billionth time I've said to Nights, I mean, whatever it is,
whatever that milestone is. And then all of a sudden,
like you almost think it's a joke, they're like, hey, everybody,
Colin Yee has surpassed Dave Magdaleno's engineering streak. And you're
just sitting there, like, when are they going to turn
(06:56):
and be like a practical joke ahole, and it never happened,
And I would just leave on my radio uniform and
walk out, fuck out, angry into the caller, to the
cold and damp sure into the night.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
And if you don't know what, because this is an
audio medium, if you don't know what a radio uniform
looks like, just think of a train conductor. That's basically
what we wear. It's kind of like a one piece suit.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Beast boys. There's this vertical. Ours is horizontal, colectic, planetary, planetary.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
But again, the difference is the Lakers have celebrated Lebron
No less than twenty times in his eight years here.
Most free throws, most baskets, most regular season points, most
regular season plus playoff points, most wins. But all of
those things, the games have stopped. There has been a celebration,
there has been an announcement, there has been a presentation.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Of a ball. This one time. Now, Matt, he couldn't
look more petty if he did that jump over the
thing like that guy that attacked the judge, you know
in Vegas, if he attacked if he attacked JJ Reddick
while Rob Blanka was getting the game on Lebron comes
across the room full sellout, like that guy attacked that
poor lady Judd. If he did that, this would be
(08:11):
a better story. But it's hard. He kind of did though,
when the top got up and left. It's hard to top.
It's a bad it's a bad look, and it's a
story trying to make Lebron look good and he looks terrible.
What a slight? What is wrong with you, Lebron?
Speaker 5 (08:28):
What a slight this man made at got his one
hundredth coaching victory.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
That's supposed to be our takeaway from the Lakers season
this year. Lebron wasn't celebrated enough save it mcminnimon.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
And they didn't appreciate him for taking a back seat
to Luca and Austin Reeves when the team went on
a fifteen win in seventeen game run. Somehow they were
supposed to acknowledge, Hey, thanks for doing what we really
wanted you to do all year, but we're afraid to
ask you to do all year and eventually had to
come ask you to do it because we'd gone five
(09:00):
and seven over our previous twelve games. But thank you
for doing that, even though we went fifteen and two
on this stretch, and we really shouldn't be thanking you.
We should be saying, see you see what happens when
you listen to us. So it's indirectly and I don't
know if that was mcminnimon's intention, but it was, like
you said, indirectly, a handful of shots. They're taking it
(09:24):
Lebron in this one. Yeah, I mean, can't be trying
to say, well, the Lakers got a really kind of
men's some fences here, But in the process of doing that,
it's like, really they meant that, do they.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
Have some mend fences? They're under new ownership. That ownership
just one back to back world series in the MLB,
and that brings us to our next six series of
points here in the open of the show. James Worthy
will join us next and we'll get more into the Lakers,
and Matt has a top story of the day, and
we'll get more into the Lakers. And David Vassa will
join us in the five o'clock hour and he will
(09:54):
talk more about the Dodgers. We are your Dodger Station.
They were beaten last night by the Giants, even though
show hey Tom, he hit a home run and a
lot of people are blaming us because we didn't we
do we didn't play the poodle bay ball. Wait wait, wait,
and you cannot deny that. I don't know what the
Dodgers have done up to this point, but I.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
Mean we played and the Atlanta Braves song and they
lost two out of three.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
Yeah, I'm just saying I've been blamed on the text
OsO and I do have to say in regards to
the pros, the Giants have come in here corn flow
with yeah and flavor and taken it to the Dodgers
and it's a terrible look. As David Vasse proclaimed, there
would be a six game winning streak starting last night,
(10:43):
and that did not have a two game that did
not happen. Plus two game losing strek. Yeah, it's not good.
Pot O baballa.
Speaker 7 (10:54):
It's not just how we watched the game, it's where
of the game is played with identity. It's how we
live it, it's how we love it, how we refuse.
Speaker 8 (11:06):
To leave any any any dream.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Half play half play.
Speaker 7 (11:11):
In the Bay Baseball is more than just a sport.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Let's look at lap of sound.
Speaker 8 (11:17):
Shot, every clap, every chance, every botmos.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
He got this boo bay Ball is showing up loud
every night like it's game set. From San Francisco to
San Jose to the East Bay. Our stories to turn
every home game into something bigger. That's why this jersey
carries one word.
Speaker 6 (11:39):
He got.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
The West. He got this. The Giants have really been
taking it to the Dodgers. Really bring on that poodle
Bayball from the Bay Area straight to the necks of
your Los Angeles Dodgers. And it has been hard to watch.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
So their starter had an ERA of six. Yeah, just
going into last night. I mean the Dodgers hit that guy.
The Dodgers aren't good, Matt.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
They stink. They're twenty four and eighteen, but they're still
terrible and it's difficult to watch. And we'll see what
Dave Roberts does, and David Vasse will answer for it
like he answered for it yesterday.
Speaker 5 (12:27):
They're barely hanging under the last playoff spot. The Reds
and the Pirates are nipping at their heels. So if
you are paying attention at home, we have dealt with
Poole Baball. We've checked that box. Thank you, Nasius.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Mimi. We have simultaneous watches going on. We are on
Lebron Watch Lebron Watch, but with Otani pitching to night
and Otani not batting Deny, and even though he hit
(13:04):
a home run last night, O'tani has been ice cold
at the plate. We are on Otani Way.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
My name is Joe hal Thani Otani Watch.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
So that is a lot of Uh, that's a lot
for great sports talk. That's a lot of dishes for
Matt and I to wash as we go forward here
on this. We just won't be defeated Wednesday, and we're
not even in our normal studio. You know, this is
why Matt and I have held down this position though
uncelebrated for twenty years. And I might leave here in
(13:45):
this uniform simmering angry because where's our celebration? Yeah, you asked.
They're gonna give Colin ye something though, they're gonna take
him to Vegas and celebrate him. Guy's gonna get sick
for eight days afterwards.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
I show up to work, I did some simple math
pee and uh, we weren't. We weren't celebrated for our
ten thousand hours because we managed to get that in
our thirteenth year.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Oh well, what the hell? We hit our our thirteenth
year finally qualified us to do radio.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
Yes, in our thirteenth year, our boss told us, we
asked our ten thousandth hour of doing this radio show together.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
That was a long time. Don Martin adage was you need,
you need ten thousand hours or anything to be to
be hirable. And it's like, well, how can I be hirable?
How can I get ten thousand hours if I'm not hired?
Am I supposed to just do it at home in
the mirror?
Speaker 5 (14:32):
You know the Beatles put in ten thousand hours in Germany.
That's right before anybody ever even heard of them. It's like, okay, yeah,
you know, ten thousand hours. That's what we're talking about.
Planing otis redding covers. Yes, I know, okay, I don't
know where where Adam a and and Kevin Figures are
going to get ten thousand hours. I mean they got
to do their podcast.
Speaker 6 (14:51):
We do it.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
You know, I averaged it it three hours a day,
not at four, because I figured out, you know, it's
a shorter show, smaller shows. We'll average it at three
doing a three hour show every day. And I put
it in for fifty weeks a year. Two weeks off.
It took us thirteen years.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Mass are ten thousand an hour. It just feels like
it's really hard. It's radio together. It feels like it's
really hard to do it.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
That's a lot of work. Yeah, I mean three hours
every day. Well five days.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Gets it in one year. Well there's that. Hey, can
we talk to Ronnie? I mean I feel like is
he we can't? No, we can't talk to Ronnie? Can
I talk? Can we talk to you? You can talk
to me. I'm right here in front of how's Ronnie
going to do the song of the day. He'll be
able to do the song of the day, but you
just can't talk to him. Why is it?
Speaker 6 (15:35):
No?
Speaker 5 (15:35):
Wait, if he can say something on the air that
everyone can hear, we can't hear him while he's talking
on the air.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
It's a working progress. Hear this out?
Speaker 4 (15:45):
So all right, I'm not trying to make it weird.
Who you are making it.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
You're making it, like lebron and Colin said, right now,
we're getting to see how the sausage is made.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
When we're at home, we're.
Speaker 5 (15:54):
Just staring, you know, wearing a pair of sweatpants with
a poots on our hands, talking into a microphone here,
right here, I got a remote in one hand, and
here we're kind of seeing how all the actions happening.
I hates man on the board, which Ronnie usually does
for I feel like Ronnie, well.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
That's not true. I'm still still going through me.
Speaker 8 (16:16):
He's gonna running down the hall, yeah, busting the door.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
I feel like Ronnie right now is a little bit
like Vic. When Bill Ryder was interviewing Molly Knight about
Puig and and and Vic had said some mean things
about Molly Knight, who had said some mean things about Puig,
and Bill Rider thought it prudent because he's a coward
to keep Vic off the interview.
Speaker 5 (16:40):
And not acknowledge what Vic said.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
Right, you know, our colleague Vic the brick says, he
is that you're not inside, that you don't know the players.
And he said something like, you know, he's not available
right now. He's not here at the moment. And Vic
was on the other side of the window, like Ronnie,
beating on the window saying a very very I repeated
line around right off here, Vic swear so him screaming,
(17:06):
I'm right, you really, I mean, it's stuck in our memories.
And I do imagine Ronnie having a very Victor Brick
Molly like night like moment, banging on the glass, going
I'm right off here because I've been I don't control
the levels. Well, let's see what everyone's Yeah. Hello, I
(17:30):
went in there to say before the show start, and
he said, welcome to him. He literally that's what he said.
And I was like, is it that bad? No, no, no,
that bit. I was like, my god, welcome to hell.
And many of you may feel like that since we're
(17:51):
in Lebron Watch and the Dodgers are so inept.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
Yeah, it is a rough time, man. I mean, what
do we got? We got a not a lot. No,
we got a Laker team. I got swept out of
the playoffs. We're gonna talk to James Worthy next second.
We got a Dodger team that's currently the sixth seed,
barely in the National League after being projected to win
one hundred and ten games. O'tani is in a funk.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
I'll tell you what we got. I just thought about it.
The Ducks lost last night. People blame Kates a lot,
they should a lot of the Quackers as they should.
Speaker 8 (18:24):
You're gonna blame me, a long time Ducks fan, for that.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
Yeah, I mean it's been a few months. We got
a remote on Friday. That's a week, got not a lot,
So what you got that's right?
Speaker 5 (18:39):
Going downy together will be down Stonewood Center on a
flex alert. At two o'clock start giveaways. I don't know
who wants Dodger tickets these days, but we'll have them
to give away.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
It will be the lead into Dodgers Angels with their
splendid six thirty eight pm first pitch, So we're gonna
go too until five thirty. At two o'clock start until
five thirty for early Dodgers on Deck. Dodger Diggitts BJ
gift cards take us to see the Intuit Dome MMA
fight card with Ronda Rousey, who took a decade off
(19:13):
from combat sports but it is ready to return, Gina Carano,
Nate Diaz Francis and Ganu and more. We'll have all
those giveaways come see us. Let's establish a community feels
like it's missing these days. Let's get our community back
together and meet at the BJ's restaurant in brew House
(19:33):
in Downey and bond over one common goal and share
our Lebron and Otani watch together.
Speaker 6 (19:40):
Right.
Speaker 8 (19:41):
I know you guys prep zone earlier.
Speaker 9 (19:44):
But did you guys happen to get any text a
reaction about Fred and Rodney with their panic meter first
hour of the show, right to the panic meter, about
the Dodgers and the way they're playing. All they meet,
they have a panic meaner. It's either red, yellow or green?
Which level?
Speaker 4 (19:59):
Are you what? That's kind of don't you think that's
a little bit of a bite off the Petres and
Money shows Panic Brothers.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
Did they take calls and people are just like, Hey, Forrid,
my panic level is yellow, I'm on of you. My
panic level is very my panic level is h That's
what they What do they want to do with that?
Do they do they then share what their panic meter
(20:28):
level is at? Do they run it around the room?
Speaker 4 (20:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Does Ronnie give you his panic meter level?
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Color?
Speaker 6 (20:34):
Well?
Speaker 9 (20:34):
Fred usually is green, but I guess today he was
color yellow. You know, I did think about green.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
I did think about this because it is an unprecedented slump,
I guess is what the Dodgers are in.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
I mean, Kate sent us that text this morning. Since
nineteen thirty something.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
There's only one person that would talk this kind of
panic off the ledge Sara Carross. Oh right, it might
be time for Eric Carrolls to be like, come on, guys,
long easy. Yeah, he'll do that.
Speaker 5 (21:01):
In back to back world series, it's hard to find motivation.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
I mean, you almost got a fistfight that you weren't
there with Assay. They got that means dinner. Yeah, I
don't Thinkassay has paid it off. Yeah, maybe Caros. I'm
not saying we need to book him today. We already
have Vassa on and Worthy, but maybe Caros to try
to calm people's nerves because he's done it in the
past and he has been right. I did just get
(21:25):
a text, Matt text.
Speaker 7 (21:27):
Does a fine brought to you by your so called
Toyota dealers.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
We make it easy. Right down the hall. It's from Ronnie.
It says right over.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Here, Kates is controlling the levels.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
Let's see about that. You playing that music, Kates.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
Believe.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
I am really, it's gonna be a lot of unwritten law.
Little berry Zito.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
Yeah, my own paths, running music books. We're gonna come
back to some lady, hey lady.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
According to Lane Kiffin, did you see the Selma?
Speaker 5 (22:19):
The College Sports Daily was sensational with the Lane Kiffin today.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
I saw the one where he's leading.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
Yeah, you see the Chiffin the Lincoln movie poster.
Speaker 4 (22:30):
Not so let's beary green level equals panic corn flow
red level equals panic.
Speaker 5 (22:45):

the end of a Lakers season. James, how are you.
Speaker 6 (24:34):
Hey, brothers? What's happening?
Speaker 10 (24:36):
Man?
Speaker 6 (24:36):
You know we're the end of the end of the road.
So you know it's it's It was somewhat of a
satisfying season post All Star. You know, when everybody got healthy,
they went on a nice run, got to third or
(24:58):
fourth place in the West. You know, Luca was a
distant nomination for MVP Unfortunately they ran into the best
team in the league. Did a pretty good job against
the Rockets. So I'll give JJ and the coaches to
credit for keeping them above water until they ran into
(25:20):
the defending champions.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
How big of a setback is it that they weren't
able to take inventory and observe what these three guys
would look like at full health against the Thunder to
plan for next year. And you really can't figure out, Hey,
what was the fifteen and two run they had right
before Luca and Austin Reeves went down? And are they
(25:42):
even close to what looks to be a juggernaut and
emerging one in the Spurs? And do we have to
completely retool? Like how hard is it to try to
project how that should look if they bring these guys back?
Speaker 6 (25:56):
The most difficult decision. And you know, when you look
at you know, teams that are stacked with you know,
athletes and you know guys with with with wingspans and
play multiple positions and put pressure on you on both ends. Uh,
that's what the Lakers I think, you know, ran into
(26:17):
a little bit with Minnesota last year. Oklahoma definitely possesses that,
But then when you look at that Antonio. You look
at Detroit that seems to be the you know, the model.
So I think the Lakers are you know, they have
players that could get the job done. I was really
impressed with, you know, really stepping up. You know. Uh,
(26:43):
I think I think guys like you know, we didn't
we didn't have enough at the center position, just not
consistent enough. So we have to we have to look
at that. When you look at like Harstein or you
look at bigs and the league, they're productive, you know,
and so we need that consistency and there you know,
so some areas on the defensive vent. I was impressed
(27:04):
with how they turned it around a little bit and
became a defensive team. So yeah, I'm sure you know,
the new ownership and they're gonna be looking at some
pieces that will you know, help their bench be more
productive and try to you know, have some competitiveness with
some of the you know teams that are like really
(27:25):
dominant right now in Oklahoma, San Antonio. They got to
find a way to match that, you know, and you
look at the regular season, they didn't really farewell against
right you know, at least against Oklahoma.
Speaker 5 (27:37):
James you said it, Oklahoma City is the best defensive
team in the league. The Spurs have the best defensive
player in the league maybe ever. When it's all said
and done, and then you go to the East and
the Pistons are one of, if not the best defensive
team in the East, and they ran that to the
number one seed, it seems like it'd be kind of
hard to get some defensive identity when three fifths of
(28:00):
your starting lineup, if you bring Lebron Austin back with
with Luca, it's just it just seems like it's hard
to do that. That that if you are going to retool,
you're probably gonna have to to focus on Luca, right
and like you said, get better play out of the center,
especially defensively, and in some defensive wings that can can
kind of help out.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
Yeah, I mean, look, this is the season, the summer
of you know, how you're going to retool. What is
Lebron going to do? Do they do they see a
possibility with Lebron? What would his salary? But there's a
lot of things to consider. Do you trade? I mean,
(28:38):
I like Austin Reeves, I mean I hope Austin Reeves stays,
But do you look for you know, a center. I
think Hayes, his effort and his energy is good, but
you know, we need we need somebody that can, you know,
be there every night, a big physical that doesn't give
(28:58):
up offensive rebounds that you know can get in there,
Zo Box or somebody like that, you know what I'm saying.
And I don't know if I don't know how the
chemistry is. I thought it was. I thought it was
staring out pretty well once they got all three guys
together and Lebron was starting to be the role player,
(29:19):
you know, playing the dunker's corner and posting up more
and allowing Austin and Luker to do what they had
to do. But you know they're gonna have to make
some changes if they want to win a championship. You know,
even I think a healthy Laker team as is would
still be challenging. Once you get deeper into the playoffs,
(29:41):
and you know, teams are going to be retooling, you know,
the summer as well. They're going to try to get better.
So you know, you talk about Oklahoma San Antonio, but
then you know you also got to be looking at
teams that are going to be competitive with you, Denver, Houston,
you know, teams like that. So you're not even mention
in the you know, in that elite group at the
(30:03):
moment unless you can, you know, make some changes to
to to to make it better.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
The one and only James Worthy is our guest, and
we're always happy to talk to him, even in times
that are a time of confusion. We're living in a
land of confusion. H James Worthy is our guest. Uh.
The article came out this morning that Lebron was unhappy
apparently that he didn't get the game ball the night
(30:32):
that he passed Kareem with the wins. Although I do
remember when he passed him on the points, there was
a big celebration, and I think they stopped the game
that night. I'm pretty sure they did. And then uh,
and and then he was upset about a couple other
things that they didn't They didn't acknowledge that he changed
his game. I thought there was a lot of acknowledgment
of it. What do you make of that stuff after
(30:52):
the season and that kind of stuff, And how much
do that do they owe Lebron as far as uh,
showing him love? I feel like they do a lot.
Speaker 6 (31:01):
Well, you know, look, I think Lebron and from my perspective,
you know, gets the respect that he deserves. I didn't
know anything about the game Ball. I really didn't. I
didn't didn't know anything about that. But I think that
you know, the city loves Lebron. Uh. You know, he's
brought a lot of excitement to the city. And you know,
(31:21):
I have to worry about, you know, my short game
right now. I got to worry about getting out of
the sand trap. So unless it's something, unless it's something
really really critical, I got to work on that handicapp
But you know, look exactly and and lean and and
put some and put some most of the weight on
(31:42):
that left side. But you know, you know Lebron he's
worked hard, you know, and he's breaking records. So I mean,
I can understand one of the game ball, but I
don't know about you know, getting upset, you know, over
over that record you break, you break Kareem's record. You know,
you you have to be acknowledged for that. I really
(32:02):
didn't know about the other rep At.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
The end of the night, how how big of a
difference or I think the better way to put it
maybe is how different do you think it looks next year?
Speaker 4 (32:12):
James?
Speaker 5 (32:12):
Because it's not just with with salary, cap space and
money and players they could bring in. But you know,
Rob Polinka talking about bringing into assistant gms. Now, they
have not really had a very heavily staffed analytics department.
Sounds like they're going to create that. They want to
bring in you know, more biomechanics and bring in some
more trainers and convert everything they were doing with the
G League and make that a bigger space. Just do
(32:34):
you think this team's going to look similar to this year?
Do you think maybe they're setting this thing up to
really do kind of a heavy reset just in all
phases of what this team looks like.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
Well, it's like a reset to me, new ownership. I'm
sure there's some players that they like, but you know,
I think from what I've seen thus far, I mean
they've they've come in and they've they've already moved some
you know, some media seat out to make you know,
to make for a real seats. So yeah, I mean
it's an overhaul, that's what happens. I mean, it's no
(33:06):
more modern pop ownership. This is you know, they're analytical,
they're you know, adding staff. We've never done that. We've
always had you know, one GM and an assistant GM
making the decisions in the way. You look at what
the Warriors did with with mc myers and you know
the way they brought in all that the systems to
make them champions. The Lakers, you know, I don't think
(33:29):
they've never done that. They've had good you know people
working and you know, scouts and things of that nature.
But it's a different it's a different science now more
than I did other experience. So I'm still catching up
to it. But yeah, you know, you expect changes. You expect,
you know, changes for the better. You expect them to
come in and be analytically correct and you know, maybe
(33:54):
use figners that the Lakers have never used before to
make to make it what it needs to be to
keep up with you know, the current stats of global
sports and global basketball.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
Hey, the technology of Eastern airlines and hot dogs and
Miller lights good enough for us here on the Petrols
and Money Show. It looked good for us back.
Speaker 10 (34:16):
In the day hot dog and chili.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
Any morning, baby, Now, I am you said you're working
on the on the golf game in the off season,
but I am a little concerned. James, Uh, there was
an incident, you know, many years ago at Spectrum Sports
Net where somebody took Geter's food out of the fridge,
and I believe it was during the exit interviews, and
Geeter was very upset. Uh, can you remind him that
(34:40):
he's got to clear out the fridge now that the
season is over and they might take his special Whole
food stuff away, because I know that was a that
was a serious deal back in the day. Geter really
lost his chicken.
Speaker 10 (34:51):
You to do like you did when you're in kindergarten. Man,
you got to put your name on it. Man, big
my fridge, put your name on it, Geter Christ McGee.
Oh how somebody gonna get man Peter's food?
Speaker 4 (35:03):
They took cous that went the Whole Foods I did
a whole deal.
Speaker 6 (35:07):
So he was so freaking mad. I wish you could
have seen him, man.
Speaker 10 (35:11):
I mean, he was hot, he was hungry.
Speaker 6 (35:15):
He was hungry and hot.
Speaker 4 (35:19):
Around there in Elsicano, it's all industrial stuff. Don't want
to eat. Uh, we got James. Did you see anything
from OKC or or or anybody else in the playoffs
that makes you think that they're not going to win
it all?
Speaker 6 (35:35):
Look there machine you know, they remind me of the
Philadelphia seventy six is when they had Moses Malone. Nobody
was going to beat them. They remind me of like
Shaq and Kobe and you know the Dynasty. Maybe you
know that one of the Celtic and Laker teams that
they ate it. They just have it, man. And you
know when you see them, they have size, they make
(35:59):
great decisions. It's almost like they don't have to think.
And when you have a team like that, well you
don't have to think. You're just reacting. And defensively, you know,
when you were in high school, the coach when you
were in a zone, a two to three zone or
a one to three one zone, you know, coach always says,
put your hands up, put your hands up, keep them out.
It makes a difference. Man. They're active, they're fitital on defense,
(36:24):
and they have Chet Holman, who's a threat. I mean,
who's this kid? Wallace and McCain. I mean I've never
I mean I've never seen a team so deep in
the NBA. I mean, the Lakers had you know, they
had Sel Robert or they had guys like that and Dish,
but this team ball did they produce when your starters,
(36:44):
consider on the bench and cheer for your bench, and
the bench is just shelacing your ass. It's it's tough.
Speaker 5 (36:53):
I don't know if you consume basketball the way the
average fan does once the Lakers are out of it, James,
But do you do you find yourself rooting for you know,
the team is busting their ass playing defense like okay see,
or for you know what looks to be the face
of the NBA and Wembin Yaman getting him to the
NBA Finals. Or did you have any friends on those
(37:14):
Knicks teams that could never get over the hump against
the Celtics back in the eighties, you know, Bernard King
or Bill Cartwright or something like that, that you'd like
to see the Knicks maybe get their first championship in
over fifty years. Do you care who ends up holding
up that Larry O'Brien Trophy when it's all over.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
Well, no, it's the Lakers. I hold it up. You know,
I like the Wats and you know, just to see,
you know, who's good and what's happening. But when the
Knicks won the Emirates Cup back in December, but then
had a championship since ninety seventy two or something like that,
(37:50):
and when they won that Emortge Cup, I was like, damn,
that's at least a championship. And I think it propelled
them to tell them good, you know it, something good
that they achieved that. And so uh for Patrick Ewing,
my guy who I played against the Georgetown Bnar King,
(38:13):
Trent Tucker, you know guys like that, you know who
played for the Knicks.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
Uh Sparrow, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (38:22):
Roy Sparrow, you know Mason. You know, I'm I'm kind
of I'm kind of favorite, and I like New York.
New York's a great city. I like to visit for
three or four days. But yeah, I'm kind of I'm
kind of looking at that. I don't know why. Clyde Frazier,
you know, I was a big you know, uh Earl
of Pearl Monroe fans, So I don't know. I kind
(38:42):
of I'm kind of kind of looking at the next
Like when I watch him play, I find myself pulling
for him in the last, you know, last series and
this one that there and now so careful.
Speaker 4 (38:52):
What they're gonna win and become in You're the best.
We appreciate you, thank you, and stay away from Peter,
He's going to be trouble today if somebody eats his food.
Speaker 6 (39:07):
Yeah, I think it was me who got his food.
Speaker 4 (39:15):
Good luck with the short day. There he goes.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
That would be up for you.
Speaker 4 (39:20):
Shit right, listen. I've never admitted it is, but it
was me.
Speaker 5 (39:25):
James Worthy brought to you about the Ford Maverick motor
trends in the North American Truck of the Year. The
Ford Maverick everything you need in the most innovative truck
with forty two miles per gallon and the best NSRP
of its category. It's time to see Ford in a
new light. Is it your Southern California fort dealers today?
Speaker 4 (39:39):
Tatalia is a pimp. It was Barzini all along, but
I did not know it until this day. The James
Worthy ate my food out of the refrigerator when spectrum
sports in that La started so many years ago, I
think it was me and I threw a temper tantrum
in front of every I yelled at the cleaning staff.
I accused them of throwing out my food. They need
(40:01):
to send out an email saying the refrigerator is going
to be clean before throwing up food and the refrigerator
and the season refrigerator clean out reminder for Geeter. Have
a great weekend everybody at Lakerland, but we have to

I studio. Right now, John Cobelt just hit the air.
Duke of sports is sprinting around like there's breaking news

We are together in the Dodger Studio. At a certain
point we are going to have to leave, but don't worry.
You will get your three hours of great sports talk,
great sports talk. Laker news keeps flowing in on the
Laker News or Lebron James News. They're one of the same.
(02:51):
Right now, Lebron watch James Worthy. We put him off.
We thought maybe we should do him yesterday because the
Lakers lost and all that, But no, it was good
that we waited today and held on like braveheart hold.
(03:11):
James Worthy will join us in the very next segment
and we'll talk about the Lakers future and the very
immediate past and what is going to happen with Lebron James.
And I'll tell you this, if I had just broken
some kind of Radio milestone, and on my way out,
our boss Brian Long gave Colin yee like the special bobblehead.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
Like, here's your five hundredth engineering broadcast for Dodgers Radio Award.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
And I just crossed the threshold. You hit your ten
thousand hours, my man down, Finally I'm able to work
on airon Eraduly, I'm not in the Union. Way to go,
Way to go, my man. How is ten thousand hours
on the radio?
Speaker 6 (03:59):
My god?
Speaker 4 (04:01):
But I have to say that because of this very
exciting time in all of our lives, we are here
together in a farm out studio.
Speaker 5 (04:17):
And staring at Tim Kates and Colini's baseball card collection.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
I would be very upset if somebody kinda just eschewed
me and what I've accomplished over the years like they
did to Lebron. Now, I think I can understand. I
know what you're getting at here, but I do think
they're we're together here, And if I was in my house,
I'd probably have more choice words. Yeah, hiding behind the
walls of my house, but I would say I would
kick everybody's ass right here. I would have kicked their
(04:43):
ass if they didn't give me the game ball. Compare
they didn't give me my game ball.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Comparing yourself to Lebron is a embarrassing.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
I've been doing this a long time of twenty years,
just like Lebron and Colin, he's only been around a
short amount of time. Like JJ Reddick. It's the same.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
And we have never been acknowledged for anything that in
our entire career. We were not celebrated for five years.
We were not celebrated for ten years, we were not
celebrated for fifteen years, none of our milestone. We were
not celebrated for twenty and will not be celebrated for twenty.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
But there was a time that us winning a Marconi
would have celebrated somebody else, and we did get celebrated
for that, And when the winds came and the fires blue,
we got special trophies from that interim guy. The only yes,
remember that that is true.
Speaker 5 (05:35):
The only reason you are right, Matt, I gave us
a trophy, a participation trophy. The only reason they went
to our Southern California Sports Broadcasters Award luncheon when we
won our Show of the Year was because it gave
him a day off work.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
And they ate you're right. We haven't been widely are milestones.
We don't get to wear a special patch. We've never
had it. It's our twenty year of petros and money
to you, and I wear a patch like Lebron does. Right,
none of that has happened, You're.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Right, no special Come to the iHeart studio across the
street where the Tonight Show is filmed. They let's celebrate
these guys. As a guy who's been working on this
show for twenty years.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
I would say, and and then you look at Colin
Yee's tenure, even though everybody likes them a lot, like
they like JJ Reddick. I thought, what would I do
if that happened to me, if it was a big
milestone for me? And I'm walking around like I can't
wait to see what everybody does when I show up
at work today for this great radio milestone, the five
(06:35):
billionth time I've said to Nights, I mean, whatever it is,
whatever that milestone is. And then all of a sudden,
like you almost think it's a joke, they're like, hey, everybody,
Colin Yee has surpassed Dave Magdaleno's engineering streak. And you're
just sitting there, like, when are they going to turn
(06:56):
and be like a practical joke ahole, and it never happened,
And I would just leave on my radio uniform and
walk out, fuck out, angry into the caller, to the
cold and damp sure into the night.
Speaker 5 (07:09):
And if you don't know what, because this is an
audio medium, if you don't know what a radio uniform
looks like, just think of a train conductor. That's basically
what we wear. It's kind of like a one piece suit.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Beast boys. There's this vertical. Ours is horizontal, colectic, planetary, planetary.
Speaker 5 (07:26):
But again, the difference is the Lakers have celebrated Lebron
No less than twenty times in his eight years here.
Most free throws, most baskets, most regular season points, most
regular season plus playoff points, most wins. But all of
those things, the games have stopped. There has been a celebration,
there has been an announcement, there has been a presentation.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Of a ball. This one time. Now, Matt, he couldn't
look more petty if he did that jump over the
thing like that guy that attacked the judge, you know
in Vegas, if he attacked if he attacked JJ Reddick
while Rob Blanka was getting the game on Lebron comes
across the room full sellout, like that guy attacked that
poor lady Judd. If he did that, this would be
(08:11):
a better story. But it's hard. He kind of did though,
when the top got up and left. It's hard to top.
It's a bad it's a bad look, and it's a
story trying to make Lebron look good and he looks terrible.
What a slight? What is wrong with you, Lebron?
Speaker 5 (08:28):
What a slight this man made at got his one
hundredth coaching victory.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
That's supposed to be our takeaway from the Lakers season
this year. Lebron wasn't celebrated enough save it mcminnimon.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
And they didn't appreciate him for taking a back seat
to Luca and Austin Reeves when the team went on
a fifteen win in seventeen game run. Somehow they were
supposed to acknowledge, Hey, thanks for doing what we really
wanted you to do all year, but we're afraid to
ask you to do all year and eventually had to
come ask you to do it because we'd gone five
(09:00):
and seven over our previous twelve games. But thank you
for doing that, even though we went fifteen and two
on this stretch, and we really shouldn't be thanking you.
We should be saying, see you see what happens when
you listen to us. So it's indirectly and I don't
know if that was mcminnimon's intention, but it was, like
you said, indirectly, a handful of shots. They're taking it
(09:24):
Lebron in this one. Yeah, I mean, can't be trying
to say, well, the Lakers got a really kind of
men's some fences here, But in the process of doing that,
it's like, really they meant that, do they.
Speaker 4 (09:33):
Have some mend fences? They're under new ownership. That ownership
just one back to back world series in the MLB,
and that brings us to our next six series of
points here in the open of the show. James Worthy
will join us next and we'll get more into the Lakers,
and Matt has a top story of the day, and
we'll get more into the Lakers. And David Vassa will
join us in the five o'clock hour and he will
(09:54):
talk more about the Dodgers. We are your Dodger Station.
They were beaten last night by the Giants, even though
show hey Tom, he hit a home run and a
lot of people are blaming us because we didn't we
do we didn't play the poodle bay ball. Wait wait, wait,
and you cannot deny that. I don't know what the
Dodgers have done up to this point, but I.
Speaker 5 (10:16):
Mean we played and the Atlanta Braves song and they
lost two out of three.
Speaker 4 (10:21):
Yeah, I'm just saying I've been blamed on the text
OsO and I do have to say in regards to
the pros, the Giants have come in here corn flow
with yeah and flavor and taken it to the Dodgers
and it's a terrible look. As David Vasse proclaimed, there
would be a six game winning streak starting last night,
(10:43):
and that did not have a two game that did
not happen. Plus two game losing strek. Yeah, it's not good.
Pot O baballa.
Speaker 7 (10:54):
It's not just how we watched the game, it's where
of the game is played with identity. It's how we
live it, it's how we love it, how we refuse.
Speaker 8 (11:06):
To leave any any any dream.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Half play half play.
Speaker 7 (11:11):
In the Bay Baseball is more than just a sport.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Let's look at lap of sound.
Speaker 8 (11:17):
Shot, every clap, every chance, every botmos.
Speaker 7 (11:20):
He got this boo bay Ball is showing up loud
every night like it's game set. From San Francisco to
San Jose to the East Bay. Our stories to turn
every home game into something bigger. That's why this jersey
carries one word.
Speaker 6 (11:39):
He got.
Speaker 4 (11:53):
The West. He got this. The Giants have really been
taking it to the Dodgers. Really bring on that poodle
Bayball from the Bay Area straight to the necks of
your Los Angeles Dodgers. And it has been hard to watch.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
So their starter had an ERA of six. Yeah, just
going into last night. I mean the Dodgers hit that guy.
The Dodgers aren't good, Matt.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
They stink. They're twenty four and eighteen, but they're still
terrible and it's difficult to watch. And we'll see what
Dave Roberts does, and David Vasse will answer for it
like he answered for it yesterday.
Speaker 5 (12:27):
They're barely hanging under the last playoff spot. The Reds
and the Pirates are nipping at their heels. So if
you are paying attention at home, we have dealt with
Poole Baball. We've checked that box. Thank you, Nasius.
Speaker 4 (12:43):
Mimi. We have simultaneous watches going on. We are on
Lebron Watch Lebron Watch, but with Otani pitching to night
and Otani not batting Deny, and even though he hit
(13:04):
a home run last night, O'tani has been ice cold
at the plate. We are on Otani Way.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
My name is Joe hal Thani Otani Watch.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
So that is a lot of Uh, that's a lot
for great sports talk. That's a lot of dishes for
Matt and I to wash as we go forward here
on this. We just won't be defeated Wednesday, and we're
not even in our normal studio. You know, this is
why Matt and I have held down this position though
uncelebrated for twenty years. And I might leave here in
(13:45):
this uniform simmering angry because where's our celebration? Yeah, you asked.
They're gonna give Colin ye something though, they're gonna take
him to Vegas and celebrate him. Guy's gonna get sick
for eight days afterwards.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
I show up to work, I did some simple math
pee and uh, we weren't. We weren't celebrated for our
ten thousand hours because we managed to get that in
our thirteenth year.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Oh well, what the hell? We hit our our thirteenth
year finally qualified us to do radio.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
Yes, in our thirteenth year, our boss told us, we
asked our ten thousandth hour of doing this radio show together.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
That was a long time. Don Martin adage was you need,
you need ten thousand hours or anything to be to
be hirable. And it's like, well, how can I be hirable?
How can I get ten thousand hours if I'm not hired?
Am I supposed to just do it at home in
the mirror?
Speaker 5 (14:32):
You know the Beatles put in ten thousand hours in Germany.
That's right before anybody ever even heard of them. It's like, okay, yeah,
you know, ten thousand hours. That's what we're talking about.
Planing otis redding covers. Yes, I know, okay, I don't
know where where Adam a and and Kevin Figures are
going to get ten thousand hours. I mean they got
to do their podcast.
Speaker 6 (14:51):
We do it.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
You know, I averaged it it three hours a day,
not at four, because I figured out, you know, it's
a shorter show, smaller shows. We'll average it at three
doing a three hour show every day. And I put
it in for fifty weeks a year. Two weeks off.
It took us thirteen years.
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Mass are ten thousand an hour. It just feels like
it's really hard. It's radio together. It feels like it's
really hard to do it.
Speaker 5 (15:15):
That's a lot of work. Yeah, I mean three hours
every day. Well five days.
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Gets it in one year. Well there's that. Hey, can
we talk to Ronnie? I mean I feel like is
he we can't? No, we can't talk to Ronnie? Can
I talk? Can we talk to you? You can talk
to me. I'm right here in front of how's Ronnie
going to do the song of the day. He'll be
able to do the song of the day, but you
just can't talk to him. Why is it?
Speaker 6 (15:35):
No?
Speaker 5 (15:35):
Wait, if he can say something on the air that
everyone can hear, we can't hear him while he's talking
on the air.
Speaker 8 (15:43):
It's a working progress. Hear this out?
Speaker 4 (15:45):
So all right, I'm not trying to make it weird.
Who you are making it.
Speaker 5 (15:49):
You're making it, like lebron and Colin said, right now,
we're getting to see how the sausage is made.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
When we're at home, we're.
Speaker 5 (15:54):
Just staring, you know, wearing a pair of sweatpants with
a poots on our hands, talking into a microphone here,
right here, I got a remote in one hand, and
here we're kind of seeing how all the actions happening.
I hates man on the board, which Ronnie usually does
for I feel like Ronnie, well.
Speaker 4 (16:13):
That's not true. I'm still still going through me.
Speaker 8 (16:16):
He's gonna running down the hall, yeah, busting the door.
Speaker 4 (16:19):
I feel like Ronnie right now is a little bit
like Vic. When Bill Ryder was interviewing Molly Knight about
Puig and and and Vic had said some mean things
about Molly Knight, who had said some mean things about Puig,
and Bill Rider thought it prudent because he's a coward
to keep Vic off the interview.
Speaker 5 (16:40):
And not acknowledge what Vic said.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
Right, you know, our colleague Vic the brick says, he
is that you're not inside, that you don't know the players.
And he said something like, you know, he's not available
right now. He's not here at the moment. And Vic
was on the other side of the window, like Ronnie,
beating on the window saying a very very I repeated
line around right off here, Vic swear so him screaming,
(17:06):
I'm right, you really, I mean, it's stuck in our memories.
And I do imagine Ronnie having a very Victor Brick
Molly like night like moment, banging on the glass, going
I'm right off here because I've been I don't control
the levels. Well, let's see what everyone's Yeah. Hello, I
(17:30):
went in there to say before the show start, and
he said, welcome to him. He literally that's what he said.
And I was like, is it that bad? No, no, no,
that bit. I was like, my god, welcome to hell.
And many of you may feel like that since we're
(17:51):
in Lebron Watch and the Dodgers are so inept.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
Yeah, it is a rough time, man. I mean, what
do we got? We got a not a lot. No,
we got a Laker team. I got swept out of
the playoffs. We're gonna talk to James Worthy next second.
We got a Dodger team that's currently the sixth seed,
barely in the National League after being projected to win
one hundred and ten games. O'tani is in a funk.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
I'll tell you what we got. I just thought about it.
The Ducks lost last night. People blame Kates a lot,
they should a lot of the Quackers as they should.
Speaker 8 (18:24):
You're gonna blame me, a long time Ducks fan, for that.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
Yeah, I mean it's been a few months. We got
a remote on Friday. That's a week, got not a lot,
So what you got that's right?
Speaker 5 (18:39):
Going downy together will be down Stonewood Center on a
flex alert. At two o'clock start giveaways. I don't know
who wants Dodger tickets these days, but we'll have them
to give away.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
It will be the lead into Dodgers Angels with their
splendid six thirty eight pm first pitch, So we're gonna
go too until five thirty. At two o'clock start until
five thirty for early Dodgers on Deck. Dodger Diggitts BJ
gift cards take us to see the Intuit Dome MMA
fight card with Ronda Rousey, who took a decade off
(19:13):
from combat sports but it is ready to return, Gina Carano,
Nate Diaz Francis and Ganu and more. We'll have all
those giveaways come see us. Let's establish a community feels
like it's missing these days. Let's get our community back
together and meet at the BJ's restaurant in brew House
(19:33):
in Downey and bond over one common goal and share
our Lebron and Otani watch together.
Speaker 6 (19:40):
Right.
Speaker 8 (19:41):
I know you guys prep zone earlier.
Speaker 9 (19:44):
But did you guys happen to get any text a
reaction about Fred and Rodney with their panic meter first
hour of the show, right to the panic meter, about
the Dodgers and the way they're playing. All they meet,
they have a panic meaner. It's either red, yellow or green?
Which level?
Speaker 4 (19:59):
Are you what? That's kind of don't you think that's
a little bit of a bite off the Petres and
Money shows Panic Brothers.
Speaker 5 (20:07):
Did they take calls and people are just like, Hey, Forrid,
my panic level is yellow, I'm on of you. My
panic level is very my panic level is h That's
what they What do they want to do with that?
Do they do they then share what their panic meter
(20:28):
level is at? Do they run it around the room?
Speaker 4 (20:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Does Ronnie give you his panic meter level?
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Color?
Speaker 6 (20:34):
Well?
Speaker 9 (20:34):
Fred usually is green, but I guess today he was
color yellow. You know, I did think about green.
Speaker 4 (20:40):
I did think about this because it is an unprecedented slump,
I guess is what the Dodgers are in.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
I mean, Kate sent us that text this morning. Since
nineteen thirty something.
Speaker 4 (20:48):
There's only one person that would talk this kind of
panic off the ledge Sara Carross. Oh right, it might
be time for Eric Carrolls to be like, come on, guys,
long easy. Yeah, he'll do that.
Speaker 5 (21:01):
In back to back world series, it's hard to find motivation.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
I mean, you almost got a fistfight that you weren't
there with Assay. They got that means dinner. Yeah, I
don't Thinkassay has paid it off. Yeah, maybe Caros. I'm
not saying we need to book him today. We already
have Vassa on and Worthy, but maybe Caros to try
to calm people's nerves because he's done it in the
past and he has been right. I did just get
(21:25):
a text, Matt text.
Speaker 7 (21:27):
Does a fine brought to you by your so called
Toyota dealers.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
We make it easy. Right down the hall. It's from Ronnie.
It says right over.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Here, Kates is controlling the levels.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
Let's see about that. You playing that music, Kates.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
Believe.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
I am really, it's gonna be a lot of unwritten law.
Little berry Zito.
Speaker 5 (22:01):
Yeah, my own paths, running music books. We're gonna come
back to some lady, hey lady.
Speaker 4 (22:13):
According to Lane Kiffin, did you see the Selma?
Speaker 5 (22:19):
The College Sports Daily was sensational with the Lane Kiffin today.
Speaker 4 (22:23):
I saw the one where he's leading.
Speaker 5 (22:25):
Yeah, you see the Chiffin the Lincoln movie poster.
Speaker 4 (22:30):
Not so let's beary green level equals panic corn flow
red level equals panic.
Speaker 5 (22:45):
James Worthy will join us to talk Lakers exit meetings.
Where do we go from here? Which is the way
that's clear that it is coming up?
Speaker 6 (22:52):
Next?

miles per gallon at the best MSRP of its category.
It's time to see Ford in a new light. Visit
your southern California for dealers today.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
Well, it's been a rough time, there's no doubt in
the city. But as we bring in some cool jazz
maybe a bit of a healing moment to talk to
the great James Worthy. The city couldn't wait for him.
He had to go on Dan Patrick this morning because
(23:55):
there's a lot going on.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
They poached us, They did poached. We were poached.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
The pie was cooling on our window sill. They just
stuck his diurdy hand in it.
Speaker 6 (24:07):
Dole it.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
That's right now, is our dear friend, James Worthy, Hall
of Famer, Emmy Award winner. His jersey hangs in the rafters.
The memories of his great play live in our minds
and hearts, and of course you see them all the
time on Spectrum Sports. That la you see them there
on your screen. There is a there's a lot of
(24:29):
a lot of backlashes. There always seems to be at
the end of a Lakers season. James, how are you.
Speaker 6 (24:34):
Hey, brothers? What's happening?
Speaker 10 (24:36):
Man?
Speaker 6 (24:36):
You know we're the end of the end of the road.
So you know it's it's It was somewhat of a
satisfying season post All Star. You know, when everybody got healthy,
they went on a nice run, got to third or
(24:58):
fourth place in the West. You know, Luca was a
distant nomination for MVP Unfortunately they ran into the best
team in the league. Did a pretty good job against
the Rockets. So I'll give JJ and the coaches to
credit for keeping them above water until they ran into
(25:20):
the defending champions.
Speaker 5 (25:21):
How big of a setback is it that they weren't
able to take inventory and observe what these three guys
would look like at full health against the Thunder to
plan for next year. And you really can't figure out, Hey,
what was the fifteen and two run they had right
before Luca and Austin Reeves went down? And are they
(25:42):
even close to what looks to be a juggernaut and
emerging one in the Spurs? And do we have to
completely retool? Like how hard is it to try to
project how that should look if they bring these guys back?
Speaker 6 (25:56):
The most difficult decision. And you know, when you look
at you know, teams that are stacked with you know,
athletes and you know guys with with with wingspans and
play multiple positions and put pressure on you on both ends. Uh,
that's what the Lakers I think, you know, ran into
(26:17):
a little bit with Minnesota last year. Oklahoma definitely possesses that,
But then when you look at that Antonio. You look
at Detroit that seems to be the you know, the model.
So I think the Lakers are you know, they have
players that could get the job done. I was really
impressed with, you know, really stepping up. You know. Uh,
(26:43):
I think I think guys like you know, we didn't
we didn't have enough at the center position, just not
consistent enough. So we have to we have to look
at that. When you look at like Harstein or you
look at bigs and the league, they're productive, you know,
and so we need that consistency and there you know,
so some areas on the defensive vent. I was impressed
(27:04):
with how they turned it around a little bit and
became a defensive team. So yeah, I'm sure you know,
the new ownership and they're gonna be looking at some
pieces that will you know, help their bench be more
productive and try to you know, have some competitiveness with
some of the you know teams that are like really
(27:25):
dominant right now in Oklahoma, San Antonio. They got to
find a way to match that, you know, and you
look at the regular season, they didn't really farewell against
right you know, at least against Oklahoma.
Speaker 5 (27:37):
James you said it, Oklahoma City is the best defensive
team in the league. The Spurs have the best defensive
player in the league maybe ever. When it's all said
and done, and then you go to the East and
the Pistons are one of, if not the best defensive
team in the East, and they ran that to the
number one seed, it seems like it'd be kind of
hard to get some defensive identity when three fifths of
(28:00):
your starting lineup, if you bring Lebron Austin back with
with Luca, it's just it just seems like it's hard
to do that. That that if you are going to retool,
you're probably gonna have to to focus on Luca, right
and like you said, get better play out of the center,
especially defensively, and in some defensive wings that can can
kind of help out.
Speaker 6 (28:18):
Yeah, I mean, look, this is the season, the summer
of you know, how you're going to retool. What is
Lebron going to do? Do they do they see a
possibility with Lebron? What would his salary? But there's a
lot of things to consider. Do you trade? I mean,
(28:38):
I like Austin Reeves, I mean I hope Austin Reeves stays,
But do you look for you know, a center. I
think Hayes, his effort and his energy is good, but
you know, we need we need somebody that can, you know,
be there every night, a big physical that doesn't give
(28:58):
up offensive rebounds that you know can get in there,
Zo Box or somebody like that, you know what I'm saying.
And I don't know if I don't know how the
chemistry is. I thought it was. I thought it was
staring out pretty well once they got all three guys
together and Lebron was starting to be the role player,
(29:19):
you know, playing the dunker's corner and posting up more
and allowing Austin and Luker to do what they had
to do. But you know they're gonna have to make
some changes if they want to win a championship. You know,
even I think a healthy Laker team as is would
still be challenging. Once you get deeper into the playoffs,
(29:41):
and you know, teams are going to be retooling, you know,
the summer as well. They're going to try to get better.
So you know, you talk about Oklahoma San Antonio, but
then you know you also got to be looking at
teams that are going to be competitive with you, Denver, Houston,
you know, teams like that. So you're not even mention
in the you know, in that elite group at the
(30:03):
moment unless you can, you know, make some changes to
to to to make it better.
Speaker 4 (30:10):
The one and only James Worthy is our guest, and
we're always happy to talk to him, even in times
that are a time of confusion. We're living in a
land of confusion. H James Worthy is our guest. Uh.
The article came out this morning that Lebron was unhappy
apparently that he didn't get the game ball the night
(30:32):
that he passed Kareem with the wins. Although I do
remember when he passed him on the points, there was
a big celebration, and I think they stopped the game
that night. I'm pretty sure they did. And then uh,
and and then he was upset about a couple other
things that they didn't They didn't acknowledge that he changed
his game. I thought there was a lot of acknowledgment
of it. What do you make of that stuff after
(30:52):
the season and that kind of stuff, And how much
do that do they owe Lebron as far as uh,
showing him love? I feel like they do a lot.
Speaker 6 (31:01):
Well, you know, look, I think Lebron and from my perspective,
you know, gets the respect that he deserves. I didn't
know anything about the game Ball. I really didn't. I
didn't didn't know anything about that. But I think that
you know, the city loves Lebron. Uh. You know, he's
brought a lot of excitement to the city. And you know,
(31:21):
I have to worry about, you know, my short game
right now. I got to worry about getting out of
the sand trap. So unless it's something, unless it's something
really really critical, I got to work on that handicapp
But you know, look exactly and and lean and and
put some and put some most of the weight on
(31:42):
that left side. But you know, you know Lebron he's
worked hard, you know, and he's breaking records. So I mean,
I can understand one of the game ball, but I
don't know about you know, getting upset, you know, over
over that record you break, you break Kareem's record. You know,
you you have to be acknowledged for that. I really
(32:02):
didn't know about the other rep At.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
The end of the night, how how big of a
difference or I think the better way to put it
maybe is how different do you think it looks next year?
Speaker 4 (32:12):
James?
Speaker 5 (32:12):
Because it's not just with with salary, cap space and
money and players they could bring in. But you know,
Rob Polinka talking about bringing into assistant gms. Now, they
have not really had a very heavily staffed analytics department.
Sounds like they're going to create that. They want to
bring in you know, more biomechanics and bring in some
more trainers and convert everything they were doing with the
G League and make that a bigger space. Just do
(32:34):
you think this team's going to look similar to this year?
Do you think maybe they're setting this thing up to
really do kind of a heavy reset just in all
phases of what this team looks like.
Speaker 6 (32:46):
Well, it's like a reset to me, new ownership. I'm
sure there's some players that they like, but you know,
I think from what I've seen thus far, I mean
they've they've come in and they've they've already moved some
you know, some media seat out to make you know,
to make for a real seats. So yeah, I mean
it's an overhaul, that's what happens. I mean, it's no
(33:06):
more modern pop ownership. This is you know, they're analytical,
they're you know, adding staff. We've never done that. We've
always had you know, one GM and an assistant GM
making the decisions in the way. You look at what
the Warriors did with with mc myers and you know
the way they brought in all that the systems to
make them champions. The Lakers, you know, I don't think
(33:29):
they've never done that. They've had good you know people
working and you know, scouts and things of that nature.
But it's a different it's a different science now more
than I did other experience. So I'm still catching up
to it. But yeah, you know, you expect changes. You expect,
you know, changes for the better. You expect them to
come in and be analytically correct and you know, maybe
(33:54):
use figners that the Lakers have never used before to
make to make it what it needs to be to
keep up with you know, the current stats of global
sports and global basketball.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
Hey, the technology of Eastern airlines and hot dogs and
Miller lights good enough for us here on the Petrols
and Money Show. It looked good for us back.
Speaker 10 (34:16):
In the day hot dog and chili.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
Any morning, baby, Now, I am you said you're working
on the on the golf game in the off season,
but I am a little concerned. James, Uh, there was
an incident, you know, many years ago at Spectrum Sports
Net where somebody took Geter's food out of the fridge,
and I believe it was during the exit interviews, and
Geeter was very upset. Uh, can you remind him that
(34:40):
he's got to clear out the fridge now that the
season is over and they might take his special Whole
food stuff away, because I know that was a that
was a serious deal back in the day. Geter really
lost his chicken.
Speaker 10 (34:51):
You to do like you did when you're in kindergarten. Man,
you got to put your name on it. Man, big
my fridge, put your name on it, Geter Christ McGee.
Oh how somebody gonna get man Peter's food?
Speaker 4 (35:03):
They took cous that went the Whole Foods I did
a whole deal.
Speaker 6 (35:07):
So he was so freaking mad. I wish you could
have seen him, man.
Speaker 10 (35:11):
I mean, he was hot, he was hungry.
Speaker 6 (35:15):
He was hungry and hot.
Speaker 4 (35:19):
Around there in Elsicano, it's all industrial stuff. Don't want
to eat. Uh, we got James. Did you see anything
from OKC or or or anybody else in the playoffs
that makes you think that they're not going to win
it all?
Speaker 6 (35:35):
Look there machine you know, they remind me of the
Philadelphia seventy six is when they had Moses Malone. Nobody
was going to beat them. They remind me of like
Shaq and Kobe and you know the Dynasty. Maybe you
know that one of the Celtic and Laker teams that
they ate it. They just have it, man. And you
know when you see them, they have size, they make
(35:59):
great decisions. It's almost like they don't have to think.
And when you have a team like that, well you
don't have to think. You're just reacting. And defensively, you know,
when you were in high school, the coach when you
were in a zone, a two to three zone or
a one to three one zone, you know, coach always says,
put your hands up, put your hands up, keep them out.
It makes a difference. Man. They're active, they're fitital on defense,
(36:24):
and they have Chet Holman, who's a threat. I mean,
who's this kid? Wallace and McCain. I mean I've never
I mean I've never seen a team so deep in
the NBA. I mean, the Lakers had you know, they
had Sel Robert or they had guys like that and Dish,
but this team ball did they produce when your starters,
(36:44):
consider on the bench and cheer for your bench, and
the bench is just shelacing your ass. It's it's tough.
Speaker 5 (36:53):
I don't know if you consume basketball the way the
average fan does once the Lakers are out of it, James,
But do you do you find yourself rooting for you know,
the team is busting their ass playing defense like okay see,
or for you know what looks to be the face
of the NBA and Wembin Yaman getting him to the
NBA Finals. Or did you have any friends on those
(37:14):
Knicks teams that could never get over the hump against
the Celtics back in the eighties, you know, Bernard King
or Bill Cartwright or something like that, that you'd like
to see the Knicks maybe get their first championship in
over fifty years. Do you care who ends up holding
up that Larry O'Brien Trophy when it's all over.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
Well, no, it's the Lakers. I hold it up. You know,
I like the Wats and you know, just to see,
you know, who's good and what's happening. But when the
Knicks won the Emirates Cup back in December, but then
had a championship since ninety seventy two or something like that,
(37:50):
and when they won that Emortge Cup, I was like, damn,
that's at least a championship. And I think it propelled
them to tell them good, you know it, something good
that they achieved that. And so uh for Patrick Ewing,
my guy who I played against the Georgetown Bnar King,
(38:13):
Trent Tucker, you know guys like that, you know who
played for the Knicks.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
Uh Sparrow, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6 (38:22):
Roy Sparrow, you know Mason. You know, I'm I'm kind
of I'm kind of favorite, and I like New York.
New York's a great city. I like to visit for
three or four days. But yeah, I'm kind of I'm
kind of looking at that. I don't know why. Clyde Frazier,
you know, I was a big you know, uh Earl
of Pearl Monroe fans, So I don't know. I kind
(38:42):
of I'm kind of kind of looking at the next
Like when I watch him play, I find myself pulling
for him in the last, you know, last series and
this one that there and now so careful.
Speaker 4 (38:52):
What they're gonna win and become in You're the best.
We appreciate you, thank you, and stay away from Peter,
He's going to be trouble today if somebody eats his food.
Speaker 6 (39:07):
Yeah, I think it was me who got his food.
Speaker 4 (39:15):
Good luck with the short day. There he goes.
Speaker 6 (39:19):
That would be up for you.
Speaker 4 (39:20):
Shit right, listen. I've never admitted it is, but it
was me.
Speaker 5 (39:25):

trends in the North American Truck of the Year. The
Ford Maverick everything you need in the most innovative truck

I did not know it until this day. The James
Worthy ate my food out of the refrigerator when spectrum
sports in that La started so many years ago, I
think it was me and I threw a temper tantrum
in front of every I yelled at the cleaning staff.
I accused them of throwing out my food. They need
(40:01):
to send out an email saying the refrigerator is going
to be clean before throwing up food and the refrigerator
and the season refrigerator clean out reminder for Geeter. Have

hit coast one O three five.

to beating on the glass. Is going to flying through
the glass, Yeah, to stop him and then change all
the I'm going to stay home to.

not sustainable. No play that again. I'm sorry that guy's
very Kates is.
Speaker 13 (43:25):
Playing with fire. Ryanie is not going to be beating on
the glass. Is going flying through the glass to stop him,

Thank you, sir, sir, Thank you, sir James. How many
years would you like to see the Lakers getting nailed
by the King? Well, I got an eight footer with
a double break that I'm staring at right now. Nine
am at la country.
Speaker 5 (44:23):
I want to play it about three inches outside the
right edge and see.
Speaker 12 (44:28):
Bend over la, get on your hands, knees, get nail
by twen three.
Speaker 4 (44:42):
I hate when we do this.
Speaker 12 (44:43):
Bend over La, get on your hands, knee nail by
tween three.

Let's play, guys.
Speaker 11 (45:07):
I love the alarms that you played for the Panic Brothers,
not because of some sort of shot and foot. And
when I like to see the Dodgers fail, it's because
it reminds me of this car alarm that my friend's
mom got him one Christmas. It had all those alarms
except for at one point it stopped and would.
Speaker 12 (45:23):
Go, please help me, Please help me, ear, Please help me,

the alarm. And I mean we pulled out the plant brothers.
We pulled out everything we possibly could. We played the
poodle baseball. I mean we've done everything, and nothing has happened.
(45:55):
The Dodgers' bats are still so consound. You hate to
see it.
Speaker 5 (46:02):
Yeah, you do. Like you're watching the game and you're
filled with hate.
Speaker 6 (46:08):
What is this?
Speaker 4 (46:09):
Tough forty something sway? Are you kidding me? Where's Tuan Hercules?
Word number? The song of the day coming up. I've
never played dire streets in twenty years. Up lose a clown.
